00:00That was really the thing that he said first and foremost.

00:02He said, if you're going to work with me, you better let me know that you love it.

00:06You better love it because I'll know.

00:07And if you don't perform because you don't like it and you don't enjoy it,

00:09you're never going to work here and I'll fire you like a dog.

00:30My son's a very good person, works very hard.

00:38The last thing he needs is Washington, D.C.

00:41He'd rather not ever be involved.

00:44Remember he said to me a long time ago when I was thinking about running,

00:48Dad, if I could help, let me know.

00:50It's not my expertise.

00:51It's not something I really like.

02:30I wasn't brought up with a father that plays catch with his son.

02:33I was brought up with a father who brings his son around construction sites.

02:36♪♪

02:48I'm going through it now in my mind,

02:50having to get on the stage in front of millions of people.

02:52My family's doing great.

02:53And to watch me, if I'm going to be miserable and blow it,

02:56they're going to be here to nurse me through it.

02:58So I'm excited.

02:59♪♪

03:16My son is here all the time, Don.

03:18He's a big fan.

03:21He's a hunter.

03:22He's a good hunter, that one.

03:24Few people can believe it.

03:25He grew up in a certain nice location in New York, like Fifth Avenue.

03:29He knows more about hunting and guns and rifles than maybe anybody here.

03:35That's a crazy thing.

03:37That's what he loves.

03:39A few people over there say I disagree with that.

03:41♪♪

04:11Mr. Trump had frequently told me and others

04:14that his son Don Jr. had the worst judgment of anyone in the world.

04:19♪♪

04:28I have a lot of different properties.

04:30But, again, my children run them, and I love my children,

04:35and I wish them well.

04:38I look forward to comparing my numbers to my children's numbers.

04:41I think I'll do better.

05:08♪♪

05:24The best is yet to come.

05:28♪♪

05:33And a very special thanks to my son Don Jr. and Kimberly.

05:37-♪♪

05:44Great job.

05:46Did Don Jr. give a good speech?

05:48-♪♪

05:51I heard that.

05:52They all said he was on fire while he's fighting.

05:56♪♪

06:18Imagine the life you want to have,

06:21one with a great job, a beautiful home, a perfect family.

06:24You can have it.

06:26That is the life.

06:28That is the country.

06:29That is the world that Donald Trump and the Republican Party are after.

06:34And, yes, you can have it.
