Trump announces $500 billion 'Stargate' AI infrastructure project | LiveNOW from FOX

well thank you very much and it's an honor to be here today we have uh first full day as president we're back and we had a great first term but we're going to have an even better second term and I think we're going to do things that people will be shocked at we're U starting off with tremendous investment coming into our country at levels that nobody's really ever seen before and they're very uh happy with the fact that I won the race and that they feel confident in their Investments and it's big money and high quality people so my first day back from from uh having a nice life it's my honor to welcome three of the world's leading technology CEOs and in the case of Larry Larry Ellison it's well beyond technolog is sort of uh CEO of everything he's an amazing man and amazing uh business person but to announce the largest AI infrastructure project by far in history and it's all taking place right here in America as you know there's great competition for AI and other things and uh they're coming in at the highest level we're joined by Oracle executive chairman Larry Ellison soft Bank CEO my friend Masa Masa Yoshi son and CEO of open Ai and I would say the uh by far the leading expert based on everything I read Sam Alman so that's great that you're coming in together that's a massive group of talent and and money together these World leading technology Giants are announcing the formation of Stargate so put that name down in your books because I think you're going to hear a lot about about it in the future a new American company that will invest $500 billion doll at least in AI infrastructure in the United States and Mo and very very quickly moving very rapidly creating over 100,000 American jobs almost immediately this Monumental undertaking is a resounding Declaration of confidence in America's potential under a new president let me be a new president I didn't say it they did so I appreciate that fellas but it'll Ure the future of technology what we want to do is we want to keep it in this country China is a competitor and others are competitors we want we want it to be in this country and we're making it uh available uh I'm going to help uh a lot through emergency declarations because we have an emergency we have to get this stuff built so they have to produce a lot of electricity and we'll make it possible for them to get that production done very easily at their own plants if they want where they'll build uh at the plant the AI plant they'll build uh energy generation and that will be incredible but it's technology and artificial intelligence all made in the USA beginning immediately Stargate will be building the physical and virtual infrastructure to power the next generation of advancements in Ai and this will include the construction of colossal data centers very very massive structures I was in the real estate business these buildings these are big beautiful buildings they're going to employ a lot of people and physical campuses and locations currently being scouted Nationwide they're making their choices of locations I think they have their choice I'd like to ask Larry Sam and Masa to say a few words and just talk about a little bit about what they're doing and uh if you have any questions and then we'll go into a couple of other subjects also but this is to me a very big thing $500 billion uh Stargate project I think it's going to be something that's very special it'll lead to something that could be the biggest of all so um Larry maybe we'll start with you and we'll go down the line thank you sir thank you Mr President we certainly couldn't do this without you uh would it would simply be impossible uh AI holds incredible promise for all of us for every every American uh we've actually been been working with open AI for a while and with M mosa for a while the data centers are actually under construction as the first of them are under construction in Texas each building's a half a million square feet there are 10 buildings currently you currently being built but that will expand to 20 and other locations be Beyond uh the abalene location which is which is our first location the kind of applications that we're building to give you an idea maybe the most charismatic and the one that I think touches us all is uh uh electronic health records not just maintaining electronic health records but by looking at electronic health records understanding the condition of doctors better understanding the condition of their patients and being able to provide health care plans that are much better than the otherwise would be a doctor in Indian uh River reservation would be able to see how a doctor at Memorial Sloan ketering would would Tre treat the patient or a a doctor at at Stanford would uh would treat the patient we actually provide all of that information all of that guidance to the doctor the doctor we actually provide all of that information all of that guidance to the doctor the doctors who are treating cancer patients or or patients with any other kind of disease made possible by AI I'm not going to take a lot of time I'm going to I'm going to pass it to MSA but this is a very exciting program for Oracle to be a part of thank you oh thank you that would be helpful that's good that's great I feel tall now thank you well Mr President um last last month I came to um celebrate your winning and promise that we will invest $100 billion and you told me oh Masa go for 200 now I came back with 500 uh because because this is the as you say yesterday uh this is the beginning of Golden Age golden age of America this is one great example I think right we wouldn't have decided to do this I think so this is the beginning of golden age we wouldn't have decided unless you won and yesterday we agreed we signed to make this happen because of this day so uh we would uh make this happen we would immediately start deploying hundred billion dollar with a goal of making $500 billion do within next four years within your time right because of your success so we are very very excited to do this and uh um our partner is of course soft Bank openi Oracle and uh uh additionally investing partner with mgx uh on top of that we have the technology partner Nvidia and of course Microsoft has been very very supportive to Sam and continue to support uh all our success uh this is not just for business as R said this will help people's life this will help solving many many issues difficult things that otherwise we could not have solved with the power of AI I think uh uh Asia is coming very very soon and after that that's not the goal after after that artificial super intelligence will come to solve the issues that mankind would never ever have thought that we could solve well this is the beginning of our golden age thank you very much I don't have too much to add uh but I did want to say I'm thrilled we get to do this in the United States of America I think this will be the most important project of this era and as said for AGI to get built here to create hundreds of thousands of jobs to create a new industry centered here uh we wouldn't be able to do this without you Mr President uh and I'm thrilled that we get to I think it'll be uh an exciting project I think we'll be able to do all of the wonderful things that these guys talked about but the fact that we get to do this in the United States uh is is I think wonderful so thank you very much could you just say one word I I hear so many positive things about what it's going to do for medical research and for in things cancer and all the different problems how will AI help us with the fight against various problems diseases Etc these guys can maybe share more about some of the work they're doing there I think they'll jointly be some of the leaders about driving progress here but I I believe that as this technology progresses we will see diseases get cured at an unprecedented rate uh we will be amazed at how quickly we're curing this cancer and that one and heart disease uh and what the will do for the ability of to deliver very high quality healthare the costs but really to cure the diseases um at a rapid rapid rate I think will be among the most important things this technology does very good so we're currently working on do I step on this okay all right no no no I'm not I'm not that I'm not that tall I'm not that tall I'm not you look even better thank you Mr President uh one of the most exciting things we're working on you again using the tools that that that Sam and mosa are providing uh is our is a cancer vaccine it's very interesting early di turns out I'll be quick all of our cancers uh cancer tumors little fragments of those tumors float around in your blood so you can do early cancer detection if you can do using a you can do early cancer detection with a blood test uh and using AI to look at the blood test you can find the a can the cancers that are actually seriously threatening the person so we can again cancer cancer diagnosis using AI has the promise of just being a simple blood test then beyond that once we Gene sequence once we Gene sequence that cancer tumor you can then vaccinate the person design a vaccine for every individual person to vaccinate them against that cancer and you can make that vaccine the that mRNA vaccine you can make that robotically again using AI in about 48 hours so imagine early cancer detection the development of a cancer vaccine for the for your particular cancer aimed at you and have have that vaccine available in 48 hours this is the promise of AI and the promise of the future thanks question yeah just one second I we'll finish up but but uh you know these are highly respected guys I was shocked with Larry because I don't even think Larry does this stuff he did a very good job for a guy that doesn't do it much right but he's so respected and the group and it's it's really an honor but uh uh for Larry to be here and do this is very unusual because he doesn't do this stuff he doesn't need it he does and you don't need it do you H you don't need it but I I just I think it's an honor to the uh to the country it's a great honor that this group were these are the top people that they uh they're going to do it and they're going to do it here and we're going to make it as easy as it can be a $500 million Stargate project comes in aition to a separate pledge between1 and20 billion doll from as we know from Masa that we talked about before also 20 billion from the MAAC which was great and we have many others that are coming some I just say just announc it it's easier but with some I know them and and they're so highly respected I'd rather do it this way many would like to do it this way but we're letting the world know what's happening uh this is money that normally would have gone to China or other countries but in particular China in total before the end of my first full business day in Washington and uh the White House we've already secured nearly uh3 trillion dollar of new investments in the United States and probably that's going to be six or seven by the end of the week tremendous amounts of money are coming in for uh for many things other than even ai ai seems to be very hot it seems to be the thing that a lot of smart people are looking at very strongly and our country will be prospering like never before I think that's true and it's going to be the Golden Age of America I say yesterday we had the most ambition ambitious action oriented day of any Administration in history know there's never been a first day like yesterday as you know I signed a sweeping slate of executive orders to stop the invasion of our borders I launched a government-wide effort to defeat inflation and bring down the cost of daily life and bring down the cost of energy magnificently bring it down and when an energy comes down Larry I'd say generally speaking when energy comes down everything else comes down the prices of food and the prices of everything else come down energy is the big that's the big baby and we declared a national Energy emergency to drill baby drill our term that we use we're going to drill baby drill like never before we ended Destro structive Dei mandates across the federal government and return to our country to a merit-based system and a common sense system as you know the Supreme Court gave us a decision on Merit where things in this country can be based on Merit now instead of a lot of different rules regulations and things that really put our country at a big disadvantage we permanently stopped government censorship and restored free speech that was signed yesterday we were renamed the Gulf of Mex Meo the Gulf of America sounds so beautiful the Gulf of America and returned the name of a great President William McKinley to Mount McKinley they took off the name and he was actually a great president he uh was a very very successful businessman he ran for governor of Ohio he won and did a great job as Governor ran for president anyone he was assassinated ultimately in his second term unfortunate but uh he was the Tariff King and he uh I don't think he was as bad as I am I'm I think I believe in him even more than him but he believed in him very strongly and he raised massive amounts of money our country was at its at its riches from from 1870 to 1913 we had the most that was when we were the richest relatively speaking we were the richest during that period of time that was tariffs from other countries and our administration's moving with unprecedented urgency and speed to confront every single crisis facing us and we'll get the job done and again I want to thank Sam and MSA and Larry for being here it's an honor to have them and we'll take a few questions if you want orders you would agree that it's never acceptable to assault a police officer right so then if I can among those you pardon DJ Rodriguez he drove a stuned gun into the neck of a DC police officer who was abducted by the mob that day he later confessed on video to the FBI and pleaded guilty for his crimes why does he deserve a pardon well I don't know was it a pardon because we're looking at commutes and we're looking at pardons okay well we'll take a look at everything but I can say this murderers today are not even charged you have murderers that aren't charged all over you take a look at what's going on in Philadelphia take a look at what's going off in La where people murder people and they don't get charged these people have already served years in prison and uh and they've served him viciously it's a disgusting prison it's been horrible it's inhumane it's been a a terrible terrible thing I also say this you go to Portland where they did where they wrapped police officers shot police officers nothing happened to anybody you go to Seattle where they took over a big chunk of the city and people died Portland a lot of people died wait a minute and you go also take a look at uh Minneapolis because I was there and I watched it if I didn't bring in the National Guard that City wouldn't even exist today people were killed and nobody went to jail so these people have already served a long period of time and I made a decision to give a pardon Joe Biden gave a pardon yesterday to a lot of criminals these are criminals that he gave a pardon to and you should be asking that question why did he give a pardon to all of these people that committed crimes why did he give a pardon to the uh j6 unselect committee when they burned and destroyed all documents which showed that they did what was wrong not me wait a minute wait a minute why did they give a pardon to all of his relatives his brother who made millions of dollars to all these different people he gave pardons that's the question you should be answering all right go ahead y please follow really no no ask said tell us at your meeting with speaker Johnson Senator th did you reach any conclusion on this one big pretty much I think we have a good situation now it's been in some ways made simpler by Los Angeles because they're going to need a lot of money and generally speaking I think you find that a lot of Democrats are going to be asking for help so I think maybe that makes it uh more one-sided I think we're going to do very well look we we're going to take care of Los Angeles I'm going there I'm going to North Carolina which has been abandoned by the Democrats and I'm going to North Carolina very importantly first I'll be there on Friday and then I'm going from there to Los Angeles uh and then I'm going to Nevada and I'm really going to Nevada to thank them for the vote because we won Nevada overwhelmingly and that's usually a Democrat vote and I just want to go there to thank the people of Nevada for the big for the big vote so we'll be making that yeah please Mr President um the leaders of The Proud boys and the oathkeepers were were free following their pardons yesterday um at the at the time back in 2021 you urged them to stand back and stand by is there now a place for them in the political conversation well we have to say they've been given a Parton I thought their sentences were ridiculous and excessive uh one of the guys took down a flag that was an anti-American flag and he was given years in jail I don't know the exact number but he was given many years in jail I thought it was very excessive and uh and at least the cases that we looked at these were people that actually love our country so we thought a Parton would be appropriate yeah Mr President is it is it also true in your conversations with Republicans today that you asked them to consider recess appointments for for cabinet officials I think yeah if they if it's needed I don't think it's going to be needed uh Marco as you know got passed uh overwhelmingly with 99 to nothing which is pretty amazing Marco Marco is going to do a great job Secretary of State but he just got I guess he was the first one and just got approved that's some vote 99 to nothing and the uh the the nothing was a vote that he would have gotten if we wanted to do it but you know whose vote that was who's doing a great job right now is Vice President you also talk about some sort of a trade or or a deal involving uh Wildfire relief in in extension for death well what I'm what I really want to have done I was talking about this with the guys back back in the YoVille office um Los Angeles has massive amounts of water available to it all they have to do is turn the valve and that's the valve coming back from and down from the Pacific Northwest where millions of uh gallons of water a week and a day even in many cases uh pours into California goes all through California down to Los Angeles and they turned it off it's off now the Val goes it turns toward the Pacific Ocean and all that water goes pouring into the Pacific Ocean if they did what I told them to do they wouldn't do it because politically they didn't think it was good I think it was I think it's great politically I think they're dead politically what they've done they've destroyed the city what they've done to that city is unbelievable the sprinklers they sprinklers in there like these right here that you see none of them had any water in them they didn't have any water the fire hydrants 40% of them had no water uh the brush was soak was just dry everything was dry the sprinklers on the lawn weren't allowed to even be used so you know everything was dry and it was uh an inferno they created an inferno so we're demanding that they turn the valve back toward Los Angeles right now it's not even believable that they haven't done it just so you know they have a valve and it turns like think of a sink but multiply it times many thousands of times the size of it it's massive and you turn it back toward Los Angeles why aren't they doing it they either have a Death Wish they're stupid or there's something else going on that we don't understand but we want the water that they're throwing away to be used for California and that includes the farmers of California you know when you drive up north you see all of the land I couldn't believe it I was with Deon Nunes when he was a congressman and some other congressman from the area and were driving up and were we in the highway and I keep looking at these farms and the land is bone dry and then you'd see an acre about an acre or two acres with the most beautiful green uh plants growing in it the most beautiful you've ever it's a rich stuff and you look at the soil and it's so rich that soil is almost the equivalent to like Iowa soil it's phenomenal it's got no water but the reason it has no water I said Do you have a drought no I said what do you mean you don't have a drought look at the thing it's dry as a bone the reason you have like an acre is because they say you can you can Farm one acre but no more because they didn't want to waste water but they throw the water into the Pacific Ocean these people are crazy so we're going to be issuing an executive order demanding that they immediately let that water come down to through California Farmers even people living in Beverly Hills now those people have been a lot I I me a lot of them are wiped out believe it or not you know they were having restrictions uh Larry you know about this they wanted to restrict you to 38 gallons of water a day that sounds like a lot but it's not when you're a rich person and you like to take a shower 38 38 gallons doesn't last very long and they have all this water and it's really good water up high Pacific Northwest some comes in from Canada a nice country by the way comes in from from Canada and it comes all the way through California and they're restricting it you even have the half pipes you know the half pipes the cut Pipes big ones bigger than this room and they going all the way down and they're bone dry and they could be loaded up with water no but isn't it isn't it incredible that they don't do it and it's to protect the Delta smelt it's a fish that's that's doing poorly anyway but I said how are you protecting the Delta smelt by not giving it water it's a fish needs water nobody can answer that question let me do this first are you open to Elon Tik Tok say are you open to Elon buying Tik Tok I would be if he wanted to buy it yeah on your inauguration on your ination I'd Like Larry to buy it too I have the right to make a deal so the deal I'm thinking about Larry let's negotiate in front of the media the deal I think is this uh and I've met with owners of Tik Tok the big owners it's worthless if it doesn't get a permit it's not like oh you can take the us the whole thing is worthless with a permit it's worth like a trillion dollars so what I'm thinking about saying to somebody is buy it and give half to the United States of America half and we'll give you the permit and they'll have a great partner the United States and they'll have something that's actually more valuable because they have the ultimate partner and the United States will make it very worthwhile for them in terms of the permits and everything else but so think of it you have an asset that has no value or has a trillion dollar value it all depends on whether or not the United States gives the permit so what I'm saying is let the United States give the permit and the United States should get half sounds reasonable what do you think sounds like a good deal to me Mr President yeah he can he can afford it too Mr President you're a president who was long said that you B the blue but aren't you sending the message that assaulting officers is okay with these parties no the opposite in fact um I'm going to be letting two officers uh from Washington police DC uh I believe they're from DC but I just approved it uh they were um arrested put in jail for five years because they went after an illegal and I guess something happened where something went wrong and they arrested the two officers and put them in jail for going after a criminal a rough Criminal by the way and I'm actually releasing no I'm the friend of I am the friend of police more than any president that's ever been in this office 400 of the people that you pardon though assaulted officers so I want to ask you about the vice president JD Vance he said if this is a week ago he said if you committed violence on January 6th obviously you should not be pardoned why is your vice president wrong well only for one reason uh they've been they've served years in jail they should not have served excuse me and they've served years in jail and murderers don't even go to jail in this country and we had 1500 we have 16 under review as you know we commuted about 16 of them because it looks like they could have done things that were uh not acceptable for a full pardon but these people have served years of jail and their lives have been ruined and in many and in many Cas listen to me for a second stop stop interrupting uh they served years in jail and uh if you look at the American public the American public is tired of it take a look at the election uh just look at the numbers on the election we won this election in a landslide because the American public is tired of people like you that are just one-sided horrible people in terms of crime you don't talk about all the people that have been killed and what happens to those murderers murderers get no time you take a look at some of these Das they go after political opponents but they don't go after people that shoot people in the street uh they're caught they know where they're living they know everything they don't even go up to pick them up anymore they just let them live there they know all about it they have their pictures they have the tape of the shooting and they don't even go up and and you're talking about this no we uh we pardoned people that were treated unbelievably well poorly in the history of our country there's never anything take place like this they're still looking for them but they're not looking for the murderers the people that are killing everybody we are though and we're getting them out of the country we just started that we're getting them out of the country and they're going to be gotten out of the country for us they came in illegally from jails and from prisons they killed many people some of them killed many people about 50% of them killed more than one person they were released into our country that's what we're focused on not the kind of nonsense you're talking about a CE you've called for a ceasefire in Ukraine if Vladimir Putin doesn't come to the table to negotiate with you will you put additional sanctions on Russia it sounds likely and do you think that the war should be frozen currently along the war should have never started if you had a competent president which you didn't the war wouldn't have happened the war in Ukraine would have never happened if I were president but that couldn't happen because the election was rigged yeah go ahead president um there's been some debate within your orbit over whether or not to keep or H1B visas what's your position on that do you want to keep h-1bs or do you want to get I like I like both sides of the argument but I I also like very competent people coming into our country even if that involves them training and helping other people that may not have the qualifications they do but I don't want to stop and I'm not just talking about engineers I'm talking about people at all levels we want competent people coming into our country and hb1 I know the program very well I use the program uh atries wine you know uh experts uh even waiters high quality waiters you you got to get the best people now then you go into people like Larry and he needs engineers and Masa needs and this gentleman needs Engineers like nobody's ever needed Engineers right so we have to have the quality people coming in now uh by doing that we're expanding businesses and that takes care of everybody so I'm sort of on both sides of the argument but what I really do feel is that we have to let really competent people great people come into our country and we do that through the H1 program Mr President are you looking to impose tariffs on Canada and Mexico in an effort to force negotiations sooner on usmca no it's really um not on us it has nothing to do with that uh they've allowed both of them in Canada very much so uh they've allowed millions and millions of people to come into country that shouldn't be here they could have stopped them and they didn't and they've killed 300,000 people last year my opinion uh have been have been destroyed by drugs by fentol the fentol coming through Canada is massive the fentanyl coming through Mexico is massive and people are getting killed and families are being destroyed I mean the sun gets killed and the family is a basket case for the rest of their lives I mean I've seen mothers that thought they heal they never heal they say it gets worse with time it gets worse with time they lose their boy they lose their baby they lose their their young daughter to fentol poisoning and I had that talk with President XI the other day too of China I said we don't want that crap in our country we got to stop it I would have stopped it I had a deal with him where he was going to uh give the maximum penalty which in China is the death penalty for drug dealing and he was all said he was going to give the maximum penalty to fentanyl dealers if they send to the United States they were going to get the death penalty and of course Biden didn't pick that up I had that deal all done it was all wrapped up we were going to have it done and then the election uh went let's put it nicely didn't go the proper way I'm doing I'm trying to be nice about it it was rigged and we had an incompetent president elected and he never followed up on that deal but he should have followed up because if they got the death penalty they wouldn't be sending fentol to Mexico Canada and other places how much we're thinking about that too we're talking about a uh a tariff of 10% on China based on the fact that they're sending fentanyl to Mexico and Canada how soon on those tariffs uh probably February 1 is the date we're looking at for for Mexico and China we're talking about approximately uh approximately 25% you have an update on the Gaza ceasefire and are you planning to travel to the Middle East soon we're thinking about going to the Middle East not yet uh we have a a thing called the hostages are coming back going on right now and they are coming back uh some of them have been very you know very damaged you look at the young lady with her hand practically blown off uh you know how that happened right did you know how that Happ but when you find out you're not going to be too happy because it was terrible but uh the hostages are starting to come back oh if I if I weren't here they wouldn't be back ever they would have never come back they would have all died if this were done a year earlier if the if Biden would have done this deal a year and a half two years ago or frankly it should have never happened October 7th should have never happened no nobody should be dead but through weakness they allowed it to happen and then it was a disaster from them but you go back just six months ago many of these young people were living you know young people don't die like that they're just dying and uh young people aren't dying at 22 and 23 years old they don't die but now they're dying and you wonder why they're dying they're being killed and they have been killed but they say six months ago you would have had 11 more living hostages think of that 6 months ago but Biden couldn't get it done and it was only the the imposition by that I put on it as a deadline they got it done but it's uh it's a very sad situation should have it should have never happened I'll tell you two things should have never happened three things inflation should have never happened it would have never happened except for what they did to energy and their crazy spending and Ukraine would have never happened Never by the way Russia never would have gone into Ukraine I had a very strong understanding with Putin that would have never ever happened he he disrespected Biden Biden very simple he disrespects people he's smart he understands he disrespected Biden and uh also uh the Middle East would have never happened because Iran was broke they had no money they had no money for Hamas they had no money for Hezbollah it would have never happened October 7th would have never happened but it did happen so this is the cards I've been given and uh we're getting the hostages back that would have never happened under Biden they would have never come back they were just dying very not that slow they were dying or being killed but that was what was happening going to keep sending weapons to Ukraine or are you going to send turn off the tap soon well we're looking at that we're talking to zalinski we're going to be talking with President Putin very soon and we'll see what how it all happens we're going to look at it very one thing I do feel the European Union should be paying a lot more than they're paying because under Biden I mean we're in there for $200 billion more now it affects them more than it affects us we have an ocean in between right little thing called an ocean uh the European Union should equalize we're in there for $200 billion dollar more than the European Union I mean what are we stupid I guess the answer is yes because they must they must think so but the European Union takes advantage of us tremendously on trade and they now take advantage of and and always have if I didn't get involved years ago my first term one of the first things I noticed was that they're not paying enough they're not paying and a lot of those countries weren't even paying the NATO countries they weren't paying only seven out of 28 were paying we were one of them and Poland was one and they had a few of them that were paying and some were paying very proudly usually the closer to the borderline of Russia they were the faster they paid okay the ones that were further away tended not to pay so fast and one thing on that I think they should lift their number not to 2% but to 5% NATO should be at 5% not at 2% 2% is ridiculous yeah did you ask president XI in your conversation about Ukraine you asked him to get involved helping settle that can you tell us about that I did yeah I said you had to get it settled because he's not done very much on that he's got a lot of a lot of power like we have a lot of power I said you ought to get it settled we did discuss it yeah you intend to continue selling products that benefit yourself personally while you're president well I don't know if it benefited I don't know how where it is I don't know much about it other than I launched it I heard it was very successful I haven't checked it where is it today you made a lot of money Ser how much several billion dollars it seems like in the last several days several billion that's peanuts for these guys the can you give us some sense broadly yeah he wrote me a nice letter I mean I did open it last night and uh I didn't know Peter said did you get the letter I said wait a minute let's say the letter sort of a tradition you put it in the draw especially of the beautiful Resolute desk right and I opened the and there it was said to number 47 and it was a very nice letter I mean I could show it because I think it was a nice letter maybe I will I think what you say terms just basically uh it was a a little bit of uh an inspiration type letter you know enjoy it do a good job uh important very important how important the job is but I may uh I think it it was a nice letter I think I should let people see it because it was a positive for him in writing it I appreciated the letter Mr President uh were security concerns at all Factor when deciding to move your an operation indoors no not at all no not at all it was just cold look if we would have you know I just went out to the helicopter right to to uh we said goodbye that's a tradition as long as helicop before it used to be a stage coach and then helicopters came along but that's been a tradition you go out and you do that and we stood there for 10 minutes and I'll tell you what people would not have been able to get through that day that was cold it was sort of interesting don't let the sun fool you tell me something sunny days can get very cold can't they because that was so freezing yesterday you couldn't have gotten through it it would have been and the answer is no not it wasn't security with that being said I thought the capital the Rotunda was beautiful 72 degrees unbelievable sound you know the it's like being in an opera house uh I could see people wanting to do it there rather than outside why did you remove John Bolton's security clearance sir was uh I think that was enough time it's uh we take a job uh you take a job you want to do a job we're not going to have Security on people for the rest of their lives why should we I thought he was I thought he was a very dumb person but I used him well because every time people saw me come into a meeting with John Bolton standing behind me they thought that he'd attack them because he was a warmonger he's the one that got us involved along with Cheney and a couple of others convinced Bush which was a terrible decision to blow up the Middle East you know we blew up the Middle East and we left we got nothing out of it except a lot of death we killed a lot of people and John Bolton was you know one of those guys a stupid guy but no you can't have that for life you shouldn't expect it for life mentioned with President zalinski will that take place here and when and where will you meet with I don't know I mean look president zalinski would like to have peace he's told me that very strongly he'd like to have peace but it takes two to tango we'll see what happens will President Putin anytime they want I'll meet I'd like to see that end millions of people are being killed and that being killed it's a vicious situation and they're now largely soldiers a lot of people's people have been killed in the cities they look like demolition sites buildings massive buildings bombed and coming down the thing with Ukraine is that many more people died than you're reporting you're not reporting the real numbers and I'm not blaming you for that I'm blaming I'm blaming maybe our government for not wanting to release those numbers many more people died than what you know about when those big buildings come down and they say two people were injured no no many people thousands of people are being killed but the people the real killing now is on the warfront it's a very flat land and the only thing that stops a bullet is somebody's body and you have young soldiers so Russia's lost about 800,000 soldiers now Ukraine's lost about 600 or 700,000 I think the numbers are low that they're giving out and but they've lost massive numbers of young soldiers and that war should stop it's very flat you know it's beautiful farmland and it's flat and really beautiful in a different kind of way but they don't have any protection the only thing that stops a bullet is a body and those bodies are stopping a lot of bullets and they're getting they're being decimated both sides your conversation with President G what did you tell him in terms of when to expect tariffs and what can he do to avoid about which one about tariffs we didn't talk too much about tariffs other than he he knows where I stand look I put uh large tariffs on China I've taken in hundreds of billions of dollars uh until I was President China never paid not 10 cents to the United States with me they paid hundreds of $600 billion dollar or so or more more than that even of tariffs and if I didn't do that you wouldn't have a steel mill open in the United States right now you wouldn't have one steel mill open in the United States so what I did is I saved the steel industry I saved other Industries too with other tariffs um other other countries are are big abusers also you know it's not just China China's an abuser but uh the European Union is is very very bad to us they treat us very very bad badly they don't take our cars they don't take our cars at all they don't take our farm products essentially they don't take very much we have a $350 billion deficit with the European Union they treat us very very badly so they're going to be in in for tariffs it's the only way you're going to get back it's the only way you're going to get fairness you can't get fairness unless you do that but the European Union's treated us very badly but essentially everybody treats us badly you know everybody treats us badly yes go ahead because we allow them to because we've had stupid people doing this and we can't have I want to have I'd like to have these three people negotiate for us just for one week and would be a rich country again but we'll be rich Mr President um on AI data centers will you resend President Biden's executive order that opens up federal land on which centers on data centers will you resend President Biden's executive order uh that opens up federal lands for data centers and energy production no I wouldn't do that that sounds to me like it's something that I would like I'd like to see Federal lands opened up for data centers I think they're going to be very important again we have a lot of competition for that so it's an honor to have these three great people great great uh CEOs and and great Geniuses all three uh it's an honor that they want to come to our country but we're going to make it as easy as we can for them because other countries want them to I'm going to have to go now thank you all very much thank you question do you have on your phone I think I'll get it right now by the way again we won the young vote I think I wanted through Tik Tok so I have a warm spot in my heart for Tik Tock okay thank you thank you thank you Mr President
