Donald Trump2 quotes
Mothers and children trapped in poverty in our inner cities; rusted-out factories scattered like tombstones across the landscape of our nation; an education system, flush with cash, but which leaves our young and beautiful students deprived of all knowledge; and the crime and gangs and the drugs that have stolen too many lives and robbed our country of so much unrealized potential. This American carnage stops right here and stops right now. — Donald Trump · 2017For too long, a small group in our nation’s Capital has reaped the rewards of government while the people have borne the cost.

The establishment protected itself, but not the citizens of our country. — Donald Trump · 2017Abraham Lincoln1 quote

To me America used to be a place that made steel and cars and had giant department stores. Now basically we produce amateur talent and people that judge amateur talent. — Jerry Seinfeld · 2014Ronald Reagan1 quote
We're too great a nation to limit ourselves to small dreams. We're not, as some would have us believe, doomed to an inevitable decline. — Ronald Reagan · 1981Walt Whitman1 quote
