That's interesting.
So there's an element there.
Last question before we wrap up.
I know we got a hard out.
President Trump intervening in California for the L.A.
fires, the wildfires, for permitting.
Your thoughts.
I mean, the challenge with California is 2,500 permits given so far.
That's 13% of the homes that have burned.
Permits are taking God knows how long.
Only 10 homes have been rebuilt from the fires.
So imagine he's sitting there saying, if you're not going to do it, I've got to come overlapping in Torino and expedite it.
It doesn't seem like Newsom cares, though.
That's not popular, though.
If you say that on CNN or MSNBC, God forbid that truth comes out.
It's a weapon for the president to use, though, right?
Because if the enemy uses it against us, I want him to have it.
My concern is if Supreme Court takes that away from him.
That power away from it, which he keeps bringing it up, which means they may do it.
They may say no, and then we lose the revenue that we're getting.
