00:00A question for you on this specific issue.

00:05Do you expect more cities to follow D.C.'s path if this goes through?

00:09So the idea is that Chicago, L.A., San Francisco,

00:12would they expect similar action what we've seen in D.C.?

00:15Any other questions, sir?

00:16There is reporting that the administration is going to reclassify marijuana.

00:20Would that send mixed messages that if marijuana is okay,

00:23some drugs are okay, or we're trying to clean up crime?

00:25How do they go hand-in-hand?

00:26We're only looking at that. That's early.

00:28But, you know, somebody reported it, which is fine.

00:30We're looking at it. Some people like it. Some people hate it.

00:33Some people hate the whole concept of marijuana,

00:35because if it does bad for the children,

00:37it does bad for people that are older than children.

00:40But we're looking at reclassification,

00:42and we'll make a determination over the next,

00:44I would say, over the next few weeks.

00:46And that determination hopefully will be the right one.

00:49It's a very complicated subject, you know, the subject of marijuana.

00:52I've heard great things having to do with medical,

00:55and I've had bad things having to do with just about everything else.

00:58But medical and, you know, for pain and various things,

01:02I've heard some pretty good things.

01:03But for other things, I've heard some pretty bad things.

01:06The other part of your question, I mean,

01:10we're just going to see what happens with it all.

01:12You're going to have...

01:13We're going to have a tremendous success in what we're doing.

01:16Other cities are hopefully watching this.

01:19They're all watching, just like everyone's watching here.

01:22They're all watching.

01:23And maybe they'll self-clean up,

01:27and maybe they'll self-do this and get rid of the cashless bail thing

01:31and all of the things that caused the problem.

01:33I mean, if you go back, this whole thing with cashless bail is a disaster.

01:37So many problems came that we never had before.

01:41So they're watching us today.

01:44And if they don't learn their lesson, if they haven't studied us properly,

01:48because we're going to be very successful.

01:49I have zero doubt about that.

01:51It's going to be...

01:52It's a question of will it be really fast, like the border.

01:55And everyone said, they used to say, Biden used to say,

01:58I need legislation.

01:59I need...

02:00You didn't need...

02:01I didn't get any legislation.

02:02I called up our people, and we did a great job.

02:08Tom Homan was great.

02:10Our...

02:11As you know, our secretary did a great job.

02:13They did a great job.

02:14There's no games.

02:15They didn't play games.

02:16And we're going to have the same thing here.

02:18But then I'm going to look at New York in a little while.

02:22Let's do this.

02:23Let's do this together.

02:24Let's see.

02:25It's going to go pretty quickly.

02:26And if we need to, we're going to do the same thing in Chicago,

02:30which is a disaster.

02:31We have a mayor there who's totally incompetent.

02:33He's an incompetent man.

02:36And we have an incompetent governor there.

02:39Pritzker's an incompetent.

02:40His family threw him out of the business, and he ran for governor.

02:45And now I understand he wants to be president.

02:48But I noticed he lost a little weight, so maybe he has a chance.

02:51You know?

02:52You never know what happens.

02:53But Pritzker's a gross incompetent guy thrown out of the family business.

02:57But when I look at Chicago and I look at L.A., if we didn't go to L.A. three months ago,

03:06L.A. would be burning like the part that didn't burn.

03:09If he would have allowed the water to come down, which I told him about in my first term,

03:14I said, you're going to have problems.

03:15Let it come down.

03:16We actually sent in our military to have the water come down into L.A.

03:20They still didn't want it to come down after the fires.

03:22But that was it.

03:24We have it coming down.

03:25But hopefully L.A. is watching.

03:28That mayor also, the city's burning.

03:31They lost like 25,000 homes.

03:33I went there the day after the fire.

03:35You were there.

03:36And I saw people standing in front of a burned-down home.

03:40Their homes were incinerated.

03:42They weren't like, even the steel was literally, it was all warped and literally disintegrated

03:49because of the winds and the flame and the whole thing, like a blowtorch.

03:52They were standing on this beautiful day, maybe a couple of days after.

03:57We gave it a little time because what they had suffered.

04:01Almost 25,000 homes.

04:03And you see what's happening now.

04:05They didn't give their permits.

04:06I went to a town hall meeting.

04:07I said, we're going to get you the federal permits, which are much harder.

04:11Almost immediately.

04:14Lee Zeldin is a star.

04:15He did an incredible job.

04:16They have all their federal permits.

04:18They don't have their city permits.

04:20And the mayor said to me, we think we can have them in two years.

04:23I was walking down the street and I met with firemen and police.

04:28And I was saying hello to many people that were standing in front of their homes with yellow tape.

04:34You can't go in.

04:35You can't go onto the lot.

04:36And those people wanted to start rebuilding their homes then and there.

04:40And the mayor said, we should be able to get them the permits within two years.

04:43I said, that's a shame.

04:44Two years.

04:45Are you kidding?

04:46I'm going to get them the federal permit, like almost immediately.

04:48Two years.

04:49Two years.

04:50And she drew it back.

04:51Well, maybe one year.

04:52The place was booing her out of the place.

04:54They don't have their permits to build their homes.

04:57And now they're talking about putting this is among the most beautiful areas was in the country.

05:03Now they're talking about putting low income housing there.

05:06Can you believe this?

05:08I love low income housing.

05:09I made money with low income housing.

05:11I built low income housing.

05:12I know more about low income housing and luxury house.

05:14I know about everything real estate.

05:17They want to replace some of those homes with low income housing.

05:22They haven't gotten their permits yet.

05:24We've gotten all the federal permits, which are much tougher to get.

05:28And it was done almost immediately through Lee Zeldin and federal environmental.

05:32And I watched the other day.

05:34Those people are angry.

05:35And now, you know, they had tremendous.

05:37They love that area.

05:38They loved a whole big area, different places, but they loved it.

05:42It was all luxury stuff and beautiful stuff.

05:44And some wasn't that luxury.

05:46But the level of love for that neighborhood, their neighborhoods, was incredible.

05:51And you know what?

05:53I watched people on television.

05:54They want to go.

05:55They want to leave.

05:56They've lost their spirit.

05:57They've lost their heart.

05:58Because the mayor is incompetent.

06:00And Gavin Newsom is incompetent.

06:03Got a good line of bullshit, but that's about it.

06:05He's incompetent.

06:06And you have Los Angeles is, you know, it's amazing.

06:10You know, I called.

06:11The first thing I did, I got the Olympics to go there.

06:13I was the one that got it.

06:15And by a rare thing that happened, I'll be the president.

06:18I was very upset because I got the Olympics.

06:20And I said, I won't be president when it comes.

06:22But bad things happened and illegal things happened.

06:26Really illegal things happened.

06:27Now it turns out one good thing was I'm going to be the president for the Olympics for 2050,

06:33for 250, which is going to be fantastic, and also for the World Cup.

06:37So we have a lot of good things.

06:39And I hope 250 is going to be the 250th anniversary is going to be the best.

06:43But when I looked at those people, and I saw last night on television,

06:48that they still don't have their permits, it's a disgrace what's happened in Los Angeles.
