EARLIER TONIGHT, YOU HOSTED A VIRTUAL FUNDRAISER FOR THE TWO

DEMOCRATIC SENATE CANDIDATES IN GEORGIA BUT I DO THINK IT PALES

I'M GLAD YOU MENTIONED THE 40s BECAUSE I'M ALSO 42, AND I DO

WONDER WHAT THE TIME IS, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW I SAY I'M 42, YOU SAY

I'M 42, I THINK IN ABOUT FOUR YEARS' TIME WE'RE BOTH GOING TO
