BOOM!
I'll be an American
where at least I know
I'm free And
I won't forget the
men who died Who gave
that life to me and
I glad
Cause there ain't no
From the lakes of Minnesota,
to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of
Texas, from sea
to shining sea,
from Detroit down to Houston,
and New York to L.A.,
where there's pride in every
American heart, and it's
time we stand and say...
Where at least I know
I'm free
Thank you very much everybody.
I just did an interview in the most
beautiful barn I've ever seen.
Ken, it was a beauty, but it was
raining.
And it was with
NBC fake news.
And because it was rain, I
got a little bit angry with them.
I was not happy with them, but
we had a good time.
I just want to thank everybody for
being here. We love the farmers.
We love everything about your state.
And, you know, we won your state by
a lot.
And we've had great success here in
Wisconsin, and we brought a lot
of business to Wisconsin.
We recommend it.
I love the place.
And hopefully, you're going to be
voting Republican because, frankly,
Republican is — I call it the sane
way to go.
It's the sane, because
what I'm seeing from the Democrats,
they're going have some problems.
And, by the way, if they don't, if
they win, this country is finished.
We're in trouble.
So — I hate to say
that you have no choice, but I don't
think you have much of a choice.
These are some very sick puppies
that I'm looking at that are running
for office and on the other side.
I call them the Democrats, D-U-M.
You take out the B, a lot of people
don't know dumb as a B, you take out
a B.
And you change the E, you put the
U, and you have a Democrat.
But their policy is
just outstandingly bad,
and it's really bad for the farmer.
Because we were having record stuff,
and then we had to put out a fire.
We had to extinguish a
nuclear weapon, a capable nuclear.
This was going to be a very
capable country that was
going to have a massive nuclear
presence, and we weren't going to
let that happen.
Nobody wanted that to happen.
And we've largely finished that,
you'll see.
And one way or the other, it's
finished. One way, one
way of the other it's finish.
It's either finished with a piece of
paper or finished in a more
difficult way, although you could
say a much easier way.
As you know, with Iran, they have no
Navy, 159
ships in four days.
Even Ken is impressed by that.
Four days, 15 9 ships
at the bottom of the sea.
Not that we like that, but that's
the way it is.
The blockade is unbelievable.
There's never been a blockade like
that. The Navy is — we have the
greatest military anywhere in the
world. There's ever been a military
like it.
And if you remember when all
the heat I was taking from the
Democrats will be nice.
I'll use Democrats at least half the
time. But if you remembered
the heat that I had to take
to get help for
the farmer and also to get
helped for the military, because
they don't want anything to do with
the military. The farmer, for
the most part, they don't want
anything do with anything good.
And that's why the midterms are
coming up. And I hope you people
are really spiritized because
We're at a point, we're going to
come out of Iran very quickly,
and it's going to be very strong,
one way or the other.
Whether it's a piece of paper or the
very tough way, okay?
The very tough ways may be the
easier way.
But we're gonna come out and your
fertilizer prices are gonna go way
down, just like they were four
months ago.
Your fertilizer's down, your
energy's down.
Your oil, your gas is
all coming way down.
And frankly, I thought it would go
much higher than it did.
I thought frankly that.
A gasoline would be much higher than
it was. I was in Iowa, another
place I like a lot.
And it was just before we started
the excursion to Iran.
And we passed gas stations.
It was $1.85 a
gallon. And we're going to get them
down to those numbers again very
quickly.
But-
But as they say in the
farming business, we had to take
care of business. Look at this guy
over here. I don't know who the hell
he is, but he is one hell of a
specimen.
This guy is one
of a physical specimen.
I thought I was big until I met you,
Joe, you know, you're fantastic.
It's what I like.
Anyway, I just want to let you
all know that I'm thrilled to be
here at Custer Farms and- Ken
and his family, they're amazing.
I took pictures with them backstage
and got to know them a little bit.
They're really amazing people.
They built this country.
You all built this county.
Not the complainers, not the wise
guys. You all build this country,
and I just want to-
And I just want to just let you know
that Wisconsin for me has been just
a great place, you know, it's known
as difficult.
It's difficult, you got to be good
to win.
But we won here, as you know we won
it a lot.
And we're trying to figure out who
the few people that voted against us
are, we're looking for them right
now.
But today we're celebrating the
historic strides for some of the
most loyal, hardworking
patriots anywhere in the nation and
They're really called our American
farmers, and we're with you 1,000%,
or I wouldn't be here with
you.
Like you wouldn't believe, and
you're going to see some very good
things happen over the next 90
day period.
I told Ken, 90 days,
watch what happens, you're gonna be
better, better than you were four
months ago.
And before we begin, I'm delighted
to report that for the third month
in a row, the jobs numbers,
I guess you saw them this morning.
They just got released and they
smashed all expectations by-
Actually, three times with.
And this is during a military
conflict. I call it that because
it's really not that much of
a war, but it's a military
conflict. It's a practice,
but this is 172,000
jobs were created in May.
That's about four times higher than
anticipated, and experts
predicted 30,000 jobs.
These are the strongest job
numbers of the entire administration
so far, and that's during this
conflict on top of it.
So it's great.
And, you know, we have a thing.
We have a problem in this country
because it used to be if you're
I'm a little older than a couple of
you, but I don't feel old.
I feel the same as they did 50 years
ago. It's crazy, Mr. Senator.
We got a great senator right here,
Ron, but I do
feel the saying, but but
in the old days, you know, if you
had good job numbers like great
job numbers, like they announced
today, the stock market goes
up today.
Everything is crazy.
The whole world is crazy So when you
have great job numbers, the stock
market goes down, because they
think interest rates will go up.
And when interest rates go up, they
stop inflation.
Well, you know what else stops
inflation?
Growth actually stops inflation.
And they ought to go back to the old
system. When we have good numbers,
the markets ought to to go up not go
down and it would be, that's the way
you build greatness.
You build greatness that way.
So I think it's going to, we have a
great gentleman coming in, Kevin
Warsh, he's going do a fantastic
job.
At the Fed, we're getting rid of too
late.
But we have, Kevin
is one of the greats, so you're
gonna see, but you're going to see,
beyond anything, you're gong to see
numbers coming in over the next more
than two and a half, we have two and
half years plus.
Can you believe how time flies,
right? And can you believe the
work we've done?
You know, it's sad because
you have speech writers and
you have advisors and you all these
people and generally you don't like
listening to any of them Because if
you do, you're in trouble.
But I said, you know, I want to
write about the border, and
I want talk about the boarder.
Because when I came here, we had the
most unsafe, we have the
worst boarder maybe anywhere in the
world.
There was no boarder, 25 million
people came in, drug dealers came
in.
People from mental institutions
came in and murderers came in 11,888
murders. Most of whom, over
50% of whom killed,
can you believe this, more than one
person. One killed seven
people. We allowed them into our
country. We've got them largely.
They're going out, and they're going
out fast.
We have to fight crooked judges,
crooked administrations, crooked
politicians, but they're going
out fast, but we have
the safest border in our
history for the last 12
months.
And this is a hard number to
believe, but I don't give it.
It's a number that's out there.
You've heard it.
Zero people have come
into our country.
Through our southern border,
zero.
That's a little hard to do, isn't
it?
It's a little hard.
If they said like 20 people, I would
have been, you know, 25 million
came in through sleepy Joe Biden.
So we had zero people.
And these are done by largely sort
of a radical leading, leading
left people, the reports, but
it is what it is.
And the good thing is they don't try
to come in. It makes it a lot easier
because they know it's going to be
very hard to come in now.
We take people in, but they have to
come in legally. We want people to
come into, but after coming legally.
But I say, let's talk about the
border, sir.
Nobody cares about the border.
I said, I won the election on the
border, let's talk about the- Sir,
I'm telling you, nobody cares,
Ron. Nobody cares the border
you fix the border I want to
brag about it.
Sir, they want to hear about
other things like fertilizer.
And we'll take care of fertilizer
too. You know, when I also came in,
eggs were like the
highest. And remember this,
I inherited all these high prices.
They came in and
they said, affordability.
They made up the word, because
that's the only thing they're good
at, although I'm good at making up
words. They go,
affordability.
I was there one day, and
I said to our great Secretary of
Agriculture, what's with the egg
prices? So on my second day,
I gave a news conference, which was
more news conferences that
Biden gave in like six months.
But in my, he almost,
he didn't do it.
Yeah.
Sleepy Joe was not heavy into news
conferences, all right?
He'd take one question, he'd go, oh,
let's see.
Let's see,
Jim Smith from
NBC.
I don't do that, they just start
screaming at me.
But, so I had a news conference
on my second day, and they
said, what about eggs?
What about eggs, tell me about eggs.
I said, What's the story with eggs?
Give me a little hand, what's with
eggs. They said,What's happening
with eggs! Eggs.
And I was told, you know, we have
the great Easter egg hunt at
the White House. And I was called to
order plastic eggs.
I said, I'm not ordering plastic
eggs, and I called this young lady
right over here, Brooke Rollins,
Secretary of Agriculture, and said,
Brooke, get the egg prices
down, please.
And she got them down.
And by the way, speaking of Tom
Tiffany, he's one of the best
congressmen in
our country.
And I was there, I don't know,
seven, eight years ago, right at the
beginning, I endorsed this guy.
I didn't know. I had no idea, but I
liked his last name.
You know why?
Because I bought the air rights many
years ago off Tiffany, and I made a
lot of money.
So I saw Tom Tiffany,
And I backed him, and he went like a
rocket ship, and he won, and you've
kept winning, and now he's running
for a thing called governor, and
you have-
And you have, I don't want to
knock him because he's finished
after this, but you have a very
sleepy governor too, and you
got a very sleeping.
But I can tell you, Tom Tiffany is
running for governor.
He's a winner, and he's going to do
a great job, okay?
Good luck, guys.
So, in a single month,
we added 7,000 new manufacturing
jobs and 17,000 construction
jobs, and we're building more
plants than at any time in the
history of our country.
We have $18 trillion coming
into the United States.
As an example, the previous
administration, in four
years, think of this,
had much less than
$1 trillion come in.
We have 18 trillion
dollars from countries and people
all over the world.
In 11 months, not even in one year.
So that's some difference.
And I think that's probably why
people are shocked to see the job
numbers, because the construction
jobs are through the roof.
But when these plants, car plants
and AI plants and all the different
plants, when they open up,
we're leading China by a lot.
I just got back from China.
I was with President Xi, who I
respect.
But we're leaving China by lot in
the AI race, a very important race.
And we're eating everybody now when
it comes to cars.
They're coming in from Germany.
They're come in from Japan.
They're coming in from Canada.
Canada treats you guys rough, you
know? Canada, they put on big
tariffs.
We didn't meet them with tariffs.
I took care of them on first term
really strongly, and I am now,
but Canada's been very rough.
You find them rough to deal with?
Yes, you're pretty rough to dealing
with. He's more of a diplomat than
me.
And we are doing well.
The previous two months, we were
revised upward by nearly 100,000
jobs. They put the numbers too low.
So actually, we had 100,000
more jobs than they reported.
They were obviously Democrats,
right? Wages for workers
continued to rise.
And for manufacturing workers, wages
are up more than 8%
since I took office, which is
close to a record.
Think of that.
A blue collar is doing better than
it's ever done before.
And you farmers, if you
remember, we had a bad patch
in my first term where China
and other countries were sort of
boycotting the United States.
And I met with
the farmers, and I said, I'm going
to get you something for it because
you've been treated very badly.
And I got $28
billion for the farmers in
the first term, remember?
I just asked Ken whether or not he
got it. He said I did.
And we're looking at something also
right now, we're look at something
to take the place of what's
happened, because it's artificial.
What happened to you is artificial
with the energy and with the
fertilizer.
So we're looked at something.
But in the first term,
I got the farmers.
$28 billion, and I'll never forget,
I was in the White House, I had
about 35 farmers along this big,
beautiful table, not as beautiful
as this table, okay,
but this gorgeous, beautiful White
House table, all the best.
And I said, I'm going
to get you a subsidy.
And they looked at me, and he just
said the same thing.
One of them looked at and stood up
and said, sir, we don't want
subsidy, we just want an even
playing field. I said, nobody ever
said that to me, all they want is
money.
Do you understand that?
First time.
Nobody ever said that.
I've had so many meetings with
different groups, different
industries.
If I said, I'm going to get you $28
billion, they say, oh, get it
as fair.
They actually said, we don't want
it. Now, I got it for you anyway.
I didn't notice anybody turning it
down, but I got.
But they said something that no
other group said, Ron.
They said, We don't a subsidy.
We just want just
an even playing field, fair trade.
They just wanted to be treated
fairly. And nobody else has
said. That, but the farmers.
So we love you. We love you guys.
So we're building more factories now
than at any time.
And we've also had huge
drops.
And and and I'll tell you, this is
something that's amazing.
African American unemployment is
now doing better than it's
ever done.
And I don't know where that
stat came from, but I'll take it.
I don't know where the hell that
stat kept, but we'll take and
a short time ago, we were a dead
country. We're dead as a door now.
If you look, go back two years,
we were a laughing stock all over
the world. We had a president that
couldn't walk up a flight of stairs.
He couldn't down a flight stairs,
you know, and we
had everybody, we're a laughing
stock all of the world, and
I was with the king of Saudi Arabia
because I wanted him to invest
trillions of dollars into our
country. Look at that whole
situation now too, it's very
interesting, but he was
good and He said to me,
you know, President, it's amazing.
A year ago, year and a half ago, we
thought you were a dead country,
and now you're the hottest country
anywhere in the world that we are.
We're the strongest, we're the
hottest, and we're the most
respected country anywhere in the
So as I said, the stock market
just hit 73 all-time
records in a short period of time.
We've had 73 all time
record highs.
And your 401Ks, who has a
401K here?
Let me just say, a lot.
Your 401K's, as you know, just
hit a record high, so that's
everybody.
And we're just off a
very big success in Washington,
DC. We had,
it doesn't sound like much.
Washington, D.C.
Was not properly managed or kept.
We had 22 fountains.
None of them worked for the last
50 years.
None of the.
They were graffiti strewn.
I did it the inexpensive way.
Why should we have a screen?
Everybody here has good vision.
I want to show you something.
Look at this.
I'm going to show the cheap way,
okay?
We don't want to bring screens.
It costs too much money.
Isn't it?
That's before and after.
Look at that.
Look at it. Can everybody see that?
That's Before.
That's our nation's capital.
That's why, look at this graffiti
all over it, filthy, disgusting
stone. The stone was all horrible.
And look over there, that's before
and after.
Then we had the reflecting pond,
2,500 feet massive,
longer than a building.
We have a stat here that's sort of
great. Can you guys see this okay?
Because I'm too cheap to put up like
a projector.
Look, so that's
the pond.
If we're standing up.
Here's your Sears Tower,
Empire State Building, World Trade
Center. Look, it's double
and triple the size in terms of
area.
So it would have cost $400
million, Ron,
to fix.
It would have taken four years.
And they were getting ready.
Doug Burgum has done an amazing job.
And I said, rather than doing that,
they were going to put stone down,
big stone, granite, wonderful.
But it all leaks because you have
joints. So, being a very good
builder.
I said, you know what, I
built a lot of swimming pools, many,
many swimming pools.
Every time I do a development, I do
swimming pools I know more about
swimming pools is that why
can't we put the
wonderful material which is thick,
pasty, beautiful like rubber,
but industrial strength.
Why can't use it?
And let's pick the color blue from
the American flag, which is what we
did.
And that is the most beautiful
thing that you've ever seen.
And look at that, I mean, look at
it. It just opened yesterday,
we just opened it.
So that was going to take four
years, 400
million.
It took really about a month,
okay? It was going, can you imagine
Washington between Lincoln?
Think of Washington, DC between
the Lincoln Memorial
and the Washington.
Just think about this.
You know that beautiful spire?
In honor of the great George
Washington and the beautiful
Lincoln Memorial.
So between there, thousands of
feet long, it was built in
1922, and to be honest,
it never really worked.
It leaked like a sieve, because it
was stone and concrete.
So I took over the project.
Now, Barack Hussein Obama, have you
heard of him? Barack Hussein.
Barack Hussein Obama
spent, and Joe Biden,
Sleepy Joe, they spent a
total of about $150 million
trying to fix it.
They never got it opened, it never
worked. It was terrible, disgusting,
it was garbage-ridden.
And I said to my pool guy, I said,
take a look at it.
And he said, well, sir,
we can do it.
We'll get industrial strength.
And I used some guys, not him, I
used them guys, but he gave me some
good ideas because he's a pro.
You know, they got very upset when I
sent my pool person.
I said, who else am I going to send?
So I sent them over,
and we sprayed it and put down
beautiful,
like a pool coating.
It'll last maybe 50 to 100
years.
So here's the thing.
400 million versus,
like, 10 million.
Four years, four
years versus a
month.
Can you imagine?
Can you image?
And the difference is,
look, here's your Lincoln Memorial.
You have the Washington Monument
and the Lincoln Memorial, look at
that. Beautiful, look how that
reflects, it's like a mirror.
What beautiful clean water, they had
like garbage.
Barack Obama wanted to save money,
so he took the water out of the
Potomac.
That didn't work out too well.
A lot of things were coming out of
that river into this one.
It wasn't good, so we just
think of it.
So, like a month of
this work, we actually added to it,
we did the sidewalks.
Because once we did this, we had to
do the rest because it looks so
good. But think of it,
400 million versus like 10 million
bucks for a better job.
Four years versus a
month for a a better a
job. We have many things like that.
I talk about that all the time.
We do a lot of things like.
So we're very proud of Washington.
We had 22 fountains that
didn't work.
All of the fountains, not one
fountain in Washington worked.
Out of the 22 fountain, they're all
looking beautiful, just like the one
I showed you.
And now they're clean,
they are beautiful, there's no
graffiti.
Washington DC is a safe city, it
was a very unsafe city a
year and a half ago.
And-
A very unsafe city.
Your child would go to see the
Jefferson Memorial, or the
Washington, or the Lincoln, or
any of them, and
would often time not come back.
It was a horrible place, it was
horrible what was happening.
And we put our great military in
there, and we did a job.
We removed 5,000 people that
were career criminals.
2% of the people, think
of this, 2% percent of
the people, did you know this, Ron,
create 91% of crime.
And I love that statistic, because
you can get rid of 2%.
And we took them out.
We brought them back to where they
came from.
Many of them came in through
Sleepy Joe's open border policy,
one of the craziest policies I've
ever heard.
So we saved a lot of money.
And you go to Washington, DC,
new grass.
People say they don't even recognize
it. We did that all in
a little bit more than a year.
And even I said it's amazing.
But maybe the biggest thing is
We don't have, it's considered now a
very, very safe city.
And you can go there and you're
going to be 100% perfect.
We had the restaurants were all
closing and now they're opening
up. They don't enough restaurants
anymore. It's like, it is a
beautiful thing to see.
Every day my administration is
fighting to protect and defend the
jobs and livelihood of our great
farmers.
I love our farmers, our growers,
agricultural producers, ranchers,
from coast to coast.
Under the last administration,
Biden and the radical left,
Democrats in Congress crushed
farmers with brutal restrictions,
crippled you with the worst
inflation.
So the Biden administration had
the worst inflation in the history
of our country.
They say 49 years, 48
years, but whether you
say 48 or forever,
I think it was forever.
We had the worse inflation we've
ever had and
think of that and fail.
To negotiate even a single new
trade deal for our farmers.
They didn't negotiate one new
trade for our farms.
I just made a great deal.
I came back from presidency and he's
buying billions and billions
of dollars worth of soybeans and
other things. And you're seeing that
starting to kick in.
Thank you.
So by contrast, in my first
year back in the Oval Office,
average farm incomes for
agricultural producers in our
country have skyrocketed
by more than 20%.
Now, it's been
over the last couple of months since
we went in for the military
operation.
You've seen fertilizer go up and
you've seen energy go up.
It's going to come down to where it
was or lower.
You'll be very happy.
Otherwise, Ken is going to call me,
he's going ball me out, and I'll
say, sorry Ken, I was only
kidding, right?
All right, he knows I'm going to do
it.
With Republicans in Congress,
like Tom Tiffany, like Derek Van
Orden, where is Derek?
Where is Derek, Derek?
This guy is, he fights
like hell.
He's in a little bit of a community
that tends to be on slightly
a little more than we want in
left, but he loves them all, and
he's very popular, and he is going
to win by a lot. You're doing well,
I understand you're really doing
well so far.
Thank you.
And he's a real fighter, and he's
great guy, all of
us, we've been friends right from
the beginning.
So we passed the largest tax cuts
in American history with a
great big beautiful bill.
We made the small business
tax deduction permanent,
benefiting 98% of the farmers
and ranchers.
We gave you 100% expensing
and bonus depreciation.
So when you buy a new tractor or
anything else you buy, you're
allowed to deduct it.
Do you buy any new tractors?
Got a lot of nice trackers, man.
Got a lot of tractors back there, by
the way, but so you can
deduct it, the full cost of
the tractors, one year, any
equipment, one-year, all.
You can deduct all in the first year
instead of over a period of many,
many years.
And we also saved the $2 million,
thank you very much.
That's a big deal, actually.
We also saved a $2,000,000 American
farms from, think of that,
from extinction by ending what we
did. Is we got rid of the
estate tax or the death tax.
So if you love your child.
If you love your child, if you
don't love your child, then don't
worry about it. It doesn't make any
difference. Does anybody not love
your child in the audience?
No, but if you have a farm like
this, someday it's going to come to
time, right?
And I met your boys, and he loves
his boys. I know that because he
started clapping for that last
statement about no death tax.
And he was clapping. He didn't clap
for anything else.
That means you love you boys.
So, boys, I just found out your
father loves you.
But think of it.
We were, and I was seeing this in my
first term, we did it my first time,
we did it now, we extended it out,
so you have no estate tax or no, we
call it the death tax on a farm or
small business.
Now, I saw it
myself.
You have a way of life that
sometimes you're land rich and
cash poor, sometimes you have lots
of different conditions, but.
People that are on farms love
being on farms.
You wouldn't trade my life, you
wouldn't want my life.
Believe me, you don't want it.
Your life is much better than my
life and I will tell you, your ear
wasn't a little pierced over here.
You didn't get pierced.
You have a nice, safe,
beautiful life. But I've seen it
with farmers, maybe more than any
industry.
People want to have their farm.
It's a way of life and they love
the life on the
farm and the
family would leave.
The father would die, the mother
would die. Leave it to the kids.
The kids would have a big estate tax
problem or a death tax problem.
They'd go to the bank.
They'd borrow a lot of money.
More money than they should have
borrowed. Couldn't make a deal.
And they'd end up losing the farm.
In many cases, I have to say,
they'd do terrible things.
They'd commit suicide.
They'd lose their farm.
They'd loose their way of life.
They couldn't pay the tax.
And I got rid of that tax.
I ended that tax, so I hope you're
happy. Thank
you.
And the Democrats fought me on that,
by the way. If they ever got in, I
think they'd end that.
But if something happens, if you
love your child, you want to leave
it. You have no estate tax,
no death tax to pay.
And every single Democrat in
Congress voted against these
critical measures.
They voted against the no tax on
tips, no tax social security,
no tax on overtime, they all voted
against all of this stuff, they
voted against a tax reduction.
They voted all of it.
And they voted against saving your
family farms from the death tax.
So just remember that when you go
into the polls because they'll
change it back immediately.
There's something wrong with these
people.
All of these things that we
have done, and Tom Tiffany, I have
to say, you were so helpful
and Derek, the job you've
done with me in helping
to get it passed.
And let me tell you, that man is a
senator. He loves the farmers and he
loves your state.
And he doesn't care about anything
else. He wants to make sure you get
treated fairly.
And there's no better, you
have no better advocate than
Ron, Ron Johnson.
So thank you, Mr. Senator.
Cheers.
And he'll be a hell of a governor.
I know the guy who'll drive you
crazy. He'll be calling me,
President, you got to send more
money to Wisconsin.
Leave me alone, all right?
He'll do well, too.
Thank you.
As president, I fought for the
American farmer like no one has ever
fought before. Nobody's, like I'm up
here today, I don't need this.
I got elected, I know that.
What the hell do I have to be here
for? I got it elected.
I'm here because I like the farmer.
I mean, when you think about it, I
guess there's a lot of truth to
that, right?
I could be home right now in the
beautiful White House enjoying
watching somebody else on television
talking.
On day one, I terminated the insane-
