President Donald Trump spoke at The Wild Protest Rally on Wednesday, January 6, 2021, at The Ellipse in Washington, D.C. Here is President Trump’s speech.
What He Talked About
Some things from President Trump’s speech on January 6th was the media, Vice President Mike Pence doing the right thing, changes in federal voting, and illegal voting, among others.
The Media
President Trump said that the media is the worst problem the U.S. has.
The media is the biggest problem we have as far as I’m concerned, single biggest problem, the fake news and the big tech. [1]
He further went on to say,
Our media is not free. It’s not fair. It suppresses thought. It suppresses speech, and it’s become the enemy of the people. It’s become the enemy of the people. It’s the biggest problem we have in this country. [2]
VP Mike Pence
Mr. Trump said in his speech that he hoped Vice President Mike Pence would do the right thing in accepting or not accepting the electoral college votes.
All Vice-President Pence has to do is send it back to the States to recertify, and we become president, and you are the happiest people. [3]
Change In Voting
President Donald Trump said that only the state legislature can change the federal elections.
So just in a nutshell, you can’t make a change on voting for a federal election unless the state legislature approves it. No judge can do it. Nobody can do it, only a legislature. [4]
Illegal Voting
President Trump explained some of the votes counted, both legal and illegal. Some of the states he talked about was Pennsylvania, Georgia, and Arizona, among others.
So in Pennsylvania you had 205,000 more votes than you had voters…And this is a mathematical impossibility, unless you want to say it’s a total fraud. [5]
He went on to talk about Wisconsin and their votes.
In addition, over 170,000 absentee votes were counted in Wisconsin without a valid absentee ballot application. So they had a vote, but they had no application. And that’s illegal in Wisconsin. [6]
Giving Strength To The Congress
Closing his specch, Mr. Trump said as follows:
But we’re going to try and give our Republicans, the weak ones, because the strong ones don’t need any of our help, we’re going to try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country. [7]
Closing Out
President Trump closed out his speech with this,
So let’s walk down Pennsylvania Avenue. I want to thank you all. God bless you and God bless America. Thank you all for being here, this is incredible. Thank you very much. [8]
