How do you see yourself moving forward should you become a senator here handling the situation with Iran, Israel and Hamas? So I just want to say the difference between us is $46 million of AIPAC spending. They've set a record in this race to help elect my opponent because they know that she'll be a reliable vote, just like she took last week to send your tax dollars to a foreign government that is aiding, arming and abetting the very people who want to foreclose on the possibility of Palestinian self determination. Look, at the end of the day, my job is to take care of you here. I want to be your U.S. senator. (12:08–12:26)
