Believe them when they said that they were going to cut the cost of groceries, cut the cost of gas, cut the cost. Instead, we got tariffs that have us paying more than $1 ,000. In fact, some analysts think it's more than $4 ,000 per household for Georgians. We've got health care costs that are higher because they cut health care right after they promised they weren't going to cut health care. So we've got a lot of folks who believed them when they said they were going to do that, and now they're looking for a different direction. Just like a lot of people believed them when they said that they weren't going to get us into a new Middle East war only for us to find ourselves in Iran with no plan for how to get out. A lot of people believed them when they said they were gonna drain the swamp. Remember that? It is getting more corrupt by the day. The only thing they've drained in Washington DC is that little reflecting pool in front of the Lincoln Memorial, right?
