"That's a heck of an airplane. At our age, Ron, we've got to take it easy on the staircases, you know. Yeah, that's interesting. He looks very official and making sure that stairway lines up. Yeah, I don't think the president has to worry about, you know, going through TSA, security, anything like..."

[0:00] That's a heck of an airplane. [0:02] At our age, Ron, we've got to take it easy on the staircases, you know. [2:35] Yeah, that's interesting. [2:39] He looks very official and making sure that stairway lines up. [2:44] Yeah, I don't think the president has to worry about, you know, going through TSA, security, anything like that. [2:50] He's just going to waltz right out there, and there's going to be a – there comes the limo to the right. [2:54] It's just about to pull up the limousine, presidential limousine, about to pull up here. [3:00] There you go. [3:01] There you go. [3:02] Just like Ron's car out in the parking lot. [3:52] Oh, gosh. [3:54] 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 – I mean, 13, 14, SWAT truck, fire – I'd say about – yeah, yeah, at least that. [4:05] So the fancy ones, though, 1, 2, 3 – the first four are either two limos and then 1, 2, 3 fancy SUVs, Suburbans. [4:19] You've got the Vans. [4:20] Yeah, I've heard the press – the press can be on there, but the press has to pay, Celeste. [4:29] I don't know if you found that doing your homework, but the press has to pay to be on Air Force One. [4:34] I don't know what the budget is at Fox 10 for something like that. [4:38] Maybe you can help me look into that. [4:40] I don't know. [4:40] I'd just like to take a look around in there. [4:44] Oh, good to know. [4:46] Well, if you – well, I was just going to say – I don't know if you can tell, but – so it looks like the president's going to go down the staircase and ride into that limousine. [4:57] I mean, he won't be anywhere near us, and that engine's way too loud probably to shout out anything that – audible. [5:03] But, yeah, just letting you know. [5:05] It looks like he's going to make a quick getaway here. [5:34] Maybe Mike knows. [5:35] I've always wondered where the quarters of the president are on the plane. [5:39] Is it – I assume it's not toward the back. [5:41] Is it up in that second-floor job thing there, or is it just the front few seats is kind of an office area? [5:48] I don't know if Mike knows that. [5:56] I would imagine. [6:11] Right, right. [6:17] Yeah, and they're right by those huge engines. [6:20] Finally – I finally worked up the nerve to look at my 401k today. [8:59] It's been weeks, and it's, like, right back where it was pretty much before all of this started. [9:06] I'm going over to talk to the press here. [10:09] Going to answer a few questions. [10:11] Yeah. [10:11] Is there a Fox reporter over there? [10:58] And there he goes. [11:01] There he goes. [11:01] He left, guys. [11:02] Going back to the car now. [11:03] All right. [11:10] He's in the limo. [11:11] The door is shut. [11:56] Away they go. [11:56] I'm not sure exactly where they're going. [11:58] They're heading to the west. [11:59] I'm sure they're going to take a quick left here around some beige nondescript building that I can't quite make at. [12:06] Nope, they're going to circle. [12:07] My bad. [12:08] I circle. [12:08] I don't know where they're going, to be honest with you. [12:11] Let's see. [12:12] Going back behind the plane now? [12:16] Maybe he wants a better view of Paiestua Peak. [12:18] I'm not sure. [12:19] She's raising a young family in a way she didn't dream of. [14:33] She is continuing Charlie's mission and bringing many young students along with her. [14:40] Anyone who criticizes Erica for how she grieves or how she moves forward should pause and think for a minute about the humanity of that. [14:57] Many people claim to be caring and compassionate, when in fact they are incredibly judgmental. [15:08] So many loved our friend Charlie and so many loved Erica. [15:17] Goodness will always outshine the darkness. [15:21] Charlie knew exactly who he was marrying. [15:33] A strong, smart, beautiful soul inside and out. [15:39] I know he is immensely proud of Erica and how she is carrying on. [15:45] I have often said Charlie was the younger version of Rush. [15:58] The next generation of Rush Limbaugh. [16:01] In fact, I am certain they are both sitting together in heaven right now, engaged in a deep conversation [16:16] about Iran and our incredible United States military, the greatest fighting force for Paiestua Peak in the world, [16:28] possibly what should be done for the midterms. [16:37] They are also likely working on a better radio deal in heaven. [16:45] Men shared such profound talent and wisdom. [16:55] Both used their intelligence and wit to connect with people of all backgrounds. [17:04] Many things that made Charlie and Rush unique was their ability to talk to you and not at you. [17:13] They encouraged everyone who would listen to think for themselves. [17:21] They presented facts so that you could form your own opinions. [17:27] Both loved this country with all of their hearts. [17:31] They stood for freedom and freedom of speech. [17:37] Charlie and Rush are simply irreplaceable. [17:43] But their lessons live on through all of us. [17:47] We must continue to share these lessons with as many as possible. [17:56] Both Charlie and Rush wanted young Americans to know how miraculous our country is. [18:05] They wanted to explain to those who agreed and those who didn't. [18:10] Some of whom were outside on my way in. [18:14] They needed better signs, by the way. [18:17] But we'll work on that for them. [18:19] We wanted to explain to those who agreed and those who didn't why the United States of America is worth protecting and valuing. [18:35] They knew, as we do, that every American has the opportunity to better their circumstance, no matter what. [18:46] No matter the color of your skin, or gender, or where you started in life, or what you're told you can't do. [18:56] As an American, you have the chance for a brighter future, and the chance to go after your dreams simply because you are an American. [19:09] There are endless stories of Americans who started in actual ghettos, in true poverty, and rose to leave industries. [19:19] Those are the stories that need to be told over and over young girls can achieve anything that they strive for in this country. [19:31] Charlie and Rush recognized our country's history is flawed and not perfect. [19:48] However, despite any imperfections, we as a country have made tremendous strides over these decades to right our wrongs. [20:00] There are so many examples of this. [20:03] Those examples should also be told over and over. [20:08] However, our country is made up of countless everyday heroes doing extraordinary things [20:17] who showcase we as American people represent much more goodness than evil, and always will. [20:28] It is important that we hold on to the principles that Charlie and Rush stood for [20:38] At the very base of that is freedom of speech. [20:45] I encourage you all to use your minds, especially young people. [20:51] Continue to seek the truth. [20:54] Use your voice to share with others. [20:57] I encourage you not to just go with the flow or what may be trendy in social media for that minute. [21:04] Charlie and Rush showed us the incredible impact one life can have on this world and the difference that one life can make. [21:18] Know that you as an individual matter in this great American story. [21:33] I know President Trump will be here shortly. [21:38] President Trump doesn't have to do anything that he does. [21:43] Just like Charlie and Rush, President Trump takes the arrows that he does and continues to stand strong [21:54] because he loves this country deeply and he loves all of you. [21:59] He doesn't have to work tirelessly as he does. [22:12] He could have led a very content private life. [22:19] But President Trump fights daily for all of us, for the younger generations, because he wants the United States [22:29] to remain the most miraculous country on earth, where there is opportunity for all of us. [22:38] He runs our country with a business mind and a father's heart. [22:46] Exactly what is needed. [22:48] One quick story about President Trump. [22:57] I know us Limbaugh's get behind a microphone and we think we have three hours, but I promise you this will be quick. [23:04] Soon after Rush announced his cancer diagnosis to millions on the radio, [23:11] we headed off to Boston for what we thought was a scheduled surgery and treatment. [23:18] When we landed in Boston, the phone rang. [23:22] And sure enough, it was President Trump. [23:24] He asked what we were doing and Rush said, oh, well, just preparing for surgery this afternoon. [23:33] President Trump, without hesitation, said, how about coming to the Capitol tonight? [23:40] Sitting in an old T-shirt in Boston, Rush looked at me and said, tonight? [23:49] Mind you, the T-shirt was about all that he had packed. [23:53] Oh, no, no, no, no, no, we couldn't possibly make it to Washington tonight. [24:00] Well, you all know how persuasive President Trump can be. [24:06] Needless to say, the surgery was delayed and we were in the Capitol hours later for Rush to be presented with a Presidential Medal of Freedom. [24:18] It was a night we will never forget. [24:29] Every few days, President Trump would take time out of his very busy day to call Rush, just to check in. [24:42] No agenda, just simply, how are you holding up? [24:46] President Trump is a great man who cares for our country so deeply and Americans in that very same way. [24:59] God bless Erica and her children. [25:06] God bless President Trump and God bless all of you. [25:11] Thank you. [25:12] We're back in the room, and if you're in the room, if you can be seated, we are about to resume. [40:29] Of humanity, also seeing the best of it. [53:23] Every day when you wake up, you have a choice to spend your days focused on what's broken, [53:33] and recognize our freedoms, and fight to protect them. [53:39] As Americans, we are all privileged to live in the greatest country in the world. [53:58] Is it perfect? [54:00] No, it's not. [54:02] Do we have problems to solve? [54:04] Of course. [54:05] Of course we do. [54:07] But our country is the best that we have. [54:11] And I do not want to lose it. [54:16] If you look around the world right now, it has surrendered itself to third world criminals. [54:24] And under the Biden administration, we were on track for that for ourselves. [54:28] But President Trump came in and course corrected. [54:35] In countries like Nigeria, radical Islamists are murdering Christians for their faith. [54:41] In Canada, they'll tell you you're better off getting medically assisted suicide than believing [54:48] in the sanctity of life. [54:51] In America, we understand that a free life is worth living. [54:56] There is nowhere else on earth, nowhere else on earth like the United States of America. [55:03] There is not. [55:04] And with this powerful combination of freedom, the ability to live your life with your faith, [55:10] and the chance to build a life nowhere else like it. [55:14] I would want to be, and I'm sure you guys feel the same exact way, but that didn't just [55:24] happen by accident. [55:25] It happened because generations have fought and sacrificed everything for it. [55:31] And because all of us, as a united front, said enough is enough and showed up to vote for [55:38] President Trump in 2024. [55:41] Amazing. [55:42] We said enough was enough. [55:47] And I'll never forget after that election. [55:49] I know none of you will either. [55:52] Charlie's sitting there. [55:53] He was going through the numbers. [55:56] He was going through the maps. [55:57] He was looking at all the data points. [56:01] And he said to us, he goes, this is it. [56:04] He said the red wall. [56:05] He said if you can secure Arizona, Nevada, and New Hampshire, and you're investing into [56:11] these states and not just into these races, he said their maps will collapse and their [56:17] strategies will fail. [56:19] And it inspired us to no end. [56:21] Totally inspired us. [56:27] But we don't get to just sit back and admire that win from 2024. [56:31] We have to fight to protect it. [56:34] Every day. [56:35] That's right. [56:36] Every day. [56:37] And Arizona is home for me. [56:38] I was raised here. [56:39] I'm still in love here. [56:42] I got married here. [56:44] We're raising our children here. [56:48] And we're not going to sit back and just watch this state or this country be completely [56:54] torn apart. [56:56] Completely torn apart. [56:57] We're not going to watch that. [56:58] Because they want this state. [57:01] They want this state. [57:02] And Turning Point Action will fight to defend it. [57:05] And we, I refuse, refuse to let California become Arizona. [57:17] Not happening. [57:18] Not happening. [57:20] We don't want Arizona to elect, to elect people like Eric Swalwell. [57:24] No, we don't. [57:26] No, we want. [57:27] But I will say, unfortunately, we do have his best friend, Ruben Gallego here. [57:31] So we have some work to do. [57:32] We have some work to do. [57:36] But seriously, though, I do not want a country to look like the protesters outside who are [57:44] celebrating the murder of my husband. [57:47] I do not want a country like that. [57:50] So let's not forget how quickly things can go in the wrong direction. [57:55] We just lived through four years of corruption dressed up as compassion. [58:03] Four years of corruption. [58:04] Four years of that. [58:05] You remember when we had Christian pro-life activists being persecuted for their beliefs? [58:14] Remember when concerned parents were getting targeted by federal law enforcement just for [58:21] showing up at their school board meetings? [58:23] Remember Lake and Riley? [58:27] Really? [58:28] I do. [58:31] Remember? [58:32] Wide open borders. [58:34] Half a million people poured into this state alone thanks to an administration that didn't [58:39] care about stopping them. [58:41] And now, 452 days into the Trump administration, look at what has already been done. [58:47] Look at it. [58:49] Accomplishments. [58:51] And yes, there is more to be done. [58:56] But my husband and all of you fought for this. [58:59] And we achieved it. [59:08] And now we have to show up again with 80 to 90 percent voter turnout in the midterms and [59:15] fortify the red wall for the next decade. [59:18] That's what we need to do. [59:19] But at the same time, you have people out there who are actively trying to tear this country [59:35] apart. [59:38] They love to start fights. [59:39] Dividing us all against each other, spreading negativity, all to get clicks and influence [59:49] the algorithm to maximize profits. [59:54] Meanwhile, building is hard. [59:58] Getting out the vote, talking to real people, spiritual revival, that's actual work. [1:00:05] That is actual work. [1:00:10] And my husband, Charlie, gave his life for that work. [1:00:15] And what gets built lasts for generations long after the noise has run out of one-liners. [1:00:20] No one understands this better than President Trump. [1:00:30] No one. [1:00:31] No matter what they throw at him, he perseveres in the face of adversity because the mission [1:00:38] is too important. [1:00:46] Because this country is worth fighting for. [1:00:49] And he is not alone in this fight. [1:00:52] And we are blessed to be Americans. [1:00:54] And we are going to fight like it. [1:00:56] And ladies and gentlemen, there is no one else I'd rather have on our side than President [1:01:01] Donald J. Trump. [1:01:03] God bless you guys. [1:01:04] But I want to thank all the young people. [1:06:06] I've never seen so many young people say a special hook to Phoenix. [1:06:14] We had a big win in Phoenix and a big win in Arizona and a big win. [1:06:18] Oh, I want to be back in the great state of Arizona with the heart-working, God-fearing [1:06:26] patriots of Turning Point Action and Turning Point USA. [1:06:31] Months ago, our country lost a fearless warrior, my friend, Freedom. [1:06:41] And he was just an amazing, amazing person. [1:06:51] He was murdered by a cruel and vicious assassin. [1:06:54] He believed that by silencing his voice, he could kill an entire giant movement. [1:07:00] But standing here today, it's clear to see that Charlie's voice is not silenced, it's [1:07:06] roaring and roaring back louder, frankly, than ever before. [1:07:10] His message is unstoppable. [1:07:14] His mission is totally unstoppable. [1:07:18] And his movement is forgetting. [1:07:20] It's not going to happen any other way but success. [1:07:23] It's amazing what he's done. [1:07:25] He was such a great friend of mine. [1:07:27] We talked all the time. [1:07:28] We speak all the time. [1:07:30] Talking about politics. [1:07:31] We talked about God. [1:07:32] We talked about everything you can talk about. [1:07:34] He was a special person. [1:07:36] I want to just thank Erica. [1:07:37] She was put into a rough situation. [1:07:39] Don't get yourself. [1:07:41] That was her. [1:07:41] That's a rough situation. [1:07:42] Those people think they think it's easy. [1:07:45] I told her, not so easy, Erica. [1:07:48] But she loved that man more than anything else. [1:07:51] And she's done a really terrific job. [1:07:53] I want to thank her on behalf of all of you. [1:07:54] Because together, we're making America great again. [1:08:02] And this November, we're going to win the midterms. [1:08:04] We're going to win like never before. [1:08:09] But for some reason, even if you have a great presidency, if you haven't, I don't think there's been one like this. [1:08:15] We have some good news I'll tell you about. [1:08:18] Would anybody like to hear about Iran? [1:08:20] This was scheduled a long time ago. [1:08:26] I said, let's not do any media for a little while. [1:08:29] Here I am. [1:08:30] This is sort of interesting. [1:08:32] They're all waiting. [1:08:32] Look at all the fake news back there. [1:08:34] I filled this place up four times. [1:08:41] Would anybody like to give up your seat? [1:08:43] Allow somebody to, but it's really, it's really been an incredible period of time. [1:08:49] And I'll tell you about it. [1:08:51] But in 2024, Turning Points Grassroots Army helped us win Arizona in an absolute landslide. [1:08:58] We won all seven swing states. [1:09:03] We won the Electoral College 312 to 226. [1:09:09] We won the popular vote by millions of votes. [1:09:11] And we won, and that's the first time in decades that a Republican, I don't know what that's all about, won the popular vote. [1:09:19] But we won by a lot. [1:09:20] And we won 86% of all counties. [1:09:23] Now think of that. [1:09:24] Counties. [1:09:25] To me, that's the biggest of all. [1:09:27] Most important of all. [1:09:28] 86% of all counties in America, 2,700 to 525. [1:09:35] That's called a landslide. [1:09:37] And I want to thank everybody at Turning Point Action who's working tirelessly to help us get out the vote this November 3rd. [1:09:44] Especially, I want to thank all of the executives and Erica Kirk in particular. [1:09:51] Thank you. [1:09:55] This will be a great and brilliant day for the world. [1:10:01] Because Iran has just announced that the Strait of Hormuz is fully open and ready for business and full passage. [1:10:16] The naval blockade with the greatest navy in the world, from the greatest military the world has ever seen. [1:10:23] We built it during my first term. [1:10:28] They said I was crazy. [1:10:29] We'll remain in full force and effect as it pertains to Iran until such time as our transaction with Iran is 100% complete and fully signed. [1:10:47] And this process, we're getting along well. [1:10:49] But who knows? [1:10:50] Who knows with anyone? [1:10:52] But who knows with Iran? [1:10:53] This process should go very quickly. [1:10:57] That most of the points are already negotiated and agreed to. [1:11:02] You'll be very happy. [1:11:02] The USA will get all nuclear dust. [1:11:06] You know what the nuclear dust is? [1:11:08] That was that white powdery substance created by our B-2 bombers. [1:11:13] Those great B-2 bombers. [1:11:15] Late one evening, seven months ago. [1:11:19] No money will exchange hands in any way, shape or form. [1:11:22] We'll be, and you know how we can get the dust, right? [1:11:28] Iran. [1:11:28] We're going to take it anyway. [1:11:30] But taking it, taking it that way is slightly more dangerous. [1:11:35] Iran, with the help of the USA, has removed or is removing all of the sea mines. [1:11:43] And most importantly, it never agreed. [1:11:46] And you'll understand, they will never have a nuclear weapon. [1:11:51] They will never have a weapon. [1:11:52] And somebody said, how are we going to get the nuclear dust? [1:12:03] We're going to get it by going in with Iran. [1:12:05] Lots of excavators because the B-2s, remember when fake news CNN said, [1:12:11] well, maybe obliteration is too strong a word. [1:12:15] Obliteration. [1:12:16] That's so deep. [1:12:17] We need the biggest excavator you can imagine. [1:12:20] But we're going to go in together with Iran. [1:12:22] We're going to get it. [1:12:22] We're going to take it back home to the USA. [1:12:25] That the almost straight situation is almost over. [1:12:32] I received a call from NATO asking if we would like some help. [1:12:40] Thank you very much, NATO. [1:12:43] And I told them I would have liked your help two months ago, [1:12:46] but now I really don't want your help anymore. [1:12:49] Because they were absolutely useless when we needed. [1:12:55] But actually, we never needed them. [1:13:00] They needed us. [1:13:01] They need us. [1:13:01] They need us so badly. [1:13:04] You know, it's a little bit like if you're a politician. [1:13:06] It's not going to believe I'm a politician. [1:13:08] But after I won, people came up to me, [1:13:11] said, I'd like to make a major contribution to your campaign. [1:13:15] And I said, listen, just so you understand, [1:13:17] campaign contributions after I won don't count. [1:13:24] And NATO, after we won, that doesn't count. [1:13:27] It was the same. [1:13:28] But you have to remember that. [1:13:34] Because we spend hundreds of billions of dollars a year. [1:13:40] We spend money. [1:13:42] We spend, I would say, in many cases, [1:13:46] close to a trillion dollars over a couple of years. [1:13:50] The trillion must help them. [1:13:52] And we're always helping them. [1:13:54] And this was just a military excursion. [1:13:58] This is the big, this isn't the big time. [1:14:01] The military is so great. [1:14:04] I'm so proud. [1:14:04] It's one of the really brilliant Space Force. [1:14:06] You know, you see all of that. [1:14:09] When you see those rockets go on, [1:14:12] look up there, the Space Force. [1:14:13] We all created Space Force. [1:14:15] Didn't exist. [1:14:16] We were losing to China and to Russia in space. [1:14:19] And now we're so far ahead of them both, [1:14:21] you wouldn't believe it. [1:14:23] But yesterday, on top of it all, [1:14:26] we achieved what everyone said was impossible, [1:14:28] an unprecedented ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. [1:14:32] And that hasn't taken place in 78 years. [1:14:37] 78. [1:14:37] Our deal with Iran is not in any way tied to Lebanon, [1:14:43] but we will make Lebanon great again. [1:14:46] I mean, it's about time we get started. [1:14:49] We've sort of, the world has forgotten them, [1:14:51] and the good people who have lived like hell [1:14:54] for a long period of time. [1:14:56] And hopefully the situation with Hezbollah [1:14:58] will get straightened out quickly. [1:15:00] But I want to thank the country of Pakistan [1:15:05] and its great prime minister [1:15:07] and its great, great field marshal. [1:15:09] He's our great field marshal. [1:15:11] Two fantastic people for helping. [1:15:14] They really are terrific people. [1:15:17] And I also want to thank Saudi Arabia, [1:15:19] Qatar, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait. [1:15:22] They've been amazing. [1:15:23] They've all helped tremendously. [1:15:25] Tremendously. [1:15:26] It took courage for them. [1:15:32] Not easy. [1:15:33] Not easy. [1:15:33] They were living with what they call [1:15:35] the bully of the Middle East. [1:15:36] They had the bully of Iran was the bully of the Middle East. [1:15:39] They're not the bully anymore. [1:15:41] With the help of everyone here today, [1:15:44] this has been by far the most successful first year [1:15:47] of any administration in the history of our country. [1:15:50] Acknowledged by everybody. [1:15:55] To begin with, I ended eight wars. [1:15:58] And it may be a little early to say this, [1:16:00] but if we had Iran and Lebanon, [1:16:02] that will be ten wars ended [1:16:04] and many, many millions of lives saved. [1:16:08] Think of how many lives were saved. [1:16:10] Starting on day one, [1:16:16] we ended the illegal invasion of America. [1:16:19] That's an invasion by criminals. [1:16:23] Many, many criminals, murderers, drug dealers, prisoners. [1:16:27] They emptied out their prisons into our country. [1:16:30] And we took the most dangerous, unsafe, violent, [1:16:34] and open border and created the most secure border [1:16:37] in U.S. history. [1:16:39] One of the most secure borders anywhere in the world [1:16:41] with zero illegal aliens coming into our country [1:16:44] in the past 11 months. [1:16:46] Zero! [1:16:47] And in 2025, we achieved the largest drop [1:16:53] in violent crime ever recorded. [1:16:55] That's despite all of these people [1:16:56] that came into our country, [1:16:58] many of them, and now got on them. [1:17:00] Lisa, tell you, [1:17:01] the murder rate... [1:17:03] Isn't it a terrible thing to be talking about murder? [1:17:05] But you gotta say, [1:17:07] at least it was good news. [1:17:08] I guess it was good news. [1:17:09] The murder rate reached the lowest level [1:17:12] in over 125 years. [1:17:15] 1900. [1:17:17] The year 1900, [1:17:19] before my father was born, [1:17:20] my father was great, [1:17:22] before he was born, [1:17:23] the flow of deadly fentanyl [1:17:25] pouring across our border [1:17:27] is down by an astounding 59%. [1:17:30] And as you probably noticed, [1:17:35] if you watched the news, [1:17:38] drugs coming in by ocean or sea [1:17:41] are down by 97%. [1:17:43] And I just... [1:17:44] Trying to find out who the 3% is [1:17:54] because I consider them to be perhaps [1:17:56] the bravest people anywhere in the world. [1:18:01] Boom. [1:18:02] They don't watch television or something. [1:18:09] We passed the largest tax cuts [1:18:11] in American history, [1:18:12] the largest spending cuts [1:18:14] in American history, [1:18:15] the largest regulation cuts [1:18:17] in American history, [1:18:18] and the largest investment [1:18:20] in border security [1:18:21] in the history of our country. [1:18:25] And starting my first day in office, [1:18:26] we banned the transgender [1:18:29] mutilization of our children. [1:18:31] And we made it the official policy [1:18:39] of the United States of America [1:18:41] that there are only two genders, [1:18:45] male, female. [1:18:47] That was easy. [1:18:55] Could you imagine if I was up here [1:18:56] 20 years ago, [1:18:57] or 15 years ago, [1:18:59] probably 12 years ago, [1:19:01] and I said, [1:19:01] there are only two genders, [1:19:03] male, female. [1:19:03] People would say, [1:19:05] what else is that meant for? [1:19:06] Is that crazy? [1:19:07] It's got to be the worst speech [1:19:09] I've ever heard. [1:19:10] Why is he saying that? [1:19:11] Well, why is he saying that [1:19:14] we got men [1:19:15] out of women's sports? [1:19:17] Can you imagine saying that [1:19:19] 15 years ago? [1:19:20] 15 years ago, [1:19:22] you said, [1:19:23] and we got men [1:19:24] out of women's sports. [1:19:26] The audience is saying, [1:19:27] what's wrong with that guy? [1:19:29] It's the craziest thing [1:19:30] I've ever heard. [1:19:31] And we got critical race theory [1:19:34] out of our schools. [1:19:36] Apolish DEI across the entire [1:19:43] federal government. [1:19:50] So-called affirmative action [1:19:52] in federal contracting [1:19:53] and university admissions. [1:19:56] If you get great marks [1:19:57] and great scores, [1:19:59] and your boards are good, [1:20:00] everything is good, [1:20:01] you're getting in. [1:20:03] People can't go before. [1:20:04] We have a country now [1:20:08] that again is based on merit. [1:20:10] That's the way we became great. [1:20:16] But we have to win the midterms [1:20:18] and all of these things, [1:20:20] it'll stay with us forever. [1:20:23] But if we don't win the midterms, [1:20:25] I said it during [1:20:26] my State of the Union speech [1:20:27] when I interviewed [1:20:28] and talked to some people backstage, [1:20:31] I said, [1:20:32] you know, [1:20:32] I'd like to have some of these people [1:20:33] called out for their greatness. [1:20:38] And we gave out, [1:20:39] as you know that night, [1:20:40] the Congressional Medal of Honor [1:20:42] to a young man [1:20:43] who was flying a helicopter [1:20:45] with practically his legs shut off. [1:20:47] And he landed in Venezuela [1:20:49] perfectly with [1:20:50] a lot of men on board, [1:20:52] like 48. [1:20:53] And if that goes down, [1:20:55] the Venezuela, [1:20:57] incredible attack. [1:20:58] Nobody killed. [1:21:00] Hundreds of millions [1:21:02] of barrels of oil [1:21:03] taken out. [1:21:04] The relationship with Venezuela [1:21:05] is great. [1:21:06] We're working [1:21:06] it's like a great partnership. [1:21:08] But if that doesn't happen, [1:21:10] we looked at the Democrats. [1:21:12] Not one was slapping. [1:21:15] Medal of Honor. [1:21:16] Then we interviewed a mother, [1:21:17] a beautiful mother, [1:21:18] whose daughter was slashed [1:21:20] from behind by a mania. [1:21:22] She could hardly stand. [1:21:24] It was eight months ago. [1:21:27] She could hardly stand. [1:21:28] Crying uncontrollably. [1:21:31] Not one Democrat [1:21:32] was clapping. [1:21:34] Then we introduced [1:21:35] a war hero from 100 years. [1:21:36] He was 101 years old. [1:21:38] Gave him the Congressional Medal of Honor [1:21:40] for his great heroics. [1:21:42] Wasn't recognized [1:21:43] until I came along. [1:21:45] Not one Democrat [1:21:46] clapped. [1:21:47] Not one Democrat. [1:21:48] And now they don't want [1:21:52] to pay our border security. [1:21:54] And they don't want [1:21:55] to pay our great patriots of ICE. [1:21:57] You know, [1:21:57] ICE is a tough job. [1:21:59] You've got those murderers [1:22:00] that they allowed [1:22:01] into our country. [1:22:02] Think of it. [1:22:04] Thousands of murderers [1:22:05] came into our country. [1:22:07] 11,888. [1:22:10] 50% of them [1:22:11] killed more than one person. [1:22:15] These are violent criminals. [1:22:18] And ICE is tough. [1:22:20] And I don't want that job. [1:22:22] And most of you don't either. [1:22:23] I have a couple of friends [1:22:24] in the front row. [1:22:25] And they're tough people. [1:22:26] But they're not that tough. [1:22:27] They don't want that job. [1:22:28] And if we don't have ICE [1:22:29] and if we don't have [1:22:30] our great border patrol [1:22:31] and if we don't have [1:22:32] our great policemen [1:22:33] and all of these people [1:22:34] that are incredible. [1:22:35] They keep our country great. [1:22:36] They keep our country safe. [1:22:37] And the Democrats, [1:22:39] the Democrats want [1:22:41] to defund them. [1:22:43] They want to defund ICE. [1:22:45] They want ICE terminated. [1:22:48] And you know, [1:22:49] whether you're liberal, [1:22:50] conservative, [1:22:50] doesn't matter. [1:22:52] Democrat, Republican, [1:22:53] independent. [1:22:54] It's crazy. [1:22:56] And I looked at them [1:22:58] as we went through [1:23:00] about seven moments [1:23:01] when you had to clap. [1:23:03] And they didn't. [1:23:03] I said, [1:23:04] these people are crazy. [1:23:09] And you know, [1:23:10] I don't know if you noticed, [1:23:13] the word was passed to them [1:23:14] from people that were [1:23:16] watching, I guess, [1:23:17] on television, [1:23:18] maybe standing backstage. [1:23:20] They said, [1:23:20] this guy is killing you. [1:23:22] Start clapping. [1:23:24] And the last half hour, [1:23:25] they were clapping [1:23:26] for everything I said. [1:23:28] They were clapping [1:23:29] for everything. [1:23:30] Things they shouldn't [1:23:31] have been clapping for [1:23:32] because they heard [1:23:33] they were getting killed. [1:23:34] Just remember that night. [1:23:35] That night was [1:23:36] a very telling night. [1:23:38] And we don't want [1:23:40] to go back to that. [1:23:40] We don't want to open borders [1:23:42] where millions of people [1:23:43] pour into our country. [1:23:44] We want to have [1:23:45] safe borders. [1:23:47] We want people [1:23:47] coming into our country, [1:23:49] but they want to come in [1:23:50] and we have to have them [1:23:51] come in legally first. [1:23:57] The border's starting [1:23:58] the process of shutting down [1:23:59] the Federal Department [1:24:01] of Education [1:24:02] and sending education [1:24:04] back to the States. [1:24:06] Thank you, [1:24:07] Linda McMahon. [1:24:08] Linda McMahon. [1:24:11] You know, [1:24:11] education. [1:24:14] Go back to the States [1:24:15] where it should be. [1:24:16] You don't want to have [1:24:16] a bureaucrat from Washington [1:24:17] who couldn't care less [1:24:19] about your community [1:24:20] telling you how to educate [1:24:21] your child. [1:24:23] You have your local boards [1:24:24] and your parent groups. [1:24:27] One thing, [1:24:27] I know you love your children. [1:24:28] I'm not sure that they do. [1:24:30] But we've largely [1:24:31] removed education. [1:24:33] When we just did, [1:24:34] just move them back. [1:24:36] You know, [1:24:36] we're supposed to go [1:24:37] through a long process. [1:24:38] Thank you, by the way, [1:24:39] to Linda McMahon. [1:24:40] She's been fantastic. [1:24:46] And we removed [1:24:47] over 300,000 bureaucrats [1:24:49] from federal payrolls. [1:24:51] They had sometimes [1:24:52] 10, 11, 12 people [1:24:54] to do one job [1:24:55] and they just sit there. [1:24:57] And you know what? [1:24:57] I have a lot of respect [1:24:58] for whatever. [1:25:00] But you can't run [1:25:02] a country like that. [1:25:03] You can't, [1:25:04] as the expression goes, [1:25:05] has anyone ever heard of it? [1:25:06] Make America great again. [1:25:08] You can't make America [1:25:09] great again when you do that. [1:25:11] So we've done that [1:25:12] and, you know, [1:25:14] many of those people [1:25:14] are very happy [1:25:15] because right now [1:25:16] more people are working [1:25:17] in the United States [1:25:18] than at any time [1:25:19] in the history [1:25:20] of our country. [1:25:21] And many of those people [1:25:22] that had these boring, [1:25:25] lousy jobs [1:25:26] where they weren't even jobs. [1:25:28] Federal government, [1:25:29] they went out [1:25:30] and they got jobs [1:25:30] in the private sector [1:25:31] because we have [1:25:32] the most people working [1:25:33] than we've ever had before. [1:25:34] And they're making more money [1:25:36] and enjoying their job. [1:25:37] It's sort of an amazing phenomenon. [1:25:40] After decades [1:25:41] of other countries [1:25:42] stealing our jobs [1:25:43] and plundering our wealth, [1:25:45] thanks to our strong [1:25:46] policy on tariffs, [1:25:48] we cut our gaping trade deficit. [1:25:50] Now, if you do 1%, [1:25:52] you're considered [1:25:54] like a genius. [1:25:55] If you do 2% or 3%, [1:25:57] it's unheard of. [1:25:59] We cut it by 59% [1:26:02] this year, [1:26:03] our trade gap. [1:26:04] It's the largest drop [1:26:06] of a trade gap. [1:26:09] Think of it. [1:26:10] It's the largest drop [1:26:11] in history, [1:26:12] the history of our country. [1:26:13] 59%! [1:26:16] Can you believe it? [1:26:18] So if you're a genius [1:26:19] with 1% [1:26:20] and really a super genius [1:26:22] at 3%, [1:26:23] what are you with 59%? [1:26:24] As part of our tax cuts, [1:26:30] we delivered, [1:26:31] a lot of you benefited [1:26:32] by this, [1:26:32] no tax on tips, [1:26:34] no tax on overtime, [1:26:36] no tax on social security [1:26:38] for our great seniors. [1:26:42] You know, [1:26:42] the great big beautiful bill [1:26:44] is really [1:26:45] the great big beautiful [1:26:47] tax cut bill, [1:26:47] but it was also, [1:26:49] we gave you the right [1:26:50] to deduct your interest payments [1:26:52] on a car loan, [1:26:53] but only if it's made [1:26:54] in the USA. [1:26:54] That's been incredible. [1:26:56] You never had that right before. [1:26:58] And this week, [1:26:59] millions of Americans [1:27:00] received the largest [1:27:01] tax refunds of their lives. [1:27:03] The average [1:27:03] is more than $4,000 [1:27:05] per file. [1:27:06] Think of that. [1:27:07] So nobody knew [1:27:08] this was going to happen, [1:27:10] but now they're getting [1:27:11] their refunds back [1:27:12] and they're much larger [1:27:13] than I said. [1:27:15] In other words, [1:27:15] I under-exaggerated, [1:27:17] which is good. [1:27:19] And in four long years, [1:27:22] sleepy Joe Biden, [1:27:24] have you heard of him? [1:27:25] What a president, [1:27:28] what a disaster. [1:27:29] But the whole party, [1:27:30] it was the party, [1:27:31] he didn't run the country, [1:27:32] the people surrounding [1:27:33] the Resolute Desk [1:27:34] in the Oval Office, [1:27:35] they ran the party. [1:27:36] Radical left lunatics. [1:27:39] But in four long years, [1:27:40] sleepy Joe Biden [1:27:41] got less than [1:27:42] $1 trillion [1:27:43] invested in our country, [1:27:45] much less. [1:27:46] And in 12 months, [1:27:48] so think of it, [1:27:48] four years, [1:27:49] ours is 12 months [1:27:51] and it's actually 11 [1:27:52] because we haven't [1:27:52] gotten the last month. [1:27:54] So in 11 months [1:27:55] versus, [1:27:56] think of that, [1:27:57] versus four years, [1:27:59] they did less than [1:28:00] a trillion. [1:28:00] in 11 months, [1:28:02] we did $18 trillion [1:28:03] of new investments [1:28:05] coming up to Washington. [1:28:08] And that's a record [1:28:09] for any country, [1:28:11] anywhere in the world, [1:28:11] by a lot. [1:28:15] And the king of Saudi Arabia [1:28:16] told me, [1:28:17] when I was in Saudi Arabia, [1:28:19] they invested $2 trillion [1:28:20] in our country, [1:28:21] but he looked at it [1:28:23] as a dead country. [1:28:24] We thought it was dead. [1:28:25] And now you have [1:28:26] the hottest country [1:28:28] anywhere in the world. [1:28:29] And he's right, [1:28:30] the hottest country [1:28:31] anywhere in the world. [1:28:35] The years before [1:28:36] I took office, [1:28:37] people thought [1:28:38] that America [1:28:39] was in decline, [1:28:40] that our best days [1:28:41] were in the past [1:28:42] and that the sun [1:28:42] was setting [1:28:43] on American power. [1:28:46] But no one [1:28:47] thinks that anymore [1:28:48] because we are [1:28:49] indeed the strongest, [1:28:51] the hottest, [1:28:53] the best country [1:28:54] anywhere in the world. [1:28:55] And you know what? [1:28:56] Nobody laughs at us [1:28:57] anywhere. [1:28:58] They were laughing. [1:28:58] They thought we were [1:28:59] a laughing mess. [1:29:03] Under this administration, [1:29:06] America is on the march [1:29:08] and America is on the rise [1:29:10] like we haven't seen [1:29:11] maybe ever before. [1:29:13] We are respected again [1:29:14] as a country [1:29:14] and we're respected [1:29:16] at levels that nobody [1:29:17] thought possible. [1:29:18] Unlike past leaders, [1:29:19] this administration [1:29:20] does not apologize [1:29:22] for American power. [1:29:23] We are not ashamed [1:29:24] of American might. [1:29:26] And we do not hesitate [1:29:28] to defend the American people, [1:29:30] which is what we've been doing [1:29:31] for the last two months [1:29:32] because Iran cannot have [1:29:35] a nuclear weapon. [1:29:36] It's very simple. [1:29:37] For years, [1:29:44] we were ruled by fools [1:29:46] who let every third-grade country [1:29:49] push us around [1:29:50] and bleed us dry on trade [1:29:52] and everything else [1:29:53] they could get away with. [1:29:54] They took advantage of us [1:29:56] on trade, [1:29:57] not any more than that. [1:29:59] But those days are over [1:30:00] and they're gone forever. [1:30:03] America was not founded [1:30:04] by weak and timid men [1:30:06] who cowered in the face of evil [1:30:08] or sat by as danger loomed [1:30:10] and let our country go to hell. [1:30:13] We are descended [1:30:14] from the likes [1:30:15] of George Washington, [1:30:16] Andrew Jackson, [1:30:18] Generals Ulysses S. Grant, [1:30:20] Douglas MacArthur, [1:30:22] General George Patton. [1:30:24] Our ancestors knew exactly [1:30:26] what to do [1:30:27] with America's enemies. [1:30:29] Beat them [1:30:29] and beat them good. [1:30:31] That's what they had to do. [1:30:32] That's what they had to do. [1:30:35] And if NATO teaches us [1:30:36] any one thing, [1:30:38] and I hope you all watched [1:30:39] because they weren't there for us, [1:30:41] if it teaches us [1:30:44] any one thing, [1:30:45] we have to rely on ourselves. [1:30:48] We can't rely on outside countries [1:30:50] and outside sources. [1:30:55] So do not listen to [1:30:56] the craven and cowardly voices [1:30:58] who tell you [1:30:59] America needs to think small [1:31:00] or to shrink from our duties [1:31:03] or potential. [1:31:05] Most people, [1:31:06] they wanted to, [1:31:07] you know, [1:31:07] this recent situation, [1:31:10] they wanted to do it, [1:31:12] but they said, [1:31:12] oh, let's not get involved. [1:31:14] Sometimes you have to get involved. [1:31:16] You have no choice [1:31:17] but to get involved. [1:31:18] If you're going to remain great, [1:31:20] sometimes you have to get involved. [1:31:22] Remember, [1:31:23] I'm the peacemaker. [1:31:23] I'm the one that settled [1:31:25] eight wars. [1:31:26] I settled a war [1:31:27] that would have killed [1:31:28] 30 to 50 million people. [1:31:31] India, Pakistan. [1:31:33] You have to sometimes [1:31:35] get involved. [1:31:36] We are the inheritors [1:31:37] of the most incredible civilization [1:31:39] that has ever existed, [1:31:42] and our task [1:31:43] is to defend it. [1:31:45] We have to defend it. [1:31:46] Past leaders [1:31:47] used our wealth and power [1:31:48] to make other countries rich [1:31:50] and treated our military [1:31:52] like a charity for the world [1:31:54] while getting barely a word [1:31:55] of thanks in return. [1:31:57] Nobody thanks us. [1:31:59] They don't say, [1:31:59] oh, thank you so much. [1:32:01] They don't thank us. [1:32:02] They think we're stupid. [1:32:03] That's really what it is. [1:32:05] They don't thank us. [1:32:06] Now we're using American strength [1:32:08] to advance American interests [1:32:10] for American citizens [1:32:12] and to ensure [1:32:13] that we remain [1:32:13] the most dominant country [1:32:15] on the face of the earth, [1:32:16] which we're doing [1:32:17] at levels [1:32:18] that nobody can believe, actually. [1:32:20] Every branch [1:32:21] of our armed forces [1:32:22] is setting [1:32:23] new recruitment records, [1:32:26] records that nobody [1:32:26] thought would be possible [1:32:28] because everyone [1:32:28] wants to be a part [1:32:29] of the greatest military [1:32:31] the world has ever seen. [1:32:35] In January, [1:32:36] our warriors flew straight [1:32:37] into the heart [1:32:38] of the Venezuelan capital, [1:32:41] captured the outlaw dictator [1:32:43] Nicolas Maduro [1:32:44] and brought him [1:32:46] to face American justice, [1:32:49] which is what he's doing [1:32:51] right now. [1:32:55] And very soon, [1:32:56] this great strength [1:32:57] will also bring [1:32:58] about a day, [1:33:00] 70 years in waiting. [1:33:03] It's called [1:33:04] A New Dawn for Cuba. [1:33:06] We're going to help them [1:33:06] out with Kimball. [1:33:08] We have a lot of great [1:33:09] Cuban Americans, [1:33:11] not too many people [1:33:13] in this audience, [1:33:14] I don't think, [1:33:14] but you go to Miami, [1:33:16] we have people, [1:33:17] Cuban Americans, [1:33:18] people that were [1:33:19] brutally treated [1:33:21] and whose families [1:33:21] were killed, [1:33:23] brutalized, [1:33:24] and now, [1:33:26] watch what happens. [1:33:28] Under this governing [1:33:29] philosophy, [1:33:30] instead of locking down [1:33:31] our energy resources [1:33:32] and putting ourselves [1:33:33] at the mercy [1:33:35] of those that hate us, [1:33:36] and they hate us, [1:33:37] and they don't respect us, [1:33:38] but they do now, [1:33:40] we are unleashing [1:33:41] our own supplies [1:33:42] with those [1:33:42] really beautiful words, [1:33:44] perhaps you've heard [1:33:45] them before, [1:33:46] drill, baby, [1:33:48] drill, right? [1:33:49] And because of that, [1:33:55] we now produce [1:33:56] more oil [1:33:57] than Russia [1:33:59] and Saudi Arabia [1:34:00] combined, [1:34:01] and very soon, [1:34:02] that number [1:34:03] will more than double. [1:34:05] That's pretty good. [1:34:06] In addition, [1:34:10] our new partner, [1:34:11] Venezuela, [1:34:12] Venezuela's been great, [1:34:14] really doing a good job [1:34:15] over there, [1:34:15] adding very substantially [1:34:18] to that number. [1:34:20] Likewise, [1:34:21] instead of using [1:34:22] our wealth [1:34:22] to throw open [1:34:24] our borders [1:34:24] and feed house, [1:34:26] clothe, [1:34:26] and police [1:34:27] the entire world, [1:34:28] we're restoring [1:34:29] the principle [1:34:29] that America's [1:34:30] immigration policies [1:34:31] must serve [1:34:32] the best interest [1:34:34] of America [1:34:35] and its great citizens. [1:34:37] It's called [1:34:38] America First. [1:34:40] It's very sick, [1:34:41] and we'll help [1:34:44] other countries, [1:34:45] but we have to view [1:34:46] it as America First, [1:34:47] otherwise we're not [1:34:48] going to have [1:34:48] a country left. [1:34:49] At this moment, [1:34:50] Democrats have [1:34:51] shut down [1:34:52] the Department [1:34:52] of Homeland Security [1:34:53] to shield [1:34:54] the world's most [1:34:55] heinous [1:34:56] and violent criminals [1:34:57] from deportation. [1:34:59] They want to keep [1:35:00] them in our country. [1:35:02] They have a murderer, [1:35:03] killed many people, [1:35:03] they want to keep [1:35:04] them in our country. [1:35:05] They're fighting [1:35:05] very hard to keep [1:35:06] them here. [1:35:06] And there's something, [1:35:08] I'm telling you, [1:35:09] there's something [1:35:09] wrong with these people. [1:35:11] They want to protect [1:35:12] arranged monsters [1:35:13] like the illegal alien [1:35:15] from Haiti [1:35:16] who recently beat [1:35:17] a mother of two [1:35:18] to death [1:35:19] with a hammer [1:35:19] at a Florida gas station [1:35:22] for all to see. [1:35:22] It was all on tape. [1:35:23] You saw just a week ago. [1:35:26] Last month, [1:35:27] a migrant criminal [1:35:28] with 15 prior charges [1:35:30] and four prior deportations [1:35:32] threw an 83-year-old veteran [1:35:34] onto the subway tracks [1:35:36] in New York City [1:35:37] killing him instantly [1:35:39] as he got run over [1:35:40] by a subway train. [1:35:44] Threw him in [1:35:44] solo on tape. [1:35:46] Democrats want [1:35:46] to protect him. [1:35:48] They want to protect [1:35:49] criminal aliens. [1:35:51] Republicans want [1:35:52] to put them in jail [1:35:53] or ideally deport them [1:35:55] as long as [1:35:56] they never come back. [1:36:01] And under my leadership, [1:36:02] we ended asylum fraud. [1:36:04] We ended all [1:36:05] catch and release. [1:36:06] We stopped [1:36:06] third world migration. [1:36:08] We suspended [1:36:09] all refugee resettlement [1:36:11] except for [1:36:12] persecuted [1:36:14] South Africans. [1:36:15] They're being persecuted [1:36:16] in South Africa. [1:36:20] In South Africa, [1:36:21] there's a very horrible [1:36:22] thing going on [1:36:23] in South Africa. [1:36:24] It's a genocide. [1:36:25] It's a horrible thing. [1:36:27] We made it possible [1:36:28] for these people [1:36:28] to come into our country. [1:36:31] They kill people [1:36:31] if they're white, [1:36:32] if you're a white person. [1:36:34] And I'll tell you what, [1:36:35] I did great [1:36:36] with the black vote, [1:36:37] the African-American vote, [1:36:38] and they understand [1:36:39] this better than anybody. [1:36:41] South Africa, [1:36:43] they kill white farmers. [1:36:46] And we said, [1:36:47] you come into our country [1:36:48] and we let you come in. [1:36:50] You get a green card [1:36:51] and you get a passport. [1:36:52] You get, [1:36:53] you can stay in our country. [1:36:56] Terrible. [1:36:57] We can't let it go on [1:36:59] and we don't have [1:36:59] to talk about it. [1:37:01] People don't like [1:37:02] talking about it. [1:37:03] You know, [1:37:03] New York Times wrote [1:37:04] out a story about it [1:37:05] years ago. [1:37:06] That was the only story [1:37:07] they ever wrote. [1:37:09] I'm sure the reporter [1:37:10] got fired immediately. [1:37:12] But we've deported [1:37:13] a record number [1:37:14] of criminal aliens. [1:37:16] A record. [1:37:16] Nobody's ever seen [1:37:17] the numbers like this. [1:37:18] And for the first time [1:37:19] in more than 50 years, [1:37:20] we now have [1:37:20] reverse migration. [1:37:23] It's a beautiful thing, [1:37:23] actually. [1:37:26] And just imagine [1:37:27] where our country [1:37:28] would be today [1:37:29] if instead of spending [1:37:30] trillions of dollars [1:37:31] on illegal migrants [1:37:33] who come into [1:37:34] our country illegally [1:37:36] and spending it [1:37:37] on the Green News scam, [1:37:38] one of the greatest scams [1:37:39] in history, remember? [1:37:41] Climate change, [1:37:43] global warming, [1:37:43] all of this. [1:37:44] They actually had [1:37:45] global warming, [1:37:46] remember? [1:37:47] That that wasn't working [1:37:48] because we were actually [1:37:49] cooling as a planet. [1:37:51] Then they had [1:37:52] another one [1:37:53] and another one [1:37:54] and another one [1:37:55] and they were wrong. [1:37:56] And then they just said, [1:37:57] climate change, [1:37:58] because climate change [1:37:59] takes care of heat, [1:38:01] snow, whatever you have. [1:38:02] But past leaders [1:38:04] had used American wealth [1:38:05] and power to raise [1:38:06] our civilization [1:38:07] to brand new heights. [1:38:10] This is the choice [1:38:11] for every voter. [1:38:13] In the midterms, [1:38:13] Democrats want to drag [1:38:15] America down, [1:38:16] destroy our country, [1:38:17] put it into crime, [1:38:18] poverty, and squalor. [1:38:21] Really the squalor [1:38:22] of a third world nation. [1:38:23] We would have been, [1:38:24] if I didn't win this election, [1:38:26] within a short period of time, [1:38:28] we would have been [1:38:29] a third world nation. [1:38:32] Hard to believe, [1:38:32] isn't it? [1:38:33] Republicans want to build [1:38:36] America up [1:38:37] into a nation [1:38:38] with no rivals [1:38:39] and human history [1:38:41] to make your family [1:38:42] safer and wealthier [1:38:43] than ever before. [1:38:44] We're making your family safe. [1:38:46] We're making you safe. [1:38:52] So if you want a poor [1:38:53] and weak America, [1:38:57] a country that's riddled [1:38:58] with crime, [1:39:00] death, [1:39:02] disease, [1:39:03] and nothing but problems, [1:39:05] you should immediately [1:39:06] vote Democrat. [1:39:07] If you want a rich [1:39:09] and strong [1:39:09] and a country [1:39:11] that you're going to be [1:39:12] proud of America, [1:39:14] you must go out [1:39:15] in the midterms [1:39:16] and vote Republican. [1:39:17] We need that. [1:39:18] And I was going to say [1:39:24] that when a president wins, [1:39:27] Republican or Democrat, [1:39:28] for some reason, [1:39:28] they lose the midterms, [1:39:30] often, [1:39:30] most of the time. [1:39:31] It doesn't make sense. [1:39:33] Even if you have a president [1:39:34] who's doing a good job, [1:39:35] and I think I'm doing [1:39:36] the best job at anybody, [1:39:37] you really can't. [1:39:40] When you add it all up, [1:39:42] when you add it up, [1:39:43] or when you add it all up, [1:39:44] nobody's done what we've done. [1:39:45] But for some reason, [1:39:48] a president, [1:39:49] Republican, [1:39:50] Democrat, [1:39:51] the party does poorly [1:39:53] in the midterms. [1:39:54] It doesn't make sense. [1:39:55] I'm still trying [1:39:55] to figure it out. [1:39:57] We'll go out [1:39:58] and I think probably [1:39:58] hire a couple of psychiatrists. [1:40:01] What the hell [1:40:01] is going on in your mind? [1:40:03] Does that happen? [1:40:04] Because it should be [1:40:05] the opposite. [1:40:05] We're doing well, [1:40:06] we're doing our job, [1:40:08] we're ending wars [1:40:08] all over the place. [1:40:10] By the way, [1:40:10] with the exception [1:40:11] of our little excursion, [1:40:13] and where do you see [1:40:13] prices fall? [1:40:14] Did you see oil [1:40:15] is down today, [1:40:16] and prices are down today? [1:40:18] But we inherited [1:40:21] this in the history [1:40:23] of our country. [1:40:24] We inherited that, [1:40:27] and then we worked on it, [1:40:28] and what a job we've done, [1:40:29] and we took inflation, [1:40:30] we inherited the worst [1:40:32] inflation in history, [1:40:34] and what a job. [1:40:34] But we had to put out [1:40:35] that flame, [1:40:36] we had to put out [1:40:37] that horrible flyer, [1:40:38] really, [1:40:38] that was taking place [1:40:40] in Iran. [1:40:41] We had to do it. [1:40:42] Otherwise, [1:40:43] you want to see a problem? [1:40:45] Give them a nuclear weapon. [1:40:47] They'd use it the first day. [1:40:48] You want to see a problem? [1:40:50] They would use it [1:40:51] the first day. [1:40:51] That could happen. [1:40:53] So we're thrilled [1:40:53] to be joined today [1:40:54] by many incredible [1:40:55] Arizona leaders [1:40:56] who will help [1:40:57] achieve this victory, [1:40:58] including candidates [1:40:59] for Congress. [1:41:01] Great, [1:41:02] a lot of great athletes [1:41:03] running. [1:41:03] I don't know what this is. [1:41:04] Jay Feely, [1:41:05] great kicker, [1:41:06] great athlete. [1:41:06] Where's Jay? [1:41:07] Jay Feely. [1:41:08] That's Jay. [1:41:10] Wherever you are, Jay. [1:41:13] Hi, Jay. [1:41:14] Great athletes. [1:41:16] A sheriff [1:41:17] who I've been friends with [1:41:18] for a long time, [1:41:19] Sheriff Mark Lamb. [1:41:21] Sheriff, [1:41:22] good to see you, Sheriff. [1:41:27] I'm going to get [1:41:33] one of those hats, Sheriff. [1:41:34] Tell me the way. [1:41:35] Tell me the way you got it. [1:41:36] I wouldn't have to worry [1:41:37] about my hair. [1:41:37] I could just put that. [1:41:39] I hear you're doing great [1:41:42] in the polls, Sheriff, too. [1:41:44] Representatives, [1:41:46] Juan Siskamani, [1:41:49] Paul Gosa, [1:41:51] Abe Hamaday, [1:41:54] Ike Crane. [1:41:58] A good friend of mine [1:42:06] who's running for governor [1:42:09] who should win [1:42:10] who's great. [1:42:11] Andy Biggs. [1:42:12] Where's Andy? [1:42:15] You better win, Andy. [1:42:16] You hate to lose him [1:42:19] from Congress. [1:42:19] You know, [1:42:21] I'm sort of torn with it. [1:42:22] I hate to lose him, [1:42:23] but he's going to be [1:42:25] a great governor. [1:42:27] Arizona GOP [1:42:28] chair, [1:42:30] Sergio Moreno. [1:42:31] Thank you, sir. [1:42:37] Great job you're doing. [1:42:38] Thank you. [1:42:38] Thank you for all the help. [1:42:40] Arizona Senate President [1:42:42] Warren Peterson. [1:42:44] Thank you, Warren. [1:42:48] Popular, Warren. [1:42:53] Very popular. [1:42:53] Treasurer, [1:42:55] Kimberly Yee. [1:42:56] Good job. [1:43:01] State Representative, [1:43:03] Alex Colliden. [1:43:04] Look at this guy. [1:43:12] Oh, I can't believe it. [1:43:14] I love this guy. [1:43:15] So popular. [1:43:19] A man, [1:43:20] he's probably in his 50s, [1:43:21] early 50s, [1:43:23] but he's around a long time, [1:43:25] much longer than that. [1:43:27] He's a special person. [1:43:29] There was no order problem [1:43:30] when he was here. [1:43:31] Sheriff Joe Arpaio. [1:43:34] Sheriff Joe. [1:43:40] Where's Sheriff Joe? [1:43:41] For me, [1:43:52] when I was running, [1:43:54] we were sort of a legendary guy. [1:43:56] There were no order problems. [1:43:57] We had no order problems. [1:43:59] And he endorsed me [1:44:00] right at the beginning, Joe, [1:44:01] right long before you saw [1:44:02] any of the politicians [1:44:03] that were running against. [1:44:05] It was 18 people running. [1:44:07] And they said, [1:44:09] you know, [1:44:10] Sheriff Joe endorsed you. [1:44:11] I said, [1:44:11] you mean from Arizona? [1:44:13] A legend? [1:44:13] Yeah, he endorsed you [1:44:14] before I even started, [1:44:16] practically. [1:44:16] Thank you very much, Joe. [1:44:18] I've been with you all the way. [1:44:19] Thank you. [1:44:19] Appreciate it. [1:44:22] Along with a special [1:44:23] friend of mine [1:44:24] and married to one of the greats, [1:44:26] Rush Limbaugh, [1:44:27] Catherine Limbaugh. [1:44:29] Thank you, Catherine. [1:44:30] Great woman. [1:44:33] And a veteran border patrol agent [1:44:36] who's been a fantastic friend of me [1:44:40] and the campaign [1:44:41] and all of the things, [1:44:42] Art Del Cueto. [1:44:50] And, you know, [1:44:50] we have a lot of athletes [1:44:51] and I sort of think of myself [1:44:53] I'm sort of big. [1:44:55] Sometimes in the wrong direction, [1:44:56] maybe. [1:44:57] These guys are really big. [1:45:01] Ryan Thompson of the Arizona Diamondbacks [1:45:04] is a terrific player. [1:45:09] We have a World Series champion. [1:45:11] I met him today [1:45:12] and I said, [1:45:13] you were a hell of a hitter [1:45:14] and really was a great player [1:45:18] and could be probably still a great player. [1:45:20] Looks good. [1:45:21] World Series champion, [1:45:22] Mark Grace. [1:45:23] Mark, what a good hit. [1:45:29] What about this guy? [1:45:31] World Series MVP. [1:45:33] Remember the blood pouring out of his foot? [1:45:35] It didn't bother him at all. [1:45:37] That blood was pouring the hell out of his foot. [1:45:39] I remember it. [1:45:41] Kurt Schilling. [1:45:42] Thank you. [1:45:50] And they're all characters too, aren't they? [1:45:52] It's really amazing. [1:45:53] We like characters. [1:45:55] Hockey Hall of Famer [1:45:56] and a great golfer. [1:45:58] I can tell you that. [1:45:59] He's really a good golfer. [1:46:00] Jeremy Rooney. [1:46:01] Thank you, Jeremy. [1:46:05] Thank you, man. [1:46:08] What a good golfer he is too, [1:46:09] but probably a little better at hockey. [1:46:12] You know, [1:46:12] supposed to be. [1:46:14] NASCAR great, [1:46:16] Danica Patrick. [1:46:18] Danica? [1:46:19] Where's Danica? [1:46:20] Where is Danica? [1:46:22] I love Danica. [1:46:25] I love her hair. [1:46:26] I always like her hair. [1:46:28] I like the little widow's feet. [1:46:29] Do you know what a widow's feet? [1:46:30] Danica, [1:46:31] where are you, Danica? [1:46:32] So great. [1:46:34] Thank you, darling. [1:46:35] What a job you've done. [1:46:37] What a job you did. [1:46:38] Former NBA All-Star, [1:46:40] Tom Chambers. [1:46:42] Tom, [1:46:43] there's that big guy. [1:46:46] I didn't want my picture next to him. [1:46:49] He stood up. [1:46:50] I said, [1:46:50] is that Tom Chambers? [1:46:51] Yeah. [1:46:51] I said, [1:46:52] well, [1:46:53] let's take it. [1:46:53] I'll stand on this side of the room. [1:46:55] Tom, [1:46:56] send him. [1:46:57] What a job you've done. [1:46:58] Great job, Tom. [1:46:59] Everyone loves you too. [1:47:00] Arizona sports legend. [1:47:02] John Gambo Gambadoro. [1:47:06] John Gambadoro. [1:47:08] Thank you, [1:47:09] John. [1:47:10] Gambo. [1:47:11] Good job. [1:47:13] And a lot more. [1:47:14] We have a lot of celebrities here. [1:47:16] But with your help, [1:47:17] we'll continue to deliver on our mandate [1:47:19] from the American people, [1:47:21] like no president has ever delivered before. [1:47:24] It's what we don't. [1:47:24] We have a mandate, [1:47:25] you know? [1:47:26] They said, [1:47:27] if we could win three or four of the swing states, [1:47:29] that would be incredible. [1:47:31] Because it's a little harder for a Republican [1:47:32] for some reason. [1:47:33] I'll tell you what the reason is they cheat. [1:47:35] That's actually the reason. [1:47:37] They cheat like hell. [1:47:39] Remember I got out, [1:47:40] I said, [1:47:41] make it too big to rig. [1:47:42] Right? [1:47:42] Too big to rig. [1:47:43] Don't believe the polls. [1:47:44] The polls had his way up. [1:47:46] Don't believe the polls. [1:47:49] Too big to rig. [1:47:49] We made it too big to rig. [1:47:51] Just keep going. [1:47:51] No matter what you see, [1:47:53] go out and vote. [1:47:54] And we made it too big to rig. [1:47:56] But they say, [1:48:00] if I want three or four of the swing states, [1:48:03] that should do it. [1:48:04] And we want all seven, [1:48:05] right? [1:48:05] All seven of the states. [1:48:08] As you remember, [1:48:09] I recently directed the secretary of war. [1:48:12] How good is Pete Hexth doing about it? [1:48:14] Begin releasing government files [1:48:21] relating to UFOs [1:48:23] and unexplained aerial phenomena. [1:48:26] And I figured this was a good crowd [1:48:29] because I know you people, [1:48:30] you're really into that. [1:48:31] I don't know who I am. [1:48:32] So I'm pleased to report today. [1:48:35] I thought I'd save it for this crowd [1:48:37] because you're a little bit out there. [1:48:39] You know, a little bit. [1:48:41] That this process is well underway [1:48:43] and we found many very interesting documents, [1:48:46] I must say. [1:48:47] And the first releases [1:48:48] will begin very, very soon. [1:48:50] So you can go out [1:48:51] and see if that phenomena is correct. [1:48:53] You'll figure it out. [1:48:54] Let me know. [1:48:55] Let me know. [1:48:56] But we've had a lot of questions. [1:48:58] It's something that really captivates the mind. [1:49:02] There's no question about it. [1:49:03] With your support, [1:49:05] we will crush violent crime, [1:49:07] impose harsh new penalties [1:49:09] for repeat offenders. [1:49:11] I mean, we have people [1:49:12] that have been taken in 28 times. [1:49:15] We have some 28 times [1:49:16] and they let them go out two days later, [1:49:19] crack down on Marxist prosecutors [1:49:21] and rogue judges. [1:49:22] The judges are horrible. [1:49:26] Ed, deadly sanctuary cities in our country [1:49:28] and end no cash bail, [1:49:31] which really started it all. [1:49:33] No cash bail is a disaster. [1:49:35] Somebody shoots somebody, [1:49:36] they go in, [1:49:36] they just let them out. [1:49:37] Then they go shoot somebody else the same day. [1:49:40] We will stop the radical left Democrats [1:49:43] rampant looting of your taxpayer dollars [1:49:45] and we will win the war on fraud, [1:49:47] which is being headed [1:49:48] by our great vice president, J.D. Vance. [1:49:51] We're going to win it. [1:49:52] We're going to win it. [1:49:53] I said, J.D., I want that job. [1:49:57] I want that job. [1:49:59] It's so bad. [1:50:00] You look at Minnesota, [1:50:01] you look at California, [1:50:02] you look at some of these states, [1:50:03] it's so bad. [1:50:04] Maine, believe it or not, [1:50:05] is terrible. [1:50:06] Maine, who would think Maine is so bad? [1:50:08] But we're right on their S. [1:50:10] We're right on their S. [1:50:11] And we will pass the great healthcare plan. [1:50:15] We call it the great healthcare plan [1:50:17] to stop all payments [1:50:18] to big insurance companies [1:50:19] and give the money. [1:50:21] What we want to do is this. [1:50:22] We want the insurance companies [1:50:26] to be cut out. [1:50:27] We want our government [1:50:28] not to pay trillions of dollars [1:50:30] to insurance companies, [1:50:31] but to pay that same amount of money [1:50:34] directly to the people, [1:50:35] directly, [1:50:36] as you go out and buy [1:50:37] your own healthcare. [1:50:41] And everybody likes it. [1:50:42] The problem is [1:50:43] the Democrats don't like it [1:50:46] because they're owned [1:50:47] by the insurance companies. [1:50:48] So they vote no, no. [1:50:51] But we're going to get it done [1:50:52] one way or the other. [1:50:53] We will make [1:50:53] most favored nation discounts [1:50:55] and drug prices permanent law. [1:50:58] So I got you [1:50:59] drug reductions [1:51:01] on prescription drugs. [1:51:04] Most favored nation. [1:51:06] You know what that means? [1:51:07] That means we pay [1:51:07] the lowest of any nation [1:51:09] in the world. [1:51:11] When I got into office, [1:51:12] we paid the highest [1:51:13] of any nation in the world. [1:51:15] I got the nations to agree [1:51:17] because I threaten them [1:51:18] with tariffs [1:51:18] if they don't do it. [1:51:20] And I got the insurance companies, [1:51:21] I got the drug companies to do it. [1:51:24] So your drug prices [1:51:25] are going to be reduced [1:51:26] by 60, 70, 80, [1:51:28] and in some cases [1:51:28] even more than 80%. [1:51:31] Nobody's ever done that. [1:51:35] And that alone [1:51:35] should win us the midterm, [1:51:37] but it won't [1:51:37] because nobody wants [1:51:39] to write the fake news [1:51:40] as they want to write about it. [1:51:41] It's unbelievable. [1:51:42] With the help [1:51:43] of our secretary, [1:51:45] Robert F. Kennedy Jr., [1:51:47] we will make [1:51:48] America healthy again. [1:51:53] Has anyone ever heard of mom? [1:51:55] We will make [1:51:56] America healthy again. [1:51:58] He's doing a great job, Bobby. [1:51:59] And Dr. Oz [1:52:00] is doing a great job. [1:52:02] Already we eliminated [1:52:03] petroleum-based food dyes, [1:52:06] reformed the vaccine schedule, [1:52:08] and introduced [1:52:08] the real food pyramid. [1:52:11] We're cleaning up [1:52:12] the whole mess. [1:52:13] It's a mess. [1:52:15] And to help young people [1:52:16] afford a house, [1:52:17] we will permanently [1:52:18] ban Wall Street [1:52:19] from buying up [1:52:20] thousands and thousands [1:52:21] of single-family homes [1:52:23] and taking them [1:52:24] off the plate. [1:52:25] And we will pass [1:52:28] the Save America Act [1:52:30] to protect [1:52:31] our sacred [1:52:32] American election [1:52:33] where all voters [1:52:40] must show voter ID, [1:52:41] little things like that. [1:52:43] All voters must show [1:52:44] proof of citizenship. [1:52:45] How about that? [1:52:46] Who would think [1:52:47] it's a 97% issue [1:52:50] and the Democrats [1:52:51] are holding it back? [1:52:52] 97. [1:52:53] It's 87% [1:52:55] with Republicans [1:52:56] and Democrats. [1:52:57] So even Democrats [1:52:58] want it. [1:52:58] But the politicians [1:53:00] don't want Democrats [1:53:01] because when you have [1:53:03] policy as bad as they have, [1:53:04] like men playing [1:53:05] in women's sports, [1:53:07] transgender for everybody, [1:53:09] open borders [1:53:10] where people come [1:53:10] in totally unedited, [1:53:12] just walk into our country [1:53:13] and criminals [1:53:13] all over the world. [1:53:15] When you have, [1:53:15] the only way you can win [1:53:16] is to cheat. [1:53:17] Really, I really believe that. [1:53:18] So they don't want [1:53:19] to have voter ID. [1:53:20] They don't want to have [1:53:21] proof of citizenship. [1:53:23] But we'll get it. [1:53:24] We're going to get it. [1:53:25] And no mail-in ballots [1:53:27] except for illness, [1:53:28] disability. [1:53:29] Military or travel. [1:53:30] Mail-in ballots [1:53:31] are a big fraud. [1:53:33] It's a big fraud. [1:53:34] The mail-in vote [1:53:35] is a big fraud. [1:53:36] And we will also add [1:53:37] into permanent statutes [1:53:39] a very simple thing [1:53:40] called no men [1:53:42] in women's sports [1:53:43] and no transgender [1:53:47] mutilization surgery [1:53:49] for your children. [1:53:50] We're putting that in. [1:53:51] We're putting that in [1:53:53] because I call that [1:53:56] best of. [1:53:56] Do you know what best of? [1:53:57] Best of Trump. [1:53:58] Can you believe it? [1:53:59] Best of Trump. [1:54:01] Men, can I... [1:54:02] Did you ever see [1:54:02] the weightlifting records? [1:54:03] For 18 years, [1:54:05] the record stood [1:54:06] held by a young woman [1:54:08] who was quite strong. [1:54:10] He was like 212 pounds. [1:54:11] That's a lot. [1:54:13] It stood for 18 years. [1:54:15] And then a young man [1:54:18] decided to go [1:54:19] the opposite route. [1:54:21] And he wanted to become [1:54:23] a young woman. [1:54:25] And he transitioned. [1:54:27] And he was a failed [1:54:28] weightlifter in the men's division. [1:54:30] But as a woman, [1:54:31] he was brutal. [1:54:31] And he broke the record. [1:54:35] Remember, [1:54:35] this is a record [1:54:36] that stood for 18 years. [1:54:39] They put an eighth [1:54:40] of an ounce here. [1:54:41] An eighth of an ounce here [1:54:42] for 18 years. [1:54:43] They couldn't quite do it. [1:54:45] He broke the record [1:54:46] by 112 pounds. [1:54:48] Or the swimming records. [1:54:52] Or the long distance [1:54:53] running records. [1:54:55] You could go short distance [1:54:56] also. [1:54:57] Did you see [1:54:58] recently [1:54:59] there was a long distance race. [1:55:02] It went on forever. [1:55:03] One of these [1:55:04] triathlete type races [1:55:06] that had top men, [1:55:08] top women. [1:55:09] The man won by [1:55:10] 5 hours, [1:55:12] 18 minutes, [1:55:13] and 57 seconds. [1:55:16] In fact, [1:55:17] he went home [1:55:18] and took a nap [1:55:19] before getting his award. [1:55:22] He slept for exactly [1:55:23] 5 hours. [1:55:25] Then he got up [1:55:25] and picked up his award. [1:55:28] It's very demeaning [1:55:29] to women. [1:55:30] It's very unfair to women. [1:55:32] But together [1:55:32] we will defend [1:55:33] our cherished American heritage. [1:55:36] We will defeat [1:55:37] America's enemies. [1:55:38] We will unshackle [1:55:39] our magnificent destiny. [1:55:42] We will return [1:55:42] American astronauts [1:55:43] to the moon [1:55:44] and we will plant [1:55:45] our flag [1:55:46] someday soon [1:55:47] on Mars. [1:55:51] For almost 250 years [1:55:52] our nation has stood [1:55:54] as an inspiration [1:55:55] to humanity [1:55:55] and proof [1:55:57] of what America [1:55:58] faith and courage [1:55:59] can achieve. [1:56:00] It's amazing [1:56:00] what's happened, [1:56:01] especially [1:56:02] what's happened [1:56:03] over the last year. [1:56:05] Our ancestors [1:56:06] won our independence, [1:56:08] vanquished foreign armies [1:56:09] and conquered [1:56:11] wild frontiers. [1:56:12] They fought [1:56:13] perilous battles [1:56:14] across jagged mountains [1:56:15] and in the middle [1:56:17] of empty deserts [1:56:18] they built [1:56:18] gleaming cities [1:56:19] like Phoenix, [1:56:21] Arizona. [1:56:22] Have you heard of that? [1:56:27] Right from a desert, [1:56:29] generations before us [1:56:30] poured up [1:56:31] their blood, [1:56:32] sweat and tears [1:56:33] to make America [1:56:34] into the most [1:56:35] exceptional nation [1:56:36] the world has ever known. [1:56:38] And today [1:56:38] we are making it [1:56:39] more exceptional [1:56:40] than ever [1:56:41] thought possible [1:56:43] than ever before. [1:56:44] With your support [1:56:45] in these midterms [1:56:46] we will continue [1:56:47] this momentum [1:56:48] and achieve total [1:56:49] and ultimate victory [1:56:50] for America. [1:56:51] We will fight, [1:56:53] fight, fight [1:56:53] and win, win, win. [1:56:55] And together [1:57:01] we will make America [1:57:04] powerful again. [1:57:06] We will make America [1:57:09] wealthy again. [1:57:11] We will make America [1:57:14] healthy again. [1:57:15] We will make America [1:57:18] strong again. [1:57:20] We will make America [1:57:23] proud again. [1:57:24] We will make America [1:57:27] safe again. [1:57:29] And we will make [1:57:31] America great again. [1:57:34] Thank you very much, [1:57:35] Arizona. [1:57:36] Thank you. [1:57:37] Thank you. [1:57:38] Win those midterms. [1:57:39] Thank you, everybody.
