Donald J. Trump for President 2024 Announcement Speech Excerpts

Palm Beach, FL -- Donald Trump announced his candidacy for the presidency Tuesday night at Mar-a-Lago.

Please see below for key excerpts from President Trump's speech.

Key excerpts:

President Trump: "The decline of America is being forced upon us by Biden and the radical left lunatics running our government into the ground. This decline is not a fate we must accept."

President Trump: "Together, we will be taking on the most corrupt forces and entrenched interests imaginable... This is not a task for a politician or a conventional candidate. This is a task for a great movement."

President Trump: "This will not be my campaign. This will be our campaign all together. Because the only force strong enough to defeat the massive corruption we are up against is you, the American people."

President Trump: "The radical left Democrats have embraced an extreme ideology of government domination and control. Our approach is the opposite, based on freedom, values, individual responsibility and just plain common sense."

President Trump: "We are going to restore and secure America's borders just like we had them before. We built the wall and now we will add to it."

President Trump: "Every drug dealer during his or her life on average will kill 500 people with the drugs they sell, not to mention the destruction of families. We are going to be asking everyone who sells drugs, gets caught selling drugs to receive the death penalty."

President Trump: "We will abolish every Biden covid mandate and rehire every patriot who was fired from our military with an apology and full back pay."

President Trump: "I will push a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress. I will ask for a permanent ban on taxpayer funding of campaigns, a lifetime on lobbying by former members of Congress.. a ban on members of Congress trading stocks on insider information"

Republican Governors Association Announces Sara Craig Gongol As Its New Executive Director

RGA Announces Sara Craig Gongol As Its New Executive Director

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the Republican Governors Association announced Sara Craig Gongol as the organization‘s new executive director. Craig Gongol will oversee the RGA's political and policy organization for a four-year term that begins January 2023.

"Sara is a talented operative who's keenly aware of what's necessary for an organization to be successful at the highest level," said RGA Co-Chair Governor Pete Ricketts. "She brings to the RGA a knowledge of how to win tough races, support a governor's policy agenda, and make important strategic decisions. We're lucky to have her leading the RGA for four years."

Craig Gongol previously served as Chief of Staff and general consultant to RGA Vice Chair and recently re-elected Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds. Faced with a tough election in 2018, Governor Reynolds turned to Craig Gongol to steer her campaign operation, resulting in a victory over a well-financed Democrat opponent. Reynolds recently won her 2022 re-election campaign by nearly 20 percent thanks to historic accomplishments in her first full term in office.

"What happens at the state level has a profound impact on people's lives and Sara will be responsible for making sure the RGA continues to expand its majority of governors," said RGA Co-Chair Governor Doug Ducey. "Sara's impressive political and official office experience makes her a perfect fit to oversee the organization as we head into an incredibly important four-year cycle."

"Sara has been a valuable resource for me during my four-year tenure as executive director and I'm incredibly excited to welcome her as our new leader," said outgoing RGA Executive Director Dave Rexrode. "The organization is in good hands with Sara in control and I'm confident more Republican governors will be elected because of her commitment to running effective operations."

Prior to her time serving Governor Reynolds, Craig Gongol worked for multiple presidential, statewide, and local campaigns in Iowa, Virginia, and other locations around the country.
