“I woulda preferred going to Chicago. I had a man in a big the head of a big big railroad they’re doing a merger and he came to see me all that stuff and I asked him cause it’s you know one of the largest train companies maybe the largest so you can figure out who it is OK? Union Pacific. And he was in my office and he saw started off 45 years ago with the railroad so that’s a great story [sir voice] Sir, I’m a railroader[/end sir voice] that’s the kinda guy that should run it as opposed to a Wall Street guy who’d destroys the railroad but he’s good financially, right? And he was a very impressive guy.
And I said so what do you think, where should we go next as a city cause we’ll do one two three next then we’ll do a few at a time but we’re we’re going to straighten out the crime in these cities. He said ‘Sir Memphis would be good’ because he’s on the board of FedEx he said ‘when I walk one block to my hotel they won’t allow me to do it they put me in an armored vehicle with bullet-proof glass to take me one block.’ He said it’s the so terrible. I said let me ask you a question, so we’re going to Memphis, I’m just announcing that now straighten that out [Ainsley: National Guard?] [Trump nods] National Guard and anybody else we need. And by the way we’ll bring in the military too if we need it. But National Guard, but Memphis is uhh look it’s a great music city you know it’s home of Elvis and everything else.”
