Travel Pool Report #12 Trump Q&A Part 2 // Fin

Q: Is the Nippon deal finalized?

"No, I have to approve the final deal."

Q: How will it stay in U.S. ownership?

"Well you'll see but I have to approve the final deal with Nippon and we haven't seen that final deal yet. But they've made a very big commitment. And it's a very big investment. It's the largest investment in the history of Pennsylvania in any deal, not just steel..."

Q: Do you support the Lindsey Graham/Blumenthal bill that would levy sanctions on Russia?

"I don't know. I have to see it. We'll take a look at it."

Q: Are you confident that your proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza that was just submitted this week will get approved by Hamas?

"I think they want to, they want to get out of that mess. They're in a big mess. I think they want to get out of it."

Q: Can we anticipate any trade deals next week? And does this deal today with Nippon help your overall talks with Japan?

"Well Japan very much wants to make a trade deal, I don't think this has much to do with it but it certainly won't hurt... I think the deal I'm most proud of is the fact that we're dealing with India, we're dealing with Pakistan and we were able to stop potentially a nuclear war through trade, as opposed to bullets. Normally they do it through bullets. We do it through trade. So I'm very proud of that. Nobody talks about it but we had a very nasty potential war going on between Pakistan and India. And now if you look they're doing fine."

Trump noted Pakistan representatives are coming to Washington next week and the administration is very close to making a deal with India.

"I wouldn't have any interest in making a deal with either if they were going to war with each other," Trump said.

Trump was asked for his message for the G7 in a couple weeks

"Well, it's in Canada and he's a very nice guy by the way, Mark Carney, I think he's a very nice guy. And we had some good talks. We'll see what happens.

Q: There's reports that Susie Wiles's phone was breached and someone is impersonating her.

"I heard that, yeah."

Q: Are you concerned about that?

"No, she's an amazing woman. She can handle it. But I've heard they breached her phone and tried to impersonate her. Nobody can impersonate Susie. There's only one Susie."

Q: What's your message to Chinese college students in the United States that want to stay in the United States and don't want their visa revoked?

"They're going to be okay. It's going to work out fine. We just want to check out the individual students. We have to and that's true with all colleges," Trump said.

He then criticized Harvard for allegedly not providing the government with enough information.

"We want people that can love our country and take care of our country and cherish our country and for some reason Harvard doesn't want to give us a list," Trump said.

That's it for me, thanks all. Have a great night.
