1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: Clay Travis here, and we got a lot of requests

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: for this, so I thought it made sense. We do

3
00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,600
Speaker 1: a lot on the Wins and Losses podcast where it's

4
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: a long form conversation, and one reason I like to

5
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,239
Speaker 1: do it is because you're able to go back and

6
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,640
Speaker 1: listen to it, and they're really kind of timeless. Well,

7
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:18,000
Speaker 1: we've had the President of the United States on twice

8
00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: and we've spent nearly an hour with him, right around

9
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:24,119
Speaker 1: fifty minutes, and I thought, what if we have for

10
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,800
Speaker 1: perpetuity those interviews, so you can go here what that

11
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,080
Speaker 1: interview sounded like, and there's an easy way to find

12
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: them in the years ahead as a part of the

13
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: Wins and lost His podcast. So we are putting together

14
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:42,160
Speaker 1: Donald Trump from August of on our radio program, and

15
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:47,239
Speaker 1: we're also putting Donald Trump from September of our radio program,

16
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 1: combining both of those. You can listen to them now

17
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 1: in one place, as many of you are doing, and

18
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: that podcast will begin now. Fox Sports Radio has the

23
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: the United States, Donald Trump, Mr President, thanks for starting

24
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: your morning with us. We're excited to have you. Well,

25
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: thank you very much, Clay. It's an honor. You have

26
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: a great show. Well, I appreciate that. Now. I know

27
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 1: you're a long time sports fan. So there's a lot

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: of things I want to get into with you, but

29
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 1: I want to start. You've been a big supporter of

30
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 1: Tom Brady for a very long time. What were your

31
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: thoughts when he decided to move to Tampa Bay And

32
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: what do you think he's going to be capable of

33
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: down there? Will you be rooting for him? Well, I

34
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: think he's going to do a great job. You know,

35
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,399
Speaker 1: he's a winner. He knows how to win. That's a

36
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: big thing. And he's just been a great quarterback with

37
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: a great coach. It's a great combination and a great

38
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: owner in Bob Kraft. Frankly, and he probably wanted to change.

39
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: He wanted to change, and I think, you know, he

40
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: had plenty of teams to go to, and then he

41
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: picked one with from what I understand, a good offensive

42
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: line and very good receivers. He looked at that closely.

43
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: I think he probably had other choices where they had players.

44
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 1: I think his biggest thing is he wants to win.

45
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: And from what I know, and I know the ownership

46
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: of the team, they'll do whatever they have to because

47
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: they're fantastic people, the owners of the team at the

48
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 1: Tom's own now and uh. I think he's going to

49
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 1: do well in Tampa Bay. I think he'll do well.

50
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 1: I think he'll I don't know why it would be

51
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,320
Speaker 1: a surprise, but perhaps it will be. But I think

52
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 1: he's going to surprise a lot of people. I think

53
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: he's going to do great. We're talking to the President

54
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 1: of the United States, Donald Trump, Mr President, What do

55
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,760
Speaker 1: you hear about the NFL. I know there's been a

56
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 1: lot of talk. You mentioned that you talked to several

57
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: different owners, Bob Kraft in particular. How confident are you

58
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 1: that come September ten, with the schedule the opener between

59
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: the Texans and the Chiefs, that the NFL will be

60
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 1: underway and everybody out there who's an NFL fan will

61
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: be able to watch. Well. They want to open, and

62
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 1: they want to open badly, and they've been working with government.

63
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,760
Speaker 1: I would say this, if they don't stand for the

64
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: national anthem, I hope they don't open but other than that,

65
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: I'd love to see the open and we're doing everything

66
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,640
Speaker 1: possible for getting them open. And they can protest in

67
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: other ways. They shouldn't protest our flag or our country.

68
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: Have you talked have you talked with owners about your

69
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: hope that they're going to stand for the national anthem?

70
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,680
Speaker 1: The players, Uh, they know my they know my my

71
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,119
Speaker 1: feelings very well. They've been expressed. I think it's been

72
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,240
Speaker 1: horrible for basketball. Look at the basketball writings that down

73
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,920
Speaker 1: down to very low numbers, very very low. People are

74
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 1: angry about it. They don't realize that they don't want

75
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 1: They have enough politics with guys like me, they don't

76
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: need more. As they're driving down going up for the shot,

77
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: you know, they don't need it. And there was a

78
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 1: nastiness about the NBA the way it was done too.

79
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 1: So I think that they the NBA is in trouble.

80
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 1: I think it's in big trouble, bigger trouble that they understand.

81
00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: And frankly, ice hockey, which is doing very well, they

82
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: didn't do that. They respected the more as they respected

83
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: what they're supposed to be doing, and they're actually doing

84
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: very well. As I understand it, I don't have much

85
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: time to be watching this stuff. Just so you understand,

86
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 1: it's just what I'm reading and what I'm seeing. But

87
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 1: I saw he was with respect. I did not like

88
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: what baseball did even a little bit. And again, you

89
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,039
Speaker 1: have to stand for your flag, and you have to

90
00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: respect your flag and your country. You're making millions of

91
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: dollars a year to be playing the sport you'd be

92
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: playing anyway. If you didn't make they'd be playing it

93
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 1: on the weekends. And they got to They have to

94
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 1: respect their country. And if they don't, frankly, if the

95
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: NFL didn't open, I'd be very happy. If they don't

96
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 1: stand for the flag and stand strongly, I would be

97
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 1: very happy if they didn't open with without that. And

98
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 1: with that being said, i'd love to see them open.

99
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: We're talking to Donald Trump, the President of the United States,

100
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,560
Speaker 1: and President Trump. When you look at the n b

101
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 1: A and you just reference the n b A and

102
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 1: all of the political statements that they're making, it seems

103
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 1: like every time you send a tweet, a executive, a coach,

104
00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: a player, somebody will come out and immediately fire back

105
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 1: at you. But yet the NBA is taking billions of

106
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 1: dollars from China. There are all sorts of human rights

107
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,919
Speaker 1: violations going on in China right now, and none of

108
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 1: the players and none of the coaches will say a

109
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 1: word about that. Does it feel hypocritical that they will

110
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,040
Speaker 1: rip the United States, they won't stand for the anthem,

111
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: they'll rip you as the president, but they won't say

112
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,200
Speaker 1: a negative word about China at all. Well, I haven't

113
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 1: noticed them sending things back at me, but I will

114
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,600
Speaker 1: say that, you know, I wouldn't be that surprised. Some

115
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: are very nasty, very very nasty, and frankly, very dumb.

116
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: But I haven't noticed that. But I will say this,

117
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 1: the way they the way they catered to China, the

118
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: way they bowed to China, it's a disgrace, frankly. And

119
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,359
Speaker 1: they make a lot more money here than they do

120
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: from China. But we have a system that allows you

121
00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 1: to disrespect your system. And that's uh. Too bad for them,

122
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,040
Speaker 1: Too bad for them. They don't appreciate what they have here.

123
00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,800
Speaker 1: But no that what they did with China, and what

124
00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: China did to us with the with the China virus,

125
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 1: and and the rest of the world, by the way,

126
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: you know, I mean the whole rest of the world.

127
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: They stopped it from going in and spreading in China,

128
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 1: but they didn't stop it from spreading in the US

129
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: and in other parts of the world, including Europe, but

130
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: other parts in the world countries. So Uh, I watched

131
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:25,800
Speaker 1: that whole thing with the general manager of the team

132
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: was at Houston. Yeah, Darryl Moore, the general manager who

133
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 1: said that he wanted to free Hong Kong. And speaking

134
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,920
Speaker 1: of Hong Kong right now, you've got I see the

135
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 1: front page of the Wall Street Journal. The China went

136
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: in and arrested a ton of pro democracy media members, uh,

137
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,320
Speaker 1: including Jimmy Lai, I believe, who was one of the

138
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:47,560
Speaker 1: most active participants in all of the Hong Kong democracy movement.

139
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: For people out there who aren't paying attention, why should

140
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 1: Americans care about what China is doing in in Hong

141
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: Kong and maybe the threats to Taiwan as well well. Look,

142
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: for years, Hong Kong was making a lot of money

143
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: that we could have been made, that we could have

144
00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:03,920
Speaker 1: been making in the New York Stock Exchange and our

145
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 1: great exchanges. You know, we have the biggest exchanges. We

146
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: have the Great Dollar, the dollar, which I've made stronger,

147
00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:11,640
Speaker 1: much stronger, than it used to be. I hope people

148
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 1: recognize that in the world of sports, our country is

149
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,000
Speaker 1: in good shape and we're coming back so strong. It's

150
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: incredible when you look at the numbers that we're producing

151
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,160
Speaker 1: and putting up. We're coming back very strong. And we

152
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: say millions and millions of lives by closing down and restarting.

153
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,400
Speaker 1: But I will say that with Hong Kong, we gave

154
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 1: tremendous incentives and costs us a fortune to keep Hong

155
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 1: Kong viable and going. And now what we've done, I've

156
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: ended everything. I've ended all of that. There's no incentive whatsoever.

157
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: We're not sending money through incentives back to Hong Kong.

158
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 1: We're gonna make a lot more money because they're not

159
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,240
Speaker 1: going to be competitive. It won't be a competitive market,

160
00:07:49,320 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 1: can't be with the government running it, so they're going

161
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: to have a different kind of a deal. And we're

162
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,240
Speaker 1: not participating from the standpoint of we're not we're not

163
00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 1: spending you know, billions of dollars on making life comfortable

164
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: with them for freedom. And that was okay, we do

165
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,360
Speaker 1: that if they were free, but they're not free. You know,

166
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: it's a part, it's a part when you look, I mean,

167
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 1: take a look at a map. It's attached to China.

168
00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 1: You know. So it's a little bit tough from certain standpoints,

169
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: but we will do very well by not having a

170
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: good competitor. I guess it'll be a competitor, but on

171
00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: a much smoiler scale. I know you have a good

172
00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: relationship with Chairman z over in China, but you mentioned

173
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,439
Speaker 1: the China virus, the virus that is obviously swept around

174
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 1: the nation. You mentioned Hong Kong and the challenge to

175
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,320
Speaker 1: democracy there. Do you feel a bit disappointed in your

176
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: friend Chairman z and how he has responded with China

177
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,560
Speaker 1: with the virus and also with Hong Kong. Well, I

178
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,880
Speaker 1: used to have a very good relationship with him. We

179
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 1: made a trade deal. It was a great deal for us,

180
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 1: you know. To look, China's ripped off our country for

181
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 1: thirty years, like nobody ever, Nobody's ever done anything like

182
00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: what I've done, And we had a bunch of people

183
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: sitting in the office that I'm in now that allowed

184
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 1: it to happen. We're losing we were losing five hundred billion,

185
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:14,440
Speaker 1: six hundred billion, billion, not million billion dollars a year

186
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:20,439
Speaker 1: in trade with China. The deficit was massive, probably averaged

187
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,000
Speaker 1: two or three hundred billion dollars. Over many years, we

188
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 1: we helped rebuild China. Look, if it wasn't for us,

189
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,360
Speaker 1: they wouldn't have China as you know it today. We

190
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: gave so much money so stupidly. How these people allowed

191
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 1: it to happen. And I came in and I charged

192
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: him tariffs and even more than that. And but I

193
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,440
Speaker 1: had a great relationship with presidents she I like them,

194
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,600
Speaker 1: But I don't feel the same way now. I've you know,

195
00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: every once in a while you will say, and you've

196
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,400
Speaker 1: had it, You've had it very well and play. I understand.

197
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 1: I know you indirectly. I know you, and you have

198
00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,320
Speaker 1: your likes and dislikes very strongly. So do I. But

199
00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: I didn't like what what took place. This is not

200
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,719
Speaker 1: trade this is this is a thousand times the trade deal.

201
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 1: What happened with all of the death and all of

202
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,480
Speaker 1: the world, I mean, the world had to shut down.

203
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,240
Speaker 1: It's a disgrace what happened. You look at some of

204
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: these countries in Europe, which is devastated. Look at what's

205
00:10:13,160 --> 00:10:17,120
Speaker 1: going on in Africa with this horrible disease. So you know,

206
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: I certainly feel I certainly feel differently. I had a

207
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:23,719
Speaker 1: very very good relationship and I haven't spoken to him

208
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 1: in a long time. It's a different it's a much different.

209
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 1: We have a much different relationship with China now than

210
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: we did for years where they ripped us off and

211
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: then I stopped that. They were having the worst year

212
00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,839
Speaker 1: they had in sixty seven years because I charged them

213
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: tariffs and we're making a lot of money. I was

214
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: giving a lot of money to farmers. They were targeted.

215
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,560
Speaker 1: They were targeting farmers. I gave twenty eight billion dollars,

216
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: that was the amount, and it came all out of China,

217
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: and the farmers are doing great because of it. Otherwise

218
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 1: they would have been all out of business. But you know,

219
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 1: I treated them as you would do it. But I

220
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 1: still had a good relationship. But once the once the

221
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: plague came in from China, I go at the plague.

222
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: But once the plague came in from China, the relationship changed,

223
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: no question about it. It It would be it would be

224
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 1: hard to believe that it wouldn't change. We're talking to

225
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: the President of the United States, Donald Trump, Mr President,

226
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:19,600
Speaker 1: much less serious in terms of the plague. Although the

227
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: virus is impacting many different parts of sports in America,

228
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,760
Speaker 1: including potentially college football. I know you're a big college

229
00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: football fan. You went to the L. S U Alabama

230
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: game this past year, Joe Burrow against two of talking

231
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 1: about low a great game. You went to the national

232
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 1: title game where Clemson played against L. S U. Why

233
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,719
Speaker 1: is it important for college football to be played and

234
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: what do you think you can do to help that happen. Well,

235
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: first of all, those those people, the people in that sport,

236
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: it's just like incredible people. And you know, like some

237
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: of the coaches like Nick Saban and coach Oh, how

238
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: about coach O. He's amazing, he's central casting. Right, you're

239
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: doing a football movie. You got to pick him as

240
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: you coach, right, and did put him in the movie? Uh?

241
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: And Lou Holtz is just a fantastic guy, a friend

242
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: of mine who has been a supporter from the beginning.

243
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: And you know, just just so many others. They're they're

244
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:16,000
Speaker 1: just great people and they want to play football and

245
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: they know better than anyone else. The other thing is

246
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 1: that somebody who's explaining I had actually a great one

247
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: of the great doctors said, these people are so powerful

248
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 1: and so strong, not lots of body fat, although you

249
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 1: could take a couple of offensive alignemen perhaps and dispute that,

250
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: but not a lot of body fat. Maybe none in

251
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:39,400
Speaker 1: some cases, you know, and they're very healthy people. They

252
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,680
Speaker 1: you know, people don't realize it's a tiny percentage of

253
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 1: people that that get sick and uh, they're old. It

254
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: just attacks old people, especially old people with bad heart

255
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: diabetes or some kind of a physical problem, a weight problem.

256
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,920
Speaker 1: Is there wonderful that I'm of a perfect perfect physic

257
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 1: osfestim and so great? Right, that's right? I was zero percent.

258
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: Didn't have zero per somebody? Somebody said zero percent body fat?

259
00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be nice? But no, But this attacks older

260
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: people very viciously, by the way it can be if

261
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: it's the wrong person. But you know, these football players

262
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: are very young, strong people and physically, I mean the

263
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 1: physically an extraordinary shape. So they're not going to have

264
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: a problem. You're not going to see people, you know,

265
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 1: couldn't it be? Could it happened? But I doubt it.

266
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:35,319
Speaker 1: You're not going to see people dying. And many people

267
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,120
Speaker 1: get it, and they have like kids, they get it.

268
00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: They have the sniffles young kids. Almost none you have

269
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:43,480
Speaker 1: a serious problem with it. I mean literally, you look,

270
00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 1: I think I said, the state of California, almost nobody

271
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: that's young had a like zero had a problem with

272
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: meaning a serious problem with this disease. I mean, they

273
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: get better very quickly, if they get it at all.

274
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 1: So I think football's making a tragic mistake. And you know,

275
00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: it's interesting when it opens. When I went to that game,

276
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: it was incredible. I went to a couple of them,

277
00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,200
Speaker 1: and I never really did the big time college football.

278
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 1: I went to an ivy League school, it wasn't quite

279
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: the same. But when I went to Alabama and I

280
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: went to L s U. And you know, these stadiums

281
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: are massive. You have no idea about that. There's much

282
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: bigger crowds in the NFL. You know, in the NFL

283
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 1: you have sixty and here we had I think a

284
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen thousand people. And you go to see

285
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 1: these games and it's it's it's brilliant football. It's great football.

286
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: It's the atmosphere. There's nothing like it. And you can't

287
00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: have empty seats. You know, if I had five empty seats,

288
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:45,840
Speaker 1: for instance, they said, when I do a rally, sir,

289
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 1: the reason I won't do them, because you can't have

290
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,160
Speaker 1: one seat and then seven around that seat, sir, have

291
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 1: to be empty. Oh that'll look great. You know, you

292
00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,360
Speaker 1: have one person and everything's very empty around them. You

293
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: can't do that. Uh, And I don't think. I'm not

294
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 1: sure that college football can do it. But we'll have

295
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 1: to see, you know, some sports I see. I think

296
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 1: golf has not been hurt visually by In fact, I

297
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: think golf looks more beautiful if you want to know

298
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: the truth, you know, instead of a lot of people.

299
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,000
Speaker 1: You know, the cheering is good, and certainly I guess

300
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:18,440
Speaker 1: the income is good and all. But golf works. You

301
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: know what works as UFC works very well. UFC. I

302
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 1: watched that the other night, and they light up the stage,

303
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: they light up the cage and it's, you know, really bright.

304
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: They darken the arena, maybe put a little silk around it.

305
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:34,440
Speaker 1: Who knows, But that works, and other sports don't work.

306
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,000
Speaker 1: Basketball is not working. I think basketball is not working

307
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: because of the way they treated our flag and our anthem.

308
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: If you want another truth, but it doesn't seem to

309
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: have anything. And I just I looked at it and

310
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: I couldn't watch it. And baseball I haven't I haven't

311
00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 1: made a ruling on that yet. In terms of my

312
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 1: own I haven't had much of a chance to watch it.

313
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 1: But some sports are working okay and some sports aren't.

314
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,320
Speaker 1: But I thought golf look really good for the p

315
00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,880
Speaker 1: g A. I didn't miss the fans, and I think that,

316
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 1: uh probably UFC was a very good one. I am

317
00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 1: not impressed. Somebody tell me hockey works okay, and but

318
00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 1: those sports are meant more for fans. I really believe that.

319
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,680
Speaker 1: I think they meant more for spans. I think basketball

320
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 1: is going to need its fans back. From what I'm saying,

321
00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 1: it looks very dull. I know. I know you're ready

322
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 1: for the economy to be back rolling in. Sports are

323
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: a big part of that, and schools opening are also

324
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: a big part of that. I'm gonna ask you about both.

325
00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: But I also wonder do you ever think to yourself,

326
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 1: I should play a trick on the media and say

327
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: the exact opposite of what I actually believe so they'll

328
00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 1: support it. Because it seems like every time you come

329
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: out like you say schools should open, and the media

330
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,080
Speaker 1: immediately says, oh, schools can open. But if you had said, hey,

331
00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: we can't open schools I feel like the media would

332
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 1: have said, oh, we gotta open schools. The president's crazy.

333
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: Do you ever think about that because they talk about

334
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: it all the time. Nobody else does. I say, Look,

335
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 1: I could have had the wall built very easy. You know,

336
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,480
Speaker 1: we're building a wall. But it was getting it like

337
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,719
Speaker 1: was pulling teeth, and the Democrats opposed, etcetera, etcetera. Like

338
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: you know, you watched that, and now it's being built

339
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:14,400
Speaker 1: up to two and fifties, two hundred and seventy seven miles.

340
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: It will be done by the end of the year,

341
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:18,160
Speaker 1: a little bit after the end of the year. It's

342
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,159
Speaker 1: incredible the impact it said. Anyway, if I would have

343
00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: said I don't want a wall, they would have given

344
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 1: it to immediately. If I this hydroxychloroquine, A lot of

345
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:29,320
Speaker 1: doctors swear by it, by my saying it's good. I

346
00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 1: took it for two weeks. You know, there's a little

347
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: outbreak around Washington, and I said, let me have something.

348
00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 1: And I took it for two weeks and it was fine.

349
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:37,679
Speaker 1: You know, it was great. I didn't have it, I

350
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 1: didn't get it, and I had no problem whatsoever with it.

351
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:43,160
Speaker 1: You know, it's been around for a long time. It's

352
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: a hilaria pill actually and lupus and it causes no problem.

353
00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,600
Speaker 1: But as soon as I came out with it, they said, oh,

354
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't work, and they went crazy. They still are

355
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,200
Speaker 1: on Twitter. It's number one all the time, which is phony.

356
00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:00,199
Speaker 1: It's number one all the time and trending hydroxy you know,

357
00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 1: negative hydroxy stuff. If I would have said I don't

358
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,560
Speaker 1: believe in hydroxychloroque and it's terrible with zinc and with

359
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 1: you know, the ZPEC is this remind said. If I

360
00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,280
Speaker 1: would have said I don't believe in it, it doesn't work,

361
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 1: it would be the hottest thing going right now. Uh No, No,

362
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:17,720
Speaker 1: I say it. I say it all the time. We

363
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,720
Speaker 1: could say it about a lot of different things, even religion.

364
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 1: I when I held the Bible in front of a

365
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 1: church that the the agitators and anarchists, you know they

366
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 1: call them protesters, they tried to burn down a church

367
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: and I held a Bible up in front of the church,

368
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,199
Speaker 1: and they said it was a terrible thing I did so,

369
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: I said, I even affect religion negatively, Okay. I hold

370
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 1: the Bible in front of a church that they tried

371
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: to burn down the day before, and they say, isn't

372
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: he a terrible human being? And I said, I've affected religion,

373
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: hydroxy and just about anything else, maybe even your show

374
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 1: after today, that will be the end. You've got these

375
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 1: great ratings going. I see Clay, and you have the

376
00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 1: hell of your show. Maybe I will have destroyed your show.

377
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,479
Speaker 1: But you know the injuriesult Our country now is so sot.

378
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 1: Our military has been rebuilt, our taxes have been cut

379
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: way back, and regulations and what I've done for the

380
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 1: vets nobody's ever done, nobody has ever even come close

381
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 1: to doing. And you know so many other things We've

382
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: done more than anybody, including even space force right space.

383
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: So we've done a lot. But we have to fight hard.

384
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: Probably I have to fight harder than a lot of

385
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: other people. Last question for you, because I know you've

386
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: got a ton of things to go. There's talk that

387
00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is going to announce his vice president either

388
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 1: today or tomorrow. It seems like it's dragged on for

389
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 1: some time. Who do you think he's gonna pick? Who

390
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: should he pick? I know you like playing the political game.

391
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: You weren't a politician for a long time. If you

392
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,640
Speaker 1: were sitting back on your couch watching television and following

393
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:47,840
Speaker 1: this election, what do you think he's gonna do? What

394
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 1: do you think he should do? Well? I think that

395
00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 1: I would be inclined to go a different route than

396
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 1: what he's done, you know, doing it the way he

397
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,239
Speaker 1: First of all, he roped himself into uh, you know,

398
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:02,000
Speaker 1: a certain group of people would he said he had

399
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 1: to pick a woman. He said that, and you know,

400
00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: some people would say that men are insulted by that,

401
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:11,399
Speaker 1: and some people would say it's fine. I don't know,

402
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 1: I will say this, people don't vote for the you know,

403
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,439
Speaker 1: this is history. This isn't necessarily mean this is history

404
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,000
Speaker 1: because we have a great vice president. Mike Pence has

405
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: been incredible. Actually he's been a great vice president and

406
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: done a really really good job and everything I've given him.

407
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 1: And but people don't vote for the vice president. They

408
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,639
Speaker 1: really don't. They don't vote for the vice president. Like

409
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: you can pick George Washington to be your vice president.

410
00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,920
Speaker 1: Let's pick up Abraham Lincoln coming back from the dead.

411
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: They just don't seem to vote for the vice president.

412
00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 1: Now in this case, you know, because Joe's got some

413
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:46,719
Speaker 1: some things going on. Let's not kid ourselves unless you

414
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,560
Speaker 1: I don't know where your politics are, but Joe's got

415
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,879
Speaker 1: some pretty big things going on, so you know, this

416
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: is going to be a very very important pick, and

417
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,480
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see who he who he chooses.

418
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,440
Speaker 1: I'm interested to see. Also in the end, I don't

419
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,320
Speaker 1: think it's gonna matter. Joe's gonna have to stand in

420
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,919
Speaker 1: his zone two feet and we're doing very well. Our

421
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 1: poll numbers have really come up. You know, we got

422
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: hit by We were unbeatable, and then we got hit

423
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 1: by the China, by the China plague, by the China virus,

424
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: and and obviously we got hit hard. And that affects

425
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: a politician. You know, look at look all over the world.

426
00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: When you get hit it affects a politician. So we fought,

427
00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 1: and we've done a really good job with that and

428
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,240
Speaker 1: every other thing. And now the economy has come back

429
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,400
Speaker 1: so strong, and my poll numbers are are good. They're

430
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 1: getting very good. I think they're gonna go even much higher.

431
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 1: People appreciate what we're doing. So I don't know who

432
00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,200
Speaker 1: he's going to pick. In theory it doesn't matter much,

433
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: but maybe with him it probably matters much more than

434
00:21:44,720 --> 00:21:46,919
Speaker 1: it normally does. For the obvious reason. I know I

435
00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 1: said last question, and I hit you with a sports

436
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 1: question on your way out. The number one debate among

437
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: sports fans for the last ten years probably has been

438
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: who is better as a basketball player, Michael Jordan's or

439
00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:03,280
Speaker 1: Lebron James. Which do you think no doubt in your mind? Well,

440
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 1: I've seen him both. Michael Jordan's is plus he wasn't political,

441
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: so people like him better. That is a perfect answer.

442
00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, President Trump, I appreciate you coming on. You're

443
00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: happy to have welcome to come on any time to

445
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 1: and good luck the rest of your term and maybe

446
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,960
Speaker 1: the next one to thank you very much. Great, thank you.

447

449
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,080

450
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,919
Speaker 1: of the United States, Donald Trump. President Trump, appreciate you

451

Speaker 1: joining us. You're gonna be watching the US Open at all.

452
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,359
Speaker 1: Have you played winged Foot before? I'm actually a member

453
00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 1: of Wingfoot. That's pretty good any times. It's a great place.

454
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: What do you think, well, the score of the winner

455
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: at the US Open, given how challenging those conditions are.

456
00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 1: Last time it was plus five. Do you think someone

457
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 1: will go under par or do you think it will

458
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: be as the players are so good and they're so deep,

459
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 1: so you would think so it was one of the

460
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:06,760
Speaker 1: higher scores. I guess that's right. It was plus five,

461
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,600
Speaker 1: which you don't see anymore. So let's see, I mean

462
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: between the players and technology and everything else. But Wingfoot

463
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: is great and the rough is very tough looking. If

464
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: they hit the fairway, they'll be okay. If they don't,

465
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:20,680
Speaker 1: they're gonna be in big trouble. But it's gonna be

466
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,000
Speaker 1: a great open. What's the best store you ever had

467
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 1: in around? You? Remember there? What's the best you've ever done?

468
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 1: And Wingfoot, I'd say low seventies quite a bit. Low

469
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: seventies would be what I what I've been remember there

470
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:37,199
Speaker 1: a long time and I could I could get it.

471
00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 1: I could do pretty well. But it's but it is

472
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:44,119
Speaker 1: just a great It's a great place. It's a wonderful place.

473
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 1: I've I've enjoyed it for a long time. You've played

474
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:48,879
Speaker 1: with a lot of the top golfers in the world.

475
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:51,600
Speaker 1: Many of them will be playing at wingfoot. What's one

476
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 1: of the most fun rounds you've had with the Tiger

477
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: Woods or Rory McElroy And what's that experience like getting

478
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,440
Speaker 1: to play with a top golfer as a president. Well,

479
00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 1: the experience is terrible because you realize how bad you are.

480
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,880
Speaker 1: You know, there there is a big difference. I mean,

481
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: you can be a good golfer and when you play

482
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,480
Speaker 1: with these top people, even anybody on tour. I always say,

483
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,920
Speaker 1: if there's anybody on tour, even somebody that you've never

484
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 1: never heard of, I have a little expression. You know,

485
00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:21,399
Speaker 1: the first team always take the tour player always because

486
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 1: they're really good and they're they're better. You know, it's

487
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,159
Speaker 1: very hard to get on tour. It's very hard to

488
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 1: stay on tour. So if you have the option, always

489
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 1: take play the tour player. You'll very rarely do badly.

490
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 1: I found that over the years. You've played a lot

491
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: of golf over the years. But you know, I'm not

492
00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,879
Speaker 1: very good. I'm an awful golfer. But every now and

493
00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: then you have a good round going and somebody sees

494
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 1: you and like they pull you up and they say, hey,

495
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 1: you can play through, And you know, you get nervous

496
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 1: because you're like, if you get called up to get

497
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: played through, you don't want to shank one. You don't

498
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 1: want to hit a bad shot. When you're playing with

499
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: the Tiger Woods or Rory McElroy, even as often as

500
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,680
Speaker 1: you have played, do you get nervous in the tea

501
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 1: box team off with them? Yeah, I think a little bit.

502
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: But know you're always a little bit nervous when you're

503
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: in something that depends. I think the most nervous you

504
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 1: get in golf is when you play in the club championships.

505
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 1: That's our major, okay, I club you know, without strokes

506
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 1: or anything, when you're playing in the club championship. To me,

507
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 1: I think that's the most. I have friends that are

508
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 1: very very good golfers, scratch players, and they almost can't

509
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,280
Speaker 1: play in the club championship. They don't play well and

510
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,719
Speaker 1: they just can't do it. It's the pressure, and I

511
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: have I've had a lot of a lot of friends

512
00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,960
Speaker 1: that just can't do it. I think that's our that's

513
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: our major, right, and that's like a big deal. But

514
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 1: you certainly get a little nervous. I play with Tiger

515
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 1: a lot. Actually, he's a great guy, really a great guy,

516
00:25:43,119 --> 00:25:46,080
Speaker 1: and it was amazing that he won the Master so recently,

517
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:48,359
Speaker 1: and you know, to me, it was one of the

518
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,399
Speaker 1: great achievements. But he's he's a wonderful person. Actually people

519
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: don't know him. Uh, They're all good. You know. It's

520
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,120
Speaker 1: interesting when I play with golfers, I find them all

521
00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 1: to be very high quality. That's very rarely play with

522
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 1: a tour player or something that that you don't like.

523
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: I just find very nicely. Now nice Now you know

524
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 1: they're playing with the president, so perhaps they're in good behavior.

525
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 1: I don't know, but but this was before I became president.

526
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 1: I just find golfers to be a very high quality

527
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: group of people. You ever, I've played a few pro

528
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:21,800
Speaker 1: ams and you know, they announced your name, and you

529
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:23,600
Speaker 1: come up and you take a practice swing and there's

530
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 1: people lined up, and I always think, I just don't

531
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 1: want to kill someone, you know, by shanking one with

532
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,679
Speaker 1: people lined up really close to you. You ever hit

533
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: somebody and have to sign a golf you know, like

534
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: they always signed the golf gloves, you know, if you

535
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 1: hit somebody down there. You ever had a bad pro

536
00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 1: am experience. I've had bad experiences, but not hitting people

537
00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 1: bad because I'll play badly or something, but not for

538
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: hitting people. Proms are okay because usually you have three

539
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,719
Speaker 1: or four amateurs and the pro and there's always somebody

540
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:53,840
Speaker 1: to lips you up right if you're not playing well.

541
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: But but pro ams are great. There are a lot

542
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,880
Speaker 1: of fun. But no, gerald Ford was famous for hitting people, right.

543
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,000
Speaker 1: That's right, that's exactly. Don't know what happened. He would

544
00:27:02,000 --> 00:27:05,479
Speaker 1: always every time he played, he had a he had

545
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,280
Speaker 1: a propensity for seeing to do He's actually a good athlete.

546
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:09,800
Speaker 1: I don't know if he was a good golfer, but

547
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 1: he was a very good athlete. But he had a

548
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 1: tendency to do that. It's an easy transition there because

549
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,879
Speaker 1: gerald Ford was a huge University of Michigan fan, Like

550
00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: he would have them play Hell to the Victors I

551
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:21,639
Speaker 1: think instead of Hell to the Chief a lot of

552
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 1: times when he would walk around because he was such

553
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: a big Wolverine fan. You have been instrumental and your

554
00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 1: administration has been instrumental in helping to get big ten

555
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,719
Speaker 1: football back. Tell me about your call with Karen Kevin Warren,

556
00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,199
Speaker 1: what the experience was like to help to make what

557
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: became yesterday a reality. All these kids, all these schools,

558
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: all these athletes, not just football, a lot of people

559
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 1: not talking about it, but fall sports in the big

560
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 1: ten back and able to now play. How proud of

561
00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 1: you are of that accomplishment and what went into it? Well,

562
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 1: I'm really proud of it because it was dead, it

563
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,960
Speaker 1: was totally dead. And I told my people, look, we

564
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 1: got a call. I say, who am I going to call?

565
00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: Who's the head of it? And was Kevin Warren who

566
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:03,959
Speaker 1: who really turned out to be very open about it.

567
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 1: And I said, Kevin, look, we'll help you with testing,

568
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:08,880
Speaker 1: will help you, will get you everything that you need,

569
00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 1: but you've got to get it back for those states.

570
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 1: Those states wanted. They're real football states, as you can understand,

571
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,959
Speaker 1: and you know, great teams and very unfair to players.

572
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:19,719
Speaker 1: It may be their last chance to show their you know,

573
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,800
Speaker 1: their skills to the NFL, and so they wouldn't get that.

574
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,520
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you a group of people came together

575
00:28:25,600 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 1: so fast once we started it because they they sort

576
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: of gave up, although I will tell you didn't give up.

577
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 1: The parents didn't give up, and the players didn't give up.

578
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,520
Speaker 1: They just wanted to play and enough with this stuff.

579
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,200
Speaker 1: And I called Kevin. He was open to it. We

580
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:43,479
Speaker 1: started talking real fast and hard and they ended up

581
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:47,400
Speaker 1: it culminated and getting it done. And we we have

582
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: somebody Tim Pataki, who did a really fantastic job, a

583
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 1: young guy who works at the White House. He did

584
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 1: a great job. He really did that full time. Now

585
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,400
Speaker 1: we're gonna work on pack twelve. I mean, there's no

586
00:28:57,440 --> 00:28:59,320
Speaker 1: reason why they shouldn't be but now they're the only

587
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,320
Speaker 1: ones are just about and they should be playing. Now

588
00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: maybe you can't, I don't know. I mean, maybe you

589
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: can't at this point. It's getting a little bit late,

590
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:11,040
Speaker 1: but they should be playing football. It's ridiculous. They may

591
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:13,880
Speaker 1: have a problem with their venues, who knows, you know,

592
00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,920
Speaker 1: and some of them have a problem with governors. The

593
00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,280
Speaker 1: governors had to come together and we had some governors

594
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:23,720
Speaker 1: that our Democrats and it wasn't easy, but we got it.

595
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: We got it done, and you've got you can have

596
00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:30,120
Speaker 1: some great football, big ten football. It's it's really terrific.

597
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 1: We're talking to the President of the United States, Donald Trump,

598
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 1: and I know based on my background interacting with him.

599
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 1: Tim Pataki did an incredible job. Who you just gave

600
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,200
Speaker 1: a shout out. He's an Ohio State grad over three

601
00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:43,479
Speaker 1: d calls because some people out there, you know how

602
00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:44,959
Speaker 1: it goes, and the media are going to say, oh,

603
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 1: the White House had nothing to do with this, They

604
00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:49,520
Speaker 1: had no impact. You guys were very helpful and impactful

605
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: in making this a reality. I know that personally, but

606
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,080
Speaker 1: certainly the evidence reflects how hard Tim Pattack he worked

607
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 1: and other members of your administration. And I understand now

608
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:00,560
Speaker 1: there has been contact between the White House and the

609
00:30:00,560 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 1: Pack twelve to also offer the same amount of help.

610
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 1: If the Pack twelve needs any assistance in order to

611
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,160
Speaker 1: be able to play this fall, well they I can

612
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: tell you Big ten just needed some confidence in it

613
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,800
Speaker 1: and some backing. But we really were given a lot

614
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:16,760
Speaker 1: of backing. No without us. I'm not saying this for

615
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,239
Speaker 1: any reason. It was a terrible thing. You know. We

616
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 1: did it that, We absolutely did it. If we didn't

617
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,200
Speaker 1: get involved, you wouldn't even be talking about Big ten

618
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 1: right now. They had no chance of playing. They weren't

619
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,000
Speaker 1: going to play. And as soon as we did it

620
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 1: for political reasons, a couple of people said, oh, they

621
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with it. They had nothing to do.

622
00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you when I don't have something to do,

623
00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: sometimes they get credit for something I shouldn't. In all fairness,

624
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:41,600
Speaker 1: that's okay too, I'll take it. But in this case,

625
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,840
Speaker 1: we we I mean Tim and his whole group and

626
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: and me meant a lot of calls to a lot

627
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 1: of people to get this thing done. And sort of

628
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 1: sad when you do something and then you have a

629
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 1: Democrat or you know, opponents saying well, they had nothing

630
00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 1: to do, and they know it's not true. We got

631
00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,080
Speaker 1: it going, we got it started. We were able to

632
00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,959
Speaker 1: show him the different testings, and they knew a lot

633
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: about the testing anyway, but they just decided to go closed.

634
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,880
Speaker 1: And it was just not a good decision. And and

635
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 1: Kevin Warrent did a fantastic job, by the way, gave

636
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: a lot of credit. He got out and he just

637
00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 1: they just did a big reversal. And it's hard to

638
00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 1: do a reversal. You know, you make a decision and

639
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,600
Speaker 1: now you have to say the decision we're going to change.

640
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,040
Speaker 1: So it's it's really a hard thing to do. But

641
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 1: Kevin was fantastic and some of the people we worked

642
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: with were great. But no, we got that one open,

643
00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: and we're gonna try and we're gonna see what we

644
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,000
Speaker 1: can do. I hear there's a little flexibility in fact wealth.

645
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,000
Speaker 1: So I don't want to get people's hopes up too high,

646
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: but there's a little bit of flexibility that we'll see

647
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 1: if we can do it. When you look at the

648
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: decisions that are being made in general, like Joe Biden

649
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:50,600
Speaker 1: ran television advertisements blaming you, I think it was in Michigan, Wisconsin, UH,

650
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 1: in Pennsylvania for their not being big ten football. Do

651
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 1: you think that he will apologize now that you've helped

652
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 1: to make big ten football reality, maybe start running ads

653
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: praising you. Well, they did worse as they did. Work

654
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:06,720
Speaker 1: adds that I said horrible things about UH soldiers who

655
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:09,680
Speaker 1: had died, and that turned out to be a totally

656
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 1: false story. It was made up. It's called disinformation if

657
00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,719
Speaker 1: you know what that is in the sports world. They

658
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,520
Speaker 1: made up a lie and they went with it. It's

659
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,840
Speaker 1: a disgusting that was worse, but you know with and

660
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: that was just a terrible thing to do. That's a

661
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,160
Speaker 1: real there's a real low lass. That's why I take

662
00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,240
Speaker 1: off the gloves because you know, Joe is not equipped

663
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 1: mentally equipped to be president. That I can tell you

664
00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: right now. He wasn't twenty five years ago. But you know,

665
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,640
Speaker 1: I think I can take the gloves of because when

666
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,680
Speaker 1: they did that, but they also did it in football.

667
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: I hear somebody says it's too bad about football, though,

668
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: what do you like football? So sure I do why

669
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: they're taking adds in very important states, you know when

670
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 1: you when you're talking about the states you mentioned are

671
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 1: very important states, big powerful swing states. And he's taken

672
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:54,440
Speaker 1: adds that it's your fault that that Big ten isn't opened.

673
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,040
Speaker 1: I said, you gotta be kidding. And I put very

674
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 1: light pressure on Big ten even before I started this

675
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,440
Speaker 1: heavy preyer yourself, and I said, you gotta be kidding.

676
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: I got a hold of the ad and I said,

677
00:33:05,240 --> 00:33:08,120
Speaker 1: what a lie. It's just a lie, and they do

678
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 1: it was a lie. They made it up. They make

679
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 1: up stores the worst campaign, most of this honest campaign

680
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,720
Speaker 1: I've ever seen. And the ballots sending what do you

681
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 1: see that these unsolicited ballots? What do you see the

682
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: mess that they want? They wanted to be a mess.

683
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: It's the only way they're gonna win. It's the only

684
00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 1: way they can win is to cheat, in my opinion,

685
00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 1: So that sounds that sounds See, football is a much

686
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 1: nicer a much more genteel sport than politics, I can

687
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,480
Speaker 1: tell you, but I really believe that they want to

688
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 1: do that. I know they want to do they want

689
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,120
Speaker 1: to make it a mess. But what happened. I saw

690
00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 1: the ad and that's actually what got me into gear

691
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 1: because I said, oh, edny minute, I wanted to happen,

692
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 1: but I really didn't think about getting involved. When I

693
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 1: saw the end, I said, let's get involved to get

694
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,840
Speaker 1: it open. So that add is one of the reasons

695
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: I got it open, because I just wanted to show

696
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 1: that this was that was such a dirty thing to do.

697
00:33:57,400 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: And uh, when everyone I was publicly record, as you know,

698
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:02,920
Speaker 1: Clay saying, you know you guys want to get to

699
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 1: play and it, but you said it on my show.

700
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:08,800
Speaker 1: That's why who doesn't even pay much attention to politics?

701
00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,560
Speaker 1: She said, wait a minute. The president came on your

702
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: show last month before the big ten in the Pack

703
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 1: twelve shut down. Instead, it would be a tragic mistake

704
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,120
Speaker 1: if they didn't play, and then they blamed you for

705
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:22,080
Speaker 1: the for the games not being played. Absolutely, it's a hud.

706
00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:25,760
Speaker 1: And tell your wife I appreciate her good memory because

707
00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 1: some people don't remember so well. Your wife has the memory.

708
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,759
Speaker 1: You probably don't remember it, and she does and so

709
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 1: your marriage, yeah, you know how marriage goes. She remembers

710
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 1: everything I've ever done. It's not perfect, but it was

711
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:39,240
Speaker 1: such a bad it was so egregious and it was terrible.

712
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: And because of that, I actually activated and and we

713
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: got it done. So I'm very happy. A lot of

714
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 1: people are really happy about it. I was gonna tell

715
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:49,640
Speaker 1: you this last time when you came on, but you

716
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,799
Speaker 1: came on in August and my nine year old son

717
00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:53,239
Speaker 1: when I said, hey, you know, the President is going

718
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 1: to come on Dad's radio show. I swear to god

719
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,000
Speaker 1: President Trump, the first thing he said was, wow, he

720
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:03,200
Speaker 1: knows Vince mcmah And that was his reaction. When the

721
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 1: president is going to come on the radio show. He's

722
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,600
Speaker 1: such a w W E fan and his first reaction,

723
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,360
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, you can share that with Vince. That

724
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:14,640
Speaker 1: the first thought from my nine year old Um when

725
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:17,640
Speaker 1: you when you look you you mentioned Joe Biden in

726
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 1: the debate over Big ten football and everything else. How

727
00:35:20,880 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 1: excited are you? It's like a big sporting event for

728
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:28,280
Speaker 1: many people. On September twenty nine, when the first debate happens,

729
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:31,280
Speaker 1: are you prepping how do you get ready? It's almost

730
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,839
Speaker 1: like a sporting event, right, debate is considered in many

731
00:35:33,880 --> 00:35:36,440
Speaker 1: schools to be a sport. How do you prep who's

732
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: playing the role of Joe Biden in the White House?

733
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,719
Speaker 1: What's that experience like, And how's it different to be

734
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 1: prepping as a president as opposed to a contender when

735
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: you were doing it last time against Hillary. Well, I

736
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 1: think in many ways it could be easier. But they'll

737
00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:54,200
Speaker 1: make up stories like they did about Big ten and

738
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: other things, and you know, they can hit you with

739
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: different kinds of things. But we've done oh well, I

740
00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:02,960
Speaker 1: mean until this pandemic came, and we had the greatest

741
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,279
Speaker 1: economy in the history of our country, and now we're

742
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: building it back to a point where we're gonna have

743
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 1: it again. All the states that you just mentioned had

744
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 1: the best economy they've ever had last year, and now

745
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 1: it's heading back to that again. You know, the stock

746
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,760
Speaker 1: markets doing great, a lot of things are doing great,

747
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: and we're and we have vaccines coming very shortly. I

748
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 1: mean literally in a matter of weeks, we're gonna have

749
00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: vaccines coming. So I really think that, uh, I think

750
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,880
Speaker 1: I think it would be a little bit easier I

751
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,160
Speaker 1: think I can't tell you who's going to show up

752
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 1: with Joe because i've seen him where he's grossly incompetent

753
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,680
Speaker 1: that i've seen seen him where he's sort of normal.

754
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,040
Speaker 1: Like against Bernie, he debated normally. I don't know what

755
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: he did, but he debated normally. But I've watched some

756
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: of the other debates where he had the large number

757
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:48,399
Speaker 1: of Democrats, and I mean, he couldn't he couldn't put

758
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,360
Speaker 1: three words together. It was terrible. So I don't know,

759
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:53,040
Speaker 1: you know, I don't know who's going to show up,

760
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,719
Speaker 1: do you. I saw what you said you would show

761
00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 1: up for Joe Rogan if he did a he suggested

762
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: a four hour debate between you and Joe Biden. How

763
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: do you think it would go if Joe Biden and

764
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 1: you showed up for a four hour debate with Joe Rogan. Well,

765
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:08,279
Speaker 1: it was sort of done in jest at all, but

766
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 1: I would. I mean, I think it's good. I think

767
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 1: Joe has to be exposed and we'll see. Look with me,

768
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 1: you know what you have, and we've done incredible deals

769
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: with the even Big ten. I got Big ten. No

770
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:22,600
Speaker 1: other president would have gotten involved in that. As an example,

771
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,200
Speaker 1: there's no other president play that would have you understand

772
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 1: that they would have Can you imagine Obama wouldn't have

773
00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 1: done it, just wouldn't have done it, and it just

774
00:37:31,000 --> 00:37:34,400
Speaker 1: is not in the makeup and they can you imagine

775
00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:38,319
Speaker 1: Biden doing it. He's a low energy person. I used

776
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:42,879
Speaker 1: to call Jeb Bush low energy, but I mean, if

777
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: you compare the two, Jeb is extraordinarily energetic compared to

778
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: sleepy Joe. So you know, I mean, Joe is not

779
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 1: going to be doing that kind of stuff. And it's

780
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,200
Speaker 1: sort of fun because you know, I have this platform,

781
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,719
Speaker 1: and it's it's sort of easy to do when you

782
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:00,880
Speaker 1: have we have this great platform. You're president of the

783
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 1: United States. We hear that football all over these incredible

784
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:07,399
Speaker 1: states and all of the people that are affected by it, everybody,

785
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,440
Speaker 1: even in the stands of people that work their stands, everybody,

786
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:13,480
Speaker 1: so many people, so many jobs, so many everything. And

787
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 1: you have this platform and you go out and you

788
00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 1: use it and you use it for good. But I

789
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,080
Speaker 1: don't think a lot of people would do that, And

790
00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people, if they did it,

791
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,759
Speaker 1: they wouldn't know how to do it. I think you're right,

792
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:26,000
Speaker 1: and it's it's crazy to me that you get criticized

793
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,560
Speaker 1: for getting football back, right. I mean, like some of

794
00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:30,759
Speaker 1: the media out there, they're upset because you got it back.

795
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:33,080
Speaker 1: And this goes to my mom. I mentioned my my

796
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,839
Speaker 1: wife earlier, but she said, hey, make sure you tell

797
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,000
Speaker 1: the president this for me. So she's a big supporter.

798
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:40,320
Speaker 1: Um and uh. And she said the other day, you

799
00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,880
Speaker 1: know if President Trump went out on a boat, uh

800
00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 1: and uh. And you know, somebody's hat blew off, and

801
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 1: he stepped out of the boat, walked on water and

802
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 1: picked up the hat and brought it back to the

803
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:52,120
Speaker 1: to the fisherman. Uh. The New York Times front page

804
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 1: would say that Trump can't swim. So, you know, it's

805
00:38:56,480 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 1: funny kind of the way sometimes the media plays like

806
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,200
Speaker 1: you bring football back and are mad about it. Well,

807
00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,360
Speaker 1: I'll tell you I have. The vaccine is way ahead

808
00:39:03,360 --> 00:39:06,600
Speaker 1: of schedule. And now I'm being criticized on the vaccine

809
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: because they're petrified that the vaccine comes in, you know,

810
00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:12,480
Speaker 1: before the election. And I view it differently. I view

811
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,600
Speaker 1: it like, we're gonna save lives. It's you know, I

812
00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 1: think it's gonna be a great vaccine and we're going

813
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 1: to save lives. Many great companies really close and probably

814
00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,560
Speaker 1: have it, and they're in tests right now. But I'm

815
00:39:24,560 --> 00:39:27,640
Speaker 1: being criticized for bringing it back too fast. And one

816
00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 1: of the doctors said, you know, it's a crazy world politics.

817
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: Everybody wanted to get a vaccine as fast as possible.

818
00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,359
Speaker 1: President Trump gets it ready fast, and they're criticizing them.

819
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: You know, it's wild. Do you expect a vaccine to

820
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:43,799
Speaker 1: be ready before the election by late October Halloween? It

821
00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: could be Uh, it will be right there. I mean,

822
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:50,279
Speaker 1: it's right in that vicinity before a little or just

823
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: shortly after, which is years ahead of schedule. You know,

824
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: if you look at if you look at what was

825
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,200
Speaker 1: going on with vaccines, there was no chance if you

826
00:40:00,280 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 1: go back to another administration, and I'm not just talking

827
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,080
Speaker 1: about Obama, if you go back to another administration, play

828
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:09,520
Speaker 1: there's no chance that this would have been to three

829
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:12,640
Speaker 1: or four years. Because I've energized the FDA and we're

830
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 1: proving things faster and safely. It's all it has to

831
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,120
Speaker 1: be under present safe. But I've energized the FDA, which

832
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 1: would have taken to three years, and we're going to

833
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,960
Speaker 1: have something in a matter of weeks. But it's amazing.

834
00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 1: This never happened until a few weeks ago when they

835
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 1: started criticizing the whole concept of this vaccine only because

836
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,799
Speaker 1: I did it. If it wasn't me, it was somebody else,

837
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,200
Speaker 1: they'd say, Oh, this is unbelievable. The vaccine is going

838
00:40:39,239 --> 00:40:43,000
Speaker 1: to be here so early. Uh, and it's people are

839
00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:45,320
Speaker 1: very aware of what's going on. They see what's happening.

840
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 1: This is all done by the Democrats. Are very upset

841
00:40:48,640 --> 00:40:50,880
Speaker 1: that we've done such a good job with a vaccine.

842
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:53,640
Speaker 1: They're very upset that we've done such a great job

843
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,279
Speaker 1: with like the ventilators, when you had no ventilators that

844
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:59,040
Speaker 1: all of a sudden we started producing. You know, we've

845
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:01,479
Speaker 1: done a good job in the COVID. This was given

846
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 1: to us by China. Shouldn't have happened. Should have never happened.

847
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 1: They stopped it from coming into China, but they let

848
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,600
Speaker 1: it go to the world. The whole world is suffering

849
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:13,400
Speaker 1: because of it. It's a disgrace. But we've done a

850
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: great job. But the new thing is the vaccine. And

851
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:20,160
Speaker 1: they're very very they're very angry, and you should they

852
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 1: should be happy because we're talking about saving a lot

853
00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:25,600
Speaker 1: of lives. But that's the world of politics, lay one

854
00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,760
Speaker 1: of the world of politics. That's crazy to me, speaking

855
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,360
Speaker 1: of the way that the media has covered the coronavirus

856
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,839
Speaker 1: in general, um is they have praised Andrew Cuomo, who

857
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:39,520
Speaker 1: statistically has the worst death rate in the world President Trump.

858
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,600
Speaker 1: I mean, that's not that he's writing a book about

859
00:41:42,600 --> 00:41:45,040
Speaker 1: what a good job he did. You look at other

860
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:49,279
Speaker 1: states Florida, Arizona, Texas Republican governors, They've all done far

861
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,480
Speaker 1: better from a per capita perspective, and you would think

862
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 1: that those guys have done awful jobs. All that matters

863
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 1: is the difference between Republican and Democrat. I look at

864
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 1: it like it's a scoreboard, like let's use data and

865
00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:03,000
Speaker 1: actually use it. Like. It's wild to me that Andrew

866
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,680
Speaker 1: Cuomo is considered to be like the greatest governor in

867
00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:07,799
Speaker 1: the history mankind. When you look at his record, it's

868
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 1: it's awful. Yeah, he had a hard time. He had

869
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 1: a hard time, and I mean I can tell you

870
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: the story. I know the story better than anybody. I

871
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,759
Speaker 1: won't say it, but I thought he definitely had a

872
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:21,560
Speaker 1: hard time. A lot of people died, unfortunately, and one

873
00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 1: of the decisions, obviously was the nursing home, which I

874
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 1: think needs to get looked into. But that seems to

875
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,680
Speaker 1: be a huge part of this is a huge majority

876
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,120
Speaker 1: of the deaths in many countries are coming out of

877
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:33,960
Speaker 1: nursing homes, and nearly fifty in the United States, and

878
00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 1: it's only point six percent of the population. Right, we

879
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:40,760
Speaker 1: have the nursing home. Look. It affects elderly people, especially

880
00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,560
Speaker 1: if you have a heart problem or diabetes in particular,

881
00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:46,799
Speaker 1: but other things too. But it turned out that they're

882
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 1: vulnerable and young kids, if you have kids, I mean,

883
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,440
Speaker 1: it's incredible. Their immune system is stronger. Who would have thought,

884
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 1: and the younger the better. But they have statistics where

885
00:42:56,280 --> 00:42:59,759
Speaker 1: a certain state had many thousands of death, thousands of

886
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 1: and not one death under eight think of it. Not one.

887
00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:06,359
Speaker 1: Now my three kids are all back in school, which

888
00:43:06,360 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 1: is why I've been arguing, we need sports, we need

889
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:10,680
Speaker 1: people back at work, and all three of my kids

890
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,000
Speaker 1: are back in person schooling, and I think that's important.

891
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:15,360
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, and thank you for helping to make that happen.

892
00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 1: Question for you, and this is a little bit interesting.

893
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: I don't know, in the grand scheme of things, Kim

894
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:22,239
Speaker 1: Jong un, there's been all sorts of questions about what's

895
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,960
Speaker 1: going on in North Korea, and I'm curious what you

896
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 1: think about his health. But also roar is that he

897
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,480
Speaker 1: is a big American sports fan, that he loved the

898
00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:35,240
Speaker 1: Chicago Bulls, Dennis Rodman, Michael Jordan's. Have you ever talked

899
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,880
Speaker 1: with Kim Jong n about the nineties Bulls and what

900
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,680
Speaker 1: did he say? What kind of conversation did you? Guy

901
00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,760
Speaker 1: really does like Dennis Rudman. I will tell you it's

902
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:46,160
Speaker 1: it's sort of great. I always said Dennis would be

903
00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:47,920
Speaker 1: better than some of these stiffs that they used to

904
00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 1: send over to get to know him. And they send

905
00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 1: these people over and they went to Harvard and they

906
00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:56,440
Speaker 1: are great students and great everything, but they have no

907
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:00,279
Speaker 1: chemistry whatsoever. He really did like Dennis Rodman. Dennis good

908
00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:04,080
Speaker 1: guy too, And they said, uh, we should maybe use

909
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 1: him instead of somebody that graduated number one at Harvard.

910
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: Maybe we should use Dennis. I thought about that, but

911
00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,000
Speaker 1: we have I have a very good relationship with him.

912
00:44:12,000 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 1: He does love basketball and he really does like Dennis. Uh.

913
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 1: And so I always thought, like, man, if you could

914
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: just bring him over here to go meet Michael Jordan's,

915
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,319
Speaker 1: like we might be able to get a great piece

916
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,200
Speaker 1: of cord, not to be based on how much he

917
00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:26,520
Speaker 1: loved the bulls. Well, we've done well, we have a

918
00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: good relationship, and frankly, nothing's happened. If Hillary would have

919
00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,040
Speaker 1: gotten in, or if you had a longer term Obama,

920
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 1: you would have been in a war with them as

921
00:44:34,560 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 1: sure as you're sitting there, and you would have had

922
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:40,799
Speaker 1: a war that would have been a really bad one,

923
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,719
Speaker 1: a lot of nuclear weapons, a lot of bad things

924
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:48,440
Speaker 1: would have happened. And we're right now. Just hey, whatever

925
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 1: happened to that war, right and I have a relationship.

926
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,239
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens. I mean, I'm not saying we

927
00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,560
Speaker 1: did a great thing the other day with Israel. With

928
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:59,040
Speaker 1: Israel and Bahrain, you saw a new a And that's

929
00:44:59,080 --> 00:45:00,840
Speaker 1: just the beginning. We have a lot of other countries

930
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:02,560
Speaker 1: that want to sign into that. You'll end up in

931
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:05,480
Speaker 1: peace in the Middle East. And people are even the

932
00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:07,839
Speaker 1: New York Times is giving that one Rave reviews, which

933
00:45:07,840 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 1: is shocking. They said, if you moved the embassy to Jerusalem,

934
00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,839
Speaker 1: everything would fall apart. Instead, it seems like it might.

935
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:16,520
Speaker 1: It might actually have helped in a major way, which

936
00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:19,600
Speaker 1: is a counterintuitive. Um. The last couple of questions for

937
00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:22,400
Speaker 1: you here. Did you watch Tom Brady at all play

938
00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 1: with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I did, I watched, But

939
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:29,520
Speaker 1: football's way down. Ratings was way down because people are

940
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 1: not going to stand for this stuff anymore. Well, were

941
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,279
Speaker 1: there not respecting our flag and our national anthem? They're

942
00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:37,960
Speaker 1: just not going to stand for Ratings were way down.

943
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:41,920
Speaker 1: I did watch Tom, and I like Tom a lot,

944
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,440
Speaker 1: and I think he'll be fine. It was, you know,

945
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,919
Speaker 1: I guess it was a break in game. The other

946
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:53,560
Speaker 1: team is a good team, good quarterback. Uh and uh,

947
00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:56,000
Speaker 1: it was an interesting game. What did you think? I

948
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,680
Speaker 1: don't you know. I think the big it's like a divorce,

949
00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,520
Speaker 1: right Belichick and Brady, and which one's going to have

950
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: a better post divorced life? And I liked the way

951
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:08,640
Speaker 1: that Cam played for the Patriots in Belichick. And if

952
00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:11,160
Speaker 1: you were buying stock in Belichick right now or in

953
00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,279
Speaker 1: Brady right now for this season, which one do you

954
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,279
Speaker 1: think is the better buy? Well, they're friends of mine,

955
00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:17,759
Speaker 1: but I will tell you this, he's some coach. He's

956
00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 1: a very good friend of mine, and he's tough, and

957
00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 1: he endorsed me, and you know, he endorsed me the

958
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:26,160
Speaker 1: first time too, and he said he, I mean, you

959
00:46:26,200 --> 00:46:28,319
Speaker 1: know some people don't want to get involved, Okay, they

960
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:31,000
Speaker 1: just so he doesn't care. He couldn't care less. He

961
00:46:31,040 --> 00:46:35,280
Speaker 1: wants to do whatever's right. He's a tough guy, and

962
00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 1: and he's just a great Coach's remember when he said

963
00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:41,520
Speaker 1: the field goal against Atlantic, go for the field goal.

964
00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:43,120
Speaker 1: They were getting killed. They had a chance for a

965
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,680
Speaker 1: touchdown or a field goal, and he kicked the field

966
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:50,640
Speaker 1: goal and school like seven to three down. Yeah, yeah,

967
00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 1: and he kicks a field goal, And I said, geez,

968
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:55,719
Speaker 1: that's not a good decision. It tended up to be

969
00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,160
Speaker 1: a perfect decision because they had what tied and then

970
00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,840
Speaker 1: they ended up winning the game. If he doesn't have

971
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:03,400
Speaker 1: that field god, now maybe they would have been a

972
00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 1: touch ten. You know, who knows what happens. But there's

973
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,200
Speaker 1: a case where you would have said that's too conservative, right,

974
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 1: And but he is a great coach. I've watched him

975
00:47:11,360 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 1: win games that other coaches just wouldn't win. But he's

976
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 1: a great guy too, no doubt. Last question for you,

977
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: does it seem as crazy to you as it does

978
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:21,160
Speaker 1: too many people in my audience that for high school

979
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,680
Speaker 1: football in particular, you've helped to get the Big ten back.

980
00:47:23,760 --> 00:47:26,120
Speaker 1: We may end up with Pack twelve playing Mountain West.

981
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 1: Other conferences could be coming back. But if you look

982
00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:32,320
Speaker 1: at the data in different states for high school kids,

983
00:47:32,560 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: whether they have a Democrat governor or a Republican governor,

984
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 1: in many respects seems to be deciding whether high school

985
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:41,320
Speaker 1: kids should be able to play football or sports in

986
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:43,719
Speaker 1: the fall. In general, should it kids be able to

987
00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,320
Speaker 1: play sports regardless of whether the governor is a Democrat

988
00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:48,560
Speaker 1: or Republican. Well, it's too bad, it has to be

989
00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:50,480
Speaker 1: that way. But if you look at these states with

990
00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:53,759
Speaker 1: high crime, they're run by democrats. You look at the

991
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 1: cities with high crime, they're run by democrats. And the

992
00:47:57,000 --> 00:48:01,360
Speaker 1: Democrats tell you what their philosophy they're not working too well,

993
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,280
Speaker 1: and certainly their philosophies on law and order are working

994
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:06,600
Speaker 1: very badly. You look at all of the places that

995
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:10,839
Speaker 1: have problems. Uh, you know Portland, Look at that, it's

996
00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:14,080
Speaker 1: run by these radical left Democrats. It's a disaster. We

997
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 1: go and I could fix that up in half an hour.

998
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,839
Speaker 1: We'll send in the National Guard. They have to ask us,

999
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,839
Speaker 1: it has to be requested. But but all of these

1000
00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:26,279
Speaker 1: places are run by liberal Democrats, and so I don't know.

1001
00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,040
Speaker 1: It's sort of it should be easy. We're going to

1002
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 1: find out whether or not people agree with me. Last question,

1003
00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 1: did you tell my producer Danny g that he deserved

1004
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,040
Speaker 1: a raise when you called last time? Absolutely? I said,

1005
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 1: you got the president, but you really do. You have

1006
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,680
Speaker 1: a great show and he's a nice guy. But I said,

1007
00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 1: you got the president of the phone. You deserve a raise.

1008
00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 1: I haven't done too many of these calls lately. I

1009
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:48,440
Speaker 1: appreciate it, sir. We'd love to have you back on

1010
00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: anytime you want to come on. Keep doing good work,

1011
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,120
Speaker 1: and thanks for the work you did for the Big Ten.

1012
00:48:52,560 --> 00:48:54,919
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. Like everyone, have a good time.

1013
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 1: Thank you. That is the President of the United States,

1014
00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:58,000
Speaker 1: Donald Trump.
