APT

US President Donald Trump has thrown down a stark warning to the world, vowing that any nation doing business with Russia will face “very severe” sanctions. Speaking to reporters, Trump endorsed a tough GOP-led push in Congress targeting countries tied to Russia, hinting that Iran could also be added to the sanctions formula. The president’s hardline stance signals a dramatic escalation in US pressure on nations with economic links to Moscow, sending shockwaves across global trade and diplomacy. #trump #US #russia #apt

00:00Okay, everybody, we had a great weekend.

00:05From an economic standpoint, our prices are coming down very substantially on groceries and things.

00:12They're already at a much lower level than they were with the last administration.

00:17And we worked on it this weekend, and you're going to see some of the items that were a little bit higher.

00:21They were lower than the last administration, but a little bit higher.

00:24We're going to have some little price reductions, and in some cases, some pretty good ones.

00:29They used the affordability word.

00:33The affordability is much, much better with this.

00:35And again, I go to Walmart and other companies, and in every case, it's about 25% that a meal,

00:44a Thanksgiving meal and surroundings are 25% lower than it was under the Biden administration.

00:50That's a big fact, and that comes from Walmart and others that do that.

00:55Okay, any questions?

00:56Any update on Venezuela, Mr. President?

00:59On Venezuela update?

01:01No, no update on Venezuela.

01:03The designation of that cartel associated with Maduro, does that mean that the U.S. government

01:10can target Maduro's assets or infrastructure inside Venezuela?

01:15It allows us to do that, but we haven't said we're going to do that.

01:19And we may be discussing, we may be having some discussions with Maduro, and we'll see how that turns out.

01:27They would like, they would like to talk.

01:30Mr. President, Representative Massey says he's concerned that the Epstein probe you are calling

01:35for could be a smokescreen to lock or leave the more vials.

01:40Is that the case?

01:41Well, I don't want to talk about it because fake news like you, you're a terrible reporter,

01:45and fake news like you, they just keep bringing that up to deflect from the tremendous success

01:51of the Trump administration.

01:53So a guy like Massey, his poll numbers are showing he's at 6% approval rating right now.

01:59And we call him Rand Paul Jr. because he never votes for the Republican Party.

02:04So they're using Jeffrey Epstein as a deflection from the tremendous success that we're having as a party.

02:12Mr. President, on Venezuela, you said they want to talk.

02:15You said Venezuela wants to talk.

02:16What does that mean?

02:17Senator Venezuela would like to talk.

02:19What does that mean?

02:20You tell me.

02:21I don't know.

02:21Do you want to talk to them?

02:23I would talk.

02:23I'd talk to anybody.

02:24I'd talk to you.

02:25Right?

02:26I'd talk to anybody.

02:27We'll see what happens.

02:28Senator Green says her life could be in danger because of the rhetoric.

02:32Her life is in danger?

02:34Who's that?

02:35Marjorie Taylor Green, she says.

02:37Marjorie Trader Green.

02:39I don't think her life is in danger.

02:41I don't think, frankly, I don't think anybody cares about her.

02:45Okay, what about?

02:46What about the affordability of health care?

02:47Are you negotiating?

02:49Are you negotiating with lawmakers on health care ahead of a vote next?

02:53I am negotiating with lawmakers.

02:56And I've had personal talks with some Democrats.

02:58I can't tell you who they are.

03:00I just don't want to do that.

03:01It's not fair to them.

03:03About paying large amounts of dollars back to the people.

03:09You know, this was my idea.

03:10It came up during that.

03:12You know, oftentimes, under times of stress, like the shutdown, you come up with great ideas

03:19that you wouldn't have thought of before.

03:21The insurance companies are making a fortune.

03:24Their stock is up over 1,000 percent over a short period of time.

03:28They are taking in hundreds of billions of dollars.

03:31And they're not really putting it back, certainly not like they should.

03:35So when I see this, and when I've seen this over the last pretty short period of time,

03:40I said, why do we just pay this money directly to the people of our country

03:46and let them buy their own health insurance?

03:49And, you know, I made that statement, and I made it a little bit cavalierly, but it sounded good.

03:55And everybody is picked up, including Democrats.

03:58And I am talking to some Democrats right now about doing that.

04:02People love it.

04:04We're going to take the money.

04:05Well, if it gets approved.

04:06We're going to take the money.

04:07We're going to pay it back to the people of our country to go out and buy health insurance.

04:13Now, they could put it in a health account.

04:15We could do it a lot of different ways.

04:17But they'd buy their own health insurance.

04:19They could negotiate price.

04:22And it's going to be locked, so they can't go out and buy a Cadillac.

04:26They could go out and buy health insurance.

04:29Mr. President, is it time for Congress to move legislation that puts pressure on Russia and puts pressure on Putin?

04:38Well, I hear they're doing that, and that's okay with me.

04:41They're passing legislation or putting, the Republicans are putting in legislation that's very tough.

04:49It's sanctioning, et cetera, et cetera, on any country doing business with Russia.

04:55They may add Iran to that, as you know.

04:57I suggested it.

04:58So any country that does business with Russia will be very severely sanctioned.

05:05We may add Iran to the formula.

05:07Yeah.

05:07Mr. President, Tucker Carlson recently had a front-league interview with anti-Semite Nick Flentes.

05:13What role do you think Tucker Carlson should play in the Republican Party and the conservative movement going forward?

05:19Well, I found him to be good.

05:20I mean, he's said good things about me over the years.

05:23I think he's good.

05:25We've had some good interviews.

05:26I did an interview with him.

05:28We were at 300 million hits.

05:30You know that.

05:33Look, I can't tell him.

05:36Should he be?

05:37Will you let me finish my statement?

05:39You are the worst.

05:40You're with Bloomberg, right?

05:41You are the worst.

05:42I don't know why they even have you.

05:46We've had some great interviews with Tucker Carlson.

05:49But you can't tell him who to interview.

05:51I mean, if he wants to interview Nick Fuentes, I don't know much about him.

05:55But if he wants to do it, get the word out.

05:57Let him, you know, people have to decide.

05:59Ultimately, people have to decide.

06:02The mayor of New York, I will say, would like to meet with us and we'll work something out.

06:06But he would like to come to Washington and meet and we'll work something out.

06:10We want to see everything work out well for New York.

06:13You yourself, I did it with Nick Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago a few years ago.

06:16What role should he play in the conservative movement?

06:18Well, I didn't know he was coming and he was with, as you know, somebody, Kanye.

06:23And Kanye asked if he could have dinner and he brought Nick.

06:26I didn't know Nick at the time.

06:28And he did.

06:30He came along with a few other people.

06:32He brought a few people with him.

06:36Meeting people, talking to people, like for somebody like Tucker, that's what they do.

06:40You know, people are controversial.

06:42Some are, some aren't.

06:44I'm not controversial, so I like it that way.

06:47In Venezuela, are you discussing options with Congress?

06:51Are you going to Congress to discuss potential options you're considering?

06:55I'd like to keep Congress involved.

06:57I mean, we're stopping drug dealers and drugs from coming into our country.

07:02And I actually told Marco and some of the people, our Secretary of State is doing a great job, by the way.

07:07I said, go to Congress and let them know we're not letting drugs come through Mexico.

07:13We're not letting them come through Venezuela.

07:15And let Congress know about it.

07:17We don't have to get their approval, but I think letting them know is good.

07:21The only thing I don't want them to do is leak information that's very important and confidential

07:26and may put our military at risk or whoever is doing, you know, CIA, military, et cetera.

07:33But I did say, I said, go and see Congress, see the representatives that we're supposed to be seeing,

07:40and be open about it.

07:41If they say, we don't want you to stop drugs from coming into the country,

07:45I don't think that would be good, yes.

07:48Are many other countries committed to helping the U.S. with Venezuela, or is all our actions still...

07:54Yeah, we have great support because it's all about drugs.

07:57Well, in Venezuela's case, it's about drugs,

08:00and it's also about thousands, hundreds of thousands of people that they've released into our country.

08:07And some are gang members from Trente de Aragua.

08:10Some are drug... many are drug dealers.

08:13Some are murderers.

08:14So in the case of Venezuela, it's about the prison population.

08:19Their almost entire prison population was released into the United States.

08:25Do you know what that means?

08:27Their prison population was released into the United States.

08:31And we're getting it out.

08:33We're doing an amazing job.

08:35We have a strong border now.

08:36We have everything.

08:37Our country's doing so well.

08:38But what the Biden administration did to our country should never be forgotten.

08:43And the single worst thing they did is allow 20 or 25 million people to pour into our country.

08:51People from prisons, drug dealers, mental institutions, bad people, gang members.

08:58To allow that to happen to the United States, totally unchecked and unvetted, should never be forgotten.

09:06What they've done to our country is a very big thing.

09:08But we are correcting it.

09:10We have strong borders now.

09:11We have a great economy.

09:13The prices are coming down.

09:15The Democrats like to use the word affordability.

09:18But their affordability was terrible.

09:21The problem with the Democrats, they lie.

09:23They do it so well.

09:24They talk about affordability.

09:26But I'm the one that's getting the prices down.

09:28As an example, they had the highest inflation in the history of our country.

09:33I have it down now to a normal level.

09:35And it's going down further.

09:37Thank you very much, everybody.

09:38Thank you so much.
