8 things in Trump's speech that are typical 'The Donald'
You're hired?
Donald Trump announced Tuesday that he's entering the 2016 presidential race in hopes of securing the Republican nomination.
The real-estate tycoon and reality TV star is known for his outspoken, boastful demeanor (And that is putting it mildly).
Here are eight things Trump said in his speech that are completely befitting of 'The Donald' Americans know so well:
1. On United States' trade deals:
"When was the last time anybody saw us beating, let's say, China in a trade deal? They kill us. I beat China all the time. All the time."
2. On Mexico:
"When Mexico sends its people, they're not sending their best. (...) They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."
3. Obamacare and golf:
"And that's what's happening. And it's going to get worse, because remember, Obamacare really kicks in in '16, 2016. Obama is going to be out playing golf. He might be on one of my courses. I would invite him, I actually would say. I have the best courses in the world, so I'd say, you what, if he wants to — I have one right next to the White House, right on the Potomac. If he'd like to play, that's fine."

4. What the country needs:
"We need a leader that wrote The Art of the Deal."
5. On being president:
"I will be the greatest jobs president that God ever created. I tell you that."
6. On money:
"I'm using my own money. I'm not using the lobbyists. I'm not using donors. I don't care. I'm really rich."
7. Keeping the U.S. safe:
"I would build a great wall, and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me, and I'll build them very inexpensively, I will build a great, great wall on our southern border. And I will have Mexico pay for that wall."
8. The American dream:
"Sadly, the American dream is dead(...) But if I get elected president I will bring it back bigger and better and stronger than ever before, and we will make America great again."
