TRANSCRIPT:

Lee Greenwood Song

DONALD TRUMP: But that was a great song, anyway. They got it a little wrong, but that’s good. You can never go wrong with Lee Greenwood. That, I can tell you. He’s great. So, thank you. And, Doctor, I think you’re okay over there? Yes? Everyone good? Let’s go. Let’s go.

Sad Stories and Open Borders

So, that was very sad, and there are so many sad stories for no reason whatsoever. Open borders. I call the open borders stupid policies. These are for stupid people. And we want people to come into our country, but we want them to come in legally. We want them to love our country and to love the people of our country. And we’ll do that, but they can’t just walk in from prisons and from all sorts of places.

Do you know the crime rates are down in many places, in many cities outside of this country? Because it’s all over the world. They’re coming in from the Congo. They’re coming in from — crime rates are down in Venezuela by 70 percent, 72 percent. Because they’re taking their criminals and depositing their criminals in the United States of America. Thank you very much.

The United States as an Occupied Country

And the United States is now an occupied country, but it will soon be an occupied country no longer. We are an occupied country. When you see what’s going on in Colorado — and I think Colorado is going to vote big for Trump, too. They were the ones — the governor over there, he’s a weak, ineffective, radical-left lunatic. He doesn’t know what to do because, in Aurora, they’re taking over the whole place.

But you know what he tried to do? He wanted to get me off the ballot. And the people of Colorado were not happy about it, including Democrats. And we won 9-0 in the Supreme Court. That’s what we had to do because of Colorado. And Colorado said, “We’re going to vote for Trump.” That was their form of rebellion. So I hope you do that. I hope you vote for Trump.

Liberation Day and Deportation Program

November 5th, 2024, will be Liberation Day in America. On day one, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history. I will rescue every city and town that has been invaded and conquered. And we will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail or kick them the hell out of our country and pass.

To expedite removal of the Trinidad, Uruguay, and other savage gangs, I will invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798. That’s an old one. You have to go back that far because, as we’ve grown and grown, our politics and politicians have become weaker and weaker. Our laws don’t mean anything. It’s so bad what’s happening to our country. And we’re becoming a very unsafe country. But we’re going to be a lot more unsafe when you realize that all of the criminals from every country in the world is being deposited right into our nation. And we’re not going to take it. But we’re using the Alien Enemies Act. Think of that. 1798. Boy, that’s a long time ago.

Targeting Migrant Criminal Networks and Sanctuary Cities

To target and dismantle every migrant criminal network operating on American soil. And it gives tremendous authority to everybody to straighten out our country. We’ve got to have a country. We’ve got to have borders. We’ve got to have fair elections. We’ve got to have a free press. Look how many people are back there. They’re all — there are just so many bad — they’re so fake. So many of them, they’re fake. They’re fake.

And if these monsters come back into our country, it’s an automatic 10 years in jail with no possibility of parole. And I’m hereby calling for the death penalty for any migrant that kills an American citizen or a law enforcement officer. And I will immediately ban all sanctuary cities in the United States. We’re ending sanctuary cities, which is sanctuary for criminals.

Making America Affordable Again

As we secure our border, we will bring back our economy. And, very simply, I will make America affordable again. It’s not affordable. Because these lunatics that we have running our government, they’ve allowed inflation to rise to a level that we’ve never seen before, and it’s not affordable. They’ve come down. The prices came down. And now they’re going — shooting back up again. It’s terrible, the job. We’ve got to get those costs down. And I’m going to get them down. You know how I’m going to get them down? We’re going to drill, baby, drill. We’re going to drill, baby, drill, bring energy down.

And we’re going to get interest rates down, too. They were at 2 percent with me, and now they’re at 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 percent. And you can’t get the money, even if you want to pay it. Kamala Harris cast the deciding votes that launched the worst inflation in our country’s history. She cost the typical American family over $30,000 in higher prices. Think of that — $30,000. And now, Kamala — a disaster who shouldn’t be allowed to run. She has no right to be running. You know what? You know the expression, right? They’re a threat to democracy. That’s what they are. They are the threat to democracy. Kamala wants to raise the typical family’s taxes by nearly $3,000 a year.

Executive Order for Price Relief and Cabinet Position

And I’m announcing today a new step that I’ll take to get emergency price relief to all Americans. On day one, I will sign an executive order directing every federal agency to immediately remove every single burdensome regulation driving up the cost of goods. They drive up the cost of goods.
