Ossoff: "The President posting about the Obamas like a Klansman" | Full Speech | 02.07.2026

This is the cruelest and most arrogant group of people who have ever ascended to high office in the United States. And their cruelty and their arrogance are matched only by their incompetence. The president said he'd bring down prices on day one. Instead, his tariffs keep driving prices higher and higher since he took office. Coffee's up 20%. Ground beef in the power bill, both up 13%. Apples up 10%. I could go on. All in one year. Unemployment is rising, too. Listen to this. (07:53–08:03)
