“You know, seeing his platform and everything of what he wants to do for this country in the next four years if he gets elected, is definitely exciting. I mean, I’m like, I’m sure everybody’s concerned like myself. Food, gas. You know, so many prices have went up and, you know, people can’t afford to do the things like they used to do. When you get the economy back into good shape, I think this country will move in a good direction.”

“It made me so happy that he chose Vance, because out of everybody on the short list, once I found out Ron DeSantis couldn’t be it because he’s from Florida. JD Vance was my pick because he represents my generation. We’re tired of all, no offence, the old people in Washington. The fact that Biden’s been there for 50 years, almost half a century, and hasn’t done anything. Why is he still there?”
