Yeah, that’s plausible for sure given how humble Ross is… but for some reason I recall him saying quite early into the campaign (which I may be recalling incorrectly since it was almost a year ago, in many 2+ hour videos) that the EU had very strict political lobbying laws.
Receiving funds was a no-no, and even putting up a billboard would have ran foul of the rules and invalidated everything.
He did recently mention that you can’t do political ads on YouTube, but he was rather more perturbed at the idea of navigating through the legal and financial system of EU, owing to his own personal troubles with them.
He might have changed his mind based on new info, idk. But he clearly doesn’t want to get involved anymore than he needs to because it’s very taxing.
I think the main reason he didn’t want to take money was because he himself doesn’t think can handle such a campaign or lacks the will to do so.
