Trump: “If I Were Running Today, I Think I’d Win By 25 Points”
Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen interviewed President Donald Trump, which aired Thursday on WABC-AM.
MICHAEL COHEN: Sir, you may remember, you may remember that following morning, you called me into the office after and then you gave me one of those traditional Trump slaps on the shoulder and you said to me, F them, you’re stronger than them. We’ve got this. Now, the funny thing is that CNN never apologized. They never retracted anything. And now years later, CNN, MSNOW and the other left leaning outlets, they’re doing the exact same thing, constantly talking about you being underwater with favorability numbers. Mr. President, what do you say to these people who keep bringing up polls when you’re not even running for office again? What’s the point? PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: And I think that we’re doing really well in the polls, the real polls. If I were running today, I think I’d win by 25 points. I think we’d win by a lot. The economy has never been stronger. We’re doing numbers that nobody’s ever seen before. You take a look at what’s going on with Venezuela. It was a one day deal. It was actually a 48 minute deal. We had, uh, it was an attack where we took a truly bad person out of the country, including the wife, out of the country and now standing trial. This was a very evil man. And the country, we are involved very much with the country, taking out millions and millions of barrels of oil. And that goes right into our treasury. We’ve done and the Venezuela was amazing. And now with Iran, they will never have a nuclear weapon. We were controlling, essentially controlling and soon controlling the straits. We’re doing very well with Iran. The press doesn’t like to say that, although a lot of the press does say it, you know, because the Navy’s gone, the Air Force is gone, the leadership is gone. Part of the problem is so many of the leaders are gone. It’s not easy to make a deal. Nobody knows who’s leading. But I think the public sees what we’re doing because Iran can never have a nuclear weapon.
