Thank you.
 
Wow.
 
Thank you folks.
 
Thank you.
 
Thank you very much.
 
Look at these guys! Thank you. Sit down everybody.
 
We’ll have a little fun today. You know, we just did the big television thing downstairs. So they said, ‘could you come up and say hello to a few friends?’. And I would love to do that. And we're gonna have a little fun. We'll do some questions and answers, and…then I'll get back at the plane. I hate to leave Iowa. You know, I hate to leave. Can I stay? Can I stay at your house? –MEMBER IN THE CROWD ASKED YELLS ‘YEAH!’-…Huh?

We've had a great relationship with Iowa. We’ve had a lot of fun. I've been here a lot. I've made so many new friends. And it's been…ehm…tremendous people. Hard-working people. They love working, they love money…right? They love money coming out. But they really liked the work and they like…and they’re proud of their country, and I was telling somebody…like me. They love our country, and they wanna see it really…happen. And…lots of problems we have, but we're gonna to straighten it out. We're gonna make it so great. We're gonna make it great again. You know what I say, is…you're like your hat-MR. TRUMP POINTS AT SOMEONE SPECIFICALLY…-that says, very distinctly, right? Stand up. Let me see. Look at that at hat: ‘Make America Great Again’, right? –CROWD APPLAUDS. That's right.
 
So we've…we've had a very interesting time over the last couple of weeks. We did 60 minutes. I did 60 minutes. Not so long ago. You saw that. Then last week…Saturday Night Live. I don't know if anybody saw that –CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And…got much, much, much higher ratings than Hillary Clinton. That's nice, right? –CROWD CHEERS. So…that was good. But…but I mean, not even…close. So that was good. Actually one of the highest ratings they've…they’ve had in years, and it was really a lot of lot of fun doing it.
 
What I think I'm gonna talk about a little bit, cause downstairs…some of you are probably at the television show downstairs. And…what I wanna talk a little bit about is what's going on with respect to the border, and illegal immigration. And then we'll do some questions. And I look forward to doing that actually. But…we have to create…a border. And we have to have a border. And if we don't have a border we don't have a country folks. I mean, we don't have a country. And people are coming in. And they're coming in illegally. And the Border Patrol, who I really gotten to know…a lot of the Border Patrol people…they're fantastic. I was in Laredo, Texas not so long ago, and they are tremendous people. But they're told stand down, literally, use that term. Very military term. But they're told to ‘stand down’. And…they're…they’re…they wanna do their job, and they can't do their job. They're not allowed to do their job.
 
Now, as you know an executive order was signed, and shockingly…we actually just won in court. Can you believe that? I mean, it was challenged, and we won in court. And because we won in court, that orders so far…going to be out. Now they'll probably appeal it. Maybe they'll appeal it. I think they have to probably appeal it. But president Obama signed an executive order that basically said everybody just pour right into our country, pour right in. And no other country does that.
If you look at Mexico, it's impossible to become a citizen of Mexico. If anybody in this room, including me, want to become a citizen of Mexico, you can't do it. It's almost impossible…one of the hardest…countries in the world, and yet Mexico…who I, you know, I love the people of Mexico. I Have many, many people from Mexico working for me. Have tens…over the years, tens of thousands of people I've hired for jobs! One thing I say, I will be the greatest jobs president that God ever created, that's one thing I can tell you. A hundred percent -CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
There won't be a jobs president…there won't be a jobs president…I mean, I understand! We're losing our jobs, they're being taken away. We were talking about what happened right here, with Maytag, where they took it right to Mexico, and…four thousand jobs were lost…instantaneously! It wasn't even like over a period of time! It was like all of a sudden, you lose 4,000 jobs…many of you fo…folks worked for Maytag, and did a great job! You know, the image of Maytag was great! It was great! Now, I don't know what happened to it. You don't even hear about it anymore. Or what have happened to Maytag? Tell me! Does anyone know? It just disappeared, it went to Mexico! I think it disappeared! I used to buy a lot of Maytag products! I buy a lot of John Deere products, which is a great company. We can't let that happen. The John Deere, it won't happen to John Deere. It won't happen. But I'd buy a lot of John Deere. Millions and millions of dollars’ worth of John Deere. And I like to buy when I can…I like to buy.
 
Here, if you look at what's happening though, with…as an example Japan, that make Komatsu. And I tell the story of a friend of mine, who's in the excavation business,. Big excavator. That's what he does. He digs! And he uses a lot of excavation equipment and he's always bought Caterpillar, and then recently he was very upset, because he bought Komatsu! And it's fine, it's okay, it’s not as good, and…but it's fine! And he was very, very…upset. And depressed, actually…over…that, cause all his life he was buying Caterpillar. And he said to me, he said, ‘you know, it's really sad. They've so devalued their currency…’ …that he owes it to his family, to his wife, to his employees, to his company…to buy, you know, something for a much really a much lower. He said, ‘I would have paid more, but this was ridiculous’. And then you see what's happening with Caterpillar stock. It's going down. And…and they're getting hurt by many other companies, that are outside of this country, where…they play games with the currency. They manipulate the currency, and they make it very, very hard for our companies…to compete!
 
So I just wanna tell you that the people here are…so spectacular. And I know all about Maytag, and I know…in fact…! …I guess a couple of you…is Dave here? Is Dave…? Are they here? Cause a couple of the folks from…the area with 60 Minutes…and where's my Domino’s pizza, by the way? Where is it? Where is Domino’s? Where's the king of Domino’s? He's in here someplace. He's making me pizza for the plane. Can you believe it? –CROWD LAUGHS. It's great!
 
No, but I helped some of the folks out, because I watched that 60 Minute piece, which was catastrophic! But it was…ehm…I liked my piece much better. I thought it was very sad, what happened. And that was when…the whole event took place, and what happened to…the area. And I helped a lot of people in the town, when I saw that, because I felt badly. I didn't always gonna be running for political office. I didn't know that someday, years later, I'd be here talking to the same people! But they always kept in touch! And we…actually, were using for our advertising…we have a great printer. Where's my printer? Is he here? Tana? Is she here? Where is she? My printer, she's done a great job with all of my advertising. Where's Dave? Well he heard me before, he's probably out of here –CROWD LAUGHS-…you know, he's down…sit. No, he's probably printing our goods. We're doing -INAUDIBLE. MEMBER IN THE CROWD INTERRUPTS TRUMP, WHO ESTABLISHES DIALOGUE WITH THE PERSON-... ‘Oh! Does he like me? Does he like me?’ –MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS OUT ‘YEAH!’-… ‘now, you better! You're his dad? You're better looking than him! –CROWD GOES ‘OH!’-… ‘no, look at this guy, he looks much better!’. No, but he's… ‘you got a great boy, right? You have a great boy’. But we use him. He's doing a lot of our work for us. Now, and you know, we wanted to steer it that way. I don't know, maybe he's given us a bad price, who the hells knows? Who the hell knows? –CROWD LAUGHS-…right? I don't know. But he's a good boy and he's doing a good job, and he's…and I'm proud of him. But…and I'm proud of the other folks, because you had…you had Domino…come here –MR. TRUMP TALKS TO A MEMBER IN THE CROWD, WHO APPROACHES TO THE STAGE-… ‘come here, look at your father. Look what he looks like. Look how handsome, hey?’. He said…you have a…you have…you look like your mama’…–CROWD LAUGHS-…so, good job. Do you wanna say something to the folks? Say something, Dave. Come on!’.
 
DAVE, MEMBER FROM THE CROWD INTERVENES
MR. TRUMP INTERVENES BACK. Minute 00.09.42:
 
Thank you. So nice. Well, you know, he also produced, because…ult…ultimately, he doesn't produce…can’t use him, right? –CROWD LAUGHS. He’s gotta produce. But I'd say, ‘you fired Dave! Get out of here!’ –CROWD LAUGHS. But he produced, and so did a couple of other people in the area. And…ehm…I’ll let you know about the pizza later, cuz we helped out there, and I’ll tell you, I hear it's very good. So I'll let you know, if I don't like it I'll let you know –CROWD LAUGHS.
 
But, you know one of the things I'm just thinking, as David was speaking…there used to be a time…when…it said, ‘made in America’, right? Or ‘made in the USA’. That was like a status symbol. That was…that was a great thing. And remember what it said ‘made in Japan’? It was always considered to be a cheap product, right? It was always considered to be like not good. And you don't see ‘made in the USA’. You don't see those labels anymore! ‘Made in America’, ‘made in the USA’, you don't see them. And he we used to see them. But when they said ‘made in Japan’…it was incredible.
 
My daughter was telling me, Ivanka, we all know Ivanka. And she's…great. And she was in Czechoslovakia, because…relatives. And she said, you know, when she was a little girl growing up, and she'd go there for the summer, the people used to put a dollar bill…it didn't matter what it was…was…just one dollar. And they used to attach it. The people from Czechoslovakia. Smart people, tough people…make the most incredible glassware. I mean, they're very talented people. They used to put a talent…they used to take a dollar bill, and they put it on the windshield, and then scotch tape it onto the windshield. And…they were so proud…to have that dollar bill, on their car. And they were proud to say that, ‘wow, that's something that was…you know ‘It’s a dollar!’. But it was…made it was…from the United States. And…they all had it! And you don't see that anymore! And that's what we need! We need spirit.
 
One of the questions was talking about…how do we get people in, to go to the schools, go to the…different colleges, go to the junior colleges…the head of the college was here, great guy…and, you know, they feel so beaten. We are…the country doesn't have spirit anymore. It's…in all fairness Obama, I thought he'd be good for spiritizing. I wasn't sure he was gonna be good for something. And I wish he was! I'm a Republican, I'm a conservative person…and…I'd still like to see him do a great job as president! Now it's too late. It’s sort of over. He…well…he's gonna have to get going fast, right? –CROWD LAUGHS. So it's not gonna happen. But you know what? I thought he would always be good for…the…you know, as a cheerleader for the country, which is a very important part for being president, in my opinion. I think it's a very, very important part of being president.
 
When you look at what's going on with ISIS. I have some very good internet people with me. And they actually came here, because we're going someplace else that…we're doing some…crazy deal. And I have some very talented people, and I said, ‘you know, the internet is being used by ISIS to recruit. And…what they're doing…is they're essentially salesman’. I mean, they're taking our youth. They're taking people! Probably not even our youth, probably some older guys. I know you three are never gonna go, right? –MR. TRUMP POINTS AT PEOPLE IN THE CROWD. CROWD LAUGHS-…you are never going. I'd… ‘stand up!’ –MR. TRUMP ADDRESSES THEM AND THEY STAND UP. IT’S THREE VETERAN PEOPLE. Do you think these three gonna be recruited by ISIS? –CROWD CALLS OUT ‘NO!’. I don't think so! ‘Turn around!’ ‘Look!’ I don't think so! I think…hey! …I think when ISIS gets them, we've really got problems, okay? –CROWD LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS.
 
But you know, they're taking our youth. And I said to myself, we really…I mean, we're that…we’re the internet people! We’re the one that came up with it! Our companies came up with it! And…they're out doing us on the internet! Think of it! They have…tremendous wealth. Remember I've been saying for a long time, ‘bomb the oil fields. Stop their wealth’, right? They all said, ‘oh, that's terrible. That's so stupid to do. That's so stupid…’. I'm really good at this stuff. Now, they're bombing the oil fields. Right? Right? You notice!? And I'm getting credit from some people. But most of the reporters…don't…you know, mention it. They…even if they know it, they don't wanna say it. But I've been saying for a long time. Now I actually took him step further. I said, ‘bomb the oil fields, and keep the oil’. They won't do that, because they're not smart enough to do that. They'll bomb them and…and…and…you know, people will start going back and…and other people will take them.
 
But I've been saying that for a long time. And they're doing a lot of things. You know, one of the things that I…I…was…mentioning the other day, on one of the shows, Morning Joe, I don't know if you ever watch it. But Morning Joe, he’s a good guy. Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski. And…they were in the office, and they were doing the show…and somebody came up with my book that I wrote in the year 2000. Prior to the World Trade Center coming down. And in the book…is the only political book I had done. Except now, the new one is doing very well. But…I mean, up until this time…the only political book I ever did. And I said… ‘Osama bin Laden, you better check him, because the bad guy. He's making a lot of bad threats’…this was two thousand! And I said, ‘you better check him! Because he's going to crawl under a rock, and he's gonna come in, he's gonna get us, and you better go get him…! …or check him…!’ …and the reason I said, I mean, I'm like a smart guy, like all of us, and…I watch this guy making these very…terrible statements! So I wrote about…a guy named…Osama bin Laden. Who knew that he was gonna knock down the World Trade Center. Thousands and thousands of lives, and people, by the way, beyond the three thousand people that died. You have people that are devastated. You have families that are devastated! I see the people…every year, when they, you know…they have a vigil…I…I've…people are just devastated. They’re not gonna forget…what happened to their sons, and their daughters, and their brothers, and fathers, and mothers, and…they're never gonna forget it! You know, a lot of people say ‘time’, ‘time’…I don't think you're gonna have time. I don't think it's gonna be time.
 
So I see what happens…but I said that. And Joe Scarborough said, ‘well, when was that written?’. ‘It was 2000. Well it was like 18 months, I guess, before the World Trade Center’. He said, ‘whoa! That's amazing! Trump said this before the World Trade Center came down, that’s now…’. I mean, I do that stuff. That's what we need! We need somebody that knows…what's happening! That has an understanding! These politicians don't have it. They don't have it. They’re all talk, they’re no action, all they wanna do is get reelected. They don't give a damn about anybody…and they don't have the ability! They're not gonna make good trade deals. They don't know what corporate inversion is…which is basically, you know, the corporations are leaving, and they're dropping the jobs here, and they go into other countries. The politicians don't even…I was talking to two of them not so long ago, and I've been bringing it up big, cause corporate inversion is a big problem. We’re gonna lose a lot of companies out of this…
You know, in the old days they'd move from New York to Florida, to save tax. Now they're moving from the United States to another country, including Asia…to save tax. And to get money that they can't bring into this country, because we have…these tax laws that are so stupid, that they don't allow it. And…all of that will change if I…if I get in…and…and interchange for the positive. And we'll be getting a lot of jobs back: We'll be taking jobs back from China, we’ll be taking jobs back from Mexico…maybe we'll get Maytag back. You think we can get them back if they even exist? Do they exist? Where are they? But we'll…we'll be bringing a lot of jobs back. And…and it'll be a whole different story.
 
But we need people…that…really know what they're doing! I mean, I sort of watched that…I guess you all saw that article yesterday on Ben Carson, where…one of the people that is his cheap advisor, and consultant…said he's incapable of learning about foreign policy. He doesn't understand it! He does…he…he's incapable of learning! That was on the front page of the New York Times yesterday. That's a problem. That's the problem. It's not what we need! We need…and you know, this is serious business. We can't be nice. We can't be…we have…this is very, very serious business. So I will only tell you that…if I'm lucky enough…and this is such an important place. Iowa's so important…and I know…I'll make this pledge right now. I know a lot of people are talking about moving Iowa to the middle and back of the pack, and you've been hearing it. Iowa is staying right where it is. I tell you right now. It's not moving. I give you my word –CROWD APPLAUDS. I give you my word. You're not moving. You're not moving. And if you win, by the way, boy do I have power on that one! There's nobody gonna…nobody gonna be telling… ‘Iowa, you're gonna…you're gonna move back 12 weeks’, right? So you're staying right where you are. But…ehm…it's just been great being with you.
 
Why don't we do a few questions, and then you folks go home and enjoy yourselves. Yes. Go ahead, sir.

-BEFORE RESPONDING MR. TRUMP UTTERS A SERIES OF ‘OKAYS’ AS THE MEMBER IN THE CROWD MAKES THEIR QUESTION.
 
Alright, that's very nice. Thank you –CROWD APPLAUDS. That's…I really appreciate it. I wasn't sure…he was getting a little bit long…! –CROWD LAUGHS. I was gonna say ‘hurry up’ now I’m glad I didn't hurry him up, it was a very nice. I appreciate it very much. That's really nice.
 
Yes, ma'am, go ahead.
 
MEMBER IN THE CROWD MAKES A QUESTION
MR. TRUMP RESPONDS. Minute 00.20.20:
 
Okay. Yes, I know. Eight of them were caught. Very simply. We can't take them folks. We can't take them. We can't take them –CROWD APPLAUDS. It could be a Trojan horse. I looked at the migration, I see these people coming by the hundreds of thousands. And I say, they're men! They’re young man! They’re strong men! They look like soldiers! I said, ‘where are the women?’. Now, there's some little bit, but not much! And I say, ‘where are…they’re soldiers…! What's going on? Why aren't they back fighting?’. You know, they’re supposed to be fighting for their country. Why –ARE- they leaving? And you see this mass migration…you see the problems that Germany's having…I mean, I used to think Merkel was good! I think she's…I think what's…happening in German is…is horrendous! It's horrendous! The crime, the…the problems, these towns…these beautiful towns, that never had a problem, and now…you look at what's going on in the towns…with all of the big problems that they're having…and I'm saying to myself…and by the way, I have a bigger heart than anybody! But we have to take care of them…I…I don't mind helping. Let's go to Syria, let's build a big safe area. There's plenty of land over there. We have land that…you'd ever saw so much land. But we build a safe area, and we help. But we have to get other people to help too! We need Germany to help. We need other countries to help. We need the Gulf states to help. They make a fortune! And they're not doing anything! They're not doing anything! They're not taking anybody! They're not spending money.
It’s always gotta be the United States. You know, we owe 19 trillion dollars. We don't know what we're doing. We're led by incompetent people, and we're the ones that want to lead and grab people and bring them in. We don't know who they are! They don't have paperwork. They don't have anything!
 
We are gonna have a wall. We're gonna have a border. We're gonna have such a strong border. And people are gonna come into the country. They're gonna come in legally. It's a big thing for me. When I announced it…you know, I…don't know if you know, but illegal immigration was not a big thing until I announced it. When I announced I said it strongly, because I knew there were a lot of problems.
 
And then you had beautiful Kate in…San Francisco gets shot in the back, by a guy that's been here…you know, terrible…right? And you had others. So many others! You had Jamel in Los Angeles, you had a woman…who was a…veteran, a military veteran. Ehm…she was killed 66 years old. SHE- Was raped, sodomized, and killed by…a…an illegal immigrant, and…many, many more! Many, many more! It's not gonna happen anymore! We're not gonna let…we're not gonna be stupid anymore! We're gonna build this…country so great, so strong, and I say it! You know, I…I…we're gonna make it better than ever before! We have a chance to make it…I think better than ever before! We're gonna get a lot of your jobs back, in this area, because your area got devastated, in one day it was like gone…! You lost four thousand jobs! They went to Mexico! How does that help this country…to allow that to happen? And that…the laws…really gave…Maytag….in all fairness to Maytag, they gave…Maytag like the incentive to go! I guess if you're running a company maybe it's the right thing to do. It destroyed this section. That's how I got to know you, by watching…what…destruction took place here. When I'm watching 60 Minutes that night.
 
So…we're not gonna have it, and we're not gonna be the stupid people anymore, we're gonna be the smart people. You know, I've done really well, and one of the reasons…I tell you! I mean, I've done really well. I put in papers that are monstrous. People are really impressed. You know, they were hoping my company would be a little tiny company, wouldn’t…
It turned out to be much bigger, right? It turned out to be much bigger, much stronger, and a tremendous company. Very little debt, tremendous cash flows…all of the things that you need. Great assets! Among the great…Doral, and Miami, and Turnberry…in Scotland… I have great assets and…really iconic! And I don't say bragging! I say it because that's the kind of mentality…whether it's good or bad…but that's the kind of mentality we need in this country! We can't continue…to be a laughingstock of the world!
 
We lose every year with China…500 billion dollars in terms of trade imbalance. Think of it! 500 billion! How do you recover from that? They take our jobs. They take our base. They take the manufacturing. They take our money. We’re losing 500 billion dollars! A year! Last year was 400 and something. This year is gonna be, they say 505. Five hundred and five billion!
 
You have Japan. They don't want your beef! They don't want your beef! You know, how many times did they send it back? The farmers don't want it. Because they have nationalistic pride. I don't even blame them! But…in terms of the cars, I was in Los Angeles a few months ago. And I watch cars pouring off the larger ships I've ever seen…like…they're going like 50 miles an hour off these ramps! In to us. No tax, no nothing. And you know it's fine! Except…with Japan it's 70 billion dollars a year…of a trade imbalance, with this country! So we send them…practically nothing…! They send us the cars…
We have all the…say…look! If you're like me, we have all the cards folks. We have all the cards! You know, everyone says, ‘oh, well, it's too bad. It's too…’, because they're not business people! Politicians don't know! Our leaders don't know, cause they're incompetent! But the politicians that I'm running against…they…or…they don't even know what corporation inversion is. They…they don't know! They don't know. It's not their…expertise. Their expertise is getting elected. That's all they can do well. They get elected.
And I'm doing pretty well, cause I'm leading them in every poll. So I don't know. That's their expertise. That's their expertise! –CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
 
But…we're gonna change it. And…you’re gonna be very proud of this country. You're gonna be very proud again. Because right now, everybody's depressed! It’s my answer to the man…with the college's! I said…you know, he's a great guy! He's done a great job! But we have to get…spirit in this country. This country does not have spirit!
 
And we have a tremendous unemployment! Probably its twenty-five percent, not the 5.2 that you read about. That's nonsense. That's put there for the politician, so they look good. You have tremendous unemployment in this country. And it's a real problem. We're gonna solve it.
 
Yes, go ahead –POINTING AT ANOTHER MEMBER IN THE CROWD.

-MR. TRUMP UTTERS A ‘THANK YOU’ DURING THE PARTICIPANT’S QUESTION.
 
I'm against it. I’m…I'm for defunding Planned Parenthood, very strong –CROWD APPLAUDS. Okay? And that's…really come…it's been such a big subject lately, especially when you're looking on television, and you're seeing…you know, some of those clips that are…terrible. So I am totally for defunding. But we shouldn't be giving to Planned Parenthood.
 
Yes, sir. Go ahead.

MR. TRUMP INTERRUPTS. Minute 00.26.58:
 
I’m fine with it. Look, any form of energy. We gotta get away from the Middle East. I will say wind is a problem, because it's very expensive to build…the…towers, very, very expensive. And as you know, when you have forty-dollar oil…it's, you know, it's not economic, so they are gonna have to do a subsidy, if they do a substitute…otherwise wind isn’t gonna work. Wind is a very expensive form of energy. And it's got problems of storage, and lots of other things. But…I wanna see whatever you can do. Ethanol…I'm…totally in favor. I wanna see whatever you can do to…we have to get away from the Middle East.
 
Now, the good news is…with the fracking it turned out, with all of the modern technology…over the last five years, we never realize it. We're sitting on a gold mine. And…we have enough energy under our feet now, to take care of us for…many, many hundreds of years! So that's so great! We never knew that! Five years ago we had no idea! We thought we're gonna be reliant on…the Middle East, and Saudi Arabia. We should have…we still should have kept the oil…when we left Iraq, right? Should have kept the oil! We didn't do that! Our geniuses didn't do that. They said, ‘oh, how could we do such a thing?’.
 
But we are a…we are a…very rich, potentially, very rich country. Wind will need…need subsidy. It's gonna have to have subsidy.
Yes. Yes, sir.

MR. TRUMP RESPONDS. Minute 00.28.28:
 
I think it is free fall. I think if you look over the last week and a half, two weeks. And maybe I helped it along, by making a speech…two weeks ago, which I thought was a really good speech. I was very proud of it. I spoke for about an hour and a half, with no notes. Right? Anybody there? All right? I spoke for…-CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. And it was a good speech. But…and some people thought it was great, and some people thought it was not good, because they thought I was…too tough. But they…they were the ones that only watched little snippets. Because you know, it's a web. It's like…it's like a chess game. And I talked about the Carson campaign. And I talked about it…with respect. I'm just saying what he said.
 
First of all, yesterday, as you know, in the New York Times you saw that piece, but it's all over the place. I mean, it's all over. But he’s…his…his…and I said it before. His consultant said that he…ehm…he's incapable of learning foreign policy. They gave up, they were exasperated. We can't have a man incapable of learning foreign policy! WE- Can’t have it! They said he was incapable of learning! That's devastating! I mean, this thing is…you know, we love…our area, our towns, our cities. We're gonna be involved with foreign policy for a little while folks.
 
We’re gonna get rid of that cancer out there. There's a lot of things happening. We have to be really good, and really sharp on foreign policy. Or we're gonna have bigger problems than we've never had. And you understand. I think when I say that, you understand. You're the one that brought it up to me. But then you go into the book and what I did, and I’m just gonna go quickly. But you know, he wrote a book, while ago, before he was gonna run for office…and he said he suffers from pathological disease! Pathological disease is a big problem! -CROWD LAUGHS. That's not a curable disease, unless you're taking medication! So he’s suffering from pathological disease! And he said…you know, he’s an…pathological temper, pathological disease…in the same sentence. And I said, ‘that's big!’. I said, to the people of Iowa, no…because the one person that's staying with me in the polls, in Iowa…not elsewhere. Not anymore.
 
By the way, the new polls come out of, I'm doing great! You know, in Massachusetts…48 for Trump, and I think it’s nine…right? It's nine, or something…for…for…whoever is second. Not Carson –CROWD APPLAUDS.
 
But you know why that? Is because Tom Brady likes me, I'm telling you. Tom Brady…Tom Brady said great things about me said. That helps. When you're in Massachusetts, if Tom Brady says good things, that helps. And he's a great guy, Tom Brady's a great guy, by the way. And he is a seriously good quarterback. Do we agree? You could use him on Iowa. And, or Iowa State, but not doing badly. Right? Boy, could you guys use him!
 
Well Iowa was doing…Iowa was doing very well. And Iowa State’s so good. So anyway, but…but when you talk…just to finish off.
So I talked about that. Then I said, ‘he wrote about he tried to hit his mother over the head with a hammer’. I said… ‘what's that!?’. I'll bet nobody in this room did that! But he tried to hit his mother over the head with a hammer. I said, ‘what!?’. And I'm seeing this! And…then I see that he hit his friend in the face with a lock, a padlock: boom! Really hard. And then I see that he went after another friend with a knife, named Bob. But it turned out it wasn't Bob, it was another name…and now they're trying to figure out who it was…it's…I'm telling you folks, he got a problem there.
 
But…you know, the belt stopped the knife. And I…actually got on the stage, I said, ‘the bell can't stop a knife, cause it twists and turn’. If I hit you –MR- TRUMP POINTS AT SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD SPECIFICALLY-…where the belt is…that knife is going in, right? It's not stopping the belt, because it's gonna…turn, and slide…and no…unless you're wearing a UFC belt –CROWD LAUGHS. Unless you were the ultimate fighter belt. Or a Vince McMahon belt. That one's got a pretty good chance. But you're not gonna get it. ‘A belt buckle stopping a knife!’. It's gonna slide! So it went through the whole thing.
 
And we have…I mean…it's…it's ridiculous! And remember this…in order to have credibility…he said these things happened! So when I first heard this, I said, ‘do you mean he's saying it didn't happen!?’. He said, ‘no, he wants them to have happen’. I said, ‘do you mean he wants to have be known that he went…?’. ‘Because…otherwise he loses credibility!’. Well, it turned out that ‘Bob’…is no…you know, it's not ‘Bob’. The whole thing is a mess.
 
And…hey folks! …you have him doing pretty well in the polls, not me! But I'm glad you asked that question. Because the question is…it's a…it's a strange thing that's happening. Although I do hear I'm number one in Iowa again –CROWD APPLAUDS. But I did lose my position for a little while! And I wasn't exactly thrilled with that folks! I wasn't happy with it!
 
Anyway…we've had…by the way, over the last…ehm…over the last 48 hours…actually since the last debate. We've…cause we did well in the last debate. And we've had tremendous polls come down. I mean, really strong, really, really strong pulse. We've had some…thirty-eight to twenty. Thirty-eight…ehm…I think it was one…42 to…like 19, 18. And…it wasn’t Carson. And second it was…you know, some other people that…I’ll…I'll start doing a number on them, cause believe me: lightweights, you don't wanna have them –CROWD LAUGHS. You don't wanna have them. So anyway…so we've had some tremendous polls come down.
 
Go ahead. Did you have a question? Good!

MR. TRUMP INTERRUPTS. Minute 00.35.32:
 
Well…and one of the reasons I think you feel a warmth…is that…you know, I've been the strongest by far toward the veterans. Our veterans are being treated, in many cases, worse than the illegal…immigrants that are coming in. And they used to say ‘the illegal aliens’. I never even liked that, cause that means somebody from out of space, you know. But they were upset…everybody was upset by that term…term…I like the word illegal immigrant, cause that's what is. And they are treated better in many cases…than…our veterans.

And you probably saw it three weeks ago. I put in a plan, which is a…very good plan! Some of the veterans are waiting. These are people that fought for us, they've lost arms…they've lost legs…they've lost…worse than that! And…they can't even get to see a doctor. The…waiting time in a reception room for a doctor now is the longest…as of three months ago, on a Wednesday, I remember it was a Wednesday. Three months ago on a Wednesday, is the longest in the history of the Veterans Administration, People were waiting five or six days. I mean, can you imagine you, or me, or anybody…waiting five, or six days…to see a doctor! And then sometimes the doctor wouldn't even…care, or wouldn't be there. In one case, the man said he waited six days, and the doctor said, ‘I'm sorry, I'm finished. I'm going on vacation. I'm leaving for vacation’, after waiting six days.
 
So we came up with a plan that I think is great, and it's practical. And it's gonna actually…in my opinion, you're gonna cost less. Cause it's not really the money! It's that…you have all…you know, a lot a lot of corruption, a lot of crooked stuff. What happens is…if you go to the doctor's office, and if you have a day waiting, and you have…you can't get service, you're gonna go to a private doctor. Or you’re gonna go to a hospital nearby, a public, or private, wherever. You're gonna get yourself taken care of and we're gonna pay the bill. It's gonna be very simple! It's cheaper! It's actually onna be cheaper!
 
But you're gonna to go into a private doctor. Or you’re gonna get…we can get a real…you know, good, good…everything. And if you don't like him, you go to another…to the one that you like. We're gonna pay the bill. We're gonna take care of it. And that's a lot cheaper than what's happening! You know, thousands of people…and I had no idea until a year ago! Thousands of people…tens of thousands of people are dying! With…veterans! Dying waiting for a doctor! On things that could be cured with a pill! With a minor procedure! They're dying! Tens of thousands…! I mean, I heard a number so high…that it's almost inconceivable. Like hundreds of thousands!
 
But tens of thousands of people are dying…trying to see a doctor! Because they can't get in! On simple procedures…where you can have a simple…procedure and you're gonna be better! Where you can get a prescription, and you're gonna be better! They can't even get a prescription. So…we're gonna take care of that. We're gonna make the Vets proud again to be…an American. Okay? –CROWD APPLAUDS.
 
Okay. How about we'll take one more? If it's a good one. If it's a bad one, we’ll keep going until we get a good one. Okay? Go ahead.

Well we're gonna get accountability. And, you know…again, I've never been a politician. I've been a huge jobs producer. I produced tens of thousands of jobs. I built tremendous projects all offer. Big businesses and projects. Mostly projects, real estate deals. And I'm proud of that! You know, taking care of a lot of families. They didn't have to worry about Obamacare, which is a disaster, which we're repealing and replacing. It's a disaster. The…the premiums, you see…-CROWD APPLAUDS-…you talk about health care. You see what's going on. The premiums…and…I mean they're going through the roof.
 
So we are gonna get…we are going to get people…to do the right thing. And we can't elect another politician! I know these people! It's not gonna work. It's not gonna work! I dealt with politicians all my life. I have nothing against politicians! I said in the Other Room, on the television interview. I said, ‘they want to get…the thing they are really good at is getting reelected’. And I dealt with them all my life! I've done very well! If you can't do well with a politician, then you shouldn't be in business. Okay? I've done great with the politicians.
 
Now I'm on the other side. I'm self-funding my campaign. I'm putting my own money. And these guys are all using these Super PACs …-CROWD APPLAUDS. We sent nine or eleven letters out. We don't want Super PACs! We sent letters to these Super PACs. We don't…I could have so much more money…in terms of…well, I have more money than all of them anyway –CROWD LAUGHS. I mean…but it's my money. But Bush has like a hundred million dollars, Bush! He's got all…let me tell you: he's totally controlled! Totally controlled…by the people that gave him that money. Bush.
 
So is Rubio. Rubio is totally controlled by the people that gave him the money. Do you know yesterday Rubio was in California doing a fundraiser for himself? Instead of going in…they had a very important committee meeting for ISIS and what's going on with…the whole homeland security thing. And…Rubio was in California, doing a fundraiser. He's missed more votes than anybody. He's attendance is abysmal. And he wants to be…
You know, if I were from Florida, I mean, you…this isn't your problem. But…we elect this guy who's…ambitious. And…they elect him senator, and he doesn't show up to vote! I'd be damned angry! And interestingly in Florida, I'm killing him in the polls! I'm killing him! But…I can understand it! –CROWD APPLAUDS. If I were from Florida, and I elect this guy…and he's never shows up to vote…because he's campaigning…and other people campaign, and they go in and vote! More than him at least! But I would be very angry. But yesterday, with what just happened in Paris…he's out in California, and he's raising money…so that he can buy ads. So that you people can see how wonderfully is, right? And he's out there raising money, and he's not going to Washington to learn about Homeland Security, and he's on one of the committee's. I think it's outrageous, I'll tell you. I'm so sick and tired of politicians. And I think it's why I'm doing well. I mean, I can be more politically correct than anybody. Hey, look I went to Ivy League school, and I was smart…I did…it was…good student, it wasn't hard for me…you know, it was like…all of the stuff.
 
But…but I'll be honest with you: I think that…it's now time! I don't…this whole thing with political correctness. And I always say: you don't see ‘Merry Christmas’ anymore. Right? Because it's not politically correct. Guess what folks! When I win, if I win, when I win…whatever, I will tell you we're gonna all be saying ‘Merry Christmas’ again. That I can tell, wa'll be saying Merry Christmas again, okay? –CROWD APPLAUDS.
 
So I just wanna thank you all, it's…oh, look at this! I…I remember him, right? Come on! –DAVE, THE ORGANIZER OF THE EVENT APPARENTLY, INTERRUPTS TO ADVERTISE SOME MERCHANDISING.
  
MR. DONALD TRUMP INTERRUPTS. Minute 00.42.19:

I…I did pay for it! That’s beautiful!
