00:00The bill is now passed in the Senate, but we are already hearing from some Republicans in the House who say they cannot get on board with the changes that were made to the bill in the Senate. What is your message to those holdouts?
00:13Well, I just heard that about the Senate and the bill just passed. And it tells you there's something for everyone. I mean, we have it's a great bill. There is something for everyone. And I think it's going to go very nicely in the House. Actually, I think it will be easier in the House than it was in the Senate.
00:30And just to be clear on the Medicaid cuts, you've promised not to cut Medicaid, said this is all just targeting waste, fraud and abuse. Are you saying that the estimated 11.8 million people who could lose their health coverage, that is all waste, fraud and abuse?
00:43No, I'm not saying that. I'm saying it's going to be a very much smaller number than that. And that number will be waste, fraud and abuse. And if you look, they took a much more liberal stance on the Medicaid situation than they could have.
00:55They had a tough stance and a weak stance. They took not a very strong stance on that to start off. And it's waste, fraud and abuse. And everybody wants that covered.
01:05What number is that? What analysis are you are you seeing? I'm not seeing a number, but I know it's much less than the number you gave. And we really were very, very cognizant of three things.
01:15Social Security. We're going to take care of it beautifully. Medicare and Medicaid. And we are going to save it. Whereas the Democrats are going to you won't have it.
01:24They will destroy Medicare and Medicaid and they have to because the numbers don't work. So it's not going to happen. They're the ones that have destroyed.
01:31They have made it so bad already. They're going to make it a lot worse. But now we'll be in charge. So we're going to have no problem with Medicaid or Medicare or Social Security. Thank you.
