No way.

In the Illinois primary.

Did he write you a thank you note?

No, I didn't get a thank you.

He lost, so I guess.

So...

I, like everybody else in 2016, went through this ideological awakening.

And first I shifted to Trump.

And the first realization that I had is it started in 2016, actually, because the primaries, you know, started in 15, around April or May, I think, were the first announcements.

Yeah, yeah.

And I had very negative feelings about Trump.

And like I said, pro Rand Paul, pro Cruz.

But when the actual Iowa caucus happened and the primaries began, I saw that Trump was dominating.

And every night in the Super Tuesday, when they had all the big contests, one after the other, I remember the media was furious that he was winning one after the other.

And I remember thinking to myself, like structurally, if I'm a libertarian or a conservative and we want to change the country, we have to win elections.

If you want to win elections, you have to bypass the media.

I sort of had this realization that the media was really standing in the way.

They were the problem.

And I had this realization that all the conservatives and Republicans up to that point were afraid to take on the media.

They, like Mitt Romney, would cower before them and were so apologetic and so weak.
