Yeah, and look, I'm speaking to the Minnesotans. The reason, again, I want to be clear, the reason that the White House called and the reason that there's any change in tone is because Tens of thousands of Minnesotans endured 40° below zero temperatures. Minnesotans fed their neighbors. Minnesotans fought for what's right. So I understand that why they were meeting with us. And I am trying to negotiate in a normal world with these folks, knowing that that's not how they do things. (05:14–05:19)
