"I love this place. Farmers, but I love farmers, I don't care. We're taking care of our farmers and everybody else, and I want to just say a special hello to Iowa. It's an incredible place. I'm thrilled to be back in this state that, you know, I shouldn't say, I shouldn't break, should I? Well, what"
[2:06] I love this place.
[2:18] Farmers, but I love farmers, I don't care.
[2:23] We're taking care of our farmers and everybody else,
[2:25] and I want to just say a special hello to Iowa.
[2:29] It's an incredible place.
[2:31] I'm thrilled to be back in this state that, you know,
[2:35] I shouldn't say, I shouldn't break, should I?
[2:37] Well, what the hell difference is it?
[2:39] Which I won all three times, receiving more votes
[2:42] than any candidate in political history.
[2:47] Catch it.
[2:50] And I want you to get out and vote.
[2:53] When I kept the Iowa caucuses first in the nation,
[2:57] I did that for you, and I did that for your people.
[3:01] There's a little movement.
[3:02] They wanted to put you a little bit back in the stack,
[3:05] like at around 42 or so.
[3:07] That's no good.
[3:08] No, as long as I'm around in any capacity,
[3:12] you're going to be number one.
[3:13] Always going to be number one.
[3:17] You'll always be number one.
[3:18] I'll always have that little extra power.
[3:21] You know, we only have a little more than two years left.
[3:24] Can you believe it?
[3:25] I'm going to have a lot of power when I leave,
[3:27] and I'm going to keep you number one.
[3:29] It doesn't matter.
[3:30] Two days from now, the people of Iowa
[3:33] are going to elect Ashley Hinson as your next senator.
[3:37] Ashley.
[3:40] And we're going to elect a great guy,
[3:43] a real Trumper for a long time,
[3:45] Zach Lane, to the governor's mansion.
[3:47] Thank you.
[3:49] You're both doing great, by the way.
[3:52] You're both doing great.
[3:53] But we still have to get out and vote,
[3:54] but you're both, I looked at some polls, very impressive.
[3:57] But vote.
[3:59] You know, that's a lot of people have been very impressive,
[4:02] and then they become very sad.
[4:04] We don't want that to happen.
[4:06] These two are special people.
[4:07] Just across the state line in Nebraska,
[4:11] we're going to reelect.
[4:15] I went to Nebraska, made a little speech,
[4:18] and he took off like a rocket ship.
[4:19] You saw that, right?
[4:21] It was going to be close, not close anymore,
[4:23] because he's fantastic.
[4:24] Pete Ricketts is going to be a continuation of the US Senate
[4:29] and elect America first Republicans all up and down
[4:33] the line.
[4:33] We have a lot of great ones.
[4:35] We have a lot of great ones here.
[4:37] Ashley's opponent in this race is a woke, far left,
[4:41] radical named Josh Turek, whose record is disqualifying
[4:49] and actually is sort of disgraceful, to be honest with you.
[4:51] I wouldn't want it.
[4:52] I wouldn't want to be running in Iowa with that record.
[4:55] Turek voted to allow schools to turn your children transgender
[5:00] without informing the parents and with no parental consent.
[5:04] I didn't even know you could do that here.
[5:06] I know you could do it in Minnesota.
[5:08] I didn't know you could do that here.
[5:10] We better get that change.
[5:11] He voted in favor of taxpayer-funded transgender
[5:15] mutilization surgeries and in favor of men in girls'
[5:20] bathrooms.
[5:20] He wants men in girls' bathrooms.
[5:24] I'm just giving you the facts.
[5:38] No, I'm just giving you the facts.
[5:40] I'm just, I wrote them down.
[5:41] I said, I don't believe this is Iowa.
[5:44] I thought maybe it could be another place, maybe Minnesota,
[5:48] where they have the worst, probably the worst, or one of
[5:51] the worst governors in history, not just now in history.
[5:55] But he voted to make diversity, equity, and inclusion training
[5:59] a mandatory requirement in Iowa schools.
[6:02] What the heck?
[6:03] Ashley, you better win.
[6:05] You better win.
[6:07] This is not good.
[6:09] But this should make it easy at all.
[6:12] So Ashley Hinson, on the other hand, is a mother, a warrior,
[6:16] a patriot, and she will never let far-left maniacs push the radical
[6:21] left insanity on Iowa's children.
[6:23] She's, I've known her for a long time now, and she's fantastic,
[6:26] actually.
[6:27] And if you don't, if you don't want communists controlling the
[6:33] U.S. Senate, which is between Jay, how about the gentleman
[6:37] from a place called Michigan?
[6:39] He's in there.
[6:40] Jihadist.
[6:41] He's a jihadist.
[6:45] Muslim Brotherhood.
[6:46] Are you at Muslim Brotherhood?
[6:47] No, I don't know anything about Muslim Brotherhood.
[6:50] What about your mother?
[6:51] What about your mother?
[6:52] What about all those little notes back and forth?
[6:56] Can you believe it?
[6:57] Man, oh, man, this can't happen to our country.
[7:01] Take a look at France.
[7:02] How are they doing?
[7:02] Not too good.
[7:05] But Ashley's going to be going to the U.S. Senate.
[7:08] You'll not have to worry about any of these horrible things
[7:12] that you hear about.
[7:17] I think we can get a commitment tonight that Ashley is not in favor
[7:22] of the transgender mutilization of your children.
[7:25] Can we get that commitment?
[7:26] You swear?
[7:29] I think I don't think anybody in the room is.
[7:33] That's why I understand why they are having the election,
[7:36] to be honest with you.
[7:38] Turek also voted in favor of deadly sanctuary cities.
[7:42] He voted to give lavish welfare benefits to illegal aliens
[7:45] and even wrote a memo giving illegal alien criminals
[7:48] instructions on how to evade capture.
[7:51] He's explaining to them how to evade capture murderers,
[7:55] drug dealers, how to evade capture.
[7:57] This is not working for Iowa.
[8:00] Do people know this?
[8:01] I mean, am I just, am I saying this for the first time?
[8:05] How the hell do you have this guy running?
[8:08] Why can't I have somebody like that to run against?
[8:12] Actually, I did.
[8:13] Oh, I did.
[8:16] That was fun.
[8:20] Oh, I did, yeah.
[8:23] Very similar, actually.
[8:25] He betrayed Iowa farmers by voting to help climate extremists
[8:29] bankrupt your farms.
[8:30] And he campaigned with a radical left group
[8:33] that wants to kill, absolutely kill ethanol.
[8:37] You know, I'm the one that saved ethanol.
[8:38] I don't know if you know it or not.
[8:40] I did save it.
[8:43] Iowa needs to reject this person, this horrible person
[8:48] that has none of your values at hand,
[8:51] and elect Ashley Henson.
[8:53] She's great.
[8:55] She's great.
[8:58] Josh Turek is shamefully trying to deceive the people of Iowa
[9:03] into thinking he's a moderate.
[9:05] It's not a moderate.
[9:06] What I just told you, this is not moderate.
[9:10] So he can go vote with extremists like Abdul Mohammed Al-Sayed.
[9:16] They can be together.
[9:19] And James Telefrico.
[9:23] And, oh, no, Ilan Omar.
[9:26] Oh, she's good.
[9:30] I don't know if you've caught it.
[9:31] So I had it done.
[9:32] I'm in this beautiful, this beautiful Air Force One,
[9:35] and we have breaking news all the time, every two minutes.
[9:38] I don't know where the hell they get so much breaking news,
[9:41] but one of them had to do with Ilan Omar.
[9:45] It was just revealed, but listen,
[9:47] because I don't think even you people heard this,
[9:49] although you might with your modern telephones and receivers.
[9:53] It was just revealed just a little while ago
[9:56] that Ilan Omar, not a person I've ever been particularly fond of,
[10:03] that her name is not Ilan Omar,
[10:05] the one that she used to get elected and sworn into Congress.
[10:09] In other words, she used the name Ilan Omar,
[10:12] but rather it's an entirely different name.
[10:16] Iran Noor Sayed Almi.
[10:19] Slightly different than Ilan.
[10:22] That's just, and I don't know if you heard this also.
[10:28] Have you people heard this?
[10:30] Have you heard this, Ashley?
[10:32] And the last name is incredibly,
[10:34] also the exact last name of her brother, Ahmed Noor Sayed Almi,
[10:39] the person that they say she married and had children with.
[10:44] Are you allowed to do that, Jeff?
[10:49] Are you allowed to do that?
[10:50] I don't think so.
[10:51] Joni, I don't know.
[10:53] You're an expert.
[10:54] Are you allowed to do that, Joni?
[10:57] When asked whether or not she married her brother today,
[11:00] they asked her, did you marry your brother?
[11:03] She said, not to my knowledge.
[11:07] That's one of the worst answers I think I've ever heard.
[11:13] You know, I've heard some bad political answers.
[11:16] I could go over a lot of them,
[11:17] but that would be about the worst.
[11:19] Not to my knowledge.
[11:21] I don't think so.
[11:22] Did you have children with your brother?
[11:25] I'm not sure.
[11:26] She didn't know whether or not she married her brother.
[11:32] She wasn't sure.
[11:33] So it's not looking good because she used a fake name
[11:38] to be sworn in.
[11:39] I assume she must immediately have to resign from Congress.
[11:44] So please inform our great Speaker of the House
[11:57] of Representatives, James Michael Johnson.
[12:01] I bet you didn't know that James was there, right?
[12:03] I just thought it was very classy.
[12:05] I was going to use it.
[12:06] He's great.
[12:06] He's a great guy, too.
[12:08] That the Democrat Party has just conceded her seat.
[12:13] That Ilhan Noor Syed Almi, her real name,
[12:17] has openly admitted to fraud, and she will not be legally
[12:21] allowed to be a member of that august party any longer.
[12:32] She won't be able.
[12:33] I mean, not at all.
[12:36] If you get sworn in with a false name,
[12:37] I would imagine that's pretty tough to remain.
[12:40] What do you think, the chairman of our party?
[12:42] What do you think?
[12:45] You got two chairmen.
[12:46] Nash?
[12:48] I don't think it's looking too good.
[12:53] The Republicans have just picked up a seat in the House.
[12:57] Now, she's been a scammer.
[13:05] She's been a scammer for a long time.
[13:06] I'm pretty good at watching that stuff.
[13:09] And she's been a scammer for a long time.
[13:11] You know, she comes from a non-country, basically, Somalia.
[13:15] Has no government, has no nothing, has nothing.
[13:18] All they do is run around shooting each other.
[13:20] Then she comes over here.
[13:21] The Constitution gives me absolute right to freedom of speech.
[13:26] She's telling us about she's going to fix up our country.
[13:29] She comes from probably the worst country on earth.
[13:31] There are a couple of pretty bad ones.
[13:33] I'd say that's right there.
[13:34] How about what they've done destroying Minnesota, 500,000 people?
[13:39] They destroyed.
[13:40] They're destroying.
[13:41] Well, maybe it could be saved.
[13:42] We have a very good candidate running.
[13:46] Maybe we can save it.
[13:47] But what a good state that was.
[13:50] In this election, I'm asking you to do me a very big favor.
[13:54] So when I run, I get 50% more vote, 49.2% more vote.
[13:59] So I'm asking you to pretend that I'm running.
[14:02] Pretend I'm on the ballot.
[14:04] Because if you get out, we're going to win big.
[14:08] And early voting in Iowa is underway right now.
[14:12] And so get everyone that you know, go vote.
[14:14] The Democrats would say, go vote, just pick up anybody.
[14:18] They don't have to be a citizen of our country with the Democrats.
[14:23] They don't have to have voter ID, but we want voter ID, don't we?
[14:27] We're going to have it.
[14:28] The last time the radical Democrats had power,
[14:33] they gave us the worst inflation in American history,
[14:36] the highest energy prices in American history,
[14:40] the worst trade deficit in American history.
[14:42] They allowed 25 million people to pour across our borders
[14:46] from all over the world.
[14:48] It was an invasion.
[14:49] It was like a military invasion.
[14:51] And if they win the midterms, even, it's the start.
[14:55] It's the start of something very bad, very dark,
[14:59] very horrible for our country, they will do it again.
[15:02] They're going to open up the borders.
[15:03] They're going to have men playing in women's sports.
[15:06] That's another beauty.
[15:10] But the proud people of Iowa will never let that happen.
[15:12] We just need the votes.
[15:14] We need the votes.
[15:21] Less than two years ago, the radical left Democrats
[15:24] handed us the dark age of America.
[15:27] But we quickly turned it around into what they are calling.
[15:31] And even the fake news back there is starting to see the number.
[15:35] Well, that's a lot of fake news.
[15:38] Wow, I didn't see you back there in the lights.
[15:41] All those people.
[15:42] No, there are a few good ones there.
[15:44] Let's see.
[15:45] I'd say about 8.2% are great.
[15:49] There's a good one.
[15:50] He's a good one.
[15:53] But we're in the golden age of America right now.
[15:55] There's never been a time like it.
[16:00] So we achieved the most secure border in American history
[16:03] in the past 17 months.
[16:05] Zero illegal aliens have been admitted into the United States.
[16:14] Zero.
[16:18] You know, I wish it were.
[16:19] I was with the great Tim Scott last night,
[16:23] a senator from South Carolina.
[16:26] He's beloved.
[16:27] He's great.
[16:28] He endorsed me.
[16:29] I sent him everywhere.
[16:31] He was so good.
[16:34] And we talked a little bit about it.
[16:36] I said to Tim, you know, zero for 17 months.
[16:40] And that's made from people that lean left, meaning, you know,
[16:44] I don't know why Democrats are always doing the charts.
[16:46] But if they could find some, I would rather, because who can believe?
[16:50] So they allowed 25 million people in.
[16:53] And we allowed in the last 17, zero.
[16:55] I said, you know, I wish it was like 109 or even 1,014.
[17:02] Because who can believe zero?
[17:04] It was actually zero in 17 months.
[17:06] Who can believe it?
[17:07] Right?
[17:11] Remember Joe Biden said, we'd have to go to Congress to get a change.
[17:16] I said, no, all you need is a new president.
[17:18] That's what you need.
[17:20] I didn't go.
[17:22] I didn't go to Congress.
[17:25] So record numbers of illegal alien criminals have been taken off the streets.
[17:29] And we've achieved the largest drop in violent crime ever recorded,
[17:33] despite the fact that people have come in that we don't want.
[17:37] And we're moving them out fast.
[17:38] We've gotten most of the really bad ones out.
[17:42] And the murder rate sounds horrible to talk about it here.
[17:46] But the murder rate is the lowest level in 125 years since 1900.
[17:57] And when Ashley goes to Washington, D.C., where Joni has spent a lot of very prosperous years.
[18:04] Great job, Joni.
[18:05] Great job.
[18:06] We're going to miss you, Joni.
[18:08] She's a good person.
[18:10] Good person.
[18:11] I was there right at the beginning, right?
[18:13] Good.
[18:14] You've done great.
[18:15] But she will tell you, it's become a whole different place.
[18:18] It was the most dangerous, murderous place.
[18:21] People, three murders on average a week.
[18:23] Can you believe this?
[18:24] They come down from Iowa.
[18:25] They come from Indiana.
[18:27] They come from places, beautiful places.
[18:31] And the parents would get a call, please, your son is dead.
[18:37] Your son was killed while watching and looking
[18:40] at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial.
[18:44] We were losing the, you know what we're doing now?
[18:46] Nothing.
[18:46] It's a safe, one of the safe, it went from one of the most unsafe cities
[18:50] to now one of the cleanest, most beautiful and safest cities.
[18:54] We have almost no crime.
[18:59] I'm so proud of Washington.
[19:00] Is that a correct statement, Joni?
[19:02] So when I first came in, I guarantee you, Joni,
[19:05] there's lots of armed guards walking you to your capital.
[19:09] And now you don't need them.
[19:11] You don't need them.
[19:11] It's a whole different ballgame.
[19:13] Washington, D.C. is one of the safest cities in the country.
[19:16] And it should be.
[19:17] It's our capital.
[19:17] It should be, right?
[19:19] I signed the largest tax cuts in American history
[19:23] with the great big beautiful bill, including no tax on tips,
[19:27] no tax on overtime, and no tax on Social Security.
[19:32] You don't have any seniors in this room, for our great seniors.
[19:37] We don't have any seniors in this particular room, right?
[19:41] Are there any seniors?
[19:42] I don't happen to be a senior.
[19:43] No, I'm in my 40s.
[19:48] I feel the same way, but I don't know.
[19:50] I hope that lasts for a long time.
[19:51] I feel the same way.
[19:53] I'm the only person that took three cognitive tests.
[19:56] No other president's ever taken it, or vice president,
[19:59] has ever taken it.
[20:00] And that's an aptitude test.
[20:01] And I aced all of them.
[20:03] And you know what?
[20:07] I think everybody that's running for president,
[20:10] we saw that last term, should be forced to take cognitive tests.
[20:13] You want to know that?
[20:15] You know why they don't?
[20:17] Because I had a thing.
[20:19] I put it in so innocently.
[20:20] Everybody, anybody running for president,
[20:22] or vice president, has to take a cognitive.
[20:25] And you know, they're tough.
[20:26] The first question's easy.
[20:27] The second question's easy.
[20:29] And by the time you get up to number 30,
[20:31] there aren't many people that can answer those questions,
[20:33] I'll tell you.
[20:34] But I put in a, I wanted to do an executive order
[20:37] where anybody running for president,
[20:39] or vice president, has to take a cognitive test.
[20:41] And I thought it was great.
[20:43] I thought, oh, I'm so smart.
[20:45] That's a great idea.
[20:47] And then you know what they told me?
[20:48] It's not constitutional.
[20:51] In other words, a person who's stupid
[20:53] is allowed to run for office.
[20:56] I looked at it, Tim, I looked at it so hard.
[20:59] I said, you've got to be kidding.
[21:01] No, I think you should pass a cognitive test.
[21:03] And so I took them three, three of them.
[21:06] I aced all three.
[21:07] In fact, the doctors are here.
[21:09] They travel all over the place with whoever
[21:10] the president may be.
[21:12] And I said, do you think I should do it?
[21:15] They said, well, if you're smart, I guess it's OK.
[21:19] I said, how many presidents have taken them?
[21:21] None.
[21:22] Are they easy?
[21:23] No, they're actually hard.
[21:24] You know the first question, I said, oh, they have a lion,
[21:28] a snake, a giraffe, and a bear.
[21:30] And they said, which is the snake?
[21:35] And then when they report that I aced it,
[21:39] they always say, oh, it was so easy.
[21:42] And they always show the first question.
[21:45] Let me tell you, by the time you get to number five,
[21:47] a lot of people are left out on the road.
[21:49] And by the time you get to number 30, it's not too many.
[21:54] They'll say, like, take a number or any number.
[21:58] They say 49.
[21:59] Triple it.
[22:01] And they go pretty much into speed.
[22:03] Triple it.
[22:05] Divide by four.
[22:07] Add 2019.
[22:10] Subtract.
[22:12] 87.
[22:14] Divide by three.
[22:17] Multiply by nine.
[22:19] What is the number?
[22:23] Not a lot of people are going to be able to do that.
[22:27] Not a lot, I did it, I did it three times.
[22:30] And you know, I got no credit for it.
[22:32] They don't talk about it.
[22:34] No, they don't talk about it.
[22:35] They don't talk about it.
[22:38] I took the damn test.
[22:39] Where is that doctor?
[22:40] Where the hell is that doctor?
[22:43] There he is.
[22:44] But he's one of the young ones.
[22:46] Oh, what did they leave the, they left the admiral back home
[22:48] tonight.
[22:49] We have admirals, they have generals, we have the great doctors.
[22:52] And they are great.
[22:52] Walter Reed Medical Center is fantastic.
[22:58] But I said last night, so I took it, I announced it.
[23:01] I thought it would be a big deal and nobody even covered it.
[23:05] I took it, because you know that if I didn't do well,
[23:07] it would have been Jeff.
[23:08] I would have had a disaster on my hands, right?
[23:10] That's what they told me.
[23:11] They said, well, sir, if you do well, it's great.
[23:14] If you don't do well, it's essentially
[23:16] sort of a little bit of a public.
[23:17] You know, it's a military hospital.
[23:19] It'll get out.
[23:20] It may be embarrassing to you.
[23:22] I said, well, look, nothing can be as embarrassing
[23:26] as some of the things, some of the fake things I've had
[23:29] to endure over the years.
[23:30] But let's do it.
[23:31] So I did it, so here's what the new thing, so I did it, passed it.
[23:34] Nobody talked about it.
[23:35] Did it again, passed it, you know, very little.
[23:37] It was a mention in one of the papers.
[23:38] It was the last page of the paper.
[23:41] It was a piece about this big.
[23:42] I did it.
[23:43] And then I did it a third time in this term.
[23:45] I did it twice.
[23:46] And then I did it a third time and wasn't much mentioned.
[23:50] And then here's what they said.
[23:52] Why has he taken three tests?
[23:54] There must be something wrong with the president.
[23:57] What is he doing?
[23:58] Why has he tried?
[24:00] He's doing there must be something.
[24:02] So in other words, now they say, because I took it three times,
[24:06] there must be something wrong.
[24:07] No, there's nothing wrong.
[24:08] I'll let you know when there is.
[24:10] Actually, you'll know before me, I suspect.
[24:13] But there's nothing wrong.
[24:14] Isn't that amazing?
[24:15] No, they're genius.
[24:16] They're genius.
[24:17] They have a situation today.
[24:18] I shouldn't talk about it.
[24:19] But do you mind if I go off script slightly,
[24:22] which I've been doing most of the night, Tim?
[24:29] Tim Scott's been at the last three rallies.
[24:33] Either he likes it or he's doing a great job of, you know,
[24:36] he's sort of in charge of this.
[24:37] He was there last night, the night before.
[24:39] Can you believe I'm doing about 34 of these things?
[24:42] Can you believe it?
[24:43] Now, I don't mind.
[24:46] I don't mind.
[24:48] I don't mind because I really do like the people here.
[24:51] Let's see, will I be doing any that I don't know?
[24:54] I like them pretty much.
[24:55] We set records in so many states, this is a record.
[24:59] But I think it's like 32 states, Florida, Texas.
[25:03] We're going to Mississippi, records.
[25:05] All records, you know, all records.
[25:07] So don't get too cocky.
[25:08] You know, when I came in and said, we set the record.
[25:10] There were plenty of others.
[25:11] But what happened today, I was hit.
[25:16] We have a race going on, a governor's race in Ohio.
[25:22] And I was called by Vivek Rameshwamy, you know?
[25:29] And I ran against him.
[25:31] He ran against me in the primaries.
[25:33] And he's a very smart guy, very good guy, did well.
[25:36] 2% or so.
[25:39] Yeah, I believe it's excellent.
[25:41] But he was good, very smart.
[25:43] And they're all smart.
[25:44] You know, anybody has to do this, even if you don't think
[25:47] some of them are, they're smarter than you think.
[25:48] It's not easy.
[25:49] It's not an easy way to do.
[25:51] But a big problem, because the fake news came up
[25:54] with this genius idea.
[25:56] They are genius, I have to tell you.
[25:57] They're a little evil, but they're genius.
[26:00] So it seems that the candidate that Vivek is running against,
[26:05] her mother said horrible things about her,
[26:10] called her a liar, called her, I've never seen anything
[26:13] quite like it.
[26:15] And it was so terrible.
[26:18] And when I first saw it, I said, wow, that means Vivek
[26:21] easily will win the race.
[26:23] And then I got a call from Vivek.
[26:25] He said, what would you recommend?
[26:27] Because I'm getting killed in the press.
[26:29] Why?
[26:30] He said, because they think I should immediately
[26:32] take the ad off.
[26:33] They did an ad of the mother saying the daughter
[26:35] is incompetent, a liar, a disgusting, unreliable person.
[26:41] My mom would not say that about me, even if she believed it.
[26:45] Mary McCloud, I had a great mom.
[26:48] I had a great mom.
[26:49] She's looking down at us right now.
[26:51] But he said, what do you recommend?
[26:58] I said, no, tell me again.
[27:00] You're serious.
[27:00] The mother said horrible things about your opponent.
[27:04] Why can't I have that happen to me?
[27:07] That's a good thing.
[27:08] But I said, you've got to ride with it.
[27:12] You mean you have a mother that said terrible things about,
[27:14] well, who knows the daughter?
[27:16] She really said she was a horrible liar.
[27:19] I mean, it was crazy.
[27:20] And he made a commercial.
[27:21] He put it up, you know, like I would do,
[27:24] like most people would do, and I walk outside of the White House
[27:28] and we have this massive scrum of press.
[27:31] They're going crazy about everything.
[27:34] They're just crazy.
[27:36] And these are crazy people.
[27:39] And they are screaming at me, tell him to take it down.
[27:44] It's so disrespectful to have her up.
[27:46] How dare he do that?
[27:48] How dare?
[27:49] And I said one thing.
[27:50] I said, let's say that my mother, Mary McCloud, Trump,
[27:56] called me a liar, and much worse.
[28:00] The liar was the nicest part, OK?
[28:02] That was the best.
[28:03] Horrible things.
[28:05] You would put it up.
[28:06] These guys would put my thing up.
[28:08] They would get the advertisement of the year.
[28:11] They would, I said, so you mean because it's a Democrat running
[28:16] against a Republican, which is, and if running against me
[28:19] would be 10 times worse because Vivek is a very different kind
[28:24] of a guy than me, but running against me with Trump derangements,
[28:28] they would consider this to be the single greatest ad in history.
[28:32] Right, Tim?
[28:33] And I said to the press today, I said, well,
[28:35] let me ask you a question.
[28:36] Sir, he should take it down.
[28:38] I had one woman from ABC fake news, one of the worst of all.
[28:42] I think ABC is the most crooked of all.
[28:44] You know, it's funny, they spend all this money on PR, you know,
[28:50] to try and, this is ABC news.
[28:52] They're the worst, total fake news.
[28:55] All of them, they're all no good.
[28:57] But anyway, but this woman starts screaming.
[28:59] I recognize her immediately, not a particularly attractive person
[29:03] inside or out.
[29:05] In fact, I'm just amazed that these people can be reporters
[29:09] or anchors.
[29:10] She's screaming.
[29:10] She's a nasty person.
[29:12] I've had a lot of problems with her, fake portions.
[29:15] She goes, you should tell him to take it down immediately.
[29:18] Why?
[29:19] Because it's such a good ad.
[29:21] Then I said, let's say that my mother said bad about me.
[29:25] Donald Trump is a liar.
[29:27] He's a horrible person and a liar.
[29:31] And my opponent put it up, Tim, what are the chances
[29:35] that the news would demand that it be?
[29:37] He says zero.
[29:39] You're less than, I think less than zero.
[29:42] No, so I said, it's a big thing.
[29:44] It's like a big story about, he must take that ad down
[29:47] immediately.
[29:48] He must, no.
[29:49] The mother is calling the daughter a terrible person
[29:54] and a liar.
[29:55] Everybody should be so lucky.
[29:57] Why would you shield somebody from that?
[29:59] Why would we do that?
[30:01] So I told him, leave it up and look upstairs and say, thank you,
[30:06] God, very much.
[30:07] I appreciate it.
[30:07] So, but that's a hot story today.
[30:12] They want him to take down an ad.
[30:14] I only wish I could have had an ad like that against somebody.
[30:18] But as it turned out, we didn't need it.
[30:20] It was very, we didn't need it.
[30:22] We got all seven swing.
[30:23] We won all seven swing states.
[30:25] We won the popular vote.
[30:26] We won everything.
[30:28] 87% of the counties, did you know that?
[30:31] Jeff, did you know we won 87% of the counties in America?
[30:36] Like 2,575 versus 500-something.
[30:43] I mean, it was incredible.
[30:46] It was a great election.
[30:47] So why should I do it?
[30:48] That's why we joked last night.
[30:51] My wife is a very elegant, beautiful woman.
[30:54] Very respectful.
[30:56] She's actually becoming the next Eleanor Roosevelt
[31:04] every time I look.
[31:05] Forster kids, take it down.
[31:08] That's the internet stuff.
[31:10] So many, she does a great job.
[31:11] But she's always saying, please don't dance on stage.
[31:16] You are the president of the United States of America.
[31:19] Do you know that?
[31:20] Please don't dance on stage, darling.
[31:22] I love you very much.
[31:23] But the dancing is not presidential.
[31:27] And she hates, in particular, the weightlifting,
[31:29] you know, where the woman gets caught.
[31:33] Oh, baby, come on.
[31:35] 211 pounds.
[31:37] And then a man comes along who transgendered.
[31:39] He was a man that he transferred over to womanhood,
[31:44] a lovely ceremony, and became a woman.
[31:46] And he goes out to the stage.
[31:48] He was a failed male weightlifter.
[31:50] He failed badly.
[31:52] He takes the 211 pounds.
[31:55] Ping.
[31:57] He listened with, like, nothing to it.
[31:59] And then he does it again.
[32:01] And he broke the record by 102 pounds.
[32:05] You know, they put on the thing when they're going for the record,
[32:08] an eighth of an ounce here, an eighth of an ounce going
[32:10] for the record.
[32:11] She couldn't quite get it.
[32:12] Then he goes up.
[32:13] He breaks the record by more than 100 pounds.
[32:17] Now, here's the good news.
[32:20] No men in women's sports.
[32:21] We've told the Olympics, no, we cannot do that.
[32:25] We can't have that.
[32:29] And we've actually won about 90%, I'd say, Tim,
[32:33] 90% of that case in the Supreme Court.
[32:35] There's still that little wrinkle that they can go around.
[32:39] Oh, boy, I sort of hope maybe we shouldn't, I don't know,
[32:42] maybe we shouldn't want to win that because it's so good.
[32:45] I only bring it up about a week before an election
[32:48] because I can't believe they gave it to us,
[32:49] no men in women's sports.
[32:51] We have a lot of crazy things.
[32:52] That's why they're great at cheating.
[32:54] They cheat like hell.
[32:55] And if they didn't cheat, they could never win
[32:57] because their policy is so stupid, so stupid.
[33:05] But could you imagine in 500 years from now,
[33:08] that record will stand for the women?
[33:11] That's terrible.
[33:12] We have to change the records because that record will be
[33:15] standing in 500 years, and it'll be 100 pounds more
[33:20] than any woman's ever lifted.
[33:22] And they can look back, and by that time,
[33:24] we'll have it fully done.
[33:26] They'll look back and they'll say,
[33:27] who the hell lifted all this weight?
[33:29] But you know, with the way the world works,
[33:32] women will get stronger, and maybe in 500 to 1,000 years,
[33:36] you'll be close to that number.
[33:38] But the men will go up also, right, Tim?
[33:40] So it was sort of crazy.
[33:42] But they want men to play in women's sports.
[33:45] How ridiculous is it, right?
[33:47] How ridiculous.
[33:48] And Ashley, are you in favor of men playing in women's sports?
[33:51] OK.
[33:51] I have a feeling we're getting major commitments.
[33:54] You've got a lot of people.
[33:55] I have a feeling Ashley will never be a big fan of men
[33:59] playing in women's sports, right?
[34:01] No?
[34:01] OK.
[34:02] Thank you.
[34:02] She promises.
[34:04] We secured commitments for 22.
[34:07] There's a record by five times, 22.2.
[34:10] And they're building plants all over Iowa.
[34:14] To the best of my memory, and I happen to have a very good
[34:17] memory to the best.
[34:18] I just approved a steel plant for billions of dollars
[34:22] in a section of Iowa that can use the jobs, right?
[34:27] One of the biggest plants in the country,
[34:28] maybe the biggest, owned by an unbelievable family
[34:34] with lots of cash.
[34:36] They'll do it right.
[34:37] They're looking forward to it.
[34:38] Yeah, you're having, I don't think of you
[34:40] as a steel plant place.
[34:42] I think of you with a farm and the John Deere tractors
[34:45] and everything, but you're going to have maybe
[34:47] the biggest steel plant in the entire United States.
[34:50] I just approved it last week, and we had a great ceremony.
[34:53] Ashley was there.
[34:57] So the $22 trillion, 22.2, but the $22 trillion
[35:04] is the largest number ever for any country anywhere
[35:08] in the world at any time.
[35:09] It was 10 years ago that another country had the record,
[35:13] and the record was a very small number by comparison.
[35:15] So I'm very proud.
[35:17] And that's why you're building all of these plants all over.
[35:19] The stock market has set 88 all-time records
[35:24] in just this short, less than two-year period.
[35:28] And your 401ks, you look like geniuses,
[35:31] and you didn't do a damn thing.
[35:32] I did it.
[35:33] You didn't do it, damn it.
[35:35] Your 401ks are more than double what they were a year ago.
[35:39] Think of that.
[35:40] I mean, you know, do me a favor.
[35:42] Before you vote, everybody has to promise they're going to vote.
[35:45] Does everybody raise your right hand, please?
[35:48] OK, then we could take it a step further.
[35:50] You have to promise you're voting Republican.
[35:51] But I have a feeling that that's a big waste of words
[35:56] in this particular room.
[35:57] But your 401ks, if you, I would like you to do one thing.
[36:01] Get ready to vote, and then take a look at your 401ks
[36:05] and what we've done for you, and then vote.
[36:08] There's not a person in this room that's going to vote against us,
[36:11] because your 401ks have more than doubled in a period of a year.
[36:18] And income, I did this the other night.
[36:21] I said, just listen to these three points or four points,
[36:25] and I no longer have to speak any longer,
[36:27] because they're so big and so important.
[36:31] Income for hardworking Americans has soared to the highest level ever recorded.
[36:38] OK, that's one.
[36:41] Number two, more Americans are working today than at any time
[36:47] in the history of our country, right?
[36:49] Number four.
[36:52] Number three, the poverty rate has just reached its best level
[36:58] in American history.
[36:59] There's less poverty, and the poverty's at the highest level.
[37:02] So those three things, those three things.
[37:07] I'll go with a couple of more, and then I'm just walking off the stage,
[37:11] because what the hell do I have to keep talking for?
[37:15] African-American poverty, Hispanic-American poverty,
[37:20] Native American poverty rates are all at the best levels ever recorded.
[37:24] Asian too, Asian-American.
[37:29] And I'll give you one more.
[37:31] Has anybody ever heard of a gentleman named Barack Hussein Obama?
[37:37] Well, Barack Hussein Obama said,
[37:39] we will never be a manufacturing country.
[37:42] Well, we're manufacturing at levels we've never seen before.
[37:50] And manufacturing jobs are the best.
[37:52] They're high paying.
[37:53] They're great.
[37:53] You love going to work.
[37:54] I mean, they're the best.
[37:56] Exports have soared to the highest level in American history.
[38:01] So we're manufacturing and we export.
[38:04] That means we send out to other places, other countries.
[38:08] It's the highest, think of it, it's the highest level.
[38:11] So you just heard six statistics.
[38:14] Ladies and gentlemen, good night.
[38:16] I love Iowa very much.
[38:26] I'm leaving.
[38:27] How the hell can I beat it?
[38:28] You got more people working.
[38:31] Your individual income is the highest.
[38:33] Your poverty level is the best it's ever been.
[38:36] And everybody's making money.
[38:39] But think of it.
[38:40] It's amazing.
[38:41] Think of the one highest level of exports.
[38:44] You know, we think of our country not that way.
[38:46] And by the way, you haven't seen anything yet.
[38:49] Because if you look at all the plants that are being built here, like your steel plant.
[38:54] But if you look at all of the plants being built in this country right now, record number of
[39:00] car plants are all coming in from Canada.
[39:02] They're coming in from Mexico.
[39:04] They're coming in from Germany and Japan, South Korea.
[39:08] You know, they took our car.
[39:10] They took 56% of our car plans.
[39:13] We're bringing them all back.
[39:14] You never saw activity like this.
[39:16] And the numbers, when I said about exports, forget it.
[39:19] Wait till you see in a year from now, two years from now.
[39:22] I don't know who's going to be your next president.
[39:24] And I think the law said, I'm not 100% sure.
[39:27] But I think the law says that I'm not allowed to run again.
[39:30] I've studied that phrase.
[39:36] Ashley, I've studied that phrase.
[39:38] I just got a poll number.
[39:39] I'd kill everybody.
[39:40] I'd beat everybody.
[39:41] I studied that phrase forever.
[39:44] Unfortunately, it's quite concise.
[39:47] There's not a lot of wiggle room.
[39:48] It says something to the effect that under no circumstances and for any reason,
[39:55] will you even consider thinking about running for president if you had?
[40:02] Well, the one thing is different.
[40:04] They cheated us on the second one because we won it three times.
[40:08] So I think I have the right to run again.
[40:13] I think I have the right to run again because they cheated.
[40:20] They cheated.
[40:22] They rigged the election.
[40:24] They rigged that election.
[40:26] We did so good.
[40:27] No, we won three times, but that's all right.
[40:29] You know, I want the three wins, but I don't want the results of the second term.
[40:33] I don't want those results.
[40:35] What horrible results.
[40:36] 25 million people came into our country.
[40:39] The place was going to our country.
[40:42] Our country was dead.
[40:44] You know, a lot of leaders said it less than just a little while ago.
[40:47] I was with a group of people, but they say it all the time.
[40:52] A little while ago, we had a dead country.
[40:54] Our country was dead.
[40:55] And now we have the hottest country anywhere in the world.
[40:57] They say it.
[40:58] We have the hottest.
[40:59] We have the hottest country anywhere.
[41:05] We made the largest ever investment in the U.S. armed forces, Joni, and
[41:10] $1 trillion all made in the USA, right?
[41:13] That was...
[41:16] Now we're going to go up.
[41:19] We captured and brought to justice the outlawed dictator of Venezuela,
[41:23] Nicolas Maduro, who is now a waiting trial.
[41:29] And we won the war in Venezuela.
[41:32] One of the...
[41:33] I mean, if you've got to take over a country, that's like the best.
[41:36] The oil.
[41:36] You know how you find oil in Venezuela?
[41:38] Look at the ground.
[41:41] You say there, look.
[41:42] You see bubbles.
[41:44] You don't need machinery.
[41:45] All you do is look around.
[41:46] Oh, there's one right there.
[41:48] It's unbelievable.
[41:50] And think of it.
[41:52] We captured Venezuela.
[41:54] We won the war in one day.
[41:55] And now we're working with them.
[41:56] And we're producing millions and millions of barrels of oil a week.
[42:01] Millions of millions coming back into it.
[42:04] And when the war in Iran ends, oil is going to be even less.
[42:11] You know, I was in...
[42:13] I say it a lot.
[42:13] I was in your state.
[42:16] The day before, I said we have to go and stop them from having a nuclear weapon.
[42:19] If they had a nuclear weapon, you wouldn't be very comfortable.
[42:22] You probably would have seen already the devastation.
[42:26] But we had to stop.
[42:28] But I tell the story all the time.
[42:29] I always mention Iowa.
[42:31] I was in Iowa making a speech.
[42:34] And in going to wherever I was going, I looked over and passed two gas stations.
[42:39] And I looked at the top of the pumps.
[42:41] And it was $1.95 a gallon.
[42:44] And the other one was, right?
[42:45] The other one was $1.85.
[42:48] Now, do you think that Sleepy Joe Biden,
[42:50] do you think he's looking at pumps to find out the oil price?
[42:54] Do you think when Biden drives along the street,
[42:56] let me see the oil price today?
[42:58] He didn't look at oil prices.
[43:00] He had no clue.
[43:02] But think of it.
[43:03] So I had to do something.
[43:06] And I looked.
[43:07] Your oil price will be lower than that.
[43:09] There's so much oil around.
[43:10] And you know, today it was announced in the Wall Street Journal that
[43:13] our Navy's unbelieved the blockade.
[43:16] More oil came out of the Hormuz Strait over the last week than at any time previous,
[43:22] including before the war, the start of the war.
[43:25] That's because of the blockade.
[43:31] Remember when Iran said, we're going to block up this trade?
[43:34] And they did.
[43:34] And then I said, but we're going to block up them.
[43:37] So they haven't gotten one barrel of oil for a long time.
[43:41] They're not exactly doing too well.
[43:43] I terminated Barack Hussein Obama's JCPOA or the Iran nuclear deal, as some people call it.
[43:50] Yeah.
[43:50] Which was a road to a nuclear weapon for Iran.
[43:55] You know, do you remember what he did?
[43:56] He paid for it.
[43:57] He gave him billions and billions.
[43:59] You can't pay for this stuff.
[44:01] They got to respect you.
[44:02] Do you remember he loaded up a Boeing 757 with $1.7 billion in cash.
[44:10] You know, did you ever see a pile of a million dollars like in $100 bills?
[44:14] Tim Scott did, maybe.
[44:15] I don't know.
[44:16] But Tim, did you ever see?
[44:18] It's big.
[44:19] It's like three, four times the size of this, right?
[44:22] It's big.
[44:22] It's big.
[44:23] OK.
[44:24] That's $1 million and $100.
[44:27] He sent them $1.7 billion in green cash, empty out every bank in Maryland, Virginia, and what?
[44:35] The banks had no money.
[44:37] Every.
[44:38] He brought it to Iran and he gave it to them.
[44:41] Can you imagine the face of these guys when the plane opened up and this cash?
[44:46] $1.7 billion.
[44:47] And then he gave tens of billions of dollars over that.
[44:51] But to me, the $1.7 billion, that's when I realized how powerful a president is.
[44:56] When you can put together $1.7, I still don't think it was legal, but what the hell.
[45:01] Nobody ever looked at him.
[45:03] But how the hell do you give $1.7 in green cash to the number one state sponsor of terror Iran?
[45:10] So we obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment capacity with Operation Midnight Hammer and Operation Epic
[45:17] Cure and we defeated them military, financially, and otherwise.
[45:34] And now we're ensuring that they never will.
[45:37] You can never let them have anything.
[45:39] You can never let them have.
[45:40] I deal with them.
[45:41] I deal with them.
[45:42] They're freaking crazy.
[45:44] I said, you guys are crazy, man.
[45:46] They're crazy.
[45:47] Well, the problem we have is we wiped out their leaders.
[45:51] They're number one leaders.
[45:52] We knocked out the first level.
[45:55] They're gone.
[45:56] Number two is gone.
[45:57] Some of number three.
[45:58] And now I have nobody to negotiate with.
[46:00] My biggest problem.
[46:01] Nobody wants to be president of Iran.
[46:04] You know, we listen to some of their conversations very nicely.
[46:07] We're very good.
[46:09] Is that friend or foe back there?
[46:10] Friend or foe?
[46:11] Is that young man screaming back there?
[46:13] I don't know.
[46:14] We, you're the president of Iran.
[46:18] Good.
[46:20] It's good.
[46:20] I think he sounds good.
[46:22] But two weeks ago, I also signed an order waiving off-road requirements for red dye diesel,
[46:28] allowing farmers, truckers, and anyone else to fill up diesel totally tax-free, totally tax-free.
[46:39] And on Monday, I announced the Harvest Fuel Relief Program, providing our farmers with $8 billion
[46:47] to offset diesel costs in the harvest season, including an estimated $400 million is coming to Iowa farmers.
[46:56] $400 million.
[46:57] Did you know that?
[46:57] Did you know that?
[46:58] $400 million.
[46:59] It's not bad.
[47:00] And if you remember, in my first term, we had some countries taking advantage of us,
[47:09] and I gave our farmers $28 billion.
[47:14] Do you remember?
[47:15] Do they remember?
[47:15] Look, they all remember.
[47:17] $28 billion, it all came out of tariffs, my fifth favorite word.
[47:22] It used to be my favorite word, but they just, I said, tariffs are my all-time favorite word.
[47:28] It is really, but they said, what about God?
[47:32] What about your wife?
[47:34] What about children relationship?
[47:37] They killed me with that.
[47:39] Tariff is my favorite word.
[47:40] So what happened is I now make it my fifth favorite word, and I'm okay, right?
[47:45] I'm okay.
[47:47] It's made us rich.
[47:48] It's made us rich, and I've been able to settle wars because of it.
[47:52] I said, you're going to fight India and Pakistan?
[47:56] They were fighting.
[47:57] They had 11 planes already knocked down.
[47:59] And I said, you're going to fight?
[48:00] We're going to charge you guys tariffs?
[48:02] And no way, you can't do that.
[48:04] The tariffs were so important that they stopped fighting.
[48:06] We saved a possible two nuclear nations.
[48:09] And tonight, in more breaking news, my administration is using Defense Production Act to release $150
[48:17] million to increase American refining capacity to produce more diesel and more gasoline at record
[48:27] levels, actually.
[48:35] And the fact is, you know, we have more oil than Russia and Saudi Arabia combined.
[48:43] And if you go back eight or nine years, you'll see that it was a different world.
[48:48] But we have so much now.
[48:50] And the thing we need is, and we're building them rapidly, is refineries.
[48:56] We have so much oil.
[48:57] You wouldn't believe even all of that oil pouring out.
[49:00] But one of the things, I hate to say it, and, you know, I always get killed when I say it.
[49:04] But, you know, with the hormones straight having a problem for a long time, not too much anymore.
[49:10] They do shoot us every once in a while.
[49:12] It's like, you know, bing, little shots.
[49:15] They do shoot.
[49:16] And we knock the hell out of them.
[49:17] We, you know, we can trace it right back.
[49:19] So they shoot at us.
[49:21] We shoot at them.
[49:22] It goes right down the barrel of the gun or whatever launched, whatever weapon.
[49:26] Now it's unbelievable.
[49:31] Now we have the most, we have the greatest military equipment in the world by far.
[49:35] Ask Venezuela.
[49:38] We have the biggest, we have the greatest mode to think of it.
[49:42] So they shoot.
[49:43] And within three minutes, another weapon or weapon, a missile, small.
[49:49] You don't need too large, actually.
[49:51] Comes right back.
[49:52] Goes right down the barrel of the gun.
[49:54] So now when you watch them shoot, because we have pictures of them,
[49:57] they shoot and they run.
[50:00] They shoot and they are out of there.
[50:04] Now we also gave truckers and farmers the right to repair your own truck and equipment.
[50:09] And can you imagine?
[50:12] And I pardoned many people who Biden administration sent to jail.
[50:20] They were fixing.
[50:21] You know what they were sent to jail for?
[50:22] They were fixing their truck.
[50:23] Do you guys know about this?
[50:25] You know, it took me a little while to, I said, you got to be kidding.
[50:29] No, they showed me, sir, would you pardon so-and-so from Iowa?
[50:34] A few of them from Iowa.
[50:35] I said, what did they do wrong?
[50:38] You know, usually it's they killed somebody in a fit of rage.
[50:41] Sir, they fixed their truck.
[50:43] What?
[50:44] You know, seriously, right?
[50:47] This is only in America, only in stupid America.
[50:49] That's run by stupid people.
[50:52] They fixed their truck, sir.
[50:53] They got five years in jail.
[50:54] I said, you got to be kidding.
[50:56] What does that mean?
[50:57] So you're not allowed to fix it.
[50:58] And you know, the sad thing is that you have guys here that
[51:01] can fix their truck better than the people working in one of the plants
[51:05] where they fix them, who don't know anything.
[51:07] They're mostly kids learning how to fix a truck.
[51:12] And you have these guys they've been fixing.
[51:14] And if they fix their truck, you know why they did that?
[51:17] Because I said, what's the purpose?
[51:18] I sort of figured.
[51:19] But because they're afraid that if you fix it yourself,
[51:23] you'll take off all of that environmental
[51:26] bullshit that they burden your angels with.
[51:28] Oh, sure.
[51:33] Crazy.
[51:34] Crazy.
[51:36] And you'll spew all sorts of bad things into the air.
[51:44] You know, I buy a lot of equipment, too.
[51:46] And I always like to buy stuff.
[51:48] I say to John Deere, I say to a lot of good ones,
[51:50] to borrow a lot of good case.
[51:52] I say, do me a favor.
[51:53] Do you have any 10-year-old lawnmowers that haven't been used yet?
[51:58] I'll buy them all.
[51:59] Because I'll tell you what, you have to go to MIT to turn on a lawnmower now.
[52:06] Now, by the way, don't worry.
[52:07] It's all ended.
[52:08] I got rid of all that crap.
[52:09] So now you can actually.
[52:14] No.
[52:15] Before I came in, you had to go.
[52:18] You had to be a PhD from MIT.
[52:23] You had to be very smart to turn on a lawnmower.
[52:26] I don't want you to have to think too much.
[52:28] I'd like to , or bing.
[52:31] And you know, if the equipment was a little off,
[52:34] you couldn't turn it on.
[52:35] You know that, right?
[52:35] If the environmental equipment showed that it wasn't perfect,
[52:39] you couldn't.
[52:39] You were just stuck.
[52:41] And if you fixed it, they put you in jail.
[52:43] Other than that, it's quite a good system.
[52:45] Now, these people are crazy, I'm telling you.
[52:48] And yet, Barack Hussein Obama would fly to Hawaii to play a round of golf at a 747,
[52:53] spewing old one 35 years.
[52:55] We have a new one now, Beauty.
[52:57] But an old one 35 years.
[52:59] He'd fly to Hawaii, play a round of golf, shoot about 125,
[53:04] and then he'd get into the same plane.
[53:08] He'd fly back.
[53:09] Then he'd have a news conference on the carbon footprint.
[53:14] The carbon footprint is killing us.
[53:17] But that's the way it goes.
[53:19] To protect family farms,
[53:21] we did something that is one of the things I'm most happy about.
[53:24] We eliminated the unfair estate tax or the death tax, right?
[53:34] It's the best thing.
[53:36] And I tell people, we put that in the great big beautiful bill.
[53:42] We didn't get one Democrat vote.
[53:46] We got all Republican votes.
[53:47] It's amazing.
[53:48] We have all these different taxes that we cut, regulations that we cut.
[53:53] It's one of the great...
[53:54] You know, we did, it's actually seven, eight years worth of stuff.
[53:58] We put it all into one.
[53:59] Everyone said, we're crazy.
[54:00] We'll never get it approved.
[54:02] Right, Tim?
[54:03] They all said, I said, let's try and get it all done at one time.
[54:07] From four to eight years, it was all done.
[54:10] If we did nothing else, we had a great success.
[54:13] We put it...
[54:13] That's why we call it the great big bill.
[54:14] It's called it big, but I like the word great.
[54:17] I wish we would have added that.
[54:18] Let's go change.
[54:19] Let's ask an amendment.
[54:21] I call it the great big beautiful bill.
[54:23] And it's got so many things, but it's got all the tax cuts.
[54:26] It should be the great big beautiful tax cut bill.
[54:29] But we have things in there.
[54:32] But one of the things I'm happiest about is
[54:35] if you leave your farm or small business to your children,
[54:39] they don't have to pay estate tax.
[54:41] And what was happening...
[54:46] And what was happening is the parents love their kids,
[54:49] and they'd leave the farm or they'd leave the business.
[54:52] And the assessor comes along.
[54:54] And a lot of times farms are very valuable,
[54:56] but they don't make as much money as the value.
[54:58] So, you know, they're a little...
[55:00] They're really asset rich, but they don't make the money.
[55:04] And the kids would have to go out.
[55:05] They borrow the money.
[55:06] And your friendly banker turns out to be not so friendly.
[55:10] Borrowed the money to pay the tax.
[55:13] Turned out to be not good.
[55:15] And they lose the farm.
[55:16] And in many cases, and I'm not telling you,
[55:19] you know better than anybody,
[55:22] your children would end up committing suicide.
[55:24] You know that.
[55:25] Because they lost their farm that their parents gave them,
[55:28] the farm that they grew up,
[55:29] the farm where they wanted to grow old.
[55:32] And they'll be assessing it.
[55:34] And the state tax is a very high tax, 40%, 50%.
[55:39] It's a massive tax.
[55:40] It's a very bad tax.
[55:41] And I got rid of it.
[55:43] So now you can leave your farms, et cetera, to your children.
[55:47] Right?
[55:48] It's a big thing.
[55:51] And just so you know, the Democrats want to put it back.
[55:56] They're going to put it back.
[55:57] They get in.
[55:57] They're going to put it back.
[55:59] And that's one that's actually a mean one.
[56:01] That's why they call it a death tax.
[56:02] It's a death tax for a lot of reasons.
[56:05] But they want to put all of that stuff back.
[56:06] No tax on tips.
[56:07] No tax on Social Security for your seniors.
[56:11] No tax on overtime.
[56:13] They want to put it all back.
[56:14] If you put them in office, if you vote for them.
[56:17] And Ashley will never be.
[56:19] And your people in Congress, you've sent it up like,
[56:23] oh, you approved it so fast.
[56:25] You guys were so, you were so great.
[56:27] They're warriors, these people.
[56:28] They're great.
[56:29] I know every one of them very well.
[56:31] But that was a big deal.
[56:33] And we have Paul.
[56:36] Is that Paul?
[56:37] Paul.
[56:38] Wow.
[56:39] Paul is here from Border Patrol.
[56:42] He's the boss, and he's a great guy.
[56:44] Get up there.
[56:49] We saw Paul.
[56:51] And he's tough.
[56:56] Come here.
[56:57] Come here.
[57:01] You know, he never heard from the Bordazar.
[57:03] That was Kamala.
[57:05] She was appointed Bordazar by Sleepy Joe.
[57:07] And I said, did you ever hear?
[57:09] No.
[57:10] Did she ever go there?
[57:11] No.
[57:12] But he heard from me every week.
[57:14] I said, Paul, we got to do better.
[57:15] Go ahead, Jacob.
[57:17] Thank you, President Trump.
[57:21] And again, we're in the great state of Iowa,
[57:24] where we have to get Ashley Henson elected into the Senate.
[57:29] And all of these great Republicans that are fighting every day
[57:33] and will continue to fight every day.
[57:35] Yeah, I was able to meet with President Trump
[57:38] during the disastrous administration of Joe Biden, Sleepy Joe.
[57:45] And I told him, I said, President Trump,
[57:49] your agents need you.
[57:51] Your country needs you.
[57:54] Because he is the only man that could do the job.
[57:57] He did it the first time.
[57:59] And for 17 months, we have released zero.
[58:03] Because President Biden destroyed this country.
[58:08] And President Trump came in and said no more.
[58:11] He secured the border once and for all.
[58:13] And we need to continue another successful two years.
[58:19] And we need these people in because President Trump
[58:21] is the greatest president in the history of this country.
[58:24] That's not bad.
[58:37] He did a good job.
[58:38] Wow.
[58:39] He's a great guy, actually.
[58:40] I'll tell you, Border Patrol and ICE and all law enforcement.
[58:43] Boy, I met a lot of your law enforcement backstage.
[58:46] Your sheriffs, your people.
[58:48] They're great.
[58:49] They're great.
[58:50] And you know, we're going to seek the death penalty for anybody
[58:55] that kills a law enforcement official or policeman.
[59:02] Right?
[59:03] Unless you don't want that.
[59:05] Unless you would read.
[59:08] That's great.
[59:09] Thank you very much.
[59:10] You know, we're so proud.
[59:11] We're so proud.
[59:12] These guys are so good.
[59:13] They do such a good job.
[59:14] They don't.
[59:14] I'll tell you, really, people have great respect.
[59:17] You know, you don't feel it because it's so,
[59:20] you know, all the churning that they do back there,
[59:22] all those people.
[59:23] But everyone respects you guys and really loves you a lot.
[59:32] We also gave Iowa an emergency waiver to sell E-15 all year round.
[59:37] And with Ashley in the Senate, we will make it year round E-15.
[59:42] We'll make it permanent.
[59:43] We'll get it done.
[59:44] Right?
[59:44] That's a big deal for them.
[59:47] I settled eight raging wars or soon to be wars.
[59:50] Some of them were just about started.
[59:53] And we're close to, I think, ending two more.
[59:56] I think Russia, Ukraine is getting at that position.
[59:59] I mean, they are.
[1:00:00] They've been fighting a long time.
[1:00:02] You know, they lose on average 25,000 mostly soldiers a month.
[1:00:07] You know that 25,000?
[1:00:08] Think of 25,000 young people every month, just about.
[1:00:14] Last month, it was 32,000.
[1:00:16] But it averages 25,000, 27,000 soldiers die every single month.
[1:00:21] And we're going to have Iran finish very soon.
[1:00:23] One way or the other, it's almost insignificant to me which way.
[1:00:28] But one way or the other, it's going to be done very soon.
[1:00:31] And your gasoline prices and your oil is going to come tumbling down,
[1:00:35] like the day that I spent seven months ago in Iowa looking at the top of the pump.
[1:00:42] And we got all 28 Hamas hostages returned to their families, both living and dead.
[1:00:49] And hundreds before that, we got them all returned.
[1:00:58] And just yesterday, we got Stephen Hubbard back from Russia.
[1:01:02] So Stephen Hubbard was a man who was captured in Russia and put in jail.
[1:01:08] And he stayed in jail for years under Joe Biden.
[1:01:14] But I got him back.
[1:01:15] But it should have never happened.
[1:01:18] And I called President Putin.
[1:01:19] And I said, you know, do us a favor.
[1:01:23] Let us have Stephen Hubbard back.
[1:01:25] He said, I will.
[1:01:27] You will.
[1:01:27] It was very quick, quick.
[1:01:29] And we didn't have to pay six billion dollars like they would do.
[1:01:34] Six billion.
[1:01:34] Remember, they got a few people.
[1:01:36] Six.
[1:01:36] They had the basketball player.
[1:01:38] Remember, we got the basketball player that doesn't stand up for the Olympics.
[1:01:41] Hey, by the way, what's going on with the women's NBA?
[1:01:44] What's that all about?
[1:01:46] You know, they'll destroy themselves before they get started because they just started to do good.
[1:01:55] And you had a player here who was very good, who was very helpful to that.
[1:02:02] No, it's a big deal going on.
[1:02:04] They leave the court when the national anthems play.
[1:02:07] What's that all about?
[1:02:08] You know, the NFL did that for a while.
[1:02:09] And they stopped because people stopped watching the games.
[1:02:14] So I think you should do the same thing with women's basketball unless they get there.
[1:02:23] And what about LeBron James?
[1:02:24] Did you see that deal?
[1:02:26] No, he's doing, during the national anthem, he's practicing his golf swing.
[1:02:33] He's practicing, so what the hell is that?
[1:02:36] No, it's a big scandal kind of a story.
[1:02:38] What's it all about?
[1:02:38] I don't understand it.
[1:02:40] I don't understand it.
[1:02:41] We conducted large numbers of military strikes to smash the drug cartels.
[1:02:46] And we brought the flow of deadly drugs coming in by ocean.
[1:02:50] Think of this, coming in by ocean, it's down by 97%.
[1:02:54] That's 97%.
[1:03:02] And drugs are about 18 years, 19 years now.
[1:03:07] They're at the lowest level coming in through Mexico.
[1:03:10] But by water, a lot of them were coming in by water, down 97%.
[1:03:15] And we're trying to figure out who are the 3% because I happen to consider them
[1:03:19] to be among the bravest people anywhere in the world.
[1:03:22] We've destroyed the fishing industry all over the place.
[1:03:25] Nobody wants to go fishing anymore.
[1:03:26] That's the only problem.
[1:03:28] But we used to take them into a Miami court and they'd be freed immediately.
[1:03:33] Not us.
[1:03:34] I mean, for years, nothing happened.
[1:03:36] It's amazing.
[1:03:37] So we're down 97%.
[1:03:39] We're down about 62% overall and getting better.
[1:03:42] The land is the easy part.
[1:03:43] The water was the hardest part.
[1:03:45] And we took care of it with those missile shots.
[1:03:47] And, you know, you feel terribly.
[1:03:48] It's tough.
[1:03:49] But each one of those boats would kill 5,000 to 10,000 people and destroy families.
[1:03:55] So when you hear that, you feel a lot better.
[1:03:57] I got most favored nation agreements to reduce the cost of many prescription drugs from the
[1:04:02] highest drug prices anywhere in the world to the lowest drug prices anywhere in the world.
[1:04:09] We now have the lowest drug prices and we'll be reducing the drug prices by 50 to 90%.
[1:04:17] My first term, I got one eighth of one percent.
[1:04:19] First time in 28 years that they went down.
[1:04:22] One eighth of one percent.
[1:04:23] I thought it was great.
[1:04:24] I had a news conference, but now it's down 50 to 90.
[1:04:27] Think of it.
[1:04:28] We had the highest drug prices in the world and we now have the lowest drug prices.
[1:04:34] And nobody else could have done that.
[1:04:38] And we abolished all discriminatory diversity, equity and inclusion policies throughout the
[1:04:43] federal government.
[1:04:47] We got critical race theory and transgender insanity the hell out of our schools and military.
[1:04:56] And we made English the official language of the United States of America.
[1:05:05] They love that.
[1:05:07] They love that.
[1:05:08] That's a big deal.
[1:05:10] I don't know.
[1:05:11] They love that.
[1:05:11] Everybody always gets a big hand.
[1:05:14] Our country is doing so well, and this is important, that under Republican leadership,
[1:05:20] that only I can make this promise.
[1:05:23] I mean, I'm the only one the Democrats can't make this promise.
[1:05:27] If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate, I am going to give all adult citizens,
[1:05:35] including those from a place called Iowa.
[1:05:39] Man and wife.
[1:05:40] Man and wife, if you're married, we're going to give everybody one, just one big hit.
[1:05:48] $5,000.
[1:05:49] So if you're a man and wife, it's five and five.
[1:05:57] And only a Republican can do that because Democrats aren't able to.
[1:06:02] They're not taking in any amount of money.
[1:06:05] They have no tariffs.
[1:06:06] They have no anything.
[1:06:08] We have record-setting economic success, like I just explained tonight.
[1:06:13] But the Democrat policies won't allow this to happen.
[1:06:16] In fact, the exact opposite will happen.
[1:06:18] If the Democrats win, you will have a 1929.
[1:06:22] And I hope this, first of all, I hope they don't win.
[1:06:25] But if they do, you're going to have a 1929-style economic depression,
[1:06:30] because their policies are so stupid.
[1:06:34] They're almost like if you think about some of the transgender policies,
[1:06:38] or the men playing in women's sports, or the open borders.
[1:06:42] I'm good at finance.
[1:06:43] I've always been great at finance.
[1:06:45] Their policies will lead to a massive recession,
[1:06:49] but more likely a depression.
[1:06:50] Our country will be practically finished.
[1:06:52] If the Republicans win, you'll each have $5,000 in your pocket,
[1:06:57] an economic success for our country like we have never, ever seen before.
[1:07:02] And remember, just recently,
[1:07:09] I gave all members of the United States military $1,776, right?
[1:07:16] And everyone said, oh, it can't be done.
[1:07:20] You can't do it.
[1:07:20] It won't be done.
[1:07:21] You can't do it.
[1:07:22] Well, I did it.
[1:07:23] And in fact, it was $1,775, the generals.
[1:07:26] I said, generals, I want to give them a bonus.
[1:07:28] They've been so great.
[1:07:29] Tell me what we can do.
[1:07:30] So they came back at $1,775.
[1:07:33] True.
[1:07:34] They came back.
[1:07:35] They said, sir.
[1:07:37] These three guys were so handsome.
[1:07:38] I hate handsome men.
[1:07:39] I've always hated them.
[1:07:41] No, they're like central casting, four-star guys.
[1:07:44] They said, we have too many four-stars.
[1:07:46] You know, we have more four-stars than we had during the Second World War.
[1:07:49] So if you notice, we've cut back slightly.
[1:07:51] We have to do that.
[1:07:53] But we only cut back the bad ones, so worry about it.
[1:07:56] But I said, generals, what do you think?
[1:07:58] $1,775.
[1:08:00] I said, do you think we could scrounge up one more dollar?
[1:08:04] And then we're at $1,776.
[1:08:06] Yes, you can.
[1:08:08] And that money was given a year ago.
[1:08:11] And to this day, everybody, every time they see me, they say, sir, thank you very much.
[1:08:17] I know what they're talking about.
[1:08:18] $1,776.
[1:08:20] And the $5,000 dividend is approximately, think of it only.
[1:08:25] It's a lot.
[1:08:26] But it's $1 trillion.
[1:08:27] But we have a record setting $22.2 trillion that's being invested in our country.
[1:08:32] So when you think of it, we are the number one growth country anywhere in the world.
[1:08:38] Growth.
[1:08:40] The only caveat on the, let's call it the Trump dividend, is that you have to spend the money in
[1:08:46] the United States of America.
[1:08:51] We don't want you going to China.
[1:08:54] We don't want you going to Japan.
[1:08:56] We don't want you going to France.
[1:08:57] Would anyone like to go to France?
[1:08:59] Boy, they better straighten that out fast.
[1:09:04] Look, that's what's going to happen if you put the radical left lunatics in here,
[1:09:09] like the people that these two great people are running against.
[1:09:12] You put them in, and that's what you're going to have.
[1:09:14] That's what they have.
[1:09:15] They have an immigration.
[1:09:17] They'd like to say, oh, yes, these are high school.
[1:09:19] They're not high school students.
[1:09:21] They don't like the way the high schools run.
[1:09:23] Such crap.
[1:09:25] It's immigration.
[1:09:25] It's a huge immigration.
[1:09:27] You're going to have it.
[1:09:28] And it's all radical left.
[1:09:29] You know the way they like to blame the right?
[1:09:31] I'll tell you what.
[1:09:33] These are left problems.
[1:09:34] And I've never seen that.
[1:09:36] Those are beyond right.
[1:09:39] So if you'd like, I think, should we make a special waiver, Tim, where if somebody really
[1:09:46] wants to go to France, they can spend their 5,000 in France?
[1:09:50] Tim Scott said no.
[1:09:52] That's the end of that, right?
[1:09:54] The choice in this election is very simple.
[1:09:57] You can vote for the radical left Democrat communists to loot your wealth, raise your
[1:10:02] taxes by $5 trillion, annihilate your borders, decimate Iowa's farms and factories, mutilate
[1:10:09] your children, and give 25 million illegal aliens amnesty and the right to vote.
[1:10:14] That's what they want.
[1:10:15] They want to give them the right to vote.
[1:10:17] They want to give them amnesty.
[1:10:20] Or you can defeat the Democrat communists and vote for more money in your pockets,
[1:10:24] bigger paychecks for your families, lower taxes, less crime, a booming Iowa economy,
[1:10:31] and no amnesty for your illegal aliens.
[1:10:33] You must vote.
[1:10:35] To get that, you must vote Republican.
[1:10:37] Republican.
[1:10:38] Gotta vote for Republicans.
[1:10:43] I think we're going to have a very big...
[1:10:48] If you guys vote, again, if you guys vote, we're going to have a very...
[1:10:52] You gotta get to vote.
[1:10:53] You gotta remember, I'm on the ballot.
[1:10:55] Just because I am on the ballot, really, it's our stuff.
[1:10:57] It's going to be taken away.
[1:10:58] If we don't win, it's going to be taken away.
[1:11:01] So I am really on the ballot, but you gotta get it.
[1:11:04] If you get out and vote like you did in 2024, we win in the landslide, you know.
[1:11:08] We win in the landslide.
[1:11:13] So every single Democrat in college voted against our tax cuts.
[1:11:18] Every single one of them voted against our tax cuts, our no tax on tips,
[1:11:24] no tax on overtime for our seniors.
[1:11:27] Every single one.
[1:11:28] We didn't have...
[1:11:29] Think of this.
[1:11:30] You have no tax on overtime.
[1:11:32] Why would you...
[1:11:33] You have no tax on social security for our seniors.
[1:11:38] No tax on tips.
[1:11:39] Why would you vote against that?
[1:11:41] But they voted against.
[1:11:42] And you know, it's driven our economy.
[1:11:43] Many, many more people.
[1:11:45] The overtime is great.
[1:11:46] The one that seems to be...
[1:11:48] Which is your favorite?
[1:11:49] Ready?
[1:11:50] No tax on tips.
[1:11:55] They don't tip farm workers that much, right?
[1:11:58] You're more traditional.
[1:11:59] Give me a check, right?
[1:12:01] So not a lot of tipping, right?
[1:12:03] All right.
[1:12:04] No tax on overtime.
[1:12:10] No tax on social security for our seniors.
[1:12:19] That's generally the one.
[1:12:21] But they voted against voter ID because they want to cheat.
[1:12:24] They voted against proof of citizenship because they want to cheat.
[1:12:29] They voted against securing the border.
[1:12:31] They voted, can you believe?
[1:12:33] I built the wall 2,000 miles and they voted against.
[1:12:37] We had to build.
[1:12:38] We had to use the military.
[1:12:39] You couldn't get it.
[1:12:40] They wouldn't approve it.
[1:12:41] And they've said openly they're not going to do anything to enhance.
[1:12:44] They want to open the wall.
[1:12:46] They want to have the people.
[1:12:47] We lived in hell.
[1:12:48] I tell you, if you were on the Texas border,
[1:12:50] if you were in Arizona, if you were in New America, what a good name.
[1:13:00] You know, I changed the name of a place called the Gulf of Mexico.
[1:13:03] You may have heard.
[1:13:07] I changed the name from the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.
[1:13:12] And people love it.
[1:13:14] And I also changed the name of a beautiful lake that fronts a little bit on Ocanada.
[1:13:26] And we now call that Lake America.
[1:13:29] I wouldn't say the Canada and Mexico are thrilled.
[1:13:36] The Mexican president called me.
[1:13:39] She said, no, no, no.
[1:13:41] Tell me it's not true.
[1:13:42] Please.
[1:13:43] She's a beautiful woman, a very elegant, beautiful voice all the time.
[1:13:47] I say, you have such a beautiful voice.
[1:13:49] No, no, no, president.
[1:13:50] Please, please tell me it's not true.
[1:13:52] No, no, it's true.
[1:13:53] It is true.
[1:13:54] Actually, that's the Gulf of America.
[1:13:57] You know, we have 93% of the front, and they have 7%.
[1:14:00] So it never made sense to me, Tim.
[1:14:02] They voted in favor of the worst inflation.
[1:14:05] And by the way, speaking of that, so we have right now, we really have a straight.
[1:14:10] I'm thinking about calling the straight, the Hormone straight, the Trump straight.
[1:14:13] I think the Arabs would be right.
[1:14:14] How do you think Abdul El-Sayed would feel about that?
[1:14:26] He would be thrilled.
[1:14:28] He would be thrilled for our country, wouldn't he?
[1:14:32] No, but we have a lake.
[1:14:36] Great lake.
[1:14:37] Wow.
[1:14:38] One of the five great lakes.
[1:14:40] And we have a gulf.
[1:14:42] Now I need an ocean and a river.
[1:14:44] So I was thinking about the Hudson River, but I don't think I can get away.
[1:14:50] Then I was thinking about how about the Mississippi, the mighty Mississippi.
[1:14:53] But we won Mississippi by 38 points.
[1:14:56] I don't think I'm going to do that one, right, Ashley?
[1:14:58] I don't think Ashley will approve that one.
[1:15:01] So we're looking for a river.
[1:15:03] But the two that I really like are the Mississippi and the Hudson.
[1:15:07] And I don't have the courage to do this.
[1:15:09] I think they're safe.
[1:15:11] But we're also looking for an ocean.
[1:15:12] And the only two that qualify, because I always like the biggest and the best.
[1:15:16] So the only two that qualify are the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean.
[1:15:19] And I think if I said ocean, well, let's see.
[1:15:26] Well, the ocean of the Americas.
[1:15:30] I don't like it's too long.
[1:15:32] The American Ocean, oh, the American Ocean.
[1:15:35] And let's say, ladies and gentlemen, I'm pleased to announce that on Monday morning,
[1:15:40] we'll be changing the name of the Atlantic Ocean to the American Ocean.
[1:15:44] How do you think our friends in Europe?
[1:15:52] I actually called up Sundar from Google.
[1:15:55] You know, Google Maps is a big deal.
[1:15:57] You get it on Google, but it's done.
[1:15:59] But I called up Sundar.
[1:16:01] So I got the lake and I got the Gulf.
[1:16:03] They said, Sundar.
[1:16:04] I was only kidding.
[1:16:06] I have a new one.
[1:16:07] I actually sent him a picture of the Atlantic Ocean called the American Ocean.
[1:16:11] And he actually called me and said, sir, this has to stop.
[1:16:16] He said, this has to stop.
[1:16:17] He thought I was, you know, I was just kidding.
[1:16:19] But that would be a tough one.
[1:16:22] But you never know in life, do you?
[1:16:25] In favor of transgender mutualization, that's these people that you're thinking about,
[1:16:31] may be voting for.
[1:16:32] But they want to do all of those things.
[1:16:34] On election night, Iowa is going to prove that America does not belong to those who hate it.
[1:16:40] America belongs to those who love it.
[1:16:42] And that's you.
[1:16:45] And Ashley Henson is all that stands between the people of Iowa and communists controlling
[1:16:52] the United States Senate.
[1:16:53] That one vote is just like, I can't tell you how important,
[1:16:57] which they'll use to open your borders and set loose criminals into your country
[1:17:01] and destroy your second amendment.
[1:17:03] They want to take away, you know, they want to pack the court.
[1:17:05] They want to expand the Supreme Court for a very specific reason in order to
[1:17:11] knock out your second amendment.
[1:17:13] I've been fighting for the second amendment.
[1:17:15] We haven't touched it.
[1:17:16] And if you think that wasn't easy.
[1:17:18] And Tim Scott has been helping.
[1:17:20] That is not one of our easy chores, is it?
[1:17:23] But Ashley has an A rating from the NRA and is endorsed by the Iowa Farm Bureau.
[1:17:29] And frankly, she's always calling me and asking me for things like for Iowa.
[1:17:38] Sir, could you give a little bit more money to the farmers?
[1:17:41] I said, this woman is such a pain.
[1:17:43] But ultimately, that's nice, I guess.
[1:17:46] But no, she's a fantastic woman.
[1:17:49] She's going to be great.
[1:17:50] She's replacing somebody who's been a fantastic friend.
[1:17:53] Joni, thank you very much.
[1:17:54] You've been a fantastic friend of mine.
[1:17:56] So, Ashley, come on up, please.
[1:18:07] Well, hey, Iowans.
[1:18:10] We are ready to make sure we do not send Josh Turek to the U.S. Senate in 12 days, aren't we?
[1:18:15] We're going to make sure he doesn't get that promotion.
[1:18:19] The president already said it, right?
[1:18:21] But Josh Turek's record is too liberal for Iowa.
[1:18:24] He wants illegal immigrants to have those benefits.
[1:18:26] He wants asylum in this country.
[1:18:28] He's talked about it.
[1:18:29] He wants our kids to be able to change their pronouns at school.
[1:18:32] So there's never a good time to elect a tax and spend liberal to the U.S. Senate.
[1:18:36] Now would be the worst time.
[1:18:37] We're going to keep Iowa red and keep Iowa Iowa.
[1:18:40] Thank you so much.
[1:18:41] And by the way, Chuck Grassley is here someplace.
[1:18:55] I want to just say thank you.
[1:18:57] That's such he's great.
[1:18:58] We took a picture backstage and it was great with his beautiful wife.
[1:19:02] Thank you, Chuck, wherever you may be.
[1:19:04] Thank you.
[1:19:05] Thank you very much.
[1:19:08] You also need to defeat radical Democrat Rob Sand.
[1:19:12] He's a disaster for government.
[1:19:14] And by the way, he wants to raise your taxes by $7,500.
[1:19:20] He wants to take away your guns and your Second Amendment.
[1:19:24] He's in favor of transgender mutilization.
[1:19:27] And your borders will be wide open for criminals to pour into,
[1:19:31] just like they did just a couple of years ago.
[1:19:34] That's not going to happen with your man.
[1:19:36] You need to go vote for a businessman who will cut your property taxes very substantially,
[1:19:41] lower your gas prices, support our police, and keep criminals behind bars.
[1:19:46] Your next governor, Zach Lane.
[1:19:49] Thank you all, Mr. President.
[1:20:04] Thank you for coming to Iowa.
[1:20:05] Thank you.
[1:20:08] Let me just tell you something.
[1:20:10] Let me tell you why we're thankful for this.
[1:20:13] Because this president has been fighting to preserve the culture of the United States of America.
[1:20:18] That's why.
[1:20:22] Fighting for voter ID.
[1:20:24] Fighting to secure the border.
[1:20:26] Fighting to protect and defend the United States of America so it doesn't become France.
[1:20:30] So Iowa does not become Minnesota or Illinois.
[1:20:34] We are here to defend the culture of the United States of America.
[1:20:37] And Donald Trump is defending that culture.
[1:20:39] But, Mr. President, I'm running against a weird one.
[1:20:49] He's a guy who, after college, became an underwear model.
[1:20:53] Did you know this?
[1:20:54] He didn't know this.
[1:20:55] He didn't know it.
[1:20:57] It's true.
[1:20:57] It's true.
[1:20:58] You know, he supports all the things you said.
[1:21:01] Gun control, transgender surgeries, giving illegal immigrants benefits.
[1:21:06] Wants to give them our tax dollars.
[1:21:08] Look, we are here to defend Iowa.
[1:21:11] That's why all of you are here.
[1:21:13] And my promise to you is that I'm going to defend the culture of this state.
[1:21:16] And defend your children and grandchildren against this craziness.
[1:21:20] Thank you all for being here.
[1:21:30] Thank you very much, Zach.
[1:21:32] And part of that culture, Zach, is that we're going to keep Iowa number one.
[1:21:37] You're going to be in number one place.
[1:21:39] When you go to that, you're going to get out and vote.
[1:21:42] Because to me, that's a part of the culture.
[1:21:43] It's been, you know, there's that movement to move you back, way back.
[1:21:48] And it's not happening.
[1:21:49] So we're going to keep you number one.
[1:21:50] That really is a part of culture, as far as I'm concerned.
[1:21:53] Political culture.
[1:21:54] You also need to vote for Joe Mitchell for the second congressional district.
[1:21:59] And Chris, you know what?
[1:22:02] Come on up here, fellas.
[1:22:03] Chris McGowan here in the fourth district.
[1:22:05] And Brenna Byrd from Iowa.
[1:22:08] Attorney General has been my fan.
[1:22:09] And we love Brenna right such an early endorsement.
[1:22:13] And again, I want to thank Chuck Grassley.
[1:22:16] He's been great.
[1:22:17] I want to thank Chuck.
[1:22:18] And I want to thank Joni.
[1:22:20] And I want to thank Tim Scott for being here from South Carolina.
[1:22:23] Because he's great.
[1:22:23] And you met Paul Perez.
[1:22:30] And he's like just, you don't find a better human being.
[1:22:33] A man, he's fantastic.
[1:22:34] And we have Representative Rick Crawford here.
[1:22:38] Come on up, Rick.
[1:22:39] You've got to come up.
[1:22:39] You're so good.
[1:22:41] Come on up.
[1:22:43] Iowa GOP Chair Jeff Kaufman.
[1:22:45] Jeff, thank you.
[1:22:46] Great job.
[1:22:46] Your son is fantastic.
[1:22:49] My friend, the first one to endorse me in the whole United States.
[1:22:53] He's, I call him the Marlboro Man.
[1:22:54] He's this handsome guy.
[1:22:56] His handsome guy.
[1:22:57] Senator Brad Zahn.
[1:22:59] Where's Brad?
[1:23:00] The Marlboro Man.
[1:23:01] Look at him.
[1:23:02] He looks so good.
[1:23:04] Everyone wants to look like that.
[1:23:06] He's like the Marlboro Man.
[1:23:09] Senators, state senators, Lynn Evans and Kevin Allons.
[1:23:13] Thank you very much for being here.
[1:23:19] And state representative, Brooke Bowden.
[1:23:22] Thank you, Brooke, wherever you may be.
[1:23:23] There you are.
[1:23:24] Hi, Brooke.
[1:23:24] Thank you.
[1:23:26] And the chairman of the Export-Import Bank,
[1:23:29] a real brilliant guy, John Yovanovitch.
[1:23:34] Where's John?
[1:23:35] John Yovanovitch.
[1:23:37] He has done some job.
[1:23:40] And the RNC chairman, Joe Gruters, who's a powerful guy.
[1:23:46] I think you're going to have a great November 3rd.
[1:23:48] And former Iowa Hawkeyes linebacker, Zach Tweet.
[1:23:53] Boy, oh, boy.
[1:23:55] This guy is in seriously good shape.
[1:23:58] I said, who the hell is that guy?
[1:24:00] I didn't ask that with you.
[1:24:01] I didn't ask that with you.
[1:24:02] I said, who the hell was that guy?
[1:24:04] He came in and shook my hand.
[1:24:06] That's central casting.
[1:24:07] Was he a very good player, I guess?
[1:24:09] I would think so.
[1:24:10] Physically, I would think he had no problem.
[1:24:13] But thank you very much, Zach.
[1:24:15] We appreciate it.
[1:24:16] Very good.
[1:24:16] I heard you had a great career.
[1:24:17] Everyone here today is part of the greatest movement in the history of our country.
[1:24:22] And it's an honor to be with these people.
[1:24:24] I'd like to maybe ask a couple of them.
[1:24:26] And maybe I'd ask you have something, I think.
[1:24:29] Well, Mr. President, this is far larger than any No Kings rally I've ever seen.
[1:24:38] Isn't that true?
[1:24:43] Mr. President, you've won the state three times.
[1:24:46] And judging by this crowd, you win it a fourth time if you ran again, okay?
[1:24:50] I think so.
[1:24:54] You went to D.C. to clean up Biden's mess.
[1:24:57] And finally, it's a respectable city.
[1:24:59] It's a safe city.
[1:25:00] And it's finally a clean city.
[1:25:02] Can we admit that?
[1:25:07] Thank God you're building the ballroom.
[1:25:09] Thank God you're getting rid of those awful bike lanes, by the way.
[1:25:12] We don't ride bicycles tonight.
[1:25:14] We ride Harley-Davidson's.
[1:25:15] Isn't that true?
[1:25:18] This gentleman up here, he's not riding a bicycle board, are you?
[1:25:21] He's riding a Harley.
[1:25:22] So I wanted to say, Mr. President, for the last 10 years,
[1:25:26] you kept this country more safe than any other president ever, ever.
[1:25:32] And they've never given you the Nobel Peace Prize, by the way, which is a disgrace.
[1:25:42] So what I came up with, Mr. President, is a new award.
[1:25:45] It's called the Man of the Century Award, okay?
[1:25:50] It's the Man of the Century Award.
[1:25:53] And I'm going to hold this up for the artificial media to see.
[1:25:57] CNN, zoom in right here, CNN, okay?
[1:26:00] Because this man has been more for humanity and for America than any other president ever.
[1:26:08] Thank you, Mr. President, for being here.
[1:26:10] Thank you for supporting Iowa.
[1:26:12] And thank you for being the greatest president we've ever had.
[1:26:15] I just want to say, as a hometown kid, how proud I am to call Sioux City, Iowa,
[1:26:37] and the Siouxland tri-state region of Iowa, Nebraska, and South Dakota, my hometown.
[1:26:43] And I'm enormously pleased with this evening's turnout.
[1:26:56] It's gone a little bit late.
[1:26:58] But folks, if we show this enthusiasm between now and through November 3rd,
[1:27:05] we're going to keep Iowa red.
[1:27:07] And that's the commitment that we need to make to President Donald J. Trump.
[1:27:12] Well, you're pretty tall here, Mr. President.
[1:27:22] Hold on here.
[1:27:23] I got a short one coming up here.
[1:27:25] So I want to say this, Mr. President, thank you so much for coming to Iowa.
[1:27:30] When you came here four years ago, when I was running against a 40-year Democrat incumbent,
[1:27:35] your visit to this part of the state made the difference.
[1:27:39] Thank you.
[1:27:39] Because we know when Western Iowa turns out, we win, don't we?
[1:27:43] We win.
[1:27:44] And thank you, President Trump, for supporting our law enforcement,
[1:27:54] our brave men and women who keep us safe.
[1:27:56] Thank you.
[1:28:01] And let me end with this.
[1:28:04] Vote early, not often, or you're going to hear from me as a prosecutor.
[1:28:08] Okay?
[1:28:09] Thank you.
[1:28:10] Thank you.
[1:28:18] Great people.
[1:28:19] I work with them, and they are fantastic.
[1:28:22] So as you can see, we're doing really well.
[1:28:25] And I thought I'd do something which is a little unusual,
[1:28:28] but we'll put up two quick charts that will play for you.
[1:28:32] And they're done by CNN.
[1:28:33] So it means a lot because they never do anything good.
[1:28:36] And you'll see what I'm talking about.
[1:28:38] Please.
[1:28:40] Okay.
[1:28:40] MAGA GOP on Trump.
[1:28:42] In the 2024 election versus Kamala Harris, he got 99% of the MAGA GOP vote.
[1:28:47] Perhaps surprisingly, I might have thought it'd be 100%, but it was 99%.
[1:28:52] Compare that to his approval rating now with the MAGA GOP.
[1:28:55] It's 98%.
[1:28:56] That is, there's been no real decline in MAGA support.
[1:29:00] These folks say that they're going to vote for congressional Republicans come the midterm
[1:29:04] elections.
[1:29:05] Again, that's the 99% that Trump got against Kamala Harris.
[1:29:08] Look now, in terms of the congressional vote, 98% of them say they're going to be voting for
[1:29:13] House Republican candidates.
[1:29:14] So that support is actually really holding up strong.
[1:29:17] It's really, really strong when it comes to MAGA GOP and the Republicans holding onto that vote.
[1:29:23] I love this one.
[1:29:24] Okay.
[1:29:24] The president Republicans most admire.
[1:29:27] It's Donald Trump.
[1:29:28] This is a historic comparison.
[1:29:30] A majority of Republicans say 53% say he's the Republican president they most admire.
[1:29:35] Ronald Reagan, who traditionally has won that much.
[1:29:37] Donald Trump nearly triples up on this.
[1:29:40] Reagan at just 18%.
[1:29:42] And then Abraham Lincoln, who by most historic accounts is the greatest president of all time.
[1:29:47] But Republicans say that the president that they most admire by what is this, this is six,
[1:29:52] seven times as many, Donald John Trump at 53%, easily crushing Abe Lincoln at 8%.
[1:29:58] And the Elon poll showed that he was the greatest president as well.
[1:30:00] Donald Trump.
[1:30:01] I feel like this slide might end up on a printout on his desk.
[1:30:09] Well, thank you.
[1:30:10] And a person is here who is, who is fantastic.
[1:30:14] I want to just say hello and acknowledge Senator Tim Scott's wife.
[1:30:19] Because he's working every night.
[1:30:21] He follows me around.
[1:30:22] So thank you.
[1:30:23] Thank you very much for being here.
[1:30:25] Appreciate it.
[1:30:26] Beautiful wife.
[1:30:27] So in conclusion, if you elect a Republican House and a Republican Senator November 3rd,
[1:30:35] we will do things for you.
[1:30:37] You're going to be very, very happy.
[1:30:38] We will win our war on corruption and fraud and let our great vice president keep doing his job.
[1:30:45] He's doing a fantastic job.
[1:30:47] He's fining billions and billions of dollars.
[1:30:50] We will pass the no invasion of our country act prohibiting any future president from ever
[1:30:56] opening our border to illegal immigrants again.
[1:31:00] That was an invasion.
[1:31:04] That was like a military invasion.
[1:31:06] We're never going to let that happen again.
[1:31:09] We will ban sanctuary cities and pass the death penalty for large-scale drug dealers,
[1:31:15] human traffickers, and anyone who kills a police officer or a member of law enforcement.
[1:31:24] And we will pass voter identification, proof of citizenship, and the Save America Act
[1:31:29] to defend our sacred American electorate.
[1:31:33] And we will enshrine in permanent law no men in women's sports and no transgender
[1:31:41] mutilization of your children.
[1:31:46] And ladies and gentlemen of Iowa, what a great place.
[1:31:51] And I want to thank you for all the support you've given me over the years.
[1:31:54] It's incredible.
[1:31:55] And I'm giving you a lot, and I'll continue.
[1:31:58] The golden age of America is upon us, but you must go out.
[1:32:02] You must vote.
[1:32:03] You must vote, frankly, Republican.
[1:32:06] If you're going to vote Democrat, don't bother.
[1:32:08] Anybody in here going to vote Democrat, I wonder.
[1:32:12] We've already made unbelievable progress, and now we will reach new levels of greatness.
[1:32:17] We will.
[1:32:17] We're going to reach new levels.
[1:32:19] There's never been anything like what we've done.
[1:32:22] It's my honor to be your president during such an exciting period of time in our country.
[1:32:27] And, you know, we've been doing this together for really together.
[1:32:33] It's the same vote.
[1:32:33] You see that just now?
[1:32:35] The 99, 98.
[1:32:37] It's the same vote.
[1:32:38] The same great warriors, the same great people that built our nation.
[1:32:42] But we've been doing it for 11 years, and there's never been anything like it.
[1:32:46] And there never will be anything like it.
[1:32:48] It's something the world has probably never seen before, and maybe we'll never see again.
[1:32:53] It's what we've done together as a group.
[1:32:56] I mean, because it's the United States of America.
[1:32:58] It's not like a small country, maybe.
[1:33:00] But this is the United States of America, and there's never been anything like it.
[1:33:04] So let's go out and do what we do best, which is to win on November 3rd.
[1:33:09] We do it the best.
[1:33:11] And let's make the next two years bigger, better, and stronger than ever before,
[1:33:22] because we will make America powerful again.
[1:33:29] We will make America wealthy again.
[1:33:34] We will make America healthy again.
[1:33:39] We will make America strong again.
[1:33:43] We will make America proud again.
[1:33:48] We will make America safe again.
[1:33:52] And most importantly, we will make America great again.
[1:33:58] Thank you, Iowa.
[1:34:00] Thank you.
[1:34:00] God bless you all.
[1:34:02] Thank you.
[1:34:03] Thank you.
[1:34:04] Thank you.
