The President. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I appreciate it. You've been here the whole time. I see it. I see that patch there.

Look, folks, you know, thereâI shouldn't say this, but my brother always uses lines from movies. There was a famous movie by John Wayne, andâand he's working for theâthe Northern military trying to get the Apaches back on the reservation, and they were lying like hell to him.

And they're all sitting on a bluff, and John Wayne was sitting with two Indianâthey wereâ they were Apaches. And one of them looked at John Wayne and said, "These guys are nothing but lying, dog-faced pony soldiers." [*Laughter*]

Except, he's just a liar.

Look, folks, what's going to happen over the next couple days is they're going to beâthey're going to be out there fact-checking all the things he said.

I can't think of one thing he said that was true. No, IâI'm not being facetious.

But look, we're going to beat this guy. We need to beat this guy. And I need you in order to beat him. You're the people I'm running for.

Audience members. We need you! We need you! We need you! The President. Well, hereâhe says he's going toââ Audience members. We need you! We need you! We need you!

The President. He says he's going to be the retribution for his supporters.

You are the reason why America is as good as we are. We're the finest nation in the whole damn world, and no one is close. Nobody is close.

So let's keep going. See you at the next one. God love you all.

Heading to North Carolina. All right.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I wanted to go home with you. Thank you.
