How you doing?

Good morning, Mark.

Thank you.

We were talking about this meeting Kathy Hokel had with

Trump. You know, she brought him a little brochure she had made up about it. Does she realize

when your business is building a hundred-story building, selling a zillion dollar apartments,

your whole life you've made the most dazzling brochures in the world. How did she think she could

compete with that? You know, Mark, she is just a mystery to me. I mean, I don't, she's so transparently

incompetent and so small-minded. And her arguments are absurd. I mean, she's now fighting as though this is some kind of heroic battle to impose attacks on motorists,

many of whom are her own constituents because they live in the suburbs of New York,

whether it's Long Island or Westchester or Putnam

or further north even. And so it just, Rockland, of course, it makes no sense. And yet there she is

like she's some kind of hero for doing this. I mean, it's, it's wacky, and it's all out of desperation. She's trying to

act tough and show resolve to stand up for New York, but there is no New York. There's only New Yorkers,

and she's taxing them. And, you know, you'd mentioned the meeting with Trump.
