We have a special site, a special location. We have a neighborhood that at first was concerned but now has embraced us for the most part.
When I build something for somebody, I always add $50 million or $60 million onto the price. My guys come in, they say it's going to cost $75 million. I say it's going to cost $125 million, and I build it for $100 million. Basically, I did a lousy job. But they think I did a great job.
The plan I am proposing today does not involve smoke and mirrors, phony numbers, financial gimmicks, or the usual economic chicanery you usually find in Disneyland-on-the-Potomac.
When I look at all of the things that I see and all of the potential that America has, we have such tremendous potential, whether it's in business and trade, where we're doing so badly.
We're going to make great trade deals.
I did disagree with Ronald Reagan very strongly on trade. I disagreed with him. We should have been much tougher on trade even then. I've been waiting for years. Nobody does it right.
America would have a disaster on trade, and America will have a disaster with open borders.

We have people that are political hacks negotiating our trade deals.
We're going to renegotiate trade deals.
We have to renegotiate our trade deals.
You have to be able to negotiate our trade deals. You have to be able to negotiate, that's right, with Japan, with Saudi Arabia.
In America, we have the greatest businesspeople in the world. We have to use them to negotiate our trade deals.
