The video says (transcribed automatically):

But I think that our entire party, our entire movement, and certainly I think the President of the United States is very focused on how do we make it possible for young people to afford the basic components of an American dream. That means good health care, that means if you work hard and play by the rules, you get a good job, you're able to buy a house and all those things. So this is going to be a little bit of a complicated answer because I think we have to take stock of the fact that the reason why housing exploded in the United States of America is in part because we allowed 20 million illegal aliens into our country to buy homes that ought by right go to American citizens. Another reason why housing got too expensive in this country is because we allowed homes to be bought up by Wall Street and foreign investors when those homes ought to go to American citizens. And part of the reason I'm so proud of our work on the Trump administration is that on both of those issues, getting illegal aliens out, stopping. the housing benefits that were going to illegal aliens, but also banning the practice of Wall Street buying up American homes, we've done all of that in the last 18 months.
