You know, we've got horrible leadership in Los Angeles right now.

We have that fire.

You know, a woman who's our mayor who is very nice, but she has no idea what she's doing.

She's never run a business and she's running a budget of one of the biggest corporations in the country.

It's called L.A.

You know, it's the same with New York.

We've got a guy running for mayor here who's never run a – he's never had a job.

He's never had a job.

My thesis, which a lot of people in discussions, and I bring it up everywhere I go, I feel that if you're going to run in this country for mayor, governor –

president or vice president, you better have five years of having run a business, any kind of business.

You could have a mom and pop store with five employees, but something with a balance sheet, sales, marketing, healthcare plan, you got to know how to do it.

We have a mayor in LA that is not getting anything fixed.

And it's not...

She doesn't know how to.

She doesn't know how to.

And the city rejected a guy that ran for mayor that was a businessman because maybe he was too rich or his suits were too expensive.

But the guy was head of the police commission.

It's like we were talking at dinner last night in this city.

I can't understand any city that has a defund the police campaign.

Oh, yeah, that's insane.
