TFG: 'In the history of our country, nothing like me has ever happened'

Former President Donald Trump pontificated about his place in US history during a wide-ranging, hour-long interview on the Nelk Boys "Full Send Podcast" on Wednesday.

The Canadian and American YouTube pranksters asked Trump if being a billionaire "and owning real estate" or being president gave him more power. Trump didn't answer the question directly, but instead expounded on his unique place in US presidential history.

"So, in the history of our country, nothing like me has ever happened," Trump said. "I don't say that positive, negative. You know, you've never had a businessman."

Trump went on to explain that most US presidents have a background in politics or the military.

Just as nothing in the history of the world had happened before like what happened to Hiroshima and Nagasaki prior to 1945.

True... True. Prior to 2016, we'd never before had anything like you happen. It wasn't a good thing. We wish it'd never happened, and hope it never happens again.
