I think running for president causes more stress.

We have an amazing, strong, powerful [Republican] party that truly does want to see America be great again, and it will see it. And it's going to see it a lot sooner than you think, believe me.

We'll be submitting healthcare sometime in early March [2017], mid March, and after that, we're going to come up, and we're doing very well on tax reform.

o, I don't want to say it's mine. Certainly, I'm leading, there's no question about that. But we have got a long way to go.

In 2009, pre-Hillary, ISIS was not even on the map, Libya was stable, Egypt was peaceful, Iraq was seeing really a big, big reduction in violence, Iran was being choked by sanctions, Syria was somewhat under control. After four years of Hillary Clinton, what do we have? ISIS has spread across the region and the entire world. Libya is in ruins and our ambassador and his staff were left helpless to die at the hands of savage killers. Egypt was turned over to the radical Muslim Brotherhood, forcing the military to retake control. Iraq is in chaos. Iran is on the path to nuclear weapons.

Not only have our citizens endured domestic disaster, but they've lived through one international humiliation after another, one after another. We all remember the images of our sailors being forced to their knees by their Iranian captors at gunpoint.

When I declared my candidacy, I knew what bad shape America was in. And believe me all you have to do is look at world events. All you have to do is look at the $1.7 billion that we sent to Iran in cash. In cash. All you have to do is see the way ISIS was created in the vacuum left by Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama out of Iraq.
