Well, actually, he followed my political career pretty closely.
He studied what I did as mayor of Burlington back in the 80s, the campaign that I ran.
Yeah, so we chat every now and then.
I am extraordinarily impressed by his energy, his intelligence.
He has a really good persona.
He's out there with the people, and I think he's going to do a really great job for the city of New York.
What does it mean to be the establishment?
The establishment means in a corrupt political system.
If you're the establishment, what you do is you leave this, you get on the phone, and you talk to your billionaire friends and say, look, I'm setting up a super PAC.
I want your help to win the congressional race in Arizona and California.
I want you to put in $30 million each, okay?
I'll have $300 million.
Ten of you put $300 million.
I get the ads going next week.
We're in business, right?
That's the way the system works.
And every now and then you have somebody like Mamdani who comes along and says, I don't want your money.
Not only do I not want your money, we're going to take you bastards on.
