00:00I want to say thank you to all of you for your hard work.
00:07They are not going woke.
00:09Those guys did a good job.
00:11Thank you so much.
00:13Thank you, Carlos.
00:15Thank you so much, Carlos.
00:17Mr. President, we have a couple of people who have been doing
00:19their work in business.
00:21Restaurants.
00:23We have an executive chef.
00:25He says his steak is excellent.
00:27He says his steak is excellent.
00:29They all come back with great reviews.
00:31Omar, tell us about all the work you've done here in Detroit.
00:35How you came up in Detroit.
00:37And then whatever question you have for the President, please.
00:40Absolutely.
00:41Thank you for having me.
00:43And thank you, Detroit, for supporting us.
00:45President Trump, welcome to Detroit.
00:51Thank you very much.
00:53Thank you, Omar.
00:55I'm excited to be here with you today, President Trump.
00:58I'm a restauranteur and executive chef at table number two restaurant
01:02downtown Detroit.
01:04We are on our way of being a Michelin star restaurant, with the help of
01:08God and yourself.
01:11I'm successful now, but I started out born and raised on the east side
01:15of Detroit, in an urban community.
01:18I give credit to the urban community, because without them, it would
01:21never be me.
01:23I grew up teaching young kids to push, dream big, work hard.
01:28I want our kids today to be dreamers, bigger, so they can achieve more
01:33like I did, and even more.
01:36What will your administration do to ensure our young children are given
01:39the opportunities and challenges to keep growing?
01:42That's my question, but I also want to point out publicly on record that
01:47when you were in office, Mr. President Trump, the African American
01:50community, the Latino community, the Arabic community, we all soared.
01:57The money was pumping when you were in office.
02:00As a restaurant operator, I'm telling you that the money was pumping.
02:10And the money is not pumping now, and we need to get back to that,
02:14because it's ruining our economy.
02:17Right.
02:18Well, as you know better than anybody, Omar, the money was not a problem
02:21four years ago.
02:22The banks were lending, and they were lending at very low rates, and now
02:25you can't get money at 10 and 11 and 12 percent.
02:28You can't get any money, especially for a small business.
02:31It's almost impossible.
02:33We're going to save our country.
02:35The most important thing we have to save.
02:37When you see Russian ships floating essentially off the coast of
02:40Miami, if you think, off the coast of Florida, how did that happen?
02:44And the fake news, look at all of them back there.
02:46The fake news doesn't even want to talk about it, because it makes my
02:49life.
02:50Putin would not be doing that if I were president.
02:53And I had a very good relationship, but I had a tough relationship.
02:56You know, I ended the pipeline going all over Europe, the Russian
02:59pipeline, called Nord Stream 2.
03:01He wouldn't be doing it.
03:03And I will tell you, the most important thing we have to do, we have to
03:06save our country, because our country is in trouble.
03:09We have a chance, a real chance, at World War III.
03:12And, you know, we have less than five months now.
03:15Actual voting starts in North Carolina, if you take a look.
03:19That's going to be on the 6th of September.
03:2222nd of September is Pennsylvania.
03:24So it's not even November 5th, which will go down as the most important
03:28day, most important election, but the most important day in the history
03:31of our country.
03:32It's going to have two things.
03:34I'm going to stop at your restaurant the next time, and you're going to
03:36give me the greatest lunch you've ever served, because I heard you do
03:39great steak.
03:40So we'll do that.
03:42Okay?
03:43And the other thing, tell your waiters and waitresses and anybody else
03:49getting tips, because a lot of people get tips, car attendants and
03:54tatties and a lot of different people get tips, we are not going to tax
03:59tips.
04:00The tax immediately is coming off, because, as you know, the government
04:08under Biden just passed new regulations to really go after these people,
04:12and they're at a level like nobody's ever seen.
04:15It's like jail time stuff.
04:17So to go after your waiters and your waitresses and other people getting
04:21tips.
04:22So anybody getting tips, because there are certain tip industries, the
04:25car business has a lot of tipping going on.
04:28We are not going to be taxing tips.
04:30It's going to end immediately.
04:31So thank you, Omar.
04:33Great job.
04:34We'll see you at your restaurant.
04:36We'll see you at the restaurant.
04:37Absolutely.
04:38I'll be there waiting.
04:39Thank you, Omar.
04:40Pleasure.
04:41I'm not going to tell you a little more about the comfort of dinner.
04:43I just, let's listen to you get the meal.
