Watch: Logan Paul Stunned by Gift from Trump Before Massive Interview - 'We're Gangsters!'

Share

Influencer and podcaster Logan Paul interviewed former President Donald Trump on Wednesday for his podcast, “Impaulsive,” which is set to be released on Thursday.

While the full episode could become one of the most viewed on Youtube, both Trump and Paul have posted clips of their meetup to X.

Trump decided to take the opportunity to gift Paul and co-host Mike Majlak with their own MAGA hats and shirts, emblazoned with the mugshot from his August 2023 arrest in Fulton County, Georgia, and captioned, “Never Surrender.”

Paul asked Trump, “Is this your mugshot?”

Trump responded, “Yeah, can you believe it?”

Paul could be heard through laughs responding, “No way. We’re Gangsters!” as Trump poked fun at the situation, saying, “This is what we’re reduced to.”

“Elvis had [a mugshot]. Frank Sinatra had one, but we’ve eclipsed them.”

The two also posted a face-off to promote the episode, with Paul’s WWE United States Championship belt between them.

As the episode will surely be all about the 2024 election and Trump’s opponent — President Joe Biden — Paul posted a clip in which he invited Biden to come on the show as a guest.

Trump stated, “Yeah, I think [Biden] should. You know what chance you have of getting him on? I’d say less than one percent.”

While Trump has been one of — if not the — most hilarious president, the greater significance of the interview is his reach with this appearance ahead of November.

“Impaulsive” is a massive podcast currently sitting at 4.62 million subscribers on Youtube.

Paul isn’t just known for his work as a podcaster; he is also a WWE superstar and co-founder of Prime Hydration.

As Paul’s audience is younger, Trump has the opportunity to reach a demographic of Gen Z voters who may find themselves casting their first ever ballots in November, so it was a wise decision by Trump to make this appearance.

Anyone following the election cycle can’t deny the former president has become adept at staying relevant since leaving office in 2020.

Aside from left-wing media outlets helping him in this goal with around the clock news coverage and President Biden doing the same by oddly blaming every failure during his term on his predecessor, Trump still makes constant appearances in non-political realms to court the vote.

For instance, readers need only watch UFC pay-per-view events to see Trump sitting cage side with UFC President Dana White.

And these appearances seem to be paying off, with Trump leading in the polls nationally and even closing the gap with specific demographics, like black voters and younger voters.

While polls are just one measure of election prospects, Trump’s appearance with Paul couldn’t hurt his chances with young voters.


A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:

 

“We don’t even know if an election will be held in 2024.” Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. 

 

Former Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn recently made that comment to Floyd Brown, founder of The Western Journal. 

 

And if the leftists and the elites get their way, that’s exactly what will happen — no real election, no real choice for the Electoral College, and no real say for the American people. 

 

The Western Journal is fighting to keep that from happening, but we can’t do it alone.

 

We work tirelessly to expose the lying leftist media and the corrupt America-hating elites.

 

But Big Tech’s stranglehold is now so tight that without help from you, we will not be able to continue the fight. 

 

The 2024 election is literally the most important election for every living American. We have to unite and fight for our country, otherwise we will lose it. And if we lose the America we love in 2024, we’ll lose it for good. Can we count on you to help? 

 

With you we will be able to field journalists, do more investigative work, expose more corruption, and get desperately needed trStephen A. Smith Lights Up Analyst Over WNBA Delusion, Caitlin Clark Jealousy - 'Who Talks About the WNBA?!'uth to millions of Americans.
