- Let me ask about the economy. I know that they said from the beginning that Biden's inflation, which they inherited 1.4%, it's up over 20%. 25% of Americans say that they've had to forego meals. 60 plus percent of Americans said that they're gulping water because of Joe Biden's economic policies and Biden inflation. How do you fix that? And how quickly do you think you can fix that? - Well, we have to fix it fast. And what they're doing is the illegal migrants that are pouring into our countries, many of them are staying in luxury hotels all over our country. They're being shipped up. You know, as we say now, every state is a border state, whether it's Idaho or Iowa or Ohio. It doesn't make any difference. They're all border because they're pouring through our country. One of the stats that was incredible, I actually saw it on you first, was when it came out that we're actually flying them in. So it's not just a question of these people coming through totally unchecked and unvetted. They're flying tens of thousands of people into our country, migrants. And many of these people were not people that were welcome to stay in their countries. They're coming up here. And when I originally said, I said, they are not sending their finest. These are people that are coming from other countries, Sean, where the president, whoever is running the country, including the dictators, they're sending them into our country. And if you look at Venezuela, their crime is down 72%. Their crime, think of it, down 72 and ours is up. And we're gonna have a new form of crime because these people are just getting comfortable. They're just getting settled in. We're gonna have a new form of crime and it's called Biden migrant crime. And that's a new category. And it's a very serious category. And it might blow all of our crime out the window because frankly, you could probably double. What I told you, those numbers in Chicago were 17 people dying this weekend. Think of it, over a weekend, over a three-day period, four-day period, you had over 100 people shot and 17 people dead. And that probably doesn't include the migrants, although I guarantee you there was some of that in there too. We have a new form, it's this new category and it's gonna be very, very serious for a long time to come. And we have to get them out of our country. We don't want them out. They drop them out of their jails and prisons. We don't want them in our country. It's not sustainable by any country. - You know, it's amazing. When you came down that escalator in 2015 and you said some are very good people, they want a better life and then there are gonna be bad people and there'll be murder and rape. It's unfolding, you know, look at Lake and Riley on down and young girls being raped in broad daylight. This young girl in Texas that was killed, the mother of five. Let me ask you one last question if I may. And I know this was last minute. Thanks for calling in tonight. And I wanna ask you about your VP choice. How soon do you think you'll be making that choice, number one? Number two, we keep reading that there is a short list and on the short list, we hear names like Senator Rubio, Senator Tim Scott, Senator JD Vance, Governor Burgum. Is that, are those reports accurate? Are there other people maybe people aren't paying attention to and when do you think you'll announce that? - Well, you know, we started off with a lot of people who have a lot of good people, as they call it. We have a great bench in the Republican party. The names that you mentioned, absolutely they're under consideration. And I haven't made final decision, but I have some ideas as to where we're going. And a little bit, you know, we wanted to see what they're doing, to be honest, because, you know, it might make a difference. I don't know, I'm not sure that it would, but there are those that say Trump's waiting until he finds out what's gonna happen with crooked Joe Biden. And we'll see what happens with Biden. But, you know, I think probably within the next week, week and a half, probably sometime, I'd love to do it during the convention. My people say that's a little complicated. You know, in the old days, they would announce the vice president during the convention. Today, with modern day technology, you can't do things that you could have done 50 years ago very easily. But probably a little before the convention, but not much. It could even be during the convention that would do it. I'd love to do it during the convention. I think it would be a very interesting buildup and important for the convention. It would make it even more exciting. It's gonna be amazing in Milwaukee. - If you announced it right now on this show, I think it would make a lot of news. I'm just saying. - Well, if I did it, I'd love to do it with you. But we'll be announcing soon. - Thank you. - And I think everybody's gonna be very happy. The choice will be very, very good. It's gonna be a great vice president, meaning a person that can do a fantastic job as president, because you always have to think of that first. And then second, somebody that helps you get elected. And there's nothing wrong with that. - Mr. President, thank you for your time tonight. We appreciate it. - Thank you very much, John. Thank you. All right.
