RUSH EXCERPT:
BURNETT: “You shouldn’t. I want to emphasize what you said. This hits home. I grew up in a town about the size of yours. You are saying you got 5,000 people in a couple days coming into a city of 28 to 30,000 people. That’s 15% of your population. How do you even manage such a thing? My understanding — tell me if I’m wrong — there’s more coming where they came from.”
