Iran blockade announcement, nuclear warning & NATO Criticism

[0:00] We have some tremendous numbers released economically on jobs and everything else, [0:06] and things are going very well. [0:07] How are we going to inspire homes, the president? [0:10] I would say it's holding well. [0:17] Their military is destroyed. [0:20] Their whole navy is underwater. [0:24] You know that? [0:25] 158 ships are gone. [0:27] Their navy is gone. [0:29] Most of their mine droppers are gone. [0:32] We have a lot of people, as you know, at 10 o'clock tomorrow, we have a blockade going into effect. [0:37] That will be 10 o'clock tomorrow. [0:39] Other nations are working so that Iran will not be able to sell oil, and that would be very effective. [0:47] But what we want to do is we want to – and again, we don't need it. [0:51] What we notice and what we see and what I think is maybe my idea, maybe not. [0:57] I don't know. [0:57] But there are many boats heading toward our country to fill up with oil and then go and take it. [1:04] So they're not going to go through the Hormone Strait. [1:07] And ultimately, that will be corrected. [1:10] But in the meantime, they're using us. [1:12] We have more oil because of Drill Baby Drill. [1:16] We have more oil than Russia and Saudi Arabia put together. [1:20] So if you look at Russia and Saudi Arabia, two big ones, we have much more oil than they have put together. [1:28] And what's happening is boats are coming over here, filling up. [1:32] We don't have to go through the Hormone Strait. [1:33] Can you give us an update, Mr. President, on the two pilots? [1:37] Are they in great condition? [1:39] They are in very good shape, and we're very proud of them, the two pilots. [1:43] Yeah. [1:44] I think Iran is in very bad shape. [1:53] I think they're very desperate. [1:56] We had a meeting that lasted 21 hours. [1:58] We understand the situation better than anybody, and Iran is in very bad shape. [2:03] And just so you understand, Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. [2:09] We will not have. [2:10] There is no way that they're going to get it. [2:13] They still want it. [2:14] And they made that clear the other night. [2:17] Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. [2:23] Oh, I don't know. [2:23] I don't care if they come back or not. [2:25] If they don't come back, I'm fine. [2:27] Their military is gone. [2:29] Their missiles are largely depleted. [2:32] The manufacturing capability for missiles and drones is largely defeated. [2:38] We've been very nice. [2:39] We haven't ripped down too many bridges. [2:41] We did one only because they broke their word. [2:44] They broke their promise. [2:45] And remember, their promise was that they were going to open the Hormones Strait. [2:52] They didn't do it. [2:53] They lied. [2:57] They're coming up, and they're helping. [2:59] We have many other countries. [3:02] You just have to see. [3:08] But ships are heading up to our country right now, empty, and they're going to go back filled [3:14] up with oil. [3:16] Why do you sell? [3:20] I don't think he's doing a very good job. [3:22] He likes crime, I guess. [3:24] He hit us. [3:26] Think of it. [3:27] He's worried about fear. [3:28] What about the fear when the ministers and the priests and all of those great people that [3:36] were arrested during COVID, and in many cases, they're outside 10 feet apart, and they [3:43] were arrested. [3:43] So we don't like it. [3:45] We don't like a pope that's going to say that it's OK to have a nuclear weapon. [3:50] We don't want a pope that says crime is OK in our cities. [3:54] I don't like it. [3:54] I'm not a big fan of Pope Leo. [3:56] He's a very liberal person, and he's a man that doesn't believe in stopping crime. [4:02] He's a man that doesn't think that we should be toying with a country that wants a nuclear [4:09] weapon so they can blow up the world. [4:11] I'm not a fan of Pope Leo. [4:17] About what? [4:24] Well, that's a very theoretical question. [4:27] I don't want to answer that. [4:33] Well, they're coming up. [4:35] They're going to be coming up. [4:36] But I'm very disappointed in NATO. [4:38] They didn't do this. [4:39] They weren't there for us. [4:41] We pay trillions of dollars for NATO, and they weren't there for us. [4:46] Remember what I said. [4:47] NATO was not there. [4:49] Now they want to come up, but there's no real threat anymore. [4:52] But NATO was not there for us. [4:55] Are you going to cut increase? [4:56] We'll see what happens. [4:58] But, you know, we spent trillions of dollars on NATO to help them guard really against Russia. [5:04] When you think of it, we're guarding against Russia. [5:07] And I've long thought it was a little ridiculous. [5:11] But we spent trillions of dollars doing it. [5:15] And I think that's going to be under very serious examination. [5:19] Thank you very much.
