At one point in the podcast, Trump touched on Vice President Kamala Harris and her claim that he opposed in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments.
Trump dismissed Harris' accusation, stating, "I came out strongly in favor of IVF. [Kamala Harris] has an ad on that I'm against IVF. She knows it's untrue."
“She lied about many things and she's a liar. There should be some kind of a rule when they know it's a lie, you can't do a commercial on it," Trump added.
"I have a hard time doing it to them because I'm basically a truthful person." Schulz, finding the comment amusing, laughed and responded, "What does that mean?" as Trump continued to speak about Harris, reports OK! Magzine.
