Look, he took the most secure border in my lifetime and unsecured it on purpose. And I get your most. Look, everybody asks why I'm so emotional on this issue. Look, I've talked to young girls as young as nine years old that were raped multiple times by criminal cartel members. I've held dying children. I've held dead children. I've talked to hundreds of angel moms and dads. I know every one of their names and every one of their stories. And their stories are difficult. No parents should bury their child. The administration has blood on their hands. If Trump was president, this likely wouldn't happen because we had to remain in Mexico program. We ended catch release and ICE was able to do their job. This administration bears a brunt on this.

What is it about Philly? Is it really kind of curious about the Trump phenomenon, or do you think they're just going to go back and blue all the way through? No, I think this is going to be different this time around, because people are fed up of the high prices everywhere. I mean, my stake used to be $8. Now it's $14.50. I mean, it's crazy. I hate to give that kind of price out for a cheesesteak. Why has it gone that high? $14.50? When I lived in Philly, it was a long time ago. I know I looked so young. It was like $5. Yeah, it's from the ribeye, the bread, the meat, the cheese, oil. Everything just went sky high in a matter of two years.

When I argued if we should freeze federal spending, I meant Social Security as well. And I not only tried it once, I tried it twice, I tried it a third time, and I tried it a fourth time. Raising the cap, raising the retirement age for people that are now 30 years old, raising the tax on Social Security, cutting benefits, they're all things that have to be discussed, quite frankly. American people know we have to fix Social Security. They know we can't grow our way to a solution. They know we're going to have to make some tough decisions. Would you consider looking at those programs, age of eligibility, cost of living, put it all on the table? The answer is absolutely you have to. We are going to change the retirement age for Social Security. We will always protect Social Security and Medicare for our great seniors. Biden can't do that. As president, I kept that promise, and I will keep it once again. I will not, under any circumstances, allow either of these two precious gems to be even touched under a Trump administration. You will always have your Social Security in full as you have it now, and you always have your Medicare. Social Security will be strong, and powerful Medicare will be strong. You deserve it. I will always protect Medicare and Social Security for our great seniors.

If you go to dinner, and the bill is like, say, $25, how much of a tip would you throw down? Well, you know, the way I feel about tips, if somebody does a super job, I give more than anyone. And if somebody does a lousy job, I probably give less than anybody, and that's the way I feel about life. Life should be, you should be rewarded for competence and capability and doing a job and having a smile on your face, maybe, if that's the case. And I'm a pretty good tipper when somebody's good, and I'm a pretty lousy tipper if somebody's not good, so that's the way I feel.
