cover what I'm saying? Summary dismissal. That might be exactly the thing, right? Summary, I guess that just means it's so weak a case it's ridiculous, right? Somebody's going to paste the summary dismissal. Well, I see it in the context of a job. All right, I've only seen it in employment. What is summary dismissal by a lawyer? Okay, it would be responsive motion for summary judgment. Jury nulli…

But the people have complete power in this country. We're not Australia. In Australia the government has power over the people. Not here. Not here. Not ever. Not here. Not ever. In America the people control the government, and it's time to exert that control now. Probably it'll just be the 2022 election. Could be protests or something. But we have mechanisms in place. But now it's time.
Now if you think that I'm telling you you should elect Trump, I'm not. I'm not. I'd like to see who's running. If you think that I will uncritically support Trump if he gets into the race, you're wrong. Because if DeSantis is in the race, I'm probably going to back him. Sorry. Now if Trump wins the primary, I probably will back him. But Republicans, you need to get your house in order. What you want to do, I'm not a Republican. I won't advise you. But I'm just saying DeSantis is looking really strong. Trump is stronger on a lot of things, I think, but also brings some controversy. And he's also of a certain age, and maybe change is necessary. On the other hand, Trump is probably the only personality who can do some of the things that need to get done. Like he can go further against China, for example, I think, than maybe somebody else could. So Trump has big benefits but also big costs. And I've always said he's an expensive president, but you get your money's worth.
Trump's a better story. That's correct. Yeah, if you do the prediction that the better story always wins, it's definitely a Trump comeback. Definitely. Now I could definitely support Trump from the get-go if I thought maybe he'd changed some of his approach or changed his priorities or something. I could be convinced, but not right now.
What if Trump pivots to the kinder, nicer lame duck version of himself? Now here's another thing. Do you want to elect a lame duck president from the start? And I don't know. That sounded rhetorical, but I don't know the answer. Because normally the second term of a president can be a little dicey because everybody knows they're on the way out. If Trump is elected, it's the second term. So he's a certain age and he's sort of on the way out. DeSantis would be a first term president with another term to go. So if you wanted to hold power for longer, DeSantis is a better bet because Trump could easily turn the country, slip the Congress back the other direction just because people get worked up about him.
No way in hell would I vote for Scott. Am I running? Better to have Trump as vice president? Now that if you want Trump to ha

When I had my product, it got placed into 7-Elevens, which is a gigantic break for a new food company. We actually got shelf space in 7-Elevens. And then when we went to check to see how it was doing, we coul…
