America First - Nicholas J. Fuentes - Republican National Convention Day 3

00:00:29.000 Let's do it.

00:02:24.000 I don't know.

00:03:10.000 Sorry to keep you waiting, complicated business.

00:03:24.000 The more that a broken system tells you that you're wrong, the more certain you should be that you must keep pushing ahead.

00:03:34.000 Because it's the outsiders who change the world, and who make a real and lasting difference.

00:03:41.000 Nothing worth doing ever came easy.

00:03:45.000 Treat the word impossible as nothing more than motivation.

00:03:52.000 The future belongs to the people who follow their heart no matter what the critics say.

00:03:58.000 We must always remember that we share one home and one glorious destiny.

00:04:06.000 We all bleed the same red blood of patriots.

00:04:11.000 We all salute the same great American flag.

00:04:15.000 Our best days are yet to come.

00:05:07.000 People.

00:09:38.000 But as soon as people start playing games, I stop.

00:09:41.000 I stop playing games.

00:09:43.000 And at any moment...

00:10:13.000 Not my words, not my rules.

00:10:16.000 I just endorse them, alright?

00:10:59.000 Everybody, warming up.

00:11:01.000 Everybody dare to evolve.

00:11:29.000 We're good.

00:12:05.000 This is from your biggest Protestant fan, may you one day see the light.

00:12:19.000 Well, hey, thanks, love you too, but sorry, I believe in a religion that makes sense, so... Napoleon, Alexander the Great, Donald Trump were all cut from the same cloth, and that cloth is very, very large.

00:12:33.000 It's not too big, is it?

00:12:37.000 Okay.

00:12:37.000 For yourself.

00:12:38.000 It's wrong, isn't it?

00:12:40.000 It feels so right.

00:12:42.000 And it's a deal?

00:12:43.000 I put together some really impressive deals.

00:13:42.000 Thank you very much.

00:13:46.000 I'm done with it.

00:14:30.000 Trump's got a new day!

00:14:31.000 Trump's got a new deal!

00:15:03.000 My new game is Trump the game.

00:15:07.000 Trump the game.

00:15:09.000 This sounds like political presidential.

00:15:13.000 You said, though, that if you did run for president, you'd believe you'd win.

00:15:18.000 I would like that.

00:15:20.000 I would say that I would have a hell of a chance of winning.

00:15:25.000 I wouldn't go on to lose.

00:15:27.000 I've never gone on to lose in my life.

00:15:30.000 I don't know how your audience feels, but I think people are tired of seeing the United States ripped off.

00:15:36.000 That's the guy on the far right.

00:15:39.000 Thank you.

00:15:40.000 Thank you.

00:16:54.000 We can't go back to the past.

00:16:55.000 That's what people always say, isn't it?

00:16:57.000 They say, can we really go back?

00:16:59.000 And the answer is, whether you're conservative or liberal, right wing or left wing, the answer is no.

00:17:05.000 We're never going back.

00:17:07.000 It's done.

00:17:07.000 It's gone.

00:17:08.000 All of that is gone.

00:17:09.000 But I would call myself something like a Christian futurist instead.

00:17:15.000 Because Jesus Christ was our past before any of us were born or conceived.

00:17:20.000 Jesus Christ is our present now, and Jesus Christ is our future after we die on earth.

00:17:33.000 We want this century to be the most Christian century in the history of planet Earth. 0.99

00:17:40.000 We love everybody.

00:17:42.000 And we want people that can learn, really, more than anybody.

00:17:46.000 But this country can no longer be held hostage by a small minority that doesn't believe in God.

00:17:56.000 The mission of our movement is to make this country a Christian country.

00:18:00.000 The mission is to create a Christian future in our time.

00:18:05.000 The only way we're going to do it is not by infiltrating, not by subverting, not by lying, which is what a lot of people do.

00:18:14.000 The only way that we're going to make this happen is with the fullness of a real Christian. 0.88

00:18:19.000 That's the only way.

00:18:21.000 We have got to be willing to die for Jesus Christ.

00:18:26.000 We have to want it more than they do, because if there are thousands and millions and tens of millions and hundreds of millions of Christians ready to meet their final destiny, then nothing can stop us, and nothing will. 0.95

00:18:55.000 We've been put on notice. 0.99

00:18:55.000 If you fuck around with us, if you do something bad to us, we are going to do things to you that have never been done before. 0.99

00:19:03.000 Don't sit yet. 1.00

00:19:04.000 Get it like this.

00:19:32.000 Socialists, globalists, Marxists, communists who are attacking our civilization have no idea of the sleeping giant they have awoken.

00:19:44.000 They cannot even begin to imagine the brave and righteous spirit they've unleashed in men and women.

00:19:52.000 But they're going to find out the hard way.

00:19:54.000 They will find out like never before.

00:19:58.000 This nation belongs

00:20:00.000 Thank you.

00:20:16.000 It was patriots like you that built this country, and it's patriots like you that are going to save our country.

00:20:25.000 To all of those who think that they can coerce and subjugate the citizens of this land, hear these words.

00:20:36.000 For me tonight, the people of America will not surrender our borders.

00:20:41.000 We will not surrender our culture.

00:20:44.000 We will not surrender our faith.

00:20:47.000 We will not surrender our values.

00:20:50.000 We will not surrender our history.

00:20:53.000 We will not surrender our liberty.

00:20:55.000 And above all, we will not surrender our children.

00:21:00.000 We are done with their distorted visions for America.

00:21:04.000 It's time to start talking about greatness for our country again.

00:21:09.000 We want our country to be great again.

00:21:12.000 We want our country to be respected.

00:21:27.000 The time for action has come.

00:21:31.000 As long as we are led by politicians who will not put America first, then we can be assured that other nations will not treat America with respect, the respect that we deserve.

00:22:14.000 Years from now, some of them may look back and ask themselves whether they've made the right choice, whether they've made the most of the opportunities they've been given.

00:22:25.000 Together, we have the same mission.

00:22:29.000 Over the course of your life, you will find that things are not always fair.

00:22:34.000 You will find that things happen to you that you do not deserve and that are not always warranted.

00:22:43.000 But you have to put your head down and fight, fight, fight.

00:22:50.000 Never, ever, ever give up.

00:22:53.000 Don't give in, don't back down, and never stop doing what you know is right.

00:22:59.000 Nothing worth doing ever, ever, ever came easy.

00:23:05.000 And the more righteous your fight, the more opposition that you will face.

00:23:11.000 In your hearts are inscribed the values of service, sacrifice, and devotion.

00:23:17.000 Now you must go forth into the world and turn your hopes and dreams into action.

00:23:24.000 America has always been the land of dreams because America is a nation of true believers.

00:23:32.000 When the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth,

00:23:36.000 They pray.

00:23:37.000 When the founders wrote the Declaration of Independence, they invoked our creator four times.

00:23:45.000 Because in America, we don't worship government.

00:23:48.000 We worship God.

00:23:50.000 It is why our currency proudly declares, in God we trust.

00:23:56.000 And it's why we proudly proclaim that we are one nation under God.

00:24:02.000 The story of America is the story of an adventure that began with deep faith, big dreams, and humble beginnings.

00:24:16.000 The next generation of American leaders, never, ever give up.

00:24:21.000 There'll be times in your life you'll want to quit.

00:24:27.000 Never quit.

00:24:29.000 Never stop fighting for what you believe in and for the people who care about you.

00:24:34.000 Carry yourself with dignity and pride.

00:24:37.000 Demand the best from yourself.

00:24:41.000 The more people tell you it's not possible,

00:24:45.000 That it can't be done the more you should be absolutely determined to prove them wrong.

00:24:52.000 Treat the word impossible as nothing more than motivation.

00:25:02.000 Relish the opportunity to be an outsider the more that a broken system tells you that you're wrong.

00:25:10.000 The more certain you should be that you must keep pushing ahead.

00:25:15.000 You must keep pushing forward.

00:25:20.000 And always have the courage to be yourself.

00:25:25.000 America is better when people put their faith into action.

00:25:31.000 Pray to God.

00:25:33.000 And follow his teachings.

00:25:35.000 Today, each of you begins a new chapter as well.

00:25:39.000 When your story goes from here, it will be defined by your vision, your perseverance, and your grit.

00:25:50.000 You will build a future where we have the courage to chase our dreams no matter what the cynics and the doubters have to say.

00:25:59.000 You will have the confidence to speak the hopes in your hearts and to express the love that stirs your souls.

00:26:08.000 As long as you have pride in your beliefs, courage in your convictions, and faith in God,

00:26:17.000 Then you will not fail.

00:26:20.000 As long as America remains true to its values, loyal to its citizens, and devoted to its creator, then our best days are yet to come.

00:27:10.000 May God bless the United States of America.

00:27:15.000 And I just want to let you know that God blesses you.

00:27:18.000 And I want to just say, you are special in every way.

00:27:25.000 God bless you, and God bless America.

00:27:27.000 Thank you very much.

00:27:29.000 Thank you.

00:27:45.000 We are going to make our country great again!

00:29:00.000 We're good to go.

00:29:59.000 69.

00:30:00.000 Now it's time for new believable people.

00:30:04.000 And we must do it.

00:30:06.000 If we don't control insiders, this will be over and over.

00:30:11.000 To lead by an A. Big, fat, love, find common ground.

00:30:16.000 To halt the spread of lies.

00:30:19.000 And we must do it.

00:30:20.000 Big, fat, love, find common ground.

00:30:24.000 To halt the spread of lies.

00:30:31.000 America first.

00:30:32.000 Non-fatal.

00:30:33.000 We want to build a much better, believable people.

00:30:37.000 And we must do it non-fatal.

00:30:40.000 Communication very much higher.

00:30:43.000 America first.

00:30:44.000 To lead it by an A. Insiders fighting for insiders.

00:30:48.000 Time to stop.

00:30:50.000 Insiders fighting for insiders.

00:30:52.000 More of insiders fighting for insiders.

00:30:56.000 Time to stop.

00:30:57.000 Insiders fighting for insiders.

00:31:01.000 Love the flow.

00:31:06.000 69.

00:31:07.000 Now it's time for new, believable people.

00:31:11.000 And we must do it.

00:31:13.000 If we don't control insiders, this will be over and over.

00:31:18.000 To lead it by an A. Big, fat, love, find common ground.

00:31:23.000 To halt the spread of lies.

00:31:25.000 And we must do it.

00:31:27.000 Big, fat, love, find common ground.

00:31:30.000 To halt the spread of lies.

00:31:33.000 An A. 0.88

00:31:39.000 We're good to go.

00:32:14.000 President Obama will go down as perhaps the worst president in the history of the United States.

00:32:20.000 At real Donald Trump.

00:32:23.000 At real Donald Trump.

00:32:26.000 At least I will go down as a president.

00:32:34.000 Now America is once again at a moment of reckoning.

00:32:41.000 Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American people.

00:33:00.000 We will make America great again!

00:33:04.000 I love this country!

00:33:05.000 It's payback time!

00:33:07.000 We're gonna take our country back from these people! 0.80

00:33:30.000 He will never be president.

00:33:31.000 I will win.

00:33:32.000 This is for me.

00:33:33.000 We're gonna win at so many levels!

00:33:33.000 For someone.

00:33:54.000 We're gonna win, win, win!

00:33:55.000 We will make America great again!

00:33:57.000 I love you!

00:34:01.000 Mr. President-elect.

00:35:32.000 We're good.

00:36:07.000 Let's do it.

00:37:27.000 I don't know.

00:38:13.000 Sorry to keep you waiting, complicated business.

00:38:26.000 The more that a broken system tells you that you're wrong, the more certain you should be that you must keep pushing ahead.

00:38:37.000 Because it's the outsiders who change the world and who make a real and lasting difference.

00:38:43.000 Nothing worth doing ever came easy.

00:38:48.000 Treat the word impossible as nothing more than motivation.

00:38:54.000 The future belongs to the people who follow their heart no matter what the critics say.

00:39:01.000 We must always remember that we share one home and one glorious destiny.

00:39:08.000 We all bleed the same red blood of patriots.

00:39:13.000 We all salute the same great American flag.

00:39:17.000 Our best days are yet to come. 1.00

00:40:06.000 It's wonderful if you have smart people, but we have people that are stupid. 1.00

00:40:14.000 The American dream is dead. 1.00

00:40:22.000 But if I get elected president,

00:44:40.000 But as soon as people start playing games, I stop.

00:44:43.000 I stop playing games.

00:44:45.000 And at any moment...

00:45:28.000 Not my words, not my rules, I just enforce them, alright?

00:46:02.000 Everything.

00:46:03.000 Warming up.

00:46:04.000 Everybody who dares to...

00:46:32.000 We're good.

00:47:18.000 This is from your biggest Clawson fan, may you one day see the light.

00:47:22.000 Well, hey, thanks, love you too, but I'm sorry, I believe in religion in a sense, so... Napoleon, Alexander the Great, Donald Trump, we're all cut from the same cloth, and that cloth is very, very large.

00:47:36.000 It's not too big, is it?

00:47:39.000 Okay.

00:47:46.000 It's wrong, isn't it?

00:47:48.000 It feels so right.

00:47:49.000 It's a deal?

00:47:50.000 I put together some really impressive deals.

00:47:53.000 I like that.

00:47:54.000 Go big or go home!

00:48:45.000 Thank you very much.

00:48:48.000 I'm done with it.

00:49:33.000 Crump's got a new day!

00:49:33.000 Crump's got a new deal!

00:50:06.000 My new game is Trump the game.

00:50:08.000 Trump the game.

00:50:10.000 This sounds like political presidential.

00:50:13.000 You said, though, that if you did run for president, you'd believe you'd win.

00:50:19.000 I like that.

00:50:21.000 I would say that I would have a hell of a chance of winning.

00:50:27.000 I didn't want to lose.

00:50:29.000 I've never wanted to lose in my life.

00:50:33.000 I don't know how your audience feels, but I think people are tired of seeing the United States ripped off.

00:50:38.000 That's the guy on the floor, right?

00:50:42.000 That's me.

00:50:42.000 Thank you.

00:51:56.000 We can't go back to the past.

00:51:58.000 That's what people always say, isn't it?

00:52:00.000 They say, can we really go back?

00:52:01.000 And the answer is, whether you're conservative or liberal, right what you're left with, the answer is no.

00:52:08.000 We're never going back.

00:52:09.000 It's done.

00:52:10.000 It's gone.

00:52:11.000 All of that is gone.

00:52:12.000 Americanism, not globalism, will be our credo!

00:52:19.000 It's going to be only America first. 0.99

00:52:24.000 America first.

00:52:28.000 The American people will come first once again.

00:52:55.000 America first!

00:52:58.000 America first!

00:54:17.000 Good evening, everybody.

00:54:18.000 You're watching America First.

00:54:20.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes, and we are watching the Republican National Convention, day three.

00:54:28.000 We're going to be locked in all night.

00:54:30.000 I believe we're looking forward tonight to a speech from the vice presidential nominee, J.D.

00:54:35.000 Vance.

00:54:37.000 It's going to be a big day.

00:54:38.000 So we're back again, and we're not really enjoying it, but

00:54:45.000 We're going to get through it together.

00:54:46.000 So we're going to jump in.

00:54:48.000 We got Newt Gingrich speaking and then I guess I'll be back at the next break.

00:54:55.000 President Biden gave it to the Taliban who are now allied with Communist China.

00:55:04.000 Where President Trump brokered the Abraham Accords and was moving the Middle East toward peace and cooperation.

00:55:12.000 President Biden's weakness and confusion led to a terrible Hamas assault killing more than 1,200 innocent people in Israel.

00:55:22.000 Under Trump, which he keeps to strength, under Biden, we have war, suffering, death, and a world teetering on the edge of World War III.

00:55:35.000 Like Prime Minister Winston Churchill and President Abraham Lincoln, President Trump understands that only a firm, courageous policy of strength will work in a dangerous world.

00:55:48.000 The message for this November is clear.

00:55:52.000 You can vote for weakness and war with Biden, or you can vote for strength and peace with President Trump.

00:56:04.000 W. Let's dedicate ourselves to making America safe, strong, and proud again with President Trump.

00:56:21.000 I'll just keep this right here.

00:56:23.000 You hang out right here, okay?

00:56:26.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome former director of the United States offer of trade and manufacturing policy, Peter Navarro.

00:56:34.000 All right.

00:57:00.000 So I guess tonight's all about foreign policy, make America strong again.

00:57:30.000 Alright.

00:57:34.000 Navarro's not bad, honestly.

00:57:40.000 Whoops.

00:57:53.000 This is a beautiful thing.

00:57:57.000 I think you folks just want to know if you can see my maggot tattoo I got there.

00:58:06.000 Yes, indeed, this morning I did walk out of a federal prison in Miami.

00:58:18.000 Joe Biden and his Department of Injustice put me there.

00:58:27.000 Department of Injustice, that's what I call it.

00:58:33.000 If they can come for me, if they can come for Donald Trump, be careful, they will come for you.

00:58:44.000 If we don't control our government, their government will control us.

00:58:54.000 If we don't control all three branches of our government, legislative, executive and judicial, their government will put some of us like me and Steve Bannon in prison.

00:59:07.000 Boo! 0.83

00:59:09.000 And control the rest of us.

00:59:11.000 Bannon should be in prison.

00:59:14.000 Here's how it went.

00:59:15.000 Here's how I got in prison.

00:59:16.000 The legislative branch came for me first.

00:59:21.000 Your favorite Democrat, Nancy Pelosi... I hate Nancy Pelosi! 1.00

00:59:28.000 ...created your favorite committee, the sham January 6th committee.

00:59:33.000 Yeah, more like the unselect committee. 0.96

00:59:36.000 More like the January sucks committee. 0.93

00:59:40.000 What did I do? 0.98

00:59:42.000 I refused.

00:59:46.000 Based.

00:59:48.000 The J6 committee demanded that I betray Donald John Trump to save my own skin.

00:59:55.000 I refused.

00:59:59.000 W. Here's the thing about the Constitution.

01:00:06.000 They demanded that I break the law because they have no respect for it.

01:00:13.000 I refused.

01:00:14.000 And a Democrat majority in the House

01:00:18.000 then voted to hold me in contempt.

01:00:22.000 Alright, what happened next?

01:00:23.000 The next jackboot to drop was the executive branch.

01:00:28.000 Another one of your favorite Democrats, Democrat Attorney General Merrick Garland.

01:00:36.000 Boo! 0.83

01:00:38.000 There's a winner. 0.99

01:00:39.000 Yeah, more like a loser.

01:00:42.000 Jack Smith indicted and prosecuted me for criminal contempt of Congress. 0.91

01:00:48.000 Now here's what's weird about it.

01:00:49.000 It's something that Democrat prosecutors refuse to do.

01:00:55.000 True.

01:01:10.000 I actually like Peter Navarro, I'm just messing.

01:01:12.000 Department of Justice?

01:01:14.000 More like comportment of insouciance. 1.00

01:01:17.000 Assholes. 1.00

01:01:34.000 Why, I oughta, you oughta go pound sand, mister! 1.00

01:01:37.000 Hey listen, buster.

01:01:54.000 I did to Donald John Trump in his Manhattan kangaroo court.

01:01:59.000 Another Democrat judge, a guy named Ahmed Mehta, keep your eye on this guy.

01:02:05.000 Ahmed Mehta, Obama appointee.

01:02:08.000 They stripped me of every possible defense, and then what?

01:02:12.000 Just like in Manhattan with Donald Trump, they threw me to the wolves of an anti-Trump jury in where?

01:02:18.000 The D.C.

01:02:19.000 swamp.

01:02:20.000 They convicted me, they jailed me.

01:02:22.000 Guess what?

01:02:23.000 They did not break me.

01:02:26.000 W. I love this guy.

01:02:30.000 He's actually a good guy.

01:02:34.000 He was one of the only ones fighting on January 6th.

01:02:37.000 It was him and Garrett Ziegler, who's a great guy and he worked for Navarro.

01:02:43.000 They were the only ones, well, some of the only ones fighting to overturn the election.

01:02:48.000 They will never break Donald Trump.

01:02:52.000 If you didn't know that.

01:02:53.000 The woke blue carpet.

01:03:19.000 When Donald Trump said it, thank you for saying that, when Donald Trump said murderers and rapists in 2016, they go, oh, racist, whatever.

01:03:26.000 We read the papers. 0.98

01:03:28.000 It's murderers and rapists. 1.00

01:03:30.000 Murderers and rapists, drug cartels, human traffickers, terrorists. 1.00

01:03:36.000 Chinese spies! 1.00

01:03:38.000 And a whole army of illiterate, illegal aliens stealing the jobs of black, brown, and blue-collar Americans. 0.99

01:03:47.000 They put them right on your... Now here's another thing, Joe Biden. 0.98

01:03:52.000 You've got to love this.

01:03:54.000 The Green New Scam. 0.95

01:03:56.000 Ha! 0.89

01:03:56.000 More like a Green New Scam! 0.89

01:03:58.000 You know what I call it? 1.00

01:03:58.000 Green New Bullshit! 1.00

01:03:59.000 Green New Crap! 1.00

01:04:14.000 Biden inflation is coming after what's left of your savings and eating your wages. 0.98

01:04:20.000 Here's the thing.

01:04:20.000 Isn't it, Democrats?

01:04:21.000 I'm sitting in prison thinking about this.

01:04:24.000 It just eats at me.

01:04:26.000 Democrats come for your kids. 0.99

01:04:29.000 They're indoctrinating them with poisonous attitudes on race and gender.

01:04:34.000 And here's the thing.

01:04:34.000 When politics fails, the investigations and prosecutions begin.

01:04:39.000 They did it to me.

01:04:40.000 They're going to do it to Trump.

01:04:42.000 Oh, hey!

01:04:42.000 Okay.

01:04:42.000 Love when they shout out the Catholics.

01:04:57.000 Someone in the chat, more like Green New Injustice.

01:05:00.000 That was good.

01:05:27.000 In Trump's America, you didn't have to worry about being locked up for disagreeing with the government.

01:05:40.000 I went to prison so you won't have to.

01:05:48.000 Nice.

01:05:49.000 I am your wake-up call.

01:05:52.000 I love the new golden hats.

01:05:59.000 All right, this is where I'm going to have fun now, because I'm going to leave you now with the last three words, the last three words my beautiful fiance said when I left that morning for prison.

01:06:13.000 They weren't, I love you.

01:06:15.000 That was a given.

01:06:17.000 She simply said, we got this.

01:06:22.000 We got this.

01:06:26.000 Good speech.

01:06:33.000 That's what... Bring my girl out now. 1.00

01:06:56.000 That's what these lawfare jackals don't understand.

01:07:00.000 That's the fiance? 0.69

01:07:01.000 That's crazy.

01:07:01.000 These MAGA people are... They're something else, man.

01:07:04.000 God bless them.

01:07:04.000 Boomer Riz.

01:07:29.000 Now here's the sweetest thing that's going to come off my lips.

01:07:32.000 Vote Trump Vance.

01:07:36.000 24 for Trump.

01:07:38.000 47.

01:07:39.000 Little math there for you.

01:07:45.000 Little bit of math.

01:07:48.000 I went to prison so you won't have to.

01:07:50.000 This is my beautiful girl.

01:07:52.000 She did the time with me. 0.99

01:07:54.000 That's what these friggin Democrats don't understand. 0.99

01:07:57.000 They do this to our families. 0.99

01:07:59.000 That's my queen.

01:08:05.000 She did a time with me.

01:08:08.000 She did a time with me.

01:08:09.000 That's my queen. 0.99

01:08:10.000 That ain't my bitch. 1.00

01:08:12.000 That's my queen, man. 0.99

01:08:15.000 She did a time with me.

01:08:18.000 That was awesome.

01:08:19.000 They're awesome, man.

01:08:22.000 That's hilarious.

01:08:25.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Congresswoman Monica De La Cruz of Texas.

01:08:31.000 Vital, very vital people.

01:08:41.000 Hello Milwaukee!

01:08:44.000 On behalf of the great state of Texas,

01:08:51.000 It is an honor to be with you tonight.

01:09:02.000 I am the proud granddaughter of Mexican farm workers who came here with little more than faith in God. 0.99

01:09:12.000 They never had much money, but they instilled in us strong Texas values.

01:09:18.000 Every time.

01:09:20.000 I am the daughter of Mexican mailman, bartender, nurse.

01:09:20.000 Every time.

01:09:29.000 They had one pair of pants and no money, but they believed in Abraham Lincoln and Winston Churchill, and I fly an Apache helicopter.

01:09:38.000 And we're back.

01:09:38.000 Okay.

01:09:40.000 Yeah, I'm thinking it's the GOP.

01:09:56.000 Only in America can a little girl from South Texas go from watching her abuelo pick watermelons to serving in the people's house.

01:10:13.000 Okay.

01:10:15.000 Now I'm a mother.

01:10:16.000 I often think about my kids' future, and I'm worried.

01:10:22.000 The American dream is slipping away.

01:10:25.000 Joe Biden and Kamala Harris make it impossible for hardworking Americans, like the people in my community, to get ahead.

01:10:35.000 Their policies put homeownership out of reach.

01:10:39.000 Wages can't keep up with inflation.

01:10:42.000 They give benefits to illegal immigrants and cut Medicare Advantage for our seniors. 1.00

01:10:55.000 They say their immigration policies are compassionate, but there's nothing compassionate about open borders.

01:11:04.000 They threaten our national security, flood our country with deadly drugs, killing our precious children.

01:11:14.000 Biden and Harris don't care about immigrants.

01:11:17.000 They just use them for political gain.

01:11:21.000 We deserve so much better.

01:11:25.000 We must make America strong again by re-electing President Trump.

01:11:32.000 Yep.

01:11:34.000 Love the shoes.

01:11:35.000 America high heels. 0.98

01:11:39.000 Under his leadership, we can put hard-working Americans first again, end this border crisis.

01:11:45.000 We can restore peace and prosperity, creating an amazing future with endless possibilities.

01:11:53.000 And we can rebuild the most vital institution of all, the American family.

01:12:08.000 No banana.

01:12:09.000 You see that?

01:12:10.000 To anti-banana.

01:12:11.000 Remember, no banana.

01:12:13.000 Alright.

01:12:31.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome former Acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Tom Homan.

01:12:39.000 Boo! 0.83

01:12:40.000 Remember this guy walked out of AFPAC?

01:12:44.000 Boo! 0.83

01:13:03.000 Thank you.

01:13:06.000 How you doing?

01:13:10.000 My home state, New York.

01:13:11.000 Where's New York at?

01:13:12.000 Give me a shout! 0.98

01:13:13.000 Damn right. 0.98

01:13:17.000 Look, for those who don't know me, my name is Tom Holman. 0.96

01:13:20.000 But I'll be objective.

01:13:21.000 I began my career as a Border Patrol agent in 1984.

01:13:25.000 After 34 years, I became the first Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE, that actually came up through the ranks.

01:13:33.000 I've worked for six presidents, starting with Ronald Reagan.

01:13:37.000 Every president I've worked for said they're going to secure the border.

01:13:41.000 President Trump actually did it!

01:13:48.000 He created the most secure border in our history.

01:13:51.000 And that's a stone cold fact.

01:13:54.000 The data proves it.

01:13:55.000 And guess what?

01:13:56.000 He's going to do it again.

01:13:57.000 That's not true.

01:14:03.000 Under President Trump, we cut illegal immigration by 90%, the lowest level in 45 years.

01:14:10.000 The pandemic cut illegal immigration to the highest level ever, including historic numbers of illegal alien gang members and criminals.

01:14:19.000 Most importantly, four years under President Trump, we had 13 people we arrested on a terrorist watch list.

01:14:26.000 Joe Biden, 381.

01:14:32.000 And let's remember, let's remember, we got over two million known gotaways.

01:14:36.000 How many of them came from a country that sponsored terrorism?

01:14:40.000 God help us.

01:14:43.000 Biden is the first president in American history to come into office and unsecure a border.

01:14:51.000 Who the hell does that? 0.55

01:14:54.000 On their first day in office, first day in office, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris suspended deportations.

01:15:01.000 They stopped the border wall.

01:15:02.000 They canceled Remain in Mexico.

01:15:04.000 They reinstated catch and release.

01:15:06.000 They proposed amnesty for millions along with free health care.

01:15:11.000 And now we have a record illegal immigration, a record number of women and children being sex trafficked, a record number of Americans dying from fentanyl, a record number of known suspected terrorists sneaking across our border.

01:15:26.000 And here's what you need to know.

01:15:28.000 This isn't mismanagement.

01:15:30.000 This isn't incompetence.

01:15:32.000 This is by design, and it's a choice.

01:15:35.000 It's true.

01:15:35.000 It's national suicide.

01:15:37.000 True.

01:15:42.000 But you know what?

01:15:43.000 On November 5th, American people do have a choice, and they're gonna stop this madness.

01:15:51.000 Hmm, love that sign.

01:15:51.000 I got a message.

01:15:54.000 As a guy who spent 34 years deporting illegal aliens,

01:15:58.000 I got a message to the millions of illegal aliens that Joe Biden's releasing in our country in violation of federal law.

01:16:04.000 You better start packing now.

01:16:07.000 Oh, please.

01:16:09.000 Not gonna happen.

01:16:12.000 I love that they're cheering for that.

01:16:14.000 I love the signs, but it won't happen.

01:16:19.000 I got another message.

01:16:21.000 Another message to the criminal cartels in Mexico. 0.99

01:16:25.000 You smuggled enough fentanyl across this country to kill 148,000 young Americans. 0.99

01:16:30.000 You have killed more Americans than every terrorist organization in the world combined.

01:16:35.000 And that's when President Trump gets back in office.

01:16:38.000 He's going to designate you a terrorist organization. 0.96

01:16:40.000 He's going to wipe you off the face of the earth. 0.99

01:16:43.000 You're done! 0.99

01:16:44.000 You're done!

01:16:47.000 Love the energy though.

01:16:56.000 President Trump is going to end the Biden-Harris open border madness.

01:17:00.000 We will stop the drugs and the crime from pouring into your neighborhoods.

01:17:04.000 President Trump has proven to the American people that he's a warrior.

01:17:11.000 And he's going to make America safe again, and you can take that to the bank.

01:17:18.000 It's a good speech.

01:17:20.000 This is a good day.

01:17:21.000 It's off to a good start.

01:17:26.000 It's good to hear finally about immigration, although I'm very pessimistic about the deportations, but regardless.

01:17:36.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage David Lara.

01:17:49.000 Hello, Milwaukee.

01:17:52.000 I have a proud husband and father of a small business in San Luis, Arizona.

01:18:03.000 A town that sits directly on the US-Mexico border.

01:18:07.000 We are the front line of the Biden's border crisis.

01:18:11.000 Small towns like mine bear the brunt of the chaos.

01:18:16.000 Imagine crowds rushing the port, overwhelming border patrol.

01:18:21.000 When they know they don't have enough agents to detain everyone.

01:18:26.000 Imagine strangers terrorizing your homes, your neighbors, your yards, and local schools, going fearful to let children walk home.

01:18:37.000 Imagine the fire department using off-road vehicles to bring your neighbors to the hospital, because the ambulances are taken by so-called asylum seekers. 1.00

01:18:50.000 Imagine being treated as second-class citizens, as chaos and crime overwhelm your streets.

01:18:58.000 I don't have to imagine this.

01:19:00.000 I've watched it with my own eyes.

01:19:03.000 I've seen my town suffer because Biden and Kamala Harris want the illegal immigration crisis to continue.

01:19:12.000 And no amount of suffering has changed their mind or convinced them to finally put Americans first.

01:19:19.000 In San Luis, Mexican drug cartels use school children as mules.

01:19:26.000 Let that sink in.

01:19:30.000 Deadly drugs flow through our town, bringing crime and violence.

01:19:35.000 San Luis wasn't always this way.

01:19:37.000 And Joe Biden and Kamala Harris do not care.

01:19:41.000 In fact, they seem satisfied.

01:19:44.000 They have done nothing to stop it and everything to make it worse.

01:19:50.000 They have never set foot on my border town.

01:19:53.000 Four years ago, president who believe in borders, and we have a president who traveled all the way to San Luis.

01:20:05.000 We had a president who cared, and we can have that president again.

01:20:10.000 We must

01:20:19.000 We must re-elect President Trump to close the border, the crime, and stop the drugs from pouring in.

01:20:31.000 We must re-elect President Trump to imprison and deport violent gang members instead of coddling them.

01:20:39.000 Terrorize our nation.

01:20:41.000 We must re-elect President Trump to put our citizens first and make America strong again.

01:20:57.000 Los Latinos estamos con Trump.

01:21:00.000 Thank you, Milwaukee.

01:21:01.000 American Latinos for Trump.

01:21:03.000 True.

01:21:04.000 Latinos for Trump. 0.72

01:21:09.000 Okay, well I don't, you know... I'm a little bit less cynical about that stuff.

01:21:17.000 If they're calling for an end to illegal immigration,

01:21:23.000 And they're from the Southwest, fine.

01:21:25.000 That's not the worst thing.

01:21:27.000 As long as it's not this pro-immigrant rhetoric where it's like, well, the problem is they're affecting us legal immigrants.

01:21:34.000 It's fine.

01:21:36.000 So we're off to a pretty strong start.

01:21:38.000 Today the theme is Make America Strong Again.

01:21:41.000 I don't really understand though.

01:21:43.000 I thought yesterday was, I suppose yesterday was immigration and crime. 1.00

01:21:49.000 And mostly crime.

01:21:52.000 But it seems like that's kind of a lot of overlap.

01:21:54.000 Oh, all right, great.

01:21:55.000 We got, we are Jews for Trump.

01:21:57.000 Let's go.

01:21:59.000 So I guess today is make America strong again.

01:22:02.000 Sounds like a lot of border talk.

01:22:04.000 Like I said, a lot stronger so far.

01:22:06.000 I love those signs, mass deportations now.

01:22:09.000 The thing is though, I don't think that's actually going to happen because I don't think the administration has the will for it.

01:22:20.000 For there to be mass deportations, you are going to need a federal immigration force.

01:22:26.000 You're going to need to expand ICE.

01:22:28.000 You're going to need money for that.

01:22:30.000 I don't think Congress will provide the money.

01:22:32.000 I don't think the federal government will hire the ICE agents.

01:22:36.000 What they have said, what Trump and Vance have said, is that they are going to rely on local law enforcement.

01:22:42.000 Not ICE, local law enforcement.

01:22:45.000 And they've said they're going to prioritize violent offenders, violent criminals, and gangs.

01:22:51.000 And while it's true that those are the highest priority people to deport, that's also just law enforcement.

01:22:58.000 That's actually just, like, regular domestic law enforcement.

01:23:01.000 Like, of course we're going to deport murderers.

01:23:03.000 But there's, like, 40 million illegal aliens here.

01:23:07.000 So, in other words, they're not going to go door to door and remove everybody.

01:23:13.000 And they're probably not going to remove a lot of people.

01:23:17.000 And this is my beautiful wife, Sue.

01:23:20.000 We've been married for 60 years.

01:23:25.000 Love this.

01:23:28.000 That's cute.

01:23:31.000 I'm a fifth generation rancher from Arivaca, Arizona, the great state of Arizona.

01:23:43.000 Five and a half miles of our ranch is the U.S.-Mexico border.

01:23:50.000 It's a known route for drug smuggling and human trafficking.

01:23:57.000 On the screen you'll see footage from our ranch.

01:24:02.000 Since Joe Biden took office, our hidden cameras have recorded over 3,500 drug packers and others dressed in camouflage marching north through our ranch.

01:24:25.000 These are not asylum seekers.

01:24:30.000 It looks like, and it feels like, an invasion because it is.

01:24:39.000 Nice.

01:24:40.000 Yeah, much better today.

01:24:41.000 Great rhetoric today.

01:24:42.000 In April alone, over 5,000 additional unvetted aliens entered our ranch, claiming economic asylum.

01:24:55.000 We know firsthand

01:24:58.000 That Biden's open border is our nation's greatest national security threat.

01:25:13.000 We need to make America safe again.

01:25:22.000 Every time Jim leaves the ranch house, I have to worry that he won't come back alive.

01:25:30.000 I love these people.

01:25:31.000 Our house has been broken into twice.

01:25:33.000 A Border Patrol agent was shot five times by drug smugglers on our ranch.

01:25:51.000 This year alone, three crossers died of dehydration on our ranch. 1.00

01:25:57.000 The cartel drug smugglers are crossing our nation's border every day.

01:26:04.000 They are bringing lethal drugs into our country.

01:26:10.000 This is chemical warfare.

01:26:20.000 It's killing Americans. 0.78

01:26:24.000 Under President Donald Trump, it wasn't like this.

01:26:29.000 And if we bring him back, I know he'll stop it again.

01:26:42.000 Biden, Harris, and the Democrats who support open borders

01:26:47.000 Are complicit in this death, in the death of tens of thousands of American citizens.

01:26:55.000 When Joe Biden took office, the Trump wall was nearly complete on our ranch.

01:27:02.000 But Biden halted the construction and stopped the installation of all the planned electronics.

01:27:12.000 Since then, crossing on our ranch has increased five-fold.

01:27:19.000 Five-fold.

01:27:24.000 I love these people.

01:27:26.000 See, these are like old-school Westerners. 0.64

01:27:28.000 It's like Biden and Harris want the lawlessness.

01:27:35.000 The fact is that walls work.

01:27:38.000 We must elect Donald Trump to finish the wall.

01:27:42.000 Yes!

01:27:43.000 Finally!

01:27:45.000 Finally!

01:27:45.000 To stop the cartels.

01:27:58.000 Yes!

01:27:59.000 Finally!

01:28:05.000 That's so refreshing to hear.

01:28:16.000 And we must keep America safe and strong.

01:28:21.000 Thank you.

01:28:23.000 Nice.

01:28:29.000 Great speech.

01:28:32.000 See, this is actually what it should be about.

01:28:35.000 Why couldn't we have four days of this?

01:28:37.000 Why couldn't we have four days of the actual issues for the base? 0.98

01:28:43.000 This is like a convention, finally, for the Republicans, where they're talking about a wall, talking about an invasion, talking about illegal immigrants being murderers and rapists.

01:28:56.000 And I'm even okay with a little bit of diversity. 0.89

01:28:59.000 It's a diverse country.

01:29:01.000 There are a lot of Hispanic Republicans.

01:29:03.000 There's some black Republicans.

01:29:05.000 I don't... It's not about... Everybody's trying to cast me now as like some kind of a hater.

01:29:10.000 It's not even the diversity that's the issue.

01:29:13.000 It's the dilution of the platform.

01:29:17.000 And it's the GOP becoming the diversity party. 0.72

01:29:22.000 If you, like on Monday, on Monday sneak goes like, well, why is Nick mad that it's all black people? 0.89

01:29:27.000 It's like, because it's so, it's the DEI day.

01:29:30.000 It was one after the other after the other. 1.00

01:29:32.000 Oh, this guy, this guy sucks. 0.99

01:29:40.000 So anyway, so this is, this is good. 0.99

01:29:43.000 I'm actually liking this.

01:29:48.000 Thank y'all very much.

01:29:53.000 Thank y'all very much.

01:29:57.000 Thank y'all very much.

01:30:03.000 Greg Abbott's terrible.

01:30:07.000 Come on, let's go. 0.98

01:30:10.000 As governor of the largest border state, the great state of Texas,

01:30:24.000 I can tell you, I can tell you, America needs a president who will secure our border.

01:30:37.000 America needs Donald J. Trump.

01:30:47.000 The president's most sacred duty is to secure our country.

01:30:54.000 Donald Trump fulfilled that duty by eliminating illegal immigration.

01:31:02.000 Under President Trump, we had the lowest illegal border crossings in about four decades.

01:31:12.000 By contrast, however, Joe Biden deserted his duty.

01:31:19.000 On his first day in office, he gutted President Trump's policies.

01:31:25.000 And the result has been catastrophic.

01:31:29.000 Under Joe Biden, illegal immigration has skyrocketed.

01:31:35.000 Under his watch, around 11 million immigrants have crossed our border illegally.

01:31:44.000 That's more than the entire population of Michigan.

01:31:49.000 It's twice the population of Wisconsin.

01:31:53.000 Biden has welcomed into our country rapists, murderers, even terrorists, and the price that we have paid has been deadly.

01:32:09.000 Among the many victims was 12-year-old Jocelyn from Houston, Texas. 0.99

01:32:19.000 raped and murdered by two illegal immigrants. 0.88

01:32:27.000 She's one of thousands whose lives have been destroyed by Joe Biden's open border policies.

01:32:36.000 To make matters even worse, Biden is even fighting tooth and nail to stop Texas and other Republican states from securing our own borders.

01:32:51.000 I deployed thousands of National Guard soldiers to build hundreds of miles of razor wire barriers.

01:33:03.000 Give it up for our National Guard!

01:33:11.000 They built those barriers to stop illegal crossings.

01:33:15.000 When Joe Biden ordered to cut that razor wire, I ordered the National Guard to triple the razor wire on the border.

01:33:30.000 He's letting them in.

01:33:31.000 There's a colony of illegal immigrants in Texas.

01:33:56.000 That Abbott has allowed to exist.

01:33:58.000 Now, there's no longer 5,000 people crossing the border like there was under Joe Biden.

01:34:05.000 Now that the National Guard wired that shut, on average, there is one illegal immigrant crossing the border at that location a day.

01:34:18.000 When Joe Biden and Kamala Harris refused to even come to Texas and to see the border crisis that they created, I took the border to them.

01:34:31.000 I began busting illegal immigrants to Washington, D.C. 1.00

01:34:36.000 Great.

01:34:36.000 He's sending them all over the country.

01:34:38.000 That's awesome.

01:34:39.000 I don't know why Republicans like that.

01:34:43.000 And we have continued busing migrants to sanctuary cities across the entire country.

01:34:49.000 Oh, great.

01:34:50.000 And those buses will continue to roll until we finally secure our border.

01:35:01.000 Fortunately, fortunately, I see hope on the horizon, because on November the 5th, Joe Biden will be fired

01:35:17.000 And Donald Trump will once again become the President of the United States of America.

01:35:28.000 He will enforce the immigration laws. 0.56

01:35:32.000 He will fight the Mexican drug cartels. 0.59

01:35:35.000 And he will arrest the criminal, illegal immigrants and put them behind bars. 1.00

01:35:45.000 Or send them back! 0.99

01:35:55.000 Love the champs.

01:36:02.000 It is time.

01:36:04.000 It is time to restore order at the border.

01:36:09.000 It is time to rid our streets of crime and chaos.

01:36:15.000 It is time to secure our nation by returning Donald Trump as President of the United States of America.

01:36:27.000 Thank you all.

01:36:27.000 God bless.

01:36:38.000 Yeah, see, the only problem that I have is that the rhetoric is all great.

01:36:45.000 But like Thomas Holman said, and this is true, Republicans have been talking about securing the border for 50 years.

01:36:52.000 They've talked about it.

01:36:53.000 So they've given speeches like this and they've promised it.

01:36:58.000 They've even talked about a, not a border wall, but they've talked about a border barrier.

01:37:03.000 I hate the dancing.

01:37:05.000 I know I'm like such a, but I don't like it.

01:37:08.000 I feel like it's very uncharacteristic.

01:37:10.000 If you look at like, if you remember what Trump was like in 2016, I know everybody loves it.

01:37:14.000 I know it's fun.

01:37:15.000 I know people think it's funny.

01:37:16.000 I get that.

01:37:17.000 It is fun.

01:37:19.000 But if you go back to the way that Trump was in 16, he would look at Trump dancing and he'd be like, he would not like it.

01:37:26.000 Um, but anyway, it's besides the point.

01:37:30.000 I just look at it.

01:37:30.000 I'm like, well, what are we doing?

01:37:32.000 You know, it's a little goofy.

01:37:34.000 I know a lot of you guys aren't going to agree with that, but anyway.

01:37:37.000 So the problem with all this rhetoric about illegal immigration is that it rallies the base, everybody gets excited, but it never happens.

01:37:45.000 And even under Trump, Trump was maybe the biggest promise of securing the border because he was a political outsider, he proposed a physical wall.

01:37:54.000 But it didn't happen.

01:37:56.000 And I don't think it was entirely his fault.

01:37:58.000 The Republican Congress wouldn't give him the money for it.

01:38:02.000 But illegal immigration was persistently high under Trump throughout, through 2019, through three years, the first three years of the presidency.

01:38:10.000 And it wasn't until the COVID pandemic that it started to come down.

01:38:16.000 So, we'll see what actually happens this time.

01:38:20.000 Good evening, Milwaukee.

01:38:24.000 This past Saturday, I was at the Trump rally in Butler.

01:38:31.000 I in fact was the first speaker on stage that day.

01:38:38.000 As you can imagine, it was a terrifying experience, but nothing, nothing was going to stop me from being here to support President Trump.

01:38:59.000 Thank God President Trump is alive.

01:39:13.000 I'm Sarah Phillips and I'm honored to speak to you about one of the most important issues in this campaign.

01:39:21.000 Energy.

01:39:29.000 President Trump is high energy and supports energy.

01:39:34.000 Biden is low energy and is against energy.

01:39:38.000 The difference is significant for you and significant for our country.

01:39:47.000 President Trump understands that abundant, affordable energy is vital to our economy and to our national security.

01:40:03.000 Meanwhile, President Biden is pushing the Green New Scam.

01:40:09.000 Okay.

01:40:10.000 Why did they choose that as the rhetoric?

01:40:14.000 President Biden declared war on the oil and gas industry since day one.

01:40:23.000 I still don't get Green New Scam.

01:40:25.000 Wouldn't it make sense to call it the Green New Steel instead of the Green New Scam?

01:40:29.000 That's just me, I don't know.

01:40:51.000 I know this firsthand.

01:40:53.000 As a petroleum engineer who worked on the front lines as a Roughneck, I have witnessed the safe and environmentally responsible way America develops oil and gas resources.

01:41:13.000 And I have worked side-by-side with those in the field who I consider family and who are dedicated and hard-working.

01:41:24.000 Their critical work is so critical for our country.

01:41:29.000 The hydrocarbons that are being extracted are a true gift.

01:41:35.000 She's very passionate about petroleum.

01:41:59.000 That is among the many reasons why we need to return Donald Trump to the White House.

01:42:12.000 With President Trump back in charge, we'll not only be energy independent, we'll be energy dominant.

01:42:23.000 Green new scam.

01:42:25.000 Energy dominance.

01:42:26.000 We'll create jobs, increase investment, and improve our national security.

01:42:33.000 Under President Trump's leadership, America's great economic revival will be powered by American energy.

01:42:47.000 He did it before, and he will do it again.

01:42:53.000 For the sake of our economy, for the sake of our quality of life, and for the sake of America's future, let's return Donald Trump to the White House.

01:43:07.000 I like her energy, though.

01:43:08.000 I love her intensity.

01:43:18.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:19.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:20.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:21.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:22.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:23.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:24.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:25.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:26.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:28.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:29.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:30.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:33.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:34.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:35.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:36.000 Drill, baby, drill! 1.00

01:43:40.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the mayor of East Palestine, Ohio, Trent Conaway.

01:43:47.000 Let's go Palestine! 1.00

01:43:48.000 Free Palestine!

01:43:51.000 Oh boy.

01:43:53.000 Big guy.

01:43:57.000 That's a little excessive.

01:43:58.000 Okay, that's a little excessive.

01:44:01.000 Good evening.

01:44:04.000 February 3rd, 2023 began like any other midwestern day, but in a heartbeat, everything changed.

01:44:12.000 I'm Trent Conaway, the proud mayor of East Palestine, Ohio.

01:44:22.000 Looks like a Gamorian guard.

01:44:23.000 When the train derailed, spewing flames and toxic chemicals to our town, faced a disaster unlike we'd ever seen.

01:44:31.000 And in the chaos, we witnessed a clear contrast between leadership and incompetence.

01:44:37.000 Our first responders didn't hesitate.

01:44:40.000 They raced to the scene, they battled the flames, and evacuated our citizens.

01:44:46.000 And for that, I want to thank every one of them tonight.

01:44:57.000 Unfortunately, the Biden administration's federal response was much different.

01:45:03.000 It consisted almost entirely of meetings and press events.

01:45:06.000 They talked and talked, but they delivered little help.

01:45:10.000 Then there was the clear difference between former President Trump and President Biden.

01:45:15.000 For the longest time, the White House was silent.

01:45:18.000 And we never heard a word from Vice President Harris.

01:45:22.000 I guess we weren't their type of folks.

01:45:24.000 No Hollywood elites or Wall Street billionaires live in East Palestine.

01:45:29.000 Just hardworking Americans.

01:45:37.000 I don't love the resentment.

01:45:38.000 But Donald Trump cared.

01:45:40.000 First he called to ask permission to visit, not wanting to intrude.

01:45:44.000 And then he asked how he could help.

01:45:46.000 When he arrived with fresh pallets of drinking water, he met with everyone.

01:45:50.000 From first responders to local officials and residents.

01:45:54.000 He toured the derailment site.

01:45:56.000 He listened to us.

01:45:58.000 And he shared a meal with volunteers at a local McDonald's.

01:46:01.000 His presence was genuine.

01:46:03.000 His concern was real.

01:46:05.000 After a year of criticism, President Biden finally did show up.

01:46:10.000 His appearance was brief, forced, and scripted.

01:46:14.000 He met with a select few, and then left.

01:46:18.000 We needed so much, and he delivered so little.

01:46:22.000 I know a thing or two about train wrecks now, and let me tell you, that's what the Biden administration has been.

01:46:31.000 That's actually a good line.

01:46:35.000 I know a thing or two about train wrecks because a train blew up in my town.

01:46:41.000 We need to act.

01:46:43.000 We need a leader who values small town communities as much as big cities.

01:46:48.000 We need a president who loves all Americans.

01:46:53.000 True.

01:46:57.000 We need Donald J. Trump.

01:47:05.000 Yeah, I don't know. 0.97

01:47:11.000 Some of that stuff comes across a little wigger when it's like... You can almost imagine a black person saying, well, they don't give us enough time because we're just a bunch of black folk.

01:47:21.000 So I don't love the resentful attitude. 0.57

01:47:26.000 That's just me, though.

01:47:28.000 Feels good to be here.

01:47:29.000 The last time I was in Milwaukee, in this building, standing behind a podium was for the debate, and I stood on one leg for two hours.

01:47:38.000 Look at what could have been.

01:47:39.000 You guys might remember, I blew my Achilles the day before.

01:47:42.000 But to kick things off, I have a question for you, and I need your help answering so nice and so loud that everyone at home can hear you.

01:47:52.000 Are you ready?

01:47:54.000 Who will make America energy dominant? 0.99

01:48:01.000 Again, who will make America energy dominant?

01:48:07.000 Energy dominant?

01:48:09.000 Apache helicopter.

01:48:12.000 My dad came from a trailer park.

01:48:14.000 One more time loud enough to wake up Joe Biden.

01:48:17.000 Who will make America energy dominant? 0.99

01:48:23.000 That's right.

01:48:24.000 When President Trump unleashes American energy, we unleash American prosperity and we ensure our national security.

01:48:34.000 Serving as a governor with President Trump was like having a beautiful breeze at our back.

01:48:41.000 He cut taxes and he cut red tape.

01:48:44.000 Serving as a governor under Joe Biden has been like a gale force wind in our face.

01:48:51.000 Biden's war on energy hurts every American because the cost of energy is in everything we use or touch every day.

01:48:59.000 True.

01:49:00.000 Biden's red tape has raised the price of the gas in your car, the cost of food on your table, the clothes on your back, and it's even raised your rent.

01:49:11.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

01:49:12.000 What does Iran have to say about this?

01:49:30.000 And the day that Biden halted permits for clean U.S.

01:49:34.000 natural gas export facilities, just think about the party they must have thrown that night at the president.

01:49:41.000 Because Biden's policies are making Russia and Iran filthy rich.

01:49:48.000 Yeah, I guess I can understand that angle.

01:49:49.000 They're using that money to fund wars and terrorism against our allies.

01:49:54.000 Like Israel. 0.96

01:49:55.000 At home, Biden is acting like a dictator.

01:49:59.000 He's using mandates to shut down reliable base load electricity.

01:50:03.000 That's why your electric bills have soared upwards as our nation's electric grid reliability spirals downward.

01:50:13.000 Four more years of Joe will usher an era of Biden brownouts and blackouts.

01:50:19.000 Imagine no electricity for your fridge, your lights, or air conditioning.

01:50:25.000 President Trump will ensure that there is power for you, and importantly, that we have the power as the United States to beat China in the AI arms race.

01:50:37.000 I love his face.

01:50:40.000 His face is beautiful.

01:50:41.000 It's like a sculpture.

01:50:43.000 Looks like George Washington.

01:50:46.000 Look at his eyebrows.

01:50:46.000 This is what an American looks like.

01:50:51.000 That's an American.

01:50:52.000 I wish everyone at the convention looked like this.

01:51:12.000 Yes, President Trump will make sure that America is selling energy to our allies versus buying it from our adversaries.

01:51:20.000 Instead we get sweaty Rubio and these people speaking Spanish.

01:51:26.000 Innovation has always been the source of American greatness.

01:51:30.000 And President Trump champions innovation over regulation.

01:51:37.000 Last year,

01:51:39.000 Over that whole year, my wife Catherine and I traveled all across America.

01:51:45.000 As all of you know, it's rural America that feeds the world, that fuels the world, and defends the world.

01:51:53.000 Small towns with a huge impact, and rural America is Trump country!

01:52:05.000 In North Dakota, we know

01:52:07.000 We know one thing for sure, because we've seen him do it, and that's that the hardest-working president in American history is Donald J. Trump.

01:52:24.000 President Trump cares deeply about every American.

01:52:29.000 Rig workers, truck drivers, roughnecks, and yes, America's great farmers and ranchers. 1.00

01:52:37.000 President Trump cares deeply about you.

01:52:41.000 We know that he'll fight for us.

01:52:44.000 He'll fight for our families.

01:52:46.000 And we know one more thing.

01:52:48.000 He'll let all of you keep driving your gas-powered cars.

01:52:54.000 Let's go.

01:52:58.000 When President Trump unleashes energy dominance, he will make America affordable again.

01:53:04.000 He will make America strong again.

01:53:07.000 And when President Donald J. Trump and J.D.

01:53:10.000 Vance together, they will make America great again.

01:53:14.000 Yeah, I love his look, but the guy's like a typical rhino.

01:53:22.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome former counselor to President Donald J. Trump, Kellyanne Conway.

01:53:33.000 He's like, we need to unleash energy dominance and stop funding Iran. 0.70

01:53:38.000 We're making Iran rich so they can fund Hamas. 0.99

01:53:41.000 Good evening, patriots.

01:53:43.000 Eight years ago, Donald Trump shocked the system and defied the doubters to become the 45th president of the United States.

01:53:52.000 He didn't want fortune or fame, power and position.

01:53:57.000 He already had all of that.

01:53:59.000 Donald Trump and his family made enormous sacrifices to run and to serve as president.

01:54:06.000 He didn't need to do it.

01:54:07.000 He wanted to do it.

01:54:10.000 My relationship with Mr. Trump was forged under fire in a foxhole in 2016 after he asked me to be his campaign manager.

01:54:26.000 We had no idea that he was making history as the first successful presidential nominee ever to tap a woman to lead a campaign.

01:54:38.000 Tapped a woman, huh? 1.00

01:54:42.000 But that was a natural for Donald J. Trump.

01:54:43.000 Very rare in the GOP.

01:54:44.000 He had elevated women in New York real estate decades before when few people would. 0.93

01:54:51.000 One morning, I was in an early senior staff meeting in the White House, and as I glanced around the table, something caught my eye.

01:55:01.000 In that meeting were Sarah Huckabee Sanders, Mercedes Schlatt, Brooke Rollins, Ivanka Trump, and me.

01:55:11.000 I soon realized that among us, we have 19 children.

01:55:17.000 At the time, ages 2 through 16.

01:55:21.000 Show me a C-suite in America where five working moms of 19 young children could have the highest rank in the company and work alongside the president. 0.95

01:55:34.000 Is that really desirable, though?

01:55:40.000 In the Trump White House, we lived it.

01:55:43.000 Sure, he saw something in me and the other working moms that perhaps we did not see in ourselves.

01:55:50.000 But more importantly, he sees what's best and what's possible for millions of decent, hard-working Americans.

01:56:00.000 Now, eight years later, he and his family have made the sacrifice again for him to run and serve as president.

01:56:10.000 Donald Trump could be the envy of former presidents.

01:56:14.000 He's a billionaire who could play golf every day at his own golf courses.

01:56:20.000 He can enjoy a magnificent life with his incredible five children, his ten amazing grandchildren, and that extraordinary, elegant, beautiful, brilliant wife.

01:56:38.000 The former and future First Lady, Melania Trump.

01:56:45.000 Melania Trump is incredible. 0.92

01:56:47.000 She deserves a glazing. 1.00

01:56:49.000 He does not need to do this, but we need him to do this.

01:56:55.000 How often do we hear, I want Trump's policies without Trump's personality?

01:57:02.000 Well, good luck with that.

01:57:05.000 We don't get those policies without that personality.

01:57:15.000 Taking out al-Baghdadi and Soleimani, ending the ISIS caliphate, recalibrating trade deals, restoring sanity, growth, and fairness in our economy, making our southern border more secure and sovereign, supporting school choice, protecting life, respecting workers, backing our blue, our military, and our border patrol.

01:57:42.000 You get that through strength and toughness.

01:57:46.000 Weakness emboldens our adversaries, enables failure, and empowers evil.

01:57:55.000 The answer to weakness is strength.

01:57:58.000 The antidote to division is unity.

01:58:02.000 And the alternative to failure and incompetence, to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, is to send them packing and send Donald Trump and J.D.

01:58:12.000 Vance to the White House.

01:58:16.000 Is Don Jr.

01:58:17.000 about to speak?

01:58:23.000 If you know someone who is skeptical about the Republican Party, or who is cynical about politics, don't dismiss them.

01:58:33.000 Talk to them.

01:58:35.000 We win through addition, not division.

01:58:39.000 In Donald Trump's Republican Party, everyone is welcome.

01:58:49.000 We have been called deplorable, irredeemable, mega mega extremists, and worse.

01:58:59.000 But Donald Trump sees you for who you are.

01:59:02.000 You love your God, you love your family, and you love your country.

01:59:10.000 In 2024, there should be no more hidden, undercover Trump voters.

01:59:16.000 It's time to put that flag on your front porch.

01:59:20.000 That red hat on your head.

01:59:22.000 Because we don't cave, and we don't cower, and we do not capitulate.

01:59:27.000 Instead, we get up.

01:59:30.000 We show up.

01:59:32.000 We stand up, and we speak up.

01:59:38.000 Ladies and gentlemen, this is your movement.

01:59:42.000 This is your moment.

01:59:44.000 And this is the man I know and the president we need for four more years.

01:59:49.000 He picks the toughest fights and wins.

01:59:52.000 He has stood by me, and he will always stand up for you.

01:59:57.000 Thank you, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America.

02:00:01.000 Nice.

02:00:02.000 Yeah, pretty lame speech.

02:00:09.000 Not really a fan of Kellyanne Conway. 0.99

02:00:13.000 Yeah, that sucked. 0.93

02:00:16.000 Yeah, I mean, good day.

02:00:19.000 All in all, it's a good day so far.

02:00:21.000 It's good to hear the talk about illegal immigration.

02:00:23.000 Although, like I said... And here's the other problem.

02:00:29.000 Everybody recognizes that immigration is not a law enforcement problem.

02:00:34.000 It's a cultural and a social problem.

02:00:36.000 That's the big difference between me and the mainstream GOP.

02:00:40.000 Is the mainstream GOP does not oppose immigration in principle.

02:00:45.000 Because they don't believe that America has any concrete identity.

02:00:49.000 They think that America is just based on citizenship.

02:00:53.000 That's why they treat immigration like a legal matter.

02:00:57.000 Because the only violation is that they're not citizens.

02:01:00.000 So for them it's an issue of law enforcement because it's concerning legal citizenship.

02:01:06.000 They want to maintain the current levels of immigration as long as it's done legally.

02:01:10.000 And that's what they say.

02:01:11.000 They say we want immigration.

02:01:12.000 We desperately need immigration.

02:01:13.000 It just has to be legal.

02:01:15.000 Or they'll say we want to have merit-based immigration rather than family or chain migration.

02:01:22.000 So they don't actually oppose immigration in principle.

02:01:25.000 They're not against the effects of mass migration on culture and society.

02:01:29.000 They're only against immigration insofar as it's illegal because their conception of identity and America itself is a civic

02:01:40.000 Abstraction.

02:01:41.000 It's civic.

02:01:41.000 It's legalistic.

02:01:43.000 The Groypers say, of course, that immigration must be opposed in principle because it's changing the way America is. 1.00

02:01:49.000 America does have a distinct identity.

02:01:51.000 It's not just a legal framework.

02:01:53.000 It's not just the Constitution.

02:01:55.000 It's not a value set that anyone can adopt.

02:01:58.000 It's a culture.

02:01:59.000 It is ancestry.

02:02:00.000 It is language.

02:02:01.000 It is mannerisms, customs.

02:02:04.000 It is the fact that there's a genetic cluster of Europeans that were Christians.

02:02:10.000 So the problem that I see is that in 2016 it was build the wall, illegal immigration, but they also did talk quite a little bit, quite a lot about legal immigration.

02:02:21.000 Trump said we need to oppose even legal immigration or cut legal immigration because we need to give our workers a chance.

02:02:29.000 And it was a little bit more of an economic angle, but there was also a critique of mass immigration overall.

02:02:35.000 And my concern

02:02:37.000 Is that here we are eight years later, and it's still constrained.

02:02:41.000 It's still a law enforcement issue the way it's been for 50 years, because for 50 years, that's been the mantra, which is illegal immigration is bad, legal immigration is good.

02:02:51.000 We're a nation of immigrants, but you got to do it the right way. 0.99

02:02:54.000 As a matter of fact, legal immigrants are adversely affected by illegal immigration.

02:02:59.000 And that may sound like it's just one step away from our position, but it's not.

02:03:05.000 People think it's a matter of increments.

02:03:08.000 We need them to think both categories are bad.

02:03:10.000 But they don't think any immigration is bad. 0.94

02:03:12.000 They're just against the fact that it's not legal.

02:03:16.000 And that's because, again, they think America's an idea.

02:03:19.000 So the problem is we haven't come far enough on viewing immigration as threatening to the identity. 0.74

02:03:25.000 No one is coming up and saying, hey, our country's different because these people are not like us.

02:03:30.000 They're just saying, oh, they're terrorists or criminals.

02:03:33.000 Thank you.

02:03:33.000 So it's not really good enough.

02:03:35.000 I'm Congresswoman Luna and I represent the great people of Florida.

02:03:38.000 I'm not going to complain because I'm glad to hear him say deport them all and build the wall and stuff like that. 1.00

02:03:43.000 The greatness and strength of America are beacons of hope for countless lives around the world.

02:03:48.000 Our strength ensures our safety and security.

02:03:52.000 My husband and I knew this when we joined the Air Force.

02:03:55.000 But we don't preserve peace and stability by policing the world or by involving ourselves in every foreign conflict.

02:04:03.000 We preserve peace by commanding the world's respect, a respect that is earned through unparalleled military strength and firm, decisive leadership.

02:04:13.000 Over the past four years, the Biden administration has failed to uphold this standard.

02:04:17.000 They have misused our resources in foreign wars contrary to our national interests, and they have eroded the lethality and fighting culture of our armed forces.

02:04:27.000 The leadership that we need that respects our military and understands the true cost of war is only found in Donald Trump.

02:04:39.000 He will make America strong again.

02:04:42.000 He will fight for the American warfighter, the American people, and America's interests.

02:04:48.000 Hawks and globalist elites do not sway President Trump. 0.86

02:04:52.000 He knows the cost of military action like I do.

02:04:56.000 My husband was shot in combat by terrorists and continued to deploy in the fight against America's enemies.

02:05:02.000 I know the fear and anguish of waiting for news about a loved one in Israel's way and the pain of losing friends in combat.

02:05:10.000 President Trump knows what it means to put your life on the line.

02:05:14.000 Our service members and their families make immense sacrifices and they deserve a president who respects that sacrifice and who would lay down his own life in defense of this great nation.

02:05:28.000 Good to hear a globalist mention.

02:05:30.000 President Trump has demonstrated he's ready to do just that.

02:05:30.000 I haven't heard that once.

02:05:34.000 It is time that we all rise to his stature.

02:05:38.000 The world needs a strong America and America needs strong leadership.

02:05:42.000 President Trump will provide it.

02:05:49.000 Regardless of race, gender, color, or creed, I urge you to vote for Donald Trump and J.D.

02:05:55.000 Vance on November 5th.

02:06:00.000 She looks like she had a lot of work done.

02:06:02.000 Perfunctory.

02:06:02.000 Eh.

02:06:02.000 Adequate speech.

02:06:03.000 Yeah, so anyway, like I was saying, um...

02:06:20.000 So I do.

02:06:22.000 Don't get me wrong.

02:06:23.000 I like when they oppose illegal immigration, but the realignment has not occurred.

02:06:29.000 And that that's really the problem.

02:06:30.000 And the root of it, like I said, is that conservatives have this idea that America is an idea.

02:06:37.000 They say that America is the Constitution, America's freedom.

02:06:42.000 They say that America is abstract, but that's not true.

02:06:46.000 They say that what makes America great is our freedom.

02:06:50.000 That's not true.

02:06:51.000 What makes America great is our people.

02:06:54.000 The country is the people.

02:06:55.000 The country is not the systems.

02:06:58.000 The country is the people.

02:07:00.000 And you know that because other people do great things.

02:07:03.000 North Korea has math olympiads.

02:07:06.000 North Korea has a nuclear program. 0.97

02:07:09.000 Because even though their system sucks, their system is inefficient, their people are talented. 0.99

02:07:15.000 Same with Russia. 0.79

02:07:16.000 The Soviet Union had a terrible system, but they had the best chess players.

02:07:20.000 They had the best

02:07:22.000 In 2019, President Donald Trump awarded me the Medal of Honor for my service in Fallujah during the Iraq War.

02:07:43.000 Today, I speak across the country on behalf of our military services, and I ask parents, I look them right in the eye, like I'm looking at you, and I ask them, will you give America your sons and daughters to serve in the greatest force for good this world has ever seen?

02:08:05.000 The United States military.

02:08:08.000 Come on now.

02:08:08.000 Grow up.

02:08:09.000 Going to war in Iraq was a force for good? 0.96

02:08:13.000 No.

02:08:13.000 Sorry, but no.

02:08:27.000 Well, it's changed in the last couple of years.

02:08:31.000 Yeah, decades.

02:08:32.000 Now they say, what about the 13 heroes we lost at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan?

02:08:40.000 Now they say, what about the desperate civilians falling off the transport airplanes?

02:08:49.000 Now they ask, what about the American citizens we left behind for the enemy?

02:08:57.000 Shouldn't have been there.

02:08:58.000 Shouldn't have been there in the first place.

02:09:00.000 They say to me, under Biden-Harris, we don't believe you.

02:09:06.000 They no longer see their sacrifice as worthwhile?

02:09:10.000 That their service makes us all better off?

02:09:14.000 It doesn't!

02:09:16.000 Are you better off than you were four years ago?

02:09:19.000 I'll tell you what.

02:09:21.000 We're all going to answer that question in November.

02:09:24.000 Here's something for you.

02:09:26.000 Let's ask it the other way around.

02:09:28.000 Let's ask, are our enemies better off than they were four years ago?

02:09:34.000 Oh my gosh.

02:09:50.000 Yeah, they're the only aggressors.

02:09:51.000 Yeah, Israel's not an aggressor.

02:09:53.000 Sure.

02:10:14.000 Under their watch, a record number of American embassies have been forced to evacuate.

02:10:21.000 And military recruitment has plunged, and confidence in the armed forces has reached a 20-year low.

02:10:30.000 Under President Donald Trump, our enemies will know that American power is as decisive as it is overwhelming.

02:10:46.000 Our enemies are here, not there.

02:10:47.000 If you provoke the United States of America, we will hurt you!

02:10:54.000 I love this kind of rhetoric, though, even though it's totally zogged up. 0.99

02:10:57.000 I love when people say, American power will kill you.

02:11:00.000 I do love that. 0.99

02:11:01.000 I am a sucker, though, for rhetoric like that. 0.76

02:11:02.000 I just love it. 0.99

02:11:04.000 We will hurt you for generations.

02:11:07.000 It's awesome.

02:11:21.000 Donald Trump loves America.

02:11:26.000 He too has bled for the nation that he loves.

02:11:31.000 May God bless America.

02:11:33.000 May God bless our Gold Star families.

02:11:36.000 Thank you for what you've given this country.

02:11:43.000 And may God 0.81

02:11:45.000 That's just ridiculous. 0.72

02:12:15.000 I love—military people are great people, but the military as an institution is being instrumentalized by foreigners. 1.00

02:12:24.000 So, that's the problem.

02:12:26.000 Because military people are—they're good people, but going to war in Afghanistan was not good for us.

02:12:33.000 Look at all these great Americans here.

02:12:37.000 Well, good evening, my fellow Americans.

02:12:40.000 My name is Scotty Neal, and I'm a proud United States Army Green Beret veteran.

02:12:48.000 Thank you.

02:12:50.000 And the most important part is I'm a proud veteran entrepreneur.

02:12:56.000 Almost 23 years ago, Al-Qaeda declared war on America September 11, 2001.

02:13:04.000 There we go.

02:13:05.000 Weeks later, Green Berets from the 5th Special Forces Group became the first Americans in uniform to deploy to Afghanistan, and I was one of them.

02:13:18.000 Thank you.

02:13:21.000 Deep in enemy territory, some of us rode on horses.

02:13:26.000 Some of us went further behind the lines to track down the terrorists who killed our fellow Americans.

02:13:33.000 Today they call us the Horse Soldiers.

02:13:39.000 Thank you.

02:13:42.000 For the next 17 years, we were on the forefront of this country in Iraq, in Africa.

02:13:49.000 Again and again we deployed for our fellow Americans.

02:13:54.000 Some of us sacrificed our bodies.

02:13:57.000 Some of us sacrificed our lives for the American people.

02:14:01.000 And for me,

02:14:03.000 America was worth it.

02:14:08.000 It wasn't for America. 0.94

02:14:10.000 We invaded Iraq for Israel. 0.97

02:14:12.000 Now, after leaving the military, I wanted to live the American dream I had been defending.

02:14:19.000 And I wanted to start a business with my friends that I served with.

02:14:25.000 Today, my company is known as American Freedom Distillery, and we make horse soldier bourbon.

02:14:37.000 We are building our forever home in the great Commonwealth of Kentucky.

02:14:43.000 That's right, where true bourbon comes from in a little small town called Somerset.

02:14:48.000 Please come visit us.

02:14:51.000 All of our ingredients are made here in the United States of America.

02:14:58.000 We ensure we hire veterans.

02:15:02.000 That's good they hired veterans.

02:15:04.000 We want to prove that America remains the land of opportunity for those brave enough to reach out and grab it.

02:15:16.000 But tragically, almost three years ago, my fellow veterans and I recoiled at the bloody anarchy of President Biden's withdrawal from Afghanistan.

02:15:28.000 If it were up to people like this we'd still be there.

02:15:31.000 We saw weakness and chaos.

02:15:34.000 We saw 13 of our brothers and sisters lose their lives.

02:15:41.000 Most of us veterans who served got phone calls from those courageous Afghanistans that we fought with in the mountains as they were pleading with us not to leave them behind.

02:15:53.000 Should we be there forever?

02:15:54.000 Throughout our careers, we never had regrets about our service.

02:16:00.000 But this moral injury caused many of us to ask, why did we serve if this was the outcome?

02:16:10.000 But despite this dark chapter, I know America is good.

02:16:15.000 We're still the shiny city on the hill that everybody wants to come to.

02:16:24.000 But we need a president.

02:16:26.000 With a record of making our country better and not worse.

02:16:31.000 And that's why I'm voting for Donald Trump.

02:16:41.000 He encourages patriotic Americans to celebrate the country they love.

02:16:48.000 He supports anyone brave enough to reach out for the American dream and to fight for it.

02:16:56.000 And he's the only candidate in this race who embodies the American determination and decisiveness.

02:17:05.000 Let's make America strong again.

02:17:14.000 Let's vote for Donald Trump.

02:17:20.000 Thank you.

02:17:22.000 The oppresso liber.

02:17:25.000 God bless America.

02:17:38.000 I think they started to attack the fleeing Afghanistan soldiers.

02:17:44.000 One, so that we wouldn't actually leave.

02:17:46.000 So that it would renew our mandate in Afghanistan.

02:17:50.000 So that we couldn't leave in disgrace.

02:17:51.000 But two, it was so that we could never exit any other war.

02:17:58.000 Because we lost in Afghanistan.

02:17:59.000 We lost, okay?

02:18:01.000 We can't nation-build.

02:18:02.000 There's no enemy there.

02:18:04.000 There's no state there.

02:18:05.000 Like, there's nothing stationary.

02:18:07.000 It's all these competing ethnic tribes and sectarian conflict.

02:18:13.000 So when would it have been an appropriate time to leave Afghanistan?

02:18:16.000 They say, well, we pulled out in a disastrous way.

02:18:20.000 And they say, well, it should have been negotiated.

02:18:22.000 If it was a negotiation, they would have strung us along.

02:18:25.000 We'd still be there, just like we're still in Iraq, just like we're still in Syria, just like we're still in North Africa.

02:18:32.000 So I think they imposed a price to say, you can never leave.

02:18:36.000 You can never leave these wars.

02:18:38.000 There's no clean way to do it.

02:18:40.000 So therefore, you never can do it.

02:18:43.000 So we should just be glad that we're out.

02:18:45.000 Why were we in Afghanistan for 20 years?

02:18:47.000 We killed Bin Laden, he was in Pakistan, not Afghanistan. 0.69

02:18:53.000 Here's our guy.

02:18:57.000 07's for the man.

02:19:01.000 King Trump.

02:19:09.000 I hate this song though.

02:19:18.000 I know he loves it.

02:19:19.000 I love James Brown, I just don't like this song.

02:19:22.000 Cute.

02:19:38.000 Little Marco.

02:19:53.000 Who do we have today?

02:19:54.000 We got Glenn Youngkin, Don Jr., Little Marco, Greg Abbott.

02:20:02.000 Who else is in the booth?

02:20:06.000 And Lauren Boebert.

02:20:07.000 Lauren Boebert.

02:20:13.000 Yesterday was Marjorie, today it's Lauren Boebert.

02:20:20.000 He looks good tonight.

02:20:26.000 He looked a little tired on Monday, but he looks really good today.

02:20:31.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Kimberly Guilfoyle.

02:20:34.000 Oh.

02:20:40.000 I really don't like her.

02:20:50.000 Good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

02:20:53.000 Like you, I have spent much of my time the last few days in prayer.

02:21:00.000 And I know that God has put an armor of protection over Donald Trump.

02:21:08.000 Love it.

02:21:09.000 Sign of the cross.

02:21:11.000 We are all reminded that love for our nation and the beauty of life itself transcends all hatred and political divisions.

02:21:22.000 I stand before you tonight more convinced than ever this is the most important election in our lifetime.

02:21:34.000 She looks rough, man.

02:21:35.000 Rough.

02:21:56.000 And she's so much older than Don Jr.

02:21:58.000 I don't know what that's all about.

02:21:58.000 This is not just a choice between Republicans and Democrats.

02:22:01.000 She must have a great personality. 0.96

02:22:03.000 This is a choice between safety or chaos, wealth or poverty, national sovereignty or open borders.

02:22:13.000 National sovereignty mentioned?

02:22:14.000 This election is a choice between Joe Biden's vision for American weakness and Donald Trump's vision of American greatness.

02:22:29.000 Donald Trump will once again make our country strong, safe, and prosperous.

02:22:37.000 He will make America feared by our adversaries and respected by our friends.

02:22:44.000 Like Israel. 0.96

02:22:48.000 And most importantly, he will always put America first.

02:22:58.000 Delivery not good, but America first mentioned.

02:22:59.000 After 40 years of Joe Biden's disastrous America Last Agenda, our country is more dangerous, vulnerable, and impoverished than anyone had thought possible.

02:23:13.000 President Trump handed Biden a booming economy and a strong nation.

02:23:21.000 All Joe had to do was leave it alone and take a nap.

02:23:31.000 But Joe just couldn't help himself.

02:23:35.000 Joe Biden cannot lead America.

02:23:39.000 He cannot even lead himself off a stage.

02:23:47.000 All right.

02:23:48.000 Now Americans are drowning in inflation.

02:23:51.000 Insanity spreads like a cancer in our schools.

02:23:54.000 We are closer to World War III than any time in my life.

02:23:58.000 And we are facing an unprecedented invasion of millions of illegal aliens across our southern border.

02:24:08.000 Rioters and looters go free, while Biden and the Democrats persecute American heroes like Donald Trump!

02:24:23.000 Tens of millions of Americans are made to feel like enemies in our own country.

02:24:30.000 An enemy for wanting to defend our border, for not wanting our children indoctrinated in school, for not wanting to erase our history, for praying to our God, saying what we think, and fighting for what we believe.

02:24:48.000 It is no wonder that the heroes who stormed the beaches of Normandy and faced down communism sadly say they don't recognize our country anymore.

02:24:59.000 This is not an accident.

02:25:02.000 The powerful elites in the swamp will say anything to crush and destroy the America First movement.

02:25:10.000 But we will never give up and neither will Donald J. Trump.

02:25:26.000 I know I speak for patriots everywhere when I say we are fed up.

02:25:31.000 We are outraged about sex trafficking and drug trafficking across our southern border.

02:25:36.000 We are fed up with the forever wars.

02:25:39.000 We are done being told by the radical left to sit down, shut up, and obey.

02:25:44.000 The Democrat vision for America is governed by fear, hatred, and political oppression.

02:25:53.000 Our vision is defined by a love of our country, love for our fellow citizens, and our love of freedom!

02:26:11.000 In our vision, we will secure the southern border and deport the violent criminal aliens once and for all! 1.00

02:26:29.000 In our vision, America will combat foreign aggressors and ensure our service members are protected, not abandoned, as they carry out their dangerous missions abroad.

02:26:43.000 Because we know we can only have peace through strength.

02:26:54.000 We will restore an era of national pride where freedom of speech is respected and cancel culture is ended.

02:27:07.000 Where high school girls only compete with other girls, not biological men. 0.99

02:27:22.000 Where struggling cities never put criminal, illegal aliens above our heroic veterans and brave law enforcement.

02:27:31.000 I'm still falling asleep, it's not helping.

02:27:36.000 Where our streets are not ruled by gangs and rioters, but governed by law and order.

02:27:43.000 Where students are freed from failing schools and corrupt teachers' unions through universal school choice.

02:27:57.000 Always with the school choice.

02:27:59.000 Okay.

02:28:29.000 What is she doing?

02:28:30.000 Why is she talking like that?

02:28:45.000 And I want Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and all of the radical Democrats to know this.

02:28:52.000 We will not be bullied into obedience.

02:28:55.000 We will not cower in silence.

02:28:58.000 We will fight for America because we love America.

02:29:05.000 Why is she talking like that?

02:29:05.000 Why?

02:29:12.000 I don't like that.

02:29:19.000 She thinks she's MLK. 1.00

02:29:20.000 Bro thinks she's MLK.

02:29:31.000 I stand before you as a working mother, a former prosecutor, a Catholic, and a proud Latina!

02:29:41.000 Love, I wish they would talk more about being Catholic.

02:29:46.000 I think they play that down because it's all evangelicals.

02:29:50.000 I know the measure of the man that stands before us.

02:29:55.000 Donald Trump will never stop fighting for you.

02:29:58.000 So join me in voting for Donald J. Trump our president again.

02:30:21.000 Victory is in our sights.

02:30:24.000 America's future is in our hands.

02:30:26.000 America's destiny is in our control.

02:30:30.000 And America's prosperity is in our hearts and souls.

02:30:35.000 America, this is your moment.

02:30:38.000 Will you stand for President Trump?

02:30:41.000 Rise up!

02:30:42.000 Rise up!

02:30:44.000 Ladies and gentlemen, lovers of liberty and freedom and the American dream, this is our last chance to make America great again!

02:30:56.000 God bless you!

02:30:57.000 God bless President Trump!

02:30:59.000 And may God bless America!

02:31:03.000 Oh my gosh!

02:31:08.000 That was horrible.

02:31:12.000 Jeez.

02:31:14.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Congressman Michael Waltz of Florida.

02:31:19.000 I'm glad that's over.

02:31:25.000 Jeez.

02:31:27.000 That was hard to watch.

02:31:29.000 Another hard watch.

02:31:32.000 I am so honored.

02:31:40.000 I don't know who this guy is.

02:31:45.000 Thank you.

02:31:49.000 Thank you.

02:31:53.000 Hello, patriots.

02:31:57.000 I am so honored to stand before you as a 27-year Army veteran and the first Green Beret ever elected to Congress.

02:32:08.000 And I'm joined tonight by my beautiful wife, Julia, who, oh by the way, has more combat tours than I do.

02:32:18.000 Folks, we have deployed all over the Middle East, all over Africa, all over Afghanistan, and I have never in my lifetime seen the world falling apart like it is under Joe Biden.

02:32:33.000 And that's because under President Trump,

02:32:36.000 We had a president who defeated ISIS, broke Iran, stood with Israel, always stood with our allies, made China pay.

02:32:49.000 You didn't see any spy balloons under President Trump, did you?

02:32:54.000 He deterred Russia. 0.96

02:32:57.000 You know what he told Putin?

02:33:00.000 You try anything and I'll take the tops off the Kremlin.

02:33:04.000 And he didn't dare, did he?

02:33:06.000 He did under Obama.

02:33:07.000 He did under Biden.

02:33:08.000 But not under Donald J. Trump.

02:33:10.000 That's horrifying.

02:33:11.000 He defused North Korea.

02:33:14.000 And importantly, he got our hostages home and didn't pay billions of dollars to get our Americans back.

02:33:26.000 He threatened war with Russia.

02:33:27.000 Oh, awesome.

02:33:27.000 And here's my favorite part about Donald Trump, the Commander-in-Chief.

02:33:32.000 He sat across the table from the bureaucrats and the generals and said, if you don't give our troops what they need, you know what he told the generals?

02:33:44.000 You're fired!

02:33:46.000 You're out of here!

02:33:47.000 We're cleaning house!

02:33:49.000 Everything takes too long, costs twice as much, and delivers half of what our troops need.

02:33:55.000 And what do we have today?

02:33:56.000 What do we have today with President Biden?

02:33:59.000 What's he focused on?

02:34:02.000 He's focused on pronouns.

02:34:06.000 He's focused on renaming bases.

02:34:09.000 He's focused on DEI.

02:34:11.000 And here's my favorite.

02:34:13.000 He's focused on building electric tanks.

02:34:16.000 Has anybody seen any charging stations in the Middle East for Biden's electric tanks?

02:34:24.000 And here's what I can tell you straight up, in combat.

02:34:29.000 Our enemy's bullets, listen to me folks, our enemy's bullets could give a damn about black, white, or brown, or about religion, or about gender, or about anything else.

02:34:42.000 The only colors that matter in the foxhole are the red, white, and blue, baby.

02:34:47.000 That's the only thing that matters.

02:34:49.000 That's the only thing our military should care about, and that's the only thing our fellow soldiers care about, and that's the only thing President Trump cares about.

02:35:00.000 Yeah, I'm glad the soldiers don't care about God or their people. 0.97

02:35:04.000 They just need to kill. 0.99

02:35:06.000 They just need to kill for money. 1.00

02:35:08.000 They don't even give a shit about religion or God. 1.00

02:35:12.000 Who needs God or race when we're going to kill for America? 1.00

02:35:24.000 The 13 Gold Star families have to relive it every day.

02:35:29.000 The ones that lost their sons and daughters that disgraceful day.

02:35:33.000 Biden won't even take their calls.

02:35:36.000 He calls it an outstanding success.

02:35:39.000 He won't even take a meeting with him while I called President Trump.

02:35:44.000 We talked about it, and he said, Michael, I would love to meet them.

02:35:49.000 Get them up here.

02:35:50.000 Get them up here to Bedminster.

02:35:51.000 Was that an Israel flag?

02:35:52.000 I thought I saw that in the background.

02:35:54.000 He was scheduled, folks, he was scheduled, hear me on this, he was scheduled to spend an hour with them.

02:36:01.000 You know how long he spent?

02:36:03.000 He spent six hours with them.

02:36:08.000 He met each one.

02:36:11.000 He listened.

02:36:13.000 He cared.

02:36:14.000 One of the moms kind of leaned over to me and she said, do you think he'll sign a picture of my son?

02:36:22.000 I said, oh, hell yeah, he will.

02:36:24.000 Please ask.

02:36:25.000 He will be happy to.

02:36:27.000 And he spent hours more.

02:36:28.000 And if that wasn't enough, he then has him up to dinner.

02:36:35.000 And at the start of the dinner, he promised them this.

02:36:38.000 When he gets back in the White House, he will release all the tapes

02:36:44.000 All the videos, all the records, all the emails, and give these families the accountability and the transparency that they deserve.

02:36:54.000 Not gonna happen.

02:36:54.000 And that they will never get from Joe Biden.

02:36:57.000 Not gonna happen.

02:37:05.000 Rick Grinnell is gonna be the Secretary of State.

02:37:08.000 He extradited Assange.

02:37:09.000 And then God bless this man.

02:37:10.000 This is why I love this man so much.

02:37:14.000 He is a good man.

02:37:16.000 I do love that.

02:37:34.000 And said this was the best thing that had happened to them since they had lost their sons.

02:37:41.000 That's really nice.

02:37:42.000 That night with President Trump.

02:37:45.000 Mr. President... Mr. President, you helped them heal.

02:37:59.000 And I will forever, and they will be forever, and America will forever be grateful to you for that.

02:38:09.000 He really cares, you know.

02:38:11.000 He's a good man.

02:38:16.000 Patriots, that's the Donald Trump that I've come to know.

02:38:21.000 That's the Donald Trump and the Commander-in-Chief we all know.

02:38:25.000 That's the Donald Trump the media never wants you to see.

02:38:31.000 That is the Donald Trump we must have as Commander-in-Chief back in the White House this November.

02:38:37.000 We need it.

02:38:38.000 The country needs it.

02:38:40.000 The world needs it.

02:38:41.000 Because we will once again have peace through America's strength.

02:38:46.000 God bless you.

02:38:47.000 I salute you.

02:38:51.000 Let's go fight, fight, fight, and let's win.

02:38:57.000 That was a really nice story about the parents.

02:39:03.000 He's a good man.

02:39:04.000 He's a unifier.

02:39:05.000 He brings people together.

02:39:06.000 I'm Jim McCollum.

02:39:07.000 I'm the father of Marine Lance Corporal Riley James McCollum.

02:39:12.000 And I'm here to speak for him.

02:39:21.000 My name's Alicia Lopez.

02:39:33.000 I'm Herman Lopez, and we're the parents of our son, Hunter Lopez, a U.S.

02:39:37.000 Marine stationed in Camp Pendleton, San Diego, California, who passed away on August 26, 2021, in Kabul, Afghanistan.

02:39:47.000 My name is Abby Sanchez, and I am the voice for my brother, Corporal Humberto Sanchez.

02:39:53.000 My name is Coral Griseno, and I am Corporal Humberto Sanchez's mother.

02:40:00.000 My name is Stephen Nakui.

02:40:02.000 I'm here for my son, Kareem Nakooey.

02:40:07.000 I'm here today to give my son a voice.

02:40:13.000 My name is Cheryl Jules.

02:40:15.000 I am Sergeant Nicole Gee's aunt.

02:40:18.000 She was a U.S. 0.98

02:40:18.000 Marine. 0.98

02:40:18.000 See, why was she there? 0.98

02:40:20.000 Why is a young girl in Afghanistan? 1.00

02:40:23.000 Why was that good for America?

02:40:25.000 And I'm here for Sergeant Nicole Gee, United States Marine, who was killed in the Afghanistan exit.

02:40:31.000 They shouldn't have died because they should have never been there.

02:40:34.000 And especially a young girl.

02:40:35.000 I'm here to give a voice to my son, my best friend, Staff Sergeant Taylor Hoover.

02:40:44.000 And my name's Darren Hoover, and I'm here to give voice as well for our son, Staff Sergeant Taylor Hoover.

02:40:52.000 That's such a waste.

02:40:53.000 When we started hearing that the Taliban was moving in, that there wasn't more military being deployed, and that they had decided that the Taliban was our security, that was when I became terrified.

02:41:08.000 They were just kind of left there, hung out to dry.

02:41:13.000 I was at work, and I heard about it.

02:41:23.000 Instantly, had that just chill go through me, and I started sending messages.

02:41:31.000 I'm talking to people, I'm calling his girlfriend, I'm saying, well, have you heard from him?

02:41:35.000 Calling his sisters, have you heard from him?

02:41:37.000 You know, we're texting, we're saying, please, just send us a text.

02:41:42.000 Whatever.

02:41:43.000 Just let us know that you're okay.

02:41:44.000 When all the explosions went off, I had messaged her and I said, hey, you know, I know you can't say anything, but you know, just an emoji.

02:41:52.000 Just a bubble.

02:41:58.000 And then, 3.30 in the morning that night, I got the knock on the door.

02:42:04.000 You know, there's no other reason two Marines are standing on your door.

02:42:09.000 Here's the problem.

02:42:10.000 Nobody is questioning why they were there in the first place.

02:42:13.000 They should have not been there.

02:42:15.000 Why were we in Afghanistan for 20 years?

02:42:20.000 They talk about the withdrawal was the problem.

02:42:22.000 The problem was the invasion and the continued occupation.

02:42:27.000 The loss of life.

02:42:32.000 The critique should be we should have not been there.

02:42:39.000 It's a subtle difference, but it's a very important difference.

02:42:43.000 And I wish that's what they would critique both parties for.

02:42:47.000 Trump should have brought him home.

02:42:50.000 Trump should have brought him home from Iraq and Afghanistan.

02:43:10.000 That was... It wasn't what I was expecting.

02:43:16.000 You know, this guy's sitting across from me on that tarmac, and he keeps looking at his watch.

02:43:22.000 Biden did not want to be there.

02:43:23.000 I don't know what he wanted to do, but he did not want to be there.

02:43:26.000 He looked at his watch multiple times.

02:43:28.000 I saw it three times.

02:43:29.000 He didn't say anything about Riley.

02:43:32.000 And to this day, he has yet to say those 13 kids' names.

02:43:38.000 And that makes me so upset because those kids were serving their country.

02:43:43.000 Those kids, they were giving their life for this country.

02:43:46.000 And I always said they were thinking that their commander in chief was going to have their back because they were fighting for this country.

02:43:55.000 And that didn't happen.

02:43:56.000 The administration, the White House, our president has never once mentioned their names.

02:44:01.000 Not one of them.

02:44:02.000 Honestly, I don't feel like Joe Biden cared.

02:44:07.000 He just had no empathy for us at all.

02:44:10.000 I do think incompetence played a huge factor in what happened.

02:44:18.000 Bad decision.

02:44:19.000 People need to question why. 0.97

02:44:20.000 Americans like this are the ones getting screwed over and their kids are being fed to Afghanistan. 0.94

02:44:28.000 Nobody's questioning that arrangement. 1.00

02:44:31.000 These are mostly white people that the country is totally abandoned and consigned to racial suicide. 0.98

02:44:36.000 We fully understand we can't bring back our kids.

02:44:39.000 But there are

02:45:00.000 There are thousands and thousands more out there that are going to come home the same way if something doesn't change.

02:45:06.000 We're the United States of America.

02:45:07.000 We can do better by our men and women that are risking their lives for this country.

02:45:11.000 We can do better for them than that.

02:45:19.000 To this day, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have never mentioned these fallen soldiers' names.

02:45:26.000 President Trump will never forget them.

02:45:30.000 It's a big military recruitment ad.

02:45:32.000 That's the most sinister part.

02:45:34.000 They died in Afghanistan, and this is being used to recruit more people to go fight these wars that aren't for America. 0.87

02:45:41.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the stage the gold star families of our fallen heroes.

02:46:32.000 Hello, America! 0.96

02:46:35.000 I'm Christy Shamblin.

02:46:37.000 My daughter-in-law, Sergeant Nicole Leanne Gee.

02:46:53.000 She was a United States Marine, and she was killed at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan alongside 12 of her brothers and sister-in-arms.

02:47:05.000 While Joe Biden has refused to recognize their sacrifice, Donald Trump spent six hours in Bedminster with us.

02:47:29.000 He allowed us to grieve.

02:47:31.000 He allowed us to remember our heroes.

02:47:36.000 Donald Trump knew all of our children's names.

02:47:40.000 He knew their stories.

02:47:43.000 And he spoke to us in a way that made us feel understood, like he knew our kids.

02:47:52.000 He carried, Donald Trump carried the weight for a few hours with me.

02:48:00.000 Yeah.

02:48:14.000 And for the first time since Nicole's death, I felt I wasn't alone in my grief.

02:48:23.000 Thank you.

02:48:32.000 I had expected to meet an arrogant politician.

02:48:37.000 Instead, I met a man who had empathy for us.

02:48:42.000 He was compassionate and he spent time with us because he knew it would make us feel better.

02:48:51.000 Thank you, President Trump.

02:49:07.000 I'm Cheryl Jules, Nicole's aunt.

02:49:11.000 Joe Biden said the withdrawal from Afghanistan was an extraordinary success.

02:49:20.000 An extraordinary success.

02:49:23.000 Look at our faces.

02:49:26.000 Look at our pain.

02:49:27.000 And our heartbreak.

02:49:30.000 And look at our rage.

02:49:33.000 That was not an extraordinary success.

02:49:37.000 The humiliation of our nation was not an extraordinary success.

02:49:51.000 Joe Biden may have forgotten that our children died, but we have not forgotten.

02:49:56.000 Donald Trump has not forgotten.

02:50:27.000 Joe Biden owes the men and women that served in Afghanistan a debt of gratitude and an apology.

02:50:44.000 Donald Trump loves this country and will never forget the sacrifice and bravery of our service members.

02:50:50.000 Join us in putting him back in the White House.

02:51:06.000 I'm Alicia Lopez, and this is my husband, Herman.

02:51:11.000 Our son, Corporal Hunter Lopez, whose name Joe Biden has refused to say out loud, was killed on August 26, 2021.

02:51:22.000 He died during Joe Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

02:51:29.000 Hunter was 22 years old and planned to come home to California

02:51:35.000 After his tour, to follow in our footsteps.

02:51:40.000 Herman and I work for the Riverside County Sheriff's Office.

02:51:55.000 And our family has a tradition of service in law enforcement.

02:52:09.000 Hunter was excited to carry it on.

02:52:13.000 Instead, in the nearly three years since Hunter's been gone, there has been silence.

02:52:21.000 Silence from that empty space at the dinner table, where Hunter would have joined his brothers and sister and us for family gatherings.

02:52:34.000 And there has been a deafening silence from the Biden and Harris administration.

02:52:45.000 Despite our pleas for answers and accountability, they have pushed us away and tried to silence us.

02:52:56.000 The Biden administration has not owned up to the bad decisions.

02:53:02.000 Thank you.

02:53:29.000 When Hunter and the other service members' bodies were returned to the U.S.

02:53:32.000 in Dover, Delaware, Joe Biden met the plane.

02:53:36.000 But he made the occasion more about his son, lost to cancer, than our sons and daughters, lost on his watch.

02:53:43.000 Worse than that, he has never said their names out loud.

02:53:47.000 And during last month's debate, he claimed no service members have died during his administration.

02:54:00.000 None.

02:54:01.000 That hurt us all deeply.

02:54:04.000 So Alicia and I are here to say the names of all 13 service members who lost their lives... All 13 service members who lost their lives at Abbey Gate.

02:54:26.000 David Espinoza.

02:54:35.000 Nicole Gee Taylor Hoover Ryan C. Knauss Riley McCollum

02:55:06.000 Dylan Morola Kareem Nakoui Degan Page Johany Pichardo Humberto Sanchez

02:55:42.000 Jared Schmitz Maxine Sobiak And my son, Hunter Lopez.

02:56:36.000 Joe Biden has to go.

02:56:41.000 He failed the American people.

02:56:43.000 He failed the Afghan people and our military service members.

02:56:49.000 He failed our family and he failed Hunter.

02:56:53.000 Donald Trump has a proven record of keeping the peace and honoring those in uniform.

02:57:27.000 All of us on this stage recognize the efforts of Mr. Trump.

02:57:33.000 We know this firsthand.

02:57:34.000 We've experienced it.

02:57:36.000 Whenever we've met with him, he has demonstrated compassion.

02:57:40.000 He has joined us on our mission for answers.

02:57:43.000 And he has given hope to our extended Gold Star family.

02:57:57.000 Now we have another son serving in the army.

02:58:10.000 And we do not trust Joe Biden with his life.

02:58:17.000 We have faith that Donald Trump to lead our military.

02:58:23.000 Please join us in supporting Donald Trump for president and commander-in-chief.

02:58:55.000 There's a guy on the left.

02:58:56.000 Oh, no.

02:59:11.000 Oh, no.

02:59:11.000 Oh, it's Israel night.

02:59:25.000 Here we go.

02:59:26.000 Come on! 0.61

02:59:26.000 Alright, for the flag! 0.61

02:59:26.000 Not today, Hamas! 0.61

02:59:26.000 Come on! 0.61

02:59:51.000 Oh, the Jewish fraternity? 0.99

02:59:53.000 They're all Israeli? 0.97

02:59:54.000 That's crazy. 0.62

03:00:17.000 The Frat Bro Uprising! 1.00

03:00:18.000 With their Israel flags.

03:00:20.000 Yeah, the Israeli flag.

03:00:21.000 There it is.

03:00:46.000 They went out there and said, well, they were primarily there for Israel. 0.91

03:00:49.000 We hate terrorists.

03:00:51.000 Is it 2003 again? 1.00

03:00:52.000 How stupid can we be? 0.99

03:00:58.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome country music star Brian Kelly and Anthony McGehee and Praise Motivated Choir. 1.00

03:01:11.000 It's 2003!

03:01:12.000 Have we learned nothing?

03:01:13.000 Awesome!

03:01:14.000 Let's go!

03:01:14.000 Awesome!

03:01:15.000 Awesome! 1.00

03:01:39.000 So we're gonna have a black choir, American flag t-shirts, country music, fuck terrorists, Jewish fraternity. 1.00

03:01:53.000 Yeehaw! 1.00

03:01:53.000 Alright! 1.00

03:01:54.000 Where's the Israel flags, guys?

03:01:54.000 Great!

03:01:55.000 Where's the Israel flags?

03:02:08.000 Oh brother.

03:02:10.000 Oh my gosh.

03:02:14.000 It's over.

03:02:15.000 We're cooked.

03:02:35.000 I don't see any of the Jewish ones.

03:02:38.000 Did the Jewish students not show up for this? 0.99

03:02:41.000 Where are all the ones that were on Fox News talking about how they were there for Israel?

03:03:02.000 Oh my goodness.

03:03:03.000 Did we go in a time machine?

03:03:05.000 Take that, Hamas! 0.98

03:03:07.000 We're coming for ya!

03:03:34.000 Okay.

03:03:34.000 I don't even know who this guy is.

03:03:53.000 When I tried to take down the American flag on our campus, we knew we couldn't let that happen.

03:04:00.000 We stood guard.

03:04:02.000 We held it up.

03:04:03.000 Where are the Jewish ones from Fox News? 1.00

03:04:04.000 Too pro-America for them, I think.

03:04:44.000 Let's go!

03:04:45.000 Let's go!

03:04:47.000 Those guys are white. 0.99

03:04:55.000 It's the first day that we take back the White House from crooked Joe Biden, worst president in the history of our country. 0.93

03:05:00.000 I believe that we're going to have four of the greatest years in the history of our country.

03:05:05.000 I will, once and for all, secure our elections.

03:05:08.000 We're going to go to paper ballots.

03:05:10.000 We're going to have same-day voting, voter ID.

03:05:13.000 We're going to do it properly.

03:05:14.000 We're going to have good, secure, beautiful elections.

03:05:18.000 We never want what happened in 2020 to happen again.

03:05:21.000 But until then, Republicans must win, and we must use every appropriate tool available to beat the Democrats.

03:05:28.000 They are destroying our country.

03:05:30.000 Whether you vote early, absentee, by mail, or in person, we are going to protect the vote.

03:05:35.000 That's the most important thing we have to do, is protect the vote.

03:05:39.000 Keep your eyes open, because these people want to cheat, and they do cheat.

03:05:43.000 And frankly, it's the only thing they do well.

03:05:45.000 Oh man.

03:06:04.000 That's not true.

03:06:05.000 But if you can't make it, you need to make a plan, register, and vote any way possible.

03:06:10.000 We gotta get your vote.

03:06:11.000 So with your vote, we will win a victory the likes of which no one has ever seen before.

03:06:17.000 We will evict crooked Joe Biden from the White House and we will take back our country on November 5th, 2024, the most important day in the history of our country.

03:06:28.000 That's what it's going to go down as.

03:06:30.000 Thank you.

03:06:34.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome recent Harvard University graduate Shabbos Kestenbaum.

03:06:45.000 Oh no!

03:06:47.000 Shabbos Kestenbaum!

03:06:49.000 My name is Shabbos Kestenbaum.

03:06:52.000 Oh brother.

03:06:53.000 I am a proud first-generation American.

03:06:57.000 I am a proud Orthodox Jew.

03:07:00.000 I love to say that.

03:07:05.000 Proud plaintiff suing Harvard University for its failure to combat antisemitism!

03:07:16.000 They love to sue.

03:07:19.000 I am suing Harvard for antisemitism.

03:07:23.000 I came to Harvard to study religion, the foundation of Western civilization.

03:07:28.000 What I found was not theology, but a contempt for it.

03:07:35.000 My problem with Harvard is not its liberalism, but its e-liberalism.

03:07:41.000 Too often students at Harvard are taught not how to think, but what to think.

03:07:49.000 I found myself immersed in a culture that is anti-Western, that is anti-American, and that is anti-Semitic.

03:08:00.000 Let's go!

03:08:01.000 Yes!

03:08:03.000 After October 7th, the world finally saw what I and so many Jewish students across this country experienced almost every day.

03:08:13.000 When I planted 1,200 Israeli and American flags on campus, they were all vandalized within 24 hours.

03:08:26.000 I was harassed by my peers merely for being a Jew and have received countless death threats online.

03:08:33.000 You sure it's because you're annoying maybe? 0.99

03:08:36.000 Obnoxious?

03:08:38.000 Awesome.

03:08:39.000 Oh my... Hamas-style attacks?

03:08:51.000 Is that what it's about?

03:08:52.000 This is unreal, dude.

03:08:54.000 Oh my goodness!

03:08:55.000 Oh my gosh!

03:09:21.000 Although I once voted for Bernie Sanders, I now recognize that the far left has not only abandoned the Jewish people, but the American people.

03:09:33.000 Another leftist Jew who became conservative because of Israel.

03:09:38.000 Israel is under attack by the left.

03:09:40.000 The party I registered to vote for the day I turned 18 has become ideologically poisoned.

03:09:48.000 And it is this poison, it is this corruption that is infecting far too many young American students.

03:09:57.000 Let's be clear.

03:09:59.000 The far left's anti-Semitic extremism has no virtue, and the radicalism on our campuses and on our streets has no moral legitimacy.

03:10:12.000 Awesome.

03:10:14.000 Awesome.

03:10:15.000 I was wondering where this was.

03:10:20.000 Sadly, the far left-wing tide of anti-Semitism is rising.

03:10:27.000 But tonight, tonight we fight back.

03:10:34.000 I am proud.

03:10:37.000 I am proud to support President Trump's policies to expel foreign students who violate our laws, harass our Jewish classmates, and desecrate our freedoms. 0.98

03:10:57.000 Let's elect a president who will instill patriotism in our school once again!

03:11:03.000 Let's elect a president who will confront terrorism and its supporters once again!

03:11:09.000 Let's elect a president who recognizes

03:11:13.000 That although Harvard and the Ivy Leagues have long abandoned the United States of America, the Jewish people never will. 1.00

03:11:20.000 Because Jewish values are American values, and American values are Jewish values! 0.90

03:11:27.000 God bless the United States!

03:11:29.000 God bless the land of Israel!

03:11:32.000 God bless, protect, and return the American hostages in Gaza now!

03:11:40.000 His name is Shabbos.

03:11:45.000 Make America strong again.

03:11:45.000 That's crazy.

03:11:46.000 It just doesn't end.

03:11:47.000 There's more?

03:11:48.000 It never ends.

03:12:11.000 Our children were kidnapped by Hamas.

03:12:27.000 Our son, Omer, is an American citizen.

03:12:33.000 For 284 long days and nights, Hamas terrorists have been holding Omer imprisoned in tunnels underneath Gaza.

03:12:48.000 Omer, which is a biblical name and means in Hebrew, the first crop, is our firstborn.

03:12:58.000 He was born in New York City one month after 9-11.

03:13:03.000 Eight months pregnant, I walked across the Queensborough Bridge towards home that day.

03:13:09.000 And here we are, 23 years later, and he's the victim of another vile terrorist attack.

03:13:21.000 Let me tell you a little bit about my son.

03:13:25.000 He's a connector.

03:13:27.000 He's an extremely social person.

03:13:29.000 He loves sports.

03:13:31.000 In high school, he was captain of the soccer ball, volleyball, and basketball teams.

03:13:37.000 He's a natural leader.

03:13:46.000 And he cares deeply about others and about helping them grow.

03:13:51.000 He turned 22 on October 14, 2023.

03:13:57.000 And instead of celebrating with us and with his friends, he spent his birthday as the hostage of Hamas terrorists.

03:14:08.000 Imagine.

03:14:10.000 Over nine months, not knowing whether your son is alive, waking up every morning, praying that he, too, is still waking up every morning, that he is strong and is surviving.

03:14:25.000 I recite Psalm 23 in his merit every single day.

03:14:34.000 Why is this part of the convention?

03:14:36.000 Yeah, try getting it out.

03:14:37.000 Take it up with your president.

03:14:38.000 Take it up with Netanyahu.

03:14:40.000 He's the one that wants the war to go on forever.

03:14:58.000 It's got nothing to do with us.

03:15:00.000 Why was he there?

03:15:01.000 Bring them home.

03:15:03.000 Bring them home.

03:15:06.000 These people are probably citizens of Israel.

03:15:10.000 Why is this our problem?

03:15:11.000 Bring them home.

03:15:19.000 During the brutal October 7th attack on Israel, over 1,200 people were slaughtered.

03:15:28.000 Of them, 45 were American citizens.

03:15:32.000 And how many were dual citizens?

03:15:33.000 Where is the outrage?

03:15:37.000 Everywhere.

03:15:38.000 It's everywhere.

03:15:39.000 It's on the media constantly.

03:15:41.000 This was not merely an attack on Israel.

03:15:44.000 This was and remains an attack on Americans.

03:15:49.000 How?

03:15:52.000 It's got nothing to do with America.

03:15:53.000 Homer is one of eight American hostages.

03:15:57.000 And one of 120 hostages still left in Gaza.

03:16:03.000 Citizens of 24 countries and 5 different religions, still held by Hamas, denied basic human needs, their lives threatened every day.

03:16:17.000 President Trump called us, personally, right after the attack, when Omer was taken captive.

03:16:25.000 We know he stands with the American hostages.

03:16:29.000 We need our beautiful son back.

03:16:33.000 And we need your support.

03:16:36.000 Take it up with your government.

03:16:37.000 We need your support to end this crisis and bring all the hostages back home.

03:16:43.000 They're so proud until they need America.

03:16:49.000 Israel pride!

03:16:50.000 We're Jewish!

03:16:51.000 Jews are so smart!

03:16:54.000 We need you guys, please!

03:16:57.000 You're so smart, you figure it out.

03:17:02.000 Amen!

03:17:04.000 We love you!

03:17:06.000 We won't stop fighting for you!

03:17:19.000 Take it up with Netanyahu.

03:17:26.000 Hamas has offered to release all the hostages.

03:17:29.000 Netanyahu wants to annex the Gaza Strip.

03:17:31.000 That's why they're not home.

03:17:33.000 And it's nothing to do with us anyway.

03:17:43.000 It's unending.

03:17:49.000 Hello, Wisconsin!

03:17:52.000 I'm Lee Zeldin from New York.

03:18:08.000 A nation led by President Trump

03:18:12.000 Is the nation stronger, safer, and more secure as a former 82nd Airborne paratrooper?

03:18:28.000 I want a military focused on being the world's greatest fighting force, not its biggest social experiment.

03:18:42.000 We need a president treating our friends as friends, and our adversaries as our adversaries, understanding they only respect strength, not weakness.

03:18:58.000 That's all code for more bombs.

03:19:00.000 More bombs against other countries.

03:19:01.000 I was on the House Foreign Affairs Committee under three presidents.

03:19:06.000 But only one ended wars without starting new ones.

03:19:12.000 President Donald Trump.

03:19:22.000 How many wars did Trump end?

03:19:23.000 As one of two Jewish Republicans in Congress.

03:19:27.000 It was amazing to witness history making progress.

03:19:34.000 Strengthening the US-Israel relationship under President Trump.

03:19:40.000 Moving our embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.

03:19:47.000 Recognizing Israel's sovereignty over the Golan Heights.

03:19:53.000 And launching the Abraham Accords, which no one said was possible. 0.91

03:19:59.000 Do you realize how bizarre this is?

03:20:03.000 Is there going to be a portion about our other allies like Japan or NATO?

03:20:07.000 Or AUKUS?

03:20:12.000 President Trump withdrew from the Iran deal, stopped those insane ransom payments, and crippled Iran with maximum pressure.

03:20:32.000 But then?

03:20:33.000 Everything went downhill under Biden.

03:20:37.000 Yes, the guy who advised Obama not to take out Osama.

03:20:45.000 Joe Biden advised against the mission that killed Osama bin Laden.

03:20:57.000 As an American, and especially as a New Yorker,

03:21:02.000 That's unforgivable.

03:21:04.000 Is that what they're calling them now?

03:21:06.000 Even in his prime, he had bad judgment.

03:21:10.000 And it's only gotten worse with age.

03:21:14.000 We cannot count on Biden to make this kind of crucial 3 a.m.

03:21:19.000 decision.

03:21:20.000 Heck, we can't rely on him at 3 in the afternoon.

03:21:31.000 That's Jerry Lawler, passing anti-Semitism law. 0.77

03:21:33.000 He has refilled Iran's coffers. 0.72

03:21:38.000 Since October 7th, Biden has pandered to anti-Semites who cheer Hamas's attack.

03:21:46.000 Seriously?

03:21:49.000 All while Americans are still being held hostage in Gaza.

03:21:55.000 This is a pro-war message. 0.89

03:21:57.000 I hope everyone understands that.

03:21:58.000 Biden turned 13 blue star families into gold star families with his fatal withdrawal from Afghanistan.

03:22:07.000 And then he lied about it during last month's debate, claiming that no service members had died under his watch.

03:22:17.000 They want us to be in Afghanistan because Afghanistan is next to Iran.

03:22:22.000 That's why they didn't want us to leave.

03:22:23.000 We must elect President Trump.

03:22:26.000 Because they want us on either side so that we can bomb Iran. 1.00

03:22:29.000 Yeah, whatever.

03:22:29.000 15 minute speech about Israel and like China on the border or something.

03:22:54.000 We need him back in the White House now more than ever before.

03:23:06.000 To make America great again, we must first, and God willing, we will, expand the Republican majority in the United States House of Representatives.

03:23:22.000 We will flip the United States Senate.

03:23:30.000 We are going to elect J.D.

03:23:33.000 Vance our next vice president.

03:23:39.000 And we will make Donald J. Trump the 47th president of these United States.

03:23:47.000 Thank you.

03:23:47.000 God bless you.

03:23:49.000 God bless President Trump and his family, and God bless America.

03:23:52.000 20-minute speech about Israel.

03:23:55.000 Oh yeah, like China and the border or something.

03:24:00.000 The frat bros, the hostage parents, the former Jewish representative. 0.77

03:24:08.000 And it's all about Israel. 0.71

03:24:10.000 I just wonder, do the normies realize that the only reason they talk so much about Israel is because Israeli money controls the GOP?

03:24:18.000 Do people realize that?

03:24:20.000 Do people not find it strange?

03:24:22.000 Let's say the theme is make America strong again, like our military.

03:24:26.000 Let's say it's even about our allies.

03:24:29.000 It's not about the United Kingdom?

03:24:31.000 It's not about France.

03:24:32.000 It's not about NATO.

03:24:34.000 It's not about Japan.

03:24:35.000 It's not about AUKUS, which is Australia, UK, US.

03:24:39.000 It's not about Saudi Arabia.

03:24:41.000 It's about Israel.

03:24:43.000 It's one segment after another about Israel.

03:24:46.000 It's not about the war in Ukraine.

03:24:47.000 It's not about the imminent war in Taiwan.

03:24:50.000 It's about Israel's war in Gaza.

03:24:53.000 Does anybody just realize that that's conspicuous?

03:24:56.000 One of these things is not like the other?

03:24:59.000 And then you listen to Thomas Massey that every American Republican member of Congress has an APAC guy.

03:25:06.000 Israeli lobbyist.

03:25:08.000 And then you realize Miriam Adelson's gonna give a hundred million dollars to Trump.

03:25:12.000 So I just, I mean, obviously people who watch me normally get this stuff, but like, I don't know how people don't see it by this, by this point.

03:25:27.000 Finally a real American. 0.58

03:25:30.000 This is a real American who actually loves America.

03:25:42.000 Thank you very much.

03:25:44.000 My name is Bill Pickrell.

03:25:47.000 I'm a proud Wisconsinite.

03:25:54.000 I'm a proud husband of 76 years old and my wife Rosemary.

03:26:01.000 I'm a father of 11 children.

03:26:08.000 Six girls, five boys.

03:26:12.000 Wow.

03:26:14.000 Our family across five generations and a proud World War II veteran.

03:26:27.000 I'm 98 years old.

03:26:30.000 Wow.

03:26:37.000 That's what America's about.

03:26:39.000 Not Israel. 0.99

03:26:43.000 Some call us the greatest generation.

03:26:51.000 That's an honor, considering America is the greatest nation in the history of the world.

03:27:04.000 I will never forget and witness the horror of the Nazis' war camps, in the Battle of the Bulge,

03:27:15.000 My friends and I fought to stop the Nazis' last major push in the Western Front.

03:27:31.000 A few months later, Hitler was dead.

03:27:33.000 The Nazis were defeated.

03:27:51.000 And we gave thanks to Almighty God for delivering us from evil.

03:28:02.000 I feel like we delivered two evil, kind of.

03:28:04.000 But not many of us came home.

03:28:07.000 I still miss a lot of my friends on that beach.

03:28:15.000 And there were many of us left.

03:28:18.000 There aren't many of us left today.

03:28:21.000 But for us, those of us who are here, that America is still worth fighting for.

03:28:50.000 Is that Jack Hadfield?

03:28:54.000 It hurts my heart to see what our current president and vice president have done to the country I love so well.

03:29:05.000 They humiliated us in Afghanistan. 0.88

03:29:10.000 We pushed around in China.

03:29:13.000 Terrorists run wild in the Middle East.

03:29:16.000 And they let our own southern border get overrun.

03:29:20.000 W. Mike.

03:29:27.000 America, people say, people is like, America is an idea.

03:29:34.000 But I believe America is much more than that.

03:29:42.000 America is our home!

03:29:43.000 Yes!

03:29:45.000 Yes!

03:29:49.000 Bass, okay.

03:29:58.000 W. That's awesome.

03:30:13.000 You know, when I was fighting in Europe

03:30:18.000 And I came back home.

03:30:20.000 I kissed the ground.

03:30:23.000 Thank God that I'm back home in my country.

03:30:34.000 That's a real American.

03:30:37.000 And where I come from,

03:30:40.000 When somebody comes for me, for my home, you dig in your boots in the ground and never look back.

03:30:57.000 That's the attitude that saved the free world and those years ago.

03:31:05.000 And President Trump, back in Commander-in-Chief,

03:31:10.000 I would go back to re-enlist today, and I would form whatever speech my country wanted to

03:31:47.000 God bless you.

03:31:49.000 God bless your home.

03:31:51.000 And the United States of America.

03:31:55.000 Love it.

03:31:57.000 God bless.

03:32:09.000 That's a real American.

03:32:15.000 You think those Israelis would kiss the ground in America? 1.00

03:32:18.000 They spit on the ground. 0.99

03:32:27.000 Alright.

03:32:30.000 Love that song, by the way.

03:32:33.000 Love Tom Petty, but...

03:32:34.000 Yeah, well it just goes to show the contrast.

03:32:37.000 You get these people, they have foreign accents, they're not Christian, they want us to go to war for Israel, and I don't necessarily agree with World War II.

03:32:46.000 But then you get a real decent American, a real old-school American who deeply loves this country because it's our home, it's his first and only allegiance.

03:32:58.000 It just goes to show the contrast.

03:32:59.000 The problem is,

03:33:01.000 They are insinuating their national struggle into our national struggle.

03:33:07.000 It's very intentional.

03:33:09.000 Our people should not be in Afghanistan. 1.00

03:33:12.000 But when they get killed, people say, oh, now it's about America.

03:33:16.000 It was never about America.

03:33:18.000 Fighting in Iraq was never about America.

03:33:20.000 Fighting in Syria is not about America.

03:33:22.000 Fighting in Gaza or Lebanon or Iran is not about America.

03:33:26.000 But it's about insinuating Israel's national interest, which they care deeply about, which that's their only allegiance.

03:33:34.000 into our national interest.

03:33:37.000 They're Israeli citizens.

03:33:38.000 They're dual citizens.

03:33:40.000 This is not their home.

03:33:41.000 Israel is their home. 0.71

03:33:43.000 And they have citizenship there.

03:33:45.000 And then they talk about, well, nationalism is citizenship.

03:33:48.000 Well, you have three.

03:33:49.000 So which is it?

03:33:51.000 And then they want us to fight their wars.

03:33:53.000 So which is it?

03:33:55.000 We need more Americans like that guy.

03:33:58.000 And then we wouldn't be a war in the Middle East.

03:34:00.000 Nobody would be dying at all.

03:34:01.000 They wouldn't be dying, going in, or leaving.

03:34:05.000 But it's just a shame.

03:34:06.000 This whole night has just been warmongering.

03:34:09.000 Is this Don Jr.? ?

03:34:39.000 Good evening, America.

03:34:42.000 Before I begin my remarks, I'm going to do something a little uncharacteristic.

03:34:49.000 A Trump is going to give up the microphone.

03:34:53.000 Doesn't happen often.

03:34:54.000 You may never see it again.

03:34:56.000 But I got a call on Monday morning from a young lady who said, Dad, I want to speak at the RNC.

03:35:12.000 I want to speak at the RNC because I want America to know what my grandpa is actually like.

03:35:24.000 So for the first time ever on a stage, first time ever giving a speech, I want to bring out my eldest daughter and the eldest granddaughter of the President of the United States, your favorite President, Kai Madison Trump.

03:36:01.000 Hi everyone, my name is Ty Madsen Trump.

03:36:04.000 I am the granddaughter of Donald Trump.

03:36:07.000 I'm speaking today to share the side of my grandpa that people don't often see.

03:36:12.000 To me, he's just a normal grandpa.

03:36:16.000 He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren't looking.

03:36:22.000 He always wants to know how we're doing in school.

03:36:26.000 When I made the high honor roll, he printed it out to show his friends how proud he was of me.

03:36:30.000 I know.

03:36:35.000 That's crazy.

03:36:36.000 Trump is your grandpa?

03:36:37.000 He calls me during the middle of the school day to ask how my golf game is going and tells me all about his.

03:36:47.000 But then I had to remind him that I'm in school and I'll have to call him back later.

03:36:55.000 When we play golf together, if I'm not on his team, he'll try to get inside of my head.

03:37:01.000 I know.

03:37:02.000 And he's always surprised that I don't let him get to me.

03:37:08.000 But I have to remind him, I'm with Trump too.

03:37:10.000 That's crazy.

03:37:21.000 Even when he's going through all these court cases, he always asks me how I'm doing.

03:37:27.000 He always encourages me to push myself to be the most successful person I can be.

03:37:33.000 Obviously, he sets the bar pretty high, but who knows, maybe one day I'll catch him.

03:37:43.000 On Saturday, I was shocked when I heard that he has been shot, and I just wanted to know if he was okay.

03:37:51.000 It was heartbreaking that someone would do that to another person.

03:37:54.000 A lot of people have put my grandpa through hell, and he's still standing.

03:38:01.000 That's crazy that she's just like a teenager. 1.00

03:38:03.000 She's on, like, TikTok.

03:38:05.000 She's listening to Charli XCX.

03:38:08.000 And she's like, oh, my grandpa's calling me.

03:38:09.000 It's Donald Trump.

03:38:11.000 That's crazy.

03:38:12.000 Grandpa, you are such an inspiration, and I love you.

03:38:18.000 Love it.

03:38:24.000 The media makes my grandpa seem like a different person, but I know him for who he is.

03:38:31.000 He's very caring and loving.

03:38:33.000 He truly wants the best for this country, and he will fight every single day to make America great again.

03:38:40.000 Thank you very much.

03:38:44.000 All right, let's keep it optical in the live chat, okay, please? 0.92

03:38:49.000 Some of you people are gross. 0.99

03:38:49.000 Gross. 0.99

03:38:54.000 That was a sweet message, very nice. 0.82

03:39:08.000 Beautiful family.

03:39:15.000 A lot of proud moments this week for my family.

03:39:19.000 Really appreciate that.

03:39:19.000 Thank you again, guys.

03:39:20.000 That's not easy.

03:39:21.000 That's the first time.

03:39:22.000 I mean, this is what we call a large crowd for a speech.

03:39:26.000 So, incredible work, Kai.

03:39:29.000 Now, back to business.

03:39:35.000 Thank you, sir.

03:39:37.000 Tonight, we gather here in Milwaukee at one of the most crucial moments in American history.

03:39:45.000 Just days ago, something that once seemed unimaginable

03:39:49.000 became a terrifying reality.

03:39:52.000 My father came under literal fire as an incredible patriotic rally turned into a tragedy.

03:40:01.000 On a field in Butler, Pennsylvania, a brave firefighter died.

03:40:05.000 Others were injured.

03:40:07.000 And as those bullets rained down, we came millimeters away from one of the darkest moments in our nation's history.

03:40:16.000 But we did lose an American hero that day.

03:40:19.000 We wish that he were with us tonight.

03:40:22.000 But his memory will live on forever in the hearts of his family, his community, and the nation that he loved.

03:40:39.000 So I would like to take just a moment tonight to express our gratitude

03:40:44.000 For the life and service of American hero, Cory Comparatore.

03:41:17.000 They say you can't truly know how you'll respond in a moment of danger until you're actually confronted with it.

03:41:23.000 So what was my father's instinct as his life was on the line?

03:41:29.000 Not to cower, not to surrender, but to show for all the world to see that the next American president has the heart of a lion.

03:41:49.000 That the next American president has the courage to put the American people first once again.

03:42:00.000 And in that moment, my father didn't just show his character.

03:42:05.000 He showed America's character.

03:42:12.000 When he stood up with blood on his face and the flag at his back, the world saw a spirit that could never be broken.

03:42:30.000 And that is the true spirit of America.

03:42:34.000 America knows what it's like to be down.

03:42:37.000 We know what it's like to be confused and to be afraid.

03:42:41.000 Long before the attempt on my father's life, every American I met was filled with fear and anxiety.

03:42:48.000 They were afraid our country was being torn apart.

03:42:51.000 They were anxious about the massive and chaotic invasion of illegal aliens across our border.

03:42:57.000 They were deeply concerned about partisan lawfare, education indoctrination, and attacks on freedom of speech.

03:43:06.000 Most terrifying of all, they saw that our leaders didn't care.

03:43:11.000 Or worse, that they joyfully aided and abetted the erosion of our rights.

03:43:21.000 And the lies.

03:43:23.000 Oh yeah, the lies.

03:43:25.000 We won't ever forget the lies.

03:43:27.000 From left-wing politicians, from their allies in the media.

03:43:31.000 When you hear them in a row, you fully understand the extent they have gone to divide this great nation.

03:43:41.000 They lied about Russia collusion.

03:43:44.000 They lied about Hunter's laptop.

03:43:47.000 They lied about Joe Biden's fitness for office.

03:43:52.000 They lied about the border being secure.

03:43:56.000 They lied about inflation being transitory.

03:44:00.000 They lied about how they would safely withdraw from Afghanistan. 0.99

03:44:06.000 They lied about Biden being a quote moderate.

03:44:12.000 And they told one nonstop lie after another about my father.

03:44:19.000 But they could only run away from reality for so long.

03:44:23.000 All hell has broken loose in America, and it's impossible to hide anymore.

03:44:31.000 He's a much better speaker now.

03:44:32.000 I used to not be very impressed with him, but this is a very good speech.

03:44:38.000 Instead, we got broke bumbling Biden.

03:44:42.000 Okay, don't love that.

03:44:44.000 The rhetoric's not great, but the execution's really good.

03:44:46.000 Bridges are collapsing, our credibility is crumbling, and our money is worth less and less every single day.

03:45:01.000 It was just one giant bait-and-switch, and normal Americans are the ones left holding the bag.

03:45:10.000 Housing costs, gasoline prices, grocery bills just keep going up.

03:45:16.000 Wave after wave of illegal aliens, deadly drugs keep pouring across our border.

03:45:23.000 Meanwhile, pro-crime district attorneys have turned our cities into giant crime zones.

03:45:29.000 They've turned criminals into victims, prosecutors into criminal defense attorneys, and police into public enemies.

03:45:39.000 Okay, can they stop doing that?

03:45:40.000 It's really obnoxious.

03:45:41.000 They're pretending to be educators, teaching our kids that there are 57 genders. 0.93

03:45:46.000 But they can't even define what a woman is. 1.00

03:45:50.000 How many times are they going to say that?

03:45:52.000 On one hand, they think free speech protects their right to expose your children to explicit drag shows.

03:46:00.000 On the other hand, they want to put you in jail for making a meme.

03:46:05.000 It's like the entire world has been turned upside down.

03:46:10.000 Does any of this sound like a country that's going in the right direction?

03:46:17.000 And honestly, who is actually running the country anyway?

03:46:23.000 It's obviously not Joe Biden.

03:46:27.000 So who are they asking us to elect?

03:46:30.000 Seriously, who's running things?

03:46:37.000 Does anyone really know?

03:46:41.000 Is it Jill?

03:46:43.000 Is it Hunter?

03:46:46.000 Barack Obama?

03:46:49.000 Maybe it's the ghost of Corn Pop? 0.55

03:46:57.000 Whoever is running the show, the only thing they are effective at is persecuting my father.

03:47:04.000 They twisted, contorted, and corrupted the criminal code to turn bookkeeping errors into fennelies.

03:47:10.000 They concocted new legal theories out of thin air.

03:47:13.000 They imposed gag orders on my father because the last thing a defendant should be able to do is defend himself, right?

03:47:21.000 They punished him for merely speaking the truth.

03:47:26.000 Dude!

03:47:27.000 They say they hate Vladimir Putin, but it sure seems like they've spent a lot of time copying his playbook.

03:47:34.000 Stop doing that!

03:47:38.000 In this country, we don't criminalize political differences.

03:47:41.000 We debate them.

03:47:43.000 We vote on them.

03:47:44.000 But we don't make you choose between picking a party or picking a jail cell.

03:47:58.000 There was a time when the Democrats really wanted what was best for America, even if they had a different way of getting there.

03:48:05.000 It was the party of Franklin Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr.

03:48:10.000 You may have disagreed with that party, but at least you could respect it.

03:48:15.000 But this new, extreme Democrat party, they want us to somehow believe that the only way forward is going backwards, where hiring decisions are based solely on race,

03:48:28.000 Where justice is only for those with the right opinions.

03:48:32.000 Where streets are a luxury only for the elite.

03:48:37.000 Where economic opportunity exists only when you know the right people.

03:48:43.000 Right now, the America we all grew up with, the America that we love, feels like an old photograph.

03:48:51.000 Where you sit down with your children and tell them what life used to be like.

03:48:57.000 You look back at that America and remember a country that was confident and proud.

03:49:02.000 And white.

03:49:04.000 And Christian.

03:49:06.000 And it could all feel like a distant memory.

03:49:10.000 Somewhere along the way we stumbled.

03:49:13.000 Somewhere along the way we lost ourselves.

03:49:17.000 But we can't live on nostalgia.

03:49:19.000 Yes, America was great.

03:49:22.000 But our greatest days are yet to come.

03:49:27.000 Does anybody really believe that?

03:49:33.000 I mean, seriously.

03:49:41.000 Because no matter how far off that old photo may feel, it's not the end of our story.

03:49:49.000 We're like that man who stood on that platform and felt the bullet pierce his flesh just days ago in Pennsylvania.

03:49:57.000 He may have moved to the ground, but he stood back up.

03:50:13.000 And when he did, my father raised his fist into the air.

03:50:18.000 He looked out at the crowd, and what did he say?

03:50:29.000 They're really beating that to death.

03:50:35.000 It's tapped.

03:50:43.000 And we will fight.

03:50:45.000 We will fight.

03:50:47.000 We will fight with our voices.

03:50:50.000 We will fight with our ideas.

03:50:52.000 And on November 5th, we will fight with our vote.

03:51:05.000 I've always been proud of him, but I've never been prouder of my father than I was in that moment.

03:51:13.000 That's when the world found out that there is tough, and then there's Trump tough.

03:51:28.000 And the good news is, America is Trump tough!

03:52:00.000 In 1912, more than a century ago, another legendary Republican president came right here to Milwaukee.

03:52:07.000 At a political rally less than one mile from where we stand tonight, Teddy Roosevelt was struck by a would-be assassin's bullet.

03:52:17.000 But he didn't quit either.

03:52:19.000 He finished his speech and he kept fighting.

03:52:28.000 My friends,

03:52:29.000 I don't believe in coincidences, but I do believe in God's plan.

03:52:45.000 Today, Teddy Roosevelt's man in the arena has a name, and it's Donald J. Trump!

03:53:04.000 Remember, my father didn't have to run for re-election this year.

03:53:09.000 He doesn't need the money, the fame, the power.

03:53:12.000 Frankly, he doesn't need the witch hunts, the phony investigations, or the political prosecutions either.

03:53:18.000 But he knew he had to run if there was any chance at saving America.

03:53:29.000 He's not doing it for himself.

03:53:31.000 He's doing it for everyone here tonight, for everyone watching at home.

03:53:43.000 No matter who you are, you can be a part of this movement to make America great again.

03:53:54.000 Look at me.

03:53:56.000 And my friend J.D.

03:53:57.000 Vance, a kid from Appalachia and a kid from Trump Tower in Manhattan.

03:54:06.000 We grew up worlds apart, yet now we're both fighting side by side to save the country we love.

03:54:16.000 And by the way, J.D.

03:54:18.000 Vance is going to make one hell of a vice president.

03:54:41.000 For those of you who have tuned out politics or have never even voted, I want you to know

03:54:47.000 If you're looking for a better life, a more prosperous future, a safer, more wholesome and patriotic place to call home, there's room for you in this party and in this movement.

03:55:07.000 In fact, you're the ones who matter most of all.

03:55:11.000 My father has always said that the people he gets along with best are the people who really work for a living.

03:55:23.000 It's because of his background as a builder in construction.

03:55:27.000 In construction, it doesn't matter how smart your architect is if you don't have the best guys laying the bricks.

03:55:38.000 People with grit.

03:55:40.000 People who get their hands dirty.

03:55:43.000 That's a big problem with Washington, D.C.

03:55:46.000 Most of the bureaucrats who rule over us have never built anything in their lives.

03:55:52.000 It's time to build something real.

03:55:55.000 Something tangible.

03:55:57.000 Something that will last and leave this country better off for our children.

03:56:01.000 That's my father's mission.

03:56:12.000 This November, we have a choice.

03:56:15.000 It's a choice between one team that wants to build this country up and another that wants to tear this country down.

03:56:26.000 It's a choice between people who are a proud of America and people who are ashamed of America.

03:56:31.000 A proud.

03:56:32.000 And ultimately, it's a choice between America last and America first.

03:56:42.000 Yep.

03:56:47.000 So if you love this country from the bottom of your heart, if you want to bring back common sense, if you want to save the American dream, if you want to stand up and fight for the future of our nation, you must re-elect my father, Donald J. Trump.

03:57:21.000 And together, we will make America great once again.

03:57:26.000 Thank you.

03:57:30.000 Thank you, Wisconsin.

03:57:38.000 All right.

03:57:51.000 I mean, whatever.

03:57:51.000 Adequate.

03:57:59.000 This platform isn't doing it for me.

03:58:03.000 I don't know about you guys, but I feel like this whole convention, the platform, I'm just indifferent to it.

03:58:12.000 It wasn't like that in 2016.

03:58:13.000 In 2016, everyone was hitting.

03:58:14.000 Every policy was hitting.

03:58:20.000 And the rhetoric was hitting.

03:58:22.000 It was about corruption, and globalism, and the elites, and the media, and immigration, and trade, and the Iraq war.

03:58:33.000 And now it's like school choice, inflation, the withdrawal from Afghanistan, this very tedious stuff about Trump being persecuted, a lot of racial pandering.

03:58:50.000 So I'm just kind of, like, over it, you know?

03:58:53.000 The rhetoric isn't as strong.

03:58:54.000 The policies aren't as conservative.

03:58:58.000 The energy isn't as high.

03:58:59.000 This just feels like a regular Republican convention.

03:59:02.000 That's what's so, like, heartbreaking about it.

03:59:05.000 And the thing is, you know, I do love Trump as a guy.

03:59:09.000 I think he's a great guy.

03:59:11.000 Hang on, my headphones under the wheel. 0.99

03:59:14.000 Damn it. 1.00

03:59:18.000 Freaking thing. 1.00

03:59:20.000 Oh, I'm screwed now. 0.99

03:59:24.000 There we go. 0.96

03:59:28.000 Okay.

03:59:30.000 Headset got caught under the wheel of my chair.

03:59:33.000 Disaster.

03:59:35.000 Um, so I love Trump as a guy.

03:59:39.000 I think he's a remarkable human being.

03:59:40.000 He's obviously a good man.

03:59:42.000 I think he deeply cares about people.

03:59:44.000 I think he deeply cares about veterans and he cares about

03:59:51.000 The people of the country.

03:59:55.000 But unfortunately, it's just not enough because the party has obviously shaped the platform.

04:00:01.000 And so now, instead of getting this radical, populist, independent platform, we're getting a very moderate Republican platform.

04:00:10.000 And to me, that's really like the biggest difference.

04:00:12.000 I felt like in 2016, Trump was running against the Republicans and the Democrats.

04:00:19.000 He was taking on the establishments of both parties which share a consensus on immigration, on war, on the economy.

04:00:30.000 He was talking about free trade, foreign wars, mass immigration, and crime.

04:00:36.000 And now I feel like he's running as Republican against the Democrats.

04:00:40.000 And now it's all partisan, and it's all just the conservative stuff.

04:00:44.000 It's all just conservative establishment talking points.

04:00:47.000 It's tough on China, tough on Iran, biggest military, cut taxes, school choice, freedom. 0.52

04:00:57.000 And that's just not really what I signed up for.

04:00:59.000 So it's just kind of been a disappointment.

04:01:01.000 I'm waiting to see what Trump says tomorrow, because he said that he rewrote the speech after he got shot.

04:01:08.000 So I'm curious to see what's going to be in it.

04:01:11.000 But to me, it feels like eight years have gone by and Trump did not change the party.

04:01:17.000 The party changed Trump.

04:01:19.000 Trump has been absorbed by the party.

04:01:21.000 That's how it feels.

04:01:23.000 And it's not personal.

04:01:24.000 I don't hate Trump.

04:01:25.000 I'm not a never-Trumper.

04:01:27.000 I love Trump, but I feel like he has been made to become a mascot for the GOP.

04:01:35.000 And I'm not a Republican.

04:01:37.000 Not a Democrat, but I'm not a Republican.

04:01:40.000 Here we go, Vance.

04:02:00.000 J.D.

04:02:00.000 joined the Marine Corps, used the G.I.

04:02:03.000 Bill to attend college, then went to Yale and earned a law degree and shared his heartbreaking story in a best-selling book.

04:02:13.000 Only in America is this story possible.

04:02:16.000 But today, for many families, the American dream is now gone.

04:02:22.000 And this is the team tough enough to bring it back.

04:02:26.000 J.D.

04:02:27.000 Vance understands that working families have become the forgotten families.

04:02:32.000 Sorry, but does anybody buy this?

04:02:35.000 He's a Yale lawyer.

04:02:37.000 But he puts on a flannel and they say, oh now he's got working class appeal.

04:02:41.000 Let me get my flannel.

04:02:43.000 He ran a fund.

04:02:44.000 He's a finance guy.

04:02:45.000 He was educated at Yale.

04:03:02.000 And you can count on this Marine to stand up for our soldiers who put their lives on the line for their country every day.

04:03:10.000 Vance's story is one of perseverance, of duty, of commitment to what's right.

04:03:10.000 J.D.

04:03:18.000 It's an American story, and it's just getting started.

04:03:21.000 Here we go.

04:03:30.000 Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Usha Vance.

04:03:36.000 He wasn't even in combat!

04:03:38.000 He was a... He was a combat correspondent.

04:03:47.000 Oh, and his wife.

04:03:48.000 Here we go.

04:04:01.000 Good evening.

04:04:03.000 Good evening.

04:04:05.000 When I was asked to introduce my husband, J.D.

04:04:08.000 Vance, to all of you, I was at a loss.

04:04:12.000 What could I say that hasn't already been said before?

04:04:15.000 Are you serious?

04:04:16.000 After all, the man was already the subject of a Ron Paul movie.

04:04:19.000 She's violent from The Incredibles. 0.99

04:04:21.000 Bollywood remake.

04:04:24.000 has shared much of his life through his own eloquent words.

04:04:24.000 J.D.

04:04:28.000 In his book, Hillbilly Elegy,

04:04:31.000 During his Senate campaign, and now as a sitting United States Senator, it occurred to me that there was only one thing to do.

04:04:41.000 To explain, from the heart, why I love and admire J.D.

04:04:46.000 and stand here beside him today, and why he will make a great Vice President of the United States.

04:04:53.000 By the way, everybody that supports Vance called me a brown third-worlder for the past year because I don't support Israel.

04:05:02.000 I met JD in law school when he was fresh out of Ohio State, which he attended with the support of the GI Bill.

04:05:09.000 We were friends first, because who wouldn't want to be friends with JD?

04:05:13.000 He was then, as now, the most interesting person I knew.

04:05:17.000 A working class guy who had overcome childhood traumas that I could barely fathom to end up at Yale Law School.

04:05:27.000 A tough Marine who had served in Iraq, but whose idea of a good time was playing with puppies and watching the movie Babe.

04:05:38.000 The most determined person I knew with one overriding ambition.

04:05:42.000 To become a husband and a father, and to build the kind of tight-knit family that he had longed for as a child.

04:05:52.000 My background is very different from JD's.

04:05:55.000 I grew up in San Diego, in a middle class community, with two loving parents, both immigrants from India, and a wonderful sister.

04:06:10.000 That JD and I could meet at all, let alone fall in love and marry, is a testament to this great country.

04:06:26.000 It is also a testament to JD, and it tells you something about who he is.

04:06:33.000 When JD met me, he approached our differences with curiosity.

04:06:38.000 And enthusiasm.

04:06:38.000 What differences?

04:06:39.000 What do you mean by that?

04:06:40.000 He wanted to know everything about me, where I came from, what my life had been like.

04:06:47.000 Although he's a meat and potatoes kind of guy, he adapted to my vegetarian diet and learned to cook food from my mother.

04:06:54.000 Indian food.

04:06:56.000 Before I knew it, he'd become an integral part of my family.

04:07:01.000 A person I could not imagine living without.

04:07:07.000 The JD I knew then is the same JD you see today.

04:07:11.000 Except for that beard. 0.86

04:07:14.000 Yeah, I prefer his fat face.

04:07:16.000 And his goals in this new role are the same that he's pursued for our family. 0.59

04:07:20.000 To keep people safe.

04:07:22.000 To create opportunities.

04:07:24.000 She seems like a very nice woman.

04:07:26.000 And to solve problems with an open mind.

04:07:30.000 It's safe to say that neither JD nor I expected to find ourselves in this position.

04:07:35.000 But it's hard to imagine a more powerful example of the American dream.

04:07:40.000 A boy from Middletown, Ohio.

04:07:55.000 I don't hate her.

04:07:56.000 I don't have a problem with her.

04:07:58.000 But it reflects their values.

04:08:00.000 These are multiculturalists.

04:08:02.000 By definition.

04:08:06.000 Raised by his grandmother through tough times.

04:08:09.000 Chosen to help lead our country through some of its greatest challenges.

04:08:14.000 I am grateful to all of you for the trust you've placed in him and in our family.

04:08:21.000 And with that, it is my great privilege to introduce my husband and the next Vice President of the United States, J.D.

04:08:28.000 Vance.

04:08:34.000 She seems lovely.

04:08:35.000 She seems very intelligent.

04:08:37.000 She's very pretty. 1.00

04:08:39.000 Look at this simp shit. 1.00

04:08:41.000 That's crazy. 1.00

04:08:44.000 But that's what a multiculturalist does.

04:08:57.000 I really don't like this guy.

04:09:00.000 Thank you!

04:09:23.000 Thank you!

04:09:24.000 Thank you!

04:09:25.000 Please!

04:09:26.000 Wow!

04:09:27.000 Oh, stop.

04:10:03.000 First of all, aren't I a lucky guy?

04:10:05.000 Isn't she lovely and amazing? 1.00

04:10:12.000 Greetings, Milwaukee.

04:10:15.000 My fellow Americans and my fellow Republicans, my name is J.D.

04:10:19.000 Vance from the great state of Ohio.

04:10:23.000 Looks like he's got a little pimple on his nose, I feel for him. 1.00

04:10:26.000 That sucks. 0.99

04:10:29.000 Tonight... Just stop, dude. 0.99

04:10:34.000 I really hate this, like, canned.

04:10:36.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:37.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:38.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:41.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:42.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:43.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:44.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:45.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:49.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:50.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:50.000 O-H 0.99

04:10:50.000 O-H-I-O. 0.99

04:10:56.000 My friends, tonight is a night of hope.

04:10:59.000 A celebration of what America once was, and with God's grace, what it will soon be again.

04:11:12.000 And it is a reminder of the sacred duty we have to preserve the American experiment, to choose a new path for our children and grandchildren.

04:11:23.000 But as we meet tonight, we cannot forget that this evening could have been so much different.

04:11:28.000 Instead of a day of celebration, this could have been a day of heartache and mourning.

04:11:34.000 For the last eight years, President Trump has given everything he has to fight for the people of our country.

04:11:49.000 He didn't need politics, but the country needed him.

04:11:55.000 Did it?

04:11:59.000 Now prior to running for president, he was one of the most successful businessmen in the world.

04:12:03.000 This guy has no aura.

04:12:04.000 He had everything anyone could ever want in a life.

04:12:07.000 And yet, instead of choosing the easy path, he chose to endure abuse, slander, and persecution.

04:12:16.000 And he did it because he loves this country.

04:12:28.000 Look, look, no one...

04:12:28.000 Lame.

04:12:55.000 I mean, they're cheering for Trump, but they're, like, sitting down.

04:12:57.000 They're on their phones.

04:13:02.000 There's the man.

04:13:03.000 And the... That's crazy.

04:13:06.000 The wife is out there with him.

04:13:08.000 The wife does seem actually nice. 1.00

04:13:09.000 What do you call us to do for our country?

04:13:12.000 To fight.

04:13:13.000 To fight for America.

04:13:15.000 Even in his most perilous moment, we were on his mind.

04:13:19.000 His instinct was for us, for our country, to call us to something higher.

04:13:24.000 To something greater.

04:13:26.000 To once again be citizens who ask what our country needs of us.

04:13:31.000 Now consider what they said.

04:13:33.000 They said he was a tyrant.

04:13:36.000 They said he must be stopped at all costs.

04:13:39.000 They said he was a tyrant.

04:13:42.000 They said he must be stopped.

04:13:43.000 He called for national unity, for national calm, literally right after an assassin nearly took his life. 0.99

04:13:49.000 Wow, media are hypocrites. 1.00

04:13:51.000 That's crazy. 0.99

04:13:58.000 He remembered the victims of the terrible attack, especially the brave Corey Compertore, who gave his life to protect his family.

04:14:08.000 I think he just got shot.

04:14:09.000 God bless him.

04:14:13.000 And then President Trump flew to Milwaukee and got back to work.

04:14:24.000 Now that's the man I've gotten to know personally over the last few years.

04:14:29.000 He is tough, and he is, but he cares about people.

04:14:33.000 He can stand defiant against an assassin one moment and call for national healing the next.

04:14:39.000 He is a beloved father and grandfather and, of course, a once-in-a-generation business leader.

04:14:45.000 He's the man who was feared by America's adversaries, but two nights ago, and I'll share a moment, said goodnight to his two boys, told them he loved them, and made sure to give each of them a kiss on the cheek.

04:14:58.000 And I will say, Don and Eric squirmed the same way my four-year-old does when his daddy tries to give him a kiss on the cheek.

04:15:03.000 Sorry guys.

04:15:09.000 He is all those things, but tonight we celebrate he is our once and future President of the United States of America. 0.97

04:15:19.000 This guy is so lame. 0.59

04:15:24.000 Imagine if it was Ben Carson. 0.99

04:15:27.000 Totally different ballgame.

04:15:37.000 I want to respond to his call for unity myself.

04:15:41.000 We have a big tent at this party on everything from national security to economic policy.

04:15:46.000 But my message to you, my fellow Republicans, is we love this country and we are united to win.

04:15:53.000 Big tent.

04:15:59.000 Unity.

04:16:03.000 Now I think our disagreements actually make us stronger.

04:16:06.000 That's what I've learned in my time in the United States Senate, where sometimes I persuade my colleagues and sometimes they persuade me.

04:16:14.000 And my message to my fellow Americans, those watching from across the country, is shouldn't we be governed by a party that is unafraid to debate ideas and come to the best solution?

04:16:33.000 That doesn't sound very like neo-reactionary.

04:16:37.000 United in our love for this country and committed to free speech and the open exchange of ideas.

04:16:43.000 I'm glad to hear that though.

04:16:48.000 Free speech is so important because that's how you have dissidents.

04:16:51.000 And so tonight, Mr. Chairman, I stand here humbled and I'm overwhelmed with gratitude to say I officially accept your nomination to be Vice President of the United States of America.

04:17:20.000 I love that tie that Trump has.

04:17:21.000 So powerful.

04:17:22.000 So dark.

04:17:28.000 Dude, close your mouth. 0.93

04:17:29.000 It's undignified.

04:17:30.000 Now, never in my wildest imagination could I have believed that I'd be standing here tonight.

04:17:38.000 I grew up in Middletown, Ohio.

04:17:45.000 A small town where people spoke their minds, built with their hands, and loved their God, their family, their community, and their country with their whole hearts.

04:17:54.000 But it was also a place that had been cast aside and forgotten by America's ruling class in Washington.

04:18:01.000 When I was in the fourth grade, a career politician by the name of Joe Biden supported NAFTA, a bad trade deal that sent countless good jobs to Mexico.

04:18:15.000 When I was a sophomore in high school, that same career politician named Joe Biden gave China a sweetheart trade deal that destroyed even more good American middle-class manufacturing jobs.

04:18:30.000 When I was a senior in high school, that same Joe Biden supported the disastrous invasion of Iraq.

04:18:35.000 And at each step of the way, in small towns like mine in Ohio or next door in Pennsylvania or Michigan, in states all across our country, jobs were sent overseas and our children were sent to war.

04:19:13.000 I agree.

04:19:15.000 Zero aura.

04:19:16.000 And somehow, a real estate developer from New York City by the name of Donald J. Trump was right on all of these issues while Biden was wrong.

04:19:32.000 President Trump knew even then that we needed leaders who would put America first.

04:19:45.000 Now thanks to these policies that Biden and other out-of-touch politicians in Washington gave us, our country was flooded with cheap Chinese goods, with cheap foreign labor, and in the decades to come, deadly Chinese fentanyl. 0.72

04:20:00.000 Joe Biden screwed up, and my community paid the price.

04:20:05.000 Now, I was lucky.

04:20:07.000 Despite the closing factories and the growing addiction in towns like mine, in my life, I had a guardian angel by my side.

04:20:15.000 She was an old woman who could barely walk, but she was tough as nails. 1.00

04:20:20.000 I called her Mamaw, the name we hillbillies gave to our grandmothers. 0.65

04:20:32.000 Mamaw raised me as my mother struggled with addiction.

04:20:38.000 Mamaw was in so many ways a woman of contradiction. 1.00

04:20:42.000 She loved the Lord, ladies and gentlemen.

04:20:43.000 She was a woman of very deep Christian faith.

04:20:52.000 But she also loved the F word.

04:20:55.000 That's funny.

04:20:57.000 That's like my mom.

04:20:58.000 My mom's the same way.

04:20:59.000 She could make a sailor blush. 1.00

04:21:03.000 Now she once told me, when she found out that I was spending too much time with a local kid who was known for dealing drugs, that if I ever hung out with that kid again, she would run him over with her car. 0.74

04:21:19.000 That's true.

04:21:20.000 And she said, J.D., no one will ever find out about it.

04:21:42.000 Thanks to that man mall, things worked out for me.

04:21:45.000 After 9-11, I did what thousands of other young men my age did in that time of soaring patriotism and love of country.

04:21:52.000 I enlisted in the United States Marines.

04:22:04.000 Semper Fi to my fellow Marines.

04:22:08.000 I left the Marines after four years and went to THE Ohio State University.

04:22:21.000 I'm sorry, Michigan.

04:22:22.000 I had to get that in there.

04:22:33.000 Come on, come on. 0.99

04:22:35.000 We've had enough political violence.

04:22:36.000 Now, after Ohio State, I went to Yale Law School, where I met my beautiful wife.

04:22:44.000 And then I started businesses to create jobs in the kind of places that I grew up in.

04:22:49.000 Now, my work taught me that there is still so much talent and grit in the American heartland.

04:22:55.000 There really is.

04:22:56.000 But for these places to thrive, my friends, we need a leader who fights for the people who built this country.

04:23:12.000 We need a leader who's not in the pocket of big business, but answers to the working man, union and non-union alike.

04:23:26.000 A leader who won't sell out to multinational corporations, but will stand up for American companies and American industry.

04:23:40.000 A leader who rejects Joe Biden and Kamala Harris' Green News scam and fights to bring back our great American factories.

04:23:47.000 We need President Donald J. Trump.

04:24:02.000 Some people tell me I've lived the American dream, and of course they're right, and I'm so grateful for it.

04:24:07.000 But the American dream that always counted most was not starting a business, or becoming a senator, or even being here with you fine people, though it's pretty awesome.

04:24:17.000 My most important American dream was becoming a good husband and a good dad.

04:24:21.000 Of being able to give... I wanted to give my kids the things that I didn't have when I was growing up.

04:24:34.000 And that's the accomplishment that I'm proudest of.

04:24:38.000 My fellow humans,

04:25:07.000 Every now and then, I will get a call from a relative back home who asks, did you know so-and-so?

04:25:13.000 And I'll remember a face from years ago, and then I'll hear, they died of an overdose.

04:25:18.000 As always, America's ruling class wrote the checks.

04:25:21.000 Communities like mine paid the price.

04:25:24.000 For decades, that divide between the few with their power and comfort in Washington and the rest of us only widened.

04:25:31.000 From Iraq to Afghanistan, from the financial crisis to the Great Recession, from open borders to stagnating wages, the people who govern this country have failed and failed again.

04:25:51.000 That is, of course, until a guy named Donald J. Trump came along.

04:26:00.000 President Trump represents America's last best hope to restore what, if lost, may never be found again.

04:26:07.000 A country where a working class boy born far from the halls of power can stand on this stage as the next Vice President of the United States of America. 0.85

04:26:20.000 This is an act.

04:26:21.000 Does everybody realize that this is a put-on act?

04:26:25.000 This whole, look at me, I'm happy to be here.

04:26:30.000 This is an act. 0.96

04:26:32.000 You don't get 15 million from Peter Thiel to become a senator and then get tapped to be VP a year later by being a goofy baby boy.

04:26:40.000 My fellow Americans here in this stage and watching at home, this moment is not about me, it's about all of us.

04:26:48.000 And it's about who we're fighting for.

04:26:50.000 It's about the autoworker in Michigan wondering why out-of-touch politicians are destroying their jobs.

04:26:58.000 It's about the factory worker in Wisconsin who makes things with their hands and is proud of American craftsmanship.

04:27:10.000 It's about the energy worker in Pennsylvania and Ohio who doesn't understand why Joe Biden is willing to buy energy from tin-pot dictators across the world when he could buy it from his own citizens right here in our own country.

04:27:53.000 You guys are a great crowd.

04:27:55.000 Wow.

04:28:20.000 Got a tweet.

04:28:21.000 Got a tweet real quick.

04:28:25.000 I was gonna tweet something else but I forgot. 0.99

04:29:08.000 Ah shit! 1.00

04:29:09.000 Typo! 1.00

04:29:10.000 Delete!

04:29:10.000 Don't retweet it!

04:29:12.000 Let me, let me, let me do it again.

04:29:14.000 Let me do it again and then retweet it. 1.00

04:29:20.000 Shit. 1.00

04:29:26.000 Shit. 1.00

04:29:29.000 Oh no, did I not copy it? 0.99

04:29:36.000 Let me redo it, then retweet it.

04:29:41.000 And you know, Mom, I was thinking, it'll be 10 years officially in January of 2025, and if President Trump's okay with it, let's have the celebration in the White House.

04:30:12.000 And our movement, ladies and gentlemen, it's about grandparents all across this country who are living on social security and raising grandchildren they didn't expect to raise.

04:30:23.000 And while we're on the topic of grandparents, let me tell you another mamaw story.

04:30:26.000 Now, my mamaw died shortly before I left for Iraq in 2005.

04:30:30.000 And when we went through her things, we found 19 loaded handguns.

04:30:43.000 Alright, there we go.

04:30:45.000 Now retweet it, now retweet it.

04:30:52.000 Now, the thing is, they were stashed all over her house.

04:30:56.000 Under her bed, in her closet, in the silverware drawer.

04:31:01.000 And we wondered what was going on.

04:31:04.000 And it occurred to us that towards the end of her life, Mamaw couldn't get around so well. 0.96

04:31:08.000 And so this frail old woman made sure that no matter where she was, she was within arm's length of whatever she needed to protect her family.

04:31:16.000 That's who we fight for.

04:31:17.000 That's American spirit.

04:31:46.000 Joe Biden has been a politician in Washington for longer than I've been alive.

04:31:51.000 39 years old.

04:31:52.000 Kamala Harris is not much further behind.

04:31:56.000 For half a century, he's been the champion of every major policy initiative to make America weaker and poorer.

04:32:05.000 And in four short years, Donald Trump reversed decades of betrayals inflicted by Joe Biden and the rest of the corrupt Washington insiders.

04:32:23.000 He created the greatest economy in history for workers.

04:32:27.000 It really was amazing.

04:32:29.000 There's this chart that shows worker wages, and they stagnated for pretty much my entire life until President Donald J. Trump came along.

04:32:38.000 Workers' wages went through the roof.

04:32:46.000 And just imagine what he's going to do when we give him four more years.

04:33:16.000 Months ago, I heard some young family member observe that their parents' generation, the Baby Boomers, could afford to buy a home when they first entered the workforce.

04:33:25.000 But I don't know, this person observed, if I'll ever be able to afford a home.

04:33:30.000 The absurd cost of housing is the result of so many failures, and it reveals so much about what's broken in Washington.

04:33:39.000 I can tell you exactly how it happened.

04:33:42.000 Wall Street barons crashed the economy and American builders went out of business.

04:33:48.000 As tradesmen scrambled for jobs, houses stopped being built.

04:33:52.000 The lack of good jobs, of course, led to stagnant wages.

04:33:56.000 And then the Democrats flooded this country with millions of illegal aliens.

04:34:05.000 So citizens had to compete with people who shouldn't even be here for precious housing.

04:34:13.000 Joe Biden's inflation crisis, my friends, is really an affordability crisis.

04:34:18.000 And many of the people that I grew up with can't afford to pay more for groceries, more for gas, more for rent, and that's exactly what Joe Biden's economy has given them.

04:34:48.000 So prices soared, dreams were shattered, and China and the cartels sent fentanyl across the border, adding addiction to the heartache.

04:34:58.000 But ladies and gentlemen, that is not the end of our story.

04:35:04.000 We've heard about villains and their victims.

04:35:06.000 I've talked a lot about that.

04:35:07.000 But let me tell you about the future.

04:35:10.000 President Trump's vision is so simple and yet so powerful.

04:35:16.000 We're done, ladies and gentlemen, catering to Wall Street.

04:35:19.000 We'll commit to the working man. 0.98

04:35:22.000 Silicon Valley.

04:35:30.000 We're done importing foreign labor.

04:35:32.000 We're going to fight for American citizens and their good jobs and their good wages.

04:35:39.000 Yeah, green cars to diplomas.

04:35:45.000 We're done buying energy from countries that hate us.

04:35:47.000 We're going to get it right here from American workers in Pennsylvania, in Ohio, and across the country.

04:35:58.000 We're done sacrificing supply chains to unlimited global trade, and we're going to stamp more and more products with that beautiful label, Made in the USA.

04:36:17.000 Why are you clapping? 1.00

04:36:19.000 Why are you clapping, you idiot? 1.00

04:36:21.000 We're going to build factories again, put people to work making real products for American families made with the hands of American workers. 1.00

04:36:33.000 What are we going to make?

04:36:34.000 Textiles?

04:36:39.000 We're not making anything.

04:36:39.000 Chips?

04:36:39.000 Machines?

04:36:41.000 We're gonna make more oil.

04:36:43.000 And dollars.

04:37:00.000 Together, we will make sure our allies share in the burden of securing world peace.

04:37:07.000 No more free rides for nations that betray the generosity of the American taxpayer.

04:37:12.000 Like Israel? 0.75

04:37:13.000 Or just Ukraine?

04:37:21.000 Together, we will send our kids to war only when we must. 0.64

04:37:25.000 But as President Trump showed with the elimination of ISIS and so much more, when we punch, we're going to punch hard.

04:37:42.000 Together, we will put the citizens of America first, whatever the color of their skin.

04:37:47.000 We will, in short, make America great again.

04:38:05.000 You know, one of the things that you hear people say sometimes is that America is an idea.

04:38:11.000 And to be clear, America was indeed founded on brilliant ideas like the rule of law and religious liberty, things written into the fabric of our Constitution and our nation.

04:38:22.000 But America is not just an idea.

04:38:25.000 It is a group of people with a shared history and a common future.

04:38:30.000 It is, in short, a nation.

04:38:34.000 Now it is part of that tradition, of course, that we welcome newcomers.

04:38:37.000 But when we allow newcomers into our American family, we allow them on our terms. 1.00

04:38:43.000 They have to come legally!

04:38:46.000 America's not an idea.

04:38:48.000 It's a nation.

04:38:49.000 A nation of immigrants.

04:38:51.000 Legal immigrants.

04:38:52.000 That's the way we preserve the continuity of this project from 250 years past to hopefully 250 years in the future.

04:39:05.000 It sounds like us, but it's not like us.

04:39:07.000 And let me illustrate this with a story, if I may.

04:39:08.000 At all.

04:39:09.000 I'm, of course, married to the daughter of South Asian immigrants to this country.

04:39:12.000 There you go.

04:39:12.000 Incredible people.

04:39:14.000 People who genuinely have enriched this country in so many ways.

04:39:16.000 Is he going to tell the story about the Ohio Cemetery, or what?

04:39:18.000 Of course, I'm biased, because I love my wife and her family, but it's true.

04:39:21.000 He gave the same speech at NACCON.

04:39:22.000 Now, I proposed to my wife.

04:39:24.000 We were in law school, and I said, honey, I come with $120,000 worth of law school debt and a cemetery plot on a mountainside in eastern Kentucky.

04:39:37.000 When me and my wife are hopefully buried there and my children, there'll be seven generations in the cemetery.

04:39:46.000 And I guess standing here tonight, it's just gotten weirder and weirder, honey.

04:39:53.000 But that's what she was getting.

04:39:54.000 Now that cemetery plot in eastern Kentucky is near my family's ancestral home.

04:39:59.000 And like a lot of people, we came from the mountains of Appalachia into the factories of Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.

04:40:14.000 Now that's Kentucky coal country, one of the ten... Now, it's one of the ten poorest counties in the entire United States of America.

04:40:30.000 They are very hard-working people, and they're very good people.

04:40:33.000 They're the kind of people who would give you the shirt off their back even if they can't afford enough to eat.

04:40:38.000 And our media calls them privileged and looks down on them.

04:40:42.000 But they love this country not only because it's a good idea, but because in their bones they know that this is their home.

04:40:51.000 And it will be their children's home, and they would die fighting to protect it.

04:41:01.000 But now it's also the home for immigrants. 0.74

04:41:07.000 That is the source of America's greatness.

04:41:07.000 Legal immigrants.

04:41:11.000 As a United States Senator, I get to represent millions of people in the great state of Ohio with similar stories, and it is the great honor of my life.

04:41:18.000 Now in that cemetery, there are people who were born around the time of the Civil War.

04:41:23.000 And if, as I hope, my wife and I are eventually laid to rest there,

04:41:27.000 and our kids follow us, there will be seven generations just in that small mountain cemetery plot in eastern Kentucky.

04:41:34.000 Seven generations of people who have fought for this country, who have built this country, who have made things in this country, and who would fight and die to protect this country if they were asked to.

04:41:47.000 But that's not true.

04:41:49.000 You have white people from the Civil War until now, and then an Indian immigrant, and then Indian kids. 0.62

04:41:54.000 Now that's not just an idea, my friends.

04:41:56.000 From India.

04:41:57.000 That's not just a set of principles, even though the ideas and the principles are great.

04:42:01.000 What else is it?

04:42:02.000 That is a homeland.

04:42:03.000 That is our homeland.

04:42:05.000 And Indian immigrants' homeland.

04:42:09.000 Who came here 20 years ago, 50 years ago.

04:42:11.000 People will not fight for abstractions, but they will fight for their home.

04:42:16.000 And if this movement... What makes it our home?

04:42:19.000 We all live here.

04:42:20.000 And if this country is going to thrive, our leaders have to remember that America is a nation, and its citizens deserve leaders who put its interests first.

04:42:33.000 I said this all on my Telegram channel today, by the way.

04:42:36.000 I watched his speech from last week.

04:42:40.000 Now we won't agree on every issue, of course, not even in this room.

04:42:44.000 We may disagree from time to time about how best to reinvigorate American industry and renew American family.

04:42:49.000 That's fine.

04:42:50.000 In fact, it's more than fine.

04:42:52.000 It's good.

04:42:53.000 But never forget that the reason why this united Republican Party exists, why we do this, why we care about those great ideas and that great history, is that we want this nation to thrive for centuries to come.

04:43:16.000 Now eventually in that mountain cemetery, my children will lay me to rest.

04:43:22.000 And when they do, I would like them to know that thanks to the work of this Republican Party, the United States of America is as strong and as proud and as great as ever.

04:43:37.000 No aura.

04:43:41.000 And it's going downhill.

04:43:45.000 That is who we serve, my friends.

04:43:47.000 That is who we fight for.

04:43:48.000 And the only thing that we need to do right now, the most important thing that we can do for those people, for that American nation that we all love, is to re-elect Donald J. Trump, President of the United States.

04:44:21.000 Mr. President, I will never take for granted the trust you have put in me, and what an honor it is to help achieve the extraordinary vision that you have for this country.

04:44:33.000 I pledge to every American, no matter your party, I will give you everything I have to serve you and to make this country a place where every dream you have for yourself, your family, and your country will be possible once again.

04:44:58.000 And I promise you one more thing.

04:45:00.000 To the people of Middletown, Ohio, and all the forgotten communities in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Ohio, and every corner of our nation, I promise you this.

04:45:11.000 I will be a vice president who never forgets where he came from. 0.99

04:45:20.000 How'd you get the endorsement, fuckface? 0.99

04:45:26.000 Seemed to have forgotten that. 0.99

04:45:33.000 Well, yeah, you'll be loyal to him.

04:45:36.000 Appalachia.

04:45:40.000 And every single day for the next four years when I walk into that White House to help President Trump, I will be doing it for you.

04:45:46.000 For your family, for your future, and for this great country.

04:45:50.000 Thank you, God bless all of you, and God bless our great country.

04:45:56.000 It's a put-on.

04:45:58.000 He betrayed all the good people.

04:46:00.000 I don't want to go into detail, but... 1.00

04:46:04.000 This guy's a traitor. 0.98

04:46:16.000 Alright. 0.99

04:46:20.000 Meemaw! 1.00

04:46:26.000 Who's she? 0.97

04:46:28.000 Hello.

04:46:31.000 Oh, wait.

04:46:32.000 Ew, she's got a tattoo.

04:46:36.000 Never mind.

04:46:41.000 Very wasteful.

04:46:53.000 The teeth are a little messed up.

04:46:53.000 And the teeth.

04:46:56.000 Anyway.

04:46:57.000 Well, there you have it.

04:46:58.000 There's your Vice President, J.D.

04:47:00.000 Vance.

04:47:02.000 Very canned.

04:47:03.000 This whole folksy, Midwestern, Rust Belt thing, that's a shtick.

04:47:09.000 Look at the tattoos.

04:47:10.000 That's so wasteful.

04:47:12.000 Never get tattoos.

04:47:14.000 Never get tattoos.

04:47:16.000 Why would you spoil your beautiful white skin? 0.98

04:47:21.000 Or any skin for that matter with disgusting tattoos. 1.00

04:47:23.000 Terrible. 0.97

04:47:24.000 Anyway.

04:47:28.000 So, like I was saying, this whole Midwestern Rust Belt thing, it's an act.

04:47:33.000 This guy's a Yale-educated lawyer.

04:47:36.000 He's not a Marine.

04:47:38.000 Look up his service.

04:47:39.000 He wasn't in combat.

04:47:40.000 He was a photographer.

04:47:43.000 So this whole story, it does remind me of Pete Buttigieg.

04:47:48.000 He's really checking all the boxes because he's a sociopath that's been seeking political office probably since he was a kid.

04:47:56.000 Write a memoir about the white working class.

04:48:00.000 Book deal, Netflix deal, CNN.

04:48:04.000 Call Trump.

04:48:05.000 And let's not forget, he called Trump Hitler. 0.98

04:48:07.000 Called Trump a racist.

04:48:11.000 And he said he only became a Trump supporter because he realized none of that was true.

04:48:15.000 In other words, realized Trump is more moderate.

04:48:18.000 They're going to adjourn.

04:48:44.000 All right, they'll adjourn.

04:48:45.000 I'll talk a little bit, then we'll do super chats.

04:48:52.000 Delegates and alternates, Republicans around the world, tonight, in this hall, we had a chance to see what strength is like.

04:49:12.000 Strength looks like

04:49:14.000 Heartbroken Gold Star families talking about their loved ones and talking about their loss.

04:49:25.000 Strength looks like fraternity brothers facing down a hostile crowd to save the American flag.

04:49:36.000 Seriously?

04:49:39.000 Strength looks like

04:49:43.000 Alright.

04:49:44.000 Wrap it up.

04:49:52.000 Strength tonight looks like all of the soldiers and the sailors and the airmen and the marines around the world keeping America safe home and abroad.

04:50:06.000 Strength looks like a teenage daughter 0.92

04:50:11.000 Standing on this stage, talking to America about the love that she has for her grandfather.

04:50:19.000 Read the room.

04:50:20.000 Total vibe killer.

04:50:23.000 Strength looks like a kid born in rural Appalachia who put himself through school and answered a call to service when America needed him and joined the Marines.

04:50:42.000 Act like he was over there killing terrorists.

04:50:49.000 Like he was over there kicking down doors and driving over IEDs.

04:50:53.000 He was a photographer.

04:50:55.000 They needed him.

04:51:09.000 Who has suffered hoax after hoax after hoax.

04:51:15.000 Who has endured politically motivated prosecutions and lawsuits all across the country.

04:51:25.000 And who, when he was knocked down by a would-be assassin's bullet, got back up and encouraged America to fight, fight, fight.

04:51:41.000 Okay!

04:51:41.000 Okay.

04:51:45.000 We get it!

04:52:12.000 For tonight's benediction, please welcome the lead pastor at Bayou Blue Assembly in Houma, Louisiana, Pastor Paki Thompson.

04:52:31.000 Well, hello Milwaukee!

04:52:35.000 I bring you greetings from the great state of Louisiana.

04:52:41.000 From my church, Bayou Blue Assembly of God in Houma, Louisiana.

04:52:45.000 And from the small town I grew up in, in Gena, Louisiana.

04:52:51.000 I am proud to be with all of you here tonight for this historic convention.

04:52:57.000 And I thank my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, for his blessings.

04:53:01.000 It's a footnote.

04:53:02.000 Every night it's just a footnote.

04:53:08.000 And I would like to thank President Trump for all that he has done for our country.

04:53:13.000 I want you to know, sir, that you are loved and respected in my state of Louisiana.

04:53:24.000 Would y'all stand and pray with me, please?

04:53:27.000 Heavenly Father, we are grateful for your mercy and your protection here tonight.

04:53:33.000 Father, we give you glory

04:53:36.000 In honor, because you alone deserve to be honored.

04:53:40.000 Father, I give you, I thank you for giving us a man to stand in the gap for us.

04:53:47.000 A man who has made up the hedge for the American people.

04:53:51.000 A man who has protected our nation from those who would harm us.

04:53:56.000 Father, we thank you for raising up President Donald J. Trump to be the 47th President of the United States of America.

04:54:05.000 And I also thank you for protecting him from the evil that was perpetrated last Saturday.

04:54:12.000 Father, I ask that you would unite our country once again

04:54:17.000 A nation, Lord God, under your leadership.

04:54:20.000 Father, God, help us to elect leaders that will help us to become the lead country in the world, to hold the values that our forefathers intended for us when they drafted the Declaration of Independence and the Bill of Rights.

04:54:36.000 Father, I ask that you would help us to elect men and women of God who will protect the rights that were promised to every American.

04:54:45.000 Protect us from tyranny and restore truth back to the public square.

04:54:51.000 Father, I pray for the Donald J. Trump and J.D.

04:54:55.000 Vance tonight, that you would give them grace, strength, and wisdom to guide our country once again.

04:55:02.000 And Father, God, help make America great once again.

04:55:06.000 I ask it in Jesus' name, and everybody said, Amen!

04:55:10.000 Yeah!

04:55:18.000 The chair recognizes the delegate from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the purpose of offering a motion.

04:55:25.000 Mr. Chairman, I am Fred Keller from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the birthplace of America.

04:55:32.000 I make the motion that this convention now adjourn.

04:55:36.000 The question now occurs on the motion to adjourn.

04:55:40.000 All those in favor signify by saying aye.

04:55:43.000 Aye.

04:55:44.000 All those opposed, no.

04:55:48.000 In the opinion of the chair, the ayes have it and the motion is adopted.

04:55:52.000 Accordingly, this convention stands adjourned until 5 p.m.

04:55:56.000 tomorrow.

04:55:57.000 Thank you.

04:55:59.000 Well, there's your day three of the convention.

04:56:02.000 Another tough watch.

04:56:08.000 Well, I'll do a little analysis and then we'll take super chats and then I'm gonna go.

04:56:15.000 But just want to say thanks, everybody, for tuning in.

04:56:17.000 Another huge day on Rumble, over 20,000 viewers.

04:56:21.000 I appreciate you tuning in and joining us here.

04:56:25.000 It's been a pretty unbelievable huge week for my channel here.

04:56:29.000 I think I've been the top channel on Rumble besides GOP, Trump, RSBN, sometimes even bigger than the GOP channel.

04:56:37.000 So I appreciate all the support.

04:56:39.000 I'll be back here tomorrow, same time.

04:56:43.000 Doing our coverage of the final day, and tomorrow's the big day because tomorrow's when Trump speaks.

04:56:47.000 Trump will give his first official.

04:56:49.000 He did a little speech today in a small event outside the RNC, but he'll be giving his first official speech since he was almost assassinated on Saturday tomorrow, and that is when he is formally nominated.

04:57:05.000 So tomorrow's gonna be the big day.

04:57:07.000 Tomorrow's Make America Great Again.

04:57:09.000 It's Trump.

04:57:10.000 It's the big one.

04:57:11.000 So everybody, please tune in.

04:57:12.000 Smash the follow button.

04:57:14.000 We'll be back tomorrow covering the finale.

04:57:18.000 And then Friday I'll be doing a normal show at 8 o'clock.

04:57:21.000 Normally I do the show every weeknight at 8.

04:57:24.000 So Friday I'll be back.

04:57:26.000 I'm a real trooper, you have to admit.

04:57:28.000 Now that I'm in the new studio, we're not playing around.

04:57:31.000 So tomorrow I'll be live around 5, 6.

04:57:35.000 And then Friday I'll be here at 8 o'clock doing my normal show.

04:57:41.000 But with that, I want to talk a little bit about the convention today.

04:57:45.000 We're off to a good start.

04:57:46.000 A lot of talk about illegal immigration.

04:57:51.000 Good speech by Tom Homan, by Peter Navarro.

04:57:54.000 They gave some very strong remarks about illegals.

04:57:57.000 World War II veteran was good to see.

04:57:59.000 It was not the diversity fest that we saw on Monday. 0.86

04:58:04.000 And the ridiculous social liberalism, licentiousness, all of that.

04:58:11.000 So if Monday is the bar, a very, very bad bar to set, then today, like yesterday, was better and it was off to a good start.

04:58:18.000 Is that Louis Farrakhan?

04:58:20.000 Probably not.

04:58:23.000 Looks similar, though.

04:58:25.000 And anyway, but the night very quickly took a turn.

04:58:28.000 The theme tonight was Make America Strong Again.

04:58:31.000 So, ostensibly, this is about, I think, foreign affairs, but it seemed like a mix.

04:58:38.000 Yesterday was Make America Safe Again.

04:58:40.000 It was about public safety, crime, and a little bit about immigration.

04:58:45.000 Tonight, Make America Strong Again seemed to be about foreign policy, also immigration.

04:58:51.000 Here's the thing I want to say, and I want to qualify my praise of the discussion of illegal immigration.

04:58:57.000 I'm going to repeat what I said earlier, which is that the problem is that Republicans are still treating immigration like a law enforcement issue and not a cultural and a social issue, or even for that matter, an economic issue, even more to the point.

04:59:14.000 When Republicans talk about illegal immigration, look at this.

04:59:19.000 Chabad.

04:59:19.000 Look at this.

04:59:21.000 You got Chabad Lubavitchers. 1.00

04:59:23.000 Awesome.

04:59:24.000 Anyway, that's so typical.

04:59:25.000 Mike Johnson and the closest allies.

04:59:27.000 Real handsome guy there.

04:59:29.000 Anyway, when Republicans talk about illegal immigration, it sounds good. 1.00

04:59:34.000 They say, send them back, build the wall.

04:59:37.000 But why?

04:59:38.000 Why do they oppose illegal immigration?

04:59:42.000 They talk about drugs, like fentanyl.

04:59:44.000 They talk about interdiction of drugs, illicit drugs.

04:59:48.000 They talk about terrorism and the threat of foreign adversaries crossing the border.

04:59:53.000 Chinese spies, terrorists from the Middle East, Venezuela. 0.98

04:59:57.000 They talk about violent criminals, murderers, rapists, and, you know, they're part of that. 0.98

05:00:02.000 They talk about the cartels and the normal flow of drugs like cocaine or heroin.

05:00:10.000 And all of those issues are law enforcement issues.

05:00:14.000 It's never about the people.

05:00:17.000 They're talking about, strictly speaking, controlling the border as a law enforcement issue.

05:00:22.000 It's not even necessarily about the level of immigration and the amount of people that are coming in.

05:00:28.000 It's not about the economic impact of the people.

05:00:32.000 It's not about the changing demographics.

05:00:34.000 It's not about the change in culture, that they don't speak English.

05:00:38.000 That they're not from here.

05:00:39.000 They come from third world countries. 0.99

05:00:41.000 It's not about their race, ethnicity, prospects.

05:00:45.000 It's always about that they've done it illegally.

05:00:50.000 And so that's why it's between safe and strong, because for them, it's all about law enforcement.

05:00:57.000 And for 40 years, they've talked about securing the border.

05:01:00.000 It's never happened.

05:01:01.000 For 40 years, it's been strictly a law enforcement issue.

05:01:04.000 And for 40 years, by the way, Republicans have been in favor of all the immigration.

05:01:09.000 Republicans have allowed illegal immigration.

05:01:13.000 They've allowed illegal immigration because it's big agriculture that benefits from the cheap labor.

05:01:21.000 It's the hotel chains.

05:01:23.000 It's other major firms in the country that are benefiting from the cheap labor that can only be provided by illegal immigration from Latin America. 0.81

05:01:34.000 And the big agricultural firms and other firms, big corporations, they fund the Republican Party.

05:01:42.000 And so the Republican Party will come to the base and say, we're against immigration, but they never secure the border because their donors benefit from it.

05:01:52.000 And look no further than Greg Abbott.

05:01:55.000 Greg Abbott has allowed some of the major donors in Texas to build a colony of illegal immigrants. 0.90

05:02:01.000 They've done nothing about this.

05:02:03.000 That's because they benefit from it.

05:02:07.000 But they're also in favor of legal immigration.

05:02:10.000 They're also in favor of the high-skilled immigration that comes from Asia, that comes predominantly from China and India.

05:02:16.000 They're in favor of giving permanent residency and green cards, that's what that is, to foreign students.

05:02:23.000 They're in favor of expanding the amount of work visas.

05:02:27.000 And they say that we need highly skilled, merit-based immigration, rather than chain or family-based migration.

05:02:34.000 But it's really similar.

05:02:37.000 They're not against the current level of immigration, which is very high, legal and illegal.

05:02:43.000 They're not against the composition of the immigration, which, if it comes from Latin America or Asia, if anything, the Hispanics are more similar to us.

05:02:51.000 The Asians might be higher IQ, but the Latin Americans have a higher admixture of European DNA and are Christian.

05:02:59.000 So it's like pick your poison.

05:03:01.000 And the higher IQ immigrants from Asia, they replace the cognitive elite. 1.00

05:03:07.000 The low IQ immigrants, at least they're not replacing us in the elite schools or in the business world necessarily. 1.00

05:03:14.000 You see, it's the Indians that are taking over the tech companies. 1.00

05:03:16.000 It's the Indians that are exerting their influence in politics, less so than Hispanics. 0.99

05:03:21.000 It's an imported underclass versus overclass. 1.00

05:03:25.000 But point is, none of them are white.

05:03:28.000 None of them share our culture.

05:03:29.000 None of them speak our language.

05:03:32.000 And you're getting a high volume of them anyway.

05:03:35.000 They're taking jobs.

05:03:36.000 They're invading the neighborhoods.

05:03:38.000 They're colonizing, whether they're from the Caribbean, Latin America, Africa, Asia. 0.95

05:03:42.000 They're pouring into the neighborhoods, whether it's Seattle or it's Texas.

05:03:46.000 They're invading the country.

05:03:48.000 Republicans do not oppose this.

05:03:50.000 They do not oppose the social, cultural changes, the racial demographics.

05:03:55.000 They don't oppose the current level of immigration.

05:03:57.000 They don't oppose the free movement of people into our country.

05:04:02.000 What they oppose, and this is what they say, what they oppose is people coming in illegally.

05:04:09.000 But here's the rub, here's why.

05:04:13.000 It's because Republicans are very liberal.

05:04:16.000 And Republicans believe, like Democrats, like liberals, it's a consensus.

05:04:21.000 Democrats and Republicans want the people because corporations want the people.

05:04:26.000 Silicon Valley and Wall Street and big agriculture want the people.

05:04:31.000 They want the immigrants. 1.00

05:04:32.000 The schools want the people.

05:04:35.000 So the elites of America that own the firms, the land,

05:04:41.000 That hire the employees and their biggest cost is labor.

05:04:45.000 They want the labor. 1.00

05:04:46.000 They want the cheap, high skilled temporary work visas.

05:04:49.000 They want the cheap berry pickers and watermelon pickers.

05:04:52.000 They want the labor. 1.00

05:04:54.000 And when it's cheaper to offshore, then they send the jobs overseas.

05:04:57.000 So it's really all about.

05:05:00.000 It's all about cost for the capitalist class, the capitalists.

05:05:06.000 When they can get the labor done cheaply in Indonesia or Malaysia or Vietnam or China, they ship the jobs over there. 0.64

05:05:13.000 If they have to have it done in America, working land, working farmland, they import the labor from Mexico and El Salvador and Guatemala. 0.83

05:05:22.000 Or when they need developers, when they need programmers, they get Indians. 1.00

05:05:26.000 They bring Indians into our best schools and hire them on the cheap with a work visa. 1.00

05:05:31.000 And then we have the cheapest programmers doing the slave code jockeying.

05:05:37.000 So that's why Republicans and Democrats who are getting money from the PayPal mafia, from the big donors, that's why it's the same.

05:05:37.000 Okay?

05:05:47.000 And this proceeds from the idea that Republicans and Democrats share.

05:05:52.000 That's the economic thing behind it.

05:05:54.000 But Republicans and Democrats both believe in diversity.

05:05:58.000 They both believe in multiculturalism.

05:06:00.000 They both believe that races are interchangeable.

05:06:04.000 Because what's happening as a consequence of all this is that whites are becoming the minority in America. 0.64

05:06:09.000 And this is having a profound and significant effect on American society.

05:06:15.000 I don't care what you think.

05:06:16.000 I don't care what your opinion is.

05:06:18.000 I don't care how you feel about it.

05:06:20.000 That's a fact.

05:06:21.000 America was, since 1600 at Plymouth Rock to 1970, a 90% white country.

05:06:31.000 Before America was founded, the American settlements were all white.

05:06:37.000 And when America was founded, the country was mostly white.

05:06:40.000 And up until the last generation, America was mostly white. 0.52

05:06:44.000 The vast majority was white.

05:06:47.000 And as late as 1990, as late as 1990, 50% of Americans descended from the founding stock.

05:06:50.000 Think about that.

05:06:52.000 In 1990, 50% of all living Americans descended from the founding stock that were there at 1776.

05:06:58.000 Half.

05:07:12.000 Now, we have the largest foreign-born immigrant population in the world.

05:07:17.000 Now the country is 60% white.

05:07:20.000 Forget about founding stock, it's 60% or less white. 0.97

05:07:26.000 And this is accelerating.

05:07:28.000 And by 2100, whites will be a tiny minority. 0.63

05:07:32.000 The country will be mostly Asian, Hispanic, or African, or black.

05:07:40.000 And the country will change in profound ways because the people that are coming here are not interchangeable.

05:07:46.000 And I prefer that word because it gets around this word of equality.

05:07:50.000 Equality is a tricky concept.

05:07:52.000 We all know that we're not equal.

05:07:55.000 I'm a shorter guy.

05:07:58.000 I wasn't.

05:07:59.000 My height is not equal to a taller person's height. 1.00

05:08:04.000 Some people are born dumber. 0.99

05:08:07.000 Some people are born in a wheelchair. 0.99

05:08:09.000 Some people are born in all shapes and sizes with all different aptitudes.

05:08:16.000 None of us are equal because we're not the same.

05:08:19.000 Equality means same.

05:08:21.000 You know, when there's an equality, it means they're the same. 0.70

05:08:25.000 So we understand that we're equal in a different sense.

05:08:28.000 We're equal in a spiritual way.

05:08:29.000 We're equal before God.

05:08:32.000 We're not born equal because we're all different in an incalculable number of ways, qualitative and quantitative.

05:08:39.000 So I prefer the word interchangeable because it kind of gets around this.

05:08:42.000 People start to say, oh, you think you're better?

05:08:43.000 You think you're that?

05:08:44.000 Well, we're not interchangeable.

05:08:46.000 White people are different than black people. 1.00

05:08:49.000 Black culture is different than white culture. 1.00

05:08:52.000 Black people have been on the land for 400 years, like white people, but their culture is very different. 0.99

05:08:58.000 They speak a different dialect of English.

05:09:02.000 They like different music.

05:09:03.000 They dress differently.

05:09:05.000 Their hair is different.

05:09:06.000 They treat their hair differently.

05:09:08.000 Their values are different.

05:09:11.000 You know, in the movie White Men Can't Jump, 0.93

05:09:13.000 They say white people care about winning, black people care about looking good. 0.86

05:09:18.000 You know, we could all think of ways in which black and white people are different.

05:09:21.000 But the differences persist.

05:09:23.000 The racial differences persist.

05:09:25.000 The culture proceeds from the race. 0.98

05:09:28.000 Because genetics, the DNA, which is the blueprint for who we are, determines a lot.

05:09:33.000 It determines not just physical attributes, but cognitive attributes, mental attributes, psychological attributes.

05:09:40.000 They say the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree.

05:09:42.000 That's not just because of the environment in which we're raised.

05:09:45.000 It's also because of our genetics.

05:09:47.000 And there is a regression to the mean in adulthood.

05:09:52.000 So when we get a country that is mostly non-white as opposed to mostly white and a very particular kind of white person, the country's going to be different. 0.56

05:10:01.000 It's not going to be the way it was.

05:10:03.000 It's not going to have the same culture.

05:10:04.000 It's not going to have the same amount of geniuses.

05:10:07.000 It's not going to have the same amount of high IQ people that can do

05:10:11.000 We're good to go.

05:10:23.000 And as such, we're not going to have the same level of self-governance.

05:10:28.000 People with a lower IQ cannot govern themselves in the way that a higher IQ people can.

05:10:35.000 People that have no history of democracy or republicanism or the rule of law are not going to be able to be self-governing.

05:10:44.000 You know, there's this idea about even Russians that the Russian people are a horizontal people.

05:10:52.000 They're sort of eternal serfs.

05:10:54.000 That's why communism was attractive to them as opposed to attractive to English people or Germans. 0.52

05:10:58.000 Even within the white race, there are these differences.

05:11:02.000 And so they say they crave this Cesaro papism.

05:11:05.000 They crave a strong leader.

05:11:07.000 That's why they transition from a czar to a general secretary to a president in name only.

05:11:14.000 So when we have this population of lower IQ, non-democratic, pagan, shamanistic people, they're not going to live and the economy will not be organized the same way. 1.00

05:11:26.000 They can't do the same tasks.

05:11:28.000 The underclass will be bigger. 0.99

05:11:30.000 We will not have a self-governing, liberal, pluralistic system because those are not the values that these people have practiced for thousands and thousands of years.

05:11:41.000 And the culture will not be transmitted in a generation.

05:11:46.000 You know, there's this idea of assimilation.

05:11:48.000 It's debatable whether assimilation even can occur, but let's say it can. 1.00

05:11:52.000 It certainly can happen when it's such a rapid transition.

05:11:56.000 The country went from 90% white to 90% non-white in a century. 0.74

05:12:00.000 If there is such a thing as assimilation, it doesn't happen that quickly.

05:12:04.000 It doesn't happen when the demographic change is so overwhelming.

05:12:07.000 And white people ourselves are in a crisis.

05:12:09.000 Even we don't understand our history.

05:12:11.000 How are they going to understand our history, even if it was possible?

05:12:15.000 It's not happening.

05:12:18.000 So that's why it's important to say that what it means to be an American, it does actually have something to do with being European.

05:12:26.000 It does have something to do with being Christian.

05:12:28.000 It does actually have something to do with being English or being part of the founding stock.

05:12:34.000 There was a self-selection bias.

05:12:36.000 When people left Europe, when they left the comfort of Europe to come and be pioneers and settle the frontier, those were particular kinds of people.

05:12:44.000 Many people went home.

05:12:46.000 I'm Italian.

05:12:47.000 Many Italians came here, and many of them went back.

05:12:51.000 And so there's a selection bias.

05:12:52.000 There's a certain kind of person that came here.

05:12:55.000 They were not only European and Christian, but they were also a certain kind of person.

05:13:00.000 And they shared a history here for hundreds of years.

05:13:04.000 And so we're gonna get a different country.

05:13:06.000 It won't be America. 0.96

05:13:09.000 It won't be the American nation. 0.97

05:13:10.000 It won't be that discrete and distinct set of people with their distinct culture and their distinct values and their distinct genetic cluster and the distinct texture of life that they had in all these different places, subtly different everywhere, different in New Orleans, then in New York City, then in Chicago, then in Los Angeles, but all similar in a certain sense.

05:13:31.000 And so when Republicans don't care about the immigration, it's because they don't believe in any of that.

05:13:38.000 They value diversity.

05:13:40.000 They are multiracialists.

05:13:42.000 They are multiculturalists. 0.86

05:13:44.000 They don't care that American identity is being killed.

05:13:48.000 They don't care that people like Doug Burgum won't be born anymore.

05:13:52.000 People that look like George Washington won't be born anymore. 0.89

05:13:56.000 They won't be made anymore.

05:13:58.000 Because those people aren't having kids. 1.00

05:14:00.000 And those people don't have a homeland.

05:14:03.000 So there won't be 6'3", handsome, blue-eyed men with bushy eyebrows that look like George Washington.

05:14:11.000 They won't exist.

05:14:13.000 Those Americans won't exist. 1.00

05:14:15.000 And I know I'm not one of them.

05:14:17.000 And yet, it's a tragic loss.

05:14:21.000 My ancestors came here in the mid-19th century, and yet it's a tragic loss that that historic American nation is perishing.

05:14:29.000 It's a tragic loss that the adoptive American nation is dying, of all the other—the Irish, Germans, Italians, and others that came. 0.99

05:14:38.000 And in its place, we're getting this multiracial boarding house, as Teddy Roosevelt said.

05:14:43.000 So when J.D.

05:14:44.000 Vance comes up and says, well, unlike the Republicans, I believe that America is not an idea.

05:14:50.000 It's a nation.

05:14:51.000 But he says, we get to invite who we want to be a part of it.

05:14:57.000 And it's on our terms.

05:14:59.000 That might sound good.

05:15:01.000 But what he's really saying is, like his Indian wife, whose parents immigrated here recently, we're going to take all the nonwhite immigrants we can get as long as they come here legally. 0.96

05:15:13.000 Which is no different than the Republicans, no different than the Democrats.

05:15:16.000 This is the mass immigration, open borders, multiracial, multicultural, globalist agenda.

05:15:22.000 They're part of it!

05:15:24.000 And it's very sad that in 2016,

05:15:28.000 Trump was echoing Sam Francis and Pat Buchanan.

05:15:32.000 They understood this.

05:15:33.000 They talked about this.

05:15:35.000 They talked about the Jewish character of the right wing.

05:15:39.000 Jewish people don't care if the historic American nation dies. 0.96

05:15:42.000 They want it to happen. 0.89

05:15:44.000 They think the historic American nation is racist.

05:15:46.000 And they're right.

05:15:48.000 Because the historic American nation gave us Henry Ford and Charles Lindbergh.

05:15:52.000 And they wanted to keep us out of World War II.

05:15:55.000 And they didn't want to support the creation of Israel.

05:15:58.000 And they believe America was a Christian country, and they didn't want to put Germans in concentration camps.

05:16:04.000 The historic American nation gave us the German-American Bund and Alliance.

05:16:11.000 So, the Jewish people have no qualms. 1.00

05:16:15.000 They supported the separation of church and state, the Christian church and the American state, with the Establishment Clause, because they're not Christian. 0.97

05:16:22.000 They support the acceleration of the death of the American nation, because the American nation has got nothing to do with them. 0.65

05:16:29.000 And they believe that the ethnicity of many of the white people in this country, German, well, they believe that the Germans perpetrated the Holocaust.

05:16:37.000 And they called Trump Hitler, like J.D.

05:16:39.000 Vance did.

05:16:41.000 So when the Republican convention eight years after Trump is all about illegal immigration as a law enforcement problem and not mass immigration as a social and identity problem, it shows we have made no progress.

05:16:57.000 It shows we are not moving forward.

05:16:59.000 It shows we don't even understand the problem.

05:17:01.000 Forget about a solution.

05:17:03.000 Forget about politics delivering it.

05:17:05.000 We don't even understand the problem.

05:17:08.000 They're still getting up there and saying, hey, we don't care if you can't even speak English.

05:17:12.000 Legal immigrants are most affected by illegal immigration.

05:17:15.000 What about these Americans? 0.70

05:17:16.000 Their way of life is dying.

05:17:18.000 What about those Arizonan ranchers?

05:17:20.000 That's America.

05:17:21.000 Their way of life is gone.

05:17:23.000 What about Doug Burgum?

05:17:24.000 His phenotype is gone.

05:17:26.000 It's going away.

05:17:29.000 What about the World War II veteran who kissed the ground when he got here? 0.99

05:17:32.000 Do these ignorant 0.98

05:17:35.000 Immigrants today to these Israeli dual citizens? 1.00

05:17:38.000 Do they kiss the ground when they come here?

05:17:40.000 When Chinese foreign students, because I've seen it, when Chinese foreign students come to school that we're supposed to defend from affirmative action, when they come to UCLA, when they go to Harvard, when they go to Boston University like I went to, are they kissing the ground? 0.99

05:17:55.000 Or do they drive around with their Asian money and spit on the fucking ground and flick their cigarettes everywhere and eat with their mouths open? 0.99

05:18:03.000 It's totally the opposite. 1.00

05:18:06.000 And they say, well, as long as you're an enterprising, yuppie, Silicon Valley fag, and you speak English and watch Netflix, well, you're a perfect American. 0.98

05:18:15.000 I don't think so. 0.94

05:18:17.000 My ancestors kissed the ground when they got here.

05:18:20.000 My ancestors snuck on a boat from Italy to get here, and they did kiss the ground, and they made shoes with their hands on Taylor Street.

05:18:29.000 They didn't come here on, you know, some Chinese oligarch's money in a sports car, going to Harvard, learning to code in a beanbag chair in San Francisco, voting for Democrats.

05:18:43.000 It wasn't like that.

05:18:46.000 Vance gets up on the stage and says, no, no, America's not an idea.

05:18:46.000 And when J.D.

05:18:51.000 It's a nation.

05:18:53.000 Everyone can be a part of it.

05:18:54.000 They just have to come legally. 0.98

05:18:56.000 And when JD Vance called Trump-Hitler a noxious racist, when he said that Obama, Obama who is in the truest sense a foreigner, when he said that Obama is cerebral and that conservatives hate him because they're racist and because they're jealous of how smart he is, it shows he is another one of these pompous, arrogant elites. 0.93

05:19:20.000 This whole thing about Ohio, he don't 0.62

05:19:23.000 He don't want nothing to do with Ohio.

05:19:25.000 He couldn't get out of there fast enough.

05:19:29.000 Meemaw this and East Kentucky that.

05:19:33.000 Give me a break! 1.00

05:19:35.000 This guy said that people like his Meemaw only hated Obama because they're jealous racists.

05:19:42.000 Not because he launched an assault on our way of life, against the Constitution and the Second Amendment and our demographics, bringing Section 8 housing into the whitest communities. 1.00

05:19:52.000 That's what they did at HUD.

05:19:55.000 Bringing in illegals. 1.00

05:19:59.000 Putting his feet on the desk, the disrespect for our country, the way he said Trayvon Martin, this ignorant hoodlum, would look like his son? 1.00

05:20:08.000 Give me a break! 1.00

05:20:10.000 Smoking marijuana, communist with Jeremiah Wright. 0.99

05:20:15.000 And we don't like this guy because we're jealous of how cerebral he is, because we just hate, we're ignorant hillbillies that hate people that don't look like us? 0.98

05:20:23.000 That's J.D. 0.95

05:20:23.000 Vance. 0.95

05:20:24.000 And Trump is Hitler, and he only came aboard when one, he needed Trump's endorsement, and two, when he said and he realized that Trump isn't Hitler.

05:20:33.000 Trump doesn't represent the bitter clingers. 0.94

05:20:35.000 Trump doesn't represent the deplorables.

05:20:37.000 Trump represents the business interests.

05:20:39.000 When Steve Mnuchin became the Treasury Secretary, and Betsy DeVos became the Education Secretary, and Mike Pompeo became the Secretary of State, and John Bolton became the NSC Advisor, and Nikki Haley became the UN Ambassador.

05:20:54.000 And the Paul Ryan tax cuts were passed to cut the corporate tax rate.

05:20:58.000 It was only then when J.D.

05:20:59.000 Vance realized, oh, Trump isn't Hitler.

05:21:03.000 Trump is fine.

05:21:04.000 And according to his CNN, Yale, American Enterprise Institute sensibility, now he's worthy of support.

05:21:12.000 And now he needs the endorsement for Senate.

05:21:15.000 So this whole convention shows that we are moving backwards, not forwards.

05:21:21.000 Trump started us in a good direction in 2016.

05:21:24.000 He talked about the economic threat of immigration.

05:21:27.000 He talked about the forgotten men and women.

05:21:30.000 He talked about the white people and our culture.

05:21:34.000 And when he said, make America great again, that was a revanchist cry about what our country used to be like.

05:21:41.000 He said we would speak English, not Spanish.

05:21:45.000 And now eight years later, we've walked it back.

05:21:49.000 Eight years later, we are worse off than we were in 16.

05:21:53.000 We're not only more conservative than we were, we're not even as conservative as we were.

05:22:00.000 And as good as it sounds, when J.D.

05:22:02.000 Vance says America's a nation, not an idea, fundamentally he still believes it is an idea.

05:22:07.000 Because what other than ideas will he and his wife have in common with his ancestors when they're buried in the cemetery in East Kentucky?

05:22:17.000 His ancestors, who are Scots, who are Americans, who are pioneers, who are Christians, who are white, 0.83

05:22:27.000 What will they have in common with J.D.

05:22:29.000 Vance and his Jewish supremacist friend Curtis Yarvin and his Indian wife whose parents are immigrants, Usha, and their kids who aren't even racially white?

05:22:41.000 What's the basis of that continuity, of that nationhood, of this discrete and distinct people?

05:22:46.000 Other than ideas!

05:22:48.000 Other than the fact that they worked hard, and they fought for prosperity and energy dominance!

05:22:54.000 Energy dominance! 0.95

05:22:55.000 You know, what else are they going to have in common other than that?

05:22:59.000 So no, I don't think you know what nationhood means.

05:23:02.000 I don't think you know what a nation is.

05:23:04.000 I don't think you know what continuity means.

05:23:06.000 That's not a nation.

05:23:07.000 That's not a nationality.

05:23:11.000 Nation comes from natal, meaning birth, meaning family.

05:23:15.000 Okay?

05:23:17.000 We're a family.

05:23:19.000 Extended family.

05:23:20.000 What is a family?

05:23:21.000 A family is related by blood.

05:23:25.000 And families select each other.

05:23:27.000 We now know this through sociological science and genetic science.

05:23:32.000 Families are very similar genetically.

05:23:36.000 Similar in customs, mannerisms, values, religion, attributes, phenotype, and so on.

05:23:44.000 And it's not to say that other people can't be here, but the identity of the family is lost.

05:23:51.000 over time with mass immigration like what we're seeing.

05:23:54.000 It's not the same family.

05:23:57.000 This is not the Addams, the family of John and Quincy Addams.

05:24:01.000 This is not the family of Teddy and Franklin Roosevelt.

05:24:04.000 This is not the family of Jack and Jackie Kennedy and Robert Kennedy.

05:24:10.000 This is not the family of Donald and Fred Trump.

05:24:12.000 This is now the family of Ushas and Viveks and Shabboses. 1.00

05:24:23.000 And people say, well, your name's Fuentes.

05:24:30.000 But I have green eyes.

05:24:32.000 And I have white skin.

05:24:33.000 And I have brown hair.

05:24:35.000 And my family came from Europe.

05:24:39.000 And we're Catholic.

05:24:40.000 And we speak English.

05:24:42.000 And we've been here for many, for over 150 years in America.

05:24:47.000 And we've been in this city.

05:24:48.000 We've been in Chicago since it was rebuilt after the Great Chicago Fire.

05:24:55.000 That's the difference.

05:24:58.000 So, we still don't get it.

05:25:01.000 We still do not get it.

05:25:03.000 Far from it.

05:25:05.000 So I don't, I don't trust Vance.

05:25:07.000 It's very sad.

05:25:09.000 Catholic identity, not there.

05:25:12.000 European identity, not there.

05:25:15.000 It's not even conservative values anymore.

05:25:18.000 There's no talk about guns.

05:25:20.000 There's no talk about the Constitution.

05:25:22.000 There's no talk about the traditional family, a man and a woman.

05:25:26.000 There's no talk about Jesus Christ.

05:25:28.000 There's no talk about any of it.

05:25:29.000 It's all just talk about prices, money.

05:25:33.000 So we don't even share values anymore.

05:25:36.000 It's not about Jesus.

05:25:37.000 It's not about Europe.

05:25:39.000 It's not about America.

05:25:43.000 It's not about even the Constitution.

05:25:45.000 It's not about the family.

05:25:47.000 It's about money.

05:25:49.000 It's about the price of gas.

05:25:50.000 It's about the price of groceries, because that's the only thing we have in common.

05:25:55.000 That's the only thing that any of us have in common with each other.

05:25:58.000 When you get on public transportation at any major city,

05:26:01.000 And it's an alien nation.

05:26:04.000 When you get on a bus, and you hear 30 different languages, and 30 different skin tones, and you sit next to somebody that you don't even know where they're from, and you can't strike up a conversation, and they smell like some exotic place, the only thing that you have in common is you have to pay the bus fare to get on there. 0.76

05:26:21.000 The only thing that you have in common is you have to go and buy groceries from the store. 0.97

05:26:27.000 That's all we have, and we don't want to be killed by black gang members. 1.00

05:26:31.000 That's all we have in common anymore. 0.99

05:26:33.000 Money.

05:26:34.000 That's the common denominator is a money system.

05:26:38.000 Money is what powers our system.

05:26:41.000 Money is what funds our system.

05:26:43.000 People think it's speech and ideas.

05:26:45.000 Money funds the media, which disseminates and distributes speech and ideas.

05:26:50.000 People are motivated by money.

05:26:53.000 And really, that is what is fundamental.

05:26:57.000 All the other stuff is really like, honestly, it's whatever.

05:27:01.000 It's money.

05:27:03.000 Money is behind the politicians.

05:27:05.000 Money is behind the parties.

05:27:06.000 Money provides the incentive for immigration. 0.89

05:27:09.000 Money is what motivates the elites to portray our country.

05:27:12.000 Until we get people that are motivated by God,

05:27:17.000 Until we get a Caesar that has no loyalty to money, until we get a Caesar that has the loyalty of blood, the loyalty of the nation, and his loyalty is to the nation and the blood, then it will go on this way.

05:27:36.000 And that is the true, that is the true distinction.

05:27:40.000 There is no distinction between socialists and capitalists.

05:27:44.000 The language is money.

05:27:45.000 There's no distinction between Republicans and Democrats.

05:27:49.000 The language is money.

05:27:51.000 They do it for money.

05:27:54.000 And that's what we're living in, is a money system.

05:27:58.000 It's all price.

05:28:01.000 Cost.

05:28:03.000 Value, profit, this is the language of the country.

05:28:07.000 Until we change the vocabulary, until we change the consciousness, and we change as people, until we transform what we're about, then this is what will rule the country.

05:28:20.000 And the blood will die, and the faith will die, and the nation will die, and the land will be killed.

05:28:26.000 The ecology will be devastated.

05:28:29.000 And so that's really the battle of our time.

05:28:31.000 I know I sound like a communist or something.

05:28:33.000 I'm not a communist.

05:28:35.000 But I am a Catholic.

05:28:38.000 Okay?

05:28:39.000 And that's the thing that matters.

05:28:42.000 So anyway, so that's that.

05:28:44.000 That's really the most important message.

05:28:46.000 That's the revolutionary message that people aren't ready for.

05:28:50.000 Okay?

05:28:51.000 We thought that Trump would be the Caesar, but he's not.

05:28:55.000 He's a money guy.

05:28:56.000 I think he does love people, but the people around him are money people.

05:29:02.000 But he could be the Caesar.

05:29:05.000 He has the loyalty of the people, and he's loyal to them.

05:29:09.000 But he thinks he needs the money.

05:29:12.000 He just needs allegiance.

05:29:14.000 He just needs faith.

05:29:17.000 He just needs the nation.

05:29:20.000 He doesn't need the money.

05:29:21.000 He doesn't need the $100 million from Miriam Adelson.

05:29:24.000 He doesn't need the $45 million a month from Elon Musk.

05:29:27.000 He doesn't need David Sachs' money.

05:29:29.000 He doesn't need the money.

05:29:30.000 He needs the people.

05:29:34.000 And the people need to run the government.

05:29:36.000 And only then will things change.

05:29:39.000 People are willing to sacrifice money.

05:29:42.000 All right, but that's that.

05:29:43.000 I want to move on.

05:29:44.000 So that's my monologue for tonight.

05:29:46.000 But I want to move on.

05:29:47.000 We're going to take a look at the Super Chats.

05:29:49.000 Like I said, I'll be back here tomorrow.

05:29:52.000 We'll be doing it all over again, covering the last day.

05:29:54.000 We'll watch Trump's speech, and then I'll be doing my show Friday.

05:29:58.000 If you're new here, follow this channel.

05:30:01.000 I do a show in a suit and tie from the studio every Monday through Friday at 9—excuse me, 8 o'clock.

05:30:08.000 I'm still getting used to it.

05:30:09.000 8 o'clock Central Time, 9 o'clock Eastern Time.

05:30:12.000 So if you're new here, tune in next week.

05:30:15.000 Regularly scheduled programming will be here tomorrow, and Friday I'll be live at 8, but I do this show every night, 8 o'clock central, just so you know.

05:30:23.000 Okay, but we're gonna move on.

05:30:25.000 We're gonna take a look at our Super Chats.

05:30:27.000 We'll see what you guys have to say about all this.

05:30:30.000 Then I'm gonna go, because I'm tired.

05:30:32.000 It's been a long week.

05:30:35.000 But let me get set up, and then we'll do it.

05:30:43.000 Okay.

05:30:44.000 Yeah, Ben Carson's really the best.

05:30:55.000 He's a true believer.

05:31:10.000 And he's a good man.

05:31:12.000 That's a guy that's not motivated by money.

05:31:14.000 That's the guy.

05:31:15.000 Bobby Johnson sent $20.

05:31:17.000 Hey Nick, if they swap out Joe for Kamala, who do you think would be the left's VP pick?

05:31:21.000 God bless.

05:31:22.000 It'd probably be a white guy.

05:31:26.000 But it's also somebody that they don't want to torch their career because they're probably going to lose.

05:31:34.000 I don't know.

05:31:35.000 I don't know who it would be.

05:31:39.000 Maybe Buddha Judge?

05:31:40.000 That might be too woke for them.

05:31:41.000 Probably a straight white guy.

05:31:42.000 Maybe... I don't think it would be Newsome.

05:31:48.000 Who might it be?

05:31:53.000 Who do they even have on the bench?

05:31:55.000 The problem is they don't really have anybody good.

05:31:58.000 So I don't know.

05:31:59.000 I would have to think about that.

05:32:00.000 That's something I haven't thought about.

05:32:03.000 Yeah.

05:32:20.000 That's very sad how people allow themselves to be tricked.

05:32:23.000 Cloudslides sent $10.

05:32:25.000 Did you see Tucker Carlson talking today about white replacement?

05:32:29.000 He was fully and explicitly saying that it's intentionally being carried out to remain majority white.

05:32:35.000 What are your thoughts on Tucker and this issue?

05:32:37.000 Could America become 80% white again? 0.98

05:32:39.000 If so, how?

05:32:41.000 I didn't see that.

05:32:42.000 Did he say he wants America to remain white?

05:32:45.000 Does that be the first time he said that?

05:32:46.000 He has strenuously denied that he believes replacement migration is racial.

05:32:52.000 He has said over and over, I'm against white identity politics.

05:32:57.000 That's like the Nazis. 0.90

05:32:58.000 Someone's going to be in favor of white identity.

05:33:00.000 You don't represent me.

05:33:01.000 That's not individualism.

05:33:03.000 That's as racist as the left.

05:33:05.000 And he has strenuously said, no, I've never said it's racial.

05:33:09.000 I've always said it's about some other thing.

05:33:12.000 So if he said that, that would be pretty remarkable.

05:33:16.000 I would be very pleasantly surprised, but I don't... I saw some clip.

05:33:20.000 I don't think he said that, but I'll have to take another look.

05:33:24.000 GapGunInstagram sent $10, the boys, American first slash Christ is King patriots, prepared to enter the third circle of hell, the third day of the RNC, as we continue to realize that there really is no longer a right wing in this country.

05:33:39.000 GapGunInstagram sent $10, when Gen Z and Alpha get old our jokes will be hilarious.

05:33:45.000 Department of Justice?

05:33:47.000 More like Department of African American am I right?

05:33:50.000 Okay, yeah, that's hilarious.

05:33:51.000 Very funny, very good, yes.

05:33:51.000 They probably cut the mic.

05:34:10.000 Richard Percival sent $15, you're basically the only right winger that matters anymore.

05:34:15.000 Do you think your influence would grow faster if Trump wins, or if Biden does?

05:34:19.000 Definitely if Biden does.

05:34:21.000 Definitely.

05:34:23.000 If Biden won, it would be way better for me.

05:34:26.000 I'm really kind of agnostic, honestly, about the election still.

05:34:29.000 That's how it feels, right?

05:34:48.000 Alright, lay off.

05:34:59.000 Jace Brandon sent $15. 1.00

05:35:01.000 Fuck J.D. 1.00

05:35:05.000 Thanks for all you do, Nick.

05:35:06.000 Praying for you and America first. 0.81

05:35:07.000 Thank you.

05:35:08.000 Yes, Baby Dog.

05:35:09.000 Star of the show tonight.

05:35:12.000 Sent $10.

05:35:14.000 Use Bitcoin.

05:35:15.000 Opt out of their control.

05:35:17.000 No middlemen.

05:35:18.000 No one taking a cut.

05:35:20.000 Uncensorable.

05:35:22.000 And then...

05:35:24.000 Okay, bro.

05:35:24.000 I don't know.

05:35:25.000 I think he'd probably say, how did I get here?

05:35:27.000 I don't even speak English.

05:35:41.000 Not really.

05:35:42.000 Thanks a lot, man.

05:35:43.000 I appreciate it.

05:36:09.000 I wish we would get a Hail Mary at the RNC and instead we'd just keep getting Protestant pastors and Sikh worship music, whatever that was. 0.89

05:36:21.000 Where's the Catholics? 0.98

05:36:23.000 Normally a respecter sent $5.

05:36:25.000 CNN reporting Biden is becoming more receptive to dropping out and ABC reporting Schumer urged him to drop out.

05:36:31.000 Big Joe brothers, is it over?

05:36:33.000 I think so.

05:36:34.000 Yeah, I saw that.

05:36:35.000 That was developing as the convention went on.

05:36:37.000 I think he may be out before the convention.

05:36:40.000 The Democrat convention, I mean.

05:36:41.000 All right, now our Super Chat app is glitched.

05:36:49.000 Awesome. 0.98

05:37:03.000 Okay.

05:37:04.000 I might just skip the rest. 1.00

05:37:05.000 I'm just pissed off with this stupid thing. 1.00

05:37:09.000 Every night, every night it's games with this stupid plugin. 0.99

05:37:32.000 I'm just going to read the rest of them manually. 0.99

05:37:32.000 All right, you know what? 0.99

05:37:34.000 I'm just going to read this last big one, then I'm going to get out of here.

05:37:37.000 If I have time, I'll read the rest tomorrow.

05:37:41.000 Richard Lyman says, my daily 100.

05:37:43.000 Hey, thank you, man.

05:37:43.000 Love you, Nick.

05:37:44.000 Love you too, buddy.

05:37:47.000 Let me just read the messages here. 1.00

05:37:49.000 Stupid fucking thing never works. 1.00

05:37:52.000 But thank you for the big super chat. 1.00

05:37:54.000 OK, and now it's gone.

05:37:57.000 Alright, whatever.

05:37:58.000 Okay, it's not working.

05:38:00.000 We'll just do it again tomorrow.

05:38:02.000 Alright, well, that's our show.

05:38:05.000 Sucks about the Super Chats, but there's only a few left anyway.
