1. 0:00Rather than try to unite us to contend
2. 0:02with the crisis of gas or groceries, the
3. 0:05opposition decided to try to divide us.
4. 0:08At first, they pointed to my name and my
5. 0:12faith as if to say, you know, he's a
6. 0:14little different. And when it didn't
7. 0:16work, they tried to guilt me by
8. 0:19association. And when that didn't work,
9. 0:21they went all in on one of the ugliest
10. 0:23campaigns we've seen in our lifetimes.
11. 0:32They might have been pointing to my name
12. 0:33and my faith, but we all know that my
13. 0:35name and my faith aren't the reason you
14. 0:37can't afford your gas. Not the reason
15. 0:39you can't afford your groceries. Not the
16. 0:42reason you can't see a doctor.
17. 0:45Now, as I was campaigning, some of you
18. 0:47would come up and ask me,
19. 0:50"How come you don't hit back? How come
20. 0:52you don't call them racist or hateful?"

22. 0:58for myself.
23. 1:00>> When they come for our democracy, we
24. 1:02[music] won't back down.
25. 1:05>> When they come to divide us against each
26. 1:06other, we won't back down.
