Trump claims to have defied expectations that he couldn’t even finish in the top 10 in Iowa. Expresses his affection for Mike Huckabee and thanks his own family.
It’s a more conventional campaign speech than we mostly hear from Trump, though he adds a very Trump note by citing polls showing him ahead in upcoming states.

“We will go on to easily beat Hillary or Bernie or whoever the hell they throw up there.”
Trump closes by suggesting maybe he’ll buy a farm in Iowa.
this looks like all the bravado "i don't give a damn" attitude was theater his somewhat subdued response is out of character and not the same vitriolic rhetoric we've become accustomed to. one think that hasn't changed his need to self aggrandize. maybe i might not have been wrong about skipping the debate costing him he suggest that premise himself.
