A potpourri of Trump and his hilarious comments in his news conference news conference. He starts off on a serious note.  Latest that I heard was that he is right, it wasn’t ours. Enjoy. Rh

I haven’t seen it, and I will say that the Tomahawk—one of the most powerful weapons around—is used by, you know, sold to and used by other countries.

And whether it’s Iran, which also has some Tomahawks—I wish they had more—or whether it’s Iran or somebody else, the fact is that a Tomahawk is very generic. 

It’s sold to other countries. But that’s being investigated right now.

The hardest thing is to go to Dover because Dover is where, for the most part, a lot of the fallen—the warriors, the great young people who have died in war—seem to mostly go.

Trump on Iran:

Together with our Israeli partners, we’re crushing the enemy in an overwhelming display of technical skill and military force.

Iran’s drone and missile capability is being utterly demolished. Their navy is gone. It’s all lying at the bottom of the ocean—46 ships. Can you believe it?

In fact, I got a little upset with our people. I said, “What quality ship was that? Was it top of the line?” I asked, “Why did we not just capture the ship? We’re going to use it. Why did we sink it?”

He said it’s more fun to sink it. That’s what they said. They like sinking them better. They say it’s safer to sink them. I guess it’s probably true.

Their terrorist leaders are gone, or they’re counting down the minutes until they are gone. Think of it—we had leaders, and now they’re gone.

We had new leaders in their place. And now nobody has any idea who the people are who are going to be the head of the country. 

We will not relent until the enemy is totally and decisively defeated.

We’ve already won in many ways, but we haven’t won enough.

We go forward more determined than ever to achieve ultimate victory that will end this long-running danger once and for all.

If we didn’t do that B-2 attack, Israel would have been wiped out.

Trump on America

The United States of America is the greatest and most exceptional nation in human history, and we will not be threatened by evil terrorists and lunatics any longer.

Trump randomly decides to mock Macron again:

I called the countries up. I called up France. I said, “Emmanuel, you have to cut your… your good friends from America a reasonable deal. What’s happening is you are paying a tiny fraction for drugs as we…” “No, no, Donald, I cannot do anything about that.” I said, “Yes, you can. You can.” He said, “No, no, I will not do it. I will not do it.”

Because he’d have to raise his pill from 10 dollars to 20, and maybe even 30. Ours would come down from 130 dollars down to 20 dollars. Think of that—from 130, that’s what you’re gonna get—from 130 to 20. But he has to double his price from 10 dollars. And they were the boss. I said, “No, no, you will.” “No, Donald, Donald, I cannot do that.”

And I heard this from all the other countries, too. Very elegant people. And they were saying, “No, no, no, we cannot do this. We will not do this.” I said, “Yes, you will, 100%.” “No, no, we will not.” Because, you know, they have to double up their price.

And I said, “Well, here’s the story. If you don’t do it, I’m going to put, in the case of Emmanuel,” I said, “a 100% tariff on all wines and champagnes coming into the United States.” “No, no, Donald! You cannot do that!” I said, “I’ve already got the legislation, it’s right in front of my desk, I’m gonna sign it!”

“Emmanuel,” he said, “Donald, I will agree to this.” So he agreed. Everybody agreed.
