Trump: “We are going to seal up the border.
(Cheering and Applause)
Because, right now, we have an invasion. We have an invasion of millions and millions of people that are coming into our country. I can’t imagine why they think that’s a good thing...”

TAPPER: “Donald Trump declaring victory with a historically strong showing in the Iowa Caucuses. If these numbers hold, the biggest victory for a non-incumbent president in the modern era for this contest. A relatively subdued speech as these things go so far. Although here he is, right now, under my voice. You can hear him repeating his anti-immigrant rhetoric. He did take time to praise his rivals, Haley and DeSantis and Ramaswamy by name, rather un-Trump-like to do that. Gracious, but perhaps a sign of some message discipline, at least for one night.”
