It was so complex—152 airplanes. Many, many talk about boots on the ground; we had a lot of boots on the ground.

Nobody was killed. And on the other side, a lot of people were killed, unfortunately. Mostly Cubans, but many were killed.

They knew we were coming. They were protected, our guys were not. Our guys were jumping out of helicopters.

The electricity for almost the entire country was, "Boom," turned off. That's when they knew there was a problem. There was no electricity.

The only people with lights were the people that had candles. It was just off.

So we sort of got them a little by surprise. It was brilliant tactically. It was an incredible thing.

The United States proved once again that we have the most powerful, most lethal, most sophisticated, and most fearsome military on planet Earth, and it's not even close.

I've been saying it for a long time. Nobody can take us.

He is a violent guy; he gets up there and tries to imitate my dance a little bit.

He killed millions of people; they have a torture chamber in the middle of Caracas that they are closing up.

I'm the king. I have sold more Boeings than any human being on Earth.

They gave me an award, Salesman of the Year.

I said, "What about salesmen in the history of Boeing?" I've sold more Boeing planes than any man in history by far. Probably over a thousand planes.

I said, "That's the good news. But why should they wait three or four years to get a plane?" They should build them and get them immediately. The F-35s and Apache helicopters take too long to get.

Nobody has the quality of our weapons. The problem is we don't produce them fast enough.

We're going to start producing them much faster. We're going to be very tough on the companies.

We have the best weapons in the world, but it takes too long to get them, including allies.

I guess I'm not allowed to run.

I'm not sure, is there a little something out there that I'm not allowed to run?

They come in from prisons from all over the world, but in particular, Venezuela, Tren de Aragua.

Tren de Aragua comes in and they say it's the worst gang in the world.

It makes our gangs look like little sweethearts. It makes you want to take our gangs out to dinner, they're so nice.

We should give everybody cognitive tests.

I am the only President that went for cognitives. Every President and Vice President should be forced to take cognitive exams.

Mental tests, like, are they intelligent?

I play speed golf. It's better that way.

You know the expression? Miss it quick.

I'm a good golfer. Everybody knows. Anybody that I've beaten in this group. I love to play golf, but I don't get to play much.

Depending on the way you calculate it, it could be thousands of percent down. It could also be 80% or 90%.

There are two ways to calculate it. Calculate it at 80-90%, but the other way is more accurate, like 900%, because that's what it really is.

Let me just finish up because, you know, I weave. I love to weave.

If you ever weave and don't come back to the point, then that's a problem.

When you weave and you go here and "Boom, boom, boom," always coming back, then you're in good shape.

I like him, he's a nice guy. Emmanuel. I love the French accent.

I said to Emmanuel Macron, listen you are going to have to raise your drug prices a little bit.

“No no no no, Donald, I will not be able to, we will not do that.”

Yes, you will, Emmanuel, 100%.

Most people call me Mr. President, except for people that don't respect me, they call me Donald, which are probably a lot of them too.

Putin and Xi calls me Mr. President.

Trump is right about everything. I had been right about everything. Gotta keep it going.

Is there wood up here? *knocks on wood* — I always like to, just in case.

Emmanuel said to me: “Donalddd, you have a deal. I would love to increase my prescription drug prices by 200% or whatever. I would love to do it; it would be an honor. Whatever you want, Donald, please don’t tell the population, I beg you.”

Every country said the same thing: "No, no, no, we will not do this."

Some were strong, some were very nice, and some were rude. But they all said one thing: "No, we won't."

Within, I'd say, on average, 3.2 minutes, they were all saying, "We would be honored to quadruple our drug prices."

Intel came in; they had a problem. I said, “I can solve the problem, but I think you should give the United States 10% of your company.

I can help you with a problem, but you have to give it to the U.S., not me. Sometimes I say "me," but when I say "me," I mean the United States.

I would love to accept it, but I don't think that law enforcement would like that.

What makes the enemy first request a ceasefire during [12-Day] war with the Iranian nation, then send messages saying he doesn't want to fight us?

Of course, the malicious enemy is a deceiving liar & we don’t trust them.

But what causes this is the power of the Iranian nation.
