[0:00] well thank you wow thank you very much well thank you very much it's an honor to be back i love [0:18] this place i won this place is beautiful this beautiful state i won we won by a lot great to [0:25] be back in michigan and hello to the men and women of general motors and before we begin i have to [0:37] say so i have i had a wonderful father right and he was a hard worker he was in the real estate [0:42] business and for him super luxury this is all he didn't want planes they didn't have planes in [0:49] those days i don't think he didn't want anything you know what he wanted a cadillac every two years [0:56] this was to him this was to him the sign of luxury this was the greatest thing and he got every two [1:05] years like you could count on it you could set your clocks by it and by the way speaking of that [1:11] let's get rid of daylight saving time stuff okay we have a bill and hopefully the senate's going to [1:18] approve that one the house approved it and we're going to get rid of that just to mention you know [1:23] it's called the weave right i go from we always get back to the right subject but anyway but i did i had [1:29] a father his luxury mary his super that's all he wanted he just wanted a brand new cadillac and i have [1:35] to tell you a little secret he had it stretched a little bit this way he could be his own chauffeur he [1:41] wouldn't have to hire a chauffeur he could drive it himself or he could have somebody else but he [1:45] could also drive it himself did you ever hear that this could be a new concept for a car but i had a [1:51] wonderful father and he loved cadillac and i'm thrilled to be back in this beautiful state and i'm [1:57] honored to be the first sitting president to visit one of the most storied places in the history of [2:04] american auto making and that's the world world famous general motors proving ground and we just [2:15] got back we watched some cars and they are beautiful cars but i was very also impressed with that was [2:21] the largest piece of asphalt i think i've ever seen i've seen a lot of big asphalt but i've never [2:26] seen one that big i said you got to be kidding but over a hundred years general motors carved a [2:33] five and a half mile test track out of michigan earth and built a crucible for american cars that [2:39] would change the world and that's what happened you have changed the world and maybe more importantly [2:44] you have made a comeback like very few companies you are doing really well and mary and your whole [2:49] group have done a fantastic job they love they love their they love their cars one of the top [2:58] executives i just met he was showing he said you know sir i just love the cars i just love these cars [3:03] and i thought that was nice this land bears the tire marks of every model of the legendary chevy corvette [3:11] it bears the scars of the first auto safety tests and that was probably pretty tough and ever since the [3:18] presidency of the late great ronald reagan who in all fairness who i liked but he did allow our cars to [3:25] disappear into japan and other locations we cannot do it we love him but on trade trump is much better [3:34] much better but this facility is proudly designed built and tested the presidential limousine [3:43] affectionately known as the beast have you heard of it mr mayor i want to thank the ceo of general [3:52] motors mary barra as well as the president mark royce and the entire leadership team mark really great [4:00] great job the whole leadership team the job that you've done over the last number of years especially has [4:06] been incredible and it's a display of speed and skill horsepower goes into these cars and everyone's [4:12] talking about general motors including me that's why i'm here and more importantly thank you to the [4:19] auto workers the technicians the mechanics the welders the engineers of general motors because there's no [4:25] finer group of people and it was workers like you who built this country and now it's the men and women [4:38] like you who are making it bigger better richer and stronger than ever before we are doing [4:43] unbelievably well as a country we're building more auto factories and more plants than at any time [4:51] in the history of our country and someday the fake news is going to be writing stories about it [4:57] they don't like to write those stories that's why they call them the fake news but for decades the [5:03] auto workers and manufacturers of this great state were sold out and betrayed by globalist politicians [5:09] and corrupt special interests who let other countries steal your jobs pillage your factories that loot [5:17] the crown jewels of american industry from detroit and all over our country they were ripping us off not [5:24] only in the auto business but in many other businesses every president before me promised to stop it [5:32] but none of them did anything they did nothing but now at long last michigan finally has a [5:42] president who stands up for michigan auto workers and puts america first you know you had a leader i [5:52] don't know if he's still with you sean fain or something this guy was bad news i never spoke to him [5:59] never saw him he was a democrat he thought that biden or kamala would be wonderful they would if you [6:06] would have no you would have mary hate to say you wouldn't have an auto industry right now if they got [6:10] elected you wouldn't have an auto industry but i don't know what happened to the guy somebody said he got [6:16] fired but i can tell you the people that count those people love trump because i've done more for you [6:24] than your parents okay your parents are good i'm not going to knock your parents but i have been better [6:31] to you than your parents that i can tell you and they would agree with me wherever they may be they [6:38] would agree today i'm proud to say that the auto industry is back and america is back and it's pulling [6:45] detroit and michigan along with it our country is so successful it's pulling it along but you have [6:52] some great representatives that are going to become governor senator congressmen women but you're going [7:00] to you have some great people i'm going to mention them in a second because under sleepy joe biden hold [7:06] it what's better sleepy joe biden or crooked joe biden let's go sleepy joe biden crooked joe biden [7:17] they're both true they're both very true the united states had the highest trade deficit ever [7:24] recorded so we had the worst trade deficit and our country was losing more than one trillion dollars a [7:30] year on trade every single year and it got worse and worse and if they were in there now that number [7:36] would be close to two trillion dollars the trade deficit in automobiles was more than 300 billion [7:41] dollars annually that means outside countries and companies were coming in and just robbing us [7:48] blind and it was causing tremendous problems for your jobs but now all of that is changing because i [7:55] placed historic tariffs on foreign producers and manufacturers including a 25 percent tariff on [8:04] foreign automobiles something that no other president had the courage to ever do he's a communist he's a [8:18] communist thank you he's a communist we're running against communists now this is great what's going [8:36] on but we're gonna win very big no i didn't even hear the guy i think you see what they want to do [8:47] you see what they want to do they want to take your houses they want to do things that nobody's ever [8:53] even thought of before they want to take your money they want to raise your tax up to 80 percent [8:59] i gave you the biggest tax cut in the history of our country so we'll keep it there and i said this [9:09] morning i see this morning they also want to fire the police they don't want police and they don't [9:13] want prisons anymore i think that's a great idea does everybody like that idea no police they want [9:19] no police and they want no prisons where are these people coming from but i also put a 25 tariff on all [9:28] foreign trucks so i called mary about a year ago and i said i hear that foreign trucks are killing us [9:34] she said that's true i said congratulations i'm going to put a 25 percent tariff on the foreign trucks [9:40] and you are doing a phenomenal business now with trucks so they were killing us in trucks and now [9:50] we're killing them my policy is simple if you make your truck or your car in a foreign country you have to [9:57] pay for the privilege of sending it into our market and make it a lot of money but if you've been [10:03] in a factory in michigan or someplace in our country and make your automobiles or trucks right here in [10:11] america you pay zero tax and zero tariff you pay zero zero there are no tariffs and we've taken in [10:20] hundreds of billions of dollars for the country aside from it but we keep a lot as an example europe is [10:27] being taken over by the chinese cars you know that right mercedes-benz is being absolutely decimated [10:34] bmw good companies decimated volkswagen decimated they don't do anything about it we don't have to [10:41] the best of my knowledge marry one chinese car in the country they have a hundred percent tariff [10:47] and our automakers are doing i think business like you've never done before right right you're doing [10:55] more business better business bigger business than you've ever done before in 18 months we've slashed [11:01] our trade deficit with china by the largest amount in history nobody can believe it you know if you [11:07] get it down a half a point it's a lot we got our trade deficit down by 71 71 worldwide one year ago our [11:22] country was dead and now we are the hottest country anywhere in the world we're the hottest country everybody [11:29] is respecting us you know they respect us again they respect the united states i think they respect us more [11:37] than they've ever we did this in a year and a half in four long years of sleepy joe biden and his crazy [11:45] administration they're communists they were communists that was the beginning he wasn't because he had no [11:52] idea what the hell was happening they said joe let's go communist he said what is that exactly [11:59] they got less than one trillion dollars so think of it in four years they had investment of less than [12:06] a trillion dollars four years less than a trillion in one year my administration secured commitments of [12:13] more than 19.2 trillion dollars from all over the globe think of that one year 19.2 if they got in if [12:27] they got in and they were essentially they didn't think of themselves as communists but they were but [12:31] now you have down and out communists i mean these people are down and out and remember you go communist [12:38] nothing good happens that's been proven for a thousand years using different names but right [12:43] here in michigan general motors is expanding operations at its factory zero do you know what [12:50] factory zero is what the hell does that mean mary factory so you're gonna have to explain in detroit [12:55] to produce some of america's most iconic vehicles including the chevy well i hear it's good [13:03] silverado right silverado really hot right gonna be hotter after today the gmc sierra [13:11] the world famous hummer i got to look at some of these in fact i said to mary how about send me a [13:16] couple and one and only the escalade you know we ordered i think 250 escalades right we ordered 250 [13:25] escalades that's how we look sharp in those cavalcades you know we look sharp in those escalades our [13:36] guys are very spoiled they're very spoiled they like the escalade so do i they were great to deal with [13:41] general motors they're making literally 250 of them and it was about time in 2026 gm increased truck and [13:49] suv production by 20 percent and in the past two years the companies invested nine billion dollars [13:55] in bringing factories home to the usa they're coming back home because frankly when they build here [14:01] there's no tariff it's really not complicated a lot of people don't understand that they say oh what does [14:07] it mean they have no idea they don't have a clue but mary understood it her whole group understood it [14:12] and they're coming back home where they belong so i just want to congratulate general motors that's [14:16] why i'm here today i'm very proud of general motors for years you watch companies move production from [14:22] america down to mexico mexico i love the way there's a very nice president of mexico you know that [14:31] it's very nice and she speaks beautifully and she calls it mexico so i said to a group the other day [14:39] and we will stop all business going to mexico and they didn't know what the hell i was talking [14:44] it didn't come out as well sean it didn't come out as well this is a great gentleman heads up [14:52] transportation he's also world championship tree climber five-time champion tree climber can you imagine i [15:01] only hire these crazy people that do things like that he he was the lumberjack he was the world [15:08] champion going up a tree 100 feet right that's high i saw an old picture of you doing it i said he's [15:14] crazy that's why i like him but he's a five-time world champion you know who that is so and his wife [15:22] maybe is even superior big star of television rachel she's doing all right sean duffy rachel campus duffy [15:32] but you know i liked him a lot i always liked him but when i heard he was a world champion of [15:36] a tree but any kind of world champion i'm okay with when you're a world champion of anything but [15:41] that's pretty good but down in mexico and they're coming back and production's moving from mexico and [15:47] companies are actually moving production from mexico back to america before they left they went the other [15:54] way now they're all coming back toyota hyundai and others are relocating production back to the u.s [16:01] ford is investing three billion dollars to build parts of its new pickup truck in central michigan [16:08] all these things i told you but only brian where's brian my brian my come here get up here brian will [16:14] you please he's the only guy that believed me but boy did he believe me i wanted to just hop over [16:21] come on don't worry about it secret service he's okay come on up here brian see the way he can do that [16:27] look at that he evaded i'm sure they're thrilled thank you mr president well we can thank this [16:37] gentleman right here for all these jobs coming back and i hear it all the time from all my connections [16:42] at all the different auto plants around the metro detroit area jobs are coming back to america you know [16:52] kamala harris was running against this guy when he ran ran for reelection she wanted to get rid of the [16:59] internal combustion engine and crazy sean fein endorsed her so we've got to change the mindset [17:09] we've got to build if they want to sell in our market they got to build it in our market and that's [17:14] what this guy told them so thank you mr president it's because of you you saved our domestic auto [17:20] industry thank you look at the arms of that guy i don't he's been you know he's been with me from day [17:35] one the first time he said years ago and uh i think i produced brian would you say i produced even [17:43] more than i said right even more yeah exceeded that's true we like that thank you brian he's a great [17:53] guy and he's got a group of followers that are unbelievable where are they oh yeah there they are [18:00] he's got a great group of people but for decades we were told that it was totally impossible to bring [18:07] back american manufacturing obama would say remember barack hussein obama obama he was so bad for the [18:20] auto industry i don't know you know honestly i don't know how you vote for democrats because they are so [18:26] bad for the industry but it turned out that all you really needed to get him back was a new president [18:34] somebody that understood business understood what it was all about i've been complaining about [18:40] i've been complaining about it for many years on day one i ended biden's insane electric vehicle [18:47] mandate that would have crushed the u.s auto industry forever would have never come back remember that [18:53] everybody was supposed to have an electric car within you know 15 minutes and i don't want to say [19:00] this in front of mary because she'll change your mind but it takes far fewer people to build an electric [19:06] car that doesn't mean they work better but it takes and if you want electric car they make electric cars [19:12] too but if you want to buy a combustion if you want to buy anything you want they make we don't [19:16] want to do that stuff but right now we've been right on that bet i said no it's not going to happen [19:21] that way i terminated biden's disasters cafe fuel standards you know what that is that was a short [19:29] road to bankruptcy for every single car company in this country and a total disaster that would have [19:36] killed the internal combustion engine they wanted it dead within five years as long as i'm president that [19:41] will never happen but it's really it's going in the opposite direction remember we have a thousand [19:50] year supply of gasoline china doesn't china doesn't we have a thousand years we have more gasoline we have [19:58] more oil now when you add venezuela to it we really have more oil one day and venezuela has been great [20:08] they've been doing a great job we're working with them take millions and millions of barrels of oil [20:14] but they're doing well and we're doing well one day you know a lot of people were against that war [20:20] we don't want the vendors what are you doing what are you doing after we won in about 48 minutes [20:25] approximately they said oh that was a good move well the same thing's happening in iran people just don't [20:31] see it we have destroyed their navy we've destroyed their air force we've destroyed their leadership we've [20:40] destroyed their anti-aircraft weaponry their drones are being made at a rate of about seven percent we [20:49] destroyed most of their drone manufacturing capability their missile manufacturing capability [20:56] and right now they're talking to us about making a deal but if we didn't do it tough [21:01] there would be no talk you know for 47 years which is really 50 because people have been using 47 years [21:07] for three years at least but for 47 to 50 years they have been talking and all they do is tap everyone [21:17] along they were the bully of the middle east and they were the bully of us and obama came along and gave [21:24] them tens of billions of dollars he gave them 1.7 billion in green cash remember that put them on a boeing [21:32] 7557 flew it to tehran and 1.7 billion in green he thought he could bribe them and instead they thought [21:45] what a stupid country this is how stupid no you can't bribe them you got to beat them and we're beating [21:52] the hell out of them but we'll see how it turns out right now they have very friendly negotiations going on [22:02] and by the way how good is our navy with a blockade how not one boat gets it we have a blockade they'd [22:09] love us to please we don't want the blockade anymore they're saying please please no blockade [22:15] and i approve the single largest deregulatory action in american history repealing what is known as the [22:22] endangerment finding which will save american families an average of almost three thousand dollars on new cars [22:29] suvs and trucks what a difference and today i'm giving all american car companies the right to [22:36] build what are known as tiny little tiny cars you know what that is these little because i go over [22:40] to europe and i see these little cars all over the place and i say why aren't we making them they send [22:45] some over but sean duffy the secretary of transportation has just cleared it i was with [22:52] him on the plane i said sean did you clear that no sir not yet i want it done now oh it's done [22:57] he knows what he's very smart he's very smart now but we you're all cleared sean so your company mary [23:05] if you want i mean you have a choice it's a tiny little beautiful little car i'm not sure i want [23:11] to get hit by one of your silverados okay or one of your cadillacs but you'll make them as safe as [23:17] possible right you put a cocoon you put a little cocoon around them see i would have been a wonderful [23:23] automobile designer but you have the right to do it and they sell you know inexpensively they're [23:29] actually beautiful i don't know if i'm going to be using one i'm not sure if secret service would [23:34] love me driving around in one but uh there's a tremendous market for it i think it really is [23:40] tremendous market they are quite something and thanks to our republican majorities in congress we also made [23:47] interest on auto loans fully tax deductible but only if the car is made in america if it's not made in [23:55] america if it's not made in america we have no interest in doing that and i apologize for the air [24:05] conditioning but this room was not built for thousands of people this room was built for a few [24:11] people making cars not for thousands of people and it is a little warm up here but i love that because [24:17] every time i make a speech i lose weight it's wonderful it's a wonderful way to lose weight [24:23] under our leadership investment is booming incomes are rising and the stock market has 73 [24:30] all-time highs think of that in a year and a half we've had an all-time high and your 401ks are up by [24:39] 32 000 and more in just a year and one statistic that i say because you know the fake news the reason [24:49] their fake news are terrible terrible people in many cases not in all cases you have some [24:54] professionals but their reviews to say there are more americans working today in the united states [25:00] of america than at any time in history how about that that's to me that's a stat that's hard to [25:08] hard to beat and it was just announced that inflation is dropping at the fastest rate in more than six [25:15] years we're dropping and you know i inherited this mess i inherited an open border where millions 25 million [25:21] people came in many of these people were criminals murderers people from jails people from mental [25:27] institutions i inherited that we've got a lot of them out and we're getting a lot of them out we have [25:32] to we have uh 11 888 are murderers many of whom they say more than 50 percent of whom killed more than [25:44] one person we don't want them in this country they allowed them to come in through the stupid open border [25:49] they came in like water you've seen it and right now it was just announced again this is now the 15th [25:55] month in a row zero people have come through our border illegally zero but it all started you know [26:10] i won the election we wanted a landslide by the way and won this state so big you know there's always a [26:15] hard state i don't know why it's hard to win but it seems to be for republicans but it probably won't [26:20] be anymore we have great candidates but you know it's really it's really amazing they always try and [26:26] blame me for high prices i had my first news conference i win i have a news conference like [26:32] a day later and i say any questions why are prices so high you have to understand i just got there [26:42] eggs i remember eggs eggs were like four or five times higher than they were a few years ago there was [26:49] you couldn't get eggs they wanted me to use plastic eggs for that [26:53] the easter egg hunt because they were unable to get eggs and i said we'll take care of it we got it [26:59] taken care of quickly now eggs are much lower than they were when we first started and that's true [27:05] with everything else and you'll see how true it's going to be after we get rid of the nuclear threat [27:11] of iran which will be very quickly but i had nothing to do with it you know they have this term [27:21] so here i am i'm one day in office and the fake news goes affordability affordability i said what's [27:30] affordability what's that all about prices are too high i said i'm here for less than 24 hours [27:36] but we've brought down prices last week it was announced that uh inflation has gone down faster [27:43] than at any time in the last six years when when the fuel comes down which it did for a little while [27:48] then they didn't behave and i had to go back and now they're behaving again you know it's like [27:54] playing a banjo but every day we're fighting to put more money in your pockets and that's what we're [27:59] doing and we're doing it better than anyone at the same time we're making this country safe because [28:05] we're not going to let lunatics have we're not going to let lunatics have a nuclear weapon you want [28:10] to see disruption you want to see some disruption but with the help of our republican majorities in [28:18] congress i proudly signed the largest tax cuts in american history for the second time because in my [28:24] first term we had the greatest economy in the history of our country we got hit with covet at [28:30] the end but we and we did a great job in that operation warp speed and the whole thing we did [28:35] a great job didn't get credit but that's okay but we had the greatest economy in the history of the [28:40] country and we're blowing it away this time we're blowing it away you're going to see the results very [28:45] soon i'm a little bit upset because in two and a half years you may have a different president [28:52] may and and that president will be saying how great the economy is doing look at all the jobs [29:00] that he produced we have more factories being built than at any time in our country's history [29:06] they're all going to be opening now and soon and i got some guy or woman who is going to take credit for [29:14] that will you please remember that i did it okay i did it i did it i'll be sitting home i'll be reading [29:24] the papers i'll be watching television and i'll be having some guy like last time a real idiot [29:33] stand up say we are doing record business we are making more automobiles but by the way don't worry [29:39] about it mary they'll screw it up it won't take them long to screw it up but we're not going to let [29:43] that happen our great big beautiful bill gave us no tax on tips no tax on overtime and no tax on [29:51] social security for our great seniors right that's our big deal and the overtime you're working and i [29:58] don't know much but i know you're making a lot of cars more than you've ever made before i assume are [30:03] they getting a little overtime here uh she doesn't want to say she is i know you are no tax on that [30:11] overtime think of the no tax on tips in nevada i went and a young lady came over a beautiful [30:17] waitress she was a waitress and very beautiful but i'm not allowed to say that politically because [30:22] if you call somebody beautiful that's usually the end of your political career but but she happened to [30:28] be beautiful but she happened to be beautiful and i say what's what's going on sir i'm getting killed [30:34] with tips i'm getting sir there should be no tax on tips i say what i'm sitting down with a group of [30:41] people very boring group we're all bored at my hotel in las vegas and she comes up and she says [30:47] sir there should be no tax on tips i say say it one more time and i went outside and i spoke to the [30:54] fake news they're following me all over the world looking for me to make one little mistake if i make [30:58] one little mistake if i mispronounce a word which doesn't happen often if i fell oh they're waiting [31:06] they would love to because i knock you know you can't fall every single time you come up on a day [31:11] it's like biden did oh if i slipped even a little bit they would it would be headlines all over the [31:16] world so i get very i'm very careful very judicious as i walk down the airline way you're way the hell [31:24] up in the sky um go nice and slowly we don't want to give them but it's true it's like what they do i [31:31] mean it's so it's so unfair but they know how well we're doing and now they're starting to report it [31:38] because they have no choice because every every record that's being broken all these records that [31:43] are coming out not only in your business we're leading in ai we're beating china in the air nobody [31:48] expected that we're building more plants than anybody in the world and frankly the businesses [31:54] are all moving you know many of these businesses they left here and they went to foreign countries [31:58] they went to germany they went to mexico and canada they went to japan they went to south korea car [32:04] businesses a lot of businesses and now they're coming back home where they belong and according [32:09] to a report released just last week the great big beautiful bill saved more than 170 000 michigan jobs [32:18] you saw that think of think of that if you took 170 000 people off of your off of your tax paying [32:28] uh payrolls think of how my think of how many people that is filling a big stadium up three times [32:37] but remember every single democrat it's a new word that i use is democrat i just exchanged the e for the [32:44] u it works out quite nicely thank you but they're democrats they want open borders they want men playing [32:52] in women's sports they want transgender mutilization of your children they want the transgender mutilization [33:04] of your children for everyone so i call them democrats and the democrats don't want to have voter id [33:12] and the democrats do not brian you know this they don't want to have a thing called proof of citizenship [33:19] so why doesn't somebody want voter id or proof of citizenship because they want to cheat okay there's [33:27] only one reason actually most democrats do want it it's only the politicians because they could never [33:33] get elected if that ever gets approved they will never get elected again but every single democrat [33:39] in congress voted against our massive tax cuts for working families all of the things that no tax on [33:45] tips no tax on overtime no tax on social security all of these things they voted against they just voted [33:52] against they voted against voter id they voted in favor of the transgender mutilization [33:57] of your children in favor of men playing in women's sports i've looked at men playing in women's [34:04] sports it's very unfair i had a top top one of the top nfl football players standing next to a [34:12] wonderful female athlete and they were playing a game of football if you can believe this whole thing [34:19] this game did not work out very well this was not a game that she will ever want to play again i will [34:25] tell you the whole thing is crazy there's something wrong these people are crazy and we can't let them [34:33] get into office and ruin our country we can't do it and the congressional democrats voting for tax sites [34:46] they're voting for open borders the green news scam are their side remember the green news scam everything [34:53] had to be green green the world is going to collapse it's going to be gone 15 years ago they were saying we [34:59] only had 12 years left but we're still here but they're siding with the radical left communists taking [35:05] over the party they want in other words the normal socialists who can destroy a country too [35:12] they're not going fast so do you remember like in one of my state of the union speech i said [35:17] we will never be a socialist country but i was right we're going to be a communist country that's what [35:23] they want they skipped socialism can you believe it but communism is the greatest threat to our country in [35:30] history including even world war one world war two pearl harbor or 9 11. i mean this is a serious threat [35:39] because they're going to give promise all sorts of things in one year the country will be absolutely [35:44] bankrupt i just thought of it nobody ever says that you'll live in squalor you'll live in fear you know [35:50] i'm a i'm sort of a clean free you won't have police you won't get like clean you ever see washington dc [35:56] you see a fireman you won't have anybody you're gonna be washing what happened washington b it's [36:03] a disaster that even the sea it was filthy thought of it as a disaster and we have the hottest graffiti [36:10] all over the place we fix country in the world we don't want to have it and up 72 monuments and [36:16] fountains and we have to be strong about it we can't be nice you know a lot of we've done an [36:20] unbelievable we took the graffiti the republicans are nice we're very nice off the beautiful marble columns we [36:26] have nukes party we shouldn't be so nice to be honest grass going down but you know with you but [36:33] we can't let them know we did the best we stopped crime in washington get their claws [36:38] into antennas down 88 percent and this incredible they call it an experiment we moved out over 5 000 [36:46] experiment i don't think it's any longer an experiment this has been career animals going on for a long [36:53] time we had good years bad years we moved them out and it's really considered we're having the single [36:58] greatest year in a very safe city all the restaurants were closing up we've ever had as a country nobody [37:05] wanted to operate a restaurant we have a great we're not going to let these people destroy a restaurant [37:10] here run where are you from michigan where's my restaurateur he was one of the great where's mark [37:23] and you know the other thing i'm just mark mark you're right how do you get stick it now you know [37:28] i do a lot of these speech it's such a good seat because then i end up reading about 20 he's a great [37:35] restaurateur but everything he presents isn't it nice to know that you have some you have his clean [37:41] but you know it's true but it doesn't have to read his speech oh and i'm just saying they take [37:47] go and it's even better to know that you have somebody that over everything becomes disgusting and [37:51] you can read read his speech if he wants to the other guy it's dirty and filthy and grimy [37:57] couldn't even read his speech but i'm it's not clean anymore just thinking about it this is maybe [38:03] going to make news because look at washington dc what i've done in a short i've never said i'm just [38:07] thinking about now one period of time working with the department of interior they take something over [38:14] it's all doug bergam and the whole group we always dirty

the hospital now but it's going to get better very the republican-run cities [39:03] i mean for the most part soon it's almost it's almost ready to open but they're dirty and we could [39:10] have kept it that way for a while but i i said to somebody about a certain didn't want to do that i [39:15] wanted to get i want to have it fixed i don't want to say the name of it but it's perfectly but these people [39:20] are very terrible but think how beautiful washington dc is but the most important thing is we have very [39:26] little crime and there's a statistic that's incredible two percent of the people create 91 [39:33] percent of the crime because you can handle two percent of the people we get them out we get them [39:39] out and our military our national guard has been unbelievable and they work with the dc police [39:46] but they've been unbelievable so i just want to thank them but washington dc is now again [39:53] and it's going to get only better it's going to get all new grass the parks are getting all new grass [39:57] ever a man who's a fantastic man one of the biggest grass growers i know everybody i know grass growers but [40:04] he's actually a very rich guy he

and it's so beautiful again and people are proud of it it's our capital they have to be proud of [40:38] it it was a crime ridden mess and the other thing i got a call from the governor of louisiana and he [40:50] said sir we have mardi gras coming up in new orleans could you please help us we are such a disaster the [40:57] crime is so bad and they've had a lot of problems with crime and i sent our team in there and called [41:04] me back he said you know crime is down almost 80 percent think of that almost 80 percent this was [41:11] eight months ago and they had the safest mardi gras they've ever had and in memphis tennessee the [41:18] governor called and the mayor called the democrat mayor called and they need help and memphis was [41:25] very very dangerous companies were leaving too much danger it was really dangerous you couldn't walk [41:29] down the street and now crime there is down 77 and it's getting better all the time and if they do [41:35] that in new york

accounts we're going to be taking care of our [45:23] children we're going to be matching those you know we have a president who keeps his promises [45:31] we have a president who looked at his situation and he said you're going to have very fast planes [45:36] in macomb county you know what he did in the very first 100 days the president of the united states [45:40] president donald j trump delivered f-15 ex to self-retarial national guard base the president has [45:50] always been looking out for michigan jobs the status quo doesn't work for michigan the president [45:56] trump is pushing back and as a result president trump signed my bill to protect our automotive [46:01] industry against the harmful california ev mandates and as a result our jobs are coming [46:05] back to michigan but most importantly most importantly the president because the best deal [46:14] maker the planet has ever known president donald trump has gotten 19 trillion dollars of investment [46:20] back in the united states of america but because of the failed policies of gretchen whitmer a lot of [46:25] that investment is not coming back here we're working with you mr president we're going to

more manufacturing jobs back to america back here to michigan and i'm proud to stand with you [47:40] today sir in recognition of that and thank you so much for coming to michigan again today talk about [47:55] the american dream born and raised in flint michigan the birthplace of general motors son of a father a [48:05] grandfather a grandmother a aunt a uncle that all work for general motors son of an educator protecting [48:13] america getting back to the fundamentals and the foundation that made us great in the beginning [48:18] that's what we're doing this cycle the contrast is clear the time is now if you love america make noise [48:25] if you believe in first responders make some noise you back our military make some noise and if you're [48:32] proud to be a conservative usa let's go baby we are putting this country back on the map because we [48:49] have a leader who stands up for us mr president thank you for coming to michigan but i also have to say [48:54] thank you for defending our military and putting us in a position to succeed this time last year i was [49:00] in iraq during the 12-day war you put our military in a position to succeed because you gave the troops [49:06] what we needed to survive so my friends that are home sir because you put us first you put michigan [49:12] first as well it took 47 years to stand up and say lunatics can't have nuclear weapons it also took [49:26] decades to reassure jobs reshoring jobs wasn't a thing that we talked about before president trump came [49:32] back now jobs are coming back to michigan because we have leaders to stand up for us we need to win [49:38] this election in november so we can keep growing thank you mr president let's go michigan bring my box [49:51] so i apologize but take a moment take a moment and look around look at how many people are filling this [50:00] manufacturing facility and why is that that is because we love this country and i'm going to share with [50:09] you if you love this country you have got to get out there and make some noise you have got to get out [50:15] there and vote you have got to get out there and tell your friends your neighbors anybody who will [50:22] listen that this is an election between common sense and communist crazy and the leader the leader of [50:32] our party president donald j trump isn't resting on his laurels promises made promises kept he told you he was [50:41] going to secure the border what did he do he secured the border he told you he was going to make his tax [50:47] cuts permanent and what did he do he made your tax cuts permanent the last thing we need to do is make [50:54] sure we pass that save america act and we will do that because we will secure our elections to make sure [51:01] that this country continues to live in a democracy to continue to be a republic because there is nobody that [51:08] loves this country greater than the man [51:11] and standing behind me and that's our president donald j trump i never want to go behind lisa that's [51:22] for sure but as dean of the michigan delegation you can see why i'm proud of this delegation and the [51:28] ones that we're going to bring to this delegation and even one we're going to bring to finally be an [51:32] ally over on the other side of the house that little body over in the senate a guy we can talk to [51:39] understands america who supports this president that is imminently supportable and we say that out there [51:45] today i'm also chair of the education and workforce committee we have a president understands [51:50] workforce that's why he's here with all of us he understands education that is not indoctrination for [51:57] communist crazy and that's what we're seeing today so let me say this to you as chair of the education [52:03] workforce committee we're here today trying to educate you to educate others to get out and work [52:10] to get this team in place so the final two years of this president maybe final two years of this [52:17] president will be so memorable that we won't need to worry about the future let's get out and work as [52:24] a workforce for freedom thank you thank you very much what a group thank you very much that's a great [52:59] group we got to get them elected also with us is the mayor of hamdramck amir kalib thank you very much [53:08] mr mayor and mark thank you very much for being here mark zarkin a great guy and a man who's been [53:15] with me from the very beginning again i have to do because this guy has been like he got it a long time [53:20] ago brian thank you very much brian thank you thank you very much especially he has been right from the [53:28] he got it right from day one you know so we don't forget that 18 months ago we inherited a catastrophe from [53:36] the biden and from the radical left democrats they created the worst inflation in 48 years wide open [53:44] borders with millions and millions of people from mental institutions insane asylum the world's worst [53:51] prisons pouring into our country from all over the world they came they came from south america they [53:57] came from the congo they came from places from all over the world we had transgender for everybody men [54:05] playing in women's sports crime ravaging our cities and the whole world was laughing at us as a stupid [54:13] nation they called us a stupid nation but they're not laughing anymore america is respected again [54:25] i think like we've never been respected before you so i went to the g20 i went to the g7 i went wherever [54:32] we go they're they're looking at us as the real leader again for a long time that hadn't taken place [54:41] under our leadership we're making the largest ever investment in the united states armed forces [54:48] and right here in michigan i got 21 new f-15 ex eagle tools for selfridge air national guard base ensuring [54:59] that michigan stays at the cutting edge of north american air power selfridge was very very important [55:06] it's a big deal it was closed it was over it was going to be closed now it's open we have the [55:12] strongest military anywhere in the world by far we have the greatest people we have the best equipment [55:18] in the world i built it during my first term and i'm using it now we had no choice again we can't [55:25] let what was happening in venezuela go on and it was very decisive but we can't let what was and is [55:34] going on they killed 52 000 protesters think of it in a four-month period for 52 000 in iran but we've [55:42] already paid for the venezuela operation as i said and likewise we're winning big time with the islamic [55:49] republic of iran and we're ensuring that they never have a nuclear weapon when somebody comes up and says [55:55] why are we doing this just say because we cannot let them have a nuclear weapon it's very simple [56:00] that's all you have to say there's nothing else you have to say if you understood the power of [56:05] the nuclear weapons you'd understand exactly what i was saying when i took office we inherited the [56:10] worst border in u.s history but we quickly turned it into the most secure border in the history of our [56:16] country by far and in the past 14 months a number that's not even believable but it is what it is [56:24] it's published every month a historic record of zero illegal aliens have been admitted into the united [56:31] states zero and now as you've been reading crime is plummeting nationwide last year we achieved the [56:39] largest drop in the murder rate ever recorded to the lowest level in 125 years 1900 that's before my [56:47] father bring up my father that's before my father was born 125 years lowest murder rate and that's [56:54] despite the fact that we have people in this country that shouldn't be here that's despite [56:59] that but a lot of them are being brought out very rapidly under my most favorite nation policy on [57:04] drug prices we're delivering the largest prescription prescription drug price cuts in [57:11] the history of our country by far with differences of 400 500 and even 600 percent nobody can believe it [57:20] we were the highest priced for decades the highest price in the world for drugs prescription drugs [57:29] and now we're the lowest price in the world so you think that was i won't bore you with the way i did it [57:35] but no other president was able to do it i'm not sure they even try but all of you have to go out and [57:42] go to trump rx.gov trump rx.gov and you're going to find that you're going to buy whatever you're looking [57:49] for it a tiny fraction of what you were paying to stop the massive theft of taxpayer dollars we ended [57:56] medicaid for illegal immigrants and we launched the war on fraud led by our great vice president jd vance [58:03] is having a tremendous we're we're finding we're finding unbelievable levels of unbelievable levels of [58:12] fraud minnesota that governor is so crooked elan omar with her brother so crooked but it's all it's all a [58:21] very serious investigation we're finding billions of dollars billions in just 18 months we've turned [58:28] this country completely around and it's still we're going to do still better but we have a turn where [58:35] we're hot jobs are up inflation is down our border is secure factories are opening at record levels [58:43] investment is booming michigan is thriving america is winning like never before and again [58:50] iran will never have a nuclear weapon with the help of our republican majorities in congress we [59:00] will crush violent crime to the lowest levels ever impose harsh new penalties for dangerous repeat [59:07] offenders they are very bad crack down on marxist prosecutors and we will end no cash bail which [59:15] really got the crime started more than any other single event no cash bail you kill somebody and you walk out [59:23] we will pass the great healthcare plan that's what it's called the great healthcare plan to stop [59:29] all payments to big insurance companies and give the money directly to you the people so that they can [59:37] buy their own healthcare which will be much less expensive and be a much better healthcare very simple [59:46] and the democrats are fighting us on that one too they're fighting us as hard as you can fight because [59:52] you know what they happen to be owned by the insurance companies the insurance companies receive [59:58] billions and billions of dollars a year they own the democrats and the democrats they don't want to [1:00:04] debate it they just want to fight it and we want to give the money directly to the people and you go out [1:00:10] and you buy your own healthcare you'll get great healthcare and have lots of money left out and we will [1:00:18] continue to remove dangerous criminals drug dealers human traffickers and child predators from our [1:00:23] country and we will always stand with the heroes of ice and border patrol they are heroes the abuse [1:00:30] they're attacking if you saw some of the people they have to deal with if you saw the toughness and the [1:00:38] craziness and the boy oh boy the roughest people really in the world they were led into our country by [1:00:44] biden and a group by probably i don't even know if he knew i don't even know that he knew people were [1:00:49] coming in i don't think they told them but they were coming into our country and they are the [1:00:55] roughest people in the world remember they used to say oh foreign people don't commit crime they make [1:01:00] our criminals look like babies it's the only thing good about them they make our people look like absolute [1:01:06] babies but they are you don't get rough trend de aragua the roughest in the world they cut off people's [1:01:14] fingers so they don't make a phone call you're going to make a phone call i'd like to call the police boom [1:01:18] their fingers are gone these are the roughest and worst people in the world they're out of here we've [1:01:23] got them largely out of here we can never let that happen again we can never let it happen single most [1:01:28] difficult thing that i've had to work with and finally we will pass the save america act through [1:01:36] the senate hopefully the senate call your senators and put pressure on them we won't get one democrat [1:01:44] senator to get your voter id with photo need a photo be nice so they okay good you know they want to [1:01:52] if they did id which they don't want to do they don't want a photo why don't they want to you know [1:01:56] at the democrat national convention they had an identification card that was bigger than most of [1:02:02] the people's chest it was hung on a chain with a picture and every fact about this person you can [1:02:10] imagine but for voting our most sacred thing you don't need they say voter id so we want voter photo [1:02:18] id and we want all voters showing proof of a thing called citizenship isn't that nice you read recently [1:02:30] in new jersey where tremendous numbers of people who found out that they were under voter rolls totally [1:02:36] illegally and that's all over the country that's nothing compared to what's going on in california and [1:02:42] minnesota and so many other states and hopefully there will be no mail-in ballots mail-in ballots are [1:02:48] inherently except for illness disability military deployment or travel if you're in the military [1:02:56] you're far away absolutely if you have to go someplace absolutely but mail-in ballots have proven to be [1:03:04] a disaster we're the only country in the world that in this form does them there's no other country in [1:03:10] the world because they're crooked they pass through too many hands when you go to a voter booth even me [1:03:17] i went to vote sir may i please see your identification sir i'm so embarrassed i know you're trump [1:03:25] please you have some identification i don't want to lose my job i whipped out i was lucky i had some kind [1:03:32] of a card on man and i didn't even know but i gave it you know thank you sir so i'm so embarrassed you [1:03:39] kept apologizing i said don't apologize you're doing your job that's what you're supposed to be [1:03:43] doing it was so beautiful and we will enshrine in permanent law where we had a big supreme court [1:03:55] victory the other day but not complete no men in women's sports and no transgender surgery and the [1:04:06] mutilization of your children they
