And then I created the Midas Touch Network.

So my entire life, if you wanted to throw labels on it, my views and values would be viewed as like progressive if you were going to give it like a label.

But for me, it was always defending people who were being bullied and standing up for humanity and fighting for people and using my law background from Georgetown Law

and as a civil trial litigator to help people.

That's what I've tried to do my entire life.

And I was blessed to have a successful legal career doing that, which I turned into a professorship over at USC, where to this day, I still teach law at USC.

And then building this network with my brothers and with this great community here at the Midas Touch Network.

And so it's just, it's fascinating.

I never, when I was a lawyer, I never asked my clients, you know,

especially in Bakersfield, where there's a lot of people who are Republicans.

Are you a Democrat or are you a Republican?

I never viewed things in those terms.

When you watch my reporting on a day-to-day basis, it just, to me, is in line with what my career was before this, just standing up for human beings and standing up for common sense and empathy and leadership.

And

I'm not like randomly against Donald Trump because he's Trump.

I'm like, oh, I hate this guy named Trump.

There are a lot of billionaires out there who do bad things.

And there's a lot of people who do bad things.

And a lot of people, right?

You know, so why Trump?
