Trump we will cut protect our second amendment, defend religious liberty and make sure more products are stocked with that beautiful phrase made in the usa. Next year will be the greatest history ofar in the our country. Under my leadership, our economy grew at the fastest rate ever recorded. 11. 4 millionrecord jobs in the last five months while foreign nations are in a freefall we are creating the worlds greatest economic powerhouse. A recent gallup poll just came out and found out 56 of americans say they are better off today than they were four years ago under obama into andpy Joe Biden ObamaSleepy Joe Biden. It is really windy appear. Windy up here. Have aing you do not president that needs teleprompters. These things are blowing all over the place. We went to iowa. In iowa while we had the coldest, windiest, but it was warm because the people were warm and we will win iowa. Cold stopsuple today. One was is so cold we talked said theygees, we would want to go back immediately. If biden and harris get in, the economy will collapse. Our country will go into at least a freefall, but probably a depression. Taxes,nt to raise your take away your second amendment, a lot of things i dont think you can stand for. Fracking does not pertain so much to it. It pertains to you in a different way than it does for pennsylvania. Your energy costs will go through the roof. That will be bad for this incredible state. They want to massively increase regulations, send your jobs overseas, destroy the suburbs. That rid of the regulation would have destroyed the suburbs. Back worsebring it than ever before. It terminate religious liberty, eliminate school choice, outlaw private health care and shred your second amendment, and indoctrinate your children with antiamerican lies. Abolish u. S. Ed to oil, u. S. Fracking, industry. Look at what he is talking about doing. It is not him. He is shot. It is the radical left. Energy prices will explode and that will cripple our country. Energyow we are independent. What we have going we have never had before. Band will send every state from michigan to will sendenergy ban every state from chic again to pennsylvania from michigan to pennsylvania. They should never have allowed it. It came to us and europe and the rest of the world and we are never going to forget. We are building our economy back up and it is going in av but it v but it isin a really a super v. Agenda is a war on our workers and police. Biden says he is running as a proud democrat. I am running as a proud american. [applause] usa, usa, usa thank you. thank you very much. We hadsay this something incredible happened four years ago. This is more important and there is more energy. The crowds are bigger, everything is hotter. I never thought i would say it because that was an incredible period of time. This is the most important election perhaps in the history of our country. Get out and vote. Sleepy joe biden is a diehard globalist who spent 47 years outsourcing your jobs, and sacrificing american blood into treasure in ridiculous endless wars into they are all coming ridiculousreasure in they are alland coming back. Most was one of the ridiculous trade deals. Promises made, promises kept, we did it all. Your factories into jobs to china and other places in foreign lands, raking in millions of dollars for himself. His son was like a human vacuum cleaner. Where are you going today dan . Ukraine. I will go to ukraine. To the mayor of moscows wife gave part. Heres the scary the Fake News Media into there is a lot of it back there, the fake news do not want to talk about it. They do not want to talk about it. Put ith will refuse to on. They will terminate the New York Post if they put it up. The New York Post, i have to give them a lot of credit. They endorsed me. I got endorsed it today by the pittsburgh gazette and it has not happened where they report they endorsed a republican. They have not done it in decades. Thank you, pittsburgh. We will take it. We got endorsed by a lot of great people and a lot of newspapers are endorsing us because they know joe biden is not up for this job. Can tell you, kim jongun, they are all very sharp and we cannot have a leader who is not sharp. Joe biden is a corrupt politician who has who is bought and paid for by china. How can you have a guy whos son walks with alien and a half for 10whose son asks million i gear for introductory purposes . Whose son walks with one dollars, w a half asks for 10 million a year for introductory purposes . President who is first. Putting america like a typicalnd washington politician, it is because thankfully i am not a politician. Always play by the rules of washington and the washington establishment, it is because i fight for you and there has never been anyone who fought harder for you. [applause] nice trump i had a very life before doing this. I had a very nice life. You. Much. You very so nice. That is never been said. Has anybody ever heard that . No one has ever heard it and i appreciate it. Did anyone watch the debate . Im sure no one watched it. He said you will have a long, dark winter. I dont think anybody likes biden. Watch bidens tonight on television a said we are going to have long, dark winter. How inspiring is that . We are going to deliver the greatest american come back in history. That is what we are doing. We are way ahead of schedule. This election is a choice between a biden depression and a boom like you have never seen before. It is a choice between a biden lockdown he wants to lock it down, lets lock it down. Governory, tell your to open up north carolina. [applause] time. Trump it is ridiculous. It is ridiculous. He will probably announce it on november 4. They thought our numbers were not be good. They thought by keeping states like pennsylvania, michigan how about her . Her husband rooms free. The thought by keeping him down the numbers yet, we have at 33. 1, that is the highest in our country by double. You have to go back to 1952, and that was half of what we did. Will have a state vaccine a safe vaccine. They hate when i say it, but we are rounding the corner. On top of that, we have vaccines pfizer, johnson johnson, moderna, Great Companies and they are right there. Andill have them launched our military will do it logistically incredible. We will start with our seniors. Thing. Have a great it will speed up the process. It does work here i am. Like to say that the medicine i took, regeneron, i like to say it had no impact on me because i am a perfect physical specimen and i am very young. Take it anyway, right . It is amazing that things we have been able to do in the last six months. If you look at all of what we produce now, we have it is incredible what we are doing and what we are sending to the world, the ventilators. We are sending things no one can believe, treatments that reduc d the fatality by 80 . Got it. Got it and baron he has 14 and he is very tall, very strong. He had it for a matter of minutes. The doctor came up to us and said, im sorry, but barron has tested positive. And i said, for what . Tested positive for what . Its got about 30 different names, but he said, covid. We could call it the china plague, the china virus, but he didnt say it. He said covid. I said, thats too bad. He said, he will be fine. About 14 minutes later, he came back. I said, how is barron doing . He shook it off, he is fine. The young have strong immune systems. Get them back to school, please. We have learned about this horrible plague that was sent to us by china. Our excess mortality rate in america is 40 lower than europe. You keep hearing europe is doing so well. They are not doing so well. And we want them to do well, by the way, and we helped them. We want them to do well. But they are having a very hard time. Joe biden is promising to delay the vaccine and turn america into a prison state. While letting riders rome free while letting rioters roam free. They closed your churches, they closed your schools, but it you want to riot and burn down the stores and have the anarchists out there, thats ok. But you cant go to school, you cant go to church. It is crazy. All democrat run, by the way. All democrat run. You look at portland. Democrat, super liberal democrat. We could fix that situation. We have to be invited in. We fixed seattle because we said, thats enough, we are going in. We dont care, we are going in. So we were going in the next morning. That night they found out about it and they said, we are leaving now. Thank you very much. And we did a great job in minnesota, minneapolis, after you watched that place burning down. A week and a half later, they went in and solved it in about a half an hour. If we had listened to joe biden on allowing travel to come in from china and europe remember he said, he is xenophobic. Now he runs for president and says we should have acted sooner. Months later he did not think we should do it. Hundreds of thousands more people would have died. We saved 2 Million People or more. Do you remember the model . It said 2. 2 Million People would die. Well, we saved 2 Million People by acting quickly. Now biden wants a cruel and very heartless nationwide shut down. It wont affect you because you are already shut down. I dont know what the heck what is going on with your state . Are you ready to open up . I think so. [cheers and applause] people are not going to take it anymore. Look what happened in europe, and the people are revolting. They dont want to do it anymore. They cant do it anymore. We cant have the cure be worse than the problem itself. That was like the first thing i said a long time ago. The biden lockdown will result in countless deaths and wipe out an entire generation of dreams. And we have learned that children with the computers do not do well compared to being in classes, ok . They dont do well. It is not the same. And the parents have to go to work and the problems that are caused with alcohol, drug abuse, we cant let this happen. You cant let it go on. I have a feeling that probably he will say, you know, it is now november 4, the day after the election. We will go back. He should have never done that and they should have never done that. Actually, the states that are doing best, get florida. Look at all these states where they had a spike. And they didnt close down. Look what happened in arizona. Look what happened in texas. We cant let it happen. Europe imposed draconian lockdowns and yet their cases are exploding and their deaths are surging. And their economies are lets face it. They are in ruins. We had the smallest down and the largest up and the largest fast up on the economy by far. The european lockdowns are leading to more suffering, delayed medical care, and financial devastation. A vote for biden is a vote for lockdowns, layoffs, misery, and getting rid of your second amendment. They want to hurt our police, but they want to take away your guns. Very interesting, isnt it . If you want a vaccine to kill the virus, a job to support your family, and freedom to live your life, then go cast your ballot, cast your vote for me. We are going to do it. [cheers and applause] but you dont have to take my we are doing it. Word for it because in certain states that i like a lot, we spend a lot of money for look at that over there. Look at that. You are going to see something right now. You dont have to listen. Please roll the video. Roll it. My problem is i voted for nafta. I am supporting nafta because i think it is a positive thing to do, and i do not pretend to be an expert on International Trade matters. Trade agreements like nafta and permanent trade relations with china would force American Workers to compete against people making pennies an hour as a result of a loss of 160,000 jobs. The president is right that china has been cheating. Clinton didnt do enough about it, george w. Bush didnt do enough about it, barack obama didnt do enough about it. A rising china is a positive development not only for china, but for the United States and the rest of the world. A rising china is a positive development. It is in our selfinterest that china continue to prosper. We want to see china rise. China is a great nation and we should hope for their continued expansion. China is not our enemy. We talk about china like our competitor. We should be helping. China is going to eat our lunch. It is bizarre. They are our competition. They are not bad folks, folks. China is not a problem. Allowing china into the world trade organization, which he supported, extending the most favored nation status to china, which he supported. Those steps allowed china to take advantage of the United States by using our own open trade deals against us. Do you think in retrospect you were naive about china . No. Doesnt he deserve some credit for that . This is better than nafta. It is better than nafta. We have to come together. That is why i am running. I am running as a proud democrat for the senate. So vote. Vote. God bless you. Can somebody tell joe, by the way, it is not a real website . And joe, you are running for president and not senator . And that senator, the mormon guy, is mitt romney, not some mormon governor . Sadly what we showed you is just from a couple hours today. Every time joe actually leaves the basement bunker and stays out past 10 00 a. M. , disaster ensues. Here is a quick reminder. Tomorrow is super thursday tuesday. And i want to thank you all. I tell you what i am rushing ahead, arent i . We hold these truths to be selfevident. All men and women created you know the thing. Do you agree with me . Go to joe 3030. We choose truth over fact. Play the radio. Make the television excuse me, make sure you have the record player on at night. Make sure the kids hear words. Poor kids are just as brave and just as talented as way kids. Donald trump does pose an it is not hypothetical. This is pretty serious. These are way beyond an occasional campaign gaffe, and i am beginning well, i am more than a little worried that this man could represent a clear and present danger to this country. He is obviously not capable of leading. He has been hiding the entire campaign, and the corrupt media mob is covering for him. Joe wants to be the president of the United States of america. That would be the toughest job in the world, and at times, joe does not seem to remember he is even running for president or what state he is and or what day of the week it is. Does anybody really believe that if elected that joe biden will actually be in control of anything . What kind of country are we going to be . Four more years of George George we are going to find ourselves in a position where if trump gets elected, we are going to be in a different world. Barack and i think it is a right for people to have health care. Folks, we have a lot of work to do. I dont need you to get me elected. I need you once i am elected. I will lead an effective strategy to mobilize. [cheers and applause] pres. Trump thank you. [cheers and applause] [chanting four more years] pres. Trump thank you very much. That saves a lot of words appear up here on this cold, windy night. It saves a lot of words. But we cannot do this to our country. We have such potential. We cannot do this. He has failed for 47 years. In the debate, all i had to do was say, joe, why didnt you do it . Joe, you were there for a long time and you were in that position. Why didnt you do it, joe . And he never had an answer. No lawenforcement endorsements, no nothing. Joining us tonight are some people who have done a great job and people who have really helped me a lot in washington. A man who right now i hear is doing extremely well in the polls, senator thom tillis. [cheers and applause] i just saw a very good poll and we had a very good poll today. If i dont win after coming here one of my geniuses said, i think they understand you have only been out here for two days. I said, i dont have the courage to even think about asking the question. Would never even think about it. You have been great to me. The victories we have had together. And what we have done for you and we have you protected, including your tobacco growers. We have you open back there. You are all protected. A really wonderful person, a wonderful woman, and she is always with me. Representative virginia foxx. Virginia, thank you. Great job you do. A man that i would love to see you. I think we can get a guarantee tonight. Lieutenant governor dan forest. Come on, dan. Good, dan. That is a natural. You will open it up right away . Ok. He should win just on that one. This is crazy. He is doing what the washington democrats are telling him to do. Attorney general candidate jim oneill. Hi, jim. Great job, jim. Gop chairman mike whatley. How we doing, mike . Are we winning . Are we leading the polls . We should be up. Can you imagine . Can you imagine . Pastor and a friend of mine, and he lives right down the road, pastor franklin graham. [cheers and applause] and i would like to take a second to pray for this man. Our father and our god, we pray for our president. Protect him and his family, and protect our nation. We pray this in jesus name, amen. Pres. Trump those are good genes right there. Thats good genes. Billy graham, how good was billy graham . Nobody like billy. After years of rebuilding foreign countries, we are finally rebuilding our country. For 47 years, the democrats viciously and brutally, repeatedly attacked and you know what we are talking about because it was led by a man named joe biden. Black americans, they attacked, decimated the black middle class and called young black men super predators. To every black american, i am asking you to vote. You have to vote on tuesday. You can send a message on tuesday to the corrupt democrat establishment. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. We have had tremendous support. Just so you understand, i dont want to look at all those cameras. We are doing so well. One of the great things that has happened is our africanamerican vote, our black community vote, is way up. And they are all saying wow. They are all saying everybody back there is saying wow, thats amazing. Thats whats happening in florida, thats whats happening here, thats whats happening all over. This is your one and only chance to show Sleepy Joe Biden what you think of his decisions to attack. I am fighting for you. If you look at what we have done, criminal justice reform, prison reform, opportunity zones, historically black colleges and universities, longterm funding. They had no funding. Every year they had to come back and ask for funding. I said, we have to get you longterm funding. We got them more money than they wanted. They needed it. Under my leadership, we achieved the most secure United States border in the history of our country. Biden would make every city in america a sanctuary city, which is not good. And it is not biden, it is not biden. It is his handlers. I believe our country should be a sanctuary for lawabiding american citizens. [cheers and applause] the bidenharris plan would also increase refugees 700 , hoping floodgates to radical islamic terrorism. You see what is happening in france. I am keeping terrorists, jihadists, and violent extremists out of our country. And you know, though i was asked on this very windy night, speaking of that, to do a thing that we used to do during the campaign. Has anyone heard of the snake . Should i do it . This has to do with the subject, and it has been a long time since i have done this one but so many people are asking. Are you ready . The snake. On her way to work one morning, down the path along the lake, a tenderhearted woman saw a poor, halffrozen snake. His pretty color skin had been all frosted with the dew. Poor thing, she cried, i will take you in and i will take care of you. Take me in, oh tender woman, take me in, for heavens sake. Take me in, oh tender woman, sighed that vicious snake. She wrapped him up all cozy in a comforter of silk and she laid him by the fire with some honey and some milk. She hurried home from work that night. As soon as she arrived, she found that pretty snake she had taken in had been revived. Take me in, oh tender woman, take me in, for heavens sake. Take me in, oh tender woman, sighed that vicious snake. She clutched him to her bosom. You are so beautiful, she cried. If i hadnt brought you in by now, you know you would have died. She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight, but instead of saying thank you, the snake gave her a vicious bite. Take me in, oh tender woman, take me in, for heavens sake. Take me in, oh tender woman, sighed that vicious snake. I saved you, cried the woman. You bit me, but why . You knew your bite was poisonous and now i am going to die. Shut up, silly woman, said the reptile with a grin. You knew damn well i was a snake before you took me in. I have been asked by so many people. I have been asked to do that one by so many people. But that pertains a little bit to what we see going on. You look at paris and you look at the attacks over the last week and you look at what is happening, and we are doing very well. We are doing very well. We have a very strong policy. We put in a ban that a lot of people were upset about, and now they are saying thank you very much for the ban. We appreciate it very much. We invested 2. 5 trillion in the u. S. Military. We also passed v. A. Choice and v. A. Accountability for our great vets. We have a 91 Approval Rating with our vets, the highest by a lot in history. At my direction, the United States military conducted a Successful Operation to rescue an american hostage last night, kidnapped overseas just 96 hours earlier. Incredible people. The u. S. Special forces brilliantly executed a daring nighttime operation. Over the last four years, we have rescued a record 55 hostages in more than 24 countries, and we pay nothing. Once you pay, those numbers go very high. But this operation should serve as a stark warning to terrorists and thugs who try to kidnap our people. You cannot escape the long reach of American Military and american justice. [cheers and applause] so this happened last night. We are very proud of them. I was at fort bragg. By the way, we are leaving the name fort bragg. [cheers and applause] let that word out. Cancel culture. Lets change everything. We are leaving the name fort bragg. We won two world wars out of fort bragg and other great places. Gee, lets change the name of fort bragg. We obliterated the isis caliphate and we killed the leader of isis, albaghdadi. Soleimani is dead. I withdrew from the last of ministrys disastrous iran nuclear deal. I recognized the American Embassy in jerusalem. I also recognized israeli sovereignty over the golan heights. We did it in less than two hours and we are now forging peace in the middle east. There are already three countries and they are lined up. A vote for me and the Republican Party is a vote to save the american dream. 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. [cheers and applause] we will hire more police, increase penalties on law enforcement, and we will ban deadly sanctuary cities. With gods help, we will defend the right to life, religious liberty, free speech, and the right to keep and bear arms, your second amendment. [cheers and applause] which sleepy joe will not be doing any of that. We will maintain americas unrivaled military might and we will ensure peace through strength. And we are the envy of the worlds military. 2. 5 trillion, but we have the finest missiles and rockets and tanks and jet. But we have submarines. We have the greatest military and our Nuclear Arsenal has been updated and is in tippy top shape, and only hope to god we never have to use it. Hope to god we never have to use it. We will end surprise medical billing, require price transparency. It starts on january 1. Lower drug prices even more. Going to bring them down to the lowest anywhere in the world. I have exercised a thing called favored nations. The Drug Companies do not like me too much. We will always protect patients with preexisting conditions. America will land the first woman on the moon and the United States will be the first nation to land an astronaut on mars. We will stop the radical indoctrination of our students and restore Patriotic Education to our schools. We will teach our children to love our country, honor our history, and always respect our Great American flag. And we will live by the timeless words of our national motto, in god we trust. [cheers and applause] for years, you had a president who apologized for america. Now you have a president who is standing up for america, and standing up for the great people of north carolina. [cheers and applause] two days from now, americas fate is in your hands. You must get out and vote. This is the most important election possibly in the history of our country. You must let everyone know, go get them. Go grab your family, grab your boss, grab your coworkers, grab the mall. You have to go out and vote. From asheville to charlotte, from wilmington to raleigh, and right here in hickory. [cheers and applause] greatest furniture in the world. I have bought plenty of it. And it is much better than what they make in china, that i can tell you. I know it well. We inherit the legacy of redblooded american ventures who gave their blood, sweat, and tears to defend our country and defend our freedom. We stand on the shoulders of american heroes, right . These are great, great heroes who crossed the oceans, settled a continent, laid down the railroads, raised up the great skyscrapers, won two world wars, defeated fascism and communism, and made america into the single greatest nation in the history of the world and the best is yet to come. [cheers and applause] proud citizens like you helped build our country, and together we are taking back our country. We are returning power to you, the american people. With your help, your devotion, and your drive, we are going to keep on working. We are going to keep on fighting. And we are going to keep on winning, winning, winning. Vote for tom. Get tom in there. We are one movement, one people, one family, and one glorious nation under god. And together with the incredible people of north carolina, we have made america powerful again, our military. We have made america wealthy again. We have made america strong again. We have made america proud again. We have made america safe again. And we will make America Great again. Thank you, north carolina. Go out and vote. Thank you. Thank you.
