“Now she’s saying, ‘Donald Trump, do you trust him with the nukes?’ Let me tell you. My temperament is so much tougher and so much better than her temperament,” Trump said.

“And by the way, we need a tough temperament. All of these countries that are our allies—she talks about our allies—our allies think we’re very stupid people.”

He mocked Clinton’s use of a teleprompter, speech delivery, and compared her speech to a sleep aid:

“It’s like taking Sominex. To watch her is like Sominex. You ever hear of Sominex? Sleep all night. It’s hard to stay awake,” he said.

“I think she could make more money if she made speeches and sold them for people that can’t sleep. It was hard.”

Trump finished his critique of the Democratic frontrunner with his self-described “counter-punch,” calling for Clinton’s incarceration on account of her ongoing email scandal:

“And remember I said I was a counter-puncher?” Trump said.

“I am. After what she said about me today and her phony speech. That was a phony speech. That was a Donald Trump hit job. I will say this. Hillary Clinton has to go to jail. She has to go to jail.”
