And I just, I think that, yeah, I'm concerned about the deficit, the national debt like everybody else, but literally we've gone into endless wars, cut taxes for people who don't need it. I mean, people who are literally at the top. And meanwhile, Donald Trump has literally raised taxes for everybody else. And it's just interesting to me how Republicans don't even talk about the national debt when they're in charge, when they're in control. They control the White House, the Senate, the House and the Supreme Court. (10:15–10:20)
