=== Greatest Butt Kicking (01:34) ===

[00:00:00]  And I remember after 34 felony convictions, he turned around, shook my hand, we walked out together, we hopped in the car, and we were actually going to a fundraiser.
[00:00:07]  We were in court by day.
[00:00:08]  We were fundraising by night.
[00:00:10]  We were, you know, campaigning by night.
[00:00:13]  And I remember as soon as we got in the car, he looked at me.
[00:00:15]  He goes, I don't know how, but we're going to win.
[00:00:17]  I don't know how, but we're going to win.
[00:00:19]  And he wasn't just talking about the court case, which we had overturned.
[00:00:23]  We won it.
[00:00:25]  But the overall election, right?
[00:00:27]  I mean, you had every press member in the back of those courtrooms and they were giving him a 0% chance.
[00:00:32]  And, you know, it's funny.
[00:00:33]  And in his early life, he wrote, you know, The Art of the Deal.
[00:00:36]  Then his second book was The Art of the Comeback, you know, talking about obviously his business career in the 90s when everybody thought he was down and out.
[00:00:43]  And it's like the perfect parallel, right?
[00:00:45]  I mean, this was the art.
[00:00:46]  It was the art of the comeback.
[00:00:47]  No one would ever have thought a guy who was just charged with 91 felony convictions for doing nothing wrong, but because you had a system that was totally weaponized against you, could ultimately become president.
[00:00:56]  And not only did he become president, won every swing state, right?
[00:01:00]  He won the popular vote.
[00:01:02]  Every state in the nation went to the right, meaning, you know, attacked to the right in terms of voting.
[00:01:08]  We picked up places that we had never, I mean, we picked up 11 counties in California that had never been Republican before that went Republican.
[00:01:14]  Miami-Dade, which hasn't been won in 37 years, we won by 11%.
[00:01:19]  I mean, it wasn't like a baby victory.
[00:01:21]  It was like the greatest, you know, I would use a different word, but because we're on TV, greatest butt kicking in the history of the world.
[00:01:28]  And, you know, you want to talk about the art of the comeback.
[00:01:33]  That was the true art of the comeback.
