The Hispanic crowd at Friday’s White House Hispanic Heritage Month reception chanted, “Four more years!” when President Donald Trump was introduced.

“Everybody here: Hispanic or Hispanic-American – who isn’t?” Trump asked the crowd, drawing applause, acknowledging one “man of faith” who identified himself as non-Hispanic.

“I will always be with you,” Trump promised Hispanic Americans, adding, “And, I think you know that, maybe, better than anybody knows it”:

“Well, thank you all for being here today. And I’m delighted to once again celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with you at the White House. Right?

(Applause.) “Everybody here — Hispanic and/or Hispanic American — who isn’t? (Applause.) Do we have anybody? Do we have anybody who isn’t? I don’t think so. How are you? Great man of faith. Great. “Hispanic Americans have been a big part of our national story from the very, very beginning of our country. You work hard. You raise your strong and beautiful families. You care for your neighbors. (Applause.) You start businesses, you create jobs, and you teach your children to love our country and to cherish our God-given freedom.

I will always be with you, and I think you know that, maybe, better than anybody knows it. (Applause.) All of our citizens — every single day, we’re fighting for you. We’re putting your needs, your families, and your futures first. We’re putting America first. We’re putting the people in this room — we’re putting you first. All right?”

Trump, then, invited Vice President Mike Pence to speak. Pence told the crowd that the Trump Administration is with them as they continue the fight for “faith and family and freedom” in America:
