California is very corrupt.
The elections are extremely corrupt.
The judge should not have done that,
but we'll appeal that, of course.
We found 20,000, but there are hundreds of thousands
of bad ballots, bad votes in California.
Millions, in my opinion. Millions.
It's a corrupt state and very, very corrupt elections.
If that, if California were honest,
if they had honest vote count, I would have won it by a lot.
The President Thank you very much.
We had a great morning from the standpoint of GDP.
It came out at a much higher number than any
projections, 3.4,
which was almost double some projections.
So we're doing great.
The country is doing unbelievably well.
The Alaska situation is terrible, what Pelton has done
and what Schumer and the Democrat Party have done.
It was a scheme. It was election fraud,
total election fraud at the highest level, criminal level.
Nobody's ever seen anything like it. So we'll see how that works out.
I guess it's being looked at,
but it's a very, very bad thing, very sad.
We have a great senator there,
as you know, but they tried to confuse it.
And, uh...
I mean, I'm a high-IQ person.
You look at that list of names.
They also put another person on here
that nobody's even talking about.
But when you take a look at the names, you would be, oh, my.
I would say most people would be inclined to vote for the Daniel
as opposed to the Dan, the way it sets up.
It's very unfair.
It's very confusing and meant to be.
It's a fraud.
On Alaska, Lisa Murkowski,
she attacked your administration for filing the lawsuit.
She went on to endorse a Democratic candidate for governor.
What's your response?
Well, that's her problem.
But I noticed that she
also agrees that what they did here was a very bad thing.
This is a, you're talking about a totally different.
She endorsed somebody that I think she
shouldn't have endorsed, but that's her.
But she also does think that this is terrible.
What's taking place with the government,
with the race war, Dan Sullivan, the Senate race.
In California yesterday,
the judge denied the lawsuit to throw out those 20,000 illegal votes.
Do you think they're going to try to steal it from Steve Hilton?
Of course they are. California is very corrupt.
The elections are extremely corrupt.
The judge should not have done that, but we'll appeal that, of course.
We found 20,000, but there are hundreds of thousands of bad ballots,
bad votes in California.
Millions, in my opinion, millions.
It's a corrupt state and very, very corrupt elections.
If that — if California were honest,
if they had honest vote count, I would have won it
by a lot.
On a last question.
If Mary had told you,
should Republicans refuse to speak for her come January?
Well, you're going to have to see what happens.
It's hard to believe that she could even be allowed to run.
Frankly, I don't know how you can allow somebody like that to run.
It's so unfair.
When you look at that, nobody knows what to press.
We've done studies.
Nobody knows.
They have no idea who the Dan Sullivan is.
You have Dan Sullivan, who's a great senator.
You have another guy named Dan Sullivan,
who never even, I think, voted before.
He didn't campaign.
He was just put there as a fraud.
But people aren't going to know that.
So nobody's going to know what to do.
That's a fraud.
And it shouldn't be allowed to happen.
And it was done in conjunction with Schumer and everybody else.
It's an absolute — it's called voter fraud.
Should not have been allowed to happen.
Results of their honest election
In your view, what constitutes an honest election?
Well, I think what they do, if they don't correct this,
it would be certainly a dishonest election.
If they don't correct it, because you can take a good student,
a smart person, and give them that ballot.
A man that never ran for office,
that nobody ever heard of, is going to get a lot of votes.
And it's very unfair.

And I want the Arab vote, so.
The Press And are you worried about
Democratic rhetoric about trying to impeach
these deserters?
The President I think it's terrible.
All they do is they talk about impeaching everybody.
I mean, honestly, if we wanted to play that game,
we could play it just as well.
But they're talking about Pete Hegseth.
He's doing a great job.
He's a great warrior.
I think he's the best at his job in many, many years.
And a lot of people agree with that.
The Press What growth do you have
that Lieutenant General Sylvia?
Who, in your mind, is the legitimate winner of the Brazilian election?
I don't want to comment right now, but I thought the election
was a very great embarrassment to the people of Brazil.
I watched the election. I didn't take sides. I let it be.
I was asked not to take sides by the president, the current president.
I didn't take sides, but when I watched what went down in Brazil,
Well, the market says it. Just take a look at the market.
I mean, their market went down through the floor.
I thought it was a very disgraceful situation for Brazil.
You have that Lieutenant General Sylvia leaked
classified information at the Pentagon.
On what?
That Lieutenant General Sylvia leaked
classified information at the Pentagon.
She's got problems. She's going to have big problems. She did.
We're very much looking for leakers.
And she's going to have big problems, long-term problems.
The Press I think I'm performing well.
I mean, we're — the rallies are unbelievable.
I'm doing a rally now in South Carolina.
It's packed.
Nobody has ever seen anything like it.
I have a 99 percent favorable number with the
Republican Party that you saw just came out.
I'm at 99 percent favorable.
I don't know. I should hit 100.
I don't know who the 1% is, but so I think I'm doing very well.
But the rallies are very well attended,
and I think we've changed the whole, you know,
we've done a lot of them over the last week and a half, a lot.
We did two the other day in Texas.
We did a big one, a great one yesterday.
We had a great rally yesterday. You were there. Most of you were there.
And this one, we have lines of people going.
Two miles long, so it'll be great.
I'd like to see Lindsey.
In honor of Lindsey Graham, I'd like to see his sister win.
She's very talented, very smart.
She loved her brother.
Her brother was a great guy.
He loved South Carolina.
He was a great politician.
Thank you very much, everybody.
Thank you, everybody.
