"We're lucky to have him out"

Appearing on Chris Salcedo’s radio show on Monday, Trump reacted to the news.

“He always wanted to be his father, but he wasn’t born with that kind of talent,” said Trump, referring to the late newsman Mike Wallace. “And we’re lucky to have him out.”

The former president claimed Wallace favored Biden and said he felt as though he was debating both of them at the same time.

“When I had the debate, I was debating him and Biden,” Trump said. “He was tougher. I was debating him and Biden. I said. ‘What is this? Am I debating two people or am I debating one?’”
