>> Jimmy: HOW ARE YOU?

>> I'M DOIN' GREAT, THANKS SO

MUCH FOR HAVING ME.

>> Jimmy: THANKS FOR COMING,

GREAT TO HAVE YOU HIRE.

Y

YOU WEREN'T A POLITICIAN, NOW

YOU ARE A POLITICIAN.

>> DON'T SAY THAT.

>> Jimmy: LIKE IF YOU WERE TO DO

MAGIC, YOU'D BE A MAGICIAN,

RIGHT?

>> YEAH.

>> Jimmy: SO WHAT DID YOUR WIFE

SAY WHEN YOU TOLD HER, DARLING,

I, I KNOW I'M SUCCESSFUL IN

BUSINESS, BUT I WOULD LIKE TO

RUN FOR PRESIDENT?

>> PRESIDENT OF WHAT?

>> Jimmy: SHE SAID THAT?

>> YEAH, IT TOOK A FEW MONTHS

FOR HER TO REALIZE I WAS

SERIOUS.

>> Jimmy: SHE THOUGHT WERE YOU

JOKING?

OR SHE JUST THOUGHT --

>> SHE THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING

THAT MIGHT PASS, SHALL WE SAY.

>> Jimmy: UH-HUH.

I SEE.

AND IS SHE TOTALLY ON BOARD NOW?

>> OH, NOW SHE'S ON BOARD.

NOW THAT I'M AT FIFTH IN THE

POLLS.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

>> Jimmy: DOES IT, DO YOU FEEL

LIKE IT MAKES YOU EVEN MORE

SEXUALLY ATTRACTIVE TO HER?

>> WOW, IT WAS AN AWFULLY HIGH

BAR TO BEGIN WITH.

[ LAUGHTER ]

>> Jimmy: WHY DID RIGHT FOR

PRESIDENT?

WHY NOT START WITH

REPRESENTATIVE OR SENATOR OR

SOMETHING LIKE THAT?

>> I SPENT SEVEN YEARS RUNNING

AN ORGANIZATION THAT HELPED

CREATE THOUSANDS OF JOBS IN THE

MIDWEST AND SOUTH, AND

UNFORTUNATELY, I BELIEVE THESE

TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES ARE A LOT

FASTER THAN WE HAVE TIME FOR.

ROBOT TRUCKS MAY BE ON OUR

HIGHWAYS IN FIVE TO TEN YEARS.

SO IF I BIDED MY TIME AND TRIED

TO CLIMB THE RANKS, IN MY VIEW,

WE JUST DIDN'T HAVE THAT KIND OF

TIME.

>> Jimmy: YOUR FEAR IS THAT ALL

THOSE TRUCKERS WILL BE OUT OF

WORK BECAUSE WE'LL HAVE THESE

ROBOT TRUCKS THAT DRIVE ON THEIR

OWN.

>> UPS JUST INVESTED, AND

DRIVING A TRUCK IS THE MOST

COMMON JOB IN 29 STATES.

THERE ARE 3.5 MILLION TRUCKER.

AND THE HOTELS AND DINERS RELY

ON TRUCKERS GETTING OUT AND

HAVING A

HAVING A MEAL.

>> Jimmy: IT MUST BE WIRED, ONE

OF YOUR PRIMARY ISSUES IS

SOMETHING SO SCARY BUT SOUNDS SO

AWESOME, ROBOT TRUCKS, YOU KNOW?

>> CERTAINLY, AS A KID, YOU'D

BE, OOH, ROBOT TRUCKS.

>> Jimmy: I'M STILL LIKE THAT.

>> A LOT OF IT IS WE HAVE TO

MAKE OURSELVES EXCITED ABOUT

PROGRESS.

AND RIGHT NOW, ROBOT TRUCKS

COULD BE EXCITING FOR EVERYONE

IF EVERYONE FELT LIKE WE

PARTICIPATING IN THE GAINS OF

THE 21st CENTURY ECONOMY INSTEAD

OF BEING LEFT BEHIND.

>> Jimmy: IS YOUR SOLUTION THAT

WE DON'T HAVE ROBOT TRUCKS?

>> I'M PRO INNOVATION, BUT WE

NEED TO START SHARING THE

BOUNTY.

>> Jimmy: I THINK EVERY TEENAGER

IS EXCITED ABOUT THAT $1,000 A

MONTH.

>> IF EVERY AMERICAN GOT OUR

TINY FAIR SHARE OF EVERY AMAZON

SALE, EVERY GOOGLE AD, WE COULD

AFFORD $1,000 PER AMERICAN PER

MONTH, WHICH WOULD HELP US ALL

TRANSITION IN THE 21st CENTURY

ECONOMY AND CREATE A NEW WAY

FORWARD, NOT JUST FOR THE

18-YEAR-OLDS BUT THE

65-YEAR-OLDS STRUGGLING TO MAKE

ENDS MEET AND RETIRE WITH

DIGNITY.

>> Jimmy: YOUR IDEA IS THAT

THESE COMPANIES ARE MAKING MONEY

USING OUR INFORMATION, SELLING

OUR INFORMATION AND THAT WE

SHOULD GET SOME OF THAT MONEY.

>> OUR DATA IS NOW WORTH MORE

THAN OIL, AND WE'RE NOT SEEING A

DIME OF THAT.

AMAZON IS A TRILLION DOLLAR TECH

COMPANY THAT LITERALLY PAID ZERO

IN TAXES.

WE NEED TO GET THE AMERICAN

PEOPLE OUR FAIR SHARE OF THE

INCREDIBLE WEALTH THAT AMAZON

AND THE OTHER TECH COMPANIES ARE

GENERATING.

>> Jimmy: DO YOU THINK HAVING A

PAYMENT OF $1,000 A MONTH, THE

FEAR FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE IS IT

WILL DISINCENTIVIZE THEM TO

WORK.

>> THERE ARE TWO GROUPS SHOWN TO

WORK LESS WHEN YOU GET KIND OF

MONEY.

NEW MOMS WHO SPEND MORE TIME

WITH THEIR KIDS AND TEENAGERS

WHO SPEND MORE TIME GRADUATING

FROM HIGH SCHOOL.

I DON'T THINK ANY OF US WILL BE

UPSET ABOUT THOSE SITUATIONS.

EVERYONE WORKS AT THE SAME LEVEL

AND IN SOME CASES WORK MORE.

>> Jimmy: AT WHAT AGE WOULD WE

START GETTING THE THOUSAND

DOLLARS A MONTH?

>> WE'D ALL HAVE A FINANCIAL LIT

R

LITERACY CLASS.

DO YOU THINK KIDS WILL START

PAYING ATTENTION IN CLASS IF

THEY KNOW THEY'RE GOING TO GET

THE MONEY?

>> Jimmy: NO.

>> ONE THING, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO

TEACH ONE FINANCIAL LITERACY IF

THEY DON'T HAVE THE MONEY.

>> Jimmy: WILL DONALD TRUMP GET

$1,000 A MONTH, TOO?

>> IF HE SIGNS UP FOR IT.

>> Jimmy: OH.

HE'LL SIGN UP FOR IT.

YEAH.

>> HE DEFINITELY WILL, YOU'RE

RIGHT.

THE WAY WE FUND THIS IS THROUGH

A VALUE-ADDED TAX THAT WOULD

GENERATE MILLIONS, TENS OF

MILLIONS FROM THE DONALD TRUMPS

OF THE WORLD.

IF WE'RE A TRYING TO SEND THEM

$1,000 A MONTH TO REMIND THEM

THEY'RE AN AMERICAN, IT'S A WIN

FOR EVERYONE.

>> Jimmy: DO YOU WORRY THAT JEFF

SUC

ZUCKER AND ELON MUSK WILL TARGET

YOU?

>> THEY KNOW IT'S BAD FOR

EVERYONE IF PEOPLE FEEL LIKE THE

21st CENTURY ECONOMY IS LEAVING

THEM BEHIND.

>> Jimmy: IS ELON MUSK AN

AMERICAN?

>> HE IS NOT, BUT I THINK --

>> Jimmy: OKAY, OH, MY GOODNESS.
