Transcript
i mean it would be pretty horrifying to run for office It seems like a terrible job And I think the the root age to run for president is now in your 70s So I have like three decades to consider it But if I were going to run I would be running on the basic idea that in this country the only thing that you are promised is is the adventure I'm not going to lie to you I'm not going to make you promises that I can't keep about how I'm going to fix your life because the truth is I really can't All I can do is help get the obstacles out of the way so you can fix your life and you can make your life better One of the things that that drives me up a wall is
when politicians say "I created X jobs or or we created X jobs." You didn't create a job Okay The government does not create jobs The government can take money from people and then give it to other people But it is only entrepreneurs who can create jobs And so the the way that you fight China off is not by the power of a centralized government directing people in a particular direction And the way that you fight off China is by unleashing the collective knowledge wisdom and ambition of the American people on an individual level to go out and do all of these unbelievable things And that that would
be the promise that I'd make to the American people is I'll get everybody the hell out of your way so you can succeed
