President Trump took time out of his busy schedule to sit down and talk immigration with the American people. However, he first took care of some “housekeeping” by offering his condolensces to the people of Louisiana and Mississippi who had their communities destroyed by a devastating tornado. He also commented on the recent decision by Intel to build a new facility in Arizona that would bring thousands of new jobs (and good jobs) to the American people…
But the bulk of the Presidents commentary had to do with his dedication to protecting American lives.
My fellow Americans, this week our hearts are with the people of Louisiana and Mississippi.
Families have lost their homes, businesses and livelihoods. After a devastating tornado swept through many, many communities.
My administration will make sure they have the support that they need and really desperately want.
We’re going to take care of them. It’s remarkable to see Americans across the country come together to help families rebuild their lives.
That is the beauty of the American spirit, there’s nothing like it. There’s a great spirit all over the country and that spirit is what we will need to rebuild America. As I have said so often, make America great again.
On Tuesday, I was pleased to host at the Whitehouse the CEO of Intel, Who announced that Intel will invest seven billion dollars in a new manufacturing facility in Arizona.
Creating thousands of new American jobs, that’s what we want. New American jobs and good jobs.
Intel decided to move forward with this project because they know we are totally committed to lifting the regulatory and tax burdens that are hurting American innovation and companies.
In fact, we are the process right now of working on a major tax reform that will massively reduce taxes on our workers and businesses.
We want to make it much easier to do business in America and that’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to make it also much harder for companies to leave.
They’re not just going to say, bye-bye and fire everybody, there will be consequences.
I want America to be the great jobs magnet of the world, but we can’t do that if we don’t stop the wasteful rules and excessive taxes that makes it impossible for companies to compete.
Every hour of every day, my administration is focused on creating jobs for our people and I mean good jobs. More jobs, better jobs, higher paying jobs, that’s our mission.
This week, I also met with sheriffs and police chiefs from across the country. I pledged to them that we will stand with the incredible men and women of law enforcement. And so too will our great new attorney General, Jeff Sessions.
My administration is committed to your security which is why we will continue to fight to take all necessary and legal action to keep terrorists, radical and dangerous extremists from ever entering our country.
We will not allow our generous system of immigration to be turned against us as a tool for terrorism and truly bad people.
We must take firm steps today to ensure that we are safe tomorrow. We will defend our country, protect our country protect our Constitution and delivere real prosperity for our people.
God bless you, God bless America, have a great week.
