‘Donald Trump Has Changed Washington’

For the first time in a long time, we have a president who has called out Washington’s hypocrisy — and they hate him for it. Dad, people attack you for being unconventional, but I love you for being real, and I respect you for being effective. [applause] Our president refuses to surrender his beliefs to score a point with the political elite. To my father, you are the elite. You are the only people he cares about scoring points with. If these problems were easy to solve, previous presidents would have done so. But you don’t achieve different results by doing things the same way. Washington has not changed Donald Trump — Donald Trump has changed Washington. America doesn’t need another empty vessel who will do whatever the media and the fringe of his party demands. Now more than ever, America needs four more years of a warrior in the White House. [cheering] Tonight, I could not be more proud to introduce my father, a man I know was made for this moment in history.
