CNN TV Host: This is for anyone who may be taken aback by my comments. I don't really care if you
are. I hope you are. For years now, it has been, you know, two and a half years since
he officially entered the political arena.
TV Host: Donald Trump, congratulations. You have made this country a land where sleaze is not just
the language of politics, but the political environment itself.
CNN TV Host: His supporters made excuses, continue to make excuses for him. You also might want to do
some self examination. What does it say about you? That no matter what, you continue to
make excuses for this man, for his vile behavior, this sort of vile behavior. Doesn't that make
you just as bad, if not worse than him? And for all of you who over the last few years
have uttered that tired, lazy, uninformed, uneducated, ignorant response of calling me
and others who point out racist behavior, racist. You know what you can go do....?
F*** Trump.
Leftists: We don't want to f*****g hear from you. We got nothing to say to you. Get the f*** away
from us. We don't want anything to do with you.
It's f*****g over. The discourse is over. We have argued, we have pondered. The discourse
is over. We're not going to be polite anymore. We're going to fight back.
We begin with several developing stories here on a Friday night, first, the violent and
bloody
clashes outside.
violent scuffles ensued. All of this becoming a part of a pattern of unrest,
fueled by antagonism and divisive rhetoric. Kelly Burke is charged with disorderly conduct.
Investigators say she was screaming obscenities at a teenage girl, all because she was wearing
a t-shirt supporting president Donald Trump,
You're a piece of shit.
we are going to try to stop this.
Donald Trump's campaign is surrounded by controversy this morning after a weekend of chaos and
violence. It is a result of the culture of Trump supporters. We need a revolution.
Are you suggesting that the entire Trump vote was racist and by racists? I think, yes.
People of color who were attacked by their fellow citizens who feel emboldened to publicly
racist...because the president is.
His supporters, what does it say about you?
A terrifying night of violence as Trump supporters were attacked by an angry mob waiting for
them outside a Trump rally.
You
also might want to do some self examination.
Trump supporter got knocked around when a fight broke out.
you continue to make excuses where this man for his vile behavior. Doesn't that make you
just as bad, if not worse?
This is tough stuff. We're fighting a war.
(chanting) No Trump, no wall, no USA at all!
We are five days away form fundamentally transforming the United States of America.
Barack Obama had tried to fundamentally transform our country and I didn't understand yet how
far our country had gone, how much Obama had given away our nation. Taking a look at the
labor force participation rate, it's the lowest it's been in decades and has been on a steady
decline during the Obama presidency. Where the country was before Trump got into this
race was - it was a dismal economy. We're still living on the Obama economy and we're
in the worst shape we've been at the entire post World War II period. Unemployment was
high, people were downtrodden, people were disappointed, and we became the laughing stock
of the foreign policy world because we had an American president who is an apologist
for leading the greatest country in the world, and what we saw was this president, go overseas
and started bowing to foreign leaders and being apologetic for having the greatest superpower
the world has ever seen. What we needed was not a litigator. We needed a fighter. We needed
someone that understood this is a cultural war - that the left wants to undo our country.
They want to take down America.
(chanting) No Trump, no wall, no USA at all!
Trump said 'not on my watch.' Now is the time to fight and Donald trump is the man to do
it.
We don't have victories anymore. We used to have victories, but we don't have them. When
was the last time anybody saw US beating China. When did we beat Japan at anything? When do
we beat Mexico at the border? They're laughing at us. At our stupidity. The US has become
a dumping ground for everybody else's problems. The world right now is going (boom). Whites
are black. Trump's running for president, does gravity still work?
You're not going to be president, alright? Folks. Donald trump is not a serious person.
He might be leading the Republican ticket. (laughing) I know you don't believe that,
but I don't want to go on. Let's not mince words. Donald trump is a bigot and a racist.
I'm sorry. He's a racist. He's a belligerent, loud mouth racist. There is zero chance we'll
be seeing you being sworn in on the capitol steps with your hand on a giant golden Bible.
The very first thing I noticed about Donald Trump was when he came down the escalator
and he said, I'm rich.
I'm really rich. I'll show you that. By the way, I'm not even saying that in a bragging
way. That's the kind of mindset, that's the kind of thinking you need for this country.
I'm very, very, very, very, very rich and I want to show you how to get rich with me.
I am officially running for president of the United States
and we are going to make our country great again
So this began as 500 people in a ballroom in Phoenix.
And the hotel called us up and they said, please don't do it here. We're going to be
swamped. It's going to destroy the building.
We will make America great again.
It's been amazing and outside, sadly, we have thousands of people that can't get in,
we're going to do it. I love you all. Thank you very much everybody. Thank you. I love
you. Thank you. We're going to do it.
I think in the primaries, the candidates that were fielded by the Republican Party, it was
the best group of candidates that I've ever seen run for the Republican nomination and
it's one that Trump was able to dispense with very quickly and I think very easily and that's
because he connected to voters in a way that they didn't.
I was told by everybody, do not go to Iowa. You could never finish even in the top 10.
And I said, but I have friends in Iowa. I know a lot of people in Iowa. I think they'll
really like me. Let's give it a shot. They said, don't do it. I said, I have to do it,
and we finished second and I want to tell you something.
I'm just honored. I'm really honored
And there's a reason his support collapsed in the final days. You look at all the entrance
polls people decided in the last week, last two days, the last day they went to Rubio
and Cruz.
Donald trump is a here today, gone tomorrow. Candidate for president
Fox news can now project that Donald Trump win the republican presidential primary,
Because as entertaining as Donald Trump is, Donald Trump is a liar.
Ann, which Republican candidate has the best chance of winning the general election? Of
the declared ones, right now, Donald Trump.
Donald Trump, the billionaire, the real estate magnate, will win the South Carolina Republican
primary.
There's not going to be a president Donald trump. CBS News is projecting that Donald
trump is the winner in the state of Florida.
So here you have two sides within the same party battling over who's going to be right
when this is all over.
Your words were 'among Hispanics, generally, trump pulls only slightly better than a**
cancer.' Well, I mean at least it's slightly better, right?
Trump claimed big wins in the south - a 22 point margin in Alabama, 14 point victories
in Tennessee and Georgia, with tighter wins in Arkansas and Virginia.
The RNC has booted national review from cosponsoring a Republican debate next month. This after
the Conservative magazine assembled a group of prominent pundits with a single goal - stopping
trump.
Donald Trump will never be elected president of the United States
He is not a typical politician.
Fans were flooding Trump events, turning out in record numbers.
People there were groupies. They would go to 7, 10, 15, 30 rallies. They travel around
the country to see him. They would wait in line for 8, 9, 10 hours in the rain and in
the snow. This evening, his last opponent dropped out. Trump is the republican party's
presumptive nominee for president. Donald trump is in fact the party's presumptive nominee.
And I could not be more proud tonight to present to you and to all of America, my father, and
our next president, Donald J. Trump.
Our convention occurs at a moment of crisis for our nation. The attacks on our police
and the terrorism of our cities threaten our very way of life. Any politician who does
not grasp this danger is not fit to lead our country. The crime and violence that today
afflicts our nation will soon, and I mean very soon, come to an end. Beginning on January
20th of 2017, safety will be restored.
What about our economy? Again, I will tell you the plain facts that have been edited
out of your nightly news and your morning newspaper. Nearly four in ten African American
children are living in poverty. While 58 percent of African American youth are now not employed,
2 million more Latinos are in poverty today than when President Obama took his oath of
office less than eight years ago. Another 14 million people have left the workforce
entirely. The most important difference between our plan and that of our opponents is that
our plan will put America first. Americanism not globalism will be our credo. The American
people will come first once again. Big business, elite media, and major donors are lining up
behind the campaign of my opponent because they know she will keep our rigged system
in place. My message is that things have to change and they have to change right now.
Every day I wake up determined to deliver a better life for people all across this nation
that had been ignored, neglected and abandoned. I have visited the laid off factory workers
and the communities crushed by our horrible and unfair trade deals. These are the forgotten
men and women of our country and they are forgotten, but then not going to be forgotten
long. These are people who work hard but no longer have a voice. I am your voice.
Unlike the massive crowd at the Trump rally, only 600 people showed up for Hillary Clinton's
rally last night in Iowa.
I knew things were changing because I would see the rallies in Ohio and Michigan and Pennsylvania
- which is supposed to be a blue wall.
I thought Donald Trump was one of the first politicians in a while who looked at voters
and saw them as
real people in concrete situations. People with real everyday problems and who saw them
as his fellow Americans, he kind of looked at them as part of a national family. That's
Donald Trump reminding the people of where it used to be a better country, where we had
manufacturing, where guys who worked in steel mills and coal plants were heroes of our country,
and now under the Obama years, those jobs would decimate it and he promised to bring
those manufacturing jobs back because middle America had been left behind
Today, on a very complicated and very difficult subject, you will get the truth.
The fundamental problem with the immigration system in our country is that it serves the
needs of wealthy donors, political activists, and powerful, powerful politicians. Let me
tell you who it does not serve. It does not serve you- the American people. It doesn't
serve you.
Illegal immigration costs our country more than $113 billion a year. Most illegal immigrants
are lower skilled workers with less education who compete directly against vulnerable American
workers. Only the out of touch media elites think the biggest problem facing American
society today is that there are 11 million illegal immigrants who don't have legal status.
To all the politicians, donors, and special interests - hear these words from me and all
of you today. There is only one core issue in the immigration debate, and that issue
is the well being of the American people.
We'll build it. We'll build who's going to pay for it?
You could put half of Trump's supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables, right?
The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic. You name it.
When Hillary Clinton called our voters and our supporters deplorable, I think it helped
change the dynamics of the entire race.
So what does she get out of criticizing a quarter of the country, presumably some of
whom she'd love to have vote for her?
We have the support of cops and soldiers, carpenters and welders, the young and the
old, and millions of working class families who just want a better future and a good job.
These were the people Hillary Clinton so viciously demonized. These were among the countless
Americans that Hillary Clinton called deplorable.
What Hillary Clinton has done here, she's created a community.
Our next guests are trump supporters who are embracing the deplorable label.
We wanted to show everybody that we're not deplorable, we're normal middle class women.
We don't win. We lose. We are going to start winning again. We're going to win with everything.
We're going to win so much. You are going to get so sick and tired of winning. I say
this kiddingly, but I love saying it. You are going to get so tired of winning. You're
going to say, please, please Mr. President, we can't take it anymore. The people of New
Mexico cannot take it. You're winning too much. We can't stand it. Please don't win
so much and I'm going to say I'm sorry. We're going to keep winning. We are
going to make America great again.
New polls just out tonight. Nationally, Hillary Clinton, after the first debate, now at 47
to Donald Trump's 42
Clinton is polling now at 49 percent. Donald Trump at 44 percent.
There comes a moment in every great endeavor when success or failure is determined by the
decisions you make under duress at a seminal moment. Donald Trump's moment came in October.
Billy Bush weekend was probably the most difficult weekend of the campaign. What was taking place
at Trump tower was the staff there was attempting to manage the president and come up with a
solution. Some people told the president to get out of the race and he was going to go
down and have the biggest defeat in our history, but what I knew about Donald trump was you
never backed down. You doubled down.
That 2005 access Hollywood tape wasn't just lewd remarks. Trump was literally explaining
a time tested strategy for sexual assault.
The swing voters have been these college educated white women who went from Mitt Romney by six
points, and in our last poll went for Hillary Clinton by 25 points. They last night, saw
nothing to bring them to Donald.
Can I just cut through? I have one thing to say, one thing only, and that is that this
race is over.
Basically, this was just gonna be a coronation now for Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump had
no shot.
An estimated 20,000 people turned out last night at a football stadium in mobile, Alabama.
New NBC News survey poll is out today. It puts Hillary Clinton up by 10 points over
Donald Trump. \
The first exit polls come out and the margin is so bad that there's basically not enough
votes left to go and make it up. We're going to lose everything and in CNN you can feel
the jubilation that the reporters are having.
You know what we haven't had in a presidential election in a long time - a real landslide,
and I don't want to oversell this here, but at least right now, in this moment, we're
seeing an interesting possibility in this presidential race.
It was funny because when I saw Florida come in and they refused to call it for Donald
Trump, I knew at that moment that CNN didn't want to call it because it would be the end
of it all. The result of the election hasn't been officially declared yet, so I knew what
that moment that the president had won. I did not think the swamp could be beaten. I
did not think that the Hillary Clinton machine could be beaten. I did not think that Donald
Trump would beat them.
The biggest surprise of the night, but if I had to say secondary to that, it would definitely
be in the response of all the pundits and the pollsters as they saw their whole brand
just melt around them when they were proven 100 percent false on everything that they
have been saying for the last six months.
And all of a sudden at like 10, 10:30 at night, I know Trump's going to be the president elected
of the United States and I've got to go back on CNN and it was an amazing feeling. You've
won, so act like you've won.
I think. I think Donald Trump is going to go on tonight. I think he's waiting for Hillary
Clinton to call him and concede this race and then he's going to make a very gracious
speech which says, I want to be the president of the entire United States I want to bring
everyone together. I don't think it's outrageous. No candidate in modern American politics has
ever run a wire to wire, first place campaign. We went in first place and we never looked
back.
We are going to make this decision now, the Fox News decision desk has called Pennsylvania
for Donald Trump. This means that Donald Trump will be the 45th president of the United States.
There are demonstrations in major American cities across the country tonight over the
election of Donald Trump. Tens of thousands marched in the streets across the United States
on Saturday. Protests held in big cities such as Los Angeles, New York, and Chicago. But
in Portland, Saturday night it turned violent.
People filling the streets in America's cities protesting president elect Donald Trump. Crowd
set fires, blocked freeways, and gathered at Trump's buildings all across the country.
You're awake by the way. You're not having a terrible, terrible dream. Also, you're not
dead and you haven't gone to hell. This is your life now. This is our election now. This
is us. This is our country. It's real.
Washington Post is now reporting that a secret CIA report concluded that Russia intervened
in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win the presidency. The most important thing
to understand about what happened in 2016 is that it wasn't about a man, but it was
about a message and a platform. Both left and right had betrayed the nation. The GOP
didn't understand that Donald Trump won despite the republican party, not because of the Republican
Party.
When he took this country over in January 20th, 2017, we were in real trouble and we
still are.
I attended the inauguration with my wife who was going to become a citizen just a month
later. She had never heard a politician speak like this and she mentioned that this is going
to be a presidency like we'd never seen before. And when you listen to that inauguration speech,
you understood, that he was getting ready for battle.
We will reinforce old alliances and form new ones and unite the civilized world against
radical Islamic terrorism, which we will eradicate completely from the face of the earth.
And after that speech, we got a preview of exactly what the media was going to do in
terms of coverage of Donald Trump and calling it dark and evoking nazi-ism and saying all
the most horrible things that you can say about an inauguration speech.
When he said today, America first, it was not just the racial, I mean the Hitlarian,
the background to it.
This American carnage stops right here and stops right now.
The media can't resist it. Why could they not resist comparing folks to Nazi Germany
or Hitler?
From this day forward, it's going to be only America first. America first.
We want to hear that message of America first, however it carries with it overtones from
the 1930's of an anit-semitic movement saying, we don't want to get involved in Europe's
war. It's the Jews' fault in Germany. The words themselves carry very ugly echos in
our history.
Finally, we must think big and dream even bigger. In America, we understand that a nation
is only living as long as it is striving. We will no longer accept politicians who are
all talk and no action. Constantly complaining, but never doing anything about it. The time
for empty talk is over. Now, arrives the hour of action.
President Trump signing executive orders in his first few days in office.
Just moments ago in the Oval Office, as he did signed two executive orders. One, to officially
ease the burden on Obamacare. American worker hiring freeze except the military, what does
that mean, Mark?
Alright, it's about, you know, saying that there should be no more civil servants in
the federal government, that they're not going to grow the size of the government with federal
workers.
What do you make of the signing of these executive orders and the president withdrawing the United
States from TPP? Well, he's making good on a lot of campaign promises. What he's trying
to do here is followed through on a promise to take action on day one. We're gonna move
on now to the chaos, confusion and anger growing in the wake of president Trump's immigration
ban.
Overnight outrage from coast to coast. This is not about religion. This is about terror
and keeping our country safe. There are over 40 different countries worldwide that are
majority Muslim that are not affected by this order.
What we did was focused on - instead of religion - danger, the areas of the world that create
danger for us.
Besides the opposition media, now that Donald Trump holds the most powerful seat in the
world, he is faced with opposition from all sides. The Democrats, 'never-trumpers' inside
his own party, and the so called deep state. You know, people call the deep state or the
administrative state or entrenched political class. These are the people who are making
millions off the political system in the United States. Washington is a swamp and it's filled
with people, Republicans and Democrats, who don't have the country's best interest in
mind, and these are the people who oppose Donald Trump because he has his own people
working against them. They're not part of the solution. They're part of the cabal, they're
part of the swamp and they're part of the problem.
Trump needed the time to learn how the swamp works. All of us want the swamp drained, but
you cannot drain the swamp without actually knowing how it works first, and that's the
same thing with progressivism. You can't pull it out by it's root if you don't understand
how it got there in the first place.
The Democrats are suffering from a massive identity crisis and haven't been able to get
their hands around the fact that they lost to Donald Trump, which has created a political
vacuum in this country that
the mainstream media has jumped in to fill and they just can't get over the fact that
they lost. So right after the election's over with, we start getting all these stories about
Russian collusion.
We can't really see anything of collusion. We are at a point where many people in the
American public see this investigation, uh, for what it is, a way to take down a president.
And if it isn't collusion, they'll pivot to something else that has nothing to do with
collusion, and the blind partisans, and particularly people in the media will just run with that
narrative.
The have phony witch hunts going against me. They have 'everything' and you know what,
all we do is win, win, win.
I don't think the people of the United States wanted an investigation. I think this was
an investigation brought on by a conspiracy of people within the entrenched political
class in Washington to get rid of Donald Trump. Now that I've been through my own sit down,
it becomes very obvious to me that this isn't about Russia collusion. It's about getting
Donald Trump. Despite the media's desire to hype the Russian collusion narrative, Donald
Trump has kept his focus and has managed to secure a number of important victories in
less than two years.
If you look at what this president has been able to achieve in the first year, historic
tax cut, the repatriation of money sitting overseas, African American unemployment, Hispanic
unemployment - record lows because of what this president's policies are. He stayed laser
focused on the things he said he would do, on the tough calls on the Paris climate accord,
on the Iran deal, on moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, on staring down the
trade agreements that have been terrible for our country, on crushing Isis. People didn't
understand the importance of small business in this country for 30 some odd years. Nobody
had really addressed the needs of these small business owners. Here we had an opportunity
to make that change for these small business owners needed that help to be able to actually
make a change for their own businesses as well.
Since the election, we have created 2.4 million new jobs. It's something I'm very proud of.
African American unemployment stands at the lowest rate ever recorded.
Unemployment for Hispanics hit an all time record low and June and new polls showing
that Trump's approval rating among Hispanics rising rapidly.
Not only because of the tax cuts, but because the deregulation that he has forced through
the stroke of his pen, he has removed the government boot off of small businesses' neck.
We've seen big companies and small companies alike who are saying because of the policies
of this administration, the first year and a half, we're growing our business. Our economy
is moving in the right direction. That alone would be enough for any other president to
secure a reelection right now. You couple that with the success that he's had in getting
a Supreme Court justice on the court, more federal bench justices than any president
in his tenure at this point ever in history. You look at the conservative Heritage Foundation,
they say in his first year, uh, Donald Trump has done about 64 percent of our mandate for
leadership. So we were quite encouraged and for anyone who doubts whether or not we have
a conservative president, we in fact do.
I've been astonished to watch what it looks like when you see the speed of business versus
the speed of government, the speed of action versus the speed of promises. Donald Trump
is a businessman who has unleashed the climate of business in this country. He has said,
I believe you know how to spend your
money better than the government does. I want to cut your taxes so you can invest in your
own life. You can invest in your employees, you can invest in your business. I'm going
to reduce regulations. So that small business that doesn't have an army of accountants and
lawyers and litigators and lobbyists, they're on a level playing field with those big guys.
They play very well and cozy inside the rigged system, but Donald Trump understands he wants
equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome. We can unleash the engines of capitalism.
He has unleashed the miracle of free market economics because as a businessman, he understands
that that's how you unleash the promise of America.
Today I want to talk about how to grow the African-American middle class and to provide
a new deal for black America.
We are now seeing unemployment rates that are below four percent and in fact, if you
even look more specifically at unemployment rates amongst Latinos and amongst blacks,
it is now at historic record levels in terms of lows. This is unbelievable. This administration,
frankly has done more for the Hispanic community, for the black community than probably most
other administrations have in the past.
Well, at the beginning of the Obama years, especially within the black community, we
were all excited that America had proven that it was able to get past this racist background.
And we were excited about being able to elect the first black president. We thought for
sure he would do things specifically to help the intrinsic and intransigent problems within
the black community. The high unemployment rate, the black on black crime.
Shooting violence has gotten so bad in Chicago that gun fights are breaking out now at existing
crime scenes and even with police in close proximity.
You got shots fired over here.
And then as he got settled into office, the cloud of disappointment began to settle in
within the black community, members of the black caucus could not get a meeting with
the first black president. He never addressed the black unemployment rate, and that's when
the bottom fell out of our support for President Obama.
And one of the things that unfortunately with the Obama administration, truly people believe
that the American dream was dead.
What the black community is looking for is a reason to change their habits. And I think
that's part of the reason that President Donald Trump came onto the scene.
Entrepreneurship. That's the bedrock. That's the gateway drug into the black community
- it's through our entrepreneurs. And if we make sure we have a vibrant entrepreneurship
class within the black community, that's going to go a long ways to solve a lot of the turmoil
you see in the inner city, number one. Then number two, education. Because if you have
a good education and you're optimistic and hopeful, now you go to school, get education
where this college or vocational. Then you have a a flourishing entrepreneurship class
that has a job waiting for you. They need you because their businesses are growing so
fast.
But now what we're hearing again, that optimism is sky high. People are investing back into
their businesses because they believe that the American dream now is now achievable once
again.
That deal is grounded in three promises: safe communities, great education and high paying
jobs,
And the moment you reach out to them and you start taking them seriously as business men,
you're going to actual conservatism come into the picture. Actual ideas come into the picture.
I will also propose tax holidays for inter city investment, a new tax incentive to get
foreign companies to relocate in blighted American neighborhoods, and they will do that.
It will be worthwhile. It's called incentive. They will do it.
Uprooting progressivism and getting it out of our country so we're not on the brink of
democratic socialism.
I will produce and I will get others to produce and we know for a fact it doesn't work with
the Democrats.
There is a lot at stake at this moment right now, and if Donald Trump chooses capitalism
and chooses that fight, at this moment, I think you change the entire trajectory of
this country for what progressives have done the last hundred years.
They want to kill not only our civilians all over the world. And it is going to be stopped.
It's going to be stopped. Somebody criticized me the other day because they asked me what
I'd do and I said, I'm going to bomb the shit out of them.
I don't care. I don't care. They've got to be stopped.
The most underreporting story of 2017 was the decimation of the caliphate that is Isis
in Syria and Iraq. 98 percent of that caliphate has now been destroyed. President Trump as
a candidate said that we'll bomb the hell out of them, and he got ridiculed for that.
Well, where are we now? We see a caliphate that's decimated. Yet most people wouldn't
even know that 98 percent of that caliphate is destroyed because simply it's not being
reported.
There have been hundreds of modern jihadi organizations that wished to bring back the
caliphate that was dissolved after WWI, but every single one of them failed. All of them
failed until a group called Isis, reestablished the caliphate.
President Obama, warns that the fight against Islamic state will take time. The president
went to the Pentagon for a briefing with the country's top military commanders. He called
the fight against Islamic state a generational struggle.
This will not be quick, it's a long-term campaign. ISIL is opportunistic and it is nimble. Many
places in Syria and Iraq, including urban areas, it's dug in among innocent civilian
populations. It will take time to root them out.
Meaning your children, my grandchildren, would have to fight these jihadis decades from now.
Donald J Trump and his administration with a focus on the physical caliphate, compressed
Obama's generational war into the span of four months until the caliphate was no more.
We've made tremendous strides obviously in Syria with Isis. We've taken back virtually
all of the
caliphate, all of the land. Same thing in Iraq, and we're making tremendous strides
- it's sort of the unwritten story right now. President Trump phrasing the news and Isis
has lost 98 percent of the territory it once held, with half of those victories coming
since he took office. Just last year, Isis controlled area in Iraq and Syria, the size
of Ohio. Look at that on the map. Take a good look at it and now we're going to show you
what exists today. This is the remaining strongholds that are there. A small area along the border,
so big accomplishment. I'll never forget seeing the black flag of ISIS fly over Fallujah,
Ramadi, Samora, other towns that Americans had fought to liberate, and when we saw that,
the images were jarring, but the response was infantile. Barack Obama called them the
JV team.
In January, President Obama told the New Yorker magazines' David Remnick, that Isis, which
was then still considered a part of al Qaeda fighting in Syria, was like a JV basketball
team.
We're not here to play games. We're not here to build schools. We're not here to hand out
soccer balls. We're here to put a rifle round between the eyes of Isis, to drop a MOAB on
their face and make sure they never come back to this earth, and here we are now and the
Isis Caliphate has been destroyed. That's the kind of leadership I want - is the commander
in chief laser focused on destroying the enemy? Where are the front page headlines? Where
are the deep dive stories about the lives that were saved? Where's the talk of the courage
of Iraqis? Of Kurds, of Syrians, of Americans putting their life on the line so that ISIS
dirt bags can be put into the dirt. Of course, those stories aren't told because those stories
would would amplify the success of a commander in chief that this media hates.
The Iranian regime is the leading state sponsor of terror. It exports dangerous missiles,
fuels conflicts across the Middle East, and supports terrorist proxies and militias such
as Hezbollah, Hamas, the Taliban, and Al Qaeda. Therefore, I am announcing today that the
United States will withdraw from the Iran nuclear deal.
The Iran deal is another example of the president making a promise. He said that this is the
worst deal in history, that we're going to get out. Barack Obama was was more than foolish.
He was reckless, ideologically reckless in America's security and pursuing that deal.
They were foolish enough to think that if we gave the Iranians billions of dollars of
pallets of cash, the ayatollah is over there. The radical Islamists would give up their
nuclear weapons, stopped their ambitions to chant death to America and wipe Israel off
the map. Except everything we've seen since we signed that horrific deal is they've only
funded their military operations more. You've only exported more Islamic terrorism in the
region. They've only sought to expand their influence, undermine America, and undermine
Israel in the process, and thank God we have a president who stepped up and said, that's
not a deal worth making, let alone a deal worth keeping.
America will not be held hostage to nuclear blackmail. We will not allow American cities
to be threatened with destruction and we will not allow a regime that chants death to America
to gain access to the most deadly weapons on earth. Today's action sends a critical
message. The United States no longer makes empty threats. When I make promises, I keep
them.
The new provocation from North Korea - what could be the most dangerous yet. A new missile
launch being called a breakthrough, a successful test of an intercontinental ballistic missile,
possibly capable of reaching Alaska. North Korea's official statements celebrating the
launch, promising to root out what they see as the US threat.
If you remember, August of 2017, we were on the verge of world war three. North Korea
was lobbing missiles over Japan, was threatening Guam, had nuclear capabilities, and the president
said that Kim Jong Un and the North Korean people will be met with the fire and fury
like the world has never seen. The United States has great strength and patience, but
if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy
North Korea. The media was apocalyptic, said you can't speak to North Korean leaders like
that. You can't use that sort of language. You're going to get us into a war and instead
it was a language, it turns out, that Kim Jong Un actually understood. And he began
to acquiesce and he began to stop testing missiles.
North Korea will not find security and respect through threats and illegal weapons. We will
work with our friends and allies to stand up to this behavior and we will redouble our
efforts toward a more robust international nonproliferation regime that all countries
have responsibilities.
They accelerated toward a nuclear bomb under the Obama administration because they saw
it as their opportunity. Ironically, that's the number one issue Barack Obama said he
was handing to Donald Trump to solve on the world stage and what has president Trump done?
He's forged a path to solve it, but he didn't play by the consensus games of Washington
DC. Never once did intelligentsia crowd say, you know what you should do - you should tell
Kim Jong Un fire and fury is coming his way. You should tell Kim Jong Un, he's going to
get a bloody nose if he tries it again. You should ramp up troop deployments, ramp up
military exercises, maximize the pressure, utilize China to put pressure on North Korea,
and here we are. We're getting actual action on the Korean Peninsula.
And now we have all sides talking and people are talking about Donald Trump, of all people,
winning a Nobel Peace Prize. Republican congressmen, Luke Messer launching an effort to nominate
president Trump for a Nobel peace prize. That could end up being his legacy, that could
end up being his biggest accomplishment as president if he is actually able to denuclearize
the Korean peninsula.
In the Kate Steinle murder case, the illegal immigrant Garcia Zarate, who killed Kate Steinle
on that pier in San Francisco, was acquitted just a short time ago, of murder and manslaughter
charges.
When Donald Trump took that escalator down in Trump tower, as soon as he honed in on
immigration, I knew that he was speaking to an America that had been told that they weren't
allowed to talk about these issues, that they were verboten, that they had to be censored
in public discourse for the sake of social cohesion. Donald trump was having none of
it. Donald trump stood on that stage and said some of the most extraordinary and true and
revelatory things about mass migration.
But I speak to border guards and they tell us what we're getting and it only makes common
sense. It only makes common sense. They're sending us not the right people. It's coming
from more than Mexico. It's coming from all over south and Latin America and it's coming
probably, probably, from the Middle East.
Let me tell you something the mainstream media will never tell you tonight. It was San Francisco's
sanctuary city policies that killed Kate Steinle. Our campaign was outlined immigration, and
that means stopping illegal immigrants from coming into the country. The notion of a wall
on the southern border, which had been proposed years before that the senate had voted on,
including Hillary.
it will secure our borders with technology, personnel, physical barriers, if necessary,
was now a controversial idea, is absurd. When we went out to the American people and the
president
started talking about bringing our jobs back under the Obama years, those jobs were decimated
and he promised to bring those manufacturing jobs back because middle America had been
left behind.
We will bring our jobs back, Sean. We're going to bring our jobs, as sure as you're sitting
there, we're going to bring our jobs back into this country.
If we don't have a wall, we don't have a country, and if you don't have a border, you will have
a perpetual problem exploited by the worst of the worst. By MS 13, by drug runners, by
sex traffickers, by violent gangs. All of these groups who have created problems across
our country that then left wing politicians give sanctuary to.
Reaffirming its reputation as the sanctuary city of all sanctuary cities, San Francisco
is doubling down on its defiance of federal immigration law.
To me, the border wall is as close to an immigration litmus test as there exists, find me a politician
and ask them what they think about the border wall and if they say, 'well, maybe we need
it, maybe we don't,' they still don't get the idea of immigration today. They still
don't get the idea of a nation state. They still don't understand how central it is to
the future of our country. People who really don't believe America should have borders,
people who see immigration as simply a factor of production, who see immigrants as future
social security tax payers and nothing else. People who don't send their kids to public
schools where 14 or 17 languages have to be taught and the Latin kings are battling it
out with MS 13 over the turf and driving out African Americans whose ancestors had been
there for 100 years. America has never been a race, a gender, a social class. It is a
set of ideas that we have perpetuated, but it starts with the rule of law. Without the
rule of law, everything else falls apart. Without the rule of law starting on our border,
we don't have a country.
When I talk with a lot of my friends in the congressional black caucus privately, I chastise
them. How can you be black and you're supporting amnesty for those in the country illegally.
When then at the same time you complain about the high unemployment rate in the black community.
So your solution is to bring in cheap labor? Really? The black folks I talk to do not support
amnesty for illegals. Even most of the black liberal democratic staffers I know and talk
to, privately, they don't agree with it, but they are terrified to go public and say they
disagree with it. Why pay an American engineer $150,000 a year when you could import them
and pay them $80,000 a year? We need to get back to putting Americans first and not worry
about trying to be president of the world, which we had eight years of that. Now we have
a president that's singularly focused on if it's good for America, then it's good for
the world. That's a total paradigm shift. What president Trump is doing with this issue
of illegal immigration is resonating the black community. What we have to do is do a better
job of giving these people a microphone to talk about how they feel about that issue.
I don't believe there's a bigger geopolitical issue that threatens American security directly
than the rise of China.
America is the most powerful nation the world has ever seen on every metric. Nevertheless,
there is one nation that has both the desire and the potential to displace us. They see
their culture is better than anybody else's, and they see the last hundred years as an
anomaly, as a humiliation by the west. What we have today is a modern day economic super
power. The Chinese today are becoming more Communist. They're becoming more oppressive
at home. They're becoming more expansionist
internationally. China's goal is to diminish the United States at all costs because China's
rise and ultimately China's world domination is to make sure that the United States is
defeated and they're doing everything in their power by using information means, as well
as supporting America's enemies, stealing America's technology. The amounts that have
been stolen by the Chinese have just been extraordinary in the trillions of dollars
of valuable US technology, and they're using that technology to build up their military
as well as their diplomatic, economic, and intelligence infrastructures.
Once you work in the White House, once you have access to the intelligence of the most
powerful intelligence community in the world can provide, you tend to see things differently.
I came to realize that the only truly strategic long term threat that America faces is in
fact from China. China has a plan to displace us by the hundredth anniversary of the Chinese
Communist Revolution in 2049.
2049 is the 100th anniversary of the People's Republic of China. In 2021, they want territory
integrity, which means they want Taiwan, they want the south China Sea. And then in 2049
they want to overtake the United States.
The flash points between the United States and China are clearly in the Pacific. The
South China Sea, which sees 5 trillion in trade annually, has been militarized and literally
taken over by the Chinese in a covert operation to build small islands throughout the sea
and begin militarizing them with missiles. Any of these three flash points could erupt
into a regional conflict unless the United States takes major action to push back against
this Chinese hegemonism.
Mr. Xi, ,for years, he was a very cautious guy. He understood how to climb up in China.
To climb up the communist ladder, you first have to be harmless. People are not afraid
of you. You're not in anybody's way, but when he got to power, now he's showing his true
colors. We see him using Mau's language, we see him raise issues like what Mau raised.
Xi Jinping comes from a veteran family. Both his parents are communists, high ranking leaders.
He grew up in that environment, so when he came to power, he had a mission to defend,
to restore, revive the communist party, to make it become stronger, to glorify the communist
party. China is definitely a totalitarian regime because it controls everything. China
is control. Everybody's thinking, everybody's social behavior and everybody's speech. And
not a single regime in history can have such a total control over its people. The totalitarian
machine, the whole country is a police state.
They have developed a strategy, the one belt, one road strategy, and they've developed a
doctrine called unrestricted warfare to undermine us in indirect ways, specifically economic
warfare and political warfare and the development of military technologies that leap frog over
conventional military technology development.
It's actually a stalking horse for the Chinese ideology of Chinese communism, socialism with
Chinese characteristics. They're building up countries around the world. And with that
comes the Chinese economic model as well as the Chinese authoritarian and communist system
and the United States again, is at a loss to try and counter this. China basically has
no oil and therefore they're heavily dependent on Middle Eastern oil. So they're looking
for ways to control the oil coming out of the Persian Gulf in the Middle East and make
sure that they can secure that.
I think president Trump perhaps is one of the smartest presidents we have had and his
engagement with China - I think as a businessman first, he understands personal relationship.
He made president Xi say
one thing: that the United States of America have a thousand reasons to be friendly to
each other, and have zero reasons not to be friendly. Actually, we have plenty of reasons
to be friendly. But president Trump establish a personal relationship. In Chinese politics,
if you have a personal relationship, you can always, you know, have some leeway. On the
other hand, if you don't stand firm for your national interests, they despise you. So actually,
president Trump won a lot of respect from the Chinese leaders and Chinese people.
We've lost 70,000 factories since China joined the World Trade Organization, and you've seen
that, you've heard about it. 70,000, the World Trade Organization, another one of our disasters,
but this election, the American people voted to end the theft of American prosperity. They
voted to bring back their jobs and to bring back their dreams into our country. That's
why I'm here today. In just a few moments, I will be signing a buy American and hire
American executive order. You haven't heard about that a long time in this country. With
this action, we are sending a powerful signal to the world. We're going to defend our workers,
protect our jobs, and finally put America first.
Donald Trump was one of the first politicians to recognize the threat from China. He broke
with the business community and that he wasn't going to go along with business as usual by
ignoring China's aggression in the south China Sea and other areas, ignoring China's human
rights abuses. Donald Trump has made a sea change in the US approach to China. He's made
China the top threat along with Russia. He has made protecting American economic security
one of the highest priorities. Again, this trade and interaction in the past was based
on the false notion that trading with China would have a moderating influence on its behavior
and president Trump was the first to recognize that this has totally failed and that a much
tougher approach is needed.
We're going to be fulfilling another campaign promise by taking firm steps to ensure that
we protect the intellectual property of American companies and very importantly of American
workers.
No, mark my words. If the 21st century is not an American century, the 21st century
will not be a free century, and I'll tell you this, the Chinese, the Communists, believe
the future is there's. That their economy and it's central planning is the future that
their military will eventually overtake America's and they they do not believe that our will
is strong enough to confront them. They believe America is a declining power that free peoples
and capitalism inevitably implodes and that central planning and dictatorship and communism
is the way of the people. If we do not stare down China, not just on trade, but on their
military ambitions, the 21st century could be a Chinese century, and that means it sure
is not a free one.
The deplorables know that they've been doing the heavy lifting for a long time. They're
the guys from the small towns across America whose parents have the nine to five jobs make
just enough to get them off to college, but infuse in them the values that matter the
most. Love your country. Be willing to fight for things greater than yourself. Earn a paycheck
because there's dignity in work, and you know, raise a family that perpetuates that into
the next generation, that loves America. So the deplorables said, the way I give to my
country is to give the way the previous generation did.
You know in November we have so much actually at stake, so much to lose. The Democrats,
they actually are saying vote for us and we will raise your taxes.
What can you do? But raise taxes.
You're used to hearing the Democrats say, vote for us. We'll give you free stuff here
and free stuff there. Our small business owners right now, their optimism is sky high because
they believe that these are the tax cuts that they're going to be facing in the future,
but I'll tell you now that we're hearing a little bit of concern now because they're
asking the question, what happens if they go away?
You raise the issue of taxes Trump raised. Let's talk about it.
What's too high for the top personal rate? It's not about a number. That's what negotiations
are all about.
Yes, we will come up with that rate. But it'll be a damn lot higher than it is right now.
This is Armageddon.
Is 50 percent, obviously, too high?
Look, there was a time in a very prosperous America where the top marginal rate was well
above 50 percent.
Previously, you'd been asked if a 92 percent marginal rate is certainly too high and you
said no. So. how high are you willing to go?
Not One Democrat voted to cut taxes, not one.
And just as I promised the American people from this podium 11 months ago, we enacted
the biggest tax cuts and reforms in American history.
The November 2018 elections are absolutely critical to see this president's agenda continue
to move forward. This election, if it is an election about the success that our country
is facing, Donald Trump wins and the Republicans keep and expand their majorities both in the
Senate, and in the house. If this is a localized election where the Democratic candidates are
running away from Nancy Pelosi and the leadership of the Democratic Party then the Democrats
are going to do very well. We have come up with a lot of solutions, but we have democrats
that don't want to approve anything because that's probably, they think, bad for the election
that's coming up. What Democrats are very good at doing is they go into their districts,
they campaign and say one thing. They come to Washington DC and they do the exact opposite.
That's what is on trial. That is what we are talking about. The November election.
Donald trump is definitely on the ballot in every race across the country. You're either
with an agenda, a reform agenda of Washington that is with the people to make government
smaller and more effective and to return more money into the pockets of the American taxpayer
or you're with those in the beltway that want to grow government, grow the size of its regulation,
and to keep imposing itself on our lives.
Tell me what the Democrats are running on. What's their platform relative to the black
community? Just think about the impact of voting Democrat and having several prominent
black liberals, sharing major committee. If you don't think elections matter, all I say
is when you wake up this morning, think of chairman Maxine Waters sharing the financial
services committee. That should scare you to vote Republican right there.
I don't think there's been a midterm election this important, in my lifetime, because the
Democrats want to take us back to taxes, into the regulatory states and in largely the politicization
of everything. One of the reasons the economy is doing well now is because the president
is getting the boot of government off the necks of business people and farmers and people
that make things, grow things and build things.
And the government released its gross domestic product report for the second quarter this
morning. It showed the US economy grew 4.1 percent from April through June. That's the
best showing since 2014.
The democratic policy of America have wasted the first year and a half of the Trump presidency
attacking him on nonsensical issues because they think firstly they control the media.
They think secondly, they control the culture and so their ideas will pervade. Their ideas
will filter down necessarily no matter what. They don't rule the roost. They have no answers,
so they resorted to racism, xenophobia, and all these other things.
The Democrats have nothing to run on in November. What platform do they have? Are they going
to vote on: Let's bring ISIS back? Let's get rid of the $5 million job bonuses that have
been created by the tax reform? Shall we not build the wall? They can't run on this. The
2016 election was a peaceful political revolution and it was historic.
I have a whole list of accomplishments that the group behind me have done in terms of
this administration and this Congress, but you've heard it before. We are making America
great again.
But 2018 is even more important than the election of the president. The whole make America great
again agenda relies upon seven more years of this administration being able to bring
us back to where we should be. So yes, without a doubt, this election cycle is about the
highest stakes possible for our nation.
There is a lot at stake in November for the American public and it really comes down to
one question, which is, who do you actually best believe deserves to make the choice for
you? Do you make the choice for yourself or do you allow the government to actually make
the choice for you?
2018 is another election about Donald Trump. What they want to do is shut up the deplorables.
They want to shut you up because you know what? They're scared of it. They are scared
of what he's done. They're scared of the economy that he's created. It scares them that our
allies in the world love us and trust us more than ever because they were supposed to hate
this president, according to the elite media. They are terrified of president Trump because
they're terrified of you and your values.
There's a new Gallup poll that shows president Trump's ratings are on rise and 90 percent,
in fact, of his party supports the president. That's the second highest rating in modern
history for the GOP.
What is glaringly obvious is that the left and the opposition party in the media, they
do not have any answers against the make America great again agenda. They don't have any policy
solutions. They know that Trump is on the rise out there in the polls because he's doing
what he was elected to do. He's delivering jobs. He's securing the border. Even his foreign
policy, probably the greatest foreign policy we've seen in decades. 2018, therefore, represents
a vote for Donald Trump or vote for impeachment of Donald Trump because they cannot defeat
this agenda at the ballot box.
If the Democrats win the midterms, they are going to go after Donald Trump for impeachment.
The only thing that could run on is hatred and the impeachment of the president, it is
a foregone conclusion, but if they lose the house and the Senate impeachment proceedings
will begin almost instantly.
We have some real big issues that we're going to be losing on. One is infrastructure, which
was another big campaign promise. Building the wall is going to be imperiled, and depending
on what happens in the Senate, the whole judicial nomination could come to a complete and grinding
stop. We're going to have some Supreme Court vacancies that are going to determine the
future of this country for the next 50 to 60 years. Those are critical nominations and
they need to get confirmed by the Senate when they're made and if we lose, if the Democrats
take the Senate as well, we're going to lose all those judicial nominations.
And that's why we must do everything in our power to block this appointment. Let's take
a page out of Mitch Mcconnell's book and not have a vote on this until the midterm elections.
If they take the house, we will have a divided, impotent government where nothing gets accomplished.
It will be ugly and horrible even beyond the ludicrous and dishonest impeachment hearings,
which manifestly corrupt Democrats will be conducting in the full light of day with everyone
knowing that it's purely a partisan exercise.
I don't respect this president. I don't trust this president. He's not working in the best
interests of the American people. His motives and his actions are contemptible and I will
fight every day until he is impeached.
We have to keep the house because if you listen to Maxine Waters, she goes around saying we
will impeach him. We will impeach him. Then people said, but he hasn't done anything wrong.
It's time for his agenda to be enacted fully and we need the midterm elections to stay
with the Republicans for that agenda to continue. Otherwise you're going back to more regulation,
more taxes and more state control from an Obama-Clinton approach to government.
Going out in 2018 is like going out in 2016 or going out in 2020. This is a referendum
as to whether or not the forgotten man will be remembered and whether or not the deplorables
will still be heard and whether or not we live in a system where a duly elected president
is allowed to do his job. The president is unstoppable. What he did when he ran for president
wasn't done for money and it wasn't done for fame. He will never give up, but he's only
one man. For the last 30 years, our nation has been covered in an ice blanket of political
correctness that froze solid, the media, the arts, and politics. We allowed that blanket
to fall, but then two years ago, along came a man, the kryptonite of political correctness.
I will always put America first.
And like an ice breaking ship, he slammed into that ice and broke a pathway and freed
that sea lane up. But if you understand the physics of icebreaking, when that tungsten
hull rides down on that ice, and breaks it free. If you don't have a flotilla of ships
that comes in right behind the ice breaker, in real life, what happens? The ice comes
around the bow around the hull of the ship and then almost instantaneously re-knits itself,
and it closes off that water
America must create the flotilla. Every single person who is proud of what has been achieved
must come
to be part of that flotilla, to be what the military calls a force multiplier for the
president. The stakes of the next election are even bigger than the one that changed
the face of the nation.
