By the way, I looked at one hell of a beautiful ass before – Nicki Minaj
I hope Nicki wasn’t insulted, but we love Nicki. She’s been with us for a long time.
I said: I looked at his ass, and I’ve never done that with a man before. It’s true. Off the record, women yes, men no, OK.
We have a president that understands economics, first of all.
