Thousands waited in line, many in their red MAGA hats, to see the 45th president who they hope will also be the 47th. Chants of “We want Trump!” were heard throughout the Charleston Area Convention Center as President Trump definitely felt the love from South Carolinians on Valentine’s Day.
Flanked by Governor Henry McMaster, Senator Tim Scott, and Representative Nancy Mace, some of the talking points highlighted the crisis at the border, the economy, the “woke” movement in the military, and President Biden’s mental acuity (or lack thereof).
President Trump promised the “largest deportation operation in American history” as he pledged to rescind every open border policy of the Biden administration on Day #1 of his presidency. Trump drew distinctions between himself and Nikki Haley, remarking that his opponents want her since they can easily win against her. He also warned that Haley would like to gut Medicare and Social Security while raising the retirement age.
