=== He Brings Them On Board (03:17) ===

[00:00:00]  Four years ago, when they had the prisoners, four years ago, you go and say, you have to let our prisoners go.
[00:00:05]  And I tell this to people.
[00:00:07]  It's like 101. Business 101. You have to let our prisoners go.
[00:00:10]  And they're going to say no.
[00:00:11]  Okay.
[00:00:12]  You leave the room.
[00:00:13]  There's nothing wrong with leaving.
[00:00:15]  I did it the other night for the debate.
[00:00:17]  I left.
[00:00:18]  You know?
[00:00:21]  And I love Fox and I love Roger Ailes and all those guys.
[00:00:24]  But I'll tell you what, they weren't treating me right.
[00:00:26]  They put out some nasty memos.
[00:00:28]  And by the way, if I was there, the Washington Post and other papers, they didn't do very well.
[00:00:34]  I'll tell you, they did about half the number they should have had.
[00:00:37]  They did 12 million.
[00:00:39]  When I was there for the first one, we did 24 million.
[00:00:42]  And they want to put a spin on it, and that's okay.
[00:00:44]  And it had nothing to do with, what was her name, Megan Kelly?
[00:00:47]  I don't care about her.
[00:00:48]  What the hell difference does her make?
[00:00:50]  I didn't get treated fairly by her, but I don't care about her.
[00:00:52]  I didn't like it when they sent out a memo.
[00:00:55]  And I had to get an apology.
[00:00:56]  And I wanted $5 million to go to our veterans, right?
[00:01:00]  So they said, well, no.
[00:01:02]  Actually, I thought they said yes for a while, but in the end they said no.
[00:01:05]  So I didn't do the debate.
[00:01:07]  I held a thing, and some of you were there probably.
[00:01:09]  Did you ever see lines like that?
[00:01:11]  We had 800 people.
[00:01:13]  We had 800 seats.
[00:01:14]  We had lines that would have filled up a stadium.
[00:01:16]  And I felt badly because so many people got turned away.
[00:01:19]  People in this crowd got turned away.
[00:01:22]  And we had lines that would have filled up the stadium.
[00:01:25]  And we raised, in one hour, $6 million for the events.
[00:01:30]  How about that?
[00:01:32]  So tell us what you thought about this Donald Trump event.
[00:01:35]  Oh, I enjoyed it.
[00:01:36]  I've been watching a lot of the events on TV, and I'm just really impressed with him.
[00:01:42]  I was just telling somebody a few minutes ago.
[00:01:45]  We've had politicians in office for years and what do we have to show for it?
[00:01:50]  So I think it's time to have someone with a business background and see what he can do.
[00:01:56]  So that's one of your top issues is about the economy.
[00:01:58]  What's another issue?
[00:02:00]  It's leadership.
[00:02:01]  It's leadership.
[00:02:02]  We don't have leadership.
[00:02:05]  Looks like he could lead in all areas.
[00:02:07]  Well, seeing as hiking and flying on that big Boeing jet...
[00:02:11]  That's impressive.
[00:02:11]  That's impressive.
[00:02:12]  I mean, he has a commanding presence.
[00:02:16]  Right now, whether he wins or not, he has a commanding presence.
[00:02:19]  Well, it's interesting because I noticed back last summer when he first announced that he was already getting coverage as big as the president, if not bigger.
[00:02:27]  And also, just by what he's talking about, I mean, he talked about the Iranian hostages, the ones that were being held for so long, the four or five, and he kept talking about it.
[00:02:37]  At every event, he would talk about those hostages, and they released them.
[00:02:40]  So he's making things happen.
[00:02:43]  He's not even president making things happen.
[00:02:45]  I have noticed that in different areas.
[00:02:47]  Well, just all of the topics that all the candidates are talking about.
[00:02:50]  Until he brings them up, they're not talking about them.
[00:02:53]  And he brings them up and all of a sudden everybody's on board with it.
[00:02:57]  Well, it's like I think yesterday or the day before the news broke that in some European countries like Sweden and...
[00:03:03]  Some of the European countries that they're actually going to export some of the refugees.
[00:03:08]  Exactly.
[00:03:09]  And places that we're letting them in are now building a wall.
[00:03:14]  So, yeah, you know, I'm impressed with him.
