Donald Trump just crashed out on the White House lawn. He held an impromptu press conference on the disastrous war in Iran. And folks, this press conference was utterly humiliating. This follows the ultimatum by Vladimir Putin to Donald Trump that if the United States stopped helping Ukraine, then Putin said that he would stop helping Iran target American troops. And this is what Donald Trump did. He goes out on the White House lawn, and he starts talking about ground troop deployments on the Karg Island in the northern Persian Gulf, which is part of Iran. We know that we have thousands of troops that are moving there, Marine Expeditionary Units. And Donald Trump says, well, because I have 100% support right now, then I think that, you know, that's all that matters. What do you mean you have 100% support? What in the Kim Jong Un hell is this? Here, play this clip.

Polls have shown that MAGA is essentially unified behind you, as are Republicans when it comes to Iran. There's been reports that, you know, the United States might be sending 2,500 Marines to the Middle East. Are you concerned that a move like that could potentially change the I don't know. I seem to have great support because CNN came out with a poll today that I'm at 100%. And they said they've never seen a poll like that. The CNN poll said I'm at 100%. And they've never seen that before, which is an honor. I was impressed that CNN would do that. But as far as troops are concerned, I can't tell you what we're doing. Mr. President.

Then as part of Donald Trump's White House lawn crash out, Donald Trump says about the straight of war moves that at some point, It will just open itself. We don't even have to worry about it. Like a miracle, it's all gonna go away, folks. It'll just, just like a miracle. Doesn't this sound exactly like what he would say during COVID Here, let's play this clip.

It's a simple military maneuver. It's relatively safe. But you need a lot of help in the sense of you need ships, you need volume. And NATO could help us, but they so far haven't had the courage to do so. And others could help us. But, you know, we don't We'll use it, you know, at a certain point it'll open itself at a certain point. But we've defeated the enemy and they are an enemy. They're a sick group of people. The leadership is gone. The Navy is gone. The Air Force is gone. The anti-aircraft equipment that they have, the radar they have is all gone. Everything's gone. The strait itself, the actual strait. How are you? The strait itself is— we're doing a good job. But it would be nice if the countries, including China, if the countries that use it— China uses it 90% of their energy, Japan is 95% of the energy— it would be nice if those countries would get involved.

Then regarding the incredibly high gas prices right now, you know, right now the pain that people in America and frankly across the world are feeling. And Donald Trump says, actually, I thought the prices were going to be way worse. So this is actually good. And he says, this is really good. I expected worse. Things are going to be great. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about anything. Here, play this clip.

We're not giving a nuclear weapon to terrorist thugs, and we're knocking the hell out of them. Their Navy's gone. Their Air Force is gone. Their leaders are gone. Their anti-aircraft is gone. Everything's gone. And no, I expected worse, actually. I really thought prices would go much higher. When I did, we just set every record, every record in the book with Dow, with the S&P. Dow at 50,000, S&P at 8,000, 7,000, at levels and speed like nobody's ever seen before. But I said I have to go off of that path and I have to take a little journey. We have to get these. And he would agree, but he's not going to say it. And this is not St. Patrick's Day, honey. What are you doing with that guy? But we're going to go off on a subpoena path and take care of business. And we are in the process of doing it. And I'll tell you, I think we're weeks ahead of schedule. My Secretary of State is very happy. You have a question for Marco? Yes.

And then Donald Trump says, look, at the end of the day, the war has been won. We've won this thing. America defeated Iran. So what are we even talking about here? This as Iran continues to have the ability to strike its Arab nation neighbors where there's American military presence. This as every time the US and Israel engage in a strike, Iran is able to very quickly retaliate. We know Iran struck down an F-35, and we know they control the Strait of Hormuz right now, and there's nothing the United States seemingly can do. But here's what he says. Let's play it.

What did you mean by that? He said the war was militarily won in Iran. What did you mean by that? Oh, I think we won. We've knocked out their Navy, their Air Force. We've knocked out their anti-aircraft. We've knocked out everything. We're roaming free from a military standpoint. All they're doing is clogging up the strait. But from a military standpoint, they're finished. So how much longer for the American—

Then Donald Trump says, look, I don't want a ceasefire at all. I'm not even looking for a ceasefire because why would you need a ceasefire when you totally obliterate the other side. He goes, they've been obliterated. I mean, the ranting and ravings of an absolute lunatic right here. What do you mean? They have, if anything, more capabilities right now than they did before. Sure, you hit some of their Navy and you hit some of their traditional military infrastructure. You also hit a lot of their kind of dummy infrastructure that they made it look like by using chalk were military assets. But Iran, if anything, is more extreme and has more influence in the region now. And we see that with their control of the Strait of Hormuz. So what are you talking about? Let's play this clip.

Calling for a ceasefire in the Middle East and to reopen dialog. What do you say to the folks? Well, look, we can have dialog, but we don't— I don't want to do a ceasefire. You know, you don't do a ceasefire when you're literally obliterating the other side. They don't have a navy. They don't have an Air Force. They don't have any equipment. They don't have any spotters. They don't have anti-aircraft. They don't have radar. And their leaders have all been killed at every level. We're not looking to do that.

Then Donald Trump is asked, well, what's your plan for the Karg Island? Like, do you have a plan? And Donald Trump's like, maybe, maybe not. But why would I tell that to a reporter? Look, the American people deserve to know what the hell is going on. Period, right? Are we sending a ground troop invasion into the Karg Island? Are you going to make matters even more horrific than they already are? But here, play this clip.

You know, I may have a plan or I may not, but how would I ever say that to a reporter? If I said that to a reporter, Marco would say, please, sir, let's bring you over to the helicopter immediately. Right? I can't tell you that.

Then a reporter wants clarification. So what do you mean when you say the war has been won. That doesn't make any sense to anybody. The war clearly has not been won. If anything, it's worse. So what are you talking about? Let's play this clip of what Donald Trump said.

We're making a lot of progress. The war was militarily won in Iran. What did you mean by that? He said the war was militarily won in Iran. What did you mean by that? Oh, I think we won. We've knocked out their navy, their air force. We've knocked out their anti-aircraft We've knocked out everything. We're roaming free from a military standpoint. All they're doing is clogging up the strait. But from a military standpoint, they're finished.

So, Donald, do you plan to escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz with or without allies? So what are you going to be doing here? Let's play this clip.

And do you plan to escort those ships through the Strait of Hormuz with or without allies? Very well there. We're doing very well overall. You know, we don't use the strait. We don't— the United States, we don't need it. Korea, Japan, China, a lot of other people. So they'll have to get involved a little bit on that one.

And feeble-minded, demented Donald Trump is like, well, why isn't China helping? Well, because China's not your ally, idiot. The same way Russia isn't your ally, idiot. They are allied with Iran. Why do you think China would want to help the United States as the US is essentially drowning right now in the Strait of Hormuz? Sure, this is causing pain to China, but China can work deals out with Iran to move their oil across the coastline through the Strait of Hormuz. They may have to pay a toll because Iran is charging tolls, and they may even not. But where do you think Iran is getting a lot of its assets from, right? What do you think is happening? You saw that clip right there. So next I'll show you what, uh, Lindsey Graham— Donald Trump has asked about Lindsey Graham. So Lindsey Graham has asked you to reconsider these alliances and having military bases in Spain and Germany. What do you say, Donald? Here, play this clip.

The American bases in Europe— Lindsey Graham has asked for you to reconsider the American bases in Spain, in Germany, after what they have done in the Strait of Hormuz. What's your take? Well, it deserves— he's right about asking that. And I think NATO's gone down a long way because they haven't I mean, they should be helping with the strait. They get much of their energy from the Strait of Hormuz. And if Lindsey Graham said that— and don't forget, he was a big NATO guy for a while and now he's not. And a lot of senators and congressmen, they were big. They're very upset with the fact that NATO has done nothing.

So Donald Trump's been spending the whole day starting in the morning attacking our NATO allies. And, you know, he said NATO, NATO's a bunch of cowards. And then his regime has been praising Putin. Here we have this clip of his Interior Secretary Doug Burgum from earlier today saying that Donald Trump identifies more with Russia and Russia-affiliated countries. This is Donald Trump's— sorry, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum. Earlier he had Doug Wright. He had a Energy Secretary Wright. Here's Doug Burgum, though, saying that America is closer with Russia. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum, let's play it.

That our orientation in terms of our alliances is changing.

Well, clearly it is. What we might consider our traditional allies from Europe have been less than reliable. And from the time that we've spent working with those folks in Eastern Europe, the closer they are to Russia, The more aligned they are with President Trump and the more aligned they are on energy policy.

Then Donald Trump, though, before that was talking about how, you know, for this act that he wants to do about voting, he needs Democratic votes and, you know, voter ID and no men, women's sports or whatever the hell he's talking about. And then he starts like talking about his ballroom and how much he loves his ballroom. It's really demented. Here, play this clip.

The transgender thing with mutilation of your children. All of the things that we talk about, you know, we added to, you know, we added two little elements. No men in women's sports.

Right.

You know that we added that. And when you add them all up, whether you take 4 or 5, I think they're all 95 to 99% issues. I hear it's going— look, it should be an easy pass. But we need Democrat votes. They don't want to approve voter ID because they cheat. They don't want to approve citizenship. In other words, we want to have citizenship in order to vote. You have to prove your citizenship. The Democrats don't want to do that. You know why? You know why? Because they want to cheat, Peter. Now, speaking of something that's more pleasant, we're going to be the greatest government anywhere in the world. Nothing like it. And they just started today one of the biggest pours of concrete that's ever been seen.

Then you have Doug Burgum, the Interior Secretary, talking about how right now we have the lowest energy prices in the world and we should be saying thank you to Donald Trump. So everybody who's suffering right now, they want us to say thank you. Thank you for giving us the lowest energy prices. I mean, these are the most vile people. Let's play this clip.

President Trump, 180 degrees different. American-made, U.S. energy, affordability for Americans, uh, and energy security. And then the ability, uh, right now for the, for the U.S. to be in a position where we've got the lowest energy prices in the world right now because of President Trump.

And then Doug Burgum, Donald Trump's Interior Secretary, wants everybody to know that everything is working as planned. This is exactly what we've all wanted. And, uh America's never been stronger. We're building up our alliances like never before. Here, play this clip.

Energy—

they want to buy energy from the United States. It's 8 days by ship from LNG, for example, from Anchorage to Tokyo, versus 30 days if it even gets there from the Middle East. People are desperate to have the stronger relationship with the United States right now on energy. President Trump's policy is absolutely working to build alliances around the world.

Yeah, the alliance seems to be the United States, Israel, Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states. Uh, Japan has a good relationship with us as well right now, and a lot of repair needed in Europe. Uh, Secretary Bergen—
