1
00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 1: So it's an honor to be with you, and we'll

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,319
Speaker 1: discuss a couple of points. We'll take some questions later

3
00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:11,239
Speaker 1: if you'd like. I'm sure you might have one or two.

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: I'd be shocked if you didn't, I'd be very impressed.

5
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: But I'm honored to welcome one of the most accomplished

6
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: business leaders of our time, the founder and CEO of

7
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 1: soft Bank. Everybody knows Masa Yoshi San. Masa runs one

8
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: of the largest companies in Japan and among the most

9
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:34,599
Speaker 1: successful investment and technology companies anywhere in the world, one

10
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: of the most successful investors in the world. And we've

11
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:42,400
Speaker 1: just concluded a very productive meeting, and today I'm thrilled

12
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: to announce that soft Bank will be investing one hundred

13
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 1: billion dollars in America, creating one hundred thousand American jobs

14
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: at a minimum. And he's doing this because he feels

15
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: very optimistic about our country since the election. The people

16
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 1: are also coming in with tremendous amounts of money. You

17
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: probably notice that the poll was just taken its businesses. Literally,

18
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: in thirty nine years, there's been nothing like it. It's

19
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: been the biggest increased small business owners gave it a

20
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 1: forty one percent jump. It's the biggest jump that we've

21
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:24,919
Speaker 1: had in thirty nine years, and nobody's ever seen anything

22
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: like it, and it's just they're very optimistic. This historic

23
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 1: investment is a monumental demonstration and confidence in America's future,

24
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: and it will help ensure that artificial intelligence, emerging technologies,

25
00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 1: and other industries of tomorrow are built, created and grown

26
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: right here in the USA. One of the beautiful things

27
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:50,800
Speaker 1: about Massa, he's very much involved with emerging technology. Probably

28
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:53,240
Speaker 1: knows that maybe better than almost anybody.

29
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 2: So it's a great honor.

30
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: And some of you remember after the twenty sixteen election,

31
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,640
Speaker 1: also Soft Bank committed to invest fifty billion dollars in

32
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 1: our country, and they did at a very place to

33
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 1: say that they kept that promise in every way, shape

34
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: and form. And now they're looking to do one hundred

35
00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: and I've looked at their books. They do have the

36
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: possibility of doing more. I'm going to ask him to

37
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: do a little bit more, But first I'm going to

38
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: ask him to speak and.

39
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 2: Just to say a few words.

40
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 1: Master. Please, thank you, thank you, please, thank you, thank

41
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 1: you very appreciate it, thank.

42
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: You, Helen, thank you so much.

43
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,519
Speaker 1: I'm very very excited.

44
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 3: I would really like to celebrate the great victory of

45
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:47,200
Speaker 3: President Trump, and my confidence level to the economy of

46
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 3: the United States has tremendously increased with his victory. So

47
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 3: because of that, I'm now excited to commit this one

48
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,840
Speaker 3: hundred bit dollars and one hundred thousand jobs into the

49
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 3: United States. This is double of last time, as President

50
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 3: Trump said, because I say, oh, President Trump is a

51
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:14,959
Speaker 3: double down.

52
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,839
Speaker 2: President, I'm going to have to double.

53
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 3: Down, you know, one hundred billion dollars and one hundred

54
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 3: thousand jobs. This is you know, my confidence level because

55
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 3: that has doubled down. So I am truly excited to

56
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 3: make this happen. And of course business is important, technology

57
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:41,320
Speaker 3: is important. But one more thing I'm really hoping is

58
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 3: that this President Trump would make the world, bring the

59
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 3: world into peace again. That's my additional hope, and I

60
00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: think he will actually make it happen.

61
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: So anyway, I'm excited to go.

62
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,760
Speaker 3: And we were discussing and President Drum said, MASA, you know,

63
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 3: double that is noted out. Maybe you know, go for more.

64
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: Right, That's what I'm going to ask him right now,

65
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,680
Speaker 1: would you make it two hundred billion dollars And said

66
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 1: he can believe it or not, he can actually afford

67
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 1: to do that. Would you do that? Wow? My promise

68
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:35,239
Speaker 1: is hundred. But you know he's now asking to do more.

69
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 3: I think you know with you have leadership, my partnership,

70
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 3: with you, with your support, I will I will try to.

71
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:45,119
Speaker 1: Make it happen.

72
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 4: Okay, that's good, all right, two hundred He'll make it

73
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 4: happen two hundred millions. He is a great say, he's

74
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,200
Speaker 4: a brilliant guy and did an unbelievable job. And the

75
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 4: people of Japan and all over the world, they're very

76
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 4: proud of him.

77
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 1: They have tremendous respect for him. So when he does

78
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: what he just did, and and I would be surprised

79
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 1: if it if it what didn't go to do. When

80
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 1: you say you'll try, I know you'll do it. I

81
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 1: will really try.

82
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 2: And I need you a SUPPORTO. You'll have my support.

83
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 1: I have our country support. All fantastic, fantastic, thank you.

84
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 1: Thank you to the people of Japan who are all

85
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:29,200
Speaker 1: watching well.

86
00:05:30,279 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: I'm sure our people in Japan proud to make the

87
00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 3: partnership of US and Japan be stronger. And I'm I'm

88
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,680
Speaker 3: very excited to make this happen. Thank you very much.

89
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 3: Thank you, thank you, thank you, please, thank you.

90
00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:56,400
Speaker 1: Great job, thank you. It's amazing. It's a great gentleman,

91
00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,799
Speaker 1: a great uh, a great leader, and a great investor.

92
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,559
Speaker 1: So to have that offerment. And we have so many

93
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: companies coming in now that will be announcing, or they

94
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,480
Speaker 1: will announce themselves. We don't have to be with them

95
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: to do it, but they'll be announcing. And as I said,

96
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,039
Speaker 1: small business optimism took a forty.

97
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: One point jump forty one points.

98
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 1: It went up forty one points. That's unheard of, and

99
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 1: that's the biggest they think in recorded history. But they

100
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 1: know at least a minimum of thirty nine years. So

101
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 1: that's great. But on behalf of the American people, I

102
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 1: want to thank Massa for his faith and what's happening

103
00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: with our country and what's happening with the world. There's

104
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: a whole light over the entire world. Many people, some reporters,

105
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 1: and speaking to them, they said, you know, it actually

106
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,919
Speaker 1: is true. A couple of them are not necessarily friends

107
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: of mine, but they said, it is actually true that

108
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: there's a light shining over the world. We're trying to

109
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: help very strongly in getting the hostages back. As you know,

110
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 1: with Israel and the Middle East, we're working very much

111
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,360
Speaker 1: on that. We're trying to get the war, stop that

112
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 1: horrible ruble war that's going on in Ukraine with Russia. Ukraine,

113
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: we're going to We've got a little progress. It's a

114
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: tough one. It's a nasty one. It's nasty. People are

115
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: being killed at levels that nobody's ever seen. You know.

116
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: It's very level fields and the only thing that stops

117
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: a bullet is a body, a human body, and the

118
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 1: number of soldiers that are being killed on both sides

119
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 1: is astronomical. I've never seen anything like it, and rapidly

120
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 1: I get reports every week and it's not even you know,

121
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: it's like just going down. Nobody's seen anything like it.

122
00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 1: It's a very flat surface, a very flat land. That's

123
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:42,559
Speaker 1: why it's great farming land. Let's see, it's the bread

124
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,120
Speaker 1: basket for the world actually, but it's very flat and

125
00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:49,000
Speaker 1: there's nothing to stop a bullet but a body. There's

126
00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: no protection, no nothing, and it's what's happening there is

127
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 1: far worse than people are reporting for both sides. So

128
00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: we're going to do our best. That we've been doing

129
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 1: our best. Well what happens, but since the election, I've

130
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: been working every day to put the world at ease

131
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 1: a little bit, to get rid of the wars. We

132
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: had no wars when I left office, and now it's

133
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 1: the whole world is blowing up. But there's great optimism,

134
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: and you saw that by SoftBank. Starting on day one,

135
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 1: we'll implement the rapidsers, the bold reforms to restore our

136
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: nation to full prosperity. We're going to go full prosperity

137
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: and to build the greatest economy the world has ever seen,

138
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,760
Speaker 1: just as we had just a short time ago. We

139
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: had it in my turn. We had the greatest economy

140
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 1: that the world had seen. We were blowing away everybody.

141
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 1: Our country was doubling up on China, doubling up on everybody,

142
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 1: and everybody knows it. And then we had to slow

143
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: it down with COVID, unfortunately at the end. But even

144
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: then I gave it back with a substantial increase of

145
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,680
Speaker 1: the sock market, bigger than it.

146
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:57,600
Speaker 2: Was pre COVID, So it was pretty amazing.

147
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:01,720
Speaker 1: Already, preparations are under way to slash massive numbers of

148
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 1: job killing regulationsing eliminating ten old regulations for every new one.

149
00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:09,559
Speaker 1: You put a new regulation on. You have to get

150
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: rid of ten and we'll be able to do it.

151
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 1: And that was about the percentage we had. We cut

152
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: more regulations than any president has ever cut by far,

153
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 1: actually by approximately five times. Some of those regulations, unfortunately,

154
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: were put back on. But we'll catch up very quickly.

155
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: We'll catch up with it. One of the things I'd

156
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:34,960
Speaker 1: like to ask the Biden administration, as you probably heard,

157
00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 1: there are two events that took place. We're talking about

158
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 1: a friendly takeover, a friendly transition, as they like to say,

159
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: this is a friendly transition, and it is, but there

160
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 1: are two events that took place that I think are

161
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 1: very terrible. One is that if people don't come back

162
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 1: to work, come back into.

163
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,079
Speaker 2: The office, they're going to be dismissed.

164
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 1: And somebody in the Biden administration gave a five year

165
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 1: waiver of that so that for five years people don't

166
00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: have to come back into the office. It involved forty

167
00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: nine thousand people for five years, they don't have to go.

168
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:12,240
Speaker 1: They just signed this thing. It's ridiculous. So it was

169
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,120
Speaker 1: like a gift to a union, and we're going to

170
00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: obviously be in court to stop. But the other thing

171
00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 1: is really terrible. We spent a tremendous amount of money

172
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: in building the wall. The wall was designed specifically by

173
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: the Border Patrol because it's very hard to climb. They

174
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: need to have see through They needed to be stealed

175
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,959
Speaker 1: because you can't cut this. It's very powerful steal It's

176
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,720
Speaker 1: very hard steel. It's a special type of steel, but

177
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: very very hard to cut. Inside the seal, as you know,

178
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: we pour concrete and that's a Grade ten concrete, which

179
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 1: is a very strong concrete, very as though you were

180
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: building about a sixty story building. It's very powerful concrete.

181
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 1: They've made tremendous technology advances in the word concrete. Who

182
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 1: would think that, but I know that from the construyduction

183
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,800
Speaker 1: industry today. What you can do with concrete is incredible.

184
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: So we have a very strong concrete and then we

185
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 1: have a rebar. We put rebar inside the concrete and

186
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: the rebar, likewise, is very hard to cut. So it's

187
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 1: a very expensive process, very expensive wall. And then we

188
00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 1: put a anti climb plate on the top. You saw

189
00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,400
Speaker 1: that and I didn't like the look of it, But

190
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: then when I watched we had people testing, We had

191
00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 1: mountain climbers actually testing, and they were not able to

192
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: get over the anti climb plate. So I said, all right,

193
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 1: I guess we're going to put it on that plate

194
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: on top, which I never loved the look of it,

195
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: but it works so unbelievably while you have to do it.

196
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 1: So we spent a lot of money in building it,

197
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 1: and we have hundreds of miles that we put up.

198
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 1: A lot of people don't realize, but we did five

199
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: hundred and seventy one miles of wall. That's why we

200
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 1: had such good records, in addition to the fact that

201
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: Mexico helped us with their military. They kept people out

202
00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 1: and they were actually very good under the best leader.

203
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: Now we ordered an additional two hundred miles of wall.

204
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: It's very expensive, and now it's about double the price

205
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,719
Speaker 1: of what it would have been six years ago, and

206
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 1: the administration is trying to sell it for five cents

207
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 1: on the dollar, knowing that we're getting ready to put

208
00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: it up, and what they're doing is really an act.

209
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 1: It's almost it's almost a criminal act. They know we're

210
00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:28,440
Speaker 1: going to use it, and if we don't have it,

211
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:31,240
Speaker 1: we're going to have to rebuild it, and it'll cost

212
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: double what it costs years ago, and that's hundreds of

213
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:39,199
Speaker 1: millions of dollars, because you're talking about a lot of wall.

214
00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: I built much more than I said I was going

215
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: to build. But then after it was built, I said,

216
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 1: you know, we can do some more because it's sort

217
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 1: of like water people flow through and that will pretty

218
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,040
Speaker 1: much really take care of it. And what happened is

219
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,680
Speaker 1: they just as you see, they're trying to sell it

220
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 1: for five cents of the dollar. And that's really that

221
00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with a smooth transition. That has

222
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:07,240
Speaker 1: to do with people really trying to stop our nation.

223
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 2: And all it.

224
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: Means really is that we're going to spend hundreds of

225
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: millions of dollars more, not even talking about the time.

226
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,800
Speaker 1: Time would be pretty long, but we'll spend hundreds of

227
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:23,880
Speaker 1: millions of dollars more on building the same wall that

228
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,640
Speaker 1: we already have. And people have already come back to

229
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: us that have deals at five cents and four cents,

230
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: and one guy at three cents on the dollar, and

231
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,640
Speaker 1: they offered to sell it back to us at more

232
00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 1: money than it costs us to build substantially, can you

233
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 1: believe it? So they make a deal with the United

234
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 1: States to buy it for pennies and then they call

235
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 1: us and they say, do you want to buy it back?

236
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: We'll sell it back to you for hundreds of dollars

237
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: a foot, hundreds of dollars from pennies to hundreds of

238
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,800
Speaker 1: dollars a foot, and we can't let this take plus

239
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 1: now we're going to go. I spoke with the Attorney

240
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 1: General of Texas. I spoke to the Senators of Texas.

241
00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 1: I spoke to a lot of people, and hopefully they'll

242
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: be able to stop. We're going to be having a

243
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: restraining order. But just think about how ridiculous it is.

244
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 1: And this is just people that don't want this country

245
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: to succeed. And this has nothing to do with Democrat

246
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: or Republican. This has to do with common sense. We

247
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 1: won on common sense, and this is maybe one of

248
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 1: the most egregious examples I've seen. So the people that

249
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: are buying it, are trying to buy it, are trying

250
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 1: to make a deal with us to sell it back

251
00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,800
Speaker 1: at hundreds of times more, hundreds of times more than

252
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 1: we paid. And this is all because the debre So

253
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 1: I'm asking today Joe Biden to please stop selling the world.

254
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 1: We're going to use that to create a strong barrier.

255
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 1: And it worked. That's why our numbers was so good.

256
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: It really worked, and it worked well, and it's very

257
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: expensive to and I'm asking Joe Biden to stop his

258
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: people from giving it away. It's something that people can't

259
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:12,680
Speaker 1: even believe is happening. So hopefully Joe will be able

260
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:16,520
Speaker 1: to stop it. We'll soon un leash American energy and

261
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: this will be done at levels not seen before, issuing

262
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:24,120
Speaker 1: quick approvals for pipelines, drilling another infrastructure. It'll be clean energy,

263
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 1: and we'll bring in the price of electricity and we're

264
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: going to bring it down fast. We're also going to

265
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: create clean coal. Clean coal is something that has really

266
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 1: taken over. We have coal that will last for over

267
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 1: a thousand years. We have so much coal, and with

268
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 1: a process, it becomes clean call. It's very powerful energy.

269
00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: Unlike wind.

270
00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 2: It's very very.

271
00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: Powerful, and we're going to be doing a lot of

272
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: clean coal for the people of West Virginia and others, Wyoming,

273
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:58,200
Speaker 1: so many states. We have great states, and they'll be

274
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 1: happy to hear it. But we're going to be very

275
00:16:00,640 --> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: much into clean call. I don't ever use the word call.

276
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: I use the word clean call. And I'll keep my

277
00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: promise to pass historic tax cuts for American families, workers

278
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 1: and businesses that create jobs in America. As you know,

279
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: we're giving tax cuts if they do it. Here. We

280
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: brought it down from forty four percent forty two percent.

281
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 2: In some cases it was thirty nine.

282
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: We brought it all the way down to twenty one percent,

283
00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: and now we're bringing it down to fifteen but only

284
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,840
Speaker 1: if they make their product, their car or whatever they're

285
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: doing in the United States in the US and people

286
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: are thrilled. I've had the smartest people on Walshe called me.

287
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,440
Speaker 1: They said, where'd you get that idea? And it doesn't

288
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: seem that complicated, right, but it's nobody else. It's like

289
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: the paper clip. Nobody ever thought of it. One guy

290
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: thought of it. Everybody looked at it and they said, Wow,

291
00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 1: that was a good idea. Why didn't I think of it?

292
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,200
Speaker 1: But we're bringing it down six more points and that

293
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:55,920
Speaker 1: will put.

294
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 2: Us really at the.

295
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,760
Speaker 1: Best lef level we've ever had for bringing in business.

296
00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 1: We've never been down to. That level, will be among

297
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: the lowest tax states, and a lot of businesses are

298
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 1: going to come in Between that and our taxing and

299
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:14,720
Speaker 1: tariff policies, We're going to have business like nobody's ever

300
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 1: seen in this country before. That's why we're having a

301
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:21,640
Speaker 1: forty one year record in optimism from small businesses and

302
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:25,520
Speaker 1: big businesses. And I'll keep my promise to pass historic

303
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 1: tax cuts for families, workers, and businesses that create jobs

304
00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 1: in America. Any business that invest one billion dollars more

305
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 1: in the United States will be eligible for fully expedited

306
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:41,600
Speaker 1: permits and approvals, including environmental approvals, from the federal government.

307
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,679
Speaker 1: So when companies come in, if they're going to invest

308
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 1: a billion dollars and more, there'll be many of them,

309
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,399
Speaker 1: and they'll go into Detroit, and they're going to a

310
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: lot of places where we want them. You saw how

311
00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:55,280
Speaker 1: well I did with the Order Workers. We did unbelievably well.

312
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 1: You saw how well we did with the Teamsters, and

313
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: and also the non union where a record ninety eight percent,

314
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: ninety seven percent. Nobody's ever got numbers like that. Because

315
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 1: we're bringing business back, and they're all coming back. We

316
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: lost them over years of stupidity. I call it the

317
00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 1: years of stupidity, the decades of stupidity. Through the Department

318
00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:21,160
Speaker 1: of Government Deficiency, Elon Musk has been working very hard

319
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 1: with various people, including Vivek will go to eliminate hundreds

320
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 1: of billions of dollars of wasted fraud. And I can

321
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 1: only tell you, I'll give you a little early report.

322
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,000
Speaker 1: They're finding things that you wouldn't even believe. So we're

323
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: looking to say maybe two trillion dollars and it'll have

324
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,439
Speaker 1: no impact. Actually it'll make life better, but it'll have

325
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: no impact on people.

326
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 2: It's not like we're we.

327
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,480
Speaker 1: Will never cut social security things like that.

328
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 2: It's just waste, fraud and abuse.

329
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:53,320
Speaker 1: And we'll immediately restore the sovereign borders of the United

330
00:18:53,320 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: States and stop illegal immigration, which is costing US I

331
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 1: believe trillions of dollars a year. I think it's that

332
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:03,920
Speaker 1: nobody's ever seen anything like it. I don't know how

333
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 1: can you be satisfied releasing prisoners into the Uniteds. To

334
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 1: think of this, you're releasing prisoners from jails all over

335
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,719
Speaker 1: the world, not just in South America, from the Congo.

336
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:17,480
Speaker 1: I would talk about it all the time. They're a

337
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,520
Speaker 1: very big sender of people, but from all over the world.

338
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:24,640
Speaker 1: They're sending prisoners out of their jails. Some of their

339
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 1: jails are empty, and they will be empty soon if

340
00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 1: this ever continued. I spoke with the president of Mexico,

341
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: and as you know, I spoke with Justin Trudeau of

342
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:39,440
Speaker 1: Canada and we told them it's not fair, not right.

343
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 1: Can't let these people come into our country. And they understand,

344
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,119
Speaker 1: they're very much unnotice and they're going to have to

345
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 1: stop this from happening. They're going to have to stop it.

346
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 1: We lose a lot of money to Mexico, We lose

347
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 1: a lot of money to Canada, tremendous money. We're subsidizing

348
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 1: Canada with subsidizing Mexico. That can't go wrong. Then I

349
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 1: get along with the people of Mexico in Canada very well,

350
00:20:01,080 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 1: but we can't let that happen. Why are we supporting

351
00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 1: and giving other countries hundreds of billions of dollars. It's

352
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 1: not fair, it's not right, and the people of Mexico

353
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,760
Speaker 1: and Canada fully understand that. We've talked about it before,

354
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 1: but now we're doing something about it. We started and

355
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: then we had to fix the COVID situation, and that's

356
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: what we did. But now we're doing it. We're doing

357
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,480
Speaker 1: it from the beginning. Howard will be largely in charge.

358
00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 1: We'll be working on her together. Howard's terrific he's done

359
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,040
Speaker 1: a fantastic job, and he's really helped us a lot

360
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: with transition.

361
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,679
Speaker 2: I think we have fantastic people coming in.

362
00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: So all of these policies will help us rapidly defeat inflation,

363
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,199
Speaker 1: create millions of new jobs, and put money in the

364
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 1: pockets of the hard working families of our country. Payoff debt.

365
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 1: We're going to be paying off a tremendous amount of debt.

366
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 1: We're thirty six trillion dollars, you know, want to be there.

367
00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,399
Speaker 1: And we're going to be using a lot of the

368
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: money that we make. We're going to be opening up

369
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,239
Speaker 1: a lot of businesses are going to be pouring in

370
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: because of our tax policy, and we're going to use

371
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 1: the money that we made to pay off debt and

372
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: to reduce taxes. We're going to further reduce taxes. If

373
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: you remember when we reduced them last time, that brought

374
00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 1: a tremendous amount. We brought it down to twenty one percent,

375
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: and that was the biggest That was the biggest tax

376
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,880
Speaker 1: cut in the history of our country. And nobody ever

377
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: thought this would happen, but this is what's supposed to happen.

378
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 1: We actually ended up taking in more revenue at twenty

379
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,120
Speaker 1: one that we did at forty percent, which was pretty amazing.

380
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,199
Speaker 1: But this will be the most exciting and successful period

381
00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: of reform and renewal in all of American history, maybe

382
00:21:41,160 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 1: of global history. The Golden Age of America. I call it.

383
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: It's begun. So it's the Golden Age of America. And

384
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: that's what it's going to be. And we hope we

385
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: don't have any intervening problems because things happen, like out

386
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:59,360
Speaker 1: of nowhere came the chinavirus, out of nowhere came other

387
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,880
Speaker 1: things we don't want to have. You know, when I left,

388
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 1: we had no wars, we had no problems. The Middle

389
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 1: East was good. We did the Abraham accurts, We did

390
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:12,040
Speaker 1: things that nobody thought were even possible. But think of it.

391
00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:15,280
Speaker 1: Four years ago, we had no wars. You didn't have

392
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 1: Russia going into Ukraine. They wouldn't have done it. They

393
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,439
Speaker 1: weren't even thinking about it when they saw what happened

394
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:22,240
Speaker 1: in Afghanistan.

395
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 2: I think they gave them an idea, but they wouldn't

396
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:24,199
Speaker 2: have done it.

397
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: They would have never gone President Putin would have never

398
00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: gone in. And now you look at all those people

399
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: are dead, all those cities are destroyed. You know, it's

400
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 1: nice to say they want their land back, but the

401
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:42,040
Speaker 1: cities are largely destroyed. They've left Kiev because probably maybe

402
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 1: they want to use it or occupy it, but they

403
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 1: haven't done it. They've done a lot of damage, but

404
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:51,680
Speaker 1: relatively compared to the other cities, very little. But many

405
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:55,440
Speaker 1: of those cities are gone. Those beautiful towers, beautiful, those

406
00:22:55,480 --> 00:23:02,200
Speaker 1: beautiful buildings that they had are now laying on their sides, destroyed,

407
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: totally destroyed. The turrets and all of the magnificent thousand

408
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: year old two thousand year old structures that were very

409
00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: strong are in are blown to smitherings. You look at

410
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: some of those cities and not one building standing. So

411
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,280
Speaker 1: you know, when you say take over the country, take

412
00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 1: over what, take over what? That's one hundred year rebuilt.

413
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: Take one hundred years to rebuild it, and you can

414
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:28,879
Speaker 1: never have it the way it was.

415
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 2: What a shame. It should have never happened.

416
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,960
Speaker 1: It would have never happened if I were president, that

417
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 1: war would have never happened, nor would Israel have happened

418
00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: with the attack on Israel. So we're inheriting big challenges

419
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: at home and all over the world. Again. We had

420
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 1: no wars, we had no problems, we had no inflation.

421
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 1: We had no inflation. We had at less than one percent,

422
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:56,160
Speaker 1: a perfect number. And then we had inflation the likes

423
00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,719
Speaker 1: of which I say, I don't believe the country's ever

424
00:23:58,760 --> 00:24:01,480
Speaker 1: seen inflation like that, say, thirty eight years, I don't know.

425
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: I think it's I think it's probably ever. But we're

426
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,239
Speaker 1: going to take care of all of it. We're going

427
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 1: to get the prices down by energy. The energy is

428
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:11,359
Speaker 1: going to come in. We have more energy than anybody else.

429
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: We're going to use it. We don't have to buy

430
00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,199
Speaker 1: energy from Venezuela when we have fifty times more than

431
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: they do. It's just insane what we're doing. So we

432
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 1: will not rest until America is richer, safer, and stronger

433
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:27,199
Speaker 1: than it has ever been before. And we have a

434
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,480
Speaker 1: big head start. Last time we didn't, and last time

435
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,840
Speaker 1: we didn't know the people, we didn't know a lot

436
00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: of things. But by the time we got it up

437
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,719
Speaker 1: and going, it was incredible. Again. We built the greatest

438
00:24:37,760 --> 00:24:40,920
Speaker 1: economy in history for that period of time, and we'll

439
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 1: do it again, I believe substantially more so because we

440
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: understand Number one, the people of Washington, I know them.

441
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,479
Speaker 1: I didn't know any of them. Virtually. I relied on

442
00:24:51,560 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: other people for recommendations. Some were very good recommendations. We

443
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 1: had some great people, Bob Leithheiser, I thought it was great.

444
00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 1: We had a lot of great people, but we had

445
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 1: some people that I wouldn't have used in retrospect. And

446
00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: now I know him better than anybody, better than they

447
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,879
Speaker 1: know themselves. So once again, i'd like to thank Masa

448
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,960
Speaker 1: for what he's done with that investment, which will end

449
00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: up being two hundred billion dollars I believe, but I

450
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: just want to thank him. Just an outstanding man when

451
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:23,479
Speaker 1: you have that kind of brain power wanting to invest

452
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,159
Speaker 1: in this country, and that's money that he.

453
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:27,280
Speaker 2: Can invest elsewhere.

454
00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,120
Speaker 1: So that's a big investment but makes me feel very good,

455
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 1: makes me feel that we're absolutely on the right track.

456
00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,680
Speaker 1: So thank you, Tomasa, And we'll take a couple of questions. Yeah,

457
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 1: but Jeff tell us what he said doing your call

458
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:43,360
Speaker 1: on Saturday.

459
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,280
Speaker 5: Have you spoken to President.

460
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,160
Speaker 1: Well, I'm not going to comment on the putin question,

461
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: but I will comment on bb We had a very

462
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:58,159
Speaker 1: good talk. We discussed what is going to happen, and

463
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 1: I'll be very available on January twentieth, and we'll see.

464
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 1: As you know, I gave warning that if these hostages

465
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,680
Speaker 1: aren't back home by that date, all hell's going to

466
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:15,280
Speaker 1: break out and very strong. But we generally just discussed you.

467
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 1: I asked him, where are things? Mike Waltz is They're

468
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,160
Speaker 1: doing a great job. By the way, everybody is very happy.

469
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,439
Speaker 1: I think he's doing a fantastic job. But he was

470
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: very much involved in the call. But it was a

471
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: recap call more than anything else, to stop the band

472
00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: to TXT month.

473
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 6: Who how do you plan to stop the band.

474
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,520
Speaker 1: On TikTok next month? I will take a look at TikTok.

475
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: You know, I have a warm spot in my heart

476
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 1: for TikTok because I won youth by thirty four points.

477
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 1: And there are those that say that TikTok has something

478
00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:53,919
Speaker 1: to do with it. Now Joe Rogan did, and some

479
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: of the other people that were recommended by my son Barone,

480
00:26:57,400 --> 00:26:59,440
Speaker 1: who have any knew names? I said, who is that?

481
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,359
Speaker 1: Tell me who's that? Dad? You gotta be kidding. I

482
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 1: can't believe you don't know. And I did those interviews

483
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 1: and it was actually sort of cute. Do you want

484
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: another truth? But we did them and that had an impact.

485
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,159
Speaker 1: But TikTok had an impact, and so we're taking a

486
00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 1: look at it. But you know, we won youth. Republicans

487
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: are always thirty points down in youth. I don't know why,

488
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: but we ended up finishing. We were There was one

489
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: poll that showed us down about thirty We were thirty

490
00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: five or thirty six points up with young people.

491
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,159
Speaker 2: So I have a little bit of a warm spot

492
00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:32,200
Speaker 2: in my heart. I'll be honest.

493
00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:35,679
Speaker 1: Yes, please are you? Are you entertaining the idea of

494
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,600
Speaker 1: preemptive strikes against your rom's nuclear facilities?

495
00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 2: Agains who against the Iran's nuclear.

496
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,719
Speaker 1: Well, I can't tell you that. I mean, I mean,

497
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,000
Speaker 1: it's a wonderful question, But how can I? Am I

498
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,160
Speaker 1: going to do preemptive strikes? Why would I say that?

499
00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: Can you imagine if I said yes or no, you'd

500
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:55,880
Speaker 1: say that was strange that he answered that, quay am

501
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,879
Speaker 1: I going to do preemptive strikes? Or Iran is?

502
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 2: I had a serious question. How could I answer a

503
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:08,280
Speaker 2: question like that, say it support of.

504
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: Its railing strikes on your line? How could I tell

505
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 1: you a thing like that? Now, it's just so you

506
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 1: don't talk about that before something may or may not happen.

507
00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: You know, just I don't want to I don't want

508
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,959
Speaker 1: to insult you. I just think it's just not something

509
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: that I would ever answer having to do with their

510
00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:31,040
Speaker 1: or any other place in the world. As just clearly,

511
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:37,159
Speaker 1: do you believe there's a connection between vaccines and autism? Well,

512
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:41,000
Speaker 1: I don't. Look right now, you have some very brilliant

513
00:28:41,000 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: people looking at it. I had dinner the other night

514
00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:45,720
Speaker 1: with the head of Pfizer, the head of ELI Lilly

515
00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:51,080
Speaker 1: and RFK as you know, and Oz and we had

516
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 1: and other people within the administration that are involved in

517
00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: the medical and we're looking to find out. You know,

518
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 1: if you look at autism, so thirty years ago we

519
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 1: had I've heard numbers of like one in two hundred

520
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 1: thousand and one in one hundred thousand, and now I'm

521
00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 1: hearing numbers of one in one hundred. So something's wrong.

522
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: There's something wrong, and we're going to find out about it.

523
00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 1: That's why I go ahead place NBC. Can I follow

524
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: up on Robert Kennedy. He's on the hill today, he's

525
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 1: meeting with senators.

526
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,360
Speaker 5: What do you say to people who are worried that his.

527
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 6: Views on vaccines will translate into policies that will make

528
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 6: their kids less sick.

529
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,680
Speaker 1: No, I think he's going to be much less radical

530
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:37,360
Speaker 1: than you would think. I think he's got a very

531
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: open mind, or I wouldn't have put him there. He's

532
00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:39,800
Speaker 1: going to be.

533
00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,920
Speaker 2: Very much less radical. But there are problems.

534
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:44,800
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't do as well as a lot

535
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 1: of other nations, and those nations use nothing. And we're

536
00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: going to find out what those problems are. And another

537
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,120
Speaker 1: thing that came up the dinner was fascinating because they

538
00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:57,760
Speaker 1: had Bobby and I had again the head of Pfizer.

539
00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,640
Speaker 1: You know that is he's a a highly respected man

540
00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,959
Speaker 1: who has run an incredible company. Likewise with Lily, the

541
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,479
Speaker 1: top two people, and we had the head of the

542
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 1: industry also, so all companies were represented, and I said,

543
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 1: let's have it out now a little bit. And you

544
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:16,640
Speaker 1: know what came out of that meeting is that we're

545
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,920
Speaker 1: paying far too much because we're paying much more than

546
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 1: other countries, and we have laws that make it impossible

547
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: to reduce and we have a thing called the middleman,

548
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 1: you know, the middleman, right, the horrible middleman that makes

549
00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 1: more money frankly than the drug companies, and they don't

550
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: do anything except they're a middleman.

551
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:34,720
Speaker 2: We're going to knock out the middleman.

552
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: I'm going to be very unpopular after that statement. I

553
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: don't know who these I don't know who these middlemen are,

554
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 1: but they are riches. Now we're going to knock out

555
00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,440
Speaker 1: the middleman. We're going to get drug costs down at

556
00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 1: levels that nobody has ever seen before. And that's really

557
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: I tell you. We spent more time talking about that

558
00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 1: with Bobby and with the executives and Oz, all of them.

559
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: We spent more time talking about that than anything else.

560
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 6: What about the polio vaccine.

561
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: Well, I'm a big believer in it, and I think

562
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:12,920
Speaker 1: everything should be looked at, but I'm a big believer

563
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: in the polio vaccine, the Salk vaccine. Should mandate vaccines?

564
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 6: Do you think schools should mandate vaccines?

565
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,160
Speaker 1: I don't like mandates. I'm not a big mandate person,

566
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: So you know, I was against mandates. Mostly Democrat governors

567
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,440
Speaker 1: did the mandates, and they did a very poor thing.

568
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: You know, in retrospect, they made a big mistake having

569
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 1: to do with the education of children. You know, they

570
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:37,719
Speaker 1: lost like a year or two years of their lives.

571
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 1: The mandate was a bad thing. I was against the mandate, Yes, please.

572
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,080
Speaker 7: Do you think that's Ron is the antists or point

573
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 7: large Trump to find a market Rubio seat.

574
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:53,080
Speaker 1: No, I don't. I probably don't, But I don't know.

575
00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 1: Ron's doing a good job. That's his choice, nothing to

576
00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 1: do with me. Laura's un believable. I mean, she was

577
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 1: incredible the job she did at the RNC shareman along

578
00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 1: with Michael Whatley, the combination. But I can just speak

579
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: for Laura. She is so highly respected by women. I

580
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:19,040
Speaker 1: mean even her workout routines are through the roof. She

581
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,880
Speaker 1: lifts one hundred and fifty pounds. I don't know how

582
00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 1: to hell she does it. She's a bad example for

583
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,720
Speaker 1: men and women's sports car because I wouldn't be able

584
00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: to beat her. I don't believe. I try like hell,

585
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,160
Speaker 1: but no, She's an incredible woman. And you know it's

586
00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 1: funny people oftentimes talk about nepotism. I never had. When

587
00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: I put her there, people said, how did you get

588
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: her to do it? You know, she could have run

589
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: for the Senate of North Carolina. Ted Budd would be

590
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,000
Speaker 1: the first to say, and he wouldn't have run. Nobody

591
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 1: would have run. And she just said, no, I want

592
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: to really focus on my children when the election, and

593
00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,120
Speaker 1: my family says a great family. When the election and

594
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 1: started getting closer, I asked her, would you go to

595
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:07,200
Speaker 1: Washington and work on the Chairman of the committee along

596
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 1: with Michael Watley. And they did such an unbelievable job,

597
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:17,320
Speaker 1: especially on cheating. They stopped it, or at least they

598
00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 1: stymied it. Too big to rig and we wanted a landslide.

599
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: You know, we won tremendously. She did an amazing job.

600
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 1: Now Ron is going to have to make because Marco

601
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:31,320
Speaker 1: has been really a star already and we haven't started.

602
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 1: But you know, we see signs of from some people,

603
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:39,120
Speaker 1: or very early we see signs of stardom. And Marco

604
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 1: has done incredibly. He's sort of born for it. It

605
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,520
Speaker 1: was such an easy decision. The Marco decision was such

606
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: an easy But he leaves a vacancy in Florida, and

607
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 1: Ron's going to have to make that decision, and he'll

608
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 1: make the right decision. I also know that Laura's got

609
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 1: so many other things. I mean, she's got so many

610
00:33:58,880 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: other things. People want her to be on television, They

611
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: want to give her a contract. You know, her predominant

612
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:09,000
Speaker 1: thought is our country and her family. Those are her thoughts,

613
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,880
Speaker 1: but she's got so many other things that she's talking about.

614
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 1: He'll he'll make He'll make the right decision.

615
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,279
Speaker 5: Senators, who oppose your nominees or patt nominie, should they

616
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:20,759
Speaker 5: be prom her?

617
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 1: If they are unreasonable, I'll give you a different answer

618
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: and answer that you'll be shocked to hear. If they're unreasonable,

619
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 1: if they're opposing somebody for political reasons or stupid reasons,

620
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:37,920
Speaker 1: I would say has nothing to do with me.

621
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:39,880
Speaker 2: I would say they probably would be primary.

622
00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,880
Speaker 1: But if they're reasonable, fair and really disagree with something

623
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 1: or somebody, I can see that happening. But I do

624
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:50,640
Speaker 1: believe that if they are unreal, I think we have

625
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,280
Speaker 1: great people. I think we have a great a great

626
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,279
Speaker 1: group of people. Pam has been unbelievably received. To take

627
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:02,480
Speaker 1: a look, Pam Bondy so have been just unbelievably received.

628
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: I think Pete Heggsth is making tremendous strides over the

629
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,839
Speaker 1: last week. He's going to be great. Look, he went

630
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: to Princeton, he went to Harvard. He was a great

631
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,719
Speaker 1: student there, but he really was. From the first day

632
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 1: I met him, all he wanted to talk about was military.

633
00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:19,720
Speaker 1: It's just a military guy. I think it's a natural.

634
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 1: This was my idea. And you know, Pete Heggsth gave

635
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 1: up a lot because he was going big places in Fox,

636
00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 1: big big places, a lot of money, and he didn't

637
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,759
Speaker 1: even hesitate When I said, do you want to do this?

638
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 2: He said absolutely. I said, you know, if it doesn't.

639
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: Work out, you'll never have the opportunity that you have

640
00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: right now in terms of the world of entertainment or business,

641
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,160
Speaker 1: whatever you want to call it. You'll never have that

642
00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,120
Speaker 1: opportunity again. In fact, it could be just the opposite,

643
00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: because it's nasty out there. He said, I don't care.

644
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:54,080
Speaker 1: I have to do it for my country. He gave

645
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:57,040
Speaker 1: up a tremendous amount of this certain work. It would

646
00:35:57,040 --> 00:36:00,799
Speaker 1: be it would be a tragedy because but that's what

647
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: he loves. He loves the military. I never talked to

648
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 1: him about anything else. He'd talked about the military. He'd

649
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: come to see me about a soldier that was unfairly

650
00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: treated and could I help. That's the only thing I

651
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:16,160
Speaker 1: virtually ever talked to him about. And I always remembered

652
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,279
Speaker 1: that I've seen him many times, and I don't think

653
00:36:18,280 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 1: I've ever had a subject on anything other than military.

654
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 1: With him, that's where his love is. And he didn't say, well,

655
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,919
Speaker 1: I'd like to think about it. I'd like to talk

656
00:36:26,960 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: to my family, he said, not even a contest. And

657
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,880
Speaker 1: you know, he was going through the roof over that

658
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,240
Speaker 1: he was doing great. They have the number one show

659
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:40,120
Speaker 1: that Saturday and Sunday with Will and Rachel. That was

660
00:36:40,160 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 1: great chemistry and if this didn't work out for him,

661
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:52,920
Speaker 1: it would be actually sort of tragic. Yeah, yeah, I would. Well, yeah,

662
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: I think that he was treated pretty unfairly. Now I

663
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: haven't seen the gravity of it all, but it seems,

664
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 1: you know, like being upgraded in an airplane many years ago.

665
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,520
Speaker 1: I know probably everybody here has been upgrade. They see

666
00:37:05,560 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 1: your all stars and they say, I want to upgrade.

667
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:10,200
Speaker 2: That person from NBC.

668
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 1: I'm going to upgrade him, and that would mean you'll

669
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:14,959
Speaker 1: spend the rest of your life in prison. I don't

670
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,600
Speaker 1: know somehow I would. I mean, i'd have to see it,

671
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 1: because I don't know the facts. I think he was treated.

672
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:24,760
Speaker 1: You know, it's very interesting when he essentially went against

673
00:37:24,760 --> 00:37:28,319
Speaker 1: what was happening with the migrants coming in, and you know,

674
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 1: he made some pretty strong statements like this, is not sustainable.

675
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: I said, you know what, he'll be indicted soon. And

676
00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:39,359
Speaker 1: I said it not as a prediction, a little bit lightheartedly,

677
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,560
Speaker 1: but I said it. I said, he's going to be indicted,

678
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 1: and a few months later I got indicted. So I

679
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,000
Speaker 1: would certainly look at it.

680
00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 2: Yes, with the nine hundred.

681
00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:55,000
Speaker 6: Troops in Syria, are you planning on pulling out when

682
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:55,719
Speaker 6: you didn't taught this?

683
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:59,640
Speaker 1: Or well, you know, we are five thousand troops along

684
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 1: the b And I asked a couple of generals. So

685
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,480
Speaker 1: we have an army of two hundred and fifty thousand

686
00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 1: in Syria and you had an army of four hundred thousand.

687
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,000
Speaker 1: They have many more people than that. Turkey is a

688
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,160
Speaker 1: major force, by the way, and everyone is somebody I

689
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:15,959
Speaker 1: got along with great, But he has a major military force,

690
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:20,440
Speaker 1: and his has not been worn out with war. It

691
00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:22,600
Speaker 1: hasn't been worn out with all of the other day.

692
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 1: I mean, he's built a very strong, powerful army. And

693
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,359
Speaker 1: so we have five thousand soldiers in between a five

694
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,840
Speaker 1: million person army and a two hundred and fifty thousand

695
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: person army. And I asked the general what do you

696
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,960
Speaker 1: think of that situation? He said, they'll be just they'll

697
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 1: be wiped out immediately. And I moved them out because

698
00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 1: and I took a lot of heat, and you know

699
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:50,080
Speaker 1: what happened, nothing, nothing, I saved a lot of lives.

700
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:51,760
Speaker 1: Now we have nine hundred.

701
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:52,319
Speaker 2: They put some.

702
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:56,600
Speaker 1: Back, but nine hundred if you're talking about too now

703
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,919
Speaker 1: that one of the sides has been essentially wiped out.

704
00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 2: But nobody knows who the other side is.

705
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 1: But I do you know it is Turkey, Okay, Turkey

706
00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:07,959
Speaker 1: is the one behind it. He's a very smart guy.

707
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 1: They've wanted it for thousands of years and he got it.

708
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:18,480
Speaker 1: And those people that went in are controlled by Turkey,

709
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,040
Speaker 1: and that's okay. It's another way to fight. But no,

710
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:25,240
Speaker 1: I don't think that I want to have our soldiers killed.

711
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: But I don't think that will happen now anyway, because

712
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:35,880
Speaker 1: the one side's been decimated'scerned about more unvested in that region?

713
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 1: Or do you think it will? Well, nobody knows what

714
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,480
Speaker 1: the final outcome is going to be in the region.

715
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,200
Speaker 1: You know, nobody knows who really the final I believe

716
00:39:43,239 --> 00:39:46,920
Speaker 1: it's Turkey, and I think Turkey is very smart. He's

717
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:51,200
Speaker 1: a very smart guy, and he's very tough. But Turkey

718
00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 1: did an unfriendly takeover without a lot of lives being lost.

719
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,120
Speaker 1: I can say that Asad was a butcher. Hear what

720
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:02,520
Speaker 1: he did to children. Remember, I attacked him with the

721
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:09,640
Speaker 1: fifty eight missiles, unbelievable missiles coming from ships seven hundred

722
00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,080
Speaker 1: miles away, and every one of them hit their target.

723
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:14,360
Speaker 2: But I did that. That was the red line in

724
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:14,840
Speaker 2: the sand.

725
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,839
Speaker 1: Obama drew it, and then he refused to honor what

726
00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:20,399
Speaker 1: he did. He said, if anybody goes across the red line,

727
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 1: and Assad killed many more children after that, and Obama

728
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:26,360
Speaker 1: did nothing, But I did. I hit it with a

729
00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: lot of missiles. In fact, President she was sitting here

730
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 1: the night. He was in that dining room having chocolate cake,

731
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: remember the famous chocolate cake. And that's when I explained

732
00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,840
Speaker 1: to what we were doing as the missiles were shot.

733
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:45,279
Speaker 1: And it was amazing as to precision, because every one

734
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:49,800
Speaker 1: of those missiles hit its target from a long distance away.

735
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 1: Had President Obama drawn the line and where it meant something,

736
00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,480
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have even had Russia there. But in the

737
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 1: end understood why Russia went there. They were not getting

738
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 1: very much out of it. But now their time is

739
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,600
Speaker 1: taken up with Ukraine and we'd like to get them

740
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 1: to stop on Ukraine and Ukraine stop. Also, as you know,

741
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: when I went to the cathedral, which is fantastic, the

742
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 1: job that they've done in France and the job that Macron,

743
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 1: you know, Emmanuel did. He did a phenomenal job on

744
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 1: the rebuilding of that cathedral.

745
00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 2: It's magnificent.

746
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:29,239
Speaker 1: And they did a great thing, and they had great

747
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,520
Speaker 1: respect for our country. They treated me meaning I'm the country,

748
00:41:32,560 --> 00:41:36,080
Speaker 1: I'm the representative of our country, and we were treated

749
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 1: with great respect. And one of the people that came

750
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 1: to pay his respects is as you know, Ukraine, Zelensky,

751
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,360
Speaker 1: and he would like to have peace. He wants peace.

752
00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:56,480
Speaker 1: Everyone's being killed. It's the worst carnage that this world

753
00:41:56,520 --> 00:42:00,480
Speaker 1: has seen since World War Two. I've have pictures of

754
00:42:00,560 --> 00:42:04,120
Speaker 1: fields where bodies are lying on top of bodies, looks

755
00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,040
Speaker 1: like the old pictures of the Civil War.

756
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 2: We're just bodies are all over.

757
00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,759
Speaker 1: Just if you if you saw those pictures, you'd feel

758
00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,320
Speaker 1: more strongly about it. It's got to stop. And we're trying,

759
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:19,080
Speaker 1: and we're trying to get it to sell. Well, we're

760
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 1: gonna we're gonna see that, we're going to be talking.

761
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: We'll be talking to President Putin, and we'll be talking

762
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:28,759
Speaker 1: to the representatives and Lenskin representatives from Ukraine. We've got

763
00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 1: to stop it. It's uh, it's carnage.

764
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

765
00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 1: First of all, good to see you, Thank you, Good

766
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:35,839
Speaker 1: to see you.

767
00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, good to see you.

768
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:39,640
Speaker 5: Can you comment on the drones that are flying around

769
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,840
Speaker 5: New Jersey and the ports, and it seems like the

770
00:42:41,920 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 5: there people have a big distinct government.

771
00:42:44,000 --> 00:42:49,959
Speaker 1: The government knows what is happening. Look, our military knows

772
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 1: where they took off from.

773
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:54,840
Speaker 2: If it's a garage, they can go right into that garage.

774
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,600
Speaker 1: They know where it came from and where it went.

775
00:42:58,880 --> 00:43:00,760
Speaker 1: And for some reason that I don't want to comment,

776
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: and I think they'd be better of saying what it is.

777
00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 1: Our military knows, and our president knows, and for some

778
00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 1: reason they want to keep people in suspense. I can't

779
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,160
Speaker 1: imagine it's the enemy, because it was the enemy. They'd

780
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:18,160
Speaker 1: blasted out, even if they were late, they'd blasted Something

781
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: strange is going on. For some reason, they don't want

782
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:22,360
Speaker 1: to tell the people, and they should because the people

783
00:43:22,400 --> 00:43:25,440
Speaker 1: are really I mean, they happen to be over Bedminster.

784
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:29,080
Speaker 1: I want to know the truth. They're very they're they're

785
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:31,439
Speaker 1: very close to Bedminster. I think maybe I won't spend

786
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:35,200
Speaker 1: the weekend in Bedminster. I've decided to cancel my trip.

787
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 1: I don't want to comment on that.

788
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,919
Speaker 6: Yeah, you my question first on vaccines. Do you want

789
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,759
Speaker 6: RFK Junior to revoke any vaccines?

790
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,720
Speaker 1: No? I want him to come back with the reporter

791
00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: as to what he thinks. We're going to find out

792
00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 1: a lot. We're doing two things. We're going to have

793
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:59,400
Speaker 1: tremendous cost savings will come out of this. That's a minimum.

794
00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: And we're all going to have and I think, very

795
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:06,359
Speaker 1: serious discussions about certain things, whether it's pesticides on you know,

796
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:11,200
Speaker 1: Europe doesn't use pesticides, and yet they have a better

797
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,239
Speaker 1: mortality rate than we do. They don't use pesticides. In fact,

798
00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,399
Speaker 1: they use it as an excuse not to take our

799
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:21,919
Speaker 1: farm product. We spend billions and billions of dollars on pesticides,

800
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:25,600
Speaker 1: and something bad's happening again. You take a look at

801
00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:29,799
Speaker 1: autism today versus twenty twenty five years ago. It's like

802
00:44:30,360 --> 00:44:33,120
Speaker 1: not even believable. So we're going to have reports. No,

803
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,319
Speaker 1: nothing's going to happen very quickly. I think you're going

804
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 1: to find that Bobby is much. He's a very rational guy.

805
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:41,680
Speaker 1: I found him to be very rational. Now, nothing, You're

806
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,640
Speaker 1: not going to lose the polio vaccine. That's not going

807
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 1: to happen. I saw what happened with the polio. I

808
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:53,319
Speaker 1: have friends were very much affected by that. I have

809
00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:57,040
Speaker 1: friends from many years ago and they have Obviously they're

810
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 1: still in such good shape because of it. You know,

811
00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 1: that was and many people died, and the moment they

812
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 1: took that vaccine it ended. Doctor Jonas Salk did a

813
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:12,160
Speaker 1: great job. So I don't anticipate that at all. But

814
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: we're going to look into finding why is the autism

815
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:16,879
Speaker 1: rate so much higher than it was twenty twenty five,

816
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:19,840
Speaker 1: thirty years ago. I mean, it's like it's one hundred

817
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,960
Speaker 1: times higher. There's something wrong, and we're going to try

818
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,839
Speaker 1: finding that. We're also going to find out why are

819
00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,360
Speaker 1: we paying more than other countries. And we were in

820
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:32,279
Speaker 1: the process of doing that through transparency and other things.

821
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,280
Speaker 1: We were doing a good job in that first term,

822
00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,520
Speaker 1: and we brought it down. We got the thirty five

823
00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,160
Speaker 1: dollar all of the different things we got, you know,

824
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 1: we were the ones that got all of that done.

825
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:45,600
Speaker 1: Every one of those things we got them done. I said,

826
00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 1: you know, I hope I win, because otherwise somebody is

827
00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:50,759
Speaker 1: going to take a lot of credit for what we did.

828
00:45:51,200 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 1: But now what happens is we're going to have a

829
00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:58,080
Speaker 1: big conversation on price. Why is it that Germany and

830
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:02,200
Speaker 1: you Can and other countries are paying so much more

831
00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:07,280
Speaker 1: for the same box of medicine made in the same plant.

832
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,560
Speaker 1: Why is it that we're paying many times? And I

833
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,480
Speaker 1: know the answer because our government didn't do what they

834
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: were supposed to do, and what I put in place

835
00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 1: was terminated unexpectedly by the Biden administration, and they shouldn't

836
00:46:20,120 --> 00:46:22,040
Speaker 1: have terminated it had a huge impacked.

837
00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:27,160
Speaker 6: Okay, great, you mentioned that some of the areas are

838
00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:32,120
Speaker 6: already decimated. Do you believe that Ukraine should see territory

839
00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:32,760
Speaker 6: to Russia.

840
00:46:34,000 --> 00:46:36,000
Speaker 1: Well, I'm going to let you know that after I

841
00:46:36,040 --> 00:46:40,040
Speaker 1: have my first meeting. But a lot of that territory

842
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,960
Speaker 1: when you look at what's happened to those I mean,

843
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:44,600
Speaker 1: there are cities that there's not a building standing.

844
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:46,960
Speaker 2: It's a demolition site.

845
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: There's not a building standing, so people can't go back

846
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:54,520
Speaker 1: to those cities. There's nothing there. It's just rubble. Just

847
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:59,080
Speaker 1: like when I knocked down a building in Manhattan, which

848
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:01,799
Speaker 1: is actually this this is worse. Actually because we do

849
00:47:01,840 --> 00:47:07,640
Speaker 1: it step by step. This thing has just got demolished.

850
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,680
Speaker 1: And by the way, in those buildings are many people.

851
00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,239
Speaker 1: Many people were in those buildings. You know, when they

852
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:14,520
Speaker 1: say the number in Ukraine is going to be a

853
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,239
Speaker 1: much higher number of death is going to be a

854
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 1: much higher number than you're hearing. You know, they have

855
00:47:19,800 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 1: big buildings. This is what I did very well. And

856
00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: these are very long buildings. They're fifteen to twenty stories high.

857
00:47:26,000 --> 00:47:28,719
Speaker 1: They're massive buildings. I was surprised at how big. And

858
00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 1: they're flattened like a pancake. One or two bombs hit

859
00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:37,720
Speaker 1: them and they just collapse. And they say nobody was hurt. Well,

860
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 1: nobody knows who was in those buildings. There were a

861
00:47:40,200 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 1: lot of people in those buildings. They're going to find

862
00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:47,200
Speaker 1: that when they start doing the removal. Many more people

863
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,120
Speaker 1: are being killed in the Ukraine war with Russia than

864
00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 1: is being reported, and then include soldiers. The soldiers are

865
00:47:54,160 --> 00:47:57,680
Speaker 1: being it's a carnage that we haven't seen since the

866
00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 1: Second World War. It's got to be stopped. I'm doing

867
00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,480
Speaker 1: I'm doing my best to stop. Yeah, please go ahead.

868
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:08,800
Speaker 7: You had a meeting with missus Abbe yesterday. But Japanese

869
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,880
Speaker 7: price missus Abia and I'm Japanese Prime Minister. Sheba is

870
00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,080
Speaker 7: hoping to have a meeting anytime soon.

871
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:18,360
Speaker 1: I will do that. In fact, I sent him a momento.

872
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:22,560
Speaker 1: I sent him a book, the Prime minister. But missus

873
00:48:22,600 --> 00:48:26,120
Speaker 1: Abi was very close with our first lady with Milania,

874
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 1: and she loved Milania's book and she called and wanted

875
00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:31,680
Speaker 1: to know if she could have I was very close

876
00:48:31,719 --> 00:48:37,120
Speaker 1: to the Prime Minister Shinzo Abi. He was great, he

877
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 1: was a great man, and his wife wanted to know

878
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:42,640
Speaker 1: if it would be possible to have dinner and it

879
00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:46,319
Speaker 1: was just out of respect to Shinzo. And yes, I'd

880
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 1: love to see the Prime minister and we will do that.

881
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,440
Speaker 1: I actually sent him a book and some other things

882
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 1: for him through through missus Abi. It could if if

883
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,759
Speaker 1: they'd like to do that, I would do that. Yeah, no,

884
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:03,880
Speaker 1: I have I have great I have great respect for

885
00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:07,200
Speaker 1: the you know, for the position, and uh, if he'd

886
00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,239
Speaker 1: like to do that, I'd be here.

887
00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 7: Ambassadors of Japan will be on. George Glass, is that

888
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 7: your final decision?

889
00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:19,200
Speaker 1: Highly respected man, that's right, highly respected. He's been an

890
00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 1: ambassador before did a fantastic job. We considered Japan very important.

891
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:29,359
Speaker 1: He's very highly respected. Okay, a couple of more, which

892
00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:33,200
Speaker 1: other four years have you invited to the inauguration? The

893
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:37,240
Speaker 1: world leaders are calling me and some I really would

894
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:41,040
Speaker 1: like to meet. No, I mean literally they're they're calling

895
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:45,200
Speaker 1: me and I'll be seeing some of them. I think

896
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:46,879
Speaker 1: it's rude not to I mean, it's hard to say

897
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,720
Speaker 1: I'm not going to see you. And uh, I've spoken

898
00:49:50,760 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 1: to way over one hundred where they called to congratulate

899
00:49:54,719 --> 00:49:57,279
Speaker 1: on the not only the election, but the size of

900
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 1: the election, the extent of the victory, and they were great.

901
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,719
Speaker 1: I mean I spoke to over one hundred countries. You

902
00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:08,720
Speaker 1: wouldn't believe how many countries there are. And I'm trying

903
00:50:08,960 --> 00:50:11,000
Speaker 1: but the best I can to get back to everybody.

904
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,080
Speaker 1: But there are a lot of countries and every one

905
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,560
Speaker 1: of them literally everyone called and it was very nice.

906
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:20,040
Speaker 1: So I'd see some if some felt it was an emergency.

907
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:23,319
Speaker 1: I've seen, as you know, I've seen President Zelenski. He

908
00:50:23,400 --> 00:50:25,800
Speaker 1: came to France while I was there for the CA

909
00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:30,720
Speaker 1: Cathedral opening. They actually had about seventy presidents and prime

910
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:38,879
Speaker 1: ministers and in one case, a king, and.

911
00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 2: We saw some great people.

912
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:42,760
Speaker 1: I also met with William and I was very impressed

913
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:45,240
Speaker 1: by William. I think William is terrific.

914
00:50:45,280 --> 00:50:46,720
Speaker 2: I was very impressed by William.

915
00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:53,359
Speaker 1: As you know, I met with him too preemptively. Did

916
00:50:53,400 --> 00:51:00,360
Speaker 1: you invite Zelensky to the inauguration? No, but you'd like

917
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:02,319
Speaker 1: to come. I'd like to have him. I mean I

918
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 1: didn't invite him.

919
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 6: Now, are you disappointed that China Sheet won't be at

920
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 6: the inauguration?

921
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:11,520
Speaker 1: I don't know that he won't be at the inauguration.

922
00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,640
Speaker 1: I mean I haven't really spoken to him about it.

923
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,319
Speaker 1: I don't know that. Actually I would say that if

924
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,759
Speaker 1: he'd like to come, I'd love to have him. But

925
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:26,640
Speaker 1: there's been nothing much discussed. I have had discussions with him, letters,

926
00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,080
Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera, at a very high level. You know,

927
00:51:30,120 --> 00:51:30,880
Speaker 1: we had a very good.

928
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 2: Relationship until COVID.

929
00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:37,240
Speaker 1: COVID didn't end the relationship, but it was a bridge

930
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:41,919
Speaker 1: too far from me. But if he'd like to come,

931
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:42,840
Speaker 1: i'd certainly be.

932
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:44,000
Speaker 2: He hasn't.

933
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 1: Just so you understand, he hasn't said one way or

934
00:51:45,840 --> 00:51:48,479
Speaker 1: the other. Because a lot of people say he won't come,

935
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,800
Speaker 1: he will come. People think he will come. He won't come.

936
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:55,960
Speaker 1: It's something we barely discussed, just about didn't discuss. But

937
00:51:56,040 --> 00:52:02,000
Speaker 1: I have had, especially through letters, some very good conversations

938
00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:06,200
Speaker 1: with him. You know, because China and the United States

939
00:52:06,280 --> 00:52:10,360
Speaker 1: can together solve all of the problems of the world

940
00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 1: if you think about it. So it's very important. And

941
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 1: you know, he was a friend of mine. I mean,

942
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 1: he was here for a long time, right in that spot,

943
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,720
Speaker 1: except sitting in a very comfortable chair. He wasn't standing

944
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:25,920
Speaker 1: like you are. But we we spent hours and hours talking.

945
00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:31,360
Speaker 1: And you know, he's an amazing guy. The press, the

946
00:52:31,440 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 1: press hates when I say that, but he's an amazing person.

947
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 1: Go ahead, what I think it's terrible? Can you give

948
00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:44,319
Speaker 1: us your thoughts about that? And what do you mean?

949
00:52:44,480 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 2: Well, I think it's terrible.

950
00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:49,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I think it's a terrible thing. I think

951
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 1: it's really terrible that some people seem to admire him

952
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 1: like him. Uh. And I was happy to see that

953
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,239
Speaker 1: it wasn't specific to this gentleman that we skilled. It's

954
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:05,480
Speaker 1: just an overall sickness as opposed to a specific sickness.

955
00:53:06,440 --> 00:53:09,120
Speaker 1: That was a terrible thing. It was cold blooded, just

956
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:13,120
Speaker 1: a cold blooded horrible killing and how people can like

957
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:14,919
Speaker 1: this guy is.

958
00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:17,120
Speaker 2: That's a sickness.

959
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:20,439
Speaker 1: Actually, that's really very bad, especially the way it was done.

960
00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:21,799
Speaker 2: It was so bad right in.

961
00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 1: The back and very bad, very.

962
00:53:26,360 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 2: Thing like that.

963
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:30,439
Speaker 1: You just you can't believe that some people and maybe

964
00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 1: it's fake news.

965
00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's hard to believe.

966
00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:35,760
Speaker 1: That that can even be thought of, But it seems

967
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:39,360
Speaker 1: that there's a certain appetite for him. I don't get it.

968
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:43,879
Speaker 5: Yeah, please, I want to expand on the defamation lawsuits.

969
00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:48,520
Speaker 5: Could you see move that to other people with individual platforms,

970
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:51,760
Speaker 5: social media influencers, people that were horse fabors.

971
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:55,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh I do, I do. I think

972
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:58,880
Speaker 1: you have to do it because they're very just honest.

973
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 1: We need a great media, We need a fair media.

974
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:06,400
Speaker 1: We need it's very important. And we need borders. We

975
00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 1: need walls, but we need borders, and we need fair elections.

976
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,440
Speaker 1: You look at California, millions and millions of ballots were

977
00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:17,040
Speaker 1: sent out. They're still counting the vote in California with

978
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:20,240
Speaker 1: the machines are counting the vote. If you had paper ballots,

979
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:21,840
Speaker 1: the votes would have been counted four.

980
00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 2: Weeks ago, three weeks ago. Now, you need fair elections.

981
00:54:25,560 --> 00:54:28,480
Speaker 1: You need borders, and you need a fair press, and

982
00:54:28,840 --> 00:54:31,279
Speaker 1: the press is no I see others. I have a

983
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:35,280
Speaker 1: few others that I'm doing. I'm going to as an example,

984
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,640
Speaker 1: we're bringing I'm doing this not because I want to.

985
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:40,160
Speaker 1: I'm doing this because I feel I have an obligation to.

986
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:44,400
Speaker 1: I'm going to be bringing one against the people in Iowa.

987
00:54:44,600 --> 00:54:48,239
Speaker 1: Their newspaper which had a very very good pulster who

988
00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:51,160
Speaker 1: got me right all the time. And then just before

989
00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:53,080
Speaker 1: the election she said I was going to lose by

990
00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,560
Speaker 1: three or four points. That it became the biggest story

991
00:54:55,640 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 1: all over the world because I was going to win

992
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,200
Speaker 1: Iowa by twenty points. The farmers loved me, and I

993
00:55:02,239 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 1: loved the farmers, and it was interesting the way she

994
00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,840
Speaker 1: did it. She brought it down two weeks before she

995
00:55:07,880 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 1: said I was gonna only win by four. That was

996
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,439
Speaker 1: a big story. But that was good because she brought

997
00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,720
Speaker 1: it down from like twenty two points to four or whatever.

998
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 1: The number was way up, way up, easy when we

999
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:21,960
Speaker 1: never even thought to go there. I respect him, I

1000
00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,880
Speaker 1: love him, and they understand there's no reason to go

1001
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 1: there because she brought it from way up walk away,

1002
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,719
Speaker 1: which it was, and it turned out to be in

1003
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,960
Speaker 1: the election too, by the way, it was a win

1004
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:33,360
Speaker 1: by many, many points.

1005
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 2: And then she brought it down very smartly to four.

1006
00:55:36,920 --> 00:55:40,240
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks before, and everyone said, wow, that's amazing,

1007
00:55:40,280 --> 00:55:42,880
Speaker 1: he's only up by four points. Then she brought it

1008
00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,040
Speaker 1: down to where I was down by three or four

1009
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:49,160
Speaker 1: whatever number she used, and that was the Des Moines

1010
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:54,640
Speaker 1: Register and it was their parent and in my opinion,

1011
00:55:54,680 --> 00:55:57,520
Speaker 1: it was fraud and it was election interference. You know,

1012
00:55:57,600 --> 00:55:59,919
Speaker 1: she's gotten me right always. She's a very good pul

1013
00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:02,239
Speaker 1: so she knows what she was doing. And she then

1014
00:56:02,320 --> 00:56:06,280
Speaker 1: quit before and will probably be filing a major lawsuit

1015
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:09,800
Speaker 1: against them today or tomorrow. We're filing one on sixty minutes,

1016
00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:13,000
Speaker 1: you know about that where they took Kamala's answer, which

1017
00:56:13,080 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 1: was a crazy answer, a horrible answer, and they took

1018
00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:20,359
Speaker 1: the whole answer out and they replaced it with something else,

1019
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 1: she said later on in the interview, which wasn't a

1020
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 1: great answer, but it wasn't like the first one. The

1021
00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:30,080
Speaker 1: first was grossly incompetent. It was weird, and that was

1022
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,279
Speaker 1: fraud and election interference by their news magazine, a big

1023
00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: part of CBS News. So as you know we're involved

1024
00:56:37,640 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 1: in that. We're involved in one which has been going

1025
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:44,280
Speaker 1: on for a while, and very successfully against Bob Woodward,

1026
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 1: where he didn't quote me properly from the tapes, and

1027
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:52,600
Speaker 1: then on top of everything else, he sold the tapes,

1028
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,080
Speaker 1: which he wasn't allowed to do. He could only use

1029
00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:58,440
Speaker 1: him for reporting purposes, not for sale purposes. And he

1030
00:56:58,520 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 1: admits that.

1031
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 2: And I think we'll be successful on that one.

1032
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 1: And we have one very interestingly on Pulitzer, because reporters

1033
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,440
Speaker 1: at the New York Times Washington Post got pullet Serprizes

1034
00:57:12,520 --> 00:57:17,680
Speaker 1: for their wonderful, accurate and highly professional reporting on the

1035
00:57:17,720 --> 00:57:20,600
Speaker 1: Russia Russia Russia hoax. Well it turned out to be

1036
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:25,640
Speaker 1: a hoax, and they were exactly wrong. People, like many people,

1037
00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,960
Speaker 1: John Solomon, Sean Hannity's not for Pulitzer, but Sean Hannity

1038
00:57:30,040 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 1: got it right. Many people got it right. Tucker got

1039
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 1: it right, Jesse got it right, Laura got it right,

1040
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:38,439
Speaker 1: Jane got it right. A lot of people got it right.

1041
00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:41,560
Speaker 1: They didn't get anything. They gave it to reporters. They

1042
00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:44,120
Speaker 1: got it absolutely wrong. And now everybody admits it was

1043
00:57:44,160 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 1: a hoax, and I want them to get back take

1044
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 1: back the Politicer prizes and pay big damages. And I

1045
00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:52,800
Speaker 1: think we're doing very well on that one. They have

1046
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:56,400
Speaker 1: no excuse for it. They gave a Pulitzer prize to writers.

1047
00:57:56,440 --> 00:58:00,400
Speaker 1: They got Russia Russia Russia wrong, and so I think

1048
00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,440
Speaker 1: we're doing well, and I feel I have to do this.

1049
00:58:02,760 --> 00:58:05,080
Speaker 1: I shouldn't really be the one to do it. It

1050
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:09,560
Speaker 1: should have been Justice Department or somebody else, but I

1051
00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:11,880
Speaker 1: have to do it. It costs a lot of money to

1052
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 1: do it. But we have to straighten out the press.

1053
00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:21,640
Speaker 1: Our press is very corrupt, almost as corrupt as our elections.

1054
00:58:21,880 --> 00:58:27,120
Speaker 1: Exactly for January sixth defendants. You have said in the

1055
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:28,240
Speaker 1: first few minutes of your.

1056
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:31,440
Speaker 6: Administration you want to issue pardons for January sixth defendents.

1057
00:58:31,600 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 6: Does that include will that be a blanket pardon?

1058
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:36,080
Speaker 2: Does that Well, you'll find out, but it's going to

1059
00:58:36,120 --> 00:58:36,640
Speaker 2: go quickly.

1060
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. Sure.

1061
00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:43,960
Speaker 5: With in terms of your vast implication plans, really plunary

1062
00:58:43,960 --> 00:58:47,280
Speaker 5: discussions with countries like Venezuala, from where the trendy a

1063
00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:49,360
Speaker 5: robick gang is now popping.

1064
00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 1: They'll take them back.

1065
00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:53,000
Speaker 2: They're all taking them back, yep.

1066
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:58,360
Speaker 1: And if they don't, they'll be met very harshly economically okay,

1067
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:02,520
Speaker 1: they'll all take them back. You know, Venezuela and other

1068
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:06,760
Speaker 1: countries we're not behaving very well with us during my administration,

1069
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,840
Speaker 1: and within twenty four hours they were behaving very well.

1070
00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:12,160
Speaker 1: They'll all take them back. Jeff.

1071
00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:14,000
Speaker 2: Nice to see you, Jeff.

1072
00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:16,640
Speaker 1: This is like the old days, right, you've looked Actually

1073
00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 1: it looked much better now than you did four years ago.

1074
00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 1: What are you doing?

1075
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:20,680
Speaker 2: What's he doing?

1076
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:22,840
Speaker 1: All right? Go ahead, thank you sir.

1077
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:25,560
Speaker 6: The first day you just mentioned that you're in office.

1078
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:27,760
Speaker 1: I imagine you've got some executive orders that you have

1079
00:59:27,760 --> 00:59:29,360
Speaker 1: a lot of go through. Can you tell us what

1080
00:59:29,520 --> 00:59:32,440
Speaker 1: you will have a lot? Well, I'll bet you could tell.

1081
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:35,440
Speaker 1: You could say as well as I could. We will

1082
00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,200
Speaker 1: will have many executive orders and other things that we'll

1083
00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: be signing. On the first day, you said that your

1084
00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:47,520
Speaker 1: conversation with Prime mister net Yahoo was kind of a

1085
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 1: review did We just had a very good conversation and

1086
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:58,160
Speaker 1: you know, the real conversations will start on the twentieth,

1087
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 1: but we had a really good conversation. And I think

1088
01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,160
Speaker 1: we're going to be in a good place in the

1089
01:00:03,160 --> 01:00:05,880
Speaker 1: Middle East. I think the Middle East will be in

1090
01:00:05,920 --> 01:00:08,840
Speaker 1: a good place. I think actually more difficult is going

1091
01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,840
Speaker 1: to be the Russia Ukraine situation. I see that as

1092
01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:15,520
Speaker 1: more difficult. I don't think they should have allowed missiles

1093
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:18,560
Speaker 1: to be shot two hundred miles into Russia. I think

1094
01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:21,920
Speaker 1: that was a bad thing and that brought the Koreans

1095
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:25,880
Speaker 1: in North Korea, another man I get along with very well.

1096
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:26,919
Speaker 2: I'm the only one that does.

1097
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,840
Speaker 1: But that did a lot of bad things. I don't

1098
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:34,480
Speaker 1: think that should have been allowed, not when there's a possibility,

1099
01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:37,080
Speaker 1: and certainly not just weeks before I take over. Why

1100
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,360
Speaker 1: would they do that without asking me what I thought?

1101
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,520
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have had them do that. I think it

1102
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 1: was a big mistake they met.

1103
01:00:45,080 --> 01:00:45,840
Speaker 3: It's a booth.

1104
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,320
Speaker 1: I might, yeah, I thought it was a very stupid

1105
01:00:48,320 --> 01:00:48,800
Speaker 1: thing to do.

1106
01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,160
Speaker 6: When you say that there will be hell to pay

1107
01:00:53,200 --> 01:00:55,960
Speaker 6: if the hostages are not released before January twentieth, what

1108
01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:56,560
Speaker 6: does that mean.

1109
01:00:56,640 --> 01:00:58,560
Speaker 1: Well, they're going to have to determine what that means.

1110
01:00:59,000 --> 01:01:03,680
Speaker 1: But it means it won't be pleasant. It's it's not

1111
01:01:03,760 --> 01:01:04,640
Speaker 1: going to be pleasant.

1112
01:01:04,680 --> 01:01:04,760
Speaker 5: Ye.

1113
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:08,520
Speaker 6: I wasting with Timp Cooke and did you talk about

1114
01:01:08,600 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 6: terror in that ing?

1115
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 2: Communing with it apples Tim Cook.

1116
01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:16,840
Speaker 1: I did have a dinner with Tim Cook I had

1117
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:19,640
Speaker 1: dinner with sort of almost all of them, and the

1118
01:01:19,680 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 1: rest are coming. And this is one of the big

1119
01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:25,400
Speaker 1: differences I think between we were talking about it before.

1120
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 1: One of the big differences between the first term and

1121
01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:33,160
Speaker 1: the first term. Everybody was fighting me this term. Everybody

1122
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:35,840
Speaker 1: wants to be my friend. I don't know my personality

1123
01:01:36,040 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 1: changed or something, but I had, as you know, I

1124
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:43,920
Speaker 1: had Sundar from Google, but I also had Serge. Nobody

1125
01:01:43,960 --> 01:01:48,919
Speaker 1: reported that Serge is the owner, the primary owner, along

1126
01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:53,600
Speaker 1: with his friend, as you know, and Serge was here also.

1127
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,200
Speaker 1: I can't believe you didn't pick that one up. Nobody

1128
01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,520
Speaker 1: picked that up. But I will tall you no, there's

1129
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:02,200
Speaker 1: a big difference. The big difference is that the first time,

1130
01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:06,840
Speaker 1: everybody was fighting me on all fronts, and we had

1131
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,920
Speaker 1: a great administration. We got the biggest tax cuts in history,

1132
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,560
Speaker 1: rebuilt the military. Too much of it was given away

1133
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:17,720
Speaker 1: to Afghanistan, stupidly given away, horribly given away. I think

1134
01:02:17,720 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 1: that's one of the reasons that Putin went in to

1135
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,280
Speaker 1: Ukraine when he saw the stupidity of million these guys,

1136
01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:27,800
Speaker 1: stupid people, very stupid people. If he didn't if they

1137
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:29,600
Speaker 1: didn't do such a big you know, we were pulling

1138
01:02:29,600 --> 01:02:31,440
Speaker 1: out of Afghanistan. But I would have pulled out with

1139
01:02:31,520 --> 01:02:35,000
Speaker 1: dignity and strength. They wouldn't be having parades, I guarantee

1140
01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:37,360
Speaker 1: you showing our equipment that they left beyond, because we

1141
01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,040
Speaker 1: weren't going to leave any equipment beyond not ten cents.

1142
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:42,760
Speaker 1: We were going to take every screw in every bolt.

1143
01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:48,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, the biggest difference is that people want to

1144
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,439
Speaker 1: get along with me this time. Well they've gone through

1145
01:02:51,440 --> 01:02:53,320
Speaker 1: four years and you know, it wasn't easy for me,

1146
01:02:53,400 --> 01:02:56,040
Speaker 1: but it wasn't easy for them either, and that's a

1147
01:02:56,040 --> 01:02:58,320
Speaker 1: great thing though. Getting along is a great thing. So

1148
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,280
Speaker 1: Tim Cook was here. I think he's done an incredible

1149
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:05,240
Speaker 1: job at Apple, and he talked about the future of Apple.

1150
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:09,120
Speaker 1: It's going to be a bright future. But we have

1151
01:03:09,360 --> 01:03:12,920
Speaker 1: many others also and not in that business. And we

1152
01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:16,360
Speaker 1: do have Jeff Bezos Amazon coming in some.

1153
01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:18,240
Speaker 2: Time during the week. Look forward to that.

1154
01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:20,800
Speaker 1: We have a lot of great executives coming in, the

1155
01:03:20,840 --> 01:03:25,160
Speaker 1: top executives, the top bankers, they're all calling and honestly,

1156
01:03:25,160 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 1: in the first time, I don't.

1157
01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 2: Know what it was.

1158
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:30,040
Speaker 1: It's like a complete opposite in the first one, and

1159
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:34,160
Speaker 1: the press has covered that fairly. Actually, for change. The

1160
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:39,640
Speaker 1: first one, they were very hostile, and maybe it was

1161
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,240
Speaker 1: my fault, but I don't really think so. They were

1162
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:44,800
Speaker 1: just very right from the beginning, and this one is

1163
01:03:44,960 --> 01:03:46,160
Speaker 1: much less hostile.

1164
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,040
Speaker 2: It's really the opposite of hostile.

1165
01:03:51,120 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 1: That you had some him I believe in Paulman eighteen

1166
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:57,600
Speaker 1: years ago with the students at Duke accused of raping across.

1167
01:03:57,920 --> 01:03:59,720
Speaker 1: Now we have this, Well, I thought it was I

1168
01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:03,560
Speaker 1: thought there was a hoax when it happened, the Duke situation.

1169
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:09,480
Speaker 1: I didn't believe the woman, as you know, and you destroyed.

1170
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:13,720
Speaker 1: They destroyed the lives of these kids. They destroyed and

1171
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,120
Speaker 1: I don't care what they got. Their lives have been destroyed.

1172
01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 1: Their lives have been shortened by what took place. And

1173
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:25,920
Speaker 1: now the woman admitted that it never happened. That is horrible.

1174
01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 1: And as you know, I took a lot of heat

1175
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 1: when I said that this is this had not happened.

1176
01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:36,880
Speaker 1: And those kids were beautiful kids with beautiful families, and

1177
01:04:36,920 --> 01:04:39,680
Speaker 1: they were in some cases will never be the same.

1178
01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:40,880
Speaker 2: They will never be the same.

1179
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:45,280
Speaker 1: On postal service.

1180
01:04:45,680 --> 01:04:48,560
Speaker 5: You mentioned Bezos a second go, and I've always thought Bezos.

1181
01:04:48,200 --> 01:04:50,000
Speaker 1: Would be a key person to go in there. And

1182
01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:51,000
Speaker 1: really streamline the.

1183
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 5: Logistics of the post office, but they lose billions.

1184
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,640
Speaker 1: Well, there is talk about the postal service being taken private.

1185
01:04:57,680 --> 01:05:01,160
Speaker 1: You do know that, not that we're idea I've ever heard.

1186
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:03,880
Speaker 1: It really is, and you know it's a lot different

1187
01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:09,160
Speaker 1: today with between Amazon and ups and FedEx and all

1188
01:05:09,200 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 1: the things that you didn't have. But there is talk

1189
01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 1: about that. It's an idea that a lot of people

1190
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: have liked for a long time. We're looking at it.

1191
01:05:16,720 --> 01:05:18,360
Speaker 1: I think we're looking at that along with a lot

1192
01:05:18,400 --> 01:05:22,080
Speaker 1: of any questions for Howard. By the way, commerce, you

1193
01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:22,920
Speaker 1: want to say a couple.

1194
01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:27,800
Speaker 5: Of weeks, do you see another trade deal with China?

1195
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 1: I think the president, Oh, it's easy for me. You're

1196
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:37,040
Speaker 1: sitting next to me, so it's okay. Now. The President

1197
01:05:37,040 --> 01:05:42,560
Speaker 1: has very clear agenda for tars, and I think reciprocity

1198
01:05:43,000 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 1: is something that is going to be a key topic

1199
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:48,200
Speaker 1: for us. How you treat us is how you should

1200
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:52,959
Speaker 1: expect to be treated. He said it so well, reciprocal.

1201
01:05:53,760 --> 01:05:56,840
Speaker 1: If they tax us, we text them the same amount

1202
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 1: they tax us forgetting it. Just for a second, the

1203
01:06:00,200 --> 01:06:04,520
Speaker 1: word to they tax us, we tax them, and they

1204
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:08,040
Speaker 1: tax us almost in all cases, they're taxing us and

1205
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:13,040
Speaker 1: we haven't been taxing yet. Is there an inner way?

1206
01:06:15,560 --> 01:06:18,600
Speaker 1: Let's just say this. We're gonna make great deals, and

1207
01:06:18,640 --> 01:06:21,840
Speaker 1: we have all the cards and until I came along,

1208
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:25,200
Speaker 1: don't forget. And Howard was going over the numbers with

1209
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:29,640
Speaker 1: me last night. We took in six hundred billion dollars

1210
01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:34,040
Speaker 1: and more in taxes and tariffs from China. No other

1211
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:37,760
Speaker 1: president took in ten cents, not ten cents, not ten cents.

1212
01:06:38,720 --> 01:06:41,840
Speaker 1: And now we're gonna be doing things. We're gonna be

1213
01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:45,840
Speaker 1: treating people very fairly. But the word reciprocal is important

1214
01:06:45,920 --> 01:06:48,560
Speaker 1: because if somebody charges us India, we don't have to

1215
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 1: talk about own. If India charges is one hundred percent,

1216
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:53,800
Speaker 1: then we charge them nothing for the same. You know,

1217
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:56,440
Speaker 1: they send in a bicycle and we send them a bicycle.

1218
01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,600
Speaker 1: They charge us one hundred and two hundred. India charges

1219
01:06:59,640 --> 01:07:02,480
Speaker 1: a lot, Brazil charges a lot. If they want to

1220
01:07:02,560 --> 01:07:04,280
Speaker 1: charge us, that's fine, but we're going to charge them

1221
01:07:04,320 --> 01:07:07,320
Speaker 1: the same thing. That's a big state. And you know what,

1222
01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:12,560
Speaker 1: the senators, some of them aren't necessarily business people. When

1223
01:07:12,600 --> 01:07:15,640
Speaker 1: I give that to them, they say that sounds fair

1224
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:15,880
Speaker 1: to me.

1225
01:07:16,880 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 6: Are you considered that tariffs might hurt the stock market

1226
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,800
Speaker 6: rise that you'd have seen the economy.

1227
01:07:21,360 --> 01:07:25,200
Speaker 1: More broadly, to make our country rich, Tariffs will make

1228
01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:30,439
Speaker 1: our country rich, properly used, going to make no well,

1229
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:33,600
Speaker 1: I didn't have any inflation, and I had massive tariffs,

1230
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:35,880
Speaker 1: so a lot of things. We put tariffs on steel.

1231
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:39,000
Speaker 1: If I didn't put tariffs on steel, fifty percent and more,

1232
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,160
Speaker 1: they were dumping steel in China and others. I put

1233
01:07:43,200 --> 01:07:45,560
Speaker 1: tariffs on and it stopped, and we took a fortune,

1234
01:07:45,560 --> 01:07:49,560
Speaker 1: and we made a fortune on it. Tariffs properly used,

1235
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:54,680
Speaker 1: which we will do, and being reciprocal with other nations.

1236
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:57,800
Speaker 1: But it'll make our country rich. Our country right now

1237
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:01,960
Speaker 1: loses to everybody. Nobody do we have a surplus with

1238
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:04,720
Speaker 1: There are a couple of countries and they're embarrassed by it,

1239
01:08:05,200 --> 01:08:09,480
Speaker 1: but almost nobody. And tariffs will make I always said

1240
01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 1: to me, tariff's the most beautiful word in the dictionary.

1241
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:14,280
Speaker 1: It'll make our country rich. You go back and look

1242
01:08:14,320 --> 01:08:17,599
Speaker 1: at the eighteen nineties, eighteen eighties, McKinley, and you take

1243
01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:19,920
Speaker 1: a look at tariff's That was when we were at

1244
01:08:19,960 --> 01:08:21,879
Speaker 1: our proportionately the richest.

1245
01:08:22,720 --> 01:08:30,000
Speaker 5: The president, the president what should as less head anything

1246
01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:31,160
Speaker 5: or evolved.

1247
01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:34,840
Speaker 1: He should be prepared to make a deal. That's all

1248
01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,240
Speaker 1: got to be a deal. Got to be a deal.

1249
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,880
Speaker 1: Too many people being killed, that is a war. That's

1250
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:44,240
Speaker 1: too many people. Got to make a deal. And Putin

1251
01:08:44,280 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 1: has to make a deal to it. By the way,

1252
01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:48,439
Speaker 1: Putin has to make a deal. And Putin would have

1253
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:50,960
Speaker 1: never gone in if I was president. If I was president,

1254
01:08:51,160 --> 01:08:54,360
Speaker 1: we wouldn't have had inflation, Our oil prices would have

1255
01:08:54,360 --> 01:08:57,200
Speaker 1: been lower. I had a good relationship with Putin. He

1256
01:08:57,200 --> 01:09:00,400
Speaker 1: would have despite the Russia hoax, which made it more difficult.

1257
01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:07,360
Speaker 1: If we had that election, if it were an honorable election,

1258
01:09:08,080 --> 01:09:09,920
Speaker 1: we wouldn't have had any of the problems that we're

1259
01:09:09,920 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 1: talking about right now. Would have never gone in. You

1260
01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:18,160
Speaker 1: said that you have that deal before you take office.

1261
01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 1: You still think you can make that deal, a model

1262
01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:28,280
Speaker 1: trot you give all thought. Well, I hadn't thought of it.

1263
01:09:29,600 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 1: I think we have to get on with our lives.

1264
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:35,280
Speaker 1: We'll have to see what happens. But right now, Syria

1265
01:09:35,360 --> 01:09:38,200
Speaker 1: has a lot of you know, there's a lot of indefinites.

1266
01:09:38,240 --> 01:09:40,559
Speaker 1: Nobody knows what's going to happen with Syria. But I

1267
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,320
Speaker 1: think Turkey is going to hold the key to Syria. Actually,

1268
01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,560
Speaker 1: I don't think you've heard that from anybody else, but

1269
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:47,800
Speaker 1: I've been pretty good at predicting. I want to thank
