'You couldn't sell anything': Trump jokes about his power; fantasizes about 'banning fishing until…'

Donald Trump told guests at a Rose Garden dinner for outdoor enthusiasts and industry executives that he is so powerful as president that he could ban them from fishing. Trump made the quip during the Thursday evening event at the White House, where he signed executive orders aimed at expanding hunting and fishing opportunities and reversing certain Biden-era restrictions. One of the executives in attendance was Johnny Morris, the billionaire founder of Bass Pro Shops. Trump told his audience that his executive orders would help expand the fishing season and help those industries participating in the activity. “That means you can sell a lot of fishing rods, Johnny. You’re going to sell a lot of rods. I could have made it so you couldn’t sell. You couldn’t sell anything. I could have banned fishing,” Trump mused.
