WEBVTT - President Donald Trump on Outkick the Coverage x2 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.120 Clay Travis here, and we got a lot of requests 0:00:02.120 --> 0:00:04.000 for this, so I thought it made sense. We do 0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:06.600 a lot on the Wins and Losses podcast where it's 0:00:06.600 --> 0:00:09.160 a long form conversation, and one reason I like to 0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:12.239 do it is because you're able to go back and 0:00:12.280 --> 0:00:15.640 listen to it, and they're really kind of timeless. Well, 0:00:15.760 --> 0:00:18.000 we've had the President of the United States on twice 0:00:18.120 --> 0:00:20.840 and we've spent nearly an hour with him, right around 0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:24.119 fifty minutes, and I thought, what if we have for 0:00:24.200 --> 0:00:28.800 perpetuity those interviews, so you can go here what that 0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:32.080 interview sounded like, and there's an easy way to find 0:00:32.080 --> 0:00:34.159 them in the years ahead as a part of the 0:00:34.159 --> 0:00:37.280 Wins and lost His podcast. So we are putting together 0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:42.160 Donald Trump from August of on our radio program, and 0:00:42.440 --> 0:00:47.239 we're also putting Donald Trump from September of our radio program, 0:00:47.280 --> 0:00:49.800 combining both of those. You can listen to them now 0:00:49.840 --> 0:00:52.400 in one place, as many of you are doing, and 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:56.280 that podcast will begin now. Fox Sports Radio has the 0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:59.279 best sports talk lineup in the nation. Catch all of 0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:02.800 our shows that Fox sports Radio dot com and within 0:01:02.840 --> 0:01:05.320 the I Heart Radio app search f s are to 0:01:05.440 --> 0:01:08.280 listen live. We are joined now by the President of 0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:11.160 the United States, Donald Trump, Mr President, thanks for starting 0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:13.319 your morning with us. We're excited to have you. Well, 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:15.240 thank you very much, Clay. It's an honor. You have 0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:17.640 a great show. Well, I appreciate that. Now. I know 0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:19.920 you're a long time sports fan. So there's a lot 0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:22.160 of things I want to get into with you, but 0:01:22.200 --> 0:01:24.480 I want to start. You've been a big supporter of 0:01:24.520 --> 0:01:27.720 Tom Brady for a very long time. What were your 0:01:27.720 --> 0:01:30.640 thoughts when he decided to move to Tampa Bay And 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:32.520 what do you think he's going to be capable of 0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:34.720 down there? Will you be rooting for him? Well, I 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:36.360 think he's going to do a great job. You know, 0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:38.399 he's a winner. He knows how to win. That's a 0:01:38.440 --> 0:01:41.760 big thing. And he's just been a great quarterback with 0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.880 a great coach. It's a great combination and a great 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:50.120 owner in Bob Kraft. Frankly, and he probably wanted to change. 0:01:50.200 --> 0:01:52.080 He wanted to change, and I think, you know, he 0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.560 had plenty of teams to go to, and then he 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:57.600 picked one with from what I understand, a good offensive 0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:00.600 line and very good receivers. He looked at that closely. 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:04.000 I think he probably had other choices where they had players. 0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:05.760 I think his biggest thing is he wants to win. 0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:09.080 And from what I know, and I know the ownership 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:11.160 of the team, they'll do whatever they have to because 0:02:11.160 --> 0:02:14.040 they're fantastic people, the owners of the team at the 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:17.440 Tom's own now and uh. I think he's going to 0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:19.519 do well in Tampa Bay. I think he'll do well. 0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:21.400 I think he'll I don't know why it would be 0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.320 a surprise, but perhaps it will be. But I think 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:26.000 he's going to surprise a lot of people. I think 0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:28.320 he's going to do great. We're talking to the President 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.120 of the United States, Donald Trump, Mr President, What do 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:33.760 you hear about the NFL. I know there's been a 0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:35.640 lot of talk. You mentioned that you talked to several 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:39.000 different owners, Bob Kraft in particular. How confident are you 0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:42.240 that come September ten, with the schedule the opener between 0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:45.280 the Texans and the Chiefs, that the NFL will be 0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:47.680 underway and everybody out there who's an NFL fan will 0:02:47.720 --> 0:02:50.160 be able to watch. Well. They want to open, and 0:02:50.200 --> 0:02:52.840 they want to open badly, and they've been working with government. 0:02:53.600 --> 0:02:55.760 I would say this, if they don't stand for the 0:02:55.880 --> 0:02:59.120 national anthem, I hope they don't open but other than that, 0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.320 I'd love to see the open and we're doing everything 0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.640 possible for getting them open. And they can protest in 0:03:04.680 --> 0:03:07.400 other ways. They shouldn't protest our flag or our country. 0:03:08.000 --> 0:03:10.639 Have you talked have you talked with owners about your 0:03:10.680 --> 0:03:13.160 hope that they're going to stand for the national anthem? 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:17.680 The players, Uh, they know my they know my my 0:03:18.000 --> 0:03:21.119 feelings very well. They've been expressed. I think it's been 0:03:21.200 --> 0:03:24.240 horrible for basketball. Look at the basketball writings that down 0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:27.920 down to very low numbers, very very low. People are 0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:30.440 angry about it. They don't realize that they don't want 0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:34.359 They have enough politics with guys like me, they don't 0:03:34.360 --> 0:03:38.640 need more. As they're driving down going up for the shot, 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:40.400 you know, they don't need it. And there was a 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:42.960 nastiness about the NBA the way it was done too. 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:46.800 So I think that they the NBA is in trouble. 0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:49.600 I think it's in big trouble, bigger trouble that they understand. 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:53.200 And frankly, ice hockey, which is doing very well, they 0:03:53.200 --> 0:03:58.920 didn't do that. They respected the more as they respected 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.160 what they're supposed to be doing, and they're actually doing 0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:04.080 very well. As I understand it, I don't have much 0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.280 time to be watching this stuff. Just so you understand, 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.800 it's just what I'm reading and what I'm seeing. But 0:04:09.120 --> 0:04:11.640 I saw he was with respect. I did not like 0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:15.960 what baseball did even a little bit. And again, you 0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.039 have to stand for your flag, and you have to 0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:20.760 respect your flag and your country. You're making millions of 0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:22.800 dollars a year to be playing the sport you'd be 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.279 playing anyway. If you didn't make they'd be playing it 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.440 on the weekends. And they got to They have to 0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.000 respect their country. And if they don't, frankly, if the 0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:33.400 NFL didn't open, I'd be very happy. If they don't 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:37.400 stand for the flag and stand strongly, I would be 0:04:37.520 --> 0:04:40.640 very happy if they didn't open with without that. And 0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:43.159 with that being said, i'd love to see them open. 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.760 We're talking to Donald Trump, the President of the United States, 0:04:46.839 --> 0:04:49.560 and President Trump. When you look at the n b 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:51.479 A and you just reference the n b A and 0:04:51.600 --> 0:04:54.719 all of the political statements that they're making, it seems 0:04:54.760 --> 0:04:58.560 like every time you send a tweet, a executive, a coach, 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:03.080 a player, somebody will come out and immediately fire back 0:05:03.120 --> 0:05:06.680 at you. But yet the NBA is taking billions of 0:05:06.760 --> 0:05:09.960 dollars from China. There are all sorts of human rights 0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:12.919 violations going on in China right now, and none of 0:05:12.920 --> 0:05:14.880 the players and none of the coaches will say a 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.520 word about that. Does it feel hypocritical that they will 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:20.040 rip the United States, they won't stand for the anthem, 0:05:20.080 --> 0:05:22.600 they'll rip you as the president, but they won't say 0:05:22.600 --> 0:05:25.200 a negative word about China at all. Well, I haven't 0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:27.760 noticed them sending things back at me, but I will 0:05:27.800 --> 0:05:30.600 say that, you know, I wouldn't be that surprised. Some 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:34.719 are very nasty, very very nasty, and frankly, very dumb. 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:37.680 But I haven't noticed that. But I will say this, 0:05:37.880 --> 0:05:41.520 the way they the way they catered to China, the 0:05:41.560 --> 0:05:45.480 way they bowed to China, it's a disgrace, frankly. And 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:47.359 they make a lot more money here than they do 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.240 from China. But we have a system that allows you 0:05:50.320 --> 0:05:54.080 to disrespect your system. And that's uh. Too bad for them, 0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:57.040 Too bad for them. They don't appreciate what they have here. 0:05:57.680 --> 0:06:00.800 But no that what they did with China, and what 0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:03.960 China did to us with the with the China virus, 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:06.479 and and the rest of the world, by the way, 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:08.039 you know, I mean the whole rest of the world. 0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:10.400 They stopped it from going in and spreading in China, 0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.480 but they didn't stop it from spreading in the US 0:06:13.560 --> 0:06:17.120 and in other parts of the world, including Europe, but 0:06:17.279 --> 0:06:21.640 other parts in the world countries. So Uh, I watched 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:25.800 that whole thing with the general manager of the team 0:06:25.960 --> 0:06:28.960 was at Houston. Yeah, Darryl Moore, the general manager who 0:06:28.960 --> 0:06:31.240 said that he wanted to free Hong Kong. And speaking 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.920 of Hong Kong right now, you've got I see the 0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.960 front page of the Wall Street Journal. The China went 0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:40.720 in and arrested a ton of pro democracy media members, uh, 0:06:40.839 --> 0:06:43.320 including Jimmy Lai, I believe, who was one of the 0:06:43.360 --> 0:06:47.560 most active participants in all of the Hong Kong democracy movement. 0:06:47.600 --> 0:06:50.000 For people out there who aren't paying attention, why should 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.000 Americans care about what China is doing in in Hong 0:06:53.040 --> 0:06:55.800 Kong and maybe the threats to Taiwan as well well. Look, 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:59.400 for years, Hong Kong was making a lot of money 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:01.200 that we could have been made, that we could have 0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:03.920 been making in the New York Stock Exchange and our 0:07:03.960 --> 0:07:06.479 great exchanges. You know, we have the biggest exchanges. We 0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:09.560 have the Great Dollar, the dollar, which I've made stronger, 0:07:09.760 --> 0:07:11.640 much stronger, than it used to be. I hope people 0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:14.680 recognize that in the world of sports, our country is 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:17.000 in good shape and we're coming back so strong. It's 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:19.240 incredible when you look at the numbers that we're producing 0:07:19.280 --> 0:07:21.160 and putting up. We're coming back very strong. And we 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:24.960 say millions and millions of lives by closing down and restarting. 0:07:25.000 --> 0:07:28.400 But I will say that with Hong Kong, we gave 0:07:28.440 --> 0:07:31.720 tremendous incentives and costs us a fortune to keep Hong 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:36.320 Kong viable and going. And now what we've done, I've 0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:40.760 ended everything. I've ended all of that. There's no incentive whatsoever. 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.800 We're not sending money through incentives back to Hong Kong. 0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:46.920 We're gonna make a lot more money because they're not 0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:49.240 going to be competitive. It won't be a competitive market, 0:07:49.320 --> 0:07:52.040 can't be with the government running it, so they're going 0:07:52.080 --> 0:07:56.000 to have a different kind of a deal. And we're 0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:59.240 not participating from the standpoint of we're not we're not 0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:04.000 spending you know, billions of dollars on making life comfortable 0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:07.040 with them for freedom. And that was okay, we do 0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.360 that if they were free, but they're not free. You know, 0:08:09.440 --> 0:08:12.040 it's a part, it's a part when you look, I mean, 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.320 take a look at a map. It's attached to China. 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:18.680 You know. So it's a little bit tough from certain standpoints, 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:22.080 but we will do very well by not having a 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.440 good competitor. I guess it'll be a competitor, but on 0:08:24.480 --> 0:08:26.480 a much smoiler scale. I know you have a good 0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:30.520 relationship with Chairman z over in China, but you mentioned 0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:33.439 the China virus, the virus that is obviously swept around 0:08:33.520 --> 0:08:36.439 the nation. You mentioned Hong Kong and the challenge to 0:08:36.520 --> 0:08:40.320 democracy there. Do you feel a bit disappointed in your 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:44.440 friend Chairman z and how he has responded with China 0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.560 with the virus and also with Hong Kong. Well, I 0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:49.880 used to have a very good relationship with him. We 0:08:49.960 --> 0:08:52.040 made a trade deal. It was a great deal for us, 0:08:53.040 --> 0:08:56.320 you know. To look, China's ripped off our country for 0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.679 thirty years, like nobody ever, Nobody's ever done anything like 0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:01.480 what I've done, And we had a bunch of people 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:05.160 sitting in the office that I'm in now that allowed 0:09:05.200 --> 0:09:09.640 it to happen. We're losing we were losing five hundred billion, 0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:14.440 six hundred billion, billion, not million billion dollars a year 0:09:14.880 --> 0:09:20.439 in trade with China. The deficit was massive, probably averaged 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:24.000 two or three hundred billion dollars. Over many years, we 0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.040 we helped rebuild China. Look, if it wasn't for us, 0:09:26.080 --> 0:09:28.360 they wouldn't have China as you know it today. We 0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:31.200 gave so much money so stupidly. How these people allowed 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:32.800 it to happen. And I came in and I charged 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:37.440 him tariffs and even more than that. And but I 0:09:37.520 --> 0:09:40.440 had a great relationship with presidents she I like them, 0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:43.600 But I don't feel the same way now. I've you know, 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:45.480 every once in a while you will say, and you've 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.400 had it, You've had it very well and play. I understand. 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:51.160 I know you indirectly. I know you, and you have 0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:54.320 your likes and dislikes very strongly. So do I. But 0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.520 I didn't like what what took place. This is not 0:09:58.320 --> 0:10:01.719 trade this is this is a thousand times the trade deal. 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:04.440 What happened with all of the death and all of 0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:07.480 the world, I mean, the world had to shut down. 0:10:07.880 --> 0:10:10.240 It's a disgrace what happened. You look at some of 0:10:10.280 --> 0:10:13.160 these countries in Europe, which is devastated. Look at what's 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:17.120 going on in Africa with this horrible disease. So you know, 0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:20.280 I certainly feel I certainly feel differently. I had a 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:23.719 very very good relationship and I haven't spoken to him 0:10:23.720 --> 0:10:26.280 in a long time. It's a different it's a much different. 0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:30.040 We have a much different relationship with China now than 0:10:30.120 --> 0:10:33.720 we did for years where they ripped us off and 0:10:33.720 --> 0:10:35.760 then I stopped that. They were having the worst year 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.839 they had in sixty seven years because I charged them 0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.240 tariffs and we're making a lot of money. I was 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.360 giving a lot of money to farmers. They were targeted. 0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:46.560 They were targeting farmers. I gave twenty eight billion dollars, 0:10:46.559 --> 0:10:48.880 that was the amount, and it came all out of China, 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:52.360 and the farmers are doing great because of it. Otherwise 0:10:52.360 --> 0:10:54.920 they would have been all out of business. But you know, 0:10:54.960 --> 0:10:57.240 I treated them as you would do it. But I 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:00.319 still had a good relationship. But once the once the 0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:02.760 plague came in from China, I go at the plague. 0:11:03.240 --> 0:11:07.800 But once the plague came in from China, the relationship changed, 0:11:08.000 --> 0:11:10.120 no question about it. It It would be it would be 0:11:10.160 --> 0:11:12.719 hard to believe that it wouldn't change. We're talking to 0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:15.440 the President of the United States, Donald Trump, Mr President, 0:11:15.600 --> 0:11:19.600 much less serious in terms of the plague. Although the 0:11:19.679 --> 0:11:23.400 virus is impacting many different parts of sports in America, 0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:26.760 including potentially college football. I know you're a big college 0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:30.240 football fan. You went to the L. S U Alabama 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:33.440 game this past year, Joe Burrow against two of talking 0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:36.040 about low a great game. You went to the national 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:40.120 title game where Clemson played against L. S U. Why 0:11:40.200 --> 0:11:42.719 is it important for college football to be played and 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:46.000 what do you think you can do to help that happen. Well, 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:49.160 first of all, those those people, the people in that sport, 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:52.400 it's just like incredible people. And you know, like some 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:55.679 of the coaches like Nick Saban and coach Oh, how 0:11:55.679 --> 0:11:58.560 about coach O. He's amazing, he's central casting. Right, you're 0:11:58.559 --> 0:12:00.800 doing a football movie. You got to pick him as 0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:03.800 you coach, right, and did put him in the movie? Uh? 0:12:03.840 --> 0:12:06.800 And Lou Holtz is just a fantastic guy, a friend 0:12:06.800 --> 0:12:08.880 of mine who has been a supporter from the beginning. 0:12:09.679 --> 0:12:13.080 And you know, just just so many others. They're they're 0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:16.000 just great people and they want to play football and 0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:18.120 they know better than anyone else. The other thing is 0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.560 that somebody who's explaining I had actually a great one 0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:24.640 of the great doctors said, these people are so powerful 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:28.199 and so strong, not lots of body fat, although you 0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:31.680 could take a couple of offensive alignemen perhaps and dispute that, 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:35.400 but not a lot of body fat. Maybe none in 0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:39.400 some cases, you know, and they're very healthy people. They 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:42.680 you know, people don't realize it's a tiny percentage of 0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:48.120 people that that get sick and uh, they're old. It 0:12:48.320 --> 0:12:52.480 just attacks old people, especially old people with bad heart 0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:56.920 diabetes or some kind of a physical problem, a weight problem. 0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:59.920 Is there wonderful that I'm of a perfect perfect physic 0:13:00.040 --> 0:13:05.360 osfestim and so great? Right, that's right? I was zero percent. 0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:09.040 Didn't have zero per somebody? Somebody said zero percent body fat? 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:13.480 Wouldn't that be nice? But no, But this attacks older 0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:16.400 people very viciously, by the way it can be if 0:13:16.440 --> 0:13:19.480 it's the wrong person. But you know, these football players 0:13:19.480 --> 0:13:23.360 are very young, strong people and physically, I mean the 0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:26.600 physically an extraordinary shape. So they're not going to have 0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:29.240 a problem. You're not going to see people, you know, 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:31.640 couldn't it be? Could it happened? But I doubt it. 0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:35.319 You're not going to see people dying. And many people 0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:37.120 get it, and they have like kids, they get it. 0:13:37.160 --> 0:13:40.440 They have the sniffles young kids. Almost none you have 0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:43.480 a serious problem with it. I mean literally, you look, 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:46.720 I think I said, the state of California, almost nobody 0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:51.600 that's young had a like zero had a problem with 0:13:51.880 --> 0:13:55.720 meaning a serious problem with this disease. I mean, they 0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:57.800 get better very quickly, if they get it at all. 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:02.200 So I think football's making a tragic mistake. And you know, 0:14:02.480 --> 0:14:06.120 it's interesting when it opens. When I went to that game, 0:14:06.440 --> 0:14:08.640 it was incredible. I went to a couple of them, 0:14:08.640 --> 0:14:11.200 and I never really did the big time college football. 0:14:11.520 --> 0:14:13.480 I went to an ivy League school, it wasn't quite 0:14:13.559 --> 0:14:16.480 the same. But when I went to Alabama and I 0:14:16.520 --> 0:14:19.880 went to L s U. And you know, these stadiums 0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:23.360 are massive. You have no idea about that. There's much 0:14:23.400 --> 0:14:25.920 bigger crowds in the NFL. You know, in the NFL 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.960 you have sixty and here we had I think a 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:32.680 hundred and fifteen thousand people. And you go to see 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:37.200 these games and it's it's it's brilliant football. It's great football. 0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:40.560 It's the atmosphere. There's nothing like it. And you can't 0:14:40.600 --> 0:14:43.680 have empty seats. You know, if I had five empty seats, 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:45.840 for instance, they said, when I do a rally, sir, 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:49.320 the reason I won't do them, because you can't have 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:52.160 one seat and then seven around that seat, sir, have 0:14:52.240 --> 0:14:53.880 to be empty. Oh that'll look great. You know, you 0:14:53.920 --> 0:14:56.360 have one person and everything's very empty around them. You 0:14:56.400 --> 0:14:59.400 can't do that. Uh, And I don't think. I'm not 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:02.440 sure that college football can do it. But we'll have 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:05.200 to see, you know, some sports I see. I think 0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:07.920 golf has not been hurt visually by In fact, I 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:09.800 think golf looks more beautiful if you want to know 0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:13.360 the truth, you know, instead of a lot of people. 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:16.000 You know, the cheering is good, and certainly I guess 0:15:16.080 --> 0:15:18.440 the income is good and all. But golf works. You 0:15:18.440 --> 0:15:21.320 know what works as UFC works very well. UFC. I 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:24.560 watched that the other night, and they light up the stage, 0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:28.360 they light up the cage and it's, you know, really bright. 0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:31.000 They darken the arena, maybe put a little silk around it. 0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:34.440 Who knows, But that works, and other sports don't work. 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:37.000 Basketball is not working. I think basketball is not working 0:15:37.040 --> 0:15:39.400 because of the way they treated our flag and our anthem. 0:15:39.440 --> 0:15:41.840 If you want another truth, but it doesn't seem to 0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:44.120 have anything. And I just I looked at it and 0:15:44.720 --> 0:15:49.760 I couldn't watch it. And baseball I haven't I haven't 0:15:49.760 --> 0:15:52.120 made a ruling on that yet. In terms of my 0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:54.280 own I haven't had much of a chance to watch it. 0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:58.720 But some sports are working okay and some sports aren't. 0:15:58.720 --> 0:16:01.320 But I thought golf look really good for the p 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:05.880 g A. I didn't miss the fans, and I think that, 0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:10.280 uh probably UFC was a very good one. I am 0:16:10.360 --> 0:16:15.520 not impressed. Somebody tell me hockey works okay, and but 0:16:15.760 --> 0:16:18.320 those sports are meant more for fans. I really believe that. 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.680 I think they meant more for spans. I think basketball 0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:23.320 is going to need its fans back. From what I'm saying, 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:25.960 it looks very dull. I know. I know you're ready 0:16:25.960 --> 0:16:28.200 for the economy to be back rolling in. Sports are 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:30.960 a big part of that, and schools opening are also 0:16:31.000 --> 0:16:33.040 a big part of that. I'm gonna ask you about both. 0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:35.960 But I also wonder do you ever think to yourself, 0:16:36.080 --> 0:16:38.680 I should play a trick on the media and say 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:41.840 the exact opposite of what I actually believe so they'll 0:16:41.880 --> 0:16:44.480 support it. Because it seems like every time you come 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:46.920 out like you say schools should open, and the media 0:16:46.920 --> 0:16:50.080 immediately says, oh, schools can open. But if you had said, hey, 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:52.280 we can't open schools I feel like the media would 0:16:52.280 --> 0:16:54.480 have said, oh, we gotta open schools. The president's crazy. 0:16:54.600 --> 0:16:58.640 Do you ever think about that because they talk about 0:16:58.680 --> 0:17:01.920 it all the time. Nobody else does. I say, Look, 0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:03.800 I could have had the wall built very easy. You know, 0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:05.480 we're building a wall. But it was getting it like 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:09.719 was pulling teeth, and the Democrats opposed, etcetera, etcetera. Like 0:17:09.760 --> 0:17:11.440 you know, you watched that, and now it's being built 0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:14.400 up to two and fifties, two hundred and seventy seven miles. 0:17:14.760 --> 0:17:16.679 It will be done by the end of the year, 0:17:16.720 --> 0:17:18.160 a little bit after the end of the year. It's 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.159 incredible the impact it said. Anyway, if I would have 0:17:20.160 --> 0:17:21.840 said I don't want a wall, they would have given 0:17:21.880 --> 0:17:25.720 it to immediately. If I this hydroxychloroquine, A lot of 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:29.320 doctors swear by it, by my saying it's good. I 0:17:29.359 --> 0:17:31.000 took it for two weeks. You know, there's a little 0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:33.760 outbreak around Washington, and I said, let me have something. 0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:36.080 And I took it for two weeks and it was fine. 0:17:36.119 --> 0:17:37.679 You know, it was great. I didn't have it, I 0:17:37.680 --> 0:17:41.439 didn't get it, and I had no problem whatsoever with it. 0:17:41.560 --> 0:17:43.160 You know, it's been around for a long time. It's 0:17:43.160 --> 0:17:47.240 a hilaria pill actually and lupus and it causes no problem. 0:17:47.440 --> 0:17:50.600 But as soon as I came out with it, they said, oh, 0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:53.680 it doesn't work, and they went crazy. They still are 0:17:53.760 --> 0:17:56.200 on Twitter. It's number one all the time, which is phony. 0:17:56.600 --> 0:18:00.199 It's number one all the time and trending hydroxy you know, 0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:03.040 negative hydroxy stuff. If I would have said I don't 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.560 believe in hydroxychloroque and it's terrible with zinc and with 0:18:07.119 --> 0:18:09.639 you know, the ZPEC is this remind said. If I 0:18:09.640 --> 0:18:12.280 would have said I don't believe in it, it doesn't work, 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:15.240 it would be the hottest thing going right now. Uh No, No, 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:17.720 I say it. I say it all the time. We 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:20.720 could say it about a lot of different things, even religion. 0:18:20.760 --> 0:18:22.399 I when I held the Bible in front of a 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:26.960 church that the the agitators and anarchists, you know they 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:29.359 call them protesters, they tried to burn down a church 0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:31.840 and I held a Bible up in front of the church, 0:18:31.920 --> 0:18:34.199 and they said it was a terrible thing I did so, 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:37.600 I said, I even affect religion negatively, Okay. I hold 0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:39.680 the Bible in front of a church that they tried 0:18:39.720 --> 0:18:43.240 to burn down the day before, and they say, isn't 0:18:43.240 --> 0:18:48.240 he a terrible human being? And I said, I've affected religion, 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:53.520 hydroxy and just about anything else, maybe even your show 0:18:53.640 --> 0:18:55.760 after today, that will be the end. You've got these 0:18:55.760 --> 0:18:58.159 great ratings going. I see Clay, and you have the 0:18:58.200 --> 0:19:01.560 hell of your show. Maybe I will have destroyed your show. 0:19:01.600 --> 0:19:04.479 But you know the injuriesult Our country now is so sot. 0:19:04.560 --> 0:19:07.440 Our military has been rebuilt, our taxes have been cut 0:19:07.480 --> 0:19:10.520 way back, and regulations and what I've done for the 0:19:10.600 --> 0:19:13.200 vets nobody's ever done, nobody has ever even come close 0:19:13.240 --> 0:19:15.040 to doing. And you know so many other things We've 0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:18.760 done more than anybody, including even space force right space. 0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:21.680 So we've done a lot. But we have to fight hard. 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:24.720 Probably I have to fight harder than a lot of 0:19:24.760 --> 0:19:27.080 other people. Last question for you, because I know you've 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:29.280 got a ton of things to go. There's talk that 0:19:29.359 --> 0:19:31.800 Joe Biden is going to announce his vice president either 0:19:31.880 --> 0:19:34.359 today or tomorrow. It seems like it's dragged on for 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:37.280 some time. Who do you think he's gonna pick? Who 0:19:37.359 --> 0:19:40.000 should he pick? I know you like playing the political game. 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:42.280 You weren't a politician for a long time. If you 0:19:42.320 --> 0:19:45.640 were sitting back on your couch watching television and following 0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:47.840 this election, what do you think he's gonna do? What 0:19:47.880 --> 0:19:51.040 do you think he should do? Well? I think that 0:19:51.400 --> 0:19:53.960 I would be inclined to go a different route than 0:19:54.000 --> 0:19:56.159 what he's done, you know, doing it the way he 0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:59.239 First of all, he roped himself into uh, you know, 0:19:59.520 --> 0:20:02.000 a certain group of people would he said he had 0:20:02.040 --> 0:20:05.040 to pick a woman. He said that, and you know, 0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:08.560 some people would say that men are insulted by that, 0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:11.399
