[Reed] Whatever perceptions
they might have do not comport with reality. At the time,
our media buyer said, "I can't be
on a finance report." And I said, okay,

far, far from it. [Rick] Here's what I can say. I drive a five-year-old Volvo. I could sure use a-- I could sure use to replace
my driveway, you know? I'm not--my lifestyle is-- is basically this fight. There is no giant
slush fund where people, you know, went off and bought
a volcano island to have a lair. Nobody made that much money. We made money,
but not that much

[Reed] Whatever perceptions they might have
00:00:03.042 --> 00:00:06.631
do not comport with reality.
00:00:06.673 --> 00:00:08.508
At the time, our media buyer said,
00:00:08.055 --> 00:00:10.302
"I can't be on a finance report."
00:00:12.595 --> 00:00:15.307
And I said, okay, we'll use my company.
00:00:15.348 --> 00:00:16.975
Why?
00:00:17.999 --> 00:00:19.811
Because the people that made our ads, in that moment,
00:00:19.853 --> 00:00:23.023
were still working for Republicans, too, right?
00:00:23.064 --> 00:00:25.608
So they did not want to have their names
00:00:25.065 --> 00:00:27.001
out there associated with us.
00:00:27.001 --> 00:00:29.321
I didn't make $27 million.
00:00:29.362 --> 00:00:31.656
Far, far, far, far, far from it.
00:00:33.742 --> 00:00:35.091
[Rick] Here's what I can say.
00:00:35.952 --> 00:00:37.495
I drive a five-year-old Volvo.
00:00:37.537 --> 00:00:39.164
I could sure use a--
00:00:39.205 --> 00:00:41.997
I could sure use to replace my driveway, you know?
00:00:41.001 --> 00:00:44.336
I'm not--my lifestyle is--
00:00:44.377 --> 00:00:46.088
is basically this fight.
00:00:46.921 --> 00:00:48.923
There is no giant slush fund where people,
00:00:48.965 --> 00:00:50.675
you know, went off and bought a volcano island
00:00:50.717 --> 00:00:52.998
to have a lair.
00:00:52.052 --> 00:00:53.845
Nobody made that much money.
00:00:53.887 --> 00:00:55.764
We made money, but not that much.
