00:00We have a gentleman coming home from Russia that they've been after for years.
00:04He was captured or taken during the Biden administration.
00:09Wouldn't have happened if I were president, but he was taken.
00:12And he's a highly respected man, Mr. Hubbard, Stephen Hubbard.
00:17And we were in the midst of negotiating, and a lot of stupid people said,
00:22and people that don't know how life works, they said,
00:25why aren't you putting Russia's sanctions and all this in the midst of a negotiation
00:30to try and get a long-term hostage back from Russia?
00:34You didn't give Russia anything in exchange.
00:36If I would have done that, you would not have Mr. Hubbard coming back.
00:39So you did give him anything in exchange.
00:39Right now, right now, and you don't know anything.
00:42I mean, you're fake news CNN.
00:43Look, right now you have a man that's beautifully flying from Russia
00:48to wherever he's landing in the United States that I got out
00:52because I had a very good and very fast negotiation with President Putin.
00:57If you were to put those sanctions on, or whatever you want to call them,
01:01you could forget about him.
01:02You'd never see him again.
01:03He'd be back in jail for 25 years.
01:05The other thing, very important,
01:07we're negotiating with Russia right now on Ukraine.
01:11We are maybe close to a deal for the first time in a long time.
01:15We're maybe close to a deal.
01:17When you're close to a deal and you have very delicate negotiations,
01:20you don't put sanctions on.
01:22And the other thing, we have decimated Iran.
01:27Russia has had very little input into Iran.
01:30They have, certainly they could have done a lot more,
01:33but I'm not sure they did almost anything.
01:35That's something that you have to take into consideration also.
01:39So we've beaten Iran.
01:40We continue to beat Iran.
01:42And Russia and China, frankly,
01:44have not been certainly much of a player.
01:47And we appreciate that.
01:48So the people that say that, oh, let's put sanctions on,
01:51you know, I have the right to do them at any day.
01:54If they behave badly, if they be...
01:58You don't know what you're talking about.
02:00You're a dummy.
02:00You're a low IQ person.
02:01You're a dummy and you weren't missing in it.
02:03Let me tell you, if I'm negotiating to get a man back,
02:07a man that we've wanted back for years,
02:10a man that was a prisoner in Siberia or someplace in Russia,
02:14and we're getting it back because of me,
02:16should have been brought...
02:17It should have never happened,
02:19but it should have been brought back during Biden
02:21because he was there during the Biden.
02:23He was captured or taken during Biden.
02:26When you're negotiating that and you're dropping,
02:29and I know that I'm doing it,
02:31and because a lot of people didn't know,
02:33and they say, oh, let's put sanctions on Russia,
02:36the negotiation would obviously come immediately to an end.
02:40So use your head.
