Opening comments:
- I have the best temperament
- I'm the only up here that said "Don't go into Iraq, don't go" (total lie)
- Our country doesn't win anymore
Do you have a red line with North Korea?
- I think we have a President who is totally incompetent and doesn't know what he's doing. Our country is going to hell.
- We have had trillions sucked out of our country by China. They should take care of the problem (North Korea)
You said you want to repeal health care but you want everyone covered:
- We are going to repeal Obamacare and replace it with something SO much better
- We're going to get a plan where everyone competes
- We're going to take care of people who are dying on the street, we're going to take care of those people
You were quoted as saying you love eminent domain:
- Eminent domain is an absolute necessity
- You need eminent domain
- When eminent domain people get a fortune for their property
- I didn't take the property (of an elderly woman on the strip in Atlantic City) the woman ultimately didn't want to do that. Gets a bunch of boos and spends a minute complaining about not getting enough tickets for the debate.
Christie says "ask him how" he's going to create jobs:
- I bring bring jobs back from China, Japan, and Mexico. I'm going to bring them back fast.
- TPP is going to be a disaster.
- Under my tax plan - we're the highest taxed country in the world - under my plan we cut taxes for not only the middle class but corporations. We're going to bring back trillions of dollars that are offshore and in my opinion they're much higher than that.
You have said you would vigorously defeat ISIS, how and please be specific.
- Four years ago I said bomb the oil and take the oil. I still stay the same thing.

What would you do in those cities in the middle of fighting with suffering people?
- Take away their money and they will last about a year, they'll become weakened quickly
You said you would bring back waterboarding:
- People are chopping off heads, I would bring back waterboarding and a helluva lot worse
On dealmaking:
- A good dealmaker will make great deals
- A good dealmaker would not have made the Iran deal
- Congress - you have to get 'em in a room and make a deal, grab em, hug em and get the deal done
How would you motivate the electorate?
- I'm creating a movement, we will galvanize the people. How she gets away with the email stuff, I don't know how she runs
- We will win it and win it by a lot
How do you bridge the divide between BLM and police?
- The police are mistreated and misunderstood. Minorities respect the police. We need more respect for the police
I did ask about bridging the divide...
- Everyone sues. You have to solve the problems and weed out the problems.
Should families be able to raise money for ransom?
- You cannot or you will have many, many more James Foleys.
- I raised $6 million for the vets
- There is tremendous waste in the veterans administration
Closing statement:
- Our country doesn't win anymore. If I'm elected President we will win and we will win and we will win
