“In the American dream, the pie doesn\u2019t shrink. The pie is always growing, the pie has always grown, and your opportunity for your piece of that pie, whatever size you can slice, is yours for the taking. That\u2019s been the American dream. But the pie is shrinking; and as it shrinks, you\u2019re told to expect less, you\u2019re told to have lower expectations.” <\/p>\n

 “Black Lives Matter is simply the effort to keep Occupy Wall Street alive. Occupy Wall Street was a fake, drummed-up organization in response to the Tea Party — and because it was fake, because it was not organic (meaning not rooted in reality), because it was manufactured and created, it lost its steam.”<\/p>\n

“Do you think the country\u2019s headed in the wrong direction, folks? If you do, you are right. If you don\u2019t think the country\u2019s headed in the wrong direction, you\u2019re wrong. We are headed in the wrong direction. Our country is in serious decline.”<\/p>\n

“American socialism features American feminism, and yet look at how it bows down to other religions which really mistreat and disrespect women. Does that not register with anybody else? Or is it something you\u2019re not supposed to say?”<\/p>\n

“The establishment, I don\u2019t care whether it\u2019s made up of Republicans or Democrats, the establishment comes first. Ruling class versus us country class. And many Republican establishment members have made clear that they put the establishment and its primacy over party politics, and even over where the direction the country is headed.”<\/p>\n

“Obama still can\u2019t get above one and a half percent, and his is going to be the first Regime never to have even one quarter of 3% economic growth, the first in the post-war era. It\u2019s never been done before. No president has ever produced economic policies this pathetic.”<\/p>\n

“Wages haven\u2019t gone up in 15 years. People are angrier than ever before. None of this is normal! None of this is cyclical. This is not the result of cycles that repeat throughout history, either economic or cultural. Our country right now is in the middle of a purposeful transformation that is the result of specific policy decisions that have been made and implemented in recent years.”<\/p>\n

“This administration has written and attached more regulations on individuals and businesses than the three previous administrations combined. It\u2019s out of control.”<\/p>\n

“Black Lives Matter is about the total upheaval of the American society, the American social structure, just flooding it with complaints and demands for money and just overwhelming it to the point that it can\u2019t survive, requiring a ‘reset.'”<\/p>\n

“There always will be an America. It\u2019s what America is that\u2019s at stake.”<\/p>\n

“Of all the things that have happened at the Olympics, that\u2019s what Hillary wants to tweet out? ‘In Rio, Olympic fencer Ibtihaj Muhammad became the first American Muslim athlete to compete while wearing a hijab.'”<\/p>\n

“We do not need a woman as president who has sold access to her presidency in advance already.”<\/p>\n

“There is something that we haven\u2019t been told about why we were in Benghazi in the first place, because every other nation had pulled out. It was a hellhole. It was pure anarchy. After Khadafy was taken out by virtue of Hillary\u2019s policy, the place was total anarchy.”<\/p>\n

“We are in heap big doo-doo if the productivity of American workers is a matter of congressional action and not individual effort. If this isn\u2019t rooted in education, individual effort, ambition, desire, pursuit of excellence, that\u2019s what creates economic growth. That\u2019s what creates growing markets, not government policy.”    <\/p>\n

“The only government policy that creates growing economic markets is a government policy that gets government out of the way.”<\/p>\n

“The real secret is that people from Barack Obama to Hillary Clinton don\u2019t want you independently productive because then there\u2019s no need for you to depend on a Big Government for whatever you don\u2019t have. They want to keep you permanently dependent. They want to keep you permanently underemployed, underpaid. That is the policy.”<\/p>\n

“No matter what the Democrats do, no matter what their policies are, no matter how wonderful they may look, the result is always the same. Bigger government, more inefficient and more ineffective government, a smaller overall United States economy, growing at a slower and slower rate, which means fewer jobs being created, fewer careers are being created, wages and compensation are not increasing because the pie is shrinking.”<\/p>\n

“The Democrat Party is gonna give you a built-in excuse for constant failure, which is what they\u2019re doing when they tell you the best days are behind us, that the America that you\u2019ve read about, you heard about, it was never real in the first place. It was always artificial and we\u2019re now really just having to come to grips with that, pay the bill for all that fake and phony economic activity in the past.”<\/p>\n

“This current economy, our current cultural circumstances, the decline, the rot, the overwhelming corruption, it is not necessary. It does not have to happen. It does not need to continue. It is not the new norm.”<\/p>\n

“You can change the direction this country is going. You can be instrumentally involved in changing the direction of this country because the country is nothing more than the product of its people.”<\/p>\n
