President Trump kicks off
the final sprint to November tonight with his first rally since the Republican
Convention.
The president will join
Michael Whatley in North Carolina to help make the case against Roy Cooper, a
failed 40-year politician who made the state more expensive and less safe.
As a reminder:
- Cooper oversaw the
early release of over 4,000 violent
criminals from jail, including
Iryna Zarutska’s killer who had 14 prior
arrests, along with murderers,
drug
dealers, child
rapists, and sexual
predators. Cooper believes
people are “frustrated” he didn’t release more.
- Cooper marched to
defund the police and launched an
“equity” task force that pushed to
“reimagine public safety,” eliminate cash
bail, send social
workers to 911 calls, and imposed mandatory
“structural racism” and “implicit bias” training.
- Under Cooper, North Carolinians
paid the highest
health care costs in the nation, electric bills rose,
housing costs increased,
and grocery bills grew.
- Cooper oversaw nearly
$50 million in fraudulent unemployment payments, including to illegal
aliens.
- Cooper turned North
Carolina into a sanctuary for criminal illegal aliens, paved the
way for illegal aliens to get driver’s licenses, and tried to
keep non-citizens on North Carolina’s voter rolls.
- Cooper forced men
into women’s sports and bathrooms, supported sex
change surgeries for kids, and fought to
strip parents’ rights.
- Cooper botched hurricane
recovery in North Carolina:
- Vetoed a
key Hurricane Helene relief bill.
- Never appointed
a dedicated disaster recovery coordinator.
- Mismanaged recovery
efforts.
- Was in
New York bragging about his Green New Deal agenda during Helene
preparations.
“North Carolinians have a
choice between Roy Cooper – a soft-on-crime 40-year career politician with a
failed record of raising costs – or Michael Whatley – a proven conservative
leader who will stand with President Trump, support law enforcement, and push
for policies that put working families first. Cooper already had a shot at
running the state and blew it – voters don’t need a sequel. – Natalie
Baldassarre, RNC National Press Secretary
