“Wow, this crowd has some fight in it. I am so thankful that each and every single one of you who’ve come.
“I just rolled down from the Capitol building about two miles away down Pennsylvania Avenue. And I will tell you, the courage I see in this crowd is not represented on that hill.
“My friends, I will tell you right now that there is a new Republican Party rising. The founders of our great country saw to it that the people who consent to be governed should have a voice in that government.
“But my friends, the Democrats, with all the fraud they have done in this election, the Republicans hiding and not fighting, they are trying to silence your voice.
“Make no mistake about it, they do not want you to be heard. But my friends, when I look out into this crowd, I can confidently say, this crowd has the voice of lions. There is a new Republican Party on the rise that will represent this country, that will go and fight in Washington D.C.

“My friends, I encourage you, go back to your states after today, hold your representatives accountable, make sure that they stood up for election integrity, and make your voices heard.
“My friends, I want you to chant with me so loud that the cowards on Washington D.C. that I serve with can hear you. While I leave, let’s get a chant so Donald Trump knows who supports him: U-S-A U-S-A U-S-A.
