Trump, in Ohio, refers to "the great Jim Jordan." He says "people don't know this about Jim": he was a great college wrestler. (Jordan has been accused by multiple wrestlers of ignoring sexual abuse by the wrestling team doctor.)
Trump on Ohio Democratic governor candidate, Richard Cordray, former Consumer Financial Protection Bureau director: "We had to get him the hell out of the - he was destroying a lot of people's lives." He adds, "Bad guy."
Trump on Cordray: "He was groomed by Pocahontas. The legendary Pocahontas. No, actually, not that one. That one would have a problem, but it wasn't that. He was groomed by Elizabeth Warren. His name is Cordray, and he's trouble."
Trump on people he says claimed he was running for president just for fun: "You think this is fun?"
Trump: "I don't see, I mean maybe I'm wrong, I don't see Ohio as liberal. Are you liberal? Anybody, like, liberal?"
Trump lies again that Neil Gorsuch was "number one in his class at Harvard." He graduate cum laude. More than 50 people in his class graduated magna cum laude, Harvard has told me.
Trump is complaining about Democratic "resistance." He says, "They still haven't figured out they lost the election. But they're going to figure it out soon."
Trump falsely claims that a new "poll" shows that "all of the candidates put together can't beat Trump in the election of 2020." He was talking about...gamblers' betting decisions on a website called BetOnline.ag. washingtonexaminer.com/washington-sec…
Trump: "Today's Democrats are not just extreme. They're really not in a position to govern. They're just not in a position to govern when you look at what they are."
Trump: "We have in New York a governor, Governor Cuomo, sues everybody. You go into that state, you get sued...if you go into New York, you get sued. And people are afraid to go to New York. They don't want to do it." I have no idea what he is talking about
The president: "The Democrat Party: you notice I never say 'Democratic Party?' Because it's not really the name. It sounds better, flows better. In a speech it sounds better. I always hate to say 'The Democrat Party' - 'cause it doesn't sound good, that's why I say it."
Trump is talking about "MS-3 (sic) monster gang members."
Trump touting praise of his Nazi-deporting from New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind: "He's a very strong Democrat, probably never uttered the word 'Republican' in his life."

Hikind endorsed George W. Bush, John McCain and Mitt Romney for president.
Trump mocks Pelosi for saying he shouldn't call MS-13 members "animals," since you shouldn't talk about human beings like that.

"They're not human beings," he says.
Trump on ICE and the value of meanness over intelligence: "You can have the highest SATs ever recorded, and that would not impress MS-13. But these guys have the highest scores in what they do."
This Trump speech to the Ohio GOP is as rambling as a Trump rally speech but with none of the energy.
Trump is graphically discussing crimes by illegal immigrants. He says Democrats' policies are "spilling very innocent blood."
Trump says that lots of people say they won't vote for Trump "except when they get into the voting booth." His impression of them: "Is anybody watching? TRUMMMP."
Trump, sounding a bit defensive tonight, says that so many Republican committee chairmen are retiring from Congress because of the party's six-year limit for being a chairman. "They have no choice," he says.
Trump on NAFTA: "We're getting very close to getting something, I think, that's going to be very fair."
Trump threatens auto tariffs on Canada and Mexico if NAFTA negotiations go bad, then says, "I don't want to be threatening at all. I'm not a threatening person."
Trump complains that he'll be "inundated" by complaints if he proposes a 25% tariff on Canada. Canada, he notes, has high tariffs on dairy.
Trump, determined to make everyone's head explode, claims that the U.S. doesn't need to import iron: "We're going to get the iron ore from Minnesota and other places. We don't need anybody from outside."
Trump again falsely claims that he got 52% of "the women's vote" in the election.

He got 52% of the *white women's* vote. About 42% of all women.
Trump on data he saw in 2016 about African-Americans: "Highest crime, toughest areas, worst schools, the lowest home ownership of any group by far...every one was a horror show, but especially anything having to do with crime and education."
Trump on the current situation of African-Americans: "Now we're doing great, and Kanye West liked me."
Trump told a major lie earlier, claiming that soybean prices are now higher than when he "started." He said even he didn't understand how this happened.

Here's the chart of soybean prices since his inauguration.
Agaiiin. Trump he's cut more regulations than any president "even if they're there for four years, eight years, almost 16 years." The longest-serving president, FDR, died after just over 12 years. This is the 10th time he's claimed a president served 16 years or so.
Trump says it used to take 17, 18, up to 21 years to get a highway approved (no) but he's "got it down to about two years" (no).
Trump again talks about the opiod problem without any specifics: "It's a tremendous epidemic in Ohio. Tremendous in Ohio. And we've got, uh, that was very important to Rob Portman. And we're working on a lot of other ideas, but this is a really big problem in Ohio."
Trump calls the Columbus hospital he visited earlier "so beautiful."
Donald J. Trump: "For eight years, Democrats apologized for America. Republicans are now standing up for America."
Trump on NFL broadcasts on ESPN and CBS: "Can you imagine? They're not going to broadcast the national anthem." They have not broadcast the anthem for years, long before the protest controversy began.
Trump with the usual fiction: "They're saying Christmas again now, right. Remember at the beginning of my campaign, it was December and I'd go see these stores and they'd never say Merry Christmas. They're all saying Merry Christmas now."
Trump on elites: "It's like insulting. 'The elite.' I'm much more elite than any of them. So are you. We're much more elite. We're smarter, we're richer, we're better educated, in most cases." He says some of the so-called elites as like "slob" guys.
Trump: "Was that the greatest, coolest evening?" Guess which one.
Well that was something, and also nothing.
No, Trump didn't mention McCain in the speech.
