💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Why are you fighting with the pope?

Trump: I have to do what's right. I have nothing against the pope.

Reporter: Why are you fighting with him?

Trump: I’m not fighting with him. The pope made a statement saying Iran can have a nuclear weapon.

Reporter: He didn’t say that.

Trump: I can disagree with the pope.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I am all about the gospel, I am about is as much as anybody can be.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I will certainly visit Lebanon at the right time.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: The First Lady came out last week and said she had no links with Epstein.

Trump: Who?

Reporter: The First Lady.

Trump: She had none.

Reporter: Why did she say that?

Trump: Because the fake news said she did. She had none. I think that’s been proven. It bothered her that the fake news was being fake news.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

We have a very good relationship with Iran right now.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Are you going to make the Arab countries pay?

Trump: I think they are going to make that contribution.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I would go to Pakistan, yeah. Pakistan has been great, they've been so good.

Islamabad—I’ll be—I might go, yeah, I might go. If the deal is signed in Islamabad, I might go.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Israel and Lebanon tried to make peace before, what is the difference this time?

Trump: The difference is me—big difference.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I am not happy with Australia because they were not there for us at the Hormuz Strait.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

When we asked NATO allies to get involved in a very minor skirmish by comparison to what it could be, they weren't there, so I don't think they would be there for a large skirmish.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Europeans should be buying more oil and gas from us.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

The blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is very routine for us.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Iran is going to execute four more protesters, including the first woman protester. What do you tell Iran?

Trump: Tell that to the Pope.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I think we have a very successful negotiation going on right now...

That'll give us free oil, free Hormuz Strait. Everything will be nice.

💬 🇺🇸 Reporter: Scientists with access to classified stuff, nuclear materials, aerospace—they've gone missing or turned up dead in the last couple months. What's happening?

Trump: I hope it's random. We are going to know in the next week and a half. Pretty serious stuff. Hopefully coincidence.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

Who’s dumber, Tucker Carlson or Joe Kent? It’s very interesting! I met Joe Kent at Dover Air Force Base, along with numerous others who had lost their loved ones in War. I said hello to all of the families. Kent, horribly, lost his wife. Her casket was being brought to Dover, along with the rest, although he married again, quite quickly, in my opinion. In any event, a number of years later, I noticed the same person was running for Congress in Washington State, and lost. I then noticed a couple of years later, he was running again, and lost. While I didn’t know him other than our brief Dover encounter, but feeling sorry for him after the two Election losses, I told my people, “Hire him for the White House. Give him a job, make him feel good, he lost his wife and two Elections.” They did so and, while I rarely saw him, I certainly didn’t expect disloyalty, but that’s what I got. He was really a SLEAZEBAG, and some would say, on top of it all, A LEAKER! I don’t know whether or not that was true, but next time, NO MORE MR. NICE GUY! Kent is a LOSER, just like Tucker, Candace, Megyn, and the rest of them are LOSERS — You’re born that way, LOW IQ, and there’s not a damn thing they’re going to be able to do about it!

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

I hope Hezbollah acts nicely and well during this important period of time.

It will be an GREAT moment for them if they do. No more killing. Must finally have PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

💬 🇺🇸 Trump:

A year ago, our country was an embarrassment, and all over the world, they laughed at us.

They're not laughing anymore.
