[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,
we'll use my company. Why? Because the people that
made our ads, in that moment, were still working
for Republicans, too, right? So they did not want
to have their names out there associated with us. I didn't make $27 million. Far, far, far,
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

[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.

[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.
