------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Oh, thank you, thank you…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Oh, that's so beautiful! Thank you! Thank you, folks, that's so nice. I…I have to tell you. I have to thank Fred ‘The Hammer’ [Williamson]. You know, uh…he wouldn't be allowed to play in the NFL today. He hits too hard, okay, you know? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. [Do you] see, we're all getting softer. You understand. And, our country's getting softer, but I'll tell you what. That was the…uh…that was the good old days.
So Fred, get over here for a second Fred. Come here. That was so nice! I love people that hit hard! We need people that hit hard! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. MR. FRED GETS ON STAGE AND MR. TRUMP SHAKES HIS HAND.
He was a hitter! He was a hitter! Oh, you know, after one or two hits they sort of said…“I don't wanna catch the ball anymore”, right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. And a really amazing gu. Somebody that Bobby Knight has so much respect for! He said, “[if] you played this guy, it's brutal! Always. He was always tough.
Coach [Gene] Keady, come on out. Come here…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Coach, come on over! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. MR. FRED GETS ON STAGE AND MR. TRUMP SHAKES HIS HAND.
 He…what a great…man, and a great family. I just met his wife and she's an…incredible. We've had so much support!
So, I just gotta call, Lou Holtz just endorsed us! So, Lou…! Lou is another …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. MR. FRED GETS ON STAGE AND MR. TRUMP SHAKES HIS HAND. What incredible…what incredible people. Such…it’s such…spirit. And you know, I…I…love that you people are…but, sit down. We’ll stay with each other for a long time. Sit down.
You know, it's so nice. So often I'll say, “sit down!”. They just refuse. You're gonna sit…and, this is a beautiful place, by the way! This is nice! It’s nice! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. MR. FRED GETS ON STAGE AND MR. TRUMP SHAKES HIS HAND.
And we…we've had this response all over. No matter where we go in the country. We go to Dallas, we go to Alabama…we had 35,000 in Alabama. The other night we had 31,000 in Los Angeles, near the Los Angeles area. We were all over. And I’ll tell you…and they were burning the American flag, okay? You tell me, okay? …–THE CROWD BOOS. Not inside! Inside it was a love fest. We had 31,000 people, it was incredible. But outside, they burned the American flag, and they held up other flags, from other countries. And I wanna tell you, that's not [what] we're about. You know, we're gonna take good care of everyone, but it's America first now, folks. It's America first. Just remember. Just remember that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know, I watch television…there was a group of people, I don't even know…cause I'm doing another one of these at seven. I've been doing them all! But I love doing them! A friend of mine, [a] very, very successful…–THE CROWD CHEERS–…I love doing them!
But a friend of mine, a very, very successful guy came with me to one. I had 24,000, 25,000 in Tampa. And…Tampa, Florida. And he said, “how do you do that!? Get before these people…!?”.
I say, “you know, honestly…?”. This guy's really…a successful guy, [a] great guy. And, not because he's successful. He’s great. He's one of the few! He's…rich, but he's a nice guy. Most rich aren't so nice, but that's okay! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. But we still want them negotiating our trade deals for us, not these political acts!Believe me…believe me…! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So he said, “how do you do that with so many people?”.
I said, “you know, honestly? You get before them, and it's like we're all in love!”. We're…we’re…like…we're just gonna straighten out this country. We love our country. We love each other. And our rallies are the safest place you can be on earth! And, you know, you don't read that. You don't hear that. But our rallies are safe, and beautiful, and there's love in the room. And it's so easy to speak when you have that kind of love in the room. And that kind…whether I'm in…a place like this, or an arena…no matter where you are. We wanna make America great again. And I said to him, “it's so easy to speak! It really is”. He still didn't believe me, but believe me, it is, okay? So, I appreciate you’re all being here, and I really appreciate…thank you, honey. I really appreciate Indiana! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I really appreciate Indiana.
But there was a tremendous line, and they started assembling at…and it was on FOX, and it was on…all of them, CNN…! But it was a huge line! And I'm not sure, it might be for the seven o'clock speech. But, it was this tremendous line. And they met a…few young guys, that were definitely with Cruz! Cruz was like…uh…you know…uh, this guy, the lie…! That's why we call him ‘lyin’…we call him ‘lyin Ted!’. We call him ‘lyin Ted’ …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I never said…;
“Did you know that Donald Trump wants to raise your taxes by 40 percent?”.
And the guy said, “no, he doesn’t”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY.
“Did you know that he's in favor of Obamacare?”.
“No, he's not!”. But I mean…and when he said it, he meant it, this guy…this guy knew. And it was very…and, you know, he actually said, “how is your loan doing at Goldman Sachs?”. That was…I thought, the coolest…–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND CHEERS.[MGF1] 
Now, is that guy here with the sunglasses!? Though I don't know if he's here or seven, but whoever he is, I thought he was very cool. I thought him and his friends. Because, they're not gonna be buffaloed by lies! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…by lies!
You know, I…I…I…wrote down some of the things this guy was saying…uh…to Cruz. [MGF2] And…and it’s just…unbelievable: that I was gonna raise taxes. I have the biggest tax cut…of anybody running for office, by far! And in fact, if there was one criticism of my tax…plan and policy, it was that I lowered taxes too much, okay? And he said…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…it's true! And that was the one…The Wall Street Journal said, “we can't afford that much of a tax decrease”. And I have Cruz saying, “he's gonna raise you taxes 40 percent”. It's unbelievable! Lyin Ted! Uh…it's unbelievable! It's unbelievable! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
He made a statement that, “Donald Trump doesn't intend to build a wall!”. Believe me folks, we're building the wall! Believe me. Believe me, we're building the wall…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. We're building the wall. No, we're building the wall! We have no choice! Do we have a choice!? We have to! …–THE CROWD CHANTS ‘BUILD THAT WALL!’.
The…loyalty…to…all of us! You know, I'm…sort of…just…I consider myself a messenger. I'm a good messenger! I mean, I've been doing this for nine months. These other guys have been doing it for 35 years. You know, we’re boom, boom, boom…! We’re knocking them out you know, like corn flakes, right!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY.
But…but…honestly, the…the whole thing…it's a movement that's going on. And it's…you know, I call it a movement to competence. Because a lot of its common sense. It's like getting into a great school. Often, if you like…apply to Harvard, or you apply to the Wharton School of Finance, or you apply to Stanford, or you apply…it's really hard to get in, but once you're there, it's okay! It’s sort of…like much easier!
It's hard here to do what we're doing, but we have a mission all together. And we're gonna straighten it out. We're not gonna make deals like they made…with Iran, where we're giving a 150 billion dollars. We get absolutely nothing. And now, on top of everything, I've been saying it for a long time…! You see what's happening in Iraq. It's imploding! Iran goes in, takes it over…they won't have to fire a shot. And they've been trying to do it for decades, and decades, and decades! And…you won't have to fire a shot. We handed it to them. [We] Should have never been there, [we] should have never gotten…out the way Obama got out.
How about that? [He] Takes everybody, immediately, and announces the date. Now the enemy…said, “aha, there's no way he's moving that date!”. [It] Turned out it was right! And that's why I say we have to be unpredictable, especially…militarily.
You know, they'll ask me sometimes…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…yeah, we've gotta be…we've gotta be unpredictable. We've gotta…we…we are so totally predictable, and it's so embarrassing. No matter what happens, I mean…it's so…embarrassing. And what we're going to do…is we're gonna go out, and we're gonna make our country so great again. And it's not gonna be…we're not gonna be embarrassed anymore by what happens. We're not gonna be embarrassed that our ten sailors get captured, get treated like hostages…like…like prisoners.
And the only reason they gave them back…; now, with me!? They would have given him back, okay!? With me…!? They would have…not taken them! Believe me, they would not have taken them! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But the only reason we got them back is because in two days the money was supposed to start flowing into…Iran. And you look at what's happening, and you look at how sad it is. And that we didn't get our prisoners, the original four…and there's actually another one over there, by the way, that nobody even talks about. But [the fact] that we didn't get our four prisoners back before we started negotiating…years ago, is a disgrace! We should never…negotiate…under circumstances…like that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Never. Never!
So, I mark down some of the things. You know, we have two people…left. One is Kasich, he’s…a nice guy. Now, they made this stupid deal…I mean, anybody in business would not have made the deal. And by the way, since making the deal their numbers tanked! It was stupid! It's politicians making deals! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. They're politicians, they're making deals. I mean, how stupid is this deal…? And…while I assume that in ink it, I still say, before the ink was dry, it was violated by both parties, right? Politicians, this is what we have! These are the people that negotiate for us. These are the people that are giving us, and giving away trillions, and trillions of dollars.
This is why we have deficits that are…19 trillion, and it's going to be 21 trillion very, very soon. You know, with that really dumb omnibus budget. And, you look at what happened with that; then he picks Carly. Carly's perfectly nice. By the way, she fell off the stage the other day. Did anybody see that? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. And Cruz didn’t do anything! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. No, it was a…! Even I would have helped her, okay!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS, CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. No, it's true! It’s the weirdest thing. Right!? They just showed it to me coming in, I said, “no, I didn't see it”. And they just showed it to me, and I said, “wow, that's really…cruel!”.
She fell off…she just went down! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…she went down a long way, right!? And, she went down right in front of him and he was talking, he kept talking! He didn't even look like…! That was a weird deal! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS Man! And then they were both talking. She was talking from the back, and he was talking from there…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. They [were] both talking. No, it’s a weird…;
But that was…unnecessary, and it was a bad thing to do. And you know, I said he said a record. [he’s the] First candidate in the history…of this country, who has no path to victory, who can't win, and he picked a vice presidential candidate…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. That's hard!
And you've gotta give her credit for accepting it! She said, “I'll accept it, even though there's no chance of winning”. I mean, that’s…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…a weird deal.
But you know, you have so many different things. And I love seeing all of those people on line! And they were there from…six o'clock, that FOX and CNN, they're all saying from six o'clock in the morning. All that big line, that big, huge line. Thousands and thousands of people. And even here there are thousands of people outside that wanted to get in. You people know real estate a little bit better, congratulations! Look at the people in the front row! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS [That’s] Pretty good, right? Pretty good. Pretty good.
But, I…you know, I look, and I look at the…the…difficulty of politics. I mean…you know, I've been doing this for a fairly short period of time. I've never seen…lying and deception, and all of the things like this! I've been in business, and they’re no angels. And frankly, they're much tougher people. Business is tougher! But…and…and again, they’re not the greatest! You got good ones, you got bad ones, like everything else! But I've never seen lying and deception like you see in politics. It's terrible! It's terrible! It's really terrible…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
Where…where somebody will go out and hear me, and watch me, and watch good ovations, and then…say the exact opposite. You know, where there is, “Trump is going to…do this”; or, “Trump will never build the wall”; or, “Trump loves Obamacare!”.
I mean, I always say…how many people have heard this? “We will repeal and replace Obamacare!”. Then I'm listening to…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…right? Do we…we will repeal and replace it! Right? And then I'm hearing Cruz…that I'm hearing Cruz today, “Donald Trump loves Obamacare. He will…keep it! He will this, and…”. Oh, it's so…! And I wanna take that television, and I wanna smack it! But I can't. I can’t…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS
Oh, and then I heard another good one, “I picked Carly Fiorina! As of Vice President. Donald Trump, on the other hand, will campaign with Mike Tyson!” …–THE CROWD LAUGHS­–…that's true!
Now, I don't know anything, but Mike was nice enough. I don't know, I heard on the internet he endorsed me! He said, “I endorse Donald Trump”. I will say, when you have guys like, the coach, and Fred…and all of the people; and Bobby Knight, such an incredible guy! What an incredible guy! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. What an incredible guy. And so many people! I mean, I'm…really proud, when you think. Uh…16,500 Border Patrol agents. [It’s the] First time they've ever endorsed the presidential candidate. They endorsed Trump…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And Sheriff Joe, and…I mean, it's amazing. It's amazing.
So many of the pastors, and the ministers have endorsed us. It's…uh…it's been…it's been…just…an incredible experience. For me it's been an incredible…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS –…it's been an incredible experience. And great people! I mean, just great people. And, I just…I just wanna say that…you know, having done this now, and having been…for a long time, and having so many friends in Indiana…and Bobby sort of said it better than anybody could say it, and he said, “Trump's gonna be a great president”. [Do you] See? I can't say that about myself. Although I'll say it, because that's what we wanna hear! I mean, I'm gonna bring it back, and we're gonna bring it back! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But he said, “Trump's gonna be a great predident”.
And, honestly, if we win…Indiana, it's over! It's over! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. They're finished! They're gone! They're gone! And if we don't, they'll win it next week, or the week after, or the week after! It’s fine, you know, because…they have no path, whereas I have a very easy path. I mean, we'll win it in the first ballot.
And when I look at these guys going around, and talking to delegates, and buying them…hot dogs, and hamburgers, and hotel rooms…! And this, and that…and…! And they're all playing, just so you understand. They're all playing for the second, third, fourth, fifth…; we're never gonna get there! We are way over, and way ahead of projection, and we’ll have…we’ll do it on the first ballot. But if we win Indiana, it's over!
So…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…and Bobby said, “this way Indiana can take the credit when Trump does a good job”, and I wanna remember that, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I wanna remember that. So, I wanna thank all of the folks, and I wanna thank Bobby Knight, cause man, I'll tell you, he…he was something.
He…we…trekked around all over the place, and he was amazing. And you had to see the love in the room. Uh…coach Keady, same thing. He said, “Bobby was such a great guy”. And, Bobby has such a respect for the coach! But…when Bobby came around, and we went around from place to place, and…people would stand up for five minutes, and they just loved this guy. They like…they wanna win! They wanna win!
He won 900 games…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS–…think of it! Three championships…three championships…it's tough to win those championships! He won three. 900 games he one. And, you know, you…and he won the Olympics, and he won the PanAm[emrican] Games, right? And he had the last undefeated season in college basketball. I mean, that I…and he almost…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND –…he almost had two! And he said, “Donald have you mentioned the one before, cause you know, the season before I lost one game. Say that I screwed up!”, meaning he screwed up.
I said, “coach, I don't wanna say that! How can I said…when you had a…what were you, like 32 and one? And I'm gonna say you screwed up?”.
He said, “no, no. I put in the wrong player. Just tell them! They'll understand!”.
I said, “I refuse to say it. So I said, ‘he wants me to say that he screwed up’, okay?”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Woulnd’t it be nice to have a coach that screwed up and you’re like 32 and one or something like that? Everybody wants that kind of a coach. So, anyways. So, Bobby's been great. I wanna just thank him. I just wanna thank everybody. It's been…an incredible experience for me, and I've learned a lot! I mean, I've learned a lot!
And, you know, one of the things I like to do before I go to an area…and by the way, even your governor treated me…very nicely, I have to tell you. He was under pressure. He was under a lot of pressure…from his…you know, supporters, and from people that put up money for politicians, in all fairness, and…you know, the donors, and the special interests…; and, you're under pressure…[and] he said nicer things about me than he said about Cruz! Well, it’s true, right!? If you think about it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And I like him! I like Mike Pence, but you know, he said nicer things about me than Cruz!
And the…all of the pundits said, “you know what!? I think that was maybe the weakest endorsement in the history of endorsements!”. It's true! In fact at the end, they had a one group [that] had a rerun the tape, just to find out who he was endorsing…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. So, it’s sort of fun. But they’re under a lot of pressure!
You know, I'm self-funding my campaign, so I don't have any pressure, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. I don't have pressure. I'm gonna do what's right for you.
Like Cruz tells you about…uh…Wall Street, and the big bad bankers, and this, and that, and all the stuff…! Now, he didn't put down on his personal…financial…disclosure form that he borrowed a million dollars…from Citibank and Goldman Sachs! He didn't say that. He left it off, which…you’re not allowed to do! You know, that's a big violation. I don't know what's…the…you know, what's the recourse, but it's a big violation.
But, in fact, one of the guys mentioned this morning, that…you know, was sort of debating him out front, “what about Goldman Sachs?”. The guy knew what he was talking about. He left out the million dollars. He didn't put it down on his personal financial disclosure form. And then he'll come and tell you about how he's gonna protect you from the banks.
Let me tell you, Goldman Sachs and Citibank have him totally under control folks, believe me, okay? He may talk, but believe me they have him 100 percent under control. Me!? I'm not taking money so it's very easy, okay? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, what I…what I like to do is, and it's become very depressing, but don't be depressed because we're gonna turn it around. But it is, it's depressing! I asked my statisticians…I have people they do nothing but stats…! …which can't be a very exciting job, right? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I wouldn't want…they love it! They love it! Me!? I wouldn't want that job. But they're good at it. And they get it right from the books. And they said [that] this area…­–MR. TRUMP STARTS READING FROM A SHEET OF PAPER­–…which is a great area, great people…! …has lost one in four manufacturing jobs since 2001, the year Congress voted…to put China…into the World Trade Organization, [a] mistake!
The vote gave China permanent…most…favored…nation…trading status. That makes…that gives them an advantage! Why!? What are we doing? Why? And I…do a lot of business with China, and I love China! China's fine! I made a lot of money with China. They have the biggest bank in the world as my tenant in Manhattan at one of my buildings. [A] Good tenant! [It] Pays the rent on time! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. This is a serious…the bank has 400 million customers, that's a big bank. That means that Citibank. I said to the head of the bank, “how big a you compared to, let's say, Citibank?”.
And they said, “that is like a small…subsidiary”, you know, it's like…–THE CROWD LAUGHS­–…it's true! It's like a little bank, by comparison. But it's my tenant. Uh…I have two big buildings, Bank of America building in San Francisco, and 1290 Avenue of the Americas, it’s one of the biggest buildings in New York, biggest floor plates. And, I got that through China! Not friendly, unfriendly! It was a war! And, it's turned out to be a great deal, with a…wonderful…partner. And we ended up making a fantastic deal. And they buy condos, like they're…uh…like they're…mashed potatoes, from me! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. You understand. Like pancakes! “I'll take one for 10 billion”; “I'll take one for 9…”. [I have/It’s] Nothing against China!
And I'm not angry at China. And I'm not angry at Mexico. And I'm not angry at India, or Vietnam, which is hot as a pistol right now, [it’s] taking a lot of stuff away from us. I'm not angry at Japan! They send cars over by the millions, [and] we give them practically nothing. You talk about a trade imbalance, you're up here…–MR. TRUMP SHOWS WITH HIS OWN HANDS–…we're down like…below that stage. It’s trade imbalance.
I'm not angry at any of them. I'm angry at our…leaders…for being grossly incompetent and no...not knowing…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…right? And not knowing…what they're doing! Because there's no reason for it
So, a few more things. Uh…Indiana's lost 5,000 jobs over a less period of time, manufacturing jobs…; in the last three months, you lost 5,000 jobs, that’s not good, okay? According…[in the] last three months you lost 5,000 jobs. Somebody else would say, “oh, you're doing well”. Great.
According to the Federal Reserve, real median household income in the state of Indiana has declined 10,000 dollars since 1999. That means you're working harder, and you make it less! Some of you have two jobs. I understand it! You know, nobody else understood it. They're all trying to say, “what are we…what…what's going on with Trump!?”. I understand it!
I grew up…you know, my father was a builder in Brooklyn and Queens, and I would work on jobs. And I got to know. People say, “why do you relate so well to like…carpenters, and electricians?”. I mean, I grew up with them! I know them…better! Frankly, I don't like the rich people so much if you wanna know the truth! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Those are the ones I don't like as much, not nearly as much.[MGF3] 
Uh…but look at this. This area lost about 15 percent of its construction jobs since the recession. The city of Indianapolis has lost one third of its manufacturing jobs since 1990. Carrier air-conditioner…now, I've been dealing on Carrier since it announced, and…I guess a lot of you have heard, because…unfortunately, look at all the cameras back there…–MR. TRUMP POINTS AT THE CAMERAS–…they always put my speeches on live television, which is a big disadvantage, cause I have to come up with a new speech every four hours, right? You can't say…–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…it’s true! It’s true! Otherwise they'll say, “he's a very repetitive person”.
W[MGF4] ell, they only do it because of the ratings, but I do, I have to change it up! You know, these other guys, they walk around…they read the exact…same…speech at every single stop, right!? Every single stop, they read a speech, and it's always within 30 seconds of length, and then they walk out! People fall asleep; everyone's sleeping; everyone goes home; nobody votes for them; they’re out of the race! You know…? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY.
Me…!? I don't have any teleprompters, I'm up here all by myself! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Okay? I'm up here all by myself! Even for victory speeches, I saw the other night Hillary Clinton, she's got a teleprompter. “And we will travel…north, and south…and east, and west!”…­–MR. TRUMP TURNS AS HE PRONONUNCES ORIENTATIONS. THE CROWD LAUGHS.
And I would say that she started screaming at the teleprompter, but I'm not allowed to say that, you know why! Now, if she was a man I could say it! But as a woman , ladies, I'm sorry I'm not allowed to say it. She was screaming at the teleprompter, but I will not say it, okay!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Many women told me, “it's terrible what she's doing!”.
And a poll just came out, one hour ago, the Rasmussen poll where Trump is leading Hillary Clinton, okay!? Leading! Trump is leading! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY TO THEN CHANT ‘TRUMP!’ REPEATEDLY. Boy! Oh, we gonna win! We're gonna win.
No, I watch this Cruz guy, “I am the only one…who can win this race!”. You know, he sounds like Shakespeare, right? This is like…everything's always shakes it–…MR. TRUMP MEANS HIS HAND–…even if he's making a simple statement: “I am the only one…!”…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. Right? I always kid! But I…I…unfortunately, I'm telling the truth.
He walks up with a Bible held high, right? Held high, the Bible! Boom! Then he comes over, and he starts lying like nobody I've ever seen…! …–THE CROWD CHEERS TIMIDLY.
But he's…and by the way, and also another poll, [The] Wall Street Journal came out just now! Trump, in Indiana, which is what we care about, although we do love that national poll, I have to say. In other words, winning…Indiana without the rest of it, none of us are too happy.
But in Indiana, Trump is over Hillary 48 to 41! Whoa! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Whoa!
But…but, you know, Kasich, who has not had one negative ad…! And he’s a nice guy. I don't like his eating habits, to be totally honest…–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
In fact, I was eating at a good restaurant today in…in…in Indianapolis, a nice…really nice place, and…the owner was great. And they were serving me food, you know. I said, “turn off all the cameras”, you know, the cameras…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY–…I don't want…I don't wanna eat. But it's true! I always tell my son, “little tiny bites”.
I told all my kids! Ivanka…! Don, Erik, Tiffany…! All…as they grow up, “little, little bites!”. And I see him, grr! …–MR. TRUMP EXAGGERATES MR. KASICH’S EATING FASHION. THE CROWD LAUGHS–…uhg…! I don't get it. And I've never seen a man makes so many news conferences while he's eating! He's always eating! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. He's never standing up having a news conference!
So, when I sat down…I just said, “do me a favor, get those cameras away. I don’t wanna be…”. They’ll say I'm copying him, I don't want that.
But, you know, his…standard line…and Cruz more than anyone. He said, “I am the only one that can beat…Hillary Clinton”. He's gonna get killed! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS–…killed!
So he hasn’t had a negative ad…! And, Kasich hasn't had one ad…negative ad! Because nobody cares! You know, there's…no interest…;
Listen to this. So…I was saying 55,000 ads as of a week ago. Well, it's changed. I've had 60,000…[it’s] hard to believe! Although, if you were me, you'd believe it cause I…every time I see one, and it's all the time…!
I was in Florida, and…I'm telling you…I won Florida in a landslide. But I told my people, “there's no way I can win” …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. I told my people the day before the election, “there is no way I can win!”, because I was there. I own…Doral. And we had this major golf tournament. You know, [A] World Championship, The Cadillac World Championship. Adam Scott won. And I'm…there, and I'm telling you! I…I said to my people, “it's gonna be embarrassing!”. I mean, there's no way I can win! Every single ad in Florida…for weeks, was a negative ad on me.
And they were false ads! Well, 90 percent…95 percent…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Maybe even 95. But they were false ads! So many…so much lies and deception…false! But there were one after another, after another, after another…they had four, or five heads in a row! And my people said, “Mr. Trump, congratulations you're gonna win in a landslide”.
I said, “how can I win!? I got all these negative ads!”. I said, “I'm telling you, I'm not gonna win!”, that's my own insecurities coming out, okay? But I said, “I'm not gonna win!”. And we won by like…more than 20 points. We won in a landslide! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…you know? [We] Won in a landslide!
And then last night, I'm here and I'm watching television. I see all these phony adds! One after another, after another…! You know, “stop Trump”, or “never Trump”, or whatever the hell they call it! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. And they…they formed the alliance in order to…“never Trump”, because…you know why? Because the people putting up the money…own companies, and they do business with China! And they do business with Mexico! And they wanna keep it the way it is, folks, but we’re getting killed in these deals, okay!?
So, they're putting up all this money. One guy put up three million dollars, uh…one guy owns the Chicago Cubs! I'm rooting against that team now. If they own…–THE CROWD CHEERS–…no, no! Think of it  This guy, Rickets or something, you know…I never met them! He owns the Chicago Cub,  he's putting up fortunes…millions of dollars…! I don’t even know the guy! Can you imagine how badly…I do if he knew me!? I’d do even worse, I guess! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I don't even know him! I never…I have no idea who he is! I’d still like them to win, they’re a nice team…okay!
But…but, you know what!? He's putting up millions, like somebody said 3, 4 million dollars…! I say, “3, 4 million for what!?”. I'll do a better job than anybody else, why are they doing this!? The only reason is, people have interest that you'll never know about. And they do bet against the country. And they don't mind when the country gets…loses its jobs. They don't mind what Carrier leaves, 1,400 people go that are great people, moves to Mexico, makes air-conditioned, sells them across the border, no tax, no nothing, makes more money…okay?
And the air conditions aren’t sell for more money! They’re gonna sell for the same price, because they have to compete with Trane. I buy a lot of air-conditions. Boy, do I buy air-conditioners…!?  I buy televisions, and air-conditioners…! I buy a lot. But they gotta keep it competitive! All it is is they’re gonna make more money. They’re gonna let go 1,400 people.
And here's the difference with me: you know, for years you've been reading where the federal government is trying to stop the…tremendous onslaught of companies, that are leaving our country! And that means jobs, folks! It means huge money, and it means jobs. So they say well, “well, we’ll give them low interest loans”. They don't need loans, they got a lot of money!
“We'll give them other things. We’ll give them all sorts of incentives”. They don't need incentives, they don't want incentives! Let's give them a real incentive: every single time…they make an air-conditioning unit in Mexico, and…send it across are now very strong border, they'll pay a 35-percent tax! That’s all! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. That's all! That's all!
And you know what? They'll still make money. But one of two things will happen: either our country's gonna make a hell of a lot of money, cause they're gonna still sell them! Because it may be too late! You know, maybe they've started their plant. It's probably never too late. We'll get them to come back!
You know, if we charge them enough, they'll start coming back! And I tell this to the politicians. “Well, we like free market!”.
Free market’s great! I'm a free market guy! But not when you're getting killed! We're getting killed! I mean, look at…look at your numbers! Your numbers…and you’re doing better than…a lot of states. Not a lot better. It actually surprisese me, when I look at some of these numbers, about…Indianapolis…it’s losing…it’s lost…practically half of their jobs, their…their manufacturing jobs!
Steel! Look at steel! It's being wiped out! Your coal industry is wiped out! And you know, China…is taking our coal. So, China…and I'm gonna open up, clean coal! Clean coal. Okay? We're gonna open up our coal industry again. We’re minors that are incredible people! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
I mean, we have this president that flies to Hawaii in a 747 with the big old engines, spewing stuff in the air…–THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY–…and he plays golf for two and a half, or three weeks. Then he gets on a 740, it’s called Air Force One; [he] comes back, and he has a…a speech on…the carbon footprint, okay? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Give me a break! Give me a break! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And in the meantime, our miners, and our steel workers are being laid off all over the place, kay!? [it’s] Not gonna happen anymore folks, okay? It's not gonna happen anymore! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. [It’s] Not gonna happen!
So, the numbers…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD YELLS ‘I LOVE YOU!’–…I love you too! Where is that? Who is that person? Oh! Stand up! Oh, great first lady! …–MR. TRUMP GIGGLES. THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…thank you. Thank you. That is very nice. Thank you.
So, it's not gonna happen anymore. We're gonna be the smart people now. We're gonna be the smart people. We can't continue…to allow…every nation…in the world to…think of us as fools. And you know the funny thing? They're gonna like us better…when we get smart. They don't even like us!
Look at China: we have rebuilt China! We…they have taken so much money out of our country. They have rebuilt…; when you have a trade…look at the trade deficit, with China! 500…billion…dollars…a year! A year. 500…billion…dollars, okay?
Now, negotiated by fools. I mean, maybe they have a conflict of interest, I don't know, in which case it’d be dishonest, not fools, okay? That would be even worse. But negotiated by hacks [MGF5] political hacks.
I've got the greatest business people in the world! They're gonna go, and make unbelievable deals for us. We are gonna turn it around! We're gonna take jobs back. And you know what's gonna happen? China is gonna have more respect for us. They have no respect for us! They think we're a bunch of dummies, okay? They think we're a bunch of dummies.
Now, I've negotiated a lot with China, I told you. And they come in waves! They don't come with one person! They come with 20 people. Every one of my 180 IQ. And if one makes a mistake, another one, another one…they have it like it's like a catch basin…–MR. TRUMP GIGGLES. THE CROWD LAUGHS TIMIDLY. And we'll have some dope sitting there negotiating.
And then we wonder why, “why we're…we’re doing so badly?”. I got people that are better than anybody! They’re the best in the world! They're very rich people. They don't want money. They don't want anything. They wanna play the chess game, you know, they like it. They wanna play the game!
And you know, those deals are bigger than any corporate deal. A deal like that, trade with China…you could take all your steel companies, everything else, put them together, it's…like a peanut compared to it. These people would love to do it! And they would…they wanna do it…for their ego…they…actually, love…the country! Some of these guys are…you know, not the nicest people, and some are fantastic people!
Carl Icahn endorsed me, [a] great businessman. Other people endorsed me, great business people…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. And we wanna give it to our best! And I know the best negotiators. I know guys that are overrated. I know people that are underrated, that you never heard of, that are better than…anybody! But we're gonna have great, great business people!
So think of China. They've stripped our country. And you know, we owe them 1.8 trillion dollars, right? Does anybody know that? We owe them…on top of…; so they take our jobs, they take our money, and we owe them 1.8 trillion! That's like a magic act in reverse! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I want some of the…magic act, but we’re gonna turn it around!
China has no respect for us. We give them state dinner;  their leaders come in, [and] we give them state dinners at the White House. And I said, “don't do that. Let them come in to negotiate. What are you doing!?”.
I actually jokingly said, “let's take them to a McDonald's, we’ll have McDonald's, and we'll get back to negotiation!”. Seriously, what are we doing!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. What are we doing?  We're honoring…people…;
And again, I get along great with China! I love…uh…they're…they’re all great! I'm just so angry at our…leaders for being so incompetent, and for being so stupid! Okay? For being…so…stupid! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
So, we have rebuilt China. And they've done it to Europe in a much…smaller way. But we have rebuilt China. And…bridges, and…tunnels, and…you've never seen anything like it. You go to China, they have highways like you've never seen. You'll see airports…; and also, you know, you look at other places.
You look at places in the Middle East! You look at places that you've never seen anything like what's going on. We're like a third-world country. And we're the ones that should be at the top! And we're at the bottom.
Our educational system is no good. Out of 30 countries, we're ranked 30th. You have Sweden…; …you have Norway; …you have Denmark; …you have China; …you have Japan; …you have other countries that are all in the top five and ten. We're number 30. And yet, we spend…more per pupil…than any other country…by so much that there is no second place. There's no second place, it's so far behind us. And yet, we're 30. Because we have…this Common Core is a disaster. But it's even beyond that! We're gonna get rid of Common Core, bring it local, and all of that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
You know…I always say that I spent less money in the campaign than any other…candidate, any other certainly major candidate, but I spent far less money. Although I'm in for like 40 million bucks, it’s not peanuts! It’s still a lot of money, right!? But you gotta see these guys…; I mean, Jeb Bush had a thing like 168 million! He's been out of here for months, right!? He was getting nothing! And I wouldn't bring up his name, except [that] he was nasty the other day. They interviewed him, “what do you think of Trump?”. Well, he did call me a phenomena. That…that was the only good thing. Other than that, it wasn't so good.
I said, “what's he saying bad about me? He's out of the race. He should be saying positive!”. Or I wouldn't bring him up. But when they say bad about me, you know, don't we agree? They say bad about me, I say bad about them. Who the hell cares!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But he said nasty things!
He said, “he is not a true conservative”. Who cares!? We wanna straighten out our country! You know, a true conservative!? What's the true conservative!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS VIVIDLY. “He is not a true conservative!”. He always said that, “he is not a true conservative”. And I say, “folks….!”. First of all, I am a conservative. But they wouldn't say I'm conservative on trade, because…a conservative is supposed to want free trade! It doesn't matter how badly you get ripped off…; it doesn't matter that this country is losing all of its jobs, all of its money…; we're third world status…; it doesn't make any difference…National Review, “we will stay true to the core! And we will let other countries continue to rip us off, because we wanna remain…a true…conservative! And we want free trade!”.
But I like free trade too! The problem is we don't have people that are smart negotiating our deals, okay? So…you don't. So therefore…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…we can't do that right now, I'm sorry. Maybe there'll be a time when we can go back to free trade. But you can't have free trade when China…and others, but China is the biggest abuser. China is a…world…class…grand master chess player. And, they're playing against…checker players that are not good at it…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. That's our people. They're world…class…grandmasters! They devalue their currency! Every time they devalue, I just see dollar signs pouring out of the country. They're not supposed to be doing that! But Obama doesn't know what's happening! And, he's…too busy doing other things, including playing golf. And…whatever! And he allows it to happen!
About six months ago, I'll never forget, I said, “well, they'll never be able to devalue again”. That was two years ago. And then they did the greatest evaluation in the last 20 years; six months ago, five months ago. And…a massive devaluation, which meant…“let's take more money out of the United States. We're gonna take more money…our economy's going a little bit bad let's take more money out of the United States”. And we let him get away with it! We can't let that happen!
Just remember. Just remember they're taking that money from us, mostly. They're taking it out of our country! They're taking it out of our high. They've taken it out of our jobs. We’re…we're losing everything. So, we have to fight back!
Now, am I a free trader? Absolutely. Will I allow our country to be ripped off for years, and years to come, because I wanna say I'm a free trader? Absolutely not, folks. Absolutely not! I won't do it! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
And once they hear…–MR. TRUMP GIGGLES–…a week ago, I get a letter from high officials at China. And it was called in, the…Wall Street Journal somebody called me. They wanted a response to the letter. And it was a letter of protest that “we do not like the rhetoric of Donald Trump”. I was so happy! Because they've never complained before! And they’d never complained before! And they wanted a response! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
And my response was, “yes, here's my response. Tell whoever wrote the letter…”…the…Minister of Finance, one of the top people in China; [they] wrote a letter! Sort of a letter of protest, [he] was angry…that, “our partnership with the United States…”…partnership! I don't want that partnership! I want a partnership their works, not a partnership where we're getting ripped for 505 billion, to be exact, dollars! Right? “Our partnership with the United States is in jeopardy”. Well, maybe what better off not having that partnership, that's another way you can look at it! Okay!? …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.[MGF6] 
So…and these eggheads that you watch on television, and believe me, I'm much smarter than they are, okay? Just so you understand. You know, they call them ‘the elite’. The elite! I have a nicer apartment than they do…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I have a nicer plane than they do. They’re ‘elite’? Why are they elite!? We're elite, folks. We're elite. We're all elite, okay? They're not elite…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS. They always talk about ‘the elite’! ‘The elite’…! Half of them, uh…I won't go into it, but very dishonest people.
And some are true believers! And, really, some are true believers. And they're wrong! They're wrong! We can't…afford it anymore. And I tell the story, [the] last couple of times I told this story about a friend of mine.
He's unbelievable! He's dying. He was supposed to have died a year ago. He's just a physically, and mentally, [a] very strong person. He's a…really good guy, [a] tough guy though, [a] really tough. And he was supposed to have died a year ago. And he keeps hanging on! And I call him, every day the doctor told me a year ago, [a] good doctor says, “he's…Mr. Trump he won't be around for…another month, if he's lucky”.
“That's too bad”.
And he's still living! That was a year ago. And I'd say…I…I sort of equated to our country. And I call him, and I say, how [are] you doing!?”
And he said, “I'm okay, I'm doing good! I feel better!”.
I say, “it's amazing!”. I'd say, “I love you! You're so incredible! You're tough, man!”.
I love tough. Coach is tough. Bobby Knight is tough. Fred is tough. People are tough[MGF7] ! And they're good! I mean, it's just…we need toughness! We need a certain toughness, right? [MGF8] …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND AAPPLAUDS. We need a toughness.
But, in a certain way, I equate it to our country! Because our country…is like…we've been abused for years, and years, and years! We've been losing to china for years! We've been losing to Japan with the cars. They send in millions of cars. We send them wheat. We send them nothing, practically. The trade imbalance is massive!
I…I look at what's going on, and I…I sort of equate our country to that. We just keep hanging on, hanging on…but in the meantime you, people, and make it less money, and we just said it! You’re making less money than you were making 20 years ago, 18 years ago, to be exact. And probably 20, [and] probably 25! And working harder!
But I related him all, of a sudden, to the country. How strong, how incredible our country is. To be in a position that we can afford to be abused by everybody in the world like that, and we're still here! It's incredible! How great will we be when we get it straightened out!? And they're gonna…they're gonna be fine! They're gonna be fine with it! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
So, China…is our number-one abuser. And…I…I don't blame them, cause they can get away with it. But China is our number-one abuser. But, what are they doing? They're building a massive…military…fortress…in the middle of the South…China…Sea, right? They’re not supposed to be doing that! They’re not supposed to be doing that! Why they doing that!? They have no respect for a president. They have no respect for our country! They’re not supposed to be doing that!
Now, should we retaliate? The way we retaliate is…economically. I don't think we wanna start…you know…doing anything for that! And then you also say, well, it affects Japan, it affects other countries!
And we defend Japan. And I like Japan! I like the people of Japan. I have a lot of friends in Japan. But we defend Japan. We defend South Korea. We defend Germany. A lot of people didn't know this! I don't you know…did you know we defend Germany? Do you know that we’re defending Germany!? We are defending Germany! We're defending…Japan!
Japan went out and they beat the hell out of China many years ago, right? Japan went in, and did a big number…on Korea! I mean, we're defending…we are defending Japan! And that's okay, cause why should we let them…start building up? But you know what we're losing on these deals? We are defending the world! We're defending Germany, Japan, South Korea…South Korea is…a monster, economically. You want a television? It's South Korea. You want…? Air-conditioner…? You want anything!? You gotta order…the biggest ships are made in South Korea! We defend them!
We have 28,000 soldiers on the border, right? 28,000, between north and south! The maniac, I call him the maniac. And we gotta do something about that. And by the way, China can do it with a phone call, okay? They can do with a phone call. All we have to do [is] say, “[you] gotta do it! [You] Gotta do it folks! You’d better do it!”. This guy's playing with nuclear! It's our biggest problem!
You know, Obama…thinks our biggest problem…is global warming! Can you believe this!? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. No, it's true! I heard it, and I said, “no, no, that's a joke. Who told that joke? That sounds very…was that Jimmy Fallon!?” …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. “Was that Jimmy Kimmel!? Who told that joke!? That's very…”
“No, no! That's not a joke!”. And then I went and he really meant it! Our biggest problem…is global warming…of the nuclear variety…–THE CROWD LAUGHS AND APPLAUDS–…and we’d better be damn careful! We’d better be damn careful! We’d better be very, very careful.
So, you look at what's going on, and we defend all these people! We defend Saudi Arabia! Now, until the oil went down, and they’re still making a fortune, but until they all went down, they were making one…billion…dollars a day. One billion a day! We defend them!
And we have military bases where we pay the rent. We pay rent, okay? Think of it. We pay rent! They probably negotiate, “oh, we’ll give you a good deal. Pay us…what?”. Pay us! We’re…we’re paying rent! What's going on!? How stupid, how stupid are these people!? How stupid…!? A billion dollars a day, and I have many friends in Saudi Arabia! They’re good people…! [I’m] Talking about people buying apartments. I mean, they, seriously, they got so much money [that] they don't know what to do! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
They make my plane look small, I'm very embarrassed! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
They wouldn't be there…honestly? They wouldn't be there for two weeks if we didn't defend them. You look at what's going on with Iran. Iran is now taking over Iraq. Look at the rioting in Iraq, just like I predicted! I'm really good at this stuff! You know, they'll say, “Donald Trump…”, and they'll never…put in…what I said.
For instance they say, “Donald Trump wants Japan to arm, and wants Japan to go nuclear”.
No, I never said that. I said, “I want them to pay us to defend them. And if they won't, perhaps someday they're just gonna have to go it alone, folks! Because we can't continue to be the policeman of the world!” …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
The dishonest press, of which many of those cameras are rolling right now, they're the most dishonest human beings…–THE CROWD LAUGHS. I don't know, Ted Cruz is right up there. These are the most dishonest human beings in the world.
I watched…what I say, and I say it very carefully! I'm like…smart! I say [it] carefully! And I always say, “they have to pay”. I don't wanna make fortunes. I just want…“you gotta reimburse us. You gotta help us out”. We owe 19 trillion, soon to be 21 trillion. “You gotta take care of us”.
Somebody was saying, the other, [a] general was on television. First of all, I general should not be on television. I don't want our generals on television…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS TIMIDLY. I will prohibit them…I don't want them saying things like, “our nation has never been so ill-prepared”. I don't want…even though it's true, I don't want the enemy knowing that! I wanna build it up before they find out! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. No, I don't want them going on television, our generals! Our generals…!
[Do] you think…General George Patton, or General Douglas MacArthur, do you think they'd be on television saying about how weak we are!? …–THE CROWD YELLS ‘NO!’. Number one, they wouldn't be on television, because they'd be knocking the hell out of the enemy! They wouldn't have time, okay?
But I mean, I see…uh…a certain General. I don't wanna mention is his name, cause he's a…high quality guy. He's…getting ready to leave, leave…a…a year ago. And he said, “we are...less prepared now, our army, less prepared now…that at any point…”, and I think he said in our history! And that's a long time! Let's assume in the last 30, 40 years! But I think he said in our history. So, assuming that's true, which I believe it is, I don't want…everybody to know about it.
They did a piece on ‘60 minutes’. They talked about our…nuclear arsenal. Did anyone see that? It was a disaster! Talking about…the phones don't work. The equipment is old. We don't know if anything works. I don't want people to know about it, but we gotta fix it, folks! We gotta fix it! We never wanna use it. We never wanna use it. We never wanna use nuclear. But you know what? There are nine countries right now that have it.
There are other people trying to get it. We at least have to be prepared! I never wanna…no, I'm the one that didn't wanna go into Iraq. You know, a lot of people say, “Trump is definitely the toughest guy of all the candidates”, great, [what a] big deal. I hope I'm the smartest, cause smarter…but the combination is good…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But, “he's tough! He may have…a quick finger”. I have the slowest finger you…you can imagine. I'll be the slowest! Again, that's why I tell, “no Iraq”. We did it.
“Take the oil”. We didn't do it. When we're leaving I said, “take the oil”. You know, if we took the oil, ISIS wouldn't have been able to feel themselves. Do you know, Libya, which is totally hilly…Hillary Clinton…that was her brilliant…thing! I mean, this woman is a disaster, okay!? She's a disaster! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. You know…no, no, she's a disaster.
You know what Bernie Sanders said, [that] she's…essentially not equipped to be president. I mean, you know, they stopped him very…very quickly…–THE CROWD CHEERS. They stopped…they stopped him: “don't say these things! You're gonna give Trump ideas!”. Believe me, I got them already! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS, CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. I got them. I got them.
He said…I mean, he said, “she's not qualified to be President!”. He said that! I said, “tell me she…tell me...? he…didn’t say that? That’s too good to be true!” …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. He said…I mean, look at this sign…now, I've wrote…cuz I want the exact…he said, “not qualified to be president”. Now, that's a big stretch. But he said, “she suffers…from bad…judgment!”. It's true! It’s true! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. E-mails, bad judgment! Iraq, voted yes, bad judgment! Libya, bad judgment! All bad judgment!
So now, what's happened…Libya has great oil…–A MEMBER IN THE CROWD INTERVENES. APPARENTLY SHE’S YELLING QADDAFI!–…Qaddafi. Qaddafi! Well, she wanted…hey, she wanted…she wanted…to get rid of Qaddafi. She wanted to get rid of Qaddafi. And, they wanted to get rid of Saddam Hussein. You know what they had in common? One thing they had in common: they killed terrorists, right?
But look at Libya. Look at Libya. Oil that's so pure…and ISIS has it now. ISIS has it. We don't do anything about it. And the oil that ISIS has outside…of Libya, they’re making a lot of money! We didn't take the oil. We should have taken the oil!
But they let Qaddafi…I mean, why!? Would we have been better off if our people didn't do anything!? They killed terrorists! So, we've gotta get smart! We've gotta get smart, and we've gotta get smart fast. And we have to start investing money, and we have to get ISIS, and we have to get ISIS out, and we have to build our military! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. We have to build our military, which is totally depleted…been depleted! And we have to take care of our vets, who have been treated worse…than illegal immigrants! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
We have to take care of our vets! [We] Have to take care of our vets, [they’re] our greatest people!
So, here's what's gonna happen. Here's what's gonna happen. I mean, somebody gave me a hard time when Saddam Hussein! “Well, he was a bad man!”. I know he was a bad man! But he controlled that region, and frankly, he didn't let happen what's happening now! Take a look at Iraq, turn on your televisions! They're rioting in Iraq! They took over the whole thing! It's a total disaster!
And you take a look at Libya! You take a look at what's going on! Look at the oil that's pouring out, funding wars all over the place, and we don't do anything about it!
So, here's what we're gonna do: you're gonna remember…in five years, and 30 years, hopefully in 50 years if you're young enough, and healthy enough. But you're gonna remember this day. But more importantly, you're gonna remember…tomorrow, cause tomorrow we gotta get out and vote. Tomorrow so important…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Tomorrow is so important.
A guy like Ted Cruz can never do…he doesn't have the temperament! He doesn't have the temperament, believe it or not. A guy like Ted Cruz could not do it. Kasich can't do it! I call him ‘one-in-42’. He's won one race in 42, [and] that was Ohio. And I would have…won if I went there for two more days and campaigned! But they gave me a dirty pole in Florida, and I said, “I'll better say in Florida”. So, I won Florida easily, and…I should have gone there. You know, frankly. You know that story. But I should have gone back to Ohio. I would have won! Then I could have said, “he's ‘o’ for 42”, or whatever the number is, it keeps increasing every week.
But, I will promise you one thing: we will be the smart country from now on, not the dummies, okay? Not the dummies…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Because this is a movement that's going on. We have a movement going on, the likes of which this country…has never seen, they say! Time magazine…many covers of what's going on with the movement. I'm the messenger. This is the movement! And it's a movement like we've never…like we've never seen, like they've never seen!
Bill O'Reilly said the other night, that in his lifetime…this is the greatest phenomena, political phenomena, that he's ever seen what's happened with, Trump and us…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS–…that's a big statement! [He’s a] Smart guy, [a] tough guy…;
And many people have said the same thing. But I say, “we have to win”. And I don't just mean nomination. We’ll beat Hillary. That's why I was so happy with that poll! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Because these guys won't beat Hillary! They won't beat her.
As soon as Kasich gets the first negative ad…I told you, 60,000, something up to now 60,000. As soon as case it gets the first negative ad, boom! As soon as…Cruz gets some negative ads, boom! I wish that 60,000 negative ads…! I mean, one thing you know me, folks. Man, do you know me! But 60,0000? 100,000,000 dollars of negative ads, and I'm beating Hillary on the last polls. And the other ones were tied! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But…but…and I haven't started! Folks…! And I haven't started yet! Don't forget, senators, governor's, top people, smart people…17…! Boom, boom! Walker gone! This one gone! Bush gone…! Low-energy…! …–THE CROWD LAUGHS. Bush gone! All gone! All gone! Smart people! Dr. Ben Carson, who endorsed me, [a] smart guy, [a] great guy. He endorsed me. [A] Great guy. Chris Christie, [a] great guy. He endorsed me! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
But all smart people! And I…I…now, I’m gonna start focusing on Hillary. That's gonna be so easy! It's gonna be so great! It's gonna be so great! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Bad judgment! Crooked Hillary, remember!? Crooked Hillary! Bad judgment! I didn't say it! Bernie called…I….you know, I didn't say it! A lot of people said…a lot of people brought it to my attention! Ben brought it to my attention, other did…! But it was said by Bernie! So, I don't…I can't take any…can I take heat if Bernie said it? …–THE CROWD LAUGHS.
So, here's the story: Bernie said, “bad…judgment!”. And it’s true! Look at the email scandal, that's bad judgment! You’d almost say, “what is the purpose of doing it!?”. It's just her! It's bad, bad judgment! It’s also criminal, by the way, and…a lot of bad things should happen, but we'll find out…–THE CROWD BOOS. We'll find out. It's a very criminal act. A lot of people have suffered greatly for doing much less.
So, here's the story: hopefully tomorrow everybody here, and you'll bring ten people with you, everybody! We’ll go and vote 20. I like that. I like that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And by the way, you think they have the bad seats…–MR. TRUMP PÒINTS TO THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK–…actually, they have the best. You, people, have better locations, and can see better? …–MR. TRUMP `PINTS NOW AT THE FRONT–…but they're gonna be famous tomorrow, because they're behind…you know, you understand…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
They’ll be so famous…! They’ll be out to Hollywood!
But hopefully…you'll be out to vote. And you're gonna look back, and you're gonna say in many years from now, “it was the greatest…vote that you've ever cast”. Because our country will start winning again.
We're gonna win with our military, we're gonna knock out ISIS. [We] have to do it. [We] have to do it. Boom, they're cutting…[we] have to do it…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
We're gonna win with our vets, we're gonna take care of them! We're gonna take proper care of our vets! These are great people! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
We're gonna win with education, Common Core out, bring it local! We're gonna win, win, win! …–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
We're gonna get rid of Obamacare, we're gonna replace it with something absolutely…great, and for much less money…–THE CROWD APPLAUDS.
We're gonna win at the border, we're gonna build the wall! The wall will be built! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. Mexico will pay for the wall, 100 hundred percent! 100 percent! Mexico will pay for the wall. Now they're accepting it already. Now they're just thinking about paying.
The other day they said, “well, maybe the wall gets built”. Well, a year ago they’re saying, “we’ll never allow a wall”. Now they're saying, “we’ll allow [it], but we’ll never pay”. I say they'll pay, you watch.
By the way, remember this: 58…58 billion dollar trade deficit with Mexico, right? The wall’s gonna cost 10 billion. Anybody that's in business, or you don't have to be in business, when you hear those numbers it's real easy folks, okay? [It’s] Really easy. Mexico will pay for the wall, okay? Just remember that…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS.
And…and we're gonna make from the worst trade deals ever made in the history of the world, we’re gonna make great great deals! And we're gonna bring our jobs back to Indiana, and other places in our country…–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. And we're gonna become a dynamic economy again! And we're going to become a great…country again! And what's gonna be folks, it's gonna be America first! Every deal is gonna be America first! We wanna work with people! …–THE CROWD CHEERS AND APPLAUDS. But, it's going to be…America first, and we will make, and I promise, we will make America great again! Go out and vote! Thank you, everybody! Thank you! Thank you everybody!
