TÁCH CÀ PHÊ MUỐI

Anh gặp nàng trong một bữa tiệc. Nàng vô cùng xinh xắn và dễ thương… Biết bao chàng trai theo đuổi nàng trong khi anh chỉ là một gã bình thường chẳng ai thèm để ý. Cuối bữa tiệc, lấy hết can đảm, anh mời nàng đi uống cafe. Hết sức ngạc nhiên, nhưng vì phép lịch sự nàng cũng nhận lời.

Họ ngồi im lặng trong một quán cafe. Anh quá run nên không nói được câu nào. Cô gái bắt đầu cảm thấy thật buồn tẻ và muốn đi về… Chàng trai thì cứ loay hoay mãi với cốc cafe, cầm lên lại đặt xuống… 
Đúng lúc cô gái định đứng lên và xin phép ra về thì bất chợt chàng trai gọi người phục vụ: “Làm ơn cho tôi ít muối vào tách cafe”. 
Gần như tất cả những người trong quán nước đều quay lại nhìn anh… Cô gái cũng vô cùng ngạc nhiên. Nàng hỏi anh tại sao lại có sở thích kì lạ thế. Anh lúng túng một lát rồi nói:
“Ngày trước nhà tôi gần biển. Tôi rất thích nô đùa với sóng biển, thích cái vị mặn và đắng của nước biển. Vâng, mặn và đắng – giống như cafe cho thêm muối vậy… Mỗi khi uống cafe muối như thế này, tôi lại nhớ quê hương và cha mẹ mình da diết…”. 

Cô gái nhìn anh thông cảm và dường như nàng rất xúc động trước tình cảm chân thành của anh. Nàng thầm nghĩ một người yêu quê hương và cha mẹ mình như thế hẳn phải là người tốt và chắc chắn sau này sẽ là một người chồng, người cha tốt… Câu chuyện cởi mở hơn khi nàng cũng kể về tuổi thơ, về cha mẹ và gia đình mình…

Khi chia tay ra về, cả hai cùng cảm thấy thật dễ chịu và vui vẻ. Và qua những cuộc hẹn hò về sau, càng ngày cô gái càng nhận ra chàng trai có thật nhiều tính tốt. Anh rất chân thành, kiên nhẫn và luôn thông cảm với những khó khăn của cô. Và… như bao câu chuyện kết thúc có hậu khác, hai người lấy nhau. Họ đã sống rất hạnh phúc trong suốt cuộc đời. Sáng nào trước khi anh đi làm, nàng cũng pha cho anh một tách cafe muối…

Nhưng khác những câu chuyện cổ tích, câu chuyện này không dừng ở đó. Nhiều năm sau, đôi vợ chồng già đi, và người chồng là người ra đi trước… Sau khi anh chết, người vợ tìm thấy một lá thư anh để lại. Trong thư viết: “Gửi người con gái mà anh yêu thương nhất! Có một điều mà anh đã không đủ can đảm nói với em. Anh đã lừa dối em, một lần duy nhất trong cuộc đời… Thực sự là ngày đầu tiên mình gặp nhau, được nói chuyện với em là niềm sung sướng đối với anh. Anh đã rất run khi ngồi đối diện em… Lúc đó anh định gọi đường cho tách cafe nhưng anh nói nhầm thành muối. Nhìn đôi mắt em lúc đó, anh biết mình không thể rút lại lời vừa nói nên anh đã bịa ra câu chuyện về biển và cafe muối. Anh không hề thích và chưa bao giờ uống cafe muối trước đó! Rất nhiều lần anh muốn nói thật với em nhưng anh sợ… Anh đã tự hứa với mình đó là lần đầu và cũng là lần cuối anh nói dối em. Nếu được làm lại từ đầu, anh vẫn sẽ làm như vậy… để được có em và để được uống tách cafe muối em pha hàng ngày suốt cuộc đời anh… Anh yêu em!”.

Mắt người vợ nhòa đi khi đọc đến những dòng cuối lá thư. Bà gấp bức thư lại và chầm chậm đứng lên, đi pha cho mình một tách cafe muối… Nếu bây giờ có ai hỏi bà cafe muối có vị như thế nào, bà sẽ nói cho họ biết: Nó rất ngọt!!!

Vì sao ông Trump vẫn được nhiều người ủng hộ ? Nguyễn Quang Duy

Mặc dù ông Trump thất cử tổng thống 2020, nhưng ngay sau ngày 6/1/2021 đã rộ lên tin đồn ông Trump sẽ bỏ đảng Cộng Hòa thành lập đảng chính trị mới quy tụ những người ủng hộ ông.
Tin đồn được truyền thông chính mạch Mỹ triệt để khai thác, họ cho tổ chức nhiều cuộc thăm dò dẫn đến cùng một kết quả là cử tri đảng Cộng Hòa vẫn nồng nhiệt ủng hộ ông Trump và sẵn sàng gia nhập đảng thứ ba nếu ông thành lập.
Giới truyền thông chính mạch bấy lâu nay tập trung vào phần nổi là cá tính “độc đáo” của ông Trump mà quên đi phần chìm là những thách thức mà hệ thống chính trị Mỹ đang phải đối đầu.
Vì thế họ đã không giải thích lý do cử tri đảng Cộng Hòa vẫn tiếp tục ủng hộ dù ông Trump không còn là tổng thống.

Cử tri đảng Cộng Hòa nghĩ gì ?
Kết quả từ một cuộc thăm dò được Viện thăm dò dư luận Gallup thực hiện từ ngày 21/1/2021 đến ngày 2/2/2021 và công bố ngày 15/2/2021 cho thấy:

Thứ nhất, có đến 68% đảng viên muốn ông Trump tiếp tục lãnh đạo đảng Cộng hòa;
Thứ hai, có 63% đảng viên tin rằng cả hai đảng Cộng Hòa và Dân Chủ đều quá sức tồi tệ nên cần có một đảng thứ ba thực sự đại diện cho người Mỹ;
Thứ ba, các đảng viên này muốn đảng Cộng Hòa trở lại với khuynh hướng bảo thủ thay vì càng ngày càng ngả sang cánh tả cấp tiến; và
Thứ tư, những đảng viên muốn có một đảng thứ ba cũng là những người vẫn xem ông Trump là lãnh đạo đảng và sẵn sàng bỏ đảng để gia nhập đảng của ông Trump.

Kết quả cho thấy uy tín của ông Trump trong đảng Cộng Hòa còn quá lớn để ông có thể trực tiếp ảnh hưởng đến kết quả các cuộc bầu cử sơ bộ đảng Cộng Hòa và các cuộc bầu cử 2022 và 2024 sắp tới.
Như thế nếu có một đảng thứ ba được thành lập thì đảng này chỉ quy tụ những đảng viên đảng Cộng Hòa không chấp nhập sự lãnh đạo của ông Trump, chứ không phải đảng do ông thành lập.

Lãnh đạo đảng Cộng Hòa nghĩ gì ?
Mặc dù quan điểm chính trị của mỗi người mỗi khác nhưng các chính trị gia Mỹ cùng một đảng thường sẵn sàng gác bỏ những khác biệt để thống nhất về chính sách và chiến lược nhằm vận động cử tri dồn phiếu cho họ và cho đảng họ đại diện.

Vì thế, ngày 28/1/2021 Lãnh đạo phe thiểu số đảng Cộng Hòa tại Hạ Viện ông Kevin McCarthy đã chính thức xuống tận Câu Lạc Bộ Mar-a-Lago thuộc tiểu bang Florida để gặp ông Trump bàn luận về chiến thuật và chiến lược tranh cử năm 2022.
Ngày 23/2/2021, Thượng nghị sĩ Cộng hòa Lindsey Graham đã ghé thăm ông Trump sau đó ông Graham tuyên bố với báo chí là đảng Cộng hòa nếu muốn thắng cuộc bầu cử năm 2022 cần thực hiện những chính sách dưới sự hướng dẫn của ông Trump.
Ngày 25/2/2021, Thượng nghị sĩ Mitch McConnell Lãnh đạo phe thiểu số đảng Cộng hòa tại Thượng Viện cho biết ông sẽ ủng hộ ông Trump nếu ông ấy được đảng Cộng Hòa đề cử ra tranh cử tổng thống năm 2024.
Sắp tới vào ngày 28/2/2012 tại Hội nghị Hành động Chính trị Bảo thủ (CPAC) sẽ diễn ra tại Orlando, Florida, ông Trump sẽ có bài phát biểu để vạch ra hướng đi cho tương lai của đảng Cộng Hòa.

Lý do ông Trump được ủng hộ
Lý do mà đảng Cộng Hòa vẫn muốn gắn bó với ông Trump có thể được tóm lược như sau:
Về kinh tế việc cắt giảm thuế và khuyến khích vốn đầu tư quay trở lại nước Mỹ đã giúp tỉ lệ thất nghiệp xuống còn 3.5% vào tháng 9/2019, là tỉ lệ thấp nhất trong vòng 50 năm và có thể xem là tỉ lệ toàn dụng nhân lực (full employment).
Giải quyết được công ăn việc làm cho tầng lớp lao động là yếu tố quan trọng nhất trong các cuộc tranh cử tại Mỹ nên kinh tế vẫn là điểm mạnh nhất của Chính Phủ Trump.
Về năng lượng các chính sách khai thác tài nguyên nội địa thời ông Trump vừa giúp nước Mỹ không phải lệ thuộc vào nguồn nhiên liệu từ ngoại quốc lại còn tạo công ăn việc làm cho dân Mỹ.
Trận bão tuyết thổi qua tiểu bang Texas khiến điện gió và điện mặt trời ngừng hoạt động, mạng lưới điện sập, gây mất điện toàn tiểu bang là bài học để nước Mỹ xây dựng một chiến lược cân bằng năng lượng.

Các đảng viên đảng Cộng Hòa lo ngại khi nhận ra rằng các chính trị gia Mỹ ngày càng ngả sang cánh tả cấp tiến. Vì thế họ muốn những người lãnh đạo đảng phải quay về ủng hộ những chính sách di dân, văn hóa, giáo dục và bảo vệ những quyền tự do được ông Trump cổ vũ và thực hiện trước đây.
Chính sách quan trọng khác của ông Trump là quan tâm đến quyền lợi của tầng lớp lao động và chính kiến của các cộng đồng sắc tộc, thiếu chính sách này đảng Cộng Hòa khó có thể thắng được đảng Dân Chủ.
Về đối ngoại, từ năm 2017 ông Trump đề xướng và thực hiện Khung Chiến Lược Ấn Độ - Thái Bình Dương chủ trương liên minh với các quốc gia trong vùng, bao vây và cô lập Trung cộng, nhằm phá vỡ chiến lược Vành Đai Con Đường của Bắc Kinh.
Hiện chưa rõ Chính phủ Biden sẽ tiếp nối Chiến Lược Ấn Độ - Thái Bình Dương hay quay lại Chiến Lược Xoay Trục Thái Bình Dương thời tổng thống Obama. Hai chiến lược rất khác nhau xin hẹn một bài khác sẽ viết về đề tài này.
Nói chung đảng Cộng Hòa đã nhận thức được khuynh hướng toàn cầu hóa mà nhiều đời tổng thống trước ông Trump đeo đuổi đã không mang lại lợi ích thiết thực mà còn hủy hoại nước Mỹ.
Vì thế, đa số đảng viên đảng Cộng Hòa tin theo và tiếp tục ủng hộ những chính sách và chiến lược chống toàn cầu hóa thời Tổng thống Trump.

Ông Trump tranh cử tổng thống năm 2024 ?
Còn quá sớm để ông Trump cho biết có ra tranh cử nhiệm kỳ tới hay không, nhưng lên đến 68% số đảng viên đảng Cộng Hòa ủng hộ ông thì chắc chắn ông sẽ thắng trong kỳ tranh cử sơ bộ tổ chức vào giữa năm 2024.
Đối với giới truyền thống chính mạch tin tức về ông Trump vẫn là những tin tức được săn đón đưa lên hàng đầu cho thấy ông Trump vẫn là một nhân vật được quần chúng Mỹ để ý quan tâm.
Đối với đảng Dân Chủ ông Trump vẫn là đối thủ nặng ký nhất, vì thế dù ông đã mãn nhiệm tổng thống đảng Dân Chủ đã mang ông ra hạch tội lần thứ hai và họ sẽ tìm mọi cách loại trừ ông khỏi sinh hoạt chính trị.
Ngày 16/2/2021, Dân biểu đảng Dân chủ Bennie Thompson, chủ tịch Ủy ban An ninh Nội địa của Hạ viện, đã đâm đơn kiện ông Trump cùng ông Rudy Giuliani, luật sư riêng của ông Trump và hai tổ chức cánh hữu đồng lõa “kích động bạo loạn” tại Điện Capitol.
Đảng Dân Chủ muốn thành lập một “Ủy Ban độc lập” gồm những người được lưỡng đảng đề cử nhằm tiến hành điều tra việc người biểu tình xông vào Điện Capitol ngày 6/1/2021.
Đảng Dân Chủ muốn 11 người trong Ủy Ban sẽ có 3 người do Tổng thống Biden bổ nhiệm và 4 người do mỗi đảng bổ nhiệm, còn đảng Cộng Hòa đòi một Ủy ban cân bằng số người do mỗi đảng bổ nhiệm.
Mặc dù đảng Dân Chủ hiện đang nắm cả Thượng viện lẫn Hạ Viện nhưng với khoảng cách chênh lệch khá thấp rất dễ bị đảo ngược trong lần tranh cử giữa kỳ 2022 sắp tới.
Lấy lại Hạ Viện và Thượng Viện là phương cách để đảng Cộng Hòa kềm hãm những thay đổi từ Chính phủ Biden và từng bước tiếp nối con đường mà ông Trump đã gầy dựng.
Đến nay ông Trump và đảng Cộng Hòa còn tập trung vào cuộc tranh cử giữa kỳ 2022, tình hình chính trị ở Mỹ cũng như ở thế giới sẽ giúp ông Trump quyết định ra tranh cử hay đề cử một người từng sát cánh với ông ra tranh cử Tổng thống 2024 thay ông.

Người Việt ủng hộ ông Trump
Người Mỹ gốc Việt theo đảng Cộng Hòa ủng hộ ông Trump là điều hết sức bình thường, đáng lưu ý là đa số người Việt không sống ở Mỹ cũng nhiệt tình ủng hộ ông Trump.
Có người lý giải “đối thủ của kẻ thù là bạn”, ông Trump chống Trung cộng mà người Việt thì cũng chống Trung cộng nên người Việt ủng hộ ông.
Cũng có người cho rằng khen chê chính trị của Mỹ vừa hứng thú vừa an toàn, còn ở Việt Nam mọi thứ đã có “Đảng” lo, hơi đâu xen vào chuyện nội bộ của họ có khi lại phiền đến bản thân và gia đình.
Những lý do trên cũng chỉ là mặt nổi của tảng băng, còn phần chìm của nó thì theo tôi còn hai lý do khác sâu và rộng hơn:

Thứ nhất, những ý tưởng cánh tả cấp tiến kiểu Mỹ chưa ảnh hưởng đến cách suy nghĩ của đại đa số người Việt, nói cách khác người Việt cũng giống như những đảng viên đảng Cộng Hòa Mỹ còn rất bảo thủ trong cách suy nghĩ và hành động; và
Thứ hai, thế giới đã thay đổi quá nhiều và quá nhanh, ảnh hưởng quá mạnh mẽ đến đời sống của người Việt, từ mức độ chênh lệch giàu nghèo, đến thay đổi môi trường, văn hóa, giáo dục, xã hội, gia đình, mà hệ thống chính trị tại Việt Nam thì không hề thay đổi.
Hơn 30 năm qua, trường phái tân tự do ở Mỹ đẩy mạnh toàn cầu hóa đã không mang lại tự do và dân chủ cho Việt Nam, lại còn hủy hoại môi trường và con người Việt Nam.
Khi chứng kiến toàn cầu hóa ảnh hưởng xấu đến đất nước và con người, khuynh hướng bảo thủ và bảo tồn những giá trị truyền thống dân tộc trỗi dậy, người Việt vốn đã bảo thủ càng trở nên bảo thủ hơn.
Nên người Việt không khác gì người Mỹ thuộc đảng Cộng Hòa theo khuynh hướng bảo thủ, tận đáy lòng muốn bảo vệ những giá trị truyền thống đang bị toàn cầu hóa hủy hoại, vì thế không lạ gì khi thấy đa số người Việt vẫn tiếp tục ủng hộ ông Trump.

Toàn Văn bài Phát Biểu dài hơn 1 giờ của Tổng Thống Donald Trump, trong ngày cuối cùng CPAC ( 28/02/2021),

  • Well thank you very much CPAC. Do you miss me yet? Do you miss me? A lot of things going on to so many wonderful friends, Conservatives and fellow citizens in this room all across our country. I stand before you today to declare that the incredible journey we begun together we went through a journey like nobody else. There’s never been a journey like it, there’s never been a journey so successful. We began it together four years ago and it is far from being over. And you know what this is? The hardest working people, hard working American patriots, it’s just getting started and in the end we will win. We will win. We’ve been doing a lot of winning. As we gather this week, we’re in the middle of a historic struggle for America’s future, America’s culture and America’s institutions, borders, and most cherished principles. Our security, our prosperity, and our very identity as Americans is at stake, like perhaps at no other time.
    Donald Trump: (04:39)

    So no matter how much the Washington establishment and the powerful, special interests may want to silence us, let there be no doubt we will be victorious and America will be stronger and greater than ever before. I want to thank my great friends, Matt and Mercedes Schlap, Matt, thank you. Mercedes, thank you very much. And the American Conservative Union for hosting this extraordinary event. They’re talking about it all over the world man, I know you don’t like it [inaudible 00:05:19] okay. All over the world. I also want to pay my love and respect to the great Rush Limbaugh who is watching closely and smiling down on us. He’s watching and he’s loving it and he loves Catherine. Catherine, thank you for being here. So great. Thank you Catherine. He loved you Catherine, I will tell you that. Fantastic. Thank you Catherine very much. To each and every one of you here at CPAC I am more grateful to you than you will ever know.
    Donald Trump: (06:05)

    We are gathered this afternoon to talk about the future of our movement, the future of our party and the future of our beloved country. For the next four years, the brave Republicans in this room will be at the heart of the effort to oppose the radical Democrats, the fake news media and their toxic cancel culture, something new to our ears, cancel culture. And I want you to know that I’m going to continue to fight right by your side. We will do what we’ve done right from the beginning, which is to win. We’re not starting new parties. They kept saying, “He’s going to start a brand new party.” We have the Republican party it’s going to unite and be stronger than ever before.
    Donald Trump: (06:58)

    I am not starting a new party. That was fake news, fake news. No. Wouldn’t that be brilliant? Let’s start a new party and let’s divide our vote so that you can never win. No, we’re not interested in that. Mr. McLaughlin just gave me numbers that nobody’s ever heard of before, more popular than anybody. That’s all of us, it’s all of us. Those are great numbers and I want to thank you very much. Those are incredible numbers. I came here and he was giving me 95%, 97%, 92%. And I said, “They’re great.” And I want to thank everybody in this room and everybody all throughout the country, throughout the world if you want to really know the truth.
    Speaker 2: (07:40)

    Thank you President Trump!
    Donald Trump: (07:42)

    Thank you, darling. Thank you. We will be united and strong like never before, we will save and strengthen America. We will fight the onslaught of radicalism, socialism, and indeed it all leads to communism once and for all. That’s what it leads to. You’ll be hearing more and more about that as we go along, but that’s what it leads to. You know that. We all knew that the Biden administration was going to be bad, but none of us even imagined just how bad they would be and how far left they would go. He never talked about this. We would have those wonderful debates, he would never talk about this. We didn’t know what the hell he was talking about actually. His campaign was all lies. Talked about energy, I said, “This guy actually he’s okay with energy.” He wasn’t okay with energy, he wants to put you all out of the business. He’s not okay with energy. He wants windmills, the windmills. The windmills that don’t work when you need them.
    Donald Trump: (08:48)

    Joe Biden has had the most disastrous first month of any President in modern history, that’s true. Already the Biden administration has proved that they are anti-jobs, anti-family anti-borders, anti-energy, anti-women, and anti-science. In just one short month we have gone from America first to America last. Think about it, right? America last. There is no better example than the new and horrible crisis on our Southern border. We did such a good job. It was all worked, nobody’s ever seen anything like we did and now he wants it all to go to hell. When I left office just six weeks ago, we had created the most secure border in U.S. history. We had built almost 500 miles of great border wall that helped us with these numbers because once it’s up, they used to say, “The wall doesn’t work.” Well you know what I’ve always said? Walls and wheels, those are two things that will never change.
    Donald Trump: (10:07)

    The wall has been amazing. It’s been incredible and little sections of it to complete, they don’t want to complete it. They don’t want to complete little sections in certain little areas, they don’t want to complete. But it’s had an impact that nobody would have even believed. It’s amazing considering that the Democrats’ number one priority was to make sure that the wall would never, ever get built, would never, ever happen, would never get financed. We got it, financed. We ended catch and release, ended asylum fraud and brought illegal crossings to historic lows. When illegal aliens trespass across our borders, they were prominently caught, detained and sent back home and these were some rough customers, I want to tell you. Some rough customers entering our country. It took them the new administration only a few weeks to turn this unprecedented accomplishment into a self inflicted humanitarian and national security disaster.
    Donald Trump: (11:11)

    By recklessly eliminating our border security measures, controls, all of the things that we put into place, Joe Biden has triggered a massive flood of illegal immigration into our country the likes of which we have never seen before. They’re coming up by the tens of thousands. They’re all coming to take advantage of the things that he said that’s luring everybody to come to America. And we’re one country, we can’t afford the problems of the world as much as we’d love to. We’d love to help but we can’t do that. So they’re all coming because of promises and foolish words. Perhaps worst of all, Joe Biden’s decision to cancel border security has single handedly launched a youth migrant crisis that is enriching child smugglers, vicious criminal cartels, and some of the most evil people on the planet. You see it every day, just turn on the news, you’ll see it every day.
    Donald Trump: (12:15)

    Under my administration, we stopped the child smugglers, we dismantled the criminal cartels. We greatly limited drug and human trafficking to a level that nobody actually thought was possible and the wall helped us a lot and we protected vulnerable people from the ravages of dangerous predators and that’s what they are. Dangerous, dangerous predators. But the Biden administration is put the vile coyotes back in business and has done so in a very, very big way under the new administration, catch and release has been restored. Can you imagine? We worked so hard. Catch, you know where that is? You catch them, you take their name, they may be killers, they may be rapists, they may be drug smugglers, you take their name and you release them into our country. We did the opposite. We not only didn’t release them, we had them brought back to their country.
    Donald Trump: (13:15)

    Illegal immigrants are now being apprehended and released along the entire Southern border, just the opposite of what it was two months ago. They weren’t coming because they couldn’t get in. Once they think they can get in, they’re coming and they are coming at levels that you haven’t even seen yet. By the hundreds of thousands, by the millions they’ll be coming. The Biden administration is now actively expediting the admission of illegal migrants, enabling them to lodge, frivolous asylum claims and admitting them by the thousands and thousands and thousands a day, crowded together in unsanitary conditions despite the ongoing economic and public health crisis, COVID-19, or as I call it the China virus.
    Donald Trump: (14:11)

    There’s no masks, there’s no double masks, that was a new one that came out two weeks ago. First Fauci said, you don’t need masks, no masks, no good, now he wants double masks. No social distancing, no nothing, no nothing. That together and I say it actually and I say for them, and I say it for our country, what the Biden administration is doing to push young migrants into the hands of human traffickers and coyotes is dangerous, immoral and indefensible, hard to believe it’s happening. Biden has failed in his number one duty as chief executive, enforcing America’s laws. This alone should be reason enough for Democrats to suffer withering losses in the midterms and to lose the white house decisively four years from now.
    Speaker 1: (15:37)

    USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA!
    Donald Trump: (15:41)

    Actually, as you know, they just lost the white house, but it’s one of those. But who knows? Who knows, I may even decide to beat them for a third time, okay? Joe Biden defunded the border wall and stopped all future construction even on small open sections that just needed to be finished up, routine little work it’s already been bought. Wait until the contractors get to them and they say, “No, it costs this much more money not to finish the small sections then if we finished it,” that’s going to be nice. Wait until you see those bills start pouring in. He revoked the executive order cracking down on deadly sanctuary cities. He has effectively ordered a shutdown of ICE, halting virtually all deportations, everyone, murderers, everybody, no more. Let’s not deport people. And restricting our law enforcement professionals and they are great professionals, you have many of them represented here today, from conducting almost any immigration enforcement of any kind.
    Donald Trump: (17:13)

    The Biden policy of releasing criminals into the U.S. interior is making America into a sanctuary nation where criminals, illegal immigrants, including gang members and sex offenders are set free into American communities. They have no idea and remember with the caravans, these countries, not only the three of them, but many, many countries all over the world, they’re not giving us the best and their finest because they’re intelligent. They’re not giving us their best and their finest, remember I said that? I said that a long time ago when I made the first remarks, when I came down the escalator with our great future first lady, who says hello. Who loves you as much as I love you. I said that a long time ago, and we turned out to be 100% correct. Biden’s radical immigration policies aren’t just illegal, they’re immoral, they’re heartless and they are a betrayal of our nation’s core values. It’s a terrible thing that’s happening
    Donald Trump: (18:26)

    The Republican party must hold Joe Biden and the Democrats accountable. They ripped up the diplomatic agreements we negotiated with Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador to shut down illegal immigration. They got a fortune, they got paid $500 million a year. When I came into office, those countries were refusing to take back illegal alien gang members, including MS13, the most vicious probably of them all. No matter where you go in the world, MS13, they do things that even the worst don’t think about. So I asked, “How much do we pay these countries? How much do we pay them?” Sir, we pay them approximately $500 million a year. That’s a lot of money. I mean, it’s peanuts compared to the way other countries rip us off but that’s a lot of money. I said, “Okay, we aren’t going to pay them anymore because they wouldn’t take back the criminals.” And this was true with the Obama administration, it was true for many, many years.
    Donald Trump: (19:36)

    So we’d catch a murderer we’d want to bring them back to Guatemala or Honduras or El Salvador, they wouldn’t take them back. No, we don’t want them. We’d fly them in, they wouldn’t let the plane land, we’d bus them and they wouldn’t let the buses get anywhere near the border. And I said, “We’re not going to pay them anymore.” So after I said that, and I stopped payment, like a term that we use in the world of business, let’s stop payment. So we stopped payment, they were delinquent. We stopped payment and they very quickly came to the table and we made a deal very quickly. We still kept the money. We still didn’t pay it but we made a deal. And when illegal aliens came across our border they were rapidly deported and lovingly accepted by those countries from where they came and it worked, so they accept the people and we ultimately got along very well with those countries, those three countries, and many countries throughout the world, because they respected us again.
    Donald Trump: (20:42)
    They didn’t respect us. They couldn’t believe what they were getting away with. But now Joe Biden has wrecked this great deal, wrecked it. And they’re already doing what they were doing before, and they’re taking the money and that’s just a small portion of what’s going on. To top it all off, the Biden people are pushing a bill that would grant mass amnesty for millions of illegal aliens while massively expanding chain migration. That’s where you come in and everybody comes in, your grandmother, your father, your mother, your brother, your cousins, they come in so easily. So crazy, so crazy. It even requires that the U.S. government provide a illegal border crossings with taxable funded lawyers, lawyers. Anybody need a good lawyer? You can’t have one. They get the lawyers, they lawyers. They’re probably very good to.
    Donald Trump: (21:38)

    The Democrat immigration bill is a globalist corp. You take a look at the corporatists, big tech attack on hard working citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed and Republicans must ensure that it never is allowed to become federal law, which is what they want to do. We must stand tall in the party. We have to do this. We have to stand tall as the [inaudible 00:22:10] for law abiding Americans and others when they’re in our country. Border security is just one of the many issues on which the new administration has already betrayed the American people. He didn’t talk about this stuff. I debated him. He wasn’t talking about this. What he signed with those executive orders. They weren’t things that were discussed. We didn’t know all about him and the press because they’re fake news. They’re the biggest fakers there are.
    Donald Trump: (22:38)

    But the press refused to ask the questions and when I asked the questions on television, on the debate, Chris Wallace, in this case, and others refused to let him answer. They refused to let him answer the questions. Maybe we could have found something, or if the media did its job, which they don’t. Their callous indifference to working families is equally clear when it comes to the critical matter of getting Americans’ children back to school. And they must get back and get back right now, right now. Crazy. Terrible. Terrible. The Biden administration is actually bragging about the classroom education they are providing to migrant children on the border while at the same time, millions of American children are having their futures destroyed by Joe Biden’s anti-science school closures. Think of it. We’re educating students on the [inaudible 00:23:55] but our own people, children of our citizens, citizens themselves are not getting the education …
    Donald Trump: (24:03)

    … themselves are not getting the education that they deserve. There’s no reason whatsoever why the vast majority of young Americans should not be back in school immediately.
    Donald Trump: (24:13)
    The only reason that most parents do not have that choice is because Joe Biden sold out America’s children to the teacher’s unions.

    Donald Trump: (24:28)
    His position is morally inexcusable. You know that. Joe Biden has shamefully betrayed America’s youth and he is cruelly keeping our children locked in their homes, no reason for it whatsoever, they want to get out. They’re cheating the next generation of Americans out of the future that they deserve. And they do deserve this future. They’re going to grow up and they’re going to have a scar. It’s a scandal of the highest order and one of the most graven acts by any president in our lifetimes. It’s the teacher’s union, it’s the votes and it shouldn’t happen. And I have, nobody has more respect for teachers than I do. And I’ll bet you a lot of the people within that union, they agree with everything I’m saying. Even the New York Times is calling out the Democrats.
    Donald Trump: (25:22)

    The mental and physical health of these young people is reaching a breaking point. Tragically suicide attempts have skyrocketed and student depression is now commonplace and at levels that we’ve never seen before. The Democrats now say we have to pass their $1.9 trillion boondoggle to open schools, but a very small part of it has to do with that. You know where it’s going. It’s going to bail out badly run Democrat cities. So much of it. But billions of dollars for schools remain unspent from the COVID relief bills that were passed last year. So on behalf of the moms, dads and children of America, I call on Joe Biden to get the schools open and get them open now. It’d be a great thing to do.
    Donald Trump: (26:08)

    When I left office, and we’re very proud of this because this was something that they said could not be done. The FDA said it, everybody said it, any article that you read said it. Couldn’t be done. It would be years and years. I handed the new administration what everyone is now calling a modern day medical miracle. Some say it’s the greatest thing to happen in hundreds of years, hundreds of years. Two vaccines produced in record [inaudible 00:26:51] others on the way, including the Johnson and Johnson vaccine that was approved just yesterday.
    Donald Trump: (26:56)

    And therapeutic relief, also, if you’re sick. If you’re sick, we have things now that are incredible. What has taken place over the last year under our administration would have taken any other president at least five years. And we got it done in nine months. Everyone says five years, five years. Can you imagine if you had to go through what all of the countries of the world who are now getting the vaccine or soon will be getting it from various companies. But can you imagine if all of those countries had to go through what they’ve been going through over the last year? You’d lose hundreds of millions of people.
    Donald Trump: (27:48)

    I pushed the FDA like they have never been pushed before. They told me that loud and clear. They have never been pushed like I pushed them. I didn’t like them at all. But once we got it done, I said I now love you very much. What the Trump administration has done with vaccines has in many respects, perhaps saved large portions of the world. Not only our country, but large portions of the world.
    Donald Trump: (28:22)

    Not only did we push the FDA far beyond what the bureaucrats wanted to do, we also put up billions and billions of dollars, 10 billion, to produce the vaccines before we knew they were going to work. It was called a calculated bet or a calculated risk. We took a risk because if we didn’t do that, you still wouldn’t have the vaccines. You wouldn’t have them for a long time. So think of that. We took this bet, we made a bet because we feel we’re on a certain track. But you’d be starting to make them right now. It’d be a long time before you ever saw. It takes 60 to a hundred days to manufacture and inspect new doses. And that means that 100% of the increased availability that we have now was initiated by our administration. 100%.
    Donald Trump: (29:19)

    In fact, the director of national institutes of health, Francis Collins, he’s Fauci’s boss, actually. I think he’s a Democrat too, by the way. Recently said that our operation warp speed was absolutely breathtaking. And that the Trump administration deserves full credit. Which we do. And as conservatives and Republicans, never forget that we did it. Never let them take the credit because they don’t deserve the credit. They just followed now, they’re following our plan, but this has been something that they really call it an absolute miracle.
    Donald Trump: (30:07)

    Joe Biden is only implementing the plan that we put in place. And if we had an honest media, which we don’t. They would say it loud and clear. By the time I left that magnificent house at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, almost 20 million Americans had already been vaccinated. 1.5 million doses were administered on my final day alone. 1.5 million in a day. Yet Biden said just a few days ago that when he got here, meaning the white house, there was no vaccine. He said there’s no vaccine. Oh good. Say it again, Joe.
    Donald Trump: (30:52)

    Now I don’t think he said that, frankly, in a malicious way. I really don’t. I actually believe he said that because he didn’t really know what the hell was happening. But never let them forget, this was us. We did this. And the distribution is moving along according to our plan. And it’s moving along really well. We had the military, what they’ve done, our generals and all of the people what [inaudible 00:31:30] incredible. But remember, we took care of a lot of people. Including, I guess on December 21st, we took care of Joe Biden, because he got his shot. He got his vaccine. He forgot. It shows you how unpainful that vaccine shot is. So everybody go get your shot. He forgot. So it wasn’t very traumatic, obviously. But he got his shot. And it’s good that he got his shot.
    Donald Trump: (31:55)

    Last year, I predicted to you that the extremist corruption and incompetence of the Biden administration would be literally unprecedented in American history. Unfortunately, he has proven me 100% right. Already, as president, Biden has urged [inaudible 00:32:19] legislation shredding your second amendment. Your second amendment is in far bigger trouble than you know. And for four years, I fought like hell to save your second amendment. And we saved it 100&. We saved it.
    Donald Trump: (32:35)

    We signed an order to conduct politically correct, far-left indoctrination trainings in every department of the federal government, including the U S military, after I had terminated these horrible things that were being preached to our military. And he wants it to go forward. It’s insane. Within his first few hours Biden eliminated our national security travel bans on nations plagued by terrorism. His first priority was to open up borders to unvetted travelers from Libya, Yemen, Syria, Somalia [inaudible 00:33:14] other countries where strict vetting cannot occur. Countries that have tremendous problems. Countries with tremendous terrorism problems. We did a travel ban. It was a real achievement. We told those countries, sorry, straighten out your act. We don’t want people coming in where they had an ideology or a problem. We just couldn’t have it. And it was incredible. How it worked was incredible. And he terminated it.
    Donald Trump: (33:43)

    We had to get it approved. It went all the way up to the Supreme Court of the United States. We got it approved and he terminates it. In addition, he’s already increased refugee admissions by nearly 10 times. But in effect, it will soon be hundreds of times as millions of people flow up through our soon to be open borders. And by the way, the border patrol and ICE are some of the great heroes of our country. These are incredible people. I got to know them very well.
    Donald Trump: (34:13)

    You family still cannot go out to eat at local restaurants, but Joe Biden is bringing in thousands upon thousands of refugees from all over the world, people that nobody knows anything about. We don’t have crime records. We don’t have health records. What are they bringing in with them? When I left office, we had virtually ended the endless wars. These endless wars, they go on forever. They go on forever.
    Donald Trump: (34:42)

    I would go to Dover and I would see caskets, coffins coming in. I’d see the parents and wives and husbands. I would see the kids. Endless wars. 19 years in Afghanistan, we have it down to almost [inaudible 00:35:00] left and I hear they might want to go back in. Iraq. Remember I used to say don’t go in, but if you’re going to go in, keep the oil [inaudible 00:35:09] but we didn’t keep the oil. We had made historic peace deals in the Middle East like nobody thought were even possible. There’s not a drop of blood shed.
    Donald Trump: (35:19)

    And by the way, not one American soldier has been killed in Afghanistan in over a year. Think of that. Not one. Those troops have largely come home. At the same time, the new administration unilaterally withdrew our crippling sanctions on Iran, foolishly giving away all of America’s leverage before negotiations have even begun. Leave the sanctions, negotiate. Does anybody understand what I’m saying here? Are there any good business people? You don’t have to be a good. Are there any bad business people? They took off of the sanctions. They took off the sanctions. They said, well, we’re going to not have any sanctions. Let’s negotiate a deal. I don’t know, Matt Schlapp, I don’t think you would have done that. Do you think so, Matt? I don’t think so. Mercedes wouldn’t have.
    Donald Trump: (36:27)

    No, you do that, you make a deal, and then you do what they wanted. I will tell you something. And I said it. Had we had a fair election, the results would have been much different, and we would have had a deal. We would have had a deal with Iran within [inaudible 00:36:51]. They wanted those sanctions off of… Took them off for nothing. For nothing. Now you watch how tough they negotiate. In another horrendous surrender, he agreed to get back into the World Health Organization. For approximately $500 million a year, which is what we were paying.
    Donald Trump: (37:12)

    When I withdrew from the WHO, and you know the whole story with that, they called it badly. They really are puppets for China. They called and they wanted us to stay in. I said how much are we paying? Approximately $500 million. How much is China paying? A much larger in terms of population country. Sir, they’re paying $39 million. I said why are we paying 500 million and they’re paying 39. I can tell you why. Because the people that made the deal are stupid. That’s why.
    Donald Trump: (37:44)

    And I had no idea how popular was… I didn’t even know if I would be able to politically because people were so happy when I did get out. But I said, so if we went in, we could get it for 39 million, which is what China, not 500 million, which is what we were stupidly paying. And they said, we can make a deal. We want you to go in. We can make a deal. Okay. And I decided not to do it. But we could have had it for 39. We could have had it for the same as China. And they decide, now to go back into the World Health Organization and pay 500 million. What the hell is wrong with that?
    Donald Trump: (38:26)

    No, no. This is just emblematic. It’s a tremendous amount of money. But compared to trillions, it’s not. But it’s a tremendous amount of money. Why would China pay 39 million and we’re paying almost 500 million? Why? So we could have made the same deal that China had. 39 million. And they just say, we’re going back in. We’re going back into the World Health Organization. They go back in, they pay 500. It is so sad.
    Donald Trump: (38:53)

    Just like the Iran and the World Health Organization, Joe Biden put the United States back into the very unfair and very costly Paris climate accord without negotiating a better deal. They wanted us so badly back in. I’ll tell you they wanted us. I was getting called from all of the countries. You must come back into the Paris accord. I said, tell me why. Give me one good reason.
    Donald Trump: (39:18)

    First of all, China doesn’t kick in for 10 years. Russia goes by an old standard, which was not a clean standard. And other countries, but we get hit right from the beginning. Would have cost us hundreds of thousands and millions of jobs. It was a disaster. But they go back in. I could have made an unbelievable deal and got back in, but I didn’t want to do that. Surrendering millions of jobs and trillions of dollars to all of these other countries. Almost all of them that were in the deal. So they have favorable treatment. We don’t have favorable treatment. And we just said, we’re going back in. To go back in, they wanted us so badly, you could’ve negotiated. If you wanted to go back in [inaudible 00:39:58] the cleanest air, the cleanest water and everything else that we’ve ever had. So I don’t know why we have to.
    Donald Trump: (40:03)

    And what good does it do when we’re clean, but China’s not, and Russia’s not, and India’s not. So they’re pouring fumes. You know, the world is actually a small [inaudible 00:40:18], right? They’re pouring fumes and we’re trying to protect everything and building products for three times more than [inaudible 00:40:26] say no. They could have made a great deal. If they were going to go back in, that’s fine. But they could have made a great deal instead of just saying we’re back in. These [inaudible 00:40:35].
    Donald Trump: (40:35)

    And in one of his first official acts, which was incredible, because again, he talked about energy. He never said he was going to do this. He canceled the Keystone XL Pipeline. Destroying [inaudible 00:40:47] or the 9,000 or the 11,000 jobs that you hear. But 42,000 great paying jobs. On just about day one, right? He never talked about that during a debate because he wouldn’t have gotten away with it. Well, he would have because they cheated so much it probably wouldn’t have mattered.
    Donald Trump: (41:11)

    No, but that was not a topic of conversation. Remember? Fracking. You could track. Oh, we love fracking. During the primary, no fracking. As soon as he got through that, he said, no, of course everybody can frack. No fracking. You wait till you see what happens with your gasoline. Wait till you see what happens and we cannot let this stuff continue to go on. One of my proudest accomplishments as president was to make America energy independent. The United States became the number one energy superpower. Number one. Became number one, bigger than Saudi Arabia, bigger than Russia by a lot. We left them all in the dust. They were all on [inaudible 00:42:02]. But if the Democrats have their way, we are heading from energy dominance to energy disaster. That’s what’s happening. You have to see what’s going on. Everything’s being closed up. It’s a disaster. The blackouts we saw in California last summer and all the time. The windmill calamity that we’re witnessing in Texas. Great state of Texas. We love Texas. But it’s so sad when you look at it. That’ll just be the start.
    Donald Trump: (42:31)

    How bad is wind power? So I talk about it all the time at CPAC, right? We went to CPAC. Remember last year, I said, we’re going to watch the president. Alice, the wind isn’t blowing. I don’t believe we’ll have any electricity. Remember we would kid, but I wasn’t actually kidding. It’s such an expensive form of energy. It’s so bad for the environment. It kills the birds. It destroys the landscapes. And remember, these are structural columns with fans on them. They wear out. And when they wear out all over the country, you see them, nobody takes them down. They’re rotting. They’re rusting. How this is environmentally good for our country. And it costs many, many times more than natural gas, which is clean. It costs many more… And can fuel our great [inaudible 00:43:20]. We can’t do that.
    Donald Trump: (43:21)
    And solar, I love solar but it doesn’t have the capacity to do what we have to do to make America great again. Sorry it just doesn’t have it. Under the radical Democrat policies, the price of gasoline has already surged 30% since the election. And we’ll go to $5, $6, $7 and even higher. So enjoy that when you go to the pump. They’ll say, that’ll be about $200 to fill up your van. You’ll go to the… Remember they used to go to the little small vans. They got away from the big ones that everybody wanted. They went to the small ones. Well, you know what? Probably a good investment. As long as these guys have their say, because you know, it’s a shame what’s happening. Energy prices are going to go through the roof. And that includes your electric bills. That includes any bill having to do with energy. Our biggest cost.
    Donald Trump: (44:14)

    We will now be relying on Russia and the Middle East for oil. And they talked about Russia, Russia, Russia. What’s better than what this guy has done for Russia? I had oil where they were actually paying you to take it. Okay. You know, I was… Remember they were going to give you 37 a barrel, but you got to take it away. You had free oil almost for a period of time and one way I was proud of it, but we also had to save the energy industry and it worked out well. And I dealt with Russia [inaudible 00:44:39] and they cut back on production. And we got it back up. But now it’s going the opposite because now they’re taking this incredible energy independence away from the people of our country. And you’re going to see costs go like you have never seen them go before. It’s a very sad and very stupid thing that they’re doing. The Biden policies are a massive win for other oil producing countries. And a loss for the United States and our great citizens.
    Donald Trump: (45:07)

    Joe Biden and the Democrats are even pushing policies that would destroy women’s sports. A lot of new records are being broken in women’s sports. Hate to say that ladies, but got a lot of new records, they’re being shattered. [inaudible 00:45:28] the weightlifting. Every ounce was like a big deal for many years. All of a sudden somebody comes along and beats it by a hundred [inaudible 00:45:36]. Young girls and women are in sex that they are now being forced to compete against those who are biological males. It’s not good for women. It’s not good for women’s sports, which worked so long and so hard to get to where they are. The records that stood for years, even decades, are now being smashed with [inaudible 00:46:00]. Smashed. If this does not change, women’s sports, as we know it, will die. They’ll end. It’ll end.
    Donald Trump: (46:07)

    What coach, if I’m a coach, I want to be a great coach. What coach, as an example, wants to recruit a young woman to compete if her record can easily be broken by somebody who was born a man. Not too many of those coaches around, right? They are around, they won’t be around long because they’re going to have a big problem when their record is… We’re 0 and 16, but we’re getting better. No, I think it’s crazy. I think it’s just crazy what’s happening. We must protect the integrity of women’s sports. So important. Have to.
    Donald Trump: (46:39)

    And I don’t even know, is that controversial? Somebody said well, that’s going to be very controversial. I said, that’s okay. You haven’t heard anything yet. As you can see, the early weeks of the Biden administration of nothing less than they’ve been a catastrophe for American workers and for American families. [inaudible 00:47:23] of our mission. And for us, it’s our movement. As I said, a movement, like has never been seen. I think we can probably say, never been seen anywhere in the world. And nobody’s ever seen a movement like this. I’d grow out and I’d watch somebody who came in second in New Hampshire or first in Iowa and that was the end and they became famous for the rest of their lives. We won the election twice. I mean you know think about it. The task for our movement and our party is to stand up to this destructive agenda with confidence and with resolve.
    Donald Trump: (48:02)

    … this destructive agenda with confidence and with resolve. The future of the Republican Party is as a party that defends the social, economic, and cultural interests and values of working American families of every race, color, and creed. That’s why the party is growing so rapidly and is becoming a different party. And it’s becoming a party of love. You have to see outside the streets. I mean, there’s such love. The flags … Amazing.
    Audience: (48:53)
    USA. USA. USA. USA. USA. USA.
    Donald Trump: (48:53)

    That’s right. Now it’s a party that’s incredible. The people, the spirit, and there are, as you probably heard a little while ago, I mean, there’s more spirit now than there’s ever been, including even before the election. More sprit now than we’ve ever seen, because people are seeing how bad it can be. And again, I want to thank Rush and Kathryn because what he did to get the word out has been incredible. Some people are irreplaceable as Sean Hannity would say, and he said, “Rush is replaceable,” but his spirit lives on and that’s something that we need and we love.
    Donald Trump: (49:27)

    Republicans believe that the deeds of every citizen must come first. In fact, America must come first. We don’t put it first. They don’t put it first. Over the past four years my administration delivered for Americans of all backgrounds like never before, like never before. We built the strongest economy in the history of the world, raised wages, and achieved the lowest African American, Hispanic American, Asian American unemployment rates ever, ever, ever recorded. It was so great for everybody of all backgrounds that even after the China virus, we are leading the world, nobody’s even close. We’re leading it in the comeback. Our economic comeback has been incredible. That’s because the financial and economic foundation we built was so strong that unlike other countries, who are having a hard time, we didn’t break. We came roaring back and now our stock market and your 401ks are again at record levels, higher than ever before actually.
    Donald Trump: (50:39)

    Many people have asked what is Trumpism, a new term being used more and more. I’m hearing that term more and more. I didn’t come up with it, but what it means is great deals, great trade deals, great ones, not deals where we give away everything, our jobs, money. Like the USMCA replacement of the horrible NAFTA. NAFTA was one of the worst deals ever made, probably the worst trade deal ever made. And we ended it. You know, a lot of people forget, we ended it. Now we have the USMCA, Mexico, Canada. It’s incredible what it’s done for our farmers who are doing fantastically. Did you see grain prices and grain sales are at an all time high? Wheat, all time high. So many elements of farms and farmers, and they love me. And remember, it’s going to be very close in Iowa. Well, it wasn’t close. We won a landslide, Iowa, because our farmers know, and they put up with it and we did a lot of work with the tariffs and all these things that we had to do to get it, and now the farmers are doing great. But they’re setting records.
    Donald Trump: (51:42)

    It means low taxes and eliminated job killing regulations, Trumpism. It means strong borders, but people coming into our country based on a system of merit. So they come in and they can help us as opposed to coming here and not being good for us, including criminals, of which there are many, it means no riots in the streets. It means law enforcement. It means very strong protection for the second amendment and the right to keep and bear arms. It means support for the forgotten men and women who have been taken advantage of for so many years. And they were doing great, they were doing great before that horrible thing from China came in and hit us. And now they’re starting to do really well again. If you think about it, we built the economy twice. We built a then and then like every other country in the world, it went down and then we built it again. Now it’s higher in many ways, certainly in the stock pocket, it’s higher in many ways than it was before. That’s because of the foundation and no country comes even close to competing with our comeback.
    Donald Trump: (53:04)

    And it means a strong military and taking care of our vets, but a strong military, which we have totally rebuilt, we have rebuilt it. And our military has never been stronger than it is today. It was tired, it was depleted, it was obsolete. And now we have the best brand new equipment ever made and it was all produced right here in the USA. Isn’t that nice? And we take care of our vets. We had a call recently just before leaving office, the vets had a 91% approval rating for the way we took care of them. It’s the highest number in the history of the polls. The vet polls. On top of all of that, we have even created the Space Force, the first new branch of the United States in nearly 75 years. The mission of the Democrat Party is to promote socialism. They want to promote socialism, ultimately leading unfortunately to communism. And that will happen. If you look at Venezuela, you look at some of these countries, that’s why some of our biggest supporters are from South America, Latin America, because they’ve seen what goes on with all of this cancel culture and you can’t speak it, and let’s cut them off, and let’s not give them words.
    Donald Trump: (54:29)

    The mission of our movement and of the Republican Party must be to create a future of good jobs, strong family, safe communities, a vibrant culture, and a great nation for all Americans. And that’s what we’re creating. Their party is based upon unvarnished disdain for America, its past, and its people. You see that happening. It’s horrible the way they treat the legacy of our country, the culture of our country. Our party is based on love for America and the belief that this is an exceptional nation blessed by God.
    Donald Trump: (55:19)

    We take great pride in our country. We teach the truth about history. We celebrate our rich heritage and national traditions. We honor George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, and all national heroes. And of course, we respect our great American flag. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.
    Audience: (56:23)

    We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you.
    Donald Trump: (56:23)

    Thank you.
    Audience: (56:23)

    We love you. We love you. We love you. We love you.
    Donald Trump: (56:26)

    Thank you very much. So nice. I started that hearing, we really where … we’re getting word of that, hearing that during some of the rallies, especially the latter rallies where we set records. We had 56 unbelievable packed rallies. And nobody’s ever had anything that we had. And we started hearing, “We love you.” And I asked somebody because we really like Ronald Reagan, right? He was a great president. We had others. But I said, “Did anybody ever say that to Ronald Reagan or to any of our great … .” And to the best of all of these political professionals’ knowledge and pollsters. Nobody’s ever heard that yet before, man. So it’s an honor. Believe me, it’s an honor. Great honor. That’s a great honor. When you think about, we love you. When you’re saying that about … I hate to say it, am I a politician? I don’t know. Maybe I’m a politician. I hate to admit it, but it’s an honor that you would say.
    Donald Trump: (57:23)

    We believe in patriotic education and strongly oppose the radical indoctrination of Americans youth. It’s horrible. We are committed to defending innocent life and to upholding the Judeo-Christian values of our founders and our founding. We have raised free thought, we stand up to political correctors, and we reject left wing lunacy. And in particular we reject cancel culture. We know that the rule of law is the ultimate safeguard. And we affirm that the constitution means exactly what it says, as written, as written. They want to change it. They want to change it. They want to get rid of it, frankly. We believe in law and order and we believe that the men and women of law enforcement are heroes who truly deserve our absolute support. We don’t defund the police. We are not defunding the police.
    Donald Trump: (58:50)

    We believe in standing up to China, shutting down outsourcing, bringing back our factories and supply chains, and ensuring that America not China dominates the future of the world. So it’s going to happen. And by the way, we took in hundreds of billions of dollars from China during my administration, hundreds of … and they never gave us 25 cents. It was a one-way street. We took in hundreds of billions and during negotiations, they would say, “Look, the one thing, we don’t want any more of these tariffs. These tariffs … .” Those tariffs, we took in so much money. And what happened is they became competitive. So what happened with the people, they wouldn’t go to China. They built a lot of it back in our country. They would make it here instead. And in addition to that, we were taking in billions and billions and billions of dollars from China.
    Donald Trump: (59:44)

    But in all fairness to China, we made a trade deal with them, this was prior to COVID. And once COVID happened, I no longer cared so much about the great deal, because what happened with that was just disgraceful. But that’s one of the things, that’s one of the reasons that right now our farmers are doing so good. I used to tell China, “Look, look, go and get lot of wheat. Get a lot of different things. All of the things we just talked about, you better go out and do it because this country has not been treated fairly by you for many, many years. Many, many years.” We used to lose $504 billion trade deficit with China. 500, not million, $504 million is a lot, right? You know that through the World Health Organization. Now take 504 million, make it $504 billion. We had deficits with China. It was absolutely insane that this could keep going on. It’s amazing that you still have a country left. The people that did this to our country, they should be ashamed of themselves. They should be ashamed of themselves.
    Donald Trump: (01:00:48)

    Companies that leave America to create jobs in China and other countries that have ripped us off for years, should not be rewarded. They should be tarriffed, fined, and punished. They should not be rewarded. And that’s what the Biden administration is doing. But of course, as you know, they have a very close, personal relationship with China. So I don’t expect much to happen. It’s a shame because it really is a threat. It’s a tremendous economic threat. And thank God we’ve rebuilt our military, but it’s a tremendous economic threat. Never forget it.
    Donald Trump: (01:01:31)

    These are the convictions that define our movement today and must define the Republican Party in the years ahead. Very simple, it’s really quite simple, isn’t it?
    Donald Trump: (01:01:42)

    Another one of the most urgent issues facing the Republican Party is that of ensuring fair, honest, and secure elections. Such a disgrace. Such a disgrace. Such a disgrace. We must pass comprehensive election reforms and we must do it now. The democrats use the China virus as an excuse to change all of the election rules without the approval of their state legislatures, making it therefore illegal. It had a massive impact on the election. Again, you have to go to the legislatures to get these approvals. This alone would have easily changed the outcome of the election at levels that you wouldn’t have even believed. Even with COVID, even with all of the things, the numbers are staggering. We can never let this or other abuses of the 2020 election be repeated or happen again. Can never let that happen again.
    Donald Trump: (01:03:05)

    You see what’s going on. We’ve been set back so greatly with other countries and with the world. We need election integrity and election reform immediately. Republicans should be the party of honest elections that can give everyone confidence in the future of our country. Without honest elections, who has confidence? Who has confidence? This issue is being studied and examined, but the reality is you cannot have a situation where ballots are indiscriminately pouring in from all over the country, tens of millions of ballots, where are they coming from? They’re coming all over the place. We’re illegal aliens and dead people are voting, and many other horrible things are happening that are too voluminous to even mention. But people know. I mean it’s being studied and the level of dishonesty is not to be believed.
    Donald Trump: (01:04:02)

    We have a very sick and corrupt electoral process that must be fixed immediately. This election was rigged and the supreme court and other courts didn’t want to do anything about it.
    Audience: (01:04:12)

    You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won. You won.
    Donald Trump: (01:04:12)

    We did.
    Audience: (01:04:12)

    You won. You won. You won. You won. You won.
    Donald Trump: (01:04:44)

    If you just take that one element where they didn’t go through a legislature, it’s illegal, you can’t do it. It’s in the constitution. They didn’t have the courage, the supreme court, they didn’t have the courage to act, but instead used process and lack of standing. I was told the President of the United States has no standing. It’s my election, it’s your election. We have no standing. We had almost 25 … if you think of it … we had almost 20 states go into the supreme court so that we didn’t have a standing problem. They rejected it. They rejected it. They should be ashamed of themselves for what they’ve done to our country. They didn’t have the guts or the courage to make the right decision. They didn’t want to talk about it. We had the case led by the great State of Texas. 18 States went in. “You don’t have standing.” Let’s not talk about it. They didn’t have the guts to do what should be done.
    Donald Trump: (01:05:54)

    And that’s on top of all of these other forms of cheating, but this is the most basic of all. They would have local courts and local politicians change the rules in some cases a day or two before the election. This should never be allowed to happen to another presidential candidate or presidential race, should never be allowed to happen.
    Donald Trump: (01:06:15)

    Today I want to outline the steps that we must take to have an election system in this country that is honest, fair, and accurate. We need one election day, not 45, 30. One day, like it’s been. And the republicans don’t get this, and the other things I’m going to say, that you should, like the supreme court, be ashamed of yourselves. One day. One day. And the only people that should be allowed to vote by mail are people that can be proven to be either very sick or out of the country or military where they can’t do it. One day. They have millions and millions of ballots sitting around all over the place for long periods of time. Gee, I wonder what happens with those ballots? I wonder what happens. It’s common sense. It’s a disgrace. It’s an absolute disgrace.
    Donald Trump: (01:07:26)

    There should be a legitimate reason for someone to vote absentee, has to have a reason. We should eliminate the insanity of the mass and very corrupt mail-in voting. We must have voter ID. voter ID. To get into the Democratic National Convention, when they had the convention, you needed voter ID. You needed an ID card. You couldn’t get it unless you had an ID. So many people told me, “You can’t get in that place. You need ID. Nobody had ID.” You need voter ID. They know that. This is a con job. They’re conning everybody. They know that. They know the wall was good. They knew the wall would work, but didn’t want to have it because we wanted. I made one big mistake in the world. I should have said, “We will not have a wall.” And then they would have said, “Let’s build a wall.” I made a big mistake. I made a big mistake. I’m sorry. It took us a year and a half extra because of that mistake. “We will not have a wall.” “We need a wall immediately,” said Chuck Schumer.
    Donald Trump: (01:08:48)

    We need universal signature matching. They want to pass a bill where you don’t have to match signatures, where signatures don’t mean anything. Now they know it’s … just like with the wall, just like with voter ID, when you need to go into anything that’s Democrat run, you need it. But for voting, which is our most sacred institution, they don’t want to let you have it.
    Donald Trump: (01:09:13)
    There should be a 100% requirement to verify the citizenship of every person who votes and there must be a chain of custody protections for every ballot. Every ballot. And you saw what happened in Detroit and Philadelphia and many other places, swing states mostly. All over, but swing states mostly. You saw what happened. You saw what was going on. You saw that more people … you take a look at the votes, when you have more votes than you have people, that’s a problem, right? Is that a problem? We have a little problem adjusting in Detroit. We seem to have more votes than we have people, a lot more votes, and election changing number. We’re not talking about a number where you can’t … no, these aren’t election changing numbers. In Pennsylvania, they had hundreds of thousands of more votes than they had people voting. What’s that all about? What’s that all about? Cheating they say. Yeah, I’d say so.
    Donald Trump: (01:10:25)
    In the history of our country, and it has taken place for years in Pennsylvania and Detroit and various other places. But there’s tremendous, never like this, because they used COVID as a way of cheating. That’s what happened. And everybody knows it. Hundreds of thousands and millions of ballots. They used it as a way of getting what they’ve wanted for many years. And the republicans have to do something about it. They better do something about it. Our election process is worse than that in many cases of a third world country. You know that, you saw what was going on. Even if you consider nothing else, it is undeniable that election rules were illegally changed at the last minute in almost every swing state with the procedures rewritten by local politicians … you’re not allowed to do that … and local judges. They want more time, they want this, they want that. All done by local politicians or local judges, as opposed to state legislatures as required by the Constitution of the United States. And these are just numbers that are massive. These aren’t little numbers, these are numbers that in each state is a transformative number. It changes the outcome of the election. And it’s not close. Regardless of your political views, this should concern you as a constitutional matter. And the supreme court, again, didn’t have the guts or the courage to do anything about it. And neither did other judges. And democrats even admitted in Time-
    Donald Trump: (01:12:03)

    And Democrats even admitted in Time Magazine, which is, I would say on the liberal side. They just couldn’t hold it in. They had to brag about it, because what they did, they had to brag about it. They couldn’t do it. You’ve got to read this story. It’s a disaster. It’s a disaster for our country that we can allow something so corrupt to happen. Read that article. I really encourage you. You read that article. Yet all of the election integrity measures in the world will mean nothing if we don’t have free speech and that’s where we’re at now.
    Donald Trump: (01:12:38)

    If Republicans can be censored for speaking the truth and calling out corruption, we will not have democracy and we will have only left wing tyranny. And we can do this. We can do this. We’re smarter than they are. We’re tougher than they are. For some reason we just don’t… we don’t get it done. We let them attack our businesses and we don’t attack their businesses. I believe your numbers are bigger than their numbers, but you’re nicer than they are. You’re not as vicious as they are.
    Donald Trump: (01:13:10)

    In the past, we would debate. I would have it. I debate. You’ve seen me for many years. They throw something. I debate. They debate. Who knows who wins? People go. They vote. They see what happens. But they would have an idea. They would disagree. The public would hear it. The debate and discourse would take place. And then somebody would make a decision. You would win. You would lose. The public would make up its mind. But now there isn’t a debate because they refuse to allow our side to even speak or be heard. They don’t want debate because we have easy victories in a debate, very easy victories. It’s called common sense. It’s called other things, but it’s called common sense. So they don’t want to debate.
    Donald Trump: (01:13:53)

    The time has come to break up big tech monopolies and restore fair competition. Republicans, conservatives must open up more platforms and repeal Section 230 Liability Protection. And if the federal government refuses to act, then every state in the union where we have the votes… which is a lot of them… Big tech giants, like Twitter, Google and Facebook should be punished with major sanctions whenever they silence conservative voices. And Governor Ron Desantis of Florida, and in Texas and other states are doing this. If they do what they’re doing, Florida… And that legislation will pass and Texas and others will have tremendous power to do what’s right and what’s fair.
    Donald Trump: (01:15:09)

    We have no time to waste. Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats in Congress are racing to pass a flagrantly unconstitutional attack on the First Amendment and the integrity of our elections known as HR One. Do you know what HR one is? It’s a disaster. Their bill would drastically restrict political speech, empower the federal government to shut down dissent and turn the federal election commission into a partisan political weapon. In addition, it virtually eliminates voter ID requirements nationwide. Effectively ends all registration deadlines. Can you believe this? Requires states to give ballots to felons. Automatically registers every welfare recipient to vote and puts unaccountable unelected bureaucrats in charge of drawing congressional districts. That’s going to be a lot of fun. This monster must be stopped. It cannot be allowed to pass.
    Donald Trump: (01:16:10)

    Now more than ever is the time for tough, strong, and energetic Republican leaders who have spines of steel. We need strong leadership. We cannot have leaders who show more passion for condemning their fellow Americans than they have ever shown for standing up to Democrats, the media and the radicals who want to turn America into a socialist country. Instead of attacking me and more importantly, the voters of our movement, top establishment Republicans in Washington should be spending your energy and opposing Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and the Democrats. I’ve said to some of them, I said, “You know, during the Obama years, and now during Biden, if you spent the same energy on attacking them, you’d actually be successful as you do on attacking me in many cases.”
    Donald Trump: (01:17:14)

    The Democrats don’t have grand-standers like Mitt Romney, little Ben Sasse, Richard Burr, Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Pat Toomey; and in the House, Tom Rice, South Carolina, Adam Kinzinger, Dan Newhouse, Anthony Gonzalez. That’s another beauty. Fred Upton, Jamie Herrera Butler, Peter Meyer, John Katko, David Valadeo. And of course the warmonger, a person that loves seeing our troops fighting, Liz Cheney. How about that? The good news is in her state, she’s been censured. And in her state, her poll numbers have dropped faster than any human being I’ve ever seen. So hopefully, they’ll get rid of her with the next election. Get rid of them all.
    Donald Trump: (01:18:22)

    Democrats are vicious. Remember this. It’s true. Democrats are vicious. He said evil. Well, there is evil there, but they’re vicious. They’re smart. And they do one thing. You’ve got to hand it to them. They always stick together. You don’t have Mitt Romney’s in the group. They always stick together. Fortunately for the Republican party, the Democrats have horrible policies like open borders, sanctuary cities, defunding the police and the ridiculous, totally ridiculous Green New Deal. So they stick together. They’re smart. They’re vicious. They’ve got everything going, but their policies are no good. So hence we have, congratulations, the Republican Party. After this, they may not stick with those policies. We have to be careful. No, their policies are horrible. Think of it. Defund the police. How did that work out?
    Donald Trump: (01:19:24)

    But the Republicans do not stick together. The RINOs that we’re surrounded with will destroy the Republican Party and the American worker and will destroy our country itself. The RINOs, Republican in name only. But the Republican Party is united. The only division is between a handful of Washington, DC, establishment, political hacks, and everybody else all over the country. I think we have tremendous unity. When you look at the crowds outside that want your seat so badly. They will take your seat in two seconds. They want your seat. Congratulations. Congratulations on getting in, by the way. I’m very proud.
    Donald Trump: (01:20:14)

    And that’s why I’m announcing that I will be actively working to elect strong, tough and smart Republican leaders. Speaking of that, I heard Jim Jordan did a great job. I heard that from Mark Meadows. I heard it. Oh, there he is. Look at that. Hi Jim. I heard you were great. In fact, I hated to follow you. I want to follow other people. I could name them too. I like to follow other people. I heard you were great. Thank you, Jim, very much. Jim Jordan, great, great athlete. People don’t know he was a great wrestler, tremendous numbers of victories. The NC… He was a champion. He was college champion for a long period of time. He’s a winner and a leader and he doesn’t play games. He likes to win. He likes to win. And we have a lot of people in our party that like to win, Jim. Right? But I heard you were great. Thank you very much.
    Donald Trump: (01:21:38)

    We want Republican leaders who are loyal to the voters and who will work proudly for the vision that I’ve laid out today. And what is it? So simple. So simple. Military, law and order, great trade deals, great education. So simple. I don’t know. Does anybody get it? What are they doing? Does anybody get it? It has just been stated that President Trump’s endorsement is the most powerful asset in politics. You believe that? Who would’ve thought that was going to happen? Who would’ve thought that was going to happen, Jim? In last year’s congressional primaries, 120… Listen to this. It’s crazy. 120 of 122 candidates I endorsed won… 120. That’s almost as good as Jim’s wrestling record. And the two that lost were beaten by people claiming to be more Trump than their opponent. So I like those two people very much also.
    Donald Trump: (01:22:40)

    In the Senate, I was undefeated in endorsements with a record of 21 and 0. My endorsement of Mitch McConnell, at his request… It’s all right. It’s all right. He made a request. He asked for my endorsement. Brought him from one point down to 20 points up and he won his race in the great state and actually the great Commonwealth of Kentucky. And he won it. And he won it very easily. And I said, “I wonder if I’m doing the right thing here?” But you know what? I did… I did what I did. But he went from one point down to 20 points up very quickly, immediately actually. And he won his race. And if you compare that to his other elections, I’m sure you’ll see something interesting. But you know what? We got a Republican elected. And now we have to use Republicans to take care of the election frauds and all of the other things that are happening that shouldn’t be allowed to happen in our country. It’s very simple.
    Donald Trump: (01:23:45)

    Because of my efforts campaigning, we had huge gains in the House. And I helped keep many senators in their seats and they will admit it. So that it’s now 50/50, instead of Republicans being down anywhere from eight to 10 seats. And they’ll admit it. We’d be down eight to 10 seats if I didn’t campaign. We held rallies for some of the senators that went down and nobody talks about that. Nobody wants to talk. The press doesn’t talk about it. With me at the top of the ticket, not a single Republican member of Congress lost their race. For the first time in decades, we won 26 of 26 toss up races, toss ups. Think of that, 26 of 26. And those are toss ups. Those are races that could go any way. We were expected to lose 25 seats. And instead we won 15 seats and almost… Oh, why couldn’t we have done a couple of more? Almost cost Crazy Nancy her job. We’ll do that the next time around.
    Donald Trump: (01:24:55)

    I received almost… Listen to this number. Because the fake news doesn’t ever talk about these numbers. I just heard this one for the first time. I received almost 1.5 million more votes than all of the Republican House candidates combined. So how the hell is it possible that we lost? It’s not possible. I got more votes. I got more. And which it isn’t just me. When I say, “I,” I am talking about we. We, we got more votes than any incumbent, any incumbent president in the history of our country, almost 75 million votes. And that doesn’t include the votes and ballots they threw out. If you include them, you’ll see numbers that are much different. We did even better in the second election than we did in the first. I won the first. We won the second. We did much better. Sort of strange, right? “How did you do?” “Well we did much better the second time.” “Oh, you did, really?”
    Donald Trump: (01:25:55)

    What a disgrace, what a disgrace to our country. I got over 11 million, very close to 12 million more votes than we got in 2016. And I was told by John McLaughlin that if… a great poster… That if you get to si- we had 63 in 2016, 63 million. “Sir, if you get to 66 million you have it made.” We got to almost 75 million and what the hell happened? What happened? What happened when they closed all of the counting booths? What happened at three o’clock in the morning? What happened at 3:02 in the morning? What happened? No President has ever lost an election after carrying Florida, Ohio, and Iowa. And I won them all and I won them by a lot, by a lot. I won 94% of the primary vote. No incumbent President who received more than 75% of the primary vote has ever lost an election. I had a record number. And no President has ever, ever… We’re talking about a much lower number than we got… Has ever lost an election.
    Donald Trump: (01:27:12)

    Thanks to my coattails… Thank you. We have to have a sense of humor. Thanks to my coattails, democrats failed to flip a single state legislature… Think of it… Or a legislative chamber because Republicans came out to vote for me. Now they say it differently. The press, the fake news spins it differently. They say, “Despite how well they did, Trump didn’t win.” That’s such a lie. And many legislators, many legislators told me, they said, they’re going to lose their race. Wasn’t going to happen.
    Donald Trump: (01:27:49)

    And then what happened is one in particular told me from a great swing state said, “You know, I thought I was going to lose my position, lose my race. And I went out with my wife the night before the election. And I saw all these Trump signs and the American flags and the spirit on the streets. I said, ‘You know, darling, I think we’re going to win.'”He said, “But you were far, far, far more popular than me.” They do lots of polls. “You were way, way ahead of me, sir. And the next day I was right.” He said he won the election by a lot, “And you lost the election. And sir, it’s not possible that you lost because you’ve got a lower number than I did. And you were so far ahead of me. You are the person that brought everybody out to vote.” And I happen to agree with that 1,000%. Never forget that conversation. He couldn’t believe it. And I’ve it from more than one.
    Donald Trump: (01:28:45)

    And in November, 18 of 19 Bellwether County’s… You heard about the Bellwether County’s… 18 of 19 Bellwether County’s that have correctly predicted every Presidential election for decades, many decades, voted for Trump, not for Biden. And it was a shocker to those people that go for the stats. It was a shocker. They voted for Trump. 18 of 19 voted for Trump. There’s never been anything like that. And yet, did Biden win? No.
    Donald Trump: (01:29:21)

    If you want to help us take back the future of our country, go to donaldjtrump.com. I don’t do this. I’ve never done this. But it’s time that we have to put forces together because these people with their big tech and the fake news media right back there. Okay. And when you talk about election, they turn off. When you talk about… They probably have them going, because they also care about ratings. But when they talk about election, they turn off the cameras. You know why? It’s a very sore subject. Okay? They don’t like that subject. There’s only one way to contribute to our efforts, to elect America first Republican conservatives. And in turn, to make America great again. And that’s through Save America PAC and donaldjtrump.com. So go out there and do whatever you can because we’re going to help a lot of great people.
    Donald Trump: (01:30:10)

    We know the right people to help. We need your help to win and to fight big tech and the radical left and the DC establishment. We need to save your Second Amendment, which is under siege. We need to help protect funding for our military and for our great vets. And that’s what we’re doing. As we discussed earlier, we’re in a struggle for the survival of America as we know it. This is a struggle. This is a terrible, terrible, painful struggle. The path ahead will not be easy, but we will win. We are going to win. Ultimately we always win. And when we do, history will show that this was the moment when we could have given up, when we could have despaired, but instead we chose to keep on pushing forward. The greater the challenge and tougher the task, the more determined we must be to pull through to triumph. We have to have triumph. We have to have victory.
    Donald Trump: (01:31:13)

    With the talent and dedication of everyone here today… And you have tremendous, not only dedication, tremendous talent in this room. I know many of you. That is exactly what we will do. We will go on to victory. We will summon the spirit of generations of American patriots before us, like those heroes who crossed the Delaware, conquered the Rockies, stormed the beaches, won the battles and tamed the unknown frontiers. We will persist and we will prevail. We’re tougher than they are. We’re stronger than they are. Together, in the coming years, we will carry forward the torch of American liberty. We will lead the conservative movement and the Republican Party back to a totally conclusive victory. And we’ve had tremendous victories. Don’t ever forget it. With your help, we will take back the House. We will win the Senate. And then a Republican President will make a triumphant return to the White House. And I wonder who that will be? I wonder who that will be. Who, who will that be? I wonder.
    Donald Trump: (01:32:44)

    Standing before you today, I am supremely confident that for our movement, for our party and for our country, our brightest days are just ahead. And that together we will make America prouder, freer, stronger and greater than it ever has been before. Thank you, CPAC. God bless you and God bless America. Thank you all. Thank you. Thank you.

    • Không lập đảng mới. Lọc máu Cộng Hòa
    • Có thể "run" lại vào 2024
    • Lên án mọi sắc lịnh hành pháp của Biden đã làm quốc gia tổn thất ra sao

    *******************************************

    �� WHO sẽ lãnh đạo CH vào 2024: Trump kết thúc bài phát biểu bằng cách hỏi "ai" sẽ lãnh đạo GOP vào năm 2024. Trump dự đoán một tổng thống Đảng Cộng hòa sẽ giành lại Tòa Bạch Ốc và kết thúc với một gợi ý có thể sẽ "run" vào năm 2024.

    �� Lọc máu CH: " các đảng viên Dân chủ đã gắn bó với nhau, và đảng viên Cộng hòa cần 'những cái gai bằng thép.' Chúng ta không thể có những nhà lãnh đạo đam mê lên án đồng bào Mỹ của họ hơn những người họ từng đứng lên chống lại đảng Dân chủ, giới truyền thông và những người cấp tiến muốn biến nước Mỹ thành một nước xã hội chủ nghĩa."

    Những cái tên này phải loại bỏ: trong Thượng viện: Sens. Mitt Romney, Ben Sasse, Richard Burr, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Pat Toomey. Ở Hạ Viện (Tom Rice, Adam Kinzinger, Anthony Gonzalez, Fred Upton, Peter Mayer, John Katko và Liz Cheney).

    �� Các biện pháp trừng phạt chống lại 'Big Tech': "Đã đến lúc phá bỏ các công ty độc quyền Big Tech và khôi phục sự cạnh tranh công bằng. Đảng Cộng hòa và những người bảo thủ phải mở ra nền tảng của chúng tôi và bãi bỏ các biện pháp bảo vệ trách nhiệm pháp lý theo mục 230 . Những gã khổng lồ công nghệ lớn như Google và Facebook phải bị trừng phạt bằng các biện pháp trừng phạt bất cứ khi nào họ bịt miệng những tiếng nói bảo thủ ”.

    �� Trump kêu gọi 'cải cách bầu cử toàn diện'. Trump khẳng định lại cuộc bầu cử năm 2020, nói rằng đảng Cộng hòa cần phải làm việc cho các cuộc bầu cử công bằng và an toàn. “Chúng ta phải thông qua các cải cách bầu cử toàn diện và chúng ta phải làm điều đó ngay bây giờ - Đảng Dân chủ đã sử dụng Virus Trung Quốc như một cái cớ để thay đổi tất cả các quy tắc bầu cử mà không có sự chấp thuận của cơ quan lập pháp bang của họ - do đó khiến nó trở thành bất hợp pháp”. Đó là bầu cử "gian lận" và cáo buộc các tòa án không làm bất cứ điều gì về nó. Trump đã tuyên bố rằng trên thực tế, ông đã thắng. Đám đông hô vang "Bạn đã thắng, bạn đã thắng."

    �� "Sứ mệnh của phong trào của chúng tôi và đảng Cộng hòa phải là tạo ra một tương lai công ăn việc làm tốt, gia đình vững mạnh, cộng đồng an toàn, nền văn hóa sôi động và một quốc gia tuyệt vời cho tất cả người Mỹ và đó là những gì chúng tôi đang tạo ra."

     

    �� Thể thao nữ: Biden đã cho phép các cá nhân chuyển giới thi đấu trong các môn thể thao nữ - rất nhiều kỷ lục mới đang bị phá vỡ" bởi những người đàn ông chuyển giới.

    �� Trump chỉ trích Biden về chính sách đối ngoại, gia nhập WHO, bỏ lịnh trừng phạt chống lại Iran. Chúng ta đã góp 500 triệu đô la mỗi năm cho WHO còn TC chỉ có 39 triệu

    -�� Lệnh cấm du lịch thời Trump: “Đó là một thành tựu tuyệt vời, nhưng Biden đã tăng số lượng người tị nạn lên gần 10 lần. Trên thực tế, con số này sẽ gấp hàng trăm lần khi hàng triệu người tràn qua biên giới sắp mở của chúng ta”. Gia đình bạn vẫn không thể đi ăn ở các nhà hàng địa phương, nhưng Joe Biden thì đang mang hàng nghìn người tị nạn từ khắp nơi trên thế giới tới

    �� Việc triển khai vắc xin là của chúng tôi. đảng Dân chủ đang "tuân theo kế hoạch của chúng tôi" về vắc-xin COVID.

    -�� Bọn trẻ “phải trở lại [trường học] và quay lại ngay bây giờ. những người di cư ở biên giới đang được giáo dục, nhưng công dân của Mỹ thì không. Biden "bán trẻ em nước Mỹ cho các công đoàn giáo viên. Joe Biden đã phản bội tuổi trẻ của nước Mỹ một cách đáng xấu hổ và anh ta đang giam giữ con cái chúng tôi trong nhà một cách tàn nhẫn, không có lý do gì cả.

     

    ��-"Biden đã thu hồi một lệnh hành pháp đàn áp các thành phố tôn nghiêm đã ra lệnh đóng cửa ICE một cách hiệu quả, ngăn chặn hầu như tất cả các lệnh trục xuất." Biden đang “biến nước Mỹ thành một quốc gia tôn nghiêm. đảng Cộng hòa phải chịu trách nhiệm đối với Biden về việc phá vỡ các thỏa thuận hợp tác về tị nạn với các nước Tam giác phương Bắc. Đảng Cộng hòa phải chịu trách nhiệm đối với Biden về việc phá vỡ các thỏa thuận hợp tác về tị nạn với các nước Tam giác phương Bắc.

    ��- Trump gợi ý về cuộc chạy đua năm 2024, nói rằng ông muốn đánh bại Dems 'lần thứ ba', khẳng định lại rằng mình đã thắng cuộc bầu cử năm 2020

    ��- Trump tấn công Biden về cuộc khủng hoảng biên giới. “Bằng cách loại bỏ một cách liều lĩnh các border, các biện pháp an ninh, các kiểm soát, tất cả những thứ chúng tôi đã áp dụng, và Joe Biden đã gây ra một làn sóng nhập cư bất hợp pháp lớn vào đất nước của chúng ta.

    ��- “Joe Biden đã có tháng đầu tiên thảm hại nhất so với bất kỳ tổng thống nào trong lịch sử hiện đại, chống lại việc làm, chống lại gia đình, chống lại biên giới, chống lại năng lượng, chống lại phụ nữ và phản khoa học. Trong một tháng ngắn ngủi, chúng ta đã đi từ America First đến America Last"

    ��- "Chúng tôi không lập đảng mới. Chúng tôi có Đảng Cộng hòa, và đảng sẽ đoàn kết và mạnh mẽ hơn bao giờ hết.

    ��-Nước Mỹ đang ở giữa một 'cuộc đấu tranh lịch sử' “Khi chúng ta tụ họp tuần này, chúng ta đang ở giữa một cuộc đấu tranh lịch sử vì tương lai của Hoa Kỳ, văn hóa của Hoa Kỳ, các thể chế, biên giới của Hoa Kỳ và các nguyên tắc đáng trân trọng nhất. “An ninh của chúng ta, sự thịnh vượng của chúng ta và bản sắc của chúng ta với tư cách là người Mỹ đang bị đe dọa.
