To begin the construction of the keystone and the Dakota Access pipelines. Anywhere from 3040,000 jobs. And very importantly, as i was about to sign it, i said who makes the pipe . Who makes the pipe . Something this audience understands very well; right . Simple question. The lawyers put this very complex document in front. I said, who makes the pipe . They said, sir, it can be made anywhere. I said not anymore. I put a little clause in the bottom. The pipe has to be made in the United States of america if were going to have pine line. We believe in two simple rules. I can tell you everybody in this massive this sl a massive hanger. For the big planes. And by the way, do you think that one media group back there, one network will show this crowd. Not one. Not one. They wont show the crowd. You know, coming in on the plane, and that plane represented so much. And just so you know, they were close to signing a 4. 2 billion deal to have a new air force one. Can you believe this. I said no way. I said i refuse to fly in a 4. 2 billion airplane. I refuse. So i got boeing and it is actually a lot of people dont know. The air force one project is actually two planes. Why they need to planes, well have to talk about that, but they have two planes, but weve got that price down over a billion dollars and i probably have it spoken to be honest with you for honest probably an more than an hour on the project. I got the generals in who are fantastic. I got boeing in. I told boeing its not good enough. Were still not going to do it. The price is still too high. On the fighter jet. We were hundreds of billions of dollars overbudget. Seven years late, great plane. A great plane. So think of it. Theyre seven years laet. Hundreds of billions of dollars overbudget. Other than that by the way the project is going extremely well. And i got the folks in from lock heed marten who are terrific people and a terrific product by the way. I also got boeing in. I said do me a favor, give mae competing offer. And now theyre competing and fighting and weve gotten hundreds of millions of dollars off the price of a plane that was going to be ordered, in other words, if my opponent got in, there would have been no calls made to them. They would have signed contracts. So theyre going to make plenty of money, but its going to be a lot less than they would have made without trump. That i can tell you. You might as well know about it. Nobody talks. By the way, thats for fighter jets. One of the biggest orders in the history of aviation. The order for the f 35. Youve been reading about it because it was a disaster. Under the last administration. A disaster. And now we have it running beautifully. In fact, when the prime minster of japan, prime minster abe, was great. Great guy. When he came over, he said, thank you. I said for what. You saved us many, many millions of dollars on the f 35 fighter jet. Because when i negotiated, i took our allies into the same negotiation. So the first thing he did was thanked med for saving them money and thats good. Okay. Thats good. I know the media will never thank me so at least japan is thanking me, right . But we believe in two simple rules. By american and hire american. We believe it. Weve just issued ale new order which requires that for every one new regulation, two old regulations must be eliminated. And by the way, a new director was just approved. Can you imagine the length of time its taken to democrats and i actually think its an embarrassment to them, but this is getting in to be record setting terre tore. Incredible people. Scott pruitt was just approved, just now approved for the Environmental Protection agency. Hell do so good. He wont have projects going ten and 12 years and getting rejected. They may be rejected, but theyll be rejected quickly. For the most part, theyre going to be accepted. Theyre going to be environmentally friendly and he is going to be a great secretary. He will be amazing. Were very happy. That took place yesterday. Thats going to be a big difference because they were clogging up the veins of our country with the Environmental Impact statements and all of the rules and regulations. It was impossible to navigate for companies. And what did it really mean . Forget about the companies . What did it mean. It meant no jobs. It meant companies leaving our country and going to Foreign Countries to do things they would rather do here. So were going to have a whole big situation. We are going to unfreeze all of those companies. They are going to be theyre going have freedom. Be able to build what they want to build. It will be environmentally friendly and were going to start producing jobs like youve never seen before. Thats going to happen. That was a big thing. Were standing up for the incredible men and women always of Law Enforcement. Were standing up. And i can tell you, the military and Law Enforcement they stood up. I dont say for me. Im the messenger folks. Im to messenger. They stood up for us in this last election. We got numbers that nobody believed were possible from Law Enforcement and from military. Basically people they wear uniforms like us. Isnt that nice. I saw this man on tvlgs just now, you. I just saw him on television. He said i love trump. Let trump do what he has to do. Thats my guy right there. Come leer. Come here. No, i just. Im coming in. Thats okay. Let him up. Im not worried about him. Im only worried hes going to give me a kiss. Im not worried about anything else. This guy is so great. He was one of many people. Theyre interviewing people in the line. And i have to say, there was a tiny group of protesters out there and they were given as much publicity as this massive room packed with people, but they interviewed this man. Come on up here. Come on up. Guy was great. Hop over the fence. Come on. He can do it. Hes in good shape. Look at him. Look at this guy. Come on. This guy is great. Dont worry about him. No, no. Come here. Theyre going to come on up. Come here. [ cheers ] this guy. So hes been all over television saying the best things and i see him standing and didnt you get here at like 4 in the morning. I did sir. Say a couple of words to this crowd. Mr. President , thank you so, sir. We the people, our movement is the reason why our president of the United States is standing here in front of us today. When President Trump during the election, promised all these things that he was going to do for us, i knew he was going to do this for us. Thank you so much, sir. A star is born. A star is born. Thats fine. [ crowd chanting usa, usa ] i wouldnt say that secret service was thrilled with that, but we know our people, right . We know our people. Great guy. And so many others. I see some others. Being interviewed. I see them over here. They started. They came at 4 in the morning. The media will give them no credit. The media, as i told you, wont show this crowd. All the way outside of this this is a big a hanger as you get. All the way outside. Way back to the fences. Amazing. I want to thank you, but i want to thank everybody. Ive directed the department of justice to take a firm, firm stance to protect our cops, sheriffs and police from crimes of violence against them. We will work with our police not against our police, our police do a great job and theyve never been troubled like theyre troubled now. Its very unfair whats happening. So we want to cherish our Law Enforcement. We will always protect those who protect us. Weve directed the creation of a task force for reducing Violent Crime in america, including our inner cities. Were going to make our inner cities safe again. Look at whats going on. Look at whats happening in chicago. Hundreds of shootings, hundreds of deaths. Ill tell you whats happening in chicago and many other places. Safety is a civil right. And we will fight to make america totally safe again. [ applause ] ive ordered the department of Homeland Security and the department of justice to coordinate on a plan to destroy transnational criminal cartels which are all over the United States and we are going to stop the drugs from pours into your country, into your community, into your cities and poisoning our youth. Were stopping it. Were stopping it. Weve taken historic action to secure the southern border and ive ordered the construction of a great border wall, which will start very shortly. And ive taken Decisive Action to keep radical islamic terrorist the hell out of our country. So you probably read where we want to enforce the laws as existing. And so we signed an order a couple of weeks ago, and it was taken over by a court originally by a judge and then a [ cloud booing ] yes, its very sad. The reason is for protection and safety. So the statute is so plain and so clear. I said last week, i was speaking to a great group of sheriffs, the Sheriffs Group in washington, and i said if you have a college education, you can understand its. If you have a high school education, you can understand it. If you were a bad student in high school, you can understand it. I was told. Ill check, but i found it hard to believe. Over 30 page decision by the appellate court. Three judges. And you could tell by the way they were reacting because it was broadcast on television. Everything we do gets a lot of people watching. So you could tell by the way that phone call went, wasnt looking good. When they wrote their decision, as i understand it. Maybe im wrong. They didnt write the statute they were making the decision about because every word of the statute is a total kill for the other side. So i thought i would read it. And heres what it says. This is what it says. Whenever the president finds that the entry of any aliens or any class of aliens into the United States okay. So essentially. Whenever somebody comes into the United States. Right. If it would be detrimental to the interest of the United States okay. Now you know the countrys were talking about and these were countries picked by obama. They werent even picked. They were picked by obama. He may, so the president may, by p proclamation and for such period as he shall deem necessary now, because it should have said he or she, right. They were not politically correct when they drew this. In fact, thats the only thing that was actually wrong with it. He or she. I dont think the women care too much about that. Right . I dont think so. By the way, we did very well with women. [ applause ] you know, my wife said when some of these phony polls were put out, the cnn poll was so far off, the phony polls. When some of these, she said, whats wrong with you and women. We did very nicely with women. We did nicely with a lot of groups they didnt think we were going to do so nicely with. I guess we had to. Thats why were all here tonight. Right . So and it goes for such as he shall seem necessary suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants or impose on aliens any restriction he may deem to be appropriate. So basically it says the president has the right to keep people out if he feels its not in the best interest of our country. Right . Unbelievable. Unbelievable. And i listened to these judges talk and talk and talk. So unfair. So well be doing something over the next couple of days. We dont give up. We never give up. We had a court that i disagree with. I disagree with big league and by the way, whether you read it or whether you watch it on television when other lawyers come on, many of them cant even understand. Theyre saying how do you come up with that decision. It cannot be more simple. So theyre ruling on what i just read you and they dont even quote it in their ruling because you cant because its too obvious. So we will do something next week. I think youll be impressed. Lets see what happens. Heres the bottom line. Weve got to keep our country safe. You look at whats happening. Weve got to keep our country safe. You look at whats happening in germany, you look at whats happening last night in sweden. Sweden, who would believe this. Sweden. They took in large numbers. Theyre having problems like they never thought possible. You look at whats happening in brussels. You look at whats happening all over the world. Take a look at nice. Take a look at paris. Weve allowed thousands and thousands of people into our country and there was no way to vet those people. There was no documentation. There was no nothing. So were going to keep our country safe. And we all have heart. By the way. And what i want to do is build safe zones if syria and other places so they can stay there and live safely until their cities and their country, that mess that i was left by obama and everybody else folks, we were left a mess like you wouldnt believe, but were going to build safe zones. Were going to have those safe zones. We do owe 20 trillion. Okay. So were going to have the gulf states pay for those safe zones. Theyve got nothing, but money. Were going to do it that way instead of taking massive numbers. Tens the of thousands of people into our country and we dont know anything about those people. We want people to come into our country, but we want people that love us. We want people that can cherish us and the traditions of our country. We want people that are going to be great for our country. We dont want people with bad, bad ideas. We dont want that. Ive also directed the Defense Community headed by general now you know, he said it. He said it. And now secretary mad dog mattis, to develop a plan to totally destroy isis. I have ordered the department of defense to begin plans for the great rebuilding of the United States military. We will pursue peace through strength. Our military is badly depleted. You have planes in the military. Where the father flew them and now the son is flying them. Their so old. We make the best equipment anywhere in the world. Were going to start using our best and most modern equipment. And were going to make sure or veterans have the care they need when they come home. We love our veterans. Were going to do a great job for our veterans. Our veterans have been very, very sadly treated. These are our great great people. We owe them so much. Our veterans are going to be taken care of for once and for all. Our system and our country has led down our veterans. We are not going to let that go on any further. You wait and you see what were going to be doing for our great veterans. Thank you veterans. Who is here . Who is a veteran . Were going to take care of our veterans. Were going to downsize the bloed e bloated bureaucracy which make the government lien and accountable. Were going to drain the swamp in washington, d. C. [ crowd chanting ] ive already imposed a five year lobbying ban on the executive Branch Officials and lifetime ban on lobbying for a foreign government. And theres another major promise i have kept to the American People. Ive nominated a fantastic justice to replace the late great justice scalia. His name is judge neil gorsuch. R he comes from my list of 20 very, very highly qualified judges. Hes incredible and has an incredible resume. Hes respected by all. His education is as good as it can get. His writings are truly amazing. He will be a true defender of our constitution. So lets tell the Senate Democrats to support his nomination for the good of the country because whats happening with the democrats no wonder theyre doing so badly. No wonder theyre doing so badly. You take a look, race after race, i just want the tell you, in case you didnt read it, of course youre reading the fake news, but the democrats were supposed to win the presidency. That didnt happen. They were supposed to take over the senate. That didnt happen. And they were supposed to take over potentially even the house. It was going to be four weeks out the greatest defeat in the modern history of american politics. And it was, but it was for the democrats, not for the republicans. [ cheers ] so we have to tell the democrats because theyre doing the wrong thing for the American People to stop their tactics of delay and obstruction and destruction. They got to get on with it. My administration is also pushing ahead strongly with very historic tax reform. We are working to lower tax rates in the middle class to reduce tax rates big league on businesses and to make our tax code more fair and very simple for all americans so its understandable by everyone. Senate democrats should work with us to lower taxes and bring back our jobs, but the democrats want to increase your taxes very, very substantially. Were not going let that happen. Also time for the Senate Democrats to take responsibility for obamacare and to work with us to replace it with new reforms that reverse this nationwide health care tragedy. Its a tragedy. You look at some states, arizona, up 116 . Your deductibles have gone so high you can never use it. Obamacare doesnt work. Its become totally unaffordable. Remember they said the health care, its unaffordable. It doesnt work. And i said to the republicans, i said you want to do something great politically dont do anything. Sit back for two years, let it explode. The democrats will come and beg for us to do something, but we cant do that to the American People. We have to fix it. And we will. We need members of both parties to join hands and work with us to pass a 1 trillion infrastructure plan to build new roads and bridges and airports and tunnels and highways and railways all across our great nation. Youre all part of this incredible movement. This movement that we talk about so much. Thats been written about on the cover of every magazine all over the world. Its a movement that is just sweeping. Its sweeping across our country. Its sweeping frankly across the globe. Look at brexit. Look at brexit. Much smaller example, but its still something you can look at. People want to take back control of their countries and they want to take back control of their lives and the lives of their family. The nation state remains the best model for Human Happiness and the american nation remains the greatest symbol of liberty, of freedom and justice on the face of gods earth. And now we have spirit like weve never had before. Its now that we have our sacred duty and we have no choice and we want
