“Fox & Friends Weekend” hosts Rachel Campos-Duffy, Pete Hegseth and Will Cain interview former President Donald Trump on the upcoming presidential debate, the role of the vice president and the success of his previous term.
Former President Trump warned a second Biden term could bring the country to its knees, cautioning that four more years of the current administration could usher in a depression just like the one that struck the nation in 1929.
"If I don't win, you're going to have a depression like in 1929," he said during an exclusive sit-down interview with "Fox & Friends Weekend" co-hosts Rachel Campos-Duffy, Will Cain and Pete Hegseth.
"One of the greatest analysts on Wall Street, considered maybe the best, said the only reason the stock market's high is because they think Trump is going to win," he continued.

The GOP frontrunner's exclusive talk with Fox News aired in segments throughout Sunday's broadcast. During the talk, he discussed the nation's most pressing issues, including his recently guilty verdict on 34 counts of falsifying business records in a Manhattan courtroom, his plans if elected to a second term, the current state of the nation and trust in the government.
He slammed the trial as a "scam," reflected on his previous attorneys general and responded "yes" when asked if he would declassify certain files – including the 9/11, JFK and Epstein files – to restore some trust lost in American institutions.
