  • So we are layered to the hilt, like five layers.

  • Wool socks, double socked, thermal underwear, two hats.

  • Cuz we're going to spend a lot of this day outside.

  • There it is.

  • Yeah.

  • Oh, that's a beautiful view.

  • I am staring at the dome and because it is so bone chillingly cold,

  • They're having tea.

  • They're going to come in a motorcade together to the Capitol.
