LAS VEGAS _ Andrew Yang was having lunch with eight recipients of his $1,000 monthly "Freedom Dividend" in a private poolside room inside the Bellagio hotel when one lucky winner offered up how he was pitching this unconventional presidential candidacy to friends.
"He wants to be your sugar daddy!" said Chad Sziszak, a 30-year-old from Ponchatoula, La., who planned to put his stipend toward car repairs and reconciling old debt.
"Wow I hadn't thought of that one," Yang replied, before adding his own characteristic deadpan: "I prefer the Asian Oprah."
