The 36 most outlandish lines from Donald Trump's interview with Sean Hannity
Whoa boy.
In an attempt to pre-but — and rob attention from — Wednesday night’s 4th Republican debate, Donald Trump did a town hall event with cheerleader Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday in Iowa.
It was, um, something. As I like to do when the former president speaks, I went through the transcript of the townhall — and pulled out the lines you need to see.

“Some bad things happen.”

“You know, I see Biden talking about, oh, MAGA, MAGA. MAGA means ‘Make America Great Again’. That's what it means.”
Glad we cleared that up.
“Right now, we're not a great country. We're a country in decline. We are a declining country. We're left out all over the world.”
