LIGHT, THE STUFF THAT'S NOT TRUE
OR CONSISTENTLY OR REPEATEDLY 
NOT TRUE ESPECIALLY THE 
DANGEROUS STUFF OR THE 
MISINFORMATION OF CORONAVIRUS 
AND TALKING ABOUT THE VIRUS AS 
IF IT IS OVER AND SHOWING 
AMERICAN AUDIENCE GATHERS THAT'S
NOT TESTED AND NOT WEARING 
MASKS.
THE MISINFORMATION OF COVID THAT
ALSO INCLUDED THE PRESIDENT 
HYPING CHLOROQUINE.
THIS WEEK WE HAVE REPEATEDLY 
TURNING TO DR. VIN GUPTA TO HELP
US FACT-CHECK SOME OF THE 
SPEECHES.
WE WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE COSTS 
OF ALL THE LIES OF COVID.
JOINING US IS DR. GUPTA AT THE 
UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON MEDICAL
CENTER.
DOCTOR, YOU HAVE BEEN A REAL 
COMFORT TO US AND A REAL ASSET 
TO OUR TEAM THIS WEEK.
>> THANKS RACHEL, THANKS FOR 
SAYING THAT.
>> TONIGHT WE ALREADY KNOW THAT 
WE GOT COVID TROUBLE WITH THE 
RNC WITH THE VISUALS WE ARE 
GETTING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE 
ALREADY.
WE THINK IT IS ABOUT 1500 PEOPLE
THERE AND FEW MASKS AND NO 
SOCIAL DISTANCING AT ALL.
WHAT DO YOU THINK THE AMERICAN 
PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW AS WE ARE 
ABOUT TO GET ANOTHER FIRE HOST 
BLAST OF THIS STUFF?
>> YOU BET.
I AM GOING TO TRY TO SAY THIS AS
PRECISELY AS POSSIBLE.
180,000 PEOPLE DID NOT HAVE TO 
DIE IF THERE IS CLEAR, 
CONSISTENT AND EVIDENCE FROM THE
START THAT WE HAVE STUDIES 
SUGGESTING HOW WE HAD A LOCKDOWN
EARLY IN MARCH, WE COULD COME 
BACK MORE QUICKLY THAN WHAT WE 
HAVE NOW AND 80% OF LIVES COULD 
HAVE BEEN SAVED THAT.
PEOPLE NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGING 
THE DEATH TOLL OF 180,000 AND 
COUNTING.
THAT'S NUMBER ONE.
NUMBER TWO, I GOT ASKED 
CONSTANTLY, WHERE DO I GO FOR A 
SOURCE OF TRUTHS.
NO ONE KNOWS.
DIRECTOR REDFIELD IS HAPPY TO 
WALK BACK THE CONFUSING GUIDANCE
OF ASYMPTOMATIC  TESTING.
NO ONE KNOWS WHETHER DO WE GET 
TESTED OR NOT.
WE ARE IGNORING THE CDC AND SAME
WITH GOVERNOR NEWSOM IN 
CALIFORNIA, THAT'S PROBLEMATIC.
AND ON PLASMA, IT MADE NO SENSE.
HE SAID IT ON SUNDAY, 35% OF 
PEOPLE RECEIVED PLASMA SURVIVED 
RELATIVELY TO THOSE WHO DO NOT.
FALSE, NO EVIDENCE.
WHAT IF WE HAVE A VACCINE THAT 
HOPEFULLY LOOKS GOOD TO EXPERTS 
AND THERE IS SCIENCE TO BACK IT 
UP OF A QUALITY OF VACCINE.
THE PRESIDENT GIVEN A PLATFORM 
TO ANTIVACCINES BECAUSE NOBODY 
TRUSTS THEM.
WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM.
>> DR. GUPTA HAS BEEN WITH US 
ALL WEEK AND WILL BE WITH US 
FURTHER ON TONIGHT.
THANK YOU.
WE'LL GO LIVE TO THE REPUBLICAN 
NATIONAL CONVENTION.
SENATOR MITCH McCONNELL IS ABOUT
TO BEGIN.
>> I CONSIDER MY RESPONSIBILITY 
TO LOOK OUT FOR THE MIDDLE 
AMERICA.
PRESIDENT TRUMP KNOWS, HE 
INHERITED THE FIRST GENERATION 
OF AMERICA WHO COULD NOT PROMISE
THEIR CHILDREN A BETTER LIFE.
HE MADE IT HIS MISSION OF THIS 
ADMINISTRATION TO CHANGE THAT.
I KNOW BECAUSE I WORK BESIDES 
HIM EVERYDAY.
TODAY THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY DOES 
NOT WANT TO IMPROVE LIFE FOR THE
MIDDLE AMERICA.
THEY PREFER ALL OF US DECIDE HOW
WE SHOULD LIVE OUR LIVES.
THEY WANT TO TELL YOU WHEN YOU 
COULD GO TO WORK OR WHEN YOUR 
KIDS GO TO SCHOOL.
THEY WANT TO TALK YOUR JOBS OUT 
OF EXISTENCE.
THEY WANT TO TELL YOU WHAT KIND 
OF CAR YOU CAN DRIVE OR WHAT 
INFORMATION ARE CREDIBLE AND 
EVEN HOW MANY HAMBURGERS YOU CAN
EAT.
THEY WANT TO DEFUND THE POLICE 
AND TAKE AWAY YOUR SECOND 
AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
THEY WANT FREE HEALTHCARE FOR 
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND OFFERING 
NO PROTECTION FOR UNBORN 
AMERICANS.
THEY WANT TO CODIFY ALL THIS.
NOW YOU UNDERSTAND WHY DEMOCRATS
SPENT AN ENTIRE WEEK TELLING US 
ABOUT WHO JOE BIDEN IS AND NOT 
WHAT HE INTENDS TO DO.
I AM PROUD OF THE WORK THE 
REPUBLICAN SENATE HAVE DONE.
WE ARE THE FIREWALL AGAINST 
NANCY PELOSI'S AGENDA.
LIKE PRESIDENT TRUMP WE WON'T BE
BULIED BY LIBERAL MEDIA.
WE'LL STAND OUR POSTS ON THE 
HALF OF MILLIONS OF AMERICANS 
DESTROYING US IN TODAY'S 
NEWSPAPER.
WE'LL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT THE 
AMERICAN FAMILY AS WE DEFEAT THE
CORONAVIRUS AND RETURN OUR 
ECONOMY.
THE STAKES HAVE NEVER BEEN 
HIGHER WHICH IS WHY I AM ASKING 
YOU TO SUPPORT REPUBLICAN SENATE
CANDIDATE ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND
REELECT MY FRIEND, PRESIDENT 
TRUMP.
>> MANY OF LIFE'S VALUABLE 
MISSIONS ARE LEARNED ON THE 
FIELD AND THE ABILITY TO OVER 
COME ADVERSITIES.
>> THIS EMBODIES THE AMERICAN 
SPIRIT OF PUSHING BOUNDARIES.
>> ALWAYS STRIVING FOR 
GREATNESS.
YOU FINISH THE FIGHT, LEAD TO 
BEAUTIFUL PLACES.
WE ARE CELEBRATING THE GREAT 
PEOPLE AND YOU WIN ALL.
>> USA!
USA!
>> IT IS AN HONOR TO BE IN THE 
COMPANY OF GREAT, GREAT PEOPLE.
WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT'S 
NEXT.
NEVER GIVE UP, NEVER EVER QUIT, 
KEEP WORKING.
>> I AM DANA WHITE, PRESIDENT OF
THE UFC.
MANY OF YOU KNOW WHO I AM AND 
WHAT I DO AND I AM FRIENDS WITH 
THE PRESIDENT.
I SPOKE AT THIS CONVENTION FOUR 
YEARS AGO AND I AM BACK BECAUSE 
I BELIEVE WE NEED PRESIDENT 
TRUMP'S LEADERSHIP NOW MORE THAN
EVER.
BEFORE THE PANDEMIC PRESIDENT 
TRUMP BUILT THE GREATEST ECONOMY
IN OUR NATION'S HISTORY AND 
CREATED AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL 
AMERICANS LIKE NO ONE BEFORE 
HIM.
FINANCIAL MARKETS HAVE HIT AN 
ALL TIME HIGHS AND UNEMPLOYMENT 
WAS AT AN ALL TIME LOW AND WE 
DID NOT FACE THE DESTRUCTION 
THAT'S NOW OCCURRING IN A FEW OF
OUR BREAK INS.
IT BLOWS MY MIND HOW QUICKLY 
SOME OF THE LEADERSHIPS IN THIS 
COUNTRY FORGOTTEN THE CRITICAL 
ROLE FIRST RESPONDERS PLAY IN 
OUR SOCIETY.
POLICE DEPARTMENTS AND OTHER LAW
ENFORCEMENT AND EVEN SOME FIRE 
DEPARTMENTS HAVE FACED 
OPPOSITIONS FOR MANY IN THIS 
COUNTRY BUT THEY ARE ALWAYS THE 
PEOPLE WHO ARE ASKED TO STEP UP 
WHEN THINGS ARE AT THEIR WORSE 
AND PUT THEMSELVES AT RISK.
THAT'S CERTAINLY BEEN THE CASE 
OF THIS ONGOING PANDEMIC.
COME ON AMERICA, DEFUNDING THESE
VITAL POSITIONS IS NOT THE 
ANSWER.
THE FIRST RESPONDERS HAVE ALWAYS
BEEN TAKEN CARE OF US AND NOW 
MORE THAN EVER WE NEED TO TAKE 
CARE OF THEM.
NOW, LET'S TALK ABOUT COVID AND 
LET'S BE HONEST ABOUT IT.
NO ONE PERSON AND NO ONE PLACE 
COULD HAVE ANTICIPATED THE 
CHALLENGES THAT COVID WOULD 
BRING.
BUT, PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS FACED 
ALL THESE OBSTACLES HEAD ON.
HE IMMEDIATELY PUT PROTECTIVE 
MEASURES IN PLACE AND HE REACHED
OUT TO THE BEST AND LEADING 
AMERICAN BUSINESSES ACROSS 
INDUSTRY TO DISCUSS WHAT HE AND 
THE ADMINISTRATION CAN DO TO GET
THE ECONOMY BACKUP AND RUNNING 
SAFELY.
LET ME GIVE YOU MORE DETAILS.
EARLY APRIL PRESIDENT TRUMP 
ORDERED A TASK AND BUSINESS 
LEADERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND I
WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO SERVE ON
THAT TASK FORCE.
I WITNESSED HOW HARDWORKING 
PRESIDENT TRUMP WAS.
I PERSONALLY OBSERVED HIS 
ABILITY TO LISTEN AND UNDERSTAND
THE ISSUES AND UNPACKING 
AMERICANS OF ALL BACKGROUNDS.
IT WAS CLEAR, HIS HIGHEST 
PRIORITIES WAS THE HEALTH AND 
SAFETY OF EVERYONE AND OUR 
COUNTRY AND NOT JUST 
REPUBLICANS, NOT JUST SUPPORTERS
BUT EVERY SINGLE AMERICAN.
PRESIDENT TRUMP RECOGNIZED THAT 
ONE OF THE SMALL WAYS TO INSTILL
NORMALCY TO PEOPLE'S LIVES IS TO
BRING BACK ENTERTAINMENT.
THE PRESIDENT FIGURED OUT A WAY 
TO OVERCOME THE CHALLENGES OF 
STAGING LIVE SPORTING EVENTS IN 
THE MIDDLE OF THE PANDEMIC.
WE DID.
THE UFC IS THE FIRST TO DO IT 
AND WE CONTINUE TO DO IT.
NOW OTHER SPORTS HAVE JOINED US 
AND SOME OF THE LESSONS LEARNED 
ARE BEING USED TO OPEN OTHER 
BUSINESSES AND SCHOOLS.
MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT.
WE HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO AND 
THAT'S WHY WE NEED A LEADER WITH
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S UNIQUE 
ATTRIBUTE AT THIS TIME.
HE'S ONE OF THE MOST LOYAL HUMAN
BEINGS I HAVE EVER MET.
THE MAN HAS UNSTOPPABLE ENERGY 
AND NO ONE IS GOING TO OUT WORK 
THIS GUY.
HE TRULY LOVES AND BELIEVES IN 
OUR COUNTRY.
HE BELIEVES IN THE PEOPLE OF 
THIS COUNTRY.
AMERICA IS A PLACE EVERYONE 
WANTS A SOLID JOB, THEY WANT TO 
TAKE CARE OF THEIR FAMILY AND 
SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY AND ASSIST
THE LESS FORTUNATE AND ENJOY THE
FREEDOM THIS COUNTRY PROVIDED TO
ALL OF US.
WHILE WE CERTAINLY EXPERIENCED A
TON OF NEGATIVITIES IN 2020, 
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S MINDSET IS TO 
WORK TIRELESSLY TO HELP RESTORE 
AMERICA.
HE DID IT ONCE AND HE'LL DO IT 
AGAIN.
PRESIDENT TRUMP MAY BE THE ONLY 
PRESIDENT IN MODERN TIMES WHO 
ACTUALLY DONE EVERYTHING HE SAID
HE WOULD DO DURING HIS CAMPAIGN.
THERE IS THIS QUOTE THAT I LOVE 
FROM RONALD REAGAN WHERE HE SAID
"THERE IS NOT ANY PROBLEMS WE 
CAN'T SOLVE IF GOVERNMENT WILL 
GIVE US THE FACTS AND TELL US 
WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AND GET 
OUT OF THE WAY TO LET US HAVE AT
IT."
WHAT IT MEANS IS AS AMERICANS WE
WORK HARD AND FACE THE TOUGH 
TIMES HEAD ON.
WHAT UNITES US IS FREEDOM, 
EQUALITY AND OPPORTUNITY.
THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN 
AMERICAN.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, LET'S 
REELECT PRESIDENT TRUMP AND 
FIGURE OUT WHAT THE PROBLEMS ARE
AND CONTINUE TO FIND SOLUTIONS 
TO THOSE PROBLEMS.
I WOULD LIKE TO CLOSE WITH THIS.
WHILE IT IS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT
TO REELECT PRESIDENT TRUMP, THIS
PANDEMIC ALSO TAUGHT US TO BE 
VERY, VERY CAREFUL WHO YOU 
SELECT AS YOUR NEXT GOVERNOR, 
SENATOR, CONGRESSPERSON AND 
MAYOR.
IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO VOTE.
DON'T THINK YOUR VOTE DOES NOT 
MATTER.
TO BE HONEST WITH YOU IT HAS 
NEVER MATTERED MORE THAN IT DOES
RIGHT NOW.
THANK YOU AND HAVE A GREAT 
EVENING AMERICA.
>> THIS IS THE PART WHERE WE POP
UP AND SAY SOME OF WHAT YOU JUST
HEARD IS FORCEFULLY.
I AM SORRY WE HAVE TO DO THIS 
BUT WE DON'T RELISH THIS BUT 
ESPECIALLY ON THE ISSUE OF COVID
WHEN THEY ARE DISTRIBUTING 
DELIBERATELY FALSE INFORMATION 
MISINFORMING THE PUBLIC WHILE WE
ARE STILL DURING A PANDEMIC AND 
LET YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAID IS 
WRONG.
MOMENTS AGO WE WERE SPEAKING 
WITH DR. GUPTA OF HOW BAD IT HAS
BEEN THE PAST THREE NIGHTS OF 
WHAT THEY LIED ABOUT.
WE GOT A NEW BARREL OF STUFF 
THAT WE WANT TO GET A REALITY 
CHECK FROM YOU.
LET ME GIVE YOU SOME OF THESE.
NO ONE PERSON COULD ANTICIPATE 
THE CHALLENGES THAT COVID WOULD 
BRING AS DANA WHITE SAID.
IT WAS ANTICIPATED THAT IT WOULD
LIKELY BE CORONAVIRUS FROM 
CHINA.
THAT'S THE NEXT GLOBAL PANDEMIC.
THERE WAS ANTICIPATION OF THIS, 
WAS THERE?
>> OH, YOU BET THERE WAS, 
RACHEL.
THERE IS SO MUCH I CAN SAY 
THERE.
THE PRESIDENT DID NOT LISTEN TO 
EXPERTS.
ITALY LISTENED TO EXPERTS AND 
SOUTH KOREA LISTENED TO EXPERTS.
THEY HAD MINI SPIKES BUT NOTHING
LIKE WE ARE EXPERIENCING.
LISTENING TO EXPERTS WOULD HAVE 
DONE A LOT FOR US.
THAT'S JUST THE BEGINNING.
DANA WHITE, JUST BECAUSE YOU SAY
IT DOES NOT MAKE IT TRUE.
YES, IT WOULD BE FANTASTIC IF 
THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS ACROSS THE 
COUNTRY COULD AFFORD THE TESTING
THAT THE UFC WAS ABLE TO ACCESS 
AND ACCESS ON A DAILY BASIS.
THEY ARE NOT RICH ENOUGH TO DO 
THAT UNLIKE THE UFC.
UNLESS DANA WHITE WANTS TO 
MORALIZE AND TELL US ACROSS THE 
COUNTRY, MOST PEOPLE CAN'T 
AFFORD WHAT THE UFC AFFORDS.
WHAT THE PRESIDENT -- WE DID 
HAVE FAULTY TESTING AND HE 
PROPOSED CHLOROQUINE AND BAD 
LEADERSHIP CHARACTERIZED HIS 
LEADERSHIP THE LAST MONTHS.
>> HE PUT PROTECTIVE MEASURES IN
PLACE.
THE PRESIDENT SPENT JANUARY TO 
MARCH SAYING THAT THE 
CORONAVIRUS WOULD GO AWAY AND 
THAT IT WOULD MAGICALLY 
DISAPPEAR AND THAT WE HAD A 
CONTAINED AIRTIGHT AND THE 
NUMBER WOULD GO TO ZERO.
THE PRESIDENT THEN STARTED 
PUBLICLY QUESTIONING WHETHER OR 
NOT MASKS WERE EFFECTIVE AND 
STARTED MOCKING PEOPLE WHO WORE 
MASKS INCLUDING HIS PRESIDENTIAL
OPPONENT JOE BIDEN.
WE SEE HIM TONIGHT IN LATE 
AUGUST THIS FAR INTO IT WITH 
180,000 AMERICANS HOLDING AN 
EVENT WHERE MASKS ARE NOT 
REQUIRED AND FEW ARE IN SIGHT.
KAMALA HARRIS MADE A STATEMENT 
THAT ALL WE NEED IS A COMPETENT 
PRESIDENT.
IS THAT FAIR TO SAY?
>> I BET IT IS FAIR TO SAY.
LET ME GIVE SCIENTIFIC FACTS.
AS WE SHUT DOWN IN THE FIRST 
WEEK OF MARCH, WE WOULD HAVE 
SAVED 80% OF LIVES AND WE WOULD 
HAVE A DIFFERENT COURSE OF THIS 
PANDEMIC.
NUMBER TWO, IF AMERICANS ADOPTED
MASKING, 95% OF AMERICANS 
ADOPTED MASKING IN MASKS, WE 
WOULD SAVE MORE LIVES.
THAT'S CLEAR AND PROVEN FACT 
HERE.
THE PRESIDENT IS NOT MODELLING 
THE EXAMPLE.
HE'S NOT DEMONSTRATING THAT 
BEHAVIOR HIMSELF WITH MASKS.
>> VERY QUICKLY, DANA WHITE SAID
EMPHATICALLY THAT DONALD TRUMP 
HELPS NOT JUST SUPPORTERS BUT 
EARLY AMERICANS.
THERE WERE A LOT OF BACK AND 
FORTH WHERE DONALD TRUMP SAID 
GOVERNORS NEED TO GET THEIR OWN 
PPE AND FOUGHT WITH GOVERNORS 
LIKE THE GOVERNOR OF NEW YORK.
HAD THERE NOT BEEN THIS BACK AND
FORTH WHERE DONALD TRUMP WERE 
SAYING DEMOCRATIC GOVERNORS WERE
TO BLAME AND THEY SHOULD HELP 
THEMSELVES.
DO YOU THINK THAT STATEMENT IS 
TRUE THAT HE PRIORITIZED 
EVERYONE REGARDLESS OF PARTY?
>> NO, I DON'T THINK THAT'S TRUE
AT ALL.
TO YOUR SECOND QUESTION I WOULD 
SAY THE BIG ISSUE WHEN WE THINK 
ABOUT THE LAST SIX MONTHS IS THE
DELAYED OF IMPLEMENTING THE 
PRODUCTION ACT.
HOW MANY TIMES DID WE HAVE THIS 
CONVERSATION BECAUSE STATES 
NEEDED TO GET VENTS AND MASKS.
THE PRESIDENT PUT A PRODUCTION 
ACT EARLY AND QUICKLY TO GET 
VENTS WHERE THEY WERE NEEDED AND
PROPER PPE.
YESTERDAY WE WERE TALKING ABOUT 
THIS.
MOST OF THE PPE WE HAD IN APRIL 
WAS IMPORTANT OVERSEAS.
WE DID NOT HAVE THE RIGHT 
EQUIPMENT AND EQUIPMENT HE DID 
PROVIDE WAS FAULTY.
>> DR. GUPTA IS JOINING US FROM 
THE ICU.
WE HOPE WE DO NOT HAVE TO KEEP 
COMING BACK TO YOU TONIGHT.
WE HOPE THIS IS THE END OF THE 
BAD MISINFORMATION OF COVID.
THANK YOU, SIR.
>> I WILL MENTION -- WE'LL TAKE 
A QUICK BREAK.
RIGHT BEFORE DANA WHITE WE HAD 
MITCH McCONNELL SAYING THAT JOE 
BIDEN AND KAMALA HARRIS TELL YOU
WHAT KIND OF CARS YOU CAN DRIVE 
AND HOW MANY HAMBURGERS YOU CAN 
EAT.
THIS IS AN EXTENSION OF THEY 
WANT TO TAKE YOUR FARM ANIMALS 
AWAY.
>> IS THERE FOOTNOTE?
WHERE DID THAT COME FROM?
>> I THINK HE'S JUST THE 
HAMBURGER.
>> AS A MOM I LOVE TO RAISE A 
CHILD WITH UNLIMITED HAMBURGERS.
>> HE WANTS TO CONTROL THE 
NUMBER OF HAMBURGERS I EAT.
>> WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
IT IS EARLY, WATCH OUT.
K
IT IS EARLY, WATCH OUT
If you look close...
Jamie, are there any interesting
photos from your trip?
>>> WE ARE BACK WITH THE ONGOING
COVERAGE OF NIGHT FOUR OF THE 
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION.
LET'S REJOIN THEM.
>> IDENTIFYING PROBLEMS THAT WE 
ARE PUTTING ON THE TABLE THAT WE
ARE HAVING DISCUSSIONS ON.
>> PRESIDENT TRUMP 
ADMINISTRATION HAVE OPENED THEIR
EARS AND LISTENED.
>> IT HAS BEEN IMPROVING PUBLIC 
HOUSING THAT WE ARE 
APPRECIATIVE.
THIS ADMINISTRATION HAVE COME 
AND SHINED THE LIGHT ON WHAT'S 
GOING ON AND BRINGING REAL 
SOLUTIONS TO A REAL PROBLEM.
>> HELLO, I WOULD LIKE TO 
INTRODUCE YOU MY HUSBAND, DAVID,
FATHER OF FIVE AND FATHER OF 12 
AND GRANDFATHER OF 10 AND 
FRIENDS TO THOUSANDS.
HE WAS THE MOST KIND AND 
DEDICATED LOVING LIFE PARTNER I 
COULD HAVE HOPED FOR.
HE HAD A BIG SMILE.
HE WAS BLESSED WITH A GIFT AND 
THAT GIFT ENABLED HIM TO TOUCH 
SOULS AND INSPIRE YOUNG PEOPLE.
HERO HOW KIDS LOVED HIM AND THEY
LOVED HIM BACK.
DAVE WAS ALL ABOUT SERVICE.
HE SERVED 38 YEARS IN THE POLICE
DEPARTMENT AND SIX YEARS AS 
CHIEF OF POLICE AT THE POLICE 
DEPARTMENT.
AFTER 44 YEARS HE RETIRED FROM 
LAW ENFORCEMENT BUT HE NEVER 
RETIRE FROM HELPING A FRIEND IN 
NEED.
SINCE HE BEFRIENDED EVERY PERSON
HE MET, HE WAS A VERY BUSY MAN.
ONE EXAMPLE OF THAT WAS HIS 
FRIENDSHIP WITH MR. LEE.
DAVID MET HIM WHEN LEE WAS JUST 
A KID.
DAVE TOOK A SPECIAL INTEREST 
WITH THE BOY AND THEY BONDED AND
FRIENDSHIP GREW AND REMAINED 
STRONG THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
LEE OPENED A PAWNSHOP AND HE 
TRUSTED DAVE AND ASKED HIM TO 
HELP WITH SECURITY.
DAVE AGREED.
ONE OF THE SHOP'S ALARMS WOULD 
GO OFF AND DAVE INVESTIGATED.
HE WOULD WAKE ME UP HE WAS GOING
TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS ALL 
RIGHT.
MOST OF THE TIMES THEY WERE 
FALSE ALARMS TRIGGERED BY A 
STORM OR ANIMALS BUT NEVER 
RESTED EASILY.
THE ALARM WENT OFF THE MORNING 
OF JUNE WAS FOR REAL.
IT WAS A VIOLENT NIGHT IN ST. 
LOUIS.
AT LEAST FIVE BUSINESSES WERE 
DAMAGED AND LOOTED.
THE - AFTER I HAVE GONE TO BED, 
DAVE RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE 
ALARM COMPANY, THE FRONT DOOR 
PAWNSHOP HAD BEEN BREACHED.
THIS TIME HE DID NOT WAKE ME UP 
TO TELL ME.
HE PROBABLY KNEW I WOULD TRY TO 
STOP HIM OR INSIST ONGOING WITH 
HIM.
AS I SLEPT, LOOTERS WERE 
RANSACKING THE SHOP.
THEY SHOT AND KILLED DAVID IN 
COLD BLOOD.
HIS LAST MOMENT ON EARTH, 
DAVID'S GRANDSON WAS WATCHING 
THE VIDEO ON FACEBOOK REALTIME, 
NOT REALIZING HE WAS WATCHING 
HIS OWN GRANDFATHER DYING ON THE
SIDEWALK.
I LEARNED OF ALL THIS AROUND 
4:00 A.M. WHEN OUR DOORBELL 
RING, THE CHIEF OF POLICE WAS 
STANDING OUTSIDE.
I WONDERED WHY DAVID WAS NOT 
ANSWERING THE DOOR.
IT WAS NOT UNCOMMON FOR HIM TO 
BE WATCHING TV AT THIS TIME.
I CALLED OUT TO HIM SEVERAL 
TIMES AND THERE WAS NO REPLY.
HE WAS NOT THERE.
I LET IN THE CHIEF AND FIGHTING 
BACK TEARS AND GATHER WORDS -- I
RELIVE THAT HORROR IN MY MIND 
EVERY SINGLE DAY.
MY HOPE IS THAT HAVING YOU 
RELIVE WITH ME NOW WILL HELP 
SHAKE THIS COUNTRY FROM THIS 
NIGHTMARE WE ARE WITNESSING IN 
OUR CITIES AND BRING ABOUT 
POSITIVE PEACEFUL CHANGE.
HOW DID WE GET TO THIS POINT 
WHERE SO MANY YOUNG PEOPLE ARE 
CALLOUS AND DIFFERENT TOWARDS 
HUMAN LIVES.
THIS IS NOT A VIDEO GAME WHERE 
YOU CAN COMMIT MAYHEM AND HIT 
RESET AND BRING ALL THE 
CHARACTERS BACK TO LIFE.
DAVE IS NEVER COMING BACK TO ME.
HE WAS JUST MURDERED BY PEOPLE 
HE DID NOT KNOW.
HE WOULD HAVE DONE ANYTHING TO 
HELP THEM.
THEY DO NOT SAVE GUARD BLACK 
LIVES.
THEY ONLY DESTROY THEM.
PRESIDENT TRUMP UNDERSTANDS THIS
AND OFFERED FEDERAL HELP TO 
RESTORE OUR COMMUNITIES AND IN 
TIME WHEN POLICE DEPARTMENTS ARE
SHORT ON RESOURCES AND MANPOWER,
WE NEED THAT HELP.
WE SHOULD ACCEPT THAT HELP.
WE MUST HEAL BEFORE WE CAN 
AFFECT CHANGE.
WE CAN'T HEAL IN DEVASTATION AND
CHAOS
CHAOS.
PRESIDENT TRUMP KNOWS THAT WE 
NEED MORE DAVES IN OUR COMMUNITY
AND NOT FEWER.
WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER IN 
PEACE AND REMEMBER THAT EVERY 
LIFE IS PRECIOUS.
>>> GOOD EVENING, I AM BEN 
CARSON.
A RETIRED NEURAL SURGEON AND A 
PUBLIC SERVANT.
BEFORE I BEGAN, I WOULD LIKE TO 
SAY THAT OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO 
THE BLAKE FAMILY AND THE OTHER 
FAMILIES WHO HAVE BEEN IMPACTED 
BY THE TRAGIC EVENTS IN KENOSHA.
AS JACOB'S MOTHER AS URGED THE 
COUNTRY LET'S USE OUR HEARTS AND
OUR LOVE AND OUR INTELLIGENCE TO
WORK TOGETHER, TO SHOW THE REST 
OF THE WORLD HOW HUMANS ARE 
SUPPOSED TO TREAT EACH OTHER.
AMERICA IS GREAT WHEN WE BEHAVE 
GREATLY.
IN ORDER TO SUCCEED AND CHANGE, 
WE MUST FIRST COME TOGETHER AND 
LOVE OF OUR FELLOW CITIZENS.
HISTORY REMINDS US THAT 
NECESSARY CHANGE COMES THROUGH 
HOPE AND LOVE, NOT SENSELESS AND
DESTRUCTION.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN ONCE SAID TO 
AMERICA DIVIDED THAT "YOUR 
PURPOSE THEN PLAINLY STATED THAT
YOU WILL DESTROY THE GOVERNMENT 
UNLESS YOU BE ALLOWED TO 
CONSTRUE AND ENFORCE THE 
CONSTITUTION AS YOU PLEASE ON 
ALL POINTS OF DISPUTES BETWEEN 
YOU AND US.
YOU WILL RULE OR RUIN ALL 
EVENTS."
THESE WORDS OF WARNING ARE 
RELEVANT TODAY.
WE HAVE A CHOICE, DO WE WANT BIG
GOVERNMENT THAT CONTROLS OUR 
LIVES FROM CRADLE TO GRAVE OR DO
WE BELIEVE IN THE POWER AND 
WISDOM OF THE PEOPLE AND THEIR 
ABILITY TO SELF-GOVERN WITH HELP
FROM A LIMITED FEDERAL 
GOVERNMENT.
OUR PRESIDENT, DONALD TRUMP, 
BELIEVES IN THE PEOPLE.
HE IS ONE OF US, HE MAKE 
PROMISES AND HE KEEPS THEM.
HE IS TRANSPARENT AND WE CERTAIN
LY KNOW WHAT HE'S THINKING.
HE DOES NOT SUBMIT TO POLITICAL 
CORRECTNESS.
HE IS REAL.
RIGHT NOW WE NEED COURAGE.
WE CAN'T COWARD IN THE CORNER 
AND HOPING THAT NO ONE CALLS US 
NAMES AND BELIEVING THAT WILL 
KEEP US SAFE.
THAT'S NOT COURAGE.
THAT'LL NOT LEAD US TO A GOOD 
AND JUST PLACE.
WE MUST REMEMBER ALL THOSE WHO 
SACRIFICED EVERYTHING IN ORDER 
TO GIVE US FREEDOM.
WE MUST BE WILLING TO DO THE 
SAME WHO COMES AFTER US.
PRESIDENT TRUMP DOES NOT DABBLE 
AN IDENTITY POLITICS.
HE WANTS EVERYONE TO SUCCEED AND
BELIEVES IN A RISING TIDE LIFTS 
ALL BOATS.
MANY LOVES TO CLAIM THAT 
PRESIDENT TRUMP IS A RACIST, 
THEY COULD NOT BE MORE WRONG.
JESSE JACKSON GAVE DONALD TRUMP 
AN AWARD FOR THE ECONOMIC 
EQUALITY THAT HE CREATED FOR 
BLACK PEOPLE.
ONE OF THE FIRST THING HE DID AS
PRESIDENT WAS BRING TO OFFICE OF
BLACK COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES 
INTO THE WHITE HOUSE SO THAT IT 
CAN GET PROPER ATTENTION AND 
FINANCIAL SUPPORT.
BEFORE THE PANDEMIC, 
AFRICAN-AMERICAN UNEMPLOYMENT 
WAS AT AN ALL TIME LOW.
PRESIDENT TRUMP ACCOMPLISHED 
PRISON REFORM.
HE CREATED AND SENTENCED TO 
ENCOURAGE INVESTORS TO BECOME 
INVOLVED WITH ECONOMICALLY 
DEPRIVED AREAS OF AMERICA.
HE STRONGLY SUPPORTS SCHOOL 
CHOICE, FULLY RECOGNIZING THAT 
NO MATTER WHAT CIRCUMSTANCES A 
PERSON IS BORN INTO, THEY CAN 
ACHIEVE SUCCESS WITH A GOOD 
EDUCATION.
IT WAS TRUE FOR ME WHEN MY 
MOTHER FORCED ME TO REBOOKS 
ABOUT DOCTORS AND ENTREPRENEURS 
AND INVENTORS AND SCIENTISTS, I 
BEGAN TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE 
PERSON WHO HAS THE MOST TO DO 
WHAT HAPPENS TO YOU IN LIFE IS 
YOU.
MY MOTHER ALWAYS TOLD ME, BEN, 
YOU CAN DO ANYTHING BUT I WILL 
NEVER ALLOW YOU TO BECOME A 
VICTIM.
IT WAS THEN THAT I STOP 
LISTENING TO THE PEOPLE WHO WERE
TRYING TO CONVINCE ME THAT I WAS
A VICTIM AND OTHERS RESPONSIBLE 
FOR MY VICTIM HOOD.
AFRICAN-AMERICANS HAVE THE 
HIGHEST ABORTION RATE.
PRESIDENT TRUMP IS THE MOST 
PRO-LIFE IN AMERICAN HISTORY.
AMERICA IS THAT SHINY CITY.
WE ARE THE BEACON OF HOPE FOR 
THE WORLD.
AT THIS MOMENT IN TIME PRESIDENT
TRUMP IS THE MAN WITH THE 
COURAGE, VISION AND THE ABILITY 
TO KEEP IT SHINING BRIGHTLY.
>> OUR HOUSING SECRETARY, BEN 
CARSON, WITH HIS REMARKS 
TONIGHT.
WE'LL TAKE A QUICK BREAK HERE.
I WILL TELL YOU IN TERMS OF 
WHAT'S COMING AHEAD.
WE ARE EXPECTING REMARKS FROM 
RUDY GIULIANI AND WE ARE 
EXPECTING REMARKS FROM TOM 
COTTON, ON THE ISSUE OF FOREIGN
>>> WE ARE BACK.
WE ARE AWAITING RUDY GIULIANI'S 
SPEECH.
IT SHOULD BE POINTED OUT THAT 
RUDY GIULIANI IS UNDER 
INVESTIGATION.
>> HE WAS UNDER INVESTIGATION BY
NEW YORK.
THAT WAS KNOWN PUBLICLY BEFORE 
WILLIAM BARR CAME DOWN AND 
OUSTED THE U.S. ATTORNEY THERE.
A LOT OF SPECULATION TO WHETHER 
OR NOT HE WAS TRYING TO UNDO ANY
POTENTIAL PROSECUTION FOR RUDY 
GIULIANI.
>> INTERESTINGLY THAT A PERSON 
OF ALL THAT OF WHAT SHE SAID, 
YOU HAVE DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB 
OF SIGNALING HOW FICTIONALLIZE 
THE COVID STUFF IS.
HERE HE IS.
>> I AM A FORMER MAYOR OF NEW 
YORK CITY.
IN 2013, MY CITY ELECTED A 
SELF-DESCRIBED PROGRESSIVE 
DEMOCRAT AS MAYOR.
NEW YORK CITY HAS BECOME BY THE 
MID 1990s OF AMERICAN'S SAFEST, 
LARGEST CITY.
TODAY MY CITY IS IN SHOCK.
MURDERS AND SHOOTINGS AND 
VIOLENT CRIMES ARE SHOOTING AT A
PERCENTAGE THAT'S UNHEARD OF IN 
THE PAST.
WE ARE SEEING A RETURN OF 
RIOTING AND LOOTING.
DURING RIOTS THIS DEMOCRATIC 
MAYORS -- EVEN WHEN ARRESTS ARE 
MADE, LIBERAL, PROGRESSIVE 
D.A.'S RELEASED THE RIOTS.
HOW DID WE GET OVERWHELMED BY 
CRIMES.
THE DEMOCRATS ARE URGING YOU TO 
VOTE FOR A DEFECTIVE CANDIDATE.
BIDEN HAS CHANGED HIS PRINCIPLES
SO OFTEN THAT HE NO LONGER HAS 
PRINCIPLES.
HE'S A TROJAN HORSE WITH BERNIE,
PELOSI AND BLACK LIVES MATTER 
AND HIS ENTIRE LEFT WING JUST 
WAITING TO EXECUTE THEIR 
ANTIPOLICE SOCIALIST POLICIES.
THE WHOLE UNPRECEDENTED -- IT 
BEGAN WITH A TRULY JUST CAUSE, 
THE UNFORGIVABLE OF POLICE 
KILLING OF GEORGE FLOYD IN 
MINNEAPOLIS.
PEACEFUL PROTESTS BEGAN ALL OVER
THE LAND.
THE CONDEMNATION OF THE KILLING 
WAS UNIVERSAL.
IT SEEMS FOR A FEW BRIEF SIGNING
MOMENTS THAT DEMOCRATS AND 
REPUBLICAN LEADERS WOULD COME 
TOGETHER WITH A UNIFIED PROPOSAL
TO REDUCE POLICE MISCONDUCT.
THIS POSSIBILITY WAS DANGEROUS 
TO THE LEFT.
THEY HAD A PRESIDENT AND A 
COUNTRY TO DESTROY.
IT WOULD ALSO MAKE PRESIDENT 
TRUMP APPEARS TO BE AN EFFECTIVE
LEADER.
THEY COULD HAVE NONE OF THAT SO 
BLACK LIVES MATTER AND GOING 
INTO ACTION AND IN THE FLESH 
THEY HIJACKED THE PEACEFUL 
PROTESTS INTO VICIOUS AND BRUTAL
RIOT.
SOON PROTESTS TURNED INTO RIOTS,
ALMOST ALL DEMOCRATS.
PEOPLE BEATEN AND SHOT AND 
KILLED AND POLICE OFFICERS 
ROUTINELY ASSAULTED AND BADLY 
BEATEN AND MURDERED.
POLICE HANDCUFFED BY PROGRESSIVE
DEMOCRATIC MAYORS FROM DOING 
ANYTHING BUT OBSERVING THE 
CRIMES.
THE WORST IS INNOCENT YOUNG 
PEOPLE WITH THEIR WHOLE LIVES 
AHEAD OF THEM.
17-YEAR-OLD BASKETBALL STAR, 
BRANDON HENDRICKS KILLED IN THE 
BRONX DAYS AFTER GRADUATING HIGH
SCHOOL.
HE PASSED WITH ONLY A BRIEF 
MENTION.
ONE-YEAR-OLD DAVIN GUARD JR. WAS
SHOT AND KILLED IN HIS STROLLER 
AND CAUSED NO OUTRAGE IN 
BROOKLYN.
FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP AND FOR US 
REPUBLICANS, ALL BLACK LIVES 
MATTER AND THE LIVES OF BRANDON 
MATTERED TO US.
ALL LIVES MATTER TO US.
THESE CONTINUOUS RIOTS IN 
DEMOCRATIC CITIES GIVE YOU A 
GOOD VIEW OF THE FUTURE UNDER 
BIDEN.
ALL FIVE OF THE TOP CITIES FOR 
HOMICIDES LIKE TOP CITIES FOR 
RIOTING AND LOOTING OR GOVERN BY
PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS, USING THE
PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRATS APPROACH 
FOR CRIMES WHICH IS TO DO 
NOTHING.
GO TO WAR WITH THE POLICE, THE 
ONLY GROUP WITH THE CAPABILITY 
TO PROTECT NEW YORK CITIZENS.
IT IS CLEAR THAT A VOTE FOR 
BIDEN AND THE DEMOCRATS CREATE 
THE RISK THAT YOU WILL BRING 
THIS LAWLESSNESS TO YOUR CITY 
 
AND TOWN AND SUBURB.
THERE IS ALSO NO QUESTION THAT 
PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL FIGHT WITH 
ALL HIS MIGHT TO PRESERVE OUR 
WAY OF LIFE.
IN CRITICAL TIMES IN OUR 
HISTORY, AMERICA HAS ALWAYS BEEN
BLESSED WITH THE RIGHT PERSON TO
HANDLE THE CRISIS.
WASHINGTON, ROOSEVELT, REAGAN 
WERE PERFECT FOR THE CHALLENGES 
THEY FACED AND BROUGHT OUR 
NATION THROUGH GLORIOUS.
PRESIDENT TRUMP WITH HIS LOVE OF
THE COUNTRY AND ALL OUR PEOPLE, 
HIS DISCIPLINED WORK ETHICS AND 
EXCEPTIONAL ABILITY TO INSPIRE 
AND DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF OUR 
CITIZENS OF THE GOVERNMENT AND 
THE STRENGTH, THE MAN WE CAN 
TRUST AND IMPROVE OUR WAY OF 
LIFE.
MR. PRESIDENT, MAKE OUR NATION 
SAFE AGAIN.
>> RUDY GIULIANI.
KIND OF IN THE MOMENT.
I AM GOING TO INTERJECT THERE 
JUST FOR A MOMENT.
HE SAYS NEW YORK CITY ONCE 
DESCRIBED AS AMERICA'S CRIME 
CAPITAL HAVE BECOME THE MID-90s 
OF AMERICA'S SAFEST CITY AND NOW
TODAY MY CITY IS IN SHOCK OF 
MURDERS AND CRIMES.
>> SO FAR THIS YEAR, THERE ARE 
259.
THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY DON'T 
RELEASE RIOTERS SO AS TO DISRUPT
THE RIOTING.
THIS GIVES YOU A GOOD VIEW OF 
THE FUTURE UNDER BIDEN.
DONALD TRUMP IS PRESIDENT RIGHT 
NOW AND HE ALSO --
>> RUDY GIULIANI SAYS BLACK 
LIVES MATTER AND THEY HIJACK AND
PROTESTS TURNED INTO RIOTS AND 
ALMOST DEMOCRATS - JUST TO NOTE 
AND BE CLEAR FOR THE AUDIENCE.
THERE HAS BEEN ZERO BLACK LIVES 
MATTER MEMBERS ARRESTED FOR 
SETTING FIRES AND CAUSING -- WE 
HAVE SEEN IN KENOSHA OF THE 
YOUNG 17-YEAR-OLD AND IN 
MINNEAPOLIS AFTER GEORGE FLOYD 
WAS KILLED IN MAY, YOU HAD A 
WHITE SUPREMACIST ARRESTED FOR 
BREAKING WINDOWS AND THERE ARE 
OTHERS COMING INTO THIS PROTESTS
PROTESTS -- 
>> I HAVE MORE TO SAY ABOUT RUDY
GIULIANI.
WE'LL GO LIVE TO SENATOR TOM 
COTTON.
WE'LL BE BACK AFTER THIS.
>> I AM SENATOR TOM COTTON.
A LOT HAS CHANGED IN FOUR YEARS.
BACK THEN WE GATHERED IN AN 
ARENA AND TONIGHT YOU ARE 
PROBABLY AT HOME AND I STAND 
ALONE.
STAND ALONE.
THE ORIGINAL BAND OF BROTHERS 
FROM THE NORMANDY BEACHES TO THE
IRAQI DESERTS WE FOUGHT 
ALONGSIDE EACH OTHER BUT WE ARE 
ALWAYS PREPARE TO STAND ALONE.
WE LEAD THE FREE WORLD BUT WE'LL
STAND ALONE IF WE MUST TO DEFEND
AMERICA.
DONALD TRUMP UNDERSTANDS THIS.
HE PUTS AMERICA FIRST.
THAT'S WHY AMERICA IS SAFER NOW 
THAN FOUR YEARS AGO.
JOE BIDEN WOULD RETURN US TO THE
WEAK AND DANGEROUS PATH.
BARACK OBAMA'S OWN SECRETARY OF 
DEFENSE SAID JOE BIDEN HAS BEEN 
WRONG ON NEARLY EVERY MAJOR 
NATIONAL SECURITY DECISION OVER 
THE PAST FOUR DECADES.
LET'S COMPARE THE RECORDS OF JOE
BIDEN AND DONALD TRUMP.
JOE BIDEN SLASHED DEFENSE 
SPENDING AGAIN AND AGAIN.
PRESIDENT TRUMP REBUILT OUR 
MILITARY AND ADDED THE SPACE 
FORCE.
JOE BIDEN LET ISIS TERRORISTS 
RAMPAGE ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST.
PRESIDENT TRUMP ELIMINATED ISIS'
LEADER AND DESTROYED THEIR 
CALIPHATE.
JOE BIDEN SENT CASH -- PRESIDENT
TRUMP RIPPED UP THE DANGEROUS 
IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL.
JOE BIDEN TREATED ISRAEL LIKE A 
NUISANCE.
PRESIDENT TRUMP MOVED OUR 
EMBASSY TO JERUSALEM AND BROKE 
THE PEACE DEAL IN THE MIDDLE 
EAST.
PRESIDENT TRUMP FIGHT AGAINST 
COMMUNISM IN AMERICA'S BACKYARD 
AND AROUND THE WORLD.
ON THE COMMUNIST PARTY OF 
CHINA,
THERE IS NO COMPARISON.
PRESIDENT TRUMP STANDS UP TO 
CHINA'S CHEATING AND STEALING 
AND LYING.
JOE BIDEN ALLOWED CHINESE 
FETANYL -- JOE BIDEN SAYS 
CHINESE ARE NOT OUR COMPETITORS.
PRESIDENT TRUMP IS CLEAR EYED 
ABOUT THE CHINESE THREAT AND 
HE'S MAKING CHINA PAY.
CHINA IS NOT GIVING UP.
THEY ARE ROOTING FOR JOE BIDEN.
AMERICA'S OTHER ENEMIES WON'T 
GIVE UP EITHER.
JOE BIDEN WILL BE AS WRONG AND 
WEAK OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS AS
HE HAS BEEN FOR THE LAST 50.
WE NEED A PRESIDENT WHO STANDS 
UP FOR AMERICA.
NOT ONE WHO TAKES IT.
A STRONG AMERICA IS A SAFE 
AMERICA, SAFE FROM OUR ENEMY AND
WAR.
NO ONE SEEN THE FACE OF WAR.
TOO MANY OF OUR FELLOW AMERICANS
ARE ALREADY HONORED AT THE 
HOLLOW GROUNDS OF ARLINGTON.
IF WE WANT PEACE, WE MUST BE 
STRONG, WEAKNESS IS PROVACATIVE.
PRESIDENT TRUMP'S STRENGTHS KEPT
US OUT OF WAR.
JOE BIDEN WON'T STAND UP FOR 
AMERICA.
DONALD TRUMP WILL.
SO THIS NOVEMBER, LET'S STAND 
WITH THE PRESIDENT AND VOTE TO 
KEEP AMERICA GREAT.
>> ARKANSAS SENATOR, TOM COTTON.
WE'LL INTERJECT HERE.
OUR NATIONAL SECURITY ADVISOR 
BEN RHODES.
WE STILL HAVE MORE TO TALK ABOUT
IN TERMS OF WHAT RUDY GIULIANI 
JUST SAID.
I WANT TO GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO 
GIVER US A REALITY CHECK OF WHAT
WE HEARD FROM SENATOR COTTON.
I WANT TO ASK YOU WHAT STOOD OUT
TO YOU.
AT THE OUT SET OF HIM SAYING 
THAT JOE BIDEN CUDDLED DICTATORS
WHILE PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS BEEN 
STANDING UP TO CHINA AND CLEAR 
EYED ABOUT THE CHINESE THREAT.
THAT STRUCK ME AS SOMETHING WE 
SHOULD INTERJECT ABOUT.
>> THERE ARE TWO IMPORTANT 
POINTS HERE.
ONE IS ALL OF DONALD TRUMP'S 
LEADERS AROUND THE WORLD ARE 
DICTATORS, VLADIMIR PUTIN, KIM 
JONG-UN IN KOREA.
DONALD TRUMP ALIENATED ALL OF 
OUR ALLIES.
AS THEY PUT THEMSELVES FORWARD, 
TOM COTTON IS THE ONE PROPOSED 
USING MILITARY INTENSITY 
PEACEFUL PROTESTERS.
THAT COMPLETELY EVISCERATE 
AMERICA'S WORLD STANDINGS AROUND
THE WORLD.
OUR CAPACITY STAND FOR 
DEMOCRATIC VALUES SUFFERED FROM 
THE LAST FOUR YEARS BECAUSE OF 
THE BRAND OF POLITICS PRACTICED 
BY DONALD TRUMP AND TOM COTTON.
NOT ONLY THE TRUMP'S POLICY 
BEING ALL ABOUT DRAWING 
CONCLUSIONS FROM DICTATORS AND 
AWAY FROM OUR DEMOCRATIC VALUES.
THEY PORTRAY THOSE VALUES AT 
HOME SO WE HAVE NO STANDING 
SUPPORT AROUND THE WORLD.
>> YOU HAVE TO TAKE ME THROUGH 
THE FACT PATTERN HERE.
JOE BIDEN LET ISIS TERRORISTS 
RAMPAGE ACROSS THE MIDDLE EAST.
DONALD TRUMP PUT THAT IN MOTION,
NO?
>> YES.
AND NICOLE, I WOULD LIKE TO BE 
VERY CLEAR, ANY ANALYSTS 
INCLUDING OUR COLLEAGUES WHO IS 
UNDER OBAMA AND TRUMP, ANYBODY 
ANALYSTS WILL TELL YOU THAT 
BARACK OBAMA HAD PUT A PLAN IN 
PLACE IN  OF THAT PLAN, THE 
KURDS, DONALD TRUMP BETRAYED 
THEM BECAUSE ONE OF THE 
DICTATORS CALLED HIM AND ASKED 
HIM TO WITHDRAW THE U.S. FORCES 
WHO WERE PROTECTING THOSE KURDS 
AND THEY WERE KILLED AND THEY 
HAD TO FLEE ALL BECAUSE DONALD 
TRUMP PUT THE ADVICE OF A 
DICTATOR.
NO.
THEY CONTINUED THEIR CAMPAIGN 
AND THEN THEY PULLED THE PLUG 
AND BETRAYED THE PEOPLE THAT 
FOUGHT FOR THAT CAMPAIGN ON THE 
GROUND. 
>> THANK YOU.
I MENTIONED THAT WE ALSO WANT TO
ADD SOME SORT OF REALITY CHECK 
TO SOME OF WHAT WE JUST HEARD, 
THE SORT OF FIRE HOSE SPEECH, AN
ANIMATED RUDY GIULIANI TALKING 
ABOUT NEW YORK AS A HELLSCAPE.
WE HAVE CALLED MIA WHILEY.
SHE'S CURRENTLY A PROFESSOR AT 
THE NEWS SCHOOL AND SHE IS 
PUBLICALLY WEIGHING A RUN FOR 
MAYOR HERSELF.
THANKS FOR JOINING US.
IT IS GOOD TO HAVE YOU HERE. 
>> IT IS GREAT TO BE HERE.
TELL US ABOUT THE TAIL THAT 
MAYOR GIULIANI JUST TOLD US IN 
WHICH THERE IS NO MORE POLICING 
AND IT'S ALL THE FAULT OF 
DEMOCRATS.
>> LET'S JUST SAY ONE THING.
AS YOU SAID EARLIER, WE HAVE AT 
LEAST HALF THE MURDER RATE THAT 
GIULIANI HAD IN HIS BEST YEAR.
AND THE REALITY IS RUDY GIULIANI
SPENT MORE TIME FOCUSSING ON 
BUSTING LOW-LEVEL CRIME THAN 
FIXING THE BROKEN WINDOWS THAT 
HE SAID WERE THE CAUSE OF THEM.
AND I THINK WHAT'S IMPORTANT 
HERE TO REMEMBER IS WE HAVE A 
TRUMP ADMINISTRATION THAT HAS 
GIVEN US RECORD UNEMPLOYMENT.
IT'S EASIER TO GET A GUN IN THE 
CITY THAN IT IS TO GET A JOB FOR
FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE.
AND WHAT WE KNOW FROM THE 
RESEARCH IS GET PEOPLE JOBS, WE 
DON'T FROM MURDER RATES.
IT IS ALL ABOUT THE 
OPPORTUNITIES.
AND THIS IS THE ADMINISTRATION 
THAT ENSURED US THAT COVID 
BECAME A CRISIS FOR THE ECONOMY 
AND THAT IS A SERIOUS CONCERN 
FOR NEW YORK CITY.
>> MIA, HEY, IT'S JOY.
RUDY GIULIANI SEEMED TO BE UPSET
ABOUT THE IDEA OF POLICE 
ACCOUNTABILITY.
CAN YOU DESCRIBE THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN THE GIULIANI 
ADMINISTRATION APPROACHED POLICE
ACCOUNTABILITY AND THE WAY 
POLICE ACCOUNTABILITY IS 
APPROACHED UNDER MAYOR de BLASIO
BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO BE THAT 
MAYOR GIULIANI BELIEVES THAT 
BLACK LIVES MATTER IS ALLOWED TO
RUN THE CITY AND POLICE ARE NOT 
ALLOWED TO POLICE THE PROTESTS. 
>> YEAH.
LET'S REMEMBER THAT A LOT OF 
WHAT WAS BEING CALLED CRIMINAL 
ACTIVITY IN NEW YORK CITY THAT 
BEGAN UNDER RUDY GIULIANI WAS 
ESSENTIALLY WALKING WHILE BLACK 
FOR LATINO, TALKING WHILE BLACK 
OR LATINO.
IT WAS CALLED STOP AND FRISK.
WHAT IT MEANT WAS FAR TOO MANY 
PEOPLE GOING ABOUT THEIR 
BUSINESS WERE GETTING STOPPED 
AND FRISKED.
AND ALMOST NO ONE WAS GETTING 
CHARGED WITH A CRIME.
BUT WHAT THAT MEANT WAS A LOT OF
POLICE ENCOUNTERS WITH A LOT OF 
RESIDENTS COMPLAINED OF ABUSE, 
AND THAT IS WHAT WE HAD TO 
ADDRESS IN THE RECENT YEARS AND 
THAT IS THE ACCOUNTABILITY THAT 
PEOPLE ARE PROTESTING FOR. 
>> PREVIOUSLY SERVING AS ADVISER
FOR MAYOR de BLASIO.
THANK YOU FOR BEING WITH US ON 
SHORT NOTICE TONIGHT.
WE WILL GET BACK TO THE 
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION.
A FEATURED SPEAKER, SOMEONE WHO 
HAS RECEIVED A PARDON FROM 
PRESIDENT TRUMP. 
>> GOOD EVENING.
I WAS ONCE TOLD THAT THE ONLY 
WAY I WOULD EVER BE REUNITED 
WITH MY FAMILY WOULD BE AS A 
CORPSE.
BUT BY THE GRACE OF GOD AND THE 
COMPASSION OF PRESIDENT DONALD 
JOHN TRUMP I STAND BEFORE YOU 
TONIGHT.
AND I ASSURE YOU I'M NOT A 
GHOST.
I AM ALIVE.
I AM WELL.
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, I AM FREE.
IN 1996 I BEGAN SERVING TIME IN 
PRISON, LIFE PLUS 25 YEARS.
I HAD NEVER BEEN IN TROUBLE.
I WAS A FIRST-TIME NON-VIOLENT 
OFFENDER.
WHAT I DID WAS WRONG.
I MADE DECISIONS THAT I REGRET.
SOME SAY YOU DO THE CRIME, YOU 
DO THE TIME.
HOWEVER, THAT TIME SHOULD BE 
FAIR AND JUST.
WE HAVE ALL MADE MISTAKES.
NONE OF US WANT TO BE DEFINED 
FOREVER BASED ON OUR WORST 
DECISION.
WHILE IN PRISON, I BECAME A PLAY
WRIGHT, A MENTOR, A CERTIFIED 
HOSPICE VOLUNTEER, AN ORDAINED 
MINISTER AND RECEIVED A SPECIAL 
OLYMPICS EVENT COORDINATOR OF 
THE YEAR AWARD FOR MY WORK WITH 
DISABLED WOMEN BECAUSE THE ONLY 
THING WORSE THAN UNJUSTLY 
IMPRISONING MY BODY IS TRYING TO
IMPRISON MY MIND.
MY TRANSFORMATION WAS DESCRIBED 
AS EXTRAORDINARY.
TRUE THIS.
THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE 
JUST LIKE ME WHO DESERVE THE 
OPPORTUNITY TO COME HOME.
I NEVER STOPPED FIGHTING FOR MY 
FREEDOM.
MY CHRISTIAN FAITH AND THE 
PRAYERS OF SO MANY KEPT HOPE 
ALIVE.
WHEN PRESIDENT TRUMP HEARD ABOUT
ME, ABOUT THE INJUSTICE OF MY 
STORY, HE SAW ME AS A PERSON.
HE HAD COMPASSION, AND HE ACTED.
FREE IN BODY THANKS TO PRESIDENT
TRUMP, BUT FREE IN MIND THANKS 
TO THE ALL MIGHTY GOD.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
I ALWAYS REMEMBERED THAT GOD 
KNEW MY NAME EVEN IN MY DARKEST 
HOUR.
BUT I NEVER THOUGHT A PRESIDENT 
WOULD.
WHEN I WAS RELEASED ON JUNE 6th,
2018, I RAN ACROSS THAT ROAD AND
HUGGED MY GRANDCHILDREN FOR THE 
FIRST TIME.
I'LL NEVER FORGET THAT FEELING.
AND THEN I REMEMBERED THE 
PROMISE I HAD MADE TO THE MEN 
AND WOMEN I LEFT BEHIND, THAT I 
WOULD NEVER STOP FIGHTING FOR 
THEM AND I HAVEN'T.
I'M USING MY VOICE TO TELL THEIR
STORIES, AND I PRAY THAT MY FACE
REMINDS YOU OF THOSE FORGOTTEN 
FACES.
SIX MONTHS AFTER PRESIDENT TRUMP
GRANTED ME A SECOND CHANCE, HE 
SIGNED THE FIRST STEP ACT INTO 
LAW.
IT WAS REAL JUSTICE REFORM, AND 
IT BROUGHT JOY, HOPE AND FREEDOM
TO THOUSANDS OF WELL DESERVING 
PEOPLE.
I HOLLERED HALL LIEU YEAH.
MY FAITH IN JUSTICE AND MERCY 
WAS REWARDED.
IMAGINE GETTING TO HUG YOUR 
LOVED ONES AGAIN AND TO THINK 
THIS FIRST STEP MEANT SO MUCH TO
SO MANY.
I CAN'T WAIT BECAUSE WE'RE JUST 
GETTING STARTED.
THE NEARLY 22 YEARS I SPENT IN 
PRISON WERE NOT WASTED.
GOD HAD A PURPOSE AND A PLAN FOR
MY LIFE.
I WAS NOT DELAYED OR DENIED.
I WAS DESTINED FOR SUCH A TIME 
AS THIS.
I PRAY THAT YOU WILL NOT JUST 
HEAR THIS MESSAGE, BUT THAT YOU 
WILL BE INSPIRED BY MY STORY AND
YOUR COMPASSION WILL LEAD YOU TO
TAKE ACTION FOR THOSE WHO ARE 
FORGOTTEN.
THAT'S WHAT OUR PRESIDENT DONALD
TRUMP DID FOR ME.
AND FOR THAT, I WILL BE FOREVER 
GRATEFUL.
GOD BLESS YOU.
GOD BLESS PRESIDENT TRUMP.
AND GOD BLESS AMERICA.
THANK YOU.
♪♪ 
>> ALICE JOHNSON SPEAKING ON THE
FOURTH AND FINAL NIGHT OF THE 
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION.
WE'LL SAVE THE ANALYSIS FOR 
LATER.
I WILL TELL YOU, BOY, IS SHE A 
GOOD SPEAKER, JUST IF TERMS OF 
HER MESSAGE THERE, I THINK 
PROBABLY THE BEST SPEAKER WE 
HAVE SEEN THROUGHOUT THE FOUR 
NIGHTS OF THE CONVENTION THUS 
FAR.
I AM INTERJECTING TO LET YOU 
KNOW WHAT IS COMING UP.
WE ARE HEADING INTO WHAT BRIAN 
WILLIAMS WOULD CALL THE SHANK OF
THE EVENING.
WE'RE HAVING AN INTRODUCTORY 
VIDEO FROM THE TRUMP CAM PAIN 
RIGHT NOW AND THEN WE WILL BE 
TWO MAJOR SPEAKERS, IVANKA 
TRUMP, WHO IS THE PRESIDENT'S 
ELDEST DAUGHTER IS GOING TO GIVE
A SPEECH FROM THE WHITE HOUSE 
AND THE PRESIDENT WILL GIVE A 
SPEECH FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.
IT IS WEIRD, AND THAT'S A 
TECHNICAL TERM, THAT THIS IS 
HAPPENING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE.
WE WANT TO TALK ABOUT THAT FOR A
SECOND AND GET A REALITY CHECK 
ON THAT FOR A SECOND.
MICHAEL, CAN YOU TALK TO US 
ABOUT THOSE TWO THINGS TONIGHT 
FROM A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE 
WHY IT IS UNUSUAL, WHY WE SHOULD
BE MAKING A DOUBLE TAKE ABOUT 
THE FACT THIS IS HAPPENING FROM 
THE WHITE HOUSE AND THAT THERE 
IS A PRESIDENTIAL DAUGHTER AND 
SENIOR ADVISER IN ONE PERSON WHO
WILL BE GIVING THE INTRODUCTORY 
PROCESS HERE. 
>> THE HATCH ACT IS SUPPOSED TO 
KEEP POLITICAL CAM PAINING AWAY 
FROM FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND 
FEDERAL PROPERTY.
INSTEAD WE SEE THE CAMPAIGN WITH
CAMPAIGN BANNERS AND DONORS AND 
THE SOUTH LAWN WHICH FOR 220 
YEARS HAS BEEN KEPT ABOVE 
PARTISAN POLITICS.
THE SOUTH LAWN OF THE WHITE 
HOUSE IS NOW TURNED INTO THE 
FLOOR OF A REPUBLICAN 
CONVENTION.
THAT HOUSE BELONGS TO ALL OF US.
IT JUST DOESN'T BELONG TO 
SOMEONE WHO IS PARTICULARLY A 
PRESIDENT.
AND EVEN WORSE, RACHEL, IN 
AMERICA'S DEMOCRACY, WE ARE 
NEVER SUPPOSED TO MERGE THE 
SYMBOLS OF OUR STATE WITH 
POLITICAL CAMPAIGNING AND A 
POLITICAL PARTY.
THAT'S WHAT DICTATORSHIPS DO.
THAT'S WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE 
TONIGHT.
AND ALSO ANOTHER THING THAT 
DICTATORSHIPS DO IS THEY 
EMPHASIZE THE INDIVIDUAL 
LEADERS, PART OF ALMOST A 
PERSONALITY CULT.
ALL THIS WEEKNIGHT AFTER NIGHT 
DONALD TRUMP, IT IS THE KIND OF 
THING WE DON'T SEE AT A NORMAL 
CONVENTION AND MEMBERS OF HIS 
FAMILY, EVEN THE GIRLFRIEND OF 
ONE OF HIS SONS, THIS IS NOT 
NORMAL.
REMEMBER WHAT BARACK OBAMA SAID 
LAST YEAR, DO NOT LET THEM TAKE 
AWAY OUR DEMOCRACY. 
>> MICHAEL, IT'S NICOLE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SPENDING 
SOME TIME WITH US AND PUTTING 
THAT HISTORICAL FRAME ON THE 
ABNORMALITIES.
I WANT TO ASK YOU ABOUT THE 
RESPONSE TO THE ABNORMALITIES.
WHEN THE VIOLATIONS OF THE HATCH
ACT WERE RAISED, THE CHIEF OF 
STAFF MIKE MEADOWS SAID NOBODY 
CARES.
IF YOU HAVE GOT A WHITE HOUSE 
CHIEF OF ALL THE OTHER STAFFERS 
WHO SAYS NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE 
LAWS, THAT TO ME WAS AN 
EXTRAORDINARY WINDOW INTO THE 
LAWLESSNESS OF THE WHITE HOUSE 
STAFF. 
>> ABSOLUTELY.
AND, NICOLE, DID IT SURPRISE 
YOU?
IS IT ANY DIFFERENT FROM ALMOST 
ANYTHING WE HAVE SEEN FOR THE 
LAST THREE AND A HALF YEARS. 
>> RICHARD PAINTER WAS MY ETHICS
ADVISERS SO I COULDN'T GET A 
COKE PAID FOR BY A REPORTER. 
>> I KNOW YOU WOULDN'T HAVE 
TRIED. 
>> I GUESS MY QUESTION IS WHAT 
DO WE DO?
HOW DO YOU TAKE AND EXPLAIN THIS
TO THE COUNTRY THAT IT'S SO 
CORRUPT THAT THE PERSON IN 
CHARGE OF MAKING SURE THE ENTIRE
WHITE HOUSE STAFF FOLLOWS THE 
LAW, DOESN'T THINK THE LAW 
MATTERS. 
>> YOU KEEP ON TELLING THEM THAT
THIS IS ABNORMAL.
THIS IS NOT THE WAY THE 
CONSTITUTION WANTS IT TO BE.
NOT THE WAY OUR FOUNDERS WANT IT
TO BE.
IF WE DO NOT STOP THIS, WE ARE 
IN REAL DANGER OF LOSING OUR 
DEMOCRACY NEXT YEAR IF DONALD 
TRUMP IS RE-ELECTED AND GOES 
FURTHER. 
>> NBC NEWS PRESIDENTIAL 
HISTORIAN.
THAT'S SOBERING.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING 
WITH US, MICHAEL.
TO HAVE THAT WARNING, FRANKLY, 
ISSUED FROM OTHER POLITICIANS, 
LET ALONE FROM OBSERVERS IS ONE 
THING.
TO HAVE THAT FROM SOMEBODY WHO 
MAKES PRESIDENTIAL HISTORY THEIR
LIFE'S VOCATION, THAT'S VERY 
SOBERS.
NEVERTHELESS, WE GO TO THE WHITE
HOUSE WHERE THE PRESIDENT'S 
DAUGHTER IS GOING TO GIVE 
REMARKS THAT WILL LEAD INTO THE 
PRESIDENT'S ACCEPTANCE SPEECH 
THIS EVENING. 
>> LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE 
WELCOME IVANKA TRUMP.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>>> GOOD EVENING.
BEFORE I BEGIN, I WANT TO SEND A
SPECIAL MESSAGE TO EVERYONE WHO 
HAS BEEN AFFECTED BY HURRICANE 
LAURA.
OUR HEARTS ARE WITH YOU.
THE PRESIDENT WILL CONTINUE TO 
SUPPORT YOU EVERY STEP OF THE 
WAY.
AND JUST LIKE AMERICANS ALWAYS 
DO, THE NATION WILL COME 
TOGETHER TO HELP YOU REBUILD 
YOUR HOMES, BUSINESSES AND 
COMMUNITIES STRONGER AND MORE 
RESILIENT THAN EVER BEFORE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FUR YEARS AGO, I INTRODUCED 
TO YOU A BUILDER, AN 
ENTREPRENEUR, AN OUTSIDER AND 
THE PEOPLE'S NOMINEE FOR 
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
TONIGHT I STAND BEFORE YOU AS 
THE PROUD DAUGHTER OF THE 
PEOPLE'S PRESIDENT.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> HE IS OUR COMMANDER IN CHIEF,
CHAMPION OF THE AMERICAN WORKER,
DEFENDER OF COMMON SENSE AND OUR
VOICE FOR THE FORGOTTEN MEN AND 
WOMEN OF THIS COUNTRY.
HE IS OUR PRESIDENT AND MY 
FATHER, DONALD J. TRUMP.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THIS EVENING I WANT TO TELL 
YOU ABOUT THE LEADER I KNOW AND 
THE MOMENTS I WISH EVERY 
AMERICAN COULD SEE.
I WANT TO TELL YOU THE STORY OF 
A PRESIDENT WHO IS FIGHTING FOR 
YOU FROM DAWN TO MIDNIGHT WHEN 
THE CAMERAS HAVE LEFT, THE 
MICROPHONES ARE OFF AND THE 
DECISIONS REALLY COUNT.
WHEN JARED AND I MOVED WITH OUR 
THREE YOUNG CHILDREN TO 
WASHINGTON, WE DIDN'T EXACTLY 
KNOW WHAT WE WERE IN FOR, BUT 
OUR KIDS, OUR KIDS LOVED IT FROM
THE START.
MY SON JOSEPH PROMPTLY BUILT 
GRANDPA A LEGO REPLICA OF THE 
WHITE HOUSE.
THE PRESIDENT STILL DISPLAYS IT 
ON THE MANTLE IN THE OVAL OFFICE
RIGHT OVER THERE SO THAT HE CAN 
SHOW WORLD LEADERS JUST SO THEY 
KNOW HE HAS THE GREATEST 
GRANDCHILDREN ON EARTH.
I AGREE.
OVER THE LAST FOUR YEARS, WE 
HAVE LEARNED A LOT.
I HAVE SEEN IN WASHINGTON IT'S 
EASY FOR POLITICIANS TO SURVIVE 
IF THEY SILENCE THEIR 
CONVICTIONS AND SKIP THE HARD 
FIGHTS.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE SO MANY 
POLITICIANS ACTUALLY PREFER TO 
COMPLAIN ABOUT A PROBLEM RATHER 
THAN FIX IT.
I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE PEOPLE 
LEAVE MAJOR CHALLENGES UNSOLVED 
SO THEY COULD BLAME THE OTHER 
SIDE AND CAMPAIGN ON THE SAME 
ISSUE IN THE NEXT ELECTION.
BUT DONALD TRUMP DID NOT COME TO
WIN PRAISE.
DONALD TRUMP CAME TO WASHINGTON 
FOR ONE REASON AND ONE REASON 
ALONE, TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT 
AGAIN.
MY FATHER HAS STRONG 
CONVICTIONS.
HE KNOWS WHAT HE BELIEVES, AND 
HE SAYS WHAT HE THINKS.
WHETHER YOU AGREE WITH HIM OR 
NOT, YOU ALWAYS KNOW WHERE HE 
STANDS.
I RECOGNIZE THAT MY DAD'S 
COMMUNICATION STYLE IS NOT TO 
EVERYONE'S TASTE.
AND I KNOW THAT HIS TWEETS CAN 
FEEL A BIT UNFILTERED.
BUT THE RESULTS, THE RESULTS 
SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> HE IS SO UNAPOLOGETIC ABOUT 
HIS BELIEFS THAT HE HAS CAUSED 
ME AND COUNTLESS AMERICANS TO 
TAKE A HARD LOOK AT OUR OWN 
CONVICTIONS AND ASK OURSELVES 
WHAT DO WE STAND FOR.
WHAT KIND OF AMERICA DO WE WANT 
TO LEAVE FOR OUR CHILDREN?
I AM MORE CERTAIN THAN EVER 
BEFORE WE WANT A FUTURE WHERE 
OUR KIDS CAN BELIEVE IN AMERICAN
GREATNESS.
WE WANT A SOCIETY WHERE EVERY 
CHILD CAN LIVE IN A SAFE 
COMMUNITY AND GO TO A GREAT 
SCHOOL OF THEIR CHOICE.
WE WANT A CULTURE WHERE 
DIFFERENCES OF OPINION AND 
DEBATE ARE ENCOURAGED, NOT 
CANCELED, WHERE LAW ENFORCEMENT 
IS RESPECTED, WHERE OUR 
COUNTRY'S RICH DIVERSITY IS 
CELEBRATED AND WHERE PEOPLE OF 
ALL BACKGROUNDS, RACES, COLORS 
AND CREEDS HAVE THE CHANCE TO 
ACHIEVE THEIR GOD-GIVEN 
POTENTIAL.
THIS IS THE POTENTIAL MY FATHER 
IS WORKING TO BUILD EACH AND 
EVERY DAY.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> BUILDING, AFTER ALL, IS WHAT 
HE'S DONE HIS WHOLE LIFE.
HE HAS ADMIRED AND BEFRIENDED 
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS ON 
COUNTLESS JOB SITES.
BUT IT HAS BEEN A NEW AND 
PROFOUND EXPERIENCE FOR HIM AND 
FOR ME TO SEE THESE STOIC 
MACHINISTS AND STEEL WORKERS 
COME TO HIM WITH A TEAR IN THEIR
EYE AND THANK HIM FOR BEING THE 
ONLY PERSON WILLING TO GO TO THE
MATT FOR THEM, FOR THEIR JOBS, 
FOR THEIR FAMILIES AND FOR THEIR
FUTURES.
TO THE HARD WORKING MEN AND 
WOMEN ACROSS AMERICA AND HERE 
TONIGHT, YOU ARE THE REASON MY 
FATHER FIGHTS WITH ALL OF HIS 
HEART AND ALL OF HIS MIGHT.
YOU ARE THE REASON HE RAN FOR 
PRESIDENT IN THE FIRST PLACE, 
AND YOU ARE THE REASON HE IS 
GOING TO KEEP FIGHTING FOR FOUR 
MORE YEARS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FOUR MORE YEARS.
I REMEMBER ONE EVENING IN EARLY 
FEBRUARY OF 2018 WE WERE IN THE 
OVAL OFFICE WITH MY FATHER'S TOP
ECONOMIC ADVISERS, AND THE 
PRESIDENT WAS PUSHING TO KEEP 
THE PROMISE HE MADE TO 
RENEGOTIATE THE BAD TRADE DEALS 
THAT HAD GUTTED MILLIONS OF 
MIDDLE CLASS JOBS.
MOST OF HIS ADVISERS ARGUED THAT
THE ECONOMY WAS SO STRONG 
FOLLOWING OUR HISTORIC TAX AND 
REGULATORY CUTS, THAT IT DIDN'T 
MAKE SENSE TO RISK ROCKING THE 
BOAT.
AFTER THE MEETING AS I WALKED 
WITH MY FATHER BACK TOWARDS THE 
RESIDENCE HE SAID, YOU KNOW, THE
REASON THIS HAS NEVER BEEN DONE 
BEFORE IS BECAUSE OUR LEADERS 
HAVEN'T HAD THE GUTS.
WHEN THE ECONOMY IS GOOD, THEY 
SETTLE FOR GOOD AND WHEN THINGS 
ARE BAD THEY DON'T HAVE THE WILL
OR ABILITY SO THEY KICK THE CAN 
UNTIL IT'S SOMEONE ELSE'S 
PROBLEM.
HE WAS RIGHT.
IF MY FATHER DIDN'T TAKE ON 
THESE FIGHTS, NO ONE WOULD.
IN THE MONTHS THAT FOLLOWED, 
PRESIDENT TRUMP REFUSED TO 
SETTLE FOR A GOOD DEAL.
HE WANTED A GREAT DEAL.
AND ULTIMATELY, THAT IS EXACTLY 
WHAT WE GOT.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> I REMEMBER EACH TIME HE WAS 
UPDATED ON THE PROGRESS OF THE 
NEW TRADE DEAL WITH MEXICO AND 
CANADA.
HE WOULD SAY, DON'T LET DOWN 
THOSE DAIRY FARMERS I MET IN 
WISCONSIN.
I DON'T WANT THEM TO LIKE THIS 
DEAL.
I WANT THEM TO LOVE IT.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> TODAY IN THE MIDST OF THIS 
UNPRECEDENTED GLOBAL PANDEMIC, 
IT IS MORE CLEAR THAN EVER THAT 
OUR PRESIDENT WAS ABSOLUTELY 
CORRECT TO TAKE ON TRADE WHEN HE
DID AND BRING OUR JOBS, OUR 
FACTORIES AND OUR LIFE SAVING 
MEDICINES BACK TO THE USA.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AS OUR NATION ENDURES THIS 
GREAT TRIAL, I PRAY FOR THE 
FAMILIES WHO ARE MOURNING THE 
LOSS OF A LOVED ONE, FOR THOSE 
WHO ARE BATTLING COVID-19 AND 
FOR THE FIRST RESPONDERS AND THE
HEALTH CARE HEROES WHO REMAIN ON
THE FRONT LINE OF THIS FIGHT.
THE GRIEF, SORROW AND ANXIETY 
DURING THIS TIME IS FELT BY ALL.
I HAVE BEEN WITH MY FATHER AND I
HAVE SEEN THE PAIN IN HIS EYES 
WHEN HE RECEIVES UPDATES ON THE 
LIVES THAT HAVE BEEN STOLEN BY 
THIS.
I HAVE SEEN HIM MAKE THE MOST 
DIFFICULT DECISIONS OF HIS LIFE.
I SAT WITH HIM IN THE OVAL 
OFFICE AS HE STOPPED TRAVEL TO 
EUROPE.
I WATCHED HIM TAKE THE STRONGEST
AND MOST EXCLUSIVE ECONOMY IN A 
LIFETIME, THE LOWER UNEMPLOYMENT
IN A HALF CENTURY AND THE 
HIGHEST WAGE INCREASE FOR 
WORKING FAMILIES IN DECADES AND 
CLOSE IT DOWN TO SAVE AMERICAN 
LIVES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> IT IS WHY OUR PRESIDENT 
RAPIDLY MOBILIZED THE FULL FORCE
OF GOVERNMENT IN THE PRIVATE 
SECTOR TO PRODUCE VENTILATORS 
WITHIN WEEKS, TO BUILD THE MOST 
ROBUST TESTING SYSTEM IN THE 
WORLD AND TO DEVELOP SAFE AND 
EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS AND VERY, 
VERY SOON A VACCINE.
MY FATHER ISN'T DETERRED BY 
DEFEATIST THINKERS.
THE WORLD IMPOSSIBLE, WELL IT 
ONLY MOTIVATES HIM.
DONALD TRUMP REJECTS THE CYNICAL
NOTION THAT THIS COUNTRY'S GREAT
ACHIEVEMENTS ARE BEHIND US.
HE BELIEVES THAT NOTHING IS 
BEYOND OUR REACH AND THAT THE 
BEST IS YET TO COME.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> I HAVE SEEN ALL OF MY LIFE 
HOW MY DAD BELIEVES IN THE 
POTENTIAL OF EACH INDIVIDUAL.
EARLIER THIS EVENING, WE WERE 
ALL INSPIRED BY THE INCREDIBLE 
TESTIMONY OF ALICE JOHNSON, A 
GREAT GRANDMOTHER WHO WAS 
SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON FOR 
A FIRST-TIME NON-VIOLENT DRUG 
OFFENSE.
I WAS WITH MY FATHER WHEN HE 
DECIDED TO COMMUTE ALICE'S LIFE 
SENTENCE.
TOGETHER WE WATCHED ALICE LEAVE 
PRISON AFTER NEARLY 22 YEARS.
AS SHE RAN INTO THE ARMS OF HER 
FAMILY AND THEY CELEBRATED A 
JOYFUL REUNION, MY FATHER GOT 
VERY QUIET.
I COULD SEE THE EMOTION ON HIS 
FACE.
AFTER A LONG SILENCE HE LOOKED 
AT ME AND SAID, IMAGINE HOW MANY
PEOPLE THERE ARE JUST LIKE 
ALICE.
FROM THAT POINT ON, HE BECAME A 
VOICE FOR THOSE THAT HAD BEEN 
UNFAIRLY SILENCED IN OUR PRISON 
SYSTEM.
PRESIDENT TRUMP RECTIFIED THE 
1994 BIDEN CRIME BILL THAT 
DISPROPORTIONALLY HURT 
AFRICAN-AMERICANS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AGAINST ALL ODDS, HE BROUGHT 
TOGETHER REPUBLICANS AND 
DEMOCRATS AND PASSED THE MOST 
SIGNIFICANT CRIMINAL JUSTICE 
REFORM OF OUR GENERATION AND 
WE'RE JUST GETTING STARTED.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> MY FATHER DID NOT CAMPAIGN ON
THIS ISSUE.
HE TACKLED THIS INJUSTICE 
BECAUSE HE HAS A DEEP COMPASSION
FOR THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN TREATED
UNFAIRLY.
MORE THAN RHETORIC AND POLITICAL
PROSE, THE ABILITY TO ACHIEVE 
BIPARTISAN SUCCESS WILL HELP US 
HEAL OUR COUNTRY'S RACIAL 
INEQUITIES AND BRING US FORWARD 
TOGETHER.
PRESIDENT TRUMP IS ADVANCING THE
AMERICAN VALUES OF WORK AND 
FAMILY.
FOUR YEARS AGO IN CLEVELAND I 
SAID PRESIDENT TRUMP WOULD 
DELIVER FOR WORKING WOMEN.
LAST YEAR OVER 70% OF ALL NEW 
JOBS WERE SECURED BY WOMEN.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FOUR YEARS AGO, I TOLD YOU MY
FATHER WOULD FOCUS ON MAKING 
CHILD CARE AFFORDABLE AND 
ACCESSIBLE.
IN PRESIDENT TRUMP'S FIRST TERM,
WE SECURED THE LARGEST EVER 
INCREASE FOR CHILD CARE FUNDING,
GIVING MORE THAN 800,000 
LOW-WELCOME FAMILIES GREAT CHILD
CARE AT A COST THEY CAN AFFORD.
AS PART OF REPUBLICAN TAX CUTS, 
IN 2019 ALONE, OUR CHILD TAX 
CREDIT PUT OVER $2,000 INTO THE 
POCKETS OF 40 MILLION AMERICAN 
FAMILIES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS RECENTLY
INTRODUCED A PLAN TO INCREASE 
THE CHILD TAX CREDIT.
YET, WHEN I WAS FIGHTING LESS 
THAN THREE YEARS AGO AT THE 
PRESIDENT'S DIRECTION TO GET 
CONGRESS TO DOUBLE THE CHILD TAX
CREDIT NOT A SINGLE DEMOCRAT 
VOTED TO PASS THE LAW.
WE GOT IT DONE ANYWAY.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FOUR YEARS AGO I PROMISED 
THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP WOULD 
SUPPORT MOTHERS IN THE 
E
WORKFORCE.
IN HIS FIRST YEAR IN OFFICE HE 
SIGNED INTO LAW THE FIRST EVER 
NATIONAL PAID LEAVE TAX CREDIT.
TODAY EIGHT MILLION MORE 
AMERICANS HAVE ACCESS TO THIS 
BENEFIT.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FOUR YEARS AGO I SAID THAT 
AMERICANS NEEDED AN ECONOMY THAT
PERMITS PEOPLE TO RISE AGAIN.
DURING PRESIDENT TRUMP'S FIRST 
THREE YEARS IN OFFICE, 72% OF 
ALL NEW JOBS WENT TO AMERICANS 
WHO HAD BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE 
WORKFORCE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FOUR YEARS AGO, I TOLD YOU I 
WOULD FIGHT ALONGSIDE MY FATHER,
AND FOUR YEARS LATER, HERE I AM.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> MANY OF THE ISSUES MY FATHER 
HAS CHAMPIONED ARE NOT 
HISTORICALLY REPUBLICAN 
PRIORITIES.
YET, WHERE WASHINGTON CHOOSES 
SIDES, OUR PRESIDENT CHOOSES 
COMMON SENSE.
WHERE POLITICIANS CHOOSE PARTY, 
OUR PRESIDENT CHOOSES PEOPLE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> SINCE THE DAY HE TOOK THE 
OATH OF OFFICE, I HAVE WATCHED 
MY FATHER TAKE ON THE FAILED 
POLICIES OF THE PATH AND DO WHAT
NO LEADER HAS DONE BEFORE.
RECENTLY HE TOOK DRAMATIC ACTION
TO CUT THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION 
DRUGS, DESPITE FIELDING ANGRY 
CALLS FROM THE CEOs OF NEARLY 
EVERY MAJOR PHARMACEUTICAL 
COMPANY.
NOW WHEN WE SEE ATTACK ADS PAID 
FOR MY BIG PHARMA, MY DAD SMILES
AND SAYS TO ME, YOU KNOW, WE'RE 
DOING SOMETHING REALLY RIGHT IF 
THEY'RE HITTING US SO HARD.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THIS SPRING, OUR PRESIDENT 
SAW THAT AMERICAN CROPS WERE 
GOING TO WASTE BECAUSE FOOD 
SUPPLY CHAINS WERE DISRUPTED BY 
THE VIRUS.
HE DIRECTED SECRETARY PURDUE AND
ME TO FIND A WAY TO GET THIS 
NUTRITION FOOD, FRESH FOOD, 
VEGETABLES, MEAT AND DAIRY TO 
FAMILIES MOST IN NEED.
WE LAUNCHED THE FARMERS TO 
FAMILY FOOD BOX PROGRAM, WHICH 
HAS NOW DELIVERED OVER 100 
MILLION MEALS INTO THE HANDS OF 
AMERICAN FAMILIES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> TO PROTECT THE MOST 
VULNERABLE AMONG US, I HAVE 
WORKED ALONGSIDE THE PRESIDENT 
AS HE SIGNED INTO LAW NINE 
PIECES OF LEGISLATION TO COMBAT 
THE EVIL OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> I HAVE STOOD BY MY FATHER'S 
SIDE AS HE'S RECEIVED OUR FALLEN
HEROES, AND EACH TIME IT HAS 
STEELED HIS RESOLVE TO FINALLY 
STOP, FINALLY STOP THE ENDLESS 
FOREIGN WARS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> TO CHANGE THE PARADIGM IN THE
MIDDLE EAST, HE TOOK A FRESH 
APPROACH.
I HEARD FOREIGN LEADERS BEG HIM 
NOT TO MOVE THE AMERICAN EMBASSY
TO JERUSALEM.
YET, HE DELIVERED ON A PROMISE 
ALSO MADE AND UNFULFILLED BY 
PAST PRESIDENTS BECAUSE MY 
FATHER KNEW THAT IT WAS THE 
RIGHT THING TO DO.
DEFYING ALL EXPECTATIONS JUST 
WEEKS AGO HE RE-WROTE HISTORY 
AGAIN BY MAKING A PEACE 
AGREEMENT IN THE MIDDLE EAST, 
THE BIGGEST BREAKTHROUGH IN A 
QUARTER CENTURY.
>> FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A LONG 
TIME, WE HAVE A PRESIDENT WHO 
HAS CALLED OUT WASHINGTON'S 
HYPOCRISY, AND THEY HATE HIM FOR
IT.
DAD, PEOPLE ATTACK YOU FOR BEING
UNCONVENTIONAL, BUT I LOVE YOU 
FOR BEING REAL.
AND I RESPECT YOU FOR BEING 
EFFECTIVE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> OUR PRESIDENT REFUSES TO 
SURRENDER HIS BELIEFS TO SCORE 
POINT WITH THE BIG POLITICAL 
ELITE.
TO MY FATHER, YOU ARE THE ELITE.
YOU ARE THE ONLY PEOPLE HE CARES
ABOUT SCORING POINTS WITH.
IF THESE PROBLEMS WERE EASY TO 
SOLVE, PREVIOUS PRESIDENTS WOULD
HAVE DONE SO.
BUT YOU DON'T ACHIEVE DIFFERENT 
RESULTS BY DOING THINGS THE SAME
WAY.
WASHINGTON HAS NOT CHANGED 
DONALD TRUMP.
DONALD TRUMP HAS CHANGED 
WASHINGTON.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AMERICA DOESN'T NEED ANOTHER 
EMPTY VESSEL WHO WILL DO 
WHATEVER THE MEDIA ON THE FRINGE
OF HIS PARTY DEMANDS.
NOW MORE THAN EVER AMERICA NEEDS
FOUR MORE YEARS OF A WARRIOR IN 
THE WHITE HOUSE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> TONIGHT I COULD NOT BE MORE 
PROUD TO INTRODUCE MY FATHER, A 
MAN I KNOW WAS MADE FOR THIS 
MOMENT IN HISTORY.
MY FELLOW AMERICANS, OUR FIRST 
LADY AND THE 45th PRESIDENT OF 
THE UNITED STATES, DONALD J. 
TRUMP.
♪♪ AND I'M PROUD TO BE AMERICAN 
WHERE AT LEAST I KNOW I'M

>>> THE PRESIDENT AND THE FIRST 
LADY AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE BEEN REMARKING
THIS EVENING ON HOW UNUSUAL IT 
IS FOR A CAMPAIGN EVENT, A 
PARTISAN POLITICAL EVENT FOR A 
PARTICULAR CANDIDATE OR CAMPAIGN
TO BE USED -- TO USE THE WHITE 
HOUSE AS ITS BACKDROP, BUT 
THEY'RE GOING FOR IT TONIGHT IN 
EVERY POSSIBLE WAY.
SO WE ARE EXPECTING A LONG 
SPEECH FROM THE PRESIDENT 
TONIGHT AFTER WHAT WAS A LENGTHY
SPEECH IN ITS OWN RIGHT FROM THE
PRESIDENT'S ELDEST DAUGHTER 
IVANKA TRUMP.
THE VISUALS HERE ARE ALSO 
IMPORTANT.
THERE ARE MORE THAN 1,500 PRESS,
AS MANY AS 2,000 CHAIRS SET UP 
AT THE WHITE HOUSE.
ALMOST ALL OF THEM FULL, NONE OF
THEM SIX FEET APART AND THERE 
ARE VERY, VERY FEW MASKS IN 
EVIDENCE AT THIS EVENT.
IF YOU ARE AN AMERICAN WHO HAS 
MADE SACRIFICES AND CHANGED YOUR
LIFE SO AS TO AVOID POTENTIALLY 
BEING PART OF THE SPREAD OF 
CORONAVIRUS IN OUR COUNTRY, 
THESE IMAGES OF THIS PACKED 
EVENT ARE GONNA LAND IN A WAY 
THAT MAY PUT THAT IN IRONIC 
CONTEXT.
ALL RIGHT.
LET'S LISTEN IN.

[ APPLAUSE ]
>>> FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
FRIENDS, DELEGATES AND 
DISTINGUISHED GUESTS, PLEASE.
I STAND BEFORE YOU TONIGHT 
HONORED BY YOUR SUPPORT, PROUD 
OF THE EXTRAORDINARY PROGRESS WE
HAVE MADE TOGETHER OVER THE LAST
FOUR INCREDIBLE YEARS AND 
BRIMMING WITH CONFIDENCE IN THE 
BRIGHT FUTURE WE WILL BUILD FOR 
AMERICA OVER THE NEXT FOUR 
YEARS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE BEGIN THIS EVENING OUR 
THOUGHTS ARE WITH THE WONDERFUL 
PEOPLE WHO HAVE JUST COME 
THROUGH THE RATH OF HURRICANE 
LAURA.
WE ARE WORKING CLOSELY WITH 
STATE AND LOCAL OFFICIALS IN 
TEXAS, LOUISIANA, ARKANSAS, 
MISSISSIPPI, SPARING NO EFFORT 
TO SAVE LIVES WHILE THE 
HURRICANE WAS FIERCE, ONE OF THE
STRONGEST TO MAKE LAND FALL IN 
150 YEARS.
THE CASUALTIES AND DAMAGE WERE 
FAR LESS THAN THOUGHT POSSIBLE 
ONLY 24 HOURS AGO.
[ APPLAUSE ]
AND THIS IS DUE TO THE GREAT 
WORK OF FEMA, LAW ENFORCEMENT 
AND THE INDIVIDUAL STATES.
I WILL BE GOING THIS WEEKEND AND
CONGRATULATIONS.
THANK YOU FOR THAT GREAT JOB OUT
THERE.
WE REALLY APPRECIATE.
WE ARE ONE NATIONAL FAMILY, AND 
WE WILL ALWAYS PROTECT, LOVE AND
CARE FOR EACH OTHER.
HERE TONIGHT ARE THE PEOPLE WHO 
HAVE MADE BY JOURNEY POSSIBLE 
AND FILLED MY LIFE WITH SO MUCH 
JOY.
FOR HER INCREDIBLE SERVICE TO 
OUR NATION AND ITS CHILDREN, I 
WANT TO THANK OUR MAGNIFICENT 
FIRST LADY.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THANK YOU.
>> I ALSO WANT TO THANK MY 
AMAZING DAUGHTER IVANKA FOR THAT
INTRODUCTION AND TO ALL OF MY 
CHILDREN.
IVANKA, PLEASE STAND UP.
THANK YOU.
AND ALL OF MY CHILDREN AND 
GRANDCHILDREN, I LOVE YOU MORE 
THAN WORDS CAN EXPRESS.
I KNOW MY BROTHER ROBERT IS 
LOOKING DOWN ON US RIGHT NOW 
FROM HEAVEN.
HE WAS A GREAT BROTHER AND WAS 
VERY PROUD OF THE JOB WE ARE ALL
DOING.
THANK YOU.
WE LOVE YOU, ROBERT.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> LET US ALSO TAKE A MOMENT TO 
SHOW OUR PROFOUND APPRECIATION 
FOR A MAN WHO HAS ALWAYS FOUGHTR
VALUES, A MAN OF DEEP FAITH AND 
STEADFAST CONVICTION, OUR VICE 
PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AND MIKE IS JOINED BY HIS 
BELOVED WIFE, A TEACHER AND 
MILITARY MOM, KAREN PENCE.
THANK YOU, KAREN.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> MY FELLOW AMERICANS TONIGHT 
WITH A HEART FELT OF GRATITUDE 
AND OPTIMISM, I PROFOUNDLY 
ACCEPT THIS NOMINATION FOR 
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
>> USA!
USA!
>> THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, THE 
PARTY OF ABRAHAM LINKING GOES 
FORWARD UNITED, DETERMINED AND 
READY TO WELCOME MILLIONS OF 
DEMOCRATS, INDEPENDENTS AND 
ANYONE WHO BELIEVES IN THE 
GREATNESS OF AMERICA AND THE 
RIGHTEOUS HEART OF THE AMERICAN 
PEOPLE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
IN A NEW TERM AS PRESIDENT, WE 
WILL BUILD AGAIN THE GREATEST 
ECONOMY IN HISTORY, QUICKLY 
RETURN TO FULL EMPLOYMENT, 
SOARING INCOMING AND RECORD 
PROSPERITY.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE WILL DEFEND AMERICA 
AGAINST ALL THREATS AND PROTECT 
AMERICA FROM ALL DANGERS.
WE WILL LEAD AMERICA INTO NEW 
FRONTIERS OF AMBITION AND 
DISCOVERY AND WE WILL REACH FOR 
NEW HEIGHTS OF NATIONAL 
ACHIEVEMENT.
WE WILL REKINDLE NEW FAITH IN 
OUR VALUES, NEW PRIDE IN OUR 
HISTORY AND A NEW SPIRIT OF 
UNITY THAT CAN ONLY BE REALIZED 
THROUGH LOVE FOR OUR GREAT 
COUNTRY.
>> BECAUSE WE UNDERSTAND THAT 
AMERICA IS NOT A LAND CLOAKED IN
DARKNESS.
AMERICA IS THE TORCH THAT 
ENLIGHTENS THE ENTIRE WORLD.
[ APPLAUSE ]
GATHERS HERE AT OUR BEAUTIFUL 
AND MAJESTIC WHITE HOUSE KNOWN 
ALL OVER THE WORLD AS THE 
PEOPLE'S HOUSE, WE CANNOT HELP 
BUT MARVEL AT THE MIRACLE THAT 
IS OUR GREAT AMERICAN STORY.
THIS HAS BEEN THE HOME OF LARGER
THAN LIFE FIGURES LIKE TEDDY 
ROOSEVELT AND ANDREW JACKSON, 
WHO RALLIED AMERICANS TO BOLD 
VISIONS OF A BIGGER AND BRIGHTER
FUTURE.
WITHIN THESE WALLS LIVED 
TENACIOUS GENERALS LIKE 
PRESIDENT GRANT AND EISENHOWER 
WHO LED OUR SOLDIERS IN THE 
CAUSE OF FREEDOM.
FROM THESE GROUNDS, THOMAS 
JEFFERSON SENT LEWIS AND CLARK 
ON A DARING EXPEDITION TO CROSS 
A WILD AND UNCHARTERED CONTINENT
IN THE DEPTHS OF A BLOODY CIVIL 
WAR, PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN 
LOOKED OUT THESE VERY WINDOWS 
UPON A HALF COMPLETED WASHINGTON
MONUMENT AND ASKED GOD IN HIS 
PROVIDENCE TO SAVE OUR NATION.
TWO WEEKS AFTER PEARL HARBOR, 
FRANKLIN DELNOR ROOSEVELT 
WELCOMED WINSTON CHURCHILL.
AND JUST INSIDE THEY SET OUR 
PEOPLE ON A COURSE TO VICTORY IN
THE SECOND WORLD WAR.
IN RECENT MONTHS, OUR NATION AND
THE ENTIRE PLANET HAS BEEN 
STRUCK BY A NEW AND POWERFUL 
INVISIBLE ENEMY.
LIKE THOSE BRAVE AMERICANS 
BEFORE US, WE ARE MEETING THIS 
CHALLENGE.
WE ARE DELIVERING LIFE SAVING 
THERAPIES, AND WE'LL PRODUCE A 
VACCINE BEFORE THE END OF THE 
YEAR OR MAYBE EVEN SOONER.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE WILL DEFEAT THE VIRUS AND 
THE PANDEMIC AND EMERGE STRONGER
THAN EVER BEFORE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
WHAT UNITED GENERATIONS PAST WAS
AN UNSHAKABLE CONFIDENCE IN 
AMERICA'S DESTINY AND AN 
UNBREAKABLE FAITH IN THE 
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
THEY KNEW THAT OUR COUNTRY IS 
BLESSED BY GOD AND HAS A SPECIAL
PURPOSE IN THIS WORLD.
IT IS THAT CONVICTION THAT 
INSPIRED THE FORMATION OF OUR 
UNION, OUR WEST WARD EXPANSION, 
THE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY, THE 
SPACE PROGRAM AND THE OVERTHROW 
OF FACISM, TYRANNY AND 
COMMUNISM.
THIS TOWERING AMERICAN SPIRIT 
HAS PREVAILED OVER EVERY 
CHALLENGE AND LIFTED US TO THE 
SUMMIT OF HUMAN ENDEAVOR.
DESPITE ALL OF OUR GRATENESS AS 
A NATION, EVERYTHING WE HAVE 
ACHIEVED IS IN DANGER.
THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT 
ELECTION IN THE HISTORY OF OUR 
COUNTRY.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THANK YOU.
AT NO TIME BEFORE HAVE VOTERS 
FACED A CLEARER CHOICE BETWEEN 
TWO PARTIES, TWO VISIONS, TWO 
PHILOSOPHIES OR TWO AGENDAS.
THIS ELECTION WILL DECIDE 
WHETHER WE SAVE THE AMERICAN 
DREAM OR WHETHER WE ALLOW A 
SOCIALIST AGENDA TO DEMOLISH OUR
CHERISHED DESTINY.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> IT WILL DECIDE WHETHER WE 
RAPIDLY CREATE MILLIONS OF HIGH 
PAYING JOBS OR WHETHER WE CRUSH 
OUR INDUSTRIES AND SEND MILLIONS
OF THESE JOBS OVERSEAS AS HAS 
FOOLISHLY BEEN DONE FOR MANY 
DECADES.
YOUR VOTE WILL DECIDE WHETHER WE
PROTECT LAW-ABIDING AMERICANS OR
WHETHER WE GIVE FREE REIN TO 
VIOLENT AGITATORS AND CRIMINALS 
WHO THREATEN OUR CITIZENS.
AND THIS ELECTION WILL DECIDE 
WHETHER WE WILL DEFEND THE 
AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE OR WHETHER 
WE WILL ALLOW A RADICAL MOVEMENT
TO COMPLETELY DISMANTLE AND 
DESTROY IT.
THAT WON'T HAPPEN.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AT THE DEMOCRAT NATIONAL 
CONVENTION, JOE BIDEN AND HIS 
PARTY REPEATEDLY ASSAILED 
AMERICA AS A LAND OF RACIAL, 
ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL INJUSTICE.
SO TONIGHT I ASK YOU A SIMPLE 
QUESTION: HOW CAN THE DEMOCRAT 
PARTY ASK TO LEAD OUR COUNTRY 
WHEN IT SPENDS SO MUCH TIME 
TEARING DOWN OUR COUNTRY?
[ APPLAUSE ]
IN THE LEFT'S BACKWARDS VIEW, 
THEY DO NOT SEE AMERICA AS THE 
MOST FREE, JUST AND EXCEPTIONAL 
NATION ON EARTH.
INSTEAD, THEY SEE A WICKED 
NATION THAT MUST BE PUNISHED FOR
ITS SINS.
OUR OPPONENTS SAY THAT RE DEMGS 
FROM YOU CAN ONLY COME FROM 
GIVING POWER TO THEM.
THIS IS A TIRED ANTHEM SPOKEN BY
EVERY REGRESSIVE MOVEMENT 
THROUGHOUT HISTORY.
BUT IN THIS COUNTRY, WE DON'T 
LOOK TO CAREER POLITICIANS FOR 
SALVATION.
IN AMERICA WE DON'T TURN TO 
GOVERNMENT TO RESTORE OURSELVES.
WE PUT OUR FAITH IN ALMIGHTY 
GOD.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> JOE BIDEN IS NOT A SAVIOR OF 
AMERICA'S SOUL.
HE IS THE DESTROYER OF AMERICA'S
JOBS AND IF GIVEN THE CHANCE HE 
WILL BE THE DESTROYER OF 
AMERICAN GREATNESS.
FOR 47 YEARS, JOE BIDEN TOOK THE
DONATIONS OF BLUE COLLAR 
WORKERS, GAVE THEM HUGS AND EVEN
KISSES AND TOLD THEM HE FELT 
THEIR PAIN AND THEN HE FLEW BACK
TO WASHINGTON AND VOTED TO SHIP 
OUR JOBS TO CHINA AND MANY OTHER
DISTANT LANDS.
JOE BIDEN HAS SPENT HIS ENTIRE 
CAREER OUTSOURCING THEIR DREAMS 
AND THE DREAMS OF AMERICAN 
WORKERS, OFFSHORING THEIR JOBS, 
OPENING THEIR BORDERS AND 
SENDING THEIR SONS AND DAUGHTERS
TO FIGHT IN ENDLESS FOREIGN 
WARS, WARS THAT NEVER ENDED.
FOUR YEARS AGO, I RAN FOR 
PRESIDENT BECAUSE I COULD NOT 
WATCH THIS BETRAYAL OF OUR 
COUNTRY ANY LONGER.
I COULD NOT SIT BY AS CAREER 
POLITICIANS LET OTHER COUNTRIES 
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF US ON TRADE, 
BORDERS, FOREIGN POLICY AND 
NATIONAL DEFENSE.
OUR NATO PARTNERS, AS AN 
EXAMPLE, WERE VERY FAR BEHIND IN
THEIR DEFENSE PAYMENTS.
BUT AT MY STRONG URGING, THEY 
AGREED TO PAY $130 BILLION MORE 
A YEAR THE FIRST TIME IN OVER 20
YEARS THAT THEY UPPED THEIR 
PAYMENTS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AND THIS $130 BILLION WILL 
ULTIMATELY GO TO $400 BILLION A 
YEAR, AND SECRETARY GENERAL 
STALTONBERG WHO HEADS NATO WAS 
AMAZED AFTER WATCHING FOR SO 
MANY YEARS AND SAID PRESIDENT 
TRUMP DID WHAT NO ONE ELSE WAS 
ABLE TO DO.
THANK YOU.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> FROM THE MOMENT I LEFT MY 
FORMER LIFE BEHIND, AND IT WAS A
GOOD LIFE, I HAVE DONE NOTHING 
BUT FIGHT FOR YOU.
I DID WHAT OUR POLITICAL 
ESTABLISHMENT NEVER EXPECTED AND
COULD NEVER FORGIVE BREAKING THE
CARDINAL RULE OF WASHINGTON 
POLITICS, I KEPT MY PROMISE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> TOGETHER, WE HAVE ENDED THE 
RULE OF THE FAILED POLITICAL 
CLASS, AND THEY ARE DESPERATE TO
GET THEIR POWER BACK BY ANY 
MEANS NECESSARY.
YOU HAVE SEEN THAT.
THEY ARE ANGRY AT ME BECAUSE 
INSTEAD OF PUTTING THEM FIRST, I
VERY SIMPLY SAID AMERICA FIRST.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THANK YOU.
DAYS AFTER TAKING OFFICE, WE 
SHOCKED THE WASHINGTON 
ESTABLISHMENT AND WITHDREW FROM 
THE LAST ADMINISTRATION'S JOB 
KILLING TRANSPACIFIC 
PARTNERSHIP.
I THEN IMMEDIATELY IMPROVED THE 
KEYSTONE EXCEL AND DAKOTA ACCESS
PIPELINES.
ENDED THE UNFAIR AND VERY COSTLY
PARIS CLIMATE ACCORD AND SECURED
FOR THE FIRST TIME AMERICAN 
ENERGY INDEPENDENCE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE PASSED RECORD SETTING TAX 
AND REGULATION CUTS AT A RATE 
NOBODY HAD EVER SEEN BEFORE.
WITHIN THREE SHORT YEARS, WE 
BUILT THE STRONGEST ECONOMY IN 
THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
WASHINGTON INSIDERS ASKED ME NOT
TO STAND UP TO CHINA.
THEY PLEADED WITH ME TO LET 
CHINA CONTINUE STEALING OUR 
JOBS, RIPPING US OFF AND ROBBING
OUR COUNTRY BLIND.
BUT I KEPT MY WORD TO THE 
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
WE TOOK THE TOUGHEST, BOLDEST, 
STRONGEST AND HARDEST HITTING 
ACTION AGAINST CHINA IN AMERICAN
HISTORY BY FAR.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THEY SAID THAT IT WOULD BE 
IMPOSSIBLE TO TERMINATE AND 
REPLACE NAFTA.
BUT AGAIN THEY WERE WRONG.
EARLIER THIS YEAR I ENDED THE 
NAFTA NIGHTMARE AND SIGNED THE 
BRAND-NEW MEXICO/CANADA 
AGREEMENT INTO LAW.
AND RIGHT NOW AUTO COMPANIES AND
OTHERS ARE BUILDING THEIR PLANS 
AND FACTORIES IN AMERICA, NOT 
FIRING THEIR EMPLOYEES AND NOT 
DESERTING US FOR OTHER 
COUNTRIES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> IN PERHAPS NO AREA DID THE 
WASHINGTON SPECIAL INTERIST TRY 
HARDER TO STOP US THAN ON MY 
POLICY OF PRO AMERICAN 
IMMIGRATION.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> BUT I REFUSED TO BACK DOWN.
AND TODAY AMERICA'S BORDERS ARE 
MORE SECURE THAN EVER BEFORE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THANK YOU.
WE ENDED CATCH AND RELEASE, 
STOPPED ASYLUM FRAUD, TOOK DOWN 
HUMAN TRAFFICKERS WHO PREY ON 
WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND WE HAVE 
DEPORTED 20,000 GANG MEMBERS AND
500,000 CRIMINAL ALIENS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE HAVE ALREADY BUILT 300 
MILES OF BORDER WALL, AND WE ARE
ADDING TEN NEW MILES EVERY 
SINGLE WEEK.
THE WALL WILL SOON BE COMPLETE, 
AND IT IS WORKING BEYOND OUR 
WILDEST EXPECTATIONS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> WE ARE JOINED THIS EVENING BY
MEMBERS OF THE BORDER PATROL 
UNION REPRESENTING OUR COUNTRY'S
COURAGEOUS BORDER AGENTS.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING 
HERE.
THANK YOU BRAVE, BRAVE PEOPLE.
>> YOU SEE THIS COUNTRY LOVES 
OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT.
THEY DO.
THEY DO.
THEY REALLY DO.
LOVE AND RESPECT.
WHEN I LEARNED THAT THE 
TENNESSEE VALLEY AUTHORITY LAID 
OFF HUNDREDS OF AMERICAN WORKERS
AND FORCED THEM TO TRAIN THEIR 
LOWER PAID FOREIGN REPLACEMENT, 
I PROMPTLY REMOVED THE CHAIRMAN 
OF THE BOARD AND NOW THOSE 
TALENTED AMERICAN WORKERS HAVE 
BEEN REHIRED AND ARE BACK 
PROVIDING SUPPORT TO GEORGIA.
THEY HAVE THEIR OLD JOBS BACK.
AND SOME ARE HERE WITH US THIS 
EVENING.
PLEASE STAND.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH A LOT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
LAST MONTH I TOOK ON BIG PHARMA.
YOU THINK THAT'S EASY?
IT'S NOT.
AND SIGNED ORDERS THAT WILL 
MASSIVELY LOWER THE COST OF YOUR
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS AND GIVE 
CRITICALLY ILL PATIENTS ACCESS 
TO LIFE SAVING CURES.
WE PASSED THE DECADES LONG 
AWAITED RIGHT TO TRY, RIGHT TO 
TRY.
WE ALSO PASSED VA ACCOUNTABILITY
AND VA CHOICE.
OUR GREAT VETERANS, WE'RE TAKING
CARE OF OUR VETERANS.
91% APPROVAL RATING THIS MONTH, 
THE VA GIVEN BY OUR VETERANS.
FIRST TIME ANYTHING LIKE THAT 
HAS HAPPENED.
BY THE END OF MY FIRST TERM, WE 
WILL HAVE APPROVED MORE THAN 300
FEDERAL JUDGES, INCLUDING TWO 
GREAT NEW SUPREME COURT 
JUSTICES.
AND TO BRING PROSPERITY TO OUR 
FORGOTTEN INNER CITIES, WE 
WORKED HARD TO PASS HISTORIC 
CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM, PRISON 
REFORM, OPPORTUNITY ZONES AND 
LONG-TERM FUNDING OF 
HISTORICALLY BLACK COLLEGES AND 
UNIVERSITIES.
AND BEFORE THE CHINA VIRUS CAME 
IN, PRODUCED THE BEST 
UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBERS FOR 
AFRICAN-AMERICANS, HISPANIC 
AMERICANS AND ASIAN AMERICANS 
EVER RECORDED.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> AND I SAY VERY MODESTLY THAT 
I HAVE DONE MORE FOR THE 
AFRICAN-AMERICAN COMMUNITY THAN 
ANY PRESIDENT SINCE ABRAHAM 
LINCOLN, OUR FIRST REPUBLICAN 
PRESIDENT.
AND I HAVE DONE MORE IN THREE 
YEARS FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY 
THAN JOE BIDEN HAS DONE IN 47 
YEARS.
AND WHEN I'M RE-ELECTED, THE 
BEST IS YET TO COME.
>> FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
WHEN I TOOK OFFICE, THE MIDDLE 
EAST WAS IN TOTAL CHAOS.
ISIS WAS RAMPAGING.
IRAN WAS ON THE RISE, AND THE 
WAR IN AFGHANISTAN HAD NO
SIGHT.
I WITHDREW FROM THE TERRIBLE, 
ONE-SIDED IRAN NUCLEAR DEAL.
UNLIKE MANY PRESIDENTS BEFORE 
ME, I KEPT MY PROMISE, 
RECOGNIZED ISRAEL'S TRUE 
CAPITAL, AND MOVED OUR EMBASSY 
TO JERUSALEM.
BUT NOT ONLY DID WE TALK ABOUT 
IT AS A FUTURE SITE, WE GOT IT 
BUILT.
RATHER THAN SPENDING $1 BILLION 
ON A NEW BUILDING AS PLANNED, WE
TOOK AN ALREADY OWNED, EXISTING 
BUILDING IN A BETTER LOCATION.
REAL ESTATE DEAL, RIGHT?
AND OPENED IT AT A COST OF LESS 
THAN $500,000.
MANY THINGS LIKE THAT THAT 
GOVERNMENT IS DOING RIGHT NOW.
WE ALSO RECOGNIZED ISRAELI 
SOVEREIGNTY OVER THE GOLAN 
HEIGHTS.
AND THIS MONTH WE ACHIEVED THE 
FIRST MIDDLE EAST PEACE DEAL IN 
25 YEARS.
THANK YOU TO UAE.
THANK YOU TO ISRAEL.
IN ADDITION, WE OBLITERATED 100%
OF THE ISIS CALIPHATE AND KILLED
ITS FOUNDER AND LEADER, ABU BAKR
AL BAGHDADI.
THEN IN A SEPARATE OPERATION, WE
ELIMINATED THE WORLD'S NUMBER 
ONE TERRORIST BY FAR, QASSEM 
SOLEIMANI.
UNLIKE PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATIONS,
I HAVE KEPT AMERICA OUT OF NEW 
WARS, AND OUR TROOPS ARE COMING 
HOME.
WE HAVE SPENT NEARLY 
$2.5 TRILLION ON COMPLETELY 
REBUILDING OUR MILITARY, WHICH 
WAS VERY BADLY DEPLETED WHEN I 
TOOK OFFICE AS YOU KNOW.
THIS INCLUDES THREE SEPARATE PAY
RAISES FOR OUR GREAT WARRIORS.
WE ALSO LAUNCHED THE SPACE 
FORCE, THE FIRST NEW BRANCH OF 
THE UNITED STATES MILITARY SINCE
THE AIR FORCE WAS CREATED ALMOST
75 YEARS AGO.
WE HAVE SPENT THE LAST FOUR 
YEARS REVERSING THE DAMAGE JOE 
BIDEN INFLICTED OVER THE LAST 47
YEARS.
BIDEN'S RECORD IS A SHAMEFUL 
ROLL CALL OF THE MOST 
CATASTROPHIC BETRAYALS AND 
BLUNDERS IN OUR LIFETIME.
HE HAS SPENT HIS ENTIRE CAREER 
ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY.
BIDEN VOTED FOR THE NAFTA 
DISASTER, THE SINGLE WORST TRADE
DEAL EVER ENACTED.
HE SUPPORTED CHINA'S ENTRY INTO 
THE WORLD TRADE ORGANIZATION, 
ONE OF THE GREATEST ECONOMIC 
DISASTERS OF ALL TIME.
AFTER THOSE BIDEN CALAMITIES, 
THE UNITED STATES LOST ONE IN 
FOUR MANUFACTURING JOBS.
WE LAID OFF WORKERS IN MICHIGAN,
OHIO, NEW HAMPSHIRE, 
PENNSYLVANIA, AND MANY OTHER 
STATES.
THEY DIDN'T WANT TO HEAR BIDEN'S
HOLLOW WORDS OF EMPATHY.
THEY WANTED THEIR JOBS BACK.
AS VICE PRESIDENT, HE SUPPORTED 
THE TRANS-PACIFIC PARTNERSHIP, 
WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN A DEATH 
SENTENCE FOR THE U.S. AUTO 
INDUSTRY.
HE BACKED THE HORRENDOUS SOUTH 
KOREA TRADE DEAL, WHICH TOOK 
MANY JOBS FROM OUR COUNTRY AND 
WHICH I'VE REVERSED AND MADE A 
GREAT DEAL FOR OUR COUNTRY.
HE REPEATEDLY SUPPORTED MASS 
AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS.
HE VOTED FOR THE IRAQ WAR.
HE OPPOSED THE MISSION TO TAKE 
OUT OSAMA BIN LADEN.
HE OPPOSED KILLING SOLEIMANI.
HE OVERSAW THE RISE OF ISIS AND 
CHEERED THE RISE OF CHINA AS A 
POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT FOR AMERICA
AND THE WORLD.
SOME POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT.
THAT'S WHY CHINA SUPPORTS JOE 
BIDEN AND DESPERATELY WANTS HIM 
TO WIN, I CAN TELL YOU THAT UPON
VERY GOOD INFORMATION.
CHINA WOULD OWN OUR COUNTRY IF 
JOE BIDEN GOT ELECTED.
UNLIKE BIDEN, I WILL HOLD THEM 
FULLY ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE 
TRAGEDY THAT THEY CAUSED ALL 
OVER THE WORLD, THEY CAUSED.
IN RECENT MONTHS OUR NATION AND 
THE WORLD HAS BEEN HIT BY THE 
ONCE-IN-A-CENTURY PANDEMIC THAT 
CHINA ALLOWED TO SPREAD AROUND 
THE GLOBE.
THEY COULD HAVE STOPPED IT, BUT 
THEY ALLOWED IT TO COME OUT.
WE ARE GRATEFUL TO BE JOINED 
TONIGHT BY SEVERAL OF OUR 
INCREDIBLE NURSES AND FIRST 
RESPONDERS.
PLEASE STAND AND ACCEPT OUR 
PROFOUND THANKS AND GRATITUDE.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
MANY AMERICANS, INCLUDING ME, 
HAVE SADLY LOST FRIENDS AND 
CHERISHED LOVED ONES TO THIS 
HORRIBLE DISEASE.
AS ONE NATION, WE MOURN, WE 
GRIEVE, AND WE HOLD IN OUR 
HEARTS FOREVER THE MEMORIES OF 
ALL THOSE LIVES THAT HAVE BEEN 
SO TRAGICALLY TAKEN.
SO UNNECESSARY.
IN THEIR HONOR, WE WILL UNITE.
IN THEIR MEMORY, WE WILL 
OVERCOME.
AND WHEN THE CHINA VIRUS HIT, WE
LAUNCHED THE LARGEST NATIONAL 
MOBILIZATION SINCE WORLD WAR II,
INVOKING THE DEFENSE PRODUCTION 
ACT, WE PRODUCED THE WORLD'S 
LARGEST SUPPLY OF VENTILATORS.
NOT A SINGLE AMERICAN WHO HAS 
NEEDED A VENTILATOR HAS BEEN 
DENIED A VENTILATOR, WHICH IS A 
MIRACLE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
GOOD JOB HEADING THE TASK FORCE 
BY OUR GREAT VICE PRESIDENT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MIKE.
PLEASE.
PLEASE STAND UP.
PLEASE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
WE SHIPPED HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS 
OF MASKS, GLOVES, AND GOWNS TO 
OUR FRONTLINE HEALTH CARE 
WORKERS.
TO PROTECT OUR NATION'S SENIORS,
WE RUSHED SUPPLIES, TESTING 
KITS, AND PERSONAL -- TO NURSING
HOMES, WE GAVE EVERYTHING YOU 
CAN POSSIBLY GIVE, AND WE'RE 
STILL GIVING IT BECAUSE WE'RE 
TAKING CARE OF OUR SENIOR 
CITIZENS.
THE ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS 
BUILT FIELD HOSPITALS, AND THE 
NAVY DEPLOYED OUR GREAT HOSPITAL
SHIPS.
WE DEVELOPED FROM SCRATCH THE 
LARGEST AND MOST ADVANCED 
TESTING SYSTEM ANYWHERE IN THE 
WORLD.
AMERICA HAS TESTED MORE THAN 
EVERY COUNTRY IN EUROPE PUT 
TOGETHER AND MORE THAN EVERY 
NATION IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE
COMBINED.
THINK OF THAT.
WE HAVE CONDUCTED 40 MILLION 
MORE TESTS THAN THE NEXT CLOSEST
NATION, WHICH IS INDIA.
WE DEVELOPED A WIDE ARRAY OF 
EFFECTIVE TREATMENTS INCLUDING A
POWERFUL ANTIBODY TREATMENT 
KNOWN AS CONVALESCENT PLASMA.
YOU SAW THAT ON SUNDAY NIGHT 
WHEN WE ANNOUNCED IT, THAT WILL 
SAVE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF 
LIVES.
THANKS TO ADVANCES, WE HAVE 
PIONEERED, THE FATALITY RATE -- 
AND YOU LOOK AT IT, AND YOU LOOK
AT THE NUMBERS.
IT HAS BEEN REDUCED BY 80% SINCE
APRIL, 80%.
THE UNITED STATES HAS AMONG THE 
LOWEST CASE FATALITY RATES OF 
ANY MAJOR COUNTRY ANYWHERE IN 
THE WORLD.
THE EUROPEAN UNION'S CASE 
FATALITY RATE IS NEARLY THREE 
TIMES HIGHER THAN OURS, BUT YOU 
DON'T HEAR THAT.
THEY DON'T WRITE ABOUT THAT.
THEY DON'T WANT TO WRITE ABOUT 
THAT.
THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW 
THOSE THINGS.
ALL TOGETHER, THE NATIONS OF 
EUROPE HAVE EXPERIENCED A 30% 
GREATER INCREASE IN EXCESS 
MORTALITY THAN THE UNITED 
STATES.
THINK OF THAT.
WE ENACTED THE LARGEST PACKAGE 
OF FINANCIAL RELIEF IN AMERICAN 
HISTORY.
THANKS TO OUR PAYCHECK 
PROTECTION PROGRAM, WE HAVE 
SAVED OR SUPPORTED MORE THAN 50 
MILLION AMERICAN JOBS.
THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS THAT 
WE'RE ADVANCING SO RAPIDLY WITH 
OUR ECONOMY.
GREAT JOB.
AS A RESULT, WE HAVE SEEN THE 
SMALLEST ECONOMIC CONTRACTION OF
ANY MAJOR WESTERN NATION, AND WE
ARE RECOVERING AT A MUCH FASTER 
RATE THAN ANYBODY.
OVER THE PAST THREE MONTHS, WE 
HAVE GAINED OVER 9 MILLION JOBS,
AND THAT'S A RECORD IN THE 
HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY.
UNFORTUNATELY, FROM THE 
BEGINNING OUR OPPONENTS HAVE 
SHOWN THEMSELVES CAPABLE OF 
NOTHING BUT A PARTISAN ABILITY 
TO CRITICIZE.
WHEN I TOOK BOLD ACTION TO ISSUE
A TRAVEL BAN ON CHINA VERY EARLY
INDEED, JOE BIDEN CALLED IT 
HYSTERICAL AND XENOPHOBIC.
AND THEN I INTRODUCED A BAN ON 
EUROPE VERY EARLY AGAIN.
IF WE HAD LISTENED TO JOE, 
HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS MORE 
AMERICANS WOULD HAVE DIED.
INSTEAD OF FOLLOWING THE 
SCIENCE, JOE BIDEN WANTS TO 
INFLICT A PAINFUL SHUTDOWN ON 
THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.
HIS SHUTDOWN WOULD INFLICT 
UNTHINKABLE AND LASTING HARM ON 
OUR NATION'S CHILDREN, FAMILIES,
AND CITIZENS OF ALL BACKGROUNDS.
THE COST OF THE BIDEN SHUTDOWN 
WOULD BE MEASURED IN INCREASED 
DRUG OVERDOSES, DEPRESSION, 
ALCOHOL ADDICTION, SUICIDES, 
HEART ATTACKS, ECONOMIC 
DEVASTATION, JOB LOSS, AND MUCH 
MORE.
JOE BIDEN'S PLAN IS NOT A 
SOLUTION TO THE VIRUS BUT, 
RATHER, IT'S A SURRENDER TO THE 
VIRUS.
MY ADMINISTRATION HAS A VERY 
DIFFERENT APPROACH.
TO SAVE AS MANY LIVES AS 
POSSIBLE, WE ARE FOCUSING ON THE
SCIENCE, THE FACTS, AND THE 
DATA.
WE ARE AGGRESSIVELY SHELTERING 
THOSE AT HIGHEST RISK, 
ESPECIALLY THE ELDERLY, WHILE 
ALLOWING LOWER RISK AMERICANS TO
SAFELY RETURN TO WORK AND TO 
SCHOOL, AND WE WANT TO SEE SO 
MANY OF THOSE GREAT STATES BE 
OPEN BY DEMOCRATS.
WE WANT THEM TO BE OPEN.
THEY HAVE TO BE OPEN.
THEY HAVE TO GET BACK TO WORK.
THEY HAVE TO GET BACK TO WORK, 
AND THEY HAVE TO GET BACK TO 
SCHOOL.
MOST IMPORTANTLY, WE ARE 
MARSHALING AMERICAN'S SCIENTIFIC
GENIUS TO PRODUCE A VACCINE IN 
RECORD TIME.
UNDER OPERATION WARP SPEED, WE 
HAVE THREE DIFFERENT VACCINES IN
THE FINAL STAGE OF TRIALS RIGHT 
NOW, YEARS AHEAD OF WHAT HAS 
BEEN ACHIEVED BEFORE.
NOBODY THOUGHT IT COULD EVER BE 
DONE THIS FAST.
NORMALLY IT WOULD BE YEARS, AND 
WE DID IT IN A MATTER OF A FEW 
MONTHS.
WE'RE PRODUCING THEM IN ADVANCE 
SO THAT HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF 
DOSES WILL BE QUICKLY AVAILABLE.
WE WILL HAVE A SAFE AND 
EFFECTIVE VACCINE THIS YEAR, AND
TOGETHER WE WILL CRUSH THE 
VIRUS.
AT THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION, YOU 
BARELY HEARD A WORD ABOUT THEIR 
AGENDA, BUT THAT'S NOT BECAUSE 
THEY DON'T HAVE ONE.
IT'S BECAUSE THEIR AGENDA IS THE
MOST EXTREME SET OF PROPOSALS 
EVER PUT FORWARD BY A MAJOR 
PARTY NOMINEE.
JOE BIDEN MAY CLAIM HE IS AN 
ALLY OF THE LIGHT, BUT WHEN IT 
COMES TO HIS AGENDA, BIDEN WANTS
TO KEEP US COMPLETELY IN THE 
DARK.
HE DOESN'T HAVE A CLUE.
HE HAS PLEDGED A $4 TRILLION TAX
HIKE ON ALMOST ALL AMERICAN 
FAMILIES, WHICH WILL TOTALLY 
COLLAPSE OUR RAPIDLY IMPROVING 
ECONOMY AND ONCE AGAIN RECORD 
STOCK MARKETS THAT WE HAVE RIGHT
NOW WILL ALSO COLLAPSE.
THAT MEANS YOUR 401(K)s, THAT'S 
MEANS ALL OF THE STOCKS THAT YOU
HAVE.
ON THE OTHER HAND, JUST AS I DID
IN MY FIRST TERM, I WILL CUT 
TAXES EVEN FURTHER FOR 
HARDWORKING MOMS AND DADS.
I WILL NOT RAISE TAXES.
I WILL CUT THEM AND VERY 
SUBSTANTIALLY.
AND WE WILL ALSO PROVIDE TAX 
CREDITS TO BRING JOBS OUT OF 
CHINA BACK TO AMERICA, AND WE 
WILL IMPOSE TARIFFS ON ANY 
COMPANY THAT LEAVES AMERICA TO 
PRODUCE JOBS OVERSEAS.
WE WILL MAKE SURE OUR COMPANIES 
AND JOBS STAY IN OUR COUNTRY AS 
I'VE ALREADY BEEN DOING FOR 
QUITE SOME TIME IF YOU'VE 
NOTICED.
JOE BIDEN'S AGENDA IS "MADE IN 
CHINA."
MY AGENDA IS "MADE IN THE USA."
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
BIDEN HAS PROMISED TO ABOLISH 
THE PRODUCTION OF AMERICAN OIL, 
COAL, SHALE, AND NATURAL GAS, 
LAYING WASTE TO THE ECONOMIES OF
PENNSYLVANIA, OHIO, TEXAS, NORTH
DAKOTA, OKLAHOMA, COLORADO, AND 
NEW MEXICO, DESTROYING THOSE 
STATES, ABSOLUTELY DESTROYING 
THOSE STATES AND OTHERS.
MILLIONS OF JOBS WILL BE LOST, 
AND ENERGY PRICES WILL SOAR.
THESE SAME POLICIES LED TO 
CRIPPLING POWER OUTAGES IN 
CALIFORNIA JUST LAST WEEK.
EVERYBODY SAW THAT.
TREMENDOUS POWER OUTAGE.
NOBODY'S SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT, 
BUT WE SAW THAT LAST WEEK IN 
CALIFORNIA.
HOW CAN JOE BIDEN CLAIM TO BE AN
ALLY OF THE LIGHT WHEN HIS OWN 
PARTY CAN'T EVEN KEEP THE LIGHTS
ON?
JOE BIDEN'S CAMPAIGN HAS EVEN 
PUBLISHED A 110-PAGE POLICY 
PLATFORM.
YOU CAN'T GET AWAY FROM THIS.
CO-AUTHORED WITH FAR-LEFT 
SENATOR CRAZY BERNIE SANDERS.
THE BIDEN/BERNIE MANIFESTO CALLS
FOR SUSPENDING ALL REMOVALS OF 
ILLEGAL ALIENS, IMPLEMENTING 
NATIONWIDE CATCH AND RELEASE, 
AND PROVIDING ILLEGAL ALIENS 
WITH FREE TAXPAYER-FUNDED 
LAWYERS.
EVERYBODY GETS A LAWYER.
COME ON OVER TO OUR COUNTRY.
EVERYBODY HAS A LAWYER.
WE HAVE A LAWYER FOR YOU.
THAT'S WHAT WE NEED IS MORE 
LAWYERS.
JOE BIDEN RECENTLY RAISED HIS 
HAND ON THE DEBATE STAGE AND 
PROMISED HE WAS GOING TO GIVE IT
AWAY, YOUR HEALTH CARE DOLLARS 
TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, WHICH IS 
GOING TO BRING A MASSIVE NUMBER 
OF IMMIGRANTS INTO OUR COUNTRY.
MASSIVE NUMBERS WILL POUR INTO 
OUR COUNTRY IN ORDER TO GET ALL 
OF THE GOODIES THAT THEY WANT TO
GIVE, EDUCATION, HEALTH CARE, 
EVERYTHING.
HE ALSO SUPPORTS DEADLY 
SANCTUARY CITIES THAT PROTECT 
CRIMINAL ALIENS.
HE PROMISED TO END NATIONAL 
SECURITY TRAVEL BANS FROM 
JIHADIST NATIONS, AND HE PLEDGED
TO INCREASE REFUGEE ADMISSIONS 
BY 700%.
THIS IS IN THE MANIFESTO.
THE BIDEN PLAN WOULD ELIMINATE 
AMERICA'S BORDERS IN THE MIDDLE 
OF A GLOBAL PANDEMIC, AND HE'S 
EVEN TALKING ABOUT TAKING THE 
WALL DOWN.
HOW ABOUT THAT?
[ AUDIENCE BOOING ]
BIDEN ALSO VOWED TO OPPOSE 
SCHOOL CHOICE AND CLOSE ALL 
CHARTER SCHOOLS, RIPPING AWAY 
THE LADDER OF OPPORTUNITY FOR 
BLACK AND HISPANIC CHILDREN.
IN A SECOND TERM, I WILL EXPAND 
CHARTER SCHOOLS AND PROVIDE 
SCHOOL CHOICE TO EVERY FAMILY IN
AMERICA.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
AND WE WILL ALWAYS TREAT OUR 
TEACHERS WITH THE TREMENDOUS 
RESPECT THAT THEY DESERVE.
GREAT PEOPLE.
GREAT, GREAT PEOPLE.
JOE BIDEN CLAIMS HE HAS EMPATHY 
FOR THE VULNERABLE, YET THE 
PARTY HE LEADS SUPPORTS THE 
EXTREME LATE-TERM ABORTION OF 
DEFENSELESS BABIES RIGHT UP 
UNTIL THE MOMENT OF BIRTH.
DEMOCRAT LEADERS TALK ABOUT 
MORAL DECENCY, BUT THEY HAVE NO 
PROBLEM WITH STOPPING A BABY'S 
BEATING HEART IN THE NINTH MONTH
OF PREGNANCY.
DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS REFUSE TO 
PROTECT INNOCENT LIFE, AND THEN 
THEY LECTURE US ABOUT MORALITY 
AND SAVING AMERICA'S SOUL.
TONIGHT WE PROUDLY DECLARE THAT 
ALL CHILDREN, BORN AND UNBORN, 
HAVE A GOD-GIVEN RIGHT TO LIFE.
[ APPLAUSE ]
DURING THE DEMOCRAT CONVENTION, 
THE WORDS "UNDER GOD" WERE 
REMOVED FROM THE PLEDGE OF 
ALLEGIANCE, NOT ONCE BUT TWICE.
WE WILL NEVER DO THAT.
BUT THE FACT IS THIS IS WHERE 
THEY'RE COMING FROM.
LIKE IT OR NOT, THIS IS WHERE 
THEY'RE COMING FROM.
IF THE LEFT GAINS POWER, THEY 
WILL DEMOLISH THE SUBURBS, 
CONFISCATE YOUR GUNS, AND 
APPOINT JUSTICES WHO WILL WIPE 
AWAY YOUR SECOND AMENDMENT AND 
OTHER CONSTITUTIONAL FREEDOMS.
BIDEN IS A TROJAN HORSE FOR 
SOCIALISM.
IF JOE BIDEN DOESN'T HAVE THE 
STRENGTH TO STAND UP TO 
WILD-EYED MARXISTS LIKE BERNIE 
SANDERS AND HIS FELLOW 
RADICALS -- AND THERE ARE MANY.
THERE ARE MANY, MANY.
WE SEE THEM ALL THE TIME.
IT'S INCREDIBLE ACTUALLY.
THEN HOW IS HE EVER GOING TO 
STAND UP FOR YOU?
HE'S NOT.
THE MOST DANGEROUS ASPECT OF THE
BIDEN PLATFORM IS THE ATTACK ON 
PUBLIC SAFETY.
THE BIDEN/BERNIE MANIFESTO CALLS
FOR ABOLISHING CASH BAIL, 
IMMEDIATELY RELEASING 400,000 
CRIMINALS ONTO THE STREETS AND 
INTO YOUR NEIGHBORHOODS.
WHEN ASKED IF HE SUPPORTS 
CUTTING POLICE FUNDING, JOE 
BIDEN REPLIED, YES, ABSOLUTELY.
WHEN CONGRESSWOMAN ILHAN OMAR 
CALLED THE INDIANAPOLIS POLICE 
DEPARTMENT A CANCER THAT IS 
ROTTEN TO THE ROOT, BIDEN 
WOULDN'T REJECT HER -- HE 
PROUDLY DISPLAYED IT.
SHORTLY LATER ON HIS WEBSITE, HE
DISPLAYED IT IN BIG LETTERS.
MAKE NO MISTAKE.
IF YOU GIVE POWER TO JOE BIDEN, 
THE RADICAL LEFT WILL DEFUND 
POLICE DEPARTMENTS ALL ACROSS 
AMERICA.
THEY WILL PASS FEDERAL 
LEGISLATION TO REDUCE LAW 
ENFORCEMENT NATIONWIDE.
THEY WILL MAKE EVERY CITY LOOK 
LIKE DEMOCRAT-RUN PORTLAND, 
OREGON.
NO ONE WILL BE SAFE IN BIDEN'S 
AMERICA.
MY ADMINISTRATION WILL ALWAYS 
STAND WITH THE MEN AND WOMEN OF 
LAW ENFORCEMENT.
[ APPLAUSE ]
EVERY DAY POLICE OFFICERS RISK 
THEIR LIVES TO KEEP US SAFE, AND
EVERY YEAR MANY SACRIFICE THEIR 
LIVES IN THE LINE OF DUTY.
ONE OF THESE INCREDIBLE 
AMERICANS WAS DETECTIVE FAMILIA.
SHE WAS PART OF A TEAM OF 
AMERICAN HEROES CALLED THE NYPD 
OR NEW YORK'S FINEST, WHO I WAS 
VERY, VERY PROUD TO GET THEIR 
ENDORSEMENT JUST THE OTHER DAY.
GREAT PEOPLE.
GREAT, GREAT PEOPLE.
IF THEY WERE ALLOWED TO DO THEIR
JOB, YOU WOULD HAVE NO CRIME IN 
NEW YORK.
RUDY GIULIANI KNOWS THAT BETTER 
THAN ANYBODY.
THANK YOU, RUDY.
THREE YEARS AGO ON THE FOURTH OF
JULY WEEKEND, DETECTIVE FAMILIA 
WAS ON DUTY IN HER VEHICLE WHEN 
SHE WAS AMBUSHED JUST AFTER 
MIDNIGHT AND MURDERED BY A 
MONSTER WHO HATED HER PURELY FOR
WEARING THE BADGE.
DETECTIVE FAMILIA WAS A SINGLE 
MOM.
SHE RECENTLY ASKED FOR THE NIGHT
SHIFT SO SHE COULD SPEND MORE 
TIME WITH HER KIDS.
TWO YEARS AGO I STOOD IN FRONT 
OF THE U.S. CAPITOL ALONGSIDE 
THOSE BEAUTIFUL CHILDREN AND 
HELD THEIR GRANDMOTHER'S HAND AS
THEY MOURNED THEIR TERRIBLE 
LOSS, AND WE HONORED DETECTIVE 
FAMILIA'S EXTRAORDINARY LIFE.
IT WAS EXTRAORDINARY.
DETECTIVE FAMILIA'S THREE 
CHILDREN ARE WITH US THIS 
EVENING, GENESIS, PETER, 
DELILAH, WE ARE SO GRATEFUL TO 
HAVE YOU HERE TONIGHT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR COMING.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
[ APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
I PROMISE YOU THAT WE WILL 
TREASURE YOUR MOM IN OUR 
MEMORIES FOREVER.
WE MUST REMEMBER THAT THE 
OVERWHELMING MAJORITY OF POLICE 
OFFICERS IN THIS COUNTRY -- AND 
THAT'S THE OVERWHELMING 
MAJORITY -- ARE NOBLE, 
COURAGEOUS, AND HONORABLE.
WE HAVE TO GIVE LAW ENFORCEMENT,
OUR POLICE, BACK THEIR POWER.
THEY ARE AFRAID TO ACT.
THEY ARE AFRAID TO LOSE THEIR 
PENSION.
THEY ARE AFRAID TO LOSE THEIR 
JOBS.
AND BY BEING AFRAID, THEY ARE 
NOT ABLE TO DO THE JOB THAT THEY
SO DESPERATELY WANT TO DO FOR 
YOU.
AND THOSE WHO SUFFER MOST ARE 
THE GREAT PEOPLE WHO THEY 
PROTECT AND WHO THEY WANT TO 
PROTECT AT AN EVEN HIGHER LEVEL.
WHEN THERE IS POLICE MISCONDUCT,
THE JUSTICE SYSTEM MUST HOLD 
WRONG DOERS FULLY AND COMPLETELY
ACCOUNTABLE, AND IT WILL.
BUT WHEN WE CAN NEVER HAVE A 
SITUATION WHERE THINGS ARE GOING
ON AS THEY ARE TODAY.
WE MUST NEVER ALLOW MOB RULE.
WE CAN NEVER ALLOW MOB RULE.
IN THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE TERMS,
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY CONDEMNS 
THE RIOTING, LOOTING, ARSON, AND
VIOLENCE WE HAVE SEEN IN 
DEMOCRAT-RUN CITIES ALL, LIKE 
KENOSHA, INDIANAPOLIS, PORTLAND,
CHICAGO, AND NEW YORK, AND MANY 
OTHERS, DEMOCRAT-RUN.
THERE IS VIOLENCE AND DANGER IN 
THE STREETS OF MANY DEMOCRAT-RUN
CITIES THROUGHOUT AMERICA.
THIS PROBLEM COULD EASILY BE 
FIXED IF THEY WANTED TO.
JUST CALL.
WE'RE READY TO GO IN.
WE'LL TAKE CARE OF YOUR PROBLEM 
IN A MATTER OF HOURS.
JUST CALL.
WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE CALL.
IT'S TOO BAD WE HAVE TO, BUT WE 
HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE CALL.
WE MUST ALWAYS HAVE LAW AND 
ORDER.
ALL FEDERAL CRIMES ARE BEING 
INVESTIGATED, PROSECUTED, AND 
PUNISHED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT 
OF THE LAW.
WHEN THE ANARCHISTS STARTED 
RIPPING DOWN OUR STATUES AND 
MONUMENTS RIGHT OUTSIDE, I 
SIGNED AN ORDER IMMEDIATELY.
TEN YEARS IN PRISON, AND IT WAS 
A MIRACLE.
IT ALL STOPPED.
NO MORE STATUES.
THEY SAID, THAT'S JUST TOO LONG 
AS THEY LOOKED AT A STATUE.
I THINK WE'LL RIP IT DOWN.
THEN THEY SAID, TEN YEARS IN 
PRISON.
I THINK THAT'S TOO LONG.
LET'S GO HOME.
DURING THEIR CONVENTION, JOE 
BIDEN AND HIS SUPPORTERS 
REMAINED COMPLETELY SILENT ABOUT
THE RIOTERS AND CRIMINALS 
SPREADING MAYHEM IN DEMOCRAT-RUN
CITIES.
THEY NEVER EVEN MENTIONED IT 
DURING THEIR ENTIRE CONVENTION.
NEVER ONCE MENTIONED.
NOW THEY'RE STARTING TO MENTION 
IT BECAUSE THEIR POLL NUMBERS 
ARE GOING DOWN LIKE A ROCK IN 
WATER.
IT'S TOO LATE, JOE.
IN THE FACE OF LEFT-WING ANARCHY
AND MAYHEM IN MINNEAPOLIS, 
CHICAGO, AND OTHERS, JOE BIDEN'S
CAMPAIGN DID NOT CONDEMN IT.
THEY DONATED TO IT.
AT LEAST 13 MEMBERS OF JOE 
BIDEN'S CAMPAIGN STAFF DONATED 
TO A FUND TO BAIL OUT VANDALS, 
ARSONISTS, ANARCHISTS, LOOTERS, 
AND RIOTERS FROM JAIL.
HERE TONIGHT IS THE GRIEVING 
FAMILY OF RETIRED POLICE CAPTAIN
DAVID DORN, A 38-YEAR VETERAN OF
THE ST. LOUIS POLICE DEPARTMENT,
A GREAT MAN AND A HIGHLY 
RESPECTED MAN BY ALL.
IN JUNE, CAPTAIN DORN WAS SHOT 
AND KILLED AS HE TRIED TO 
PROTECT HIS STORE FROM RIOTERS 
AND LOOTERS, OR AS THE DEMOCRATS
WOULD CALL THEM, PEACEFUL 
PROTESTERS.
THEY CALL THEM PEACEFUL 
PROTESTERS.
WE'RE HONORED TO BE JOINED 
TONIGHT BY HIS WONDERFUL WIFE 
ANN AND BELOVED FAMILY MEMBERS 
BRIAN AND CAYLIN.
TO EACH OF YOU, WE WILL NEVER 
FORGET THE HEROIC LEGACY OF 
CAPTAIN DAVID DORN.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING 
HERE.
THANK YOU.
[ APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
GREAT MAN.
GREAT MAN.
AS LONG AS I AM PRESIDENT, WE 
WILL DEFEND THE ABSOLUTE RIGHT 
OF EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN TO 
LIVE IN SECURITY, DIGNITY, AND 
PEACE.
IF THE DEMOCRAT PARTY WANTS TO 
STAND WITH ANARCHISTS, 
AGITATORS, RIOTERS, LOOTERS, AND
FLAG BURNERS, THAT IS UP TO 
THEM.
BUT I, AS YOUR PRESIDENT, WILL 
NOT BE A PART OF IT.
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WILL REMAIN
THE VOICE OF THE PATRIOTIC 
HEROES WHO KEEP AMERICA SAFE AND
SALUTE THE AMERICAN FLAG.
[ APPLAUSE ]
LAST YEAR OVER 1,000 
AFRICAN-AMERICANS WERE MURDERED 
AS A RESULT OF VIOLENT CRIME IN 
JUST FOUR DEMOCRAT-RUN CITIES.
THE TOP TEN MOST DANGEROUS 
CITIES IN THE COUNTRY ARE RUN BY
DEMOCRATS AND HAVE BEEN FOR MANY
DECADES.
THOUSANDS MORE AFRICAN-AMERICANS
ARE VICTIM AND VICTIMS OF 
VIOLENT CRIME IN THESE 
COMMUNITIES.
JOE BIDEN AND THE LEFT IGNORE 
THESE AMERICAN VICTIMS.
I NEVER WILL.
IF THE RADICAL LEFT TAKES POWER,
THEY WILL APPLY THEIR DISASTROUS
POLICIES TO EVERY CITY, TOWN, 
AND SUBURB IN AMERICA.
JUST IMAGINE IF THE SO-CALLED 
PEACEFUL DEMONSTRATORS IN THE 
STREETS WERE IN CHARGE OF EVERY 
LEVER OF POWER IN THE U.S. 
GOVERNMENT.
JUST THINK OF THAT.
LIBERAL POLITICIANS CLAIM TO BE 
CONCERNED ABOUT THE STRENGTH OF 
AMERICAN INSTITUTIONS.
BUT WHO EXACTLY IS ATTACKING 
THEM?
WHO IS HIRING THE RADICAL 
PROFESSORS, JUDGES, AND 
PROSECUTORS?
WHO IS TRYING TO ABOLISH 
IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT AND 
ESTABLISH SPEECH CODES DESIGNED 
TO MUZZLE DISSENT?
IN EVERY CASE THE ATTACKS ON 
AMERICAN INSTITUTIONS ARE BEING 
WAGED BY RADICAL LEFT.
ALWAYS REMEMBER THEY ARE COMING 
AFTER ME BECAUSE I AM FIGHTING 
FOR YOU.
THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING.
AND IT'S BEEN GOING ON FROM 
BEFORE I EVEN GOT ELECTED.
[ APPLAUSE ]
AND REMEMBER THIS.
THEY SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN, AND 
THEY GOT CAUGHT.
LET'S SEE NOW WHAT HAPPENS.
WE MUST RECLAIM OUR INDEPENDENCE
FROM THE LEFT'S REPRESSIVE 
MANDATES.
AMERICANS ARE EXHAUSTED TRYING 
TO KEEP UP WITH THE LATEST LIST 
OF APPROVED WORDS AND PHRASES 
AND THE EVER MORE RESTRICTIVE 
POLITICAL DECREES.
MANY THINGS HAVE A DIFFERENT 
NAME NOW, AND THE RULES ARE 
CONSTANTLY CHANGING.
THE GOAL OF CANCEL CULTURE IS TO
MAKE DECENT AMERICANS LIVE IN 
FEAR OF BEING FIRED, EXPELLED, 
SHAMED, HUMILIATED, AND DRIVEN 
FROM SOCIETY AS WE KNOW IT.
THE FAR LEFT WANTS TO COERCE YOU
INTO SAYING WHAT YOU KNOW TO BE 
FALSE AND SCARE YOU OUT OF 
SAYING WHAT YOU KNOW TO BE TRUE.
IT'S VERY SAD.
BUT ON NOVEMBER 3rd, YOU CAN 
SEND THEM A VERY THUNDERING 
MESSAGE THEY WILL NEVER FORGET.
[ APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU.
>> FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
FOUR MORE YEARS!
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
JOE BIDEN IS WEAK.
HE TAKES HIS MARCHING ORDERS 
FROM LIBERAL HYPOCRITES WHO 
DRIVE THEIR CITIES INTO THE 
GROUND WHILE FLEEING FAR FROM 
THE SCENE OF THE WRECKAGE.
THESE SAME LIBERALS WANT TO 
ELIMINATE SCHOOL CHOICE WHILE 
THEY ENROLL THEIR CHILDREN IN 
THE FINEST PRIVATE SCHOOLS IN 
THE LAND.
THEY WANT TO OPEN OUR BORDERS 
WHILE LIVING IN WALLED-OFF 
COMPOUNDS AND COMMUNITIES IN THE
BEST NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE WORLD.
THEY WANT TO DEFUND THE POLICE 
WHILE THEY HAVE ARMED GUARDS FOR
THEMSELVES.
THIS NOVEMBER WE MUST TURN THE 
PAGE FOREVER ON THIS FAILED 
POLITICAL CLASS.
THE FACT IS I'M HERE.
WHAT'S THE NAME OF THAT 
BUILDING?
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
BUT I'LL SAY IT DIFFERENTLY.
THE FACT IS WE'RE HERE, AND 
THEY'RE NOT.
TO ME, ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
BUILDINGS ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD,
AND IT'S NOT A BUILDING.
IT'S A HOME AS FAR AS I'M 
CONCERNED.
IT'S NOT EVEN A HOUSE.
IT'S A HOME.
IT'S A WONDERFUL PLACE WITH AN 
INCREDIBLE HISTORY.
BUT IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU.
TOGETHER WE WILL WRITE THE NEXT 
CHAPTER OF THE GREAT AMERICAN 
STORY.
OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS, WE 
WILL MAKE AMERICA THE 
MANUFACTURING SUPERPOWER OF THE 
WORLD.
WE WILL EXPAND OPPORTUNITY 
ZONES.
THANK YOU, TIM SCOTT.
BRING HOME OUR MEDICAL SUPPLY 
CHAINS, AND WE WILL END OUR 
RESILIENCE FOR BAD THINGS.
WE WILL GO RIGHT AFTER CHINA.
WE WILL NOT RELY ON THEM ONE 
BIT.
WE'RE TAKING OUR BUSINESS OUT OF
CHINA.
WE ARE BRINGING IT HOME.
WE WANT OUR BUSINESS TO COME 
HOME.
WE WILL CONTINUE TO REDUCE TAXES
AND REGULATIONS AT LEVELS NOT 
SEEN BEFORE.
WE WILL CREATE 10 MILLION JOBS 
IN THE NEXT TEN MONTHS, AND IT 
WILL BE HIGHER THAN THAT.
WE WILL HIRE MORE POLICE, 
INCREASE PENALTIES FOR ASSAULTS 
ON LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND SURGE 
FEDERAL PROSECUTORS INTO 
HIGH-CRIME COMMUNITIES.
WE WILL BAN DEADLY SANCTUARY 
CITIES AND ENSURE THAT FEDERAL 
HEALTH CARE IS PROTECTED FOR 
AMERICAN CITIZENS, NOT FOR 
ILLEGAL ALIENS.
WE WILL HAVE STRONG BORDERS, AND
I'VE SAID FOR YEARS, WITHOUT 
BORDERS, WE DON'T HAVE A 
COUNTRY.
DON'T HAVE A COUNTRY.
STRIKE DOWN TERRORISTS WHO 
THREATEN OUR PEOPLE AND KEEP 
AMERICA OUT OF ENDLESS AND 
COSTLY FOREIGN WARS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
WE WILL APPOINT PROSECUTORS, 
JUDGES, JUSTICES WHO BELIEVE IN 
ENFORCING THE LAW, NOT ENFORCING
THEIR OWN POLITICAL AGENDA, 
WHICH IS ILLEGAL.
WE WILL ENSURE EQUAL JUSTICE FOR
CITIZENS OF EVERY RACE, 
RELIGION, COLOR AND CREED.
WE WILL UPHOLD YOUR RELIGIOUS 
LIBERTY AND DEFEND YOUR SECOND 
AMENDMENT RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR
ARMS.
[ APPLAUSE ]
AND IF WE DON'T WIN, YOUR SECOND
AMENDMENT DOESN'T HAVE A CHANCE.
I CAN TELL YOU THAT.
I HAVE TOTALLY PROTECTED IT.
WE WILL PROTECT MEDICARE AND 
SOCIAL SECURITY.
WE WILL ALWAYS AND VERY STRONGLY
PROTECT PATIENTS WITH 
PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS, AND 
THAT IS A PLEDGE FROM THE ENTIRE
REPUBLICAN PARTY.
THANK YOU, KEVIN.
WE WILL END SURPRISE MEDICAL 
BILLING, REQUIRE PRICE 
TRANSPARENCY, AND FURTHER REDUCE
THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS 
AND HEALTH INSURANCE PREMIUMS.
THEY'RE COMING WAY DOWN.
WE WILL GREATLY EXPAND ENERGY 
DEVELOPMENT, CONTINUING TO 
REMAIN THE NUMBER ONE IN THE 
WORLD AND KEEP AMERICA ENERGY 
INDEPENDENT.
AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT STILL 
DRIVE A CAR, LOOK HOW LOW YOUR 
GASOLINE BILL IS.
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THAT IN A LONG 
TIME.
WE WILL WIN THE RACE TO 5G AND 
BUILD THE WORLD'S BEST CYBER AND
MISSILE DEFENSE, ALREADY UNDER 
CONSTRUCTION.
WE WILL FULLY RESTORE PATRIOTIC 
EDUCATION TO OUR SCHOOLS AND 
ALWAYS PROTECT -- WE WILL 
ALWAYS, ALWAYS PROTECT FREE 
SPEECH ON COLLEGE CAMPUSES.
[ APPLAUSE ]
AND WE PUT A VERY BIG PENALTY 
IN.
THEY DO ANYTHING HAVING TO DO 
WITH YOUR FREE SPEECH, COLLEGES 
HAVE TO PAY A TREMENDOUS, 
TREMENDOUS FINANCIAL PENALTY.
AND, AGAIN, IT'S AMAZING HOW 
OPEN THEY'VE BEEN LATELY.
WE WILL LAUNCH A NEW AGE OF 
AMERICAN AMBITION IN SPACE.
AMERICA WILL LAND THE FIRST 
WOMAN ON THE MOON, AND THE 
UNITED STATES WILL BE THE FIRST 
NATION TO PLANT ITS BEAUTIFUL 
FLAG ON MARS.
THIS IS THE UNIFYING NATIONAL 
AGENDA THAT WILL BRING OUR 
COUNTRY TOGETHER.
SO TONIGHT I SAY TO ALL 
AMERICANS THIS IS THE MOST 
IMPORTANT ELECTION IN THE 
HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY.
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN SUCH A 
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TWO PARTIES 
OR TWO INDIVIDUALS IN IDEOLOGY, 
PHILOSOPHY, OR VISION THAN THERE
IS RIGHT NOW.
OUR OPPONENTS BELIEVE THAT 
AMERICA IS A DEPRAVED NATION.
WE WANT OUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS 
TO KNOW THE TRUTH.
AMERICA IS THE GREATEST AND MOST
EXCEPTIONAL NATION IN THE 
HISTORY OF THE WORLD.
[ APPLAUSE ]
OUR COUNTRY WASN'T BUILT BY 
CANCEL CULTURE, SPEECH CODES, 
AND SOUL-CRUSHING CONFORMITY.
WE ARE NOT A NATION OF TIMID 
SPIRITS.
WE ARE A NATION OF FIERCE, 
PROUD, AND INDEPENDENT AMERICAN 
PATRIOTS.
WE'RE A NATION OF PILGRIMS, 
PIONEERS, ADVENTURERS, 
EXPLORERS, AND TRAIL BLAZERS WHO
REFUSE TO BE TIED DOWN, HELD 
BACK, OR IN ANY WAY REINED IN.
AMERICANS HAVE STEEL IN THEIR 
SPINES, GRIT IN THEIR SOULS, AND
FIRE IN THEIR HEARTS.
THERE IS NO ONE LIKE US ON 
EARTH.
I WANT EVERY CHILD IN AMERICA TO
KNOW THAT YOU ARE PART OF THE 
MOST EXCITING AND INCREDIBLE 
ADVENTURE IN HUMAN HISTORY.
NO MATTER WHERE YOUR FAMILY 
COMES FROM, NO MATTER YOUR 
BACKGROUND IN AMERICA, ANYONE 
CAN RISE WITH HARD WORK, 
DEVOTION AND DRIVE.
YOU CAN REACH ANY GOAL AND 
ACHIEVE EVERY AMBITION.
OUR AMERICAN ANCESTORS SAILED 
ACROSS THE PERILOUS OCEAN TO 
BUILD A NEW LIFE ON A NEW 
CONTINENT.
THEY BRAVED THE FREEZING 
WINTERS, CROSSED THE RAGING 
RIVERS, SCALED THE ROCKY PEAKS, 
TREKKED THE DANGEROUS FORESTS, 
AND WORKED FROM DAWN TILL DUSK.
THESE PIONEERS DIDN'T HAVE 
MONEY.
THEY DIDN'T HAVE FAME, BUT THEY 
HAD EACH OTHER.
THEY LOVED THEIR FAMILIES.
THEY LOVED THEIR COUNTRY.
AND THEY LOVED THEIR GOD.
WHEN OPPORTUNITY BECKONED, THEY 
PICKED UP THEIR BIBLES, PACKED 
UP THEIR BELONGINGS, CLIMBED 
INTO THEIR COVERED WAGONS, AND 
SET OUT WEST FOR THE NEXT 
ADVENTURE.
RANCHERS AND MINERS, COWBOYS AND
SHERIFFS, FARMERS AND SETTLERS, 
THEY PRESSED ON PAST THE 
MISSISSIPPI TO STAKE A CLAIM IN 
THE WILD FRONTIER.
LEGENDS WERE BORN.
WYATT EARP, ANNIE OAKLEY, DAVY 
CROCKETT, AND BUFFALO BILL.
AMERICANS BUILT THEIR BEAUTIFUL 
HOMESTEADS ON THE OPEN RANGE.
SOON THEY HAD CHURCHES AND 
COMMUNITIES, THEN TOWNS, AND 
WITH TIME, GREAT CENTERS OF 
INDUSTRY AND COMMERCE.
THAT IS WHO THEY WERE.
AMERICANS BUILD THEIR FUTURE.
WE DON'T TEAR DOWN OUR PAST.
WE ARE THE NATION -- 
[ APPLAUSE ]
-- THAT WON A REVOLUTION, 
TOPPLED TYRANNY AND FASCISM, AND
DELIVERED MILLIONS INTO FREEDOM.
WE LAID DOWN THE RAILROADS, 
BUILT THE GREAT SHIPS, RAISED UP
THE SKYSCRAPERS, REVOLUTIONIZED 
INDUSTRY, AND SPARKED A NEW AGE 
OF SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
WE SET THE TRENDS IN ART AND 
MUSIC, RADIO AND FILM, SPORT AND
LITERATURE.
AND WE DID IT ALL WITH STYLE AND
CONFIDENCE AND FLAIR BECAUSE 
THAT IS WHO WE ARE.
WHENEVER OUR WAY OF LIFE WAS 
THREATENED, OUR HEROES ANSWERED 
THE CALL FROM YORKTOWN TO 
GETTYSBURG, FROM NORMANDY TO IWO
JIMA, AMERICAN PATRIOTS RACED 
INTO CANNON BLASTS, BULLETS, AND
BAYONETS TO RESCUE AMERICAN 
LIBERTY.
THEY HAD NO FEAR, BUT AMERICA 
DIDN'T STOP THERE.
WE LOOKED INTO THE SKY AND KEPT 
PRESSING ONWARD.
WE BUILT A 6 MILLION-POUND 
ROCKET AND LAUNCHED IT THOUSANDS
OF MILES INTO SPACE.
WE DID IT SO THAT TWO BRAVE 
PATRIOTS COULD STAND TALL AND 
SALUTE OUR WONDROUS AMERICAN 
FLAG PLANTED ON THE FACE OF THE 
MOON.
FOR AMERICA, NOTHING IS 
IMPOSSIBLE.
OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS, WE 
WILL PROVE WORTHY OF THIS 
MAGNIFICENT LEGACY.
WE WILL REACH STUNNING NEW 
HEIGHTS, AND WE WILL SHOW THAT 
THE WORLD, FOR AMERICA, THERE IS
A DREAM.
AND IT IS NOT BEYOND YOUR REACH.
TOGETHER WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE.
TOGETHER WE ARE UNBEATABLE 
BECAUSE TOGETHER WE ARE THE 
PROUD CITIZENS OF THE UNITED 
STATES OF AMERICA.
[ APPLAUSE ]
AND ON NOVEMBER 3rd, WE WILL 
MAKE AMERICA SAFER.
WE WILL MAKE AMERICA STRONGER.
WE WILL MAKE AMERICA PROUDER.
AND WE WILL MAKE AMERICA GREATER
THAN EVER BEFORE.
I AM VERY, VERY PROUD TO BE THE 
NOMINEE OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.
I LOVE YOU ALL.
GOD BLESS YOU AND GOD BLESS 
AMERICA.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
[ APPLAUSE ]
>> THERE YOU HAVE IT.
AS THE TELEPROMPTER SCREENS COME
DOWN, BRIAN WILLIAMS HERE WITH 
YOU.
GOOD EVENING ONCE AGAIN.
AS WE WAT
