 DONALD TRUMP’S 1988 INTERVIEW WITH OPRAH WINFREY
 
OW: You took out a full-page ad in a major US newspapers last year criticizing US foreign policy. What would you do differently Donald?
 
DT: I’d make our allies, forgetting about the enemies, the enemies you can talk to so easily. I’d make our allies pay their fair share. We’re a debtor nation. Something’s going to happen over the next number of years with this country because you can’t keep going on losing two hundred billion. Yet we will let Japan come in and dump everything right into our markets and everything and it’s not free trade. If you ever go to Japan right now and try to sell something, forget about it Oprah, just forget about it, it’s almost impossible they don’t have laws against it, they just make it impossible.
 
They come over here, they sell their cars, their VCRs, they knock the hell out of our companies. I have tremendous respect for the Japanese people. I mean you can respect somebody that’s beating the hell out of you, but they are beating the hell out of this country. Kuwait, they live like kings. The poorest person in Kuwait, they live like kings and yet they’re not paying. We make it possible for them to sell their oil, why aren’t they paying us 25% of what they’re making? Its a joke.
 
OW: This sounds like political presidential talk to me and I know people have talked about whether or not you want to run. Would you ever?
 
DT: Probably not, but I do get tired of seeing the country ripped off.
 
OW: Why would you not?
 
DT: I just don’t think I really have the inclination to do it. I love what I’m doing I really like it.
 
OW: It also doesn’t pay as well.
 
DT: You know I just probably wouldn’t do it, but I do get tired of seeing what’s happening with this country and if it got so bad, I would never want to rule it out totally because I really am tired of seeing what’s happening with this country however, how we’re really making other people live like kings and we’re not.
 
OW: What do you think of how this year’s presidential race is shaping up?
 
DT: Well it’s going to be very interesting, I think that probably George Bush has an advantage in terms of the election. I think that probably people would say that he’s got like that little edge in terms of incumbency etcetera etcetera. But I think Jesse Jackson’s done himself very proud. I think Michael Dukakis has done one hell of a job and George Bush has done a hell of a job. You know he, they all went in there sort of a semi-underdogs, including George Bush and they’ve all come out, I think people that are around all three of those candidates can be very proud of the job they’ve done.
 
OW: You’ve said that if you did run for president you believe you’d win?
 
DT: Well I don’t know, I think that when, I tell you what, I wouldn’t go in to lose. I’ve never gone in to lose, and if I did decide to do it I think I’d be inclined, I would say that I would have a hell of a chance of winning because I think people, I don’t know how your audience feels, but I think people are tired of seeing the United States ripped off. I can’t promise you everything but I can tell you one thing, this country would make one hell of a lot of money from those people that for 25 years are taking advantage of it. It wouldn’t be the way it’s been, believe me.
