The Great America Show - ERIC TRUMP SAYS THE AMERICAN POLITICAL SYSTEM IS TWISTED AND DEMENTED

00:00:00.000 Hello, everybody. I'm Lou Dobbs. Welcome to The Great America Show. Great to have you with us.

00:00:05.360 Our special guest today is Eric Trump. We'll be talking with Eric about the Marxist Dems

00:00:11.260 persecution of President Trump over the past almost six years. Think of that and what the

00:00:17.340 Trump family has been through and are still going through because of the radical Dems

00:00:22.580 venal politics of personal destruction. And we'll take up the question of whether President Trump

00:00:28.700 will run in 2024. I don't suppose it's much of a mystery or secret about my preferences,

00:00:35.820 but believe me when I say I can't imagine this man who loves America and our people so much

00:00:42.140 not taking up this challenge. And I'm sure most Americans know he's the only man to handle the

00:00:48.880 immense responsibility, challenges, and threats that face this nation. Eric will tell us how he

00:00:56.000 feels about all of that and his father's decision and a lot more. But first, President Biden,

00:01:02.500 who's gone soft on China, obviously, doesn't want Speaker Pelosi to go to Taiwan. Biden wants to

00:01:09.720 kowtow to the communist Chinese who are threatening military action if the Speaker goes ahead with their 0.95

00:01:16.200 visit to Taiwan. Biden says the military doesn't think the timing is particularly good. Biden, as I said,

00:01:24.020 has gone soft on China. And he seems perfectly comfortable allowing Xi Jinping to dictate

00:01:31.400 American foreign policy. We'll see whether Pelosi agrees with him. Speaking of China,

00:01:38.420 Chinese communist-linked firms are buying up farmland in this country worth billions of dollars

00:01:44.400 all across America. And they're particularly fond, it seems, of property in proximity to not only farms

00:01:51.240 and processing plants, but U.S. military bases as well. And what is the Biden administration doing

00:01:59.060 about all this? Not a single thing. Not even talking about it. And so it goes with the Biden White House.

00:02:07.340 Let's turn now to our guest today, Eric Trump, who runs the Trump Organization and spends at least

00:02:13.560 some of his time on a few weekends on stage with his father at Trump rallies. Eric, it's great to have

00:02:20.360 you back here with us on The Great America Show and also to see your father crushing it in the most

00:02:25.560 recent polls, by far the strongest performance of any prospective nominees. Your reaction?

00:02:33.320 Well, listen, Lou, I think that's right. I mean, at the end of the day, it's his agenda.

00:02:36.560 The Republican Party was a party that was in steep decline. I think you know that better than anybody

00:02:41.000 coming out of the George Bush years and everything else. They were all rhino Republicans. They never took a 0.97

00:02:46.580 stance on anything. Their policy positions became weak. And my father really changed the Republican

00:02:50.340 Party. I mean, he became he made the Republican Party be become the, you know, the party of the

00:02:54.720 working class person in this country. Look how Hispanic, you know, votes have swayed. I mean,

00:03:02.380 you know, we're over 50 50 in a Republican Party that would never happened before. Look at what's

00:03:07.500 happening on the border right now in terms of all kind of the towns and counties along our southern

00:03:11.740 border. Those were deep, deep, deep blue counties. And they're all deep, deep, deep red counties.

00:03:16.900 Now, look at states like Florida. I mean, you know, my home state now, it's it used to be a

00:03:22.080 swing state. I mean, it was a close swing state. You saw that, obviously, with, you know, Bush and

00:03:25.640 Gore. You saw it, you know, tons of times now. You know, Florida is no longer a swing state. It's a

00:03:30.980 very, very red state. And that's all because of Donald Trump. It's because of his policies,

00:03:36.080 because of his reforms. It's because of his American first agenda. You know,

00:03:40.880 it's a very different agenda than traditional Republicans have had over the years. They never,

00:03:44.520 you know, fought against, you know, China ripping us off. They never said a damn thing about border

00:03:49.480 security. They frankly ignored the problem that we had. They, you know, it's so many issues. I mean,

00:03:54.980 so many countries around the world were ripping us off, and they did absolutely nothing about it.

00:03:59.720 And I mean, look what my father did in the Middle East, right? And he's one Republican who didn't want

00:04:03.460 to fight endless wars. He just wanted to go out and out there and, you know, knock the hell out of the

00:04:08.320 bad guys, which he did better than any person. I mean, he took out ISIS. He took out, you know,

00:04:12.600 now obviously Biden's given their all back, but he did a phenomenal job. I mean, look what he did

00:04:17.380 in fixing the VA. Look what he did. You know, best unemployment numbers in the history of our

00:04:23.040 country under my father. You know, best economic numbers. I mean, I could go on and on. Look where

00:04:27.500 inflation was. But my father changed the party. And so there's no question that he's still the king

00:04:33.640 president of the party. I mean, at the end of the day, it's really his platform and every other

00:04:37.840 candidate that you have out there, you know, running for any feet. Frankly, Lou, they're running

00:04:43.000 off of Donald Trump's agenda, Donald Trump's platform, and in a party that Donald Trump revitalized.

00:04:50.800 And if those candidates are honest, they give credit to President Trump. They define themselves

00:04:56.940 as America first candidates and embrace, make America great again. The ones who don't do that,

00:05:05.740 and I'm not even going to mention their names, but it's just silly because they're aping

00:05:11.740 the president, his words, his agenda. And, you know, they do it at the same time they don't

00:05:18.560 mention. Now, you talked about a number of his accomplishments there in quick order. But if you

00:05:24.700 look at his record as president of the United States, he is singular in what he did in four

00:05:31.640 years as president of the United States. There's no one in history who's done what he has done

00:05:37.180 in the first year. And they have to say it. They have to own it. They should be embracing it

00:05:44.340 because that is performance. Promises made and promises kept. Your father scared the dickens out

00:05:51.520 of the deep state, the permanent bureaucracy, Wall Street, and the Chamber of Commerce and

00:05:57.440 Business Roundtable because he did exactly what he said he would do. It's remarkable.

00:06:03.400 Well, you know what, Lou? I go out there, you know, I do a couple rallies myself every month,

00:06:07.980 and, you know, I go speak at, you know, beautiful churches. And, you know, I'm still active.

00:06:12.780 Obviously, you know, my nuts and bolts are, I run our company, and I love the real estate stuff. But,

00:06:17.560 you know, when I go out on stage and you'll have, you know, three, four thousand people that will

00:06:21.600 literally stand up and start chanting, we love you, right? And then that message is being directed at

00:06:25.720 my father, but also I think our entire family. That goes so far beyond a political movement. I mean,

00:06:31.360 when else in politics have you ever seen that? What candidate has ever, you know, seen that level

00:06:36.400 of emotion and passion and love and kind of determination? And, you know, he's one of them.

00:06:43.300 I mean, he's an American who's fighting on behalf of America, and people absolutely love him for that.

00:06:49.220 No one else has that. And it's really interesting. You kind of mentioned, you know, kind of the

00:06:52.820 rhino Republicans. There's plenty of them. But it's really interesting. If you actually go back and name

00:06:57.240 those rhino Republicans take over the last six years, and you see where they are now, 1.00

00:07:02.240 it's always the people who went against him. They're no longer in the political equation.

00:07:06.680 I mean, Liz Cheney's going to be one of those very soon in Wyoming. I mean, you're seeing that right

00:07:10.120 now, right? But I mean, how many others, Lou, could you mention off the top of your head,

00:07:15.200 right, who were kind of these, you know, kind of, I don't want to use the word half pregnant 0.98

00:07:20.220 because it's a little bit, but they were. They weren't quite there. Or they were just actively nasty,

00:07:26.480 and they never pulled it through. And then you have these people who went out, and they loved

00:07:30.640 the American First agenda, and they embraced it, and they believed it, and they campaigned off of it.

00:07:34.240 Frankly, so many of, you know, the candidates that are in politics right now actually got into

00:07:39.680 politics because of my father, you know, because they were inspired by his message. And those are

00:07:44.960 the candidates that are doing incredible. Like, look at the Ronnie Jacksons of the world and so many

00:07:49.300 others. And I mean, these are people who have developed incredible names for themselves. Look at Jim

00:07:53.680 Jordan and how he's embraced the, you know, I mean, it's really, really been wild to see. But

00:07:58.920 the people who didn't embrace the message are the people who kind of tried to play it, you know,

00:08:03.260 down the middle. You know, they always crashed and burned. And it normally didn't take them that

00:08:07.100 long to fall out of politics and, you know, and kind of die a political death.

00:08:11.560 Well, and one richly deserved for those rhinos and who thought they could just sort of coast

00:08:20.060 along, draft along, and not open their mouths or stand up for anything or anyone. They really

00:08:27.440 are repugnant, and the American people are wise to it all now. The rhinos are no longer the,

00:08:33.640 just the liberal wing of the Republican Party. They're traitors. And there's one name that comes

00:08:39.680 to mind over that six years, obviously, and that is Paul Ryan. I tell people all the time,

00:08:45.100 if Paul Ryan had one ounce of the decency that he pretended to possess, if he had one ounce of

00:08:53.380 courage that President Trump possessed, we wouldn't have seen the next six years of this, all of this

00:09:02.940 attack on him, your family. It would have been over because Paul Ryan is the one who refused to

00:09:10.680 give Devin Nunes subpoena power to go after those people who were lying through their teeth. And we

00:09:16.880 all knew it from 2016 on about the Trump presidency and Russian collusion. And no man is more responsible,

00:09:27.680 and I'm including the Clinton campaign and everything else. If Ryan had had the guts to stand

00:09:32.540 up for this president instead of assail him, undercut him, we would have had quite a different

00:09:37.800 period of history. I don't know whether you agree, but that's my view.

00:09:42.680 I completely agree. I mean, listen, I was smack in the middle of that. I was one that was getting calls

00:09:46.980 from reporters saying, you know, I hear you have secret servers in the basement of Trump Tower,

00:09:51.100 which is coincidentally, you know, where I worked. And I'm saying, we don't have secret servers connected to a

00:09:57.260 bank in Russia called Alpha Bank. We don't do any business in Russia. We have no banks in Russia.

00:10:02.360 I mean, you know, and by the way, you don't keep servers in basements. That's pretty bad because

00:10:05.660 basements can flood, right? So, you know, none of your story really makes a whole lot of sense.

00:10:09.980 But I mean, you know, you had these guys, you know, Shiffman and, you know, your Sussman go out and,

00:10:14.760 you know, conjure up these ridiculous stories. And, you know, Michael went and he went into FBI and he

00:10:21.100 peddled this nonsense for the benefit of his client. And they call that the October surprise, Lou, because,

00:10:26.360 you know, why do you call it an October surprise? Because you don't have enough time before election

00:10:30.260 day and very early November to rebut their claims. And so their damage is done. And but think about

00:10:35.860 what Hillary Clinton actually did in this one. And I agree with you with Paul Ryan, absolutely being

00:10:39.980 kind of complacent, doing nothing about it. But, you know, she pitted two nuclear, the two largest 0.98

00:10:45.480 nuclear superpowers in the world against each other for the sake of her getting a couple extra votes. 0.95

00:10:50.220 I mean, think about the demonic nature, the, you know, the sick nature of that. You know,

00:10:56.260 I mean, you have two world leaders who could almost not talk because this whole thing was

00:11:01.060 hanging over their head. Now it's all made up. We had absolutely nothing to do with Russia.

00:11:05.140 It was all made up lies. Everybody now realizes it was a made up lie and people are getting

00:11:09.260 indicted because of it. But I mean, you literally had two nuclear superpowers who couldn't talk to

00:11:14.020 each other. And that were, you know, at odds. And, you know, all because somebody wanted to

00:11:19.960 levy a couple extra votes. I mean, that's a political system for everybody listening. That's

00:11:23.880 a political system in the United States. It's sick. It's demented. It's twisted. You couldn't

00:11:28.720 even I mean, you couldn't make this up in the worst book that you've ever read. I mean, people would

00:11:32.800 say, oh, that's not believable. It's actually too far fetched. And but it's not for these people.

00:11:36.860 And Paul Ryan absolutely was part of that. And there were a lot of others. But, you know,

00:11:41.020 the difference is my father taught these people how to fight. He taught the Republicans how to

00:11:45.620 fight. And they impeached him the first time and they impeached him the second time. And he won

00:11:49.540 the first time and he won the second time. And you saw what they tried to do to Kavanaugh. I mean,

00:11:52.920 they tried to destroy the guy's life. Right. And, you know, go on and on. Like they're worried

00:11:58.900 about Donald Trump. It's why they're doing the January 6th stuff right now. I mean, you had all the

00:12:03.620 Democrats that burned down three quarters of the country, including incredible churches, historic

00:12:07.760 churches in Washington, D.C., right across from, you know, the White House and, you know, which had

00:12:13.240 been visited by every single president in the history of this country. You had Democrats burn

00:12:18.580 those churches down. No one no one gives a damn. But but yet they want to see one thing. They want

00:12:22.600 to try and disqualify, you know, Donald Trump in any way, shape or form every single day over the

00:12:27.700 last five years. I've gotten subpoenas either from, you know, the House or the Senate or from

00:12:33.020 DA's or AG's in, you know, various states, mainly New York. Right. I mean, they have one goal in mind,

00:12:39.100 and that's to try and take Donald Trump out however they can. If they didn't, they wouldn't

00:12:43.360 have impeached him the first time. They would have impeached him the second time. Right. I mean,

00:12:46.900 that that's their weaponization of politics. They tried to make up the Russia hoax to try and take,

00:12:51.780 you know, Donald Trump out of politics. And every single time they do this, Lou, I think his base gets

00:12:56.920 stronger and stronger because they realize the system for what it is. And I'm sorry to be long winded with

00:13:02.040 this whole thing. But, you know, 2016, he always had this chant and it was, you know, drain the

00:13:07.300 swamp. And everybody thought that drain the swamp meant that, you know, Nancy Pelosi and everybody

00:13:10.480 else who had been in politics for 40 years, get them the hell out. Right. I mean, Joe Biden has

00:13:15.060 been in politics 20 years longer than I've been alive, 15 years longer than I've been alive.

00:13:18.700 Right. Think about that. And I'm a 40 year old guy. And, you know, so everybody kind of thought

00:13:23.000 that, you know, these chants drain the swamp and getting these people out. It's really funny looking

00:13:27.820 back now. It actually means so much more than that. It's getting the people out that have been

00:13:32.580 there for the 40 or 50 years. But it's also stopping the massive corruption that now everybody

00:13:38.760 can see in government that everybody was, you know, not wise to. If you ever would have thought

00:13:43.300 that the DOJ and the FBI and all these people were part of this Russian hoax and you were to 0.75

00:13:48.320 mention that to me in 2016, I would have rolled my eyes and said, give me a break. And now everybody

00:13:52.560 sees, you know, what so many of these people, the Lisa Pages were doing and the Comeys were

00:13:57.780 doing. And I mean, go down the list of these, you know, very crooked actors and their part

00:14:04.260 in one of the greatest scandals in American history. And, you know, my father has done

00:14:08.640 a lot to educate America on the actual, you know, really the system that we have in DC and

00:14:13.620 how dishonest it is and, you know, and how one political party specifically weaponizes that

00:14:19.320 system in every way, shape or form they can for their own political advantage.

00:14:23.100 And if anybody has any questions about how powerful the deep state, and I've been warning

00:14:27.220 Americans for 20 years about the deep state and about these issues, if you have any doubt

00:14:36.520 about it, think about this. President Trump was the victim of the deep state and the Democratic

00:14:43.020 National Committee just about six months before Election Day in 2016. For six months, they went

00:14:52.120 after and framed his, the man, he had chosen to be his national security advisor. And they got away

00:14:59.180 with it and would have gotten away with it if it had not been for some particular quirks. And I will

00:15:04.940 give Sidney Powell, the defense attorney, great credit for her role in that. I will give her less

00:15:10.860 credit for what transpired after that. But at that moment in which she stood before Emmett

00:15:15.780 Sullivan and called out the Justice Department in that court, that made all the difference in the

00:15:20.860 world for a great American, General Michael Flynn, who was again exonerated. This is what the

00:15:28.940 president had to deal with and the Trump family. And by the time he was in office, the plot was

00:15:35.560 already underway to create a special counsel. A special counsel investigation ensued after an

00:15:43.280 almost full year of the FBI investigation, then came almost two full years of special counsel

00:15:49.180 investigation before the, and those were all failures. So they tried an impeachment that failed,

00:15:55.320 they tried another impeachment, as Eric just said. And the persecution of Trump and his family

00:16:01.980 goes on to this very day, doesn't it? Yeah, there's no question. I mean, I might be

00:16:07.560 one of the most subpoenaed people in the history of this country. I mean, every single day you'd have

00:16:11.660 another, you know, and what was really interesting, Lou, is, you know, I wasn't political, you know,

00:16:16.960 I knew nothing about politics when we first entered this race. What's really interesting is I would get,

00:16:21.640 we'd get subpoenas, but I would read about those subpoenas three days before on the Washington Post.

00:16:25.700 So what you'd have is you'd have some, you know, congressman or woman who would, you know,

00:16:30.140 come up with some subpoena. They'd send you some nasty letter, but you would read about that three

00:16:34.500 days before you actually got the letter, meaning, you know, this was all a PR play. That's why they

00:16:39.680 do this. They don't do it because they didn't give a damn. They do it because they want the PR

00:16:43.580 associated with it, right? And it's horrible. I mean, it's horrible. It's every one that you can

00:16:48.740 possibly imagine. But, you know, despite impeachment one, impeachment two, the Kavanaugh, you know,

00:16:55.100 craziness, everything else, all the investigations, all the subpoenas, everything else. I mean,

00:16:59.320 look what Donald Trump did. The greatest economy. I mean, the Dow started at 17,000 when he was in

00:17:04.280 office, just over 17,000 and went to, what, 32,000? Lowest unemployment, lowest female unemployment, 0.99

00:17:10.080 lowest African-American unemployment, lowest youth unemployment. You know, I can go on and on.

00:17:15.220 Biggest tax cuts in the history of this nation, you know, right to try. Look what he did with vets and,

00:17:21.320 and, you know, reforming the VA, but also giving, you know, veterans a private option. Look at the

00:17:26.280 moving of the, you know, the embassy in Jerusalem. What he did to protect religious freedom, which

00:17:30.060 was totally under assault. I mean, before my father came into office, you couldn't even say,

00:17:33.420 Merry Christmas. You'd get, you know, you'd get shunned and ostracized. I mean, if you said the

00:17:37.780 Christmas tree, you'd get, you'd get killed. It's, you know, why aren't you calling it a holiday

00:17:40.920 bush? And, you know, my, when my father brought back religious freedom in this country, people don't 0.89

00:17:44.880 even realize that. But, you know, I mean, what he did to protect organized religion in the United

00:17:50.060 States across the board is something that gets overlooked, you know, every single day. I mean,

00:17:55.060 he did a phenomenal job. He rebuilt our military. I mean, you had fighter planes that couldn't even

00:17:58.800 take off because they didn't have parts. I mean, look what he did to reform the military and

00:18:03.680 everything else. I mean, he knocked the hell out of ISIS and, you know, and, I mean, peace in the

00:18:08.220 Middle East. And he brought countries together who had never spoken before. You had planes that were

00:18:13.240 taking off in Saudi Arabia, landing in Israel for the first time. I mean, that never happened ever

00:18:17.420 before because of cultural differences. And, I mean, the man did an incredible job and a hundred other

00:18:22.300 things, right? He was bringing back manufacturing. He went to, you know, he took on China for the

00:18:26.520 first time, which no one else did. He built 500 miles of border wall, which is equivalent of

00:18:31.160 effectively Boston to Richmond, Virginia. And he did that despite having to fight these animals

00:18:36.320 every single day, despite having to fight off nonsense, garbage every single day. And

00:18:40.840 the man's incredible. I mean, he's really miraculous. And what the Democrats tried to do to underpin

00:18:48.360 our society, underpin our form of government, to hinder a man for their own political gain

00:18:54.820 at the detriment of America is just shocking. I mean, it's awful.

00:19:00.500 It is shocking. And we should be used to it. We've watched it for now, what, six years,

00:19:07.400 just under six years of unrelenting persecution of a man who did more for this country in four years

00:19:15.580 than any other president in history, period. And it is outrageous that there is no Republican

00:19:23.800 Party leadership that stands up and walks over to Pelosi's office, to Schumer's office,

00:19:30.300 and Biden's little office at the White House. There's not one of them with the guts, the principle,

00:19:37.720 the courage, the integrity to stand up and say, you will not treat any citizen this way,

00:19:43.620 let alone the president of the United States. Does that seem so, uh, is that unreasonable of me to

00:19:50.960 expect that from leadership? You know, Lou, if it was any other world other than politics, no. Um,

00:19:57.200 you know, it's, I have to say, I've, I've always, I've always been my father's best friend. We've,

00:20:02.500 we're, we're inseparable. We're incredibly close. Um, and I've always had so much respect and admiration

00:20:07.300 for everything when we were building buildings together, when we were doing everything together. But

00:20:11.460 seeing the fight that he had to go through in Washington, D.C., um, and seeing the facts,

00:20:16.380 pretty much as you're saying, I mean, I think you're doing a beautiful job saying it is something

00:20:19.080 that's generally overlooked by everybody. He took on those fights himself. And I would caveat that

00:20:25.160 there, there were, there were a couple of good Republicans around who would go on TV every single

00:20:28.460 night and they would fight. And there were some great people like you. And then you had his family,

00:20:33.100 um, people like me who go out there and fight every single day. And, but it was very,

00:20:37.160 very small, a little small army, um, relative to what we were up against, which was pretty much

00:20:42.280 the entire United States government, the weaponization of the political system, um,

00:20:46.020 an entirely corrupt, uh, media apparatus is effectively the lobbying arm for the democratic

00:20:50.800 party. I mean, you know, minus literally, you know, negative 92%, um, you know, media coverage,

00:20:58.680 um, every story was misconstrued and yeah, it's, it's incredible. And, and that little small group,

00:21:05.480 um, took on the entire system, the entire establishment. And I would say that that small

00:21:10.160 group won. Um, we won, we won, we wanted each of those corners and now all of these people are

00:21:15.400 being exposed and America has become totally educated, um, as to the games that these people

00:21:20.840 play. Um, and frankly, uh, so many of the problems that we face in society and around the world and

00:21:26.260 from foreign policy perspective and from other perspectives. Um, and now you look at the dichotomy

00:21:31.420 between, you know, Donald Trump, um, who I think will go down as greatest president's country

00:21:35.460 has had, or at least, um, at the very top of the list, um, versus Joe Biden, um, who can't

00:21:41.700 get a single thing right. All right. I mean, listen, you have to give, uh, most presidents

00:21:46.140 have something that's strong at, maybe they're strong at foreign policy. Maybe they've, you

00:21:49.560 know, um, you know, they're, you know, uh, good speakers, um, you know, they have something

00:21:54.120 that they're good at. Maybe they have a good family. You know, this guy has, he, he, he literally

00:21:59.200 cannot check a single box. He's horrible on the economy. Um, he's a horrible public

00:22:04.600 speaker. Um, he's certainly not checking that family box because, you know, uh, that's clearly

00:22:09.500 going wrong for all the reasons that, that we otherwise know. Um, you know, he can't get

00:22:14.620 out, he can't get out of Afghanistan is, is, you know, the kind of military decisions have

00:22:18.820 been disastrous. His border policy is horrendous. Look what's happening with inflation right now

00:22:24.860 with the markets. I mean, you know, I mean, he, he can't chalk up a single victory, not

00:22:31.220 a single one. I mean, there's not a single redeeming. Like I would challenge anybody listening

00:22:35.580 right now, give us a single redeeming factor of, of Joe Biden and you couldn't do it. Not

00:22:42.440 one. Can you name a single policy of this Biden administration that is in the interest of

00:22:51.640 the United States of America in the interest of the American people, not a single policy,

00:22:58.440 not a decision taken, not an executive order or administrative order that he has issued is

00:23:05.080 in the national interest or the interest of the American people. If you can name one, anybody,

00:23:10.200 I'd love to hear it because this man is working full time, uh, for the, for, for his masters,

00:23:17.780 wherever they may be, uh, and not at all for you and me. Well, there's no question about

00:23:23.840 that. And then the rest of his cabinet is not working. Um, you know, one of the things

00:23:26.860 that always inspired me about my father, he was the first guy down every single day.

00:23:30.120 And this is by the way, in, in, you know, kind of, you know, our family, when we began

00:23:34.060 all work together, first person in the office, he was the last person to leave. He was the

00:23:37.780 exact same way in the oval office. I'd get, I'd get calls from him at five 30 in the morning

00:23:41.720 and I would get calls from him at midnight at night, you know, checking in. And I mean,

00:23:46.560 he never, he never stopped. He had energy and he'd walk out of the oval office. He'd go up to

00:23:50.940 the press junket. He would give an interview. He would fly to Andrews air force base. He'd give

00:23:54.700 another interview. He'd be working on every single plane going around the world. I mean,

00:23:58.600 I don't care if he came back from Andrews at two o'clock in the morning, he would walk up to the

00:24:03.100 press. He would answer questions. I mean, where is this guy and where's his cabinet? I mean,

00:24:08.180 you know, Pete Buttigieg, when you had the biggest supply chain problems, you know, in history,

00:24:13.060 this country was on paternity leave. And, you know, Kamala Harris, when, you know, she's supposed

00:24:17.660 to be taking care of the Southern border. Remember she was the, the borders are, and where did she 0.99

00:24:21.980 go? She went to Vietnam. I mean, if you're supposed to be taking care of a massive problem at the

00:24:26.460 Southern border, I mean, like, why not go to Vietnam? I mean, these people are nowhere to be found.

00:24:32.360 I mean, during the botched Afghanistan withdrawal, where was Biden? I mean, he was in,

00:24:38.180 Delaware riding his bike. I mean, these people don't have the energy. They don't have the

00:24:42.740 charisma. They don't have the fight. They're nowhere to be found. Every single, well, beyond

00:24:48.720 that, I mean, beyond intelligence and bad policy and everything else, but they're not even in the

00:24:54.340 fight, Lou, which, which to me, being commander in chief of the United States is scary as hell.

00:24:58.840 Like, you better be in the fight for this country. Otherwise, find somebody else to do the job.

00:25:01.960 And, you know, you can't be off on maternity leave for, for, for three months when you can't 0.99

00:25:07.100 get baby formula and kids can't get, you know, Christmas presents. There's nothing, you know,

00:25:12.400 a two by four at home Depot costs $16. Like, you know what, maybe you solve that problem or

00:25:16.860 maybe you give it to somebody who can solve that problem. And, you know, America deserves a lot

00:25:22.400 better than this nonsense.

00:25:23.280 I don't believe in any way that this isn't intentional. I don't believe that this is just

00:25:30.220 incompetence or ineptitude. I believe that this president means to destroy America.

00:25:38.060 There's no other explanation for why he would leave our border wide open while sending a hundred 1.00

00:25:43.660 thousand of our troops to Eastern Europe. He, and a president who had an opportunity at three,

00:25:50.920 points to stop Putin, to withdraw his policy initiative, to bring Ukraine into NATO, to once

00:26:00.000 seeing that Putin was serious and putting his troops on the Eastern border of Ukraine, that

00:26:06.100 he could have stopped there and relented. Uh, and then one year, one month after the beginning

00:26:12.740 of the war, February 24th, a month later, Zelensky wants to negotiate with Putin and he tells him

00:26:20.120 no. And the reason there's only one reason he wants war. He wants what he knows will be the

00:26:26.900 result.

00:26:27.900 Well, that war would have never, that war would never happen, Lou, under, under Donald Trump.

00:26:32.600 Um, there's no way they would, there's no way they would have done that. Um, and, and the whole

00:26:37.180 country knows that as well. And as to the Southern border, you're a hundred percent right. And the one 0.89

00:26:41.860 word that never comes into the Southern border, never is fentanyl. And you want to talk about the

00:26:47.460 real pandemic in this country, right? That is the fentanyl crisis. I've literally had three or four

00:26:52.900 people that I've known in the last couple months who have lost children to this, where they are

00:26:57.800 literally, you know, I mean, they're, they're making drugs or stamping, you know, they're stamping

00:27:02.460 things like, um, you know, Ritalin and things that, you know, certain kids have to take. They're

00:27:08.240 stamping, you know, fentanyl with the, you know, make them look alike drugs. And they're sending them

00:27:12.320 in by the tens and tens and tens of millions. Most of that stuff coming over from China and kids are

00:27:17.640 taking this and they are dropping dead. You have police officers who are, you know, um, you know,

00:27:21.540 picking, picking something up from a house. They go into epileptic shock, um, you know, and are dying

00:27:28.280 because of the fentanyl crisis. It's all coming over the Southern border and we're not doing a damn

00:27:31.940 thing to stop it. And, you know, everything that my father said when he first, you know, went down that

00:27:36.940 escalator in 2016, which is they're sending over, you know, a lot of bad people. There's a lot of

00:27:42.340 bad and good people who are coming over as well. We're just trying to, you know, get a better life,

00:27:45.680 but they're sending over drugs. They're sending over problems. They're sending over gang members.

00:27:51.000 I mean, we're losing kids every single day. And I just, I feel like there's been a world wind of it

00:27:56.840 in the last, you know, two months, as I said, you know, several people that I know personally who have

00:28:01.580 lost children based on this and no one's doing a damn thing about it. And it's not,

00:28:06.940 you know, it's not just taking American jobs and it's not just, you know, um, you know,

00:28:12.440 causing a system and having to pay for a system and a lot of, you know, a lot of programs and

00:28:16.260 everything else, but it's a drug problem that no one's talking about. It's never been worse

00:28:20.940 than it is right now. The drugs are the least expensive they've ever been. They're the deadliest

00:28:26.380 they've ever been. Uh, kids are unexpectedly dying. You know, they're not trying to take fentanyl in

00:28:31.920 so many cases. They're taking something that's laced with it. And, you know, they're trying to

00:28:36.600 kill our children in this nation. And as a guy who has a five-year-old and a, you know,

00:28:40.900 and a three-year-old, I can't tell you how scary that is. And no, no one's even paying attention to

00:28:46.200 it. Or anyone with grandchildren, anyone with children of any age right now, fentanyl to

00:28:52.300 underline what Eric just said, fentanyl is the number one cause of death in the United States of

00:28:58.240 America. The number one cause of death for those between the ages of, think about this,

00:29:04.400 18 and 45 years of age. Almost a generation span is being lost to fentanyl. And when the CDC reports

00:29:16.080 that there are 107,000 overdose deaths, those are not overdose deaths. They are poisonings. And that

00:29:23.380 poison comes straight from China. And that are the precursor drugs that are shipped into Mexico to the

00:29:30.700 cartels, which are working as proxies for China to destabilize the United States. Uh, it is outrageous

00:29:38.880 what we are permitting China to do. Biden is not only soft on China, he is on his knees before Xi

00:29:47.720 Jinping. And it is that straightforward. He is doing nothing with Mexico. I think about it, 0.93

00:29:54.260 Eric, your father taking Manuel, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the president of Mexico and making

00:30:01.720 him a partner in the fight against illegal immigration. This was something that the man,

00:30:07.240 just no one had ever tried. And the next thing we knew there are 26,000 Mexican, uh, national guard

00:30:15.360 and police and army, uh, fighting illegal immigration within Mexico, which was,

00:30:21.780 Lou, it was pretty, it was pretty simple. You know, guess what? You know, as, as Mexico's largest

00:30:26.380 training partner, you know, if you're going to allow millions of people to flood across the

00:30:30.600 southern border, which you can control as well, congratulations, we're not going to buy every

00:30:33.860 single car part from you. We're not going to import this. We're not going to import that. I mean,

00:30:38.240 and guess what? They jumped at the opportunity to help us solve the problem because they know how

00:30:42.300 disastrous that would have been, uh, for their own economy is a very simple solution. It's

00:30:47.240 brilliant. Um, but it was simple and, and, and clearly it worked. Um, and back to the fentanyl,

00:30:52.580 which we, you were, you know, just kind of referencing, I mean, you're right. This is no

00:30:56.720 longer about cartels trying to, you know, you know, make a lot of money. I mean, this is about

00:31:01.220 a society that is trying to kill our youth and destabilize our country. I mean, think about the,

00:31:07.820 you know, uh, the toll that that takes aside from emotionally, which you cannot even comprehend,

00:31:13.340 but financially think about the toll that that takes on a system between, you know, rehab programs

00:31:18.780 and this and, and, um, and parents and, and families. And, um, I mean, you have a country

00:31:25.460 that is trying to poison and kill our youth. This is no longer about, again, you know, cartel in 1980s

00:31:32.760 is trying to smuggle pot across the border to, you know, to make the money and get, you know,

00:31:36.640 youth high. It's very, very different. They're trying to kill our youth and they're not doing

00:31:41.960 anything about it. They're not doing a damn thing about it. This fentanyl problem, I, you know,

00:31:46.200 I, I predict is going to be the biggest problem this nation has, um, you know, societally, um,

00:31:53.020 you know, there's, there's no question it's already probably become, and, and this is not going away,

00:31:57.420 uh, anytime soon, unless we get a real leader back in the white house who, um, will both handle

00:32:02.620 the Southern border and then also handle the bad actors who are promoting this for their own

00:32:07.040 selfish reasons.

00:32:08.900 Let me ask you this. If you had done what Hunter Biden had done, which we know that he's done

00:32:14.680 working with a crooked uncle, uh, cutting your dad in for 10%, uh, how long do you think it would

00:32:24.280 have taken the justice department to bring a case against you?

00:32:27.100 Lou, I'd be in jail for the rest of my life. Um, and here's how I know every single day I've

00:32:32.060 gotten subpoenas, as I mentioned before, for absolutely nothing. You know, please send us

00:32:37.620 every email that has the word the in it and trying to try and conjure up anything that they possibly

00:32:43.160 can, which hunt the magnitude of, you know, of which you've never seen before. And we're really

00:32:48.340 fortunate. We are the most honest, straight, perfect people, right? No drugs for me. I, you know,

00:32:55.220 who I go home to at night. I go home to my wife and my two beautiful children. Before we go to bed

00:33:00.060 every single night, we say three different prayers. I make them tell my, you know, Laura and I what

00:33:04.720 they're thankful for. I'm up at five o'clock in the morning. I'm the first person in my office.

00:33:09.040 We run a beautiful company. We employ thousands and thousands of people, um, around the United

00:33:13.920 States, um, some internationally. Um, and we live a very clean, honest lifestyle. There are no

00:33:21.200 hookers. There are no illegal drugs. There's no illicit tapes. Um, you know, we got out of business,

00:33:29.440 Lou, when my father became president of the United States, you know, Hunter Biden got into business

00:33:34.880 when his father became vice president of the United States. Isn't it amazing? It's, it's nuts. And,

00:33:40.640 and, and I would be in jail. I mean, they try and do that now and they have absolutely nothing.

00:33:47.720 If, if I had laptops from hell, as my father geniusly called it, if I had laptops that had

00:33:53.780 what he had on there, Lou, I, I, I would never see the light of day again. Um, because that's

00:33:58.680 how the system works. It's, um, it's a system that's, um, not balanced. Um, it is very, very,

00:34:06.800 very different. If you're a Republican, you get persecuted. And if you're a, you know, Democrat,

00:34:11.500 you get away with absolutely murder, um, because the system is rigged and it's lopsided and it has

00:34:16.780 to change because I don't think a society can, can literally survive on equal scales of, of justice.

00:34:23.640 I just, you know, don't think you can. I mean, even look at Paul Pelosi right now, right? That's

00:34:27.420 kind of the headline a little bit this week. It should be covered a lot more. It's been covered

00:34:31.020 by guys like you and Fox and, you know, a couple others. But could you imagine if, if, you know,

00:34:37.140 if Trump had, you know, uh, you know, somebody related to them in Congress and we're trading off of

00:34:42.700 things that they knew and, you know, I mean, you know, making tens and tens of millions of dollars

00:34:48.520 every, every time, two weeks before legislation comes out, they buy these massive shares and,

00:34:52.820 you know, all of a sudden, guess what? The stock goes up by 30% based on some legislation that,

00:34:56.500 you know, the United States Congress is passing through. Could you imagine that if a Trump tried

00:35:00.880 to do that? He'd be in jail for any time of trading in about two seconds. It wouldn't even matter if,

00:35:05.820 if, if, if congressmen, you know, or women were technically exempt from it,

00:35:09.200 they would figure out a way they would throw you in jail. And these guys get away with murder.

00:35:14.540 Hey, Paul Pelosi also got away with a, you know, what looks to be a, you know, pretty clear cut DUI.

00:35:19.160 And you think I would have gone away if I was, uh, driving my Porsche and crashed into something.

00:35:23.380 And, uh, you know, it was, uh, with over the legal limit. Of course not. Do you not think my mugshot

00:35:28.500 would be out in about three seconds? Of course it would have been, but you know, his wasn't. I mean,

00:35:33.320 it's, uh, it's hard to believe it's America sometimes. It really, you know,

00:35:38.900 it really is. Well, I'll tell you what I hear in your voice and in your words, the, that you

00:35:45.700 still have all of your energy. You have still your optimistic and bright, uh, outlook. Uh, you also

00:35:54.760 still love your father, uh, and your family and America does too. Uh, it is, it is really something

00:36:03.540 to see how strong your family has been as your father was attacked starting six years ago.

00:36:11.120 It's been unrelenting. I can't even imagine. Uh, I've known some pretty strong people. Uh,

00:36:16.980 I've heard about some pretty strong people. I don't know anybody who could have gone through

00:36:21.380 what your father has. It's one of the reasons I've said, I don't know whether he's going to run

00:36:25.760 in 2024. Uh, but I really think the nation owes him a draft. It should be, uh, you know,

00:36:32.560 uh, by, it should be just by unanimous consent. We want president Trump back because he's earned it.

00:36:39.060 He deserves it. And he has been, uh, viciously attacked, uh, by one party that we should never,

00:36:46.860 ever, uh, certify for any job whatsoever. The Dems are demons. The Dems are evil. And as long as

00:36:55.220 they let the Marxist Dems lead them on this path to hell, uh, I just pray that, uh, they don't take

00:37:01.960 any, anybody with them because that's where they're headed. And so is this country. If we

00:37:07.060 don't come to our senses, we always give our guests the last word, Eric, and I'm going to

00:37:11.700 turn to you for your concluding thoughts. Well, I think there's no question about, um, pretty much

00:37:17.680 everything you just said. And, um, you know, in terms of my father, obviously he'll make that decision.

00:37:21.120 Um, I can tell you as a son, um, I will be by his side. And if he decides to, to jump back into the

00:37:27.240 race, I will be with him every single second of every single day. I will fight by his side. I will

00:37:31.880 be the first person up on that stage. Um, I'll be the first, last one to leave it. Um, the man is

00:37:37.580 incredible. Uh, he's been an incredible father to me. Um, the way they've treated him is, um, unlike

00:37:44.340 anything probably, um, ever seen, um, by any other political person in this country. At least

00:37:51.060 it's very much at the top of the list, Lou, but I will fight with him every single second of every

00:37:55.840 single day. Um, I hope he does it. Um, I think it's the only chance that, that we have because,

00:38:00.960 um, under these people and under some of the rhinos, by the way, Lou, um, we just don't have a

00:38:06.440 chance against, you know, the Chinas and everything we're trying to destroy us every single day. 1.00

00:38:10.120 Um, but you know, as a family, we love red, white, and blue. We love this country. We love

00:38:15.380 our nation. We love our flag. We love our pledge of allegiance. We love God. Um, and we will fight,

00:38:21.000 uh, tooth and nail every single day. Um, you know, subpoena, you know, uh, let them keep on coming

00:38:26.700 because that's exactly what the Democrats will keep on doing. It doesn't matter. We have to save this
