Michael Savage: Welcome back to the Savage Nation. We are reeling these series of murders in SC. We are asking who's to blame? We are looking for leadership. We have no leadership. We have nowhere to turn. Not on Republican has shown up. The first that things to be done is the President should have said don’t go into SC and start a riot. I have someone on the phone who I would vote for in a heartbeat that is Donald Trump. Thank you for being on the Savage nation on this sad day. Thank you for being with us.

Donald Trump: Hello Michael.

MS: It is a sad day isn’t it. 9 people executed in a church.

DT: By a maniac. Sick demented person. Very sad thing Michael.

MS: People have called the show since you announced how do you know he’s real and not going to throw a Ross Perot?

DT: First of all I am real. I think the reason I do well is because I think I am a nice person. I like giving to charity. A lot of people don’t think I am going to give up my live to do this. We have to make America great again. I am serious about this. I don’t know if the President is good or bad. I don’t know what he is doing. The Iran deal is a disaster. Other countries are beating us in trade. If I am President that isn’t going to happen.

MS: Would you consider running on a third party ticket?

DT: I am not writing anything off. I am running as a Republican. I am a republican. I am a conservative.

MS: I said he’s running as a republican he’s not going to split the ticket.

DT: I am running as a republican. I don’t like all of theses people. It’s not that I don’t like these people it’s that I don’t respect some of these people. Some of them are too incompetent to run.

MS: Donald you know that the best and the brightest generally don’t go into politics. You are the exception. You and I agree there should be tariffs on Chinese good.

DT: Yes, they are tariffing our goods and we talk about free trade. I love free trade. China is not a free trader. They are killing us. We think they are so wonderful. They put out a statement that said Mr. Trump is wrong. We have a wonderful partnership with the US. I love it too when we have stupid partners who don’t know what they are doing.

MS: Like the battery maker A123 systems which was giving 133 million in incentives and then they went bankrupt. They then were bought by a Chinese company and are not going to pay back the federal government. What a deal they got hey Donald?

DT: We are incompetent. The people we have. We have great people. I could put people in part of China and they wouldn’t stand a chance. How many chances do see a Chevy in Japan. Ford said they are going to move to Mexico and not pay tax.

6:10

MS: They were hoping you were broke.

DT: It turned out to be 9 billion and very little debt. They were shocked. I am not trying to brag, but I know what I am doing. If we making cars in Mexico we aren’t making cars here.

MS: When you announced this week I saw these little men and women trying to tear you apart. Who would you consider for VP

DT: The hatred this guy had. He hits me. He was very upset about it. That’s the way these guys.

MS: George Will no one reads him. Would you be willing to consider Ben Carson as VP?

DT: To soon. He’s a nice person. He’s a surgeon it’s different. He doesn’t have the experience to run something like that.

MS: You are saying we need someone with a killer instinct like you?

DT: We need a killer whose smart. Not a killer. I know a lot of killers.

MS: I know, I say that in a sports context. I was told since I was a child that a guy with the killer instinct usually wins.

DT: I watch these guys and these pundits. Many of them are good and many are bad. I built a tremendous company. I have some of the greatest assets in the world. Art of the Deal is about the number one selling book of all time. It’s now 14 seasons of the Apprentice. It was one of the biggest successes. I read I shouldn’t be on the same stage as a Gov who is nothing. You go to the best college and you do great and all of a sudden you can’t be on that stage.

11:45

MS: I was shocked at the writer at the National review who called your father a slumlord. I happen to know your father built some of the finest middle class apartment buildings in NY Brooklyn and Queens. I had family who lived in them.

DT: In my opinion I think the National Review is going out of business. I think it is doing very badly. WIlliam F. Buckley must be spinning in his grave. I never went bankrupt, but they always love to say it.

MS: They have attacked me for years. It’s one thing to not like someone. It’s another to lie and call him a slumlord. I took outright offense to that and he wasn’t even my father.

DT: My father was a terrific guy. He built a lot of middle class and lower class building. He told me not to go to Manhattan. He said it wasn’t our league, but I did. Our country is in serious trouble. My theme is to make America great again. We have to take back our jobs from China, and I don’t even mean all of them. If you want to buy a TV. I order TV’s all of the time. They come from South Korea although SONY is is Japan. I understand where they come from. Wouldn’t it be nice if we made TV’s When South Korea has a problem with North Korea we send our ships and we get nothing.

MS: We don’t even get a jar of kimchee.

15:00

DT: Saudi Arabia makes a billion dollars a day. I predicted the war in Iraq.

MS: Could you stay with us until the top of the hour?

DT: I can for you.

MS: I want him to conclude with what he wants to say.

DT: Mike it is great to be with you. I am serious about doing this. I am giving up a lot to do this. These politicians don’t give up anything. I’ll do it and they understand I’ll do it.

MS: Thank you so much and I hope you do run.
