[please stand by]

donald trump: bobbie went and called me a year ago. he won the olympics, won the panem games. minde, i really made up my , i never met him, but i know him. he is tough, really bizarre. good combination. that is the country needs. and he calls me up, and i recognize his voice. i was three or four months away. he said, i hope you run mr. trump. you run for president, you are going to make this country great again. and he is an expert on talents. he is talents. and he said, i hope you run.

i have not made up my mind yet. i love your number, and let me call you back if i decide to run. he said, you have my support, commie back. a lot of time goes by, and then i am winning and winning and doing really great. but it is a rigged system, i will not say anymore because i won. now i do not care. i don't care. it is a rigged system, but you have got to knock them out, do not worry about the judges. story.ll, i tell that you knock them out and you do not have to worry about the judges. >> i won by so much. indiana -- mine from

i said who would be a good endorsement? he said while bobby knight would be the greatest endorsement you could get. but i doubt you could get bobby knight. i said i think i can. so i'm sitting at my desk and i'm looking through all this put it under a pile stuff. and i'm sitting at my desk and i look and i called bobby knight and he picks up the phone and we are just about ready to go to indiana, and he goes, i've been waiting for you to call. said that is right bobby, are you going to endorse me? . i'm going to endorse you, i will see you next week. we went into an arena out like this. i will tell you the place like crazy. about a month and a half before, i was 10 points down. then i went once. without bobby.

we were like two points up. then i went to the final 45 days, i stayed there. and i watched his horrible, buty ads done by people -- for the most part, bad ads. theycame to my office, asked me for a million dollars, i said i'm not interested. and then they advertise against me. can you believe that? welcome to the world of politics. so i'm looking at one out after another, and i said to my people, there's no way i can win. spent $9 million or so. they had thousands of these ads in indiana. i called my people i said there's no way. ads, all night of

-- negative ads to drum. anda one in a landslide -- we won in a landslide. it was amazing. and bobby and all th guys they were incredible. that was an amazing endorsement because he is revered in indiana. and outside of indiana they know will bobby knight is, because he so thatally speaking -- was great. then a couple of weeks before that, i won new york in a landslide. and new york is good. the nice part about new york as they know me well. saying never trump? you know why it is never trump? because i'm going to stop the gravy train for all of these people that are ripping off our country. so never trump.

by the way, a lot of these never sayingre calling me up mr. trump we admire you greatly serve me want to join the campaign. i say didn't you do a horrible ad against a weeks ago? you know what, politicians, they can do that. so now it has really caught on and everyone is happy. ago we had two weeks five. we had maryland with, which was unbelievable. pennsylvania,d, where the minors are there. the minors there are absolutely dying for work. and they are great people. they are great people. i don't know if they are as good as the west virginia miners, what do you think? i don't know. i don't know who's better.

they are dam good, but they are great people and dying for work. i was in pittsburgh, and i was around pennsylvania. 71 pennsylvania, we won connecticut, and in connecticut i won everything from wealthy people to the poor areas. womenwith man, i won with . media is the most dishonest group of people. but boy, they are killing me with the women. and i think i'm doing great. every state i have one with women. i wonder if men and women, i have one with rich and poor, highly educated. , we haverican-american one with every category.

then i won indiana. then there was all of a sudden like they just had another. they cannot stand trump winning. and they cannot stand the fact that a person that has never done this politically before, and a person that is self funding his campaign -- i don't .ake the contributions and by the way for the general election, i'm going to help raise money for the party and they will work with us. the democrats are going to raise $2 billion. can you believe that? this is politics. $2 billion. we are helping to raise money for the party, and we are going to get a lot of other people elected with us i will tell you. so it has been amazing folks. it has been amazing.

i really wanted to come here. thanks a lot west virginia. by the way, i have a team of people that were so great, and they were so disappointed that i won earlier. soy wanted to win right now they get credit. i said hey we just pick up all the credits. i'm just glad to be here because i love you people. these are real, real people. you made this country great. remember that. they didn't have ridiculous regulations that put you out of business. they didn't have ridiculous rules and regulations that make it impossible for you to compete. so we are going to take that all off the table folks. and you better do well, and you better compete. and make me proud of you.

so i got a fantastic endorsement. a little while ago. west virginia call association just endorsed me -- coal association just endorsed me. let's put it this way. it was between me and hillary. and we affectionately call her crooked hillary. it was between me and crooked hillary. and you know how long i sat how longtheir own -- it took? about 20 seconds. people. fantastic if i can have chris,.

of energy. we never want to be in a position like we were in before. where we were literally controlled by people, opec and others, but we were literally in the hands of the people. not going to happen again folks. so congratulations. i want you to save your vote. you know you do not have to vote anymore. save your votes for the general election. forget this one. the primaries down. save your vote for the general election in november. and we are going to show you something, and then you're going to show me something. ok. thank you. we will talk a little bit about trade and jobs. we will talk a little bit about the borders. are you big order people? -- big border people? everybody once a wall. we will have the wall. we will have the wall.

we will build that wall. wall"nting "does that wal built i must tell you, besides a fox was on television last night and he apologized, and i accepted his apology. i thought it was very nice. did you see a? -- it? honestly. , i thought it was very, very nice. former president of mexico, and i thought it was very nice that he apologized. that is good. because we're going to have great relationships not -- with

mexico. but we need a strong border. last week i got the endorsement from 16,500 border patrol agent. history that the they have ever endorsed a presidential candidate. that was an honor. i will tell you. very important. the country is in trouble. not only the minors, not only in oal, but i think your industry has probably been hit harder than maybe anybody. but many industries have. the overregulation of our businesses is destroying families, it is destroying jobs, it is destroying businesses. and it is really hurting our country. in a sense it is destroying our country. we're going to change that.

when i came down the escalator , and i came melania 16th, i said come on we have to do it. it is not something i really wanted to do. doing this takes guts. like you have. but, it is a different kind of guys. i don't think i have your guts. i don't think i have that to be honest. doing that took a lot of courage. i have this great company, this great business, this great family. it is hard work. i've been away for a week, and the four speech of the day. it is 28,000 people including

outside folks. the media won't report that there. they won't. and we didn't really have to beer. you didn't really have to be here either because the race is over. but you wanted to be here, and i wanted to be here. but i came down and i talked about basically two things. and illegal immigration. you know what, it was a pot of gold. i get it -- hit a nerve because the country knew how out of control the illegal immigration was. they knew how totally out of control. me they knew mostly from because i been talking about it for years, they knew from me, they knew how bad our trade deals are. we have the worst trade deals may be ever negotiated in the history of mankind.

other than not, they are wonderful deals right. these are the worst deals. let me tell you something. administration of which hillary was definitely a part, she was a part of almost everything. almost i say, not everything. terrible. terrible. i didn't think the people of west virginia thought like that. that is terrible. you should be ashamed of yourself. terrible, terrible people. administration approved what they called nafta. which has single-handedly taken vast amounts of of our businesses in a particular manufacturing businesses and brought them into other countries. i want to tell you, i live in new york, and i know new york in

new york state well. it is a great place with great people. but i toured upper new york state and i went to sarah hughes, -- syracuse, and i went to albany, and we were getting crowds like you wouldn't believe. i was rebuilding after building, and some of these buildings are really big, empty. businesses left years ago. same thing that you are having. businesses left years ago in a move to mexico and they moved to other places. frankly, china took businesses and everything else. the statistical charts. i have these statisticians that love stats. i would rather be a coal miner than a statistician. but they are good. and after about 10 different speeches, in different states, i

realized, they are all the same. i didn't even need my statisticians. because they were saying manufacturing jobs down 50% from 10 years ago or 15 years ago. all the same. the population down. median income way down. many people in this room have not had a pay increase in 18 years. and you are working hard. in some cases to jobs. and you are making less money. it is not going to be that way anymore folks. 18 years, you are working hard on to jobs, you are making less money. not going to happen. nafta, happening is again i think it was probably the worst piece of economic development. these are people that make these

deals that are even take -- either taken care of by the contributors or donors, or they are stupid. it is stupid -- it is simple. they have no common sense. but i think their non-competent. i think they are much smarter. the politicians are not stupid, they are smart. they took care of one of their donors by allowing this deal to happen. he said what do you mean? think anybody would allow that deal to happen. and they took care of their donors. i gave money to the foundation, i think that maybe they will use this property. i didn't think there can use it to fly around in private jets. and a lot of people gave money to the foundation, but some of the money given you take a look,

what was given for the money. the whole thing was a scam. our whole system. let me tell you, our system is broken. it is badly, badly broken. are notn't fix it, we going to have a country left folks. we are not going to have a country. and crooked hillary whether you look at the e-mail, remember this. fanie sanders, and i am no of bernie sanders. although he does have one thing right. offnows we are being ripped entree. that is one thing he is right about here he can't do anything about it, so he has no plan for. but he knows we are being ripped off entree. entree. on trade. i know it are being ripped off, and i will fix it.

but when you look at what is i have been talking 3-4 months ago, i saw that 1400 people were laid off. they announced we are firing these people. ever i went, they had carrier people. they said where my carrier people. the guy was not nice about it. he was not nice. it looked like an upper middle management guide. that the cell phone going. we would be another statistic. it would be happening all over. , makeill move to mexico

their air-conditioning units, of which i buy a lot. i'm a trade person, i buy a lot of different things. they will sell them back to the country. no tax, no nothing. the whole weekend is unemployment. that is all we get. all we get is the destruction of families and people's lives. we get nothing. believe me, i am a really smart guy, i would to the wharton school of finance. unite have to go to high school, we get nothing. everybody in this room knows it. i watch these conservative people. they do not like what i am saying. they do not like it, because they want free trade. free trade only works if we have smart honest people on our side. we do not have that. we are getting beaten by every single country.

everybody that does business with us needs us. over 500 billion dollars per year, trade deficit with china. we are losing $58 billion per year with mexico, that will not happen anymore. we will balance things out. we will make it fair. wall, now iut the like them all. you know, after you win, you like everybody. i like them. so is is you exist on, this one, this when you go is that i love them. they are my best friends. me, ihey will come up to was a donald, you know you will .ot build a wall explain to me why. i'm a really good builder. that's what i do. it is good. we have a president who can rebuild our infrastructure without having across over 10 times that was supposed to cost. you ever see these jobs where

they were going to cost $100 costing and then to $1.2 billion. do you think somebody made a couple of dollars on these jobs? contractorssy these . they are smart people moving into mansions in florida. that is the good life. only in america. we will stop it. we will. we have to rebuild our infrastructure. we will not let that happen. so, here's what i will do. i've been watching for six years. for six years, i have been watching our government talk about how they will not let businesses moving in. they will have low-interest loans. they will not have money. they have a low interest loan, then they will move. they took low-interest financing and then, they move anyway.

for six years i have been watching. this is too complicated and does not work. i will tell you what works, you explain to the head of carrier or nabisco, you are of $2.5 billion. you know what that does to michigan? do know that does to the auto industry? that was two years ago. now, it is working out for them. nobody talked to them from our country and said you cannot do that. there have to be consequences when you do that. all those thousands and thousands of jobs. they will now build it much bigger. they will build it much bigger. are we stupid people? here is a solve the problem. you solve the problem by informing these companies. we'll use the carrier example. every single air-conditioning unit that you make and comes across the board to the souls of the united states, now come with a strong border and not a week

border. every single air-conditioning unit that you make, comes across the border come you will pay 35% tax on that. if you inform them before they leave, they are not leaving. if they leave anyway, do you know what will happen? will make a lot of money for the country. why support, leave this country. go to mexico, build cars, trucks and parts at one of the biggest plans the world. sell those to the united states, pay no taxes, then, leave all of these places empty. that is not going to happen anymore. we are not the stupid people anymore.

[applause] trump: when they sell a car, and that car crosses the border, why not? nobody is stopping them. take that car and drive it over the border. what is happening with that is a disaster. illegal immigration. why make these products, seldom to us, let go of thousands and thousands of great workers, and why should they be able to settle without a tax? i'm a conservative. conservatives hate me for suggesting that you would tax somebody. i love you too. i really do. this is so easy. this is so easy. -- only do itople

by myself. they talk about being presidential. it is not presidential, when the president calls up the head of an air-conditioning company. it is so much fun for me. not take vacations. i'm not like obama where he takes air force one to hawaii stays there for a few weeks and plays golf. back, flies air force one. a boeing 747, then, he has a news conference and talks about the carbon footprint must be saved. give me a break. [applause] it's crazy. you what will happen is the following. i'lls a mr. president, call you back. he will then hire lobbyists. they cannot get to me.

they will hire special interests, they cannot get to me. hillary, they will get hillary on the foreign staff. hillary will pay them millions of dollars. so, what happens is they will call back. we are not leaving the united states. we cannot let them leave. by the way, the one place where we are selling homes is in china. china can use that, but we cannot. here is what we're going to do, we will be the smart people. we will be the really smart

people again. we have rebuilt china. we have a country where the roads, hospitals, the transportation, the airports, they are third world. you go to places in the middle ,ast, you go to chuck -- china you see planes ago 250 miles per hour. you see our trains they go slow on tracks that are 100 years old. we are more like a third world country. we will change it. we will change it. up, i usuallynd say we will leave here, you will go home, you'll start winning. you will vote. i will come back. in november, and vote. that will be the greatest vote you ever cast.

the vote was supposed to be on tuesday. to getcan say stay home twice as many people in november. we have to win. we have to win. we cannot take hillary clinton anymore. we have enough of clinton. was given to us by clinton. that was a clinton deal signed by clinton. it has been the most instructive thing. we cannot take anymore of this stuff. it is another four years of barack obama. you cannot take it. you will have your mind blown 100%. and, what she said, recently, two weeks ago, i asked if she made a mistake. when she says she will close the minds-- the miners in the

, she comes here two days ago, she is begging for your vote. she says she does not really mean it. but, those are her true feelings. those are her true feelings. she did not have a teleprompter for once. that is when she said that. it's why she use the teleprompter. she uses it because she cannot make that kind of mistake. i don't have a teleprompter. it's better that way. it's better. so, here is the story. we all had a good time tonight. considering the subject matter. country is in trouble. the subject matter is bad, but come the subject matter will be good. we are going to make america great again. it is going to be good out there. [applause] i will be here again

before november. we have to take care of the other people outside. can we let some of them in time? let them in. i want to thank them for being here. they probably think this is a recording. here it is though. start winning again. we do not win anymore. i love you too. people are wild here. west virginia. [applause] trump: john denver was a friend of mine. he was a good guy. we do not win anymore. we will start winning again. we will win with our military.

[applause] we will take care of them. they are our greatest people. we will take care of them. they have not been taking care of in many cases, illegal immigrants are taking better care of than our veterans. that will not happen anymore. it is not going to happen. winning with our military. we are going to knock isis out. [applause] we are to take care of our veterans.

our educational system is going to get so much better. it is a disaster right now. we are getting rid of common core. we are bringing in real education. we are going to repeal and replace obamacare, which has been a disaster. we are going to protect and cherish our second amendment. it is so important. we are going to have strong powerful borders. we are going to have the wall. mexico will pay for the wall. believe me. and, we will let people come into our country. we will let a lot of people come into our country, but they are going to come in legally. legally. [applause]

we are going to make great trade deals. we have the greatest business people and the greatest business minds in the world. we will use our great business people to make our trade deals. they are dying to do it. they do not want money. they want toplay, do it. they love their country. some are nice, some are not so nice. i have the backing of the greatest business people in the world. they want to do it. they want to see america be great again. we will take these horrible trade deals. they are made by people that have absolutely no right to be dealing with the top people of china, the top people of japan, these are political hacks. we're going to get rid of them. we are going to make unbelievably good trade deals that bring jobs and money and economy -- economic strength back to our country.
