John Peterson, owner of 165-person Schuette Metals of Wausau, WI, says Obama and Biden couldn't get government out of their way and put their business in a tailspin, which led to staff cuts. "Obama-Biden era banking regs left us no choice." he says.

NICHOLAS SANDMANN IS UP.
Video shows celebrities and various media types bullying Sandmann and saying he deserved what he got for wearing a red hat.
Sandmann speaking at Lincoln Memorial. Describes how he attended March for Life, and how he came to purchase a MAGA hat. "How could I have possibly imagined that the simple act of putting on that red hat would ... make me the target of news nationwide."
While the media portrayed him as aggressor with a relentless smirk, in reality the video confirms he was standing with hands behind back and an awkward smile. Says he was trying to keep man from being agitated and to keep his family/school/community from being embarrassed.
"The full war machine of the mainstream media revved up into attack mode," Sandmann says, noting they never asked him for his side of the story. "Because the truth was not important. Advancing their anti-conservative, anti-Christian, anti-Trump narrative was all that mattered."
Says media attacked him to send a lesson to all Trump supporters that they deserve violent threats for their political views.
"I fought back hard to expose the media for what they did to me." Says he looks forward to the day the media return to providing news. Says no one has been a victim of unfair media coverage more than Donald Trump. Says media must be challenged to return to objective journalism.
Sandmann says we should not hide in fear from media, tech companies, or outrage mobs. Ends by putting back on the MAGA hat that the media persecuted him for.
I will be very curious to see how Washington Post, CNN, and other media outlets that viciously lied about Sandmann and tried to destroy his life will handle his speech.

Tiffany Trump talks about media pushing narratives and manipulation of information that we receive, says it impedes our freedoms and keeps us from being able to make their own decisions. Says it fosters unnecessary fear and divisiveness.
Tiffany says viewpoints are hidden by some in media and other bad actors because divisiveness breeds profit. Says it inhibits diversity of thought and pushes groupthink. Quotes Maximo Alvarez saying "there is nowhere else to go."
Tiffany Trump: We believe in equality of opportunity, of freedom of thought and expression, think what you want, seek out the truth, school choice, freedom of religion for all faiths, the American spirit, a country founded on ideas, not identity, where differences are embraced
Tiffany Trump: "I encourage you to see beyond the facade that so many other politicians employ." Says that other politicians put on masks of decency while hiding their beliefs, praises her father for challenging institutions in order to ensure Constitutional freedoms prevail.
"Make America Great Again is not a slogan for my father, it is what drives him." Tiffany Trump says.

Daniel Cameron, Kentucky Atty General: Mr. Vice President, look at me, I am black. We are not all the same. I'm not in chains, my mind is my own. And you can't tell me how to vote because of the color of my skin. Biden is a backwards thinker in a world craving forward leadership.
"If you fail to conform while exercising your God-given right to speak and think freely, they will cut you down. .. Republicans trust you to think for yourself." Cameron.
Mike Pompeo, Secretary of State, speaking from "beautiful Jerusalem." Quotes Eisenhower that the Securing of Peace is the First Requisite. Says primary Constitutional function is making sure Americans are safe and free to work, live, worship as they choose.
I think it's funny that Melania Trump is the most beautiful first lady the country has ever even come close to having but the media refuse to acknowledge it because of their hatred and loathing of her husband.
Like, every time Michelle Obama left the house, it was "YASS QUEEN SLAY" and fashion spreads and favorable cover photos. But with supermodel Melania, it's like "oh did she look nice? I didn't notice."
This speech is so effective that Michelle Obama should steal it.
Melania Trump asks citizens to take a moment, pause, look at things from different perspectives, and work together to live up to American standards. She calls on rioters to stop destruction. Says we need to "cherish one another."
"From the day that I met him, he has only wanted to make this country the best it can be. For many years I watched him grow concerned and frustrated...America is his heart." Encourages media to focus less on trivial gossip and more on real problems, such as nation's drug crisis.
Melania to parents: "you are warriors. In my husband you have a president who will not stop fighting for you and your families. I see how hard he works each day and night, despite unprecedented attacks from media. If you tell him it can't be done, he just works harder."
Melania: We all know Donald Trump makes no secret about how he feels about things. Total honesty is what we citizens deserve from our president. Whether you like it or not, you always know what he's thinking..he's an authentic person who loves this country and its people
Listing ideals on national security, economy, family, Melania says: To vote for those ideals is not a partisan vote, it's a common sense vote, because those are hopes and goals we all believe in.
Very interesting that the two most difficult and complex speeches, content-wise, were given by Tiffany Trump (who had the best speech of the evening, in my view) and Melania Trump.
Media who gushed and praised Obama for destroying norm against previous president trashing current president now claiming to be extremely upset Trump pardoned American, that citizens were naturalized, that Melania Trump spoke at White House, and that Pompeo addressed convention.
