00:00Hello Milwaukee!
00:07Who's ready to retire Joe Biden and border czar Kamala Harris and send her back to California?
00:17Who's ready for that?
00:21And who's ready to make Donald Trump our 47th president?
00:27Are you ready for that?
00:29And who's ready to make J.D. Vance our new vice president?
00:35And who's ready to send Chuck Schumer packing?
00:41I'm ready. I'm ready.
00:43My name is Dave McCormick and I'm running to be Pennsylvania's next United States senator, the great commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
00:55And I want to first acknowledge what transpired just a few days ago in my home state,
01:02where I witnessed firsthand from a front row seat in Butler, President Trump's remarkable strength and resolve in a terrifying, terrifying and unpredictable moment.
01:17The president rose brilliantly to the challenge.
01:21But what a sad, sad and frightening day for the families of those who were injured or lost and for our great country.
01:29And we all thank God that President Trump is OK.
01:39I'm a seventh generation Pennsylvanian from the great Keystone State, born and raised.
01:44A West Point graduate, a former Army wrestler.
01:49I'm a combat veteran of the 82nd Airborne Division. All right, 82nd.
01:56And I'm a business leader who helped create hundreds of jobs in western Pennsylvania.
02:01But most important, I'm a dad to six daughters and I'm a husband to the love of my life, Dina, wherever she is.
02:10Now, my opponent's name is Bob Casey.
02:16But you probably don't know him because he does nothing.
02:20For 18 years, Bob Casey has been warming a chair and drawing a paycheck.
02:26He is a do nothing, out of touch, liberal career politician.
02:31And when he votes, he votes for Joe Biden's tired old ideas.
02:37Casey's been around so long, so long that the number one song when he was first elected was the Macarena.
02:44Right. Everybody remember the Macarena. But sadly, this is no joke because politics is about choices.
02:53And the policies of Biden and Bob Casey are dangerous for Pennsylvania and America.
02:59They won't keep us safe. Drugs have poured across the Biden-Harris-Casey wide open borders,
03:07killing 100,000 Americans, including 4,000 Pennsylvanians last year alone.
03:15Illegal immigrants have victimized innocent young women who could easily be your daughter or mine.
03:22And time again, Casey has voted for pro-criminal judges who have made our streets across Pennsylvania more dangerous.
03:30Biden and Casey's failed policies have crushed working families with sky high prices for gas and groceries and rent and regulations to kill Pennsylvania natural gas.
03:42Under President Trump, America's future was strong and prosperous.
03:49And our adversaries feared stepping out of line.
03:54My friends, the choice this November is clear. It's a choice between strength and weakness.
04:02A choice between America's greatness or its sad, disgraceful decline.
04:08This is, my friends, the most important election of our lifetimes.
04:14And we deserve a president and a Senate that will go to the mat to fight for America.
04:26A president and a Senate that will unite America.
04:30And in Pennsylvania, that means voting for Trump and McCormick in November.
04:35Thank you all for leading the charge. God bless our United States of America.
