michigan said yes to president donald trump in 2016 and he and i both know that michigan is going to say yes to president donald trump in 2020. you know, when you think of the last three years, i think there's only one way you can describe it. you spend three years of action, spend three years of results, it's been three years of promises made and promises kept. but we're just getting started, michigan. that's why we need four more years of president donald trump in the white house! think about it, this president rebuilt our military, restored the arsenal democracy, giving our sailors, airmen, marines and coast guard, the resources they need to accomplish their mission and defend this nation. this president expanded veterans choice to every veteran in america and brought accountability to the va. he's confirmed more than 170 conservative judges. and get this, in eight years of the obama administration, president obama saw 55 court of appeals judges confirmed. we're right on track in our first three years to have this president appoint 50 principaled conservatives to our court of appe

we are part of state government, so our museum tells the story of michigan, all of michigan, including lansing. today, we will walk through our galleries. the museum is set up, literally a walk through time. you come to the museum. it is at the end of the ice age. we talk about the first indigenous peoples that lived here in michigan and go to the end of the 20th century. we are standing in our exhibit it is one we just recently renovated. the focal point is this gigantic mural that is painted. it shows the story of the anishinaabek people through four seasons. one of the things it tells is the advanced society they had before europeans arrived. they had very sophisticated social structures. it was just a little different than the western civilization. they chose to live off of the land and not try to control the land. they spent a lot of their time really working in harmony with the lands to meet all their basic needs. in this mural, things to point out is the structures. there are a lot of misconceptions that native americans all lived in teepees. in michigan, they lived in structure

it is a win for michigan. it is a win for american jobs in american workers, i don't have to tell all of you here in the heartland about the experience we all had in the wake of nafta. back in indiana, we literally saw not just factories but entire communities shuddered over the last 30 years, because the structure of nafta essentially intentional or unintentional created an incentive for companies to move jobs south of the border, one under president donald trump, those days are over. the usmca puts american jobs and american workers first. i'm telling, you the usmca, they tell us, could actually create more than half 1 million new jobs across this country, including more than 50,000 manufacturing jobs and the people of michigan deserve to know, the that includes a projection of 28,000 automotive jobs. that is because under the usmca, if you have not heard about this, yet you are not too far from motor city, 75% of auto parts in duty free cars have to be made in north america, and 40% have to be made by north

is it michigan or wisconsin? soledad: welcome back to "matter of fact" from detroit, michigan. before 2016, which is when the state flipped red for president donald trump, it had been reliably blue for 20 years, despite michigan being the birthplace of the grand old party. but there's a grand old dispute over that claim. on july 6, 1854, a group of more than 1000 people met in jackson, michigan, about 80 miles west of detroit. they were outraged over the passage of the kansas-nebraska territories to slavery. it was hot that day, so the crowd moved outside to a nearby oak grove, which later became known as the under the oaks convention. and the first statewide candidates were selected for what would become the republican party. prior to that, smaller groups around the country also met to denounce slavery and start a new party, including in ripon, wisconsin. so that town also says it's the birthplace of the gop. the republican national committee has wavered on which city holds the honor, calling the ripon meeting "informal" and the meeting in jackson "official." so both places st

to make sure we deliver michigan in 2020 for our great president. across the state we've deployed staff to begin aggressively contacting voters and building out our infrastructure so that we can win in 2020. democrats now fully support the socialist agenda. make no mistake, folks, 2020 will be a fight for freedom versus heavy-handed government. do you want that? it would be a socialism versus capitalism. what do you want? [inaudible] i can't hear you. we will win this fight every time we talk about what we believe in and what our great president believes in. in the summer of 2015, donald trump descended on an escalator in trump tower and grabbed the world's attention when he announced that he was running to be the next president of the united states. then in the fall of 2016, donald trump shocked the world when he was elected the 45th president of the united states. i wouldn't have done without all a few folks in michigan fighting to get him elected. and especially in the column county. [cheering] you were instrumental in president trump's success i

right here in michigan. someone else may be wishes she came to michigan more often in 2016. not that it would matter. you would have still voted for donald trump, right? i thought so. really, the future of this country is at stake. we are back on the right path. the country is working for people again. people are seeing economic prosperity and job growth unlike we have seen in the history of this country, and we can't lose that now. you remember the president saying in 2016 what do you have to lose? we have a lot to lose right now. we can't leave this to chance. i have a two-year-old and almost four-month-old, and i am here tonight with you guys. i'm traveling around the country. in 2016i didn't have any kids and it was important to me to see the country headed in the right direction. it is even more important now because i want the country to work for them one day, and their peers, and generations beyond. if we go the way of socialism it would mean the end of the united states as we know it. our country could end up like venezuela. it is so terrifying to think. that is why

for michigan. all they did was take away companies and let them go to mexico and other places. [crowd boos] mexico has 32% of your car business, you know that right. not because of me. through hundred 32% to mexico. can you believe that. [crowd boos] but that's what i used to talk about, i said how do you let this happen, how do you let these companies leave and they said probably maybe the single biggest reason iran for president, i had a lot of them but that may be the single thing with the illegal unconstitutional and partisan impeachment, they do nothing democrats, they are do nothing all they want to do is focus on this, they are declaring deep hatred for the american voter. , this partisan impeachment is a political suicide march for the democrat party. have you seen my polls in the last four weeks. [cheering] it is crazy. you know why, because we have an election down the road. i announced three months ago that i am running. [cheering] i'll give you a little clue, i announced because one to

michigan gop chairwoman. [cheering] hate to tell you that all the congressmen, you know where they are right now. they are in a place called congress right now doing an unbelievable job of supporting the president is supporting you. don't leave, stay right where you are. the proud union autoworker, thank you. come on up. and while they are so in to become obsessed with impeachment, we are focused on jobs, local leaders and they are right where they have to be in washington tonight. [applause] great job, thank you very much. >> we have eliminated more job killing regulations than any in the history of the country whether it is four years or eight years in the [cheering] of two and a half years we've eliminated more regulations than any other president by far. saving almost $3,000 a year because of regulation cut. a total income gaintotal incomee median households will reach $10,000 a family. i will give you a couple of quick numbers. for eight years is a $450 meaning you took in 450. okay. under president obam

everybody, ohioans and michigan's agree, that michigan ,efinitely got the better deal because that is where they found the iron ore and copper ore deposits that really helped michigan become the manufacturing state that it did. were rich with native forests, largely times, but also explorer-surveyor douglas houchin discovered unnatural iron ore and copper deposits there. in the last half of the 19th century, most of the lumber in the lower part of the peninsula andcut down and harvested full mining efforts began in the upper peninsula for the copper and iron ore. when you are extracting the copper and the iron ore, it rarely comes out perfectly pure, so this is some copper or that has other impurities in it. necessitated the building of some of michigan's first factories to process, fours, take these raw materials and purify them, remove the impurities to make the p or usedr moved --pure copper ,n candlesticks, ingots, pots and other things. this is one of the things that set michigan up to become a .ajor manufacturing center some of the earliest manufacturing industries were related

this fell flat in an audience in michigan. and it was clear that the president is not always so aware of the politics of the places where he's going. and the audience he's speaking in front of. to think that this was a good joke for this audience. it wasn't. but when this president, you know, doesn't shy away from a personal fight even when it's unseemly. i can see this going in the direction that it did with attacking john mccain even after his death. that went multiple rounds. trump just kept doubling and tripling down. i don't think that if history -- if trump's behavior in the past is any sign of what he'll do next, i don't think debbie dingell's tweet will be the end of a fight with the dingells. this is just the kind of personal slap fight that he loves to keep going in. >> yeah, perhaps it just seemed like a disgraceful low point tonight on this night of all nights. peter baker, annie karni, jeremy bash, after a long day our thanks for coming here and helping us out. coming up for us, the president's fate now moves over

with the last speech in michigan. they said it is hard to win michigan. here is the beautiful thing. everything i told you i have done but more so. i said i was want to bring car companies back. i hope you people know that. i just hope you know it. i will never forget that night. in all fairness to bill clinton. used to be a friend of mine until i ran for office. i like him. but he told you know the way they tried to shut him out. he is a pro. he is an instinct guy. he doesn't need polling companies. who wants them? if you want a polling company pick up the newspaper. the newspaper poles are more fake than the news they write. they write take poles. they write fake polls. you call them suppression poles. you read them and you get depressed because it looks like you are doing badly. they do that i think it is almost worse than what they write you cannot get much worse than what they write. what happens is bill clinton said to crooked hillary is very dishonest wife. crooked hillary do you think he calls her crooked hillary? maybe he just called her crooked.

the auto industry -- i'm a michigan girl. the auto industry knows the electric industry is the industry of the future. when we were there, it reinforced we have to work together to get this done. david: your a michigan native and you come from a family affiliated with the auto industry. there are a lot of michigan people joining this. you wrote in the detroit free press that this could be an opportunity. 30% of greenhouse gas comes from the auto industry. rep. dingell: transportation sector. david: sorry. but we can be a leader in the world. rep. dingell: i have been looking at it for a long time. i knew it when i was working at general motors a number of years ago. i talked to the auto companies all of the time. there is a recognition of how much internal combustion engines, fossil fuels are contributing to the crisis we have and we need to get to a newer technology. the united states needs to lead. we need to stay the forefront of innovation and technology. instead of doing circular firing squads, everybody needs to get at

both michigan and ohio wanted that. what lodge and is, a first trapper familiar with the area came down to the legislator and reminded them that if they drew that line as described in the ordinance, they were going to lose the toledo area we know today. they made an adjustment and moved the line northward as they reached lake erie. that went into the 18 oh three statehood application, approved by congress. there was a committee that said we should look at that. no one stopped it. by the 1830's, michigan territories were getting ready to apply for their statehood. they want to settle this. at the same time, the miami area canal which i refer to in today's terminology would be a huge economic develop and project, it was really starting to come to fruition. people wanted to make sure the terminus for that was inside their state territory. this led up to april of 1835 and the battle of phillips corner. that was when michigan militia came down and confronted the ohio surveyors who were trying to confirm the ohio line. they f

in michigan, obviously. medicare for all as a democratic issue, does that help or hurt with the union workers? >> well, right now i happen to believe people should have a choice. but what i think we ought to be talking about, i hope our candidates will be talking about on the stage, is not just all the ways that we want to increase opportunities for health care. the thing that we share, the value we share regardless of your proposal, we all want people to have more health care, lower costs and prescription drugs, lower costs on health care. donald trump today is trying to take away people's health care. yesterday there was a court case in the fifth circuit that ruled in a way that puts us one step closer for people with preexisting conditions, which is half the families in michigan, from losing their health care. every day he is trying to take away people's health care. and so that's what i want to litigate in michigan. >> senator, i know that i probably shouldn't be surprised anymore by donald trump's cruel

michigan, i might add, battleground state. i think he's going to frame the 2020 election, i think he's going to say impeachment and socialism versus me, prosperity and america first. what do you think? >> i think you're exactly right. he's got a great message to tell. he's got a jobs report, he's got an economy that's on fire. the only thing the democrats have on fire is their pants from lying so much. that's all they've got. all they can say is we don't like donald trump versus you got record unemployment, you have jobs, wages up, trade deals that are beginning to work. that's an increase in every bit of the economy. this is a president who has forced european nations to start funding their share of nato. maybe he didn't do it with the kind of finesse a lot of the liberals would have loved but he gets the job done and ultimately, americans want someone who is effective and forceful and they got that in donald trump. thank god for him. stuart: do you think americans are listening? i see the polls moving more and more in his fa
