Transcript:

When we made this it was made during my term my first term. And it was so sad because I said can you imagine I'm not going to be president and uh that's too bad. And then what happened is, they rigged the election and I became president. So that was a good thing, that was a good thing, that was quite a uh quite an achievement for both of us.

So I'll be president during the World Cup and during the Olympics which we were very instrumental in getting and then of course uh we have our 250th birthday too and of that I wasn't instrumental, that just happened to fall in the same time.

So we have the three those three big events you don't get very much bigger than that the Olympics the World Cup and number 250 and it's a great honor. But I appreciate you're selecting us. And we were selected a long time ago though,during during the term during my first term and uh it's an honor to be with you.

Again, why are you giving him the benefit of the doubt? He doesn't deserve it. He said he was going to be a dictator day one, he is. He said Project 2025 is awesome and he's going to use it as a guide, he did. Why would you?

Edit: Also, it didn't "debunk it," it's just saying what people want others to think. FFS, he doesn't deserve any of you sticking up for his stupidity being the culprit. Go. after. him.

I’m not. He literally said the same thing before and the context supports it.

You’re engaging in wishful thinking.
