Trump is completely deranged. Here's his Fox News word salad interview and transcript - Knowledge is Power
I only got to 12 mins - he doesn't answer a single question. You can read it all if you want. Spoiler eg: "If I were president there would have been no Ukraine"
Here’s the full interview. 2 days after the verdict.1 (The transcript is below.)
Completely different from the edited version shown on Fox News. Here’s a few examples:
Here’s Fox News Cain’s commentary trying to paper over the cracks - “he was open he was in good spirits he was in a good mood I keep searching for the right word“ … “they say he hit nine birdies on that day Saturday“ … “his mindset was certainly remarkable“ 2
And here’s the YouTube (auto generated) transcript.
0:00 well Mr President welcome to Fox and Friends Weekend thank you thanks for being here uh this is your first interview since the verdict it's been 48 Hours U where's your head where's your head at
well look you know I'm fighting
0:12 for the Constitution I'm fighting for the same thing that you three I watch you all the time and same thing that you
0:17 do you fight for Freedom you fight for your country uh these people are sick
0:22 they're sick they're deranged uh you know I talk about uh the enemy on the outside and the enemy from within see if
0:29 Russia China but if you have a smart president you always handle him quite easily actually we have a lot of
0:35 advantages but the the enemy from within they are doing damage to this country uh
0:41 they want open borders they want High interest rates they now want to quadruple your taxes quadruple you know
0:47 all my life I watch politics and it was always like politicians want to lower taxes not quadruple there's a whole
0:54 sickness going on right now so uh we're doing really well it's very interesting jury came in
1:00 uh it was a tough venue we tried to get out of the venue we tried to get out of the judge but uh we tried to get out of
1:06 both wouldn't even think about it so we had probably maybe the worst area in the whole country for me you know in terms
1:12 of vote I'm sure if I sat down and explained it to that section of the world we could probably make progress
1:19 but uh one of the worst sections and they always bring them in these sections you know DC there places where
1:27 Republicans not just me Republicans get like virtually no votes but uh the good
1:33 news is that I think we've set a record beyond all records for fundraising that's like a poll and another one just
1:40 came out just before I got in that we're six points higher than we were before so I don't know if that holds up I mean
I'm
1:47 just not sure but people get it it's a scam and the Republican party is really
1:52 uh they've stuck they stick together in this they they see what's it's weaponization of the justice department
1:58 of the FBI and you know that's all coming out of Washington you may think it's uh you may think it's brag uh take
2:05 a look at who opened the case I'm not allowed to talk about it because I have a gag order I'm probably I guess the first uh Presidential nominee and the
2:13 leader the lead leading crooked Joe by a lot that's not allowed to talk maybe
2:18 they're doing me a big favor who knows but I'm not allowed to talk I'm gagged nobody's ever heard of it guys would say
2:24 to me you know that aren't as well-versed but they know about freedom and the Constitution
2:30 they say they can't gag you it's all coming out it's weaponization and it's a very dangerous thing we've never had
2:36 that in this country they do have it in other countries and South American countries you know a little bit about it
right well that actually leads me to my
2:43 question I think for a lot of Americans what's happened to you feels foreign like this has never happened here before
2:48 but for Hispanic Americans people coming from Latin America this feels very familiar and in those countries people
2:55 are imprisoned um you know instead of going to The Ballot Box and fighting there they're on house arrest they're told they can't run for office um what
3:03 is your message and and by the way I think a lot of Hispanic Americans I hear from them they're scared about what they
3:08 see what's your message to them um about what happened to you and about how
3:15 scared they are that our country is turning into the countries that they left behind the corrupt dysfunctional countries they left behind
and they are scared and they're great people and very entrepreneurial great energy and as you
3:27 know I'm doing very well with them I mean Beyond any but I don't think anybody's ever had you think this is why a little bit I think a little bit I
3:33 think we just well even before people understood what was going on I was doing well with the uh you call them Hispanics
3:40 you know there's about 15 different names Latin americ South am they say
3:46 Latin Americans South Americans Hispanics a lot of different words but we all know what we're talking about and
3:51 they've always liked me and I've always liked them you I've done well from the beginning in 2016 I won the entire
3:57 border along Texas and they're all like 85% and uh it's been great from the
4:03 beginning and now I'm leading I think I'm leading over this guy this guy that can't put two sentences together that's
4:08 destroying our country look he's the worst president in the history of this country and he's a danger to the country
4:15 and you know they have misinformation Donald Trump is a threat to democracy it's just words he doesn't even know what it means but it's like their slogan
4:22 I'm a threat to democracy I'm the opposite they're the threat to democracy and now I hear they're starting to uh go
4:29 over the line with Russia and Russia is getting a little bit nasty like you know maybe we'll start using nuclear weapons
4:35 these people are really uh not a threat to democracy a threat to the country
4:42 just to this country surviving uh Beyond democracy beyond anything so now they have they tell
4:49 Ukraine it's okay to start going and popping off Russia you know how how did we get in this mess
if I were president3 there would have been no Ukraine
not one Ukrainian would have been killed not one city would be knocked down I mean the
5:02 place is a disaster right now most of the cities are knocked down I guess they're saving kiev for you know they
5:08 probably want to use it a little bit so they're waiting but not one they're just lobbing missiles in not much they can do
5:15 about it but now uh they want to get aggressive and they want to fight back and you know it's okay but boy that's a
5:21 big that's a big statement and the N word is being mentioned right and the nword is the nuclear word and uh you
5:29 know we're giving we're probably in real numbers 250 billion and Europe's in for about
5:35 70 and I say why isn't Europe why aren't the European nations which would be NATO which I kept
5:42 together which I was able to keep together by getting them to pay they weren't paying we were paying for the whole thing practically there were only eight Nations that were paid up
5:49 including us and I got hundreds of billions of dollars from them I said look if you don't pay we're going to
5:54 leave we're not going to defend you if you don't pay and uh they pay that's where they have the money now because of
6:00 what I did because Obama didn't do anything they go and make a speech Bush didn't do anything nobody did anything
6:05 and I looked at the statement I'm good at statements I look at a statement I said nobody's paying we're paying we
6:11 were paying for I'll bet you 90% could even be more than that and then they take advantage of us on trade very badly
6:18 almost as badly as China you know nobody would believe that but the European nations uh take tremendous they don't
6:24 buy our cars they don't buy our farm products they don't buy anything uh and then we're supp to defend him so I said
6:30 no you got to you got to pay up you got to pay up like you're supposed to one of the leaders said to me does that mean
6:36 that if we're attacked by Russia that means you're not going to pay us you're not going to defend us I said are you
6:42 telling me you're delinquent that's a real estate term are you delinquent like delinquent on your rent are you delinquent yes if we don't pay I said no
6:49 no we're not going to protect you the next day billions of dollars started pouring and it was sort of amazing if
6:55 you said the other why would they do it and that's what they've done for years but now they're talking about a
7:01 different level of War now they're talking about getting aggressive but they have to be careful because they're being beaten pretty badly you know
7:07 they're being beaten pretty badly and uh what a mess to think it would have never
7:13 happened Israel would have never happened Ukraine Ukraine would have never happened and Israel would have never been attacked and you wouldn't
7:20 have had inflation and you would have had a great military you would have had a lot of things right now that you don't have and you wouldn't have an electric
7:26 car mandate which is going to be which is one of the Great jokes of all time and I think everybody should have an
7:32 electric car if they want one but they should be able to buy other forms of
7:37 propulsion [“propelsion”]
7:40 [Cain] yes Mr President I want to return to the verdict and I want to explore something you've said several
7:42 times already in the conversation you've referenced “these people” I'm sure you've seen the video of Joe Biden when he was
7:48 asked about the verdict and he gave sort of a smirk to the camera
Oh Terri terrible remember Bragg didn't want to do the case
7:54 he came out he said there's no case and how can you have a witness like so and so I'm not allowed to make mention the
7:59 name can you believe this this guy's allowed to have shows television shows I'm not allowed to
8:05 mention the name it's so unfair but regardless you know you have to you have
8:10 to really play the hand that you're dealt and then you had a jury that was you know from a certain persuasion would
8:16 have been hard to do no matter what but uh I did absolutely nothing wrong I mean
8:22 absolutely think of it you know I hate when they say a bookkeeping this and that it's not it's called think of it
8:29 expense I use the word expense legal expense I pay a lawyer he wasn't a fixer
8:35 he was he was a lawyer at the time I pay a lawyer and he's a lawyer it's called
8:41 Legal expense a bookkeeper without ever speaking to me because she did the right thing who's been with me for years marks
8:48 it down as legal expense in other words I paid a legal expense it's marked down as a legal expense and they say that's a
8:55 fraud what am I going to call it did you ever see a ledger do you ever study accounting the line's like about an inch
9:01 long and an eighth of an inch wide you can't write the story but there is no story if you pay a legal expense and you
9:07 write it down as a legal expense and then they indict you and they go to a grand jury and they don't use Bob Costello’s
9:14 testimony you know they use almost none of it they they didn't want him before the grand jury because he's very persuasive this judge didn't want him to
9:21 talk they shouldn't allowed certain people to testify it was totally wrong that they
9:28 did that so everyone tells me this is the easiest case they've ever seen to overturn but they don't care because
9:34 they want the last till after the election now the only problem they have is that so far my poll numbers have gone up you explain this to me because I
9:40 don't Pete maybe can explain it I maybe will I don't know maybe we'll can they're smart in Texas right but but the
9:47 poll numbers have gone up substantially I don't know if that's going to remain that way they're tired of it
9:53 weaponization they call it lawfare
[Cain] you changed your tone at some point during the trial I would say maybe a bit more
10:00 hopeful in the beginning and then towards the end you said something to the effect of even Mother Teresa couldn't be acquitted in this venue was
10:06 there a moment in the trial that you felt like it turned or you saw that it was headed in a certain direction
well
10:12 when you object to something your lawyers object good lawyers professional lawyers Good Records nice people you
10:20 know I've had I've had a lot of lawyers that weren't nice and sometimes you better off that way these are these are
10:25 really fine people they'd object uh not accepted not accepted not accepted
10:32 when the government meaning the da brag when he said something uh all right good
10:39 that's fine going more more more but the the main thing is this that this was turned down by the southern district
10:45 this is over years this could have been brought seven years ago you know they tried to rush it because they wanted it before the election but this could have
10:51 been brought seven years ago but they didn't have any attention a case like this has never been brought before and
10:56 there's never been a case where a state has gone after federal election in other words that's for a federal that's for like the southern district to go
11:03 southern district turned it down we got clearance from the FEC Federal Election
11:08 Commission clearance they're suing saying we violated the thing but they
11:14 gave us clearance but the charge was written I mean it was like a weird charge uh you have a little of this a
11:20 little of that do a little of this throw a little mix it up
[Cain] given all of that you know we're watching this trial everyone's watching it on TV yeah you're
11:27 living it you're in the middle of it regardless of all of that still when that verdict is being read what's going
11:33 through your head
well was weird because we go in and the judge it looked like it
11:38 was a hung jury for a while and it's sort of the most you could hope for because in the area it's almost imp I
11:44 mean I've seen it I've seen people that no matter how the three of you what we're all sort of similar in terms of
11:50 would like to see strong borders and low taxes and strong military and lots of good things right you know all common
11:56 sense I call it the party of Common Sense and we people of Comm Common Sense who wants to have an open border where
12:01 millions of people are coming into our country right millions and millions and not just from South America they're
12:06 coming in from Africa from from the Middle East from Europe from all over the world they're coming in and they're
12:12 coming in from jails and they're coming in from mental institutions in s as Salems the worst some of the sickest
12:19 people mentally ill people are being dropped into our country we're going to
12:24 be paying for this for a long time now I'm going to do the big deportation the biggest ever Eisenhower did the biggest
12:32 this will be bigger but it's a it's a very tough thing what they've done to our country it's Unthinkable that they
12:39 could do this and so many other things I mean like you go into New York the kids can't have Little League games anymore
12:45 it sounds so trivial right why because the migrants are living in the fields they have all tents unless you want to
12:52 play around the tents it's a little bit tough it's a little bit tough to play but no I mean but when you think of like
12:59 Common Sense who really thinks that men should be playing in women's sports
13:05 right it's it's you know something I mention all the time gets one of the biggest Applause but but who you know
13:12 where does the mind come from right a man playing look at the weightlifting records I mean these weightlifting guys
13:17 that never lifted a anything before they're breaking the the records by numbers that are like Unthinkable
13:24 against women that are the top women they the strongest and they're getting blown Blown Away who would think the
13:31 swimming records the track records it's crazy it's just crazy I actually when I first heard
13:36 about it you know what was it like six seven eight years ago right when I first heard about it I actually thought they were kidding I thought you know this was
13:43 just a funny joke but they're actually serious about it they're actually committed to it and who would want that
13:50 who would want open borders who would want this stuff uh who would not want to
13:55 have taxes be low and expenses be reasonable and good schools and all of the things I mean who would want to have
14:03 uh our army tanks we make the greatest army tanks in the world I saved that factory in in Ohio I saved it Lima I
14:11 saved it in Ohio they were going to close it I saved it as actually the president-elect I heard about a friend
14:17 of mine called up he said they're going to close down our army tank factory and we're not going to be able to make army tanks I said that doesn't sound good I
14:22 when I visited it was unbelievable the people there were unbelievable they want to make them now an electric right but
14:29 they don't go far and they have to pull a wagon because the wagon you know the battery is so big MH that the army tanks
14:35 will have a wagon like a child he pulling a wagon it's a heavy wagon too very heavy the whole thing is crazy
14:42 these people are crazy Mr President you've been through a lot yeah in your presidency what they've done to you you you've got the verdict um that just came
14:49 through a lot of Democrats have expressed concern that if you're elected you're going to want revenge and some of
14:56 your supporters have said well well you know mutually you know when you come we're just talking about the
15:02 weaponization of the justice system against political opponents some of your supporters have said well the only way
15:07 to stop this is mutually assured destruction right if you do it to us we're going to do it to you you've said
15:13 no my revenge is going to be success for America you've just had this verdict
15:18 yeah do you still feel the same what's your what's your thoughts on that it's a
15:23 really tough question in one way because these are bad people these people are sick and they do things that are so
15:31 destructive I mean look what they did from the from the day I got there and I I don't know you know a lot of people
15:37 said we have no choice but to elect Trump Republicans because he's the only one that can withstand this don't forget
15:43 if it weren't me that'd be going after somebody else and I know a lot of the competition they wouldn't they wouldn't do so well they wouldn't be doing so
15:50 well right now they'd be saying mommy take me home I want to go home this is brutal but these are sick people and for
15:57 instance the 51 intelligence agent who thinks of these and they think about it just like they say I'm guilty of and you
16:05 know all this information was from so many years before the election you know it's before the election so it wasn't like oh gee I want an El you know the
16:12 election just started coming out during the trial they said oh I have an idea remember John Lovitz the liar yeah yeah
16:19 I went to Harvard yeah yeah I went they do that during the trial yeah yeah uh yeah that's right it affected the
16:25 election it affect this stuff never even came I never even heard about affecting the election they're talking about the
16:30 election of 2016 they're going back you know the interesting somebody brought it up today was very interesting on your
16:37 network somebody brought it up and they said you know the funny thing is that they're deniers because they're now
16:43 saying that Trump change the election so so but but that's a great point because so you're you're you're talking about
16:50 the Intel agencies obviously you know remember what Chuck Schumer said he said you know if you take off the Intel
16:55 agencies they'll find a way to get you six way and if you're Ed are you going to reform the Intel Community what what
17:03 exactly are you going to do to make sure they don't Target Americans like this well first of all if you remember when I
17:09 took over we had a guy named Comey he was there I didn't put him there I didn't want him there I thought he was terrible actually and he tried to get me
17:16 and I reversed it on you know some people said he cost till to the election and he didn't want to but he was a bad
17:22 guy not a capable guy evil an evil guy they were doing things that I mean I
17:29 won't mention here CU it's so conspiratorial I don't want to be conspiratorial it's too nice a show but
17:34 but bad guy I fired him then I fired struck and page and this one and that I
17:39 got rid of that whole group of people and we were doing great we would we were really and and another places too Pete
17:46 knows better than anybody the Veterans Administration you know at the end of my term we had a 92% approval rating it was
17:52 at 40 when we took it over Pete used to call up just as somebody that we knew each other a little bit through this
17:57 stuff and he'd complain about things he'd also complain about soldiers being treated unad unfairly a soldier is
18:05 trained to be a soldier and some of these guys are tough and if we didn't have them we wouldn't
18:10 have a country Frank and then they get into a fight and it's nasty and they win
18:17 and then they want to lock them up for 30 years and we took care of a lot of people a lot and it was just unfair they
18:24 trained them to be killers and then they do their job against some very bad people I'm not saying good people I'm
18:30 saying they they beat some very bad people if you didn't have guys like the ones that we know they wouldn't last
18:36 very long and then they want to lock them up for 30 years you know it's sort of they train them to do their job they
18:42 do their job and then they say let's lock them up look it's a very interesting question and I say it and it
18:49 sounds beautiful right you know my revenge will be success and I mean that but it's awfully hard when you see what
18:56 they've done these people are so even and at the same time the country can
19:01 come together you know I'm saying this but the country can come together you know during my term prior to co we had
19:08 the most successful country we've ever had everybody's job Hispanic black Asian
19:14 women men without a diploma men with MIT Wharton and Harvard diplomas all of them
19:20 put together everybody was making more money doing better than they've ever
19:26 done before and radical left people people I would call them radical left were coming up to me and say could we
19:31 meet it was coming together and then we had Co our gift from China came out of Wuhan like I said right I remember I
19:38 told you that a long time ago I never changed it was the Wuhan lab they made a mistake and and by the way it was
19:43 incompetence I walked out to have lunch with his girlfriend and and the scene was set it was a disaster okay what
19:50 happened but we did a great job never got credit for that always got credit for a good economy for uh taking out
19:56 saloman taking out albd d uh you know I defeated Isis Isis was going to take
20:02 five years at least and they don't think Mattis said sir will take at least five years I got it done in like three months
20:09 I defeated Isis our military is so great the real generals the real the guys that know how to fight uh one of the things
20:17 that I hated to see and I think one of the lowest points in the history of our country was Afghanistan the way that
20:22 happened and you know I I I dealt with Abdul the leader of the Taliban and I
20:29 had conversations with him on the phone and frankly the media went crazy why is
20:34 he speaking to that's you know it's like I always say Jesse James why do you rob the banks that's where the money is
20:39 that's where the killing was that's where the snipers were with Abdul and I had some nice conversations we didn't
20:45 lose one person in 18 months and then they took over and they
20:51 were killing us like like Abdul was a very happy man when I was out and then
20:56 they had that disaster the leaving of Afghanistan the way they left you know we were going to leave but we're going
21:02 to keep barram which is one of the biggest air bases in the world course has billions and billions of dollars to
21:07 build many years ago but we were going to leave because of China because it's one hour away from it where China makes
21:13 its forget about Afghanistan it's exactly right next to China it's exactly one hour away from where they made their
21:19 nuclear make their nuclear weapons isn't that a great thing that we're going to keep it going to leave 4,000 people and
21:25 keep it and keep it strong right they gave it up they gave up everything and they move the military out first you
21:32 move the military out last I always say I give a child a 5 years old I say okay
21:38 now those are the facts would you move the military out first or would you move first we would have taken our people out
21:44 then we would have taken some people that helped us shouldn't be too many I mean how many people can you take but nevertheless it were people that helped
21:50 us take them out but we have Americans left behind we have 13 dead soldiers
21:56 incredible the parents largely the you know they came here shortly after that
22:01 and I'm going to have them back too we sat they said well we won't see President Trump he'll come maybe for a
22:06 couple of minutes I stayed with them for four hours we listened to music up in the up in the deck it's beautiful it was
22:12 just nice you know they're great people they're devastated that would have never happened we would have left with dignity
22:17 and strength and then you take out your equipment they left $ 85 billion worth
22:23 of equipment I rebuilt the entire military 85 billion of it was left in Afghanistan
22:29 and they're one of the biggest the Taliban they're one of the biggest sellers of military equipment now will in the whole world I think they're
22:35 number two because they're selling because they don't need 730,000 rifles they have 730,000 I mean I don't know
22:43 what we go to fight a war what did they do what of 37 rifles for every Soldier we have it's crazy but we had 730
22:50 something odd uh thousand rifles and then we had 72,000 Vehicles many of them
22:56 armor plated you know how expensive with 4in armor 4 in like this on the bottom MH and they sell all that stuff they're
23:03 one of the largest cuz they don't need all of it you know they can keep instead of think of what 70,000
23:09 72,000 uh Vehicles is if you take the biggest used parking lot Ed car lot in
23:16 Texas take Texas they big they probably have what 500 cars here we have
23:24 70,000 70,000 and many are armor plated they have the you know they had to make
23:30 the armor where it goes like this m because the bombs are so powerful alany
23:35 taken out they're so powerful but that was what that was doing was killing everybody on the side of it right
23:41 because it was going like that so you it's a it's a tough thing but some of these things cost millions of dollars
23:47 and we left it all behind I want to follow up on what Rachel asked you though because I hear you struggling with it I hear you say it's a tough
23:53 question a bit unsure you famously said regarding Hillary Clinton lock her up you declined to do that as president but
24:00 now and purposely because after I won you know it's different when you win I see it tonight I'm going to UFC with
24:07 Dana White and I see Fighters they come in with hatred like you wouldn't believe
24:12 it it's amazing it's a little metaphor in life right the hatred the Hat each
24:18 then after the fight somebody wins somebody loses sometimes they get knocked out sometimes it's but they hug
24:23 and they kiss each other it's like crazy I beat her it's easier when you
24:29 win and they all said lock and I felt and I could have done it but I felt it
24:34 would have been a terrible thing and then this happened to me and so I may
24:40 feel differently about I can't tell you I can I'm not sure I can answer the question Hillary Clinton I didn't say
24:46 lock her up but the people would all say lock her up lock her up okay then we won and I'd say and I said pretty openly I
24:51 say all right come on just relax let's go we got to make our country great yeah
24:57 and it would have been think of you lock up the wife of a president of the United but they want to lock you up
25:03 over $130,000 of an accounting thing and she per and a perfectly stated accounting
25:09 thing success will bring the country together because I had it together before the China virus came in I had it
25:16 together we really had it together and and it would have stayed I think it would have stay everybody was everybody
25:23 was doing better the country was doing better than it had ever done and we're going back to the same policies and then
25:28 some and then some one of the bigger differences I know you know before I I
25:34 uh won I was in Washington the Press about 17 times I never stayed over so I
25:39 wasn't a Washington person and I relied on people for recommendations and I got you know a lot
25:46 of great ones look we had great uh the economics Bob lighy there so many people we had great people but we also had some
25:52 that I wouldn't have put I don't have to use their names but that I wouldn't have put now I know I know all I know the
25:59 tough ones and the weak ones and the Smart Ones and the dumb ones and the you know we know the strong ones and so I
26:05 think it's going to be very good and we're ready to go but but the country is really going bad when you look at all
26:10 these people millions of people coming into this country it's I I really think other than nuclear weapons which I think
26:17 are the single biggest threat not global warming when they say that the Seas will
26:22 rise over the next 400 years 1/8 of an inch you know which means basically you have a little more beachfront property
26:28 okay think of it the seas are going to rise who knows but this is the big
26:33 threat I watched Biden the other night it's the greatest existential he loves
26:39 that word because it's a big word and he thinks you know he thinks he knows he doesn't even know what the hell the word means uh he goes it's the greatest
26:46 existential threat to our country global warming in the meantime you get these
26:51 Maniacs with nuclear weapons that can do damage which I won't even talk to you about but I know the
26:57 damage it's it's the greatest there has never been anything like it the power of Weaponry today it will be obliteration
27:04 and that's your real threat but in terms of our country a real threat are the people that are coming in that are being
27:11 allowed to come in uh just we're going to move on to some other topics too but just moving forward uh they've set the
27:17 uh the arraignment date for 4 days before the RNC yeah well that's part of the game it is some have suggested you
27:24 could appeal straight to the Supreme Court because of the special nature of this case um when it comes to the legal
27:29 maze that you're still facing and they could the judge could decide to say hey house arrest or even Jail uh one of my
27:36 lawyers the other day on television saying oh no you don't want to do that to the Pres I said don't you don't beg for anything just the way it is think of
27:43 it they have all my books you know they went to for five years they sued me getting my tax returns right at the end
27:50 of five years they got him the Supreme Court actually gave it to them that was
27:56 the end of it that that was it they never found anything they are the best accounting firms I have I had a a pure
28:02 gold firm they call it a gold rated firm I don't know it's supposed to be who knows but with all that for years you
28:10 heard about yeah my tax and no one looked into the Clinton foundation and they never found it they never went all
28:16 the way with the Clinton Foundation they never went all the way with the Clinton Foundation which is sort of interesting
28:21 isn't it but um so that could happen I don't know that
28:27 the public would stand it you know I don't I'm not sure the public would stand for it with a if they tried house
28:33 arrest or I think I think it would be tough for the public to take you know at a certain point there's a breaking point
28:39 it's very funny I watched the radical left and I watched the the right and
28:45 everyone's always talking about the right you know this side the right the right the right's not the problem when you look at Portland when you look at
28:51 what happened in Minneapolis if I didn't call out the National Guard which I wasn't even supposed to because the governor are supposed to call I'm not
28:57 you wouldn't even have Minneapolis right now Minneapolis would be would be wiped off remember the CNN anchor I think it
29:04 was veli uh he's standing there this is a friendly protest this is very friendly
29:11 and then somebody hit him on the KN peaceful mostly peaceful is that what yeah mostly peaceful this is friendly this is a mostly and you look behind him
29:17 the entire city is burned it was like it was like the second world war the whole city is burning the fire behind him and
29:25 he's talking about that this is friendly this is a friendly protest that's exactly no it's crazy it's what's going
29:31 on is crazy don't forget I got millions of more votes the second time than I got the first time very rare Obama got
29:37 millions less you know than he won uh I got millions more I was to I got 63
29:43 million the first time I got millions more close to 12 million more that we
29:48 know about that's there that's those they said if you get 63 this is mcland forio the big pollsters good
29:56 pollsters they said if you could get the same number you win I got millions more very rarely does a president get more
30:02 they win or they lose but they don't get you know very rarely get more Obama got a lot less he got a lot less the second
30:08 time andone it's so bad for our country and I wouldn't have done this and then I
30:15 had good Republicans running and and you know we took it was the fastest nomination in history I got it very fast
30:22 you know in theory it just ends like this weekend right you'd find out a normal thing you'd find out this weekend
30:28 who would win and I got it you know I won it months ago against you know good competition you wrapped it up pretty quick so this interview is going really
30:34 fast and I know we have like a bunch of other questions so can we can we kind of go that and we'll kind of keep our
30:40 answers short so we can get to it okay so um I'm going to start with this one
30:45 um Americans have lost a lot of trust in institutions and I think there's been a lot of discussion especially online and especially with young people how do we
30:52 rebuild that trust in institutions the CIA the FBI all all those institutions
30:58 some people think that one way to build trust is to declassify things that everyone's talking about I know you
31:04 talked earlier about I don't want to be a conspiracy theorist so if you were president would you declassify you can
31:10 answer yes or no to these would you declassify the 9911 um files yeah would you declassify JFK files yeah would you
31:17 I did I did a lot of it would you declassify the Epstein files yeah yeah I
31:22 would all right I guess I would I think that less so because you know you don't know you don't want to affect people's
31:28 lives if it's phony stuff in there because it's a lot of phony stuff with that whole world uh but I think I would
31:35 or at least do you think that would restore trust help restore trust yeah I I don't know about Epstein so much as I do the others certainly about the way he
31:41 died it would be interesting to find out what happened there because that was a weird situation and the cameras didn't happen to be working etc etc but you I'd
31:49 go a long way toward that one uh the other stuff I would I would definitely do the January 6th because yeah oh
31:56 beyond all of them because what happened how about the unselect committee they had a they had meetings you know they
32:02 had all Democrats and two failed Republicans right Cheney and cryan Adam kininger see Biden couldn't do this
32:09 interview do you think he'd remember a cryan Adam kininger do you think he'd remember all these different names these
32:16 different folks and I didn't know you were going to be talking about this but but you know when I mean can you imagine
32:22 the whole thing is crazy what we're do what what we're going in I got to know that leaders of all the countries and
32:30 they're at the top of their game they're very sharp they're vicious that's why they're doing so well um Honduras all of
32:38 them I know every one of them and they're very street-wise people you know that better than anybody they're
32:43 StreetWise and they're they're smart and they love their country or they want to do a good job for their country or
32:49 themselves doesn't matter because whatever it is and they're moving all of their bad people into our country and
32:55 Venezuela just reported to 72 % that their crime is down 72% in a year you
33:01 know why because they moved all their criminals into the United States and the next time we do an interview we'll do it
33:06 in Venezuela because it'll be much safer than being in our country well You' brought up deportations in this
33:12 interview how can you how can you implement deportations and do you think
33:18 the public will have the appetite the stomach for watching deportations on their television screen well the second
33:24 part of that question is so so great and so tough because you know the radical left is
33:29 going to start saying oh look so you'll get rid of 10 really bad ones and one
33:36 you know beautiful mother who they think is guilty of something and maybe she is maybe and it'll
33:43 become a story or a family that's a good family and came in wrong and you know
33:49 they're going to show it then it's going to always be tough it's not going to be easy and we have to use a lot of good
33:54 judgment but the way you get rid of them is a local police you know the local police know these people by their first
33:59 name their middle name and their last name the local police are great they're just not allowed to do their job they're afraid of losing their pension they're
34:06 afraid of losing their wife or husband they're Lo going to lose their house they're losing everything and one of the
34:12 things I'm doing is giving uh local police uh immunity from prosecution they
34:18 get prosecuted when they do their job they get like your soldiers when they do their job when they watch department
34:25 stores being raided by 500 people when guys are walking out with television sets and they're told to
34:31 stand back okay they're told to stand back do not do anything and they go into
34:37 these stores these big stores that have you know opened two years ago and they spent $25 million to build a store and
34:43 the stores are empty down to the shelves they even take the shelves out they take everything and the cops standing they
34:50 don't want to be standing there they want to do their job you know who's great the border patrol the border patrol I know them so well they endorsed
34:57 me every they always endorse me they said when Trump comes back it'll all be better and Biden by the way he doesn't
35:03 need any legislation he could say the word close the border that's what I did I said close the border and it was so
35:11 bad that it took a little while I fixed the Border originally that's how I got elected in a way you know I but now the
35:17 border is and I fixed it and I couldn't even use it in 2020 in 2016 it was a big
35:23 factor of my win I fixed it very quickly and then in 2020 it was so good I said
35:29 let me talk about the Border my people over here all these Geniuses said please sir don't talk about the Border it's
35:35 fixed I said let's talk about it but nobody wanted to hear about it but now the border is a 100 times worse than it
35:42 was in 2016 yes and you mentioned those will asked about deportations and you mentioned local authorities having more
35:49 power what do you do in sanctuary local because so much of that is they can't even talk to ice let alone work with ice
35:54 if you're going to deport five seven 10 million illegals it's going to require
36:00 you know the people and even the politicians don't want Sanctuary cities they really don't i' I've spoken to many
36:05 people in California and they're fed up they're fed up they can't they can't take it anymore they don't want it even
36:12 liberal Democrats they don't want it anymore you have to end Sanctuary cities
36:18 I mean they're guarding criminals they they're guarding people that are killing people and you can't get to them and
36:24 guys like Gavin nsam is is uh he's a disaster he's running it he's running it
36:31 so badly it's so badly run and you know I watched him on uh Sean Hannity Show
36:37 with that uh debate and he'll talk like everything's wonderful it's great go Cali it's not
36:43 it's doing terribly it's doing terribly but somebody has to call him out they have to call him out but the job of
36:50 sanctuary cities is so it's just so horrible for our country I have another question on the border yeah so in just
36:57 as FIS year 2024 there's been 74,000 unaccompanied children that have come across the border in 2023 get this
37:04 number 137 275 you know you've seen the images of these of these children five 7 years old
37:12 9 years old 12 years old and the Joe Biden Administration has lost 880,000 of
37:19 them no one cont track no one knows where they're at at least yeah much more at least there's probably more but at least um will you commit will the Trump
37:28 Administration commit to finding these children to finding them and and and
37:33 returning them to their families to their countries because many of them have been lost into sex trafficking many
37:39 of them are did you know it's heartbreaking no it's heartbreak it's amazing uh will you commit to that will you commit to finding those children
37:45 their I haven't been asked that question but the answer is yes it's a simple answer many of them are dead uh they
37:51 have done such a bad job they have done such a bad job and you know they go under the guys that they're doing this
37:56 wonderful job of letting people come in you know what's also really bad the Caravans I think I came up with that
38:01 name a long time but where you form 25 30 40,000 people coming up the level of
38:08 of uh abuse and just anger and craziness toward women I mean the Caravans you
38:15 know the mothers put their daughters in those Caravans knowing in many cases the
38:20 daughter's not coming back knowing for almost certainty that the daughter is going to be raped yes you know they give
38:27 them large like bottles of birth control pills the mothers because they know they're going to be raped I know on the
38:34 way up all the time it's unconscionable no the whole thing is incredible and Biden thinks he's doing a favor by
38:39 allowing and the only reason they have the Caravans is because by because I ended it all people weren't getting in
38:46 we had the lowest number after the final week that the lowest number that we've ever had recorded number of uh illegal
38:52 immigration I had it down Caravans anymore you had them when I came in and you didn't have them
38:59 anymore it was really good all he had to do is go to the beach and let my people
39:04 do the job just let him stay and keep remain in Mexico I had a policy you think that was easy to get will getting
39:11 remain in Mexico from the president who's great guy he's actually a great guy but he likes Mexico he doesn't like
39:19 us okay remain Tiana was a mess Tiana had to be the fastest growing city they
39:24 had hundreds of thousands of they couldn't come into our country until we approved them and we didn't approve too many of them you know very seldom did we
39:31 approve any but they gave up all that stuff that I had Catch and Release I called it catch and release in Mexico we
39:37 catch and release in this country would' catch a killer know that he's a killer
39:42 and release him in our country I mean who who would do this who would allow this so we ran a great thing
39:50 if he went to the beach because somebody convinced him that he looks good in a bathing suit you know and at 81 or 82
39:56 typically you don't look too great and he didn't have the power to lift those shars you know those shears weigh about 6 ounces they're meant for they're
40:02 meant for children and old people to care and he couldn't and he can't car it anyway let's talk about vice president
40:09 Pete and I have gone off the- wall we've talked about historically presidents pick vice presidents based upon what
40:14 states they can deliver we've talked about the fact that you're looking for it seems to be that you might be looking for a fighter let's just ask you
40:20 directly what are you looking for in vice president so you always have to say
40:26 and I I mean it is if something should happen to the president you have to get somebody can be a good president okay
40:31 and I think you have to say that then the second thing I want somebody that can selfishly help me to get elected but
40:38 typically if you look over the years look back a hundred years it's almost never that a vice president helps the I
40:45 mean you're out there all by yourself you really are there's a day or two of you know hoopla you picked a vice
40:50 president then it goes back but it it's almost never it's almost never helped
40:57 actually the one person that helped I guess you could say is Lyndon Johnson because he was a political real political animal and he sort of helped a
41:04 little bit politically with daily etc etc I guess but you know that's a theory anyway but typically a vice president
41:10 doesn't help so I would say somebody that you can get along with somebody that can help you get elected somebody
41:16 that can be and and first is somebody that can be a very good president did you learn any lessons from the last
41:22 person you picked that will help you yeah either pick or not pick somebody in the next time I feel badly for Mike
41:29 because uh he was a he was a very nice person I got along with him for
41:35 uh I'd say three years and 11 months debate's coming up on June 27th
41:43 yeah um how do you prepare for that and what's it I mean you you've stated it
41:48 Joe Biden's in a different place how do you what's your strategy coming into it so debates are interesting because I had
41:55 never debated before and then I debated did a lot on the first you know in 2016 I had like 14 debates or something and
42:03 um and it's been good I mean it's been good for me it's been worked I think I W every debate but I never had you know
42:11 it's very interesting in 2016 I said who are these people I'm debating half of them I never heard of because you know
42:17 they're Governors from some place where they're Senators I said start with Ted Cruz and they say well he's the national
42:22 debate Champion he's the this he's the that and I said that's not good news you know that's it's not good I mean I could
42:28 have done with a little bit less maybe I should have started with somebody else but they were all you know they're
42:33 talented politicians that's what I mean for the most part they're politicians very interesting in running for
42:39 president 92% were politicians and 8% were Generals not Admirals right
42:45 generals uh and that's it so when you know all of a sudden I'm going in as a business guy and different kind of a guy
42:52 but we had great four years we were very successful very I mean the things largest tax cuts in history we had the
42:59 largest regulation Cuts in history we had the best economy in history we rebuilt our military we had no Wars I
43:06 defeated Isis but since you've been out of office things have deteriorated and we've talked a little bit a level that's
43:12 not even believ and I think most people agree with you on that um one of the areas that I want to talk about and it
43:18 it's it's related to The Border but it's much bigger than that and that's the problem of China taking over the Western
43:24 Hemisphere so they' we've had an 8,000% increase coming over the border of Chinese military men um I'd like to know
43:30 your thoughts on what you think they're doing here they're buying up Farmland but then in Latin America they're making
43:36 deals with governments we're not doing the deals they're buying up infrastructure they're buying up you know resources they're taking over the
43:44 Western Hemisphere they're taking over the Panama Canal so how about the Panama Canal it's crazy that we built and lost
43:50 36,000 people to the mosquitoes you know 36,000 people died so what will you what
43:56 because there's a lot of people wor about the entire hemisphere now I mean we used to worry about things over you
44:01 know far away this is in our hemisphere what will you do to stop all the things that have that are happening from the
44:07 Farmland to all the ways that they're winning in the Western in our backyard okay so if you remember with China I
44:16 turned it around first of all I exposed China because everyone was giving everything oh it's a developing Nation I
44:22 said this is not a we're a developing Nation they're a very rich Nation they're doing they're doing very well
44:28 but I turn things I also got along very well with President she but I did something that nobody did I charged him
44:33 hundreds of billions of dollars of tariffs we would have lost our steel industry we would have lost every I mean
44:39 they had to pay hundreds like close to$ 500 billion dollars in tariffs and that
44:44 was all turning around and we have tremendous power with respect to China
44:51 but we don't have people that know anything about using it I had a great relationship but had the election been
44:56 uh different we wouldn't have had fentanyl coming and I was with she and
45:02 and we just had a very good relationship he was at maralago for three days it was amazing you know
45:09 we had a good B now I don't want to act naive oh I had you know these characters out there they'll say oh look he loves
45:15 China or likes it or at least wants to run it very strongly right and it was
45:21 very interesting I said now he's a smart guy is he a smart guy of course he's a smart guy he's a brilliant guy the prent
45:26 he called she brilliant look he runs 1.4 billion people with an iron head no he's not brilliant okay they want me to say
45:33 he's not a brilliant man uh he's a very tough guy he's a fierce person he's a
45:38 fierce person when he sees Biden he can't believe it okay can't believe it he says what the hell I think he thinks
45:45 that they're playing a joke on him but what's happening is we have tremendous power over China China has made right
45:53 now we have the largest deficit we've ever had with China like over a trillion dollarss that means they taking in more than a CH think of how bad that is too
45:59 much you you can't sustain that but we have tremendous power over CH China
46:05 built their military because of us they built all this they they took so much money out of our country we have great
46:11 power over China we can get along with China I will get along with China but they respected your president they
46:18 really did that he respected me and they don't respect this guy at all nobody
46:23 does nobody does when you take a look at what's going going on in Ukraine you
46:29 take a look at what's going on with Israel you take a look at all this stuff
46:34 it's just the whole world is out of control so uh Victor Orban prime
46:39 minister of Hungary is a uh very tough guy you know he's known as a strong man
46:44 they say oh he likes strong men I don't like strong men weak men I don't care I don't he's just a smart guy and tough he
46:51 didn't take uh illegal immigrants he said I want hungarians in my country I don't need to have my shot in centers
46:57 blown up you know make little statements like that but the European Union wasn't exactly thrilled with him and they asked
47:03 him recently they said what uh what has to be done to straighten out the world the whole world is blowing up he said
47:08 one simple thing elect Donald Trump as president when he was president China behaved Russia behaved everybody behaved
47:16 don't forget I stopped you probably never even even you guys northstream 2
47:21 was a pipeline being built nobody ever heard of it except me when I got in I stopped it Russia couldn't have their
47:28 pipeline serving Germany I said to Germany so we we're taking care of you with NATO and then you're giving them
47:34 the people that we're defending you against you're paying billions of dollars a month for oil oil and gas I
47:42 said this doesn't sound right the whole thing is crazy and I terminated the
47:48 pipeline it was dead and this guy came in and let him build it but the Russian Pipeline was dead and yet I got along
47:55 very well with Putin but you you got to be careful with Putin because Putin I'm watching him and he's doing things now that
48:03 aren't that aren't good that aren't good and he's dealing with somebody that has no clue how to play the game this guy
48:10 has no clue it's a very serious problem very serious problem it's dangerous
48:15 world let's talk about that in reference to Ukraine then um you've said often we
48:20 wouldn't be in this situation if I were president but we are now in this situation if you were president again
48:26 how do you deal with Ukraine how do you deal with Putin I think I deal very well with him we're in a much weaker position
48:33 because he's winning I mean look we can be nice um I asked Orban I said who's
48:39 winning you know if you watch the fake news you think although even they aren't saying it now because the spring
48:45 offensive never had the spring offensive was the opposite okay but I said who's winning he said they are he said they're
48:53 a Waring Nation they've fought Napoleon they fought Hitler Ukraine is a very small country
49:00 by comparison with far fewer people they're running out of soldiers you know
49:06 and uh I would get together I I I get along very well with zalinsky because
49:11 don't forget he was very honorable with impeachment hoax number one hoax they're all hoaxes everything they do is a hoax
49:19 have impeachment hoax number one impeachment hooks number two I won both of them very easily but unlike Richard
49:25 Nixon it wasn't who did didn't get impeached he left before the impeachment his greatest regret by the way is that
49:30 he didn't stay in fight you know that his greatest regret you know he never fought he wasn't impeached he was told
49:37 he was going to be impeached and he never stayed but the Republicans liked me more than they liked him but what
49:42 happens is um we have to get zilinsky was great because zalinski they called him and
49:49 they said when you had that phone that big magic phone convers think of the phone conversations in Washington and
49:55 here I am I got a call from one of my secretaries could you call him and congratulate him on his victory meaning
50:01 he just got elected president and I didn't do it I didn't do it I didn't do it after like 10 times I
50:08 said I'll call him thanks I got impeached I'm saying you know who that
50:13 was Rick Perry another genius greatest debater ever right Rick Perry and his
50:19 debating skills he calls me up and he says could you call him now he meant it
50:24 well because he he liked you know the energy I think it was the energy and stuff so I call him up and uh when they called him
50:33 and they asked him were you threatened by Trump he could have done a grand stand and said yes I felt it was very threatening now fortunately the the call
50:40 was taped if the call wasn't taped I might not be talking to you right now unless we're talking about a real estate project somewhere somehow you don't
50:46 cover them very big on your show but uh the call was taped and it was a perfect
50:51 call in fact when the Democrats heard it was taped they had already started the impeachment
50:57 they died when they heard Nancy Pelosi heard that call she said he didn't do
51:02 anything wrong she she they got into a but that call fortunately was taped meaning they had stenographers two
51:09 military stenographers who were incredible and they had every word of it down and it was a lie the whole thing was a lie but when they called zalinski
51:16 he could have said yes I was threatened and he didn't say that he said no that was a very nice call he
51:23 said nothing wrong that was very nice so I have a warm spot have we given him too much money uh yes we give him too much
51:30 well you're just mad about it you said you could Ed end it on day one I think I well not I said I could end it before I
51:36 get to the White House I expect to end it I think I can end it very quickly I get along very well with Putin and I get
51:42 along with zalinski and I would get him in a room and I will get it ended good I'll get it
51:49 ended and I have an exact plan as to how but I can't tell you that you know I can't tell you about like let me tell
51:55 you exactly let me lay out my cars no I'll get it ended Rachel mentioned the amount of money which turns the economy
52:01 we're $34 trillion in debt we've printed money we don't have uh which led to massive inflation how do you change that
52:08 and turn that around to average Americans out there who are struggling every single day worse and worse under Joe Biden's economy so we were doing
52:14 great we were energy independent we were soon going to be energy dominant I didn't want the Russian Pipeline to be
52:20 built because of the fact very simple I wanted to supply them with the energy the whole thing was all of we're going
52:26 to make make a fortune we have more Liquid Gold than any country in the world including Saudi Arabia and including and then I do anoir in Alaska
52:33 which is the biggest find it's as big as Saudi Arabia some people say it's bigger and Biden closes it up in his first week
52:41 the first apartment of interior the woman who the person in charge closed it
52:47 in her first day in office Ronald Reagan tried to get it he couldn't get it everybody tried to get it Bush I got it
52:54 and they closed it up but I'm going to reinstitute it very quickly it'll happen very fast but but think of it so we were
53:01 rocking and rolling we were energy independent we were soon going to be double the size we were in third place
53:07 and even beyond that when I took over we were leading you have to see a graph Russia Saudi Arabia above them Russia
53:14 second we're third and then we go like this I mean we were we were going to be
53:20 energy dominant we were doing things the way you have to solve it is through growth and cutting right Mr President
53:27 yes growth and cutting the problem I had is we were starting to really rock and roll we had the greatest economy ever
53:33 then we got hit with covid and if I didn't throw money at Co we would have had a depression like in 1929 and if I
53:40 don't win you're going to have a depression like in 1929 you know one of the I'll just say Scott uh one of the
53:48 the greatest analysts on Wall Street considered maybe the best he said the only reason the stock market's high is
53:53 because they think Trump is going to win listen I think that one of your strongest points is that you're a businessman and people love that you ran
53:59 this country like a business and I believe that if you got an office you will get the oil pipes going again we'll
54:06 get energy going and I believe that we will grow but it's really hard when you're a politician to cut your friend
54:12 melee in Argentina he cut he cut whole agencies and now they went from 25%
54:18 growth per month in inflation down to 8% per month so it works are you willing no
54:23 you know he's Mega you know that I know he is he's your friend I brought he's no he's my biggest fan he's he's a he's a
54:29 great make Argentina great again it works out perfectly right make no that's what he call he says he has hats make
54:34 Argentina great again but he has but but but he's cut agencies are you willing to
54:40 make those kinds of dramatic Cuts because I really think our we have young kids all of us I think their Futures are
54:47 on the line I mean as he said $34 trillion in debt I think that means we're paying almost a trillion dollars
54:53 in interest I'll give you an example every month give every year year you mentioned the kids
54:59 so we're going to cut the Department of Education let it be run locally we have
55:04 the department of educational Department other than to have a little tiny coordination you know it would be nice to make sure that everybody's teaching
55:11 English you know let them learn English okay I love this but no no we're cutting the Department of Education I was ready
55:17 to do it before and then again the co really if we didn't throw money at that
55:22 you would have had a depression we would have been in a depression and when I got out the stock market was higher than
55:28 when just before Co came in um so that will be the that will be the first going to Happ that's going to happen
55:34 immediately dep we're going to do like Department of interior there's so many things you can do one of the things
55:40 that's so bad for us is the Environmental agencies they make it impossible to do anything and so in
55:48 Louisiana they had these massive refineries that uh LG plants but massive
55:54 essentially refineries 14 15 years they've been trying to get permits I got
56:00 it done in one day one day I got the permit don't tell anybody please I got
56:05 it I didn't know who the hell was doing it in one case Japan was putting and by the way they're like 20 billion a
56:11 massive these are like the Empire State Building laid down times two on its side
56:16 all pipes I mean it's unbelievable on the coast in Louisiana and I got those
56:21 things the first one I got done in like 24 hours they worked on it for 14
56:27 years and it was terrible I mean what they were doing the environmental agencies have stopped doing they sto you
56:34 from doing business in this country and we did a great job so War on Americans
56:39 we asked viewers of Fox and Friends Weekend to submit some questions to ask you we'd love to ask you a few of these
56:45 questions on their behalf um I'll start with Lisa in Florida she says which Democrat Dead or Alive would you sit
56:50 down for dinner with to discuss ways to unify our country so he's not a Democrat
56:55 anymore but I used to get along really well with Joe Manion I got along with him and he uh we'd meet a lot he said
57:03 you're doing a great job you're a great president and when this impeachment Hox started happening he said I'll never
57:10 vote against you're a great and then he voted against me I never spoke to him again okay so that was one but that was
57:15 one that I sat down I'd sit down with anybody frankly I want to unify the country um Laura from Nebraska said I'm
57:23 the mother of two army officers um what are you going to do to rebuild our military and I would add to that um rip
57:29 out the woke stuff that's happening that all the vet in the service members see is embedded in our Pentagon right now
57:34 you know the military better than anybody I'd put him in charge I really would I often think of it he do a great
57:41 job I talked to him about it a little bit we talked about them easily we ended up doing good no the
57:47 show has to do worse if the show does worse if I see the Ring's going I'm going to steal them I'll steal all of
57:53 you frankly but uh no he's he would be unbelievable at defense he would be unbelievable at defense or at the VA the
58:00 VA was they did a good job though they ended up doing a good job you know at trying to undo a lot of that stuff oh they're undoing it yes they are we did
58:06 two things number one I got the right to fire people we fired 9,000 sadists and you know horrible people they were
58:11 beating up these people are sick the other thing I got where you could go out if you couldn't get good service you go
58:17 out and this is Pete was driving me crazy about this he you know we know each other a little bit but
58:24 we know each other only in a a positive way he would call up and say soldiers are waiting for three and four months to
58:30 see a doctor they couldn't say it and I got it actually approved through Congress and now what they're doing is they're ending that where if you if it
58:38 took more think of going to the the hospital or the doctor with your kids your husband was great by the way he's
58:44 great he'd fit into this panel very well right there where is he oh look at him
58:49 oh I saw a guy with a pink shirt I didn't look up and I knew he would never wear a pink shirt so I didn't wow good
58:56 I'm glad I'm glad I said the right thing he is he's great he's a great you know he's a great Champion he climbs those
59:01 streets for years I want to ask you what Reena and Liberty Maine asks your by the way your your sleep schedule your diet
59:08 these are things of Legend So she asks uh president Trump what is the very first thing you do every
59:13 morning um so I don't sleep a lot I don't say that as a Badge of Courage you
59:19 know a lot of people I don't sleep but and they maybe do um I I rarely eat
59:25 breakfast I don't it's funny I love food but I don't necessar I'm too anxious I
59:30 really enjoy life it's crazy I shouldn't enjoy life I get indicted I get impeached I get somebody said how do you
59:37 live you know the most often question I get two questions number one I get will
59:43 they do it again you know what that means very ominous I said they're going
59:48 to try because they can't help themselves they're bad but we hope we're
59:53 going to have them blocked okay the other question is how do you do it how do you stand up and you get impeached
59:59 you get indicted you get this you get convicted of and they say how
1:00:07 do you do it I get that question from very big like you see the cars out here you see the biggest people all over the
1:00:14 biggest people on Wall Street they say how do you do it how do you do it they get a letter from the secc that's a
1:00:20 friendly civil letter and they can't sleep for two weeks they say how do you do it and that's one I've never been
1:00:27 able to answer I don't know the reason um I think I can do that is because I I
1:00:32 I know how great this country can be and it's so big it's such an important thing that I'm doing I enjoy doing it I have
1:00:39 obstacles these obstacles it would be so nice not to have a phony Russia Russia Russia hooks look at the Russia Russia
1:00:46 Russia scam it was just a scam for two years it went on and you want to do
1:00:52 business with Russia make a lot of money you know get it's good it's they they forced and now the worst thing
1:00:58 happened Russia has been forced into the arms of China this is something that if you're 10 years old studying history you
1:01:06 learn never let Russia and China get together well between Obama and and
1:01:12 Biden they forced Russia I had it opposite problem I had though I I had
1:01:17 the hoax I had the hoax going on it was harder for me I'd say to Putin you know
1:01:22 he would actually say to me he said we could make wonderful deals for our countries but it's very tough I said it's very tough for me because if I made
1:01:29 a deal they'd say oh the Russia deal the Russia hoax you know he loves Putin and all that stuff so we understood it but
1:01:35 we got along very well that we had a we had a very good relationship and Ukraine and and the
1:01:41 Ukraine war has obviously brought Russia and China together closer right it's brought a tremendous it's an access it's
1:01:48 a new access it's also brought it's also brought uh Iran into the picture and
1:01:53 it's brought a little bit North Korea back into to the picture you know I got along great with him Kim Jong-un when I went to meet him remember the famous
1:02:00 couple of meetings I got along great with him I know him quite well and he's a very smart guy they hate when I say
1:02:05 that but uh we had it going so good and now all these people that are against us
1:02:11 have become like it's become like a partnership and a lot of bad things are happening uh the Taiwan situation is
1:02:18 yeah you can give them a couple of more minutes fellas that's all right if okay somebody's saying to end it we'll give
1:02:23 them a couple of more minutes okay for Sean in honor of show with this um when you when you look at what's
1:02:31 happening now the whole world is lining up against us and our allies are getting very weak for us they're no longer for
1:02:39 us but uh watch what's happening with China and Taiwan that's a big deal
1:02:44 that's a big deal may I follow up he said talk to us about you just love life and you and you care about this country
1:02:50 people ask you why do you do this how can you do this I mean not to mention the rally after rally the energy but
1:02:55 maybe the the question isn't how do you do this over and over but how does your family do this all the obstacles all you
1:03:02 know these are these are things you care about your Ambitions for the country what about everybody around you so I think in many ways it's tougher on them
1:03:08 than is on me they're good people all of them everyone everyone uh I have a
1:03:14 wonderful wife who has to listen to this stuff all the time they do that for this reason they do that all these salacious
1:03:22 names that they put in of these people and I'm not even allowed to defend
1:03:28 myself because of a gag order think of it but they put this stuff in to create
1:03:34 Havoc these are bad people I know everything they're do and I know every move they make I get it but a lot of
1:03:39 people don't but it's tougher I think it's probably in many ways it's tougher
1:03:44 on my family than is in me you know my sons I mean they're great and they work
1:03:50 hard and they uh Don's become pretty right he's become and you know they
1:03:55 would have to this this young guy Don all he wanted to do is help the country and he's been in uh Federal grand juries
1:04:05 and things at the beginning for hours and hours about Russia think of it I'll
1:04:11 never forget Adam Schiff who's a real SLE bag probably will become a senator it's hard to believe but a real SLE bag
1:04:19 he comes out of a meeting an intelligence meeting and he says now think of how bad you are you make up
1:04:25 with Hillary and the others he knew it was a hoax Russia Russia Russia so he knew it was a hoax comes out and he
1:04:31 looks very solemn you know watermelon head with the thinnest neck I've ever seen he's not going to be a football player his neck is holding up this
1:04:39 massive watermelon but he comes in just one of the more unattractive people I know you're not supposed to say that so
1:04:44 that's okay I'll be out of politics but he comes out and he says you know no stupid guy and he says with you know
1:04:52 such dignity Donald Trump Jr will go to jail because of what he's
1:04:59 done with Russia there is no Russia Russia Russia deal and he's saying that my son who's a young guy is going to go
1:05:06 to jail and I call my son and I'm watching this it's big headline shiff
1:05:11 predicts remember when he said he has all this ination he had nothing cuz the kid didn't know anything about Russia
1:05:17 right he knew less about Russia than uh your husband knows okay unless they had any trees in Russia that you climb so so
1:05:25 d Trump Jr will go to jail because of what he's done with Russia and he knows it's a hoax he's talking about a young
1:05:31 man going to jail about something that he knows is a hoax how bad do you have to be and I
1:05:39 call him up I say Don are you okay yeah I don't know what they're saying he didn't even know you know he didn't have
1:05:46 any idea what was going it's a shame and he became tougher I mean you almost two
1:05:52 things happen you either become tougher or you go into a and you put your thumb in your mouth and you say mommy take me
1:05:59 home right well and he chose not to do that well I'm I'm glad that that's the case and by the way as a having come
1:06:05 from a political family and my husband having run for office that what's happened to your family in particular I
1:06:11 just breaks my heart how's Madia doing with she's fine but I think it's very hard for her I mean she's fine but it's
1:06:17 you know she has to read all this crap stuff that shouldn't even be put in the trial the judge should have never
1:06:23 allowed it to be in the trial and she has to read all this stuff what about Baron people started to focus on Baron
1:06:28 recently he's he's amazing actually in a certain way you know he's tall good-look guy he's a very good
1:06:34 student and uh he's he's applied to colleges and gets into everywhere he
1:06:40 goes you know he's he's very sought after from the standpoint he's a very smart guy he's very tall guy but he's
1:06:46 and he's a he's a great kid he's he's cool he's pretty cool I tell you you know it's very interesting the colleges
1:06:53 you know 6 months ago you look at a college and you sort of want a certain college and then you see all of these
1:06:58 colleges are riding mhm yeah yeah and maybe you want to go to a different kind of a college because there's plenty of
1:07:04 colleges that we also like that are different and they don't Riot um this is
1:07:10 Sharon from Alabama and I think her question actually ties into what we were just talking about which how do you do this and I know that you've said before
1:07:16 that you've been sustained by the prayers of lots of Americans I've seen pictures of people praying over you it's
1:07:22 incredible actually her question is um she says you you've been faced with so much adversity and persecution for years
1:07:28 what's your relationship with God like and how do you pray that's Sharon from Alabama okay so I think it's good I do
1:07:37 very well with the evangelicals I love the evangelicals and I have more people
1:07:43 saying they pray for me I can't even believe it and they are
1:07:48 so uh committed and they're so they're so believing they they they say Sir
1:07:53 you're going to be okay I pray for you every night I mean EV everybody almost I
1:07:59 can't say everybody but almost everybody that sees me they say it it's such a beautiful thing you know what's a
1:08:04 beautiful thing too when you look at all of this bad stuff going on they have nothing to look up to they have no God
1:08:11 they have no anything they kill people they beat people they push people into Subways
1:08:17 they so there's just nothing there religion is such a great thing it's so
1:08:23 it keeps you you know there's something to be good about you want to be good you want to it's so important and I don't
1:08:30 know if it's explained right I don't know if I'm explaining it right now but when you have something like that you
1:08:35 want to be good you want to go to heaven okay you want to go to heaven if you don't have Heaven you almost say what's
1:08:42 what's the reason why do I have to be good let's not be good what difference is or they try to create Heaven here uh
1:08:49 ask a question real quick well and where we started um attorney general what are you that I mean we talked about how how
1:08:55 you fix the doj how you bring Justice back to this country when we talk to people people's faith in the system is
1:09:01 shattered I mean absolutely shattered we've seen it in your fundraising number should so who do you who do you choose what kind do you have a name that you're
1:09:07 that top on your list I do I do have a couple and one in particular but uh I
1:09:13 made a lot of good choices I got that one wrong I was very loyal to one
1:09:18 because he was the first Senator to endorse me as soon as conflict came up
1:09:23 he ran for the Hills and actually the second one he ran for the hills when he heard that he was going to be impeached
1:09:29 they were going to impeach him and uh he was like a different person I had to get rid of him um and I would say that that
1:09:36 was the one thing one of the truly important positions as attorney general and I was very disappointed at both of
1:09:43 those attorney generals uh Jeff sessions was uh you know I don't blame myself too
1:09:51 much he was a some position in Alabama
1:09:56 and he wanted to be so bad and he was the first Senator to endorse me and again I was sort of a civilian I didn't
1:10:01 have a lot of people I didn't know that many senators and he went to a rally in Mobile the fact is that we had 72,000
1:10:08 people so it wasn't that big a shot but but he came to me and he said I'd love
1:10:13 to be attorney general and I didn't see it and then he came three four times and I said you know just out of loyalty I
1:10:20 did it and he ran for the hills because it's nasty this is a nasty business this is a nasty world how do you find people
1:10:28 bar bar was threatened in all fairness to him he didn't want you know he was
1:10:34 attorney general he was a respected guy and they said they were going to impeach him I understand that I said I get
1:10:41 impeached twice and my numbers went up which is unusual I said it's not so bad to be impeached what are they going to
1:10:47 impeach you he had no idea what they were going to impeach but he was going to be impeached they didn't know what they didn't know why it's like they took
1:10:53 me to trial there's no crime they were trying to devise the crime during the trial that's how bad it was but with bar
1:11:01 and he you know he let me down he let me down he let down he let down our country he endorsed me the other day as you saw
1:11:07 right but uh he let down our country it takes a brave person to do
1:11:13 it people don't want to be impeached they don't want to be indicted by these Scoundrels who are much more evil than
1:11:22 people I'm telling you China and Russia they're not the the big we have a problem from within that's really bad so
1:11:30 he let us down the the key to really good government where we had like lighthiser and some of these people that
1:11:36 were really good it's the person that's at the Top If you get the right person it's like magic it's like in real estate
1:11:44 you know you put a good super in a building the building runs well you put a bad one in it doesn't it's the same thing a little bit slightly larger scale
1:11:51 but we had great people we you know I rebuilt the military we did things that were were amazing one of the things that
1:11:57 that the people that watch your show should know we defeated Isis quickly I was told it would take 5 years I did it
1:12:03 in a matter of weeks right fast and they did it fantastically and I got to know
1:12:09 the real fighting generals there's not woke in the military there's woke at the top they want there to be woke but these guys aren't meant for woke I really
1:12:15 don't I really think you know they're like you they're like this guy he's doing a great job by the way I don't
1:12:21 know him I don't know him like you but the whole combination it works are you going to fire those generals the the
1:12:27 woke generals at the top cuz people been talking about it yes I would get rid of them yeah but see now I know them I
1:12:32 didn't know them before but you know I came in what do I know I was a New York real estate person but no I'd fire them
1:12:38 I would fire them you can't have woke military you said it's so great you know you you have you need people that want
1:12:43 to win they want to win Wars that's what their purpose is to win Wars not to be woke and but we do have great military
1:12:51 uh you look at what we did look at the I was the only one in 78 years or something I didn't start any wars I
1:12:58 finished Wars I got out of Syria I took our soldiers home I would have moved a
1:13:03 lot of them out of Germany you know I was going to move them out of Germany not all of them but I would have moved we have 45,000 so that's like you know
1:13:10 what we do by doing that we're giving Germany this massive shot in the arm and then they don't treat us well in
1:13:16 trade but uh we have a great military and there's nothing woke about it other
1:13:22 than those top guys I used to watch Millie sit there in Congress and talk about you know he's trying to understand
1:13:27 this and that mind I won't get into it but certain Minds I say is this guy
1:13:33 crazy but it's one of those things uh I've gotten to know a lot of the generals because of the things we did
1:13:40 and uh we had some unbelievable winds as you know we had some winds with terrorists the biggest terrorist the two
1:13:46 biggest terrorists in the world ever I took out you know so we had some uh we
1:13:52 have some great things planned it's very important the people that run the agencies if you
1:13:59 get the good ones and I think I have great ones slated but if you get the good ones it's like magic and we had
1:14:05 mostly good ones you think more about the bad ones we had some bad ones too well Mr President You' had an eventful
