We're way up on Hillary or three points up on Hillary. And some good polls in Indiana. So we'll see what happens.

To me, it's already started. Rasmussen just came up, three points up on Hillary. Just came up a couple of minutes ago. I'm three points up on Hillary Clinton. And I haven't even started yet. I think we'll have a great campaign.

You're right, I win against her in Indiana, but the new poll came out where I'm beat Hillary Clinton by three points and I haven't even started on her yet. We've had a number of polls come out over the last week where I'm tied with her. Now they're coming out that I'm winning. Ted Cruz would lose to her so badly, it would be a wipeout. He would have no chance against her. The new polls are having me up now on Hillary Clinton.

Notes:

>> There's been a lot of talk about a week ago, and it's hard to believe it was a week, but it seems a lot longer, we were talking about this alliance, and it wasn't an alliance, it was a deal. It was an agreement. Hold on one second. I'm being told this is new video in. Rick, you're watching it along with he for the first time here. Donald Trump in Indianapolis. Of course, there for one of his events today. He's at Shapiro's deli, the MSNBC team was there last week, too. Let's take a listen.
>> Yeah, let's sit down.
>> How you feeling today?
>> I feel great. I mean, it feels really good. We just had a good poll come out. The Rasmussen poll, I guess you saw that. We're way up on Hillary or three points up on Hillary. And some good polls in Indiana. So we'll see what happens.
>> Do you think Indiana will put an end to --
>> I think it should. I really do. I have a great relationship with Indiana and the people. We have a lot of friends here and I think we're going to do really great.
[ Inaudible ]
>> Yeah, his endorsement was a very weak and it was very good for me. He was very nice, the governor. He's under a lot of pressure from his donors and I fully understand that. And I think what he said about me was nicer than what he said about Cruz. And you know, Bobby knight has been so incredible. Plus, we have some other ones today. We have a couple of big rallies later. And we have some unbelievable endorsements coming.
>> Are you surprised at all that Carly Fiorina being a part of his ticket hasn't moved the needle a lot?
>> No. Not really.
>> Mr. Trump, [ inaudible ]

[2:09:41 PM]

General election contest,
[ inaudible ]?
>> Yeah, we really have. We've beaten all of these folks, and Indiana is very important. If I win, that's the end of it. Otherwise, we have to wait until the following week and we'll see. I think Indiana is going to be great. We are having such popularity here. And having the endorsement of Bobby knight and so many others has been terrific.
[ Inaudible question ] No, I haven't, not at all. I don't know that it matters. The people I've been reaching out to. But I haven't been talking about the -- a lot of people are going to endorse me, but frankly, I love the Bobby knight endorsement. It meant so much to me. Because he's tough, smart, and knows how to win. That's what our country needs.
>> Mr. Trump, what happens
[ inaudible ]?
>> We'll have to see. Look, I feel great, we're having by far the biggest rallies that they've ever had in Indiana. And we're having a great time. We've really hit a chord with the people of Indiana. We're going to keep companies from moving. Carrier air-conditioners of the world are not going to get away with what they did. I think they're terrible. I think you'll see great results. I've been talking about carrier ever since they announced. I've been talking about it for months.
>> To me, it's already started. Rasmussen just came up, three points up on Hillary. Just came up a couple of minutes ago. I'm three points up on Hillary Clinton. And I haven't even started yet. I think we'll have a great campaign.
[ Inaudible question ]
>> Well, they have no path to victory. I'm millions of votes ahead of both of them and hundreds of delegates ahead. And in the votes, I'm going to be in a record this week. I'll be in a record, an all-time record, in the history of the Republican party for votes. Which does mean a lot. And that's very exciting to me. Don't forget, there's a lot of states left. And in the history of the Republican party, I'll have the all-time record.
>> Do you still think Mike Tyson got a raw deal when he endorsed you?

[2:11:44 PM]

>> I don't know anything about it. I heard he endorsed me, I don't know anything about his trial, I really don't.
>> Why was Bobby knight so enthusiastic to endorse you?
[ Inaudible ]
>> I think Bobby knight's enthusiasm is that he wants to see Indiana and the country win again. And he's an amazing competitor. He's a really smart guy and a really tough guy. And Bobby knight, the reason it was so enthusiastic, he wants to see the country win again. So and he knows we're going to win. If I'm involved, we're going to win and bring back our jobs and we're not going to lose jobs like we're losing right now, because everyone is living our country and that's sad. Okay?
[ Inaudible ] You with us? Oh, okay.
[ Inaudible ] You're right, I win against her in Indiana, but the new poll came out where I'm beat Hillary Clinton by three points and I haven't even started on her yet. We've had a number of polls come out over the last week where I'm tied with her. Now they're coming out that I'm winning. Ted Cruz would lose to her so badly, it would be a wipeout. He would have no chance against her. The new polls are having me up now on Hillary Clinton.
[ Inaudible ] Very good. Good grandmother.
>> There you see Donald Trump in Indianapolis at the famous that picture re's deli. MSNBC was there last week, Ted Cruz did some campaigning there, as well. And we heard him in the span of about a minute, name-check Bobby knight three different times. He addressed the endorsement of governor pence of Ted Cruz,
