Trump Stumps in Davenport to Revive ‘Sick’ Country
Donald Trump knows how to make a big entrance.
“There’s nobody that’s ever done what I’ve done,” he said.
While raising money for Scott County Republicans in Davenport on Thursday morning, the brassy boardroom baron sounds more like a doctor reviving what he calls a “sick” country.
“If I run, if I win, we will be strong again quickly because I’m not a politician,” he said. “Politicians are all talk and no action. They’re never going to get it done.”
Iowa Republicans seem to get a kick out of the preliminary posturing. They soak up his banter and bravado.
“Somebody needs to step forward and tell it like it is,” said John Ortega, Scott County Republicans. “If the other candidates listen to him and do the same thing, I’d love it.”
Trump says that his time in Iowa is very important. He hopes to connect with Iowans on his call for change.
“A lot of people like me in Iowa because they know I’ll help the country,” he concluded. “They know that I will make America great again.”
