00:00100% tariff the day they mentioned that they want to do it and they will come back and say
00:06we beg you we beg you not to do this. Bricks is dead since I mentioned that. Bricks died the
00:13minute I mentioned that and I know I remember when Obama and Biden in particular I guess he said that
00:22oh they have us over a barrel they don't have us over a barrel we have them over a barrel.
00:27Well if Bricks wants to play games those countries won't trade with us we won't trade with them and if
00:34any trading gets through it'll be 100% tariff at least.
00:37You know what when they hear that what do you think they're going to do they're going to say look
00:41what happened to Bricks I didn't want to talk about it they don't they don't even want to admit that
00:45they were a member of Bricks that's what's happened.
00:47On your cabinet sir we saw Robert F. Kennedy Jr. get confirmed he's going to come in here and be
00:52sworn in. Mitch McConnell has now voted against several of your nominees he voted against
00:56RFK Jr. as the next health secretary citing conspiracy theories. What's your reaction to that?
01:02Well I feel sorry for Mitch and I was one of the people that led he couldn't he wanted to
01:07go to the end and he wanted to say leader he wasn't he's not equipped mentally he wasn't equipped 10
01:13years ago mentally in my opinion.
01:14He'd let the Republican Party go to hell if I didn't come along the Republican Party wouldn't even exist right
01:19now. Mitch McConnell
01:22never really had it he had an ability to raise money because of his position as leader which anybody could
01:28do you could do it even and that's saying a lot but the fact is that he raised money and
01:34he gave a lot of money to senators and so he had a little loyalty based on the fact that
01:37as leader you could raise a lot of money senators would call me and they say he wants to give
01:42me 20 25 million can I take it I'd say take the money take the money.
01:47But he but he so he engendered a certain amount of I don't even call it loyalty he you know
01:52is able to get votes but I was the one that got him to drop out of the leadership position
01:59so he can't love me but he's not voting against Bobby he's voting against me but that's all right.
02:04He endorsed me you know Mitch do you know Mitch endorsed me right you think that was easy what he
02:10had polio obviously and I don't know I don't know anything about he had polio he had polio I have
02:18no idea if he had polio all I can tell you about him is that he shouldn't have been leader
02:22he knows that he voted against Bobby votes against almost everything now he's a you know very bitter guy.
02:30and uh we have a very strong party and he's almost not even really a very powerful member he's lost
02:39his power and uh it's affected his vote and you know it's one of those things but in the meantime
02:46Bobby did great got more votes than anybody thought and I think he's going to do phenomenally just phenomenally in
02:52that position
02:53and everybody else likewise did well not only well they got more votes than anybody thought um Tulsi look at
03:03how she did she did great
03:05uh Marco got 99 votes how about that Marco got Marco got 99 votes and Marco by the way I
03:12have to tell you Marco Rubio's done a fantastic job
03:15he's been uh a great secretary of state they're all doing great but we're going to have a swearing in
03:21today and maybe we're going to have a second one because I hear we have a couple of them coming
03:24up
03:25and uh the man behind me is doing a fantastic job secretary of commerce and I think you're going to
03:32see something very big come from uh from today's signing this is going to be a very important signing
03:37okay you said you'd meet with the head of that company and the Japanese company is going to be here
03:45a lot of a lot of the steel companies are coming I think uh steel companies they love what's happening
03:51to
03:51them we saved it if if I didn't do the tariffs from my first term you wouldn't have one steel
03:56company
03:57here you wouldn't have one steel there wouldn't be a steel company alive in the United States
04:01and right now they they're going to be thriving they're doing very well but they're going to be thriving
04:06they're going to be coming out people are going to want to buy those steel companies like crazy
04:10are you still planning to mediate talks between on steel and U.S. steel yeah I don't know
04:16I think U.S. steel right now has all the power the tariffs have given U.S. steel a new
04:22lease on life
04:23okay thank you all very much
04:26thank you
