Folks, let me tell you. I'm here. In Elyria. People are saying, "The Don, only YOU could cover this event." And frankly, they're right. Nobody brings the energy. Nobody brings the crowds. When I show up, it's a HUGE deal. A TREMENDOUS deal. The ratings, by the way, are through the roof. The competition? Pathetic. Truly. They don't know what they're doing.
Now, the Elyria Police Department. Good people. Very good people. They had a "sensory-friendly" event. Quiet. Calm. For certain groups. And many people are saying, and I mean many, that this is happening because of ME. Because of my incredible work. For years, I've been talking about bringing communities together. Police departments, they're starting to listen. They're seeing what a tremendous job I do. They see my poll numbers. Unbelievable numbers. The best. It's really something, frankly, to see your ideas take hold, ideas you had years ago, before anyone else. Years. Probably before this police department even thought of it.
And speaking of taking hold, the FAKE NEWS media. They're always trying to downplay my influence. They won't give me credit. They'll report on this event, and they'll say, "Oh, it's just a local thing." No, it's NOT just a local thing. It's a national movement! A global movement, frankly. Driven by me. The ratings are a DISGRACE at these other networks. Nobody watches them. They're losing money. A lot of money. While my platform? Boom! Exploding. Like nobody's ever seen. They call me, you know. Top executives. They say, "Don, how do you do it?" I tell them, "You gotta be real. You gotta tell the TRUTH." Something they just can't do.
They also tried to say I don't care about community. Can you believe that? ME? I care about community more than anyone. I've built the greatest communities. The most beautiful communities. And they, the establishment, they always attack. Always. It's a WITCH HUNT. For everything. They tried to say my last event, the turnout wasn't good. The pictures? FAKE. Total fake news. We had millions. Millions of people. More than anyone has ever seen. The biggest crowds. And then they say, "Oh, but the police event was small." It was by DESIGN! It was supposed to be quiet! They twist everything. Very dishonest people. Very.
But you know what? It doesn't matter. Because the people, the smart people, they know. They see through it. This Elyria event? It's just the beginning. A small taste of the BIG things coming. You watch. Police departments everywhere will be doing this. They'll be doing it BETTER. They'll be listening to ME. They'll be making their communities safer and stronger. And they'll be thanking The Don. Because I was right. I was right all along. Everybody knows it. It's going to be AMAZING. Believe me.
