“Had the president not come down here and stuck his nose into this race, I would be the winner. I will tell you right now. I’m not scared of the president of the United States. And I’m not scared to stand up against the president of the United States. We’re going to sit and think about what the way ahead is. I’m not scared. I am not. I think that we need a voice that is willing to actually say what needs to be said, and I think there are a lot of things that need to be said. This country’s not going down the right path. This country right now is going towards a path that should scare people. He is catering to the top 1 percent while absolutely turning his back on the bottom, the working class.”
