"Josh, you have to stop him. You're the only one who can."
"No, I can't."
"You're his Chief of Staff; his best friend. If there's anyone he'll listen to, it's you."
"That's exactly why I can't say anything."
"What? No! Josh, he's wrong. He's going to ruin everything that we've accomplished."
"Then we let him."
"Josh, you have to stop him."
"I took an oath, Brad, I serve at the pleasure of the president of the United States of America, the leader of the free world. I serve at the pleasure of President Sam Seaborn. Do you know what that means? It means that sometimes I support him even if he's wrong."
"Sir..."
"Even if he's wrong."
"Yes, sir."
"You think I'm wrong?"
"Mr. President?"
"Josh, do you think I'm wrong?"
"Yes, I do."
"I thought you agreed with me."
"I do."
"But..."
"It's a good bill, Sam. It's something this country needs, but we can't push it now. You know we can't. We're not strong enough. And if you push it now, we never will be."
"Why didn't you tell me that?"
"Because you wouldn't have listened."
"I'm listening now."
"Because I'm right, or because you know I'd walk through fire for you?"
"Right or wrong."
"Especially wrong."
"You're right, you know."
"I know."
"You weren't actually going to let me go out there tomorrow, were you?"
"What do I look like? A moron?"
"I get no support."
"Not in here, you don't. Out there, on the other hand..."
"Josh..."
"You're welcome."
"We did that?"
"Yeah, we did."
"It's not pretty out there."
"No, it's not."
"But it's good, right?"
"Yeah, Sam, it's good. We did something good."
"We really did."
"So, what's..."
"No. Wait. I want to enjoy this."
