In just a few months, one of us is going to stand on the debate stage with Hillary Clinton, and the choice we are making today is who will best defend our values; who will best defend your values and fight for you. I have to tell you I cannot wait to stand on that stage with Hillary Clinton and say, Madame Secretary, you are asking for a third-term of a failed administration. You are asking for millions more to remain in stagnant jobs, for millions more steelworkers to be out of a work, for wages to remain low, for young people not to have a future. We can do better. We can, instead, repeal Obamacare, abolish the IRS, unleash millions of jobs, defend the Bill of Rights, defend the Second Amendment, religious liberty, stand with our cops and our firefighters and our soldiers and we can keep America safe. That's the choice I will put to her this Fall.
