Oh, Ray, I, uh, read the board and all the answers at this time.
I was wondering if you could put in a very brief paragraph, because I want to keep listening from the beginning.
Okay, good job.
I'm worried to say that in the next four years, the President of the United States or whoever is the President of the United States will be pushing the travel laws, pushing the major problems.
Again, we'll be pushing on a broad
I, uh, I, uh, nationally, nationally supported the American people.
I, uh, I, uh, if, uh, if, uh, if, uh,
.
.
.
.
.
You can work out a paragraph on that.
I thought I'd try to get this done this morning, as a matter of fact.
As a matter of fact, I've got a paragraph on that.
I don't have time.
Okay?
Fine.
Thank you.
I'm just going to be doing some of this.
Well, I may.
I don't know.
I'll see what I can do.
I don't think the car is disturbed.
These are rocks.
I want to hang where they are, but they are not going to have other people pressing through the rocks.
They don't even know the truth.
They'll just call me.
Okay, I'll start with the full schedule for tomorrow morning.
They really have some fans.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, all day.
That'll be 12, and then we'll have to do a great job in Wisconsin.
You know, Jason, if you decide to go to the match, yeah, don't worry.
I'll see you in Iowa.
Sure, sure.
Sure, sure.
Senator, you know the chances.
Sure.
We'll schedule those in the operator this time of day.
So they have a model backed up.
For instance, they have it backed up and then have somebody like Erling, Erling, on the phone, on the phone, on the phone.
He takes out the phone and says, this is John Erling.
President was talking at the present time to Blank.
So as he finishes up with him on the phone, so that they don't wait.
I'm just saying, sorry if you can't go ahead and have somebody else to take a look at the door.
Okay, my only thing is, I just want you to be able to send us essentially the same message to everyone, particularly if it's a candidate.
Like, throw it out.
Sure.
Just, you can just read it off as simple as you're here.
So he has to get rid of the chair, he has to endorse me, he has to get out of the boat, he has to cry, he has to get out of the house.
Okay, now you're going to put this, thank you for your offer.
Yes, sir.
It's, uh, it's very, uh, it's what I'm trying to do.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
