So thank you very much, and thank lee and what lee has done with that song, and its such an honor to have it. I want to just to let you know i returned to butler in the aftermath of Tragedy And Heartache to deliver a simple message to the people of pennsylvania and to the people of america, our movement to make America Great again stands stronger, prouder, more united, more determined, and nearer to victory than ever before. We are going to make America Rate again and win the election. Whether you are republican, democrat, independent, conservative, or liberal, or you have no label whatsoever it makes no difference, our movement, it belongs to you, it belongs to our country. It belongs to our country, and together in just one month we are going to usher in a new Golden Age of american security, prosperity, sovereignty, and freedom for citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed. Exactly 12 weeks ago this evening on this very ground a coldblooded assassin aimed to silence me and to silence the greatest Movement Maga in the history of our country, maga three we love maga. For 16 harrowing seconds during the gunfire time stopped as this vicious monster unleashed. Evil from his snipers perch, not so far away, but by the hand of providence and the grace of god that a villain did not succeed. His goal did not come close. He did not stop our movement. He did not break out our spirit. He did not shake our unyielding results to save america from evils of poverty, hatred, and destruction, yet we are sure this evening in record numbers. This is a big crowd. This is this is a big one. Not only to mark the triumph of american spirit, but and you know that, this is really, truly in the truest Sense Spirit over evil and adversity, but also to pay tribute to some of the best and bravest we have ever known, this field is now a monument to the valor of our first responders to the resilience of our fellow citizens and to the sacrifice of a loving and devoted father a really great man, you know that. Forever afterward [ Crowd Chanting ] corey forever after, all who have visited this hallowed place will remember what happened here, and they will know of the Character And Courage that so many incredible american patriots have showed and now and they know it at a level never be seen before probably i thank the Secret Service who threw their bodies on top of mine. Without even a thought for their own lives they were on top of me so fast. They were on top of me and there was not even a moment of doubt in their minds, you watch those tapes, not even a moment of doubt. I want to thank Secret Service. They are great people. Great people. And in that moment those agents displayed a devotion to duty that cannot be described, and the did it yet again less than three weeks ago when they really did a fantastic job another attempt it was another attempt, we have an evil world. We have a very sick world. My gratitude to them is beyond measure, we also owe a tremendous debt thanks to the Secret Service counters sniper, and a local police sniper, who returned fire within seconds and stopped the shooter quickly and saved many lives. He had a lot of bullets a lot of ammunition up there with him. And its amazing when you think they did it so quickly without the knowledge of what was going on, boom. And had that not happened it would have been a very different story, it would have been intentionally many many people. I also want to express our thanks to the Butler Township Police department. Incredible people. The butler sheriffs deputies, Pennsylvania State police, and all the other lawenforcement heroes as well as Emergency Personnel and doctors, the medical teams at butler memorial hospital, Allegheny General Hospital who rushed me and some of these very badly wounded people, there were wounded a lot of a lot of badly wounded people, in particular two people, two people and i tell you they were very brave, and great people. They were big Trump Fans. And they still are. That means something. That was that was pretty amazing. You know when i got up i asked whether or not anybody was killed. I assumed that there would be a lot, because i heard the bullets over my head. They said probably three. The doctors did such an incredible job. It was one, one great gentleman. The other two have been amazing actually. They have gone through it. They have gone through a lot, and when the crisis struck they didnt really pennsylvania proud. Youve heard that expression, pennsylvania proud. Its a great place. I went to school i went to college in pennsylvania its a great place. The people are incredible. I also and i have to say after returning to the Field Tonight is one of the really Brave Americans who was hit by the Assassins Bullet u. S. Marine veteran david dutch. David a thank you, david. Thank you, david. And, david, we are thrilled to see your recovery is going well. Great doctors appear i have to go tell you. Great doctors up here. I want to think back you very much, david. Great gentleman great, great gentleman. I want to send our love to someone who could not be here, because he has just gone undergone a major surgery related to the shooting, a man who was really badly wounded like david james copenhagen. James was a wonderful man, a big Trump Fan and mr. Copenhaver is in hospital where they did additional work. He wanted to be here so badly, but hes in great shape and we appreciate it, and we are looking to his full and complete recovery. He will have a complete recovery. Thank you. Thank you very much. And of course one more hero who could not make it back here tonight, because he is no longer with us. Right . You know who that is, right . Corey, our beautiful Corey Corey is not with us tonight, and he should be. And we will miss him. He has become somewhat of a folk hero. Who is with us is his beautiful Wife And Daughters, and relatives, sister please where are you . Where are they sitting . There they are. This is a lot of people. Its not easy to find people in this audience. It goes back further than you can see. Thank you very much, thank you very much. Thank you very much. Great family. Great, incredible family. And he loved you a lot. And you know, his wife said something very beautiful. The public a lot of people, all of us, a lot of people have been very generous, and she said i would rather have my husband. Thats a good thing to say. Thats a good thing to say. I would rather have my husband. Corey comperatore was an incredible husband and father, a devout christian, a veteran, and a proud former fire chief, very respected within the town, everybody knew him. Few men volunteered to run into fires, but corey was one of those who did. He ran into fires. This guy would do anything, brave guy, like you. And he was also a protector who put his life on the line for others, and he loved doing it, and when the sound of Gunshots Peers to be air on that July Evening corey limped into the fire One More Time threw himself on top of his Wife And Daughter as he didnt want their murder he threw himself he said he knew what was happening. He didnt want them hurt. And he was hit hard, he was hit hard, and he gave his life to shield their lives every father, husband in america hopes that if the time came we would have what corey did. Tremendous courage and discuss and he wanted to protect his family, and he did protect his family. At this time it is 6 11, 12 weeks to the minute that the shooting began. I would like to ask everyone to join me in a moment of silence. [ Bell Tolling ] [ cheers and applause ] now that is what you call a voice one of the greatest Opera Singers in the world, Christopher Macchio will be singing, i would not leave your seat too quickly, but this is in honor of three great people, in particular, corey, and we appreciate it, but that is a real voice, isnt it . What do you think mr. Future Vice President . Pretty good right . I dont know if you could do that, jd says i dont think Jakey Jd could do that. Corey answered the most selfless love we are joined this evening coreys incredible Widow Helen is here with his two precious daughters, kelly and don, thank you so much. This is an incredible trip. To helen and the entire family i can only begin to imagine the depths of your grief but i want you to know that just like you we will carry his memory and our hearts for as long as you live. Everybody in the Stadium Everybody that was there on that tragic evening we are thinking about corey , we are thinking about him a lot. I know hes smiling down on his beloved Wife And Daughters, his mother and entire family. His entire family. And y. And and he is with you, and hes going to be with us for a long time, because you know some people just dont die in vain, and what hes left behind is incredible, so god bless you, corey, god bless you. You know i just a little story that helen told me on the day that they came to the Rally Corey was really excited, because somebody gave him great seats right up front with the people from North Carolina, the ladies from North Carolina, they this is their 227th rally. I dont know whats going on with them, those Beautiful Ladies but, they always seem to have good seats. But corey had the best seat In The House. And he was telling his Wife And Family on the way over in the car, he said i am telling you, hes going to invite me up on stage, because i do that sometimes, we invite people up on the stage, and she smiled thinking it will never happen, and little did anyone realize that corey would be on the stage three months later in an almost immortal position, and thats where he is today, he is on the stage in i think in that, i think it is a truly immortal position, so, the love that he showed on that day and throughout his life is the love that sustains the entire movement, love that our families have and love of our communities and love of our country. Its a force more powerful than any hatred and malice, because even in the darkest hours it shines forth as a guide, and it guides us like nothing could. Ever guide us. It guides us really like a candle in the night. And so its love like coreys joining us to save our country thats going to heal our country and that is going to reunite our country as One Nation Under God indivisible little with Liberty And Justice for all. For all. What our opponents have never understood is that this movement has never been about me its is been about you, its been about a lot of people millions and millions of people the biggest ever in the history of this country may be anywhere. And every day people who are the Heart And Soul of our country they love our movement, they love our country, and they know they are doing right. Your hopes are my hopes, your dreams are my dreams, and your futures are what i am fighting for every single day. And now i have a great companion in jd vance. How good was he the other night . T . He was great. [ Crowd Chanting ] jd he was great. But, from the very beginning of this journey ive been on a mission to rescue our country from a failed and very corrupt political establishment very corrupt we had to change it. We had to change it. We also need a very free and open press and to give it back to the country you believe in and i believe and its a country we were born in and the country that you deserve you deserve this. An admission i will never quit, i will never bend, i will never break i will never yield not even in the face of death itself [ cheers and applause ] and i believe that every citizen deserves an america with a grand very very grand ambition great opportunities and limitless we just want limitless potential we want an america where you can get ahead and be proud of life and provide for your family in a really decent way where we dont have crime we have a fabulous military to protect us from evil we have to everything has to to be the best we have to have the best schools we have to have strong borders we dont want bad people coming in and hurting us. We dont want to have we dont want to have open borders, do we . You deserve a government that protects and respects its own citizens that defends your sovereignty, your security, and your dignity, and your freedom. You deserve a nation that builds things again makes things better that aims for the stars once more and that once again commands respect, and we want to get respect like we had it four years ago the entire world respected us they respected us. They respected us more than they have ever respected us, and now they laugh at us. We cant have them laugh at us, can we get mark above all you deserve leadership in washington that does not answer to the lobbyists the bureaucrats or to the corrupt special interests but answers only to you, the hardworking citizens of america, which there are a lot of them. We have a lot of them. We have a lot of them read over the past eight years those want to stop us from achieving this future have slandered me in peach to me indicted me tried to throw me off the ballot and who knows maybe even tried to kill me, but ive never stopped fighting for you and i never will. I never will. Never going to stop. [ Crowd Chanting ] fight thank you. Thank you. And in turn you have always stood with me no matter what you saw what was going on you saw the hoaxes and the scams you saw everything that went on we are a team. We are a great team i think. We are probably the best team ever in the history of our country if you think about it. We have fought together. We have endured together. We have pushed onward together, and right here in pennsylvania we have bled together. We bled. Three people that really got hit hard. Two of them made it. Great doctors great doctors. They werent supposed to make it. I wasnt supposed to make it. My great doctor at butler said sir, you are the luckiest man alive. This would be a good time for you to go out and buy a lottery ticket. Ive never seen anything like it. I almost went out and bought a lottery ticket. Ill take it. And in this great commonwealth and all across our land we are going to win together, we are going to vote together we are going to win the greatest election in the history of our country may be the greatest election of all time. [ cheers and applause ] [ Crowd Chanting ] after we all have been through all of this together we have nobody has, theres never been anything like this. An enemy from within, and theres an outside enemy, and if you are smart the Enemy Wont be a Problem Russia China North Korea we are not going to have a problem if you have a smart president if you have not such a smart president then its a problem, but we have an enemy from within which i think is much more dangerous than the outside enemy we stand on the verge of the four greatest years of the history of our country we can make these the four greatest years well turn it around so fast that your head will spin. With victory on November 5th we are going to redeem americas promise and unlock the extra ordinary future that is just within our reach it is now within our reach. Think of it one month from today one month. We got to get there. We got to get there. They will drop all sorts of bombs they will be hitting you, jd, these people will hit and hit, but i think we have almost become immune to it, havent we . We have become immune to it. You got a little dose of it a couple little doses of it no thats the only way they can think about with winning with open borders who once open borders who wants men playing in womens sports . Who wants Sex Change operations for illegal aliens . In Holding Bins no i dont think so we will begin a new era of soaring Income Skyrocketing wealth millions and millions of new jobs and a booming middleclass we are going to boom like weve never boomed before. And we are going to unleash a Manufacturing Renaissance Right here in pennsylvania including fracking like never before. We are going to frack, frack, frack. Our opponents said we will never frack then she started seeking Poll Numbers. Do you mind if i mention Poll Numbers i only mention them when they are good. But one thats hit me, Rasmussen Jd just came out i dont think you heard this one but this is a shocker. They always say the democrats would win the Hispanic Vote but weve been creeping up rather rapidly and rasmussen is one of the most respected polls republicans would get six, nine, 10 they just came out with a poll 62 for trump, think of that. And 34 for kamala. I dont usually use her last name, i go Harris Harris . Whos harris . They say. This is happening all the time, and we cant find out who she is because if we do our country is going to be in big trouble. We will live in a very beautiful City Or Town that are safe and clean with borders that are sealed and secure, and again we want people to come into our country we want that we need that but they are going to come in legally with love for our Country And America will once again be strong and confident entry. We are going to have that. We are going to have a strong, confident, and free. Thats why im here today. I could write now be having a beautiful life i dont have to be here.
