Josh and Leo in “Separation of Powers”

Josh

No, Leo, how is this acceptable? Haffley's not the prime minister, you take this to the president, you'll know what he'll say?

Leo

He'll say yes.

Josh

How can you say that?

Leo

To keep the lights on! To make sure a couple of million government employees keep getting paid. It's two more months...

Josh

This isn't governing, it's duck and cover.

Leo

He'll say that too.
