GOOD MORNING AMERICA! Wow!
A year ago, today, many of you joined me at Trump Tower in calling for real change in Washington, D.C. I am proud to say that with your support we are well on our way to Making America Great Again! Since the moment I rode down the escalator on June 16th, 2015, and decided to run for President, my campaign has been filled with nothing but excitement, dedication, and passion to change our country for the better – this is only the beginning of our movement.
I am honored and proud to lead our fight to put America first. This past year, I have travelled this great country and met many incredible Americans at our rallies. Yesterday in Atlanta, Georgia- we had a packed house of loving supporters. Even early on in our campaign, we had a record-setting rally in Mobile, Alabama, with over 30,000 attendees that joined our movement to Make America Great Again.
The Republican primary began with 17 experienced and talented candidates for President. At the Ronald Reagan Library on September 16th, your overwhelming support showed that our campaign had the message that resonated with hard- working Americans, and that DC-centric way of thinking is no longer capable of leading our country.
My campaign has been one of honesty and substance. We have created much-needed dialogue around the important issues facing our country. You’ve seen my leadership in setting the agenda this whole political season, on both sides of the aisle. We wouldn’t be talking about illegal immigration. We wouldn’t be talking about the drugs pouring in and the bad trade deals costing American jobs. We wouldn’t have called the terrorist attack in Orlando for what it is: radical Islamic terrorism. Politicians are all talk and no action.
The support of many wonderful Americans, led to resounding victories in the Republican Primary race, in which we beat the rigged political system and biased media with landslide victories. Our success began on February 9th, with an emphatic win in New Hampshire and reached a high point with our victory in South Carolina on February 20th. We had some tough losses along the way, but with your support we were able to bounce back and sweep the Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island on April 26th, along with other monumental wins throughout the primary season. The best of which was our win in Indiana on May 3rd, which led to us being declared the presumptive nominee and make history!
The strong vote of confidence that American voters have placed in our message of Making America Great Again, has buoyed us to many victories and is truly heartwarming. While we are thankful for the phenomenal success we have enjoyed in the past year, we are just beginning! I could not be more thrilled as your presumptive Republican Presidential Nominee and to officially accept the GOP Nomination at the Convention in July. We must continue to strive towards beating Crooked Hillary in November and Making ALL of America Great Again!
Thank you again for your support.
Best Wishes,
Donald J. Trump

Thanks for the ping, AW!
Trump’s only been a politician for one year. And that’s a good thing. He would agree. Dam the torpedoes, full steam ahead.
GO TRUMP GO!
I thought it was a publicity stunt. I had seen Trump on TV and news, but never watched his TV programs, etc. I chuckled when he would say or do things in 2012 regarding that election.
I didn’t take him seriously last June.
I saw extremely positive comments regarding some of this early rallies. So, I finally pulled up a live stream and watched. This spiel seemed disconnected and rambling, but mesmerizing. By the end I was going ‘hummmmm’.
I watched a couple more rallies the following days. The two things I especially noticed: (1) he was speaking from the heart and (2) he seemed sincere. He certainly wasn’t giving the same ole focus-group-approved politico-speak speeches the ‘regular’ politicians were giving.
I am for him. I have posted several times: If he does 1/2 of what he promises as president, he will be 10 times better than the last 4 presidents. He certainly couldn’t do much worse than the professional politicians who have created the messes we have.
“And he took the woefully bad advice and parted company with DJT. That was an historically bad decision by TC.”
I agree. I was a TC supporter and still like him, but his comments about the Trump rally in Chicago convinced me he made a poor choice and was about the fight a war he wasn’t going to win.
Cruz’s best bet is to wait until the convention and when the establishment goes after Trump, Cruz should get up and declare that he and his delegates support Tump 100%. Shut the RINO’s down.
I'm going to the Olympics! w00t!
You are welcome! I must have noticed your clever screen name on a Trump thread. Thought I’d share a postitive message from the candidate on a significant anniversary.

Count me in with you. He is exposing all the corruption and do nothings.
LOL
a careful read of the Bible reveals God chose the most unlikely people to lead His people. The established leaders (Pharisees and Sadducees, and others) had to be overcome, but God’s choices prevailed. Is Trump God’s choice to lead the US out of the barren wilderness of today into a promised land of milk and honey? I don’t know, and neither does anyone else.
ALL ABOARD! GO TRUMP!
A lot of people, myself included, did not think that The Donald was serious at first, that this was just an exercise in the flexing of ego, and after maybe a less than stellar performance, The Donald would quietly go back to the Trump Tower.
But unexpectedly, the recognition factor kicked in early, and the rise in the polls were meteoric. And the message, once the background static cleared up, did not merely resonate with a broad swath of Americans, it was rebooted, it was remastered, and it was powerfully amplified across the land. The Donald did not have to ask any of the media for coverage, they simply GAVE it to him, in some instances to the near exclusion of just about everybody else’s coverage. This was the best Presidential race story in YEARS, if not decades.
I was pushing, at first for an early favorite (Scott Walker), but there turned out, in the end, to be too little financial assistance, and later for Ben Carson, but again, probably not enough fire in the belly for the game, and possibly mismanagement by his staff in poor allocation of resources.
With growing admiration of The Donald, when it came around to the Florida vote, I gladly added my vote to his total, and from that day on, it was apparent that even a principled conservative such as Ted Cruz, had faltered in popularity to the degree that recovery was becoming far too great a challenge.
Is The Donald a conservative? Hell no, and I do not care. He is, for right now, the #NeverHillary, and that is enough to keep me fueled up.
thx.
go Donald
Actually, an "E-Ticket" ride. Nonetheless, we are on a ride of a lifetime!

Mr. Trump until that day, Independence Day which followed soon after, was looked upon as being the last our country would celebrate. Personal mood was one of despair, sadness, grief, and anger. After hearing/seeing you actually walk to the forefront and prove to the country this time you planned to stick around and finish the job you began several years ago, gave hope that AMERICA would have one last chance of survival. Your appearance onto the scene caused everything to change. With very little doubt, I became one of your first supporters. Faith had much to do with that decision.
The next anniversary, let us be celebrating the progress which Americans hope to see in the transformation of our country back to the country our Founding Fathers envisioned.
May the Lord continue to watch over you and your family, our United States and Americans. Amen.
i can’t wait!!!!!
Bumperoooooie!
