It looks like my ballot. And with it, I can participate in democracy.

Here's the mail. It never fails. It makes me want to wag my tail. When it comes, I want to wail, ‘Mail!’

The idea that we could take our government back

Since you’re too afraid to debate me, how about you ‘hold me accountable’ on a football field instead.

They all think we won't step up and fight... They think they're the biggest, baddest bully on the playground... That they're going to show up and we're going to run away...

They are going to try to paint me as a certain thing, (but) America is a lot bigger than (these) very small people make it out to be.

I aim to cast him as an avatar of the corporate elite that has raised prices and left everyday Michiganders struggling.

So imagine, instead of paying that to your health insurance company, whose CEO makes $20 million a year, instead, you paid a little bit more in taxes for healthcare that you wouldn’t lose if you lost your job or turned 26 or got married or…

We might see the world differently. But we also recognize the responsibility to come together.

Both of these multimillionaires can afford a weekend on Mackinac Island. How about you and your family?

Donald Trump's vision is the one you're living in right now. Can you afford your gas? Can you afford your groceries?

I love and revere Judaism and the Jewish people.

So, yes, you got two different visions of America. Donald Trump's vision is the one you're living in right now.

It’s not radical to believe that people should be able to afford their groceries.

Until we protect local communities from the power of corrupting money and politics, we’re going to continue to see projects like this get pushed.

“We shook up the world,” he declared.

One in which your overlords are two people who don’t like each other, but join in the interest of making billions of dollars off of you – or two people who genuinely love each other, enjoyed some pancakes together, want to come together to…

“Yeah, he’s right,” El-Sayed told CNN when asked about a post by the US president that depicted an image of Trump and the first lady, Melania Trump, beside a photo of El-Sayed, who is Muslim, and his wife, Sarah Jukaku, wearing a hijab.

We aired our differences in the heated primary. But we also recognize the responsibility to come together.

I was grateful for his advice. It was very warm, very inviting, and I know that he knows the critical role that Michigan is going to play.
