[0:00] to be even louder than they were in Dayton. So everybody across this great country knows
[0:05] the question you've already been asked tonight, and this is Trump country. So folks, in 22 short
[0:12] days from today, 22 days, this state is going to have to make a decision about whether we choose
[0:18] communism or common sense. The Democratic Party has left the mainstream of American politics.
[0:26] Their ideas are radical, and they do not fit Ohio values. So we need your help to turn out a maximum
[0:36] number of votes so we can choose the path of common sense and growth and a great future for America in
[0:44] just 22 days. So, but I'm here. I'm here leading this grand old party, this Trump Republican Party.
[0:57] I'm here leading it with one central message to all of you tonight. And you may hear this otherwise,
[1:02] but I'm going to kick us off by making sure you know what that message is. We must turn out every
[1:09] single vote, especially right here in Mahoney County and in this valley. If we turn out our voters,
[1:17] we are unstoppable. We are absolutely unstoppable if we turn out our voters. So let me give you some
[1:28] numbers. So in 2024, in an historically good year for this Republican Party in this state,
[1:36] our good friend and the outstanding senator from Ohio, the senior senator from Ohio,
[1:43] Bernie Marino, won this. Thank you. Give it up for Bernie Marino. He's right behind me. But here's
[1:55] what I want to share with you about Senator Marino's race. He won that race. He retired. He retired
[2:01] Sherrod Brown, who's a lifelong politician, and he did it. Folks, he did this. He did this by winning
[2:10] the 8,900 precincts in this state by 23 votes per precinct. Don't let anyone tell you that your vote
[2:20] doesn't matter or your neighbor's vote doesn't matter or your child or your grandchild or your
[2:25] parents, everyone. You have to make a concentrated effort between now and the next 22 days to turn
[2:31] out those votes because that 22nd or 23rd vote in your precinct, in your neighborhood, could be the
[2:38] difference between communism or common sense. So I'm here to beg all of you to use whatever
[2:44] resources you have. Go on your Truth Social. Go on your Facebook page. Knock on your neighbor's door.
[2:50] Get involved with your local Republican Party and turn out a massive number of votes for this
[2:56] country. Now, now listen, I'm going to leave all of you tonight so you can hear from some of our
[3:05] outs. You're going to hear from our terrific team. And it's going to ultimately culminate by hearing from
[3:10] the greatest president in the history of the United States. But can you all join me? Can you all join
[3:16] me so they can hear us? You know, the president's watching. I want to start over here. It's going to
[3:21] be U. S. A. Let's do it. S. A. They were louder in Dayton. One more time. God bless you. Thank you.
[3:38] Morning Valley. Lieutenant Governor Jim Trestle here. And what an exciting day at the Covelli Center.
[4:06] What an exciting time in America. What an important time in America. It's an exciting time in Ohio.
[4:13] You know, we've just been named the number one state to do business in the nation. The number one
[4:18] state park system. We have more people getting the Imagination Library books sent to their homes at
[4:25] ages zero through five than anyone in the nation. Great things are happening in Ohio.
[4:31] President Trump, thanks so much for taking the time to be here in the Mahoning Valley.
[4:36] This is a critical time. And we've got some work to do here. We've got to make sure we get the vote
[4:43] out. Nothing more important for the citizens of America and the citizens for the state of Ohio
[4:48] is to go out and vote. Get your friends to go out and vote. Make sure we understand what an important
[4:54] moment this is in the history of our country. Specifically, I've had a chance to work with
[4:59] Senator Husted for years. So much of the movement we've had toward being the number one state in America
[5:08] to have business move here and expand here and stay here has been the work of the DeWine
[5:14] Husted administration, the General Assembly. So many people, business and industry, have gotten
[5:18] together and Senator Husted has certainly been a great leader with that. I've had a chance to spend
[5:24] some time with Vivek Ramaswamy. Education is so important to him. Workforce. He knows full well that
[5:32] he's got a great head start with the work that's done before him. I've heard him say it many times.
[5:36] Now we've got to make sure that we keep that workforce moving forward. Every Ohioan joining that
[5:43] workforce that can possibly do it. We've talked a lot about education with Vivek. We've talked a lot
[5:49] about the importance of healthy habits for children. You know, Governor DeWine has so many things that have
[5:55] gone on and great things that have happened with the youth moving forward. And I know Vivek is totally
[6:02] convinced that we've got to take it and run. We've got to make sure our youth have healthy habits so
[6:08] that they can reach their God-given potential. So we've got a lot of work to do. We've got to go out.
[6:13] We've got to get the vote out. We've got to get our friends. We can't thank President Trump enough for
[6:18] raising the awareness right here in the Mahoning Valley. And John Gruden's in the House. No one loves Ohio
[6:25] more than John Gruden. One of the greatest to ever coach the game of football. So have fun, get loud,
[6:31] get crazy, but more important, get out and vote. Please welcome to the stage Congressman Michael Rulli.
[6:55] I'm Michael Rulli and I am from Youngstown. My grandfather was raised on early red on the east side.
[7:21] My mom's from Lansingville and I've been delivering wine grapes to Struthers and Campbell since I can remember.
[7:26] I grew up on Elmton and Briar Hill Pizza. I love Jim Trussell and I love you. Let's go through the
[7:37] history of Youngstown. When I was in high school and college, all the politicians would come here
[7:43] with all their crap and say how they're going to fix us. We're going to do this. You know,
[7:47] even Bill Clinton came in and NAFTA came and destroyed everything. They said it was sexy to take all our
[7:53] jobs and put them in Mexico and China and Indonesia and Africa and they gutted the middle class.
[8:01] And then along came Jim Traficant and you had Jim Traficant, Ross Perot and the Tea Party movement.
[8:09] And we said enough is enough. Right now it's time for the working man. It's time for the Bruce
[8:14] Springsteen blue collar, Joe bag of donuts that's been screwed over by the government since the beginning
[8:19] of time. And that's where enough is enough. When President Trump came here, he said you're not
[8:24] the forgotten people. Last weekend I was in the plane with him on Air Force One and he says,
[8:30] I have a special surprise for you really. He says, I'm coming to Youngstown because I didn't forget them.
[8:35] He's had 35 requests in different cities in Ohio to go do this. This event didn't even exist 10 days ago.
[8:48] So if the fake media is over there saying it's not that full, looks pretty full to me.
[8:57] None of you people on these coasts know what it's like to be raised in this town.
[9:01] You're promised everything and they take it all away from you.
[9:04] President Trump is trying. He's trying with all his heart. We got to get things right.
[9:09] We got to make sure that the foreign markets and the foreign players stay out of our country.
[9:13] We got to make sure that there's no China buying our farmlands. We got to make sure that our
[9:19] manufacturing is in place and we got to make sure we get these property taxes under control.
[9:24] Enough's enough. We got to make sure that the data centers are under control.
[9:28] I'm not going to be here for long, but I represent you. I know Youngstown. I know what it's like.
[9:36] I mean, I've been taking your groceries out since I was born. Now my brothers don't let me near the
[9:41] store no more, but I'm with you. And I got to tell you real quick, today's Columbus Day.
[9:47] My grandpa Rulli, his brother Rocco and Nick and Frank all came over in the bottom of a boat with
[10:00] nothing from Italy with just dreams like the rest of you. And in my grandma Rulli's house,
[10:05] she had on the wall, she had her Alassane papers. Grandma Giannini had her Alassane papers,
[10:11] naturalization papers. We weren't allowed to speak Italian. The only Italian I learned was from you
[10:16] shopping in the store. We assimilated. We became Americans. But then I got into Congress and Joe Biden
[10:23] thought it was cute to take away Columbus Day to smack. Yeah, that's right. I'm proud to be an
[10:37] Italian, you know, and hey, I got a little bit of Hungarian into me too. So for all your chicken
[10:42] papa coshers out there, I feel for you stuffed cabbage and all that. But what I'm telling you is
[10:47] President Trump realized this. He said, Rulli, I want you to write a bill in Congress where it makes
[10:53] it illegal not to celebrate Columbus Day. And that's what we did. And he signed an executive order
[10:58] for that too. So think about that. If you don't celebrate Columbus Day, no federal money, baby.
[11:03] They do this because they're trying to strip away our culture. Andrew Breitbart say you win all war
[11:13] with culture. They don't want us to exist like this. They support countries that destroy women.
[11:20] Think about that. Iran and all these things going in Palestine and all these people that hate our
[11:24] country. The opposition actually supports those people. Enough is enough. President Trump's going to
[11:29] stand by you. The work has just began. If we don't show up and vote, it's going to be bad.
[11:35] And you have to show up and vote because Trumbull and Mahoning County is going to be the whole state.
[11:39] And as Ohio goes, so goes the rest of the country. I want to tell you, I have been so blessed in the
[11:45] last month. I was able to have Brexit with the Pope. And, you know, for those of us out there that have
[11:51] lost people, it's a short life. This is a great country. I'm not perfect. You're not perfect.
[11:58] And Trump's not perfect. But that guy is killing himself for you because we all love you.
[12:03] We're the party of love. We don't care what you believe in. I don't care if you're LBGTQRST.
[12:11] I don't care. I just want you, if you're over 18, I want you to be free and happy in America.
[12:17] We are a big tent. They are not. They actually condone violence. What they said about Charlie
[12:23] Kirk on his anniversary, they should be, he should be held to the fire. They're showing their true colors.
[12:29] A party that supports murder. That is unacceptable. We are the party of normal now. And President
[12:35] Trump is going to deliver this. That is right. God bless you all. I've said enough. I love you
[12:41] with all my heart. Thank you, Youngstown. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage,
[13:08] Republican nominee for governor, Vivek Ramaswamy. Ladies and gentlemen,
[13:23] please welcome to the stage, Senator Bernie Moreno. First of all, happy Columbus Day.
[13:36] Happy Columbus Day. It's so great to say that. You know, I got a reporter outside that asked me,
[13:42] he goes, well, isn't it racist if we don't call it indigenous people day? I said, no, it's just stupid.
[13:47] Just stupid. Look, I, I want to give you a truly heartfelt thank you. Because two years ago,
[13:57] all of you voted in mass and allowed me to become your United States Senator. So thank you.
[14:08] Now, little did you know, and little did I know, that I would be on the Homeland Security Committee
[14:16] and have an opportunity to question the little tyrant named Anthony Fauci. I got in a little trouble
[14:29] for telling him what all of you would want to say. Am I right? Would you, is that what you would want
[14:34] to say to him? You know, what's crazy two years ago on the campaign trail, the number one issue
[14:43] facing this country was a complete invasion at our border. Millions of people coming across our border
[14:51] illegally. The media would say, well, look, Sherrod Brown is for immigration reform. The bill he wanted to
[14:58] pass would have allowed 5,000 illegals to enter this country every day, every day for 17 months in a row.
[15:15] There's been zero illegals enter America. Zero, zero. You see, we didn't need, we didn't need new laws.
[15:32] We needed a new president. And that president is Donald J. Trump. He's the wall.
[15:37] What the media won't report to you is that three times in a row, three times in a row,
[15:49] the Democrats in the United States Senate shut down our government, refused to pay American citizens
[15:57] who showed up to work a paycheck, not for a day or two, for months. Now, they did it not to lower your
[16:06] taxes, not to lower your electricity bills, not to make the country safer and more secure,
[16:12] but to prevent immigration enforcement in our nation. Think about that for a second.
[16:18] They shut down our government so that Republicans would stop enforcing immigration. Instead,
[16:26] we funded ICE and Border Patrol for the rest of the Trump administration. Now, I know all of you enjoy
[16:38] reading the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Is that true? Exactly. Exactly. It makes great cat litter face,
[16:46] though. It's very, very good for that. But what the Cleveland Plain Dealer won't tell you,
[16:51] by the way, is that poverty in America is at an all-time low, historic low for poverty in the United
[16:59] States of America. Do you think they'll give that victory to President Trump? Wages are at the highest
[17:07] level in American history under President Trump. Our border, as I said earlier, is at the most secure
[17:15] in our history of our country. Crime is down to the lowest level in recorded history. Do you think
[17:22] the media is taking notes here? Do you think they're putting the bullet points out? Prescription drugs
[17:28] are down for the first time since 1963. And that date matters because that's the first time Sherrod
[17:40] Brown ran for political office. Now, they're going to fact check me. It was 1974, not 63. Might as well
[17:49] have been. I mean, think about that. This guy, Sherrod Brown, who you fired two years ago, ran for office
[17:58] when Gerald Ford was in the White House. I've never seen anything like this in my life. This guy gets
[18:07] fired by the voters, because let me just be clear, politicians work for the voters, not the other
[18:12] way around. So you fire him two years ago, and now he wants his job back. And he's making all kinds of
[18:20] promises, like he's going to ban insider trading. Guess what? Two weeks ago, the Democrats blocked that bill
[18:27] in the United States Senate. Did the news media report that? Of course not. They also voted to have
[18:32] vote. They voted to prevent the 18 states that don't require voter ID to actually have voter ID,
[18:40] just simple voter ID. Every Democrat voted against that. And I thought it was particularly ironic,
[18:47] because on Monday, I got to fly with the vice president down to Cincinnati, where he got to vote.
[18:52] So think about this for a second. The vice president of the United States of America
[18:57] walks into the Democrat controlled Hamilton County, goes to the Board of Elections. The nice lady who's
[19:05] taking care of him looks right up at him. I was right there. And she says, name, please.
[19:13] James David Vance. May I see your ID? Democrats think that's racist. We have to show our ID for all
[19:23] kinds of things, except for voting in 18 states. But I can assure you this. Democrats aren't going to
[19:32] win this election. Democrats will not win this election. There's just too much at stake. But what
[19:42] all of you have to remember is the way we do lose this election if Republicans stay home. If Republicans
[19:52] stay home, we could have Sherrod Brown back. By the way, something that the media will never,
[20:03] ever, ever, ever, ever report is that I campaigned against Sherrod Brown for two years. I've never
[20:09] met him, never been in the same room with him. He never called to concede. He didn't allow an orderly
[20:15] transfer of the office. He closed 100,000 constituent cases and just said, sorry, I'm gone. Left the offices
[20:24] is a complete disaster. Nobody does that. That's crazy. That's who Sherrod Brown is. And I'll tell
[20:33] you, after being in D.C. for 18 months, you know what I learned? He's uniquely unlikable. It's
[20:38] unbelievable. Like I run into so many people that just don't like the guy. So I'm going to ask you
[20:44] one simple question because the next speaker is my colleague, Senator John Huston. I'm going to ask
[20:52] you one question and I need to make certain that he hears the answer from every single one of you.
[20:58] Are you going to make certain that you permanently, permanently retire Sherrod Brown and vote for John
[21:08] Huston? Let's hear it. Ladies and so this is Monday in the Mahoney Valley, huh? Monday in Youngstown,
[21:23] they said that people wouldn't turn out. Wow. What a great crowd. I feel the enthusiasm from you.
[21:29] I had a chance to talk to a lot of you. Are we ready to win? If you want something in life,
[21:39] you've got to fight for it, don't you? People of Youngstown know that. They know that. Now,
[21:46] we win by getting people out to vote, right? And I know that as an election campaign goes on,
[21:55] that you can get tired. You can get weary. It can be tough to do. And you may say to yourself,
[22:02] Hey folks, just send them a message. We won't be bullied or intimidated, will we?
[22:52] Because I'll tell you this. I know when they, I know like you get tired, you get weary when this
[23:07] all goes on. But my friend, John Kennedy from Louisiana was in town this week and he gave me
[23:14] a good piece of advice and I'll give the advice to you. No matter how tired you get, no matter how much
[23:21] you don't think you have the energy to go out to vote, remember this. If dead people can do it,
[23:27] you can too. Because we have a sense of pride and a sense of humor around here. And we,
[23:40] we know how important we're blessed. We're blessed to be Americans. We're blessed to be Americans.
[23:45] We live in the greatest nation in the world. Amen to that. But I want to tell you, I relate to the
[23:56] Mahoney Valley probably as much as any other place in, in the state of Ohio, because when I was growing
[24:03] at, when I was growing up, the factory that my dad worked at closed. And it was the same factory I
[24:10] worked third shift at the summer before. And, uh, when it closed, my whole family had to leave Ohio.
[24:18] I had two uncles that lost jobs, an aunt that lost a job. And my whole family, my younger brother and
[24:23] sister and mom and dad had to leave Ohio because the unemployment rate was around eight, nine percent
[24:27] and there was no place to go to work. And it broke my heart. And I know what it means when you lose a job
[24:33] and things are tough because my family went through it. And I know a lot of families in the
[24:38] Mahoning Valley went through it too. And I want you to remember something though,
[24:43] Ohio at that time was dying. We were a dying state and young people my age were leaving Ohio
[24:51] and they were leaving the Mahoning Valley. And I'll tell you what, um, the last time we had a
[24:58] Democrat governor of the state of Ohio, when he, when he got voted out, the unemployment rate was nine
[25:03] percent in this state and we were a dying state. We were one of the worst states to do business
[25:10] and jobs were leaving and people were too. But guess what? We elected Republicans. All right.
[25:18] And I was part of that revolution here in Ohio. I was a leader in it. And this is what we did.
[25:31] We reformed our tax code. We made it cut the regulations that made Ohio such a terrible
[25:36] place to do business. We fought, we fought, we fought. And just a couple of months ago, CNBC,
[25:42] the same, the same rating service that once said at that time that Ohio was the 37th worst state in
[25:48] the country to do business rated Ohio number one in the country. We have the most jobs right now we've
[26:07] ever had in the history of our state and the lowest unemployment since they started keeping the statistic
[26:13] in the 1970s, 3.3%. And here's the deal. I know those are numbers, but this is why it matters
[26:27] because the numbers are people. And I don't want what happened to my family to happen to yours.
[26:33] That's why I dedicated my life to restoring hope in this state. That's why I dedicated my life to
[26:38] growing jobs and opportunity in this state because I never want our children and grandchildren to have
[26:43] to leave Ohio for the opportunity to live their version of the American dream. But we had to fight
[26:55] a lot of bad public officials, a lot of bad politicians along the way. And one of those guys was
[27:01] Sherrod Brown. So I asked you a question. He's been in office for over 50 years, over 50 years.
[27:13] Can you name one thing that he's done to make your life better? No. Everywhere I go,
[27:22] I ask that question. No one can come up with a thing. And you look, here's the deal. He doesn't
[27:27] run ads talking about what he did to help you. He tries to hope that you'll forget and attacks me
[27:33] because he's got nothing to show for 50 years in office, does he? Nothing. But I tell you what,
[27:44] even though he didn't do anything for you, I can tell you what he did to you. He raised your taxes.
[27:50] He did that. He opened the borders. He did that. He shipped your jobs to China. He did that. He closed
[27:57] power plants and refineries that made your electric prices and your gas prices go up. He did a lot to
[28:03] you, but he didn't do anything for you to make your lives better. Did he? Nothing. All right. So we
[28:10] got a choice. We got a choice and we got a moment. It's like elections to me are like game day,
[28:18] right? Like a football game. Now, by the way, how in this audience do we have more Browns fans
[28:25] or do we have more Steelers fans? But I can tell you what we have here in the Mahoney valleys. We have
[28:39] some football fans, don't we? Well, I have a little experience doing that because I played in 50,
[28:49] 50 college football games at the University of Dayton and I learned a few things from that
[28:53] experience. You know, I love football because, you know, in football, they want to knock you down
[28:58] and you got to get back up, don't you? It's just like life. You get some tough things going your
[29:02] way and you got to fight for it. Well, elections are like a football game in this sense, is that
[29:09] each team wants to win and they all have a game plan. They'll have a game plan. But then as the game
[29:15] goes along and it's not going exactly how they want it to go, sometimes they take cheap shots,
[29:21] right? Sherry Brown takes cheap shots all the time. And here's the deal. You want to know why
[29:27] they do that? It's because their game plan isn't working. That's why they do it. And I will tell
[29:33] you what, why do they do it though? Because they think they can knock you down. They think it can
[29:38] weaken your resolve. Do you think he can weaken my resolve? No way, baby. Not a chance. I want you
[29:46] to know that no matter how many times he lies or what he says, I'm going to fight for you and we will
[29:51] fight forward and we will win, won't we? And this is, this is a good look. It's a team effort.
[30:03] That's the other part of it. I can't do it on my own. I need your help. I need your help. Do you
[30:08] have my back? Are you going to fight for me? Are you going to help me win? Because I got your back
[30:16] and I'll fight for you and I'll make sure that you win. There we go. Sounds like he's got my back over
[30:40] there. Doesn't it sound like it? But here's the deal, folks. I just have to tell you, um, you have my
[30:47] back in this election. You go out there, you find people, you bring them to vote. You work tirelessly for
[30:52] us over the next few weeks. And I'll tell you what, I will never quit on you. I will fight for
[30:57] you. I will always look out for the Mahoney Valley. I will fight for your jobs. I will fight for your
[31:01] children. I will fight for your future and I will never give up. Let's go win this thing. Got it. Let's
[31:07] go get it done. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage, John Gruden. Thank you very much.
[32:47] It is an honor to be here. Thank all of you for coming out. Let's hear some noise here. Thank you.
[32:54] I'll be brief. I just want to say my dad was an orphan, grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, Orange High School.
[33:06] He met my mom at Heidelberg College here in Ohio. I was born in Sandusky and I went to the University
[33:13] of Dayton. And that's where I met Senator John Husted. Let's hear it for Husted, baby. You know,
[33:28] it's just great to be on a team. That's the one thing I miss about coaching more than anything is
[33:34] being on a team. And if you would just take 20 seconds here tonight and welcome your teammates.
[33:39] Shake a hand here tonight. Welcome each other here to Youngstown, Ohio. You know, my whole life,
[33:54] I've studied teams, how to have a great team. And I was fortunate to be on a couple great teams.
[34:01] And I learned this at Dayton. I learned this in Ohio, by the way,
[34:05] how about the Youngstown Penguins, baby? But I learned in Ohio to have a great team. You got
[34:16] to have great players. And there's a lot of great players in Ohio. Yes. There's a great working force
[34:23] in Ohio. And that's you. Yes. But you also got to have great leadership. You got to have great coaches.
[34:31] It's the players and the coaches working together relentlessly to form a championship team. Yes.
[34:43] And I just want to say here tonight, I am honored to be a part of getting to know John Husted and
[34:51] sharing this introduction tonight. We have a chance to go and vote and make our difference at the polls.
[34:59] Will you be there for us? Let's go to maximize our true potential. We got to believe in our leadership
[35:09] and we got to do it together. And if we can get this group elected, great days are ahead. And I would
[35:17] like to leave. I have to make one final introduction. And with distinct honor, I am here to do that.
[35:24] I've met a lot of people in my days. I've never met a man that has given more effort, relentless effort.
[35:34] A guy that has more enthusiasm and passion for the United States than this guy. A guy that is committed
[35:43] to executing no matter how intense the prep prep pressure is. And most importantly,
[35:51] a guy that will compete, a guy that will roll his fist up and fight for all of us. Ladies and
[35:56] gentlemen, please welcome the 45th and 47th president of the United States Donald J. Trump.
[36:20] I want to thank you very much, John. And hello to Youngstown, a special place.
[36:24] We won this thing by so much in Youngstown, all over the state. We had the highest vote in the
[36:31] history of Ohio politics. And last week I did a rally at a place called Dayton. Have you ever heard
[36:42] of Dayton? And I said to John Gruden, who's a big celebrity, great coach, great everything. He was a
[36:51] great player in college. I said, John, what are you doing here? I thought he was going to say,
[36:56] I'm here for you, sir. I have such respect for you. But he didn't say that. He said,
[37:00] I'm here for my teammate. I said, who's your teammate? He said, it's John Eustead. I said,
[37:07] what did you do? You played? What did you do? He said, no, no, he was on my football team.
[37:13] I said, was he any good? Yeah, he was the best player on the team.
[37:17] Oh, no, you know, I know. He's like, he's a guy. He's one of the most respected men in Washington
[37:32] already, already. And he hasn't been there that long. He put in there temp and he, I said, you got to
[37:38] stay. You got to stay. But one of the most respected men. But I said to John Gruden, I said,
[37:43] what do you mean he was a good player? He never talks about it because that's the way he is.
[37:47] He's unlike you, sir.
[37:52] Because if I had his football record, they would have thought I was Jimmy Brown or somebody.
[37:57] I was that I'm the greatest player. No, he was like a safety. And he had a record number of
[38:05] interception 17. He was an all American football player. I didn't know that about John. And today,
[38:11] I watched him. I explained that a week ago. By the way, his poll numbers have gone through the
[38:17] roof since I did. Ohio tends to like football. But no, he was an all American football player.
[38:23] And when John Gruden said he was the best player in the team, and I think they were like a championship
[38:27] team, a great team. But I just watched him in the plane coming in ranting and raving. He's like,
[38:34] become a different man now that we find out he was a great athlete. And, you know, I have to say,
[38:40] so I was over. I called him up last week and he was talking. I'm standing right over here,
[38:44] as I do with candidates, et cetera, because I'm making a lot of stops. But this is, I think,
[38:49] about the only one I've made, too. That means I like Ohio. We have to get Vivek and we have to get
[38:55] John. Better get them in. And I think they will. I think they're going to be in good shape. But I'm
[39:00] standing over here. And I don't do this with men very often. I started examining his body
[39:06] because I didn't know he was a great athlete. And I looked and I watched up and down. I looked
[39:12] at his ass and I looked at the hole. And then I looked at his hands. Look at his hands. He's got
[39:18] these, like, claws. And I got it. You are a great athlete. I didn't know that because he doesn't
[39:25] talk about that. Congratulations. Now they finally know. That was very good. And it was John Gruden that
[39:32] told me. We would have never known. And you made a great speech. He's a fantastic man. He's a
[39:40] very respected guy. And I want to just wish everybody a very happy Columbus Day. I was very
[39:46] much involved. They took that name away from you. And we have Columbus, Ohio and everything else.
[39:59] But they took the name away from our country. They took the way from really away from Italian
[40:06] Americans. And we said, we're not going to let that stand. And I said, we're going to win this thing
[40:10] because we did great the first time. We did better the second time. But we got rigged. It was a rigged
[40:15] election. And I said, because of how well we did, I said, we got to do it again. And that's bigger than
[40:20] any of them. What we're doing is amazing. What we've done with this country, 21 trillion dollars
[40:25] is being invested. In history, there's never been anything like it for any country. China,
[40:30] no country has been closed. But but the radical left maniacs, they took the name Columbus,
[40:42] Christopher Columbus away. And they were their disgrace. And we have to win because we have to keep
[40:49] winning because they'll do it again. They'll do it again. Sherrod Brown's daughter voted to rip down
[40:54] the 22 foot statue of Christopher Columbus right in the heart of the city. You know that his daughter
[41:04] did that. I didn't know until I came. I'm reading some stuff. I said, what's with the daughter? The
[41:09] daughter ripped it down. And he was totally in favor. Sherrod Brown is the candidate of the Marxists,
[41:15] the communists, the anti-American radicals who want to tear down America's heritage. And you threw
[41:21] him out because he did so badly on inflation, the border. He was here with the worst border we've
[41:26] ever had. The economy, the economy was terrible and everything else. He was here during a very dark
[41:32] period for our country. And he lost to a guy named Bernie Marino, who has been fantastic. And Bernie
[41:53] and I, I think I helped Bernie. I don't know, but I think I did. But I'll tell you what,
[41:57] we endorsed Bernie. And we endorsed with the same pervert, John Husted, because he is a fantastic man
[42:05] and he's going to win. And he's really the candidate of proud patriots who love our country and our
[42:15] history. They love and honor our history. And part of that history really is having Christopher Columbus
[42:22] as an American hero. And you have a particular congressman that really worked with me. Where is
[42:26] my congressman? There he is. Where is he? This guy. Good speech. Good speech. We worked hard together,
[42:37] right? He happens to be of Italian heritage, right? Slightly. Is it 100 percent or only 95 percent?
[42:49] About 95. 22 days from now, Ohio is going to defeat Jared Brown and elect John Husted to the United
[42:56] States side. And we're going to send my very good friend. You know, I ran against him and he was not
[43:06] easy. He's a very smart guy and he's a very good guy. And he loves, he loves this state. But he's a
[43:13] friend of mine. Vivek Ramaswamy to the governor's mansion. Great guy. He's great. He's got a lot of
[43:23] great plans, like cutting taxes all over the place. You'll be very happy. You're going to be amazed at how
[43:29] good he is, how smart he is. And we're going to elect strong Republican majorities in the House and the
[43:35] Senate up and down the line. And just look at what happened really just recently. Very, a new chart came
[43:41] out today about how well your two candidates are doing. Take a look. So those two lines are what
[43:58] happened since our last rally. That's a hell of a difference. I wonder if they'll remember when they
[44:04] went in a landslide. Will they say Trump helped or will they say we did it without him? We did it with
[44:10] some same way. No, those charts are beautiful, right, Bernie? Look at that, huh? I'll tell you.
[44:20] And Bernie actually, you know, Bernie's a little jealous because he actually took off too. But it
[44:24] was the day before the election. We made it just in time. Right, Bernie? And Bernie's been a great
[44:29] senator. Appreciate it. Been my friend and a great senator. So what happens is every time I run,
[44:38] we do great. We have a tremendous turnout, 48, 49 percent more than what I don't run. So I'm asking
[44:45] everybody to pretend, just pretend that I'm on the ballot. Because in a way I am on the ballot,
[44:51] because they will try and destroy everything we've done. And the country has never done.
[44:56] I had to take a little bit of a veer toward the Islamic Republic of Iran because we could not let
[45:04] them have a nuclear weapon. I'm sorry. And we did stop over in Venezuela in one of the greatest military
[45:19] attacks in history. And we paid for the cost of that war about 35 times over. And we're not finished yet,
[45:34] but it's been great. We've had a great relationship with Venezuela. Tremendous,
[45:39] the oil coming out of Venezuela. We, you remember the expression, drill, baby, drill. I didn't expect
[45:45] I'd be saying it also in Venezuela, but that's what we're doing. And then we did a little stop over in Iran
[45:56] and their whole country is, let's put it this way, they're never going to have a nuclear weapon.
[46:02] And it's going to end very soon. And as soon as it ends, your gasoline comes down. But remember,
[46:08] your prices, your gas prices are lower than when Biden was president. And he didn't do anything
[46:13] about Iran, the Islamic Republic of Iran didn't do anything. You cannot let the number one state
[46:22] sponsor of terror have a nuclear weapon. And it was my honor. And well, beyond that,
[46:31] it will end very soon. And as soon as it does, your other prices have all come down because we
[46:36] inherited the worst inflation in history from Biden's Sleepy Joe. We inherited and they're all
[46:42] coming down. But oil is always the big one. It's the big player. And oil is going to be dropping like
[46:48] a rock. You know, I was in Iowa and making the speech just the day before. I said to my guys,
[46:54] I got them all in a room, all my cabinet. I said, we have no choice. We have to do this. It should
[46:59] have been done by other presidents for many years, but they didn't do it. Obama paid billions and
[47:05] billions of dollars. He thought he could buy them. That didn't work out. Biden was afraid. Everybody,
[47:11] I don't want to go into all the names. They were all many presidents should have done what we did.
[47:15] It would have been there would have been easier, but it was pretty easy for us because they right now,
[47:20] they have no Navy. They have no Air Force. They have no anti aircraft. They have the worst inflation
[47:28] of any country anywhere in the world. They have no money. They want to make a deal. They don't know
[47:34] how to. They don't know how to. And I'll be honest with Russia and Ukraine. They want to make a deal
[47:41] too. They don't know how to. The hatred is very great between the two leaders, but we're going to get
[47:46] that deal done too. Last last month, they lost 32,000 people, mostly soldiers, young, beautiful soldiers
[47:54] lost. It's ridiculous, that war. So I think they're going to get it done. Finally, I settled eight
[47:59] wars. I thought this would be one of the easier ones, but it's not because the hatred, you know,
[48:04] when the hatred between leaders is that heavy and that hot, it's a little bit tougher, but we're going
[48:09] to get it done. Early voting in Ohio is underway now. It goes through Sunday, November 1st. So get out
[48:16] and vote. And if you have to, you do it November 3rd. I don't care how you do it. We have to do it.
[48:25] So the last time that Jared Brown and the radical Democrats had power, they gave us the worst
[48:33] inflation in American history, the highest energy prices in American history, by the way, much higher
[48:40] than it is now. And we were artificially high. That's going to drop like a rock. The worst trade
[48:46] deficit in American history. They allowed 25 million people to pour across our borders from
[48:51] all over the world. They came from prisons. They were drug dealers. They were rapists. They were
[49:00] murderers. 11,888 murderers, half of whom committed more than one murder. And they poured in here totally
[49:11] unchecked, totally unvetted. And if they win the midterms, they will do the exact same thing again.
[49:16] They're already talking about Sherrod Brown said two days ago, he wants to see open borders.
[49:22] He wants to see men playing in women's sports. He wants to see the trans gender mutilization of
[49:31] your children. And you can't have it. You know, it's one vote, but that one vote can steer Congress
[49:41] into a direction that you're not going to be happy with. And it's not Ohio values. And we have to do the
[49:47] same thing that Bernie did. And John is really up to it. I can't tell you, he went there and a lot
[49:53] of guys go there and a lot of them aren't that respected. I will tell you, this is a man that's
[49:59] totally respected. A lot of when you have our great senator, where are you? When you have Barrasso,
[50:05] look at that, one of the deans, when he comes out, senators don't do that. You got Barrasso coming out.
[50:13] You got one of the big, one of the big shots coming out. And John, you don't do that too often,
[50:18] do you? You do that for special people. It's very nice to have you too, John. John Barrasso.
[50:24] Senator. And if Democrats get the chance, they will immediately reopen our borders and once again,
[50:32] flood Ohio cities and towns with migrants from the most corrupt and dangerous places on the planet.
[50:39] Just look at what's happening in the once great state of Minnesota. What a mess they have done.
[50:47] Somalia, wonderful, wonderful. And that Elon, somebody who was asked me, I don't know what
[50:52] they're doing with it, but I can tell you this, she's a disaster. She comes in from a country without
[50:58] laws, without police, without military, without all they do is shoot each other. And she comes into our
[51:04] country and she says, I have a constitutional right. She's got a constitutional right. She's telling us
[51:10] about the constitution and she comes from one of the worst countries anywhere on the planet.
[51:17] Last week, savage Somali gang members shot two people in the high school parking lot
[51:22] in the middle of a football game. Just days later, a few miles away, the FBI arrested a radicalized
[51:29] Somalian who was planning to carry out an ISIS style terrorist attack at the Mall of America,
[51:35] aiming to kill as many as possible in his words. This is not what we want in this country. We don't
[51:43] want this in us. What they have done, what they have done for Minnesota and members of the Somalian
[51:58] community have looted tens of billions of dollars from Minnesota welfare programs here. People,
[52:04] they came over here. They had nothing. They came from a government that doesn't exist.
[52:10] They come from a part of the world that only knows how to kill each other. All they do is kill each
[52:14] other in the streets. Then they come into the United States of America and they tell us how to run our
[52:21] country. We're not going to stand for it. They drive up taxes. They drive up health care costs,
[52:27] insurance costs, child care costs, and they cheat on everything. It's a disaster. And we're not going to
[52:32] stand for it. We're not going to stand. That's right. You have to vote for Michelle Tafoya,
[52:41] who's a very respected person while we're at it. I should say it. She's very respected.
[52:49] It's hard to win because they cheat on their elections too. You know, I thought I won Minnesota
[52:53] three times. I was sure I won it the last time. They got me by a whisker. There was a rather large
[53:01] drop of votes about three o'clock in the morning. You remember? They found them. I don't know where
[53:07] they found them, but that state hasn't been won since 1952. They cheat like hell. Aside from
[53:16] everything else, they cheat on the elections. They have a governor who's grossly corrupt and incompetent.
[53:22] To be a Democrat like Sharon Brown, you have to believe that Christopher Columbus should not be in
[53:28] Columbus, Ohio. Paid protest. He's a paid protest. So they're all paid. They get paid by the lefties
[54:07] in order to destroy our country. They're scum. But he's going back home to mom. He's going back home
[54:19] to mom. Look at him. Look at him. Terrible. Don't we love law enforcement? Oh, he's got to go on a diet.
[54:30] He's a fat guy. Wow. Got to go on a diet fast. We all do. You know, they're paid protesters.
[54:54] That's a very low-class protester. What he doesn't know is that his mother and father voted for me.
[55:01] And they're angry as hell. That's our boy. What's he doing there? Oh, he looks so terrible.
[55:15] And he's going to get home and he's going to get smacked. To be a Democrat like Sharon Brown,
[55:23] you have to believe that Christopher Columbus should not be in Columbus, Ohio. But think that the
[55:29] Midwest should be turned into Mogadishu. That's what he wants. An interesting place. You got to
[55:36] check it out sometime. These people are crazy. What they want to do to our country. You look at
[55:42] the guy running in Michigan. He's a jihadist. He's a jihadist. And you know what bothers me?
[55:50] The even the mainstream, but the media gives him so much publicity. They give him so much publicity.
[55:57] It's, you know, really terrible. Running against a very good candidate, very, very strong, very good.
[56:04] Mike Rogers, very good candidate. But this this guy's a jihadist.
[56:12] The Republican Party, we believe that Somalia bandits, third world gangs and jihadist sympathizers
[56:20] do not belong in Ohio. They don't belong in America. Gotta get them the hell out of here.
[56:25] Well, you have a little town, beautiful little town in Ohio where they dropped about 35,000
[56:45] Haitians. And I believe it's called Springfield, Ohio. Well, they're being taken out and they're
[56:54] almost going to be gone. And we're giving their town back Springfield, a quaint little village of no
[57:03] crime, no problems, a beautiful place to live. 32,000 people, never a problem. Beautiful little idyllic,
[57:13] place. All of a sudden they dropped 35,000 people in from Haiti. And it didn't work out too well.
[57:21] Remember during the debate, I said some of the things they were doing. I was right.
[57:25] Turned out I was right. I won't get into the exact. Remember that? I was right. And they're getting
[57:34] their town back. They're getting their town back. That was done by Sleepy Joe Biden and his group.
[57:40] Sleepy Joe, Crooked Joe, one of the worst administrations, the worst. Look, there's never
[57:44] been an administration. And they want to do it again. Sherrod Brown wants to have open borders.
[57:52] He wants to have men playing in women's sports. John Gruden is a great coach, had a lot of
[58:02] championship teams. John, did you ever have a woman that you were desperate to have on one of your
[58:07] championship teams? Was there now? I don't know. Was it even close? How about every once in a while,
[58:16] I'll see a kicker where they have a kicker who's a female because they put them on. Yeah,
[58:21] we like Sophie Cunningham. Let's put her on. I like Sophie Cunningham. Yeah, you'd have a lot of men
[58:30] wanting to go and watch her. She's beautiful. You're not allowed to say that anymore. However,
[58:35] as a politician, please, please, let me take it back. Anytime a politician says a woman is beautiful,
[58:42] that's generally the end of his political career in the modern day politic world. But Sophie is a
[58:47] beautiful young woman. You probably wouldn't mind her on the team, not to help you with points,
[58:53] but to help you with attendance. The attendance would be quite good. But if they win Sherrod Brown
[59:00] and Amy Acton, she is horrible. She's a radical left lunatic. We'll tax you to the day you die,
[59:12] force you to work longer hours for less pay. They're going to put the inheritance tax. You know,
[59:17] right now, you don't have an inheritance tax. I got rid of your inheritance for farmers and small
[59:21] businesses. And the Democrats want that back on. They want all the other taxes back on. They want it
[59:31] back on fast. The inheritance tax where you leave your farm or you leave your small business to your
[59:37] children and it gets valued by the federal government. You have to go out, pay a big tax. And
[59:42] many of these children go out. They want to keep their farm and they can't. They lose it to the banks
[59:47] or whatever it might be. And many of them go out and commit suicide. You know that. And we're not doing
[59:54] that anymore. We're not doing so we don't have any inheritance tax or estate tax on your farm or your small
[1:00:00] business. So if you want to leave it to your child, if you love your child, you can leave it.
[1:00:07] If you don't like your child, don't listen to me because it doesn't matter what I just said.
[1:00:12] Does anybody in here not love their child? Is there somebody raise a hand? Is there anybody in here
[1:00:20] that would like not to leave their estate to their children? Because if you don't want to do that,
[1:00:26] then what I just said doesn't matter much. But if you do, your children will get your estate,
[1:00:33] get your farm, your small business. They won't have to worry about the taxpayer coming in and
[1:00:38] the bank coming in and loaning them the money and taking the farm and watching them suffer and ruin
[1:00:45] their lives. They ruin their lives. And the Democrats want to put that back on. These people are crazy.
[1:00:50] They're mean. They're mean. They'll raise your taxes so that foreign thieves can pillage the state budget
[1:00:58] and drive around in, like in, in, I call it Somalia land, not Somaliland, because actually it's a totally
[1:01:06] different country. Some people like Somaliland. It has nothing to do. You know, that has nothing to
[1:01:11] do. I said, you've got to be kidding. I think they should change your name immediately. But they like to,
[1:01:16] they think they're in Somalia where they don't have pants to wear. They come here, they go on BMWs and
[1:01:23] Mercedes. And they like that. Somalia, they love Mercedes. They come in, they have nothing.
[1:01:31] And they're the number one buyers of Mercedes Benz and BMWs in the state of Minnesota. The whole thing
[1:01:37] is crazy. It's crazy. Low IQ people. If you want to stop Ohio from being plundered, ransacked,
[1:01:45] and destroyed like Minnesota is being destroyed, we're going to stop it. Just like we did with
[1:01:51] Springfield. We're going to stop it. We're not going to let it out. But if you want to stop it
[1:01:59] before it begins, vote for John Eustadt and vote for Vivek Ramaswamy. You've got to vote for that.
[1:02:10] Less than two years ago, the radical left Democrats handed us the dark age. It was a dark age.
[1:02:18] We were laughed at all over the world. They thought we were stupid people. But now we quickly turned it
[1:02:24] into the golden age of America. There's never been a time like this. There's never been a time. We've never
[1:02:30] had a time. Remember I inherited the highest prices and the worst inflation. And the first day I came
[1:02:37] into office, it was January 20th. The next day I had a news conference and they were screaming at me
[1:02:45] about affordability. I said, what's affordable? What are you talking about? Affordability? The prices
[1:02:52] are too high. I said, I just, I've only been president for one day. And they brought up eggs
[1:02:57] because eggs were five times higher than they were in my administration. And I said, well,
[1:03:03] what's the problem? Eggs are too high. I said, this is my second day. And it wasn't a full 24 hours. It
[1:03:11] was like a lot less than that. And they started the fake news. Look at all of them back. That's a lot
[1:03:16] of fake news. And hence the word affordability. Every time I'll go out, you know, we're bringing prices
[1:03:27] way down. But every time I go out, the fake news goes affordability, meaning like I'm causing high
[1:03:34] price. No, I'm bringing the high prices down that they cause. And if a guy like Sherrod Brown gets
[1:03:40] in, he was there. He was one of the guys that destroyed, almost destroyed our nation.
[1:03:45] She was, she was very quiet. What flag was that? Was that the Palestinian flag?
[1:04:16] You know, the one I like the best, I shouldn't say this, should I? The one I like the best is gays
[1:04:23] for Palestine. Gays for Palestine. You know what they do? If you happen to be gay,
[1:04:32] they throw you off the top of a building. That's the one I like the best. Gays for Palestine. They
[1:04:38] throw you, they bring you to the top of the tallest building they have, which isn't too tall, by the
[1:04:42] way. It doesn't have to be. They push you off the top of the building. And yet I see all the time gays
[1:04:48] for Palestine. How about women for Palestine? They treat them almost as badly. But our nation
[1:04:56] is doing better now than ever before. But the fake news media refuses to talk about our record
[1:05:02] setting numbers tonight. So if you don't mind, I will tell you about them myself. Do you mind,
[1:05:08] Mr. Wall? By the way, I have to, I love these guys. They've been to like 700 rallies or some crazy.
[1:05:18] These are the front row Joes and Mr. Wall. These are the front rows,
[1:05:27] and they're successful. I don't know what the hell they do, but they're successful people. They
[1:05:30] travel all over the planet. They travel all over the country. And if I go to London, they're there,
[1:05:35] too. I don't know where the hell they get all this money. And then you have Mr. Wall. I'm going to,
[1:05:39] someday I'm going to buy that suit and wear it. I think in my last speech, I'll wear that suit.
[1:05:46] Is Mr. Wall considered a front row Joe? I think he should be. Right. And he's a very successful guy.
[1:05:53] He's a very successful guy. I said, what do you do? I almost fell off my chair or whatever.
[1:05:57] But he's a smart guy. He knows that what we're talking about is just fact. You know, communism
[1:06:03] has never worked for thousands of years under different names. It's never worked, never worked.
[1:06:09] Socialism has never worked. None of that stuff has ever worked. The thing that works is what we do.
[1:06:14] We have the most successful country we've ever had, but they don't want to talk. So I'm going to say,
[1:06:19] it was just announced that under Republican leadership, that's me, income for hardworking
[1:06:26] Americans has soared, think of it, the income for a person, average income for a person has soared
[1:06:33] to the highest level ever recorded by far. And more Americans, I mean, these are things,
[1:06:45] you know, I could go into the deep, but these are things you can't beat. Listen,
[1:06:48] more Americans are working today than at any time in the history of our country and for higher wages
[1:06:55] than ever before. And that's despite the fact, again, we want to make America great,
[1:07:05] that I unfortunately got rid of much more than a million federal workers who hated me for doing it,
[1:07:12] hated me. But now they love me because they've all gotten jobs in the private sector for much more
[1:07:20] money. And they like the job much more than their federal job. Think of it. Now they like me. It
[1:07:25] took me a little while to figure it out. But now they like me. We had 10 workers to do one job. You'd
[1:07:31] have one job. We had 10 workers sitting around to do. So we fired. I fired whatever we did. I don't
[1:07:37] know what you call it. Like the apprentice. You're fired. Get the hell out of here. No,
[1:07:41] I didn't do it that way. Somebody asked, if you didn't do, we talked about this with Mark Burnett,
[1:07:48] that gets this question. So the apprentice was one of the top shows ever, but it was one of the top
[1:07:54] shows. It went 14 seasons over 12 years. In other words, a couple of seasons, it was so good they ran
[1:08:01] it twice, which is very unusual. But it was one. And there's a question out there. If I didn't do
[1:08:08] the apprentice, I didn't do it. Now they picked me because I was famous and I was successful. Right.
[1:08:13] But if I didn't do the apprentice, would I be president now? I think yes. If I didn't do,
[1:08:23] what do you think? If I didn't do the, that question is asked because they blame the people
[1:08:27] that put on the show. They said, you're the one that gave him. No, it was a tremendous success. But
[1:08:34] that question is often asked. If he didn't do the apprentice, do you think? I think so. You know,
[1:08:38] I don't know. They say they got to know me because you're getting a lot of airtime. So maybe they're
[1:08:42] like to me. Who the hell knows? All I know is we do a good job. The poverty rate has just reached
[1:08:48] its lowest level in the history of our country. Look good. African American poverty, Hispanic American
[1:09:03] poverty and Native American poverty rates are at their all time lowest levels ever recorded ever.
[1:09:11] And the stock market just did it again today. We have 84 all time record highs since
[1:09:22] the election was just a little more than a year and a half ago. After years of steel mills and
[1:09:29] factories closing across Ohio, our steel industry is roaring back to life. Manufacturing is booming
[1:09:36] and American exports have soared to the highest level in history. Remember when Barack Hussein Obama
[1:09:44] said we're never going to manufacture again. We just set a record for exports. In other words,
[1:09:50] we make a product by and we it's a big record too. And you haven't seen anything with these factories.
[1:09:55] We're building more factories and plants right now than at any time in our history. The pharmaceutical
[1:10:03] business is building hundreds of billions. Eli Lilly, Merck, Pfizer, hundreds of millions of plants
[1:10:10] in these in the country. The auto industry, the I have to say our new word, what's the word?
[1:10:18] Intelligence. It's not artificial anymore. It's super intelligence, super intelligence. And everybody
[1:10:25] likes it. Elon likes it. Everybody likes it. Everybody likes it. No, it's a much more accurate word
[1:10:31] because it's not artificial. It's real intelligence. It may be too strong, actually,
[1:10:37] but it's super intelligence. That's what it is. It's a much better word, much more descriptive word. But
[1:10:43] less than two years ago, and every leader said this, but the king of Saudi Arabia said to me,
[1:10:51] a short time ago, sir, your country was dead. And now you have the hottest country anywhere in the
[1:10:57] world. We're the hottest country anywhere in the world. I mean, think of that Venezuela in 48 minutes.
[1:11:10] It was over 48 minutes. Nobody talks about that. They never like to talk about that.
[1:11:15] You know, you know, we were in Vietnam for 21 years. We're in Afghanistan for seven or eight years.
[1:11:23] We're every one of these was eight years, nine years, 10 years, 12 years, 21 years,
[1:11:31] thousands of people killed each time. So we've been in Iran, very powerful country where they used to be,
[1:11:39] they're not powerful anymore, but a very powerful country. And they should have been done long ago by
[1:11:47] other presidents. Why did it have to be me? But it had to be me because they were two weeks away from
[1:11:54] having a nuclear weapon. We knocked that out, those beautiful B-2 bombers. They came from Missouri.
[1:12:01] But, but we are now, think of it. We are now, despite four years, we, if, if Kamala got elected,
[1:12:13] this country would be dead. Instead of having, instead of having 21 trillion dollars coming in,
[1:12:23] we would have had trillions of dollars going out. Welfare would have doubled, quadrupled as it,
[1:12:28] I'll tell you what, if you take a look at some of their welfare numbers, we were headed down
[1:12:34] a short road to ruin it. This country would have been in ruins if they got in. And now these people
[1:12:40] are even worse. For instance, what happened to the 12 year, we're all supposed to be dead,
[1:12:46] right? In 12 years, global warming. The planet is warming at a level that they've never seen before.
[1:12:52] It's warming, it's getting so warm out. It's a quarter of a degree more than it was 10 years ago.
[1:12:59] I don't think we'll be able to take it. In 12 years, according to AOC, and remember AOC plus three,
[1:13:06] AOC plus three, who never studied the environment, doesn't know anything about it. Remember she went
[1:13:12] out and she said, in 12 years, we will all be dead from global warming. Well, that didn't happen. In fact,
[1:13:20] we had a lot of cooling and the ice is now bigger than it's ever been for some reason. It grew a lot.
[1:13:26] So the word warming didn't work. So they didn't want to use the word cooling. So what did they do?
[1:13:31] Climate change. We have a new term. Climate change. Climate change is going to destroy the planet.
[1:13:39] Now climate change means you could get warm, could get cold, could rain, could snow, could anything can
[1:13:44] happen. Climate change. These people are crazy. But it's 12 years. And to the best of my knowledge,
[1:13:52] I see a packed house. I don't see. Has anybody passed away? Has anybody passed away from global
[1:14:01] warming? No, it's a con job. Just like Russia, Russia, Russia was a con job. All a con job.
[1:14:07] We caught them all. They're a bunch of crooked guys. They're bad people. That was a dangerous
[1:14:12] position to put our country into. It's lucky that I understood it and Putin understood it. No,
[1:14:18] it was a con job. It was all a big Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine. Remember that? The fake phone call.
[1:14:24] They said, oh, he said this. He said that. It turned out to be just the opposite. Very nice,
[1:14:28] normal call. Remember, they reported a totally different call that was made. Fortunately, we had
[1:14:36] essentially the call was taped. And they said, oh, my God, we got problems. They said, oh, let's
[1:14:42] impeach him anyway. We were down the line. Now, they're all a bunch of terrible people for our country.
[1:14:48] In four long years of crooked Joe Biden and the Biden administration, they got less than one
[1:14:55] trillion dollars of new investment in the United States. Think of that. So in four years,
[1:15:00] half. They got about a half a trillion, but less than one trillion. We got 21 trillion in 15 months.
[1:15:08] Think of that. 21 trillion. And most of that's going to building new plants. Where do you see the numbers
[1:15:17] that come out? You know, they're under construction. The construction worker numbers are through the
[1:15:22] roof because they're building these massive plants all over the country. More plants than we've ever
[1:15:28] even dreamt of. More than anybody's ever heard of. Kimberly Clark is investing 800 million dollars to
[1:15:34] build its first new U.S. plant in 37 years right here in Warren, Ohio. The big steel company,
[1:15:48] Valaric is investing 48 million dollars to expand operations right here in a place called Youngstown.
[1:15:55] Have you heard of it? And two months ago, my administration announced a 500 million dollar
[1:16:04] investment to modernize the Cleveland Cliffs in Middletown. And the Middletown works. Did
[1:16:11] anyone ever hear of the Middletown works? The steel mill. Thank you, Bernie. That was a Bernie deal.
[1:16:20] Actually, all three of you worked in that company. Thank you. Today, I'm also pleased to announce that
[1:16:26] the Department of War has officially selected the new home of the U.S. submarine component repair
[1:16:33] center. A big deal that everybody wanted. And it's going to be right here in Ohio, in Cleveland,
[1:16:39] Ohio. Big deal. These guys, that guy, this massive 46,000 square foot facility will manufacture,
[1:17:02] repair and maintain key parts for virtually all new and existing submarines. By the way, we make
[1:17:08] the greatest submarines anywhere in the world. We're 15 years ahead of number two, which is Russia.
[1:17:15] But they are number two. But we are way ahead. Nobody makes submarines. It's the most powerful weapon
[1:17:20] in the world, actually, by far. And you have to really thank Senator John Husted for this more than
[1:17:26] probably anybody else. John fought for Ohio. He fought for — stand up, John. That was your deal.
[1:17:36] Stand up, John. John fought for Ohio. Look at that jawline. I'm telling you, I never saw that. I never
[1:17:52] studied him. Now I study him. I say, why was he such a good football? Look at the jawline. He's tough as hell.
[1:17:58] But Senator Husted and Senator Marino also brought to my attention that steam-powered heat utility
[1:18:06] that provides heating for 24 major buildings in Youngstown is in danger of shutting down
[1:18:12] as we enter the cold season. So tonight, I'm pleased to announce that I am directing the
[1:18:17] Department of Energy and Commerce to work with your senators to find a quick solution and make
[1:18:23] sure it doesn't shut down. It's going to stay open. And you're going to stay nice and warm during the
[1:18:28] winter. Okay? And our country is doing so well under Republican leadership. This is really,
[1:18:52] I think, one of the most important things for you to listen to. That only I can make this promise to
[1:18:58] you. If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate, I am going to give all adult citizens
[1:19:06] in the United States $5,000 each. And only Republicans can do that because Democrats are unable to do it,
[1:19:30] because we're taking in, as Republicans, massive amounts of money through tariffs and our record-setting
[1:19:37] economic success that you've been seeing and reading about. But the Democrat policies won't
[1:19:43] allow this to happen. In fact, the opposite. If the Democrats win, you will have an economic
[1:19:49] depression, the equivalent of 1929. Our country is going to go to hell. Your 401 s are going to be
[1:19:56] worthless. And I mean it, too. They are crazy. If the Republicans win, you will each have $5,000 in
[1:20:04] your pocket and economic success for our country, the likes of which we have never seen before.
[1:20:11] Thank you. I would love to do that. We looked at polls. Oh, I love those polls. And remember,
[1:20:50] just recently, you know, they're saying, oh, well, he won't be able to. I do it. I always do it.
[1:20:54] Remember, just recently, I gave all members of the United States military $1,776. Remember dollars?
[1:21:02] Just less, much less than a year ago. Everyone said it couldn't be done. It was 1775. I asked the
[1:21:13] generals. I said, generals, we just had a big success in Venezuela. We just had a big success,
[1:21:19] a big success in Iran. Look, we wiped out the whole. They have no ships. Their ships are gone. Their
[1:21:26] air force is gone. You know, they had 159 ships. They're right now resting beautifully at the bottom
[1:21:31] of the sea, every single one of them. And then the fake news will say Iran is doing splendidly.
[1:21:41] They got no ships. They got no nothing. They got no leaders even. That's the problem. We might have
[1:21:45] gone too far with the leaders because we don't know who the hell we're dealing with anymore.
[1:21:49] Nobody wants to be the president of Iran. They have roll calls. Who would like to be the president?
[1:21:56] Nobody. I don't want it. We're having a hard time figuring out who the hell to deal with,
[1:22:01] to be honest with you. I think we went too far, Bernie. Could have stopped at level one,
[1:22:07] level two and level two and a half was probably gone too far. But the Trump dividend, so they all said
[1:22:13] that you'll never be able to do the 1775. And I looked at the number and I thought there was
[1:22:22] something weird with the number. I said, what is it? Why does it remind me of 70? They put a number
[1:22:28] so we can do 1775 dollars. I said, you know, General, if we can find one dollar more,
[1:22:37] it'll be 1776. You fool. Why didn't you think of this? Why didn't you think of this, General?
[1:22:48] But they said, you'll never be able to do it. And Vivek, we got it done. Right? We got it done.
[1:22:53] Senator, we got it done. Everybody. John. So the Trump dividend. Okay. So, you know, they like to say,
[1:23:02] well, you won't do it. Well, we do do it. We get everything. They can't do it because you're
[1:23:06] going to lose your shirt if they got in. They'll do everything bad, including raising your taxes.
[1:23:10] But the Trump dividend is approximately one trillion dollars. That's what the cost is. But we
[1:23:16] have a record setting 21 trillion dollars that's being invested in the country right now in just a
[1:23:21] short period of time. Not even, I mean, now it's much more than that. That was only as of 15 months.
[1:23:27] But the only caveat on the Trump dividend is that you have to spend the money in the United States
[1:23:33] of America, if you don't mind. It's recircled. It's recycled. It's recircled and recycled, actually.
[1:23:46] But the choice is really very simple in this election. You can vote for the radical left,
[1:23:52] Democrat, communist to loot your wealth, raise your taxes by five trillion dollars,
[1:23:58] annihilate your borders. When I came in, what borders? 25 million illegal aliens were pouring
[1:24:06] into our country. It was an invasion, actually. It was no different than the military. They were
[1:24:11] pouring into our country. The worst of the worst, in many cases, illegal aliens. And they want to give
[1:24:17] them all amnesty right away. They want to give amnesty to everybody that came into our country.
[1:24:22] Or you can defeat the Democrat communists and vote for more money in your pockets, bigger paychecks
[1:24:29] for your families, lower taxes, less crime, booming Ohio factories, no amnesty for illegal aliens.
[1:24:38] If you want that, you must vote Republican. So just think of what we have accomplished in
[1:24:59] much less than two years. Yeah, it's really much less. We inherited the worst border in American history.
[1:25:07] There's never been a border like that. I think no country, no third world country,
[1:25:11] have had it. You've seen it. Millions of people just walking in, totally unchecked,
[1:25:17] totally unvetted, murderers, everything. Prisons being emptied into our country. Many,
[1:25:22] many prisons from the Congo to South America. The prisons were all emptied out. They poured in.
[1:25:29] We've gotten many of them out. We're getting the rest of them out. We turned it into the strongest and
[1:25:35] most secure border in the history of our country. I like those people back then. In the past 17 months,
[1:26:09] this is a record, zero illegal aliens have been admitted into the United States through our Southern
[1:26:17] border. And in two years, we achieved the largest drop in violent crime ever recorded. You know,
[1:26:31] crime is down by the largest numbers ever recorded, despite the fact that we allowed all these people in,
[1:26:36] but we got a lot of those people out. We got the worst of the worst. We went out of here fast.
[1:26:42] And if you take a look at what we did in Washington, D.C., that went from a very dangerous place,
[1:26:48] three killings a week. Can you believe it in our capital? To no killings a week. It's a safe place.
[1:26:53] So we cleaned it and we scrubbed it and we opened 82 monuments, fountains, statues. But the murder rate
[1:27:03] at the lowest level of our country, 125 years. Think of it since 1900, before my father was born,
[1:27:13] my father wouldn't like this being brought up. He didn't like discussing age, but he wouldn't mind
[1:27:18] this because that was older than my father would have been. I had a wonderful father and mother.
[1:27:24] But think of it, 1900, 125 years, we have the lowest murder rate, 125 years, despite the fact
[1:27:35] that they allowed some very bad people in, but we got them out. And thanks to a Republican Congress,
[1:27:43] I signed a great big, beautiful bill delivering the largest tax cuts in American history, and they
[1:27:48] want to end it. We gave you no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security for our great
[1:27:55] senior. We made interest on car loans tax deductible, but only if the car is made in America. We only
[1:28:05] care about cars made in America. And the biggest thing may be certainly financially, but maybe ever
[1:28:13] anyway, under my most favorite nation agreements on drug prices, we went from paying the highest drug
[1:28:19] prices anywhere in the world to now paying the, you'll see it very soon, now paying the lowest drug
[1:28:26] prices with price differences of 300, 400, 500, 600, and even 700 percent. Never happened before.
[1:28:39] And to do that, I had to get other countries to double and triple the price. But I said, if you don't
[1:28:44] do it, I'm going to put tariffs on you, it's going to be a lot worse. They would say, no, no, you cannot do
[1:28:49] that. I said, that's all right, just double your drug prices. So what happened is they doubled and
[1:28:54] tripled up and we came all the way down. Nobody else could have done that. They didn't even try. Our
[1:28:59] other presidents, they didn't even try. We went from the highest drug prices anywhere in the world,
[1:29:07] sometimes 10 times higher than other countries, 10 times to the lowest prices anywhere in the world,
[1:29:15] all because you have a different president, all because you have a different president.
[1:29:23] We abolish all discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion policies throughout the federal
[1:29:30] government. We got critical race theory and transgender insanity and mutualization.
[1:29:39] These are the mutualization of your kids. You know, I talk about it all the time.
[1:29:44] Could you imagine 15, 20 years ago, I'd be up here talking and I'm saying, we will not
[1:29:51] mutilize your children. People would say, what the hell's wrong with them?
[1:29:54] The transgender mutilization of your children. I have to talk about it. It's a point because
[1:30:02] the demo, you know, in six states, they're crazy what they do. They take your kid away,
[1:30:05] they send him or her back. You don't even know what you're getting. It's the craziest thing.
[1:30:10] Minnesota is one of those places, by the way. Now think of it, or, or allowing men to play in women's
[1:30:18] sports. Can you imagine a 15 years ago? I said, we will not allow men to play in women's sports.
[1:30:24] You'd say, this guy's crazy. What a stupid thing to say. But that's part of our thing.
[1:30:31] I'll tell you, we have a, we have a problem, John. We have men to, we want men to allow women to take
[1:30:38] their place at offensive tackle in the NFL. I don't know. I'm not sure how that's going to work out.
[1:30:45] That's not going to work out well. No, but could you imagine having to say it? If I said it 15,
[1:30:52] 20 years ago, maybe even 10 years ago about men playing in women's sport, and we will defend
[1:30:58] women. We are defending women, by the way. What they're doing is really demeaning to women. And we
[1:31:11] made English the official language of the United States of America. And thanks to our Republican
[1:31:20] Congress, we delivered the largest ever investment in the United States Armed Forces over
[1:31:26] $1 trillion. And frankly, I think we're going to increase it a little bit. We're going to look
[1:31:30] at these people here, these press. But they're nice guys. They're just the photographers. They're
[1:31:34] very nice guys. We have a Pulitzer Prize winner here. A couple of Pulitzer Prize winners. They're
[1:31:39] very talented people. I didn't know who the hell was down here. I see all these people. I said,
[1:31:48] where are they coming from? I said, watch. I'm immediately looking to guard the stairway, right?
[1:31:53] Of course, with them, they might end up, all right? They might end up here behind me.
[1:31:58] We achieved more in two years than any other presidency in the history of our country. But now,
[1:32:04] the radical-left Democrats want to burn it all down. Every single Democrat in Congress voted against
[1:32:10] our record tax cuts. They voted against no tax on tips. They voted against no tax on overtime,
[1:32:17] and they voted against no tax on Social Security for our great seniors. They voted against voter ID,
[1:32:24] and they voted against proof of citizenship when you vote. So why did they do that? Because they
[1:32:31] want to cheat, okay? I saw a guy interviewed a week ago, a congressman, a Democrat. They said,
[1:32:40] why don't you want to have somebody show their voter identification or proof of citizenship?
[1:32:46] Well, it's racist. That's right. That's right. It's racist. They come up with more shit. I mean,
[1:32:59] it's racist. It's racist. They're crazy. They voted against securing our border, and they want to have
[1:33:19] the border open. You know, if they get in, they're going to open the border, and you're going to have
[1:33:23] two more states, Washington, D.C., where Republicans get 3 percent of the vote, and Puerto Rico, where
[1:33:31] Republicans get 4 percent. So we'll have four more senators. They want to have 23 people on the
[1:33:36] Supreme Court. They want to end the Senate. So you guys will be out of jobs. What are you doing
[1:33:41] running? You'll be out of a job based on them. They want to end the Senate. They want to basically
[1:33:46] destroy our country, and that's what they want to do. And if they get in, they will do that. They'll be
[1:33:52] able to do that. You know, if they get in and you have a bad presidential election in the next,
[1:33:58] because we have some very good people. But if you had a bad presidential where one of these lunatics
[1:34:03] got in, you will look at me right now, and you will say he's going to be the last Republican
[1:34:12] president in the history of our country. I will be. I will be. I will be the last Republican president,
[1:34:19] because they will add about 12 more electoral votes. They'll add four more senators. They'll
[1:34:27] add 10 more congresspeople approximately. They're going to rig the Supreme Court through just a lot
[1:34:34] of people. They want to put a lot of people. Their real number that they dream of is 23.
[1:34:39] They say 13. Who wants 13? You know, when I build a building, I never have a 13th floor.
[1:34:46] I go 12 to 14, because nobody wants to be on the 13th floor, okay? And nobody wants to have 13 judges,
[1:34:54] and they don't either. They want to have 23 as their real number. And frankly, we should terminate
[1:34:59] the filibuster, and all of this stuff goes away. All goes away. You terminate the filibuster,
[1:35:10] you get everything. You'll get Kate's Law. You'll get stuff that you don't ever remember. It'll be so
[1:35:15] beautiful. You'll do it all. And we will never lose an election again, because we'll have really good
[1:35:21] safeguards. All straight — we'll have great safeguards. You'll have voter ID. You'll have
[1:35:25] proof of — everything that you want that will be legitimate, because they can't win an election
[1:35:32] without cheating, because their policy is so bad. Their policies are so stupid. The only way they can
[1:35:38] win elections is to rig the election like they did in 2020. On election night, Ohio is going to prove that
[1:35:46] America does not belong to those who hate it. America belongs to those who love it. Radical left,
[1:35:58] radical left Democrat Sherrod Brown spent 52 years in office selling out Ohio. He sold you out.
[1:36:08] That's why your state's popping right now, because of a guy named Trump. And our first term was
[1:36:13] phenomenal. You know, we had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We're blowing it away now.
[1:36:18] You'll see that. This state lost — with him — 300,000 manufacturing jobs. That was on his watch.
[1:36:26] He lost 300,000. And this guy wants to be a senator and beat — beat an All-American football player?
[1:36:32] There's no way. He's an All-American football player! Boy, does that play well in Ohio.
[1:36:39] When people heard that, he didn't even have to be good anymore. Just — when they heard that,
[1:36:45] your numbers went through the roof. Your numbers have gone through the roof.
[1:36:48] But meanwhile, he requested an earmark of $750,000 to fund drag queens reading stories to children.
[1:36:57] Now think of that. He wants $750,000 so that drag queens in school can read to our children. He voted
[1:37:08] to exclude more than 99% of Ohio farmers from farm loans because they were white. He didn't want white
[1:37:16] people to get farm loans. Five times he introduced legislation to let adult men
[1:37:22] live at battered women's shelters. So he wants adult men to live with battered women. The guy could be
[1:37:30] sick. Nine times he voted against the Keystone pipeline, which would have been fantastic. We'll
[1:37:36] get it done. And he voted 10 times in favor of the deadly sanctuary cities that release illegal alien
[1:37:43] criminals onto your streets. Do not let Sherrod Brown slither his way back into power. You threw
[1:37:49] him out a long time ago. Vote to put Ohio first and keep Ohio first. Vote to keep America first with
[1:38:02] Senator John Eustad. John, please come up. Come up.
[1:38:06] Senator John Eustad, Jr.: Thank you so much, Mr. President. I'll tell you what,
[1:38:22] the Youngstown area for decades used to vote Democrat. And then you ran for office in 2016
[1:38:30] and flipped it red forever. Is that right, folks? And here's the deal, Mr. President. For years,
[1:38:43] Democrats had promised the people of the Youngstown area that they would solve their problems,
[1:38:48] but instead they made them worse. They shipped their steel jobs overseas. They shipped their auto
[1:38:52] jobs overseas. They closed power plants that harmed the people of Mahoning Valley. And they were let
[1:38:58] down time and time again when Barack Obama said manufacturing jobs aren't coming back. When Joe
[1:39:03] Biden told coal miners that he should, that they should get programming jobs and all of the things
[1:39:10] that we know hurt people right here in the Mahoning Valley. And worst of all, when Sherrod Brown and Barack
[1:39:16] Obama did the auto industry bailout for the corporations, they left our Delphi workers behind.
[1:39:23] They took, they took their pensions. And Mr. President, you well know, I have legislation to fix
[1:39:28] this and you've promised to sign it. And for once and for all, we're going to keep a promise, aren't we?
[1:39:33] Mr. President, I'll end with this. People for the longest time said that we could not restore
[1:39:49] the glory of this great manufacturing state, the state of Ohio.
[1:39:53] And I want you to know that I just looked this statistic up before I came. Since you were
[1:39:59] restored as president of the United States last year, Ohio has added 10,000 manufacturing jobs,
[1:40:09] many of them right here in eastern Ohio and northeast Ohio. And Mr. President, you've helped bring
[1:40:16] this region back in this state to prominence. And I'll tell you what, we are going to do everything
[1:40:22] that we can to win on November 3rd. And you're going to bring it home with us, aren't you?
[1:40:26] He's really changed since you all learned how great an athlete he was. No, I just,
[1:40:53] I just hit him on the back and I hurt my hand a little bit. It's like, it's like a piece of steel.
[1:40:58] You're right about that. Greatest, one of the greatest coaches in America. Coach,
[1:41:02] you're right about that. You're right about that. Great. We want him.
[1:41:06] We want him as our senator, respected by everybody. And also, I want to bring up Vivek,
[1:41:13] because I know him so well. And he is a great friend of mine. And come up and say a few words.
[1:41:19] Thank you. I want to thank Mr. Trump, President Trump for being here. And,
[1:41:34] you know, President Trump, I don't know if you know this, but we didn't talk about this last time.
[1:41:39] The woman I'm running against, actually, refuses to show up for a debate with me. I think you know
[1:41:44] something about that. But the truth of the matter is, for all the problems that we still need to fix,
[1:41:56] and we're going to keep fixing in Ohio, like the property taxes, like other issues that I'm going
[1:42:00] to help you address. We're going to bring down those property taxes. I do want to take a moment with
[1:42:06] this U.S. President behind me to say something we often skip. We often skip the step of gratitude.
[1:42:16] And I say this as the father of three young kids. I've got a six-year-old, a four-year-old,
[1:42:24] and an eight-month-old at home. Thank you. And I say this proudly with standing on this stage with
[1:42:35] the 45th and 47th President of the United States. There is no other country on planet Earth where I
[1:42:42] would rather be raising those kids. There is no other time in American history when I would rather be
[1:42:49] raising those kids. And for that, Mr. President, I want to tell you, thank you. We have the lowest
[1:42:56] unemployment rate ever. We have a growing economy. We have the lowest poverty rate ever. We have so
[1:43:03] much to be grateful for, so much to still yet build on, that when I'm the governor of this state, when you
[1:43:10] elect me on November 3rd as your next governor, and I trust you to do that, Ohio. We love you,
[1:43:16] and we believe in you. I pledge to you this. I will be a governor who proudly works with the
[1:43:28] President of the United States of America to bring more dollars into Ohio, to bring higher paying jobs
[1:43:35] to Ohio, to put more money in your pockets so that Ohio's best days and sort of through Ohio,
[1:43:42] America's best days are still actually yet ahead of us. Thank you, Youngstown. God bless you and your
[1:43:48] families, and may God bless our United States of America. Thank you, President Trump. Thank you,
[1:44:05] Vivek. And Vivek is running against a total lunatic named Amy Acton, who shut down Ohio schools during
[1:44:13] COVID, locked up your factories and your businesses. You made your life miserable, and she'd all do it
[1:44:19] again. She would do it again in a second. She said she'd do it again. Now Amy Acton is trying to double
[1:44:25] your state income tax. She wants to kill your job. She wants to demolish your factories, crush your dreams.
[1:44:32] She wants to take away your guns. She wants to get rid of the Second Amendment. Everybody needs to get
[1:44:38] out and vote for Vivek, and also you need to get out and vote and re-elect for Congressman Mike Rooley.
[1:44:47] Great job. And Congressman Max Miller, who's here. Thank you, Max, for coming. Thank you.
[1:45:05] Very good. Thank you. And elect Robert Sprague as your Secretary of State. Thank you, Robert.
[1:45:17] Jay Edwards for State Treasurer. Keith Faber for your Attorney General. Thank you, Keith.
[1:45:29] Frank LaRose, a friend of mine, for State Auditor. Frank, thank you. Great job. And everyone knows,
[1:45:39] and I've already said we're here. And I have such great respect for Senator Bernie Marino. Thank you,
[1:45:45] Bernie, for being here. Thank you. And I want to thank especially Senate Majority Whip, one of the
[1:45:58] most powerful men in government, John Barrasso, for being here. Thank you, John. Great guy.
[1:46:06] President of the Ohio Senate, Rob McCauley. Thank you, Rob. That's a big job.
[1:46:14] Director of the Federal Housing Finance Authority, who's doing a fantastic job. Bill Pulte. Thank you,
[1:46:24] Bill. Thank you. And I also want to thank a great friend of mine, Bob Paduchak, who was the head of
[1:46:33] the Republican Party. And I won a lot with Bob. And he's a fantastic guy. Thank you, Bob. As well as
[1:46:42] another really good friend of mine, somebody that ran the party. Everything she does is good. State
[1:46:49] Senator Jane Timken. Hi, Jane. I thought that was you. Hi, Jane. And your current chairman of the Ohio
[1:47:00] GOP, Alex Triantafilo. Triantafilo. I would have just used his first name, but I couldn't do that to
[1:47:12] him. Like, no, after the great job he's done, I can pronounce it. I can pronounce it pretty well.
[1:47:18] Alex, thank you. What a great job you've done. Thank you very much. And again, I want to thank
[1:47:26] the man that set me straight on the athletic prowess of our great senator. So, John Gruden,
[1:47:34] thank you. What a career. What a great career. Still a young guy. He looks fantastic. Still a young man.
[1:47:40] So another man. And, you know, this is sort of shocking, because I always feel that, like,
[1:47:47] top-of-the-level boxers like Mike Tyson, he came to our last rally. People love Mike.
[1:47:52] But the top-level guys, they could be 80 years old and they could beat a civilian, right?
[1:47:57] And a guy named Jake Paul and his brother. His brother's not too bad either, in all fairness.
[1:48:06] Right, Jake? But Jake Paul gets in with these guys that are not much past their prime, I'll tell you.
[1:48:14] And he really mixes it up. He is good. He is one tough guy. You talk about strength. They hit him on
[1:48:20] the shoulder. I said, that guy is strong. And his mother, this beautiful woman, is here. I said,
[1:48:26] how did you produce this monster? How did you do that? His mother, Pam, is here. I don't know if
[1:48:31] she would want to bring her up. Jake Paul, come up for a second, will you? Youngstown. Oh, H! H!
[1:48:51] Man, it's good to be home. I grew up about an hour from here in Cleveland. We love Ohio. My mom is here.
[1:49:01] She still lives here. A blue-collar worker, just like all the people here in Youngstown. I get
[1:49:08] confused by the left, the protesters. Do they not have jobs? That's all they do. Just carry signs
[1:49:16] around while we're doing the work. I know this is a union town. We love hard workers. And we have to
[1:49:24] protect Ohio. We face evil. We face these people who are willing to do anything to destroy us. All they
[1:49:32] do is talk on Twitter. But Twitter fingers never built the country. Hate has never built the country.
[1:49:40] And the woke socialist movement that we face has never built a country. And so the power, the power
[1:49:52] is with you Ohioans to go and vote for Vivek, for John. We have to protect this state because Washington
[1:50:00] doesn't belong to celebrities like me. It doesn't belong to the politicians. It belongs to you guys and
[1:50:06] us, the American people. USA. Let's go. So you guys have a choice. You can watch from the cheap seats
[1:50:28] like the left. Or you could lace up, get on the field, and fight for what's right. God bless you,
[1:50:34] Ohio. Go vote November 3rd. And we will keep control. God bless you, America. Thank you. Thank you,
[1:50:43] President Trump. Wow, that was great. I think his next move, you're going to run for a little office
[1:51:02] press. That was very good. I was very impressed. You have to be a little bit careful with Jake. I
[1:51:06] didn't know exactly what the hell he was going to say. That was very good. Thank you, Jake. Appreciate
[1:51:13] it. Former Ohio State Buckeye linebacker. Great. Fantastic job. Thank you. Everyone here tonight is
[1:51:20] part of the greatest movement in the history of our country. It's the greatest movement ever. But as you
[1:51:26] can see here today, it's stronger than ever before. We are going around to do this. I'm doing a rally at night
[1:51:34] in the last week. I'll probably be doing two or three a day. I don't know why the hell I'm doing
[1:51:39] it. I'm not running, but I am running. And you're going to promise me you're going to get out and
[1:51:43] vote. Does everybody promise they're going to vote in this? But to show you how we are doing in the
[1:51:52] polls, the CNN isn't exactly the greatest to us. But they did a poll, a couple of polls recently,
[1:51:58] and I thought I'd put them up. Please show the polls. Okay. MAGA GOP on Trump. In the 2024 election
[1:52:05] versus Kamala Harris, he got 99% of the MAGA GOP vote. Perhaps surprisingly, I might have thought
[1:52:11] it'd be 100%, but it was 99%. Compare that to his approval rating now at the MAGA GOP. It's 98%.
[1:52:18] That is, there's been no real decline in MAGA support. These folks say that they're going to
[1:52:23] vote for congressional Republicans come the midterm elections. Again, that's the 99% that Trump got
[1:52:29] against Kamala Harris. Look now, in terms of the congressional vote, 98% of them say they're going to be voting
[1:52:34] for House Republican candidates. So that support is actually really holding up strong. It's really,
[1:52:40] really strong when it comes to MAGA GOP and Republicans holding on to that vote.
[1:52:47] This one. Okay. The president Republicans most admire. It's Donald Trump. This is a historic
[1:52:53] comparison. A majority of Republicans say 53% say he's the Republican president they most admire.
[1:52:59] Ronald Reagan, who traditionally has won that much, Donald Trump nearly triples up on this.
[1:53:04] Reagan at just 18%. And then Abraham Lincoln, who by most historic accounts is the greatest
[1:53:10] president of all time. But Republicans say that the president that they most admire by,
[1:53:15] what is this? This is six, seven times as many. Donald John Trump at 53%, easily crushing Abe
[1:53:21] Lincoln at 8%. And the Elon poll showed that he was the greatest president as well. Don't
[1:53:24] feel like this slide might end up on a printout on his desk.
[1:53:26] Oh, thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. What an honor.
[1:53:45] I have to thank CNN, I guess. I don't know. I hope he keeps his job, Harry. I think
[1:53:51] he's pretty, he's pretty good, I'll tell you. But I do appreciate that. What an honor.
[1:53:57] So in conclusion, if you elect a Republican House and a Republican Senate on November 3rd,
[1:54:04] you're getting $5,000. We will make all Trump tax cuts permanent, including no tax on tips,
[1:54:16] no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security for our great seniors, because they can change it.
[1:54:24] They want to end all of those things. They want to end it. Why they want to end it,
[1:54:28] nobody has any idea. We will win the war on corruption and fraud led by our great Vice President
[1:54:34] J.D. Vance doing a great job. We will pass the No Invasion of our Country Act prohibiting any future
[1:54:44] president from ever opening our borders to illegal immigrants again. We're never going to let that
[1:54:50] happen again. We will pass a truly great health care plan that will stop all payments to
[1:54:58] big insurance companies, which own the Democrats. The big insurance companies own the Democrats.
[1:55:05] That's why they have this crazy Obamacare, which is so bad. And we will give the money directly to
[1:55:10] the people. So we're not going to go around doing what we've done. We're going to give the money
[1:55:15] directly to the people so you can buy your own much better health care and have a lot of money left
[1:55:21] over. We will end no cash bail immediately. And we will pass the death penalty of a large scale
[1:55:30] drug dealers, human traffickers and anyone who kills a police officer. And we will pass the Save
[1:55:40] America Act to defend our sacred elections. And that will include mandatory voter ID and proof of
[1:55:50] citizenship. And we will enshrine in permanent law no men in women's sports and no transgender
[1:55:59] mutilization of your children. So ladies and gentlemen of Ohio, the golden age of America is upon us.
[1:56:10] But you must get out and vote Republican. We've already made unbelievable progress. And now we will
[1:56:17] reach new levels of greatness levels that we have never seen before. It is my honor to be your president
[1:56:24] during such an exciting time. And together we will make America powerful again. We will make America
[1:56:36] wealthy again. We will make America healthy again. We will make America strong again. We will make America
[1:56:51] proud again. We will make America safe again. And most importantly, we will make America great again.
[1:57:04] Thank you very much. Thank you. Ohio, we love you. God bless you. God bless you, Ohio. Thank you. Thank you very much.
