I've been watching the debate about the new Q format and I was thinking about my personal favorite key takeaways and if there are any others out there that are also notable enough to be included I'd love to hear them.<br><br>But first, a few things. Please be respectful to each other. Even if you are a Trump supporter, we are not here to attack you for having an opinion. Thank you for your input. Also, there's a few rules to be included on a takeaway. It has to be from a reliable news source, or from Trump himself. It also has to be a direct quote and it is preferred if you include the date. Also, there's a few things we don't want. We don't want any random anecdotes or hearsay. We want facts. Also, we don't want to include anything about Israel because a lot of the times that is conflated with anti-Semitic beliefs, which we can't confirm on a mass scale, so we'd rather not include it. Also, we're only including information up to Biden's inauguration. We have to have a time limit, so we decided to end it there.<br><br>With all of that said, here are a few of my favorites. Please feel free to add your own takeaways, and I'll make sure to add them to this list.<br><br>"Go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came." (2019)<br><br>“If Obama had been a good president and delivered for African Americans they wouldn’t be gunning for his legacy so bad!,” he wrote. “But they know he didn’t deliver so they are trying to take it away from him.” (2020)<br><br>"My great-great-grandfather came to this country in 1885 from Germany. That’s when Germany was a great country. You know who felt badly about it? Nobody." (2020)<br><br>“My great-great-grandfather came to this country in 1885 from Germany. You know who felt badly about it? Nobody.” (2020)<br><br>“If you have a garden and you put it in a Christian neighborhood, if you put it in a Muslim neighborhood, if you put it in a nice neighborhood, a horrible neighborhood, very bad, you’ll have the same kind of garden.” (2016)<br><br>“Black guys count my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are little short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.” (1997)<br><br>“Well, someone’s doing the raping,” Trump told O’Reilly. “I mean, somebody’s doing it. … Well, something’s going on, and it’s not good for our country, and it’s not good for the people that are coming into our country.” (2015)<br><br>"In recognition of the atrocious conditions, in recognition that these conditions are the fault of homeland governments and of the United States government for not being prepared and not having a humane process in place for people to legally present themselves for asylum, the United States Government should provide full restorative care," (2019)<br><br>"Shithole countries...I think he meant shithole governments and economies, not the people. But he was right." Turner said in an interview with Hill.TV's "Rising" on Tuesday. (2018)<br><br>"We are indeed in a battle for America’s soul, and I know if every one of us in the fight does our part, we will win this fight, but it won’t be easy." (2020)<br><br>"In Florida you have a lot of votes for Democrats, you can see it, in many of these Hispanic communities, you have Cuban-Americans, you have Puerto Ricans, you have people from the Dominican Republic, in Florida, you have highly educated, you have big league, highly educated, professionals, and you also have a lower education, less successful, less economically flush Hispanics, the Cuban-Americans, Puerto Ricans, they tend to be more educated, more successful, more professionals, in key areas, they tend to be more Republicans, they tend to be more conservative, they have been since the mid 1960s, they are very conservative, in Florida, they are very Republican, and then you have these other communities, from Central America, South America, Dominican Republic, they tend to be more Democrat, they tend to be more liberal, they tend to be less successful, less educated, less professionals, and you have areas in Florida, where you have Cuban-American districts, where you have a huge amount of highly educated professionals, and you have other districts in Florida, where you have mainly lower-income, less educated, Hispanic communities, from other countries, who moved to Florida, more recently." (2016)<br><br>"You know, it really has to do with being a winner. It has to do with being a champion. It has to do with being somebody that the people really respect and admire." (2016)<br><br>"No human being would ever think about doing that. Maybe in the history of the world, no human being would even think about it, to be honest with you. These are the people that are taking advantage of our country right now. They are without their parents — they have no parents. And they’re being brought up here for a reason. They’re being brought up for a vote. That’s why they’re being brought up." (2020)<br><br>“Well, the country is full,” he said. “You can’t keep track anymore. You have people coming up, and you don’t even know who they are.” (2019)<br><br>"We have people coming into the country or trying to come in, we're stopping a lot of them, but we're killing a lot of them with the coronavirus coming in over the southern border," Trump said. "Mexico tends to send up to the border people that have problems, that have disease, that have - we don't want - and I'm not going to let the country - and the people don't want - and the people won't stand for it." (2020)<br><br>“These aren’t people. These are animals.” (2018)<br><br>“Well, just so you understand, I’m the best thing that’s ever happened to the Secret Service,” Trump said. “I’m the best thing that’s happened, by a factor of a million percent.” (2020)<br><br>"You catch a burglar, and of course they don’t even get prosecuted because it’s too much politics involved. But you catch a burglar, a lot of times, it’s a minority. Let’s not kid ourselves.” (2020)<br><br>Trump was talking about a rally he held on the eve of the midterms in Fort Wayne, Indiana, when a member of the crowd struck a protester. "That’s what happens when you speak plainly. You know, nobody speaks plainly. Nobody. Nobody dares. Nobody dares," Trump said. (2019)<br><br>"Then you also have people coming in and they are flowing in from the southern border. You have, you know, people coming in, mai— a lot of them are good people, a lot of them, I know, are bad people. And you see it all the time on the news." (2020)<br><br>Trump called Biden "a criminal" who is "letting thugs take over our nation<br><br>"We have to give the police the back-up they need. If Biden gets in they will end cash bail, release 400,000 additional inmates, and abolish Lean Sentencing and Armed Career Criminal laws. There won’t be anything left." (2020)<br><br>President Trump says the demand to defund law enforcement is a "fad" and that it's a "mistake" because it will allow crime to flourish.

I don’t know what they’re interested in, but they’re not interested in law and order.” (2020)<br><br>“Joe Biden would destroy this country, but look, I’m not saying anything, and I’m not saying anything, because I don’t want to insult anybody. But I will say the democrats, they’re not interested in law and order, and the republicans are, and that’s why they better get out and vote.” (2020)<br><br>"Law and order, it means so much, and that's what we have to have." (2020)<br><br>"Law and order, we need law and order. If we don't have law and order, you can't have a country." (2020)<br><br>"We need law and order." (2020)<br><br>"Law and order are the building blocks of the U.S. success. They’re the foundation of every prosperous and very moral society.” (2020)<br><br>"You know, the only people that are not interested in cleaning our country up and making it great are the Democrats. They’re not interested. I don’t know what they’re interested in, but they’re not interested in law and order, which is the same thing." (2020)<br><br>"And for all those that say, 'Oh, no, you shouldn't say that,' I say, 'You have to say that,' because this is where we go when we allow our country not to have law and order...This is what you get when you allow people to riot and burn and destroy and hurt innocent people and kill innocent people." (2020)<br><br>"And we have the best when it comes to police and law enforcement. These are - I know so many, and they’re such great people. And they’re under siege. They’re under siege by these politicians, who don’t want to talk law and order because they think it’s bad for their election, because the other side wants no law and order. They want no police. They don’t want law and order. And that’s what you get." (2020)<br><br>“Put the names of those
