OrangeVerse LIV: There's a Plan for That

Can you stand one more volume from last Friday's Rose Garden appearance by the president?

Come on, I know you can do it! 

To whet your appetite, here's the first volume, and here's the second one, if you want to just skim and get back into the swing of presidential poetry... 

OK - ready to go again? 

Save Me, Donny!

I just want to finish by saying:

To save the economy, we passed

several pieces of critical pieces of

legislation totaling many trillions

of dollars - meaning, three. 

We're set up to do more 

if we want. I think we

should because we - 

we are dominant. 

Bystanding

For many

years as a

bystander 

but somebody

that loved government,

somebody that loved this country

I would watch and study and see and just, 

you know - when I say "study,"

naturally study, 

by watching.

What Doesn't Kill You Makes Me Stronger

We're going to be stronger than we were

when we were riding high. And our

stock market is almost - it's just

short of an all-time high.

I've had 144 all-time high

stock markets during a three

and a half year period. Nobody

has ever come close to that. And

we're going to do it again but it's

going to be even stronger than last time.

I See Good Numbers

When I would say

that to you, two three

months ago - I could see

what's happened I have good

- I've always done well with numbers

but I had a feel for it. I said it even the other

day. I was saying I think we're going to have a tremendous

next year, I think it's going to be a phenomenal next year. I didn't

know it would start this quickly...  I thought it would start in August,

September but it started very early. Amazing - it's an amazing thing.

Return of the Jobs

But it means they're likely to return

and all of these jobs that we're talking

about now aren't even included

because some of our biggest

places aren't opened.

They're opening up now. I think

New York is opening up like as of

today, and that's one of our

big ones. New Jersey

They're all working hard.

The governors are all working hard.

A Mobilization Like No Other 
We mobilized.

Nobody has never seen anything like it,

just like the Second World - there hasn't been

a mobilization like this since the Second World War - 

especially ventilators, because it's hard. It's big, it's complex -

very complete machinery, computerized all over the place and very

expensive. And we're building thousands a week. Right now we're building

thousands a week. We have all we can use. No governor - you hear the calls; 

you listen in on those calls. Frankly, you're invited to if you want - but 

you do anyway, even if you're not invited. 

And you see what's going on. 

Every governor - there's not been 

one patient in this entire massive

country - and we didn't have ventilators

when we started. The cupboards were empty.

The previous administration left us empty cupboards.

Damn the Flaming, Full Speed Ahead!!

So we want

the continued

blanket lockdown

to end for the states.

We may have some embers

or some ashes or we may have some

flames coming but we'll put them out.

We'll stomp them out. We... 

understand this now. We'll

stomp them out, and

we'll stomp them 

out very, very 

powerfully.

The R Word 

So we've made a big step in our comeback. 

This was always going to be - three months

ago, I said to you "This is a very important

period" - this June period - because we're

going t0 learn whether or not this is

a very big powerful "R" word - 

"recession" - or whether this is a

hurricane that we recover from

very quickly - we recover from

in a matter of weeks or days.

And we've learned. We've learned.

Again, as good as these numbers are

the best numbers are yet to come 

because so many areas

are still closed or very partially closed.

Very few, actually, are fully open. These

numbers are with states - 50 states -

and very few are fully open, even

the ones that are very out there

are not fully fully opened. 

So we're going to have some

tremendous numbers coming in. 

Nobody Puts Melania In A Trailer

When you look at the ridership in the airlines, 

what they've gone - they went from 2% to a number

that if it's correct, I'd be surprised actually but it's a very

high number. It's great. People are traveling. And you know what?

They're traveling in the United States. And they're also driving. And they're

building the trailers. They're building a lot of things. The're driving. 

People are  - people are driving. I may have to buy one of 

those things, drive around town. Maybe I'll drive back 

to New York with our First Lady in a trailer.

What do they call that? 

Contagious Magnetism

Now, we didn't know

the second part. We

knew it was highly

contagious because it

spread like fire.

But we didn't know that it hit

certain groups of people.  That

helps us so much in testing and other things.

So we're going to protect our elderly. 

We're going to protect, especially

our elderly with problems, whether

it's heart or diabetes or any problem.

It's like a magnet. I mean you're elderly

and you have diabetes or a bad heart it's

it's like a magnet. They say if you're - 

if you're heavy. So I say 

"Thank goodness

I'm in perfect shape. Thank goodness."

But if you're - if you're heavy, it's not good. 

It's a brutal, brutal thing.

The Logistics of War

We're going to have a vaccine soon.

I said it along time ago, based on knowledge - based on knowledge.

I'm - I'm meeting with these geniuses.  Based on knowledge, I said

a long time ago, I said, "by the end of the year." I think it's going to be

a lot sooner than that. And just finishing about vaccines,

we have mobilized the logistics arm of our military. 

We can move hundreds of thousands of men

and women in a very short time. 

The vaccine is easy, by compare.

But we can move hundreds of thousands.

It's meant for war. It's not meant for this, 

but we have our war with 

the invisible enemy. 

It's meant for war, but

we can move hundreds of thousands.

Hun - think of that: Hundreds of thousands

in a very short time. The same people

are doing the vaccine and

they're fully mobilized.

"Thank You, Nancy and Chuck"

I want to thank the Democrats.

We had essentially unanimous votes

I think in the Senate and the House. Right?
Whether it's unanimous or very close. 

It's a lot of people.
But I want to thank the Democrats. 

We worked together on it great.

And I hope we can get along with Democrats.
It's been a disaster, in terms of relationship but

I hope we can get along because it's a great thing for our country.

We did all of these numbers and all of this greatness.

We have the greatest economy we've ever had.

It will soon be greater than it was even before.

But Wait - There's A Pandemic???

We did this with discord. 

We did this with a Senate and a House

that were not dealing with us and

we weren't dealing with them either.

The level of - of - let's just say the war-like po-

posture is ridiculous because we have a great country.

It would make a difference if we could get along.

And maybe we can and maybe we can't. 

I mean there are a lot of differences.
We want low taxes.
We want closed borders. 

We want people to come in 

but they have to come in through a merit.

They want open borders. 

You can't have open borders 

especially now when you have a pandemic.

Open The Door, and Let Me In

So we have a lot of things

to work with the Democrats. 

If we could work along with them,

it would be great.
If we don't, we're going to

do great as a country anyway.

We're going to do great anyway.

But if we could work along with the Democrats -

and I'm open to it. People say

I wouldn't be open why would I be open?

They did things that 

they never should have done.

And you know what I'm talking about. 

Should have never done.

But I'm totally open to it.

A Man With A Plan

And by the way, what's happened

to our country and what you see now -

it's been happening - 

is the greatest thing that can happen

for race relations, for the African American community,

for the Asian American, for the Hispanic American community

for women, for everything - because our country is so strong, 

and that's what my plan is.

We're going to have the strongest economy
in the world. We are almost there now. 

We had the strongest economy anywhere in the world

and now we're going to have an economy that's even stronger.
