Trump on Iran:

They want to desperately meet.

Until they are ready to meet in a meaningful way, we have no interest in meeting.

Trump on Iran:

We are degrading them at levels that nobody thought was possible. They’re being degraded really seriously.

They did slip something through in Jordan.

Trump on World Cup:

It was the most successful World Cup ever.

We didn’t even have a protest. We had no crime.

Reporter: Do you feel safe?

Trump: I feel safe. Why wouldn't I feel safe?

Trump to Lebanese President:

If the President wanted me to speak to Hezbollah—you know he’s lived with Hezbollah for a long time—I would.

Trump:

If we left right now, it would take Iran 20 to 25 years to rebuild.

We’re not finished at all. We are not leaving right now.

Trump on Iran:

Young kids—they kill them like they’re nothing, like they’re candy. It’s crazy what they do.

They’re just killing people at random—over 52,000 people—and nobody talks about it.

Trump on Iran:

We will absolutely attack the new site they’re talking about. They’re in this because of nuclear weapons, and they’re trying to reconstitute a nuclear site.

We’ll hit that site. Any site where they’re even thinking about nuclear weapons, we’ll hit it very, very powerfully.

Trump on Iran:

Nobody knows, except the Iranians, the damage that we have done to them.

If we left tomorrow, we would have had a big success. But we're not leaving tomorrow.

Trump on Canada:

They need us to survive.

There’s no way they can survive without us.

Trump on Syria & Hezbollah:

Well, it’s a concept. We get along very well with the President of Syria. He’s done a very good job.

He’s pulled Syria together. He would like to come in and do something with Hezbollah.

He has been fighting Hezbollah for a long time. I think it would be very effective.

Trump:

We took over Venezuela.

We went to war with Venezuela and the war ended in one day.

Trump on Iran:

Honestly, they haven’t seen anything yet. We’ve been nice.

I don't believe they could ever rebuild.

Reporter: Do you believe that Iran has moved nuclear centrifuges?

Trump: We follow the material. That’s where the action is, and we’ll be hitting that area very probably pretty soon.

There’s not much they can do about it. Normally, I wouldn’t say that.

If I thought they could do something about it, I would never say it. But we’ll be hitting that area pretty soon.

Trump:

I understand Lebanon.

Hegseth:

Iran has been given every opportunity to negotiate, to show that they’re reasonable on the Strait of Hormuz.

But if they’re going to target commercial shipping, then we’re going to hit them, as the President has said, ten times harder.

Trump:

I think Lebanon might have been safer than Washington, D.C., 15–16 months ago.

Trump on the Iranian attack that killed two U.S. soldiers:

They did slip something through in Jordan. If we had other operators, that wouldn't have happened.

You know, when you let other people do your job, it sometimes doesn't work so well.

Trump:

Venezuela had a movement, a shifting of the earth, that was unbelievable.

They had never seen anything like it.

I guess you would call it an earthquake.

The U.S., Israel and Lebanon are exploring several options to disarm Hezbollah.

One proposal would have the U.S. train, equip and vet elite Lebanese army units, which would gradually replace Israeli forces in southern Lebanon before eventually attempting to disarm Hezbollah if necessary.

Other options include having Syria help cut off Hezbollah's supply routes or relying on continued Israeli military operations to weaken the group.
