=== Builder President Surprises (01:56) ===

[00:00:00]  Were you surprised?
[00:00:01]  I think he's turned out to be a great president.
[00:00:05]  Did this surprise you?
[00:00:07]  I admit it surprised me.
[00:00:09]  It did not, and I have believed in this president from the moment he announced that he was running.
[00:00:19]  It's because the country needed a disruptor, and he was that.
[00:00:24]  And maybe it's because I've spent a lot of time worrying about the political economy.
[00:00:29]  Not just the economy or politics, but the political economy.
[00:00:33]  And I'm enamored by people who are innovative and who can break through orthodoxies and actually have a sense of timing to know when it is most propitious to do so.
[00:00:49]  This president wanted expressed, and by the way, when I said to you that I thought he would be a great president, I didn't know he would be this great, but I knew he would be great because of his independence, his pragmatism, and his ability to get things done.
[00:01:10]  He was a builder.
[00:01:11]  The country needs a builder.
[00:01:13]  A builder is by definition optimistic.
[00:01:15]  A builder, by definition, does not want to be fettered by unnecessary regulation or nonsense.
[00:01:27]  And a builder, by definition, also, is someone who likes people and must work with people of all walks of life.
[00:01:34]  Yes, indeed.
[00:01:35]  Lou Dobbs, I have two more questions for you, if you could stay on.
[00:01:41]  And one is good.
[00:01:43]  I ask everyone this to explain the hatred, so I'd love you to do so.
[00:01:48]  By the way, I have a question.
[00:01:50]  Is today your birthday?
[00:01:51]  It is my birthday.
[00:01:53]  Thank you for noticing.
[00:01:55]  Well, thank you.
