BIG: Trump Admits on Camera That Iran War ‘LARGELY’ Played Role in Republicans’ Midterm Setback

I think it's largely true because it drove the gasoline up a little bit short term. And probably that's probably it's true. But at the same time, if I had it to do again, I'd have to do it again. Because long term, it's the only answer. You can't let Iran have a nuclear weapon. Do you feel like it was worth it? I do. Well, you have no choice. I mean, I thought the oil would go up a lot more and I did it on that basis. You have no choice. You have to do it. You can't let Iran have a nuclear weapon or everything that you see here. Someday might not exist. And maybe this, but this building might be the only one that does so. Yeah, I think that look, I mean, I'll get along probably with the Democrats unless they want to be destructive. But if the power of the veto, so we don't like what they're doing, what they'll they've already called and they want to talk about things. And that's fine. But yeah, people, the Iran thing we had to do and we continue to do it. We have tremendous oil flowing out of the hormones right now. At the beginning, there was none. And probably that's the primary reason. The price, not the war, the price. The Press Sir, you know that the ballot will close down the campaign? The President No, look, I mean, if I were on the ballot, we would have won. You saw the people that were packed, thousands and thousands of people at every rally. And if I was on the ballot, we would have won. But they just — you couldn't transfer that love. There was such love at those rallies, it was incredible. We weren't able to transfer the love to candidates. Did any of your aides try to talk about it, or was it just very bad, that speech? Which one are we talking about? One of the reflections on it. I heard it was a very good speech, got great reviews. That was only a speech on the reflections, but that had nothing to do with anything else. That was a speech very much like this is today. This incredible place that we're building at the White House, it's going to be here for many, many years and serving our country. Well, that was only a sort of a ribbon cutting because the reflecting pool hasn't worked since 1922. Let's see. Over 100 years, it's never worked. It's always leaked and was Always a mess, and we fixed it, we made it great. That was not a speech. I was just talking about the reflecting pool and then a couple of other comments. I mean, our speeches were really the speeches made at the 30 rallies, and those speeches were, that was tremendous love. It was pretty amazing. Thank you very much. I can't tell you that. They may tell you, but I can't tell you. No, no, no. Thank you, sir. Not even a little bit. I think it would destroy the Democrat Party if they did that. It was impeachment for no reason. What? For having a successful country. Our country is more successful now than at any time in its history. Watch the beam go up. Thank you. No. Watch the speaker. Thank you. How are you guys? Chandeliers. Thank Okay. Okay. You sure? All right. You good to go? You good to go? you. Thank you. Now envision chandeliers all over, you see. Envision marble floor. Oh, it's gonna be good. This will be the most beautiful building. Pretty, isn't it? Yeah. I mean, July. Right, right, right. It's gonna be great. Middle to end of next year, depending on services. Watch your step. Okay. You know you. It's not steel that's used on a roof to hold back rain. It's to hold helicopters. Did you guys see the helipad from Uptown? How beautiful it is? It's incredible. It's incredible. This is going to be more incredible. I felt the pressure being. This was a non-press event. I said, this is the greatest, right? Can you see the helipad come over there? Yes. A pole? Yes. Thank you. Thank you. Piece of art. They're very talented people that do this. Very talented. Thank you. They put all this steel up in three weeks, can you believe? The whole thing was done in two and a half weeks. Pretty amazing, huh? How are you? Good job. And that'll fit perfectly. Within a hundredth of an inch, can you believe it? Seriously? Yeah. They rarely have to do any chopping. Watch. Pretty amazing, huh? The entire building, every single hole was perfect, which is rare, but we are great people. The Federal Reserve, at the office. What a shame. So you know, those guys are standing under. Yes, you can do it. Personally, I'd pass on that. Because if one bolt, if one bolt fell down, that's it, you're history. It's really amazing. I love it. Would you like to move over there? Then, right under that, look what's right under there. We'll send Margo, let's send Margo home. No, if anything fell off there, but they do it. Except the Secret Service guy's not very well protected. I don't think he has any idea what's going on. See where that fits? It's like a glove. See the sprug that they put right through it? See that? It fits perfectly. You know, they bolted in and that's the end of that. Pretty good, right? Yep. That's pretty good. Go ahead, did you have any other questions? Did you know the Vice President was going to post that message talking so much about the results of the war and how it impacted it? Well, I knew the war was going to impact it, but whether it impacted it or not, Iran can't have a nuclear weapon. No, but the Vice President wrote a very late post about how the war impacted the U.S. Well, it did. Thank you. I knew he was, I know how he feels about it. I think it was, I think it was fine. I thought it was good. We knew that. I know that. I knew that when I went in and we stopped them from having a nuclear weapon and they will never have a nuclear weapon. Have you spoken to Vice President Dan? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if he's going to be here. I speak to him about a lot of things. But... I mean, we'll see what happens. Everybody, you don't know who's talking about running. You can have people running. You can have a lot of people, maybe a lot of people running. Maybe nobody's going to run. Maybe he won't run. I don't know who's going to run. But I can tell you that as far as that war is concerned, I would have done nothing different. We've totally broken their military. Their Navy's gone. Their Air Force is gone. Their anti-aircraft is gone. That's a dangerous job. I don't know how they do it.
