Man, oh man

I am not making this up He is literally doing arts and crafts while we are fighting a war and trying to deal with out of control prices Now, now, now look, I, I heard I, I heard the president was not happy when I I joked over the weekend that he's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a cheesecake factory And, and, and listen fir, first of all let me get this on the record I am the father of two daughters Do you think I could have survived their childhood without going to the cheesecake factory? I lived at Chuck E Cheese and California Pizza Kitchen And the Cheesecake Factory That was my jam for about a decade Of course, the real problem is price has gotten so high a lot of folks can barely afford to go out to eat So you would think that this administration be spending time worrying about that but That was the interesting thing about how the administration responded to the speech I gave the other day They did not dispute what I said about them being directly responsible for rising prices. They did not argue with that They did not deny terrorists were contributing to higher costs for families They didn't say anything about that I accused this administration based on the facts that they were engaging in unprecedented levels of corruption They didn't say anything about that The president wasn't even mad about the Saddam Hussein comparison That part didn't Bother him but he was very upset about the Cheesecake Factory comments He took great umbrage He said I didn't understand the work of the artisans in the White House And they mobilized, this, this is this was, this, I mean, it's all crazy but this was the really crazy part They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke Not to inflation, but to that joke The the White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury This is the man who is in charge of the economy the person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation and and reduce interest rates they told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory No, y'all didn't see this This really happened And the, and, and, and the Treasury Secretary he happens to be a former hedge fund manager worth half a billion dollars and he was out there in front of the Cheesecake Factory explaining how he ordered the delicious French dip cheeseburger instead of the egg rolls No, look, I this is not something I ever thought of Like, I inherited this major financial crisis I never called my treasurer secretary Tim Geithner, said, man you gotta go to Harvey's Order roast beef No cheese, though, that may look elitist
