beautiful beautiful s thank you friends delegates and fellow citizens I stand before you this evening with a message of confidence strength and hope four months from now we will have an incredible Victory and we will begin the four greatest years in the history of our country together we will launch a new era of safety prosperity and freedom for citizens of every race religion color and Creed the Discord and Division in our society must be healed we must heal it quickly as Americans we are bound together by a single fate and a shared Destiny We rise together or we fall apart I am running to be president for all of America not half of America because there is no victory in winning for half of America so tonight with faith and devotion I proudly accept your nomination for president of the United States thank you thank you very [Applause] [Applause] much thank you very much and we will do it right going to do it right let me begin this evening by expressing my gratitude to the American people for your outpouring of love and support following the assassination attempt at my rally on [Applause] Saturday as you already know the Assassins bullet came within a quarter of an inch of taking my life so many people people have asked me what happened tell us what happened please and therefore I will tell you exactly what happened and you'll never hear it from me a second time because it's actually too painful to tell it was a warm beautiful day in the early evening in Butler Township in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania [Music] music was loudly playing and the campaign was doing really well I went to the stage and the crowd was cheering wildly everybody was happy I began speaking very strongly powerfully and happily because I was discussing the great job my Administration did on immigration at the southern border we were very proud of it behind me and to the right was a large screen that was displaying a chart of border crossings under my leadership the numbers were absolutely amazing in order to see the chart I started to like this turn to my right and was ready to begin a little bit further turn which I'm very lucky I didn't do when I heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me really really hard on my right ear I said to myself wow what was that it can only be a bullet and moved my right hand to my ear brought it down my hand was covered with blood just absolutely blood all over the place I immediately knew it was very serious that we were under attack and in one movement proceeded to drop to the ground bullets were continuing to fly as very brave Secret Service agents rushed to the stage and they really did they rushed to the stage these are great people at Great risk I will tell you and pounced on top of me so that I would be protected there was blood pouring everywhere and yet in a certain way I felt very safe because I had God on my side I felt [Music] that the amazing thing is that prior to the shot if I had not moved my head at that very last instant the Assassin's bullet would have perfectly hit its Mark and I would not be here tonight we would not be together the most incredible aspect of what took place on that terrible evening in the fading sun was actually seen later in almost all cases as you probably know and when even a single bullet is fired just a single bullet and we had many bullets that were being fired crowds Run for the exits or Stampede but not in this case it's very unusual this massive crowd of tens of thousands of people stood by and didn't move an inch in fact many of them bravely but automatically stood up looking for where the sniper would be they knew immediately it was a sniper and then began pointing at him you can see that if you look at the group behind me that was just a small group compared to what was in front nobody ran and by not stampeding many lives were saved but that isn't the reason that they didn't move the reason is that they knew I was in very serious trouble they saw it they saw me go down they saw the blood and thought actually most did that I was dead they knew it was a shot to the Head they saw the blood and there's an interesting statistic the ears are the bloodiest part if something happens with the ears they bleed more than any other part of the body for whatever reason the doctors told me that I said why is there so much blood he said it's the ears they bleed more so we learned something but they just they just this beautiful crowd they didn't want to leave me they knew I was in trouble they didn't want to leave me and you can see that love written all over their faces incredible people they're incredible people bullets were flying over us yet I felt Serene but now the Secret Service agents were putting themselves in Peril they were in very dangerous territory bullets were flying right over them missing them by a very small amount of inches and then it all stopped our secret service sniper from a much greater distance and with only one bullet used took the Assassin's life took him out I'm not supposed to be here tonight not supposed to be here yes you are yes you [Applause] [Applause] are thank you but I'm not and I'll tell you I stand before you in this Arena only by the grace of almighty God in watching the reports over the last few days many people say it was a providential moment probably was when I Rose surrounded by Secret Service the crowd was confused because they thought I was dead and there was great great sorrow I could see that on their faces as I looked out they didn't know I was looking out they thought it was over but I could see it and I wanted to do something to let him know I was okay I raised my right arm looked at the thousands and thousands of people that were breathlessly waiting and started shouting fight fight fight thank you once my clenched fist went up and it was high into the air you've all seen that the crowd realized I was okay and roared with pride for our country like no crowd I have ever heard before never heard anything like that for the rest of my life I will be grateful for the love shown by that giant audience of Patriots that stood bravely on that fateful evening in Pennsylvania tragically the shooter claimed the life of one of our fellow Americans Cory comparator unbelievable person everybody tells me unbelievable and seriously wounded two other great warriors spoke to them today David Dutch and James copenhaver who great people I also spoke to all three families of the these tremendous people our love and prayers are with them and always will be we're never going to forget them they came for a Great Rally they were serious trumpsters I want to tell you they were serious trumpsters and still are but Corey unfortunately we have to use the past tense he was incredible he was a highly respected former fire chief respected by everybody was accompanied by his wife Helen incredible woman I spoke to her today devastated and two precious daughters he lost his life selflessly acting as a human shield to protect them from flying bullets he went right over the top of them and was hit What a fine man he was h [Applause] I want to thank the fire department and the family for sending his helmet his outfit and uh it was just something and they're going to do something very special when they get it but we did something which cannot match what happened not even close but I am very proud to say that over the past few days we've raised $6.3 million for the families of David James and Corey including from a friend of mine just called up he sent me a check right here I just got it $1 million from Dan nulan thank you Dan and again when speaking to the family I told them I said well going to be sending you a lot of money but it can't compensate they all said the same thing you're right sir we appreciate so much what you're doing but nothing can take the place in the case of Corey and the other two by the way they were very very seriously injured but now they're doing very well they're going to be okay they're going to be doing very well the Warriors so now I ask that we observe a moment of silence in honor of our friend Corey there is no greater love than to lay down one's life for others this is the spirit that for Ed America in her Darkest Hours and this is the love that will lead America back to the summit of human achievement and greatness this is what we need despite such a heinous attack we unite this evening more determined than ever I am more determined than ever and so are you so is everybody in this [Music] [Applause] thank you thank you very [Applause] much our resolve is unbroken and our purpose is unchanged to deliver a government that serves the American people better than ever before nothing will stop me in this Mission because our vision is righteous and our cause is pure no matter what obstacle comes our way we will not break we will not Bend we will not back down and I will never stop fighting for you your family and our magnificent country never and everything I have to give with all of the energy and fight in my heart and soul I pledge to our nation tonight thank you very much I pledge that to our nation going to turn our nation around and we're going to do it very quickly thank you this election should be about the issues facing our country and how to make America successful safe free and great again again in an age when our politics too often divide us now is the time to remember that we are all fellow citizens we are one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all and we must not criminalize dissent or demonize political disagreement which is what's been happening in our country lately at a level that nobody has ever seen before in that Spirit the Democrat Party should immediately stop weaponizing the justice system and labeling their political opponent as an enemy of democracy especially since that is not true in fact I am the one saving democracy for the people of our country and very big news as you probably just read on Monday a major ruling was handed down from a highly respected federal judge in Florida eileene Cannon finding that the prosecutor and the fake documents case against me were totally unconstitutional and the entire case was thrown out of court with all of that publicity thrown out of court if Democrats want to unify our country they should drop these partisan witch hunts which I have been going through for approximately 8 years and they should do that without delay and allow an election to proceed that is worthy of our people we're going to win it anyway but worthy of our people on this journey I am deeply honored to be joined by my amazing wife Melania and Melania thank you very much you also did something really beautiful a letter to America calling for National unity and it really took the Republican Party by surprise I will tell you it was beautiful in fact some very serious people said that we should take that letter and put it as part of the Republican platform that would be an honor wouldn't it right Mr Congressman but it captivated so many so I also want to thank my entire family for being here Don Kimberly Ivanka and Jared Eric and Lara Tiffany and Michael Baron we love our Baron and of course my 10 wonderful grandchildren you saw a few of them up there

going tell you I watch it many times there aren't a lot of entertainers that can do that right you were fantastic thank you very much followed by Eric what was that all about boy that was good I didn't want to really come up here but he was so great and he's such a good young man he went through a lot of trouble and Don last night was incredible he went through so much trouble they got subpoena more than any people probably in the history of the United States every week they get another subpoena from the Democrats crazy Nancy Pelosi the whole thing just boom boom boom they've got to stop that because they're destroying our country we have to work on making America great again not on beating people and we won we beat them in all we beat them on the impeachments we beat them on

thank you Mr Governor thank you very much thank you I'm here tonight to lay out a vision for the whole nation to every citizen whether you're a young or old man or woman Democrat Republican or independent black or white asian Or Hispanic I extend to you a hand of loyalty and of friendship together we will lead America to new heights of greatness like the world has never seen before we were right there in the first term we got hit with Co we did a great job nobody knew what it was but nobody's ever seen an economy preco and then we handed over a stock market that was substantially higher than just prior to co coming in did a great job never got credit for that we got credit for the war and defeating Isis and so many things the great economy the biggest tax cuts ever the biggest regulation cuts ever the creation of space force the rebuilding of our military we did so much we did so much right to try right to try is a big deal we got right to try they were trying to get that for 52 years somebody's terminally ill and hopefully there's nobody in this audience but it does happen a lot they're terminally ill and they can't use our new space age drugs and other things that we wear Ahad we have the greatest doctors in the world the greatest Laboratories in the world and you can't do it they've been trying to get that approved for 52 years wasn't that easy the insurance companies didn't want to do it they didn't want the risk the labs didn't want to do it because if it didn't work people are pretty far down the line toward death they didn't want to do it the doctors didn't want to have it on their record so I got everybody into an office 52 years they tried sounds simple but it's not and I got them to agree that somebody that needs it will instead of going to Asia Europe or someplace or if you have no money going home and dying just die we got them to sign an agreement agree to it where they're not going to sue anybody they're going to get all of this stuff they're going to get it really fast and what's happened is we're saving thousands and thousands of lives it's incredible right to try it's great feeling under our leadership the United States will be respected again no Nation will question our power no enemy will doubt our might our borders will be Totally Secure our economy will soar we will return Law and Order to our streets patriotism to our schools and importantly we will restore peace stability and Harmony all throughout the world but to achieve this future we must first rescue our nation from failed and even incompetent leadership with we have totally incompetent leadership this will be the most important election in the history of our country under the current Administration we are indeed a nation in Decline we have an inflation crisis that is making life unaffordable ravaging the incomes of working and lowincome families and crushing just simply crushing our people like never before they've never seen anything like it we also have an illegal immigration crisis and it's taking place right now as we sit here in this beautiful Arena it's a massive Invasion at our Southern border that has spread misery crime poverty disease and destruction to communities all across our land nobody's ever seen anything like it then there is an international crisis the likes of which the world has seldom been part of nobody can believe what's happening war is now raging in Europe in the Middle East a growing Spectre of conflict hangs over Taiwan Korea the Philippines and all of Asia and our planet is teetering on the edge of World War II and this will be a war like no of the war because of Weaponry the weapons are no longer army tanks going back and forth shooting at each other these weapons are obliteration it's time for a change this Administration can't come close to solving the problems we're dealing with very tough very Fierce People they're fierce people and we don't have Fierce People we have people that are a lot less than Fierce except when it comes to cheating on elections and a couple of other things then they're fierce then they're fierce so tonight I make this pledge to the great people of America I will end the devastating inflation crisis immediately bring down interest rates and lower the cost of energy we will drill baby drill [Applause] can you believe what they're doing but by doing that we will lead a large scale decline in prices prices will start to come down energy raised it they took our energy policies and destroyed them then they immediately went back to them but by that time so much was lost but we will do it at levels that nobody's ever seen before and we'll end lots of different things we'll start paying off debt and start lowering taxes even further we gave you the largest tax cut we'll do it more know people don't realize I brought taxes way down way way down and yet we took in more revenues the following year than we did when the tax rate was much higher most people said how did you do that because it was incentive everybody was coming to the country they were bringing back billions and billions of dollars into our country the companies made it impossible to bring it back the tax rate was too high and the legal complications were far too great I changed both of them and hundreds of billions of dollars by Apple and so many other companies would brought back into our nation and we had an economy the likes of which nobody no Nation had ever seen China we were beating them at levels that were incredible and they know it they know we'll do it again but we'll do it even better I will end the illegal immigration crisis by closing our border and finishing the wall most of which I've already built on the wall we were dealing with a very difficult Congress and I said oh that's okay we won't go to Congress I call it an invasion we gave our military almost $800 billion I said I'm going to take a little of that money because this is an invasion and we built most of the wall is already built and we built it through using the funds because what's more what's better than that we have to stop The Invasion into our country that's killing hundreds of thousands of people a year we're not going to let that happen I will end every single intern AAL crisis that the current Administration has created including the horrible war with Russia and Ukraine which would have never happened if I was president and the War caused by the attack on Israel which would have never happened if I was President Iran was broke Iran had no money now Iran has $250 billion they made it all over the last 2 and A2 years they were broke I watched the other day on a show called deface the nation has anyone seen it and they had a congressman who was a Democrat say well whether you like them or not Iran was broke dealing with Trump I told China and other countries if you buy from Iran we will not let you do any business in this country and we will put tariffs on every product you do send in of 100% or more and they said to me well I think that's about it they weren't going to buy any oil and were ready to make a deal Iran was going to make a deal with us and then we had that horrible horrible result that we'll never let happen again the election result we never going to let that happen again they Ed Co to cheat we're never going to let it happen again and they took off all the sanctions and they did everything possible for Iran and now Iran is very close to having a nuclear weapon which would have never happened this is a shame what what this Administration the damage at this Administration has done and I say it often if you took the 10 worst Presidents in the history of the United States think of it the 10 worst added them up they will not have done the damage that Biden has done only going to use the term once Biden I'm not going to use the name anymore just one time the damage that he's done to this country is Unthinkable it's Unthinkable together we will restore Vision strength confidence and what we're going to have a thing called common sense making most of our decisions actually it's all common sense just a few short years ago under my presidency we had the most secure border and best economy in the history of our country in the history of the world we had the greatest economy in the history of the world we had never done anything like it we were beating every country including China by Leaps and Bounds nobody had seen anything like it we had no inflation soaring incomes we going nobody's nobody can believe it you can't believe what happened four years ago is happening now in reverse and the world was at peace inflation has been a killer for our country no matter what you make it it doesn't matter because inflation is eating you alive people that were putting away money they were making great wages the highest they've ever made but they were putting away a lot of money now they are just being destroyed they're not putting away anything they're barely living they're going into savings accounts they're taking out their money to live because of inflation inflation remember it's called a country Buster you can go back to Germany from 100 years ago you can go back to any country that suffered great inflation we've suffered the worst inflation we've ever had but go back and see what's happened to those countries we've had the worst inflation we've ever had under this person but in less than 4 years our opponents have turned incredible success into unparallel tragedy and failure it's been a tremendous failure today our cities are flooded with illegal aliens Americans are being squeezed out of the labor force and their jobs are taken by the way you know who's taking the jobs the jobs that are created 107% of those jobs are taken by illegal aliens and you know who's being hurt the most by millions of people pouring into our country the black population and the Hispanic population because they're taking the jobs from our black population our Hispanic population and they're also taking them from unions the unions are suffering because of it thank you thank you I like you too thank you very much inflation has wiped out the life savings of our citizens and forced the middle class into a state of depression and despair that's what it is it's Despair and depression we cannot and will not let this continue less than four years ago we were a great nation and we will soon be a great nation again we're going to be a great nation again thank you with proper leadership every disaster we are now enduring will be fixed and it will be fixed very very quickly so tonight whether you've supported me in the past or not I hope you will support me in the future because I will bring back the American dream that's what we're going to do you don't even hear about the American dream anymore with great humility I am asking you to be excited about the future of our country be excited be excited and by the way the news reports all look at all of those big networks look at them they're all here but every one of them has said this could be the most organized best run and most enthusiastic Convention of either party that they have ever seen every single one and it's true it's true and there's love in the room there's great love in the [Applause] room so I better finish strong otherwise we'll blow it and we can't let that happen now this was great all of the great people that spoke and everybody hit a home run I mean there's not one that I can think of where I said oh gee that wasn't great every single person I refuse to be the only one don't do that to me they're already getting ready see I gave him an idea now we had a this was a great convention this was uh I think we're actually going to go home and miss it you know usually with a con first of all look at these crowds you'd never have this at a convention look at these crowds love it's about love this week the entire Republican party has formally adopted an agenda for America's renewal and you saw that agenda and it's very short compared to the long boring meaningless agendas of the past including the Democrats they write these things that are hundreds of pages long and they never read them after they done in their case fortunately they don't read them because they're pretty bad it's a series of bold promises that we will swiftly Implement when you give us a republican house and Mr speaker thank you very much we have our great speaker of the house with us tonight Mr speaker thank you very much thank you hey Republican Senate we have many senators here and send me back to our beautiful white house just a few short months from now we're talking about just months it can't come fast enough we have to get it done first we must get economic relief to our citizens starting on day one we will drive down prices and make America affordable again we have to make it affordable it's not affordable people can't live like is under this Administration our current Administration groceries are up 57% gasoline is up 60 and 70% mortgage rates have quadrupled and the fact is it doesn't matter what they are because you can't get the money anywhere can't buy houses young people can't get any financing to buy a house the total household costs have increase an average of $228,000 per family under this Administration Republicans have a plan to bring down prices and bring them down very very rapidly by slashing energy costs we will in turn reduce the cost of Transportation manufacturing and all household goods so much starts with energy and remember we have more Liquid Gold under our feet than any other country by far we are a nation that has the opportunity to make an absolute Fortune with its energy we have it and China does it under the Trump Administration just three and A2 years ago we were energy independent but soon we will actually be better than that we will be energy dominant and Supply not only ourselves but we will supply the rest of the world with numbers that nobody has ever seen and we will reduce our debt 36 trillion we will start reducing that and we will also reduce your taxes still further next and by the way they want to raise your taxes four times think of it and all my life I grew up watching politicians I always love politics I guess I was on the other side I'd watched Pol and they were always talking about we will give you a tax cut we will give you a tax cut we my whole life I was watching I will give you a tax cut right Mr Congressman that's all they talked about this is the only Administration that said we're going to raise your taxes by four times what you're paying now and people are supposed to vote for them I've never heard it you're paying too much we're going to reduce your taxes still further we gave you the biggest one as I said we're going to give you more and it's going to lead to tremendous growth we want growth in our country that's what's going to pay off our debt and next we will end the ridiculous and actually in incredible waste of taxpayer dollars that is fueling the inflation crisis they spent trillions of dollars on things having to do with the green new scam it's a scam and that's caused tremendous inflationary pressures in addition to the cost of energy and all of the trillions of dollars that are sitting there not yet spent we will redirect that money for important projects like roads Bridges dams and we will not allow it to be spent on meat meaningless green new scam ideas and I will end the electric vehicle mandate on day one thereby saving the US Auto industry from complete obliteration which is happening right now and saving us customers thousands thousand and thousands of dollars per car and right now as we speak large factories just started are being built across the border in Mexico so with all the other things happening our border and they're being built by China to make cars and to sell them into our country no tax no anything the United aut workers ought to be ashamed for allowing this to happen and the leader of the the United Auto Workers should be fired immediately and every single aut worker Union and non union should be voting for Donald Trump because we're going to bring back car manufacturing and we're going to bring it back fast they're building some of the largest Auto plants anywhere in the world think of it in the world we're going to bring it back we're going to make them we don't mind the we don't mind that happening but those plants going to be built in the United States and our people are going to man those plants and if they don't agree with us we'll put a tariff of approximately 100 to 200% on each car and they will be unsalable in the United States we have long been taken advantage of by other countries and think of it often times these other countries are cons considered so-called allies they've taken advantage of us for years we lose jobs we lose revenue and they gain everything and wipe out our businesses wipe out our people I stopped it for four years I stopped it and we're really ready to make changes like nobody had seen before and remember usmca I got rid of NAFTA the worst trade deal ever made and replaced it with usmca which is they say the best trade deal ever made actually probably the best trade deal was the deal I made with China where they buy $50 billion worth of our product they were buying nothing they buy $50 billion worth they had to but I don't even talk about it because of Co I don't even mention it frankly because of what happened with the China [Music] virus we will not let countries come in take our jobs and plunder our nation they come into the they plunder our nation the way they will sell their product in America is to build it in America very simple Build It in America and odly in America [Applause] and this very simple formula and Congress has to go along with us and they will this very simple formula will create massive numbers of jobs we will take over the Auto industry again and many many hundreds of thousands of jobs we lost so many jobs over the years if you go back 20 25 years they've stolen going to China and Mexico about 68% of our Auto industry manufacturing jobs we're going to get them all back we're going to get them all back every one of them at the center of our plan for economic relief are massive tax cuts for workers that include something else that's turned out to be very popular actually here it's very popular in this building and all those hotels that I saw that are so nice I'm staying in a nice one it's called no tax on tips no tax on tips no tax on tips I got that by having dinner recently in Nevada where we're leading by about 14 points hello I'll see you there very soon everybody we're having dinner at a beautiful restaurant in the Trump building on the strip and it's a great building and the waitress comes over how's everything going really nice person how's everything oh Sarah it's so tough the government's after me all the time on tips tips tips I said well they give you cash would they be able to find them she said actually and I didn't know this she said very little cash is given it's all put right on the check and they come in and they take so much of our money it's just ridiculous and they don't believe anything we say and they've just hired as you know 88,000 agents to to go after him even [Music] more and I said this shows the level of my you know most people go out they hire Consultants they pay millions of dollars but I said to her let me just ask you a question would you be happy if you had no tax on tips she said what a great idea I got my information from a very smart waitress that's better than spending billions of dollars and everybody everybody loves it waitresses and caddies and drivers and everybody it's a large large group of people that are being really hurt badly they make money let them keep their money I'm going to protect Social Security and Medicare Democrats are going to destroy Social Security and Medicare because all of these people by the millions they're coming in they're going to be on Social Security and Medicare and other things and you're not able to afford they are destroying your Social Security and your Medicare under my plan incomes will Skyrocket inflation will vanish completely jobs will come roaring back and the middle class will prosper like never ever before and we're going to do it very rapidly but no hope or dream we have for America can succeed unless we stop the illegal immigrant Invasion the worst that's ever been seen anywhere in the world there's never been an invasion like this anywhere third world countries would fight with sticks and stones not to let this happen The Invasion at our Southern border we will stop it and we will stop it quickly you heard Tom homman yesterday Tom homman put him in charge and just sit back and [Applause] watch Brandon Jud a border patrol he's incredible these guys that you know they they really their job is a lot easier if they don't have to do anything but they want to their Patriots Brandon Jud border patrol ice ice goes out you have to see what ice does with MS13 you have these These are probably the worst gang and Ice goes in there and I know a lot of people in these rows here and they're very tough people but they don't want to do this job they'll go into a pack of MS13 Killers they're the worst probably the worst gangs in the world we have thousands of them I move thousands and thousands out in my four years we moved them out and it was a pleasure but ice would go right into a pack of these killers and you see fists flying you see everything flying and then they take them they put them in a Patty wagon they take them back and they get them out of our country and the other countries weren't accepting them back and I called up and I said tell them that we're not giving them economic aid anymore and the next day I got calls from all of these countries that were terminated billions of dollars we spend on economic aid to countries that does US frankly no good and the next day I was called by everybody I couldn't take all the call sir sir what's the problem I said you won't take your Killers back that you sent in Caravans into America you won't take them back well sir uh if you'd like us to we would give very serious consideration to doing that and within 24 hours they were being taken back for years and years when I first came in they said President Obama tried to get him to go back and they wouldn't accept him they' put planes on the runway so you couldn't lead the plane they'd closed the road so you couldn't take the buses it all have to turn back as soon as I said no more economic aid of any kind to any country that does that they called back and they said sir it would be our great honor to take MS13 we love them very much we love them very much sir we'll take them back at the heart of the Republican platform is our pledge to end this border Nightmare and fully restore the sacred and Sovereign borders of the United States of America and we're going to do that on day one that means two things in day one right drill baby drill and close our borders and by the way way and I think everybody as a republican as a patriot in this room and most Democrats we want people to come into our country but they have to come into our country legally Legally less than four years ago I handed this Administration the strongest Border in American history but you can see on the chart that saved my life that was the chart that saved my life I said look it I'm so proud of it I think it's one of the greatest it was done by the border patrol one of the greatest charts I've ever seen it showed everything just like that you know the chart oh there it is that's pretty good wow last time I put up that chart I never really got to look at it but without that chart I would not be here today never got to look at it I said you got to see this chart I was so proud of it and by the time I got to there I never got to see it that day but I'm seeing it now and I was very proud if you look at the arrow on the bottom that's the lowest level the one on the bottom he heavy red arrow that's the lowest level of illegal immigrants ever to come into our country in recorded history right there and that was my last week in office and then you see what happened after I left look at the rest and if you go out a little bit further it's getting to be a little bit old but I love it anyway right but you can go much higher with those numbers look what happened right after that The Invasion began we had the opposite that we stopped The Invasion but the invasion that we stopped was peanuts by comparison to what happened after I left look at what happened after I left they took over our country we ended all catch and release we shut down Asylum fraud we stopped human trafficking and forged historic agreements to keep illegal aliens on foreign soil we want them to stay on their soil under the Trump Administration if you came in illegally you were apprehended immediately and you were deported you went right back the current Administration terminated every single one of those great Trump policies that I put in place to seal the Border I wanted to seal border again come in but come in Legally you know how unfair it is so many people hundreds of thousands of people have been working for years to come into our country and now they see these people pour into our country at levels that are unprecedented so unfair and we're not going to do it we're not going to stand for it they suspended wall construction ended remain in Mexico we had a policy remain in Mexico you think that was easy to get from the Mexican Government but I said you must give it to us if you don't give it to us there will be repercussions and they gave it to us but not easy cancelled our safe third agreements demolished title 42 implemented Nationwide Catch and Release let Catch and Release where we catch them and release them into our country I had we catch them and release them into Mexico there's a slight difference and took 93 this is the previous administration 93 executive actions to throw open our border to the world the entire world is pouring into our country because of this very foolish Administration the greatest invasion in history is taking place right here in our country they are coming in from every corner of the earth not just from South America but from Africa Asia the Middle East they're coming from everywhere they're coming at levels that we've never seen before it is an invasion indeed and this Administration does absolutely nothing to stop them they're coming from prisons they're coming from jails they're coming from mental institutions and insane asylums I you know the Press is always on me because I say this has anyone seen Silence of the Lambs the late great Hannibal lecta he'd love to have you for dinner that's insane asylums they're emptying out their inane asylums and terrorists are coming in at numbers that we've never seen before bad things are going to happen meanwhile our crime rate is going up while crime statistics all over the world are going down because they're taking their criminals they're putting them into our country a certain country and I happen to like the president of that country very much but he's been getting great publicity because he's a wonderful Shepherd of the country he says how well the country is doing because their crime rate is down and he said he's training all of these rough people they're rough rough rough he's training them and I've been reading about this for two years I think oh that's wonderful let's take a look at it but then I realized he's not training them he's sending all of his criminals his drug dealers his people that are in jails he's sending them all to the United States and he's different in that he doesn't say that he's trying to convince everybody what a wonderful job he does in running the country well he doesn't do a wonderful job and by the way have I ran one of the countries many countries many many countries from all over I would be worse than any of them I would have had the place totally emptied out already [Applause] but we become a Dumping Ground for the rest of the world which is laughing at us they think we're stupid and they can't believe that they're getting away with what they're getting away with but they're not going to be getting away with it for long that's what I can tell you in Venezuela karacus high crime high crime karacus Venezuela really dangerous place but not anymore because in Venezuela crime is down 72% in fact if they would ever win this election I hate to even say that we will have our next Republican convention in Venezuela because it will be safe our cities our cities will be so unsafe we won't be H we will not be able to have it there in El Salvador MERS are down by 70% why are they down now he would have you convinced that because he's trained murderers to be wonderful people no they're down because they're sending their murderers to the United States of America this is going to be very bad and bad things are going to happen and you're seeing it happen all the time that's why to keep our family safe the Republican platform promises to launch the largest deportation operation in the history of our country even larger than that of President Dwight D Eisenhower from many years ago you know he was a moderate but he believed very strongly in borders he had the largest deportation operation we've ever had just recently I spoke to The Grieving mother of Joselyn Nary a wonderful woman a precious 12-year-old girl from Houston who last month was tied up assaulted and strangled to death after walk to the convenience store just a block away from her house her body was dumped near the side of the road in a shallow Creek found by some onlookers who couldn't believe what they had witnessed charged with joselyn's heinous murder or two illegal aliens from Venezuela who came across our border were in custody and were then released into the country by this horrible horrible administ ation that we have right now I also met recently with the heartbroken mother and sister of Rachel Moren Rachel was a 37-year-old mom of five beautiful children who was brutally raped and murdered while out on a run she wanted to keep herself in good shape it was very important to her she was murdered the monster responsible first killed another woman in El Salvador before he was led into America by the White House this White House let them in he then attacked a 9-year-old girl and her mother in a home invasion in Los Angeles before murdering Rachel in Maryland traveled all throughout the country doing tremendous damage Rachel's mother will never be the same I spent time with her she will never be the same I've also met with the wonderful family of lake and Riley the brilliant 22-year-old nursing student she was so proud of being first in her class who was out for a jog on the campus of the University of Georgia when she was assaulted beaten and horrifically killed yet another American life was stolen by a Criminal Alien set free by this Administration and these were incredible people we're talking about these were incredible people who died tonight America This Is My Vow I will not let these killers and criminals into our country I will keep our sons and daughters safe as we bring security to our streets we will help bring stability to the world I was the first president in modern times to start no new Wars you know we were the toughest we were the most respected and you you saw this hungry strong country run by a very powerful tough leaders tough guy press doesn't like him because he's tough and uh he came out recently they were asking him at an interview the whole world is exploding what's happening what's going on Victor orbon prime minister of Hungary very tough [Music] man he said I don't want people coming into my country and blowing up our shopping centers and killing people but they said to them tell us what's going wrong what's happening what is it he said there's only one way you're going to solve it you got to bring president Trump back to the United States because he kept everybody at [Music] Bay he used a word I wouldn't use because I can't use that word because you'd say it was bragados as the Press would say he was a bragard I'm not a bragger but Victor Orban said it he said Russia was afraid of him China was afraid of him everybody was afraid of him nothing was going to happen the whole world was at peace and now the world is blowing up around us all of these things that you read about were not going to happen under President Bush Russia invaded Georgia under President Obama Russia took Crimea under the current Administration Russia is after all of Ukraine under President Trump Russia took nothing we defeated 100% of Isis in Syria and Iraq something that was said to take five years sir it will take five years Years sir we did it in a matter of a couple of months we have a great military our military is not woke it's just some of the fools on top that are [Applause] woke I got along very well North Korea Kim Jong-un I got along very well with him the Press hated when I said that how could you get along with him well you know it's nice to get along with somebody has a lot of nuclear weapons or otherwise is it see in the old days they say that's a wonderful thing now they say how could you possibly do that but now I got along with them and we stopped the missile launchers from North Korea now North Korea is acting up again but when we get back I get along with him he'd like to see me back too I think he misses me if you want to know the truth our opponents inherited a world at peace and turned it into a a planet of War we're a planet of war look at that attack on Israel look at what's happening with Ukraine the cities are just bombed out how can people live like that where buildings massive buildings are falling to the ground it began to unravel with the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan the worst humiliation in the history of our country we have never had a humiliation like that 13 heroic US service members were tragically and needlessly killed 45 others were horrifically wounded nobody ever talks about them no arms no legs face explosions horrifically horrifically wounded and by the way we have a man in this room who's running for the US Senate from a great state Nevada Named Sam Brown who paid the ultimate price thank you Sam thank you Sam thank you he paid the biggest price probably ever paid by anybody that is running for office and I think he's going to do great he's running against a person that is not good not respected a total lightweight but Sam I think paid really we were talking about it with some of the Senators that are working so hard for Sam but he paid the biggest price of any Senator ever to run for the Senate I don't think anybody's ever what he did he was a real hero a really great person and he's running and I hope that everybody gets out and votes for Sam [Applause] Brown and we also left behind $85 billion worth of military equipment along with many American citizens were left behind many many American citizen emboldened by that disaster Russia invaded Ukraine they saw this group of people that were incompetent we took the soldiers out first no no we're going to take the soldiers out second if they would have followed my plan we had a great plan but the plan only kicked in if they did everything perfectly and they weren't doing things perfectly so we said it doesn't kick in you know 18 months in a fistan we didn't have one s they were killing them left and right snipers and I spoke to the head of the Taliban you've heard this story Abdul still there still the head of the Taliban the presscot on me why would you speak to him I said because that's where the killing is I don't have to speak to somebody that has nothing to do with it and I told him don't ever do that don't ever do that again don't ever ever do that again you're got to stop because during the the Obama Administration many great people and soldiers but a lot of soldiers were being killed from long distance I said if you keep doing that you're going to be hit harder than anybody's ever been hit by a country before and he said I understand your Excellency call me your Excellency I wonder if he calls the other guy your Excellency I doubt it the other guy gave him everything I mean what kind of a deal was that he walked out gave him everything do you know that right now Afghanistan is one of the largest sellers of weapons in the world they're selling the brand new beautiful weapons that we gave them but think of it he actually said to me but why but why do you show me a picture of my home I said you'll have to ask your people or one of your wives but he could figure it out and for 18 months we had not one attack on an American Soldier by the Taliban 18 and then we had that horrible day where soldiers were killed I was not there because of a ridiculous election but we had that horrible attack and uh they also gave up bam one of the biggest bases anywhere in the world air bases anywhere in the world the longest runways most powerful hardened thickened runways we gave it up and I liked it not because of Afghanistan I liked it because of China it's one hour away from where China makes their nuclear weapons and you know who has it now China has it now we were keeping that and now China is likewise circling Taiwan and Russian warships and nuclear submarines are operating 60 miles off the coast in Cuba do you know that no the Press refuses to write about it if that were me running this country and we had nuclear submarines in Cuba I will tell you that headlines every day would be what's wrong with our president you don't even hear this you're not hearing about this Russia has nuclear submarines and warships 60 miles away Mr congressman from Miami by by the way happens to be here correct in Cuba and that would not be stood for if it were somebody else they don't even me they don't want to mention it but now maybe they will and the entire world I tell you this we want our hostages back and they better be back before I assum office or you will be paying a very big price with our victory in November the years of war weakness and Chaos will be over I don't have wars I had no Wars other than Isis which I defeated but that was a war that was started we had no Wars I could stop Wars with a telephone call could stop Wars with just a telephone for if properly stated it would never start we will replenish our military and build an iron Dome missile defense system to ensure that no enemy can strike our homeland and this great Iron Dome will be built entirely in the USA we're going to build it the USA and Wisconsin Wisconsin just like I gave you that massive ship contract and you're doing a very nice job Governor right thank you governor and they're doing a great job in fact I had a little design change we gave them a tremendous for essentially what we used to call destroyers these are now the most beautiful they look like yachs I said we have to take the bow and we have to make it a little nicer and a little point at the top instead of a flat nose and the people at the shipyard said this guy sort of knows what what he's doing we most beautiful ships right governor and everybody sitting over there and it was a big contract that everybody wanted I gave it to Wisconsin but we're going to have a lot of that built right here and the state of Wisconsin and all other states Israel has an Iron Dome they have a missile defense system 342 missiles were shot into Israel and only one got through a little bit it was badly wounded it fell to the ground but most of them are and Ronald Reagan wanted this many years ago but we really didn't have the technology many years ago remember they called it Starship spaceship anything to mock him but he was a very good president very very good but now we have unbelievable technology and why should other countries have this and we don't no no we're going to build an iron Dome over our country and we're going to be sure that nothing can come and harm our people and again from an econom IC development standpoint we're going to make it all right here no more sending it out to other countries in order to help it's America First America first we will Unleash the Power of American innovation and as we do we will soon be on the verge of finding the cures to cancer Alzheimer's disease and many other diseases we're going to get to the bottom of it you remember this gentleman that I don't want to mention other than one time I had to because when you say you're the 10 worst I had to do it I didn't want anybody to be confused but this man said we're going to find the cure to cancer nothing happened we're going to get to the cure for cancer and Alzheimer's and so many other things we're so close to doing something great but we need a leader that will let it be done we will not have men playing in women's sports that will end immediately and we will restore and renovate our nation's once great cities making them safe clean and beautiful again and that includes our nation's capital which is a horrible killing field so many things they leave from Wisconsin they go to look at the Washington Monument they end up getting stabbed killed or shot we will be very soon very proud of of our Capital again Washington DC America is on the cusp of a new golden age but we will have the courage to seize it we're going to take it we're going to make it urrent I mean we're going to bring this into a golden age like never seen before remember this China wants to do it Japan wants to do it all of these countries want to do it we have to produce Mass massive amounts of energy if we're going to produce the new if you look at some of the things that have been done and some of the things that we're going to do but AI needs tremendous T literally twice the electricity that's available now in our country can you imagine but instead we're spending places where they recharge electric cars they built eight chargers at a certain location toward the Midwest eight charges for $9 billion think of them as a tank for filling up your gas think of it they spent $9 billion on eight charges three of which didn't work and if you were going to do this all over our country this crazy electric mandate if you're going to do this all and by the way I'm all for electric they have their application but if somebody wants to buy a gas powered car gasoline powered car or a hybrid they're going to be able to do it and we're going to make that change on day one so to conclude just a few short days ago my journey with you nearly ended we know that and and yet here we are tonight all gathered together talking about the future promise and a total renewal of a thing we love very much it's called America we live in a world of Miracles none of us knows God's plan or where life's Adventure will take us I want to thank Franklin graah for being here tonight he's an outstanding man he wrote me a note recently I have a lot of respect for him sir I love your storytelling I think it's great in front of these big rallies but sir please do me one favor it won't make any difference please don't use any foul language I was a little embarrassed I said he said it won't make any different actually it does the story is not quite as good but I've been very good the story is not quite as good to be honest I've got to have a little talk with Franklin but he was great he's a great gentleman his father was so incredible Billy Graham my father used to love taking me to see Billy grah my father would take me to see Billy grah at Yankee Stadium he had the biggest rallies you've ever seen he was a good rally guy too but he'd get up and he was a fantastic guy my father loved Billy Graham but I love Franklin graah I think Franklin's been fantastic and I'm trying I'm working so hard to adhere to his note to me me I'm working hard on it Franklin but if the events of last Saturday make anything clear it is that every single moment we have on Earth is a gift from God we have to make the most of every day for the people and for the country that we love the attacker in Pennsylvania wanted to stop our movement but the truth is the movement has never been about me it has always been about you it's your movement it's the biggest movement in the history of our country by far can't be St it can't be stopped it has always been about the hardworking patriotic citizens of America for too long our nation has settled for too little we settled for too little we've given everything to other nations to other people you have been told to lower your expectations and to accept less for your families I am here tonight with the opposite message your expectations are not big enough not big enough it is time to start expecting and demanding the best leadership in the world leadership that is bold Dynamic Relentless and fearless we can do that we are Americans ambition is our heritage greatness is our Birthright but as as long as our energies are spent fighting each other our destiny will remain Out Of Reach and that's not acceptable we must instead take that energy and use it to realize our country's true potential and write our own thrilling chapter of the American story we can do it together we will unite we are going to come together and success will bring us together it is a story of love sacrifice and so many other things and remember the word devotion it's unmatched devotion our American ancestors crossed the Delaware survived the icy winter at Valley Forge and defeated a mighty Empire to establish our cherished Republic they fought so hard they lost so many they pushed thousands and thousand thousands of miles across a dangerous Frontier taming the Wilderness to build a life and a magnificent home for their family they packed their families into covered wagons treed across hazardous Trails scaled towering mountains and braved rivers and Rapids to stake their claim on the wide open new and very beautiful Frontier when our way of life was threatened American Patriots marched onto the the battlefield raced into enemy strongholds and stared down death and stared down those enemies to keep alive the flame of Freedom at Yorktown Gettysburg and Midway they joined the roll call of immortal Heroes so many hor just so many Heroes so many great great people and we have to cherish those people we can't forget those people we have to cherish those people and building monuments to those great people is a good thing not a bad thing they saved our country no challenge was too much no hardship was too great no enemy was too Fierce together these Patriots Soldier all and endured and they prevailed because they had faith in each other faith in their country and above all they had faith in their [Applause] God just like our ancestors we must now come together rise above past differences any disagreements have to be put aside and go forward United as one people one nation pledging allegiance to one great
