pay 85 of the taxes are leaving and we're taking in illegal [4:15] immigrants so they're wonderful people and all but they're not paying any time they're taking your money [4:23] they're taking your money the people that pay 85 to 90 of your taxes are leaving and you know [4:30] when they go they never come back they never come back nobody calls them nobody does anything nobody [4:38] talks to them nobody says please don't leave we'll give you a tax abate we'll do anything don't leave [4:45] but they're leaving they're going to florida they're going to tennessee they're going to texas they're going [4:51] to south carolina and north carolina they're going all over the place but they're leaving and we can't let [4:56] it happen it's a great place we can't bruce will stop it mike

families we have somebody else we're giving them the [5:18] presidential medal of freedom something we've never done for this reason but the mother is here of a [5:25] great young man and we're going to give him a very special honor the illegal aliens are all over the [5:32] place the people are getting shot left and right the elections are rigged they don't have voter id [5:38] they don't have proof of citizenship think of it we want to get the save america act passed now [5:47] think of the save america it's voter id who's against voter id you ever see the democrat national [6:14] convention i call it the democrat democrat they're democrat but you ever see it they have cards on [6:22] them for the democrat national convention cards like bigger than your chest name address everything [6:30] you want to know about a person they might even have a social security number they have that's to [6:36] get into their convention but for voting you're allowed to go in right it's horrible so it's voter id [6:43] it's not going to be it's proof a little thing called proof of citizenship and it's mail-in voting is [6:49] a disaster if you have military if you're going to be away if you're not feeling well if you're in [6:56] any way disabled absolutely we have it we'll be very generous but generally you got to go and vote otherwise [7:05] it's a rigged system and that in a nutshell is the save america act not very complicated think of it [7:15] voter id think of it voter id proof of citizenship and mail-in ballots are gone except if you need it [7:24] now i added two best ofs no men playing in women's sports has nothing to do with it no men like i'm [7:38] looking at jackson i'd like to know is there any woman in the audience that thinks they can tackle [7:43] that guy because i'd like to meet you i'd like to shake your hand i don't know jackson you think you [7:50] could play against women okay do you think you'd have any problem i don't think so but don't get [7:55] involved jackson don't get he don't get involved jackson don't answer that question no i'm looking [8:01] at the legs he's this beautiful guy's got legs like tree trunks this is not a good thing for women [8:06] this would not be good no it's no good and we don't want open borders where prisoners pour in from [8:15] other countries all over the world they pour in we don't want open borders we don't want sanctuary [8:21] cities where you have sanctuary for criminals we don't want it we don't want transgender [8:28] mutilization of your children if that's okay we don't want it but you know i looked at a story i [8:40] read a story yesterday where the pharmacies they're going out of business they have glass all over the [8:46] place you want toothpaste you have to open up you have to get a clerk to open up the thing and they [8:53] open and they hand them a toothpaste and in the meantime other people are waiting to steal it [8:58] they got a guy they were saying a guy right here mr lutnik said mr lutnik he's a rich guy but he was in a [9:05] store and he noticed when he was in a drugstore the people were with duffel bags they're putting [9:11] crap in a duffel bag and walking and the clerk says you're not supposed to be doing that and the kid [9:16] said the hell with you walks out and if the clerk does anything at all they arrest the clerk how [9:24] screwed up is our country how the hell do you make your money if you got to open up glass expensive [9:31] glass to give somebody a toothbrush or to give somebody some toothpaste that does not sound like [9:38] a good that does not sound like a good business model so you have empty stores the whole thing we [9:44] got to change it now the way you stop that you know how you stopped it you come down hard on those [9:50] people hard in one day you solve that problem all over the country you just come down so hard that [10:02] they never forget it and they'll never do it again they'll never do it again it's horrible what's [10:08] happening is horrible and it's all in the blue cities you know it's all blue the 25 worst cities are blue [10:16] blue blue means democrat that's a new name i came up with you've never heard i was i was thinking [10:24] about this character we have in the house his name is hakeem jeffries and he's a low iq person very low [10:35] iq and i watched what he was saying and what the horrible things he was saying and i said he's a dumb [10:42] guy i said wait a minute he's a democrat that's how i got the name you take the e out you don't use the b [10:50] a lot of people don't know dumb has to be in it actually you don't need it you discard the b but [10:56] you take the e out and you replace it with a u they're dumb they are democrats you know why because [11:03] their policies are dumb their policies are very dumb all of that policies did you see they did an autopsy [11:12] on why they lost the election and they said you lost the election because of trump primarily [11:17] but other than trump you lost the election because you had crappy candidates and you had bad policy [11:24] and they didn't know how to speak properly and they weren't smart people and various other reasons [11:29] they spent 10 million dollars for the autopsy it was called an autopsy and they had typos jackson they [11:36] had typos in every other sentence they had misspelled words they had commas in the wrong location they gave [11:43] him 10 million dollars for the autopsy i could have given him the autopsy without any charge at all [11:50] i said you had one candidate named sleepy joe biden what's a better name sleepy joe biden or crooked [11:59] joe biden ready who likes sleepy joe biden who likes crooked joe biden pretty similar they're both pretty [12:14] good who likes crooked hillary oh she's good anyway but you know we have another problem because we have the [12:25] great law enforcement i met a lot of your law enforcement back there they're incredible but [12:30] law enforcement i love them i got 99 of law enforcement vote can you believe it and we're [12:40] trying to figure out we're trying to figure out who were the one percent we want to figure out who the [12:46] hell were the one percent who would vote for kamala who would vote for sleepy joe but even the police [12:52] are leaving they're going to florida tennessee texas they're going all over the place where they put them [12:59] really where they give them respect the respect they have our respect they have everybody in [13:03] this room's respect but it's this radical turnaround and we better do it fast because we're not going [13:09] to have a new york left and we got to have new york left and you really can guys like mike lawler [13:16] guys like bruce blakeman you put them in they'll turn it around bruce will go down to florida and he'll [13:25] talk to all those companies that are leaving you'll get him to come back he's going to get him back [13:30] it's not easy it's a lot easier to stop him from leaving don't you think bruce so but it's a [13:36] campaign that i promised that i would cut taxes i had a big beautiful campaign we won in a landslide [13:43] we won every swing state we won by millions of votes we won the electoral college in our fortune but [13:49] we had another thing that we won 86 of the counties in america think of it that's why the map is all red [13:57] except for two blue stripes and those were rigged by the way they were rigged on the they were rigged [14:03] we had rigged elections but i cut your taxes and cut the taxes on workers families small business who [14:10] are the soul of this state and i made special promises that i would save your thousands of [14:16] dollars a year by restoring and we did that your state and local tax deductions and what did we save [14:24] your salt deduction we brought it back mr salt mr salt where's your hat mike he's got a hat calling [14:35] himself mr salt there it is beautiful i bet i think i'll take one of them but he did he didn't stop [14:42] this guy was a pain in the ass it was terrible he didn't stop but he did you're lucky to have him in [14:49] this community that i can tell you and and you had some good help from republicans right good help from [14:56] republicans but with the help of your great congressman it's what happened we got your taxes [15:03] cut not only from the standpoint of salt but your taxes were cut your take-home pay is sort and uh [15:09] all of the other things that we did when you look at what we've done and my motto was promises made [15:16] promises kept and here in rockland county the typical owner you know your typical homeowner loses over [15:23] fifteen thousand dollars each year alone because of your state taxes they're going to cut your state [15:29] taxes in half and more than half they're gonna they will do things that you won't believe and you know [15:36] the bottom line is the state itself will make more money than it made before i did it i cut tremendous [15:44] amounts of taxes in my first term we had the greatest most successful economy in history and by the way we're [15:50] blowing it away in this term so today today today we just an amazing thing happened they said it [16:00] couldn't happen for four years an amazing thing the dow jones hit 50 702 and the s p is way over 7 000. [16:16] so these were two things that said they said he won't be able to do when i first got elected [16:21] they said he won't be able to do that there's no way he's going to be able to do that in his first [16:27] term which is my first term of numerous terms by the way you know we're a three-term president we [16:34] just don't want the results we don't want we won three times but we only want the results of the first [16:42] and the third we have a hat the hat says four more years it drives the radical left lunatics crazy [17:02] but we did all of the different things and we've saved you from 10 to 40 000 a year the people in [17:07] rockland on average over 1 million new yorkers claimed the deduction this year you're able to [17:14] write off nearly 22 000 on average putting thousands of dollars back in your pockets and these are all [17:21] republican tax cuts the democrats voted against every one of these tax cuts everyone they voted as an [17:29] example in favor of open borders they voted against the border they voted against the wall they voted [17:36] against they voted against the sanity of when we talk about men playing in women's words i tell you how [17:42] ridiculous it is that's why i love having jackson because it's so easy i just say how would you like [17:47] to play against him but we have even better jackson we have a weightlifter he was a failed male [17:54] weightlifter and then he decided to he decided to transition to the other side and they had a major [18:03] major contest an olympic tryout and they had a young woman who was really good she was one of the [18:09] greatest ever and she could lift 204 pounds over her head and the record stood for 17 years jackson 17 [18:17] years and she was going to break the record it was a big record but she was going to break it and they took [18:23] an eighth of an ounce and they put it on one side and they took an eighth of an ounce and they put it [18:29] in the other side and her parents were right where you are you beautiful parents right are you parents [18:33] yes even if you weren't i'll say you are not her good job you did good job mom and they had this [18:41] beautiful young weightlifter female real female well this was a real female so she had an eighth of an [18:50] ounce an eighth of an ounce she had like 208 pounds and she was going to do it and her parents were so [18:56] proud her father knew she couldn't do it but the mother thought she would that's a typical mother [19:01] the father was sort of not so sure he loved his daughter but he wasn't sure and she bent over and [19:07] she lifted that sucker and she pulled it up and she was getting close and she could barely and the [19:12] mother was come on darling you can do it 17 years it stood come on darling you could and she got that [19:20] and she got it up to here jackson she said she was almost come on darling the mother and the father was [19:28] almost bored because he knows she's not going to do it and the mother's screaming come on darling i [19:34] love you so much mom i love you i love you and she she couldn't stop boom it dropped and then in sepsis [19:45] young transitioned person you know i've gotten very good with the words it took me a long time i used to [19:50] get criticized he was a transitioned person and he stepped up now he was a failed lowest of the low for [19:59] the male weightlifters and he stood over that weight he looked at it he could have done it four or five [20:07] times he broke the record by over 100 pounds isn't this ridiculous is this do you want to hear the [20:19] swimming story or not you know my wife the great first lady number one number one movie you believe [20:32] it i don't like that i don't like success for people in the family no you can only have remember [20:40] there's one star in a family it doesn't work with her no she did a movie number one movie you saw that [20:45] then it went streaming the new thing streaming with number one streaming but she says darling please [20:51] you speak so beautifully would you do me a favor don't do the swimming story don't do the weightlifting [20:57] sir it's so damn unpresidential and also darling when you're leaving and they have that song [21:06] the gay national anthem if you remember that's why i did so well with the gay vote i think because of [21:12] that song i did great with the gay vote better than any republicans ever done by far but my wife the [21:19] first lady very elegant woman that's why people love the women went to see that movie 15 times [21:24] okay ready she said darling don't dance okay it's not presidential don't do the weightlifting thing it [21:31] doesn't look good don't do the swimming thing so i'll do the swimming thing all right i'll do this [21:40] now a young olympian very beautiful olympian swimmer and you know it's sort of like the pyramid all the [21:47] great people they swim against each other from the time they're five years old you know just works that [21:52] way they're better whether it's golfers or players baseball football football players you were great when [21:58] you were four years old you could throw a ball better than anybody else but the truth is it always works [22:03] that way and this young woman looking for the olympics and she knows all the girls on the right [22:09] and all the girls on the left and she stands and she's so proud she wants to qualify and she's really [22:14] a champion swimmer and she looks to the left you've heard this story and she sees six girls and she knows [22:21] every one of them she looks over there yeah great that's good hi hi how you doing she hates them because [22:26] you know they're competitors but she says hi then she looks to the right she sees six people and she knows [22:31] five of them but there's a person just on her right who's gigantic it's a gigantic person and she's [22:40] looking up at him at her excuse me that could be the end of my political career that could be you [22:50] cannot do that you cannot you cannot say looking up at him because so she's looking up at her oh my [22:59] he's so she's so big i've never seen anybody and he has a wingspan sort of the size of shaquille o'neal [23:10] ah go go home to mom go home to mom go home to mom take him home to mommy he's going to be in trouble [23:40] you know what he doesn't say is his mom's watching on television right now and she's loving it [23:46] anyway so you have this person and you know what happened the story is very very famous actually [23:52] that she was very severely injured you know what injured her windburn because he went by her so fast [23:59] that she got tremendous windburn in the pool and then he finished up the race and he rested while the [24:06] other girls came in and it was a very sad event a very sad occasion but to think that we actually 15 [24:14] years ago 20 years ago could you imagine saying we will not allow men to play in women's sports could [24:22] you imagine saying get transition can you imagine saying we will not allow the mutualization of your [24:30] children if you said that they'd say what's wrong with that person why they're talking that way today [24:34] you have to say it because they do allow in certain places still we've cut a lot of it out most of it [24:41] they allow the mutualization of your children and we don't allow that stuff and we're going to get [24:46] it the hell out of here happened to that guy it's so quick i tell people please don't do it it's dangerous [25:02] to do it to do it in this crowd is not a good thing you don't want to do it in trump grads i had very [25:07] little do you remember originally i used to have a lot of that you know the first couple of months i'd [25:13] have people screaming and they learned it's just not a good thing to do it's not good it's sort of [25:19] dangerous and of course i like things that aren't dangerous i don't like to see people get whacked [25:26] i don't like it so don't do it but we used to have it all the time my first month or two oh boy [25:31] guys would start screaming we hate you and then all of a sudden it got less and now it never happens [25:37] that's the first time it's happened in a long time that's the first time it's happened in a long [25:44] time if the democrats gain power they'll take these deductions and tax cuts away they'll raise [25:51] your taxes and they'll i'll tell you what we want to all my life i went through life watching politics [25:58] i love politics always watch i never thought i'd be a politician could you believe i'm a politician [26:03] i hate i hate the sound of it but but remember that although i had a good night the other night right [26:09] we knocked out a bad senator from louisiana we knocked out massey a horrible one of the worst [26:18] republican congressmen ever we knocked out somebody in georgia rathensberger we knocked him out we [26:26] knocked out everybody we were 38 and 0 30 think of that 38 and oh who's 38 and i haven't we haven't lost [26:34] one in years you want to know the truth we have let me tell you we have make america greater maga we have [26:41] a movement the likes of which this country has never seen and you know it's a movement based on [26:48] common sense it's not that it's conservative it's conservative maybe but it's a movement based on [26:54] common sense we want strong borders we want good education we want low taxes we're also we want a [27:00] strong military how good is our military right now we're doing very well by the way well first of all [27:12] venezuela was unbelievable right now iran their navy's gone their air force is gone everything's [27:22] gone their leaders are gone and if you read the fake news you think they're doing just fine they're not [27:31] doing just fine they want to settle so badly we have the greatest military i just got back from china [27:37] president xi good man good man and i'll get killed for saying that they'll say oh he called president [27:43] xi a good man well we had an amazing time but even he had to say your military is unbelievable this is [27:50] the head of china we have built i built the greatest military my first four years and i didn't know i was [27:55] going to be using it this much but we're using it and there's nobody like our equipment there's nobody like [28:03] the stuff we produce but most importantly there's nobody like our military men and women there's nobody [28:14] but all my life i've watched all my life i've watched politicians and until this last eight or [28:21] nine years they have trump derangement syndrome they're all screwed up their wires are all mixed up [28:26] the democrats and uh they always used to say that we will lower your to everybody republican democrat [28:33] every we will lower your taxes we're going to lower lower lower your taxes now they don't do that [28:39] they say we will raise your taxes the democrats they want to raise your taxes never forget not a [28:46] single democrat in congress voted to raise the salt deduction mike lawler and all of his friends [28:55] sitting up here fought them and they voted against him and by voting against the great big beautiful bill [29:06] one of the greatest pieces of legislation probably the biggest ever passed because we put everything in [29:12] four years that was my idea i said let's add everything because these people are crazy we [29:17] might not get another chance at it we added everything into that that's four years worth of legislation [29:22] that's why we call it the great big beautiful bill no tax on tips no tax on overtime no tax on social [29:30] security for the seniors the democrats voted for open borders they voted for open borders and if they get in [29:39] you're gonna have open borders again you're gonna have millions of people coming in they voted for [29:48] men in women's sports they voted against the largest ever investment in school choice everybody wants [29:56] school choice and they voted against making interest payments on your auto loans tax deductible that's [30:02] what you have if it's made in america so we have another little disturbance back there hello hello everybody [30:13] that's okay it's it's already cleared up what are you doing back there to these people boy does that [30:20] get cleared up fast the guy raises his hand starts screaming something and within about two seconds it's [30:26] over what happened to him don't hurt him don't hurt him don't hurt him i do that for legal reasons this [30:38] way i can say that's a great thing to say do not hurt him under any circumstances and now i can say i'm [30:45] innocent they voted against the trump accounts which provide automatic contributions of a thousand [30:53] dollars for every newborn child so they end up being quite wealthy and our record tax cuts are [31:01] projected to raise incomes for new yorkers by over eight thousand dollars mike on average we're going to [31:07] boost household take-home pay for you the people in the room over twelve thousand dollars and protect more [31:13] than four hundred and five thousand new york jobs and we got to protect the jobs we can't let that happen [31:20] i just say it again and again and again you can't let these companies go it's easy to say oh we don't [31:25] like the companies they're the ones that supply you with the money and the jobs and everything else you [31:30] got to cherish those companies whether you like them or not you got to last month the irs issued the [31:35] largest average tax refunds to new yorkers in new york history think of it you got back the biggest [31:42] you got back the biggest refund that you've ever had and that's all over the country by the way [31:47] but i was with the king of saudi arabia two years ago and he's investing over two trillion dollars here [31:55] we have 18 trillion dollars coming in but he said he said and you might have heard it just a short time [32:03] ago he said mr president it's amazing two years ago you were a dead country dead we never thought anything [32:15] was going to happen that could be good for your country you were a dead country with a leader that [32:20] was a not smart person i'm going to say you were a dead country and today you're the hottest country [32:28] anywhere in the world it's true we're the hottest country respected by everybody we're respected by [32:34] everybody the stock market has just said 68 times during my short a little bit more than a year [32:43] 68 days we hit all-time record highs and since the election adding nine trillion dollars in value to [32:51] your savings and retirement accounts 401ks your 401ks does anybody have a 401k well your people are going [33:01] to vote for me then there's no way will anybody with a 401k vote against trump thank you it's always [33:10] risky to ask that question sometimes yes it could be a very dangerous way but since i took office the [33:17] typical 401k is up more than thirty thousand dollars and i've created three hundred thousand jobs in the [33:28] last two months bashing all expectations remember this right now more people are working in the united [33:35] states than at any time ever before by far by a big number and in 16 months we've lifted nearly 5 [33:46] million americans off of food stamps five million and thanks to my strong tariff policies now i get [33:55] into a lot of trouble with tariffs because you remember when i first came out i love tariffs and i [34:01] said i love tariffs my favorite word in the whole dictionary i love the word tariff and the fake news [34:07] look at all of them back there that's a lot of fake news that's a lot of fake news they're all over the [34:13] place they're all over i got more fake news you know they hate me but what do they cover me but i said [34:23] my favorite word in the dictionary is tariff and they got after me they said he's a horrible human [34:30] being what about family what about god what about religion what about love so now i say it's my fifth [34:37] favorite word and i get away and i'm okay but because of tariffs we've brought numbers into this country [34:43] that no in other words if you make your product outside of the united states to get it in here you [34:48] have to pay a big tariff so what do they do they build their factory in the united states and that's [34:55] what they're doing that's what they're doing and even new york with your bad policies we have people [35:00] coming here i'm trying to get them to come to new york we've also cut our gaping trade deficit by okay [35:07] if you cut a trade deficit by one percent a half of a percent you're a genius i've cut it by 59 [35:17] percent one year it's because the tariffs because the money we're being made is that right mr lutnik [35:25] secretary of commerce is here looks good looks handsome reasonably he doesn't look like jackson [35:30] i'd rather look like jackson i'll take jackson any day under our leadership factory construction is up [35:38] new residential construction is way up and consumer spending is way up american companies [35:45] are ordering core capital goods to expand their operations at the highest rate in the history of [35:52] our country and last year general motors announced a new manufacturing investment of a billion dollars [35:58] in upstate new york to produce v8 engines which they never would have done here they were all made in [36:04] germany and other countries now they're making them here because if they don't they have to pay a big [36:09] penalty and they're stamping them at my instruction made in the usa made in the usa we're bringing it back [36:20] joe bonnie is building a 1.2 billion dollar dairy plant in rome new york the largest investment in [36:26] the history of the company big company and micron boy micron's great they're investing hundreds of [36:32] millions in fact it'll be probably could be very close by the time they finish out over 100 billion [36:39] dollars in clay new york anybody come from clay you will be there when you go up and look for a job [36:48] my administration and our allies in congress are also fighting every single day to lower the cost of [36:54] living so i got into office i won the election in a landslide and i go i have a news conference thank [37:03] god i mean not to brag but if i didn't win the election we were dead the welfare was tripling and [37:14] the business was leaving and the 18 trillion dollars would have been uh 18 trillion to the [37:20] negative instead of the positive this we would have been a dead country we would have been finished [37:25] it's true we ended joe biden's insane electric vehicle mandate that's where they wanted everybody [37:31] to buy an electric car and as i told elan i love electric cars but elan is not for everybody you know if we [37:40] would build the charging booths right it would cost the country four trillion dollars no country could [37:47] afford that four trillion you ever get an electric car and you certainly get nervous because you know [37:52] your thing is down a little bit friends of mine tell me the story's down a little bit getting close [37:57] and you're looking what about a charging station you know this is an hour before it runs out where's [38:01] the charger and then you see it it's a sign and it says charging station an arrow pointing to the right [38:08] 92 miles and you limp in uh if you make it at all no we love electric cars i have to say that because [38:16] of elan but i love electric cars they're lovely lovely vehicles but i said i don't want not everybody [38:23] wants to have an electric car and i ended that whole nonsense by 2030 you're going to all have electric [38:29] cars i don't think so how about california they have electric cars they can't they don't have enough [38:34] electricity to turn on your air conditioners they have they have brownouts and now everybody's going [38:38] to have an electric car that's one of the worst governors in the country by the way that guy [38:44] but he took himself did you hear he announced he's taken himself out of the race he called himself a [38:52] dumb person he got very low board scores everything he's done is tough and he can't read a speech he [38:59] can't read a speech so i don't read too many speeches either i'd be better off if i did but he can't read a [39:06] speech but he called himself a dumb person and when you do that i say it ends but a friend of mine [39:13] very good at politics say don't worry people forget about it i don't know i don't think you confess i [39:18] thought it was the worst he did this during an interview i thought it was the worst interview by [39:22] a professional politician in the history of our country because gavin i think is is when he says he's [39:29] stupid he said he's stupid but remember but he said he's smarter than the people in the room and then [39:35] he got sued for being a racist okay and i guess he probably is a racist but he said he was a stupid [39:42] person you'll never hear me call myself i'm the smartest guy you're ever going to meet and don't [39:52] you want to have a smart person as president you want to have a smart person in fact i took the [39:59] cognitive test i'm the only one you know they call me originally they said he's brilliant he wants to [40:07] take over the entire country then they said no no he wants the world he doesn't want the country [40:14] that's why he's in iran that's why he's in hey by the way how did we do in venezuela not bad that's why [40:19] he said you know we've taken out so much oil in venezuela we paid for the cost of the war about 25 times [40:27] over when did you hear that last you know it's a one-way street but no no the doctor i said uh doctor [40:34] let me ask you a question they called me genius and that didn't work then they said he's totally [40:39] brilliant he's a vicious dictator who wants to take over that didn't work and then they called me this [40:44] and then they said they hit me with a bad one he's a dumb person d-u-m not the b he's a dumb person [40:53] it's enough most people don't know it has a b he's a dumb person i said doctor i don't mind being called a [41:00] brilliant total tyrant dictator but i don't want to be called dumb what do i do doctor is there some [41:08] kind of a test i can take he said actually sir there is it's a cognitive test i said how many [41:14] presidents have taken it none you know this story no people have taken it i said well is it good or [41:21] bad is it tough it's a tough test it starts off easy it gets very very tough i said well you know what [41:27] i'm going to do i'm going to take that test i think doctor because i do good on tests i'm going [41:32] to take that test and let's see how we do he said here's the problem sir if you do badly on the test [41:37] it's going to be reported because it's walter reed medical hospital it's a military hospital it's sort [41:42] of public so you have five doctors sitting there and they're all if you do badly on it sir and you [41:48] could do badly because you know the questions are very easy at the beginning then pretty easy then [41:54] pretty hard by the time you get to the end there are not a lot of people in the room can get [41:57] them believe me i said well it will be public won't it it'll be embarrassment but let's do it [42:04] this was in my first term i took it and i aced it and they had very they had tough questions so the [42:14] first question was you have a bear a snake an elephant and a horse name the horse that's the horse [42:25] the second question is a little bit tough and then he goes so the new york times there's a story [42:30] to show the test that i just aced and they only used the first question they didn't go into the [42:35] other questions they didn't go in but toward the end like they had a question like pick a number sir [42:42] any number okay 203 multiply times nine divide by two add on 1324 subtract 1292 sir multiply it out one [43:00] more time by 19 what is the answer sir and i got it right you know and the one doctor said i've been [43:14] doing this test for 20 years i've never seen anybody ace it so then what happened that was in [43:19] my first term and that quieted people down i was good and then what happened i did it twice in my [43:25] second tip so i've taken it and i've aced it all three times i'll tell you because it is a positive [43:29] thing you know positive nice to be smart but but remember i said and i made the statement all [43:37] presidents and vice presidential candidates should be forced to take a cognitive test and [43:42] test and intelligence and i said it loud obama couldn't do well on it biden wouldn't even get [43:48] the first question i don't think he'd get there which is the bear which is the horse no what he [43:58] get you know i have a friend he he's very good politically but he has a test he owns like stores [44:04] little stores he's not super rich in fact he's not even rich but he's got he makes a living as the [44:11] expression he goes but i knew him a long time i like to keep my old friends i like to do really much [44:16] better than them i don't like friends that become very successful i like people that are just okay [44:23] even if they're terrible i like that too i hate like when i have lunch with somebody that's really [44:30] really successful i hate it because he or she is bragging about how great they are and i hate that when [44:37] they do that because they stop me from talking about the fact that i became president but i have a [44:48] friend and he said you know i have a simple test for a politician i own stores i'm really good at it [44:55] it's not a complex business and i say how would a president do running my store while i'm away on [45:02] vacation he said i take one store not three or four and i say my busiest one one queen's boulevard [45:09] queens he said i take a store and i say how would he be and i said so what's the answer he said you [45:17] would drive it into one of the largest retail empires in the world biden wouldn't be able to run the [45:24] store for one evening one evening it would be a dessert he said i give people tests i put people [45:30] in my store i say how do you think they do and i said he said biden wouldn't be able to run a store [45:37] we can never let that happen again to our country we can never let it happen again what he's done [45:43] what he's done to our country is unacceptable and a lot of bad things we had inflation but we've got that [45:49] down by the way the oil prices are going to tumble as soon as i finish up with iran tumble i was in [45:58] iowa i was in iowa we had it down to a dollar and 85 cents a gallon in iowa but we had it down around [46:05] the two dollar point and then i said well lutnik we're going to have to take a trip to we got scott [46:10] besant we got all of them i said we just hit 50 000 on the dow and i said that's a record highest ever [46:17] i said sorry to do this to you but we're going to have to journey down to the middle east they said [46:23] why i said because iran is going to have a nuclear weapon if we don't stop them and i said we're going [46:28] to have to do it and we have stopped them they're not going to ever have a nuclear weapon they're [46:35] never going to have a nuclear weapon and we'll have that over with soon it'll be over with soon and [46:41] you're going to see numbers like you've never seen both on the upside and also in terms of course [46:46] you're going to see costs go down but you know the democrats are the ones that caused all the costs [46:52] be sure to like and subscribe for all the fox news latest on youtube and catch full shows streaming [46:57]
