Oh, wait until you see what happens on Tuesday! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We’re tired of these politicians, these phony politicians, we’re tired of them. Boy, it’s all talk, no action; the same thing.
You know, I was listening today and, a very good guy, say, they used to say, “if they win the house, watch the difference”. We won the house…nothing happened.
Then they said, “oh, but if we win the Senate, watch what’s gonna happen!”. We won the Senate, [and] nothing happened! I actually think Obama got stronger as opposed to weaker if you wanna know the truth! He gets everything he wants! …–THE CROWD BOOS TIMIDLY. It's gonna be so different, folks…; it's gonna be so different. It's gonna be so beautiful…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, I just had a good moment. I…I'll tell you, cause…it…we all love sports, right ? Sports? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. So, a young guy…uh…a golf pro he's…working from here one of my clubs, the one in New Jersey, which is gonna have the women's US Open next year, and gonna have the PGA Championship, his name is Jim Herman. You heard about Jim Herman. So, Jim Herman just won the…Shell Houston Open. And…he beat…uh…Stenson, and…Dustin Johnson, all great players! You know, all great. And he's my…and he's my golf pro, if you can believe it! And I said, “you know, you have to be good at picking people”. Whether it's to negotiate against China! …or sports, or…whatever you wanna do.
Go ahead, sit down folks if you want. Sit down…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. That’s right.
I heard those people in the back saying ‘sit down’, [and] I said, “maybe the protesters”, right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. But…but Jim Herman, a…great guy, and…had no money, but he had a lot of talent. And…about five years ago, uh…my pro, Mickey Gallagher, said to me, “Mr. Trump, could you do me a favor? Could we play a round of golf? This guy's really talented. [He’s] Winning everything locally, and doing really well. And, all he does is give lessons, because he gives lessons, because…he had no money!”.
So I played a round of golf with him [and] after about five holes I said, “you should be on tour”, and I’m pretty good at this stuff. You know, I’ve seen a lot of guys [that] shouldn’t be on tour, but they’re really they really shouldn’t be on tour, right? And I tell them, “don’t waste your time”. But this guy was really long, really straight [he] had everything! But, he had no money. And it takes money to go on tour!
So I said, “what are you doing this afternoon?”.
He said, “you shouldn’t be giving lessons! You’re a tour player. You’re a…tour quality player. He was like…about 28 years old, which is very old at that time, to be…going and trying to get on tour! And so I gave him backing. I didn’t have to write out a document. I just said, “look, here’s some money, go on tour”. His wife called me and thanked me. Everybody thanked me…; And he went on tour. And he went on the Nike tour. You know, that’s a lesser tour. And after a couple of seasons he won one tournament. Then he got onto the…main tour, and…he came from nowhere, and today he won the Shell Houston Open! Do you believe this!? Do you believe it!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And Johnny Miller said, “uh…you know, he plays golf with Trump!”. I mean…­–MR. TRUMP GIGGLES. And now we won this big tournament! And that last…uh…hole was amazing. It was a long, long par-4 with water all down the left, and a lot of guys…great players, you know, you have…great players! And…but all named players, you know guys that are…top-10 players; many of them in the tournament. And…uh…he added a great drive, had to hit a great second. So he got the drive, beautiful, right down the middle, like 300 yards. And then he hit the second shot about 20 feet from the pin.
Now, all he had to do is two putt. Now, only athletes or only people that are in sports or golfers know how hard that two putt is, right!? Do we know!? It's like…­–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY–…you know, when you can't breathe, right? Cause we have a lot of choke artists in government. They’re chokers! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. They choke! They’re the worst!
So he hits it 20 feet, 25 feet, it's uphill, and then downhill, which is a tough putt. And he hits it, two within a foot and he…two putts. And he wins the tournament and everyone's going now crazy the Donald Trump predicted this! I am so happy! In fact, I'm so happy [that] I'm leaving! I'm gonna call him! Bye everybody, I’m out! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I'm only kidding!.
No, but I'm so proud of him! I mean, how…? Isn’t that a great story? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And to think that…you know, you had…just…it shows…it shows the impact that…you can have one people's lives, really. He'd be right now a teaching pro giving people lessons,, hit…they're hitting the ball, 12 yards, right? He'd be giving people lessons, and he's now…a top champion, and because he won today, he's in the Masters next week, which is just a tremendous story…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, Jim where proud of you, Jim! Who would have thought that was gonna happen!? But…uh…it's called talent! And that's what we need. You know, when I say, “I want people…to negotiate great trade deals”. I know the most talented negotiators in the world. But…many of them you know. You know, Carl Icahn endorse me. [A] great businessman worth billions and billions of dollars. [He] Doesn't wanna…he just wants to do it! But Carl endorsed me. I know…all of them.
And one of the things I always say, I know the best negotiators; I know people that are overrated; I know people that you've never heard of…that are as good as anybody in the world, and that's like Jim Herman! Nobody ever heard of him. He's a teaching pro from Bedminster, New Jersey. And…he's an assistant pro! And was just…it all started a few years ago and it's been a great story. And I just looked to USA Today, I just spoke to some of the other…big sportscasters and they all want…it…you know, what do I think? And there's only one thing.
But remember, I'm gonna put that same…whatever it is…to work for you, in…terms of making our country…great…again. Okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna make…America…great…again!
But it's tough. I will tell…–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘BUILD THE WALL!’–…oh, we're gonna build the wall, don't worry. Who's paying for that wall!? Who's paying!? Mexico, Mexico, Mexico! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. Mexico’s paying! They are! You know, they are. They are paying.
Uh…by the way, 100 percent. Somebody said, “well, you're not really gonna…”.
I said, “100 hundred percent”.
So we have a trade deficit with Mexico 58 billion dollars a year. Let's say the wall costs 10 billion, okay? Let's say it goes 10 billion! And this is gonna be a real world, not those little walls [that] they build where a trucks drive right through the middle of them, right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. It doesn't even dent the trucks, you know? You know, there’s no dent. Maybe a little paint comes off the fender. Uh…it's ridiculous. Folks, it's so…ridiculous. Uh…this is a real wall. This…see that ceiling? That ceiling is peanuts compared to the height of the wall, don't worry about. Don't worry…–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. Look at all those signs! Melania, she's coming tomorrow! My wife is coming tomorrow! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. She's already on her way! Look! Wow, “Melania for first lady!”. She’ll be a great first lady, I wanna tell you. That will be a great first lady. Wow, thank you! Look at all those beautiful signs! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Wow!
And they're not like the phony sides; but, you know, the protesters? They have these signs that come right out of factories, about Trump and this and that. And they come like right out of factories. Those signs were made with love! That's beautiful, thank you…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Thank you.
But I'll tell you, I'll tell you. Uh…it’s…it's been an amazing experience. Wisconsin…is gonna be such a big surprise on Tuesday…; we are doing so well…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we are doing so well…;
I just did Greta. It was…terrific on FOX, and tomorrow night we're doing Hannity, Sean Hannity's, [a] fantastic guy…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And we do a lot of other, we're doing a lot of shows. And…and ,frankly, I'll tell. Uh…the…the hardest part, politically, such lies…!
So, today, I’ll…let me…I have to give you this story, because to me, I think it's really one of the words.
So, in Florida I wasn't expected to win, because I’m running against a senator, initially .A senator, [a] sitting senator; [a] young…they called him ‘the face of the re…Republican Party. He’s a nice guy! Okay. Marco. And then running against Jeb Bush, right? Jeb Bush! …­–THE CROWD MUTTERS.
So they set the rules that whoever wins Florida gets 100 percent of the delegates, because they’d figured one of those two would win. Actually, it was done for Jeb, because…Marco wasn't supposed to run, because Jeb was running and Marco…you know, Jeb was his mentor and he wouldn’t…but he ran.
[Do you] Remember I said “they hate each other”, and everyone said, “no, they don't. They're very close friends”?
I said, “they hate each other!”. [It] Turned out they hated each other. I'm right about this stuff! I'm very good at it, believe me! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But anyway.
But they said it because they thought Jeb…would easily win Florida. And he'd get a hundred percent of the delegates. So they said it so that Jeb…would get a hundred percent, or that marker would get. But…in other words, one of the two…establishment guys would get 100 percent, 99 delegates.
And then I came along. Oh, did I destroy this! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Oh…! And the first poll that came out it was like Trump: 44…percent, and Jeb was at 12 percent, and Marco was that like 14 percent. They said, “what do we do!? What do we do!? We gotta change it! This is no good! Trump will get all 99 delegates! It wasn't supposed to work…!”. Let me tell you, this politics stuff, folks it’s so…it's so…crooked! It's so crooked! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So they thought about changing it back: “maybe we can change it back! This wasn't supposed to happen!”. And anyway.
So, as you know, a few weeks ago I won the state of Florida, which I love. And…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and I don't mean won it by like…a little bit. It was…uh…a blowout. It was a huge landslide. [I] won it by 20 points…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [I] won it by, almost, 20 points! It was shocking! And we pick up 99 delegates. So, I say to all of those crooked politicians that said it…so that they said it, “so Trump would get hurt”. Thank you very much, folks! We…appreciate it, right? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Terrible.
But I'll tell you what's so bad. A couple of things, which is…interesting. So, commercial. I turn on television, and during…Florida, when I was there for weeks ago, I have never seen…so many…negative ads! And in fact, I saw, in one of the stations…–SUDDENLY, A YELL INTERRUPTS MR. TRUMP. IT IS A PROTESTER–…get out of here, please. Get out of here…–THE CROWD BOOS. Get out of here…­–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. This is what our country is fighting, folks. This is what we're fighting, guys like that, you know. It's really sad. It's really sad. No, it's really sad, when you think of it.
So, what happened is, in Florida, we had so…many…negative commercials. All paid for by special interests and lobbyists, because they want guys like Cruz…to win. And they want guys like…you know, all of them! Kasich!
Kasich is now one for 30! Is it one for 30 or one for 29? He's one for 30! It's good if he gets out! I don't want him in! I don't want him in. Why are you in? Cause frankly, if it were the case of…he's now one-one state, barely. And if I  would have…campaigned there two more days…! I didn't wanna leave Florida, because I want to make sure I won. In retrospect, I should have left Florida…a day early. I would have won…Ohio.
But, here's a guy…and everyone says he's such a nice guy. It's not a nice guy! [Do you] Remember the first debates? He came at me so strong…! I said, “wait a minute. You were a managing director of Lehman Brothers, which almost took the entire economy down!”, okay? Give me a break! He's not a nice guy! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. He's a nasty guy, [if] you wanna know the truth.
But remember [that] he came, and I said…I hit him really hard? Twice! Two debates in a rowe. And then after that, he shut up…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIIMDL. And then, he'd watch everyone else argue, and nobody cared about him. So he used to say, “well, I'm the grown-up in the house”. That was a nice excuse that nobody cared about him! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY.
And to be honest, in all fairness to jab and Marco, and Rand Paul, and every…they could have done the same thing! They could have just stayed from week, to week, to week, to week. And the problem is, he's in the way…of me! Not…not…Cruz! He hurts me more than he hurts Cruz!
I'm going to New York. We have a phenomenal poll in New York that just came out . I’m winning by 30 something points. Re…remember this…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…by many, many points. And the problem is I got both of them, right? Now, if I didn't have Kasich, I’d automatically win. All I have to do is what? cuz if I get 50 percent, lots of good things happen, right? So I'm way over fifty percent, but with Kasich it’s harder! And he shouldn't be in! And…let me tell you, if he wants…see, he wants to get to the convention. That's okay. Go to the convention and announce you wanna be president. But you shouldn't be…littering up…the…process, because that's what he's doing. It's really a disgrace, I'll tell you. And…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and if he's doing it, and I mean this: if he's doing it…if he's doing it, then…Marco, and all of these other guys should have just stayed in. It just kept nine…you know, all these people in! It's really not fair. He's one and 29, or 30, or some…ridiculous. I think it's even worse than that! He's one-one, and it's a home state. So, that's what I have to say.
He also…remember this. I'm just gonna do him quickly. Cuz he's not a factor. but it's not right. Remember this: he voted for NAFTA. He's in favor of TPP, which is gonna destroy Wisconsin…–THE CROWD BOOS. TPP is gonna destroy…; so that's on Kasich.
Cruz is totally in favor of TPP. Not only is in favor of it, he doesn't wanna talk about monetary…manipulation. He doesn't wanna talk about devaluation of currencies. That's how they kill us, folks! That's how we're being killed. That's how our business are being taken away like candy from a baby! They manipulate the currencies like great…chess…masters! They manipulate the price. They manipulate…they take their currencies, and they devalue it so…brilliantly! And because we have no leader in this country, he allows them to get away with it.
And by the way, I have to interject. Do you notice I don't use teleprompters? Although I used one for the big speech…and everybody loved it! Everybody loved it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But…it's too easy! No, no, using teleprompters is too easy!
“Ladies and gentlemen I'd like to thank you very much. It's wonderful to be in Wisconsin…” …–MR. TRUMP REPRESENTS HE READS FROM A TELEPROMPTER. THE CROWD LAUGHS, CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. “It’s wonderful. Are we having a good time? Ladies and gentlemen. By the way, your economy…is totally overrated. You're in the middle of the pack. You’re not dioing very well. And you're losing your jobs!”. Oh, that's too easy! But I…you know, it's one of those things.
Ivanka called. She's said, “dad, be presidential”.
I said, “let me get rid of the other two, and then I'll be presidential”, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Right? Right? [MGF1] But I…I have to tell you this. I have to tell you this, look. And we have such a big…thing, because…honestly? Hey, look, I have a lot of friends in Wisconsin, and they'll come into New York, and…I love them. They're unbelievable people. They’re strong, smart, great…they're great people!
And, they told me, like 3-4 months ago. They said, “you're gonna do great…in Wisconsin”. But they said, “you have to come there and talk! You have to come…; you can’t do it from…uhm…Fifth Avenue”, right?
I said, “I don't mind!”. And I was supposed to leave three days ago. I said, “I'm not leaving! I love this place! This place is great! No, it's great!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We had…I was watching the news before, and they were showing the lines outside. You know, we have thousands of people that couldn't get in, folks, okay? If anybody wants to give up their seat, get out of here and somebody will…–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
But we have…uh…and last night we had, at least 5,000 people that couldn't get in. And tomorrow, I'm doing two biggies. I think we're doing a 6,000, and like a 15,000. And it's gonna be…it's gonna be amazing. The problem is we can't get bigger auditoriums! It's hard to get big auditoriums around here, but they're packed! Every one of them has been packed. The response has been unbelievable.
But I…I have to tell you. So, in Florida I was getting all these negative ads. And you probably heard. You know, I own Doral, it's called Trump National Doral. It’s beautiful. Brand-new, beautiful! I…I…blew it up and rebuilt it. And they have a big, big tournament. And the…tournament at Doral was won by the great Adam Scott, who's a fantastic player. And, he wins the tournament's, hits this great shot, and they go to commercial.
I said, “oh, no don't go to commercial”. Trump ad, Trump ad, Trump ad; but only negative ads, right? Horrible ads, horrible ads…; 90 percent aren’t true. A little bit of it…are true, you know, in all fairness. You’d…a little…kernel…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. [A] little bit! Uhm…not too much! But…but, these horrible ads! And I said, “oh, don't do this!”.
So, “Adam Scott sinks the putt. Now we'll go to commercial, and then we'll present the trophy to Adam Scott!”.
I said, “turn off all the televisions!”, on the green. “Turn them off!”. I have never seen…so much…so many bad…horrible…negative commercials, in Florida.
So, then they did a thing, the other day, I watched it on FOX, where…they had…uh…I think they said 58, or 68,000 commercials. Did you see it? And they spent like…57…million dollars! It was even more than that. 57 million…all negative commercials! How would you like to have 57, [or] 58 thousand! Tho…thousand! I didn't even know it could be that much. I knew it was a lot! Because I couldn't turn on television. But, thousands and thousands of negative ads false.
So, here. I wanna tell you story. So, I see today. I’m…I'm in the hotel, and…I'm getting ready to come over here, and I see this commercial. And it's a total lie! It's…named Club for Growth. And we put them on notice! We said, “you lied!”. Did you see it? Where they have the…bar charts? And they said, basically, that if…if Cruz, and Kasich…! If you took their delegates, and added them up…; and they have Trump, with 735…and we just won Missouri, by the way, so we can add some more.
But…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…but they have this bar chart. I think it's like three…uh…737. And then they have Cruz at 300 and something; and [they] have Kasich’ve…Kasich has not much. You know, just…it…really, just the state of Ohio, which is what he won! What is it ? one-30.
So they added them up. So, it's way below…my number! Right? You saw the commercial! This is, they’re…they're really bad people. So, let me show you. So, I have a chart here…; and then they say, “but if you added them up, it's more than Donald Trump!”.
And I say, “wait a minute…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…“…if you add them up, it's substantially less”. But they show my line, and now they show a line that's much more!
Now, it's a lie in two ways. Number one, they added incorrectly. So, we put them a notice, and told them to change it, right? The…media put them on notice, cause there's been many stories about it that it's a lie. Okay? It's a lie! It's a pure outright fraud.
But more importantly than that, let's take Kasich or the other one got out! Many of those people are coming to me! So, it's not like they just take them and say, “let's add this one, and this one, and bop!”. I'm gonna get a lot of them!
When Jeb Bush dropped out…people said, “wow, I went up a lot!”, cause I'm…I’m doing great! I'm way up high! In fact, NBC came out with a poll two, [or] three days ago where I'm at…48 compared to, like, in the 20s for…for them. And I said, “you know”…; and I have another one that came out…just…two days ago. We're at 53! That's with other people in the race! That's pretty good!ª
But what happens, think of how a liar…how…how horrible…The Club for Growth. You know, they act like they're…innocent babies! So, they take these two numbers, they add them up, and they show a bar chart that's much higher, much higher than mine! And it's much lower, because if you added them up, it's still much less than I have. And they didn't change it! And they don't wanna change it, because they're dishonest people.
But let me give you much worse. I never heard of The Club for Growth. A friend of mine calls me, [and] says, “would you do me a favor? Would you see the The Club for Growth?”.
I said, “what's that!?”. I said, “what are they!? Who are they!?”. I'm doing the guy a favor. He’s friend of mine. He’s a great guy. I like to do friends favors, you know…stupidly! I like to do friends favors.
So he said, “oh, they're a conservative group, and they…”.
Okay. I said, “fine! Let them come in”. This guy comes in, an ex-congressman, which tells you a…immediately a lot about him…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS. And…and…he starts telling me about Club for Growth. I said, “do me a favor. I don't have a lot of time. Just…like…can you do it like in one minute?”.
So, he tells me about The Club for Growth. I said, “fine”. He asked me for a million dollars. I said, “a million!?”. I said, “let me ask you. Do I look like a stupid person?” …­–THE CROWD LAUGHS. “I don't even know what you are! I never heard of you! Who are you!? For a million dollars! I mean, how about like…five thousand!?”, okay? …­–THE CROWD LAUGHS. But no, he wants a million dollars!
Then, he leaves, and I was very nice to him! But he leaves. And…I get a letter like the following week, from The Club for Growth, asking me for one million. In a letter! Now, you tell me how stupid is this guy?
So, he writes a letter, asking me for one…million…dollars! People…I don't even know. I met them for a few minutes, at a…thing where he asked me for a million dollars! Right? I tell them very nicely, “no, thank you”. I'd rather take the money and throw it out to this audience. Give it to the kids…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…really! No, really!
You know, you may be rich, but we don't have to be stupid! Right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. And, I just don't like to be taken advantage of, right? So, he’d figured… “oh, well”.
And then, I now I…I have an enemy. And I see today ads from The Club for Growth! And this phony ad, with the…the numbers were added up purposely wrong…!; should I sue them for that!? Is there a lawsuit there? Right? Don't you think so? I mean, maybe there's a lawsuit. That's disgusting! No, it’s disgusting. No, they're dishonest people!
So, I see these ads! And it says, “Club for Growth. Club for Growth. Club for Growth”. Just remember, folks. When you turn on those…televisions, and you see negative ads…against me, they're all…they’re crooked people! They’re dishonest people. They wanna keep Cruz going, because he accepts money from all of them. Campaign…money. PAC money! I see where he's having an event tonight, where they don't have very many people showing up, by the way. Who wants…who cares about them? But…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…but they're having an event tonight, okay? They're having an event.
And they said, “it's paid for by his PAC!”. What's that!? It's not supposed to be paid for by his PAC! It’s supposed to pay for it himself! It's paid for…out of his PAC! Number one, that's illegal, I think! But, the pack isn't supposed to be having events! They're supposed to pay…with money they raise the old-fashioned way, the hard way, right?
So…–THE CROWD MUTTERS–…so, and the…the news announcer said, “here’s Ted Cruz…”; they didn’t say nothing was wrong with it! Uh…they just…; I know something's wrong with it! In fact, why don't you…writers, write that? …–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE CAMERAS. Ted Cruz…cause these…these are the most dishonest. They make Ted Cruz look like a baby, these guys…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. Why don't you write that!? Why don't you write that Ted Cruz’s event tonight was paid for by his PAC!? Get out of here! Get out of here! Get out of here! …–THE CROWD BOOS. APPARENTLY, THERE IS A PROTESTER. THE CROWD CHANTS ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Get him out! Get him out! …–THE CROWD BOOS.
Is it fun to be at a Trump rally? Is this great? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. This is great! Honestly, they're lost. Kids like that are just lost. They’re really lost. In a way lost souls. You know, it's sad! I mean, it’s sad. But anyway…–THE CROWD BOOS. It’s sad.
So…so, they have…they have…this…they have this thing, and it's held by a pack. And, you know, I think it's really…I think it's really sad. Just so you understand, the politicians…are…all talk, no actions. [It’s] not gonna happen. Ted Cruz…Ted Cruz never hired a person in his life. He doesn't know about jobs. He sees the kind of numbers I'm getting, where we're getting these massive numbers. Pennsylvania, through the roof. New York, through the roof.
I was gonna tell you before we were interrupted. In New York, it's really…nice when the people that know you best have you way, way, way ahead, where you have a 30 some-odd point lead. 30 some-odd point! Which means they won't even…I don't even think they contest it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS
But these are people that have known me for many, many years! Okay? So, this isn't like…you know, you go to a state where they really don't know you very well, and you have to sort of…convince them who you are. I mean, boy, do they know me in New York! And…and they're tough! And they’re smart! And they know Trump. And it's something nice when they know you in New York…they know you in New York, and you have the kind of numbers that you have which are through the roof. Nobody's seen numbers like that.
So, I think it's just a great, great compliment, and…I wanna thank the people of New York. I wanna thank them, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Also Pennsylvania! Big, big, big…big, big, big in Pennsylvania!
So, look I want you to see, and I didn't do a fancy job cuz why should I, right!? Why should I!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. You all know it's true. We don’t need fancy stuff! You know, it's funny. Uh… lot of people spent tremendous amounts of money. Tremendous amounts.And I've spent a lot of money! I'm up to close to 40 million dollars. I'm self-funding my own campaign, by the way, folks…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I'm self-funding! I don't think I get anything out of it.
You know, I came this morning, I'm…we're driving, and I said…I'm looking at some numbers quickly. I said, “look at…what’s…? We're gonna make America great again, that's what the key is”. But I said to my people, I said, “I don't think I get any benefit by self-funding”. In other words, nobody goes to the polling booth and they say, “I'm gonna vote for Trump because he's self-funding”, meaning he’s not paid off, meaning he's not bought…by…oil and gas, by the banks, by…; I’m not bought by anybody! I bought by you! I’m bought by you! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS
And I said to my people…I said to my people, “you know, for the little bit of a voting benefit I get, I don't think it's much”…I honest…I really…mean this. I think for the kind of money…I'll be in for a lot more than that. But for…for…but it's a lot! But there's something nice, like…I went to New Hampshire. I was in for two million dollars. Another person, let's not mention names, was in for 48 million…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. I was in first place by a landslide. We won in a landslide, right? The other person was practically last. Who do you want is your president? Who? Right? Who!? Who? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So…so what I've done is…I'm in for like 35 to 40, I think. I’ll…soon be in for 40 million dollars, and…I haven't had to advertise as much, because I get a lot of…free advertising, I guess…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…you know, they cover me! Cause anything I say, they make a big deal out of it.
You know, I talk about NATO. I'm right! I said it's obsolete. We spent too much money! No, it’s…it’s ridiculous! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You got 28 countries and that was very interesting. Wolf Blitzer, I'm on the show, “what do you think of NATO!?”. Now, it's not…you know, I'm a…entrepreneur. Nobody's really given me big questions on NATO! But I have a natural instinct for…this kind of stuff.
Don't forget: I talked about Bin Laden…in my book in the year 2000, before he knocked down the World Trade Center. I said, “keep the oil”. I said, “keep the oil”, [do you] remember? For years I’ve been saying, “keep the oil! Don't leave!”. I said, “don't go into Iraq!”. Once we're into Iraq I said, “before you leave, keep the oil!”. But who has the oil now? Iran has the oil. ISIS has the oil.
I said, “don't do Libya!”. Look at Libya! Look at Libya. You know who's got the oil there? You know! ISIS! They got the oil! Are we blockading them? No. Are we doing anything? No. General George Patton…like 12 minutes, it's over! It's over! I don't know what the hell we're doing! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I don't know what we're doing! And did you hear Obama yesterday!? Obama yesterday…started…showing his tremendous disappointment at Iran…for…violating the deal! …–the crowd laughs and mutters. I said, “I could have told you that…five months ago! You’re so incompetent! You are so…totally…incompetent as a president! You are so incompetent!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY.
I mean, honestly…? He’d a…honestly? He doesn't have a clue, folks…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. He doesn't have a clue. He's now starting to criticize Iran. And…I mean, look. Number one, we should have had our prisoners back years ago. We should have never started the negotiations until the prisoners were released! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. We ended up releasing them after we get 150…billion…dollars, right? We end up getting up getting our prisoners, like we paid 150 billion…for the four guys, okay? I…I…it's…it's just…terrible. And we have still another one over there and they say they don't know where he is. They know where he is. You could imagine, probably, where he is, but we have another one over there.
But you look at what we're doing! You look at that deal, and Obama now comes out and he says that…there…I guess he said they're sort of violating it! You know, he did it in verse off manner. I…I thought they were violating it…a month ago, when I heard about them buying missiles from Russia! Are they allowed to buy missiles!?
And with all of that, the 150 billion, they’re not buying for us! But we have a restriction that not allowed to buy for us! Now, if I made a deal like that, I’d take the restriction off! Let them buy from Boeing! They’re buying a 118 airbus planes. Big ones, right? Well, why aren’t they buying from Boeing? And then, I heard they have a restriction. They can't buy in the United States. I mean, how stupid are we? How stupid!? How stupid is this country!? How stupid are these leaders!?
And, that's why I'm running, folks, because, basically…look. Ivanka just had a…beautiful boy, my grandson. Another good…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And…we all know Ivanka…She's great. I’m…I'm essentially…I'm doing it for you, I'm doing it for him, I'm doing it to them, I'm doing it from my grandchildren, for my children…I…it…the country's treated me so good! I built an un…believable…company! By the way, if it wasn't, they would have been, all of…­­–MR. TRUM POINTS AT THE CAMERAS–…because they were…; when I filed those papers, almost a hundred papers, and my company it's…phenomenal. It's…tremendous cash flow, it's very little deadt. Some of the greatest assets in the world: buildings, and…some of the great assets of the world. Turnberry, in Scotland, and…so many things. Some of the really great…; and you know what? I don't say it to brag! I say, “here's a company that I built”, and…and started off with very, very little, believe me, a very, very small loan, and now it's worth over 10 billion. That's the kind of thinking the country needs! I don't want anything, folks! I'm not taking salaries…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…I'm not…it's so important…! We've got it straightened out of our country!
So, when I said…when Wolf Blitzer asked me the other day, he said, “well, NATO!”. So it's not like I get that question every day! You know, for…for eight months I've been doing this. But I knew! It's obsolete. It was designed for the Soviet Union. There is no Soviet Union! There is Russia. Russia's a problem. I think we'll get along fine with Russia, but Russia's the problem.
But our real problem now is terrorism. And, they have the wrong countries in it.
But here's another problem: so we have 28 countries. Most of them, many of them are, on for a free ride! We're paid for…tremendous amounts! I mean, people say 72 percent. We're paying…for a vast amount of this stuff! These other countries are paying! Also the Ukraine. I have friends of the Ukraine. They're great people. But, why are we always the ones that are talking about the Ukraine? Why isn't Germany talking about the Ukraine? Why aren't these other countries surrounding it a bit…? It's always Obama! “We want you out! We want you…!”.
I said, “what about the countries that surround…? We don’t ever hear about it”, right? Am…am I wrong? We gotta rebuild our country, folks! But, so with NATO, I don't say…get rid of NATO. But, will readjust it! And you know what? If they won't do it, bye-bye! That's it! That's it! That's it! That's okay! It's okay. And I'll tell you, honestly, as soon as I say that, and as soon as we officially walk, they'll all come in and they'll all pay.
And one of the early things I'm gonna do is I, meaning I through people, cause I'm not allowed to do that because presidentially, it doesn’t look good if I call up…some country in Europe and say, “listen, you owe us a lot of money!”…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Don't worry, I have guys that could do that very well. Not as good as me, but they do it very well.
But look, we have…tremendous amounts of delinquencies. They don't pay! They don't pay cuz they don’t respect us. They're getting a free ride in NATO. And here's what happens. I took a lot of heat for two days, you saw that, right? “Donald doesn't know anything about…you know, world defense, and world defense; and it…nothing!”.
And then, two [or] three days later, some of the experts on NATO said, “this Trump's unbelievable! He said it's obsolete!”. They've been studying it so long they never knew it was obsolete…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. It’s true! Did you ever do something where you working so hard on something that you really don't realize what's wrong with it!? They said, “Trump said it’s obsolete!”.
I said, “because it doesn't cover terrorism”. It wasn't meant. First of all, it has the wrong countries, in many cases, okay? Not in all cases, but…we need different countries! So maybe we start something else for terrorism! But it doesn't cover…;
So, some people are now saying, “wow!”. In fact, The Washington Post wrote a great story today. Really, I thought it was a great story! …talking about it.
Then they said ‘Japan’! You know, they give you a little sound bites, okay? They give you a little sound bites! Little tiny sound bites! So they said ‘Japan’. Now, most people don't even know. Do you know, we defend…Japan? How smart are we? We're geniuses. Except they don't pay as much, right? They pay us peanuts. We defend Japan. We defend Germany. Who has a Mercedes-Benz? Okay? They're all over the place. We have…we defend Germany. We defend…Saudi Arabia! We defend South Korea! We have 28,000 soldiers of the line…between the maniac, right ?And South Korea! South Korea is immensely wealthy. Whenever you buy a television set…Samsung, LG…all of them! They come from South Korea…other than Sony; it comes from Japan! But we defend them.
So, here's a sorry: I said, “no”. And, by the way, I'd rather keep it this way. But they have to pay us, folks! They have to pay us! We have any money! We have 19 trillion dollars of debt! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [It’s] Going to 21 trillion dollars!
So…so, what happens…what happens is, I give this…interview to a group of people, and Obama said, “he doesn't understand the world”. I understand who are much better than he does! I have so much more co…; I told him this Iran deal was no good…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. I told him not to let the Syrians in because we have no idea who they are! We have no idea where they come from. They could be ISIS! And they might not be, but they could be ISIS.
Did you ever noticed the migration? There's so many young, strong men! Where the women and children!? There aren't that many! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. And I said, “don't let them in”. You can't let them in. We'll build a safe zone. We’ll build the free zone, safe zone in Syria. I'll get the Gulf states to pay, cuz I don't wanna pay! We've been paying…too…much! We're paying for everything!
You know, we have the largest…military…budget in the world by many, many times![Do] You know why!? Because we defend everybody! [It’s] Not for us! I mean, our roads are no good! Our bridges are falling down! Our country's falling apart! Our military is totally depleted! We don't take care of our vets! Okay? And we're going to take care of our vets! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…if there's any vets out there.
I have so much support from the vets…! I'm the only [that] one talks about the vets! I have vets coming up to me saying, “we went to Cruz’s speech; we went to all these speeches, [and] the only one that ever mentions the vets is Donald Trump”. They don't even talk about the vets. They don't give a damn about the vets, and I'll tell you that right now! And if he did…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and if he did, he’s United States senator. He should go and do something about it, cause you have plenty of power as a U.S. Senator, okay? So, that's the way it is.
So, what happens…what happens is, they say…now they take a little…sound bite! So, I'm against…anything having to do where the United States…; you know what? I have a simple policy. You know what's called? America…first! America…first! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. Very simple. Very, very simple![MGF2]  And if these other countries don't like it, hey, you always have to be prepared to walk.
So, with Japan, I’d say, “folks, we can't do it anymore. We owe…we’re a debtor nation. We can't do it”. We have tremendous…potential. We have tremendous…; by the way, when you see…you're gonna be so proud of me…! You're gonna be so proud of this country…! The waste, the fraud, the abuse…; I'm gonna save your Social Security. Cruz wants to cut it in half! Okay? He wants to knock the hell out of your Soc…–THE CROWD BOOS TIMIDLY AND APPALUDS. He's gonna knock your Medicare, and your Social Security. You…watch! I'm gonna bring the jobs back. I'm gonna lower your taxes. I'm gonna get the economy started, really started…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, our GDP…our GDP, last quarter, was like…nothing! Zero! So we have more people, it was zero! You saw that! Zero! Do you know, if China ever had zero…they'd have a depression the likes of which you've never seen? They go down to seven or eight percent and it's a national catastrophe! We're at zero, folks. Zero!
So, here's what I said. With…and there's many things we could talk about, and I have all night. [Do] You wanna talk for a while? Yeah! Let’s do it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But…but there's many things. Many, many things.
Here's the story: so I say to Japan, “I'm sorry you gotta…”  …I wanna be nice! My father used to say, “take the lumps out. You're too tough! Take the lumps out!”. I'm not tough. I’m…somebody that…people like. I take care of people. I like to take care. I love people! [MGF3] But he said, “take the…”.  I'm impatient, though! I'm impatient with incompetence. I hate incompetence! And we are surrounded with it…with our leaders! We're surrounded with it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. My father used to say, “take the lumps out. Nice and easy son, take the lumps out”. I learned a lot from him.
And…what I say is this: I say to…Japan, and to the other countries! “We wanna help you. We wanna take care of you. You gotta pay us! We…we don't have any money! You gotta pay us”. We're gonna make it so great…! We're gonna make it so strong…! We're gonna protect you. You gotta pay us. You can't give us a fraction of what it costs. We can't do that anymore! Okay.
Let's say they say “no”, so we take a walk. Most likely, they call you up the next day, and we defend them, and they pay us a fortune. Okay. But if that doesn't happen? Let them defend themselves, okay? Let them. It's time. 50 years. It's time. Let them. Let them…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It's okay. Let them defend themselves.
And let's Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia was making a billion…dollars a day. I have many friends in the Saudis! I’ve…I see them all the time! But they were making a billion dollars a day before they all went down. Now they're making a fortune, but it's not as much, but they’re making a fortune! But they were making one…billion…dollars…think of it! A billion dollars! Here we are, losing hundreds of billions of dollars, they’re making…as a country! We lose hundreds of billions of dollars a year because of all the stupidity! Bad trade deals, bad military deals, bad…everything! We don't win ever! Ever! Because we have stupid people, like Obama that doesn't know what the hell he's doing. Guys like Ted Cruz that are totally taken care of by his packs…! And by his…special interest, and by his lobbyists.
We have people that are bad! I'm telling you! They don't even know they’re bad. I don't even think they know they’re bad. They're horrible. And they're destroying our country. We're not gonna have a country left! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're sitting on top of a big bubble, And if that bubble explodes folks, believe me, it's gonna be like you've never seen. You're never gonna see a country…it's gonna be a whole different deal. We are sitting on something that's very scary.
Did you ever notice the banks? They charge you no money, but they don't loan it. The regulators are running the banks. They don't loan it. If you're Trump, you can have any money you want, but I don't want any money. I don't need money. If somebody needs money to do a business, you can't borrow it. At any price! At any price! And it's supposed to be that you're supposed to be able to start your business, employ people, etc.!
So, what happens is this: we're going to start doing…unbelievable transactions. We're gonna make our country so strong again financially. And I tell the story of a woman that came up to me. She said, “Mr. Trump, I think you're great. I love you. I'm gonna vote for you”. She was like 65 years-old, really sharp! She said, “I'm gonna vote for you. But, Mr. Trump, you have to stop saying [that] you're gonna make our country rich again. It doesn't sound good”.
I said, “I…I’m sorry. Unless we make our country rich again, we're not gonna save Social Security; we're not gonna save Medicare…”. These guys are all gonna kill it! They're gonna kill it!
And…and Hillary is gonna be a total disaster! If she gets in, she's a total disaster! …–THE CROWD BOOS. Don't forget! Don't forget! You remember Benghazi, but Libya was her deal! And now who has Libya? ISIS has Libya. I told you before! ISIS has the oil. We can't allow it to happen…with her.
Now, I haven't even focused in her. I…we started off with 17, I'm down to two, okay? Down to two. And I'm leading the two by a lot. But Wisconsin is really important. Because if we can win…Wisconsin on Tuesday, we’re gonna blow them out the rest of the way. We’re gonna win New York. We’re gonna win New Jersey big…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We’re gonna win New Jersey tremendously.
Chris Christie endorsed us. Chris Christie, from New Jersey. But the numbers in New Jersey are through the roof. The numbers in Pennsylvania came out this morning on CBS, they’r through the roof. And the numbers in New York. So, we're gonna win all this stuff!
[If] We win…Wisconsin, you're gonna be so proud of this country, and it's gonna be so…it's gonna be fast! It's gonna go fast! Because it's a question of…just doing things!
You know, these countries that take advantage of us…like Mexico, they don't even respect us. [Do you] Remember we had sergeant Tahmooressi? He makes a wrong turn; he had some difficult problems, he makes a wrong turn, and he couldn't get out. He was in like this maximum-security prison, and he had…a lot of difficulty. And…I worked hard to get him out. We got him out! I don't think the president made one phone call! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I don't think…! I don't think Obama made a phone call!
And that's the other thing. Uh…yesterday you probably saw. Six…16,500 Border Patrol people endorsed Donald Trump. They've never done it before. Did you see? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. The Border Patrol people endorsed me. These are great people. They can do their job! They're told to stand back! Let people pour into our country. We’ll take care of them, right? Let them pour in.
Now, part of it is…­–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘THE WALL!’–…oh, we’re gonna gonna build a wall, don't even think about that…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY.
But…but part of it is coming to the country and register as a Democrat, okay? That's what's gonna be! I mean, that's why I think they're allowing it! There can’t be for any other reason! It is brutal! And they secure…you know, these are great people, the Border Patrol people. They wanna do their job! It's harder for them to do their job, if you think about. Harder for them to start taking people, arresting them or…moving them back in where they came from. That's harder than just standing there, letting them walk through.
They endorsed me because they don't wanna do what they're told to do. They wanna create a great country, and we can't have a great country unless we have a border! We can't! You can't have…we don't have a country! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…and Cruz, you know…uh…a couple of weeks ago, I heard him say “…and we're going to build a wall!”. Where did that come from!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. All of a sudden he wants to build a wall! He never wanted it! It'll never get built if you get…if you rely on these people. And I'll build a beauty! And it'll be very tall, very strong. It'll look great. It'll look great. Someday they'll name it after Donald Trump, maybe, who knows, but…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…and that’s why I have to…that's why I have to make it look great. But it's gonna be a…real…wall! Not one of these little toys…! And it's going to be paid for! And the reason it's gonna be paid for by Mexico is…I told you: we are losing a fortune with Mexico. And that doesn't include the drugs that are pouring across the border, and poisoning our youth. And others, by the way.
And when I win in Wisconsin, and…and, when I win in Wisconsin, we're gonna come back here. We're gonna celebrate. It's gonna be amazing. And I’m gonna be with you! I’m gonna be with you tomorrow. I’m gonna be with you the next day. I’m not gonna let you get away! We're gonna get those votes!
But let me just tell you…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…let me just tell you. [It’s] So important! Because what we have is a movement! You know, we're in the cover of Time magazine four times in the last number of months. And…and what it is, is it's a movement! And they talk about it! It's a movement. But it will cease to be a movement. It's a movement of common sense. It's a movement of not letting the world take advantage of us. I will get along better with the world…than Obama does, and they won't take advantage of us. I have great relationships! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I mean, look: China…with their 500…billion dollar trade deficit, China builds his massive military…fortress in the middle of the South China Sea! They don't…respect us! They take our money. They close up our jobs. They sell us stuff, no tax. They…boom! Pours in like…garbage. We can't deal with them, because if we have a manufacturer…anybody here that deals with China, they know what I'm talking about. You can't get your product in! And they dumped it on us .
Let me tell you what's gonna happen with me: I'm gonna stop the…manipulation of their currencies, okay? But more importantly, we are gonna have Apple, and many companies, building their products in the United States. Not in China, and Vietnam, and all of these other countries…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. It’s gonna happen! It's gonna happen! Believe me, it's gonna happen.
So, uh…you know, I brought a couple of charts along, and…I just wanted to show you, because it's incredible. And I didn't…you know, we're not gonna make a big deal. But look at this…look at the numbers. I think you can mostly see that. Look at that. [Do you] See what that is? [Do you] See what that is? It ain't pretty! That's what you know, right? Look at: that that's United States manufacturing jobs rapidly declined since the year 2000. Look at…look at the numbers there! We’re not gonna have anything left, folks! When you see Carrier air-conditioner leaving…!
Now, here's what I’d do: number one, I’d talk to them before. I’d talk to them before. Big-league! Big-league! I’d talk to him and say, “don't leave!”, meaning me…it's funny. Again, my wife, “darling, you're so brilliant! You're so great! Act presidential! It's so easy for you!”…­­–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY.
I said, “darling, I gotta win first, you know!? I gotta win!”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. And what's gonna happen…what's gonna happen is, I'm gonna call…Carrier![MGF4] 
Now, the president of the United States is not supposed to be calling…an air conditioning-company, right!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. But I’d do it so well! And it's so easy! And I'm gonna say to the head of Carrier, “congratulations on your move to Mexico. I think it's wonderful. You left 1400 great, great people behind, and is actually more than that. But I wanna congratulate you. I hope you build a beautiful plant. I hope you…really do well. But as you probably have heard, we're gonna have real borders. And every air-con…”…and I buy from Carrier. I buy a lot of air-conditioners. I’m not buying anymore, by the way. But every air conditioning unit…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…really. “Every…single…air-conditioning unit that you make, that comes into the United States through our very strong…very…vigorous and rigorous border…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY–…every air conditioning unit, we're gonna have a tax of 35 percent, okay? I ust want you to know” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And I'm gonna say the same thing to Nabisco. And I'm gonna say the same thing to Ford. And I’m gonna say the same thing to all these sother countries that think they're gonna be…just continuing to take advantage…;
Did you ever look at…at what Congress, and these guys like Cruz are doing? They're trying to figure out ways…: “let's see, how do we talk these companies out of leaving?”. There’s one way! Tax their product coming back in! That's the one way, okay!? Believe me, I'm really good at this stuff! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So…so, here's what's gonna happen. And I'm a free…just so you understand. These…eggheads, you know, these guys…cause I'm conservative. You know, remember when Jeb Bush used to say, before he quit, he used to say, “he is not a conservative!”…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. And I used to say, “what's he talking about? I'm conservative! But I'm smart!”. [Do you] Remember he used to say that? Right? “He is not a true conservative!”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS AS MR. TRUMP IMPERSONATES MR. BUSH.
I'm so conservative in the military. I'm conservative on education. I'm conservative on budgets. I’m…the one thing I agree, on trade…I'm really conservative! But, I believe free trade, but you need smart leaders to have free trade! You can't let the country be…ripped apart, and…the jobs be lost, and all this stuff! …where I see Cruz doing ads now that he's gonna keep jobs! He won’t…he doesn't know where to begin! The guy hasn't done anything! He's a United States Senator…he hasn't…done…anything! He hasn't passed any legislation! He wants TPP! He wants to take the guts out of TPP! He's a disaster, and he's selling you, people, down the tubes. And that he's doing phony commercials, like he's for the working man. I just saw it! I said, it's a disgrace! And I'm gonna reveal it. It's a disgrace, okay? Believe me…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So…so, I'm gonna tell Carrier, “I'm sorry, but you're gonna pay a 35…percent tax on every air conditioning unit you make and bring over the United States”. Outside of the United States? Good luck, folks! “And I hope you build a wonderful plant and have a good life”. And I’ll say, “if you change your mind, call me back”.
I guarantee you this: if it's Hillary, or…if it's…I won't even talk about…the one for 30 guy, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But if it’s Cruz, a lobbyist! You know the lobbyists in Washington? Do you have any idea how good they are? They have ‘Cruz’, emblazoned on their foreheads. I take care of Cruz. I take care of Clinton! I take care of…these are lobbyists that are so smart. They raise millions of dollars for these people!
So, here's what happens. Who knows better than me? I'm the all-time pro. I’m the…nobody's better than me this stuff. Let me just tell you. So what happens is, they go and they hire…the Cruz’s lobbyist. The Cruz’s lobbyist calls up the president, [and he] says, “listen, Mr. President, you can't do that. You can't do that! We supported you. I raised a lot of money for you. You can't possibly do that. We don't want that. We want Carrier to be left alone”. And that’s the end of it!
With me, I didn't take any of their money! I don't want that money! I've turned down tens…of millions…of dollars! I feel so stupid doing it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I feel stupid doing it! My whole life is take, take, take! Greedy, greedy! I want more! Greedy! Now I want more for the United states! I’m gonna be taken for us! I'm taking for us! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And these guys don't know how to do that. These guys…and you know, they're not stupid people! What happens, they know it's wrong! But they're all controlled by the people that give them the money. Just like you here, tonight. The Cruz’s PAC. Super PAC. Give me a break! …–SOMEBODY IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘LYING!’. Take a look at these super PACs. Just like you, here tonight, the Cruz…lyin Ted. Lyin Ted Cruz! He’s a lying…thank you! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Thank you!
Who…who said that!? Who's the man that says…? Stand up! Could talk about…! Lyin Ted Cruz. Tod…Ted…Ted Cruz the biggest liar I've ever met. I've met much tougher people. He is the biggest single liar! In fact, Kasich…made a commercial today about Ted Cruz lying! I said, “who did that for me!?”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. It was a Kasich commercial! With the nose…did you see it wrapping it up. I said, “lyin Ted Cruz”. He comes in, Bible high! “I'm lyin Ted Cruz! I put the Bible down, and then I start to lie!”.
[Do you] Remember what he did to Ben Carson?
He said, “everybody, everybody listen!”; during the elections! Not before it. Not after it. He said, “during the day of the election…”; I heard it too! I said, “gee, that's too bad! I'm surprised Ben left!”. You know, Ben Carson endorsed me. He's phenomenal…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But lyin Ted…lyin Ted Cruz…! [Do you] Remember this thing? During…in Iowa! And frankly, if we had leadership in the Republican Party, they would have disqualified him for what he did, in the state of Iowa! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. The leadership, the RNC and the local Republicans, should have disqualified him for that and another thing, it's called voter violation certificate. But he said to everybody that Ben Carson… “has left the race! He's gone!”. Come in caucus. You know, the caucus. They take you. They sit you. They talk. I hate it. I think the best is you walk in, you vote and you leave, right? But…we're stuck with it! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS TIMIDLY.
But they walk in, they said, “No, Ben’s left: Ben’s left. He's quit the race”. He didn't quit the race! And they got thousands of votes! And they should have disqualified Ted Cruz from Iowa. He’s a cheater! He’s a cheater! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. He’s a dirty, rotten cheat! Remember that!
And then he did something else, which I think is almost worse! And by the way, then he called Ben Carson, right after the election’s over! All the votes are cast. So, it's too late, right? And he said, “I wanna apologize”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. And Ben didn't accept it. Ben said, “can you believe this? The guy calls me up, after the thing is…done. [He] Wants to apologize”.
But then he did a voter…violation certificate. [Do you] Remember? It looked like it's right out of the…IRS. It looked like a government document. And it said on top…I think it was “voter violation”. That you are in violation…! And…you know, these people got scared! And it said, “the only way…”. And then, it's got all these things with check marks…; and then it said, “you can make it up”, essentially! I don't know. It said [that] you can make it up! But you have to go and vote for Cruz. And then you have no more voter violation. And people went then they did it! It's a fraud!
And he said, “oh, I didn't know about it. I didn't know…”; he never knows about anything. You know, this innocent…; he didn't know that he didn't put…you know, he's always saying about, “the banks! We gotta stop the banks!”.
So, with his personal financial…disclosure form, he forgot to put that he borrowed a million dollars at almost no interest. The lowest rate you've ever seen. Anybody in this room would be very proud of that rate. Cause he's a U.S. senator! That's all it is he is! He Gets a low rate!
But he borrowed it from Citibank, and he borrowed it from Goldman Sachs, and a million’s…forgot! He just forgot to mention it! He forgot! And he said, “oh, I forgot! Oh, let me get it done! I forgot about a million dollars. I just forgot!”. Can you imagine if I didn't put a million dollars in? Okay?
And then he said, “I didn't know I was a citizen of Canada!”…­–THE CROWD LAUGHS. You know, he was a citizen of Cananada…–THE CROWD YELLS SOMETHING INAUDIBLE. 16 [or] 17 months ago, he got rid of it . The guy’s a United States senator…; without Sarah Palin, he would have never been elected. He had two percent! And then she came in.
And…she then called me and said, “I'd like to endorse Mr. Trump, because he'll be the greatest president”. Cuz she's legit! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And she endorsed him for president, right? She endorsed him originally for Senator. And he thought that she was gonna endorse him for president! He thought it was routine! He was working hard, he thought he had her. And she called me, [and] she said, “you're gonna be the greatest president”.
And…he couldn't believe that Sarah Palin, who endorsed him…; he was never gonna…go anywhere. He was down at two, or three percent, and she came to Texas, endorsed him for the Senate, and he won! In a total…you know, surprise.
And then, he thought that Sarah Palin would endorse…him for president. And she endorsed me. She, in fact, she just left. A lot of people saw her. She's great. She's great.
And then, senator Ted Sessions, who he talked about, one of the most respected people in the Senate. He's in every speech Ted Cruz made! Senator…Sessions, right? Jeff Sessions, the senator…from Alabama, a phenomenal guy. Incredible on security. Incredible on justice. Incredible on…a truly amazing guy.
So, Ted thought it was routine. He thought he was friends. And they probably are! But Sessions knows that this is not a good person. And he knows that, you know, for…the fact that he stands on the floor of the Senate, and he…filibusters for a day and a half!
And think of it: these senator…say what you want. They're professionals, right? They’re professional politicians. So, this guy's on the floor, reading poems, doing all this stuff for day and a half, or a day or whatever it was. And these senators are looking at each other. “When’s this guy getting off? When's he getting off the floor, so we can get back!?”. [MGF5] I mean, he hasn't done a thing! So, now he's got this great con-job going. And he's got your governor.
And, your governor who, by the way, tomorrow I’m bringing…a plaque. Your governor gave me a beautiful plaque cause I supported your governor. But your governor can't…I never asked him for his endorsement, because…I beat him so badly when he ran for president…! [Do you] Remember? [MGF6] He was gonna win! Then we're all gonna win. Jeb was gonna win. Marco was gonna win. They were all gonna win. Isn't it nice to have somebody that knows how to win? Isn’t that nice? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. They are all gonna win!
But the governor has not done…; you're in the middle of the pack and your surrounding areas, and your surrounding states. You’re the middle of the pack! You're losing a lot of jobs to other countries but that's, you know, standard for the United States, because we have no leadership in Washington.- And I'm gonna do a great job!
Let me just tell you. One thing…how many of you have heard ‘The Snake’? Cause everyone goes crazy. They love it. Did you ever hear ‘The Snake’? Who heard it? Raise your hand! …–THE CROWD CHEERS. ‘The Snake’! Should I do it again? Should I?
You know, it's sort of interesting. I mean, I…so Club for Growth! Don't believe…I'll give you a …; don't believe Club for Growth, go out and vote, do all these things, but…I'm gonna go into the whole thing with ‘The Snake’.
And, here's what this is. We are taking in…thousands, and thousands, and thousands of people that we don't know who they are. But we know it's gonna be trouble someday. You look at Paris, trouble! 130 people dead. Hundreds of people in the hospital, mortally…just horribly wounded. It’s…many will die, and many will…most will not lead a normal life. Horribly wounded. These thugs, these disgusting people, and I used to tell the press: don't call them ‘mastermind’. [Do you] Remember they used to call “the mastermind! We're looking for…!”. Then they wonder why our youth is signing with the internet, and going in, and fighting for ISIS. I'll tell you one thing: they go fight for ISIS with me as president? They never come back into this country. We take them back! We take take them back! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. No, no. Can you believe it!? They go, they fight for ISIS, and then we let them come back into our country! All right.
So, what happens is, I saw this…written by Al. Green, years ago. And…I said, “boy, this pertains to….people that we know are gonna be trouble!”. We have an incompetent president, [he] doesn't have a clue…that's why, when I talk about Japan…they don't mention; and the press, which is the worst; they don't mention the story about economics; they don't talk about the fact that we're losing a …; all they says, “Donald Trump wants Japan…to become nuclear!”. That's not what I say! That's not what I say. You know what I said, cause I have to go through the whole thing. So, they'll take one little aspect of a long complicated process. A process that, probably, involves…and ultimately, will get result by then paying a lot of money to the United States for proper…security. But it could be involved where we…save a lot of money, cause we just can't keep doing this.
And you know, you can make the case that…North Korea, and Japan, which are very close to each other…let them fight it out folks, if they're gonna fight! What do we have to get into…what do we have to get in the middle of everything for? Okay? …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. You know, you could make that case!
Now, tomorrow there'll be an article, “Donald Trump says he wants to see…!”. I don't wanna see anything. Remember always, and I said it before, I was against the war in Iraq. You know, they're always afraid about… “Trump was against…”. I was against. I said, “you're gonna destabilize the Middle East”. That's exactly what happened.
And if our presidents would have taken a trip to the beach, if they would have gone to the beach…for 360 days, just gone to the beach, and not done anything, we would have been a lot better off in the Middle East right now…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. Because Saddam Hussein was a bad guy, and Gaddafi, they were bad guys. But they were really good at one thing: killing terrorists. They would know, that…you didn't…you couldn't be a terrorist in Libya. You couldn't be a terrorist in Iraq! Now, it's like Harvard University…for terror. You go to Iraq. You go to Libya. And Libya was Hillary's baby.
So, what this is, is it was written…and it just reminded me of…what they're going in, and…uh…I'm so glad that the people that have heard it want me to do it again. But I'm gonna do it again. And, uh… it's called ‘The Snake’! ‘The Snake!’. And this has to do with people coming into our country that are gonna have tremendous…ramifications to the health, and safety, and security of our country. Remember it that way…–SOMEBOFY FROM THE CROWD YELLS ‘AND WASHINGTON D.C.! And Washington DC.
“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!’, right? That’s what we’re doing, right?
 
‘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 some 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 in had been 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 in her bosom, ‘you're so beautiful!’, she cried,
but if I hadn't brought you in by now, heaven’s, heaven’s, you would 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.
 
‘You saved me’, cried the woman! Isn’t that incredible? Isn’t that incredible?
 
‘I saved you!’, cried the woman; ‘and you've bitten me, heaven’s 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!’…right!? Right!? Right!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [It’s] So true. [It’s] So true. [It’s] So sad. [It’s] So sad.
 
We're being led by people that don't have a clue. We don't…we…we have people that just don't know. Uh…I…it's…it's just…too hard to believe. But I thought that's…uh…you know, it's something that we have to…hear, and is something I think that's…uh…it's something that we have to think about very strongly.
So, look. Here's the story: we're gonna get rid of Obamacare, [and] we're gonna come up with something so good…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Your premiums are going up 35, 45, 55 percent.
We're gonna save our Second Amendment. People are hitting it left and right. They’re hitting, hitting it, hitting it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna save that Second  Amendment. If they had bullets going in the other way in California…in…remember…as you remember, recently, San Bernardino. If they had bullets going in the opposite direction, you wouldn't had all those people killed, believe me. In fact, if they knew that there were bullets in the room, they might not have even gone in there, okay? No bullets.
Paris, the same thing! You had 130 people killed. If bullets were flying in the other direction, believe me, it's a whole…different…story. Okay? Believe me. A whole…different…story. So we're gonna save our Second Amendment.
We're gonna get rid of Common Core. It's a disaster…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.  We're gonna bring education local. No more Common Core. Education is local.
We're gonna rebuild our very depleted military. We're gonna rebuild it. We're gonna make it stronger, bigger, better than ever before. Hopefully we'll never have to use it. It's the cheapest thing we can do- There's no more being pushed around. We're gonna take care of our vets as part of it. We're gonna take care of our great vets…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We're gonna make strong borders. We're gonna have powerful borders, strong borders. We're gonna have the wall. And we're gonna stop all the drugs, and all the problem, and all the crime from pouring across into our country…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And people are gonna come into our country, but they're going to come in legally! We want them to come in! But they're gonna come in legally.
And here's the other. Look, here's the thing. We're gonna make great new trade deals. We're gonna negotiate, renegotiate our military deals. We're gonna do so much. And we’re gonna do it fast! We're gonna do it fast. It's gonna happen fairly quickly. It's gonna go pretty quickly. I have the best people in the world that wanna do it, not political hacks.
But here's the story: you're gonna remember this night. And you're gonna say, “that was one of the great nights. We were all together as a community”. Wisconsin is a great community. It's a great plac! I love the people of Wisconsin…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You're gonna remember this evening. And more importantly, you're gonna remember Tuesday, cause you're gonna go out and vote. And we're gonna have an unbelievable, resounding victory. This reminds me of New Hampshire. Because in New Hampshire…I wasn't expected to win New Hampshire. We won in a landslide. And I said, “I'll stop the drugs”. They have a tremendous heroin problem, coming from the southern border. And I said, “if I have a winl, you're not gonna have that. That problem is gonna disappear”. We're not gonna have that problem. We're not gonna poison your youth…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Well, you have the same problem, and so does everybody else…–AT THIS POINT, 01.04.54, THE AUDIO AND VIDEO STOPS UNTIL 01.05.04–…This reminds me of New Hampshire. Because in New Hampshire…I wasn't expected to win New Hampshire. We won in a landslide. And I said, “I'll stop the drugs”. They have a tremendous heroin problem, coming from the southern border. And I said, “if I have a winl, you're not gonna have that. That problem is gonna disappear”. We're not gonna have that problem. We're not gonna poison your youth. Well, you have the same problem, and so does everybody else in our country…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
If I get…to where we all want us to get, and this movement continues, and…I become president, number one: you're gonna be very proud of your president. And our country is going to start winning again. We're gonna win on trade. We're gonna win with the military. We're gonna knock out ISIS viciously and quickly…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We're gonna win at every…single…level. We're gonna win again. We don't win anymore! We lose it everything! We lose at every…we lose at education. We lose at every…single…thing…we partake in. We don't have victories anymore. We sign a deal with Iran, the ink isn't even dry, and now a president that doesn't even wanna say it, starts saying it's not working so well…! He doesn't have a clue!
We're gonna start winning again. We're gonna win at so many levels. And you're gonna say to yourselves, “that was the single…greatest…vote, on Tuesday, that I…ever…cast” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUD TIMIDLY.
And I love you…!
