Trump's full Denton address Paxton, trucks and war

Dec 2, 2023

Donald Trump speaks at Peterbilt's Denton plant, praising its trucks, reported expansion and production of 200 trucks a day. He credits his policies with prosperity, claims record employment, income, poverty and stock-market figures, defends his inflation management and asserts $21 trillion of investment. He urges Ken Paxton's election, praises his loyalty, attacks Paxton's unnamed Democratic opponent and says Republican votes are needed to protect his agenda. He recalls campaigning, disputes the credited size of his presidential-election vote and alleges cheating in Spencer Pratt's Los Angeles mayoral defeat. His Oklahoma visit remains prospective in this recording. Trump recounts the U.S. capture of Maduro, describing armed entry, rapid seizure and no U.S. deaths. He describes the operation as approximately 48 minutes, later using one day as shorthand, and claims the United States took over Venezuela and tremendous wealth. He says an unnamed severely wounded Chinook pilot landed troops safely and received the Medal of Honor. He claims Venezuelan oil is reaching U.S. refineries and says he plans inexpensive strategic-reserve replenishment. He justifies the Iran war by alleging Iran was weeks from a nuclear weapon, claims severe military and economic damage and a successful U.S. blockade, forecasts victory around the election and warns Iran to make a proper deal or not remain around long. His oil-flow, military, nuclear and price assertions are his account, including his qualification that Iran probably would have attacked. He praises tariffs, claims improved manufacturing wages, jobs and truck shipments, labels climate change a scam and asserts cooling and record ice. He says fuel-emissions standards were terminated and a nitrogen-oxide rollback will save about $6,000 per truck. He urges data-center companies to benefit host communities through dividends, citing claimed $50,000 teacher and $10,000 resident payments. He describes a White House company meeting as yesterday; the recording supplies no documentary date or proof of payments. Events manager Sarah Renshaw describes 65 collective family employment years and a third generation at Peterbilt, crediting Trump's tariffs with higher production and 1,000 hires including her son. Assistant plant manager Phillip Juarez recounts 25 years at the company and multiple relatives' service, says its trucks are made and sold in America, and credits good jobs with employees' achievements. Trump also recounts an endorsement of Brandon Gill requested by Dinesh D'Souza and attributes comparative health praise and a diet-related longevity joke to Ronny Jackson. He praises guests, describes border removals and claims seventeen months without illegal crossings, then recalls tax relief for tips, overtime, seniors and car-loan interest and warns Democratic gains would reverse it. The economic results, historical quotations, accusations, policy effects and forecasts remain attributed; the recording establishes no election outcome, delivered universal dividend or current medical finding.

Trump's October 1 retrospective recounts endorsing Brandon Gill for Congress after Gill's father-in-law Dinesh D'Souza requested his support. Trump says he initially hesitated, looked at Gill's photograph, spoke with him and endorsed him, and characterizes the subsequent campaign as a rocket ship. The endorsement is dated December 2, 2023; the private conversations are not separately dated or independently recorded here. His assessment of Gill and the endorsement's effect remains attributed.
