00:00Donald Trump calls America a failing nation.
00:11No, I'm sorry, but think about this.
00:16Think about this.
00:17He publicly says to the whole world, I'm going to say something outrageous, I know more foreign
00:22leaders by their first names and know them well than anybody live, just because I'm so
00:26damn old, but I'm not joking.
00:32Think of the message he sends around the world when he talks about America being a failing
00:37nation.
00:38He says we're losing.
00:40He's the loser.
00:41He's dead wrong.
00:42And we'll keep working to bring hostages home and end the war in Gaza and bring peace and
00:51security to the Middle East.
00:59As you know, I wrote a peace treaty for Gaza.
01:04A few days ago, I put forward a proposal that brought us closer to doing that than we've
01:11done since October 7th.
01:13We're working around the clock, my Secretary of State, to prevent a wider war and reunite
01:19hostages of their families and surge humanitarian health and food assistance into Gaza now.
01:29To end the civilian suffering of the Palestinian people and finally, finally, finally deliver
01:37a ceasefire and end this war.
01:44Please show the major bills we have passed actually delivered more to red states than
01:49blue, because the job of the President is to deliver to all of America.
02:00Because of you, and I'm not exaggerating, because of you, we've had one of the most
02:06extraordinary four years of progress ever.
02:09Period.
02:10When I say we, I mean Kamala and me.
02:18Folks, I've got five months left in my presidency.
02:23I've got a lot to do.
02:26I intend to get it done.
02:29It's been the honor of my lifetime to serve as your President.
02:39I love the job, but I love my country more.
02:43I love my country more.
02:49And all this talk about how I'm angry at all those people who said I should step down,
02:57it's not true.
03:10Selecting Kamala was the very first decision I made before I became, when I became our
03:16nominee.
03:17And it was the best decision I made my whole career.
03:22We've not only gotten to know each other, we've become close friends.
03:32She's tough, she's experienced, and she has enormous integrity, enormous integrity.
03:40Her story represents the best American story.
03:45And like many of our best Presidents, she was also Vice President.
03:49That's a joke.
03:52I've made, I've made a lot of mistakes in my career, but I gave my best to you.
04:07For 50 years, like many of you, I've given my heart and soul to our nation.
04:14And I've been blessed a million times in return for the support of the American people.
04:22I've either been too young to be in the Senate, because I wasn't 30 yet, and too old to stay
04:29as President.
04:30But I hope you know how grateful I am to all of you.
