00:00Folks, the choice is clear. Donald Trump's vision of America is one of revenge and retribution.
00:07A defeated former president who sees the world from Mar-a-Lago and bows down to billionaires,
00:13who looks down on American union workers. It's not just he's not supportive, he looks down on us.
00:18No, I'm not joking. Think about it. Think about the guys you grew up with who you'd
00:23like to get into the corner and just give them a straight lift.
00:25I'm not suggesting we hit the president. But we all know those guys growing up.
00:33We all know guys like that growing up. My vision of America is one of hope
00:39and opportunity. The view from Scranton, working class Americans like you.
00:45Here's the future I see, and I mean this from the bottom of my heart. I've never been more
00:48optimistic about America's chances. Not because I'm president, because of the state of the moment.
00:54The world needs us. Look what I just signed. We just signed the bill to give support to Ukraine.
01:06We rebuilt NATO. We increased it.
01:10We built it.
01:20Like it or not, we're the leading country in the world. The rest of the world looks to us.
01:25I see an America where we defend democracy, not diminish it.
01:29I see an America where we protect freedoms, not take them away. I see an economy that grows from
01:36the middle out and the bottom up, where the wealthy pay their fair share, so we can have
01:40child care, paid leave, and so much more, and still reduce the federal deficit and increase
01:45economic growth. Folks, imagine what we can do next. Four more years.
01:53Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years.
02:03Are you ready? Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years.
02:09Are you ready to move forward? Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years.
02:14Well, thank you. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. Four more years.
02:19We're all ready.
02:23We're ready to move forward, not back. Are you ready to choose unity over division,
02:28dignity over hate, truth over lies? Are you ready to choose freedom for democracy?
02:36We can do this. I give you my word as a Biden. I've never been more optimistic about our future
02:41in my entire career. Just remember who we are, and I mean this. Think about it. We are the United
02:47States of America, and there's nothing beyond our capacity. Nothing, nothing, nothing,
02:52when we do it together. We've got to do it together.
03:04God bless you all. God bless you all, and may God protect our troops. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
