You didn't fail and you shouldn't feel as though you did. The only failure is giving up, which you have not done. You made the correct choice since you knew that this particular effort wasn't shaping up the way you'd hoped. You did not want to continue to take money from supporters when you knew at this point you'd not be able to deliver what was expected. There's no failure in that. On the contrary, it is an honorable decision. Failure is what many politicians have done for the citizenry of these great United States. Failure is our stratospheric debt. Failure is the destruction of the middle class. Failure is our border non-policy. Failure was the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Failure is the rising crime of our major cities. I could go on. You reached plenty of people; maybe you've laid the groundwork to give you a consistent platform to share your visions, e.g., put yourself on the radar of popular media like Newsmax. One thing's for sure - you didn't fail.

For a big portion of your life, you've gone against tremendous odds, Steve. You're a winner because you've come out on top so many times that you've been faced with those odds.

It seems as if American politics is a ruthless bloodsport that requires approximately, a billion dollars to get out ahead of the pack. I think that it's safe to say, the D.C. Swamp is extremely deep, large and chock full of creatures who have no intention of giving up their power over the masses. The Mainstream Media is no different.

You're still young enough and I believe you have plenty of gas in the tank.... and have the intellect to accomplish great things even in that lousy environment.

Your message is real and it's solid and there's nothing phony about any part of your life.

You need the backing of a billionaire or two who expect nothing back except the kind of leadership and governance that you're already proven to possess!
