My dad came from Cuba in 1962, three weeks before the Cuban Missile Crisis, fled communism.
My mom, her folks were from the New York area.
One of my great grandparents was a maid at the Dakota Building here in Manhattan.
And these two families came together and
there I popped out and I went to the White House and gave Donald Trump a hell of a fucking time.
And I'm not saying that I'm exceptional or anything like that, but it's exceptional that something like that can happen in this fucking world.
And when I saw CBS doing that, I said, what the fuck is going on with these people?
What we should be having in this country is a free press that can hold the goddamn president of the United States accountable without everybody worried whether they're going to lose their fucking job.
You can't have a situation like that in this country.
And that is why things like what we're doing right now is flourishing and thriving.

They can see the pandering and the nonsense.
