Mark Halperin

All right.

And is that because as chair you feel you need to not prejudge anything?

Look forward to it.

Another person who's going to be up for confirmation soon as the president's nominated to be chair of the Fed, Kevin Warshue, and your father as well, have all long been interested in the Federal Reserve and the role it plays in our country and our economy.

How are you feeling about his possibility of becoming the Fed chair?

Would he be more in line, less in line with your views than the current Fed chair?

Yeah.

How's the economy in Kentucky going right now?

So that's a drag in your view, I take it, on the economy.

But how is the economy overall with all the other factors, not just tariffs?

Is it growing?

Is it going well?

Are people happy with the economy?

Or do they have concerns not about the tariffs, but about the overall well-being of the families?

I saw in a recent interview you suggested your party might do poorly, maybe very poorly in the midterm elections.

What would doing poorly look like to you?

Again, if you want to warn your party, what does the worst case electorally look like in November from your point of view?

All right.

That's how you see the House.

What about your own chamber?
