I know you were involved in a debate, a ban the billionaires debate that you did very bravely.
I don't know if you can talk about it or not.
I know it was at a certain university.
I'll leave it at that.
But if you were willing to talk about it a little bit, I think it relates and dovetails quite nicely with what happened in New York.
And by the way,
I think the most important statistic since it's my hometown, I think a lot of New Yorkers don't fall for this kind of bullshit that he's spinning.
And if you look at the chart, if you can pull up the chart, Nick, of people who were born in New York, as opposed to people who've been there.
So if you look at that bottom one, I was born in New York City.
38% of those people went for Mondami and the other 60% went for the other two candidates.
But if you were there for less than five years or less than 10 years, 78 and 85% chance you voted for him
The people who were not born there, they fell for it.
This guy's a charlatan.
Nothing he says he's going to do is going to happen.
It's going to be total, complete, utter chaos.
Brad, your thoughts on what we're seeing, like bigger picture, not just what's happening in New York, but what you heard when you debated kids about ban the billionaires and socialists.
I think the person who wins 2028 is the person who puts as much energy into, say, building data centers or ballrooms as puts into building affordable housing.
That will be a great thing for somebody running in 2028 to champion.
It might also be there's the overlay sacks of Cuomo being me too'd as well.
So maybe some women didn't feel comfortable voting for him.
