Former President Donald Trump said on this week’s broadcast of “Sunday Morning Futures” that he was just “having fun” when he said that he would be a dictator on day one if re-elected.
Host Maria Bartiromo asked, “You made a comment recently that you’d be a dictator for day one. And you said that you would close the border and drill, drill, drill. What specifically did you mean by that?”
Trump said, “Well, I think, you know, it was with Sean Hannity, and we were having fun. And I said, I’m going to be a dictator because he asked me, are you really going to be a dictator? I said, absolutely, I’m going to be a dictator for one day. I didn’t say from day one.”
