• 0:10
  Speaker 1: This inflation thing is a big deal.
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: So in the first ninety days, the strokes that you
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: make to change the economy when you're elected, that's pretty dramatic.
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: I believe I'll be able to get energy down to
• 0:20
  Speaker 3: fifty percent of what it is right now within a
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: period of less than a year.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: I know small businesses or where jobs come from. When
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: you guys in government can take your hands off of
• 0:30
  Speaker 2: small business, we're able to employ people and change things.
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: So how can you help small businesses?
• 0:35
  Speaker 3: You have to love what you do. If you don't
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: love what you do, it's not going to work. It's
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: the largest tax cuts in the history of our country.
• 0:42
  Speaker 3: That's why we became so successful.
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: I think I think we can do that again.
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I think we can go lower.
• 0:47
  Speaker 3: If I don't turn my head at the exact ninety
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: degree angle, if I was a little off, I'm not
• 0:53
  Speaker 3: doing this very nice interview with you.
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: I hear you're going back to Butler and finish the speech.
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: I am.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: I'm going to say, hey, guys, Dave Ramsey here with
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: the Ramsey Show. If you don't know what the Ramsey
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: Show is, it's a show about life, about money, about relationships.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: It's not a show about politics. We specifically, over the
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: years have tried.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: To remind you over and over again that what.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Happens in your house is more important for your success
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: than what happens in the White House. We also realize
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: that this election is a really important time right now,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: that people are really looking at what's happening. There's a
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: real divisiveness in the air, a lot of anger in
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: the air. So our team reached out to Vice President
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: Harris's team about the opportunity to sit down with her
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: for a long form interview, and reached out to President
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Trump's team about the opportunity to sit down for a
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: long form interview with him and to talk about ideas,
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: talk about what's going to happen, not what has happened,
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: and not about personalities, and not about name calling, because
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: both sides are pretty good at all of that stuff,
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: and the fact that I sit down with either one
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: of these candidates is going to piss some of you off,
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: and frankly, I'm perfectly fine with that. It's something I
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: wanted to do and I felt like it was something
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: we needed to talk about. So I find myself sitting
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: here in Trump Tower, getting ready to interview President Trump
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: for a few minutes. I think you're going to find
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: this really interesting. So, President Trump, thanks for taking time
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: to sit down with us.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: Good thanking with you.
• 2:26
  Speaker 2: As you know, we do a show called The Ramsey
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: Show and talk to regular folks every day, calling in
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: most of the time with financial trouble, sometimes with financial
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: victories stuff. We've taught them to do the basic grandma's
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: common sense stuff. And that audience that's going to be
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: watching this is they're not concerned with a lot of things,
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: but they are concerned with eight dollar eggs, five dollar gas,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: seven percent of shit rates and a house that can't
• 2:54
  Speaker 2: afford with wages not going up as fast as house prices.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: This inflation things a big deal.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: So in the first ninety days, the strokes that you
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: make to change the economy when you're elected are a
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: big deal. Are you what's the first things you're going
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: to do on that?
• 3:08
  Speaker 3: Well, in terms of inflation, you're right, And it's almost
• 3:11
  Speaker 3: inflation over the economy if you want to really know,
• 3:14
  Speaker 3: because people are getting wiped out like never before. I
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: think it's the highest inflation we've ever had. They say
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: it's the highest in forty eight years. I think it's
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: the highest ever. There's never been any mess like this,
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: and it's because of what they did with energy. Also,
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: then they topped it with spending with money that trillions
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: and trillions of dollars that.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: They didn't need. That's being just wasted.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: But the first thing you have to do is get
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: the energy down. If you get the energy down, other
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: things are going to follow. You want to get the
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: interest rates down to and interestingly, even interest rates are
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: going to follow energy because it's going to take that
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: burden off the shoulders of the economy and off the
• 3:49
  Speaker 3: shoulders of inflation itself. And we are going to drill
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: at a level that you haven't seen since let's say
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: four or five years ago. But even more so, we
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: would have been so dominant by this point if you remember,
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: when you go back to the beginning of this really
• 4:05
  Speaker 3: failed administration that we're in right now, what they did
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: was they turned off the energy.
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: They turned off everything that I.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: Had turned back on the keystone. You're going to turn
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: back on the drull baby drill line and the drill.
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: In your acceptance speech at the.
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: Condusion, it says it all.
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: You know, I'd like to use another line, but there's
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: no line that's better, and we're going to drill, baby drill.
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: But the fact that they turned it off and then
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: the energy if you look back at the very initial
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: period of their administration, the numbers started going through the roof,
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: the energy numbers, inflation was goes, and then they went
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: back to Trump where they're trying to equal it, and
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: it kept it bad as opposed to horrific. And it's
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: been really bad. And the energy has been very expensive,
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: but nothing like it could have been. So they went
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: back to Trump type things. But we would have been
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: now three to four times more. We would have been
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: dominating the entire world on energy. We have more than
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: anybody else, as you've heard me say, but as you
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: also know, I call it liquid gold. We have more
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: liquid gold under our feet than anybody else. Actually, by far,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: we would have dominated. We would have been taking care
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: of Europe, we would have been taking care of Asia.
• 5:14
  Speaker 3: We would have been taking care you know. And war
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: in Alaska is the biggest find anywhere in the world.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: It could be as big as Saudi Arabia. And I
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: got it. Ronald Reagan couldn't get it. Nobody could get it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: I got it. It was done, ready to start, and
• 5:29
  Speaker 3: when these people came in, they turned it off, they
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: terminated it.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: Nobody could believe it.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: I don't know if if people realize that, you know,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: ten to fifteen percent of the entire economy is energy,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: and it weaves its tentacles through everything else. So five
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: dollars gas effects that bread truck if you deliver in
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: the bread, and that affects the cost of the bread
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: then and so getting that plentiful right changes everything.
• 5:54
  Speaker 4: So I have a.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: Little thing that I've been saying lately because I think
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: it's easily achievable. You know, we pay very high energy costs,
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: and especially now, but we're paying very very high. I
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: believe I'll be able to get energy down to fifty
• 6:07
  Speaker 3: percent fifty five zho percent of what it is right
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: now within a period of less than a year. Wow,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: that's pretty good. It's going to happen fast. Okay, it's
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: going to happen fast.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: But what are you going to do to do that?
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: What causes that.
• 6:21
  Speaker 3: They're going to drill, they're going to they're going to frack,
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: they're going to do things that they they have tremendous
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: taking the rings off, taking the regulation. Yeah, we Oh,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: we have to. They put them back on. They put
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: regulations back on that areas that have no environmental real meaning,
• 6:36
  Speaker 3: they don't let them drill. They're taking leases away government
• 6:40
  Speaker 3: leases that you're hearing about. I think we can get
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: energy costs down to half of what they're if we
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: do that, that's pretty dramatic if everything, all of those
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: inflated prices are going to come down with it.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: I think the other piece of that.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: And I know he was part of your administration, and
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: you and I how were talking before we turn the
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: camera down, that we have a mutual friend and Art Laugher.
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: I know he helped a little bit with the tax
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: code in the last administration, and I personally have experienced
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: the Laffer curve. The lower taxes causes increased revenues to
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: the federal government because it heats up the economy. And
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I'm a small business guy. When you lower my taxes,
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: it doesn't mean I put it in my pocket. It
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: means I hire people. And so talk about lowering taxes
• 7:20
  Speaker 2: in the first cure of your marriery.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you probably saw my plan, and I think we
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: have something really good. I was yesterday in North Carolina,
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: which is great that was the furniture capital of the world,
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: and China then went in and did a number and
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: took so much of that business. You know, most of
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: that business. The talent I used to go there to
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: buy furniture for hotels and things.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I think it was free North Carolina, yep in Hickory.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: I was in Hickory yesterday and made a speech, and
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: we're going to bring it all back. What we're doing
• 7:48
  Speaker 3: is this sort of a two phase. Number one, I
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: took taxes from thirty nine percent to twenty one percent.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: You know that better than anyone. It's the largest tax
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: cuts in the history of our country. And that was great.
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: That's why we came so successful. You know, it's fun.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: I think we can do that again.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think we can go lower. And I'll tell
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: you what I'm doing. I'm bringing it from twenty one
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: to fifteen. But you have to manufacture your product here
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: and then you pay fifteen percent. And then I'm going
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: to put tariffs on countries so they can't come in
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: and steal our business, so that our businesses now can
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: be competitive. Not that I mean China came in and
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: just stole or furniture and many other industries, by the way,
• 8:27
  Speaker 3: including steel, and I saved steel by putting fifty percent
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: on one hundred percent tariffs on all of the steel
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: that they were dumping. But we're going to do so.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: In other words, this is a dream for you. Then
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: we're bringing the tax rate from twenty one. Remember it
• 8:43
  Speaker 3: was thirty nine and it was really fifty of you
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: ad state and local and all of the other things.
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: So we're going to bring it down from twenty one
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: to fifteen. I got it down to twenty one, which
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: everyone said was impossible, and got it approved by Congress.
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: So it's you know, it's there, and we're going to
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: bring that down to fifteen. But you have to make
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: your product in the United States.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: And we do see federal revenues go up when the
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: taxes go down.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Economy. You saw it with me, so we all with
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Reagan too. You saw it with Reagan.
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: So at thirty nine percent and then down to twenty
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: one percent, you would think would do half or you
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: do much less. In the first full year, we did
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: much more revenue in the United States, so we did
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: at thirty In other words, we took in much more money.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Which is how you solve the deficity I mean Bill
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: Clinton almost bounced the budget, but exactly.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, that's true. That's true. He did.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: And cost cutting. We have plenty of cost cutting to
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: do too. And that's okay. That's in fact that I'm.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: Going to ask Elon, who's a great guy. But he's
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: a pretty good great interview.
• 9:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh that was a great internal That was That
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: was some interview. We did pretty big numbers here. We
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: did like nine hundred million people or something. That was
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: a pretty good But he's a great guy and he
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: gave me a full endorsement and all of that. But
• 10:03
  Speaker 3: he's got a good sense on that this tremendous cost
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: cutting that we can do and affect nothing. Just we're
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: not going to affect anybody. We're not going to hurt anybody.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: We have to save social Security and keep it good
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: and solid. I don't want to be raising ages or anything.
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: I don't want to do.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: They're putting migrants into social Security when they get finished.
• 10:27
  Speaker 4: They are.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: If she got elected, this country is going bust. If
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: she got elected, we're going back to nineteen twenty nine depression.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: It would be a disaster for Medicare, social Security. They're
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: allowing millions and millions.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: Of people to come in. You can't use these schools anymore.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: The quality of life in this country has gone so
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: bad because of what they've done.
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: One of the things that our viewers know about us,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: we work with tens of thousands of small business people
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: and so coaching them. Fifty four percent of the gross
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: domestic product is businesses five hundred people or less. Yeah,
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: almost everyone in America, over half, almost sixty percent of
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: people work for a small business. And I know small
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: businesses or where jobs come from, not from government. So
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: politicians don't create jobs. Small businesses do. That's business especials.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: People like me off when they when the politicians say
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: they're making ones making the jobs, We're the ones making
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: the jobs. But when the guys, when you guys in
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: government can take your hands off of small business and
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: allow us to do our thing, we're able to employ
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: people and change things. So how can you help small businesses? Well,
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: the best way is just letting them do what they
• 11:35
  Speaker 2: have to do. But we still have to give them
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: a playing field. If we don't give them a level
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: playing field, they will die. And that's what happened before.
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: That's why China came in that's why. Well, they came
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: in and they.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Came in at a level like nobody's ever seen, and
• 11:49
  Speaker 3: we did nothing about it. So the word tariff to
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: me is a very beautiful word because it can. It
• 11:54
  Speaker 3: can save our country truly, and yet I think because
• 11:58
  Speaker 3: of graft, because of a lot of consulting payments and
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: other things that given by other countries, we have so
• 12:06
  Speaker 3: much fighting with politicians on using it. I saved our
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: steel industries by putting tariffs on steel that China came
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: in and dumped. And you know what they do. They
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: dump and dump and dump. Everybody goes out of business.
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: Then they buy those businesses very cheap, and then they
• 12:20
  Speaker 3: raise the prices the higher than they ever were. That's
• 12:24
  Speaker 3: one of the many benefits that they have if they
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: want to do it. But by putting tariffs on as
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: an example, in the furniture business in North Carolina, it
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: was so vibrant and they stole our business and they
• 12:36
  Speaker 3: charge us if you wanted to build a furniture place,
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: if you want to sell your furniture in China, they
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: won't take it. But if you want to build a
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: plant in China to make furniture in China, using their labor,
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: they open it. We're doing the same thing. But a
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: lot of people, oh, well, we don't want to have tariffs.
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: The country was at the richest point in history in
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: the eighteen nineties.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: It was all tariffs.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: If you looked at William McKinley as an example, he
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: was a big tariff president. They had committees that were
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: put in charge of what to do with the money.
• 13:13
  Speaker 3: We were taking in so much money, and McKinley would say,
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: why should we let other people come in and steal
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: our factories and steal our workers and steal our jobs,
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: and why shouldn't we benefit? And he tariffed the other
• 13:26
  Speaker 3: countries and we made so much and then they went
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: to the income tax system later on, but they would
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: actually have they had a Blue Ribbon Committee. Our country
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: was so rich they didn't know what to do with
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: the money, and this Blue Ribbon Committee was set up
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: to determine how can we spend all of this money?
• 13:44
  Speaker 3: And they took it in through tariffs. But we can
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: turn our country around, make it strong, and then guard
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: it with tariffs.
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: Strange gears for a second. Mawife, Sharon and I were
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: in Scotland two weeks ago and We played a bunch
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: of different courses there, including Turnberry Good. Arguably, according to
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: the golf guys I was playing with, is the nicest
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: course in the UK right now, and certainly the Halfway House.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Very's amazing.
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: But what I came away with not only is golf
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: course great, just to give you a huge compliment, you
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: know that, but the staff and the team, the excellence
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: in the hotel, in the restaurants, in the golf shop.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Everybody we dealt with.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: Talk about what it's like to work for Donald Trump.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: How do you hire leaders and put people in place
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: to do that? Because I know you're obviously not there
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: personally managing that, but you put a culture in place
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: in your organization, and that applies to the administration as well,
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: hiring people their quality leaders.
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: Well, my son Eric is very much involved and he
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: runs a lot of it, and Don helps out a lot,
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: and Ivanka to a lesser extent.
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: You know, she's a.
• 14:48
  Speaker 3: Great mother and everything. She did a fantastic job in
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: the administration. All she wanted to do is get people jobs.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: She'd go around and see Exxon and see Walmart.
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: She wanted jobs for people. It's really pretty amazing.
• 15:02
  Speaker 3: She could have had a very glamorous job, and she
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: would have done well.
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: But Eric's done a great job.
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: And I did a similar type of job when I
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: was doing it. Now I'm doing a thing called running
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: for president. So I don't get because we rebuilt Turnberry.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: Turnberry was considered one of the greatest courses in the
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: world because the land is so incredible, right with the
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: ocean and.
• 15:21
  Speaker 4: You know that ninth all over the you're hitting over
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: the ocean. How good a golf are you?
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Eh? Thirteen? All right, that's not great. I'm just I'm
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: only been playing five years. I'm just learning.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: Oh. Really enjoyed you and Bryce's fifty wasn't that was fun?
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: It was a great video.
• 15:34
  Speaker 3: That one did well in terms of the ratings. And
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: he can swing club and he can swing and he's
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: a great guy. And he is very long, very straight,
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: and you know what, he's a great butter. Yeah, one
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: of the best putters. He's one of the best butters
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: in the world. That was quite an exciting thing. We
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: got it down to fifty.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: You actually pulled one hole off. I watched it. Yeah,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: we all rode on you. You carried on.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: Even more than one all if you want to but
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: we we did well, we did It was very fun.
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: So what leadership qualities when Eric's hiring did you teach
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: him to look for?
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Well, I like the recommendation business, but what I like
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: best is taking people that are in the company and
• 16:14
  Speaker 3: moving them up. You take a waitress as an example,
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: and she becomes the head of the restaurant.
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: You say, because you know if certain people are good.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: And when they work for you already, you know it's
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: better than recommendation. But if you don't do that, or
• 16:30
  Speaker 3: if you can't do that for some reason, you really
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: need strong references. And then they have to enjoy their job.
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: If they don't enjoy their job, they're not going to
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: be very good at it.
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: So I ended up at a table Ronnie Barrett. Yeah,
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: Barrett right at fifty KL. I was a friend of ours,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: and I ended up at a table with him at
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: an NRA convention with Eric and Don. Got to spend
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: some time with both of them, And you're right, they're impressive.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: How do you raise great kids? What'd you do so
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: grandkids will turned out killed?
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: We have?
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: Oh? How good?
• 17:03
  Speaker 3: She's a great she's a great girlfer. By the way,
• 17:05
  Speaker 3: she's a.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Great speaker too.
• 17:07
  Speaker 4: She was good. She was so beautiful person in every way.
• 17:11
  Speaker 3: She took over that whole Republican convention in Kai Kai
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: are beautiful Gui. So the one thing I always told
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: my kids no drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. Now in
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: my day there were no drugs. There was alcohol and cigarettes.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: And and I had a brother that went.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Through a lot with alcohol, and and he taught me
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: a lot.
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: He really taught me a lot.
• 17:39
  Speaker 3: And my brother Fred, and he had a problem with alcohol,
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: to put it mildly, and he would always and he
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: was quite a bit older than me, and he'd been
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: through it, and he would say, no alcohol, I never
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: want to see you drink, you know, very strong. And
• 17:55
  Speaker 3: he'd also say no cigarettes. But because you know, cigarettes
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: are like you don't need. If you don't smoke, if
• 18:01
  Speaker 3: you don't drink, you have no problem with staying off it.
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: When you do drink and you it gets it's very
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: hard to stay off it. I mean, I've seen very
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: strong people that cannot get off. But the way you
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: get off is if you never start. If you never start.
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: I never had a glass of alcohol in my life.
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: I've never had I've never had a glass of alcohol.
• 18:22
  Speaker 3: If you can believe it. I think largely because of
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: my brother. I think if I did, I probably I
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: probably would have a problem, you know, personality type, right,
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: But I never had a last I have.
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: No longing for it.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: I have friends that are on the wagon, as they say,
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: and I watch them watching trays go by. The tray
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: is going by. Oh, it's like they have you know,
• 18:43
  Speaker 3: it's a thing that they can't get over with. Same
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: with smoking, it's tough. I've seen guys just grab somebody's cigarette.
• 18:51
  Speaker 3: They haven't had one in a long time, and to
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: them it's like the greatest sensation. If you've never smoked,
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: you never You just don't have that problem. So I
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: tell people for their children, no drugs, no alcohol, and
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: no cigarettes.
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: They obviously work really really hard. How'd you teach the
• 19:11
  Speaker 2: They have to like what they do. If they don't
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: like what they do, they do. My kids like what
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: they do. And I would say genetically. I'm a believer
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: in genetics, you know, I like it. I'm good at
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: doing certain things.
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: And you know, racesources like two slow racesources don't produce
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: the Kentucky Derby winner, right, you.
• 19:29
  Speaker 4: Know that's not the way it is.
• 19:31
  Speaker 3: But you have to have an ability or something, and
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: if you don't have the ability, don't do it. But
• 19:36
  Speaker 3: most importantly, do something you like, whether it's your parents
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: or not. You know, your parents want you to go
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: into a business, or they want you to go into
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: a store with them if they have a store.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: I would say that you have to love what you do.
• 19:49
  Speaker 3: If you don't love what you do, it's not going
• 19:50
  Speaker 3: to work. I've never seen it. If you don't want
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: to get up in the morning and go to work. Now,
• 19:57
  Speaker 3: a lot of people say, with all the people come
• 20:00
  Speaker 3: after you, do you really love getting up in the morning.
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: You understand that, right.
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: I'm attacked at left and right, but I do because
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: when we make so much progress. We're doing great on
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: the campaign, as you probably see with leading in the campaign.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: Now and doing well.
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: We beat Biden and we were up so far on him,
• 20:19
  Speaker 3: and then they said that's like a fight. You're in
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: a fight, and they changed the fighter in the middle
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: of the right. In the middle of the fight, they
• 20:26
  Speaker 3: changed the fighter. And now we're beating her very badly.
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: I'd be so interesting to see her in your show,
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: because I don't believe that she would be able to
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: answer any questions on what you discuss better than anybody else.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: I'm happy to have her if she'd come.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: I'm sure she was. I'm sure she'd love to come.
• 20:45
  Speaker 4: She wouldn't come.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: So here you're going back to Butler and finish the speech.
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: I am. I'm going to say as I was saying.
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: So when that happened and you're get in the car,
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: I know I saw a clip the other day that
• 21:00
  Speaker 2: Malaney was watching on television.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: She saw the shot. I saw your dodge.
• 21:05
  Speaker 2: So you go down, so you get up, and how
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: fast were you able to get on the phone talk
• 21:09
  Speaker 2: to her?
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: Well, I know she was calling, and you know, I
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: was a little tough to take a phone call with
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: blood pouring down your ear.
• 21:18
  Speaker 4: People don't know. The ear is the bloodiest part.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: If you get hit in the ear, it's at pleast
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: because there was a lot of blood. But no, I
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: spoke to her. By the time I got to the hospital,
• 21:29
  Speaker 3: I've spoken to her and she was. She was sort
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: of watching it. She had it held off for a
• 21:35
  Speaker 3: couple of minutes, and then somebody called her and said
• 21:38
  Speaker 3: he's okay, he's okay.
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: She said, what do you mean he's okay?
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: What does that mean, she had no idea, and then
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: she went back and pressed it and caught up.
• 21:46
  Speaker 4: Now, it was tough for her, tough for my son too.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: He came out.
• 21:50
  Speaker 3: Somebody had said, uh, your father just got hit, and
• 21:55
  Speaker 3: he came in and he.
• 21:56
  Speaker 4: Was very, very riled up. Yeah, that's a tough thing.
• 22:02
  Speaker 4: That was a tough day.
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: And I don't recommend it for anybody. I you know,
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: I get very lucky, or maybe maybe more than lucky.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: If you don't turn to everybody start talking about the
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: immigration chart at the precise moment.
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: If I don't turn my head at the exact ninety
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: degree angle, if I was a little off one way
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: or the other, it's I'm not doing this very nice
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: interview with you.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: I wouldn't be around to do this interview.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: So when you were in the White House for four years,
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: you were talking about loving your work earlier. I have
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: the privilege of loving my work. That's why I still
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: do That's why I still do it. I don't need
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: to obviously more, just like you don't need you. What
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: was the most rewarding thing in the four years that
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: you were there for you?
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: So my whole thing is make America great again, all right,
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: that's you know, that's why I do it, and we
• 22:57
  Speaker 3: did it.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: Then COVID came.
• 22:59
  Speaker 3: We did a really good job that so it was
• 23:01
  Speaker 3: always about making it great again. That I had the
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: country going just prior to COVID coming at a level
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: that nobody had ever seen. And even if you go
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: all four years, it was so good that even with
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: that terrible interruption that destroyed the world, we had the
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: greatest four years. The economy was so great, the job
• 23:22
  Speaker 3: numbers were the best ever, et cetera.
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: And I think just that concept of what I had done,
• 23:26
  Speaker 1: the performance.
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but individual things getting the tax cuts aprove biggest
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: tax cuts in history, biggest regulation cuts in the history
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: of our country.
• 23:37
  Speaker 4: Rebuilding the military.
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: We did a job in the rebuilt the whole military,
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: and then you see a lot of that military being
• 23:46
  Speaker 3: given to Afghanistan stupidly because they left the country. I mean,
• 23:49
  Speaker 3: you know, and now you see them praying it back
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: and forth. That was I think the most embarrassing moment
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: in the history of our country, what they did. But
• 23:58
  Speaker 3: there were a lot of individual achieves that we had
• 24:01
  Speaker 3: the creation of space force. You know, space force is
• 24:04
  Speaker 3: now dominating space. And when I came there was no
• 24:07
  Speaker 3: Space Force, the first time since Air Force seventy eight
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: years maybe eighty years by now. And we are dominating
• 24:14
  Speaker 3: space now, and we wouldn't be. We were being We
• 24:18
  Speaker 3: were in third place by far, and now we're way
• 24:22
  Speaker 3: in first place.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: And it is very important militarily. It's very important.
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: President Trump, thanks for taking Tom.
• 24:27
  Speaker 4: Thank you very much.
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: Told us you got a speech here in a few minutes.
