I love my country.

Those are things that are more foundational.

Even some of those things can be taken from you.

But anytime you put your identity in something that can be taken from you, you're in trouble.

And I think a lot of these people...

They've never done anything really cool in their life or anything that they're super proud of.

Some of them have, but I think some of them get caught up in the, oh, I'm a congressman or oh, I'm a senator.

And they don't want to lose it.

They don't want to go back to just being a regular old civilian.

And they'll compromise everything they got.

I think our founders wanted us to go back.

you know, into public service and then, you know, go back home and go back to whatever you were doing beforehand and not become a career politician.

Yeah, for sure.

And then there was just a Senator that got like busted for having that jacket given to him with gold bars.

I mean, that's, that's extreme, but it even stuff like that happens.

Go ahead, Eli.

No.

I think we might have discussed this before, but I think the biggest thing with military guys, from my perspective, is—

We have courage.

A lot of us know how to think outside the box, I think, which most of us know how to play on a team.
