President-elect Donald Trump made his long-awaited return to campaign-style rallying at Turning Point Action's America Fest in Phoenix, Arizona, on Sunday morning, marveling at the "outstanding" margin of victory that was "too big to rig" and too big to protest.
"We said, Look, now we got to really win, and we won by so much," Trump told the crowd in a speech that aired in part Sunday on Newsmax and the free Newsmax2 streaming platform.
"They just, you know, they threw all their placards. They wanted to protest. They were all set. And at about 9 p.m. they said, Man, this guy is killing us. They threw the placards, they went home and we had no riots. We had no anything.
"It was a beautiful thing to watch. They just said, We lost.
"And we want to try bringing everybody together. We're going to try. We're going to really give it a shot. The thing that brings people together is victory. It's winning."
Trump told the young conservative voter group that the "Golden age of America is upon us."
"And for all of us standing before you today, I can proudly proclaim that the golden Age of America is upon us," Trump said. "It is going to be a very good. It's going to be a golden age. There's a spirit that we have now that we didn't have just a short while ago. Sadly, we didn't have.
"Well, who the hell can have a spirit watching women get beat up in a boxing ring? I don't think that's spirit. Right? We're going to end that one quick."
Trump thanked his Turning Point USA "grassroots army" led by Charlie Kirk.
"We had Turning Point's grassroots army; it's an army," Trump said. "They turned out to vote and they voted in record numbers. And everybody else voted in record numbers too, I have to tell you.
"And we did something that was really epic. We won a battle that a lot of people thought was very hard to win. You know, too big to rig. Remember what I said? Too big to rig: We make it too big to rig, we're going to win.
"And it really was one of the great political victories in the history of our country. And that's good. They said — one of the very big radical left newspapers said — the most consequential election in the last 129 years. And I said, couldn't they have made it a little bit longer than that? You know, 129 years? But that's pretty good. But we won. Oh, it's so nice. We won the popular vote by a lot, by millions and millions."
