Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said in a speech addressing his win in the Tuesday caucus in Nevada that he has made investments in Las Vegas and loves the state and its “poorly educated” people.

“I love this state. I love Las Vegas,” Trump said. “I have spent and invested so much money over here. Trump International Hotel.”

At the very beginning of his speech, Trump thanked his “great friend” and businessman Steve Wynn, who Trump said gives him campaign advice.

He also acknowledged the demographics who voted for him.

“We won with young. We won with old,” Trump said. “We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated. We’re the smartest people with the most loyal people.”

    I love that Cruz came in third. That guy scares the bejesus out of me. That guy needs to be as far away from getting the nomination as possible.

  2. And his numbers will go UP ----

    What an absolute ass —

  3. Donald is a jerk – but at least a consistent jerk. And I love that he’s kicking Cruz in the cojones…

  4. Trump’s run for the presidency is just some sort of parody, right?

    Does anyone know what Trump is doing on April Fool’s?

  5. Yes, I think so. How can you get into trouble by saying you love a certain group of people? If they are voters, that is. I think he just put away the rest of the inauthentic Republican pretenders to the throne.
