Parking is expensive. Driving is expensive.
Going and have to face your elected leaders
face to face is scary as well.
A lot of people, I'm going to be completely straight with you.
A lot of people assumed you might have had
a drink before you did that interview. Did you?
I, of course, lied. I had a beer.
One beer? I mean, maybe a couple.
How many beers did you have?
I was nervous, okay?
I get it.
I thought I was going to win with the full Republicans.
We've all had a drink when we're nervous, but just to be clear,

All right, three.
Three beers.
Okay, well, it's trebled in the last 30 seconds.
