| These airlines, somebody has got to do something. | |
| And I think at some point, the President of the United States can use this issue. | |
| You know, they're talking about, you know, midterms, all of that. | |
| Next, you know, they're really going to come after Trump. | |
| There are issues that they'll use to drive him out of office. | |
| If you become the guy that turns around this airline situation, if you lead the charge, that's instant reelection. | |
| People are getting abused all over the place on every plane. | |
| You're being treated like farm animals when you get on a plane. | |
| And this goes on nowhere else in the world. | |
| If you flew on any airline in the world, if you were in Asia, on Cathay Pacific, if you were on Lufthansa, anyway, they treat you like a king or a queen. | |
| If you took an airline from the most awful Middle Eastern dictator country, you'll be treated so well on those airlines. | |
| If you've ever been in Emirate Air, you'd think you're on the most luxurious cruise you've ever been on. | |
| Why is it only in this country we allow this to go on? | |
| First of all, there used to be a time where you'd take a seat and maybe there, maybe there are a lot of people on the plane. | |
| Maybe it's not so full. | |
| Now no plane can take off unless it is absolutely packed and they've made the seat smaller and smaller and tighter and tighter. | |
| They got it down to 31 inches between seats, legroom. | |
| You could buy one of those little fiats that's got more than 31 inches of legroom. | |
| And American Airlines just announced they're redesigning the plane. | |
| They figured out a way to get it down to 29 inches. | |
| And I don't know if you've noticed this. | |
| The seat back behind you is getting thinner and thinner and thinner. | |
| And what they call the pitch, like how far back it goes. | |
| Remember they used to say, put your seat in the upright position. | |
| Now you'd pray for that upright position. | |
| Now the regular position, the pitch is even higher so they can put the seat behind you even closer. | |
| This is absolutely ridiculous. | |
| This is not allowed in any other profession. | |
| And then Ethan is telling me you got a ticket, you're all paid for. | |
| You're sitting on the plane. | |
| You have to get up. | |
| We overbooked the flight. | |
| You can't sit here. | |
| What? | |
| And look at this Delta Airlines video that's gone viral. | |
| This guy's not leaving. | |
| He's got his kids. | |
| And they said, well, you're going to go to jail because we can have you arrested and you're going to jail. | |
| He says, but I have my kids here. | |
| You'll be in jail and your kids will be there alone. | |
| There's no other, name any other business where you could do this to anybody. | |
| Anybody. | |
| Imagine if you're in a nice restaurant. | |
| You have to get up. | |
| We need the table. | |
| We're overbooked. | |
| Well, but I just started eating. | |
| If you don't get up, I'm calling the police in here and you're going to jail. | |
| It's only because these airlines, it's the only situation you walk into where you're super regulated by government regulations. | |
| There's all kinds of laws, regulations that don't apply anywhere else, but it's got to change. | |
| And President Donald Trump is the guy to do it. | |
| Can you imagine if he speaks out about it the way he communicates? | |
| He'll really get it across. | |
| He would call in the heads of every airline. | |
| It's probably 25 people. | |
| You get him in a room, and you just say, this cannot go on. | |
| You're going to have to figure something out. | |
| You can't treat people like this anymore. |
