Yet as we are all too aware, the facility of ‘cut and
paste’ in word processing can tempt many a
presenter to take short cuts.
It is better to quote sources, if you can , as it gives proof to your efforts in preparation . I guess that was not an option for Mrs Trump to quote from a Democrat President’s speech.
It is better to quote sources, if you can , as it gives proof to your efforts in preparation . I guess that was not an option for Mrs Trump to quote from a Democrat President’s speech.
However ‘most things in Life have been thought of before ; the trick is to think of them again’ which I am reliably advised is a translation of a quote of Goethe.
So for his
acceptance speech, the speech writers for Donald Trump will inevitably have borrowed
/ researched/copied some of the classic techniques of rhetoric to compose his
speech.
To start with his opening “Friends, delegates and fellow Americans” opening. This certainly resonated the famous rhythms of “Friends Romans and Countrymen...” of
Mark Anthony’s speech from Shakespeare’s play Julius Caesar.( Act 3 Scene 2)
Trump’s selling tasks at Cleveland were to bring together the
rival factions of the Republican party camps to heal divisions as best he could
and to focus on the task ahead - to attack the Democrats and Hilary Clinton,
his opponent, for the race to the White House. He now has to sell himself as
the next leader to his country.

| The 'pattern of threes' is used heavily in Trump's speech. Here is the pattern cleverly used in this Budweiser Poster during the European Football Cup ,France.2016 Resonating with the ups and downs in emotions of football fans and the tension of extra times. Trump used his 'patterns of three' to resonate with his audience emotions on the ups and downs of America |
So let’s examine how Trump’s writers went about
the task. It is a long speech so feel free to surf and scroll :-
“ Friends, delegates and fellow
Americans (Shakespeare see above): I humbly and gratefully accept your
nomination for the presidency of the United States.
Who would have believed that when we
started this journey on June 16, last year, we — I say we because we are a team
— would have received almost 14
million votes (Factual attention getter combined with a rhetoric question),
the most in the history of the Republican party?
And that the Republican Party would get 60 % more votes than it
received 8 years ago. Who would have believed it? The Democrats on the other
hand, received 20 % fewer votes than they got four years ago, not so good.
Together, we
will lead our party back to the White House, and we will lead (notice the use of repeating
phrases e.g. ‘we will lead’ , Mr Trump uses the technique a lot as we will see)
our country back to safety,
prosperity, and peace (pattern
of threes – the first example of many in this speech). We will be a country of
generosity and warmth. But we will
also be a country of law and order.
Our convention occurs at a moment of crisis for our nation.
The attacks on our police, and the terrorism in our cities, threaten our very
way of life. Any politician who does not grasp this danger is not fit to lead
our country.
Americans watching this address tonight have seen the recent
images of violence in our streets and the chaos in our communities. Many have
witnessed this violence personally. Some have even been its victims. (His audience is not only
those in the Convention Hall but also the next audience to win over – the
American electorate.)
I have a message for all of you: The crime and violence that
today afflicts our nation will soon — and I mean very soon come to an end.
Beginning on January 20th 2017, safety will be restored.
The most basic duty of government is to defend the lives of
its citizens. Any government that fails to do so is a government unworthy to
lead.
It is finally time for a straightforward assessment of the
state of our nation. I will present the facts plainly and honestly. We cannot
afford to be so politically correct anymore.
So if you want to hear the corporate spin, the carefully-crafted lies, and the
media myths ( Pattern of threes)— the
Democrats are holding their convention next week. Go there.
But here, at our convention, there will be no lies. We will
honor the American people with the truth, and nothing else.
These are the facts: (Telegraphing to the audience to prepare their minds for key
messages)
Decades of progress made in bringing down crime are now
being reversed by this administration's rollback of criminal enforcement. (
here follows a set of facts to keep his audience’s attention.
Homicides last year increased by 17% in America's fifty largest cities. That's
the largest increase in 25
years.
In our nation's capital, killings have risen by 50 %. They are up nearly 60 % in nearby Baltimore.
In the president's hometown of Chicago, more than 2,000 have been the victims
of shootings this year alone. And almost 4,000 have been killed in the Chicago area since he took
office.
The number of police officers killed in the line of duty has
risen by almost 50 %
compared to this point last year.
Nearly 180,000
illegal immigrants with criminal records, ordered deported from our country,
are tonight roaming free to threaten peaceful citizens.
The number of new illegal immigrant families who have
crossed the border so far this year already exceeds the entire total of 2015.
 |
| The Pattern of threes in another advertisement this time for GWR. It works for ads and it works for speeches like Mr.Trump's |
( After a
series of facts ( statistics) particular examples are given to illustrate and
support the facts)
One such border-crosser was released and made his way to Nebraska.
There, he ended the life of an innocent young girl named Sarah Root. She was 21
years old and was killed the day after graduating from college with a 4.0 grade
point average. Her killer was then released a second time, and he is now a
fugitive from the law. I've met Sarah's beautiful family. But to this
administration, their amazing daughter was just one more American life that
wasn't worth protecting. One more child to sacrifice on the altar of open
borders.
What about our economy? Again, I will tell you the plain
facts that have been edited out of your nightly news and your morning newspaper ( the use of you and your rather than ‘the’ is more persuasive and
arresting to an audience):
Nearly four
in 10 African-American children are living in poverty, while 58% of
African-American youth are now not employed.
2 million
more Latinos are in poverty today than when the president took his oath of
office eight years ago.
Another 14
million people have left the workforce entirely.
Household incomes are down more than $ 4,000 since the year 2000. That is 16 years
ago.
Our trade deficit in goods reached — think of this — our
trade deficit is $800 hundred billion dollars. Think of that. $800 billion last
year alone. We will fix that.
The budget is no better. President Obama has almost doubled
our national debt to more than $19
trillion, and growing.
Yet, what do we have to show for it? ( rhetorical question to hold his audience’s attention) Our
roads and bridges are falling apart, our airports are in third world condition,
and 43 million
Americans are on food stamps.
Now let us consider the state of affairs abroad. Not only
have our citizens endured domestic disaster, but they have lived through one
international humiliation after another. One after another.
We all remember the images of our sailors being forced to
their knees by their Iranian captors at gunpoint. This was just prior to the
signing of the Iran deal, which gave back to Iran $150 billion and gave us absolutely
nothing. It will go down in history as one of the worst deals ever negotiated.
Another humiliation came when President Obama drew a red
line in Syria and the whole world knew it meant absolutely nothing.
In Libya, our consulate, the symbol of American prestige
around the globe was brought down in flames.
America is far less safe and the world is far less stable
than when Obama made the decision to put Hillary Clinton in charge of America's
foreign policy. I am certain it is a decision he truly regrets.
Her bad instincts and her bad judgement, something pointed
out by Bernie Sanders are what caused the disasters unfolding today. Let's
review the record. ( the
power of link back to lift the audience’s attention and memory)
In 2009, pre-Hillary, ISIS was not even on the map. Libya
was stable. Egypt was peaceful. Iraq had seen a big reduction in violence. Iran
was being choked by sanctions. Syria was somewhat under control.
After four years of Hillary Clinton, what do we have? ISIS
has spread across the region and the entire world. Libya is in ruins, and our
ambassador and his staff were left helpless to die at the hands of savage
killers. Egypt was turned over to the radical Muslim Brotherhood, forcing the
military to retake control. Iraq is in chaos. Iran is on the path to nuclear
weapons. Syria is engulfed in a civil war and a refugee crisis that now
threatens the West. After 15 years of wars in the Middle East, after trillions
of dollars spent and thousands of lives lost, the situation is worse than it has
ever been before.
This is the legacy of Hillary Clinton: Death, destruction
and terrorism and weakness.
But Hillary Clinton's legacy does not have to be America's
legacy. The problems we face now — poverty and violence at home, war and
destruction abroad — will last only as long as we continue relying on the same
politicians who created them. A change in leadership is required to produce a
change in outcomes.
Tonight, I will share with you for action for America. The
most important difference between our plan and that of our opponents, is that
our plan will put America first. Americanism, not globalism, will
be our credo.
As long as we are led by politicians who will not put
America first, then we can be assured that other nations will not treat America
with respect. The respect that we deserve. The American people will come first
once again.
First, my plan will begin with safety at home which means
safe (1) neighborhoods, (2) secure borders, and (3) protection from terrorism ( pattern of threes). There can be no prosperity without law
and order.
On the economy, I will outline reforms to add millions of
new jobs and trillions in new wealth that can be used to rebuild America.
A number of these reforms that I will outline tonight will
be opposed by some of our nation's most powerful special interests. That is
because these interests have rigged our political and economic system for their
exclusive benefit. Believe me. It is for their benefit. For their benefit. ( echoed repetition for emphasis)
(1)Big business,
(2) elite media and (3) major donors (pattern of threes) are lining up
behind the campaign of my opponent because they know she will keep our rigged
system in place. They are throwing money at her because they have total control
over every single thing she does. She is their puppet, and they pull the
strings. That is why Hillary Clinton's message is that things will never change. Never ever. ( echoed repetition for emphasis)
My message is that things have to change and they have to change right now. ( echoed repetition for emphasis)
Every day I wake up
determined to deliver a better life for the people all across this nation that
had been ignored, neglected
and abandoned. (
pattern of threes)
I have visited the laid-off factory workers, and the
communities crushed by our horrible and unfair trade deals. These are the forgotten men and women of
our country, and they are forgotten,
but they will not be forgotten
long. ( combination of echoed repetition for
emphasis in a pattern
of three !)
These are people who
work hard but no longer have a voice. I am your
voice. ( leader you and me together)
I have embraced crying mothers who have lost their children
because our politicians put their personal agendas before the national good.
I have no patience for injustice. No tolerance for
government incompetence. When innocent people suffer, because our political
system lacks the will, or the courage, or the basic
decency ( pattern of threes) to enforce our
laws, or worse still, has sold out to some corporate lobbyist for cash I am not
able to look the other way. And I won't look the other way.
And when a Secretary of State illegally stores her emails on
a private server, deletes 33,000 of them so the authorities can't see her
crime, puts our country at risk, lies about it in every different form and
faces no consequence — I know that
corruption has reached a level like never ever before in our country.
When the FBI director says that the Secretary of State was
"extremely careless" and "negligent" in handling our
classified secrets, I also know that these terms are minor compared to what she
actually did. They were just used to save her from facing justice for her terrible, terrible
crimes.( echoed repetition for emphasis)
In fact, her single greatest accomplishment may be
committing such an egregious crime and getting away with it, especially when
others who have been far less have paid so dearly.
When that same Secretary of State rakes in millions of
dollars trading access and favors to special interests and foreign powers, I
know the time for action has come.
I have joined the political arena so that the powerful can
no longer beat up on people that cannot defend themselves.
Nobody knows the system better than me, which is why I alone
can fix it. I have seen firsthand how the system is rigged against our
citizens, just like it was rigged against Bernie Sanders. He never had a
chance.
But his supporters will join our movement, because we will
fix his biggest issue: Trade deals that strip our country of jobs and the
distribution of wealth in the country.
Millions of Democrats will join our movement, because we are
going to fix the system so it works fairly and justly for each and every
American.
In this cause, I am proud to have at my side the next Vice
President of the United States: Governor Mike Pence of Indiana. And a great
guy. We will bring the same economic success to America that Mike brought
Indiana, which is amazing. He is a man of character and accomplishment. He is
the right man for the job.
The first task for our new administration will be to
liberate our citizens from the crime and terrorism
and lawlessness that threatens their — our communities. ( pattern of threes)
America was shocked to its core when our police officers in
Dallas were so brutally executed. Immediately after Dallas, we have seen
continued threats and violence against our law enforcement officials. Law
officers have been shot or killed in recent days in Georgia, Missouri,
Wisconsin, Kansas, Michigan and Tennessee. ( listed
examples to emphasise the point)
On Sunday, more police were gunned down in Baton Rouge,
Louisiana. Three were killed, and three were very badly injured. An attack on
law enforcement is an attack on all Americans.
I have a message to every last person threatening the peace
on our streets and the safety of our police: When I take the oath of office
next year, I will restore law and order to our country.
I will work with, and appoint, the best prosecutors and law
enforcement officials in the country to get the job properly done. In this race
for the White House, I am the law and order candidate.
The irresponsible rhetoric of our president, who has used
the pulpit of the presidency
( analogy) to divide us by race and color, has made America a more
dangerous environment than frankly, I have ever seen and anybody in this room
has ever watched or seeing.
This administration has failed America's inner cities.
Remember, it has failed America's inner
cities. It's failed them on education. It's failed them on jobs. It's failed
them on crime. It's failed them in every way
and on every single level. ( repetition to
emphasise)
When I am president, I will work to ensure that all of our
kids are treated equally, and protected equally. Every action I take, I will
ask myself: Does this make life better for young Americans in Baltimore,
Chicago, Detroit, and Ferguson ( reminder examples
that resonate with audience) who have really come in every way, have the
same right to live out their dreams as any other child in America? ( rhetorical question)
To make life safe in America, we must also address the
growing threats from outside the country. We are going to defeat the barbarians of ISIS. And we
are going to defeat
them bad.
Once again, France is the victim of brutal Islamic
terrorism. Men, women and children viciously mowed down. Lives ruined. Families
ripped apart. A nation in mourning. The damage and devastation that can be
inflicted by Islamic radicals has been proven over and over. At the World Trade
Center, at an office party in San Bernardino, at the Boston Marathon, and a
military recruiting center in Chattanooga, Tennessee. And many other locations.
( reinforcing point by examples)
Only weeks ago, in Orlando, Florida, 49 wonderful Americans
were savagely murdered by an Islamic terrorist. This time, the terrorist
targeted LGBTQ community.
No good. And we're going to stop it. As your president, I
will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens from the violence
and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology. Believe me. And I have to say as
a Republican, it is so nice to hear you cheering for what I just said. Thank
you.
To protect us from terrorism, we need to focus on three things.
We must have the best,
absolutely the best (
repetition for emphasis), (1) gathering of intelligence
anywhere in the world. The best.
We must abandon the (2)failed
policy of nation- building and regime change that Hillary Clinton pushed
in Iraq, Libya, in Egypt, and Syria.
Instead, we must work with all of our allies who share our
goal of destroying ISIS and stamping out Islamic terrorism and doing it now, doing it
quickly. ( Repetition for emphasis) We're going to win. We're going
to win fast. This includes working with our greatest ally in the region,
the state of Israel.
Recently I have said that NATO was obsolete. Because it did
not properly cover terror. And also that many of the member countries were not
paying their fair share. As usual, the United States has been picking up the
cost. Shortly thereafter, it was announced that NATO will be setting up a new
program in order to combat terrorism. A true step in the right direction.
Lastly, and very importantly, we must immediately (3)suspend
immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism until
such time as proven vetting mechanisms have been put in place. We don't want
them in our country.
My opponent has called for a radical 550 % increase — think
of this, this is not believable, but this is what is happening — a 550 %
increase in Syrian refugees on top of existing massive refugee flows coming
into our country already under the leadership of president Obama.
She proposes this despite the fact that there's no way to
screen these refugees in order to find out who they are or where they come
from. I only want to admit individuals into our country who will support our
values and love our people. Anyone who endorses violence,
hatred or oppression ( pattern of threes)
is not welcome in our country and never ever will be.
Decades of record immigration have produced lower wages and
higher unemployment for our citizens, especially for African-American and
Latino workers. We are going to have an immigration system that works, but one
that works for the American people.
On Monday, we heard from three parents whose children were
killed by illegal immigrants Mary Ann Mendoza, Sabine Durden, and my friend
Jamiel Shaw. (
Specific examples to raise audience interest and of course three !!) They
are just three brave representatives of many thousands who have suffered so
greatly.
Of all my travels in this country, nothing has affected me
more, nothing even close than the time I have spent with the mothers and
fathers who have lost their children to violence spilling across our borders,
which we can solve. We have to solve it. ( repetition for emphasis)These families have no special interests to represent them. There are no demonstrators to protect them and none to protest on their behalf. ( pattern of threes)
My opponent will never meet with them, or share in their
pain. Believe me. Instead, my opponent wants sanctuary cities. But where was sanctuary for Kate Steinle? Where was sanctuary ( repetition to stress the point) for the children
of Mary Ann, Sabine and Jamiel? It’s so sad to even be talking about this. We
can solve it so quickly. Where was sanctuary for all the other Americans who
have been so brutally murdered, and who have suffered so horribly? These
wounded American families have been alone. But they are not alone any longer.
Tonight, this candidate and this whole nation stand in their
corner to support them, to send them our love, and to pledge in their honor
that we will save countless more families from suffering the same awful fate.
We are going to build a great border wall (1)to stop
illegal immigration, (2) to stop the
gangs and the violence, and (3) to stop the drugs from pouring into our
communities. ( pattern of threes and repetition)
I have been honored to receive the endorsement of America's
Border Patrol agents, and will work directly with them to protect the integrity
of our lawful, lawful,
( repetition) immigration system.
By ending catch-and-release on the border, we will stop the
cycle of human smuggling and violence. Illegal border crossings will go down.
We will stop it. It will not be happening very much anymore. Believe me. ( Simple
and direct appeal to audience)
Peace will be restored by enforcing the rules for the
millions who overstay their visas, our laws will finally receive the respect
they deserve.
Tonight, I want every American whose demands for immigration
security have been denied and every politician who has denied them to listen
very closely to the words I am about to say: On on January 20 of 2017, 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.
We are going to be considerate and compassionate to
everyone. But my greatest compassion will be for our own struggling citizens.
My plan is the exact opposite of the radical and dangerous
immigration policy of Hillary Clinton. Americans want relief from uncontrolled
immigration. Which is what we have now. Communities want relief. Yet Hillary
Clinton is proposing (1) mass amnesty,
(2) mass immigration, and (3)mass lawlessness.
( Pattern of threes and repetition to drive home
the message)
( Further pattern of threes to
come!)
Her plan will (1) overwhelm your schools and hospitals, (2)further
reduce your jobs and wages, and (3)make it
harder for recent immigrants to escape from the tremendous cycle of poverty
they are going through right now and make it almost impossible for them to join
the middle class.
I have a different vision for our workers. It begins with a
new, fair trade policy that protects our jobs and stands up to countries that
cheat — of which there are many.
It's been a signature message of my campaign from day one,
and it will be a signature feature of my presidency from the moment I take the
oath of office. I have made billions of dollars in business making deals. Now
I'm going to make our country rich again. Using the greatest businesspeople of
the world, I'm going to turn our bad trade agreements into great trade
agreements.
America has lost nearly-one third of its manufacturing jobs since 1997 ( fact to raise
the interest and attention level), following the enactment of disastrous
trade deals supported by bill and Hillary Clinton. Remember, it was Bill
Clinton who signed NAFTA, one of the worst economic deals ever made by our
country. Or frankly, any other country. Never ever again.
I am going to bring our jobs back our jobs to Ohio and
Pennsylvania and New York and Michigan and all of America and I am not going to
let companies move to other countries, firing their employees along the way,
without consequences. Not going to happen anymore.
My opponent, on the other hand, has supported virtually
every trade agreement that has been destroying our middle class. She supported
NAFTA, and she supported China's entrance into the world trade organization.
Another one of her husband's colossal mistakes and disasters. She supported the
job killing trade deal with South Korea. She she supported the Trans-Pacific
Partnership which will not only destroy our manufacturing but it will make
America subject to the rulings of foreign governments. And it is not going to
happen.
I pledge to never sign any trade agreement that hurts our
workers, or that diminishes our freedom and Independence. We will never ever
sign bad trade deals. America first again. American first.
Instead, I will make individual deals with individual
countries. No longer will we enter into these massive transactions with many
countries that are thousands of pages long and which no one from our country
even reads or understands. We are going to enforce all trade violations against
any country that cheats. This includes stopping China's outrageous theft of
intellectual property, along with their illegal product dumping, and their
devastating currency manipulation. They are the greatest that ever came about,
they are the greatest currently manipulators ever.
Our horrible trade agreements with China, and many others,
will be totally renegotiated. That includes renegotiating NAFTA to get a much
better deal for America and will walk away if we don't get that kind of a deal.
Our country is going to start building and making things again.
Next comes the reform of our tax laws, regulations and
energy rules. While Hillary Clinton plans a massive, and I mean massive, tax
increase, I have proposed the largest tax reduction of any candidate who has
run for president this year, Democrat or Republican. Middle-income Americans
will experience profound relief, and taxes will be greatly simplified for everyone.
I mean everyone.
America is one of the highest-taxed nations in the world.
Reducing taxes will cause new companies and new jobs to come roaring back into
our country. Believe me. It will happen and it will happen fast.
Then we are going to deal with the issue of regulation, one
of the greatest job killers of them all. Excessive regulation is costing our
country as much as $2 trillion a year, and we will end and it very quickly.
We are going to lift the restrictions on the production of
American energy. This will produce more than $20 trillion in job-creating
economic activity over the next four decades.
My opponent, on the other hand, wants to put the great
miners and steelworkers of our country out of work and out of business. That
will never happen with Donald J trump as president. Our steelworkers and are
miners are going back to work again.
With these new economic policies, trillions of dollars will
start flowing into our country. This new wealth will improve the quality of
life for all Americans. We will build the roads, highways, bridges, tunnels,
airports, and the railways of our tomorrow. This, in turn, will create millions
of more jobs.
We will rescue kids from failing schools by helping their
parents send them to a safe school of their choice. My opponent would rather
protect education bureaucrats than serve American children. That is what she is
doing and that is what she has done.
We will repeal and replace disastrous Obamacare. You will be
able to choose your own doctor again.
And we will fix TSA at the airports, which is a total
disaster. Thank you.
We are going to work with all of our students who are
drowning in debt to take the pressure off these young people just starting out
in their adult lives. Tremendous problems.
We will completely rebuild our depleted military. And the
countries that we protecting at a massive cost to us will be asked to pay their
fair share.
We will take care of our great veterans like they have never
been taken care of before. My just-released 10 point plan has received
tremendous better support. We will guarantee those who serve this country will
be able to visit the doctor or hospital of their choice without waiting five
days in a line and dying.
My opponent dismissed the VA scandal, one more sign of how
out of touch she really is.
We are going to ask every department head and government to
provide a list of wasteful spending projects that we can eliminate in my first
100 days. The politicians have talked about this for years, but I'm going to do
it.
We are also going to appoint justices to the United States
Supreme Court who will uphold our laws and our constitution. The replacement of
our beloved Justice Scalia will be a person of similar views, principles and
judicial philosophies. Very important. This will be one of the most important
issues decided by this election.
My opponent wants to essentially abolish the 2nd Amendment.
I, on the other hand, received the early and strong endorsement of the National
Rifle Association. And will protect the right of all Americans to keep their
families safe.
At this moment, I would like to thank the evangelical
community because, I will tell you what, the support they have given me — and
I'm not sure I totally deserve it — has been so amazing. And has been such a
big reason I'm here tonight. They have much to contribute to our policies.
Yet our laws prevent you from speaking your mind from your
own pulpits. An amendment, pushed by Lyndon Johnson, many years ago, threatens
religious institutions with a loss of their tax-exempt status if they openly
advocate their political views. Their voice has been taken away. I will work
hard to repeal that language and to protect free speech for all Americans.
We can accomplish these great things and so much more. All
we need to do is start believing in ourselves a in our country again. Start
believing. It is time to show the whole world that America is back, bigger and
better and stronger than ever before.
In this journey, I'm so lucky to have at my side my wife
Melania and my wonderful children Don, Ivanka, Eric, Tiffany, and Barron: You
will always be my greatest source of pride and joy. And by the way, Melania and
Ivanka, did they do a job?
My dad, Fred Trump, was the smartest and hardest working man
I ever knew. I wonder sometimes what he'd say if he were here to see this
tonight. It's because of him that I learned, from my youngest age, to respect
the dignity of work and the dignity of working people.
He was a guy most comfortable in the company of bricklayers,
carpenters, and electricians and I have a lot of that in me also. I love those
people.
Then there's my mother, Mary. She was strong, but also warm
and fair-minded. She was a truly great mother. She was also one of the most
honest and charitable people I have ever known, and a great, great judge of
character. She could pick them out from anywhere.
To my sisters, Mary Anne and Elizabeth, my brother Robert
and my late brother Fred, I will always give you my love. You are most special
to me. I have loved my life in business.
But now, my sole and exclusive mission is to go to work for
our country, to go to work for you. It is time to deliver a victory for the
American people. We don't win anymore, but we are going to start winning again.
But to do that, we must break free from the petty politics of the past.
America is a nation of believers, dreamers, and strivers ( pattern of threes)that
is being led by a group of censors,
critics, and cynics.( pattern of threes) Remember: All of the people
telling you you can't have the country you want, are the same people, that
would not stand, I mean they said Trump does not have a chance of being here
tonight, not a chance, the same people. We love defeating those people, don't
we? (Appeal Question)
Love it.
No longer can we rely on those same people. In the media and
politics who, will say anything to keep a rigged system in place. Instead, we
must choose to believe in America.
History is watching us now. It's we don't have much time. We
don't have much time. It's waiting to see if we will rise to the occasion, and
if we will show the whole world that America is still free and independent and
strong.
I am asking for your support tonight so that I can be year
champion in the White House. And I will be a champion. Your champion.
My opponent asks her supporters to recite a three-word
loyalty pledge. It reads: "I'm with her."
I choose to recite a different pledge. My pledge reads: "I'm with you the American
people."( You appeal)
I am your
( You appeal)voice. So to every
parent who dreams for their child, and every child who dreams for their future,
I say these words to you tonight:
I'm with you, and I
will fight for you,
and I will win for you.
To all Americans tonight, in all our cities and towns, I
make this promise:
(Classic
Summary Close on three points and final mission statement)
( 1)We will make America strong again.
(2)We will make America proud again.
(3) We will make America safe again.
And we will make America great again!
God bless you and goodnight! I love you!
