And we have a president that we don't even know if he's -- where is our president? We don't even know if he's a president.
DAVID MUIR: And just to clarify here.
They threw him out of a campaign like a dog. We don't even know, is he our president? But we have a president…
DAVID MUIR: Mr. President,--
…that doesn't know he's alive.
