And it's a bit like, again, I go back to my business analogy, being a CEO is like a full contact sport. Being president of the United States is like some combination of wrestling, marathon running, you know, being a triathlete. I mean, you got to be at the serious physical shape and at the top of your game to represent this country. And he is a far cry from that. And it's just getting worse.

And it's embarrassing. And he cannot be. And by the way, every day he waits, he's handing the election to Trump. because it's harder and harder for an alternative candidate to surface. Now, Dean is the only candidate left on the Democratic side that can still win delegates. He's on the ballot in 42 states. And the best way for Biden to step aside is for Dean to show well in Michigan.

So what has to happen is New Hampshire, he went from zero to 20% of the vote in 10 weeks with no name recognition. I helped a little bit. Elon helped. We did spaces for him. We had 350,000 people on the spaces, some originally 40,000 live or something, and then the rest after. And then he was on the ground in New Hampshire.

And New Hampshire is one of the states where you don't need to be registered to a party to vote for that candidate. So it's like jump all. And he got 20%. And that's with a lot of independents and Democrats voting for Haley. Yeah. Um, Haley, who I like and who I've supported, uh, does not look like she's going to make it. Um, you know, Trump is really kind of running the table.

And so vote for Haley as an independent in Michigan, maybe throw away your vote. I think it increases the likelihood that Dean can get those independent votes. If he, he could theoretically, again, he needs, he needs money. He could beat Biden in Michigan. Biden's doing very poorly in Michigan. His polls are terrible. The Muslim community is not happy with him.

And he really has spent no time there. And so if he's embarrassed in Michigan, it could be a catalyst for him withdrawing. Then Dean will get funding. If he wins Michigan or shows well in Michigan, And people say he's viable. He's the only choice we have. He'll attract from the center.

He'll attract from people, Republicans who won't vote for Trump, which they're a big percentage, could be 60% or more. It could be 70% won't vote for Trump. And also from the Democrats. So I think he's a really interesting candidate, but we've got to get the word out.
