00:02:04PEOPLE HAVE BENEFIT FROM THIS
00:02:07INCREDIBLE ECONOMY THAT WE'RE CREATING. WE'RE WE'RE BUILDING RIGHT NOW A
00:02:10RECORD NUMBER OF PLANTS, FACTORIES, CAR COMPANIES ARE

00:02:51AND SHE'S SAILING NOW AND SHE'S REALLY DOING GREAT.
00:02:54SHE'S STILL GET TO RUN AGAINST
00:02:55THE RADICAL LEFT LUNATIC AND THE
00:02:59SOUTH CAROLINA PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO STAND FOR THAT.
00:03:01I KNOW SOUTH CAROLINA VERY WELL. I WON IT EVERY TIME BY RECORD
00:03:05NUMBERS HAVE THE ALL TIME RECORD BY MILLIONS OF VOTES.
00:03:09BUT I JUST TO CONGRATULATE
00:03:11DARLENE FOR HAVING WON REALLY A GREAT RACE.

00:03:26SO LINDSEY IS LOOKING DOWN VERY, VERY HAPPY AND VERY PROUD OF HER SISTER.
00:03:30SO CONGRATULATIONS, DARLENE.
00:03:32AND FINALLY, I GUESS THE PURPOSE OF THIS MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE
00:03:36IS WE'RE GOING TO BE CHANGING THE NAME OF LAKE ONTARIO
00:03:40EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY TO LAKE
00:03:44AMERICA. THAT'S GOING TO TAKE PLACE RIGHT NOW. AS I SIGNED THE ORDER.
00:03:48DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT IT? >> YES, SIR.
00:03:50>> SO THIS IS A STRAIGHTFORWARD BUT IMPORTANT EXECUTIVE ORDER.
00:03:54IT DIRECTS SECRETARY BURGUM AND THE DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
00:03:58TO THE GEOGRAPHIC NAMES, INFORMATION SERVICE TO REFLECT
00:04:02THAT LAKE, ONCE KNOWN AS LAKE ONTARIO, WILL, FROM THIS DAY
00:04:05FORWARD, BE KNOWN AS LAKE AMERICA. THIS IS A LAKE THAT HAS MOST OF
00:04:09ITS VOLUME IN THE UNITED STATES, THE DEEPEST PARTS OF THE LAKES
00:04:13AND IT STATES TERRITORY. SO THIS WILL REFLECT THAT THIS
00:04:16IS AN AMERICAN LAKE. >> THANK YOU.
00:04:22OKAY.
00:04:42OKAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
00:04:46AND WE FILED ALL THE NECESSARY PAPERS, DOCUMENT EVERYTHING.
00:04:50THAT ELSE WE NOTIFIED ALL OF THE VARIOUS PEOPLE THAT WE HAVE TO NOTIFY.
00:04:54SO WE'VE DONE EVERYTHING THAT YOU HAVE TO DO.
00:04:57AND THIS IS OFFICIAL, EFFECTIVE
00:05:01IMMEDIATELY. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, ANY
00:05:02BUSINESS ABOUT THIS?
00:05:05>> THAT VIDEO YOU PUT UP YESTERDAY AND YOU CROSSING OUT
00:05:09LAKE ONTARIO AND RIDING LAKE, IT'S BEEN SEEN BY 30 MILLION AND
00:05:12MAYBE MORE ACROSS SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS. >> WHAT MESSAGE ARE YOU SENDING
00:05:16TO CANADA WITH THIS MOVE TODAY? AND WHY WAS THIS SUCH AN IMPORTANT THING FOR YOU TO DO?
00:05:20>> IT'S AN INTERESTING QUESTION. NO MESSAGE.
00:05:23AS YOU KNOW, CANADA HAS BEEN RIPPING US OFF FOR A LONG TIME
00:05:26ON TRADE VERY SADLY, EVEN THE MILITARY, YOU KNOW, WE DEFEND
00:05:30CANADA FOR NOTHING. WE DON'T GET IT. THEY DON'T PAY US TO DEFEND CANADA.
00:05:33BUT WE DEFEND CANADA AND THEY UNDERSTAND THAT AS AN EXAMPLE,
00:05:38WE BROUGHT ICEBREAKERS THEY'D LIKE TO USE AND.
00:05:40WE HAVE 11 BRAND NEW ICEBREAKERS COMING IN.
00:05:42THEY'D LIKE TO USE ICEBREAKERS. THEY DON'T PAY FOR ANYTHING, AND
00:05:46THEY WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE A STATE, BUT THEY'RE NOT A STATE.
00:05:50BUT THEY WANT TO BE TREATED LIKE THEY'RE A STATE. AND SO WE JUST CAN'T DO THAT
00:05:54ANYMORE. WE LOSE ON AVERAGE OVER LAST 15
00:05:58YEARS, $60 BILLION A YEAR CARRYING CANADA. SO WE JUST CAN'T DO IT ANYMORE.
00:06:01WE LOVE THE PEOPLE OF CANADA. I DON'T THINK THEY'RE REPRESENTATIVES WHO ARE AN
00:06:06APPROPRIATE ISSUE. MAYBE THEY'LL CHANGE. I REALLY DON'T KNOW. DOESN'T MAKE MUCH DIFFERENCE.
00:06:10BUT WE LET THE WHOLE CANADIAN
00:06:13THING HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR
00:06:16DECADES AND IT HAS TO COME TO A STOP.
00:06:19SO WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING TARIFFS ON THEIR CARS THAT ARE
00:06:22COMING IN AT A SUBSTANTIAL LEVEL BECAUSE WE WANT TO MAKE THE CARS HERE.
00:06:26WE DON'T WANT, YOU KNOW, THEY CAN MAKE THEIR OWN CARS IF THEY
00:06:30WANT AND THEY CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE THEIR CARS FOR CANADA.
00:06:33BUT WE DON'T WANT TO MAKE WE DON'T WANT THEM TO MAKE CARS FOR
00:06:37THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. IT'S VERY SIMPLE.
00:06:40LIKEWISE, MANY OTHER PRODUCTS. SO THEY LIKE CHANGE THE LIKE OF
00:06:44AMERICA IS SOMETHING I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT FOR A LONG TIME,
00:06:48ACTUALLY, AS YOU KNOW, WE TOOK SOMETHING CALLED THE GULF OF
00:06:54MEXICO. WE CHANGED IT. AND NOW IT'S VERY ROUTINELY IN
00:06:56THE GULF OF AMERICA.
00:06:58SO IF YOU THINK ABOUT WE HAVE A
00:07:00GULF AND WE HAVE A LAKE.
00:07:04NOW ALL WE NEED IS AN OCEAN. SO MAYBE WE WILL HAVE TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE ATLANTIC AND OR
00:07:08THE PACIFIC.
00:07:10MAYBE, OR CHANGE ON THE SURFACE. BUT THE PRESIDENT IS PRIMARILY
00:07:14FOCUSED DOING THINGS LIKE THIS TOWARDS.
00:07:19AMERICA'S ALLIES INSTEAD OF DOING THINGS THAT, WELL, TARGET ADVERSARY IS THE CANADIAN
00:07:21OFFICIALS HAVE CREATED US VERY BADLY. THEY'RE NASTY PEOPLE.
00:07:25THEY CHARGE OUR FARMERS FOR 100% TARIFFS.
00:07:29THEY'VE DOING IT FOR A LONG TIME. AND I HAD THEM FIGURED OUT IN MY
00:07:32FIRST TERM, AND I DID SOME PRETTY STRONG THINGS AND HAD IT GETTING PRETTY GOOD.
00:07:36AND THEN THE ELECTION WAS RIGGED AND NOW I'M COMING BACK AND DOING IT THE WAY AND FINISHING
00:07:40THE JOB. BUT THEY TREAT US VERY BADLY.
00:07:44CANADA TREATS IS VERY BADLY. I WOULD SAY THAT OF ALL COUNTRIES, AS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE
00:07:48PRESIDENT COMING IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS. WE HAVE A LOT OF WE DEAL WITH A
00:07:51LOT OF PEOPLE. PEOPLE OFTENTIMES THEY'LL ASK ME
00:07:55WHO IS THE WORST TO DEAL WITH ON TRADE? AND I SAID, THAT'S EASY.
00:08:00CANADA, THEY ARE THE WORST. AND THEY FEEL ENTITLED AND JUST
00:08:02WE CAN'T HAVE THAT PRESIDENT TED
00:08:06CRUZ KEEPS TEASING A 2028
00:08:09PRESIDENTIAL RUN. >> YOU'VE RUN AGAINST HIM FOR PRESIDENT.
00:08:13>> DO YOU THINK HE COULD BE PRESIDENT? WHAT'S YOUR REACTION TO THAT?
00:08:15>> YOU SAY HE'S GOING TO RUN OR HE'S TEASING IT AND HE'S TALKING
00:08:18ABOUT IT, YOU KNOW, MEAN 20, 20, 20, 28?
00:08:20YEAH, I WOULD SAY THAT HE'S VERY TALENTED.
00:08:24HE'S A VERY GOOD FRIEND OF MINE.
00:08:28I THINK HE MIGHT DO THAT. YEAH.
00:08:30MR. PRESIDENT, HE'S A VERY
00:08:32TALENTED, TALENTED GUY. WHAT'S YOUR ASK? >> OR WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO
00:08:36THOSE WHO ARE CONCERNED? >> A TRADE DISPUTE CANADA COULD
00:08:38AFFECT AMERICAN AFFORDABILITY AHEAD OF MIDTERMS. >> ULTIMATELY, IT'S GOING TO BE
00:08:42VERY GOOD FOR US BECAUSE WE'RE LOSING. WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
00:08:45AFFORDABILITY, WE'RE LOSING 62
00:08:47BILLION A YEAR ON AVERAGE WITH CANADA.
00:08:51AND IF YOU REALLY LOOK AT IT, WE'RE LOSING MORE THAN THAT. SO MUCH, SO MUCH.
00:08:54WE CAN'T LOSE. WE DON'T WANT TO LOSE IT. WE DON'T WANT TO LOSE IT
00:08:58ANYMORE. IT'S REALLY A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO AGREED WE'RE COMMITTED TO NOT
00:09:02ATTACKING A NAITO TERRITORY. I'VE HAD GOOD TALKS WITH HIM. HE'S NOT GOING TO BE ATTACKING
00:09:08NATO, WHICH IS SUPPOSEDLY SUPREME COURT.
00:09:10>> EARLIER THIS WEEK RULED ON MAIL IN BALLOTS AND THERE ARE
00:09:14STATES LIKE NORTH CAROLINA THAT HAVE BALLOTS THAT GO OUT NEXT WEEK.
00:09:18>> HOW ARE STATES SUPPOSED TO IMPLEMENT THIS IN TARA WITH IN
00:09:22NORTH CAROLINA, IT'S GREAT. >> IT'S A IT'S A GREAT PLACE. I WANT TO GO THREE TIMES.
00:09:27THEY DO SOME MAIL IN BALLOTS. BUT BASICALLY THEY RULED ON THE
00:09:31LEGITIMACY AND THE WAY WE WANT TO MAKE THEM LEGITIMATE.
00:09:34AND IT WAS A GREAT RULING FOR THE REPUBLICANS.
00:09:37WHY YOU. KEEP VOTING BY MAIL DIRECTLY.
00:09:40>> SO YOU CAN DELIVER A WARNING TO.
00:09:44>> RUSSIA NOT TO ATTACK NATO'S TERRITORY DURING HIS. I DON'T WANT TO COMMENT ON THAT.
00:09:47>> I'VE GOT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO
00:09:51ATTACK. >> WHAT'S YOUR REACTION TO THE
00:09:54AMERICANS MISSING AND IN NEPAL
00:09:58AFTER. >> NO. AND WE'VE CALLED UPON WE'VE
00:10:00OFFERED ANY HELP THAT NEED YOU.
00:10:02WE HAVE A VERY GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH NEPAL AND THAT WAS A BRUTAL
00:10:06THAT WASN'T JUST THAT WAS MUD AND WATER AS A MIXTURE.
00:10:09NOBODY'S EVER SEEN ANYTHING QUITE LIKE THAT WHERE VERY
00:10:13POWERFUL, STRONG, YOU KNOW,
00:10:15STRONG, WELL-BUILT BUILDINGS WERE WIPED OUT LIKE THEY WERE
00:10:19TOOTHPICKS. THAT'S A TERRIBLE THING. NO, WE ARE SENDING AID.
00:10:23AND WE'VE SPOKEN TO THE LEADERSHIP AND WE LET THEM KNOW
00:10:27ANYTHING THEY WANT WILL HAPPEN. AND THERE WERE 50, MAYBE 60
00:10:31AMERICANS OVER THERE, WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN THE FULL LIST YET, BUT I
00:10:34HOPEFULLY THEY'RE OKAY. BUT THAT LOOKED PRETTY. BUT THAT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING
00:10:37THAT PEOPLE WILL NOT BE SOMEBODY
00:10:39WILL BE LOST, UNFORTUNATELY.
00:10:43AND THERE IS REPORTS THAT VLADIMIR PUTIN IS MEETING WITH
00:10:47THE PRESIDENT OF IRAN TO TALK ABOUT A NUCLEAR AGREEMENT NEXT
00:10:51WEEK. >> IS THERE A CONCERN IN THE ADMINISTRATION, IN THE WHITE
00:10:54HOUSE, THAT THESE COUNTRIES AREN'T TAKING ECONOMIC D-DAY
00:10:57SERIOUSLY, THAT THEY'RE GOING TO CONTINUE DOING BUSINESS WITH
00:11:00IRAN DESPITE THE WARNINGS RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE NOT PAYING THEIR
00:11:05TROOPS. >> THEY'RE IN DEEP TROUBLE.
00:11:07THEY HAVE VERY LITTLE CAPACITY.
00:11:11LAST NIGHT, WE TOOK 24 BOATS THROUGH THE STRAIT. WE'RE TAKING THEM THROUGH ALL THE TIME.
00:11:15I SAY SAID VERY OPENLY, IT DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE FINISHED WITH
00:11:19THE MILITARY, BUT WE ARE THE STRAIT IS OPEN. YOU KNOW, THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ
00:11:23IS OPEN.
00:11:24WE HAVE CONTROL AND WE HAVE THE BLOCKADE.
00:11:29IRAN IS NOT GETTING ANYTHING. NOTHING IS GOING THROUGH.
00:11:31NOT ONE SHIP HAS TO REPLENISHED PUTIN OR RUSSIA.
00:11:33>> IF THEY CONTINUE TO DO BUSINESS WITH IRAN. >> SO FAR, I THINK RUSSIA'S
00:11:37BEHAVED QUITE WELL, HAVING TO DO WITH THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ.
00:11:41AND YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND FOR
00:11:43EVERYTHING THEY DO, WE DO ALSO, YOU KNOW, SOMEBODY SAYING ABOUT
00:11:46CHINA, WHAT ABOUT CHINA? WE HEAR THIS FINE, WE SPY ON
00:11:49THEM TO TO ATTACK US. >> WHY NOT SANCTION CHINESE
00:11:53BANKS WHO ARE DOING BUSINESS?
00:11:56>> WE SAID, I'M NOT YOU SAID, WHY NOT? >> I MEAN, WHO SAID I'M NOT?
00:11:59YOU DON'T KNOW YET. WELL, I DON'T HAVE TO ANNOUNCE
00:12:03EVERYTHING TO IT.
00:12:04ARE YOU SPEAKING TO, SIR, ABOUT
00:12:07WHAT OTHER LEADERS HAVE YOU SPOKEN TO ABOUT THIS PRESSURE CAMPAIGN TO GET THEM TO CUT OFF
00:12:11TIES WITH IRAN ABOUT IRAN?
00:12:15IS THAT ALLOWED TO SPEAK TO. WE DON'T WANT TO SPEAK TO THEM. WE'RE NOT LOOKING TO MEET OR
00:12:19ANYTHING. THE STRAIT IS OPEN. WE'RE TAKING A LOT OF BOATS THAT
00:12:22MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF BARRELS OF OIL ARE COMING OUT OF THE
00:12:26STRAIT EVERY DAY.
00:12:28OTHER COUNTRIES RECOGNIZE THAT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE THEY SHOOT
00:12:33SOME YOU KNOW, THEY PUT SOME, SHAH SAID. YOU KNOW WE TOTALLY CLEARED THE
00:12:35STRAIT OF WE HAVE THE BEST MINESWEEPERS IN THE WORLD UNDERWATER.
00:12:40MINESWEEPERS, AND WE'VE TOTALLY CLEARED THE STRAIT OF MINES.
00:12:43AND WE'RE WATCHING VERY CLOSELY THROUGH SPACE FORCE, WHICH IS
00:12:47ONE OF MY THINGS, ONE OF MY MANY THINGS. BUT WE'LL WATCH IT.
00:12:50WE SEE EVERY INCH OF THE STRAIT AND ANY BOAT GOES IN WITH A MINE.
00:12:54WE SEE IT AND WE TAKE IT OUT. WE'VE TAKE IT OUT TO A THANK YOU.
00:12:58SO I'LL BE GOING TO TEXAS AND
00:13:00WE'RE WORKING VERY HARD. WE WANT TO WIN THAT RACE.
00:13:03HE'S RUNNING AGAINST A MAN WHO SHOULD NOT NEVER BE.
00:13:06WE HAVE A VERY GOOD CANDIDATE, KEN PAXTON, AND HE'S RUNNING
00:13:10AGAINST TYLER FRISCO. THEY CALL HIM BECAUSE HE IS A
00:13:13LITTLE FREAKY. AND THAT'S NOT A MAN THAT
00:13:17REPRESENTS THE VALUE OF TEXAS. SO I'M GOING TO HELP KEN PAXTON,
00:13:21AND I'M GOING TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME IN TEXAS. I HAVE THE ALL TIME HIGHEST VOTE
00:13:25IN THE HISTORY OF TEXAS ALSO.
