President Donald Trump sent a message to the elite and hostile press when he skipped the White House Correspondents Dinner Saturday night and shared a rowdy love-fest with his supporters … in Michigan.
Here are the top nine highlights from the night:
Trump on the wall: ” We are going to build the wall, we have already started”
“Are you watching that mess that’s going on right now with the caravan coming up? Are you watching this? And our laws are so weak, they are so pathetic, given us to by Democrats, they are so pathetic, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer — and let me tell you, we’ve gotten Mexico to work with us on stopping a lot of what’s pouring in, but we have the worst laws anywhere in the world. We don’t have borders. We’re going to build the wall. We’re getting it. We have already started.”
Trump remains silent for several minutes after someone collapses at rally
“A doctor, please? A doctor, please? Take your time. Take your time, darling. Pres. Trump: Take your time. Take your time.”
“Pres. Trump: Those are the people we love. Those are great people. Right there. And the doctors, thank you, doctor. Great job. Amazing. What people we have. What people we have. So, we have to keep going the way we are going.”
Trump: “We want to take people in based on merit”
“Those are the people we need in our country right now. We need skilled people. And when people come across the border we want to take them in, but we want to take them in based on merit, not based on a lottery. Lottery, lottery. We want them to come in based on skill and based on merit so they can love our country, they can help our country, they can do things for our country, not come in based on some random lottery system. And that will happen. It’s all happening.”
Trump: “We are not pushovers anymore!”
“President Trump: No, it will be fine. Blame the people who used to stand here with much smaller crowds. Blame your American president and your American representatives. But it’s not happening anymore. We are respected again as a nation. We are not the patsies or pushovers anymore. By the way, speaking of not being a Patsy or a pushover.”
Trump: “No wall…No choice we will close down the country”
“We have to have borders, and we have to have them fast, and we need security, we need the wall – we’re going to have it all…and if we don’t get border security, we’ll have no choice: We’ll close down the country.”
Trump says he knows things about Tester that would make sure he is never re-elected
“We had a very interesting thing happen over the last few days. Senator John tester of a really great place, Montana, who voted by the way in favor of sanctuary cities, who is weak on the border, didn’t vote for tax cuts. He took a gentleman who is a truly high quality human being, and what they said about him, what they said about this great American Dr. Ronny Jackson, an admiral in the Navy. He served three presidents, President Obama said he was fantastic. President Bush said he was fantastic. I say he’s fantastic — this is a high quality individual like they would love in Montana. And tester started throwing out things that he’s heard. Well, I know things about testing that I could say too.”
“I know things about tester that I could say too. And if I said them, he would never be elected again.”
Trump on Kanye: “In all fairness Kanye gets it”
“In all fairness, Kanye West gets it. He gets it. And he saw that. When he sees that African-American unemployment is the lowest in history, you know, people are watching. That is a very important thing he has done for his legacy. It’s a very important thing. But Hispanic unemployment, lowest level in history. Women, female unemployment, lowest level in 18 years. And wages are going up for the first time in many, many years.”
Trump on Comey: ‘I did you a great favor when I fired this guy’
President Trump: “Comey is a liar and a leaker. You know, I did you a great favor when I fired this guy. I did you a favor. Because when you look at what was going on at the top of the FBI, it is a disgrace and everybody in this room understands it. The lovers, the two lovers, right? Lisa and strzok. Lisa and Peter. The two lovers. What they said. What was going on. Look how many of those top officials were fired or removed. And they should be out of here.”
Trump does his best Maxine Waters impression. The only thing missing …
“We have to keep the House. Because if you listen to Maxine Waters — ”
“She goes around saying, ‘We will impeach him! We will impeach him’” he mocked. “Then people said, ‘He hasn’t done anything wrong,’…’Oh, that doesn’t matter, we will impeach the president.’”
