Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his: > And in New Hampshire, the sanctimonious is now falling into fifth place. Oh, have I done a number in that guy? Have we done a number on him? Guy had no chance of getting elected, Governor. He came to see me, little tears in his eyes. He came to see me, "Sir, I need your help. What do you need my help for?" I didn't even know him that well, but he was one of about 100 congressmen that would talk about impeachment hooks, number one, and impeachment hooks, number two on televisions. I saw him a little bit. I need your help, sir, of not winning in Florida. He was losing by like 30 points or more, losing, he was getting killed. It was over for him with the primary taking place in a short period of time. And I said, "Ron, if I were George Washington and Abraham Lincoln combined and I came back from the dead and I endorsed you, I don't think it would matter. You're God, man." He said, "Sir, you're very popular in Florida. You know, I got 1.2 million more votes than him. You keep hearing how many votes. I got 1.2 million votes than him, and I'm the one that turned Florida red. Not him." He didn't tell them. They all go on my fumes. But I said, "If you do that," then I said, "Look, you know, I didn't know the secretary of agriculture. His name is Adam Putnam, nice guy, but he was leading by numbers that were like not as much as I'm leading these guys by, but he was leading by big numbers. It was over. They were already measuring the carpet in the statehouse. They were going to have the most beautiful carpet you've ever seen in the mansion, as they call it. But I said, "All right, Ron, let's do it," and I did it, and this guy went up like a rocket ship. I've never seen anything like it. He was dead. In other words, without me, he was dead. And then they asked him, and then I helped him get through the general election. By the way, he was running against a very hot guy. He turned out to be a crackhead, but these are minor projects. But he was the hottest. Him and Stacey Abrams were the two hottest female male politicians in the country, Democrats. And he said, "I won't be able to beat them." I gave him three giant Trump rallies. I said, "You're going to win, Ron. I don't think so, sir, anyone, okay?" Then four years later they said, "Will you run against the president?" He said, "I have no comment." I said, "No comment. That means that guy's running." ## Engagement - Likes: 0 - Reposts: 0 - Replies: 0 - Views: unknown - Metrics collected: 2026-02-01T01:19:51.396Z (UTC) # Analysis _No analysis has been generated for this post._ Analysis for other posts is at https://trump.fm/post/{id}/analysis. ## Citation - APA: Trump, D.
