Tonight in Cleveland Donald Trump accepted the Republican nomination. He wasn’t my first choice, but I don’t care much for Gary Johnson and cannot stand Hillary Clinton. That said, I watched the acceptance speech and thought it would be good to have a record of ‘The Plan’ he rolled out tonight and some tidbits along the way.
Also for any who were supposed to watch and didn’t for summer school, maybe you will find my notes helpful. Or of course you can watch approximately 4 hours of speeches here on youtube:

Donald J Trump’s – Acceptance of Nomination Speech (my rough notes)
July 21, 2016
The Plan
- Put America first
- Americanism not globalism will be our credo
- American people will come first
- Safety at home
- Law and order
- Rebuild America – jobs and economy
- Big business major donors media not happy – losing control (cronyism at work)
- Things must change and now
- Horrible Trade deals forgotten people – no longer
- No patience for injustice
- Great police
- No tolerance for government injustice
- Corruption will not be tolerated in administration (example HC – careless / negligent / crimes)
- Nobody knows the system better than me – I can fix it starting with bad trade deals (reaching out to Bernie Sanders) to bring fairness and justice to all Americans
- Suspend immigration from suspect terrorist countries until vetting mechanisms in place
- We will build a great border wall to stop illegal immigration to stop the drugs and gangs from pouring in – enforcement from border control officers (ending catch and release programs)
- Overstaying visas will stop
- Americans will wake up in a country where the laws are enforced – considerate and compassionate to everyone but greatest compassion will be for our own!
- Oath of office
- Will make country rich again with the greatest business people in the world – bad trade agreements will be turned into great trade agreements
- Will bring back jobs to this country undoing NAFTA ramifications
- Reform of tax laws – largest tax reduction of any candidate this year / simplified for everyone!
- Regulations – ending excessive regulations fast by lifting restrictions on production of energy (steel workers and miners going back to work again)
- Millions of more jobs
- Rescue kids by sending them to a safe school of their choice
- Repeal and replace disastrous Obamacare – chose your own doctor again
- We will fix TSA at the airports which is a total disaster
- We will work with student debt and take the pressure off
- We will rebuild our depleted military (big cheer)
- Countries we are protecting will be asked to pay their fair share
- We will take care of our veterans like they have never been taken care of before. Those who served will be able to see the doctor of their choice with no waiting
- We will eliminate wasteful spending in first 100 days
- Appoint justices who will uphold laws and constitution
- Replacement of Scalia will be someone of similar philosophy
- Endorsed by NRA – supports second amendment
- Evangelicals – thanks (undeserved and appreciated) – very sincere – speaking your minds in your own pulpits / will work hard to repeal that language without threat of tax exempt status
- Start believing – America is back bigger and better and stronger than before

These things were mentioned in the midst of the list above:
Vice President – Mike Pence of Indiana
Christian – Conservative – Republican (in that order)
Kudos to all of his family – specially the ones who spoke at the convention
Task – to liberate USA from crime and terrorism in our communities — because an attack on law enforcement is an attack on all Americans. We must restore law and order – will work with and appoint best and brightest to get the job properly done (side shot to Rudy Guliani)
