RE: Donald Trump in South Bend, IN

_____________________________________________________________

Event Details: Donald Trump rally at Century Center in South Bend, IN on May 2, 2016.

Attendees/Audience: Trump said 8,000.

Press: Livestream captured via Right Side Broadcasting

Summary of Event: A few preliminary speakers including former Notre Dame basketball coach and ESPN commentator, Digger Phelps. Trump ran through his usual talking points. Mentioned how he won with the less educated in NY. Also said,  “I started talking about the Muslim problem. It’s a problem and we have to talk about it.”

Key Points:

11:15 Trump on

Supposed to be 3,000 people in this room, 2,000 in the other two rooms. They said we only had 1,500 people. Start counting them up, we have a lot of people here. The press are so damn dishonest. Outside there are 1000s of people that couldn’t get in the rooms.

12:58 I know so many people in Indiana. We caught Ted Cruz in so many lies. He’s Lyin’ Ted. Almost worse than the press. A new poll came out a few hours ago, Rasmussen, and I’m beating HRC. And I haven’t even started yet. We started w 17. Like Carson, who really did well. Christie, great guy who endorsed me. A lot of people are endorsing. Falwell. So many ministers and pastors.

14:22 In NY we won with women, men, but especially the women made me feel good. We didn’t only win with women, we really won with women. We won with everything. We won with the highly educated, we won with the less than educated.

15:18 If we win in Indiana, it’s over folks. Then we focus on HRC.

16:22 We’re going to make America great again. It’s going to be America first. At Trump rallies, it’s the safest place you can be. We look out for each other, look out for everybody. We were in Costa Mesa, people were burning the American flag, outside. They are agitators. Many of them are professionals. New poll in CA says I’m leading 55-20.

17:55 Only thing that Cruz can say, with his Shakespearean aha haa...but online they had these guys debating, they know, you’re lying. Mike Tyson said he’s voting for me, and the next day he said Mike Tyson is my vice president. Where did it come from? That I wanted to raise taxes by 40%? I’m giving by far the biggest tax cut running. Especially for the middle class and business class. One criticism is that I’m giving too much. You listen to this lying guy...these politicians are really bad.

19:50 Started w million dollar loan, built into greatest assets, that’s the kind of thinking we need in this country. Need to bring country back. World is ripping us off. China, Mexico, Japan, Vietnam. If you name any country they are beating us. We will start to win big league.

20:44 Cruz gets up and says Donald Trump loves Obamacare. Wants to take it to the next level. He’s such a liar. Marco Rubio called him a liar. A Senator calling a Senator a liar. Said Donald Trump said he won’t build a wall. We’re going to build a wall. Don’t even worry about it. We’re going to stop drugs from pouring in and poisoning our children and other people. I think Cruz is crazy. Lyin Ted doesn’t have the temperament to do this. He’s choking like a dog.

23:33 I say give me the statistics on various places. I have so many friends that love me. No politician can fix it. They’re all bought and sold by the special interests. They’re not stupid, given so much $, not actually stupid, making deals. Donors tell them what they want. Carrier leaving IN, it’s been in every speech. Little did I know, I’d be in IN. The coaches were so great to endorse me. Bobby Knight just called, he’ll be here tomorrow. Back in June, Bobby called and said I hope you’re going to run. When I was talking about illegal immigration I was getting killed in the media. I had to do it. We started talking about Paris, then I started talking about the Muslim problem. It’s a problem and we have to talk about it.

28:30 Cruz got beaten so badly in NY. On Tuesday won all 5 in a landslide. We’ll beat her in a landslide. One of my political guys said, “we’re going to IN...could you get Bobby Knight?” I said, “Possible? I’ve got his number.” He’s been so incredible. Said some things that are really true. I’m going to work so hard to be great for you people.

30:00 $58b trade deficit w China. We have a deficit w everybody. Now they want to make a new deal. Who approved NAFTA? Kasich, one of the deciding votes.

30:30 Bobby won 3 world championships...of college. Had the last undefeated season. He’s a winner. He said for the people of IN, if we win, it’s over. Then I don’t have to worry about Lyin Ted Cruz. We don’t have to worry about Kasich, who is 1-44. I was given a dirty poll, stayed in FL instead of OH. In popular vote, I’m millions ahead of Cruz.

32:34 This system is so sick. In LA, I win there. And I got hardly any delegates. I’m saying what’s going on? I’ve only been at this 9 months. What kind of a system? I’m proud of, no one’s ever complained. I only realized, in CO and it showed Trump was going to win, so let’s take the vote away from the people. The bosses will always pick a Senator. Until 18 months ago, Ted was a citizen of Canada. Bobby Knight said, “It’ll be so great. Because Donald Trump will be a great president. If IN vote for him, we will put him over the top and he can focus on HRC.” Lou Holtz just endorsed us. Really good guy. We have everybody, so many great endorsements. Border patrol people endorsed me, Sheriff Joe…

35:35 Either have to have a country or don’t have a country. Can’t have a country without borders.

37:30 I spent the least, got the best result. Here’s the other thing, I’m self funding. Not controlled by the same people controlling Cruz, Hillary.

39:15 I won em all, then won FL in a landslide. You can’t get 50% against 15, 16 people. Yet I’ll get 36, 38, 42… THey are dishonest. It’s hard to break 50% when you have 3 people. Yet in NY I almost got 60%. In PA, I won every single county. In Delaware, Connecticut. They’d always say, he can’t get 50% and Jeb would say I’m not a true conservative.

41:00 I believe in free market, but you can only have free market when you have smart people representing you. You can see what free trade has gotten. Bill O’Reilly said this is the biggest political phenomena he’s seen in his life.

43:15 I’m not buying from Carrier anymore. I’m a free trader but it isn’t working. We don’t have the smart people. NAFTA destroyed our country, large parts of our country. NAFTA has been a disaster. What it’s done to New England, New York state. Bill Clinton signed it. TPP will be worse than NAFTA. The document is 6,000 pages long. Every one of those countries has read every word, and our guys have never even read it I guarantee it. All it is, is for other countries to suck the blood out of the United States. Lyin Ted Cruz is in favor of it. Single biggest advantage these countries have is monetary manipulation. China will later join and come in through the back door on a later date.

45:20 Cruz made sure there’s no language to make sure there’s no devaluation. If you look at Jeff Sessions, Cruz’ all-time most favorite Senator, he endorsed Donald Trump! This will make NAFTA look like a baby. We should make agreements one on one, if they don’t treat us right we’re pull the agreement. Those guys are studying it and no one from our group has read the thing. If someone treats us well we’ll have a trade agreement. I don’t want to be tied up. Nobody knows what the hell is going on. Bad countries gets the benefit of what the good countries are getting, so everyone is taking advantage.

48:20 I was centerstage at every debate and I won every debate. Every poll had me winning, Drudge...he was a great debater. When Ted debated in HS, no one interrupted him. I interrupt. I started at 5, went up to 11. Karl Rove is a moron. He still thinks Romney won. He got wiped out. I backed him and I backed McCain. I said this time we’re doing it ourselves.

51:10 Someone shot and killed by immigrant...someone raped and sodomized by illegal immigrant…

51:30

Who cares about personality? No one respects women more than me. Women are looking for security in our country. Remember Hillary’s ad...she was sleeping on Benghazi. She wasn’t awake. Polls showing great, I’m doing amazing. Then you have a thing called Paris, hundreds of people hurt so badly their lives are ruined. Then you had San Bernardino...radicalized couple, killed people who gave them a baby shower. If you had guns on the other side...it would have been a whole different story. It may never have even happened. If these people had found out there were guns there they may not have even gone there. We’re going to take care of our 2nd Amendment. They’re chipping away.

53:48 We’re going to take care of our people It’s going to be America first. Horrible omnibus budget. Funds ACA, Syrian refugees, funds illegal immigrants coming in. Obama is a horrible negotiator except when it comes to negotiating with the Republicans.

55:24 It’s been such an honor. I’m going to try to stop by the other 2 rooms. Hopefully you get every friend you have to vote. You’re going to remember this evening. Thank you. You gotta remember this evening. Good evening with a bad subject. We’re going to bring our jobs back and not let people leave so easily. You’re going to remember the vote you cast tomorrow. When you look back… I think I have younger people than Bernie… His system is rigged to, only the Republicans have rigged it much more sophisticated.

57:20 If we have to suffer, Cruz will lose in the biggest landslide in history. When they get hit with their first negative ads it’s over, us I think we’re immune to it. It’ll be the single greatest vote you ever cast. We’re going to knock the hell out of ISIS. We’re going to take care of our veterans. Get rid of Common Core, win on education. Repeal ACA and come up with something so much better and less expensive. We’re going to save and protect our 2nd Amendment. Build a wall and have Mexico pay for it. People are going to come in legally. We are going to make unbelievably good trade deals. We have the greatest negotiators, not going to use political hacks. They’re bought off. You’ll look back and say that’s when we started winning again. You’re going to say, it’s too much winning I can’t take it. I’m going to say I don’t care.
