Royce White

Thanks for having me, man.

I mean, yeah, it's an undertaking, no doubt.

All of the grassroots people are the people who come from outside the machine that want to challenge these deeply entrenched incumbents like an Amy Klobuchar or Tina Smith.

She's

not going to run for reelection for her seat but still it's it's the democrat seat and uh it's it's an uphill battle obviously they got more money than midas all of the mainstream media is pretty much still in lockstep although that's starting to change via podcast and alternative media but it's still a heavy heavy lift yeah you got the money against you you got all their connections against you right

You got infrastructure, too.

I mean, the biggest thing that I've learned so far is, one, a lot of candidates will run a race and then they'll lose on the first go around just because of name recognition.

Everybody, you know, you may think you're popular.

Let's even say you were an ex-athlete or you were a high powered attorney or whatever, wherever you came from.

People may know you, but do people know you across an entire state of four million voters?

I mean, that's a big difference.

And there's a lot of people who aren't as tuned in to the, you know, to the wavelength and mainstream media as we would even think.

And so, you know, people will run, they'll lose and then they'll quit.

They'll be like, oh, I'm done.

Anybody who thinks that we can take one shot at these incumbents, especially in these deep blue states like Minnesota, California, New York, or what have you, is mistaken.

Or they're in it just for the money, which is another issue.

Well, I think people have to view United States Senate races as national races, every single one, because 100 U.S.

senators decide the legislation and laws in this country.

So I don't really talk about Minnesota issues.

I think global issues affect the local and vice versa.
