[applause] >> that's a tremendous amount of information we will answer questions, give answers most of them already. you've done a great job. what i thought it would do is jump to personal questions. a voice and intrigued with little anybody like you in my lifetime to keep going and going in spite of negative responses and enforces, how you do it? >> like a bullet to the year. did have two and and and despite

on the stand exposing him the son and in cancer, all over the world that beverly usually with you where it was. i know your children and i have been impressed with their values and lifestyles great job me and you mentioned creating an environment where we can pass it on to our children.

what did you do to make them responsible? >> there's more children. you love them just as much but i have smart children and they have been good but i've always felt, no drugs no alcohol, no spirits. no drug, no alcohol and they fill out ivanka would say stop telling that. i that i will tell it to you every time i see you. i'm going to drive you wild. no drugs, no alcohol and i would say that i hope -- who knows, right? ability to and in many ways,

they tell me and i had a great brother, a wonderful guy but an alcohol problem and he said don't ever drink alcohol. he was -- and he smoked and i put cigarettes and almost that same category but certainly not good for you but i seem, children with the best they got hooked on drugs or alcohol. many of them are dead, many died. the fentanyl coming in, i will get that, president xi jinping by the way and i said you have to impose the maximum penalty

and i would talk about trade. i said we are just not going to get oil and trade. hence i can do things to talk about, i want to do it but and i had a handshake. he was going to impose maximum penalty of people's lives all of it comes mexico and maximum penalty is the death penalty imposed transfer power and so that went down the tubes but one of the first thing, they were going to get the death penalty to anybody in this country and that will solve a lot of the problem. i like saying this but i've seen in a lot of countries, ideal of all of them and i know all of them in the only ones who don't have a drug problem with the ones with the death penalty.

we can set up blue ribbon committee's, and to stop these drug lords who are very smart and people from york and they just want a part of whatever it is. only ones the ones who have the death penalty and what they do to our country. on average, he or she can't male or female will kill 500 people what and the families -- i know families and they have never you talk to them and years latest,

and better? no, it's not worse they tell me and because thinking too much for the american people to go but i will say, the only countries that solve their drug problem, china, i said the first time i met him, i said do you have a drug problem? no, no, no. close to a billion people and why don't you have a drug problem? he says death penalty, quick trial. with a quick trial? the dealer is medially -- they don't have nine years of legal and another nine years. forty-two years later. he said trial what is quick

trial? immediate quick trial they say let's get out of here fast. they don't play games. they even send a bullet. vicious but they have no drug problem. they had a drug problem for centuries poppy fields. countries were taking them on that they were being decimated. stop years ago and it was the death penalty. blue ribbon and madison avenue but i will tell you, it is a waste of time. the only thing that's going to

stop, 19%, that's great but not like they got it done and we work, we had so much security. german shepherd so that millions of dollars for the machinery didn't have a dog in a certain german shepherd, the sense of smell is so incredible, it's nothing michael gerson. we washed it closely and dogs to this incredible, expensive machinery. good, not great but not nearly as good 19% will and that was it with the death penalty, you eradicate drugs in this country and talk about it you think of

it, average of 500 people. everybody in this room knows that's a lot of people when they lost a child a father for her mother, but held, fentanyl and that wouldn't have happened had the death penalty and he will have to tell us they are ready for it because it's a pretty big step. he mentioned abraham accords and israel, this community is one of the largest in the united states. and a thriving large community. your inauguration, what will you do to accelerate the abraham accords in the middle east? what can we do at this time but majority going and going forward? >> it's got to change.

also the abraham accords, but we did that and nobody believed it. we had four important countries early on and we would have had all of them. and i think we would have had every and if you can believe it, i believe it because you and the opportunity and they view it perhaps differently but i would not nearly they do it making good luck neither. new training plea to have the world he. will we are not smart people because it doesn't make sense. there countries going to work and i'd say not going to do business with the united states for centuries of go and killed a

lot of people. crazy but i stopped a lot of people of the abraham accords were important and you have legal rooms which and it should have been any countries right now where i left, we would assign people to do community disease to look for little but they didn't have the tell the administration to do it still in the agreement. it is greatly. named obama, i would have had a nobel prize given ten seconds. got it and didn't even know what he thought four. what did they do? they did know what he did. he got the nobel prize for doing

nothing. i got elected, to. if i think of it, the abraham according not possible, saying one, it was anybody else, liberal will and would have had it before it was as though you and not eliciting for it under saying that there's a lot of unfairness in this world and still you can have peace in the middle east. this was a start, i would have been so important if you could have almost all the countries and maybe even have an. it would be the outlier but maybe even a ramp. could have gotten them all including iran and everybody that she would have had peace in the middle east and arabs getting them with the jews and

everyone else. and they waste list great opportunity, so sad. >> traditionally the students in the audience today so once again and listening, limited finance the year 25-year-old self to give to young people today? >> i met some people backstage for young and they are great people, smart as can be from colleges and schools and i listen to the speech by saying -- they'd really like to say here. they grew up here and then follow. i will say if i implement and i will be able to, when the election is, i would say right

here and follow the grading train because in the area you want to become in this area because of politicians who didn't know what they were doing. let's see what happens in the election in this area will be thriving and probably almost no area in the country, one of the hottest areas in the country and a great job right here in michigan and you want to stay. the tell me backstage, i'd like to stay but there's no real jobs and when you look at oral statistics with the autoworkers and what's happening in the industry but if we win, i would stay here and you'll be happy. he more than any other place in the country will.

bring back the american dream for the young people. >> mr. president, thank you, i'm looking forward to all of the auto plant and the building here in michigan. on tv or on radio, somebody says the president was talking about you again, thank you so much and that is that of our program today, thank you. let's give the resident.

with voters in a town hall but you're watching a live coverage on cspan2. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ welcome to north carolina. >> it is good to be here. i'd like to ask a personality question started off with. you have such a good one and you have such a strong one for the people here in north carolina have been dealing a lot obviously with the hurricane that just came to florida.

we are going to touch on a lot of topics about other things that challenge the american people day in and day out. especially over the last few years. so, you are no stranger. i just saw your socks. [laughter] that that's awesome. >> german shepherd paper big german shepherd family. >> that's awesome. speaking of your personality. [laughter] you are no stranger to having challenges in your life having to dig deep and come through to get where you are today. i would love for you to share with us what it is about your mindset and the tools you used to be able to achieve the great things that you have. >> first of all, thank you for doing this. it is awesome to be here. thank you to north carolina 26

days are going to turn the state read it. god bless you guys. it's a tough question to ask the tough question to answer it's hard to evaluate yourself honestly. yes, i did have a tough life in some ways. my mom struggle with addiction for a big chunk of my early life appeared as raised by my grandmother that we did not have very much money i know it's got a lot of mama lovers out here. i see the book. i think the main thing that allowed me to be able to live in my dreams as we live in the biggest country in the world. i don't think i'm in mind could happen anywhere but in the nine sites of america. i always had a sense of gratitude. my grandmother could not walk for will toward the ends of her life. she died when she was seven years old which then i thought

was old and now it's young. i realize there were so many little ways where, without her love, without her support, without going above and beyond i would not of been here. that recognition, you could let yourself become a victim when times are tough. you could become a little resentful or recognized by the grace of god. and i was able to marry this beautiful woman who is here my lovely wife is with me. everything i want to become a good husband a good dad that was american that was possible she was a very, very interesting in some ways a contradictory person. she was a person of incredibly profound christian faith. never graduate from high school.

she also love the f word. all of things going on with memo at the same time the advice i would give to anybody and i met a young man today praised by his grandmother told me a little bit about a story don't let yourself become a victim however hard your life is meant to be a lot harder but for people that you ought to show gratitude toward it. if you keep the spirit of gratitude i think you will do just fine. >> thank you for sharing that. >> this is a townhouse let's get to some questions. the first question is from adam. how are you senator vance kuester. >> good how you doing? >> good, sorry. the last 14 days we, myself, my fiancé in these awesome behind

us have been delivering supplies all over western north carolina. >> god bless you guys a. [cheering] god bless you all. we love you. we are proud of you and are so grateful to you. [cheering] we've seen everything seem absolute decimation loosing miracles left and right we have probably have had 500 different

volunteers. when america supposed to be. [applause] your two big fears we have. the biggest fear is that when all this is over and becomes a footnote. we don't offer anybody that's left behind after a disaster. in the back trying to rebuild everything they've conversations about the after action of what took place in order for us to understand how we can use the combination of both private sector and public sector funding and efforts to have effective and efficient actions on the ground. to make it more mobile and more agile. more importantly to reinject capitol back into the local economy. so this is my question for the first thing i would like to ask

is this. will you and president trump promised to not forget western north carolina if you and the election? >> will never forget western north carolina. [applause] i do not doubt that you won't. i do not doubt that. the second question is more important. the second question is when can we sit down and have a legitimate conversation by overhauling the process of disaster relief in the united states? >> amen. >> understanding if i may, bureaucratic process of redtape that we have to cut through in order to get the funding directly to the people who need it most. it just simply takes too long. it's not the fault of any individual agency or federal government. [cheering] >> just a second period are we okay?

[inaudible] kamala harris built the platform behind us. that's what happened. [laughter] are a good man? >> you can have my chair if you want. [laughter] go ahead, sir. >> the question is, can we have a conversation about revamping a national disaster strategy so that we can utilize retired veterans and special operation personnel who have been leading the charge hands down in western north carolina pretty effectively provide food supply at medical aid and assistance to thousands of lives and revamping a national strategy in the united states to make it more effective. >> that is a big question. and let me just say, i want to reiterate donald trump and i know the appalachian region of

our country, western north carolina, east, east kentucky, southwest virginia, has been left behind and forgotten. we are not one to do it there were not going to do in response to this disaster we are never going to let the people of that region or country -- make the region really built our country were never going to let them be left behind or forgotten for a promise that to you. let me just say about the disaster response. first of all i want to thank you all for everything that you did. the private relief agencies. the charities, the good samaritans who did their jobs. god bless you guys we should all be proud of them. be a lot worse without them. i think it now hopefully we are moving to the stage we are trying to rebuild as opposed to just recover from still recovering a little bit that's an unfortunate tragedy here. once we get past that, health of

the next few days and gotten everybody saved everybody can save us time to focus on the disastrous federal response to this incredible crisis. what i have learned is look, you have the hurricane. western north carolina is underwater. what should have happened as the president and vice president should ascend the second airborne to north condit that day. and instead the president's speech of vice president at a fundraiser in san francisco. what you need in times like this is you just need leadership. sir, you put it so well. one agency there's a lot of people working on the federal effort that are doing a good job are the best they can breed the print theproblem is all the burc incompetence. i was talking with elon musk

about this a few days ago for elon by the way, was a centerleft democrat for your seo notes got dark maga hat. doctor guy his fist off about government incompetence. you've got the faa per you've got fema pretty got these relief agencies. you've got people who have been trained by the government of a bureaucracy at their job is not to cut the bs to help people is to basically act like the dmv. and unfortunately what that means in this case is you got a lot of people who could've been helped. a lot of lives that could've been saved that weren't true. i'm sure were going to learn a lot about how corrupt and incompetent our government is. i am sorry, think about this. in 2010 the terrible earthquake

and port-au-prince, haiti for the 82nd airborne was there two days later. two days later. eighty-second airborne is an hour away from western north carolina it took six days to get them there. that does not happen without failure of leadership. got to the bottom exactly with the failure of leadership look like. the final thing i will say, sir, is the only way to fix this is by accountability. eschewing the private sector. through the public sector. if you do not have accountability and others if you don't fire the people screwed up it will never get better. what is fundamentally. [cheering] [applause] what's fundamentally different of the leadership style of kamala harris and donald trump, i went donald trump got famous singer fired but he believes in count building our government. kamala harris just doesn't. this attitude to go long to get along pretty screwed up i may be a got people kd
