How Lara Trump talked about Hegseth: “Secretary Hegseth is devoted to restoring a warrior culture at the DoD, ensuring our fighters are at the top of their game and ready for anything, and as we saw recently with Operation Midnight Hammer in Iran, he is accomplishing that goal. … We all miss you on our screens all the time. … Well, we are wishing you great success. Good luck with everything. We're all watching. We're all so proud.”

A real Lara Trump question: “After that military success in Iran. I wanted to find out what it was really like behind-the-scenes. So maybe walk us through what you can of this mission. Why it was so significant, symbolically and tactically overall, because it was so impressive, I think, to the entire world.”

How Hegseth talked about Donald Trump: “I wish everybody could have an opportunity at the Cabinet level to watch how President Trump operates, how he truly puts America first in every scenario, and looks at problem sets from a totally different direction. … Watching President Trump make those decisions reveals, yet again, the core that everybody knows and loves about him, which is he puts America and Americans first.”

How Lara Trump talked about Kennedy: “You are arguably the most consequential HHS Secretary, maybe in American history. … We're hopeful that that's exactly what the next four years brings us here at HHS.”

A real Lara Trump question: “Whether it's the food supply, whether it's vaccines, a lot of these spaces have felt like for so long, we're not supposed to talk about them, we're not supposed to address them. You've sort of blown the doors off of all of that. And I know I hear from parents all the time. You must hear this from a lot of parents.”

How Kennedy talked about Donald Trump: “I'm very grateful to the President, you know, he's allowed me to populate this agency with extraordinary scientists. … My uncle used to say that you could not ever find peace if you could not put yourself into the shoes of your adversary. And I think that's what President Trump tries to do. And you know, I respect him enormously for that. And you know, I'm very -- I'm very proud to work for him, because I think he's got a vision that looks over the horizon. He's looking at what happens to kids in this country. He's thinking about our children and what they're going to face. … I thank God that we have a president in the White House that is not going to let our country go in that direction.”

How Lara Trump talked about Loeffler: “From Wall Street to Main Street, President Trump has promised prosperity, and as his big, beautiful vision becomes reality, the mom and pop shops we know and love will be relieved of a tremendous tax burden, face less red tape and be better positioned to grow. Enter Small Business Administrator, Kelly Loeffler, who's been all over the country talking with business owners about how to make their lives easier, and I got to join her in my hometown of Wilmington, North Carolina to find out for myself.”

A real Lara Trump question: “I think it's so nice to see how many patrons all of these small businesses are starting to have. And I know that between the months of March and April, we saw us actually slash our trade deficit in half, which means that Americans are now actually doing what we want to see happen. We're actually buying from American companies, and we're exporting more than we're importing, which is fantastic.”

How Loeffler talked about Donald Trump: “Small businesses are grateful for President Trump, fighting for fair trade. … It's such a great honor to serve in President Trump's administration. … I know what small businesses go through every single day to make this country work, to make ours the greatest in the world, and President Trump is fighting for small businesses through fair trade, through deregulation, through low taxes.”

How Lara Trump talked about Ratcliffe: “At the heart of that effort is the CIA, newly rebuilt, retooled and ready to take off the gloves. Director John Ratcliffe understands the stakes. He is focused on intelligence, not politics; mission, not media narratives; and he is dead set on restoring America's edge before it's too late. … He is rooting out bad actors and restoring the core mission, protecting Americans and putting National Security first. The era of a corrupt and politicized CIA is over, and the men and women devoting their lives to our country are being celebrated once again.”

A real Lara Trump question: “You talked about wanting to eliminate what you call well-documented politicization of this agency. So what did you find that led you to say that, and what have you done to ensure that that's no longer happening?” 

How Ratcliffe talked about Donald Trump: “Every weekend, I come in and I brief President Trump on the success that we've had on his behalf. And as you know, he has a history of being successful against terrorists, against ISIS, and against terrorist regimes like Iran. … My legacy will be whatever President Trump's legacy is, and so it's to help him be successful. The opportunity that I have, Lara, for all the things that we've just talked about, the immense capabilities of this place and the people that allow this place to accomplish so much, it is my job to make sure that we apply that to President Trump's priorities, whatever they may be and however they may change.”

How Lara Trump talked about Miller: “Stephen Miller has been at the President's side for a decade, and now in his role as Deputy Chief-of-Staff and Homeland Security adviser, he's working to make President Trump's vision for a safer and stronger America the reality. … But beyond the policy fight, Stephen's mission is personal, rooted in family, legacy and the kind of country he wants his kids to grow up. … Stephen's bond with President Trump is one that's helping to shape the future of America for generations to come.”

A real Lara Trump question: “You have these activist judges out there who are issuing these nationwide injunctions. What are you guys doing to fight back and make sure that his agenda is moving forward?”

How Miller talked about Donald Trump: “So President Trump, again, I've been so blessed, so fortunate to be able to watch him as a leader up front, close and personal for 10 years as he built the MAGA movement from nothing, from scratch. … I've never seen any leader more determined and resolved to do the right thing. Whenever anyone brings him a problem set, he always just says, we need to do what's right for the American people. … The first term of President Trump was the most successful presidency that we have ever seen. But the second term is to find even the highest expectations the American people have ever had.”

How Lara Trump talked about Kellogg: “So what does it take to bring two enemies to the table and find a way forward when trust is in such short supply? That's where General Keith Kellogg comes in. As Special Envoy for Ukraine, he is on the front lines of difficult negotiations to push back against Putin's aggression. … We're appreciative of all you are doing and wishing you the best of luck in all of your negotiations for peace.”

A real Lara Trump question: “President Trump is very clear. He wants to put America first and the American people first. Where do we stand on a policy like that?”

How Kellogg talked about Donald Trump: “He's done more in 120 days than President Biden did in 1,211 days. … I have great faith in your father-in-law. I mean, I think if anybody can do this, it is President Trump. … Everything he does has the American people in his thoughts. I know that, I've seen it. You know that. And I think that's why the American people really do love him. I think his instincts are off the charts good. I mean, they really are. … They've got a great commander-in-chief who's always going to have their back.”

How Lara Trump talked about Blair: “President Trump's agenda is moving forward and fast. One man helping to drive that unprecedented pace and unwavering focus is White House Deputy Chief-of-Staff, James Blair. He has been at the heart of this administration's strategy to get critical legislation across the finish line, and I sat down with James to see how they're pushing past the chaos to get things done and what comes next in the fight to put Americans, not the Washington elite, back in charge.”

A real Lara Trump question: “It feels like, James, the first six months are just going to be historic in so many different ways. But what is coming up? What are you guys working on? I feel like every time there's an announcement made from this White House, it's very exciting.”

How Blair talked about Donald Trump: “I've said before publicly, it's the rest of us just trying to keep up with him. I mean, for a person at any age to have the stamina and the energy that he does is very impressive, so it's even more impressive, obviously, that he's a grandfather. … He has the majority of the country behind him, and there's only so much they can do. … We're behind a leader that very much knows what he believes and very much knows what he wants to accomplish.”

How Lara Trump talked about Johnson: “In the House, Speaker Mike Johnson, is leading not just with strength, but with faith. He is uniting conservatives around our core principles and refusing to bow to the radical left. His leadership is steady, and that's exactly what it takes to move the House forward and keep President Trump's legislative agenda on track.”

A real Lara Trump question: “We are just on the other side of 100 days of Donald Trump as the 47th president. So give me an idea of some of the things the House has done to try and push forward the Trump agenda, because you guys have been working hard.”

How Johnson talked about Trump: “We have been working hard, trying to keep up with the President. … He comes in hot because he was ready to serve and ready to deliver and had great ideas in all of these areas. … I think we have a chance to do that to save this Republic, and President Trump is exactly the right leader at the right time to get that done.”

How Lara Trump talked about Thune: “Over in the Senate, Majority Leader John Thune is wasting no time, known as the fastest man in Congress, he is making sure the chamber is firing on all cylinders for the American people, whether it's confirming the President's nominees or pushing forward policies that put America first. Thune is refusing to let the Democrats slow things down.”

A real Lara Trump question: “Talk about some of the accomplishments that you're proudest of as Senate Majority Leader in the first 100 now plus days of the Trump administration.”

How Thune talked about Trump: “We want to be good partners to President Trump and make sure that he has the people he wants. … He's enormously influential in both the House and the Senate and when it comes time for tough votes, and you know, sometimes there's a certain art form to getting everybody -- pulling the same direction, but he has a gift for that.”

How Lara Trump talked about Whatley: “Under his leadership, the RNC isn't just preparing for the midterms, it is building a foundation for Republican dominance in 2028 and beyond. He knows, growing our majority requires more than just a strong ground game. It's about opening up that big tent, making sure our message is heard from coast-to-coast. … I have full confidence in Chairman Michael Whatley to continue our efforts well into 2026 and 2028, but I figured I'd let him tell you for himself.”

A real Lara Trump question: “We saw such a surge of young voters coming over and voting for President Trump. How do we keep them in this party and make sure that they're going to vote in ‘26 and ‘28 and beyond?”

How Whatley talked about Trump: “You know, with the President, we're here to support his agenda. We're here to support his candidates. Obviously we want to win in the midterms. That's going to be absolutely essential for it. … Donald Trump remade the Republican Party in what has the potential to really be a long term party as long as we listen to the voters.”

How Lara Trump talked about Lutnick: “So will prices go up? Will jobs come back to the U.S. from overseas? What will happen next? It is time to ask the expert, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick.” 

A real Lara Trump question: “I just have to ask you, do you think there would have been any other president in our lifetime who would have the guts to do this? Because President Trump acknowledges, look, this is tough stuff, no one else has been able to do something like this. Would any other president have been able to do it?”

How Lutnick talked about Donald Trump: “He is totally in the driver's seat. … This is where Donald Trump shines in a way that no one else in this world ever shines. … He is really fighting for my children and my grandchildren, all of our grandchildren right now. This is what he is doing, he is fixing trade with America. He is going to launch our ranchers, our farmers, our fishermen. Manufacturing is going to come back to America. This is what needed to happen to America. … Thank God, Donald Trump is in the White House because he is the only president who would ever take this on and fix it for America.”

How Lara Trump talked about Wiles: “When President Donald Trump was elected for the second time, questions swirled about the unsung hero behind his campaign, and then when she was tapped for her role in the White House, there was even more intrigue about the mysterious political mind working in lockstep with the President on the MAGA agenda. Well, tonight, she's sitting down for her first ever interview. … Wherever you see President Trump, you will see her right behind, making sure every I is dotted and every T is crossed.”

A real Lara Trump question: “It seems like everything is running smoothly. And I wonder, from your perspective as White House Chief-of-Staff, do you find that to be the case, and are you responsible for some of that?”

How Wiles talked about Donald Trump: “It's less about a person and more about a mindset and people, starting with the President being so comfortable and so sure of what we want to do and accomplish. So it's less about anybody, me or anybody else, and more about a team that really believes in the mission and the man. … We know where our direction is. We know, you know, we know who true north is, and every day, all day, every day, seven days a week, that's what we're trying to get accomplished. … I think he's a better leader now. So I don't know that I had anything to do with that, but I think the country benefits from it.”

How Lara Trump talked about Burgum: “And leading the charge to unlock our nation's incredible resource potential is Interior Secretary Doug Burgum. Burgum isn't just making waves, he's making history. With trillions of dollars in untapped energy sitting beneath our feet and off our shores, he is taking a business minded approach, pitching our federal lands and water as assets on America's balance sheet, it is a game changing vision. … Burgum is also making it clear, conservation and responsible stewardship are at the heart of his mission.”

A real Lara Trump question: “Well you bring me to one of my President Trump's favorite lines from the campaign trail, drill, baby drill. As interior secretary, how are you helping him facilitate that and actually deliver on that promise?”

How Burgum talked about Donald Trump: “To be able to team up with President Trump and now work for him. It's like think of the best professional football team that's ever been created, and President Trump is the team owner, and then he's also the manager. … A priority of President Trump is to make sure we have the appropriate celebration for the most amazing country in the world, and the National Parks is going to play a key role of that.”

How Lara Trump talked about Waltz: “The message is simple, if you threaten American lives, you will be handled accordingly. That's peace through strength and that's leadership. And I got the chance to sit down with National Security adviser, Mike Waltz, to break down that mission.”

A real Lara Trump question: “This is kind of an amazing time in American history, and I just want to get your take as National Security adviser, where do we stand now with President Trump back in the White House, versus where things were from a National Security perspective, under the last administration?”

How Waltz talked about Donald Trump: “President Trump's leadership, his strength, frankly, the respect and fear that he often and does instill in our enemies has had what we're calling the Trump effect. … We are going to get this mess cleaned up, pick up where we left off, and keep driving his vision as the peacemaker in chief for the world. … President Trump realizes this is the competition of this century. … They should sleep well with President Trump in the Oval Office, behind the Resolute Desk, and the amazing team he put around him. … I mean, you know what he sacrificed to do this job. He almost sacrificed his life to do this job, and yet kept going, and we're just going to follow his lead.”

How Lara Trump talked about Scavino: “From the early days of the 2016 campaign to the toughest fights inside and outside the White House, Scavino has been at President Trump's side in victories and in challenges and through it all, their mission has never wavered, to fight for this country and the people who believe in its promise.”

A real Lara Trump question: “I feel like one of the things I have noticed is that this time around, it's not just that the President is trying to, you know, do the job for the American people and work hard. He's enjoying himself this time around.”

How Scavino talked about Donald Trump: “He's just a powerful leader, a powerful presence when he walks into a room, and everybody out there that's been in a room with President Trump will know what I mean, even before he was President. But to take the reins to be the President of the United States and lead the greatest nation on Earth and what he has done and what he has accomplished over those years, again, I go back to the journey of a lifetime, because the guy fights each and every day to put America first and to make America great again. … After the conclusion of this term, he will go down as the greatest president of all time. … I think President Trump's going to do a phenomenal job in bringing America together. We've just got to keep up the good fight, fighting for what we believe in, for our children, for our grandchildren, our great grandchildren and future generations to come.”
