In the sense that you have a hard problem, then if you try to solve a hard problem, the likelihood of failure is great.
Whereas in the business world, if you're going after a hard problem, we celebrate those people, right?
We want our entrepreneurs and our great people to go after solving the big, hard problems.
But in politics, if you try to take on a hard problem,
You have a high likelihood of failure.
You'll get a lot of criticism on your pathway to trying to accomplish that if you fail.
And then if you fail, it has a higher probability of leading to you losing your opportunity to serve.
And so it's just one of these things where people want to play it safe, which is not the notion that really was taken during the time that President Trump was in office.
I don't think it has to be that way.
And that's, I think, one of the great lessons from the time of the Trump administration.

In D.C., they would stab you in the back.
And it just became a whole different dynamic of how you work through these different areas.
