Give me another thing you have learned that you are going to adapt and change . Things go slower then you would like them to go. It just the system. Its a very bureaucratic system. Congress,e rules in in particular the rules in the senate are unbelievably archaic and slowmoving. In many cases, unfair. In many cases, you are forced to make deals that are not the deal he would make. You would make a much different kind of deal. You are forced into situations you hate to be forced into. , and this is very sad, we have a country we have to take care, the democrats have been totally obstructionist. Chuck schumer has turned out to be a bad leader, a badly here thethe company for country. All the democrats do is obstruct and delay, even our Supreme Court justice who i think is going to be outstanding, i think it was disgraceful the way they handled that, but i still have people and im waiting for them to be approved.
