We owe $20 trillion, and we're a mess. And we've spent $6 trillion in the Middle East, according to a report that I just saw.And it's politicians like Secretary [Hillary] Clinton that have caused this problem.

I was a businessman. I was a real estate man and a businessman. That was the first time I think that question was ever even asked of me. That was long before the war took place. Joe Scarborough just released something yesterday more on point, much nearer. He put out a tweet saying that you know, "Trump is right, look what he just said." So you have to take a look at that. But regardless. The war in Iraq was a disaster. It was probably the worst thing. If you look at the Middle East now, all started because of that horrible decision to go into Iraq.

We have to stop our jobs from being stolen from us. We have to stop our companies from leaving the United States and, with it, firing all of their people.

We now have only 31 brigade combat teams or 490,000 troops. And only one-third of combat teams are considered combat-ready. That's not good for our country. I actually don't even like saying it because plenty of countries are watching us right now, but we'll get it shaped up very quickly.

Yet we didn't fix anything. Our roads are bad, our bridges are bad, our tunnels are bad, our schools are bad, our hospitals are bad.

We don't have to make toys that are coated with lead paint in China. We can make good toys in Alabama and North Carolina.

I will say if John Podesta said that about me and he was working for me I would have fired him fast .
