2016 ELECTION/2020 ELECTION/TEXAS: “I hear, ‘Trump is only one point up in Texas.’ No, they said the same thing with Crooked Hillary Clinton. They said, ‘Texas is in play. Trump is down in Texas.’ And then I won Texas. Immediately, when they said the polls are closed, ‘Trump has won Texas.’ And I won by a lot.

And I won Georgia by a lot. It’s the same thing over — it’s almost like a duplication of what happened before, except we have much more energy now than we ever did in 2016, and we had a lot. We had record amounts in 2016.”
