And maybe we're close. We're getting words that things are going okay in Russia. And it doesn't mean anything until we hear what the final outcome is. But they have very serious discussions going on right now with President Putin and others. And hopefully they all want to end this nightmare. It's a nightmare. It's a horrible thing. When you look, I get pictures every week. They give me the pictures of the battlefield, which I almost don't want to see. It's so horrible to see young people laying arms.

and legs. Storming Trump Tower is crazy. It is. It's a most terrible thing that you'll ever see. And it's got to stop. These are young people with mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers and friends. And never would have happened if I was president, right? So we hopefully are going to be in a good position sometime today to have a good idea. We'll have, we know where we are with Ukraine and we are getting good signals outside of Russia as to where we are with Russia and hopefully they'll do the right thing and really humanity. We're talking about humanity.

We're not talking about the money, but then you add the money to it and you know hundreds of billions of dollars is being spent and really wasted so unnecessarily. It should have never happened. So it's an honor to have you here. They picked a great gentleman. I'll tell you that was, I was so happy to hear Chris. You had somebody, Stoltenberg was really good

and you have somebody that's going to do an incredible job. I was so much in favor of you. You have no idea. They had another person that I did not like. I was not happy. I think I kept him from, you know what I'm talking about. I said, this is the right man to do it. And he really did.

He was a great prime minister of the Netherlands. He did a great job. And that's what he's doing right now. So thank you, everybody, for being you. And it's a very great honor to have you. And we even have some of our great energy people here today. Right? We have the governor, and we have Chris.

you know, Chris. He's supposed to be the most talented man in the world of energy, according to the governor. So I don't know if he's right. We have general, you've been fantastic. Thank you very much. And we have all a lot of good people that won't be so much involved with this, but they wanted to see what was happening. It's become a little bit of a show. Did he? And I think, I feel like almost everybody fucked up COVID. So with that, if anybody would have a question? Oh, here we go. Steve Whitcomb, you spoke about it.

What sort of agreement do you hope he comes away from there? Well, we'd like to see a ceasefire from Russia. And we have not been working in the dark. We've been discussing with Ukraine land and pieces of land that would be kept and lost and all of the other elements of a final agreement. Yeah. There's a power plant involved, you know, a very big power plant involved. Who's going to get the power plant and who's going to get this and that?

And so, you know, it's not an easy process. But phase one is the ceasefire. A lot of the individual subjects have been discussed, though. You know, we've been discussing concepts of land because you don't want to waste time with a ceasefire if it's not going to mean anything. So we're saying, look, this is what you can get. This is what you can't get.

They discussed NATO and being in NATO, and everybody knows what the answer to that is. They've known that answer for 40 years, in all fairness. Oh. So a lot of the details of a final agreement have actually been discussed. Okay. Now we're going to see whether or not Russia is there. If there not, it'll be a very disappointing moment for the world.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He is open to a ceasefire, but he does still have some concerns. He suggested that you two should speak directly. Do you have plans to speak to him soon? Well, I'm going to do it.

He can do it. Say that today. It was a very promising statement because other people are saying different things and you don't know if they have anything to really, if they have any meaning or, I don't know. I think some of them making shit up. I don't think they have anything to do with it. No, he put out a very promising statement, but it wasn't complete. And yeah, I'd love to meet with them or talk to him. But we have to get it over fast. You know, every day people are being killed. It's not like, as we sit here, two people will be killed. Think of it. Two people are going to be killed during this

little period of time. Thousands of people a week are dying. So, We really don't have very much time. We have to make this fast. It shouldn't be very complicated. Thank you, Mr. President. A representative of Canada, the finance minister, are in town, and will meet members of your administration during the day. Any chances that you will ban on the tariffs on aluminum and the ones that are planned for April 2nd?

No. You are not going to change your mind. We've been ripped off for years, and we're not going to be ripped off anymore. No, I'm not going to bend at all. Aluminum or steel or cars. So he's going to, yeah, okay. We've been ripped off as a country for many, many years. We've been subjected to costs that we shouldn't be subjected to.

I'm not surprised, but still. In the case of Canada, we're spending $200 billion a year to subsidize Canada. I love Canada. I love the people of Canada. I have many friends in Canada. The great one, Wayne Gretzky, the great. How good is Wayne Gretzky? He's the great one.

We have, I know many people from Canada that are good friends of mine, but, you know, the United States can't subsidize a country for $200 billion a year. Nothing like them, yeah. We don't need their cars. We don't need their energy. We don't need their lumber. We don't need anything that they get. We do it because we want to be helpful. But it comes a point when you just can't do that.

You have to run your own country. and to be honest with you Canada only works as a state it doesn't we don't need anything they have I guess that's true it would be one of the great states yeah anyway this would be the most incredible I mean shit guys if you look at a map they drew an artificial line right through it between Canada and the US there it is dude yeah for sure somebody did it a long time ago many many decades ago and uh makes no sense it's so perfect as a great and cherished state. Keeping O Canada, the national anthem.

I love it. I think it's great. Keep it. But it'll be for the state, one of our greatest states. Maybe our greatest state. But why should we subsidize another country for $200 billion? Of course, it's $200 billion a year. And again, we don't need their lumber.

We don't need their energy. We have more than they do. We don't need their cars. I'd much rather make the cars here. Bro, it's... And there's not a thing that we need. That's the best state. Not only is it going to be a state.

It's going to be the best state. But they need us. All right. And we have to do this. That's great. We have to do this, yes. How about that? You have made it very clear that NATO needs to step up.

Mm-hmm. Although great progress has been making the first mandate. How do you envision this new transatlantic? You're talking about NATO stepping up? Well, NATO is stepping up for this man. This man is a... Man that only knows how to step up. Wow.

What a nice guy. We had the same goal in mind. We want the war ended. And he's doing his job. He only knows how to do a good job. That's one thing. That's why he fought for a job. That's impressive.

Because they had some other candidates that I'll tell you, would not have done a very good job. He's saying they're retarded. We're getting you a clip. We're going to get him a clip of that little last statement. The rest of the statements, he doesn't care. So how does this new transatlantic cooperation, how do we envision it? Well, we have, that's one thing.

I mean, you know, we're on the other side of the ocean. Yeah. And they're right there. There's a lot of water. We're in for $350 billion because of Biden, and they're in for $100 billion. So it's a big difference. And it's unfair. And I said, you have to equalize.

They should equalize. They should have been. It should have never happened. where Biden just gave this money away. Now, you know, we have an agreement with Ukraine on the could you replace Trump with a soundboard? That'll get us something back. I feel like you could. Our money back. We're not doing it. Yes. Yeah. Oh my God.

I'm doing it really to save lives, but at the same time, uh, we were treated very unfairly as we always are by every country. And we're in for very substantially more than the Eurozone. European nations are in for and that shouldn't be, you know, they're much more affected by it than we are. I was going to show you guys. We do have a notion in between. But I don't know. I think good things are going to happen. All right. I'm not going to do that again. I'm going to happen. I do say we were talking before and Mark was very nice. He said if you wouldn't get involved, there would be none. There's an ants on my desk. This thing would have gone on for a long. There were ants on my desk.

Yeah, we broke a deadlock. We did break a deadlock. I hope. I hope it's meaningful. Yes, did you have a little bit? Yes, and thank you, Mr. President. Amanda Head with Just the News. On the Southern border, you've got DHS and ICE who are reporting that there was a little bit of fudging of numbers during the Biden administration of both the catch and the release side with respect to reporting for fish, right? I love that question. Who are you with? Just the news.

Very nice. Just the news. Do you know how many of those are criminal illegal aliens and Biden's out of office, Alejandro Mayer? No, Biden fudge the numbers. The numbers were totally fake. Biden is lying about everything. Yep, I knew it. I knew they were fake.

Everybody knew they were fake, but now it came out. Naturally. That administration was a horror show for this country. Exactly. Can you hold anyone accountable? Well, I don't know. They gave phony numbers. Yeah, true.

Holding people accountable is what matters. But I'm not sure about that. It's F? It's for EU. It's because of the tariffs. You guys are tariffed on the stream. We're after many, many bad people that were letting it. 10% of it's F now. Christy Noem and my friend,

Holman. How good is Tom Homan doing, right? And they're after them. I mean, you see they're taking them out in record numbers. Gang members, gang leaders, drug dealers. This is a problem. The Netherlands does not have. The Netherlands never had this problem.

If you'd like to take it through. I could deliver some people. I could deliver some nice people to the Netherlands. Wait, we're gonna send all the drug dealers over there? Okay. What he did to this country, letting 21 people flow through an open border. Never thought of that. Were hard criminals from prisons and jails, from mental institutions, and I always say insane asylums. My drug dealer was shot last week.

That sucks. And they're here from, not South America, from all over the world, from South America, but from all over the world. Change your number before the police find. number before the police find his phone. It's so sad. You'd say, why would anybody do this? Why? Can't go ahead? And one more.

There's some new internal Democrat polling that doesn't look great to Democrats, but it also has 54% unfavorability for Republicans in swing states and battlegrounds for the midterms. Do you consider those voters capturable for Republicans? Yeah, well, we did, you know, I won every swing state, as you know, by a lot.

And I won the popular vote by a lot. And we won the counties. If you look at the counties and district plan, We had 2,725, and they had 501. So true. That's a real. That's why the map is all red.

Wow. So we had a great thing. Yeah, I think winning from the Democrats, I saw it. If you look the other night, I made a speech, and I introduced two young ladies who were killed, two killed, viciously violently killed, young, unbelievable, both outstanding people. They were killed by illegal aliens. and the Democrats wouldn't get up and applaud. The mothers were, I mean, inconsolable. They were crying and everybody was crying.

Well, yeah, I would assume that. You should make a soundboard. I should do a soundboard for this? They didn't clap. They didn't stand. They didn't do anything. Yeah? We had a young man with...

That wasn't what she asked about? His dream is to be with a police department someday, and he was introduced. They didn't even clap. I mean, they were disgusting, frankly. They were disgusting. There's something wrong. with them. They're deranged. They're deranged like Jack Smith. They're deranged people. And I never saw

anything like it. I'm standing up and I introduced the mother and the parents of these two young girls. I'm not, I'm not disagreeing a whole lot there. Killed. Let's be honest. And the Democrats electives. It's so sad. And I saw it this morning with, One of them is pretty well known. One is arguing fighting like crazy over men being able to play in women's sports. I said, I thought that was tried. I thought that was about a 95%. I think it's a 95% issue.

I wish it was. In a way, I want them to keep doing it because I don't think they can win a race. It's only 80. Republicans. I said, don't bring that subject up because there's no election right now. But about a week before the election, bring it up because you can't lose. And everything's transgender, this, transgender, that. You know, it's, they have everybody's transgender now.

One thing, they stick together, you know, I wish, and the Republicans stick together. Even the mice are transgender. We have grand standards, you know, you always have grandstanders in life. But the Democrats, they don't seem, they have grand standards, but when it comes to a vote, they do stick together, right? It seems like they'll stick together on the shutdown. Will that hurt Democrats going into midterms? Well, if they do a shutdown, and ultimately that might lead to very, very, very, high taxes because we're talking about a shutdown. We're talking about getting to work immediately

on the greatest tax bill ever passed. That was the one we did. It was a renewal and it's in addition to it. And we're going to cut people's taxes. And if the, that would be nice. The Democrats are stopping all of these good things that we're providing. We're providing the greatest package of benefits that this country's ever provided. The biggest part of that's going to be tax cuts for the middle class and for businesses, small businesses, employers, people that hire people and jobs. And if it's shut down, it's only going to be, if there's a shutdown, it's only because of the Democrats. No, they got passed out.

They passed it away a lot from our country. They passed it out like yesterday. Mr. President, on tariffs, you make clear you're not backing down from this. But many American small business owners say they are concerned that these tariffs are going to them. What's your message to them? They're going to be so much richer than they are. right now and we have many yesterday general motors was in they want to invest 60 billion dollars

the people from facebook were in yesterday they're going to invest 60 billion by the end of the year other people are talking about numbers apple as you know a few days ago announced 500 billion investment they're going to build their plans in the united states you had all these numbers up that's a lot of fucking money almost all of their plans are in china now they're building in the United States. Nobody, I was, look, the reason is two things. Number one, the election, November 5th, and the other thing is tariffs. I think probably in that order. But Tim Cook came in and he announced a 500. Who's that? Think of it. 500 billion, not million. 500 million is a lot when you think about it, right? I would have been happy with 500 million, but it's 500 billion dollar

investment by Apple. Yes, sir. It's a lot of money. And that's because of the election result. because of the tariffs and the tax incentives to, you know, tariffs and tax incentives. And I've never seen anything like it. We have plans going up now in Indiana. We have plans going up in Michigan. A lot of plants going to be planned from. It's a lot of plans. Because Michigan got so badly beaten by, you know, what happened with Europe.

You know, if you look at Europe, take a look at the EU. Yep. We're not allowed to sell cars there. It's prohibitive because of their policies. And also, their minds. non-monetary tariffs. They put obstacles in your way that you can do nothing about. But if you take a look at what happens,

so we sell no cars to Europe, I mean virtually, no cars, and they sell millions of cars to us. They don't take our agriculture, we take their agriculture. It's like a one-way street with them. The European Union is very, very nasty. They sue our companies. Apple was forced to pay $16 billion, or the case that, like, very much like my cases that I want.

They shouldn't have been even cases. They're fake, yeah. But we felt they had no case, and they ended up having an extremely favorable judge and decision. But they're suing Google, they're suing Facebook. They're suing all of these companies. And they're taking billions of dollars out of American companies, many more than the ones I just mentioned. I think these companies eat more oversight and regulation. I don't know what they're using it for, but they treat us very badly.

China obviously treats us very badly. almost everybody does. And I blame past presidents, to be honest. Which one? Because when I was president, we received so far about $700 billion from China over the years on the tariffs that I put in. No other president got 10 cents from China. I was curious, right?

Who could have been? And that was only beginning, except for COVID. I would have been able to finish the process. But we had to fight the COVID thing, and we did really well with it. But we had a fight. And then we had actually, as you remember, Mark, We actually handed over the stock market. It was higher than just previous to COVID coming in,

which was sort of a miracle, frankly. We did a good job. But the tariffs are very important. And I think the psychology, there's great spirit. When Mark came in, he said, congratulations. There's a whole new spirit. There's a whole new light over this country and really over the world. That's good.

A whole group of people, really, because I talk about this whole group. What was the question? It was why is Biden? And stupid and why are you better than Biden? But I've never seen investment like this. Trillions of dollars is being invested in the United States. Yeah, that would have never. Our country could have failed.

Another four years of this. What happened in the last four years? Our country would have been a crime-ridden mess. And I don't know if you noticed a little thing they call it, but it's not a little thing if you don't have, if you like eggs and you don't have a lot of money. Uh-oh. Eggs have gone down 25% in the last couple of weeks. we inherited that problem

eggs groceries have gone down a little bit that's new chickens do you want to speak to that for a second respond a bunch of chickens just say a couple of words you and Chris about energy what's that tons of bonus chickens I think that Chris and I

just came from Sarah Week which is the largest conference in the world so global leaders people from the EU officials from all the energy producing countries all there and all the global nationals, all the U.S., the spirit of that group is through the roof because now they realize that in the United States, that President Trump's policies are pro-developing more energy, as opposed

to we're trying to shut down energy, and that pro-growth, pro-business, pro-energy approach is giving people the optimism, so then the markets are reacting to that, and energy prices on the future market are going to go down because people know we're not going to be killing off the energy we need for prosperity in all of our countries, but also for peace. Because people have used energy to fuel these wars that President Trump is working so hard to end. And we know that energy, high energy prices, we're driving the inflation that he talked about. So it accomplishes two goals for us, which is prosperity for the world, peace for the world, when we have smart energy policies. And President Trump has brought common sense back to how we think about energy.

And it's brought down now $65 a barrel I saw this morning. That's $1.5.00. That's phenomenal news. And that's going to bring, that's what brought it up. The energy went, they took our beautiful energy policies and they just messed them up. And then they went immediately back to them because, but by that time they lost it. They lost that Bronco, as the expression goes. Chris, do you have something to say? Uh-oh. I think Doug said it well, but you just can't overstate how important the return of common sense, the return of knowledge about energy and pro-American consumers, pro-investment in our country. I think globally, that was welcomed means capital flows it means more sobriety and lower energy prices more economic

opportunity for americans so yeah it was it elated atmosphere at a global energy conference well we're working on one project it should be very easy uh it's a pipeline going through a small section of new york new york's held it up for years actually for years they wanted to do it for years and years and uh it will reduce the the most expensive energy almost in the world is in New England because they have no way of getting it there because it's been held up by New York. And the whole of New England and Connecticut and New York energy for the illegal migrants. This one pipeline will say per family, $2,500 just on heating and another $2,500 on everything else. So the energy by just a simple pipeline going through an area that wants it.

Just how it is. An area that's not a rich area. It's actually a very poor area. We create jobs and everything else. And it's going to be way underground. Nobody's going to see it. Once they fill it up, nobody's going to see it. Nobody's going to know it's there.

And families in New York and Connecticut and New England are going to save $5,000 a family. Think of that. Because right now they have the highest energy prices, maybe in the world. Yeah, I don't know about that. That's a lot. It seems a little bit unrealistic. In fact, the governor is coming in, Governor of New York. Kathy, I'll see about that.

Very nice woman. She's coming in tomorrow morning at 9. clock to meet me on that and other things. Not only that, but other things. So I hope we don't have to use the extraordinary powers of the federal government to get it done. But if we have to, we will. But I don't think we'll have to. I can tell you, Connecticut wants it and all of New England wants it. And who wouldn't want it? And it's also jobs on top of everything else. So that's going to be very excited. So we're meeting with the governor tomorrow morning. What is your vision for the potential?

Well, that's a good question. Of Greenland and getting the potentially. Well, I think it'll happen. And I'm just thinking I didn't give it much thought before, but I'm sitting with a man that could be very instrumental. You know, Mark, we need that for international security, not just security, international. We have a lot of our favorite players cruising around the coast,

and we have to be careful. And we'll be talking to you. It's a very appropriate, really a very appropriate question. Thank you very much. So the Arctic, so what you did, so when it comes to Greenland, yes or not joining the US, I would leave that outside for me this discussion because I don't want to drink. He doesn't want to get involved.

But when it comes to the high north and the Arctic, you are totally white. Very good idea. Chinese and are using these routes. We know that the Russians are arming. We know we have a lack of icebreakers. So the fact that the seven outside Russia, there are seven Arctic countries working together on this under U.S. leadership is very important to make sure that that region, that part of the world stays safe. And we know things are changing there. And we have

to be there. Well, we just had an election there the other day. Do you see a referendum, a plebiscite where the people of Greenland would be in a position inside. Yeah, didn't the right-wing party win in Greenland, like very recently, a couple days ago or something? Yeah, it was a good election for us, as you know. Yeah. It was not a referendum. It wouldn't be called that. It was an individual. election but the person that did the best is a very good person. The party is anti-American? I'm in her Greenland.

We'll be talking about it. Makes sense. It's very important. Mark mentioned the word icebreakers. So we've ordered, we're in the process of ordering 48 icebreakers. And Canada wants to know if they could use them. I said, well, you know, you got to pay for them. Yeah.

We pay for their military. You know, Canada pays very little for their military because they think we're going to protect them. But even with the icebreakers, so we're going to order 48. And Canada wants to be part of the deal. I say, you've got to get your own icebreakers. Damn. And if you're a state, you can be part of the deal.

But if you're a separate country, you're going to get your own icebreakers. Russia, as you know, has about 40. He's really pushing this. And we have one big icebreaker. I thought this was like a joke the first time he said it. But the whole area is becoming very important. Yeah. For a lot of reasons, the routes are going on about this for a bit.

To Asia. kidding, yeah. Russia, and you have ships all over the place, and we have to have protection. So we're going to have to make a deal on that, and Denmark is not able to do that. Denmark's very far away and really has nothing to do. What happens?

A boat landed there 200 years ago or something, and they say they have rights to it. I don't know if that's true. I don't think it is, actually. But we've been dealing with Denmark, we've been dealing with Greenland, and we have to do it. We really need it for national security.

I think that's why NATO might have to get involved in a way, because we really need Greenland for national security. It's very important. You know, we have a couple of bases on Greenland already, and we have quite a few soldiers, and maybe you'll see more and more soldiers go there. I don't know. What do you think about that, Pete?

So don't answer that piece. Don't answer that question. But we have bases, and we have quite a few soldiers on Greenland. Sir, sir, sir, question your commitment to NATO. everything anything change your commitment to NATO will anything change same amount of my god they made a great step by putting mark in charge oh my god it's a great step because he and I have seen eye to eye on everything for a long time we've been doing this a

long time and so that's a great step oh my god NATO strong you have to keep it how does this happen but the biggest thing North American Union is real. I guess so. I think the rest is going to take care of it. I don't even know what to say. This was a fluke. This was something that if we had a competent president, it would not have happened.

The man was grossly incompetent. All you have to do is look and take a look at he signs by Autopan. Yeah. Who is signing all this stuff by Autopan? Oh, that's a good question. Yeah, I heard that. Important documents by AutoPen. Yeah, he's using DocuSign.

He's a major document. You're signing your proud of a president using Docu. He's sponsored by DocuSan. years they say oh look can you imagine everything was signed by oenopin almost everything nobody's ever heard of such a thing so uh should have never happened tomorrow yeah justice department about law and order could you tell us a little bit about that yeah we're gonna be uh with the justice department we have a great justice department pam bondie is so fantastic and todd blanche and amel you got to know him a little bit he was

acting for a little while and uh some other people are incredible in the Justice Department and I consider the FBI to be a part of it in a sense and cash is going to be fantastic and all the people he's Dan Bongino I love that I love that That's the guy he used to stream

I think we have unbelievable people And all I'm going to do is set out My vision it's going to be their vision really But it's it's My ideas and basically We don't want to have crime in the streets We don't want to have People pushed into subways and killed

That's nuts. The person that did the pushing ends up in a 15-year trial and gets off, Scott Free. We want to have justice, and we want to have safety in our cities as well as our communities. We'll be talking about immigration.

We'll be talking about a lot of things. The complete gamut. So I look forward to that will be tomorrow at the Justice Department. Oh, boy. You were a man of peace. You said it several times, and you made it very clear.

A man of. of peace dealing with belligerent people. I'm thinking we saw you handled Zovanski in this area balloon. What is your leverage on Putin? I'm thinking what if he refuses to He's a sanctions, obviously. But I don't want to talk about leverage.

Yeah. Right now we're talking to him and based on the statements he made today. Yeah, he don't want to go and say that. So I don't want to talk about that. Most peaceful president? I guess so. make the deal too and I think once that deal happens you're never going to be in a process we're sending soldiers to Greenland I really believe if we had a if we get a peace treaty a ceasefire

treaty I think that's going to really lead to peace I don't think anyone wants to go back most peaceful this for a long time and it's vicious and violent and I think if if President Putin agrees and does a ceasefire, I think we're going to be in very good shape to get it done. We want to get it over with. That's why it was very important what I

instructed everybody, including Steve, what we're looking for, to discuss concepts of land, concepts of power plants, because it's complicated. You know, you have a whole, you're sort of creating the edge of a country. The sad part

is that country, if they didn't. Trump said he isn't considering pardoning Daring Chauvin. Didn't happen, and it wouldn't have happened. I don't know if they would have to give anything back. I guess Crimea, you know, I said it last time. Crimea was given by Obama. Biden gave the whole thing, and Bush gave him Georgia, and Trump didn't give him anything.

I gave them. You know what I gave them? I gave them javelins, and the javelins were very effective, as you know. I gave them nothing. 2019. And then also, if you take a look, I was the one that stopped the pipeline going into Europe. It was totally stopped.

Nord Stream 2. Nobody ever heard of Nord Stream 2 before I came alone. It was like some Russian pipeline or some shit. I got along with President Putin. I got along with most of them. I get along great with President Xi. I got along great with Kim Jong-un. I got along great with all of them.

And we had no wars. We had no problems. We wiped out ISIS in record time. General Raisin-Kane and he wiped him out and he's going to be our new chief, right? He's going to be the head of Joint Chiefs of...

Is that actually his name or is Trump just saying that? He's going to be great. Pete's going to be fantastic. I have no doubt about it. We have a great team. Really great team. Yeah, please. Yeah, I don't even know. It's his actual... Yeah, I have no idea. It's a nickname. Okay.

They're worried that they could be the next to be attacked by Russia. You've spoken directly with the Russian president. those fears are justified? No, I don't. I think when this gets done, it's done. They're going to all want to go home and rest. I don't see it happening. Nope, I don't see that happening. And we'll make sure it doesn't happen. Not going to happen, but we'll make sure it doesn't happen. Yeah, go ahead, please. Leaders from Russia and Iran are heading to Beijing tomorrow to discuss nuclear programs.

What do you hope to get out of? Uh-oh. Maybe they're going to talk about non-nuclear programs. Maybe they're going to be talking about the de-escalation of nuclear weapons because, you know, I was talking about that with President Putin very strongly. And we could have done something. Had that election not been rigged, we would have had something. I think I would have made a deal with Putin on de-escalation, denuclearization, as they say. We would have de-escalated nuclear weapons because the power of nuclear weapons is so great and so devastating. and right now Russia and us have by far the most, but China will catch us within five years.

China doesn't have, but they're in the process. Why they need that many bombs? If they can already blow up the whole world. Within four or five years, they'll probably have received. Yeah, I feel like at that point, this is a Republican tradition, Ronald Reagan, yeah.

He negotiated with Gorbachev in the 1980s. Right. To sell them. Sell them in North Korea. It's what you have been doing your first term. It is important. It would be a great achievement. if we could bring down the number.

We have so many weapons and the power is so great. And number one, you don't need them to that extent. And then we'd have to get others, because as you know, in a smaller way, Kim Jong-un has a lot of nuclear weapons, by the way, a lot. And others do also. You have India, you have Pakistan, you have others that have them, and we'd get them involved.

But we started off with Russia and us. We were by far, actually by far the most. And we were going to denuclearize. And that was going to happen. And then we were going to China. And I spoke to China. I spoke to President Xi about it. And he really liked the idea.

You know, like not to spend trillions of dollars building weapons and hopefully he's never going to have to use. And because they are very expensive also. So that would have been great. Okay, one or two more. All right. All right. There's a tension, Indie.

Thank you. We're looking at a impetement. pending government shutdown Friday midnight. Oh, geez. They're doing this again? 30 years straight have said if there's a shutdown, bad things happen. Do you anticipate direct negotiations yourself with conference leader of the Democrats, Chuck Schumer? If they need me, I'm there 100%. Right now it's two or three people.

If it shuts down, it's not the Republicans' fault. You know, we passed a bill where we had an incredible Republican vote. We only had one negative vote. Yeah, the government being shut down. I don't think so. There's always a grandstander. It's a term, you know. But it was amazing.

People were amazed that the Republicans were able to vote in unison like that. So, so strongly. If there's a shutdown, even the Democrats admit it'll be their fault. And I'm hearing a lot of Democrats are going to vote for it. And I hope they do. This is an extension, but ultimately we want to vote for one big beautiful bill where we put the taxes in, we put everything in. We could have big tax cuts.

We're going to have tremendous incentives for companies coming into our country and employing lots of people. Big use, yeah, true. I called it in a rare moment. One big, beautiful bill, that's what I like. And it seems to be that's where they're heading. And we'll have to take care of something to do with Los Angeles. a place called Los Angeles almost burned to the ground.

By the way, I broke into Los Angeles. Can you believe it? I had a break in. I invaded Los Angeles, and we opened up the water. And the water is now flowing down. They have so much water. They don't know what to do. They were sending it out to the Pacific.

For environmental reasons. Please bring up the fish. Okay, can you believe it? And in the meantime, they lost 25,000 houses. Come on. Nobody's ever seen anything like it. But we have the water. I'll let me show you a picture.

You've seen the picture. The water is flowing through the half pipes. We have the big half pipes. He banned the fires. They're no longer allowed in that way. They used to have plenty of water. Yeah, they're illegal now. Again, for environmental reasons.

Well, I turned it on for environmental reasons and also fire reasons. And I've been asking them to do that during my first term. I said, do it. I didn't think anything could happen like this, but they didn't have enough water. Now the farmers are going to have water for their land. and the water is in there. But I actually had to break in. We broke in to do it because we had people that were afraid to give water.

They were, in particular, they were trying to protect a certain little fish. And I say, how do you protect the fish if you don't have water? Just like what I said. So they're protecting a fish. And that didn't work out too well, by the way. So you knew it was going to happen. You did. Throughout California, all coming out from the Pacific North West.

Even some from Canada. Thank you, Canada very much. I appreciate it. Next thing you know, they'll want to turn the water off. They want to charge us for the water. But it comes up from the Pacific Northwest, and it's a beautiful thing to see. I mean, it is brimming with water.

Now, if they would have had that done, you wouldn't have had the damage because the fire would have been put out. The fire hydrants would have been loaded. The sprinklers in people's living rooms and bedrooms would have been loaded up with water. They had no water. The government makes them put sprinklers

and they had no water in this, Franklin's because they had no water. So the water is flowing, and we're going to have to give a lot of money to Los Angeles to help them. Sure. And the Democrats are going to want to do that. So that's the one thing different. And frankly, I think that makes it a lot easier. But one of the, the big thing is we have the big beautiful bill. We've got to get that done.

And that will put our country in a position like it's never been, it's a reduction. I'm not if they're going to shut down the guy. probably not going to happen, right? It's tremendous incentives for companies to come from all over the world into our country. It's great environmentally, but it's not this environmental scam that we went through, that we all went through. It provides for everything. It's a big, beautiful bill, and I hope we can get it approved, and that'll be next.

But in the meantime, we have the continuing resolution, and the Republicans have approved it, and now the Democrats have to approve it, and I hope they will. I think a lot of them, I can tell you, they want to. I've spoken to some of them. They really want to. Their leadership may not want them to. And if it closes, it's purely on the Democrats. One more.

We've seen tension increasing in the peninsula. Do you think of being able to maintain the peace? Do you have any clouds of getting, reestablishing the relationship you had during the first meeting? Well, I would. I had a great relationship with Kim Jong, North Korea. Okay. if Hillary got in, you would have had a nuclear war with North Korea.

He expected it. He expected it. And they said, oh, thousands of people, no, millions of people would have been killed. That's a lot. But I got in. We went to Singapore when we met. We went to Vietnam. We met. We got along really good. We had a very good relationship. And we still do. We still do. You don't have that threat that you had. I mean, look, when I was running the first time. With Kim Jong-un? Okay. You know that better than it?

Yeah. And, and it started off. It started off. It started off very rough. And he wouldn't meet with Obama, wouldn't take his calls. They said, how many times did you call? They called the line.

He wouldn't take their call. He told me I wouldn't take his call. But with me, it did start off rough, if you remember. Very rough, actually, very nasty. It was a Singapore. Yeah, but then. Yeah, so he said he's going to bomb him. But then it stopped.

The rhetoric was extremely tough. It was a little bit of... That's right. It was a little bit dangerous. And then we met. They asked for a meeting. And we met. And the meeting caused the Olympics, which was South Korea to become a tremendous success.

Nobody was buying tickets for the Olympics because they didn't want to be newt. And I met. And not only did the Olympics become successful, but North Korea participated in the Olympics. It was an amazing thing. Did they really? I don't even know that.

Imagine what happens with you lose. Yeah, I'd be worried. So I have a great relationship with Kim Jong-un, and we'll see what happens, but certainly he's a nuclear power. Okay? Thank you very much, everybody. Man, thank you very much. The all-won medals, check it out.

Did they really? Damn, good for them. Wow. Well, there it is. The content president? As I said, bro, he streams more than most streamers. He does a lot. I'm waiting for Trump to say North Korea,

wonderful people, wonderful that are American friends, democratic countries in the world. Yeah, I don't know if that's going to happen, man. I got a pretty good feeling it might not. Sorry to say. But, yeah, there it is. And, yeah, wow. Well, we're annexing Greenland.

We're going to be sending troops over to Greenland. I think this is a, you know, really not a surprise at all. I would kind of expect this. But, yeah, we're going to be annexing and taking over to Greenland, which is nice to see. It's another new place for us to have, expand the empire, take over more countries. You guys know how it is. And so, yeah, great. There it is.

Live stream president. I guess so, right?
