Four score and seven years ago. Not everyone knows a score. People ask me, they say, Whats a score? Fauci the other day. Whats a score? Not everyone knows. The score is the best its ever been. Under Trump, 87. Under Obama, not so much.
Eighty-seven tremendous, tremendous years ago and some years that were not so great, frankly our fathers brought forth; also the mothers, the great suburban mothers. Biden wants to take away their dream. Our fathers and our mothers brought forth a new nation. How they did it: not so good. Not so perfect. A lot of people got hurt. Some were bad people, but a lot of them were good. The king of England, not everyone agrees he was so bad, but now they have a queen. Very few people know this.
Someone told me Thomas Jefferson ate by himself at the White House and was the smartest one ever. I dont think so. I dont think so. I frankly think my IQ people tell me it is tremendous. The doctors see and they cant believe it. They say, Mr. President, this is unbelievable! Its called a cognitive test. Bidens afraid to take it. Sleepy Joe.
My people, the best people, they tell me Thomas Jefferson made a good deal when he bought Louisiana, the great state of Louisiana, for 3 cents an acre. I say he must have read my book.

Our fathers and mothers believed in liberty and the prop . . . uh . . . the prop . . . a . . . ma . . . gician that all men are created equal. The ladies, not so much. Melania is a 10. Hillary? Like I said, not so much. Merkel? Not so much.
Now we are met on a battlefield where, frankly, there were very fine people on both sides. Some of them got killed. A lot of them, but not all. Obama would have let all of them get killed. I happen to prefer soldiers who dont get killed.
When I was making America greater than it has ever been and I will do it again; only I can fix it after the kung flu, they call it the co-ro-na-virus, they call it covid, since when does a disease have so many names? Once it washes through, its going to wash through sooner or later and I happen to think sooner. Its called testing. The United States does it better than anybody and guess what? More cases. The fake news those people right over there, I call them the fake news they dont want you to know this. Only I can bring us back to where we were before China.
I look around at this great, beautiful, tremendous battlefield with the cemetery full of people who gave what I like to call the last, full measure of devotion. Think about it: full measure. Not taking a knee against our great flag. Not antifa. Its more devotion than at any time ever in the history of our country. And I can do it again.
Ill get up there and put my hand on a big, beautiful Bible. I love the Bible. I love God. Biden will do away with God. Biden will take away the Bible. Its sad. But folks, they are nasty, nasty people. I will bring us together like youve never seen.
