00:00We agree on keeping America strong.
00:08We agree on keeping America safe.
00:15And we agree that Democrats have moved so far to the left that they're putting our freedoms in danger.
00:25I'm here tonight because we have a country to save.
00:33And a unified Republican Party is essential for saving her.
00:55For those who have some doubts about President Trump, I want to tell you a few things about the commander-in-chief I know and worked with.
01:15As ambassador to the United Nations, I had a front-row seat to his national security policies.
01:22We sure could use those again.
01:31Think about it.
01:33When Barack Obama was president, Vladimir Putin invaded Crimea.
01:39With Joe Biden as president, Putin invaded all of Ukraine.
01:45But when Donald Trump was president, Putin did nothing.
01:50No invasions.
01:58No invasions. No wars.
02:01That was no accident.
02:03Putin didn't attack Ukraine because he knew Donald Trump was tough.
02:10A strong president doesn't start wars.
02:14A strong president prevents wars.
02:34Then look at the Middle East.
02:37Every problem in that part of the world can be laid at the feet of Iran.
02:42The dictators who chant death to America are the bankrollers and weapons suppliers for Hamas and Hezbollah.
02:51They're behind the barbaric massacres and the hostage-taking.
02:56Once again, compare Trump and Biden.
03:01Trump got us out of the insane Iran nuclear deal.
03:11He imposed the toughest sanctions ever on Iran.
03:16And he eliminated the arch-terrorist Qasem Soleimani.
03:28Iran was too weak to start any wars.
03:32They knew Trump meant business, and they were afraid.
03:36And then there's Joe Biden.
03:43He lifted the sanctions.
03:45He begged them to get back into the nuclear deal.
03:48He surrendered in Afghanistan.
03:50He sent every possible sign of weakness.
03:55Even now, while Hamas is still holding Americans hostage,
04:01Biden is pressuring Israel instead of the terrorists.
04:10Between Israel and Hamas, Donald Trump is clear about who is our friend and who is our enemy.
04:25Then look at the border.
04:28It's the single biggest threat Americans face.
04:35Under Joe Biden, migrants are coming into our country by the thousands every day.
04:41We have no idea who they are, where they end up, or what they plan to do.
04:47And let me remind you, Kamala had one job.
04:52One job.
04:55And that was to fix the border.
04:57Now imagine her in charge of the entire country.
05:07Under Donald Trump, we didn't have the border disaster we have today,
05:11and we won't when he is president again.
05:26I was proud to serve America in President Trump's cabinet.
05:30And I'll tell you something you won't hear from the critics.
05:34He appreciated advice and input.
05:37Americans were well served by his presidency, even if they didn't agree with him on all things.
05:45Now, to my fellow Republicans, we must not only be a unified party,
05:54we must also expand our party.
