And then politics ruined it.

That's right.

So my wife's from Southern California, San Diego.

And so we spent a fair amount of time there.

And I just, I mean, I still feel a certain sense of like heartbreak over L.A.,

Because every time I'm in L.A., you can see why this was like the quintessentially American city.

The architecture is beautiful.

It's got its own vibe going.

Like you said, the weather is amazing.

And then you drive through Skid Row and you're like, how could any state or any city let this happen?

OK.

So my first experience with Skid Row was – so Usha used to work at this like very fancy litigation firm in Southern California.

Before she was second lady, she was a corporate litigator.

So there's a Christmas party in downtown L.A.,

And you get these instructions from her firm and they're like this really convoluted way of this is how you have to get to this Christmas party.

And I'm like, why do I have to follow these directions?

Why don't you put it in Google Maps?

Right.

This is like five or six, seven years ago.

So we realize that the reason why they gave you these convoluted directions was so that you could avoid Skid Row at night.
