Out-of-town pool report #11 - Speech wraps/ More Iran / Rep Hunt mention

POTUS also gave a shoutout to Rep. Wesley Hunt, meaning he mentioned all three GOP primary candidates, calling him (a bit later in the speech than when he mentioned Paxton and Cornyn) “another friend of mine who’s doing very well.”

Trump again talked about Iran: “We have a big decision to make. You know that not easy, not easy. We have a very big decision to make. We have a country that's been 47 years blowing people's legs off, arms off, face. They've been knocking out ships, killing people, lots of people, not only Americans, lots of people been terrible. 32,000 people killed over the last two, three months. Protesters…

“ they want to make a deal, but make a deal that's meaningful…

“I'd rather do it the peaceful way, but very difficult people. I want to tell you that theyre very dangerous people, very difficult people.”

Trump hit a number of midterm themes including Pharma prices, Hispanic voters, the ‘Save America Act’ and voter ID, and others. Boos for Obama, cheers for ICE.

Again it was all live. Pls check against transcript.

Fog rolled in fast as speech went on, blocking out the view of the Harbor Bridge.

Speech wrapped at 4.47pm with YMCA. Pool now moving to wherever the vans are
