FULL Q&A: U.S. President Trump Warns Iran as Massive Escalation Remains Possible — AC15

[0:02] Any questions, please? [0:04] The Press. [0:05] Mr. President, in addition to this big announcement, [0:07] you've also been posting about Iran today, [0:08] opposing their latest demands. [0:10] You said this last round of talks was Iran's last chance [0:13] before decapitation. [0:15] So what now? [0:16] What comes next? [0:17] The President Biden will find out. [0:18] The Press. [0:19] Are you still a massive escalation? [0:20] Is that still on the table? [0:21] The President Biden will find out. [0:22] The President Biden will find out that ability [0:23] if we want to do that. [0:24] Yeah, you'll find out. [0:25] The Press. [0:25] The Press. [0:26] You said you're low-keying it with them. [0:26] The President Biden will find out that you're semi-negotiating. [0:28] What exactly does that mean? [0:28] The President Biden will find out that you're [0:30] they ask for reparations, you might say, [0:34] or they ask for money for the damage that we've done. [0:39] And I said, that's a good idea. [0:40] Well, we're going to ask for money for the damage [0:42] they've done over a 50-year period. [0:44] Whether you go SS Cole or whether you go all of the people [0:47] that were so badly hurt, so badly wounded or killed, [0:50] many thousands of people, and maybe damages for the 52,000 [0:55] protesters over the last four months that we killed in Iran. [0:59] We think they — their family should get damages [1:01] for killing their person or their child or mother, [1:04] father that we're protesting. [1:06] It's at least — it was 52,000 a month and a half ago. [1:10] So now what is it? [1:11] So if there's damages to be paid, [1:14] I think Iran should pay those damages. [1:16] The Press, Mr. President, on parallel — [1:17] Mr. President, are you frustrated with Senate Republicans [1:20] and Leader Thune for going home for recess [1:22] without passing the Save America Act? [1:23] The President Biden will find out that they should pass [1:25] voter ID. [1:26] I think they should pass proof of citizenship, [1:29] basically Save America — you know, Save America Act. [1:32] I think that should be something [1:34] that we should absolutely get. [1:36] Yeah. [1:37] The Press, Mr. President, you're — Mr. President, [1:39] you're a proud father. [1:40] Would you have vaccinated your children differently, [1:43] based on the recommendations that you've done today? [1:44] The President Biden will find out that you've done. [1:45] I took my children for five different vaccinations. [1:48] In other words, I broke it up. [1:50] The one visit where they just pump, you know, [1:53] what seemingly looks like gallons, where they pump so much in. [1:57] I took my — all of my children from day one. [1:59] I believed in this a long time — a long time ago. [2:03] I took them with my wife. [2:06] I took them through five different visits to the doctor. [2:12] Essentially, they get 20 percent each, [2:15] and I had no problem. [2:16] So it's inconvenient. [2:20] It's five stops. [2:21] But it's something that I think will have a huge impact on autism. [2:26] Yeah. [2:27] The Press, Mr. President, the anti-weaponization fund. [2:31] Do you think it's still alive at this point? [2:33] And are there any options that you're looking at to it, perhaps — [2:35] The President Biden will be up to Todd Blanch. [2:37] He was a new — and who will be, I think, a great Attorney General. [2:41] Yeah, please. [2:42] The Press, Mr. President, why does the establishment media [2:44] so often seem to be against even asking questions about vaccines? [2:48] The President Biden is amazing. [2:49] When you come up with a recommendation for a vaccine, [2:52] it could be the medical groups, the pharmaceutical groups. [2:55] I don't know, you know? [2:57] But it is amazing. [3:00] There's nothing that we lose with this. [3:02] If — the worst thing that would happen would be nothing happens. [3:07] There's — we're not going to lose anything. [3:10] At the same time, we could gain tremendous — [3:12] we could save hundreds of thousands of lives, millions of lives. [3:17] And I wish we could have done it a long time ago. [3:19] You know, we got stopped by court. [3:21] We had a court, I guess, in Massachusetts that stopped us very early on. [3:25] I've been — I believed in this for a long time. [3:27] So now we're getting it done. [3:29] And I think you're going to see tremendous — [3:31] potentially tremendous results. [3:33] Yeah, Dan, first of all. [3:34] The Press, Mr. President, a topic on manufacturing. [3:36] If I may, the Bureau of Labor Statistics put out some information [3:39] last week saying that U.S. manufacturing output of 4.6 percent [3:43] increased in the first quarter of 2026. [3:45] The Supply Management Institute, PMI, shows that manufacturing has expanded [3:50] for seven consecutive months. [3:51] You've talked about the American manufacturing renaissance for about 10 years at this point. [3:56] Given all the statistics and the investment that have come in, do you feel vindicated at this point? [4:01] The President Biden's office is doing record increases in the United States in manufacturing. [4:05] A lot of that has to do with the tariffs, because companies are coming in. [4:09] They're not able to sell their product unless they come in, because they have no tariff. [4:12] If they build their product, whether it's a car or something else, [4:15] if they make it in the United States, there is no tariff. [4:18] So they're coming in. [4:19] We have a record number of factories under construction. [4:22] Factories, plants, things as such. [4:26] Toyota just announced that they're building the largest — [4:29] the largest car plant — they make cars plant in the world, anywhere in the world. [4:37] They're leaving Mexico and they're coming to the United States. [4:40] Many, many car plants, AI, other — you know, they're opening. [4:45] I will say that they're leaving Canada, they're leaving Mexico, they're leaving Germany, [4:50] they're leaving Japan, they're leaving South Korea. [4:52] They're coming into the United States because they don't want to pay a 25 percent tariff on a car. [4:57] And they don't have to pay a tariff if they make it here. [4:59] So we have the largest number of plants ever being built in the United States right now. [5:05] Hard to believe, right? [5:06] Because if you listen to some of our past projects, [5:08] this would never be a manufacturing country again. [5:11] And these plants are going to be start opening up in about six months. [5:15] And I can only say that the next president [5:19] will get a lot of credit for what I've done. [5:20] It's — please remember, it was me, not them. [5:23] The Pressure. [5:23] The Pressure, I think I heard you say that the MMR vaccine for measles, mumps, and rubella is quite lethal. [5:29] Is there any evidence of that? [5:31] Can anyone in the room — [5:32] And what I've heard is that there are some people that say it is that way. [5:37] And I say, well, let's say there's a five percent chance of it. [5:42] Let's split it up. [5:44] Let's split it up. [5:45] Because they do say that, given individual — MMO — [5:49] that, given individual, there is no impact. [5:52] In fact, they've said how safe it seems to be. [5:55] But I've heard when you put them together, they can be explosive. [5:58] Yeah. [5:58] The Pressure, Mr. President, have you spoken with the new Attorney General or Jeanine Pirro about prosecuting Dr. Fauci? [6:04] I have not spoken to him about that, no. [6:06] The Pressure, Mr. President, Senators Rand Paul and Ron Johnson released some text messages from Anthony Fauci. [6:11] And it appears that as early as January 2021, they knew that there could possibly be complications with pregnant women and miscarriages tied to the COVID vaccine. [6:20] Yet the Biden administration helped officials. They didn't change their rhetoric. Your reaction? [6:24] Well, the Biden administration was a disaster in every way. [6:28] That would be just one way. But there have been a disaster in every single way. [6:33] It's unimaginable what they did in that — forget about weaponization. Forget even about — you know, as important as what you're saying — [6:41] so many of the open borders, the men and women's sports. They've just been — it's just been a horrendous disaster. [6:48] The highest inflation in history. And we're doing a great job. [6:52] Mr. President, thank you. [6:57] Unbundling the shots into more visits means more copays for families. [7:00] What's your recommendation for families that can't afford to keep paying for those visits? [7:04] Well, we're going to be working with them, and we're going to work with the families, [7:07] and we're going to make sure everything works out cost-wise very well. [7:10] Yeah, please. [7:11] The Pressure, Mr. President. [7:13] What recommendations do you have for Republicans, you know, heading into midterms right now? [7:17] And are Democrats, with the candidates they're putting forward, making life easier for — [7:20] Well, the one thing is, we have jihadists being elected all over the place. [7:24] We have this — whether it's communism, jihadism — it's — a lot of — a friend of mine called up. [7:30] He said, you know, really, you should use the word jihadist, because that's what's happening. [7:34] And I'm not sure that anybody — if you take a look at what happens in other countries, [7:39] I think that's not going to be necessarily the way we want to live. [7:42] But when you look at the radicalism and the craziness of the candidates and the stupidity [7:48] of what they're suggesting — let's get rid of the Supreme Court, let's get rid of the [7:52] presidency, let's get rid of the Senate — they want to get — you know, sometimes [7:56] I'd like to get rid of the Senate, too. [7:58] But I don't say it. [8:00] And I wouldn't do it. [8:01] But, you know, they want to get rid of the Senate. [8:03] They want to get rid of, ideally, the House, but they're thinking about maybe keeping the [8:08] House. [8:09] You know? [8:10] Isn't that nice? [8:11] These are people that have been not successful. [8:13] They're people that have been, in many cases, failures. [8:17] They come from other failed countries, and they come here and they tell us how to run our [8:21] country. [8:22] They come from places — like I won't mention, because I don't want to get myself into a controversy, [8:28] but they come from countries that are not great. [8:32] They come from, let's say, as an example, Somalia. [8:35] They come in and then they tell us how to — how our constitution, how our declaration of [8:40] independence, how it works — it doesn't work that way. [8:44] And they're not smart. [8:48] They have no aptitude. [8:50] They have nothing going, and they're telling us how to run our country. [8:53] And I just don't think it's going to happen. [8:55] I think that they start off — now, I may be wrong, but, you know, they start off with [8:59] a big disadvantage. [9:01] People don't want to have radical lunatics involved in running our country. [9:05] And that's what we have. [9:06] We have people that are saying things that are so great, now they're denying it. [9:09] Or they say, well, I've changed my mind. [9:11] They want to defund our police. [9:12] They want to terminate our military. [9:14] No military. [9:15] We don't want any military in our country. [9:17] We don't want our police to be paid anymore. [9:19] They want our police down to, like, almost nothing. [9:22] It's, like, doesn't make sense, right? [9:27] Mr. President, you give us an estimate of when you think the strait of war moves [9:32] will be part of the deal to open up more. [9:34] Mr. Well, it's open now. [9:35] We're taking a lot of shit. [9:36] It's open now. [9:37] Look, the only one that has control of the strait of Hormuz right now is the United States Navy. [9:42] We have a blockade that's been infallible. [9:44] It's a steel wall. [9:47] And we let people in that we want to let in. [9:49] And those people come in, and they've been coming in and they're going out. [9:53] So it's actually open now. [9:55] We do not let them go into Iran. [9:56] They're not admitted into the strait to go to Iran. [10:00] But it's open for others. [10:03] Now, a little bit complex because they will, on occasion, drop a mine. [10:09] We find the mines. [10:10] You know, we've mineswept the entire strait, as you probably maybe heard, maybe you didn't hear. [10:16] But we control the strait 100 percent. [10:21] Now, can they make trouble? [10:23] Yeah, they can make trouble. [10:24] But they're broke. [10:25] They have no money. [10:26] You know, Iran is broke, totally broke. [10:29] And they're not paying their soldiers. [10:32] They have inflation of 300 percent. [10:35] As of last night, I heard 300, 309 percent. [10:39] So we'll see what happens. [10:40] But they've been bad for it. [10:43] They say 47. [10:44] It's actually 50 now. [10:46] 47, they've been saying it for three years. [10:48] But for 50 years, they've been the bully of the Middle East. [10:51] What they've done is terrible. [10:52] They've killed hundreds of thousands of people. [10:56] They've killed people. [10:57] They've wounded and maimed people with the legs, the arms. [10:59] You know, with the, the roadside bomb is their bomb. [11:02] They're very proud of it. [11:04] And now they're paying a price. [11:06] Thank you very much, everybody. [11:08] The Pressure, President, has been calling Chairman Warsh? [11:11] The Pressure, President, has been calling Chairman Warsh occasionally? [11:14] What do you talk about the best? [11:15] The President, no. [11:16] Actually, the Wall Street Journal had a wrong story. [11:18] They said, he said I spoke to him. [11:19] No, I have tremendous respect for Kevin Warsh. [11:22] I've only spoken to him one time, briefly, a few days ago. [11:27] Just a conversation. [11:28] Look, he's going to do it. He's going to run it. [11:31] I know what he'd like to do, but he has to run it. [11:33] He's got a board. It's not only him. [11:35] If it was up to him, it would be different. [11:37] But he's got a board. But I've only — you know, [11:39] they said I speak to him all the time. [11:41] And I've spoken to him one time since his assumption, [11:44] since he took over. [11:46] And great conversation, but just a — he's a great guy. [11:50] You know, he's my pick. [11:52] And I'm going with him 100 percent. [11:55] But they made it sound like I live and breathe. [11:58] You know, I speak to Kevin all the time, every time. [12:01] I spoke to him one time. Okay. Thank you very much. [12:03] The Press. Thank you. Thank you. [12:05] Thank you, Press. Thank you. [12:07] The Press. Thank you. Thank you, sir. [12:09] Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir. [12:12] The President. Well, I put it out today in truth. [12:14] I do. I have a response. I put it out today in truth. [12:17] The Press. The Press. Thank you, Press. [12:19] The relationship is very good. Yeah. Thank you. [12:21] The Press. Thank you. Thank you, guys. [12:22] Thank you. Thank you. [12:23] The Press. Thank you, sir. Thank you. [12:25] The Press. Thank you, Press. Quickly. [12:27] Come on, guys. Thank you.
