[00:02:31] >> [singing] [00:02:35] [cheering] [00:02:38] [applause] [00:02:39] >> USA. [cheering] [00:02:46] >> Thank you. [00:02:48] [cheering] [00:02:50] Well, thank you very much. And I'm [00:02:52] thrilled to be back in the great state [00:02:54] of Iowa [cheering] [00:02:58] >> with so many proud, hardworking American [00:03:01] patriots, which is what you are. It's [00:03:03] amazing state. What a place. Boy, do we [00:03:06] have some victories here with the [00:03:07] greatest. [cheering] [00:03:10] So, exactly two years ago this month, it [00:03:13] was the people of Iowa who put us on a [00:03:16] rocket ship back to the White House. [00:03:19] [cheering] [00:03:20] He's a rocker. [00:03:22] That was a quick one [applause] [00:03:26] after a rigged election. We had a rigged [00:03:28] election. I had a I said, "Do we do it [00:03:30] again?" And I said, "I think we better [00:03:32] do it again." [00:03:33] >> Oh, yeah. [00:03:34] >> Not too many people who would have said [00:03:35] that, [00:03:36] >> but we did so well the second time. I [00:03:38] said, "Well, we won twice. We got to do [00:03:41] it a third time. [00:03:44] [cheering] [00:03:45] [applause] [00:03:47] Should we do it a fourth time?" Four. [00:03:49] Four victory. [00:03:51] [cheering] [00:03:52] Four victory. [00:03:55] We got the right team over there. The [00:03:57] right team over there. [00:03:59] That would be easy for you. That [00:04:01] wouldn't even be work. But you came out [00:04:03] by the thousands on a cold and snowy [00:04:06] winter evening. You remember that [00:04:07] beautiful evening? And together we won [00:04:10] the Iowa caucuses in a 30point [00:04:13] landslide. That was great. [cheering] [00:04:16] I'll never forget it. It was so [00:04:17] freezing. You think it's cold now? That [00:04:21] blew it away. Whatever happened to [00:04:24] global warming, you know? Now it's uh [00:04:29] you know, it's like one of those things. [00:04:31] But it was the coldest night. I remember [00:04:33] it was way below zero. and they say, [00:04:35] "Sir, you don't have to come till 10 or [00:04:37] 11:00 because a caucus takes longer. [00:04:40] Then I got to call at like let's say the [00:04:43] polls close at 7. Sir, you've won." I [00:04:47] said, "I won what?" They told me 10:00. [00:04:49] They can't announce. They said, "You won [00:04:51] by so much they just called it at 1 [00:04:53] minute after 7." [cheering] So, [00:04:58] right. [applause] [00:04:59] So we made the journey [00:05:02] and we made that journey through all the [00:05:04] cars and everything else and we made a [00:05:06] speech. But what an evening that was. [00:05:08] Then in November we won the state by a [00:05:10] massive landslide. Uh that was [00:05:12] incredible [cheering] [00:05:14] in the election. [applause] [00:05:16] And we then went on to win all swing [00:05:18] states, all seven of them. They said [00:05:20] seven swings. Well, he could win four of [00:05:22] them. He's doing very well. But we won [00:05:24] seven. We won the electoral college 312 [00:05:28] to 226. We won the popular vote for the [00:05:32] first time of any Republican in many [00:05:33] decades by millions and millions of [00:05:35] votes. [cheering] [00:05:37] And we won a category that's very [00:05:40] important. We won 86% of all counties in [00:05:44] America. 2,700 to 525. How about that? [00:05:48] [cheering] [00:05:50] [applause] [00:05:53] Other than that, we didn't do too well. [00:05:56] So now we're back where it all started [00:05:58] to celebrate the greatest first year of [00:06:00] any administration in American history. [00:06:02] They say that even the radical left is [00:06:04] saying only we did a lot of things. 12 [00:06:08] months ago, Joe Biden handed us a mess. [00:06:11] We inherited the legacy of record high [00:06:13] inflation. The highest inflation in the [00:06:16] history of our country. They say the [00:06:18] fake news. Oh, that's a lot of fake [00:06:20] news. [00:06:22] No, the fake news. The fake news and [00:06:24] it's 48 years. I remember recently I [00:06:29] said the highest inflation, the worst. I [00:06:32] believe this by the way, the worst in [00:06:34] the history of our country. They said it [00:06:36] wasn't the worst. It was 48 years. I [00:06:38] said that's okay, too. [00:06:40] Somehow that sounds even worse than when [00:06:43] you say the history, right? 48 years. I [00:06:45] accepted that. But I think it was in the [00:06:48] history. A mass invasion of our border [00:06:50] and our country was being laughed at all [00:06:52] over the world. We were being laughed [00:06:54] at. We were a joke. But not a joke [00:06:56] anymore. [00:06:59] [cheering and applause] [00:07:03] [cheering] [00:07:06] >> WE'RE NOT A JOKE. WE'RE not being [00:07:07] laughed at anymore. But today, just [00:07:10] after one year of President Trump, our [00:07:13] economy is booming, incomes are rising, [00:07:15] investment is soaring, inflation has [00:07:17] been defeated, our border is closed, [00:07:20] totally closed. [00:07:24] [cheering] [00:07:25] And America is respected all over the [00:07:28] world like they've never been respected. [00:07:30] One year, I thought it would take us two [00:07:32] years. I guess I'm following in the [00:07:34] great path of John Deere. We got the [00:07:36] chairman of John Deere here. Chairman [00:07:37] and CEO. That's pretty good. [cheering] [00:07:41] [applause] [00:07:42] I even signed a John Deere hat for him. [00:07:44] He said, "I'm going to put this in the [00:07:45] museum." I said, "That's good." Now, [00:07:48] it's a great company. Great company. And [00:07:50] you just said you're opening up two [00:07:51] massive plants because of tariffs. [00:07:53] You're opening up one in North Carolina, [00:07:56] one someplace else. [00:07:58] And uh and you're expanding all over the [00:08:01] place. You're doing a great job doing I [00:08:03] bought a lot of John Deere, sir. I [00:08:06] bought a lot of John Deere. It's a great [00:08:07] company. It's an honor to have you. [00:08:09] Thank you very much. [00:08:11] This has been the most dramatic one-year [00:08:13] turnaround of any country in history in [00:08:15] terms of the speed. I really thought it [00:08:17] would take us two or three years to do [00:08:18] what we're doing. You know, we the [00:08:20] greatest the number one country anywhere [00:08:22] in history in the world anywhere in [00:08:25] history for investment coming into the [00:08:27] country. And uh it's amazing and it's [00:08:30] because of tariffs and it's also because [00:08:32] of the fact that we had such a [00:08:34] tremendous November 5th that November [00:08:36] 5th brought spirit back to our country [00:08:37] came back. You know one thing I I I [00:08:40] think which is so it's so important is [00:08:44] if you remember a year and a half ago we [00:08:46] couldn't get people to enlist in the [00:08:47] military. Any of them army navy air [00:08:49] force marines any of them the coast [00:08:52] guard space force. I love Space Force, [00:08:54] right? [00:08:55] >> We couldn't get them. And even police [00:08:57] departments, they couldn't get anybody [00:08:59] with a uniform represented the country. [00:09:01] You couldn't get them. And today, we [00:09:04] have the single greatest recruitment [00:09:06] numbers in the history of our military. [00:09:08] [cheering] The police forces are loaded. [00:09:11] Law enforcement is loaded up. And [00:09:14] everybody wants to be a policeman, a [00:09:16] fireman. They want to be [00:09:18] [applause and cheering] [00:09:18] they want to be in the military. Any [00:09:20] branch. I mean, we we literally they [00:09:23] couldn't get them a year and a half ago. [00:09:25] Nobody wanted to be in the military. [00:09:26] Now, everybody wants to be in the [00:09:28] military. It's an amazing thing that's [00:09:29] happened. An amazing turnaround. And all [00:09:32] because we have a president who does [00:09:35] something very simple. Puts America [00:09:38] first. Right. Right. [00:09:41] [cheering and applause] [00:09:45] USA. [applause] [00:09:49] USA. USA. [00:09:51] >> Thank you. USA. [00:09:53] >> So, under my leadership, economic growth [00:09:55] is exploding to numbers unheard of. [00:09:57] They've never had them before in recent [00:10:00] times. And now, and we're just getting [00:10:02] started. You know, the great big [00:10:04] beautiful bill, which is no tax on tips, [00:10:07] no tax on o overtime, no tax on social [00:10:10] security for our seniors. Do we have any [00:10:12] seniors in here? Do we have any seniors [00:10:15] in here? [00:10:18] >> [applause and cheering] [00:10:21] >> One of the fake news dudes said he did [00:10:23] that because he doesn't want to pay tax [00:10:25] on his social security. [00:10:27] Don't you believe? [laughter] That's [00:10:28] what I never thought of. These are sick. [00:10:30] These are sick people. But despite the [00:10:34] fact that we've just really started, [00:10:35] it's just kicking in because we [00:10:37] inherited such a horrible situation with [00:10:39] all of the high prices and the inflation [00:10:41] and everything else. And by the way, the [00:10:44] open borders, we had millions and all [00:10:46] everything you see today wouldn't [00:10:48] happen. They opened the borders, but we [00:10:50] had a 5.4% [00:10:52] and since the election, the stock market [00:10:54] is set 52 all-time highs, adding $9 [00:10:58] trillion in value to your savings, [00:11:00] retirement accounts, [applause] and [00:11:02] 401ks. [00:11:05] So [00:11:08] 401k people, I mean, of which you got a [00:11:10] lot of people. Does anybody have a 401k [00:11:12] in the audience? [cheering] [00:11:14] >> A lot of people. So, you're setting [00:11:16] records, right? The highest it's ever [00:11:18] been. They say this, you know, the good [00:11:20] stock market. They say, "Well, this [00:11:22] stock market, you know, they can't get, [00:11:23] they just try so hard. This stock market [00:11:25] doesn't affect the middle class." I say, [00:11:28] "It does. What about a 401k? What about [00:11:30] all the other things? What about the [00:11:32] fact that they're making more salary [00:11:34] than they've ever made?" But the stock [00:11:36] market's the highest. How is John Deere [00:11:38] stock doing? Great. alltime high. It's [00:11:41] all time everyone. I don't have to even [00:11:43] ask the question. I mean, I made a lot [00:11:45] of people rich. Me, I just keep working. [00:11:49] I made a lot of people rich. I made a [00:11:51] lot of people rich that I don't even [00:11:52] like. I got a lot of people that I don't [00:11:55] like at all. And I've made them I've [00:11:56] doubled their their net worth. But after [00:12:00] four years in which Biden got less than [00:12:02] $1 trillion in new investment, think of [00:12:04] it. He took in substantially less in [00:12:07] four years than one trillion. We secured [00:12:09] commitments for a record-breaking plus [00:12:13] 18 trillion. So in one year [cheering] [00:12:16] we did over 18 trillion and he did less [00:12:19] than one trillion. [cheering] [00:12:21] [applause] [00:12:24] Just over one year ago under Sleepy Joe [00:12:26] Biden and the radical left lunatics, [00:12:30] we were a dead country. We were a dead [00:12:32] country. I'll tell you, one year ago, a [00:12:33] little more than one year ago, we were a [00:12:35] dead country. The king of Saudi Arabia [00:12:37] told me that. You've heard me say it. He [00:12:39] said it better than anybody else. He [00:12:41] said, you know, I can't believe it. A [00:12:42] couple of months ago, a few months ago, [00:12:44] he said, "A year ago, you were a dead [00:12:46] country. Now you're the hottest country [00:12:48] anywhere in the world." He said, "I [00:12:49] can't believe it." [applause] [00:12:53] >> And today, I'm pleased to announce one [00:12:55] more historic investment. The great [00:12:58] American company that we just talked [00:13:00] about is doing so much. I I have to give [00:13:03] I have to give it really I buy so much [00:13:05] equipment from so many of the people in [00:13:07] the you know we have a lot of very [00:13:08] successful companies in here but I know [00:13:11] it's a very uh a very special deal [00:13:14] because John Deere is doing $70 million [00:13:17] in factory in North Carolina brand new [00:13:20] the best in the world and uh I think [00:13:22] it's going to pay off very very big and [00:13:25] if it doesn't uh I have nothing to do [00:13:27] with it but if it does I'm going to take [00:13:30] I'm going to take full credit, [00:13:34] but what it is is an excavator factory [00:13:36] as I understand it and it's going to be [00:13:38] the only excavator factory. In other [00:13:41] words, excavators, we all know I love [00:13:43] those excavators, believe it or not, I [00:13:45] know a lot about them. We don't make [00:13:47] them here. This is going to be the only [00:13:49] excavator entirely made in the United [00:13:52] States of America. [cheering] So, that's [00:13:55] [applause] [00:13:56] good. I love it. [00:13:59] I love it. [applause] [00:14:01] It's great. And that they'll all come. I [00:14:03] hate to tell you, but they're all going [00:14:05] to be coming, too. You're going to have [00:14:06] some competition, but you'll be ahead of [00:14:08] them. If congressional Democrats had [00:14:10] their way, this year would right now be [00:14:12] facing the largest t tax hike. So, they [00:14:16] wanted to give you, this is what I was [00:14:18] running against, the largest tax hike in [00:14:20] the history of our country. I wanted to [00:14:23] give you the largest tax cut in the [00:14:25] history of our country. [00:14:27] [applause] [00:14:30] And if they won, this country would be [00:14:32] cratering right now. It would be [00:14:34] cratering. So, I've cut a record number [00:14:36] of job killing regulations. The reason [00:14:38] our job numbers are so good, and [00:14:40] remember this, I've cut hundreds of [00:14:44] thousands of federal jobs. Now, if I [00:14:47] didn't do that, our numbers would be [00:14:49] even more through the roof. Or I could [00:14:52] get them. You know what they do in order [00:14:53] to have decent numbers? They hire a [00:14:55] million people. You hire a million [00:14:57] people, all of a sudden you're down to [00:14:58] three and a half%. We don't do that. We [00:15:01] get rid of that job where you have 10 [00:15:04] jobs for every You have 10 people for [00:15:06] every job. And they are all now and they [00:15:09] they hated me. They hated me. Now they [00:15:11] love me. You know why? They all got jobs [00:15:14] in the private sector making twice as [00:15:16] much money as they made from the federal [00:15:18] government. Sometimes much more than [00:15:19] that. [applause] [00:15:21] So a year ago they hated me and now they [00:15:23] love me. [00:15:25] But it includes dozens of burdensome [00:15:27] regulations that were crushing our [00:15:28] amazing farmers. We love our farmers. We [00:15:31] won this uh thing. I think I'm at 97% [00:15:34] with farmers. Well, who the hell is [00:15:37] voting for Kamala? [00:15:41] >> You know, it's it was a crazy election [00:15:43] because we were doing great against [00:15:46] Biden. Our whole Nobody even knew who [00:15:48] the hell Kamala was. All I knew she was [00:15:50] the borders. We had millions of people [00:15:52] pouring through and she was the border. [00:15:53] So, I like that. But, but I will tell [00:15:56] you the uh the amazing we didn't know [00:15:58] much about her and you know when you're [00:16:00] running a campaign, you're focused on [00:16:02] the person you're running against. So, [00:16:03] we're running against sleepy Joe Biden. [00:16:04] Crooked. I call him Crooked Joe. Sleepy [00:16:06] Joe. They're both accurate. [00:16:09] And we're running against him all of us. [00:16:11] And he's way down in the polls, down by [00:16:13] a lot. And all of a sudden, they take [00:16:15] him out and they put a new This is like [00:16:17] I told Dana White the other night, it's [00:16:19] like taking a fighter, putting him in, [00:16:21] he's getting the hell beat out. you take [00:16:22] them out and you put a new fighter in. I [00:16:25] said, "That's not fair." But that's what [00:16:27] happened to me. The stuff that happened [00:16:28] to me can only happen to me. But I [00:16:32] repealed the Biden's EPA ridiculous [00:16:35] water restrictions to keep federal [00:16:36] bureaucrats off your land and out of [00:16:38] your business. That was a big one. [00:16:40] [cheering] [00:16:41] That was a big one. [applause] [00:16:44] I terminated the so-called diesel [00:16:47] exhaust fluid requirement. You know what [00:16:49] that is? [cheering] [00:16:52] saving family farmers more than $1 [00:16:55] billion a year. And we're going to do a [00:16:57] lot more. We're going to do something on [00:16:59] tractors. You know, they never took the [00:17:01] We did it with cars. We took all that [00:17:03] nonsense off the cars. You couldn't [00:17:05] start your car. You'd have to go to MIT [00:17:08] to get somebody to fix your car with all [00:17:10] the crap they had on it in order to save [00:17:13] a quarter of a glass of this much little [00:17:14] tiny bit of gas. These people are crazy. [00:17:20] And I'm going to do that, I think, for [00:17:21] tractors, too, because we're going to [00:17:23] get the tractors back where [cheering] [00:17:27] [applause] [00:17:29] >> where you don't have to be a PhD [00:17:31] in order to start your tractor, in order [00:17:34] to keep the environment clean. So much [00:17:37] nonsense. I think it's it makes the [00:17:39] environment dirty, actually. And they [00:17:42] very importantly on day one I kept my [00:17:44] promise to the people of Iowa and [00:17:46] abolished the insane electric vehicle [00:17:49] mandate which would have obligated [00:17:52] [cheering and applause] you to go out [00:17:54] and buy an electric car but it would [00:17:56] have obliterated a thing called ethanol. [00:17:58] Does do you like ethanol? [cheering] [00:18:02] Is it big? [00:18:04] [applause] [00:18:05] A lot of people are asking me about [00:18:07] ethanol. I don't know. I don't know. Do [00:18:09] do you want me to do something with [00:18:10] ethanol? Maybe. [cheering] [00:18:13] >> After years of the United States getting [00:18:16] ripped off by other countries on trade, [00:18:18] I'm standing up for the workers and the [00:18:21] farmers of our country like no other [00:18:23] president has ever. No other president's [00:18:24] done this. [00:18:26] >> I mean, no other president has done [00:18:28] this. I could had a nice easy [00:18:29] presidency. [00:18:30] I probably have this little piece of ear [00:18:33] back, you know. Could have I wouldn't [00:18:35] have to listen to lunatics like this up [00:18:37] there. [00:18:38] I wouldn't have to listen. Is that nice? [00:18:41] [cheering] [00:18:42] USA. [00:18:50] >> Boy, they're good here. [00:18:53] >> Do we love our law enforcement? They [00:18:55] work very quickly here. [cheering] [00:18:58] [applause] [00:19:02] But under Sleepy Joe, we had the largest [00:19:04] trade deficit in world history. But in [00:19:07] one year, I've slashed our gaping trade [00:19:10] deficit by a staggering 77%. [00:19:15] How about that? What about that? That's [00:19:17] [cheering] pretty good, right? [00:19:18] [applause] 77. Nobody's ever seen that. [00:19:21] You know, if you slash your trade [00:19:23] deficit by 1%, you're like a genius. [00:19:27] They say, "Oh, he's very electable." [00:19:29] He's not so electable. I did 77. I did [00:19:31] something else. Favorite nations on [00:19:34] drugs. We now will pay. We now are [00:19:36] paying the lowest price anywhere in the [00:19:40] world for drugs. In other words, we're [00:19:41] matching favored nations. It's called [00:19:44] most favored nations. Every other [00:19:46] president tried for it. They didn't try [00:19:48] very hard. They didn't get anything. I [00:19:49] got it done. I got all the nations to [00:19:51] agree. You think that was easy? [00:19:53] [applause and cheering] I said, if you [00:19:54] don't agree, we're going to put tariffs [00:19:56] on you. They said, we agree. We agree. [00:19:59] [applause and cheering] [00:20:00] So you'll have a pill that cost $10, as [00:20:05] an example, cost $10 in London, cost [00:20:09] $130 in De Moines, and now it's going to [00:20:13] cost $20. Think of it. You'll go from [00:20:15] $130 [00:20:17] down to It's the biggest price reduction [00:20:21] of prescription drugs in history. [00:20:24] and [cheering and applause] [00:20:27] going to have a huge impact on your [00:20:29] healthcare, too. [applause] [00:20:31] I was very proud of it. And you know, [00:20:33] the fake news, I can't get them to talk [00:20:34] about it. Think of it. I got the biggest [00:20:36] price reduction in history on drugs, [00:20:39] pharmaceuticals. I can't get these guys [00:20:41] to talk about it. It was page like 22 in [00:20:44] the New York Times, a little story. I [00:20:46] just got the biggest I can't believe it. [00:20:48] If a Democrat got a half a point down, [00:20:51] this is like hundreds of depending on [00:20:54] the way you want to calculate it. You [00:20:56] could say it's an 80% reduction or you [00:20:59] could say it's a th00and% reduction. You [00:21:01] could say whatever you want, but uh it's [00:21:03] the biggest reduction in history by many [00:21:06] many times. I did something because we [00:21:08] were subsidizing the entire world. We [00:21:11] were paying 10 times in many cases more [00:21:14] money than the rest of the world. And I [00:21:16] said it wasn't fair. And I got it done. [00:21:19] And everyone said before, they said, [00:21:21] "You'll never get other countries to [00:21:23] agree." [applause] They said, "Yeah." [00:21:25] They said, "Yes, I will." THEY SAID, [00:21:27] "YOU'LL NEVER GET THE OTHER COUNTRIES TO [00:21:29] AGREE." I GOT the drug companies. That [00:21:31] was not easy, I want to tell you. But [00:21:33] that was not so bad. But they even told [00:21:35] me, "We'll agree to it, but you'll never [00:21:37] get the other countries." I said, "100% [00:21:39] I will. Why wouldn't I get them?" And I [00:21:41] called Mcronone of France. I said, "You [00:21:43] got to double the price of your drugs." [00:21:46] He said, "No, no, no. I will not do [00:21:48] that." What was the story with his [00:21:50] glasses the other day? What the hell was [00:21:53] that all about? [00:21:55] But anyway, but I got them all. I don't [00:21:57] want to go into a law. Bottom line, I [00:21:59] said, "I'm going to increase tariffs by [00:22:01] 25. I'm going to charge you 25% tariff [00:22:04] if you don't do it." They said, "We will [00:22:05] do it. We would be Why don't you ask? [00:22:07] We'd love to do it." So, I got something [00:22:10] done that no other president could have [00:22:12] gotten done and no other president I [00:22:14] don't even think they tried. You want to [00:22:15] know the truth? Do you think Biden was [00:22:17] thinking about it? [00:22:18] >> He just was thinking about how the hell [00:22:20] to get off the stage. [laughter] [00:22:24] >> Remember the guy could never find it. [00:22:26] You have so many ways. You can jump off [00:22:28] the front if it really gets you got [00:22:30] stairs all over the place. The guy could [00:22:32] never find his way off the stage. This [00:22:34] was not a This was not a good sign. [00:22:37] >> But I've made new fair trade deals with [00:22:40] countries covering half of all US trade. [00:22:44] USA. [00:22:53] >> You You do know they're paid agitators, [00:22:55] right? They're paid. [cheering] [00:22:57] They get paid. You know, do you ever see [00:22:59] their signs? You know, we used to have [00:23:01] protests and you'd have guys making a [00:23:03] sign in a basement. These are all paid [00:23:05] agitators. That's all they are. They get [00:23:08] paid to to go and they don't even know [00:23:09] what when they interview him. Why are [00:23:11] you here? I don't know. They have no [00:23:14] idea. They're paid insurrectionists. [00:23:17] Really, in some cases, they're sickos. [00:23:20] But I've made new fair trade deals with [00:23:22] countries, covering half of all US [00:23:24] trade, scoring giant wins for the [00:23:26] farmers, ranchers, and agricultural [00:23:28] producers like no other president has [00:23:31] ever done. That's why I got such a [00:23:32] tremendous vote from the farmers. And I [00:23:34] love you, too. I do love [applause] you [00:23:36] too. [00:23:38] So, Japan [00:23:41] will now allow the United States to [00:23:43] supply up to 100% of automobile ethanol, [00:23:47] automotive ethanol, and import [00:23:49] [cheering] large amounts of aviation [00:23:52] bofuels [00:23:53] from the United States. That's great for [00:23:55] you. That was part of the deal that we [00:23:57] made. The United Kingdom will import [00:24:00] nearly $1 billion of ethanol. That's [00:24:03] part of their deal. [cheering] [00:24:06] Australia is allowing American beef into [00:24:09] its market for the first time in more [00:24:11] than 20 years. Did you know that? [00:24:13] [cheering and applause] [00:24:14] And beef is doing great. And we got to [00:24:16] get the prices down a little bit. And [00:24:17] they're starting to come down pretty [00:24:18] much. China has agreed to purchase over [00:24:21] $40 billion of US grown soybeans. You [00:24:23] know that you're selling them. [00:24:25] [cheering] [00:24:26] [applause] [00:24:27] They're selling them. And it went to [00:24:29] President She. He's upping it. I mean, [00:24:31] he's It's $40 billion. The European [00:24:34] Union will dramatically increase [00:24:35] purchases of American pork, dairy, and [00:24:38] soybean oil. They never did that before. [00:24:40] They're all doing things that they never [00:24:41] did before because you have a certain [00:24:44] president that's a little bit different [00:24:45] from the presidency you had before. [00:24:47] [cheering] [00:24:48] And nations from Cambodia to Thailand to [00:24:54] the Philippines and Indonesia are [00:24:56] eliminating all trade barriers to [00:24:59] agricultural products. your agricultural [00:25:01] products had trade barriers that didn't [00:25:04] allow them to be sold in countries that [00:25:06] are now saying, "Oh, please, we'd love [00:25:08] to accept your product." So, that's [00:25:09] great. It's going to be you're going to [00:25:11] see it starting to kick in now for the [00:25:12] farmers and to further help our farmers [00:25:15] recover from the cat really a [00:25:17] catastrophe of the Biden years. What a [00:25:20] period of years that we had. We had a [00:25:22] country that was just dead. We had a [00:25:24] country that was just not respected by [00:25:27] anybody. [00:25:29] We had a guy who didn't know where the [00:25:32] hell he was. [00:25:35] >> Do you think he worried about his farmer [00:25:37] at night? No. He just wanted to go to [00:25:39] sleep. Just This is what we had. This is [00:25:43] what we had in our fake election. We [00:25:46] recently issued $12 billion in farm [00:25:48] relief. We gave them far because you [00:25:50] were screwed by other countries. I said, [00:25:53] "How much is the number to our great [00:25:55] secretary of agriculture, Brooke [00:25:57] Rollins? He's doing a great job. [00:25:59] [cheering] I said, "Broo, what's the [00:26:01] number?" [applause] [00:26:02] And she said, "$12 billion." And I wrote [00:26:05] a check for $12 billion because we have [00:26:07] so much money from the tariffs coming [00:26:09] in. So, you couldn't have done that [00:26:11] before. We're a rich country now. I hope [00:26:13] we win that Supreme Court case. You [00:26:14] know, we have people that are China [00:26:17] oriented. There people from literally [00:26:20] that very China oriented and foreign [00:26:22] country oriented trying to stop that. [00:26:25] But we'll get it done one way or the [00:26:26] other. We're going to do it. If we have [00:26:28] to do it a different way, we'll do it. [00:26:31] [applause] [00:26:32] But we're taking in hundreds of billions [00:26:34] of dollars. We're We're doing amazing. [00:26:36] Nobody can even believe it. Foreign [00:26:38] countries cannot believe what's [00:26:39] happened. They're studying us, but it [00:26:42] won't work. But I'm also working hard to [00:26:44] expand your markets domestically. And in [00:26:47] the campaign, I promise to support E15 [00:26:51] all year round. [00:26:53] [cheering] [00:26:59] >> [applause] [00:27:00] >> Yes. Yes. [00:27:02] >> Should I do it, Kaufman? [cheering] [00:27:04] >> Should I do it? [applause] I did. I [00:27:06] promised. E15 all year round if I get [00:27:09] elected. And uh I want to let you know [00:27:13] and we'll start right now. I was going [00:27:15] to put out a statement a week ago. I [00:27:16] said, "Hold it. I'm coming to IOWA TO [00:27:19] MAKE A SPEECH. I'M NOT GOING TO PUT OUT [00:27:20] A TRUTH. I'm not going to put I want to [00:27:22] be there in person to tell them the [00:27:27] people of Iowa to know that I am [00:27:30] trusting Speaker Mike Johnson who's [00:27:32] great and leader John Thun who's great. [00:27:35] That's House and Senate to find a deal [00:27:38] that works. We've got it for farmers, [00:27:41] consumers, and refiners including small [00:27:43] and midsize refiners. In other words, to [00:27:46] get E15 approved and they're working on [00:27:49] it. They're very close to getting it [00:27:50] done. So, I just wanted to let you know [00:27:52] that [cheering] [00:27:56] [applause] [00:28:00] and China will be sending me a bill very [00:28:02] shortly supporting yearround E15 to my [00:28:05] desk very quickly and I will sign it [00:28:08] without delay. Okay, [applause] [00:28:13] I hope you remember us for the midterms. [00:28:16] You know, the worst thing about the [00:28:17] midterms is the fact that no matter what [00:28:20] happens, the people that win the [00:28:22] presidency, you win the even if you're a [00:28:24] good president. We I think we had the [00:28:25] best first year of any president ever, [00:28:27] maybe they say. [cheering] But even if [00:28:30] you're having a great It's like in the [00:28:34] last 50 years, they've won it twice. Can [00:28:37] you believe it? Something happens is a [00:28:38] screw turns with the voters. So even if [00:28:42] it's a Democrat or Republican, whoever [00:28:44] wins the presidency has a hard time with [00:28:46] the midterm. If we lose the midterms, [00:28:49] you'll lose so many of the things that [00:28:51] we're talking about, so many of the [00:28:53] assets that we're talking about, so many [00:28:54] of the tax cuts that we're talking [00:28:56] about, and it would lead to very bad [00:28:59] things. We got to win the midterms. I [00:29:00] mean, I'm here because I love Iowa, but [00:29:02] I'm here because we're starting the [00:29:03] campaign to win the midterms. We got to [00:29:05] win the midterms. [00:29:06] [cheering and applause] [00:29:07] >> That means Senate and it means House. [00:29:10] >> [applause] [00:29:12] >> got to win them. It's crazy, you know. [00:29:14] You think it would be like a 50/50 deal [00:29:17] or something. It's like for some reason, [00:29:19] and this is Democrat, too. Democrat wins [00:29:21] a presidency, for some reason, they lose [00:29:23] the midterms. Now, maybe they don't [00:29:25] campaign as hard because they have camp. [00:29:27] I don't know, but I campaign hard. We [00:29:30] got to We got to win the midterms. So, [00:29:31] remember that. You got to get out and [00:29:33] you got to vote. The midterms are very [00:29:35] important. We're going to we're going to [00:29:37] really work hard on winning the [00:29:38] midterms. We have great candidates. Uh [00:29:41] again, Senate and House, we have great [00:29:44] candidates. We got to win them. And we [00:29:45] have candidates that rule with common [00:29:47] sense, not this craziness. You know, [00:29:49] we're not going to be supporting [00:29:51] transgender for all men, [00:29:54] [cheering and screaming] men and women [00:29:55] sports, [00:29:56] [applause] [00:29:58] open borders, [00:30:02] open borders. [applause] The worst is [00:30:05] open borders because you know the the I [00:30:07] take care of things and you know [00:30:09] inflation I had it beat very quickly and [00:30:11] all but this open border thing you know [00:30:13] it's a lot of work taking criminals in [00:30:16] that they allowed into our country where [00:30:18] the jails are opened up remember the [00:30:20] jails the prisons all over from all over [00:30:23] the world they're opened up the Congo [00:30:25] all over South America Venezuela they [00:30:27] opened up their jails we got to get them [00:30:30] out I mean it's it's really really we [00:30:32] can never forget what that group of [00:30:35] morons did to this country. We can never [00:30:39] forget. And we've got to win the [00:30:41] midterms. That's why we've got to win [00:30:42] the midterms. [applause] [00:30:45] As we bring trillions of dollars pouring [00:30:47] into our country from overseas, we're [00:30:49] also making America affordable again. A [00:30:51] problem caused totally by the crooked [00:30:54] Joe Biden administration. I mean, you [00:30:56] know, I inherited this problem. They say [00:30:58] prices are too high. THEY I JUST TOOK [00:31:00] OVER. They said, I'll never forget, I [00:31:03] come here, I'm in three days, I have a [00:31:05] news conference three days INTO MY [00:31:06] ADMINISTRATION. WHAT ABOUT THE PRICE OF [00:31:08] EGGS? THEY'VE GONE UP LIKE FIVE TIMES [00:31:10] MORE. I said, I just got here. I didn't [00:31:13] know about it. I'm sorry. And we got [00:31:15] eggs down very quickly. Remember? But I [00:31:17] I was standing there. I'm so happy. I [00:31:20] just want them. I thought the press was [00:31:22] going to be so nice. And some lunatic [00:31:24] right there, actually. WHAT ABOUT THE [00:31:27] PRICE OF EGGS? EGGS HAVE GONE UP. I [00:31:29] said, "Hell, tell me. Give me a little [00:31:32] because I don't know. I just got here. [00:31:34] I'm sorry, but I fixed it now. I fixed [00:31:36] it pretty much all, but it's going to go [00:31:38] down even further." [applause] [00:31:40] No, BUT THEY THEY CAUSED THE PROBLEM. [00:31:44] And then they came up, you know, it's a [00:31:46] word that they came up with, [00:31:47] affordability. Every time you hear the [00:31:49] word, remember they're the ones that [00:31:50] caused the problem. And uh the first [00:31:54] time you heard about it was like a few [00:31:56] months ago. this election is all about [00:31:58] affordability. Well, they're the ones [00:32:00] that caused the problem, but nobody [00:32:02] knows that. You know, people forget. So, [00:32:05] they say, "Oh, affordability. Let's vote [00:32:07] for the Democrats." It's no [00:32:09] affordability. They caused a tremendous [00:32:12] price increases. It was caused by the [00:32:14] worst inflation we've ever had. And they [00:32:17] come up with this word affordability. [00:32:19] And I saw it even re although you're not [00:32:21] hearing it so much anymore. You know [00:32:22] why? Because the prices are coming down [00:32:24] so much. They don't want it to be an [00:32:26] election based on lower prices. But [00:32:28] we're bringing down the lower I like [00:32:30] that term better. It's a lower prices. [00:32:31] We're bringing them down. But we [00:32:33] inherited the highest prices in the [00:32:36] history of our country and we've rapidly [00:32:38] brought them down. And that's what we [00:32:39] want to do. [applause and cheering] [00:32:45] Did you ever see them where they're [00:32:46] being interviewed? This will be an [00:32:49] election on affordability. [00:32:52] And I say that but they never talk about [00:32:54] after that's all they say. They just say [00:32:56] affordability [00:32:58] but they never do anything Mr. Chairman. [00:33:00] Right. They never say they don't talk [00:33:01] about what do they mean. So everyone [00:33:03] says you know look you are doing a lot [00:33:05] of things. You're not into politics that [00:33:07] much. Although you like it. You like [00:33:08] Trump but you're not into politics but [00:33:11] you're not going to go back and examine. [00:33:12] All you know is oh therefore I guess [00:33:15] that means they did a good job. They [00:33:18] almost destroyed our country. They were [00:33:21] pricing you out when gasoline's at $4.50 [00:33:24] and now it's at $1. I was told, you [00:33:27] know, I was saying $1.99 today in Iowa. [00:33:30] I was told that it was $1.85 [00:33:33] hit a gallon in Iowa. [cheering] [00:33:35] [applause] [00:33:36] And you know, that's like a massive tax [00:33:39] cut. That's actually like a massive tax [00:33:41] cut. [applause] So the Biden nightmare [00:33:43] cost a typical American family $34,000 [00:33:47] in four years. BUT AFTER ONE YEAR OF [00:33:49] TRUMP, real wages are already up more [00:33:52] than $2,000. Think of it. That's a [00:33:55] $5,000 swing much faster. Wages have [00:33:58] gone up much, much faster. Think of this [00:34:01] than inflation with him. It was just the [00:34:03] opposite. Wages in the United States in [00:34:06] the last year have gone up. And remember [00:34:08] the first part of the year, actually you [00:34:10] could say almost the first year, I was [00:34:12] fixing the country from the horror show [00:34:14] that we inherited. Grocery prices, [00:34:17] airfares, hotels, car payments, and rent [00:34:20] prices have all come down. And they've [00:34:22] come down very fast. And thanks to our [00:34:24] tax cuts, millions of Americans will [00:34:27] soon receive record setting tax refunds, [00:34:30] an average of more than $1,000. [00:34:33] Think of that. $1,000 [00:34:36] compared to last year. $1,000 just in [00:34:39] what you're going to save with some of [00:34:40] the tax cuts. And that number goes up [00:34:44] exponentially over the course of four [00:34:47] years. So it's I mean it's amazing. It's [00:34:49] called the great big beautiful bill. [00:34:52] [applause] [00:34:57] You know one other thing that that they [00:34:58] get you get that's I thought was so [00:35:01] great I came up with it. You know very [00:35:03] rich people get deductions. Middle [00:35:05] income people don't get deductions. It's [00:35:07] in a bad day. I said, "Why is it that [00:35:10] when a rich person buys something, they [00:35:12] get a deduction on interest, but when [00:35:13] somebody that's working like hell, they [00:35:16] don't get if they want to buy a car." [00:35:18] And I said, "Why can't somebody buying a [00:35:20] car in America?" Only if it's made in [00:35:22] America. If it's made in some other [00:35:24] country, we have no interest. So, I got [00:35:26] it approved in the great big beautiful [00:35:28] bill. You get a full tax deduction [00:35:30] against your your income tax. You get a [00:35:33] full tax deduction. Think of it. If you [00:35:36] purchase a car in America, if you borrow [00:35:38] money, the interest that you're paying [00:35:40] on that borrowed money is a full [00:35:42] deduction for your tax purposes. And [00:35:45] that's a tremendous deal. [applause] [00:35:48] And and you know what? It's also great [00:35:50] for the car companies because the car [00:35:51] company's going to be making a lot more [00:35:53] cars that nobody they couldn't believe [00:35:55] it. And I got it passed. So just [00:35:57] remember me as you take those [00:35:58] deductions, please. The king of [00:36:01] deductions. [00:36:02] No, but it was always unfair the way a [00:36:04] lot of people the way a lot of people [00:36:07] got treated. You take that deduction. [00:36:08] One of those who will be seeing a big [00:36:10] benefit thanks to our tax cuts is Erica [00:36:14] Pearl. Where's Erica? Is she here? [00:36:16] Erica, where is Erica? [00:36:19] >> Right here. Right over here. [00:36:20] >> Where is she? Oh, she's so beautiful. [00:36:23] I'M NOT ALLOWED TO SAY that anymore. [00:36:26] If I say a woman is beautiful, that's [00:36:28] the end of your political career, you [00:36:30] know. But that she is beautiful. How are [00:36:32] you? Congratulations. [00:36:34] What a good story. She's the general [00:36:37] manager at Whiskey River Bar in [00:36:41] [applause] Ankenany, Iowa, [cheering] [00:36:45] >> which as you know, I visited strongly a [00:36:47] couple of times in the campaign. And [00:36:49] Erica's been able to hire many new [00:36:51] employees. And they're each going to be [00:36:54] taken home thousands and thousands of [00:36:56] dollars extra because of the no tax on [00:36:59] tips. And she's got a lot more people [00:37:01] wanting to work for her, too, because of [00:37:02] that. No tax on tips. That's just one of [00:37:05] many. How's that working out, Erica? [00:37:07] Good. You want to come up and say a few [00:37:09] words? Come on up, Erica. You want to [00:37:11] come on up? [applause] [00:37:15] And while she's coming up, also with us [00:37:17] is Judy Waldron from Davenport. Judy [00:37:21] works part-time as a bartender and her [00:37:23] husband Chris is an electrician who [00:37:25] works hours on overtime each week. Their [00:37:28] family is going to save thousands of [00:37:31] dollars on no tax on overtime and no tax [00:37:35] on tips, which they'll use to prepare [00:37:38] for retirement. And I want to thank you, [00:37:40] Judy. Where's Judy? Where's [00:37:43] [applause] [00:37:43] >> Come here. Where's Judy? COME ON UP, [00:37:45] JUDY. GET UP HERE. [00:37:48] Come on up. [applause] [00:37:51] They're totally unprepared for this, but [00:37:53] what the hell, right? Say a few words. [00:37:55] [cheering] Thank you. Thank you. [00:37:57] >> Thank you. [applause] Thank you, [00:37:58] President Trump. No tax on tips is huge [00:38:01] for everyone in the service industry. [00:38:03] Thank you very much. [00:38:04] >> Thank you very much. Congratulations. [00:38:05] [applause] [00:38:11] I would just like to say the same thing. [00:38:13] Thank you very much. We appreciate it. [00:38:15] >> Thank you very much, Andy. Good luck. [00:38:17] [applause] [00:38:19] Thank you. [00:38:25] >> I REFUSE TO SAY THEY'RE BEAUTIFUL. I [00:38:27] REFUSE. [applause] [00:38:29] But they're beautiful. [00:38:31] Do all people look like that in Iowa? I [00:38:33] don't think so. [cheering] [00:38:36] >> Thank you both. Congratulations to [00:38:38] great. That's great. We're not supposed [00:38:41] to come up, but I looked at both of them [00:38:43] and I said, "Get up here." We're also [00:38:46] pleased to be joined by Governor Kim [00:38:48] Reynolds. Kim, thank you. Thank [00:38:50] [cheering] you. [00:38:52] Thank you, Kim. [00:38:54] Great. [applause] [00:38:57] A man who's become a real star, Treasury [00:39:01] Secretary Scott Bessett.

He knows his [00:39:14] business [00:39:16] and he's a big cutter. He cuts He cuts a [00:39:19] lot of things. Small business [00:39:21] administrator. Another real star. Kelly [00:39:23] Laughler.

[00:39:53] And uh I want to tell you that they're [00:39:55] all great and they're all running and [00:39:57] they should be in good shape, but you [00:39:58] got to get out and vote. Got to get out [00:40:00] and vote. [00:40:01] Iowa Attorney General Brena Bird. [00:40:04] Where's Brena? Hi, Brena. [00:40:08] [applause] [00:40:09] Boy, she was early to endorse me. [00:40:12] [cheering] She was so early. We [00:40:14] appreciate it. We'll never forget that. [00:40:15] That was great. Thanks a lot, Brener. [00:40:17] And you're doing well. I hear you're [00:40:19] doing great, right? Thank you. She's [00:40:21] running again. You got to vote for her. [00:40:23] [cheering] State House Majority Leader [00:40:26] Bobby Kaufman. Bobby, [00:40:29] [applause] [00:40:29] >> guys, he got [cheering] a you got a [00:40:32] mover there. Thank you, Bobby. Great [00:40:34] job. Great family. [applause] [00:40:37] Former Senate, state senate president [00:40:40] leader. Now, I have to tell you about [00:40:41] this guy. He endorsed me. The first [00:40:44] person in the entire United States of [00:40:46] America, it was a year before I even [00:40:49] knew I was running. He endorsed me. He [00:40:51] endorsed me because he thought I would [00:40:52] be good. I wasn't even thinking about [00:40:54] running. He was so early. He was the [00:40:57] first person in the United States before [00:41:00] my wife, before my kids, [00:41:05] >> state senate president. He's a Marbor [00:41:07] man. He looks like the Brad Z. Where's [00:41:10] Brad? [cheering] [00:41:12] Where are you, Brad? Come on up here. [00:41:14] Get up here, Brad. [cheering] [00:41:19] and state representatives Heather Hora, [00:41:22] Derek Wolf, Brooke Bowden, and many [00:41:24] other wonderful members of the Iowa [00:41:27] State House. I want to thank you all for [00:41:28] being here. Brad, you got to say, look [00:41:30] at this guy. Can you talk, Brad? [00:41:32] [applause] [00:41:37] [applause] [00:41:38] Well, it's an honor to be here. And you [00:41:42] know, my wife is a Fox News junkie and [00:41:44] she loves Laura Ingram. And I tell her, [00:41:47] I said, "Enjoy every second because you [00:41:51] are the goat." Promises made, promises [00:41:55] kept. [cheering] Thank you. [00:41:58] [applause] Great job. Thank you. [00:42:03] He's the Marro man, right? He could do [00:42:05] that. Do whatever he wants. [applause] [00:42:08] He was so early. I said, "Who the hell [00:42:10] is that guy in Iowa that keeps endorsing [00:42:12] me?" [00:42:13] Thank you, Brad. We won't forget. [00:42:16] The Trump administration has done more [00:42:18] in 12 months than most administrations [00:42:20] achieve in four years or eight years. [00:42:22] And we've done a lot. [00:42:24] >> I've recently introduced my plan to [00:42:27] repair the damage of the unaffordable [00:42:29] care act. The worst disaster which now [00:42:33] costs many families more than a [00:42:35] mortgage. If you look, it's number came [00:42:37] out bigger cost than a mortgage and it's [00:42:39] bad healthcare. Obamacare was created to [00:42:42] make insurance companies rich with [00:42:44] government subsidies. I want all that [00:42:46] money that gets paid to the insurance [00:42:48] companies to get paid directly to the [00:42:50] people. That's all I want. [00:42:52] [applause and cheering] [00:42:55] So that you can buy better health care [00:42:57] at a lower cost. The problem is the [00:43:00] Democrats don't want to do that because [00:43:02] they are owned by the insurance [00:43:03] companies. So they say, "Oh, we don't [00:43:05] want to do that. I want the money to be [00:43:07] paid to the people to go out and buy [00:43:10] their own healthcare. You'll buy much [00:43:12] better healthcare. You have a lot of [00:43:13] money left over. [applause] [00:43:17] And I'm also making it a lot easier [00:43:20] [applause] to buy a thing called the [00:43:22] house, the American dream. Last week, I [00:43:24] signed an executive order to ban Wall [00:43:26] Street and large institutional investors [00:43:29] from buying up all the single family [00:43:31] homes in America [cheering] [00:43:35] because we don't want America to become [00:43:37] a nation of renters and that's what they [00:43:39] force happen. I mean, you have these [00:43:40] companies, they own 5,000 houses, [00:43:43] 20,000, one has hundreds of thousands of [00:43:46] houses. We don't want that. We want [00:43:48] people to be able to buy houses. At the [00:43:51] same time, I want to keep the value of [00:43:54] the house very high of those people who [00:43:58] already own a house. We're not [00:43:59] forgetting about them because they don't [00:44:02] necessarily match those two things. You [00:44:04] know, we get the prices down. Well, what [00:44:05] does that do? Very important to me, more [00:44:09] important to me is, you know, people [00:44:11] have become rich by owning their home. [00:44:13] We're going to keep them nice and rich. [00:44:14] Is that okay? You know, nobody I'll bet [00:44:16] you've never heard that before, right? [00:44:18] [applause] But people own a home and for [00:44:20] the first time their home it's a certain [00:44:22] we're not going to bring that price [00:44:23] down. I want to say let them be rich. [00:44:26] But we're strengthening Fanny May and [00:44:27] Freddy Mack that you've heard about. And [00:44:29] in the last 12 months those institutions [00:44:31] have supported over 22,000 Iowa families [00:44:34] in purchasing or refinancing and saved [00:44:38] over 3,000 Iowa families from losing [00:44:41] their homes. We've come out and really [00:44:44] helped a lot of people keep your home. [00:44:47] And despite a bad Fed chairman, a guy [00:44:49] that has no, we call him too late. He's [00:44:51] too late. Jerome, too late, pal. He's [00:44:54] too late. He wasn't too late before the [00:44:57] Democrats on the election. Then he was [00:44:59] too early. But he wants to keep rates as [00:45:02] high as possible. Despite that, we've [00:45:03] driven rates down. You know, when you're [00:45:05] really good, you can get them down [00:45:06] despite everything because ultimately it [00:45:09] just sort of follows nature. Mortgage [00:45:11] interest rates are now at the lowest [00:45:13] level in three years and new mortgage [00:45:15] applications are up 30%. By the way, [00:45:17] well, we have a great Fed chairman. I [00:45:19] think we're going to have one. I'll [00:45:20] announce it pretty soon. Uh you'll see [00:45:22] rates come down a lot. And refinancings [00:45:25] are up 100% compared to the end of the [00:45:28] Biden term. Up 100%. [applause] [00:45:32] We're also working tirelessly to bring [00:45:34] back a thing called law and order. You [00:45:38] know, there was a time [cheering] [00:45:41] >> [applause] [00:45:44] >> So, there was a time that you weren't [00:45:47] allowed to use the words law and order. [00:45:50] >> I like that guy. [00:45:53] You weren't allowed to use the term law [00:45:56] and order. You weren't allowed to use [00:45:57] the term Christmas. Merry Christmas, [00:45:59] everybody. Right? Remember that 2016? I [00:46:02] ran on we're going to bring back [00:46:04] Christmas. We did. Now, they're afraid [00:46:05] to suggest it, but we brought that back. [00:46:07] But law and order, we need law and [00:46:09] order. And we have the lowest crime rate [00:46:12] now in the history of our country. [00:46:13] That's good. But we'll do [00:46:14] [applause and cheering] even better. [00:46:17] And as everyone is aware, we've totally [00:46:19] and completely closed the southern [00:46:21] border with little fanfare, but [00:46:23] tremendous success with the southern [00:46:25] border is closed. Nobody's coming in. [00:46:27] [applause] [00:46:32] That's right. Nobody is able to come [00:46:35] into our country except for those that [00:46:37] come in legally. We want to have people [00:46:38] come in legally. We need people to come [00:46:40] in legally, but they have to show that [00:46:42] they can love our country, not hate our [00:46:43] country. [applause] [00:46:45] They have to show that they're not going [00:46:47] to blow up our shopping centers, blow up [00:46:49] our farms, kill people. They're coming [00:46:52] in legally, but they uh they cannot come [00:46:54] in unless they come in legally into our [00:46:57] country. And we're letting some great [00:46:59] people come in. They have to show that [00:47:00] they can love our country. I have to be [00:47:02] proud. Not like Ilhan Omar. Did you see [00:47:06] what [00:47:08] did you see that wise guy? You know, she [00:47:10] was always talking about the [00:47:11] constitution provides me with the [00:47:13] following. You know, the constitution [00:47:16] she comes from a country that's a [00:47:18] disaster. It's a probably it's [00:47:19] considered I think the word it's not [00:47:21] even a country. Okay? It barely has a [00:47:23] government. I don't think it does. They [00:47:25] go to one thing pirates. But they don't [00:47:28] do that anymore. You know why? because [00:47:30] they get the same treatment from us as [00:47:32] the drug dealers get. Boom. Boom. Boom. [00:47:35] [cheering] [00:47:38] [applause] [00:47:43] I DON'T CARE WHAT SHIP THEY'RE [00:47:44] ATTACKING. When they attack, when we see [00:47:47] them going in ping, that's the end of [00:47:48] that. [00:47:51] >> It's amazing. You know, I don't know if [00:47:52] you know, drugs coming in by water is [00:47:55] down 97%. [00:47:58] [cheering] [00:47:59] >> [applause] [00:48:03] >> And we're trying to find out who the [00:48:05] other 3% is because we consider them the [00:48:08] bravest people in the world. Who the [00:48:12] hell are the 3%. [00:48:14] But it's down 97% [00:48:16] and now we're taking them down on the [00:48:18] land. The land is much easier than the [00:48:19] sea. You had to do the sea first, but [00:48:21] the sea is done. We haven't exactly [00:48:23] helped the luxury fishing business, I [00:48:26] would say. Would you like to go fishing? [00:48:29] No, thank you. I'd rather Let's go deep [00:48:31] sea fishing today. Let's go on another [00:48:33] boat deep sea fishing. Sorry about that. [00:48:36] >> But was down 97%. We've done a job. I'll [00:48:39] tell you, we've made our country [00:48:40] respected again. [00:48:43] [cheering] [00:48:44] [applause] [00:48:46] The greatest military. We have the [00:48:48] greatest military in the world. You [00:48:49] know, I rebuilt our military in our [00:48:51] first term and we have the greatest [00:48:53] military in the world. So you read much [00:48:55] about Minnesota where unbeknownst to the [00:48:58] public we have brought down crime very [00:49:00] substantially in Minnesota. We've taken [00:49:02] out thousands of hard criminals, [00:49:04] hardened, vicious, horrible criminals. [00:49:07] You don't read about [applause] [00:49:11] you don't read about things like [00:49:12] Washington DC where there is virtually [00:49:16] no crime and it was horrible a year and [00:49:18] a half ago. Memphis, Tennessee which was [00:49:20] a real disaster and now it's down. Crime [00:49:23] has dropped by 78% in the last two [00:49:25] months. New Orleans, Louisiana. I was [00:49:28] asked by the governor of Louisiana to [00:49:30] help them with New Orleans. It was a [00:49:32] disaster. And crime is down 54% in about [00:49:35] 3 weeks. You don't read about that. [00:49:38] [applause] [00:49:39] And we've done all of this by taking [00:49:42] thousands of criminals out of these [00:49:43] states. We took over 2,000 people out of [00:49:46] Washington DC. These were criminals. You [00:49:48] know if you remember about 2% of the [00:49:51] population it's a very simple business [00:49:54] 2% of the population causes 90% of the [00:49:59] crime. So when you start decimating that [00:50:01] 2% boom that's why we have the c it's an [00:50:05] amazing number would you think these [00:50:07] people you know it's just crime over and [00:50:09] over and over 2% creates 90% of the [00:50:13] crime. Isn't that amazing? It's not that [00:50:15] complicated is it? In one year, we've [00:50:17] achieved the largest drop in the murder [00:50:19] rate in the history of our country. Drug [00:50:21] overdose deaths are down by 21%. [00:50:24] The largest drop ever recorded. We got [00:50:27] to do better than that. [applause] [00:50:31] And I've designated the drug cartels as [00:50:34] foreign terrorist organizations. [00:50:36] Big [applause and cheering] deal. [00:50:40] And despite the strong efforts of the [00:50:44] fake news media, we are starting to see [00:50:46] the historic success reflected in [00:50:48] tremendous polls. We have great polls. [00:50:51] In last week's Rasmusen poll, we're [00:50:53] leading among Hispanic voters. We're [00:50:55] leading by a lot. Nobody's ever seen a [00:50:57] Republican lead among Hispanic voters. [00:50:59] You know, Hispanic voters don't want [00:51:01] crime. People don't realize that. [00:51:03] Hispanic voters want strong borders [00:51:06] [applause] [00:51:07] because they know what's coming in and [00:51:08] they don't want them. They're great. [00:51:10] They've been great. We did so great in [00:51:12] the election with Hispanic voters. We [00:51:14] did so great with black men. We did so [00:51:17] great with white everything. [applause] [00:51:20] In yesterday's RMG poll, a clear [00:51:23] majority of Americans support our [00:51:25] deportation policies by a margin of 10%. [00:51:28] Now, I don't know why 10% because I [00:51:30] don't think it's even I mean, wouldn't [00:51:32] you say like 100%. Who who the hell [00:51:35] would be against? Maybe somebody that [00:51:37] hates our country. In a recent Harvard [00:51:38] Harris poll found that 80% of Americans [00:51:41] support our unprecedented operation to [00:51:44] deport criminal aliens. In other words, [00:51:46] 80% that's more like it of the people [00:51:50] support our operation to move remove [00:51:54] dangerous bad people out of our country. [00:51:57] [cheering] [00:51:58] [applause] [00:52:04] And in a Reuters poll that just came [00:52:07] out, Republicans are leading on the [00:52:09] economy by a lot and leading on [00:52:11] immigration by a lot. and the crime [00:52:13] they're leading by a real lot by almost [00:52:15] I guess almost 20 points and in real [00:52:18] clear politics average net approval the [00:52:21] Republican party is more than 10 points [00:52:23] more popular than Democrats and I don't [00:52:25] even understand that how can you 10 [00:52:27] points is considered a lot but to me I [00:52:30] mean how is it 10 points when we've done [00:52:32] all these things they've done only [00:52:35] destroying our country they are [00:52:37] destroying they would destroy I'm [00:52:39] telling you if Kamala won or any of [00:52:42] them. I think Gavin Newsome is worse [00:52:45] because I mean he's destroyed [00:52:46] California. If they won, if they win, [00:52:49] that group, that ideology wins, you will [00:52:53] be Venezuela on steroids. It's and I've [00:52:55] said it for years. And you know what? [00:52:58] They will destroy our country. The [00:53:00] country would have been destroyed [00:53:01] already. We're fully rebuilding the US [00:53:03] military with more than $1 trillion [00:53:06] we're spending on the military. [00:53:08] [applause] [00:53:12] And in June, we obliterated Iran's [00:53:15] nuclear capacity in Operation Midnight [00:53:18] Hammer. You saw that [00:53:20] [applause and cheering] [00:53:22] people have been waiting for 22 years to [00:53:25] do that. And we were right at the end. [00:53:27] They were about a month away from having [00:53:28] a nuclear weapon. We had to do it. And [00:53:31] just And by the way, there's another [00:53:33] beautiful armada floating beautifully [00:53:36] toward Iran right now. [00:53:38] So, we'll [cheering] see. [00:53:41] >> I hope I hope they make a deal. I hope [00:53:44] they make a deal. They should have made [00:53:46] a deal the first time they'd have a [00:53:48] country. And just weeks ago in a [00:53:50] spectacular operation in Venezuela, we [00:53:52] brought the outlaw dictator Nicholas [00:53:55] Maduro to face American Joseph [00:53:58] [applause] [00:54:02] in one of the most brilliant, lethal, [00:54:07] quick, they've never seen violent [00:54:11] uh operations ever seen, military [00:54:13] operations ever seen. Nobody was killed. [00:54:17] Not on their side. A lot of people, [00:54:19] unfortunately, I have to say a lot. We [00:54:22] went into a very big, powerful military [00:54:25] base with a group of unbelievable, [00:54:28] talented, patriotic people that love our [00:54:30] country. You couldn't hold them back. [00:54:33] [applause and cheering] [00:54:36] You know, the weather was off for three [00:54:38] nights. It was not good. So, I delayed [00:54:40] it. I delayed it. I delayed it. The next [00:54:43] night, it was okay, but not great. I [00:54:44] said, "General, let's Sir, they're ready [00:54:46] to go. Sir, they're okay. I said, "But [00:54:49] the weather's a little bad." I said, [00:54:50] "Sir, they're ready to go." I said, "God [00:54:54] bless you, General." And boy, did they [00:54:56] do a job. [applause] [00:55:02] Joe Biden and his allies, in conclusion, [00:55:05] [applause] [00:55:05] in Congress, did everything they could [00:55:08] to destroy our country, but they failed. [00:55:10] And today, after just one year since my [00:55:13] second inauguration, you know, we have a [00:55:15] new hat. It's called America is Back. [00:55:19] America is [cheering] Back. [applause] [00:55:22] Our border is secure. Our spirit is [00:55:25] restored. Inflation is stopped. Incomes [00:55:28] are up. Prices are down. Our economy is [00:55:32] roaring. Our workers are thriving. And [00:55:34] our country is winning again. Winning [00:55:36] like never before. We've never had a [00:55:38] period of time like this. You've never [00:55:39] had a period of time. [00:55:41] [applause and cheering] [00:55:46] I just left a great group of people from [00:55:48] Iowa and half of them were crying as [00:55:50] they talked to me. I don't think they're [00:55:51] crying because I'm doing a bad job. You [00:55:53] know, in theory you cry if you do a bad [00:55:55] They were crying because I've done a [00:55:56] good job, sir. They said, "Sir, you've [00:55:59] brought our country back, crying, [00:56:02] crying." One woman was fantastic. She [00:56:06] grabbed me and she put her head right [00:56:07] there and her tears are pouring all over [00:56:10] my beautiful suit. I figured I get it. [00:56:13] And I checked it out and there was a lot [00:56:14] of makeup all over. I said, "What the [00:56:16] hell am I going to do? I got [00:56:18] get myself in trouble." [laughter] [00:56:22] No, but she was crying. And I said, [00:56:23] "Don't cry. Be happy. Be happy." With [00:56:26] the help of the incredible people of [00:56:28] Iowa, we're repairing four long years of [00:56:32] disaster and decline, and we're [00:56:34] beginning what will be known as the [00:56:35] greatest years in the history of our [00:56:37] country. I believe that, too. [00:56:39] [applause and cheering] [00:56:43] We are entering a period that will be [00:56:46] called the golden age of America. That's [00:56:49] what's happening. [00:56:51] [applause and cheering] So together with [00:56:53] all of you and you were with me from the [00:56:55] beginning all three times we won by a [00:56:57] lot. I don't know if you remember but [00:56:59] before I got involved this was really a [00:57:01] Democrat state. You know that I don't [00:57:02] want to bring it up. And then I came [00:57:04] along and it wasn't a Democrat very long [00:57:07] and our great chairman did such a good [00:57:10] job. Boy, oh boy. Oh boy. You could do [00:57:12] anything. I've offered him come to [00:57:14] Washington. [applause] [00:57:16] Come to Washington. Take any position. [00:57:18] But he likes He just doesn't want to [00:57:20] leave. I I think he just want to stay in [00:57:22] Iowa. I don't blame you. But you are [00:57:25] fantastic. But we've won [applause] all [00:57:28] three times by a lot. But this used [00:57:31] until we came along. This used to be a [00:57:33] Democrat state and then we we turned it. [00:57:35] Barack Hussein Obama. You have you heard [00:57:37] of him? [00:57:39] >> He won both times. Didn't he win both? [00:57:41] He won twice, you know. Barack Hussein [00:57:43] Obama, wonderful president. Really [00:57:45] brought people together, didn't he? [00:57:48] But Barack Obama won twice, you know, [00:57:52] and so everyone said, "Well, Iowa, you [00:57:54] know, they had this down as not winnable [00:57:56] and we won in a landslide. Three times [00:57:59] we won in a landslide. So [00:58:00] [applause and cheering] [00:58:01] Together [00:58:05] with all of you, the citizens from all [00:58:08] across this incredible, beautiful land, [00:58:11] we will make America powerful again. Oh, [00:58:13] we've done it. We will make America [00:58:16] wealthy again. We will make America [00:58:20] healthy again. That's happening. [00:58:22] [cheering] We will make America strong [00:58:25] again. We will make America proud again. [00:58:28] WE WILL MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN. And [00:58:32] most importantly, we will make America [00:58:36] great again. Thank you, Iowa. Thank you. [00:58:40] Thank you.
