If Donald Trump was writing superlatives for a yearbook, here’s what they might look like, based on his adjective-heavy interview Wednesday with NBC News’ Katy Tur.
Worst secretary of state in the history of the United States: Hillary Clinton
“If you take a look at what’s going on in terms of relationships with the United States, everybody hates us. Hillary Clinton was the worst Secretary of State in the history of the United States. Hillary was the worst in the history of the United States. There’s never been a Secretary of State so bad as Hillary. The world blew up around us. We lost everything including all relationships. There wasn’t one good thing that came out of that administration or her being Secretary of State.”
Biggest disappointment: Mitt Romney
“I think I’m helping the party greatly, and I actually think that if you look at Mitt Romney, who was a great disappointment because he ran a terrible campaign and especially in the last month. He totally collapsed. He choked. Something happened to him, but he choked. Pure and simple.”
Worst economy: The United States
“Our country is in trouble. We owe 18 trillion dollars – going up to 21 trillion very soon. Once we hit 24 trillion, we’re Greece. We are Greece on steroids. We’re a large scale version.”
Most popular among Latinos: Donald Trump
“I have a great relationship with the Mexican people. I have many people working for me — you can look at the job in Washington — I have many legal immigrants working for me. Many of them come from Mexico. They love me, I love them, and I’ll tell you something, if I get the nomination, I’ll win the Latino vote.”
“I listen to the people. I get the biggest crowds. I get the biggest standing ovations and I guess you see it in the poll numbers.”
Biggest advocate for the Second Amendment: Donald Trump
“I don’t want to do anything to violate the Second Amendment. To me, the Second Amendment is very important.”
Best business book of all-time: “The Art of the Deal” by Donald Trump “I have a book called, ‘The Art of the Deal.’ I do The Apprentice. ‘The Art of the Deal’ was like the number one business book of all time or just about – I think it was.” Most successful: Donald Trump “I made [my money] the old fashioned way, in real estate, in real estate. I made it – and I made a lot of money doing everything I did. I made a lot of money with The Apprentice. I made a lot of money in real estate. I made a lot of money with everything I did. I’ve had great success.” Most popular person in Arizona: Donald Trump “I’m going to Arizona this weekend where they want to talk to me because Arizona is – somebody said I’m the most popular person in Arizona because of my stance.” Most desired brand in China: You guessed it — anything Trump “If you look at Businessweek Magazine, they did a story on the ten things that China most wants. One of the 10 things — anything Trump. Anything Trump!”
