這張桌子是壞掉的
非常感謝您
我很榮幸有一個朋友
因為我們一起經歷了這件事
我們相處得很好
整個時間
我認識他很年輕
現在他只是個年輕人
但他做得非常好
主席
很榮幸有您
非常感謝您
您對您的國家非常有信心
我們非常欣賞您的工作
因為您想要阻止犯罪
我們也想要阻止犯罪
這非常有效
我想向塞爾維多州的人說聲你好
他們有一個非常好的總統
我認識他很久
我認識他很年輕
馬克
他比您還年輕
他開始很年輕
他永遠會變得更年輕
非常年輕
但我想感謝您
做得非常好
我非常欣賞您
非常感謝您
這是我的榮幸
在總統和世界領導人的辦公室
我們非常高興
我們非常渴望幫助
我們知道您有犯罪問題
和恐怖分子問題
您需要幫助
我們是個很小的國家
如果我們能幫助
我們一定會幫助
我們把世界的謀殺資本
這就是記者所說的
把世界的謀殺資本
轉移到最安全的國家
那就是塞爾維多州
有時候他們說
我們入獄了千萬人
我喜歡說
我們實際上解放了百萬人
所以
非常好
誰給了他那筆錢
你認為我可以使用它嗎
是的
實際上
總統
您有三百五十萬人
需要解放
但是解放三百五十萬人
您必須入獄一些人
這就是它的方式
您不可以
釋放犯罪人
以為犯罪
會隨時消失
您必須入獄他們
所以您可以解放
三百五十萬美國人
他們要求
犯罪結束
和恐怖分子結束
您可以做到
您已經在做了
我肯定
人們在街上
這是一條很長的路
因為您只是
開始了您的第二屆
但是
很明顯
在邊境的數字上
甚至在民主黨系列
他們會得到幫助
來自世界觀
所以我真的很高興
在這裡
很榮幸
也很榮幸能夠幫助他們
我們發生了很糟糕的事情
我們有一個政府
讓人們自由地進入我們的國家
不僅來自南美
而是來自世界各地
包括在非洲
亞洲
世界各地
歐洲
歐洲的複雜部分
他們來自監獄
來自心理學設施
來自警察
來自賓夕蘭的警察
還有其他地方
有千萬人
甚至有百萬人
來自其他地方
我們有21萬萬人
但是很多來自那些地方的人
有著龐大的比數
他們在某些情況下
是暴力犯罪犯
我們有11,088個
有名的暴徒
其中的半個
殺了更多的人
這被人允許
他為了我們國家
做出了很不可思議的事
我們正在修正
我們正在拆除
但他們做的
And what that party did to our country, open borders.
Anybody could come in.
As soon as I heard that, I said,
Every prison is gonna be emptied out into our country.
That's what happened.
And we're straightening it out.
And we just had numbers.
We had the highest recruiting numbers
In the history of our country
Going into police departments.
And a year ago, we had the lowest numbers.
You couldn't hire a police chief.
Nobody's ever seen it.
And the military now,
Marines, the army, air force, coast guard,
Every slot is...
I mean, we have the best numbers we've ever had.
We call it recruitment numbers.
And we've never had anything like it.
We had records on every single...
At every single level.
But very important, the policemen.
The policemen are joining forces now
That we really...
We're having a hard time with policemen
Because we weren't protecting our police.
And we cherish our police.
The police are great.
And the firemen and everybody else.
But we have the highest numbers
That we've ever had.
The most enthusiasm.
We have great enthusiasm.
And on trade and other things,
We're doing great.
We're taking in billions and billions of dollars.
We made...
Two weeks ago,
I gave them a little bit of a pause
Because, you know,
You have to show a little flexibility.
We go back to what we have to do.
The markets have been very strong
Once they got used to it.
But we were losing
Two billion dollars a day.
There's no company big like this.
But this is the biggest deal ever made.
Now we're making
Three billion dollars a day.
We're a great country.
But we had stupid people running this country.
And I can say it.
What they've done to us at the border
Should never and can never be forgotten.
It's a sin, what they did.
And you are helping us out.
And we appreciate it.
Thanks.
Actually, what you're doing with the border
Is remarkable.
It has dropped, what, 95%?
It's incredible.
Okay.
As of this morning, 99%.
99.1% to be exact.
Why are those numbers not in the media?
Well, they get out with the fake news.
You know, like CNN.
CNN over here doesn't want to put them out
Because they don't like...
They don't like putting out good numbers.
They don't really like putting out...
Because I think they hate our country, actually.
Yeah.
But it's a shame.
You're right.
Isn't that a great question?
Why doesn't the media...
Why don't they put out numbers?
Yeah, 99%.
I mean, it's crazy, right?
We're doing the same.
Christie, could you maybe say a couple of words
About the border, how we're doing?
You know, it's just been absolutely phenomenal
What a great leader can do.
Clear direction.
Our laws matter.
We should only have people in our country
That love us.
And the border patrol and our ICE officers
And law enforcement officers
Have done fantastic work.
So we're proud of them.
Now we just need to get the criminals
And murderers and rapists
And dangerous gang members
And terrorist organizations
Out of our country.
So, Mr. President Kelly,
We thank you very much for your partnership.
It has been wonderful for us
To be able to have somewhere
To send the worst of the worst
And someone to partner with.
And we'd like to continue that partnership
Because it's been a powerful message of consequences.
Mr. President, you wanted people to know
That there was consequences
If you break our laws
And harm our people
And endanger families.
And this is a clear consequence
For the worst of the worst
That we have somewhere to put them.
Thank you very much.
Yeah, we even had this gang member
From Venezuela, one of the ones you sent.
And we interviewed him
Just, you know, to get some information, etc.
From them.
And he said, oh, you know,
I got arrested six times.
But they released me the six times.
So I should be released again.
And then we said, well, what's the last thing you do?
And he said, well, I shot a cop
In the leg, but I didn't kill him.
I just shot him in the leg.
And we're like, this guy was arrested six times
Here in the United States, six times.
He was released six times.
And in the last, no, he was released five times.
And the last time he was sent to El Salvador, right?
So he's not getting a release.
But the last thing, he shot a cop, actually.
And he shot him in the leg.
So these are, you know, like you said, yeah.
Yeah, there's something broken.
The liberal establishment.
But they're not running things anymore in this country.
And we're run by, and I don't say conservative.
I don't say anything.
We're run by people with great common sense.
Yeah, common sense.
Because it's all common sense.
It's not liberal conservative.
It's common sense.
Like, do you allow men to play in women's sports?
Do you allow men to box your women in boxers?
I know you have a lot of boxers.
That's violence.
That's violence against women.
It's abuse of women.
But we have people that fight to the death
because they think men should be able to play in women's sports.
And some of those sports, it wouldn't matter much.
But it still matters.
But some of them are very dangerous for women.
Some years ago, like you said, a decade ago or so,
women's rights movements were pressuring
so that we enacted specific laws
to avoid men abusing women.
And I think those laws were great
because there were a lot of men abusing women.
But now some of the same people are trying to backtrack
and actually trying to make new laws
allowing men to abuse women in sports.
So actually, that doesn't make sense.
It doesn't make sense.
You know, they have weightlifting records, right?
A woman gets up and swings.
She's incredible.
A guy gets up and beats her by 100 pounds.
What are you going to do?
A record that hadn't been broken in 18 years.
You know, they put on an ounce and an ounce,
quarter of an ounce, eighth of an ounce.
For 18 years now, they have a guy come up peeing.
The whole thing is crazy.
But they continue to fight.
And I don't like talking about it
because I want to save it for just before the next election.
I say to my people, don't even talk about it
because they'll change.
And I watched this morning.
There was a congressman fighting to the death
for men to play against women in sports.
And you say to yourself, why?
What are they doing, right?
What are they doing?
But your country is not too big in that.
No, of course not.
We're big in protecting women.
Good.
It's a very important form of protection.
And as you can see, most of my cabins are women.
That's impressive.
Yeah, yeah.
And they're not DEI hires or anything.
They're just great at what they do.
That's right.
This is very impressive.
This is a first.
We've had women,
but we've never had three of them right here.
Four and three women.
And look who we have.
You guys feel a little bit mistreated?
That's good.
I like it.
We've been advanced.
I've been very advanced in that regard, too.
We have Pam, who's been so fantastic.
Christie.
Christie and the most powerful woman
they see anywhere in the world.
They're all afraid of her.
Susie Wells.
They say, oh, she's dumb.
Most powerful woman in the world,
according to magazines.
What do I know?
But I think she probably is.
Yeah, she probably is.
Congratulations.
And you know, Steven has done such a great job.
Thank you, sir.
We have great people.
He's very famous, too.
But we love working with TV MCs.
He really lets them have it, right?
Yeah, exactly.
There's no games.
No, no, no.
It's very good.
He knows.
Do you have any questions, please?
Mr. President, no.
No, let's not start with CNN
because they're just so wrong.
Yeah, please.
Yeah, thank you, Mr. President.
You repeatedly mentioned last night
that Russia's attack on Ukraine was a mistake.
What is the exact mistake?
And have you given Putin a deadline
to actually move toward a ceasefire?
The mistake was letting the war happen.
If Biden were competent
and if Zelensky were competent
and I don't know that he is.
We had a rough session with this guy over here.
He just kept asking for more and more.
That war should have never been allowed to happen.
That war.
I went four years
and Putin wouldn't even bring it up.
And as soon as the election was rigged
and I wasn't here,
that war started.
There was no way
that war should have been allowed to happen.
And Biden should have stopped it.
And you take a look at Putin.
I'm not saying anybody's an angel.
But I will tell you,
I went four years
and it wasn't even a question.
He would never.
And I told him,
don't do it.
You're not going to do it.
And it was the apple of his eye.
But there was no way
that he would have done it.
All you had to do is lower oil prices.
If you lowered oil prices,
Biden kept the prices so high
because he made it impossible to get it.
If you lowered oil prices,
you would have never had the war.
But you wouldn't have had it with me anyway.
That war would have never happened.
And I think it's a great abuse.
So now what do you do?
You get a country
where 25% of its land is gone
and the best locations
where millions of people are killed.
You know, you haven't reported accurately the death.
And this was Biden's war.
And I'm trying to stop it.
And I think we're going to do a good job.
I hope we're going to do.
They lose 2,500 young people a week.
Think on average.
Now they're Russians and they're Ukrainians.
But it's 2,000.
We don't care.
It's like whatever it is.
They're not from your country.
They're not from mine.
But I want to stop it.
2,500 is a killing field.
It's like the Civil War.
You take a look.
I look at the satellite pictures.
This should not be happening in our time.
Of course, our time can be pretty violent as we know.
But that's a war
that should have never been allowed to start.
And Biden could have stopped it.
And Zelensky could have stopped it.
And Putin should have never started it.
Everybody is to blame.
Have you spoken to President Zelensky, sir,
about his offer to purchase more Patriot missile batteries?
Oh, I don't know.
He's always looking to purchase missiles.
You know, he's against...
Listen, when you start a war,
you got to know that you can win the war, right?
You don't start a war against somebody
that's 20 times your size
and then hope that people give you some missiles.
We didn't give them what we gave.
Remember, I gave them javelins.
That's how they won their first big battle
with the tanks that got stuck in the mud.
And they took them out with javelins.
They have an expression that Obama at the time...
Obama gave them sheets and Trump gave them javelins.
But it's something that should have never happened.
It's really a shame.
The towns are destroyed.
Towns and cities are, you know, largely destroyed.
They have the spires, you know,
the beautiful spires that go up.
They say they were the most beautiful in the world
in Ukraine for whatever reason,
but the most beautiful in the world.
They're mostly laying on their side,
shattered and broken.
And most importantly,
you have millions of people dead.
Millions of people dead
because of three people.
I would say three people.
Let's say Putin, number one.
But let's say Biden,
who had no idea what the hell he was doing.
Number two, and Zelensky.
And all I can do is try and stop it.
That's all I want to do.
I want to stop the killing.
And I think we're doing well in that regard.
I think you'll have some
very good proposals very soon.
Last question, sir.
Have you distributed a motive
through the FBI investigation
behind the attack on Governor Josh Shapiro
over the weekend?
No, I haven't.
But the attacker was not a fan of Trump.
I understand.
Just from what I read
and from what I've been told.
The attacker basically
wasn't a fan of anybody.
It's probably just a whack job.
And certainly a thing like that
cannot be allowed to happen.
So what relation with President Bukele
the best guarantee that this time
you won't terminate the temporary
protected status law?
I have a great relationship with this man.
I have the best relationship with him.
We've known each other.
I've known him since
he was a very young man, as I said.
Very, very young.
And I was impressed.
I said, look at this guy.
In fact, he sort of looked like a teenager.
He looked like a teenager.
I said, what kind of a country is this?
He grew up well in the last five years.
Do you support the extension
for nationals of El Salvador
under temporary protected status?
Do you support the extension?
Let's hear the question
from this very low-rated anchor at CB.
Thank you, President Trump.
Do you plan to ask President Bukele
to help return the man
who your administration says
was mistakenly deported?
The man who was mistakenly
deported to El Salvador?
Well, let me ask Pam.
Would you answer that question?
Sure, President.
First and foremost,
he was illegally in our country.
He had been illegally in our country.
And in 2019, two courts,
an immigration court
and an appellate immigration court
ruled that he was a member
of MS-13 and he was illegally
in our country.
Right now, it was a paperwork.
It was additional paperwork
that needed to be done.
That's up to El Salvador
if they want to return him.
That's not up to us.
The Supreme Court ruled, President,
that if, as El Salvador
wants to return him,
this is international matters,
foreign affairs,
if they wanted to return him,
we would facilitate it,
meaning provide a plane.
So, will you return him, President?
You are doing a great job.
Thank you.
Mr. Taylor, wait a minute.
Can you just also respond
to that question?
Because, you know, it's asked by CNN
and they always ask it with a slant
because they're totally slanting
because they don't know what's happening.
That's why nobody's watching them.
But would you answer that question also, please?
Yes, gladly.
So, as Pam mentioned,
there's an illegal alien from El Salvador.
So, with respect to you,
he's a citizen of El Salvador.
So, it's very arrogant even
for American media to suggest
that we would even tell El Salvador
how to handle their own citizens
as a starting point.
As two immigration courts found
that he was a member of MS-13,
when President Trump declared MS-13
to be a foreign terrorist organization,
that meant that he was no longer eligible
under federal law,
which I'm sure you know,
you're very familiar with the INA,
that he was no longer eligible
for any form of immigration relief
in the United States.
So, he had a deportation order
that was valid,
which meant that under our law,
he's not even allowed to be present
in the United States
and had to be returned
because of the foreign terrorist designation.
This issue was then
by a district court judge
completely inverted
and a district court judge
tried to tell the administration
that they had to kidnap
a citizen of El Salvador
and fly him back here.
That issue was raised to the Supreme Court
and the Supreme Court said
the district court order was unlawful
and its main components
were reversed 9-0 unanimously,
stating clearly
that neither Secretary of State
nor the President
could be compelled by anybody
to forcibly retrieve
a citizen of El Salvador
from El Salvador,
who, again, is a member of MS-13,
which, as I'm sure you understand,
rapes little girls,
murders women,
murders children,
is engaged in the most barbaric activities
in the world,
and I can promise you
if he was your neighbor,
you would move right away.
So you don't plan to ask for
anybody to get him back?
But the ruling in the Supreme Court,
Steve, was it 9-0?
Yes, it was 9-0.
In our favor?
In our favor,
against the district court ruling,
saying that no district court
has the power
to compel the foreign policy function
of the United States.
As Pam said,
the ruling solely stated
that if this individual
at El Salvador's sole discretion
was sent back to our country,
that we could deport him a second time.
No version of this
legally ends up with him
ever living here,
because he is a citizen of El Salvador.
That is the president of El Salvador.
Your questions about it
per the court
can only be directed to him.
I ask President Bukele...
What is your...
Can President Bukele weigh in on this?
Do you plan to return him?
Well, I guess...
I'm supposed to have suggested
that I smuggle a terrorist
into the United States, right?
So how could we...
How can I smuggle...
How can I return him to the United States?
It's like I smuggle him
into the United States,
or whether I do it first,
I'm not going to do it.
It's like...
I mean, the question is preposterous.
How can I smuggle a terrorist
into the United States?
I don't have the power
to return him to the United States.
But you can release him
inside of El Salvador.
Yeah, but I'm not releasing...
I mean, we're not very fond
of releasing terrorists
into our country.
I mean, we just turned
the murder capital of the...
of this country,
the Western Hemisphere,
and you want us to go back
into the...
releasing criminals
so we can go back
to being the murder capital
of the world?
No, that's not going to happen.
Well, they'd love to have a criminal,
you know, released into our country.
I mean, there's...
That's a fascination.
They would love it.
Yeah.
They're sick.
These are sick people.
Mark, again.
I mean, Stephen, I outlined it.
I don't understand
what the confusion is.
This individual
is a citizen of El Salvador.
He was illegally in the United States
and was returned to his country.
That's where you deport people,
back to their country of origin,
except for Venezuela
that wasn't refusing
to take people back
or places like that.
I can tell you this, Mr. President.
No...
The foreign policy
of the United States
is conducted
by the President of the United States,
not by a court.
And no court in the United States
has a right to conduct
the foreign policy of the United States.
It's that simple.
End of story.
And that's what the Supreme Court held,
by the way, to Marco's point.
The Supreme Court said
exactly what Marco said,
that no court has the authority
to compel the foreign policy
of the United States.
We won a case 9-0,
and people like CNN
are portraying it as a loss, as usual,
because they want foreign terrorists
in the country
who kidnap women and children.
But President Trump,
his policy is
foreign terrorists
that are here illegally
get expelled from the country,
which, by the way, is a 9-10 issue.
Well, the President, Mr. President,
you said that if the Supreme Court
said someone needed to be returned,
that you would abide by that.
You said that on Air Force One
just a few days ago.
And they said that it must be facilitated.
Why don't you just say,
isn't it wonderful
that we're keeping criminals
out of our country?
Why can't you just say that?
Why do you go over and over?
And that's why nobody watches you anymore.
You know, you have no credibility.
Please, go ahead.
President Trump, thank you so much.
How many illegal criminals
are you planning on
exporting to El Salvador?
And, President Bukele,
how many are you willing to take
from the U.S.?
As many as possible.
And I just asked the President,
you know, it's this massive complex
that he built, jail complex.
I said, can you build
some more of them, please?
As many as we can get
out of our country
that we're allowed in here
by incompetent Joe Biden
through open borders.
Open borders?
You probably hear open borders
and you can't even understand it
because nobody can understand.
Nobody smart or with common sense
can understand it.
So we have millions of people
that should not be in this country
that are dangerous.
Not just people
because we have people,
but we have millions of people
that are murderers, drug dealers.
They've been allowed
to come into our country
by other countries
that were very smart
when they heard that
this very low-IQ president...
And by the way, I took my cognitive exam
as part of my physical exam
and I got the highest mark
and one of the doctors said,
Sir, I've never seen anybody
get that kind of...
That was the highest mark.
I hope you're happy with that.
Although they haven't been bugging me
too much to take a cognitive,
but I did do my physical
and it was released.
I hope you're all happy with it.
I notice there's no question,
so probably you are.
But the cognitive,
they said to me,
Sir, would you like to take a cognitive test?
I said, did Biden take one?
No.
Did anybody take one?
No, not too many people took them.
I said, what about Obama?
Did he take one?
No, he didn't take one either.
I said, let me be the only one to take one.
But I've actually taken them
three times already.
I like taking them
because they're sort of...
They're not too tough for me to take.
But we had a great physical exam,
so I know you're going to ask that.
And the doctors
who are total professionals,
Walter Reed Medical Center,
they're great, great people.
And I visited a soldier
that was badly wounded.
Incredible soldier.
Lost his leg.
And we spent a lot of time with him.
I mean, great with his mother.
And it was really a very great thing.
They do a phenomenal job.
I just want to say, Walter Reed,
I was there for, what, five, six hours.
You were there with me.
But I took a full physical
and he came out perfecto.
So that's good.
I mean, she got me for a little longer.
Would the U.S. be willing to pay
for those facilities to be opened
if new ones were going to be built?
I'd do something.
We'd help them out, yeah.
We'd help them out.
They're great facilities.
Very strong facilities.
And they don't play games.
I'd like to go a step further.
I mean, I say, I said it to Pam.
I don't know what the laws are.
We always have to obey the laws.
But we also have homegrown criminals
that push people into subways
that hit elderly ladies
on the back of the head
with a baseball bat
when they're not looking
that are absolute monsters.
I'd like to include them
in the group of people
to get them out of the country.
But you'll have to be looking
at the laws on that, Steve.
OK?
Mr. President,
do you think more presidents
should follow suit like you guys
as far as taking a hard stand
on crime here in the United States?
Oh, I do.
I think everybody has to.
The president said it better than anybody.
He said, you know, you have liberty
and you have to have liberty.
But to have liberty,
you're going to...
not everybody is going to be good.
And, you know, some are bad
because they're sick.
They're mentally deranged.
They're bad.
Then you have to take them...
If you're going to have a country,
you're going to have to take those people out.
And we've been doing that.
But this was like an unforced error,
they would call it,
where we had people
that may hate our country
or maybe they're just stupid people.
I think they're probably
stupid people more so.
They...
A lot of people said
they did it for the vote.
But I did better with Hispanic people
than they did
because they always used Hispanic.
I did better.
You people love me.
I saw my poll numbers in your country
up through the roof, right?
91%.
No, no, they...
Some people think they do it for the vote.
But they don't have to do it for the vote.
They cheat, you know.
They're professional cheaters.
That's about the only thing they do well.
So we just have had a great relationship
and it's become bigger
because of a strange thing
that happened.
You know, I came back.
We had no war in Ukraine.
We had no war with...
We had no October 7th
Middle East problem.
We had nothing.
We had...
We had no inflation.
We didn't have the Afghanistan
most embarrassing moment
in the history of our country,
the Afghanistan.
Not withdrawing
because I would have been out...
You know, I was...
I had it all set to bring people out
with dignity and pride.
That was the worst,
most embarrassing moment
in the history of our country,
Afghanistan.
We didn't have any of that.
You wouldn't have had the war
with Russia and Ukraine.
You wouldn't have had
the Middle East problem
because Iran was broke.
They had no money
because we had secondary sanctions on
and lots of other sanctions.
And now every single thing
got a problem with Iran,
but I'll solve that problem.
That's almost an easy one.
We got to solve a war
that should have never started,
Ukraine and Russia,
and we'll get that solved.
And we have to solve problems
and we already solved
inflation here.
If you look at the numbers,
the numbers are incredible,
actually.
The stock market's up
and we're not letting other countries
take advantage of this country
like they have for the last 40 years.
So thank you very much.
Do you have a question?
Please.
Mr. President, thank you so much.
You scored another major
investment win this morning
in NVIDIA.
Pledged to build its AI supercomputer
the first time ever
right here in the United States.
Thank you.
That's a question I like.
That's true.
What is your reaction
to this announcement, sir,
and how has it positively
benefited Americans
across the entire country?
Well, it's one of the
biggest announcements
you'll ever hear
because NVIDIA,
as you know, controls that
almost the entire sector,
which is one of the most
important sectors in the world,
between chips and semiconductors
and everything else.
And they're the biggest.
And the other biggest
we already have coming in
and spending $300 billion,
as you know.
They announced two weeks ago.
But NVIDIA is so highly respected.
And this was an announcement
that a lot of people...
I knew it was going to happen,
but not to the extent
that it happened.
It's big.
And the reason they did it
is because of the election
on November 5th
and because of a thing called tariffs.
As I say,
the most beautiful word
in the dictionary.
After love, God, relationship.
The press actually hit me.
I said tariff
is the most beautiful word
in the dictionary.
What about family, love, God?
I got hit even on that.
Do you understand?
I said, okay.
So now I say it's my fifth
most favorite word
because they get you on anything.
But no, that NVIDIA...
It's one of the great companies
of the world.
Modern, super modern companies.
Controls segments that nobody,
you know, sort of controls
the world in a sense.
And they are coming in here
in the biggest way
with hundreds of billions of dollars.
Not like millions of dollars.
Hundreds of billions of dollars.
And I'm honored by it.
And I want to thank Jensen
and all of the people
that we deal with.
They're great people.
They're brilliant people.
And without tariffs,
they wouldn't be doing it.
Thank you very much.
Are you considering
additional sanctions against Russia
after their latest attack?
And do you have an update
on the rate
and when you might announce
semiconductor attacks?
Well, I already have sanctions on Russia.
I put them there.
If you remember, Nord Stream 2,
that's the big pipeline
that goes through Europe.
I stopped it.
That's Russia's pipeline,
the largest pipeline
I think in the world.
It goes to Germany.
And I stopped it.
And when Biden came in,
he approved it.
And then they say,
oh, I'm friendly with Russia.
No, no.
Putin said, you know,
if you're my friend,
I'd hate to see you
win you, my enemy.
I stopped the biggest...
the biggest economic job
they ever had.
I stopped it cold, right?
It was dead.
You know that, right?
And Biden came in
and he immediately approved it.
What was that all about?
And it's a pipeline
that takes care of a lot of the needs.
Now, you know, it's...
It was a very controversial thing.
But I stopped it
and Biden approved it.
Questions?
No, not you.
Not you.
The President of the United States
is going to make a
presidential tariff
and potentially pharmaceuticals.
Semi-conductor tariffs
and potentially pharmaceuticals.
Pharmaceuticals, we're going to do.
We have...
We don't make our own drugs,
our own pharmaceuticals.
We don't make our own drugs anymore.
The drug companies are in Ireland
and they're in lots of other places, China.
And all I have to do is impose a tariff.
The more, the faster they move in.
The higher the tariff,
it's inversely proportional.
The higher the tariff,
the faster they come.
And, yeah, we're going to be doing that.
That's going to be like we have on cars.
We have, as you know, a 25% tariff on cars.
We have a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum.
And that's what that category fits right now.
Do you have a percentage in mind
and a timeline?
I have a timeline, yeah.
Not too distant future.
We're doing it because
we want to make our own drugs.
We're doing it because
we want to make our own steel and aluminum,
lumber, other things.
And they're all coming in.
We have record numbers,
$7 trillion.
Since I announced,
like, a month and a half ago,
since I came, basically,
since I came in,
we have over $7 trillion
being invested in the country.
We didn't have $1 trillion.
We didn't have a half a trillion dollars
for some of these guys.
They didn't know what the hell they were doing.
So we have the largest investment
that we've ever heard of.
And we're only 2 months in.
And that'll continue at levels
that you've never seen before.
It's going to happen.
And even the stock market's up today.
We also had, you know,
a lot of people didn't say it the way it was.
We had the largest gain
in the stock market in history
on every single category last week.
That was a nice game
because we were getting a little hit
because people didn't understand
the power of our economic...
our country economically
if you use it right.
Do you have something to say on that,J.D.?
Yes, sir.
I mean, look, for 40 years,
we have lost manufacturing capacity.
Workers have seen their wages stagnate.
And some of the most critical things
that we need from the pharmaceuticals,
the drugs that we give to our children,
the antibiotics that we give to our kids,
to the weapons that we actually need
to fight a war,
if, God forbid, we had to fight a war,
we don't make enough of that stuff.
And so President Trump ran explicitly
on changing that.
Yes, as the President mentioned,
it caused a little bit of disruption
in the market,
but I actually think over the long term,
workers are going to benefit,
stocks are going to go up,
American businesses are going to benefit
as we reinvest
and reindustrialize our country.
And the autoworkers and the teamsters
and all of the unions,
you know, not traditionally Republican,
but I'm winning those unions
by, what, 40, 50 points on the Democrats.
They're losing everything.
They're losing everything
because they just have policies
that are not believable.
They have, they fight for policies
that are 5% popular
and nobody knows who the 5% are.
I mean, nobody can find the 5%.
But if you go back to Ohio,
and by the way,
we have the great championship team
from Ohio coming in today, right?
Very big day.
And that's going to be a little bit later.
But, and that'll be,
if you want to stick around,
I'll introduce you to some of them.
You'll see some very large people, right?
You'll see some people that
even you have not seen before.
These are big, these are 6'7",
380 pounds with no fat.
Okay, that's pretty good.
But the team, the national championship team
is being honored today at the White House.
So that'll be exciting.
If you're around,
want to stay around,
I'll have you up there.
You can tell them all about your prison,
how you have to behave.
Okay.
Who else?
You said yesterday
that you're making a decision on Iran very quickly.
What do you mean by that?
Is that a decision to strike Iran?
They solved their problem very quickly.
Iran wants to deal with us,
but they don't know how.
They really don't know how.
We had a meeting with them on Saturday.
We have another meeting scheduled next Saturday.
I said, that's a long time.
You know, that's a long time.
So I think they might be tapping us along.
But Iran has to get rid of the concept
of a nuclear weapon.
They cannot have a nuclear weapon.
He can't have a nuclear weapon.
Nobody can have it.
We can't have anybody having nuclear weapons,
you know?
We can't have nuclear weapons.
And I think they're tapping us along
because we're so used to dealing
with stupid people in this country.
And I had Iran perfect.
You had no attacks
you would have never had October 7th in Israel.
The attack by Hamas because Iran was broke.
It was stone cold broke when I was president.
And I don't want to do it.
I want them to be a rich, great nation.
The only thing is, one thing, simple.
It's really simple.
They can't have a nuclear weapon.
And they got to go fast
because they're fairly close to having one.
And they're not going to have one.
And if we have to do something very harsh,
we'll do it.
And I'm not doing it for us.
I'm doing it for the world.
And these are radicalized people.
And they cannot have a nuclear weapon.
Does that include a potential strike
on Iranian nuclear facilities?
Of course it does.
And just a follow-up question on a clarification.
You mentioned that you're open to deporting
individuals that aren't foreign aliens
but are criminals to El Salvador.
Does that include potentially U.S. citizens
fully naturalized Americans?
If they're criminals
and if they hit people with baseball bats
over their head that happen to be 90 years old
and if they rape 87-year-old women
in Coney Island, Brooklyn.
Yeah, yeah, that includes them.
Why do you think there's a special category of person?
They're as bad as anybody that comes in.
We have bad ones too.
And I'm all for it.
Because we can do things with the President
for less money and have great security.
And we have a huge prison population.
We have a huge number of prisons.
And then we have the private prisons.
And some are operated well, I guess.
And some aren't.
But he does a great job with that.
We have others that we're negotiating with too.
But no, if it's a homegrown criminal,
I have no problem.
Now, we're studying the laws right now.
Pam is studying.
If we can do that, that's good.
And I'm talking about violent people.
I'm talking about really bad people.
Really bad people.
Every bit as bad as the ones coming in.
And I made the statement when I heard about this
a long time ago now, four years ago.
When I heard that this guy was having open borders,
I said every single criminal from all over the world
is going to be dumped into our country.
And that's what happened.
Jails.
The jails of the Congo were emptied out.
The jails of Venezuela were emptied out.
And you know what happened?
Their crime went way down.
But now Venezuela has other problems.
You know what the problem is?
They have no money.
Because I shut off their oil
and we put secondary tariffs
because they're not doing what's right over there.
They know what to do.
We spoke to them.
I spoke to them.
They know what to do.
But they have no money.
Venezuela has no money.
But Iran had no money.
And Iran behaved so beautifully.
And then Biden took all those secondary tariffs
and tariffs on.
I told China you can't buy oil.
If you buy oil from Iran, China.
I told it to President Xi
that we no longer want you to do business
with the United States of America.
And those ships disappeared from that harbor
so quickly.
China.
Get along great with China.
Are the talks with Iran productive?
Do you want to continue that?
The talks with Iran.
Do you believe those are productive?
Do you want to continue that?
I think Iran could be a great country.
As long as it doesn't have nuclear weapons.
If they have nuclear weapons,
they'll never get a chance to be a great country.
They will never get a chance.
It won't even come to us.
Sir, on tariffs.
Yeah.
Yesterday you mentioned short-lived product exemptions.
Which specific products are you considering
and how long is short-lived?
Least months?
I'm looking at something
to help some of the car companies
where they're switching to parts
that were made in Canada, Mexico
and other places.
And they need a little bit of time
because they're going to make them here.
But they need a little bit of time.
So I'm talking about things like that.
What about any Apple products,
other cell phones?
Look, I'm a very flexible person.
I don't change my mind,
but I'm flexible.
And you have to be.
You just can't have a wall
and you'll only go.
No, sometimes you have to go around it,
under it or above it.
There'll be maybe things coming up.
I speak to Tim Cook.
I helped Tim Cook recently
and that whole business.
I'm not...
I don't want to hurt anybody.
But the end result is
we're going to get to the position
of greatness for our country.
We're the greatest economic power
in the world if we're smart.
If we're not smart,
we're going to hurt our country very badly.
We lost with China over the Biden years
trillions of dollars on trade.
Trillions of dollars.
And he let them fleece us
and we can't do that anymore.
And you know what?
I don't blame China at all.
I don't blame President Xi.
I like him.
He likes me.
I mean, you know,
I think, who knows?
Who the hell cares?
Do you have any updates on...
But you know what?
What?
Do you have any updates on talks with China?
No, let me just tell you this.
I don't blame China.
I don't blame Vietnam.
I don't...
I see their meeting today.
Isn't that wonderful?
That's a lovely meeting.
The meeting like trying to figure out
how do we screw the United States of America?
Don't forget the European Union was formed
to do just that.
The European Union was formed
to hurt the United States on trade.
And they get us on NATO
because they don't pay their bills.
But now since I got involved,
they have been paying their bills.
I took in 600...
over $600 billion for NATO.
Nobody took in anything.
I mean, we were...
They were all delinquent.
Most of the...
They had eight nations out of 28
paid their bills.
The rest of them were way delinquent.
And I said,
if you don't pay your bills,
we're not going to protect you anymore.
And the money poured in over 600...
The Secretary General last week
made that statement.
He said,
I've never seen anything like it.
We couldn't get anybody to pay
because the United States
was footing the bill for NATO.
Well, we got hurt there
and we got hurt on trade.
Likewise, European Union.
And they've got to come to the table.
And they're trying to.
They're trying to.
But the European Union
is taking terrible advantage.
They don't take our food products.
They don't take our cars.
We take...
We have millions of their cars.
BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz,
many others.
They come in by the millions.
They don't take...
There are no Chevrolets in Munich.
I can tell you that.
I said to Angela Merkel
when she was there,
as she was letting millions of people
infiltrate Germany,
which was not so good
from, we would call them,
illegal immigrants.
But she made them legal.
But I said to her,
and I get along with her very well.
I said, how many Chevrolets
do we have in Munich or Frankfurt?
Why? None, Donald.
None.
I said, you're right.
And yet we take in
millions and millions of cars.
Now, those days are over.
OK.
Thank you very much, everybody.
Thank you, guys.
Mr. President, do you have any comment
on the FTC's case
against META and North Zuckerberg?
Thank you, press.
Thank you, Naive.
Thank you.
Thank you, press.
Let's go.
Thank you.
Let's go.
Thank you, press.
Keep coming.
Keep going.
Thank you.
Thanks, guys.
