Oh, this is a great place! …-THE CROWD STARTS CHANTING ‘TRUMP!’. Thank you! Thank you! …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Thank you very much. Great evening. We will be celebrating for a long…time tonight! Have a good time! …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Have a good time!
You know, we weren't expected…a couple of months ago, we weren't expected to win this one. You know that, right? We weren't. Of course if you listen to the pundits, we weren't expected to win too much and now we're winning, winning, winning. The country…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And soon the country is going to start winning, winning, winning…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So I wanna thank…uh…the volunteers. They've been unbelievable. These people, they work like endlessly. Endlessly…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're not gonna forget it.ç
And we've had some great numbers coming out of Texas…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And amazing numbers coming out of Tennessee, and Georgia…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS-…and Arkansas! And then a couple of weeks later Florida! We love Florida, so…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna do very well in Ohio. We're…beating the governor. That's good. It's always nice to be beating the governor.
And Michigan. And it…the whole thing. I mean, it's going to be…an amazing two months…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We might not even need the two months, folks, to be honest, all right? …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So tonight we had 45, 46 percent. And tomorrow you'll be hearing…; you know, if they could just take the other candidates and add them up…-THE CROWD LAUGHS. And if you could add them up…because, you know, the other candidates amount to 55 percent! So if they could just add…; they keep forgetting that when people drop out, we're gonna get a lot of votes! …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You know, They keep forgetting. They don't say it!
So I wanna begin by thanking my boys. Eric has been…all over the place making speeches. He's getting better than me, so I'm a little jealous…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And Don went up to Elko…and you were all over, right? …-MR. TRUMP ADDRESSES HIS SON WHO IS ONSTAGE, TO HIS RIGHT. And he loves the rifle stuff. This is serious…rifle. This is serious…NRA. Both of them…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. So…both of them.
We love the Second Amendment, folks. Nobody loves it more than us. So just remember that…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And Cory, and Hope, the staff. The whole group. And Charles, and…Dan. And…what a group we have. It's just been amazing.
I wanna just…thank a couple of friends of mine that are here. The owner of this incredible hotel, Mr. and Mrs. Phil Ruffin. Stand up…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [A] Great guy. Phil said, “Donald…”, like…for the last three months. He's driving me crazy. He said, “Donald, I wanna put 10 million dollars into your campaign”.
I said, “Phil, I don’t want your money. I don’t wanna do it. I’m self-funding”. Everytime I see him…! It’s hard for me to turn down money, because that’s not what I’ve done in my whole life. I grab, and grab and grab! …-THE CROWD LAUGHS. You know, I get greedy. I want money, money! Now, I’m gonna grab…what…; I’ll tell you what we're going to do, right? We get greedy, right? Now we're gonna get greedy for the United States. We're gonna grab, and grab, and grab…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna bring in so much money! And so much everything! We're going to make America great again, folks. I'm telling you. We're going to make America great again. …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And another great friend of mine, somebody respected by everybody. A great friend of Phil too…Mr. and Mrs. Steve Wynn. Stand up, Steve…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Stand up! Two great people. Steve is always calling. He's always got advice. Right, Steve? “Donald, I think you ought to do this! And that…!”. His advice I like to listen to. I’ll be honest with you. So Phil and Steve and families, we appreciate it. You've been great friends. Thank you. Thank you…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So…this was very exciting tonight. But I'll tell you. It looks like we won by a lot. Evangelicals…I love the Evangelicals…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And, I have to tell you. Pastor Jeffress has been so incredible…! On television, and elsewhere. He has been great. And as you know, Liberty University. Do we love Liberty University? …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS Huh!? Jerry…Falwell…Junior! An unbelievable guy. And he has been with us and with us from the beginning. And I wanna thank Jerry and his family. It's been…amazing, the relationship.
So, we won the Evangelicals. We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated. We're the smartest people. We're the most loyal people. And you know what I really am happy about? Cause I've been saying it for a long time. 46 percent with the Hispanics! 46 percent! …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Number one…with Hispanics! So…-THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Thank you.
So, I’m very proud of you. This is an amazing night. And you know, I love the country. I love the country. We’re going…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're going in the wrong direction. We're going to keep…as you know, Gitmo, we’re keeping that open. And we're going to load it up with bad dudes…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUD. We're gonna load it up with a lot of bad dudes out there. We're gonna have our borders nice and strong. We're gonna build the wall. You know that. [We’re] Gonna build the wall…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And I have a lot of respect for Mexico. And you just heard, we won Hispanics. But let me tell you. Mexico is going to pay for the wall. Right? …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [It’s] Going to happen! It’s going to happen. They know it. I know it. We all know it. We have a tremendous deficit. We have a trade deficit with Mexico. They'll pay for the wall. They'll be very happy about it. Believe me. I'll talk to them. They'll be very, very thrilled…-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. They're gonna be thrilled to be paying for the wall.
We're gonna be the smart people. We're not gonna be the people that get pushed around all over the place. We're gonna be the smart people. You're gonna be proud of your president. And you're gonna be even prouder of your country. Okay? …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So tonight, folks, this was a great evening. I love this place. I love this state. I love Las Vegas. I have spent and invested so much money over here. Trump International Hotel. I keep telling Steve [that] we have the best hotel in Las Vegas. He's fighting me all the time. But that's not…-THE CROWD LAUGHS.
But…I just wanna say, it's a great state. And they have great people. And I was so proud. You know, I went to caucus! I was all over the place tonight. The people…are…amazing! The enthusiasm…! It was…unbelievable to see. The people of this country are…absolutely…amazing!
