Patrick, I've been with Greg in a couple of moments on presidential campaigns.

0:08.6

One of them is one of the big four deadly quotes, right?

0:13.5

John McCain saying, you know, the fundamentals of the economy are strong as Lehman Brothers

0:20.2

collapsing in 2008, right, a memorable moment,

0:24.7

a memorable moment in that campaign.

0:28.2

When you look at Kamala Harris saying on the view, not a thing when the president's approval level is what it is, and you have a
