CNBC HOST: Donald, you see the OPEC news this morning? Venezuela wants OPEC to stop pumping more, overproducing, they are saying, that, because Saudi Arabia is pumping above the limits it’s supposed to be doing to help us out a little bit and Venezuela is complaining and right now you’re looking at oil prices at about back around $82.
DONALD TRUMP: That’s still very high, Becky, they should be at $30 if you look at free market. I think Saudi Arabia is doing Obama a big favor. Look, you have to do be a favor, I have to get elected, you can’t do it like you’ve been doing the last three years driving it up to $150 because that’s where it’s going and I think Saudi Arabia is doing Obama a big fat favor. I think he asked for the favor and prices are coming down, but also the economy’s going bad so maybe it won’t help that much. but as soon as — assuming if Obama got elected, you’re going to see something with oil like you’ve never seen before, it will go through the roof. The favor will be repaid many times over.
