I see it in small business growth in a state that has the highest unemployment and the lowest rate of new small businesses and to modernize the services the state delivers.

I want us to be a place where when we say it's the fourth largest economy in the world,

that it's not just a stat, that it means something.

And that you feel like you're a shareholder in that.

And that every person in the state, not just the tycoons, not just the CEOs, but everyone in the state has skin in the game.

And so that's my goal as governor, is to economically grow the state, modernize the services, max out democracy.

But on the first part that I said,

I'm the only candidate in the field who's in the arena right now.

And I don't have to put an exclamation point on what I will do to be a fighter and protector on behalf of the most vulnerable.

I was an impeachment manager against Donald Trump.

I am a former prosecutor.

I helped lead the Russia investigation.

I've got the only surviving lawsuit against this guy for what he did on January 6th.

So I know how to take this guy on.

I think I'm just wired that way.

And I see him as a corrupt actor.

And I'm not going to let him go through me to hurt the most vulnerable in California.

And so that's the goal for the first two years.

But to be optimistic enough to see beyond him and understand that there's so much more to California than just being attacked by this guy.

Yeah.
