## Transcript

We had tremendous success on The Apprentice, and when I ran for president, I had to leave the show. That's when I knew for sure I was doing it, and they hired a big, big movie star, Arnold Schwarzenegger, to take my place, and we know how that turned out. The ratings went right down the tubes. It's been a total disaster, and Mark will never, ever bet against Trump again. And I wanna just pray for Arnold if we can for those ratings, okay? When you hear about the tough phone calls I'm having, don't worry about it. Just don't worry about it. They're tough. We have to be tough. It's time we're gonna be a little tough folks.

We're taken advantage of by every other nation in the world virtually. It's not gonna happen anymore. Freedom if religion is a sacred right, but it also, right, under threat all around us, and the world is under serious, serious Threat in so many different ways, and I've never seen it, so much and so openly as since I took the position of president. The world is in trouble. but we're gonna straighten it out. Thank you as well to Senate Chaplain Barry Black for his moving words, and I don't know, Chaplain, whether that's an appointed position. Is that an appointed position? I don't even know if you're Democrat or if you're Republican, but I'm appointing you for another year.

To Hell with it. We want people to love us and to love our values, not to hate use and to hate our values.
