The speaker expresses strong American patriotism while voicing concerns over the decline of his home state's political and economic influence. He criticizes current Democratic policies, warns against internal threats to the capitalist system, and advocates for a return to values that incentivize hard work and protect national borders and the economy.
Good morning, everybody. I'm on Long Island.
I'm here with my wife, my kids, and my family.
I'm proud of America.
I'm a proud American.
I used to be a state with 45 congressional seats.
We have the state of the world.
America is a world economy.
It's a great social system.
We can all be very proud of that.
As I sat four years ago,
I found zero.
I'm thinking about the attacks on our people,
what terrorism is going to do to us,
to take place,
to frustrate and destroy
the face of our capitalist society,
to take the blame for it,
and not to try to disrupt our law,
improve our peace,
improve our capital.
I thought if I had the time,
I'd try to copy our way of life,
our state of the economy.
As I thought, and I found zero,
I'm not fooling myself.
I thought about my own state,
about what they're trying to destroy,
our own way of life.
We used to have 45 congressional seats.
Now we have 20 seats.
We used to be the financial center of this country,
and now our financial center
is a place like
Texas.
We are losing the battle
in the world against communism.
It is not coming from us.
It's coming from our own country.
This is a life without
common sense,
and the folks in my state have gone off the rails,
and they are now
begging Democrats all
throughout the country right now.
Democrats in America
want to abolish the setbacks
that otherwise rule and obey
in our country that those terrorists
want to dismantle 25 years ago.
We here,
the folks beside me,
are fully committed to ensuring
that America remains the great state
we want it to be, that we promote
hard work, incentivize
hard work, and all our legislation
does just that.
Money, taxes, support, middle class
communities, incentivize,
and promote hard work.
Our friends and others found out
a much different and important view
of our politics and values.
I hope that America in 49 days
will now get the right
voice, support, people, teams, and
republicans who are worried about
what we want to protect our
shores, protect our borders,
and protect our economy.
That's what we're about.
Thank you very much.
