And so this has been Palantir's experience throughout.

Carp's view is like, he's kind of like the Jack Nicholson character in A Few Good Men.

It's just like, you may not like me, you may not respect me, but you need me.

And that's very much his attitude.

And I think he believes that whatever blowback Palantir might suffer if the Democrats come into power, it's not going to be enough to significantly hurt the company's government business.

The retribution will not be enough to really damage the company.

We'll see if he's right.

I don't know if he is.

I don't know.

It feels like there's a little hubris to that because it's interesting.

At some level, they're responsive to the criticism.

You can imagine a different world where Palantir wants to be as low profile as possible.

You don't have to imagine that, actually.

That was their policy for a long time.

Now you've got Palantir, huge advertisement during the Army-Navy game.

They're selling tote bags, Palantir.

It does feel like they're trying to brand themselves, and that could lead to backlash, right?

There's that.

And the other thing is, too, he is obviously very outspoken in a way that other tech executives aren't.

And this is very much a reflection of his personality.
