This is so great we did this as a quickie. We wanted to come into this area. We're staying here tonight. And I know you have a baseball game, and you have a big basketball game. We're gonna go really quickly tonight, but we're gonna say one thing: we're going to make America great again. Remember that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Make…America…great…again. Because that's what matters.
So, I brought somebody very, very special along…–­THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. I wonder who that could be. I wonder. And…she's…an incredible woman. She's…an incredible mother. She loves her son Barron so much. And…just uh…really…something special. And I have to say: she will make…an unbelievable…first lady. So, I'd like to introduce my wife, Melania. Come! Thank you! Thank you! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
MRS. MELANIA TRUMP INTERVENES.
MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.33.31:
 
So beautiful! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. She said, uh…“do you mind? I wrote something. Coming out, I wrote something. Do you mind if I say it?”.
I said, “not at all. Should I read it?”.
She says, “I don't want you to read it. I don't want you to read”…­–THE CROWD BOOS. APPARENTLY, THERE IS A PROTESTER. THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Thank you very much.
So, I just…I really wanna thank…I wanna thank Melania for that, that was very special. You know…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…Wisconsin's a really special place, and…we've been all over today. Speeches all over. We had one before. Thousands and thousands of people standing outside of an airplane hangar, because the hangar was packed. And we had another one in the morning, and…uh…it's been an amazing day, and…some phenomenal results. You see what's happening with the polls, boom! Like a rocket ship. It's like a rocket…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I guess I just heard when I walked in. One [poll] just came out there, we’re ten points up. But don't worry about that! Don't…pretend you didn't hear that. Go out and vote tomorrow, okay? Go out and vote tomorrow! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, I always tell. I used to say this to politicians that run that’d be friends of mine. I’d say, “pretend you're a little bit behind, okay’ That way you work hard. You never…you never forget”.
But, you know, there's somebody that was…I saw…just a little while ago in the audience. A very special…woman. An incredible…woman. And, Melania just said hello, and met her. It was so taken. And…she represented you so beautifully, and some of you know who she is, many of you know who she is. But she was Miss Wisconsin. She has…one of the most…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY–…incredible spirits that I've ever seen. She's got a husband, and a son. His son is absolutely…magnificent. And she loves him more than anything that you can imagine. And, she's going through a very hard time. And she has been so supportive, and so…like just incredible of what we're all, what we're trying to do. Not me! I'm…a messenger. What we're trying to do, make America great again, and…bring it back. And…stop letting the world take advantage of us, both militarily…; I mean, we don't win anymore! We don't win anymore! We don't win a trade; we don't want with the military; we pay for everybody else's military; we…we don't know what we're doing!
And she saw it, and she was here early. And…she knows that we're…going to take care of our people, and it's gonna be America first. It’s gotta be America first! We have no choice …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We have no choice.[MGF1] 
And she's with a…friend of hers, who's very well-known: uh…Chelsea Cooley, who was a tremendous, tremendous…woman, and…and…uh…just an amazing…person; also a great singer! But, I won't even mention that, because Chelsea would be the last to wanna have people know that. Chelsea is…such a great friend of Melissa Young. And Melissa Young, I just wanna bring her and Chelsea onto the stage, and maybe…Melissa would like to say something, and Chelsea. But just…this is just a…an…un believable woman. So, could I ask Melissa to come up on stage, please? Okay? Thank you…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Thank you everybody.
MS. CHELSEA COOLEY INTERVENES.
THE CROWD CHANTS ‘PRESIDENT TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY.
MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.38.36:
Thank you. I'll tell you, that's an amazing story. And…uh…just an incredible story, and we're gonna make sure that…uh…it goes as well as it can.
She was…uh…so amazing, the way she walked up here, and…and just spoke from the heart. And we all have to speak for the heart…and from the heart. And, [do] you notice? [There are] No teleprompters. We don't have teleprompters. We wanna do it right from here, and from here! And from here! …–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT HIS BRAIN.
But I just wanna…uh…I saw Melissa, and I said, “I have to have you up”. Because…uh…her story's an amazing story. And it's a story of courage. And…we're gonna work with her family, and we're gonna make sure everything goes well. Okay. Thank you all very much…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, in coming over today…uh…and in going through a few of them, I…I said to…a few of the folks, “I've gotta explain what's happening”, because our country is being…decimated; by stupidity; by bad deals; by…horrible trades. By…TPP, which Cruz wants badly. And [it] is gonna destroy Wisconsin…–THE CROWD BOOS. This Trans-Pacific Partnership is a disaster. Cruz is pushing it hard. Kasich! I don't think he's a…player here! Maybe the guy’s won and 32. He's won…–THE CROWD BOOS–…and it was his own state! And if I would have campaigned there two more days instead of staying in Florida, I would have won, in my opinion, Ohio. He's one…in 32.
Now, in all fairness, Jeb Bush was doing a lot better than that. They were all…many people were doing better! It's called you get out. He's taken my votes! We have to get over 50 percent! And how do you do that?
You…look at a certain point in life what you do is you say, “I'm one and 32. In other words, I've won 1 out of 32 states”…­–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. And you do what Marco did, which was great; which was appropriate…–SOMEBODY FROM THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE. MR. TRUMP GIGGLES–…and you do what Rand Paul did. And you do it a lot of them did! And you get out!
And by the way, if you want, you can put your name up and you can say, “I wanna run, and you go to the convention and you run!”. But it would be nice to see…cause, I'll tell you what: he takes my votes away much more than he does Cruz. And I don't like it. I don't think it's right. I don't think it's appropriate. But, you know what? If we have to live with him, we still beat him easily. Okay, folks? I mean okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But you know, Kasich voted for NAFTA! NAFTA was a disaster for Wisconsin! And it was a disaster for our country! Ted Cruz wants TPP. And…it is…going to make NAFTA look like peanuts; what they're doing to us, with those documents…; and Cruz is the one that insisted that we can't talk about money manipulation, which is devaluation of currencies in the agreement. He wouldn't let them do it! He's the one that fought currency devaluation! That's the single…biggest…tool…that other countries have…for taking our business, taking our money, and taking our jobs. And we can't let this go on any longer.
Now, they're controlled…by their packs. They're controlled by the people that put up their campaign contributions. They're controlled…you know, all the lobbyists in Washington? They have signs in their forehead. It's like stamped into their forehead: “I take care of Cruz”. They're specialists. “I take care of Kasich”. “I take care of…Hillary!”. Oh, Hillary, ay, ay, ay! …–THE CROWD BOOS. “[I] take care of Hillary”.
So, we can't let it happen anymore. We can't let it happen anymore. It's time…we…you know, Obama used to say “time for change”? I'll say it's time for change, but real change this time, not that change. Real change…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Obama yesterday, President Obama, yesterday…for the first time, he started having reservations about the Iran deal. I could have told him that…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY–…six months ago, nine months ago…long before it was signed! The ink isn't even dry and now he's finally starting to understand [that] it was a big, beautiful mistake, and it's only going to get worse. And by the way, Iran is getting worse! They were supposed to come into the community…[do yo] remember? What a bunch of babies! Are we babies? Are we babies? Hello over there! …–MR. TRUMP POINTS TO HIS RIGHT SIDE. They were supposed to come into the community, and they were supposed to …you know, get involved!
Now, you see, [that] they just ordered 118 Airbus jets. Those are the big jets. Airbus jets 100 and…; they didn't order Boeing! The reason…one of the reasons is, we restrict them from spending. So, we give them a 150…billion dollars, and they're not even allowed to give us money by investing, by…buying…our products, okay!? How…crazy…are we? How much longer is it going to last? When are we gonna get smart? When are we gonna stop…? We as a country are being ripped off! We are being ripped off by virtually…every…single…country in the world, okay? Whether it's militarily or trade. We don't win anymore! We can't win with the military. We can't beat ISIS!
Can you imagine General McArthur, or General George Patton? They say get rid of ISIS? What…what do you think? “Let's see, it’s…what time is it now?”…­­–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. It's so sad to see…what's happening…to our country, and we're gonna turn it around. And we're gonna change it. And we're gonna make it rich again. We're gonna make it strong again…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So…and so many different elements. And I've been talking about trade. I always talk about trade, because when I announced on June 16th, coming down the escalator with Melania, it was like the Academy Awards. There was so many cameras…I've never seen anything like it's. So…many…cameras. And I took a deep breath. And I said, “let's go!”. Because we have to do it…–THE CROWD CHEERS. You know, it takes guts. Running for president, believe me, takes guts! It takes a lot of guts! Believe me. And…and even for the politicians, they run. At least they're out on the line, and then you see the dishonesty. You see where I won Louisiana. And then I find out that I'm not supposed to get as many delegates as a person that I beat. What kind of stuff is that!? …–THE CROWD BOOS.
And somebody said, “well it’s a rule, and another rule, and…”. I don't care about rules, folks. I go out. I campaign. We win. We win. We get the delegates! Right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But in the meantime, we have millions more votes than Cruz. We've beaten them in most of the states. I mean, we're just…winning so much. And, we're winning by almost 300 delegates. So, we're doing great. And I think we close it out before the…uh…you know, before the convention. I think we actually close it out before the convention. And…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…that's like a prizefighter. You know, they go into unfriendly territory. And the champ, and he goes in. And they say, “what do you think? You may have an unfriendly decision”.
He says, “no, when you not come out, there's no unfriendly decisions”…–THE CROWD CHEERS. If we get the delegates, we’ve…pulled out a knockout. And that's the way it's gonna be, and I think…I can see that happening because more, and more people are calling; they wanna get on board.
Frankly, when I looked at…you know, what happened, a friend of mine, who's a great…one of my great friends. He lives in…right down the road…I mean, not very far from here. And he said, “with Wisconsin, you're gonna win”.
I said, “well…what do you think? But I'm not seeing polls that are great! I'm a little bit down…! I'm down in some…! I'm a little down on another…”.
He says, “no, no. You're gonna win, but you have to be there! You have to come in,[and] you have to talk to the people”, like we did this afternoon at the hangar…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And he said, “you're gonna win! I mean, you're gonna win!” And he's a very smart guy, I wanna tell you. [A] great guy. But he said, “you gotta come in”. And we've been making…I've been making speeches: three today, four yesterday, three or four the other day…; we're here constantly: You're gonna get so sick of me! You're gonna say, “oh, get him the hell out of here!”…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. No, we’re gonna…;
But we are…we are making so much progress and, it's been…so…inspiring to see the people. I mean, look at…even you, people . You know sit down! If you want you can. Let us stay up! Stand up! What the heck!? We don't wanna sit down. Hey, we've got plenty of time to sit down, right!? We've got plenty of time. But I do appreciate that. That's a sign of affection, and it's a sign of respect, and I really do appreciate it. That's really good…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, we have to bring our country back, and so many different things. Uh…with…China, we have a trade deficit of 500…billion…dollars. A year! …-THE CROWD BOOS TIMIDLY.
With Mexico, we will build a wall; we will have strong borders; strong borders. Believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We have a trade deficit of 58 billion dollars a year. The wall’s gonna cost 10 billion dollars to build. And people, the politicians are saying, “how can you possibly get them to pay!?”. Let me tell you something. Folks, when you…and we have some good business people in this audience. When you have…a 58…billion…dollar deficit, and you have a 10 billion dollar wall? It's real easy! And that's on a yearly basis, the 58! It's…really…easy!
And they don't understand it! They said, “but, how do you get them to pay!?”
I said, “it's so easy”, and you understand. Just…rely on me, okay? Rely…; [it’s] so easy. That's so easy…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And we're gonna have a strong border.
You know, two days ago I was greatly honored, because the Border Patrol, the folks that do a great job…and they're told to stand back, but they don't wanna stand back! They wanna do their job properly! They're proud people. They're incredible people. Frankly, before the wall goes up, we might not even need the wall, but we're building it anyway, okay? We're building anyway. Believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But the Border…the Border Patrol people are…unbelievable people. And it's 15,000 people…gave me an endorsement two days ago. And I didn't ask for it! I didn't know! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [It’s] First time…first time…they've ever done it! Right!? [It’s] First time they've ever done it and they gave me an endorsement, and…it's so important.
Now, Sheriff Joe from…Arizona…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You know, I won Arizona really big, and Sheriff Joe was with me, and it was incredible, and…and we love it.
Now look, we have to have strong borders. We can't let the Syrians come in that we have no idea who they are, where they're coming from…we don't know if they're Syrians! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. This could be the all-time great Trojan horse! Who knows!? I have as big a heart as anybody. We wanna help them. We wanna build safe zones in Syria. I wanna get the Gulf states to pay for it. The Gulf states have nothing but money. We don't have money. We will run it. We will do a good job. We'll get it done, but let’s [have] somebody else pay for it for a change! We can't do it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Now…okay. So, who wants…? The…I keep getting these requests. You know, Al. Green, the great Al Green, wrote ‘The Snake’. How many people have heard the snake? How many people? Oh! Do you wanna hear ‘The snake’!? Do you wanna hear it!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS. I mean, people love it, and I love it! Because it says what's going to happen to us if we're not careful. And this…really pertains…to allowing…people…into…our country…that we know are going…we're gonna have problems! We're gonna have huge problems! Allowing people in…from areas of the world…; we don't know where they come from! We don't know…where their documents are. They say they don't have documents! There are no papers, no nothing. We let them in…how stupid can we be!?
So, this is called ‘The Snake’. And…I think it's pretty good, all right? So we'll give it a shot. [Are] You ready for this? A couple of you…a couple of you have heard it, but some of you…haven't.
“On her way…to work one morning,
down the path…along the lake,
a tender-hearted woman saw a poor…half-frozen snake!
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew,
‘Oh, well!’, she cried. ‘I'll take you in, and I'll take care of you!’
 
‘Take me in, oh, tender woman! Take me in, for heaven's sake! Take me in, oh tender woman!’, cried the broken snake.
 
She wrapped him up all cozy, in a curvature of silk,
and then, laid him by the fireside, with some honey, and some milk.
Now she hurried home from work that night.
As soon as she arrived, she found that pretty snake she’d taken in had been…revived!
 
‘Take me in, oh, tender woman; take me in, for heaven's sake;
take me in, oh, tender woman’, sighed the broken snake.
 
Now she clutched him in her bosom, ‘you're so beautiful!’, she cried,
but if I hadn't brought you in by now, heaven’s sake, you might have died’.
Now she stroked his pretty skin, and then she kissed him…and held him tight.
But instead of saying ‘thank you!’, that snake gave her…a vicious bite! …–THE CROWD CHEERS.
 
‘Take me in, oh, tender woman; take me in, for heaven's sake;
take me in, oh, tender woman’, sighed the very, very healthy snake.
 
‘You saved me’, cried the woman! Isn’t that incredible? Isn’t that incredible?
 
‘I saved you!’, cried the woman; ‘and you've bitten me, heaven’s why!?
You know your bite is poisonous and now…I'm going to die!’,
 
‘Oh, shut up, silly woman!’, said the reptile with a grin.
‘You knew damn well I was a snake…before you took me in!’ …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
Right? That’s what’s happening to our country, folks. That's what's happening to our country. And we can't let it happen. We have to be smart. We have to be vigilant. We have to be strong. And if we're not…we're not gonna have a country. And we need borders. And we're gonna have borders. And we need great trade deals. And we're gonna make great trade deals. And we can't let Mexico…and I have great respect for Mexico, and I respect their leaders. But we can't let Mexico, and China, and…any country you wanna name…steal our business, steal our jobs.
 
When you look at what's happening in Wisconsin…and you see it. The reason I beat your governor, and I beat him badly, was…I just read off the statistics! I just read…–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY–…all I did…I stood up and I read statistics. You're losing jobs, you’re get…; and, you know, Stephen came out before me and he gave you some of the information. So, I'm not gonna bore you with it. But it's doing…it's very average, okay? It's very average. Our country is less than average. Our country is doing so badly. And…it's just one of those things. And we have to smarten up. We have to get really tough. We have to get so, so, so vigilant, and not be so politically correct…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We have to do what's right for our country![MGF2] 
 
When…when the great Ford Motor Company, great company, when they built a two and a half billion dollar plant in Mexico…; when Nabisco moves its…massive…plant to…Mexico, from Chicago…–THE CROWD BOOS–…we…we can't let it happen. When Carrier air-conditioners…as you know, they just announced they're moving to Mexico. Uh…Pfizer's moving to Ireland.
 
But let me just tell you. So, I watch the politicians, and they have no business instincts. But more importantly, they are taken care of ! You know, a lot of friends come up to me and they say, “Donald, let me ask you a question. These politicians are really…are they that dumb!?”.
I said, “no, they're not actually that dumb. Some are. But they're not actually that dumb”…–­THE CROWD LAUGHS. “They’re all taken care of by the special interests”. And, when you want something done, you see certain people in Washington…; hey, who is better than me!? I mean, take a look at me! I was…before…June…16th, I was a part of the establishment! And…they will do…not what's right for you, but they will do what's right for the company they represent, or the country they represent; and the United States continues to get ripped off, ripped off, ripped off.
 
And…a lot of times they'll say, “how could a deals …be…so stupidly made!? These people are so stupid!
 
I said, “they're not stupid. They're doing it for themselves!”. They're doing it because they want campaign contributions. They're doing it because they want money put in their PACs. They are totally controlled…by the money. Believe me, they are totally controlled by the money. And that's not good for our country, okay? That's not good, because terrible things are happening, and we're getting weaker, and weaker. Hundreds of thousands, and even millions of jobs of being taken out.
 
You look at the jobs we have, even in Wisconsin! I mean, you see the jobs, the manufacturing. It’s all so down and so gloomy. And throughout the United States. And, it's a disaster what's going on with our country. We're not gonna have jobs left. And they do it with manipulation of currency. They do it with guile. They do it with so many different elements that our people don't even know what's happening. Our politicians, in most cases, don't even know what's happening. And when they do know what's happening, and they let it happen…it's even worse.
 
So, I'm not taking money from anybody. I'm self-funding my campaign…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIVDLY. And we’re…we're going to get it. We're going to get it stopped!
 
Now, I…I look at this U.S.-manufactures…I mean, just look at this! Look at these charts! And just…and you can see them…–MR. TRUMP SHOWS A PAPER WITH GRAPHS–…I think you can all see. This is where we're going! You know that's that good, right!? This is where we're going.

There was one that I just saw. I just got this! It's like incredible. Look at this: this is us manufacturing jobs rapidly decline. It’s year 2000. Look at that chart! Another couple of years, [and] there won't be any jobs! And the jobs we have now are bad jobs! These are bad jobs! These aren't good jobs. And everybody admits that! Even the other side said, “we agree. They're bad jobs”.
 
And the number that they talk about when they say 5 percent unemployment…? It's a fictitious number! When you stop looking for a job, you're considered statistically…employed! It's…a number that was made up years ago, probably by presidents, but certainly by politicians, to make them look good. To make them look really…good. Like the economy. The economy is not good! The economy is bad! We're sitting on a bubble. The banks have money. They give it to you for nothing if you're rich. If you're not rich, that's when you need the money. They don't loan it to you! So the…people can't do jobs. Probably here, you have some great companies, some really good, smaller companies! You can't get the banks to give you money. The banks are controlled by the regulators.
 
The…the system, that this country is run under, is out…of…control. And we're gonna change it! We're gonna bring back the jobs. We're gonna bring back our companies! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And you know, I've had such a response! And the reason I've had that response is because of that. And then I look at the ads today, I'm…I’m in…my hotel, and I'm looking at the ads, and Cruz makes up this ads: “we're gonna bring back jobs, we…!”. He's using my same language![MGF3] 
Here's the problem: they don't know where to begin. They don't know where to begin. And if they did…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘LYIN TED!’–…lyin Ted! Lyin Ted! Lyin…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.[MGF4] 
 
He comes up…I…and did you ever see a guy like this!? Look what he did with Ben Carson. Ben Carson, who endorsed me by the way, is a great guy. And lyin Ted…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…lyin Ted…[do you] remember in Iowa? He said, “Ben has left the race. He's left the race”. He's in the middle of…this was an election day! It's not like two days before, or day after! “He's left the race”. He said, during the election, “he left the race”, okay? And people believed him. And thousands of votes were cast…not for Ben, but for…Ted Cruz! It's pure…–THE CROWD BOOS–…no, no it's pure deception! It's lying!
 
And then there were many other things. And actually, during one of the debates, Marco Rubio looked over, [and] he says, “you're a liar”.
 
And I said, “you know, I've never heard a politician call another politician a liar, so now I can do it”. So we call him ‘lyin Ted! L-Y-I-N-apostrophe…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It's crazy! It's crazy! I mean, what he…what he does, and what he says is just terrible! And…you know, I've met…a lot tougher people, but I've never met any human being that lied as much as him! And he comes in, and [did] you notice? The tremendous evangelical support I have. I have Jerry Falwell Jr., from Liberty University…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. I have all of these people. I have such incredible support! And the evangelicals, he thought he was gonna get the evangelicals. But, they don't…like…liars! And they see he lies so much!
 
[Have] you ever seen him? He walks up, and he walks in with the Bible…held high! Right? Held high! And then he starts to lie! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Boy, he is bad! So, anyway. I don't think that…you're gonna…fall for that. I really don't think that…anybody can fall. He doesn't talk! He debates! Everything's like…you know, so…uh…just…; I said, “Ted, take it easy. Just talk. Talk! Talk!” …–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
 
But, we are…uh…we're doing really well. The whole thing is…just working out. And, I loved being here. You know, I've been here for a long time now. I've been here for…–THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHINBG INAUDIBLE–…thank you. I've been here for a long time. I'm gonna stay…uh…we're gonna stay tomorrow. We're gonna have some…uh…I think I'm doing FOX & Friends tomorrow morning. I'm doing some shows tomorrow. We're gonna do some other shows. and we're gonna be around, and …we're gonna make sure we wanna bring this home.
 
If we can…you know, we have a movement going on, folks. And it's a movement of intelligence, actually. It's a movement of common sense, because that's all it is. We're not gonna let…Carrier make air-conditioners, fire all its people, move to Mexico, make air conditioners, [and] then come in and take the money out of the country. It's not gonna happen anymore.
 
And I'm a free trader. And you know, they say, “he is not a…”; [do you] remember Jeb Bush? “He is not a conservative”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
 
I said, “what?”. I am a conservative! But you know what? I believe in free trade, but when you have free trade, you need smart people…running your side of the free trade! If you don't have smart people, or if you have people like Ted Cruz that are totally controlled by the people that give him the money…and they're controlled by the establishment! I mean, look…look at the establishment! This guy…in his whole life, didn't know what the word establishment meant. Now, you have all these people going because they say, “oh, man! Trump is terrible! He doesn't want any of our money”.
I had one friend that came into my office…I don't think I've ever said this before. He came into my office, [and] he wants to give me millions of dollars. I said, “I can't take your money. I don't want the money. I'm self-funding”.
 
“No, no, no! You gotta be kidding!”. He didn't even know! He thought I was kidding! He wanted to endorse me, wanted to support me.
 
I said, “no, no. I don't want”. Anyway, he was finally convinced I didn't want his money. And he's leaving. I said, “by the way what are you gonna do now?”
 
He said, “I'm gonna give it to another candidate”.
 
I said, “why?”. They're gamblers! They have to do it! It's like…it's like almost a disease! They have to do it! It's the craziest thing! He loves me! He wants to give me…probably close to ten million dollars, right?[MGF5]  I would have had the greatest super PAC in history if I would have taken all the money.
 
And my whole life…! You know, I've said this before. My whole life, as a businessperson, is this, right? It's okay. Nothing wrong with it. I take! I keep taking! I take and take! But now I'm gonna take for the United States. We're gonna take. We're not gonna be the stupid people anymore! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're not gonna be…the stupid…people anymore! We can't be! We can't be! And with NATO, when they don't pay…?
 
You know, I said [it]. I was asked a question by a Wolf Blitzer, a very fair question about NATO! Now, you know, I've been a businessman, world class! I filed my papers, they were phenomenal. Everybody says, “great, great, great!”. I built a great company. Very little debt; tremendous cash flow; some of the greatest assets in the world. And I tell you that only for one reason: that's the thinking we need in Washington now. We need some of that…thinking…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And Wolf Blitzer asked me a question on television! He said, “let me just ask you about NATO”. And he asked me about NATO. Now, I haven't been asked about NATO a lot, but I understand NATO and I understand common sense, and I'm like a smart person, like many of the people in this room, hopefully all of the people in this room. But he asked me about NATO. I said, “it's obsolete”. This is my first statement. And you know what? I’m the first one. Guys that study NATO, and good people…but they study NATO; and they say, “I don't believe it! What he just said, I never thought of that”. They study it! Because they're so into it that they don't realize.
 
Because…it was really put there…you had the Soviet Union, and now you have Russia, which is different, but…Russia is very powerful, so we can sort of say that's a balance, so we'll leave it. But, it doesn't really cover terrorism like it's supposed to. It doesn't have the right countries. I mean, many of the countries in there aren't…could…you know, that you associate with terrorism. And…so I said, “number one, it’s obsolete”.
 
I said, “number two, to the best of my knowledge, the United States pays far…too…much proportionately. And why are we always paying the bills to protect other people!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And…and the press, which is so…totally…dishonest, the press goes…headlines, the next day, “Trump desert want NATO! [He] Wants to disband NATO!”. And that's not what I said.
 
I said, “you gotta pay your bills”. And you know what? If they can't pay their bills, honestly? Uh…there should be…we’d…they gotta go. Because we can't do this. You know, this isn't 68 years ago. This isn't…you know, when it was originally formed…like many, many years ago; many decades ago. And you have to redo things! But it is interesting. Some of the…smartest people have said, “what Trump said is genius! It's obsolete!”. And you know what? It's true! There's a lot of people, a lot of countries [are] being given a free ride! We can't have the free rides anymore, folks.
 
Then we had…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE–…then we…thank you! Well, we need somebody with…that! …–MR. TRUMP SHOWS HIS BRAIN. We need so. And it is. It’s America first, folks. It’s America first…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
So then…then as you know, North Korea's a big problem. North Korea is a problem. A problem could be solved easily by China, but they don't wanna solve it, cause they wanna tweek us. They’re building in the South China Sea, [it] is a massive military fort. You know what's going on. They shouldn't be doing that. And they're taking our money. And, you know, they’re…they’re…you talk about the imbalance of trade; you talk about the kind of money …;
 
How about this? We owe China…1.7 trillion dollars. Now, they take our money. They take our jobs. And they…I…I love them. They’re fine. They’re great. I'm not angry at China! I'm angry at our people! At our leaders, for letting it happen! I don't…I'm not angry at China! If you can get away with it, you do it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY.
 
But they take our jobs, [and] they take our money. They take our money. They take everything. We owe them…1.7 trillion dollars. That's like sort of a magic act, isn't it amazing?
 
Japan…! They send cars by the…uh…millions! They come off those boats…! Los Angeles, I was there at the docks! I looked at the biggest boats you've ever seen! Biggest, greatest ships you've ever seen. The cars are pouring off the ships… ! We owe them 1.5 trillion dollars. It's like…well, how does this all happen, okay? How does it happen?
 
Here's the story, folks. We're gonna change your thinking. We're gonna be the smart people again. We're gonna be so smart. We're gonna be so…sharp! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
So, a lot of people don't know. We protect Japan! Do you know that? Does anybody know? You might know from…–INAUDIBLE, cuz you know; we protect Japan. We protect Germany. We protect South Korea. When you want a television set, who do you get it from? South Korea. Samsung, LG…; you got it from South Korea. So, we protect all the…and big ships they make…! These our monster, monster economies! We protect them! They don't pay…what they should be paying…for not having to have this massive military apparatus that we supply! And you know what!? We get that because we have people that don't know what they're doing in Washington, for many years! I mean, I'm not even blaming…Obama's the worst. He's the worst. The worst…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
I mean, when he just realizes…; I mean, he just realized…that the Iran deal is a bad deal! It just took him to realize…! I said, “oh, why didn't you listen to me two years ago!? Just two years ago!?”. If he would have listened…; can you imagine? Did you ever see a deal take so long? By the way, usually what a deal takes that long it's bad automatically. I can usually tell you that. But, anyway!
 
But, so we protect Japan. So, it comes out. They say, “what do you think of Japan?”.
 
I said, “look, I would have to tell Japan…”, and I'm talking about other nations also, cause I have great friends from Japan! I have great friends from South Korea! “We have to…go see it, talk to them, have a meeting with them…; we love protecting you”. We don't want them to arm, necessarily. But, you know, at some point…how long are we gonna do this!? So, we have to see them and we have to say, “you gotta help us out! You know we have this massive, massive amount of money that we have to get rid of; and we’re…cuz we are sitting on one of the worst bubbles you'll ever see, okay? Believe me! We've gotta straighten it out! We’ve gotta straighten out our trade deals. We gotta straighten out our military deals! We're taking care of all these countries!
 
So, we go to Japan. And here's what the news say. I said to the…the people…I was telling the people, and they said, “wow, that sounds good!”. We gotta take, [and] you gotta take care of us”.
 
Now, they'll probably say initially “no”. And we leave, and then they're gonna say “yes”. But if they don't say “yes”, you always have to be prepared to make a great deal to walk. You have to be! You can't say, “oh…!”.
 
The problem with the Iran deal…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS–…was that secretary Kerry was like…an amateur! He's uh…called amateur knight. He refused to walk! They were laughing at him in the streets of Iran. They were claiming…the deal as the greatest deal ever made…before it was even made! They’re saying, “this deal is unbelievable!” They were laughing at the Secretary of State of this country. They were laughing at the United States, saying that “this deal…is so great!”.
 
And they're dancing! [Do you] Remember burning the flag dancing? When they said dancing about a deal that I'm making…; when they said burning the American flag…? I'm out of there, “bye-bye, good luck!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And he just kept going back and I kept waiting. I kept…I wanted to call him. I wanted to call him. I wanted to say, “walk!”. Because every…single…thing.
 
He'd say, “we would like to get this”.
 
“No”.
 
“Oh, okay. You've got it”.
 
“We would like to get that”.
 
“No!”.
 
You know, the Persians are great negotiators. It's an unbelievable deal. But just yesterday, Obama…just yesterday, he brought it up, that he's very unhappy. And uh…I mean think of it…–THE CROWD BOOS­–…think of it. A 100…a 150 billion dollars. It's…it's the worst deal…! We didn't get our prisoners back! We should have had the prisoners back before we started negotiating…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…increase the sanctions…! Don't sit at the table…! Say, “you give our prisoners back or we're not starting!”. You leave.
 
They'll say, “no!”.
 
You leave. And what happens!? You double up the sanctions. Within 24 hours, they’d call you and they say, “you've got your prisoners”. That could have been years ago, right?
 
So we have people…that don't know what they're doing. Here's the story: …–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘WE NEED TRUMP!’–…you need Trump. You do. You need Trump. Forget it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You gotta have me. You do! I mean…you gotta have Trump.
 
You know, it's…it’s sort of interesting, because I see, when I turn on the television, I see these ads about myself by…crooked people! I see these ads. And they're mostly wrong! Some are a little bit…sometimes they're right, but they're all negative, you know. [MGF6] And I'm looking, I'm…watching this night…television, ad after ad in Florida. They spent 38 million dollars on negative ads, and I won in a landslide! I won this…does anybody read!? Does anybody watch television!? You know, it’s not much…it's not much for the advertising community .When you think they spent 38 million, a record number, in Florida! They spent…thousands and thousands of ads, nationwide. Listen to this one! 55,000 negative ads on me. Most of it was made up.
 
I'll give you one good example: we have the Club for Growth, which is…puff…forget them! The…these are…these are among the dumbest people that you'll ever meet…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. They come to my office. They want me to give them a million dollars. [A] Friend to ask…me… “please, see them”.
 
I said, “who are they?”.
 
“They're…Club for Growth”, whatever that means. So, they come to my office, [and] they ask me for a million dollars. I said, “uh…no thank you!”. And that's it. Uh…they then leave. They write me a letter! …which I posted, asking me for a million dollars.
 
I said, very nicely…I'm not a bad person. I said nicely, “no, thank you”. You know, I…you can be rich, but you don't have to be stupid, okay!? Why am I gonna give them a million dollars?
 
So, what happens is, all of a sudden I see their name all over the place, Club for Growth! And they talk about…you know, different…things. Ridiculous things. I mean, it's the worst ads. And by the way, one is a fraudulent ad! Because they say [that] if Cruz and Kasich got together, and you added their delegates…and they show the delegates, right!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. And you add them up…and I'm over here…–MR. TRUMP DRAWS A COLUMN ON THE LEFT IN THE AIR–…with…lot! And they said…and they add them up! And they show a graph that goes much higher than mine! And it's much lower than mine! They're a fraud! And what we did is, we told them to stop that ad! And that was a week ago! And we tweeted about it! And everybody's talking about it! And I…see it last night again! They're crooked.
 
So, here's what they just…it’s like a form of extortion, I guess, right? When you think of it? They come to your office. They ask for a million dollars. You don't give them the million dollars. They go out, [and] they do negative ads.
 
These are the people! You know, if these people about Trump…they call it like “no Trump”. What do they call that thing? They call it… “never Trump!”. Oh, you need Trump so badly, though! I was saying, “if they would work…if they would have worked so hard, so diligently against President Barack Hussein Obama”…okay? “…they would have beaten him and…they would have had great budgets…! They would have had everything they wanted…!”. But with him they faulted.
 
I always say, “Obama is the worst negotiator…I've ever seen!”. You look at the…–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY–…no…except with the Republicans! He gets everything he wants
I mean, you look at the Omnibus budget from three months ago. He got everything he wanted! Fund Obamacare; bring people into the country that shouldn't be here; he got everything he wanted! So, he is the worst negotiator worldwide.
 
We have…sergeant Bergdahl, right? We get Bergdahl, a traitor…­–THE CROWD BOOS–…no, no think of it! This is the same…this is a negotiation! We get Bergdahl, and they get…what do they get? Five…of the most coveted…killers that have been in jail for eight years in Gitmo, which we're not closing down by the way, okay? We're gonna run it…a lot better Bergdahl
 
So, we get Bergdahl, a traitor…who five or six, probably six…people were killed going out to try and get him back. He left! He's a traitor! So, we get Bergdahl, and…that's what we get. And they get…five people that are right now back on the battlefield, or soon to be back on the battlefield, trying to kill everybody in sight, including us, okay? We've gotta stop it! We've gotta stop it!
 
So, with Japan…I said, “they gotta…maybe we gotta walk”.
 
And, the next day headlines: “Trump doesn't wanna defend Japan! Trump wants Japan to get their nukes…!” Uh…okay. So, here's the story, folks. You have Japan. Japan is very concerned with North Korea. You know, number one, I like the way it is now but I want them to pay a lot more money, and they probably will, but if they don't…it's not so bad if they are…at heads! Maybe we're not supposed to get into that fight. That's a bad fight. Maybe we're not supposed to, okay? Okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
Same thing with South Korea! I mean, every time…he raises his head and he starts talking, every…single…time he raises his head, our ships start floating over, our planes start going over…; we do all sorts of exercise…; why don't we get out of this!? We have 28,000 soldiers on the line. So, we have to be taken care of.
 
Now, I'm talking…as a person…financially, okay? I'm also talking militarily, but I'm talking financially. We don't have a country that could do this anymore. Saudi Arabia, until the oil went down, and now they're still making a fortune; but Saudi Ra…Arabia was making a billion…dollars…a day! We protect Saudi Arabia! If we weren't there, Saudi Arabia wouldn't be there. If Saudi Arabia didn't have us for years, protecting them, they would have been gone long ago, as Saudi Arabia, somebody else would have it. Probably, maybe Iraq! Cause it would have come back.
 
And by the way, speaking of that, you know, I  was against going into Iraq. Everyone said, “oh, Trump is gonna be very tough”. I was against going into Iraq, from…the very…beginning…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…from…the very…beginning…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And…I'm gonna build our military bigger, stronger than ever before. But you know what? Hopefully we'll never have to use it, Nobody's gonna tell us what to do, though. We have to shape it up, because our military is totally…depleted…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
But if our politicians would have gone to the beach…for the last…number of years, many years, we would be…much stronger in a sense. We’d be much stronger! Because the Middle East is a disaster! You see the great migration. It's a…catastrophe! You see what's going on in Germany. It's a total mess, what she has done!
 
Can you imagine!? She was Person of the Year! I was supposed to be Person of the Year on Time magazine! She beat me out and she destroyed Germany! Can you believe this!? …–THE CROWD BOOS. That's not good! I wonder if Time magazine had that one to do over again what they'd say. I think I’d be in much better shape. Well, they've treated me nicely. I've been on the cover a lot! And the reason we're on the cover a lot is because we have a movement, the likes of which people have never seen.
 
So, here's the story…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…here's the story. You know, one of the great writers called me up and he said, “what you've done is incredible”.
 
I said, “no, no! I have to win”.
 
He said, “no, no. It makes no difference. If you win, if you lose, it doesn't matter. What you've done is down in the history books. You will be covered for all time. It's incredible”.
 
I said, “no sir, no sir. I have to win, because if I don't win…to me I will consider it a tremendous waste of time, and a waste of money! But a tremendous waste of time”.
 
So, here is the story. Here is the story: we're gonna take care of our Second Amendment. [It] Is being chipped, and chipped…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna get rid of Common Core! We're gonna bring education back local…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna repeal and replace Obamacare, which is a total catastrophe! You're gonna have great health insurance…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
We're gonna save your Social Security, and we're gonna save your Medicare! We are gonna save it! Because we're gonna make our country rich again! We're gonna bring back our jobs! We're not gonna let our jobs go! And we're gonna be able to afford [it]- You've been paying in it for a long time, and a lot of these guys wanted to be knocked to hell. It's not gonna happen, okay!? Remember that! It's not gonna happen…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
We're gonna start winning again, folks! We don't win anymore. We don't win anymore. We don't win with our military. We can't beat ISIS. We're gonna win. We're gonna knock the hell out of ISIS. We’re…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we don't win with our vets. Our vets are being treated worse than…illegal…immigrants. Our vets are being treated so unfairly! They’re great people. And other people…it…you know, the vets have endorsed me virtually unanimously. And, a lot of the vets will come up to me, [and] say, “you know, Mr. Trump, we follow closely what's going on. You're the only person that ever mentions the vets!”, right!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And Hillary Clinton recently said about the vets that they're being taken care of just fine. They're not being taken care of fine…–THE CROWD BOOS. They're not being taken. She said, “they're being taken care of just fine”. I know the vets. Nobody spent more time with the vets that are running, and we're gonna take…care…of our vets, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
We are going to tear up and make great, and very lucrative, and everybody's gonna be happy, including the other side, trade deals. I have the greatest people in the world for dealing. We use political hacks. They don't know what they're doing. They're dealing against…the smartest people in China; the smartest people in…Japan! The smartest people from all over the world, and our negotiators are political hacks, and we're not using them anymore. We're using the greatest businesspeople in the world, and we have them in this country. And they're endorsing me! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And, I know the best ones from the not-so-great ones. And we're gonna have great, great trade deals.
 
We're gonna have a strong…border! We're gonna have a real…border! Okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna have a wall. Mexico's paying for it. We're gonna have a wall. And we're gonna stop bad, bad things from…happening in this country, because if you look at what's going on; and you look at the tremendous crime; and you look at the drugs that are pouring across the border, it's…it…the drugs are pouring, like water. They're pouring across.
 
You know, when I won…New Hampshire's a special place to me, because they were the first victory I had. And, I won New Hampshire. I wasn't expected to win it. Jeb was expected to win it. And I won in a landslide. And I'd go around I'd see the people of New Hampshire, and they'd tell me, “Mr. Trump, our biggest problem is heroin!”.
 
And I say, “heroin!?”. It doesn't make sense! You know, you look at the beautiful trees, and the woods, and the roadways, and... the lakes! I say, “heroin!?”. It just doesn't work! It's incongruous, right? It doesn't work! But it was heroin. And I said, “if I get in, we're gonna stop that problem”. And I said, “where does it come from?”.
 
They said, “it comes from the southern border. They come right in”.
 
Now, New Hampshire would rate it their number one problem, they have a tremendous problem. But many other communities, including you, but many the communities have this problem. We're gonna stop it cold, folks! We're gonna stop it cold…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And…the bottom line is this. Look: we have a big, big day. You're gonna look back on this evening and you're gonna say that was one of the great evenings of your life, cause we love the country. We love the country. This was one of…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘WE LOVE YOU!’. I love you too, thank you. I really do. I love the people. I love the people. You know [what] they say? That Donald Trump, my base is so…so…; they say, “Donald Trump can do almost anything…!”, in fact, one person today said “anything!”. And they interviewed a woman…I saw her last night on television, sitting in a hotel room, which was…not the most beautiful room I’ve ever been in, but it was very clean! And I only want clean! I don't care about the room…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I want clean.

But they were sitting there, and they said to a woman…a wonderful woman, probably…55 years old, and her friends were there. And they said, “what would it take…to get you to vote for somebody other than Donald Trump?”.
 
She said, “don't play that game. There's nothing he can do…that would get me…to vote against him!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And I wanted to go up, and I wanted to hug that television set! I wanna…I wish I could find out…who she is!? But we have…so many people like that! We're all like that! I mean, a big chunk of the country is like that, because we're tired of stupidity! We're tired of seeing what's happening to our great country!
 
So, here's the deal: you're gonna go home, and…you're gonna remember this. But, much more importantly, tomorrow you get everybody you can. And I promise you you're gonna be so…proud…of your country.  You gotta go out and vote. You're gonna be so proud of your president, but forget that. You're gonna be so…proud…of this country again. And you're gonna remember the evening, because we're gonna start winning again. We're gonna win on trade. We're gonna win with our military. We're gonna knock out the ISIS…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna win…we are gonna win with the military, I tell you. We're gonna knock out ISIS. We're gonna knock them out. We're gonna win for our…vets, because our vets have been treated…too badly! It's not gonna happen anymore.
 
We're gonna win at the border. We're gonna win with education. We're gonna win with our Second Amendment. So many people talk to me about the Second Amendment…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna win at every…single…element of what we're doing. And every single thing, we're gonna win, win, win. And you're gonna say, “that was the single…greatest…vote…that I have ever cast!”. And you're gonna look back, and you're gonna be proud of yourselves, and you're gonna be proud of your country again.
 
So, thank you very much everybody! This is a great, great honor…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Thank you! Get out and vote! I love you all! Thank you! Thank you very much! Thank you! Thank you!
