[0:04] I told you.
[0:05] I told you.
[0:05] I told you.
[0:27] Absolutely.
[0:28] I think most of it jumped out.
[0:38] It will be gone like a scene on Monday.
[0:52] Saturday is something I'll have to accept, but I think it's interesting how you concentrate on those speeches.
[0:57] The following week, it seems, I'd like for you to see that this book, this book, has all the pending dates of those various announcements and all their plans.
[1:08] Okay.
[1:08] And make the date of, for example, Conway's broadcast.
[1:11] Whatever that's going to be.
[1:13] I don't know what all the campaign things, but that perhaps...
[1:22] Right, things that would affect whether or not I do a press name.
[1:27] Now, we decided we would not do a press name.
[1:32] That's the matter there.
[1:51] And Salt signing is on the third.
[2:04] Cozy speaks on the fourth.
[2:06] Terry Freeman on the tenth.
[2:18] We were telling them the press conference that day, tie it right to the trade agreement.
[2:24] But it would be there the 10th or 11th, but Boston is the 12th.
[2:29] Assault 2 is on the 16th.
[2:29] Security on the 24th.
[2:40] Security.
[2:49] Congressman Vaughn, I'm facing from the Texas Center.
[3:00] Go ahead.
[3:02] Let's do it again.
[3:03] I expect you haven't gotten any of it.
[3:08] Well, that's .
[3:09] New York is the second.
[3:20] New York, uh, New York 2nd, Ashland on the 3rd.
[3:25] Southern California suburb of New York.
[3:33] All right.
[3:33] Good.
[3:35] That's it.
[3:35] I have kindly read the suggested remarks on the thing.
[3:39] In fact, you might want to take a look at them before we get into the speech writing.
[3:43] Or maybe you don't even want to bother getting into the speech writing writing.
[3:47] You can just be using them for yourself.
[3:49] I think I'm just going to have to do something about it.
[3:52] The driver is apparently planning to have a beets and tamales dinner with some Mexican workers or something in Florida, South Texas that night to show the hearing of the fat cats and millionaires and the folks and everything.
[4:09] Which everybody thinks is going to backfire.
[4:13] a cheap shot for a guy that's supposed to be Vice President of the United States.
[4:23] It's gonna be hard to get away with it.
[4:31] Senator Benson and both Democratic Congressmen are going with us on the Texas trip.
[4:35] Sure, because we've got all the rest.
[4:41] But we've got to talk to God.
[4:42] He knows he's going to be with us.
[4:44] He's going to be with us all day this morning.
[4:46] So why don't you just stick around?
[4:51] I'll just finish this in a minute.
[4:53] Okay.
