So we have a president who is destroying our country. We have a president who wants all electric cars in a very quick start; he wants to have all electric cars. Everything has to be electric, and by 2030, that's in six years from now. And you know what? Electric cars are fine. They have a problem, they don't go far. They cost a lot to buy, and they're all made in China. Other than that, I think they're wonderful, right? And I'm going to end that mandate on day one when I get to office.

I met with the truckers over the weekend, and Roger Penske is a trucker, he's also a great Indianapolis… He won it 20 times. Can you believe it? Think of how smart you have to be. Japan, Germany, all these nations, they spend billions and billions of dollars trying to win the Indianapolis 500, and Roger. Penske's won it, he just won it again. He's won it 20 times. See, that's the kind of brain power we need. That's what we want in our military.

So I'm going to end the electric mandate. We're going to end the electric mandate also on truckers. So the truckers come to see me, they say a truck going to California, they like that… Tell him to make the microphone louder. It's terrible. ”

So we have a country that's in trouble. We're going to end the mandate on electric one day. They want to make all boats too. I went to a boat company in South Carolina, the boat. I said, “How is it?” He said, “It's a problem, sir. They want us to make all electric boats.” These are boats that are from 16 to 35 or so feet, fishing boats, leisure boats, beautiful company in South Carolina, beautiful.

The guy's been doing it for 50 years. He sells hundreds of boats every couple of months. I mean, really fantastic guy. And they use the Mercury engines and different engines in the back, no problem. They want to take that out. They want to make it all electric. He said, “The problem is the boat is so heavy it can't float.”

I said, “That sounds like a problem.”

So I said, “Let me ask you a question.”

I say, “What would happen if the boat sank from its weight and you're in the boat and you have this tremendously powerful battery and the battery's underwater, and there's a shark that's approximately 10 yards over there?”

And he said, “Nobody ever asked this question, and it must be because of MIT, my relationship to MIT,” very smart."

By the way, a lot of shark attacks lately. Do you notice that? A lot of shark… I watched some guys justifying it today. “Well, they weren't really that angry. They bit off the young lady's leg because of the fact that they were not hungry, but they misunderstood who she was.” These people are crazy."

He said, “There's no problem with sharks. They just didn't really understand a young woman swimming now who really got decimated and other people too,” a lot of shark attacks."

So I said, “So there's a shark 10 yards away from the boat, 10 yards or here. Do I get electrocuted if the boat is sinking, and water goes over the battery, the boat is sinking. Do I stay on top of the boat and get electrocuted or do I jump over by the shark and not get electrocuted?” Because I will tell you he didn't know the answer."

He said, “Nobody's ever asked me that question!”

I said, “I think it's a good question. I think there's a lot of electric current coming through that water.” But you know what I'd do if there was a shark or you get electrocuted, I'll take electrocution every single time. I'm not getting near the shark."

So we going to end that. We're going to end it for boats. We're going to end it for trucks. The trucks, on a tank of diesel fuel a truck goes from New York, a big, beautiful Peterbilt or any one of these great companies, they go from New York to Los Angeles without a stop. With electric much of the truck is used, the capacity for batteries, the batteries are very heavy and very big, very, very big. Many times the size of a tank that carries lots of gallons of diesel. You have to stop six times and you have to get charges."

There are no charges. The whole thing is… It's the kind of thing that if your five-year-old grandson were sitting up here and you gave him a quiz, he would say, “Don't bother with the electric.”

There's another thing, the truck is so heavy because batteries are very heavy. The truck weighs more than twice as much as a diesel truck. So what happens is they have to fix every bridge all over the United States to handle the weight. Every bridge has to be rebuilt because the weight is double and triple that of a gasoline or diesel tank truck."

And you say to yourself, “Who are these people that are destroying our country? Why are they destroying our country? Why is it that they're destroying our country?” All of that stuff is going to end. We're not going to have men playing in women's sports."
