I know that there is only one person up here who's never voted for Donald Trump, who's never voted for Marsha Blackburn, who has known all along that they would be detrimental to our state. We are now seeing the effects of it. People are trying to decide between paying for their groceries or getting their medicine. They're trying to see if they can pay their utility bill or fill up at the tank. If you want more of that, then you should vote for Marsha Blackburn or David Hatley or Lauren Pinkston. But if you're ready for change, then I ask you to take a stand today. We're not going to be able to kumbaya our way out of fascism and it is at our front doors.
