The left can't wait to condemn this country. The left can't wait to tell stories of how we have, I don't know, just made messes of things, as their justification for chopping us down to size and for disqualifying us superpower status. We haven't earned it. We've built our nation on the backs of slaves and other discrimination and so forth.

We had 600 ships, a 600 ship Navy under [Ronald] Reagan. We're down to 200 now [in 2016].

I think Donald Trump is a preeminent multitasker, can handle multiple things at one time, and when he's committed to doing something, nothing stops him or gets in his way.

Hillary [Clinton] wins in a landslide, [Donald] Trump has no coattails, the Democrats are gonna win the Senate, they're close to winning the House back, they're gonna keep the White House for three terms. It's gonna be nirvana.
