But reflecting on the US election, he said he had a 'very clear' choice last November, and that was to vote for Trump instead of for Kamala Harris .

Trump is one of those guys where he’s got a vast history and a huge background. He’s been in entertainment. He’s been in big business, politics.

'He needs that opposition to bounce off of. He needs that competitive motivation or something,' he said.
