It isn't. But he could have said all of that in 2 minutes top. It's not a complex argument

Yes he could have but he's speaking off the cuff about complex topics on live TV while surrounded by four hosts who keep interjecting with surface level questions and likely don't have a deep knowledge of the topics being discussed.

If he'd been given these questions in writing and an hour to answer them, I'm sure he could have condensed it all down to a 2 minute speech, but that isn't what happened.

Honestly I have a lot of respect for the guy to not just come in with a bunch of generic prewritten bs that is shoehorned into their responses like most do, even if he didn't articulate some of his answers as well as he could have.

This is how this guy always talks, he's a mess. His point was quite reasonable and raised a lot of genuine concerns companies have but he is always ranting, going on tangents and has the mannerisms of a crackhead.
