I made a speech last week, which is really wonderful, Wisconsin, and I wanted to speak about the great job I've done on the border. And my people said, sarah, nobody cares about that. I said, what do you mean? I got elected on [border security] twice, actually, because I got elected the first time, 2016, and after I left, it became horrible. Horrible. Second time was far worse. The what it was in 2024, it was so bad. Far worse than 2016. 2016 was like a pleasure trip by comparison to what it became. (21:38–21:49)
