00:00Thank you, and first of all, thank you to the Vice President for your leadership and most importantly, thank you to the men and women of the National Guard.
00:12Here's the most important point. There are residents who lived in Washington, D.C. their entire lives.
00:18Their parents lived here, their grandparents lived here, and they have lived for generations in intolerable conditions of crime and decay.
00:27There are parts of the city, I moved from the city 20 years ago, there are places where I've seen graffiti that has been untouched for two decades.
00:36There are homeless encampments that have made it impossible for families to use public parks and public recreation for as long as I've lived here.
00:45There are hundreds of residents of this city who are shot in street violence every single year, making it one of the most violent cities on planet Earth.
00:56And for too long, 99% of this city has been terrorized by 1% of this city.
01:05And the voices that you hear out there, those crazy communists, they have no roots, they have no connections to the city, they have no families they're raising in this city,
01:14they have no one that they're sending to school in this city, they have no jobs in this city, they have no connections to this community at all.
01:20But they're the ones who've been advocating for the 1%, the criminals, the killers, the rapists, the drug dealers.
01:27And I'm glad they're here today.
01:29Because me, Pete, and the Vice President are all going to leave here, and inspired by them, we're going to add thousands more resources to this city to get the criminals and the gang members out of here.
01:39We're going to dismantle those networks, and we're going to prove that a city can serve for the law-abiding citizens who live there.
01:47We are not going to let the communists destroy a great American city, let alone the nation's capital.
01:53And let's just also address another thing.
01:55All these demonstrators that you've seen out here in recent days, all of these elderly white hippies, they're not part of the city and never have been.
02:03And by the way, most of the citizens who live in Washington, D.C. are black.
02:08This is not a city that has had any safety for its black citizens for generations.
02:16And President Trump is the one who is fixing that with the support of the Metropolitan Police Department, the support of the National Guard, and our federal law enforcement officers.
02:24So we're going to ignore these stupid white hippies that all need to go home and take a nap, because they're all over 90 years old, and we're going to get back in the business of protecting the American people and the citizens of Washington, D.C.
