HEATED: Trump RAILS Against the Supreme Court in Birthright Citizenship Fight!

Added: 2026-05-22

[00:00:00]Thank you very much. Good job. Thank you everybody. Right. So any questions, please.

[00:00:06]>> Thank you, Mr. President. How much do you expect this will save the average American family every month on groceries? And do you expect this change to help very substantial going to be a big saving? I could uh we're breaking it down. In fact, numbers are coming out this afternoon sometime. But the average family will save a lot of money. And you're going to have stories. You know, nobody actually thought of it until it was mentioned this morning. You have stores closing down in areas where they're not going to have a store anymore. That's right.

[00:00:35]>> And you really are being forced to spend money, much more money on much more expensive equipment that really doesn't work.

[00:00:44]This friend of mine is a very savvy guy and you know big league stuff and he put some in because he wanted to see and he said the stuff doesn't work. It doesn't cool the food properly. That's why they call the thing that we're talking about a refrigerant for a reason. It's a refrigerant. So that's it. Please. Thank you very much.

[00:01:03]>> Yeah. Thanks, Mr. President Trump. Are there any assurances from the grocery chains that they'll pass these uh savings down to consumers?

[00:01:11]>> Well, let's ask Kroger about that. Come on. That's a very good question. You have those you have the biggest right here.

[00:01:17]>> Yeah. Um we're actually right in the middle of doing that at the moment. So, uh, we're concerned about the cost of living. It makes a big difference when you get your pricing right and, uh, we certainly are interested in ensuring that all our customers right across the country are paying the right price.

[00:01:36]>> You know, if it were the right thing to do, if it would be, you know, bad for the environment, what they had or and it I'm all for it. I'm all for that stuff.

[00:01:44]But when you're forced to put in very inferior equipment, it's not going to work. It's not you're going to be wasting a lot of food product because it doesn't cool the food and it's the bad thing is more expensive than what they already have and in many cases they just put it in. You know, they just put in the other uh apparatus and and a lot of people have said they've spent money recently to do it and then this rule came up out of nowhere >> and the stuff they just put in they have to change. Uh, I'd be all for changing if it, you know, if it was good, even if it was a little bit good, but this is actually bad.

[00:02:25]>> Yeah. You don't have any environmental concerns though.

[00:02:28]>> No, there is no environmental concern.

[00:02:30]>> And Lee covered that really well.

[00:02:31]There's no environmental concern. It's not going to have any impact on the environment.

[00:02:36]>> Mr. President, with many Americans concerned about affordability ahead of the midterms, there is some backlash among Senate Republicans to some of the other priorities, uh, the ballroom and that anti-weaponization fund. You clearly still have a stronghold in the Republican party. Your candidates did very well this week during the primaries. But are you losing control?

[00:02:55]Senate said well. Not all candidates did well.

[00:02:57]>> But are you losing control of the Senate, sir? Are you losing control of the Senate? Senate Republicans?

[00:03:03]>> I don't know. I really don't know. I can tell you I only do what's right. Uh I don't need money for the ballroom. You know, I'm making a gift of the ballroom.

[00:03:11]This is the biggest uh misreporting that I've ever seen. The ballroom is being built. it'll cost. We've done it was going to be 200 million. I've doubled the size of it because we need it. And it's being done in conjunction with the military and with the uh very much in conjunction with the military and secret service. We're on time, on budget. It's going beautifully. Uh have all the money I need. We're making a gift to the United States. Uh they came along and they said, "We want to make it uh the house, the White House overall more secure." And I understand that. not for me because I'll be gone. You know, I'll be gone and you'll have somebody else in for uh hopefully hundreds of years. But that's what they're doing it for. Uh the ballroom is paid for. It's a gift. I mean, I I want to make it clear because so many people say, "I thought you were giving this away." And all of a sudden, the money that they're spending is for security having to do maybe around the ballroom and other parts of the house.

[00:04:08]But this is not for the ballroom. The ballroom is u being a tremendous amount of what's being done with respect to the ballroom is for national security including as an example a drone court on top of which was top secret until litigation made it less than top secret.

[00:04:27]But we have a drone port. We had all we have also we have the glass that's 4 in thick bulletproof glass. We have bulletproof walls. We have you need a place like this. But this is being made as a gift from me and other people that are great patriots that spend a lot of money. We're building what will be the finest ballroom anywhere in the world.

[00:04:47]Uh if they want to spend money on securing the White House, I think it would be very very much a good expenditure, but the ballroom is being built.

[00:04:57]>> But what if Congress doesn't sign off on the security money, sir?

[00:05:00]>> Uh then the White House won't be a very secure place. But then regarding Cuba, there was an aircraft carrier that just arrived there um just uh this week, a limited aircraft carrier. Are you sending that there to intimidate the Cuban government?

[00:05:15]>> No, not at all. The Cuba, look, it's a failed country. Everybody knows it. They don't have electricity. They don't have money. They don't have really anything.

[00:05:23]They don't have food. And we're going to help them along. And we're going to help them because the people because number one, I want to help them. I don't want to on a humanitarian basis, but we have the CubanAmerican population, much of it living in Miami and Florida. That's a great group of people, amazing group of people, industrious, just they're great Americans. They've wanted this staff and they want to go back to their country.

[00:05:46]They want to help their country. I hope they're going to stay here, but they want to go back. They want to invest in their country and, you know, see if they can bring it back. Uh other presidents have looked at this for 50 60 years doing something and uh it looks like I'll be the one that does it. So we'd be happy to do it. We want to open it up to Cuban Americans where they can go back and help.

[00:06:09]>> Released a report this morning report on the last election on why you won and Democrats lost. One thing that it mentions is how they failed to reach middle America, southern Americans. Do you think they've learned lessons from that election? And have you seen that report?

[00:06:24]>> I think the elections are so rigged and we have to do something about it and we're going to do something about it, but we cannot continue to have and frankly the Senate and the House, they ought to get together and they ought to pass the Save America Act so that you have voter ID and it's so important you have proof of citizenship. Little thing like proof of citizenship and also mailin voting which is so crooked. So, in Maryland, as you probably saw, they had 500 500,000 mail-in votes that were corrupt. They were corrupt. They said the printer made a mistake. Don't believe that. And they got caught with 500,000 mail-in ballots that were corrupt. We got to stop it. We have a a country that has a very corrupt. We have more corrupt elections than third world countries have. And we ought to get smart. Pass the Save America Act.

[00:07:14]That'll be a long way. You have voter ID, voter identification. The Democrats don't want to pass. Now, I'll tell you what, the Democrat voters do want to pass. 87%.

[00:07:24]But the Democrat politicians don't want to pass. And the reason is they'd never be elected again because with their policy of open borders, transgender for everyone. I call it transgender mutilization of your children for everybody, uh men playing in women's sports, all of the the stuff that they do, high taxes. They want a tax hike.

[00:07:45]They voted in favor of high taxes. They voted against a tax cut. They voted in favor of men playing in women's sports.

[00:07:53]I don't know what these people are thinking. The only way they can win is to cheat. And that's what they want to do. And we ought to pass the Save America Act. Yeah.

[00:08:01]>> Yes. Mr. President, I have two questions for you. One of them. Uh first about the uh the ballroom and the second about Iran. Um first, I'm curious. What is the stone that you're going to be using? And I asked that for a reason cuz I live in Stafford County and you know a lot about history and stuff like that. So you know the stone that was ced for the capital of the white house is from Stabber County. They still have glories. So uh down there just curious.

[00:08:25]>> Okay.

[00:08:26]>> All right. Excellent. And then my second question is the vice president mentioned the other day there would be accommodations. They were willing to make accommodations with the Iranian deal. Um could you kind of expand on those possible accommodations as does that include >> you say a combination of what >> accommodations? You're talking about accommodations as far as making a deal uh making a deal going. Is that would that right now we're negotiating >> and we'll see but either we're going to get it one way or the other. They're not going to have a nuclear weapon. You know when people hear it because often times they won't put up the second part of the sentence having to do with I'll say this is more important than anything that we have to talk about. And usually they'll cut it off the fake news. I said because this is the nuclearization of a country that some people would say is somewhat crazy and we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That's all it is. We can't let it. You will have uh a nuclear war in the Middle East and that war will come here. That war will go to Europe.

[00:09:27]Uh we cannot let that happen and it won't happen. It's not going to happen.

[00:09:31]That's more important than anything else. We can't think I can think of nothing that's more important than the fact that we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon and and we won't. Yeah.

[00:09:40]Jeeoff, >> following up on this, Iran is negotiating with Oman to set up a formalization of charging tolls in the street of four moves. Is that acceptable to you? Well, we're looking at it. We hear about it. They've negotiated.

[00:09:52]They've had a relationship with them before. Uh and we'll see. Uh, we have total control of the straight of Armus, as you know, with our blockade. The blockade's been 100% effective. Nobody's been able to get through. It's like a steel wall. It's our navy. We have the greatest military anywhere in the world.

[00:10:10]We wiped out their navy. We knock wiped out their air. I think they're down to about uh I would say we knocked out 85% of their missile capacity. It's very hard for them now to build missiles uh to build drones. We have great drone technology, anti- drone technology now that frankly we didn't have even two months ago. We have unbelievable drone technology both both for making them and also for knocking them down. Uh but look, we're going to either make sure they don't have a nuclear weapon or we're going to have to do something very drastic. And uh the people of the country, I believe when it's put to the people of our country, they will all agree that we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. want to end up just just let me just just one follow on that. How do you want things to end up with the street of Pris? Would you like them to have it?

[00:11:01]>> We want it free. We don't want tolls. Uh it's international. It's an international waterway. They're not charging tolls. Uh right now they are losing $500 million a day is what it's projected. I know it sounds like a lot of money, but whether it's 500 or 200 or 300, they're losing a lot of money.

[00:11:20]There hasn't been a ship that's been able to get through without our approval and uh the Navy has done an amazing job and uh no ship is going to Iran as you know no ship is going to or out of Iran without our approval.

[00:11:34]>> Can they keep their highly enriched uranium?

[00:11:37]>> No. No. We get the highlyenriched we will get it. We don't need it. We don't want it. We'll probably destroy it after we get it. But we're not going to let them have it. Okay. Mr. President, I have two questions. First on deregulation. 7 months in court. You coming from business, you've seen the effects of unnecessary redefining finding cafe states tax cuts in Paris.

[00:12:06]Do you believe that you made the United States demons pro business investment country? Yeah, thank you very much for that question because we are we are for every one new regulation that we add, we're getting rid of 20 to 30 to 40 and now it's actually at an even number. In my first term, uh for every regulation that was added, we got rid of a minimum of 10 and I understand Lee that it was up it's up to 43 or 44 right now. So if we add a regulation, we get rid of 43 44, we're making it a much more uh pro business, pro people, uh you know, regulations are very costly for the people. They're bad for everybody.

[00:12:46]They're bad for jobs, bad for every and we have, as of today, we have more people working in the United States than at any time in the history of our country. It's a to me, it's one of my favorite stats. But we have more people today working in the United States than at any time in the history. And this is with the Iran conflict. That'll end soon, very soon. And when it ends, your gasoline prices will go down lower than they were before. You know, I left Iowa a few months ago, and gasoline was at $185 a gallon. That's right.

[00:13:17]>> Uh and we'll be hitting numbers like that again. Mr. >> President, we'll be hitting them in a much nicer way. By the way, we'll uh we will be hitting them and we will have a country that will not have a nuclear weapon yet.

[00:13:28]So why is so long as today's >> on the Supreme Court, sir? We're still waiting for the decision on Earth right citizens. You attended your arguments of that. Can you just explain what's at stake with that decision, sir?

[00:13:41]>> Decision that we're waiting for from the Supreme Court. Uh we had a terrible tariff decision. They cost they cost our country a fortune. They said do it a different way. We're doing it a different way, but uh we're going to most likely have to pay back $149 billion. All they had to do is put a little sentence in there, half a sentence saying that any money's paid don't have to be paid back. You know, you're talking about the people in many cases that hate our country. Give them back money. It was a terrible decision.

[00:14:11]And uh it's not going to affect because we do the tariffs a different way. The tariffs are are what's bringing in all of this money. It's it's really made our country rich, modernly rich. Uh now we have another one coming up which is birthright citizenship. And we're the only country in the world that has it.

[00:14:31]You step into our country and you're all of a sudden a citizen. You come in a certain way. This was not meant for Chinese billionaires to have their children become citizens of our country.

[00:14:42]This was meant or other rich people, poor people. This was meant for the babies of slaves. This was signed during right after the Civil War. You look at the dates, the dates alone immediately after this was having to do with the babies of slaves and people have used it. And if this is allowed to stand, it will be a disaster economically for our country. And you'll have 25% of the people coming into our country coming in through birthright citizenship. and we won't have any control. This decision by the Supreme Court is a very big one.

[00:15:21]They'll probably rule against me because they seem to like doing that. Uh you know, frankly, uh uh I'm not happy with some of the decisions. Look at NIL. Look what they've done. Look what look what the courts have done to college sports.

[00:15:36]They're destroying college sports.

[00:15:38]They're destroying universities. But birthright citizens are big deal. And uh literally if that's allowed to stand and again this was a civil war. This was right after the civil war and it has to do with the babies of slaves. It doesn't have to do with the babies of very rich people coming into the country. One of them came in with 57 children. Okay. 57 children. They're using the system and it's usually people that hate our country. If you want to know the truth.

[00:16:09]a birthright citizen is done by no other country no other country in the world the way we're doing it. It's it's we're a laughingstock.

[00:16:22]And if the Supreme Court approves that decision, they have done a great disservice to the United States of America, just like they did a great disservice by costing us $149 billion on tariffs by saying, "Do it a different way. Get the same result. do it a different way. We should have won that decision. We had a very strong, very powerful descent. We had three descents.

[00:16:46]So, it wasn't like a unanimous decision by any means. We had very powerful descents. When you read that descent, people that read that descent say, "You really should have won this case. We should have won that case on tariffs."

[00:16:57]That case cost our country $149 million.

[00:17:00]It goes to people that hate our country.

[00:17:03]So, now we have another one coming up.

[00:17:05]Birthright citizenship. It would be a disgrace.

[00:17:09]It would be a disgrace if the Supreme Court of the United States allows that to happen. Remember what I said? 20 to 25% of the people coming into our country will come in through birthright citizenship. They'll become citizens through birthright citizenship. And it'll cost us numbers that are I don't even think they're doable. And it's all up to a couple of people and I hope they do what's right. Birthright citizenship is a disgrace. The fact that look at the people that are bringing the suit. Study the people that are bringing the suit. These are not people that love our country. I can tell you that.

[00:17:51]>> Mr. President today's executive order on AI Bas
