00:00Mr. President, your director of national counterterrorism, Joe Kent, he just resigned today.
00:05He said he can't support your conflict with Iran. What's your reaction to that?
00:09And did you talk to him?
00:10Well, I read his statement. I always thought he was a nice guy, but I always thought he was
00:14weak on security, very weak on security. I didn't know him well, but I thought he seemed
00:20like a pretty nice guy. But when I read his statement, I realized that it's a good thing
00:27that he's out because he said that Iran was not a threat. Iran was a threat. Every country
00:34realized what a threat Iran was. The question is whether or not they wanted to do something
00:38about it. And many people, many of the greatest military scholars are saying for years that
00:43presidents should have taken out Iran because they wanted a nuclear weapon. They were, if we didn't
00:49do the attack, or if, I'll go a step further, if I didn't terminate the Iran nuclear deal,
00:55given to us, one of the worst deals ever made by Barack Hussein Obama. Remember when they
01:00said Boeing 757s over there? Loaded with cash. Hundreds of millions of dollars. You would have
01:07been very happy. This was a wonderful thing. They said hundreds of millions. People forget
01:12that. Does anybody remember? Right? You remember. Hundreds of millions of dollars in a Boeing 757.
01:19I think they had two of them loaded. They took the seats out and they put cash. And it was
01:25so much
01:25that there wasn't a bank in Virginia, Maryland, or DC that had any money left. They stripped them of
01:32all their money, put it into place, sent it to Iran, almost as ransom. That's not going to happen
01:39with Trump. And nobody ever did anything about it. Nobody ever said anything about it. Can you imagine
01:44if I did that? So they've been a threat for a long time. But they've really been a threat.
01:50If I didn't terminate Obama's horrible deal that he made, the Iran nuclear deal,
01:56you would have had a nuclear war four years ago. You would have had nuclear holocaust.
02:03And you would have had it again if we didn't bomb the site. So when somebody is working with us
02:10that says they didn't think Iran was a threat, we don't want those people because, and there are
02:17some people, I guess I would say that, but they're not smart people or they're not savvy people.
02:22Iran was a tremendous threat. And virtually every NATO nation, and this is the thing, if they told me
02:28it wasn't a threat, and therefore they don't want to help. But when they say it was a threat,
02:33and it was a major threat, every one of them, I think every one of them, I don't know if
02:38one
02:38that said they're not a threat, but when they say it was a threat, but we're not going to help,
02:45I think they're very foolish.
