"Johnson said humans only developed language about 50,000 years ago. Then there was a quick aside about how Wisconsin was covered with a mile of ice back then, although it melted. Johnson quipped, “Now that’s climate change."

"Then Johnson came back with a different chart that showed a stack of $1 trillion in dollar bills would be 67,886 miles high. Then Johnson talked about stacks of bills to the moon. It was a little confusing and we didn’t understand all of it.

"We think the point we think he’s trying to make is that Democrats want to spend a very large stack of money over a very long period of time. The moon may or may not be involved."
