STEVE DOOCY (CO-HOST): Your material was real funny, who wrote it? Who helped you with it?
DONALD TRUMP (FORMER PRESIDENT): Well, I've had a lot of people helping, a lot of people, a couple of people from Fox — actually, I shouldn't say that. But they wrote some jokes, and for the most part, I didn't like any of them.
