Now, you see a lot of press back there. So before we go any further, I want to address todays sentencing of a man, Roger Stone. Roger Stone. Hes become a big part of the news over the last little while. And Im following this very closely, and I want to see it play out to its fullest because Roger has a very good chance of exoneration, in my opinion. (Applause.)
Ive known and you people understand it probably better than anybody in the room. Ive known Roger Stone and his wife, whos really a terrific woman, for a long time. And Roger is definitely a character. Everybody sort of knows Roger. Everybody knows him. And most people like him. Some people probably dont, but I do and I always have. Hes a smart guy. Hes a little different. But those are sometimes the most interesting. But hes a good person. His family is fantastic. Hes got a fantastic family. And theres always a reason for that, isnt there?
Roger was never involved in the Trump campaign for President. He wasnt involved. I think early on, long before I announced, he may have done a little consulting work or something, but he was not involved when I ran for President. And hes a person who, again, he knows a lot of people having to do with politics. His whole life is politics. Thats what he is.
And its my strong opinion that the forewoman of the jury the woman who was in charge of the jury is totally tainted. When you take a look, how can you have a person like this? She was a anti-Trump activist. Can you imagine this? (Laughter.) Now, you wouldnt know about a bad jury. Anybody here know about bad? No? (Laughter.) These people know more about bad juries than everybody here, including the sheriff and the mayor and everybody. (Laughter.)
They know about bad juries. Were not going to say it too much, so lets not say it in front of more cameras than this. (Laughter.) But youre my experts, okay?
No, but this is a woman who was an anti-Trump person, totally. Now, I dont know if this is a fact, but she had a horrible social media account. The things she said on the account were unbelievable. She didnt reveal that when she was chosen.
And shes, I guess, from what I hear, a very strong woman, a very dominant person, so she can get people to do whatever she wants. And she got on, and then she became the foreperson, forewoman, on the jury. And I assume they asked her a question: Do you have any bias? Do you have any She didnt say that. So is that a defrauding of the court? You tell me.
But does this undermine our fair system of justice? How can you have a person like this? Did she delete her social account? And when Roger was determined by the same jury to be guilty before the judge issued a sentence and he was determined to be guilty and she started going a little wild. Shes very happy. And she started saying things that people said, Thats strange. Thats strange. And then they started looking at it, and how can you have a jury pool tainted so badly? Its not fair. Its not fair.
And, you know, its not happening to a lot of other people, because you could look, I wont name names, but everybody knows who Im talking about. Whats happening over there? Nobody, nobody.
There are people that are even in Roger Stones basic business of politics that were going to be in big trouble. Well-known people. The biggest people. Big trouble. They were forced to leave their firm.
One man was forced to leave his firm and he was going to bad things were going to happen to him the following day. Nothing happened. Nothing happened. He was the biggest; nothing happened. But it happened to Roger Stone, and it happened to General Flynn. And it happened to I wont name names. (Laughter.) It happened to a lot of people, and destroyed a lot of peoples lives.
And Im here to make a fair system. Again, Roger is not somebody who worked on my campaign. I know Roger, but a lot of people know Roger. Everybody sort of knows Roger. And what happened to him is unbelievable. They say he lied. But other people lied too. Just to mention, Comey lied. (Laughter.) McCabe lied. Lisa Page lied. Her lover, Strzok Peter Strzok lied. You dont know who these people are? Just trust me, they all lied. (Laughter and applause.)
You had people that forged documents. You had people that wrote fake dossiers and brought them to the FBI, and used people in the Justice Department to get them to the FBI. And these people know in the front row, you know better than anybody in this room what the hell Im talking about, probably. (Laughter.)
So Im only responding to you. Im not even talking to the folks all the way (inaudible). (Laughter.) But they get it better than anybody too. A lot of bad things are happening, and were cleaning it out. Were cleaning the swamp. Were draining the swamp. I just never knew how deep the swamp was. (Applause.)
So if this woman was tainted, I hope the judge will find that she was tainted. And if she isnt tainted, that will be fine too. But Im not going to do anything in terms of the great powers bestowed upon a President of the United States. I want the process to play out. I think thats the best thing to do, because Id love to see Roger exonerated, and Id love to see it happen because I personally think he was treated very unfairly.
They talk about witness tampering. But the man that he was tampering didnt seem to have much of a problem with it. (Inaudible) think they know each other for years. And its not like the tampering that I see on television when you watch a movie. Thats called tampering with guns to peoples heads and lots of other things.
So were going to see what it is. Maybe there was tampering and maybe there wasnt. But I can tell you that there was tremendous lying. Really, lying and leaking classified documents. That, you dont know about. But they leaked classified documents.
You know, there was a young sailor who took pictures of an old submarine and sent them to his mother and a friend. And they destroyed his life. I let him out. They were considered classified. Now, Russia and China, I guarantee you, have the pictures of this submarine, for a long time. The submarine was like 30 years old. They had them in the first year; they didnt have to wait for the 30th year. But this is a famous story. And they had these pictures, and they put him in jail. He sent them to his mother and to his friend. His friend was not interested in what youre thinking. And there were many other cases where documents were leaked, even accidentally. Its so classified documents are so important that even if they are leaked accidentally
Now, Hillary Clinton leaked more classified documents than any human being, I believe (laughter) in the history of the United States of America. Right? And she deleted 33,000 emails. And she said, Oh And, by the way, if you did it: five years, maybe more. Okay? But you never have access to classified. Very few people have access. She deleted 33,000 emails. I kept waiting. Because, you know, they can talk Benghazi; they can talk 100 different things.
What people understand is when you get rid of this kind of evidence so the United States Congress said they subpoenaed her. They wanted to see her emails. After getting the subpoena, she deleted 33,000 emails. And they said do you remember this? yes, the emails were about her yoga classes, her exercising, and her daughters wedding. Thirty-three thousand about her daughters wedding? (Laughter.) That must have been the greatest wedding of all time. (Laughter.) And nothing happened to her. And yet, theyll put a young sailor in an old submarine, with a picture a couple of pictures theyll put him into jail.
And I pardoned him because it was unfair that she was able to do it at the highest level, and his level wasnt what he did was, it was confidential. Confidential is a much lower class then classified.
So I tell you this because its interesting. This is part of our nation. This is whats going on now.
So Im going to let this process play out. And we want to have a great and fair court system. And I hope you had a fair and you know, fair and wonderful court system. But perhaps you didnt. Perhaps you didnt. And if you didnt, we want to straighten it out. But we have to straighten it out also at the top level.
So we had a lot of dirty cops. FBI is phenomenal. I love the people in the FBI. But the people at the top were dirty cops. And if you would have read the report written about Comey 78 pages of kill, with a reference of Go get him. They really said it: Go get him. And then you read about McCabe and you see what they said. Its so bad. And were just waiting. Im not doing any Im just sitting here, standing here, talking to you. Were waiting. (Laughter.)
So I just want to let the fake-news media know that (laughter) I just want to let them know, because theres few people more dishonest than these people, I will tell you that. And you have some very good ones. A hell of a lot more dishonest than most of you in the audience were. (Laughter.)
But Im going to let the media know that Im going to watch the process; Im going to watch it very closely. And at some point, Ill make a determination.
But Roger Stone and everybody has to be treated fairly. And this has not been a fair process. Okay? (Applause.) Thank you.
{snip}
You dont know how much people respect you. You dont hear it. You dont hear it. People respect you like you wouldnt believe. So we just want to thank you all. The job you do is incredible. The law enforcement. We honor your selfless service and bravery.
By the way, Fire Department, also. I just left an area of the country where two firemen were just killed, and terrible up in a certain portion of a beautiful place in California, where a building collapsed. Two people killed. Two firemen killed. And we honor them. And we this took place yesterday. But theyre fantastic.

THE PRESIDENT:
{snip}
But theyre really a testament to the bright future that awaits you all. Its a great its a great time in our country in so many ways. Our military is strong, our country is just strong. Were stronger in, I would say, just about every way than we ever have been before militarily.
You take a look at what were doing with the stock market. Weve had 144 out of three years Ive been here just a little more than three years. And in a little more than three years, Jon, weve had 144 stock market records.
Now, thats good for everybody. Its good for your 401(k)s and its good for jobs. And its good for those are the ones that I think about first: jobs, 401(k)s. And people are making a lot of money and people are getting tremendous youll be investing some of your money in this now. Youll be doing fantastically well and youre going to have 401(k)s or something the equivalent. And youre going to do fantastically well.
And, you know, as I say sometimes in speeches: The best is yet to come. We have tremendous potential. We have just made some incredible trade deals that will soon start kicking in. Its going to make it a different country, economically. As good as it does, its going to be much better.
We had horrible, horrible deals, or no deals at all, and now we have phenomenal deals. We made a massive deal with China. Then we did the USMCA; thats Mexico, Canada. We did a 40-billion-dollar-a-year deal with Japan and we did a deal with South Korea, and we have other deals too. And Im going to India next week and were talking about you know, they have 1.5 billion people, and Prime Minister Modi is number two on Facebook. Number two. Think of that.
You know who number one is? Trump. Do you believe that? (Applause.) Trump. Number one. I just found that out. The head of Facebook, Mr. Zuckerberg, came in three weeks ago. He said, Congratulations. I said, On what? He said, Youre number one on Facebook. I said, Thats cool. (Laughter.) Number one on Twitter too. But thats because (laughter and applause.) Its true.
And if I wasnt, I could never say it because it would be breaking news that (laughter) that Trump told a fib. No, number one. And I congratulated Prime Minister Modi. I said, But, you know, you have 1.5 billion people. I have 350 million. You have an advantage.
{snip}
We want every citizen to join Americas unparalleled success and every community to take part in Americas extraordinary rise. Since my election, we have created 7 million new jobs. (Applause.) The unemployment rate has reached the lowest rate in over 51 years. Think of that: 51 years. Half a century. (Applause.)
And, by the way, the 7 million jobs they thought it might be 2 million, if were lucky. You go back three years, they were saying 2 million. We did 7 million, and its pretty amazing.
African American poverty has declined to the lowest rate ever recorded. (Applause.) But I think one of the things were most proud of in this incredible economy well call it Trump economy. Call it well call it the Ponder economy. Well call it something. (Laughter.)
But whatever we call it, this economy has been great. And the thing that might be the best of all is what weve done with criminal justice reform. I really think so. (Applause.)
Our jobs market is so strong that businesses are recruiting the former prisoners off the sidelines in, by the way, record numbers. Record numbers. Never happened anywhere even close to these numbers.
We know that having a job gives you the best chance to work hard, to earn the paycheck, care for your families, chase your dreams, and succeed.
Through our Pledge to Americas Workers, spearheaded by a very famous young woman did you ever hear of Ivanka? (Laughter and applause.) She did. Shes she said, Daddy, I want to help with jobs. I said, Well, Ill put you here, there. No, no. I want to help with jobs. I want to get people jobs. They have to be trained. They have to be
So she had a goal of 500,000 jobs. Thats a lot half a million jobs. She just broke, Jared, I guess is Jared around? She just broke she just broke Jared Kushner she just broke the father of criminal justice reform. He really is. I mean, he works so hard. And Ivanka just was broke 15 million jobs. Fifteen. (Applause.) Mayor, thats good, right? (Applause.)
And this is where they they train the people in the companies. The government cant do this. Walmart took a million people. Think of it. These big companies take and they train them. Its very complicated stuff, with computerization and all of the things you have to learn. Thats not for government.
Fifteen million people taken by many of the biggest companies, but also midsized companies, even some smaller. But she broke 15 million people about two weeks ago. And her goal was 500,000 people over a fairly long period of time. Fifteen million. But if you know Ivanka, youre not at all surprised. Believe me. I wasnt surprised. I was sort of saying, So what else is new? (Applause.)

Thank you. (Applause.) Thank you.

(29,540 posts)7. Florida's electoral votes make a big difference, but I have no faith
in the counting. Putin's psyop and interference will have one side or the other believing the election was stolen. I suspect there will be arguments about who actually won the primaries. Moscow Mitch will keep anything effective from being done about election integrity but lots of voter suppression will happen.
