To go after trump.

As an individual contributor, he can only contribute so much to the campaigns of candidates running.

There’s a lot of rules on spots attacking candidates from individuals.

As a candidate he can flood the airwaves with attacks on trump.

So far, everything I’ve seen from him is him going after trump and not our primary candidates.

Kind of hoping that catches on with the rest of our field.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
