These are the folks whose policies helped devastate our middle class. They drove our economy into a ditch. And we got in there and put on our boots and we pushed and we shoved and we were sweating and these guys were standing, watching us, sipping on a Slurpee.

And they were pointing at us saying, “How come you’re not pushing harder? How come you’re not pushing faster?”

And then when we finally got the car up—and it’s got a few dings and a few dents, it’s got some mud on it, we’re going to have to do some work on it—they point at everybody and say, “Look at what these guys did to your car!”

After we got it out of the ditch! And then they’ve got the nerve to ask for the keys back.

I don’t want to give them the keys back. They don’t know how to drive!
