Arizona begins in-person and absentee voting, here's what you need to know
Arizona began early voting Wednesday, marking yet another major swing state where voting is underway in the 2024 election.
With Arizona now in the mix, 41 states and Washington, D.C., have launched some form of early voting.
Here is everything you need to know to cast your ballot in the state.
NEXT PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATION HAS TO ‘GET SERIOUS’ ABOUT IMMIGRATION, SAY VOTERS IN KEY BATTLEGROUND STATE
Arizona is one of the most competitive states this cycle
President Biden scored a crucial victory in Arizona in the last presidential election, flipping the state to the Democrats for the first time since 1996.
Four years later, the state remains highly competitive. In late September, a Fox News Poll put Republican former President Trump at 50% and Democrat Vice President Harris at 47% among likely voters; an AARP survey around the same time had Trump two points ahead of Harris at 49%-47%.
Maricopa County remains the most important battleground in the state. It is the fourth-highest populated county in the United States, represents more than 60% of Arizonaâs registered voters and has a large suburban population, particularly in Mesa.
Arizona is also home to a higher proportion of Hispanic voters than the rest of the country, and while they favored Biden by 19 points in the last election, they have shown signs of shifting toward Trump.
Republicans are strongest in sparsely populated rural areas, particularly Mohave County (Trump +51) and Graham County (Trump +45), but they run up the margin most in the outer suburbs and exurban areas in Maricopa, Pinal and Pima counties.
Arizona is a Toss Up on the Fox News Power Rankings.
The Grand Canyon State will also vote for a new senator after independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema decided not to run for re-election this year. The Republican candidate is Kari Lake, a former TV news host who ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2022. The Democrats have fielded Rep. Ruben Gallego, a former Marine who represents Arizonaâs 3rd Congressional District.
The Senate race is ranked Lean D.
Key downballot races in todayâs early voting states
There are two competitive House districts in Arizona:
- 1st District: This district covers a northeast chunk of Maricopa and is represented by Republican Rep. David Schweikert, who has served Arizona in Congress since 2011. Biden won the area he represents by 1.5 points in the last presidential election (Daveâs Redistricting), making this an ultra-competitive race. Schweikert is up against Democrat and former state Rep. Amish Shah. Itâs a Toss-up on the Power Rankings.
- 6th District: Tucked away in the southeast corner of the state, the 6th District is represented by freshman GOP Rep. Juan Ciscomani. Biden won this area by an even thinner margin in 2020 â just 0.1 percentage points â making it another closely watched race. Ciscomani is running against Kirsten Engel, another Democrat former state representative. Itâs also a Toss-up.

Anti-Asian slurs scrawled on 'Dave Min for Congress' signs in Huntington Beach; suspect arrested
The Huntington Beach Police Department arrested a suspect after multiple âDave Min for Congressâ signs were found vandalized Tuesday, including several spray-painted with anti-Asian slurs, authorities said.
On Tuesday morning, Min signs were reported vandalized with offensive terms at Lamar Drive and Newland Street in Huntington Beach, department spokesperson Jessica Cuchilla said.
Pictures provided by Minâs campaign showed several signs defaced with a racist slur for someone of Asian descent. The incident is being investigated as a potential hate crime, Cuchilla said.
State Sen. Dave Min (D-Irvine), the son of Korean immigrants, is running in the 47th Congressional District to fill the seat being vacated by Democratic Rep. Katie Porter.
Around 2 p.m., the department responded to a second incident of Min signs being vandalized at Magnolia Street and Mediterranean Drive and arrested a suspect, Cuchilla said, adding that she did not know whether these signs also featured hateful language.
The suspect, Kevin William Walker, 62, of Fountain Valley, was arrested on suspicion of vandalism of property worth $400 or more, according to the Police Department. It is not yet known whether he is connected to the first vandalism incident, said Cuchilla.
Min released a statement saying the recent display of anti-Asian hate was âsaddening, but not surprising,â noting that it happened a few days after a Donald Trump rally in Huntington Beach on Saturday.
âUnfortunately, we have seen a sharp rise in hate in recent years due to the xenophobia and racism that have come to define Donald Trumpâs MAGA movement,â Min said in a statement. âWeâve all seen and heard Trumpâs anti-Asian rhetoric and his racist comments about Haitian immigrants.â
Min also said that Orange County residents are being âbombarded with Scott Baugh and MAGA Republican hit piecesâ claiming that because Min is the son of immigrants, he supports open borders.
Baugh, a Republican former member of the California state Assembly, is running against Min for the 47th District seat. The battleground district could play a key role in determining which party controls Congress come January. About 35% of its residents are registered Republicans and 35% are registered Democrats, according to the California secretary of state.
Baughâs campaign manager, Nic Gerard, told The Times, âWe condemn any vandalism of property, including political signs of any candidate for public office.
âAnd, as Scott has repeatedly said,â he added, âthere is absolutely no room for racism of any kind in America.â
Gerard said that if the Baugh campaign became aware of any information regarding the perpetrators of the vandalism it would report it immediately to law enforcement. He noted that several of Baughâs signs had also recently been vandalized.
Huntington Beach Mayor Gracey Van Der Mark, in comments to the Daily Pilot, said she too has had signs vandalized, and then went on to accuse Min of sowing division and ârace baiting.â

The 9 Elements of a Trump Rally
Thank you very much. Whoa. Thank you. Ah, thank you very much. Thank you. What a crowd. Well, I want to thank everybody. There has never been spirit⊠You know, we did great, as you know, in 2016. We did much better in 2020, bad things happened there. But thereâs never been spirit like we have for this one. Somethingâs going on thatâs very special. And I want to say hello, Pennsylvania. Iâm thrilled to be back in this beautiful Commonwealth with thousands of proud, hardworking American patriots. Before we begin, Iâd like to send my love and prayers to the families of those who have died, a lot of death, and all of those who are displaced and suffering in the wake of the hurricaneâs destruction in the South, especially in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee. And in particular, Western North Carolina took a tremendous hit. Itâs been absolutely devastated, and God be with you all. Itâs been a rough â itâs been a rough one. That was a big monster hurricane and it hit a lot harder than anyone even thought possible, so we want to just extend our best wishes to everybody. Right? And Joe Biden is in Delaware sleeping right now in one of his many estates. One of his many estates. How did he get so many houses? He never was anything⊠He was a politician, made $151. What the hell was it all about? And thatâs why lying Kamala Harris in San Francisco, a city that sheâs totally destroyed, thatâs where she is right now at a fundraiser. I donât know why fundraiser, they send her⊠They get so much money. You know who â a lot of people send money, I wonât tell you who, but people that you would not like very much. I could give you the names. I think I will release the names. But if I do that, theyâll say that Iâm a threat to democracy. âHeâs a threat.â You wouldnât like the names. They raise a lot of money from bad people, fundraising events with her radical left lunatic donors when big parts of our country have been devastated by that massive hurricane and is underwater with many, many people dead. She ought to be here, she ought to be down in the area where she should be. Thatâs what sheâs getting paid for, right? Thatâs what sheâs getting paid for. So heâs at home sleeping in one of his many estates, and sheâs in San Francisco, which she destroyed, trying to raise more money. She ought to get out and do more interviews. Thatâs what she ought to do. And Iâm here in Erie, Pennsylvania with the workers who used to be Democrats, but now theyâre all Trump Republicans because they know that Trump is going to take them to the Promised Land. We will. And by the way, so that you know, our polls are doing great, you saw that. We win Pennsylvania, we win; but honestly, weâre doing good everywhere. But we were at the Alabama-Georgia game yesterday. Did you see it? So just to show you, because this is a poll too, right? And I walked in, it must be my looks because the place went stone-cold crazy. Where is it? Put it up. We got to put it up. Itâs a great game. And that was a great game. Alabama got off to a really big start you wouldâve said it was over and then Georgia came back. What a great game that was. Great players, a lot of future NFL players in that group, but it was really great. But the level of love and enthusiasm and… Tim Walz, you know who he is, right? I wonât say which, but he went to a game, they booed him out of the place. He wanted to go home early. He wanted to get out of there. That was not good. It was not a good environment. But this is a poll. I mean, thatâs a poll. Itâs all a poll. You have thousands of people outside. But this is a poll. I mean, thatâs a poll. Itâs all a poll. You have thousands of people outside. We were in Wisconsin yesterday and except for the fact that the administration would not let us have the⊠We had 50,000, and maybe more people, and we were going to do an outdoor rally and we ended up having to do it inside in front of about 1,000 people. But we had 50,000 people that showed up, but they didnât want me to be outside. They said they couldnât get us enough people because they were guarding the United Nations and Iran. The president of Iran is here. But Iran is threatening my life and theyâre guarding the president of Iran, and Biden doesnât say anything. Iâd say some⊠If that were me, and I donât care who the opponent was, Iâd be letting him know you better not touch. You better not do anything. But, you know, â So theyâre guarding Iran and we had 50,000 people. It was the most incredible scene. Wisconsin, I think weâre going to do great in Wisconsin, but Rasmussen just came out with a big poll. Weâre leading and we have a couple of them where weâre leading virtually in every swing state because people are tired of her act. Weâre going to say some tough things today. People are tired of her act, her lying. Sheâs a liar and theyâre tired of it. I think they wouldâve been better off keeping sleepy Joe if you want to know the truth. I do. Early voting is beginning and get underway. Itâs all underway right now in Pennsylvania and Erie County is starting in the coming days. Erie County was known as a Democrat area until Trump came along and then they said, âWhat the hell?â Right, David? They said, âWhat the hell happened to Erie County?â Well, we love you. Weâre the same people. You me, weâre the same. We need each and every one of you to make a plan to vote early and vote absentee, do whatever you want. The main thing is you got to get out and you got to vote. I really believe that if you look at this date and look at whatâs happening to our country, I think November 5th will be the most important day potentially in the history of our country because our countryâs going bad. Itâs going bad. We have stupid people running it. We also need you to find as many other new voters as you can. So go get them. We have some voters, theyâre for us, but theyâve never voted and theyâre going to want to vote. Just a little bit prodding. Theyâll come out and theyâll vote. Our entire nation is counting on the people of the Commonwealth, and I know you will not let us down. Youâre not going to let us down. Weâre going to have a tremendous vote. Weâre leading by a lot in Pennsylvania. But I mean like a thing like fracking her whole life, âYouâll never frack. Never frack. There will be no petroleum product.â Weâre going to go to wind. Everythingâs going to be wind. Even if itâs not windy, then weâll suffer for a couple of days. Well, about 90% of the year weâre going to wind. Weâre going to lots of different things. They havenât worked anywhere else in the world, but weâre going anywhere. Thereâs no way she fracks her whole life⊠So she has 15 policies and over the last year and a half, every single one of them, she changed to the exact opposite like taking prisoners and giving them sex change operation, sheâs totally in favor. Thatâs what she wants. Thatâs one of the more men playing in womenâs sports. Who would want that? Frankly, the worst of all, and to me, the most ridiculous or almost most ridiculous, open borders. Let everyone come in to our country and destroy it. But if we win in Pennsylvania, we will win the whole thing. Weâre going to win and weâre going to turn our country around. Weâre going to turn our country around, right? David, we are going to turn our country around. Weâre going to turn around fast. And vote for that man right there. He is a great man. David McCormick, Senator. Bob Casey does nothing. He doesnât do⊠I was there four years. I donât know if I ever met the guy. He just votes along. Whoeverâs on the radical left, he votes. Itâs not your guy. Davidâs been there a long time. His father was there. He was there. You got to get somebody thatâs got energy. Heâs a low-energy person. Heâs a low-energy person. Remember the last time I said that? That family has never spoken to me again. 37 days from now, weâre going to win this Commonwealth. Weâre going to defeat lying Kamala Harris, and we will make America great again. We will do that. And this is the most important election. I think itâs going to be the most important election of them all. I mean, they had some pretty good ones, right? Long time ago, they had some pretty good ones, but this is⊠I thought that 2016 was the most, and Iâd say that this is the most important because the border was bad and then we fixed it 100%. It was so good, and then these guys took over and they destroyed it quickly. They got rid of little things like Remain in Mexico, you know, things like not easy to get, remain⊠When I told the president of Mexico, you know, everybodyâs staying in Mexico, âNo, no, we wouldnât do that.â I said, âYes, you will, because if you donât, weâre going to tariff your cars at 150% and thatâs going to be the end of that. Sir, weâd love to do that. Weâd love to keep everybodyâŠâ We had hundreds of thousands of people⊠Tijuana was probably the fastest-growing place on the planet. You ended up with like a half a million people there from a little town where you get a nice little drink, a half a million people, they couldnât get into the country. They wouldnât come in. Mexico was great, but I used tariffs in order to get that, but it was very important. As soon as they came in, they let the people just pour in. So it is so sad and weâre going to discuss that. If Kamala Harris gets four more years, America as we know it will absolutely be destroyed. Youâll have not 21 or 25, whatever it may be. Nobody has any idea. They have no idea. They like to say 12, 14, 13, itâs 21. It probably could be 31, could be a lot more than that. They have no idea, theyâre pouring in. Kamala is openly acknowledged to be the worst vice president in history. And as president, she would be much worse than that. She would be a disaster. I mean, they asked her⊠Did anybody see the Oprah interview? Oprah wanted to climb under the table. She couldnât⊠The whole thing is crazy. Two days ago, for the first time ever, the patriots of ICE this is the first time ever where they released murder numbers and rape numbers and human trafficking numbers. They never do that. They talk about overall nice and gently, but somebody felt that these numbers should be released and they came out actually just as she got to the border. It was very interesting. This was a little tough because she gets up and she goes, âWell, I didnât really get involved too much with the border, but Iâm going to now get involved.â Why didnât she do it almost four years ago? Why didnât she do it? Because she canât do it. She canât do it. Number one, she doesnât have the capability. Number two, her base will not let her do it. For whatever reason that is, you have to explain that. But new data came out and the massive number of savage criminal aliens that Kamala Harris has allowed to invade our country⊠This is an invasion and these people are mean, tough⊠She had a total⊠Listen to this. These numbers just came out. And Iâve been saying it for a long time, because we are the party of common sense. I knew that once they had open borders, all of the countries, I didnât think about all over the world, I thought in South America, itâs all over the world. Last week, a lot of people came in from the Congo, a big prison in the Congo in Africa. Welcome to the United States. They came in from the Congo. They come in from South America. They come in from Asia. They come in from all over the world. They come in from all over the world. The Middle East. You got to see from Yemen, theyâre coming in. We have more terrorists come into our country in the last two and a half years than weâve ever seen. You know, I had one year where border patrol said no terrorists came in. I had another year where they said 11 came in. Thousands of terrorists are pouring into our country now. Thousands. And theyâre coming into our cities and our small towns here in Pennsylvania and all over the country. These towns are petrified. Even if theyâre not there yet, they will be there because you have millions of people weâre dealing with. No country â this is not sustainable by any country in total. Listen to these numbers though. These are the official numbers. These are certified numbers. Can you believe it? This isnât her with her bullshit. In total⊠Sheâs a liar. In total during her term, itâs not even believable, she let in 13,099 convicted murderers. Some of them had murdered 10 people, some murdered seven, one murdered six. One â Iâm looking at these. These are stone-cold killers, and they let in people that are worse than any criminal we have. Itâs â the only thing nice about it is they make our criminals look extremely soft and nice. And remember these people, remember her and sleepy Joe saying, âNo, the people that we bring in, they donât create crime.â Iâm saying are they kidding? Iâm going to show you a video that I have that youâre going to see in a couple of seconds. Itâs brutal. One guy talking to a judge, âI will kill you.â These are brutal people. These are the people that we donât want. We all have big hearts and all that stuff. She let in 25,272 illegal aliens convicted of rape and other sex crimes, viciously raping. And 62,231 criminal aliens convicted of violent assault where people are just about dead, but they didnât die, but we took them in too. In total, she let in, listen to these numbers, 647,572 migrant criminals of the worst order. They call them of the worst order. I wonder what that means. Charged with or convicted with heinous crimes including child predators, drug dealers, vicious gang members, sadist thugs, and people that deal in women, people that take women and they sell women and they bring them across the border. Mostly women, children also, but mostly women. And theyâre all living in our country right now. And weâve had many killings, Rachel Morin, so many people have died. But wait till you see whatâs going to happen. Oh, and if I donât get in, itâs going to be the worst thing that this country has ever suffered because they wonât do a damn thing about it. And the number of 21 or 25 or whatever million it is, youâll have 150, 200 million coming. This country will no longer be recognizable. Itâs already close to that, and weâre going to get it taken care of. And I just say this to all rapists, drug dealers, human traffickers and murderers, welcome to America. It is important that you send a thank-you note to lying Kamala Harris because without her, you would not be here. But we donât want you here and youâre going to get the hell out. Very soon, weâre getting you out. When just one convicted murderer escapes from prison, in real life, we have one person will escape whoâs not nearly as bad as the people weâre letting in, heâs like â I mean, heâs like a perfect person compared to the people weâre letting in, youâll see that in a second. But if somebody escapes, we have a massive manhunt and we look all over the place and we got everything and the w⊠And we have 13,099 that just came in. We have massive manhunts. Itâs all over the place and they capture them. But now we have 13,099, thatâs just the murderers, and over 600,000 highest â they call them highest-level criminals in our country. Kamala let in the 13,099 convicted murderers and opposes all efforts to find them and to remove them. She opposes all these efforts because, look, sheâs a communist. You know that. I used to say Marxist, but unfortunately nobody knows what that is. Most people said, âWhatâs a Marxist? Is that a good thing or a bad?â I said I have to use the word communist, okay? Does anybody mind. And by the way, theyâre close enough. Remember I used to say our country will never be a socialist country, and I turned out to be right. They skipped socialism. They went right down to communism. So I was right. See, because Iâm right about everything, right? Trump is right about everything. They skipped socialism. Normally they go from socialism to communism. No, they skipped socialism. Kamala Harris can never be forgiven for erasing our border, and she must never be allowed to become president of the United States. Sheâll destroy⊠Sheâs a radical left lunatic. And one of the reasons Iâm angry, yesterday, she made a speech like everything on the border is good and sheâs going to fix the border. Did you see that crazy speech? âAnd Iâm going to fix the border because I was a prosecutor.â You know who she prosecuted? Mostly her political opponents like me. But how am I doing? Iâm doing pretty good, right? She actually had a terrible record as a prosecutor. And you know who she went after more than anybody? African Americans. They hate her. And she destroyed San Francisco. But what sheâs done is a total disqualifier. She should be disqualified. She should resign the vice presidency and go home to California, which she is by⊠Sheâs really destroyed it. But she should go home in disgrace. What Kamala has done with illegal migrants is the biggest crime story of our time because hundreds of thousands of people are going to be victims very shortly. Itâs happening. We had many of them. Yesterday, we had this incredible event. We had many of the parents of victims at the event. We had one or two that spoke⊠I mean, itâs impossible almost for them. Their lives are destroyed just so you understand. Their daughters were killed, their lives are destroyed, their sons are killed. And they were killed by migrants that came in illegally that were so vicious like youâve never seen before. Already hundreds of people have been murdered because of her action at the border. And thousands more will follow in rapid succession. She should be impeached and prosecuted for her actions. And these killers are stone-cold monsters and have so little heart. They have no heart. They really have no heart. Theyâre worse than anything you can see on television. You look at the mob pictures, the gangster pictures, the drug dealer pictures, these people are far worse. Thereâs nobody in Hollywood like this. You canât get people like this. Youâll see that in a second. And they donât care when or who they kill. They wake up the following morning, they donât ever remember. So itâs just a routine part of life. And theyâre in our country now. They donât even think about it. These are rough, vicious, rougher than anything you can imagine. And I say it all the time. If you wanted to do a movie on some of these people that youâre going to be looking at in two minutes, if you wanted to do a movie, thereâs no actor in Hollywood that could play their role. Thereâs nobody that could do it. These actors, theyâre a little bit shaky. They canât play the role. Theyâll bring in a big actor and you look, you say, âOh, heâs got no muscle content. Heâs got no muscle. We need a little muscle.â Then they bring in another one. âBut heâs got a weak face. He looks weak.â Now these guys have the whole package, unfortunately for our country. I watched one of them shouting at a judge, âI kill you. I kill you when I get out. I kill you.â And the judge, heâs never heard this stuff. And even the guards, they want to look for a new job themselves. âI kill you.â But itâs all because Kamala let these people in. Letâs take a look at this. Youâll find it very interesting. Central casting, Mr. Wall. Stand up, Mr. Wall. I love this guyâs outfit. I got to buy⊠Are they for sale? I want to buy one. I built hundreds of miles of wall. Iâm going to buy one of those and come out here. I built hundreds of miles of wall and it worked, and I was going to add another 200 miles and then we had a very disruptive election. Horrible thing happened. Horrible, horrible. Including in this state we wanted in 2016 easily. And then in this state, bad things happened because I love you and you love me. We did so good here. But you know what? I built hundreds of miles of wall and Iâm going to walk onto this platform someday at some place and Iâm going to wear that ugly, horrible suit because itâs emblematic. Itâs emblematic of what weâve done, right? Thatâs a great guy. He mustâve been to 250⊠Do you have any idea how many youâve come to? Hundreds. Hundreds. And heâs a very successful guy. You believe it. Itâs like they go to football games and they got the name⊠A top guy in a law firm or a top CPA, but on Sunday or Saturday goes to football and they have the name of the player on the back. I mean, who would do that? But they do that. I wouldnât do that. Just out of pride. Iâm not going to do that. We want to keep our own name on our back, right? But heâs been a great guy. Iâll bet heâs gone to 250 rallies. You may have the record, right? Or do we have the ladies from North Carolina? We have the front row Joes. Whereâs the front row Joes? Look at this. Look at these guys. Look at these front row Joes, but we have a great time with a horrible subject. Think how it will be when we fix it. We will really have a great time because weâre going to fix it and weâre going to fix it fast. But these people are very much like how the Democrats are and the way they cheat in elections. They have absolutely no shame. These criminals are the way the Democrats are. They have no shame whatsoever. They cheat and itâs almost like routine for them. It doesnât bother them at all. Kamala Harris lies about everything, and thatâs why they call her Lyinâ Kamala, L-Y-I-N apostrophe. Lyinâ. Lyinâ. Sheâs a liar. She lies about everything. She makes up stories about me, but yesterday, really, she said, I ripped babies out of a crib. Donald Trump ripped⊠I ripped babies. I said, âWhere did she get that one?â Every day. Itâs a new story. Now, if Iâm a person thatâs not really into knowing who Trump is, I would say heâs a terrible guy. He rips babies out of a crib. Remember when they blamed me for building cages to put kids in and then somebody from Border Patrol said, âIâm sorry, that was two years before President Trump came into office.â That was done by Barack Hussein Obama, right? That was Barack Hussein Obama. Remember that? I went through two weeks of hell and then finally somebody spoke up and said⊠I said, âI never built those things, and then it was Obama that built them,â so it took a little time. Did I get an apology from the fake news? Oh, thatâs a lot of fake news. Did I get an apology from the fake news? No. Did I get an apology from 60 Minutes when I said that the laptop from hell had nothing to do with Russia? It was done by Hunter. Did I get an apology from 60 Minutes? No. Remember that? She was fighting me. âThis was from Russia.â I said, âThis was not from Russia.â I wonât tell you what the pictures were. They were not good. They never got into the real pictures. Did they? If it was me, they wouldâve gotten into the real pictures real fast. They didnât get into those pictures. She makes up stories about everything, including herself like⊠I always get criticized because they agree that up to it. But why would I bring it up so much? Because itâs so simple. Itâs not a horrible plot. Itâs not a complex thing that people get bored with Uncle Sam. Itâs just basic. She said she worked so hard, she sweated over french fries at McDonaldâs and she never worked there. It turned out to be a lie, and the fake news doesnât want to talk about it. Although I heard a major news newspaper is doing a big story on it. Itâs a lie. Itâs a total lie. She never worked at McDonaldâs, but she lies about everything and we canât let her get into office, and thatâs why Iâm a little bit rougher than I would normally be. We started off with Crooked Joe Biden, and they kept him in a basement. They got lucky because of the horrible Covid situation. We did an amazing job with Covid. I got credit for the economy. I got credit for the military. We took out ISIS, we rebuilt them. I got a lot of credit. Space Force never got credit, and what we did was amazing. Nobody knew what it was. What we did was amazing with all of the things that we did were amazing actually. But when he came in and then he comes along and he stops, and all of a sudden you realize, and now we got him as a president, and the wall stopped and everything stopped and people started coming in. Oh, is my favorite of all time, my favorite graph. In fact, my favorite document of all time, and I have some good ones. There is never a document like this. Do you have? They donât even know Iâm going to be asking for this. This reminds me, oh, theyâre unbelievable. No, they didnât even know. Thatâs my favorite document. That document saved my life. Immigration saved my life. Without that document, I would not be here. Without that document, I wouldnât be talking to you. Without that document weâre not here. Because that documentâs always on my left. Itâs always on my left. Itâs always at the end of the speech, not the beginning. And I had it on my right because I donât use a teleprompter that much. Just pieces. By the way, I said this the other day, isnât it nice to have a president that doesnât need to use a teleprompter, isnât it, Uncle Sam? Isnât that nice? Isnât it really nice? But they do keep you out of a lot of trouble. You just read the line. I was watching her the other day. Bah, bah, bah, bah. Keeps you out of trouble because she canât answer a question. So this document turned out, at the beginning, think of that. What are the chances that itâs at the beginning and never did it at the beginning. Right at the beginning, and itâs on my right instead of my left, I was looking just at the right angle. Ping. I love that document. I sleep with that document every night. I kiss that document, love that document. But what the document says, now that we get back to order, what the document says is that that was the lowest point. The arrow at the bottom, that was the lowest point of illegal immigration in the history of our country. Itâs the lowest point that weâve ever had. We had it going good. That included drugs and that included trafficking of women and trafficking of children. We had it going and all they had to do is leave it. And they came in and they terminated everything. Sanctions, they terminated, remain in Mexico. They terminated every single thing and they ended up with⊠Look what happened. It was like a rocket ship, whatâs gone on. And then we found out on top of everything, I donât think they knew it at that time. They had flights coming in from all over different parts of the world. Flights, big, beautiful airplanes loaded up with migrants flying over the border. So they really did want people to come in. Now she says, âWell, I did good job, but weâre going to do a good job.â Why hasnât she done it? My expression with her the number⊠You can say every word she utters. Why havenât you done it? She goes, weâre going to do this and weâre going to do that. Sheâs there for almost four years, and I just keep saying- ⊠why I did it during the debate, I killed her in the debate. But I have crooked people. What they do, I had three on one. I didnât even mind that I still won by a lot. But why? And David Muir, how about him? How about that guy? Pretty boy. We call him pretty boy. Thatâs about it. Thatâs about all. But you know what I said, crime is at a level weâve never seen. Itâs rampant. Itâs rising. Okay? He interrupts me, âIâm sorry, sir. Crime in this country has gone down.â I said, without looking at numbers, is there anybody in this room that think that crime has gone down? Itâs gone through the roof and largely because of migrant crime. Itâs not only that in New York, you canât walk into a drug store now, itâs like youâre in a prison of glass. If you want to buy aspirin, you have to wait 45 minutes for a clerk to come up and open. And every drug store, I just lost one. I had a nice tenant. I just lost a tenant, had a beautiful tenant at 40 Wall Street. I just lost a tenant. They opened a big chain drug store, big beautiful chain. They opened. They were doing such great business, 40 Wall Street right across from the stock exchange. They gave me notice. They said, âWeâre going to have to close because the shelves⊠The people walk in, they just take everything they want. They walk out of the store.â What the hell is going on? See, we have to let the police do their job and if they have to be extraordinarily rough… And you know, the funny thing with all of that stuff, look at the department stores, same thing. They walk into a â you see these guys walking out with air conditioners, with refrigerators on their back, the craziest thing, and the police arenât allowed to do their job. Theyâre told, âIf you do anything, youâre going to lose your pension. Youâre going to lose your family, your house, your car.â The police want do it. The border patrol wants to do it. Border patrol, theyâre incredible. They want to do it. Theyâre not allowed to do it because the liberal left wonât let them do it. The liberal left wants to destroy them, and they want to destroy our country. You know, if you had one day, like one real rough, nasty day with the drug stores, as an example, where when they start walking out with⊠You know, she created something in San Francisco. $950 youâre allowed to steal. Anything above that, you will be prosecuted. Well, it works out that the 950 is a misnomer because you can steal whatever you want. You can go way above. But youâd see â originally you saw kids walk in with calculators. They were calcul âThey were calculators. They didnât want to go over the $950. Theyâre standing with calculators, adding it up. These are smart people. Theyâre not so stupid, but they have to be taught. Now, if you had one really violent day⊠Like a guy like Mike Kelly put him in charge. Congressman Kelly put him in charge for one day. Heâs right here. Heâs a great congressman. Would you say, Mike, that if you were in charge, you would say, âOh, please donât touch them. Donât touch them. Let them rob your store.â All these stores go out of business, right? They donât pay rent. The city doesnât have… Itâs a chain of events. Itâs so bad. One rough hour and I mean real rough. The word will get out and it will end immediately. End immediately. Itâll end immediately. Crooked Joe Biden became mentally impaired, sad. But Lyinâ Kamala Harris, honestly, I believe she was born that way. Thereâs something wrong with Kamala and I just donât know what it is, but there is definitely something missing. And you know what? Everybody knows it. Thank you very much. And honestly, we could give you clips like that all day long. This is not your president. This president would destroy our country worse than Biden. Heâs the worst president in history. She would be worse. Every day, Kamala is using migrant flights in her phone app. Think of this. Theyâre using a phone app where the migrants are allowed to phone them in so they find out how⊠But itâs really who really uses it? The cartels use it. The cartels use it because they pay off everybody, our crooked people, they pay them off. They have a phone app. Whereâs the best place to drop the people? But they want to flood up. Pennsylvania in particular, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and the entire Midwest with thousands of migrants from the most dangerous countries on earth, destroying the character of small towns and leaving local communities in anguish and in despair. Pennsylvania is not going to take it anymore. I donât think youâre going to take it anymore. I donât think so. As just an example, the beautiful 4,000 person town of Charleroi⊠Do you know Charleroi, Pennsylvania? Yes, beautiful. It was beautiful. Lots of luck, Charleroi. I love you very much, but you get in⊠Charleroi will be beautiful again. But right now itâs not so good. Itâs seen a 2000% increase in the population of illegal immigrants under the borders of Harris. So itâs population it. This a little town. No crime, no problem. Nice place to live. No problems. It just had a 2000%, 2000% increase in population with people just like weâre showing you today. Our country is being turned into a dumping ground for the world. We have no choice. The people that Kamala Harris has illegally imported have to go back to places from which they came. They have to go back. They have to go back. In August, an illegal alien who Kamala Harris released into our country, despite the fact that he was a convicted murderer and sex offender. Other than that, he was quite a nice gentleman. He was from El Salvador killed a West Virginia, mother of two. Killed her. Viciously, killed her. Didnât even think it was a bad thing. He didnât even think it was that bad. Only days ago, right here in Pennsylvania, an illegal alien ran over 23-year-old musician with his car-⊠and did it on purpose. And in New York, an illegal alien brutally murdered a woman in front of her children and enjoyed doing it. If Kamala Harris wins this election, she will overwhelm Pennsylvania cities and towns with illegal immigrants and migrants and Pennsylvania will never ever be the same. I went to school here. I love this place. I know it. Itâs so different. Whatâs happening to your beautiful place? No. I went to school here and I loved it. I always loved it. But whatâs happening? Whatâs happening is so different. Kamala is so radical. She even wants to legalize fentanyl. She wants fentanyl to come in. When one little drop, one little drop can destroy you, which is pouring⊠Itâs pouring across our borders at record levels, at levels that youâve never seen before, I mean everybody I know, they have family members that are dying, mostly children and many of them not even looking for drugs. They have something else where itâs something that⊠and itâs laced with fentanyl and they end up dying, a vicious death by the way. I brought something, the snake. Does anybody want to hear it? We donât have to do it. If you want to get back, should we do the snake or not? Should we, David, do⊠We got to get that guy in office? Should we do it? Itâs so apropos, right? Should we do it? Anyone see the snake? But itâs true. Itâs just so bad. But it is apropos, isnât it? Who has not heard the snake? Who has heard the snake? And they donât care, they want to hear it again. Letâs do it. This is about the border, essentially. It was an old song and little rewording and things, but it was very, very apropos and I think very good in a lot of ways. Got to learn your lesson. On her way to work, one morning down the path along the lake, a tender-hearted woman saw a poor half-frozen snake. His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew. âPoor thing,â she cried. âIâll take you in and Iâll take care of you.â â Take me in, oh, tender woman. Take me in for heavenâs sake. Take me in, oh tender woman,â sighed the vicious snake. She wrapped him up all cozy in a comforter of silk and laid him by her fireside with some honey and some milk. She hurried home from work that night and soon as she arrived, she found the pretty snake sheâd taken in had been revived. âTake me in, oh tender woman. Take me in for heavenâs sake. Take me in, oh tender woman,â sighed the vicious snake. She [inaudible 00:50:06] him to her bosom. âYouâre so beautiful, â She cried. âBut if I hadnât brought you in by now, you truly wouldâve died.â She stroked his pretty skin again and kissed and held him tight. But instead of saying, âThank you, maâam,â the snake gave her a vicious bite. â Take me in, oh tender woman. Take me in for heavenâs sake. Take me in, oh tender woman,â sighed the vicious snake. âI saved you,â cried the woman, âand youâve bitten me. But why? You know your bite is poisonous and now Iâm going to die.â âShut up, silly woman,â said the reptile with a grin. âYou knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in.â Thatâs whatâs happening on our border. Thatâs whatâs happening on our border. I mean, we can get a PhD in whatever it is from the best school in the world is not going to be more accurate than that. When you look at that guy up there talking to the judge, âI kill you. I kill you. I kill you.â Oh, he wanted to kill him. He will. If he gets out, heâll kill him, 100%. But you have to know. But this is what weâre bringing into our beautiful country, our beautiful USA. This is what weâre bringing, but weâre bringing them in at levels that nobodyâs ever seen. And weâre doing it by stupid people like Kamala. Sheâs a stupid person. Stupid person. I donât care. I donât. On day one of my new administration, the invasion ends and the deportations begin. We get them out. Thank you very much. As soon as I take office, I will stop all migrant flights to Pennsylvania and every other state. I will shut down all entries through Kamalaâs migrant phone app. If you can believe they have an app. They have a phone app. It’s called an app. Can you believe this? I will end immediately, catch and release. So I had catch and release too, but you know where I release them? In Mexico. I have catch and release too. But I released them in Mexico. Their catch and release was to catch them, even if they were a criminal, immediately they released them into our country. I release him into Mexico. I will end all sanctuary cities all over our country immediately. And I will restore, Remain in Mexico. Itâs called Remain in Mexico. And it wasnât easy to get. I had to fight like hell with the Mexican government and the president, a good man. But I had to fight like hell. When I told him I want everybody to stay in Mexico, he laughed at me. He laughed. He said, âWhat? Why would we do that? Why?â I said, âYouâre going to do it. No, no, youâre going to do it.â âNo, but we canât do that.â I said, âYouâre going to do it. And if you donât do it, weâre putting this massive tariff on everything you sell into our country, including all the cars you saw. And weâll make an absolute fortune on you. All right?â And, uh, he said, âBut Donald, it would be my great honor to do everything that youâd like to do. Please donât put those tariffs on me. Please. I beg you. Donât put the tariffs.â I will send in the federal law enforcement to liberate every Pennsylvania town and every town in the United States of America that has been taken over by migrant gangs and thugs and criminal aliens. Another front in Kamalaâs war on Pennsylvaniaâs way of life is her war on energy. She was always against fossil fuels. She was born that way. You donât change. She just changed because her poll numbers were bad. You donât change. Iâm the only guy this happens to. So I have the debate. Biden goes way down. Heâs down 21 points, I think. Iâm leading by 21 points. Crazy Nancy Pelosi. Sheâs crazy as her bedbug. Oh, by the way, by the way, by the way, Visa, right? Did you see? Visa, she owned a lot of Visa and the Justice Department brought suit against Visa. A vicious big, a terrible suit. And she sold all of her stock the day before the suit was brought. She owned it for years. Sheâs crooked. We offered her 10,000 soldiers or National Guard, and she knew that. And she actually admitted it on her daughterâs documentary. Sheâs a documentarian. I donât think Nancyâs too happy about that. She said it was her fault. It was her total responsibility. I couldnât believe the daughter released the tapes, but they werenât really released. They were gotten, somehow. Somebody gave them and she took total responsibility. J6. Nancy Pelosi said she turned down thousands of troops. National Guard. Now you didnât need thousands. You didnât need 10,000. I offered 10,000 or more because I felt it was going to be a very big day. Everybody was talking about it. But she turned them down. If she wouldâve had 200, 300, 400, January 6th would not have existed as we knew it. Now, think of it. And sheâs right on tape. âThis is my fault. This is my responsibility. I canât believe this has happened.â And then they try and blame me for it. I offered them 10,000 troops, whatever you need, a few days before, because I said, thereâs going to be a lot of people here. If Kamala is reelected, her Green New Scam will obliterate the economy of your commonwealth, obliterate it. All stupid stuff. It also caused a lot of inflation between the energy policies and everything else they did. But the crazy spending green new scam. It used to be called the Green New Deal, now we call it⊠Do you ever notice this was such a big deal, the environmental stuff? I havenât heard the environmental stuff mentioned in six months. I was saying the other night, what the hell happened to the environment? David, will you figure this out? David McCormick, everybody vote for him. David, will you figure this out? No, but think about this. Mike, they donât ever talk about the environment anymore. You know why? Mike is saying, âDonât talk about it now.â No, itâs one of the great scams of all time. You know why they donât talk about it? Because people arenât buying it anymore. I donât want to use bad language. My wife said, âPlease donât use bad language.â You know who said that? Right. The great son of the legendary Billy Graham, Franklin [inaudible 00:58:00]. He said, âSir, you are one of the greatest storytellers Iâve ever heard, but I listened to your rally the other night. You wrote me a beautiful letter and your stories would even be better if you didnât use foul language.â And I respect Franklin. I love Franklin. Franklin is a great guy. He really does a good job. I took that letter. I said, âGee.â Then I said, âOkay, I wonât use certain words,â but when you donât use those certain little keywords like bullshit, thereâs no other word. No, Iâm trying to find⊠Thereâs no other word. I mean, I donât use really bad words, but for emphasisâŠ. I tried it one time and it wasnât pretty. Instead of that word I said, âAnd itâs not true,â and people are looking like falling asleep. But when I win, we will get Pennsylvania energy workers fracking, drilling, pumping and producing like they have never produced before. Lyinâ Kamala vowed to repeatedly ban fracking and she imposed a natural gas export ban. That was a killer that is starving your state right now of your wealth and wealth that you deserve right now. She imposed a ban on the natural gas. Very bad. People donât even talk about it. Her insane electric vehicle mandate. This is where everybodyâs going to have an electric car within a very short period of time, but maybe not everybody wants an electric car. And we love Elon. I love Elon. He endorsed me, gave me the strongest endorsement, and his Tesla is great, but he understands this and he never wants⊠Somebody said, âDoes Elon ever speak to you about the electric?â I said, âNever spoke to him about it.â He never called me and said, âWhat the hell are you doing here?â because he understands. Heâs got a great market. It might be seven or 8%, but theyâre trying to have everyone 100%. Number one, theyâre made in China for the most part. They will all be made. The auto workers are now⊠You saw the Teamsters overwhelmingly supported me. You saw that. And the auto workers are overwhelmingly supporting me. Itâs pretty amazing. But the insane electric vehicle mandate, they want everybody to have an electric car, but they donât go far. They cost much more. There are a lot of problems, and they donât work well. You know, in Iowa, it was 20 degrees below zero and I always heard the cars donât work well in the cold. And I had a big night in Iowa. I won that whole primary thing. We won by numbers that nobodyâs seen before. So I remembered very vividly and Iâm driving there and there are cars all over the road. I said, âWhat the hell isâŠâ Goes, âSir, theyâre electric cars and they donât work in cold weather.â I said, âOh, that sounds like a bad idea.â No, there are a lot of problems, but there are a lot of⊠Some people want them, theyâre great. Other people donât, but you have to have your choice. If you want a gasoline-propelled car, if you want to have a hybrid, you should have it. You should be able to have it. The new thing is hydrogen. They have hydrogen cars. They have one problem. On occasion, it will blow up, and when it blows up, you are not recognizable. No, youâre not even recognizable. This is like a massive bomb being dropped. When it blows up, you are no longer⊠Your wife cannot identify you. Let me put it that way. âIs this your husband?â They show you blood. âIs this your husband?â âI really canât tell.â No. So thatâs a problem theyâre going to have to work out, I think. But they say thatâs the new up and coming thing. So far, Iâm not interested. Her insane electric vehicle mandate will decimate Pennsylvaniaâs economy by abolishing gas-powered cars and trucks for American roads and destroying your fossil fuel industry. And thereâs very few states that benefit like you do from fracking. I mean, you have 500,000 jobs. And if she gets it, sheâs going to just edit. Sheâs a liar. Remember, again, McDonaldâs, just put it in your mind. Itâs so simple. I donât have to go through a long story. She said she worked there. Sheâs a liar. Thatâs why weâre calling her L-Y-I-N apostrophe. And thanks to her green new Scam, your electricity prices are up in Pennsylvania 62% since she took office and are slated to be increased this year by more than 30%. Congratulations. If and when we win, everyone says, âSir, sir.â Say, if they didnât cheat, I wouldnât even be here today. You know why? I wouldnât have to campaign. Iâm here only because they cheat, and they cheat in this state, especially in Philadelphia, and Iâve mentioned a couple of the areas, but for the most part, but Philadelphia is out of control. Detroit is out of control. Atlanta is out of control. Places are out of control. Out of control. Because if there was no cheating, if God came down from a high and said, âI am going to be your vote tabulator for this election,â I would leave this podium right now because I wouldnât have to speak. We wouldnât have any problem. We have to have a landslide because they cheat so damn much. We have to have a landslide. Right Mike? So I never say when I win. Weâre leading in all the polls. Weâre leading the state. But I say if and when because I donât want to be obnoxious and I donât want to be foolish either. But if and when weâre leading big, I win, I will cut⊠Too big to rig. Youâre right. We want to make it too big to rig. But hereâs a big promise to Pennsylvania and to whole country by the way, because your prices are really high. I mean, for people with all of that power, all of that liquid gold under your feet, youâre getting screwed. Youâre paying high. Youâre paying one of the highest energy rates, including cars, air conditioners, heating, youâre paying one of the highest in the whole country. Perhaps your governorâs not doing a very good job. I donât know what the hellâs going on. But when you have that kind of energy, you shouldnât be paying the⊠But youâre one of the highest. But hereâs a promise Iâm making to you. I will cut your energy and electricity prices in half, 50%, five, O, within 12 months of taking the oath of our⊠Within 12 months, within 12 months of taking the oath of office, I will cut your energy prices by 50%, and itâs not going to be hard and I will terminate the natural gas export ban. Can you imagine we have a ban? We have countries that want pay us. We were energy independent four years ago, now weâre not. But more importantly, we were going to be energy dominant. I wouldâve been producing today three to four times what I was doing four years ago. I will repeal the insane electric vehicle mandate and we will drill, baby, drill, those two things very early, drill, baby, drill. Thank you. And earlier this month, I was honored to receive the endorsement, as I said just a little while ago, but I got the endorsement from the rank and file membership of the Teamsters. So it was a great honor. Iâve used in New York. Itâs a very union town. And I used the Teamsters for years. They were great. They drove the cement trucks where I poured the concrete frames, and I did it for many years. A lot of buildings, built many buildings, many, many buildings. And Teamsters, and I got along with them great, but I got 60% of the vote. Actually, I think more than that, but 60% of the vote. And some local chapters, we did even better in Pennsylvania. We got 65% of the vote from the Teamsters. Wow, thank you very much. I love the⊠Are there any Teamsters? Any Teamsters in the room? Good. Stand up, sir. Heâs a tough-looking guy. Very good. Good, thank you. And as a result of this, shocking. To me, itâs not shocking, but as a result, the national organization, as you know, has refused to endorse the Democrat candidate for president for the first time in decades. I mean, itâs been a long time. And I want to thank Teamsters president Sean OâBrien and all of the incredible rank and file Teamsters that did this. This was a big shocker for⊠It wasnât shocking to me. I said, âHow the hell are Teamsters?â These are tough people. How the hell are they going to vote for this woman, this terrible person? Sheâs weak in so many ways. Sheâs weak. Theyâre not going to vote for that. I said a long time ago, I donât believe⊠I actually believe they wouldâve been better if they left crooked Joe Biden in because I actually think at least he had a base. She has no base. She was the last person⊠She came in last because when he ran, he got 14 million votes, whatever you want. Iâm not a big fan of his. I wouldnât say heâs exactly the greatest. Do we agree? Not exactly the greatest. He doesnât have any idea where the hell he is, but I think heâs better than she is. And he had a base. He had a little base because of years and years. He made up a lot of it. He said he lived here. He lived there. He said, âI used to fly jets too.â If pilots came in, âI used to fly jets.â If truckers came in, âI used to drive a truck.â The worst of all though was when he said, âI want to play him in golf.â He wants to play me in golf. You ever see him play? Yeah. His career. And Trump⊠Oh, but Iâm a good golfer. No, Iâm a good golfer. He said, âI want to play him in golf. Iâll give him three strokes aside.â I said, âCan you believe this? The guy canât play. He never could.â By the way, 30, 40 years ago, he couldnât play either. I was also honored to receive the endorsement of the Fraternal Order of Police representing almost 400,000 police office, biggest organization all across our country. And also, I got almost every single police. Maybe I got them all, but I want to say almost because the fake news is back there, so I have to be careful. If I say I got them all and thereâs one little group in some place⊠No, but I got almost every single group of police officers and law enforcement, generally sheriffs, everybody. These are great people, and we got to let them do their job. Also, central to Kamalaâs agenda for economic destruction is her plan to impose the largest individual tax hikes in American history on you, the largest small business tax hike. She wants to get rid of the estate tax provision that I have in my tax where if you die and you love your children, you can leave your small farm or small business to your kids. If you donât love your children, it doesnât matter. Does anybody here not love their children? Okay, then Iâve covered 100% of the audience. Well, there are some, but theyâre embarrassed. They donât want to raise their head. But also, itâs the â she wants to impose the largest capital gains tax in history and even a brand new wealth confiscation tax, or as they call it, unrealized capital gain where you have to pay a capital gain even if you keep your business or keep whatever it is that you want to keep. You have to go out, get it appraised. And then, after you get it appraised, you have to negotiate⊠This is the craziest thing. Thatâs called the communist sex. Thatâs basically a confiscation. I mean, some people in this room, youâre wealthy, but you donât have a lot of cash and youâre no longer wealthy with this one. This one is whack job, but I donât know if itâs ever been used. I mean, Iâve heard about it for years, but itâs called unrealized capital gains. That means exactly what says, itâs theyâre unrealized. So you canât tax them, which will annihilate the stock market and wipe out the savings of millions and millions of seniors and retirees and middle class families will be devastated. Kamala Harris is a tax queen. Sheâs known as the tax queen. She loves taxing people. This is the only election Iâve ever seen where somebody brags about weâre going to raise your taxes. You know, I’ve grown up watching politics. Iâve always liked politics. Iâve been on the other side writing contribution checks, but Iâve watched and Iâve never heard anything like a politician says, âWe will cut your taxes.â This is constantly, even if they donât do it, by the way. A lot of times they donât. âWe will cut your taxes. It is our goal to cut your taxes. Weâre going to cut.â Right? Mike? Every politician. Have you ever seen one that doesnât do that? I have all these great people here. Great congressmen. Great congressmen, warriors. David. David, are you going to ever say we will raise your taxes? No, I donât think so. No, Iâve never seen it. This is the only group. âWe are going to raise your taxes. Weâre going to give you capital gains, confiscation. Weâre going to do things that nobody has ever had to do. Vote for Kamala.â Who the hell is going to vote? Open borders, tax increases, regulations at a level that no business will be able to hire you. Kamala is coming for your money. Sheâs coming for your pension. Sheâs coming for your savings. And unless you defeat her in November, this countryâs going to go to hell. As president, I will keep Kamalaâs greedy hands out of your pockets, and I will deliver gigantic tax cuts for working families of Pennsylvania. Thank you. And very importantly, this is so important because this is something, and she tried to copy me. That one didnât work out that she tried. A few months later, she said it. She got slaughtered. We will have no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no tax on social security benefits for seniors. No tax. No tax. And itâs going to lead to great things. A lot of people donât give. I know a lot about overtime. Iâd hated they give overtime. I hated it. Iâd get other people, I shouldnât say this, but Iâd get other people in. I wouldnât pay. I hate it. This is going to lead to a lot more. I think itâs going to be economically positive, but Iâm not even doing it for that reason. Iâm doing it because the no on overtime, itâs something so good, but no tax for the seniors. Do we have any seniors here? I hate to admit it. Iâm a senior. Theyâll say heâs got a conflict of interest. Heâs given this to himself. Watch. Iâll end up in front of a grand jury tomorrow, âDonald Trump has suggested no tax on social security benefits and heâs got a conflict of interest. Weâre putting him before a grand jury,â because Iâve seen more grand juries than Alphonse Capone and he averaged about killing one person a week. Alphonse, the meanest of them all. I know more about grand juries than Alphonse ever even thought about. My fatherâs looking down on my mother. Theyâre great people. They say, âCan you believe my son did this? Can you believe that my son would run for politics and be treated this way?â But you know what? And weâre doing great. We won the big case in Florida where weâre winning them all. Iâll tell you, what did you see? We won the big case. That was the big one. âTheyâre going to get him in Florida. Theyâre going to get him in Florida.â It was always⊠That seemed to be the documents case. I had every right to have them, called the Presidential Records Act. Thatâs what they passed it for. But he didnât have that act because he wasnât president and he got out. You know how he got out? And I donât want to talk about him too much because sheâs running. Maybe heâll go back. If she does really badly, theyâll probably put him back. Letâs reâ change. But think of this, they got him out. They said heâs guilty of what he did, but heâs grossly incompetent, which she never told us by the way. Thatâs putting our country at risk. She shouldâve told us, but heâs incompetent. So nobody like this should be able to go to court. So think of it. He canât go to court, but he can run the United States of America. Thereâs something wrong with that, right? Thereâs something wrong with that. But the big case was a documentâs case in Florida and we had a brilliant judge who was somebody that understood this whole thing. And I won the case in its entirety. And they go like⊠That was the big one. The big one was that, âWe are going to get him in Florida. Weâre going to get that documents case.â Now, these are very crooked people. These people have weaponized the justices and weâre not going to let it happen. Weâre not going to let it happen. Itâs a shame, but thatâs what itâs been. Just makes your job more difficult. But itâs all what we fight and the resolve that we have. Itâs the big reason why weâre leading in Pennsylvania. And the Emerson poll just came out. I just heard two seconds ago actually, weâre up in Pennsylvania, Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia, and theyâre the only ones they did. Even the New York Times, theyâre not big fans of mine. Iâm not big fans of them, the failing New York Times. The Sienna poll, weâre up in North Carolina by a lot, and weâre up in Georgia by four, and weâre up in Arizona by five. Thatâs in the New York Times. If they say that, David, that means weâre up by⊠He goes, âUncle Sam said triple.â I think youâre right. Uncle Sam, please stand up. Look at this guy. Thank you. And by the way, he doesnât work for me. He goes to a lot of these. They say itâs the greatest show on earth. It is pretty great, isnât it though, isnât it? The people make it great. Itâs the greatest show on Earth. But Uncle Sam, I donât know who he is, but I shook his hand the other day at the Nassau Coliseum when we had our big one, but I shook his hand. Heâs got the strongest hands. He almost broke⊠I couldnât believe it. I said, âUncle Sam has strong hands.â David, I was complaining the whole night. I said, âIâm never shaking that guyâs hand again.â Have you known that? You have strong hands. He said, âThank you, sir, very much,â and I felt that cracking feeling, right? No, youâre a strong guy, right? Strong hands. What did you do for a living? Okay, thatâs⊠A roofer, good. I can see it. Good. Iâll bet youâre a good one too. Thank you. Thank you, Uncle Sam. When she gets a little⊠She doesnât get a crowd, but when she gets a little crowd, they have buses coming in. So we take pictures of the buses. We give them to the fake news. They never report it. The bus people⊠And then they only show the first three or four rows. But we donât, like Uncle Sam, I mean, I donât pay anybody to come. We donât do any of that stuff. We have the most incredible group of people all over the country. I mean, if you were up in Wisconsin, if you were up in Wisconsin, you wouldâve seen something that actually was incredible. But weâre winning in Pennsylvania and the main thing that we have to do is we have to get out the vote. We have to get out the vote because if we lose this election, we are going to have a problem with this country, the likes of which I think no country has ever faced before. Here in Pennsylvania, you also need to vote for your next senator, and heâs a great guy. Iâve known him for a long time. He is a winner in the military. Heâs a winner in life. Heâs got a fantastic wife and family, and Iâm telling you, heâs a warrior. He was a warrior in the military. He then goes into private practice and he made a lot of money. He ran one of the biggest firms and did really great, respected so much beyond this, and he just wanted to do something I would say for the country and for Pennsylvania because Pennsylvania to the country, but he loves his country, loves the Commonwealth. And Dave McCormick, just come up for a second would you, Dave? Come on up. Itâs so great to have you. You go and do it. Thank you. Great, Dave. Thatâs great, David. So get out. Dave McCormick, great guy. You got to get him in. Heâll be a tremendous asset, tremendous help to you and to everybody. Weâre also pleased to be joined by a couple of real warriors, Mike Kelly, who I mentioned before. Mike, please stand up, congressman. This guy, heâs a great guy. Heâs been my friend for a long time. I wonât say how long because I donât want to have them think weâre a little old because weâre not old. Where it counts, weâre not old. But Iâll tell you, Mike is a tremendous guy, and he is been that for a long time. And he loves your commonwealth and he loves it a lot, and he loves our country. So thank you, Mike, for being here. Appreciate it. And another long time friend, Nick Langworthy, who is a congressman, doing really well. Iâve known him for⊠He was the leader of the party. He was a leader of everything heâs done, and youâre doing a great job. Thank you very much, Nick. Thank you. And a very popular mayor of Slippery Rock, JD Longo. Thank you, JD. Thank you very much. Good job. Good job. And all the other people. We have so many people here. We wonât do all, and I apologize, but we got to get back to it and then weâll get the hell out of here. You go home, watch a football game or something, right? Lyinâ Kamala Harris is the worst vice president acknowledged to be in history. Everyone thought she wouldnât get it, but they wanted to be politically correct, so she gave it to her. And here are the facts. She wants open borders. She costs the typical family $29,000. Think of that. Because of her inflation policy, itâs going to cost a lot more than that very soon, is going up by a lot. She was an original creator of defund the police. Are there any police officers? She was for defund the police. Anybody that wants to defund the police for even one week is not worthy of being the President of the United States. And just to show you, go ahead, put up that video please. So weâre trying to show you, and weâre working hard because a lot of people donât know her. Sheâs a disaster. You canât have her. Kamala Harris vowed to abolish ICE and she supports free healthcare for illegal aliens. She wants mass amnesty and citizenship for everyone. All of these people, even if theyâre criminals, theyâre looking for amnesty and they want to become citizens of our country. Those countries throw them all out. She says, âWe must not utter the words illegal alien, radical Islamic terrorists.â Remember I used to use that word all the time because we had a problem. We didnât have one terror attack during my four years because they knew they couldnât do it. But maybe worst of all, she lost more than ⊠This is not even possible to believe, 325,000 migrant children are missing, many of whom have been trafficked and raped. As California Attorney General, she lost them all, and she redefined child sex trafficking, assault with a deadly weapon and rape of an unconscious person as totally nonviolent crimes. No, this is a radical left lunatic weâre dealing with. By the way, if she wins, itâs not going to be so pleasant for me, but I donât care. I really donât care. We have a job to do. You canât let her win. You canât, because theyâre unpleasant. Theyâre unpleasant anyway. Theyâre crooked people. Theyâre crooked people. She praised the idea of a 70 to 80% tax rate up. Thatâs great. Thank you. Thank you very much. They have the best seat in the house actually. They only see the back, but all those cameras are on them. And every once in a while, a star emerges. How about the stars that emerged in Butler? Those people behind me, so many stars emerged. They were behind me and they didnât run. They werenât running, right? Mike is doing a fantastic job, by the way on that. Thank you, Mike Kelly. What a fantastic job heâs doing. He gets it. But you know, amazing. Just for a second. So they have these crowd control experts and they were explaining, when one bullet is fired, big stadiums will run out there. They call it a stampede. And many people oftentimes are killed. Many bullets were fired. They were going over my head. We lost Corey, the great firefighter, one great guy. And two other people were supposed to die, but the doctors up there were phenomenal and they saved their lives. We worked with them. But what happened was incredible. But the guy comes in, he says, âIâve never seen anything like this. All those bullets were flying.â And you didnât see the crowd out here. It was massive. It was, I think as big as crowd as youâll ever see. And by the way, weâre going back to Butler. Weâre going to be there. Weâre going back. Thatâs a big deal. We have a lot of people coming, and I really believe that will be the safest place on earth. And also, I think Iâll start the speech by saying, âAs I was saying.â But the crowd control expert said, âIâve never seen âŠâ They couldnât see the people here because the camera was here, and we had many cameras and it was amazing. The whole thing was horrible. But they had the people in the back. Nobody ran. Not one. You probably had like 150 people back there. The big crowd was here, but those people were locked on television because thatâs the way the cameras are facing. The one guy behind me, right? Did you see him? Heâs up. He was looking to fight. His name is Tom. His name is Tom, and I got to meet him. But he was a brave guy. And is he here? He was brave. Thatâs not the one I was talking about, by the way. Itâs not the one I was ⊠But he was a brave guy too. But everybody up there, they were amazing. They were amazing. They did. They had my back. They saw that we were in trouble. Something bad happened. And normally everybody would flee. Nobody, not one male, female, nobody. You could see the anger on their face. They didnât know exactly ⊠They just knew that your president was in big trouble because they saw that happening and they didnât flee. And can I tell you, these people didnât flee. There were so many people. Tens of thousands of people, they didnât flee. They stood, they watched and they wanted to know what could they do to help. The people in the front row. Some of the front row Joes were there. You were there. And it was amazing. You stood, I watched you. You didnât move. I call him Mr. Wall because you canât go wrong. But Mr. Wall stood there. He didnât move, and then she was like a piece of ⊠And bullets are flying all over the place. And it was an amazing thing to see, frankly. It was real bravery. The crowd control person, a real pro. He said, heâs never said anything like it. And what they did, a lot of them ⊠The one guy, he just wants to find out. The bullets are going back and forth, a lot of shots. And it was amazing. So weâre going to go back to Butler next week, next week. Good. Going to be a lot of people. And I want to thank the town, they were great. They want to do it. Itâs become a big tourist site. Can you believe this? Itâs become a tremendous ⊠Cars are riding by, theyâre taking pictures. Itâs become an amazing tourist site. But weâre going to be back there and weâre going to celebrate Cory, the firefighter who died, and really the two men that were so badly hurt and theyâre better. Those doctors were amazing. The doctors actually saved the two guys. Theyâre great guys. Big Trumpers, and Cory was a big Trumper. He just wanted to make America great again. But the two gentlemen, I said, âHow many people are going to âŠâ Because it was wall-to-wall people. So when you hear the bullets, you know theyâre not landing on the ground. There was no ground to land on. There was only people, and they said, âThree are probably dead, sir.â And two of them were very badly hurt. They were brought to the hospital, and these doctors were unbelievable, the job they did. And so we appreciate the doctors and weâll celebrate all three. And Cory in particular, weâre going to celebrate. The other two are making a lot of progress. Theyâre going to be in good shape very shortly. And by the way, I want to thank while heâs here, Mike Kelly. Youâre the head of the commission and nobodyâs going to fool him. Thereâs not going to be any fooling around, right Mike? But Mike Kelly is the head of the commission and heâs the perfect guy to have. And Iâve been watching, itâs been amazing whatâs happening. And very bipartisan, even the Democrats who are agreeing, âYou canât let things like this happen.â And Joe Biden ought to get up and say, âYou are threatening a former president and a candidate. And if you do anything to him âŠâ Itâs okay. Look me, itâs a very dangerous business. But Biden ought to say, âYou do anything to him, weâre going to blow you off the face of the earth.â And then weâre not going to have any problems. Right? But he canât say that. Other presidents would say that. He just canât probably get the words out. But Iâll tell you what, if it were reversed, if I were president and somebody was threatening a president, even I didnât like that person and he was from the opposite party, I would tell the threatening country, âYou do anything to him, weâre going to blow you off the face of the earth.â And nothingâs going to happen. But we havenât had that happen, have we, Mike? We havenât had that happen. So it makes life a little bit more dangerous, but thatâs okay. We know what we got into. Kamala pledged to abolish private healthcare and force everyone onto socialist government-run healthcare with high taxes and deadly wait times. Weâve got to wait six, seven months sometimes. And she even endorsed free sex changes for illegal aliens and detention at taxpayer expense. Thatâs why five weeks from now, we are going to tell her, âKamala, youâve done a horrible job as vice president. You are the worst borders czar in the history of the world, not just our country. We have to make a change. Kamala, you are horrible. Kamala, youâre fired. Youâre fired. Get out of here. Get out of here, Kamala. Go back to San Francisco Kamala, which by the way you destroyed.â From the moment we take back the White House from Kamala Harris and sleepy Joe, I believe weâre going to have the four greatest years in the history of our country. Weâre going to put our country back together. Itâs going to go fast. Starting on day one, I will seal the border and stop the invasion of migrants into our country, very dangerous migrants. We will carry out the largest deportation operation of criminals in American history. People are being made to pay 25%. Temporary ban. We will become energy independent. We were energy independent four years ago. We will become again ⊠First time ever we were energy independent. Weâre going to become energy dominant, but now we will be. We will energy dominant like no other country has ever been before. Much bigger than Saudi Arabia, much bigger than Russia. We were in third and even fourth place when I took over. When I left, we were in first place ahead of them by a lot, and then bad things started to happen. We will open ANWR again. I got it done. Ronald Reagan couldnât get it done. Nobody could get it done. Itâs probably the largest site in the world. Could be bigger than Saudi Arabia. And we will tap the liquid gold thatâs under our feet and we will drill, baby, drill. We will stop outsourcing and turn the United States into a manufacturing superpower, which we were in the process of doing, and it wonât even be hard. Here is the deal that I will be offering to every major company and manufacturer on earth: we will cut your taxes from 21% down to 15% and give you every possible advantage, but only if you make your product here in America and hire American workers for the job. And if youâre a foreign country and you donât make your product here, then you will have to pay a tariff, a fairly substantial one, which will go into our treasury, will reduce taxes. But if you send your product into the United States, that will happen. On the other hand, if you want to build your factory in the United States, there will be no taxes, there will be no tariffs, there will be nothing to pay. So if you build your factory or your plant in the United States, there will be no tariff, and therefore they will all be coming and theyâll be building and you will be getting so many job offers and a lot of itâs going to take place right here in Pennsylvania. We will pass the Trump Reciprocal Trade Act, so that if China or any other country charges us a 100 or a 200% tariff, then we will charge them a reciprocal tariff or tax of 100 or 200% and we will do it immediately. We were in the process of getting that done and then bad things happened with a thing called an election. I will not let Mexico, which has taken a lot of your business now, or China or any other country, sell cars into the United States to the detriment of our autoworkers because with what theyâre doing with electric car mandates and everything else , we wonât have any autoworkers. The autoworkers are going to vote overwhelmingly for me. They have a stupid person in charge of the union named Shawn Fain. The teamsters have a brilliant person, but the autoworkers have a stupid Heâs agreed and wants them to build all electric cars. If you do that, there will be no more auto jobs. Theyâll all be made in China and other places. And I will not allow US Steel to be sold to Japan. Weâre going to fight that. Right, Mike? And I will always protect social security and Medicare with no cuts. Weâre not going to be raising ages, and for four years I didnât. I will stop the drugs and fentanyl pouring in and killing our kids and killing our families. We will crush violent crime and protect all law enforcement, including Border Patrol, ICE sheriffs, and Secret Service. We will terminate the green new scam and spend the trillions of unspent dollars on roads, bridges, real infrastructure and paying down debt, not fake infrastructure thatâs caused massive inflation with no benefit at all. I will settle the war on Ukraine and I will end the chaos in the Middle East and I will prevent World War III. Thank you. Thank you, folks. I appreciate it. I got a good lively group back there, right? Theyâre great. They love our country. They love our country. But we will have, again, peace through strength. We had no wars for four years. We had no wars, other than ISIS, which I inherited, and we ended ISIS in four weeks. That was the end of ISIS. We ended 100% of the ISIS caliphate. We have a great military, but not the guys that you see on television that have no clue whatâs going on. But the real military is great, and they showed me that. They really showed me that. It was supposed to take five years, we did it in four weeks. Thereâs a man. Thank you very much. Look at that guy. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. And I will support universal school choice, and I believe the Lifeline Scholarship Bill would be a great start for those students trapped in the worst-performing schools in Pennsylvania. A lot of people want to see that happen. I understand it, right? You know that? Oh, you do know that. Good. It would provide financial assistance to empower parents to take their children out of a failing school and send them to a public, private, religious or charter school thatâs really right for them. School choice is a very big deal. A lot of people donât know that, but itâs a big deal. Itâll be great. Iâm going to take the Department of Education, close it in Washington, let the states run their own education. Very important, because we spend more money per pupil than any other nation in the world by far, and yet weâre ranked at the bottom of every list. So you know the expression, âwhat the hell do you have to lose?â I did that with our great ⊠Because theyâve been so supportive. Iâve gone up like a rocket ship. But theyâre being hurt very badly by the people pouring into our country, our African-American population. I said, âWell, youâre last on crime. Youâre being devastated with inflation more than anybody else. You have the smallest percentage of homeownership.â And I went through a list of 12 things. This was a long time ago, 2015 when I was running, even before. And I was with a group and I wasnât doing particularly well with them, and I am going through this whole list of things. âYouâre last in ownership, youâre last in cash and having money in the bank.â Last in all these different categories. And I said, âVote for me. What the hell do you have to lose?â Remember that? âWhat the hell do you have to lose?â And my people didnât like it. They said backstage, âOh sir, that was not nice.â I said, âIt is nice.â Anyway, I didnât know. I figured maybe I shouldnât have said it. The following day, I went up 12 points. And today weâre the highest weâve ever been with the African-American population. We did things that were really incredible for them and with them. Criminal justice reform, right? Took care of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities. I got them long-term financing. They were great. We did a lot. And weâre doing great with the Black population. Hispanic population is like a rocket ship for us, but we have to protect it because the people coming through Kamala, theyâre coming through the border and theyâre taking your jobs. Your job numbers are going way up in terms of your unemployment, way up. I donât know if anybodyâs seen, Black unemployment that last few months, these people are coming in illegally and theyâre taking your jobs, Hispanic also. And next will be unions. Theyâre going to have a big effect on the unions. So you guys better get together and vote for Trump. Iâll tell you, itâs going to be a mess. We will rebuild our cities, including Washington DC, making them safe and clean and beautiful again, because our cities are in trouble and our capital is like a murdering pit. Weâre going to get that cleaned up and weâre going to make it safe and beautiful and people are going to be proud to go back to our capital without being killed. And we will keep the US dollar as the worldâs reserve currency because right now, David, itâs under siege, and you know we canât lose that. Losing that would be like losing a war, and then we would in fact be a Third World country. Weâll lose the reserve. But this is how we will end the era of inflation, mayhem, misery. Under Kamala and Crooked Joe, it was just misery. What a miserable few years. Itâs just been horrible. And people all over the world, especially the leaders, are laughing at how stupidly our country is run. Remember, weâre the party of common sense. And 95% of it is, âWeâre conservative,â and all that, but whether youâre conservative, liberal, weâre the party of common sense. So important. But weâre going to unleash safety, prosperity, and peace for Americans of every race, religion, color, and creed. Together we will deliver low taxes, low regulation, low energy costs, low interest rates, low inflation so that everyone can afford things like groceries, a car and a home, and have money left over. We will stop the invasion, end migrant crime, strengthen our military, build a missile defense shield over our country, keep Critical Race Theory and transgender insanity out of our schools, And we will keep men out of womenâs sports. We will defend the Second Amendment, protect religious liberty, restore free speech, and we will secure our elections once and for all. Everyone will prosper, every family will thrive, and every day will be filled with opportunity and hope. But for that to happen, we must defeat lying Kamala Harris, and we must stop her country destroying liberal agenda. She is a radical left communist and we cannot have her be the president of our country. We never want that ideology anywhere around because it doesnât work and itâs been proven 100 times. Remember, early voting is beginning right now. Get going, right now. So you must get out and vote. We want a landslide thatâs too big to rig. Weâre going to have too big to rig. And on November 5th, we will save our economy, we will rescue our middle class, we will reclaim our sovereignty and restore our borders. We will always put America first and we will take back our country that we love so much. Together we will make America powerful again. We will make America wealthy again, healthy again, strong again, proud again, safe again, free again, and we will make America great again. Thank you. God bless you, everybody God bless you. Thank you, Pennsylvania. Have a good time.
