Republican nominee Donald Trump sat down with The Post’s Philip Rucker for an interview at Trump National Golf Club on Aug. 2 following a rally at a nearby high school. This is a lightly edited transcript of the 50-minute interview.
RUCKER: So how are you feeling about the campaign?
TRUMP: I think really good. I think, uh —
RUCKER: ’Cause there are a couple of polls that came out showing Hillary got a big bounce —
TRUMP: Yeah, she got a bounce —
RUCKER: — after her convention.
TRUMP: Well, she got the second. You have the advantage being the second convention. It’s a big advantage being the second convention. But I feel good. You see the crowds. I mean, you don’t see enthusiasm like that at a Hillary rally. People are falling asleep.
