Thank you everybody…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Wow! Look at all those people pouring in!
We…we said, “we'll start now”. We're not gonna wait, right!? Let's go! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We'll start! Wow! Yeah, we have…thousands of people outside but we're coming in. They'll come in. By the time they get in, we'll be finished, but that's okay, right? Thank you everybody…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, I know a lot about Syracuse. You love Syracuse. I love Syracuse. We love New York. We love…the United States of America, right!? [You’d] Better believe it! And folks, we're gonna make our country strong. We're gonna make America great again. But you know what? We're gonna bring back jobs, cause we need jobs here…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We need jobs.
So, before we came up, I had one of my people just do a couple of numbers…–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE–…thank you…–THE CROWD BOOS. APPARENTLY, THERE IS A PROTESTER. Get him out! [It] Never ends! …–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘WE WANT TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Folks, were gonna take back our country! We're gonna take back our country, believe me. Believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDL.Y.
So, before I came up, I had one of my people…I said, “go to the books”, the real, straight books, “[and] tell me”, and I know all about Syracuse. I've been up here so many times! I have so many friends…! I do happen to love your basketball team. They did a good job, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. They did a good job. And you happen to have an excellent coach! I don't know if you agree, but I think…you have…you know, he's been doing that a long time, and he's kept it good. And you really do have a great thing.
And you know, hey, Jim Brown was great, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. But you know, Jim Brown, I've always heard was a better lacrosse player that even a football player. I don't know if anybody's heard that! But…great. Just a great, great history…THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much everybody. Thank you very much.
So, I did a little…research: “the number of manufacturing jobs…has been cut in half in Syracuse, in this area!”. [It has] Been cut in half…in a very short period of time, folks! We gotta do something about it. We're bringing our jobs back.
“Syracuse lost 40 percent of its manufacturing jobs since 2001”. That's when…China happened to…join…the Word…you know, the World Trade Organization. Forget it. Look, we're not gonna let China get away with it. We're not gonna get…we're not letting…Mexico get away with it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. Our companies are moving out of here. We're gonna stop it! [And] We're gonna stop it fast!
The labor force participation rate is 60 percent, which is a very terrible number. And as you know, infrastructure in the area…? It's a disaster! Right? …-MR. TRUMP THROWS AWAY THE PAPER HE’S READING FROM­. THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It’s a disaster!
So, you lost your manufacturing, you lost your jobs…other than that, you're doing great, right!? Right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. [MGF1] But we're gonna bring it back! We're gonna bring it back like never before. If I'm elected president, you're gonna have jobs coming to Syracuse, coming to New York, coming all over the country, like never, ever, ever before! Remember that! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Remember that! …­–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY AND TIMIDLY.
So…so many…thank you, folks. Thank you. Do we love our New York crowds!? Do we love this!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Man! It’s good to be back!
You know, we've been all over the country. We've been doing really well. We have millions of votes more than the second person…who, by the way…lyin Ted! Lyon Ted! …–THE CROWD CHEERS. He’s a lyin guy! He can lie with the best of them!
Well, you know a really good liar though doesn't get caught! He gets caught all the time. Remember what he did with Ben Carson, right? He said, “he has left the race!”, during the race! During the election! “He's left the race!”. He didn't leave the race! And he picked up votes. But, just remember this, folks. Ted Cruz…does not…like…you, and he does…not…like…New York. Now, you can say what you want but that's it…–THE CROWD BOOS TIMIDLY.
Now, he's also in third place. So, remember this: Kasich voted in favor of NAFTA! He's a believer in NAFTA. NAFTA…destroyed..New York State, New England…; so many different places! We've lost our jobs to Mexico! We've lost our jobs all over! We are gonna straighten it out! But the two people that are running against me…and they're not doing very well, that I can tell you; but they shouldn't do very well…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…all right? Remember that.
So, we're…we're having a good run. Don't believe the polls! Do not…! You know, I had one poll come out today…that's so high…! I don't…want you…to believe…the polls! Pretend we're losing!
You know, I always tell politicians, before I became a politician, but I'm not a politician. I'll never be a politician. But I always said…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…I've always told them, “pretend you're a little bit down”. Because here's the key: on Tuesday you have to go out, and you have to vote. You have to get your friends. Cause we have a movement going on! It's a movement…like they've never…seen…in this country! Even the pundits, and these are the most dishonest people there are on earth! Okay!? …–THE CROWD BOOS. The press! The press is…terrible! Terrible! Among the most dishonest people you will ever deal with anywhere in life! They don't tell the truth! Some of them do, but not too many. Believe me! But, just remember, we have a movement going on! And even the ones that don't like me, of which there are many, for a lot of reasons…; but even the ones that don't like Trump they say this is a phenomena like the country has never seen before, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And the only way we keep this phenomena going…;
You know, I go to Mobile, Alabama. We had 35,000 people. We had 21,000 the other night, in Albany! Albany’s got the same problems you do! We had tremendous crowds no matter where I go. Rochester! We were in Rochester. Yesterday I was in Hartford, Connecticut. I was in Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh…, good football town!
But we were in Pittsburgh, we had tremendous crowds. No matter where we go, it's a movement like they've never seen before! It's a movement that maybe isn't gonna ever happen again! And the only way you stop the movement is…if we don't do a good job on Tuesday, that's what it is! We have to keep it going.
You know, one of the…uh……–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and you know what? Let…let me just tell you, very simply. I'm self-funding. I'm putting up my own money, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Is…is that smart? I don't know. You know, I always say I never get enough credit for that! I never get enough credit, because…when somebody looks at me, it…that…nobody thinks, “oh wow, he's…putting up his own money”.
Let me tell you what it means: these guys, these politicians, are all bought and paid for. Remember it…–THE CROWD BOOS. Remember it. Look, I used to be the ultimate establishment person, nine months ago. I was like…the…the perfect person! I gave massive campaign contributions to everybody. I mean, I was like…but I saw the system! And the system is not working. And the system is all rigged as far as the delegate stuff is going.
Now, look. I guess I'm complaining, cause it's not fair to the people. The people have to be…but, when you look at what happened in Wyoming, and what's happening there…; when you look at what's happening…in Colorado, where the people…–THE CROWD BOOS–…where the people never got a chance to vote…! …And they're going nuts out there! …they're angry! The bosses took away their vote, and I wasn't gonna send big teams of people three, [or] four months ago and have them out there. Again, I'm self-funding. You know what? You will appreciate, cause you're business, a lot of business people here. And we're gonna cut regulations, by the way! And we're lowering your taxes big league! Big league…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But what a lot of you will appreciate…and I think you'll appreciate this: I've spent less money…than just about anybody else and I'm, by far, in number one position. Isn't that good!? Isn't that good!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Isn’t that the one you want as your president!? You know, I've spent less.
I remember when we were in New Hampshire, I spent two million dollars in one, and Jeb…spent…I don't know, so much money! Many, many, many times times that. And came out not so good. And all the others did too! What I like is spending the least and having the best result! Cause that's what we wanna do with our country! Spend the least and have the best result! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, the system is rigged. It's a bad system. It's a dirty system. And…we're gonna do something about it, and maybe that'll take place the next time around, meaning in four years. But the system…is a bad, bad system! And, they gotta do something about it. The Republican National Committee, they’d better get…going. Because I'll tell you what, you're gonna have a rough July…at that convention. You’d better get going, and you’d better straighten out the system. Because the people…want…their vote! The people want to vote! And they wanna be represented properly! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
It's totally corrupt politics! And it's happening, in all fairness…the last person that's a fan of Bernie…you know? …–THE CROWD BOOS. I'm no fan of Bernie, believe me.
You know, I went to see the…the pope! Five minutes! Then he came out, [and] he said, “we talked about the environment. We talked about global warming. We talked about all these different things”.
And I said, “wait a minute. He’ll always…he was only there five minutes!”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. So, so the Pope gave them five minutes. I wonder why the Pope gave him five, he shouldn't have given him that much time really! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. But say what you want about Bernie Sanders! He wins, he wins, he wins, he wins, he wins…! And then you watch the pundits and they say, “but he can't win”.
[Do] You know why? Because the system is corrupt! Because the system is broken! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And the Democrats have a different system! They have super-delegates, but our system is worse than theirs! In our system they're not even voting! The bosses are picking the delegates! And it's a very bad thing. Despite all of that, you know who's gonna win? We're gonna win. We're gonna win. Despite all of that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I'll tell you a little story. So, when I first started, everybody said, “oh, he's just doing it for fun! He'll just do it for a couple of weeks!”. [It] would have been a lot easier that way, I have to tell you. Who knew this was going to happen!? Who knew!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But all the geniuses…you know, all these pundits that think they're smart and they're not; but they’re saying, “no, no, he's just gonna be in it for a little while, and…he's gonna have some fun; and he likes it for his brand…”, believe me. My brand…! This is the worst thing I could do for my brand! Okay? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Because they tell the truth! Because I talk about strong borders. Because I talk about the wall! Because I talk…about crime has to stop! Okay? Crime has to stop! And bad trade deals have to stop. And taking your jobs out of Syracuse and all of these great places…it has to stop! And it will stop instantaneously when I'm running things. Believe me, it…it's so fast. And we'll explain it in a second. We'll explain it.
But just let…let…me just say this: we have a great country. We have unbelievable…people. But we have leaders that are either corrupt or incompetent, for the most part. And we have some good ones, like the press! There's a few good ones, not too many. But we have either or incompetent leaders. And we got it straightened out our country! And that's what I'm doing it for! I'm doing it for one reason: that's why I'm self-funding! I'm spending a lot of money!
You know, I say…I'm not putting up…–THE CROWD BOOS. APPARENTLY, THERE IS A PROTESTER–…no, that's okay. Don't worry about it. You know…–MR. TRUMP GIGGLES–…you know what happens? Okay! Hold it! Hold it! Trump folks, don't worry about it. [DO] You know what happens!? My people always make all the noise, because they say,” there's one of them!”, and they start screaming…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. No, he's got a very weak voice. Don't worry about it I'd send and send them home to mommy go ahead of him get him out get him out get him…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
All right. Send him…send him to mommy! Go ahead, send him home…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Get him out. Get him out! Get him out! All right, gete him out of here! Hey, did you notice!? They're always right in front of the press, right!? They're always right in front…look where they are! Right smack in front of the press. The good news is the cameras follow and they see the kind…look at the kind of a crowd…early, early on a Saturday, in Syracuse! Look at the crowd…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Hey, does anybody have more fun than at a Trump rally!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And…and I'll tell you something: the safest…place…on earth…is at a Trump rally, and you know that. It's true! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. They like to act like a big deal, you know. Like this guy, he raises his hand; and they're gonna say, “massive protests at Trump rally!”, because they lie! They’re like lyin Ted! They lie! …–MR. TRUMP REFERS TO THE PRESS. All right!
It is…it is a little funny though. Oh, here's another one. Here's another one. You know, the biggest problem though are my people, seriously! Because my people get all excited, “here they are! Here they are!”. You can't even hear the person! But that's okay. I love my people. If my people wanna…if you feel good doing that, go ahead do it! Go ahead. Get him out! Get him out!
My people are the greatest. I have to let them do it. I always say, “don't pay any attention to them, we’ll speak over them”. But my people always like to point and go crazy, but that's okay. All right, get them out! Get out of here, please! Get out! Go! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
It's all right. Do we have a great time!? Great! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It’s so…it’s so funny.
You know, when I first started, I was tough! I would say, “get that guy out of here! Get him out!”. And the press was killing me. So, then I…became very soft. I said, “would you please remove him?”. And they said, “something happened to Trump! He's not tough anymore!”.[MGF2] 
All right, get him out! Get him out now! Get him out! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, the problem is it's so densely packed that's hard for the police to get over here! All right, you can't hear him. Don't worry, he's got a very weak voice. My people have the strong voice! You know why we're safe!? You know why these are safe places? And it's true. Every time…because the people in these rooms that I see, at these stadiums…we had 25,000 people in Tampa, Orlando…; the people love each other! And they protect each other. And that's the way the country has to be…for everybody! For everybody! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And we're gonna bring our country back together! Everybody, not just here! We're gonna bring everybody! African-american! White…! Every…person! Old, young, men, women! We're gonna bring people together! We're gonna bring…people…together!
Is he gone? Gone? Folks, seriously…–THE CROWD YELLS ‘BUILD THAT WALL!’–…I’m…I'm totally serious. Look: we have a country that's got…tremendous problems. We have 19 trillion in debt, soon going to…think of it! Trillion! Nobody even knows what a trillion dollars is! [It’s] Going to 21 trillion because of the horrible budget deal that was just made three months ago.
So, here's the story: we are gonna unify our country. You know, people don't think of me, necessarily, when they think of unification? I'm a unifier. I'm somebody that gets along with people. All people! We're gonna get along great! The workers, we're gonna get along…so…great! We're gonna have everybody, in this country, pulled together. We have to. We're a country! We're a country! We're gonna have strong borders. We're gonna let people in, but they're gonna come in legally! Remember that: legally! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…and remember what I said! Remember what I said! All people! We have a great representative group here. All people! Men, women, young, old, African-american, white…! Everybody. Hispanic! Hispanic! We love Hispanic! Hispanics are gonna…; you have to see the polls! I won in Nevada! They take a poll of the Hispanics, leaving! “Trump wins the poll!”. Everyone's surprised. I said, “I'm not surprised”. Because…I produce…jobs! What we need are jobs! And that's what we need! So, I'm not surprised…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But folks, we have…and you're gonna hear this from me more and more. We have to bring our country together. We're a divided nation. And we're not gonna be a divided nation for long. And we have to bring everybody up economically, and we have to stop the dividing. And we have a president who's a divider, whether you like it or don't . And we have a president…when you look at African-american youth, 59 percent, right now, unemployment. African-american youth.
You look at so many other categories…the country's doing poorly. Our jobs are being taken. They're being shipped all over the world. They're going to Mexico. You saw what happened: Carrier! You saw what happened: Nabisco! You saw what happened: Ford! I mean, one after another! Thousands and thousands of companies are leaving! Corporate inversion. It's a disaster! They're leaving because taxes are too high, and because we allow them to leave! And then they go in…as an example, Carrier.
It goes to Mexico. I'm not buying Carrier. I buy…lots of air conditioners. Carrier’s a good product. I don't buy it anymore. I won't buy it anymore. Let me just say, we should do that! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, if a company's not loyal to us…!? In Japan, it's very hard! And I tell you what! I give the Japanese people credit for this, and maybe their politicians. But [do] you know, in Japan, they don't wanna buy American products. They don't wanna buy. They wanna buy products that are made in Japan.
Now, you talk about a corporate imbalance. They send us millions of cars, [and] we send them practically nothing. What do we get out of it!? What do we get out of it!?
So, we're gonna change it, folks! We're gonna have Apple products, and other companies’ products made in the U.S.A, where we have jobs! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And it's gonna bring us together, because jobs is like the great equalizer. Jobs will bring us together, strong…real strong economies! I'm not talking about the economy…;
Right now, even the other side admits…that the jobs we have are called ‘bad jobs’! They're bad jobs! They're not good jobs! The…5 percent unemployment number is a total…phony…number! It was made up by politicians to make them look good. Our real number is in the 20s, and you know what, honestly? If it was really 5 percent, I wouldn't have all these people here; despite the wall, despite the border, despite the security, despite the fact [that] I’ll do the best job with the military…; we still wouldn't have all of these people! We still! So, we're gonna get smart! We're gonna get really smart.
Now, take an example Carrier, cause I wanna talk about jobs, it’s…when I'm here, in Syracuse, I wanna talk about jobs, for a specific reason! Because you're being drained. You're being drained! And I give credit that you stay here! You're being drained…; you love your community! It's beautiful! It's great! You love your people, you love your house! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. You don't wanna leave cause some politicians don't know what they're doing! Just hold on folks, because I'm telling you, I'm bringing them back, okay? It's gonna be brought back! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…and I'm gonna be very loyal to New York, New York State…I'm gonna be loyal because this is my place. This is my place…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Remember that. Remember that.
You know, you have these guys like Ted Cruz, where…he talked about New York values? …–THE CROWD boos. he talked about New York values…with hatred in his heart! When he, during that debate, he looked at me and he thought he was gonna make some points. I don't even think [that] he's a very good debater, to be perfectly honest. But…he…talked about New York values, and you could see, there was a lot of hatred toward New York, the way he said it.
Now, he comes he says, “well, I meant liberals”. You know, it…give me a break! This guy…is so bad for New York! Look at what happened with…Sandy! Look at what happened with the aid, for certain things…! Look at what happened with the votes that he gave to New York…! Guess what! He didn't give him to New York, he was against New York. And remember, Kasich, NAFTA, disaster! It took your jobs, and he voted for it, and was in favor of it! And they both want TPP, that's Trans-Pacific Partnership! It's gonna make NAFTA look like a baby! …–THE CROWD BOOS. It's gonna make NAFTA, Trans-Pacific Partnership. 6,000 pages! Every country in that deal has read every…single…word! And they've negotiated every…single…sentence! And our people, I bet you we have nobody, practically, that even looked at the document. We just signed these stupid deals, and we get ripped off, and wiped out! TPP is going to take the jobs that you have remaining in Syracuse, and New York State. It’s gonna take them away. We have to stop it! It's another Obama deal.
Obama is the worst negotiator in the world, except when it comes…to negotiating with the Republicans, [where] he always gets what he wants, right!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, here's the story we're gonna make things…great. We're gonna go to companies that wanna leave, and we're gonna say, “you wanna leave”. Take Carrier. I use Carrier as an example! They left a wonderful location…in Indiana, they left a wonderful location. 1,400 people…it looked like they had some wise guy, mid-level manager…you all saw the clip on television. He’s…gets up, he goes, “we're moving to Mexico. Thank you”. It's like…everybody fired. They've been there for 25, 30 years…35 years! “We're moving to Mexico”, he says.
So, here's my story. You know, my wife and my daughter, Ivanka…Melania, they all say…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and my kids! They say, “hey dad, you're really, really, really smart! Why don't you act a little more presidential? Be good”.
I said, “I can't act presidential until I finish the victory!”, right? We gotta…we gotta win! They want me to be nice!
[Do you] Remember Jeb Bush, when he said, “I don't like Donald Trump's tone” …–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
Well, here's the problem…here's the problem: they're chopping off…heads in the Middle East! They're drowning people in the Middle East. If you're a Christian in the Middle East, you don't even have a chance! And if you're a Christian in the Middle East, you can't even come to this country! If you're Muslim, it's easy! If you're Christian, it's impossible…to come into this country, okay!? That's…no…good! …–THE CROWD BOOS.
So, they’re…here’s the story. They're chopping off heads, they're drowning people…50 at a time in these massive, heavy, steel cages! Boom! Drop it in. Pull it up a half an hour later.
And I have Hillary, and I have Jeb, before he…lost, before he lost…but I have Hillary saying, “I don’t like the tone of Donald Trump!”. Folks, we need a tough tone. Believe me. We need a tough tone. Believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY.[MGF3] 
And we have to be unpredictable. You know, we're so predictable. Militarily, trade deals…we're like the stupid people. We're represented by people that…well, in many cases incompetent, and in many cases they're very smart! Because they get money from all of these donors, and these donors want deals to be made.
I have a friend who said, very strongly, he’s [a] very smart guy. He said, “Donald, I don't understand. How did these senators, and this one particular senator, how did he approve the deal!? Is he stupid!?”.
I said, “no, no. He's smart. He's approved it because his lobbyist told him he has to! Because the company gave him millions of dollars, put millions of dollars into these phony PACs”, which are total phony deals, by the way.
You know, if I have ever opened a PAC, I would have had the…I think Jeb had the biggest PAC: 148 million dollars. I could have…I could have done that times 10! In fact, I must tell you this. I don't know if I've ever said it to this extent. I sort of feel stupid not taking all this money! [MGF4] I have these guys:  “Donald, I'd like to give you ten million dollars towards your campaign”.
I said, “no, I don't want it”.
“Donald, I'd like to give you five million dollars towards your campaign”.
“No, I don't want it”.
And you know, this is like counter to my life! My whole life I've been taking money! I make money, I make money…! I took…a million dollar loan. In a relatively short period of time, I built a company that's worth more than ten…billion…dollars, okay? With a million dollar loan! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. That's how I started. And I built a company with some of the greatest assets in the world. Very little debt…I filed all the papers!
You know nobody knew. The press was devastated. They [MGF5] went up and they look, [and] they said, “wow, this is a great company!”. They couldn't believe…it was like a Feeding Frenzy. In fact, a friend of mine said, “now I know you're really rich, cause you would have never run”. Can you imagine if I filed bad papers? If I filed papers…where it wasn't a great company!?
I built a great company: great assets, some of the greatest, most iconic assets in the world. Turnberry, in Scotland; Doral in Miami; hundreds and hundreds of acres in the middle of Miami. Buildings all over the place. In addition, we had great success in television. We had great success in the book world! The Art of the Deal, one of the most successful books ever done…in business…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…maybe the most successful.
See, I used to say, “the most…”, there it is, right there! There's another one. The most successful business book ever written, but I don't do that now, because they'll go back and examine. “Well, let's see. 20 years ago, somebody wrote a book”. Let me just tell you. So I say ‘one of the most successful’, but I think it might be the most successful.
So, I've had great success! And, when I tell you…these things…I'm not saying it in a bragging way. I'm saying, “that's the kind of thinking we need in this country, at least until we straighten it out” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We need that kind of thinking.
But so often I'm asked…like, “what would you do!? What would you do!?”…about ISIS. And, “when would you attack them!? And where would you attack them!? And how would you do it!?”.
And I say, “I don't wanna answer!”. You know, I wanna be like…why do we always have to tell the enemy what our plans are!? Why!? Why!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
When Obama…a number of months ago said he's sending 50 of our finest, finest, finest…young soldiers over to Iraq, over to Syria…? And he goes and makes an announcement! And I said, “why is he doing that? Why is he doing that?”. They have a target. Right now, a target on their back. Everybody's looking for them. If he doesn't announce it, they can do their job…special people. But now everybody over this looking for them. If he didn't if…he didn't talk…! You know, it's these politicians, they have to talk. All talk, no action! We want results. We don't want talk! Is that right!? We want results…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And I've been saying…for years, cause I have a lot of fans here, they've been following me, and we just have a great relation. By the way, the…most…loyal…supporters…anywhere, probably, in the world in this country!
A woman was on television…I gotta tell you. I've said this a couple of times over the last few days, but I love this woman. I will search the world for her! She was on television. She's probably 55, or 60 years old. She had 10 women behind her, that were Trump fans. You know, they had buttons all over. Buttons on the head, buttons in the hair…; and, this…wise guy walks up to them, one of these characters right back here…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE CAMERAS–…walks up…look at all those live television shots! Every time I gotta be live! …–THE CROWD BOOS. I'd like not to be live, so we can really open up!
But, so he's on television. And he said, “what does it take for you to drop Mr. Trump and go with someone else?”.
She said, “don't talk anymore. Don't talk. There is…absolutely…nothing…that man can do, that we will drop!”, and the women behind started screaming…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And I told people! I said, and you know what I wanted to do? I wanted to get up and hug and kiss that television set! But we have the most loyal…and we have the smartest people too! We have the smartest people…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know there was a time when they say, “oh, these are the least educated!”. Let me tell you, we have the smartest…people! And the polls in New York are saying  [that] I have the top educated, and I have people without a lot of education. I'm winning with men! I'm winning with women! We're winning with every…single…category!
Now, you gotta get out and produce on Tuesday! But, we're winning with every…single…category! Every single. So, here. I gotta…I have to go back! Because, you know, we're gonna talk for a second about the border, but we're gonna talk about Carrier first.
So, I'm gonna call Carrier, and I'm gonna say, “congratulations on your new plant. I'll bet it's going to be lovely”. And I have to do this!
This is why my kids say, “don't call! Don't do it yourself!”.
I said, “I have to! This is too easy! Okay?”. Now, I have the greatest business people in the world [that have] endorsed me. Carl Icahn…great business people…endorsed me. These are people that will represent us with trade deals! Not political hacks that get taken to the cleaner…every…; I have guys…that can't sleep at night! They turn and toss, and sweat! They can't sleep, because all they can think of…they're consumed with doing this deal! They wanna…the best in the world!
And I know the best. I know guys that are overrated. I know people you never heard of that are better than all of them…! But these are people that don't sleep! They toss and turn, and sweat! All they can think about…; and they'll be thinking about the deal with China, the deal with Japan, the deal with Mexico…! They don't want money! They don't even wanna do it beyond the deal! They will make the greatest deals. It'll bring our wealth back, and it'll bring our jobs back.
And with Carrier…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and with Carrier…but I have to do it myself. cause this is too easy! Now, Carrier…[it] could be Ford, it could be Nabisco…; Nabisco is leaving Chicago! They're moving to Mexico, their big plant, moving to Mexico. No more Oreos, folks! I'm not eating Oreos anymore…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY.
So, listen. So, with Carrier, I [would] called the president of Carrier: “this is President Trump calling…!”. Can you believe [this]? I'm talking to an air-conditioning guy! Can you believe this!? But I have to do it myself! My daughter would go crazy. She’d say, “dad, that's not presidential!”.
I'd say, “who cares!?” …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It's too easy! They said that in the last debate. They said, “dad, dad! You’re winning every debate…”; every debate they say I won! You saw that, the polls. Drudge, who's an incredible guy by the way, Drudge! He's incredible! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Matt Drudge! But Drudge has a poll. Time magazine does a poll. Slate! They have like seven or eight polls.
Every single debate, I've won! Every…single…debate! I didn't even know if I could debate. I never did this stuff before! That's what the politicians do. But every single debate.
What happens…is I call Carrier. I’d say, “look, here's the story. You are going to pay…; first of all, enjoy your plant, [and] enjoy your life. But you just left 1,400 great people in Indiana, and now you're moving to Mexico. And you think you're gonna make air-conditioning units, and sell them to the United States, and there's not gonna be tax. Well, there you're wrong! You're gonna pay a 35 percent tax on every single unit you sell to the United States! Every…single…unit!” …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
These companies that are leaving us have to know…that when you leave us, and you fire all our people, from Syracuse; …and Albany; ...and Rochester; and all of the places that I'm going to. And Bethpage, which was an unbelievable rally; but when you…fire…! I went to Suffolk, who I…which I know all my life! I love Suffolk! I mean, I see all these empty factory buildings, it's ridiculous!
You have to know, [that] when you move to Mexico, or wherever you’re going, but when you move to Mexico, that…if you move there's gonna be a penalty. It's gonna be…we're going to tax your product when you come back in! And, you know what, folks? We may have lost those jobs, but we're gonna reduce the hell out of your taxes, because we're gonna make a fortune when they sell their product to us, okay!? …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But…but, I’ll talk. And the politicians have never figured it out! You know, it's called corporate inversion! They don't even know what that word is! It's called corporate inversion. They never figured. They're working on a plan, they wanna keep companies. They've been working on this plan for five years! They don't have a plan! Here's the plan, folks. I'm a conservative. I'm a free trader. But when you free trade, you have to have smart people representing you!
We have very, very dumb people! And we’ve have people that are all taken care of by the money people, and the special interests. And I see it! Because by the way, I have had 94 million dollars in negative ads! And you know, it's by people that I never even met! Who the hell is the Ricketts family from Chicago!? They put up millions! They own the Chicago Cubs. I have a great building in Chicago! I think the Chicago…I think the Chicago Cubs are gonna do terribly this year, okay? [If] You wanna know the truth! I don't even know who these people are!
But you know what? A guy named ‘Singer’! Who the hell ever heard of the…!? I'll tell you…I'll tell you a little secret. I saw [it]. I was surprised, because I thought I was friends. Koch brothers. I thought I was their friend, but somebody said they're linked to a certain PAC. The reason, they want to not have me get elected is that I know the game better than any of them know it. I know where the…the skeletons are, folks…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I know…I know all about the games! I know them better than they know. And they don't want it. Plus, they don't like the fact…one of them said, “we hate the fact that Donald doesn’t...”. I know most of these men! “We hate the fact…that Donald doesn't want any money!”. Because if I don't want any money, they don't have any control! Does that make sense? They have no control! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. They have no control
So, I’d tell Carrier it's a 35 percent tax on every single unit you sell in. And now we're gonna have a real border! We're not gonna have a Swiss cheese border, right!? …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And by the way, the Border Patrol, 16,500 Border Patrol agents…endorsed me last week! [It’s the] first time they've ever…endorsed…a presidential candidate! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And sheriff Joe Arpaio, who's a great guy from Arizona…! There's nobody tougher than Sheriff Joe on the border…–THE CROWD CHEERS. Sheriff Joe endorsed me! So, we know who's gonna be the…the border. We're gonna have a real border.
And here's what…Carrier is gonna say to me. They’re gonna say, “Mr. President, you can't do this, you can't…;”.
I’ll say, “oh, yes I can”.
And then, about 24 hours I will be inundated with calls from people, special interest, lobbyists…but, I don't care about these people! I don't care. They didn't give me anything. I don't want their money…they didn't give me anything. So, I'll be inundated. I won't take the call. I won't even bother talking to him. Why should I talk to him? It's a waste of a call. And I will get a call, I guarantee you, within 24 hours from the head of Carrier saying, “Mr. president, we've decided…to stay…in the United States!”. That's what's gonna happen! 100 percent! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And by the way, that's a hundred percent. That's not like 89.3. That's 100, 100 percent!
So, here's what we have to do. We're gonna build…a tremendous border: We're gonna have a great border. We're gonna have people come in. We want people to come into our country. They have to come in. But they're gonna go through a process, and they're gonna come in legally. But we're gonna build…a wall. And it's gonna be…an incredible wall…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It's gonna be a real wall. It's gonna keep drugs out. And it's gonna keep…illegal immigrants out! Because we can't do it! We can't afford it. We're a debtor nation, folks! We can't afford it.
We are not letting people from Syria, with no documentation, with no paperwork, with no anything…com in to our country…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And if they do come in, we're gonna have to sadly send them back. We cannot take them in our country…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You saw what two people did…where the woman radicalized the guy. And they killed 14 co-workers that they had good relationships with, and everybody said “what happened!?”; they were given a baby shower a little time before…; you saw what happened. We can't do it, folks! We don't know where these people come from. Zero documentation, zero paperwork!
As far as the border itself, we're going to stop. It's killing our jobs. It’s…you look at Kate, in San Francisco, what happened. You look at Jameel, in California, what happened. Shot three times in the face, by a person that should have never been allowed in this country. And frankly, I have great relationships with Mexico. I have great relationships with the Hispanics, because I employ…thousands and thousands of people. They're great! But their government is too smart for our government. They could stop this problem, even before the wall is built, but they don't want to!
The drugs are pouring in…I won New Hampshire! And New Hampshire people…I'd go to meetings and I'd say, “what's your biggest problem!?”.
They said, “heroin”.
I said, “you gotta be kidding. Look how beautiful this place is!”. You know, you see the beautiful trees,, and roadways, and lakes…heroin! How does heroin work with New Hampshire!? New Hampshire has a tremendous heroin problem, and so do you, by the way. A tremendous heroin…; it comes from the southern border. They drive it right through like it doesn't even exist. We get the drugs, [and] they get the cash! No more, folks! It's gonna end, okay? It's gotta end. No more! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
They are poisoning our youth! Our youth doesn't have a chance! They're poisoning our youth! Our youth can buy this stuff for less money than it costs to buy candy. Our youth is being destroyed! They're being poisoned! And even beyond our youth! But they're being poisoned and we're gonna stop it.
So, here's the story: we're going to build a great wall! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Who is gonna pay for the wall!? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘MEXICO’. Who!? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘MEXICO!’ LOUDER. By the way, 100 percent!
These politicians…these politicians come up to me, and they say, “you can't build a wall!”. This was like…a year ago. You can't build a wall!
I said, “of course you can”.
Now they don't say that anymore. Now they say, “you can't get Mexico to pay!”. Politicians will never be able to do it. For me, it's easy! It's so easy! Because, you know why? We have a trade deficit with Mexico of 58 billion dollars a year. The wall’s gonna cost ten billion dollars to build, and it's gonna be so beautiful cause someday maybe they'll name it after Trump, right? It’ll be the Trump wall. You know…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I don't want that. I don't want that! But it's gonna be a real wall! It's gonna be an effective wall! And walls work. All you have to do is ask Israel. Walls…work!
And we are going to stop…illegal immigration, and we are going to stop drugs…from destroying, and poisoning our youth! Believe me! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, here's the story. [Let’s] Sort of wrap it up. Here's the story. This is so…I love being with you, people! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. The same accent! I have the same accent! I have…unfortunately, for all of us, right? I have that same beautiful little twang as you do! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY.
You know, Hillary can talk…although I…I will say, I do love Arkansas. I won Arkansas. I won Alabama. I won the south! I won the south! I won Florida.
You know, one story I have to tell you about…this just to show you how crooked politics is, but sometimes so Florida was going to be won easily by Jeb Bush, ex-Governor, he was gonna win it…; or Rubio! Then they see me come into the race, so they…fixed it! So what they did is they…rejiggered it. So, [the] winner-take-all! This means that Trump won't win Florida, because you have the governor coming in, and you have the senator..! So, it was rigged, like everything else in this…party. It was rigged! It was rigged so that I couldn't win.
So, now winner-take-all 99 delegates…just about the top, outside of California, where I think we're gonna do great by the way, 99 delegates…winner-take-all. They changed it so that I wouldn't get any delegates!
Then they do a poll. Now it's changed. Then they do a poll: Trump, 48! Bush, 12! Rubio, 14! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. And they said, “oh, my god! What did we do!? We gotta change it back! And I end up winning the state of Florida in a landslide.
So…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS­–…so you never know how it turns out.
Okay. So, [are you] ready? We are gonna rebuild our military so it's bigger, better, stronger than it ever…was…before! Ever! And by the way, I love this lady…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE WOMAN WHO MADE THE QUESTION BEFORE. I love this lady. I love this lady. Yeah, take your time, fellas. Take your time. Take your time…–IN THE MEANTIME, THE CROWD YELLS–…I love you, man. This is a great guy! He was probably waiting here five hours. We love you! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Hey, give him a…–MR. TRUMP APPLAUDS. THEN HE GOES DOWN THE DIAS TO GREET THE PERSON.
I love that guy. You know, he's probably been waiting here for like five hours. So, tough stuff. But boy, we have…; nobody…I'm telling you! Nobody has the loyalty that we have. These people? They're amazing! You, people, are amazing. And we're gonna really take it.
So, here's what we're gonna do…–THE CROWD CHEERS–…thank you. Here's what we're gonna do: you gotta go out. You're gonna remember this…afternoon. You gotta go out. You gotta vote. And I promise you one thing: I'm gonna do a great job for you, folks. I don't want your money, I don't want anything. I want your vote.
Bring everybody you know to vote. Do whatever you can, just go out and vote. And you leave the rest to me, cause I'm working for you. I'm your messenger. You know, when they talk…about when they talk about this…this incredible…group of people…and they actually say, it's a phenomena, they've never seen it before! All…every time! Look at this! I mean, on a Saturday morning! Look at all these people, filling up a convention center.
So, here's what's gonna happen: we don't win anymore. We don't win anymore! We don't win with our military. We can't beat ISIS. By the way, we're gonna knock the hell out of them…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Right? We’re gonna knock the hell out of them.
We don't win for our great vets! We're gonna win for our vets. We're gonna take care of our vets…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. These are our great people.
We don't win on trade. We never win on trade. We're losing billions, and billions, and billions of dollars a year. More money than every…anybody's ever heard of! We're gonna win on trade…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY.
We're gonna win with education! We're gonna get rid of Obamacare. We're gonna get rid of Obamacare, remember…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Just remember I said it. It's gonna fall of its own weight anyway by 17, but we're gonna get rid of it. We're gonna repeal it and replace it with something so much better for so…much…less…money!
We're gonna get rid of Common Core, and we're bringing our education local! We're gonna go local! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We…are going…to win…at the border. We are going to have the strongest borders, and great people are coming in. They're coming in through a legal process! But we're gonna finally have borders, so we have our country back again! …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And here's what you're gonna do: you're gonna remember this…day! And you're gonna remember, more importantly, Tuesday. And you're gonna say to your family, to your friends, to your husbands, to your wives…to whoever. You're gonna say, “that was the single greatest vote I've ever cast! That never in my life…”…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–… “have I been so happy to cast a vote”.
And you're gonna remember that vote in two years, and four years, and 20 years and 30 years from now. And you're gonna say again, and again, “that was the greatest vote I've ever cast”. Because you know what's gonna happen, folks? We're gonna start winning again! We're gonna win with trade. We're gonna win with jobs! We're gonna win with the economy! We're gonna win with our military! We're gonna win for our vets! We're gonna win with education! We're gonna win with…healthcare! We're gonna win so much…[that] you're gonna say, “please, please…!”; I love doing this. I do love it. You're gonna say, “Mr. president, please! We can't stand it! We're winning too much. We can't stand it! Please…”…­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…“let's not…win…all the time!”.
And I'm gonna say, “I'm sorry! We're gonna win more, and more, and more…! And we're gonna make…America…great…again!” …­­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I love you! I love you, Syracus! We're gonna win! Thank you! I love you! Thank you, everybody!
