ASSOCIATED PRESS
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania – 10 October 2024
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"There is absolutely no evidence that this man thinks about anybody but himself. I’ve said it before, Donald Trump is a 78-year old billionaire who has not stopped whining about his problems since he rode down his golden escalator nine years ago. You’ve got the tweets in all caps that the ranting and raving about crazy conspiracy theories. You’ve got the two hour speeches, word salads. Just, you know, it’s like Fidel Castro just on and on. Constant attempts to sell you stuff. Who does that? Selling you gold sneakers and a hundred thousand dollar watch and most recently a Trump Bible. He wants you to buy the Word of God Donald Trump edition. Got its name right there next to Mathew and Luke."
++BLACK FRAMES++
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"Pennsylvania, we do not need four more years of that. We don’t need four more years of arrogance and bumbling and bluster and division. America is ready to turn the page. We are ready for a better story. One that helps us work together instead of turning against each other. Pennsylvania, we’re ready for President Kamala Harris."
++BLACK FRAMES++
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"And, and the good news is Kamala Harris is ready to do the job. This is a leader who has spent her life fighting on behalf of people who need a voice and a champion."
++BLACK FRAMES++
4. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"Kamala is as prepared for the job as any nominee for president has ever been. That’s who Kamala is."
++BLACK FRAMES++
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"And the reason some people think, wow, I don’t know. I remember that economy when he (Donald Trump) first came in being pretty good. Yeah, it was pretty good because it was my economy."
++BLACK FRAMES++
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"And if rounding up and deporting millions of desperate people and building the beautiful wall and didn’t matter whether some of those folks you rounded up were women and children. If that’s the answer to everything, well, why didn’t you (Donald Trump) solve the problem?"
++BLACK FRAMES++
7. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"I’m sorry gentlemen. I’ve noticed it especially with some men who seem to think Trump’s behavior of bullying and of putting people down is a sign of strength. I am here to tell you, that is not what real strength is."
++BLACK FRAMES++
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Barack Obama, (D) former U.S. President:
"Real strength is about working hard and carrying a heavy load without complaining. And telling the truth even when it’s inconvenient. Real strength is about helping people who need it and standing up for those who can’t always stand up for themselves. That is what we should want for our daughters and for our sons and that is what I want to see in a President for the United States of America."
9. Obama waving on stage, end of speech
