What do you think is going to happen? You know, it depends on when. Democrats hate to put it this way. Sober up. Look, they're mad. And the bill that the House did pass. The House has passed a bill. It's still live over in the Senate. And a majority of the United States Senate favors that bill. 52 Republicans voted for it. One Democrat, John Fetterman from Pennsylvania, voted for it. But the Senate has a rule, you got to get to 60. So the Democrats are actually in the minority in both chambers in terms of this legislation. (05:02–05:16)
