If the B2 is invisible, just announce you’ve built 100 of them and don’t build them.
A president of the United States, again, has to bring people together, have a position. We need to be able to penetrate these people when they are involved in these plots and these plans. And we have to give the local authorities the ability to penetrate to disrupt. That’s what we need to do.
I can’t work any harder. I can’t do any more. I am literally just blown away and humbled by the volunteers and how hard they’re working. I think they’ve got a sense that they’re going to be part of something bigger than themselves.
