he's already said that multiple times. Which really aggravates me.
I know running is hard, but if you don't think you can beat Cornhole,
then why are you running for President?

I really like him, but I just think he should have tried again here in Texas.
Just my 2 cents.

I wonder what he'll do now. He's not a lawyer. Run their business again?
Speaker, write a book? Will be interesting to see.
