00:00They're laughing at us all over the world.
00:03President Xi of China, you take a look.
00:06Kim Jong-un of North Korea, take a look at
00:08what they're saying about us.
00:10They can't believe it's happening.
00:12In fact, if it weren't for the stupidity, the
00:14dumbest move, the worst, I think the most
00:17embarrassing day in the history of our country,
00:20Afghanistan.
00:22The way we got out, not the fact that we were
00:24getting out with dignity and strength and power.
00:27We were keeping Bagram, the Air Force Base,
00:29because it's only one hour away from where
00:31China makes its nuclear weapons.
00:34You know who occupies Bagram right now?
00:36China.
00:38They occupy one of the biggest airbases in the
00:41world, with the biggest runways, most powerful,
00:43strongest runways, deepest concrete.
00:45That was when we knew how to build, and we built
00:48with big dollars, and we built it, and we gave it
00:50up, just gave it up, just left.
00:53One hour away from where China, and now China is
00:55occupying it.
00:56It's a disgrace.
00:57They laugh.
00:58They think we are so stupid.
01:00They think he is the dumbest human being.
01:02They can't even believe.
01:03President Xi says this is some kind of a trick.
01:07When Biden walks in and he has no idea where the
01:11hell he is, where are we?
01:13Where are we?
01:14He can't find his way off the stage.
01:16See the stage?
01:17We got stairs all over the place.
01:21He can never find his way.
01:22I don't want to imitate, because any time I
01:25imitate, they say it was Trump.
01:27I called up our great First Lady.
01:29I said, he made this great speech.
01:31Fifty-eight thousand people.
01:33I made this speech, and then I imitated him trying
01:36to find his way off the platform.
01:38I go, you know, the way he always goes like, huh?
01:40And then he looks around.
01:43Where the hell is he going?
01:44He's pointing to a stair.
01:46Then he looked.
01:47But you know what?
01:47These Secret Service guys are stars.
01:49They always run up and grab them.
01:51They run up.
01:52They see he's in big trouble.
01:56But I imitated him not long ago, and I was
01:59doing — I did the full imitation.
02:00Then I ended up walking into a wall.
02:03And I said, baby, how good was that?
02:05How great was I tonight?
02:07We had some crowd.
02:08That was a massive crowd.
02:09How good was I?
02:11You were really good.
02:11You know, usually she'll say, I didn't like your
02:13hair.
02:14She'll say — I say, how good was I?
02:18You didn't look great.
02:18Your hair was terrible.
02:21I said, who else can get crowds like I get?
02:24Nobody.
02:24Sixty-eight thousand people in Alabama.
02:26A hundred and seven thousand people in New
02:32Jersey two weeks ago.
02:33A hundred and seven.
02:34Twenty-five thousand people in the South Bronx.
02:42And it was a love fest.
02:44It was a love fest.
02:47Now we get the biggest crowds in the history of
02:49politics.
02:49I hate to say it.
02:50And, by the way, if it weren't true, there would
02:52be headlines.
02:54But I said, who else can get these numbers?
02:56They tell me how good — how good was it?
02:59And she'd say, you know, your suit was bad.
03:01Have you gained weight?
03:03I'm saying, here I am up there.
03:06But, you know, one day she said it was phenomenal.
03:12But what happened?
03:13You couldn't find your way off the stage.
03:18And I said, they said that — so I can't be — I
03:21can't kid anymore because they know we kid, and we
03:26can't be sarcastic anymore because they take it,
03:28Byron.
03:29They take it as the truth.
03:31Isn't that terrible?
03:31My great warriors over here, they know we're
03:34kidding.
03:35We can't kid anymore because these people are
03:37so dishonest.
03:39I said, no, I was just imitating crooked Joe
03:41Biden.
03:42She said, oh, I see.
03:43Well, they didn't say that.
03:44They just showed you running into walls.
03:46And, fourth, I will cancel every unnecessary
03:52and costly Biden regulation that is driving
03:54up prices.
03:57The Biden regulations have added $10,000 a year in
04:00regulatory costs per household.
04:03By contrast, under my administration, we saved
04:07$10,000 per household.
04:10Nobody has ever seen anything like it.
04:12I can't — more tax cuts than any president in
04:16history, including Ronald Reagan with his big tax
04:18cuts.
04:20More regulation cuts than any president in history.
04:24And we rebuilt our military and we added
04:27Space Force.
04:28What we did is incredible.
04:30Now, the rebuilt military — you know,
04:31unfortunately, this fool left Afghanistan with
04:35$85 billion of brand-new planes and tanks and even
04:40goggles — night goggles — 77,000 vehicles.
04:45Think of it.
04:46Who needs 77?
04:47If you took the largest used-car lot in Florida
04:50— I'll bet they don't have more than 500 cars,
04:53maybe 700, maybe 1,000 — 77 trucks and vehicles,
04:59many of them armor-plated, were left in Afghanistan.
05:05And I tried to explain to people, we were getting
05:07out with dignity and strength, but the first
05:09thing you do is you take your military out last.
05:12They took their military out first.
05:14And once the military were gone, the Taliban had a
05:16field day.
05:18We lost 13 soldiers, and nobody mentions the 38
05:21soldiers that were horrifically wounded, with
05:24their arms blown off, their legs blown off, their
05:27face so badly damaged.
05:29They're warriors.
05:31They're warriors.
05:32But nobody mentions them.
05:33I mention them all the time.
05:35I mention them all the time.
05:41And we left many people there.
05:42Americans are there right now.
05:44And we should have never left that big, beautiful
05:50airbase.
05:51We should have never left it.
05:53There's never been — there has never been a
05:57more embarrassing moment, in my opinion, in the
06:00history of our country.
06:01And because of that, Putin attacked Ukraine.
06:05I mean, that's what happened.
06:06He looked at these incompetent people.
06:08He said, is this what I have to deal with?
06:11If I were there, he would have never, ever even
06:14thought about attacking Ukraine.
06:16And he didn't.
