his name is going to be on there embossed, right next to luke and mark and matthew. and by the way, i will give you one guess, you could not make this stuff up, where these bibles are made. so mr. tough guy on china except when he can make a few bucks. hawking his trump edition bibles. come on, man. you can't make the stuff up. but he's doing it. and the reason he's doing it is because what he cares about is his ego and his money and his status. he's not thinking about you.

donald trump sees power as nothing more than a means to his ends. he wants the middle class to pay the price for another huge tax cut that would mostly help him and his country club buddies. he doesn't care if he costs more women their reproductive freedoms because it won't make a difference in his life. do not boo. vote. they can't hear you when you boo, but when you vote, everybody can hear you. vote. most of all, most of all, donald trump wants us to think that this country is hopelessly

divided. between us and them. between the, quote, real americans by which he means his supporters and those who don't support him because having people divided and angry and aggrieved and resentful, he figures it boosts his chances to get elected. now, so those are his intentions. i do have to point out that along with his intentions, there is also a question of his competence. have you seen him lately? i mean, he is out there, he's giving two, two and a half hour speeches, just word salads. you have no idea what he's talking about. he's talking about hannibal

lecter, he's talking about this, about that. he held a town hall meeting where he just -- let me explain. because i have done a lot of town hall meetings. the point of a town hall meeting is to take questions. he just decided, you know what, i'm going to stop taking questions, and then he's swaying to ave maria and ymca for about half an hour. folks are standing there not sure what's happening. can you imagine if i did that? can you imagine if ruben did that right in the middle? our playlist would probably be better. >> way better. >> but he called himself the father of ivf. i do not know what that means.

you do not either. he said january 6th was a day of love. do not boo. vote. made january 6th sound like it was woodstock. you -- you would be worried if your grandpa was acting like this. no, no, i'm not joking. you would, right? you would call up your cousins and say, have you noticed? so imagine it coming from a guy who wants to be given unchecked power. tucson, we do not need to see what an older, loonier donald

trump looks like with no guardrails. we have had enough of arrogance and bumbling and bluster and division. america's ready to turn the page. we're ready for a better story. we are ready for a president kamala harris. i warned you. i warned you. go ahead and chant. [ chanting not going back ] and the good news is, kamala harris is ready to do the job. this is a leader who has spent her life fighting on behalf of people who need a voice, who need a champion. somebody who was raised in the

middle class. believes in the values that built this country. worked her way through college in mcdonald's. served with distinction in every office she has ever held, who is as prepared for the job as any nominee for president has ever been. that's who kamala is. and in the white house, she will have an outstanding partner in governor tim walz. love that dude. tim's a veteran. he's a teacher. he's a coach. he's a hunter. been a great governor, working with democrats and republicans to get stuff done. and i learned the other day, he can take a vintage truck apart and put it back together again. which is just cool.

you think donald trump can do that? for that matter, do you think donald trump has ever changed a tire in his life? yeah, you know, he's like, he's like having jeevs change his tire. the point is, i was just picturing it. the point is, if you elect kamala and tim, they will not be focused on their problems. they will be focused on yours. they understand that too many folks, not just here in arizona, but across the country, are still struggling to pay the bills. even though wages are steadily growing. even though inflation is finally slowing. the price of everything, from

health care to housing to groceries, it's still too high. and it hurts. so the question is not whether or not we need to do some things different. the question is, who is really going to do something about it? so what we need to do is to evaluate the plans of the respective candidates. donald trump's plan is to give another massive tax cut to billionaires and big corporations. now, do not boo. vote. i'm going to break you of this habit. now, some people -- because you know, having conversations around the country with folks as i go campaigning and i hear some people say, you know, well, i

remember the economy when those first two years with trump. they were pretty good. and i -- and i say, yeah, it was good. because it was my economy that i gave to him. i had spent the previous eight years cleaning up the mess that republicans had left me. so when i handed over the economy to donald trump, we had had 75 straight months of job growth. and i said, here you go. and all he did with it was give a tax cut to people who did not need one. and drove up the deficit in the process. and now he wants to do it again.

all right, wait, wait. now, in fairness, his other big economic plan is to slap tariffs on everything from food to tvs. now, understand a tariff is any imported good, you just slap an extra cost on it. and if some other country is not playing fair in terms of trade, then you use it as a tool in your tool belt. but this is basically a trump sales tax that could cost the average family almost $4,000 a year. this is not a plan to bring down prices. if you think prices are high now, donald trump's message is you ain't seen nothing yet. when it comes to health care, donald trump's got one answer,

and that is, end obamacare. get rid of the affordable care act, even though 45 million people rely on it. a couple weeks ago, his running mate had the nerve the chutzpah to say that donald trump salvaged the affordable care act. what? donald trump spent his entire presidency trying to dismantle it. and he couldn't even do that right. thanks to john mccain, he didn't do it. and now, eight years after he was elected, after all the arguments against obamacare have been proven to be wrong, and

even folks who don't like me sure like that insurance, when he was asked about it, he said, well, i have a concept of a plan for how i might replace it. now, i want you to think about that. let's say your boss gives you an assignment, says she needs it by friday. friday rolls around. your boss says, so, did you finish that project i asked for? well, i haven't actually started but i do have a concept of a plan. students here at arizona, you could try it with your professors. paper's due. and you just write on a sheet of

paper, concept of a plan. you could try it at home. honey, did you do the dishes? i have a concept of a plan to do the dishes. haven't done them yet. how is that going to go over? if it wouldn't work for you, why should it work for the president of the united states? but the good news is, kamala harris does not have concepts of a plan. she has an actual plan to make your life better. so to bring down the cost of things like groceries, she'll go after corporations that all jacking up prices just like she went after big banks and for-profit colleges when she was attorney general in california. and believe me, when kamala

does, nobody is going to want to stand in her way. i have witnessed it. i remember after the home mortgage crisis, kamala pushed me and my administration harder than any other attorney general in the country. to make sure homeowners got a fair settlement, and it didn't matter that i was a democrat. she wasn't going to let anything stop her from winning as much relief as possible for the families who deserved it. that's who she is. that's the kind of president kamala harris will be. to lower housing costs, kamala is going to cut red tape and work with state and local governments as well as the private sector to build 3 million new homes. concrete plans. she'll give first-time home buyers up to $25,000 to help them with a down payment. concrete plans. to lower health care costs,

kamala already worked with joe biden to take on the drug companies, bring down the cost of insulin, hearing aids, more than 50 prescription drugs. ruben worked on that. he knows about it. and as president, kamala will never stop working to limit out of pocket costs and protect your care. concrete plans. that's who kamala is. and instead of giving more tax cuts to billionaires and people who don't need them and raising prices on working families, kamala is going to give a tax cut to 100 million middle class and working people here in america. so if you're a new parent, you could qualify for a $6,000 tax credit during the first year of your child's life. that will help because raising kids is hard.

she wants to make it easier to afford stuff like a crib or a car seat or diapers. you think donald trump has ever changed a diaper? no. jeevs. jeevs, what is this? if you're starting a small business, kamala harris will give you a $50,000 tax credit to help you get it off the ground. she believes in entrepreneurship. that's who kamala is. that's what she stands for. not concepts of a plan. actual plans. now, if you challenge trump or jd vance on these quote/unquote concepts, they'll fall back on one final answer. this is their go-to.

after everything else makes no sense, they'll go, and it doesn't matter what the issue is, housing, health care, education, paying the bills. they'll blame immigrants. he wants you to believe that if you let him round up whoever he wants and ship them out, all your problems will be solved. now, wait, hold on a second. because this is a serious piece of business. arizona is a border state. you know there are real issues at the border. we can't pretend there are not. we are a nation of laws and we are a nation of immigrants. we were built on immigrants looking for a better life. we also have to make sure that the system works the way it was supposed to. so we have a real problem to

solve. but remember, donald trump was president for four years. he likes to talk about kamala being vice president for four years. we remember you being president, buddy, for four years. and if rounding up and deporting millions of desperate people, many of them women and children, is the answer to everything, looks like we might need an emt right in front here. everybody bend your knees real quick. because sometimes when you stand too long, you get a little faint. she'll be all right. just got to make sure -- and drink your -- drink something if you have it. good job, emts. so the question is, why didn't

he actually solve the problem when he was in power? why was the number of undocumented immigrants basically the same when he left office as when he took office? i'll tell you why. because he didn't have a real plan. and he still doesn't. what he had was talking points. what he had is a concept of a plan, and by the way, it was a mean and ugly concept. you know what would actually help bring order to the border and actually help fix our immigration system? the bipartisan deal that kamala harris supported even though it was written by one of the most conservative republicans in congress, and donald trump deliberately lobbied against it and told republicans don't vote for it because he figured that

if you passed it, he would not be able to engage in the same kind of fearmongering that he's been doing. he cared more about winning an election than he did to solve the problem. vote. we do not need a president who is willing to make problems worse to make him politics better. we need a president who actually cares about solving problems, making your life better. that's what kamala harris will do. and that's why you have to

ruben, ruben, ruben. >> you heard ruben speak about his life. son of an immigrant, single mom, he and his sisters didn't have much. he worked construction and as a meatpacker. anything to help his family. later he served in the marines. in congress he has proven he will stand up to corporate price gouging and work to lower costs. he is the kind of person we need in washington. this is the kind of person that is going to help camila get stuff done. folks that share our values and will do whatever they can to move the country forward.

him teaming up with mark kelly, that is a powerful one-two punch . one of those values that ruben shares and is talked about his freedom. i do not think we've ever had an election with candidates that understand freedom so differently. freedom means the powerful can do whatever they please. i want to fire workers for trying to organize a union. i should be free to do so. they want the freedom to throw out votes.

they want to control what women can and cannot do to their body. in other words, for trump, freedom is getting away with stuff. it is like he said, i do not take any responsibility. i'm not sure any president has ever uttered those words except for donald trump. people were dying. hospitals overrun. that is his idea of freedom. i do what i want and i am not responsible. we have a broader idea of freedom. we believe in the freedom to provide for our families and

breathe clean air and drink clean water. the freedom to send our kids to school. we believe that true freedom gives each of us the right to make decisions about our lives. how we worship and who we marry. what our family looks like. and we believe that freedom requires us to recognize that other people have the freedom to make different choices and it doesn't make them bad people or evil. it doesn't make them enemies of the state. i listened to some of that language. even on contentious issues i have always said there are good people of conscience on both sides of the divide.

i respect anyone who tells them it's not something they would do or support. if we believe in freedom, we should agree that such a deeply personal decision should be made by the woman whose body that is involved, not by politicians. >> it has been fascinating to watch him tie himself into a pretzel on this issue. sees what this party has been doing. he said he would support punishing women that got an abortion. he said he will be there protector.

he overturn roe versus wade and he brag about it. there are bands in 20 states many with no exception for and incest. he's out there thing everybody wanted it this way. donald trump may be confused but let's be clear. if you send ruben gallego to the senate, he will vote to restore the reproductive freedom that women had for 50 years. if congress passes that bill, kamala harris will sign it into law. they understand freedom is

about being able to make the right choice. in arizona you don't even have to wait. there is a chance to vote yes on prop 139 and put women back in control of their decisions. this election is not just about policies, and not just about plans or concepts of the plan, it is about values. the example we want to set for our children and their children. it is about character.

i was growing up, i didn't have a father in the house. i was lucky enough to have people around me. my grandparents, teachers and coaches and my mom. who taught me the difference between right and wrong. who showed me what it meant to have integrity and to be honest and responsible and to treat other people the way i wanted them to treat me. i suspect most of you grew up the same way. i wasn't perfect right off the bat. sometimes i didn't live up to the values and i made mistakes. i tried to learn from them. as i got older, i continue to

benefit from those that reinforced the values. michelle was one of those people. she is still trying to make me a bit better. it wasn't just michelle, it was friends, coworkers and neighbors. even political opponents. i artie mentioned, being here in tucson, i am thinking about john mccain. i don't want to over romanticize our relationship. john was conservative to put it mildly. he ran against me in 2008 and talked about me on the campaign

trail. you know what, he understood that some values transcend party. he believed an honest argument and hearing the views of other people. he didn't demonize political opponents. do you remember at the end of the campaign when a woman at one of his rallies said, you can't vote for that arab, he's not even a citizen and he said hold on, i have had a lot of disagreements with senator obama but i served with him, he is a good man and an honorable man and a patriotic american, shut it down. he knew that if we get in the habit of bending the truth
