"Where're you going?" "Where're _you_ going?" "I was following you." "I was following _you."_ Two of the smartest people in the White House, ladies and gentlemen.

It's such a great joke, but I feel like they made it too early. Like, give people a season or two to get used to the walk-and-talks first.

They did the longest walk-and-talk on the show, if not the longest walk-and-talk in American TV, and parodied the walk-and-talk that they made famous, in the same episode. God, I love The West Wing.

After all these years I finally get the smoking jacket reference in Leo's office 😀🤣😂

Did anyone else ever pick up on how Josh literally Struts when he is walking the halls with others! He is Tony Manero walking down the sidewalk in the opening scene of "Saturday Night Fever" 🤣 And Josh does this through the whole series too!

But if they sold tickets to the meeting, would they have to disclose it?

You guys should really get someone to type up these captions. Josh is "going to see cats and more"? He's gonna catch a couple of Broadway shows?

All I wanna do now is find that scene and watch it again ;)

In that so our leaders are making well under 300,000$ per year, its confusing to see how they live lives of the 1%. I.E. You have a role that lasts 8 years, and you make about 200K per year, and you are raising two children. How do they end up building a home in Nantucket, and Hawaii while keeping a place in Washington DC.

The dollar sign goes in front of the number. People who reach high levels in politics are generally independently wealthy from other sources. Many of them are lawyers, for example, or business leaders with a vested interest in politics.

​@@beovp91 I'm not sure how you think those are examples. Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were both attorneys before entering politics. Clinton graduated from Yale law school and was attorney general for Arkansas, and Obama graduated from Harvard law school and was a civil rights attorney. Both of their wives are also attorneys. Attorneys make pretty good money.

Also, Presidents make $400,000 per year on their government income alone (up from $200k since 2001). Their DC residence and many (but not all) of their living expenses are provided for them while they're in office. Generally homeless people aren't elected to the presidency, so you probably shouldn't be surprised that they have another residence somewhere that they live in before and after their term in office. Rich people often have a vacation home too.
