Trump Asks Pittsburgh Penguins Owner Ron Burkle to Help Renegotiate NAFTA

‘You are not on the other side of NAFTA Ron, are you?’

TRUMP: “Now I want to proudly welcome the Pittsburgh Penguins owners. First of all, he's a friend of mine for a long time. He’s a great, great negotiator. Ron, how about negotiating some of our horrible trade deals that they’ve made? Here’s what I want, I want to get him. Oh, I would love to have Ron Burkle. It's -- and it’s great to have you, Ron. But I really mean that if you want to get involved in negotiating NAFTA, I like it, because we are renegotiating NAFTA, Ron. Of course he may not like that because maybe least on the other side. That’s what’s happening, that's why it’s so hard to redo these trade deals. Because there's so many on the other -- you are not on the other side of NAFTA, Ron, are you?"
BURKLE: "I am not."
