Eric Trump Opens Up About Charlie Kirk's Death and Family Under Siege

[00:08] Welcome to another special episode of

[00:11] the Eron Molen Show. I have an

[00:15] incredible guest that I needed to bring

[00:17] to you straight away given what's

[00:19] happened in the world. His name is Eric

[00:22] Trump, son of US President Donald Trump.

[00:26] And in my eyes, I think the more

[00:28] impressive title is husband of superstar

[00:32] Lara Trump. Now, this has been a really

[00:34] difficult time for their family with the

[00:37] loss of Charlie Kirk, someone who was

[00:39] incredibly close to them from a friend

[00:42] perspective, but also someone who was a

[00:45] huge part of Donald Trump's election

[00:48] win, particularly when it came to the

[00:50] youth in America. Now, Eric Trump has

[00:52] just released a new book. It's called

[00:54] Under Siege, and he is raw in it. Goes

[00:59] into incredible detail. He says things

[01:01] that he's never spoken about before. Uh

[01:04] he says the media will try and and quash

[01:07] the book. We know what they're like over

[01:08] in America, but that won't matter

[01:11] because this will be bigger than

[01:12] anything they can do. I caught up with

[01:15] him literally moments ago. So, I want to

[01:17] bring that to you now. My sitdown with

[01:20] Eric Trump. Um, Eric, thank you so much

[01:24] again for your time, particularly given

[01:25] the past week that you've had and and

[01:27] that America has had.

[01:29] >> It's great to be on.

[01:31] >> Charlie Kirk, tell me how how you feel,

[01:35] what he meant to you and your family and

[01:37] what he meant to America.

[01:38] >> Yeah, he's unbelievable friend. I met

[01:40] him when he was probably 21 22 years

[01:42] old. He came into my office and I'll

[01:44] never forget he just started a couple of

[01:45] the Turning Point chapters uh at a few

[01:48] universities and he kind of laid out

[01:49] this this big bold vision of what he

[01:51] wanted Turning Point to be. Now that

[01:53] vision that he laid out is exactly what

[01:55] Turning Point is today. I mean he he

[01:57] knew it. He knew how to get there. He

[01:58] knew what he wanted to do. And I

[02:00] remember at the time saying, "Crap,

[02:02] that's a big ambitious, bold vision for

[02:05] a young kid to change the hearts and

[02:07] minds of effectively youth in America on

[02:10] collegiate campuses where everybody's

[02:12] getting brainwashed. It's no different

[02:13] than Australia. It's no different than

[02:14] anywhere else. They're getting

[02:15] brainwashed. You're getting

[02:16] indoctrinated. You have a bunch of

[02:17] teachers who are, you know, kind of

[02:20] preaching nonsense, uh, revisionist

[02:22] history. And, you know, you're going to

[02:24] change that all. One kid's going to go

[02:25] in there and set up some chapters and

[02:27] change it all." And he did. He changed

[02:29] it all. I mean, he won the youth vote in

[02:31] this country. He changed the way they

[02:33] think. He made so many people in this

[02:35] country realize how they were being

[02:36] indoctrinated, how be they were being

[02:38] lied to. Um, and how you could have a

[02:40] voice on these uber liberal campuses all

[02:43] across the country. And, um, to see a

[02:45] good friend lose his life yesterday, to

[02:47] see it on TV, it was obviously deja vu

[02:50] to what we experienced 14 months ago,

[02:51] you know, when my father almost lost his

[02:53] life in a very similar context to to how

[02:56] Charlie lost his life yesterday. And

[02:58] it's it's truly unthinkable.

[03:01] >> It's so hard to watch just as a human

[03:04] being who didn't know Charlie. How did

[03:06] it feel to watch as someone who almost

[03:09] lost their dad in the exact same way you

[03:12] just mentioned last year?

[03:14] >> You know, it's what they do. It's it's

[03:16] what this side does. You know, I came

[03:18] out with a book two days ago not not

[03:20] understanding kind of not obviously is

[03:21] before what happened with Charlie and

[03:23] it's called under siege and it's how the

[03:25] left put our family under siege right

[03:28] they started by trying to impeach him

[03:30] then they did the Russia hoax then they

[03:32] went after the Supreme Court justices

[03:34] then they started taking my father off

[03:35] of ballots all across you know states

[03:38] all across the country radical judges

[03:40] then they went after him using district

[03:42] attorneys and attorney generals right

[03:44] then it was a legal law fair it was 112

[03:47] subpoena as that I received. It was the

[03:50] gag orders, the the the weaponization,

[03:52] the indictments of my father. It was the

[03:55] mug shot. It was the raiding of his of

[03:57] his homes. I could go on and on. Then

[03:59] they threw him off of Twitter and they

[04:01] threw him off of Facebook and they threw

[04:02] him off of Instagram while the Ayatollah

[04:05] and Boka Haram and and you know Al-Qaeda

[04:09] and everybody else remained on Twitter.

[04:11] They threw him off and Facebook threw

[04:13] him off and Instagram threw him off.

[04:15] They tried to take his voice. And then

[04:17] when none of that worked, they tried to

[04:19] kill him in Butler, Pennsylvania. And

[04:20] thank God, you know, by the grace of

[04:23] God, they missed. And then they tried to

[04:24] kill him two months later at a golf

[04:26] course that we have in, you know, West

[04:29] Palm Beach, Florida, you know, and then

[04:31] they tried to kill Kavanaaugh. And then

[04:33] you saw what they did with, you know,

[04:35] Steve Scalis in this country. And then

[04:37] we're all watching our friends speak at

[04:39] a beautiful college campus. And you have

[04:41] so much love. And then they take his

[04:43] life. And you know, under siege is the

[04:46] perfect title. The the book I came out

[04:48] with, under siege, it's the perfect

[04:49] title because they've tried to lay siege

[04:51] to our family. They've tried to lay

[04:53] siege to my father. They've tried to lay

[04:55] siege to my company. And they've tried

[04:59] to lay siege to the entire MAGA movement

[05:01] in this country. Make America great

[05:03] again, which is a movement of love. It's

[05:06] a movement of love of country, right?

[05:09] Love of God, love of constitution. the

[05:12] fact that we live in the greatest

[05:13] economy in the world by far. That the

[05:15] fact that we were the country that put

[05:17] an astronaut on the moon. The fact that

[05:19] we've led in pretty much every

[05:21] technological innovation. It's about

[05:24] working hard. It's about loving of kids

[05:26] and and and and the the family unit. And

[05:28] they've tried everything that they could

[05:30] to stop that, to break it apart, to kill

[05:33] that movement. They put that movement

[05:35] under siege. And you know, it's a shame

[05:37] it came out two days ago because this

[05:39] would have just been another chapter in

[05:41] that saga. What they did to a beautiful

[05:44] young kid who was so respected, who had

[05:46] such a powerful voice, who who was such

[05:49] an influential part of of American

[05:51] politics. You know, this is the siege.

[05:54] Surround, try and destroy, try and kill

[05:58] by any means possible. And that's what

[06:00] the radical left in this country does.

[06:04] Your wife was with him at a university

[06:06] event, Lara. Recently, you've been on

[06:08] stage with him. Does it get to the stage

[06:10] where you have to say as a family, it's

[06:13] not worth the risk?

[06:15] >> No, because that's exactly what they

[06:16] want. That's ex, you know, Erin, we were

[06:19] a bunch of people. I didn't know damn

[06:21] thing about politics, right? I mean, I'm

[06:22] not a politician. I built hotels and

[06:25] golf courses and the best commercial

[06:26] buildings in in the world. By the way,

[06:28] soon I'm going to come to Australia. I

[06:30] promise you that. And we're going to

[06:30] have an unbelievable drop property

[06:32] there. So maybe I'm breaking I'm

[06:34] breaking maybe I'm breaking news there.

[06:36] But

[06:36] >> you know we didn't know anything about

[06:38] this and we had to run against what

[06:39] Hillary Clinton the greatest political

[06:41] dynasty in American

[06:42] >> history between her and Bill. And you

[06:45] know she had five times the amount of

[06:46] money that we had. We were we were

[06:48] funding it out of our own back pockets

[06:50] as as a family, right? We didn't know

[06:52] what a delegate was. We didn't know what

[06:54] a swing state was. We didn't know what a

[06:55] caucus was.

[06:57] And we knocked her off of her her high

[06:59] preach when she had big pharma money and

[07:02] she had the the the the pension funds

[07:04] and she had everything. I mean she

[07:06] literally five to one she raised a

[07:08] billion and a half dollars. You know we

[07:10] funded most of our own campaign and

[07:12] somehow speaking from the heart as a

[07:15] family with a powerful message. No BS,

[07:17] no nonsense, maybe a little bit

[07:19] politically incorrect. We stood on every

[07:22] stage in the country. I stood on the

[07:24] stage that looked just like the one that

[07:26] Charlie was on yesterday 1,000 times.

[07:30] And this what they realize. They realize

[07:32] that, you know, they take a shot at my

[07:33] father and they trying to shoot him

[07:35] again. And they think that they can, you

[07:37] know, erase the the the the meaningful

[07:40] voices in our movement. This is what

[07:42] they want. They want us to do what Joe

[07:44] Biden did, which is hide in a basement.

[07:46] They don't want us to be on that stage.

[07:48] They don't want us to be in those

[07:49] crowds. They don't want us to be using

[07:50] the voice that I'm using right now,

[07:53] right? This is how they silence us. This

[07:55] is this is the siege that they're laying

[07:58] back to that that term that fits so

[08:00] perfectly today. And the problem is,

[08:02] hey, maybe is it is it safer to cower?

[08:04] Sure, we could all go hide in our

[08:06] basement. We could all disappear. We'd

[08:09] actually probably live much more

[08:10] enjoyable lives. Believe me, my father,

[08:12] if he just camped out of Mara Lago and

[08:14] lived a beautiful life, he would have

[08:15] been put through 1/ 1,000th of the hell

[08:17] that he's been put through. Guess what?

[08:19] our bank accounts would have probably

[08:20] been larger. We would have had more

[08:21] properties around the world, you know, I

[08:23] probably would have had a lot less gray

[08:25] in my beard for being a 41-year-old man,

[08:28] right? But but instead, we go out there

[08:30] and we fight like hell and that's what

[08:32] got us to victory. And frankly, that's

[08:34] what's saving the United States of

[08:35] America and the world. You you watch the

[08:38] indoctrination everywhere. Look what's

[08:39] happening to Europe. Look what's

[08:41] happened to so much of of Australia in

[08:44] terms of how it's attacked the the left.

[08:46] And now you have countries all over the

[08:48] world who are looking at the United

[08:49] States of America saying they're back.

[08:51] They're back. And by the way, that

[08:52] strength is good for the entire world.

[08:54] That strength is good for peace. It's

[08:57] good for prosperity. You know, it's good

[08:59] for the entire world because when when

[09:01] America gets sick, the entire world gets

[09:04] the flu. And everybody knows that and

[09:06] everybody realizes it. And American

[09:08] leadership for the last, you know,

[09:10] century is the only thing that's

[09:11] actually held so much of this planet

[09:14] together. and they're seeing America and

[09:16] they're seeing seeing us thrive. They're

[09:18] seeing the amount of money that we're

[09:19] bringing in. They're seeing our capital

[09:21] markets. They're seeing taxation.

[09:23] They're seeing, you know, inflation

[09:25] which is out of control go down. They're

[09:26] seeing our energy prices drop faster

[09:28] than ever before. And people are

[09:30] envious. And honestly, it's changing the

[09:32] whole pendulum of the entire world. And

[09:34] that's a beautiful thing. And so, you

[09:36] know, I I hope us leading by example

[09:39] with strong voices really helps lead the

[09:41] rest of the globe in a in a positive way

[09:43] for for not only many countries, but but

[09:46] but so much of humanity. And I I think

[09:48] that's happening. But that will not

[09:49] happen if we step off that stage and

[09:51] cower to these these radical left

[09:53] lunatics. And we won't allow it to

[09:54] happen.

[09:55] >> I said that yesterday. This is not a

[09:57] moment to cower. This is a moment to get

[10:00] louder. But that is harder for people

[10:01] like you who are actually in the firing

[10:03] line. I want to ask you one final

[10:05] question about Charlie. When you

[10:06] mentioned him coming into your office as

[10:08] a young man, a kid basically telling you

[10:10] what he wanted to do, he then did almost

[10:13] exactly that. It reminds me of someone,

[10:15] your dad, and people would have thought

[10:16] he was crazy when he said he wanted to

[10:19] be president. People would have thought

[10:20] he was crazy when he said, "When I win

[10:22] this for the second time or the third

[10:23] time, however you look at it, I'm going

[10:25] to do this, this, and this." He's done

[10:27] it all. Could Charlie Kirk have been

[10:29] president one day? Did he have those

[10:31] ambitions? Does he remind you of your

[10:33] dad?

[10:34] >> Absolutely. He could have been

[10:35] president. I mean, the guy had an

[10:35] amazing voice. You know, this is a guy,

[10:37] right? Somebody asked me a question, you

[10:39] know, who could take over Turning Point.

[10:42] And I kind of shook my head. You know,

[10:43] there's a lot of people who are, you

[10:44] know, who who who articulate, who are

[10:46] smart, um, who know the issues, who have

[10:48] good voices. Okay, that's that's one

[10:50] part of it. This is a guy who built an

[10:52] organization. This is a guy who built a

[10:54] movement. He built a grassroots

[10:55] movement. He connected so deeply with so

[10:57] many people, hence the outcry all over

[10:59] the country, you know, and the level of

[11:01] support that you have for him. But this

[11:03] is a guy who worked, you know, seven

[11:05] days a week, 24/7, right? I mean, you

[11:08] don't just hop up on those stages and

[11:10] and start, right? You need to fundraise

[11:12] and you need to have an apparatus and

[11:14] you need to be able to communicate and

[11:15] you need to organize, right? I mean,

[11:16] Turning Point became a massive massive

[11:20] apparatus. And you know, no matter where

[11:22] I went, Eron, I'd be building a hotel

[11:23] somewhere. I'd be checking in on one of

[11:25] our golf properties. I'd be at one of

[11:26] our commercial buildings. I'd be in

[11:27] Texas, you know, doing something at a

[11:30] buddy's ranch. Everywhere I went, and

[11:33] it's not just because Charlie and I were

[11:34] friends, but everywhere I went, I saw

[11:36] Charlie Kirk. He wore through shoes.

[11:39] That's how that's how amazing his

[11:41] enthusiasm was. This wasn't a

[11:43] nineto-five job for him. I mean, this

[11:45] was his job. It was his career. It was

[11:47] his calling. It was his hobby. It was

[11:50] his love. It's what he did. is what he

[11:53] thought about when he went to bed at

[11:54] night and what he thought about when he

[11:55] woke up in the morning. And that's

[11:57] awfully hard to clone. I mean, it's one

[12:00] thing to clone a personality, and that's

[12:02] very impossible to do as well. You

[12:03] probably see that from my father. But

[12:05] it's really impossible to clone a

[12:07] grassroots movement. And when I'm

[12:10] telling you, he changed the direction of

[12:14] of of of academia and and youth politics

[12:18] in the United States of America in a

[12:21] major way.

[12:22] You go back eight years, you had you had

[12:25] kids who were petrified. Kids who were

[12:28] petrified to say that they were a

[12:30] Republican, that they were conservative,

[12:31] that they believed in God,

[12:34] >> you know, that they loved the country.

[12:35] In fact, so many of them did, but they

[12:37] would lie about it because it was so

[12:39] socially unpopular. and he actually

[12:41] flipped the whole narrative to it's cool

[12:43] and I'm going to buck the system and I'm

[12:45] going to buck this university and I'm

[12:47] going to stand up and I'm going to be

[12:48] loud and I'm going to wear that red hat

[12:50] that everybody loves so much and uh and

[12:53] we're going to make a difference and

[12:54] that's ingrained in their hearts now and

[12:56] there's no bullets that can take that

[12:58] away. Killing Charlie Kirk does not take

[13:01] away the movement that he helped create.

[13:03] killing my father when they try to

[13:05] savagely attack him does not change what

[13:07] the Make America Great Again movement

[13:09] is. In fact, as I keep saying, it only

[13:12] cements it. It only further solidifies

[13:14] that very movement. And I think the

[13:16] movement as as tragic as it as it is is

[13:20] stronger today because everybody

[13:22] realizes that the radical left is

[13:25] dangerous. They're intolerant and

[13:27] frankly they'll stop at nothing.

[13:31] They say in some cultures that people

[13:33] die twice. Once when they take their

[13:35] final breath and the second time when

[13:36] you stop saying their name. I'd like to

[13:39] ask you about your mom if that's okay

[13:40] because you talk so much about your dad

[13:42] for obvious reason. This is a book not

[13:45] just about your experience but about you

[13:46] as a person.

[13:48] What parts of you are solely because of

[13:51] her and the way she loved you?

[13:54] >> Now I talked a lot about my mom in the

[13:55] book. She was a uh Eric she was a tough

[13:58] cookie. I mean, you know, my wife,

[14:00] you've got to know Laura very well. I

[14:01] mean, Laura's as But you know, take

[14:03] Laura and have her grow up in a

[14:04] communist country, right? With that grit

[14:06] and edge. I mean, she was the best

[14:08] athlete you've ever seen, world class

[14:10] skier, you know, unbelievable model. I

[14:13] mean, on the cover of every Vogue, every

[14:15] esquire hundreds of times. Um, you know,

[14:18] she could smile and and she could woo

[14:20] anybody with glamour. At the same time,

[14:22] she could go tell you to go f yourself,

[14:24] you know, to the to the toughest union

[14:26] boss construction guy in New York and

[14:28] they would cower to her, right? I mean,

[14:30] you know, she was sarcastic, she was

[14:32] funny. Um, she put up with zero BS. I

[14:36] mean, zero zero BS. Like, you know, I

[14:39] it's she believed in old school

[14:41] discipline. If if I got out of line or

[14:43] Don or Ivanka got out of line, she would

[14:44] smack the crap out of us. And and by the

[14:46] way, you know, I know that's that's UNPC

[14:49] today in in in all of our cultures and

[14:51] and you know, those times have have come

[14:53] and gone, but for whatever it's worked,

[14:56] it worked. I mean, we grew up with

[14:57] manners. We grew up with respective

[14:59] adults, no drugs, no drinking, no, you

[15:02] know, I mean, it it it worked for us.

[15:04] And uh, you know, she had some demons.

[15:06] She died of um, you know, far too early

[15:09] of of of some substance abuse. And but

[15:12] she was a uh she was an amazing woman

[15:14] and I go into her a lot in the book and

[15:15] um you know it's pretty powerful stuff.

[15:17] I put my heart and soul into it in a way

[15:19] that I never I never thought I would you

[15:21] know and uh it was a uh it was a special

[15:24] process.

[15:26] >> What was the hardest part to be really

[15:28] honest and vulnerable about when you

[15:30] were when you were writing? What what

[15:31] did you break down doing or were there

[15:33] moments where you just felt sick? Yeah,

[15:37] you know, I went into all the stories

[15:38] behind the scenes of what they did to

[15:40] our family. You know, it's it's for

[15:41] everything that you reported on. For

[15:42] every one story you reported on, there

[15:44] were hundred behind the scenes. And you

[15:46] know, I I can tell you over here in the

[15:48] US, you have something called the New

[15:49] York Times bestseller list. You know,

[15:50] you probably have a version over there.

[15:52] And um you know, they're going to do

[15:54] everything they can to keep this book

[15:55] off of New York Times number one's

[15:56] bestseller because they they do not want

[15:58] to hear, you know, they've done

[16:00] everything they can to silence our So, I

[16:02] was just raw. You know, I was raw in

[16:04] ways that the media probably won't

[16:06] expect me to be. I I think my BS factor

[16:09] in life has has gone to zero. You know,

[16:12] you start seeing what they try to do to

[16:13] destroy you, to imprison you, to kill

[16:16] your father, uh to break up your

[16:18] marriages, to raid your homes. I mean,

[16:20] they raided Mara Lago, which is our our,

[16:22] you know, they went through Melania's

[16:24] closets and Baron's drawers. And, you

[16:26] know, they tried to frame my father more

[16:28] times you can count. I was the guy

[16:30] getting a call saying, "Hey, I hear you

[16:31] have secret servers in the basement of

[16:33] Trump Tower that are connected directly

[16:34] with the Kremlin in Russia." You know,

[16:36] it's like we didn't have servers in our

[16:38] basement. We didn't have, you know, and

[16:41] the FBI knew this and and they let this

[16:43] narrative go on for three years to to

[16:46] hurt my father and and try and destroy

[16:48] his administration, you know, and we

[16:50] beat these guys. We beat them every

[16:52] single time I finished. We beat Leticia

[16:54] James in New York who tried to take away

[16:56] our properties, tried to find us well

[16:59] over a half a billion dollars and take

[17:01] our name off of all our properties and

[17:03] and we beat them. And and honestly, I go

[17:05] through some very raw stories about

[17:08] just, you know, kind of the

[17:10] weaponization of the left. Again, that

[17:12] was their siege. It's do whatever it

[17:13] takes, right? Deprive them of time,

[17:15] deprive them of money, bankrupt them,

[17:17] slander them, break apart their family,

[17:20] imprison their friends, imprison them,

[17:22] kill them. Right. This is the game and

[17:25] honestly the media doesn't want that

[17:27] story to be told because the media

[17:29] frankly was complicit in it of it.

[17:31] >> I mean Aaron half the media in this

[17:32] country was getting Puliter prizes for

[17:35] writing stories about the Russia hoax

[17:38] which never existed which was lies and

[17:40] fabrication. And so you know I think New

[17:43] York Times is going to do everything

[17:44] they can to keep me off that list. At

[17:46] the same time it is flying on on Amazon

[17:49] and on I I mean it's it's it's been a

[17:51] lot of fun to see. It is absolutely

[17:52] soaring and um I'm shaking it up because

[17:56] you know what? I'm beyond the point of

[17:58] of of caring. Like what you're hearing

[18:00] from my heart right now is just dead

[18:03] honesty. And honesty is the only way

[18:05] that you fix the problems. And you know,

[18:07] it's the only way that you expose the

[18:09] corruption and the nonsense and the

[18:11] games and the viteral hatred. And by the

[18:14] way, a lot of people in Australia need

[18:16] to start doing the exact same thing

[18:17] because you you you deal with a lot of

[18:19] the same societal issues that we do. in

[18:21] often cases sometimes a lot worse to

[18:23] tell you the truth.

[18:25] >> Tell me about your relationship with

[18:28] your wife. And that sounds like a very

[18:30] personal question, but but I'm not I

[18:32] don't need, you know, details, but I'd

[18:34] love to know how that has evolved

[18:36] because she over the past few years has

[18:40] just become an absolute powerhouse. And

[18:42] I think for me, what strikes me, you

[18:44] mentioned her similarities to your

[18:46] mother and she is strong. She doesn't

[18:48] take BS. She is terrifying because she

[18:51] she just knows her worth and she knows

[18:54] what matters, but she's also the

[18:56] kindest. I mean, she she never needed to

[18:59] help me in any way. She owed me nothing.

[19:01] I was a nobody to her. And even with

[19:04] Salem, signing with Salem, that was

[19:06] because of her. She connected me to the

[19:09] people uh coming to your place and doing

[19:11] an interview as an Aussie TV host that

[19:14] that wouldn't have even been on your

[19:15] radar. How is someone so incredibly

[19:18] tough and strong but so kind but such a

[19:21] great mother I'm assuming an incredible

[19:22] wife like talk to me about how she's

[19:24] evolved in your eyes.

[19:26] >> Yeah, she comes in the book a lot

[19:28] actually. I mean Laura's a rock. I mean

[19:30] she's been a rock in every way and it's

[19:32] funny. I I met her she was early in her

[19:33] career. She was thinking about doing you

[19:35] know the pastry chef thing. She was at

[19:36] culinary school and she always had a a

[19:39] great, you know, and she ended up doing

[19:41] that and she ended up going on TV. She

[19:42] was on um she was on on CBS. She was

[19:45] producer for Inside Edition and uh all

[19:47] of a sudden she came into politics and

[19:49] my father asked her because she was from

[19:51] the great state of North Carolina to run

[19:53] the campaign in North Carolina and we

[19:55] won North Carolina in 2016 and against

[19:57] all odds and you know she rose the ranks

[20:00] she ended up taking over the head of the

[20:01] the Republican National Party in in the

[20:03] United States of America and you know

[20:05] blew the Democrats out of the water and

[20:07] and just honestly and then you see her

[20:09] career at Fox right now. I mean, she has

[20:11] number one show over here on the

[20:12] weekends. And you know, all of that she

[20:14] she juggles while being a phenomenal

[20:16] mom. I mean, literally two minutes ago,

[20:18] she's trying to hop between planes. You

[20:19] know, honey, are you taking your kid?

[20:21] Are we taking the kids to jiu-jitsu? I'm

[20:22] so sorry I can't be there today. And and

[20:25] literally, I mean, she's just she's a

[20:27] rockar in every way. And by the way, she

[20:29] freaking adores you. I I mean, she would

[20:31] and I remember when she was on your show

[20:33] every, you know, every week. And and I

[20:34] go, "Honey, in all fairness,

[20:36] >> I discovered I discovered it. H how many

[20:38] voters do we really have in Australia?

[20:40] Like, you know, we're in the middle of a

[20:41] presidential campaign like like you

[20:43] might want to focus on Pennsylvania, not

[20:44] Australia. And

[20:47] yeah, I was totally trying to sabotage

[20:49] you, by the way. And then and then I I

[20:50] met you for the first time, but for the

[20:51] longest time, it's I got to go on air.

[20:53] I'm going to go on uh on TV in

[20:55] Australia. But she freaking adores you

[20:58] and uh and it's just it's been it's been

[21:00] fun to watch. But it's been a lot of fun

[21:02] to see her get this independent voice

[21:05] where she doesn't need to be mean. She

[21:07] doesn't need to be nasty. She can do it

[21:08] with a smile on her face and such grace.

[21:11] You know, I think it's hard for a lot of

[21:13] people, including me, to do that, right?

[21:14] I mean, there's a certain point where

[21:15] you just get angry, you get frustrated,

[21:17] you get annoyed, right? And, you know,

[21:19] you're speaking from your heart, but I

[21:21] saw her just dismantle people and she

[21:24] could do it with this beautiful smile on

[21:26] her face. You know, while uh, you know,

[21:29] about 4 seconds after dropping her kids

[21:31] off at school, she's a remarkable wife,

[21:33] a remarkable mom. She does everything

[21:35] well. She is a power woman to the nth

[21:38] degree and um couldn't have anybody

[21:41] better by my side. She's uh she's the

[21:43] greatest. The absolute greatest. And by

[21:45] the way, she's in by far the best shape

[21:47] of anybody in the Trump family. I mean,

[21:48] she's got a

[21:49] >> you know,

[21:51] >> you know, on her worst days, she's got a

[21:52] six-pack. On her best days, it's a

[21:54] 12-pack. And uh you know, and and you do

[21:57] not want to do the My Secret Service

[21:58] guys know very well, you do not want to

[22:00] do cardio against Laura Trump. Do not do

[22:02] not do not go run hills with Laura Trump

[22:05] because you know you know she she she

[22:07] literally kills guys who came out of the

[22:09] Marine Corps about 3 days ago and uh you

[22:11] know it makes them collapse and she's

[22:13] sitting there bopping like she never

[22:14] even you know broke a sweat. It's uh you

[22:17] that's the worst way to finish this. I

[22:19] was walking with my daughter yesterday

[22:20] and this guy was walking his dog and my

[22:22] daughter tells him a that I have a chin

[22:24] hair and b that I'm sucking my stomach

[22:26] in which I was cuz I don't have abs. So

[22:29] that's really that's even more

[22:31] depressing. Final quick question. Who

[22:33] would make a better president? You or

[22:35] her?

[22:35] >> Oh god. Well, I have to say me. I mean,

[22:37] I'm a Trump. Like you I mean, come on.

[22:40] You know my genetics. If I if I was

[22:41] wired to say somebody else, like I think

[22:43] I I think we would all right. It's uh

[22:45] >> we'd have to do a genetic test.

[22:47] >> She would she she would be phenomenal.

[22:49] She's a great leader. She's a great

[22:50] incredible woman. She could do it, too.

[22:51] I mean, you want to talk about powerful

[22:53] voice and and and and somebody who's

[22:54] created a a true grassroots movement of

[22:57] support and love. People People adore

[22:59] Laura. She would do a great job. Um, you

[23:02] know, she's she's certainly more patient

[23:03] than I am, which is either a good thing

[23:06] or a really bad thing. I'm not sure.

[23:07] She's she's certainly more graceful and

[23:10] um but uh amazing amazing woman, uh

[23:14] amazing wife, amazing mom, amazing

[23:17] career, um beloved by our family, and um

[23:22] you don't know. It's It's weird how the

[23:23] world works out, but uh she played a a

[23:26] damn big part of this whole journey that

[23:28] we've been on, and thank God she was

[23:30] there because it could have turned out

[23:31] very differently.

[23:32] >> Bless you. Bless your whole family.

[23:34] Thank you so very much for giving me

[23:36] time, and I'm so glad Lara didn't

[23:37] discourage you from doing this like you

[23:39] tried to discourage her from doing my

[23:40] show.

[23:41] >> Thank you so so much for joining us here
