MR. TRUMP’s FRACTION:Full
Nº OF WORDS:6510
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I say, “now, how are you gonna pivot out of the statements?”.
 
They said, “don't worry about it”. In other words, they're politicians! They can do it.
 
But, I just wanna thank everybody. This is a far bigger win than we…even expected, all five. And that's something…that's really…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…that’s really amazing.
 
And…no only is it all five, it's all five whether it's 60, or just about 60…and, even I see one up there at 66, and 67. And, you have to remember, and I say this all the time to the pundits. I love the pundits, but I say it all the time, “there are three people!”. When you crack 60, and…ug…as we did last week with our great city, and our great state of New York, when you crack 60 with three people, that's very hard to do. In fact, I think Chris can tell you, if you crack 60 with two people, that's called…that's called a massive landslide. But we have three.
 
And…you know, uh…some strange things have happened. Last night it was very strange, when I watched this…group get together. That was a strange moment. I got a call at 11 o'clock, and we talked. And I said, “I think that's a good thing”, because it shows weakness, it shows ineffectiveness, it shows failing campaign. Hey, it's called collusion! In business they put you in jail for collusion. In politics you're allowed to get away with it.
But it really is. It's a…I thought it was a very weak signal. And, the Republican party needs something much different than that. We’ll be going to…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘THAT’S RIGHT’–…thank you. We’ll be going…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we’ll be going to Indiana.
 
I'll be leaving tomorrow…afternoon, for…uh…just a long stay, and it's a great state. I have many, many friends there, and…I have a coach, Bobby Knight! The great Bobby Knight! And…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we're gonna be spending a lot of time with Bobby, and…Bobby's an amazing guy. He's tough, he's sharp, he's smart, and he wins! He knows how to win. And the people of Indiana love him, and Bobby's endorsed me, and…we're gonna spend tomorrow night, and I…think the next day with Bobby. So, it's gonna be a lot of excitement and fun. And that's called ‘the gold standard’. For Indiana, I would say Bobby Knight has to be the gold standard, and…we have so many other people that have endorsed us there, so that'll be great. So, we'll be spending…we’ll start in the afternoon, and we're gonna be spending…numerous days in Indiana, and it's gonna be something really, really special-
 
So, uh…I wanna thank the media. The media's really covered me very fair for the last…uh…two hours…–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND CHEERS VIVIDLY. No, they've been…they've been really very fair over the last few weeks, and…uh…you know, it's been amazing what's been happening.[MGF1]  The crowds we've had, a record-setting crowds. Bigger than Bernie, but Bernie’s second, I have to say. In fact, I suggested today…you probably saw, that the Democrats have treated Bernie very badly, and frankly, I think he should run as an independent, okay? And…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…I actually do. I actually do. I think they've treated him very badly.[MGF2] 
 
And, you know, the system is a…bad system, and whether it’s their system or our system, you look at what goes on…; but, you know, the best way to beat the system is have evenings like this, where you get record-setting votes, where you get record-setting delegates…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and, you know…;
 
I use the analogy of the boxer! You know, when…the boxer knocks out the other boxer, you don't have to worry…wait around for a decision. So, that's what it is; and that's what happened tonight; that's what happened last week, in New York; and that's really what's been happening throughout. We have millions more votes, millions more…than…Cruz. We have millions more votes than Kasich. I mean, Kasich now, I guess it was one in 41, so now he's one in 46! Why is he here?
 
I can tell you that if you look, Dr. Ben Carson did much better. He could have hung around and done…very well. If you look, Chris Christie did much better! If you look, Marco Rubio did much better…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. In fact, Marco Rubio right now has more delegates than…you know, Kasich. I mean, he's got more delegates! But so many others! I mean, they've done…actually, done…all they had to do is hang around, but they thought it was inappropriate. And a lot of people don't like seeing it. It's like a spoiled person, that just says, “I'm just saying…forever…for whatever reason.
 
So, Kasich…and by the way, as soon as Kasich gets hit with the first negative ad…he's had none, bing! …that's the end of that. You know, it's the only thing he can say. And today, we came up even against Hillary, but we will beat Hillary so easily…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
And, you know, remember this. Remember, I was not gonna run according to everybody, and I ran. I was not gonna sign Form-A, which basically you sign your life away, and I signed Form-A. And then everybody starts saying, “wow!”.
 
And then we put in financials. The financials were phenomenal, far better…a little bit like this evening, far better than even people thought. Great financials. I built…a great company, with the help of my…my sons, and my daughters, and…uh…I mean, with the help of my family, frankly! I mean, it’s been great…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But we built a great, great company, and…that was…!
 
And then, everybody said again, “well, he's just gonna have a good time for a couple of weeks. He's enjoying it”. And very shortly, we went to…number one, over…a three, or four week period, and we've been there ever since. We've been number one ever since. And, again, millions of more votes. Hundreds of more delegates. And I think this one is maybe…the biggest of them all. I mean, New York last week had…almost 62 percent. It was incredible. Far better than what people thought. They said, “if you could break 50…”, again, with three people, it's very hard to break 50! We had almost 62 percent. [We] Picked up so many delegates…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
Last week we had…last week we had 95 delegates in New York State, New York…City, the whole thing added up to…95 we picked up almost every single one of them. It was an amazing victory. But this one's a diverse victory! I mean, you go Rhode Island; and you go Maryland; then you go Connecticut; and you go Pennsylvania; and you go…I mean, the whole thing…Delaware…! And…every one of them was conclusive and every state is so different! I mean, it's so different! I think one of the greats was when you look at almost 50 percent in Massachusetts, and almost 50 percent in the state of Alabama!
 
Now, that's pretty different, but we have…all across the board. And I think we're gonna do really well in Washington State. I think we're gonna do…amazingly well in Oregon, and…every place we're going to! I mean, we're gonna be going…fighting hard. New Mexico…we're gonna be fighting really hard. And I think that…Governor Kasich, and…Senator Cruz have really, really hurt themselves with a faulty deal that was defaulted on before they even…started!
 
Because Kasich said, “well, what do you mean? Aren't they gonna vote for me in Indiana!?”.
 
“Well, I said…I thought they just made that deal”.
 
So, what it is is politicians, all talk no action. They can't get it done, and they certainly can't straighten out our country, because…we're gonna bring back jobs. We're gonna take care of our military. We're gonna be doing so many things…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUS.
 
I mean, for me…especially over the last two weeks, because I traveled New York State. And I went to Syracuse, and Poughkeepsie, and Rome…! This Rome. Our Rome. Rome, New York, as opposed to…there's another Rome out there someplace. But we went to Rome, New York. And we went to…the island, Bethpage, and…and…just every place we went. Uh…manufacturing down 40, and 45 percent, and even more.
And then we go to Pennsylvanian, we see the same thing. You look at what's happening with steel, and you look at what's happening in so many other industries. And…I get…statisticians to give me numbers, and…before I leave, all the time: “give me the numbers”. And…every single place I go, is a disaster. Manufacturing down 40, 45, 55, 60 percent sometimes, in a relatively short period of time.
 
Our jobs are being sucked away from our country, and…we're not gonna let it happen anymore, folks. We're gonna make it very, very difficult to do that. And when…companies wanna leave this…country, our great country, and they wanna lay off all of these people that in many cases, helped build the country, there will be consequences for that company to pay. When they think they're gonna make their product and send it in, no taxes, through a very weak border, which by the way, I border will be very, very strong, and we will build the wall. Just remember I said it, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
But…when…when they think they're gonna send their product right through this week border, and they're gonna pay no tax, and have absolutely no consequence for what they did, it's not gonna happen that way. And you know what's gonna happen? When we do that, all of a sudden companies are gonna say, “I'm staying in Syracuse”, and, “I'm staying in Pennsylvania” and, “I'm staying in…Maryland”. And I wanna thank the people of Maryland, they've been so incredible.
 
We had some rallies, all over. But we had some rallies in Maryland and Pennsylvania that were absolutely unbelievable. Yesterday in Pennsylvania, we were in an arena, that was…like…Madison Square Garden. They turned away thousands and thousands of people. Unfortunately the press never reports that. They will show my face! They go like this…­–MR. TRUMP POINTS  AT HIS FACE.
 
I said, “does anybody ever wanna show this arena that's got…tens of thousands of people in it?”, but they don't do that. But that's okay, because I'll at least explain it to you. But, we're gonna have our country back. We're gonna make America great again! And I just wanna tell you for the five states, I am so honored! This was to me our biggest night, because it shows such diversity…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
So, thank you very much, and we will take some questions. Yes. CBS.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.09.55:
 
Yeah, it’s all been…well, I don’t…I don't know what the final number is, but the money remains for veterans, cause we’ve mostly distributed, and we’re looking for…some other…reall worthy places to distribute the final amounts. But, for the most part, yeah, for the most it has been distributed. We raised millions of dollars.
 
Yeah, go ahead. I consider myself the presumptive nominee, absolutely. I mean, if you look…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…I think everybody…; I mean, honestly, senator Cruz and governor Cruz…should really…get out of the race and…they are. They have no path to victory, and…at all. They have no path to victory, and…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…honestly, they should get out of the race. And we should heal the Republican party, bring the Republican party together, and I’m a unifier! I unify people! That’s how I did it in business! I mean, and I unify people.
 
We will…have people…that are backing this party, and backing my candidacy that you folks will not even…believe! We're gonna have such…univty! Now, I’m not saying ‘everybody’, because some people have gone too far over the edge, but…we will have people backing the party and backing the presidency. And we’re gonna win! And we’re gonna beat…Hillary Clinton. And it’s not going to be hard…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
Go ahead.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.11.32:
 
Thank you.
 
Well, let…let me give you an example. And it’s a good…a…very good question. And, of course, we’re looking at different things, and…I don’t wanna do that, and we’re leading by so much, and…I think we’re gonna hit the numbers pretty easily, and most people know that. [That’s going to happen] And…probably before…we…end the process. But what it is, is a lot of room between the two, the convention and then, and they may be a lot of delegates available. And we’re only gonna be a tiny percent. But I don’t think that will even happen.
 
But if you look at Pennsylvania, first of all, they haven’t been…–INAUDIBLE–who’s a tremendous…leader. And, one of the things with Pennsylvania, you know, we had a massive…victory! 60 percent, above 60 percent. Uh..Pennsylvania has been amazing! We get 17…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we get 17 delegates outright, and then you have 54 or so delegates that are…you know, up for…grabs. The one thing different with Pennsylvania, and I've been hearing about it…I've heard about it for years, actually, is that…the winner of Pennsylvania, there's a moral obligation, at least on the first…round, to…support the person that won.
 
Now, we didn't only win, we won big. And again, we have to get in mind, you have the three people. And, when you have three people, to get 60 percent, that's…almost unheard of. Honestly, if you had two people, and you got 60 percent, that's a really big victory.
 
So, here you have a case where…we have a great leader, [a] great Republican leader, and you have a moral obligation in Pennsylvania, that those people…will…and all I care about is the first round. You know, when you, people, write about…‘Cruz's going around giving people dinner; buying people everything; riding them around all over the place…; getting them into hotel rooms…;’, because he's looking for the second, and the third, and the fourth…; I'm not really too interested in that, because…we're gonna win on the first. I'm not looking to go second, third, fourth, fifth…maybe I'm making a mistake! I mean, the truth is…even if this did ever go there, can you imagine if Donald Trump…because in California we’re up to almost 50 percent. I think we hit 50 today. And, they’re at 18, and 16…; I mean, there's a massive difference. So, we're gonna have a big California. I think we're gonna do great in Indiana.
 
Indiana is the home of Carrier air-conditioning which is leaving for Mexico, that I've been talking about for the last…four months, long before I knew Indiana would be so important! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. And I'm saying that won't happen if I'm president. Carrier will not believe in
 Indiana if I'm present.
 
And…but I've been talking about this for a long period of time. So, when you think of it, and the…the really unfair thing that the…pundits never report, when I began the process with 17 people, very capable people, like Chris, governors, senators…Dr. Ben Carson…very smart, tough, highly accomplished people! 17, a record in the history of politics. 17 people!
 
So, I go and I start…winning. And I'll win…New Hampshire! And I'll get whatever it may be, 32 percent. And people would say, “why didn’t he get 50 percent?”.
 
I said, “you can't get 50 percent when you have 16 people!”.
 
Then I go…to…South Carolina. We have a massive victory. That was Cruz…stronghold, except I won it…in a landslide, and I want it because of the evangelicals, who backed me. The evangelicals have been unbelievable, and they backed me. So, I won…there. And, we had 12, or 13, or 14 people. We had many, many people! And I got a lot!
And then, we went to Nevada, we went to the south, we went…I mean, Alabama, with all of the people we had, we almost got 50 percent! Massachusetts, with all of the people we had, we almost got 50 percent.
 
The pundits…I was watching tonight! The pundits never talked about the fact that…these early states, especially, even now we have three! Three is…unfair! You know, Hilary has one! I am three. There's a big difference! There's a big difference between fighting one person, and fighting two person…people, in terms of percentages.
 
So, what I'm saying…is, when you talk about the 12-37 number, the first 70 percent of these things we had…from 16 people, and even 17 people…to 10; to 8; to 6; to 5; to 4…; and now…we're at three! So, it's really unfair when you…try and…I mean, I'm…always been very good math. Nobody ever discusses that. When I watch the people on television, whether it's CNN, FOX or any of them! And I watch. They never talked about the fact that…we have all these people, and that if you got a 32, or a 35, or 38…and you have seven people running, that's an unbelievable…that’s like 75!
 
So, we’re really honored by this night. And I’m really honored to have hit…over 60, and virtually every race…with three people in the race. Okay.
 
Well, go ahead Tom…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
I didn't wanna bore you with that long, long…thing…but, I'm telling you, it's never discussed on television.

Go ahead.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.16.23:
 
He's wasting his time, Tom…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Just, Tom…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. “At least I’m running…!”.
 
In fact I heard he had a news conference tonight, and I heard the news conference…was for the purpose that he's getting out of the race, that's what I thought! And instead he just had a news conference. More talk, you know; but…but, uh…no, I don't even think about it right now. I'm not doing that. I'm…we're gonna set up a…a…committee, at some point in the not too distant future. But I just don't wanna think about it right now. I wanna…I wanna finish it off…;
 
THE MEDIA INTERRUPTS.
MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.16.50:
 
Well, I think he's fantastic.I…look, I think Chris Christie is fantastic, so certainly…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…he would be somebody to look at.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.17.08:
 
 No, I am me. You know, it's interesting Sarah. Uh…I hear that. You know, “he’ll be presidential…! He’ll be not presidential…! He'll do this…!”. Uh…it's very easy to be presidential, much…by the way, much easier, but I'm not playing a part.
 
Look, I started off for 17. I'm down now, I'm…winning, it…it's over! It…it…as far as I'm concerned, it’s over. These two guys cannot win this. There’s no path. So, why would I change?
 
You know, if you have a football team and you’re winning, and then you get to the…uh…Super Bowl, you don't change your quarterback, right? So, I'm not changing.
 
THE MEDIA INTERVENES.
MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.17.38:
 
I think we're gonna do great in the general. Well, I may act…differently, but my thought process is the same. You know, when I speak to a group of 10 people in a conference room, I'm not gonna be speaking the same way I spoke in Pennsylvania yesterday, to 25,000 people! It's a very different thing! But I'll be saying very similar thing! Yes, go ahead.
 
THE MEDIA INTERVENES.
MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.18.03:
 
I'm doing a foreign policy speech. Yeah, which I look forward to!
 
THE MEDIA INTERVENES.
MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.18.14:
 
 
Well, it's an interesting question. I've had many, many people writing, tweeting…modern…way of writing; but writing, tweeting, calling…: “please, don’t change. Please don't change! Just stay the way you are!”.
 
So, I…uh…look, I'm not changing. You know, I went to the best schools. I…I'm like a very smart person! I'm gonna represent our country with dignity, and very well…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…but I don't wanna really change my personality. I think…you know, it got me here!
 
Somebody said,  “if you changed, and if you were that way, you would be…maybe, where you are
 right now!”. You know, we beat a lot of people! A lot of people are sitting back saying, “what happened, darling? Why are we sitting here? We're watching television”.
 
Don't forget, when I announced, there were many…favorites that were going to win! One of those people raised…over a hundred million dollars, in a PAC, and a lot of money, personally. Uh…others had…other big advantages, governors of major states, etcetera, etcetera. They were all gonna do great! They were all gonna do great! But one after another, after another, and here we stand, with big five victories over 60 percent!
 
David?

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.19.29:
 
Look. Sure. I mean, in Hillary's…I call her crooked Hillary! She's crooked! She'll be a horrible president. She knows nothing about job creation. Her husband's signed NAFTA, which destroyed this country economically, I will tell you. You look at New York State; you look all over New England; you look at Pennsylvania; NAFTA was a disaster, her husband signed it. And…it was a disaster for this country.
 
Hillary will be horrible! Absolutely horrible, on economic development. She will be terrible on job. She knows nothing about jobs, except for jobs for herself. And when it came to answering the phone…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…when it came to answering the phone, at three o'clock in the morning, she was, okay? She wasn't with Benghazi, and all of the other problems. You look at what she did with Syria! You look at what she's done in so many different ways. She will not be…a good president! She doesn't have the strength, she doesn't have the stamina. I know about dealing with China! I've made billions of dollars dealing with China. China can be dealt with, and you can get along with them! But, Hillary does not have the strength or the stamina to deal with China, or…other things. But bottom line is, one of the big problems our country has is…problems with trade, where you have China, Japan, Mexico…so many countries, just ripping us left and right. The politicians…cannot handle that problem. [There are] Two reasons:
 
Number one, they don't have the competence to do it. Number, two most of them are…paid off through campaign contributions, so that they don't touch…certain things…that the people want touched!
 
When people are making less money in real wages than they were 18 years ago, and then…some people say, “wow, he had a big crowd!”. That's one of the big reasons! I mean, you have people making less money today…as you know, cause you see every stat…less money today, David, than they made 18…years ago. And in some cases, they’re working two jobs! So, they're getting older, and they're working harder. [It] Shouldn't be that way.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.21.32:
 
 No, I don't worry about it. No. No, I don't worry. I'm not a hateful person. I'm a person that loves people. And make America great again! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I mean, that's just the theme. I mean, she's going with that because she thinks it's great. I'll do far more for women that Hillary Clinton will ever do, including…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…remember this, including…protecting our country! Because she will not be good with a military. She will not be good with protecting our country, and she's had her shot. And she also raised her hand when it came to Iraq, and she shouldn't have voted.
 
And if you remember, just take a look at the things that Bernie Sanders was saying about Hillary Clinton. She said she's not qualified…he said, “she is not qualified to be President”. But he said something else that was in…cause ‘qualified’, what's ‘qualified’? I mean, you gotta go out, you gotta run and you see what happens.
 
But he said some things about her that was so…incredible. Incredible! And so incredibly bad. There's a great level of hatred right there, but he's been telling the truth! And I really mean it! I think Bernie Sanders should run as an independent! I think he'd do great. Okay!

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.21.32:
 
I think the party you seeing me that way. I'm getting calls that, as I said, you wouldn't believe. I'm getting calls from people that I really can't even know how they can do it, because they've said such horrible things about me! Now they wanna join the team! Chris can tell you that. Ben Carson can tell you that. Other people can tell you that. I'm getting calls…and Corey [Lewandowski] can tell you. Paul [Manafort] can tell you…we…we have…we’re getting calls from people where I actually say, “how  could you do this!? How can you do this!? How can you do it!?”. And they have no problem. But the…the fact is…names that you wouldn't believe. Names that you interview and say, “oh, Trump, Trump, Trump…!”. And now they're calling to want…they wanna join the team.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.23.39:
Sure. I mean, tomorrow is gonna be…I think interesting. It's gonna be some of my views on…uh…foreign policy, and defense, and…lots of other things. So, we'll be discussing…and…and part of it is the economics. I mean, we…I was asked a question recently on…by Wolf Blitzer on CNN. And he talked about NATO! I gave a great answer. I gave an answer that, at first people didn't like, and then tey said, “you know what? Trump is right”. Experts said!
 
I said I said it's obsolete, and too many people are getting a free ride, because we're funding 72, 73 percent of NATO. You have 28 countries, and many of these countries are just taking advantage of the United States. And you have to pay up, because we don't have a country with 19 trillion in debt that can afford this anymore. You have to pay up. And part of what I'm saying is people are…I…we love…our countries, and we love our allies…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY–…but our allies can no longer be taken advantage of this country. This isn't 40 years ago, and it's not 20 years ago. This is now. And, we have to rebuild our infrastructure. We have to rebuild our country. We have to get rid of ISIS, so we have to get rid of them fast.
 
Our military is totally depleted. We have to build it up. It's gonna be the cheapest thing we can do. And a lot of great things are gonna happen. We're gonna make America great again.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.24.52:
 
No, no you're gonna…just…really hear different things, yeah. Very…all right. I'll never change one thing. [Do] You know what I will never change? Make America great again. I will never change it. That's one thing! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.25.13:
 
No, it's not gonna be the Trump doctrine. And you know, when I say…it won't be ‘the Trump doctrine’, because…in life, you have to be flexible. You have to have flexibility. You have to change! You know, you may say one thing and then the following year you wanna change it, because circumstances are different. And I've…followed people for years, and…I have friends that are the most successful people in the world, many of them are endorsing me. Carl Icahn…many of the great business people are endorsing me.
 
You have to have flexibility. You can't say, “this is my doctrine, I will not move!”. Because the world changes. Countries change. Leaders change. Lots of things happen, so you can't say that.
 
Okay. Yes, sir. Go ahead.

And…and…again, the ceiling was always so unfair, because I'm gonna just do it again, because I wanna do it because it's so important! But the ceiling…wait a minute! The ceiling…they kept saying, “he doesn't hit the 50 percent”. Well, that they don’t say now anymore, but…how do you hit 50 percent when you have 16 people in a race!? You can't do it!

No, no, you don't understand. I have many people running. I think I'm gonna win New York. No other Republican can say it. I think I'm gonna win…excuse me, I…conservative voters!? Did you see the polls, where they're coming out tonight? The most conservative people, in the Republican party…tonight, back Donald Trump! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. The most conservative, okay? The most! [You] Gotta see the polls.

Go ahead.

Yeah, debt is the single biggest question I’m getting, student debt. And we're gonna work on that. We're gonna make it…much different. The biggest problem the students have…they have the problem with debt, but they go to a good college, they borrow right up to the…right up to here…­–MR. TRUMP SHOWS HIS NECK–…and then choking on debt, and they graduate; they work hard; they get good marks; and then they can't get a job!
 
I'm gonna bring jobs back to this country like you've never seen! That's the biggest problem! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.27.37:
 
Well, we have a lot of contrasts. In terms of jobs, we have a lot of contrasts. In terms of how I would handle Wall Street. Look, Hillary Clinton is funded by Wall Street, folks! I mean, she's gonna get the…nomination unless she gets herself indicted with respect to what's happening with…the emails, okay?
 
I…you know, when I don't understand, you look at…what's happened to so many other people, and they're…you know, they went through…hell! Their lives have been destroyed for doing less than what Hillary Clinton did. What she did is an outrage! It's an absolute criminal outrage! And…for her to be able…to…run as a Democrat, that's why maybe Bernie Sanders isn't…isn't finished! But the only way you can say that is if something happens to her.
 
She's being protected by the Democrats, because what she did…and I see it! And whether I read about in the papers or I watch it with experts, legal experts, on television? Virtually every single one of them said, “what she did is a criminal act”, and “what she did is a very, very dangerous thing for a country”. And yet here she is, running for president!
 
So, I think that Hillary…honestly? She's a flawed candidate. And I think she's gonna be easy to beat. I think she's going to beat much easier to beat than most of the…16 people…that I competed with just recently.
 
Go ahead…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY.

To me always the number one security threat to the United States is nuclear. That's our biggest threat. It's our biggest…risk. The power of weaponry! And we have to be unbelievably…careful. The single biggest…it is not global warming. President Obama said, “the biggest threat to our country's global warming”. That’s called ‘give me a break’, okay?
 
The biggest threat to our country…is nuclear! And we cannot let Iran get a nuclear weapon…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna do something where…we'll have a real partnership with China.
 
You know, we have a lot of power over China. China has rebuilt itself by making a fortune…over us! China has power, tremendous power, over…North Korea. We have to be very vigilant on North Korea. We cannot let this guy go much further. And China should handle that problem. China can handle that from very easily. They don't…they say they can't, but they're toying with us, okay? They're toying with us. We have a lot of power. We’re gonna have a great relationship with China. We’re gonna have a great relationship with Putin, and Russia.
 
But let me tell you, China…has a lot of power of a North Korea, a tremendous amount of power! They just refuse to use it, and they refuse to talk about it. And they're toying with us. And right now they don't respect us. They don't respect our president, and because of that…they're getting away with murder. And this guy is getting away with murder.
 
What's going to happen…is…and…something very important to me, and to…a lot of other people, but very, very important to me…is nuclear weaponry. That is your single biggest threat in the world today.
 
Go ahead, Tom.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.31.04:
 
 
Well, my unfavorables have come down a lot over the last few weeks. Well, remember this. Okay. Remember…I saw it on all of the…cable stations and a lot of the networks. And I read it in a lot of papers.
 
I've had 55,000 negative ads, against me. When I ran in Florida, I had 14,000 negative ads. Millions and millions of dollars. And I won in a landslide. I've had…negative ads all throughout, and I've won…races…in a landslide, okay? In a landslide! You know it. You report it. You all report it! I'm not…even Carl would agree to that, right? I mean, landslides!
 
And yet, I have this tremendous amount of negative…you’d almost say, “do ads mean anything?”.
I think we're gonna hurt the…uh…industry pretty much, cause people are gonna say, “what does an ad mean?”. But I’ve had…;
 
Now, largely the edge were false…you know, a little…truth to some of them, perhaps, but largely false. But I have 55,000….; A 100,000,000…and even more negative ads.
 
Even in New Hampshire! I mean, Jeb spent millions and millions of dollars of…on negative ads, and I won New Hampshire in a landslide.
 
No, no! But now, what's happening…is…most of these people that have been fighting me are gone. And when I'm one-on-one with Hillary, she will be, as I said, easier to take down, much easier to beat than the people…many of the people that I’ve already beat.
 
Okay.

MR. TRUMP RE-TAKES THE FLOOR AT 00.32.30:
 
Well, I think they're hurting the party because, again, they have no path! Zero path to victory. And we're gonna win on the first ballot! We don't…look for the delegates on number two, three, four, five ballot.
 
And here's what I say: let's assume…it did go beyond the first ballot. And let's assume you're Reince, who's a very good man! Head of…RNC, [Republican National Committee]…Reince Priebus.  And…lets say, “oh, well, Trump was…uh…12 short; or 15 delegates short; or 25 short. But 500 more than Cruz, and far more than that ahead of Kasich”.
 
So, you go to a second ballot. Now Trump by that time will be 5 million votes, cause of California and the size of California, and I think Indiana, and other places. Trump by that time will be…5…million…votes ahead of Cruz. [He] Will be much more than five million votes ahead of Kasich. I mean, Kasich should be getting…he…he’s gonna get…; I call him ‘one…’; now I changed it. Now I changed it to ‘one-in-46’. I mean, how do you stay in the race?
 
And I would have won Ohio…had I not been given a dirty poll saying that at Florida was tougher than I thought. I stayed in Florida for two more days instead of going to Ohio. If I spent two more days in Ohio, I would have won it. Okay.
 
How do you pick a man on the second, or third, or fourth ballot…who has millions of votes…five, [or] si million votes…less than Trump, and I'm the one that brought all these people into the party! That's why the Republican Party is up almost 70 percent from four years ago! And, you know what’s gonna happen? …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Those people, at a minimum, they're gonna be very upset, very angry, but at a minimum, they’re just not gonna vote! They're not gonna vote!
 
So, how do you do this!? How do you say, “okay, Trump won by five million votes; Trump is five, [or] six…whatever, 100 delegates more than Cruz, and much more than that, having to do with Kasich. And…he brought millions of people into the party! And everybody is talking about the party, worldwide, how hot the Republican Party.

You know, some people used to say it stayed. Well, the Democrats…are 35 percent down from four years ago. The Republicans are almost 70 percent up from four years ago. So, how…? I mean, that's an amazing tribute…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And that's not because of…believe me, that's not because of Kasich or Cruz. That's because of me.
 
So, here's the thing: how do you say to them, “we're gonna choose…a man that lost by five million votes, and 500 delegates. We're gonna take him because…Trump was 14 delegates short of winning in the first ballot”. I don't think you could do that!
 
Now, with that being said, I intend to get…enough delegates, but that's it.
 
Okay! Uh…yes, ma'am. One more question. Go ahead.

I'll stick with my…feelings on immigration. If you look at what's going on immigration…and just look at the record numbers of people right now, that are pouring across the borders of this country. They're pouring…excuse me, excuse me. I just read it. And I read it in actually a legitimate journal. All right.
 
We…need…protection in our country. You look at the kind of crime, you look at what's going on, economically…we need mortars! And by the way, I want people to come into our country! But I want him to come in…legally! They’ve to come in through a process.

Excuse…excuse me?
 
Well, I think the only card she has is the woman's card. She's got nothing else going. And, frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don't think she'd get five percent of the vote! The only thing she's got going is the woman's card. And the beautiful thing is women don't like her, okay? And look how well I did with women tonight! …–THE CRWOD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
