Everyone knew. Girl, I'm dying here because she goes like, that I can't win. Because, like, I just, I just feel like you got to be unapologetic for yourself.
And there's still a way to work with people, but I'm not going to lie about the person. Yeah, but you can soften your edges, right? Like, you can, you can soften them. Look, I called abortion barbaric two weeks before election day in a room with about 250 people, and it was being live-streamed.
Everybody said, I think you just shot yourself in the dick. And I said, oops. That's all I said.
I'm like, oops. It's like, it didn't matter at the end of the day. Hanson, let me ask you something real quick, because there's not a lot of people know a lot about it.
The provision, the tax provision regarding gambling losses. Do you know much about that? People keep asking me about it. So from what I understand, it removes the ability to claim like 90% of your losses on your taxes.
Is that true? Look, I take great issue with gambling losses being a deduction. Okay. And I think everyone should.
It would create an incentive of literally gambling with the tax rolls. Because imagine if you go to a casino and you say, fuck it, I'm just going to create massive amounts of upside for me and screw. There's no downside to it.
How is that any different than buying a business and reporting the loss? The difference? At least you quote, quote, tried, right? Like Trump bought the plaza knowing he would get a loss and have a credit for 10 years' worth of a loss.
But it was still a strategic business and he did try to make it work. Um, so it's, it's, it's, it's a little more different than that.
