What Nikki Haley's 2024 Announcement Means for the Republican Party and Trump

After winning only one state on Super Tuesday, Nikki Haley has dropped out of the 2024 presidential race. But she stopped short of endorsing Donald Trump. Glenn and Stu discuss what this means for the Republican party as we move closer to Election Day: Can the Right unite around Trump? Glenn also reveals the biggest issue he had with Haley.

GLENN: Here is Nikki Haley.

HALEY: So many of the women and girls out there, who put their faith in our campaign: Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid. Do not be discouraged. For God will be with you, wherever you go. In this campaign, I have seen our campaign's greatness, from the bottom of my heart. Thank you, America. God bless you.

GLENN: Wait. Now, what happened?

STU: She nailed it.

GLENN: Nailed it.

STU: Wow. That was riveting.

GLENN: Wow. What happened there?

STU: She's walking offstage.

GLENN: She's walking offstage. We missed obviously, some of her speech.

STU: Wait. She might still be in. I don't know. We never heard her drop out!

GLENN: Yeah. Shoot. She congratulated Trump, but she didn't endorse him, which I guess makes sense. I guess. Maybe not on the first day. But --

STU: If she wanted to endorse him, she would endorse him, right?

I think she didn't want to endorse him.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: I mean, this is who -- this is consistent with the campaign, she's brought.

GLENN: Consistent with somebody that wants to be on the board with Ratheon. It is absolutely consistent with that.

STU: That is her path forward. Again, it's a good gig, I'm sure.

But it does. She's not running to be the vice president. She's not running to be, you know, the UN ambassador again.

She made a decision, that she was going to go a different direction there.

GLENN: So now, a lot of the people, that are, you know, writing, in -- in papers and -- and opinions, that look at this split in the G.O.P. as something that can be healed, I'm not really looking to heal it.

I mean, I'm fine with us all coming together. But I'm not going to go towards Mitch McConnell. Just not going to do it.

And they say that Nikki Haley should be a vice presidential nominee for Donald Trump. Because it would bring the party together.

And I'm not sure that would.

STU: I don't think there's any chance of that.

I guess, any chance -- these people do get over this stuff fast.

Remember, every -- almost every candidate winds up with a vice president. I mean, you know, go back to Bush and Reagan.

GLENN: Yeah. Reagan did not like Bush.

STU: Reagan did not like Bush. This has happened over and over in history.

GLENN: But I don't think -- Donald Trump doesn't do that.

STU: The only way he would, is if he's convinced it's the only way he has to win. And I will say, you mentioned the unity thing.

And of course, this is what everybody says, right? Oh, we have to bring everybody together now.

But it is important to note, that while Nikki Haley's faction of the Republican Party is not the majority faction, as we saw very clearly last night.

GLENN: It's weird. Because it still is in Congress.

STU: Yeah. Maybe. Maybe. I don't know.

GLENN: Let's see if John Cornyn becomes the Speaker of the Senate.

STU: Gosh. Please help us. Please help us.

Again, just because somebody has power at the top, does not mean they're not the majority of the Senate. You're right.

There's the higher representation of that faction in elected government, which makes sense. These people have been in government for 40 or 50 years.

Of course, you know, it's the people who get to the top of the power structure. But like, you also can't just say, hey, screw those people. Because I have news for you. You don't win any national elections, by the way, them. You will not win any national elections without the Nikki Haley faction of the Republican Party, voting for, let's say Donald Trump. Who is going to be the nominee. If you don't have them. Which, by the way, Trump was able to get in 2016. And got most of them in 2020 as well.

GLENN: And 20 percent of them who voted for Biden in 2020, say they will vote for Trump.

STU: Yeah, and you will get some of those people too. You also need the full base. And part of the base is the 30 percent of people who voted for Nikki Haley in these states. They do exist. They are still important to a Donald Trump victory.

So if you kind of do the thing, where you're like, well, you know what, if you're a McCain supporter, get out.

Well, you know, it doesn't work well. You do need those people, even if you don't necessarily have to bend to their position statements. You need to find a way to pull them in if you want to win these elections.

GLENN: I agree with you. I agree with you.

Just don't bend to their positions.

STU: Yeah. If you start saying, we will throw $200 billion at Ukraine to win over Nikki Haley supporters, that's a bad idea.

You have to keep your principles, and that's not seemingly what Donald Trump wants to do.

GLENN: And I would think that. I would really think that -- I don't know.

You know, I used to be a pretty good judge of the American people. Don't you think.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: I don't think I don't know if I can anymore.

STU: Yeah. It's harder.

GLENN: I just don't know.

I was going to say, I think the people who were voting for Haley. Will end up voting for Trump.

Just because the alternative is Hillary Clinton. Everything that we said Hillary Clinton would do, they're doing.

In fact, on steroids.

So why wouldn't there be that passion to make sure, that he doesn't get -- because we're done.

STU: These things tend to have a cooling effect. Right?

You have eight months until this election. But Ron DeSantis is another great example.

I mean, think of the things Trump said about Ron DeSantis on this campaign.

What percentage of Ron DeSantis voters vote for Donald Trump in the end? Ninety-seven, 95?

GLENN: I think 100, including him and his wife.

STU: Yeah, he's already endorsed him.

Like, these things cool over time. You have eight months to pull this out. You will see Joe Biden on stage, talking about how he wants to turn the country into a socialist republic for eight months.

Most of the people who have a Nikki Haley vision of the country, will say, well, I'm down to two people. I'll pick one of them. I don't want Joe Biden.

I think that's the majority. You will see, by the way, in some of the exit polls today, that large chunks of Nikki Haley voters are saying today, that they will not vote for Donald Trump.

You have to remember, when you look at those numbers. A lot of those people are Democrats. Who came into open primaries. Some of those people were independents. Who were probably left leaners and never really considered a Donald Trump or Republican vote in the first place.

And, you know, some of them are just disaffected people who are annoyed, at what -- at what Trump supporters tell them online, or what Donald Trump says.

Or how Nikki Haley, they don't believe had a fair shot. Whatever the reason is. A lot of those people --

GLENN: Bernie Sanders people came --

STU: Most of them came home.

GLENN: In North Carolina, 35 percent of G.O.P. voters said, they won't guarantee their vote for Trump. Along with 36 percent in Virginia. 33 percent in California.

The total is significantly higher among Haley primary voters, 78 percent in North Carolina. Sixty-nine, California. Sixty-eight in Virginia.
Won't guarantee their support for the party's nominee.

The overwhelming number of Haley voters who refused to commit supporting Trump, may not be that big of a problem, as a large number of them were Democrats, crossing over.

So you wouldn't -- I mean, I would --

STU: A large number of them.

GLENN: You would expect that.

STU: Yeah, of course.

If you're a Democrat, just trying to sow chaos in the Democratic primary, of course.

GLENN: Yeah. The people who gave her, you know, $100 million, or whatever they gave her for campaign.

They were Democrats. You think Reid Hoffmann is going to actually -- I mean, he could have gotten it nonetheless -- and she would say, I'm voting for Biden.

STU: Yeah. If she got the nomination, she would have voted for Biden.

GLENN: Yes. So let me play a clip from what she just said.

VOICE: Just over a year ago, I launched my campaign for president.

When I began, I said the campaign was grounded in my love for our country.

Just last week, my mother, a first generation immigrant, got to vote for her daughter for president, only in America.

I am filled with the gratitude for the outpouring of support we've received from all across our great country. But the time has now come to suspend my campaign.

I said I wanted Americans to have their voices heard. I have done that. I have no regrets.

And although I will no longer be a candidate, I will not stop using my voice for the things I believe in.

GLENN: Okay. I think that was -- you know, that was good. This has, yeah. And I don't --

GLENN: I don't fault her.

STU: Why -- why not?

You've already entered the race. You've gone through this. You have the money to do it. You got to a place where you were competitive in New Hampshire. Then you had to make a decision, do I drop out right now, or do I look at my home state, which is basically next in line in a month? I ride out a month, I could be tough. Take a shot at it.

If you don't get it, you don't get it. But you're a week away from Super Tuesday. She let it ride to Super Tuesday, and she drops out.

This does nothing to hurt Donald Trump's campaign. Nothing that she did hurt Donald Trump's campaign.

GLENN: No. No. No.

STU: Donald Trump did not need to campaign against her, to win all these states obviously.

GLENN: No. The only thing I have on Nikki Haley. I mean, I disagree with her on a few things.

STU: Sure, but she was a good governor.

GLENN: She was a good governor, and I like her. Personally, I like her.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: But I didn't agree with her on the war. Her approach for that. I didn't agree with her.

You know, I said really clearly, if you don't know what ESG is, then I can't vote for you.

I did my first interview for nominee was Nikki.

She didn't know what ESG was. I mean, she danced around it.

She knew a little bit. It wasn't key to her.

So I couldn't vote for her. I'm telling this now.

Anybody who listened to that interview. And knew what I had said on the air before. Would have known.

STU: Right.

GLENN: So I had some policy differences with her.

The only real problem that I had, was taking money from the uber left.

STU: Yeah. I think that's --

GLENN: Didn't like that. This has now, most of that money came to her, her super PACs. Which she cannot control.

GLENN: Correct.

STU: Now, obviously everyone likes getting money in politics, and she, of course, I'm sure appreciated the ads she ran. But to be clear, could not block that money, legally.

GLENN: No, but she welcomed it. She welcomed it.

STU: She said, basically, I took the money while Ron wanted it. He doesn't have it. I've got it.

She tried to use it as a talking point. And some of that money was not from the hardcore leftists, you know, like the Koch brothers.

And, of course, we always say the Koch brothers.

One of them is dead. Okay? The other one, he's not really spending any money right now.

GLENN: He's still voting in Illinois, strangely.

STU: Yeah. But he's more -- he's obviously a Libertarian. There was a bunch of money that came in, that was just anti-Trump money from various sources.

Some on the right. Some Libertarian. Some on the left.

The end of the story is like, look. She is a qualified candidate. That absolutely had a place in the race.

GLENN: Uh-huh.

STU: It's just, her vision of where the Republican going, is no longer the majority vision.

GLENN: It's so strange. Because she was a Tea Party person.

STU: She was always, I think, strong on defense.

GLENN: Yes, she was. She was.

STU: And one of the reasons she was a good ambassador, is because she had those viewpoints.

GLENN: She was a great ambassador.

I would have her as ambassador any day of the week.

STU: She didn't connect with that.

I will say, in her defense obviously she's been getting trashed by everybody for weeks and weeks and weeks.

In her defense, unlike many other politicians, that issue was key to her.

And she -- foreign defense, Ukraine, all those things.

She knew it was unpopular in the party, and she did not waver from it at all.

She came out and made the arguments, the best she could, in public, over and over again, to a Republican audience that was not particularly receptive. She tried, it didn't work. But she didn't back off of it. Some of her other stuff. Like the abortion thing, I didn't know where she was on that. She seemed to be all over the place. But that one particular issue, she was very strong and she stuck by it, even when it probably meant she had no chance to win the primary.

GLENN: Yeah.

STU: So you give her credit -- sticking by your views. I'm fine with that. You want to go down in flames because you believe something that the voters don't believe --

GLENN: I respect.

STU: -- that's the way to go down in flames.

GLENN: I have much more respect for that, than somebody who will twist their viewpoint.

STU: Totally.

GLENN: So look, I -- I feel tension between Nikki Haley and this program, because we didn't get on board. And she is a friend. I don't know if that's true. That's just what we have felt. I hope that is not true.

But I wasn't going to endorse anybody this primary season. Not going to do it. I would have voted for any of them, over this guy. And it looks like Donald Trump is the guy. I'm voting for Donald Trump.

So now that we've fought this, I hope that the Ron DeSantis voters and the Nikki Haley voters, will come to the conclusion, that, yeah. It's not your guy.

But I don't think we have anybody on any -- on any side, that everybody is like, I'm 100 -- I don't even think Jill Biden is for Joe Biden. 100 percent.

Now that we've fought this race, and we have our people, darn near picked. We need to come back together, and focus on what we are for, and unfortunately, Joe Biden is not for the same things.

He's for a completely different America. He said, the first time around, he was for, you know, normalcy.

Return to normalcy. A return to, you know, being together, as a country.

Well, that didn't happen.

None of this is normal.

None of this is normal.

And it's not the Republicans this time. It is the policies of Joe Biden.

And he might be a fine, affable, old man. But his policies are not fine or affable. They are a danger to the republic.

Now, let's see if we can all come back together, lick the wounds. Help each other heal.

And come together, and fight the good fight for the republic.

The Most SHOCKING Moments of Glenn's White House Visit with Trump

Glenn shares behind-the-scenes stories from his incredible trip to Washington, DC, and the White House. When Glenn sat down for an exclusive interview with President Trump, he didn’t think Trump would also give him a personal tour of the White House, including the Oval Office, his latest troll of Hillary Clinton, and even his personal residence and the Lincoln Bedroom. Glenn describes the historic treasures Trump showed him, like a copy of the Gettysburg Address. But Glenn can’t tell his favorite parts of the day because of an NDA. But he gives a hint: Trump is NOT at all who the media portrays him as.

STU: Welcome back, Glenn. Back from DC.

GLENN: Thank you. Interesting week.

STU: I bet it was.

GLENN: Interesting week.

STU: Yeah.

GLENN: Learned an awful lot. I've got to go up at least a quarter. Every quarter. There is so much going on. It is moving so fast. And you get a -- you get a completely different perspective when you're actually there talking to the people that are moving the pieces. And I had a lot of conversations that I can't divulge on the air.

I can't say, unfortunately -- I was with the president yesterday.

And it was an incredible, absolutely incredible -- and the thing I was most excited to share was his heart. He -- it was amazing.

Did the interview. Went into the Oval Office. And he left me alone with my wife in the Oval Office for like five minutes. Now, I'm like.

He was lucky, I didn't go through the drawers.

You know, I look -- where is that little hidden puzzle piece, that I saw on national archive.

But, I mean, he left us alone for five minutes. Nobody is left alone in the Oval for five minutes.

And he walks in five minutes later. Tania was so uncomfortable. Like, I don't know what to say.

What do I do?

And I'm like, they said, make yourself comfortable.

So have a seat, wherever you want. You know, probably not behind the desk. But have a seat. So we just go around. And I was alone with the Declaration of Independence. I mean, it was incredible in the Oval Office!

STU: Any part of you think, maybe I just kind of put -- fold it up. Put it in my pocket. Nobody notices. None of that?

GLENN: No. Uh-uh.

STU: Darn it.

GLENN: This is the first time I've been in the Oval Office. The first time you're overwhelmed. The first time you're like -- because it's a magical place. It really is a magical place.

STU: Sure.

GLENN: And so he said, he walks in. And he's like, you know, nobody -- I'm like.

STU: He said, what?

GLENN: Nobody sits in here without the president. Or, you know, without somebody else.

STU: Right. Yeah, that's really rare.

GLENN: And I said, I'm aware of that. He said, but I knew you would want to look at everything. So I thought you would be more comfortable if you were here by yourself. Oh, it was fantastic.

So we sit down. We talk. We go do the interview. And while we were talking in the Oval, we were conversing about a few things. And he said, and Abraham Lincoln came up. We were talking -- he is well-versed on the presidents. He is becoming a historian. He really is! He's really done his homework.

And he said, are you a fan of Abraham Lincoln? I said, yeah. And he said, you ever been to the Lincoln bedroom? I said, no. Want to go?

I'm like, wait. Of course I do. Yes. Let's do this interview.

So we do the interview. And he -- I'm told, he only has 40 minutes. Now we've just eaten ten.

And so we go. We do the interview. And his aides are cutting us off. And I'm like, I've got at least ten more minutes of questions.

And so we're getting cut off. And as we stop. His aide says, sir, the National Security Council is waiting for you.

And he says, right. I'm going to take them to the Lincoln bedroom first.

And they're like, the security counsel is meeting right now. They're waiting for you.

He said, let them wait. I'm going to take -- so he takes us, the longest way possible. He takes us through the entire White House, room by room.

Shows us all of the meanings behind things. All of the amazing, amazing -- like nobody knows about the White House. Takes us to the -- takes us to the basement, which is not really the basement. You know, it's the actual first floor where all of the guests come in. And they come up the grand staircase and everything else.

But it's the basement. And he's walking through. And he's showing me a troll, first of all.

I have to show you these paintings. I just see this painting of Laura Bush. And Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton. Up on a wall. He said, I walk by them every day.

And I say, this is not right. And he said, and then I got this painting of me. And, you know, it's me, with the flag face. Looking kind of tough.

And he said, I thought I put them between the two. And it had just gone viral. Just released a picture of him. And just gone viral.

It was a troll. The guy is just trolling. And he said, yeah. Don't you love it?

I just think it works. This trio really works. And I said, can I get a snap of them?

So we did this picture, the two of us, you know, on the ground floor of the White House. The tour goes by this every day.

Okay?

And all of a sudden, this thing goes viral. And they start -- memes start to be made, with J.D. Vance. In the pictures, they change -- people just started changing all the pictures behind us.

This is a meme before -- you know, going off before we finished.

And then he takes us upstairs. Takes us through all these things.

And the -- the aides keep gathering. There's like 20 of them now, following us. And I keep hearing, sir, the national security is waiting. He's like, I know. I know.

And so we got up to the executive residence. And the reason why he had to give us -- the reason why he had to do this tour, is because you're not allowed in the residence. And you're not allowed into the Lincoln bedroom, without the president of the United States.

It's the only one that can do it.

Melania cannot come down and do the tour.

It has to be the president. He's telling them. I'm sorry. But rules are rules. And so he takes us up, into the Lincoln bedroom.

It was the most incredible thing I have -- I mean, it's like -- it's a time capsule. It's really his bed. Which is about 6 inches longer than like the big king-size bed. It might have been longer than a California queen. It was very narrow.

Like, obviously, you know, he's not like Hugh Hefner. It's a very narrow bed.

But very, very long.

The mirror on one hand was extended to, you know, for somebody who is like six-nine, I think. Barron could use that mirror.

And then on the other side of the room is a writing desk.

And on this one table, all these things about his son. Lincoln's son who had died. And this really eerie picture of Lincoln. This painting.

And the president said, that was his favorite painting of himself. And it's really. It was spooky almost.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: And I couldn't take a picture. You're not allowed to take any photos in the Lincoln bedroom.

And I was so bummed because I couldn't wait to show them we. But they're in his writing desk. And on it, is the Gettysburg address. One of four of the Gettysburg addresses. He gave -- Lincoln was at Gettysburg. And said, Mr. President. That was a great speech.

Do you have a copy of it? And he said, sure. And hands him a speech.

And says, here. This is a New York reporter. Takes it. Types it up, and then throws it away.

So during the war, Lincoln writes four copies of the Gettysburg address.

In the four copies, only two of them say, this nation under God. Two of them don't say that. And we don't know why.

But the one there says, this nation under God. So it was just almost like a spiritual thing. We come down, and we're ending the tour.

And I said, I have to ask. I said, I know you're Donald J. Trump. But -- now, what do you think I'm going to ask. Because he cuts me off right there, and he tries to answer. And I was amazed that he knew what I was even going to ask. Where do you think I'm at? I know you're Donald J. Trump, but --

STU: I mean, it could be anything obviously.

GLENN: He said every day, and that's the right answer! But I didn't still know if he knew what I was talking. And I say, every day?

And he said every day, Glenn. I wake up every day, and I -- I say to myself, I can't believe I'm in this house.

STU: Hmm.

GLENN: I mean, he's still humble about it. He's still -- he respects that place. I mean, a lot of the -- well, he didn't tell me this. So I don't think I signed anything about it.

He didn't tell me this.

So the -- the word is, that Hillary stole a lot of the glass door knobs at the White House. Okay. That's the word.

Don't if it's true.

But stole them. He came in, and he redid all of the doorknobs, and they are beautiful. This guy has put serious money into the White House.

And he's never going to get any credit. And the rumor was, on those doorknobs, that they were going to take them out. I don't know if they did on Biden. But they don't want any of the Trump stuff in there. And took out the doorknobs.

But he's -- he's poured a ton of money upgrading that house, and he'll never get credit for it.

But he deserves it. All right. I'm going to talk to you a little bit about what we talked about on the important stuff here in just a second.

STU: So you were able to go through all of this, and look at all these incredible documents.

This is kind of like your fantasy league life, right?

GLENN: Oh, my gosh. Oh, my gosh.

STU: Every document you could ever want. Every piece of history you could ever look at.

You would spend no time actually being president, if you were president.


GLENN: I don't know when this guy has time. I really don't.

Some of the Secret Service guys said, he's here, in the middle of the night, working on stuff.

He'll do full day.

Then he's there. Who is up at this hour?

It's him.

STU: That's not the way the media presents him.

They say, he's watching TV.

Watching Fox news all day.

GLENN: Oh, there's no way.

This guy has learned so much.

There's no way I had a conversation with him, five, six years ago. No way.

STU: You notice a difference?

GLENN: Oh, huge. His learning curve is straight-up.

Absolutely straight-up.

And in the interview. There's nothing. I could have said things.

Remember the nuclear triad question that he was hit with?

Where he didn't really -- there's not a question I could ask him, where he doesn't know the answer.

Literally. Literally.

I mean, everything I ask him off-air or on-air, he's there. He knows it. If it's happening in the world, he knows it. I don't know how he keeps up like this.

STU: It is -- I mean, his energy level is impressive. There's no doubt about that.

I don't know. The bar was set pretty low the last four years. But his -- that's been one of the things, I don't think there's ever been really much at -- disagreement on.

The fact that we -- we did, years ago, went around with candidates, around Iowa, for example. Just in campaigning, and it was like, oh, gosh. By the end of the weekend, I wanted to sleep for a week.
Because it was just so much.

Running around. Doing -- can't imagine being president of the United States. He's always energized.

GLENN: He's always energized. I mean, and I saw him. When I got on to the plane last night. Because I know, he went from -- he went from my interview, directly to the National Security Council.

And then by the time I'm sitting at the airport, there's a video of him meeting with the people that were in the lobby, waiting for him all of these veterans.

And he's doing stuff with veterans on TV.

I mean, the guy is just boom, boom, boom.

Remember Joe Biden was like, he'll have -- he'll have some pudding.

STU: Oh, yeah. The pudding and the lid.

GLENN: And the lid. And that's it.

This guy is going non-stop.

STU: Obviously, we're just setting up the main course here.

Which is your interview with him.

That airs on Blaze TV tonight.

GLENN: It was on last night.

STU: I watched it on Blaze TV last night. It airs on YouTube tonight.

But, you know, you guys went into -- every -- every topic. Any questions he didn't -- you know, he didn't think he wanted to go to or wasn't comfortable with. Is there anything that he was off-limits? Anything like that?

No. He was joking with me. He was going across the hallway. He said, after the interview, he said no. Try to be kind to me.

Well, if you don't, I'll just say, he's over. He's worthless. He'll do whatever you want.
(laughter)

But, no. There was nothing. In fact, we didn't -- you know, we wouldn't. And we didn't give him any indication. Other than it was about the 100 days. And everything that's gone down the last 100 days and were coming.

So that's pretty broad. He said a few things.

And I want to give I one of them here. We were talking about the tariffs.

STU: Uh-huh.

GLENN: And I said, you know, how do you negotiate, when you have a group of elites like the WEF. When you have China who is against you.

And the world trade -- or, the World Economic Forum.

All the elites in England.

That are -- they're fine with the great, Great Reset. How do you negotiate with people who don't mind blowing the whole thing up?

Listen to this.

DONALD: I don't have to negotiate. I don't have to negotiate. I'm talking to people out of respect. But I don't have to. So we're this giant store that people want to come in and buy bye from. We're the United States. We have the richest consumer, et cetera, et cetera. Right?

But we're not going to be that way for long if we do something. But we're this giant store, and they all want to come in and take our product. But to take our product, they are going to have to pay.

And we will either make a deal with them, or we will just set a price. Because some countries are worse than others. Some countries have ripped us off really badly, and some countries have just ripped us off a little bit, but almost all of them have ripped us off. Because we've had really poor leadership. And what's going to happen, is we're going to negotiate -- we are negotiating with 70 different countries. But we're negotiating. We're showing great respect. But in the end, we may make deals. But either that, or I just set a price. I said, here's what you will pay for the privilege of servicing the United States of America.

And they have an option. They can maybe talk to me a little bit. Or they can not jump.

You know, they don't have to shop at this big store. Or they can shop.

But in any event, they will have to pay. Look, we owe 36 trillion for a reason.

The reason is: The trade. Also, the endless wars, the stupid wars that we fought. We're going to the Middle East. We blow up. We leave. We don't get anything.

And you're a big fan of exactly what I'm saying. I mean, let's not do this. Let's not do that.

It's stupid. Endless wars. Endless wars. That they don't even want us. You know, we got into wars. They didn't even want us.

So all of that stuff. You know, when I left four years ago, you know, we had no wars. We had no Israel and Hamas. And, by the way, it would have never happened. Because their enemies were broke.

They were broke.

I have sanctions so strong on Iran.

They were totally broke. They had no money for Hamas and Hezbollah. We didn't have Russia-Ukraine. That would have never happened by the way. We didn't have the Afghanistan embarrassment. One of the great embarrassments in the history of our country.

We didn't have any inflation. Don't forget, I charged China hundreds of billions worth of tariffs. They talk about inflation. We had no inflation.

Because that doesn't cause inflation.

Stupidity causes inflation. High energy causes inflation. When they took over my energy -- we were making it like nobody has ever seen.

GLENN: I know.

DONALD: And then the prices doubled. By the way, because of that, Putin went in. You see what's going on now. It's going down.

GLENN: Yeah, I do.

DONALD: It makes it much harder for Putin to prosecute the war.

GLENN: It was fascinating.

We talked about a few things.

Judicial insurrection. Was one of them!

Another pretty strong response on that one, as well.

EXCLUSIVE: Trump Tells the INCREDIBLE Story of Elon Musk, Nikola Tesla, and His Uncle

Immediately after his First 100 Days interview with President Trump, Glenn knew he had to ask one more question, even if it was off the record: How incredible is it that Trump is working with today’s Nikola Tesla, Elon Musk, when Trump's uncle was the man put in charge of sifting through Tesla’s files when he died?! But instead of having a private conversation, Trump decided to let Glenn’s audience hear the story too …

Why President Trump Is NOT "Negotiating" with Global Elites | First 100 Days | Glenn TV | Ep 429

In just his first 100 days in office, President Trump has moved faster to fix America than anyone expected. He created the DOGE, shut the border down, dismantled USAID and its wasteful spending, and put the world on notice that it can’t take advantage of America any more. But there’s still much more to do, and Americans have questions about what’s next. Glenn sits down with the president in the Roosevelt Room of the White House for his first one-on-one interview about his first 100 days. Glenn asks Trump what the real goal of his tariffs is, whether Elon Musk is really stepping back from the DOGE, whether Mexico is a failed narco-state, what his plans are for the cartels, and how he may react to the “judicial insurrection” of judges blocking his deportation orders. Trump also reveals his game-changing plans for AI and American energy, why he’s not “negotiating” with Europe or the world, whether Putin or Zelenskyy has been easier to deal with, and why he believes Glenn will “be surprised” by congressional Republicans soon.
