I liked when the reporter asked Karamo if she could name just one example of how they’ve been fundraising and she said yes but still failed to do so.
Kristina Karamo
We’re not bankrupt. That’s not true. So the thing about it is, we are operating at a positive cash flow. So yes, it has-- have I hit the financial goals that I would like? Not at the level I would like, but we are on our way.
Zoe Chace
Well, that’s why I guess I’m asking just for any example. Is there a fundraiser in which you tapped into businesses that had been sitting on the sidelines, like you talked about in your campaign?
Kristina Karamo
Of course.
Zoe Chace
Or something like that?
Kristina Karamo
Of course.
Zoe Chace
Just any specific you can give me?
Kristina Karamo
Yeah, well, for one, yes. But I don’t know what specific you’re looking for. Because my question is, why are you so dogmatic on the notion of people who want to push the elitist narrative? That’s my question. Because I’ve answered it multiple times.
But my question to you, so why are you so aggressive on that notion? I’m not going to go through the nuts and bolts of every person who’s given $1 or $10,000 or $20,000 to our administration. I’ve answered, we’re operating at a positive cash flow.
It Could Happen Here recently published a podcast episode about how this would work. Some people are upset with how far out the date it set, but it’s a smart approach and provides the runway necessary for other industries/unions to sign new contracts.
