To government, anytime, anywhere. Nikki haley officially filed republican in New Hampshire. [chanting] move back please. It is a tradition that we bring it in here for a president ial candidate to sign. That is amazing, thank you. A formal part of this is to sign your declaration of candidacy. And we have your check, and there is one other document. And this is a tradition, this is a notice to voters that we post at every polling place. We take one copy and asked the president ial candidate to write a brief message to the voters of New Hampshire and sign it. Doesnt matter where . Anywhere you want. I am sure the press would love to know what you wrote. I wrote lets do this. Thank you. So we are just going to do the press conference from here. What separates you from other candidates on the trail in New Hampshire, and also why should New Hampshire republicans fall in line around the former president . I have been a chief executive, i have been a governor, i have also been on the Foreign Policy world. I dealt with china, russia, iran, every day for two years. Not a couple of times a year. I know the threats that face us in the world and i know what it takes to keep america safe. I think people are ready for a new generational conservative leader. We feel the momentum on the ground. We are going to work hard to earn every single vote. You have talked about the need for moral clarity in leadership. We heard the front runners comments this week. Does he have moral clarity . I think we need a new generational leader, we need to leave the chaos of the past. If you look at what is happening now, what do we have . Democrat chaos with inflation, lack of transparency in the classrooms, open borders, crime on our streets and threats around the world. You dont fix democrat chaos with republican chaos. He is so focused on the past. He keeps talking about him, he keeps talking about headlines of the past. Need someone that is working ford looking forward. If you keep living in the past, that is what i think to go and give credit to hezbollah, to congratulate the Chinese Communist party and criticize the head of a country who had just felt massive ledge had. That is not what we need in a president. We need someone who knows the difference between good and evil, the difference between right and wrong. I am going to work to make sure every american is safe and we have the backs of our allies. [indiscernible] [reporters asking questions] i am calling on this person. If the rest of utah, we cannot answer any questions. The rest of you talk, we cannot answer questions. What would you do to help innocent civilians who will be caught in the crossfire and what would you do at the border in egypt, they are not letting people from gaza in. The last thing we want to see is more innocent lives lost. I have been on the ground, i have been on the border of gaza, on the border of lebanon, i have seen the missiles facing israel. I have been in the tunnels and i saw where they hide equipment, ammunition, hostages, where they hide before they try to inflict pain. And i know how sophisticated they are. And where did they put these tunnels . They put them under schools, hospitals, because they know that israelis value human life. They do whatever it takes to make sure that happens. What we are looking at is, i think israel is right to want to eliminate hamas. Having said that, what did israel do . Dropped flyers, telling everybody to get out. What is hamas doing, saying no, stay. Why do they do that . They want innocent civilians to die. They want to put it on israel that innocent civilians died. If egypt care so much about palestinians, they should open up the avenues. But what we are going to see is the fact that we can no longer have hamas exist. There would not be hamas without iran and we need to make sure we finish this. What is your pathway to beating trump in the primary . What we have done right now, over 100 events in iowa and New Hampshire, all of the events in south carolina. We are touching shaking every hand, answering every question and working hard to show not and what we are going to do is fight turn every single persons vote. Why are we getting the momentum we are getting, we are identifying with real people. We know they are feeling inflation in the Grocery Store on the gas pump. I know what we need to do to get that back on track. We know that they are feeling crime on the streets. We need to have the backs of our Law Enforcement. We know that they want transparency in the classroom. And parents of one job, they deserve to know about their children in the classroom. We know that theres an open border. The Biggest NationalSecurity Threat is that those terrorists come into america and we have another 9 11. We have to do everything we can to stop it. America can never be so arrogant to think that we dont need friends or that that cant happen to us. We need to make sure we have someone who will keep america safe. Iowans, granite stators in south carolinians are seeing that. They dont want a president , harris, they want someone who will bring sanity back and someone ready to sit there and work and serve them. When it comes to Everything Else we are second in iowa and New Hampshire. There is more we have to overcome and we will do that as well. When you look at the chaos in congress, the inability to elect a speaker when arjun access from congress could be needed, how would your viewers in the oval office Bring Community and are you concerned that inaction from the gop might have some consequences for republicans in 2024 . When i was governor, we had a Republican House in the senate. This doesnt need to play out for americans to see. They dont need to leave until they fix this. They dont need to get paid until they fix this. What i will remind my fellow republicans is, you dont fix democrat chaos with republican chaos. Get it together, get us a leader. If you look at what happened in congress, they have one job and thats to get us a budget. They have only given a budget on time four times in 40 years. We have not seen action from congress on the border, on the budget, on bringing down debt, on try to make sure we get Legal Immigration or in dealing with these other issues. When america is distracted, the world is less safe. We are seeing that play out. Get it together, its not about you, its about the American People in the American People are generally this. They need to get in the room and not leave until they figure this out. You called to increase Campaign Transparency and campaign finance. As president how would you increase that . I believe in transparency. And campaign finance, you should see everything, thats the bottom line. If you can see it, that gives you more information. We will always make sure everything is available to be seen and you can see everything going on. That informs voters and makes for good decisions. Massachusetts lawmakers are trying to house all the migrants. They are trying to alligator millions of more dollars. How would you assist them in what they are doing on a daytoday basis . The way i would assist states with the influx of Illegal Immigrants is to close the border. The way we would close the border is, you close it. We would put 25,000 more Border Patrol and ice agents on the ground and let them do their job. We need to defund sanctuary cities once and for all. We need to go back to the mexico policy and instead of catch and release we need to go to catch and deport. It came out that of all the people that came through, 1000 of them came from lebanon, yemen and iran. That doesnt even count afghanistan. Look at what happened to israel. Look at what happened to israel. Dont think as americans on september 10, think about being americans on september 12. Weve got to get our focus back, weve got a start paying attention to what matters, it is a dereliction of duty what joe biden and Kamala Harris of done on the border. Its not just a southern border, its a northern border. The fact that weve had more americans died than the iraq, afghanistan and vietnam wars combined, number one cause of death, fentanyl. Dont think for a second china doesnt know what they are doing when they send it over. I just wanted to give you an opportunity to respond, Governor Desantis was critical of the United Nations organization and that it sanctions israel too much. Just given your history, i would like to give you an opportunity to respond to that. It is a worthless organization. They do get on israel too much. It has been a farce, its the reason why a fathers as hard as i was. But if you look at the time that i serve there, i took the kick me sign off of our backs and america was respected again. Every day i dealt with the russians, the chinese, arena teens, north koreans, syrians, palestinians and israelis. Ive had to negotiate with all of them. I know when they are telling the truth that i know when they are lying. We got respect of the United Nations because i told these countries when america was for and what america was against. I didnt care if they didnt like me but i wanted them to respect america. Have you been in touch with israeli officials since the attack . Yes if ive been in touch with israeli officials, i sent my message to netanyahu, which was, finish them. Ive been in touch with my former friend and colleague, ambassador danny jones. What you make of them saying that trumps comments about hezbollah make sense that you can be smart and evil. What you think your fellow candidates should be saying right now in response to terms comments should everyone call him out for what he said . Vivek ramaswamy sounds like the squad. Theres no place for them in the comments whether its related to israel or hezbollah or any of that. You dont congratulate or give any credit to murderers. What you do is you call them out and you dont do just words, you do actions. Thats whats israel stranded you, you need to have israels back. You dont just have israels back when they get hit, we need to have israels back when they get hit. Thats the focus that we need to have. An american president needs to always have moral clarity. You have to know the difference between right and wrong. You have to know the difference between good and evil. This is a stark contrast between good and evil. We need to be able to see that for what it is an act accordingly. Whats your reaction to the call to protest today by the former leader . When you look at the leader of hamas, what did he say . He said he wanted people to come out today with anger. He said he wanted them to show financial jihad. He wanted them to give money to the terrorist organization but he said more than money, what we want from you is to give your blood in your soul. That is what we are talking about. Everybody needs to be vigilant today, no one needs to be scared. We dont run from anyone that tries to intimidate us. We are a blessed country. My husband is serving right now, along with a lot of military men and women, that allow us the freedom of speech we have. We believe in freedom of speech. Freedom of speech should always be there. Freedom of violence should not. Any time that we see anything that could be violent, i hope Law Enforcement will make sure they handle it accordingly. Earlier this week we heard the former congressman talking up the race against you. Is it time for the other longshots in this race or color quits . Willard has been a Great American and whether he worked for intelligence or serving congress, i was honored to get his support and i appreciated. In terms of consolidating the field, thats not for me. I appreciate every candidate that served on that stage. It took a lot for them and their family to do it. I think its up to the voters and donors to decide which candidates. A lot of these reporters say therefore donald trump first, what if donald trump is marked out of the vote . Rex i dont hear that. When i go to the town halls no one is asking me about donald trump. They are talking about the issues that affect them. What they care about is getting our country back on track and we are doing that, the momentum is real. I dont need to tell you, talk to the people on the ground in New Hampshire. We have a lot of people that say that they support president trump, but that doesnt mean they are voting for him. What im doing is its not about anybody else in the race. Its about what will we do to get america back on track. Americans deserve it. I dont want my kids growing up in a country the way that it is right now. I dont want them feeling this chaos and i want to make sure they are safe. I will do everything i can to earn the support of every american in this country, but then i will work hard to prove to them they made the right decision. We have to make america strong and proud again when im president , we will make sure to do that. Thank you. God bless. Clear the room, we are moving out, lets go.
