00:00We are people as diverse as humanity itself, but out of many, we are one.
00:08Because as the life story of our next Vice President, J.D. Vance, reminds us, we are
00:13all descendants of ordinary people who achieved extraordinary things.
00:27Who do we come from?
00:30We come from pioneers who ventured west to chase their dreams, and slaves who overcame
00:36bondage to claim their right to the promise of America.
00:40We come from exiles who fled tyranny in search of freedom, and of immigrants who left behind
00:47all they had and knew, because they could not be or achieve God's purpose for their
00:52life and the nation of their birth.
00:56That is an American.
01:05And putting Americans first must be what this election is about.
01:13When President Trump was in the White House, Americans had more money and lower prices.
01:20Our borders were secure and our laws were enforced.
01:24When Iran was broke, the Taliban stopped killing Americans, and Putin didn't invade anyone.
01:41Now under Biden, high prices devour paychecks, criminals and drugs are allowed to flood into
01:49our country and terrorize our people.
01:53When Iran has money to support terrorists, the Taliban humiliated us in Afghanistan,
01:59and not one, but two major wars have broken out.
02:03My fellow Americans, the only way to make America wealthy and safe and strong again
02:11is to make Donald J. Trump our president again.
02:30Our country has been injured, injured by the bad decisions of weak leaders.
02:37But now, though bloodied by our wounds, we must stand up and we must fight.
02:45Fight not with violence or destruction, but with our voices and our votes.
02:52Fight not against each other, but for the hopes and dreams we share in common and make
02:57us one.
02:59And fight for an America where we are safe from those who seek to harm us on our streets
03:06and from abroad.
03:08And we will not be alone in this fight.
03:11For leading us in this fight will be a man who, although wounded and facing danger, he
03:16stood up and raised his fist and reminded us that our people and our country are always
03:22worth fighting for.
03:48It is time, it is time to put our country and our people first again.
03:56And if we do, together we will make our people wealthy again.
04:05If we do, together we will make our country safe again.
04:12Together we will make Donald Trump our president again.
04:25And together we will not just make America great again.
04:32We will make America greater than it has ever been.
