Party to take on Hillary Clinton in the general election. After cruz refusal to endorse me the one and only loustions, dobbs and in the moment we will have nigel farage join us and nigel farage was the man who was behind the uk exiting the eu and a lot of people talk about the similarities of the europeans they are and what the uk saw and what we are experiencing right here in america right now. Accepting the nomination given there were so many naysayers in the beginning and right up until last night ted cruz saying he is not the guy, i think it really y convention, every tradition of the party and has done so to great effect. Obviously he is going to accept the nomination here tonight, and i think we are going to see these changes continue. Trish Reince Priebus is speaking. Lets listen in. Thank you, thank you. To the people of cleveland we say thank you for your hospitality. [cheers and applause] and to my wife, sally and my son jack and daughter grace, i love you. Thank you for everything you do for me. I stand before this convention tonight as the chairman of the party that is carrying the torch of liberty. We are the party of the open door. To some people and some president s, america is just another country. Two republicans, america is the greatest nation on earth. [applause] we dont apologize for america. We celebrate america. [applause] at every level, republicans stand for aspiration and achievement. We stand for peace and prosperity. We stand for freedom and fairness. These values have inspired people the world over. Ever since we won our freedom two centuries ago, these values fueled the sacrifices for freedom in normandy in volusia. These values fight for equality in birminghaand doma. Republicay willing to fight for these that i use and lead american to the 21st century . [applause] you see the dirty little secret democrats dont want you to know is they are the same party doing the same old thing. Next week they are going to trot out the same old democrats were the same old message running the same old candidates. We are the party of new ideas and a changing and faster world than ever before. [applause] democrats depend on superdelegates and bureaucrats to sneak their agenda through the back door. We are the party of the grassroots. We honor what the voters say. Democrats want to put Labor Union Bosses in charge of our schools, limit our choices and feed our kids a steady diet of the leftwing propaganda. We know every child matters in the classroom is not an assembly line. Its time to give the power back to parents, embrace school choice, equipped our children with the skills they need for college, careers and life. [applause] democrats Want Health Care choices the hands of politicians. We Want Health Care choices in the hands of patients. Democrats want washington to impose a onesizefitsall policy on everybody. We say that independent people deserve individual solutions. Trish you are watching Reince Priebus addressed the convention. I want to go to kennedy who was on the floor and she has rep representative sean duffy. Kennedy a rising star in the Republican Party. A novel transition to politics. Ted cruz, its such a natural one. How much damage did ted cruz and due to the brand last night . I think this group is a great percentage who supported ted cruz in the primary. He didnt come out in support donald trump, the one who won the election. I think it disenfranchised a lot of voters on the floor and i think it damaged ted cruz for the future race. Kennedy he did very well in wisconsin. What did your delegates they . We want something to stick by it. When he made a promise it was no yet to say i will support the nominee as long as you dont go after my family or my wife. This is rough and tumble. Kennedy governor kasich has not come out to support donald trump. He has been completely insane at this convention. Dont convention. Dont you think yes and navigation is the governor of ohio to show up . I looked at scott walker last night. We love scott but the bigger man who comes out and says donald trump is going to be a heck of a lot better than Hillary Clinton, hes more in line with their conservative principles than hillary. Im going to fight for him and im going to work for him and thats what walker did for him and thats what every single one of these guys should do. All these conservatives are going to calm onboard because it only kerry. Kennedy thats the unifying factor however donald trump has a wonderful opportunity tonight. What is. What have to do to overcome the perception and the booing from last night . What does donald trump have to do tonight to seal the deal for undecided independent voters . I think its fantastic. He will have 25 to 35 million viewers. Not only is he going to unify the Republican Party hes going to take this opportunity to reach out to americans who are having a tough time economically people are having at that time saying why cant we support our Law Enforcement, why cant we defeat isis . He will talk to the americans who might have been left out of the process he wants to bring them into the trunk train. Kennedy he can do it with positivity, a lot of structure and dig applause lines that this crowd is waiting for. I think the brass knuckles will serve him well. What kind of politician can bring in this reality tv to 35 million folks watching . Is going to be cool. Kennedy you have made a transition. You and your wife did a great job speaking the other night. Thank you congressman. Thank you kennedy. Kennedy back to you trish. Trish thank you commerce meant daffy and kennedy. As Reince Priebus was speaking we heard the crowd shouting lock nski. Its good to see you again. We have been talking a lot about the economy being such an anemic stage and you look at the way the nation is struggling. We have all kinds of fronts not just on the domestic front which is the challenge in terms of black lives matter and what its done to racial sentiments here in this country but also our economic struggles. To secure the border for Legal Immigration and make sure we get people back to work and takeackf Small Business and i think and i know trump can do it. Trish we have taken two distinct paths right now lou hopefully one of Smaller Government and woke one of more regulation. If you look at some of the words coming out of elizabeth warrens mouth for example or Bernie Sanders mouth for example. Importance of Small Business im divided to hear you talk about Small Business because so many of our tech at its new Corporate America of slice of the economy importance lies but most of these jobs are created in Small Business and donald trump is talking about this and the issue of competence for this economy is criti we cant double make olympic corporations that are global. We have to drive his country forward with jobs, jobs and more jobs than the old way to do that is to reduce government bureaucracy. Trish the reality is you dont have an economy without the middleclass thriving. The middle class in order for Everything Else to grow so thats critical right now and there are two very distinct paths. Coming up we are going to hear from Silicon Valley legend peter gl. Hes breaking with the rest of Silicon Valley coming out in favor of donald trump and next right after this the leader of the british exit Movement Nigel Farage is here with similarities between what the uk just did getting out of europe and what the u. S. Is experiencing right now. We will see you back here live from cleveland, right after this. Under a Donald Trump Administration all lives matter [applause] trish welcome back everyone to the fox Network Coverage of the Republican National convention. We are seconds away from Silicon Valley legend peter thiel the cofounder of paypal. He will be talking about the economy and what needs to happen to get us out uk exit the eu. People never thought it was going to happen what do you know, it did, kind of like people saying donald trump would never be the republican nominee and here w Middle America has been living through. Thats the first time. The second one, we will see that the reason we run one they worked at both experts said the turnout would the 60 and it was 73 . A lot of people who had never. [inaudible] can trump reach the bluecollar vote in america and if he can. Trish in other words this crosses party lines. Lou the guy who made brexit possible in the uk but ive got to teller arrogance, it was a magnificent moment and i just have got to say thank you for that in complement you. In addition to of course the uk. Youted to do was scream abuse at me. Trish the sulaymaniya the similarities are striking produces that the entire world has said enough with the elite, enough with the people that dont understand what its like to struggle. Free market capitalism we have moved away with working men and women of the middleclass. Im from a generatio the country great, dignity and every job. This is an exciting moment. Butp in the polls and enjoying we can win. Trish the pendulum just swung so far in favor of political correctness, handouts etc. That the people are saying enough. We need to take our country back. So many people in western politics now dreaminto it. They dont want to take risks. Getting reelected. Trish i write everyone peter thiel the Billionaire Technology entrepreneur, there he is. I build companies i support people who are building new things from social networks to rocketships. Im not a politician but neither is donald trump. He is a builder and its time to rebuild america. [applause] where i work in Silicon Valley is hard to see where america has gone wrong. My industry has made a lot of progress in computers and in software and of course it has made a lot of money but Silicon Valley is a small place. Drive back to sacramento or even across the bridge to oakland and you wont see the same prosperity. Thats just how small it is. Across the country wages are flat. Americans get. Less today than 10 years ago but Health Care Health care and College Tuition costs more every year. Meanwhile wall street bankers inflate bubbles in everything from government bonds to Hillary Clinton speaking fees. [applause] our economy is broken. If you are watching me right now, you understand this better than any politician in washington d. C. And you know this isnt the dream we look forward to. Back when my parents came to america looking for that dream, they found it right here in cleveland. [applause] they brought me here as a 1yearold and this is where i became an american. [applause] opportunity was everywhere. My dad studied engineering at Case Western Reserve University just down the road from where we are now. Because in 1968, the worlds hightech capital wasnt just one city, all of america was hightech. Its hard to remember this but our government was once hightech too. When i moved to cleveland Defense Research was laying the foundation for the internet. The Apollo Program was just about to put a man on the moon and it was Neal Armstrong from right here in ohio. [applause] the future felt limitless but today our government is broken. Our nuclear bases still use floppy disks. Our newest fighter jets cant even fly in the rain and it would be kind to say the Government Software works poorly because much of the time it doesnt even work at all. That is a staggering decline for the country that completed the manhattan projects. We dont accept such incompetence in Silicon Valley and we must not accepted from our government. [applause] instead of going to mars we have invaded the middle east. We dont need to see Hillary Clintons deleted emails. Her incompetence is in plain sight. [applause] she pushed for a war in libya and today its a Training Ground for isis. On this most important issue, donald trump is right, its time to end the era of wars and rebuild our country. [applause] when i was a kid, it was about how to defeat the soviet union and we won. [applause] now we are told that the great debate is about who gets to use with bathroom. This is a distraction from our real problems. Who cares . [applause] of course, every american has a unique identity. I am proud to be a republican but most of all i am proud to be an american. [applause] [applause] [applause] [chanting] i dont pretend to agree with every plank in our partys platform but words only distract us from our economic decline and nobody in this race is being honest about it except donald trump. [applause] while it is fitting to talk about who we are, today its even more important to remember where we came from. For me, that is cleveland and the Bright Future it promised. When donald trump asked us to make America Great again he announced a return to the pass. He is running to lead us back to that Bright Future. Tonight, i urge all of my fellow americans to stand up and vote for donald trump. [applause] thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. [applause] trish all right, peter thiel the billionaire and the cofounder of paypal saying our economy is absolutely broken he kind ofharlie gasparino joining me as well as david asman. When you see wages going up silly nowhere for the last 2 have assessed over transgender bathrooms. Thats from an openly silicon the biggest celebrity here. I am a business guide. Lou and donald trish thank you charlie. You know lou this election is about the economy and security and to keep saying over again these two things go handinhand because you because you cannot have a thriving economy and thus you are secure as a nation. You cant be secure as a nation unless you have the money to spend in your military. He took on a very important theme peter i didnt realize that until he said that. We still use floppy disks. We have got to come to our senses. Failures of imagination and failures of responsibility and accountability. Trish think about it. Lou im also like talking about it, talking about creating jobs, talking about repatriating 2. 5 or more trillion dollars so that there can be investment in this economy. Senate clearly a party thatthe a and of liberal stereotype is that the Republican Party is close to anybody but straight white males. We look at them as an individual not based on his orientation and that is what the Republican Party, thats an interesting statement. Trish you make some great good points. We have a lot more up ahead. Donald trump is going to be on stage here tonight coming up. The whole theme here is make america one again for we talk a lot about border security. Still ahead order state lawmakers going to join us on trumps plan for that wall. Donald trump will build the wall. We need a leader who will protect our borders and enforce our laws because the nation without borders is a nation without laws, is no nation at all. Thank you. Ordering chinese food is a very predictable experience. I order b14. I get b14. No surprises. Buying business internet, on the other hand, can be a roller coaster White Knuckle thrill ride.

Now the only thing you dont know, is how youre gonna leave. Expedia. Technology that connects you to the people and places that matter. Trish here we are live in cleveland and moments away from ivanka and donald trump coming up on stage. Right now fox news has learned that Hillary Clinton has not yet made a call to her Vice President ial pick about her decision. The clock is ticking. Peter barnes is on the Convention Floor with the latest on that story. Xray precious that she is expected to make this announcement tomorrow ahead of a Campaign Event in florida. Sources saying that in fact her campaign is going to do this by email and sources saying that she has narrowed her pick down to one of three choices. Number one would be senator tim kaine the virginia, former governor of virginia and the former head of the Democratic National committee and second is tom vilsack the current agriculture secretary and former governor of iowa and the third is senator cory booker, africanamerican former mayor of newark, new jersey. Sources indicating that she may be leaning towards tim kaine but apparently we will find out tomorrow in an email blast from the Clinton Campaign which is doing it that way to keep it a secret and then this campaign cycle. Its very hard to do. Trish peter barnes, thank you very much. If you think about this and i will point out that kaine kaine recently push for deregulation in the banking industry. So peter said hes the favorite choice. Bill clinton apparently like senator ted came from virginia but he called for deregulation an good nominee which really isnt much news. We knew vilsack and we knew is trish let me go to david for a minute. Cory booker, this is a a guy that took a giant gift from Mark Zuckerberg and basically squandered it. When he was mayor of newark he took all that money and what good did it do . So you run the danger of more of the same economic and supposed that have governed places like chicago and newer coming into than white house. Its interesting you brought up that example, peter thiel was one of those Silicon Valley guys like zuckerberg who like to think outside the box. Thats how he created paypal. They think like this. Most of Silicon Valley cant stand donald trump but peter thiel is an exception and maybe that point is emphasized the fact that the people who do think outside the box are more the folks that are in the Republican Party right now than the democratic democratic party. Democratic party. All these vp picks these potential vp picks are such insiders, they just reek of insiders and they donald trum. Compared to donald trump everybodys an insider. Trish i would point out that they get a lot of celebrities. Russ places where its going to be difficult or more difficult now for her to go there with cory booker as opposed. Ill tell you being a white mshs struggling with that likability issue in the trustworthy issue and i is make the point that in some ways i dont think party matter so much. Its really who you trust to fix liberalish mike pence. Thats what he reminds me of. Trish all right everyone we are waiting on donald trump. He has a big speech and probably one of the biggest thus far in his life. They said he couldnt do it but he proved them all wrong. Here he is the republican nominee paid still ahead we will preview the speech with a former trump apprentice contestant. Youve wished upon it all year, and now its finally here.

Liberty mutual insurance. Trish welcome back everyone. We are here in cleveland and we are waiting on donald trump to speak. Hes going to be introduced by his daughter who is a pret a testament to him his family is and you think shes going to be able to break through morgan to women who feel he pushed her into business and education. Shes a successful businesswoman with her father so out of all the children i think its impressive. Im most looking forward to her tonight. Trish i think about his perception among some women and not really believing in and then i think about her and gosh when you think about his exwife ivana trump who was right alongside him in the company and built up the hotel in new york. His wife played a very vital role in building the business and of course his daughter and it strikes me lou that you cant be a guy who is a chauvinist and say yeah i want my wife to work in the company and have a big role and i want my daughter to do the same. Lou im tempted to say family,n children his young son baron, he has got terrific sun center at the got hers. They are accomplished. They are charming and intelligent. They are dutiful to the family and what in the world, why would anyone not create a political position around them . Trish or want to go to the floor right now because theres a woman who knows trump well. She was a former contestant one of my most favorite contestants on the apprentice. She is with kennedy on the Convention Floor and maybe kennedy can provide some insight it looks like perhaps they are not quite ready for us so we are going to go back and when they are. David asner is joining us as well. David what do you think . Does he have to get more women . Does he have to get more minorities at these going to win this thing . Either that or he has to get people to vote who have never voted before. Obviously the white male vote is the one that he feels most comfortable he that he has in his pocket but hes got to extend that beyond. Thats what peter thiel was about and thats why they are putting women in the trump family on display in such tornadic fashion and a lot of people suggested he may come out with female cabinet appointments or suggestions of appointments before the election to give an emphasis to women. But its a tough row to hoe it really is and its probably going to be a major challenge for the trump Campaign Going to the election. Trish i want to go down, the crowd is very lightly here dancing away to the music or they i want to go down to kennedy on the floor and she does have katrina with her. Kennedy. Kennedy hey katrisha im here with katrina campton. She works in the Trump Organization. You are might remember her from season one on the apprentice. She so impressed donald trump that she now is part of the real estate aspect of the company. He worked with ivanka and you worked with eric. What does will ivanka have to say tonight to boost her fathers chances of reaching out to Younger Voters . I think her main focus tonight would be women and women empowerment. Shes the epitome of class and grace and it comes very naturally to her. I am a Hispanic Women so thats what ive been hoping will be her main focus. Kennedy it was a crazy night last night with ted cruz not giving the endorsement before a the governor but now they have the opportunity to shine a spotlight back on the trumps. What do you think donald is going to say to this crowd to get them electrified and to translate that to viewers at an voters at home . Ive known trump for over a decade and one thing about him is hes able to invoke this passion that we are seeing in this country. We havent havent seen a centric in my opinion and i think you will continue to do more of that. He has involving his family great deal and is the oldschool values and i believe he will touch on those tonight as well as family and helping the country get back in order. Hillary is an extension of obama. People want change. They are sick of it. Kennedy they want change and they want trump. Trish to you in the studio. D i resist saying to you when you came back he served 10 years with mike pence in congress. Mr. Trump will make its its very good news for modern man. Trish you like you might take it. Aside from character and the traditional conservative record. He can be one of my pallbearers as far as im concerned. Trish lou how much of american politics is likeability . People want to feel like they can relate to you in some way. Was in that john kerrys problem and was in that mitt romneys problem cruz, or the exception to the rule. Mike pence comes across, and americans have seen a lot of him despite all the nonsense earlier around cruz. Hes engaging and smart a yeoman on one level and on the other he exudes confidence and poise around the subject matter and is politician or otherwise and he really held the audience and i was impressed with him. He gave one speech but ive got to tell you he did what he was expected to do. Trish one of the biggest problems is donald trump the disruptor coming in and shaking things up. Mike pence however might be the guy to can he work with you work with people in a way that is nuanc chair and that means he has to appeal has to appeal acrosstheboard politically. This is not something i personally dont appeal to the moderates too much. Mike was able to be as conservative as me and still have the utility in the position that made him acceptable to almost everyone. Say they will a compromise choice and he did a great jobtwn conservatism and antiestablishmentariani conservative. This man for the conservative birth personifies everything is good about america. He is as reasonable as anybody yet from the conservatives he is as radically committed a 71 in the group. He trish you think about it and if you wonder if hillary mr. Mr. Chance. You talk about the year of the outsider. We were talking to nigel for raj earlier, when you look of the uk they are so fed up with the people that think they are the smartest ones in the room, they want to go out there and take a risk for someone unknown. Lou did she miss her time and forgive me we are just minutes away from donald trump so i have to leave it there. He is going to be addressing the rnc, the republican nominee for president. They said he couldnt do it and he said you bet i can and here he is on stage in a few minutes. Dont go anywhere. Keep it on fox business for Donald Trumps biggest speech thus far of his life on a very big night here in cleveland, ohio. An inspiration. A wild whatif. So scientists went to work. They examined 87 different protein structures. Had 12 years of setbacks and breakthroughs, 4,423 sleepless nights, and countless trips back to the drawing board. At first they were told no, well. Maybe, and finally yes. Then it was 36 clinical trials, 8,500 patient volunteers, and the hope of millions. And so after it became a medicine, someone who couldnt be cured, could be. Me. Or building the best houses in town. Or becoming the next highlyunlikely dotcom superstar. . Trish live from cleveland, ohio. The Republican National convention. Were waiting on donald trump, his big speech tonight at the rnc. His daughter ivanka trump will be introducing him. Im here with lou dobbs and Charlie Gasparino. Lou, shes a wharton grad, a business and wife who is just extraordinarily talented. Trish and also apparently has . And one of the things thats interesting that they kept harping on, according to the people i spoke with, was loyalty to donald. They obviously love and admire theyre old man. Trish continued pride and loyalty, the issue with the speechwriters and her having written down some of the notes that Melania Trump read to her from Michelle Obamas speech, and she came forgnation, he saie a vital member of this team, and thats an interesting kind of loyalty, lou, that i dont think you see in politics a whole lot. Media would have taken anything would it be a hiccup whatever, thats a very important, very important understanding of a fundamental precip that modern american politics. S melania gave a good speech. I dont care what she was reading, she wasnt there to th and no one in this room, even though everybody has seen the packaged speech, i dont think anybody knows what hes going to do, how he will enter. How he will take the stage. The reception, and where hes going to leave it. Trish part of what makes him exciting, right, as a candidate . Longtime democrats i know that they cant stop watching him, they want to see what hes going to do next, and you know what . Hes kind of growing on them. T hes got to take this to another level, i think rolling red meat. You never know, hes a show man. Trish its been incredible, because there are so many people who said in the very know he wasnt. Lou i definitely wasnt. Trish hes touching on something in america, touching a chord. People are feeling a sense of one with him that you dont always see in politics. So it is going to be a very big night here in cleveland. Get ready for it, folks. Donald trump is speaking next. Announcer live from the 2016 Republican National convention in cleveland, ohio, here is trish regan. Trish live from cleveland, ohio, the Republican National convention. Minutes from now, ivanka trump, Donald Trumps eldest daughter is going to be introducing her father on the stage. Her father, the man everybody thought would be yesterdays news is now the republican nominee for the president of the United States. Welcome, everyone. To the fourth night of the Republican National convention here in cleveland. I am trish regan. Tonights theme, make america one again. Business allstars, lou dobbs and Charlie Gasparino. You know, lou, it is a very big night as we have been saying over and over again. You can feel the energy, the momentum in the room. People are very excited. It is very, very loud. What are your expectations . Lou my expectations are for a great culmination to the most very little of this, even though choreographed, was carried out as expected from the fact is this convention has introduced donald trump, which is its purpose, and his family, to america. Tonight, ivanka, his daughter, will introduce him, and hes critically important, the impression he makes. He is now riding in the polls, within the margin of error, and all of the national polls, the real clear politics average is in there, and the battleground states, hes doing great. By the way, hes got to broaden his appeal tonight, too. Lets be clear about that. Trish broaden his appeal. What do you mean by that . Cant be just the people he brought in. Trish ivanka on stage, getting a very warm welcome from the crowd. Lets listen to her now. [cheers and applause] good evening. We love you, ivanka thank you. One year ago i introduced my father when he declared his candidacy. In his own way and through his own sheer force of will, he sacrificed greatly to enter the political arena as an outsider and he prevailed against the field of 16 very talented competitors. [applause] for more than a year, donald trump has been the peoples champion, and tonight he is the peoples nominee. [cheers and applause] like many of my fellow millennials, i do not consider myself categorically republican or democrat. More than party affiliation, i vote based on what i believe is right for my family and for my country. Sometimes its a tough choice. That is not the case this time. As the proud daughter of your nominee, i am here to tell you that this is the moment, and donald trump is the person, to make America Great again [cheers and applause] trump trump trump trump real change, the kind we have not seen in decades is only going to come from outside the system, and its only going to come from a man who has spspent his entire life doing what others said could not be done. My father is a fighter. When the primaries got tough and they were tough, he did what any great leader does. He dug deeper. Worked harder. Got better and became stronger. [applause] i have seen him fight for his family. I have seen him fight for his employees. I have seen him fight for his company, and now i am seeing him fight for our country. [cheers and applause] its been the story of his life, and more recently the spirit of his campaign. Its also a prelude to reaching the goal that unites us all when this party and better still this country knows what it is like to win again. [cheers and applause] if its possible to be famous, and yet not really well known, that describes the father who raised me. In the same office in trump tower where we now work together, i remember playing on the floor by my fathers desk, constructing miniature buildings with legos and erector sets while he did the same with concrete, steel and glass. My father taught my siblings and me the importance of positive values and a strong ethical compass. He showed us how to be resilient. How to deal with challenges and how to strive for excellence in all that we do. He taught us that there is nothing we cannot accomplish if we marry vision and passion with an enduring work ethic. [cheers and applause] one of my fathers greatest talents is his ability to see the potential in people before they see it in themselves. It was like that for us too growing up. He taught us that potential vanishes into nothing without effort. And that like him, we each had a responsibility to work not just for ourselves, but for the betterment of the world around us. [cheers and applause] over the years, on too many occasions to count, i saw my father tear stories out of the newspaper, about people whom he had never met, who were facing some injustice or hardships. Hed write a note to his assistant in signature black felt tip pen and requested the person be found and invited to trump tower to meet with him. He would talk to them and draw upon his Extensive Network to find them a job or give them a break. They would leave his office as people often do after meeting with donald trump, feeling that life could be great again. [applause] throughout my entire life, i have witnessed his empathy and generosity towards others, especially those who are suffering. It is just his way of being in your corner when youre down. My father not only has the strength and ability necessary to be our next president , but also the kindness and compassion that will enable him to be the leader that this country needs. [applause] my father has a sense of fairness that touches every conviction hes hold. I worked alongside of him for more than a decade at the Trump Organization and ive seen how he operates as a leader, making important decisions that shape careers and that change lives. Ive learned a lot about the world from walking construction jobs by his side. When run properly, construction sites are true meritocracies. Confidence in the Building Trades is easy to spot and incompetence is impossible to hide. [applause] these sites are also incredible melting pots gathering people from all walks of life and uniting them to work towards a single mission. There have always been men of all backgrounds and ethnicities on my fathers job sites, and long before it was common place, you also saw women. [cheers and applause] my father values talent. He recognizes real knowledge and skill when he finds it. He is color blind and gender neutral. He hires the best person for the job, period. [applause] words and promises, no matter how visionary they sound, will only get you so far. In our business, youre not a builder unless youve got a building to show for it. Or in my fathers case, city skylines. [applause] most people strive their entire lives to achieve Great Success in a single industry. My father has succeeded in many, on the highest level, and on a global scale. One of the reasons he has strived as an entrepreneur is because he listens to everyone. Billionaire executives dont usually ask the people doing the work for their opinion of the work. My father is an exception. On every one of his projects, youll see him talking to the super, the painter, the engineers, the electricians, hell ask for their feedback, if he thinks something should be done differently or could be done better. When donald trump is in charge, all that counts is ability, effort and excellence. [cheers and applause] this has long been the philosophy at the Trump Organization. At my fathers company, there are more female than male executives. [cheers] women are paid equally for the work that we do, and when a woman becomes a mother, she is supported, not shut out. [cheers and applause] women represent 46 of the total u. S. Labor force, and 40 of american households have female primary breadwinners. In 2014, women made 83 cents for every dollar earned by a man. Single women without children earned 94 cents for each dollar earned by a man, whereas married mothers made only 77 cents. As researchers have noted, gender is no longer the factor creating the greatest wage discrepancy in this country. Motherhood is. As president my father will change the labor laws put in place at a time women were not a significant portion of the workforce, and he will focus on making quality child care affordable and accessible for all. [cheers and applause] as a mother myself, of three young children, i know how hard it is to work while raising a family, and i also know that im far more fortunate than most. American families need relief. Policies that allow women with children to thrive should not be novelties, they should be the norm. Politicians talk about wage equality, but my father has made it a practice at his companies throughout his entire career. [cheers and applause] he will fight for equal pay, for equal work, and i will fight for this too, right alongside of him. [cheers and applause] trump trump trump americans today need an economy that permits people to rise again. A Trump Presidency will turn the economy around and restore the Great American tradition of giving each new generation hope for brighter opportunities than those of the generation that came before. In donald trump, you have a candidate who knows the difference between wanting something done, and making it happen. When my father says that he will build a tower, keep an eye on the skyline. Floor by floor a soaring structure will appear, usually record setting in its height and iconic in design. Real people are hired to do real work. Vision becomes reality. When my father says that he will make America Great again, he will deliver. [cheers and applause] we have a chance this year to reclaim our heritage of a country that dreams big and makes the impossible happen. Fortunately, donald trump is incapable of thinking small. When i was a child, my father always told me, ivanka, if youre going to be thinking anyway, you might as well think big. [laughter] as president , my father will take on the bold and worthy fights. He will be unafraid to set lofty goals and he will be relentless in his determination to achieve them. To people all over america, i say, when you have my father in your corner, you will never again have to worry about being let down. He will fight for you all the time, all the way, every time. [cheers and applause] maybe its the developer in him, but donald trump cannot stand to see empty main streets and boarded up factories. He cant bear the injustice of College Graduates who are crippled by student debt, and mothers who cant afford the cost of the child care to return to work to better the lives of their families. Other politicians see these hardships, see the unfairness of it all, and i say i feel for you. Only my father will say ill fight for you. [cheers and applause] so hard working men and women of this country identify with my father. He is tough, and he is persevering. He is honest, and hes real. Hes an optimist, and hes a relentless believer in america and all of her potential. He loves his family, and he loves his country with his heart and his soul. Politicians ask to be judged by their promises, not their results. I ask you to judge my father by his results. Judge his values by those hes instilled in his children. Judge his competency by the towers hes built. The companies hes founded and tens of thousands of jobs hes created. Hes the single most qualified person to serve as chief executive of an 18 trillion economy. [cheers and applause] my father will call upon the best and brightest people from all steers of industry and sides of the aisle. A new set of thinkers to face existing problems with fresh perspective and brave new solutions. Come january 17, all things will be possible again. We can hope and dream and think big again. No one has more faith in the American People than my father. He will be your greatest, your truest and your most loyal champion. [cheers and applause] this is the fighter, thedoer, that you have chosen as your nominee. In ways no one expected, this moment in the life of our country has defined a mission and given it to an extraordinary man. He is ready to see it all the way through, to speak to every man, and every woman, of every background, in every part of this great country, to earn your trust and to earn your vote. Hearing that and more from me a long time ago, ive loved and respected him my entire life, and i could not be more proud tonight to present to you and to all of america my father and our next president , donald j. Trump [cheers and applause] thank you. Thank you. Who do we want . Trump who do we want . Trump who do we want . Trump who do we want . Trump thank you. Thank you very much. Friends, delegates, and fellow americans, i humbly and gratefully accept your nomination for the presidency of the United States. [cheers and applause] [cheers and applause] usa usa usa usa usa who would have believed that when we started this journey on june 16th, last year, we, and i say we, because we are a team, would have received almost 14 million votes, the most in the history of the Republican Party, and that the Republican Party would get 60 more votes than it received eight years ago. Who would have believed this . Who would have believed this . [cheers and applause] the democrats, on the other hand, received 20 fewer votes than they got four years ago. Not so good. Not so good. [applause] together, we will lead our party back to the white house, and we will lead our country back to safety, prosperity and peace. [cheers and applause] we will be a country of generosity and warmth, but we will also be a country of law and order. [cheers] our convention occurs at a moment of crisis for our nation. The attacks on our police and the terrorism of our cities threaten our very way of life. Any politician who does not grasp this danger is not fit to lead our country. [cheers and applause] americans watching this address tonight have seen the recent images of violence in our streets, and the chaos in our communities. Many have witnessed this violence personally. Some have even been its victims. I have a message for all of you, the crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon, and i mean very soon, come to an end. [cheers and applause] beginning on january 20th of 2017, safety will be restored. [cheers and applause] the most basic duty of government is to defend the lives of its own citizens. Any government that fails to do so is a government unworthy to lead. It is finally time for a straightforward assessment of the state of our nation. [applause] i will present the facts plainly and honestly. Bring it, donald [ applause ] we cannot afford to be so politically correct anymore [cheers and applause] so if you want to hear the corporate spin, the carefully crafted lies and the media myths, the democrats are holding their Convention Next week. Go there. But here, at our convention, there will be no lies. We will honor the American People with the truth and nothing else. [cheers and applause] usa usa these are the facts, decades of progress made in bringing down crime are now being reversed by this administrations rollback of criminal enforcement. Homicides last year increased by 17 in americas 50 largest cities. Thats the largest increase in 25 years. [booing] in our nations capitals, killings have risen by 50 . [booing] theyre up nearly 60 in nearby baltimore. In the president s hometown of chicago, more than 2,000 people have been the victims of shootings this year alone, and almost 4,000 have been killed in the chicago area since he took office. [booing] the number of Police Officers killed in the line of duty has risen by almost 50 , compared to this point last year. Nearly 180,000 illegal immigrants, with criminal records, ordered deported from our country, are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens. [booing] the number of new illegal immigrant families who have crossed the border so far this year, already exceeds the entire total from 2015. They are being released by the tens of thousands into our communities with no regard for the impact on Public Safety or resources. [booing] one such border crosser was released and made his way to nebraska. There, he ended the life of an innocent young girl named sarah rudin. She was 21 years old and was killed the day after graduating from college with a 4. 0 grade point average. Number one in her class. Her killer was then released a second time, and he is now a fugitive from the law. Ive met sarahs beautiful family. But to this administration, their amazing daughter, was just one more American Life that wasnt worth protecting. No more. [booing] one more child to sacrifice on the order and on the altar of open borders. What about our economy . Again, i will tell you the plain facts that have been edited out of your nightly news and morning newspaper. Nearly 4 in 10 africanAmerican Children are living in poverty, while 58 of africanamerican youth are now not employed. Two million more latinos are in poverty today than when president obama took his oath of office less than eight years ago. [booing] another 14 Million People have left the workforce entirely. Household incomes are down more than 4,000 since the year 2000. Thats 16 years ago. Our trade deficit in goods reached nearly, think of this, think of this, our trade deficit is 8 800 billion. Think of that. 800 billion last year alone. Were going to fix that [cheers and applause] trump trump trump the budget is no better. President obama has almost doubled our National Debt to more than 19 trillion and growing, and yet, what do we have to show for it . Our roads and bridges are falling apart. Our airports are third world condition, and 43 million americans are in food stamps. Now, let us consider the state of affairs abroad. Not only have our citizens endured domestic disaster, but theyve lived through one international humiliation after another one after another we all remember the images of our sailors being forced to their knees by their iranian captors at gunpoint. [booing] this was just prior to the signing of the iran deal, which gave back to iran 150 billion and gave us absolutely nothing [booing] it will go down in history as one of the worst deals ever negotiated. [booing] another humiliation came when president obama drew a red line in syria, and the whole world knew it meant absolutely nothing. In libya, our consulate, the symbol of american prestige around the globe was brought down in flames. America is far less safe, and the world is far less stable than when obama made the decision to put Hillary Clinton in charge of americas foreign policy. [booing] lets defeat her in november, okay . [cheers and applause] i am certain that it was a decision that president obama truly regrets. Her bad instincts, and her bad judgment, something pointed out by Bernie Sanders are what caused so many of the disasters unfolding today. Lets review the record. [cheers and applause] in 2009, prehillary, isis was not even on the map. Libya was stable, egypt was peaceful, iraq was seeing really a big, big reduction in violence, iran was being choked by sanctions, syria was somewhat under control. After four years of Hillary Clinton, what do we have . Isis has spread across the region and the entire world. Libya is in ruins and our ambassador and his staff were left helpless to die at the hands of savage killers. Egypt was turned over to the radical Muslim Brotherhood forcing the military to retake control. Iraq is in chaos. Iran is on the path to nuclear weapons. Syria is engulfed in a civil war, and a refugee crisis now threatens the west. After 15 years of wars in the middle east, after trillions of dollars spent and thousands of lives lost, the situation is worse than it has ever been before. This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton. Death, destruction, terrorism and weakness [applause] but Hillary Clintons legacy does not have to be americas legacy. The problems we face now, poverty and violence at home, war and destruction abroad, will last only as long as as we continue relying on the same politicians who created them in the first place. [applause] a change in leadership is required to produce a change in outcomes. [cheers and applause] tonight i will share with you my plan for action for america. The most important difference between our plan and that of our opponents is that our plan will put America First [cheers and applause] usa usa usa usa usa . Americanism, not globalism will be our credo as long as we are led by politicians who will not put America First, then we can be assured that other nations will not Treat America with respect, the respect that we deserve [cheers and applause] the American People will come first once again [cheers and applause] my plan will begin with safety at home, which means safe neighborhoods, secure borders and protection from terrorism there. Can be no prosperity without law and order [cheers and applause] on the economy, i will outline reforms to add millions of new jobs and trillions in new wealth, that can be used to rebuild america. [cheers] a number of these reforms that i will outline tonight will be opposed by some of our nations most powerful special interests. Thats because these interests have rigged our political and Economic System for their exclusive benefit. Believe me, its for their benefit. [applause] big business, elite media and major donors are lining up behind the campaign of my opponent because they know she will keep our rigged system in place. [booing] they are throwing money at her because they have total control over every single thing she does. She is their puppet, and they pull the strings. [applause] that is why Hillary Clintons message is that things will never change. Never, ever. [laughter] my message is that things have to change, and they have to change right now [cheers and applause] every day, i wake up determined to deliver a better life for the people all across this nation that have been ignored, neglected and abandoned. I have visited the laidoff factory workers and the communities crushed by our horrible and unfair trade deals. These are the forgotten men and women of our country, and they are forgotten, but theyre not going to be forgotten long. [cheers and applause] these are people who work hard but no longer have a voice. I am your voice. [cheers and applause] i have embraced crying mothers who have lost their children because our politicians put their personal agendas before the national good. I have no patience for injustice. Usa usa usa usa usa [cheers] how great are our police and how great is cleveland . [cheers] thank you. I have no patience for injustice. No tolerance for government incompetence of which there is so much. No sympathy for leaders who fail their citizens. When innocent people suffer because our political system lacks the will or the courage or the basic decency to enforce our laws, or still worse, has sold out to some corporate lobbyists for cash. I am not able to look the other way, and i wont look the other way. [cheers and applause] and when a secretary of state illegally stores her emails on a private server, deletes 33,000 of them so the authorities cant see her crime, puts our country at risk, lies about it in every different form and faces no consequence, i know that corruption has reached a level like never, ever before in our country [cheers and applause] when the fbi director says that the secretary of state was extremely careless and negligent in handling our classified secrets, i also know that these terms are minor compared to what she actually did. They were just used to save her from facing justice for her terrible, terrible crimes. [applause] in fact, her single greatest accomplishment may be committing such egregious crime, and getting away with it, especially when others, who have done far less, have paid so dearly. [cheers and applause] when that same secretary of state rakes in millions and millions of dollars trading access and favors to special interests and foreign powers, i know the time for action has come. [cheers and applause] i have joined the political arena so that the powerful can no longer beat up on people who cannot defend themselves. [cheers and applause] nobody knows the system better than me. [laughter] [applause] which is why i alone can fix it. [cheers] i have seen firsthand how the system is rigged against our citizens just like it was rigged against Bernie Sanders. He never had a chance. Never had a chance. But his supporters will join our movement because we will fix his biggest single issue, trade deals that strip our country of its jobs and strip us of our wealth as a country. [cheers] millions of democrats will join our movement because we are going to fix the system so it works fairley and justly for each and every american. [cheers and applause] in this cause, i am proud to have, at my side, the next Vice President of the United States, governor mike pence of indiana [cheers and applause] and a great guy. We will bring the same economic success to america that mike brought to indiana, which is amazing. [cheers and applause] hes a man of character and accomplishment. Hes the man for the job. The first task for our new administration will be to liberate our citizens from the crime and terrorism and lawlessness that threatens our communities. America was shocked to its core when our Police Officers in dallas were so brutally executed. Immediately after dallas, weve seen continued threats in violence against our Law Enforcement officials. Law officers have been shot or killed in recent days. In georgia, missouri, wisconsin, kansas, michigan and tennessee. [booing] on sunday, more police were gunned down in baton rouge, louisiana. Three were killed and three were very, very badly injured. An attack on Law Enforcement is an attack on all americans. [cheers] i have a message to every last person threatening the peace on our streets, and the safety of our police. When i take the oath of office next year, i will restore law and order to our country. [cheers and applause] believe me. Believe me. I will work with and appoint the best and brightest prosecutors and Law Enforcement officials to get the job properly done. [applause] in this race for the white house, i am the law and order candidate. [cheers and applause] the irresponsible rhetoric of our president who has used the pulpit of the presidency to divide us by race and color has made america a more dangerous environment than frankly i have ever seen and anybody in this room has ever watched or seen. This administration has failed americas inner cities. Remember, it has failed americas inner cities. Its failed them on education. Its failed them on jobs. Its failed them in crime. Its failed them in every way and on every single level. When i am president , i will work to ensure that all of our kids are treated equally and protected equally. Every action i take i will ask myself, does this make better for Young Americans in baltimore, in chicago, in detroit, in ferguson who have really, in every way, folks, the same right to live out their dreams as any other child in america . Any other child. [cheers and applause] to make life safe for all of our citizens, we must also address the growing threats we face from outside the country. We are going to defeat the barbarians of isis and were going to defeat them fast [cheers and applause] upon once again, france is the victim of brutal islamic terrorism. Men, women and children viciously mowed down, lives ruined. Families ripped apart. A nation in mourning. The damage and devastation that can be inflicted by islamic radicals has been proven over and over. At the world trade center, at an office party in san bernardino. At the boston marathon. At a military recruiting center in chattanooga, tennessee, and many, many other locations. Only weeks ago in orlando, florida, 49 wonderful americans were savagely murdered by an islamic terrorist. This time the terrorists targeted lgbtq community. No good. And were going to stop it. [cheers and applause] as your president , i will do everything in my power to protect our lgbtq citizens from the violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology believe me. [cheers and applause] and i have to say, as a republican, it is so nice to hear you cheering for what i just said. Thank you. Thank you. [cheers and applause] to protect us from terrorism, we need to focus on three things. We must have the best, absolutely the best gathering of intelligence anywhere in the world. The best. We must abandon the failed policy of nation building and regime change that Hillary Clinton pushed in iraq, in libya, in egypt and in syria. Instead, we must work with all of our allies who share our goal of destroying isis and stamping out islamic terrorism and doing it now, doing it quickly. Were going to win, were going to win fast [cheers and applause] this includes working with our greatest ally in the region, the state of israel. [cheers and applause] recently, i have said that nato was obsolete, because it did not properly cover terror. And also, that many of the member countries were not paying their fair share. As usual, the United States has been picking up the cost. [booing] shortly thereafter, it was announced that nato will be setting up a new program in in order to combat terrorism, a true step in the right direction. [applause] [applause] lastly and very importantly, we Must Immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised right terrorism until such time as proven that he mechanisms have been put in place. We dont want them in our country. [applause] [applause] my opponent has called for a radical 550 increase in syrian, think of this, think of this. This is not believable but that is what is happening. A 550 increase in Syrian Refugees on top of the existing massive refugee flows coming into our country already. Under the leadership of president obama. [booing] she proposes this despite the fact that there is no way to screen these refugees in order to find out who they are or where they come from. I only want to admit individuals into our country who will support our values and love our people. [applause] [applause] anyone who endorses hatred or oppression is not welcome in our country and never ever will be. Decades of records immigration have reduced lower wages and higher unemployment for our citizens, especially for africanamerican and latino workers. We are going to have an immigration system that works but one that works for the American People. [applause] on monday, we heard from three parents whose children were killed by illegal immigrants. Maryanne mendoza, sabina and my friend jamiel shaw. They are just three brave representatives of many thousands who have suffered so greatly. Of all my travels in this country, nothing has affected me more, nothing even close to have to tell you that the time i have spent with the mothers and fathers who have lost their children to violence, spilling across our borders which we can solve. We have to solve it. [applause] [chanting] these families have no special interest to represent. There are no demonstrators to protect them and certainly none to protest on their behalf. My opponent will never meet with them or share in their pain, believe me. Instead, my opponent wants sanctuary cities. But where was the sanctuary for kate steinle . [applause] where was the sanctuary for the children of maryanne and sabine and jamiel . Where was the sanctuary for all of the, its so sad to be even talking about it because we can solve this problem so quickly, where was the sanctuary for all of the other americans who have been so brutally murdered and who have suffered so, so horribly . These wounded American Families have been alone but they are not alone any longer. [applause] [chanting] tonight, this candidate and the whole nation stand in their corner to support them, to send them our love and to pledge in their honor that we will save countless more families from suffering the same awful faith. [applause] we are going to build a great border wall to stop ilLegal Immigration. To stop the gangs and the violence and to stop the drugs from pouring into our communities. [cheering] [applause] i have been honored to receive the endorsement of americas Border Patrol agents. [applause] and will work directly with them to protect the integrity of our lawful, lawful immigration system, lawful. [applause] by ending catch and release on the border we will and the cycle of human smuggling and violence. Illegal border crossings deal go down. We will stop it. It wont be happening very much anymore, believe me. [applause] piece will be restored by enforcing the rules for millions our laws will finally receive the respect that they deserve. [applause] tonight, i want every american whose demands for immigration security have been denied, and every politician who has denied them, to listen very very closely to the words i am about to say. On january 20 of 2017, the day i take the oath of office [cheers and applause] americans will finally wake up in a country where the laws of the United States are enforced. [applause] we are going to be considerate and compassionate to everyone, but my greatest compassion will be for our own struggling citizens. [cheers and applause] [chanting] usa, usa, usa. Usa, usa, usa. [cheers and applause] my plan is the exact opposite of the radical and dangerous immigration policy of Hillary Clinton. Americans want relief from uncontrolled immigration, which is what we have now. Communities want relief, it yet Hillary Clinton is proposing massive amnesty, Mass Immigration and mass lawlessness. [booing] her plan will overwhelm your schools and hospitals, further reduce your jobs and wages and make it harder for recent immigrants to escape through tremendous cycle of poverty that they are going through right now and make it almost impossible for them to join the middle class. [applause] i have a different vision for our workers. It begins with a new fair trade policy that protects our jobs and stands up to countries that cheat, of which there are many. [applause] it has been a signature message of my campaign from day one and it will be a signature feature of my presidency from the moment i take the oath of office. [applause] i have made billions of dollars in business making deals. Now i am going to make our country rich again. [applause] using the greatest Business People in the world, which our country has, i am going to turn our bad trade agreements into great trade agreements. [cheers and applause] america has lost nearly one third of its manufacturing jobs since 1997, following the enactment of disastrous. Back trade deal supported by bill and Hillary Clinton. Remember, it was bill clinton who signed nafta, one of the worst economic deals ever made by our country or frankly any other country. Never, ever again. [applause] i am going to bring back our jobs to ohio and pennsylvania and new york and michigan and all of america, and i am not going to let Companies Move to other countries, firing their employees along the way without consequence. Its not going to happen anymore. [applause] my opponent on the other hand has supported virtually every trade agreement that has been destroying our middle class. She has supported nafta and she has supported chinas entrance into the world trade organization, another one of her husbands colossal mistakes and disasters. She supported the jobkilling trade deal with south korea. She supported the transpacific partnership, which will not only destroy our manufacturing but it will make america subject to the rulings of foreign governments and its not going to happen. [cheers and applause] i pledge to never sign any trade agreement that hurts our workers or that diminishes our freedom and our independence. We will never, ever sign bad trade deals. America first, again America First. [applause] instead, i will make individual deals with individual countries. No longer will we enter into these massive transactions with many countrieies that are thousands of pages long and which no one from our country even reads or understands. [applause] we are going to enforce all trade i wish and against any country that cheats. [applause] this includes stopping chinas outrageous theft of intellectual property along with their illegal product dumping and their devastating currency manipulation. The day are the greatest currency manipulators, ever. A horrible trade agreement with china and many others will be totally renegotiated. That includes renegotiating nafta to get a much better deal for america and will walk away if we dont get that kind of a deal. [applause] our country is going to start elbowing and making things again [applause] next comes the reform of our tax laws, regulations and energy rules. While Hillary Clinton plans a massive, and i mean massive, tax increase, i have proposed the largest tax reduction of any candidate who has run for president this year, democrat or republican. [applause] middle income americans and businesses will experience profound relief and taxes will be greatly simplified for everyone, i mean everyone. [applause] america is one of the highest taxed nations in the world. Reducing taxes will cause new companies and new jobs to come roaring back into our country. Believe me, it will happen and it will happen fast. [applause] then we are going to deal with the issue of regulation. One of the greatest job killers of them all. Excessive regulation is costing our country as much as 2 trillion a year and we will end it very, very quickly. [applause] we are going to lift the restrictions on the production of american energy. [applause] this will produce more than 20 trillion in job creating Economic Activity over the next four decades. My opponent on the other hand wants to put the great minors and the great steelworkers of our country out of work and out of business. That will never happen with donald j. Trump as president. Our steelworkers and our miners are going back to work again. [applause] [chanting] with these new economic policies, trillions and trillions of dollars flowing into our country. This new wealth will improve the quality of life for all americans. We will build the roads, highways, bridges, tunnels, airports and the railways of tomorrow. This in turn will create millions more jobs. [applause] we will rescue kids from failing schools by helping their parents send them to a safe school of their choice. [applause] my opponent would rather protect your bureaucrats then serve American Children and thats what she is doing and that is what she has done. We will read peel and replace disasters obamacare. [cheers and applause] you will be able to choose your own doctor again. [applause] and we will fix tsa at the airports which is a total disaster. [applause] [chanting] usa, usa, usa. Thank you, thank you. We are going to work with all of our students who are drowning in debt, to take the pressure off these young people just starting out in their adult lives. [applause] tremendous problems. We will completely rebuild our depleted military. [applause] and the countries that we are protecting at a massive costs to us will be asked to pay their fair share. [applause] we will take care of our great veterans like they have never been taking care of before. [applause] my justreleased tenpoint plan has received tremendous veteran support. We will guarantee those who serve this country will be able to visit the doctor or the hospital of their choice without waiting five days in line and dying. [applause] my opponent dismissed the va scandal, one more sign of how out of touch she really is. We are going to ask every Department Head in government to provide a list of wasteful spending on projects that we can eliminate in my first 100 days. [applause] the politicians have talked about this for years but im going to do it. [applause] [chanting] we are going to appoint justices of the United States Supreme Court who will uphold our law and our constitution. [applause] [applause] the replacement of our beloved Justice Scalia will be a person of similar views, principles and judicial philosophy, very important. [applause] this will be one of the most important issues decided by this election. My opponent wants to essentially abolish the 2nd amendment. I on the other hand received there early and strong endorsement of the National Rifle association. [applause] and will protect the rights of all americans to keep their families safe. [applause] at this moment, i would like to thank the evangelical and religious community, because i will tell you what, the support that they have giveven me, and m not sure i totally deserve it. Has been so amazing and has had such a big reason for me being here tonight. [applause] its true, so true. [applause] they have much to contribute to our politics yet our laws prevent you from speaking your minds from your own pulpits. An amendment pushed by Lyndon Johnson many years ago threatens religious institutions with the loss of their tax exempt status if they openly advocate their political views. Their voice has been taken away. I am going to work very hard to repeal that language and to protect free speech for all americans. [applause] [chanting] we can accomplish these great things and so much more. All we need to do is start believing in ourselves and in our country again, start believing. [applause] it is time to show the whole world that america is back, bigger and better and stronger than ever before. [applause] in this journey, i am so lucky to have at my side my wife melania and my wonderful children. [applause] if im correct, eric tiffany and baron, you will always be my greatest source of pride and joy , and by the way melania and ivanka, did they do a job . [applause] my dad, fred trump was the smartest and hardest working man i ever knew. I wonder sometimes what he would say if he were here to see this and to see me tonight. [applause] it is because of him that i learned from my youngest age to respect the dignity of work and the dignity of working people. [applause] he was a guy most comfortable in the company of bricklayers and carpenters and electricians, and i have a lot of that in me also. I love those people. [i love those people. [applause] then there is my mother, mary. She was strong but also warm and fairminded. She was a truly great mother. She was also one of the most honest and charitable people that i have ever known, and a great, great judge of character. She could pick them out from anywhere. [applause] to my sisters, maryanne and elizabeth, my brother, robert and my late brother, fred, i will always give you my love. You are most special to me. [applause] i have had a truly great life in business, but now my sole and exclusive mission is to go to work for our country, to go to work for you. Its time to deliver a victory for the American People. We dont win any more but we are going to start winning again. [applause] but to do that, we must break free from the petty politics of the past. America is a nation of believers, dreamers and strivers that is being led by a group of censors, critics and cynics. Remember, all of the people telling you, you cant have the country you want are the same people that wouldnt stand i mean they said trump doesnt have a chance of being here tonight. Not a chance. The same people. [applause] we love defeating those people, dont we . Dont we love defeating those people . [cheers and applause] love it, love it, love it. No longer can we rely on those same people. In the media and politics who will say anything to keep our rigged system in place. Instead, we must choose to believe in america. History is watching us now. We dont have much time, but history is watching. Its waiting to see if we will rise to the occasion, and if we will show the whole world that america is still free and independent and strong. [cheers and applause] i am asking for your support tonight so that i can be your champion in the white house, and i will be your champion. [cheers and applause] my opponent asks her supporters to recite a threeword loyalty pledge. It reads, im with her. I choose to recite a different pledge. My pledge reads, im with you, the American People. [cheers and applause] i am your voice. So to every parent who dreams for their child, and every child who dreams for their future, i say these words to you tonight. I am with you. I will fight for you, and i will win for you. [cheers and applause] to all americans tonight, in all of our cities, and in all of our towns, i make this promise. We will make america strong again. [cheers] we will make america proud again. [cheers] we will make america safe again. [cheers] and we will make America Great again god bless you and good night i love you [cheers and applause]. Trish the crowd going wild here for Donald Trumps speech. He hit a lot of the big themes that hes been hitting in this campaign, hes for law and order, border control, ridding the world of isis, the economy and lots, lots more. Im here with lou dobbs and Charlie Gasparino and david asman. You know, it was a long speech but i tell you every Single Person in this room stayed engaged. They responded to him, lou. He had them. Lou indeed, and hes still got them. This is, right now, this is a love affair. These delegates and its interesting contrasting this to each of the nights. These folks have been standing up and there were a lot of delegations for People Holding back precruz, there was a little diffidence, you could sense and hear in some of the comments after the roll call, voice vote on the first night, but the truth is, these people are demonstrating real, real enthusiasm for this guy who just went through, what did he talk . It was well over an hour. Trish a long speech. I was following along with the copy that we had gotten, and took a lot of moments there, charlie, and played to the crowd a little bit. He didnt stick entirely to the prompter. This was his best teleprompter speech ever. He learned how to read a teleprompter so well, he didnt want to stop. We could quibble about a few things, i dont know its going prevent companies from going overseas and making iphones or whatever. Thats a quibble. But from a substance standpoint, he laid out his agenda pretty well, pretty specifically on taxes otrade. Whether you agree with it or not. From the rhetorical standpoint, he was excellent. Weve been working a full day, we were getting tired but this crowd was totally engaged. People were standing up throughout the whole thing. I mean, donald trump made the best case hes ever made for being president tonight. Lou i would love to see a picture of the trump family up there on the stage because theyre the heart of the movement. It is extraordinary as the balloons come down on queue. The pence family, the trump family. Did you ever think he would give a speech like that . That was a substantive speech. Lou he justified the expectations of everyone today over the course of five hours. I asked what do you expect him to do. What must he do . He did almost none of it. He actually prosecuted the case against Hillary Clinton. He went straight to the state of the union in an unvarnished way, and managed to make it didnt make it poetry, but he certainly gave it some considerable level of prose. The trade stuff hes going to have to answer to that. A difference between his position on trade and mike pence is stark. He said it. Lou mike pence doesnt get that vote. That is the donald trump agenda. No more pence, no more cruz, this is the trump agenda. A lot of republicans are going to say, okay hes not what are you going to do . Tax apple for making iphones overseas . Hes really going to do that. Lou charlie, i think you just saw a man on his stage whos going to do exactly what he says. I dont believe it. Lou thats all right. Next week we have people who agree with you. A lot of republicans agree with me, lou. Hes got to broaden his base. Its a quibble but its real. Trish he hit a lot of things. Safety the big thing in this country. You think about where we are and the challenges we face, and hes right. In our lifetimes we havent felt it like this. Lou this is the single most unvarnished presentation of the, that face this country in the most profound and threatening manner, and he took it all on, he didnt sugar coat a thing, and didnt cut, in my judgment, any corners on what has to be done. Everybodys worried about Law Enforcement right now. You can talk about trade. I would love to talk about lowering the Corporate Tax rate, okay . But think about it in the hierarchy of things you have to worry about here with the average american it. Aint the Corporate Tax rate. Lou thats why he didnt bring it up before. He didnt bring up the Corporate Tax rate, did he . Lou he brought up taxes at the end. The reason apple goes overseas. Lou he did bring up Corporate Taxes. He made the point its the highest tax rate in the world. The reason apple gets overseas. Trish they can get cheap labor. They get a lower Corporate Tax rate. Trish its cheap labor. Baloney we tax our corporations higher than ever before. Trish heres the thing, you say it resonated with everyone in the room, lou. Did it resonate with everyone at home. Its very different when youre in a big room like this, and theres all this excitement. Does it come across if youre sitting at home in your living room. Lou i cant give you the honest answer to that and dont mean to imply everyone is as enthused as 80 of the people. The fact is he has laid out the issues. Hes laid out the challenges and his response. And i think he did so in a compelling way. Trish ive got to ask you guys, everybody is criticizing him for not being substantive tonight. Lou he was tonight. Trish all through the campaign. Were talking about trade. Were talking about Corporate Taxes. Were talking about things that we in the Financial News media talked about forever, and suddenly it is the most relevant thing aside from terrorism. Lou because of that guy. Trish because of him, exactly. Lets be clear. He really wasnt that substantive until lately, and this is the most substantive speech hes given. Like i said trish charlie, i think the point is were talking about the issues. Nobody likes to get deep into the trade. Donald trump has gotten better. Trish hes ridden the conversation. Hes changed, hes gotten a lot better. No doubt about that. Lou he is the only candidate, and he was the first candidate to bring up these issues in order. They were not being discussed until donald trump entered the race on june 16th of last year. He started talking about international trade. The impact of it. He started talking about ilLegal Immigration and consequences. He started talking about border security. He stole the immigration line from ted cruz. Lou im sorry . He stole the immigration line from ted cruz. Lou come on hes been doing it forever. Trish he does get the criticism for lack of substance, but what is Hillary Clinton offering in the waive substance . People say shes more substantive. I dont know if shes offered any ideas any, solutions that would cause you to think that she has more of a hand along it. Lou he was strong on attacking her and her criminality. Lets face it, james comey called her a criminal without using those exact words. He was pretty good on that. Trish talking about how long the speech was. David, youve got data for us, research on that. Its been a while since we heard an acceptance speech that long. 1972 was the last time. A lot of us reported on president obamas first acceptance speech in 2008. That was only 50 minutes. This was an hour and 14 minutes according to my calculations, about 20 minutes longer than Barack Obamas speech, and again, it was probably the best prompter reading so far, but cadence, when you compare it to professional politicians like president obama or even Hillary Clinton, even though shes not up to his par, hes not a professional politician and, of course, as a result, this was a longer speech. But as lou mentioned, there were so many details in the speech. So many things. It was the culmination of the entire week. Every day had a theme and this was the day that all those themes were brought together. So it had to be a long speech. It was inevitable. Trish and lets not forget his daughter also gave a very powerful speech. Talking about the challenges that women face as working women in Todays Society and promising that her father would help them. This is going to be hard for Hillary Clinton to go up against. She keeps making the point we need more resources for things like day care, et cetera. Its also going to be hard because its another one trish pushing an agenda that would favor women. Its also as charlie was mentioned, parts of the speech against the firm, free trade views of the lot of conservatives. I am not going to let Companies Move to other countries. Thats what he said. That sounds pretty harsh if youre in favor of goods across borders. When she talks about wage equality, equal pay for equal work, there were people wondering how shes going to enforce that . Will that interfere with the free flow of commerce and individual decisions in the United States . Theres problems for conservatives in a number of cases. Trish i just wonder, lou, if a guy like this goes to washington, hes not afraid to get up on stage or in front of a tv camera and call people out. So theres the threat essentially if youre a lawmaker trying to, for example, put things through to benefit your campaign donors, such as a big company that may be backing you. He might just let loose on that. So when you talk about bringing this change and disruption to washington, hes not predictable. Does that change the equation. Lou interesting tonight, it became much more predictable. People talk about the complexities and the difficulty moving Corporate America in one direction, 130 Companies Make up the business roundtable. The largest u. S. Multinational. The bully pulpit is a mighty, might a strong force bring to bear, and as you know, this man has a very strong voice. By the way, can we continue on the path were on as acquiesce to corporatism, the power, dominant power in american politics, i believe its ending with this candidacy, if this candidacy could see it. In this country right now, government, big government, and i think thats one issue conservatives have with donald trump, and heres one thing i want to point out. There is another president that calls out people and companies and tries to embarrass them and Supreme Court justices, his name is barack obama. And got a little tiring after a while. Im not saying donald is going to be a tough guy but is he going to call out Supreme Courts . Trish were seeing a different political landscape, the pendulum shifts and perhaps eight years under barack obama caused the country and voters to come to the point where they say we need to take over because this isnt going well. I want to go down kennedy on the floor with some of the delegates and their reaction. Kennedy . Reporter it is a party here on the floor, trish. People are waist deep in balloons. There is confetti still falling from nets in the ceiling. People are dancing. They are jubilant. Standing on their chairs. Have you delegations from various states commingling. Its almost like the feeling you get at the end of the olympics at the closing ceremonies when all delegations from the parade of nations become one. They march together and thats how it feels down here, regardless of how you feel about the policy messages dona trump delivered tonight. People here are jubilant, and they got what they came for. His family stood on stage. He shouted out to his wife, his daughter, singled them out for the speeches they gave. Ivanka, of course, gave a very warm speech and touched on what was promised. A lot of female empower. A hard worker, coming from a privileged family and acknowledging that all at the same time painting a robust portrait of the kind of family man that her dad is. Did donald deliver with voters and delegates in the room . That remains to be seen, but right now, in this moment, the convention for these people is a total success. Trish . Trish all right, kennedy. Lets look at some of the highlights of tonight, a lot of different themes were discussed. Heres a few of them. We cannot afford to be so politically correct anymore. [cheers and applause] Hillary Clintons message is that things will never change. Never, ever. [laughter] my message is that things have to change, and they have to change right now [cheers and applause] we are going to build a great border wall to stop ilLegal Immigration, to stop the gangs and the violence and to stop the drugs from pouring into our communities [ches and app governor, he talked about sanctuary cities and the need to get rid of these. Have you obviously a tragic experience there in nebraska. There was a young woman in nebraska who was killed. Yeah. Trish and he talked about her. What needs to change when it ou immigration system that our laws are not being enforced and making bad decisions, and i think thats part of what faili protect them, especially on the topic of immigration. Trish and you can link that back and forth, lou, to political correctness. The left would say, well, you cant even call them illegal aliens if they are here illegally, and they need to have rights and need to have cities are driven by the left for entirely different reasons, but donald tr that taso be for trump, for the Republican Party . Well, i think he is tapping into somethingg people. Hes demonstrating that in the primaries. Exit polls show him Republican Party. Its going to be different. This is an groups that maybe typically republicans didnt reach out to before. Lou right now, the record look see a lot of enthusiasm on the floor. Lou its great. Trish its something that needed to happen. On the trajectory republicans were on, it was going to be too challenging to win an election. As i said before, becoming essentially the party of the rich and of capitalism in a way that is not becoming and crony capitalism. And so this does in many ways represent a shift and a change. You know, we heard that shift in change also echoed from his daughter, and peter joins us right now. Peter barnes is on the floor with highlights from her speech as she talked about the need to change the labor laws to help women. Peter . Reporter thats right, ivanka trump came out and introduced her father with a very powerful biography and statements about his record as a business person and a father. Listen. When my father says that he will make America Great again, he will deliver. Only my father will say ill fight for you. [cheers and applause] he recognizes real knowledge and skill when he finds it. He is color blind and gender neutral. He hires the best person for the job, period. This has long been the philosophy at the Trump Organization. At my fathers company, there are more female than male executives. Women are paid equally for the work that we do, and when a woman becomes a mother, she is supported, not shut out. He will be your greatest, your truest and your most loyal champion. [cheers and applause] to people all over america, i say when have you my father in your corner, you will never again have to worry about being let down. He will fight for you, all the time, all the way, every time. Reporter and hes going to take that message himself on the road tomorrow, actually staying near cleveland to first thank his volunteers that got him to this point today. Trish, back to you. Trish all here, thank you lou , for being here. Lou good to be with you. Trish and thank you to david asman. Really quite an amazing night here. Donald trump giving a very detailed speech this evening. A very long one. The longest since 1972, if you can believe it. But as lou and charlie were saying, it was rich in content, and thats what americans wanted to hear from donald trump. They want to know how hes going to make America Great again. Thats a lot of what we heard. That wraps up our coverage everyone of the Republican National convention. But we got lots more ahead next week. Ill tell you, fox business was the only Business Network to cover this convention from top to bottom. Were here for you. Were back again next week, live from philadelphia, monday night, in philly, for the Democratic National convention. Have a terrific night. Thank you so much for watching. Well see you tomorrow on fox business. Im just a guy who wants to buy that truck. And im just a guy who wants to sell him that truck. So i used truecar. It told me what other people in the area paid for the truck i want. And because were a truecar certified dealership, i already know the truck he wants. So were on the same page before he even gets here. Its fair. And its fast. Look good . Looks great. This is how car buying was always meant to be. This is truecar. In a wild west ghost town. A teenager stumbles upon a dilapidated gold mine. And its owner. She had a no trespassing sign at the gate. Does she say, im calling the cops, or does she pull an annie get your gun . Its the start of an uncommon relationship. Im thinking, youre a smooth operator. No, it was just the history i was interested in. Next thing her family knows, the guys getting their strange inheritance. I said, i certainly hope youre on the upandup. But is this old mine spent . Ruth, i got a lot of respect for you now. Or could it still make him rich . Theres still gold here. This is by far the hottest result that ive ever worked with
