00:00Well, I think the Republicans are going to win, but if there was, as you call it, gridlock,
00:04what happens is I veto everything, and then the Democrats come and they want to make a deal.
00:09So, we'll work on that.
00:10I mean, if you look historically, when you have a situation where that would happen,
00:16if it happens, you veto, veto, veto, and then they come and they say,
00:20how do we get it done? And you make a deal.
00:21So, we had a big night last night, and you know, it was a very successful night.
00:27I think we carried some people across the finish line. We'll see.
00:31But that was great in Iowa. Now I'm going to Fort Myers.
00:35And we'll, I think, we have a tremendous crowd, I can tell you, they're lined up miles long,
00:41but we'll be there soon. I think.
00:43President, the ceasefire is really good news.
00:46Will the First Lady be a part of the trilateral peace talks?
00:51No, but it's not the worst idea I've ever heard.
00:53Have you thought of her head?
00:54What she wants to do is save children.
00:56And that's her focus.
00:58And both sides are cooperating with her.
01:01So, doing a very good job.
01:03How does that all come about, Mr. President?
01:04Her initiative.
01:06And they contacted both sides, and both sides wanted to do it.
01:10Is there any news on a new press secretary that you can give us a new press secretary?
01:16No, nothing much. We're in no rush.
01:17But there's a new book out that says Jared Kushner had access to $2 billion from Middle Eastern countries.
01:24It's a false story.
01:25It's a false story. You don't know anything about that?
01:27No, it's a totally false story.
01:29It's totally an incorrect story. It was just fake news. It's amazing.
01:33Mr. President, you must know now who ordered the Starlink access in Ukraine to be restricted.
01:39Who was it?
01:40Well, I wouldn't tell you if I did know. I have no idea.
01:43But I wouldn't tell you if I did know. Why would I tell you? Who are you in?
01:47I'm a CNN, sir.
01:49Why would I tell CNN?
01:51Although they did do some nice polls on me, I'm not sure.
01:53What do you mean?
01:54What do you mean?
01:55CNN, each of those polls, I like them more.
01:57The Lenspeak says there's still restricted access.
02:00The Lenspeak says they still are receiving slow access.
02:02Well, if there is a problem, I'll get it straight.
02:03President Trump, 20,000 non-citizens are on the voter rolls of California.
02:0720,000 non-citizens.
02:09Well, I'm not surprised. It could be hundreds of thousands.
02:11That was just a batch. 20,000 absolutely fraudulent in California for voting.
02:17And it could be 100,000. It could be three, four, five hundred thousand.
02:23California is very corrupt with voting.
02:25So is Minnesota. So are many other states.
02:29On a run, sir!
02:30Early voting is at record levels in a number of states that are critical for Republicans to hold on to
02:37the Senate.
02:37Texas, Ohio, North Carolina.
02:39Who do you think that early voting is going to be?
02:42Well, nobody knows. I mean, we'll find out.
02:43I think that we're doing very well against Tala Friko.
02:47I think we're doing very well.
02:49We have the best attorney general in the history of Texas running.
02:51So I think we're doing well.
02:53But we're going to find out.
02:54The numbers are very high all over.
02:56The numbers in, like I was in Iowa.
02:58I saw the enthusiasm last night.
03:00I think there's great Republican enthusiasm.
03:03I really think, you know, I keep hearing about different things.
03:07You've been following me.
03:08I've been, you've been packed.
03:10Every house, every house is people that can't get in.
03:13Fort Myers, that's Florida.
03:16They say they've never seen anything like it.
03:18So, I mean, if that counts, I think we're doing very well.
03:21Do you have any message that you told you not told you about that you're allowed?
03:26Which is strange in our nation?
03:27I have not spoken to you.
03:29I might, I might have to, but I have not.
03:32I've heard, I've heard it was fixed.
03:34But if it's not, I'll stick to it.
03:36I've heard a message to the minority voters that support me so much.
03:40Now that we're in the mix, any message to minority and black voters?
03:43I think the minority voters have been great to me, you know.
03:45So, I've been great to the minority voter.
03:47Look what I've done for, as an example.
03:51With the historically black colleges and universities, I've taken care of them.
03:57I've been very good.
03:58The Hispanic voters have been great to me.
04:00But I've been great to them, too.
04:02You know, there's a reason.
04:03And I've been great to Hispanics.
04:05I've been great to blacks.
04:06I've been great to pretty much everywhere.
04:08It's a different Republican Party.
04:10But we're also the party of the worker.
04:13It's a much bigger party than it used to be.
04:15I mean, if you go back 10 years ago, before I got on the scene,
04:19it's a much more powerful party.
04:21It's a much bigger, frankly, more important party.
04:24On a roster, Mr. President, on a roster.
04:25You've been campaigning nonstop for the past few weeks.
04:28You'll campaign nonstop next week.
04:29Who do you view right now as the most vulnerable Republican Senate candidates?
04:35Well, I wouldn't want to say that.
04:37I wouldn't want to say that.
04:39But there are a couple that are a little bit vulnerable.
04:42There are a couple where they had a little bad luck over the last couple of weeks.
04:45Something came out about.
04:47But the Democrats have that, too.
04:49I mean, look, if you look at El Sayyad in Michigan, you take a look at that.
04:55I mean, he's had warm, bad publicity.
04:57But, you know, we'll see what happens.
04:59I do think that some of the networks give too much airtime to the opponents, if you want to know
05:04the question.
05:05I've always said on Iran, my mom said that there could be a stalemate for up to a year.
05:11And the U.S. is preparing for an extended conflict.
05:14But you keep saying it's going to end the week.
05:15Well, we can end it very quickly.
05:18But Iran is a failing nation.
05:20And we're taking all the oil out that we want.
05:23You see that with the Homeland Security, our Navy.
05:25And we have it blocked up for them, but nobody else.
05:27And everybody is taking oil out.
05:30In fact, last week, we took more oil out than we have ever taken it out, even before the war.
05:36So that was a big sticking point.
05:39So we have that.
05:40And they have inflation.
05:42They have no money.
05:43You know, the question is, do we want to finish it off or do we let it, do we just
05:47want to let it wither?
05:49Because we're getting everything we want.
05:51Steve, we have more oil coming out of the Homeland Security today than they did a year ago.
05:55Mr. President, on Israel, do you think the Vice President?
05:58We're going to vote tomorrow, I think.
06:00I think we're voting tomorrow in Florida.
06:02How come Elon Omar doesn't have a gag order like, how come Elon Omar doesn't have a gag order like
06:07you did?
06:07Oh, I love that question.
06:09I love that question.
06:10She should have.
06:11But look, what she did is, her whole life is a scam.
06:15So I think her whole life is a total scam.
06:18Mr. President, do you think your Vice President, J.D. Vance, should have enforced Netanyahu just like you did?
06:24I don't know that he did or didn't.
06:26Is that something to him?
06:27He didn't.
06:27I would leave that up to him.
06:29Mr. President, if there is gridlock for the next two years, obviously you don't want to see that.
06:34But if there is, would that be bad for the U.S. economy?
06:37No, it would be probably good because we're taking a tremendous...
06:40Don't forget, when you say gridlock, you're talking about Iran?
06:45We're talking about gridlock in terms of your legislative agenda.
06:48Oh, gridlock, that.
06:50Let's talk about gridlock with Iran.
06:52Iran is not able to do much now.
06:54And we could, if we wanted to, just take all of the oil.
06:57We could take the whole country.
06:58We could take all of the oil.
07:00And as you know, the hormones trade is totally ours.
07:03And that's the way we'll keep it.
07:05So in that way, that would be...
07:07The gridlock is very interesting because they have no money.
07:10They have inflation that's 301%.
07:14They're the highest in the world right now.
07:16So we'll see.
07:17As far as...
07:19Political gridlock.
07:19You're talking about if the Republicans didn't win?
07:22Right.
07:23Just political gridlock in Washington.
07:24Well, I think the Republicans are going to win.
07:26But if there was, as you call it, gridlock, what happens is I veto everything and then the Democrats come
07:32and they want to make a deal.
07:33So we'll work with that.
07:34I mean, if you look historically, when you have a situation where that would happen, if it happened, you veto,
07:42veto, veto, veto.
07:43And then they come and they say, how do we get it done?
07:45And you make a deal.
