Donald Trump 2012 White House Race Underway

Donal Trump Trump corporation chairman and ceo, .:"... we're not respected by any stretch of the imagination. you just look. i was watching your show and i see oil prices where they're predicting $175 a barrel. if that happens , and by the way, it's happening because of OPEC. the only problem, i don't hear your guests talking about OPEC. they talk about all sorts of reasons for the oil going up. And I watched somebody yesterday who was saying there's so much oil we don't know what to do with it but it keeps going up despite tremendous supply. and there's only one reason. it's called OPEC. and nobody ever mentioned OPEC, " "... Well they're flirting with anybody that they'll flirt with. we have tremendous power over these people. we've protected them. they wouldn't be there if it wasn't for us. you look at what happened with Iraq where Iran is already making moves to take over Iraq as soon as we leave and take over those oil fields. you look at the way this country is run. we're a laughingstock throughout the world. i see that and i say it and i do the today show and i say it. and all of a sudden polls come out and it has me doing very well and I'm not that surprised because people in this country are smart and they don't want to be ripped off. you look at OPEC, you look at china. and you talk about this all the time, Larry. they manipulate their currencies. it's very, very hard for our companies to compete because of the manipulation of their currency. but beyond that, they take our jobs, they take our money and then they loan it back to us and we pay them interest. it's unbelievable."
