right. Let me ask you why would you ask
me that? Uh
cuz I want to know where you're from.
Why would you ask me that? Just curious.
no. No, I I want to What's that got to
do with me? I mean, it's just a basic
simple question. No, I just because
the fact that you would ask me that
question I'm sorry, I was just
wondering. I know, this is important.
The fact that you would ask me that
question and you would want to know
where I'm from, like the fact that you
think that that has something to do with
this dinner
that has something to do with this date

from. You need to ask yourself where
you're from. The fact that you would be
suspicious of me and have to interrogate
me as to where I'm from. Being obsessed
with people's places of origin and not
with their ideas and what they want to
do to make this country better. That's
the problem in our country and in our
politics. Okay, I'm literally just
asking where you're from. You know what?
You know what? I'm not I'm not going to
keep doing this. I'm not going to keep
playing this gotcha game with these
questions. A basic question. So why
don't you tell me where are you from?
New Jersey.
Oh. Yeah, Asbury Park.
See, not so hard. Huh.
