In many ways, 2020 has been a difficult year. This weekend we saw again how difficult the job of Law Enforcement can be. Today, you need to keep two sheriffs deputies in Los Angeles County in your thoughts as they onover from a difficult act Law Enforcement in los angeles. The men and women of Law Enforcement wake up everyday not what it will bring, but they know they will answer it.

I asked the president when i talk to him on the phone to come to kenosha and personally thank the men and women of Law Enforcement firsthand. As i stood next to the president and kenosha, the look in their eyes as the president said thank you was a sight to see. President trump, Vice President pence, and i oppose Defunding Police and back the badge.

A choice that will take our country down one of two paths. A choice as to who is best to rebuild United States economy. A choice as to who will keep our communities safe. To me, the choice is clear. President trump and Vice President pence are fighting for wisconsin families and workers. [applause] we are fighting to get workers back to work, fighting to protect our health, fighting to keep america safe. Fighting because we know this is a country worth fighting for because our better days are ahead. [applause] Vice President mike pence may be frequent, but his visits to wisconsin have got me thinking he has some better pride. Pride. Er [applause] not only does he visit wisconsin, he listens to us. He understands the importance of ensuring that every wisconsin worker who wants a job can find a job.

Wisconsin,s, here in you believe we could be strong again. You believe we could be prosperous again. You believe america could be respected again. You said yes to President Donald Trump in 2016 and i know in 50 days from today, wisconsin is going to say yes to four more years of President Donald Trump in 20. [applause] [chanting] four more years vice pres. Pence and the road to victory runs right through wisconsin. [applause] look how far weve come because of the confidence youve placed in this president and our team. Four years ago we inherited a military hollowed out by devastating budget cuts, and economy struggling to break out of the slowest recovery since the great depression. Terrorism was on the rise around the world and we witnessed a steady assault on our most cherished values and liberties. In three short years, we rebuilt our military. [applause] we revived our economy, cut taxes, rollback redtape, unleashed American Energy, fought for free and fair trade and the American Economy came roaring back in those first three years. Wow. And this president kept his promise. We have appointed more than 200 judges to our federal courts at every level and i am here to tell you, they are all principled conservatives who will support the godgiven liberties enshrined in our constitution. Like the freedom of religion, the freedom of speech and the Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. [applause] beyond all of those high ideals, i cannot be more proud to serve as Vice President to a president who have stood without apology for the sanctity of human life. [applause] under President Trumps leadership, we have stood for security, stood for our liberties, stood for prosperity, and our highest values. President donald trump has stood every day with the men and women who serve in Law Enforcement and we will stand with them for four more years. [applause] you know, the president and i know that the men and women who serve in Law Enforcement are some of the best people in this country. They literally put their lives on the line every day. They count our lives more important than their own. Lawe who serve in enforcement deserve the respect of every american every day. [applause] tragically this weekend, we all witnessed another round of attacks on those who wear the uniform. Sheriffs deputies in los angeles were literally shot in cold load while cold blood while some stood on the Street Corner and left. Laughed. Gatheredld protesters outside the hospital and chanted we hope they die. One of the sheriffs deputies is the mother of a sixyearold. The other is just 24 years old. They were both on the job for less than a year. I want to tell them and their families and all those who love and cherish Law Enforcement that we are so glad to hear they are on the road to recovery. They will remain in our hearts and our prayers. [applause] you, the tell president and i will also support the right of americans to peaceful protest, rioting and looting is not peaceful protest, burning businesses is not free speech, bringing violence against innocent surveillance and civilians or Law Enforcement must stop and it must stop now. [applause] those who do such things will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. [applause] youve seen this president leadership up close not far from here. Brokeioting and looting out in kenosha, wisconsin, President Trump sent into hundred federal Law Enforcement officers, worked with your state and local Law Enforcement and ended the violence. , over the last month, we launch what is called operation legend. Literally we have deployed over 1000 federal enforcement that have been seeing violent protests, and as we stand here today, working with state and local Law Enforcement officials, i am proud to report, they have made over 2000 arrests of violent protesters all across the country. We are going to have law order in every city, in every state of this country, for every american of every race and creed and color, so help us, god. [usa usa ] months, all joe biden ever talked about was peaceful protest. Businesses inatch our cities burn. Two weeks ago, he did condemn violence in every form it takes, but right after that, he criticized Law Enforcement. And joe biden has never called out his Campaign Staff or running mate for raising bail for violent criminals, and he still has not called for mayors to get their cities under control. The fact is, joe biden will double down on all of the policies that have led to violence in our cities. A lack when you signal of support or waning support for Law Enforcement, it in bold and those. It emboldens those who threaten our families and our cities, so let me be clear. We are going to stand with the men and women who serve on the thin blue line of Law Enforcement, whether it is los angeles or kenosha or rochester. We are going to back the blue. Joe biden says that america is systemically racist. And that Law Enforcement in his words, as i quote, has implicit bias against minorities. When asked whether he would support cutting funding to Law Enforcement, joe biden actually , butd, yes, absolutely under this president and this Vice President and this administration, i will make you a promise. We are not going to defund the police, not now, not ever. President trump and i know what the people of wisconsin know. We do not need to choose between supporting Law Enforcement and standing with our africanamerican neighbors or any of the minorities that live in our cities. To improve the quality of their lives, their education, their jobs, and their security, from the first day of this administration, we have stood with Law Enforcement. We have expanded opportunities for africanamericans. We have done both for 3. 5 years, and we will do them both for four more years in the white house. [applause] years, wee short rebuild our military. We revived our economy. We stood for law and order. Youthe results, i can tell having traveled to 30 countries around the world, america is standing tall again. We have a president who embraces his role as leader of the free world. We have a president who does not apologize for america. He stands for america. And america is respected again. Our liberties are more secure, and in those first three years, it has also been about jobs, jobs, jobs. It is amazing to think after we cut taxes, rolled back regulation, unleashed American Energy, and negotiated better trade deals, businesses large and small created more than 7 million good paying jobs all across the country, and wages rose at their fastest pace in more than 10 years, and what meant the most to the president and me was wages rose the most dramatically for hardworking, bluecollar americans, the forgotten men and women of america. They were forgotten new more. And we created the greatest economy in the world. At the end of those first three years, there were more americans working than ever before. In three short years, we made America Great again. We did. [applause] coronavirus struck from china. And the people of wisconsin deserve to know that before the very first documented case of Community Transmission within our country, President Trump did what no other american president had ever done. All travel from china. He put the health of America First. Biden called that xenophobic. Tell youruth is, i can firsthand, having led the White House Coronavirus task force, that action alone saved untold american lives, and it bought us in valuable time to stand up the greatest National Mobilization since world war ii. At the president s direction, we marshaled not only the full resources of the federal government but the full potential of the American Economy. We reinvented testing. We literally have done more testing than any nation in the world by a factor of five. We are doing 800,000 tests a day. We saw the delivery and manufacture of billions of medical supplies to our doctors and nurses and hospitals, and no american who required a ventilator was ever denied a ventilator in the United States of america. Now, our hearts go out to all of the families that have lost loved ones in the course of this pandemic, and there is not a day on by that those families have not been in our thoughts and prayers, including the more than 1000 families here in the state of wisconsin. And i am proud to report to you that every single day, we are developing new medicines that are saving lives across the country. Remdesivir, plasma, the development of therapeutics, and even though joe biden said, and i quote, no miracle is coming, we are on track to have the first Coronavirus Vaccine before the end of this year. America is in the miracle business. , because of what we have all done together as a nation because of this president s president s this leadership, we are slowing the spread, protecting lives, and developing lifesaving medicines. In the midst of this pandemic, the president has heard from leaders in congress, and we secured more than 4 trillion in support, direct aid, to American Families and a Paycheck Protection Program that saved 50 million american jobs. To, we are going to continue put the health of America First because of the Strong Foundation that we poured in those first three years, and with the unprecedented aid that we were able to provide to families and businesses large and small, after losing 22 million jobs at the height of this pandemic, we have seen 10. 6 million americans already go back to work, including 200 thousand people right here in wisconsin. [applause] we are opening up america again. Are opening up americas schools. We are going to get there, wisconsin. We are going to get there together, and i want to commend each and every one of you for the role that you play in these challenging times. We have gone through a time of testing, but as i like to say, we are soon coming to a time of choosing. 50 days from today, the American People have a choice to make. As President Trump said in michigan a few days ago, and i quote, never before has there two a clearer division, philosophies, two agendas for the parties. Joe biden has put forward the most extreme platform in history. In the middle of a pandemic, joe biden would like to raise taxes by 4 billion. Taxesresident, we cut across the board for working families, and we are going to keep cutting taxes for four more years. Joe biden once to bury our economy under an avalanche of redtape, like his own version of the Green New Deal
