Donald Trump
00:00:00-00:00:31 (32 sec)No Signal (0.426)
Thank you very much. Thank you. Whoa, what a crowd. Whoa, what a crowd. I've been here many times. I say, we want car plants built here. We're building a lot of them. We're building a lot of them. Well, hello Michigan, great to be with you. Right? Special place. It's great to be back in this incredible state with thousands of loyal, hard working American patriots.
Donald Trump
00:00:31-00:01:01 (29 sec)No Signal (0.523)
We're all patriots. 17 days from now we're going to win the state of Michigan. We're going to win four more years in the White House. I'd like to speak with you today about one of the most vital issues in this race. You know what it is? It's the radical left's plan to erase American History, purge American values and destroy the American way of life.
Donald Trump
00:01:01-00:01:28 (27 sec)Weak (1.458)
And that's what they're trying to do. We see it every day. That's what they're trying to do, we're not gonna let that happen. This election will decide whether we preserve our magnificent heritage or whether we allow far left radicals to wipe it all away. That's not going to happen. Joe Biden, "Sleepy Joe" has made a corrupt bargain in exchange for his parties nomination.
Donald Trump
00:01:28-00:01:52 (24 sec)No Signal (0.093)
He has handed control of his party over to the hard core militant left. You know that. You see that every day. The Democrat party you once knew, longer. No, uh, just no longer it exists, right? It's not, this is not the same party. These people are crazy. It's now the party of Socialists, Marxists and left wing extremists.
Donald Trump
00:01:52-00:02:14 (22 sec)No Signal (0.392)
If Biden wins, the lawless demonstrators in our streets that are around Democrat run cities and states, not Republican run. These are Democrat run and we want to go in and we want to help 'em. And largely, they don't want to be helped. It's an incredible thing. But they're all over our streets and these areas will be ended.
Donald Trump
00:02:14-00:02:39 (25 sec)No Signal (0.236)
We want to end it. We want to end it. And you know that in theory they're supposed to say, "Please come in." They don't like to say it. Minneapolis, they said it. We went in and boy did that take about what, 30 minutes to solve that problem. And that's why, and that's why we're going to win. Minnesota hasn't been won since 1972 by a Republican.
Donald Trump
00:02:39-00:03:03 (24 sec)No Signal (0.394)
We're gonna win Minnesota. Of course having people like Omar doesn't hurt either. Omar. Ilhan Omar, she doesn't love our country too much. I don't think so. They crave power and God help us if they ever did get it. God help us. I can tell you that. You just have to look all over the world in different places, God help us.
Donald Trump
00:03:03-00:03:26 (23 sec)No Signal (0.835)
This election day, the people of Michigan must stop these anti-American radicals by issuing Joe Biden and his group a thundering defeat at the ballot box. And by the way it seems to be happening. It seems to be happening. I don't want to speak too early but, you know, there's a big story out right now. Do you know that?
Donald Trump
00:03:26-00:03:52 (26 sec)No Signal (0.369)
You know about it right? You know, we're supposed to be way behind until election day when all the Republicans go and, you're gonna have a red wave like you've never seen before. And even the fake news media is saying that we're gonna have a wave. We're gonna have a wave like you've never seen before. But, we're supposed to be way behind, you know, for the first few days.
Donald Trump
00:03:52-00:04:17 (25 sec)No Signal (0.897)
So it just came out, we're leading. Yes. Early voting. And let's not talk about, trust me. You know what they call that, an early maybe signal? Right? Maybe, who knows, but there's a lot of concern going on out there. This sounds like, a little bit like, four years ago but this should be much bigger because we've done everything we've said and more.
Donald Trump
00:04:17-00:04:41 (24 sec)Weak (1.326)
You know, we've done it all. We brought your -- in your case we've brought your plants back. Do you remember 12 years ago or so, I got Man of the Year in Michigan. I said, "Well that's nice." So I came to Michigan and I made this speech like, "Why are you allowing them to take your automobile business, your car making business, why are you allowing them to take it to Mexico and Canada and everyplace else, why are you allowing it?" I made this big deal.
Donald Trump
00:04:41-00:04:59 (18 sec)No Signal (0.4)
I actually got blasted for it. You know, they named me Man of the Year and I'm complaining, right? But no, I hated what -- it's probably why I'm here. It's probably the number one thing what they were doing to us in trade. But now, now Michigan has many, many factories. You didn't have a factory built for forty years.
Donald Trump
00:04:59-00:05:22 (23 sec)No Signal (0.505)
Now you have many factories being built, already built and a lot of 'em being expanded. It's a whole different ball game. A whole different ball game. And they come in from Japan, I'll tell ya. He just uh, retired, a great man. Prime Minister Abe. And I said to him, six months ago, I said uh, "Mr. Prime Minister, you've gotta get do, you've gotta get us some more factories.
Donald Trump
00:05:22-00:05:40 (18 sec)No Signal (0.569)
You're selling cars to us, we're not taxing you." You know, a lot of crazy policies. But, you gotta get us -- And he said uh, "Well, this is a thing for companies." I said, "You have great power, if you wanna do well, the government doesn't give up, you gotta do it." And he said, uh, "Well, we will look in to it." The next day they announced five factories coming in.
Donald Trump
00:05:40-00:06:07 (27 sec)No Signal (0.479)
And he was, he was a great Prime Minister and a great guy and he's a friend of ours. And uh, he was, of course he had a medical difficulty, but I'll tell you what, what a fabulous guy. But, we had, I mean what you're doing in Michigan has been amazing. Now, you gotta get your governor to open up your state, okay.
Donald Trump
00:06:07-00:06:46 (38 sec)No StressLens
And get your schools open. Get your schools open. The schools have to be open, right? [Audience chants "Lock her up"] Yeah. Lock 'em all up. And by the way you can show all these people, look where that goes, all the way over to there and all the way -- you can show, turn the cameras. Why don't you take -- they never like turning the cameras.
Donald Trump
00:06:46-00:07:19 (33 sec)Weak (1.432)
They never like to show the kind of crowds. That's a lot of people. That's a lot of people. Go ahead, turn your camera. Go ahead, turn it. They don't, they hate to do it. They hate to show the crowds. You know, if you're watching television, which a lot of people are when we do this stuff, or they wouldn't put us on, but they always have like this face right here, this, and about four people.
Donald Trump
00:07:19-00:07:39 (20 sec)No Signal (0.777)
We've actually made a couple of stars. You know, there's somebody behind me here, here, here, they try and show as few people as possible and if they had a certain look, it worked out pretty well. They became stars right? It's the way it works. That's the way it works. But you know uh, it's really, no it's an honor to have it, we're having these kinds of, of all things all over the country.
Donald Trump
00:07:39-00:08:12 (33 sec)Weak (1.401)
I didn't even say, "Was it a big crowd?" I just get off the plane and we talk, and the spirit is so incredible. Our enthusiasm is so incredible. It's so incredible. [Audience chants "USA"] Now the spirit is incredible. I don't think there's even been, it's like that little phrase, I won't even say it 'cause you'll say, "Oh, why is he bringing that up?" So I won't say it, but you said it.
Donald Trump
00:08:12-00:08:30 (18 sec)No Signal (0.666)
But that's never been used before. Nobody's ever heard that before. And we like Ronald Reagan, we like a lot of people. Nobody's ever heard that phrase before. You know why because people, first of all, we've made tremendous progress. We've rebuilt our military, we've cut your taxes at the highest level.
Donald Trump
00:08:30-00:09:11 (41 sec)No StressLens
We've gotten rid of more regulations than any President in history no matter how long they were in office. Oh, by the way, we just uh, set a record. By the end of the first term, we will have at, maybe even more than 300 Federal Judges and, and, and, three great Supreme Court Justices. So you have Justice Cavanaugh, Justice Gorsuch, and you have -- Amy is going through right now.
Donald Trump
00:09:11-00:09:30 (18 sec)No Signal (0.751)
Yeah, she's great. She's done, she's done amazingly well. It's amazing to watch her compared to some of these radical left Senators. It's like from a different ball game, right? It's like, go ahead, go ahead, hold up, we'd like to see your notes. Oh okay, here they are, there's nothing. Unlike Joe, she doesn't need notes.
Donald Trump
00:09:30-00:09:55 (25 sec)No Signal (0.677)
It's nice, right? Joe, he takes out, the other day, did you see it? He takes out notes, uh 200 billion do -- he's, he's lost it, you know that. The modern left does not use reason or persuasion to advance their cause. They use intimidation, coercion and control, and worse. They demand absolute allegiance or else, and you saw that yesterday.
Donald Trump
00:09:55-00:10:22 (27 sec)No Signal (0.262)
Did you see Dianne Feinstein? She, Lindsay Graham's a good guy , you know they're friendly, they've been working forever together. And she happened to grab him, he grabbed her, you know, it's a friendly. They want to destroy the woman. These people are sick. I know we want to bring it all together, but we got to sort of work on these things. One of the most sinister weapons of the extreme left culture is a thing called cancel, or cancel culture.
Donald Trump
00:10:22-00:10:51 (29 sec)No Signal (0.344)
They want to cancel our entire heritage. [Audience Boos] If you do not repeat each and every one of their lies, you will be banned, censored. Big tech titans, what they do, they harass, they expel. They fire you from your job or deny the chance to earn a living. Here in Michigan a teacher was fired for tweeting that, "Trump is our president." She got fired.
Donald Trump
00:10:51-00:11:12 (22 sec)No Signal (0.54)
Where is she, is she here tonight? [Audience Boos] Now, can you imagine? [Audience member calls out "This teacher loves you."] But you know, we got a lot of people that like that. We like that person a lot. Whoever you are, we love you and we'll be there for you. Did you hear about that? Or did you hear about that?
Donald Trump
00:11:12-00:11:40 (27 sec)No Signal (0.85)
Nobody told me that I'd have 40-mile-an-hour winds today. Would somebody give me a hat? Will you please give me a hat? I got all these hats, I'm the only one without a hat on. Get me a hat, they'll get it. They'll go into that big, beautiful plane. If they don't have a hat in that plane. Look at that. Is that beautiful? [Audience chants "We want Trump"] That's a beautiful plane.
Donald Trump
00:11:40-00:11:56 (17 sec)No Signal (0.655)
We have a beautiful country. Actually I have the exact same plane. [Laughs]. Yeah. Can you [Inaudible] said Boeing 757. It's a beautiful plane. Look at that though, get me a hat out of that plane, please. In Ohio, a high school football player was suspended for displaying a flag honoring our great police.
Donald Trump
00:11:56-00:12:19 (23 sec)No Signal (0.221)
You saw that. [Audience Boos] When The New York Times published a piece by Senator Tom Cotton, by the way, great senator from Arkansas, right? Great, great guy and great senator. The editor of The New York Times had to resign because they put Tom Cotton, he's brilliant. He's a brilliant person, brilliant student, brilliant everything.
Donald Trump
00:12:19-00:12:39 (20 sec)No Signal (0.555)
They put his piece in The New York Times and the person that put it in had to resign, get, now, can you believe this? [Audience boos] When the Philadelphia Inquirer published a piece saying that rioters shouldn't destroy buildings, that was the end of that journalist. I mean, can you believe it? These are not the tactics of a respectable political movement.
Donald Trump
00:12:39-00:13:04 (26 sec)No Signal (0.085)
This is the behavior of fascists, and as bad as you can get. The point of cancel culture is not to convince you, it's to humiliate you and break you and control you. But the American people will never submit, we will never apologize, and we not be controlled, and never be broken. No, nobody's seen anything let's, what's going on.
Donald Trump
00:13:04-00:13:27 (22 sec)No Signal (0.61)
Now, in other countries you have seen it, and those countries have, in every single case, ended up very badly. It's never going to happen to this country, and this country will never be a socialist country, just remember, ever. The most divisive and insidious strategy of the Marxists and the Democrat Socialists, and Communists, in all fairness.
Donald Trump
00:13:27-00:13:50 (23 sec)No Signal (0.176)
You know, people say, "Oh, that's not nice to use." Well, that's, you know, that's the step. That's the next step, you know. That's where it goes. Is there a crusade against American history, right, American history, and I just brought this out because they had things, I, you wouldn't even believe this. They falsely and constantly smear America as a sinister and racist country that must be torn apart piece by piece.
Donald Trump
00:13:50-00:14:20 (31 sec)No Signal (0.512)
It has to be torn apart. We're not tearing anything apart. We're here today, and you know the truth. America is the most magnificent, most virtuous nation that has ever existed, the most. We've liberated millions from tyranny, rescued countless millions all around the world from poverty, and built the most exceptional republic in human history.
Donald Trump
00:14:20-00:14:48 (27 sec)No Signal (0.617)
There's never been anything close. And you know what? I have a little secret just in this group, this small group of thousands of people. We're getting better and better and stronger and we're gonna have the best year we ever had. Yet the radical left despises this glorious inheritance. They despise it. When you watch and you see AOC plus three and you see these people they actually despise it.
Donald Trump
00:14:48-00:15:13 (26 sec)No Signal (0.443)
Last month the mayor of Washington, D.C. released a report that proposed the idea of removing or altering the Washington Monument, the Jefferson Memorial- [Audience Boos] ... the statues of Benjamin Franklin, Andrew Jackson and Christopher Columbus. No, now this is a serious report. [Audience member calls out "They're sick."] He says they're sick.
Donald Trump
00:15:13-00:15:43 (30 sec)No Signal (0.078)
I agree. I agree, I just, I'm not allowed to say it, right? No, this was a, a group, a star-spangled group. Let's get rid of the Washington Monument. Oh, that's a great idea, right? No, these people. But you know what, we laugh and we smile and everyone thinks it's... When this first started happening with statues of people that most of us, almost all of us never heard of, you know, started on the... I said, "Be careful, because they'll go after Jefferson, Washington. They'll go after Lincoln."
Donald Trump
00:15:43-00:16:00 (16 sec)No Signal (0.416)
And it was three years ago, and a friend of mine came to me the other day. He said, "You know, you said this was going to happen." I said, "I did?" He said, "Yeah, you did. You said all of a sudden it'll keep going up." They took out Robert E. Lee. They want to take out Grant. They want to take out anything.
Donald Trump
00:16:00-00:16:23 (23 sec)No Signal (0.236)
They basically want to take out our heritage, and we're not letting this happen. And Biden has absolutely, Biden has absolutely no control. He's shot, number one. But even if he wasn't shot he never had the kind of control that you have to have to be president. So then you have a group of people that want to blow up a gorgeous thing.
Donald Trump
00:16:23-00:16:47 (24 sec)No Signal (0.365)
You know, uh, we were leading by so much. This thing wasn't even gonna be an election, and then we had the plague come in, you know. This was, I had to go back to work on this stuff. I didn't have to come to Michigan. I said, "Look, we're building all these plants. You got the best year. You had the best year last year that you've ever had." You're gonna have a better year, you're gonna have a better year, you're gonna have a better year next year.
Donald Trump
00:16:47-00:17:10 (23 sec)No Signal (0.079)
But this thing was over. You know, look. Nothing's ever over, right? But I would have had to work about one-tenth, maybe less than that. It was essentially, we had the greatest economy, greatest employment. African American, Asian American, Hispanic American, women, with a diploma from high school, without a diploma from high school, top of your class at MIT, it didn't matter.
Donald Trump
00:17:10-00:17:26 (16 sec)No Signal (0.505)
You had the greatest economy you ever had. And then... And don't worry, it's gonna be, you're gonna have that next year. You're gonna, wait'll you see the third quarter numbers. You're gonna have great numbers, okay? You're gonna have great numbers. But, but, but we had to close it up and we saved millions of lives.
Donald Trump
00:17:26-00:17:51 (25 sec)No Signal (0.355)
It was supposed to be 2.2, the fake news never says that. But we are rebuilding and we're doing things that you wouldn't believe. But this cancel culture... So when we started, and I had to start all over and I had to do, you know, we had to do things a lot different. Became a lot different country for a period of time because we had this horrible plague that came from China and we're not gonna forget that it came from China.
Donald Trump
00:17:51-00:18:18 (27 sec)No Signal (0.784)
And all over the world it went, and it came from China, okay? It came from China, the China virus. So things changed, and we signed an incredible trade deal with China, but the ink hadn't even dried and this happened. But I made a speech at a magnificent place called Mount Rushmore, right? Mount Rushmore in South Dakota.
Donald Trump
00:18:18-00:18:38 (20 sec)No Signal (0.094)
And I made this speech, and I think it was a very good speech, and it was well received and all that. It was so beautiful that, that the whole place... You have to see this. It was so beautiful, and the governor's fantastic. You know Kristi, right? Fantastic. And the people are fantastic, and they're so proud of it.
Donald Trump
00:18:38-00:18:58 (21 sec)No Signal (0.196)
And then I read where they want to blow up Mount Rushmore before I got there. I mean, they want to blow it up. We want to blow the face off Mount Rushmore. I don't think that's happening (laughs) I think. I think the people of South Dakota might, uh, not, uh, handle that too well, so it's not happening. But think of it, where does this thinking come from?
Donald Trump
00:18:58-00:19:19 (20 sec)No Signal (0.085)
Where does this sickness come from? And we have to stop it, and we've been. Like, Sleepy Joe said nothing when statues of Christopher Columbus... think of that, Christopher Columbus, they want to blow up all the statues. Now, he just blew the Italian Road by the way, so I don't know. Anybody who's Italian here, by any chance?
Donald Trump
00:19:19-00:19:37 (19 sec)No Signal (0.284)
Okay. If you're Italian, do you happen to like Christopher Columbus? Christophe, huh? Christopher Columbus, now think of it. You're Italian, they want to blow up... You know, we had it, I think it was in New York, so they wanted to, they were gonna rip down this gorgeous... right in New York, right? And the Italians circled it, they saw.
Donald Trump
00:19:37-00:20:05 (28 sec)No Signal (0.033)
That was the end of those people. They just sort of went away. You know, they're sitting there and standing there, and they had various things that they were holding. I won't get into that because they'll say, "That's terrible. He's inciting violence, the President." No, but the Italians, a group of Italians that lived in the neighborhood surrounded this particular statue and after about, uh, five minutes of talk back and forth the, uh, the radical anarchists and the Antifa people that nobody ever liked to talk about.
Donald Trump
00:20:05-00:20:24 (20 sec)No Signal (0.679)
They don't like to say Antifa. You know. They don't like to say Antifa. They like to blame everything on the right. This is the left. They like to blame everything on the right. But the Antifa people, okay, so they wanted to do it, but when they saw this group of people, they said, you know what, let's take a pass.
Donald Trump
00:20:24-00:21:01 (37 sec)No Signal (0.241)
Let's go someplace else and rip down a statue. But now they're not doing it too much 'cause I signed into law, I signed a bill that gives you ten years in jail if you rip down any federal statue. So, so, like, this is the group though. So this is the statues and memorial recommendation using the mayor's position, Washington, D.C., or in The National Capital Memorial Advisory Commission recommend the federal government remove, relocate the following: Christopher Columbus statue.
Donald Trump
00:21:01-00:21:22 (21 sec)No Signal (0.393)
Benjamin Franklin statue. Andrew Jackson, great, great general, really good president, a great general -- Andrew Jackson, the Battle of New Orleans, right? Right, the rag tags, remember? He came in with the British. They came in their beautiful uniforms. He had the rag tags. Th-the battle lasted about a half hour, right?
Donald Trump
00:21:22-00:21:42 (20 sec)No Signal (0.299)
They wanna take that statue of Andrew Jackson down right away, Thomas Jefferson. That's a tough one to take down, right? Thomas Jefferson. They wanna take down the Jefferson Memorial. Anybody see the Jefferson? I don't think we're moving. I'll tell you what, if I wasn't your president last summer, you may have the Jefferson Memorial taken down.
Donald Trump
00:21:42-00:22:12 (30 sec)No Signal (0.397)
It may be down. They weren't playing games. We weren't playing games either. The George Washington -- Okay here's the beauty We wanna take down the George Washington Memorial, the monument. Okay. Well, this is the commission. This is what we're dealing with folks. This is all [Inaudible] website [Inaudible] they wanted to remove the name of George Washington from all of the places all over the country where they used it.
Donald Trump
00:22:12-00:22:31 (19 sec)No Signal (0.112)
Then they found there's like 5,000 places. No. We'll keep the name George Washington if you don't mind. If the, if the media would, uh, perhaps, put it correctly, there's a lotta people back there. There's always a lot of people. You know? You watch those red lights. And as soon as I start talking about the red lights go off cause they know what I'm gonna say.
Donald Trump
00:22:31-00:22:52 (21 sec)No Signal (0.15)
You know, Joe Biden said nothing when statues of Christopher Columbus were in trouble. And a heroic signer of the Declaration of Independence was removed by the Democrat politicians in his home state of Delaware, which he never leaves, in all fairness. Where's Joe Biden speaking today? Delaware. He doesn't speak.
Donald Trump
00:22:52-00:23:11 (20 sec)No Signal (0.158)
You know what he does? He gets up -- How 'bout his, how 'bout his news conferences where the fake news media gives him the questions and the answers -- They say what do you think about this or that? And then he reads the answer. I've never, I've been doing this stuff not that long, you know. I haven't actually been doing it -- relatively speaking, I've been doing it for a very short period of time, right?
Donald Trump
00:23:11-00:23:30 (19 sec)No Signal (0.212)
In fact, that's one of the reasons they said I could never win. They said, He's never been a politician. But the fact is they gave him the questions. They gave him the answers. They will ask a question, and he will read to them the answer. And did you see the other night with George Stephanopoulos? It was like, you know, they call 'em softballs.
Donald Trump
00:23:30-00:23:56 (26 sec)Weak (1.44)
And then I had to go on with that person, you know, that person She was jumping out of her seat she was jumping out of her seat. And thank you very much, Johnny. Everybody know Johnny? Thank you. He's very conservative. He's a big star. And I hate to say this. It's very incorrect. You don't say it any more.
Donald Trump
00:23:56-00:24:25 (29 sec)No Signal (0.935)
But the women really like him a lot. Thank you. Thank you. Normally, when I have a hat, I like to take the tie off the back with it, right? I say, is that all right, Johnny, yeah? Okay. Thank you. Thank you, all. So last work, Biden, he attacked Christopher Columbus by refusing to recognize Columbus Day.
Donald Trump
00:24:25-00:24:47 (22 sec)No Signal (0.11)
And he wants to change the name of Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day. Wh-who likes that idea? Who likes it? What the heck are you saying? That's politically incorrect. See what they don't understand is they're politically incorrect. So he wants to change it to Indigenous Peoples Day. Uh, not as long as I'm president.
Donald Trump

Exclusion is a protest. And they didn't even use the word peaceful. I do, 'cause I like to make it sound a little only thing you could do is you could protest.

I withdrew from the last administration's disastrous Iran nuclear deal. $150 billion, for nothing, here's $150 billion. $1.8 billion in cash, I'm even more impressed with that, think of it, cash, $1.8 billion they got.

I kept my promise, recognize the true capital of Israel and opened the American Embassy in Jerusalem. I also recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, 52 years they were working for. 52 years they'd come in every year, they'd fly in with those beautiful jets, and everybody would come in and they'd have lunch and they'd talk two or three days, then they'd leave. 52 years that went on, I did it in about two hours.

Golan Heights and instead of endless war, we are forging peace in the Middle East. No blood on the sand, no blood, no blood. I did more in 47 months than sleepy Joe Biden did in 47 years, which is true. Now the democrats are pushing the most far left agenda ever put forward by a presidential nominee. The Biden plan would destroy social security and destroy protections for pre-existing conditions.

His running mate co-sponsors a socialist health care plan to ban private insurance, you allottee you have private insurance, we have 180 million people, and they love their private insurance, and they want it, they don't want to go into a hospital ward when they have a cold.

And Obama said that you can have your doctor and you can have your plan, and he said it 28 times, and he lied. Biden also supports abolishing school choice in charter schools, it's not gonna happen.

It's a vote for the American dream, that's what we're doing. And in conclusion, over the next four years, we will make America into the manufacturing superpower of the world, and we will end our reliance on China once and for all.

Thank you, we have a lot of law enforcement here. I said to Biden during the debate, I said, "Name one law enforcement group that supported you.", and Chris Wallace bailed him out. Then I said say the words" Law and order, just law and order, nothing fancy, law and order. We just want law and order. Everybody wants that." And he said he didn't want to get involved.

And then Chris Wallace bailed him out again. I said. "No, no, no, you can't do that.", you know, because I was really debating two people. No, I was really debating one, Chris Wallace. But I said, "Name it, name it.", then I think he said -- didn't he say something like, oh, law, order and safety and security and all this, you know, he wanted to soften it up because the radical left will throw him overboard without -- Nah, I said, "Say law and order.", but he couldn't do it, but he got bailed out.

In fact they had down as part of the script, I was supposed to read them, I said, "I can't read that long." I would have been reading here all day long, but we literally have every police group in the nation. We even got the endorsement of New York City Police, they've never done it before.

We've reduced it the first time in 51 years anyone's got -- but now we're talking a big because I've instituted a favored nation's laws. And I also got rid of the middle men.

It's all because of horrible legislation and crazy things. And we're thinking that probably Hunter Biden got a big piece of the action too, for his father.
