Trump Announces Space Command HQ Moving To Huntsville, AL; Trump Takes Questions In Oval Office. Aired 3-3:30p ET

Aired September 02, 2025 - 15:00   ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

KRISTEN HOLMES, CNN SENIOR WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENT: Then Biden reversed the decision saying they would keep the headquarters in Colorado. Now President Trump is saying they're moving them down to Alabama. The striking part of all of this is that President Trump essentially just said that one of the big reasons that they were moving the headquarters of U.S. Space Command from Colorado to Alabama was because of mail-in voting, saying that this played a role in his determination of this, saying that because Colorado has all mail-in voting and he took issue with that.

Again, it's striking just given that there were questions raised the first time as to why they were moving locations to Alabama. Now President Trump made a joke at one point about the fact that he won the state by a huge margin, saying that didn't play a factor into any of this. But this is the first time as you noted that we've seen President Trump in six days.

And one thing we're watching for and we're seeing him right now talking, he's going to likely take questions and there are a lot of questions that people have, whether it be about National Guard in Chicago, whether it be about sanctions on Russia, something he just addressed moments ago when he did an interview saying that they were considering different options but would not answer on sanctions directly.

He has not taken questions now for six days, so there's a lot to ask the President since we haven't seen him.

BORIS SANCHEZ, CNN HOST: Kristen, thank you. Please stand by as we await this question-and-answer session between the President and reporters in the room.

Jeff, curious to get your perspective on this, over the last six days all Trump did in terms of a public appearance was a sit-down with a conservative Daily Caller and then head to golf. And all that reporters saw was him getting on the SUV, getting off the SUV and a couple pictures that he posted from the golf course that were actually from like a week ago.

Actually, let's go ahead and listen in to the President now, he's taking questions.

DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: Yes. UNIDENTIFIED MALE: ... with this announcement. Can you talk about the

strategic benefits by having Space Force Command headquartered in Huntsville?

TRUMP: Well, it just works because we have so much else there and having a central - you could call it a central command, but it really is a command station. Also, even locationally, where it is and when you think about flying distances, if you can save a half an hour as fast as some of these planes go and things go and even the rockets go, if you can save by having the best location.

So we went out, as you know, to experts and we had four different groups of experts, they all said this was the best location. I also loved it from the standpoint, I know the people of Alabama, they are great people, work hard and there's no games and they're very proud of it. And I would say they fought harder for it than anybody else also. A lot of states, five states really wanted it, but they wanted it more.

And I kid you not when I say that these people, they spoke to me a lot. That's all they wanted to talk about. They didn't want to talk about the weather, they only wanted to talk about moving to this location, moving to Alabama, Huntsville in particular. So we're honored to do it. They really wanted it badly and they got it. Peter?

PETER: President Trump, something completely different, but about a big viral social media trend over the weekend. How did you find out over the weekend that you were dead? Did you see that?

TRUMP: No.

PETER: People didn't see you for a couple days, 1.3 million user engagements as of Saturday morning about your demise.

TRUMP: Really? I didn't see that.

PETER: (INAUDIBLE) ...

TRUMP: You know, I have heard, it's sort of crazy, but last week I did numerous news conferences, all successful. They went very well, like this is going very well. And then I didn't do any for two days and they said there must be something wrong with him. Biden wouldn't do him for months. You wouldn't see him. And nobody ever said there was ever anything wrong with him. And we know he wasn't in the greatest of shape.

No, I heard that, I get reports. Now, you knew I did an interview that lasted for about an hour and a half with somebody and everybody saw it. That was on one of your competitors. I did numerous shows and also did a number of truths (ph), long truths (ph). I think pretty poignant truths (ph). Now, I was very active over the weekend. They also knew I went out to visit some people at the club that I own pretty nearby on the Potomac River. And now I've been very active, actually, over the weekend.

I didn't hear that one. That's pretty serious stuff. PETER: (INAUDIBLE) ...

TRUMP: Well, it's fake news. You know, it's just so - it's so fake. That's why the media has so little credibility. I didn't - I knew they were saying, like, is he okay, how is he feeling, what's wrong. I said I just left - and it's also sort of a longer weekend, you know? It's Labor Day weekend. So, I would say a lot of people know I was very active this Labor Day. I had heard that, but I didn't hear to that extent. Go ahead, Peter.

PETER: It's something else. You know that this country has a huge problem with school shootings. You've said that you're open to sending the National Guard pretty much anywhere. Would you ever consider sending an armed National Guardsman to every school?

TRUMP: Well, we have a big problem with school shooting, but we also have thousands and thousands of schools that run perfectly.

[15:05:03]

You know, they talk about you can do things construction-wise and that's really - I think nobody knows more about construction than me. You can build the construction doors. You can build what they call safety doors with a lock on the outside, the inside and every place else. Well, but if one of these lunatics happens to get through, then the police can't get in. Then they're looking for keys all over the place. And it takes - a lot of disadvantages to doing - and you're spending billions and billions of dollars and actually making it safer in some way for some of these lunatics that we're dealing with.

But I don't think so. You know, I've thrown out the concept. We have great teachers that love our children. The parents love the children. Teachers love the children, too. And if you took a small percentage of those teachers that were in the military, that were distinguished in the military, that were in the National Guard, et cetera, et cetera, and you let them carry, that's something that a lot of people like. I sort of liked it. It'd have to have to be studied. But they're trained. They've - they know about weapons. You can't do it with every teacher because most teachers don't know and, you know, but I always thought that would be an alternative.

But it just - we've had a lot of instances. Other countries have also. They have different kinds of problems than we have. But we do have - there's something going on - something going on and it's a bad thing. Yes, please.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Have you spoken with President Putin in the past week? Have you spoken with President Putin?

TRUMP: Yes, I don't want to - I have I have learned things that will be very interesting, I think, in the next few days, you'll find out.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: (INAUDIBLE) if there isn't some type of announcement of a meeting with President Putin and President Zelenskyy.

TRUMP: Yes. Yes, there will.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: And what could those consequences be?

TRUMP: We're going to see what happens. We're going to see what they do and what happens. I'm watching it very closely. Last week, they lost 7,000 between the two countries, 7,313 soldiers, to be somewhat exact, for no reason whatsoever. And they're Russian and they're Ukrainian but, you know, they're soldiers. I want to see it end. Yes.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Mr. President, have you decided you're definitely going to send National Guard troops to Chicago.

TRUMP: I didn't say when. But the answer is - look, Chicago is very interesting because I watch J.B. Pritzker get up and say about we don't need help. We're safe. But two weeks ago, they had six people murdered - murdered and they had 24 people hit by bullets. Last week, as you know, with seven people, 24 people hit and seven people died.

And then, over the last two days, it was the - that was the crown jewel. They had, I guess, nine killed, nine or ten killed and 50 hit with bullets. And you have this governor get up, who's a terrible governor. Probably he and Gavin Newsom would be probably the two worst and most naive. They're naive - either they're naive or they're very untruthful. And he'll say, we don't want any protection. We don't need.

So in the last three weeks, he's lost almost 20 people killed. There's no place in the world, including you can go to Afghanistan, you can go to places that you would think of, they don't even come close to this. Chicago is a hellhole right now. Baltimore is a hellhole right now. Parts of Los Angeles are terrible if we didn't put out the fires. And I mean, the other fires, the bullet fires, they didn't do a good job with it. They should have had the water coming down like I said.

You know, we had to release the water. We had to go in and release the water to L.A. It's so badly run. But if we didn't get - if I didn't send the National Guard into Los Angeles, you wouldn't - I would be making an announcement today, I'd be talking about Huntsville. And I'd simultaneously be saying, by the way, the Olympics is not coming to Los Angeles. If we didn't do that - if we didn't do that and even the sheriff, the top law enforcement person in Los Angeles said we could not have handled it without them. So that's what he said.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: (INAUDIBLE) about Chicago though?

TRUMP: Well, we're going in. I didn't say when we're going in. When you lose - look, I have an obligation. This isn't a political thing. I have an obligation. When we lose - when 20 people are killed over the last two and a half weeks and 75 are shot with bullets, so let me tell you a little story about a place called D.C. District of Columbia, right here where we are. It's now a safe zone.

We have no crime. We have - it's in such great shape. You can go and actually walk with your children, your wife, your husband. You can walk right down the middle of the street. You're not going to be shot, Peter. You're safe. Everyone likes you anyway. They probably wouldn't do it.

[15:10:00]

But it's so dangerous. And there are people in this audience that have suffered greatly. There are people in this audience that have been mugged and hurt badly. And they don't want to talk about it. Maybe you were very brave in talking about it. You made quite an impression in a lot of people. I appreciate it. But there were other people in this room that got - have been hurt very badly, just walking down the street in D.C.

Washington, D.C., is a safe zone right now. It's a safe city. The restaurants are open. They're booming. You can't get a restaurant. New restaurants are announcing that they're going to be open. This took place in 12 days. Now, it's 15 days, but three days ago, it became what's known as a safe zone, as a safe city. And this city was really bad, really, really bad. We took 1,600 people out, hardcore criminals that will not be coming back anytime soon. And we're very proud of it, you know, to have our nation's capital lose - every week, you know, it was like years, many years, where every single week somebody was killed for many - many, many consecutive weeks. This went on for years.

And then, we had, last week it was announced that nobody was killed last week. And I made that announcement in front of a very distinguished leader of a country. And I'm saying proudly, ladies and gentlemen, nobody was killed in Washington, D.C. this week. He looked at me like, what's that all about? I said, yes, we have a little bit of a crime problem, and we don't have a crime problem in Washington anymore.

And the mayor has been very helpful, and the police commissioner has been very helpful. And it's been a great team. And I would love to have Gov. Pritzker call me, I'd gain respect for him, and say, we do have a problem. And we'd love you to send in the troops, because you know what? The people, they have to be protected.

I saw today on one of your networks, not a friendly network, really the opposite, I would say, very unfriendly network. And they interviewed about 12 people on this morning. Most of them were African American, they were black. And they were saying, please, please, please let the President send in - these were people from Chicago - please, we need help. We need help. We can't walk outside, we're petrified.

If the governor of Illinois would call up - call me up. I would love to do it. Now, we're going to do it anyway. We have the right to do it, because I have an obligation to protect this country. And that includes Baltimore. I saw where Gov. Moore was asking me to take a walk down the street of Baltimore.

Well, Baltimore is a very unsafe place. It's rated number four in the city. One of the worst - one of the most unsafe places anywhere in the world. But, you know, we took care - this was a beautiful thing that happened in Washington, because we showed that it could be done. And this wasn't just sending big, strong guys. And they are big, and they are strong.

You know, we had a great decision from the Supreme Court that had to do with sort of talent. It had to do with - you are put down based on merit. We - you can hire based on merit. So, merit for a soldier or for a policeman is strong, physically fit, having a certain ability. Not a person that is woke and got the job through woke, but wasn't strong enough to lift a gun out of the holster, et cetera, et cetera.

Now, I looked at the police. As you know, last week, I went over. We had a meeting with, there had to be 300 people, and they were all very impressive looking. And when the bad guys see them, they're not going to do a thing. And so I'm very proud of Washington. It serves as a template. And we're going to do it elsewhere.

But Chicago is certainly going to be high. I would love to have him call. I would love the governor of Illinois. I'd be honored to take his call. All he has to do is say, sir, we need help. It's out of control. And everyone knows it is. He's not kidding anyone. I would love to have - I would say, Gov. Moore call, because I watched him over the weekend trying to explain that Baltimore, what they need is housing. No, they don't need housing. They need to get rid of the criminals. These are hardcore criminal.

We took many people off the streets of Washington, D.C. They're hardcore. They're not going to be good. In 10 years, in 20 years, in two years, they're going to be criminals. They're going to be - they were born to be criminals, frankly. They were born to be criminals and they're tough and mean, and they'll cut your throat, and they won't even think about it the next day. They won't even remember that they did it. And we're not going to have those people.

Washington, D.C. is now a safe zone. It's a safe place. And you can walk - Katie (ph), you can walk right down the street with, by the way, one of the biggest human beings I've ever seen, which is her husband.

[15:15:03]

He was a football player for like 11 years in the NFL. He's a big person.

But big doesn't mean anything when they have guns and when they have knives and everything else that they have, right? But you can walk right down the street, even by yourself, and you're totally safe. Washington, D.C. is a great thing. Yes, ma'am, please.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Mr. President, as you're calling on Democratic leaders across the country to work with you on crime, do you see your efforts here in D.C., including, for example, working with Mayor Bowser here as a model for bringing more bipartisanship in matters not only with crime, but also issues that matter to everyday American people's lives?

TRUMP: So, Mayor Bowser has been great. She could have taken the thing well, and then after I clean it up, they'll take credit for it. You know what they do is they take credit. Like, we cleaned up Los Angeles. We did a great job there. And it was overwhelming what was going on.

And again, the police chief made a statement that we could not have done - there's no way they could handle it. You saw what was happening out there. It was going to be a disaster. We stopped it cold. If we didn't do that, it would have been a very sad day.

And, you know, remember, we have the Olympics, we have the World Cup, we have all these things coming, and we have 250, all of these things coming. But I watched Newsom get up and say, he's doing a great - he's not - we're the ones that did it. And that's okay. Whatever it takes. But the main thing is we're - but he got up and said, we did it.

Well, he didn't want us there and he's going to need us again, because it's starting to form again. I see it. It's starting to form again. You know, we have to maintain. It's like maintenance on an airplane. You can buy it, but you have to maintain it. And if you don't maintain it, a good plane becomes very unsafe very quickly.

So, it's an honor to do it. It's - a lot of presidents wouldn't do what I'm doing. I don't need this heat. But when I watched television last night, and I'm watching the news, and I see that nine people were killed in Chicago, and 54 were badly wounded with bullets, I say, that's not this country. We have to do something. And I do say this - I say this very much. I'm not speaking to anybody but them right now. I would love to receive calls from governors and mayors saying they need help. We'll help them. We have a lot of people. We have a great force. We have a great military force.

You know, Pete will tell you that when I was running for office, when - and this was a big headline, I think, you know, probably got me a couple of votes - but you couldn't sign people in the military. Nobody wanted to join the military, the Army, Air Force, any - the Navy, Marines, Space Force, Coast Guard. We never forget Coast Guard because they've done such a great job - never.

But nobody wanted to join any of them. We were way below what we wanted. Every single one. The closest was the Marines, whatever that is. You'll explain that to me. But the closest was the Marines. But every service was way down, way down.

And then, I got elected, and our country is the hottest country anywhere in the world right now. Everybody is talking about the USA. They're talking about the job that we're doing - everybody. We have the best economy. We have a very, very important decision being made by the Supreme Court because our country is the richest, the strongest, the most powerful. But if, for some reason, some liberal court - I'm talking about the court that just ruled - where even an Obama judge voted in favor of us, which I gave him a compliment yesterday, as you know. I said, that took great courage.

But it's a liberal court, and it's going up to the Supreme Court, who I think have been incredible people. I think they've made very wise decisions. But the tariff question - because without the tariffs, this country is in serious, serious trouble. We've taken in almost $17 trillion of investment is coming in. Most of it has come in because of tariffs. And if, for some reason, somebody wanted to be politically correct - I actually think it's unpolitically correct. I think politically correct is to approve it because there's nothing so popular as what's happened to our country.

Our country is doing so well. But we had a liberal court gave us a very shocking ruling, and that ruling is basically saying that the trillions of dollars that are being - that pouring into our country - putting us in a position like no country is anywhere in the world - that they'd like to see us - that take it away.

By the way, a lot of the people behind that lawsuit - that particular - are from foreign countries. I might add.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There's a video that is circulating online now, of the White House, where a window is open to the residents upstairs, and somebody has thrown a big bag out the window. Have you seen this?

TRUMP: No, that's probably A.I. generator.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So --

TRUMP: Actually, you can't open the windows. You know why? They're all heavily armored and bulletproof.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So that's a fake video?

[15:20:00]

TRUM: Well, it's got to be because I know every window up there. The last place I'd be doing it is that because there's cameras all over the place, right? Including yours. No, but every window - - I've never seen a window that's - in fact, my wife was complaining about it the other day. She said, I'd love to have a little fresh air come in, but you can't. They're bulletproof. And, number one, they're sealed. And, number two, each window weighs about 600 pounds. You have to be pretty strong to open them up. No, that has to be - where was the window? Let me see.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Maybe for the renovations.

TRUMP: Which is the window?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It looks like this is on the 15th Street side, I think.

TRUMP: Yes.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So, right here.

TRUMP: Yes, those windows are sealed. Those windows are all - they're all sealed. You can't open them.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: (INAUDIBLE) regarding the federal (INAUDIBLE) ... TRUMP: It's the kind of thing they do. And one of the problems we have

with A.I. - it's both good and bad. If something happens really bad, just blame A.I. But also, they create things, you know, it works both ways. If something happens that's really bad, maybe I'll have to just blame A.I. But there's truth to it, because I see so many phony things. I saw something as I was growing up, from the time I was a baby until now. I said, who did that? It was A.I.-generated. So, it's a little bit scary, to be honest with you. But those windows are all very heavily sealed.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Thank you, Mr. President.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Can I follow up with what you were saying regarding that federal appellate court that ruled against you and your administration as it relates to Europe ...

TRUMP: Well, they ruled against our country, the court. And they ruled against us before. It's a very liberal court.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: You called it highly partisan in your opinion.

TRUMP: Well, it certainly is. It certainly is.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: And, in fact, it was along ideological lines, seven to four.

TRUMP: Well, except that we actually got one of the Obama judges that was appointed by President Obama voted in favor of the tariffs because he felt it was imperative for our country to thrive and survive, even. And I gave him credit. I said, you know what? That took a lot of courage for him to do it because you don't see that often.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: So, my question is, I imagine, I suspect you're going to appeal that all the way to the Supreme Court.

TRUMP: Well, we already have. Yes. In fact, we're doing something else. We're going to be going to the Supreme Court. We think, tomorrow because we need an early decision. I mean, look, the financial fabric of our country, we're a rich, incredible country right now. And we're able to, you know, other countries use tariffs on us for years, and we never did. And I did a lot during my first term, but then we had COVID and we had to focus on other things. You couldn't be tariffing Italy, Spain, France as they were dying by the thousands and millions. But we did with China, and China paid us billions and billions of dollars.

And I started the process, but then I had to end it a little bit because of COVID. So we focused on that. But, no, it's a very important decision. And, frankly, if they make the wrong decision, it would be a devastation for our country. We've taken in trillions of dollars. And, by the way, all these countries signed agreements, as an example. They signed - they're all happy. Everybody is happy.

But some whack job put in a lawsuit. It went before a very liberal court, and the liberal court ruled. It was 11 - they ruled seven to four, with one of the most liberal of them all voting in our favor because they're patriots. I think - I give tremendous credit to that judge. And now it's going to the Supreme Court.

Now, we're going to be asking for early admittance. We're going tomorrow, and we're going to ask for expedited and expedited ruling. Because, you know, when you look at the stock markets down today, the stock market is down because of that. Because the stock market needs the tariffs. They want the tariffs.

If you look at A.I., all of those, you know, all of that money that's going to be invested, trillions and trillions of dollars. The biggest thing, bigger than the Internet, I suspect. It's the Internet plus three or four other things combined. We are leading very substantially with AI. We're leading because of tariffs. We're leading because of talent, and this is where they'd like to be. But without the tariffs, we wouldn't have a chance because we wouldn't be able to protect those investments of the companies coming in.

So, if you took away tariffs, we could end up being a third-world country. That's how big the ruling. So, we're asking for an expedited ruling.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Mr. President, as a backstop to that precedent (ph), you have a Republican-controlled Congress. You control the House. You control the Senate.

TRUMP: Yes, but we don't have 60 votes. We don't have 60 votes. I'd love to do that. Oh, if we had 60 senators, if we got the 60 votes, we would get them. But we need 60 votes, and we need, you know, a certain number in the House. We'd get - I think we'd get - I don't know, we have about five of them here. Would everybody agree with me on tariffs?

[15:25:00]

We have taken in so much money. And here's the thing, we signed a deal with Japan. They're paying us hundreds of billions of dollars. We signed a deal with South Korea. We signed a deal with the European Union. We signed a deal with Europe. And those countries are paying us $950 billion. And they're happy about it. They're okay.

As one of them said, it's amazing that we got away with it so long. One of my friends, a leader of one of the countries, and they're fine with it. They all signed. If that ruling ever went against us, I guess we'd have to give back hundreds of billions. We would have to give trillions and trillions of dollars back to countries that have been ripping us off for the last 35 years. And I can't imagine it happening on a legal basis. They have no legal basis whatsoever. But on a common-sense basis, it would destroy America.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: (INAUDIBLE) the sky on Sunday, the satellite signal (INAUDIBLE) ... TRUMP: With Ursula?

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: (INAUDIBLE) ...

TRUMP: No, she had an interesting opponent. She's a tremendous woman. And so, what are you asking me about her?

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: NATO is concerned about (INAUDIBLE) ...

TRUMP: (INAUDIBLE) NATO is concerned about it. Well, nobody knows where it came from, but they did take away her ability to use a phone, you know? Sometimes that's a good thing. Sometimes that could happen to me. I'd be very happy.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: And are you considering reducing the tariffs on India from 50 percent?

TRUMP: What does that mean?

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Are you considering taking away some of the tariffs that you've imposed on India that you had posted ...

TRUMP: No, we get along with India very well. But India has, you have to understand, for many years, it was a one-sided relationship. Only now, since I came along, and because of the power that we have with tariffs, India was charging us tremendous tariffs, about the highest in the world. They were about the highest in the world, number one. And we, therefore, weren't doing much business with India, but they were doing business with us because we weren't charging them, foolishly. We weren't charging them.

So they would send in massive, you know, everything they made, they'd send it in, pour it into our country. Therefore, it wouldn't be made here, you know, which is a negative. But we would not send in anything because they were charging us a hundred percent tariffs. And, you know, I'll give you an example, Harley-Davidson.

Harley-Davidson couldn't sell into India. There was a 200 percent tariff on a motorcycle. So what happens? Harley-Davidson went to India and built a motorcycle plant. And now they don't have to pay tariffs. Same thing as us.

So, what we're doing is literally thousands of companies are coming into the U.S.: Car companies, A.I., but, you know, more traditionally, car companies. We have so many car company factories under construction or being designed right now. And they're coming from China. They're coming from Mexico, I must tell you. And they're coming from Canada. A lot of them coming from Canada. But they're coming into our country because they want to build here. And they want to build here for two reasons.

Number one, they'd like to be here. And number two, the tariffs are protecting them. And number three, they want to avoid paying tariffs. When they build their cars here, they don't have any tariffs to pay. You know, when you build here, you don't have any tariffs.

(CROSSTALK)

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Mr. President?

TRUMP: Go ahead.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: In light of the Minnesota shooting last week, the Department of Homeland Security is now awarding more than a hundred million to hundreds of faith organizations across the country to help them ramp up security. Was your vision for further protecting religious liberty across the country amid incidents of threats (INAUDIBLE) ...

TRUMP: So, religious liberty is so important and there's - we're talking about every religion now. And we're doing things on that that nobody else has ever done. And we're going to be announcing, we're going to be having a big announcement in about two weeks on that question. Yes, please.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: On the Space Committee, sir, are you concerned that people may not be willing to relocate from Colorado to Alabama?

TRUMP: No. I'm not worried. We'll get somebody else.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Colorado is ...

TRUMP: I mean, the problem with Colorado is they have a very corrupt voting system. They - look, I have so many friends in Colorado. Anytime you have mail-in voting, you have corrupt elections - very simple. It's very simple. Even Jimmy Carter said it with his commission. They set up a commission with him and Scoop Jackson and some people, highly regarded people. And they said the one thing - the finding was if you have mail-in voting, you will have corrupt elections.

Well, the - your radical left governor decided that he was going to have all mail-in voting in Colorado. Once you have all mail-in voting, and for whatever reason, the Democrats cheat and they cheat like, you know, they're not stupid. That's the only thing. They're no good on policy.
