The economy is a disaster, and we know why.
It's because Donald Trump and Republicans don't give a damn about the personal finances of the American people.
Donald Trump said it, and he meant it.
We were in Washington, D.C.
It was also the congressional baseball game that day as well, the annual game for charity.
But I did watch the game, of course, with several other
new york members of congress and we were in agony uh... throughout the first half and then an ecstasy as the next made that historic run to come back and ultimately win tell the truth i mean i grew up as a knicks fan i begged the game because there's no way they could possibly win that game did you really think they could win that game you know it's interesting we thought it was possible i certainly thought it was possible in part because you know
Last year we came back in Boston, I think not once but twice, against Boston's full squad.
And so we had demonstrated resiliency last year, this very same team.
And then, of course, this year we had, I think it was game one against the Cavs when we came back over 20 points down in the middle of the fourth quarter.
And, of course, we've been down in this series nothing close to 29 points every other game.
and came back to win certainly in Game 1 and Game 2 and made it close in Game 3.
So there was what I would say is a modicum of hope that they could at least continue to cut the lead of the Spurs and maybe make it a game.
You know, I was watching that and saying to myself, they should just keep shooting because they were missing.
You know, I mean, the other thing, Tony, that was interesting.
During the first half, they were hitting everything.
