Donald Trump -- debate advice for governor Mitt Romney now we spoke we Donald Trump earlier tonight.
-- -- -- -- I -- I read your Twitter count all the time as Italian we have lots of followers and money treat blacks and date.
One of your recent -- says if president -- -- mentions governor Mitt Romney's tax returns and tomorrow's debate.
The governor -- should -- asked for president Obama's college records and applications you litigation do that.
Absolutely I think he should do that I don't know that he well I hope he does -- -- one of the moderator as will do it but.
It's a question that we should.
No -- an answer that we should know he is supposed to be that transparent president he's at least transparent president in the history of this country so many people have done it many people have given those records many presidents have given them.
Did nothing wrong with him doing it.
I suppose it's a -- supposed to President Obama -- is just fine with the number of tax returns and governor -- is not turned over and it doesn't wanna get into at all but have been some moderate Jim Blair who says -- -- -- governor Romney to blurt out I wanna see is -- records should.
Well I don't know if they're going to be genocide and frankly if he knew we had to do this he will be just -- if President Obama knew that he had to give these records and applications.
I think you would never mentioned the word tax return again.
But they've gone after Mitt Romney to -- well -- tax returns and frankly if it were me I'd say -- I give all the returns you want let's see your passport records your college records.
I'd -- you college applications what a great trait that would be one of the great trades ever.
What do you expect to CNET admitted -- -- -- can see that I don't really rough time of that apology in a few other courses.
But what are you looking for in the governor and -- the president's records.
Well the applications I think would be very very revealing from three different colleges and that it would be very revealing and don't forget what he wrote a -- a number of years ago.
On the cover over the book written by damage said born in Kenya raised in Indonesia so.
I think going to be very interesting frankly to say the publisher.
Agreed with that and that about a day later reset all I'm sorry.
It was a typographical error that -- I don't think Kenya Indonesia.
Is a typographical error but it would be certainly very interest -- so it I would admit.
And -- he kept harping on that these tax returns which are ridiculous to you given so many already and there a 100% to find.
I would certainly say I would give my tax returns let's -- your college applications your college records.
And also your passport records I think that would be very revealing.
I -- -- -- -- I was haven't given up on one particular issue but I will move on I'm curious what other advice do you have for governor Romney tomorrow night.
Well I think he's just got to be very -- very shot very Smart which he is and I think he's really got to put a very strong foot forward because.
-- you're playing -- dirty game of pool and let's see what happens they're being nasty fortunately doesn't say nice person anymore used to say nice man.
That the president is such a nice but he doesn't say that anymore because he's going through attacks that are in many cases very very answers -- I think he's got to be very very top and released forthright and he has to talk about jobs and the economy -- to talk about what China is -- to -- to talk about.
What OPEC is doing to us and gasoline prices.
And other things but this -- should be and that should be the focus.
I.
Go to -- the tweets say he had.
One earlier today we mentioned the Chinese you say the Chinese are not hacking -- White House computers why and that they RD all of the place that's the first month.
And then the second one hasn't doing this so low power it says that President Obama loves wasting -- money he just made another guarantee of a 197.
Million.
To -- solar company cronyism Weis is cronyism.
Well there's seven if you look at the people that gave whether or solidarity -- that there are big supporters it is so I would say that's cronyism at the highest level remained solid journalists 500 million dollars plus.
And you're talking about tremendous cronyism everybody the owner of the company everybody that was involved was involved with a White House many visits to the White House -- subjects as far as China.
You look at what they're doing I mean did we -- them much more than a trillion dollars.
And yet they take advantage of us at every single step so he certainly could say today on the White House.
-- no intention guys Ellison to and all the -- his you've done.
I know they disagree the president politically but what I also take away from that's even you know using the terms like -- -- -- think he's a bad guy this politically motivated does that it's not it is a different ideology than you but -- you take it one step further.
Well I think he's somebody that is interesting and I think it's amazing how will you know from.
To do with the way things worked out for him.
And I respect that greatly I always respect success and I respect success at a person and when a person is successful I give them their due and certainly he's become very success he's become the president of the United States.
A lot of people question a lot of different things and I just somebody actually at all being -- the real estate businesses in New York -- seeing things that maybe a lot of other people haven't seen and frankly.
I really believe that -- is going to have to be extremely tough extremely sharp.
Not nice necessarily endless debates.
And he's got to talk about things had a lot of people just start talking enough about and that's jobs.
And you've got -- you know we really have probably -- 21%.
Unemployment rate now eight point 2%.
It's probably what they want because that way they figure it is so ridiculous if you're looking for a job and you give up.
-- taken off the rolls and it doesn't show up in the numbers -- Our real number could be as high as 41%.
-- like that have to be discussed and very strongly during the debate.
Do you think that the -- -- -- percent to.
Are likely be present -- government Romney voters -- -- talk about.
Pretty amazing I think there's a lot of them will be President Obama supporters and that's just took me just incredible you look at the inner -- as an example -- cities.
But in this country.
Our -- for the most part going to be voting for President Obama and yet they have a 50% unemployment rate.
So you explain that to me.
Bucks went out and one thing is I have seen neither candidate go to the inner cities minute -- go to the funeral does that swing states although allows Wednesday said the so called inner cities.
But I I don't see either Canada -- talking about the inner cities at all.
Well President Obama has done nothing for the intercity so it's really and does various intercity is and there are plenty -- Amanda -- trouble and so it's really amazing to me how -- if you look at polls show he's getting most of those votes.
All right let's get more rubbed viewers the apprentice -- the debate.
Well the debates are going to be amazing -- -- I'm going to Europe.
Tomorrow and I really postponed it until around 12 o'clock in the evening because I really want to see this debate distant that it is going to have and by the way the apprentice as you know is -- real juggernaut has been amazing but.
This debate is going to have tremendous leadership people have been waiting for this for a long time.
As you know it's a very close election but.
-- will really have to step up like to get into party did an amazing job -- went to Florida actually was under the gun he was really in trouble and he stepped up.
And two which -- to -- he can handle pressure.
Very well he stepped up and won both debates and at once Florida that was the best political week in my opinion of his life so far hopefully this will be a great political week I think this debate is going to be very very important by the write -- -- parties.
Now thank you very much send us safe travels to Europe thank you very much ground.
