we have caught people doing things that are terrible i would much prefer keeping rod rosenstein much prefer many people say i have the right to absolutely firm he said he did not say it he said he does not believe that. and nobody in this room believes that by the way i deal with the people in the suv i was with my pump a zero before we were dealing at a very high level with japan and i was saying things that nobody in the room even understood i said i'm a long time ago and i was right he said that's not the twenty fifth amendment that i'm looking at i think i can say that from mike so you don't think anyone in your administration has ever discussed the twenty using the twenty fifth amendment against you i don't think so while your enemies sure use any and yes race in a cap and you use anything they can they're not in love with me they're not going to beat me in the election they know that they're not going to beat me the people that i'm looking at are total lightweights i dream of running against those with

maybe i'm up for somebody that's not they're not going to beat me i'm against what they want to do i'm in favor of. law enforcement i'm in favor of safety and security and low taxes i want to low taxes i want borders we're getting another one point six billion in borders i want borders we've spent three point two and we're getting another one point six and then eventually we're getting the whole thing will complete the wall they don't want that they don't want that they don't want the things that i have now i must say i know many of the democrats they'll say things and then wink at me. and again it's the same old story they'll say things they don't mean it's politics the reason they don't want me is because they want to run the show they want it it's power it's whatever you want to call it but what they've done here is a disgrace a total disgrace. and what they do i know it's sort of interesting in one case they

say he's a fascist he's taking over the government he's the most powerful president ever he's a horrible human being he wants to take over the entire government and he's going to do it we can't stop that didn't work the next week he said. he's incompetent as it would have been in one case some taken over the world and in the other case he's incompetent they tried that for a week that didn't work look. these are very dishonest people these a con artists and the press knows it but the press doesn't write it. wow that's a lot of hands. that's a lot of steve. he's a very high quality person this man but he'll probably hit with a bad one why why i had given him a limited immunity hearing reuters you're getting letters from chairman kim why do you need a second summit with the north korean leader so soon and what because he'd like what would it be for so i've received two letters from chairman kim at some point

you know give these letters they're incredible letters they're they're letters that are magnificent in the sense of. his feeling for wanting to get this done i really believe he wants to get it i may be wrong i heard somebody on a certain network last night i won't mention which one say why has president trump given so much to north korea so women. i asked sarah huckabee please call this person i give nothing other than i met what did i give him i didn't do what obama did give him one point eight billion dollars in cash to get back for hostages i got back our hostages i never paid them anything i haven't paid them ten cents but he wants to make a deal and i'd like to make a deal we actually have a very good relationship together a lot different than the last time i was at the united nations that was a little bit rough don't forget that time they said all trump is saying these horrible things he's going to get us into a war you're going to have

a war if i was elected you'd be in a war and president obama centrally said the same thing he was ready to go to war you would have had a war you would've lost millions not thousands you were lost millions of people soul has thirty million people forty miles and thirty miles from this very dangerous border if i was an elected you would have had a war president obama thought you had to go to war you know how close he was to pressing the trigger for war millions of people with me nobody's talking about that nobody's talking about that we have a very good relationship he likes me i like him we get along he wrote me two of the most beautiful letters. when i showed one of the letters just one to prime minister a he said this is actually a groundbreaking letter this is an incredible this is a historic letter and it is a historic letter it's a beautiful it's

a beautiful piece of art and i think we're going to make a deal will we make a deal steve i don't really know but i think we're going to in the meantime and have said it i don't want to bore you no rockets no missiles no nuclear tests you know for over a year you haven't seen before i got here everybody in this room thought you were going to war. and then what happened it was funny they said he was terrible he was so rough with chairman kim kim jong un he was so rough it's terrible he's going to close well i had a great meeting with president putin and on that when they said he was too soft with president potent at a great meeting with president lasted for two hours we discussed everything ukraine syria israel and israel's protection we had a great meeting they wanted me to end up at a boxing match and you know what if i was killer tough with president putin they would have said he was too tough you can't win with these people but you just keep

going in the meantime we're doing well how do you how long how long are you one of them do you think you should take north korea to the new i don't i don't want to get into to most a one year leave i don't want to get into the time game you know why i told my compass a bike don't get into the time game we stopped i'm taken down. plants that taken down a lot of different testing in areas they're going to take down some more you'll be hearing about that very soon i don't want to go ahead of myself but you'll be hearing about it soon. they have no interest right now in testing nuclear you know we had a case just about when i was coming into office you remember where there was a massive they thought it was an earthquake a mountain moved over an inch and a half we're talking about bounce in a north korea's very mountainous beautiful land beautiful this mountain actually shifted it shifted. and somebody thought it was an earthquake and then they found no this was nuclear testing shifted amount i'm talking about serious stuff serious

size. when i came in and certainly before i came in and even at the beginning of my because what i was having rhetorical contests you know contests really i guess you could call it with chairman cam which we both smile at now when we left. but everybody thought that was a horrible thing. we've had many presidents were unable to do anything anything at all with north korea we don't have a good relationship we have a good relationship and most importantly all of the things that you've been hearing about the horror stories in my opinion that now could they start up again yes i'm a deal guy with a cert yeah could be that we don't work it out i think i have it right here and i think that what we've done behind the scenes which nobody really knows about not to blame you for not knowing about personal letters private letters but saying they

want to get it done. we know much more than the media for a change much more. but if you saw what's going on behind the scenes i think you'd be very impressed we were a country going to war i really believe that president obama would admit that he said it's by far his biggest problem when i sat with him. prior to going to office going into office. he said to me that's by far the biggest problem and he said to me that he was very close to going into war and millions of people not you know i they say oh thousands of people no no not that essence millions of people would have been killed and that could have left you know right next to china iran that could have been a world war very easily right now we're in a great position i don't want to play the time game i told mike pump a oh don't let them do that i haven't given anything and all of a sudden we got back it was

a few weeks ago think we're back like two and a half months from the summit which was a great success. and people are screaming what's taking so long i said oh i get it you gotta understand the media been deal with the media all my life too much too much they're screaming and i saw that in our guys were a number mike but our guys were being all well we're working as fast i said i got all the time in the world i don't have to rush it there's no you know says sation of sanctions we got the sanctions and i didn't take any sanctions or i did see the reporter list and a guy i like personally a lot and he asked a question to president of south korea he said why did the president gives a much i give anything i give nothing what have i given other than some time yes i flew to singapore we had a meeting now giving would be if i took the sanctions of i didn't want to do

u.s. general mattis for a year and a half i said why don't we stop these ridiculous in my opinion the military games i call him the military games if i told you how much those games cost and frankly i told south korea you should be paying for these games we pay for they say well we fly the planes in from a short distance away and said where is that guam oh. how long a trip is it seven hours oh great we're flying these massive bombers and if i want to stop this for a long time i consider that an asset but we've done that we're saving by the way just for the tax that we're saving a fortune and if we need them we can serve them up immediately if i think we need them up sort of before the generals will start up. the fact is this reporter said that i said what if we don't. i haven't given anything and we're really on to the cusp i think we're really going to do something that's going to be very important but we're not playing the time game if it takes two years three years or five

months. doesn't matter there's no nuclear testing and there's no testing of rockets yes. go ahead please. this is the one that was nodding with every nice thing i said so watch this question it's mine how it's almost beautiful your way through and it's almost beautiful ok. congratulations on the purchase. nothing to do with me and i hope you benefited. go ahead are you at all concerned at the message that has been sending being sent to the women who are watching this when you use language like condo in malaysia i think i've used much worse language of my life than con job that's like probably the nicest phrase i've ever used on job it is it's a conjure you know confidence is a confidence but they sure it's a con job by the democrats they know it. what about the message that's being they

did the same thing with the russia investigation they can try to convince people that i had something to do with russia there was no collusion think of it i'm in wisconsin i'm in michigan i said gee we're not doing well i won both us states we're not doing well let me call the russians to help this anybody really believe that it's a con job and i watch these guys little adam schiff and all of the guys he takes a call from a russian who turned out to be a faker you know he was a comedian or something this is someone so calling for he talked to co why is he taking a call from a russian senator warner took a call from a russian he was a comedian or something but that we have pictures of president whoa where can i get a if we have a did that it would be like a big deal. yeah it's a con job and it's not a bad term it's not a bad term at all are you i'll tell you one thing i can say i've had a lot of people talking about this to me with respect to what's happening because

it's a horrible precedent. i'm going to have to get other judges and other supreme court judges possibly i could have a lot of supreme court judges more than two and when i called up. brett kavanaugh book to him and his family and told them that i chose them. they were so happy and so honored it was as though i mean the biggest thing that's ever happened and i understand that the u.s. supreme court. i don't want to be in a position where people say no thanks no thanks i don't want to you know i spoke to somebody thirty eight years ago and it may not be good. we have a country to run we want the best talent in the world but i'll tell you this the people that have complained to me about it the most but what's happening are women

women are very angry. you know i got fifty two percent with women everyone said this couldn't happen fifty two percent women are so angry. and i frankly think that i think they like what the republicans are doing but i think they would have liked to have seen it go a lot faster but give them their day in court let her have her day in court let somebody else have a day in court. but the ones that i find i mean i have men that don't like it but i have women that are incensed at what's going on i've always said women and smarter than men i've said that a lot and i mean it but women women are incensed at what's going on yes go ahead. go ahead. go ahead in the back. who you are where you from you know you look at looks like he's shocked but this is going to be not good it's going to be

a good guy looks totally like stunned that i've you have you ever been picked before for a question yes but not from fresno you know as they give me a thank you very much my name is magically from the media network i want to ask you you always talk about me you said where from where we're from could this sound reason ok rock occurred good good or great people thank you sir it's great to be president mr peck you are you a kurd mr president. they're great people great fighters i like them a lot let's go out like this where are you always say you support your allies kurds right now after the defeat of isis are under a lot of pressure in syria and in iraq by many adverse screw ups will you do to elevate their position to support them in order after they helped the united states to defeat i just know we are helping them a lot and we've been very friendly with them as you know we've fought side by side and we have defeated isis essentially

a very short while ago in the middle east and we did it with a lot of help from the kurds and they are they're great fighters you know some people are great fighters and some people are the kurds a great fighters and the great great people and we're going to be we're discussing that situation exactly right now what would you do to support them so well i'm just telling you we're going to be discussing that situation we have already started discussing that situation but we have had tremendous support from the kurds in defeating isis and i'm not serious there in the. yes go. you don't need it mr president says in leave from fox business if you reject a one on one meeting with a team prime minister justin trudeau the idea why because tariffs are too high and he doesn't seem to want to move and i've told him forget about it and frankly we're thinking about just taxing cars coming in from canada that's the motherlode that's the big one we're very unhappy with the negotiations and the negotiating style of

canada we don't like their representative very much they've taken advantage of canada by the way i have so many friends i have everybody and so many friends but that has nothing to do with us i'm representing the united states mexico was totally i mean they were great by the way the new president has been great. the deal is done now it has to go through congress and you know a lot of things have to happen but we've done bob lighters or who is here someplace where bob bob light house has done a great job of negotiating as they have but the deal is done to this congress it but canada has treated us very badly they've treated our farmers in wisconsin and new york state that a lot of other states very badly dairy products three hundred percent three hundred percent how do you sell a dairy product at three hundred percent the answer is you don't what it is is a barrier it's basically they're saying we don't have any berries by the way it's three hundred percent so you don't send it in because you can't compete so canada

has a long way to go i must be honest with you we're not getting along at all with the negotiators we think they're negotiators have taken advantage of our country for a long time we had people that didn't know what they were doing and that's why we had over the last five or six years if you average it out we had eight hundred billion dollars a year in trade losses it's ridiculous it's not going to happen what about mat nafta serves the president nafta what does that mean for nafta will he be pulling out of now after. i don't like nafta i never like it's been very bad for the united states been great for canada it's been great for mexico very bad for a small lot of thing i'm not going to use the name after i refuse to use it i've seen thousands of plants and factories i've seen millions of jobs lost to auto companies that move them in mexico has twenty five percent of our auto business now because of nafta under our deal we're going to happen anymore hate to tell you it's not with that we're going to keep companies and i we i told the

mexicans i said we have to keep companies but they're getting a lot also they getting other things they're getting a lot of good things mexico made a very good deal but with canada it's very tough what we're doing is if we made a deal with canada which is a you know good chance still but i'm not making anything near what they want to do but you're going to be fair beautified congress and what we're probably going to do is call it the u.s. embassy like the united states marine corps which i love general kelly likes it even more whiz general kelly he likes that u.s.m.c. which would be us mexico canada but it will probably or possibly be just us. it will be united states and next yes or no canada will come along now if canada doesn't make a deal with us we're going to make a much better deal we're going to tax the cars that come in we will put billions and billions of dollars into our treasury and frankly we'll be very happy because it's actually more money than you can make under any circumstance with making

a deal. good job do you do if you do a very good job really. yes place mr curd. go ahead thank you very much for your time mr president to creepily questions what's real be do us your relations with the kurds oh i thought i just i said isis . ok we're trying to get along very well we do get along great with the kurds we're trying to help them a lot don't forget that's their territory that's we have to help them these orders . don't let it happen i said don't let it happen that doesn't mean they can't be selective they can't be you know go in and they've got to do what they've got to do with terrorists assume the terrorists but don't kill millions of people and it stopped you so that nobody's going to give me credit but

that's ok that's ok because the people now i have had more syrians thank me for that this was about four weeks ago i put that out i said this surrounding a city of three million people they're going to start bombing the city. don't let it happen. and i meant it to i meant it and millions of people have been saved and i gave today great credit to iran i don't know if you heard that i gave great credit to iran to russia and to syria for not doing it now i hope it's going to be surgical meaning go in and do it's lengthy and everything else and they possibly have to do it but i think millions of people would have been killed and that would have been a shame and hopefully and i have to tell you turkey has been a big help turkey has been great turkey has helped us very much with that whole situation yes yes. thank you mr president

thank you very much touching back on iran of course this week you put out a call to action to other countries to rally with america to put pressure on iran rouhani still calling for the u.s. to come back into the old deal but after meeting with world leaders this week did you make any progress towards a potential new deal doesn't matter what world leaders think on iran iran's going to come back to me are they going to make a good deal i think maybe that. deal you never know. but this suffering greatly to having riots in every city far greater than they were during the green period with president obama far greater when president obama stuck up for government not the people he probably would have had a much different iran had he not. but i'm sticking up for the people i am with the people of iran but here's the thing. they have rampant inflation their money is worthless everything is going room they have riots in the street you can't buy

bread you can't do anything it's a disaster. at some point i think they're going to want to come back and then want to say hey can we do something. and i'm very simple i just don't want them to have nuclear weapons that's all is it too much to ask i don't want to have nuclear weapons i want to have a great economy i want them to sell so much oil so that the oil prices i'm not happy with opec i told them i'm not happy with opec we take care of all these people we defend them they wouldn't be there for two weeks of a wasn't for me and the united states and our much stronger armed forces that it was because our armed forces was depleted we had older quote now we have a you know better than anybody seven hundred billion and seven hundred sixteen billion we have the most incredible new jets and everything we need it not that i want to spend it although it is jobs it's all made in the united states but iran has to come back and they have to talk. and i'm not doing this from strength or

weakness i'm just saying at some point i think they're going to have to come back if you look at what's going on companies are leaving left and right. receive bends just lift the relief if they don't want to be in a room. because they have a choice do they want to be with iran or do they want to be with us and we have by we picked up ten trillion dollars since my election. we were being caught by china now it's going the other way people can't believe that people have never seen this situation with china everything's always been for twenty years old china is so great china is so great. you don't hear that so much anymore i love china i think they're great but you don't hear that so much anymore you know who's great now we're great now ok how about just a couple of them. now i could be doing i could be doing this all day long. i could be doing this all day long should we continue for a little while that doesn't matter to me. a couple of more i don't care new york

times come on new york times a failing new york times stand up go ahead. no i'm talking about the times is failing you are far from failing go hey but you know you're pointing to me that you might meet at times a very interesting the times. i think they're going to endorse me. i think that a.b.c. and fox i like fox i really do but i think a.b.c. c.b.s. n.b.c. the times they are they're all going to endorse me because if they don't they're going out of business can you imagine if you didn't have me go ahead what would you like to see sorry i know you're pointing to me but i work for p.b.s. news hour i know that i know i know that. so i want to ax you yesterday you were talking about your administration accomplishments at the united and a lot of the leaders laughed why do you think they were the steak dinner and all of that it was fake news and it was covered that way ok so i said that since my lection our economy has become the hottest in the world tax reductions regulations

confidence levels of the highest in eighteen years really soon to be historic unemployment is the lowest in the history of our country you look at black unemployment you look at asian unemployment you look at women sixty five years the unemployment numbers are among the best we've ever ever had. the numbers of new companies poor ng into our country which nobody thought was possible and i said this and i was in front of a large group of highly professional people most of whom are from either other countries or the united nations people that are and begin to clapping applauding smiling and i heard a little rustle as i said our country is now stronger than ever before it's true i mean it is true and i heard a little rustle and i said it's true and i heard smiles and i said oh i didn't know they'd be that they weren't laughing at me they were laughing with me we had fun

that was not laughing at me so the fake do said people left a president that in left me people had a good time with me we were doing it together we had a good time.
