Tom Tradup is a friend of Elder, vice president of SALEM Radio Network. He told the Daily Caller News Foundation previously that Elder’s campaign against the Governor was “tough” in a state so dominated by Democrats. Tradup praised the success of the host in winning 57 of California’s counties.

Tradup said that “any Republican running for office in California will have a hard time due to the high, high Democratic registration.” “But the rest is going to listen to the message Larry Elder delivers.”

Elder joins the growing GOP field, which includes former South Carolina Governor and former President Donald Trump. Nikki Haley and former Arkansas Governor. Asa Hutchinson, and conservative businessman Vivek Raamswamy.

Tradup said that Tradup truly wanted to move this country forward. “[Americans] have had enough of word-processed and overly lawyered statements, which they then run through a deflavorizer to make sure they don’t offend anyone. “What you get is candidates who are running without a clear message.”

“Democrats want you to get something for nothing.” Elder said that if you try to get anything for nothing, the result is nothing.
