I am running for the people who work their entire lives and still can't afford to retire because the economic system in this country is rigged against them.
And I'm running for all the workers who've been told to do or to go home, who've been told that they are replaceable and that their lives are dispensable.
And look, I'm running for that little boy who stood behind his father at the Highland years ago, and all those kids who've watched their parents work so hard and still struggle, and their lives have been defined by wealth inequality and the status quo.
We have
to break the status quo, it's not working for us.
Yeah, well thanks, Ben.
Getting a little emotional watching that again.
Uh I mean the status quo is exactly what uh is is the problem.
I mean, I think uh people across the state and probably across the country are feeling like it doesn't matter who uh it is, Democrats or Republicans, uh, you know, they're getting a raw deal.
And and and that's what you're seeing.
Um, and that's what I'm hearing and feeling.
Uh, you know, I was a second
Highest ranking Democrat in the state of Maine, and and I still feel like you know no one's listening uh across this this state to what's going on with uh everyday people.
They feel like uh they're getting left behind in a system and that is only thing that seems like people want are uh tax cuts for the wealthy.
And and that's what you're seeing in in Congress is that you know, guys like Trump.
Trump are are just lying to people uh so that they can get uh tax cuts for the wealthiest people in this country.
And that never works for people like us.
It it it never has, it never will.
And for me, it seems like you know, I've been born to to fight against people like uh Trump.
I mean, to take on bullies like him, to to fight against billionaires since I was a young boy.
