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.

If voters start taking him seriously, the other pubs will gang up on him with a "Dump the Trump" media program.

This may force John McCain to enter the race just so he bark fiercely and bite Donald's ankle. Look for Lindsey Graham to have a neocon melt-down over Donald, too.

Har-har!

Now there's a pair of curs that need putting down.

Their bite is no doubt so unclean as to warrant serious medical attention.
