00:00 R.F.K. Jr. — I call him "Junior."
00:05 By the way, he's radical left.
00:07 Don't think about it.
00:09 Don't waste your vote.
00:11 We need a conservative person with common sense.
00:13 This guy is radical left who destroyed New York.
00:16 (Applause.)
00:17 They're taking down all of the energy components.
00:20 We have the highest — and all of New England, actually.
00:24 He's a disaster.
00:25 He's radical left.
00:26 R.F.K.
00:27 Jr. is radical left.
00:29 He reminds me of this fly that's driving me crazy up here.
00:33 (Laughter.)
00:35 This fly is brutal.
00:37 I don't like flies.
00:43 But R.F.K. Jr. calls you a terrorist group.
00:48 You know, he calls you a terrorist group.
00:50 Can't vote for him.
00:51 You can't.
00:52 You know, somebody said, well, they like his policy on vaccine.
00:54 The other day, he said, no, no, he'll go for the vaccine.
00:58 He's got no policy on anything.
00:59 He's radical left.
01:01 He always has been.
01:02 His family is angry at him because he's doing this.
01:05 They won't talk to him because they said, "Where the hell did this come from?"
01:09 And for some reason — for some reason, he's getting probably a little bit more Biden — hurting
01:16 Biden a little bit more.
01:18 But we can't waste any votes.
01:20 We have to make sure we win.
01:23 And I'm meeting — I don't know if you read, but I'm meeting next week, very soon, with
01:28 the Libertarians because, largely, they have so much of what we have.
01:34 You know, they're also people of common sense, generally speaking.
01:36 They have a couple of things that are a little different.
01:40 But we have to join with them because they get their 3 percent every year, no matter
01:44 who's running.
01:45 And we have to get that 3 percent because we can't take a chance on Joe Biden winning.
01:51 He's the worst president in the history of our country, by far.
01:55 We can't have it.
02:02 But RFK Jr. says bad, bad things.
02:05 He calls you a terrorist group, and I call you the backbone of America.
02:09 That's a big difference, wouldn't you say?
02:13 But under crooked Joe Biden, everything you stand for is under threat like never before.
02:19 Our Second Amendment, which is largely why you're here — I mean, that's the biggest
02:24 statement for you.
02:25 You know, when I go and make speeches at different places, it's always important.
02:29 But today, this is the big statement.
02:31 It's under siege.
02:33 Second Amendment is under siege.
02:35 Our Constitution is being run through the shredder.
02:38 Our borders have been obliterated.
02:42 Inflation continued to rage, and it's raging right now again.
02:46 And they shouldn't lower the interest rates because they're going to have to stop it.
02:49 But he's going to lower it just for purposes of trying to win an election, just like he
02:54 went into the Strategic Reserves to try and win an election and let — do stuff that's
02:59 supposed to be used for war and national emergencies to try and keep the gas prices down.
03:06 And now we have the lowest Strategic Reserves we've ever had.
03:09 Our country is going to hell.
03:12 Rapacious gangs and ruthless criminals are terrorizing our streets.
03:16 And crooked Joe Biden's weakness has us teetering on the edge of World War III.
