00:00What was your reaction when he said that the other night?
00:05I was aghast, to be quite honest with you.
00:07I wasn't looking for any kind of endorsement from anybody, especially him.
00:11But he is the president of the United States.
00:13There's a bit of flattery that comes with getting such words from the man who holds the highest office in the land,
00:19and I can appreciate that.
00:20But in the same breath, I'm saying to myself, you know what, evidently I'd have no chance,
00:25because if somebody like that is throwing out my name, clearly they'd think that, yeah, go ahead and do it.
00:30So we can beat you.
00:30We can romp you, too.
00:31So I'm not falling for it.
00:33It was nice.
00:34It was nice to hear, and I appreciated it.
00:36But obviously, it is what it is.
00:38I hear where he's coming from, but I wasn't thinking about it any more seriously than that.
