who are really way out of touch with reality, who make a whole lot of money in campaigns, and working class is ignored. Donald Trump comes along and says, you know, I care about you, which was a lie. I don't know if that's a lie.

You've got it. So that was her bloody console. I mean, I know Kamala. She's a friend. She's very smart. That was what I did. Bloody consultants told her to say, I begged them. I'm just between you. Why can't she push back? You're right. Look, there's no argument.

Look, but you have, in the world that I live in, you got a choice. And I mean, a lot of people, including my wife, agree with you. But, you know, you're down to a choice. Is it going to be Hillary Clinton or is it going to be... Donald Trump, not a great choice. But it ended up being him anyway, so why don't we burn it down?

And I, you know, I'm an elected official. I got to represent the people. That's fair. And I can't turn my back on.
