Speaker 1 (00:04):
Faith Freedom, Florida. This is the Brian Mud Show, and
we have had some kind of a historical run, not
only during the course of this year with President Trump's
remarkable run as president so far, but also preceding that.
(00:27):
You think back to everything that the president has been through.
The Trump Russia collusion hoax, two impeachments, four indictments, two
assassination attempts shot once. As I was talking about earlier,
four hundred and thirty federal lawsuits filed against the Trump administration.
Just so far this year, ninety four percent of the
(00:51):
lower court rulings on cases brought against the Trump administration
have rejected stration's position. Ninety four percent of these Supreme
Court decisions, when appeals have made it that far, have
overturned those lower court decisions on every single front. There
(01:13):
is a battle in this country for the heart and
the soul of it, and behind the scenes through so
much of this over the years. The Family new book
comes out a week from tomorrow, October fourteenth. Pre Order
it right now. It's under Siege, My Family's fight to
save the nation. It's written by Eric Trump, who's joining
(01:36):
us now. Eric has been way too long good to
talk with you.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Brian, It's great to be back, my friend.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
All right, So I can't imagine, you know, none of
us can imagine on the outside, your dad and everything
he's been through and how he continues to persevere. But
the other part of this is what you guys have
been through. You know. The strength of the president is
one thing. He is a force of nature. But walk
(02:03):
is story, just a little bit of what this has
been like for you and the resolve in the strength
of of all the rest of you to be able
to deal with this.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
Well, Bran, I've never gotten so much as the speeding ticket.
Yet I became the most painted person in American history
because I didn't have constitutional protections, right, I wasn't in
the White House. I didn't have you know, executive branch protections.
So that was a guy running a company. I was running
from organization. I was running all the assets that you
know right here and you know in in Palm Beach
and around the world. And sug guess what they came
after me viciously as you can imagine. You named a couple,
(02:34):
but you had You're the first impeachment, You're the second peach.
You had the dirty Adostie age you had the Russia hoax.
I mean, I was the guy that was getting the
call from from the FBI saying I hear you have
secret servers in the basement of Trump Tower communicating directly
with the Kremlin. I mean, give me a break. They
took us off of Facebook, they took us off of Twitter.
They you know, I mean, I can't count the number
of gag orders and posed and all those lawsuits that
(02:55):
you were just talking about. They took my father off
the ballot in Colorado. They took him off the ballot
in Maine. There was in ninety one different you know,
selling the indictments on cases that have all been overturned.
Your statistic that you just mentioned a second ago was fascinating,
and it's exactly right. They did everything they could to
deep platform us, to de bank us, to strip our
(03:15):
name off of every building around the world. They wanted
us done. They wanted us dead, they wanted us bankrupt,
they wanted us all in jail. And I'll never forget
I talked about it understiege. I mean, there's a moment
we were walking out of the courthouse in New York
and my father looks at me and he goes honey,
I don't know how, but we're going to win. Right,
And when he met win, it wasn't just the case
that we had just walked out of, but it was
the entire thing. And I looked at him and I said, Pop,
(03:37):
you know, it's either the White House or jail. You know,
we're doing nothing wrong. It's just that's the victual hatred
of these people. Again. I was getting subpeenus every single
day for damn cases for it. You know, they just
wanted to bankrupt us. They wanted to put us out,
they wanted to put us under siege. And then they
tried to kill my father the first time in Butler,
and then they tried to kill him the second time.
(03:57):
And they saw what they did with Descal, and you
saw what they you know, tried to do the Kavanaugh
and then you know, two weeks ago, literally right before
the book was announced, you know, they killed our good
friend Charlie Kirk, right. I mean, they've done everything they
could to try and destroy the MAGA movement, to destroy
conservatives in this country, people who just want to believe
in God, they want to believe in the Constitution, they
(04:19):
want to believe in freedom. And that's the siege that
we're fighting. And you know that the books never come
out at a more relevant time, so true.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
And again it's out a week from tomorrow, October fourteenth.
You can go ahead and pre order it now. Under siege, Eric,
How you're able. You just laid that out so brilliantly.
You know. One of the things that has always been
a real tribute to your dad, to your parents generally,
is you take a look at how many families have
(04:49):
a lot of problems, and you, guys may or you
may not, but how well adjusted all of you are,
especially growing up in the circumstance that you did. Evidently
the strength of your father must have been, you know,
and instilled in all of you to be able to
put up with all this and and to persevere in
(05:11):
the face of it, and to your point, to continue
to run the Trump organization the face of it.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
Yeah, well, I think genetics are strong. My little son,
he's he's eight years old. He's stuborn and tell as well.
So I think it's probably wants through offs either either
that or or Brian. Maybe we have like some like
masochistic you know type tendencies or something along those lines,
and just enjoy pain. But listen, they got us all along.
They thought that they can make his life so miserable
that you just never want to do it again, right,
I mean, inflict enough pain, inflict enough damage, waste enough time,
(05:39):
you know, embarrassed, keep him tied up for months on
ending court rooms, do the same thing to me, you know.
And if you did all of that, he would surrender, right,
he would just go away. And that's that's been the
democratics playbook, you know, the entire time. That's what they've
always tried to do. It's no different than the identity politics.
You know, do you remember you know Trump is anti Semitic?
What do you mean like Trump has been like the
greatest president for Israel? You know, Trump up is the sexist.
(06:01):
That's kind of funny considering his you know, campaign manager
in twenty sixteen, you know, Kelly A Conway female, you
know campaign manager in twenty twenty four Susie Wiles female,
Like you know the problem is that they're willing to
do and say anything to retain power. That's the problem
with it with and honestly the American people, they get
(06:22):
it at this point. There's only so many times you
can cry wolf and so right now, you have a
democratic quarty in this country that's the weakest has ever been.
You've got a mainstream media that's all but you know,
but failed. I mean, no one trusts the media anymore.
You have independent voices like yours that have become more
popular and stronger than ever before in the country. And
they look at Rogan, look at you know, PbD, look
(06:42):
at look at all these podcasts that are drawing tens
and tens and tens of millions of people who aren't
it called by you know kind of you know, corporate
media around the country. You know, they've failed at every corner.
And honestly, now with so much fun to see my
father in the White House has he's throwing so much
lead in the air that they don't know how to
count narrative. They can't catch it all. They don't know
what the hell to do. And it is it is
(07:03):
so much fun to watch.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
It is that and it's necessary because what you see
is you know, the fight on all Frances I was mentioning,
you know, you take a look at even what went
down over the weekend. I mean, it is horrifying the
situation we're hearing about out of Chicago with ice, all
these ice targeting incidents, attacks on ice up tenfold over
a year ago and only getting worse, and the you know,
(07:27):
alleged accounts that maybe Chicago PD were ordered to stand
down and not assist other law enforcement professionals that were
under attack. Your your father is going into communities luck
he did and had immediate success in DC and making
a difference. How important do you think it is to
show some of these deep blue cities that are being
(07:48):
run by Marxists that it really can be done differently,
that they can have a safe city and it can
be a better path forward.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
For everybody with I know kag incredibly well. I built
a very big building there, and you know, I spent
years of my life in Chicago. I know DC well
for obvious reasons that I went to school in Washington,
d C. To see a city that was a mess
gets cleaned up in twelve days and seventeen hundred people.
I mean, this is the exact statistic. Seventeen hundred people
Brian in Washington, DC got arrested and crime went to zero,
(08:17):
went from being insane to going to zero. It probably
shows you that you know, point zero zero zero one
percent of the people cause all the problems, right, they
can do that in Chicago. But then you have Pritzker
coming out and saying, how dare you? I mean, Democrats
have run the city of Chicago for one hundred years,
and it gets worse, and it gets worse, and it
gets worse. Yet my father goes in and in fourteen
(08:37):
days he cleans up our nation's capital like it's it's
the best it's ever been. I mean, you literally have
no crime there right now. It shows that sometimes if
you're willing to try something else, if you're willing to
have a little gall and a little backbone, if you're
willing to take action, you can actually effectually change, you know.
And so it breaks my heart. I mean, you have
moms and dads out there that are losing their kids
in these shootings every single weekend, senselessly when it can
(09:00):
be avoided. Like the pain and anguish of all of
this all because of stubborn politics, you know, and politicians
who can't admit that their policies stink and have been
wrong for the last century. I mean, it's it's really crazy,
especially as a business guy looking at this. If if
you mess something up, you tack you change, you change strategies,
you try something new. These people aren't willing to try
(09:23):
anything new. They've been running the same playbook for years,
using identity politics, bad policies. The only difference is they
had the entire mainstream media in their corner for that
entire time, and so you know, they could do no
wrong because you know, I mean, you know, they had
the greatest public relations in the world. And that's all
changed over the over the last ten years. People no
(09:44):
longer buy this stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Thank god, Eric Trump, we're talking with him. Is new
book under Siege out next week and the partial government
shut down right now. One of the questions all the
conservatives have why hasn't the president gone head and used
the opportunity to kind of do some more dozing here
with a lot of these furloughs, to make them permanent. Now,
I did happen read the guidance by the Office of
(10:10):
Management and Budget, the sixty five page guide to furlough employees.
I didn't notice that on page fifty there's an entire
section explaining that anybody furloughed may be riffed. So perhaps
that's coming. Can you speak to this situation?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
Yeah, I think he's he's planning to do exactly that.
I think he wrote a brilliant tweet about this yesterday.
I'm not sure if you happen to see it, which is,
I can't believe, you know, the Democrats gave me this
unbelievable opportunity to cut so many of these kind of
you know, you know, democratic controlled agencies that contribute nothing
and have only been a hamper to to our country.
I mean, you know, who would have thought if you,
if you went back nine months, the us AID would
(10:46):
be no longer, right, I mean, here's here's an organization
guysed in charity that was literally like you know, the
front for the Democratic Party, you know, and all their
initiatives and the chaos and everything else. I mean, you know,
they were half funding the Summer of Love, and I said,
is our cat the riots that were taking place all
over the country, and you know, and and working against
our country, right, I mean, they were handing out our
(11:08):
taxpayer money is like it was pez right, all while
also taking our taxpayer money and using it actually against
the very nation. But he flashed the hell out of
that and so much more. But no, I think I
think he fully plans to use the government shutdown where
necessary to take out agencies and people that are are
working against the United States of America.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
That's that's some good insight and an idea of what
might be coming here after sixty days. So you take
a look at everything that we've got going on right now.
Stakes are huge. Supreme Court is going to start its
new session right now. Something Eric, I'd always wanted to
ask you. I never talked to you about. My wife
and I are connoisseurs. You know has the connotation to it,
(11:50):
but we enjoy our wine. We're kind of prolific and
consumption and variety. And one of the things that you
have done exceedingly well is with the Trump Wine brand,
your vineyard. You're a state in Virginia. I've noticed it
only gets better with time. The meritage is one of
our absolute fair in fact, of that particular variety, your
(12:11):
maritage is our favorite. If you come to the Mud Compound,
then we serve you Trump wine. What's about a time
on mad It was kind of a novelty. Now it's
just playing great wine up and down. Tell us a
little bit about the wine.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Have you tried the cider? I'm going to say your
wife's a case of the cite. It's unbelievable. We make
it the same way as we make the all sparkling wines,
and it's fricking delicious. It's awesome. We gonna send you
you a case after this, but no, it's fun. Listen.
We you know, it was kind of a real estate deal.
We ended up buying this house. It was surrounded by,
you know, one of what was considered the best winerisoning
that when we're in the country. It was struggling financially.
(12:45):
We went in and you know, we're really good at
turning things around. It's kind of what we've done our
entire lives. And you know, we've typically done it with
hard assets. Obviously my father's doing it with the country
right now, you know, but we've always been able to
take something that was broken, that was mismanaged and and
turn it into and that was one of those properties.
And you know, Trump Winery is it's unbelievable. I mean,
you can't even get in there, you know, it is.
(13:06):
It's so busy. People love it. We're distributed in almost
every single state countries around the world. People and people
do it and it's one of the most beautiful properties
on earth, so you have to come down and visit
us one of these days. But now something I'm very
proud of.
Speaker 1 (13:19):
That's awesome. Yeah, I mean it is just playing great wine.
You've done tremendously with it. Eric, Thank you so much
for the time. Looking forward to your book becoming a bestseller.
Whether the New York Times will recognize that or not,
we're going to win.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
It's flying on Amazon right now. We're going to win it,
my friend. So I appreciate you very much, and anything
you ever need from me and some wine coming your way.
Speaker 1 (13:37):
Thank you so much. Appreciate that. God bless and again
under siege, my families fight to save the nation. Go
ahead and pre order it right now, out a week
from tomorrow.
