RUSH EXCERPT:
TRUMP: "American patriots have always revered and respected this great Italian explorer perhaps the first ever Italian American If you look at it probably he was the first Italian American Early settlers called the 13 Colli- Colonies Columbia and eventually we named the District of Columbia in his honor And that, there’s a lot of people don’t put them together but that’s how it all happened Yet, as you know, the radical left communists hate Columbus and they want to abolish Columbus Day They’re still trying very hard You know, this guy I call him Mohammed Al-Fayed Some people call him Abdul I call him Mohammed Somebody said, why? I said, I don’t know I feel like it But he wants to abolish Columbus Day He wants the, no reference to can you believe it? So we have people that These lunatics that are running they’re all against Christopher Columbus but I’ll tell you what we’re going to be here almost two and a half years. He’s going to be so he’s going to be so protected like nobody’s ever been protected before because they want to tear down the history and heritage that makes us who we are. Not only Columbus I mean we had a time when they wanted to rip down the statue of Abraham Lincoln That was about the end That was nice Now we’ve had pay dirt you know They wanted to, because they thought he was a racist but he’s the one that freed the country We, he’s the one, when you talk slavery you talk about Lincoln the job he did George Washington they’ve taken the name of George Washington off schools Many schools, Washington, George Washington High They take the name of George Washington off But, these are different days now Now we don’t do that anymore We do that, you go you get your You yourself in big trouble you play those games So we protect Lincoln we protect Washington, we protect Thomas Jefferson They wanted to rip down Thomas Jefferson’s memorial I was there, actually and I’ve signed a law that was a very powerful law. It was in 1900 when we had really strong laws You know, today, if you get two days in jail today you can do almost anything nothing happens But we, we’re changing that, you see that"
