And you notice the roses. This is a rose garden. And we added a lot of roses. I will tell you this was this was a rose garden that didn’t have too many roses. And if you look now, we cornered the market on roses and you deserve them. So, thank you for being with us in this beautiful spring, this gorgeous spring day at the very famous rose garden.
I want to thank you all for being here. It’s amazing the weekend we celebrate Mother’s Day, honoring the women who raised us and all of the wonderful mothers in our lives for millions of American families.
Sunday will be filled with love and gratitude and joy. Great. I had a great mother by the way. And today we’re honored to be joined by many strong and truly heroic moms who have stood up for their children both in life and in a very profound loss.
Very, very terrible in many just terrible loss many cases. And we have a lot of the greatest people on earth. Angel moms. They’re with us today. They’re great people. They’ve been through so much. And I got to know so many of you during my first during my first days of running. I got to know you and I got to love you.
But uh we want to thank you for being here. Mother’s Day. It’s uh one of the great days. I always think so fondly of my mother. I had a wonderful mother.
Among those with us this afternoon are a number of the angel moms who saw their precious children stolen from them by the open border policies of the radical left. Open borders. I call them stupid borders. Not open.
I call them stupid borders by stupid people that put them there. And the migrant criminals that let they let them pour into our country and bad things happened. Bad things happened. 25 million people came into our country.
