WTTG Fox 5 News Edge Eleven July 21, 2016

Failures of the Obama Clinton agenda and showing a better way. We will win the hearts and minds of the American People with an agenda for a stronger, and more prosperous america. Now, the establishment in washington, d. C. Thinks its only a narrow range of voters who are giving donald trump a serious look, but i can tell you firsthand, theres a lot of americans out there who feel like democrat politicians have taken him for granted. Its Union Members who dont want a president who promises to put a lot of coal miners and Coal Companies out of business. Those miners want an american that donald trump digs coal. Its africanamericans who remember generations of hollow promises about safe streets and better schools, and they know donald trump will fight for equal opportunity and he loves educational choice. And its hispanic americans who respect the law, want jobs and opportunities for their families who know that donald trump will uphold the law and get this economy moving for every american. You know, the party was founded on equality of opportunity, and during these difficult days, it will be our party and our agenda that opens the doors for every american to succeed and prosper in this land. You know, in so many ways, the Democratic Party abandoned those it used to protect. Maybe theyve become too entrenched in power, so comfortable at times they lose patience with the normal legislative process. Its so much simpler to impose their values by executive order, or court action. And make no mistake about it, Hillary Clinton has some big ideas along those lines, too. As this election approaches, every american should while were filling the presidency for the next four years, this election will define the Supreme Court for the next 40. We all better think very carefully, very carefully about what this means for our constitution, and limited government. Elect Hillary Clinton and you better get used to being subject to unelected judges using unaccountable power to take unconstitutional actions. Though let me say, for the sake of the rule of law, for the sake of the sanctity of life, for the sake of our second amendment, and for the sake of all our other godgiven liberties, we must ensure that next president appointing justices to the supreme c and Hillary Clintons record on Foreign Affairs gets even worse. You know, it was Hillary Clinton who helped undo all the gains of the troop surge, a staggering failure of judgment that set isis on the loose. It was Hillary Clinton who insgaited the president s disastrous agreement with the radicals in iran, and it was Hillary Clinton who left americans in harms way in benghazi, and after four americans fell, said what difference at this point, does it make . As the proud father of a United States marine, let me say from my heart, anyone who said that, anyone who did that, should be disqualified from ever serving as commander in chief of the armed forces of the United States of america. Seven and a half years of barack obama and Hillary Clintons polici policies have weakened americas place in the world. Terrorists attacks at home and scenes from france just a few short days ago, and the attempted coup in turkey all a test to a world spinning apart. History teaches us that weakness arouses evil. Hillary clinton and Barack Obamas Foreign Policy of leading from behind, moving redlines, fainting resets with russia, and the rise, rule, and reign of isis are a temptamestaf this history. We cannot have four more years apologizing to our enemies and abandoning our friends. America needs to be strong for the world to be safe and on the world stage donald trump will lead donald trump will rebuild our military and stand with our allies. Donald trump will confront radical islamic terrorism, and its source and destroy the enemies of our freedom. And if the world knows nothing else, it will know this, america stands with israel. [ cheers and applause ] you know, if you looked at the calendar this morning, you might have noticed the presidency of months from today. And this much is certain, this much is certain of the obama years, theyre not ending well. There seems to be so many things that divide us, so few great purposes that unite us as they once did. And its at moments like moments when politics fail that i believe we do well to remember that what unites us far exceeds anything that sets us apart in america. That we are as we have always been, one nation, under god, in devisable, with liberty, and justice for all. [ cheers and applause ] should i have the awesome privilege to serve as your Vice President , i promise to keep faith with that conviction. To pray daily, for a wise and discerning heart for who is able to govern this great people of yours without it. My fellow americans, i believe we have come to another rendezvous with destiny, and i have faith in the boundless capacity of the American People, and faith that god can still heal our land. But we have a choice to make. This is another time for choosing. If you want a president who will protect this nation, confront radical islamic terrorism and rid the world of want a president who will restore law and order to this country and give Law Enforcement the support and resources they deserve, if you want a president who will cut taxes, grow our economy, and squeeze every nickel out of the federal bureaucracy, if you want a president who will build strong borders and enforce our laws, and if you want a president who will upend the status quo in waush washington, d. C. , and appoint justices to the Supreme Court who will uphold the constitution, we have but one choice, and that man is ready. This team is ready. Our party is ready. And when we elect donald trump, the 45th president of the United States, together, we will America Great again. Thank you. And god bless you. And god bless the United States of america. [ cheers and applause ] donald trump, they just put him on the video board inside, lets listen. A little birdie tells us that whole trump family is coming out.

Tom, the speech the booing andg donald trump walked in right atr the end. What was it like to be there ane watch this happen in person . Pe . Reporter you know shawn,no a jim, weve said this a millionln times over the course of campaign. Right . You cant make up this i stuff. And this tonight was politicalic theater at its highest level. Lv this is going to go down as onee of the most remarkable eveningse in an american Political Convention ever. Eve consider this. S ted cruz essentially walked intn a donald trump casino tonight tt and tried to lay down a very big bet. Be gambling that he could take that stage this evening, deliver his speech and not endorse the partys candidate donald trump. Well when the delegates finallyn got wind of this, the way this speech was going and donaldndon trump was not going to give thee what they wanted they starting booing him. H cruz delegates started it firsti but the trump people out numberm them and then it got ugly. Shawn and jim, can he heard froo several sources, heidi cruz, ted cruzs wife had to be escorted r out of this building thiss evening because people were screaming and cat calling at het from the floor. Lo at some point they were Goldman Sachs because that issea where heidi cruz used to work. W this got ugly fast. F you know, i dont k we have ever seen anything like this ati a Political Convention in a generation may be going back to 1976. Maybe going back to 1968. We are going remember this nig night. Certainly a spectacle. Almost like ted cruz stole ther show for minute there. I have to ask you also abouto a this fits. During the middle of his speechs we noticed the screens go black lined heim. Ned there was flicker. Cker. People at home were trying toe t figure out what was going on. What were you hearing . Reporter we had the sackeths same reaction. This one behind me came back on this one on the side behind myid head is still out. Ad that entire ring behind meg behd should be lit up. Shoulde li all these screens started to goo out when ted cruz was talking. N. When study cruz was getting get booed a lot of people weringt ow looing at each other likeer whae is going on. Oin we can tell you this electricala problem continued int beginning portion of newtnewt gingrichs speech. Make no mistake while all this t excitement was going on in the t hall, there was excitement going up around us, too, nobody was quite sure whether this waser ts electrical problem, whether ther had pulled the plug on ted cruzc what was going on. N. For a few minutes there nobodyy really new. New. We certainly know what folks will be talking about tomorrow. O also tom i heard reports thatha when ted cruz walked off thelkff stage and behind stage peopletae were saying to his face theyaceh were calling him a disgrace. Gr so it will be certainlyertaly interesting tomorrow to hear what everybody is talking aboutt after all of this. T reporter shawn, this wass ws remarkable. Reable it was probably not the finest s end to this night that theight t republicans were hoping for. G f they wanted a theme tonight toit be unity. Be unity that is not what they got. G not at all. Ot at Tom Fitzgerald reporting livetie tonight. Thank you, tom. Outside the convention hallo the burning of the american flaf in protest. Test the city cleveland seen itseents share of controversy outside tht r inform c. Im very is here with look whatsh w going on outside. They were bracing for somefor se unrest outside they definitely had that today. Y the third day in here and policc arrested protesters were talking 10 to 15 people theyeo t took into custody and charged. The most turbulent day by far. Ar so far lets take look now at the video you can see police and protesters clash in the video here. He someone who claimed to be withee the revolutionary communist cmui party said the group organized o the burning of the american flaf as a quote political statement e about the crimes of the americaa empire. Theres nothing great aboutbo america end quote. Q officers swarmed that area oncea the flags started to burn. Pushing and shoving, broken outt as the firefighters tried to extinguish the flames. Some in the crowd yelling at the officers blue lives murder. Lue m now as you know, it is withins h their First Amendment rights to burn the american flag. F they can do that. However, police say the whole w situation here got really out oa hand. Take listen. In doing so, the individualna that actually lit the will himself on fire. Ll himlf o as we were trying to put him out hes trying to push my officer c away, he actually got coupleot u other people lit on fire which r we tried to put out, too. So that turned into, again, from our standpoint unlawful assemblm and violence being perpetratedpr against an officer because theyb assaulted the officer trying too extinguish the flames. La now the chief didnt want tot point out did he say that say everyone else has been bee protesting in a peaceful way. Ce so this was just a few people pl out there. Bad apples so to speak. But there are some feather thatt is have been ruffled among the conservatives because theres te two conservatives lgbt advocacyy groups. Ps. Not two things you wouldo normally hear about beingr about together here at this conventi convention. You probably remember you heard about third blind eye concert. Youve heard of third eye thd blind in the past couple of tas years. Years. Last night they were ine i between songs talking aboutalkia supporting lgbt rights. Right a lot of people in the crowd c were booing them for that. Think a lot of people realizeded Caitlin Jenner was a republicani when she came out she said ii was tougher in hollywood to comm out as a republican than it wast to be transgender. Er thats quite a statement. E thats for sure. At for today she today was pushing forr her party to be more openepe minded. Mi heres what she had to say. I think the Republican Party needs to understand, they needhn to know people who are trance. Rc there are actually trance peopla out in this audience right now. You have no idea that theyre trans. Tran okay . applause . Use which is a wonderful thing,ug and so im here today so you you since most people dont know anybody whos is trans get toet know somebody. Somebod there you go. T now, she also took some time to bash the anti trans gender billi support beside a lot ofsida l conservatives. Ervatives. She also noted, you know, wanten to make the point there haveav been some republican lawmakersae in the past who have been theavn ones that have kind of been, yoy know, in trouble for lewd f l behavior in the tra inform s people and of o course the most recent ones that comes to find i think of Larry L Craig in the minnesota airport and the wide stance issue. Ss so there you go. Caitlin jenner stated before she backed ted cruz going into g this. This. Hoping to be some sort ofo beome advocate for transgender issues for ted cruz had he gotten the nomination. Mi didnt happen. Na there she is. She is. There you go. Ou g. Thanks, very. ,er sure. S the anticipation is buildingg over who Hillary Clinton will cn choose as her running mate. E. Tonight two names emerged asrged leading candidates of course o u were talking about agriculture secretary tom sill vac and virginia senator tom kean. N. Theyre governing experience. Xpe clinton is expected to select at runngni mate as soon as friday. Now to that massiveas technical malfunction thaton grounded thousands of southweste Airlines Flights today. Fox5s tisha lewis live in baltimore with the latest. Tisha, are things still s reporter i would say so,ld s shawn. You think youve had a long dayy well think again. Nk again. You can see the folks behind mem some of them lets just walk wal along this line. Its moving slowly but surelyutr some of these folks have beene b here since weve been here. Er. Were talking about four hours,u maybe even longer. R even though the faa says that the computer glitch was fixedas and the problem is solved andd a planes are back up and running,i you can see around me it m indicates otherwise. Indiwi now some people again startedtad their wait in line actually outside the airport before theyy were able to work
