“I never really thought I would do this. I said let’s run for president and look what happened. Part of the reason it happened is you and my message having to do with you,” Trump said while pointing to a group of blue-collar workers who were visiting the White House.
“And other messages also. Security, military, the wall, the border. A lot of good messages. This is one of the most important.”
