LAWRENCE JONES (CO-HOST): Mr. President, you're going to be back on the campaign, actually you got another event to go to, so thank you for giving us some time. 

DONALD TRUMP (FORMER PRESIDENT): You know what the event I have now?

BRIAN KILMEADE (CO--HOST): No.

TRUMP: A very big event, I'm going to see Rupert Murdoch. That's a big event. I don't know he's thrilled that I say it. 

AINSLEY EARHARDT (CO-HOST): Please tell him we all said thank you. 

TRUMP: And I'm going to tell him something very simple, because I can't talk to anybody else about — don't put on negative commercials for 21 days, don't put them on, and don't put on their horrible people that come and lie. I'm going to say, Rupert, please do it this way and then we're going to have a victory, cause I want everyone wants that.
