2 of 129 paragraphs scored.Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All I can say is that the fake news just doesn't get it, do they? They just don't get it. Hello, Charleston. And I'm thrilled to be back in the great state of South Carolina with thousands of hardworking American patriots who believe in faith, family, God, and country. Thank you.
Donald Trump

It was a phenomenal crowd. Only topped by the number of people outside that didn't get in. If anybody would like to give up where you're standing or your sitting, please raise your hand. All right. Let's begin, right. Thank you all very much. This is great. No, they don't get it. You know down the road, they have a rally for the people that are going to be running tomorrow, they're trying to get to a hundred, but they're not going to make it. So I think they're going to set up a roundtable.
Donald Trump
00:01:35-00:02:02 (26 sec)Strong (2.743)
6 of 129 paragraphs scored.You know that's what they do. They sit -- So people want to go to a rally, they end up sitting in a roundtable talking about their definition of impeachment. Crazy, no it's crazy. Crazy. It's a crazy deal. You know the -- the fake news media they've been trying to figure this out for years, they still don't get it though.
Donald Trump
00:02:02-00:02:27 (26 sec)Medium (1.819)
They don't get it. Look at all of those cameras. Look at all those cameras. That's a lot of cameras. That's a lot of cameras, Lindsey and Tim. That's a lot of ca --. They heard you guys were here. They heard Tim was here and that Lindsey was here and then -- And they said we're not going to attend that rally.
Donald Trump
00:02:27-00:03:12 (45 sec)No StressLens
But you know when we heard those two guys plus our great Congressman, they're here. Great Congressman. But this is an incredible time for our nation. We're thrilled to be in the midst of what we call: The Great American Comeback, and that's what it is. Jobs are booming, incomes are soaring, factories are returning, poverty is plummeting, confidence is surging, and we have completely rebuilt the awesome power of the United States military.
Donald Trump
00:03:12-00:03:47 (35 sec)Weak (1.294)
Our country is stronger than ever before. We are stronger, we are better. But while we are building a great future, the radical-left Democrats in Washington are trying to burn it all down. [Audience Boos] They have spent the last three years and I can even go further than that. Three years since the election, but we go before the election, working to erase your ballots and overthrow our democracy.
Donald Trump
00:03:47-00:04:26 (39 sec)Weak (1.369)
But with your help we have exposed the far left's corruption and defeated their sinister schemes and let's see what happens in the coming months. Let's watch. Let's just watch. Very dishonest people. Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus. You know that, right? Coronavirus. They're politicizing it. We did one of the great jobs, you say, "How's President Trump doing?", "Oh, nothing, nothing." They have no clue, they don't have any clue.
Donald Trump
00:04:26-00:04:57 (32 sec)Strong (2.017)
They can't even count their votes in Iowa, they can't even count. No, they can't. They can count their votes. One of my people came up to me and said, "Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia." That didn't work out too well. They couldn't do it. They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation.
Donald Trump
00:04:57-00:05:21 (24 sec)No Signal (0.925)
They tried anything, they tried it over and over, they've been doing it since she got in. It's all turning, they lost. It's all turning, think of it, think of it. And this is their new hoax. But you know we did something that's been pretty amazing. We have 15 people in this massive country and because of the fact that we went early, we went early, we could have had a lot more than that.
Donald Trump
00:05:21-00:06:09 (48 sec)No StressLens
We're doing great. Our country is doing so great. We are so unified. We are so unified. The Republican Party has never ever been unified like it is now. There has never been a movement in the history of our country like we have now. Never been a movement. So a statistic that we want to talk about, go ahead, say USA, it's OK, USA.
Donald Trump

[Audience chants "Four more years"] So a number that nobody heard of that I heard of recently, and I was shocked to hear, 35,000 people on average die each year from the flu. Did anyone know that? Thirty-five thousand, that's a lot of people. It could go to a hundred thousand. It could be 20,000. They say usually a minimum of 27, goes up to 100,000 people a year die, and so far we have lost nobody to coronavirus in the United States.
Donald Trump
00:06:33-00:07:13 (39 sec)Weak (1.409)
Nobody. And it doesn't mean we won't and we are totally prepared. It doesn't mean we won't. But think of it, you hear 35 and 40,000 people and we've lost nobody. You wonder if the press is in hysteria mode. CNN, fake news and the camera just went off. The camera just went off. Turn it back on. Hey, by the way, hold it. Look.
Donald Trump
00:07:13-00:08:26 (73 sec)No StressLens
Look at this, and honestly, all events are like this, it's about us. It's all about us. I wish they'd take the camera. Show the arena, please, show the arena. They never do. [Audience chants "USA"] They never show the arena. You can hear it because when you hear it, that's not 200 people, that's not 100 people, that's thousands and thousands of people, including people [Inaudible]. They always show my face, see that face, they show my face.
Donald Trump
00:08:26-00:08:55 (29 sec)Strong (2.011)
I want to show the arena, not my face, right. How many of you been to -- How many rallies have you gone? Practically everyone, can you believe it? I'm sure your husbands are thrilled, right. They're thrilled? Where are you going tonight? I'm going to another Trump rally. True. Number 114. What do your husbands say about that?
Donald Trump
00:08:55-00:09:21 (26 sec)Medium (1.598)
This group of people. She said, "We don't care." Thank you. Thank you. Democrats will only say horrible things, even though they know we're doing a great job. We're doing a great job with what we have to work with. It's incredible. The Democrats want us to fail so badly, even if their actions -- and you take a look, hurt the people of this country.
Donald Trump
00:09:21-00:09:54 (33 sec)Medium (1.537)
They'll hurt the people, themselves, their wealth, their everything. They're willing to hurt our country in order to say bad, even if they know it's not so. We made an unbelievable deal with Mexico, with Canada, with China, with South Korea with Japan, and if you put a microphone on these people back there like the Academy Awards used to be, not anymore.
Donald Trump
00:09:54-00:10:28 (34 sec)Strong (2.836)
5 of 129 paragraphs scored.Best -- best movie of the year, it's made in South Korea. What's that all about? Best movie. I'm waiting to see the best movie of the year, and it's made -- He said it's garbage. Only in South Carolina, can you say that. Only in South -- You're going to get us in trouble. No, I'm just repeating what he said for the fake news.
Donald Trump
00:10:28-00:10:51 (24 sec)Medium (1.539)
I'm just -- No, but seriously, you know the Academy Awards has gotten way, way down in ratings. You know why? Because they started attacking us and we don't believe in it anymore. That's why. No, but they had the best movie of the year made in South Korea. They make enough stuff for us right and they're good, they're all friends.
Donald Trump
00:10:51-00:11:20 (28 sec)No Signal (0.283)
Take advantage of us. That's OK, not so much anymore. We are magnificently -- We are really, you take a look, magnificently organized with the best professionals in the world. We're prepared for the absolute worst. You have to be prepared for the worst, but hopefully, it will all amount to very little. That's why I tell you when we have the flu with 35,000 people, and this one is, we have to take it very, very seriously.
Donald Trump
00:11:20-00:11:49 (29 sec)Weak (1.207)
That's what we're doing -- We are preparing for the worst. My administration has taken the most aggressive action in modern history to prevent the spread of this illness in the United States. We are ready. We are ready. Totally ready. On January 31st, I ordered the suspension of foreign nationals, who have recently been in China from entering the United States.
Donald Trump
00:11:49-00:12:17 (28 sec)Weak (1.242)
An action which the Democrats loudly criticized and protested, and now everybody's complimenting me, saying, "Thank you very much. You are 100% correct." Could have been a whole different story. But I say, "So let's get this right. A virus starts in China, bleeds its way into various countries all around the world.
Donald Trump
00:12:17-00:12:40 (23 sec)Weak (1.329)
Doesn't spread widely at all in the United States because of the early actions that myself and my administration took against a lot of other wishes." And the Democrats single point -- talking point and you say it's -- is that it's Donald Trump's fault, right. It's Donald Trump's fault. No, just things that happened.
Donald Trump
00:12:40-00:13:02 (21 sec)No Signal (0.972)
But you know what, this does show things happen. Whoever thought of this two weeks ago? Who would've thought this could be going on four weeks ago. You wouldn't. But things happen in life and you have to be prepared and you have to be flexible and you have to be able to go out and get it. And my guys -- we have the best professionals in the world, the best in the world and we are so ready.
Donald Trump
00:13:02-00:13:31 (30 sec)Medium (1.917)
At the same time that I initiated the first federally mandated quarantine in over 50 years, we had to quarantine some people, they weren't happy. They weren't happy about it. I want to tell you. There are a lot of people that are not so happy, but after two weeks they got happy. You know who got happy? The people around them got happy, that's who got it. I also created a White House virus Task Force.
Donald Trump
00:13:31-00:13:53 (22 sec)No Signal (0.894)
It's a big thing, a virus Task Force, I requested $2.5 billion to ensure we have the resources we need. The Democrats said, "That's terrible. he's doing the wrong thing. He needs eight and a half billion, not two and a half." I've never had that before. Yes for two and a half, they want to give me eight and a half, so I said I'll take it. Does that make me bad?
Donald Trump
00:13:53-00:14:28 (35 sec)Strong (2.16)
9 of 129 paragraphs scored.I'll take it. I'll take it. I've never had that before. I never had it. We won two and a half million. That's plenty. "We demand you take eight and a half. He doesn't know what he's doing. We want eight and half. These people are crazy. We must understand that border security is also health security. And you've all seen the wall has gone up like magic.
Donald Trump
00:14:28-00:14:52 (24 sec)Weak (1.226)
It has gone up like magic. You think that was an easy one? That was not an easy one. It's going up great and it's -- we're up now. One hundred and thirty-two miles. And this is the exact wall that border security wanted, everything. This is everything they wanted. One hundred and thirty-two miles already.
Donald Trump
00:14:52-00:15:17 (25 sec)Weak (1.007)
We'll have 500 miles built by very early next year, some time, so -- One of the reasons the numbers are so good. We will do everything in our power to keep the infection and those carrying the infection from entering our country. We have no choice. Whether it's the virus that we're talking about or many other public health threats.
Donald Trump
00:15:17-00:15:44 (27 sec)No Signal (0.987)
The Democrat policy of open borders is a direct threat to the health and well-being of all Americans. Now you see it with the coronavirus, you see it. You see it with the coronavirus. You know, you see that. When you have this virus or any other virus or any other problem coming in, it's not the only thing that comes in through the border and we're setting records now at the border, we're setting records.
Donald Trump
00:15:44-00:16:10 (27 sec)Strong (2.114)
And now just using this, so important, right, so important. I'm doing well in the polls, despite the worst fake news and worst presidential harassment in the history of the United States, we've got phenomenal numbers. No it's true. It's the worst Presidential harassment in history. We had a great event yesterday.
Donald Trump
00:16:10-00:16:31 (21 sec)No Signal (0.045)
A -- an event that was so beautiful. Young African-American leaders. One of the things I asked them, and I've been thinking about this for a long time, and great people, great people, some of them are here tonight. "Do you like the name African-American or black?" And they said black all at the same time.
Donald Trump
00:16:31-00:16:55 (23 sec)Weak (1.312)
No, true. I tell you. Because you say African-American are black and they said almost like immediately black, but we had an incredible group of people. And what happened is NBC was such a lovefest. It was so great, went on for 45 minutes. It was a lovefest. It was incredible. NBC, turned out they are there.
Donald Trump
00:16:55-00:17:30 (35 sec)Weak (1.392)
They are right there. [Audience Boos] They turned down Comcast, which owns NBC. Actually, NBC, I think, which is we call it MSDNC, right. MSDNC. But NBC, I think, is worse than CNN. I actually do. And Comcast, a company that spends millions and millions of dollars on their image. I'll do everything possible to destroy their image because they are terrible.
Donald Trump
00:17:30-00:18:03 (33 sec)Weak (1.077)
They are terrible. They are a terrible group of people and they paid me a fortune for years for The Apprentice, they paid me a fortune. And when I left the show, I was doing great, when I left the show, 14 seasons, think of that, you've got a big movie star. I won't tell you his name, nobody would know. Actually, nobody will know his name because he was on for such a short period of time, but the show went down the tubes very quickly after they had Trump.
Donald Trump
00:18:03-00:18:57 (54 sec)No StressLens
But the country, in five years from now, of course, you want to upset him five years or nine years or 13 years or 18 years. [Audience chants "More more years"] And more years. Now -- now they go crazy when you say it. When you say -- when you say to them five more years, so it's fine, but you then say maybe nine, maybe 13, maybe 17, maybe 21, who knows.
Donald Trump
00:18:57-00:19:29 (32 sec)Medium (1.535)
Maybe 20. Let's do this. Let's term limit ourselves at 25 years, no more than 25. No more, OK. They'll pass something in the Senate. Tim pass it in the Senate with Lindsey a 25-year term limit, please. Now we're looking to do a great job. We need that extra five to get everything solidified. You know it's like you take a tree and you plant it. It needs some time to grab on, right.
Donald Trump
00:19:29-00:20:02 (34 sec)No Signal (0.857)
And that's what we need. We've got incredible things that we've done. We have things we still can do, but we have done actually much, much more than we even promised we'd do. If you think all the -- While extreme-left has been wasting America's time with these vile hoaxes, we've been killing terrorists, creating jobs, raising wages, enacting fair trade deals, fair trade deals, securing our border, and lifting up citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed.
Donald Trump
00:20:02-00:20:38 (36 sec)Medium (1.503)
We added another 225,000 jobs last month alone, and that makes 7 million jobs since our election, 7 million, The unemployment rate in the great state of South Carolina. You ever hear that place? Now, Sleepy Joe would say, "The unemployment rate in the great state of Ohio." "No, no, you're in South Carolina." Joe, Joe you're in South -- They'd come up and you ever see the guy.
Donald Trump
00:20:38-00:21:00 (22 sec)Weak (1.427)
No, no, no. It's South Carolina, it's not Ohio. OK. And he goes, "All right. Iowa. Did you say Iowa?" No, no. They did that like seven times. If I did that once it would be the end of the road, right. It'd be the end. They'd say Trump has lost it. They like to say that anyway, I guess so. These people are bad people.
Donald Trump
00:21:00-00:21:24 (25 sec)Weak (1.398)
Now, Sleepy Joe, well he's running tomorrow. Now, but could you imagine if I said just a small fraction of the mistakes he makes, which are unbelievable. Every speech. I actually said the other night, I was watching him when he said about half the population wiped out with guns. I said -- I said, that's a horrible thing, that's the end of his evil, that's the end of his political career.
Donald Trump
00:21:24-00:22:03 (39 sec)Medium (1.625)
And then, after the debate, they're revealing him, they said, "Joe Biden had a great night last night." I don't get it, Tim. The unemployment rate here in South Carolina has fallen to 2.3%, the lowest rate in your state's, the lowest rate in all of America. So it's the lowest rate in all of America. I said to a friend of mine, a Democrat, "How's the race going tomorrow, who's going to win?" And he says, "Mr. President --" No, it's very interesting.
Donald Trump
00:22:03-00:22:37 (33 sec)No StressLens
You know he said something. This guy's a real political pro too, in all fairness, even though he's a Democrat. But I said, "Who's going to win?", he said, "Honestly, sir, it doesn't matter. You are so far ahead in South Carolina that it's meaningless." Meaningless. And in North Carolina too. In North Carolina.
Donald Trump
00:22:37-00:23:20 (44 sec)No StressLens
We've destroyed the ISIS territorial caliphate. We killed the founder and leader of ISIS. Al-Baghdadi is dead, he's dead, he's dead. And we recently took out the world's top terrorist Qasem Soleimani, ending his evil reign of terror forever. [Audience chants "USA"] But as we keep on winning, Washington Democrats keep on losing their minds.
Donald Trump
00:23:20-00:23:55 (34 sec)Weak (1.432)
They've gone crazy. I mean, Nervous Nancy, Crying Chuck Schumer, Crying Chuck, bunch of losers. The good citizens of South Carolina have had a front-row seat to the extremism of the Democrat candidates, whether it's this character that nobody ever heard of him. I never heard it. I thought I knew all the wealthy people, this guy Tom Steyer, Mr. impeachment, How did that workout, Tom?
Donald Trump
00:23:55-00:24:26 (32 sec)Medium (1.686)
Hey, spent millions and millions of dollars in Iowa, right, millions. He got less than 1%. He got like one-third of 1%. I wrote a little note, did you see it? It said, "Tom, It's not so easy doing what I did, is it?" Not so easy, not so easy. All you have to do is ask Mini Mike, he's in there for a fortune ay yay, wished he never started.
Donald Trump
00:24:26-00:24:52 (26 sec)Weak (1.373)
He wished he never -- Mini Mike. He wish he never started. He said, "Well, Trump can do it, I'm going to do it too." Unfortunately, it's not working out too well. Was that the worst debate performance in history? I turned down because you know they had a big audience. Everybody wanted to see whether or not he was good or what he was supposed to be doing up here.
Donald Trump
00:24:52-00:25:20 (28 sec)Medium (1.585)
He turned out to be a total catastrophe. That 35 million people, can you believe? That's a big audience, very big and what a killer. But this guy, Steyer, he spends all this money, he's not that wealthy. He spends all of his money and you shouldn't waste your vote on him it tomorrow. I have to be honest, the people, by the way, the Republicans allowed to vote anyway even though -- Are you ready?
Donald Trump
00:25:20-00:25:55 (35 sec)Weak (1.392)
OK, you're ready? let's do it together. I assume this is OK from a campaign-finance standpoint. I assume. Lindsey, Tim, our great Congressman, are we allowed to do so? Am I allowed to request? First, we have to figure out who would be the weakest candidate against President Trump. And then, if it's legal, I always say, if it's permissible by law, because they have so many little booby traps, but they only like getting the Republicans, Democrats skirt, right.
Donald Trump
00:25:55-00:26:21 (26 sec)Strong (2.233)
8 of 129 paragraphs scored.But we'll see what happens about that. The Democrats. But let me ask you this Lindsey, Tim, you're pros. These are two of the greatest guys I know. So let me ask you this -- So I don't know what the record attendance is in this arena, but I was told that we broke it by a lot and you get the people outside.
Donald Trump
00:26:21-00:26:55 (34 sec)Medium (1.619)
Are we allowed to tell them who we would like them to vote for? Because you're allowed to skip. Right, so wait a minute, let's do a poll. We do this for the fake news back there. Ready? Who would be the best candidate for us, not for them? You're ready? Ready? So, let's go through them just quickly. We won't include Steyer because he's a loser, he's out, OK. Who would be the best?
Donald Trump
00:26:55-00:27:14 (19 sec)Medium (1.632)
This is a real poll. This isn't one of those fake polls taken by -- In all fairness, I love you Fox, taken by Fox, the worst pollster. This guy, this pollster hates Trump's guts. I was losing the last election by a fortune. They said he did great with women, what -- Everything was wrong and they never replace this guy.
Donald Trump
00:27:14-00:27:36 (22 sec)Weak (1.051)
But -- but watch this, You're ready? So first, we'll go, let's say, Sleepy Joe, right. So right. Then we'll go Crazy Bernie, then we'll go Mini Mike. I don't think Mini Mike. I think he's out of it. Shall we include Mini Mike or not? Mini Mike is gone. Mini Mike has gone, I think he's gone. He doesn't have a chance.
Donald Trump
00:27:36-00:28:02 (26 sec)No Signal (0.871)
So let's not talk and he's not in your election anyway, so let's forget it. So Mini Mike, I hear Mini Mike, by the way, has left. He's basically given up, that's what I hear. He gave up. He gave up. Now, I hope what I just said keeps him in. You know, he's a kind of a guy, he'll stay in because, "I don't want to be wrong." Mike it's time to go home.
Donald Trump
00:28:02-00:28:27 (26 sec)Weak (1.433)
Go home, Mike and enjoy your life. Go home and spend some money on something. So let's just go -- We'll go -- Ok. Do you agree we'll go for that too? Look, Pocahontas, we can forget about her, right? Pocahontas, I came out with that name far too early because there's Bernie Sanders, they got. You know little lands.
Donald Trump
00:28:27-00:28:54 (26 sec)Weak (1.445)
You got so horrible to people and they said you know she's, not dumb, but she's just so damn mean, we can't vote for her. She's a mean one. She is mean. So Pocahontas, do we leave her in or out? [Audience shouts "Out"] How about Klobuchar? Klobuchar. Not going to happen. So really, we're down to two candidates, right.
Donald Trump
00:28:54-00:29:22 (28 sec)No StressLens
Sleepy Joe Biden and Crazy Bernie. So this is a poll. I guarantee you this, as much as they hate me, they hate me, they're going to put this all over the place. We have a poll of like 30,000 people inside and out. They're doing it outside too. We have a poll. Are you ready? Who do I -- so in other words, who is the weaker of the two, I'm not interested who does better.
Donald Trump
00:29:22-00:29:57 (35 sec)Medium (1.924)
No, I'm not interested. Wait. So ready? In other words, who do I want to run against? Meaning, meaning, very simple, we put it into nice, simple language who the hell is easier to beat, right? So who is easier for us, not me, for us to beat? Ready? Crazy Bernie or Sleepy Joe. I don't know, I think, maybe a crazy Bernie has it a little bit.
Donald Trump
00:29:57-00:30:42 (45 sec)No StressLens
Now once more, just quick, ready? Cra -- He said, "It doesn't matter. You'll beat them all." I hope so. I hope so. So who is easier to beat, Crazy Bernie or Sleepy Joe? They think Bernie is easier to beat. They think Bernie is easier to beat. So whether it's Bernie Sanders' plan to eliminate private health care, Elizabeth Warren's plan, I told you that I had more Indian blood in me than her even though I have none, I have none.
Donald Trump
00:30:42-00:31:11 (29 sec)Medium (1.609)
Zero, I have none. I have none. I said I have more Indian blood in me than she has and she choked she said, "I'm gonna show oh, I'm gonna show." She hired this company and they went out and did a blood test, 1,024, correct? So that means I probably won somewhere down the line a million years ago. I'm telling you that was horrible.
Donald Trump
00:31:11-00:31:40 (30 sec)Medium (1.621)
She choked we don't want a person to win the chokes. We don't want to choke artists, right. One thing you will say about me, I'm not a choker. With all these people for years, they're after me for years. You can't have chokers. We can't have chokers as your president.

You know, they came to me, a group of people and they wanted criminal justice reform and I wasn't sure about the issue. But we had a lot of great Republicans very much in favor of it, including people that happened to be right here today and they were very much -- And I started studying the issue worked hard on the issue and criminal justice reform, you saw Alice Johnson come out of prison 22 years.

She had another 20 years left, think of it, for a phone call, for a phone call, a great woman. But we have many people coming out that shouldn't be there for anywhere near those terms. Not for those term, but they came to see me, a group. A group of people came. Van Jones, he came up, "Oh thank you, sir." They needed four Senators.
Donald Trump

They needed help. I called Lindsey. I called everybody. I called Tim, who's so great on everything. I called everybody. They needed four Senators and maybe five, and they needed help with some of the ones that weren't moving in the right direction. And I gave it to him and I got it and it was not easy and we got criminal justice reform, and then I signed it. And then this Van Jones has a program that gets no ratings, absolutely, at all.
Donald Trump

And they say Van Jones wants to thank everybody for criminal justice reform. So I called our great First Lady over, I said, "Darling, please take a look. It's gonna be so nice." Because, honestly, look they couldn't have done even close without me. I got all these people together. Got them done got -- It was impossible.

Previous Presidents couldn't even think about it. They couldn't even think about doing it and they tried -- Although I don't think they tried too hard. They could have never done it.

Donald Trump

It's true. He's one of the few people. He really looked better when he was heavy. He looked much better when he was heavy, I got to tell him. I have to explain because I know him very well. He would admit that he has a lot of respect for your President, but he can't admit it on television, but he called, and he said, "I want to thank the Reverend Al Sharpton." and then, name after name after name of people that I never heard of. My wife said, "Are they gonna think about you?" Right.
Donald Trump

Are they going to think about you? I said, Darling of course." I said, "He's saving me till the end because I was by far." It's true. This is true, Tim. Lindsey , this is true. I said he's saving me till the end. It's going to be such an honor to be recognized because I don't get enough publicity. I need a little bit more.
Donald Trump

He got to the end and he didn't say it and she looked at me she sort of smiled. I think she loved it in a certain way. You know, but she sort of smiled. She said It's too bad, I said yeah, then he said I have one more thing to say, "We must get out this year and fight and vote against this President of the United States." Can you believe it? True.
Donald Trump
01:09:32-01:10:08 (35 sec)Medium (1.723)
It's true. It's a true story. Van Jones, I mean, these are just terrible that they could -- So I was a little embarrassed in front of our great first lady, but I'll -- I'll lived through it somehow. I recognized Israel's true capital and opened the American embassy in Jerusalem. We recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, 52 years.
Donald Trump

Fifty-two years the Golan Heights had been fighting and fighting for it. I did it and I did the true capital, Jerusalem. Right. How many Presidents promised that every President for many, many decades promised we're going to do that? They never did it. I did it. We did a lot. We've invested more than $2 trillion in the United States military, including more than $150 million.

This year in Joint Base Charleston, Fort Jackson and Parris Island. And we created the sixth branch of the American Armed Forces, the Space Force. We have another brand 72 years, not for 72 years, the Air Force have they done a new branch. We did the Space Force. You know when I first said it, they thought -- everybody thought I was joking.

I said I'm not joking. They thought it was like from the comic strips or the future movies. I said no, it's all about space. In a number of years, people just say, "I can't believe we didn't do this sooner." You know, we need a little vision. We need a little foresight. And you know when I mentioned Space Force, at arenas like this it gets one of the biggest hands because that's where it's at, that's where it's going, unfortunately or fortunately.

We need it for defense. We did it for offense. [Inaudible] Seventy-two years, for years we watched as your politicians apologize for America. Now you have a President who is standing up for America and we are standing up for the people of South Carolina. At stake in our present battle is the actual survival of our nation.

I really believe that. It's a survival. You see these maniacs that we're dealing with. They want to give away everything. We will end up being Venezuela, large-scale version. If you want your children to inherit the blessings that generations of Americans have fought and died for to secure, then we must devote everything we have towards victory in November of 2020, November 3rd to be exact.

Only this way can we save the America we love and drain the swamp I never thought it was this deep. Man, I talked about a swamp, you never told me it was this bad, fellas. That swamp is bad.
