Hey ladies and gentlemen this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and former
0:04
President Donald Trump, he's probably doing a victory dance after what he just did in Nancy Pelosi's backyard. Before we get started please make sure you like

0:21
expect to hear about a lot of support for former President Trump is San Francisco but Trump and Tony Bennett may have left their hearts in San
0:30
Francisco but a lot of people left some donations in San Francisco to the tune
0:35
of around 12 million dollars for former President Trump. Now this event was
0:39
organized by David Sachs who has just recently given his endorsement to former
0:45
President Trump and he gets into the reasons why he believes the support
0:49
there in San Francisco is actually so high among Silicon Valley for former
0:54
President Trump. He was talking about this to Fox News host Laura Ingram and I
0:59
think he nails a broader point about why a lot of people support President Trump
1:03
I want you to watch this video and let me know if you agree with him and what you think in the comments. You know, you know Speaker Pelosi has to be furious
1:11
about this. Let's take a look. And there are even signs of life in liberal
1:17
la-la land. Silicon Valley investor David Sachs hosted a fundraiser last night in
1:22
San Francisco. Look, it's Pelosi and Gavin Newsom's home. That's progress and
1:28
that's the angle. Joining me now is David Sachs, Kraft Ventures co-founder, co-host
1:33
of the All In podcast. David, now it's pretty in your face to host Trump in one
1:41
of the bluest cities in the United States and this was the scene outside of
1:45
the fundraiser, only a smattering of anti-Trump protesters. So what was the
1:49
turnout like inside? The turnout was amazing, Laura. You know, we originally
1:55
tried to raise five million dollars for President Trump and we ended up raising
1:59
12 million. We had something like a hundred people there. Every seat was
2:03
taken. We literally couldn't fit one more person in the house. It was completely sold out. And by the way, those protesters who were outside, those were actually
2:10
pro-Trump demonstrators. There were hundreds of people who turned out along the motorcade for Trump to basically wave signs in favor of him. The number of
2:20
people who actually were protesting against Trump, there was maybe, you know, a
2:24
couple of dozen versus hundreds of people who are pro-Trump. So even out on
2:28
the streets, there was a tremendous enthusiasm gap. And if that's what's
2:32
happening in liberal San Francisco, what does that tell you about what's happening throughout the country? Now, what is Silicon Valley? And a couple of these
2:38
guys I know were from Silicon Valley. What do they hope for in exchange for
2:45
their support? Honestly, it's not that transactional, Laura. You know, it's not
2:51
like there's some sort of overt quid pro quo. Most of these people just really
2:56
love America and they want to see America doing better. Now, in terms of what the industry cares about, the industry wants to be able to innovate
3:03
And the Biden administration has been very hostile towards innovation. It's been extremely hostile towards the crypto industry. It's already trying to
3:11
overregulate AI. It's basically put the kibosh on any M&A. And so I do think
3:16
that the industry would like to have more pro-innovation policies coming out
3:21
of Washington. And that does lead to support for President Trump. But again, it's not anything transactional. It really is about having a better
3:28
administration in Washington. Now, what message does what happened last night? I know he was also in L.A
