Eli Doubletap

He was in a very, very serious scandal where he pressured a subordinate, uh, into a sexual relationship.

Can't do that.

That's not good.

And then afterward, basically broke up her home to the point where she committed self-immolation.

It was a wild story.

The entire thing was wild.

And then he lied to cover it up.

He lied the entire time, lied to media, lied to the voters.

And then...

So we shellacked him on Tuesday, but neither one of us got above 50%, which means in the state of Texas, you have to go to then a runoff election.

So there were four people in the race.

We were both in the 40s.

We beat him, but not by enough to take it outright.

And then two days later, so I'm expecting to go into a three-month runoff election, like another election, which I was pretty confident we were going to win.

Two days later, he announced he was dropping out.

Yeah.

I was sitting at my, my house bar playing blackjack with, with Connor.

We're just like screwing around, like just, you know, trying to like decompress a little bit, like, okay, we got a big fight to, to win.

It's like 11 o'clock at night.

And then I just get my phone.
