RE: Donald Trump on Charly Butcher Morning Show

_________________________________________________________

Event Details: Leading GOP Candidate for the White House, Donald J. Trump joined Charly Butcher on “Fort Wayne’s Morning News” to talk about his bid for the White House. Link: http://www.wowo.com/donald-j-trump-joins-charly-butcher-fort-waynes-morning-news/

Attendees/Audience: Indiana talk show listeners

Press: N/A

Summary of Event: Flags: Trump thinks Sanders supporters will come over to him, and that he’ll get a lot of crossover voters - enough to win New York and Michigan in a general election. Trump also seems to think that the US Air Force trains in Annapolis (that would be the Naval Academy). Trump thinks that taunting is against the “Geneva convention,” and that eventually, we’ll have to shoot down Russian planes that taunt us.

Key Points:

00:01

Butcher: Let’s get straight to this… we’re being joined by Donald Trump - good morning sir.

00:10

Trump: Good morning

00:11

Butcher: Can I tell you, I’ve been to rock concerts that didn’t have the energy that the crowd you had?

0:19

Trump: -coyly- Wellll, that’s good, that’s good. We have great energy. You know, we were in Ft. Wayne yesterday among many other places, and that was an amazing crowd we had, wasn’t it? I hope you enjoyed it.

00:31

Butcher: You play the Rolling Stones louder than the Rolling Stones do… So we have had a lot of analysis on your road of victory - millennials will have a role to play in that, veterans have a role to play… There’s a lot of different backgrounds that are coming around Donald Trump. In particular, what do you have to say to millennials and to veterans?

00:59

Trump: The millennials are amazing… are crowds are going crazy, thousands of people get stuck outside… We were in Los Angeles not long ago, and we had 31,000 and 40,000 people at our events, and the crowds are so young… Even when I’m speaking, I’m saying, wow these people are really young… You know, it’s about jobs - it’s about the message. The millennials haven’t seen the horrors of when you’re not strong… You look at what’s going on with the colleges - the tremendous cost increases and their debt and they can’t get good jobs when they graduate… I’m not surprised any more, because the people are so young and enthusiastic. I actually think we’re going to get a lot of the Bernie Sanders young people joining because they - it’s about - they hate the trade deals and they want jobs… so it has been a really young audience.

02:43

Butcher: In this part of the state - and in Indiana you have to declare - it’s interesting to note that there is a fair number of young people that are deciding they will publicly declare that they are a part of their fathers’ party. Which, you know, is different here in the state of Indiana.

02:59

Trump: Which is pretty great… In NY, which was a big victory - you have to be a Republican to vote… -talks about how so many people who are Democrats and independents were trying to come in to vote for Trump and couldn’t-... We’re going to have a big cross over vote and that’s going to be big for Republicans… The Republican path to victory is much harder than for Democrats, as you know… I’m going to pick up states like NY… And I think we’ll win Michigan and other states that no other Republican will even campaign in, and I’m going to win them. And that gives you a big, big margin for victory… We’re having an amazing time in Indiana with Bobby Knight.

04:17

Butcher: Yeah, I have friends who are in the steel industry - and you were talking about the steel industry and the Chinese system - this actually could go to part of what you’re talking about when you called our system crooked and rigged, is some of our international trade.

04:34

Trump: Yeah, well - it’s true. And you know, a lot of things are rigged. The voter system is rigged… If I wasn’t winning by as much, a normal campaign could never survive. It’s all rigged by the special interests and the party bosses… I’ll tell you, I’ve never seen anything like it. When you win Arizona by massive amounts - it’s a total landslide - and then you have to fight for voting rights of the places you’ve won… And the Democrats have it too, with supers, they’re doing it to Sanders, that’s his problem… But this Republican Party stuff is a disgrace, but the good news is we’re winning by a lot so we’re going to win. Now they’re all predicting that we’re winning… But you know, the whole system - and you said it perhaps even better than I can, it’s rigged - it’s hurting children, it’s hurting people who want to get an education… The colleges aren’t watching their costs because they’re getting the federal money and the kids are getting actually killed because they’re taking on so much debt and then they can’t get a job… So you know, tough stuff.

06:13

Butcher: Well, I’ve got millennials who are deep in debt too, so I hear you… Can I run this headline by you and get some thoughts on that Russian SU-27 that did a barrel-roll Friday over the US Air Force RC-135? If a guy takes a swing at me enough times in the bar, at some point I at least block the punch. Tell me about that news story.

06:36

Trump: Well, I think it’s terrible - I mean I watched it. And it just shows how low we’ve gone, where they can toy with us like that… They work all their lives, they go to Annapolis and they do their job, but all of their lives they’re working… They get taunted like this, and really that’s a lack of respect… Now normally, an Obama, let’s say a president - you want to make a call or two, right? Normally Obama would call up Putin and say listen, do us a favor - don’t do that, get that maniac - just stop it. But we don’t have that kind of a president - he’s going to be off playing golf or something. I mean, you can’t take it. At a certain point, you just have to do something - you just can’t take that… That is not right - it’s against all - you know, when you talk about Geneva convention, there’s got to be things that are against it - you can’t do that, that’s called taunting. But it should certainly start with diplomacy, and it should start quickly with a phone call to Putin, wouldn’t you think? And if that doesn’t work out - I don’t know, you know at a certain point when that sucker comes by, you’re going to shoot - you’re going to shoot, I mean, you’re going to shoot… And, uh, it’s a shame. It’s a total lack of respect for our country, and a total lack of respect for Obama, which as you know they don’t respect.
