I think that was absolutely the right step, but then these bureaucracies in DC, they're not going to shut down once they basically get what they were fighting for. So they took money from pharma.

I mean, I mean, when you have schools are disaster, health is a disaster. Food is a disaster. And the gender transition issue. I mean, President Trump has just been stop it.
