We are products of divide and conquer.
We're taught that if we don't get it, someone else will.
There were so many points throughout our campaign that people tried to pull us apart.
People internal working on our campaigns who were saying, "You need to cut it loose, like you cannot be helping Lisa and Shayla."
There was even a point where we had an individual who was helping me at an extremely discounted rate.
Me and my partner, we were just like Shayla needs a campaign manager.
Let Shayla have the campaign manager, so that she can at least get started.
Lisa saw a point where I didn't have a campaign office and she was like, you can share the campaign office.
There were points where I was taking all of my lit with me and taking all of their lit with me, and my car was full of all of our stuff together.
Other campaigns charge to do that kind of thing.
They charge each other to do those things.
