I think that the end of the year would be unfortunate to say how unfortunate, but I think it's very important for me to congratulate the United States.
Lots of good things.
And that's an additional note that I wanted to give to you.
The election is going to be very, very, very important.
It's going to be amazing.
It's going to be very, very, very, very important.
Thank you.
