Maybe you're drinking, right? And you're sitting there and all of a sudden you're looking at your pistol or whatever it is. And then you need somebody to reach out to.

Maybe you have friends left in the military you can reach out to, hopefully. Maybe you don't. Maybe you're a Vietnam veteran. Right. Maybe you're an early Afghanistan veteran that's dealing with the fact that we left Afghanistan in shambles.

And when I decided to run, people were like, hey, we'll back you.
