(CNSNews.com) - Former President Donald Trump gave a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday, where he described in stark terms what he sees happening in America if those who oppose what conservatives are fighting for succeed.
“If those opposing us succeed, our once beautiful USA will be a failed country that no one will even recognize--a lawless, open borders, crime-ridden, filthy, communist nightmare,” said Trump.
“The most important battle in our lives is taking place right now as we speak,” said Trump. “For seven years, you and I have been engaged in an epic struggle to rescue our country from the people who hate it and want to absolutely destroy it.”
Here is a transcript of the part of Trump’s CPAC speech where he said opponents of what conservatives are fighting to achieve for America, this nation will become “a lawless, open borders, crime-ridden, filthy, communist nightmare:”
Donald Trump: “The most important battle in our lives is taking place right now as we speak. For seven years, you and I have been engaged in an epic struggle to rescue our country from the people who hate it and want to absolutely destroy it. The sinister forces trying to kill America have done everything they can to stop me, to silence you, and to turn this nation into a socialist dumping ground for criminals, junkies, Marxists, thugs, radicals and dangerous refugees that no other country wants, no other country wants.
“If those opposing us succeed, our once beautiful USA will be a failed country that no one will even recognize--a lawless, open borders, crime-ridden, filthy, communist nightmare. That’s what it’s going and that’s where it’s going. I used to say that we will never be a socialist country. I said it often times. I said it once at the State of the Union Address, and people didn’t understand what I was saying. But I’d shout it out loud and I was right because that train has passed the station—long ago, of socialism. It never even came close to stopping, frankly.
“We’re now in a Marxism state of mind, a communism state of mind, which is far worse. We are a nation in decline. Our enemies are desperate to stop us because they know that we are the only ones who can stop them. They know that.
“This room is so important, the people in this room.
“They know that we can defeat them, they know that we will defeat them, but they are not coming after me, they are coming after you, and I’m just standing in their way. That’s all I’m doing: I’m standing in their way. And that’s why I’m here today. That’s why I’m standing before you because we are going to finish what we started. We started something that was a miracle.
“We are going to complete the mission. We are going to see this battle through to ultimate victory. We are going to make America great again.”
