Well, we'll see.

I understand that skepticism.

I think it's it's warranted, to be honest.

And the truth is that the Republican Party in California historically in the recent history has not done itself favors.

you know, running on certain cultural issues versus running on policy, running the wrong way.

Well, yeah, because people have gone to their corners.

And to be honest, though, I love Arnold.

I mean, I love him as a guy.

But there are certain policies that have led us in the wrong direction.

I mentioned the climate regime.

That was his policy, right?

Well, he's the one who, you know, I think he figured out early on he wanted to be known as a climate governor.

And I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

We have the best environmental laws on the books of any state.

We should enforce them.

The environmental movement started here in the 70s.

That was a good thing.

The problem is it was perverted and hijacked in law de facto to block a lot of good things, a lot of growth and housing and energy production that we need while we figure out how to protect the environment.

So I think it kind of got perverted unintentionally.

But you ask, how do you win?
