Would it still have no income caps, so people who make $1 million, $2, $3 million a year--

So this is a political stunt, and the American people need to see it for what it is. In my career, I have negotiated my whole life. Negotiation is about leverage. Would you agree?

Last question: The COVID-era Biden subsidies were set to expire in 2025, by Democrats. Did you know that when they had power, they set the EV--electric vehicle--subsidies to expire in 2032?

If you are somebody on Medicare, no matter where you are in America, do these COVID-era, Biden, ObamaCare subsidies lower your deductibles?

It doesn't go to the pocket of the consumer. For example, if I want to go find a doctor who is going to offer treatment for less money because my deductible is too high, this doesn't help me because I am not getting the money. It is going…

What does that mean, ``shutting down the government''? Who is the leverage? Is it the air traffic controllers who aren't getting paid or the Capitol Police who aren't getting paid? Yesterday, we tried to fund Federal workers who are forced…

What we’d like to do is for the Democrats to open up the government of course, then we can fund SNAP.

Anger usually wins midterm elections.

I think it’s an absurd ruling.

I’m trying to preserve something in my own country where we are a unified nation, and I don’t think that can happen if you have too much immigration too quickly.

We’re going to keep on working to make a decent life affordable in this country, and that’s the metric by which we’ll ultimately be judged in 2026 and beyond.

The reality is that kids do stupid things, especially young boys.

This is far worse than anything said in a college group chat.

I’m just confused why this idea has come around, considering the fact that not only does their religion not agree with ours, but also openly supports the prosecution of ours.

We’re going to find out the hard way with SNAP benefits — the American people are already suffering, and the suffering is going to get a lot worse, not because the president of the United States has failed to make the shutdown painless.

We’re messing with people’s lives.

Tariffs give us the ability to put American workers first.
