=== People Who Hate Our Country (08:44) ===

[00:00:00]  Your attorney general clearly lied about the Epstein death.
[00:00:04]  Yeah, he was.
[00:00:04]  Why?
[00:00:05]  He was, certainly it wasn't well done.
[00:00:07]  They had no cameras.
[00:00:08]  They had no anything.
[00:00:10]  Everybody was sleeping.
[00:00:11]  And, you know, a case could be made.
[00:00:13]  Look, I'm not going to get involved in it.
[00:00:16]  But I can tell you, a case could be made either way.
[00:00:18]  But guys like Bill Barr were terrible.
[00:00:20]  I mean, they were, I would say, bushies.
[00:00:23]  I say that with respect to the Bush family, but they were bushies and just it doesn't work out for us.
[00:00:29]  It was clear, and this is kind of far afield, but it was just interesting.
[00:00:32]  I read Barr's account of his time.
[00:00:35]  He wrote a book about it.
[00:00:36]  Right.
[00:00:37]  His autobiography.
[00:00:38]  And in it, he lies about Jeffrey Epstein's death.
[00:00:41]  Clearly lies.
[00:00:44]  Do you think Epstein killed himself sincerely?
[00:00:47]  I don't know.
[00:00:48]  I will say that, you know, he was a fixture in Palm Beach.
[00:00:51]  Yeah.
[00:00:52]  I don't know what Barr said about it either.
[00:00:54]  I have no idea what he said.
[00:00:55]  What did he say?
[00:00:56]  He killed himself, probably.
[00:00:57]  He said he killed himself and that they were going to do this investigation.
[00:00:59]  They never did the investigation.
[00:01:00]  It's never been public.
[00:01:02]  And they hid it.
[00:01:02]  And like, why are they doing that?
[00:01:04]  And clearly Barr knew.
[00:01:06]  But why would Bill Barr be covering up the death of Jeffrey Epstein?
[00:01:10]  Barr became so petrified, so frightened of being impeached.
[00:01:14]  Who are going to impeach him?
[00:01:15]  I don't know if you remember it.
[00:01:16]  It's not a big moment in history.
[00:01:18]  But they said, we're going to impeach.
[00:01:20]  You know, they play a much rougher game, the left, the lunatics.
[00:01:24]  And they were going to impeach Bill Barr, and he was petrified.
[00:01:28]  Now, how do you not get impeached?
[00:01:30]  Don't do any of this stuff.
[00:01:32]  But he didn't do the job there.
[00:01:34]  I don't know what he did with Epstein, but possibly he did.
[00:01:36]  Do you think it's possible that Epstein was killed?
[00:01:38]  Oh, sure.
[00:01:38]  It's possible.
[00:01:39]  I mean, I don't really believe.
[00:01:41]  I think he probably committed suicide.
[00:01:44]  He had a life with, you know, beautiful homes and beautiful everything.
[00:01:48]  And all of a sudden, he's incarcerated and not doing very well.
[00:01:53]  I would say that he did.
[00:01:56]  But there are those people, there are many people.
[00:01:58]  I think you're one of them, right?
[00:02:00]  But a lot of people think that he was killed.
[00:02:03]  He knew a lot on a lot of people.
[00:02:04]  He was killed.
[00:02:06]  I think the closer you, look, I'm not a conspiracy person at all.
[00:02:09]  I believe everything I hear.
[00:02:11]  But yeah, the closer you look into it, I mean, the Attorney General of the United States, your Attorney General clearly lied about the Epstein death.
[00:02:19]  Yeah, he was.
[00:02:20]  Why?
[00:02:20]  He was, certainly it wasn't well done.
[00:02:23]  They had no cameras.
[00:02:24]  They had no anything.
[00:02:26]  Everybody was sleeping.
[00:02:27]  And, you know, a case could be made.
[00:02:29]  Look, I'm not going to get involved in it.
[00:02:31]  But I can tell you, a case could be made either way.
[00:02:34]  But it certainly wasn't the most well-run place.
[00:02:38]  So the reason I'm asking you is I'm looking at the trajectory since 2015 when you got into politics, you know, for real, and then one.
[00:02:48]  It started with protests against you, massive protests, organized protests by the left, and then it moved to impeachment twice.
[00:02:55]  Right.
[00:02:56]  And now indictment.
[00:02:57]  I mean, the next stage is violence.
[00:02:59]  Are you worried that they're going to try and kill you?
[00:03:01]  Why wouldn't they try and kill you, honestly?
[00:03:03]  They're savage animals.
[00:03:06]  They are people that are sick, really sick.
[00:03:09]  You have great people in the Democrat Party.
[00:03:12]  You have great people that are Democrats.
[00:03:13]  Most of the people in our country are fantastic, and I'm representing everybody.
[00:03:17]  I'm not just Republicans or Conservatives.
[00:03:19]  I represent everybody.
[00:03:20]  I'm the president of everybody.
[00:03:22]  But I've seen what they do.
[00:03:23]  I've seen the lengths that they go to.
[00:03:25]  When they make up the Russia, Russia, Russia, when that's exposed and they go down and Barr should have gone after them and other people should have gone after them.
[00:03:32]  And they did very late because the Durham report came out.
[00:03:36]  It was fairly good.
[00:03:37]  It could have been a lot tougher, I guess, but it was fairly good.
[00:03:40]  But it explained how corrupt it was.
[00:03:43]  I'll tell you who did a great job was the Inspector General Horowitz.
[00:03:47]  He did a phenomenal report.
[00:03:48]  You didn't have to go to Durham.
[00:03:49]  He did it on Comey and on, I guess, McCabe and some others.
[00:03:53]  And it was a vicious, it was basically a true report, how bad they are.
[00:03:58]  But these people are sick people.
[00:04:00]  These are people that I think they hate our country.
[00:04:05]  You want to know the truth.
[00:04:07]  When you see open borders, when you see these policies that they have, and so many other things, it's so sad to see.
[00:04:14]  You know, we have a country that's very fragile right now.
[00:04:17]  I've never seen, I will say, look, I ran in 16, which was 15, but I ran in 16, election in 2016, and there was tremendous spirit.
[00:04:29]  In 20, there was even more spirit.
[00:04:31]  We got many millions of, we got millions and millions more votes.
[00:04:34]  You know, it wasn't even a contest.
[00:04:35]  People said, well, what'd you think of 20?
[00:04:37]  I said, we did much better.
[00:04:38]  We did.
[00:04:39]  You got to base it on the number of votes.
[00:04:40]  We got many more votes in 20 than we did in 16.
[00:04:44]  Even coming down here, just the people on the road that are just absolutely going crazy.
[00:04:51]  And the reason is, I think they like me, and I know they love my policies.
[00:04:55]  I hope they like me too.
[00:04:56]  You know, a lot of people say they don't like me, but they like my policy.
[00:04:59]  I think they like me.
[00:05:00]  But I have never seen spirit like it is right now.
[00:05:04]  And the reason is because crooked Joe Biden is so bad.
[00:05:08]  He's the worst president in the history of our country.
[00:05:11]  I don't think he's going to make it to the gate, but you never know.
[00:05:15]  But he's a corrupt person, so corrupt that I took the name off Hillary.
[00:05:19]  You know, I don't do two people at one time.
[00:05:20]  I took the crooked Hillary and I made it.
[00:05:22]  I retired the net.
[00:05:23]  It was a good day for her.
[00:05:25]  I bet she was very happy.
[00:05:27]  And I used it for Joe because it's Crooked Joe.
[00:05:29]  But Joe is really...
[00:05:31]  But you don't think he's going to make it to November of 2015?
[00:05:33]  Well, I think he's worse mentally than he is physically, and physically, he's not exactly a triathlete.
[00:05:40]  So do you have a preference in, assuming you're the Republican nominee and all goes as you plan it to go, do you have a preference in who you run against?
[00:05:50]  In many ways, I'd love to run against him because his record's so bad.
[00:05:54]  You know, it's still horrible when you look at inflation and everything else.
[00:05:57]  But others also have very bad records.
[00:06:00]  I mean, California's a bad record.
[00:06:01]  So, you know, should it be Gavin or should it be somebody else?
[00:06:05]  When I look at San Francisco, what's happened to that incredible city?
[00:06:09]  That was one of the greatest cities in the world just a short while ago.
[00:06:12]  And now it's very sad when you look at it, Los Angeles.
[00:06:16]  Every city, practically, all the Democrat-run cities, you know, Republican-run cities are doing very nicely because they arrest people when you have crimes.
[00:06:26]  And they don't go after political candidates because they think it's good.
[00:06:30]  You know, I mean, it's like been amazing.
[00:06:32]  My poll numbers are the highest I've ever had.
[00:06:35]  But because people understand it.
[00:06:37]  Can I ask you, that gets back to my original question.
[00:06:40]  So if the protest didn't work, you got elected anyway.
[00:06:43]  Impeachment didn't work twice, obviously.
[00:06:47]  Indictment is not working.
[00:06:49]  Your poll numbers go up.
[00:06:50]  When they rated Mar-a-Lago in August of last year, your numbers went up.
[00:06:55]  They can indict you 20 times, and you're not going to lose the Republican primary because of that.
[00:06:59]  Well, it makes it look even more ridiculous.
[00:07:01]  I mean, the four indictments, and maybe there'll be more.
[00:07:04]  I don't know.
[00:07:05]  These people are crazy.
[00:07:06]  But they're counterproductive.
[00:07:07]  So if you chart it out, it's an escalation, is what I'm saying.
[00:07:11]  So what's next?
[00:07:12]  After, you know, trying to put you in prison for the rest of your life, that's not working.
[00:07:14]  So, like, don't they have to kill you now?
[00:07:18]  I think the people of our country don't get enough credit for how smart they are.
[00:07:22]  And I'm not sure I would have said this 10 years ago.
[00:07:26]  But they get it.
[00:07:28]  They really get it.
[00:07:29]  When somebody gets indicted, your poll numbers go down.
[00:07:31]  When somebody gets indicted, you announce, ladies and gentlemen, I'll be leaving to spend time with my family and to fight for the rest of my life on this stuff.
[00:07:40]  But you're out of politics.
[00:07:41]  I got indicted four times.
[00:07:44]  All trivia, nonsense, bullshit.
[00:07:47]  It's all bullshit.
[00:07:48]  It's horrible when you look and you look at what they're doing.
[00:07:53]  The boxes hoax.
[00:07:54]  I'm covered by the Presidential Records Act.
[00:07:56]  I'm allowed to do exactly that.
[00:07:58]  He's not covered, and he's got 25 times the number of boxes.
[00:08:02]  And he's got them stored in Chinatown.
[00:08:04]  He's got him stored in a flimsy garage underneath his Corvette at Penn.
[00:08:09]  And by the way, at Penn he gets millions of dollars.
[00:08:11]  China pays this guy millions of dollars.
[00:08:13]  See, I think he's the most corrupt president we've ever had.
[00:08:17]  And he also has the distinction of being the most incompetent.
[00:08:21]  And I believe both.
[00:08:22]  I mean, he's both incompetent and corrupt.
[00:08:24]  So I actually believe he's compromised because China knows so much about him.
[00:08:29]  They know where the money comes from.
[00:08:30]  They know where it is, who paid it.
[00:08:32]  And they probably paid it.
[00:08:34]  Well, they do pay Penn, and he gets a million dollars.
[00:08:38]  I think he takes $999,000 because he keeps it a little bit under a million, like by a dollar.

=== China's Corrupt President (01:16) ===

[00:08:44]  But he, in many ways, is a Manchurian candidate.
[00:08:47]  We have a Manchurian candidate, and he's afraid to tell Russia to get out of Cuba.
[00:08:53]  He's afraid to tell China to get out of Cuba.
[00:08:56]  He's afraid.
[00:08:56]  China now is building.
[00:08:58]  Think of this.
[00:08:59]  China's building military installations in Cuba.
[00:09:03]  The Cuban population of Miami is not too happy because they're never going to be able to go back.
[00:09:08]  And you don't even hear about it.
[00:09:09]  And the worst culprit is the press, the media, because normally, you know, when I first heard that, that China is building installations in Cuba.
[00:09:18]  And installations means military installations, okay.
[00:09:20]  You know, they said, just some communication.
[00:09:22]  They did that on the islands with Japan.
[00:09:25]  They took the island, they started this massive construction, and they told everybody, including the Japanese.
[00:09:31]  The Japanese have to be very careful.
[00:09:33]  They told everybody that this is a housing development.
[00:09:36]  They're going to build a housing development.
[00:09:38]  And I said, how come the runway is 20,000 feet long?
[00:09:40]  You know, private jets need 4,000 feet.
[00:09:45]  They don't need 20,000 feet.
[00:09:46]  The big ones need 20,000 feet.
[00:09:48]  They don't even need 20.
[00:09:50]  And I looked at the runway.
[00:09:51]  I said, that's the largest runway ever built, both in width and length, for housing development.
[00:09:58]  There's nobody that has a plane that big.
