00:00Have you decided you're definitely going to send National Guard troops to Chicago?
00:05I didn't say when, but the answer is, look,
00:08Chicago's very interesting, because I watched Pritzker get up and say about,
00:12we don't need help, we're safe, but two weeks ago, they had
00:16six people murdered, murdered, and they had
00:2024 people hit by bullets. Last week, as you know,
00:25it was seven people, 24 people hit, and seven people died.
00:29And then, over the last two days, it was the, that was the crown jewel.
00:35They had, I guess, nine killed, nine or ten killed,
00:38and 50 hit with bullets. And you have this governor,
00:42get up, who's a terrible governor, probably, he and
00:46Gavin Newsom would be probably the two worst, and most naive.
00:50They're naive. Either they're naive or they're very untruthful.
00:54And he'll say, we don't want any protection, we don't need.
00:58So, in the last three weeks, he's lost almost 20 people
01:02killed. There's no place, there's no place in the world,
01:07including, you can go to Afghanistan, you can go to places that you would think of.
01:12They don't even come close to this.
01:14Chicago is a hellhole right now. Baltimore is a hellhole right now.
01:19Parts of Los Angeles are terrible. If we didn't put out the fires,
01:22and I mean the other fires, the bullet fires,
01:25they didn't do a good job with it. They should have had the water coming down, like I said.
01:30You know, we had to release the water. We had to go in and release the water to L.A.
01:34It's so badly run. But if we didn't get, if I didn't send the National Guard into Los Angeles,
01:39you wouldn't, I would be making an announcement today, I'd be talking about Huntsville,
01:43and I'd simultaneously be saying, by the way, the Olympics is not coming
01:47to Los Angeles. If we didn't do that, if we didn't do that, and even the sheriff,
01:52the top law enforcement person in Los Angeles said, we could not have handled it without them.
02:00So, that's what he said.
02:01You made your mind up on Chicago, though?
02:03Well, we're going in. I didn't say when. We're going in. So, I'm very proud of Washington.
02:08It serves as a template, and we're going to do it elsewhere. But Chicago is certainly going to be high.
02:14I would love to have him call. I would love the governor of Illinois. I'd be honored to take his
02:20call. All he has to do is say, sir, we need help. It's out of control. And everyone knows it is.
02:25He's not kidding anyone. I would love to have, I would say, Governor Moore call, because I watched
02:32him over the weekend trying to explain that Baltimore, what they need is housing. No, they don't
02:38need housing. They need to get rid of the criminals. These are hardcore criminals. You know, we took
02:43many people off the streets of Washington, D.C. They're hardcore. They're not going to be good.
02:50In 10 years, in 20 years, in two years, they're going to be criminals. They're going to be,
02:54they were born to be criminals, frankly. They were born to be criminals, and they're tough and mean,
03:00and they'll cut your throat, and they won't even think about it the next day. They won't even
03:05remember that they did it.
