So when you are freaking out and you
are seeing some real horror scene here,
who do you talk to? You have a shrink?
No, I sort of talk to everyone and
people fill different needs for me.
There is no one person, Howard.
But also I'm more fundamental as a person,
especially the older I get.
Who's going to help you with the
problem that 700 people died yesterday?
No one can.
Have you cried during this? Yes.
Yes. At what point? I can't get
over the death numbers every day.
I can't and I can't rationalize it.
And the healthcare workers have been
heroic and have done great work and we
saved every life that we could because
the healthcare workers were great.
I can't get past the death numbers.
There's nothing that abates that pain.
Are you drinking at all? Not a drop
since this started. Nothing. Not a beer.
Not a beer. Oh no. I'm not
going to be compromised.
This is 24 hours a day and I'm not
going to be in a compromised position.
You know, I'm at that age where you
have a couple of glasses of wine.
You feel it the next day and I'm
not going to be diminished now.
I wouldn't do that.
Love that answer. Thank you, governor.
Thank you for your selflessness. Yup. Yup.
Robin's hitting the sauce very
heavily, but I'm very proud of you.
I'm drinking for both of us. Yeah. Look,
is there anything we can help you with?
That's what I want. I know
you have limited time,
so I don't want to run out without
saying that. I mean you, you know,
I don't know what the number one
problem is right now for you,
but is there anything
we can help you with?
You know, Howard, your voice,
Robin's voice is so important.
We're fighting a virus.
We're also fighting emotions.
People are frightened.
People are anxious, they're stressed.
It's unprecedented. You're at home,
you're trapped. You're afraid
to touch another human being.
You're not getting a paycheck.
The communication is as
important as anything else. Yeah,
I'm fighting the virus,
but more I'm fighting stress and
anxiety and this trust and depression,
so we are going to get through this.
That is the God's honest truth there.
We are going to get through this.
Thank you. That's all I'm going
to say. Thank you. That's it.
