On Democrat Candidate Being A Threat to Washington, D.C.’s  Public Safety:

 

“[Democrats] continue to elect these candidates who are these left-wing wackadoos. And in DC, our nation's capital, the President has done so much to clean the city.”

 

“People want to make sure that we continue to clean up D.C. We continue to have safer streets. George the Socialist is just another left-wing wackadoo the Democrats are putting up, and it certainly threatens the safety, security, and the overall well-being of everybody that's there in D.C.”

 

“I want to make sure that we have a place that we could call home that is safe. And the President did that. He did it by himself, and I completely agree with everything he wants to do. This is all on the Democrats and Mamdani and AOC. They've inspired these left-wing wackadoo candidates. The fact that D.C. is about to elect a socialist shouldn't surprise anybody.”

 

On President Trump Leading The Way For Republican Victories This November:

 

“I think more people watch[ed] [UFC Freedom 250] than watched the Super Bowl. I think people feel patriotic. They feel that America is great once again, and [the President is] leading the way. Look at what he's doing with Iran and ending this conflict. It's peace through strength. It's his work on the economy going to bat for the average everyday American worker, so that they could have a pathway to the American Dream. It's this President that's really leading the charge and our candidates across the board.”

 

“We're getting these matchups that we want at the local, at the congressional level, [and] at the state level, and we're going to have a lot of wins in November as a result of the President's leadership.”
