USA! USA! USA! We’re going to take our country back. So sad to see what’s happening. Hello,  Iowa, and a very, very happy New Year. We’re going to have a great year. Hopefully,   it’s going to be one of the greatest years  ever. You know why? Because in November,  

It’s going to be big. It’s going to be bigger  than anything’s ever happened to this country. I think it really is of that magnitude.  And I appreciate such a big turnout. We   come to every little part of this  place, and the people are greater  

And greater every stop. And we want to hit  every corner, and we’re really honored to   see the crowd that we had the turnout,  that we have your incredible people. You built this country. You built this country.  Woo! 10 days from now, the people of this state  

Are going to cast the most important vote of your  entire lives. I believe that too, very much. I   used to say that 2016, and I believed it then, and  now I believe this is even much more important. Our country’s going to hell. You don’t  mind me using that horrible word,  

Don’t you? I use that word because our country is   really in trouble. It’s in trouble like  it’s never been before, in my opinion. We have a man who’s grossly incompetent dealing   with nuclear war. He’s dealing against  Russia. He’s dealing against President  

Xi of China. If you would deal with these  people, you’d say it’s not a fair fight. By delivering the massive victory, it’s going to  be, I think it’s going to be really a tremendous   victory in Iowa, because I’m seeing polls that are  phenomenal, but the main thing I got to ask you,  

Look, we got to get out and vote because, you  know, bad things happen when you sit back. We love him. We love the job. We love the job  he did for the farmers for the whole state,  

But let’s sit home and watch it. Maybe it’ll  be a little bit cold that night or a little   bit rainy. So important that we get out  and vote and really show the strength,   because the only way we can get hurt  is if you sit home and want to watch  

The great results on television,  then you say, is it too late? We got to get out there fast. But that’s  not going to happen. But if you would get   out and vote, even though, you  know, the polls have this way,  

Way up, strange things happen. So if you  don’t mind, look, she’s shaking her head. You’re right. You’re right. Oh,   we’ve seen some very strange things happen.  But I’m not worried about that. You know,   the one thing I’m worried about here, I’m  worried about it a lot of other places.

I’m not worried about it here. What I’m  worried about here is we have to just   get out and show the support because it’s  going to make a big difference in November.   We’re voting now, but it’s going to  make a big difference in November. By delivering a massive victory in Iowa,  

You’ll send a thundering message to  Crooked Joe Biden. He’s a crooked man,   an incompetent crooked man. You’re going to  send it to the fake news media right back there. That’s a lot of press for this corner. There’s  beautiful, this beautiful location. You know,  

They said, you didn’t really have  to come here. I said, like hell,   I don’t have to come here. I have to come here. I didn’t come here. I’d be in big  trouble. I’d be in big trouble. Brad,   my first supporter, you know, he’s right  here. I think I call him the Marlboro man,  

Right? Brad, he’s right here. He  said, you better get there, sir. You better get there. I said, I’ll get  there. But all the evil and all the   sinister people trying to destroy our nation,  and that’s what happens. They are destroying  

Our nation. I don’t know how much more our  nation can take when you look at the border,   when you look at Afghanistan, the way  we got out, we’re going to get out. We’re going to get out with strength and  dignity. And the way we got out was something,  

I think, the most horrible day, the  most embarrassing day or moment in   the history of our country. And that  led to a lot of other bad things,   including Russia going into Ukraine, a  lot of other bad things that led to it. With your vote for our campaign on  Monday, January 15th, you’ll declare  

That we are going to take back our country.  We’re going to defeat Crooked Joe Biden,   and we’re going to make America great again. Right? And it all starts right here, you know,  because of me. I’ll tell you, I’ll take full  

Credit. I’ll take 100% of the credit if you  don’t mind, Governor. First in the nation,   and you are first in the nation, and that’s  something that was very important to me. You know, you have a great tradition  in Iowa, great tradition for farming  

And plenty of other things, but you  have a great political tradition,   and they wanted to move you to the back of the  pack. I said, we’re not doing that to Iowa. We’re not doing it. Maybe somebody else someday,  

Hopefully, long down because I’ll have signed  those rights into your corner for a long period   of time. You’ll be here. I said from day  one, right? I said, we’re never moving you. You know, and you have forces that want to  move. You noticed the Democrats moved. You  

Did notice that? A couple of people  maybe noticed that? But they moved,   but you didn’t move because of what I did. It all starts here in Iowa at 7  p .m. on Martin Luther King Day,   7 p .m. So don’t stay home if you  want to save America. Each and every  

One of you get out and vote and really  bring your friends. We talk about 10. Bring 10 people, but bring whatever it is.  You can also bring more than 10 people,   I guess. But bring whatever you  have to bring. Before going further,  

I want to send our support and our  deepest sympathies to the victims   and families touched by the terrible  school shooting yesterday in Perry, Iowa. To the entire community, we love you. We  pray for you. And we ask God to heal and  

Comfort really the whole state and the  pain that you have. This is something   that’s very unique to your state. We’re  really with you as much as anybody can be. It’s a very terrible thing that  happened. And it’s just horrible   to see that happening. That’s just  horrible. So surprising to see it  

Here. But I have to get over it. We have  to move forward. We have to move forward. But to the relatives and to all of the people that   are so devastated right now to a point  they can’t breathe, they can’t live,  

We are with you all the way. We’re with  you, and we love you and cherish you. We’re also really delighted today to have some  of the great endorsers and my great friends,   state senators, Lynn Evans,  Kevin Alonce, Jeff Taylor,   and Brad Zahn. I told you, Brad  was the first one in the nation.

He endorsed me three months  before I ran. Where’s Brad?   The Marlboro man. Where is he? Where  is he? Come here, Brad. Get up here,   Brad. Come here. Want to say something?  Come on. That was easy to endorse you.

And he is the best president of my lifetime.  The 47th president of the United States,   Donald J. Trump. I said, who’s that  guy named Brad in Iowa? Because this   was three months before I even knew I was running.

Brad, I never went to say I had no  idea I was running, Brad. But he said,   if that guy in New York wants to run,  he’s got my endorsement. He’s going   to do it. He can turn it around. He’s the  only one I know that can turn it around.

And he was actually the first.  I endorse him, he said. I said,   that’s my first endorsement. So when I finally  got to meet him, which was around 2015, in 2015,   so it’s a long time already. But a lot of  great things have happened, and then we had  

A lot of bad things happen the last three  years, a lot of bad, bad things happened. But I was very honored by Brad. And there’s  a special feeling you have for some people.   You know when that happens. And  I have that special feeling for  

Him. He’s a great person, and  he loves the state very much. Does a great job. Today, I’m also  proud to announce that our campaign   has been endorsed by pastors and  faith leaders in every single one   of the 99 counties. That’s almost, I  think, a first. Thank you very much.

God is with us. I think so, right?  Thank you very much. You’re a great   people. That’s a great honor. I think  that’s a first to all 99 counties. The   stakes for this election could not  be higher under Crooked Joe Biden.

Our borders, if you noticed, and I’m sure nobody’s  noticed, are not as good as the other states. Our   borders have been erased. They’ve been  obliterated. We have people coming in,   millions and millions of people coming in. They’re coming in from prisons. They’re  coming in from mental institutions. They’re  

Terrorists. Millions of people are coming  in. They shouldn’t be here. If you look at   the worlds, not just the three or four  nations that we think about, you know,   whether it’s Mexico or if anyone, any one  of the nations, you could also, by the way.

You know, we also have a northern border  that’s not exactly doing too well. But if   you look Honduras, El Salvador, any one  of these nations, it’s not them. It’s   everybody all over the world. They caught  prisoners the other day from the Congo.

When I say caught, they catch them  and they release them. We used to   catch them and release them into Mexico.  Do you remember? We released them into   May. It was called Catch and Release  into Mexico. And they gave that up.

You think that was easy to get from Mexico?  No, but they did it. They did it. They did   it very gladly. We didn’t have to pay.  Now they want billions of dollars to help   us with this problem. And with me, they  never even asked for billions of dollars.

I said, you’re going to pay billions of dollars   if you don’t help us with this  problem. But all over the world,   we’re talking about not just the countries  near us or the countries only in South America. They do. They come from the Congo. They come from  

Africa. They come from Asia.  Like many people from China,   they happen to be about the age of this gentleman  right here, around 20 for perfect, perfect age. In his early 20s, just perfect for the military,   isn’t it? 27 ,000 people from China, all  males, all between 20 and 25. Perfect for  

The military. I wonder what that’s all  about. So it’s a pretty scary thing. We have them coming in from Russia. The  same thing. They all seem to be between   19 and 24 or 25. I wonder why that  is. We’re going to be paying a price,  

But we’ll take care of it. If we get  in, we’re going to be taking care of it. We’re going to have no choice but  to take care of it. We’re not going   to have a country. But our middle  class is being crushed by Biden’s  

Crippling inflation. The inflation has  been the worst that we’ve ever had. They say 72 years, sir. Be accurate. I think  it’s the worst we’ve ever had. There’s never   been anything like this. We have food prices  have tripled. And every single thing you do,   the energy prices, look at  what’s happened to energy.

Violent criminals are running wild  in Democrat -run cities while law   enforcement has been weaponized against  Christians and conservatives and people   of faith. It’s weaponized against  Christians. It’s really weaponized. I don’t know how many Catholics are  in the room, maybe not that many here.  

Are they? Well, what are we doing with  the Catholics? I mean, they are going,   they’re persecuting Catholics. And then the  Catholics, it’s 50 -50 between Catholics and us. Trump. 50 -50. And I say, you know, it’s  amazing. I got a call from the Cardinal,  

New York. A very good man. And he said, sir,  this was during the pandemic. He said, sir,   we need billions of dollars to help  us with our education, our schools. We’re losing a fortune. And I got him  the money. It was very important to  

Get it because they do a tremendous  service and they have great schools,   but they were hurting badly during that.  And I was able to get him the money. And then I look at the vote.  It’s like 50 -50. And I say,   why? But now they are persecuting  Catholics in particular. I don’t know  

What’s going on with the Catholics. You guys  are Catholic. What’s going on with Catholics? Why are they doing this with Catholics?  Something’s happening. But they’re doing   it with Christians and they’re doing  it with parents and they’re doing it   with a lot of people. And you  explain, you explain that one.

Let’s go and get the parents  at the school board meetings,   right? It’s ridiculous. But we have wars  in Europe. We have war in the Middle East.   And China is threatening Taiwan. Iran  is inches away from a nuclear bomb. They’re going to have a nuclear bomb,  they’re saying, 34 days. And we,  

When we were in charge, Iran was broke.  Iran had no money for Hamas. They had no   money for Hezbollah. They were  broke. Now they’re very rich. They have $250 billion, they say. Not  including the $6 billion they got for   a hostage trade. We got five  and they got five. I said, oh,  

That’s good. That’s better than they usually  do. Usually, you know, we give up, well,   we gave up the King of Terror, you know, we, the  last, with the basketball player, Brittany Griner. We, we gave up, we gave up the  greatest purchaser of military  

Arms and equipment and very deadly  equipment in the history of the world,   they say. He was called the Phantom of  Death. So they got him and we got Brittany. And, and that was a tough trade. But, you know,  

At least she’s standing now for the national  anthem, I think, but she didn’t stand till   much. She was, she always wanted to tie  her sneakers during the national anthem. I didn’t like that. I didn’t like it. That  was the time when she heard the national  

Anthem. That meant it was time for her to  tie up her sneakers. I don’t like that.   But our military has gone woke and we’re  teetering on the edge of World War III. We’ve never been closer than we are  right now to World War III. There’s  

Only one candidate in this race  who is going to be up to the task   of saving America from every single  Biden disaster starting on day one. Number one, I know the players on the other side,   and they always respected your country.  I don’t want to say they respected me,  

But boy, did they respect this country  when I was in charge. They respected us. Like they’ve never respected us. Right? You  wouldn’t have had Ukraine. You wouldn’t have   had Israel being attacked. Russia  wouldn’t be attacking Ukraine,   but you wouldn’t have had the attack on Israel.

You wouldn’t have had inflation. You  wouldn’t have had any of this stuff.   You wouldn’t have China longing  to go into Taiwan. You know,   they’re just waiting for the right  moment. They wouldn’t even talk about it. They weren’t even talking  about it. And they won’t be,  

I promise you that. But with your vote and  these caucuses, we’re going to finish the job,   and we’re going to get it done. And we’re  going to actually be stronger than ever before. It’s hard to believe because you see the damage  that’s been done. No president has ever, ever. And  

I often say you can take the 10 worst presidents  in the history of our country. You can add them   up, put them together, and they haven’t done the  damage that Joe Biden’s done to this country. What he’s done to this country is unthinkable.  Biden’s record is an unbroken streak of weakness,  

Incompetence, corruption, and failure.  Other than that, he’s doing quite well,   isn’t he? Don’t you? That’s a hell of a list. That’s a hell of a list, right? That’s  why Crooked Joe is staging his pathetic   fearmongering campaign event in Pennsylvania  today. Did you see him? He was stuttering  

Through the whole thing. He’s going, I’m  going to, he’s a threat to democracy. I’m a threat. They’ve weaponized government. He’s   saying I’m a threat to democracy.  He’s a threat to democracy. Wow.   Couldn’t read the word. He’s a threat to  democracy. You know how bad the press is?

You know what they do? They take me  saying that, like that. And they say,   Trump couldn’t say the word democracy. Look. No,  that’s what they do. They’re so bad. You know,   I don’t know if you saw it. I was on Sean  Hannity, a good guy, a really good guy, right?

And we did a town hall, and he says, tell  us, you’re not going to be a dictator,   right? I said, Sean, I’m going  to be a dictator for one day,   for drilling and for closing the border. And  after that, I’m not going to be a dictator.

So, so remember the way I said, I’m  going to be a dictator for one day,   for those two things. And then after  that, I’m not going to be. So I said,   I’m going to be a dictator for  one day, for drilling, right?

For drilling. And then, so what  do they do? What do they do?   We say drilling and the border.  Then I go, and then after that,   I’m not going to be a dictator for one day. So  they have me on the news all over the place.

I’m going to be a dictator. Cut. Do  you see that? This is the fake news   media. They have the first part, I’m  going to be a dictator. Cut. And they   had to cut it fast because I kept it going  fast because I know exactly what they did.

They had me the other day, I was imitating  Biden because he can’t walk off the stage,   right? You know, he can never  find the exit. So they had me   turning around and looking for it. I mean,  these stages have a lot of stairs on them.

Some of them have four or five stairs,  and he did. He had so many stairs,   he couldn’t find it. And they showed  me that I couldn’t find the way off   the stage. In other words, they said  he couldn’t find the way off the stage.

And it’s just terrible. They’re so bad. You guys  are so dishonest, you’re so pathetic. That’s why   they’re all going out of business, I’ll tell  you. They are just so pathetic. And you know,   it’s so important having an honest media  is so important, but they just aren’t.

And it’s a lot of times what they  don’t say. It’s not only what they say,   it’s what they don’t say. But so I  have to be very careful with sarcasm   because I’m a little sarcastic  sometimes, and you say something.

And everybody there is laughing, having a good  time. But they put it on as though you mean it,   you know? So you can’t have any fun during  these rather terrible times, if you think about  

It. Because Biden, I mean, if you take a look at  what he’s doing on the border or inflation or our   military, that horrible day in Afghanistan,  you look at what he’s done with energy. All throughout the world, we’re  an embarrassment as a country.  

We become an embarrassment as a country.  The only reason Biden is at Valley Forge   abusing George Washington’s legacy. I  mean, he’s abusing Washington’s legacy. And he never sticks up for Washington.  And you know, they’ve taken the name   George Washington off many schools and  many different. Can you believe it? The  

Name George Washington is coming down  from many schools, many in California. And he ought to stop that. But it’s  a legacy to, it’s really a slander   and a horrible statement he’s making to 75  million Americans. That’s what they say. It’s  

Much more than that. You saw the numbers  that came out yesterday on the election. Everybody saw those numbers. They were  released. The fake news doesn’t want   to talk about them. But it’s a disgrace  what happened in 2020. It’s a disgrace.  

And everybody knows it. I think they have  81 percent of the people understand that. But he knows he can’t show his face at the  Southwest border or in East Palestine, Ohio,   where I love those people. There  were great people. I went there   early when they had that really bad situation.

And he went to the auto workers factories.  He’s given away a road to business to China,   mostly to China. You could sit down  if you want. Go ahead. Go ahead. See,   I’m not kidding with those people. That’s it. And you can’t stand up in the front,  right? But thank you very much. But,  

You know, people are waiting for  three, four days in these things.   That’s cold out there. That’s a long  wait, right? It’s pretty cold out there. I said, where’s my coat? I had to  walk 15 feet from the car to the…  

I said, do you have a coat? And these  people are waiting for three days. So   that’s good. That means you’re  hearty. You’re hearty people. You’re strong people. Thank you. Thank  you very much. But if you take a look,  

Crooked Joe cannot talk about a single issue  that matters to hard work in Americans because   he’s failed you and he’s betrayed us  on every single issue and on policy. He’s the worst ever. And people have  known that for a long time. Secretary  

Of states have said he doesn’t  know what he’s doing. Obama said   it. A lot of people said it. But  he doesn’t know what he’s doing. You look at what’s happening in the Middle East,  you look at what’s going on with Ukraine. He  

Doesn’t know what he’s doing. Biden and the  radical left Democrats lie to us because they   know that Americans can’t stand the truth about  them because they know how badly they’re doing. They are doing so badly. You know, they  start off with a base because people said,  

A friend of mine called up, we’re leading by  11 in a number of places. Now, 11 is a lot,   but a friend of mine called up,  how come you’re only leading by 11? This guy can’t put two sentences together. I said,  

Well, they start off with a base like about 39. He  said 38. He said, it’s interesting. It’s hard to   be a 38 as a Democrat. But Republicans  have to do it the old fashioned way. We have to earn every one of them. But  they have a base. I won’t exactly tell  

You what that base is, but we  all know what that base is. They   have certain people that are going to  vote Democrat, almost no matter what. But I’ll tell you the union part of  that base is coming to us. The union  

Part. I can also tell you another. The  Hispanic part is coming to us at levels   that nobody’s ever seen before.  We’re leading with Hispanics. That’s never happened before. And African American   is coming to us at a level that I  don’t think any Republican is seen  

Because they understand that this man is  not capable. He’s not a capable person. I mean, if you had a store and  you wanted to take a week off,   you wouldn’t put him in charge of the store.  No, you wouldn’t. Would you trust him to run  

Your store? I don’t think anybody  would. That’s a little question. It’s a little thing. If you have a  store, would you trust the President   of the United States to run your store?  He couldn’t do it. This election is our  

Last chance to save America. Very important.  The battle begins in Iowa in January 15th,   and Joe Biden’s Banana Republic  ends on November 5th, 2024. And I believe because the stock market  is doing okay for the last six months,  

But I believe the reason is because we’re  leading in all the polls. I think if we weren’t,   the stock market would be going down  at a level that you haven’t seen. And I think if we don’t win, I think  you’re going to end up in a stock  

Market like you did in 1929, not a  recession, a depression. I believe   that. I have to say it. I really believe  you’re going to end up in a depression. You take a look at what these people are  doing, how they’re wasting all this money  

On the Green New Scam. It’s called the  Green New Scam. It’s horrible. Horrible,   horrible. With your help, we’re going  to bring our country back from disaster. Our country is a disaster. Left  out all over the world. Since 2016,  

You and I have been in this battle  side by side. I mean, we won twice,   and we’re going to win a third time.  We’re going to win by more now, they say. We’re going to win by more in terms of November.  

We’re going to win by more than  we did even the first two times,   and we won nicely. We won very nice. Look,  I did get you $28 billion in all fairness. Right? Who the hell else would  get you $28 billion from China,  

The farmers of America? I say, the farmers  of America are not voting against Trump.   They’re all smiling like this. They opened  us big. Remember, I said, here’s what you do. We’re going to take a little while with  China, but we’re going to end up winning  

The negotiation, and we’re going to  make a great trade deal. You know,   I don’t even talk about that  trade deal. I talk about USMCA. I talk about all the many trade deals I made  and re -did because you had such crazy deals.  

I used to say, who makes these deals are  so bad. But I don’t talk about China,   but China was probably the biggest of them all. Fifty billion dollars they have  to buy. They used to buy 10, 12,  

50 billion they had to buy. Now, I don’t  know if they’re watching it because I don’t   think Biden is going to enforce anything  because China pays them a lot of money. You know, it gives them a lot of money.  So he’s a Manchurian candidate. And  

The two, you know what a Manchurian  candidate is? This young gentleman,   he doesn’t know. You don’t want to  find out. He’s a Manchurian candidate. We took on the entire corrupt system  in Washington like no one has ever done  

Before. And together we stood up to the failed  establishment, the corrupt media, the deep state,   the globalist, the warmongers, the Wall Street  special interests, and open border fanatics. I mean, a lot of these Wall Street guys,   they know me, they like me. And I see  that they’re endorsing like Nikki Haley,  

Birdbrain. They’re endorsing Nikki Haley,  who does not have what it takes, by the way. I’m just telling you, I’ve spent a lot  of time with her. She does not have,   I hope you enjoy her, you know,  with her little quips. Like,  

How did the Civil War start? What was  her? Well, it had to do with government. No, it was slavery. You know, I  never questioned her in that. I   never wanted to pile on. But  you’ll find out about Nikki,  

And you’re going to find out that Ron, you  got to have a little personality, you know? We took him from practically zero. He begged me  for the endorsement. I gave him the endorsement.   He was like a rocket ship. One day, he was  leading anyone, and then I helped him win the  

General. And then, four years later, they  said, will you run against the President? And he says, I have no comment. I  said, that means he’s running. Oh,   man, this guy is running. I got him  elected. He’s going to run against me.  

So I started hitting him very hard,  and a lot of my geniuses backstage. He paid a lot of money. Sir, don’t go  after him. He’s a Republican. I said,   I don’t care if he’s a Republican or not. I  said, he said he has no comment. I got him  

Elected. But you need a personality still,  and there’s not a lot of personality there. So, you know, you need a personality  to charm foreign leaders. You think   President Xi is easy to deal with? And  Putin? And do you think Kim Jong -un,   North Korea, you’re going  to get into a nuclear war?

If Hillary won that election, you would be in  a nuclear war. Who knows where you’d be right   now? Because nuclear is a level that  nobody wants to even think about. And,   you know, again, now we have the problem  with Iran, and they’re going to have it.

You know, when I busted up  that whole Iran situation,   they were supposed to make a deal. But  they didn’t do anything. They didn’t do   anything. And now they’re going to have a  nuclear weapon that allowed them to sell.

I told China, if you buy oil from Iran, you can’t  do business in the United States. They said, well,   we’re not going to buy any more oil. Thank you  very much. And I said that to many countries,   and they were doing literally no business.

They were broke. And then Biden came along,  took off all those sanctions in one day,   and all of a sudden you have, you know, the  greatest sponsor of terror anywhere in the world,   probably in history, and they’re giving money  to everybody that wants to blow people up.

But we didn’t like that. But it is what it is,  but they didn’t do anything. I took away the,   I took away all of their economic power. And by  the way, I wanted to make a good deal for them,   too. I think everybody would have,  but they cannot have a nuclear weapon.

That was the only thing. The one thing I  said you cannot have, we would have had a   deal with Iran in the first week, in the first  week after the election, not even in January,   after the election. We would have had a  deal with Iran, but they didn’t do anything.

I terminated the deal, which was not easy  to do. And then you were supposed to make   a deal. They didn’t do that. These people  are incompetent, and they’re very dangerous   for our country. We achieved more than any  administration in the history of our country.

We fought long and hard to rescue the  Republican Party from the likes of Mitt   Romney, Karl Rove, this Paul Ryan guy  who is the worst. And there’s no chance,   remember Paul Ryan, wheelchair off the cliff.

Remember this guy? He is bad news, and he  works at Fox now. He’s on the board of Fox.   You think that’s good? No wonder. No wonder  Fox has changed. There’s no chance we’re going   to let them claw their way back into power and  establishment, like Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley.

You know, the other day,  they had him on our program,   Ron DeSantis. His name is DeSantis.  But they had him on our program. Liz   and gentlemen were proud to have the  Governor of Florida, Mr. Ron DeSantis. They said, no, no, no, it’s  DeSantis. That’s good branding,  

Right, when they can’t even  say his name. Governor, yeah,   Ron DeSantis. Ammonious, actually. The  abbreviated version is Ron DeSantis, right? But he’s got a bad seed there because any guy that  would do that, when you get somebody elected, you  

Say, let the President have this time. He’ll do a  great job. And everybody said we did a great job. Let the President do a great job. And he’s young,  and he’ll take over. But he’s a bad seed. He won’t  

Be getting my endorsements. I can tell you that. I  can thank you very much, darling. I like you too. Who said that? Who was it? Thank you. Look at  that. You look. Thank you. That’s a nice voice,   right? I heard that voice. I  said, just stand up, please,  

If you want. Thank you very much. Very beautiful. Our country is dying, and there’s no time to  waste for your vote or another establishment   career politician. We have to straighten  out our country. We have to straighten.   We got badly hurt when the gift from  China poured onto our shores, COVID.

You know, the day before that  happened, I had John McLaughlin,   the great pollster. He was in my office with  some other pollsters, and they said, sir,   I’ll be honest with you. You can’t lose. This  is the greatest poll numbers I’ve ever seen.

You know, we were a couple of years,  two and a half years in. And they said,   you can’t lose. If George Washington came  back from the dead and Lincoln came back   and they teamed up as president and vice  president, sir, you’d beat them by a lot.

I said, that sounds good. The next day I  go into the Oval Office, they say, sir,   there’s a problem in China. There are a  lot of people dying in Wuhan. Remember,   I said it was the Wuhan lab. I never changed. It was the Wuhan lab. But a lot of people said,  

Oh, it’s a cave from 2 ,000 miles away  with bats. Then they blamed France. They   blamed everybody. It ultimately came  back to Wuhan, which is what I said. I never changed. But they said, there’s  a problem over there. A lot of bodies  

Lying around this particular facility. I  knew what the facility was, and I said,   that’s not good, but who would have ever thought? And we did a phenomenal job. We  never got credit for that. Look,   kind of credit. We got credit for a  great economy. We got a lot of credit,  

Too. But we really did a great job in  that. Nobody knew what the hell it was. But they said, there was nobody that  could ever have come even close to   us. Look at how the farmers  were doing. And by that time,  

We had to deal with China. We had  everything cook, and we made USMCA. Everybody said, you’ll never be  able to change NAFTA. Remember,   NAFTA, that horrible, horrible deal,  one of the worst trade deals ever   made. But a vote for Donald Trump in these  caucuses is a vote to secure our border.

It’s a vote to stop. The invasion of  millions of people from parts unknown.   We don’t even know where the hell they  come from. They come from parts unknown.   It’s a vote to rescue our economy, and  it’s a vote to reclaim our democracy  

From Crooked Joe Biden and the entire  criminal class in our nation’s capital. They’re criminals. What they’re  doing with voters and what they’re   doing with the weaponization  of the system and elections,   what they’re doing is incredible. I mean,  I’ve gotten indicted more than Al Capone.

Al Capone. Do you know Al Capone Scarface?  You know? You get a scar from here to here,   and he didn’t get it. I always say, playing  tiddlywinks, right? He was a rather rough guy.  

And if he had dinner with you, if he didn’t like  the way you smiled, they’d shoot you the next day. You’d get killed, probably the next night. But  you’d be gone. He got indicted less than me. I   got indicted because I said we had a rigged  election. But unlike every other candidate  

In this race with me, you know, in your  heart that I will always put America first. We put America first. And with God’s  help, our job will get done. And it’ll   get done like it did before. We did more.  I mean, we rebuilt our military. We got  

The biggest tax cuts in history. We got  the biggest regulation cuts in history. Right to try. Hopefully nobody in  this room needs it. But, you know,   we have space age. We have the greatest  doctors and laboratories in the world.   And people couldn’t use it. If  they were sick, they’d go to Asia.

They’d go to Europe. They’d go all  over the world. If they had money,   if they didn’t have money, they’d go home  and they’d die. I got right to try so that   we could take something that wouldn’t be  approved for five or six years by the FDA.

I moved that up, too, by the way. That  used to be 12 years. We cut it down in   half. And it was going further. But right to try   gave you the right to sign a very quick  document and get whatever is out there.

You know, they used to say, we can’t  do that, sir. There’s great liability.   Supposing they die. Say they’re terminal. They’re  terminal. Only terminal. You have to be very,   very sick. People that are very sick  that you wouldn’t believe the results.

The results are thousands and thousands  of people are living right now. You know,   the laboratories didn’t want it  because a lot of people would die   and they didn’t want that in the  record. Doctors didn’t want it. Our country didn’t want it because we didn’t want  the liability. And they signed something saying,  

You have no liability whatsoever.  There’s nobody has any liability,   but we got to do it. They’re terminally ill. These are terminally ill people. And  we are saving thousands of lives. And   it sort of worked out the opposite  for some of these great laboratories   because instead of having liability,  they’re showing it really works.

Because you’re bringing people that  were going to be dead very soon and   you’re bringing them back to life. And, you know,   some of the stuff that they’ve done is  incredible. Some very honored by that. They’ve been trying to get that for  54 years and they didn’t get it,  

But I got it. And we had to get it through  Congress too, thank you. And that had to   go through Congress. You know, much of it,  you hear about all these executive orders,   but a lot of the stuff to get it done and  get it done right has to go through Congress.

And we got that through Congress. It  was a great victory. And victories   cannot come soon enough for our country. As  we speak, the last remnants of our open and   broken border are crumbling into rubble  as millions and millions of people storm  

Into the United States in the largest illegal  mass migration in the history of the world. There’s never been a country in  the world, third world country,   banana republic. There’s never been  anything like what you’re watching   on television. And they pretend  like they’ve got it under control.

Last month, they set a record.  Hundreds of thousands of people,   bigger than practically any city  in your great state. I think bigger   just about than any city came in just  last month and numbers like nobody’s. And they pretend like it’s under control. It’s  not under control. It’s totally out of control.  

And part of the reason they want them to  come in is in my opinion, because look,   they’re not stupid. Anybody that can cheat  on an election like that is not stupid, okay? Because their professionals are cheating.  But anybody that can cheat like that,  

They’re not stupid, people. So there’s  two things, and then a third. Number one,   they’re stupid. Number two, right?  Number two, they hate our country. And number three, they want those people  to vote. And that’s a bad one. That’s the   one that scares us most. And I’m telling  you, they’re signing people. That’s what  

They’re doing. And I believe now that that’s  why they’re allowing these people to come in. People that don’t speak our language,   they’re signing them up to vote. And I  believe that’s why you’re having millions   of people pour into our country. And it  could very well affect the next election.

And I believe that’s why they’re doing it,  because they know what they’re doing. You know,   if they could do as well in running  the country, in making deals with other   countries so we don’t get ripped off every  time, every deal we have is a horrible deal.

I mean, Europe is laughing at us. Look at  Ukraine. We’re in for 200 billion. Europe   is in for 20 billion. Why? And Europe  is a very similar size when you add up   the country’s very similar economy. So  they’re in for 20 and we’re in for 200.

When I was doing NAFTA, when I said,  you know, the NAFTA deals so unfair,   but NATO, you take a look at NATO,  every deal is horrible. I haven’t   seen any deals that are like good deals.  So we’ve renegotiated with South Korea,  

With Japan, with Abbey, who was so great,  but you know, what happened to Abbey? I was a terrible, he was a great, great  gentleman, great man, but we renegotiated   the Japanese deal for the farmers and for  manufacturers, and it worked out to be.  

Really good. We started off with a horrible  base because the deal was so one -sided. You know, they sell millions of  cars. And we, I said, Shinzo,   let me ask you a question. How many  cars are we selling in the middle  

Of Tokyo? How many Chevrolet’s are  we selling in the middle of Tokyo? I don’t believe any. That’s  right. We have none. You know,   it’s a very one -sided deal. And we changed  it around a lot, especially for the farmers,  

Frankly, especially for the farmers. But we  changed, we changed all of these things around. And we were rocking and rolling. If you look  back 10 years, if you look back five years,   you’d see that there was a statistic that  was scary. China was going to overtake us  

In 2018 or 2019. And we were hitting it so good. And we picked up so much. We left them in  the dust. We left them in the dust. They   never even came close. And I always  say, if we have a smart president,  

That will never happen. But now we’re giving  it all back to China, what we’re doing. And, you know, he wants to end the tariffs.  These tariffs are bringing in billions of   dollars that I put on China. No president’s  ever given, no president’s ever gotten 10 cents,  

Not 10 cents. And he wants to give it  back so far he hasn’t been able to,   because it’s so much money that he  hasn’t been able to pull it off. But he would like to give it back,  the tariffs. And if they do that,  

If they do give that back, China will literally  take over this country economically. It’s a,   it would be a horrible thing. But,  you know, putting those tariffs on   was not the easiest thing to do, but they  paid us hundreds of billions of dollars.

And as I say, I always say proudly,  and my people say, please don’t take   Iowa for granted. Don’t take our, sir. Please  don’t take, you can’t, because I always say,   how the hell do I lose Iowa? I got the  farmers of this country, $28 billion.

How the hell do I? And they’re always  saying, right? But they’re always saying,   sir, please don’t. I said, I’ll  take my chances. Nobody else. Look,   Ron DeSanc -Damonius was against the  farmers, and he was against ethanol. Nikki is against farmers. She wanted  to decimate social security. So did he,  

By the way. He wanted to move the age up to  70. She wanted to go higher than that. I mean,   and these people, one thing about a politician,  because I dealt on the other side of politics a   lot too, one thing about a, they always  go back to what they originally had.

That’s their, that’s their inclination.  They always go back to what they,   where they originally were. But  I was for all of your things,   and I was for your ethanol, and ethanol, let  me tell you, it’s always a battle with ethanol.

It’s not easy. But I saved ethanol, and they  will get rid of it immediately. They’re going   to get rid of it immediately. I can tell you  that, despite even though all of a sudden they   become ethanol people, you know, this, this  industry is going to give Ron a little party.

Like 12 people are going to show up.  Because of his stance on ethanol. Tell   him to go back a year and a half and take  a look at his, his real stance. A record   300 ,000 illegal aliens were detected  crossing the border in December alone.

That’s the largest number in history. That’s  the biggest number in history. And under the   Trump administration, we had the most  secure border in the United States in   U .S. history three years ago. So you  went from the most secure border with,  

By the way, the least number of drugs  pouring into our country in 22 years. Okay. And that’s not acceptable. Look, the way,   if you want to stop the drug epidemic into our  country, which is killing, in my opinion, 250,  

300 ,000 people, they always say 100.  It’s not 100. It’s much more than that. You know what to do, right? You know what to do?   Vote for Trump! Vote for Trump! Vote  for Trump! Vote for Trump! Vote for  

Trump! Vote for Trump! Vote for Trump! Vote  for Trump! Vote for Trump! Vote for Trump! Vote for Trump! You know, a drug dealer,  on average, will kill 500 people during   his or her lifetime, right? 500  people. When you think of it,  

That’s really bad news. But on average, we’ll  kill 500 people during his or her lifetime. And when I went to China and I saw President Xi,  I said, do you have a problem with drugs? No, no,  

No, we do not. Oh, why? Quick trial. Quick trial.  I knew what quick trial meant, right? Quick trial. Unlike our trials that lasted, you know,  400 years, except if I’m being tried. If   I’m being tried, they go quickly. They set  records. If I’m being tried for bullshit,  

They go fast. Mine. I’m setting records. They’ve never seen in Washington, D .C.  They’ve never seen speed like that. Other   guys that have been caught for seven  years, mine gets done like two months.   It’s nobody’s ever seen. What a two -tiered  system of justice we have in this country.

It’s horrible. It’s horrible. But if  you want to solve the drug problem,   that’s what you do. I said, you have  no, we don’t have any. They used to   have a fantastic problem. They used to  have a tremendous problem with drugs. It ruined the country, actually.  Japan took over China. Smaller  

Nation took over China because they had  the opium fields. They had their drugs,   tremendous drugs and amount of  drugs. And now they don’t have drugs. And they do it because if they say, if you  get caught selling drugs, you get the death  

Penalty and you go quickly, it’s a quick trial.  And everyone said, well, let’s get the hell   out of here. The drug dealer said, darling, I  think we’re going to head to the United States. Let’s sell them in the United States. So that’s  the way. But I’m not sure this country is ready  

For it. Because they’re destroying our country.  They’re ruining families. Many people in this   room, I’m sure, have been greatly affected  by drug -addicted kids who would have never,   that would have never happened if you  didn’t have these drugs pouring in,   usually mostly over the southern border.

But we had it down to a  record low for about 25 years,   just in what we were doing. We built  561 miles of border wall. And I always   get a kick out of this because they  say, oh, you only built 59 miles.

No, no. If there’s a piece of 2×4 laying on  the ground that’s 40 years old and rotted,   but it used to be like to stop a bicycle  from coming, whatever. If there’s a little   piece of steel laying there and it  hasn’t been painted in 100 years,  

It used to be there many, many years ago,  laying just on the ground, flat, nothing else,   they consider that a renovation  when you build a big monster wall. So they say, no, no, he only built 58  miles. No, no. We built 561 miles of  

Wall. That’s why we had the safest  border. That, and in all fairness,   Mexico giving us 28 ,000 soldiers worth billions  of dollars, by the way, 28 ,000 soldiers. I went to the President. I said, you have to  give us 28 ,000 soldiers for the border. No,  

No, no, we won’t do that. The  head of the State Department,   who was very much involved with  Mexico, said, you’ll never get it, sir. We’ve been trying to get that for  years. You’ll never get it. I said,   no, we’ll get it, 100 percent. Then  we’ll also get Remain in Mexico,  

And we’ll also get Catch and Release.  You know what Catch and Release? They catch them and release  them in our country. Well,   we got Catch and Release. We release them  in Mexico. We catch them and release them   in Mexico. And we got nine other  things that were just as bad.

We got nine other things. You know, your  medical component, if you’re very sick,   you don’t come into our country. I’m sorry.  You can’t come in. You know, we don’t want   people catching various diseases that were  very prevalent and are prevalent right now.

So we did a great job. But they said that  won’t happen. And the chief represented a   very handsome guy, good -looking guy, came  in to see me representing the President of   Mexico. Who happens to be a great guy  as a socialist, but you can’t help.

You can’t have everything,  right? But he’s a great guy,   actually. He’s a friend of mine. But I  said, you have to do this. But he came over,   and I said, here’s what we’re going to  need. I told the person representing,  

You know, dealing with Mexico from the State  Department, I said, here’s what you have to do. Give me your top 10 things. I  said, I went to Border Patrol,   Brandon Judd. I went to Tom Homan. Great.  These are great people, by the way. I said,  

Give me your top 10 things that  you need. Sir, they’ll never do it. I told you, at 100 percent, the  person in the State Department,   a woman who was really very good, but she  never won a battle with Mexico because they  

Wouldn’t do anything, right? Because they,  you know, they don’t listen to our people. So I said, no, they’ll do everything.  Give me the top 10. So I took the   top 10 things from everybody. I had  them up. We took the top 10 things,  

All tough to get. Like, remaining  in Mexico is tough, right? You know, you don’t remain here,  you remain. You got to take a look   at Tijuana until Biden came in. He  just let everybody flow right into   the country. So it’s so crazy. It’s so  crazy. But I said, no, we’ll get him.

So he comes in and I said, listen, we need  28 ,000 soldiers free of charge. No, no,   no, no, no, no, no. We’re not doing that.  He looked at me like I was crazy. I said,   no, you’re going to do that. 100 percent.

He goes, I said, we’re going to need  Remain in Mexico. In other words,   everybody has to remain in Mexico. They can’t  come into the United States. They’ve got to   remain in your country. And then  if we want them, we’ll take them.

And if we don’t want them, they’ll  go back to their other country. No,   no, no, no, we won’t do that. Then I said,   catch and release. We’re going to catch them.  We’re going to release them in your country. No, no, no. I said, no, you’ll  do it. No, you will. No, sir,  

You don’t understand me. I will not do  that. I will not. I said, no, no. Okay,   you ready? 100 percent. You’re going to  do it. He didn’t know what was going on. He didn’t understand it. He said, I won’t do  it. I said, you’re going to do it. And here’s  

The story. If you don’t do it, I have legislation  in front of me that I had the right to sign. I’m   going to tax all of the cars that just all  from our country when you manufacture them. You know, they sold 32 percent of the  manufacturing ability of the United  

States over the years, not through me, before  me. Every car coming across and every product   coming across from Mexico into the United States  is going to have a tariff of 25 percent on it. And that’s more money than all of the stuff that  we’re talking about put together. And he said,  

He’s going like this. I can’t breathe.  You know? It’s like a little choke,   little choke going on. But he said, may I  have a few minutes to make a phone call? I said, let me guess, you’re calling the  President, right? Give him my regards,  

But try and be back within five minutes.  He comes back within five minutes. He said,   sir, it would be a great honor to  supply you with 28 ,000 soldiers. It would be a great honor to have all  these people, including the criminals,   remain in Mexico. We would  love to have that. That’s  

Just what we want. That’s just what  we did. Gave me every single thing. And that person in the State Department,   a really nice woman, but she wasn’t  much of a negotiator, frankly. She said,   I’ve never seen anything like it. I’ve been  here for 25 years. I’ve never seen anything.

I got every single thing. Then when Biden  came in, he gave away almost all of it,   right? Gave away all of it. It’s crazy.  And Ron DeSaint -Damonius and Nikki Haley   and all the rest of the pack will never  do what it takes to secure the border.

They’ll never do what it takes to make our  country great again. They’re never going to   do it. I know them. I know them all very well.  They don’t have what it takes. Nikki Haley has   been in the pocket of the open borders  establishment donors her entire career.

And she’s a globalist, you know? She likes  to globe. I like America first. The people   in this room like America first. And Nikki Haley’s  campaign is being funded by Biden donors. Did you   know that? Biden donors, because they’re trying  to get her, like in particular, here we’re doing.

So, well, I think they’ve sort of given  up. Do you notice this sort of like out   of here? But in New Hampshire, they have a  lot of Biden donors and contributors putting   money into our campaign. That tells you that  should be enough to stop her right there.

Oh, she stopped. Hey, listen, they had  a poll last week. It was a classic. Just   to show you how fake the media is. So the  headline was, Haley Surges. I said, uh -oh,   this is the bed. I better read this little thing.

So I went up seven points to 74. Okay?  I went up seven. She went up two points,   and Ron DeSanc -Timonius went down one.  So instead of being down two points,   she was even with Ron DeSanc -Timonius now.

So the headline, and she was at  10, and he was at 10. He’s at 10   or 11. I was at 72 or 74. And the  headline was Haley Surges. That’s   because it’s fake. The media is fake.  So anyway, we like these little quips.

You think they’re under teleprompter?  You think Biden could tell you stories   like that? He’d get lost. Can’t find his  way off the stage. Now, think of it. You   think he ever goes off teleprompter? He’s  no good when he’s reading the teleprompter.

He read it today. He got all confused. He didn’t  know where the hell he was. He’s reading about,   he’s saying that I’m a threat to democracy. And   he had a hard time. I’m with it.  She opposed my border wall, Nikki.

She condemned my strong borders policy. And  in 2016, she stabbed the Republican Party in   the back by siding with Barack Hussein  Obama against a thing called the Trump   Travel Ban. We didn’t want to have people from  countries that hate us coming into our country.

We don’t want our shopping centers blown  up if it’s okay with you. We don’t want   our people killed and decimated and  bombed and shot and everything else.   And it passed. It went through the  Supreme Court and it just passed. And, you know, we had no  terrorism problems in this  

Country and the whole world didn’t  have. You know, I got to tell you,   because he’s a great man. He’s actually  a great leader. He’s a very tough man. He’s the toughest man in Europe. One of  the toughest, probably the toughest leader,   maybe anywhere. Victor Orban from  Hungary. Anybody hear of him? He’s  

Tough. But he’s a very good man.  But they asked him a question. What would you do if you were  President Biden? What would you   do? What would you do because the  whole world is blowing up? Israel,   Ukraine, and Russia. The whole Middle  East is just ready. It’s a counter.

It wasn’t that way three years ago. Three  years ago, everything was good. Iran was   not going to do anything. Nobody was.  We’re going to get, we’re getting along   with everybody. They knew North Korea is now  acting up again, as you know, Kim Jong -un.

But he liked me. The press hates when I  say that I liked him. He liked me. They   hate it. They say it’s terrible. And  that’s not a bad thing. You know,   he’s got a lot of nuclear weapons.  They said he likes you a little bit.

He wouldn’t return Obama’s phone calls. He didn’t  want to even meet with him. But I think they said,   what would you do? And they really said, I mean,  Orban was incredible. He said, what I’d do is  

I’d resign from office immediately and I’d say,  bring Trump and he’d a run because when he ran   this world, we didn’t have problems with Russia,  with Ukraine, with Israel, with Iran, with China. We didn’t have problems with anybody. They  feared him. Now he said they feared him. You  

Know? He said they feared him. I don’t  want to say that. That’s him saying it,   because I don’t want to say they feared me, but  they respected me and they respected our country. And they feared our country. But he said  they feared him and they weren’t going  

To mess around. But still, we didn’t have  problems with anything. And we didn’t have   problems at the border. We had the  most secure border we’ve ever had. Everything was nice. And this guy could  have gone, you know, likes going to the  

Beach. Somebody on his campaign said, you look  great in a bathing suit. Now, when you know,   what is he, 82 or 81? Look, there are, look, I’m  not that far behind, but I’m 100 percent up here.

I feel I’m better than I was 25 years ago. I  think I’d know it. I think I’d know it. I really,   maybe you know it, but you don’t want to  know it. You know, that could be also like  

That. But I think I’d know it, you know,  when you said it’s great to be in Idaho. Is that where we are? The worst is when he  said it’s great to be in Florida and he was   here. There were no palm trees here. Did  they have palm trees here? Not too many,  

Right? No, but I think, but, but he said that. He said, when Trump was president, the whole  world was safe. There was nobody going to   play games. They feared him. He said they  feared him. But let’s say they respected me,   but they feared our country  and there were no problems.

And we didn’t have any. We had no problems with  Islamic people that want to come in and blow the   hell out of our cities. We had nothing. Now, I  didn’t want to say that when I was president,  

But you know, we had gotten through three and  a half years and I really wanted to say it,   but I didn’t like the idea of saying it  because in the next day something happens. I said, boy, do we look, it happened  to them. They would say, well,  

We’re doing fairly well. They weren’t doing great,   but they were doing fairly well. Then Israel  was attacked the following day, right? You saw that. They said, well, we’re doing pretty  well there too. And we’ve been very nice. Well,   they were so nice that it’s the  worst problem that Israel has had,  

Certainly, probably, possibly ever. We’re going to find out pretty soon because it’s  moving along rapidly. And the biggest problem is   we have no leadership on our side. We have no idea  what we’re doing. We have no idea what to ask for.

We have no leadership on our side.  But Victor Orban, most respected man,   probably the toughest man in Europe, maybe  beyond Europe. He made that statement. I   was very honored by that statement because  I’m only about making our country great,   saving our country, and I want  to help the world if possible.

If possible, we’ll help the world. A lot  of it you can do with a phone call. I mean,   I can tell people on a phone. I can say,  you can’t do that. You can’t do that. I   told it to a very nice good friend of  mine, the head of, you know, France.

They make nice champagne and wine. And they  were going to tax our companies or companies   were going to be taxed very substantially  in France. They were putting a big tax on   American companies. And I had my people call up  and say, we’re not going to allow that to happen.

And they didn’t care. My people  spent two months, a capable people,   but they couldn’t do it. And I said,  let me do it. And I spoke to Macron.   Do you know Macron? He said, nice  man. He said, actually, a nice man.

But he’s for France, you know? I’m for  the USA and he’s from France. And I said,   Emmanuel, how are you? Oh, Donald,   I am fine. Thank you so much. It’s such an  honor to talk to you. Thank you very much.

You might not like me so much after this call. How  are you? I understand, Emmanuel, that you’re going   to be taxing American companies doing business in  France. Oh, yes, yes, yes. It’s, that has passed. I’m so sorry to tell you, but  that has passed. I said, well,  

I don’t think it’s passed. I really don’t think  it’s passed. Or if it has, you can unpass it.   Because if you don’t take that tax of American,  you know, I want to protect American companies. That means you and a lot of people. Why  should they tax American companies? I said,  

If you don’t take that tax off, I’m going to  tax at 100 percent, I’m going to tax every   bottle of champagne and every bottle of wine  that comes into the United States of France. And I know that’s a soft spot for them, right?  That’s like a soft spot. And he goes, no, no,  

No, you cannot do that. That is not fair. I said,   that’s okay. You got five minutes to  tell me yes. And after that, I’m sorry. Calls me back in five minutes. We have agreed  to do that. We are taking off all of the,   I did that in about four minutes. I’ll give you,  

Add it totally up. My guys were working on it  for two and a half months and getting nowhere. But you can do a lot of things  if you’re president. If you know,   if you know how to do it. You know how to  do it. And I still remain friendly. I mean,  

You don’t have to burn the  bridges. And he respects it. They respect that more than some dope  that doesn’t know what’s happening.   They respect you more. They like you.  They almost like you more. You know,   they came out. All these guys,  they like me. Boris called.

He wants to come. They all want to  come see me. They like me. And yet   there’s nobody been tougher, like  Russia. They all say, oh, Russia,   Russia, Russia. I ended the Russian  pipeline. It was called Nord Stream 2. That was the biggest thing they’ve  ever done. And I ended it. And Biden,  

His first day in office, approved it and let  it be built. And I had it stopped. And Putin   would say, you know, they say we’re  friendly and that you’re nice to me. I’d hate like hell to see if you were  not nice to me. Because think of it,  

I ended that. I had tariffs and I  had all sorts of things on Russian,   Russian citizens. But I got along  with Putin. That’s not a bad thing. But his nobody, he would tell you,  the historians will someday tell you   there’s nobody that’s been tougher on  Russia. And Russia would have never,  

As we said, would have never, ever  in a million years gone into Ukraine. That only started when I left. Once I was out,   all of a sudden they start forming. And I thought  he was doing it for negotiation purposes. But,  

And they could have had a deal, by the way. They  could have had, that could have been a deal. That’s a deal that would have been  easy to make. And instead of a deal,   it’s now all those millions, I think. I  think the numbers are going to be much  

Greater than you’re hearing. You know,  when you see that they knocked down nine   buildings in a city in Ukraine and  two people were hurt, no, no, no. Many people were killed. Many people were  killed. I think when you see the real numbers,   you’re going to see numbers that are shocking,  

How bad they are. And that’s something  that would have been easy to do. Even without a deal, he wouldn’t  have done it. Because part of the   reason he did it is Biden let energy  prices, barrels of oil go up so high  

That they made a fortune. So they did  it for that because he was making it. It went over $100 a barrel. And at that, he  could prosecute a war and make a fortune.   He’s the only guy that ever had a war and  made an absolute fortune. And it shouldn’t  

Have happened. And this guy is always talking,  you know, the green New Deal and all this stuff. But in the meantime, he’s allowed a  lot of these countries that, let’s say,   they’re not particularly friendly to us to make  a fortune because the oil price went up so high,  

It’s a shame. The guy is grossly incompetent. What’s happened is horrible because I  had it at $40 a barrel. At $40 a barrel,   he didn’t have the money to go in  and fight Ukraine. At $100 a barrel,  

The guy is making a fortune. So with Biden, he  keeps the oil price up and it’s very high now. But now he’s going to do something artificial  to get it down for the election. Watch. But   as soon as the election is over, it’s  going to be over for you. You know,  

He tapped into the strategic reserves that  I had so much to do with bringing it up. And then it took it almost down to the lowest  point. It was down to the lowest point,   they say, in history because he wanted to  keep gas prices low during the- it wasn’t  

Meant for that. But he wanted  to keep gas prices low so that   the election would go and you wouldn’t  have had to pay, you know, $9 a gallon. You’d pay $2 .5, $3 a gallon. It’s called  artificial pricing. And he did that. And  

As soon as it was over, it went  way up. Now it’s still high. But   it’s coming down because they’re making  all sorts of moves on other countries. We’re getting oil now from Venezuela. We’re  getting oil now from Iran. The people,   I wouldn’t let them buy from  Iran. They’re now sending us,  

Oh, can you believe it? The whole thing  is crazy. Nikki Haley would sell you out. And Ron DeSaint Timonius would sell  you out so quickly. And they’re going   to all grant amnesty to Biden’s illegal  aliens when Biden comes in. And sadly,   the establishment losers and  sellouts lagging far behind us and  

The Republican primary cannot be trusted  on taxes, on trade, or on anything else. You can’t trust them on taxes. They  want to raise your taxes like crazy.   They’re globalists and they always will  be. And they always want to take care  

Of global countries. And somewhere along  the line, they think that’s good for us. I think they probably believe  it or they’re crooked, you know,   some are crooked. I really believe some  are crooked. But I think some probably   believe it. They can’t explain  why because it doesn’t make sense.

No, it’s about America. It’s about America. First,   we have to take care of our own  country. And we can help others,   but we have to take care of our own country.  There’s nothing you can do to change these people.

They’ll betray you just like they betrayed  me. I mean, I told you that DeSaint Timonius,   I got him elected. He went up like a rocket ship   as soon as I pressed that little button.  Now it’s truth. Truth is the best, right?

But is everybody on truth? I hope. Truth is  the one. That’s the one. But at that time,   there was no truth. It was before,  and I tweeted a little statement,   and he went up like a rocket  ship. He went from getting killed.

He was dead. He was going to leave  the race to winning the race,   just with one little press of a  button. It’s an amazing thing,   isn’t it? But there’s never been anything like it  from, you know, the standpoint of an endorsement.

So he won. But Nikki said she would have  news coverage. This is a great President.   I will never run against him, right? You’ve  seen that. Have you seen her clips? We have   about nine of them. There are a lot more  than that, but we don’t want to bore you.

But no, I will never, ever even consider running  against the President. He was a great President.   Then a year and a half later, I’ve decided to run  and the President said, oh, great. I don’t know.   There’s something about a lot of these politics,  because I don’t consider myself a politician.

I consider myself like you, well, workers.  We know how to do things and make money. But,   you know, and if she said she wanted to run,   let her say it up front. Don’t let her  just play you around like that for years.

And, you know, I never run against the  President. He’s so good. She actually   said I was a great President.  And I was a great President.   Look at all the things we did with  against… I love what they say.

A lot of people say you are. You are. That’s  so cute. A lot of people don’t understand   what they mean by that. But Iowa does not want  politicians like Ron DeSantis or Nikki Haley,   who both support a 23 percent national  sales tax, which is a disaster.

You don’t want politicians like Ron and Nikki,   who both want to gut Social Security and  Medicare and hurt our seniors. And, you know,   if you look at it, Ron voted three times to raise  the retirement age on Social Security over 70.

And Nikki would take the retirement  age to way, way higher than even the   number that Ron is talking about. I don’t  know why they want to do that. You know,   we have so much wealth underground. We have  so much liquid gold, I call it, underground.

You don’t need to do this. You don’t have to  destroy our senior citizens. When we drill,   baby drill, we’re going to make so much  money. We’ll be supplying the world. Unlike   DeSantis and Nikki Haley, we’ll always protect  Social Security and Medicare for our seniors.

Just remember that when you have to vote.  Although I think… Is there anybody in this   room that’s not going to vote for Trump?  Just had to… No, don’t raise your hand.   It could be dangerous. They’re going to say he  incited an insurrection, these stupid bastards.

He incited an insurrection. No, but  is there quietly raise your hand? Is   there anybody here that’s not going  to vote for Trump? That’s very nice.   They’re actually… They’re  upset by even the question. And they’re upset. They don’t  even like that question. Well,  

I appreciate it. But on my first day back in  the White House, I will terminate every open   borders policy of the Biden administration.  We’ll stop the invasion on our southern   border and begin the largest domestic  deportation operation in American history.

We have no choice. We have no choice.  Not like we have a choice. I will shift   massive portions of federal law  enforcement and all of the people   working on immigration. You know,  they’re not even allowed to work. They sign people up and they’re brought into  the inner sanctums of the country and just  

Leave the border open. They don’t even want  the border. How about where the governor of   Texas who endorsed me recently, Governor  Abbott, which was a nice endorsement. He’s become much more popular since he  endorsed me, actually. But he endorsed me.   And they’re fighting because the federal  government wants to cut the barbed wire.  

You know the barbed wire. They call it  razor wire, but it’s pretty tough stuff. But they have it along the Texas border, so that,   because Texas is just being inundated. What  they’re doing to Texas and Arizona is just   horrible. And they’re in court now because  they’re cutting. Did you ever see them?

They’re with Splicers. They’re cutting.  They’re cutting sections. They want people   to come. They’re cutting it. And the  people are waiting to be led into the   country. The whole thing is crazy. And  we’re not going to be doing that stuff. We’re going to be bringing our country  back. People say you’re conservative.  

It’s not a question of what we’re all, I  think everybody in this room is saying,   we’re people of common sense.  Right? People of common sense. Liberal, conservative, we’re  people of common sense. I mean,   you got to have borders and you have to  have honest elections. And everything else  

Is sort of, almost everything else is less  important. But you have to have borders. If you’re going to have a  country and you have to have,   you have to have free and fair elections.  Now it’s a shame. You’ll never have an   honest election with a mail -in  ballot. Remember that. You never.

Jimmy Carter said it. You know, they formed  the Carter Commission. He was there with   a couple of other respected senators, older  senators. And they came up and the big point   of their report was never do mail -in ballots  because you’ll never have an honest election.

He said that a long time ago. And  France just went to same -day voting,   all paper ballots, and voter ID. And they  had 36 million people vote for Macron.   They voted for Macron just to bring him  back. So he’s not going to be too upset.

Now, they voted for Macron. He won the  election. They had by 10 o ‘clock in the   evening, everybody went home,  and they had a real election,   you know? They have watermark  paper now, which is very secure. They can’t really produce it. You can’t copy  it. It’s watermark. They’ll try and cheat there,  

Too. But it’s the best system there is. It’s   really the system that we started  with when you get right down to it. But it’s better because you have the paper  technology is incredible, what they can do.   And we’ll immediately restore and expand  the Trump travel ban for those countries  

That are terror -plagued, and they want to  come into our country and hurt our people. We’re not going to let them come  into our country. They ended that.   They want everybody to come in. Come  on in, everybody. Come on in. Yes,  

You killed nine people, but we think  you’re going to be much better now. Not one thing has gotten  better, if you think about it,   under Crooked Joe Biden. The country  is a mess. We’re a laughing stock   all over the world. Under the Trump  administration, you were better off.

Your family was better off. Your neighbors  were better off. Your communities were   better off. And our country was  better off. The whole country was   better off. America was stronger,  richer, safer, and more confident. And it’s not even close. When I was behind the  beautiful Resolute Desk at the Oval Office,  

And it is a beauty. I will say. It’s  no wonder the same corrupt forces that   have been fighting us every step of the way  are now breaking every rule and shattering   every norm in a lawless attempt to keep  us from defeating them at the ballot box.

Nobody has ever seen what’s happened right now.   And it’s a double -edged sword. You  know, it can happen the other way,   too. It’s never happened the weaponization  of justice, like they’re doing right now. The DOJ is very corrupt. What  they’re doing is very corrupt.  

People aren’t going to take it. Joe  Biden is a threat to democracy. He’s   weaponizing law enforcement for a  high -level election interference. It’s all about election interference.  And I don’t even know if it’s him,   because I think he’s grossly incompetent.  But he’s surrounded by people that are  

Fascists and communists, and they’re  vicious, and they’re very small. For example, as I was landing for this  visit, I was informed that the corrupt   New York State Attorney General,  Letitia James, a corrupt person,   is now demanding that I pay $370 million in  penalties, where I did absolutely nothing wrong.

My financial statements you’ve been  reading about are great. They’re   great. The man who did the check of the  financial statements I’ve ever seen,   my financial statements are great.  And they’re very conservative. Just the exact opposite. The exact  opposite of what the highly political  

And totally corrupt New York State  Attorney General was trying to say   before she got to see my statements. She  ran for office on a, I will get Trump. Did you ever see her? I will get Trump. I will get  him. I’m going to get him. I’m going to kill him.  

I’m going to get Trump. If a Republican ever said  that, that have him put in jail for insurrection. She and the judge fraudulently valued  Mar -a -Lago in Palm Beach, Florida,   which is probably the greatest home  in America by far. At $18 million,  

That sounds like a lot, but it’s not. Because  it was good for their narrative doing that. And it was fraudulent for them to do  that. When in fact it’s worth 50 to   100 times that amount. We had people come in  a billion dollars, a billion five, whatever,  

But it’s a very valuable property. They  said, the judge said it was $18 million. I had people call up, I’ll  take five. They never use   the New York state statute. They have  a statute that they use. It’s vicious,   vicious. They never used the statute for  this before. I was not allowed a jury.

I had no jury. It’s up to a judge  who comes out of the clubhouses of   New York. Think of that. How would you  like to be in that position? There was   no victim because the banks made  a lot of money. Good, great loans.

The banks testified. But in particular, one bank  testified, great, great. Everything was great.   There was no default. There was no damages. There  was no nothing. Only a very happy bank that got   100 percent of its money back and in addition to  getting its money back made tremendous profits.

This case should never have been brought.  It should be in the commercial division.   The rigged judge would not let it go.  They wouldn’t allow it to leave his   side. He took it and usually gets  sent in because of its complexity. Although it wasn’t complex because  it turned out to be very simple,  

The statement is phenomenal. They said  the best statement he’s ever seen and   should have never been allowed  to be presented to this judge. It should have gone into the commercial  division, like all other cases like this,   but he kept it. And he’s a radical Trump  hater, hates Trump, like with a passion,  

I guess. I don’t know what it is.  He has a passion for hating Trump. And I should have never been gagged. They  had a gag order. They wouldn’t let me talk.   I can’t talk about certain very important  things, much more important than people  

Understand. The judge ruled that I was  guilty before he even started the case. In fact, I got a call. Sir, you’ve  been found guilty. I said, no,   the case starts in two weeks. I know,   but he found you guilty before the case starts.  Other than that, it was an extremely fair case.

Now, the corrupt AG just announced a little  while before I walked into the doors. So if   you don’t mind, I was a little bit angry when  I walked in. Did you notice the anger? Maybe  

Not. But the corrupt AG wants $370 million as  a fee for what I did, and I did nothing wrong. Nothing. 370 million, which  is much more than any loan,   much more. That was peanuts. This is  weaponization at a level that nobody  

Has ever seen. So violence is out of  control. People are fleeing New York. Businesses are fleeing New York.  Car thefts are up 191 percent in   New York. 191 percent. They should pay  me. But it’s prosecutorial misconduct.   And it’s a DOJ witch hunt because it’s  in total coordination with Biden’s deal.

So they’re charging me $370 million  fine for making a very small loan   that the bank wanted to make because  that’s what they do. They loan money   and they love my statement like me. But  I borrowed the money for that reason.

The bank wanted me to. You know, they  are in the business of loaning money.   That’s how they make money. And it  was a great loan for them. They got   all their money. They actually  testified. There was no default.

During the term of the loan, I actually  paid the loan back early. It was a great   loan. I’m very under -leveraged. We have  great cash, great everything. Built a great   company. And these fascists, what they’re  doing to our country is just unbelievable. So I did nothing wrong. It  was every, in every way,  

It was like a perfect, the bank  was so happy. They testify. No,   everything was good. Same thing with every  other thing. They were looking at things. 370 million for doing nothing wrong. I  took a loan. I paid the loan back and  

They charged me 370 million, which I guess  is more than two times the loan. Something   like that. But as a very intelligent  person just stated on truth, New York AG,   Leticia James has decided to increase the amount  she wants from Donald Trump in civil trial.

Initially, she requested $250 million,  and he did nothing wrong. Did nothing   wrong. They only want to hurt us because  they don’t want us running for office   because we’re leading Biden, crooked  Joe by a lot, and this is all this is.

This is a terrible intrusion into politics  and into our way of life. But now she wants   $370 million and she wants it fast.  And it’s a disgrace. I’ve never seen   anything like it. I hope everyone  can see this for what it really is.

This is the gentleman writing. He goes,  this is nothing more than a shakedown of   a leading candidate of her opposing  political party. She thinks she’s   gonna make hay with Washington, but  this is a coordination with the DOJ. The DOJ is doing this case with them. In fact,  

They moved one of the top political operatives  from the DOJ in Washington into the DA’s office   and into also the Attorney General’s  office. How would you like to be me? You think my life’s a lot of fun? Our  founding fathers would be turning in   their graves if they could see this. No American  

Should be okay with a political party  being weaponized against their enemies. This is not democracy, he says. This  is not constitutional. This is wrong   in every aspect. And the judge  and the AG should be arrested and   punished accordingly. And how much longer  can we allow this to happen in our country?

And all of this is being done because we’re  beating them so badly at the polls. In the   new morning console poll, we’re trouncing the  Republican primary field with Trump at 66,   to Sanctimonious at 11, and Haley at 11. That’s not bad. You know, we’re beating  DeSantis in Florida. Paul just came out.  

I’m at 88. He’s at, like, 11. Because  the people got wise to him. Really,   I think he screwed up his career pretty  good, I’ll tell you, but he deserves it. We’re also leading big here in Iowa, but,  again, take nothing for granted. We had  

The Des Moines Register come out with a great  poll recently. They’ve never been really nice   to me. They’ve always, I’ve always been  leading, but I’d end up doing better. But they were respectful. Actually,   it’s a very professional pollster, the Des  Moines Register. But it’s amazing. I mean,  

The numbers have just been amazing in Iowa.  The numbers are amazing in New Hampshire. But, you know, polls are a little bit like,  they’re a little bit like the media. They   have polls that lie. They had one poll in New  Hampshire where I was only leading by six or  

Seven points. You know, normally you’d be happy,  but we’re leading by maybe 30 points or something. But that caused a big stir.  You know, everybody said, oh,   Nikki’s doing great, but you know, it’s  crooked poll. In the general election,   we’re crushing Crooked Joe Biden by historic  margins in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Nevada,  

Arizona, Georgia, North Carolina, Ohio, Florida,  and every other swing state if there are any. The radical left Democrats were not going  to allow them to rig the presidential   election in 2024. That could allow it  to happen. Yeah. A little hot. You know,   this room wasn’t designed  exactly for this medical.

I’m sitting up here and I’ve got 200  degrees in this dam. I’m trying to be cool,   but if you don’t mind, I’m going to just do this a  little bit. Every time the radical left Democrats,   Marxists, communists, and fascists indict  me, I considered a great badge of honor.

I’m being, and it’s true. It’s true.  I’m being indicted for you. I’m being   indicted for you. Never forget, our enemies want   to take away my freedom because I will  never let them take away your freedom. I’m not going to let it happen.  They want to silence me because  

I will never let them silence you. And in the end,   they’re not after me. They’re after you. And  I just happened to be standing in their way. But this is big stuff. This is far more  than a campaign. This is the greatest  

Political movement in the history  of our country. I look around and   see all the MAGA shirts and Trump  and Trump and MAGA, MAGA, MAGA. Like that beautiful woman back there with  her Trump sweatshirt. I like that sweatshirt   a lot. But together we ended the NAFTA  disaster, the worst trade deal ever made,  

And replaced it with that great,  greatest trade deal maybe ever made. USMCA and all of you are beneficiaries.  You were getting killed for decades with   NAFTA. Now you got, you know why I  know it’s good? Because Mexico and   Canada are calling every single day  they want to renegotiate the deal.

They said, nope, the deal’s no good for them.  That makes me feel good, you know? Because I’m   negotiating for you. Because with NAFTA, they  wouldn’t let us negotiate anything. I took on   Communist China like no administration in history,  bringing hundreds of billions of dollars pouring  

Into our treasury when no other president  had gotten literally 10 cents from China. Not one president got a dime from  China. I then gave the farmers of   our country $28 billion straight out  of the tariffs I took from China,   a large part of which came to a  particular state known as Iowa.

Have you heard of it? Have you  heard of it? And just as I promised,   I also stood up for Iowa ethanol, and I  stood up under a lot of great odds. And   I did it myself. I didn’t have a lot of help,  I have to tell you, from some of your people.

I didn’t have a lot of help. I issued a  historic rule declaring that E -15 would   be made available all year round,  right, instead of the eight months,   and letting them use the existing pumps  which saved hundreds of millions of   dollars and created a lot of jobs that  otherwise wouldn’t have been created.

I said, what’s better, the older equipment  or the new? And I’m not surprised,   I hear it all the time. Well,  the older pumps are much better,   they’re much stronger, they’re made much  better. I said, let’s leave them, right? Let’s leave them. They’re actually  saying it’s better. Rhonda Sanctis  

Spent his entire career as a raging  opponent of ethanol. He will destroy   ethanol. I will protect ethanol for  four more years on the White House. And I think for Iowa, that’s a big thing. Before  I even arrive at the Oval Office, shortly after I  

Win the presidency, and we win the presidency,  because we’re going to do it together, it’s we   more than I, I will have the horrible war between  Russia and Ukraine settled, absolutely settled. And we will restore peace through strength all  over our planet. And I’m the only candidate who  

Can make this promise and mean it. I will  prevent World War III. You are very close   to a World War. You know, you don’t  have to be into it too much to know.

You just have to see what’s going on. You are very  close to a World War. And it would be most likely   a nuclear war. And if it’s a nuclear war, it’s  obliteration. It’s a level of power that nobody’s  

Ever seen and that nobody can even express, and  that frankly shouldn’t even be talked about. You know, we wouldn’t talk  about it in my administration,   and nobody else did either outside in  other countries. But we wouldn’t talk   about it. Now every day they’re talking  about nuclear. Nuclear, nuclear, nuclear.

It’s so devastating, it just don’t talk  about it. Don’t talk about it. I will lend   Biden’s inflation nightmare, save our  nation from debt and economic despair,   and we will, right from day one, wigan it,  drill, drill, drill, drill, baby drill.

Somebody said an oilman told me, and he’s a great  guy, a very successful guy, they say he looks at a   piece of land, he takes a straw. Now it has to be  a paper straw, so maybe it doesn’t work, you know?

You know, the paper straws come wrapped in  cellophane. Do you ever see this? I mean,   what’s going on? You got paper straws that are  wrapped in cellophane. This country’s gone wild,   but this man, he’s such a great  oilman, a really amazing guy.

He takes a straw and he puts it into the ground  and oil comes out. The big companies go out,   they spend billions looking for oil, this guy  looks just like this, just a straw and the oil  

Comes out. Now, we kid when I say that, but he’s  very good at finding oil, he’s a fantastic guy,   and we know so much about the industry,  and it’s knowing through common sense,   knowing through intelligence, knowing, you know,  that’s what’s going to fire up our factories.

Wind is not, it’s intermittent, it’s extremely  expensive, it’s 40 times more expensive. And,   you know, we need stuff that’s not  expensive. China, I see this guy,   John Kerry, flying in his private jet to China. To talk to them about coal, please don’t do  it. In the meantime, they’re building one  

Coal plant a week, and it’s now, I understand,  it’s even two, but talk to them about energy,   talk to them about coal, and then he leaves, I  think, he leaves, oh, we had great conversations. In the meantime, they’re building a plant  a week. And, you know, remember this,  

The currents, both sea and air, they fly right  over our country, you know that? The current,   the water comes down the Pacific, right out  of China, so when they dump their garbage in   the Pacific, it comes right down along our  coast, on the west coast, past Los Angeles,  

And much of it pours onto our land, but  our waters are very dirty because they   dump their garbage in the ocean, and  it’s about a four or five day journey. The tides bring it by, nobody ever talks about  that, but the same thing with the air, when  

The coal spews out of their plant, when the smoke  stacks are roaring, because they’re big industry,   and that’s what fires up big industry, we want  clean coal, we wanna take care of our miners,   you know, they have clean coal, they have natural  gas, it’s fantastic, so much less expensive,  

They don’t want you to use it anymore, they want  you to use things that don’t work and that won’t   fire up, but when they fire up their plants,  and all of that pollution comes over the seas,  

And it comes right over our land, and then they  want us to have clean, I say, wait a minute,   we’re gonna be clean, but it’s all flying,  just remember that, does that make sense? In other words, it’s all coming through the  currents, through the air, it all comes,  

They can name it, they can say exactly  where it’s going to be and when,   and here we are working to try and compete  with them, and they’re using fossil fuel,   and we’re supposed to use wind, wind, and by  the way, you know who makes the windmills?

China makes the windmills! And they say  that if you’re a big believer in this,   that the pollution coming from the making of  those massive steel structures is so great that   you can never save on the environment because  it’s so great if you’re a believer in that.

But they made all in Germany, and they  made mostly in China, with such fools,   you know, with such stupid fools. We had  a very interesting time because in 2016,   I used to talk about the border because the  border was bad, but nothing like it is today.

But I think I won maybe on the  border to a certain extent. And   I did such a good job that in 2020,  I couldn’t talk about it. You know,   they wouldn’t let me talk about it. My people  said, well, I don’t want to say like Biden.

They said, you know, he says,  they wouldn’t let me. They can,   you’re president, you can do whatever  you want. But my people said,   it’s not a good thing to talk about it  because, sir, nobody cares about it. Because I did such a good job  with the border that they said,  

Nobody wants to hear it, sir. They forgot.  I did such a good job that it was no longer   an issue. And that’s okay. But now it’s  so bad. The border is a very big thing. I think the border is the economy  and the border, the end inflation,  

Which is part of the economy.  But it’s something we have to   talk about. And if we don’t straighten it  out, we’re not going to have a country. We’re not going to have a country.  So I think the number will be more  

Than 15 million by the end of their  crazy term. And if that’s the case,   that’s bigger than New York State. And many  of these people should not be in our country. On day one, I will also cancel. Crooked  Joe Biden is insane. Ethan all killing.  

Electric vehicle mandate. I mean, the  problem is, very simple, you know,   simple statement. They don’t, they don’t go far. I’d like to make it much more complex. It  sounds like, you know, science. You know,   they don’t go far. The batteries  are too big. They’re very big,  

Very heavy. Dangerous. I  just picked up a new point. In cold weather, they’re really bad.  Dangerous and very cold weather. So you   get pretty cold weather up here. I can tell  you from my little 12 -foot walk outside of   the car. But in cold weather. And, you  know, they’re very expensive to make.

And they’re all going to be made in China  because they have the materials for that.   They’re going to all be made in China. So the auto  workers are going to be screwed by this guy. But,   you know, now they want, you probably heard  also, they want trucks to be all electric.

And if you take, like a Peterbill,  take the big 18 -wheelers,   whatever they are. You can go from one  side, the east coast to the west coast,   on one big, beautiful tank of diesel fuel  without a stop. They can go 2 ,000 miles.

And we can go with electric. They can go, I think  I heard, you’ll go, if you’re lucky, 300 miles. So   that would mean that have to do seven stops.  You talk about a supply chain problem. And I  

Met with some of the big, big trucking companies,  and it took me about a minute to understand this,   because, you know, it was supposed to  be fast studies, if you’re president. We have one that’s a very slow  study. But it wouldn’t matter,  

Because they must know this. And they  explained, one man said to me, big guy,   one of the biggest guys in the business, he said,  you know, for 50 years I’ve been in the business,   and every year the trucks got better and  better, faster, stronger, more beautiful.

Every year they made them better.  Even the quarters behind it said,   tell me about, what is it like in  one of those trucks? They said, sir,   it’s like the most beautiful apartment you’ve  ever, do you know what I’m talking about? They have like a place where they literally live,  

They live in those trucks. Those trucks are  everything to them. But he said, for 50 years,   every single year, these trucks got better,  more fuel efficient, everything was better. It was a beautiful thing. If they make  us go to electric, we will go back. 50  

Years we’ll be starting all over, it’ll  be primitive, we’ll be starting all over,   and it made a big impact on me. It’s  a very sad thing what’s happening. And they don’t want to hear about it. They  want our army tanks to be all electric,  

So that we, so go think of it. Now the  problem is there, they don’t go far again,   but the battery is so big that you’d  have to pull a truck behind them. It’s true. They actually have a design.  The Army tank, and it’s pulling like this,  

Because the batteries are massive. Like  the trucking thing, too, in the truck,   about half of its capacity  would be devoted to a battery. Can you imagine? Can you imagine? And yet, they  explain this to the people in the administration.  

They don’t care. They don’t care. They really  don’t care. But the Army tank is the beauty.   They want to be environmentally friendly as we  go in and blast the crap out of some nation. You know, we’re going to go in. We’re  going to be environmentally friendly  

As we blast that far away through their  front lines. But we’re doing it in an   environmentally friendly manner. How crazy are we? They have jets now, and I ended it, but  I’m sure they picked it up. They said,   sir, we have a fuel that is  unbelievably good in terms of  

The environment. These are fighter  jets, right? That I bought about. I rebuilt our entire military. The  entire military is rebuilt. They   had jets that were 55 years old. We  had fighter jets that were 55 years   old. China copied our most beautiful  plane ever made, I think, is the F -22.

Check it out. China has a copy of it.  I looked. That’s an F -22. But what is   that after China flagged on it? But  it’s an F -22. They copied it. Most   beautiful plane you’ve ever seen.  But now they want to go in a form.

It’s a biofuel. But I said, give me the  downside. Well, sort of the downside is   it’s 15% less efficient. That’s the difference  between shooting down and being shut down,   right? 15% less efficient. So  why are you trying to protect?

As you fly into an area that you want  to obliterate, you want to do it in   an environmentally friendly way. These  people are crazy. And we’re not going   to stand for it. And all of that stuff  is going to be written out on day one.

It’s all going out. You know the  steps when you make your speech   in front of millions of people and  you’re making the beautiful speech,   looking down to the white. That was  one of the great scenes I’ve ever seen.

By the way, I think J6 had an equal amount  of people. It’s the biggest crowd I believe   I ever spoke to. You never hear about that, do  you? You have the hostages, the J6 hostages,   I call them. Nobody’s been treated ever  in history so badly as those people.

Nobody’s ever been treated in  our country. But I think that,   you know, they always show whatever  was a thousand people coming down.   Remember the words, march peacefully and  patriotically, right? March peacefully. You ever hear Maxine Waters? You  ever hear her say about what to  

Do with Republicans? Kill them, go  in there. If they’re having lunch,   go in there. And can you imagine if I said  that? No, I said peacefully and patriotically. The whole thing is just very unfair. But those  J6 hostages going to jail for 20 years and 18  

Years and 12 doctors, lawyers, carpenters,  electricians, truck drivers, it’s one of the   saddest things. It’ll go down as one of the  saddest things in the history of our country. And those people have to be many of  them, I guess there are some. By the way,  

There was Antifa and there was FBI. There  were a lot of other people there too,   leading the charge. Leading the charge.  You saw the same people that I did. But just as I did before, I’ll appoint strong,   highly qualified pro -constitution Supreme  Court justices who will interpret the law as  

Written. And I hope they do that. We  have some big things going in there. I just saw the Supreme Court just  before it came. I got some beauties   today. I had the one and then I  had the other. Supreme Court is  

Taking the case from Colorado. And  so they’ll make it the same way. And you know what I do find and maybe say it,  maybe don’t, but I say it. A Democrat judge   appointed by let’s say Obama, they’re down and  they say, we’re appointed. That’s the end. When  

You are a Republican judge and you’re appointed  by let’s say Trump, they go out of their way to   hurt you so that they can show that they  have been fair, fair, honorable people. It’s an amazing difference. I’ve never seen  anything like it. You appoint some of these  

Radical left Democrats and they’ve right from the  beginning you say, we’re dead. And the Republican   judges want to go out of their way to be fair and  unbiased and even to a point where they hurt you.

And I guess it’s a different wiring system or  something. But all I want is fair. I fought   really hard to get three very, very  good people and they’re great people,   very smart people. And I just hope  that they’re going to be fair because,  

You know, the other side plays the ref,  like Bobby Knight, the great Bobby Knight. He played the ref, you know?  Throw chairs, smack people,   they do everything. And they  say, Bobby, stop it. Stop it,   Bobby. He was a great friend of mine. He  endorsed me in Indiana. He just passed away.

He was a tough guy, big, tough guy. He was great,   but he was a winner. He knew how to win. He  had the last undefeated team in basketball.   I guess he won three national championships. He  was a, without really the great, great player.

You know, he had teams and Bobby would scream at  the refs. He screamed and his people would say,   Bobby, stop it. Stop it. Stop it, Bobby.  You’re not going to win. He said, yeah,   but I’m going to win on the next one.

So what they do is I watch them on DeFace the  Nation this weekend. Ladies and gentlemen,   it’s Donald Trump on DeFace the  Nation. They hate it when I say that,   but sort of true. And they’re saying,  oh, Trump owns the Supreme Court.

He owns it. He owns it. If they make a  decision for him, it will be terrible.   It’ll ruin their reputations. He owns the  Supreme Court. If anybody put on three judges,   he owns the Supreme Court. If they rule  in his favor, it will be horrible for  

Them and will protest at their houses and  will do all of the things that you see. And that puts pressure on people to do  the wrong thing. What they’re doing is   no different than Bobby and I. They’re  playing the ref. I watched that. I said,  

Man, they’re really good.  They’re really good at it. And I just hope we get fair treatment because if  we don’t, our country is in big, big trouble. Does   everybody understand what I’m saying? I think so.  Because they’ll cover that completely differently.

They’ll cover that in a much different manner, but  I’m just saying it’s a very unfair situation that   takes place. So I will direct a completely  overhauled DOJ to investigate every radical   out -of -control prosecutor in America for  their illegal racist enforcement of the law.

And I’m also going to indemnify all  police officers and law enforcement   officials throughout the United  States to protect them from being   destroyed by the radical left for  taking strong actions on crime. We’re going to protect our police.  They’re afraid to do anything.  

They’re told not to do anything when  they walk into a department store in   Chicago and they walk out carrying  television sets and everything else. And the police, they want to do something,   but they’re told not to do it. And then  if they do it, they get in trouble. We  

Are going to indemnify them. They have  to stop crime. And they can stop it, too. They’ll do a great job. We’re going to  rebuild our cities into beacons of hope,   safety, and beauty. Better than ever before,  we’re going to rebuild our cities. Our cities  

Are in trouble. And we’ll work with Democrat  mayors and governors if we have to, but we will. No, we will. Look, they are all run by Democrats,   and they are all just about in horrible  shape. Safety will again be restored so  

That children can go outside and play in the  park without being beat up, molested, or shot. Is that okay? Even if you’re  in Iowa, you like that one,   right? You know? Because what’s happened to our  cities, you have to see, you wouldn’t even be,  

Not even recognizable. You know, San  Francisco, I own a big building in   San Francisco, and San Francisco was a  magnificent city 10, 12, 15 years ago. And today you look at what’s happened  to San Francisco. It’s so sad to see  

It. But all of them, Chicago, New York,  Philadelphia, Los Angeles, all of them,   they’re all run by Democrats. We’re also going  to fight to give you much better health care. We want to give you much better health  care than Obamacare. Now, look, I’m not,  

You know, they like to cover that. I’m going to,   we’re going to give you Obamacare as a  disaster. It’s very expensive for you. Forget about For the Country for  a Second. For you, it’s a horror   show. There have been tremendous  complaints over the last two years,  

Especially recently. We’re going to get you much  better health care at a lower price for you. And that will be there working on Obamacare or  doing something new. But we’re going to give you   much better because you have lousy health  care and it’s too expensive. On day one,  

I will sign a new executive order  to cut federal funding for any   school pushing critical race  theory, transgender insanity. And other inappropriate racial, sexual  or political content onto our children.   I will not give one penny to any school that  has a vaccine mandate or mask mandate. And  

Who believes I have to say this, but I do,  and I will keep men out of women’s sports. I will fully uphold the Second  Amendment. We will protect innocent life,   and we will restore free speech.  And I will secure our elections.  

Our goal will be one -day voting  with paper ballots and voter ID. That’s our goal. And every  Republican governor should   do that right now. There’s no reason to wait.  These Republican governors that don’t do it,   they’re not on our side. But until  then, Republicans have to win.

If you took all of these things that I’m  saying, there has never been anything   like what’s happening to our country right  now. Joe Biden has been a disaster. He’s   the worst president we’ve ever had. He’s the most  incompetent, and he’s the most corrupt president.

So if you want to save America  from crooked Joe Biden, then get   every patriot you know. Make sure they’re  registered Republicans. They have to be   registered. And then get them out to vote  in their local precinct caucus at 7 p .m. on Monday, January 15th.  Now, I’m going to be there,  

Okay? I’m going to be there. I guess  I should go maybe Des Moines. I’d come   here. I like you people, but maybe  Des Moines. Is that the best thing? But I’m going to be… She said, no,  come here. We have to get them out.  

So I’m going to be here, and I’m  going to be working at just like   everybody else. We have tremendous  numbers of precinct captains here. All these people with these gorgeous hats.  I want one of those hats. It’s the only way  

I can get one of those hats is if I  actually become a precinct captain.   I don’t know if I’m qualified to be a  precinct captain, but I’m going to try. But I thank you very much, by the way. I  appreciate it. But I’ll be here, and we’re  

Going to be working the caucuses. Personally,  the whole world is watching, so learn how to   caucus and find your caucus location, which is  often different than where you normally vote. It’s ia .DonaldjTrump .com. So, in  conclusion, from Fort Dodge to Cedar Rapids,  

From Des Moines to Davenport, from Waterloo  to Sioux Center, we stand on the shoulders   of generations of Iowa patriots who came  to the wilderness, braved the elements,   till the soil worked the fields, built  the factories, and poured out their blood,  

Sweat, and tears to make this country into the  greatest nation in the history of the world. And it’s not great any longer, but  it will soon be greater than ever   before. Promise you that. But now  we’re a nation in decline. We are a  

Failing nation. We are a nation  that has lost its confidence. It really has, hasn’t it? Lost its  confidence. That’s a sad thing to   say. Think of it. A nation  that’s lost its confidence,   lost its willpower, lost its strength.  We are a nation that has lost its way.

But we are not going to allow this horror to  continue. Three years ago, we were a great nation,   and we will soon be a great nation again. It  was hardworking patriots like you who built   this country, and it’s hardworking patriots  like you who are going to save our country.

We will fight for America like no other group  of people has ever fought before, ever, ever,   ever. 2024 is our final battle. It is our final  battle. If we lose this battle, we lose our   country. You have to get out there, and you have  to make sure they’re honest with their voting.

What they did in 2020 was horrible.  All of the problems that we have today,   you wouldn’t have any of them. You’d have  a lot more living people on our planet,   too. With you at my side, we  will demolish the deep state.

We will expel the war mongers from  our government. We will drive out the   globalists. We will cast out the communist  Marxists and fascists. We will throw off   the sick political class that hates our  country, and they do hate our country.

We will route the fake news media, and  we will evict Crooked Joe Biden from the   White House on election night 2024. The great  silent majority is rising like never before,   and under our leadership, the forgotten  man and woman will be forgotten no longer.

You’re going to be forgotten no  longer. We will love our country. We will take care of our country. We will pray to God for our  strength and for our liberty. And we will pray for God, and we will be with God. We will pray for God, and we will be with God.

We are one movement, one people, one  family, and one glorious nation under God. And together, we will make America powerful again. We’re going to make it very powerful. We will make America wealthy again. We will make America strong again. We will make America proud  again. We’re going to be proud.

We will make America safe again. And we will make America great again. Thank you. Thank you very much,  everybody. Thank you. Thank you, fellas. Thank you very much. Thank you. Go caucus! Thank you very much.
