Dr. Gina Loudon:
….Others in your capacity have gone about it the same way, but you've come up with creative ways to tackle issues that traditionally, maybe folks in your position never have tackled before. How will you help protect Donald Trump from the malicious prosecutions, the malicious persecutions that we're witnessing on almost a daily basis here in the state of Florida?
CFO Patronis:
So thank you for your kind words. The other day, I'm walking by in the office and on the tv, the scroller saying, President Trump is on the stand. And I got so upset. Here's a sitting former president of the United States, who's been hauled into court. All the debts are paid. There were no defaults, and it's a political prosecution. So I told my guys, we've got to find a way to protect Florida Man.
Dr. Gina Loudon:
And which I love, by the way, because Florida man has become a derogatory term and I love that you are shifting it back with one fell swoop here. Love it. Keep going.
CFO Patronis:
Well Florida Man is good for the country. We've created this idea of our Defending Freedom Fighters Fund. And I told our guys, look, I said, we already in the state of Florida do state sponsored dollars for elections. These are dollars being used for political purposes. The Democrats are using dollars, tax dollars for political purposes with their prosecutions. Why shouldn't we defend a Floridian who is running for federal office, be it be president or vice president? So again, the legislature will have the final say on this, but we've got to defend those that we feel can turn this country back around.
