You look at these numbers, Senator, and I go back to something that we mentioned earlier. There wasn't a single Democrat, if I'm not mistaken, that voted in favor of this. Right. They were all unanimously zero. Zero in the House, zero in the Senate. Yeah. So that was unanimous. The Democratic Party, and this should be a big issue. I think in the midterms, they wanted a $5 trillion tax increase on the American worker and they didn't want to pass no tax on tips. (15:14–15:17)
