If I had my choice, I wish this country, America, were running great. I wish I could stand up and say, "Wow, this place is really running fantastically."

Our military has been so badly depleted. Who would think the United States is raiding plane graveyards to pick up parts and equipment? That means they're being held together by a shoestring. Other countries have brand-new stuff they have bought from us. It's insane.

You look at Russia's doing with their nuclear capability and the newness of their capability, and look at we're - what we're doing, and nobody wants to do that with respect to nukes because nukes are horrible. But you have countries that are going out of their way to do things that we're not doing. And we have to be very, very careful.

I don't view myself as powerful. I mean, I view myself as a person that like everybody else is fighting for survival. That's all I view myself as and I really view myself now as somewhat of a messenger. You know, this is a massive thing that's going on. These are millions and millions of people that have been disenfranchised from this country. I was in front of a group yesterday, at least 25,000 people. The place was going crazy, and I said, I'm like the messenger.

The drugs are poisoning our youth, the drugs are poisoning our youth and others. But we're getting the drugs [from Mexico] and we're getting lots of problems.

America is a nation of believers, dreamers and strivers that is being led by a group of censors, critics, and cynics.
