If you 3 00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: want to be a part of our program, don't forget 4 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,479 Speaker 1: a full hour. President Trump tonight on Hannity on Fox News. 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,840 Speaker 1: We spend a lot of time with the former president. Yesterday. 6 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: Also yesterday, the New York Attorney General Latitia James is 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: claiming that Donald Trump the Trump organization use false, misleading 8 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:30,159 Speaker 1: statements repeatedly and persistently to use and induce banks to 9 00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: lend money to the Trump organization on favorable terms in 10 00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: other words, and she goes into this whole thing about 11 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: how they would put out fraud and misrepresentation of their 12 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 1: annual statements of the financial condition. So usually when you 13 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: get a loan, people are looking for things called collateral. 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: In other words, if in fact you stop paying back 15 00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: your loan, we have the right to take this property, 16 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: this property, this piece that you own, that piece that 17 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: you own, in other words, things that you outright or 18 00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 1: right to your bank account, whatever it happens to be. 19 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: And what she's missing here is whoever is lending that 20 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: kind of money to any organization. It doesn't matter that 21 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: they would all have a financial fiduciary responsibility to do 22 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: their own valuations. In other words, I'm sure many of 23 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:31,160 Speaker 1: you have at some point purchased a home. You hire 24 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,080 Speaker 1: somebody that makes an assessment on the value of what 25 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: your home and what your property happens to be. It's 26 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: a it's a cottage industry. And every single financial deal 27 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,440 Speaker 1: that I've been a part of that involves, you know, okay, 28 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 1: a mortgage, they check out your finances in great detail. 29 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: That's on them before they lend the money. They're on 30 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: the hook for it. They've got to make good decisions. 31 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: They owe it to the shareholders, they owe it to 32 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: the people that put the money in the bank that 33 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 1: they're not going to misappropriate that money because of a quote, 34 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: friendship or whatever. It happens to me, I mean, it's 35 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: kind of crazy. And then the other side of this 36 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: is we have an Attorney General in New York and 37 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: I don't really know Latitia James, but she campaigned heavily 38 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: on the idea that she was going to go after 39 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: one man, one family, and one organization, and she said 40 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: it repeatedly, and yesterday she fulfilled what is her campaign promise, 41 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: I will never be afraid to challenge this illegitimate president 42 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: when our fundamental rights are at state. I believe that 43 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: the president of these United States can be indicted for 44 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: criminals senses that man in the White House who can't 45 00:02:56,760 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: go a day without threatening our fun mental rights. But yes, 46 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 1: we need to focus on Donald Trump and his abuses. 47 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: We need to follow his money, We need to find 48 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: out where he's laundered money, We need to find out 49 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: whether or not he's engaged in conspiracy. Okay, the only 50 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: problem is it may play well in liberal New York 51 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: and maybe even before a jury in New York. I 52 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: don't know. I wouldn't trust a jury in New York 53 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:25,720 Speaker 1: or the District of Columbia myself if you're a conservative. However, 54 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: when you get to the reality of what this is 55 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: all about, is whenever you borrow money, the lending institution 56 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: has their own rules that govern the allocation of money 57 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 1: lent to people, and they've got the responsibility. It's really 58 00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: on them. Anyway. Here to weigh in on the legal 59 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: aspects of all this, Greg Jarrett, host of his own 60 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,040 Speaker 1: podcast The Brief, and of course, number one New York 61 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 1: Times bestselling author David showed us with US civil liberties attorney, 62 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 1: former counsel for President Trump. Welcome both of you to 63 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 1: the program. Greg I Read York column, New York Age. 64 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: Lawsuit against Trump should be dismissed as politically punitive and 65 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: an unethical abuse of power. I mean, if you campaign 66 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: on going after one person the way that she did, 67 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,919 Speaker 1: how does she get to be involved in anything involving Trump. 68 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:28,280 Speaker 1: Wouldn't you have the need, the ethical need to recuse yourself. Oh? Absolutely, 69 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:33,919 Speaker 1: It's an automatic disqualification, and Trump's legal defense should move 70 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: to have her disqualified and in fact have the case dismissed. 71 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 1: When she was running for office, she vowed to exploit 72 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 1: the immense power of her office if she won to 73 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 1: investigate him prosecute Donald Trump. She was not privy to 74 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: any evidence or documents showing that he had violated any laws, 75 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: but that didn't stop her from ac using Trump of 76 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: defrauding Americans, money laundering, obstruction of justice, conspiring with Russia. 77 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: She publicly denounced him as an illegitimate president. She constantly 78 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 1: repeated her campaign pledge to take him down. Now that's 79 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: a direct violation the code of conduct that governs prosecutors 80 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 1: in the York Their duty bound to be fair and impartial, 81 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: and the decisions of a prosecutor the attorney general cannot 82 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: be driven by political bias. Even the appearance of a 83 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: conflict is grounds for disqualification, And so her own words 84 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: will come back to haunt her. They're incriminating in the 85 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:48,039 Speaker 1: basis war, not just disqualifying her, but dismissing the case. 86 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: David Shone, is it up to the lending institution, bank, 87 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: financial institution, whatever. Isn't it their responsibility to do their 88 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: own vetting and value and not take the word of 89 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: somebody that wants to borrow large sums of money. Absolutely, 90 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,000 Speaker 1: you said it absolutely correctly and in legal terms. I 91 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: think a factor and an element here that it goes 92 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: to is materiality. First of all, these appraisals, they're all 93 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: across the board. Even a graphic they showed in this 94 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: matter showed a valuation of one place from between sixteen 95 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 1: point five million to one hundred million dollars. They vary 96 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: across the board. All of these lending institutions. Now, look, 97 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 1: they have their own interests. They want to jack up 98 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,719 Speaker 1: transaction fees and all of that. But that's not President 99 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: Trump's problem or fall and Greg is right on with 100 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: this complaint about miss James. She has absolutely no business 101 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 1: being a prosecutor an attorney general of any state and 102 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: our system. It demeans the entire justice system. You know, 103 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo, of all people, has written a forty eight 104 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: page ethical complaint against her based on her conduct in 105 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,039 Speaker 1: his case and again public comments and that sort of thing. 106 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: She's a politician who happens to be a lawyer and 107 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: became attorney general's it undermines the integrity of the system. 108 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 1: And by bringing these charges, now the timing is not coincidental, 109 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: it's election directed, and that sort of thing. She undermines 110 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: if there were any merit to the charges, she undermines 111 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: all of that. Also by her statements and by the 112 00:07:16,720 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: timing of the matter, she loses at least half the 113 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: country and belief in any merit to any of these allegations. 114 00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 1: And they are just allegations, by the way, you know, Greg, 115 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: I look at this, and anybody listening right now that 116 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: has ever purchased a home, you get before you can 117 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: get a loan, you will usually hire an appraiser and 118 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: they'll make their own valuation what they think the property 119 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: is worth. Anyone that's ever looked on Zillo, for example, 120 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: they do valuations what they think of property is worth 121 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: or the range of what they think the property is worth. 122 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:55,120 Speaker 1: In all of this is standard operating procedure on little, tiny, 123 00:07:55,280 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: small real estate transactions, not even big buildings and you 124 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: know skyscrapers like you have in New York City. Yeah, 125 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 1: you know, you don't get the loan from the bank 126 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: when their appraiser comes in and says the fair market 127 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: value and the purchase price is well below or well 128 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: above the appraised values. So look, thanks conduct their own 129 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 1: due diligence. They use separate appraisers, the countants lawyers to 130 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: approve the loan. They go into with a loan of 131 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: this size, it's tens of millions of dollars for these 132 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:39,199 Speaker 1: various loans. And they go through Trump's financial statement and 133 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: with a fine tooth come to find any holes or 134 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,960 Speaker 1: fraud in it. And you know, in a case like this, 135 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: the plaintiff, the attorneys general, has to prove that there's 136 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 1: a victim, it was harmed in some economic or non 137 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: economic manner. There's no victim here, just the office of 138 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: the banks who loaned Trump money not only made money, 139 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: pardon me, they've made money. Oh, Yeah, they profited handsomely 140 00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: from the transactions. They were repaid with substantial interest. They 141 00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 1: never sued Trump. Why because they were never harmed and 142 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: you have to prove harm. In Letitia Game James's case, 143 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: civil fraud is not a victimless offense. All right, quick break, 144 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 1: We'll come back more on the issue of Latisia James 145 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: and her civil suit against Trump and his family with 146 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,559 Speaker 1: attorneys David Shoon and Greg Jarrett.

We continue with 175 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: attorneys Greg Jarrett and David Schoner with US regarding Latitia 176 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: James and the civil suit against Donald Trump and his family. 177 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: So what happens with this and this is a problem 178 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: that David shone that we have in our justice system, 179 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:41,079 Speaker 1: and that is called jurisdiction. For example, I wouldn't want 180 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 1: any Republican or conservative. I don't think they can get 181 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: a fair trial in the District of Columbia, for example. 182 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: I don't think any conservative or anyone with the last 183 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,240 Speaker 1: name Trump is gonna likely get a free and objective 184 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: and fair jury when it comes to any New York 185 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: City courtroom. Knowing Democrats out number registered Republicans nine to 186 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: one in New York City, and that's your one hundred 187 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: percent right, and it's not coincidential. That's exactly why someone 188 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: who is looking to make her name brings it in 189 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 1: New York like this. Listen, you know what the relief 190 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 1: that she's seeking is telling. She wants it to be 191 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: on the map. So she wants the court now to 192 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 1: bar Trump and all of the others from ever doing 193 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: business in the state of New York again. She's trying 194 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: to mirror what Congress tried to do with the impeachment, 195 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 1: bar him from ever holding office again, and their constant 196 00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: efforts along those lines. Can you imagine how many jobs 197 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: and how much revenue the Trump organization and all of 198 00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 1: these other people associate with it have given to the 199 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: state of New York in the past, but she doesn't 200 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 1: care about that. She's playing politics in this thing. It's 201 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: absolutely demeaning. Another telltale sign. Even Bill Barr has come 202 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: out in support of President Trump in this case, and 203 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,080 Speaker 1: the usual characters who attack them like a Norm Eisen 204 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,719 Speaker 1: are already writing about you know, this is the end, 205 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: this is the final straw, and so on, and it's 206 00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: all politics based around the election time. But they have 207 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:07,160 Speaker 1: said this every single time with Russia, starting with Russia, Russia, Russia. 208 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: It never works out to say the way that they 209 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: say it. Well, Greg Jared, as you well know. And 210 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,719 Speaker 1: the reality is now Trump and his family and all 211 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: the entities involved and his kids. I mean, they're going 212 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: after this guy's kids. Now. They're going to have to 213 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 1: spend a fortune on legal fees to fight back against this, 214 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: and at the end of the day, they're going to 215 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: end up spending millions of dollars defending what is a 216 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:37,079 Speaker 1: frivolous civil suit against them, with the risk that he 217 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,840 Speaker 1: had to buy his jury on top of it. Yeah, 218 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: they're counting on a New York jury much the same 219 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 1: way as the DOJ counts on Washington jurors who hate 220 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. This case is utterly without Mara two twenty 221 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: page is long, and every single page is garbage under 222 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: the law, it's frivolous, and it's political play punitive, it's 223 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 1: grossly unethical. But the you know, Letitia James is counting on. 224 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: I hate Donald Trump jury, and you know you put 225 00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 1: up the other night. I think with thirty some odd 226 00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: investigations that Trump has had to endure, this is yet 227 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: another one. And you know, I think part of the 228 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: ploy here on his opponents is to just drive him 229 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: to run out of money just defending his innocence. You know, 230 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: how do you think this ends? David Shonan, what would 231 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: you recommend President Trump do from here and his family 232 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 1: do from here? Listen that you know, like in every lawsuit, 233 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: and there's some effort to settle the case, she's not 234 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: interested in that. She's interested in headlines. He's interested in 235 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 1: being the person to take down Donald Trump. He's going 236 00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: to fight it. He's got to fight it. And in 237 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: this case, he can fight it on the numbers, he 238 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 1: can fight it on the industry. He's going to bring 239 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: in experts who will show the industry works exactly as 240 00:14:55,640 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: you described it. And again, this all goes to materiality 241 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: of representations made, who suffered losses. At the end of 242 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 1: the day, one has to hope that this is one 243 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: more step in the public just rising up and saying 244 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: enough is already too much. By the way, what are 245 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: the odds that Donald Trump. Now, maybe he would have 246 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: said to his accountants or financial experts, well, I think 247 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: this is worth a lot more than you're saying, or 248 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 1: some comment like that. I could, I could see that happening. 249 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 1: But the bottom line is, I doubt he's the one 250 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 1: filling out the loan application himself and making the valuations himself. 251 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,920 Speaker 1: It's got to be based on some type of rationale reasoning, 252 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 1: and it's totally subjective. I mean, if you really love 253 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: your house, you might think it's worth two million dollars, 254 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: but the real market value might be a million. But 255 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,200 Speaker 1: you love your house, it's worth two millions. No, it's 256 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: worth a million. Yeah. Yet that's a critical point that 257 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: you've made. And in fact, this business of you assessing 258 00:15:56,200 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 1: values and real estate is so subjective. I mean, the 259 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: swings can be wild, but you know what's very telling. 260 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: You go down to the prayer of this lawsuit, Lutitia 261 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 1: James doesn't ask for damages. Why, because there are no damages. 262 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: Nobody was injured, nobody was harmed. And that blows a 263 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:21,560 Speaker 1: hole right through her case because, as I pointed out, 264 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: in a civil case based on fraud, you have to 265 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: prove that someone was harmed. There is no harm. So 266 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 1: just another reason to get the IRS to investigate him again, 267 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 1: and another investigation ensues. Unbelievable. Well, they'll have eighty seven 268 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 1: thousand more agents involved in doing so we'll see what happens, 269 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: all right, David shown, Thank you, Greg Jarrett, as always, 270 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 1: thank you. Get your dose of independence and liberty every 271 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: weekday right here on the Sean Hannity Show at twenty 272 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: five to the top of the hour, eight hundred nine 273 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 1: one Seawn. If you want to be a part of 274 00:16:57,400 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: the program, as you know, it is down in Palm 275 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: Beach yesterday and I did not expect to go. What 276 00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: I was with President Trump about two hours yesterday gave 277 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 1: us a lot of time. We have another full hour 278 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: of programming, and we spent all the time yesterday pretty 279 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,119 Speaker 1: much on the issues of the rate of Marlago and 280 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 1: this breaking news issue with Letitia James, and got into 281 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:22,679 Speaker 1: great specificity. So I thought I'd play at least that 282 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: part of it here, so you can kind of hear 283 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 1: the conversation as it went along his responses to it. 284 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: It's interesting the media mob wants to ignore a lot 285 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: of it. But listen, you saw the Letitia James terrible. Okay, 286 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,600 Speaker 1: what was your reaction. Well, she campaigned on it four 287 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 1: years ago. It was a vicious campaign and she just 288 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,440 Speaker 1: talked about Trump and we're going to indict him, We're 289 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,200 Speaker 1: going to get him. She knew nothing about me. I 290 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,200 Speaker 1: never heard of her, but I saw this woman. I 291 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,720 Speaker 1: saw the statements she was putting out without knowing anything, 292 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:53,200 Speaker 1: and she said we're going to get him. That Her 293 00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 1: whole campaign was based on that. And then she came 294 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 1: after us. We've been going over this for years, and 295 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 1: I actually thought, because our values are really high, the 296 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,440 Speaker 1: company is great. I built a great company to take 297 00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:07,639 Speaker 1: places like this, so many other places that I have 298 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,880 Speaker 1: like this, frankly, I mean among the finest places anywhere 299 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,320 Speaker 1: in the world. I actually thought that they would never 300 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,200 Speaker 1: bring a case, and she brought it. And the reason 301 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: I thought, because she didn't have a case. I was 302 00:18:21,640 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: of the impression she wanted to settle. But I had 303 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 1: a problem because how do you pay something, even if 304 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: it's a small amount of money, if you're not guilty. 305 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,679 Speaker 1: This was just a continuation of a witch hunt that 306 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,479 Speaker 1: began when I came down the escalator at Trump Tower 307 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 1: with our who would know, our great future first lady 308 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: who's done a great job and people love her. But 309 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,400 Speaker 1: we came down the escalator and it started. But I'm 310 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,360 Speaker 1: so proud of what we did. We had the strongest 311 00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: border in the country. We had the biggest tax cuts 312 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,520 Speaker 1: and regulation cuts. We had the best employment ever in 313 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:56,360 Speaker 1: the country, were energy independent. We did things that nobody 314 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,639 Speaker 1: ever thought possible. We would have been energy dominant throughout 315 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,800 Speaker 1: the world world in a very short period of time, 316 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,080 Speaker 1: much larger than Russia, much larger than Saudi Arabia put together. 317 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 1: We were all set, and then they came along and 318 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:11,480 Speaker 1: they just dismantled that they wouldn't finish the wall. The 319 00:19:11,520 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 1: wall was completed, the original section was completed. I said, 320 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: let's do more. We did more. He could have had 321 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 1: that finished in three weeks, and now you have millions 322 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 1: and millions of people pouring through. We had the strongest 323 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 1: border in history, and by the way, that included drugs too. 324 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 1: We had drugs down nineteen percent from what they were 325 00:19:28,240 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: the previous year and twenty percent from what they were 326 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: that previous year. We were doing great, and now the 327 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 1: drugs are pouring into our country at a level that 328 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: nobody's seen and the people they're emptying out their prisons 329 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: to get to the old decisions. Let me go back 330 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: to Latician James, did you ever in your life all 331 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: out a loan application run in the Trump organization? Well, 332 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:51,320 Speaker 1: you know, we make loans, but I have very little debt. 333 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: You know. It's what I want to tell you. I 334 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: might add one thing. They've demeaned me for years with 335 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 1: this stuff, and now they find out I have very 336 00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,520 Speaker 1: little debt, very very little, a lot of cash. We 337 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 1: have a great company, and we have among the best 338 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: assets anywhere in the world. But I went through they 339 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: were demeaning me. You know, constantly, these people, there's something 340 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: wrong with them. I think I really believe they hate 341 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: our country. I was told that in your financial statements, 342 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 1: when you make it a loan application and you can 343 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,600 Speaker 1: confirm or if you know this or not know this, 344 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: do you put in a caveat that actually says these 345 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:28,879 Speaker 1: are our valuations. Because I don't know lending institution, a 346 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: bank or financial institution that would lend money to anybody 347 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: and just go by the borrowers estimation evaluation of a 348 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 1: particular property. So if you're buying one hundred million dollar 349 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:43,199 Speaker 1: property and you're putting X, Y and Z up for leverage, 350 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 1: you estimate its value at this. They estimate it at this. 351 00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 1: Don't they have a fiduciary responsibility before you give you 352 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: that amount of money. So what they determine with the 353 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: value of These are banks that have the best law 354 00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 1: firms in the world, the biggest and best and most powerful. 355 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,639 Speaker 1: They do their own work. They don't rely on us. 356 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: But what they do is we have a disclaimer and 357 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: we put together my people put it together. I would 358 00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 1: look at it and it looked fine, but it's not 359 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: overly important. What's important is the property. I have the 360 00:21:10,720 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 1: best property. What happened, Sean, is we have a dislaimer 361 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 1: right on the front, and it basically says, you know, 362 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: get your own people, you're at your own risk. This 363 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,679 Speaker 1: was done by management. It wasn't done by It was 364 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: done by management. So don't rely on the statement that 365 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 1: you're getting and it's and by the way it goes 366 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 1: on for like a page and a half. It's a 367 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: very big disclaimer. It's a very powerful dislaimer. It basically 368 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 1: says to an institution, you're going to loan money, you 369 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,439 Speaker 1: have to go out and make sure that you know, 370 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: you get your own appraises, your own lawyers, everything. These 371 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: are banks that have the best lawyers in the world. Shown. 372 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: This is the only by the way, that got paid back. 373 00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 1: So you know, nobody got I never got a default. 374 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 1: I paid them back because we have a lot of cash. 375 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,800 Speaker 1: I paid them back. I paid many of them off. 376 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 1: I have very little debt, unbelievably little, and the loans off. 377 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:05,280 Speaker 1: So here's so there was no harm, no bank. So 378 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 1: you told every institution what you believe the valuation is. 379 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: They have a fiduciary responsibility before they give you one 380 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: hundred or two hundred or three hundred million dollars to 381 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: buy a property. They have that responsibility to come up 382 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 1: with their own valuation because they've got their own bosses 383 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,719 Speaker 1: and shareholders that they have to answer to. So they 384 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: would look at a property like this, I don't even 385 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,199 Speaker 1: have a mortgage on this property. I don't have a 386 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 1: mortgage on most of my properties. You know, I used 387 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: to read wires over extended and he had so much 388 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 1: money borrowed. And I'm saying, what are they talking about? 389 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: But and actually the one good thing is people see 390 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: what a great company I built. I built a great company, 391 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 1: a powerful company, a company that's very lowly leveraged, with 392 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: the among the best assets anywhere in the world. I mean, 393 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: you look at this asset. She has this down at 394 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 1: seventy five million dollars. I can tell you it's many 395 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: times that number. She said, oh, he valued it at 396 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 1: seventy five or whatever it was, or she valued at 397 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: seventy five. What does Letitia James now? But if I 398 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 1: were going I don't have a mortgage on this property, 399 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: if I was going to put a mortgage on this property, 400 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: the institutions are going to be coming over. They're going 401 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: to go through comparable properties all of a pomp Beach 402 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: or whatever it is, wherever it may be, Miami. We 403 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,919 Speaker 1: have them all over. We have tremendous properties. And again 404 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 1: we have very little debt. The debt we did have 405 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 1: it was it was paid current. The banks made a 406 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: lot of money. She's trying to defend banks that got 407 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: paid off. She's trying to defend banks that had unbelievable 408 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: legal talent. I will tell you that they're very good. 409 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: You don't. There's no law that you can think of 410 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: where they can do their own valuation, their own vetting, 411 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 1: their own financial assessment. All right. By the way, they 412 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,239 Speaker 1: have people in house that do it too. But you 413 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: can't just say, you know, here's a financial statement. But 414 00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: what we do is here's a financial statement. But be 415 00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 1: careful because it may not be accurate, it may be 416 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: way off. I mean, we we go. I think it's 417 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 1: close to a page and a half of all of 418 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: these things. Get your own people, use your own appraisers, 419 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 1: use your own lawyers. Don't rely on us. And then 420 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:14,880 Speaker 1: she sued us. Now again, I didn't think this would 421 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,040 Speaker 1: ever happen because they had no case. I met with them. 422 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: I actually thought they wanted to settle. But I didn't 423 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 1: want to settle, because how can you even if I 424 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: paid a very small amount, you're sort of admitting guilt 425 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: that she offered you a settlement deal. I could have said, 426 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 1: my opinion, I could have settled a case. They said, 427 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: something strange is happening at Mara Lago. There are people 428 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:36,639 Speaker 1: standing at the gates with eight K forty sevens or 429 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:40,920 Speaker 1: some kind of a very sophisticated gun, and what's happening 430 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,160 Speaker 1: at mar Lago? And when I heard that, I said, well, 431 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 1: let's put out a notice that we were attacked or 432 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: rated or broken in by the FBI. I couldn't believe it. 433 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: In January of this year, the National Archives Record Administration, 434 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 1: I guess they had been negotiating or they came and 435 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: got fifteen boxes. My understanding is that they sent you 436 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 1: a letter thanking you and your team for their cooperation, 437 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: actually thanked us, Yeah, thank you, okay. And then so 438 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 1: at that point, what was your involvement in the process? 439 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 1: Did you have not much of an involvement other than 440 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: we had boxes. And again, many of these boxes had 441 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 1: other things, you know, many many newspapers literally massive amounts 442 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: of newspapers and pictures. But there were a lot of 443 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: boxes for a lot of different things. But they actually 444 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 1: wrote a letter, thank you very much for your cooperation. Effectively, 445 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 1: and we were doing that, which is exactly what we're 446 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: supposed to do based on the Presidential Records Act, and Sean, 447 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:45,600 Speaker 1: we were doing that, and we continued to do it, 448 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: and then we got hit by it. We got it 449 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 1: was because it was so voluminous, the number of papers. Well, 450 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: it was asking you have pictures of it. Actually, you 451 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 1: have pictures of it pretty much. I think many pictures 452 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,640 Speaker 1: of people. I think there would gesa mostly people, some 453 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 1: people in the house standing outside of the White House. 454 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: Other people were coming up and taking pictures. If we 455 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,440 Speaker 1: wanted to do this, would do it through the basement, 456 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: and we wouldn't let anybody take pictures. When you left 457 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: the presidency, gas was two dollars and like twenty cents 458 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,760 Speaker 1: a gallon. Well, you have to go back to the 459 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: date of the election, So we go back to November third, 460 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 1: don't go back to January. It was dollar number two. 461 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:31,120 Speaker 1: It was less than to it else. But during that 462 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 1: period it was a dollar eighty seven. And during that 463 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 1: period it was also a dollar fifty. We had gasoline 464 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: a minute. Was incredible. What was happening? So our borders 465 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: were secure. Gas was cheap, energy was cheap. You leave office, 466 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: the consumer price index, the inflation measure is what one 467 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,200 Speaker 1: point four percent? Now what seven months in a row 468 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 1: at eight point four percent going to be a much higher. 469 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 1: As soon as the election's over, they're artificially I filled 470 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: up the strategic reserves when was cheap. I bought seventy 471 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 1: five million barrels at a very very cheap price, filled 472 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: it all up right to the top. First time it 473 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 1: happened in fifty years where it was filled to the top. 474 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: And they've taken that and they're giving it to people. 475 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 1: It's supposed to be meant for war and for the military. 476 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,520 Speaker 1: They're giving to people to keep the oil prices down 477 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:20,199 Speaker 1: before an election. That's where it's being used. When the 478 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 1: election is over, gasoline will go through the roof, all right, 479 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 1: and so will your heating bills, so will your electric bills. 480 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:30,479 Speaker 1: The thing about it, I mean, what puzzles me, And 481 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: maybe you can answer it. I can't figure it out 482 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 1: for myself. But okay, we have more energy resources, hundreds 483 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:40,119 Speaker 1: and hundreds of years of natural gas and oil and 484 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:44,399 Speaker 1: coal in this country. You got us to energy independence. 485 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,199 Speaker 1: That was the first time in seventy five years you 486 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:49,480 Speaker 1: left office, we were net exporter of energy. I would argue, 487 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: especially in light of Putin cutting off Western Europe, that 488 00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:55,199 Speaker 1: we should be used the word dominant. We should be 489 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 1: energy dominant in providing Western Europe with their energy needs. 490 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: We were soon going to be dominant. We would have 491 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: been the most dominant in the world. We would have 492 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: been supplying to Europe, we would have been supplying China, 493 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:07,960 Speaker 1: we would have been supplying every WEE had five hundred 494 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 1: years right under our feet. Yeah, okay, So Western Europe 495 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,120 Speaker 1: makes a mistake that I think we're about to make, 496 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: and that is they gave into the climate alarmist religious 497 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:22,080 Speaker 1: cult I call it. And they became dependent on Vladimir Putin, 498 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 1: hostile actor, hostile regime. You knew them well. And as 499 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: a result Germany was announced yesterday in Italy so dependent 500 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy four percent increase in their heating 501 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 1: bills anticipated this year, which I said would happened. Thirty 502 00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 1: percent of people's yearly income will go to heat people's homes. 503 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 1: There are real reports and fear that people will die 504 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 1: and freeze to death in Europe this winter because Putin 505 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 1: has cut them offstro So we have all these resources 506 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,480 Speaker 1: to explain this to me. Why is it okay to 507 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,880 Speaker 1: get oil from Iran? Biden's trying to make a deal. 508 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: And by the way, last year, when nobody was looking, 509 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 1: he imported a million barrels six hundred and seventy four 510 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: million from Russia last year. He's been begging OPEC to 511 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 1: increase production. They reject him. Every time the Saudis have 512 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: rejected him. He sent an emissary to Venezuela. Why would 513 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 1: we ever make those countries wealthy and rely on them 514 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: for the lifeblood or our economy, especially in light of 515 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 1: what we've seen in Western Europe because their dependency problem 516 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: is now destroying their economies. So listen to it's sort 517 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 1: of it's good to me. It's not complex. We are 518 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: making Putin rich as he does his war thing. He's 519 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: making money over and above because it's so expensive barrels 520 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: of oil right now. If we ever reduced oil, he's 521 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: going to have to stop. You don't even have to 522 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 1: negotiate the deal. Would have never happened, that horrible war 523 00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: where hundreds of thousands of people probably are dead already. 524 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: But did you believe it would happened if you were president? 525 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: You told me that. I know it wouldn't have helped me. 526 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: Why I used to talk to him about it because 527 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:09,160 Speaker 1: he knew that I was going to take tremendous retribution 528 00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: or he felt that way, whether it's ten percent or 529 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: five percent. Did you tell him in no uncertain terms. 530 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 1: You would I'd rather not say, but the answer is yes. Right. 531 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 1: So that was President Trump yesterday down to Mara Lago. 532 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 1: We got another full, entire show with him. He spent 533 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 1: a lot of time with us. We you know, it 534 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: took so much time going over the rate of Mara 535 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: Lago and Latitia James, that we just kept talking about 536 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: the upcoming election now in forty seven days, and his 537 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 1: position on issues, and how Republicans can win, and what 538 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: the arguments ought to be, what the agenda needs to be. 539 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: We got a lot of ground to cover. While part 540 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: two on Hannity tonight, say a DVR nineties and on 541 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: the Fox News channel and we'll run that tonight. Listen. 542 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 1: If you want to improve, if you're a Second Amendment 543 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: person like I am, and you want to improve your shooting, 544 00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,200 Speaker 1: maybe I'm hearing loss like I do. So I don't 545 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: get to shoot like I used to. I'm so glad 546 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: I've got Mantis X. It has dramatically brought my skills 547 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: back almost instantaneously. Linda got very angry when she found 548 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: out that I was scoring in the high nineties and 549 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 1: what was your initial scores? Sixteen? I don't know that 550 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 1: we need to remind the audience every time how bad 551 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: I was at this, But yes it was. It was 552 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,520 Speaker 1: a very poor example of my skill set, for sure. 553 00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:28,240 Speaker 1: It was about fifteen mantis X high. But the good 554 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: news is now you're you've hit ninety, You've gotten to 555 00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 1: I have I hit ninety and I practice every day, 556 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 1: and I have to tell anybody who's into shooting into 557 00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: target practice, super fun, super easy. So it's a high tech, 558 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: but affordable and easy to use system. It's used extensively 559 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: by a military and the top shooters in the entire world. 560 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: It'll give you all the confidence that you need to 561 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: have the ability to protect your loved ones.
