Trump: Something has to be done about this terrible, terrible GEICO ad.  It is the worst I've ever seen on television.  They've got this third-rate guy acting like he's Humphrey Bogart.  He's driving people crazy.  They must be spending tens of millions, hundreds of millions of dollar on it.  It's a horrible commercial.  It bothers everybody.  Every time I'm by a television it's on over and over and over again.  People say turn it off, turn it off; it's driving people totally nuts.  Get rid of this commercial.  I will not have anything to do with GEICO as long as that commercial—we ought to boycott GEICO.  It's already gotten a reputation for just the most heavily saturated commercial ever.  Get rid of that horrible GEICO television commercial.  This is not Humphrey Bogart; if it were Humphrey Bogart would not be a very famous guy.  Get rid of it.

Whenever I do something, I like it to be a success.  I love victory; I love winning.   So, I just got these ratings.  They were just sent to me by Comedy Central, and it's at the Roast of Donald Trump.  [Reading from paper] Donald Trump is ratings gold for Comedy Central, setting records across multiple screens and leading comedy; it led Comedy Central in fact to its most watched Tuesday primetime total viewers and persons 18 to 49 in its history.  That's a long history and its a great history with Comedy Central.

Now it does have something here.  It says the Trump Roast and top roasters trend worldwide on Twitter on Tuesday night. 

So I hope you enjoyed that.


Notes: A GEICO ad?!
