At a campaign rally in Wildwood, New Jersey last weekend, former President Trump spoke about the war between Ukraine and Russia.

NewsTranscript
00:00 Before I even arrive at the Oval Office, shortly after we win the presidency, I will have the
00:06 horrible war between Russia and Ukraine settled.
00:10 I know them both very well.
00:13 We will build a great iron dome over our country, a dome like nobody has ever seen before, better
00:19 than the one in Israel, which works pretty well, thanks to us also.
00:23 A state-of-the-art missile defense shield that will entirely be built in America and
00:30 create jobs, jobs, jobs.
00:31 Much of it's going to actually be built in New Jersey.
00:34 We will rescue our health care system from Joe Biden's migrant invasion.
00:39 It was recently announced that Crooked Joe is now giving Obamacare and all free government
00:45 health care to illegal aliens.
00:46 You know what?
00:47 They get treated better than our military.
00:50 They get treated better than our own citizens.
00:53 Every penny of Biden's plan will be funded by American citizens taken out of your pockets,
00:59 your paychecks, your wallets.
01:00 It's taken.
01:01 What they're doing is crazy.
01:03 This country cannot afford this.
01:04 We can't afford it.
01:05 We all have a big heart.
01:06 We want to take care of people, but it's not sustainable.
01:09 We won't have a country any longer.
01:11 I will mean, and it will be, the highest taxes we've ever had to pay, the highest premiums
01:18 we've ever had to pay, and much longer waits to see your doctors.
01:22 That's what's happening.
01:23 It's happening with your schools.
01:25 Kids are occupying your schools.
01:27 They're taking the chairs of your own students and your own family members, your children,
01:33 and they're just not giving them back.
01:35 And they don't speak English.
01:36 They're sitting in chairs listening to a teacher talking English, and they don't speak English.
01:42 And it will mean Biden's border invasion will become even larger as the world floods over
01:49 in search of all of these government benefits that we're giving people that come in illegally.
01:54 And they're coming in illegally because of the benefits in addition to other reasons.
01:58 According to a new study, illegal immigration is already costing New Jersey residents $7.3
02:04 billion every single year.
02:07 That's $2,100 per household, more than any state anywhere in the country.
02:13 And it comes and it stops the spending on bridges, roads, New Jersey transit, and all
02:19 of those other things that we need.
02:22 Day one of the Trump administration, we will cut off all of Biden's taxpayer giveaways
02:27 to illegal aliens.
02:28 If the Biden invasion is not stopped, it will also demolish Medicare and Social Security.
02:36 It cannot survive by -- it cannot survive 20 million people coming into the country.
02:42 We will take care of Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security.
02:47 We will take care of everything.
02:49 We have more liquid gold under our feet than any country in the world.
02:53 We've got so much money.
02:55 We're going to take care of it.
02:56 We don't have to destroy our Social Security and other programs.
03:01 We've also gotten abortion out of the federal government and back to the states, the way
03:07 everybody and all legal scholars always said it should be.
03:12 I think it's very important because it's a very dividing issue, and it's an issue that
03:16 we've worked very hard on, I have, and some states will like it one way and another way.
03:22 But everybody has always wanted it for 52 years brought back into the states.
03:28 And that's what's happened.
03:29 It's now up to the will of the people in each state.
03:33 Some states will be more conservative and others will be more liberal, but the people
03:37 will now decide.
03:39 That's the way that everybody has always wanted to be.
03:42 Every legal scholar, some will be conservative, some will be more liberal, some will have
03:50 more weeks than others or many more weeks.
03:52 Others won't have the same number, but the people will be deciding.
03:57 We took it out of the federal government.
04:00 Every legal scholar, every Democrat, for the most part at the time, for years they've been
04:06 trying to do it.
04:07 But if the radical Democrat extremists get their way, they will have a federal law on
04:12 abortion in the eighth and ninth month and even executing the baby after birth.
04:18 It's okay.
04:20 They want to execute the baby.
04:22 They have laws.
04:23 You look at the governor, the former governor of Virginia, execute the baby after birth.
04:30 We will decide, you remember.
04:32 But you can't do that in the eighth month and the ninth month.
04:35 They are the radical ones.
04:36 Every voter has got to go with his heart and do what's right.
04:41 But you also remember you have elections.
04:43 You have to get elected.
04:45 So I want to just thank the six Supreme Court justices, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, John
04:52 Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, and Amy Coney Barrett, for the wisdom and the
04:59 courage they showed on this long-term, very contentious issue.
05:05 Bringing it back to the states puts the question where it belongs with a vote of the people.
05:10 And over time, it will work out, and it already is working out, and the country is starting
05:16 to come together on this unbelievably contentious issue.
05:21 So in addition, we're going to do a lot of other things, but that's something we had
05:27 to do.
05:28 We had to do it.
05:29 And again, for 52 years, they wanted to bring that issue back to the states.
05:35 It never belonged in the hands of the federal government.
05:38 And if you take a look at Ohio, they just voted a different vote than people thought
05:43 – much more liberal, you would say, much more, as they would say, progressive.
05:48 I use the word "liberal."
05:49 Kansas, the same thing.
05:51 But that's the way it is, and it's something that we should cherish.
05:56 We were able to do something that nobody was able to do, and it's all starting to come
06:01 together – the issue of abortion.
06:03 In addition, we're going to give back – our police, we're going to give them back the
06:08 protection and the respect that they need.
06:12 We're going to give them immunity so they don't get sued and lose their families,
06:18 lose their homes, lose their pensions.
06:21 And we will stand up to radical Marxist DAs like Soros-funded DA in Philadelphia, Larry
06:27 Krasner, who has set loose thousands of dangerous criminals onto the streets that go around
06:34 killing people.
06:35 I will also stop Joe Biden's sinister plan to abolish the suburbs.
06:40 He's trying to abolish the suburbs in your state, and we're not going to let him do
06:45 it.
06:46 Crooked Joe is trying to obliterate single-family zoning in New Jersey and every other state,
06:50 and force you to pay for the construction of ultra-dense housing projects in beautiful
06:55 residential neighborhoods where your house is.
06:58 He will destroy your property value.
07:00 He will destroy your wealth.
07:02 He will let it happen.
07:04 He wants it to happen.
07:05 He's already getting ready to sign legislation to let that happen.
07:09 We're not going to let him destroy New Jersey and Pennsylvania and all of these other places
07:14 that people are very happy and they've worked hard to live there.
07:18 And we will end it on day one.
07:20 We're going to rebuild our cities into beacons of hope, safety, and beauty better than they
07:25 have ever been before.
07:27 We will take over the horrible-run capital of our nation, Washington, D.C., and clean
07:32 it up, renovate it, rebuild our capital city so that it no longer is a nightmare of murder
07:39 and crime.
07:40 People are being murdered there on a weekly basis.
07:43 But rather, it will become the most beautiful capital anywhere in the world.
07:47 We're going to fix it, renovate it, and make it free of crime.
07:51 On day one, I will sign a new executive order to cut federal funding for any school pushing
07:56 critical race theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or
08:03 political content onto the lives of our children.
08:06 I will not give one penny to any school that has a vaccine mandate or a mask mandate.
08:15 And I will keep men out of women's sports.
08:27 How would you like to be a woman in a women's team and have to play something against LT?
08:33 This is not going to work out well.
08:36 I will fully uphold the Second Amendment.
08:38 We will protect innocent life, and we will restore free speech.
08:43 And I will secure our elections.
08:46 We have to secure our elections.
08:48 Our goal will be one day voting with paper ballots, proof of citizenship, and voter ID.
08:54 Very simple, that we have honest elections.
08:58 But until then, Republicans must win.
09:00 We have to win this election coming up.
09:03 We want a landslide.
09:04 And frankly, there's an expression I've been using.
09:07 You've got to make it too big to rig.
09:09 If we win by enough, it doesn't matter.
09:12 They can't do it.
09:13 So if you want to save America, register, get an absentee or mail-in ballot, vote early,
09:19 or vote on Election Day.
09:21 It doesn't matter.
09:22 But whatever you do, you must get out and vote.
09:24 This year, election season begins on September 16th and goes all the way to November 5th.
09:31 So it's not like just November 5th.
09:33 It goes to November 5th.
09:35 This is going to be the most important election in the history of our country.
09:40 We will protect your ballot, but you must do your part.
09:44 You must get your ballot in.
09:45 We have to win.
09:47 And if you can, donate to cancel out the money.
09:50 You have to.
09:51 Look, if you can't, donate.
09:54 Don't donate.
09:55 You've got to take care of yourselves.
09:56 But if you can, do whatever you can for the Republican Party.
10:00 Because what they do is they raise so much money through different groups that are not
10:05 groups that are on our side.
10:07 So in conclusion, together we're taking on some of the most menacing forces and vicious
10:13 opponents of our - that our people have ever seen.
10:16 We've never seen - we've never seen anything like what's happening in our great country.
10:21 And I really have to say, in our once great country - because right now, our country is
10:25 not a great country.
10:26 It's a country that's in trouble, big trouble.
10:29 But no matter how hateful and corrupt the communists and criminals we're fighting against
10:33 may be, you must never forget this nation does not belong to this.
10:39 This nation doesn't belong to them.
10:41 This nation belongs to - you know who?
10:43 You.
10:44 It belongs to you.
10:46 This is your home.
10:48 This is your heritage.
10:49 And our American liberty is your God-given right.
10:54 From Morristown to Mount Laurel, from Patterson to Pennington, and from Ocean City to Sea
11:01 Isle to right here in Wildwood, New Jersey.
11:06 It's been home to some of the toughest, smartest, and most talented Americans ever to walk the
11:15 face of the earth, right here.
11:18 This is the state that pioneered the boardwalk, the diner, the motion picture, and gave the
11:24 world American legends like Thomas Edison, Buzz Aldrin, Frank Sinatra, and so many more.
11:31 New Jersey is where General George Washington led the Army to victory at Trenton and Princeton.
11:39 And this is where generations of New Jersey patriots helped build this country into the
11:43 single greatest nation in the history of the world.
11:47 But now we are a nation in decline.
11:51 We are a failing nation.
11:53 We are a nation that has lost its confidence, it's lost its willpower, and it's lost
11:59 its strength.
12:01 We are a nation that has quite simply lost its way.
12:06 But we are not going to allow this horror to continue.
12:10 Less than four years ago, we were a great nation, and we will soon be a great nation
12:16 again.
12:17 (Applause.)
12:24 It was hardworking patriots like you who built this country, and it's hardworking
12:29 patriots like you who are going to save our country.
12:32 You're going to save our country.
12:34 We're going to save it during this election period, during this election that goes for
12:39 so long.
12:41 Days used to be one day, now they go for 60 days, 61 days.
12:46 Bad things happen.
12:47 We're going to save our country.
12:49 We will fight for America like no one has ever fought before.
12:54 2024 is our final battle.
12:57 With you at my side, we will demolish the deep state.
13:00 We will expel the warmongers from our government.
13:04 We will drive out the globalists.
13:06 We will cast out the communists, Marxists, and fascists.
13:10 We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country, and we will rout the
13:14 fake news media.
13:16 We will drain the swamp.
13:18 And we will liberate our country from these tyrants and villains.
13:22 Once and for all, we are going to liberate our country.
13:25 We're going to take back our country.
13:27 Like those patriots before us, we will not bend, we will not break, we will not yield,
13:33 we will never give in, we will never give up, and we will never, ever, ever back down.
13:39 With your support, we will go on to victory the likes of which no one has ever seen before,
13:46 and we will evict crooked Joe Biden, the worst president in the history of our country, from
13:56 the White House.
13:59 We're going to evict this man, the worst president by far.
14:03 Jimmy Connors is a good -- Jimmy -- Jimmy Connors is a good -- these are all so happy.
14:09 Jimmy is a very happy man, both of them, because you know what?
14:13 They want him out.
14:15 Jimmy Carter had a bad reputation.
14:19 Right now, he is considered a totally brilliant president by comparison.
14:26 Right now, he is a totally brilliant president by comparison to Joe Biden.
14:31 Joe Biden is the worst in history.
14:33 We have to get him out.
14:34 We have no -- we will not have a country left if we have to go through years of this, even
14:38 five months left.
14:40 It's too much.
14:41 It's a real possibility that they can't handle it.
14:44 The great silent majority is rising like never before, and under our leadership, the forgotten
14:50 man and woman will be forgotten no longer.
14:54 We are one movement, one people, one family, and one beautiful, glorious nation under God.
15:01 And together, we will make America powerful again.
15:08 We will make America wealthy again.
15:13 We will make America strong again.
15:18 We will make America proud again.
15:22 We will make America safe again.
15:27 And we will make America great again.
15:33 God bless you all.
15:35 Let's win this state.
15:36 We're going to win it.
15:38 Thank you.
15:39 Thank you very much.
15:40 We love you all.
