So, again, sometimes it's worth taking the risk to try.

Like, I think with...

the primary between Tallarico and Colin Allred, that's a good race.

Like we should be playing in Texas if for no other reason than for the down ballot effect, but also because Texas isn't that far away from flipping.

And in a race where people are turning against Trump and turning against MAGA, you could see Texas flip and that would be monumental.

I mean, it was unthinkable for Georgia to turn blue and we have two Democratic senators from Georgia right now.

Yeah, it's a big topic and I could spend all day talking about it.

So I think the first thing is we lack quality candidates who want to run for office, who want to get shit done and who know what they stand for.

The number of candidates that I talk with, many of whom I don't go to work with, who cannot articulate why they are running outside of it's my turn or somebody told me I'd be a good candidate for something and don't have like a firm grasp of who they are.

It is like – it really drives me crazy.

And that's why like my people will have heard me talk about Mallory McMorrow a thousand times.

Like I –

love Mallory McMorrow because she has a clear compass of who she is and what she cares about and what she's fighting for to the point where I work for her.

I might give her advice and she would go, that's not me.

I don't say that.

And I have lots of candidates that like, I can just like, I have candidates who I write stuff for who just say it and don't care what I wrote.

You know, they just move on.

They're like, oh, that's a good tweet.

Get it up.

And then they don't add their like flavor to it.
