1 00:00:00,170 --> 00:00:07,719 We face a hostile ideology, global in scope, atheistic in character 2 00:00:07,769 --> 00:00:13,720 , ruthless in purpose, and insidious in method. 3 00:00:13,890 --> 00:00:20,899 Unhappily, the danger it poses promises to be of indefinite duration. 4 00:00:21,070 --> 00:00:27,660 To meet it successfully, there is call for not so much the emotional and transitory 5 00:00:27,660 --> 00:00:34,280 sacrifices of crisis, but rather those which enable us to carry forward steadily, surely 6 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:42,200 , and without complaint, the burdens of a prolonged and complex struggle with libert... 7 00:00:42,369 --> 00:00:51,060 The very word secrecy is repugnant in a free and open society. 8 00:00:51,229 --> 00:00:57,759 Today no war has been declared, and however fierce the struggle may be, 9 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:04,609 it may never be declared in the traditional fashion. If you are awaiting a finding of... 10 00:01:04,609 --> 00:01:12,540 present danger, then I can only say that the danger has never been more clear and its... 11 00:01:12,709 --> 00:01:18,989 For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy. 12 00:01:19,170 --> 00:01:25,700 It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the 13 00:01:25,709 --> 00:01:32,370 building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic 14 00:01:32,370 --> 00:01:39,159 , intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations. You and I are told 15 00:01:39,159 --> 00:01:46,750 increasingly we have to choose between a left or right. Well, I'd like to suggest there ... 16 00:01:46,930 --> 00:01:53,430 There's only an up or down. I think it's time we ask ourselves if we still know the... 17 00:01:53,430 --> 00:01:59,989 were intended for us by the founding fathers. We're at war with the most dangerous enemy... 18 00:01:59,989 --> 00:02:06,840 his long climb from the swamp to the stars. If we lose freedom here, there's no place ... 19 00:02:07,010 --> 00:02:13,669 This is the last stand on Earth. We'll preserve for our children this, the last b... 20 00:02:13,669 --> 00:02:17,780 , or we'll sentence them to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness. 21 00:02:19,469 --> 00:02:24,879 In my former life, I was an insider as much as anybody else. 22 00:02:25,050 --> 00:02:31,629 Now I'm being punished for leaving the special club and revealing to you the 23 00:02:31,629 --> 00:02:36,479 terrible things that are going on having to do with our country. 24 00:02:36,650 --> 00:02:45,050 There is nothing the political establishment will not do, No lie that they won't tell. 25 00:02:45,050 --> 00:02:53,009 To hold their prestige and power at your expense. That's what's been happening. 26 00:02:53,009 --> 00:03:02,740 Their financial resources are virtually unlimited. Their political resources are... 27 00:03:02,740 --> 00:03:09,849 Their media resources are unmatched. And most importantly, the depths 28 00:03:09,849 --> 00:03:17,669 of their immorality is absolutely unlimited. For them, it's a war. 29 00:03:17,849 --> 00:03:22,699 And for them, nothing at all is out of bounds. 30 00:03:22,870 --> 00:03:29,870 This is a struggle for the survival of our nation. The corrupt 31 00:03:29,870 --> 00:03:38,199 establishment knows that we are a great threat to their criminal enterprise. 32 00:03:38,370 --> 00:03:45,240 They know that if we win, their power is gone and it's returned to you, the people. 33 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:51,960 We'll be. The corrupt political establishment is a machine. 34 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:57,439 It has no soul. I knew these false attacks would come. 35 00:03:57,539 --> 00:04:02,719 I knew this day would arrive. It's only a question of when. 36 00:04:02,719 --> 00:04:09,819 This is not simply another four-year election. This is a crossroads in the history 37 00:04:09,819 --> 00:04:16,620 of our civilization that will determine whether or not we, the people, reclaim 38 00:04:16,620 --> 00:04:23,600 control over our government. The only thing that can stop this 39 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:31,959 corrupt machine is you. The only force strong enough to save our country is us. 40 00:04:32,089 --> 00:04:38,139 I take all of these slings and arrows gladly for you. 41 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:43,819 I take them for our movement so that we can have our country back. 42 00:04:45,589 --> 00:04:52,180 Our great civilization here in America and across the civilized world has come upon 43 00:04:52,180 --> 00:04:58,850 a moment of reckoning. I'm doing this for the people and for the movement 44 00:04:58,850 --> 00:05:06,899 , and we will take back this country for you, and we will make America great again. 45 00:05:07,069 --> 00:05:14,860 Our campaign represents a true existential threat. 46 00:05:15,589 --> 00:05:22,540 It's a movement the likes of which we have never in history in this 47 00:05:22,540 --> 00:05:28,040 country seen before. Never in history. I'm a wartime president. 48 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:32,420 It's a war. It's a war. Different kind of a war than we've ever had. 49 00:05:32,519 --> 00:05:37,410 I know that this is a challenging time for all Americans. 50 00:05:37,589 --> 00:05:44,779 We're enduring a great national trial, and we will prove that we can meet the moment. 51 00:05:44,850 --> 00:05:51,600 I want to assure the American people that we're doing everything we can each day to... 52 00:05:51,620 --> 00:05:55,470 defeat this horrible, invisible enemy. We're at war. 53 00:05:55,470 --> 00:05:59,839 In a true sense, we're at war, and we're fighting an invisible enemy. 54 00:06:00,009 --> 00:06:10,019 Our Independence Day is at hand. People should 55 00:06:10,019 --> 00:06:17,019 not be afraid of their governments. 56 00:06:17,189 --> 00:06:24,699 Governments should be afraid of their people. The American populace is facing an... 57 00:06:24,699 --> 00:06:31,500 warfare scenario. This is information warfare. 58 00:06:37,589 --> 00:06:40,439 Thank you.
