i m telling you, you re a lot more popular than you think you are. people watch this show. popular? not true. [ cheers and applause ] i m good with my popularity level. that shows just how popular he is. you raise a lot of money in small amounts when you come on the show. look, i need to be heard. i miss the debates, i didn t mean to criticize them. i think if you look at who should be in the debate, how about a guy with a record? how about a guy with experience? how about a guy who thinks we need fair trade with china? not unfair trade. how about a guy who thinks of the job of a president is to stand up for the working people and small businesses of america? you talked about obama being absent, not in touch. you know why? he s out raising $1 billion, joe. he doesn t have time to talk to
hampshire. i think you visited iowa once. it was all about new hampshire for you. for one of those silly debates. the if you do well here, let s say you come in second or a close third, do you worry about next steps, given the fact that you haven t looked far ahead to a place like south carolina or florida. what will your finances be like? will you call on more money from your father to push forward? why would my father want to do something. he s a humanitarian. last time i looked, politics doesn t fall into the humanitarian campaign. he s put in some money. i ve put in a little bit. he s put in a little bit. others from outside have put in a little bit. but here s the deal, like if you were a stock trading on the stock market. if you exceed earnings expectations people invest in you. so we have to prove that we are electable coming out of new hampshire. if we can exceed market expectations, people are going to invest. because they will see we re worth investing in, worth vol
