Positivity that is up lifting some far much of what we herd are sustained attacks on the Democratic Party and joe bride in. But i will say this, we have seen a number of every day americans, just like democrats did last week, we herd from a nurse, we lettered from front line workers, we herd from a Small Business owner, really answering the question, is your life better than four years ago. And all of them had said yes. And the way they are addressing it are special Education Services particular to the coronavirus, economic downfall. So we also have herd from a number of President Trumps staunchest supporters, we will see some of this speak later, former un ambassador nikki haley, tim scott the only black republican senator at that level. So there are a number of things we are going to hear, but the theme has really been to characterize joe biden, the democrats as socialists, and that has been the theme last week and counter programming that we saw. But also trying to defend President Trumps response to covid19 which many polls will tell you, Many Americans dont believe that the administration has handled the virus as well as they could have or they should have. And so were seeing President Trump painted in a very optimistic positive light. Again, like democrats did in painting a bleak picture if President Trump was re elected. Saying our liberties are at risk if joe biden and Kamala Harris are elected some with that we want to get you back to some of the programming of the rnc, well be back for a full wrapup in just a little bit. Where american Pastor Andrew Brunson had be released. American jailed in egypt is back in the u. S. After an intervention by the trump administration. A tough and skilled negotiator, President Trump successfully won the release of detainees and prisoners, among the most of any president in american history. While families waited in despair for news of their loved ones, President Trump provided a new spark of hope by bringing our hostages home. We have danny burch back home where he should be. Else in yemen in a very horrible situation. Yesterday the United States government secured the release of kaitlyn coleman, joshua bill and three children. Ed to we are bringing home another american citizen. Just had news that turkey released a prisoner that we were trying to get to the United States. Under this administration, america has not and will not turn its back on our people. President trump will bring them home they had you scheduled for a long time, you were an innocent person and he ultimately after we had a few conversations, he agreed. So we appreciate that and we appreciate the people of turkey and you still appreciate the people of turkey, i understand, right . Sounds great. Great to have you back, andrew. Thank you. Please. Mr. President , thank you for having me. Im sam goodwin, held in syria for 63 days.

Its nice to meet you again, its been great. Great feedback helping people through situation that theyve gone through and now we start our family. Well the great people of utah really wanted me to do something about the two of you. And we were able to do it. And a little bit of a miracle i think, frankly. It was. That was a hostile period. And we appreciate everybody, working so hard with us. But we were able to get you both back, are you living in utah. Still in utah. Say hello to the folks in utah, they are great people, thank you very much. Congratulations. Thank you. Please. Of spent unexpected trip there in india, i was not going to india, i was going through india to nappal. Thank you President Trump forgetting us out and getting us home. The darkest moment of our whole time together your letter to my wife came and it gave her the hope and peace. Thats great. From that time forward as more people got involved especially the ambassador there in india, things became peaceful and the hope was there for the last four months that we really would get to come home. They planned on keeping me 3 to 5 years. The 0 original charge was 3 to 5 years. That was cleared and then they came up with. India responded very well to my request. So we appreciate that. Thank you all for being with us. We have a few more people and we will get them back and they will be back soon. Great stories. Hello, my. I live in miami, florida. Not far from the straights of florida which is an 80mile blue streak. Freedom from fear. Device the past, the past from the future. I know all about the past. I will never forget my own. My family has fled communism. More than once. First from spain, then from cuba. By my family is done run away. By the grace of god i live the American Dream. The greatest blessing i ever had, my dad only had a six grade education told me, dont lose this place, you will never be im speaking to you today because my families done abandoning what we rightfully earned. There is no place to hide. Speaking to you today because President Trump may not always be politically correct, he is in fact a successful businessman, not your average career politician. Our president is another family man. A friend, most important our elected commander in chief who puts america first. Keep in mind the other guy running for president is mostly concerned about power. Yes, yes, power for them. But not for the benefit of all americans. And speaking to you today because i have seen people like this before. I have seen movements like this before, i have seen ideas like this before. And i am here to tell you, we cannot let them take over our country. I heard the promises of fidel castro and i can never forget all those who grew up around me, to look like me, who suffered and starved and died because they believed those empty promises. They swallow the communist poison pill. Have you a chance, go to the Freedom Tower in miami. Stop and listen, can you still hear the sounds of those broken promises. It is the sound of waves in the ocean carrying families clinging to pieces of wood. Families with children who cant swim, but willing to risk everything to reach this blessed land. It is the sound of tears hitting the paper of an application to become an american citizen. Most heard unlike the promises but soon after they experienced reality. Look at them. Listen to them. The truth. Those folks promises spread the wealth, free education, free healthcare, free from the police, trusted socialist state more than your family and your community. They dont sound radical to my ears. They sound familiar. Fidel castro asked if he was a communist. He said he was a roman catholic, he knew he had to hide the truth. But the country i was born in is gone, totally destroyed. I watch the news in seattle, chicago, portland, and other cities, when i see the history being when i hear the promises, i have herd i hear echos of former life i never wanted to hear again. I see shadows. I thought i had out run. My parents only wanted one person to decide my fate, me. Not some member, not some government official, not some beurocrat. In america i would decide my own future. I am so grateful to america, the place where i was able to build my American Dream, through hard work and determination, President Trump knows the american story was written by people like you and i. Who love our country. And take risks to build a future for our families and neighbors. I may be a cuban born but i am 100 american. This is the greatest country in the world. I said this before, if i gave away everything that i have today it would equal 1 of what i was given. And i came to this great country of ours. The gift of freedom. Right now it is up to us to decide our fate and to choose freedom over oppression. President trump, hes fighting the forces of anarchy an communism. I know he will continue to do just that and what about his opponent and the rest of the dc swamp . I have no doubt they will hand the country over to those dangerous forces. You and i will decide. And here is what i have decided. My decision is very easy. I choose President Trump because i choose america i choose freedom. I still hear my dad. There is no other place to go. Thank you. May the good lord bless america. Democrats are going more and more left. Many positive about socialism liking it more than capitalism. Many of the ideas we fought for that were considered radical are now main stream. The compromise that they came up with, if implemented, will make biden the most progressive president since fdr. The radical left has taken over the Democratic Party, and joe biden is marching in lock step with them. Biden and the far left are promising to crush middle class families with trillions in new taxes. If you elect me your taxes are going to be raised not cut. Promising amnesty and health care for is 11 million immigrants. Citizen for 11 million undocumented folks. Killing jobs and hurting americas economy. I guarantee we are going to end fossil fuel. In Joe Bidens America the radical left get whatever they want and you get to pay for it. Theyve already taken over joe biden and the Democratic Party. Dont let them take over america. Good evening. Im nikki haley and its great to be back at the Republican National convention. I will start with the little story. Its about an American Ambassador to the United Nations, and its about a speech she gave to this convention. She called for the reelection of the republican president she served. And she called out his democratic opponent. A former Vice President from a failed administration. That ambassador said, and i quote, democrats always blame america first. The year was 1984. The president was ronald reagan. An ambassador jane kirk patricks words are just as true today. Joe biden and the democrats are still blaming america first. Donald trump has always put america first. And he has earned four more years as president. It was an honor of a lifetime to serve as the United States ambassador to the United Nations. Now the un is not for the faint of heart. Its a place where dictators, murderers and thieves denounce america. And then put their hands out and demand that we pay their bills. Well President Trump put an end to all of that. With his leadership, we did what barack obama and joe bride in refused to do. We stood up for america and we stood against our enemies. Obama and biden let north korea threaten america. President trump rejected that weakness and we passed the toughest sanctions on north korea in history. Obama and biden let iran get away with murder and literally sent them a plane full of cash. President trump did the right thing and ripped up the iran nuclear deal. Obama and biden led the United Nations to denounce our friend and ally israel. President trump, moved our embassy to jerusalem, when the un tried to condemn us, i was proud to cast the american veto. This president has a record of strength and success, the former Vice President has a record of weakness and failure. Joe biden is good for iran and isis, great for communist china and he is a god send to everyone who wants america to apologize, abstain and abandon our values. Donald trump takes a different approach. Hes tough on china. And he took on isis and won. And he tells the world what it needs to hear. At home the president is the clear choice on jobs and the economy. He has moved America Forward while joe biden has held america back. When joe is vp, i was governor of the great state of South Carolina. We had a pretty good run. Manufacturers of all kinds flocked to our state from over seas creating tens of thousands of american jobs. People were referring to South Carolina as the beast of the southeast, which i loved. Everything we did happened in spite of joe biden and his old boss. We cut taxes, they raised them. We slashed red tape, they piled on more mandates. And when we brought in good paying jobs biden and obama sued us. I fought back and they gave up. A Bidenharris Administration would be much much worse. Last time joes boss was obama. This time it would be pelosi, sanders, and the squad. Their vision for america is socialism, and we know that socialism has failed everywhere. They want to tell americans how to live, what to think, they want a government takeover of healthcare. They want to ban fracking and kill millions of jobs, massive tax hikes on working families. The socialist left would an disaster for our economy. But President Trump is leading a new era of opportunity. Before communist china gave us the coronavirus, we were breaking economic records left and right. The pandemic has set us back but not for long. President trump brought our economy back before, and he will bring it back again. There is one more important area where our president is right. He know that Political Correctness and cancel culture are dangerous. And just plain wrong. In much of the Democratic Party its now fashionable to say that america is racist. That is a lie. America is not a racist country. This is personal for me. I am the proud daughter of indian immigrants, they came to america and settled in a small southern town. My father wore a turban, my mother wore a sari, i was a brown girl answer a black and white world. We faced discrimination and hardship. But my parents never gave in to grievance and hate. My mom built a successful business. My dad taught 30 years at a historically black college and the people of South Carolina chose me as their first minority and first female governor. America is a story thats a work in progress. Now is the time 0 to build on that progress and make america freer, fairer and better for everyone. Thats why its so tragic to see so much of the Democratic Party turning a blind eye towards riots and rage. The American People know we can do better. And of course we value and respect every black life. The black cops who have been shot in the line of duty, they matter. The black Small Business owner whose watched their lifes work go up in flames, they matter. The black kids who have been gunned down on the playground, their lives matter, too. And their lives are being ruined and stolen by the violence on our streets. It doesnt have to be like this. It wasnt like this in South Carolina five years ago. Our state came face to face with evil. A white supremacist walked into Mother Emmanuel Church during bible study. 12 African Americans pulled up a chair and prayed with him for an hour. Then he began to shoot. After that horrific tragedy, we didnt turn against each other, we came together, black and white, democrat and republican, together we made the hard choices needed to heal and removed a divisive symbol peacefully and respectfully. What happened then should give us hope now. America isnt perfect, but the principles we hold dear are perfect. There is one thing i learned is that even on our worse day, we are blessed to live in america. Its time to keep that blessing alive for the next generation. This president and this party are committed to that noble task. We seek a nation that rises together. Not falls apart in anarchy and anger. We know the only way to overcome americas challenges is to embrace americas strengths. We are striving to reach a Brighter Future where every child goes to a World Class School chosen by their parents, every family lives answer Safe Community with good jobs. Where every entrepreneur has the freedom 0 to achieve and inspire. Where every believer can worship without fear and every life is protected. Where every girl and boy, every woman and man of every race and religion has the best shot at the best life. In this election, we must choose the only candidate who has and who will continue delivering on that vision. President trump and Vice President pence have my support. And america has our promise. We will build on the progress of our past, and unlock the promise of our future. That future starts when the American People reelect president donald trump. Thank you. Goodnight and may god always bless america. Good evening america, im donald trump junior. We are here tonight to talk about the Great American story. This land of promise and opportunity. Of heros and great necessary. Just a few short months ago we were seeing the American Dream become a reality for more of our receipt citizens than ever before. And pretty much every other demographic group. And then courtesy of the Chinese Communist party, the virus struck. They put Political Correctness ahead of the safety and security of the American People. Fortunately as the virus began to spread, the president acted quickly and ensured ventilators got to hospitals that needed them most. He delivered ppe to our brave front line workers and rallied the Mighty American private sector to tackle this new challenge. There is more to do, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Job gains are out pacing what the so called experts expected. Bidens left wing policies would stop our economic recovery cold. He is already talking about shutting the country gown again. Its madness. Democrats claim to be for workers but spent the entire pandemic trying to sneak a tax break into the covid relief bill. They attacked my father for suspending the payroll tax for middle classworkers. In fact, if you think about it, joe bidens entire economic platform seems designed to crush the working man and woman. He supported the worse trade deals in the history of the planet. He voted for the nafta nightmare. Down the tubes went our auto industry. He pushed for tpp. Goodbye manufacturing jobs. Beijing biden is so weak on china that the Intelligence Community recently assessed that the Chinese Communist party favors biden. They know he will weaken us economically and on a world stage. Biden also wants to bring in more Illegal Immigrants to take job from american citizens. His open border policies would drive wages down for americans at a time when low income worker were getting real wage increases for the first time in modern history. Hes pledged to repeal, the trump tax cuts which were the biggest in our country. After eight years of obama and biden slow growth, trumps policies have been like rock you fuel to the economy especially to the middle class. Biden promised to take that money back out of your pocket and keep tin the swamp. That makes sense though considering joe biden is basically the loch ness monster of the swamp. For the last half century he has been lurking around in there, he sticks his head up every now and then to run for president , disappears and doesnt do much in between. So if you are looking for hope, look to the man who did what the failed Obama Biden Administration never could do and built the greatest economy our country has ever seen. And President Trump will do it again. We will be stronger than ever because when we put our mind to it there is no obstacle that america cant you are mount. Except there is a difference this time. In the past, both parties believed in the goodness of america. We agreed on where we wanted to go. We just disagreed on how 0 to get there. This time the other party is attacking the very principles on which our nation was founded. Freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom religion, the rule of law. Thomas jefferson famously said, i have sworn upon the altar of god eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man. Our founders believed there was nothing more important than our god given right to think for ourselves. Now the left, they are trying to cancel all of those founders. They dont seem to understand this important principle. In other words to improve in the future, we must learn from our past. Not erase it. So were to the going to tear down monuments and forget the people who built our great nation. Instead, we will learn from our past so we dont repeat any mistakes. And we will work tirelessly to improve the lives of all americans. Joe biden and the radical left are now coming for our freedom of speech. They want to bully us into submission. If they get their way, it will no longer be the silent majority. It will be the silenced majority. This has to stop. Freedom of expression used to be a liberal value. At least before the radical left took over. Now the Republican Party is the home of free speech. The place where anyone from any background can speak their mind. And may the best ideas win. People of faith are under attack. You are not allowed to go to church, but mass chaos in the streets gets a pass. Its almost like this election is shaping up to be church, work and school versus rioting, losing and vandalism, or in the words of biden and the democrats, peaceful protesting. Anarchists have been flooding our streets and democrat mayors are ordering the police to stand down. Small businesses across america, many minority owned are being torched by mobs. The democrat mayors pretend its not happening, they actually called it a summer of love. That brings me to another important principle. Every american must be free to live without fear of violence in your country, in your communities and in your homes. All men and women are created equal and must be treated equally under the law. We must put an end to racism and we must ensure that any Police Officer who abuses their powers is held accountable. What happened to george floyd is a disgray and if you know a Police Officer, you know they agree with that, too. But we cannot lose sight of the fact that our police are american heros. They deserve our deepest appreciation. Because no matter what the democrats say, you and i both know when we dial 911 we dont want it going to voice mail. So defunding the police is not an option. Everything starts with safety and security. You cant have anything else without it. You cant focus on building a Better Future with our children without the peace of mind that they can study safely in their classrooms. Play safely in their neighborhoods and sleep safely in their beds. Safety is only the beginning. A place of promise, i was fortunate enough to grow up answer family that could a ford the bascules and finest universities. A great education cannot be the exclusive right of the rich and powerful, it must be accessible to all. Thats why my dad is pro school of choice. Thats why he has called Education Access the civil rights issue, not just of our time but of all time. It is unacceptable that too many African American and hispanic American Children are stuck in bad schools. Just because of their zip code. Donald trump will not stand for it. If democrats really wanted to help minorities and under served communities, instead of bowing to big money union bosses, they let parents choose what school is best for their kids. Theyd limit immigration to protect american workers, theyd support the police who protect our neighborhoods. Theyd learn how to negotiate trade deal that prioritize americas interest for a change. Theyd end the endless wars and quit sending our young people to solve problems in foreign lands. Theyd cut tax for families and workers. Theyd create opportunities zones that drive investment into inner cities. In other words, if democrats cared for the forgotten men and women of our country, theyd do exactly what President Trump is doing. America is the greatest country on earth, but my fathers entire world view revolves around the idea that we can always do even better. Imagine the life you want to have. One with a great job, a beautiful home, a perfect family. You can have it. Imagine the country you want to live in. One with true equal opportunity, where hard work pays off and justice is served with compassion and without impartiality. You can have it. Imagine a world where their evils of communism and radical islamic terrorism are not give earn chance to spread. Heros are celebrated and the good guys win. You can have it. That is the life, that is the country, that is the world that donald trump and the Republican Party are after. And yes, you can have it. Because unlike joe bind and the radical left democrats our party is open to everyone. It starts by rejecting radical whose want to drag us into the dark and embracing the man who represents a bright and beautiful future for all. It starts by reelecting Donald J Trump president of the United States. Thank you and God Bless America i work in a political space. And im madeline. A childrens nutritional company. Grew up in a small town outside of chicago. Mom from quad mall a, dad Small Business owner from chicago, we brought two different cultures together to create us a little bit of crazy and a little bit of fun, i guess. Yeah. They taught us the values of hard work, liberty, to love this country unapologetically. Our dad is a bee keeper and just so many Different Things out in the countryside, it was a sweet we grew up selling honey at farmers markets. So my line was have you ever been stung by a bee . But really, it was teaching us entrepreneurship, Small Business, Self Reliance and that were the ones that need to put in the hard work 0 to get what we want. My mother being from guatemala escape wag she had there, growing up in poverty and coming here to the United States, being able to fulfill her destiny and be somebody that she couldnt bear in her home country. They instilled in us the sense of purpose but also self accountability and that we had to strive to do the thing that we wanted and was up to us to make those things happen. In america, there is no ceiling of opportunity. You define your own destiny through personal responsibility, through hard work, through having a moral value system. Thats the American Dream. And President Trumps providing that for everybody. Look at my business begin health, as a small startup that is growing and launching, we are constantly trying to innovate and the big challenge that covid brought that we just didnt see coming was that almost everything kind of just shut down. And when you are a small startup and you have limited funding and the funding is really only to kind of get you to that next milestone, we were really struggling and so we were able to apply for a ppp loan which helped us continue hiring, so we could still launch. Is now more than ever so important to have a president and administration that understands that Small Business is the backbone of our economy. Tax cuts and jobs act was huge. Manufacturing, deregulation, fair trade. These are things that affected real americans. We have a champion in the oval office who has this business background, he actually understands the need for Small Businesses like my sisters to survive. We arent the stereo typical conservative. We come from hispanic descent, millenial women and thats not what the media wants. So somebody like aoc, far left, these women come out with these very very destructive political ideologies that are trying to infiltrate millenials and the next generation, i have decided to step up and say we need a counter voice to these women. There has been an assault on capitalism generally. I think its very scary to imagine a biden world where the progressive wing ideas are starting to take front and center stage. You know, that will really choke the american economy. There will be over regulation, over taxation, its very hard to innovate through those two things. And ultimately whats really sad is the thought of, you know, making all of us dependent on the government and we are not going to allow that. Ive seen a lot of moderates a lot of people now changing over because of everything thats been happening. This is a taste ofthe crime, freedom is at stake now. And this is going to be the most important election of our lifetime. We want to preserve the america that our mother came here for. Thriving economy, that is keeping America Great and President Trump has delivered on that promise. Hes truly fighting for the American People. Were the greatest country in the world, period on our worse day. Were still the greatest country in the world and in other words to preserve that its by putting america first, having a thriving economy. Having happiness. Good evening, im senator tim scott from the great state of South Carolina. To all of you tuning in and participating in the political process, god bless you. This isnt how i pictured tonight but our country is experiencing something none of us envisioned, from a Global Pandemic to the deaths of george floyd and breonna taylor, 2020 has tested our nation in ways we havent seen seen for decades. Regardless of the challenges presented to us, every four years americans come together to vote. To share stories of what makes our nation strong and the lessons we have learned can strengthen it for further generations. Because while this election is between donald trump and joe biden, it is not solely about donald trump and joe biden. Its about the promise of america. Its about you and me. Our challenges and heartbreaks, hopes and dreams, its about how we respond when tackling Critical Issues like police reform. When democrats called our work a token effort and walked out of the room during negotiations because they wanted the issue more than they wanted a solution. Do we want a society that breeds success or culture that cancels everything it even slightly disagrees with . I knew where i stand because you see i am living my mothers American Dream. My parents divorced when i was 7 years old and we moved in with my grandparents into a two bedroom home with me, my mom and my brother share ago room and one bed. My mom worked 16 hours a day to keep food on the table and a roof over our heads. She knew if we could find the opportunity, bigger things would come. I thought hi to use football to succeed in life. And my focus on academics faded away. My freshman year i failed out. I failed four subjects, spanish, english, world geography, and even civics. Trust me though, after seven years in the senate, i know im not the only one in congress who failed civics. But even while i was failing the 9th grade, my mother always said to me, if you would just shoot for the moon even if you miss, will you be among the stars. She never lost faith in me, even when i lost faith in myself. Because of her encouragement i went to Summer School and caught up. The next year i met my mentor, a chickfila operator. John saw something in me that i could not see in myself and started teaching me valuable life lessons like having a job would be a good thing, but creating jobs would be even better. That having an income could change my lifestyle, but creating a profit could change my community. He planted the seeds of what would become opportunity zones, this initiative that the president and i worked together on is bringing more than 75 billion of private Sector Investment into distressed communities. I took those lessons to heart and started putting the pieces of my life back together. I realized a quality education is the closest thing to magic in america. Thats why i fight to this day for school of choice. To make sure every child and every neighborhood has a quality education. Why care if its a public, private charter, virtual or a home school, when a parent has a choice their kid has a better chance. And the president has fought alongside me on that. Later in life i started my own Small Business. Thats why i know it is critical for us to have a tax code that encourages growth. We actually saw revenues to the treasury increase after we lowered taxes in 2017. Rest assured the democratic do not want you to know that. After starting my Small Business and spending time in local government i decided to run for congress in 2010. The district is based in charleston, South Carolina where the civil war started. Against a son of our legendary senator stroll thurman. You may be asking yourself how does a poor black kid from a single parent household run and win in a race crowd weekend republicans against a thurman. Because of the evolution of the southern heart. In an overwhelmingly white district, the voters judged me not on the color of my skin but on the content of my character. We live in a world that only wants to you believe in the bad news, racially, economically and culturally polarizing news, the truth is, our nations are always bends back towards fairness. We are not fully where we want to be, but i thank god almighty we are not where we used to be. We are always striving to be better. When we stumble, and we will, we pick ourselves back up and try again. We dont given to cancel culture or the radical and factually baseless belief that things are worse today than in the 1860s or the 1960s. We have work 0 to do. But i believe in the goodness of america. The promise that all men and all women are created equal. And if youre watching tonight, im betting you do, too. Over the past four years, we have made tremendous progress towards that promise. President trump built the most inclusive economy ever. 7million jobs created precovid 19. And two thirds of them went to women, African Americans, and hispanics. The first new major effort to tackle poverty in a generation, opportunity zones. We put hard earned tax dollars back in peoples pockets by cutting their taxes, especially for single parent households like the win i grew up in cutting single mothers taxes 70 on average. President trump supported these tax cuts for those single moms and other working families, and signed these policies into law and our nation is better off for it. So, im going to ask you the American People, not to simply look at what the candidates say but to look back at what theyve done. This election is about your future. And it is critical to paint a full picture of the records of donald trump and joe biden. Joe biden said if a black man didnt vote for him he wasnt actually back. Joe biden said black people are a monolithic community. Poor kids can be just as smart as white kids. And while his words are one thing, his actions take it to a whole new level. In 1994, biden led the charge on a crime bill that put millions of black americans behind bars. President trumps criminal Justice Reform law fixed many of the disparities biden created and made our system more fair and just for all americans. Joe biden also failed our nations historically black colleges and universities, heaping blame on them as they fought to ensure our young folks had access to Higher Education of the once again t clean up joe bidens mess, President Trump signed into law historic lehi funding for hbcus as well as a bill to give them permanent funding for the first time ever. And now joe biden wants to come for your pocket books. Unless of course you are a blue state millionaire, im serious. Thats one of their solutions for the pandemic. They want to take more money from your pocket and give it to manhattan elites and hollywood moguls so they get a tax break. Republicans however passed President Trumps once answer generation reform bill that lowered taxes for single moms, working families and those in need. So when it comes to what joe biden says he will do, look at his actions. Look at his policies. Look at what he already did and what he didnt do while he has been in washington for 47 years. Ladies and gentlemen, people dont always see those failures. Because they think we are having a policy debate on two sides of an issue. That is not what is happening. Our side is working on policy while joe bidens radical democrats are trying to permanently transform what it means to be an american. Make no mistake, joe biden and Kamala Harris want a cultural revolution, a fundamentally different america, if we let them they will turn our country into a socialist utopia and history taught us that path only leads to pain and misery especially for hard working people hoping to rise. Instead, we must focus on the promise of the american journey. I know that journey well. My grandfathers 99th birthday would have been tomorrow. Growing up, he had to cross the street if a white person was coming. He suffered the in dignity of being forced out of school as a third grader to pick cotton and he never learned to read or write. Yet he lived long enough to see his grandson become the first African American to be elected to both the United States house and the United States senate in the history of this country. Our family went from cotton to congress in one lifetime. And thats why i believe the next American Century can be better than the last. There are millions of families just like mine all across this nation full of potential seeking to live the American Dream. And im here tonight to tell you that supporting the republican ticket gives you the best chance of making that dream a reality. God bless you. And father, please continue blessing the United States of america. God bless. Senator tim scott wrapping up a long night of several speakers on the first night of the rnc. A number of personal stories from every day americans. Very similar to what we saw last week from the dnc. As well as a number of President Trumps staunchest supporters like donald trump, junior, his son as well as senator tim scotty, nikki haley foreign boz to the un as well as congressman jim jordan. Really the tone tonight towards the end was about painting a picture of what would happen if democrats would were elected and ran the country. Again, very similar to what we saw last week, each Party Painting a bleak picture if the other party did win in november a lot of attacks lobbed at Kamala Harris and joe biden, painting them as leftist socialists which we have herd. City want to fact check one point, many of the speakers talking about bidens desire to defund the police. The Democratic Party and joe biden want to do more to Fund Community policing and Police Departments, though there has been outcry from some members of the left that want to see Police Departments defunded, but joe biden does not support that cause. A lot was said tonight including a support of President Trumps administrations response to covid19. And their continued response, on 0 obviously democrats have attacked that poinsettia points out 170,000 americans have died to date. You are seeing a deep contrast between the two parties, in that second half of the rnc we started to see that positivity and optimism and tim scott wrapping tup as painting an american of opportunities if you vote for the Republican Party. So, we saw a lot of messages tonight, but tim scott putting a bow on it tonight. Earlier as promised President Trump did appear answer couple of prerecorded videos with First Responders related to covid19 as well as a number of americans that President Trump and his administration have helped save from other communities across the world where they had been held captive, julie. Yeah, i thought it was interesting hearing from senator tim scott of South Carolina to wrap up night one of the rnc. As you mentioned he talked a lot about hope, promise and opportunity. And he asked voters tonight not only to look at what the candidates say but also look at what they have done. I want to get your thoughts on night one, tonight we saw a lot of live speakers versus last week at the dnc it was pretty much all prerecorded speeches. Do you think well continue to see that live format moving forward with the rnc . I think President Trump had made it very clear that did he not like what he had saw last week, was highly produced segment with some live speakers. Hi rand herd that tonight in dc they had expected to include members in the crowd as to give these speakers some live response. But because of covid19 regulations they scrapped that crowd. Just again to give you another sense of how the pandemic has impacted campaigning in 2020. Thank you, frank. Go ahead. Yeah, having a little trouble hearing, im sorry. Okay. There we go.
