00:00I'm here tonight to lay out a vision for the whole nation. To every citizen, whether you're a young
00:06or old man or woman, Democrat, Republican or independent, black or white, Asian or Hispanic,
00:14I extend to you a hand of loyalty and of friendship. Together we will lead America
00:21to new heights of greatness like the world has never seen before. We were right there in the
00:26first term. We got hit with COVID. We did a great job. Nobody knew what it was, but nobody's ever
00:32seen an economy pre-COVID. And then we handed over a stock market that was substantially higher than
00:38just prior to COVID coming in. Did a great job. Never got credit for that. We got credit for
00:44the war and defeating ISIS and so many things. The great economy, the biggest tax cuts ever,
00:50the biggest regulation cuts ever, the creation of Space Force, the rebuilding of our military.
00:56We did so much. We did so much. Right to try. Right to try is a big deal. We got right to try.
01:04They were trying to get that for 52 years. Somebody is terminally ill and hopefully there's
01:12nobody in this audience, but it does happen a lot. They're terminally ill and they can't use
01:17our new space age drugs and other things that we are way ahead. We have the greatest doctors in the
01:22world, the greatest laboratories in the world, and you can't do it. They've been trying to get that
01:27approved for 52 years. Wasn't that easy? The insurance companies didn't want to do it. They
01:31didn't want the risk. The labs didn't want to do it because if it didn't work, people are pretty
01:35far down the line toward death. They didn't want to do it. The doctors didn't want to have it on
01:40their records. So I got everybody into an office. 52 years they tried. Sounds simple, but it's not.
01:46And I got them to agree that somebody that needs it will, instead of going to
01:50Asia or Europe or someplace, or if you have no money going home and dying, just die.
01:57We got them to sign an agreement, agree to it, where they're not going to sue anybody. They're
02:01going to get all of this stuff. They're going to get it really fast. And what's happened is
02:05we're saving thousands and thousands of lives. It's incredible. Right to try.
02:11It's a great feeling.
