[00:00:00]  Donald Trump 
 Hello, everybody. 

[00:00:01]  Andrew Schulz 
 Welcome to flagrant. And, uh, today, this is the first time that we've, uh, been able to say this. We are sitting down with, uh, Mr. President. Mr. President. Thank you so much for being here. 

[00:00:09]  Donald Trump 
 Thank you very much. Thank you, fellas. 

[00:00:10]  Andrew Schulz 
 Thank you, sir. Appreciate it. This is awesome. Uh, we have a bunch of questions. We're very, very grateful for your time. 

[00:00:15]  Donald Trump 
 Okay. 

[00:00:15]  Andrew Schulz 
 Uh, I just. I just became a dad. My buddy over there just became a dad. Mark. Okay, so here's first question. You have these children that are seemingly well adjusted, successful, and I think, most importantly, they appear to like you. 

[00:00:34]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. 

[00:00:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay. Uh, I grew up in the city, and there's a lot of people who had, like, very wealthy parents, and, like, the kids kind of resent them. They're almost, like, waiting for them to, like, die, and they end up in, like, rehabs, doing drugs, God knows what. Yeah. How do you raise them in the public eye where they, you know, still. 

[00:00:55]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. 

[00:00:55]  Andrew Schulz 
 Become ambitious and successful. 

[00:00:57]  Donald Trump 
 So I do have good kids and, uh, five really wonderful children and, uh. Different. Very different. Yeah, they are so different. But, you know, one thing that was in common that I did, I always used to say when I was with them or when they were leaving a room, I would drive them crazy. 

[00:01:14]   
 No drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. I would say that. 

[00:01:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 Would you say that to Don Jr? 

[00:01:19]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. Don's a little wild. He's a wild. Ah. He can be a little tough. 

[00:01:26]  Andrew Schulz 
 He told me a funny story. 

[00:01:28]  Donald Trump 
 Go ahead. 

[00:01:28]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay. I talked to a bunch of people. I was trying to, you know, prepare for this interview. He told me a funny story. And, uh, he said to me, he goes, once he asked if he could have a couple of his friends over for New Year's. Was it New Year? No, no, it was July 4th. 

[00:01:41]   
 Right on top of Trump Tower, right? 

[00:01:43]  Akaash Singh 
 Five friends, you said yes. 

[00:01:44]  Andrew Schulz 
 He's like, I want five friends. You're like, okay, I'm out of town. Go for it. He brings 200 people over to Trump Town. Okay. 

[00:01:50]  Donald Trump 
 That's right. 

[00:01:51]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay. He says that you weren't supposed to be there. You end up showing up. You hear some noise upstairs, you come up, you go, what the fuck is everybody doing here? Get the hell out of my house. He said he cleaned for the next 36 hours. And he said, to this day, you have never brought up that it even happened. 

[00:02:11]   
 And he said, I'm starting to believe it might not have happened. Can you give him closure? 

[00:02:18]  Donald Trump 
 No, it happened. No, I can never give closure. You can never forget. A lot of people like to forget things. You can't no, he's a good guy. You know, he's taken a lot because, uh, he was always a good student. He went to the Wharton School of Finance, which is great, and he did well. 

[00:02:37]   
 But he, uh, he went into the world of politics not because he wanted to, but because I was there. And I sort of automatically drag the family in. And this guy, what he had to go through with Russia. Russia, Russia. Dad, they're asking me questions about Russia. I don't know anything about Russia. 

[00:02:55]   
 What's going on. And all of a sudden, he's in front of grand juries, he's in front of Congress. It was a hoax. It was a total hoax. This was a, uh, made up hoax by crazy Nancy Pelosi and these maniacs, uh, Hillary Clinton, who's totally nuts. And this went on for two years. 

[00:03:12]   
 And he said, dad, I know nothing about this stuff. And he'd go before the grand jury and, you know, comey, you have Comey. Who's the worst? Just a bad guy. But, um, he went through a lot, and it actually made him tougher. I don't know if that's good or bad, but he's a tough cookie, that one. 

[00:03:30]   
 And it made, in his case, uh, it made him tougher. Ivanka, uh, did a great job. She didn't want anything. All she wanted to do is get people jobs. I would have made her the ambassador to the UN I wanted to do that. I think she would have been incredible. The whole aura. 

[00:03:45]   
 She, uh, would have been great, but she didn't want that. She didn't. And that would have been a very glamorous position. She would have been great there. All she did is go to see companies and hire people she wanted. And she hired, I think it was like 10 million people. Some incredible amount of people. 

[00:04:00]   
 She'd go to Walmart, she'd go to Exxon, she'd go to these big companies and see if she could get groups of people hired. And she loved doing it. It was great. And she. There was no glamour. There was no anything, but she got people jobs. That made her. 

[00:04:13]  Andrew Schulz 
 So how do you instill the ambition in the kids? I think a lot of kids that grow up with wealth, they kind of are lazy and they feel like they have no direction in life. And a lot of times they turn to, like, drugs and other shit. How do you instill the ambition? 

[00:04:25]  Donald Trump 
 Well, you know, I've seen a lot of wealthy families where the kids are mostly don't work out too well. Some don't turn out to be bad kids. But they end up hating the father or the father maybe wanted them in business. I mean, I have one father that's very competitive with his son. 

[00:04:41]   
 He's, uh. If the son were more successful than him, he would hate it. He would be unhappy. I said, are you crazy? It's supposed to be the other way around. 

[00:04:49]  Akaash Singh 
 That's awesome. 

[00:04:50]  Donald Trump 
 My father was so proud of me. He was a successful guy, but my father wanted me to be more successful. I mean, he was so proud of all the things. I wish he could have seen what happened because we did things. But he, um, was, you know, he's just a proud father. What do you think? 

[00:05:06]   
 And I think most fathers are that way. I hope that. But I've known many fathers that are very successful that didn't want their. That broke up over their son's success. If, you know, in the few cases where the son was more successful, which was very seldom, actually, you know, it's very seldom. You take people like, uh, in sports. 

[00:05:24]   
 Because in sports, you see it. Because it's a microcosm of life, but it's quicker. And you'll take, like, the greatest golfers, and they'll have a son and he'll be really good as a young. But they never supersede almost. I can't think of any. They never supersede the father in terms of success. Uh, and in sports, generally, baseball, you can go to a lot of different sports. 

[00:05:46]   
 Uh, and it really is a sort of a microcosm of life. But with life, it takes a lot longer to find out. The answer comes to fruition. 

[00:05:53]  Akaash Singh 
 I'm sorry to interrupt you, but you said. We said you're a great father. Up top. First thing you say is, I've got great kids. You didn't take credit. And then your entire answer. And I thought this was really cool. Your entire answer is about how great your kids are. That was a very cool thing. 

[00:06:04]  Donald Trump 
 Thank you. That's very nice. I think I like this interview. I think he's right. And by the way, congratulations. I hear your show is like. Is crazy Monster success. 

[00:06:15]  Andrew Schulz 
 We're doing. We're doing pretty good. We're very, uh. Yeah, yeah. We're interviewing president. 

[00:06:19]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[00:06:19]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. Uh, it's really good. And right in the middle of a campaign with only 29 days to go. 

[00:06:24]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:06:25]  Donald Trump 
 And you're taking up time just to. 

[00:06:28]  Andrew Schulz 
 Talk about your family. 

[00:06:29]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. 

[00:06:29]  Akaash Singh 
 We're just complimenting. 

[00:06:30]  Donald Trump 
 You know what it is. It's a different world out there. You guys and some others. Yeah. Um, you know, you stand. We had the standard television stuff. For many years. And that's still. I think, you know, I think it's underrated now. I think it's still very important. Sure. But there's a whole new, uh, thing. 

[00:06:46]   
 Uh. Elon interviewed me on something. Yeah. And I think they said 275 million hits or listed. 

[00:06:54]  Andrew Schulz 
 That's a lot of people. 

[00:06:55]  Donald Trump 
 That was a. 

[00:06:56]  Akaash Singh 
 That's a nation. Yeah. 

[00:06:57]  Donald Trump 
 But it's a whole new different way of, uh. 

[00:07:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 Can I ask you a question? 

[00:07:00]  Donald Trump 
 Getting the word out. Right. 

[00:07:01]  Andrew Schulz 
 About Elon specifically. Is he your favorite African American? 

[00:07:06]  Donald Trump 
 He's a piece of work, I'll tell you. You know, he's a great guy. 

[00:07:10]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:07:11]  Donald Trump 
 With. I mean, he's obviously a brilliant guy. 

[00:07:13]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:07:13]  Donald Trump 
 I mean, when I saw the rocket engines come back, I said, what is that? Like a couple of years ago? You know, I've seen rockets go up and then they crash into the water. And I see the. The engines are coming back and they're landing. 

[00:07:25]  Andrew Schulz 
 It's unbelievable. 

[00:07:26]  Donald Trump 
 They're landing, and they land on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a little dot, and they land right on the top of the spot. 

[00:07:32]  Andrew Schulz 
 And my wife can't parallel park. 

[00:07:34]  Donald Trump 
 I know most people can't. But. No, he's great, but. But he's got a great heart. He was with me, as you know, on the other night. 

[00:07:43]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:07:43]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, and we were honoring a man who got killed at a rally. Corey firefighter, Great guy. And it was a beautiful evening. But Lee Elon went out and he loved the crowd. He loves the country. 

[00:07:56]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:07:56]  Donald Trump 
 And he's picked a side. A lot of people don't want to pick a side. I have a lot of people that are, um, big supporters of me. 

[00:08:04]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:08:04]  Donald Trump 
 But they. They won't go all out. You know, they can't quite. There's a cost. There's a cost. Yeah, there is a cost, but there's also a liability. I mean, you know, some people. I respect it a lot when this guy was up there doing jumping jacks. You gotta vote for Trump. You gotta vote for Trump. 

[00:08:20]  Andrew Schulz 
 He was jumping high. 

[00:08:21]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah, he was jumping high. 

[00:08:22]  Andrew Schulz 
 He looked quite African. 

[00:08:24]  Donald Trump 
 He's in good shape. 

[00:08:25]  Andrew Schulz 
 I look. 

[00:08:26]  Donald Trump 
 I'm looking at his waist. I'm saying, wait a minute, does he work out or something? But he's. He is. He really. And he had a. He had a great time. And, you know, he's not out that much. He's probably maybe, uh, a little. Would you say he's a little reclusive? Possibly. 

[00:08:39]  Andrew Schulz 
 He's also busy. 

[00:08:41]  Donald Trump 
 He's very busy. And maybe a Little reclusive, but he had the greatest time. He was saying, look at these people. We had 100,000. More than 100,000 people. It was a record nobody's ever seen. And it was a celebration of a life. And it was really a mega. It was a mega deal. Uh, he was a big maga person. 

[00:09:01]   
 His family was there, and two other people that were very badly hurt were also celebrated. They were, uh, very badly hurt. They weren't actually expected to live. Yeah, and they lived. And, uh, they had incredible doctors. Some of those country doctors are better than the big doctors that we spend a lot of money on, and they don't do as good. 

[00:09:18]   
 I will tell you right now, we don't want to knock anybody, but those country doctors saved two people because I was told that three. No, think of that. Three would be in trouble. And we were going to now, Corey, immediately. But the other two were so bad that they thought they wouldn't make it. 

[00:09:33]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:09:34]  Donald Trump 
 And, uh, those country doctors, they pulled them. They pulled them together. They did a great job. 

[00:09:39]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay, so you're going back into this place where, you know, there is this assassination. They hit you headshot, you survive. 

[00:09:46]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. It was not a good feeling. 

[00:09:48]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. Yeah. Are you. Are you scared, by the way? 

[00:09:51]  Donald Trump 
 Um, no, I'm not scared. You know, I sort of. I have an attitude. It's interesting. It sort of. It is what it is. Does that make any sense to you guys? You do what you have to do. I felt it was important to go back. Uh, a lot of people, I guess, agreed with me because it was, uh, over 100. 

[00:10:08]   
 I think they said 108,000 people in the end. That's a lot of people. Um, and I had no guitar. If you have a guitar, it's easy. You don't have a guitar. I have guitar. I do have that. They like me very much, but, uh, I don't have a guitar. 

[00:10:28]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, you have the guitar. Yes. 

[00:10:29]  Donald Trump 
 So anyway, uh, but that was an amazing. It was amazing. I mean, I like it when somebody like Elon, who has a lot to lose, is willing to do what's right. Some people know it's right to do. And I'm not just talking about endorsements and all, but they don't want to do things because they're, uh. 

[00:10:49]  Andrew Schulz 
 They don't want it to cost. 

[00:10:51]  Donald Trump 
 They want to be politically correct. And actually they're doing a bad. Know a bad thing. I think for themselves and for a lot of people, they may represent. 

[00:10:58]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay, opening line when you walk out there, Uh, I mean, I was. I was Wondering what you were going to say. And as a comedian, there's. You can seize the moment. 

[00:11:06]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. And he was a hell of a comedian, by the way. 

[00:11:09]  Andrew Schulz 
 I appreciate that. 

[00:11:10]  Donald Trump 
 That's what the word is. 

[00:11:12]  Andrew Schulz 
 So I hear you go. I hear. You know, I see the video, and you go up there and you go. As I was saying. 

[00:11:17]  Donald Trump 
 Right. 

[00:11:17]  Andrew Schulz 
 Crowd goes berserk or what? 

[00:11:21]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, they went, I would say, crazy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll tell you how, you know, you have this as a comedian or even as a. Not as a comedian. Just when you make a speech or you make some very serious statement. 

[00:11:34]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:11:35]  Donald Trump 
 So we're at a very serious and somber thing because we're celebrating a life that is no longer with us. And I wasn't sure whether or not that thing. I had it in my mind for a long time. Uh, once I said, I'm going back, which I wanted to go back immediately. I wanted to actually finish my speech. 

[00:11:52]   
 Okay. When I got up, I said, let me finish my speech. But I'm surrounded by, like, eight very large men and a very wonderful woman. You saw that? 

[00:12:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. 

[00:12:04]  Donald Trump 
 But I'm surrounded by guys. They said, sir, no way. Go. And I. Blood pouring down. But I wanted to. I really wanted to finish my speech. I said, I think I had, like, 50,000. I had a lot of people there. Yeah. Uh, and, you know, when I went down, I was sort of, like, embarrassed. 

[00:12:18]   
 I said, I went down in front of all these people. You know, that was my first thing. I. I don't want to be embarrassed. You were embarrassed. 

[00:12:25]  Andrew Schulz 
 You went down after being shot. 

[00:12:26]  Donald Trump 
 Well, you weren't exactly sure what the hell was happening at first, you know. 

[00:12:30]  Akaash Singh 
 But also, you came back up with a fist. 

[00:12:31]  Andrew Schulz 
 Right. That's one of the hardest pictures. 

[00:12:33]  Donald Trump 
 But I. I was also. 

[00:12:34]  Andrew Schulz 
 Did you hear them say, he's down, or were you just like. 

[00:12:36]  Donald Trump 
 So when I got hit, I assume that it's funny. Uh, Is it? When I was standing there, it is sort of strange. I guess now it's a little bit. We can smile a little bit. But not really, because the three guys. One killed one, Two very badly. But when I went down, um, I had total realization it wasn't a surreal. 

[00:12:58]   
 You know, they talked about a surreal. That could be a surreal experience. Like when somebody. Something happens, some traumatic thing happens. People are. They lose focus. They have no idea where they are. They. You know, I've heard many people, uh, where that happened. Something really terrible happened like that. It was just the opposite. 

[00:13:16]   
 I knew exactly what had happened. I got shot in the Ear and Secret Service thought I may have been shot. Uh, actually, they're pretty sure that I was shot all over because there was a lot of blood. Just a little fact. If you get shot in the ear, it's the bloodiest place. It bleeds more than anything else. 

[00:13:33]   
 Oh, wow. Um, now it's good to be shot this way, not that way, that way. That's bad. 

[00:13:39]  Andrew Schulz 
 Not bad. 

[00:13:39]  Donald Trump 
 So if I don't turn, I wouldn't be doing this right now. Gary. 

[00:13:43]  Andrew Schulz

 I'm in Lexington, Kentucky. All those dates are doctors thing. Com. Also, I'm still a fan base is doing the damn thing. If you want to place your bets with steak, I'm, um, gonna get picks from betting experts. You suck at gambling. Be honest with yourself for once in your life. You ain't want shit in your life. 

[00:15:11]   
 And I know this because I probably know sports more than most of y'all and I still be losing. So I just steal these guys picks because they're professional. Cappers, they call them. That means they're professional gamblers. This is a little euphemism. Anyway, I'm also gonna talk some sports on there. We're gonna live stream this Thursday, do a little livestream during the Thursday night football game. 

[00:15:27]   
 We're just gonna have some fun, talk some sports. If you miss that, come see me fan basis. Now let's get back to the show. 

[00:15:32]  Donald Trump 
 My son Don told me actually he's a great shooter. So is Eric. They're great shooters. They're like better than scratch. Okay. If you use. And they say it's amazing because it was 130 yards. To me that sounds like far away. But it's not, uh, for shooting. It's not. He said that would be like sinking a one foot putt for just a decent shooter. 

[00:15:51]  Akaash Singh 
 Wow. 

[00:15:52]  Donald Trump 
 And I don't know if you guys are shooters, but they said if you're a shooter, it's almost impossible to miss. It's that close. It's really considered that close. I mean, 3, 4, 500 yards is very doable. But this is supposed to be very close. And uh, so he said you. I think Don became more religious, actually. 

[00:16:10]   
 You want to know the truth? It had a big impact. He said, it's impossible. The doctor, actually, when I got to the hospital, they were fantastic. Butler Hospital. I get there and the doctor greeted me and looked at me and looked it over. He said, you are the luckiest man I've ever met. 

[00:16:30]  Andrew Schulz 
 Wow. 

[00:16:30]  Donald Trump 
 He said you should immediately go out and buy a lotto ticket. Can you imagine? He's telling me to buy a lotto ticket. There's blood all over the place. And he, uh, said, I've never. He said, I've been doing this for 25 years. I said. He said, I've never seen a thing like this. 

[00:16:45]   
 Wow. Because it just, you just whacked, whacked it. But it was something that was, you know, relatively, relatively not so bad compared to what could have happened. So I feel very lucky. Uh, it was, uh, an amazing experience, a horrible experience in most ways. Uh, in some ways it was beautiful. Uh, because I was somehow, somehow I hopefully, uh, Corey's protected too, who's the firefighter. 

[00:17:11]   
 And he's in a good place, maybe a better place than we're in, hopefully. Yeah. Because this world is a little bit on the tough side. But it was, uh, it was an amazing experience. 

[00:17:20]  Andrew Schulz 
 Do you feel like increase in your spirituality after something? 

[00:17:25]  Donald Trump 
 Well, maybe. Especially when I'm. I'm hearing from people that do shoot and are good at it. That it was almost impossible to miss from, you know, like a one foot putt. You start to very hard, you gotta miss it. That's a bad putt, right? 

[00:17:38]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:17:38]  Donald Trump 
 Um, he equated it to a one foot putt. When they say that, I say wow, that's so. Ah, you're saying they said a bad shooter would hit you from that distance 100% of the time. Wow, that's pretty, that's pretty bad. And here I am, um, we're doing this wonderful interview with four geniuses that are hot as pistols. 

[00:17:59]   
 Right? Good hair on this guy. 

[00:18:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 Likewise, sir. 

[00:18:04]  Donald Trump 
 Pretty good stuff you got. So anyway, so, uh, but here we are. 

[00:18:08]  Andrew Schulz 
 Who do you think tried to take you out? 

[00:18:11]  Donald Trump 
 So I'm going to give you some big breaking news. Right? 

[00:18:15]  Akaash Singh 
 Love that. 

[00:18:16]  Donald Trump 
 Because you're. I know the kind of show and it's entertainment, but it's also very serious. I mean, I get the whole picture. And you know what, if it was just funny stuff, you wouldn't have the success. You've got to be honest with you. Right? 

[00:18:27]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:18:27]  Donald Trump 
 It's nice to intersperse it. But uh, I'll give you something. So first of all, I have great respect for the Secret Service and the guys that were with me. I went down and I did a good job going down because those bullets were winging over my head. If I would have been up for another couple of seconds, I also wouldn't have been here. 

[00:18:42]   
 But I didn't consider that as lucky as turning to the right at that one. It was like 1/16 of a second was, uh, the only time I was safe. Essentially. If I would have gone a little further, I would have been hit. If I would have gone not as far, I would have been hit. 

[00:18:58]   
 I mean I had like this little tiny moment and the amazing thing is the sign is always on my left and it's always at the end and I only use it 20% of the time, maybe even less than that. This was a chart on immigration because I have the record. I did a great job in immigration. 

[00:19:16]   
 They are not doing too well right now. 

[00:19:19]  Andrew Schulz 
 Stay on the breaking news. 

[00:19:20]  Donald Trump 
 Stay on the breaking news. So here's the break. So you have this shooter and you have another shooter, right? So this shooter had, uh, three or so cell phones. The FBI has never gotten them opened. 

[00:19:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 Wow. 

[00:19:35]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, the other shooter, three apps they call them and I believe they were foreign based apps from what I understand. Oh, wow. They haven't opened them and they're foreign based. And you know, you hear all about Iran because I was rough with Iran. But I want to see Iran do great. I want to see Iran do great. 

[00:19:53]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:19:54]  Donald Trump 
 But I, uh, want to stop all the killing and all this, and. And, uh, I was rough on Iran and they supposedly have a hit on me. In fact, I think it takes great courage for you people to be interviewing me, because it could be now, you know. 

[00:20:06]  Akaash Singh 
 Well, we didn't know that before we got in here. 

[00:20:08]  Donald Trump 
 No. If you would have known that, you might not have done this. 

[00:20:10]  Akaash Singh 
 Exactly. 

[00:20:11]  Donald Trump 
 In fact, this is a good way of begin getting the interview to be short. 

[00:20:14]  Andrew Schulz 
 Exactly. 

[00:20:16]  Donald Trump 
 All of a sudden he's going to say, you know, okay, that's it. Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen. 

[00:20:20]  Andrew Schulz 
 Go see my daughter. 

[00:20:21]  Donald Trump 
 They have three apps and foreign based. Two of them, maybe three of them are foreign based. They haven't opened them yet. Why wouldn't you open them? When you hear about Iran or when you hear about, you know, then the other one had six cell phones and they haven't opened now. You know, it's very hard to open a cell phone. 

[00:20:40]   
 Only Apple can do it in theory, unless you have somebody. But they had no problem getting the J6 people cell phones open. They opened their cell phones very quickly. You know, we have two countries in a, uh, way. What's happening here is very bad. It's very dangerous. We almost had one because I had the greatest economy in the history of our country and people were coming together. 

[00:21:01]   
 We almost had one. But we really do have two right now. And it's a shame because I think we'll get them together. Success will bring us together. But they should get those phones opened. And, you know, when there's an assassination attempt on a former president who's now, I'm proud to say, leading in all the polls against the Democrat, I don't know which one is running. 

[00:21:21]   
 You know, you don't know what the hell's going on. I'm the only one that had a run against two. I run against two Democrats. But, uh, this is a first. We do, we create a lot of firsts. Usually you run against somebody. Here I run. I had to debate. I was way up on him. 

[00:21:34]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:21:35]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, and then they say, oh, let's put this is like with Dana White, a fighter. So you're fighting and the one guy's getting killed and they say, oh, that's okay. Let's put in another fight to finish it off. And you're fighting to say, hey, wait a minute, I have a brand new fighter in here. 

[00:21:48]   
 WWE I spent $150 million on beating Biden. And then all Of a sudden, I hear that they're going to overthrow him. It was a, it was a coup. I mean, it really was. But I would like them to, uh, to open up these apps and find out what's in there. And so he had six. 

[00:22:06]   
 Six cell phones. Who has six cell phones? Having six cell phones is weird. I have cell phones, if I ever have two. It's like a lot. Yeah, he had six cell phones. Why does he have them? And why haven't they opened up those cell phones? 

[00:22:19]  Akaash Singh 
 So if you had to keep. 

[00:22:20]  Donald Trump 
 And it's different, you know, if you're a drug dealer, I think it's terrible in many ways. But I guess from another standpoint, Apple, the primary group, uh, people buy those phones because they will never open them for any reason. But, uh, they got them open on J6. You know, they opened up their phones, but they don't open. 

[00:22:39]   
 And this is big stuff. This is an assassination attempt and it could involve other countries. 

[00:22:45]  Andrew Schulz 
 There was that San Bernardino shooter that they hacked. The FBI was able to hack into the phone. Apple didn't give it up, but they were. 

[00:22:51]  Donald Trump 
 There are some people in the world, very few, that have an ability to sometimes be able to hack in. 

[00:22:58]  Andrew Schulz 
 Got it. 

[00:22:58]  Donald Trump 
 Very rarely, actually. 

[00:23:00]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[00:23:00]  Donald Trump 
 It's an amazing thing when you think that with all the genius, you almost can't do it. But Apple has a key and the key is open. I mean, it just. They can do it immediately, but they don't do it. And they don't do it. And that's one of the reasons that, like I hate to say it, drug lords feel very confident that they'll never be exposed. 

[00:23:19]   
 And they use their cell phones, their Apple phones, and maybe it's that way with other companies. I don't know. They have Samsung, they have other companies, but it's, uh, very hard. Apple's very strong on that. But when it comes to the assassination of a president, leading candidate. 

[00:23:33]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[00:23:33]  Donald Trump 
 Former president, all that, ah, I think the rules have to go out and they have to open those things and they have to find out. 

[00:23:39]  Andrew Schulz 
 And in terms of national security, would. 

[00:23:42]  Donald Trump 
 Say you have to either punish Apple or you have to get somebody that can do it. But in terms of national security, so the one guy has six phones, lots of messages to people. Who are those people he's calling when he's hiding behind a, uh, Bush. 

[00:23:54]  Akaash Singh 
 So if you had to guess, I'm sure you thought, obviously you thought about this a lot. It's an assassination attempt. If you had to guess, who do you think is responsible? 

[00:24:02]  Donald Trump 
 These are great Questions. What the hell? I don't get these questions from the fake news. Yeah. Rosie O'Donnell asking this, like, Deface the Nation. They have the woman of Brennan. She's on Deface the Nation. She was terrible with, uh, the way she handled, uh, J.D. vance, who did a great job the other night. 

[00:24:19]   
 He did. But I don't get questions like that. Did you ever hear of the show Deface, ladies and gentlemen? It's Donald Trump on Deface the Nation. It's called Face. Donations. They hate. They spend. They spend millions of. 

[00:24:32]  Andrew Schulz 
 Name a show that. 

[00:24:34]  Donald Trump 
 I see. You didn't hear of it. That's good. They spend millions of dollars on the name cbs. Yeah. And then I come along and I say to Face. It's Face the Nation. 

[00:24:44]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:24:45]  Donald Trump 
 Or Meet the Fake Press. Meet the Press. 

[00:24:48]  Akaash Singh 
 You're good at this. 

[00:24:48]  Donald Trump 
 I say meet the fake press, and they spend all this money. And then I say it once, and it goes to millions of people. But, no, they are fake. But some of these questions. Some of these questions are much better. 

[00:24:58]  Andrew Schulz 
 Well, thank you. 

[00:24:59]  Akaash Singh 
 I appreciate that. I'm honored. 

[00:25:00]  Donald Trump 
 Much better. 

[00:25:00]  Akaash Singh 
 You still have an answer, though. 

[00:25:02]  Donald Trump 
 That was the best Taj of a question ever. 

[00:25:04]  Akaash Singh 
 That was almost as your second best. 

[00:25:06]  Donald Trump 
 You know what? I'm. You almost charmed us out of it trying to get out of it. 

[00:25:10]  Akaash Singh 
 All right, fair enough. 

[00:25:11]  Donald Trump 
 Well, look, uh, if you look at assassinations or attempts, first of all, you realize I'm in a very dangerous business. Yeah. Okay. Because 1. 1/10. Think of this. 1/10 of 1% of auto races die. 

[00:25:29]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yep. 

[00:25:29]  Donald Trump 
 Bull, uh, riders, I think that's pretty dangerous. Right? 

[00:25:32]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[00:25:32]  Donald Trump 
 I don't know much about it, but I think it's. I wouldn't want to be on one of those suckers. I see them flying off in the hoof is like an inch from the eye, and when it hits the eye, you got. Right. Yeah, they are very. Well, it's about the same. 1/10 of 1%. 

[00:25:46]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:25:47]  Donald Trump 
 And other things. It's never much more than that. That's sort of maxed out, I think. You know, race car drivers, bull riders, I think that's pretty much tough. Uh, ufc, uh, fighters, it's none. You know, I don't think anyone's ever actually. 

[00:26:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 Not in ufc, in MMA or boxing, maybe. It was those tragic events. 

[00:26:04]  Donald Trump 
 Amazingly, boxers die a lot. But ufc, Daniel tells me it's a safe sport. I say, to me, it's much rougher, but, you know, it's pretty amazing. They've never. In ufc, they've never lost, and they run a great Operation. They've never. Nobody's died. But with presidents, it's like a substantial percentage. 

[00:26:22]  Akaash Singh 
 Way higher than we realized. 

[00:26:23]  Donald Trump 
 You look at Lincoln and Kennedy and this and that. 

[00:26:26]  Akaash Singh 
 Attempts Reagan. 

[00:26:27]  Donald Trump 
 You go through, uh, McKinley. 

[00:26:29]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yep. Garfield. 

[00:26:31]  Donald Trump 
 You look at a lot of people. I'm in a very dangerous, dangerous business. Profession. 

[00:26:36]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:26:37]  Donald Trump 
 I call it a profession. Yes, a dangerous profession. 

[00:26:40]  Andrew Schulz 
 I like that. 

[00:26:40]  Donald Trump 
 I'm sitting with you guys. You have a very nice, safe life. Me. So, no, if you said 5%, I. 

[00:26:45]  Andrew Schulz 
 Think he called a soft. 

[00:26:48]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah, but think of it. Five percent. That's a lot. 

[00:26:51]  Akaash Singh 
 That's high. 

[00:26:52]  Donald Trump 
 That's a lot. 

[00:26:53]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. I think even the attempts is something. 

[00:26:54]  Donald Trump 
 Like 25% attempts is getting into really crazy numbers. So, uh, people don't think of that. You run and you see, and then you win. And you're down. Pennsylvania, you're looking at everything. So you gotta. You're in a dangerous star. 

[00:27:08]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:27:09]  Donald Trump 
 And, uh. So it's one of those things I was saying before, though, that, you know, I do a thing called a weave, and there are those that are fair, that say, this guy is so genius. And then others would say, oh, he rambled. I don't ramble. If I saw the story, uh, what you do is you weave things, and you do it. 

[00:27:28]   
 You have to have certain things. You need an extraordinary memory because you have to come back to where you started. Yes. You always. But weave is only good. They would give you m. Credit for that. That's true. 

[00:27:36]  Andrew Schulz 
 You could go all the way over here and get back. 

[00:27:38]  Donald Trump 
 I could go so far, here or there, and I can come back to exactly where I started. Now, someday, when you don't come back to where you started, you're Biden. No, but the weave is the way when you're telling, like, a story. I was telling a story at a rally the other day in front of thousands of people, and I started off. 

[00:27:58]   
 And then you were weaving something in the story. I actually mentioned Air Force One. It was Air Force One. Was I mentioned Air Force One? And then I said, how? I got $1.6 billion off the price of Air Force One. So. But then you have to come back to the story. Where was Air Force One taken? 

[00:28:15]   
 So anyway, I do a weave. I call it the Weave. And some people think it's so genius. But the bad people, what they say is, you know, he was rambling. It's not a ramble. There's no rambling. 

[00:28:27]  Andrew Schulz 
 This is a weave. 

[00:28:28]  Donald Trump 
 This is a weave. Good name. I'm not sure that's another name. We had fake news we came up with lots of names, but, uh, the weave is. I think we should make the weave a part of that stable. 

[00:28:38]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah, you really weave answering my question twice. 

[00:28:41]  Andrew Schulz 
 Really? So I don't even want to know the answer anymore. 

[00:28:44]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah, I lost weave. I lost. 

[00:28:47]  Donald Trump 
 Let's weave back to his question, because this is where. This is where it started. We'll weave back to it. Um, so, uh, I sort of hate answering it because I don't want to give, uh, any false identities. I don't want to do anything having to do with creating something that isn't there. Uh, you would look at Iran. 

[00:29:10]   
 Iran has an open threat out for me. That's bad. And Biden, if he were a real president, if he were, uh, the kind of guy he should be, should say, if anybody shoots a former president who's now the leading candidate, even though he's leading against Democrats, uh, we will bomb that country into oblivion. 

[00:29:32]   
 Uh, and it would stop. And that's been said before with some people. You know, there have been people. I won't go into it, but there have been people that have been threatened in another party, even, uh, in the same party. It makes sense and probably happens pretty quickly, but in another party, you know, it's hard for them to cross the line to want to protect me, but it shouldn't be hard. 

[00:29:54]   
 Uh, other people have protected other people. And what you have to inform those people is if they do it, the country will be blown to smithereens. The entire country will be blown to smithereens, and those threats go away, because that's a really bad threat for a country. Forget about me. I'm an individual, but I represent something very important. 

[00:30:14]   
 That's a really terrible threat. So, I mean, there are others that, uh, could be in that category. Look, I took in hundreds of billions of dollars from China, uh, at a level that no president. No president took in anything. I had tariffs on. China took in hundreds of billions of dollars. They're still there that without me, they wouldn't have those tariffs on. 

[00:30:34]   
 So you could say, but no, I think Iran would be, uh, the one. 

[00:30:39]  Andrew Schulz 
 All right, guys, let's take a break for a second because, uh, we got to shout out the greatest law firm in America, Morgan and Morgan, America's largest personal injury law firm. For over 35 years, they've been fighting and winning for the people, just like you and me. They've won so much that they've racked up more than $20 billion in recoveries for their clients. 

[00:31:03]   
 That's right. Billion with a B. So when Life tries to slam you with an injury. It might be time to tap in to Morgan and Morgan. And because they've got your back, I'm excited to announce that they're offering one lucky listener $2,000 and two tickets to WWE's Royal Rumble. Now entering to win is easy. 

[00:31:23]   
 Let me tell you. All you have to do right now is text flagrant to for the people and follow the text prompts. Good luck. Maybe we'll see you there at Wrestlemania. Now let's get back to the show. 

[00:31:34]  Akaash Singh 
 All right, guys, I'm gonna do this ad read again because Miles really doesn't want me to and I want to add to his workload. You gotta know about CookUnity Man.

 That's all you gotta do. Cookuni.com flagrant and again, keep an eye out. Your boy might have a little, ah, something cooking. Let's get back to the show. 

[00:32:30]  Donald Trump 
 I was tough with other countries, but I got along very well with them. But you know, we were like, uh, we were like a pussycat. We were ripped off by every nation in the world. And some of the worst rippers were our so called allies. People that countries that we supposedly get along with us with, but they're the ones that took advantage of us on trade at a level like, I mean, I ended some of the dumbest trade deals I've ever seen and made them much better for the country. 

[00:32:55]   
 I mean, what difference does it make? I made, I made, I took a terrible trade deal, would make it a good trade deal, but like Japan, I redid the trade deal. South Korea, I did the trade. The, the deals. I went to Abby, uh, of Japan, I said Shinzo, he was assassinated. He was, he was as you probably. 

[00:33:13]   
 He was incredible, great man. He was a great leader for the people. They loved him. I said, shinzo, look, we can't do this. The trade deal is so bad. We're friends, but I have to renegotiate the trade deal. And he said to me, I knew that would happen. I said, why did you know? 

[00:33:31]   
 Because you're right. It's so one sided. Wow. He said, I knew you'd catch us. But they went through many presidents where Japan was as an example. They'll send us millions of cars. We're not allowed to send them any. They send this as their, their farm product. We were sending them practically nothing. It was like a one way. 

[00:33:50]   
 Everything was one way. And by the way, uh, virtually every. China was the worst. But there were many countries almost as bad. The European Union was almost as bad, in my opinion. It sounds nice. Oh, the European Union is so nice. They were ruthless in their trading. And I said to Angela, um, Merkel, how many Chevrolets do we have in the middle of Berlin? 

[00:34:11]   
 Why? I don't believe any. I said, you're right. And yet we take in the, you know, all of that. We take in, uh, Mercedes Benz, BMW and we take in all of this Volkswagen. We're taking in all of these millions and millions of cars. I see how many American cars are in the middle of uh, Munich or Berlin? 

[00:34:31]   
 And the answer is none. And I had things change around so, you know, you could say, I think that the answer would be at this moment, Iran. And I think they could catch him. And if we had a real president, which we don't. We don't have a real president. We have a man that, uh, is grossly inept and it's very dangerous because these guys are all at the top of their game. 

[00:34:55]   
 When you talk about President Xi and you talk about any one of the leaders in the world, Macron. And he's a smart guy, he's all for France. I mean he would take the shirt off your back uh, if you didn't know what you were doing. 

[00:35:09]  Andrew Schulz 
 So when you're with these guys, are these guys all sharks? 

[00:35:13]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. 

[00:35:13]  Andrew Schulz 
 And you can sense the energy immediately? 

[00:35:15]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. Not all of them, but, but some of them aren't sharks. 

[00:35:19]  Andrew Schulz 
 In terms, how are you assessing personality? 

[00:35:21]  Donald Trump 
 Okay. Well, I can tell you like, um, great Modi. India. Yeah, he's a friend of mine. He's great. He's the nicest. India. Yes. Oh, good. Well, I'll tell you. Do you like him or not? Yeah. 

[00:35:33]  Akaash Singh 
 Do you Like, I. I have family on both sides of it. I have family that loves everything and family. 

[00:35:37]  Donald Trump 
 I just. Don't you need him. Well, they had, you know, before him, they had. They were replacing him every year. It was very unstable. He came over. 

[00:35:46]  Akaash Singh 
 He's on a lot. 

[00:35:46]  Donald Trump 
 He's great. He's a friend of mine. But on the outside he looks like he's your father. He's the nicest, total killer. M. Because I asked him. 

[00:35:56]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[00:35:57]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, we're talking. I did. We dated a thing called Howdy Modi in Houston, Texas. And they filled up the stadium. It was me and him. We filled up the stadium. It was beautiful. Like, ah, 80,000 people was going crazy. Now we're walking around today. Maybe I wouldn't be as. Maybe you wouldn't do that. 

[00:36:15]   
 But we're walking, we're walking in the middle, waving to everybody anyway. But we have a very good relationship. He's the nicest human being. But we had a couple of occasions where somebody was threatening India. I said, let me help. I'm very good with those people. Let me help. I will do it. I will do it and I will do anything necessary. 

[00:36:39]   
 We've defeated them for hundreds of years. Wow. Uh, he was talking about a certain country. You can probably guess the country, I can't fathom which. You know the country. 

[00:36:48]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 

[00:36:49]  Donald Trump 
 But I said, whoa, what happened there? 

[00:36:53]  Andrew Schulz 
 What happened? 

[00:36:54]  Donald Trump 
 So, no, they're all tough and they're all smart. Uh, and some are very good people. He's a good person. There's some good people and some aren't good people, but they're all at the top of their game. And we have her, who is now more important than him. Hm. I guess. Although he's still president of this country and we're talking about nuclear war and he's not capable. 

[00:37:13]   
 He doesn't even know what it is. He said yesterday when they talked about should they hit Iran's nuclear. No, no, you shouldn't do that. 

[00:37:22]  Andrew Schulz 
 No. 

[00:37:23]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, it's sort of just the opposite because the nuclear is the biggest threat we have in the world today. It's not global warming where the oceans are rising one eighth of an inch in the next 500 years. The threat that we have, the biggest threat is nuclear war. Yeah. 

[00:37:41]  Andrew Schulz 
 You seem concerned about that. 

[00:37:42]  Donald Trump 
 I am. Because it only takes one. Um, I am. 

[00:37:46]  Akaash Singh 
 Very true. 

[00:37:46]  Donald Trump 
 There are five countries now that have capability and soon they'll have more and we shouldn't let there be more. And I was at a point. Very good. Despite the Russia, Russia, Russia hoax, it was A total hoax. And we were totally exonerated and everything else. I could have told them that the first day. 

[00:38:03]   
 But that causes, you know, a lot of problems. A lot of problems. And they're a big nuclear power. We were close, uh, to a deal for getting rid of nuclear weapons. It would be so good for all countries. 

[00:38:16]  Andrew Schulz 
 Or just Russia. 

[00:38:17]  Donald Trump 
 We were talking about Russia ourselves and China. 

[00:38:21]  Andrew Schulz 
 Oh, wow. 

[00:38:22]  Donald Trump 
 And we would then bring everyone else into it. And so you all, you all would. 

[00:38:27]  Andrew Schulz 
 Get rid of your nuclear capabilities. 

[00:38:29]  Donald Trump 
 Denuclearize. Yes, we were going to get totally denuclearized because it's too powerful. 

[00:38:36]  Akaash Singh 
 It's too much. 

[00:38:37]  Donald Trump 
 You know, my uncle, Dr. John Trump, was the country doctor. Yeah, Dr. John Trump. Well, he was a nuclear doctor, actually. He was. He was at mit. He's the longest serving professor at mit. He passed away. Great guy. He was a brilliant guy, a brilliant scientist. And he used to tell me, he said, a long time ago, he'd say, donald, uh, someday it's very dangerous, somebody will be able to carry a small briefcase into a building in New York and blow up the entire city. 

[00:39:08]   
 I said, you gotta be kidding me, Uncle John, that will never happen. Uh, he was like a really brilliant guy. He was there for, I think, 41 years. He's the longest serving professor in the history of mit. Oh, wow. So when I understand physics and when I understand things well, they say, how come you. 

[00:39:25]   
 I have. There's good genetics, you know, I'm a believer. Are you guys believers in that? Were your parents funny? Were they comedians? 

[00:39:32]  Andrew Schulz 
 Uh, yeah, My mom's side was, uh, is Scottish. 

[00:39:35]  Akaash Singh 
 Fellow Scottish. 

[00:39:36]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. 

[00:39:37]  Andrew Schulz 
 Scottish women tend to be, you know, my mom. Yeah, I was gonna ask you about that. Yeah. 

[00:39:40]  Donald Trump 
 And she was great. 

[00:39:42]  Andrew Schulz 
 Which. Is that where you get your humor? Yeah. 

[00:39:44]  Donald Trump 
 Well, I'll tell you what. England, at the time, they fought them for a thousand years trying to get them under toe. They couldn't do it. 

[00:39:51]  Andrew Schulz 
 They couldn't do it. 

[00:39:52]  Donald Trump 
 They're very tough. That reminds me of my mother, come to think of it, my mother was. My mother was great. She was, uh, Stornoway. 

[00:39:59]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:40:00]  Donald Trump 
 The Hebrides. Right. That's, you know, that's really serious Scottish. 

[00:40:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:40:04]  Donald Trump 
 But she was great. Um, but it is true, when you see Braveheart, that was one of many times, you know, for hundreds of years. 

[00:40:11]  Andrew Schulz 
 Did you watch that with your mom by any chance? 

[00:40:12]  Donald Trump 
 No, I didn't. I didn't get to. I'll tell you, I saw Braveheart. I think Mel Gibson is a very good guy. I've met him. Yeah, A, uh, number of Times Good guy. But out there, that was super Mel Gibson in his prime. 

[00:40:25]  Akaash Singh 
 Oh, yeah, yeah. 

[00:40:26]  Donald Trump 
 And I was on a plane, and there was absolutely nothing to do. It was one of these planes that you couldn't make calls you couldn't do. And they had tapes. 

[00:40:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 That's all planes for us. 

[00:40:36]  Donald Trump 
 And they showed me. Like, they showed. No, but they showed me. They showed me. Sir, we have 20 tapes. And I looked at the tapes and they were all. And this was like 20 years after it was made. This was probably six years ago. I never saw Braveheart. 

[00:40:50]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay. 

[00:40:51]  Donald Trump 
 And they showed me a tape. I say, all right, let's put that one on. And, uh, within about four minutes, I said, this may be the greatest move I've ever seen. 

[00:41:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 Incredible. 

[00:41:00]  Akaash Singh 
 It's incredible. 

[00:41:01]  Donald Trump 
 Within four minutes. No, I'm not a Braveheart fan. But you've seen it. 

[00:41:05]  Andrew Schulz 
 Oh, dude, I saw it with my mom. 

[00:41:07]  Donald Trump 
 She was emotional for, like a week. I wish I saw it with my mother. But it was. 

[00:41:11]  Andrew Schulz 
 Was that your Braveheart moment? Like, after getting shot, when you stood up? 

[00:41:15]  Donald Trump 
 You don't think of that in those moments. You do what you do. 

[00:41:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 Thank God you weren't thinking about Mel Gibson. 

[00:41:21]  Donald Trump 
 Nah. But he's. He's. But he was. When he. In primetime, he was unbelievable. I mean, at that. You know, his look, his way, his. You couldn't have had a better guy playing it. Um, but it was. That was a great movie, so. But it is true. England and, you know, at the time, for a thousand years, I mean, they'd have. 

[00:41:40]   
 And they'd have the battles with thousands, or once a thousand. And they run at each other. Tell me that. I mean, you think that takes guts? They run at each other? 

[00:41:48]  Andrew Schulz 
 I think so. 

[00:41:49]  Donald Trump 
 Knowing they're gonna pretty much die. Right. 

[00:41:51]  Andrew Schulz 
 The Roman army built walls to keep out the Scots when they were up in age. 

[00:41:55]  Donald Trump 
 They were afraid of the Scottish. They were afraid the Scottish people. They're tough people. They're good people, actually. They're very great people. Uh, but they're good fighters. 

[00:42:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 But your mom was funny. 

[00:42:04]  Donald Trump 
 She was funny. 

[00:42:05]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, that's what I hear. 

[00:42:07]  Donald Trump 
 I hear she had a great sense of humor. And my father loved my mother. You know, they were married for. 

[00:42:12]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, polar opposites, though. 

[00:42:15]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. My father was German. Uh, serious. Serious, but good. He was a tough guy, but he had a good heart. When he walked down the street, and they'll say, we could walk down the street, he would always give something to. If there was somebody that had problems. He used to have the can and a pencil. 

[00:42:33]   
 You know, the can out um, my father would always put $100 in that thing. He'd always do it. Now, he had a tremendous heart, but he was a tough guy. He was tough. It was, he was just like. No, nonsense. It was firm. My mother was a woman. And I don't know how your mother felt, but she loved the queen. 

[00:42:53]   
 Don't forget. The queen was, you know, the queen was great. Oh, would she have liked. Because the queen honored me before she died. She honored me as the president in Buckingham palace. And there's nobody that does it like the English. There's nobody that has that, you know, the pomp and ceremony. But, uh, my mother would love that. 

[00:43:14]   
 Your, um, mother. So did she feel strongly about, like the royalty? 

[00:43:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 I think they're obsessed with the royal family out there. Like, in general. 

[00:43:21]  Donald Trump 
 Your mother, your mother would have been. 

[00:43:23]  Andrew Schulz 
 She was really into all the pageantry. For sure. 

[00:43:25]  Donald Trump 
 My mother was. 

[00:43:26]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:43:27]  Donald Trump 
 My mother thought the queen was great. Yeah, she thought, uh, queen was so wonderful. 

[00:43:32]  Andrew Schulz 
 Some of my family hates the English, though. 

[00:43:33]  Donald Trump 
 No, I know. 

[00:43:34]  Andrew Schulz 
 There's some history there. 

[00:43:35]  Donald Trump 
 I know, I know. But. But, uh, a lot of the. It's a hard breakup, you know, they tried to break up Scotland from, From, um, the rest of the empire, so to speak, because they got some oil and, uh, it made it by about like a half a point. Yeah, they kept it together. 

[00:43:51]   
 So I hope it stays together. I hope it always stays together. But, uh, England, as they say, because it used to be England, but England never could. They just. And they were bigger and they had more people. They could never finish it off by capturing Scotland. So it's really sort of. 

[00:44:08]  Andrew Schulz 
 They ended up having to marry together. 

[00:44:10]  Donald Trump 
 They married. They became sort of subsidiaries, right? 

[00:44:14]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yes. Yeah. 

[00:44:15]  Donald Trump 
 But it was great. That's interesting. With your mother. 

[00:44:17]  Andrew Schulz 
 Guys, that little chunk of this scintillating conversation with, uh, President Trump has been brought to you by the, uh, great company Steak partnered with us, uh, here on flagrant. You know, steak is, uh, where you're going to do your gambling. It's where you're going to go do your gambling. 

[00:44:34]  Akaash Singh 
 You can't even gamble in the election. 

[00:44:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 Who do you think you can do that? You can't. To which we would not try to influence in any way, shape or form. Okay. So you make those, uh, judgments on your own. But, uh, you can also gamble on sports. You can on lots of different things. Uh, you can do it over there with stake. 

[00:44:50]   
 And when you use our promo code flagrant, you are going to get your sign up bonus when you do that. So you can go do that Right now, we appreciate you tapping in, locking in, and when you do your gamble, you're doing with our partner stake. Thank you so much. Let's get back to the show. 

[00:45:04]   
 Okay, so the humor. So the humor comes from there. Maybe some other things, because I think that's one thing that there's bipartisan support for you is even the people that are like, I don't like that guy will go, hey, he's funny, though. He says funny things. Have you heard this before? 

[00:45:19]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah, I've heard it. 

[00:45:19]  Andrew Schulz 
 It's very disarming humor. 

[00:45:21]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. But in my business, in what I do, if you don't have humor, you won't even survive. 

[00:45:27]  Andrew Schulz 
 Why is that? 

[00:45:28]  Donald Trump 
 Because I think you have to have. You have to have a light side. I see a lot of dark things. I see horrible things. I think. I see things that are bad. I see political things that are hard. I mean, we have a lot of corrupt people in this country, and I see it. 

[00:45:40]   
 And horrible, um, corrupt people. We have people that, you know, I. I really do. We have, uh. From the inside, we have really bad people, and outside, we do. But I think the outside is. But I think it's easier to handle China. If you have a smart president who knows, you know, some things, if you had a. 

[00:45:59]   
 Who knows how to deal, let's say, yeah, you're not going to have a problem with Russia. Russia would have never attacked Ukraine. If I were president, I used to talk to Putin about it. I got along great with him. They would have never, ever done it. I ended his pipeline, you know, I ended the pipeline called Nord Stream 2. 

[00:46:17]   
 Nobody ever heard of Nord Stream 2. 

[00:46:19]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, yeah. 

[00:46:20]  Donald Trump 
 I said, are you building a pipeline going to Europe? Yeah. I said, I don't think so. 

[00:46:25]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:46:25]  Donald Trump 
 And I told. I, um. You know, got them together. I said, you mean we're defending you from Russia and you're paying billions of dollars a month for oil? It's not going to work that way. And I ended it. And then when Biden came in, he gave it back. The biggest project they ever had. 

[00:46:40]   
 Right. He gave it back. And then everyone said, uh, Trump is friends with Putin. And so Putin would say, if you're my friend, I'd hate like hell to see you as my enemy. Think of it. And I put a lot of sanctions on, but I got along with Russia. I get along with pretty much everybody. 

[00:46:56]   
 Actually, the tougher they were, the better I did with them. That's a good thing, not a bad thing, because the other ones are easier to handle. But the ones that I got along with. And they're also the bigger threats. I got along very well with President Xi of China, but when Covid came, I was not happy with him because it came out of the labs. 

[00:47:16]   
 I mean, they released it from accidentally, I believe. You know, a lot of people would say, uh, it wasn't an accident, but they got hit very hard. They got hit as hard as anybody in the world. It was late. It was belated. It was a late hit. Uh, but when Covid came, uh, I made an unbelievable trade deal with China. 

[00:47:35]   
 They have to buy $50 billion of our product every year. Nobody could believe I got that deal done. I don't even talk about it because of COVID I don't even talk about it. That deal is unbelievable. And what's happened now? Our farmers have been hit because Biden hasn't pressed them to honor the deal. 

[00:47:54]   
 You know, I used to. Every day I'd get up, how much did China buy today, Sir? They bought. I'd call them up and say, you're behind. You have to buy 50 billion. Do you think Biden does that? Biden's sleeping. But over the last week, I have what we talk about. Funny or sad? 

[00:48:10]   
 I think it's more sad than funny. He has one ability I don't have. He sleeps. He can sleep. This guy goes on a beach, and he lays down on one of those, you know, six ounce. They weigh six ounces, and you can't lift it. They're meant for. They're meant for children, young people, and old people to lift aluminum, you know, hollowed aluminum. 

[00:48:38]   
 They weigh very little. And he can't lift. And somebody convinced him he looks good in a bathing suit. And when you're 82, typically, bathing suits aren't going to make you look great. You're not going to be enhanced. All right? It's just one of those things. I can't be sure about that. But, uh, typically, you know, depends what he's packing. 

[00:48:55]  Andrew Schulz 
 He could. 

[00:48:56]  Donald Trump 
 I don't know what the hell he's packing, but I don't want to. And I don't want to know either. I don't know. But he has an ability to fall asleep while on camera. He can lie down on one of those things, and in minutes, he's stone cold out. 

[00:49:11]  Andrew Schulz 
 How does he do it? 

[00:49:12]  Donald Trump 
 He's got cameras because he's the president. So they have cameras on him, and then they show him sleeping on the beach. You'll never see me sleeping in front of camera. 

[00:49:20]  Andrew Schulz 
 How do we get you better at that? Like, what can we do how do we work on that as a country? 

[00:49:25]  Donald Trump 
 As a country, yeah. We gotta save our country. Look, we are, we are a nation in decline, whether you like it or not. 

[00:49:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 I hate hearing that. 

[00:49:36]  Donald Trump 
 I know, I hate hearing that. 

[00:49:37]  Andrew Schulz 
 That hurts me. That hurts me as a proud American. I. 

[00:49:40]  Donald Trump 
 Well, what you like though is but we're gonna be greater than ever before. 

[00:49:43]  Andrew Schulz 
 So that's, I think the messaging that I think. Yeah, I think that's really nice to hear. 

[00:49:47]  Donald Trump 
 Well, that's my ultimate message. But you can't avoid the fact that we've allowed 21 million people into our country in the last, uh, three and a half years. And I don't know your persuasion, I don't know if you guys are liberal or what, but nobody can be happy with 21 million people openly walking into a place we don't know. 

[00:50:04]   
 And it was released last week that 13,000 of those people are uh, murderers. 13,099. 13,000 of those people, yeah. Are in prison, they're incarcerated for murder and they let them out. 

[00:50:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 I think you have support on this though. I think every. 

[00:50:20]  Donald Trump 
 Tremendous support. Regardless, I think I'll let you know, let you know on November 6th if I have support. But after the election, November, the most important day. 

[00:50:31]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, I think people are agreeing. They want a strong border. I think, I don't think that's an issue that's like tearing the country apart. But I do think that there is something. 

[00:50:38]  Donald Trump 
 There are some people that want to open and they're either, but they're like. 

[00:50:42]  Andrew Schulz 
 Politicians that are getting some sort of reinforcement through this. The average American I don't think is going to hate open border. 

[00:50:49]  Donald Trump 
 I think only a person that hates our country actually maybe it's a down deep hatred can want open borders. So we took in 20, more than 21 million people in the last three and a half years. And we have no idea where they even come from. 

[00:51:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 Huh. 

[00:51:03]  Donald Trump 
 They're terrorists, they're drug dealers, you know, in Venezuela. And it's not just South America, but take Venezuela. They've taken their criminals off the streets of Caracas, which was a very dangerous city. You couldn't walk across the street in Caracas and get a loaf of bread right now. It's a safe city. Their crime is down 72%. 

[00:51:22]   
 They've taken all of their criminals, almost all of them, and they brought them into the United States and dumped them. Um, that's not ending well. You know where some of them went to Aurora in Colorado and they took over the town. They took it over the whole town pretty much. Yeah. You Know how they took it over with guns. 

[00:51:41]   
 If they went into the real estate business like me, I had to go to a bank and borrow. Yeah, they went in with, with guns, MK47s or they went in with. 

[00:51:49]  Andrew Schulz 
 They went in would have been so much easier. 

[00:51:50]  Donald Trump 
 Weapons like nobody's ever seen before. You know, they went in with military style weapons. They've taken it over. 

[00:51:58]  Andrew Schulz 
 But I think most people on board with, with deporting any illegal that has committed a crime, like I think there's bipartisan support of that. I think the tricky thing comes. And honestly I have empathy. Like you're a business owner. There's been people, I'm not trying to out you, but like there's been people I'm sure that might not have had like legal citizenship that have maybe worked in various businesses. 

[00:52:17]   
 And it's like, you know, I've definitely been taken care of as a kid by people that weren't legal babysitters and stuff. So there are people that maybe would like a path to citizenship that I have a lot of empathy. 

[00:52:28]  Donald Trump 
 You have to start with the criminals. 

[00:52:29]  Andrew Schulz 
 I agreed. 

[00:52:29]  Donald Trump 
 Okay, look. 

[00:52:31]  Andrew Schulz 
 Mhm. But maybe, but maybe we can. 

[00:52:32]  Donald Trump 
 It's very tough. 

[00:52:33]  Andrew Schulz 
 Maybe we can open our hearts a little bit to the people who are trying to be good, hardworking America. 

[00:52:37]  Donald Trump 
 M. You know what's going to happen. You're going to be in the midst of this now. You know, Dwight Eisenhower was sort of a moderate general. Eisenhower. Did you know that they had 8% generals? President of the United States? 8% were generals. 92% were politicians. And then you had Trump. See, that's a wave, you know, we go off. 

[00:52:57]  Andrew Schulz 
 I like that. Because now where are we weaving to? I'm into this. 

[00:53:00]  Donald Trump 
 No, no, think of it because we're talking about generals. And then you get back on to the general. 

[00:53:04]  Akaash Singh 
 There you go. 

[00:53:05]  Donald Trump 
 What I was going to say is that Eisenhower. 

[00:53:08]  Andrew Schulz 
 I like the play for the week. 

[00:53:10]  Donald Trump 
 No, it's good though, isn't it? Great. We go into it, we mentioned Eisenhower and then I say he was a general. 8% generals, 92%. And now you go back. Okay, it's part of the weave. Yeah. Then you go back. No, you got to be sharp. If you're not sharp, you're dead. Think of it. 

[00:53:28]   
 No, but think of it. So we have M. 92% and 8% nobody. No Admirals and no business people until me. So now we have me. I'm one. 

[00:53:37]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:53:38]  Donald Trump 
 So I'm um. 

[00:53:38]  Andrew Schulz 
 And then maybe things change after that. Okay, here's. 

[00:53:41]  Donald Trump 
 No, I think it will change. There'll never be another business person that ever does this. 

[00:53:45]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay, here's the. 

[00:53:46]  Donald Trump 
 Because I've been treated so badly that I think that no person of success. Don't forget, my whole life was deals, deals, deals, deals, deals, deals. Most guys are stiffs. 

[00:53:55]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yes. 

[00:53:55]  Donald Trump 
 Like they'll run for office. There's no deal. There's no nothing. You can't get yourself in trouble much. 

[00:54:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:54:01]  Donald Trump 
 You can be a crooked politician, which some are. 

[00:54:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:54:03]  Donald Trump 
 But basically, I do so many deals. I do hundreds of thousands of pages of documents a year, you know, as I'm, um. When I'm really in the mood. Right. 

[00:54:12]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yes. 

[00:54:13]  Donald Trump 
 And if they find one page, I got myself a problem politically. 

[00:54:16]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[00:54:17]  Donald Trump 
 Okay. Look at it. They went after me for years on taxes. 

[00:54:20]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:54:21]  Donald Trump 
 Years. 

[00:54:22]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:54:22]  Donald Trump 
 They went to the United States Supreme Court. I gave them tens of thousands of pages. And you never heard about it again. 

[00:54:30]  Andrew Schulz 
 Well, that is what often happens, which is probably incredibly frustrating, which is lobbying an allegation. Um, and then when it's proven to be false, they just move on. 

[00:54:39]  Donald Trump 
 Oh, they don't even write about it. I called the New York Times on something. I was right. And they said, are you going to do. Yeah. The Russian hoax. 

[00:54:46]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. Yeah. 

[00:54:46]  Donald Trump 
 Well, I'm suing Pulitzer. You don't know this. They got a Pulitzer Prize for the New York Times. For the hoax. Washington Post. Yeah. For the hoax. They got the Pulitzer Prize. So the writers got Pulitzer Prizes for their brilliant coverage of the Russia, Russia, Russia hoaxing. It turned out to be. Right. So, yeah, we wrote a letter to the Pulitzer Prize. 

[00:55:07]   
 Right. You know, the committee, it's a big foundation. 

[00:55:09]  Andrew Schulz 
 Ah. 

[00:55:10]  Donald Trump 
 And we said, we. It's a lawsuit that's going on right now. And we said. We demanded you take back the Pulitzer Prizes. We demand a, uh, apology. 

[00:55:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[00:55:18]  Donald Trump 
 Because you're actually, by leaving them, you're, you know, you're sort of saying it happened and it didn't happen. Everybody now is. 

[00:55:23]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, you're giving the lie. 

[00:55:25]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah. So I sued them. Uh, they said, well, we. We did what we did. We're not. Okay. That's okay. That's all right. So I sued them. And they've got themselves a big problem now. And this suit's moving along, and I think we're gonna win that suit easily because they gave people Pulitzer Prizes that were wrong. 

[00:55:42]   
 You know, we should get the Pulitzer Prizes equivalent, if you could. Guys like Sean Hannity, guys like, you know that there were numerous of them that. I mean, not as many as the fake news as the very liberal media, but we had tremendous. John Solomon, he's a great writer. So many people knew that that was a hoax. 

[00:56:01]   
 They should get prizes. I don't know, Pulitzer Prizes. Because you don't get Pulitzer Prizes to a guy on television. You can't get, in theory, a Pulitzer Prize. But you had a lot of people that got that right. They got nothing. So we sued Pulitzer on the basis that they should, uh, absolutely take, uh, that prize back. 

[00:56:18]   
 And I said, by not taking it back, you're trying to say that it actually happened. You know, in a way, I'm saying you're defaming me because by you not taking those prizes back, you're actually saying it happened. 

[00:56:29]  Andrew Schulz 
 Take a break for a second. Because, uh, some of y'all need to upgrade your wallet. Some of y'all don't. Because last year you scooped up the flagrant extra wallet. Okay?

You could steal it, but then give it back to them. Be like, yo, I don't want these problems because you could follow me to my house.

[00:58:54]  Donald Trump 
 Are we doing so far? 

[00:58:55]  Andrew Schulz 
 Uh, you're doing great. 

[00:58:56]  Akaash Singh 
 You're doing amazing. They're making us wrap up. 

[00:58:58]  Andrew Schulz 
 We want you for a long time. 

[00:58:59]  Donald Trump 
 I've been into my people, you know, I do have other things, but I know you're busy. How interesting is this, though? 

[00:59:04]  Andrew Schulz 
 Uh, see, this is the fun stuff. 

[00:59:06]  Donald Trump 
 He's a good influencer. 

[00:59:08]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah, he's a good kid. 

[00:59:09]  Donald Trump 
 You know, I asked him, I said, alex, uh, let me ask you a question. 

[00:59:12]  Andrew Schulz 
 Sure. 

[00:59:12]  Donald Trump 
 And I didn't. I wasn't. 

[00:59:14]  Akaash Singh 
 You're not. You're not telling him he's got time now, who is? 

[00:59:16]  Donald Trump 
 Give. Give him a little more time. What the hell? Can I override Alex? I don't know. Yeah, unlike Biden, he can't. I can't. I can. I can say, alex, I'm doing it. Thank you, sir. No, Biden, they turned the cameras off with this guy. Do you ever see it? The camera, the lights go off everywhere? 

[00:59:33]   
 Because D.C. he's in deep trouble. We're in no trouble. But I'll tell you what I asked Alex. He's an influencer. You know, He's a very. He's a big name influencer. I don't know if he's in this league. I don't know who the hell. But I said to him, knowing nothing about influencers, I said, who is the biggest of all the influencers, sir? 

[00:59:52]   
 That's the easiest question you've ever asked me. Who is it you, sir? Uh, it's true. I said, you. I never thought of it. He said, you're the biggest. You have hundreds of millions of people. You have more people than anybody else by far. You know, before they took away, I went from having 280 million on Facebook and Twitter and, uh, Instagram, uh, the three of them combined. 

[01:00:15]   
 280. I think I was, I think I was number one because Zuckerberg told me that he came to the White House. He said, congratulations, you're number one on Facebook, you know, So I went from that to having nobody. Uh, I went. That was like cold turkey, right? You call that cold turkey? Like, yeah, yeah, that would be like if we didn't do business with China one day. 

[01:00:35]   
 I said, no more business with China. You go cold turkey, right? And I went. And I said, boy, but I had a lot to say. This was after the presidency, of course. You know, they do it after the presidency, during the presidency. They're a little bit very nice. But anyway, but they. I went totally, totally off. 

[01:00:53]   
 I had nobody and I had all these ideas and I couldn't get the word out. And I had some good thoughts and people wanted to hear my thoughts. And I did a thing called, uh, save America. Just a, uh. And essentially it was like the old fashioned. You guys are far too young. 

[01:01:09]   
 In the old days, what we did, we didn't have tweeting or we didn't have Truth. Truth is doing great, by the way. Would you please use Truth? I love Truth. Use Truth, everybody. It's my voice. But I also use X. I also use X. But I went from, I went from having all these people and I did an old fashioned press release. 

[01:01:28]   
 It's called. We used to go to press release. And somebody would write up something and. 

[01:01:33]  Andrew Schulz 
 Send it to all the three others. 

[01:01:34]  Donald Trump 
 Started doing it, Save America. And they get, they got longer and better and longer and started doing it. And man, I had millions of people now. Um, nobody else could do that because, you know, if somebody puts out a press release, it just doesn't work out too well. But I did it and it did well. 

[01:01:51]   
 And then I did Truth. And, uh, I'm very good friends with Elon and we owe Elon a lot for what he's done with X. And I use x2. I use x2. Um, but my voice is on Truth. And it's done really well. I mean, if I want to get something out, I put it on Truth and everybody picks it up. 

[01:02:09]   
 You know, that's the thing. 

[01:02:10]  Andrew Schulz 
 You put it there and then you see it. 

[01:02:11]  Donald Trump 
 No, it's picked up all over the place. It's picked up. I mean, I could be on anything I want, but I put it out on Truth and it just gets picked up all over the place. So it's been very good. Uh, but he said I was the number one influencer. See the weave? 

[01:02:24]   
 The weave is great. 

[01:02:25]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay, question, Question. Okay. You've got, uh, your son, Baron. 

[01:02:28]  Donald Trump 
 Do you think I'm the number one influencer? 

[01:02:30]  Andrew Schulz 
 I think it's it. I think it's Rogan. I think it's Rogan. You and Kim, uh, Kardashian, like, Kim Kardashian influences the shape of women's bodies and faces. Like, you see so many. They're literal shape of human beings. 

[01:02:45]  Donald Trump 
 Do they want to look like her? 

[01:02:47]  Andrew Schulz 
 They want to look like her. So once we start seeing dudes want to look like you, and I see young Jack over there. I think he's trying to do it. 

[01:02:54]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[01:02:55]  Andrew Schulz 
 You're TikTok. 

[01:02:56]  Donald Trump 
 TikTok Jack. 

[01:02:56]  Andrew Schulz 
 Tick tock. 

[01:02:58]  Donald Trump 
 Tell me TikTok. You know, this is a little new world. I call him. His name is Jack. I call him TikTok Jack. I'm good with names, you know. You are. You're very good at Pocahontas. Yeah, we have names. 

[01:03:09]  Andrew Schulz 
 What about. And there was. Tampon Tim was good. 

[01:03:12]  Donald Trump 
 What about with Tampon Tim? It's hard to say. Yeah. 

[01:03:15]  Akaash Singh 
 In other words, it's a mouthful. 

[01:03:17]  Donald Trump 
 It's a lot Tampon. And you can't stutter it through when you fall. It's really a lousy word to say. 

[01:03:24]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:03:25]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, but it's quite accurate. Right. There are some, uh. Like, uh, Comrade Kamala. It's a little hard to say. She's comrade, um, because she's obviously a communist. She's horrible. So I call her comrade. Yeah. 

[01:03:39]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:03:39]  Donald Trump 
 And it's not bad, but when you put the names together. Yeah, it's a little. You gotta be able to pume, but you gotta be able to put it out there. But we have a lot of good. A lot of them I can't go into with you because some of my best. Some of my best ones are from the Republican primaries. 

[01:03:59]   
 Oh. 

[01:03:59]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[01:04:00]  Donald Trump 
 They're all friends of mine now. 

[01:04:01]  Andrew Schulz 
 Oh, no, you gotta be nice. 

[01:04:02]  Donald Trump 
 So I. 

[01:04:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 What about Mike Pence? You got anything for Mike Pence? 

[01:04:05]  Donald Trump 
 Well, it's a shame because, uh, he and I had a very good relationship. 

[01:04:10]  Akaash Singh 
 Hanging, um, out somewhere. 

[01:04:11]  Donald Trump 
 He couldn't cross the line of doing what was right, in my opinion. Some people would disagree with that, but he had the right to go and put them before the legislatures and have them reassess because they found out a lot of bad things. And he had a lawyer that said he didn't have that right, but he did have that right. 

[01:04:29]   
 And you know why we found out that that was true? Because they changed the law after the election so that he couldn't do what I said he could do. 

[01:04:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:04:36]  Donald Trump 
 Okay. They changed the law so that a vice president could no longer do what I said he could do. So, in other words, I turned out to be right. But, uh, it's a shame. We had a very good relationship for 99.9% of the thing. 

[01:04:51]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:04:52]  Donald Trump 
 And, you know, I think he's a good man. I think he's good. Unfortunately. Um, I wish you would have had the stamina, uh, maybe courage, maybe both, to go further, because we have to have honest elections in our country, and if we're afraid to challenge an election, we're in big trouble. You know, they say if you. 

[01:05:14]   
 They've challenged elections. The Democrats. Look at Maxine Waters. How dare that. You know, they've challenged Stacey Abrams. Um, almost all of the Democrats challenge. 

[01:05:24]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:05:25]  Donald Trump 
 But when we challenge, they say he's a threat to democracy. 

[01:05:28]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:05:28]  Donald Trump 
 These are con artists, and they're very bad for our country. 

[01:05:31]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:05:32]  Donald Trump 
 So I'm gonna weed them out. I'm gonna weed them out. I'll do it in honor of you. 

[01:05:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay, so tell me this. So tell me this situation. Okay. Um, Barron is 18. He's handsome, he's tall, he's rich, he's. 

[01:05:44]  Donald Trump 
 Got the whole bowl. 

[01:05:45]  Andrew Schulz 
 He's unleashed in New York City. Are you sure you want to reverse Roe v. Wade now? I mean, maybe give them a few years, you know? 

[01:05:55]  Donald Trump 
 Well, you know, it's up to the states now. It's up to the states because I have, and I believe in exceptions and all of the different things. 

[01:06:01]  Andrew Schulz 
 You've been vocal about that. 

[01:06:02]  Donald Trump 
 I've been very vocal. Would you try to influence. I think a lot of people agree with me. You know, it was very, very strong, very, very tough. And Republicans were going to lose a lot of elections having to do with a lot of other things, too, because there are many issues. We have the border, we have this. 

[01:06:17]   
 We have wars, we have everything. 

[01:06:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:06:19]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, and Roe v. Wade was always about getting it back to the states. And then people started talking about the Number of weeks. And this. That all these. But nobody wanted. No legal scholar, no Democrat, no Republican, liberal, conservative. Nobody wanted it in the federal government. It shouldn't be in the federal government. 

[01:06:36]   
 And the legal scholars. It was abhorrent. They didn't want it, and they didn't want it in the federal government. And it was in the federal government. I know you said, sorry, what we did is. Right. What we did is, uh, we moved it back to the states and a vote of the people, and now they're voting. 

[01:06:52]   
 Ohio voted a very liberal. You know, Ohio. I won Ohio by a lot. But they voted, and it's up to them. Okay. I do believe in exceptions. Life of the mother and incest. If your daughter's raped by somebody, uh, let's say he's from a prison someplace and he's killed people and everything else. 

[01:07:15]   
 Absolutely. You have to be able to do. There are some people, and I think that group is smaller and smaller when they realize what's going on. But there are some people that, uh. Under no circumstances can you do. I don't happen to agree. Ronald Reagan didn't agree. But what has happened is it's now back in the states where it belongs, and the states are moving along and they're approving things. 

[01:07:39]   
 Some conservative and some liberal. 

[01:07:42]  Andrew Schulz 
 Uh, there are some places. My wife and I had a baby through ivf, and you've been very supportive of ivf. 

[01:07:49]  Donald Trump 
 I was, totally. 

[01:07:50]  Andrew Schulz 
 I really love that you said that you guys were gonna be right from the beginning, and I would love to get the refund or whatever once that happens. 

[01:07:56]  Donald Trump 
 But I actually said we want babies in our country, and we do. Yeah. 

[01:08:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 But there are some people using that reversal of Roe v. Wade to kind, uh, of attack the legality of ivf. And to me, it's like, that's heartbreaking. 

[01:08:10]  Donald Trump 
 These are crooked politicians. These are politicians. Now, uh, I'll give you an example. I came out when it first came up, and it started in Alabama, where a judge ruled that you couldn't do ivf. And all clinics all over Alabama was going to shut down, Were going to be shut down. And I wasn't an expert on ivf, but I have common sense. 

[01:08:31]   
 You know, we're the party of common sense. And some women called me, and actually, Katie Britt called me the senator from Alabama, who's really a young, good politician, smart, great husband, who was a football player, great family. She called me up, she said, sir, women have come to me and almost attacked me, and they're my best friends that the judge shut down ivf. 

[01:08:54]   
 He's a very, you know, conservative judge, and he shut down ivf. And I said, let's explain it. Tell me. And she told me. I said, no, it's a great thing. It's helping women have babies. And she didn't know her friends were all going through ivf. 

[01:09:11]  Andrew Schulz 
 It's so much more common than people realize. 

[01:09:13]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah, but they don't talk about it. You know, let's say somebody's. I mean, I understand nobody. I never had big discussions. I know this. If you're a woman and you're going through, you're not going to be telling Katie Britt, and you're not going to be telling your friends, hey, I'm going through ivf. 

[01:09:26]   
 Some will and some won't. Yeah, but she didn't know anything about her friends, and they were good friends of hers. She said, they're literally attacking me. I said, well, what is it? After about five minutes, I'm a quick study. I said, that's a great thing. And I came out within 45 minutes of the decision. 

[01:09:45]   
 I came out strongly in favor on behalf of the Republican Party. And I have calls from senators saying, thank you, sir. You saved my political career. Because they might have come out, saved their family, too. But here's what does happen, which is really. We get calls that just the other day that this total lying politician that's running that ruined San Francisco. 

[01:10:09]   
 She destroyed San Francisco with her very liberal policies, and she destroyed the state. Newsom. No, it's not. It's her, but Gavin Newsom. I call him M. Gavin Newscom. Gavin Newsom. 

[01:10:20]  Akaash Singh 
 That's a good one. 

[01:10:21]  Donald Trump 
 No, he's terrible. That was Pume. That was Pume Newscomb. He doesn't like that name. But he is good hair, though, Gavin. He probably does. Yeah. 

[01:10:32]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:10:33]  Donald Trump 
 I don't know. Yes. Yeah, Yeah. I don't know. 

[01:10:35]  Andrew Schulz 
 Pretty good. 

[01:10:37]  Donald Trump 
 Don't take your hat off. Because you never know. Sometimes the guy will take his hat off, he has good hair and say, boy, you. And usually it's false 95%. There's always a reason, you know, uh, usually a reason that's okay, too. But what I do, I get a call and they say that, um, she. 

[01:11:00]   
 Kamala said that I'm against ivf. Okay. That I'm against it. They know it's untrue. But all of the lies, positioning in a way, so many different things. Uh, the, uh, bloodbath, that was about the auto industry. But the word is a tough word. China's gonna take all our auto business if we go all electric and all this stuff. 

[01:11:19]   
 And the head of the union, I said, is a fool. He sold the union down. I'm doing great with you. Do you notice where the Teamsters like me and they all like me. The workers like me, because I'm going to. 

[01:11:29]  Andrew Schulz 
 It seems to be the outlaw. 

[01:11:30]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah, it seems to be. Even unions that have never been with a Republican before are endorsing me. I mean, it's incredible. The Teamsters voted 61% in favor of Trump. Think of that. Uh, I'll tell you, the FBI would be in favor. Almost everybody. I think almost everybody would be in February. But they lie and they say, and they know it's a lie. 

[01:11:52]   
 Charlottesville, uh, the Charlottesville statement was perfect. If they take the next sentence that I gave, I made a statement on it. 

[01:11:59]  Andrew Schulz 
 Huh? 

[01:12:00]  Donald Trump 
 It was a perfect statement. And if you take. But they never take the next sentence, they cut it off, and then there's no. Even the other one. Uh, peacefully and patriotically. In my speech, uh, I talked about peacefully and patriotically. They never show that. They never talk about it to show you how dishonest they are. 

[01:12:21]   
 The J6 committee, I call it the unselect. You know, they call it the Select Committee. I call it the unselect committee of political hacks and thugs. They never talk about my speech. Because it was a good speech. It was a patriotic speech. 

[01:12:36]  Andrew Schulz 
 Are you numb to this now or. 

[01:12:37]  Donald Trump 
 No, I just still bother you. It bothers me. I'll tell you what bothers me. Kamala, uh, the other day, said he is against ivf, and everybody knows that that's false. Uh, when I came out, people were a little surprised, actually, because, you know, in theory, but I came out strongly in favor of ivf. 

[01:12:57]   
 She has an add on that I'm against ivf. She knows it's untrue. Um, she has an add on that bloodbath. Uh, bloodbath means like, blood. And that's not what I was talking about. The automobile industry. It's going to be a bloodbath in the automobile. We're going to lose all our business. That's what it's referring to. 

[01:13:14]   
 When they do things, and they do a lot, but I always refer them back to the simplicity of McDonald's. She lied about McDonald's. She lied about many things. Uh, and she's a liar. There should be some kind of a rule. When they know it's a lie, you can't do a commercial on it. 

[01:13:30]   
 But this is a thing that's going to end in 29 days. So they can Say what they want. I have a hard time doing it to them because I'm based, you know, I'm basically a truthful person. But. And frankly, no, but frankly, no, but frankly, uh, she's given me so much ammunition, I don't really have to. 

[01:13:49]   
 I mean, she's a radical left lunatic who will destroy our nation other than that, but she will destroy our nation. So when you take a look at it, um, and I think that, you know, just getting back to your original thought on the abortion, having it back in the states, the people are now voting on it and we're going to put an end to a 52 year ordeal. 

[01:14:10]   
 This has been going on for 52 years. Yeah. Uh, it's back with the states and it's a vote of the people. 

[01:14:18]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:14:18]  Donald Trump 
 And that's where everybody wanted it to be. And I think that issue is largely quelled because of that. 

[01:14:24]  Akaash Singh 
 You've said, like Arizona, you think went a little bit too far. If you feel a state goes a little bit too far, will you use a little influence and say, hey, maybe says we can make exceptions? 

[01:14:32]  Donald Trump 
 I would. Oh, no, I won't back it. I won't back it. I think you, I think that's important. 

[01:14:36]  Akaash Singh 
 For moderates to hear. That's what I want to give you the opportunity. 

[01:14:39]  Donald Trump 
 No. Sometimes they say no, but they're all changing because the people in the state won't stand for that. There are some states that say under no circumstances you have a daughter and she's by the worst, most violent criminal in the country and you cannot get her. Um, you cannot take. 

[01:15:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 She has to live with her for the rest of her life. 

[01:15:02]  Donald Trump 
 She's got to live with this. And the father is a monster. He's from an insane asylum because he killed 50 people. 

[01:15:11]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:15:11]  Donald Trump 
 And you're going to have that baby. 

[01:15:13]  Andrew Schulz 
 And I can't believe you have empathy for that. 

[01:15:15]  Donald Trump 
 No, no, I can't believe that, uh, people are forced to do that. 

[01:15:19]  Akaash Singh 
 Yes. 

[01:15:19]  Donald Trump 
 And you have a tiny. You know, right now. It was, it used to be a much bigger segment. 

[01:15:24]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[01:15:24]  Donald Trump 
 Um, no, I think I've done a good job in a lot of ways because I've convinced people that you just can't do that. 

[01:15:29]  Akaash Singh 
 No, that's important. 

[01:15:29]  Donald Trump 
 It's always been complex. It's always been tough. But we've come a long way with that issue. But just in a nutshell, bringing it back to the states and giving a vote of the people is where they wanted it 30 years ago, 20 years ago, 10 years ago. And then they got a little Complex. 

[01:15:48]   
 They talked about the length and, you know, the number. 

[01:15:50]  Andrew Schulz 
 With protection. 

[01:15:51]  Donald Trump 
 Yes. 

[01:15:51]  Andrew Schulz 
 With protections for women. 

[01:15:53]  Donald Trump 
 And to me, you have to. Ronald Reagan, a long time ago was with the same three protections he said he wanted, you know, for rape, incest, and the life of the mother. And that was a long time ago. 

[01:16:06]  Andrew Schulz 
 Okay, you have a very busy day. Before you go, what, uh, would you like your legacy to be and what do you think it will be? 

[01:16:17]  Donald Trump 
 So. 

[01:16:17]  Andrew Schulz 
 And thank you very much for taking. 

[01:16:19]  Donald Trump 
 Two very different questions, actually, I think. But, um, what would you like it to be? I took over a country that was very troubled. This country was broken up and, uh, tremendous dissension. Uh, and Barack Obama started it. And if you take a look, it was very, very badly broken. And I think now with Biden, you know, let's forget her for a second. 

[01:16:41]   
 But with Biden and her part of it, big part of it. But with Biden, there's tremendous dissension. The country is a broken up mess. Um, and it's broken in a lot of ways. But what I would like my legacy to be is the same as, uh, the term maga. Make America great again. 

[01:17:02]   
 I'm going to make this country great again. It's not a great country right now. It's loaded up. 

[01:17:06]  Andrew Schulz 
 It's always a great country. 

[01:17:07]  Donald Trump 
 It's a great country. 

[01:17:08]  Andrew Schulz 
 That's always a great country. 

[01:17:09]  Donald Trump 
 Okay. But I say it has the potential and it was a great country. I think now there's so much hatred and there's so much dissension. I think when you have people that can't walk down Fifth Avenue, when you have people that can't walk down a street, it ceases to be. 

[01:17:25]  Andrew Schulz 
 We can always be better. We can always be better. 

[01:17:27]  Donald Trump 
 Yeah, but you can't blindfold yourself to. 

[01:17:30]  Andrew Schulz 
 Say I'm honest about it. But to me, I'm really proud of America because I think that I don't. I think I can be the best version of myself here. You know, I think that Donald Trump can only happen in America. Your life, what has happened to you? This is an American story. My mom's life is an American story. 

[01:17:48]   
 Like my mom's from Scotland. She comes here and has all the success and she's so grateful of what America is. That doesn't mean that we can't make it better. I like the idea of making it better every single time, fixing these things when there's leaks in the ship. But the idea of America and becoming the greatest version of yourself is something I'll always be proud of. 

[01:18:07]  Donald Trump 
 I understand what you're saying, when I was president, we had no wars in the whole world because of me. I stopped a lot of wars from him. 

[01:18:15]  Andrew Schulz 
 That makes me proud. 

[01:18:16]  Donald Trump 
 Right. But it's just not happening now. Right now people are dying in Ukraine because we had an incompetent president. If we had a president that knew what the hell he was doing, Ukraine would have never happened. Israel would have never happened. All those people that are dying on both sides, that would have never happened. 

[01:18:33]   
 Uh, Afghanistan, people falling off airplanes from three. Think of that. From 3,500ft above the ground, three times the height of the Empire State Building off the side of the airplane. Um, all of this horrible stuff would have never happened. Inflation would have never happened because that was caused by energy and the stupid energy. 

[01:18:54]   
 So, look, we love our country and it's had moments of greatness, but I think it's a very. It's a declining. It's so sad what's happened. We're a nation in decline, and we can't let it be declined. I'll give you an example. We're going to lose our monetary base very soon because countries are going off the dollar. 

[01:19:17]   
 I'm going to get them back on the dollar. I'm going to say, you got to go back on there. You're not going to do any business with. You got to do it. Um, but I do think there's, uh, where I really agree with you. We have tremendous potential. And I say it make America great again. 

[01:19:34]   
 And I just want to. I would like to have it. I used to have something. I was going to use it, and I didn't use it because the country started to do badly. Cag. Not mag. A cag. I never liked the word cag, but it was Keep America great. You like that? 

[01:19:49]  Andrew Schulz 
 I like this. 

[01:19:49]  Donald Trump 
 But see, I couldn't use it because we had so many problems. So I want to say it sounds. 

[01:19:55]  Andrew Schulz 
 Like that other word. 

[01:19:56]  Donald Trump 
 It doesn't work as well. Look, there's never going to be another maga. I don't know. I came up with a phrase that just turned out to be a maga. 

[01:20:03]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:20:03]  Donald Trump 
 Uh, no. It's the greatest movement, political movement in the history of our country. And these are people that really love our country and they want it to be great and we're going to make it great again. That was what I would like to do, is make this country so great. Better than what you're even thinking. 

[01:20:21]   
 And you are. I mean, I love your attitude because I think that's the way you should be. 

[01:20:24]  Akaash Singh 
 I think that's Sorry. There's one thing I want to give you, a rumor I'd like to give you a chance to dispel. And one question, if you have time, I'd like to ask selfishly. Rumor. The far left, I think, says this thing that if Donald Trump wins, he's never going to cede power. 

[01:20:38]   
 And then they have some clip of you saying, just vote for me one time, you won't have to vote again. I don't believe this is true. I want to give you a chance to publicly say that's nonsense, just so you can publicly speak. Any moderates out there? 

[01:20:47]  Donald Trump 
 So what I said, yeah, Christians tend to vote. Vote at a very low percentage for some reason, and so do gun owners. Would you believe it? The NRA gun owners tend not to vote. Maybe it's a rebellious thing, I don't know. 

[01:21:00]  Andrew Schulz 
 Maybe. 

[01:21:01]  Donald Trump 
 I said, look, our country's in big trouble, really big trouble with the border, with all the problems. We can solve the problem, but vote this one time. After that, we're not going to need it. This is the most important election in the history of our country. Vote for this most important election. And then if you don't want to vote, we're going to have elections. 

[01:21:21]   
 But you don't have to vote because it's going to go along swimmingly. That's how I interpreted it. That's how they interpreted it, too. 

[01:21:29]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yes. They know what they're doing. 

[01:21:30]  Donald Trump 
 You got to vote this time because we don't have. We can't wait four years. Because you know what? In another four years, like we've just had with this clown that's a president, that's just a clown. A foolish man. Don't forget, he was a stupid man 25 years ago. He was never a smart man. 

[01:21:45]   
 He's run many times. Isn't it amazing? He's run many times and he gets it when he's in serious decline. Okay? But anyway, so everybody knows that, and that's what I meant by it. It means we gotta fix it. And then it's gonna work beautifully. It's gonna run beautifully. We're gonna have elections every two years, and every four years, it's gonna be great. 

[01:22:08]  Akaash Singh 
 I just wanna give you a chance to say that to my second question, and if I could ask one question, uh, everybody I speak to, every race, creed, whatever, they don't just like you, they love you. And I talk to people on both sides about your policies, and a lot of people that, uh, like your policies. 

[01:22:21]   
 The China tariff that's still in place right now. As an example of policy that people love. I think sometimes what we love about you as comedians is you shoot from the hip, but then that gets twisted into this rhetoric that adds gasoline onto everything. So the one thing I would like, as I think a moderate person, is maybe if you get elected, would you be a little bit more mindful of how powerful your words are, for better and for worse? 

[01:22:43]  Donald Trump 
 I will. And I'm gonna think of you every time. 

[01:22:46]  Andrew Schulz 
 Let's go. 

[01:22:47]  Donald Trump 
 I might actually vote no. No, it's true. I mean, I understand that, uh, sometimes they say, oh, could you be a little bit more? But you're doing a lot of things, and you're solving a lot of problems. I stopped wars that nobody will ever know about, they won't write about, but countries that were fighting each other and didn't affect us much, but they did business with us. 

[01:23:08]   
 I called up two countries that have fought themselves, fought for thousands of years, killing each other for years. And I said, you guys are at it again. I heard it was going to start up. I stopped it when I first came in, and I said, listen, here's the story. If you go to war with each other, I can give you the details, but I don't even want to bother, because it's nice now. 

[01:23:28]   
 Uh, I said, you're not going to do any more business with the United States. I'm going to cut you off 100%, and if you do get through, I'm going to charge you 200% tariffs. You won't be able to survive. So work it out. Work it out. You know, it was a country that split, and they've been fighting for years. 

[01:23:47]   
 The two halves, I think, like thousands. I get a call and I forget about it. But I had a rough call with them, and I said, I'm going to charge you tariffs, and I'm going to. You're not going to do. You're going to be cut off. No more business. And if they don't have the United States, it's a problem, and we have to keep it that way. 

[01:24:03]   
 We have to keep our country strong so we can do this. I mean, if our country is weak, we don't have that. You know, if we keep getting weaker and weaker, which is happening, we're not going to let that happen. So I get a call two weeks later, two days later, sir, uh, we've worked it all out. 

[01:24:18]   
 Uh, thank you very much. And I go about my business. I save thousands of lives, hundreds of thousands of lives. They've been killing each other for years, for centuries. And I saved thousands of lives. And nobody writes about it. Many people don't even know that's the reason, you know, things are good. And I had it out with him. 

[01:24:39]   
 I said, you guys are crazy. You do that, no more doing business with the United States. You cut off 100%, you're dead. You're not going to do 10 cents worth of business. And I even said the tariff thing, but the first was actually even more powerful. And that's it. I forget about it. 

[01:24:57]   
 I go about doing my business. Two days later, they said, congratulations. What? On what? So and so and so and so there's not going to have a war. They made peace. Uh, I've done so many things like that, and none of them hit the news. Most of them are. None of them are known. 

[01:25:11]   
 Most of them aren't really known. You know, I've made. I've made countries do things for us because they were treating us unfairly. And I've gotten things for our country that nobody else. I really think nobody else could have done. But I enjoy doing it for our country. And, you know, uh, just to get back to where you originally started, I want to make America great again. 

[01:25:31]   
 I want to make it so great that people won't question it. So that people can say, what you just said, that, no, no, it's great. I don't want to have a question. Why should I or anybody else say, no, it's not great anymore. I don't want to be in that position. I think I want to make it so that when you ask a question like that, we can say, well, it's a great, great country. 

[01:25:51]   
 We love our country, but we can do a couple of little things. 

[01:25:54]  Andrew Schulz 
 I think we need that. 

[01:25:55]  Donald Trump 
 I'll put that in our. We want to put that in our basket. 

[01:25:57]  Andrew Schulz 
 I love that. And, uh, well, first of all, thank you so much for. This is an honor. I would be remiss to not even bring this up. You've said that you want to have peace in these places, not just Russia and Ukraine. It's obviously the Middle East. I know that is a very tough task. 

[01:26:09]   
 I don't think maybe you get enough credit for what you accomplished in your administration. Accomplished. With the Abraham Accords. 

[01:26:13]  Donald Trump 
 The Abraham Accords. And they did nothing. 

[01:26:16]  Andrew Schulz 
 Yeah. 

[01:26:17]  Donald Trump 
 Again, Iran was willing to do a deal. I would have had a deal with Iran. And within seven days after the election, I actually said, let's delay it till after the election, because I was sure we were going to win the election. But things happened, you know, Covid happened. 

[01:26:31]  Andrew Schulz 
 Of course, There was a lot of things going on. 

[01:26:32]  Donald Trump 
 Look, it was a mess. 

[01:26:33]  Andrew Schulz 
 But still, I think it's something that a diplomacy out in that region that hasn't existed prior. Is that something, I would imagine, that would be at the forefront of this next administration? 

[01:26:42]  Donald Trump 
 You know, there are great philosophers that said the world will end in the Middle East. We're not going to let that happen. You've heard that expression. 

[01:26:50]  Akaash Singh 
 Yeah. 

[01:26:50]  Donald Trump 
 They said the world will end someday in the Middle East. We're not going to let that happen. 

[01:26:58]  Andrew Schulz 
 M. Well, listen, thank you so much. Thank you so much, Mr. President. 

[01:27:01]  Donald Trump 
 I really appreciate it, guys. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. 

[01:27:07]  Andrew Schulz 
 That was awesome.
