Chapter 1: What bizarre claims did Trump make in his interview?

00:00 - 00:18 Ben Meiselas

What was that? Donald Trump's interview on Fox moments ago, bizarre to say the least. A total disaster. It was with Laura Ingraham, and Donald Trump points out on his desk that the button you see is for his Coca-Cola. It's not the nuclear codes, he says. Here, play this clip.

0

00:18 - 00:25 Donald Trump

It's a Coke button. It's right here. Everyone thinks that's the nuclear... Everyone thinks that's their nuclear weapon.

0

00:26 - 00:29 Ben Meiselas

Seriously? Then Donald Trump says this? Let's play it.

0

Chapter 2: How does Trump propose to address the national debt?

00:30 - 00:38 Laura Ingraham

Going down when we're servicing our debt to the tune of about $1.2 trillion a year. And there's still there's still deficit spending in Congress.

0

00:39 - 01:02 Donald Trump

How do we do that? We have to pay off our debt. We have to start paying off. Look, we're very under leveraged when you look at the asset value of this country. But we're over leveraged in terms of cash flow. We're going to have big cash flow. We're going to take in. For years, we allowed our country to be raped and pillaged, raped and pillaged, terrible expressions. And that's what happened.

0

01:02 - 01:04 Donald Trump

Much of it was done by our friends.

0

01:04 - 01:17 Ben Meiselas

Next, Donald Trump talks about the trillions of dollars that the country is going to make by selling Trump gold cards to Chinese and Russian oligarchs. Seriously, play it.

0

Chapter 3: What is Trump's plan for the 'Trump Gold Card'?

01:17 - 01:37 Donald Trump

Let's say we sell a million of them. That's $5 trillion. We are now an unbelievably successful country, paying down tremendous amounts of debt. It's all going to pay down debt. We're going to have very little debt. But if you did think of it, if you did, $5 million.

0

01:37 - 01:46 Ben Meiselas

Donald Trump then says the country has been fat, dumb, and foolish. Looking in the mirror, here to play this clip.

0

01:46 - 01:47 Laura Ingraham

It could be a summit in June.

0

01:48 - 02:02 Donald Trump

It could be. I mean, I wouldn't mind a summit, but there's going to be something else taking place. It's called April 2nd, and that's going to be tariffs. And China will pay and other countries will pay. We've been ripped off by every country in the world.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

friend and foe and on april 2nd i call it the liberation of america we've been the fat dumb foolish country that allowed everybody to rip us off including us next up donald trump shows laura ingraham a photo of the declaration of independence which he pretends is the original copy of the declaration of independence It is not the actual Declaration of Independence. It's not the original.

00:00 - 00:00 Ben Meiselas

But this is what hucksters do. Play this clip.

00:00 - 00:00 Laura Ingraham

Wow.

00:00 - 00:00 Donald Trump

And they ask that this be done. It's never been up. It's been in the vaults for many, many decades. And they said, we have to do something like grapes or something because the light eventually affects it. And it's very cool.

00:00 - 00:00 Laura Ingraham

Oh my gosh.

Chapter 4: Why does Trump consider himself a nationalist?

03:45 - 03:47 Laura Ingraham

Why should an American kid become a computer scientist?

0

03:47 - 04:03 Donald Trump

And by the way, they're going to call it either the gold card. The problem is there's many gold cards. I will tell you what my people want to call it. It'll drive you crazy. It'll drive the left crazy. They want to call it the Trump card because the Trump card sells much better than the gold card. Everybody has a gold card.

0

04:03 - 04:11 Laura Ingraham

So you're not worried about any unsavory people coming in and taking it? Yeah, I'm worried about unsavory, in which case we're going to give them the money back and they get out.

0

04:11 - 04:27 Donald Trump

They'll be properly vetted. They're going to be properly vetted. But, you know, we're talking about a lot of people. I think it's going to be very successful. If somebody's wrong, we actually are very nice because it makes it a lot easier legally. We give them their money back and we send them out.

0

Chapter 5: What are Trump's thoughts on the 2020 election and 2024 run?

04:29 - 04:52 Ben Meiselas

So as American people are suffering now economically, as prices are not going down, as people are seeing their pensions and 401ks and life savings disappear, as Donald Trump lies about all of his promises, should we call it the gold card for the oligarchs or do we call it the Trump card? So ridiculous. Next, Donald Trump says that he's a nationalist.

0

04:52 - 04:58 Ben Meiselas

And as a nationalist, he will make sure America does less business with Europe. Here, play this clip.

0

04:58 - 05:13 Donald Trump

From somewhere. Some of it's going to come from Europe because not everybody's going to be doing as much business maybe in Europe and other places. But I can only speak for the United States. And I am a nationalist and I'm proud of it. I love this country. And I want to help other countries too.

0

05:14 - 05:26 Ben Meiselas

Then Donald Trump and Laura Ingraham walk outside of the White House, and he says that he wasn't sure about running in 2024 because he says the 2020 election was rigged. Play it.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Laura Ingraham

You're coming back into office when you walked out of here. Well, I felt that, but I didn't know.

Chapter 6: Why is Trump paving over the Rose Garden?

05:32 - 05:44 Donald Trump

Let me say it. I didn't know if I was going to run because I. knew how much I won that election by. But if I thought I didn't win the election, I absolutely wouldn't have run.

0

05:45 - 06:06 Ben Meiselas

But... He's still whining about the 2020 election right now. This guy is a perpetual whiner. Next up, Donald Trump talks about why he's paving over the Rose Garden because of women's high heels who walk over the Rose Garden. Play it. Mm-hmm. After you. Thank you.

0

06:08 - 06:21 Donald Trump

Are you paving over the grass here? What was happening is they're supposed to have events. Every event you have, it's soaking wet. It's soaking wet, and people can't. And the women with the high heels, it's just too much.

0

06:21 - 06:23 Laura Ingraham

That's where you did the Kavanaugh thing.

0

00:00 - 00:00 Donald Trump

That's right. Amy Coney Barrett. The grass just, it doesn't work. And we have a...

00:00 - 00:00 Donald Trump

gorgeous zone and everything else but you know we use it for press conferences and it doesn't work because the people fall into the you know into the wet the roses stay the grass grows no it's a rose garden no all of this is just the center section it's gonna I think it's gonna be beautiful I think it's gonna be more beautiful look at that view over there
