“HISTORIC WIN FOR TRUMP”

Video transcript 8:29

Total victory, amazing, amazing. 30 points on top, the fake news against him, half the Republican establishment, the judicial system. He's been arrested, and he wins by 30 points. I think it's totally amazing. I feel very, very good about the future, don't you? And look at who's gone. Basically everybody, all right? How many? Pence is gone. Christie and the rest of them now, Nikki and Oran. More on them in a moment. Can we see the margin? It was what? 51% to 21% to 19%. Look at that. How many points is that? 30 points. A margin of 30 points Donald Trump won by. That is just incredible. It is the ultimate political achievement. One of them. I mean, they should be writing books about this, but I notice everybody wants to move on. Oh, the story is now New Hampshire. New Hampshire, New Hampshire, New Hampshire. He broke records, okay? The last guy to beat the competition by, well, this was a record at one point. George W. Bush in 2000 beat somebody by 10 points, and he became a juggernaut. There's no stopping Bush. Let's see, after 10 points, Bob Dole in 1988, they were swooning when he beat, forgot who he beat, oh, I know, George H.W. Bush, who actually came in third place. Look, it's a big deal. It should be maximized, not minimized, and how do they do it? Well, a lot of different ways, okay? There's a lot that goes into politics, but I'm gonna talk about what I could see, all right? With my own eyes, my ears, Donald Trump went out there and talked to the people and did it relentlessly. Now, oh, he didn't go to Iowa as much as he should have, or as much as the others. Well, number one, he doesn't have a problem with name recognition, right? We know who he is. Whether the speech is in Texas or Nebraska, it really doesn't matter. And he could actually fill an hour and a half with policy ideas, with detailed and sometimes funny critiques of his opponents, the media, back to policy, his record. You know, other candidates, Republican and Democrat alike, they can't do that. And I don't think they wanna do it. They have a crutch, kind of like props. Check it out. - It was my mother, Catherine Eugenia Finnegan-Biden from Scranton would say, "Why not hush up "and take any questions y'all have?" Fire away, raise your hand. - I'll take questions from Republicans. I'll take questions from Democrats. I'll take questions from independents. That's why I do them. I've done them for months. I will take questions from every person. - All right, that's nice, but you know, you're leading and there's something about telling people, you know? This is where I'm coming from, I don't know. There's a little bit too much reliance on, let me talk to you, because sometimes they don't have that much to say, it's all about money, it's all about perks. Trump, his average event, how long would it last? 90 minutes, and you know what? Those events were full of policy, all right? I mean, this stuff, what does Biden talk about? He talks about January 6th and how we gotta be afraid of MAGA, okay? Look at this, this is, these are real issues that affect real people. All right, and when he wasn't on the stump, he was making those videos, which are very effective. - We're headed down a very dangerous path. When I'm back in the White House, I will immediately unleash energy production slash regulations like I did just three years ago, and repeal Biden's tax hikes to get inflation down as fast as possible. - You know, it's substance. Far more substance than the media want to engage in. It's all who endorsed who, and oh, what was the fundraising total last month? And all that kind of stuff. This is about ideas. And it reminds me of another very successful Republican president when he was running for president. - To preserve our peace and our freedom, we must maintain a margin of safety. Not numerical superiority in arms and armament, but a margin of safety that is a combination, a balance of a strong economy, mutual respect and unity among our great allies, and a revitalized, up-to-date military capability. History has taught us only too well. The tyrants are tempted only when the forces of freedom are weak. - Very simple, straight to camera. Ideas, not fooling us with a bunch of gimmicks or anything like that. Reagan did it, Trump does it. This new generation, the younger generation, Nikki Haley, likes to brag about how young she is. How about just telling the truth, Nikki? Try that, that's good, no matter how old you are. (audience applauding) - I can safely say, tonight, I will make this Republican primary a two-person race. (audience cheering) - What is that? Two-person race? Well, you came in third place. She came in third place, right? Yeah, behind us, Antis, it was close, but there she is, all the way down, two-person race. I don't know, I think that's kind of unfair. I know that Beltway tells you all this stuff about the amount of money that Ron spent and all that. Let me look at the map, the big map. How many counties did Trump win? 98 or so? And one county for Nikki, she wouldn't buy one vote. I would be polishing my quitting speech, okay? I think she should, well, anyway. There is still New Hampshire. Ron DeSantis did not have a great night, all right? I know that. Let's face it, he's just not good at campaigning. I don't know what it is. If I went to Harvard and Yale and Princeton and Oxford and all those places, I would have a bit more confidence on the stump, and I wouldn't be relying on this kind of trickery. - Thanks for coming out to caucus. I'm proud to have visited all 99 counties in Iowa, listening to your concerns, and answered your questions. We're doing all 99 counties in Iowa, 'cause this caucus demands that you earn it, and you gotta go meet the folks. We did the 99, now we need caucus night the victory. God bless. - Turns out going to all 99 counties is a waste of time. You don't have to do that anymore with technology. You know who does this stuff? Chuck Schumer, Chuck Schumer. This turned me off to the whole see every county in the state thing. - One of the things I'm best known for in New York is my commitment to visit all 62 counties every year. This year we celebrated our silver anniversary, the 25th year of visiting every one of the 62 counties. - Who cares? I've been in New York for, I was born here, I've lived here a long time. I don't know how many, 63 counties, 62 counties, can I see the counties? I don't recognize any of them. I know my home county, I know New York City, I know Suffolk, I know about six upstate counties. People just don't look at the world this way, the way politicians do. And in Iowa, I bet it's the same way. People tell me, oh no, you don't know Iowa. We're not like that, we know all, nobody does. Nobody does, it's not a big deal. Hey, this is a big deal though. How the people of Iowa think about issues. Not all 99 counties, let's take a look at this. They call these entrance polls. 66% say Biden was not legitimately elected in 2020. I have concerns about the fairness of the 2020 election. You're allowed to do that. And maybe if they had, well, not rejected some of those cases based on flimsy standing issues, it could have been more adequately aired and people would feel more confident. But how about that for a number? Next please, 40% say immigration is the most important issue. Gotcha, totally. And 35% say the economy is the most important issue. We heard almost nothing about January 6th. Nothing, no one's interested. Everybody knows, everybody's finding out what really happened. All right, New Hampshire is next week.
