Trump reacts to France protests in France, Macron's Iran war claims, and Ukraine-Russia negotiations

[0:11] nice trip to Kansas where we have a wonderful Senator Marshall. He's going to do very well, [0:17] I think. He's going to win. I won the state by many, many points. I love the people of [0:23] Kansas, and that's why I go there. So hopefully we'll have a great victory in Kansas, but [0:31] we'll know soon enough. I think he's going to do very well. Roger Marshall is one of [0:35] the finest people in government, as far as I'm concerned. [0:39] Mr. President, can we talk about, have you agreed to a trilateral? [0:42] The President is that you don't want to drive the Vladimir Putin away from the far [0:46] peace. What guarantee has he made you that he's willing to strike a far peace? [0:50] Well, you'll see soon enough, because I'm trying to get a hostage that [0:53] the country's been after for a long time, and before my time. And let's see what [1:01] happens. That'll be soon. We also have a very good situation with respect to Iran. He's laying off [1:08] Iran. It's nice, because we're hitting Iran very hard, as you know, and economically, [1:13] as well as militarily. And Russia has done nothing there that we can see. And I think [1:20] that's a very positive. And of course, we're negotiating with him on Ukraine. So I'm not looking [1:27] to break up negotiations right in the middle. And by the way, I have the right to do that at any time, [1:33] immediately. So if things don't work out, I can always do it. [1:36] What do you say to the Republicans who have been speaking out against these deals? [1:43] Well, I think when they find out what the deal is, they — I've had four of them call up, [1:50] because they only put out word last night. I'm in the midst of negotiating a deal. When you're [1:56] negotiating a deal, you don't do that to the people you negotiated. And the deal is Ukraine deal. [2:01] Also, I'm negotiating with them on Iran, because they've been very well-behaved on Iran. [2:07] Also, I'm negotiating with them on hostages. And I'm also negotiating on diesel. So when you — when [2:13] you do — look, that's my business. When you're negotiating, you don't do that. When I tell that to [2:18] Republicans that speak out — and there aren't many of them, because they have confidence in me — I'm the [2:24] one that got them there. I'm the one that's winning. I'm the one that's doing the rallies, [2:28] that's taking people into a winning position. When you look at what's happened — if you take a look [2:33] at what's happened since I've been doing these massive, totally sold-out rallies, nobody's ever [2:40] seen anything like it. As an example, we're up in Texas. We weren't. We're up in Alaska. We weren't. [2:46] We're up — everybody — every place that I've gone to, we're up. [2:50] The Press. Do you want to run a bilateral meeting with presidents to talk about Ukraine? [2:55] No, but I would — I would do it. Not so much for Ukraine. I — because Russia, [3:00] frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much. And the same thing with China. [3:06] We would have it to talk about nuclear weapons and denuclearization. And any time I can have a [3:12] meeting on denuclearization — so we have more — during my term, I did it — we have more nuclear [3:18] weapons than anybody. Russia is second. China is third, but catching up. China was way behind, [3:24] and now they're catching up. It'll take them probably five years. We would schedule a meeting [3:30] based on the denuclearization. And that's a very positive thing for the world. [3:34] The Press. The Press. [3:36] The President. So I would do it. If they want to have a — I just heard about it. If they'd like to [3:40] have it, I think it would be held in China. He just left here. If President Xi wants to have it, [3:46] I'd have it. I'm sure we're talking about other things like trade, too. But yeah, I would do that. [3:52] The Press. The Press. The Press. The Press. The Press. The Press. The Press. The Press. The Press.

The Press [4:26] everybody from the world come in the whole world was coming in and you know as you know paris is [4:32] going to be a muslim city very soon and that wasn't the deal that wasn't the deal i told emmanuel you [4:38] should close up your borders and let's see i've known him for probably eight or nine years i told [4:44] him as soon as i met him i said you're making a big mistake we closed our borders he did and you [4:50] know what his borders are a problem and he also has a little bit of a problem with energy but they [4:56] have gone you know they're doing better than others but emmanuel should have closed his borders [5:01] a long time ago i told him to do it what do you do sir how many things zelensky says you're supporting [5:06] putin by waiving these sanctions i'm supporting stopping the war between russia and ukraine how [5:14] does that help stop the war and you know what why because that's what i do for a living and frankly [5:20] zelensky is not helping matters much i think he doesn't want to stop it but i want to see [5:25] people not die they're losing probably on average 25 to 35 000 soldiers every single month all i want [5:34] to do i don't care i want to get the war stuff i don't want to see 25 35 000 last month it was 32 000 [5:43] i don't want to see 32 000 soldiers dead has nothing to do with this country but you know what i from a [5:49] human standpoint ukraine is losing a lot of so ukraine is losing all of its men and i was watching a [5:56] woman on television the other night and she blames zelensky she said he's killing our men and the fact [6:03] is she said and it was very poignant she said our men are dying our men have no legs in many cases you [6:11] look around they have no legs they're in mental institutions she's talking about ukraine and she's very [6:18] well known and they want to put her in prison i want to see the war stop you're losing tremendous [6:24] numbers of mostly young military men and that means 25 000 to 35 000 a month all i want is for russia [6:34] and ukraine to stop that stupid war yeah would you meet with presidents she and and and [6:41] to discuss the end of the war without zelensky there well i would meet in order anything i can do to end [6:47] the war whether somebody's there or not whatever i can do to end the war and they do want to have [6:53] a meeting at my suggestion because i'm going to be over in china in november on the denuclearization [6:59] and if we can do denuclearization i will have done the world a big big favor but [7:06] you're on the wrong side of history here sir zelensky says you're on the wrong side of history [7:10] what'd you say zelensky says you're on the wrong side of history on this one zelensky said [7:15] it zelensky doesn't know what he's talking about zelensky is a man that should have had this war [7:21] settled a long time ago if he would have listened to me he would have made a much better deal a long [7:26] time ago and it'd have a million people living from his side and to be honest i don't think i think [7:33] it's time for somebody else to negotiate on behalf of ukraine because what's happened very little land [7:39] this move but a million people a tremendous number of people are dead they're losing their male [7:46] population ukraine could have had this thing settled a long time ago if he would have listened to me [7:51] and you remember the oval office he would have had this settled a long time ago maybe it's time for [7:57] zelensky to get somebody else to negotiate is it a bad sign for republicans that you have to go [8:06] campaign in kansas today no i tell you i have a man named roger and you know him very well roger [8:12] marshall he's a fantastic senator he's one of the best it's a close race it shouldn't be and as you [8:19] know i won by a tremendous amount like 25 30 points i won by a lot kansas and they should be winning by a [8:26] lot so i went to just you want to listen to me i went to alaska and dan sullivan is up i went to [8:36] ohio john eustadt is up i went to texas and ken paxton is up so far and i went to many other places [8:45] wherever wherever i go they seem to be up and i have the biggest rallies anybody's ever seen [8:55] uh they're packed houses we have thousands and thousands of people today and beyond the house [9:01] they're broadcast all over and my rallies are having a huge impact and a positive impact on the republican [9:07] party i'm going to kansas because i want it by a lot and the great senator and he's a great senator [9:15] roger marshall he's one of the best senators uh i think he's tied or up by a little bit according to [9:23] polls look the polls effect but according to polls so i want to make sure roger marshall gets in roger [9:29] marshall is a great man and he's a great senator so that's why i'm going i think that's fine [9:34] how do you think it's so much you want to share intelligence with ukraine on the russian attacks [9:39] yeah we share intelligence russian republicans we share a lot we've given a lot to ukraine [9:47] you know what we've given a lot to ukraine they've given nothing to us remember that we've given [9:53] hundreds of billions of dollars i gave the javelins to ukraine when they knocked out that was me [10:00] obama gave them pillows you know the expression obama gave them sheets and pillows trump gave [10:06] them the javelins so don't tell me about ukraine we've given a lot to ukraine they've given us [10:12] nothing republicans are worried that you're going to put money in the pocket mr president you said [10:17] russia could have done way more to help you said russia could have done way more to help iran if they [10:23] wanted did russia threaten could have done a lot more that's right russia could have done a lot more to [10:29] help if you put it bluntly russia could have done a lot more to help iran russia's done very little [10:36] for iran china could have done a lot more for rent they've done and i remember that when china does [10:42] not that much maybe nothing almost but very little for iran and russia does very little for iran [10:50] i view that as being a very positive thing [10:52] i feel good i feel good i mean i think good i think it's fake polls [11:04] uh look i had one poll where i was down by three and i won by 20 and the person that was the pollster [11:12] had to quit in disgrace so uh you know one of those things i don't rely on the polls but polls mean [11:19] something but a lot of the polls are rigged just like the journalists are rigged i could name six [11:25] of them that i'm looking right here you're rigged journalists a lot of the polls are rigged not all [11:29] of you but there's some good ones i can name also but a lot of the polls are rigged a lot of the uh [11:35] pollsters look at what happened in iowa where a pollster said that i was going to lose iowa and they [11:42] ended up winning by almost 20 points you know what she and by the way she knew what she was doing [11:50] that was a crooked that was a crooked deal because up until then for years she was always polling me [11:58] correctly i was going to win by a lot i had a great win in iowa and she said i was going to lose by four [12:04] and i won by almost 20. that was a crooked deal [12:07] well the france thing is a very sad situation what's happening in france because what's happening [12:24] in france has to do with immigration not schools not anything it's immigration and i told president [12:33] macron close up your borders i told him the first time i met him which was years ago in my first term [12:39] close up your borders you're going to have nothing but trouble and they've got a lot of trouble [12:44] they let people into their country that don't love their country they don't love their buildings [12:49] they don't love their art and i said the first time i met macron i said you got to close up your [12:56] your borders you're going to ruin your country and they've ruined their country it's going to be hard [13:01] to get it back but hopefully france will come back [13:04] well i told many of those leaders your immigration is going to cause [13:52] you a tremendous amount of problem in europe in france and in europe and i've been right [13:58] that's an immigration problem these are people that come in as an example in france where it's so bad [14:04] they don't love the country they don't love their art they don't love their buildings they don't love [14:08] their people and they've got themselves arrived this isn't about school this is about immigration [14:14] and these are people that are coming they're taking over the country and he made a mistake and i've told [14:19] putin and i've told others i told putin having to do with russia on another subject but we talked [14:26] about it i told macron i told all of these leaders you better watch your borders because your countries [14:33] are being destroyed and you know who agrees with me some of the leaders that you people don't like [14:39] the violence mr president the violence was also in italy during this weekend so did you see that [14:48] what's your reaction in italy milan well the same violence of france it has to do with when you look [14:54] at italy and france it has to do with immigration and i told them all that was going to happen [15:00] that is a that's a boiler waiting to explode it's a very sad thing to watch for me to watch we have [15:07] closed borders nobody comes in and we're getting all the people out all the people that came in [15:12] illegally they're coming out what happened is they let people in they didn't get them out and they [15:17] came in by the millions and honestly they're different countries than they were 10 years ago [15:25] do you think you're going to be able to get that meeting with north korea next month in china [15:29] oh i don't know i don't know i don't know i get along with him very well with kim jong-un i get [15:37] along with him very well and uh i'm not sure that anybody's asking for a meeting but my relationship [15:43] with kim jong-un is very good [15:47] the president of venezuela what are your thoughts on senator elisa slotkin suggesting that democrats [16:07] and prosecutions of republican leaders should scare young conservatives away from getting involved [16:12] well i think what they've done is weaponized government slotkin is a lowlife who's ruining [16:18] her her state just destroying her state but what they're doing is really discouraging people from [16:26] going into politics no they've weaponized government the democrats that's what they've done [16:34] hispanic vote how are you feeling about hispanic vote for this election i think we're doing great i want [16:38] hispanics i've done more than any republican in history i got tremendous hispanic republicans [16:45] have been looking around for what you want no i think they're good and i think every every time i [16:50] have a rally right now as you know you know where i'm going to kansas right and we have roger [16:55] marshall and we want to make sure he wins he's a great senator i just want to make sure every place [17:01] i've gone to they're doing well so that means i have to be proud of it when you talk to president [17:07] shi about ukraine will you talk to president shi about ukraine i would do but so far i think it's [17:13] been very fair in ukraine he hasn't been very much involved and the same with russia they haven't been [17:19] nearly what they could have been and i appreciate that they know i appreciate it mr president who is [17:26] america under tps will you let them stay under the temporary protected status [17:30] until the war hands are you talking about i'd certainly consider it [17:34] but you have any update to a federal investigation into the death of nolan wells [17:41] you told me the other week that the fbi you were looking at the fbi's rescue i will continue to [17:46] you know europe is in europe if europe doesn't close its borders and bring the criminals out like the [18:02] people that are protesting europe is finished europe has to close its borders like i've been telling them [18:08] for 10 years they have to close their borders and they have to take people that hate their countries out [18:14] because otherwise they're finished they will not have a chance of survival when i look at france [18:19] when you look at italy when you look at all the turmoil and the hatred that's not about school [18:25] that's about people coming into the countries that hate the country they hate the buildings they hate [18:30] the people they hate the art they have to close their borders and they have to take those bad people [18:37] in california california thank you sir senator slotkin a democrat she says she wants there to be [18:45] prosecutions of republicans to scare conservatives young conservatives from going into office [18:50] i know that's a hell of a statement so slotkin said that there should be prosecutions in order to [18:57] scare people from going into politics that's a democrat and that's what they do that's all they're good at [19:04] and you know what that's why they're getting their asses kicked it's old it's tired it's beaten up [19:27] it's useless it doesn't do much business we want to do something great for washington we're going to [19:34] basically build a better golf course you could call it a renovation it should be very simple [19:39] and it's something that the department of interior is allowed to do absolutely all they want to do is [19:44] fix up their property it's been allowed to get run down bad dangerous dirty lousy and it's going to be [19:51] one of the great courses
