00:00:00.000 Well, it's also, I mean, it's interesting that you say that story because I hear so many of those from people.
00:00:04.000 And even as I've seen it, whether it's people that have worked with us forever or whatever he's done that's unique.
00:00:08.000 But, you know, actually, I thought it was, you know, perhaps his greatest maybe political weakness was that he never wanted to show his empathetic side.
00:00:17.000 No! I'm dealing with Russia.
00:00:19.000 I'm dealing with Iran. I can't be soft.
00:00:22.000 I'm like, you don't have to be soft with them, but like show that side.
00:00:26.000 But he still had that old school sort of dramatic, like whatever it was.
00:00:29.000 Yeah, I don't know how he grew up.
00:00:31.000 He actually has so much more of that empathy that I think you needed for suburban women.
00:00:38.000 But he was like, nope, we're on a world stage.
00:00:39.000 We are literally, whether we're at war or just...
00:00:42.000 Much closer to it with someone else.
00:00:44.000 I'm never going to show weakness.
00:00:46.000 And I was actually like, man, I wish you would do this.
00:00:48.000 I wish people got to...
00:00:49.000 So we were flying up.
00:00:51.000 We're going to do... He's up for re-election.
00:00:53.000 We're flying up to New Hampshire.
00:00:55.000 He's going to do one of his rallies.
00:00:57.000 As we're going, he gets word that two Americans were killed and their bodies were coming back to Dover.
00:01:04.000 And so we go up to the rally.
00:01:05.000 He walks back to us. He goes, I'm cutting the rally short because I'm going to be there for that family.
00:01:10.000 And so he did the rally.
00:01:11.000 He cut it short. And most of the members stayed.
00:01:13.000 I flew with him. And when you go back to Dover, so I walk in and there are young Marines, a very young mother or wife.
00:01:21.000 She is in a place.
00:01:22.000 She doesn't believe her husband's dead.
00:01:24.000 And he consults her.
00:01:26.000 He goes out to the field.
00:01:29.000 It is raining. You do not have an umbrella.
00:01:32.000 He sits there as a respect for these men who lost their lives.
00:01:36.000 Was he taking his what? Not once.
00:01:38.000 And you know what though? He's consoling the family.
00:01:42.000 We go through all that.
00:01:43.000 We get back on the plane.
00:01:44.000 And he walks in.
00:01:46.000 And this is where he won't ever show.
00:01:47.000 I can see in his eyes.
00:01:49.000 And he said, those men should not have to die in vain.
00:01:53.000 Why do we have...
00:01:54.000 I mean, and this is the part that people don't see, and I wish they did.
00:01:59.000 I've literally tried, but again, you're...
00:02:00.000 You know as a son, you see.
00:02:01.000 But I've watched him, too, the pride he has in his children.
00:02:05.000 And this is what I'll say, too.
00:02:06.000 Look, raising a family is not easy.
00:02:09.000 You know, you're a great father. But they don't see him as a father.
00:02:12.000 They don't see him as a grandfather.
00:02:13.000 I see your kids walk up and...
00:02:14.000 It doesn't matter what they're...
00:02:16.000 But you know what?
00:02:19.000 You think of your life, okay?
00:02:21.000 He was successful. He comes from a successful life.
00:02:24.000 I've watched all you kids as brothers and sisters love one another.
00:02:29.000 You're not into drugs.
00:02:31.000 You don't have problems. You don't have laptops.
00:02:33.000 You don't have these other things. According to the press, I'm really into drugs.
00:02:37.000 No one's ever called me low energy, but I get these.
00:02:40.000 But you know what? I've been around you guys privately.
00:02:43.000 It is a real family that has real love for one another.
00:02:46.000 And really, it stems of what he did as a father.
00:02:51.000 I appreciate that. Yeah, no, I want him to show some of that.
00:02:55.000 But, you know, again, you're not going to...
00:02:57.000 Hey, there were times I probably also didn't want him tweeting.
00:02:59.000 And people are like, have you ever thought about maybe asking him...
00:03:01.000 No, I never thought of that. I never thought of...
00:03:03.000 Everybody would always say that.
00:03:05.000 You're on CNN in 20 minutes.
00:03:06.000 Like, what are the talking points? It's like, I don't know, man.
00:03:09.000 You're on your own. Just go figure it out.
00:03:10.000 I would tell him this. I would say...
00:03:12.000 We'd be talking, oh, that'd be a good tweet.
00:03:14.000 I said, you know, my mom used to tell me in the summer, if you ate, you had to wait 30 minutes before you get in the pool.
00:03:20.000 Why don't we wait 30 minutes on this tweet?
00:03:24.000 Then he'd look at me and he goes, I wouldn't be sitting in this seat if I took you in the pool.
00:03:27.000 And there's truth to that. That's the other thing that people have got to understand.
00:03:30.000 You sometimes have to take, you know, that good with it.
00:03:32.000 The success comes from it. He was a disruptor.
