Hey, Donald. I've got a great idea. Why don't we switch jobs? You take over TV, as you're such an expert in ratings. I take over your job and people can finally get to sleep comfortably again.

They hired a big, big movie star, Arnold Schwarzenegger, to take my place. And we know how that turned out. The ratings went right down the tubes. It’s been a total disaster. And I want to just pray for Arnold for those ratings, ok?

It’s a lot of work. When I’m up there speaking in front of 15,000, 25,000 people up there, using a lot of motion, I guess, in its own way it’s a really healthy act...I really enjoy doing it. A lot of times these rooms are really hot, like saunas. I guess that’s a form of exercise.
