Hi and welcome to prosecuting Donald Trump. It is Tuesday morning, August 13.

I don't want the summer to go, but okay, here we are.

Although I could do without the heat, honestly,

so that's the only good thing.

So I'm in the mountains where it's in the 50s at night and it's in the 70s during the day.

This is like a hill station where pre-air conditioning people would come up here to cool off and you know what it works. Yeah I'm surprised it still works though because a lot of places that don't have air conditioning are now realizing that doesn't work anymore.

Well, I'm the opposite.

I'm in North Carolina on Top Salt Island.

Actually, today is pretty temperate, but it has been hot. So I don't think we've mentioned who we are.

So if you are a new listener, which we love to prosecuting Donald Trump.

I am Andrew Weisman and I'm here with my co-host,

Perry McCorn.

Good morning.
