Former President Trump touted a “bigger win than we anticipated” in the South Carolina Republican Primary Saturday night, saying he looks forward to looking at President Biden in November and saying: “Joe, you’re fired.”
The primary was called for the former president and 2024 GOP frontrunner just moments after polls closed Saturday night.
“This is really something. This was a little sooner than we anticipated and an even bigger win than we anticipated,” Trump said. “And I was just informed that we got double the number of votes that has ever been received in the great state of South Carolina.”
Trump then began highlighting the “horror” of the “millions and millions of people coming across the border illegally.”
“We don’t know where they come from, they come from jails and they come from prisons — they come from all sorts of places,” Trump said. “We’re not going to stand for it — you have terrorists coming in.”
Trump vowed to “straighten things out.”
“The border is the worst it’s ever been,” he said. “We’re going to fix it — fix it very quickly.”
He added: “Our country is going to be respected again. Respected like never before.”
Trump went on to predict he’ll win the general election in November.
“We’re going to be up here on November 5th, and we’re going to look at Joe Biden and he’s destroying our country and we’re going to say, Joe, get out, Joe, you’re fired,” Trump said. “Joe, you’re destroying our country.”
He added: “And we’re going to I just wish we could do it quicker. Nine months is a long time. I just wish we could do it quicker.
