MARK LEVIN INTERVIEWS DONALD TRUMP - SPEAKS TO THE ISSUES Discusses IRS and the tax system, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Sanctuary cities, Veterans Affairs - veterans care, longest wait times still. Going into Iraq was on a false premise, knocking out Iraq created a false balance. Metentions China on several issues, we owe China $1.4 trillion. Israel is in deep trouble, the Iran deal - it is great to have a deal but not the deal we have, the prisoners should have been included. 1st thing I would have done, on the Iran Deal, fellows give us the prisoners. What does conservative mean. In this world, socially conservative, pro-life, guard money, guard wealth. We must get our house back in order. Our country is not respected, we are being ripped off left and right. Mentions Ted Cruz and what a great job he is doing in the senate. 0:00 donald Trump how are you sir are you doing I'm doing very very well you know 0:05 people keep saying where is donald Trump stand on the issues and I say to myself 0:09 why the hell would she ask it's not so hard to do 0:13 no I mean all I gotta hear about all this static and everything out so I just 0:17 want to ask you and you answer as you wish 0:20 federal income taxes 0:23 well we're going to cut taxes we pay the highest taxes anywhere in the world you 0:28 know they used to say this number two it's not number two was never never to 0:31 me for years we've paid number one so we've gotta cut it down and you know the 0:35 other thing we have to do more 0:36 his simplify its so complicated I had sort of an expression a little wiseguy 0:41 expression 0:42 H&R Block out of business when you have people making not so much and they go to 0:47 H&R Block and they give a big check its ridiculous so we have to simplify and we 0:51 have to cut would you do a flat rate you know regular I think had to rate 28% in 0:57 15 something on my memory I don't remember is that what you're thinking 1:01 about you can do that you can do you know this so many the FairTax the flat 1:05 tax and you could leave it the way it is simplified get rid of a lot of the bed 1:09 deductions and lower the tax and make it easier because I'll tell you what you 1:13 know look I have a very complex return but I i spend millions of dollars on 1:17 lawyers and accountants and you know they they need an IQ of about 185 just 1:22 to figure it all out and so does everybody so it has to be simplified it 1:26 has to be reduced by a pit the Environmental Protection Agency is 1:31 spinning out these massive regulations closing down coal mines closing down 1:36 public utilities obama said he wants to drive up the cost of electricity would 1:41 you rescind most of these things and then take a look at it as you have clean 1:45 coal now they have amazing operations for 29 coal and I'm not saying it's as 1:50 good as natural gas in the sense that it is actually more expensive but but you 1:54 have that you know where we spend much of our coal to China we have a planet 1:59 and whether it comes out of los Angeles or New York or whether it comes out of 2:03 China when you get up way up in the attack of the matter that much you 2:06 understand we're sending their coal to China they don't even want to do that 2:11 but that's 2:12 is using the Cobell take anything in a china will take anything so we have to 2:17 really do better you know the pipeline should be built I hope we don't need the 2:22 pipeline because it comes out of it comes out of canada but we have to get 2:27 the pipeline done it so many things we could do if we get rid of a lot of the 2:31 environmental things and also that can also be largely a state's situation 2:37 States won everything there you know to me it's clean air it's really the abort 2:41 the system there cuz you go to some countries and it's so dirty and we clean 2:46 our air we do all sorts of things other places down and it's not fair I will say 2:50 this we're huge disadvantage in so many ways but what he said the other day as I 2:55 don't know if it's almost like a death wish you know the EPA seems to be at war 3:00 with our industrial heartland I mean this used to be the working-class base 3:05 of the democratic party leader now the reagan democrats would you try and win 3:09 them over I think I could win them over and I feel strongly about it i think i 3:13 win them over I think I'm going to win the hispanics of you probably saw a poll 3:16 that came out recently market Nevada to state of Nevada it was hispanics and i 3:22 won the state but a couple 33 34 percent to the state which is a great number and 3:28 i won that Hispanics with even more so everyone was sort of surprised but they 3:33 know I create jobs and that's what they want they want you so we're doing great 3:37 with hispanic girl after that first week where I was hit hard because I was 3:41 misquoted and you know they took one quarter of a cent said they'd leave the 3:45 rest of the other sets is out but people are now saying that I'm right I was 3:50 right on basically it was illegal immigration 3:52 did you have the killing of Kate and the killing of Jameel and yet so many 3:56 different things came to light and it's dangerous out there I went to the border 4:01 three weeks ago you so that probably and it was it was an amazing experience I 4:07 can tell you that would you shut down these illegal sanctuary city cities and 4:11 yeah I think that terrible I guess it's a way of trying to streamline things but 4:17 what happens is this no coordination and guys like wise guy that came over from 4:24 take a break through the border 4:25 five times he came through the border and then he killed and there's no reason 4:30 and San Francisco who would think so I think I can say that you might not have 4:36 ever heard of sanctuary cities if it wasn't for me cuz nobody was talking 4:39 about illegal immigration that till I brought up the whole thing with mexico 4:43 is sending me remember the famous led mentioned go is said that and you know 4:48 I'm very proud of the fact that I was able to do that and the other thing I 4:51 think I brought up big league you know the vets are absolutely being our vets 4:56 this country are being treated like like third-class citizens and I think I 5:00 brought that up about it clear to something's got to be done about it 5:04 hopefully it's good to be done by because I don't know of anybody else is 5:07 going to be capable of doing and what would you bring in some private 5:10 competition because I think that's what it needs this is this centralized 5:13 stalinist system just ain't cuttin it to work I've got to know so many because 5:17 you know I really have been making the rounds so it's it's a pretty well saying 5:22 that I've got to know so many venture incredible and you see these great you 5:26 know strong people wonderful people 5:29 incredible families and like tears are coming down there as they wait for five 5:33 days sometimes to see a doctor one was telling me wait five days in a waiting 5:38 room think of it look I know you and if you wait 12 minutes you going crazy with 5:42 it out of its case right now would you like to wait five days at the end of the 5:47 fifth day the doctor said I'm sorry I can see I'm going on vacation now and 5:53 he's a people that could be you know fixed up says with a pill or with a 5:57 little a decision and we're not talking about major operations were talking 6:01 about just seeing that doctor to get better with something easy to cure and 6:06 they wait four and five days and as of Wednesday of two weeks ago it was the 6:10 longest wait in the history of the VA so how do we fix this way you did competent 6:16 people we have we have a system that's that's absolutely broke and I agree with 6:20 you you know we have so many people outside of the three in the free market 6:24 that could take such a burden off the VA and idk what some of the people working 6:30 in the VA a terrific people have also got to meet a lot of them 6:34 but the system is broken and the senators and the congressmen and the 6:38 people in Washington Ave dead such a poor job and whether it's senator mccain 6:43 or senator any any one of a memory they've done for so many years have done 6:47 sexually poor job but you can privatize parts of it you can get really quick 6:52 really good care for people but it's it's never been worse but it's it's 6:57 literally now at the all-time worst and the weight as if you probably read this 7:02 as if to assure the longest wait ever had 7:04 howling out the military here we have the rise of red china taking over the 7:10 south and east China Seas hearing of the rise of cute and here we have the 7:16 Islamic terrorists on the move to Calif H going at once we are threatened on 7:22 front you would have thought they got cyber wars gone on and Obama's hollowing 7:26 out the military would you rebuild the military have to you know there's smoke 7:30 there's always been danger in the world the world is pretty teachers place that 7:34 I guess at its best it was dangerous but today we have one additional item that 7:40 you never had that's the power of the weapons I tell you have another one you 7:43 know I used to think medieval times was a very brutal time these two cut off 7:46 people's heads I think you don't do that anymore and then all of a sudden two 7:50 years ago year and a half ago you started seeing with James Foley and 7:53 other people and we say what's this and if you are Christian and in Syria give 8:00 you head cut off I mean they're they're brutal and we have to do something about 8:04 that we have to do something about a lot and I was never big and I shouldn't say 8:09 this year you're that angry at me but I always felt like going into a wreck of a 8:13 let me stop it but you know how I view this interview and we need to have an 8:16 opportunity for a once that tell people what your positions are before they 8:21 attack you go ahead I love that I really appreciate that much but you know I 8:26 always felt that by going into Iraq and of course it was really a false premise 8:30 the weapons of mass destruction but which turned out that to be but you're 8:34 gonna ruin the balance of power because it was always a racket around and they 8:37 were the same strengths are almost like twins would fight and they fight and 8:41 nobody ever one you know you've got ten feet one way 10 feet the other way the 8:44 Picatinny arrest and once we know cataract 8:47 we've ruined the balance and I'm quoted in in eighty 8:51 03 and 04 is don't do it don't do it okay and yet I am deem most military 8:58 stick person I would have the strongest military nobody would mess with us you 9:03 know right now we have a military that is you know needs help 9:07 ok to put it nicely it really needs help and I wanted to do something like let 9:13 them keep fighting just don't ruin the balance and i said i read will take over 9:17 Iraq and Iran which is good enough to take over the oil and you know it's 9:20 taken a lot of the oil additives China after we spent two trillion dollars of 9:24 thousands of lives and wounded warriors who are incredible people wounded 9:29 worries all over the place you go in and you see iraq has taken a lot of the oil 9:33 is China I mean this is what you make it china's economy looks like it's starting 9:38 to collapse 9:39 wow what they doing as you know it's a very managed economy and what they did 9:43 yesterday was incredible where they cut their currency the currency manipulation 9:47 is the greatest the greatest in history and what that is is that sucking sound 9:51 it's taken the money right away from a shadow when they cut their courage the 9:55 biggest cut they've had a two decades and they should not be allowed that's 9:59 not that's like cheating ok that's cheating and when they do that they take 10:04 our money right out of our pockets in terms of this country and you know you 10:08 think of it 10:09 they've taken our money we've rebuilt China we have single-handedly they've 10:13 taken because of a lot of stupid politicians and stupid leaders they take 10:18 our money they take our jobs they take our manufacturing and we owe them right 10:22 now 10:23 1.4 trillion dollars at cellmark think of that they've taken everything and we 10:28 owe them money and we all have a lot of money 1.4 trillion yet so it is 10:32 incredible and it can be solved so easily but Obama has no clue he has no 10:37 idea I mean he comes and they give state dinners to these guys from China and the 10:41 guys from China going back home they say how dumb are they what do you think of 10:47 this array 10:48 Daniel and our friends Israel and well I think israel's in deep trouble I mean I 10:52 think something's gonna have to be done you know one of the things about the 10:56 death look there's so many things about the deal to 24 days and you know the 24 10:59 days doesn't start for a long time because you have to go through the whole 11:02 process before the clock starts ticking right but even a thing like and it's I 11:08 think it's great to have a deal but we should have doubled up the sanctions 11:10 have made the cut a deal you have to have a right not the kind of deal that 11:14 they're doing but one of the things that amazes me is the four prisoners 11:18 principle that should have been brought up at the beginning that at the end but 11:22 the four prisoners you say fellows we want those prisons used to be free you 11:26 know now its board other words this is the world's longest negotiation this 11:30 things been going on for years but when it was three patients said before we 11:35 began you don't wanna we do it's good it's gonna be make us all look good let 11:39 the prison when they are scary why they didn't ask to the president's gary said 11:45 he didn't want to complicate the negotiations think of it he didn't want 11:49 to cut his exact words we didn't want to complicate would you have said you give 11:54 us those prisoners now . 11:56 ok so day one where first of all this is a negotiation that should have taken 12:02 longer than a week what they're doing this topic I do it all the time it's in 12:05 business 12:06 passing this along cap tapped into a lot of bad crap archivist they're doing bad 12:11 things and their well being cast along like a bunch of suckers the first thing 12:15 I would have done that just because it's it's sort of like you know jeb bush and 12:19 about me 12:20 tone his phone he said about my tone with him it's like falling asleep is 12:27 like stuff like sominex so he told the fact is it sets the right tone you go in 12:33 at the beginning at the very very beginning and used officially as well as 12:37 you gotta give us those four guys three guys now focus you gotta give us the 12:42 four guys you gotta give it to us right now it's gonna be great feel great 12:46 friends great for you don't wanna we needed because psychologically looks 12:49 good would you make a better deal if you can I guarantee you if you have if I was 12:53 there they were given as presents very quickly 12:57 what I don't even think we asked for the president's I'm not even sure that we 13:01 can't let me ask you this before we went on a time like this you consider 13:07 yourself conservative what does that mean to you again like I did hear you 13:12 consider yourself a conservative what does that mean to you to be a 13:15 considerable means to me to be in terms of you know you have different types of 13:21 conservatives but different types of world ok in this world it means socially 13:27 conservative pro-life it means strong military it means fiscally conservative 13:33 we want to guard our money we want to go out well we have to have tremendous 13:38 security we have to do things right and we have to live in a very conservative 13:44 wake we have to get our debt back down you know where we're ready to explode as 13:48 a country we are physically ready to explode work had 19 pretty almost 19 13:53 trillion now can you believe it and at 24 trillion as soon as we go up to 24 13:58 2004 that is the that's like that is such a bad signal so we're up to about 14:04 nineteen now we have to get our house back in order another thing but we have 14:10 to rebuild our infrastructure so we need to strengthen military we need social 14:14 strength we need military strength we need all sorts of things I mean our 14:20 country is a mess it's gotta be redone and it's got to be redone fairly fast 14:25 and one other thing we're not respected in the world the world is ripping us off 14:30 left and right whether it's Mexico Japan China every country the world is ripping 14:35 us off left and right and nobody likes us you think actually I did i do you 14:40 think he won't let you express your opinion on these issues it just drives 14:45 me nuts 14:45 everybody that comes on here I ask them questions about their issues you know 14:49 they want to bring up the Rosie O'Donnell is now I'm not betting is what 14:55 I'm saying why don't people let you speak about these 14:59 I was hit with you I started off that debate and the nice part is whether it's 15:04 drugs or time time magazine here they did all these folks that everybody had 15:08 me winning the debate but I can you even the other candidates they came to me 15:13 after the end your friend by the way pictures did a good job you know he's a 15:17 good guy I heard you talking about this Friday two weeks ago and what he had 15:22 that wonderful vote in the Senate and I tell you what he's been he's been a 15:27 regular listener I am oh yeah I listen I was listening out for two weeks ago 15:31 Friday you were talking about Ted Cruz and when he was in the sister and her me 15:35 after the debate I don't want to get into talking about I think you're right 15:39 after the debate in less than a second I'm gonna have to go out because I have 15:44 a hard break so where do you go now to campaign one out tomorrow I'm going to 15:50 do Hampshire and on Saturday I'm going to I owe it to the State Fair what would 15:55 have liked thousands of people and tomorrow night we have an amazing thing 15:59 in new hampshire and you know I'm leading in new hampshire I'm leading a 16:02 leading nationally and so people are less than one of the things I found is 16:07 that the public is really smart they really get it but I was hit up with a 16:12 couple of questions that were not appropriate as they say you know it was 16:17 a little ridiculous but it really worked out great and be safe out there you 16:24 gonna have these black lives matter when all eyes matter but you got people who 16:28 are going to be pulling that kind of stuff so watch out you do absolutely 16:32 I'll be I'll be very careful but will be very stern alright well good luck to you 16:38 and you really do have a great show 16:40 keep it up thank you thank you take care I treat everybody who comes on this 16:45 problem with respect and I ask them questions I hope they can learn a little 16:49 bit more information from donald Trump there I'll tell you what he's engaging 16:53 as hell is indeed mister
