07:06 GMTTrump has praised Space X owner Elon Musk, saying that he was bewildered by the recent Starship test flight during which the company managed to successfully catch the returning booster, a feat which was seen as a major breakthrough towards its reusability.
He went to describe the billionaire as a “great cost-cutter,” noting that Musk thinks he could cut the government’s expenses by two trillion dollars. “He wants to save the country. He said that if Trump does not get elected, the country is finished,” Trump added.

The US has won nothing from its military interventions in the Middle East, Trump has said. “It used to be – you go to war, to the victor belong the spoils… We go to war, we bomb the crap out of [the country], and then we leave… What are we doing?” he asked.
The Republican blasted politicians that support these actions, including Liz Cheney, a former congresswoman and daughter of former vice president and war hawk Dick Cheney, who has endorsed Harris. “If it had been up to her, we would be in 50 different countries… It’s very dangerous. A lot of people get killed… And it’s very expensive, that’s why we owe $36 trillion,” he added.

Under the Biden administration, the US has ended up in a precarious position, as the dollar has started to lose its global clout. “If we lose the dollar as a standard, it is like losing a war. No way this will happen with me,” he said.

The administration of President Joe Biden has managed to “unite” China and Russia, accomplishing something that should have been avoided at all costs, Trump has said, adding that the two countries are “natural enemies,” given that Russia has massive territory and China needs it due to its large population. “We’ve allowed them to get together. It’s such a dangerous thing.”
“The stupidity of what they have done… I’m going to have to un-unite them, I could do that too,” the former president has said.

Kamala Harris is a “low IQ individual,” meaning “she doesn’t even know when she’s lying,” Trump has claimed. “She’s dumb as a rock. We love our country too much, we can’t have that,” he added. The Republican also compared Harris with Hillary Clinton, the Democratic nominee he defeated in the 2016 presidential election. The former secretary of state was “much smarter” than the current Democratic candidate, Trump said, adding that Clinton was nonetheless a “liar” and a “horrible scoundrel.”

Trump unexpectedly took credit for “killing” Nord Stream 2, a pipeline built to deliver Russian gas to Germany through the Baltic Sea. The undersea pipeline suffered a series of explosions in September 2022, when Trump was no longer president.
“[The Democrats] love to say that I was a friend of Russia, I worked for Russia, I was a Russian spy,”Trump said.
“The biggest job Russia ever had [was] Nord Stream 2. This is the biggest pipeline in the world, [it] goes from Russia to Germany and all over Europe. I killed it. Nobody would kill it but me. I stopped it,” he said, without elaborating.
Although Washington denied any involvement, Russia has suggested that it was likely behind the sabotage.
- 04:58 GMT
Trump slammed Liz Cheney, the daughter of former US Vice President Dick Cheney, as a warmonger and “dumb individual.”
“She’s a radical war hawk,” he said. “They’re all war hawks when they’re sitting in Washington in a nice building, saying ‘let’s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy,’” Trump said. Cheney “always wanted to go to war” whenever she was present at meetings, he added.
Despite her long career as a Republican, Cheney has strongly criticized Trump and endorsed Harris for president.
Trump similarly criticized former diplomat and State Department official John Bolton, describing him as “a real dope” and “a nutjob.”

Trump mocked the Democrats’ claim that, if elected, he would undermine democracy and the rule of law.
“They are a threat to democracy!” Trump argued. “They said I would put people in jail. That is what they wanted to do to me,” he said, referring to several court cases against him and investigations into his activities.
The Democrats have impeached Trump in 2021, while accusing him of inciting the storming of the US Capitol building on January 6 of that year.
- 04:40 GMT
Trump slammed the Democrats for promoting the ‘Russiagate’ claims in 2016 and onward.
He argued that Hillary Clinton and other high-profile Democrats have “conceived the hoax” that Trump had won the 2016 election thanks to the help from Russia just to justify their own loss.
- 04:28 GMT
Asked by Carlson about possible motives behind the administration’s current migration policies, Trump suggested that his opponents could be “stupid” or could “hate our country.” He also claimed that the Democrats could be motivated by wanting to encourage more migration so that they could win elections.
“They want to cheat on elections by signing these people. They’re trying to sign people up that don’t even know in what country they’re in,” Trump said.
Democrats, for their part, have denied the existence of “an open border” and blamed Republicans for stymieing legislation aimed at fixing the problem.

THE BIDEN/HARRIS ADMINISTRATION HAD AN OPEN BORDER POLICY WHETHER IT DENIES IT OR NOT...

White House altered transcript of Biden’s ‘garbage’ remark – AP
The unilateral change was “a breach of protocol,” the head of the stenographer’s office has reportedly complained
The White House Press Office has altered the transcript of a remark by President Joe Biden in which he appeared to call supporters of Republican candidate Donald Trump “garbage,” the Associated Press reported on Friday.
Biden was denouncing a joke made last week at a Trump rally by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe, who called the US territory of Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” drawing accusations of racism from Democrats.
According to the initial transcript produced by the stenographer’s office and quoted by the news agency, Biden told a Latino group: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters – his – his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.”
However, the version released to the public uses the possessive “supporter’s” rather than the plural “supporters” – meaning it would refer to Hinchcliffe personally. In a later statement, Biden maintained that was the meaning of his words.
According to the AP, the change was made by the Press Office as it scrambled to deal with the uproar caused by Biden’s comment. Trump capitalized on the gaffe on Wednesday by riding a garbage truck adorned with his campaign logo at an event in Wisconsin. Meanwhile, Democratic candidate Kamala Harris distanced herself from Biden, saying she strongly disagreed “with any criticism of people based on who they vote for.”
AP quoted an internal email sent to the Press Office by the head of the White House stenographers complaining about the “breach of protocol and spoliation of transcript integrity”caused by the unilateral change, which the message claimed the press service made after conferring with the president.
“If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently,” the email said.
The official reportedly noted that now there is an inconsistency between the transcript that the National Archives received and what the Press Office released to the general public.

In a letter to White House Counsel Edward Siskel sent on Wednesday, they accused the White House of releasing a “false transcript” of Biden’s words, arguing that it may have been a violation of the Presidential Records Act of 1978.
“White House staff cannot rewrite the words of the President of the United States to be more politically on message,” the message said.
