Donald Trump pulled few punches — not that he's known for doing so — in his long-planned speech blasting Hillary Clinton on everything from Iraq to Benghazi to, well, everything.

It'd be hard to list them all, but here are five of the most provocative attacks the presumptive Republican nominee directed at his opponent in Wednesday's speech in New York City:

1. She's basically the worst person ever to run for president

To be fair, Trump qualified that she may only claim that distinction, but here's the exact line:

"Hillary Clinton may be the most corrupt person ever to seek the presidency of the United States."

Clinton has blasted Trump as "temperamentally unfit" and unqualified to be president — a blistering critique in itself against a major-party nominee. But to label the presumptive Democratic nominee as perhaps "the most corrupt" candidate ever to seek the nation's highest office is something quite different, many will argue.

2. She wants to bring in immigrants 'who believe women should be enslaved'

This followed a discussion of the Orlando gunman, who was born in the United States, and his family, who are originally from Afghanistan, and how Trump wants to only allow people into the country "who share our values and love our people." Clinton, on the other hand, wants to admit people "who believe women should be enslaved and gays put to death," Trump said.

Trump has made as one of his campaign's central points a plan to temporarily ban Muslims from entering the United States. Clinton, meanwhile, has called for an increase in the number of Syrian refugees allowed into the United States, but, as PolitiFact noted, she emphasized during a December 2015 speech the need to "be vigilant in screening and vetting refugees from Syria, guided by the best judgment of our security and diplomatic professionals."

3. Foreign governments 'have a blackmail file' on Clinton

Trump, not surprisingly, went after Clinton over her use of a private email server while secretary of State, an issue that has dogged her 2016 presidential campaign since it launched last spring. In Wednesday's speech, Trump suggested foreign governments hostile to the United States likely know what was in the emails Clinton's team deleted from her private server that were deemed private, and that those governments probably had "a blackmail file" on the potential 45th president. Trump added:

"We can’t hand over our government to someone whose deepest, darkest secrets may be in the hands of our enemies."

4. Reads letter that called for Clinton to go to jail

Combatting illegal immigration has been Trump's signature issue, and he emphasized it during his Clinton speech. He read a letter from Mary Ann Mendoza, whose son, Brandon Mendoza, was a police officer killed in 2014 in a head-on collision with a car driven by an undocumented immigrant whose blood-alcohol content was well above the legal limit.

Before reading an excerpt of a letter from Mary Ann Mendoza to Trump's campaign, the real estate mogul attributed Brandon Mendoza's death to border policies backed by Clinton. He then read a portion of the letter that included this line:

"She needs to go to prison to pay for the crimes she has already committed against this country.”

While Trump didn't explicitly endorse the notion that Clinton should be imprisoned, he certainly didn't disavow it either.

5. Slams her, again, on Benghazi

In addition to Clinton's private email server, her handling of security at the U.S. diplomatic compound in Benghazi, the site of a 2012 terror attack that resulted in the deaths of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans, has been a frequent criticism from Trump and congressional Republicans. Trump didn't hold back on Wednesday. Of Stevens, he said:

"He was left helpless to die as Hillary Clinton soundly slept in her bed."
