Wow! Thank you! Thank you, Chris. [It’s] So great! I got a call a couple of weeks ago, from Chris Christie and he said, “I really…think it's amazing what's happened”. You know, it's called…something special. It's…whether it’s momentum, or whether it's…whatever. We have something going…that people haven't seen before. It's really a drive. And…I mean, honestly, they're talking about it's one of the great things that they've seen in political history. It's been on the cover of Time. It's been at the head of every newspaper. It's really…something…special! We're gonna make our country so much better! It's going to be great again, and it's going to happen quickly…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, I just wanted to…you know, I changed my plans a little bit. We're doing great in Florida. We're doing great in Illinois. Missouri, I think we're gonna have a tremendous day. And I said, I have to come out here and we have to explain a couple of things, because…what's going on…, you know, I don't know if you know, [if] you read The Art of the Deal, but I worked for a long time in Ohio. And, my father and I, when I was very young, I bought a job with my father. And…it was…a great success. It was in Cincinnati. And it was a great success. It was a horrible job. It was a mess. And I took it over. I fixed it. I worked here summers; I worked here…I’d come out all the time…; and we bought it for ‘X’, and we sold it for ‘X’. And after that, the job didn't do too well, I have to tell you. But we were gone. We were gone.
And usually we hold, but this time we didn’t. So, it gave me…an unbelievable feeling for the people of Ohio. I stayed here. I work here. And I love the people of Ohio! And…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And it was really one of my first big jobs. And…and I said…1164 units. And we bought it from the FHA for like nothing, and we sold it for a lot of money. And, it gave me like that…it's like if you're…a baseball player you get that first tip. Or if you're a golfer and you sink the first three-foot putt. You know, [it’s] one of those deals. But it gave me a great confidence. And I've always loved this place. So, I just wanna tell you that, folks. So…–THE CROWD CHEERS-…thank you. Thank you.
So, this all began…and this began very strongly in June. June 16th to be exact. And I said to my wife, “we have to do this. This is something we have to do. Our country is being so badly led. It's being led into this horrible deal, with Iran”. I mean, this deal where we pay 150 billion dollars, [and] we…get…nothing! We should have never even started negotiating the deal until we got our prisoners back! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
They never once walked. They never once did anything. Constantly, you'd see…back in Iran, you’d see the people dancing in the streets before the deal was done! They're dancing! They're calling us all stupid! The deal was a…it was a joke! Except for it so serious, it was a joke! It was one of the worst negotiated transactions of any kind I've ever seen. They could have walked! They could have gone in and said, “before we start, we need our prisoners back!”. This would be three and a half four years ago!
And they would have said, “no”. The Persians [have] been great negotiators. They would have said, “no”. And then we get up and we walk, and we go out and we double up the sanctions, and within 24 hours, they would call back. They said, “we're giving you back the prisoners”.
Then we go in a second time. And we say, “listen, we have a problem. We owe 19 trillion dollars. We can't give you the hundred and fifty billion dollars back. [We] can't do it! Sorry!”. And I tell that story. You know, actually, some of the media…who by the way, are the…most…dishonest…people…on earth! Okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. The worst! [It’s] True! [It’s] True! [It’s] So true! [It’s] So True!
Like…look at this massive crowd of this big hangar! And…and we set this up! Remember, we set this up like…what? 15 hours ago!? Right!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…just look, cuz I wanted to come up. This is a place I wanna win! This is the place! This is gonna do it! Ohio is gonna make America great again! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Kasich cannot…make…America…great…again! [He] can't do it! He can't do! …–THE CROWD BOOS.
If you didn't hit oil…and that wasn't because of him, believe me. If you didn't hit oil, you would have had a disaster. This would have been as bad as any of them, and…you got lucky. Now the problem is oil has gone way down, and yet, your budget’s gone up 35 percent, more than any other state in the United States. That means you're gonna have a big, big problem. It's already being talked about.
Two days ago, I was in Cleveland. We made a speech…it was unbelievable. Like…25,000 people…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And just before I went on, one of the managers of the…arena came over, and…the great Patrick Park. You know Patrick and Raymond…Park. [They’re] Great people. They own it. They do such a beautiful job. And he said, “it's so sad, Mr. Trump. Right over there, Eaton Corp., [they’re] going to Mexico. Right over there, Ford, [they’re] going to Mexico”. Then he pointed over here…–MR. TRUMP POINTS TO THE FRONT, [then] he pointed to two or three other places, and I said, “wow, that sad!”. And that's what's happening, folks! That's what's happening!
With me? It ain’t gonna happen anymore. We're not gonna be the dummies anymore. We're not gonna be the dummies anymore…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You're losing your jobs; you're losing your income; you're losing your factories. They're going to China. They're going to Mexico. Japan is killing us with the cars. Now it's Vietnam. It’s India. It’s everybody. We don't make good deals anymore. We don't win anymore! If you think, we don't win anymore! Where do we win!?
We lose on trade. We lose with the military. We can't beat ISIS! We can't beat ISIS! Here we have…military, and we can't beat ISIS. We don't wanna use our military. We don't know how to win anymore. It's not even in our culture anymore.
You know, the old expression “to the victor belong the spoils”, right? We should have never gone in, and I did not wanna go. And believe me, I said, “you're gonna destabilize the entire Middle East”. But they went into Iraq. It was a mistake. They went in. [It was a] Mistake!
Now Obama gets out. The way he got out was so bad! He puts out a date! The enemy says, “wow!”. They couldn't even believe it, I guarantee you! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. He puts out a date when we're leaving. [It is/was a] bad thing to do. In all fairness, we shouldn't have been there, but we should’ve left some troops behind, so thatwhat happened wouldn't happen.
So, Iran is taking over as you stand here. Iran is taking over Iraq. Iraq has the second largest oil reserves in the world. So, the Iran deal…I used to say one of the greatest deals I've ever seen…is the Iran deal! But, actually, the greatest feel I've ever seen is what happened just now: Iran is taking over Iraq! [The] Second largest oil reserves in the world! That's the greatest deal! They've been fighting with Iraq forever! Forever! And they go 10 feet one way, 10 feet the other way, 10 feet…! Then they rest. Then they go, again! For years, and years, and years they fought. But they were the same! They were equal military strength.
Saddam Hussein would drop gas; they'd complain, they drop gas. This is what…this went on forever! And then we obliterated one of the two powers. And it was obvious! To me it was obvious. And I said, “don't do it, you're gonna destabilize it”.
Now Iran is taking over Iraq. Iran is going in with Yemen. Now, they don’t want Yemen. What they like is that long, big, beautiful border…that separates Yemen…from Saudi Arabia! And I’ve been…I’ve been really pretty good in these predictions.
You know, when I wrote a book, in the year 2000 The America…We Deserve, I mentioned, in the book, Osama bin Laden. And everyone said…don't forget, that was a year and a half before the World Trade Center came down. And everyone said, “I don't believe it!”. One of the big announcers in the morning. [A] Great guy. He said, “wait a minute”, because they brought the book.
They said, “you know, Trump was talking about Osama bin Laden before he knocked down the World Trade Center”. And the guy said, “no way. No way. Let me see”.
They looked at the book. That's right. That's what I did! We had to take him out! We had opportunities to take him out! So, I'm pretty good at the…prognostication. And I'll tell you, four years ago, and a lot of you are supporters and you are supporters before I did this whole crazy political thing…okay!? We've been supporters and friends for a long time! but you've seen…I said, “take the oil!”. I didn't wanna be there! But now we're there! I said, “you're gonna leave, take…the…oil! Take…the…oil!”. I kept saying it.
And they said, “you can't take the oil! What a terrible thing! This is a sovereign country!”. This is a country who has blown off the face of the earth! Sovereign…!? You had the leaders that we left behind [that] were totally corrupt. They were totally corrupt! It’s horrible! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It’s horrible!
These were corrupt people! That's what happened with ISIS! They wouldn't include these people! And ISIS turned out! And Isis turned out to be a lot tougher a lot smarter than the people we chose! They didn't include them! So, who has the oil? Iran has the oil, and ISIS has the oil.
What do we have? We spend years there two trillion dollars in cost. Two trillion. Thousands of lives. Wounded warriors, who we all love all over the place…–THE CROWD CHEERS–…what do we have!? We have nothing! If our leaders…would have gone away, elected president, tell him to go away to the beach and just sun themselves for four years, we would have been better off!
Now, Saddam Hussein was not a good person! Who cares!? I'll tell you what he was great at: killing terrorists! He would kill terrorists. Now Iraq is Harvard University for terrorists! You go to Iraq…? [If] You wanna be a terrorist, you go to Iraq. It's Harvard! That's what they do! They kill! We don't do! They develop terrorists all over the place now! It is far worse than it was before we started.
Now, in the meantime, we have our country…it's crumbling! You look at our airports! You look at our hospitals! You look at our roads, and our highways. You look at our bridges, they're falling down. You look at our schools. Our country is falling apart! We've become third world in many respects!
You know, you go to Dubai; you go to Qatar; you go to some of these…places, and you land at airports, and you say, “oh, man! Look at this Airport”.
I was in Qatar, and they were touring me…the airport! They were showing me this beautiful airport. And I said…Ackbar…named Ackbar, [a] good guy. [A] Nice guy. I get along with everybody! You have to get along! But they were showing me, the head of the airline, [a] wonderful guy: “Mr. Trump, this is this, and this is that. And here we have this, and we have spas for the people…”.
I said, “this is beautiful!”.
He goes, “no, no, no, no, no. This is just temporary! The real airport is being built over there!”. And he appoints and there’s 40 cranes building the most incredible airport! And then I get back on my plane, I land at LaGuardia with potholes all…all over the…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. Right!? We're becoming third-world! You look at what's going on!
So, here's the story folks: [It’s] so important, you gotta vote tomorrow. You gotta vote. If you have a headache…–THE CROD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. If you're dying…I mean, if you're dying…! If you just went to your doctor, although that would cost too much cause Obamacare, you know…–THE CROWD CHEERS. We're repealing and replacing Obamacare, that I can tell you…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But if you go to your doctor and he tells you’re…you're over, it's over. It's just done. You're done! You're gonna be dead in three weeks. [It] Doesn't matter! Get out tomorrow and vote! Think about your children! Think about your family! Get out tomorrow and vote! Okay? You gotta do it. You gotta do it. So, you know, it's a movement! It's a movement like they haven't seen.
I'll tell you what. The cover of Time, four times in the last…couple of months, take a look! That's what they're writing. The single…biggest…story in politics today, in the world…is what's happening…of all things, to the Republican Party. We had a party that was obsolete! We had a party…Mitt Romney couldn't run for…for dog catcher! This guy was a disaster! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. We had a party…we had a party that you should’ve won the last election. We had the wrong person.
You know, it's interesting: I backed McCain, he lost! I backed Romney, he lost! I said, “this time, we're gonna do it ourselves, folks”. We're gonna do it right. We're gonna do it right…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We gotta do it right.
So, the biggest story in politics, worldwide...it's all over the world! It's a movement! …is what's happening with the Republican Party.
So, here's the story: you know, I’ve won many, many…it’s 15, 16 states. I think we're gonna have a great day tomorrow. Great day…–­THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. In fact, the one that's closest looks like you get out and vote! But, we're gonna have a great day. I think we're gonna have a phenomenal day. Florida's looking fantastic. Florida's…Florida's really looking…–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY.
Well…well, look, you have a senator that doesn't show up to vote. How would you like to have a senator…who doesn't show up to vote!? I mean, he doesn't come in. So, you can't have that either. But, Florida is looking really, really fantastic. And, you know, they have a little bit of the same…characteristic. You have…Rubio, he doesn't vote. That's real bad stuff. And your…governor is absentee! He goes…listen to this, cuz I know, cuz I was there! But I go back, and I still…work! You know, I have a job. Right? You gotta do your job!
So, your Governor, Kasich, if you look at him…and…and I'm chewing totally impartial. He goes to New Hampshire, he's living in New Hampshire! Living! Where's Chris? Is Chris around? Even more than Chris Christie he was there! Where is Chris!? …–MR. TRUMP LOOKS FOR MR. CHRIS CHRISTIE AROUND. Right!? Even more! I hated to do that, but I had to make my point!
So…so…but, he goes to New Hampshire, he lives there! He loses badly. He gets killed. I win in a landslide, okay? I win New Hampshire. I love…the people…of New Hampshire! They gave me my first big victory, and it was early on. Everybody wants to win Iowa. So, they can win New Hampshire. I won…New Hampshire.
Then we come…then we come…we go [to] South Carolina…[and] I'm not supposed to win that, because it's heavily, heavily evangelical. But I'm a great Christian! And I understand…evangelical! …–THE CROWD CHEERS. And evangelical is smart! And they don't want a…remember! Ted Cruz. I call him lyin Ted Cruz. He's lyin Ted!... –THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And he walks in with his nonsense. He walks in with that…you know, phony style. And he lifts the bible up high! And he said, “here I am! I'm lyin Ted Cruz!”. And he puts it back…bus and then he starts lying for the whole night! Any position you have, he knows what your position is! He tells people the opposite!
What he did to Ben Carson…who just endorsed me, by the way. Dr. Ben …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…[a] great guy.
But in Iowa, Ben was doing really well. And I was doing really well. And Ted Cruz said, Ben Carson had just quit the race! And the voting hadn't even come close to ending! And he convinced him! And then right after the race ended he called him and apologized. Give me a break! And, I don't think Ben has ever…forgotten that, or forgiven that, or whatever.
But Ben endorsed me two days ago. And that's a great endorsement. That, to me…; and you know who else endorsed me which I think you'll like? Sheriff Joe Arpaio. When…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–when Sheriff's Joe endorses you, that means you're tough on the borders. Believe me. Sheriff Joe.
So, we had Sheriff Joe, and he endorsed. And we had Sarah Palin who was so great! She endorsed! And Jerry Falwell Jr., from Liberty University, [he was] so great! And maybe Jerry, I think really helped me with evangelicals.
So, we go to South Carolina. And, that's going to be Ted Cruz country. That's lyin Ted Cruz country. And we go, and everybody says he's gonna win! And who wins in a landslide? Trump. And who gets the military…? …the vets? Cause when they're leaving, they do the polls!
I won with the military. I won with the vets. I won big with the evangelicals. I won big with everybody! I won with women! I won with men! …–THE CROWD CHEERS. I won with highly educated! I won with less than highly educated! We won with every single category: So, it's been great.
Same thing with Nevada. We go into Nevada, [and] I win with Nevada in a landslide. But the big thing is this: I go there…and I say hello to the people that work at the polling booths. And, a woman comes up to me in New Hampshire, and she said, “you know, Mr. Trump, I've been doing this for 40 years. And in 40 years, we used to have like three people come in, and then another three, four people; and it was just very light! With you, we have lines…”, and I looked at the lines. The lines were five blocks long! Five abreast, coming in to vote! We've taken in millions, and millions, and millions of people! Within the Republican Party. They came out from the Democrats. They came as the independents. And I'll tell you, the thing I'm most proud of is…and I see it when I sign, and when I shake hands with people! Every…20th person says to me, “you know, Mr. Trump, I'd never, ever voted before”. We're talking about 40 year-old…people! We're talking about 50 …you!? …–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD. Are you gonna vote!? And you never voted before!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Thank You, man! That's so cool!
But, who's never voted before and it’s voting? Wow! Wow! And you’re all voting, right!? I'm telling you! I'm telling you! They just said it on one of the stations coming in: it is a phenomena! It is…and it's phenomenal. But it is a phenomena.
We…so…many…people. They said, “I'd never wanted to vote because I've never seen anybody I wanted to vote for”, okay?
So, we have the Democrats…and we're up millions, and millions, and millions of votes. And you know, it's sort of interesting. I watched lyin Ted a little while ago. And he was saying, “I'm the only one…!”, you know with the…–MR. TRUMP SPINS HIS INDEX FINGER IN THE AIR-…you know, I always say, he's a good debater but he can't talk! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIDIMILY.
He says, “I'm the only one that can be Trump! I beat him…five times! I'm the only one!”. You know, it's like a professional debate artist. And yet I've won every debate! I don't understand it. But…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…no, according to Drudge, who’s an incredible guy. Drudge! They do the polls after the debates. Every single day…debate. Time Magazine! Drudge! All these different places. They do polls after the debate. I think I've won every single one for every single debate. Really! …­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But lyin Ted goes, “I've gotta tell you! I'm the only one that can stop Trump! Nobody else [can]! I beaten him five times! And then I said to myself, “is anyone gonna speak up?”: Nobody speaks up.
So, at the debate, do you remember? He said, “I’ve beaten up five times”. I said, “yeah, but I’ve I beaten you 15 times!”. Right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. Right!? I don’t know! He's lyin Ted! He’s lyin Ted.
So, look. [It’s] so important. We have…so many different problems. And I wanna read you something, cuz I love it. I love it. You know, we need security. We need borders. We're gonna build the wall! The wall is gonna be built! …­–­THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. The wall is gonna be built 100 percent…–THE CROWD STARTS CHANTING ‘BUILD THAT WALL’ AND MR. TRUMP CHANTS ALONG. [It’s] gonna be built!
And…and…who's gonna pay for the wall!? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘MEXICO!’. Mexico! A 100 percent. 100 percent!
We have a trade deficit with Mexico, folks. These guys come off the stage…they used to say, “you can't build a wall!”.
And then I said, “well, you know, the Great Wall of China…is 13,000 miles long, much bigger, and it was built 2,000 years ago. Why can't we build a world!?”.
“Well, I don't know! You can't build”.
And then the other day I hear these guys saying, “we're going to build the wall”.
And my wife heard it! She came up [and] she said, “I think they just said ‘we're gonna build a wall’”. Okay.
But here's the thing. Then they say, “you can't get Mexico to pay for the wall!”. Okay. So, remember this. This is easy. Anybody in the audience can do it, because almost everybody in the audience…is smarter…than the people…running…our country. Okay? So, remember…­–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…it’s true.
So, remember this. So, remember this: the wall is going to cost…10 billion dollars. A lot of money. We're gonna do a real wall. It's gonna be like it the OPO, the Old Post Office. I got it. [It’s] Under budget, ahead of schedule… [it’s] gonna be great, right? We wanna go…under budget…; you gotta know…I'm…the thing I do best, in all fairness, is build. Okay. So, we're gonna build it under budget, [and] ahead of schedule.
But, the wall’s gonna cost 10. And it's gonna be a…let's see that ceiling…–MR. TRUMP LOOKS UP TO THE CELING–…that looks pretty good, actually. That's you know…hey, that celling is up there! They don't build them like they used to, folks, right? It's pretty good! But it's gonna be right up there. It's probably gonna be higher than that, but it's gonna be right up. 45, 50 feet…good precast, [a] beautiful job.
So, here's the story. Here's the story. So they say, “you're never gonna be able to get Mexico to pay”.
I said, “a 100 percent”.
They said, “no way”. These are the people I'm running against! I'm arguing with them.
Here's the story: we have a trade deficit with Mexico, a year, 58 billion dollars. Right? The wall is gonna cost ten billion dollars. That's a peanut compared! You're gonna pay for the wall, folks! When you have…58 billion advantage…in trade, and you want ten billion to pay for the wall…;
Now, there's various ways they can do it, and I'm not pushy. I'm a very, very unpushy person. They're gonna pay for the wall so easy, okay? So easy.
You probably saw the other day Vincente Fox. Vincente Fox. The ex-president…–THE CROWD BOOS. And what did he do!? He threw out the f-bomb! If I threw out the f-bomb, I would get these people…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE CAMERAS–…I would get the electric chair, okay? They would say, “it's the electric chair!”. He threw out…nobody even talks about it!
But what he did is good. Because he said, “there's no way we're gonna pay for the you-know-what-wall”. Okay? Vincente. “There's no way!”, he said. And really angry, and arrogant. He said…; and I love Mexico! I love the people of Mexico! I have thousands of employees, and over the years…Hispanics! And I win in the polls with the Hispanics! You saw that in Nevada…I won with the Hispanics, in addition every other group. Because I'm gonna bring jobs back! I'm bringing the jobs back! …–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. I'm bringing back from China. I'm bringing her back from Mexico. I'm bringing jobs back.
So, Vincente Fox…Vincente Fox, the good in the bad…he said, “there's no way we're gonna pay for the you-know-what-wall”. And angry! And I said, we've made progress. Because he used to say ‘there's no way we're gonna build the wall!’. So, now we accept [that] it’s gonna be built. Right? He accepts that it's going to be built. That's good. That's good…–THE CROWD CHEERS.
 Now, we'll just make a little deal, and they're gonna pay…otherwise, we're gonna have a little problem. We're not gonna let so much trade…; don't forget, the 58 billion a year doesn't include all the drugs that are pouring across, and poisoning our youth, okay? And one thing…I…I told the people of New Hampshire, cause there was so good to me, and the victory was so conclusive. And it was my first victory as a politician! I've never done this before!
Some people give me credit. They said, “you know, it's amazing! This is a phenomena! And he's never done it before! He's only been doing it for eight months!”. But it's like common sense! And that's why we have these crowds! And that's why it's a movement! Cause it's a movement!
When I go to Dallas, 21,000 people. We just left…North Carolina, where I think we're gonna do great. We just left. We had a room that held two thousand people. It was set up quickly. It held two thousand people. They had between nine and ten thousand people outside listening, and that we had to send away! There's something going on. Okay. Okay.
So, here's the story: we are going to…do things that the country isn’t used to doing. It's called…we're going to win. Win. It's very simple. Win.
So, I wanna read you this, cause I love it. I don't know. Some of you may have heard it. I haven't done it much, but I…I love doing it. I love reading it. It was written by Al Wilson long time ago, and it was actually a song. And a little upgrade, maybe. We’ll do a little upgrade, but I think it's great.
So, we have a tremendous problem with terrorism. And, we have a tremendous problem where…and I don't know if you agree with me, but we cannot let people into our country that we don't know who they are, what they are doing, where they are…; they have paperwork…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We can't do it!
And we can build in Syria; we can build a safe zone, and we'll do that. And I wanna get Saudi Arabia, I wanna get Gulf states to pay. They have so much money that you wouldn't even believe it. And they're not paying. We're paying for everything. We always pay.
You know, people think we spend a lot on our military. We spend a lot taking care of all these rich countries, that don't reimburse us properly! South Korea! I love South Korea! I love Japan! But Japan, if we get attacked, Japan doesn't have to do anything. If Japan gets attacked, we just started World War III. We have to go in and defend them. What kind of deals are these that we make, folks!? So, we're gonna…don't worry, we're gonna make these good.
But, we talked about terror, and we talked about terrorism. And we talked about…remember this is…this is for what I'm gonna read. We talked about the wrong…people coming…into…our country, right? And we can't allow it! And I love you! Look at this crowd! I love you! I mean, it's amazing! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Okay! [Are] You ready? And it's called ‘the snake’. A snake, ugh! A snake! Right?
“On her way to work one morning,
down the path along the lake,
a tender-hearted woman saw a poor half-frozen snake!
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew,
‘Oh, well!’, she cried. I'll take you in, and I'll take care of you!
‘Take me in, oh, tender woman! Take me in, for heaven's sake! Take me in, oh tender woman!’, sighed the broken snake.
She wrapped him up all cozy, in a curvature of silk,
and then, laid him by the fireside, with honey and some milk.
Now she hurried home from work that night.
As soon as she arrived, she found that pretty snake she’d taken and revived.
‘Take me in, oh, tender woman; take me in, for heaven's sake; take me in, oh, tender woman’, sighed the broken snake.
Now she clutched him to her bosom, ‘you're so beautiful!’, she cried,
but if I hadn't brought you in by now, you might have died.
Now she stroked his pretty skin, and then she kissed him and held him tight.
But instead of saying ‘thank you!’, that snake gave her a vicious bite!
‘Take me in, oh, tender woman; take me in, for heaven's sake; take me in, oh, tender woman’, sighed the broken snake.
‘I saved you’, cried the woman; ‘and you've bitten me, heavens why? You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die!’,
‘Oh, shut up, silly woman!’, said the reptile with a grin.
‘You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in!’…
 
…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. Right!? Right!? …–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘U.S.A! REPEATEDLY. MR. TRUMP CHANTS ALONG.
So, we don't know what we're doing, folks. And we have to learn.
We're gonna make America great again. We're gonna do a few things and I'm gonna go over him quickly, but the main thing I want you to do tonight…! Go home! Go to sleep! Get a good rest! Go out tomorrow. You gotta beat Kasich. He's not gonna be a great president…–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. He's not gonna be strong. He's weak on the borders! Remember! When he was a congressman, he signed NAFTA! NAFTA destroyed Ohio! It destroyed Ohio! …–THE CROWD BOOS. And now he wants to sign TPP. That is going to be worse. I have studied it so carefully! That is gonna be worse for Ohio. It's going to take all of your car businesses out. It's going to take all of your other, but the car business is going to be destroyed by TPP, and he wants it. And nobody knows why he wants it, including himself. Maybe one of his lobbyists are demanding it. Maybe the special interest from the cars or something are demanding it. Maybe one of the other countries that are gonna benefit are demanding it. Who knows? It is absolutely crazy.
They don't even talk about monetary manipulation in the agreement. It's 6,000 pages long. It's 12 countries, at least. And here's what happens: we don't even have people to read these things! But those countries have read…every…single…word! They diagnosed at every single word! We're gonna be wrapped! If we're gonna make trade agreements, do nice, simple: bump! Bump! Bump! Do them with individual countries that deserve it! Don't do it with this whole mass group. And then you watch.
China? They're watching! They're not in the agreement now, but they're watching! And they will come in through the back door at a later date, and they will take it over. And they will continue to laugh at how stupid…our country…and how stupid our leaders are. But it won't happen if I'm the leader. It won't happen…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And remember the little…look, look. I love China. China's great. I love Mexico. It's all great. Their leaders are too smart for our leaders. Our leaders don't have a clue.
So, think of China. Think of China. Trade deficit: 500…billion…dollars! Then these stupid people say…and I'm a conservative! But, I'm a common-sense person. And I like to say I'm a common-sense conservative. Look, I'm very conservative on the military. I'm very conservative with the veterans. The veterans gonna be taken care of, folks. Okay? Really! …–THE CROWD CHEERS. Better than ever before. By a factor of 10th.
I'm very conservative on the border. Nobody…remember Sheriff Joe! Nobody is like me on the border. I'm very conservative on health care…! I'm conservative on…! Second Amendment, we're gonna keep our Second Amendment. We're not playing games…–THE CROWD CHEERS. Very, very…;
But when it comes to trade, I love free trade. See, a true conservative only wants free trade. And that's good if you have smart…people…negotiating for you. But we don't. We don't. We have the opposite. I'm trying to be nice. We have the opposite.
So, here's the story. Here's the story: we're gonna have great agreements. We're gonna have great agreements. We're not gonna have…agreements where…they're good for certain people. I'm self-funding my own campaign. I'm putting up my own…money…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
When that big plane…­­–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT HIS PLANE BEHIND HIM–…flies into Ohio, [do] you know it's paying for it? Trump is paying for it! Not a special interest…–THE CRWOD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I pay for it! And let me tell you, it's expensive! But I'm paying it! [It is/ was] Made in the USA! It’s called Boeing. [It is/ was] Made in the US…–THE CROWD CHEERS.
But look, but I'm paying for it. I'm self-funding. And, I don't know if I get credit for that. I've spent…you know, a lot of money in the campaign.
By the way, here's the beauty. Like…in New Hampshire. I spent two or two and a half million. I came in first in a landslide. Other people, one in particular, spent…I think it was 50 million, 58 million, [and] came in fifth or sixth. Who do you want as president!? I mean, when you think…–­THE CORWD BOOS. Wouldn't it be nice…? Wouldn't it be nice…? Seriously, if we could spend the least and get the best result. Wouldn’t that be nice? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I mean, in education, in the world, [from] 30 countries, the United States is number 30. But it's number one on cost. So…cost for pupil! So, we are number on costs…; and by the way, cost for pupil, not even close! We are so much higher than number two that we don't even talk about number two.
So, we’re number one on cost, and we’re the worst in terms of the education we produce. You have…Norway! Sweden! Denmark! China! Uh…some countries that you never even heard of before! And they're…they're ahead of us in education! So, we're gonna change it around, folks. We're gonna have strength. We're not gonna have…; and…and let me just tell you. Let me just tell you.
I don't know if I get credit for self-funding my campaign. But, these guys…you know, they're not stupid people! They’re not stupid. You ask, “how did they make a deal so stupid?”. They're not stupid! The lobby has told them to make it. They are totally controlled by their lobbyists, and by special interests.
So, when I tell Carrier, which just announced they're moving… “Carrier…guess what!? This is your president!”.
Now, this is not very presidential. My wife said, [in] the last debate…and Ivanka said [it]! [Did] Anybody ever hear of Ivanka? Yes…–THE CROWD CHEERS. They said, “dad you're doing great in the debates. But do me a favor. You really had…; act presidential tonight”.
I said, “what does that mean?”.
She said, “act presidential”. In other words, when they come at you with things, just stand there and…–MR. TRUMP GOES STILL AND SILENT–…act presidential…–THE CROWD BOOS TIMIDLY.
Now, let…let me tell you. And I told this to the press. I can be more presidential than any president the United States has ever had, except for Honest Abe Lincoln. He's tough with the top hat. I can't…; Honest Abe...I mean, he was seriously presidential. Honest Abe…I don't think I can beat Honest Abe. I've never said that before, that I can't beat somebody. I don't think I can act more presidential than Honest Abe.
Now, I said, “so, what does that mean?”.
“Well, that means [that] when they come at you, with the barbs and the…just”.
I said, “I can't do that”. But I did! In the last debate. I was proud of myself. I did. And I won that debate! I won that debate! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. According to the polls.
But, look. Look. So, they say “act presidential”. So, I'm gonna tell you. This isn’t presidential. Cause I'm not supposed to be doing that…; you're president of the United States…but you know what? I'm more interested in having jobs in this country that I am acting presidential, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Now, I have Carl Icahn…; I have some of the greatest business people in the world, and these…; we have the best…negotiators! We have the best business people! But I have Carl Icahn…I have great people. But this is too easy. I just wanna do it myself.
So, Carrier announced that they're…getting rid of 1,400 jobs. I buy Carrier air-conditioners. I buy Trane…I buy a lot of them! [I] Buy a lot of air-conditioners. I buy a lot of televisions! You know, from…they all come from South Korea! We don't make televisions anymore.
[It] Used to be we had Zenith; we had RCA; we had GE; we don't have anything anymore. They're all made over in South Korea. A little bit Sony, [but] not much. They've lost their way. But they're all made…over in South…; I order thousands and thousands of televisions. And I say, “can we buy them in the USA?”.
“We can’t”. So, it's pretty tough.
So, here's what happens with…with…uh…Carrier. They announced they're moving, and I'm not happy! Because…what do we get out of it!? They…laid off 1400 great, great workers that helped build that company. And they get it. And somebody had the cell phone going, and you see these people. They're crying, they devastated, they've had a great job…;
“We're moving to Mexico. I'm sorry. We're gonna close up. We're moving to Mexico!”.
So, here's what I do. I call up the head of Carrier, and I say, very nicely, with great respect. With great respect:
“Hello, this is Donald Trump, I'm the President of the United States, and I am not happy about what you're doing, moving Carrier out of this country”.
And he's gonna say, “Mr. president…”;
Now, remember this! If Hillary, who doesn't have this strength or the energy to be President, believe me! Believe me! …–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. If Hillary is president, her special interests will call her; her lobbyists will call her; her fundraisers will call her; and she knows it's a bad thing, but she won't do anything about it.
If…little Marco gets called, a hundred percent he'll do whatever his lobbyist tells him. He will skip to the beat. They'll say, “Marco! You can't do this, Marco! These guys supported you! They gave you five million dollars!”.
And you know he's gonna say? “You're right. I can't do that. Oh, it's okay”. Okay.
If lyin Ted gets good…? He's got lobbyists…! Don't forget, here's a guy that in his personal financial disclosure form…you know, he's gonna be Robin Hood. He's protecting everybody from the big, bad banks! Well, but he's got loans from big, bad banks! He forgot to put his loans, four million dollars. He forgot to put his loans…in its financial statements, in its disclosure forms that he gives to the government. [He] just forgot! He forgot. He forgot to say that the interest rate is so low, that you're practically not paying any interest. You would love would anybody like to have…lyin Ted interest rate? Hey! I’d take his interest rate if you wanna know the truth.
So, the truth is, they are totally controlled. 100 percent. And you can practically go to Washington, they'll tell you: “who's the lobbyist for…Rubio!?”.
And they’ll say, “oh, you could use this one, this one, this one”. They will produce. Here's the thing: with me? No lobbyists! I know the lobbyists. I've used the lobbyists. I've contributed to everybody! I put in the greatest personal financial statement in the history of the United States government. Almost a hundred pages. An unbelievable company. Tremendous cash flow; very little debt; or I wouldn't be running.
Can you imagine if that were bad? You would have heard from those guys…–MR .TRUMP POINTS AT THE CAMERAS. They were looking at that statement…! They are so upset how good it is…! I built a great, great company! They are devastated! They are so dishonest, disgusting…and they are devastated! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, here's the story. Here's a story. I…only because I want…I could give it to Carl Icahn, or one of the very great negotiators too, but this is too easy. I wanna do it myself. I love doing this stuff.
So, I'll call…Carrier. I'll get the president of the phone. They'll say, “the president the United States is on the phone for you, sir”.
“Oh, yes. Okay”.
“So, let me just tell you something, Mr. president of Carrier. Here's the story. You're ready?”. And this applies to Ford…; this applies to Nabisco, that's moving out from Chicago, and it's moving into Mexico…! and I'm not eating Oreos anymore…!
So, here's the story. Here's the story: I say…because it's just too easy, I have to do it myself. I know it's not presidential. I'm not supposed to be calling up air conditioner companies, right? But I'm gonna do it! So, here's the story: I'm gonna tell them, “congratulations on your move! I hope you build a beautiful facility. I wish you a lot of luck. Good luck with your employees. The 1400 people that were fired are all devastated, and they’re right now working part time jobs…”, because you can't get good jobs in this country, or because our good jobs are all gone, by the way. So, “good luck with you. I just wanna tell you one thing, though, before I hang up. Every air conditioning unit that is made by Carrier that crosses our now very strong border, is gonna be taxed at the rate of 35 percent per unit”, okay? All right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Every single one!
Now, with the other guys, you'll get one of the lobbyists, and they'll forget it.
And here's what he's gonna say, “Mr. president! Sir, Mr. president!”.
I’d say, “you’ve got 24 hours to call me. You'll let me know”.
I will get a call within 24 hours, and here's what's gonna say. A hundred percent. This isn't like…like 95 percent. This is 100 percent. I will get a call, and he'll say, “Mr. President, Carrier air-conditioner has decided to stay in the United States”, okay? A 100 percent.
And maybe they'll build a new plant. And maybe they'll build a new factory. And maybe they'll do lots of things. And I don't care where they build it as long as it's in our country, right!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. But they're staying!
And we're not gonna let these other countries manipulate their currencies! These countries are…manipulating their currencies…making it impossible for all of you to compete, and for your companies to compete! That's why you're closing up companies all over Ohio! That's why your steel industry as a disaster! I'll bring it back! That's why your coal industry in Ohio…is a disaster! I'm gonna bring your industry back!
You're gonna have clean coal! Whether you're in Kentucky, or West Virginia, or Ohio…; we're gonna go back! And we're gonna have we have technology now. And we're gonna have clean coal! Your coal industry is dead! Your steel industry is dead! Your governor is totally overrated! He hasn't done a thing! And without oil, you would be in worse shape than any other state in the Union! Believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY.
So…so, I'm gonna ask you…to get up tomorrow and vote. And I'll tell you, the bottom line. You are gonna be so happy. You're gonna remember this evening. And you're gonna remember tomorrow when you vote. And you're going to say, “it was the single…greatest…vote that you have ever cast”.
You're gonna be proud of your president. I'm you. I'm yo. You're gonna be proud of your president. You're gonna be so proud of your country. And we're gonna start winning again. We're gonna win with our military. We're gonna make it so good, so strong, that nobody's gonna play games with us. Nobody's gonna mess with us.
The…the vets, we’re gonna win with our vets. We're gonna finally take proper care of our vets. We're gonna win at the border. We're gonna win with the Second Amendment. We're gonna win with getting rid of Common Core and having great education! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna win with healthcare. We're gonna terminate Obamacare! We're gonna have something that's so much less expensive and so much better…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We are going to win, win, win! We're gonna win so much…! You are going to be so proud of your country again…!
I love you Ohio1 You can make the difference! You can make the difference! Tell your friends! Vote for Trump! I promise you, I am gonna do such a great job! You will look back two years from now, 10 years from now, 20 years from now…[and] you're gonna say, “that's the single, greatest vote I ever cast”.
We're bringing your business back. We're bringing your jobs back.
Thank you, Ohio. I love you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you, I love you!
