[46:49] Thank you. [46:51] Thank you. [46:53] Thank you. [46:55] Thank you. [46:57] Thank you. [46:59] Thank you. [47:01] Thank you. [47:03] action is nobody talks about the fact that 19 billion dollars at a minimum is missing in [47:10] Minnesota given to a large degree but by Somalians they've taken it Somalians can you imagine and [47:21] they don't do it a lot of very low IQ people they don't do it other people work it out and they get [47:28] them money and they go out and buy Mercedes Benzes and they come from here they have no money they [47:34] never had money they never had a life they never had a government they never had a country because [47:39] there's basically no country Somalia is not even a country they don't have anything that resembles a [47:45] country and if it is a country it's considered just about the worst in the world they come here [47:49] and they become rich and they don't have a job I was told that Ilhan Omar is worth 30 million dollars [47:56] she never had a job she's a crooked congressman so here's another one and I have oh by the way we [48:06] just took out that's what these are all what ice is doing and it's a dangerous job these are rough [48:13] these are rough people weapons this one here is very bad I'm going through this because I think [48:28] we have plenty of time I'm going to place beautiful place in Switzerland where we'll be I'm sure I'm [48:36] very happily awaited for in Switzerland they don't know about this they don't have this problem they [48:45] have other problems but they don't have this problem look killed somebody and these are rough [48:54] people these are not this was all allowed into our country through open borders these dumbest policies [49:01] you know men and women's sports is dumb but to me having an open border for the world to come in [49:07] drug dealers and prisoners Venezuela as an example opened their prisons into the United States that's why [49:16] one of the reasons I felt so strongly against Venezuela now I'm loving Venezuela they've been [49:24] working with us so well it's been so nice and an unbelievably nice woman also did a very incredible [49:33] thing as you know a few days ago she's we're talking to her and maybe we can get her involved [49:40] in some way I'd love to be able to do that Maria is maybe we can do that but we're dealing with the [49:46] people invented the president and all of the people in Venezuela and we've been doing great the oil [49:53] companies are getting ready to make massive investments there they have more oil and even [49:57] Saudi Arabia there you go these are real these are rough one this is all Minnesota every one of them [50:08] this is one state out of many and these people are let's see yeah these are all so far people that [50:21] came from outside of the country they were allowed in by sleepy Joe Biden crooked Joe Biden whichever [50:27] you like you can call them whatever you like they're both right he's sleepy and he's crooked [50:30] it was the worst president we've ever had and we've had some bad ones too I can tell you all you have [50:38] to do is look at trade you're not getting bored with this right I hope you don't but these are people [50:47] that you have to see strong-arm rape aggravated assault with a weapon and many other crimes gang [51:07] member known as one of the toughest people around these are tough people so this is what the people [51:21] are trying to protect because all ice wants to do is get them out of our country bring them to [51:27] prisons and jails and mental institutions from where they came that's all they want to do [51:31] they're patriots and they have to be abused by guys like Don Lemon who's a you know loser lightweight [51:38] I saw him the way he walked in that church it was terrible I have such respect for that pastor [51:42] he was so calm he was so nice he was just accosted what they did in that church was horrible yesterday [51:49] look at 24 convictions 24 times convicted did not charges these are convictions so he comes from [52:01] outside the country do you think he's going to be good here convicted 24 times he's going to be good [52:06] here right it doesn't work that way it's a man murder one of many one of many all they want to [52:16] do is get them out they want to take them out of our country and we're met with paid agitators [52:24] and insurrectionists troublemakers they're paid you know when the woman was shot and I felt terribly about [52:31] that and I understand both sides of it but when she was shot there was another woman that was [52:40] screaming shame shame shame shame right you saw so loud like a professional opera singer she was so [52:49] loud and so professional she wasn't a woman that was hurt like oh my heart's injured she was a [52:57] professional shame shame she's screaming shame ship I said that's not a normal person that's that's a [53:05] professional these are professional agitators and professional people that want to see our country do [53:11] badly but that's not happening because we have the hottest country anywhere in the world despite [53:16] this stuff look at this all top of the line criminals they're not going to be good they're [53:26] not going to be well behaved here I could do I could do thousands we had over 3,000 in the last [53:34] fairly short well just in Minnesota what's the number care 10,000 10,000 10,000 criminal and these [53:44] are serious criminals now how can a place with 10,000 criminals how can you have a state and yet [53:51] they're fighting us I like that guy keeps nodding to me do you agree with me I guess I like him I don't [53:57] know who he is but I like him he keeps nodding he says you're right he's obviously a little on the right [54:02] side maybe look these are rough ones so this we just took this off a stack we have many stacks like this like I could go [54:19] 30 times what I'm showing you now relations with Hezbollah that's nice why do we allow them in our country [54:34] hmm I'm just looking at these charges it's just pretty incredible many murderers many many murderers [54:50] people that murdered so what what ice does and border patrol is incredible too I mean there Paul [55:08] Perez and that group is incredible mostly Hispanic by the way they're like 60 percent Hispanic you know [55:15] they talk about Hispanic they're mostly Hispanic right and they're unbelievable people and then they say oh we [55:22] discriminate against I love Hispanic they are unbelievable entrepreneurial they have everything I did great I did the [55:30] highest nobody ever got numbers like I got from the standpoint of being a Republican but even the if you look at [55:38] Texas I won the entire border along Texas between Texas and Mexico never happened before nobody's ever done that [55:45] before I did it as a Republican I did it I love the Hispanic and they accuse us of all sorts of things [55:52] 60 percent of the people we're talking about they're the best people we have and they're Hispanic the border [55:58] patrol is largely Hispanic ice is largely Hispanic they're unbelievable people I don't know how they can [56:06] take the abuse they're taking rough they're taking rough people like this like all of them we have so we have 10,000 at least I could have done 10,000 of them you're lucky I only did like 100 and this is just this isn't even the worst of the group they have murderers [56:26] have some people we can't use their picture for legal reasons but they're up for murder in their own country and we jeopardize their case when we send them back we send them back and we coordinate with other countries a tremendous amount of work [56:41] all allowed in here by an open border policy of the worst president in the history of our country a man that didn't win the election by the way got a rigged election everybody knows that now [56:52] and by the way numbers are coming out that show it even more plainly we caught them we caught them so I just want you to know that it's uh it's a terrible it's a terrible thing [57:06] here's uh the book on accomplishments and this is something oh I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker they could have done some damage but you know what I wouldn't have shown the pain [57:19] I would have gone back what did you hear that that was nasty but I would not have shown the pain I would have acted like nothing happened as my finger fell off that was a nasty I think somebody did that [57:33] I think some it was him that's right it was my man how were you you didn't do it I know you did I know you didn't so um but here is the uh here's the book these are all [57:46] things we have I'm going to read a few of the samples but look at this these are all each line is something that we did nobody did that before and it's big stuff too [57:58] look we have the hottest country in the world so I will read you a few we ended Biden's stagflation we were in stagflation that's a disaster that's far worse than [58:14] inflation as you know he had the biggest inflation in the history of our country they say 48 years pick your choice [58:20] but they had the biggest inflation in the history of our country we we have it right down to a normal number now we're going to get [58:27] it even a little bit lower created super high what we've done with with growth is incredible we created super high economic [58:36] growth and America is booming it's booming there are thousands of businesses right now that are being built many of the biggest [58:45] factories in the world are being built right in our country they're not going to other countries they're leaving other countries [58:50] fourth quarter GDP is on track to pass perhaps much more than five percent growth and that's despite the fact that we had a [58:59] democrat shutdown they shut down our country and we had five percent nobody's in this room has ever heard about five percent [59:05] I think it could be twenty percent if we do it right if we don't every time we have good numbers they raise interest rates [59:12] you shouldn't do in the old days if you had good numbers they'd lower interest rates so they wouldn't do anything here they try and kill it [59:18] they always try and kill success over the last 20 25 years that's the way in the old days if you had good numbers the [59:26] market would go through the roof today if you have good numbers the market goes down but by the way we've had the best stock [59:33] market in history the best 401ks in history and we inherited a mess the numbers that we inherited are way were way up and now we [59:43] brought them almost all of them way down we brought them way down I mean I'm not getting [59:48] maybe I have the bad public relations people but we're not getting it across we inherited high numbers and we brought them way down [59:57] and look at gasoline they have places in the country now $1.99 a gallon $1.99 $2.30 $2.50 I guess the average now they're saying is [1:00:07] $2.31 I mean he was at $4.50 and $5 for periods of time and he went back to the Trump formula but he didn't do it properly [1:00:20] and he really went back to parts of it because they were you would have had $8 gasoline if they didn't [1:00:26] but he didn't do it properly he had people that didn't know what they were doing core inflation for the last three months [1:00:31] is 1.6% 1.6 their core inflation was so high that nobody could even calculate it under Biden real incomes declined $3,000 [1:00:47] think of the $3,000 that's a year in 12 months Trump real incomes went up by $2,000 and $3,000 and even in some cases $5,000 [1:00:58] it's a tremendous difference stock market has said 52 all-time record highs during the course of the actually the 11 months [1:01:09] because this was done on 11 months now which now we are actually officially 12 months as of today 52 all-time record highs [1:01:16] that means 401ks did great I have people see me all the time policemen that guard us really well and got to know him a little bit [1:01:24] they said so you're making me look so good my 401ks through the roof my wife thinks I'm the greatest genius [1:01:30] that I'm a financial genius like Warren Buffett he told me that he said I I think they have better returns [1:01:38] than Warren Buffett right now but he said all my life my wife has been criticizing me for not being smart [1:01:45] financially now all of a sudden she's she loves me more but we added $9 trillion in value to retirement accounts [1:01:54] saving saving saving many people I mean they were going out of business think of it we added $9 trillion [1:02:03] of value to retirement accounts savings accounts and 401ks that's during the course of 12 months and I think [1:02:10] it's probably 11 months because I don't think they have it for the 12 they have it for the 11 added [1:02:15] $9 trillion of value lifted more than 1.2 million Americans are food stamps in one year they would have had [1:02:25] another 1.2 million we would have had welfare would have gone up and instead of investing [1:02:32] 18 trillion dollars in our country now it's probably more than that but 18 trillion and having thousands [1:02:38] of plants being built all over the country you would have had thousands of plants closing all over the [1:02:44] country and you would have had disinvestment and you would have had welfare going way up you know if you look at [1:02:53] snap take a look at snap what happened with that it was at seven billion dollars and it came out to [1:03:01] over 51 billion dollars nobody has ever seen anything like it the past administration uh they had no clue [1:03:12] or they were really bad but they basically had no clue but they did have a concept I mean they're still [1:03:19] trying to sell the idea of men playing in women's sports you saw that in the supreme court I mean some of [1:03:25] those justices were fighting for them too they were fighting for them but you saw that just the other [1:03:30] day in the supreme court men playing in women's sport doesn't work secured a record-breaking 18 trillion [1:03:36] dollars in commitments for new investments apple nvidia softbank oracle tsmc johnson and johnson eli lily [1:03:44] and company micron astrazeneca general motors hyundai ford honda ge aerospace many many others I left a [1:03:54] fort plant a week ago in Michigan that they were going to close two years ago and now they just [1:04:01] announced that they're going 24 hours around the clock making cars terrorists did it I don't know [1:04:07] what the supreme court's going to do I think it to me it reads so plainly couldn't be plainer you're [1:04:15] allowed to do a license tariff is probably less severe than what a license could be but think of it [1:04:22] you're allowed to do a license and then they have a clause at the end something to the effect or what is [1:04:27] necessary something to that effect and what is necessary with tariffs I don't know where there's [1:04:32] a case even there but we've taken in hundreds of billions of dollars and if we lose that case it's [1:04:39] possible we're going to have to do the best we can in paying it back I don't know how that's going to be [1:04:46] done very easily without hurting a lot of people but we're waiting for that case anxiously and we have [1:04:53] tremendous national security because of tariffs and tremendous income you know we have and by [1:04:59] the way no inflation so everyone said oh tariffs will cause inflation we have no inflation we have [1:05:05] very little inflation Biden had inflation and he didn't do tariffs we had a huge problem we had [1:05:11] we have a 62 percent reduction in our trade deficit so if you had a one percent reduction a normal [1:05:18] president would have a one percent two percent reduction everybody would be high-fiving had a [1:05:24] 62 percent reduction next year we won't have a trade deficit we secured most favored nations agreements to [1:05:31] slash drug prices by as much and to me I think this might be the biggest thing of all we get zero talk [1:05:39] about it uh the New York Times had a story way in the back of the paper a little story about it [1:05:45] I think it's the biggest thing there is when you talk about health care [1:05:49] drug prices will go down more than ever before for any country because we was we were priced at [1:05:58] such a level that we were subsidizing the entire world big place the world we were paying 10 12 [1:06:05] 13 times more than other countries 13 times when not 13 13 13 times more a pill that was selling in [1:06:13] london for 10 dollars would sell in new york for 130 dollars that's 13 times more than that even [1:06:22] but we secured most favored nations agreements to slash drug prices by as much as 300 400 500 and [1:06:30] even 600 percent including with pfizer astrazeneca eli lily nova nordisk gilliad sciences emd serrano and [1:06:44] many others if you look at some of the prices that are coming down where a price would come down [1:06:54] one thousand three hundred dollars coming down to eighty seven dollars think of it so something that [1:07:00] was costing one thousand three hundred dollars is now costing eighty seven dollars and the fake news [1:07:07] doesn't want to write about it that's why i do this i don't like to do this to be honest with you [1:07:12] but i do it because got to get the word out we signed one big beautiful bill i call it the great big [1:07:20] beautiful bill delivering the largest tax cuts in history no tax on tips no tax on social security no [1:07:25] tax on overtime we made interest on car loans tax deductible for u.s built automobiles only so if [1:07:34] you build the if you buy an automobile built in the united states we're not doing it for germany and canada [1:07:39] and different places we're doing it only if it's built here we want them to be built here a lot of the [1:07:46] canadian auto plants are closing and they're moving into the united states same thing with mexico [1:07:52] same thing with germany and same thing with japan and other countries they're moving into the united [1:07:56] states because of tariffs because they don't want to pay the tariffs it's too much they can't pay the [1:08:01] tariffs so they're coming here nothing different than what other smart countries did but it works better [1:08:08] for us under my leadership it's not done properly but uh it's done properly we have again more more [1:08:17] plants being built than at any time in the history of our country passed the largest spending cuts in [1:08:23] american history and that was true of my first you know we had a tremendous first term also [1:08:27] we rebuilt our military we had one of the best we had the best economy in the history of our country [1:08:35] but we're blowing it away now this where this stuff starts opening up you're not going to see anything [1:08:39] like it probably ever again we slashed the federal budget deficit by 27 in a single year think of [1:08:48] that 27 you know you could do it two percent one percent a half a percent 27 and that's with all of [1:08:57] the things we have to do all of the people we have to put on the payroll to get rid of people that are [1:09:03] murderers again when you see people in minnesota that are murderers these people are fighting to keep [1:09:12] them there and i i say to christy and to tom holman the great people they're working so hard look at [1:09:18] the border the border is now secure first time biden said you couldn't do it you need legislation i had [1:09:24] no legislation i said close the border within one month we had almost nobody coming in now for the last [1:09:31] eight months nobody came into our country illegally and i find that hard to believe because you'd think [1:09:38] somebody because it used to be millions of people just poured into our country and the people that [1:09:43] do that are democrat uh sort of aligned so i mean they're not doing me any favors we had nobody come [1:09:50] in we have a very strong border very few people coming up they're not going to make the trek because [1:09:54] they know they probably won't be coming in so it's not as hard as you think but i didn't have to go back [1:10:01] remember they said we need legislation to close the border they had millions of people coming in a month [1:10:08] we have nobody coming in and we're getting the murderers out murderers people from prisons and [1:10:15] jails many countries opened up their prisons and dropped them into the united states those are the [1:10:20] people we're getting out and we have a lot of heart they said you gotta lighten up on this we have a lot [1:10:26] of heart for people they came in illegally but they're good people and they're working now on farms and [1:10:32] they're working in luncheonettes and hotels and all and we're not looking we're looking to get the [1:10:38] criminals out right now the criminals and i think it's very important i mean i every once in a while [1:10:46] you see a story we take somebody he should be out because they came in illegally so in theory they [1:10:50] should be but we're focused on the murderers the drug dealers the mentally insane we have a lot of [1:10:57] mentally insane killers i mean you can't even talk to them be nice if you could have a little reason but [1:11:02] you can't even reason these are seriously people ill people you have a couple of countries where they [1:11:08] were loaded up their mental institutions and insane assailments were loaded to the gills they couldn't [1:11:13] get they're empty now but they're filling up because we're bringing them all back we know where they came [1:11:19] from and every country accepts them you know under biden they wouldn't say they had so little respect [1:11:25] that they'd bring them there and they wouldn't take them they say get the hell out of here [1:11:29] they would would be bringing a plane in to land in a country and they'd put five planes on the runway [1:11:34] so you couldn't land the plane so they'd come back with the people that they were bringing back [1:11:40] they don't do that with me they do that with me they have problems they don't do they accept them [1:11:45] back they're not happy about it but they accept them back cut a record number of regulations i promise [1:11:51] to eliminate 10 old regulations for every one new regulation instead we cut 129 old regulations for each [1:11:58] one edit think of that i want to do 10 last with my first four years i did when we put on a new [1:12:05] regulation you had to cut eight this year i said you have to cut 10 instead we cut 129 so every time [1:12:14] so far can't remain like that i don't imagine i hope i can because we have so much wasted regulation [1:12:20] stupid regulations regulations where they go by california which is a disaster state [1:12:26] with a with a governor that truly is doing a bad job it's killing that state if he ever ran the [1:12:34] country this country would be venezuela very quickly using tariffs slash the u.s trade deficit by an [1:12:42] incredible 77 the trade deficit is down and that doesn't include the last month where we had our best [1:12:50] month we slashed a trade deficit by an incredible 77 in one year with no inflation something that everyone [1:12:59] said could not be done so we had essentially no inflation in fact the last month we had very [1:13:04] almost no inflation but we slashed the trade deficit by 77 percent if you slashed it by one percent that [1:13:13] was good again we did that with tariffs and intelligence we did that with november 5th great election [1:13:22] we secured historic trade deals to reduce barriers on u.s exports with countries covering 40 percent [1:13:28] of all u.s trade think of that american exports are up by more than 150 billion dollars this year people [1:13:37] said oh we're not in exporting all we do is buy if you keep buying you're not going to have a country [1:13:42] for very long so we increased exports by more than 150 billion dollars investment in american factories is up [1:13:52] 41 that's a record nobody goes 41 up you go two percent up one percent up you go down by three percent [1:14:03] if kamala got elected the 41 up would be 41 down we removed over 270 000 bureaucrats from the federal [1:14:12] pair that's another thing so we have you know we announced our uh our unemployment numbers call it [1:14:20] unemployment or employment and they were very good but we could make them great but we've slashed [1:14:28] tremendous numbers of people off the federal payroll because ultimately if you're on the federal payroll [1:14:36] i mean we have we have jobs where they had 10 people for every job so we cut now if you want to see [1:14:42] some good numbers i'll put i'll hire a million people we cut millions of people off the federal payroll [1:14:49] i don't like doing that but the good news i don't feel badly because they're getting private sector [1:14:53] jobs and they're getting sometimes twice as much money three times as much money they're getting [1:14:59] factory jobs they're getting much better jobs and much higher pay but all i have to do is say like [1:15:06] you know what the democrats do all the time they hire a million people and then they hire another million [1:15:12] another million they load it up and it says oh they only have a three percent unemployment right it's a fake [1:15:18] rate so with us we're proud of the fact that we cut so many because again i don't want to cut people [1:15:24] but when you cut them and they go out and get a better job i like to cut them and sometimes they [1:15:28] have to be forced to do that because you know it's like they want to stay where they are they don't [1:15:33] know and then all of a sudden they end up we have many cases caroline where where people were [1:15:39] devastated they hated trump i got caught from my very boring federal job where they had again sometimes [1:15:46] 10 people to do one job and they were very upset and now they ended up with a job where they get [1:15:52] paid three times more money they're ending up buying houses it's like crazy so they went from not liking [1:15:59] me to liking me a lot because they're it's hard to get we need people we need people it's one of the [1:16:05] reasons i mean i want to when you have good people on the farm or good people in hotels and everything [1:16:11] else we want to work with them as much as we can under biden one out of four jobs added was a [1:16:17] government job think of that so 25 of the jobs added that's when you when you know that that's [1:16:24] 25 of jobs aren't real jobs but again i could do that i could add two million jobs right now would have [1:16:31] an unemployed i could say just hire some more people i do the opposite i say get rid of everybody that's [1:16:37] unnecessary because that's the way you make america great again when you have you know all these jobs [1:16:43] where people are sitting around doing nothing and they get a lot of money by the government it's no [1:16:48] good but that's what the democrats do they show oh we were at four percent unemployment that's a good [1:16:54] number but they just add jobs or they wouldn't cut they would never cut jobs under trump 100 of all [1:17:03] new jobs created have been in the private sector think of that not one percent has gone to federal [1:17:10] so under biden one out of four was a government job under trump 100 of the new jobs created [1:17:18] 100 came from the private sector that's how you make your country wealthy and strong and good [1:17:26] we inherited the worst border in history and turned it into the strongest border in history [1:17:31] illegal crossings have plummeted to the lowest level ever recorded down 99.999 that means down 100 [1:17:43] 99.99 now we want to find out who that one person is for eight months in a row zero and these are [1:17:51] government numbers these are not my numbers for eight months in a row zero illegal aliens were [1:17:56] admitted to our country zero nobody came in unless they came in legally we have a big process for having [1:18:04] people come in legally by the way a lot of people are coming in legally they have to prove they love [1:18:09] our country they have to prove that they're not going to need welfare a lot of things they have to [1:18:15] prove for the first time in 50 years we are now seeing reverse migration where we're getting because [1:18:24] we're getting all of these illegal people out people that came in illegally many cases they're [1:18:29] criminals in many many cases you remember when they used to say that the people that come into our [1:18:34] country as immigrants are very nice people they're wonderful people they don't commit crime no they [1:18:40] make our criminals look like babies they make our hell's angels look like the sweetest people on earth [1:18:48] the hell's angels are now considered a nice high quality person i like the hell's angels they voted for me [1:18:55] they protected me actually believe it or not but they make our criminals look like babies these are [1:19:04] some of the most vicious people anywhere in the world they came from the congo the prisons i know the [1:19:10] congo because i ended the war with the congo and rwanda tough group very tough group they came from prisons [1:19:18] in the congo some of the toughest meanest people you'll ever meet thank you very much they allowed him to [1:19:27] come into america these are tough people before my election 100 of net job creation was going to foreign [1:19:35] migrants since my inauguration 100 of the net jobs created have gone to american-born citizens that's a [1:19:43] big thing in other words we're now taking care of our people 100 of net jobs created have gone to the [1:19:49] american-born people before that we didn't care uh designated trend de aragua ms-13 and the mexican [1:19:59] drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations and we've hit them hard you've seen what we've done on [1:20:06] the water we're starting to do that on land the land is much easier actually water is incredible we did [1:20:13] that on the water so that when you do it on the land they don't go to the water nobody's going into the [1:20:19] boat business right now i can tell you 97 down drugs coming in by water thank you 97 nobody ever [1:20:30] heard of that before 90 they heard two percent one percent it went up two percent 97 and we're looking [1:20:37] for the three percent who the hell are the three percent they're crazy but uh we we've we've taken out [1:20:47] almost a hundred percent of the drugs coming in by water now we're going to be very shortly [1:20:52] starting drugs coming in by land we know exactly where they're coming from removed tens of thousands [1:20:59] of illegal alien gang members drug dealers murderers child predators human traffickers fraudsters [1:21:06] savage criminals and others we removed them from our country they're out they're gone in some cases [1:21:13] they're so dangerous that we put them in jail because we don't want to give them to their country their [1:21:18] country doesn't do anything and they end up coming back we we have some that we're just they're so [1:21:22] bad that we don't want to really release them we want to put them in a jail where we know they're [1:21:27] properly uh ensconced think of that remove tens of thousands of illegal alien gang members drug dealers [1:21:38] murderers child predators human traffickers fraudsters and savage criminals why wouldn't you want them [1:21:45] remote the reason is because these are insurrectionists that are doing this work and you know they're [1:21:55] going to make mistakes sometimes ice is going to be too rough with somebody or you know they're dealing [1:22:00] with rough people are they going to make a mistake sometimes it can happen we feel terribly i felt [1:22:08] horribly when i was told that the young woman who was uh had the tragedy it's a tragedy it's a horrible [1:22:16] thing everybody would say dice would say the same thing but uh when i learned her her parents and her [1:22:24] father in particular is like was he i hope he still is but i don't know was a tremendous trump fan he was [1:22:31] all for trump loved trump and uh you know it's terrible i was told that by a lot of people they said oh he [1:22:41] loves you he he was a i hope i hope he still feels that way i don't know it's hard hard situation but her [1:22:48] father was a tremendous and parents were tremendous uh trump fans i'd so sad it just happens it's terrible [1:22:57] halted all refugee admissions to the united states including from somalia which is a terrible terrible [1:23:04] place and other dangerous places and we also stopped the pirates because they get the same treatment as [1:23:11] the drug boats so when somalia they're somalians you know what they're good at that's about the only [1:23:17] thing they're good at is they're good at pirating ships at sea big ships so you have a huge oil [1:23:25] tanker with millions of gallons millions of barrels of oil and if it gets hit by a big weapon the whole [1:23:33] thing blows up and they don't want to fight because if they do they're told by their insurance companies [1:23:40] do not hand over the ship and they're not allowed to have any guns on the ship that they're literally [1:23:46] you have these massive ships being taken over by a somalian small boat with a big weapon because if [1:23:54] they hit the side of the ship the ship can blow up to i mean you talk about a blow up bad we've seen [1:24:01] we've seen some bad things happen and the insurance insurance companies some of these ships cost more [1:24:06] than a billion dollars to build and the insurance companies say look we'd rather give them money than [1:24:11] take a chance on a billion dollar insurance policy but they don't have to worry about it because we hit them [1:24:18] the same way we hit the people with the drugs in their boat they don't know what the hell happened [1:24:24] but all of a sudden there are no pirates at sea do you notice we haven't had a boat taken in a little [1:24:30] while came out of somalia a really corrupt place it's not a country they don't have government they [1:24:36] don't have anything i i i always hate to see this ilan omar she comes from somalia yeah a backward [1:24:45] country probably the worst country they say it's the worst country in the world if it's a country i don't [1:24:49] even think it's a country there's no organization knowing it they don't have police they don't have [1:24:55] military they don't have anything they just have people running around killing each other and and [1:24:59] trying to pirate ships but uh she'll come here comes and then she wants to tell us how to run our country [1:25:07] the constitution says that i have a title to this i can't stand her terminated all taxpayer funded [1:25:17] benefits for illegal aliens and kicked 275 000 illegals off of social security they were illegally [1:25:24] getting social security 275 000 people i'm telling you it's not that this is pleasurable but if i were [1:25:33] an elected president this country was just was going to be destroyed quickly very quickly i think within [1:25:40] a year if you had kamala or a joe type i mean joe was a disaster but if you had kamala he was the [1:25:47] replacement i was up by like 25 points on joe and they said hey let's get somebody else this never [1:25:52] happened well i was a i had so many firsts you're leading somebody by a lot and they say oh let's [1:25:58] take them out let's put somebody that's like i said to dana white the other night i said you know dana [1:26:03] it's like you have a fighter two fighters one guy is winning by a lot and they say oh let's take this [1:26:08] guy out let's put a new fighter in the ring with him that's what happened to me i was doing great with [1:26:14] biden the whole campaign was against biden all the money was spent against biden and all of a [1:26:20] sudden i got kamala everyone said who the hell is she but that didn't work out too well for them but [1:26:25] never happened before we are about lots of firsts designated english as the official language of the [1:26:32] united states of america we did that very powerfully and while we're at it we also took the gulf of mexico [1:26:41] and now it's the gulf of america because we have 92 of the shoreline it always bothered me i'd say you [1:26:49] know we have most of the shoreline mexico has a small percentage talks about eight percent we have 92 [1:26:55] percent and i said why why is it the gulf of mexico it should be the gulf of america i was going to call [1:27:01] it the gulf of trump but i thought that i would be killed if i did that i wanted to do it i wanted to [1:27:07] my people work so hard sir i don't think it'll look too good i'm telling you it's a good thing [1:27:15] and it'll be hotter than ever i said no but i decided not to do that i'm i'm joking you know [1:27:21] when i say that i was not going to call it the gulf of trump because tomorrow will be trump wanted to [1:27:27] call it the gulf of trump but he was rebuffed by his people my people don't rebuff me too much [1:27:34] the gulf of trump that does have a good ring though maybe we could do that it's not too late [1:27:40] now we have the gulf of america now it's great it's our country is proud for the attack on venezuela [1:27:47] the attack on the iran nuclear capability wiped it out i mean first administration soleimani the father [1:27:56] of the roadside bomb al baghdadi the father of isis who was rebuilding isis we wiped them out done a great [1:28:05] job signed an order that will end birthright citizenship for children of illegal migrants [1:28:12] you know that case is in court right now that case was meant for the children of slaves all you have [1:28:19] to do is look at the years look at the look at the years where the cases were filed and where the [1:28:24] decisions were made they were right at the end of the civil war trying to say that you know the in [1:28:31] china is making a big business out of that they come to the country they have a child the american [1:28:36] citizen they get all the benefits nothing to do with that that was for the children of slaves [1:28:44] and i hope the supreme court so rules designated fentanyl as a weapon of mass destruction it is we [1:28:51] lost i believe 300 000 people last year this year 300 000 people that's like filling up one of those [1:28:59] big football stadiums five times it's not even believable i mean you could be in a war and you [1:29:07] wouldn't lose that many people so we designated fentanyl a weapon of mass destruction conducted [1:29:14] numerous successful military strikes against narco terrorists operating in our hemisphere including [1:29:20] the water strikes drugs brought in by ocean so i told you that we're down by i mean close to 100 [1:29:29] it's hard to get somebody to pilot those boats they have to be people that don't watch television [1:29:38] don't read the news and we just blew up their uh facility they had a docking facility where the [1:29:45] drugs were stored and now we have a great relationship with venezuela we're getting along [1:29:50] fantastically with the leadership in venezuela so we wouldn't have to do that this was done before [1:29:55] before the attack but we captured and brought to justice the outlaw dictator of venezuela [1:30:03] nicholas maduro who through drugs killed millions of people in our country tremendous drug dealer also [1:30:12] sent millions of people into our country including trend de aragua the worst gang they say it's the [1:30:19] worst gang in the world they took over parts of colorado they just take the apartment building they [1:30:25] just took it away just took it away like we're here they cut the hand off one man because he called [1:30:30] the police who called the police i did you took my apartment from me boom no hand this is what they [1:30:37] sent us restoring law and order new category dc and memphis federal task forces deployed massive [1:30:45] numbers of federal law enforcement officers and national guard to restore safety crime down in dc [1:30:52] is almost down to nothing dc was a very very dangerous place and i think you probably know better than i do [1:31:00] i have a lot of people in the media thanked me for that but some of them found it hard to thank me but [1:31:06] you know dc is now look how beautiful dc is now you can walk right from here to a restaurant right [1:31:13] through the center of town you can be with your child with your loved one with your lover your [1:31:20] lover is not going to be killed anymore so you can act like a real lover but you can be you can [1:31:26] walk right through the middle of the town and dc is beautiful again too you know you notice we took [1:31:33] all the fences down almost all the rest are coming down we took got the graffiti all off national [1:31:39] guard's been amazing you know we didn't tell them to do that that's not their job description [1:31:43] but they were picking up garbage and everything they were great and i don't know to me that to [1:31:48] me a town it looks better when you have military people these are big strong guys or bad guys look [1:31:54] at them and they say we're not going to mess around but what they don't know is that we took over [1:31:59] two thousand people out permanently out of dc these were career criminals but i feel much better [1:32:07] seeing those people there i went in a couple of times and had dinner in dc i walked right down the [1:32:12] middle of the street i felt very safe a year ago i couldn't have done that i would have been crazy to [1:32:18] have done that and secret surfers wouldn't let me do it they weren't thrilled anyway i will tell you [1:32:25] it wasn't like they were thrilled but but uh we did it and it was great but dc is a great thing and we [1:32:33] have uh virtually no crime in dc anymore and before before we did this move it was and we could do the [1:32:41] same thing with chicago you know we brought chicago down 25 even though we just had a minimal crew there [1:32:47] we brought uh we brought uh wisconsin uh down we brought minnesota down way down even though [1:32:56] everything's a fight you know because they want to keep those people that are lying on the floor [1:33:02] they want to keep those people in minnesota but they really don't i don't think the real people of [1:33:08] minnesota very corrupt place uh and the elections are totally corrupt i feel i won it all three times [1:33:14] nobody's won that state since richard nixon it's a rigged state and the somalians voters [1:33:19] one group even if they're not citizens and they vote as one group and you know you get [1:33:24] 600 000 votes against you they all ought to get the hell out of here they're bad for our country [1:33:31] nationwide achieved the largest reduction in violent crime on record so this just came out [1:33:36] nationwide over the last 11 months achieved the largest reduction in violent crime on record [1:33:43] including the largest one-year drop in murders ever recorded almost 2 000 lives were saved [1:33:51] that's despite the fact that we took in criminals under the leadership of the democrats and joe biden [1:33:58] more motor vehicle theft is down by 100 000 vehicles nationwide that's another nationwide the motor vehicle [1:34:10] theft is at was out of control and now it's very much in control it was down by more than 100 000 [1:34:18] vehicles to a low a record low began the process of eliminating cashless bail policies across the nation [1:34:27] you got to get rid of your sanctuary cities and i hope our people know that we're not going to pay [1:34:32] sanctuary cities we're not going to pay them anymore they are sanctuary for criminals they hold criminals [1:34:40] we're not going to pay they can sue us and maybe they'll win but we're not giving money to sanctuary cities [1:34:46] anymore as of the beginning of the month we began the process of eliminating the cashless bail well [1:34:54] cashless bail is where it all started it's a disaster and then other places i don't know if it started in [1:34:59] new york i remember it starting in new york so somebody comes in murders somebody and they let them [1:35:05] out no bail no nothing basically cashless bail means you just get the hell out and they go outside we have [1:35:13] one case where a guy murders somebody gets released and goes out and murders somebody two people in one [1:35:19] day no we got to get rid of cashless bail they got to pay you got to have bail there's a reason for [1:35:26] bail long tested signed an executive order to bring back mental institutions and insane asylums we're [1:35:34] going to have to bring them back hate to build those suckers but but you got to get the people off the [1:35:40] streets you know we used to have when i was growing up we had in my area in queens i grew up in queens we [1:35:47] had a place called creedmore creedmore did anybody know that creedmore it was a big i said uh mom [1:35:55] why are those bars on the building i used to play little league baseball there a place called [1:36:00] cunningham park who's quite the baseball player you wouldn't believe but i said to my mother mom [1:36:09] she would be there always there for me she said son you could be a professional baseball player i said [1:36:15] thanks mom i said why are those bars on the windows big building big powerful building it loomed [1:36:24] over the park actually she said well people that are very sick are in that building i said boy i used [1:36:33] to always look at that building and i'd see this big building big tall building it loomed over the park [1:36:39] it was sort of now that i think it was a pretty unfriendly site but i'll never forget i don't know if [1:36:45] it's still there because they got rid of most of them you know they the democrats in new york they took [1:36:51] them down and the people live on the streets now that's why you have a lot of the people in california [1:36:58] and other places they live on the streets they took the mental institutions down they're expensive [1:37:02] but i'd say why does that building up those bars it didn't it wasn't normal you know you're used to [1:37:08] looking at like a window but this one you're looking at all the steel vicious steel tiny windows [1:37:14] bars all over the place nobody was getting out it's called the mental institution that was an insane asylum [1:37:22] designated antifa as a domestic terrorist organization and many others it is [1:37:28] america is respected again on the world stage that's another topic obliterated iran's nuclear [1:37:34] enrichment capability and operation midnight hammer was one of the most successful anyone's ever seen [1:37:40] cnn fake news i don't know where they are cnn anybody from cnn here fake news nobody wants to [1:37:45] raise their hand anymore they used to argue now if you're with cnn you don't raise your hand but they [1:37:51] said well maybe it wasn't that successful which i really went it was angry because these pilots took [1:37:57] their life in their hands two o'clock in the morning with no moon dead dark gun shooting at them they [1:38:04] went in with those beautiful b2s and every single bomb went down an air shaft and obliterated it and cnn [1:38:12] came out and said well maybe it wasn't by the same by a scam writer a scam writer who wrote [1:38:17] you know fake stories a lot of fake stories on other topics right because when we did it we said [1:38:23] that's a terrible thing you know the pilots came back and they said we hit everything they did a great [1:38:30] job then on top of that we launched from a submarine about 30 tomahawks on top of everything [1:38:38] else the place was obliterated cnn said well maybe it wasn't that bad it was turned out it was worse than [1:38:44] it was you know who could tell you that the iranians would tell you that because if they do anything [1:38:51] they're going to have to start a brand new place but they did an amazing job that was a it was like [1:38:57] what we did with venezuela i mean nobody's ever seen a military operation like that ended eight [1:39:05] unendable wars in 10 months these were unendable wars cambodia and thailand fighting for years [1:39:12] kosovo and serbia the congo and rwanda pakistan and india they were really going at it eight [1:39:19] planes shot down they were going to go nuclear in my opinion the prime minister of pakistan was here [1:39:27] and he said president trump saved 10 million people and maybe much more than that they're [1:39:32] both nuclear countries israel and iran egypt and ethiopia were going to fight over a dam and i got [1:39:40] them to stop i still got to work it out because they put a dam up in ethiopia that stops the flow [1:39:47] from a little river called the nile i always think of the nile being in egypt you know beautiful nile [1:39:55] with the pyramids but they put a dam up you know who paid for the dam the united states it's biggest [1:40:02] dam i think in the world they put a dam up i said how did you let that happen why would we have done [1:40:11] that we financed it this country would i don't know i don't know maybe it was a republican president [1:40:16] but i don't think it was i think it was a democrat but what a terrible thing so egypt basically is [1:40:23] they don't have enough water in the nile and they use that for a lot of things including [1:40:31] entertainment and travel and tourism and everything i mean i don't know they got a big dam i got to work [1:40:36] that one out now too armenia and azerbaijan president putin told me i cannot believe you [1:40:44] settled that war i've been trying to settle that war for 10 years armenia and azerbaijan they were [1:40:51] fighting it for many many years and i ended up getting the heads of the both countries in my office [1:41:00] beautiful oval office much more beautiful now than it ever was and one sat on one side one saturday [1:41:06] the other he said you know i've been the head of azerbaijan for 22 years and for 22 years i've been [1:41:13] killing his people and the other gentlemen and both very good guys said i've been here for seven years [1:41:21] and for seven years i've been killing his people and they started over there and within an hour they [1:41:25] were next to each other and by the time we ended they were hugging each other and it's been a great peace [1:41:30] you know should have gotten the nobel prize for each war but i don't say that i saved millions and [1:41:36] millions of people and don't let anyone tell you that norway doesn't control the shots okay [1:41:43] it's in norway norway controls the shots they'll say we have nothing to do with it [1:41:49] it's a joke they've lost such prestige got all that's why i have such respect for maria doing [1:41:55] what she did she said i don't deserve the nobel prize he does when she got it they named they said wow [1:42:01] that's amazing i thought president trump would get it president trump deserves it he ended up eight wars [1:42:07] how nice right good woman got all 20 living hostages returned to their families and the remains [1:42:15] uh they all came out we got the 20 living hostages we got the 28 hostages they have one left that we [1:42:23] think we know where it is amazing look like we weren't going to get anywhere near that now they've [1:42:27] gotten almost and uh more importantly we got many more hundreds we got them all if we didn't if we didn't do [1:42:36] it you wouldn't have had most of those people would have been dead i don't know if that's covered [1:42:41] properly but you know the 20 is great they were the last ones i always said the last 20 are going to be [1:42:47] hard but we got them we got the last 20 and we got close to 28 of the uh of the bodies of the dead [1:42:55] and to those parents that was just as important as getting their son back alive they were almost even [1:43:01] more intent on getting they knew their son was dead they wanted to get the body i got them back [1:43:07] we just created the board of peace which i think is uh going to be amazing i wish the united nations [1:43:15] could do more i wish we didn't need a board of peace but the united nations and you know with all [1:43:18] the wars i settled the united nations never helped me on one war i mean i guess i'm not blaming them i [1:43:25] didn't call them to help but i got you know the presidents and prime ministers together we knocked heads [1:43:31] we got along and they liked me i liked them every single one of them nominated me for a nobel prize [1:43:37] every one of the wars among many other people nominated me for a nobel prize but putin told [1:43:44] me i cannot believe you got this war settled i've worked on it for 10 years because it's [1:43:50] his territory rescued 83 american hostages and citizens detained from abroad without paying a lot [1:43:59] of money paid no money apprehended terrorists responsible for the abbey gate bombing that claimed [1:44:06] the lives of 13 u.s service members in afghanistan the lowest point in the history of our country [1:44:12] that was a biting disaster i was getting out but i was getting out with dignity and strength [1:44:18] if we were the boss oh we were the boss they wouldn't do a thing against us and this very stupid [1:44:25] person got in and what a shame they should have left from bagram which is the big military base [1:44:33] which has hundreds of acres around it should have left from bagram terminated visas of hamas sympathizers [1:44:40] and deported pro-jihad foreign nationals got nato members to agree to raise defense spending [1:44:48] to five percent of gdp from two percent and they paid the five percent and they didn't pay the two [1:44:53] percent and by the way i did more for nato than any other person alive or dead nobody's done for nato [1:45:01] and i think for the most part they'll tell you that i think you could ask the secretary general [1:45:07] about that but he said it a lot i've done more for nato than anybody and i see all the stuff but [1:45:12] nato has to treat us fairly too the big fear i have with nato is we spend tremendous amounts of [1:45:18] money with nato and i know we'll come to their rescue but i i just really do question whether or not [1:45:23] they'll come to ours you know just i'm just asking just saying right you remember during the debate [1:45:32] just saying signed one trillion dollar investment in u.s military and next year we hopefully we'll [1:45:38] go to 1.5 trillion we're building battleships that are 100 times more powerful than the battleships of [1:45:45] world war ii which are the big beautiful those big beautiful things with the guns i said what about [1:45:50] bringing them out of dry dock they said sir what we're building will blow them away it's think of it [1:45:56] these ships are 100 times more powerful than the battleships that you see on victory at sea do you [1:46:03] ever see victory at sea what a great thing that is to watch renamed the department of defense into [1:46:10] the department of war which everyone loves by the way signed landmark critical minerals deals with [1:46:18] australia malaysia thailand ukraine japan and many others we're gonna have so much rare earth it's [1:46:25] actually not that rare getting it processed is rare but there's a lot of rare earth there's a lot of [1:46:30] earth around i can tell you withdrew from the corrupt world health organization where we were paying [1:46:38] hundreds of millions of dollars a year so we were paying 500 million dollars a year and china was [1:46:45] paying 37 million dollars a year i said why aren't we paying the same as china they said well nobody asked [1:46:53] i said china's got 1.4 billion people we have 350 million probably with all the illegals you know [1:47:01] china probably knows more accurately but we have much smaller in terms of the number of people we [1:47:08] have a much more powerful military but we have much smaller i rebuilt the military during my first term by [1:47:14] the way and while they gave away a lot to afghanistan the taliban which was just horrible seeing them [1:47:22] every year seeing them do that military down some dirty street is a disgrace but while they gave while [1:47:30] biden gave a lot of it away it's a tiny fraction compared to what we did i rebuilt the military and [1:47:35] now we're we're continuing to to build it and uh bigger and better we needed peace through strength but we [1:47:44] withdrew from the corrupt world health organization so i remember we were paying 500 million they were paying [1:47:52] 37 or 39 million and i said how come so i withdrew and they called we'll give you the same deal that [1:47:59] they had i said well it should be less than that because if they're at 37 and you have three times [1:48:07] four times the number of people even maybe five times i don't know so it should be less but i didn't [1:48:13] want to chisel around and i thought about it so i could have taken 500 million to 37 and everybody knew [1:48:21] what i chose not to do because it was actually very popular when i got out because they were terrible [1:48:27] and so i chose not to take that deal first thing biden did is go back into it you know what he paid [1:48:32] more than 500 million so i actually called them i said you know you can buy it for less you can make [1:48:38] a deal at 37 there's no reason to pay 500 they didn't care they paid more than 500 did you know that [1:48:45] they paid more than 500 million i made a deal at 37 i could have had 37 they were public about it [1:48:51] we'll give you the same deal that china has for 37 and they paid 500 they paid 500 million dollars [1:48:59] that's the way you ruin a country and it's the same attitude that you know you have on everything [1:49:04] else with these people they were terrible the anti-american un human rights council we ended the [1:49:09] un un relief and works agency we ended and the fake paris climate accord which was a ripoff of [1:49:17] america where we had to pay a trillion dollars and they were paying nothing china didn't kick in until [1:49:23] 2035 we kicked in immediately we were supposed to pay a trillion dollars russia went to a standard of [1:49:29] 1991 which was a dirtier standard but we had to pay top dollar so i terminated that another rick we [1:49:38] ended the woke lunacy and restored common sense abolished all discriminatory diversity equity and [1:49:45] inclusion dei policies throughout the federal government and the private sector they're gone everybody they're [1:49:50] god terrible terminated the green news scam and ended the insane electric vehicle mandate i love [1:49:59] electric vehicles that caused me a little problem with a man named elon but he understands and he's a [1:50:05] good guy get along but i said elon we can't have all electric cars just can't do it i like the electric [1:50:12] cars i like his car but uh in particular i like his car but we can't do that because some people don't want [1:50:21] an electric car by 2030 and to build the power stations all over the country would have cost four [1:50:29] trillion dollars four trillion that's more than any country has if you got china the united states and [1:50:34] everyone you couldn't do it and it would have taken years and yet they were supposed to be switching over [1:50:41] electric vehicle mandate some people don't like electric cars some people want hybrids some people want [1:50:48] regular gasoline powered cars we have more gasoline than anybody and now with venezuela we have you [1:50:54] know we have 62 percent of the market when you include venezuela so i ended the green news scam and [1:51:02] i ended the insane electric vehicle mandate now you can buy a gasoline powered car a hybrid and you can buy [1:51:10] a electric vehicle i mean if you think if you want electric you can buy it make a good deal on them right [1:51:18] now because they made a lot of them permanently stopped joe biden's ridiculous cafe standards that's [1:51:24] having to do with the environment so ridiculous cancel the eps absurd totally absurd tailpipe emission [1:51:32] standard which made you spend hundreds of thousands it made for hundreds of thousands of cars the numbers [1:51:41] the cost numbers were incredible that the consumer has to pay imposed 25 percent tariff on all foreign [1:51:46] automobiles and 100 percent tariff on chinese cars would don't come into the country because of [1:51:53] tariffs only because of tests we didn't have tariffs you wouldn't have any card yet we have now more car [1:51:59] factories being built in the united states than ever before because of tariffs if they take those tariffs [1:52:05] away china will eat our lunch they'll take all of our garbage now there's another way of doing it but it's [1:52:16] more cumbersome et cetera et cetera i don't want to scare you but it's more much more cumbersome not as [1:52:21] good not as good for national security as this we have a perfect system right now we're making a fortune [1:52:28] we've never been stronger and i hope the supreme court does the right thing for our country because [1:52:33] if they don't it's such a problem it's just so it would be so sad we're doing so well because of tariffs [1:52:41] and the people that are heading up the lawsuit like there's a guy named leonard leo's uh bad guy [1:52:54] and people that are very china oriented and foreign car oriented and foreign business oriented but in [1:53:00] particular china they're suing to get rid of tariffs because they don't want tariff like coke coke has [1:53:08] businesses outside of the united states if you have them outside you don't want tariffs but because of [1:53:13] tariffs they treat us well without tariffs they would treat us very badly as you saw for many years [1:53:20] they respect us more now than they ever have respected us by a lot and revoke the california [1:53:27] emissions waiver to stop san francisco communists from regulating the automobile industry and destroying [1:53:33] automobiles and the industry in the nation i was with bill ford of ford motors i was with all the [1:53:41] people at general motors the other day and they are making more money and building more cars than [1:53:46] they've ever they are doing so good all because of tariffs and what i've done and they're building [1:53:52] their plants all in the united states we opened anwar for drilling that's a big deal launched a massive [1:54:01] alaskan pipeline project to export natural gas to asia made a deal with south korea and with japan that [1:54:08] gives us money the likes of which no nobody's ever seen before signed executive orders to end biden's [1:54:15] war on coal and

[1:54:28] percent of their vote we banned trans genders from the military we don't want transgender in the military [1:54:36] ordered reinstatement of patriots expelled from our military with full back pay we had some people [1:54:43] that were terminated and they're coming back into our military fired the woke boards of visitors at [1:54:50] our military service academies the boards of visitors were run by radical left maybe communists [1:54:56] maybe not but they were still heavily radical left and they were bad for us signed an executive order to [1:55:03] remove anti-american propaganda from federal museums and national parks required the federal employees [1:55:09] to return to work in person or be fired we don't want them sitting in their home on their bed working [1:55:16] we want them in an office that we're paying for in washington dc or wherever it may be and we've largely [1:55:24] taken care of that mess that was crazy i guarantee you they're out on the ball fields i guarantee you [1:55:31] they're out playing golf and you can't run a country or a company that way i think it's happening even [1:55:38] so with countries and companies but we had so many of our federal workers they wouldn't come into work [1:55:44] signed an order banning all government censorship and restoring free speech made it the official [1:55:50] policy of the united states government that there are only two genders this was not a tough one two [1:55:57] genders can anybody guess what they are male and female i think the democrats know that too but they [1:56:05] refuse to admit it ban the use of puberty blockers hormone injections and other chemical and surgical [1:56:13] mutilation of children can you imagine saying this 15 years ago that we banned the use of puberty [1:56:21] blockers hormone injections and other chemical and surgical mutilation of our children you know when [1:56:28] i say it i say is do i have to say that i actually asked my people today yes sir because people [1:56:34] that's where the country went banned men from playing in women's sports big supreme court case [1:56:44] and i mean i can't believe it some of the justices were fighting hard for men to be able to play in [1:56:50] women's sports a couple of them i can't imagine it but i think anybody that rules that way should should [1:56:59] lose a lot of credibility but we banned men from playing in women's sports all you have to do is look [1:57:05] at the records look at weightlifting records look at swimming records look at track and field it's not [1:57:10] fair it's very uh demeaning to women banned transgender ideology and critical race theory from our schools [1:57:20] secured unprecedented settlements with brown university columbia university and many other [1:57:27] colleges including the university of pennsylvania where i went the great old wharton school of finance [1:57:33] to restore fairness and merit we're working with harvard right now

how hot he is ended taxpayer-funded student loan forgiveness [1:57:53] for radical left and anti-american activists can you believe it began the process of abolishing the [1:57:59] federal department of education and returning education back to the states and linda mcmahon is doing [1:58:05] a fantastic job ended joe biden's weaponization of our government and removed his hand-picked radical [1:58:12] left marxist prosecutors from the department of justice like deranged jack six smith he's a sick [1:58:20] son of a bitch they gave me the worst of the worst and here i am how did that happen how did that happen [1:58:30] he's a sick guy and leticia james is sick and alvin bragg is sick they're sick people and others [1:58:40] fanny fanny you can't call fanny she doesn't like it she

government trump is weaponizing government it's terrible can you imagine [1:59:09] they say to me about weaponized i don't weaponize anything but what they did to me nobody ever went [1:59:16] through what i went through and here i am in a place called the white house it's a beautiful place who [1:59:20] would have thought right signed legislation to cut all taxpayer funding to woke and biased npr and pbs and [1:59:32] they're sort of gone now i guess i heard they closed up they were terrible they were so unfair they [1:59:36] were so terrible officially reinstated columbus day i like the name

administration we're two and a half to three times better and faster slash va claims backlog to the [2:00:14] lowest number ever recorded created trump accounts starting with one thousand dollars for every newborn [2:00:22] baby this is something that's become so popular and i give mr and mrs michael dell dell computer uh who put [2:00:33] in six billion 250 million started with nothing and he actually invested all that money to give to [2:00:40] kids so that when they grow up they have an account that might be worth a lot of money it'll it'll be [2:00:45] riding with the markets and you know they can at 20 years old 21 years old they could have a hundred [2:00:52] thousand dollars they could have a lot of money that's going to be amazing but i give a lot of credit to [2:00:58] mr and mrs michael dell signed a ai executive order to ensure the united states dominates the future of [2:01:08] artificial intelligence so we're leading china we're leading the whole world we're producing more [2:01:13] electricity than we ever have because i'm allowing every one of those plants to build their own electric [2:01:18] facility we're giving them very very fast approvals unlike los angeles with the fire so the federal [2:01:25] government i want to give a lot of credit to lee zeldon the hardest approval for the 20 000 houses [2:01:31] or more that burned down in los angeles because they didn't have the water they didn't allow the [2:01:36] water to come down from the pacific northwest they routed the water into the pacific ocean so we had no [2:01:43] water there not no he had i would say open up the water open it up to the governor to the mayor they [2:01:52] didn't want to do it they wanted to protect the tiny little fish that's you know i said how can [2:01:57] you have a fish when you don't have any water it was just an excuse i guess but uh it's it's amazing [2:02:07] we took 20 000 houses and lee zeldon the the toughest permit is from the federal government within two [2:02:16] weeks every single permit was given to the people to build their houses then you have the incompetent mayor [2:02:24] of los angeles he's notable who decided to go to africa during the fire so you have this incompetent [2:02:30] mayor and i had it out with her the night when i got right after the fire i went there she said we're [2:02:35] working on it so that we can have everybody starting to build within two or three years remember that i [2:02:40] said you mean two or three days no i mean two or three years and the place went crazy well they still [2:02:49] haven't gotten their permits but every federal permit every single one has been given a year ago [2:02:57] and lee zeldon has done a great job and he's done a great job in the approval of all these big plants [2:03:02] and factories and all of the electricity that they're creating for themselves i said to [2:03:10] zuckerberg i said to all of them i said to jeff bezos i said to everybody mark zuckerberg couldn't [2:03:17] believe it he said you know where we're going to get all the electricity because you need double the [2:03:21] electricity that the curt the country currently makes just to fire up those big plants i said well [2:03:28] nobody can do that so what we're going to do is let you make your own electricity [2:03:33] nobody believed it and i said we're going to get your fast permit so we get them within two weeks [2:03:38] and they're coming up with some of the most incredible electric plants you've ever seen [2:03:43] so each one of those massive buildings ai or otherwise is building their own electricity they're [2:03:49] building their own plant and it's incredible many of them are under construction already they're going to [2:03:54] have uh we're leading ai we're leading china by a lot established a maha presidential commission [2:04:02] banned many artificial food dyes as you know issued new vaccine recommendations and created new real food [2:04:09] pyramid and bobby and dr ross have been incredible provided 12 billion in aid for american farmers just [2:04:16] gave them 12 billion dollars in aid because they got screwed by other nations and the number of drug [2:04:21] drug dealers have fallen every single month since i took office drug dealers are way down in the [2:04:28] united states and that's a small version of what's sitting right there that's just a small version [2:04:35] we took a country that was dead and it's the hottest country in the world right now and that's after one [2:04:41] year so let's go that's a lot of people please yeah go ahead thank you so much mr president uh i have [2:04:57] two questions for you one do you want uh your board of peace to replace the u.n well it might i mean the [2:05:05] u.n just hasn't been very helpful i'm a big fan of the u.n potential but it has never lived up to its [2:05:10] potential the u.n should have settled every one of the wars that i settled i never went to them i [2:05:17] never even thought to go to them uh they should be able to settle those wars they don't i i believe [2:05:23] you got to let the u.n continue because uh the potential is so great [2:05:27] you invited lula from brazil to be part of the board of peace i did what role do you expect him [2:05:36] to play especially well i like venezuela yeah and another one because they are you from brazil [2:05:42] yes the u and americos will just sign a trade agreement this weekend which is going to be the [2:05:49] the biggest uh trade zone free zone in the world uh at the moment you are talking a lot about tariffs [2:05:55] um what is your reaction to that so two questions well i look i just think this i think we have [2:06:02] trade like we've never had before we're doing better in trade than we ever have before we're [2:06:06] not being ripped off by every country in the world like we were before uh we're doing we're doing [2:06:13] numbers that nobody's ever thought possible we're the richest we ever were it's because of tariffs and [2:06:18] the proper use of tariffs and we're also the most secure as an example iceland without tariffs they [2:06:25] wouldn't even be talking to us about it so we'll see what happens i think it's going to work out [2:06:29] quite well right behind thank you mr president how would you characterize your relationship with [2:06:35] emmanuel nephron and keir starmer right now and have you spoken to them since your truth social [2:06:39] post no i haven't but i think i get along very well with them i mean they they always treat me well [2:06:45] they get a little bit rough when they're you know when i'm not around but when i'm around they treat [2:06:50] me very nicely and you know i like both of them they're both liberal uh they've got to straighten [2:06:58] out their countries uh you can't you know london is having a lot of problems and if you look at [2:07:03] paris got a lot of problems they have two problems immigration and energy they got to stop with the [2:07:10] windmills and they got to go back like uh uk has an unbelievable asset called the north sea [2:07:17] norway uses it makes a fortune they have a better section of it and they don't do it [2:07:22] they could straighten out their countries and it would be good but i get along very well [2:07:28] you uh told norway's prime minister are you from norway yeah you look like you would be but she [2:07:34] looks like she's from norway go ahead uh you told norway's prime minister that you not winning the [2:07:39] nobel peace prize made you feel less obligated to think purely of peace well i lost a lot of respect for [2:07:45] norway and i believe and i believe very strongly that norway controls the nobel prize but you have [2:07:52] to understand i settled eight wars i've had uh every one of those wars every participant wrote i didn't [2:07:58] ask him to do it they sent in strong recommend you know they make recommendations for that but i [2:08:04] settled eight was no president's probably ever settled one war i don't know think of it i did eight [2:08:09] the reason i do it is because it's easy for me to do and i didn't do it for a nobel prize i did it [2:08:15] because i'm saving a lot of lives i'm trying to settle the final one i'm trying to do russia ukraine [2:08:21] and when russia's ready ukraine's not when ukraine's ready russia's done but they're losing 25 000 [2:08:27] people a month on average and i'm trying to get that one done but no i feel but i feel that [2:08:33] norway has tremendous control over who gets to know the nobel prize despite what they say [2:08:38] how far are you willing to go to acquire green you'll find out [2:08:46] mr president kevin has said that those two thousand dollar tariff rebate checks would be up to congress [2:08:54] to decide whether or not to disperse that do you agree with kevin on that or do you think you can do [2:08:59] that unilaterally i don't i don't think we would have to go the congress out but you know we'll find [2:09:04] out the reason we're even talking about it is that we have so much money coming in from tariffs [2:09:10] that we'll be able to issue at least a two thousand dollar dividend and also pay down debt [2:09:15] for the country uh but we do a two thousand dollar dividend to the people of our country [2:09:20] would probably set a limit of you know income limit uh where it made sense but uh we will be [2:09:26] able to make a very substantial dividend to the people of our country uh i believe we can do that [2:09:32] without congress uh last night on true social um you said that the british plan to hand the base [2:09:40] of diego garcia over to mauritius and then rent it back was an act of great stupidity previously you [2:09:46] backed that bill is it now your position that the deal should not go ahead i think that they you know [2:09:51] when they originally were going to do it they were talking about doing some concept of ownership [2:09:56] but now they're looking to essentially just do a lease and sell it and i'm against that you know [2:10:01] it's a reasonably nothing like greenland but it's a reasonably important uh area of the globe [2:10:08] not to anywhere near greenland but i think they should keep it i don't know why they're doing do [2:10:13] they need money mr president uh with your support to the syrian government most probably you avoided [2:10:22] another civil war and a bloodshed in syria especially after the fall i did a good job i did a good job [2:10:29] uh the syrian government the last two weeks uh had to use some force to to implement its force on [2:10:37] uh specific areas and to keep the prisoners the terrorist prisoners which are some of the worst in [2:10:44] the world at bay so they they were able to keep that he's working very hard the president of syria is [2:10:51] working very very hard strong guy tough guy uh pretty rough resume but you're not going to put a choir [2:10:59] boy in there and you know get the job done uh i spoke with him yesterday because we were talking [2:11:04] about the prisons and you know what was going on we have some of the worst terrorists in the world in [2:11:08] those prisons and he's watching them mr president gavin newsom is going to be at davos if he's not [2:11:15] already there you're probably going to run into him i presume that this is for him to raise his [2:11:20] platform for 2028 but what do you anticipate his foreign policy platform is going to be i don't know i mean [2:11:25] i don't know that he's going to be the nominee i i know this i had a very good relationship with gavin [2:11:31] newsom when we were you know in office together i was president he was the governor of california we [2:11:37] had a really he would talk about it often and somewhere we just went astray i just i just hate [2:11:43] the way california is being run we actually have people leaving it's never happened before but i hate the [2:11:50] way it's being run he and i had a very good relationship really uh close close to the word [2:11:56] exceptional but now uh we seem not to thank you president president president you spoke earlier [2:12:04] mr president you're you've been hearing from alice thank you thank you so much president trump [2:12:08] cara castron over from lindell tv and you spoke earlier about the 2020 election uh now that uh maduro [2:12:15] maduro is in u.s custody and he was criminally charged has any more information emerged that you [2:12:20] could share with us regarding venezuelan election software and venezuelan ties to tampering with the [2:12:25] 2020 election and would you consider speaking to maduro personally in prison uh in new york to get [2:12:32] some answers on venezuela's involvement with the 2020 election no i don't think i would be doing that i [2:12:36] think my lawyers would be very unhappy if i yeah they've learned they've learned some things please [2:12:42] what happens to the tariff threat to greenland if the supreme court comes out and rules against you on [2:12:48] the tariffs and well i'll have to use something else i mean look you know take a look at the word [2:12:53] license take a look at other things i mean we have other alternatives but the what we're doing now is [2:12:58] the best the strongest the fastest the easiest the least complicated [2:13:05] if you move ahead um with the greenland related tariffs on europe you secured almost a trillion dollars [2:13:12] of commitments from them to invest in the united states does that go kaput out the window if that [2:13:17] happens uh i doubt it look they want to they need that agreement very badly with us they really do [2:13:22] they they fought very hard to get it so i doubt that but we'll see what happens we have a lot of [2:13:27] meetings scheduled on greenland i'm leaving tonight as you know davos and we have a lot of meetings [2:13:34] scheduled on greenland and i think things are going to work out pretty well actually [2:13:39] thank you mr president could you uh still go to paris for the g7 emergency meeting as offered by [2:13:48] president macron no i wouldn't do that [2:13:55] because you know emmanuel emmanuel is not going to be there very long and you know there's no longevity [2:14:02] there he's a friend of mine he's a nice guy i like macron but but he's not he's not going to be there [2:14:07] very much longer as you know and i think you know i have meetings with the people that are [2:14:12] directly involved not uh some of the people you're talking thank you so much thank you so much mr [2:14:21] president i've never seen this room like this is this a celebration of the first year have you ever [2:14:29] seen it i've never seen this many i hope we have a very good i hope we have a very good structural floor [2:14:35] you know this used to be a swimming pool you're sitting over a swimming pool i could see that [2:14:40] happening but this we need a good structure here don't we huh yeah thank you so much mr [2:14:46] president happy one year anniversary thank you and my question is sorry on syria the kurds as the most [2:14:52] loyal u.s partners facing attacks by some syrian elements within the syrian government will you do [2:14:58] to ensure the kurdish rights protected on their effective forces against terrorism in rojava syria [2:15:03] continue as the kurdish see you as a president does not abandon his alliance well i like the kurds [2:15:09] but just so you understand the kurds were paid tremendous amounts of money were given oil and [2:15:14] other things so uh they were doing it for themselves more so than they were doing for us but we got along [2:15:19] with the kurds and we are trying to protect the kurds that's correct ahead of your speech in davos can [2:15:25] you give us a preview of what we can expect as far as you know laying out the plans for americans to be [2:15:29] able to buy homes i think more than anything else what i'm going to be speaking about is the tremendous [2:15:35] success that we've had in one year i didn't think we could do it this fast uh think of it it's just now [2:15:41] 12 months and you know i say it often we have the most successful country in the world we have the [2:15:46] hottest country anywhere in the world by far and this country would have been absolutely stone cold dead [2:15:53] uh and i'm going to be talking about it i'm going to be because you know i a lot of them could use some [2:15:58] of the advice as to what we did they need energy that you take a look at their energy polish they're [2:16:03] going to destroy themselves with what they're doing with the windmills and all the nonsense [2:16:08] they need energy help badly or they're going to be in big trouble and they need immigration [2:16:14] help badly how much longer do you want to go i do [2:16:19] i have i have a very i have a very important call with president erdogan who i like who i like a lot [2:16:31] and i want one or two more questions go ahead thank you mr president thank you mr president [2:16:39] go ahead please go ahead thank you mr president yes the red blouse go ahead you talked a lot at the [2:16:48] beginning of this about the economy some positive economic indicators polling shows the majority of [2:16:53] americans don't feel the economy is doing well are you worried you're making the same mistake as [2:16:58] president biden no i hope i don't make the same mistake as him look i inherited a terrible i mean [2:17:05] it's a great question because we inherited a terrible terrible mess uh between the border between all the [2:17:12] problems the whole country was falling apart and in 12 months less than 12 months i mean in 12 months [2:17:18] we have the strongest border we've ever had we have prices that are much much lower than they were for [2:17:23] the last time we inherited very high prices we inherited remember this inflation was at a historic [2:17:31] high we had never had inflation like that they say 48 years but whether it's 48 years or ever [2:17:37] we had the highest inflation in my opinion that we've ever had prices because of that were very high [2:17:44] i inherited we brought down eggs immediately remember the first news conference they were screaming at me [2:17:49] about eggs i was in the position for two days and they're squint we brought eggs down to lower than [2:17:56] what they were before and by the way they continue that way we brought the prices down from when i came [2:18:01] into office and from what biden had way down we're going to bring them down further but the job we did is [2:18:07] is a miracle the one of the reasons i'm doing this today is to explain we inherited a mess and we've made [2:18:14] it a beautiful beautiful picture think of gasoline at a dollar 99 in many states one dollar and 99 cents a [2:18:23] gallon it was four fifty five dollars in some cases six or seven dollars we're at a dollar 99 and energy is [2:18:32] so big that with energy everything else comes down but the prices are coming way down and they're gonna [2:18:39] we're gonna bring them down further but we started up here with these guys we inherited a country that [2:18:44] was broken we inherited a country and i said i have a very warm spot we've done very well with venezuela [2:18:51] and and by the way that even in itself is going to help us bring down the oil prices i mean the venezuelan [2:18:58] oil we've taken 50 billion 50 million gallons of oil we've taken 50 million barrels of oil out of [2:19:09] venezuela in the first four days we've got millions of barrels of oil left we're selling [2:19:17] it on the open market we're bringing down oil prices incredibly and when they come down and they've [2:19:22] already come down again one dollar and 99 cents a gallon for oil nobody thought they'd ever see all right [2:19:30] one or two more go ahead go go go yes i want to ask you about iran is a military option still on the table [2:19:43] and can you assure us that the killing in iran has stopped and when we got to your peace council [2:19:49] which members have to pay one so with iran are you from iran no i cover the white house where are you [2:19:54] from i'm palestinian american so with iran they were going to hang 837 people and i let them be known that [2:20:03] and we let them know that if that happens that will be a very bad day for them and they decided not to do [2:20:10] it they didn't hang the people i can't tell you what's going to happen in the future but supposedly [2:20:14] they've taken that off the table but they were going to last week they were going to hang on [2:20:18] thursday or wednesday one they were going to hang i think 837 people and they didn't hang anybody [2:20:27] so we're just going to have to see what happens with iran is the military option [2:20:43] go ahead i'll take your question okay thank you thank you thank you go ahead right here thank you [2:20:47] mr president um you promised during your second inaugural to always put america first i'm curious [2:20:53] how would you winning the nobel peace prize improve the lives of average everyday americans [2:20:58] why is this prize so important it wouldn't improve the lives of any what what improved the lives of [2:21:04] people are people that are living i saved probably tens of millions of lives in the wars you know if you [2:21:11] add up the numbers just just if you look at uh if you look at any one of those wars you're talking [2:21:17] about millions of people you multiply times eight but when you look at india and pakistan that could [2:21:23] have been 10 15 20 million people could have been more than that so i saved millions of people so [2:21:28] that to me is the big thing you suggested a moment ago that perhaps the reason why a positive story [2:21:37] about the economy isn't getting through is because of you know bad communications people but are average [2:21:43] americans wrong to still feel high prices and how much longer does the white house hope that they [2:21:49] so i think a lot of people a lot of people are listening to the fake news a little bit [2:21:54] and i'm not blaming anybody i think i i blame ourselves i think we've done a much better job than [2:21:59] we're able to promote we're not promoting we're doing a great job and we're sort of letting the [2:22:04] promotion take care of itself one of the reasons i'm doing this news conference i think it's important [2:22:09] we have taken a mess and made it really good it's going to get even better but if you look at prices from [2:22:16] a year or a year and a half ago you look at the biden prices they were way up through the sky [2:22:22] and you know they use the word affordability they just say affordability and they don't [2:22:26] talk about it they created the affordability problem and we have we are solving it we have [2:22:32] solved a lot of it again everybody agrees in this room i think gasoline prices have come per gallon way [2:22:39] down when that happens everything else comes down but they've come down way down [2:22:43] uh many of the groceries have come way down it's all happening and it's happening strong [2:22:49] but if you go back a year a year and a half two years take a look at those prices and look at the [2:22:54] prices now [2:23:03] where are you from i'm from spain um thank you uh you made a condition that uh the political prisoners [2:23:11] should be freed it seems that they are not being as fast as they promised in the beginning would [2:23:16] that be an issue for the current government they've agreed that they're going to let i guess most of [2:23:21] them out depends on what they did but they have released a lot of they have a lot released a lot of [2:23:28] political prisoners in venezuela president earlier on last year you had mentioned you had indicated that [2:23:35] you want to take back the panama canal i know we've looked we've heard a lot about greenland is that still [2:23:40] on the table i don't want to tell you that [2:23:45] sort of i might i must say sort of that's sort of okay one more uh yes blonde blue [2:23:56] yes go ahead ma'am go ahead with the blue holding the computer a consequence of your determination [2:24:05] to take control of greenland is the ultimate breakup of the nato alliance is that a price you're willing [2:24:10] to pay uh you mean the breakup of of it's very interesting so i think something's going to happen [2:24:17] that's going to be very good for everybody nobody's done more for nato than i have as i said before [2:24:26] in every way getting them to go up to five percent of gdp was something that nobody thought was [2:24:33] possible and pay at two percent they weren't paying at five percent they are paying and they're buying a [2:24:39] lot of things from us and they're giving them i guess to ukraine that's up to them but they're [2:24:43] giving them to whoever they're giving them to but they're buying a lot i think that we will work [2:24:49] something out when nato is going to be very happy and where we're going to be very happy but we need [2:24:54] it for security purposes we need it for national security and even world security it's very important [2:24:59] how about it very much um first of all last year you told me that you believe that the reason you [2:25:06] won the election is because god put you in this place so you that you could save the world looking [2:25:11] back one year do you feel like god is proud of the effort that you i do actually i think god is very [2:25:17] proud of the job i've done and that includes for religion you know we're protecting a lot of people [2:25:23] that are being killed christians and jewish people and lots of people are being protected by me that [2:25:29] wouldn't be protected by another type of precedent uh no i think uh i think a lot of people are very [2:25:35] proud of the job we've done we've had an amazing year this has been one of the greatest years even [2:25:40] some people that wouldn't necessarily love me instinctively they're saying this was an incredible [2:25:46] year we've had an incredible year economically uh look at our border our border was a disaster [2:25:52] people poured million it was an invasion into our country of a lot of very bad people good people too [2:25:58] but a lot of very bad people from prisons and drug dealers and gangs and horrible people murderers [2:26:06] thousands and thousands of murders allowed into our country and we now have the strongest border of any [2:26:13] country there's probably not a country i guess north korea is a pretty strong border by the way but [2:26:18] there's not a country in the world that has a border like we do and we took it from the worst [2:26:23] board we had the worst border in the world now we have one of the strongest borders [2:26:27] of us all right one more one more question you said you're hoping something's going to get [2:26:34] worked out in greenland but greenlanders have made it clear they don't want to be part of the u.s [2:26:38] well i haven't i have the right to take away that self-determination when i speak to them [2:26:41] i'm sure they'll be thrilled [2:26:47] mr president are you committed to keeping the u.s in nato i've i've had a such a good relationship [2:26:53] i've made it so much better so much stronger it's so good now nato is so much stronger now [2:27:00] i don't agree with a lot of the things they've done but that was done before i got there [2:27:05] i think nato's been good sometimes it's overrated sometimes it's not but we have a strong nato [2:27:12] when i came here we had a weak nato we had a nato at two percent and they weren't paying you had a [2:27:16] uh nothing nato uh nato's whether you like it or not it's only as good as we are if nato doesn't [2:27:25] have us nato is not very strong [2:27:39] we've heard a long list of accomplishments from the last year could you cherry pick the top three [2:27:43] and then looking forward what are your three most important priorities of 2026 [2:27:47] so i think the building of a really powerful military has been a great achievement and that [2:27:51] would include the venezuela thing that would include uh the attack on iran and the wiping out of the [2:27:58] nuclear threat i think that's been really amazing what we've done militarily i think what we've done [2:28:04] in business has been incredible we have 18 trillion dollars coming in plants are being built all over [2:28:09] the thousands of plants are being built all over the country 18 trillion is a record no country has [2:28:15] ever come anywhere even close to that i think that's a record and i think uh that uh most favored nations [2:28:21] for drugs is something that nobody thought they'd be able to get tariffs helped me there because the [2:28:27] nations would have never gone along with it if i wasn't able to say if you don't go along with it [2:28:32] we're going to put a 10 or 15 or 20 tariff on your nation and they went along and our drug prices are [2:28:38] going to come down at numbers never even seen before never even thought possible before so those [2:28:43] would be three things thank you thank you [2:28:55] how was the game
