| Good morning. | ||
| Officials here at the highest levels don't want the people all around the world watching what's happening here today to to be confused about what's happening here today? | ||
| They insist that Zelenskyy is not bringing along all these European leaders to help him talk Trump out of forcing a bad deal down his throat to end the war. | ||
| On the contrary, officials here say that they invited these world leaders, White House officials invited these world leaders, so they could get a readout from the guy that just talked to Putin. | ||
| This is such a stupid media narrative that they're coming here tomorrow because Trump is going to bully Zelenskyy into a bad deal. | ||
| We've been working with these people for weeks, for weeks on this stuff. | ||
| They're coming here tomorrow because they chose to come here tomorrow. | ||
| We invited them to come. | ||
| We invited them to come. | ||
| The president invited them. | ||
| The latest window into the president's thinking via Truth Social, President Zelensky of Ukraine can end the war with Russia almost immediately if he wants to, or he can continue to fight. | ||
| Remember how it started? | ||
| No getting back Obama given Crimea 12 years ago without a shot being fired, and no going into NATO by Ukraine. | ||
| Some things never change. | ||
| But just because President Trump appears there to favor Ukraine giving up some territory does not mean that he is trying to leave them vulnerable to another invasion. | ||
| Those security guarantees they want are being lined up. | ||
| It means that the United States is potentially prepared to be able to give Article 5 security guarantees, but not from NATO, directly from the United States and other European countries. | ||
| That is big, I mean really big. | ||
| It is very uncommon to see so many heads of state in one place, unless you're at a summit, some place in the world that the host country has spent months preparing. | ||
| This one was set up starting on Saturday. | ||
|

|
Please, sir. | |
| I want some more. | ||
| What? | ||
| Please, sir. | ||
| I want some... | ||
| More? | ||
| More? | ||
| Snack him! | ||
| Hold him! | ||
| Skull him! | ||
| Hold him! | ||
| Brunch him! | ||
| Pick him up and bounce him! | ||
| Oh my goodness. | ||
| Just brilliant words from our meme maker Jerry right there. | ||
| Can I please have some more? | ||
| Has that little fellow ever asked for, ever said thank you after America helped him? | ||
| We'll see. | ||
| I'm I almost said I'm Benny Johnson. | ||
| I'm Danny Dervina. | ||
| I'm replacing Benny Johnson who has some family obligations today. | ||
| So we are doing our best here to hold up the fort because we're not going to miss a second as we take this historic moment live. | ||
| We have a live shot of the White House. | ||
| Let's pull that right up and let's take a look at what it's looking like right now. | ||
| So this is the White House stakeout location. | ||
| This is where a lot of reporters will, you know, sort of stand outside, awaiting the arrival of a foreign dignitary or anything, anything like that. | ||
| So right now we are awaiting the arrival of President Zelensky of Ukraine to the White House for a very historic day. | ||
| We'll see if President Trump achieves peace today. | ||
| This would be a monumental moment for the MAGA doctrine and for the world order in terms of restoring peace. | ||
| So what we have ahead of us is a pretty, pretty big day. | ||
| And that's why we went live because we were not going to miss a moment of it. | ||
| So there you can see the Marines standing outside. | ||
| This is the west wing of the White House just to give you a little layout of what of what, of where this is in the White House. | ||
| The Oval Office is not too far from those doors you're looking at right there. | ||
| Again, any moment now, we're expecting President Zelenskyy to walk in. | ||
| Of course, President Trump, this comes after his very historic summit last week in Alaska with President Putin of Russia. | ||
| And, oh man, this could be, this could really come together right now and culminate in world peace, which would, again. | ||
| would again be a massive, massive victory for President Trump's peace agenda across the world. | ||
| We have a very interesting clip, I believe, of Putin saying just last week, he would never have invaded Ukraine had President Trump been in office. | ||
| We're going to load that up for you because it's just so, it's so critical to sort of lay out what's going on today. | ||
| So, I mean, this is a wild thing, right? | ||
| We should all be cheering for peace across the world stage. | ||
| And what you saw last week were a bunch of rabid reporters like basically cheering against this. | ||
| We're hearing against this monumental peace summit that President Trump was able to put together in basically like a week's timing in Alaska on our own territory in our Air Force base. | ||
| And what President Trump was able to do is bring these nations to the table. | ||
| So we saw a couple months ago, a couple, yeah, a couple months ago, we saw Zelensky in the White House. | ||
| We all know how that went down. | ||
| We'll play that back for you later because it's a good one. | ||
| It's one where many of President Trump's most iconic moments of this second term have come from. | ||
| Many of his most iconic memes came from that Oval Office meeting with President Zelensky. | ||
| So we'll play that for you in a bit. | ||
| But what we have right here. | ||
| is President is Putin saying that he would never have invaded Ukraine had President Trump been in office. | ||
| And this goes to show the importance of having a strong American president in the White House. | ||
| And oh man, what a change it's been from Joe Biden in the past few years. | ||
| Let's play this one and you can take a look for yourself. | ||
| I remind you that in 2022, during the last contact with the previous administration, I tried to convince my previous American colleague that the situation should not be brought to the point of no return when it would come to hostilities. | ||
| And I said it quite directly back then, that is a big mistake. | ||
| Today, when President Trump is saying that if he was the president back then, there will be no war, and I am quite sure that it would indeed be so, I can confirm that. | ||
| I think that overall, me and President Trump have built a very good, business-like and trustworthy contact. | ||
| And I have every reason to believe that moving down this path, we can come, and the sooner the better, to the end of the conflict in Ukraine. | ||
| In his own words, right there, it goes to show the power of this president. | ||
| We have seen him negotiate peace time after time in America. | ||
| And, oh man, we might have a special treat for you coming up. | ||
| But this, this could be a very historic day for President Trump. | ||
| Again, we're out here waiting President Zelensky in the White House. | ||
| This is the West Wing. | ||
| So any moment you'll see, of course, Zelensky approach those doors and maybe we'll see President Trump there. | ||
| The big thing that's taking over the betting markets right now is will President Zelensky wear a suit to meet President Trump in the White House? | ||
| We saw what happened last time when we tried it. | ||
| And, oh boy, here we go.. | ||
| We've got Benny, the man himself. | ||
| He is joining us live. | ||
| How are you, Benny? | ||
|
unidentified
|
What's up, guys? | |
| All right, how's the connection? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good. | |
| It's good. | ||
| Solid on my end. | ||
| All right, so what's happened? | ||
| I'm pretty furious because I saw Zelensky, by the way, everyone, I'm on vacation with my family. | ||
| We're up in the panhandle right now, but I'm not going to miss this. | ||
| I was like, watch, I was like, I want to watch it. | ||
| And two of the kids are napping right now. | ||
| So I'm like, I'm going to break off and like jump in. | ||
| I'm like, too curious to see. | ||
| I saw Zelensky wearing the same thing the same fit that i wear every single day i wear this every single day and zelensky zelensky's at the white house wearing the same damn thing i should sue him i can see this i think yeah yes that's right i like he's bringing well like he's selling the good name of the black t-shirt. | ||
| So anyway, we're going to all watch this together. | ||
| Like we said, we've said it a couple times on the program, but I'm going to be, we're going to be covering live some major events, but the show is going to be off. | ||
| The show is going to be off. | ||
| The regular stream is going to be off this week. | ||
| So I'm just announcing it again. | ||
| I think we should probably announce it and pin it, but the regular streaming show is going to be off this weekend. | ||
| We sure can pick them. | ||
| It's like, you know, you assume that at the end of August there'd be nothing, but this is the Trump era. | ||
| So here it is. | ||
| Zelenskyy swagger jacking, my style. | ||
| Very angry. | ||
| What's up, Danny? | ||
| What's going on? | ||
| Man, it's been an interesting day. | ||
| This was just hours ago. | ||
| We were seeing him sort of prepare for his show in the White House. | ||
| So this is at a hotel a couple blocks away. | ||
| I think it might be the Willard. | ||
| I'm not totally sure about that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, yeah. | |
| So he could show up with a suit. | ||
| He could still show up with a suit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| That's what we're holding out hope. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| See the shot. | ||
| He hasn't shown up yet though. | ||
| No. | ||
| You can see the marines kind of staked out there. | ||
| Reporters seem like they're ravenously ready to, you know, see. | ||
| Has every other leader shown up? | ||
| Has every other leader shown up? | ||
| We do have a leader? | ||
| Do we have a council? | ||
| Yeah, all the leaders, yeah, it seems from the top top top from the EU. | ||
| They just swapped out the flag. | ||
| They didn't have both flags out there. | ||
| They just swapped out the flag to the Ukrainian flag like ten minutes ago. | ||
| And the ETA was one PM for Zelensky. | ||
| So it should be pretty imminent. | ||
| But they had just put that flag out like ten minutes ago. | ||
| He's late. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have any. | |
| He's a president Trump waiting and doesn't wear a suit that I think that would go really badly for him. | ||
| Look at the they have a massive American flag on the executive office building. | ||
| You can see they're just sort of out the other side of the portico. | ||
| We were just there at the White House. | ||
| It was the first time I had the Marines open the door for me. | ||
| It's really freaking cool. | ||
| There's nothing like going into the West Wing right there. | ||
| That's the West Wing entrance. | ||
| This is where, yes, thank you cameramen for literally listening to me and panning. | ||
| I appreciate that. | ||
| Little announcement here. | ||
| Little announcement here for the chat and I wanted to tell everyone the good news while we're live and that Danny is in the process of becoming a White House reporter for our program. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Danny is in the process of getting his White House credentials. | |
| We were able to negotiate that while we were at the White House. | ||
| So expect to see a lot more of what we're going to call him Dapper Danny at the White House. | ||
| No, it'll be really exciting. | ||
| And what's really cool is being able to bring the audience into the room. | ||
| So much, so many of these reporters sort of reverse the same questions that they get sent from their executives in, you know, these buildings in New York. | ||
| And here we read the comments section, like you guys tell us what questions to ask. | ||
| You saw us go out and expose Jasmine Crockett. | ||
| And man, you guys do ask some good questions in the chat. | ||
| So we'll be looking at those in the future. | ||
| And maybe you'll hear them ask on live TV to Caroline Webbett. | ||
| So that'll be, that's pretty exciting. | ||
| Hey guys, I just, uh, I just reformatted my mic. | ||
| Just let me know if the sound, if it sounds better right now. | ||
| Yeah, it's a little good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| And we're on the road. | ||
| Okay, cool. | ||
| Oh, sweet. | ||
| That was, uh, that's Ice. | ||
| That's Ice calling me back. | ||
| Um, yeah, Ice, by the way, we can always pick them. | ||
| There's always something going on. | ||
| Ice wants us to go do a training with them to do an Ice training. | ||
| Should we do that chat? | ||
| What do we think? | ||
| They want us to like, that's the ICE got connected with me and the main spokesperson is like, why don't you come up and do a training? | ||
| There are training facilities in Georgia and you can go do, you can do ICE training. | ||
| So the chat is very enthusiastically saying, yes, in all caps. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| All right. | ||
| ALX, what's up, man? | ||
| Look at that, look at that beautiful new office for ALX. | ||
| Yeah, we're getting moving. | ||
| Are you premiering the new ALX office? | ||
| I am. | ||
| I am. | ||
| Well, I was getting furniture delivered and stuff. | ||
| That's why I was here today. | ||
| And yeah, so we're in the middle of that. | ||
| But yeah, offices, we got the Trump chair and everything. | ||
| But, but yeah, we're just vibing watching These leaders all roll up. | ||
| We just had Georgia Maloney. | ||
| She was one of the last to arrive. | ||
| And I'm actually going to Italy later this week. | ||
| So maybe we'll have a meetup there if she's back there. | ||
| So, um, there she is right there. | ||
| Um, it's it's really incredible. | ||
| They're talking about Monica Crowley. | ||
| Sorry to interrupt you. | ||
| Is that Monica Crowley? | ||
| Yeah, Monica Crowley was one of the ones greeting all of the, all of the European leaders as they arrived. | ||
| Um, but yeah, they were saying that like usually anything with like more than three European leaders would take months to prepare for like the summit and this was all planned in the last 48 hours. | ||
| So a lot of people are saying they've never seen anything like this. | ||
| So it just shows the unprecedented nature for, you know, what they hope to be positive developments in Ukraine. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I had said it's completely remarkable. | |
| Yeah, that's exactly right. | ||
| This is the new AOX office. | ||
| Is this in Postgres? | ||
| Like what's AOX got behind him? | ||
| Is he in the Trump boardroom from the Apprentice? | ||
| This is like this is the this is unbelievable. | ||
| AOX is doing like the full Apprentice. | ||
| He's he's ready to do it. | ||
| Yeah, this is like total madmen. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| It's great. | ||
| I'm going to miss the old air conditioner window unit ALX. | ||
| Real, real. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, central air, no more air conditioner window. | ||
| Oh, moving on up in Massachusetts. | ||
| So, I've been trying to pay attention, you know, you just like try to pay, swipe through and pay attention to this. | ||
| All I've seen is that President Trump posted that there's going to be really big news on Russia soon, but I haven't heard any further details. | ||
| Has anyone else got them? | ||
| Or is that as much as we know? | ||
| I clearly held it very close to the chest. | ||
| I couldn't believe the mic drop. | ||
| in Alaska. | ||
| The mic drop in Alaska is one of the craziest things I've ever witnessed live. | ||
| And I was screaming like that Trump, just like Trump and Putin are standing there, all of the press are screaming and they're just like, and we're out. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Boom. | |
| And they drop. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I'm not going to drop my mind. | ||
| But like, so I actually found this video of a reporter who was covering the whole event. | ||
| And they made him meet at like 4 a.m. at like a Kmart parking lot, pick them up on these like prison buses and then bus them into the air base. | ||
| And so they made a video of the whole process. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| We have movement there, Carl. | ||
| Let's go big, Clyde. | ||
| Big, yeah. | ||
| Is this so this is gonna be Zelensky? | ||
| This is gonna be Zelensky is the last one to arrive. | ||

| Yep. | ||
| I see the Ukrainian flag on the car ride. | ||
| All right boys. | ||

| What's the what's the overrun? | ||
|
unidentified

| He could have changed. | ||
| I hope it's a summit for his own good. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't see the drill. | |
| Oh wait hold on. | ||
| I think it might be a is it black on black Russia continues to attack civilians there's I think it's black on black. | ||
| An overcoat or something? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't know. | |
| Zelensky does look like he does. | ||
| Zelensky looks like the make a wish kid or like the guy he just got out of juvenile detention, right? | ||
| For like selling speedballs. | ||
| And he's like getting his first internship in like the correctional facility program. | ||
| He just looks dingy. | ||
| He just looks unfair. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He's so short. | |
| Jerry says cocaine John Wick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| He just doesn't look okay. | ||
| Well, hold on. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Hold on. | |
| Was he wearing a suit? | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's a... | |
| An overcoat., it looks like, and then a button up buttoned up all the way but no tie. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's a very weird get up. | ||
| It is a suit jacket, it looks like. | ||
| I I just have a TV with a big one. | ||
| He's wearing a black on. | ||
| Okay, so he's on a black on black suit. | ||
| Does he have a tie on or is he just has no tie? | ||
| It's just and it's buttoned. | ||
| Now, that's weird. | ||
| It's like usually if you don't wear a tie, it's like at least the first button's unbuttoned. | ||
| It's buttoned up all the way without tie and it's just black on black. | ||
| It's like Mao Saitama. | ||
| Real. | ||
| Real. | ||
| Yeah, that's like the Mao. | ||
| That's like the Maoist style of suit. | ||
| Okay, well, what a loser. | ||
| I hate Zelensky. | ||
| I hate Zelensky. | ||
| He's such a scumbag. | ||
| I think there's a lot of, like, I'm not, I'm rooting for it to all be over. | ||
| I just want it all done. | ||
| I'm just, I'm tired of these personalities. | ||
| I'm tired of this garbage. | ||
| I'm tired of people, like, worshiping this guy. | ||
| He's such a little rat. | ||
| And, again, he looks like he's on one of those work release programs from prison. | ||
| We have a close-up from Margo. | ||
| There he goes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Let's get that close-up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah, so it's a jacket. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, he does. | |
| You know, he's doing time for selling speedball to eighth graders right in the parking lot of the high school. | ||
| The best I had. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I just said. | |
| But he faced it. | ||
| The best I had. | ||
| Dude. | ||
| Like Putin. | ||
| Putin looked really small. | ||
| That's Trump. | ||
| He's lucky he looks even smaller. | ||
| Trump's commenting it on there too, you guys. | ||
| I love it. | ||
| Yeah, he wouldn't be exactly like that. | ||
| I'll shut up. | ||
| Let's hear it again. | ||
| I'll shut up. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Watch out the kids. | |
| Who's saying? | ||
| Pretty beast? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Pretty stuff. | |
| Yeah, it was like a... | ||
| Trump's like a message to the people of Ukraine and its world leaders. | ||
| Classic. | ||
| We love them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We love them. | |
| Project continues. | ||
| Project continues. | ||
| The taxidermist is coming. | ||
| Thank you very much, everybody. | ||
| That's funny. | ||
| I haven't never, maybe it's just because I didn't pay attention. | ||
| I've never seen the car back out like that, you know, like pulled in and then it backed, it went backwards. | ||
| Strange. | ||
| The whole thing is like really, the whole thing is really remarkable that this is all happening so quickly. | ||
| I mean, honestly, the reason why I book a little like beach time with my family. | ||
| We're just in the Florida Panhandle. | ||
| This is our little like beach week. | ||
| But the reason I do this every single week is that it typically is a very slow news week. | ||
| But this is anything but we're like I the interesting thing is that somebody else cut their vacation short and that would be JD Vance. | ||
| JD Vance cut his vacation short to go like tear back in here to hopefully go berserker mode on Zelensky again. | ||
| We'll see. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll see. | |
| Yeah, we have it loaded. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That's a great one. | ||
| That's just like one that's like birthed some of the most classic Trump moments from this term. | ||
| It's like, did you ever try saying thank you once? | ||
| And it's so good. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Let's see it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So here's what, here's what happened. | ||
| last time. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So here's what happened last time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
JD, you are speaking about what do you mean? | |
| I'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that's going to end the destruction of your country. | ||
| But you think, Mr. President, with respect, I think it's disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media. | ||
| Right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you happen. | ||
| Oh, sorry, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| I thought we had more time. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Here's the Oval Office. | ||
| Klein, there's no audio. | ||
| All right. | ||
| So let's count it down. | ||
| Who do we got? | ||
| We got Steve Whitcoff, JD Vance, and Marco Rubio. | ||
| Same arrangement as last time., yeah. | ||
| P. Hagseth up there. | ||
| P. Hagseth back as well. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Uh-huh. | |
| Is that Bessett? | ||
| I think it's Bessett. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Yeah, Bessett next to Hagseth. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Here we go. | ||
| Well, thank you very much. | ||
| It's an honor to have the president of Ukraine with us. | ||
| We've had a lot of good discussions, a lot of good talks, and I think progress is being made, very, very substantial progress in many ways. | ||
| We had a good meeting, as you know. | ||
| just a short while ago with the president of Russia. | ||
| And I think there's a possibility that something could come out of it. | ||
| And today's meeting is very important. | ||
| We have, I guess, the seven very powerful leaders from Europe, and we're going to be meeting with them right after this meeting. | ||
|
unidentified
|
And thank you very much for being here. | |
| Thank you so much, Mr. President. | ||
| If I can, first of all, thank you for invitation, and thank you very much for your efforts, personal efforts to stop killings and stop this war. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| And using this opportunity, many thanks to your wife, the first leader of the United States. | ||
| She sent a letter to Putin about our children, adopted children, and my wife, she felt her duty. | ||
| First lady of Ukraine, she gave the letters. | ||
| It's not to you, to your wife. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So we're saying it's a sensitive topic. | |
| And thanks to our partners and that you supported this format that after our meeting we can have leaders who are around us, UK and France, Germany, Italy, Finland, EUNA, I mean, all partners around Ukraine supporting us. | ||
| Thanks to them. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you very much for the invitation. | |
| Thank you very much for being here. | ||
| President Trump. | ||
| Yes, Peter, go ahead. | ||
| Thank you, President Trump. | ||
| So, President Zelensky, you say in a post on X today, Russia must end this war, which it itself started. | ||
| President Trump, you say President Zelensky of Ukraine can end the war with Russia almost immediately if he wants to, which is it? | ||
| No, I think that's true. | ||
| I think they'll we're going to have a meeting. | ||
| I think we're going to if everything works out well today, we'll have a trilat. | ||
| And I think there will be a reasonable chance of ending the war when we do that. | ||
| Is this the end of the road for American support for Ukraine? | ||
| Is today's meeting deal or no deal? | ||
| I can never say that. | ||
| It's never the end of the road people are being killed and we want to stop that so i i would not say it's the end of the road no i think we have a good chance of doing it uh it's been almost four years now that a lot of people were killed last week a lot of people last week i mean millions of people killed but a lot of people last week for whatever reason a big number a lot of soldiers both on both sides and uh i know the president i know myself and I believe Vladimir Putin wants to see it ended. | ||
| And as you meet with Putin on Friday, so you've got President Zelensky here. | ||
| As you listen to Russia and Ukraine, which side has the better cards? | ||
| Well, I don't want to say that. | ||
| I'm just going to I'm just here to be, look, this isn't my war, this is Joe Biden's war. | ||
| He's the one that had a lot to do with this happening, and we want to get it ended, and we want it to end good for everybody. | ||
| We want it to end good. | ||
| The people of Ukraine have suffered incredibly. | ||
| And you're asking President Zelensky, President Zelensky, are you prepared to keep sending Ukrainian troops to their deaths for another couple of years, or are you going to agree to redraw the maps? | ||
| Thank you for your question. | ||
| So, first of all, you know, we live under everyday attacks, you know, that today have been a lot of attacks and a lot of wounded people and the child was dead, small one, one year and a half. | ||
| So we need to stop this war, to stop Russia, and we need support, American and European partners. | ||
| We will do our best for this. | ||
| And I think we will show that we are strong people, and we supported the idea of the United States, of personally of President Trump. | ||

Thank you. | |
| Mr. President, if the peace deal will be issued, are you going to be willing to send American peacekeepers to Ukraine? | ||
| Well, we're going to work with Ukraine. | ||
| We're going to work with everybody. | ||
| And we're going to make sure that if there's peace, the peace is going to stay long-term. | ||
| This is very long-term. | ||
| We're not talking about a two-year peace and then we end up in this mess again. | ||
| We're going to make sure that everything's good. | ||
| We'll work with Russia. | ||
| We're going to work with Ukraine. | ||
| We're going to make sure it works. | ||
| And I think if we can get to peace, it's going to work. | ||
| I have no doubt about it. | ||

posted on social media, Mr. President, a very touching letter from the First Lady, and the letter was hand-delivered Why did the First Lady feel that letter was necessary? | |
| Was it because she believes that Mr. Putin is the aggressor in the war? | ||
| Is a similar letter being hand-delivered to President Zelensky? | ||
| So the First Lady felt very strongly she's watched the same thing that you watch and that I watch. | ||
| I see things that you don't get to see and it's horrible. | ||
| But when she's got a great love of children, she has a wonderful son that she loves probably more than anybody, including me. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I hate to say it, but she loves her son. | |
| She loves children. | ||
| And she hates to see something like this happening. | ||
| And that goes for other wars too. | ||
| I mean, she sees the heartbreak, the parents, the funerals that you see on television, always funerals. | ||
| We don't want to see something other than funerals. | ||
| No, she felt it was a beautiful letter. | ||
| It was very well received by him. | ||
| She did ask me to say, you know, she would love to see this end. | ||
| She would love to see it end. | ||
| And she says it very openly, very proudly, and with great. | ||
| sorrow because so many people have been killed. | ||

Mr. President, last week, last week. | |
| Go ahead. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes, sir, I've got a question for each of you. | |
| First of all, President Zelensky, you look fabulous in that suit. | ||
| I said the same thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I remember that. | |
| I apologize to you. | ||
| You look wonderful. | ||
| No, my first question for you, President Zelensky. | ||
| In the same suit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You see, I changed you. | |
| Maybe yours is much better than mine. | ||
| Real quickly. | ||
| Upon peace, God willing, we get peace. | ||
| Are you open to holding an election in your country? | ||
| Yes, of course. | ||
| We are open for elections, yes. | ||
| We have to do safety in circumstances. | ||
| And a little bit, we need to work in the parliament, because during the war you can't have elections, but we can do security. | ||
| We need, maybe, how to say it, we need a truth, yes, everywhere, the battlefield, the sky, the sea, to make possible for people to do democratic, open, legal elections. | ||
| So you say during the war you can't have have elections so let me just say three and a half years from now so you mean if we happen to be in a war with somebody No more elections. | ||
| Oh, I was kidding. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wonder what the fake news. | |
| Speaking of news, I got a question for you. | ||
| This sounds insane for me even to ask this. | ||
| But do you think the American media really doesn't even want a peace deal? | ||
| Because they seem they've been so critical of you every step of the way as you lead the charge for peace. | ||
| It's an amazing phenomenon. | ||
| I said that if in the settlement, you got Moscow, St. Petersburg, and thousands of miles around them, they would say I made a bad deal. | ||
| The level of hatred and animosity is incredible. | ||
| Not with all. | ||
| We have great people up here. | ||
| We also have terrible people up there that I think are told what to say. | ||
| But, you know, in solving all of these wars, they don't even write about it. | ||
| You know, I saw major wars. | ||
| I saw wars that have been going on for 31, 35 and 37 and a couple quicker ones. | ||
| One that was going to go into a full-blown deal very quickly. | ||
| You know what the one I'm talking about was a big one. | ||
| But they don't even write about that. | ||
| No matter what I do, no matter what, and, you know, this is not anything to do with you. | ||
| It's probably to your advantage in a certain way. | ||
| But no matter what I do, no matter what deal I make, from my standpoint, you'll come out good. | ||
| Maybe President Putin will come out good. | ||
| But they'll say Trump was absolutely horrible. | ||
| It's just that, and I've lived with that for a long time. | ||
| I've lived with it since just before the first election. | ||
| I used to get great publicity. | ||
| Now I get the worst publicity anyone's ever gotten in office, but I won in a landslide so that that people understand they're the only ones that count ultimately. | ||
| But I've also had great reporters. | ||
| I've had journalists that are very good. | ||
| But it's very. | ||
| sad when you do the right thing. | ||
| As an example, they said, because of the fact that Vladimir Putin came to American soil, this was a tremendous defeat for Donald Trump. | ||
| No, it was really wonderful that he did it. | ||
| It was a hard thing for him to do, to be honest with you. | ||
| It was the opposite of what they said. | ||
| But they said it. | ||
| Now, if he didn't come, they'd say that was also bad for Trump. | ||
| There's no way. | ||
| It's just a great dishonesty of the press. | ||
| And I think that's why it's lost its credibility. | ||
| You know, its credibility is at an all-time low. | ||
| We have a thing going on right now in DC, we went from the most unsafe place anywhere to a place that now people, friends are calling me up, Democrats are calling me up, and they're saying, sir, I want to thank you. | ||
| My wife and I went out to dinner last night for the first time in four years, and Washington, DC is safe, and you did that in four days. | ||
| I'll tell you it's safe. | ||
| I had another friend of mine, he has a son who's a great golfer, he's on tour. | ||
| And he came in fourth yesterday in the big tournament where Scotty Scheffler made the great shot. | ||
| And he said his son is going to dinner in Washington, D.C. tonight. | ||
| I said, would you have allowed that to happen a year ago? | ||
| He said, no way. | ||
| No way. | ||
| He said, what you've done is incredible. | ||
| And I think the people realize it. | ||
| But the press says, he's a dictator. | ||
| He's trying to take over. | ||
| No, all I want is security for our people. | ||
| But people that haven't gone out to dinner in Washington, D.C. in two years are going out to dinner. | ||
| And the restaurants, the last two days, were busier than they've been. | ||
| in a long time. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So I walked around yesterday with MTG. | |
| if you go walk around with dc with mtg and not be attacked the city of sakes President. | ||
| Last week you warned of what you called severe consequences if a 30-day ceasefire or any type of ceasefire were not agreed to by Russia. | ||
| Will there be severe consequences? | ||
| Does that change because you don't think you need a ceasefire? | ||
| You know, if you look at the six deals that I settled this year, they were all at war. | ||
| I didn't do any ceasefires. | ||
| And I know that it might be good to have, but I can also understand strategically why, well, you know, one country or the other wouldn't want it. | ||
| you have a ceasefire and they rebuild and rebuild and rebuild and you know maybe they don't want that but if you look at the six deals that we made peace and you know long term long-term, long-running wars. | ||
| I didn't do any ceasefires. | ||
| Would I like? | ||
| I like the concept. | ||
| You know, I like the concept of a ceasefire for one reason, because you'd stop killing people immediately as opposed to in two weeks or one week or whatever it takes. | ||
| But we can work a deal where we're working on a peace deal while they're fighting. | ||
| They have to fight. | ||
| I wish they could stop. | ||
| I'd like them to stop. | ||
| But strategically, that could be a disadvantage for one side or the other. | ||
| But all of these deals I made without even the mention of the words ceasefire. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Are you supposed to make a decision to offer Ukraine Article 5 like security guarantees but stop short of pushing for their full membership? | |
| Yeah, well, we haven't done anything on that yet. | ||
| If you look back and you go back long before President Putin, it was always a statement that they would never allow Ukraine into NATO. | ||
| So that was a statement that was made, but we haven't discussed any of that yet. | ||
| We're going to be discussing it today. | ||
| But we will give them very good protection, very good security. | ||
| That's part of it. | ||
| And the people that are waiting for us, they are, I think, they're very like-minded. | ||
| They want to help out also. | ||
| Thank you, President. | ||
| Thank you, President. | ||
| Are you disappointed there's no money? | ||
| The United States has already given hundreds of billions of dollars to this war effort in Ukraine. | ||
| At best, it is a stalemate and the killing continues. | ||
| So, President Trump, how much more is the United States willing to give Ukraine? | ||
| And President Zelensky, how much more do you want? | ||
| Well, I'll start off just by saying we're not giving anything now. | ||
| were selling weapons. | ||
| This is something before That was under Joe Biden, a corrupt politician, not a smart man, never was. | ||
| By the way, go back 40 years years he was not a smart man 40 years ago either but now he's in particular bad uh this was done by a corrupt administration that shouldn't have been in and if the and frankly if the right results of the election were given if i were president this war would have never taken place and he would have been very happy because he would have liked to have seen i mean they went through hell he went through hell this war would have never happened and the people that were killed a couple of million people a lot of people with soldiers | ||
| and everything else and the people that have been displaced and forced into other areas and other countries because of what's happened none of that would have happened and uh And I'm just saying that he was a horrible president, whether it was the borders or this, he was just a horrible, corrupt president. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mr. President, would you like to say something? | |
| I can. | ||
| Thank you so much. | ||
| So first of all, we have possibility now to buy weapons from the United States. | ||
| We are thankful for this program and this opportunity. | ||
| We are thankful for Europe. | ||
| They pay for this. | ||
| And through NATO program for armored turbine. | ||
| and etc we have some programs where we can have some money to finance this and this apart i think it's not a part for for the war and to defend us, it also will be a part for security guarantees, to strengthen our army, to rearm Ukrainian army. | ||
| This is very, very important. | ||
| And it depends how much money we need to rearm. | ||
| example the question of air defense we spoke about it with president trump and i'm happy that we have now bilateral decisions and we work on it with production american production nobody in europe has so many uh You mentioned the Patriots. | ||
| How good is that system? | ||
| We have systems. | ||
| They're literally 100% foolproof. | ||
| And it's really like shooting two bullets, you know, two bullets hitting each other in the air in a space like this. | ||
| The chance is 100%. | ||
| It's 99 to 100%. | ||
| So we sell the equipment to NATO. | ||
| And NATO does what, I don't know what the arrangement is that you have with, but I know that they want you to have the equipment. | ||
| And we're getting the best equipment in the world, but they pay us for the equipment. | ||
| Under Biden, it was just crazy what was going on. | ||
| I believe the number is over 300. | ||
| I think it could be $350 billion worth of equipment and money and everything else. | ||
| And we've made more progress in settling this war in the last two months than they made in four years. | ||
| This should have been settled a long time ago, but it should have never happened. | ||

|
You pushed out on social media. | |
| Brian, go first. | ||
| You pushed out on social media about doing away with mail-in ballots and potentially electronic voting machines. | ||
| Can you expand on that and how important that is? | ||
| Well, that's a very off topic, just really quickly. | ||
| Mail-in ballots are corrupt. | ||
| Mail-in ballots, you can never have a real democracy with mail-in ballots. | ||
| And we, as a Republican party, are going to do everything possible that we get rid of mail-in ballots. | ||
| We're going to start with an executive order that's being written right now by the best lawyers in the country to end mail-in ballots because they're corrupt. | ||
| And you know that we're the only country in the world, I believe, I may be wrong, but just about the only country in the world that uses it because of what's happened. | ||
| Massive fraud all over the place. | ||
| The other thing we want change are the machines. | ||
| For all of the money they spend, it's approximately 10 times more expensive than paper ballots. | ||
| And paper ballots are very sophisticated with the watermark paper and everything else. | ||
| We would get secure elections. | ||
| We'd get much faster results. | ||
| The machines, I mean, they say we're going to have the results in two weeks. | ||
| With paper ballots, you have the results that night. | ||
| Most people, almost, but most people, many countries use paper ballots. | ||
| It's the most secure form. | ||
| So between paper ballots, very, very important, paper ballots, and I think maybe even more important, the mail-in voting. | ||
| We're going to end mail-in voting. | ||
| It's a fraud. | ||
| If you have mail-in voting, even Jimmy Carter with this commission, they set it up. | ||
| He said, the one thing about mail-in voting, you will never have an honest. | ||
| election if you have mail in it. | ||
| And it's time that the Republicans get tough and stop it because the Democrats want it. | ||
| It's the only way they can get elected. | ||
| Because with men and women's sports and with transgender for everybody and open borders and all of the horrible things. | ||
| And now the new thing is they love crime. | ||
| They're fighting me on the fact that I've made Washington, D.C. safe. | ||
| We're not going to get mugged, beaten up, or killed. | ||
| like all the people you've been watching get so badly hurt. | ||
| I'm glad I hate to take your time in this, but I'm glad you asked me that question. | ||
| We're going to stop mail-in ballots because it's corrupt. | ||
| You know, when you go to a voting booth and you do it the right way and you go to a state that runs it properly, you go in, they even asked me. | ||
| They asked me for my license plate, for identity. | ||
| I said, I don't know if I have it. | ||
| They said, sir, you have to have it. | ||
| I was very impressed, actually. | ||
| But it's very hard to cheat with mail-in voting. | ||
| As you know what happens in California, it's so corrupt where some people get five, six, seven ballots delivered to them. | ||
| Now we got to stop mail-in voting and the Republicans have to lead the charge. | ||
| The Democrats want it because they have horrible policy. | ||
| If you have mail-in voting, you're not going to have many many Democrats get elected. | ||
| That's bigger than anything having to do with redistricting, believe me. | ||
| And the Republicans have to get smart. | ||
| We're not going to have a country. | ||
| I said for a long time, it rallies everywhere. | ||
| You need borders and you need free and fair elections. | ||
| Those two things. | ||
| Otherwise, you don't have. | ||
| We have strong borders now. | ||
| In 90 days, Mr. President, we didn't have one, zero, zero, and three months. | ||
| Not one person came in illegally into our country. | ||
| In fact, even I find that hard to believe, but it's run by a little bit of a liberal group that put out the numbers. | ||
| So I guess it's zero, zero and zero. | ||
| It was terrible. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you very much. | |
| What guarantees do you need from President Trump to be able to make a deal? | ||
| Is it American troops, intelligence, equipment? | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Everything. | ||
| Really, it includes two parts. | ||
| First, strong Ukrainian army. | ||
| That's what I began to discuss with your colleagues. | ||
| And it's a lot about weapon and then people and training missions and intelligence. | ||
| And second, we will discuss with our partners. | ||
| It depends on the big country. | ||
| big countries on the United States on a lot of our friends. | ||

|
Mr. President, are you willing to commit American terms to that NATO-like protection in order to get President Zelensky to a deal today? | |
| Well, I don't know if you define it that way, but NATO-like, I mean, we are going to give, we have people waiting in another room right now. | ||
| They're all here from Europe, biggest people in Europe. | ||
| And they want to give protection. | ||
| They feel very strongly about it. | ||
| And we'll help them out with that. | ||
| I think it's very important. | ||
| I think it's very important to get the deal. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You've been involved with the peacekeeping in Ukraine since your first day in the administration. | |
| What would you say to the Ukrainian people right now who are suffering under the Russian attacks and hoping that the American people will stand for them? | ||
| Well, I know Ukrainian people. | ||
| I've known many over the years. | ||
| They're great people. | ||
| They're smart. | ||
| They're energetic. | ||
| They love their country. | ||
| I mean, they love their country and we want to get this war ended. | ||
| That's all I can do. | ||
| I love the Ukrainian people. | ||
| people but I love all people I love the Russian people I love them all I want to get the war stopped. | ||
| Very important. | ||

Mr. President, was there any aspect of your discussion with Vladimir Putin that left you disappointed. | |
| Look, we just spoke to, I was just telling the president, I just spoke to President Putin indirectly, and we're going to have a phone call right after these meetings today. | ||
| And we may or may not have a trilat. | ||
| If we don't have a trilat, then the fighting continues. | ||
| And if we do, we have a good chance. | ||
| I think if we have a trial, there's a good chance of maybe ending it. | ||
| But he's... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thank you very much. | |
| There, what you were listening to were the press wranglers whose job it is to save the president from the seething and screeching of the press as they get escorted outside of the room there. | ||
| You see the new Rose Garden. | ||
| AOX, what do you think about that? | ||
| That was wild. | ||
| It went a lot better than it did the last time. | ||
| And you'll note the multiple comments about the attire that Zelensky was wearing from the moment that he walked. | ||
| in, it was the first thing that Trump said when he was walking in the door saying, Oh, I like this. | ||
| And I'll have to listen to it again. | ||
| I swear I swear I heard Zelensky say, It's the best I had or something like that. | ||
| I forget it. | ||
| I'm pretty sure that's what I heard. | ||
| I'll have to watch it again. | ||
| But then Brian Glenn, who asked the question the last time, Why aren't you wearing a suit? | ||
| then complimented the fact that he wore a suit. | ||
| And then what did Zelensky say? | ||
| Did he say you're wearing the same suit as last time? | ||
| Yeah, yeah. | ||
| So he was roasting him back. | ||
| And that was epic. | ||
| That was great. | ||
| So the vibe was a lot more positive and it seemed as though one of the questions that were asked to they were saying, are you going to accept any giving up any land or anything of that? | ||
| And usually in the past, Zelenskyy has been very reticent to even suggest or entertain that. | ||
| And he'd say, no, no, no, we're fighting the war, whatever, they're not, we're not going to give up any land, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| This, he kind of seemed like he was, he didn't deny that it was going to happen. | ||
| He said that it looks like we're on track for a trilad this week possibly. | ||
| So it's really a change in tune from the last time, which was obviously more hostile. | ||
| And then, you know, Zelensky just seems to have changed his attitude and tune and more focused on ending the war rather than in the past, the whole Lindsey Graham type scenario of we must support Ukraine at all costs and, you know, not even outlining what victory looks like for them. | ||
| You know, that's what we've seen out of Zelensky and all the pro Ukraine people in our government in the past. | ||
| And it seems like, you know, the attitude has shifted and now they're focused on actually coming to a resolution of the war. | ||
| So I think it's very positive. | ||
| We'll have to see what the actual, um, the meeting with all the other EU leaders, um, will actually look like. | ||
| And again, like I said earlier, it's really a big deal that all of them kind of flew out on a, on like a drop of the hat. | ||
| Usually it takes like months to plan these things with more than three EU leaders. | ||
| This was all planned in 48 hours. | ||
| So that really must like show that there have been positive developments on the, the phone call that Trump had on the way back from Alaska. | ||
| And actually, so I was hearing from people on the plane, Jack Pesobic being one of them, that he was on the phone nearly the entire time. | ||
| And then even when they landed on Air Force One, they were stopped at Joint Base Andrews, and no one was getting off the plane because obviously you had the problem the president get off. | ||
| And they held up at like Joint Base Andrews for, I think, about thirty minutes because he was still on the phone at 2 am with Zelenskyy. | ||
| So it really, and again, it shows that like there must have been some really positive developments on those phone calls because, you know, all those leaders on a 48 hour notice flying to DC, it just, you know, the attitude has completely shifted. | ||
| So it seems like that there is hope for possibly a trilateral agreement this weekend or, you know, people are saying Friday. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| That's optimistic, I think, but we'll see. | ||
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| Very encouraging. | ||
| And such a departure from what we've seen. | ||
| And of course, like you wouldn't do this whole, you wouldn't fly in basically every European leader if you could have just done this like the whole summit in an email. | ||
| Like you're doing this because there's something concrete that has happened since they last since President Trump last met with Putin just a couple of days ago. | ||
| And now all of a sudden they're all here in DC again on our turf. | ||
| So really like the mediators of this whole thing. | ||
| President Trump again is magna doctrine really bringing peace of the world stage. | ||
| So it's pretty encouraging. | ||
| We had that picture of Zelensky up a moment ago, which was interesting. | ||
| You could see what he had on. | ||
| If we zoom in, it's like like, it's kind of like a suit, it's kind of not a suit. | ||
| It was like his best attempt, but President Trump seemed like he was very appreciative of the gesture of not wearing a track suit to the White House again. | ||
| So there you have it. | ||
| I can't even tell what kind of jacket it is, but it is some sort of suit jacket. | ||
| It's on the chest, yeah. | ||
| Like it has the, like, whatever that's called, but it doesn't go all the way down. | ||
| Like, weird. | ||
| It looks like, I don't know, it looks like it's like a half overcoat, but it's like cut off like a normal jacket. | ||
| So I don't know what he's wearing. | ||
| We have, but we have the video from the Oval Office, I think, which is definitely placed, again, Brian Glenn. | ||
| And following up on their last Oval Office meeting where he did not wear a suit. | ||
|

You look fabulous in that suit. | |
| I said the same. | ||

| No, my first question for you, President Zelensky. | ||
| In the same suit. | ||
| Yeah, I changed you. | ||
| Maybe yours is much better. | ||
| That was so great. | ||
| Yeah, the attitude is much more positive and, yeah, you know, again, like his, just his engagement with reporters and just his report with Trump is, you know, promising that it seems like they're more on the same page this time. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| What do you think? | ||
| Should we play back their old Oval Office encounter? | ||
| Just so people can see the contrast and let's I think that's a good note to show how much progress we've made in just a couple of weeks since they last met at the White House. | ||
| President Trump again bringing peace to the world stage, pretty exciting. | ||

What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you talking about? | |
| What do you mean? | ||
| I'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that's going to end the destruction of your country. | ||
| Yes, but if you Mr President, Mr President, with respect., I think it's disrespectful of you to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this before the American media. | ||
| Right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems. | ||
| You should be thanking the president for trying to bring it into this country. | ||
| I've been to I've actually watched and seen the stories, and I know what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour, Mr. President. | ||
| Do you disagree that you've had problems bringing people into your military? | ||
| And do you think that it's respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country? | ||

A lot of a lot of questions. | |

|
unidentified
|
Sure. | |
| First of all, during the war, everyone has problems. | ||

I'm not telling you what we're going to feel. | |
| Because you're in no position to dictate that. | ||
| But remember this. | ||
| You're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel. | ||
| We're going to feel very good and very strong. | ||
| We're going to feel influenced. | ||
| You're right now not in a very good position. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You've allowed yourself to be in a very bad position and he happens to be right about it. | |
| You're not in a good position. | ||
| You don't have the cards right now. | ||

Right now, you don't have the cards. | |
| You're playing with the lives of millions of people. | ||
| You're playing with World War 3. | ||
| You're playing with World War 3. | ||
| And what you're doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country that's back to you far more than a lot of people said they should have. | ||
| Have you said thank you once in this entire meeting? | ||
| No, in this entire meeting. | ||
| You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. | ||
| Offer some words of appreciation for the United States of America and the President who's trying to save your country. | ||

We are staying in our country, staying strong from the very beginning of the war we've been alone and we are thankful i said thanks you have been in this cabinet you're not alone we gave you stupid president 350 billion dollars you were we gave you military equipment you were and you men are brave but they had to use our military one of us if you didn't have our military equipment you invited me you didn't have our military equipment this war would have been over in two weeks in three days i heard it from putin in three | |
| days this is something maybe less in two weeks of course yes it's going to be a very hard thing to do business like this i was going to tell you to say thank you i said a lot of things except for american American people accept that there are disagreements and let's go litigate those disagreements rather than trying to fight it out in the American media when you're wrong. | ||
| We know that you're wrong. | ||
| But you see, I think it's good for the American people to see what's going on. | ||
| I understand that. | ||
| I think it's very important. | ||
| That's why I kept this going so long. | ||
| You have to be thankful. | ||
|

You don't have the car. | |

| I want to go and I want this. | ||
| Look, if you could get a ceasefire right now, I tell you, you take it so the bullets stop flying and your men stop calling and killing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Of course we want to stop the war, but you're saying you don't want a ceasefire. | |
| I said to you, I want a ceasefire. | ||
| Because you'll get a ceasefire faster than a degree. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ask our people about ceasefire, what they think. | |
| That wasn't with me. | ||
| That wasn't with me. | ||
| That was with a guy named Biden who is not a smart person. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was with Obama. | |
| Excuse me. | ||
| That was with Obama who gave you sheets and I gave you javelins. | ||
| I gave you the javelins to take out all those tanks. | ||
| Obama gave you sheets. | ||
| In fact, the statement is Obama gave sheets and Trump gave. | ||
| Javelin's. | ||
| You have to be more thankful Because let me tell you, you don't have the cards. | ||
| With us, you have the cards, but without us, you don't have any cards. | ||
| It's going to be a tough deal to make. | ||
| because the attitudes have to change. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What is wrong? | |
| Man, what a contrast there. | ||
| That was just a couple of weeks ago. | ||
| Yeah, definitely a lot different. | ||
| Same room. | ||
| The posture is totally different. | ||
| You can see on Zelinski, obviously his outfit, like he actually showed some respect for the People's House and the president. | ||
| Totally different. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| You can see it's not like, yeah. | ||
| It looks a lot less like tense. | ||
| It seems like they've had a lot of conversations in between these last two meetings. | ||
| They seem like they have more rapport. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Totally different. | |
| White House probably got a little more gold since last time. | ||
| That's like the best barometer for like time differentials in the White House is how much gold has Trump added to the White House since the last meeting. | ||
| You can see it's actually decent amount. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It looks a lot sharper. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And it's funny, I was actually in the Oval Office a day before the Zelensky meeting. | ||
| So that was one of my first impressions too, was just seeing I had never personally been in the Oval Office before that, but just seeing all the gold and then the amount of paintings on the wall. | ||
| I'm like, is this how it's always been? | ||
| And then I had ended up reading like one of the days after that that like he had just added all those paintings and then I just saw like the before and after the famous one with him and Biden. | ||
| It's like crazy how much it's such a difference. | ||
| Oh yeah. | ||
| Biden's just like all gray. | ||
| It was like it had no color to it. | ||
| It had like the blue rug that was like weird. | ||
| They didn't really fit, honestly. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I like this. | ||
| Got the air force, the fresh Air Force one in the middle that's coming soon. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yep. | |
| There we go. | ||
| Man, what a change. | ||
| I'm pretty, I feel pretty, pretty positive. | ||
| Um, after seeing what we just saw in the Oval Office. | ||
| Um, I think we might be, we might be getting peace soon. | ||
| We, we've seen President Trump do this countless times, um, during this administration and the last one. | ||
| Um, so I, we'll see what happens, but I, I think today was pretty encouraging. | ||
| Yeah, I agree. | ||
| And we'll have to, yeah, we'll have to see what, uh, later when, so Trump's going to be meeting with the other EU leaders privately, and then there's going to be another, um, meeting in the Eastroom, I think it is, just with all of the other EU leaders. | ||
| And I'm pretty sure that Zelensky is going to be there as well. | ||
| So we'll have to see, you know, what comes out of that if there's any announcements after meeting with the other EU leaders. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Watch this space, guys. | ||
| Stay tuned. | ||
| We're not going to miss a moment of it. | ||
| Man, I'm glad we I'm glad we, you know, we pushed live and we did. | ||
| That was, that was, that was, yeah. | ||
