you way they will do this kinds of stuff. never done like this in the history of the country to this extent. people are pleading with the prosecutor. don't do temperature it is wrong. democrats and even people that are not exactly my fans are saying don't do t. >> because i did not do anything wrong. let me ask you this, then. i thought about this left week. you other president of the united states. and i saw your post on truth social. and i read the reports in the new york times and i saw punnedance all over media speculating that you were going to be arrested. that would money you would be rested >> couple years ago >> arraigned, a mug shot, fingerprints and may be hundred cuffed. when you think about 1600 pennsylvania avenue and then this, how do you deal with this?

>> i sdeem we are dealing with dishonest people and thugs and dealing with people i believe that hate our country. last night i had a rally with tens of thousands of people like the press admitted there were 25 or 30,000 people. can you double it at least in texas waco, texas. it was like a love fest. it was incredible and at the same time they are people that feel they have been hurt boy the way this country is being run. look in texas an example and arizona look at the border. that is affected all the. they walk through texas and arizona it is affecting every state in the union and our country i predicted the end they are giving fake anybodies predict the end of the year 15 admissible people larger than new york state will come from mental institutions insane asylums from prisons.

man at that time an dc in disagreement regarding your case. monday of last week bob costelo gives devastating testimony if you are look for an sdiement from the grand your. >> to the other side. >> a letter is from february of upon 2018. micheal cohen's lawyer. and that was toward you. totally and your company and the campaign. and lastly, tmz had a report brought it become out and in the daily i mail and "washington post." the second piece i put up on the screen, is stormy daniels denotice in writing you had a relationship >> yea. >> my question is this. and deny today on many other occasions, too much i never had a relationship with her. i never had an affair with her t. is all made up. >> all this information this came out in your favor, you

talked about death and destruction. and the baseball bat picture. and you did take that down and my question why open yourself to criticism. >> you have to understand that when the story was put up. i put up a story we did not see pictures. a story was a good store frethe standpoint of when we are talking about. they put up a picture of me and you know where i was holding the bat at the white house make america, buy america i did a lot of buy america things this company makes baseball bats and next to that picture a picture of alvin brag. i did not do it they did it. the i guess the people that dot paper or somebody put pictures. i was holding a baseball about the to promote made in america >> not on your post >> no what they did is we posted the story but they had a picture up and then a picture or the

picture was put up that nobody noticed. these were 2 separate pictures i was prosecute meeting med in america. you make these baseball bats instead of sends to item an and china. this was a company good company this makes baseball bats and other thing in america. they took that picture. from the white house and put it up and then they put a picture of alvin brag up. with death and destruction i does not say that i'm afraid. i'm afraid that if than i do this which is a fake prosecution we are my worse enemy say he is innocent. i can't believe. people never been positive to mow or defended mow that don't like me the other side of the world. these are people that said, you can't do this prosecution. it will cause tremendous practicals. i did not say do something bad. i'm afraid people will do something.

people are angry. here is a letter prosecute stormy daniels saying we never had an affair. here is one from a respected gentlemen. highly respected firm, mshg defer not, well and emary. writes a letter saying what i said was right and everything his client this . is his lawyer not mine and bob costelo is one of the most respected lawyers anywhere in the country. he served in the gentleman the highest positions all of that, he went in buzz we witnessed and a lawyer from michael cohen. he went in he saw what michael cohen was saying and said, that's a lie. that's terrible when he is. >> on my show last week and i thought he was amazing. he is doing that out of civic duty. i don't know him by the way. i know he represents people that i'm close to in ways. but i have to i don't know him.

i know this a highly respected person and could not stand. this was his line he could not stand to see this guy already a convicted a felon. he is jail this is on stuff not doing with me. his reputation is terrible before this he was a normal lawyer it made sense to use member like that. he was a fixture they use that term. he was a lawyer but one of many, many larceny. >> that letter say in private transaction before the u.s. presidential election mr. cohen used his own funds for the 130 thoundz thousand payment to mrs. clifford north the trump organization nor campaign wasave party with mrs. clifford and neither reimburses mr. cohen and this they go on to say neither cohen or llc made in kind contributions to you.

your campaign per president or any presidential campaign committee. and that he was not a government employee at the time. and the payment in question does not constitute a campaign contribution that is your star witness j. he probably did this to ingrateiate thoimg me that would be may be mart to do but probably did that to ingrateiate himself. if you electric at the letter it is perfect. you have others that this say it would not have mattered there was no campaign contribution, et cetera. the you look at that letter and spells it morek ritly the fac looked at this and turned it down >> fac, doj, previous man at that time an da and alvin brag originally yoochl he turn today down >> you know who else bob mueller. this is history y. i will be clear you did not post the

picture of you with i baseball bat in the oval on whiches next to the picture with brag? >> i posted a positive article and whatever picture they put up they put up. i think the picture was in the article or put in the article later. but again that was a baseball bat to promote made in america companies making america. don't go to japan to buy >> you know how it was intercepted that is the fake news media. they take anything you can say and anything you say and they say, the opposite. the democrats are genius at a few things. they are horrible at foreign relithes and horrible at policy, horrible at everything they are good at a number of things though, misinformation or disinformation depending on your definition but both. get misinformation. electric at when they said about

russia, russia hoax i watch shift getting up in congress and repeating my conversation that was wrong. i did not tell them we had the phone call taped. i said good sue him and take him down you are not allowed he is allow to loyal. he reported a total low fake conversation. buff they go misinformation. russia, russia, russia was misinformation. all of the hoaxes have been. >> i covered rush why for 3 years and accurate low >> you got it right as affirmed. you and a number of people got it right >> we had an entire. >> sarah carter a number of us. the people that got it wrong. they got it prize and you know when we are doing we sued the pulitzer foundation they are demeaning me trying to claim the times and the washington post,

everybody now discredited they said they made a mistake. fine. but if they reporters got it for thekerate reporting of rush why than i have to take it back the pulitzer foundation will take the prizes back. i will close with this. and this is the left part about investigations. and this it is merrick locked at 2 issues one of the issues is about the document issue. >> right >> a problem for joe biden. mike pence volunteered and bigger for him than me. the biggest is for hillary. if you want to go in that and the e mills and everything else. just if i could joe biden as 1, 850 bok in delaware. think of that. 1, 850 boxes and boxes now in china town. now they say he is paid off by chien and boxes in china town and boxless at universal

everuniversity of pennsylvania and all overnight floor next to the corvette his beautiful corvette right. and nobody talks about this. why i don't know how you talk about mow when than i don't talk about joe biden what he did is so bad. >> i want to know the history. my understanding and correct mow in any point if i'm wrong is prior to the raid prior to the raid the fish had access to the very room where they found the documents >> right. >> we showed them the room. did they also call a day or 2 after and say, can you put a padlock on. why they did i understand they called my lawyer and -- said can you put another look. >> okay. my question is simple. why did ninot take the documents that day one. and number two, did the fish ever ask to come back? did they, did you deny the fbi

access that they requested to come become to that room or other room? >> so the fish was there. they showed them the room. i told them i said show them the documents do what you want. they could have taken the documents they did not ask about that the thing than i asked can you put an extra look. under look and key this was not all overnight floor of a garage with a garage you with buy for $117 and cut it with scissors and opened all of the time with the corvette. this was a look we had a strong look. they asked can we put a second one. i don't know the times and come in and raid we would have given them the stuff had than i asked this . it is election intrefrns. they are trying to make it look bad the raid did back fire bad low. people are i had people that were not my supporters that are

now supporters because of the raid. >> did they ever call you again and say, hey can we go become to that room? can we have access. >> yea and would have to be specific. but well, i think the larceny they did call the lawyers and they gave them access. they did not have to raid >> they should not have raided. the presidential record's act is specific and it had to do with richard niccon and the problem with documents for years and before nixon. and it is basically an instrument said it is in the criminal in any way. it says you are going to discuss the documents. you discuss everything not only documents, everything what is going in, et cetera. you will talk, talk, if you kent come to an agreement you will continue it talk. now obama has big disputes. bush has big disputes. i'm the one they come after they

want to interfere with the lect >> they had access and i'm asking you if you denied >> i don't know why. i was shocked i was called and said they raided. >> can we have access to would you. i would have said, yes >> up next part twof my interview with trumps we continue.

your rally, i would like to see election day a national holiday. i would like elections to be paper ballots making exceptions for the military and the sick and elderly. they can apply. an initial holiday partisan benchers watching the vote all day long when the poles close. watching the counting and at the end of the night you declare i winner. okay. it seems democrats are more involved in voting early. they are more involved in voting by mail and most stated have legal ballot harvesting. embraced by the democrats and not the republicaning. there are states exceptions like florida. you know you have now changed your position. do you think that republicans resistance to mail in ballots and voting early and ballot harvesting like dem accurates

was that the mistake in 2022. i never changed anything. what i did is say mail in ballots are corrupt. you will have dishonest elections. inference had mail in ballots and went become to paper and by 10 in the evening everybody was happy it was announced that was it. you want paper ballot and same day voting. we have elections where they sit arnold for 62 days. big box of ballots all over the floor you look what happened in atlanta and other accomplices, they have wheel barrels carrying ballots 62 day in cases. months of election and people say what is going on boxes from here to there. it is ridiculous we should have same day voting paper. >> we will not >> and signature verification and chain of custody controls and partisan >> democrats don't want it.

excuse the democrat voters want it 88% the democrat votersment it but the democrat pol tilgzs don't want. >> 2024, should republicans embrace early voting and voting by mail and the tactics of democrats and follow the ballot hankesting law sns >> they will have no choice we have to do it. if i were running and a nice, normal person doing a wonderful job. >> i can't get elected. you agree. no, i don't i knowledge you could get elect in the anything and would do i fantastic job if you were running for office as a person not very well known. people know me i'm going up during the hoax in new york and in by the way, with the boxes hoax. how can you look at me as an example with the box hoax and they don't talk about biden

where his 1850 boxes of stuff. as a senator he had classified. >> what about a senator >> hillary and james. no prosecutor would prosecute. unbelievable. if you look back to that that caused a problem in the fish. you know very happy about a couple of things. the approximate i'm happy we can straighten this out. this country is a mess we are a mess between inflation, economy the what happened in afghanistan start today buzz we look so incomp 10. putin said this is the time to take ukraine he never would have done this with me. i want to get in that i want to stay on the last part of this. because i think this is really very critical. um00 eye mentioned comey, no prosecutor would prosecute. deleted e mails. 33,000. device destroyed with hammers. sip cards removed.

hillary dirty, warrants based on this. now fast forward to 2020 you have fbi, than i had hunter biden laptop since december of 2019. we think thanks to the new york post and others the fbi was having weekly meetings with big tech you referred to a bit earlier. warning them about potential misinformation in the days leading up to the 2020 presidential election. former head of twitter site of integrity and i case in missouri now senator then certainly general submit was involved in said this the fbi said the misinformation may be about joe biden. men about hunter biden. they had this doesn't december of 2019 and anyhow your lawyer rudy guiliani had a copy knew it would like low be public and the

fish is telling big tech this will be misinformation? that information then got censored across the board. okay. mrin that to me? >> so, it is mass itch election interference, they said they knew it was the whole thing with russia they knew by that time the famous dassier was made up. democrats made it up. they to being this and sent it to everything and total low made up now everybody agrees to this. somebody should have been practice cuted and should issue this group this does now than i have all of the information. go a step further. they spied on my campaign you said a language time i hear than i spied on my campaign and that time truth is incredible. at this time i used twitter now i use truth. they want me back on twitter >> are you going back.

we will talk i love truth it is incredible this it is 389% the hottest thing there is. musk revalue twitter 20 million y. well it was not -- 20 billion y. he did a favor by letting people know how corrupt our government is that is what. think of it. so, they go in and they are interfearing with an election i bet the people in the fbi the agency and there is i would bet 90% of this vote. the top people when you look at comey he was just terrible. du see. i had to fire him. i fired him very early. a lot say you can't go quickly go through a process. >> just so you understand, i put chris riin because i wanted to have somebody in there that including the others they wanted

may not have been the right move. time will tell. i wanted machine in the fbi i'm an honorable and honest guy i may have made a make but i put somebody in the other side you know who recommended him chris christie. he recommended him and that's okay i don't mind that i taken his recommends before. and other peopleed wanted him. i think the. >> investigating if the fish's politicized i interviewed 2 of the whistle blowers there will be according to his committee dozens of fbi whistle blow exerts looking in the question you bruup the words last night. the weaponization of the department of justice. total. >> the question is they had the laptops since upon 2019. am they could have easily verify today within days i imagine. with the technology.

why they don't want to. >> okay. they knew your lawyer would likely like it and fbi agents meeting weekly with big tech saying it could be misinformation. the lawyer ksdz not like it they took it away and raided his army and took a lot of things he had. i think they to being it or took parts it. they raided a lawyer's and is a lawyer and a good one. rudy proven right about a lot of things with ukraine and others. but one thing i have to say lawyers i thought they were a little secretary. if you near litigation, the lawyers never bruin i have every time memberments to represent meand i have a lot of people that want to they think it is unfair the way we have been treated. they get called before grand juries and sued individually. i say sometimes are you sure you want to represent me i have

plenty of people weapon great spirit that do want top represent me and we have good people. but think of it, larceny for the first time i had lawyers that i have known calling me, do you think this is changing now where lawyers are sued for representing lawyers have to reveal every conversation with the client. i got that with the box hoax. garnt you biden does not have it and when he did with classified information. he stuff when he was a senator. i watched senators i watch democrat senators get on television and say i can't believe that are you serious. i known you for decades i can't imagine you ever saying, bring me the boxes that we brought back from the white house i'd like to look. >> i would have the right to do that nothing wrong with it. i know i don't think. i don't have a lot of time i would have the right to do that. i would do that. . >> remember this, this is the

presidential record's act i have the right to take stuff you know they paid richard nixon 18 million dollars. they did the presidential record's act i have the right to take stuff and electric at stuff. but they have the right to talk and we have the right to talk this would have been worked out they raided mar-a-lago vicious low. i have tape and i gave them take place i gave them tapes. i could have held that back. i was not holding anything back i carid gave them tape the tape they don't want me to reveal if possible they asked me and i adhered the raid itself. >> we have -- wait a minute. i will take that tape and i will air that tape. everybody would take that tame. >> no , i have tape they think it might be dangerous because of the face and everything else. i understand this. >> pixel them out. i have tapes of the raid and it
