00:00We win battles. As you know, today is not only Veterans Day, but it's my proclamation

00:06that we are now going to be saying and calling Victory Day for World War I. Victory Day. You

00:15know, I was recently at an event and I saw France was celebrating Victory Day, but we didn't. And I

00:24saw France was celebrating another Victory Day for World War II and other countries were

00:31celebrating. They were all celebrating. We're the one that won the wars. And I said, from

00:36now on, we're going to say Victory Day for World War I and World War II. And we could

00:42do for plenty of other wars, but we'll start with those two. Maybe someday somebody else

00:48will add a couple of more because we want a lot of good ones. But when I see other countries

00:52celebrating Victory Day, I watched it. I watched UK. I watched Russia. They were

00:59celebrating Victory Day, World War II. And I said, we got to have a Victory Day. Nobody

01:04even talked about it in our country. But from now on, we're going to be celebrating Victory

01:09Day for World War I, for World War II, and frankly, for everything else. Under the Trump

01:17administration, we're restoring the pride and the winning spirit of the United States

01:21military. That's why we have officially renamed the Department of Defense back to the original

01:28name, Department of War. And remember, we won World War I. We won World War II. We won

01:38everything in between. We won everything that came before. And then we brilliantly decided

01:45to change the name of this great thing that we all created together. And we became politically

01:55correct. We don't like being politically correct. So we're not going to be politically correct

02:00anymore. From now on, when we fight a war, we only fight for one reason, to win. We fight

02:07to win.
