Hello everybody!
Thank you so much everybody! And, Sara, thank you very much. She is…is she great? How good is she? …–THE CROWD CHEERS. She's a special…; that’s a lot of people here! Thank you very much, Sarah…–THE CROWD CHEERS.
We landed, that snow was pouring in. It was so beautiful. In fact, I thought we were landing in Alaska. I was gonna tell Sara. We've got you home in Alaska! This is beautiful. And…and I wanna thank everybody. [It’s] such an incredible turnout.
We've had really amazing turnouts, and…we're doing so well, and we're so proud of it. And we love Wisconsin. It's a special place. And I think we're gonna do really well. I think we're gonna do really well…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Really well1 Look at these young people.
You know, something I said on the way up, and I was saying it before that…I'm self-funding my campaign. I'm putting up my own money. I don't know if it's worth it. I'll let you know in about a year from now, or less. But, I think it means a lot. And the reason is, all of these people that I'm running against, and that includes the Republicans, and the Democrats…they're not doing it the way I'm doing it.
When…Hillary gets money from…the oil industry and all the other industries; when Kasich gets money from the people, he's getting money, they totally control him, believe me. When…Cruz, lyin Ted, when he gets money…? …–THE CROWD AND MR. TRUMP LAUGHS. Believe me, lyin Ted! Bible! Bible! …–MR. TRUMP PRETENDS HE RAISES A BIBLE. THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. He lies! I never saw a guy lie I like him. I've met a lot tougher than him, but I've never seen anyone lie like lyin Ted. But you know…–THE CROWD MUTTERS.
But…uhm…when he when he gets money from the banks, and he gets money from oil and gas, and he gets money from everything, believe me, they have him, folks. They have him.
I get money…from me. I really am here for one reason, to represent you! To represent you! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Believe me.
And…it's…uh…it's so great. When I come to places, and I…I like the…the little thing in the round. I told my people. They said, “let's keep them smaller” because, you know, we had protesters, right?
So they said, “let's keep them smaller. This way we can check everybody that comes in”.
I said, “yeah, but I like the big! I like the big!”.
You know, we have 5,000…where's the mall here? Where's the mall? We have 5,000 people in the mall! So, I told my people, “enough with this stuff! Let them have protesters! Who cares, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. Who cares? We have 5,000 people on the other side of the wall! And I feel so guilty! We love you! Let's all say ‘we love you over there!’…–THE CROWD YELLS ‘WE LOVE YOU OVER THERE!’. But you wouldn't swap seats, I guarantee you that.
So…and I hope you could hear well back there. Can you hear well? …–THE CROWD CHEERS. Everybody…? Good. Thank you.
And can the mall hear well?. Let's see if we can hear…can the mall here well? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘YES!’. I think they can hear well. I hope they can! Anyway, this is amazing.
So, look. I'm doing this…to make America great again. That's our theme. All these hats. Look at all these hats but we're doing this…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we're doing this…to make…look at that guy. Stand up! Look at this guy! Do I look like that? …–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT A PERSON IN THE CROWD. Can you believe it? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Can you believe [it]? Look at that! All right. Well, I think it looks great. I like it! Good job.
But you know, it's a simple…it really it. It…is…it's a simple…beautiful…theme. Make…America…great…again. We have so many problems. We're doing so poorly, far worse than you understand. And in…Wisconsin, you know, I…know the numbers. The governor gave me a plaque a year ago, when he thought I liked him. And I do! He's a nice person! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. He’s a…–INAUDIBLE. He came up to my office. He gave me a plaque. I bet he wished he had that one to do over again, right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I think I have to show that plaque before I live, right? I keep saying, “no, no, let's not bring it”. I should have brought it for this group. But I'll do it somewhere before the time I leave. I'm gonna be here right till the end. We're gonna be here right till election. And I think it's gonna be an amazing couple of days.
And I can tell you: I think we're gonna win! I really do! I think we're gonna win…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I think…I think that people are gonna be surprised at how well I see the kind of outpouring we've had. And somebody else, I won't mention the name, was here not so long ago and they had 300 people. And we have 5,000 out there, and…what? Thousands in here. I don't know what it is, a couple of thousand at least.  So, I think we're gonna…it's more than 2,000 even, right? So, I think we're gonna win. And I think we're gonna win maybe substantially, but let's just see what happens.
But I know one thing. I know one thing. We're gonna do well. But the…you know, well doesn't mean anything, right? You know, Vince Lombardi, right…he…you…did you ever hear of a man named Vince Lombardi? Huh? In this neck of the woods, did you ever hear the great Vince Lombardi? So, you know what? You…okay, what did he say about winning? Right? …–SOMEBODY FROM THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE. Right! He…uh…knows. He's a…play…he’s a fan.
I met Vince Lombardi once. I mean, a number of times, but I met him once, and he was three…with three of his players. I was a very young guy. It was at a restaurant. And, these three players were tough, tough cookies. I’d better not mention their names. And two of them are friends of mine and they played for your team. And I'll tell you, they were great players. And Vince Lombardi was not a big guy. And he walked in and he was angry. And he was just so angry…! You could see. And he was…he came over to the table, and he saw these three big guys. They were like twice his size. They could have swatted him. And he looked at them…I won't tell you what he did, because he actually grabbed the one by the shirt, but I won't say that. See? Today you're not allowed to do that, right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. And then he left. He gave him a little bit of a…earful. And then he left!
And I wanna tell you: this big, strong friend of mine…he weighed like 250 then, which 250 then is big. That's like 310 now, right? This was a long time ago. And…he left! [He] Stormed out. And this guy was sitting here, shaking. And I said, “you know …”, I said to myself: the reason that…Vince was able…and I had a great respect for him as a coach, and…I love Bill Belichick. I like…there are certain people you have to respect these coaches…right? You have to respect. And I said it…at one of my other meetings: Tom Brady's a friend of mine. He thinks your quarterback is great, okay? Nice, right? [Do] You think he's great too? You think your quarterback is great, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Oh, Tom told me that, so I think that's a nice thing to say.
But Vince Lombardi, the reason he got away with it is winning! He won! If he didn't win, he couldn't get away with it. If he didn't win, he wouldn't be able to get that kind of almost fear! But respect. But fear from big, strong, powerful…players. But he won. By that time he had won many times. And…the respect that they had…for him was incredible.
Now, we don't win. The United States doesn't win anymore. We don't win a war. We can't beat ISIS. We don't win a trade, China is…cleaning our clock. Mexico, they laugh at us. They think we're all stupid, because our leaders do such…stupid things. Mexico, Japan, Vietnam, India…any nation! Name a nation! They do well. Name a nation, [it] doesn't make any difference. And they do well. And more and more I think about it, the more I realize. They do well for a very specific reason. Not that the politicians are so stupid, and many of them are, but many of them aren't. But because the politicians take tremendous campaign contributions…from people representing…certain other parts of the world, or certain companies that are involved in certain other parts of the world. And they do things that…are not in your best interests.
So when I say ‘I'm self-funding’, I don't take money. I have turned down more money…I'll bet that any human being has ever turned down for a political run. I mean, [it] has to be! Because frankly, everybody takes money! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And when you think of it, [it’s] not a big deal! Cuz everybody takes money! For years. Probably…I don't know, I may be wrong about this. I would…I would say the only one would be Ross Perot, right? Many years ago. That was a long time ago. But he didn't take money.
But, I have turned down so much…; people coming up, ten million dollars: “Donald, we wanna give you ten million for your campaign. We wanna give you 5 million. 2 million. 1 million”.
Jeb Bush raised a 148 eight million dollars, or so. I would have done that times five! And honestly, and I said [it] coming up! I don't know if I get credit for it, honestly. I don't know. Nobody's going and saying, “you know, I like Trump and I like Cruz”…uh…which is really not even a fair comparison, folks. I'm so much better…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Believe me. I will do so much better job…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I will do so much better…; Not…not…even close! But I will do so much better.
You know why! Cause…I'm working for you! They're not working for you. They talk about working for you, but they're not working for you! They're working for their next election. They're working for campaign contributions. Who knows what else they take, and I don't care. I mean, what's…[it’s] not my business, right? It's your business! But who knows what else they work for. But they're working at a minimum for campaign contributions.
And I say it all the time! People come up to me. “Our leaders are so stupid! Our politicians are so stupid! Why would they make deals like that? Why would they do this deal, or that deal?”. There was a deal recently, a company made this incredible deal, and the politicians approved it. And people say, “oh, our politicians are so stupid!”.
Well, they're not so stupid. Those people are represented by the smartest people you've ever seen: special interest groups, lobbyists…; I mean, some of these guys, they have like on their Cruz…it says ‘Cruz’, right on…–MR. TRUM SHOWS HIS FOREHEAD–…the lobbyist. It's tattooed. Right on their forehead.
“I can deal with Cruz!”. They raise a lot of money for him. And when they go in, they need a vote:
“No, I'm not gonna vote for that”.
“No, no, you have to! They gave you two…million… dollars for your campaign when nobody else would put up the money!”.
Hey, do I know the system better than anybody ever, in history? I mean, you know I was…I…on June 16th…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I only started this political stuff on June 16th. Before that…I mean, I was a very big contributor. It's a system! It's…it's…the system. It's not good, but…it's the system. It's what we have.
But you have guys with…it’s…it’s…plays in Hillary! It says ‘Hillary’ on the guy's forehead. They…they…it's like a branding iron, right? “You go to him [if] you want Hillary! You go to another guy if you want Kasich! You go to another guy if you want Cruz!”.
By the way, 100 percent! 100 percent! Now, they won't always get what they want. Maybe only 90 percent. You know, there's some things you can't do! But they get what they want a lot. They’re tremendous professionals. What they do is…they're very good at it.
So, when I'm self-funding, I hope people appreciate it, because…it means a lot! I mean it means a lot. It means…I don't know anybody anything! I don't owe them. I don't owe them! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…I said on the way up…you know, so far I've invested 35 million dollars, maybe 40. I don't know, something like that. My money! My money! And you know what? It…It…has no impact on me, which is lucky. I've built a great company!
By the way, you saw I filed. I built an amazing company. Tremendous cash flow; some of the greatest assets in the world…; uh…worth over ten billion dollars. And I started with really…just a very, very small loan. And built a great company! Some of the great, great assets; uh…uh…tremendously low debt. And the reason I tell you that is that's the kind of thinking we need in our country…to solve…many of our problems! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Many! Because folks, and they have all those cameras back there…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE CAMERAS–…we are right now sitting on a bubble that's gonna explode, and it's gonna be a real bad situation. And…we better get rid of the debt, and we better straighten ourselves out. Because we have debt, on debt, on debt…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…one of the things, we're gonna talk about a few of those things, because it affects you very much, and it…I know you have a lot of small business owners here, probably a couple of big business owners here. But, we have to get rid of it.
We're gonna start with Obamacare too. Obamacare is a killer for you, and for the country…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It's a killer! Obamacare…is…too expensive for the country to afford, and it doesn't work! By the way, for you it doesn't work! For anybody! You go 45, 55 percent increases this year. People are telling me they've never seen anything like it. It folds. It closes up. Obamacare, in the year 17 will close up. It can't make it. So, when you have it…just remember, it's no good anyway, but will terminate it far before that. And we will end up with a great, great health care plan that will cost you less money, and be much, much better…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I love these young kids…–MR. TRUMP POINTS BEHIND HIM–…they’re…look at these beautiful kids! They're going crazy. They're…they’re clapping about Obamacare…? They…they don't know what Obamacare is, but…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…hopefully, they won't need any health care for 40 years, okay? So, you know…but they're still very enthusiastic, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Great kids, great. They don't like Obamacare. Hopefully they don't have to worry. They don’t have to worry about healthcare. But ultimately, they do have to worry about the costs, because the cost is unbearable by the country. The kind of money that we're talking about is unbearable. Okay, so we start with that.
We're gonna bring Common Core. We're gonna end it. We're gonna bring education local…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…right?
We're gonna protect our Second Amendment. We're gonna do all the things that you've heard me saying, all of them! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But…but…but, here's what I wanted to talk to you about, because…we're gonna talk now big, big, big numbers, right!? When you have 19 trillion, fellows, we can't talk peanuts, right? We can't talk…like the little stuff. There's gonna be tremendous fraud, waste, abuse…; we’ll cut things that you won't even believe, okay? We're gonna save you Social Security as is. We're gonna cut all of the waste and all of the fraud. You don’t mind cutting the fraud out, right? There's plenty of it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We're gonna take care of your vets, and we're gonna build a military bigger, stronger better than ever before…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS AND THEN CHANTS ‘U.S.A!’. Beautiful. Great. That's it…isn't that great? When you see young people like that, that's so great. Oh, they're gonna be very successful. Don't forget, they’re after our jobs pretty soon. Hey, the problem is we're losing all our jobs! They have no choice! They have to take it away from us! That's all right. You'll treat us nicely though, right’ You'll treat us nicely…–MR. TRUMP TALKS TO THE KIDS BEHIND. That's the next Trump. Bigger and better than Trump. Not even a contest…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. All right. Good luck, kids. I…I…we think it's fantastic. What about the one in the middle? You're gonna be the most successful of them all ? Huh? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Beautiful. Great. Great job. That's what we love to see! That's what we're fighting for.
My daughter Ivanka just had a…beautiful…uh…beautiful son…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And…and ultimately, that's what we fight for. That, and…the grandchildren, and all that: We're gonna…and we're gonna turn this thing around. We're gonna turn around, you know, fast.
So, let's talk about a couple of things that are big dollars. So, we are the…police department for the entire world. And…the entire world, many of these places that we're taking care of, are very, very rich. We take care of…Saudi Arabia. They made a billion dollars a day, when the oil prices were up. Now they make a little less, okay. Big deal. They…­­–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD SAYS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE. MR. TRUMP ADDRESSES IT–…what? And the imports. He's right! He's right! You never know. Is that a protester? He's on our side…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. You're right, though! But, we take care of Saudi Arabia.
Now, nobody's gonna mess with Saudi Arabia because we're watching them. They're the richest…one of the richest. I mean, they have a fund that's so big…; nobody [that] has ever seen a fund like that, right? They have well pouring out of the ground. They have very high oil. Very high quality oil. Uh…they have very expensive oil, and they have very cheap oil to get. So they make nothing but money. If it weren't for us they wouldn't be there very long. And I do business with the Saudis, they're good people! They're fine! Everyone's fine! But, we're losing a fortune, okay? And if we had a person like me…? …like a fewer people in this room, maybe some? Not all, right? We have to know our strengths on our weaknesses, but you have some people in the room [that] would be a…do great job. You have other people that wouldn't do so good. They do like the people that we have right now. Nobody could do worse, that's the only thing I will say…–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY.
So, we're protecting Saudi Arabia. They're not paying us…a fair price! We're losing our shirt, okay? [Did] You know we have military bases that we pay rent on? Why? Why are we paying rent!? We're protecting…and we're renting land! We're paying…why are we paying rent? Why do we have any rent!?
But we…I’m…but I’m not even talking about rent. I'm talking…and there's…that's big numbers. But I'm talking about really big numbers!
So, Japan! [A] Great country. They make the cars, they sell them. You know, we have an imbalance with Japan like you wouldn't believe. Billions and billions of dollars. They sell us cars. We sell them practically nothing by comparison. They call it a trade imbalance. They're like up here, we’re down here…–MR. TRUMP USES HIS HANDS TO EXPLAIN. Okay? One of the great imbalances of all time.
I was in Los Angeles, I see these massive ships come in. It's like NASCAR. You know, by the way, the owner of NASCAR and a lot of the drivers they endorsed Trump. You know about that, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We love NASCAR! I love NASCAR! Brian France! The great Brian France. And…uh…they do a great job…–SOMEBODY FROM THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE. Thank you, man. They do a great job. But, uh…they endorsed. Brian came up, [and] he said, “I wanna endorse you for president”.
I said, “boy, that's cool!”. And he did it like in North Carolina. [A] Good place to endorse, right? North or South. And it wouldn't be bad up here either, but…we have it. And we have so many. Not only Sarah. We have Jerry Falwell Jr., from Liberty University. We have…uh…Joe, from Arizona. Sheriff Joe. How about Sheriff Joe? Okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Chris Christie’s…been…fantastic. He's been great. We have dr. Ben Carson who has been amazing…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…[he’s] been amazing. What a great guy! And we have so many others. So, congressman now…Senator Jeff Sessions, one of the most…respected…people in the United States Senate, who Cruz thought he had! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. Cruz kept talking about ‘Session, Session’. And you know, he'd say, “Session, senator Sessions!”. And then, senator Sessions announced, about two months ago, [that] he's endorsing Trump, and all of a sudden…Cruz doesn't talk about him so much anymore, I guess…–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY. ANOTHER PERSON. But look…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘LYIN TED!’. MR TRUMP GIGGLES–…look at this, even the young kids with that. But…but…so, a lot of things are gonna happen.
So, one thing we're gonna do is…the military. So, we're like the policemen to the world, right? And, that's fine. That's fine. And…everything's good. But these are really, really…wealthy…countries! Not necessary powerful, because we protect them! And there's okay that…we protect. They gotta pay us, folks! And you know what? When they start paying us, and then we do good trade deals, and then we do…this country's already…turned around! It's turned around! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Because we're talking big, big dollars!
And lyin Ted can't do it! He can't…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. In all fairness. Number one, they're gonna find out he's a liar, [and] they're not gonna trust him, okay? But he can't do…; you know, the evangelicals, they're with me! The evangelicals…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [Do you] Remember? South Carolina. That was going to be Ted! Lyin Ted was gonna win that one easy! Because the evangelical…I I think it's 68 percent evangelical, right? I think you, guys, are only 28 percent. Let's get going. Start gonna church a little bit more…–THE CROWD lLAUGHS. Go to church! There's the ones I wanna get going…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE YOUNG KIDS. Go…do you go to church on Sundays? Anytime you can go. Do you go to church? Okay. Good.
But 68 percent evangelical. So, he was gonna win. I won in a landslide. We won North…we won everything! I mean, we've won so much. In fact, just to show you. So Ted…during one of the debates, did you see it? “I'm the only one that can beat Donald Trump! I've done it many times! I’ve beaten him…!?” …like five times, six times? What the…? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. “I’ve beaten him five times!”. And he's screaming at the top of his lungs. You know, he wish he had the Bible in his hand, but he didn't happen to have one for the debate…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. But he…picks up the Bible, puts it down and then he lies .
But he said, “I’ve beat him six times!”.
So everyone's saying, “oh, wow, that's great!”.
And then I looked at him, and said, “yeah, but I beaten you 22 times”. And you remember the face? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It’s true! I’ve beaten you 22 times! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I think…I think we have like 21 or 22 states already. But this is an important one.
By the way, you gotta do me a favor, folks. You gotta vote. I will do such a good job for you…! Do yourselves a favor, don't do me a…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You're probably doing me a favor if you don't vote for me! I'll go home, I’ll relax, I’ll…; so many people have asked me the question.
This morning I was interviewed by a very good radio guy. Not the…whack job that interviewed me…his name is Sykes. And a couple of them. Oh, he's the worst…–THE CROWD BOOS TIMIDLY. You know, it’s true that [it] was actually a good interview, but he only plays one little sentence…half a sentence. You know, listen to the whole interview. Everybody that listened to that show would vote for me, believe me.
And, most people would say, “oh, let's hang up now”. Don't hang up. You take on the enemy. You take him on. You absolutely take him on. But remember…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But…but, he's not a very talented guy. He’s not a very smart guy, but…the guy that interviewed me today was a smart cookie. [A Radio] host. [A] Big one. And…national. And…he interviews me, and at the end he said…you know, we're on the phone, it's early Saturday morning. And I said, just before I left for here, I said, “thank you very much”.
He said, “Mr. Trump, can I ask you one final question?”.
“What?”.
“You're worth a fortune. You have a beautiful family. You can do anything you want. Why are you doing this? Why would you do this?”. And…that question has been asked to me more than any other question other than student debt. When I'm around the students, I get tremendous…you know, they're choked up to here…­–MR. TRUMP SHOWS HIS NECK–…and then they graduate, [and] they can't get a job. Real…I mean, it’s a serious problem. But that question gets asked to me so much. And I said, “you know what? I've been…so lucky in this country. I've done so well. I've made so much money, and…had such success and enjoyed my life. And I have…some, hopefully some really good years left, and I wanna give back to the country! I just wanna give something back! That's all it is!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It’s all it is…–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Thank you. And you know, our theme, make America great again, folks, we're gonna make it so great.
But here's…what I want to explain. We always have a problem. It's a problem in translation, because the press…is so totally dishonest. I mean, you have no idea…–THE CROWD MUTTERS. No, no. You have no idea. It's amazing how smart the people are! They…they understand…; he’s saying. You got that right…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD.  Look, look the people get it! They are really, really dishonest. They'll put like 1/10 of a sentence in; they'll cut you off…; and worse are cameras!
You know, I always used to say, “I love doing…television”. Because if you do television, it's done. Well, then they show…like a tiny piece of a clip. It's almost worse than the way they write. But the press is very dishonest. So, let me just tell you what happened:
So, you know, NAFTA has been a total disaster, right? Uh… it's drained businesses. Well, now we have a new one called TPP: trans-pacific partnership. It is so bad [that] it's worse than NAFCA. It will…it's worse of NAFTA. It will drain…Wisconsin. It will drain…the United States. We're doing it with various countries, all put together. A 7,000 page document that I almost guarantee you, nobody in our country has ever read. And those countries…from Asia, mostly, are all…every word is…like studied, and analyzed! And we just signed it.
First of all, we shouldn't sign with 12 countries. We should sign one, two, three, four…; and we…we reward the good countries! This way the bad countries come in and they take advantage of the good countries! It's too complicated. It's a stupid deal. Ted Cruz is totally in favor of it, because people want him to be in favor of it.
Kasich who voted for NAFTA, is in favor of it because people say, “you're gonna vote for that deal. You're in favor of it!”, because they support him and he has no choice. And that deal is a horrible deal! And you have liberals that want it, and you have conservatives, and then you have plenty of people in congress that don't want it, okay? But those are the ones that are being honest. And the biggest single point of the deal is…monetary manipulation. Devaluation of the currency. And that's how…China, and many other countries take the most advantage of it; is devaluation, of their currency. They…kill…us.
This year we're gonna have a 500…billion…dollar trade deficit with China. Then somebody will say…so, look: I’m…I'm…really a good businessman. I'm so good at business, oh! You people are gonna be so rich so fast! You don't even know…! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You don't know how rich you're gonna be. You're gonna go from a debtor nation, and it's gonna bing!. You're gonna say, “wow, what happened?”.
But, look. Look. You have Ted Cruz that refused…to approve…any language on devaluation! Any language…on monetary…manipulation. That's where they beat us, folks! They devalue their currencies so much…! And then we see our dollar holding, and going up. They want our dollar to go up. It sounds good, but in the meantime Komatsu is killing Caterpillar; in the meantime…China, look what they're doing, they're draining our businesses. Look at what's going on. And look at what's going on with Mexico. Mexico is taking our business, not only for devaluation, for a lot of other reasons.  The biggest is that our politicians don't know what the hell they're doing, or…contributions, okay?
So look, look. We are gonna change things, and that's big money. Those are trade deals. I have Carl Icahn, [a] great, great businessman. We have the greatest business people in the world in this country. We don't use them! We use political hacks! Third-rate political slobs…to negotiate with the smartest people in China! The smartest people in…Japan! They…and we have all the cards, people don't realize it! Without our money, without this big pot of money that's being drained out of your pocket…;
And by the way, just…I have to do this because I just feel I have to. I wanna read you some statistics. And you know, you're gonna say, “oh”. Well, you’re gonna know about it!
So, what am I talking about? 20 percent of the manufacturing jobs have left since…2000. [Do] You know where that is? Wisconsin. According to The…uh…Journal, The Journal Sentinel Wisconsin chronically lags…now, look at this…–MR. TRUMP SHOWS THE PAPER HE’S READING FROM–…Wisconsin chronically lags the rest of the United States in job creation. That's not what you hear!
Here's what happened with Scott Walker. And I can only say this because…I couldn't ask for his endorsement! I mean, what I did to that poor guy…! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. Man…! No, what I did to him…!  …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And he's a nice person, but who cares!? I don't care if he's nice! I wanna…make that country rich and good again. Okay.
…chronically lags the rest of the United States. So, [do you] remember when Scott announced? “I'm running for president”. And I don’t know, he was standing on a motorcycle or something. He doesn't look like the bikers that are supporting me.
I gotta tell you. Every time I go [to] some places, bikers [are] all over the place. The bikers love me! Uh…[are there] any bikers in here!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Right? The bikers love me! And I've always liked the limousine. I've never quite gotten it, but that's okay…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Maybe I don't have the guts to ride those bikes. But you know what? They're great people!
I was at, I think, Hilton had…[or] one of the places, and…we had hundreds! We had…close to…probably close to a thousand bikes. I said, “what's going on over here!?”. In fact, I was a little bit concerned actually…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS. They’re tough cookies. And they're out there waiting for hours. [I was] Making a speech to a group, a great group. I won the state big. It was incredible. But they were…uh…it had to be a thousand bikes, mostly Harley's, in all fairness. We love Harley. I love Harley, right? But…–THE CROWD CHEERS.
And I buy Wausau windows! Does anybody know Wausau? Wausau, Wisconsin, right? …–THE CRWOD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. One of the great windows of the world. You know, I'm really good at that stuff. I'm building on…uh…Pennsylvania Avenue, the big hotel. I got it! Everybody wanted it. I got it in the Obama administration. We're building one of the great hotels of the world. It's…on time, [and] under budget. In fact…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…in fact, it's way ahead of schedule, and it's under budget. So you don't hear that too often. [Do] You ever hear these projects that we have in this country? Yes, that's a 3,000 percent…cost overrun. 3,000 percent! Do you think those people building and make it a couple of bucks, folks? [Do you] Think they are making a couple of dollars?
But Wausau windows, I did 40 Wall Street using Wausau windows. [It’s a] Great company. Say ‘hello’ to Warsaw windows for me, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Say ‘hello’. It's [a] great window. One of…actually, truthfully it's one of the best windows made anywhere in the world . So, it's good. Wausau…; I saw ‘Wausaw’. I said, “oh, wait. I wonder, that's probably where they make the windows”, cause I order a lot of them and they come.
But we did a whole building…uh…40 Wall Street, a big, 72-story building…using, I think, 3,500 Warsaw windows. That's a lot of windows, right!? …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. Anyway…; and there are no leaks! We have no leaks! Explain to them [that] they have no leaks, so that's good. I should say they leak like hell and get a refund, right!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I do that too, sometimes. So, anyway! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDL.Y
So, we…have to make our country so strong. And, the way we do it is with the big stuff and…but, when you look at your area…Wisconsin has to keep wages depressed…in order to hold jobs. That's because of foreign competition. That's good, that's fine. It's no good for you! Do you know, the people, blue-collar people, great people in this country, they haven't had an effective wage increase in 20 years, okay? And then people wonder why I have a room filled like this. And you have another candidate that just left here, you know that, they had like 300 people.
But why do we have a room with thousands of people, and thousands of people outside…listening to a…speaker? Because people are angry, and they're disgusted at what's going on! So, we have thousands…right now, we have people all over this country that are working hard, and a lot of people are getting part-time jobs! They never had a part-time job in their life! But because of Ocab…Obamacare, it makes sense for the company make everything part-time! For reporting requirements. So you can't do it. It's terrible .
Then job growth is coming from, largely from the health care…jobs, and new jobs, which are very, very low paying jobs, about five hundred and twenty five dollars a week. That's that good. Then wages and manufacturing is stalled. Oh, man that's terrible! I just got this. Wages in manufacturing is stalled; low wage…we’re like a low wage nation, in Wisconsin! Okay!?
And I've heard this: household income…has had a major decline. This is Wisconsin! By the way, this is largely…the country, just so you understand. Large, large decline in household income. And that took place since the year 2000. So, since the year 2000, you've had a decline!
Now, and…and Wisconsin is just in the middle of the pack. So, and I only say that because you have a governor that endorsed them! And the people like the governor, so do I! So he gave me a plaque. I think I gave him 50 or 100,000 dollars. [Do] You know why? Cuz he was a fighter. You know, he's fighting, fighting, fighting…! And I said, “Uh, give him some money”. He called me up. What the hell difference does it make? …­–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. If I didn't run against him…!
Here's the case: I think I gave him 50 or 100,000, and he ran. Now, let's say I didn't run against him, okay? And let’s say I wanted something in Wisconsin, and I called him up, “governor, how [are] you doing, governor? [Do you] Remember me? I gave you 100,000 a couple of years ago, when you called. You…listen, just out of curiosity, I wanna build something in Wisconsin”.
Do you think he’d…be happy about it? I think so, right? But that's the way. I mean, I don't…know if it's good, I don't know if it's bad…! But, believe me, it's wrong. Because it's wrong for the people. That's why when you see, people haven't had an increase in wages…countrywide! …nationwide! …the blue collars! They have it.
Now, Wall Street's doing fine. I know the Wall Street guys…so well. Many of them, I don't like it all, okay? They have carried interest provisions; they have provisions that nobody in this room even understands or wants to understand! I understand them! We're gonna end it, folks. We're gonna end it. Because they're doing well! I'm doing well! I'm doing well! I don't wanna do that well! You know, I don't really wanna do that well! It doesn't matter!
Somebody said, “oh, well what would you do? Would you run your business?”; somebody said, “would you run your business and be president at the same time?”. Are you kidding me!? No matter how good a business…; what this is, this is an opportunity…that is so all…inspiring, to be president of the United States, to make our country so strong again…! Cause we have to make it strong. We have to make it rich.
A woman said to me, “Mr. Trump, I love you. I'm gonna vote for you. You're great. But please, don't say you're gonna make our country rich again. It doesn't sound good”.
I said, “you're right, but I have to say it!”. Because if I'm not gonna make the country rich again, you're gonna start…having your Social Security cut by Cruz and by Kasich. You're gonna have…lots of problems with your Medicare. I'm giving you a huge tax decrease, by far the biggest!
You know, coming up Sarah said she heard a great ad! And it was an ad that I…put on. And I don't do that much ad! You know, that's why I'm at 35. I spent 35 or 40…million dollars. And other guys have spent 150! I mean, Jeb had 148 million! I'm number one! …–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘LOW-ENERGY’. MR. TRUMP GIGGLES–…will anybody ever forgive me for that term? That term is a killer! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. There’s…there's a lot of terms I made up. Isn’t that…nice!? I've had…17. I'm down now to the two ‘leftovers’. Think of it! I've had 17. 17 people…! And now we're down to two. Isn't it nice when you think of it? Wouldn't it be nice? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.[MGF1]  And…and, we're leading big with the two! I mean, we'll see how it all turns out. Who knows, you know? Who knows.
But Wisconsin is very important, because if I can win Wisconsin, you people are gonna have low taxes, you're gonna have jobs; we're gonna bring jobs back! You're gonna have your pick of jobs, you're not gonna just take a job cause you have no choice. You're gonna bring jobs back into this country! We're not gonna have places moving to Mexico like Nabisco! …and Ford! And all these places, they move into Mexico!
You saw Carrier air-conditioners two months ago. They're moving into Mexico. They're not gonna happen. You're not gonna have Pfizer moving to Ireland. I'm telling you, our companies are all leaving! And they're leaving cause taxes are so high, and environment isn't good, and regulations will…knock out the regulations. Cause a lot of you, people…who's troubled by the regulations in this country? Right? It's terrible! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I have friends that are farmers, they can't even farm their land! The regulations…they spend more in regulation than they do in like…uh…had to…had to shovel it out of the ground! So we're gonna end all that. We're gonna end all that. But it's so important. So, here's the thing: we've gotta go out, we've gotta vote.
Let me give you one other…item, because I think it's so, so important. So, I've been criticized, did you hear today, where they're saying ‘nuclear’?
Now, I've been a businessman. And I've had a lot of common sense. I've made a lot of money. [I’ve] made lot of money against China. Tremendous deals against China. They can be beaten, folks! They can be beaten! I'm talking on trade. They can be beaten. They're fine! I like China. I love the people. They can't believe what they get away with!
Do you know? The richest people in China, friends of mine, they say, “Donald, we can't believe what we get away with!”. Now, they said that before they knew I was running for president, in all fairness…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. Now they said, “I never said that!”. But they said it. They can't believe it.
But I'll tell you: big league. They said today, coming up, I'm watching television and I'm saying, “wow, isn't that terrible?”. They were talking about nuclear and my statement: “Japan should have nuclear!”, that's what I said, supposedly. I didn't say that!
The question was asked to me on television, recently, by a very good announcer, [a] very good guy. He said, “what about…what about NATO?”, right?
Now, in all fairness, I've been a…an entrepreneur, [a] really good entrepreneur. But for a long time. I…nobody ever talked to me about NATO! Nobody had…ever talked to me about many of the things we talk about now. But, I know something about NATO! And I have a lot of common sense. I said, “here's the problem with NATO: it's obsolete…”, [a] big statement to make when you don't know that much about it, but I learn quickly. But I knew it was true! It's 68 years old! It was formed…to look over the Soviet Union, which doesn't even exist anymore! And I know what happens, he gets big and bureaucratic. I said, “it's obsolete and we pay too much money”.
Now, when I made the segment, I thought I read it somewhere, but when I made the statement it was really a statement that a lot of people said like…how would you know a thing like that? So, it turns out that it's even worse than anybody would have thought. We are paying so much money! [There are] 28 countries. We're spending so much money disproportionately, the United States, which is you, all of us. We're not talking about small money, folks. We're talking about serious, serious money, okay?
We're…not only taking care of Germany; we're not only taking care of Japan…this, that, that, and so many…; but NATO, many countries…and they're not paying their bills! And why should they? Cause nobody asks them to pay! Nobody's gonna…I'm gonna say, “pay up! You gotta pay up”.
One of the early things I'm gonna do, with…and I'll do it nicely, I promise. I'll be nice. I'll be presidential…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. I'm gonna be as presidential as I can be, and at the same time get the money, okay? You know, if you’re too presidential…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. If you're to presidential, you won't get the money, okay?
You'll say, “hello…”, to…one of the countries. I won't use names. One of the countries that owes us…forget it. “Would it be possible…to…pay…the money that you owe?”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
“No, we can't do that”.
“Oh, that's okay. Whenever you get a chance”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS VIVIDLY.
No. No…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. I'm like a really smart person. I could be the most presidential…president…I could be…; I’d be boring, but that's okay![MGF2] 
But, look: we're gonna get these countries to pay, and not only to pay! Not only to pay, but to pay all the money they owe us for many years! We've been carrying these…countries. Many of them are rich countries. Some aren't. But many of them have the money to pay. And…then you say to yourself, “what are we getting out of it?”.
Now, you look at the Ukraine. I have friends in the Ukraine. It…it's great. They're great people! But we're always the ones fighting for the Ukraine. You never hear Germany and these other countries that surround…! You know, you have countries they surround the Ukraine! Did you ever hear them complaining!? …–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘NO’. They don't complain! We wanna get in World War III. You know, we're gonna fight over the Ukraine. And you have the people that are the neighbors…I don't think they care. Or…they don't care much.
But here's the thing: when I talk about armament, and when I talk about protection, and when I talk about the military, all of these countries…which is much of the world, that we're taking care of, they have to pay! And, I don't wanna be…like…a greedy person, but we're losing a fortune everywhere!
We take care of South Korea. We have 28,000 soldiers on the line between North and South, the maniac! We have 28,000 soldiers on the line. [AT THIS POINT, 00.49.36, THE AUDIO AND VIDEO BREAK UNTIL 00.49.57] …you States…as stupid, stupid people, with even dumber leaders. We gotta stop it! We've gotta stop it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, Japan is a very big, [and a] very rich country, right? And…we take care of…Japan, and…Ger…Germany. I mean, with the Mercedes, and that this, and that…they're fantastic. It's a juggernaut. It's a phenomenal…powerful, rich country. [A] Very rich country! And Saudi Arabia I told you. Okay. Look.
So, here's the story look. These people have to pay for our services! And what I said about…Japan is this: we're protecting Japan, from many countries! But we're protecting from…Japan from North Korea! And, “he's always talking about Japan, Japan, Japan…!”. We protect them. We get a tiny…fraction of what…we should be getting. But we're protecting Japan. So I said something to the effect that I would see Japan with great respect! I get along great with Japanese. I have Japanese friends, they’re great people! With great respect!
You know, believe it or not I'm a unifier. Nobody's gonna think that. You will in four years. You'll say, “that guy that turned out to be a great unifier”. Maybe eight years would even be better, okay? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. But you start saying it in two years! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You’ll start saying it in two years, believe me. You'll see a big difference. Cause right now we are a great divide. Right now we have a man who's a great divider as our president, okay? He's a great divider…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS AND CHEERS TIMIODLY.
So, I would say to Japan, “you gotta help us out! We wanna help you”. And I would rather have them not armed. But, I'm not gonna continue to lose…this tremendous amount of money! And frankly, the case could be made that let them protect themselves against North Korea! They'd probably wipe them out pretty quick! And if they fight, you know what? There will be a terrible thing. Terrible. Good luck, folks. Enjoy yourself. If they fight, that would be terrible, right?
But, if they do, they do but! We can't be the policemen to the world and have 19 trillion in debt going up to 21 trillion dollars! And we're sitting on a bubble, and it's gonna explode, and we're gonna all end up…you know where. Okay? [We] Can't do it.
So, I said…I think very intelligently…cause what did happen is after I made my statements about NATO, the next day you saw it, last week! “Donald Trump…wants to…disband the NATO…! He wants…!”. I mean, right? Look, she smiles! Isn't it true!? Like I'm some kind of a dopey guy! I’m really smart! Really, really, really smart! I know what I'm doing! I know what I'm doing! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Now, there will be a point with some of these countries, where we're gonna walk! And we won't be gone for long, because they're gonna call them and say, “come back!”. Now, I would much rather protect Japan, because I don't like them army. But you know what? It's possible that they will. And let them take care of themselves here. But, probably more likely, they'll pay us a lot more money. And we won't be losing…all of the vast billions, and billions, and billions of dollars that we're losing right now.
Just take a look at NATO. I was so right. And now people, these great ex…experts…they've studied NATO for 30 years! And now they're saying, “that was a brilliant suggestion!”. One guy was saying, “wow!”. Here's a guy [that has been] studying NATO, and he never thought of it! He said, “you know, it is obsolete! And we do pay too much!”. They don't even think of it, cause I have a natural instinct for this.
By the way, United Nations…   same things, smaller numbers. United Nations…believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Many other things. Many other things.
Where do you ever see the United Nations…? I love the United Nation, in New York! They're wonderful! Did they ever settle anything!? It's just like a political gang! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. The United Nations…we pay for a vast…I mean, we…the money we spend on the United Nations…;
I'll tell you a story. So, years ago, four or five years ago, I was called before the United States Senate. They wanted to do…and it was senator Sessions, interestingly, but it was a large group of senators. And they were doing a study on the United Nations buildings. They were doing a renovation. So, the ambassador to Sweden at the time…I believe it was Sweden, called me. And I built a building across the street. 92-stories for about 360 million dollars. Right across from the United Nations. And he called me and he was very nice.
He said, “Mr. Trump…”. I mean…there's a good…man, because he said, “Mr. Trump, I heard you spent 360 million dollars on the building across the street. And that buildings 92-stories and the United Nations is one-third that height. And we're gonna spend…a billion and a half dollars on renovating our building”. He said, “could I ask you a question? Why?”.
I said, “two reason: number one is…they're crooked. And number two is lack of knowledge”.
He said, “could I call you to the United Nations?”.
“Yes”.
I went to the United Nations. I met with Kofi Annan, and I told him, “I will do the whole job for 700 million dollars”.
They said, “yeah but it won't be the same job”.
I said, “you're right. It'll be much better”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. No, it's true! “It'll be much better” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I explained to him. I said, “I’ll use marble, and you'll use…linoleum”, okay? I said, “it'll be a much better. It'll be 100 percent better”. Anyway! Bottom line. I took pictures with this guy, you know, everything, and…and I never heard from him again.
Then the United States Senate called me…uh…before they started. And they said, “how come you can do it for…?”, and really, the number was 500 in my own head…but five to seven hundred million dollars, “why can you do that, and it's gonna cost them a billion and half?”.
I said, “it's not gonna cost them a billion and a half. They say it's gonna cost them a billion and a half. It's gonna cost them three billion! And maybe more than that”.
And they said, “what do you mean?”.
I said, “that's what's gonna cost”. That was years ago. [It] Cost them…much more than even what I said. It was one of the great…messes that you've ever seen. And I asked the hit man in charge of construction, my first meeting. I said, “so let me ask you. Are you gonna use New York steam?”. That's a very…complex system of steam…it…under the streets of New York.
“What's that?”.
I said, “wait a minute, you're in charge of the building [and] you don't want know what you…? Are you gonna use a boiler system? Are you gonna use a four pipe system? A five pipe system? Or two pipe system?”. He had no idea what I was talking about. I said, “how can you be in charge of a massive construction problem when you don't know what a five pipe, and a four pipe, and a two pipe system is? How can it be possible?”. But then I realized! This guy made a fortune, I'm sure. I'm sure the guy made a fortune.
So, here's the story. We're gonna…rebuild our country. We need roads. We need bridges. You know, our bridges are falling down. We're gonna save so much money on waste, fraud, and abuse. We're gonna save so much…! You're gonna go out, and vote, but you're gonna be so proud…of what took place today; and you're gonna be even more proud of what's gonna take place on Tuesday! And a lot of people, they say…you know, these politicians, they get up…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY–…no, no, but you know that. You're gonna be very proud…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, a lot of these politicians…a lot of these politicians they get up and they say, “you're Americans. You're great, great people of our country. It doesn't matter whether you vote for me, or whether you vote for…my opponent. What's important is to get out and vote”.
I don't say that. I say, “if you're gonna vote for me, go vote. If you're gonna vote for my opponent, don't bother”, okay? All right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS, CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Don't bother. Don’t bother! [MGF3] 
But, you know, I…I do laugh though, because…I understand nature. I'm like a purchase…you know, I just…I appreciate life. And, we're all angry, but we're…good people. And we're not…really angry people, but we're angry about the way our country is being run. We love our country. It's being run by idiots. We have…they have no idea what they're doing.
And just to finish on the nuclear thing, I told you I was gonna go in and negotiate with Japan, and negotiate with Germany, and negotiate…; I have the best negotiators in the world. Carl Icahn endorsed me. I have many of the people that wanna come in. They wanna help us! And these are the greatest minds, and the greatest businesspeople. And the greatest, period, negotiators. They all read The Art of the Deal, okay?
So, I say to myself, “look at this! Look at these people, and look at this negotiation. What's gonna happen? What's gonna happen?”. And I'll tell you what's gonna happen: our country, if we don't do this deal, if we don't get the proper people in office, and we don't get them in office…soon, we're not gonna have a country left, I'm telling you! We're not gonna have a country left…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [It is] Just not gonna happen!
And I'm a person with common sense. And…and I used to tell you! Okay!
[Do you] Remember the beginning of the campaign!? Bush! And Rubio! They're nice guys. They're both nice guys, okay? Everyone's nice after you've won. But…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…but…but let me just tell you. [MGF4] 
[Do you] Remember when…Marco would never run because Bush was his mentor. Did anyone ever hear that? So, Marco was never gonna run. And then he did run. And then I kept saying, “they hate each other”.
And everyone said, “no, they don't! They're good friends”.
And Bush would stand up and said, “Marco as my dear, dear friend”. And then Marco would stand up, “Jeb is my dear, dear friend”.ç
And I'd say, “they hate each other!”. [Do you] Remember at the debate? Jeb would say, “I'd like to…congratulate Marco. He's my dear, dear friend”. And he'd say also, “and Donald Trump is a gifted politician”.
My wife actually said, “why does he keep calling you a gifted, gifted politician?”. He said it twice sometimes: “Donald Trump is a gifted, gifted politician, if he's your enemy”.
I said, “I don't wanna give you the answer to that”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I don't wanna give you the answer. Not on live television. I don't want to.
But look, I understand what's going on. I will do such a great job. We will cut our expenses. We will build up our numbers. We will become rich. We will become strong. We will become great again. We will become…so great. We will start winning again. We don't win anymore! We don't win at war, we can't beat ISIS. We don't win with our great veterans. We can't take care of them. We don't know how. It's a corrupt system. The whole VA is corrupt. We're gonna take care of our veterans…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We're gonna win with trade so big! We're gonna have money pouring back in. We're gonna have jobs pouring back into our country, folks. There's not gonna be anybody saying, “Donald, please don't do that please. Don't do that. These are clients, they represent me, please”.
I’d say, “that's okay. They can represent you. Lots of luck. They don't represent me. They gave me nothing”.
So, we're gonna have…great things happen with trade with China, with Mexico, with all of these. We're going to have a strong border…on the southern side. That border’s gonna be so strong. You know…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we're gonna build a wall. We're gonna build a wall!
So, yesterday I had a great honor. Because I never asked for this. The Border Patrol people. 16,500 people. They called up, and they said, “we'd like to endorse Mr. Trump. We have never endorsed the presidential candidate before”. They said “we wanna ednorse”. That tells you! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Between…between Sheriff Joe and The Border Patrol, we understand who's strong on that. We are by far the strongest on…border. We will build a wall…and who's gonna pay for the wall!? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘MEXICO’. Who!? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘MEXICO!’ EVEN LOUDER.
Now, we…Mexico…by the way, sure as you're sitting here, Mexico…will pay for the wall! They have…a trade deficit, we have, with them! 58 billion dollars a year. Now, think of it. The wall is…it…think of it. And can you believe…? That's not including the drugs that are pouring across the border. That's exclusive…that's exclusive of the fact that our kids are being poisoned. Don't take drugs, okay? …–MR. TRUMP ADDRESSES THE KIDS BEHIND HIM. Raise your hand. Raise your hand! Come here! Raise your hand! …-THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. Raise it! Come here!
You know, this is what…people ask what do I tell. I said to my kids, “no drugs! No alcohol! No cigarettes!”. Raise your hands, kids!
“I promised Donald J. Trump”…­–THE KIDS IN THE BACK REPEAT AT UNISONE–…”that I will never take drugs”. I don't wanna say “no alcohol”, but take it easy on the alcohol! Right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS VIVIDLY. And you know what else? No cigarettes, right!? All right, kids. Come here. Come here. Come here…­THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Okay![MGF5] 
No, they’re beautiful kids. But you know what happens, once you get hooked on the alcohol or the drugs, it makes your life very hard. And the one thing I can tell you [is that], if you don't ever take it you'll never get hooked, you know? You'll never get hooked. So, that's good…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. That may be the most important thing I've done today!
So, look folks. We're gonna have a strong border. We're gonna start winning again. I hope on Tuesday you go out, you vote for me, I will not let you down. I promise. You will never see anything like you're gonna see…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I promise.
So on Tuesday, go out and vote! It'll be the greatest vote you've ever made! And we are gonna start winning again! We will make…America…great…again! I love you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you everybody! …–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Thank you!
