Businessman Donald Trump moved to trademark his potential 2016 presidential campaign's catchphrase more than two years ago.

And -- according to a Daily Mail story published Tuesday -- the real estate mogul and television personality would really like his potential GOP rivals to stop using it.

"I've actually trademarked it," Trump was quoted saying last weekend. "I mean, I get tremendous raves for that line. ... I could come up with different lines. You would think they would come up with their own. That is my whole theme."

Indeed, the slogan is plastered all over Trump's potential campaign website. However, Trump is clearly not the first to use it: President Ronald Regan prominently featured the words on his campaign materials. The Daily Mail reported the Trump slogan was an homage to Reagan, whom both Trump and his father supported for president.
