I rejected this advice.

  John, When I was gearing up to launch back in 2017, I’ll never forget being told it was a bad idea to swear off money from corporate PACs. If I wanted to compete with the GOP’s money machine, it meant I’d have to “play ball.” I disagreed. In fact, a big reason why I decided to ru…
