I can't make that up. They start cutting that kind of money. I can't make that up. People are going to suffer.

People are frustrated. I mean, first of all, they're exhausted. There's enormous fatigue that there's so much incoming all the time. The voters were promised lower prices on Inauguration Day. And let's talk about what's happened since…

I know how I'll spend it as a Democrat and I'll make sure it goes to the right place. Haven't helped the Republican states who might take that money and do something that's not focused on feeding hungry kids, helping kids with disabilities…
