It will decide wher we rapidly create millions of high paying jobs, or wher we crush our industries and send millions of se jobs overseas, as has foolishly been done for many decades,” he said.

“So tonight, I ask you a very simple question: How can Democrat Party ask to lead our country when it spends so much time tearing down our country?” he asked.
“In left’s backward view, y do t see America as most free, just, and exceptional nation on earth. Instead, y see a wicked nation that must be punished for its sins. Our opponents say that redemption for you can only come from giving power to m. This is a tired anm spoken by every repressive movement throughout history,” he said.
