One of my companies informed me they cancelled a $2m conference in Florida. Why ?

They didn’t feel they could pass on the incremental cost of tariffs. So they are cutting expenses.

That’s a city that lost a ton of tourism revenue.

The cost of tariffs isn’t just the cost of the tariff

A couple of golf outings could pay for over 300 federal jobs for an entire year.

Had a great time doing this interview with Jeff Flake, and thanks for the support @davidaxelrod.bsky.social it was invaluable.

The interview covers everything. My background. Shark tank. Politics. You name it

Got to say I LOVE the Trump Administration negotiating to get Rare Minerals from Ukraine, for 2 reasons:
1. It reduces our dependence on China for Lithium and Graphite (China provides near 70% of world supply)
2. More than 50% of those minerals are in Russian Annexed land.

Our next president will have to be technologically competent, at least , in order for us to sustain our place in the world.

This will become increasingly obvious over the next 4 years as AI gets more powerful

This isn’t necessarily bad. Truly. Done right, we will be a better, more equal society

Kamala could have said “I cant stop the price of Gatorade from going up a quarter. But I damn well can cut the cost of almost every medication that you take by 20 percent or more by cutting out the middlemen.

Which is more important to your family at this very moment ? Health or Gatorade ?

I would do it exclusively in red areas. Go where minds can be changed. Not where the choir already stands behind you !
Good idea. But why not have him do it from Main Street, USA? Go on location and deliver the news to the people outside the DC bubble. Interview people the news would affect.

Don’t make it a press conf. Make it a sales pitch that happens to be a news/entertainment show with direct distribution.
