Published | Video Starts at 48:24

I've never had a silver spoon in my mouth. Very proud of my parents for giving me an ethic of hard work. I've worked in the private sector. I've flipped burgers, worked cashiers, worked cash registers, paid my own way through college. It's extremely offensive. And to hear from one of my colleagues or my competitors in particular, to continue to, I mean, follow their timelines, I would have had to have been elected when I was 13. (48:24–48:33)
