Better Me than You
Hello everybody and Happy Thanksgiving.
You're very very special
people to me and to
everybody in this country,
that I can tell you...
We're going on live now,
and surrounding me
is a lot of press.
Better me than you,
fellas, better me than you...
Giving Thanks
It's an honor to speak
with you all and
to give God thanks
for the blessings of freedom
and for the heroes who really have this
tremendous courage that you do
to defend us and to defend freedom
so we want
to thank you all
very much,
very very special
people, like it
doesn't get more special.

Everybody's Talkin' Bout Me (1)
I have to say just directly
to the folks in Afghanistan:
everybody's talking about the
progress you've made in the
last few months since I
opened it up.
We opened it up we
said go ahead we're
gonna fight to win we're
not fighting anymore
to just walk around we're
fighting to win and
you people are really
you've turned it around over
the last three to four months like
nobody's seen and
They. Are. Talking.
about it so thank you very much.
Brave. Incredible. Fighters.
My Own Private Marine
Semper Fi. Semper Fi.
I have a great Marine
who's the chief of staff
as you know
John Kelly
doing an incredible job
just like any Marine would.
Everybody's Talkin' Bout Me (2)
...to you and all the Marines
doing this great work
in delivering defeat
after defeat to ISIS
what you're doing with ISIS
is again, being talked about.
We're being talked about
again as an armed forces.
We're really winning.
We know how to win.
But we have to
let you win.
We weren't
letting you win before.
We were letting
you play even.
We're letting
you win.
The Power of Positivity
The fight against ISIS,
it's coming our way.
They're coming our way -
big, big difference.
A lot of things
have happened.
They say
we've made more progress
against ISIS
than they did in years
of the previous administration.
And that's because
I'm letting you
do your job.
We're very very proud of you
and believe me
everyone in this country
is watching and they're seeing
and they're seeing positive reports
for a change instead of
the neutral and negative reports.
It's all positive
One Two Three Four What the Hell are You Fighting For?
For each of you I know
it's hard to be away
from home at this time of
the year. We're doing well at home
the economy is doing really great
when you come back
you're going to see
with the jobs and the companies
coming back into our country and the
stock market just hit a record high
unemployment's the lowest
it's been in seventeen years so
you're fighting for
something real
for something good.
A lot of things
have happened with
our country over
the last very short
period of time
and they're really good,
they're really good.
I especially like
saying that companies
are starting to come back.
Now we're working on tax cuts,
big fat beautiful tax cuts
and hopefully
we'll get that and then
you're really gonna see things happen.
In Closing
So as we give thanks
for this holiday I know
I speak on behalf of
all Americans when I say that
we totally support you - in fact
we love you, we really do
we love you and this is a
Thanksgiving that you won't forget.
You're in a very different part
of the world than you
were used to but boy,
you're doing a job there and
thank God for you, thank God for you.
We also want to
give thanks to your loved ones
our amazing military families.
I know they miss you and
they miss you so deeply
and so badly.
They're every bit as
important as everyone
else who you work with
because they put up
with so much they put up
with the time away
and all of those things
that they have to endure and
they endure it
because they love our country
and because they love you
and believe me
I know so much
about military families...
