It's episode 226 of Share the Struggle Podcast and I am back with your weekly fix.
00:00:06.633 --> 00:00:14.894
Actually, I might need a fix because I am more nervous than a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs.
00:00:14.894 --> 00:00:17.628
I think that's what old folks in the South say.
00:00:18.089 --> 00:00:26.594
I think I've heard that somewhere Long-tailed cats in a room full of rocking chairs, something like that, long-tailed cats in a room full of rocking chairs, something like that.
00:00:26.594 --> 00:00:28.678
I'm nervous, y'all I am nervous.
00:00:28.678 --> 00:00:49.024
I am doing something that I said I wouldn't do and that is attempting to record a podcast during live election results, the fate of this country, the direction of America and the future for all of us, and to me, most importantly, the future for all of us and to me, most importantly, the future.
00:00:49.024 --> 00:01:06.953
The little miss paisley reign weighs in the balance of what's happening tonight and we are going to react to this live and do the best we can to jump, juke and jav our way through number 226 on the consecutive streak of Share the Struggle podcast.
00:01:06.953 --> 00:01:10.168
Let me tell you something Everybody struggles.
00:01:10.751 --> 00:01:15.685
The difference is some people choose to go through it and some choose to grow through it.
00:01:15.685 --> 00:01:18.109
The choice is completely yours.
00:01:18.109 --> 00:01:23.989
Which one you choose will have a very profound effect on the way you live your life.
00:01:23.989 --> 00:01:34.185
If you find strength in the struggle, then this podcast is for you.
00:01:34.185 --> 00:01:38.612
Do you have a relationship that is comfortable with uncomfortable conversations?
00:01:38.612 --> 00:01:46.051
Uncomfortable conversations challenge you, humble you and they build you.
00:01:46.051 --> 00:01:48.141
When you sprinkle a little time and distance on it.
00:01:48.141 --> 00:01:49.343
It all makes sense.
00:01:49.343 --> 00:01:54.493
Most disagreements, they stem from our own insecurities.
00:01:54.493 --> 00:02:08.498
You are right where you need to be Back on time reading the black words.
00:02:08.498 --> 00:02:15.465
The whole day gone running behind Oop, oop, oop, oop.
00:02:15.465 --> 00:02:19.549
What it do, what it do, what it hot and did it do.
00:02:19.549 --> 00:02:25.014
I am so excited to be back with you.
00:02:25.014 --> 00:02:27.836
Oh, it's true, it's damn true.
00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:36.787
We are shooting this episode of the podcast with live up to the minute election results on the big screen here.
00:02:36.787 --> 00:02:49.954
By the time this podcast is complete, by the time it drops into your little download button, by the time Share the Struggle podcast is loaded up on all the major podcasting platforms.
00:02:49.954 --> 00:02:54.170
With any luck, we will have an answer.
00:02:54.170 --> 00:03:03.413
We will know our next president of the United States of America and I hope that president is the same as the 45th president.
00:03:03.413 --> 00:03:05.448
Let's go 45 and 47.
00:03:05.448 --> 00:03:10.472
Let's keep America alive and let's make it great again.
00:03:11.121 --> 00:03:15.867
Am I supposed to sugarcoat my feelings and hide what I'm truly hoping and praying for?
00:03:15.867 --> 00:03:54.364
Because I've already blown that out the door, because I am on here with a hot mic and I'm already expressing my true feelings, emotions, man, this is a time, this is an incredible time in this country and it is something that I don't know if I've ever had a more anxious couple of hours for something that is just like completely out of your control, that you just think about the major impact that the next few hours is going to have on the next so many years in this country.
00:03:54.364 --> 00:03:55.907
This is crazy.
00:03:55.907 --> 00:04:11.525
This is a wild, wild time and thankfully I'm not going it alone tonight because thankfully I have my lovely, beautiful wife by my side over there across the room Getting ready to chime in.
00:04:11.825 --> 00:04:13.450
Hey y'all, it's me.
00:04:15.021 --> 00:04:22.545
It's a different election for us this year, and I think that I mean it's a polarizing election for everybody.
00:04:22.545 --> 00:04:41.050
But this year it's a little different because we just spent a few hours at my mom's house, sitting on the couch next to my mom, and on the couch there's you, me and little Paisley, sitting right between us, sitting up like a grown-up, propped up, like a big girl, watching the election results.
00:04:41.050 --> 00:05:10.639
And you can't help but just think about the impact that this already has on our two-month-old daughter, because the next four years can play a major impact on her life, on the direction, on the future, because the next four years, I don't think the decision tonight, I don't think there's ever been a time in our US history where the results of an election could really sway the direction of this country.
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:25.117
I mean, we changed traumatically in the past four years, but giving another four years to this administration, to this current regime, I don't know if we will recognize America.
00:05:25.117 --> 00:05:30.091
I don't know if this would be the same place in four years.
00:05:30.091 --> 00:05:59.730
So I'm just going to say this we were just having a conversation, that we took a little break today and we ended up at a local store and you were just having a conversation with me while we were pushing record on how you didn't feel comfortable in that store because there was three suspicious individuals walking around just doing shady stuff, which just happened to be like in every aisle you were in yeah, just kind of tracking me and
00:05:59.831 --> 00:06:01.035
it was just like really weird.
00:06:01.035 --> 00:06:03.161
Like I just, you know, caught on to it.
00:06:03.161 --> 00:06:24.187
I had the baby with me, which I I tend to pay attention to my surroundings in general, even like before the baby, but I just happened to notice that these two gentlemen were in aisles that like they didn't need to be in, like I'm looking at like little baby children's toys, like why are you in this aisle?
00:06:24.187 --> 00:06:51.249
Like I mean, maybe you have kids at home, but like you were just in like the men's section and like I don't know, it just didn't give me good vibes and I was just like thankful that I was there with you, because the simple fact that like I was there at the pretty close to closing, like we were there and I mean, what was your ML Like, were you planning on following someone to their car?
00:06:51.249 --> 00:06:52.543
Like I have a baby?
00:06:52.605 --> 00:06:55.666
They were shady, they were looking at ridiculous things.
00:06:55.747 --> 00:06:56.329
Yeah, yeah.
00:06:57.701 --> 00:07:02.367
One of them, I think, was with him there was a large fella on his phone.
00:07:02.408 --> 00:07:03.331
Three of them, yeah.
00:07:04.141 --> 00:07:05.228
And he was just scanning the place on his phone.
00:07:05.228 --> 00:07:08.725
Three of them, yeah, and he was just just scanning the place on his phone the whole time and having conversations.
00:07:08.725 --> 00:07:09.107
It was just.
00:07:09.608 --> 00:07:35.192
It was just strange you could tell the three of them were kind of working yeah in conjunction over something and I had actually like was standing looking at stuff um, and I like turned around to like one of the um shelves and it was just like honest instinct that I like grabbed not only the cart but I grabbed a hold of the baby carrier oh yeah like I, I don't know.
00:07:35.274 --> 00:07:39.485
It was just like an instant, like mom reaction, like that.
00:07:39.485 --> 00:08:11.230
I grabbed, not the cart right, but like if something was to happen, like they decided to take my cart or something, like I have a hold of the baby, like, but as I like turned and did that, um, one of the guys that was standing at the end of the aisle that I was looking at stuff had yelled to his buddy, who was a couple aisles over, to come over and also look at random like tchotchkes that were like why are you looking at these things like breast pumps and stuff like I don't know?
00:08:11.350 --> 00:08:11.451
it.
00:08:11.451 --> 00:08:29.735
Um, it's crazy because you know you think about not feeling safe and then you think about now not feeling safe and having a newborn, and those are some of the things that I truly feel are on the line with this election because, I've never felt less safe in our own state than we do now.
00:08:29.935 --> 00:08:30.156
Yeah.
00:08:30.740 --> 00:08:34.471
And I'm sure that that statement is echoed throughout the country.
00:08:35.580 --> 00:08:35.659
Yeah.
00:08:35.659 --> 00:08:40.011
I mean our crime rate has gone up Absolutely Drastically.
00:08:40.011 --> 00:08:42.888
This is something totally random.
00:08:42.980 --> 00:08:46.486
I don't want to go totally off topic here, but it was a couple weeks ago.
00:08:46.486 --> 00:08:50.461
We were leaving an appointment and you had made mention to um.
00:08:50.461 --> 00:08:58.542
There was a bus like a uh city bus I don't know what you call the like city transportation, but yeah city bus.
00:08:58.542 --> 00:09:05.553
They always have like a marketing ploy on the side of the bus where it's like you know this real estate agent or this credit union.
00:09:05.553 --> 00:09:11.711
They were now fully wrapped advertising for Narcan.
00:09:11.711 --> 00:09:17.150
Yeah, remember that it was a Narcan bus driving around Biddeford, Maine.
00:09:17.941 --> 00:09:21.530
What the hell is going on when we have to market Narcan.
00:09:21.530 --> 00:09:24.769
It is out of control.
00:09:24.769 --> 00:09:37.812
But when I think about the impact of this election and we're talking about safety I'm thinking about a newborn baby and the safety in this country and in this state over the course of the next four years All things to think about.
00:09:37.812 --> 00:09:42.772
That, for the first time in my life, I have to think about, and that's the same thing for you.
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:48.207
This is not something that we considered or thought about during elections.
00:09:48.207 --> 00:10:00.693
I also used to always say as a kid, you know what, it doesn't really matter who gets elected, because I felt like Maine was so unplugged from everything.
00:10:00.693 --> 00:10:02.443
We were so far away from everything.
00:10:02.443 --> 00:10:03.727
It feels like.
00:10:03.727 --> 00:10:08.028
As a kid growing up it was like there's a tornado, there's a hurricane.
00:10:08.028 --> 00:10:09.471
It's never going to happen in Maine.
00:10:09.471 --> 00:10:10.942
It's so far away, it doesn't mean nothing.
00:10:10.942 --> 00:10:16.602
If there's any kind of bad, crazy violence, it ain't going to happen up here.
00:10:16.602 --> 00:10:18.690
Mass shootings not going to happen up here.
00:10:18.690 --> 00:10:23.532
The cause and effect of a president it took us years to feel it up here.
00:10:23.532 --> 00:10:32.559
We didn't know what was in and out of style for four or five years up here, right, we were so untouched with everything Music yeah everything right.
00:10:32.780 --> 00:10:35.288
We always felt behind the eight ball.
00:10:36.321 --> 00:10:44.259
Because by the time we got the trends and got the foods and stuff, it was already so outdated, Gone.
00:10:44.259 --> 00:10:47.549
People are like why are you dabbling in this?
00:10:48.441 --> 00:10:50.765
As a kid I always felt like we just weren't affected by things.
00:10:50.765 --> 00:10:53.727
That has never been so further from the truth.
00:10:53.727 --> 00:11:04.019
Now we are extremely impacted by those things and we are so impacted by the presidential election, the direction of this country.
00:11:04.019 --> 00:11:19.615
We're so impacted by it that we have had a multitude of conversations to the fact that if Kamala Harris were to win the presidency, that I would consider closing my business.
00:11:19.615 --> 00:11:24.965
And we've had this conversation several times leading up to this.
00:11:24.965 --> 00:11:48.730
Because you start to think are you still a proud American in this country, if this is what's happening in this direction that we're headed and all the unknown, can you still be proud American?
00:11:48.730 --> 00:11:54.176
We might be quiet, depressed American, you know, because I was starting to be a little suspicious.
00:11:55.116 --> 00:11:55.677
Good Lord.
00:11:55.677 --> 00:12:33.159
And leading up to this, I mean we had these thoughts coming through 2020, right when we had all the social unrest, the riots, the looting, the pandemic, the election, all those things we as a family discussed the direction of our family and our business and decided it was crucial for us to continue on Loud, proud, american, because we felt that it was never more important in this country to be a proud American than during these just wild and crazy times.
00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:36.429
You needed to be a proud American.
00:12:36.429 --> 00:12:48.705
You needed to be willing to be loud about your beliefs, remain proud in your country and in your freedoms and have a willingness to stand for it and to express it and to share it.
00:12:48.705 --> 00:12:53.173
Because, just like this podcast, share the struggle.
00:12:53.173 --> 00:13:02.509
You need to share your, your, your strengths and your journey and your failures and your ups and your downs, because there's strength that comes from sharing those things.
00:13:02.509 --> 00:13:19.070
That if we were willing to be proud Americans and tell everybody else that we are proud Americans, that we would give somebody else the courage to be a proud American and we would continue to double down on American jobs, on American manufacturing and trying to make this country great again.
00:13:19.070 --> 00:13:27.851
And we felt that we needed to continue on as loud, proud American and that's the plan and that's the motive, motive and that's what we want to continue to do.
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:33.513
But it's a scary, scary time if it doesn't go the way that we are praying for it to go.
00:13:33.513 --> 00:13:52.027
We're taking all steps to hope and pray and to proceed in the direction that things are going to go the way we want them to go, so much so that we are working on some major milestone moves, steps and just changes here for Loud, proud American.
00:13:52.027 --> 00:14:00.912
I'm not ready to share those things yet, but as we are on the verge of five years in business, we're coming up on our anniversary.
00:14:00.912 --> 00:14:10.673
On our anniversary as we approach five years in business, I have together you, me, even my mom, having these conversations.
00:14:10.673 --> 00:14:16.726
We are doubling down on growth and taking a big leap.
00:14:16.726 --> 00:14:20.246
That we feel is a big leap personally for our family and our business.
00:14:20.246 --> 00:14:39.250
But so much of that is just really hinged on what's happening tonight I thought you meant our anniversary, like our anniversary, because that's coming due that is true, that is true the day after I go back to work, though yeah, you are going.
00:14:39.269 --> 00:14:39.850
What is that?
00:14:40.051 --> 00:14:40.251
art.
00:14:40.251 --> 00:14:41.760
Is that our 10-year anniversary?
00:14:41.760 --> 00:14:43.445
Oh my god y.
00:14:44.927 --> 00:14:45.490
I think it is.
00:14:45.490 --> 00:14:49.147
You know what You're talking about dating anniversaries, right?
00:14:49.147 --> 00:14:53.229
Yeah, I think it's actually going to be our 11th.
00:14:54.400 --> 00:14:55.385
We missed the 10?
00:14:55.419 --> 00:14:59.225
I think we Didn't we start dating on like 11, 12, 13?
00:14:59.265 --> 00:15:01.251
We sure did yeah, yeah.
00:15:01.251 --> 00:15:03.390
So this is Are you kidding me?
00:15:03.390 --> 00:15:03.812
It's crazy.
00:15:03.852 --> 00:15:04.576
Yeah, yeah, so this is, are you?
00:15:04.596 --> 00:15:04.798

00:15:04.798 --> 00:15:05.139
It's crazy.
00:15:05.139 --> 00:15:09.879
Wow, you really do kind of like me.
00:15:10.660 --> 00:15:12.783
Yeah, I didn't like that noise.
00:15:12.783 --> 00:15:16.149
That thing lingered in my headset over here for the longest time.
00:15:16.369 --> 00:15:18.231
Oh, it's probably going to linger on the people's radio.
00:15:18.491 --> 00:15:19.153
Well, you know.
00:15:19.494 --> 00:15:21.803
Wake up when in Rome.
00:15:21.803 --> 00:15:25.399
Good morning America.
00:15:26.384 --> 00:15:26.986

Yes, it is no, no, no.

Just scale it back right now, okay, Okay let's see, that was a dating anniversary.
00:15:56.592 --> 00:15:59.368

It's aluminum.
00:16:00.873 --> 00:16:03.273
Perfect, I got a bunch of that to haul to the scrapyard actually.
00:16:04.426 --> 00:16:07.254
Tin or aluminum, perfect, that was 10 years.
00:16:09.164 --> 00:16:15.514

00:16:16.447 --> 00:16:17.471
I'm sorry to break the news to you.
00:16:17.471 --> 00:16:19.552

I'm not up with the times.
00:16:25.807 --> 00:16:26.289
I'm a traditionalist.
00:16:26.289 --> 00:16:26.974

Nothing about that is accurate the next milestone anniversary is 15 years okay remember back in the day when you actually liked me and we used to talk about throwing a party at 10 years.
00:16:49.326 --> 00:16:51.514
We have not been married for 10 years.
00:16:53.429 --> 00:16:54.192
I know this.
00:16:54.192 --> 00:17:00.758
I'm aware what I was going to say before I was rudely interrupted.
00:17:00.758 --> 00:17:05.310
I was going to say that I don't even like people enough to want to have another party.
00:17:05.411 --> 00:17:10.819
Oh my God, there goes our listeners, they're gone.
00:17:12.085 --> 00:17:13.672
Oh, Trump just took Texas.
00:17:13.672 --> 00:17:18.815
No, that was hours ago, oh well, I'm only seeing it now, so it just happened.
00:17:20.165 --> 00:17:21.009
Trump took Texas.
00:17:21.009 --> 00:17:32.250
I mean, think about it, Our favorite places to go, Texas and Tennessee called early for big Trump, Except for the place we live.
00:17:32.250 --> 00:17:43.240
We're surrounded in the northeast by liberal states, which I think has a pretty big impact on our business.
00:17:43.240 --> 00:17:44.425
Let's just say you know.
00:17:44.425 --> 00:17:45.887
Impact on our business, let's just say you know.
00:17:46.429 --> 00:17:56.228
Well, speaking of Texas and Nashville, if y'all are looking to go to Texas or Nashville, reach out to your girl Preach, reach out to your girl.
00:17:56.228 --> 00:17:58.775
I will happily book you a trip.
00:17:58.775 --> 00:18:02.291
Explore with Liberty at gmailcom.
00:18:03.455 --> 00:18:06.993
There you go, is your social media live and active?
00:18:07.034 --> 00:18:13.352
yet no, but to all you listeners that keep creeping on me, thank you, but I'm not ready yet.
00:18:13.352 --> 00:18:19.278
I'm trying to write a bio that really just grabs you by the nut and clusters.
00:18:19.438 --> 00:18:21.671
Whoa A hundred bunches of votes.
00:18:22.526 --> 00:18:25.153
Really reels you in, I'm almost done, yowza.
00:18:25.153 --> 00:18:25.855
I'm almost done.
00:18:25.855 --> 00:18:29.530
I can still book, even though my social media is not live.
00:18:29.530 --> 00:18:31.390
I did get my forms back.
00:18:31.390 --> 00:18:32.413
They were approved.
00:18:32.413 --> 00:18:33.891
I can move forward.
00:18:33.891 --> 00:18:35.892
I just want it to be perfect.
00:18:36.125 --> 00:18:37.348
I'm kind of a perfectionist.
00:18:37.348 --> 00:18:39.015
At some point you're just going to pull the trigger on it.
00:18:39.015 --> 00:18:41.692
I'm the same way with so many things.
00:18:41.692 --> 00:18:43.949
I did the same thing with our social media as well.
00:18:43.969 --> 00:18:50.708
You just sit on it for too long and I know eventually, you just kind of pull the trigger well, I've decided that I am gonna just post it, like before I go back to work.
00:18:50.708 --> 00:18:55.866
Like hey y'all, this is what I've been doing I hear you speaking of posting it.
00:18:56.647 --> 00:19:10.337
I've been so I love him true, I've been so um scroll, nerved up, jacked up about the election, that I have all these posts to make for our social media that I just haven't done.
00:19:10.337 --> 00:19:16.999
We actually had a lady send us some pictures today of a beautiful young girl wearing one of our outfits.
00:19:17.885 --> 00:19:19.311
And a little baby little baby.
00:19:19.705 --> 00:19:23.936
I should have gone up today because she was wearing a Republican shirt that we made.
00:19:23.936 --> 00:19:29.848
And here I am slacking, but my mental capacity is in overdrive right now.
00:19:29.848 --> 00:19:35.743
I am, I don't know, I'm just, I'm running thin over here.
00:19:35.743 --> 00:19:37.126
I'm running thin on emotions.
00:19:37.126 --> 00:19:51.173
I just saw in Virginia that Harris took a one-point lead, which looked like Trump was heading towards winning Virginia, which was a big swing and a big flip.
00:19:51.173 --> 00:19:56.955
If that is the case, I think you get Virginia, pennsylvania, wisconsin.
00:19:57.045 --> 00:20:03.070
This thing starts to wrap itself up, but pretty close to some of these states, this is when we get a little nervous.
00:20:03.070 --> 00:20:21.211
And right now, as I'm recording this, I'm watching on a Fox channel and I keep going back and forth between Fox and Newsmax and it depends on which channel you're watching as to where their numbers are, but currently Trump's at 211 electoral points here and Harris is at 117.
00:20:21.211 --> 00:20:44.884
But if you guys remember, back in 2020, we kind of had the same similar situation where they started to call victory for Trump and then you know he had called for the, for the counting to stop, and then that's when all the craziness ensued and the next thing you know, y'all know so just kind of praying that they don't do that again.
00:20:44.884 --> 00:20:54.904
Let's just keep things rocking and rolling, keep it live, and I think we're more prepared as a country to make it through these things and to keep things honest.
00:20:54.904 --> 00:20:59.297
So let's let us pray, let us hope and pray.
00:20:59.297 --> 00:21:12.267
But I'm encouraged by the way things are going so far and I'm hopeful in a short amount of time here we'll start getting some real positive news in our favor.
00:21:12.326 --> 00:21:18.438
But crazy, crazy times, man, and we were thinking all day.
00:21:18.438 --> 00:21:29.852
At first we were like you know what, let's do our podcast early before the voting stuff and we can kind of try to just take all this in, but we're also going by the schedule of a newborn, so we're trying to figure that all out.
00:21:29.852 --> 00:21:45.488
And then we really said you know what, when they start counting votes, it's going to take forever, it's going to be you know an early um, like we're going to have time to record the podcast and watch all these votes get counted, because it's going to take forever.
00:21:45.488 --> 00:21:53.980
But we sat down and then just I just started chewing my fingernails off at the results gross.
00:21:55.207 --> 00:22:03.407
You know, any bugs are under your fingernails bugs, poop, horse shit maybe, but bugs no yeah, there's bugs on your eyelashes.
00:22:03.407 --> 00:22:05.512
What, what are you talking about?
00:22:05.512 --> 00:22:08.137
You're eating your fingernails.
00:22:10.664 --> 00:22:11.768
How do I have bugs on my eyelashes?
00:22:11.768 --> 00:22:15.897
And if I do, how does that involve my fingers and my nails being chopped off?
00:22:16.005 --> 00:22:20.876
I'm just making a point, because you touch your eyes when you put your contacts in.
00:22:20.876 --> 00:22:22.990
Everybody has bugs on their eyelashes.
00:22:23.732 --> 00:22:24.797
Oh my God, Everyone.
00:22:24.797 --> 00:22:26.671
This is a tailspin.
00:22:26.944 --> 00:22:29.914
We are going into a tailspin of an episode.
00:22:29.914 --> 00:22:36.972
Well, I mean, our country is going into a tailspin right now full of anxiety waiting for the results.
00:22:37.625 --> 00:22:40.355
Yeah, I think that's probably the consensus throughout the country.
00:22:40.355 --> 00:22:45.384
I mean, if you're not giving a hoot, then I'm kind of surprised, I guess, right, you?
00:22:45.310 --> 00:22:46.069
probably didn't vote Iot.
00:22:45.994 --> 00:22:49.112
then I'm kind of surprised, I guess, right, you probably didn't vote, I know, but I mean, you clearly didn't vote.
00:22:49.112 --> 00:22:52.124
If you don't give a hoot, but it's just kind of a surprise.
00:22:52.244 --> 00:22:56.175
Can we also just talk about my video that I posted today?
00:22:57.605 --> 00:22:58.750
Okay, yeah, shoot, go for it.
00:22:58.750 --> 00:22:59.373
Talk to me about it.
00:23:00.305 --> 00:23:04.107
I just think that it's important to remind the people.
00:23:04.107 --> 00:23:06.009
Okay, to remind the people.
00:23:06.009 --> 00:23:25.442
Okay, when you went to your town hall, your local school, wherever you went, and you stood there standing in the ballot box putting in your little answer, I think it's important to remember that who you chose is who you chose.
00:23:25.442 --> 00:23:28.372
Okay, Right, Great, important to remember that who you chose is who you chose.
00:23:28.392 --> 00:23:28.673
Okay, right.
00:23:28.673 --> 00:23:42.073
What happens all the time is the fact that, like, you'll stand with somebody until they lose, or you'll stand with somebody until they make one wrong move, like it's a.
00:23:42.073 --> 00:23:45.000
Well, I think that's the scenario in this country for everything right that's how relationships go.
00:23:45.020 --> 00:23:46.223
This country for everything right.
00:23:46.223 --> 00:23:47.627
That's how relationships go.
00:23:47.627 --> 00:23:48.891
That's how friendships go.
00:23:48.891 --> 00:23:50.955
That's how work relationships go.
00:23:50.955 --> 00:23:54.654
That's how um you know, romantic relationships go.
00:23:54.776 --> 00:24:13.537
You make your pick and you'll stand by it until something doesn't go your way, and then it's bye, bye, heading the other way yeah, but honestly, like win, lose or draw, that's your candidate, like that's who you need to stand with, because that is why our country is so divided, one of the reasons.
00:24:13.881 --> 00:24:27.193
Well, yeah, I think the thing is, though, is that sometimes, when win, lose or draw, if you're standing with your candidate that lost and you're not willing to accept the one that did win, then we stay at a standstill in the same sense.
00:24:27.193 --> 00:24:44.517
Right, you know, we had to really concede to some things over the past four years, even though we didn't like it, but the thing that people need to remember is that we didn't send this country into an uprising over the stolen election last year.
