I'm not saying it's true, but that's not why I'm making the point.

Trump's great strength and his great weakness is that he's always been a CEO.

And I say that because Biden was an extremely effective president in terms of the infrastructure bills that we passed, the climate bills we passed, the recovery from COVID, the way the economy turns around.

He got that done because he had a masterful understanding of how to get things through the Senate.

And I think that reads to the American people as being way down in process that I don't care about.

Why are we, why am I having to talk about what we did to make a compromise with Joe Manchin in order to get this thing through?

Compare that to Trump, who says, look, this is what we're going to do.

I don't care what happens.

I don't care what my favorability is.

This is where it's going.

And I think there's a forceful executive that we need in the White House that you just don't get there if all of your formative years are crafted in a legislative body, whether House or Senate.

We haven't had a leader of the Democratic Party with executive experience since Bill Clinton.

Right.

And the Republicans consistently nominate people with executive experience.

And, you know, when you look back, go back to your period in the 20s, you know, Roosevelt, Teddy Roosevelt walks into a room.

You are not under any confusion of who the top dog in this room is.

Donald Trump walks into a room.

You're under no confusion about who the top dog is.

Joe Biden walks into a room.

He's a nice guy.
