[applause] pres. trump: tremendous incentives. proudlymore products stand with those four you for words -- four beautiful words, "made in the usa." right? "made in the usa." finally, our framework encourages american companies to bring back the trillions and trillions of dollars in wealth that is parked overseas. ,ur current tax system trillions. and by the way, for years, i have been hearing it is $2.5 trillion. i assume it is much more. to do it and want recovered want to do it. who does not want to do it? but they cannot do it because it is so restrictive and the patches are so ridiculous, so they cannot do it. the money stays in other countries, invested other countries, and we want to bring it back. it is one of the few things. democrats want it and republicans want it. they both want it, and yet for years, they have not been able to do it. now, we are doing it. we are doing things.
