RETA VAN SUSTEREN, FOX NEWS HOST: Right now, Donald Trump. You just heard him he went to Iowa. He ripped President Obama and blasted more than one potential GOP presidential candidate.

And DONALD TRUMP joins us. Good evening, Donald.

DONALD TRUMP, CEO, TRUMP GROUP (VIA PHONE): Hello, Greta.

VAN SUSTEREN: Well, two big verbal punches, one to Governor Romney and one to Governor Bush. And to Governor Romney, you said he is not a closer.

TRUMP: He is not a closer. He was not able to close the deal. He should have been able to. We had a president that was doing terribly, as bad as you are going to do, and he should have won. And many Republicans would have won. And he was not able to close the deal. And certainly, the Republicans cannot be so stupid as to give him a second crack because honestly he choked. He wasn't able to get it done. He should have been able to get it done. There is no excuse for it. And you cannot give that person a second chance, unfortunately.
