"Your home is a little like bit like Versailles," Levin remarks at one point, referring to the stunning palace outside Paris built by France's Louis XIV. But Trump's tower is of a gawdy opulence of a different sort than the stately chateau and its expansive gardens that French kings once called home.In the program, he said that if elected, he wouldn't change the decor in the White House -- where he is due to take office on 20 January. "The White House is such a special place and it has such a special meaning for American people, especially," he says. "Nothing would change in the White House. The White House will remain the way it is."Trump's brother Fred died of alcoholism, leading him to swear off alcohol out of fear of becoming an addict himself. "I've never had a drink because of my brother," says Trump, who has banned not just alcohol but also drugs and cigarettes for his children. "I've been very tough on my children with respect to that'Win for the country'Speaking of his late father, Trumps says he "was very proud of me, of the success I had." As for his wife Melania -- his third -- Trump praises her as a "great mother." "She's very traditional. She'd rather stay at home than, you know, anything else," he adds."I think that's good." Although his desk is covered in piles of magazines with pictures of himself on the cover, the president-elect denies being driven by ego. "Above all, I want to make life good for a lot of people, not just myself," he says."I've won so much. I've won enough for myself. "I want to win for the country now. I hate seeing, Harvey, what's happening to our country."
