I mean, like, you know, 300 to 10,000 people in a room, four times a day, 31 days straight. And it's sort of brutal. And at the end of it, you're like, I just sort of want to be done with it.”

“It was the guys like clout chasing on one side and then kissing your ass on the other. That I didn't appreciate. I had friends that didn't agree with a lot of what we were doing, but they'd still like, I'm writing a check to your campaign because I just believe in you. And even if we don't agree on much politically, like you're still a friend. And like, those guys are great.”
