Reaction from NYSYR Chairman Peter Giunta following the second presidential debate

By September 11, 2024Statements

“Congratulations to President Donald Trump on his masterful performance and victory in tonight’s presidential debate. It is once again clear that he is the only candidate in this race with a decisive vision to put America’s working families first and restore our nation’s prosperity and security.

After Joe Biden’s embarrassing shellacking in the first debate, Democrats desperately attempted to save their sinking ship by coronating Kamala Harris as their nominee — but, in New York and across the country, voters know the harsh reality that has been the disastrous Biden-Harris agenda. They won’t allow the wool to be pulled over their eyes!

From skyrocketing inflation to the out-of-control migrant crisis, poll after poll shows that Americans of all ages, backgrounds, and political beliefs feel this country is headed in the wrong direction. Though an improvement over Biden’s incoherent performance earlier this summer, Harris’s performance tonight underscores exactly why Americans cannot trust her to lead: she has been tested and proven to be woefully unprepared.

As young voters, we are responsible for our own future, which is why we are working so hard to recruit, train, and elect a new generation of Republicans across New York that will embrace President Trump’s common-sense agenda. Our future is on the ballot this November and we aren’t settling for anything short of total victory.“
