RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
PIRRO: "You know, I interviewed Ron I have tell la, the acting director of I.C.E., and he said that there was enough fentanyl seized by them last year that could kill every American in this country. We know that 90% of the heroin comes through the southern border, and, you know, what we also know is that, or you know, there are 800,000 federal employees who didn’t get a check yesterday. You’re sitting there waiting for a deal. The Democrats are not sitting with you. If this is an emergency — if this isn’t an energy, I don’t know what is."
TRUMP: "Well, I haven’t actually left the White House in months. And in all fairness, I’m doing a lot of other work. That’s a very important element of what I’m doing, because we have to get the southern border done. And I’ve been here virtually every night, I guess every night other than one day I flew to Iraq and then to Germany to see our troops, and it was great. To see them, was great. The level of love they have for this country is incredible. So I flew and then came back. I’m not even sure I actually missed a night, per se. But basically, I’ve within with here for many — I’ve been here for many months in the white House. I’m a worker. I’m like you, I’m a worker."
PIRRO: "You are a worker."
TRUMP: "Frankly, I’m ready, willing and able to get a deal done. They think it’s politics. I think it’s bad politics. This country wants to have protection at the border. Many of our crimes, much ms-13 comes through the border, drugs, a big proportion of the drugs, you know, that we have from this country in this country come through the border. The human trafficking where they tie women up, they put duct tape over their mouth, electrical tape, and they bring them and they traffic in women and children, and they come through the border. The areas that I’m talking about putting a wall. We do that, it can’t happen anymore. It’s unbelievable. It’s only politics. That’s the game they’re playing. I actually think it’s bad politics for them.
