1. ‘Biggest mistake’
Trump maintained that he won the “crooked” 2020 election that saw Joe Biden sworn in as the 46th president. His “biggest mistake” was hiring the wrong people. But claims he had good relationships with both Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin, who respected him more than Biden.
2. Kim Jong-un pal
“By the time I finished we had no problem with North Korea,” Trump said. He claimed to have told the North Korean leader to stop building his weapons source. “I said: ‘Do you ever do anything else? Why don’t you go take it easy? Go to the beach, relax.

“I said: ‘You’re always building nuclear, you don’t have to do it. Relax!’ I said: ‘Let’s build some condos on your shore.’” The pair seemed to build a good relationship, despite Kim Jong-un greeting Trump with: “Little Rocket Man, you’re going to burn in hell.”
3. Back off Putin
Trump also reflected on his relationship with Putin, claiming they used to “talk all the time.” He said “I can’t tell you what I told him, because I think it would be inappropriate, but someday he’ll tell you, but he would have never gone in [to Ukraine ].”
He told Putin “you’re not going in” and claimed the only reason he did was because he didn’t respect Biden.
4. Alien life
Moving onto extraterrestrial life, Trump said he hasn’t ruled out life on other planets. “There’s no reason not to think that Mars and all these planets don’t have life,” he said.
Trump said he’d had conversations with jet pilots who’d seen “very strange” things in the sky. While Rogan said he thought rovers would have picked up life on Mars, Trump responded: “Maybe it’s life that we don’t know about.”

5. Harris has a ‘low IQ’
Moving onto the current election, Trump had plenty to say about key figures in America. As well as describing Harris as a “very low IQ person,” he described California’s Gavin Newsom as “one of the worst governors in the world”.
However, Trump is a big fan of Elon Musk, who he said was the “greatest guy.” The business man also reassured voters he was in “perfect and excellent health,” but will not be sharing his medical records.
6. ‘Perfect health’
The Republican came under pressure by Democrats to share his medical records after Joe Biden was accused of incompetence due to his age and health. “I was never one that could, like, run on a treadmill. When passing a physical, they asked me to run on a treadmill and then they make it steeper and steeper and steeper and the doctors said, it was at Walter Reed [hospital], they said: ‘It’s unbelievable!’ I’m telling you, I felt I could have gone all day.”
But Trump assured he found treadmills “really boring” and would stick to playing golf.
