Triggered - Donald Trump Jr - Trump Drops a Truth Bomb: Putin Only Did This Because Biden Let Him! Aired: 2022-03-10 Duration: 03:16 === The State of Our Nation (03:11) === [00:00:00] I don't think the country's ever been at a lower point than it is right now. [00:00:03] We're being pushed around. [00:00:05] Even the way Putin talks to Biden about Ukraine, he says, don't get involved. [00:00:11] Don't get near the fly zone. [00:00:13] We're nuclear power. Don't get near us. [00:00:15] We're nuclear power. [00:00:17] Well, we're a nuclear power, too. [00:00:19] We're a bigger nuclear power. [00:00:21] You know, I had all of the nukes redone and modernized and renovated and also new ones. [00:00:26] Not that I want them, but you need them for a case like this. [00:00:30] But you strengthened our military, too. [00:00:32] You came in and it was in a terrible state. [00:00:34] You knew that was important. [00:00:36] You understood strength. [00:00:38] And the world saw that. [00:00:40] And they understood weakness when they saw Biden. [00:00:42] And that's why we're in the position we're in. [00:00:44] We have a brand new military. Two and a half trillion dollars. [00:00:47] Now we left 85 billion behind in Afghanistan. [00:00:49] I am. Which could have been used in Ukraine right now. [00:00:52] That's 10 times more than they asked for, right? [00:00:55] Exactly. Think of it. That's far more than they asked for. [00:00:59] And we just left it behind. [00:01:00] Just left it behind and ran. [00:01:02] And ran. And left Americans behind. [00:01:05] There's never been anything so horrible or so embarrassing in terms of this country. [00:01:10] In terms of prestige and embarrassment and all, there's never been anything like that. [00:01:15] And I really think that's when it started going bad. [00:01:17] I really believe that Putin wasn't really—because I spoke to him about—I spoke to him very strongly about Ukraine. [00:01:24] I really believe that Putin wasn't thinking too much. [00:01:27] When he saw that mess that these people did, our generals, the stupidity of what they left behind, and the dead soldiers and everything else, when he saw that, I think he said, maybe this isn't a bad time to act. [00:01:40] You pick your moment, right? [00:01:41] Yeah. And he saw his moment when he saw that weakness. [00:01:45] What would you say to a candidate right now— Who's getting ready to gear up and run? [00:01:49] What advice would you give them to be successful in 2022? [00:01:53] Well, number one, you need tremendous energy. [00:01:55] You have to be smart. [00:01:56] There are a lot of tricks out there, and you have to be smart. [00:01:59] You have to be—you have to love our country. [00:02:01] I really think to do it well, you have to love our country. [00:02:03] And I really—you know, I've been fighting off hoaxes and scams and everything else for four years, all made-up stuff. [00:02:11] And you had such a great life. [00:02:13] You gave up so much. [00:02:14] You gave up your salary. [00:02:16] I had a great life. You had. I gave up. [00:02:18] You know, people don't know that. [00:02:19] So the president gets paid like $400,000 to $450,000 a year, $450,000. [00:02:23] And I gave it up. You gave it up. [00:02:25] I gave it all up. I didn't take it. [00:02:27] And you actually have to take it and then give it back. [00:02:30] And you would give it to charities. [00:02:31] And I gave it back. No, you give it to different departments. [00:02:35] So you give it on drugs. [00:02:37] So you give it to different departments. [00:02:39] But I gave it all back 100%. [00:02:41] Because you love this country. [00:02:43] Because I do love the country and because we need help in this country. [00:02:47] We have a country that just has lost its self-esteem. [00:02:50] I don't know. I've never seen anything like it. [00:02:53] People see me and they say, please, please come back. === Incompetence Threatens Country (00:20) === [00:02:57] Much more so than even before the election. [00:03:00] They've seen what happens, how bad it's being run, how bad things are being managed. [00:03:07] And you know, our country is at stake. [00:03:09] We are really losing our country. [00:03:11] We are. With what's happening, with the incompetence that we all see, we are losing our country.
