General Hughes, sir.
Hello.
Good afternoon, Mr. President.
Don, has Connolly used the Sequoia since he's come back?
I can't answer that, sir.
I don't believe he has.
We've offered it to him.
Yeah.
Well, make a special effort to see that it's offered to him.
Yes, sir, we do.
I know we're going to use it Thursday night or something like that.
Yes, sir.
But I mean, we're not going to offer it to them one night this week or next week.
Yes, sir, I'll do that.
Follow up to be sure that he knows that we want him to use it.
Yes, sir, you know we do that for that and Cam David, too.
I know.
I want him a little bit higher than some of the others, you know, because they only...
Oh, no, and they'll be bugging you for it, and he will not.
Well, he's the one we push on this.
Good.
All right.
And, sir, thank you for that phone call that Betty left.
Oh, well, sorry I couldn't be there.
We were up in Camp David.
Yes, sir.
Well, she really appreciated it, and I can't tell you how much I did.
Great party, yeah?
Yes, sir.
All right.
Thank you, sir.
And we will push Secretary Connolly all the time.
I want him to go.
Yes, sir.
