You see, people have me all wrong.
I heard all this crap, you know, Trump made you.
I retired at the age of 39.
I didn't need to work for Donald Trump.
When he offered me that job, which came out of the blue, I didn't put in an application.
He asked me to help him with a matter, a matter that dealt with the casinos.
And, of course, I had done several of the legal matters for him as well prior to that.
And he was like, you happy at that sleepy old firm that you're at?
He was at one of the oldest law firms in America, Phillips and Iser.
I was a partner at the firm.
He's like, yeah, I don't really work too hard.
I'm doing just fine, having a great time, great life.
He said, why don't you come work for me?
I'll give you Ivanka's office.
They just built on the 25th floor.
You'd be my personal attorney, my special counsel.
