On the Knicks in the NBA finals: I’ll be going to game 3. I thought it was amazing. I thought the Knicks were an amazing team the way they played. They started off slow and they just got stronger and stronger. Wemby looks like he’s going to be a great player, but [the Knicks] played well.
On his favorite Knick: Brunson is fantastic. Towns is fantastic. They have a great team.
On the cost of tickets for the game reaching $8,000: They can watch it on television. You’re sort of semi free to watch it on television. That’s the way life goes. If the team wasn’t a big success you could go very easily.
Sen Tillis has said he won’t confirm Todd Blanche unless he condemns Jan. 6. Do you have a reaction to that? Sen Tillis is a loser. That’s why he didn’t run. He didn’t run because I wouldn’t support him. He’s just an angry man because he’s not going to be a senator any longer. He wasn’t respected anymore. He fought a lot of people. He fought Pete Hegseth who turned out to be a gem. Sen. Tillis is a loser. He’s an angry man. He was forced to leave the senate because I wouldn’t support him and he quit. So now he’s trying to make trouble. Todd Blanche is brilliant guy who everybody likes and everybody respects.
Tom Tillis is like ‘I’m gonna do this. I’m gonna do that.” He needed my support and I said I can’t give you my support. He’s not qualified. He’s not good for the position for senator.
On the IPO of Fannie and Freddie: We are thinking of doing an IPO.
Salary cap for baseball: “I know so much about sports. They should have done that a long time ago.”
Have you been briefed? Any updates on the FBI probe into cocaine found in the White House during the Biden administration? No. But I might ask about it.
Have you made a decision on the arms sales to Taiwan and have you talked to the Taiwan president about it? We’re looking at it.
On John Bolton pleading guilty on the classified documents case: I was never much of a fan of John Bolton. I never thought he was a smart person. He was radical right in terms of war. Not in terms of other things. He wanted to go to war with anybody who opened their mouth. He was involved with Bush….He created a lot of problems. But he always wanted to kill people. He’s a bad guy. John Bolton. He’s a dirty guy and they caught him. ... John Bolton is someone who is a very dishonest guy. And I guess he’s paying the price for certainly being dishonest.
How do you want to be involved in Kennedy Center going forward? Same thing. Chairman. Somebody has to do it. It’s lost hundreds of millions of dollars for years.
