Transcript
00:00Mr. Trump, could I ask you a question about Jerome Powell as well, and then a question to the Attorney General?
00:04The question about what?
00:05Jerome Powell, and then I have a question for the Attorney General.
00:08Jerome Powell, who you've been pressuring to lower interest rates, he's facing accusations of lying to Congress, which is a potential crime about the opulent.
00:16Well, then he should resign immediately. We should get somebody in there that's going to lower interest rates.
00:20Do you want congressional Republicans to investigate?
00:21Why don't you go for his resignation?
00:23Do you want congressional Republicans to investigate and pursue and punish?
00:26It's okay with me. I think he's terrible.
00:28I think, look, we're paying, I call him too late. T-O-O, too late. Like two tall jones for the Dallas Cowboys, right? Too late.
00:37He's always late. But he wasn't late with Biden before the election. He was cutting them like crazy. It didn't help too much, did it?
00:44But he was cutting them like crazy before the election with Kamala and Biden. He was trying to get them in, I guess. I don't know.
00:51He was recommended by somebody that worked for me. I like you better.
00:56If I can ask you.
