"I just want to thank President Agent Orange for perpetuating all of the evil that you've bee perpetuating throughout the United States," he said sarcastically. "I want to thank President Agent Orange for your unsuccessful attempt at the Muslim ban."

"We come together," he proclaimed. "We the people!"
