a few more things, right? What would happen if Trump solved all the problems that could be solved and what was left didn't look like that big a problem or didn't look like something that only Trump could solve? What would happen to his poll numbers then?

Well, once you solve all your big problems, you start thinking about things like empathy because it's a luxury. Empathy is a luxury. If everything's falling apart and you're in mortal danger, well then you need a Trump to do the things that no one else can do because no one else can do it and it's a mortal danger. People are pouring across the border or the dollar is becoming worth a penny. I mean, these are mortal end-of-the-world existential problems.

But what if he solved them all? So you have this weird situation where it's going to be hard for us to distinguish. Is Trump less popular because he solved all the Trump-only problems? I would say the border was kind of a Trump-only could solve it situation. But once it's solved then the next Republican can certainly maintain.

So I've always predicted that Trump's poll numbers would fall through the floor. Have you seen me predict that? Before it actually happened, I predicted it. And there would probably be a point sort of early in the election cycle, well, after he'd been elected, there would be a point early on where maybe he hit the best numbers he'd ever had because he hadn't done anything yet, and they're hoping he could solve the big problems. But I did predict in public that once he solved the biggest problems, his polls would drop because you didn't need Trump for business as usual. Business as usual is Marco Rubio, he could do that. He'd be great at it. JD Vance, absolutely business as usual.

But you really need to do something that's going to make everybody hate you and maybe try to shoot you. That's kind of only Trump. So once we finish all these only-Trump-can-do-it problems, if you combine the fact that Trump won't be running for office again, it kind of makes total sense that whether he succeeded or failed, his popularity as president should naturally come to an end.

So there might be a point—and I don't know if I would be bold enough to predict this yet—where the type of success that he gets is so undeniably crazily good that before he leaves office and maybe after his numbers will creep back up if for example he does put an end to the Ukraine war and we'll talk about that in a minute. If he pulled that off and if he got our budget a little bit closer to balance and if Gaza was heading in the right direction and if the border stayed closed and if the employment numbers were just crazy good because it took two years let's say but we finally trained enough American construction workers—I mean just take a look at construction. If the only thing that happened is you waited two years, well on day one it looks like, oh that Trump, he made a mistake. He sent back the only qualified workers and now we can't build this hotel. That's a real problem. It's a real problem. But in two years, what will it look like? Well, the companies that are still in business will have figured out how to hire locals one way or the other and they'll just be running their business.

So there's going to be a point where if Trump succeeds on this whole range of things that it looks like he is going to—it does look like he will succeed. If he does and then you wait two years and then let's say he turns down the temperature a little bit because he's not running for office. You know, when he runs for office all the temperature goes up. He doesn't need to do that again. So he can simply play for his legacy. If the last two years of his office he's playing for his legacy, playing nice. Basically, he'd be more like his meeting with Zohran, which even the left is going to say, "We don't mind that. You could do more of that. We have no problem whatsoever with you being friendly with Zohran in the Oval Office. Even we Democrats like that."

So the most natural arc for where this ends up is that Trump's poll numbers will continue to drop until, to borrow his language, no one's ever seen anything like it. He might break records for the lowest popularity of a sitting president. And whether that happens or not, the second part of the prediction is that by the time he leaves office, but it could be maybe shortly after, he'll have the best poll numbers of any president of all time. Of all time. Yeah. But you're going to have to wait to find out if I'm right about that.

So here's a little personal interest story. So I'm sitting at home and I'm in my nice comfy La-Z-Boy chair and I've got my phone and I'm watching the news and I'm watching a video that just happened really. It was right after the Zohran meeting in the Oval Office. And so I'm listening to Trump as he's talking on my phone. Then my phone rings. I'm like, "Oh, damn it." And it's West Palm Beach. Yes. The president called me while I was watching the president on TV.

So Trump called just to make sure I was doing okay and I was getting the help I needed for my medical situation. He followed up. My god. He called twice. Yeah, I missed it but he called back. But I will never get used to that. You cannot get used to it. There's no way your brain can actually process it. That you're sitting at home. You're literally watching the most powerful in my opinion and successful president in the history of all humankind. The most important person you could argue out of about 7 billion of us. And his little face and his words are on this phone that's like in my hand. And then the real one calls me. The real one calls me while I'm sitting there.

I'm trying to make this into a more interesting story, but it doesn't really need any extra details, does it? Just the fact that it happened at all. It's just mind-blowing. It's just mind-blowing.

Then I hang up the phone and Dr. Oz calls me also because I'm sure also because Trump originally got him involved. Also to check
