it's not as if he was asking for free chick-fil-a for life. he made a phone call because his wife wanted to purchase a franchise. that he needs to make some of these headlines go away and not have some come up. these are goofy. you can't send staffers on these runs for you. you're going to have a higher degree of scrutiny at this level and the administrator has to be extra careful. >> of course i want to get you to jump in, but on the money issue, put g-7 aside. he's spent like double what they've spent previous epa administrators have spent on an annual basis. and that trip that people say he spent less than mccarthy, she brought a much larger contingent of her staff. the campaign campaigned on draining the swamp. he is the swamp. i don't understand why the president can't say we don't ak ceme accept that. i'm sorry, but calling when you are a cabinet member calling and say, oh, my wife would like a chick-fil-a franchise, that's not acceptable. it's using your power. >> joan, people buy chick-fil-a franchises every single day. >> but not as a
