“I have a range of scenarios. One of them is a chaos, that what could happen is Congress does step up a little bit and the administration is paralyzed. And we go through all kinds of constitutional crises, impeachment or the 25th Amendment removal process.

And people have privatized. You know, you can now, you don't have to go outdoors much, the whole world comes to you.”
