In a bizarre and bombastic speech Tuesday, outspoken billionaire Donald Trump said he will run for President in 2016.
“Our country needs a truly great leader, and we need a truly great leader now,” Trump said in a kick off rally at his glitzy Trump Tower on Fifth Ave.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I am officially running for President of the United States and we are going to make our country great again.”
Over the course of the roughly 40-minute speech, Trump took strange shots at every country imaginable, lobbing offensive insults at several nationalities, and repeatedly slammed President Obama and the nation's leaders as "stupid" and "losers."
He kicked off his bid with a series of disparaging comments about Mexican immigrants, charging many of them are carrying drugs or are "rapists."
10 MOST OUTRAGEOUS QUOTES FROM TRUMP'S ANNOUNCEMENT
“When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best,” Trump said, in an attempt to outline his views on immigration.
“They’re sending people who have lots of problems,” he added, which include “drugs” and “being rapists.”
Trump also promised to end the nation’s illegal immigration crisis by erecting a “great wall.”

Trump acknowledges supporters before his announcement during the event at Trump Tower in New York.

“I will build a great, great wall on our southern border,” he said. “And I will make Mexico pay for that wall.”
Later, he attacked China for stealing jobs from U.S. workers and promised he would restore the American economy.
“I will be the great jobs President that God ever created,” he said.
At other moments, Trump insulted the sovereignty of Saudi Arabia, the brainpower of his competitors for the nomination, and promised to fund his campaign with his own money.
"I'm not using donors. I don't care. I'm really rich,” he said.
Trump’s speech differed significantly from the text of his prepared remarks, prompting several politicos to accuse him of winging the entire event to gain publicity for his name and empire.
Others coyly teased the mogul for the wild ideas he pitched.
“Today, Donald Trump became the second major Republican candidate to announce for president in two days. He adds some much-needed seriousness that has previously been lacking from the GOP field, and we look forward to hearing more about his ideas for the nation,” DNC Press Secretary Holly Shulman said in a statement.
Trump joins another 12 declared candidates in the crowded and ever-growing race for the Republican presidential nomination, including former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul.

He's spot-on correct about Mexico and what should be done.

What most Americans don't realize is that back in the 80's when Reagan was President and was trafficking guns and drugs to Iran and the Nicaraguan government as fully aided and abetted by Oliver North, Cheney and Bush Sr., these same people used Mexico as their personal drug haven to create NAFTA/GATT for the real purpose of free trade of drugs and human trafficking operations known as Operation Greenbacks for Wetbacks. When Reagan/Bush/Cheney took over Mexico drug lords operatives, they made lucrative deals with the Mexican government to have control of their economy in exchange for free trafficking of drugs and prostitution (which continues to this very day). When our government took control of the Mexican government, we are responsible for their peso being devalued, which in return brought down their country. The only people who are wealthy in that area of the world are the drug lords who made pacts with our government to include oil dealings with our government.

We were in Mexico City and stayed with a spook acquaintance whose cover was Citi Bank when they took down the peso (he was also in Libya to "help" their finances after we took over.)
It was a very cheap vacation to MX in 1982.

Anybody who would take a vacation in Mexico City these days, without any intelligence escort and/or acquaintance will be very fortunate is they come back alive and not found beheaded.

We were escorted around by a serious player with P&G and traveled in an armored-up Suburban with bullet-proof glass. Back then, they were mostly worried about ransom-type kidnappings of people with resources.
Today, it seems to be just another war zone.
