Yes, it was a nine to zero. In our favor. In our favor against the district court ruling.

Unfortunately, over the last few weeks, I've had no choice but to get a bit more serious about it. I've been approached by people on Capitol Hill. I've been approached by people who are elected officials in office, whether it's governors or mayors or what have you. And people have legitimately and seriously asked me about that.

And I'm not playing. I just think that it's a mess right now. I'm not scared.

Well, we can just watch this. I am pleading with LeBron James as a father. Stop this. Stop this. We all know that Bronny James is in the NBA because of his dad. And I turn around, and he's right here in my face. He said, yo, you got to stop talking about my son. You got to stop with my son. That's my son. That's my son. And I was like, what?

Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm a moderate. I'm a centrist. And I'm the kind of person that, do I believe that if I committed myself to knowing politics the way you and others know it, do I believe I could win a Democratic nomination? Hell yes.
