Of the most significant things we have done to build a party. You have been the heart and soul not hyperbole including the tough fights. But when we did it wasnt always on the first try either. But the record will show we won most of them together. And its due to the power and resilience of so many women in this room i saw those qualities firsthand by the way because im characterized as the old guy but i have campaigned in district campaigns for more Democratic Candidates than anybody around and this last time out i went into 24 states campaigning for over 60 candidates and alongside walking door to door to speak at rallies with 33 women last year. Most in the red and purple states. I can say without fear of contradiction the most Remarkable Group of qualified candidates i have ever campaigned for. [applause] one of the things you have helped to change in this room is that we no longer talk about womens issues. Every single issue is a womans issue. [applause] the economy, guns, healthcar economy, guns, healthcare, natil security. The women that i campaigned for they had graduated from one of the academies whether naval or air force et cetera. And even in the National Intelligence service one campaigned for me. They forgot more about foreign policy. This is not a joke then donald trump will ever know. He doesnt even know. Really. The air force captains and the attendant thing commanders. The first marine Fighter Pilot in combat women understand in their bones what it means to have the backs of our allies when we make a commitment. [applause] i know we think about these in male terms but think about what is changing here. Yes told your sons and daughters theres not a damn thing my son could do that my daughter could not do as well and it has fundamentally changed around the world. I understand the gravity of what it means when we abandon its no surprise those women 25 that we won back the house because of that. [applause] and they are all fighters. Last smart lawn last month marked the 25th anniversary of the first fight. I remember when i first drafted the act there was difficulty to get people to think it was possible because so many people try that before and it was thought to be maybe we should not be engaged with choice and gender but a number of people said youre already deeply involved in the crisis centers. As some of you remember what our opponent said when we suggest we have federally funded womens shelters and this was literally repeated through the fundamental churches biden want to set up the Indoctrination Centers is not a joke of course we were facing a political attack we continue to face the need to change American Culture and how we treat women in society Domestic Violence is considered a Family Affair as a member of the Christian Coalition those that supported us to say biden is breaking up families the burden of Sexual Assault was always laid out the womans feet. What were you wearing . Did you have on a bra we wearing a slip . What did you say . Remember that lovely young woman who came to new york city i convinced her to testify about what would happen she wanted to leave her apartment complex on the Upper East Side and had a Restaurant Bar on the first floor. The landlord kept harassing her every time she wanted to move from a efficiency to a onebedroom apartment so she got a call when doing a shoot and said if you stop at the restaurant on the way back we will have signed a contract i have a one bedroom apartment. She did when she stopped she went to sign the agreement and he hit on her again so she walked out so they slashed her face with razors because he hired two goons. And i asked her before she testified about Public Opinion at the time what did your mother say . She said why was i in a bar . What did your girlfriend say to you . What we wearing . How short was your skirt . Folks, these are insidious and destructive ways to approach an issue. We are still fighting this backward thinking today but because of the incredible bravery of those who came forward with their stories and then to begin to break the dam of cultural resistance we passed the violence against women act that as we expanded the coverage but i wanted to do from the beginning but could not get done we authorization is to improve the law and cover more people native american women Lgbt Community of what we shouldve done 25 years ago and could not get it done. We got it done along the way but still today Mitch Mcconnell and republicans that the boyfriend loophole i try to say you cant own a weapon even if you are not married with a Domestic Abuse order or Domestic Violence or misdemeanors. But because of the nra what is happening . Whether you have a dating partner rather than being married. You should be protected and nobody should have a weapon. What also keeps firearms out of the hands of convicted folks . Think about this. Think about what he sold out to the nra in a way that is absolutely outrageous. We have to get this past program sorry to raise this with you now that we need your voices in addition to helping the Democratic Party win but to have significant influence and put the pressure on this administration on this president but more portly on the congress and United States senate to force them to have to vote. [applause] folks, we are in a situation where i dont think its an exaggeration to say that donald trump not only is a president that has belittled women and degraded than his whole lif life, now he has gone beyond that to strike at the heart of our democracy. His entire life is built on abuse of power. So i bring this up because i think the American People are finally on to him. And the more that congress focuses on his corrupt behavior the more erratic he will become. He has another year in office. Maybe. May be. [applause] this is the single most corrupt administration in all of american history. It is rotten to the core. Scores of advisors and members of the administration they have gone to jail convicted of felonies and others will be going to jail. [applause] and he gets more vicious and erratic and selfserving as the accountability closes in on him. It has gone so far to cross the line. I dont want to sound like a frustrated historian betty George Washington said first thing after becoming presiden president , the most serious threat our republic faces, i am paraphrasing, is interference from foreign powers. They bring down the republic. Guess what . What has he done . Now has invited three Foreign Countries to engage and interfere in the electoral process. He has 10 million of ads working out there to say i will beat them again the nra. The Insurance Companies. With the huntsman one henchmen and his thugs with this involvement. So two of those got arrested sneaking out of the country warren got arrested coming back into the country. One of those masterminds rudy giuliani. [laughter] have to be careful here. [laughter] he refuses to answer any questions and that reminds me of the line from voltaire that sai said. I have never made one prayer to god. Old lord make my enemies ridiculous and god granted it. [laughter] [applause] and god has granted it again to the Democratic Party. [laughter] this election is not to get me out of the race but its about you and the American People. Its about healthcare we have to overcome the special interest Insurance Companies who pray and pay a lot of money because every single american can choose the public option that by the way we can fully afford to make sure every child has access to a good education regardless of the code and when you do that so every single child in america three and four and five years old and then to pay teachers what they deserve. [applause] no matter what their grades are the dead by codifying roe v wade as a matter of law. The means of fear and panic related to gun violence you see them here to death and they teach you how to move in and not be caught in the crossfire. It is the single greatest concern. Children between the ages of five and 17 think they will be shot in school. What have we become . We have to take something on the nra i am the only one that has beaten them nationally ive been them twice if im the nominee i promise you i will beat them like a drum again. [cheers and applause] because the woman i asked to be on the judiciary committee, Diane Feinstein is the reason we finally my finally got this. Eliminating magazines with multiple mount you cannot run around with more than three shotgun shells with a magazine that carries 100 rounds. What in gods name are we doing . That means taking on the existential threat of Climate Change and rejoining the Paris Climate Accord to make sure in the first 100 days of my administration all of those members of the climate accord will come to the United States of america to recommit to for what they can do they make up 85 percent of the problem. If we dont lead it the vacuum will be filled by others who dont have interest for the American People. So we have to defeat donald trump. Literally we cannot get a damn thing done unless he is defeated. It would be really difficult to be called into whoever wins the race it will take a helluva lot of work to make up for the damage he is done internationally and nationally. The thugs and coconspirators will undermine the democracy in the meantime. Imagine what could happen in ukraine. More importantly but imagine what would happen of iran. When he embraces the thugs around the world like kim jungun like any bully i have ever known. But he is definitely afraid. That he should be because of the women in this room. [cheers and applause] then you will go out and hit them like a drum. But im so tired of democrats with their heads down like whoa is me. What will be due . How can we get anything done . We are better positioned than any nation in the world to on the 21st century. What i got elected as a 29 yearold kid i was labeled as the idealistic optimistic guy. We have the most productive workers in the world more research and diversity more changes taken place than all over the world combined where situation theres not a damn thing we can do. I spent the last five years of my life working on how to be cancer. We are on our way. Imagine what we can do for those around the world to change the nature of how we relate to one another. Folks, i am so damn tired of us forgetting of who we are. This is the United States of america there has never ever been a time when america sets its mind to something it has not gotten it done this is the United States of america lets take it back and lead the world again. Thank you for protecting the troops and thank you for having me. [applause] if youre headed over to the museum thank you so much.
