The Republican frontrunner discusses foreign policy, telling the "CBS This Morning" co-hosts how he would deal with Kim Jong Un and the turmoil in the Middle East.
Adonis Blandon i can tell your mature most who dont agree with hi hate everything he does i hate some of the things he does but i like him and trust him more than i did hillary or obama
his opinion on the issues in the middle east are correct. not the north korea comment though. if they get rid of kim jong un, what is going to happen to the rest of NK? is a bloody struggle for power gonna happen? are the millions of starving and uneducated citizens going to flow into china and south korea? if the two neighboring countries dont let them in, are they just going to be left to rot and die in NK?
@Rayman350 NK isn't that bad but western media want a war because NK is so private before and so many bad news from media, NK is just a normal country.
Reporters interrupt people because reporters have a job to do: To put their employers spin on the interview. They aren't interested in what the interviewee has to say. Their interested in how they can get the interviewee to say what their employer wants them to say. And with all of the misinformation, lack of details, media spin, and flat out lies, I don't watch the 'news'. I quit listening to that garbage years ago.
and do you think it is a good idea to push things with China? This is not a middle east smaller country, pal. We're talking about the only country that have a GDP similar to the US. If we ever have a war between the US and China things won't end well for anyone... in the world.
+DINDRAGON North Korea is the best Korea huh? North Korea; Where running water doesn't exist for the majority of the people, where the majority of people are malnourished- Because all the funding from China goes to their small and weak military. North Korea; Where they detain two people from the United States for 15 years for doing nothing. North Korea; Where they punish generations of innocent people for committing "crimes against the DPRK". It's evidently not "Jewish Propaganda" when there are North Koreans who have escaped their country and lived to tell the tale.
Shade On A Cool Day i was born in america and i have lived here my whole life. it was amazing at the start, but our president is really kinda corrupted.
+patriot raketje It's more complex than just attacking NK, other countries could step in if they think what we have done is wrong. Iran has ties with NK, they might start aggressions with the US.
+cid hobbs Trump knows next to nothing about history or geopolitics. He is a businessman, only interested in fattening his wallet. In the end it is going to come down to Bush vs Clinton no matter what the results are in Iowa or New Hampshire. You should know this by now I would think.
If ANYONE but Trump was saying this the left would cheer. Trump is saying no more US intervention and no more propping up puppet states. Please someone explain why he is wrong. I genuinely wanna know
Nope Dope You're an idiot. If anything it'd be the exact opposite. We can (and are doing it) fuck Russia's economy up without lifting a finger. Just by sanctions. So let the adults talk.
how would trump force anyone to do anything? you don't force in international policies because forcing starts world wars. furthermore, china holds the majority of our debt so idk how america is gonna force china to do anything. you dont force world powers to do anything. you negotiate. and how is this not US intervention? he is forcing other countries to do it so technically we're the puppeteer, if that's not intervening idk what is. And also this is the guy who said we can't let other nations know what we're gonna do, well didn't he just tell the whole world that he plans to take out kim jung un. hypocrisy at its best.
bornstandin do you even know America is a major importer for Chinese goods and with those dollars which they get from US China is importing oil,gas and col from Middle East Russia and Australia etc so if America won't import their goods Chinese companies will be in trouble and Chinese jobs eventually economy and growth so china won't take that risk to mess with US
Update in 2020 America is doing WORSE THAN EVER.. 22 MILLION UNEMPLOYED & OVER 32,000 AMERICANS DEAD FROM A GLOABL PANDEMIC TRUMP WAS WARNED OF THAT SUPPOSEDLY CAME FROM CHINA
If that involves Korea including a non-controlled demolition of the United States, then yes. We definitely need more battle scared terrain for more Trump hotels. But jokes aside, only time will tell how this all plays out.
:) I'm counting on him doing what needs to be done to any country that Fucks with America I say NUKE EM ALL!!! ....well all but russia they seem to want to start to talk and work things out ....the rest of the world can burn in hell
Baldr This "Intelligent" man also recommended spread of nuclear weapons as his foreign policy. He has no clue of what he is talking about, he says what he expects other people want to hear, that's it, no conviction or application of mind.
Abhijit Mehta Could you please provide an unedited clip where he blatantly says this. The media always tends to take edited clips out of context and twist his words to their narrative.
I’m from South Korea and I respect this man in every way including what he’s doing to China and NK. I don’t get why a lot of young Americans seems to hate him so much?
They listened to the media a lot!! The media here in USA like CNN and MSNBC. Those two news network has been proven to lie but yet we still have sheep’s who listen to them oh and along with hollywood actors also. It’s been nice though that some who has voted for Biden are starting to see the light in regret not voting for trump!!
Because of his overall policies. He is someone who intends to completely destroy democracy. He sent his supporters to the capitol and attempted to overturn the election results. That's why in the end he made good friends with Kim alright. With MBS. The only reason why he hated China was because of major economic competition, and he's an ultra US nationalist. Iran the same, because of their major nuclear arsenal and oil💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰. Trump has been the most dangerous and corrupt president in US history.
Thanks cutie pie I'm no fan either but you know the truth when you hear it. Funny thing is he is right I remember trump saying it when bush was there. like now the media used everything even trump, when bush was in. Now look same shit
Chien Phan-Nguyen - He's right! China AND Mexico are taking jobs and businesses from the US! Lmost everything is Made in China - and the US cars are assembled in Mexico!
Only He knows anyway, we're at a point where anything past his entering his office is on him, no matter how much people will pathetically and uselessly blame the media. His actions will change everything.
Amalgamaite By forcing China to deal with a country the U.S. has had direct trouble with. And if they don't obey then Trump will force them??? I guess if you want to go to war then he has good points.
You can literally feel the power emitting from Mr. Trump. Imagine sitting in on a meeting with this guy. Mr. Trump in total control, total confidence, absolute common sense. This is leadership. Instead of haters resisting, they should watch, listen and learn. Vote Trump in 2020: KEEP America Great!
CruzintheRaw I'm a brazilian man, and the interviewers didn't believed him when he said "We're gonna do this economically" and look now, the US forced China to negotiate with DPRK, after this, DPRK started to negotiate with US. I really appreciate the way he is running his country I hope Brazil will follow him and make a better job in our borders, believe or not, illegal immigration is costing us billions, mainly is coming from Venezuela, Haiti, Northern Africa. Our currently president is a shame, voted against Israel, and the conservatives in our country had to go there and apologize for that. What a shame. Well, the more I see about this man, the more I support him.
Adeilson de Oliveira ... Before Trump, many leaders, starting with Bush One, began moving towards a New World Order. Trump is simply putting and end to this. All Citizens of every Country should put their own Country first. I know all Countries are not the same and not so easy. But, nothing worth doing is easy.
"B-but muh white guilt! We have to send troops to every nonwhite country and protect them from themselves because imperialism and colonialism is bad!" - leftist.
I agree with you we shouldn't of gotten involved with other countries but we did it anyways, so now the worse thing we can do now is just pack our bags and leave
+Ashton Shepherd I agree. And when you think about it, of course they'd be annoying and not let him make sense. Their paychecks come from these socialist news outlets pouring money into Nurse Ratched's campaign funds so the whole shit pile of lies and manipulation can last at least another 4 years....
+Ashton Shepherd Actually CBS in this particular interview are doing great journalism. They are suppose to force the topics like they are and it resulted in a very good discussion. This is what good journalism looks like.
+Ashton Shepherd Trump does enough rallies. If you just want to hear him ramble watch one of those. News is for obtaining new information and new stories. Frankly, they should have probably asked more questions. But Trump was giving good detailed responses.
average N.Korean citizen makes the equivalent of 35 US dollars a year..... I have also heard Jong Un is deabetic and drs are fighting to keep him alive.
I am not from USA, but I hope Donald Trump will be elected for president. He can speak well for himself and I like his ideas, and he would be perfect. I just hope he does not get assassinated or have a heart attack, or age morbidity or any like thing that. Hope he get the chance to be president for a long time!
+MyAvatar I doubt this guy lives in a different country. I've been seeing lots of fake comments from Trump supporters claiming to be "I'm african american and I support him" or "I'm asian, or this or that blah blah".. They can't stand the fact that he doesn't represent a lot of diversity so they pretend and troll around acting like he does in order to satisfy their own ideological conundrums. I heard a clear white woman call into public radio claiming she was african american, i mean you could totally tell from her voice she was not at all, she was clearly an older white woman. Yes you can actually tell by the timber of someones voice. I saw a whole FBI profile on vocal recognition for different races.
Nelson King 😂😂😂😂😂 you must be one easy person to manipulate. Your trump is all talk without action to back it up. Explain why he retreated from the North Korea deal? And you trumpanzees say he’s a tough strong leader 😂😂😂😂😂😂 hillreporter.com/intelligence-report-says-trump-retreated-from-north-korea-deal-2707
NJDevils IsMyTeam2112535 You sound like you are in denial mate. The only thing Trump promised to do that he has not yet done is build a border wall and repeal and replace obama care. Other than that, the guy has kept every promise he made to his voters. Have you looked at the economy lately. The latest projections are of a 4.8% growth. Obama averaged a 1.5%. How can you even hate on that??
Nelson King Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha so trump’s not responsible for the $4 gallon of gas now? Making healthcare coverage way more expensive now and raised taxes on the average and middle working class while the wealthy benefits from his tax cut? His trade war with Canada and his tariffs on China is gonna benefit the economy too right? You seem to be in denial of trump. He’s playing your brain cells like a fiddle.
NJDevils IsMyTeam2112535 Clearly you are in denial mate. Whatever Trump is doing is clearly working. The US economy is set to grow at a record 4.8% and you are lecturing me about tariffs? Do you not understand how much of a big deal that is or are you just trying to ignore that fact? Yes, gas prices are up right now. But for how much longer? Gas prices might drop in one month.
Being right is all that matters. Being nice and polite is irrelevant if you're not right while in a position of leadership. That is why Trump was elected.
What comes around goes around. ..Kim got his brother and he can come get Trump just the same. ..Now if anything happens to this guy and they don't completely unass him he's going to full retaliation and you can't blame if it happens. .. We use to have laws about killing heads of states but the government has taken a dump on that sense SADDAM I guess and look at what that created. In the middle east problems. .. I can see the draft getting started back up...That's going to be Trumps jobs program, it will be huge..I've created millions of jobs like I promised in my campaign. ..lol
we could blow north Korea off the fuckin map in a heart beat. Nobody's worried.... NKs soldiers are HB probably too starved to go to war... And the second they decide to launch a missle at us.. They'd be wiped out before it even takes off
No. He is just saying simpleton things that appeals to some peoples emotions. People who can find it in their hearts to think the world is a simple place and solutions obvious.
Steve Musselman Too much crybabies too. The poor are poor for a reason. In the U.S. No one is truly poor. A homeless man can eat mcdonalds meals like a king whole in North Korea they are plucking corn from cow turds. Unbelieveable
KOMATHI SUKUMAR I hope you realize that this guy is actually crazy... The media over hypes this guy but he says completely crazy things. Real educated people are in totally against him, cmon now.
I wasn't born in the USA. I've lived over 33 years in this beautiful country that I call "Home". I have never voted before. I'll give my vote this year to Donald TRUMP.
Bill Clinton was duped by the North Koreans when they tricked him into a nuclear deal, called "The Agreed Framework". And they even admit they were just playing with him. 2015- His wife Hillary started and endorsed the Iran Deal. Fool you once, shame on them, fool you twice your a liberal!
SO IS ASSASSINATION A BAD THING? It depends on the situation! SITUATION #1: If the assassination is done by a Republican it's considered "a bad thing" by the liberal media. But if it's done by a Democrat, like Kennedy assassinating the Vietnamese leader, it's considered "being tough". (i.e. Obama Assassinating Khadafi). SITUATION #2: If the assassination is done ON a Democrat, like Oswald assassinating Kennedy, it's considered "a tragedy". But if the assassination is done ON a Republican like Reagan; it's considered "a gun-control issue". (Reagan's assassin was released after a liberal psychologist said he was fit to rejoin society; and the liberals used the opportunity to pass the "Brady Bill", which was a gun control bill). That concludes today's lesson on liberalism 101.
Trump is the best politician I've ever seen in the USA, he's not controlled by lobbies, he is honest, speaks common sense and is a proven leader who has accomplished things, unlike the establishment puppets.
Alex Boricua *I was being sarcastic when I wrote this lol* I was implying that if Trump won the election, he would want to rule like the dictator from North Korea.
Nothing better than a President who delivers the "what if" before finalizing decisions. Very compelling arguments why things in the Middle East are so jacked up. Brilliant Strategist and Game Changer! Kudos to President Trump.
I still dont like him but I'm proud he kept to his word and good strategy on this cuz now we are at near peace with North Korea and i believe trump pushing china and other countries to put santions on them had a lot to do with this near peace.
Trump in all honesty sounded extremely coherent and reasonable on foreign policy here, i cant really think of anything i disagree with in this interview, and it really does seem like he wants to go back to a semi non-interventionist approach to foriegn affairs as well, let the people in those regions deal with their problems its not our responsibility but if it helps us we should support them economically if it doesn't don't help them economically.
When we look at history, the greatest people or the greatest game changers were ridiculed and abused in the beginning but in the end the world realised that those people were absolutely right.Trump is one of those game changers, he will earn respect in the end, this man genuinely cares about America and the entire world in general, his ways may seem too extreme at times but it was about time that the world got a strict leader like him.
