leaders are afraid to just say the thing.

but we don't want to say the honest thing in society,

and that is if you're gonna die, you're gonna die.

No, because I really think it is important

because death is a thing that terrifies many of us, right?

But if you have perspective in and around so many things

coronavirus has claimed 5,000 lives across the globe.

5,000 people across the planet right now.

So I'm not saying we want to be ignorant of all risk

but it's also like it would be good to have

a leader who can put things in perspective.

The problem with Trump is he's more worried

about how it affects the perception of him

good leadership is, you know what I'm saying?

Because a good leader would set expectations for a nation

The way I always think of it is like a pilot.

I love those, 'cause I get terrified when I fly,

"Hey everybody, so it's gonna be really bumpy

"There won't be any meals served for a while

"but I'm gonna try and get to the right altitude

And then when the bumps start you're like,

"Ah, this was the shit he was telling us about.

you're like, "Okay, okay, okay, okay, I get what ..."

But there's nothing worse than you're flying

and the pilot comes like, "Nothing to worry about folks."

And the pilot's like, "No, no, no, there's nothing wrong."

"Ladies and gentlemen take your seats please, we're fine.

But if you tell us ahead of time we get ready for it,

we buckle our seatbelts, everybody rides it out,
