Donald Trump: “We Must Choose to Believe in America”

Donald Trump speaks to the Republican National Convention at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio.

Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination for president at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. Trump said “we mist choose to believe in America,” vowing to “be your voice” champion. “I’m with you, the American people,” he said, a response to Hillary Clinton’s slogan “I’m With Her.”

“I humbly and gratefully accept your nomination for the presidency of the United States,” he said. “We will lead our country back to safety, prosperity and peace.”

The New York Republican lived up to his “billionaire working class” persona with a message about wages, trade and other economic issues. He vowed to be a their “voice” and said putting “American first will be our credo.”

Trump gave the single-most message inclusive in at least five Republican conventions. He championed the LBGTQ community, promised inner-city parents to save their children from failing inner cities and to be the champion of the “forgotten,” to including new immigrants negatively impacted by globalism.

“I pledge to never sign a trade agreement that hurts our workers or endangers our nation… Our plan will put America First,” he said. “The American people will come first once again.”

Here is a summary of his most memorable remarks:

“Any politician who does not address this danger is not fit to lead our country.”

“We will be a country of generosity and warmth — but we will also be a country of law and order.”

“I have a message for all of you: The crime and violence that afflicts our nation will soon — and I mean very soon — come to an end. Beginning on January 20 of 2017, safety will be restored.”

“We can not afford to be so politically correct anymore.”

“We will honor the American people with the truth and nothing else.”

“Our roads and bridges are falling apart.”

“We all remember the images of our sailors being forced to their knees by their Iranian captors.”

The Iran deal “gave us absolutely nothing.”

“The world is far less safe than when Obama made the decision to put Hillary Clinton in charge of foreign policy.”

Hillary Clinton’s “bad instincts” and her “bad judgements” “caused so many of the disasters unfolding today.”

“After 15 years of wars in the Middle East, after trillions of dollars spent, thousands of lives lost, the situation is worse than it has ever been before. This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton: Death, destruction, terrorism and weakness.”

“My plan will begin with safety at home.”

Hillary Clinton “will keep our rigged system in place.” She is the “puppet” of big donors, “and they pull the strings,” Trump says.

“I have no patience for injustice.”

“When I take the oath of office next year, I will restore law and order to our country. Believe me.”

“In this race for the White House, I am the law and order candidate.”

“We are going to defeat the barbarians of ISIS, and we’re going to defeat them fast.”

“As a Republican, it is so nice to hear you cheering for” LGBTQ people.

“I only want to admit individuals into our country who will support our values and love our people.”

“We are going to build a great border wall to stop illegal immigration.”

“The day I take the oath of office – Americans will finally wake up in a country where the laws of the United States are enforced.”

“I am not going to let companies move to other countries, firing their employees along the way, without consequence.”

Labels China “the greatest currency manipulators ever.”
