In a lengthy one-and-a-half-hour speech concluding the Conservative Conference on Political Action on Sunday night, former President Donald Trump delivered a speech filled with much of the same false false election fraud he has repeated since the election to President Joe Biden in November lost. .
His false claims that the election is ‘knee-jerk’ are what Democrats and many others have said led to the deadly attack on the Capitol that his supporters did not carry out even two months ago, leading to his second accusation.
During his first speech since leaving office in January, Trump also tried to reaffirm his grip on the Republican Party and portray a sense of unity – a message that was immediately thwarted by the fact that he also repeatedly targeted members of his own party, including at one point a list of every Republican who supported accusing him of his role in inciting the Capitol attack, which the former president did not address.
Trump also painted a frightening and terrifying portrait of America under the Biden government during his speech Sunday.
He also continued to tease a run through the course of the speech in 2024, rejecting the idea of starting a third party, spitting out Biden’s immigration policy in typical harsh and sometimes malicious ways, dr. Anthony Fauci attacked and finally told his fans. the “only way” to help Republicans win is to donate to his Super PAC.
TRUMP PRESSS FALSE ELECTION CLAIMS
During his speech, Trump dug into his election grievances, accusing Democrats of using the deadly COVID-19 pandemic to “cheat” the election, and repeatedly hammered the Supreme Court for failing to intervene and overturn the results.
“This election was over, and the Supreme Court and other courts did not want to do anything about it,” Trump said, making the crowd sing out loud, “You won, you won,” to which Trump responded, “We did. “
“They rejected it,” Trump continued, attacking the Supreme Court. “They should be ashamed of themselves for what they have done to our country. They did not have the courage or the courage to make the right decision. ”
While some in the Republican Party had hoped that the former president would move on from 2020, Trump quickly made it clear that he intended to continue the false elections well into the future, and many of the same voiced demands he made , to the deadly Capitol attack on January 6th.
TRUMP GOES TO TIME 2024 RUN
As he has done since leaving office, Trump continued to tease a run in 2024 – without explicitly announcing a run.
‘As you know, they just lost the White House, but that’s one of the things. But who knows, who knows? I might even decide to beat them a third time, okay? Trump said to the cheers and cheers of “the US” and “four more years”.
“With your help, we will take back the House, we will win the Senate and then a Republican president will make a triumphant return to the White House,” Trump told CPAC Sunday. “And I wonder who it will be. I wonder who it will be. Who, who, who will it be, I wonder? ‘
SLAMS COMMANDMENT AS ‘AMERICA LAST’
Trump also swung out against Biden – an unprecedented move by a former president who was just over a month out of office – and the president’s government on topics ranging from COVID-19 and the closure of schools to energy and immigration policy.
‘Joe Biden has had the most disastrous first month of any president in modern history. That is true, ”he said. ‘The Biden government has already proven that they are anti-work, anti-family, anti-border, anti-energy, anti-women and anti-science. In just one short month, we have gone from ‘America first’ to ‘America last’. ”
The former president called on Biden to “open the schools and keep them open now”, calling closures “a scandal of the highest order and one of the most heinous acts of any president in our lifetime.”
However, most schools have been closed to personal learning for almost a year, when they first closed doors under Trump. In addition, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released guidelines two weeks ago on how to open schools safely.
Anthony Fauci, now Biden’s chief medical adviser on COVID-19, with whom Trump shared a rocky relationship.
‘First, Fauci said you need no masks, no masks, no stuff. Then all of a sudden – now he wants double masks, “Trump said.
TRUMP TOUTS ‘TRUMPISM’
Trump spoke about the future of the Republican Party and drew differences among Democrats, saying his movement “is based on love for America and the belief that it is an extraordinary nation blessed by God.”
He also said he heard the term “Trumpism” a lot and defined it as “good deals” and “strong boundaries”.
‘Many people ask what is Trumpism? A new term is being used more and more. I hear the term more and more. “I did not think of it,” Trump said with a smile. “But what it means is good deals, good trade deals.”
‘It means no riots in the streets. That means law enforcement. “This means a very strong protection for the Second Amendment and the right to keep and carry weapons,” he said, seven weeks after the deadly attack on the American Capitol.
TRUMP REJECT IDEA OF A NEW PARTY, ATTACK NEXT SUPPORT MEMBERS
Trump has said he is “not interested” in starting new parties, despite some news reports that he says he is considering leaving the GOP.
He also confirmed his place at the top of the party.
“We have the Republican Party,” Trump said to roaring applause. “It’s going to be united and stronger than ever before. I’m not starting a new party. It was fake news. False news, no. Wouldn’t that be brilliant? “Let’s start a new party, let’s split our vote so you can never win.” No, we are not interested in that. ”
While the former president was simultaneously trying to insist that the Republican Party be ‘united’, he also continued his revenge series and listed the names of the Republicans who voted for accusation as an evil of the crowd.
“The Democrats do not have bigwigs like Mitt Romney, little Ben Sasse, Richard Burr, Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Pat Toomey. And in the House, Tom Rice, South Carolina, Adam Kinzinger, Dan Newhouse, Anthony Gonzalez – it’s another beauty – Fred Upton, Jamie Herrera Beutler, Peter Meyer, John Katko, David Valadao and the warmonger, a person who loves to see our troops fight: Liz Cheney. ‘
