That was Donald Trump's interview on Fox this evening. Even Laura Ingraham had to fact check him because the things he was saying were just so obviously deranged and false. Here, by the way, Laura Ingram asked Donald Trump, So you know, a lot of people are worried that you're going to try to be a dictator and seek retribution on people. What do you say to that? Play the clip.
Dr. Mark Siegel 0:41
How will you restore faith in our justice system? A lot of people will say, well, he's just gonna do to them what he they did to him and get back at them and and they're and a
Donald J. Trump 0:51
lot of people say that's what should happen. You wanna know the truth.
Ben Meiselas 0:57
As our editor-in-chief Ron Philipkowski says so, Laura Ingraham says, those lying Democrats accuse you of wanting to be a fascist in your second term. You don't want to be a fascist, right? And then Donald Trump goes, Yeah, I actually I do. Here Donald Trump says, I will be a protector of women. How creepy can you get? Play this clip right here.
Donald J. Trump 1:20
I say to people, and I'm very I'm not ashamed of that. I saw a couple of wise guys on the left saying, Oh, who is he? I want to protect women. I'm gonna protect women and I'm gonna protect men and I'm gonna protect children, and that's my obligation to do it with the military and with law enforcement.
Ben Meiselas 1:36
A hundred Donald Trump's then asked a very basic question by Laura Ingraham. How would he do things differently? Um, in uh response to Hurricane Helene, and it's just a bunch of words, Sally. Let's play this clip right here.
Donald J. Trump 1:49
But more importantly than that is they don't have the people. They're not doing it's a bad it's a very bad thing.

How does Laura Ingraham challenge Trump on accusations of dictatorial ambitions?

Donald J. Trump 1:53
This is how would you do it
Dr. Mark Siegel 1:54
differently?
Donald J. Trump 1:55
I'd have a tremendous team of people here. They don't have any people here. The people are all c I was in North Carolina yesterday, I was in Georgia, and Georgia's different. You have a good governor, he's doing a very good job. But North Carolina is a disaster and it was also hit very hard. But they don't have the people. And they're complaining, there's no people around to help. That was a horrific storm, much
Ben Meiselas 2:15
The Charlotte Observer Editorial Board said the following: Western North Carolina is not a political football. Donald Trump has politicized the situation at every turn, spreading falsehoods and conspiracies that fracture the community instead of bringing it together. Laura Ingraham then asks him a question about Elon Musk, your play this
Donald J. Trump 2:38
clip. Response has been so bad to the hurricane. They have this response has been horrific to the case. But didn't
Dr. Mark Siegel 2:44
Elon praise Pete Buttigieg saying he cleared the way for some of my helicopters to come in? He he he praised Buttig. Well
Donald J. Trump 2:51
Well that was two days late because w what happened is he sent his uh great, you know, gadgets in. He has the one most uh the Starlinks. It's a it's incredible for communication. But they were asking me the people of North Carolina and representatives, they said, Could you possibly speak to Elon Musk and get it? And Elon came through and then they sent it in and they they wouldn't allow it to go in and took two days and then boot edge edge. as you say, boot edge edge, uh called and I guess uh two days late though.
Dr. Mark Siegel 3:21
Were they shamed, are you saying, into Of course they were.
Donald J. Trump 3:24
There was huge publicity that they wouldn't allow. He had helicopters bringing stuff in that's not even gettable. You can't even get it.
Ben Meiselas 3:31
Indeed it was a very weird Elon Musk appearance in Butler, Pennsylvania as well. Remember when he did this play, this clip?
Donald J. Trump 3:38
Come here.

What bizarre claim does Trump make about being a “protector of women” and how is it fact‑checked?

Donald J. Trump 3:40
Take over, Eli, yes take over.
Ben Meiselas 3:42
And as Paula Y says, there is literally media coverage of the National Guard and helicopters, and it wasn't two days later. FEMA was on the ground before the storm. Republican politicians of affected areas have been praising President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris's response.
