[0:00] United States, Donald J. Trump. [0:03] And I'm proud of this land, Minnesota, Tennessee. [0:51] Cross the plains of Tennessee to shining sea. [0:57] Detroit down to Houston. [1:05] Every American heart. [1:07] And it's time we stand and say... [1:10] Thank you very much. [2:30] I love this place. [2:43] But I love farmers, I don't care. [2:47] And we're taking care of our farmers and everybody else. [2:50] And I want to just say a special hello to Iowa. [2:53] It's an incredible place. [2:56] I'm thrilled to be back in this state that... [3:00] You know, I shouldn't say, I shouldn't break, should I? [3:02] Well, what the hell difference is it? [3:04] Which I want all three times, [3:06] receiving more votes than any candidate in political history. [3:12] Gotcha. [3:15] And I want you to get out and vote. [3:18] When I kept the Iowa caucuses first in the nation, [3:22] I did that for you and I did that for your people. [3:26] There was a little movement that wanted to put you [3:28] a little bit back in the stack, [3:30] like at around 42 or so. [3:32] That's no good. [3:33] No, as long as I'm... [3:34] As long as I'm around in any capacity, [3:37] you're going to be number one. [3:38] Always going to be number one. [3:40] You'll always be number one. [3:43] I'll always have that little extra power. [3:46] You know, we only have a little more than two years left. [3:49] Can you believe it? [3:50] But I'm going to have a lot of power when I leave, [3:52] and I'm going to keep you number one. [3:54] It doesn't matter. [3:55] Two days from now, [3:57] the people of Iowa are going to elect Ashley Hinson [4:00] as your next senator. [4:02] Ashley. [4:02] And we're going to elect a great guy, [4:08] a real Trumper for a long time, [4:10] Zach Lane, [4:11] to the governor's mansion. [4:13] Thank you. [4:14] You're both doing great, by the way. [4:17] You're both doing great. [4:18] But we still have to get out and vote, [4:19] but you both... [4:20] I looked at some polls. [4:21] Very impressive. [4:22] But vote. [4:24] You know, that's... [4:25] A lot of people have been very impressive, [4:27] and then they've become very sad. [4:29] We don't want that to happen. [4:31] These two are special people. [4:32] We're just across the state line in Nebraska. [4:36] We're going to re-elect. [4:40] I went to Nebraska, made a little speech, [4:43] and he took off like a rocket ship. [4:44] You saw that, right? [4:45] It was going to be close, not close anymore, [4:48] because he's fantastic. [4:49] Pete Ricketts is going to be [4:51] a continuation of the U.S. Senate, [4:54] and elect America First Republicans [4:57] all up and down the line. [4:58] We have a lot of great ones. [5:00] We have a lot of great ones here. [5:03] Ashley's opponent in this race [5:04] is a woke, far-left, radical [5:06] named Josh Turek, [5:09] whose record is disqualifying [5:13] and actually is sort of disgraceful, [5:15] to be honest with you. [5:16] I wouldn't want it. [5:17] I wouldn't want to be running in Iowa [5:19] with that record. [5:20] Turek voted to allow schools [5:22] to turn your children transgender [5:25] without informing the parents [5:27] and with no parental consent. [5:29] I didn't even know you could do that here. [5:31] I know you could do it in Minnesota. [5:33] I didn't know you could do that here. [5:35] We better get that change. [5:36] He voted in favor of taxpayer-funded [5:39] transgender mutilization surgeries [5:42] and in favor of men in girls' bathrooms. [5:45] He wants men in girls' bathrooms. [5:47] I'm just giving you the facts. [6:03] No, I'm just giving you the facts. [6:05] I'm just... [6:05] I wrote them down. [6:06] I said, I don't believe this is Iowa. [6:09] I thought maybe it could be another place, [6:11] maybe Minnesota, [6:13] where they have the worst, [6:15] probably the worst, [6:16] or one of the worst governors in history, [6:18] not just now in history. [6:20] But he voted to make diversity, equity, [6:22] and inclusion training [6:24] a mandatory requirement in Iowa schools. [6:27] What the heck? [6:28] Ashley, you better win. [6:30] You better watch. [6:32] This is not good. [6:33] But this should make it easy at all. [6:35] So Ashley Hinson, on the other hand, [6:39] is a mother, a warrior, a patriot, [6:41] and she will never let far-left maniacs [6:44] push the radical left insanity [6:46] on Iowa's children. [6:48] She's... [6:48] I've known her for a long time now, [6:50] and she's fantastic, actually. [6:52] And if you don't... [6:55] If you don't want communists [6:57] controlling the U.S. Senate, [6:59] which is between... [7:00] How about the gentleman [7:02] from a place called Michigan? [7:04] He's in there. [7:05] Jihadist. [7:06] He's a jihadist. [7:10] Muslim Brotherhood. [7:11] Are you at Muslim... [7:12] Oh, no, I don't know anything [7:13] about Muslim Brotherhood. [7:15] What about your mother? [7:16] What about your mother? [7:17] What about all those little notes [7:19] back and forth? [7:20] Can you believe it? [7:22] Man, oh, man. [7:24] This can't happen to our country. [7:26] Take a look at France. [7:27] How are they doing? [7:27] Not too good. [7:28] But Ashley's going to be going [7:31] to the U.S. Senate. [7:33] You'll not have to worry [7:34] about any of these horrible things [7:37] that you hear about. [7:39] I think we can get a commitment tonight [7:43] that Ashley is not in favor [7:47] of the transgender mutilization [7:49] of your children. [7:50] Can we get that commitment? [7:51] You swear? [7:53] I don't think anybody in the room is. [7:58] That's why I understand [7:59] why they are having the election, [8:01] to be honest with you. [8:02] Turek also voted in favor [8:05] of deadly sanctuary cities. [8:07] He voted to give lavish welfare benefits [8:09] to illegal aliens [8:10] and even wrote a memo [8:11] giving illegal alien criminals [8:13] instructions on how to evade capture. [8:16] He's explaining to them [8:17] how to evade capture murderers, [8:20] drug dealers, how to evade capture. [8:22] This is not working for Iowa. [8:25] Do people know this? [8:26] I mean, am I just... [8:27] Am I saying this for the first time? [8:30] How the hell do you have this guy running? [8:33] Why can't I have somebody like that [8:34] to run against? [8:37] Actually, I did. [8:40] Oh, I did. [8:41] That was fun. [8:46] Oh, I did, yeah. [8:48] Very similar, actually. [8:50] He betrayed Iowa farmers [8:52] by voting to help climate extremists [8:54] bankrupt your farms, [8:55] and he campaigned [8:56] with a radical left group [8:58] that wants to kill, [8:59] absolutely kill, ethanol. [9:02] You know, I'm the one [9:02] that saved ethanol. [9:03] I don't know if you know it or not. [9:05] I did save it. [9:08] Iowa needs to reject this person, [9:11] this horrible person [9:13] that has none of your values at hand, [9:16] and elect Ashley Henson. [9:18] She's great. [9:20] She's great. [9:23] Josh Turek is shamefully trying [9:26] to deceive the people of Iowa [9:28] into thinking he's a moderate. [9:30] That's not a moderate. [9:31] What I just told you, [9:34] this is not moderate. [9:35] So he can go vote with extremists [9:37] like Abdul Mohamed Al-Sayed. [9:41] They can be together. [9:42] And James Telefrico. [9:48] And, oh, no, [9:50] Ilan Omar. [9:51] Woo, she's... [9:53] I don't know if you've caught it, [9:56] so I had it done. [9:57] I'm in this beautiful, [9:58] this beautiful Air Force One, [10:00] and we have breaking news all the time, [10:03] every two minutes. [10:03] I don't know where the hell [10:04] they get so much breaking news, [10:06] but one of them had to do [10:07] with Ilan Omar. [10:09] It was just revealed, [10:11] but listen, [10:12] because I don't think [10:13] even you people heard this, [10:14] although you might [10:15] with your modern telephones [10:17] and receivers. [10:18] It was just revealed [10:19] just a little while ago [10:21] that Ilan Omar, [10:23] not a person I've ever been [10:24] particularly fond of, [10:27] that her name is not Ilan Omar, [10:30] the one that she used [10:32] to get elected [10:33] and sworn into Congress. [10:34] In other words, [10:35] she used the name Ilan Omar, [10:37] but rather it's an entirely [10:39] different name, [10:41] Iran Nur Syed, [10:43] and it'd be [10:44] slightly different [10:45] than Ilan. [10:47] That's just, [10:49] and, [10:50] and I don't know [10:52] if you heard this also, [10:53] have you people heard this? [10:55] Have you heard this, Ashley? [10:57] And the last name [10:58] is incredibly, [10:59] also the exact last name [11:01] of her brother, [11:03] Ahmed Nur Syed Almi, [11:05] the person that they say [11:07] she married [11:08] and had children with. [11:12] Are you allowed to do that? [11:13] Jeff, [11:14] are you allowed to do that? [11:15] I don't think so. [11:16] Joni, [11:17] I don't know. [11:18] You're an expert. [11:19] Are you allowed to do that, [11:20] Joni? [11:22] When asked whether or not [11:23] she married her brother today, [11:26] they asked her, [11:27] did you marry your brother? [11:29] She said, [11:31] not to my knowledge. [11:35] That's one of the worst answers [11:37] I think I've ever heard. [11:40] You know, [11:40] I've heard some bad political answers. [11:42] I could go over a lot of them, [11:43] but that would be [11:44] about the worst. [11:45] Not to my knowledge. [11:46] I don't think so. [11:49] Did you have children [11:50] with your brother? [11:51] I'm not sure. [11:55] She didn't know [11:56] whether or not [11:56] she married her brother. [11:57] She wasn't sure. [11:59] So it's not looking good [12:00] because she used [12:03] a fake name [12:04] to be sworn in. [12:05] I assume she must [12:06] immediately have to resign [12:07] from Congress. [12:09] So please inform [12:18] our great Speaker [12:21] of the House [12:22] of Representatives, [12:24] James Michael Johnson. [12:26] I bet you didn't know [12:27] that James was there, right? [12:28] I just thought it was very classy. [12:30] I was going to use it. [12:31] He's great. [12:31] He's a great guy, too. [12:33] That the Democrat Party [12:35] has just conceded her seat, [12:38] that Ilhan Noor Syed Almi, [12:41] her real name, [12:42] is openly admitted to fraud [12:44] and she will not be legally allowed [12:46] to be a member [12:47] of that august body [12:49] any longer. [12:57] She won't be able. [12:58] I mean, not at all. [13:01] If you get sworn in [13:02] with a false name, [13:02] I would imagine [13:03] that's pretty tough to remain. [13:05] What do you think [13:06] the chairman of our party [13:07] what do you think? [13:10] You got two chairmen. [13:11] Nash, I don't think [13:13] I don't think [13:14] it's looking too good. [13:18] The Republicans [13:19] have just picked up [13:20] a seat in the House. [13:28] Now, she's been a scammer. [13:30] She's been a scammer [13:31] for a long time. [13:31] I'm pretty good [13:33] at watching that stuff [13:34] and she's been a scammer [13:35] for a long time. [13:36] You know, she comes [13:37] from a non-country, [13:38] basically, Somalia. [13:40] Has no government, [13:41] has no nothing, [13:42] has nothing. [13:42] All they do is run around [13:44] shooting each other. [13:45] Then she comes over here. [13:46] The Constitution [13:47] gives me absolute right [13:48] to freedom of speech. [13:51] She's telling us about [13:52] she's going to fix up [13:53] our country. [13:54] She comes from probably [13:55] the worst country on earth. [13:56] There are a couple [13:56] of pretty bad ones. [13:58] I'd say that's right there. [13:59] How about what they've done [14:00] destroying Minnesota, [14:02] 500,000 people? [14:03] They destroyed, [14:05] they're destroying, [14:06] well, maybe it could be saved. [14:07] We have a very good, [14:09] we're a very good candidate running. [14:11] Maybe we can save it. [14:12] But what a good state that was. [14:14] In this election, [14:15] I'm asking you [14:17] to do me a very big favor. [14:19] So when I run, [14:20] I get 50% more vote, [14:22] 49.2% more vote. [14:24] So I'm asking you [14:25] to pretend that I'm running. [14:28] Pretend I'm on the ballot [14:29] because if you get out, [14:32] we're going to win big. [14:34] And early voting in Iowa [14:36] is underway right now. [14:37] And so get everyone [14:38] that you know, go vote. [14:40] The Democrats would say, [14:42] go vote, [14:42] just pick up anybody. [14:43] They don't have to be [14:44] a citizen of our country [14:47] with the Democrats. [14:48] They don't have to have voter ID, [14:50] but we want voter ID, [14:51] don't we? [14:52] We're going to have it. [14:54] The last time [14:55] the radical Democrats [14:57] had power, [14:58] they gave us [14:59] the worst inflation [15:00] in American history, [15:01] the highest energy prices [15:03] in American history, [15:05] the worst trade deficit [15:06] in American history. [15:07] They allowed 25 million people [15:09] to pour across our borders [15:11] from all over the world. [15:13] It was an invasion. [15:14] It was like a military invasion. [15:16] And if they win [15:17] the midterms, [15:19] even as the start, [15:20] it's the start [15:21] of something very bad, [15:23] very dark, [15:24] very horrible [15:24] for our country, [15:25] they will do it again. [15:27] They're going to open up [15:27] the borders. [15:28] They're going to have men [15:30] playing in women's sports. [15:31] That's another beauty. [15:33] But the proud people of Iowa [15:36] will never let that happen. [15:37] We just need the votes. [15:39] We need the votes. [15:46] Less than two years ago, [15:47] the radical left Democrats [15:49] handed us [15:50] the dark age of America. [15:52] But we quickly turned it around [15:54] into what they are calling. [15:56] And even the fake news back there [15:57] is starting to see the number. [16:00] Wow, that's a lot of fake news. [16:03] Wow, I didn't see you back there [16:04] in the lights. [16:05] All those people. [16:07] No, there are a few good ones there. [16:09] Let's see. [16:10] I'd say about 8.2% are great. [16:14] There's a good one. [16:15] There's a good one. [16:17] But we're in the golden age [16:19] of America right now. [16:20] There's never been a time like it. [16:21] So we achieved the most secure border [16:27] in American history [16:28] in the past 17 months. [16:31] Zero illegal aliens [16:32] have been admitted [16:33] into the United States. [16:39] Zero. [16:43] You know, I wish it were. [16:44] I was with the great [16:46] Tim Scott last night, [16:48] a senator from South Carolina. [16:51] He's beloved. [16:52] He's great. [16:53] He endorsed me. [16:54] I sent him everywhere. [16:56] He was so good. [16:59] And we talked a little bit about it. [17:01] I said to Tim, you know, [17:03] zero for 17 months. [17:05] And that's made from people [17:06] that lean left. [17:07] Meaning, you know, [17:08] I don't know why [17:09] Democrats are always doing the charts, [17:11] but if they could find some, [17:13] I would rather, [17:14] because who can believe? [17:15] So they allowed 25 million people in, [17:18] and we allowed it in the last 17 months. [17:20] Zero. [17:20] I said, you know, [17:21] I wish it was like 109 [17:22] or even 1,014. [17:27] Because who can believe zero? [17:29] It was actually zero in 17 months. [17:31] Who can believe it? [17:32] Right? [17:36] Remember Joe Biden said, [17:38] we'd have to go to Congress [17:39] to get a change. [17:41] I said, no, [17:41] all you need is a new president. [17:43] That's what you need. [17:44] I didn't go. [17:46] I didn't go to Congress. [17:50] So record numbers [17:51] of illegal alien criminals [17:53] have been taken off the streets, [17:54] and we've achieved [17:55] the largest drop [17:56] in violent crime [17:57] ever recorded, [17:58] despite the fact [17:59] that people have come in [18:01] that we don't want, [18:02] and we're moving them out fast. [18:03] We've gotten [18:04] most of the really bad ones out. [18:06] And the murder rate [18:08] sounds horrible [18:10] to talk about it here, [18:11] but the murder rate [18:12] is the lowest level [18:13] in 125 years [18:15] since 1900. [18:22] And when Ashley goes [18:24] to Washington, D.C., [18:26] where Joni has spent [18:27] a lot of very prosperous years, [18:29] great job, Joni. [18:30] Great job. [18:31] We're going to miss you, Joni. [18:32] She's a good person. [18:35] Good person. [18:36] I was there right [18:37] at the beginning, right? [18:38] Good. [18:39] You've done great. [18:40] But she will tell you, [18:42] it's become [18:42] a whole different place. [18:43] It was the most dangerous, [18:45] murderous place. [18:46] People, three murders [18:47] on average a week. [18:48] Can you believe [18:49] they come down from Iowa? [18:50] They come from Indiana? [18:52] They come from places, [18:54] beautiful places, [18:56] and the parents [18:57] would get a call, [18:58] please, your son is dead. [19:02] Your son was killed [19:03] while watching [19:04] and looking at [19:05] the Washington Monument, [19:07] the Lincoln Memorial. [19:09] We were losing the, [19:10] you know what we're doing now? [19:11] Nothing. [19:11] It's a safe, [19:12] one of the safe, [19:13] it went from [19:13] one of the most unsafe cities [19:15] to now one of the cleanest, [19:17] most beautiful [19:18] and safest cities. [19:19] We have almost no crime. [19:24] I'm so proud of Washington. [19:25] Is that a correct statement, Joni? [19:27] So when I first came in, [19:29] I guarantee you, [19:29] Joni has lots of armed guards [19:31] walking you to your capital. [19:34] And now you don't need them. [19:36] You don't need them. [19:36] It's a whole different ballgame. [19:38] Washington, D.C. [19:39] is one of the safest cities [19:40] in the, [19:41] and it should be. [19:42] It's our capital. [19:42] It should be, right? [19:43] I signed the largest tax cuts [19:46] in American history [19:48] with the great, [19:49] big, beautiful bill, [19:50] including no tax on tips, [19:52] no tax on overtime, [19:54] and no tax on social security. [19:57] You don't have any seniors [19:58] in this room, [20:00] for our great seniors. [20:02] We don't have any seniors [20:03] in this particular room, right? [20:06] Are there any seniors? [20:07] I don't happen to be a senior. [20:09] No, I'm in my 40s. [20:13] I feel the same way, [20:14] but I don't know. [20:15] I hope that lasts [20:15] for a long time. [20:16] I feel the same way. [20:18] I'm the only person [20:19] that took three cognitive tests. [20:21] No other president's ever taken, [20:22] or vice president, [20:23] has ever taken, [20:25] and that's an aptitude test, [20:26] and I aced all of them. [20:28] And you know what? [20:29] I think everybody [20:33] that's running for president, [20:35] we saw that last term, [20:36] should be forced [20:37] to take cognitive tests. [20:38] You want to know that? [20:39] You know why they don't? [20:42] Because I had a thing, [20:43] I put it in so innocently, [20:45] everybody, anybody running [20:47] for president, [20:47] or vice president, [20:48] has to take a cognitive, [20:50] you know, they're tough. [20:51] The first question's easy. [20:52] The second question's easy. [20:54] And by the time [20:55] you get up to number 30, [20:56] there aren't many people [20:57] that can answer those questions, [20:58] I'll tell you. [20:59] But I put in a, [21:00] I wanted to do [21:01] an executive order [21:02] where anybody running [21:04] for president [21:04] has to take a cognitive test. [21:06] And I thought it was great. [21:08] I thought, [21:08] oh, I'm so smart. [21:10] That's a great idea. [21:11] And then, [21:12] you know what they told me? [21:13] It's not constitutional. [21:16] In other words, [21:17] a person who's stupid [21:18] is allowed to run for office. [21:21] I looked at it. [21:22] Tim, I looked at it so hard. [21:24] I said, [21:25] you got to be kidding. [21:26] No, I think you should pass [21:27] a cognitive test. [21:28] And so I took them three, [21:30] three of them. [21:31] I aced all three. [21:32] In fact, the doctors are here. [21:34] They travel all over the place [21:35] with whoever the president may be. [21:37] And I said, [21:39] you think I should do it? [21:40] And they said, [21:41] well, if you're smart, [21:43] I guess it's okay. [21:44] I said, [21:45] how many presidents [21:46] have taken them? [21:46] None. [21:47] Are they easy? [21:48] No, they're actually hard. [21:49] You know, the first question [21:50] I said, [21:50] oh, they have a lion, [21:53] a snake, [21:53] a giraffe, [21:54] and a bear. [21:55] And they said, [21:56] which is the snake? [21:57] And then when they report [22:02] that I aced it, [22:04] they always say, [22:05] oh, it was so easy. [22:07] And they always show [22:08] the first question. [22:09] Yeah, let me tell you, [22:10] by the time you get [22:11] to number five, [22:12] a lot of people [22:12] are left out on the road. [22:14] And by the time [22:15] you get to number 30, [22:17] it's not too many people. [22:19] They'll say like, [22:21] take a number, [22:21] any number, [22:22] they say 49, [22:24] triple it, [22:26] and they go pretty much [22:27] into speed, [22:28] triple it, [22:30] divide by four, [22:32] add 2019, [22:35] subtract 87, [22:39] divide by three, [22:42] multiply by nine. [22:44] What is the number? [22:48] Not a lot of people [22:49] are going to be able [22:49] to do that. [22:51] Not a lot. [22:52] I did it. [22:53] I did it three times. [22:55] And you know, [22:56] I got no credit for it. [22:57] They don't talk about it. [22:59] No, they don't talk about it. [23:00] They don't talk about it. [23:03] I took the damn test. [23:04] Where's that doctor? [23:05] Where the hell is that doctor? [23:08] There he is. [23:09] But he's one of the young ones. [23:11] Oh, what did they leave the, [23:12] they left the admiral [23:13] back home tonight. [23:14] We have admirals, [23:15] I have generals, [23:15] we have the great doctors, [23:16] and they are great. [23:17] Walter Reed, [23:18] medical center's fantastic. [23:20] But I said last night, [23:25] so I took it, [23:26] I announced it, [23:26] I thought it was going to be [23:27] a big deal, [23:28] nobody even covered it. [23:30] I took it away, [23:30] because you know that [23:31] if I didn't do well, [23:32] it would have been Jeff, [23:33] I would have had a disaster [23:34] on my hands, right? [23:35] That's what they told me. [23:36] They said, [23:36] well, sir, [23:38] if you do well, [23:39] it's great. [23:39] If you don't do well, [23:40] it's essentially [23:41] sort of a little bit [23:42] of a public, [23:42] you know, [23:42] it's a military hospital, [23:44] it'll get out, [23:45] it may be embarrassing to you. [23:47] I said, [23:48] well, look, [23:48] nothing can be as embarrassing [23:50] as some of the fake things [23:53] I've had to endure [23:54] over the years, [23:55] but let's do it. [23:56] So I did it. [23:56] So here's what the new thing, [23:57] so I did it, [23:59] passed it, [23:59] nobody talked about it. [24:00] Did it again, [24:01] passed it, [24:01] you know, [24:01] very little. [24:02] There was a mention [24:03] in one of the papers, [24:04] it was the last page [24:05] of the paper, [24:06] it was a piece about this big, [24:07] I did it. [24:08] And then I did it [24:09] a third time in this term, [24:10] I did it twice, [24:11] and then I did it [24:12] a third time, [24:13] and wasn't much mentioned. [24:15] And then, [24:16] here's what they said, [24:17] why has he taken three tests? [24:19] There must be something wrong [24:21] with the president. [24:22] What is he doing? [24:23] Why has he tried? [24:25] He's doing, [24:26] there must be, [24:27] so in other words, [24:27] now they say, [24:28] because I took it three times, [24:31] there must be something wrong. [24:32] There's nothing wrong. [24:33] I'll let you know when there is. [24:35] Actually, [24:35] you'll know before me, [24:36] I suspect, [24:38] but there's nothing wrong. [24:39] Isn't that amazing? [24:40] No, they're genius. [24:41] They're genius. [24:42] They have a situation today, [24:43] I shouldn't talk about it, [24:44] but do you mind [24:45] if I go off script slightly, [24:47] which I've been doing [24:47] most of the night, [24:48] Tim. [24:49] Tim Scott's been, [24:56] at the last three rallies, [24:57] either he likes it, [24:59] or he's doing a great job of, [25:00] you know, [25:01] he's sort of in charge of this. [25:02] He was there last night, [25:04] the night before. [25:04] Can you believe, [25:05] I'm doing about 34 of these things. [25:07] Can you believe it? [25:08] Now, [25:09] I don't mind. [25:10] I don't mind. [25:12] I don't mind, [25:14] because I really do like [25:15] the people here. [25:16] Let's see, [25:17] will I be doing any [25:18] that I don't know? [25:18] I like them pretty much. [25:20] We set records in, [25:21] I mean, [25:22] so many states, [25:23] this is a record, [25:24] but I think it's like 32 states, [25:26] Florida, [25:27] Texas, [25:28] we're going to Mississippi, [25:30] records, [25:30] all records, [25:31] you know, [25:31] all records. [25:32] So, [25:32] don't get too cocky. [25:33] You know, [25:33] when I came in, [25:34] I said, [25:34] we set the record. [25:35] There were plenty of others, [25:36] but what happened today, [25:38] I was hit. [25:39] we have a race going [25:43] on a governor's race [25:44] in Ohio, [25:46] and I was called [25:47] by Vivek Rameshwamy, [25:52] you know, [25:53] and I ran against him. [25:56] He ran against me [25:57] in the primaries, [25:58] and he's a very smart guy, [25:59] very good guy, [25:59] did well, [26:01] 2% or so. [26:04] No, [26:04] I believe. [26:05] It's excellent. [26:06] But he was good, [26:07] very smart, [26:08] and they're all smart, [26:09] you know, [26:09] anybody has to do this, [26:11] even if you don't think [26:11] some of them are, [26:12] they're smarter than you think. [26:13] It's not easy, [26:14] it's not an easy way to do, [26:16] but a big problem, [26:17] because the fake news [26:19] came up with this genius idea. [26:20] They are genius, [26:22] I have to tell you. [26:22] They're a little evil, [26:23] but they're genius. [26:25] So it seems that the candidate [26:26] that Vivek is running against, [26:30] her mother, [26:32] said horrible things about her, [26:35] called her a liar, [26:36] called her, [26:37] I've never seen anything [26:38] quite like it, [26:40] and it was so terrible, [26:43] and when I first saw it, [26:44] I said, [26:44] wow, [26:44] that means Vivek easily [26:46] will win the race. [26:47] And then I got a call [26:49] from Vivek. [26:50] He said, [26:51] what would you recommend [26:51] because I'm getting killed [26:53] in the press. [26:54] Why? [26:55] He said, [26:55] because they think [26:56] I should immediately [26:57] take the ad off. [26:58] They did an ad of the mother [26:59] saying the daughter [27:00] is incompetent, [27:02] a liar, [27:03] a disgusting, [27:04] unreliable person. [27:06] My mom would not say [27:07] that about me, [27:08] even if she believed it. [27:10] Mary McLeod, [27:11] I had a great mom, [27:13] I had a great mom. [27:14] She's looking down [27:15] at us right now. [27:18] But he said, [27:22] what do you recommend? [27:23] I said, [27:24] no, [27:24] tell me again, [27:25] you're serious. [27:25] The mother said [27:26] horrible things [27:27] about your opponent. [27:29] Why can't I have [27:29] that happen to me? [27:31] That's a good thing. [27:33] But I said, [27:35] you've got to ride with it. [27:37] You mean you have a mother [27:38] that said terrible things [27:39] about, [27:39] well, [27:39] who knows the daughter? [27:40] She really said [27:41] she was a horrible liar. [27:43] I mean, [27:44] it was crazy. [27:45] And he made a commercial. [27:46] He put it up, [27:47] you know, [27:47] like I would do, [27:49] like most people would do. [27:50] And I walk outside [27:52] of the White House [27:53] and we have this massive [27:54] scrum of breasts. [27:56] They're going crazy [27:57] about everything. [27:59] They're just, [28:00] they're crazy. [28:01] And these are crazy people. [28:04] And they are screaming at me, [28:07] tell him to take it down. [28:09] It's so disrespectful [28:10] to have her up. [28:11] How dare he do that? [28:13] How dare? [28:14] And I said, [28:14] one thing. [28:15] I said, [28:16] let's say that my mother, [28:18] Mary McLeod, [28:20] Trump, [28:21] called me a liar [28:23] and much worse. [28:25] The liar was the nicest part. [28:26] Okay, [28:27] that was the best. [28:28] Horrible things. [28:30] You would put it up. [28:31] These guys would put my thing up. [28:33] They would get the advertisement [28:35] of the year. [28:36] They would, [28:37] I said, [28:37] so you mean because [28:38] it's a Democrat [28:41] running against a Republican, [28:42] which is, [28:43] and if running against me [28:44] would be 10 times worse [28:45] because [28:46] Vivek is a, [28:47] very, [28:48] you know, [28:49] different kind of a guy [28:50] than me, [28:50] but running against me [28:52] with Trump derangements, [28:53] they would consider this [28:55] to be the single greatest ad [28:56] in history, [28:57] right, Tim? [28:58] And I said to the press today, [28:59] I said, [29:00] well, [29:00] let me ask you a question. [29:01] Sir, [29:02] he should take it down. [29:03] I had one woman [29:04] from ABC fake news, [29:06] one of the worst of all. [29:07] I think ABC [29:08] is the most crooked of all. [29:09] You know, [29:10] it's funny. [29:10] they spend all this money [29:11] on PR, [29:14] you know, [29:15] to try and, [29:16] this is ABC news. [29:17] They're the worst, [29:18] total fake news. [29:20] All of them, [29:20] they're all no good. [29:22] But anyway, [29:22] but this woman [29:23] starts screaming. [29:23] I recognize her immediately, [29:26] not a particularly attractive person [29:28] inside or out. [29:30] In fact, [29:30] I just amaze [29:32] that these people [29:33] can be reporters or anchors. [29:35] She's screaming. [29:35] She's a nasty person. [29:37] I've had a lot of problems [29:38] with her, [29:38] fake portions. [29:40] She goes, [29:41] you should tell him [29:42] to take it down immediately. [29:44] Why? [29:44] Because it's such a good ad. [29:46] Then I said, [29:47] let's say that my mother [29:48] said bad about me. [29:50] Donald Trump is a liar. [29:52] He's a horrible person [29:54] and a liar. [29:55] And my opponent [29:57] put it up, [29:58] Tim, [29:59] what are the chances [29:59] that the news [30:00] would demand that it be, [30:01] he says zero. [30:04] You're less than, [30:04] I think less than zero. [30:07] No, [30:07] so I said, [30:08] it's a big thing. [30:09] It's like a big story [30:10] about he must take [30:11] that ad down immediately. [30:13] He must, [30:13] no, [30:14] the mother [30:15] is calling the daughter [30:17] a terrible person [30:19] and a liar. [30:20] Everybody should be so lucky. [30:22] Why would you shield [30:23] somebody from that? [30:24] Why would, [30:25] why would we do that? [30:26] So I told him, [30:27] leave it up [30:28] and look upstairs [30:30] and say, [30:30] thank you, [30:31] God, [30:31] very much. [30:31] I appreciate it. [30:34] So, [30:36] but that's a hot story today. [30:37] They want him to take down an ad. [30:39] I only wish I could have had an ad like that [30:41] against somebody, [30:43] but as it turned out, [30:44] we didn't need it. [30:45] It was free. [30:46] We didn't need it. [30:47] We got all seven swing. [30:48] We won all seven swing states. [30:50] We won the popular vote. [30:51] We won everything. [30:52] 87% of the counties. [30:55] Did you know that? [30:57] Jeff, [30:57] did you know we won 87% [30:59] of the counties in America? [31:01] Like 2,575 [31:03] versus 500, [31:08] something. [31:09] I mean, [31:09] it was incredible. [31:10] It was a great election. [31:12] So, [31:13] why should I do it? [31:13] That's why we joked last night. [31:16] My wife is a very elegant, [31:18] beautiful woman. [31:19] Very respectful. [31:20] She's actually becoming [31:27] the next Eleanor Roosevelt [31:28] every time I look. [31:31] Force her kids, [31:33] take it down. [31:34] That's the internet stuff. [31:35] There's so many. [31:35] She does a great job, [31:36] but she's always saying, [31:38] please don't dance on stage. [31:41] You are the president [31:42] of the United States of America. [31:44] Do you know that? [31:45] Please don't dance on stage, [31:47] darling. [31:47] I love you very much, [31:48] but the dancing is not presidential, [31:52] and she hates, [31:53] in particular, [31:54] the weightlifting, [31:55] you know, [31:55] where the woman, [31:55] the woman gets caught. [31:58] Oh, baby. [31:59] Come on. [32:00] 211 pounds, [32:02] and then a man comes along [32:03] who transgendered. [32:04] He was a man that [32:05] he transferred over to womanhood, [32:09] a lovely ceremony, [32:10] and became a woman, [32:12] and he goes out to the stage. [32:13] He was a failed male weightlifter. [32:15] He failed badly, [32:16] and he takes the 211 pounds. [32:20] Ping. [32:21] He listened with, like, [32:23] nothing to it, [32:24] and then he does it again, [32:26] and he broke the record [32:27] by 102 pounds. [32:30] You know, [32:30] they put on the thing [32:31] when they're going for the record. [32:33] An eighth of an ounce here, [32:34] an eighth of an ounce going for the record. [32:36] She couldn't quite get it. [32:37] Then he goes up. [32:38] He breaks the record [32:39] by more than 100 pounds. [32:42] Now, [32:43] here's the good news. [32:45] No men in women's sports. [32:46] We've told the Olympics, [32:48] no, [32:48] we cannot do that. [32:50] We can't have that. [32:51] And we've actually won about 90%, [32:57] I'd say, Tim, [32:58] 90% of that case [32:59] in the Supreme Court. [33:00] There's still that little wrinkle [33:01] that they can go around. [33:04] Oh, boy, [33:04] I sort of hope [33:05] maybe we shouldn't, [33:07] I don't know, [33:07] maybe we shouldn't want to win that [33:09] because it's so good. [33:10] I only bring it up [33:11] about a week before an election [33:12] because I can't believe [33:14] they gave it to us, [33:15] no men in women's sports. [33:16] We have a lot of crazy things. [33:17] That's why [33:18] they're great at cheating. [33:19] They cheat like hell, [33:20] and if they didn't cheat, [33:21] they could never win [33:22] because their policy [33:22] is so stupid, [33:24] so stupid. [33:30] But could you imagine [33:31] in 500 years from now, [33:33] that record will stand [33:34] for the women? [33:36] That's terrible. [33:37] We have to change the records [33:38] because that record [33:40] will be standing [33:40] in 500 years, [33:43] and it'll be [33:43] 100 pounds more [33:45] than any woman's ever lifted. [33:47] And they can look back, [33:48] and by that time, [33:49] we'll have it fully done. [33:51] They'll look back [33:51] and they'll say, [33:52] who the hell lifted [33:53] all this weight? [33:54] But, you know, [33:55] with the way the world works, [33:58] women will get stronger, [33:59] and maybe in 500 [34:00] to 1,000 years, [34:01] you'll be close [34:02] to that number. [34:03] But the men will go up also, [34:04] right, Tim? [34:05] So it was sort of crazy, [34:07] but they want men [34:09] to play in women's sports. [34:10] How ridiculous is it, right? [34:12] How ridiculous? [34:13] And Ashley, [34:14] are you in favor [34:14] of men playing [34:15] in women's sports? [34:16] Okay. [34:16] I have a feeling [34:17] we're getting [34:18] major commitments. [34:19] You've got a lot of people. [34:20] I have a feeling [34:21] Ashley will never be [34:22] a big fan of men [34:24] playing in women's sports, [34:25] right? [34:26] No? [34:26] Okay. [34:26] She promised. [34:29] We secured commitments [34:30] for 22, [34:32] this is a record [34:32] by five times, [34:34] 22.2, [34:35] and they're building [34:36] plants all over Iowa [34:39] to the best of my memory, [34:41] and I happen to have [34:41] a very good memory [34:42] to the best. [34:43] I just approved [34:44] a steel plant [34:45] for billions of dollars [34:47] in a section of Iowa [34:48] that can use the jobs, [34:49] right? [34:50] Right? [34:51] One of the biggest plants [34:53] in the country, [34:53] maybe the biggest, [34:56] owned by an unbelievable family [34:59] with lots of cash. [35:01] They'll do it right. [35:02] They're looking forward to it. [35:03] Yeah, you're having, [35:04] I don't think of you [35:05] as a steel plant place. [35:07] I think of you [35:08] with a farm [35:08] and the John Deere tractors [35:10] and everything, [35:11] but you're going to have [35:12] maybe the biggest steel plant [35:13] in the entire United States. [35:15] I just approved it last week [35:16] and we had a great ceremony. [35:18] Ashley was there. [35:22] So the $22 trillion, [35:25] 22.2, [35:27] but the $22 trillion [35:28] is the largest number ever [35:31] for any country, [35:32] anywhere in the world, [35:33] at any time. [35:34] It was 10 years ago [35:35] that another country [35:36] had the record [35:37] and the record was [35:38] a very small number [35:39] by comparison. [35:41] So, I mean, [35:41] and that's why you're building [35:43] all of these plants [35:44] all over. [35:44] The stock market [35:45] has set 88 all-time records [35:48] in just this short, [35:50] less than two-year period. [35:52] And your 401ks, [35:54] you look like geniuses [35:56] and you didn't do a damn thing. [35:57] I did it. [35:58] You didn't do it. [35:59] Damn it. [36:00] Your 401ks are more than double [36:02] what they were a year ago. [36:04] Think of that. [36:04] I mean, you know, [36:06] do me a favor. [36:07] Before you vote, [36:08] everybody has to promise [36:09] they're going to vote. [36:10] Does everybody raise [36:11] your right hand, please? [36:13] Okay. [36:13] Then we could take it [36:14] a step further. [36:15] You have to promise [36:15] you're voting Republican. [36:17] But I have a feeling, [36:18] I have a feeling [36:19] that that's a big waste [36:20] of words in this particular room. [36:22] But your 401ks, [36:23] if you, [36:24] I would like you [36:25] to do one thing. [36:26] Get ready to vote [36:27] and then take a look [36:28] at your 401ks [36:30] and what we've done for you [36:31] and then vote. [36:33] There's not a person [36:34] in this room [36:34] that's going to vote against us. [36:36] Because your 401ks [36:37] have more than doubled [36:39] in a period of a year. [36:43] And income, [36:44] I did this the other night. [36:46] I said, [36:47] just listen to these three points [36:48] or four points [36:49] and I no longer [36:51] have to speak any longer [36:52] because they're so big [36:54] and so important. [36:56] Income for hardworking Americans [36:59] has soared [36:59] to the highest level [37:02] ever recorded. [37:03] Okay, this one. [37:04] Number two. [37:08] More Americans [37:09] are working today [37:10] than at any time [37:11] in the history [37:13] of our country. [37:14] Okay? [37:14] Number four. [37:17] Number three. [37:19] The poverty rate [37:21] has just reached [37:22] its best level [37:23] in American history. [37:24] There's less poverty [37:25] and the poverty [37:26] is at the highest level. [37:27] So those three things. [37:29] I'll go with a couple [37:34] of more [37:34] and then I'm just [37:35] walking off the stage [37:36] because what the hell [37:38] do I have to keep talking for? [37:40] African American poverty, [37:42] Hispanic American poverty, [37:45] Native American poverty rates [37:47] are all at the best levels [37:48] ever recorded. [37:49] Asian too. [37:50] Asian American. [37:51] And I'll give you one more. [37:56] Has anybody ever heard [37:57] of a gentleman [37:58] named Barack Hussein Obama? [38:02] Well, Barack Hussein Obama [38:03] said we will never [38:04] be a manufacturing country. [38:07] Well, we're manufacturing [38:08] at levels we've never [38:09] seen before. [38:10] And manufacturing jobs [38:16] are the best. [38:17] They're high paying. [38:18] They're great. [38:18] You love going to work. [38:19] I mean, they're the best. [38:21] Exports have soared [38:22] to the highest level [38:24] in American history. [38:26] So we're manufacturing [38:28] and we export. [38:29] That means we send out [38:30] to other places, [38:31] other countries. [38:33] It's the highest. [38:34] Think of it. [38:35] It's the highest level. [38:36] So you just heard [38:37] six statistics. [38:40] Ladies and gentlemen, [38:41] good night. [38:42] I love Iowa very much. [38:43] Leaving. [38:52] How the hell can I beat it? [38:54] You got more people working. [38:56] Your individual income [38:58] is the highest. [38:59] Your poverty level [39:00] is the best it's ever been. [39:03] And everybody's making money. [39:05] But think of it. [39:05] It's amazing. [39:06] Think of the one [39:07] highest level of exports. [39:09] You know, we think of [39:10] our country not that way. [39:12] And by the way, [39:12] you haven't seen anything yet [39:14] because if you look at [39:16] all the plants [39:17] that are being built here, [39:18] like your steel plant, [39:19] but if you look at [39:20] all of the plants [39:21] being built in this country [39:22] right now, [39:24] record number of car plants [39:26] are all coming in [39:26] from Canada. [39:27] They're coming in [39:28] from Mexico. [39:28] They're coming in [39:29] from Germany [39:30] and Japan, [39:32] South Korea. [39:34] You know, [39:35] they took our car. [39:35] They took 56% [39:37] of our car plants. [39:38] We're bringing them all back. [39:39] You never saw [39:40] activity like this. [39:41] And the numbers, [39:42] when I said about exports, [39:43] forget it. [39:44] Wait, you see in a year [39:45] from now, [39:45] two years from now. [39:47] I don't know [39:47] who's going to be [39:48] your next president. [39:49] And I think the law said, [39:50] I'm not 100% sure, [39:52] but I think the law says [39:53] that I'm not allowed [39:54] to run again. [39:59] I've studied that phrase. [40:01] Ashley, [40:02] I've studied that phrase. [40:03] I just got a poll number. [40:04] I'd kill everybody. [40:06] I'd beat everybody. [40:06] I studied that phrase forever. [40:09] Unfortunately, [40:10] it's quite concise. [40:12] There's not a lot [40:12] of wiggle room. [40:13] It says something [40:14] to the effect that [40:15] under no circumstances [40:17] and for any reason, [40:21] will you even consider [40:22] thinking about running [40:25] for president if you had? [40:27] Well, [40:28] the one thing is different. [40:29] They cheated us [40:30] on the second one [40:32] because we won it [40:32] three times. [40:33] So I think I have [40:34] the right to run again. [40:37] I think I have the right [40:39] to run again [40:40] because they cheated. [40:45] They cheated. [40:47] They rigged the election. [40:50] They rigged that election. [40:51] We did so good. [40:52] We won three times, [40:53] but that's all right. [40:54] You know, [40:55] I want the three wins, [40:56] but I don't want the results [40:57] of the second term. [40:59] I don't want those results. [41:00] What horrible results. [41:02] 25 million people [41:03] came into our country. [41:05] The place was going. [41:06] Our country was dead. [41:09] You know, [41:09] a lot of leaders said it. [41:11] Less than just a little while ago, [41:13] I was with a group of people, [41:15] but they say it all the time. [41:16] A little while ago, [41:18] we had a dead country. [41:19] Our country was dead, [41:20] and now we have [41:21] the hottest country [41:22] anywhere in the world. [41:23] They say it. [41:23] We have the hottest. [41:24] We have the hottest country [41:26] anywhere. [41:27] We made the largest [41:31] ever investment [41:32] in the U.S. Armed Forces, [41:34] Joni, [41:34] and $1 trillion [41:36] were all made [41:37] in the USA, right? [41:38] That was... [41:41] Now we're going to go up. [41:43] We captured [41:45] and brought to justice [41:46] the outlawed dictator [41:47] of Venezuela [41:48] and Nicolas Maduro, [41:50] who is now [41:50] a waiting trial. [41:51] And we won the war [41:55] in Venezuela, [41:57] one of the... [41:58] I mean, [41:58] if you've got to take over [41:59] a country, [42:00] that's like the best. [42:01] The oil. [42:02] You know how you find oil [42:02] in Venezuela? [42:04] Look at the ground. [42:06] You say there, [42:07] look, [42:07] you see bubbles. [42:09] You don't need machinery. [42:10] All you do is look around. [42:11] Oh, there's one right there. [42:13] It's unbelievable. [42:15] And think of it. [42:17] We captured Venezuela. [42:19] We won the war in one day, [42:20] and now we're working with them, [42:22] and we're producing millions [42:23] and millions of barrels [42:25] of oil a week. [42:27] Millions of millions [42:27] coming back into it. [42:29] And when the war in Iran ends, [42:35] oil is going to be even less. [42:36] You know, I was in... [42:38] I say it a lot. [42:39] I was in your state. [42:40] The day before, [42:41] I said we have to go [42:42] and stop them [42:43] from having a nuclear weapon. [42:44] If they had a nuclear weapon, [42:46] you wouldn't be very comfortable. [42:48] You probably... [42:48] probably would have seen [42:50] already the devastation. [42:52] But we had to stop. [42:52] But I tell the story all the time. [42:54] I always mention Iowa. [42:56] I was in Iowa making a speech, [42:59] and in going to wherever I was going, [43:01] I looked over [43:02] and passed two gas stations, [43:04] and I looked at the top of the pumps, [43:06] and it was $1.95 a gallon, [43:09] and the other one was... [43:10] Right? [43:10] The other one was $1.85. [43:13] Now, do you think that Sleepy Joe Biden... [43:15] Do you think he's looking at pumps [43:17] to find out the oil price? [43:19] Do you think when Biden drives along the street, [43:21] let me see the oil price today, [43:23] he doesn't... [43:24] He didn't look at oil prices. [43:25] He had no clue. [43:27] But think of it. [43:28] So I had to do something, [43:31] and I looked. [43:32] Your oil price will be lower than that. [43:34] There's so much oil around. [43:35] And, you know, [43:35] today it was announced [43:36] in the Wall Street Journal [43:37] that our Navy's unbelieved the blockade. [43:41] More oil came out of the Hormuz Strait [43:43] over the last week [43:45] than at any time previous, [43:47] including before the war, [43:49] the start of the war. [43:49] That's because... [43:52] That's because of the blockade. [43:56] Remember when Iran said, [43:57] we're going to block up the strait? [43:59] And they did. [43:59] And then I said, [44:00] but we're going to block up them. [44:02] So they haven't gotten [44:03] one barrel of oil [44:05] for a long time. [44:06] They're not exactly doing too well. [44:09] I terminated Barack Hussein Obama's JCPOA, [44:13] or the Iran nuclear deal, [44:14] as some people call it, [44:15] which was a road [44:17] to a nuclear weapon for Iran. [44:20] You know, [44:20] do you remember what he did? [44:22] He paid for it. [44:22] He gave them billions and billions. [44:24] You can't pay for this stuff. [44:26] They got to respect you. [44:27] Do you remember [44:28] he loaded up a Boeing 757 [44:31] with $1.7 billion in cash. [44:35] You know, [44:35] did you ever see a pile of a million dollars [44:37] like in $100 bills? [44:39] Tim Scott did, maybe. [44:40] I don't know. [44:42] But, Tim, [44:42] did you ever see... [44:43] It's big. [44:44] It's like three, [44:46] four times the size of this, right? [44:47] It's big. [44:48] Okay. [44:49] That's a million dollars [44:51] in Hunter Delvin. [44:52] He sent them [44:53] $1.7 billion in green cash, [44:57] emptied out every bank [44:58] in Maryland, [44:59] Virginia, [45:00] and... [45:00] The banks had no money. [45:02] Every... [45:03] He brought it to Iran [45:05] and he gave it to them. [45:06] Can you imagine [45:07] the face of these guys [45:08] when the plane opened up [45:09] and this cash? [45:11] $1.7 billion, [45:12] and then he gave [45:13] tens of billions of dollars [45:15] over that. [45:16] But to me, [45:17] the $1.7 billion, [45:19] that's when I realized [45:20] how powerful a president is [45:21] when you can put together [45:22] $1.7... [45:24] I still don't think [45:25] it was legal, [45:25] but what the hell. [45:26] Nobody ever looked at him. [45:28] But how the hell [45:29] do you give $1.7 [45:30] in green cash [45:31] to the number one [45:33] state sponsor [45:34] of terror Iran? [45:35] And so we obliterated [45:37] Iran's nuclear [45:38] enrichment capacity [45:39] with Operation Midnight Hammer [45:41] and Operation Epicure. [45:43] And we defeated them [45:57] military, financially, [45:58] and otherwise, [45:59] and now we're ensuring [46:01] that they never will. [46:02] You can never let them have. [46:03] You can never let them have. [46:05] I deal with them. [46:06] I deal with them. [46:07] They're freaking crazy. [46:09] I said, [46:09] you guys are crazy, man. [46:11] They're crazy. [46:12] Well, the problem [46:13] we have is [46:14] we wiped out their leaders. [46:16] They're number one leaders. [46:18] We knocked out [46:19] the first level. [46:20] They're gone. [46:21] Number two is gone. [46:22] Some of number three. [46:23] And now I have nobody [46:24] to negotiate with. [46:25] My biggest problem, [46:27] nobody wants to be [46:27] president of Iran. [46:29] You know, [46:29] we listen to some [46:30] of their conversations [46:31] very nicely. [46:32] We're very good. [46:34] Is that friend or foe [46:35] back there? [46:35] Friend or foe? [46:36] Is that young man [46:37] screaming back there? [46:38] I don't know. [46:39] We you're the president [46:43] of Iran. [46:43] Good kid. [46:45] It's good. [46:45] I think he sounds good. [46:47] But two weeks ago, [46:48] I also signed an order [46:49] waiving off-road requirements [46:51] for red dye diesel, [46:53] allowing farmers, [46:54] truckers and anyone else [46:56] to fill up diesel. [46:57] Totally tax free. [46:59] Totally tax free. [47:04] And on Monday, [47:04] I announced the Harvest [47:07] Fuel Relief Program, [47:08] providing our farmers [47:09] with eight billion dollars [47:11] to offset diesel costs [47:14] in the harvest season. [47:15] including an estimated [47:16] four hundred million dollars [47:18] is coming to Iowa farmers. [47:21] Four hundred. [47:22] Did you know that? [47:23] Did you know that? [47:24] Four hundred. [47:24] It's not bad. [47:28] And if you remember, [47:29] in my first term, [47:31] we had some countries [47:32] taking advantage of us [47:34] and I gave our farmers [47:36] twenty eight billion dollars. [47:39] You remember? [47:40] They remember like [47:41] they all remember. [47:42] Twenty eight billion dollars. [47:44] It all came out of tariffs. [47:45] My fifth favorite word. [47:47] It used to be my favorite word, [47:48] but they just just I said, [47:51] tariffs are my all time favorite word. [47:53] It is really. [47:54] It is. [47:54] But they said, [47:55] what about God? [47:57] What about your wife? [47:59] What about children? [48:01] Relationship? [48:02] They killed me with that. [48:04] Tariff is my favorite word. [48:05] So what happened is [48:06] I now make it [48:07] my fifth favorite word [48:09] and I'm okay. [48:10] Right? [48:11] I'm okay. [48:12] It's made us rich. [48:13] It's made us rich [48:14] and I've been able [48:15] to settle wars [48:16] because of it. [48:17] I say, [48:17] you're going to fight [48:18] India and Pakistan? [48:21] They were fighting. [48:22] They 11 planes [48:23] already knocked down. [48:24] And I said, [48:25] you're going to fight? [48:25] We're going to charge [48:26] you guys tariffs. [48:27] And no way. [48:27] You can't do that. [48:29] The tariffs were so important [48:30] that they stopped fighting. [48:31] We saved a, [48:32] you know, [48:32] possible [48:33] the two nuclear nations. [48:35] And tonight, [48:36] in more breaking news, [48:37] my administration [48:38] is using [48:39] Defense Production Act [48:40] to release [48:40] $150 million [48:42] to increase [48:43] American refining capacity [48:45] to produce [48:46] more diesel [48:47] and more gasoline [48:48] at record levels. [48:52] And the fact is, [49:03] you know, [49:03] we have more oil [49:05] than Russia [49:06] and Saudi Arabia combined. [49:09] And if you [49:09] go back [49:10] eight or nine years, [49:10] you'll see [49:11] that wasn't, [49:11] it was a different world. [49:13] But we have so much now. [49:15] And the thing we need is, [49:18] and we're building them rapidly, [49:19] is refineries. [49:21] We have so much oil, [49:22] you wouldn't believe, [49:23] even all of that oil [49:24] pouring out. [49:25] But one of the things, [49:26] I hate to say it, [49:27] and, you know, [49:27] I always get killed [49:28] when I say it, [49:29] but, you know, [49:30] with the Hormone Strait [49:31] having a problem [49:33] for a long time, [49:34] not too much anymore. [49:35] They do shoot us [49:36] every once in a while. [49:37] It's like, [49:38] you know, [49:38] being little chefs. [49:40] They do shoot, [49:41] and we knock [49:41] the hell out of them. [49:42] You know, [49:43] we can trace it right back. [49:44] So they shoot at us, [49:46] we shoot at them, [49:47] it goes right down [49:48] the barrel of the gun [49:49] or whatever launched, [49:50] whatever weapon, [49:51] you know, [49:51] it's unbelievable. [49:56] Now, [49:56] we have the most, [49:57] we have the greatest [49:57] military equipment [49:59] in the world by far. [50:00] Ask Venezuela. [50:03] We have the biggest, [50:05] we have the greatest [50:05] to think of it. [50:06] So they shoot [50:08] and within three minutes, [50:10] another weapon [50:12] or weapon, [50:13] a missile, [50:14] small, [50:14] you don't need [50:15] too large actually, [50:16] comes right back, [50:17] goes right down [50:18] the barrel of the gun. [50:19] So now when you watch [50:20] them shoot, [50:21] because we have pictures [50:21] of them doing, [50:22] they shoot and they run. [50:25] They shoot [50:26] and they are out of there. [50:29] Now, [50:29] we also gave truckers [50:30] and farmers [50:31] the right to repair [50:32] your own truck [50:33] and equipment. [50:34] And, [50:34] can you imagine? [50:37] And I pardoned [50:41] many people [50:42] who Biden [50:43] and their administration [50:44] sent to jail, [50:45] they were fixing. [50:46] You know what they were [50:46] sent to jail for? [50:47] They were fixing their truck. [50:48] Do you guys know about this? [50:50] You know, [50:50] it took me a little while [50:51] to, [50:52] I said, [50:52] you gotta be kidding. [50:54] No, [50:54] they showed me, [50:55] sir, [50:56] would you pardon [50:56] so-and-so [50:58] from Iowa, [50:59] few of them from Iowa. [51:00] I said, [51:02] what did they do wrong? [51:03] You know, [51:03] usually it's they killed [51:04] somebody in a fit of rage. [51:06] Sir, [51:06] they fixed their truck. [51:08] What? [51:09] You know, [51:10] seriously, [51:10] right? [51:10] This is only in America, [51:13] only in stupid America. [51:14] That's run by stupid people. [51:17] They fixed their truck, [51:18] sir, [51:18] and they got five years in jail. [51:19] I said, [51:19] you gotta be kidding. [51:21] What does that mean? [51:22] So you're not allowed [51:23] to fix it. [51:24] And you know, [51:24] the sad thing is [51:25] that you have guys here [51:26] that can fix their truck [51:27] better than the people [51:28] working in one of the plants [51:29] where they fix them [51:31] who don't know anything. [51:35] They're mostly kids [51:36] learning how to fix a truck, [51:37] and you have these guys [51:38] they've been fixing, [51:39] and if they fix their truck, [51:40] you know why they did that? [51:42] Because I said, [51:42] what's the purpose? [51:43] I sort of figured, [51:44] but because they're afraid [51:46] that if you fix it yourself, [51:48] you'll take off [51:49] all of that environmental bullshit [51:51] that they burden your angels with. [51:57] No, [51:57] sure. [51:59] Crazy. [52:01] Crazy. [52:04] And you'll spew [52:05] all sorts of bad things [52:07] into the air. [52:09] You know, [52:10] I buy a lot of equipment, [52:11] too, [52:11] and I always like [52:12] to buy stuff. [52:13] I say to John Deere, [52:14] I say to a lot of good ones, [52:16] Toro, [52:16] a lot of good case, [52:17] I say, [52:18] do me a favor, [52:18] do you have any [52:19] 10-year-old lawnmowers [52:21] that haven't been used yet? [52:23] I'll buy them all [52:24] because I'll tell you what, [52:27] you have to go to MIT [52:28] to turn on a lawnmower now. [52:31] Now, [52:31] by the way, [52:32] don't worry, [52:33] it's all ended. [52:33] I got rid of all that crap, [52:35] so now you can actually... [52:36] No! [52:41] Before I came in, [52:42] you had to go, [52:43] you had to be a PhD [52:44] from MIT. [52:49] You had to be very smart [52:50] to turn on a lawnmower. [52:51] I don't want you [52:52] to have to think too much. [52:53] I'd like that you... [52:54] Or, [52:55] bing! [52:57] And you know, [52:57] if the equipment [52:58] was a little off, [52:59] you couldn't turn it on. [53:00] You know that, right? [53:00] If the environmental equipment [53:02] showed that it wasn't perfect, [53:04] you couldn't... [53:04] You were just stuck. [53:06] And if you fixed it, [53:07] they put you in jail. [53:08] Other than that, [53:08] it's quite a good system. [53:11] Now, [53:11] these people are crazy, [53:12] I'm telling you. [53:13] And yet, [53:14] Barack Hussein Obama [53:15] would fly to Hawaii [53:16] to play a round of golf [53:17] at a 747, [53:19] spewing old one, [53:20] 35 years. [53:21] We have a new one now, [53:21] Beauty. [53:22] But an old one, [53:23] 35 years. [53:24] He'd fly to Hawaii, [53:26] play a round of golf, [53:28] shoot about 125, [53:29] and then he'd get into... [53:30] He'd get into the same plane, [53:33] and he'd fly back. [53:34] Then he'd have a news conference [53:37] on the carbon footprint. [53:39] The carbon footprint [53:40] is killing us. [53:42] But that's the way it goes. [53:44] To protect family farms, [53:46] we did something [53:47] that is one of the things [53:48] I'm most happy about. [53:49] We eliminated [53:50] the unfair estate tax [53:52] or the death tax. [53:58] Right? [53:59] It's the best thing. [54:01] And I tell, you know, [54:03] I tell people, [54:04] people would put that [54:06] in the great, [54:06] big, beautiful bill. [54:07] We didn't get [54:08] one Democrat vote. [54:11] We got all Republican votes. [54:13] It's amazing. [54:13] We have all these [54:14] different taxes [54:15] that we cut, [54:17] regulations that we cut. [54:18] It's one of the great... [54:20] You know, [54:20] we did, [54:21] it's actually seven, [54:22] eight years worth of stuff. [54:23] We put it all into one. [54:25] Everyone said, [54:25] we're crazy, [54:26] we'll never get it approved. [54:27] Right, Tim? [54:28] They all said, [54:29] I said, [54:30] let's try and get it [54:31] all done at one time. [54:32] From four to eight years, [54:33] some, you know, [54:34] it was all done. [54:35] If we did nothing else, [54:37] we had a great success. [54:38] That's why we call it [54:39] the great, big, big. [54:39] It's called it big, [54:40] but I like the word great. [54:42] I wish we would have added that. [54:43] Let's go change. [54:44] Let's ask an amendment. [54:46] I call it the great, [54:47] big, beautiful bill. [54:48] And it's got so many things, [54:50] but it's got all the tax cuts. [54:51] It should be the great, [54:52] big, beautiful tax cut bill. [54:54] But we have things in there. [54:57] But one of the things [54:57] I'm happiest about is [54:59] if you leave your farm [55:01] or small business [55:02] to your children, [55:04] they don't have to pay [55:05] estate tax. [55:06] And what was happening, [55:07] you know, [55:10] and what was happening [55:12] is the parents love their kids [55:14] and they'd leave the farm [55:15] or they'd leave the business [55:16] and the assessor comes along. [55:19] And a lot of times farms [55:20] are very valuable, [55:21] but they don't make [55:22] as much money as the value. [55:23] So, you know, [55:24] they're little, [55:25] they're really asset rich, [55:27] but they don't make the money [55:29] and the kids would have to go out. [55:30] They borrow the money [55:31] and your friendly banker [55:33] turns out to be not so friendly. [55:35] Borrowed the money [55:36] to pay the tax. [55:38] Turned out to be not good. [55:40] And they lose the farm. [55:42] And in many cases, [55:43] and I'm not telling you, [55:45] you know better than anybody, [55:47] your children would end up [55:48] committing suicide. [55:49] You know that [55:50] because they lost their farm [55:52] that their parents gave them [55:53] and the farm that they grew up, [55:54] the farm where they wanted [55:55] to grow old. [55:57] And they'll be assessing it [55:59] and the estate taxes [56:00] are very high tax. [56:01] 40%, 50%. [56:03] It's a massive tax. [56:05] It's a very bad tax. [56:06] And I got rid of it. [56:08] So now you can leave your farms, [56:10] et cetera, to your children. [56:12] Right? [56:13] It's a big thing. [56:14] And just so you know, [56:17] the Democrats want to put it back. [56:21] They're going to put it back. [56:22] They get in, [56:23] they're going to put it back. [56:24] And that's one that's actually, [56:25] it's a mean one. [56:26] That's why they call it a death tax. [56:28] It's a death tax [56:28] for a lot of reasons. [56:30] But they want to put [56:30] all of that stuff back. [56:31] No tax on tips, [56:33] no tax on Social Security [56:35] for your seniors, [56:36] no tax on overtime. [56:38] They want to put it all back [56:39] if you put them in office, [56:41] if you vote for them. [56:42] And Ashley will never be, [56:44] and your people in Congress, [56:46] you've sent it up like, [56:48] oh, you approved it so fast. [56:50] You guys were so, [56:51] you were so great. [56:52] They're warriors, these people. [56:53] They're great. [56:54] I know every one of them very well. [56:56] Right? [56:57] That was a big deal. [57:01] And we have Paul. [57:02] Is that Paul? [57:02] Paul. [57:03] Wow. [57:04] Paul is here from, [57:05] he, Border Patrol, [57:07] he's the boss [57:08] and he's a great guy. [57:09] Give up, Paul. [57:14] We saw Paul. [57:16] And he's tough. [57:21] Come here. [57:22] Come here. [57:26] You know, [57:26] he never heard from the Bordazar. [57:28] That was Kamala. [57:30] She was appointed Bordazar [57:31] by Sleepy Joe. [57:32] And I said, [57:34] did you ever hear? [57:35] No. [57:36] Did she ever go there? [57:36] No. [57:37] But he heard from me every week. [57:39] I said, [57:39] Paul, we got to do better. [57:41] Go ahead. [57:41] Thank you, President Trump. [57:46] And again, [57:47] we're in the great state of Iowa [57:49] where we have to get [57:51] Ashley Henson elected [57:52] into the Senate. [57:54] And all of these great Republicans [57:56] that are fighting every day [57:58] and will continue to fight every day. [57:59] Yeah, I was able to meet [58:02] with President Trump [58:03] during the disastrous administration [58:06] of Joe Biden, [58:08] Sleepy Joe. [58:09] And I told him, [58:13] I said, [58:13] President Trump, [58:14] your agents need you. [58:17] Your country needs you [58:18] because he is the only man [58:21] that could do the job. [58:22] He did it the first time. [58:23] And for 17 months, [58:26] we have released zero [58:27] because President Biden [58:30] destroyed this country. [58:32] And President Trump came in [58:34] and said no more. [58:36] He secured the border [58:37] once and for all. [58:38] And we need to continue [58:40] another successful two years. [58:43] And we need these people in [58:45] because President Trump [58:46] is the greatest president [58:47] in the history of this country. [58:49] That's not bad. [59:02] He did a good job. [59:03] Wow. [59:04] He's a great guy, actually. [59:06] I'll tell you, [59:06] Border Patrol and ICE [59:07] and all law enforcement. [59:08] Boy, I met a lot of you [59:10] in law enforcement backstage. [59:12] Your sheriffs, [59:12] your people, [59:13] they're great. [59:14] They're great. [59:15] And, you know, [59:15] we're going to seek [59:18] the death penalty [59:19] for anybody that kills [59:20] a law enforcement official [59:22] or policeman. [59:23] Right? [59:27] Unless you don't want that. [59:30] Unless you would... [59:31] That's great. [59:34] Thank you very much. [59:35] You know, we're so proud. [59:36] We're so proud. [59:37] These guys are so good. [59:38] They do such a good job. [59:39] They don't... [59:40] I'll tell you, really, [59:41] people have great respect. [59:42] You know, you don't feel it [59:43] because it's so... [59:45] You know, all the churning [59:46] that they do back there, [59:47] all those people. [59:48] But everyone respects you guys [59:50] and really loves you a lot. [59:53] We also gave Iowa [59:59] an emergency waiver [1:00:00] to sell E-15 all year round. [1:00:02] And with Ashley in the Senate, [1:00:05] we will make it year-round E-15. [1:00:07] We'll make it permanent. [1:00:08] We'll get it done. [1:00:09] Right? [1:00:10] That's a big deal for them. [1:00:12] I settled eight raging wars [1:00:14] or soon-to-be wars. [1:00:16] Some of them were just about started. [1:00:18] And we're close to, [1:00:20] I think, ending two more. [1:00:21] I think Russia-Ukraine is getting [1:00:22] at that position. [1:00:24] I mean, they are... [1:00:26] They've been fighting a long time. [1:00:27] You know, they lose, on average, [1:00:29] 25,000, mostly soldiers, a month. [1:00:32] You know that? [1:00:33] 25... [1:00:33] I think of 25,000 young people [1:00:36] every month, just about. [1:00:39] It was... [1:00:39] Last month, it was 32,000. [1:00:41] But it averages 25,000, [1:00:43] 27,000 soldiers die every single month. [1:00:46] And we're going to have a RAND finish very soon. [1:00:48] One way or the other, [1:00:50] it's almost insignificant to me which way. [1:00:53] But one way or the other, [1:00:54] it's going to be done very soon. [1:00:56] And your gasoline prices [1:00:58] and your oil is going to come tumbling down, [1:01:00] like the day that I spent seven months ago [1:01:03] in Iowa looking at the top of the pump. [1:01:05] And we got all 28 Hamas hostages [1:01:11] returned to their families, [1:01:12] both living and dead. [1:01:13] And hundreds before that, [1:01:15] we got them all returned. [1:01:23] And just yesterday, [1:01:24] we got Stephen Hubbard back from Russia. [1:01:27] So Stephen Hubbard was a man [1:01:31] who was captured in Russia and put in jail. [1:01:33] He stayed in jail for years under Joe Biden. [1:01:39] But I got him back. [1:01:40] But should have never happened. [1:01:43] And I called President Putin. [1:01:44] And I said, you know, [1:01:47] do us a favor. [1:01:48] Let us have Stephen Hubbard back. [1:01:50] He said, I will. [1:01:52] He will. [1:01:52] It was very quick, quick. [1:01:55] And we didn't have to pay $6 billion [1:01:57] like they would do. [1:01:59] $6 billion. [1:02:00] Remember, they got a few people. [1:02:01] Six, they had the basketball player. [1:02:03] Remember, we got the basketball player [1:02:05] that doesn't stand up for the Olympics. [1:02:07] Hey, by the way, [1:02:07] what's going on with the women's NBA? [1:02:09] What's that all about? [1:02:15] You know, they'll destroy themselves [1:02:17] before they get started [1:02:18] because they just started to do good. [1:02:20] And you had a player here [1:02:22] who was very good, [1:02:23] who was very helpful to that. [1:02:25] No, it's a big deal going on. [1:02:29] They leave the court [1:02:30] when the national anthems play. [1:02:32] What's that all about? [1:02:33] You know, the NFL did that for a while [1:02:35] and they stopped [1:02:36] because people stopped [1:02:37] watching the games. [1:02:39] So I think you should do the same thing [1:02:41] with women's basketball [1:02:42] unless they get there. [1:02:48] And what about LeBron James? [1:02:49] Did you see that deal? [1:02:52] No, he's doing, [1:02:54] during the national anthem, [1:02:55] he's practicing his golf swing. [1:02:58] He's practicing. [1:02:59] So what the hell is that? [1:03:00] No, it's a big scandal kind of a story. [1:03:03] What's it all about? [1:03:04] I don't understand it. [1:03:05] I don't understand it. [1:03:07] We conducted large numbers [1:03:08] of military strikes [1:03:09] to smash the drug cartels [1:03:11] and we brought the flow [1:03:12] of deadly drugs coming in by ocean. [1:03:15] Think of this, [1:03:16] coming in by ocean, [1:03:17] it's down by 97%. [1:03:20] That's 97%. [1:03:27] And drugs are about 18 years, [1:03:31] 19 years now, [1:03:32] they're at the lowest level [1:03:33] coming in through Mexico. [1:03:34] But by water, [1:03:36] a lot of them were coming in by water, [1:03:38] down 97%. [1:03:39] And we're trying to figure out [1:03:41] who are the 3% [1:03:42] because I happen to consider them [1:03:44] to be among the bravest people [1:03:45] anywhere in the world. [1:03:46] We've destroyed the fishing industry [1:03:49] all over the place. [1:03:50] Nobody wants to go fishing anymore. [1:03:51] That's the only problem. [1:03:53] But, you know, [1:03:54] we used to take them [1:03:55] into a Miami court [1:03:56] and they'd be freed immediately. [1:03:58] Not us. [1:03:59] I mean, for years, [1:04:00] nothing happened. [1:04:01] It's amazing. [1:04:02] So we're down 97%. [1:04:03] We're down about 62% overall [1:04:05] and getting better. [1:04:07] The land is the easy part. [1:04:08] The water was the hardest part [1:04:10] and we took care of it [1:04:11] with those missile shots. [1:04:12] And, you know, [1:04:13] you feel terribly. [1:04:14] It's tough. [1:04:14] But each one of those boats [1:04:16] would kill 5,000 to 10,000 people [1:04:18] and destroy families. [1:04:20] So when you hear that, [1:04:21] you feel a lot better. [1:04:23] I got most favored nation agreements [1:04:24] to reduce the cost [1:04:25] of many prescription drugs [1:04:27] from the highest drug prices [1:04:29] anywhere in the world [1:04:30] to the lowest drug prices [1:04:31] anywhere in the world. [1:04:33] We now have the lowest drug prices [1:04:35] and we'll be reducing [1:04:38] the drug prices by 50% to 90%. [1:04:41] My first term, [1:04:42] I got one-eighth of one percent. [1:04:44] First time in 28 years [1:04:46] that they went down. [1:04:47] One-eighth of one percent. [1:04:48] I thought it was great. [1:04:49] I had a news conference. [1:04:50] But now it's down 50% to 90%. [1:04:52] Think of it. [1:04:53] We had the highest drug prices [1:04:55] in the world [1:04:56] and we now have [1:04:57] the lowest drug prices [1:04:58] and nobody else could have done. [1:05:01] And we abolished [1:05:04] all discriminatory, [1:05:05] diversity, equity, [1:05:06] and inclusion policies [1:05:08] throughout the federal government. [1:05:09] We got critical race theory [1:05:14] and transgender insanity [1:05:16] the hell out of our schools [1:05:18] and military. [1:05:19] And we made English [1:05:22] the official language [1:05:23] of the United States of America. [1:05:29] They love that. [1:05:32] They love that. [1:05:35] That's a big deal. [1:05:35] I don't know. [1:05:36] They love that. [1:05:36] Everybody always gets a big hand. [1:05:39] Our country is doing so well [1:05:41] and this is important [1:05:43] that under Republican leadership [1:05:45] that only I can make this promise. [1:05:48] I mean, I'm the only one [1:05:49] that Democrats can't make this promise. [1:05:52] If Republicans win [1:05:53] the House of Representatives [1:05:55] and the Senate, [1:05:56] I am going to give [1:05:58] all adult citizens, [1:06:00] including those from [1:06:01] a place called Iowa, [1:06:04] man and wife, [1:06:05] man and wife, [1:06:06] if you're married, [1:06:08] we're going to give everybody [1:06:10] one, just one big hit, [1:06:13] $5,000. [1:06:15] So if you're a man and wife, [1:06:19] it's five and five. [1:06:22] And only a Republican can do that [1:06:24] because Democrats aren't able to. [1:06:27] They're not taking in [1:06:28] any amount of money. [1:06:30] They have no tariffs. [1:06:31] They have no anything. [1:06:33] We have record-setting economic success, [1:06:36] like I just explained tonight. [1:06:37] But the Democrat policies [1:06:39] won't allow this to happen. [1:06:41] In fact, the exact opposite will happen [1:06:43] and if the Democrats win, [1:06:45] you will have a 1929, [1:06:47] and I hope this, [1:06:49] first of all, [1:06:49] I hope they don't win. [1:06:50] But if they do, [1:06:51] you're going to have a 1929-style [1:06:53] economic depression [1:06:55] because their policies [1:06:56] are so stupid. [1:06:59] They're almost like, [1:07:00] if you think about [1:07:01] some of the transgender policies [1:07:03] or the men playing [1:07:05] in women's sports [1:07:06] or the open borders, [1:07:07] I'm good at finance. [1:07:09] I've always been great at finance. [1:07:10] Their policies will lead [1:07:12] to a massive recession, [1:07:14] but more likely a depression. [1:07:15] Our country will be practically finished. [1:07:17] If the Republicans win, [1:07:19] you'll each have $5,000 in your pocket [1:07:22] and economic success for our country [1:07:24] like we have never, ever seen before. [1:07:27] And remember, [1:07:32] just recently, [1:07:34] I gave all members [1:07:35] of the United States military [1:07:37] $1,776, right? [1:07:41] And everyone said, [1:07:44] oh, it can't be done. [1:07:45] You can't do it. [1:07:45] It won't be done. [1:07:46] You can't do it. [1:07:47] Well, I did it. [1:07:48] And in fact, [1:07:49] it was $1,775. [1:07:50] The generals, [1:07:51] I said, [1:07:51] generals, [1:07:52] I want to give them a bonus. [1:07:53] They've been so great. [1:07:55] Tell me what we can do. [1:07:56] So they came back at $1,775. [1:07:59] True. [1:08:00] They came back. [1:08:00] They said, [1:08:01] sir. [1:08:02] These three guys [1:08:03] who are so handsome. [1:08:03] I hate handsome men. [1:08:04] I've always hated them. [1:08:06] No, they're like central casting. [1:08:08] Four-star guys. [1:08:09] They said, [1:08:10] we have too many four-stars. [1:08:11] You know, [1:08:11] we have more four-stars [1:08:12] than we had during [1:08:13] the Second World War. [1:08:14] So if you notice, [1:08:15] we've cut back slightly. [1:08:17] We have to do that. [1:08:18] But we only cut back the bad ones. [1:08:19] Don't worry about it. [1:08:21] But I said, [1:08:22] generals, [1:08:22] what do you think? [1:08:24] $1,775. [1:08:25] I said, [1:08:26] do you think we could scrounge up [1:08:27] one more dollar? [1:08:29] And then we're at $1,776. [1:08:31] Yes, you go. [1:08:32] And that money [1:08:34] was given a year ago. [1:08:36] And to this day, [1:08:37] everybody, [1:08:39] every time they see me, [1:08:40] they say, [1:08:41] sir, [1:08:41] thank you very much. [1:08:42] I know what they're talking about. [1:08:44] $1,776. [1:08:45] And the $5,000 dividend [1:08:47] is approximately, [1:08:48] think of it only, [1:08:50] it's a lot, [1:08:51] but it's $1 trillion. [1:08:52] But we have a record-setting [1:08:53] $22.2 trillion [1:08:55] that's being invested [1:08:56] in our country. [1:08:57] So when you think of it, [1:08:59] we are the number one [1:09:01] growth country [1:09:02] anywhere in the world. [1:09:03] The only caveat [1:09:06] on the, [1:09:07] let's call it the Trump dividend, [1:09:09] is that [1:09:09] you have to spend the money [1:09:11] in the United States of America. [1:09:13] We don't want you going to China. [1:09:19] We don't want you going to Japan. [1:09:21] We don't want you going to France. [1:09:23] Would anyone like to go to France? [1:09:26] Boy, [1:09:28] they better straighten that out fast. [1:09:29] Look, [1:09:30] that's what's going to happen [1:09:30] if you put the radical left lunatics [1:09:32] in here, [1:09:34] like the people [1:09:35] that these two great people [1:09:36] are running against. [1:09:37] You put them in [1:09:38] and that's what you're going to have. [1:09:39] That's what they have. [1:09:40] They have an immigration. [1:09:42] They'd like to say, [1:09:43] oh, yes, [1:09:43] these are high school. [1:09:44] They're not high school students. [1:09:46] They don't like the way [1:09:47] the high schools run. [1:09:48] Such crap. [1:09:49] It's immigration. [1:09:51] It's a huge immigration. [1:09:52] You're going to have it. [1:09:53] And it's all radical left. [1:09:54] You know the way [1:09:55] they like to blame the right? [1:09:57] I'll tell you what, [1:09:58] these are left problems. [1:09:59] And I've never seen that. [1:10:02] Those are beyond right. [1:10:04] So if you'd like, [1:10:06] I think, [1:10:06] should we make a special waiver, [1:10:10] Tim, [1:10:10] where if somebody really wants [1:10:11] to go to France, [1:10:12] they can spend their 5,000 in France? [1:10:15] Tim Scott said no. [1:10:18] That's the end of that, right? [1:10:19] The choice in this election [1:10:21] is very simple. [1:10:22] You can vote for [1:10:23] the radical left Democrat communists [1:10:25] to loot your wealth, [1:10:27] raise your taxes [1:10:28] by $5 trillion, [1:10:29] annihilate your borders, [1:10:30] decimate Iowa's farms [1:10:33] and factories, [1:10:34] mutilate your children [1:10:35] and give 25 million [1:10:37] illegal aliens amnesty [1:10:38] and the right to vote. [1:10:39] That's what they want. [1:10:41] They want to give them [1:10:41] the right to vote. [1:10:42] They want to give them [1:10:43] amnesty. [1:10:45] Or you can defeat [1:10:46] the Democrat communists [1:10:47] and vote for more money [1:10:48] in your pockets, [1:10:49] bigger paychecks [1:10:50] for your families, [1:10:51] lower taxes, [1:10:52] less crime, [1:10:53] a booming Iowa economy [1:10:55] and no amnesty [1:10:57] for your illegal aliens. [1:10:59] You must vote. [1:11:00] To get that, [1:11:00] you must vote Republican. [1:11:03] Republican. [1:11:03] Got to vote for Republicans. [1:11:08] I think we're going [1:11:12] to have a very big, [1:11:13] if you guys vote, [1:11:14] again, [1:11:15] if you guys vote, [1:11:16] we're going to have a very, [1:11:17] you got to get to vote. [1:11:18] Got to remember, [1:11:19] I'm on the ballot [1:11:20] just because I am [1:11:20] on the ballot really. [1:11:21] It's our stuff. [1:11:22] It's going to be taken away. [1:11:23] If we don't win, [1:11:25] it's going to be taken away. [1:11:26] So I am really on the ballot, [1:11:28] but you got to get it. [1:11:29] If you get out [1:11:30] and vote like you did [1:11:30] in 2024, [1:11:32] we win in a landslide, [1:11:33] you know. [1:11:33] We win in a landslide. [1:11:34] So every single Democrat [1:11:40] in college voted [1:11:42] against our tax cuts. [1:11:43] Every single one of them [1:11:44] voted against our tax cuts, [1:11:47] our no tax on tips, [1:11:49] no tax on overtime [1:11:50] for our seniors. [1:11:52] Every single one. [1:11:53] We didn't have, [1:11:54] think of this, [1:11:55] you have no tax on overtime. [1:11:57] Why would you vote? [1:11:58] You have no tax on social security [1:12:00] for our seniors. [1:12:02] Why? [1:12:03] No tax on tips. [1:12:04] Why would you vote against that? [1:12:06] But they voted against. [1:12:07] And you know, [1:12:07] it's driven our economy. [1:12:08] Many, many more people. [1:12:10] The overtime is great. [1:12:11] The one that seems to be, [1:12:13] which is your favorite? [1:12:14] Ready? [1:12:15] No tax on tips. [1:12:17] They don't tip farm workers [1:12:21] that much, right? [1:12:23] You're more traditional. [1:12:24] Give me a check, right? [1:12:26] So not a lot of tipping, right? [1:12:28] All right. [1:12:28] No tax on overtime. [1:12:35] No tax on social security [1:12:37] for our seniors. [1:12:41] That's generally the one. [1:12:46] But they voted against voter ID [1:12:48] because they want to cheat. [1:12:49] They voted against proof of citizenship [1:12:52] because they want to cheat. [1:12:54] They voted against securing the border. [1:12:57] They voted, can you believe? [1:12:58] I built the wall 2,000 miles [1:13:00] and they voted against, [1:13:02] we had to build, [1:13:03] we had to use the military. [1:13:04] You couldn't get it. [1:13:05] They wouldn't approve it. [1:13:06] And they've said openly [1:13:07] they're not going to do anything to enhance. [1:13:09] They want to open the wall. [1:13:11] They want to have the people. [1:13:12] We lived in hell. [1:13:14] I'll tell you, [1:13:14] if you were on the Texas border, [1:13:15] if you were in Arizona, [1:13:16] if you were in New America, [1:13:18] what a good name. [1:13:25] You know, I changed the name [1:13:26] of a place called the Gulf of Mexico. [1:13:28] You may have heard. [1:13:32] I changed the name [1:13:33] from the Gulf of Mexico [1:13:36] to the Gulf of America [1:13:37] and people love it. [1:13:44] And I also changed the name [1:13:46] of a beautiful lake [1:13:47] that fronts a little bit on Okaneda [1:13:49] and we now call that [1:13:52] Lake America. [1:13:54] I wouldn't say [1:14:00] the Canada and Mexico [1:14:01] are thrilled. [1:14:02] The Mexican president called me. [1:14:05] She said, [1:14:05] no, no, no. [1:14:06] Tell me it's not true. [1:14:08] Please. [1:14:08] She's a beautiful woman, [1:14:09] a very elegant, [1:14:10] beautiful voice all the time. [1:14:12] I say, [1:14:12] you have such a beautiful voice. [1:14:14] No, no, no, president. [1:14:15] Please, please tell me [1:14:17] it's not true. [1:14:18] No, no, it's true. [1:14:19] It is true. [1:14:19] Excellent. [1:14:20] That's the Gulf of America. [1:14:21] You know, [1:14:22] we have 93% of the front [1:14:24] and they have 7%, [1:14:25] so it never made sense [1:14:26] to me, Tim. [1:14:27] They voted in favor [1:14:28] of the worst inflation. [1:14:31] And by the way, [1:14:31] speaking of that, [1:14:33] so we have, [1:14:34] right now, [1:14:34] we really have a straight. [1:14:35] I'm thinking about [1:14:36] calling the straight, [1:14:37] the Homo straight, [1:14:37] the Trump straight. [1:14:38] I think the Arabs [1:14:39] would be right. [1:14:47] How do you think [1:14:48] Abdul El-Sayed [1:14:50] would feel about that? [1:14:51] He would be thrilled. [1:14:52] He would be thrilled for, [1:14:54] he would be thrilled [1:14:55] for our country, [1:14:56] wouldn't he? [1:14:56] No, but we have a lake, [1:15:01] Great Lake. [1:15:02] Wow. [1:15:03] One of the five Great Lakes. [1:15:05] And we have a gulf. [1:15:07] Now I need an ocean [1:15:08] and a river. [1:15:09] So I was thinking [1:15:11] about the Hudson River, [1:15:13] but I don't think [1:15:14] I can get away. [1:15:15] Then I was thinking [1:15:15] about how about [1:15:16] the Mississippi, [1:15:17] the mighty Mississippi, [1:15:18] but we won Mississippi [1:15:19] by 38 points. [1:15:21] I don't think I'm going [1:15:21] to do that one, [1:15:22] right, Ashley? [1:15:23] I don't think Ashley [1:15:24] will approve that one. [1:15:25] So we're looking [1:15:27] for a river, [1:15:28] but the two that I really [1:15:29] like are the [1:15:30] Mississippi and the Hudson. [1:15:32] And I don't have [1:15:33] the courage to do this. [1:15:34] I think they're safe. [1:15:35] But we're also looking [1:15:36] for an ocean. [1:15:37] And the only two [1:15:38] that qualify, [1:15:39] because I always like [1:15:39] the biggest and the best. [1:15:41] So the only two [1:15:41] that qualify, [1:15:42] the Atlantic Ocean [1:15:43] and the Pacific Ocean. [1:15:44] And I think if I said [1:15:46] ocean, well, let's see. [1:15:51] Well, the ocean [1:15:53] of the Americas. [1:15:55] I don't like it's too long. [1:15:57] The American Ocean. [1:15:58] Oh, the American Ocean. [1:16:00] And let's say, [1:16:02] ladies and gentlemen, [1:16:02] I'm pleased to announce [1:16:03] that on Monday morning [1:16:05] we'll be changing [1:16:05] the name of the Atlantic Ocean [1:16:07] to the American Ocean. [1:16:09] How do you think [1:16:14] our friends in Europe? [1:16:16] I actually called up [1:16:18] Sundar from Google. [1:16:20] You know, [1:16:20] Google Maps is a big deal. [1:16:21] You get it on Google, [1:16:22] but it's done. [1:16:23] But I called up Sundar. [1:16:26] So I got the lake [1:16:26] and I got the Gulf. [1:16:28] They said, Sundar, [1:16:29] I was only kidding. [1:16:31] I have a new one. [1:16:31] I actually sent him [1:16:32] a picture of the Atlantic Ocean [1:16:34] called the American Ocean. [1:16:35] And he actually called me [1:16:37] and he said, [1:16:37] sir, this has to stop. [1:16:40] He said, [1:16:41] this has to stop. [1:16:42] He thought I was, [1:16:43] you know, [1:16:43] I was just kidding. [1:16:45] But that would be [1:16:47] a tough one. [1:16:47] But you never know [1:16:49] in life, do you? [1:16:50] In favor of [1:16:50] transgender mutilization, [1:16:53] that's these people [1:16:54] that you're thinking about [1:16:56] maybe voting for. [1:16:57] But they want to do [1:16:58] all of those things. [1:16:59] On election night, [1:17:00] I was going to prove [1:17:01] that America does not [1:17:03] belong to those who hate it. [1:17:05] America belongs to [1:17:06] those who love it. [1:17:07] And that's you. [1:17:10] And Ashley Henson [1:17:11] is all that stands [1:17:13] between the people of Iowa [1:17:15] and communists [1:17:16] controlling the United States. [1:17:18] That one vote is just like, [1:17:20] I can't tell you [1:17:21] how important, [1:17:22] which they'll use [1:17:23] to open your borders [1:17:24] and set loose criminals [1:17:25] into your country [1:17:26] and destroy your second amendment. [1:17:28] They want to take away, [1:17:29] you know, [1:17:29] they want to pack the court. [1:17:30] They want to expand [1:17:31] the Supreme Court [1:17:32] for a very specific reason [1:17:35] in order to knock out [1:17:37] your second amendment. [1:17:38] I've been fighting [1:17:38] for the second amendment. [1:17:40] We haven't touched it. [1:17:41] And if you think [1:17:42] that wasn't easy, [1:17:43] and Tim Scott [1:17:44] has been helping. [1:17:45] That is not one [1:17:46] of our easy chores, [1:17:47] is it? [1:17:47] But Ashley has an A rating [1:17:50] from the NRA [1:17:51] and is endorsed [1:17:51] by the Iowa Farm Bureau. [1:17:55] And frankly, [1:18:00] she's always calling me [1:18:01] and asking me [1:18:02] for things like for Iowa. [1:18:03] Sir, could you give [1:18:04] a little bit more money [1:18:05] to the farmers? [1:18:06] I said, [1:18:06] this woman is such a pain. [1:18:09] But ultimately, [1:18:10] that's nice, I guess. [1:18:12] But no, [1:18:12] she's a fantastic woman. [1:18:14] She's going to be great. [1:18:15] She's replacing somebody [1:18:16] who's been a fantastic friend. [1:18:18] Joni, thank you very much. [1:18:19] You've been a fantastic friend. [1:18:21] So Ashley, [1:18:22] come on up, please. [1:18:23] Hey, Iowans. [1:18:34] We are ready [1:18:35] to make sure [1:18:36] we do not send [1:18:37] Josh Turek [1:18:38] to the U.S. Senate [1:18:39] in 12 days, aren't we? [1:18:40] We're going to make sure [1:18:41] he doesn't get that promotion. [1:18:44] The president [1:18:45] already said it, right? [1:18:46] But Josh Turek's record [1:18:47] is too liberal for Iowa. [1:18:49] He wants illegal immigrants [1:18:50] to have those benefits. [1:18:51] He wants asylum [1:18:52] in this country. [1:18:53] He's talked about it. [1:18:53] He wants our kids [1:18:55] to be able to change [1:18:55] their pronouns at school. [1:18:57] So there's never [1:18:57] a good time [1:18:58] to elect a tax-and-spend [1:18:59] liberal to the U.S. Senate. [1:19:01] Now would be the worst time. [1:19:02] We're going to keep Iowa red [1:19:03] and keep Iowa Iowa. [1:19:05] Thank you so much. [1:19:06] And by the way, [1:19:19] Chuck Grassley [1:19:19] is here someplace. [1:19:20] I want to just say [1:19:21] thank you. [1:19:22] That's such, [1:19:22] he's great. [1:19:23] We took a picture backstage [1:19:24] and it was great [1:19:25] with his beautiful wife. [1:19:27] Thank you, Chuck, [1:19:28] wherever you may be. [1:19:29] Thank you. [1:19:30] Thank you very much. [1:19:31] You also need to defeat [1:19:34] radical Democrat [1:19:36] Rob Sand. [1:19:37] He's a disaster for government. [1:19:41] And by the way, [1:19:41] he wants to raise your taxes [1:19:43] by $7,500. [1:19:45] He wants to take away [1:19:46] your guns [1:19:47] and your Second Amendment. [1:19:48] He's in favor [1:19:49] of transgender mutilization. [1:19:52] And your borders [1:19:53] will be wide open [1:19:54] for criminals [1:19:55] to pour into [1:19:56] just like they did [1:19:56] just a couple of years ago. [1:19:59] That's not going to happen [1:20:00] with your men. [1:20:01] You need to go vote [1:20:02] for a businessman [1:20:03] who will cut [1:20:04] your property taxes [1:20:05] very substantially, [1:20:06] lower your gas prices, [1:20:08] support our police [1:20:09] and keep criminals [1:20:10] behind bars. [1:20:11] Your next governor, [1:20:13] Zach Lane. [1:20:14] Thank you all, [1:20:28] Mr. President. [1:20:29] Thank you for coming [1:20:29] to Iowa. [1:20:30] Thank you. [1:20:31] Let me just tell you [1:20:34] something. [1:20:35] Let me tell you [1:20:35] why we're thankful [1:20:37] for this. [1:20:38] Because this president [1:20:39] has been fighting [1:20:40] to preserve the culture [1:20:41] of the United States [1:20:42] of America. [1:20:43] That's why. [1:20:43] Fighting for voter ID, [1:20:48] fighting to secure [1:20:50] the border, [1:20:50] fighting to protect [1:20:52] and defend [1:20:52] the United States [1:20:53] of America [1:20:53] so it doesn't become [1:20:54] France, [1:20:55] so Iowa does not [1:20:56] become Minnesota [1:20:57] or Illinois. [1:20:58] We are here [1:20:59] to defend the culture [1:21:00] of the United States [1:21:02] of America [1:21:02] and Donald Trump [1:21:03] is defending [1:21:03] that culture. [1:21:11] But, Mr. President, [1:21:12] I'm running against [1:21:13] a weird one. [1:21:14] He's a guy who [1:21:15] after college [1:21:17] became an underwear model. [1:21:18] Did you know this? [1:21:19] He didn't know this. [1:21:20] He didn't know it. [1:21:22] It's true. [1:21:22] It's true. [1:21:24] He supports [1:21:25] all the things [1:21:26] you said, [1:21:26] gun control. [1:21:28] Transgender surgeries. [1:21:29] Giving illegal immigrants [1:21:30] benefits. [1:21:31] Wants to give them [1:21:32] our tax dollars. [1:21:33] Look, we are here [1:21:35] to defend Iowa. [1:21:36] That's why all of you [1:21:37] are here. [1:21:38] And my promise to you [1:21:39] is that I'm going to [1:21:40] defend the culture [1:21:40] of this state [1:21:41] and defend your children [1:21:43] and grandchildren [1:21:44] against this craziness. [1:21:45] Thank you all [1:21:46] for being here. [1:21:55] Thank you very much, [1:21:56] Zach. [1:21:57] And part of that culture, [1:21:58] Zach, [1:21:58] is that we're going [1:22:00] to keep Iowa number one. [1:22:02] You're going to be [1:22:02] in number one place. [1:22:04] When you go [1:22:04] like that, [1:22:05] you're going to get out [1:22:06] and vote. [1:22:07] Because to me, [1:22:07] that's a part of the culture. [1:22:08] It's been, you know, [1:22:09] there's that movement [1:22:09] to move you back, [1:22:12] way back, [1:22:13] and it's not happening. [1:22:14] So we're going to keep you [1:22:15] number one. [1:22:15] That really is a part of culture [1:22:17] as far as I'm concerned, [1:22:18] political culture. [1:22:18] You also need to vote [1:22:20] for Joe Mitchell [1:22:21] for the second [1:22:22] congressional district. [1:22:24] And Chris, [1:22:26] you know what? [1:22:26] Come on up here, fellas. [1:22:28] Chris McGowan here [1:22:29] in the fourth district. [1:22:30] And Brenna Byrd [1:22:31] from Iowa, [1:22:32] Attorney General, [1:22:33] has been my fan [1:22:34] and my, [1:22:35] we love Brenna, [1:22:36] right? [1:22:37] Such an early endorsement. [1:22:38] And again, [1:22:40] I want to thank [1:22:40] Chuck Grassley. [1:22:41] He's been great. [1:22:42] I want to thank Chuck [1:22:43] and I want to thank [1:22:44] Joni [1:22:45] and I want to thank [1:22:45] Tim Scott [1:22:46] for being here [1:22:47] from South Carolina [1:22:47] because he's great. [1:22:49] And you met Paul Perez [1:22:55] and he's like, [1:22:56] just, [1:22:56] you don't find a better [1:22:57] human being, [1:22:58] a man. [1:22:58] He's fantastic. [1:22:59] And we have [1:23:00] Representative Rick Crawford [1:23:02] here. [1:23:03] Come on up, Rick. [1:23:03] You got to come up. [1:23:04] You're so good. [1:23:06] Come on up. [1:23:08] Iowa GOP Chair [1:23:09] Jeff Kaufman. [1:23:10] Jeff, thank you. [1:23:11] Great job. [1:23:11] Your son is fantastic. [1:23:14] My friend, [1:23:15] the first one [1:23:16] to endorse me [1:23:16] in the whole United States, [1:23:18] he's, [1:23:18] I call him the Marlboro man. [1:23:19] He's this handsome guy. [1:23:21] His handsome guy. [1:23:22] Senator Brad Zahn, [1:23:24] where's Brad? [1:23:25] The Marlboro man. [1:23:26] Look at him. [1:23:27] He looks so good. [1:23:29] Everyone wants [1:23:30] to look like that. [1:23:31] He's like the Marlboro man. [1:23:34] Senators, [1:23:34] state senators, [1:23:35] Lynn Evans [1:23:36] and Kevin Allons. [1:23:38] Thank you very much [1:23:39] for being here. [1:23:44] And State Representative [1:23:45] Brooke Bowden. [1:23:47] Thank you, Brooke, [1:23:47] wherever you may be. [1:23:48] There you are. [1:23:49] Hi, Brooke. [1:23:49] Thank you. [1:23:51] And the chairman [1:23:52] of the Export-Import Bank, [1:23:54] a real brilliant guy, [1:23:57] John Yovanovitch. [1:23:58] Where's John? [1:24:00] John Yovanovitch. [1:24:01] He has done some job. [1:24:05] And the RNC chairman, [1:24:07] Joe Gruters, [1:24:08] who's a powerful guy [1:24:09] who's, [1:24:10] you're going to have, [1:24:11] I think you're going to have [1:24:12] a great November 3rd. [1:24:14] And former Iowa Hawkeyes linebacker, [1:24:17] Zach Tweet. [1:24:19] Boy, oh boy. [1:24:20] This guy is [1:24:21] in seriously good shape. [1:24:23] I said, [1:24:24] who the hell is that guy? [1:24:25] I didn't ask that with you. [1:24:26] I didn't ask that with you. [1:24:27] I said, [1:24:28] who the hell was that guy? [1:24:29] He came in and shook my hand. [1:24:31] That's central casting. [1:24:32] Was he a very good player, [1:24:33] I guess? [1:24:34] I would think so. [1:24:35] Physically, [1:24:36] I would think he had no problem. [1:24:38] But thank you very much, [1:24:40] Zach. [1:24:40] We appreciate it. [1:24:41] Very good. [1:24:41] I heard you had a great career. [1:24:42] Everyone here today [1:24:43] is part of the greatest movement [1:24:45] in the history of our country. [1:24:46] And it's an honor [1:24:47] to be with these people. [1:24:49] I'd like to maybe ask [1:24:50] a couple of them [1:24:51] and maybe I'd ask [1:24:52] you have something, [1:24:53] I think. [1:24:58] Well, Mr. President, [1:24:59] this is far larger [1:25:00] than any No Kings rally [1:25:02] I've ever seen. [1:25:03] Isn't that true? [1:25:08] Mr. President, [1:25:09] you've won the state [1:25:10] three times [1:25:11] and judging by this crowd, [1:25:12] you've won it a fourth time [1:25:13] if you ran again, okay? [1:25:14] I think so. [1:25:19] You went to D.C. [1:25:20] to clean up Biden's mess [1:25:22] and finally, [1:25:23] it's a respectable city, [1:25:24] it's a safe city, [1:25:25] and it's finally [1:25:26] a clean city. [1:25:27] Can we admit that? [1:25:31] Thank God [1:25:32] you're building the ballroom. [1:25:34] Thank God [1:25:34] you're getting rid [1:25:35] of those awful bike lanes, [1:25:36] by the way. [1:25:37] We don't ride bicyclists tonight. [1:25:39] We ride Harley-Davidson's. [1:25:40] Isn't that true? [1:25:43] This gentleman up here, [1:25:44] he's not riding a bicycle, [1:25:45] more than all of you. [1:25:46] He's riding a Harley. [1:25:47] So I wanted to say, [1:25:48] Mr. President, [1:25:49] for the last 10 years, [1:25:51] you kept this country [1:25:52] more safe [1:25:53] than any other president [1:25:55] ever, ever. [1:25:57] And they've never given you [1:26:03] the Nobel Peace Prize, [1:26:04] by the way, [1:26:05] which is a disgrace. [1:26:07] So what I came up with, [1:26:08] Mr. President, [1:26:09] is a new award. [1:26:10] It's called [1:26:11] the Man of the Century Award, [1:26:14] okay? [1:26:14] It's the Man of the Century Award. [1:26:17] And I'm going to hold this up [1:26:19] for the artificial media to see. [1:26:22] CNN, zoom in right here, CNN. [1:26:24] Okay? [1:26:25] Because this man [1:26:26] has been more for humanity [1:26:29] and for America [1:26:30] than any other president ever. [1:26:33] Thank you, Mr. President, [1:26:34] for being here. [1:26:35] Thank you for supporting Iowa. [1:26:37] And thank you for being [1:26:38] the greatest president [1:26:39] we've ever had. [1:26:40] Just want to say [1:26:54] as a hometown kid [1:26:57] how proud I am [1:26:59] to call Sioux City, Iowa [1:27:01] and the Siouxland tri-state region [1:27:04] of Iowa, Nebraska, [1:27:05] and South Dakota [1:27:06] my hometown. [1:27:08] And I'm enormously pleased [1:27:18] with this evening's turnout. [1:27:21] It's gone a little bit late. [1:27:23] But folks, [1:27:24] if we show this enthusiasm [1:27:26] between now [1:27:27] and through November 3rd, [1:27:29] we're going to keep [1:27:31] Iowa red. [1:27:32] And that's the commitment [1:27:33] that we need to make [1:27:35] to President Donald J. Trump. [1:27:37] Well, you're pretty tall here, [1:27:46] Mr. President. [1:27:47] Hold on here. [1:27:47] I got a short one [1:27:48] coming up here. [1:27:50] So I want to say this, [1:27:52] Mr. President, [1:27:52] thank you so much [1:27:53] for coming to Iowa. [1:27:54] When you came here [1:27:56] four years ago [1:27:57] when I was running [1:27:57] against a 40-year [1:27:59] Democrat incumbent, [1:28:00] your visit to this part [1:28:01] of the state [1:28:02] made the difference. [1:28:03] Thank you. [1:28:04] Because we know [1:28:05] when Western Iowa [1:28:06] turns out, [1:28:07] we win, don't we? [1:28:08] We win. [1:28:08] And thank you, [1:28:16] President Trump, [1:28:17] for supporting [1:28:17] our law enforcement, [1:28:19] our brave men and women [1:28:20] who keep us safe. [1:28:21] Thank you. [1:28:22] And let me end with this. [1:28:29] Vote early, [1:28:30] not often, [1:28:31] or you're going to hear [1:28:32] from me as a prosecutor, [1:28:33] okay? [1:28:34] Thank you. [1:28:42] Thank you. [1:28:43] Great people. [1:28:43] I work with them. [1:28:45] I work with them [1:28:45] and they are fantastic. [1:28:47] So, as you can see, [1:28:49] we're doing really well [1:28:50] and I thought I'd do [1:28:51] something which is [1:28:52] a little unusual, [1:28:53] but we'll put up [1:28:54] two quick charts [1:28:55] that will play for you [1:28:57] and they're done by CNN. [1:28:58] So it means a lot [1:28:59] because they never [1:28:59] do anything good. [1:29:01] And you'll see [1:29:02] what I'm talking about. [1:29:03] Please. [1:29:04] Okay. [1:29:05] MAGA GOP on Trump. [1:29:07] In the 2024 election [1:29:08] versus Kamala Harris, [1:29:09] he got 99% [1:29:10] of the MAGA GOP vote. [1:29:12] Perhaps surprisingly, [1:29:13] I might have thought [1:29:14] it would be 100%, [1:29:15] but it was 99%. [1:29:16] Compare that to his approval rating [1:29:18] now with the MAGA GOP. [1:29:20] It's 98%. [1:29:21] That is, [1:29:22] there's been no real decline [1:29:23] in MAGA support. [1:29:25] These folks say [1:29:26] that they're going to vote [1:29:26] for congressional Republicans [1:29:28] come the midterm elections. [1:29:29] Again, [1:29:30] that's the 99% [1:29:31] that Trump got [1:29:32] against Kamala Harris. [1:29:33] Look now, [1:29:34] in terms of the congressional vote, [1:29:35] 98% of them say [1:29:37] they're going to be voting [1:29:37] for House Republican candidates. [1:29:39] So that support [1:29:40] is actually really [1:29:41] holding up strong. [1:29:42] It's really, [1:29:43] really strong [1:29:44] when it comes to MAGA GOP [1:29:45] and the Republicans [1:29:46] holding on to that vote. [1:29:48] This one. [1:29:49] Okay. [1:29:49] The President Republicans [1:29:51] most admire. [1:29:52] It's Donald Trump. [1:29:53] This is a historic comparison. [1:29:55] A majority of Republicans [1:29:56] say, [1:29:56] 53% say, [1:29:58] he's the Republican president [1:29:59] they most admire. [1:30:00] Ronald Reagan, [1:30:01] who traditionally [1:30:01] has won that much, [1:30:02] Donald Trump [1:30:03] nearly triples up on this. [1:30:05] Reagan at just 18%. [1:30:06] And then Abraham Lincoln, [1:30:08] who by most historic accounts [1:30:10] is the greatest president [1:30:11] of all time. [1:30:12] But Republicans say [1:30:13] that the president [1:30:14] that they most admire [1:30:15] by what is this, [1:30:17] this is six, [1:30:17] seven times as many, [1:30:19] Donald John Trump [1:30:19] at 53%, [1:30:20] easily crushing [1:30:21] Abe Lincoln at 8%. [1:30:23] And the Elon poll [1:30:24] showed that he was [1:30:24] the greatest president [1:30:25] as well. [1:30:25] I feel like this slide [1:30:26] might end up [1:30:27] on a printout [1:30:27] on his desk. [1:30:34] Well, thank you. [1:30:35] And a person is here [1:30:36] who is fantastic. [1:30:39] I want to just say hello [1:30:40] and acknowledge [1:30:41] Senator Tim Scott's wife. [1:30:43] Because he's working [1:30:45] every night. [1:30:45] He follows me around. [1:30:47] So thank you. [1:30:48] Thank you very much [1:30:49] for being here. [1:30:50] Appreciate it. [1:30:51] Beautiful wife. [1:30:53] So in conclusion, [1:30:55] if you elect [1:30:56] a Republican House [1:30:57] and a Republican Senate [1:30:59] on November 3rd, [1:31:00] we will do things for you. [1:31:02] You're going to be [1:31:02] very, very happy. [1:31:03] We will win [1:31:04] our war on corruption [1:31:06] and fraud [1:31:06] and let our great [1:31:08] vice president [1:31:09] keep doing his job. [1:31:10] He's doing a fantastic job. [1:31:12] He's finding billions [1:31:13] and billions of dollars. [1:31:16] We will pass [1:31:17] the No Invasion [1:31:18] of Our Country Act [1:31:19] prohibiting any future [1:31:20] president from ever [1:31:21] opening our border [1:31:22] to illegal immigrants again. [1:31:25] That was an invasion. [1:31:29] That was like [1:31:30] a military invasion. [1:31:31] We're never going [1:31:31] to let that happen again. [1:31:34] We will ban [1:31:35] sanctuary cities [1:31:36] and pass the death penalty [1:31:38] for large-scale [1:31:39] drug dealers, [1:31:40] human traffickers, [1:31:40] and anyone who kills [1:31:42] a police officer [1:31:43] or a member of law enforcement. [1:31:49] And we will pass [1:31:49] voter identification, [1:31:51] proof of citizenship, [1:31:52] and the Save America Act [1:31:54] to defend our [1:31:55] sacred American electorate. [1:32:00] And we will enshrine [1:32:01] in permanent law [1:32:02] no men in women's sports [1:32:04] and no transgender [1:32:05] mutilization of your children. [1:32:11] And ladies and gentlemen [1:32:12] of Iowa, [1:32:14] what a great place. [1:32:16] And I want to thank you [1:32:17] for all the support [1:32:18] you've given me [1:32:18] over the years. [1:32:19] It's incredible. [1:32:20] And I'm giving you [1:32:21] a lot, [1:32:22] and I'll continue. [1:32:23] The golden age [1:32:24] of America is upon us, [1:32:26] but you must go out, [1:32:27] you must vote, [1:32:28] you must vote, [1:32:29] frankly, Republican. [1:32:31] If you're going [1:32:31] to vote Democrat, [1:32:32] don't bother. [1:32:33] Anybody in here [1:32:34] going to vote Democrat, [1:32:35] I wonder. [1:32:36] We've already made [1:32:38] unbelievable progress, [1:32:40] and now we will reach [1:32:41] new levels of greatness. [1:32:42] We will. [1:32:42] We're going to reach [1:32:43] new levels. [1:32:44] There's never been [1:32:45] anything like [1:32:46] what we've done. [1:32:47] It's my honor [1:32:48] to be your president [1:32:49] during such an exciting [1:32:50] period of time [1:32:51] in our country. [1:32:52] And, you know, [1:32:53] we've been doing this [1:32:55] together for, [1:32:57] really together, [1:32:58] it's the same vote. [1:32:58] You see that just now? [1:33:00] The 99, 98, [1:33:02] it's the same vote, [1:33:03] the same great warriors, [1:33:05] the same great people [1:33:06] that built our nation. [1:33:07] But we've been doing it [1:33:08] for 11 years, [1:33:09] and there's never been [1:33:10] anything like it, [1:33:11] and there never will [1:33:11] be anything like it. [1:33:13] It's something the world [1:33:14] has probably never seen [1:33:16] before, [1:33:16] and maybe we'll [1:33:17] never see again. [1:33:18] It's what we've done [1:33:19] together as a group. [1:33:21] I mean, [1:33:21] because it's the [1:33:22] United States of America, [1:33:23] it's not like [1:33:24] a small country, [1:33:25] maybe, [1:33:25] but this is the [1:33:26] United States of America, [1:33:27] and there's never [1:33:28] been anything like it. [1:33:29] So let's go out [1:33:31] and do what we do best, [1:33:32] which is to win [1:33:33] on November 3rd. [1:33:34] We do it the best. [1:33:35] And let's make [1:33:40] the next two years [1:33:41] bigger, better, [1:33:42] and stronger [1:33:43] than ever before, [1:33:45] because we will [1:33:47] make America [1:33:49] powerful again. [1:33:50] We will make [1:33:54] America wealthy, [1:33:56] again. [1:33:57] We will make [1:34:00] America healthy, [1:34:02] again. [1:34:02] We will make [1:34:04] America strong, [1:34:06] again. [1:34:07] We will make [1:34:09] America proud, [1:34:11] again. [1:34:12] We will make [1:34:14] America safe, [1:34:15] again. [1:34:16] And most importantly, [1:34:19] we will make [1:34:21] America great, [1:34:22] again. [1:34:23] Thank you, Iowa. [1:34:24] Thank you. [1:34:25] God bless you all. [1:34:26] Thank you. [1:34:28] Thank you. [1:34:29] Thank you.
