"I said, I'm here for you, sir. I have such respect for you. But he didn't say that. He said, I'm here for my teammate. I said, who's your teammate? He said, it's John Husted. I said, what did you do? You play? What did you do? He said, no, no, he was on my football team. I said, was he any good?..."

[0:00] I said, I'm here for you, sir. I have such respect for you. [0:03] But he didn't say that. He said, I'm here for my teammate. [0:06] I said, who's your teammate? He said, it's John Husted. [0:10] I said, what did you do? You play? What did you do? [0:14] He said, no, no, he was on my football team. [0:18] I said, was he any good? Yeah, he was the best player on the team. [0:21] He's a guy, he's one of the most respected men in Washington already, already. [0:37] He hasn't been there that long. [0:39] He put in the attempt and he, I said, you got to stay. [0:43] You got to stay. But one of the most respected men. [0:45] But I said to John Husted, he said, what do you mean he was a good player? [0:48] He never talks about it. It's because that's the way he is. [0:51] He's not like you, sir. [0:53] Because if I had his football record, they would have thought I was Jimmy Brown or somebody. [1:01] I would have said, I'm the greatest player. [1:04] No, he was like a safety. [1:06] And he had a record number of interceptions, 17. [1:10] He was an All-American football player. [1:12] I didn't know that about John. [1:14] And today I watched him. [1:17] I explained that a week ago. [1:19] By the way, his poll numbers have gone through the rules. [1:21] Because they did. [1:22] Ohio tends to like football. [1:24] But no, he was an All-American football player. [1:27] And when John Groot said he was the best player on the team, [1:30] and I think they were like a championship team, a great team. [1:33] But I just watched him in the plane coming in, ranting and revving. [1:38] He's like become a different man now that we find out he was a great athlete. [1:42] And you know, I have to say, so I was over, I called him up last week, and he was talking. [1:47] I'm standing right over here as I do with candidates, et cetera. [1:50] Because I'm making a lot of stops. [1:52] But this is, I think, about the only one I've met, too. [1:54] That means I like Ohio. [1:55] We have to get perfect, John, and I think they will. [2:02] I think they're going to be a good job. [2:04] But I'm standing over here, and I don't do this with men very often. [2:08] I started examining his body. [2:10] Because I didn't know he was a great athlete. [2:13] And I looked, and I watched up and down, and I looked at his ass, and I looked at the hole. [2:19] And then I looked at his hands. [2:20] Look at his hands. [2:21] He's got these, like, claws. [2:25] And I got it. [2:26] You are a great athlete. [2:27] I didn't know that, because he doesn't talk about that. [2:30] Congratulations. [2:31] Now they finally know. [2:32] That was very good. [2:35] And it was John Bruton. [2:37] You would have never known. [2:40] And you made a great speech. [2:41] He's a fantastic man. [2:44] He's a very respected guy. [2:45] And I want to just wish everybody a very happy Columbus Day. [2:50] I was very much in awe. [2:57] They took that name away from you. [2:59] And we have Columbus, Ohio, and everything else. [3:03] But they took the name away from our country. [3:06] They took it away from, really away from, Italian-Americans. [3:10] And we said, we're not going to let that stand. [3:12] And I said, we're going to win this thing, because we did great the first time. [3:15] We did better the second time. [3:17] But we got rigged. [3:18] It was a rigged election. [3:20] And I said, because of how well we did it, that we've got to do it again. [3:23] And let's figure that any of them, what we're doing is amazing, what we've done with this country. [3:27] Twenty-one trillion dollars is being invested. [3:30] In history, there's never been anything like it for any country. [3:33] China, no country's been drunk. [3:35] But the radical left maniacs, they took the name Columbus, Christopher Columbus, away. [3:47] And they were, they're a disgrace. [3:49] And we have to win, because, we have to keep winning, because they'll do it again. [3:54] They'll do it again. [3:55] Sherrod Brown's daughter voted to rip down the 22-foot statue of Christopher Columbus right in the heart of the city. [4:03] You know that. [4:05] And I didn't know until I came. [4:10] I'm reading some stuff. [4:11] I said, what's with the daughter? [4:12] The daughter ripped it down, and he was totally in favor. [4:15] The daughter of Sherrod Brown is the candidate of the Marxists, the communists, the anti-American radicals who want to tear down America's heritage. [4:24] And you threw him out because he did so badly on inflation. [4:28] The border. [4:29] He was here with the worst border we've ever had. [4:31] The economy. [4:32] The economy was terrible. [4:34] And everything else. [4:35] He was here during a very dark period for our country. [4:38] And he lost to a guy named Bernie Marino. [4:42] Bernie and I. [4:58] I think I helped Bernie. [4:59] I don't know. [4:59] But I think I did. [5:00] But I'll tell you what. [5:01] We endorsed Bernie. [5:03] And we endorsed with the same pervert, John Huston, because he is a fantastic man. [5:09] And he's really the candidate of proud patriots who love our country and our history. [5:19] They love and honor our history. [5:21] And part of that history really is having Christopher Columbus as an American hero. [5:27] You have a particular congressman that really worked with me. [5:30] Where is my congressman? [5:31] There he is. [5:32] Where is he? [5:33] This guy. [5:35] Chris Keats. [5:38] We worked hard together, right? [5:43] He happens to be of Italian heritage, right? [5:48] Slightly. [5:48] Is it 100% or only 95%? [5:52] 22 days from now, Ohio is going to defeat Jared Brown and elect John Huston to the United States. [6:00] We're going to send my very good friend. [6:08] You know, I ran against him and he was not easy. [6:11] He's a very smart guy and he's a very good guy. [6:14] And he loves, he loves the state. [6:15] But he's a friend of mine, Vivek Ramaswamy to the United States. [6:24] Great job. [6:25] He's great. [6:27] He's got a lot of great plans, like cutting taxes all over the place. [6:30] You'll be very happy. [6:31] You're going to be amazed at how good he is, how smart he is. [6:35] And we're going to elect strong Republican majorities in the House and the Senate up and down the line. [6:40] And just look at what happened, really, just recently. [6:44] Murray, a new chart came out today about how your two candidates are doing. [6:50] Take a look. [7:00] Those two lines are what happened since our last rally. [7:04] That's a hell of a difference. [7:06] I wonder if they'll remember when they went into the last slide. [7:09] Will they say, Trump helped? [7:11] Or will they say, we did it without him. [7:13] We did it without him. [7:15] No, those charts are beautiful, right, Bernie? [7:17] Look at that, huh? [7:18] Okay. [7:23] And Bernie, actually, you know, Bernie's a little jealous because he actually took off, too, [7:28] but it was the day before the election. [7:30] We made it just in time. [7:31] Right, Bernie? [7:32] Bernie's been a great Saturday. [7:34] Appreciate it. [7:35] You and my friend have a great Saturday. [7:38] So what happens is every time I run, we do great. [7:42] We have a tremendous turnout, 48, 49 percent more than when I don't run. [7:48] So I'm asking everybody to pretend, to just pretend that I'm on the ballot. [7:52] Because the way I am on the ballot is they will try and destroy everything we've done, [7:58] and the country has never done. [8:00] I had to take a little bit of a veer toward the Islamic Republic of Iran because we could [8:07] not let them have a nuclear weapon. [8:09] And we did stop over in Venezuela in one of the greatest military attacks in history. [8:24] And we paid for the cost of that war about 35 times over. [8:36] And we had not finished yet, but it's been great. [8:39] We've had a great relationship with Venezuela. [8:41] Tremendous, tremendous, the oil coming out of Venezuela. [8:44] We, you remember the expression, drill, baby, drill. [8:48] I didn't expect I'd be saying it all the time. [8:57] And then we did a stopover in Iran and there. [9:01] Old countries, let's put it this way, they're never going to have a nuclear weapon. [9:05] And it's going to end very soon. [9:07] And as soon as it ends, your gasoline comes down. [9:10] But remember, your prices, your gas prices, are lower than when Biden was president. [9:16] And he didn't do anything about Iran, the Islamic Republic of Iran. [9:21] He didn't do anything. [9:22] You cannot let the number one state sponsor of terror have a nuclear weapon. [9:29] And it was my honor. [9:31] And we'll be on that. [9:35] We'll end very soon. [9:36] And as soon as it does, your other prices have all come down because we inherited the worst [9:40] conflation in history from Biden, Sleepy Joe, we inherited, and they're all coming down. [9:47] But oil is always the big one. [9:49] It's the big player. [9:50] And oil is going to be dropping like a rock. [9:53] You know, I was in Iowa and making a speech just the day before. [9:57] I said to my guys, I got them all in a room, all in my cabinet. [10:00] I said, we have no choice. [10:02] We have to do this. [10:02] It should have been done by other presidents for many years, but they didn't do it. [10:07] Obama paid billions and billions of dollars. [10:10] He thought he could buy them. [10:11] That didn't work out. [10:13] Biden was afraid of everybody. [10:15] I don't want to go into all the names. [10:16] There were all many presidents should have done what we did. [10:19] It would have been easier, but it was pretty easy for us because they, right now, they have [10:24] no Navy. [10:25] They have no Air Force. [10:27] They have no anti-aircraft. [10:28] They have the worst inflation of any country, anywhere in the world. [10:34] They have no money. [10:36] They want to make a deal. [10:37] They don't know how to. [10:39] They don't know how to. [10:40] I'll be honest with Russia and Ukraine. [10:44] They want to make a deal, too. [10:45] They don't know how to. [10:46] The hatred is very great between the two leaders, but we're going to get that deal done, too. [10:51] Last month, they lost 32,000 people, mostly soldiers. [10:56] Young, beautiful soldiers lost. [10:58] It's ridiculous, that war. [11:00] So I think they're going to get it done, finally. [11:02] I settled eight wars. [11:03] I thought this would be one of the easier ones, but it's not, because the hatred, you [11:07] know what? [11:08] The hatred between leaders is that heavy and that hot. [11:11] It's a little bit tougher, but we're going to get it done. [11:14] Early voting in Ohio is underway now. [11:16] It goes through Sunday, November 1st, so get out and vote, and you have to. [11:21] You do it November 3rd. [11:22] I don't care how you do it. [11:27] You have to. [11:31] The last time the church around and the radical Democrats had power, they gave us the worst [11:37] inflation in American history, the highest energy prices in American history. [11:43] By the way, much higher than it is now, and we're artificially high. [11:47] It's going to drop like a rock. [11:49] The worst trade deficit in American history. [11:52] They allowed 25 million people to pour across our borders from all over the world. [11:56] They came from prisons. [11:59] They were drug killers. [12:01] They were rapists. [12:02] They were murderers. [12:04] 11,888 murderers. [12:09] Half of whom committed more than one murder. [12:13] And they poured in here totally unchecked, totally unvetted. [12:17] And if they win the midterms, they will do the exact same thing again. [12:20] They're already talking about it. [12:21] Sherrod Brown said two days ago he wants to see open borders. [12:26] He wants to see men playing in women's sports. [12:28] See the transgender mutilization of your children. [12:35] You can't have it, you know, it's one vote, but that one vote can steer Congress into a direction [12:45] that you're not going to be happy with, and it's not Ohio values. [12:49] And we have to do the same thing that Bernie did, and John, he's really up to it. [12:55] He's, uh, I can't tell you, he went there, and a lot of guys go there, and a lot of them [13:00] who aren't that respected, I will tell you, this is a man that's totally respected. [13:03] A lot of, uh, when you have our great senator, where are you? [13:07] When you have Barrasso, one of the deems, when he comes out, senators don't do that. [13:15] You've got Barrasso coming out. [13:16] You've got one of the big shots coming out. [13:20] And, John, you don't do that too often, do you? [13:23] You do that to special people. [13:24] It's very nice to have you too, John Barrasso. [13:27] Senator. [13:28] And if Democrats get the chance, they will immediately reopen our borders and once again [13:36] flood all our cities and towns with migrants from the most corrupt and dangerous places [13:41] on the planet. [13:42] Just look at what's happening in the once-great state of Minnesota, what a mess they have done. [13:50] Somalia, wonderful, wonderful, and that Ilan, somebody was asked before, I don't know what [13:56] they're doing with it, but I can tell you this, she's a disaster. [13:59] She comes in from a country without laws, without police, without military, all they do is shoot [14:05] each other, and she comes into our country, and she says, I have a constitutional right. [14:11] She's got a constitutional right. [14:13] She's telling us about the Constitution, and she comes from one of the worst countries anywhere [14:19] on the planet. [14:20] Last week, savage Somali gang members shot two people in the high school parking lot in [14:26] the middle of a football game. [14:28] Just days later, a few miles away, the FBI arrested a radicalized Somalian who was planning [14:34] to carry out an ISIS-style terrorist attack at the Mall of America, aiming to kill as many [14:41] as possible, in his words. [14:42] This is not what we want in this country. [14:43] We don't want this anymore. [14:44] What they have done. [14:45] Keep going! [14:46] Keep going! [14:47] Keep going! [14:48] Keep going! [14:49] And members of the Somalian community have looted tens of billions of dollars from Minnesota [15:06] welfare programs. [15:07] Here are people. [15:08] They came over here. [15:09] They had nothing. [15:10] They came from a government that doesn't exist. [15:13] They come from a part of the world that only knows how to kill each other. [15:17] All they do is kill each other in the streets. [15:19] Then they come into the United States of America, and they tell us how to run our country. [15:25] And we're not going to stand for it. [15:27] They drive up taxes. [15:28] They drive up healthcare costs, insurance costs, childcare costs. [15:32] And they cheat on everything. [15:34] It's a disaster. [15:35] And we're not going to stand for it. [15:37] We're not going to stand for it. [15:39] That's right. [15:40] And they wrote, you have to vote for Michelle DeFoya, who is a very respected person, [15:45] while we're at, I should say, in two terms. [15:53] It's hard to win, because they cheat on their elections, too. [15:55] You know, I thought I won Minnesota three times. [15:58] I was sure I won it the last time. [16:00] They got me by a whisker. [16:02] It was a rather large drop of votes in the ring about 3 o'clock in the morning, you remember? [16:08] They found them, I don't know where they found them, but uh, [16:13] But that state hasn't been won since 1952. [16:18] They cheat like hell. [16:19] Aside from everything else, they cheat on the elections. [16:22] They have a governor who's grossly corrupt and incompetent. [16:26] To be a Democrat like Sharon Brown, [16:28] you have to believe that Christopher Columbus [16:31] should not be in Columbus, Ohio. [16:38] Paid protests. [16:39] These are paid protests, but they're all paid. [17:08] They get paid by the lefties in order to destroy our country. [17:13] They're scum. [17:15] But he's going back home tomorrow. [17:28] Terrible. [17:30] No, we love law enforcement. [17:32] No, he's got to go on a diet. [17:44] We've got to go on a diet fast. [17:45] We all do. [17:57] They're paid protesters. [17:58] That's a very low-class protest. [18:02] What he doesn't know is that his mother and father voted for me. [18:05] He said, that's right, boy, what's he doing there? [18:17] He looks so terrible. [18:19] And he's going to get home, and he's going to get smacked. [18:24] To be a Democrat like Sharon Brown, [18:26] you have to believe that Christopher Columbus [18:28] should not be in Columbus, Ohio. [18:31] But think that the Midwest should be turned into a vulgar issue. [18:38] That's what he wants, an interesting place. [18:40] You've got to check it out sometime. [18:42] These people are crazy. [18:44] What they want to do to our country, [18:45] you look at the guy running in Michigan, [18:47] he's a jihadist. [18:49] He's a jihadist. [18:52] And you know what bothers me? [18:54] Even the mainstream, but the media gives him so much publicity. [18:59] They give him so much publicity that it's really terrible. [19:03] Running against a very good candidate, a very strong, very good. [19:08] Mike Rogers, very good candidate, but this guy is a jihadist. [19:16] To the Republican Party, we believe that Somalia bandits, [19:20] third-world gangs, these jihadist sympathizers do not belong in Ohio. [19:25] They don't belong in America. [19:27] Better get them the hell out of here. [19:40] A beautiful little town, where they dropped about 35,000 Haitians. [19:50] And I believe it's called Springfield-no-Hair. [19:54] Well, they're being taken out, and they're almost going to be done, [19:59] and we're giving them a call. [20:04] A clean little village of no crime, no problems. [20:09] A beautiful place to live, 32,000 people, never a problem. [20:14] Beautiful little idyllic place. [20:17] All of a sudden, they dropped 35,000 people in from Haiti, [20:23] and it didn't work out too well. [20:25] Remember during the debate, I said some of the things they were doing? [20:28] I was right. [20:29] I won't get into these. [20:32] Remember that? [20:33] I was right. [20:37] And they're getting their town back. [20:39] They're getting their town back. [20:40] That was done by Sleepy Joe Biden and his group. [20:43] Sleepy Joe, Crooked Joe, one of the worst administrations. [20:47] The worst. [20:48] Look, let's have a minute. [20:51] And they want to do it again. [20:52] Sherrod Brown wants to have open borders. [20:55] He wants to have men play in women's sports. [20:59] John Rooney is a great coach at a lot of championship teams. [21:07] John, did you ever have a woman that you were desperate to have [21:10] on one of your championship teams? [21:12] Was there now? [21:14] Sister. [21:15] I don't know. [21:16] Was it even closer? [21:18] How about every once in a while, I'll see a kicker. [21:21] We're going to have a kicker. [21:22] It was a female because they put them on. [21:25] Yeah, we like Sophie Cunningham. [21:26] Let's put them on. [21:27] You'd have a lot of men wanting to go and watch her. [21:35] She's beautiful. [21:36] You're not allowed to say that anymore, however, as a politician. [21:39] Please, please, let me take it back. [21:41] Anytime a politician says a woman is beautiful, that's generally the end of his political career [21:48] in the modern-day politics world, but Sophie is a beautiful young woman. [21:52] You probably wouldn't find her on the team, not to help you with voice, but to help you [21:57] with attendance. [21:58] The attendance would be quick, but if they win Sherrod Brown and Amy Acton, she is horrible. [22:06] She's a radical left lunatic. [22:11] We'll tax you to the day you die, force you to work longer hours for less pay. [22:18] They're going to put the inheritance tax. [22:20] You know, right now, you don't have an inheritance tax. [22:22] I got rid of your inheritance to the farmers and small businesses. [22:24] And the Democrats want that back on. [22:31] They want all the other taxes back on. [22:34] They want it back on fast. [22:36] The inheritance tax where you leave your farm or you leave your small business to your children, [22:42] and it gets valued by the federal government. [22:44] You have to go out and pay a big tax. [22:45] And many of these children go out. [22:48] They want to keep their farm, and they can't. [22:50] They lose it to the banks or whatever it might be. [22:53] And many of them go out and commit suicide. [22:56] You know that. [22:57] And we're not doing that anymore. [22:58] We're not doing so we don't have any inheritance tax or estate tax on your farm or your small business. [23:04] So if you want to leave it to your child, if you love your child, you can leave it. [23:11] If you don't like your child, don't listen to me because it doesn't matter what I just said. [23:16] Does anybody in here not love your child? [23:19] Is there somebody raised their hand? [23:23] Is there anybody in here that would like not to leave their estate to their children? [23:27] Because if you don't want to do that, then what I just said doesn't matter much. [23:31] But if you do, your children will get your estate, get your farm, your small business. [23:39] They won't have to worry about the taxpayer coming in and the bank coming in and loaning them the money [23:44] and taking the farm and watching them suffer and ruin their lives. [23:49] They ruin their lives. [23:50] And the Democrats want to put that back on. [23:53] These people are crazy. [23:54] They're mean. [23:55] They're mean. [23:56] They'll raise your taxes so that aren't these and pillage the state budget and drive around [24:02] in, like in, in, I call it Somaliland, not Somaliland. [24:08] Because actually it's a totally different country. [24:11] Some people like Somaliland. [24:12] There's nothing to do. [24:13] You know that. [24:14] There's nothing to do. [24:15] I said, you've got to be kidding. [24:17] I think they should change the name immediately. [24:20] But they like, they think they're in Somalia when they don't have pants to wear. [24:25] They come here, they go on BMWs and Mercedes. [24:29] And they like that. [24:30] Somalia, they love Mercedes. [24:33] They come in, they have nothing. [24:34] And they're the number one buyers of Mercedes Benz and BMWs in the state of Minnesota. [24:40] The whole thing is crazy. [24:42] It's crazy. [24:43] Low IQ people, if you want to stop Ohio from being plundered, ransacked, and destroyed [24:50] like Minnesota is being destroyed, we're going to stop it. [24:54] Just like we did with Springfield. [24:56] We're going to stop it. [24:56] We're not going to stop it. [24:58] But if you want to stop it before it begins, vote for John Yuset and vote for Vivek Ramaswamy. [25:08] You've got to vote. [25:09] Less than two years ago, the radical left Democrats handed us the dark age. [25:20] It was a dark age. [25:22] We were laughed at all over the world. [25:24] They thought we were stupid people. [25:26] But now we quickly turned it into the golden age of America. [25:29] There's never been a time like this. [25:31] There's never been a time. [25:33] We've never had a time. [25:35] Remember, I inherited the highest prices and the worst inflation. [25:38] And the first day I came into office, it was January 20th. [25:44] The next day, I had a news conference. [25:47] And they were screaming at me about affordability. [25:52] They said, what's affordable? [25:53] What are you talking about? [25:54] Affordability, the prices are too high. [25:56] I said, I've only been president for one day. [25:59] And they brought up eggs, because eggs were five times higher than they were in my administration. [26:06] And I said, well, what's the problem? [26:08] Eggs are too high. [26:10] They said, this is my second day. [26:13] And it wasn't a full 24 hours. [26:15] It was like a lot less than that. [26:17] And they started the fake news. [26:18] Look at all of them back there. [26:19] It's a lot of fake news. [26:21] And hence the word affordability. [26:27] Every time I go out, you know, we're bringing prices way down. [26:32] But every time I go out, the fake news goes affordability. [26:36] Meaning like, I'm causing high prices. [26:38] No, I'm bringing the high prices down that they caused. [26:42] And if a guy like Sherrod Brown gets in, he was there. [26:44] He was one of the guys that destroyed, almost destroyed our heads. [26:48] He was very proud. [27:13] What flag was that? [27:15] Was that the Palestinian flag? [27:17] You know what I like the best? [27:21] I should say this. [27:22] Should I? [27:23] Yes. [27:24] The one I like the best is gays for Palestine. [27:32] Gays for Palestine. [27:33] You know what they do when it happened to begin? [27:35] They throw you off the top of a building. [27:38] That's the one I like the best. [27:40] Gays from Palestine. [27:41] They throw you. [27:42] They bring you to the top of the tallest building they have, which isn't too tall, by the way. [27:47] It doesn't have to be. [27:48] They push you off the top of the building. [27:50] And yet, I see all the time gays from Palestine about women from Palestine. [27:56] They treat them almost as badly. [27:59] But our nation is doing better now than ever before. [28:02] But the fake news media refuses to talk about our record-setting numbers tonight. [28:07] So if you don't mind, I will tell you about them myself. [28:11] Do you mind? [28:12] Mr. Wall. [28:13] By the way, I love these guys. [28:19] They've been to like 700 rallies or something crazy. [28:22] These are the Front Row Joes and Mr. Wall. [28:24] The Front Row, and they're successful. [28:32] I don't know what the hell they do, but they're successful people. [28:34] They travel all over the planet. [28:36] They travel all over the country. [28:38] And if I go to London, they're there too. [28:40] I don't know where the hell they get all this money. [28:42] And then you have Mr. Wall. [28:43] I'm going to, someday I'm going to buy that suit and wear it. [28:45] I think in my last speech, I'll wear that suit. [28:50] Is Mr. Wall considered a Front Row Joes? [28:52] I think he should be. [28:54] Right. [28:55] And he's a very successful guy. [28:57] He's a very successful guy. [28:58] I said, what do you do? [28:58] I almost fell off my chair or whatever. [29:01] But he's a smart guy. [29:02] He knows that what we're talking about is just fact. [29:05] You know, communism has never worked for thousands of years under different names. [29:11] It's never worked, never worked. [29:12] Socialism has never worked. [29:14] None of that stuff has never worked. [29:16] The thing that works is what we're doing. [29:17] We have the most successful country we've ever had. [29:20] But they don't want to talk. [29:21] So I'm going to say, it was just announced that under Republican leadership, that's me, [29:28] income for hardworking Americans has soared, think of it, the income for a person, [29:34] average income for a person has soared to the highest level ever recorded, by far. [29:41] And more Americans — I mean, these are things — you know, I could go into it, [29:50] but these are things you can't meet. [29:52] Listen, more Americans are working today than at any time in the history of our country [29:58] and for higher wages than ever before. [30:04] And that's despite the fact — again, we want to make America great — that I, [30:10] unfortunately, got rid of much more than a million federal workers who hated me for doing it. [30:16] But now they love me, because they've all got jobs in the private sector for much more money, [30:24] and they like the job much more than their federal job. [30:27] Think of it, now they like me. [30:29] It took me a little while to figure it out, but now they like me. [30:32] We had 10 workers to do one job. [30:35] You have one job. [30:35] We had 10 workers sitting around to do it. [30:38] So we fired — I fired — whatever we did. [30:41] I don't know what you're going — like The Apprentice. [30:42] You're fired! Get the hell out of here! [30:44] No. [30:45] I didn't do it at all. [30:46] Somebody asked, if you didn't do — we talked about this with Mark Rennett [30:52] against his question a lot — so The Apprentice was one of the top shows ever, [30:57] but it was one of the top shows. It went 14 seasons over 12 years — in other words, [31:03] a couple of seasons that were so good they ran it twice, which is very unusual. [31:06] But it was one — and there's a question out there. [31:10] If I did do The Apprentice — I didn't do it. [31:14] Now, they picked me because I was famous and I was successful, right? [31:17] But if I didn't do The Apprentice, would I be president now? [31:21] I think that. If I didn't do — what do you think? If I didn't do The Apprentice — that [31:29] question is asked because they blame the people that put it on the show. [31:33] They said, you're the one that came in. [31:35] No, it was a tremendous success, but that question is often asked. [31:39] If he didn't do The Apprentice, do you think? [31:41] I think so. You know, I don't know. [31:42] They say they got to know me because you're getting a lot of airtime, [31:46] so maybe they're like, who the hell knows? All I know is we do a good job. [31:49] The poverty rate has just reached its lowest level in the [31:55] history of our country. [31:56] African American poverty, Hispanic American poverty, [32:07] and Native American poverty rates are at their all-time lowest levels ever recorded ever. [32:15] And the stock market just did it again today. [32:22] We have 84 all-time record highs since the election was just a little more than a year and a half ago. [32:31] After years of steel mills and factories closing across Ohio, [32:35] our steel industry is roaring back to life, manufacturing is booming, [32:40] and American exports have soared to the highest level in history. [32:46] Remember when Barack Hussein Obama said we're never going to manufacture again? [32:50] We just set a record for exports. [32:53] In other words, we make a product, and it's a big record. [32:57] And you haven't seen anything with these factories. [32:59] We're building more factories and plants right now than at any time in our history. [33:05] The pharmaceutical business is building hundreds of billions. [33:09] Eli Lilly, Merck, Pfizer, hundreds of billions of plants in the country. [33:15] The auto industry, the auto industry, the, I have to say our new word, what's the word? [33:21] Intelligence. [33:23] It's not artificial anymore. [33:24] It's super-intelligence. [33:26] Super-intelligence. [33:28] And everybody likes it. [33:29] Elon likes it. [33:30] Everybody likes it. [33:31] Everybody likes it. [33:33] No, it's a much more accurate word, because it's not artificial. [33:37] It's real intelligence. [33:38] It may be too strong, actually, but it's super-intelligence. [33:42] That's what it is. [33:43] It's a much better word, much more descriptive word. [33:46] But less than two years ago, and every leader said this, [33:51] but the king of Saudi Arabia said to me, [33:55] a short time ago, sir, your country was dead, [33:58] and now you have the hottest country anywhere in the world. [34:01] We're the hottest country anywhere in the world. [34:03] I mean, think of that. [34:10] Venezuela, in 48 minutes. [34:13] It was all 48 minutes. [34:16] Nobody talks about that. [34:17] They never like to talk about that. [34:19] You know, we were in Vietnam for 21 years. [34:23] We were in Afghanistan for seven or eight years. [34:27] We were in every one of these was eight years, nine years, 10 years, 12 years, 21 years. [34:33] thousands of people killed each time. [34:38] So we've been in Iran, a very powerful country. [34:42] Well, they used to be. [34:43] They're not powerful anymore. [34:45] But a very powerful country. [34:49] And this should have been done long ago by other presidents. [34:52] Why did it have to be me? [34:54] But it had to be me, because they were two weeks away from having a nuclear weapon. [34:59] We knocked that out, those beautiful B-2 bombers that came from Missouri. [35:02] But we are now, think of it. [35:11] We are now, despite four years, we, if Kamala got elected, this country would be dead. [35:19] Instead of having, instead of having $21 trillion coming in, we would have had [35:27] trillions of dollars going out. [35:29] Welfare would have doubled, quadrupled. [35:31] As I tell you what, if you take a look at some of their welfare numbers, [35:35] we were headed down a short road to ruin it. [35:39] This country would have been in ruins if they got in. [35:43] And now these people are even worse. [35:45] For instance, what happened to the 12-year, we're all supposed to be dead, right? [35:50] In 12 years, global warming. [35:51] The planet is warming at a level that they've never seen before. [35:56] It's warming, it's getting so warm out. [35:58] It's a quarter of a degree more than it was 10 years ago. [36:01] I don't think we'll be able to take it in 12 years, according to AOC. [36:07] Remember AOC plus three? [36:08] AOC plus three, who never studied the environment, doesn't know anything about it. [36:14] Remember, she went out and she said, in 12 years, we will all be dead from global warming. [36:22] Well, that didn't happen. [36:23] In fact, we have a lot of cooling and the ice is now bigger than it's ever been for some reason. [36:28] It grew a lot. [36:28] So the word warming didn't work. [36:32] So they didn't want to use the word cooling. [36:34] So what do they do? [36:35] Climate change. [36:36] We have a new term. [36:37] Climate change! [36:38] Climate change is going to destroy the planet. [36:43] Now, climate change means you could get warm, could get cold, could rain, could snow, [36:47] could anything can happen. [36:48] Climate change. [36:50] These people are crazy. [36:51] But it's 12 years, and to the best of my knowledge, I see a packed house. [36:57] I don't see. [36:58] Has anybody passed away? [37:01] Has anybody passed away from global warming? [37:07] That's a con job. [37:08] Just like Russia, Russia, Russia was a con job. [37:10] All a con job. [37:11] We caught them all. [37:12] They're a bunch of crooked guys. [37:14] They're bad people. [37:15] That was a dangerous position to put our country into. [37:18] It's lucky that I have understood it, and Putin understood it. [37:21] No, it's a con job. [37:23] Who's all the fake Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine. [37:25] Remember that fake phone call? [37:27] They said, oh, he said this, he said that. [37:29] It turned out to be just the opposite. [37:31] Very nice and normal call. [37:33] Remember they recorded a totally different call that was made? [37:37] Fortunately, we had, essentially, the call was taped. [37:43] And they said, oh my God, we got problems. [37:45] They said, oh, let's impeach him anyway. [37:47] We were down the line. [37:49] Now, they're all a bunch of terrible people for our country. [37:52] In four long years of Joe Biden and the Biden administration, [37:57] they got less than $1 trillion of new investment in the United States. [38:02] Think of that. [38:02] So in four years, half. [38:05] They got about half a trillion, but less than $1 trillion. [38:08] We got $21 trillion in 15 months. [38:12] They come back. [38:13] Oh, yeah. [38:14] And most of that's going to building new plants. [38:20] Why do you see the numbers that come out? [38:22] You know, they're under construction. [38:23] The construction worker numbers are through the roof, [38:26] because they're building these massive plants all over the country. [38:29] More plants that we've ever even dreamt of. [38:32] More than anybody's ever heard of. [38:35] Kimberly Clark is investing $800 million to build its first new U.S. plant in 37 years. [38:42] Right here in Warren, Ohio. [38:50] The big steel company, Malarik, is investing $48 million to expand operations. [38:57] Right here in a place called Youngstown. [38:59] Have you heard of it? [39:00] And two months ago, my administration announced a $500 million investment to modernize the [39:10] Cleveland Cliffs in Middletown and the Middletown works. [39:15] Is anyone up here in the Middletown work? [39:17] The steel mill. [39:19] Thank you, Bernie. [39:21] How's the Bernie deal? [39:22] Well, actually, all three of you worked in that company. [39:26] Thank you. [39:27] Today, I'm also pleased to announce that the Department of War has officially selected [39:33] the new home of the U.S. submarine component repair center. [39:37] A big deal that everybody wanted. [39:39] And it's going to be right here in Ohio, in Cleveland. [40:02] This massive 46,000-square-foot facility will manufacture, repair, and maintain key parts [40:08] for virtually all new and existing submarines. [40:11] By the way, we make the greatest submarines anywhere in the world. [40:15] We're 15 years ahead of number two, which is Russia. [40:19] But they are number two. [40:20] But we are way ahead. [40:21] Nobody makes submarines. [40:23] It's the most powerful weapon in the world, actually, by far. [40:26] And you have to really thank Senator John Eustadt for this more than probably anybody else. [40:31] John fought for Ohio. [40:37] He fought for — stand up. [40:38] That was your deal. [40:40] Stand up, John. [40:42] John fought for Ohio. [40:44] I'm telling you, I never saw that. [40:55] I never studied him. [40:56] And now I study him. [40:58] I say, why was he such a good football? [41:00] Look at that John Eustadt. [41:03] But Senator Eustadt and Senator Moreno also brought to my attention that [41:07] steam-powered heat utility that provides heating for 24 major buildings in Youngstown [41:14] is in danger of shutting down as we enter the cold season. [41:17] So tonight I'm pleased to announce that I am directing the Department of Energy and Commerce [41:23] to work with your senators to find a quick solution and make sure it doesn't shut down. [41:28] It's going to stay open. [41:30] And you're going to stay nice and warm. [41:32] You're doing so well under Republican leadership. [41:55] This is really, I think, one of the most important things for the university. [41:59] That only I can make this promise to you. [42:03] If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate, [42:06] I am going to give all adult citizens in the United States $5,000 a piece. [42:13] Only Republicans can do that because Democrats are unable to do it because [42:35] we're taking in, as Republicans, massive amounts of money through tariffs [42:40] that are record-setting economic success that you've been seeing and reading about. [42:45] But the Democrat policies won't allow this to happen. In fact, the opposite. [42:50] If the Democrats win, you will have an economic depression, the equivalent of 1929. [42:56] Our country's going to go to hell. Your 401 s are going to be worthless. [43:00] And I mean it, too. They are crazy. [43:04] If the Republicans win, you will each have $5,000 in your pocket and economic success [43:10] for our country, the likes of which we have never seen before. [43:15] I wouldn't love to do that. [43:47] You look at polls. Oh, I love those polls. [43:52] And remember, just recently, you know, there's a... [43:55] Oh, well, maybe you won't be able to do it. I always do it. [43:58] Remember, just recently, I gave all members of the United States military $1,776. [44:05] Remember dollars? [44:07] Less, much less than a year. [44:10] Everyone said it couldn't be. [44:13] It was 1775. [44:16] I asked the generals. They said, [44:17] Generals, we just had a big success in Venezuela. [44:21] We just had a big success, a big success in Iran. Look, we wiped out the whole... [44:26] They have no ships. Their ships are gone. Their air force is gone. [44:31] You know, they had 159 ships. [44:33] They're right now resting beautifully at the bottom of the sea every single day. [44:41] And then the fake news will say, Iran is doing strategy. [44:45] You got no ships. They got no nothing. [44:47] They got no leaders, even. That's the problem. [44:49] We might have gone too far with the leaders, [44:50] because we don't know who the hell we're dealing with anymore. [44:53] Nobody wants to be the president of Iran. [44:56] They have roll calls. [44:58] Who would like to be the president? [45:00] Nobody. I don't mind. [45:02] We're having a hard time figuring out who the hell to deal with, to be honest with me. [45:05] I think we went too far, Bernie. [45:07] We could have stopped at level one, level two, and level two and a half was probably going too far. [45:14] But the Trump dividends, though, they all said that you'll never be able to do the 1775. [45:23] And I looked at the number, and I thought there was something weird with the number. [45:27] I said, what is it? [45:28] What does it remind me of 70? [45:31] They put a number so we could do 1775 dollars. [45:36] I said, you know, General, if we can find one dollar more, it'll be 1776, you fool. [45:43] Why didn't you think of it? [45:45] He did think of it, Mr. General. [45:50] But they said, you'll never be able to do it. [45:53] And, Vivek, we got it done, right? [45:55] We got it done. [45:56] Senator, we got it done. [45:58] Everybody. [45:59] John. [46:00] So the Trump dividend, okay, so you know, they like to say, [46:06] oh, you won't do it. [46:07] But what we do do, we get everything. [46:08] They can't do it, because you're going to lose your shirt if they got it. [46:11] And they'll do everything bad, including raising your taxes. [46:14] But the Trump dividend is approximately one trillion dollars. [46:18] That's what the cost is. [46:19] But we have a record setting 21 trillion dollars that's being invested in the country right now [46:24] in just a short period of time. [46:26] Not even, I mean, now it's much more than that. [46:28] That was only as of 15 months. [46:30] But the only caveat of the Trump dividend is that you have to spend [46:35] the money in the United States of America. [46:41] It's recircled. [46:42] It's recycled. [46:46] It's recircled and recycled, actually. [46:50] But the choice is really very simple on this election. [46:53] You can vote for the radical left, Democrat, communist, [46:57] to loot your wealth, raise your taxes by five trillion dollars, [47:01] annihilate your borders. [47:03] When I came in, what borders? [47:06] 25 million illegal aliens were pouring into our country. [47:11] It was an invasion, actually. [47:12] It was no different than the military. [47:14] They were pouring into our country. [47:16] The worst of the worst, in many cases, illegal aliens. [47:19] And they want to give them all amnesty right away. [47:22] They want to give amnesty to everybody that came into our country. [47:26] Or you can defeat the Democrat communists and vote for more money in your pockets, [47:32] bigger paychecks for your families, lower taxes, less crime, booming Ohio factors. [47:38] No amnesty for illegal aliens. [47:41] If you want that, you must vote Republican. [47:45] Just think of what we have accomplished in much less than two years. [48:04] It's really much less. [48:06] We inherited the worst border in American history. [48:11] There's never been a border like that. [48:12] I think no country, no third world country ever had. [48:16] Have you seen it? [48:16] Millions of people just walking in, totally unchecked, totally unvetted, murderers, everything. [48:24] Prisons being emptied into our country. [48:26] Many, many prisons. [48:27] From the Congo to South America, the prisons were all emptied out. [48:32] They poured in. [48:33] We've gotten many of them out. [48:34] We're getting the rest of them out. [48:36] We turned it into the strongest and most secure border in the history of our country. [48:58] In the past 17 months, this is a record. [49:14] Zero illegal aliens have been admitted into the United States. [49:21] And in two years, we achieved the largest stop in violent crime ever recorded. [49:34] You know, crime is down by the largest numbers ever recorded. [49:38] Despite the fact that we allowed all these people in, but we got a lot of those people out. [49:41] We got the worst of the worst. [49:43] We went out of here fast. [49:45] And if you take a look at what we did in Washington, D.C., [49:49] that went from a very dangerous place, three killings a week, if you believe it, in our capital, [49:55] to no killings a week. [49:56] It's a safe place. [49:57] And we cleaned it. [49:58] We disrupted it. [49:59] We opened 80 new monuments, mountains, statues. [50:05] But the murder rate at the lowest level of our country, 125 years. [50:12] Think of it since 1900, before my father was born. [50:17] My father wouldn't like this being brought up. [50:19] He didn't like discussing age. [50:21] But he wouldn't mind this because that was older than my father would have been. [50:25] I had a wonderful father and mother. [50:27] But think of it, 1900, 125 years. [50:32] We have the lowest rate murder rate, 125 years, despite the fact that they allowed very bad people. [50:42] And thanks to a Republican Congress, I signed the great big beautiful bill delivering the [50:49] largest tax cuts in American history, and they want to end it. [50:53] We gave you no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security for our great TV. [50:59] We may invest for car loans tax deductible, but only if the car is made in America. [51:08] We only care about cars made in America. [51:10] And the biggest thing may be, certainly financially, but maybe ever anyway, [51:17] under my most favorite nation agreements on drug prices, [51:21] we went from paying the highest drug prices anywhere in the world to now paying the, [51:26] you'll see it very soon, now paying the lowest drug prices, [51:30] with price differences of 300, 400, 500, 600, and even 700 percent. [51:41] Never happened to me. [51:43] And to do that, I had to get other countries to double and triple price. [51:47] But I said, if you don't do it, I'm going to put tariffs on you, it's going to be a lot worse. [51:51] They would say, no, no, you cannot do that. [51:53] I said, that's all right, just double your drug prices. [51:56] So what happened is they doubled and tripled up, and we came all the way down. [52:00] Nobody else could have done that. [52:02] They didn't even try. Our other presidents, they didn't even try. [52:07] We went from the highest drug prices anywhere in the world, [52:11] sometimes 10 times higher than other countries, 10 times to the lowest prices [52:18] anywhere in the world, all because you have a different president, [52:21] all because you have a different president. [52:23] We abolished all discriminatory diversity, equity, and inclusion policies throughout the country. [52:34] We've got critical race theory and trans, gender, insanity, and mutualization. [52:42] He said, the mutualization of your kids, you know, I talk about it all the time. [52:47] Could you imagine 15, 20 years ago, I'd be up here talking, and I'm saying, [52:52] we will not mutilize your children. [52:56] People would say, what the hell's wrong with them? [52:59] The transgender mutilization of your children, I have to talk about it. [53:04] It's important because, you know, six states, they're crazy what they do. [53:08] They take your kid away. They send him or her back. [53:11] You don't even know what you're getting. [53:13] It's the craziest thing. Minnesota is one of those places. [53:15] Now think of it, or, or allowing men to play in women's sports. [53:22] Can you imagine a 15 years ago, I said, we will not allow men to play in women's sports. [53:28] You're saying, this guy's crazy. What a stupid thing to say. [53:33] But that's part of our thing. I'll tell you, we have a, we have a problem, John. [53:38] We have men to, we want men to allow women to take their place at offensive tackle in the NFL. [53:45] I don't know. I'm not sure how that's going to work out. [53:49] It's not going to work out well. [53:51] No, but can you imagine having to say it? [53:54] If I said it 15, 20 years ago, or maybe even 10 years ago about men playing in women's sport, [54:00] and we will defend women. We are defending women, by the way. [54:05] What they're doing is really demeaning the women. [54:08] And we made English the official language of the United States of America. [54:19] And thanks to our Republican government, we delivered the largest ever investment in the [54:27] United States Armed Forces, over $1 trillion. And frankly, I think we're going to increase [54:32] that a little bit. We're going to look at these people here, these press. [54:35] But they're nice guys. They're just the photographers. They're very nice guys. [54:38] We have a Pulitzer Prize winner here. A couple of Pulitzer Prize winners. [54:42] They're very talented people. I didn't know who the hell was down here. [54:50] That's the only thing wasn't. Where are they coming from? [54:53] I said, watch. I'm immediately looking to guard the stairway. [54:57] Of course, with them, they might end up, all right? They might end up here behind me. [55:01] We achieved more in two years than any other presidency in the history of our country. [55:06] But now, the radical-left Democrats want to burn it all down. [55:11] Every single Democrat in Congress voted against our record tax cuts. [55:15] They voted against no tax on tips. They voted against no tax on overtime. [55:20] And they voted against no tax on Social Security for our great seniors. [55:25] They voted against voter ID. And they voted against proof of citizenship when you vote. [55:32] So why did they do that? Because they want to cheat, okay? [55:38] I saw a guy interviewed a week ago, a congressman, a Democrat. [55:43] He said, why don't you want to have somebody show their voter identification or proof of citizenship? [55:50] Uh, well, uh, uh, it's racist. That's right. That's right. It's racist. [56:01] They come up with more shit. I mean, they're racist. [56:18] They voted against securing our border. They want to have the border open. [56:24] You know, if they get in, they're going to open the border. [56:27] And you're going to have two more states, Washington, D.C., where Republicans get 3% of the vote. [56:34] And Puerto Rico, where Republicans get 4%. So we'll have four more senators. [56:38] They want to have 23 people on the Supreme Court. [56:41] They want to end the Senate. So you guys will be out of the job. [56:44] What are you doing running? You'll be out of the job based on if they want to end the Senate. [56:49] They want to basically destroy our country. And that's what they want to do. [56:53] And if they get in, they will do that. They'll be able to do that. [56:57] You know, if they get in and you have a bad presidential election in the next, [57:02] because we have some very good people, but if you had a bad presidential or one of these lunatics [57:07] get in, you will look at me right now and you will say he's going to be the last Republican [57:16] president in the history of our country. I will be. I will be. I will be the last Republican [57:22] president because they will add about 12 more electoral votes. They'll add more senators. [57:31] They'll add 10 more Congress people approximately. They're going to rig the Supreme Court [57:37] through just a lot of people. I want to put a lot of people. Their real number that they dream of [57:42] is 23. They say 13. Who wants 13? You know, when I build a building, I never have a 13th floor. [57:50] I go 12 to 14. Because nobody wants to be on the 13th floor, okay? And nobody wants to have 13 judges. [57:57] And they don't either. They want to have 23 as their real number. And frankly, we should terminate the [58:03] filibuster and all of this stuff goes away. You terminate the filibuster, you get everything. [58:14] You'll get case law. You'll get stuff that you don't even remember. It'll be so beautiful. [58:20] You'll do it all. And we will never lose an election again because we'll have really good safeguards. [58:25] Or Wall Street. We'll have great safeguards. You'll have voter ID. You'll have proof of [58:30] everything that you want that will be legitimate because they can't win an election without cheating [58:37] because their policy is so bad. Their policies are so stupid. The only way they can win elections [58:43] is to rig the election like they did in 2020. On election night, Ohio is going to prove that America [58:50] does not belong to those who hate it. America belongs to those who love it. Radical left. [58:56] Democrat Sharon Brown spent 52 years in office selling out Ohio. He sold you out. That's why [59:12] your state's popping right now because of a guy named Trump. And our first term was phenomenal. [59:18] You know, we had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We're blowing it away now. [59:22] You'll see that. This state lost, with him, 300,000 manufacturing jobs. That was on his watch. [59:30] He lost 300,000. And this guy wants to be a senator and beat an all-American football player. [59:36] He's an all-American football player. Boy, does that play well in Ohio. When people heard that, [59:45] he didn't even have to be good anymore. When they heard that, your numbers went through the roof. [59:50] Your numbers depends on them. But meanwhile, he requested an earmark of $750,000 to fund [59:58] drag queens to reading stories to children. He wants $750,000 so that drag queens and school can read [1:00:10] to our children. He voted to exclude more than 99 percent of Ohio farmers from farm loans because [1:00:17] they were white. He didn't want white people to get farm loans. Five times he introduced legislation to [1:00:24] let adult men live at battered women's shelters. So he wants adult men to live with battered women. [1:00:33] The guy could be sick. Nine times he voted against the Keystone Pipeline, which would have been [1:00:39] fantastic. We'll get it done. And he voted 10 times in favor of the deadly sanctuary cities that released [1:00:46] illegal alien criminals onto your streets. Do not let Sherrod Brown slither his way back into power. [1:00:52] You threw him out a long time ago. Vote to put Ohio first and keep Ohio first. [1:01:03] Vote to keep America first with Senator John Euston. John, please come on. Come on. [1:01:10] Thank you so much, Mr. President. I'll tell you what. The Youngstown area for decades used to vote [1:01:29] Democrat. And then you ran for office in 2016 and flipped it red forever. Is that right, folks? [1:01:44] And here's the deal, Mr. President. For years, Democrats had promised the people of the Youngstown [1:01:49] area that they would solve their problems, but instead they made them worse. They shipped their steel [1:01:54] jobs overseas. They shipped their autos jobs overseas. They closed power plants that harmed the people [1:02:00] of the Mahoney Valley, and they were let down time and time again when Barack Obama said manufacturing [1:02:06] jobs aren't coming back. When Joe Biden told coal miners that they should get programming jobs, [1:02:12] and all of the things that we know hurt people right here in the Mahoney Valley. And worst of all, [1:02:18] when Sherrod Brown and Barack Obama did the auto industry bailout for the corporations, [1:02:24] they left our Delphi burgers behind. They took their pensions. And Mr. President, you well know, [1:02:31] I have legislation to fix this, and you promised to sign it. And for once and for all, we're going to [1:02:35] keep a promise, aren't we? Mr. President, I'll end with this. People for the longest time said that we [1:02:51] could not restore the glory of this great manufacturing state, the state of Ohio. And I want you to know, [1:02:58] that I just looked this statistic up before I came. Since you were restored as president of the United [1:03:05] States last year, Ohio has added 10,000 manufacturing jobs, many of them right here in eastern Ohio and [1:03:16] northeast Ohio. And Mr. President, you helped bring this region back in this state to prominence. And I'll [1:03:23] tell you what, we are going to do everything that we can to win on November 3rd. And you're going to bring it home with us, aren't you? [1:03:30] It's changed since you all learned how great an athlete he was. I just, I just hit him in the back and I hurt my [1:03:59] hand in it. It was like a piece of steel. You're right about that. Greatest, one of the greatest coaches in [1:04:05] America. Coach, you're right about that. You're right about that. Great. We want him, we want him as our senator. Respected by [1:04:13] everybody. And also, I want to bring up Vivek, because I know so well that he is a great friend of mine. [1:04:20] I want to thank Mr. Trump or President Trump for being here. And you know, President Trump, I don't [1:04:39] know if you know this, but we didn't talk about this last time. The woman I'm running against actually [1:04:45] refuses to show up for a debate with me. I think you know something about that. But the truth of the [1:04:52] matter is, problems that we still need to fix and we're going to keep fixing in Ohio, like the property [1:05:02] taxes, like other issues that I'm going to help you address. We're going to bring down those property taxes. [1:05:07] I do want to take a moment with this U.S. President behind me to say something we often skip. We often [1:05:16] skip the step of gratitude. And I say this as the father of three young kids. I've got a six-year-old, [1:05:26] a four-year-old, and an eight-month-old at home. Thank you. And I say this proudly with standing on the [1:05:37] stage with the 45th and 47th President of the United States. There is no other country on planet [1:05:45] earth where I would rather be raising those kids. There is no other time in American history when I [1:05:52] would rather be raising those kids. And for that, Mr. President, I want to tell you thank you. We [1:05:59] have the lowest unemployment rate ever. We have a growing economy. We have the lowest poverty rate [1:06:05] ever. We have so much to be grateful for, so much to still yet build on, that when I'm the governor [1:06:13] of this state, when you elect me on November 3rd as your next governor, and I trust you to do that, [1:06:19] Ohio. We love you and we believe in you. I pledge to you this. I will be a governor who proudly works [1:06:30] with the President of the United States of America to bring more dollars into Ohio, to bring higher [1:06:37] paying jobs to Ohio, to put more money in your pockets so that Ohio's best days and serve through [1:06:45] Ohio America's best days are still actually yet ahead of us. Thank you Youngstown. God bless you and your [1:06:52] families and may God bless our United States of America. Thank you, President Trump. Thank you, [1:07:09] Vivek. Vivek is running against a total lunatic named Amy Acton. You shut down Ohio schools during [1:07:17] COVID, locked up your factories and your businesses. You made your life miserable and she'd all do it [1:07:23] again. She would do it again in a second. She said she'd do it again. Now Amy Acton is trying to [1:07:29] double your state income tax. She wants to kill you jobs. She wants to demolish your factories, [1:07:35] crush your drips. She wants to take away your guns. She wants to get rid of the Second Amendment. [1:07:40] Everybody needs to get out and vote for Vivek. And also, you need to get out and vote and reelect for [1:07:47] Congressman Mike Rooley and Congressman Max Miller, who's here. Thank you, Max, for coming. Thank you. [1:08:08] Very good. Thank you. And elect Robert Sprague as your Secretary of State. Thank you, Robert. Jay [1:08:22] Edwards for State Treasurer. Keith Faber for the Attorney General. Thank you. [1:08:33] LaRose, a friend of mine for State Order. And everyone knows what I've already said. We're here, [1:08:44] and I have such great respect for Senator Bernie Marino. Thank you, Bernie. Thank you. And I want to [1:08:59] thank, especially, Senate Majority Whip, one of the most powerful men in government, [1:09:03] John Barroso, for being here. Thank you, John. Great job. President of the Ohio Senate, Rob McCauley. [1:09:14] Thank you, Rob. That's a big job. Director of the Federal Housing Finance Authority, who's doing a [1:09:24] fantastic job, Bill Volte. Thank you, Bill. Thank you. And I also want to thank a great friend of mine, [1:09:34] Bob Paducek, who was the head of the Republican Party. And I want to laugh with Bob. And he's a [1:09:41] fantastic guy. Thank you, Bob. As well as another really good friend of mine, somebody that ran the [1:09:49] party. Everything she does is good. State Senator Jane Timken. Hi, Jay. I thought that would be. Hi, Jay. [1:09:59] And your current chairman of the Ohio GOP, Alex Triantafilo. Triantafilo. I would have just used [1:10:14] his first name, but I couldn't do that to him. The great job he's done, I can pronounce it. I can [1:10:21] pronounce it pretty well. Alex, thank you. What a great job you've done. Thank you very much. And again, [1:10:28] I want to thank the man that sent me straight on the athletic prowess of our great senator. So, John [1:10:37] Gooden, thank you. What a career. What a great career. Still a young guy. Still a young man. So, another [1:10:47] man. And you know, this is so shocking, because I always feel that my top of the level boxers, like Mike [1:10:53] Tyson, he came to our last row. People love Mike. But the top level guys, they could be 80 years old and [1:10:58] they could be the civilian. Right? And the guy named Jake Paul. And his brother, his brother's not [1:11:08] commanding her. Right, Jake? But Jake Paul gets in with these guys that are not much past their prime, [1:11:17] I'll tell you. And he really mixes it up. He is good. He is one tough guy. You talk about strength. They [1:11:23] hit him on the shoulder. I said, that guy's strong. And his mother, this beautiful woman, is here. I said, [1:11:30] how did you produce this monster? How did you do that? His brother, Pam, is here. I don't know if you [1:11:35] want to bring her up. Jake Paul, come up for a second, please. We're going to be home up about [1:11:58] out here in Cleveland. We love Ohio. This year, she still lives here. A blue collar worker, just like [1:12:09] all the people here in Youngstown. I get confused by the left, the protesters. Do they not have jobs? [1:12:15] That's all they do. Carry signs around while we're doing the work. I know this is a union town. We [1:12:25] love hard workers. We have to protect Ohio. We face evil. We face these people who are willing to do [1:12:33] anything to destroy us. All they do is talk on Twitter. But Twitter fingers never built the country. [1:12:40] Hate has never built the country. And the woke socialist movement that we face has never built [1:12:48] a country. The power is with you, Ohioans, to go and vote for Vivek, for John. We have to protect this [1:13:02] state because Washington doesn't belong to celebrities like me. It doesn't belong to the politicians. [1:13:08] It belongs to you guys and us, the American people today. So you guys have a choice. You can watch [1:13:31] from the chief seats like the left, or you can lace up, get on the field and fight for what's right. [1:13:37] God bless you, Ohio. Come up with chief control. God bless you, America. Thank you. Thank you, [1:13:47] President Trump. Great. I think he's next looking in the room for a little office. [1:14:08] You'll have to be a little bit careful with Jake. I didn't know exactly what the hell he was going to say. [1:14:12] It was very good. Thank you, Jake. Appreciate it. [1:14:17] Wilmer, Ohio State, Pupkeye linebacker, a great one, Bobby Carpenter. [1:14:22] Bobby? Thank you, Bobby. Great work. The 2026 SBA Businessman of the Year, Youngstown native. [1:14:33] The Businessman of the Year. This is pretty good. I'd like to talk to Mark LaMacchia. [1:14:38] Mark. Wow. I know you. That's great. Good job. Great. That's great. I followed you. [1:14:46] Fantastic job. Thank you. Everyone here tonight is part of the greatest movement in the history [1:14:53] of our country. It's the greatest movement ever. But as you can see here today, it's stronger than [1:14:59] ever before. We are going around to do this. I'm doing a rally a night. In the last week, [1:15:06] I'll probably be doing two or three a day. I don't know why the hell I'm doing it. I'm not running, [1:15:10] but I am running. Are you going to promise me you're going to get out and vote? Does everybody [1:15:14] promise they're going to vote in this? To show you how we are doing in the poll, CNN is exactly [1:15:24] the greatest. But they did a poll, a couple of polls recently, and I thought I'd put them up. [1:15:29] Please show the polls. Okay. MAGA GOP on Trump. In the 2024 election versus Kamala Harris, he got 99% [1:15:37] of the MAGA GOP vote. Perhaps surprisingly, I might have thought it'd be 100%, but it was 99%. [1:15:44] Compare that to his approval rating now with the MAGA GOP. It's 98%. That is, there's been no real [1:15:50] decline in MAGA support. These folks say that they're going to vote for congressional Republicans [1:15:55] come the midterm election. Again, that's the 99% that Trump got against Kamala Harris. Look now, [1:16:01] in terms of the congressional vote, 98% of them say they're going to be voting for House Republican [1:16:05] candidates. So that support is actually really holding up strong. It's really, really strong [1:16:11] when it comes to the MAGA GOP and Republicans holding onto that vote. Okay. The president... [1:17:17] Thanks, CNN, I guess. I don't know. I hope he keeps his job, Harry. He's pretty, he's pretty good, [1:17:23] huh, buddy? But I do appreciate that. What an honor. So in conclusion, if you elect the Republican [1:17:31] House and a Republican Senate on November 3rd, you get $5,000. We will make all Trump tax cuts [1:17:44] permanent, including no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, no tax on Social Security for our great [1:17:51] seniors, because they can change it. They want to end all of those things. They want to end it. Why [1:17:57] they want to end it? Nobody has any idea. We will win the order of corruption and fraud led by our [1:18:03] great vice president, J.D. Vance. We will pass the No Invasion of our Country Act prohibiting any future [1:18:15] president from ever opening our borders to illegal immigrants again, whenever you're going to happen. [1:18:21] We will pass a truly great healthcare plan that will stop all payments to big insurance companies, [1:18:30] which own the Democrats. The big insurance companies own the Democrats. That's why they have this crazy [1:18:36] Obamacare, which is so bad. And we will give the money directly to the people. So we're not going [1:18:42] to go around doing what we've done. We're going to give the money directly to the people so you can [1:18:48] buy your own much better healthcare and have a lot of money left over. We will end no cash down [1:18:56] immediately. And we will pass the death penalty with large-scale drug dealers, human traffickers, [1:19:02] and anyone who kills a policeman. And we will pass the Save America Act to defend our sacred election. [1:19:13] And that will include mandatory voter ID and proof of citizenship. And we will enshrine in permanent [1:19:25] vote, no men in women's sports, and no transgender utilization of your children. [1:19:32] So ladies and gentlemen of Ohio, the golden age of America is upon us. But you must get out and vote. [1:19:42] Republican, we have already made unbelievable progress. And now we will reach new levels of [1:19:49] greatness, levels that we have never seen before. It is my honor to be your president during such an [1:19:55] exciting time and exciting time. And together we will make America powerful again, [1:20:07] wealthy again. We will make America healthy again. We will make America strong again. [1:20:17] We will make America proud again. We will make America safe again. And most importantly, [1:20:30] we will make America great again. Thank you very much. Thank you, Ohio. God bless you, Ohio. Thank you.
