[0:00] to houston and new york lake where there's pride in every american heart and it's time we stand and
[1:16] north carolina special place this is a special place i love it i love it we're going to elect
[1:36] michael watley that's what we're going to do but i'm thrilled to be back in this incredible and
[1:42] beautiful state with thousands of proud hard-working american patriots you're trying
[1:47] you've built this country so i won this state six times including the primary six times
[1:55] and in 2024 we got more votes than any candidate in north carolina history that's not bad that's not
[2:05] bad and we won those record-setting victories with the help of a man named michael watley he was
[2:14] incredible you know he was the chairman of the republican party along with laura trump who's
[2:22] great and she's gone on to television stardom now can you believe this i said laura you gotta get
[2:30] she loves this state she was born here but what a team those two were the best team there were in fact
[2:36] i said to everybody anybody that would listen i said when i win this thing i'm going to take that
[2:41] guy from north carolina make him the head of the republican party which is exactly what i did
[2:47] and he was fantastic nobody better in the whole country i had my choice of the whole country i chose
[2:55] michael watley but with your vote in this election we're going to defeat the murderer and criminal
[3:02] protector he's a murderer protector the man who made north carolina the talk of our country the whole
[3:08] country was talking about it for its violent crime the radical left democrat roy cooper on november 3rd
[3:15] he's terrible no he's a murderer protector and he let out 3 500 murderers and criminals and we're going
[3:25] to elect one of the greatest men that i've ever worked with in government michael watley to go and
[3:31] become your united states senator so nobody used to think of north carolina as a dangerous state
[3:42] criminally dangerous it was like north carolina it was beautiful it was apple pie right and now it's
[3:48] one of the most violent and one of the worst in the whole nation and it all started with cooper and
[3:53] you have a lousy governor right now too but it started it started with cooper i remember cooper was
[4:01] your governor when you had helene the what they call it the the biggest water hurricane it was all water
[4:09] and it was brutal and i was here the following day you remember that but cooper did nothing he did
[4:18] nothing absolutely nothing and it took me it took a few months because it we were winning an election
[4:25] and as soon as i got here on january 20th your nation and your your whole nation but your state
[4:31] started to heal from helene who was one of the worst hurricanes not in terms of a lot of things but in
[4:36] terms of water i think it has the record everything areas that never saw water became literally islands
[4:43] they were separated by uh just tremendous amounts nobody's ever seen anything like it and i have to
[4:49] tell you elon musk i called up i said they all want starlink elon you couldn't get it and i said you
[4:56] got to do me a favor send me starlink and he sent hundreds of phones over starlink and that was what got
[5:05] remember because people they had islands all of a sudden you had islands out there and they were
[5:10] separated by vast amounts of water you couldn't leave them people were had no communication i did
[5:16] i called elon and they wanted to get them you couldn't get them and i called him and he gave he
[5:22] gave us immediately a tremendous boost by getting that but michael whatley is the one that carried it
[5:29] forward what do you have a bad guy or a good guy over there huh where is he who is he show it to me
[5:41] show him let me see his face oh oh it's a she hello she she's going home to mama who's watching right now
[5:58] her mother is watching right now on television furious at the daughter she's gonna walk and she's gonna get
[6:05] the hell spoken out of her i won't say but and the worst offenders are the ones that cooper released
[6:15] including to carlos brown jr who slashed irena zarutska in the neck nobody saw anything like that i think
[6:24] it's maybe one of the most violent crimes we've ever seen and if you let it run a little bit on
[6:29] television i didn't want to do it but if you let it run you see one of the worst things you've ever
[6:35] seen and he was released out of jail he was released by cooper your governor and many others were
[6:42] released too 3 500 were released but this was one of them yet others that they say i don't know how
[6:49] anybody can be as bad but they say they're just as bad but in this election i'm asking you to pretend
[6:56] i'm on the ballot just one more time i said that the other night i said that the other night because when
[7:05] i'm on the ticket i'm not bragging but when i'm on the ticket republicans have always done really
[7:10] well they go out they vote everybody gets elected everybody gets elected when i'm on but i just want
[7:17] you to go out and pretend i'm on the ticket because essentially i am we got to win this election if we
[7:22] don't all of those things that we got you from no tax on tips and no tax on social security for our
[7:29] great seniors and no tax on overtime the overtime no tax i don't know which is the most important to you
[7:35] a lot of people like no tax on social security for our seniors but they're all good they're all
[7:42] going to go away all of the things that we've done the strongest border in the history of our country
[7:47] it's all going to go away if we lose you're going to lose your border you're going to lose your tax cuts
[7:53] you're going to lose your wealth and our country is going to go through hell and we're going to be a
[7:58] laughing stock all over the world just as we were two years ago we were a laughing stock all over the
[8:05] world so on election day november 3rd vote to defeat the democrats you know i made the name change
[8:11] i don't know what happened i call them democrats because their policies are so dumb all you do is
[8:20] take the e you replace it with a u and nobody knows that there's a b nobody knows there's a b in dumb
[8:25] they think it's d-u-m so just think that i say it's a one letter change but they're democrats because
[8:31] the worst policy open borders transgender for everybody men playing in women's sports but you're
[8:41] going to go and you're going to crush the communists and that's what they are the communists
[8:45] remember i said at the state of the year we will not be a socialist nation i was right they're going
[8:52] for communist nation they're going right down to the bottom of the barrel for the people of north
[8:57] carolina this election is about safety and bad management like what he did like what cooper did
[9:05] in the whole term that i was in four years plus a year and a half there has never been worse
[9:12] management of a storm or hurricane than cooper in north carolina that's the worst anybody's ever seen
[9:19] and you're not going to have him go because he doesn't represent your values and i know you
[9:25] better than you know you i think but his handling of the hurricane the problem didn't get fixed until
[9:33] and remember that you go back and check your history books it didn't get fixed until january
[9:39] 20th that's when i came in and the first phone call i got as soon as i got to the oval office
[9:45] i said oh it was michael whatley he said president do me a favor they didn't do anything on i mean you
[9:53] people were living they were living outside they're living in mud and terrible the first call i get
[9:59] i'm walking into the absurd michael walk list on the phone i said what the hell does he want give me
[10:04] a break what is it my sir you have to come down immediately to north carolina you gotta because cooper
[10:11] didn't do anything he just left it remember the houses if they had a trump sign which is almost all of
[10:16] them that they wouldn't touch him remember that that was cooper if it had trump on it you wouldn't touch
[10:22] him they wouldn't touch him it was they were told if it has a trump sign you know vote for trump and
[10:27] all that stuff they were still up don't touch him and they didn't but whatley calls me he says you
[10:32] have to get down here sir and you have to and i did right michael i did and if it wasn't for you
[10:36] that call maybe you'd still be living in mud i'm not sure but it was michael whatley that got me to move
[10:43] my ass michael that's why sometimes i don't like him he's too aggressive he actually you know i'm
[10:55] looking at him he looks like such a nice man he's not really that nice he's a very effective man
[11:00] he is a real ball breaker let me tell you but he's great look in terms of representation which is what
[11:07] we care about that's the guy you want and he knows it and he's strong on crime strong on your economic
[11:14] world he's fighting all the time everything he wants is is really common sense and good for you and
[11:19] borders nobody's stronger on borders than you are mcgee so i just want to thank you for the great
[11:26] job you've done i hope they appreciate it i hope they appreciate it and he's standing next to a man
[11:34] that's uh represented me in the past and he was a great lawyer like great great great lawyer and todd
[11:41] blanche is now the attorney general of the united states of america he's the best he'll he'll go down
[11:49] a little early yet todd to say it's a little early yet but you know got approved a couple of months ago
[11:54] but so far you're doing great and i think he's going to go down i know i know a lot of them
[11:59] he'll go down as the greatest attorney general in the history of our country i believe that at a
[12:05] very important time at a very important time because there's a lot of bad people out there
[12:12] so for years pro-crime politicians like roy cooper have tried to bully you into silence while they
[12:18] turned your cities into blood-soaked killing fields flooded your communities with migrant criminals
[12:24] destroyed your schools with gangs and drugs and filled your streets with lawlessness filth and
[12:30] squalor you think joe biden could say that i don't think so think he could say that no he couldn't say
[12:38] that what what we went through for four years think of it yet a guy couldn't sign his signature
[12:45] would you please sign here sir yeah i'll send out to an auto pen but those days are over they're over
[12:52] president trump and the republicans in congress are making america safe again we're never going back
[13:01] to the disaster we had just two years ago and right here in charlotte you've seen the deadly
[13:07] consequences of weak cowardly sellouts to the radical left like cooper who was he's radical left you know
[13:14] he tries to pretend he's a moderate he's not he's a radical left weak person that's why just don't forget
[13:22] don't forget helene lovely name but not a lovely hurricane last year a beautiful beautiful beautiful
[13:29] 23 year old woman a young beautiful girl named irena zaritska was riding home on a train in charlotte
[13:39] after fleeing war-torn ukraine it was she was petrified of ukraine but you know what when she got on that
[13:44] train i watched that so many times when she got on that train she was petrified to be on that train
[13:50] she didn't want to be she went there she crawled up in the seat she just wanted to hide she was
[13:55] more scared being on that train in north carolina than she was being in ukraine with all the
[14:00] missiles and bombs but she didn't know that sitting behind her on the train was a deranged lunatic a
[14:06] dangerous monster with 14 prior arrests for violent crimes who set his bloodthirsty eyes on her
[14:14] right from the beginning you saw the guy i mean the tape is honestly it's terrible that animal stood
[14:21] up grabbed her around the neck and slashed a knife right through her neck and most people don't see
[14:28] the whole thing i'd never i i did it once and i wish i didn't but they don't they turn it off and
[14:34] right you know frankly the networks they don't even put it on you can't put it on most violent thing i've
[14:40] ever seen i think murdering her on that metro train where she died terrified and all alone and she knew
[14:47] what was happening it was a slice and she's looking up and she said what happened and she was dead
[14:51] shortly thereafter the animal who murdered arena zarutska should never have been on your streets
[14:58] after 14 arrests he should have been locked up for many many years but roy cooper released him he said no
[15:04] let's release him under cooper and the democrats no cash bail policy that monster and countless others
[15:12] were set loose to prey on the people of north carolina that's why i mean i know north carolina so well
[15:19] so much crime here national i mean it's on the national news in north carolina somebody was stabbed
[15:25] to death in north carolina somebody was shot and i keep saying what's going on with north carolina
[15:31] it's your governors it's your governors but it's cooper cooper was really bad as governor roy cooper
[15:37] also cut a deal with radical activists to release as i said 3 500 inmates some of the worst criminals in
[15:46] the nation into north carolina they came out of the prisons including savage criminals hundreds of
[15:53] child predators dozens of killers murderers and people serving life sentences he released them
[16:01] and you could take a look at some of the mug shots i don't know if you have a video if you can see a
[16:06] video around here someplace well yeah these are all mostly murderers and people of violent crime
[16:15] those inmates who roy cooper released have since murdered 25 people raped 99 and committed more than
[16:23] almost a thousand felonies he released these people this is just a small group of them i think you have
[16:29] a few of you uh a list if you'd like to see some of the rest now to a disturbing crime on a commuter
[16:36] train in north carolina the brutal murder of a ukrainian refugee has raised questions about why the
[16:41] suspect was not behind bars why was he out on the street why was this person free why was he free to
[16:47] roam the streets today i signed executive order to establish the north carolina task force for racial equity
[16:56] and criminal justice thousands of inmates will be released early 3500 inmates 3500 inmates governor
[17:03] cooper's administration saying that they'll fast track the early release of 3500 prisoners it involves
[17:09] free trial release fees and fines he's got 14 arrests a judge released him without bail in january
[17:16] but the question is which prisoners prisoners who have committed violent crimes are a part of that
[17:22] conversation task force is just the beginning and i'm committed to making sure we see real progress so
[17:32] that's what you get and uh you see it but there are many people like that terrible guy that terrible
[17:40] terrible person yet many of them released by roy cooper they're all over the streets that's why you're
[17:45] reading about north carolina all the time you know it's amazing we cleaned out washington dc and i learned
[17:50] something two percent think of it two percent of the people create 91 of the crime you can handle that
[17:58] think of it two percent and we now have washington which was one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in
[18:04] the united states it was a violent dangerous city we removed 5 000 animals but it was a dangerous violent
[18:12] city we removed 5 000 of them and washington dc is now one of the safest cities in the united states our
[18:23] capital of america and todd blanche had a lot to do with it we uh we think of it though how great that
[18:32] is because if it was 25 percent do the it was two percent of the people create 91 of the crime we can
[18:41] handle that and we did cut 5 000 of them out we have almost no crime people can't even believe it
[18:47] now it's clean it's beautiful it's the parks are up the tents are all taken away from the parks people
[18:54] are going there in record numbers the restaurants are all open the restaurants are closing you couldn't
[18:59] go to a restaurant it was too dangerous and now people go into the restaurants like nothing years ago
[19:05] in massachusetts there was a governor named dukakis michael dukakis you remember who had a very
[19:11] substantial lead for president he was going to win easily but he allowed a man named willie horton out
[19:17] of jail willie horton was a bad guy really bad guy same thing as this same as same exact thing and on
[19:26] his first day out he raped and murdered raped and murdered again and again and he ended up killing
[19:36] three women overnight dukakis took a rousing lead of 15 points and lost the election in the
[19:45] landslide because of that one advertisement they put it on just like we're putting this on because
[19:52] we have to make sure that michael watley gets into office not this guy got to make sure but remember
[20:01] that overnight he had like a 15 16 70 it was over the race was over and he ended up losing the race
[20:08] because of that one incident because he allowed a dirty rotten killer to come out and rape and kill and
[20:16] he did it a lot he was a bad one same as same as what you have over here same exact same thing but in
[20:25] a way this is worse because dukakis let willie horton out but cooper let to carlos brown out plus 3 500
[20:34] other hardened and dangerous criminals dukakis didn't do that he let willie horton and a couple other people
[20:41] out but this guy this governor when he was governor he let out 3 500 people many of them murderers you
[20:51] can either vote for roy cooper to set loose criminals who rape and murder your children and your population
[20:57] or you can vote for michael watley to protect and defend your children and your population so and i say
[21:07] this because i know him he's a great guy he's a strong guy though strong michael watley is the candidate
[21:14] of law and order it's all think of this it's bad enough with roy cooper where he vetoed laws to ban
[21:23] sanctuary city he vetoed laws on saying you're a sanctuary city you know what a sanctuary city is a
[21:28] sanctuary city is a place that protects criminals and in north carolina you protect a lot of criminals
[21:37] you don't protect your people you protect your criminals and this year in greenville a violent
[21:43] gang of illegal alien sadists broke into a home viciously attacked and sodomized the male victim
[21:50] and ripped out his fingernails one by one he said he's never experienced anything it was so horrible
[21:56] in fayetteville a haitian migrant flown in by joe biden sleepy joe crooked joe he's sleepy and he's
[22:04] crooked i never figured out which is better they're both true was arrested for stabbing to death a 77 year
[22:11] old woman a 13 year old girl and a four year old girl killed them all viciously violently roy cooper
[22:18] let them out roy cooper wants migrant criminals like these set loose on north carolina streets with
[22:25] sanctuary city policies michael watley wants them executed arrested or deported i have to do this
[22:41] today i mean i didn't have to the great ladies of north carolina know that they've traveled all over
[22:46] the world they follow me at least at least this time look at them at least you're getting younger and
[22:54] younger they've been doing this for a long time at least this time you're close you know when i'm in
[23:01] california they're there i say this is a very interesting situation what's going on with the hubbies
[23:05] but there are a couple of hubbies back there but what great people we've been together for a long time
[23:10] right they were there at the beginning from 2015 really because it started before 2016 and uh have
[23:18] i gotten better worse or the same they say better that's why i love them supposing they said not as
[23:26] good but you're still okay that's not good even if they said the same i wouldn't be happy but they've
[23:33] been my friends and over here you have front row joes all over the place you got these front row joes
[23:37] thank you they've attended 348 rallies they've ascended like 250 259 somebody told 259 and they're
[23:50] all happily married can you believe it keeps them happily married i don't know what would happen if
[23:55] you did if you attended none who the hell knows but it can't be better than it is but they're great
[24:00] people from north carolina but michael whatley will support national legislation to end no cash bail
[24:11] nationwide you know that's todd where it all started no cash bail where a person comes in
[24:16] kills you go to court you let them out no cash bail started in new york i think but it was picked up
[24:21] here and elsewhere it's terrible and he'll support mandatory pre-trial detention for serial offenders
[24:27] and severe penalties for repeat offenders michael will also support the death penalty for human
[24:33] traffickers large-scale drug dealers and anyone who murders a police officer anyone and michael whatley's
[24:43] going to ban sanctuary cities you're not going to have a sanctuary city in this state to protect
[24:52] so a vote a vote for roy cooper is a vote to give control of the u.s senate because that's ultimately
[24:59] forget about him he's not a leader or anything he's got but he's going to vote and we can't lose that vote
[25:04] it's too close they'll turn around everything as an example no tax on social securities they want to end it
[25:11] for your seniors they want to end it one vote could do it you got to get them in it's a vote it's a
[25:17] vote he doesn't have to be a leader he doesn't have it's a vote it's another vote they have we can't do it
[25:21] it's too close but it's a vote to give control of the u.s senate to the most extreme group of radicals
[25:27] ever to seek office and you see some of these lunatics that are going to maybe in some cases be
[25:32] elected hard to believe but certainly they did well in the primaries the primaries are a different thing
[25:37] though and the primaries are communists in state after state democrats have nominated communists who
[25:45] have vowed to defund the police close all prisons they want to close the prisons i think that's a
[25:50] great idea abolish ice open our borders and grant mass amnesty and voting rights to millions and
[25:59] millions of illegal aliens well that's why they let them in that's why they let them in because they
[26:06] want them to vote that's the reason because it's the only thing you can think of you wouldn't
[26:10] they cheat so much you wouldn't think they had to do that but they they let them in because they
[26:14] want them to vote you worked your entire life for everything you have you saved your money you followed
[26:20] the law and now roy cooper and his band of communists want to take everything you have and give it to
[26:25] people who would rob your house invade your border shoot your just shoot you dead they'll shoot you dead
[26:32] then they go to sleep at night wake up in the morning and not even remember that they killed you they
[26:38] couldn't care less they're animals they're killers on election night north carolina is going to prove
[26:43] that america does not belong to those who hate it america belongs to those who love it they love it
[26:52] so while the democrat communists are trying to turn america into a crime-infested third world country
[27:13] which by the way if i didn't win this election this country was finished they were finished you know we
[27:21] have more money coming into the country over 20 trillion dollars with a t than five times more than
[27:27] ever before more than any country has had by four times no country it was china 10 years ago no country's
[27:35] ever had anything like what's happening here and you see it all over with the car plants being built
[27:40] everything is being built the trump administration is putting record numbers of dangerous offenders behind
[27:46] bars i mean i got elected partially on that you know we i inherited the worst border in history twice
[27:53] in 2016 but in 2016 it was good by comparison to what it was remember kamala she was your border czar
[28:01] she was your border czar remember she was appointed border czar she never went to the border once and
[28:09] she never made one phone call to any border patrol agent other than that she did quite a good job actually
[28:15] what a terrible person what a terrible job she did last year we achieved the largest drop in violent
[28:22] crime ever recorded while the murder rate fell to the lowest level in 125 years that's 1900 125 years
[28:32] and that's despite the fact that we have people in our country that should not be here but we got many of
[28:39] them out we got in a certain way in terms of the violent ones i'd say we got most of them out so you
[28:45] don't have to worry too much ladies i hope and since i took office federal law enforcement has
[28:51] arrested an incredible 1.2 million criminals nationwide that's a record and we've increased
[28:57] federal criminal prosecutions by over 50 percent that's todd blanch with the help of our national guard
[29:05] we've also restored public safety to our nation's capital and we have really done a job think of it
[29:12] think of it people were petrified to go to our capital then they hated to see national guard there
[29:18] and these are central casting people they're very good you know we did win one thing in the supreme
[29:23] court they've treated me quite badly thank you but we won one thing merit everything now is based on
[29:30] merit that's sold because our country was built on merit i want to thank the heroes of ice border patrol
[29:38] the doj the fbi dea atf hsi the u.s marshal service and every other branch of law enforcement helping
[29:48] bring crime to the lowest number in recorded history thank you very much no but i was going to say
[30:15] before so i didn't have to be here tonight it's a little bit before the election but i had a little
[30:21] free time if you can believe it i said let's go out let's get a little group together how about this
[30:26] outside you got twice the number as you have inside next time could you get a little bigger
[30:31] place please michael do you mind i got a lot of people outside but i wanted to be here for michael
[30:37] i felt it and i'll be back i'm going to come back we got to make sure he wins but michael was also an
[30:46] incredible champion for your state when you were hit with that terrible storm the uh the storm you know
[30:53] a lot of people call it with texas and florida and all they call it from the standpoint of water the
[30:58] worst hurricane they've ever seen and i've gone over it roy cooper was the governor and he did
[31:03] absolutely nothing he fought it he didn't want to do anything he didn't do a damn thing
[31:08] and matt watley and again you got to remember there's two things crime and helene remember helene
[31:14] that name such a nice name such a vicious violent storm but he was the number one advocate and i
[31:21] delivered and also your congress people were fantastic republican congress people they came and
[31:27] they worked with michael is hard i've never seen anything like it the the democrats didn't do a
[31:32] damn thing the republican congress people came and we got to be friends really fixing this place up
[31:38] and we spent more than two billion dollars fema funding and you know you're waiting for some
[31:44] additional money to take care of some of the back and i'm going to get that to you michael
[31:48] now if michael loses i'm not sending it okay no i'm only kidding you're getting it you're going to get
[31:55] it michael so he's been bugging me he's been bugging me but it's almost three billion dollars for
[32:05] repairing roads and bridges that haven't been fixed yet by the democrats and we approve relief
[32:11] applications for almost 20 000 north carolina small businesses and i got to be very friendly
[32:17] with a lot of those small business owners because i came here three times during that period that was a
[32:22] terrible period of time one of the worst i've seen i've seen tornadoes i've seen her i've seen it all but
[32:27] that was one of the worst i've ever seen where people were stuck on islands it was people that
[32:32] had very little water were stuck on islands and they were stuck there for a long time we had to
[32:37] have helicopters and things a lot of people did a great job so i'd like to ask a man that i consider
[32:43] to be one of the best in any country but one of the best in our country one of the most talented
[32:49] people one of the finest people a truly nice man but a truly competent man michael whatley please come up
[33:15] you know back in 2015 i got a call from trump tower asking me if i would help a businessman run for
[33:23] president in north carolina and at that time he was at one percent in the polls he was 15th out of 15 in
[33:31] that republican primary and i said yes i said yes because i watched that man come down the escalator
[33:43] i watched that man say he was going to make america great again and it wasn't just a pithy campaign
[33:52] slogan that he borrowed from president reagan it was a plan to rebuild our economy to restore our
[34:01] borders and keep our communities safe and make sure that america's the strongest most respected
[34:06] nation on the face of the earth and i said yeah i'm with that guy here we are 11 years later
[34:17] and every single day donald trump is fighting to make america great and i am still with that guy
[34:27] and i'm excited about running for senate because i want every north carolina family to make more money
[34:35] to keep more money i want every community to be safe and secure i want us to have the strongest army
[34:45] navy air force marines and coast guard in the entire world i grew up in blowing rock about an
[34:54] hour and a half from here a tiny little town 534 people we had one stoplight in the hardys now they
[35:01] got three stop lights and an outback it's huge i went to church i went to school i worked i got my
[35:11] first full-time job at 14. i worked all through high school paid my way through college paid my way
[35:18] through graduate school and law school three weeks after i graduated from law school i met suzanne
[35:24] and i fell head over heels in love it took her a little longer we have been together 28 years
[35:35] since we have three absolutely fantastic kids michael and george are here tonight and they're in a
[35:43] great place to go do great things you know what i call that i call that the american dream and i've
[35:49] lived it right here in north carolina and i'm running for senate because i want every one of your kids
[35:57] and every one of your grandkids to live the american dream just like i have here in north carolina
[36:08] and i am excited about fighting for north carolina for every family for every community and fighting
[36:14] alongside the greatest president of our lifetime donald j trump thanks michael you're gonna win
[36:29] michael so the democrats gave us the dark age of america and we turned it into the golden age we're
[36:37] right now in the golden age of america and that war that war is gonna end very soon watch you just watch
[36:44] trump was right about everything you watch they're getting decimated and they want to make a deal so
[36:50] badly they call we want to make a deal we want to make and they're not ready yet i don't think but
[36:54] we could have a deal anytime we want and i've delivered on every single promise i made and far
[37:00] more than the promise i made promises but somebody wrote an article recently he actually did much more
[37:06] than what he promised which is true but since the election the stock market has set 80 all-time record
[37:12] highs and here in north carolina we've created more than 80 000 jobs and more americans are working
[37:18] today right now we have more americans working than at any time in the history of our country that's
[37:24] a sound bite that nobody can argue with just yesterday it was announced that real incomes have
[37:31] soared to the highest level in history surpassing the record that i said in my first term we lifted 1.5
[37:38] million people out of poverty last year the poverty rate for african americans hispanic americans native
[37:45] americans just hit an all-time record low the lowest ever and for the native american community here in
[37:56] north carolina i got the lumbey fairness act done and i hope the lumbey tribe is going to vote for michael
[38:04] because you got to do that so the lumbey's i know you got a lot of lumbey's here i like the lumbey's
[38:08] actually but you got to vote for michael whatley less than two years ago our country was dead it was
[38:16] a dead country and now we're the hottest country anywhere in the world we're all that anybody talks
[38:21] about the only problem we have is that interest rates are artificially high interest rates in the
[38:28] united states should be one percent or less because we are the best credit in the world by far with all
[38:34] that money pouring in our country is booming with new investment more than anybody else ever
[38:40] and if we stop trading with every country that we have a deficit with which is most of them and which
[38:46] would be very easy to do we'd make at least 1.5 trillion dollars a year we do that because it's almost
[38:54] like a reflex the word deficit you have to understand is nothing more than a fancy word for loss so we do
[39:01] these countries we don't need anything for them and you ever notice they're considered elite i don't
[39:06] want to mention the names they're elite they're only elite because we allow them to trade with us
[39:12] and we allow them to make far more money than they should be they're not elite we're the ones that are
[39:16] elite and if i ended those deals you would see a country that would make more money and you see the
[39:22] elite countries go right down the tubes we're carrying almost every country in the world and that
[39:29] really cannot go on that much longer i'm letting them know i'm gonna say let uh can't do that we
[39:34] just can't do it why should why should we carry canada why should we carry mexico although we're
[39:41] very close to a deal with mexico a great deal why should we carry so many countries in europe we're
[39:46] carrying the european nations with a 200 billion dollar deficit all we have to do is say you know what
[39:53] we're not trading with you anymore we don't need anything they have we have cars we have lumber we have
[39:59] food we have everything it's a beautiful thing about we have very few countries there's some that
[40:04] we have certain things which is helpful but lower the interest rates for the united states of america
[40:10] and fast because we can grow at a level that nobody's ever grown before you know every time we start to
[40:16] grow we announced great numbers last week you saw that with the 162 000 jobs it was like five times higher
[40:24] than projected and i say that's bad news they say why i said because the stock market will go down because
[40:31] every time you have good news they raise interest rates supposed to be the every time you have good
[40:35] news you're supposed to lower interest rates because we become an even better credit but we're going to
[40:41] get it right and we're going to go up at levels that nobody's ever seen the war's going to end soon
[40:47] and we're going to get it up we're working very hard to get russia and you know i ended eight wars
[40:51] and the one that's the toughest is because of hatred i ended eight wars and the one that's the
[40:58] toughest is russia ukraine they hate each two leaders hate each other so much and it's a you know
[41:05] hatred is very interesting war is very interesting but it's too bad and that's what's driving actually
[41:11] that's the war that's driving up the diesel prices but it's all going to end very soon
[41:15] and you're going to end up having a country that nobody's ever seen before because again
[41:19] we have more jobs being created now and more factories being built than any time in the
[41:24] history of our country it's going to be a beautiful thing it's going to be very soon
[41:29] with the help of republicans in congress i signed the great big beautiful bill giving you the largest tax
[41:35] cuts in american history giving you no tax on tips no tax on overtime no tax social security for our
[41:43] great seniors we made interest on car loans if you go out and buy a car it's deductible against
[41:50] your income tax first time that's ever happened but only if the car is made in the good old usa
[41:57] otherwise we're not and in four years of sleepy joe biden's administration they got less than one
[42:06] trillion dollars of new investment in our country think of it four years much less than one trillion
[42:12] dollars and it was going negative in one year and now it's and a few months because we have the new
[42:19] numbers for a few months so it'd be actually one year and they went out for another three months
[42:26] we have 21 trillion dollars it was 19.2 now the next number think of it so they had less than a trillion
[42:36] of investment in our country for a period of a year and we have 21 trillion actually more than that
[42:45] think of that 21 trillion we have 21 trillion in essentially one year and they have in four years
[42:55] less than one trillion that's a number that nobody's ever seen before maybe you won't see it again
[43:00] but very importantly pharmaceutical companies are currently investing more than 600 billion dollars to
[43:06] build their factories in the united states and much of it actually i saw today much of it right here in
[43:12] north carolina they're building in north carolina and every single democrat in congress voted against
[43:20] our tax cuts they voted against no tax on tips they voted against no tax on overtime they voted against
[43:26] no tax on social security for our seniors the democrats voted against funding for
[43:32] the border they voted against voter id and they voted against proof of citizenship when you go to vote
[43:38] they don't want it because they want to cheat they voted in favor of trans gender everything taxpayer
[43:44] funded child utilization and men playing in women's sports i mean you figure that one they say that's
[43:52] an 80 20 issue no that's a 99 one that's and it's very demeaning to women frankly north carolina you
[44:00] cannot let roy cooper give you these horrible policies these policies of weakness and stupidity
[44:07] you have to get out and vote and that's why i say you got to pretend i'm on the ballot just go
[44:12] if i was on the ballot i wouldn't have to be here tonight we'd get everybody out but some of you like me
[44:18] better than you like the party the party's good they've got great people in the party they're sane
[44:23] people they're people of common sense it's a good party so but we're thrilled to be uh you have so many not
[44:34] only todd blanche but we have the director of the federal uh housing finance agents he's a great guy

[45:38] we will also have our candidate for the first congressional district laurie buck out and i
[45:44] will tell you she's fantastic she's running against a radical left democrat named don davis
[45:51] davis voted in favor of taxes on social security he voted in favor of deadly sanctuary cities he voted
[45:58] against no tax on tips he fought no tax on tips and by the way if they get in they're going to end it
[46:05] he voted against no tax on overtime he voted against no tax on social security he voted for the sexual

[46:19] she's fantastic and so does and so does jennifer balcom so jennifer from the 11th district jennifer
[46:30] balcom and she's running against democrat jamie agar who wants to massively raise taxes on 70 000

[49:35] wow that's great well your photos they're just terrific people and they're a little new to the
[49:42] scene not really they they're known and respected in your state but i i just hope that you vote for
[49:48] them because they are fantastic people and the choice is really very simple for you you see what i
[49:54] i'm saying i mean it's uh their their competition is horrendous the democrats gave you a four-year
[50:00] catastrophe including the highest inflation in history yeah the highest you know they came up with
[50:05] these words about pricing and affordability remember affordability the first day i got in
[50:12] it was january 20th the next day i had a news conference january 21st and it was biden's thing
[50:20] and they said what are you going to do about affordability it was a word i'd never heard
[50:25] politically speaking it was a word they made up they passed it on to the fake wow that's a lot of
[50:30] fake news look at that that's a lot that's a lot of fake news but they passed it on to the fake news
[50:38] and i got hit with this affordability word for a year and a half and they're the ones that cause
[50:44] the affordability problem remember that it was on january 21st eggs have gone up five times sir
[50:52] i said i just got here i've been here one day we took care of the egg crisis
[50:56] i would take care of everything we also took care of the fact that iran will not have a nuclear weapon
[51:15] thank you thank you very much so now they're not going to have a nuclear weapon and you know i don't
[51:24] i'm the last one to say because we had gasoline down to a dollar 85 cents in iowa it was a dollar
[51:30] 85 a gallon i was there the day before i had to do this i had to make this journey over there remember
[51:36] we hit them with the b2 bombers we took out the nuclear capacity but then we had to go back at them
[51:40] again and i said you know i told my guys scott besson towered all of my people todd everybody i said we
[51:48] got to make a little journey down to the middle east because we can't let this crazy nation have a nuclear
[51:53] weapon and we stopped them and to be on it it's going to end soon but because they can't go on
[51:58] they can't go on their nation's destroyed but i have to say you have a little higher you have a
[52:05] higher gate it's a very inexpensive price to pay for what we've done remember that it's a little more
[52:12] it's even if it was frankly even it was a lot more but that's going to come tumbling down that's going
[52:17] to be like a rocket ship in reverse and don't forget they never want to talk the fake news about
[52:23] venezuela we took out venezuela in 48 minutes and and now we have all our big oil companies going
[52:34] there and we're working along with the government of venezuela very well the relationship is
[52:39] extraordinary we're taking out millions and millions of barrels of oil and i can't get the press to talk
[52:45] about it because they don't want to talk about it because they've never seen anything like it before
[52:49] when they say to the victor belong the spoils that's one of the greatest cases anyone's ever seen
[52:54] in history we paid back the cost of our war many times over and you watch what's going to happen
[52:59] iran it's going to be a really good conclusion it's going to and it's going to happen it's going to
[53:05] i say it's going to be a little bit after the election but maybe not maybe it's before the election
[53:10] but when you look at it is where we have the straight open we have all this thing and they've
[53:14] been decimated their navy's gone their air force is gone think of it their navy 159 ships
[53:21] every one of them's at the bottom of the sea every one of them our militaries and we put on a blockade
[53:29] the likes of which not not one ship in all the months that it's been not one ship going to iran
[53:36] has gotten through that blockade not one so i just want to thank our military say god bless our military
[53:42] because they're the greatest the greatest in the world and that'll end soon and you watch what happens
[53:49] to your oil to your gasoline pew it's going to come down very quickly i had it down to the lowest level
[53:55] in years i had a choice i could have sat back and enjoyed it or i could have done what's the right
[54:00] thing for i see these young children in the audience but if they had a nuclear weapon it would be a very
[54:06] bad thing a very dangerous thing and they would have used it absolutely without question i've gotten
[54:11] to know them they would have used it so we did the right thing on january 20th we inherited the worst
[54:17] border in u.s history and we quickly turned into we took that border we turned it into the most secure
[54:23] border by far in the history of our country in the past and this is actually sort of hard to believe but
[54:30] it's the you know the democrats are they're inclined deed you know what inclined they make up the stats
[54:37] in the past 16 months zero illegal aliens have been admitted into the united states who would have
[54:45] thought that was possible thought that was possible and under my most favored nation policy on drug
[54:56] prices we paid the highest price for drugs anywhere in the world we're delivering the largest prescription
[55:03] drug price cuts in recorded history with discounts of 70 percent 80 percent and even 90 percent and by the
[55:11] way that alone should win us the midterms remember that that alone no but we paid think of it for years and
[55:20] decades we paid the highest prices for prescription drugs anywhere in the world now we pay the lowest
[55:27] price anywhere in the world and i won't go into you with the boring details but i did a big number
[55:34] i had to do it in a lot of countries had to agree to things that they didn't want to agree to but they
[55:38] did we're making the largest ever investment in the united states armed force and we have the and by the
[55:43] way you have a lot of that money coming right here and we have the strongest and most powerful military
[55:48] anywhere in the world there's nobody even to compete and with our new and powerful relationship with
[55:56] venezuela we just made the largest oil deal in history and i think the largest deal in history
[56:04] we got 65 billion barrels of beautiful 500 years worth of oil 65 billion think of it billion barrels of oil
[56:16] we got it for what an attack we got it for an attack and remember if the republicans win the house and
[56:23] senate i will issue what we will all call from now on the trump dividend to every adult in america
[56:32] will get 5 000 and you'll get it because we're taking in so much money and we can do it and the
[56:43] democrats can't say that because they don't do the tariffs we tariffs have made us rich you've heard
[56:49] me many times talk about tariffs i said the favorite word in the dictionary the fake news killed me with
[56:55] that what about the lord what about your wife what about your family what about so many other things i
[57:04] made it number five now they're happy so tariffs is my fifth favorite word but we took in billions and
[57:12] billions and billions of dollars and tariffs so we can make a pledge but they can't because if they get
[57:19] in this country will go into a massive depression they don't know what the hell they're doing we're
[57:26] gonna have a depression like you've never seen so and for those who say that it would be difficult to
[57:32] do it's not difficult to do because if you remember the more money is pouring into our country right now
[57:38] but if you remember we will go and do things that nobody else has been able to do they said that the
[57:46] great big beautiful bill could never be approved it's 17 bills that we got it was supposed to be 17
[57:53] separate bills and it was supposed to be approved over a long period of time they said it would be
[57:59] impossible to do it or one and i came up with the name i call it the great big beautiful bill i like
[58:04] it better than the name the great big beautiful bill we got it approved and that's four years worth of
[58:10] goodies now we're getting more now we're getting much more mike johnson's doing a fantastic job doing a
[58:17] fantastic job and remember also for the military here 1776 dollars you remember one thousand seven hundred and
[58:29] seventy six dollars and it was so it came to my desk i wanted to get a bonus for the military so it came
[58:36] out to my desk sir we can give one thousand seven hundred and seventy five dollars i looked at the number
[58:42] and i said wait a minute for one dollar more you're 1776 which is pretty good i was i was quite impressed
[58:51] with my intelligence i'm a high iq person after all no i looked at the number i said wait a minute
[58:58] one dollar more and with 1776 everyone said it was impossible to get our military that number i got
[59:05] that military i am going to get for all adults democrat republican all adults in our country
[59:14] and you deserve it with what you had to do and how you had to suffer for four years under biden
[59:19] i'm going to get you if we win we're going to get you five thousand dollars so that's it very simple
[59:26] very simple i will also make the trump tax cuts the largest tax cut in history we're going to make
[59:34] the trump tax cuts again that's no tax on tips no tax on overtime no tax on social security for our
[59:41] seniors we're going to make it permanent we're going to put it in law so when the radical left
[59:46] at some point maybe they get in these lunatics if they get in we hope they never get in they'll
[59:49] destroy our country but if they get in they will terminate it we're going to make it permanent so they
[59:55] can't terminate it we'll win the war on fraud led by our great vice president jd vance sometimes referred
[1:00:02] to sometimes referred to as elliot ness of the fabled untouchables and we'll pass the no invasion of our
[1:00:14] country act we have an act that we're putting up prohibiting any future president from ever opening our
[1:00:21] borders to illegal immigrants again think of that we'll pass the no more changing your clocks act
[1:00:32] we're going to change no more to double crazy not the biggest but i'll tell you it's something
[1:00:38] so we don't have to change your clocks twice a year remember up down oh let's go all over the house
[1:00:45] change it like it's crazy and we will pass a health care plan that will be the greatest of them all
[1:00:52] which will stop all payments to the big insurance companies which own the democrats by the way
[1:00:57] the big insurance companies own the democrats and we'll give the money that would go to them we're
[1:01:04] going to give it directly to you the people so you can buy your own health care and have a lot of money
[1:01:09] left over and it'll be better health and we will immediately end no cash bail and we will pass the save
[1:01:18] america act to defend our sacred american elections which will make mandatory voter id and proof of
[1:01:25] citizenship and we will enshrine in permanent law no men in women's sports and no trans gender
[1:01:36] mutilization of your children so ladies and gentlemen of north carolina place that i really do love i love
[1:01:47] it the golden age of america is upon us but you must get out and vote and vote for michael whatley and
[1:01:54] those two incredible potential congress people they're going to be great they're going to be they're warriors
[1:02:01] i know them from before they're warriors and with your help we will make america powerful again we will
[1:02:07] make america wealthy again we will make america healthy again we will make america strong again we will make
[1:02:18] america proud again we will make america safe again and most importantly we will make america great again
[1:02:30] Thank you all very much. Thank you, North Carolina. God bless you. God bless you.
