We have an extreme MAGA group in the Republican Party that has no real plan to bring down inflation, i think that choice [is] between a party that’s standing up to the special interests and delivering change, and… an extreme party, a party that’s talking about, well, some of the leaders talking about abolishing Social Security and Medicare every five years.

This isn't a plan. It's barely a powerpoint.

Michael Phillips haven't really tested extensively. Michael Phillips don't know how widespread it is. If you don't test, you're not going to find it, i think what's clear is however many cases there are here now, there are going to be more.

It's challenges like this that require you to have experienced, competent people in the government, and... a President willing to listen.
