We appreciated it South Carolina Senate. Trump Kicks Off 2024 Campaign in South Carolina.
Thomas Alexander thank you very much, thanks Thomas appreciate it, House Speaker Merle Smith Thank you. Merle this campaign will be about issues Joe Biden has put America on the fast tract to ruin and destruction and we will ensure that he does not receive four more years, we had a tremendous period of time we ha a tremendous thing happening just two and a half years ago. I use to say fours years ago I used to say your years ago then three years ago, then two years and now it’s all of a sudden its catching, so two and half years you just take a look at what we did with this country was greatest economy ever the largest tax cuts in the history of our country largest regulation cuts in the history.
Our country Space Force right to try. We did so many things, strongest border in History. We built hundreds and hundreds of miles of the wall, we’ve got Mexico to give us 28,000 soldiers free of charge no cost and we had the greatest Border in history and among the lowest years ever recorded for drugs. and Now the drugs are literally 10 times more than they were just two years ago. What’s happening to our Country?
In 2024 the election is our one shot to save our country and we need a leader who is ready to do that on day one. We need a fighter who can stand up to the left who can stand up to the swamp and stand up to the media. Stand up to the Deep State and I allowed to say stand up to the Rhinos too. I think we can say that stand up to the Globalists in China and stand up for America and that’s what we do. Stand up for America and that’s why we had polls today come out the best. The best Polls I think I’ve ever had actually. And people are seeing and they’re liking us. But they’re also not liking what’s taking place in our country to change the whole system you need a President who can take on the whole system and a President that can win and we did great last time. We got 12 million more votes than we did the time before.
Somebody interviewed me recently and asked what was the difference between 2020 and 2016. I said the difference is we did much better in 2020 we did get many millions more votes, but we got to be careful on Election Day or as they call it now election period because these election days have gone into a long time. Another crazy thing that’s happened there’s only one president who has ever challenged the entire establishment in Washington and with your vote next yea we will do it again and I will do it again this will not be my campaign. This is going to be our campaign.
I just left New Hampshire and the relationship we have with that group of incredible Patriots is unbelievable. Thousands of people coming from just a plane to the site waving American flags so proud of our country and so discouraged by what’s happened. Together we will complete the unfinished business of making America great again. You know when they hit MAGA, that means Make America Great Again. We’re trying to explain that to a couple of Demo crates, they don’t quite get it.
The invasion on our border, that an invasion on our Southern Border. We went from the best I think to the worst in world. Henry, I think its the worst ever because no Third World Country would allow that to happen. This is an invasion that nobody ever had seen anything like it. Real numbers could be 15 million people not four or five million people. They have no idea what the number is. They’re coming from prisons and they are coming from mental institutions and they coming from l lot of bad places. Its going to cause us a lot of problems and we have to get that straightened out we have to get it straightened out faster, we have to remove a lot of people very very fast. Because we can’t have what they’re sending they are sending people that are killers, murders, they are sending rapists and they sending terrorist’s or terrorist are coming on their own and we cant allow this to happen.
The illegal border crossings are going to be send straight back home. Those bad ones especially and they’re going to go fast you know when we were doing this two and a half years ago we sent thousands of so called MS-13 members, you could call it. Some of the gangs and the gang from hell, these are not nice people and we sent them back home by the thousands and they didn’t want to take them back. They said no. We’re not and the Obama Administration couldn’t get them back they said. So we can’t get them back they won’t accept them. I said how much money do we pay them, so we pay them 750 million a year. Tell them we re not going to pay them anymore. I got a call the next day morning. From the three presidents of those three particular countries, “Sir we must be a misunderstanding, we’d love to have them back.” ” You have to keep paying, so we will take them back.”
We’re going to end the free reign of violent criminals and Democratic run cities and keep dangerous repeat offenders locked up in jail where they belong we’re going to stop the left-wing radical racists and perverts’ who are trying to indoctrinate our youth and trying to indoctrinate our youth and we’re going to get their Marxist hands off of our children. We’re going to defeat the cult of gender ideology and reaffirm that God Created two genders called men and women.
We are not going to allow men to play in women’s sports and by so doing you know what happens. We’re going to save the Dignity of women and we’re going to save women’s sports. We are going to bust up the censorship regime and brink back free speech again. We’re going to find the Deep State actors who have buried into government. Fire them and escort them from Federal Buildings and it’ll go very quickly we’re going to stop the appalling weaponization of our Justice System. There’s never been a justice system like this. It’s all investigation, investigation, I’ve been going through it for seven years.
Seven years, we want his taxes, to get the taxes that’s the end of that, nothing they were very good, said he’s very wealthy. But he didn’t pay a lot of tax but you know what we did we created tremendous jobs because that incentivized us to pay and create tremendous amounts of jobs and look we have a country it’s all about if you have to incentivize people and they’re taking the incentives away. We have to be very careful, but we have a weaponized justice system.
Like this country has never see before the FBI went to Twitter and they said the laptop is Russian misinformation, think of it Russian misinformation. And they said just don’t do anything, this is just before the election, then the election comes and goes and they said well I guess we got that one wrong right. Right they all got it wrong it’s a disgrace just that alone with such massive cheating the pollsters say it made a difference of 17 points we didn’t need 17 points we didn’t need almost anything we actually needed nothing and we’re going to restore election integrity. We need people to believe in our elections, they have to believe in election and they have to believe in borders, we need borders and we need Fair Elections, free elections and if you don’t have those two things you don’t have a country.
Most importantly we’re going to reverse every single crisis calamity and disaster that Joe Biden has created and bring safety, prosperity and prestige back to America and I will say we’re going to put America first as I did just two and a half years ago America was first and there’s never been a period of time like every day for the United States. It occurred to me that what’s happening now is its like April’s Fools, right? We have open borders when they should be closed April Fool’s Day Right? Who would want open borders with every body just pouring in, we have prisoners and people from mental institutions and terrorists being dumped into our country when they should not be accepted. April Fools right? We have not voter ID, when everyone want it even the Democrats they voted 88 percent want it. The ones that don’t want it are the leaders. Because they want to cheat in elections, it’s very simple there’s only one reason that you cannot want voter ID you know when they had their Democratic National Convention. I saw some of these guys, they had placards, they weren’t just little pictures, these were placards, they were bigger than the chest itself, except in maybe a couple of cases and these things were monster size and it had the name the picture everything about the person but for voting, they don’t want you to have voter ID.
We have a woke military that can’t fight or win has proven in Afghanistan the way they were taken out with such a disgrace and the people in the military are so great but leadership at the top is just a disgrace. That should have never ever happened. In Afghanistan everyone up here knows about it and we were doing great they respected us. Abdul the head of the Taliban, I called him and they said Abdul you’re killing a lot of our people, don’t do it Abdul. He was killing and shooting with the Obama Administration. People I got criticized for that call. Abdul don’t do it Abdul. Abdul said, Yes your excellency I understand. I said if you do it we’re going to hit you harder than anybody has ever been hit in history of our country and that’s very hard, because we do have a great military. A lot of people don’t even realize it because of the we run it. But we have great people we have great generals, not the television Generals. But I said Abdul don’t do it, he said but why do you send me a picture of my home, why do you send me a picture of my house, please tell me. I say to Abdul, that you’re gonna have to figure out for yourself. It’s a lovely house and for 18 months we had nobody, you know that Lindsay, we had nobody killed or shot, not one soldier. In fact Biden even making a speech during that period he said well say what you want for 18 months, nobody was killed, no soldier, not one injured, not shot in Afghanistan. And then they start screaming at him don’t say that you’re not supposed to say that because that’s good for the Republicans. But that’s true we didn’t have one soldier shot in 18 months. And then they had the catastrophe of that pull out, that horrible pull out the way they did it was so embarrassing. I believe it was the lowest day in our history. I really believe that and I think that’s one of the things that started with Russia. Russia looked at that and they saw the incompetence and they said wow this is a great time to go in and by the way that wouldn’t have ever happened. We should have a military that’s conceived in fighting and winning not conceived in woke and that’s what we want. We want a military that wants to win.
We’re proposed mandatory electric stoves, think of that and electric cars they want mandatory stoves, they want mandatory electric cars and the cars go for like two hours. What are you going to do everyone’s going to be sitting on the highway. we’re all going to be looking for a little plug-in, does anybody have a plug-in my car just stopped. I’ve been driving for an hour and 51 minutes, it’s ridiculous and people that are cooks, I’m not much of a cook, but the cooks are saying gas is better so use whatever you want, but have alternatives, if you want an electric car if you want an electric stove or a gas range.
What’s crazy, what they’re doing its crazy, we have people in the midst of the greatest crime wave in the history. That they wanted to de-fund our police. Again April Fools, who would think we have the greatest crime wave right now in history of our country crime is up in 78 cities. Nobody’s ever seen it like this and they wanted to defund the police and that’s never gone away. You know they tried to say well we’re just sort of kidding.
Trump speak is very long, we suggest you read the transcript for yourself.
