00:00Do you have second thoughts about educating the world?

00:02I have second thoughts about everything.

00:18He didn't exactly hear the question.

00:20Actually, what he was intending to say is

00:23he always has second thoughts.

00:25We're getting really bad dudes out of this country

00:33and at a rate that nobody's ever seen before.

00:37And they're the bad ones.

00:39And it's a military operation.

00:41The president was using that as an adjective.

00:43It's happening with precision

00:45and in a manner in which it's being done very, very clearly.

00:48Please don't be too nice.

00:51Like when you guys put somebody in the car

00:54and you're protecting their head, you know?

00:56The way you put their hand over...

00:58Like, don't hit their head

01:00and they've just killed somebody.

01:02Don't hit their head.

01:03I said, you can take the hand away, okay?

01:05Was the president joking when he said this?

01:07I believe he was making a joke at the time.

01:09These are absolute animals.

01:11These aren't human beings. These are animals.

01:13What did the president mean when he said

01:15some immigrants are not people, they're animals?

01:17The president was very clearly referring to

01:20MS-13 gang members who enter the country

01:23illegally.

01:33We're talking about national security.

01:35This should have been done

01:37by all of the presidents that preceded me

01:39and they all know it.

01:41Some of them have told me.

01:42I know I've seen clips of previous presidents

01:45talking about the importance of border security.

01:53The mancoats came to me and some others.

01:55They said they think it's Russia.

01:57I have President Putin.

02:00He just said it's not Russia.

02:02I will say this.

02:03I don't see any reason why it would be.

02:05I said the word would instead of wouldn't.

02:08The sentence should have been

02:10I don't see any reason why I wouldn't

02:13or why it wouldn't be Russia.

02:15So, just to repeat it,

02:18I said the word would instead of wouldn't.
