qualified to come out. they rushed the airplanes and they are plenty tough and smart, a lot of energy, those are the people who got onto the planes. 3%, 3% of the people qualified. and it s incredible what that did to our country. we are being left out all over the world, we are not respected anymore. we had a thing going, you look at taiwan, that was not happening during the trump administration with taiwan. they understood you can t do that. what s going on is a terrible thing for our country. y i don t think we ve ever been this disrespected. sean: you know, last time on this program, i think we need to put emphasis back on this, that your conversation with the leader of the taliban before you discussed any deal or withdrawal was number one, based on your stated threat that you would obliterate them. you remember exactly what you
if they pass this new green deal socialism, where you see the economy headed? i don t see good things happening. we called it before, it s called socialism. and it always fails. the promises are unfulfilled. more poverty exists in the end, and you give up a lot of freedom in the name of false security. mr. trump: so, the $1.2 trillion is about 9% think of that, 9%, talking about infrastructure, this is 9% infrastructure. should be 100% infrastructure. that is a total shame. the 3.5%, which people are saying is $5 trillion, numbersal never been discussed before with any president, nobody would do it because it s crippling to the economy. most of it is money you can throw right out the window. it s going to be devastating,
and then inflation has kicked in. it remember this, with energy going up like that, you know, you have a product and you needs trucks to deliver it, you need energy. with energy being doubled and tripled, what was just a few months ago when we were there, $1.87 per gallon, now it s over $5 per gallon. that s a lot more than 50%. when energy goes up like that, sean, everything s affected in terms of inflation. it has a huge inflationary impact on this country. i was here when jimmy carter when jimmy carter went out and did what he was doing. a lot of it was similar, but on a much smaller scale, we had inflation. and it was almost ruining for our country. it almost ruined our country.. this is much more severe. what they are doing is changing the social fabric of our country. it s not even believable. bernie sanders can t believe it. bernie sanders goes around
i mean, how crazy is this?wh sean: let me ask you this. and i ve gone ask this question about you a lot. people have known i ve known you for many years. we ve been friends for a long time. i ve known you long before you were income over 25 years. i agree with the president s policies and i want to run again in 2024, but maybe if you fight a little last.ou i don t know what that means if they want you to fight for issues like the border and lower taxes, energy independence. free and fair trade deals, fighting our enemies, and i don t know if they have a switch that ll go off and say i m going to be mr. nice to the media asking me hostile questions, but i do get asked the question a lot. is there anything that stylistically when people complain about style, that you would say that i m? mr. trump: remember this, when i got elected, i thought
any longer. he somebody who has always been highly respected. he is on the liberal side of things.. hopefully, he will do what s right. sean, the country can t take much more of it, they can t do it. those parents those are parents who love their country and they love their children. and they do not want all of this nonsense that s been fed to their children. they just don t want it. you know, they are trying to make them out to be terrorists. actually, today they call them terrorists, the taliban, they are terrorists. we gave them a lot. we are trying they are trying to approve $10 billion a year to go to afghanistan. $10 billion a year during the taliban on top of everything else can the $85 billion worth of equipment. it s going to be in our budget we do have other countries contributing to pay $10 billion a year to the taliban which is afghanistan.
