PORTSMOUTH, NEW HAMPSHIRE: Former president Donald Trump offered 'Fox & Friends' co-host Brian Kilmeade an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at his campaign before the New Hampshire primary took place on January 23.

Bringing the co-host onboard his private aircraft, Trump Force One, ahead of a rally, the current GOP frontrunner claimed, "I think we're going to be in very good shape."

"We had a great, a great time in Iowa. We broke every record in the book, and there were beautiful and fantastic people. And here (in New Hampshire), we have fantastic people. You have them all over the country. It's all the same. We have unbelievable patriots all over the country, and they want to see our country come back."

A look at Donald Trump's airplane

While making a last appeal to voters, Trump granted viewers of the show a glimpse into his opulent lifestyle. He guided Kilmeade through cream-colored seats, a spacious flat-screen TV, a living room, and a distinct workspace on the plane.

"I'm a worker, right? I'm not a pleasure guy. I'm a worker guy, and it's a tremendous plane for that. It's got great speed, and all that energy gets us to where we're going on time," he stated.

Donald Trump claims people are 'enthusiastic' about his candidacy

The business tycoon chalked up his claim to the poor performance of the incumbent President Joe Biden.

"I will say we had tremendous enthusiasm for one and two (2016 and 2020). Far more for this one than I've ever seen before. You have to see the crowds we're getting. We have never seen enthusiasm like this," said Trump.

"I think a big part of that is they like the job I did, but a big part of that is how bad this administration has been. This is the worst president in the history of our country. This man is grossly incompetent, and he's going to get us into World War III," he continued.

Running for the third straight time, Trump shared that he himself is as enthusiastic about the current race as the ones before, adding that he shed 15-20 pounds ahead of the 2024 campaign.

While he joked that his plane was nicer, the former President expressed his wish to return to Air Force One. "Air Force One is still Air Force One, and it represents something very special."
