Good morning. How are you? Are you okay? You know who's not okay? Donald Trump. You know why I know
he's not okay? Because Fox News just cut away from him mid-sentence as he was going off the deep end
attacking a fellow Republican. Donald Trump's also in deep trouble because we can see now what he's
doing. He's manipulating markets. He's tweeting things one day to move the markets in one
direction and then the next day tweeting something else so that markets shift.
Now, Iran has completely denied what Donald Trump said earlier today that made markets go insane.
Donald Trump responded to that. And again, I do have Fox News cutting away from Donald Trump.
It all happened moments ago. First, let's go to this statement from the President of the United
States who makes absolutely no sense. I am pleased to report that the United States, the United
States of America and the country of Iran have had over the last two days very good and productive
conversations regarding a complete and total resolution of our hostilities in the Middle East
based on the tenor and tone of these in-depth details and constructed conversations, which will
continue throughout the week. I have instructed the Department of War to postpone any and all
military strikes against Iranian power plants and energy infrastructure for a five-day period
subject to the success of the ongoing meetings and discussions. Thank you for your attention
to this matter in all caps, like a psycho.
All right, well, Iran heard this and responded to it, and you're not going to believe it,
the president is lying.
A senior source of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, we deny what President
Donald Trump said regarding any negotiations between the United States and the Islamic
Republic of Iran.
The Islamic Republic of Iran remains committed to its stance of rejecting any form of negotiations,
until Iran's objectives in the war are achieved.
Trump's statements reflect a retreat from his previous threats,
yet the Islamic Republic of Iran continues to uphold all its declared positions.
Iran's stance regarding the Strait of Hamous has not changed.
The Strait will remain closed to any aggressors against the Islamic Republic and its people.
So basically calling the President of the States a bitch.
Donald Trump responded to Iran's news as the following.
Mr. President, Iran's foreign ministry says you're not telling the truth when it comes to productive conversations to end the war.
Well, they're going to have to get themselves better of public relations, people.
We have had very, very strong talks. We'll see where they lead. We have major points of agreement.
I would say almost all points of agreement. Perhaps that hasn't been conveyed. The communication, as you know, has been blown to pieces.
They're unable to talk to each other. But we've had very strong.
talks, Mr. Witkoff and Mr. Kushner had them. They went, I would say perfectly. I would say that
if they carry through with that, it'll end that problem, that conflict. And I think it'll end it
very, very substantially. We have very much in mind our partners in the Middle East. We've had
great relationships with a lot of them, as you know. A lot of them were surprisingly hit. And I was
surprised to see it and so was everyone else but we have uh they're very much in mind in the discussions
so the discussions took place yesterday they went into yesterday evening uh they want very much to make a deal
i don't believe you in fact i know that you're lying why i know you're lying because the only
reason why you would tell the truth is if it made you look good this does not make you look good
It makes you look incredibly weak.
So no, I don't believe a word you are saying.
Now, this is what actually happened.
Look at this.
At 704, Trump said the U.S. and Iran had productive talks.
Markets go crazy.
Six minutes later, the S&P surges 240 points, adding $2 trillion.
At $7.34, Iran denies these talks.
Markets go down, erasing $1 trillion.
In this moment here, someone made a lot of money.
My hope is that what we will do when we get power again is we will discover who was trading on information like this,
and we will prosecute them to the full extent of the law.
Tim Poole said this about Iran, said, whether Trump was telling the truth or not,
Iran is calling him a bitch with this comment.
They have no interest in de-escalation.
Trump will likely ignore.
They say any response would be bad for the markets is looking like failure at this point.
Now, Fox News cut away quickly from Trump after he started to go insane.
You know, Mr. President?
Do you know whether Joe Pence was leaking?
Look, I'm not a fan of the guy.
If you look at, and you never cover this, if you look at his truth or whatever he went on,
X or truth. If you look at his truths or his statements, he was all for everything. All of a sudden,
he wasn't. He was a man that I met at Dover. He came and his wife was killed. He remarried
fairly quickly. His wife was killed. And I felt badly for him. He ran for Congress. He lost.
He ran for Congress again and he lost. I said, you know, he's a guy, nice guy.
seemed like a very nice guy. I bet him he was pretty heartbroken. Pretty. But I said, you know,
it's a shame. He ran for Congress twice. Call him up. Give him a job in the White House. Smart.
They gave me a job in the White House. And this is what he does to me, you know? Being a nice guy
doesn't pay off too much. Think of it. He loses twice in Congress. Ran not very good campaigns.
Should have one, but he loses twice.
How do I get him?
I have my people call him, because I didn't deal with him for the most part.
I saw him a couple of times, but I never dealt with him at all.
I had no idea his ideology was left or right, whatever it is.
I can say this.
He said very strongly that Iran is not a threat.
Iran's been a threat for 47 years, and there's not a country in the world that doesn't agree with me in that.
So I take this guy, Joe Kent, who lost twice for Congress pretty badly and tough and it was devastated.
And I know that he lost his wife.
So instead of letting him live out his life, I brilliantly have my people call him and offer him a job in security, essentially, in the White House.
And what does he do?
He goes out and he says that Iran is not a threat to get publicity.
I probably signed up with CNN or maybe signed up with your division of newsbacks.
I don't know.
President Trump taking many, many questions there outside of Air Force One on his way to Memphis
in a moment, taking a lot of questions, especially about Iran just then.
You were talking about Joe Kent, who had resigned last week over the Iran war.
And he was talking about it.
Pretty incredible, right?
I mean, that presser went on for another 20 to 30 minutes.
And Fox News is like, get us out of here.
The president is not on message.
and he is trafficking in resentment.
This is why I know that what Joe Ken's doing
is actually making a big impact,
because Donald Trump went on a tear for several minutes
during oppressor in order to character assassinate Batman.
You only do that if you know what your opponent is saying
is either true or it hurts.
I think in this case it happens to do both.
Now, I will say this too.
Donald Trump also isn't making sense
around any of this stuff.
I was shocked when I saw this.
If you were obliterated their nuclear sites last summer with your strikes,
then how can you argue it was an imminent threat now?
Oh, we hit them so hard.
Try to see if this makes sense to you.
Try to see this makes sense.
I could not follow the roadmap.
We oblitered them.
but obliterated them.
But that doesn't mean with the right equipment,
you can't dig down and go get it.
We don't want that.
And we won't have that.
But we obliterated that site.
They still haven't been able to get it.
That was a complete success.
But if it wasn't, they would have had,
if we didn't hit them,
if we didn't use the B-2 bombers,
which are unbelievable.
We just ordered 22 more of a modern version,
by the way, super-modern version.
If we didn't hit them with the B2 bombers, they would have had within two weeks of that attack.
That's why we hit them because we knew they would have had a nuclear weapon.
They would have used it on Israel and the entire Middle East.
We beliterated them, but they could have dug down and gotten it, so we had to go fight them more.
By the way, the B2 bombers, we ordered 22 more of them, and we got more modern versions.
What?
What?
All right.
Well, the president will be in Memphis later today.
And we will cover that.
And, uh, yeah, this is, this is just, I mean, I guess it's good that he's not bombing
or wrong today from what he's saying.
Can he be trusted?
No.
But not great that he's using this opportunity to make tons and tons of money.
But I do think this is the beginning of the end of Trump's presidency and his
power. So we're seeing, we're seeing a star collapse within itself. I mean, it's kind of
beautiful to see. We'll see you soon.
