Terry Moran
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.
- [02:17]
Commentator 1
Yeah, there was lots of huffing and puffing in this interview. Terry Moran from ABC actually delivered an incredible pitch perfect interview of Donald Trump and Trump was fumbling and bubbling and just looked like an absolute idiot. This was a one day Trump interview and ABC reporter, I mean stepped up. I want you to watch what went down? Donald Trump claimed that Brego Garcia had MS.13 tattooed on his knuckles with the actual letter M, number 13 letter S. And it was clearly Photoshopped. Like, you can literally look at it. And Donald Trump's like, no, it says Ms. 13. Just watch this.
- [02:58]
Commentator 2
Play it.
- [02:59]
Terry Moran
He wasn't a member of a gang. And then they looked, and on his knuckles he had MS.13.
- [03:05]
Commentator 3
There's a dispute.
- [03:06]
Terry Moran
Wait a minute, wait a minute. He had MS.13 on his knuckle.
- [03:10]
Commentator 3
He had some tattoos that are interpreted that way, but let's move on.
- [03:13]
Terry Moran
Wait a minute. Okay, Terry, Terry, Terry.
- [03:15]
Commentator 3
He did not have the letter MS.13.
- [03:18]
Terry Moran
It says MS.13.
- [03:19]
Commentator 3
That was photoshopped. So let me.
- [03:21]
Terry Moran
That was Photoshop, Terry. You can do that. Hey, they're giving you the big break of a lifetime. You know, you're doing the interview. I picked you because, frankly, I never heard of you. But that's okay. I picked you, Terry, but you're not being very nice. He had ms.13 tattoo.
- [03:36]
Commentator 3
Agree to disagree. I want to move on to something.
- [03:37]
Terry Moran
Terry, do you want me to show you the picture?
- [03:41]
Commentator 3
I saw the picture.
- [03:42]
Terry Moran
Well, you think it was Photoshop?
- [03:44]
Commentator 3
Well, here we go. Here we go.
- [03:44]
Terry Moran
Don't Photoshop it. Go look at his hand. He had MS.13.
- [03:47]
Commentator 3
He did have tattoos that can be interpreted that way. I'm not an expert on them. I want to turn to Ukraine. I want to get to Ukraine.
- [03:53]
Terry Moran
No, no, no, no. He had M. As. As clear as you can be not interpreted. This is why people no longer believe. Well, the news. Because when he was photographed in.
- [04:04]
Commentator 3
In El Salvador. They aren't there, but let's just go. They aren't there when he's in the.
- [04:10]
Terry Moran
Photograph there now, right? No, but they're in your picture, Terry.
- [04:13]
Commentator 3
Ukraine, sir.
- [04:14]
Terry Moran
He's got MS.13 on his knuckles. All right, okay, we'll take a look. It's. You do such a disservice. We'll take a look. Why don't you just say, yes, he does, and, you know, go on to something else.
- [04:25]
Commentator 3
It's contested.
- [04:26]
Commentator 1
Next up, Donald Trump lies and claims that tourism is way up and it's going so good when we all know that tourism is crashing again. It's just the most easy thing to prove as a lie. But hear Donald Trump saying that things are great and it's going to get better.
- [04:42]
Commentator 2
Play this clip.
- [04:43]
Commentator 3
And Canadians, many of them are really angry, furious about your talk about, we're going to take over. Canada's going to become the 51st state, and it kind of is of a piece. A lot of travel is down into the United States from around the world. It feels like there's been reputational damage, is doing great.
- [05:03]
Terry Moran
Well, prices are down, not the tour. Gasoline's down, energy's down. Tourism is going to be way up. Wait till you see the numbers. The tourism is way up now. Canada, oh, tourism's doing very well. We're doing very well. We're doing very well. Wait till you see the real numbers come out in about, in six months from now when you see the numbers.
- [05:23]
Commentator 3
But do you think I'm going to ask you, if I may, do you.
- [05:26]
Commentator 1
Think that you literally have a lot of the world boycotting travel and tourism into the United States? Canada's gone elbows up. They ain't showing up here. We know this like there's actual data reflecting of this. Europeans aren't showing up here, Australians aren't. People from across the world, South America, Central America, Mexico, elsewhere really are not trying to come here because they don't want to be put in detention centers if they're tourists or sent to concentration camps and get cavity searched and just put in detention centers for weeks on end. Donald Trump then talks about the suffering that people are feeling right now is what they signed up for. He promised suffering.
- [06:02]
Commentator 2
He says, here, play this clip.
- [06:03]
Commentator 3
Concern out there, people are worried. Even some people who've voted for you saying, I didn't sign up for this. So how do you answer those concerns?
- [06:12]
Terry Moran
Well, they did sign up for it actually. And this is what I campaigned on. I said that we've been abused by other countries at levels that nobody's ever seen before. We were losing 3 to 5 billion dollars a day on trade.
- [06:27]
Commentator 1
Trump then talks about the 145% tariffs on China as a very good thing and that he thinks it's great. So for everyone who keeps saying, oh, we're, we're moving closer to a deal with China, no, we're not. You're just manipulating the markets.
- [06:42]
Commentator 2
Here, play this clip.
- [06:43]
Commentator 3
Secretary said we basically have an embargo on China.
- [06:45]
Terry Moran
Look, you're trying to say something's going to happen.
- [06:47]
Commentator 3
No.
- [06:48]
Terry Moran
Okay, well, nothing's going to happen.
- [06:49]
Commentator 3
You know business.
- [06:50]
Terry Moran
I want to ask you, I do know business.
- [06:52]
Commentator 3
So 145% tariffs on China and that is, that's good, basically an embargo.
- [06:57]
Terry Moran
They deserve it.
- [06:58]
Commentator 3
It'll raise prices on everything from electronics to clothing to building houses.
- [07:03]
Terry Moran
You don't know that. You don't know whether or not China, that's mathematics. China probably will eat those tariffs. But at 145, they basically can't do much business with the United States. And they were making from us a trillion dollars a year. They were ripping us off like nobody's ever ripped us off. And by the way, we have other countries that were just as bad. If you look at the European Union, it was terrible what they've done to us. Every country, almost every country in the world was ripping us off. They're not doing that anymore.
- [07:31]
Commentator 3
I want you to think of.
- [07:32]
Commentator 1
Next up, you have Donald Trump admitting that he weaponizes the doj. Let's play this clip that Biden knew anything about it.
- [07:39]
Commentator 3
Fair enough. But you are the president now. And I'm asking the justification for going after people you don't like.
- [07:46]
Terry Moran
No, no. People that I think are dishonest. It's not that I don't, I don't even know most of them. They're people that.
- [07:52]
Commentator 3
I think these people made you angry.
- [07:54]
Terry Moran
No, it's not anger. These are people that I think are very dishonest. I don't think they're worthy of being able to go into top secret information. I think that's fine. And Biden did that with many of our people. But when you look at it, these are people that I don't think are worthy. That's my decision. It's not a question of anger.
- [08:14]
Ad Narrator
Okay, let's talk about jeans. You know those stiff, uncomfortable leg prisons that cost a fortune, squeeze all the wrong places and make bending over a high stakes operation. Yeah, I used to hate jeans, too. Then I tried the perfect gene, and let me tell you, I have seen the light. I'm talking about jeans that stretch, jeans that move, jeans that don't crush your delicate assets. No more saggy diaper, but no more stiff, unforgiving denim. These bad boys are soft as a baby's bottom. I mean, who knew jeans could actually be this comfortable? I can bend, stretch, run errands, break out dance moves I have no business attempting. And yeah, I look damn good doing it as well. Here's the best part. These don't cost $200, $150 or even $100. The Perfect Jean is just 79 and honestly worth every penny. The fit is spot on, they've got sizes for everyone, and they actually make me want to wear jeans again.

Commentator 1
Donald Trump then claims that the main message of his campaign was, hang tough, it won't be easy. Do you remember, was that the message of Donald Trump's campaign, hang tough, it won't be easy. Do you think that's what he said?
- [09:50]
Commentator 2
Play this clip.
- [09:51]
Commentator 3
A couple of you said something a couple weeks ago that, that struck me. You said, concerning the tariffs, which economists say are going to raise prices. You said, quote, hang tough, it won't be easy. You said that to the American people. Is that what Americans should expect? Some hard times?
- [10:07]
Terry Moran
I've said during my campaign, look, we won a campaign by a lot. We won all seven swing states. We won the popular vote by a lot. You know, we had a tremendous campaign. I said all these things during my campaign. I said, you're going to have a transition period. We've been ripped off by every country all over the world. They're laughing at us. They thought we were stupid people. And we were.
- [10:29]
Commentator 1
And I told you, I mean, this is a good, this is a good interview. He did a good job. This interview. Terry Moran then talks about how, like, what's your message to small businesses? Like, okay, you're giving favors to Apple, like, they can negotiate exemptions to tariffs, but like, what's your plan for small businesses? And Trump's like, it doesn't matter. Apple's doing great.
- [10:52]
Commentator 2
Play this clip.
- [10:52]
Commentator 3
So your message to those small businesses who are saying we can't live a month, two months growths with these tariffs, Apple got a big deal. Is there something for them?
- [11:02]
Terry Moran
No, not only Apple. We've got seven to eight trillion dollars being invested in our country in two months. Biden didn't have that over a year. I mean, if you look at Biden, nobody was really investing in this country. Everybody was ripping off our country. Apple's putting up $500 billion, but that's only one of many companies. Companies are flooding into our country right now.
- [11:23]
Commentator 3
So your answer to the concern about the tariffs is, everything's going to be hunky dory.
- [11:28]
Terry Moran
Everything's going to be just fine. It wouldn't have been if I didn't do this. I had a choice. I could leave it, have a nice easy time. But I think ultimately you would have had an implosion. Our country had inflation that was worse than they've ever had it before. You don't mention that. Why don't you mention that we had the worst inflation probably in the history of our country?
- [11:49]
Commentator 1
People say when you watch this, right? Like, doesn't it look like a deranged individual? Like, like it literally, like, this is the guy who's controlling the economy. Who thinks a photoshopped Ms. 13 IS. IS real when it's obvious. It's obviously Photoshopped. Who's saying tourism is up when it's down. Like, we all see this. Like, like, could we talk about that? This is like a demented individual. Uh, then Donald Trump tries to throw his lawyers under the bus and says that when it comes to providing due process, he doesn't know anything about that. His lawyers do.
- [12:25]
Commentator 2
Play this clip here.
- [12:26]
Terry Moran
Including terrorists, by the way. Now. But the law give them a hearing when they came in.
- [12:32]
Commentator 3
Well, the law requires that every single person who is going to be deported gets a hearing first.
- [12:38]
Terry Moran
Well, you acknowledge that. I'll have to ask the lawyers about that. All I can say is this. If you're going to have 21 million people and if we have to get a lot of them out because they're criminals, we're going to have to act fast. We can't. Do you think we can give 21 million trials? Let's say each trial takes two weeks. Is that what you want us to do?
- [12:59]
Commentator 3
The law is the law.
- [13:00]
Terry Moran
The law doesn't say anything about trials.
- [13:02]
Commentator 3
No, not trials, hearings.
- [13:04]
Terry Moran
These people came in. They're not citizens. They came in illegally. They came into our country illegally. We have to get them out.
- [13:10]
Commentator 3
There's a legal process for that.
- [13:11]
Terry Moran
I can't be sure. And we follow the legal process. I can't. I can't have a trial, a major trial, every person that came in illegally.
- [13:20]
Commentator 1
Then Donald Trump is asked a very simple question. If he recommends that parents get their kids vaccinated for measles, and Trump's like, ah, let's leave it to the governors. I don't know.
- [13:30]
Commentator 3
Play this clip because people aren't getting their children vaccinated. Do you recommend to parents that they get their children vaccinated from measles?
- [13:38]
Terry Moran
Well, I recommend the governors to make the decisions. You have a very talented governor of Texas, and he's making decisions, and those decisions are going to be made rapidly. This is a very much different thing than Covid in terms of rapidity and speed and other things. Measles have been with us a long time. And I'm not saying good, bad or indifferent. I'm just saying that the governors are making the Decision. It's a federalist decision.
- [14:03]
Commentator 3
The President is. Is our leader in so many ways, and your voice counts so much, and you can't tell moms and dads, yeah, it's a good thing to get a measles.
- [14:14]
Terry Moran
Do I recommend it? Yes, I do. Okay, got it.
- [14:18]
Commentator 3
That was.
- [14:18]
Terry Moran
Mandate it. No, no, no, I do recommend it. Yes.
- [14:21]
Commentator 3
Do you think you're.
- [14:22]
Terry Moran
And I have recommended it.
- [14:23]
Commentator 3
Do you think the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Who has a history of, at the very least, vaccine skepticism. Do you think Kennedy recommended the measles vaccine?
- [14:32]
Terry Moran
He did. He did. He recommended it? Yeah, he did. He satisfied with his. Yeah, I mean, he. Responses. He recommended that they go out and get the vaccine.
- [14:42]
Commentator 3
Okay.
- [14:43]
Commentator 1
I truly believe that you could ask this guy any question and he'll say something crazy. I think you can say, what color is the sky? I leave it to the governors. What year is it? Do you think it's 2025? Right? What a fake question. Like, I truly think that if you asked him anything, like. Like, he is someone who clearly is not. You know, I'm. I'm not trying to give him an out by trying to say, oh, cognitive issues. But, like, he's a liar, he's dangerous, he's vile, he's a sexual abuser, he's a felon, he's a fraud. And he's also. Seems to also be cognitively declined. I mean, you see it. It's crazy. Um, here you've got Donald Trump saying that he thinks that Putin wants to stop the war.
- [15:30]
Commentator 2
Here, play this clip.
- [15:32]
Terry Moran
He could be tapping me along a little bit. I would say that he would like to stop the war. I think that if it weren't for me, I think he'd want to take over the whole country. Personally, I always felt so when I left, there wasn't even a chance that this would happen. When Biden got involved, I won't say whether or not he handled it properly, but obviously it wasn't good because the war started. Putin went in, the war started. I believe that Putin wanted to get all of Ukraine once he went in. And I think part of the reason he went and he saw what happened in Afghanistan, how incompetent and how incompetently Milley and all these guys handled that. It was one of the greatest embarrassments of our lifetimes. But maybe in the history of our country, okay, so Putin went in. I think Putin wanted all of Ukraine. I think if I didn't win the election, he would have gotten all of Ukraine. I Think he would have taken all of Ukraine, I think his first choice.
- [16:28]
Commentator 1
And then Donald Trump praises Doge, he says, for saving hundreds of billions of dollars when they said they were going to save 2 trillion. Actually, federal spending is up now, more federal spending now under Trump than under former President Biden. And Doge has added like 150 billion to our deficit.
- [16:47]
Commentator 2
Here, play this clip.
- [16:48]
Terry Moran
There were some things where, when I heard about them, I put them back. As you know, there are things that I'm considering right now putting back, but overall, we've saved hundreds of billions of dollars.
- [16:59]
Commentator 3
Well, the original promise was 2 trillion, went to 1 trillion, now to 150 billion.
- [17:03]
Terry Moran
You don't know what it's going to be because we have things that are very, at a very high level that are being looked at right now. We also found tremendous waste, fraud and abuse. As you know, we found a lot of fraud. There was a lot of fraud. Fraudulent things were taking place and we ended that and those people are going to be suffering because of it.
- [17:22]
Commentator 3
A legal note fraud is a crime. There have been no referrals to the Justice Department on any.
- [17:26]
Terry Moran
Well, you don't know that, do you? How do you know that?
- [17:30]
Commentator 3
Have there been referrals today?
- [17:32]
Terry Moran
Are there. How would you know that? That there were no referrals? I think there were.
- [17:36]
Commentator 3
They generally are. There's been no investigation from the.
- [17:39]
Terry Moran
How do you know that?
- [17:40]
Commentator 3
I'm asking you, sir.
- [17:41]
Terry Moran
No, you're not asking me. You made a statement, you know.
- [17:44]
Commentator 3
Now I'm asking you.
- [17:45]
Terry Moran
That was a statement that you made. There had. I'm asking him, have there been. Yes, there have.
- [17:49]
Commentator 3
So there have been referrals for fraud from the workers.
- [17:53]
Terry Moran
Take a look at some of these things that took place. Billions of dollars were given to people for no reason whatsoever. Of course they have to bring up.
- [18:01]
Commentator 1
And then finally, Donald Trump is asked about the law firms that he's going after. And here's what he says.
- [18:07]
Commentator 3
You've gone after law firms because they've employed people you don't like or they have represented people.
- [18:13]
Terry Moran
They obviously agreed because they paid me a lot of money.
- [18:16]
Commentator 3
The reason they agreed is because you were threatening to destroy their business with your executive order that said you can't represent clients before the federal government. That's their bread, boys.
- [18:27]
Terry Moran
These are big. These are the biggest, most powerful lawyers. These are not. You got a lot of leverage as president.
- [18:33]
Commentator 3
You've got a lot. The cards.
- [18:34]
Terry Moran
They paid hundreds of millions of dollars because they felt, I guess they probably felt they did something wrong.
- [18:40]
Commentator 3
It was for Survival, sir.
- [18:42]
Terry Moran
No, it is.
- [18:43]
Commentator 3
You're crushing the business.
- [18:44]
Terry Moran
These firms are very powerful firms, and there's 15 of them. And these are firms that probably. Look, you have to ask them. In fact, this is a separate story. You have to ask them, why did you all pay Trump hundreds of millions of dollars in services, etc. Why did you do that? I don't know. You don't think that we have a clause in the thing that while we admit no wrongdoing, but, you know, it's like one of those things. And now I'm friendly with those firms, but it's, you know, these are the most powerful firms in the world, and they just signed whatever I put in front of them. I've never seen anything like it. I'm actually surprised myself in a certain way. But they obviously felt they probably did something wrong. I guess that's why they signed.
- [19:34]
Commentator 3
I guess the question out of that is the concern that people have are, are you using your powers as president to get personal revenge?
- [19:42]
Terry Moran
No. I'll tell you what, I tell you what, you should not. You're really not asking, and you should be asking. There has never been a president in this country in the history that was persecuted, like I was persecuted by really crooked people, dishonest, horrible people. And it's been proven. So when you say I'm treating people rough, I'm not treating people rough. I was treated worse than any president in the history of our country. And, you know, people figured, well, maybe that's it. Finally we got, you know, he's leaving town, there goes the helicopter. And then I came back. And I came back because I have tremendous support. You know, when you win an election like I wanted, and you will admit, I won all seven swing states, I won the popular vote. I won 700, let's see, 2,750 districts compared to 500 districts. That's why the map is all red. And those people feel that. That I was treated unfairly. But is that.

Commentator 1
