Trump endeared himself quickly to the Worcester crowd by namechecking Patriots quarterback Tom Brady in the opening lines of his speech. The audience went wild when Trump brought up the undefeated Patriots, and didn’t quiet for most of the night. It’s not the first time that Trump and Brady have been linked. A Donald Trump “Make America Great Again” hat was spotted in Brady’s locker during the preseason.

#9 “We want to win again!”

Trump returned to the idea of being a winner time and time again during his speech in Worcester. He called America a country of winners; he called Tom Brady a winner, and he even called himself a winner. He promised to return America to its winning ways after eight years with President Barack Obama in the Oval Office (more on him soon.)

#8 “We’re going to build a wall. It’s going to be a great wall. And Mexico is going to pay for it!”

Trump often spoke about maybe his most well-known issue: illegal immigration. Trump promised that he would find a way to keep illegal immigrants out of the United States without costing the taxpayer a dime. He also promised to ensure that those who wish to immigrate to the United States lawfully can do so.

#7 “Obama has been a disaster for this country.”

Told you we would revisit the topic of Barack Obama soon. Trump was sure not to mince words regarding the term of the current President of the United States. He promised to return America back to greatness through policies surrounding trade, foreign policy and immigration.

#6 “I would make Jeb Bush’s fundraising look like peanuts.”

Trump did not spare his opponents in the race for the Republican Presidential nomination during his speech. In this quote, Trump called out Jeb Bush, saying that if Trump decided to accept donations and fundraise rather than self-fund his campaign, he would blow Jeb Bush out of the water. Guess we’ll have to take his word for it.

#5 “Marco Rubio has the worst voting record in the U.S. Senate. If I was in Florida, I would be angry.”

Marco Rubio also found himself the target of Trump during his speech in Worcester. Trump came down hard on Rubio’s voting record and on the amount of votes he missed during his term in the Senate. The crowd roared each time Trump insulted an opponent—be they Republican or Democrat.

#4 “Ben Carson is at 9 percent. Ben Carson is going down! Sorry Ben, you’ve got to know foreign policy. You’ve got to study.”

Trump wasn’t done with Rubio. He also turned his sights on Ben Carson, the outsider who has recently challenged Trump in the polls. He quickly dismissed Carson, harping on his foreign policy inexperience and his violent past, including claims by Carson himself that he once attempted to stab a person.

#3 “Nobody knows it like I do.”

Trump was certainly not one for modesty during his speech at the DCU Center, though he rarely is. Here, he told audiences that he knows the ins and outs of campaign financing better than anyone. Trump said he used to donate to politicians in order to garner influence during his business days—and that it worked.

#2 “I’m not doing this for myself. I have a really nice life. I’m doing it because, first of all, we don’t have much time left, and, second of all, I believe we can make our country better than it’s ever been.”

Trump was quick to remind fans at the DCU Center just how much money he has, referencing his vast real estate holdings and saying that his net worth was even more than what has been reported. He also reminded the crowd that he was running for President, not for glory or to satisfy his own ego. Instead, he claimed he was motivated by a higher cause to improve the United States.

#1 “Wait until you see what I am going to do in this country. You’re going to be so proud of me.”

Trump credited his supporters for jumping on the Trump bandwagon early, and told them to stay on it, even if they’re told by friends, family or the media that they should abandon ship. He told them that he would indeed “make America great again.” In fact, he did one better than that. He promised the fawning crowd that he would make America better than it was even at its highest point.
