When I became mayor of New York City, I had a $2.4 billion deficit. And everybody wanted me to raise taxes. I said, 'If I raise taxes, I'll drive people out of New York City, and then I'll be raising taxes again.' So what I did was I cut expenses by 15 percent.

With the spirit of my administration, New York City is poised for dramatic change. The era of fear has had a long enough reign.

Every time New York City suffered a tragedy, Donald Trump was there to help. And he did it anonymously.

I really think people understand that in New York City we have high taxes.

I wanted to be a New York City cop before I became an actor.

I said we are going to balance an $11 billion budget deficit in a $29 billion budget, so by percentage, the largest budget deficit in America, by percentage, larger than California, larger than New York, larger than Illinois. And we're going to balance that without raising taxes on the people of the state of New Jersey.
