Wow, why are my rallies always composed of the most beautiful people in this country?

First let's thank lacy haunted Marci Allen. Oh

That's the greatest thing is that you come to places like Atlanta you like it lacy and I actually have friends online

I have to say meeting someone in person is about a thousand times better than meeting them online. I

Highly recommend it. So if you're friends with people online, try and meet them face-to-face

Someone asked me have I been to Atlanta lot

I bet it would land a lot over the last number of years

But I have to say I've never been to this park

I never really enjoyed this place as like like someone who was here. Like I always been very transactional about my time in Atlanta

So like in and out, you know what I mean?

Like I didn't know if coming in and I just go downtown

I do some corporate meeting and then often I'd instead of turning around

But I want to spend some more time than land. I get to know you all

Because this place is tremendous and you guys keep sucking up some of my favorite people from the East Coast you

Guys, just keep on absorbing them. How many of you are all from the Northeast and you've wised up?

We envy you we're mad. And the way we're gonna show our anger is we're gonna follow you

Know so I'll make you yeah, you look gathered. I'm running for president as a Democrat in 2020

I'm an entrepreneur. I'm a problem solver and I've been studying for the last number of years how to create jobs

I'm actually not much of a studier anymore more of a doer where I went around the country trying to create jobs in Detroit

Cleveland st. Louis Birmingham New Orleans, I started an organization called venture for America of you know a venture for America raise your head

So I've been doing that word for the last number of years and then Donald Trump won the election of 2016

Whoo, I know some of you supported Donald Trump but it's cool because we got all sorts of people in the yang gay

People it's all good so with Donald Trump one

To me. This was the way I interpreted the results. I was like wow America is so

Hurting that we took a chance on a narcissist reality TV star as our president. I

Was like that's pretty bleak. And so I started digging into the numbers. If you go to the mainstream, press no bars. That's right

So what are the mainstream press explanations for why Donald Trump is our president today like what do they say

You just turn down cable news. You didn't know anything. Like why would you think he won?

now Electoral College Russia as a matter of fact

I brought a copy of the Muller report with me and I'm going to read it to you

I'm kidding obviously has 446 pages. We've been here all night

These are the explanations that have been offered to us as to why America decided to go with Donald Trump in 2016

myself and I said that's missing the central point that

The reason why Donald Trump is our president today is that we automated away 4 million manufacturing jobs in Michigan

Pennsylvania where you from brother you're from here, but he still he still knows this is true

Wisconsin Missouri, Iowa all the swing states that he needed to win and did win how many of you all work in technology?

I know that there are a bunch of people here I do

Yeah, there are a lot of techies in the yang gang

So any other hand up, you know that what we did to the manufacturing workers

The call center workers the fast-food workers

The truck drivers and on and on through the economy and it's not just blue collar workers. It's also white collar workers

I was just talking to a marketing Pro who tells me that a lot of marketing is becoming data and algorithms

You know, it used to be come up with a creative message now. It's like we don't need you to be creative

18 of them and then the numbers will tell us which one is the best and you can just sit back. Yeah the math

And I was an unhappy corporate attorney for five months and I can guarantee you you can automate that job

So there are a lot of jobs that are gonna be subject to automation that are not just the manufacturing jobs

In a very dramatic way and Lela is one of the most prosperous cities in our country

So in many ways you all are like some of like you have different experiences with this than a lot of the country

but you know that these changes are coming in part because many of you

those of you had your hands up before you're working on making these changes of reality every day and

You see it and I have many friends who are techies and if you ask techies, hey

Do you think that we are automating away many other Americans jobs?

Most techies will say yes. Yes, we are and then if you ask hey, how do you feel about it?

Don't feel they'll say I don't feel good about it

And then if you asked you want to help me and do something about it and help prepare America

They say yes, and you guys are here today because you said yes, too. So, thank you very very much. So

These are the problems were in the third inning of the greatest economic and technological transformation in the history of the world

experts call it the fourth Industrial Revolution and

This is why Donald Trump's our president. He's the symptom

He's the manifestation and yet everyone is reacting as if he's the cause of all of these problems

He is not you don't get angry at the symptom

Right now is this rampant economic insecurity that's tearing our society apart because more and more Americans are getting pushed to the sidelines

So if you're all here today, you know this about me

There's an Asian man running for president who wants to give everyone $1,000 a month

And all three of those statements are true I am Asian

I am running for president and I do want to give everyone $1,000 a month

Now it seems awfully dramatic, but then if you dig into our country's history

You see that Thomas Paine was for it at the founding of the country called it the citizens dividend

1967 in his book chaos our community and you can google in YouTube his lectures in

1967 where this was the focus of his activism in

1967 the year before he was assassinated in

1968 and he was not arguing alone Milton Friedman and a thousand economists

Signed a study saying this would be tremendous for America and I don't know how you feel about him

Just this week came out and said we should guarantee every American a minimum income

So this is not some like like radical idea
