1:00 am
and i want to thank the fire marshals. they have a lot of people standing outside. we really maxed out. we broke the all—time record for this arena. how old is this arena? we broke the all-time record. you are listening to president donald trump addressing supporters ata donald trump addressing supporters at a rally in pennsylvania. a swing state he won in the election last year. state he won in the election last yea r. let's state he won in the election last year. let's continue to listen into the president as he marks his 100 daysin the president as he marks his 100 days in office. pretty soon they will only be on internet. the paper is getting smaller and smaller. you ever notice? starting to look like a comic look. but i will tell you, because i watched and i used to be in the real estate business, they sold their beautiful new york times building in manhattan. a cathedral to journalism. building in manhattan. a cathedral tojournalism. such a beautiful, beautiful building. for around $130 million and a group that bought it later sold it for approximately $500
1:01 am
million and now they live in a very ugly office building in a crummy location. next day by the boston globe newspaper, with lawsuits for $1.3 billion, invest millions and millions of dollars to get it going and in the end they sell it for zero. they give it away. and then they write nasty editorials, telling me how i should be handling world events in our country. tell me! but that's what we have. incompetent, dishonest people who after an election had to apologise because they covered it, as, me, but all of us. they covered it, as, me, but all of us. they covered it so badly that
1:02 am
they felt they were forced to apologise because their predictions we re apologise because their predictions were so apologise because their predictions were so bad. do you remember their predictions? they lost a lot of people because of the way they covered it. if the media'sjob is to be honest and tell the truth, then i think we would all agree the media deserves a very, very big fat, failing grade. very dishonest people. not all of them. we call it the fake news. not all of them. now everybody is using the word fake news. where did you hear it first, folks? by contrast, for the last 100 days, my administration has been delivering every single day for the
1:03 am
great citizens of our country, whether it is putting our coal miners back to work, protecting america's steel and eliminating —— aluminium workers, or eliminating job killing regulations, we are keeping one promise after another and frankly the people are really happy about it. they see what's happening. but to understand the historic progress that we've made, we must speak honestly about the situation that we and i inherited, because, believe me, the previous administration gave as a mass. for decades our country has lived
1:04 am
through the greatestjobs theft in the history of the world. you people know it better than anybody in pennsylvania. factories were shuttered, our steel mills closed down and ourjobs were stolen away and ship the faraway to other countries, some of which you've never even heard of. politicians said the troops to protect the borders of foreign nations, but left america's border is wide open for all to violate. we've spent billions and billions of dollars on one global project after another and yet, as gangs flooded into our country, we couldn't even provide safety for our own people. how government rushed to join international agreements, where the united states pays the cost and there's the burdens, while other
1:05 am
countries get the benefits and pay nothing. this includes deals like the one—sided parous climate accord —— paris. where the united states pays billions of dollars, while china, russia and india have contributed and will contribute nothing. does that remind you of the iran deal? how about that beauty, right? 0n iran deal? how about that beauty, right? on top of all that, it is estimated that full compliance with the agreement could ultimately shrink america's gdp by $2.5 trillion over a 10—year period. that means factories and plants closing all over the country. here we go again. not with me, folks! those are
1:06 am
the facts whether we like it or not. the dishonest media won't print them all report them because the washington media is part of the problem. their priorities are not my priorities and they are not your priorities. there agenda is not your agenda and i will be making a big decision on the paris accord over the next two weeks and we will see what happens. but they're all part ofa what happens. but they're all part of a broken system that has profited from this global theft and plunder of american wealth at the expense of the american worker. we are not
1:07 am
going to let other countries take advantage of us any more, because from now on it's going to be america's first. and i have to... usa! usa! usa! usa! and i have to just interject, because as you know i've been critical of china and i've been talking about currency manipulation for a long time and i have to tell you that during the election number one they stopped but more importantly, just to show you the dishonesty, so we have currency manipulation by china, but china is helping us possibly or probably with
1:08 am
the north korean situation. which is a great team. and i met with the president of china at great length in florida and we have long talks, hours and hours. he is a good man. now he is representing china, not oui’s. now he is representing china, not ours. what is a good man. i believe he wants to get that situation taken ca re he wants to get that situation taken care of. they have tremendous power and we will see what happens. but the media said, donald trump refuses to name china currency manipulator. inc of this. think of this. we have to have a little flexibility. so i meet with the president of china and i say, could you help us out with north korea? i say, could you help us out with north korea ? you i say, could you help us out with north korea? you give them 93% of their different materials that they need, their food, you their different materials that they need, theirfood, you have a lot of
1:09 am
power. we have a great relationship. and then the media said, why didn't he called donald trump and why didn't donald trump at a meeting say, you're a currency nicoletta? here is the story. listen! mr president, will you help us out with north korea? but, by the way, you're manipulating your currency. doesn't work, right? you understand. so instead of saying that, let's see what happens. i honestly believe that he is trying very hard. not an easy situation for china, believe me. not an easy situation. but we have somebody there who is causing a lot of trouble for the world. we have china who is really trying to help, as you've seen. they've sent back vast amount of call coming out of north korea. so let's see what
1:10 am
happens and i think it's not exactly the right time to call china currency manipulator right now. do we agree with that? but they never say that. they say, why didn't he do it? so i promise you in my inaugural address, 100 days ago, that now arrives the hour of action and we have, believe me, started from day one and that is what we've delivered. 100 days of action. in fa ct, delivered. 100 days of action. in fact, those people and others are exhausted. they've never seen anything like that. they've never seen anything like that. they've never seen anything like this. we are ending the off shoring and bringing back our beautiful, wonderful, great americanjobs. we
1:11 am
back our beautiful, wonderful, great american jobs. we are eradicating the criminal gangs and cartels that have infiltrated our country. you are reading about them all the time. some of you have big problems with them. thank you for that sign. blacks for trump, i love that guy. thank you. thank you. thank you, man. that's great. that's really cool man. that's great. that's really cool, i appreciate it. and we're taking steps to renegotiate or cancel any agreement that fails to protect american interests. here are just some of the great achievements from the first 100 days and i will tell you, in addition to that, we have built such strong foundations with the leaders of foreign countries and we're set to rock, but we have great relationships with germany and japan and china and so
1:12 am
many others. the uk, such great relationships. that's part of the process. we've appointed and confirmed a brand—new justice process. we've appointed and confirmed a brand—newjustice of the united states supreme court. just as neil gorsuch will uphold the cost right of americans to governor read affairs and the last time the new supreme courtjustice was confirmed in the first 100 days was 136 years ago in 1881 and i was devastated to hear that because i thought i would be the only one to have done that! a long time ago. to protect ourjobs
1:13 am
and our economic freedom, i immediately withdrew the united states from the horrible, disastrous, would have been another matter but worse, trans—pacific partnership. that would have taken yourjobs in pennsylvania, that i can tell you. that was a total hoax. the dpp would have been a tremendous disaster for our country and we are not going to surrender pennsylvania jobs ever again. we've done that once before. it's not going to happen. we'vejust launched an investigation into foreign steel dumping and aluminium dumping throughout the country. we are reviewing every single trade deal and wherever there is cheating
1:14 am
we will take immediate action and there will be penalties. and we have with us tonight secretary of commerce wilbur ross and one of the great, great people on fair trade and trade, peter navarro. thank you. thank you. and will renegotiate nafta. and if we don't get a good deal and a fair dealfor we don't get a good deal and a fair deal for our we don't get a good deal and a fair dealfor our country, we don't get a good deal and a fair deal for our country, and they have been saying for a long time, we will either renegotiate or we will terminate. i announced the other day we are going to terminate. arab reddy said we will terminate. the people that i like very much, that the president of mexico, and the prime minister of canada, they called up and said can we negotiate? isaid called up and said can we negotiate? i said yes. so will start a
1:15 am
renegotiation, and hopefully it will be there for everybody. and if it is not a be there for everybody. and if it is notafair be there for everybody. and if it is not a fair dealfor our be there for everybody. and if it is not a fair deal for our country, because you have to understand, we have been on the wrong side of the nafta deal with canada and with mexico for many, many years. many decades. we cannot allow it to happen. so we are going to renegotiate, and we can't make a fair deal for our companies and our workers, we will terminate, 0k? 0ur directors will put brand—new pennsylvania steel into the spine of america. we have ordered billions and billions of dollars in unpaid duties to be collected at the border from countries that break the rules, and that just started.
1:16 am
from countries that break the rules, and thatjust started. there is then to bea and thatjust started. there is then to be a lot coming in. cheering. we just want fairness. and i followed through on my promise and issued a new government directive to buy american and higher american. new government directive to buy american and higheramerican. —— hire. injust these american and higheramerican. —— hire. in just these first few months, we have created 99,000 new constructionjobs, 119,000 new manufacturing jobs, and 27,000 new mining jobs. who are the miners here? the vine is —— the miners, finally, we are taking care of them. we love our miners. and we have over 600,000 newjobs. and by the way, the stock market, since our election, is through the roof. i
1:17 am
believe from the point of the election, isn't it too bad that the 0bama administration gets a lot of credit for those couple of months? but it is all right. booing. but to get credit because people went wild with the stock. i believe we have a record from the time that we got elected, from november eight. we have a record, an all—time record, for the biggest increase the stock market. so i am very happy about that. —— increase in the stock market. we have removed the shackles on energy exploration imposed by the last administration, lifting the restrictions on the production of oil, shale, and natural gas. and importantly, for pennsylvania, we have ended the war on beautiful, clea n have ended the war on beautiful, clean coal, and we are putting our
1:18 am
great coal miners back to work. we love our miners. i am also very pleased to say that we have finally cleared the way for the construction of the keystone xl and dakota access pipeline. 118,000 newjobs. —— pipelines. they could not get their approvals. we got those approvals in 24 approvals. we got those approvals in 2a hours. 0ne approvals. we got those approvals in 2a hours. one day. and i want to tell you, the heads of those two companies, they did not know what the hell happened. they said how did this happen? they should go to bed and say their prayers. but that is going to be approximately 118,000 jobs. my administration has also

military general, john kelly, to lead the department of homeland security. since my election, we have already achieved an unprecedented 73% reduction in illegal crossings on our southern border. the greatest reduction in the history of our country, and we just started. the world is getting the message: if you try to illegally enter the united states, and you will be caught, detained, deported, or put in prison, and it will happen. as i
