REGULATIONS/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/WALL: “I’ve learned that we have great people, and I’ve learned you have very bad people and very deceptive people. And when I came to Washington, I was only here 17 times in my entire life. Never stayed over. I understand the system very well. It’s a very important system. I don’t know if it’s good, bad, or indifferent, but it’s a very important system. We’re going to do further tax cuts. We’re going to do further regulation cuts, knowing that we want some regulation, you understand, but you couldn’t build a highway. You couldn’t build a factory. You couldn’t do anything. We’ve done more than anybody’s ever done. We’re finishing up the military. We totally rebuilt our military. The wall is going to be complete very soon. You know, we’re doing 10 miles a week, and the wall will be finished very, very shortly. Had a huge impact. The border is now secure, and especially with the pandemic, because Mexico’s a very heavily infected country. We will have appointed almost 300, about 300 federal judges including court of appeals judges and two Supreme Court justices.”
