In an election year, US presidents make many speeches, but the speech at the party convention is considered the most important: in it, the president addresses his party, thanks to and with the help of which he gained power in the country four years ago, and whose leader he will remain as long as he lives at the White House.

Traditionally, presidents deliver this speech while in the same hall with thousands of congress delegates, however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, both major US parties refused to hold mass "live" congresses - Democrats in full, Republicans in part. Therefore, Trump turned to party members and Americans from the South Lawn of the White House in the presence of a large audience - almost 1,6 thousand people. It was noticed that many of those present were not wearing protective masks.

Daughter and adviser to the President Ivanka Trump gave him the floor. Trump walked to the podium, accompanied by First Lady Melania Trump, and began his speech by describing his efforts to protect Americans from Category 4 Hurricane Laura, which hit the southern United States on August 27.

Trump's speech focused on three main themes: the tremendous successes of his administration, the great future of the United States, and the danger that Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden poses to the country. He called on several occasions under the banner of the Republican Party of Democrats and Independent Americans for a "new spirit of unity."

Trump promised that after defeating the "Chinese virus", the spread of which, he said, China could, but could not contain, the United States would return to "record prosperity."

Trump recalled his great predecessors in the White House - Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt. He compared the crises they faced (Civil War and World War II) to his administration's response to the coronavirus.

Biden's criticism

Throughout his speech, Trump regularly warned that Biden could destroy the United States: “Never before have voters faced a clear choice between two parties, two visions of the future, two philosophies and two programs. This election will decide whether we can keep the American dream alive or let the socialist agenda destroy our glorious destiny. ”

Trump stressed: “Joe Biden is not the savior of the American soul. He is the destroyer of American greatness. "

He accused Biden of moving jobs from the States to other countries and sending Americans to endless wars overseas. with the BBC.

“China will become the master of our country if Biden wins the election,” the head of state said.

Trump said Biden, over his 47-year political career, has deliberately and consistently deceived and traded his constituents. Trump said that it was because of such actions of Biden that he decided to lead the country 4 years ago, since he no longer had the strength to look at this "betrayal."

According to him, the Democratic convention was devoted to criticizing the United States as a country of racial, social and economic inequality. He believes that such a vision is incompatible with governing the country.

“Today I want to ask you a very simple question: How can the Democratic Party rule our country if they spend all their time destroying our country? In the backward vision of the left, the United States is not the freest, fairest, and most exceptional country in the world. Instead, they see an immoral country that must be punished for its sins,” says the current president.

Trump has mentioned Biden over 40 times.

International relations

Trump devoted a small part of his speech to international relations. In this aspect, almost all the flurry of criticism from the president fell on China. He listed the achievements of his administration: NATO members are spending more on defense; revised international agreements disadvantageous to the United States, including the Paris Climate Agreement; US Embassy moved to Jerusalem; the jurisdiction of Israel over the Golan Heights is recognized; UAE agreed to establish diplomatic relations with Israel; the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan is in progress; the most severe sanctions were introduced against Iran; ISIS defeated; the leaders of the terrorists, in particular the "terrorist number one in the world" Suleimani, were destroyed. Trump stressed that Americans are no longer involved in wars abroad, as they have been with all presidents before him.

Trump did not forget to mention the border wall with Mexico. He stated that he was able to ensure the security and integrity of the US borders. He also spoke about the record fight against illegal immigration.

US domestic policy

The head of state spoke about the successes in the economy, his fight against "Big Pharma" and the decree, which will reduce the cost of drugs, and about criminal reform.

Trump noted that minorities flourished during his presidency: “I will humbly say that I have done more for the African American community than any other president since Abraham Lincoln, our first Republican president. I have done more for the African American community in three years than Joe Biden has done in 47 years. And when I am re-elected, I will do even better. "

After this phrase, those gathered at the meeting began to chant "four more years."

"Trojan horse of socialism"

After a small digression, the President returned to criticize Joe Biden, "who has spent his entire career on the wrong side of history" and "who has an infamous track record of the most catastrophic betrayals and mistakes of our time."

Trump compared the success of the administration in the fight against coronavirus with what other countries are doing: “The United States has one of the lowest death rates among all the largest countries in the world. The death rate of the European Union is almost three times higher than ours, but you are not told about it. "

In his speech, Trump also mentioned the unemployment rate, which was a record low for the United States before the pandemic. He noted that he managed to save more than 15 million jobs, and that if the Biden plan were implemented, the United States would turn into a desert: "The Biden plan is not a solution to the virus, but a surrender to the virus."

Donald Trump has devoted a lot of time to describing the terrible future that awaits the United States if the Democrats win the elections - a disaster awaits everything and everyone: from the stock market and energy to education and morality. The main reason for this, he said, is: "Biden's program was made in China, but my program was made in the USA."

After that, Trump stressed that his administration spent four years to fix what Biden did for 47 years, and Biden is the "Trojan horse of socialism."

After that, Trump criticized the Democratic Party as a whole. At the Congress of Democrats, the ex-Republicans, who went under the banner of the Democrats, spoke, and at the Congress of the Republicans - the ex-Democrats. Trump said that the Democratic program is the most radical left in the history of the United States. He stressed that the Democrats do not condemn the rioters and vandals rampaging in the cities, that the worst criminal situation in the United States is in the cities ruled by the Democrats. He reiterated his call on Democrats and “all who believe in the greatness of the United States” to join his banner, that is, to become Republicans.

Trump condemned the demolition of the monuments and promised to protect the police and law enforcement, as well as political correctness, which grew into something more: “Americans are exhausted, they are forced to use words and phrases only from an approved list so as not to offend anyone. These lists are getting tougher, which puts even more pressure on all Americans. "

Future USA

The president concluded his speech with stories about the future and what awaits the United States if he is re-elected. Trump has pledged that the United States will take the first woman to the moon, and the American flag will be the first flag to be planted on Mars.

“On November XNUMX, we will make our country safer, we will make the country stronger, we will make it more proud, and we will make it greater than ever before,” Trump is convinced.

The speech ended with fireworks.

Biden reaction

During Trump's speech, Joe Biden posted several tweets: “Donald Trump is not building a wall around the US, he is building a wall around us. When President Trump took office, he inherited a growing economy from the Obama-Biden administration. Like everything else he inherited in his life, he appropriated it. Donald Trump calls himself a wartime president. But now, instead of leading the fight against coronavirus, he is waving a white flag. "

Biden agreed with Trump on one thing: this is probably the most important election in the country's history.

A few hours before the Republican rally, Joe Biden's campaign headquarters released a video message from the Democratic presidential challenger.

In his speech, the ex-vice president recalled that mass protests and demonstrations swept the United States during the presidency of Donald Trump, and it was he who should be responsible for the unrest in dozens of US cities.

"When Donald Trump tries to convince you that you won't be safe in Joe Biden's America, just look around and ask yourself, how safe do you feel in Donald Trump's America?" asked the former vice president.
