President Donald Trump took on the Washington swamp on Saturday in South Carolina, where he made a series of bold remarks and promises to a packed crowd of electrified supporters.
He slammed his opponents for being “good for China,” but highlighted that “Donald J. Trump is GOOD FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA – THAT’S WHAT I’M GOOD FOR.”
The president’s remarks were delivered in Conway at Coastal Carolina University at a “Get Out the Vote” rally in Conway.
He spent time attacking his establishment opponents, describing Joe Biden as a “mental basket case” who was bought and paid for by China. He also flamed former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley for being a candidate of “Wall Street and the war machine.”
He stated that Haley was “not beating Biden” in the polls and reminded voters, “on the amnesty bill she sided with Joe Biden and I sided with the PEOPLE of the United States of America.”
Trump cited his dominant poll numbers from Morning Consult’s most recent GOP primary tracker, where Haley is trailing his by a historically whopping margin.
“It’s no wonder that Joe Biden and his thugs are so desperate to stop us, they know that we are the ONLY ONES who can stop them. That’s why they are weaponizing law enforcement for the high level purpose of election interference – which is illegal, by the way,” he explained.
Trump further warned, “Joe Biden and the fascists that control him are the TRUE threat to democracy…all of this persecution is only happening because we’re leading so big in the polls.”
He continued, “They love to talk about democracy, but they’re the ones who are weaponizing the DOJ, the FBI, our elections systems, local DAs…”
Trump joked, “If I fly over a blue state in my plane, I get a subpoena the next day.”
He continued, “They want to SILENCE ME because I will NEVER LET THEM SILENCE YOU.”
