But think of it, a modestly successful comedian, President Zelensky talked the United States of America into spending $350 billion to go into a war that basically couldn't be won, that never had to start and never would have started if I was president. Not even a chance. And it didn't start for four years. Never would have started. But a war that he, without the US and Trump, will never be able to settle. They'll never settle that war without our involvement. That's why they did such a great job this weekend. That's why Saudi Arabia did such a great job this weekend in hosting. The United States has spent $200 billion more than Europe, and Europe's money is guaranteed. They get their money back. It's a form of a loan. Nobody knows that. I know that. I said, "Why isn't somebody saying, "you know, we do it the same way "and we spent much more money? "We have to equalize." But while the United States gets nothing back, so they get their money back. It's a loan. We just give our money. And we had a deal based on rare earth and things, but they broke that deal. But they broke it two days ago. We had a deal because I said, "We're spending $350 billion." And Europe gets their money back in the form of a loan, and we don't. We're just giving the money hand over fist. That's the Biden administration for you. But they're no longer dealing with the same United States as they were dealing with a few months ago. Why didn't Crooked Joe Biden demand equalization? And that this war is far more important to Europe than it is to us, and that there's a very big, beautiful ocean of separation. This is, you know, we're helping Europe. We're trying to help Europe. On top of this, Zelensky admits that half of the money that we sent them is missing. They don't know where the money is. He said, "Well, we don't know where half of it is." That's great, wonderful. He refuses to have elections. It's low in the real Ukrainian polls. I mean, how can you be high? Every city is being demolished. It's hard to be high. Somebody said, "Oh, no, his polls are good. Give me a break." Every city is being demolished. They look like a demolition site, every single one of them. And the only thing he was really good at was playing Joe Biden like a fiddle. He played him like a fiddle. That's an expression we use, yes, sir, to say that he's pretty easy, pretty easy. A dictator without elections. Zelensky better move faster. He's not going to have a country left. Gotta move, gotta move fast, 'cause that war's going in the wrong direction. In the meantime, we're successfully negotiating an end to the war with Russia. Something all admit that only Trump is gonna be able to do in the Trump administration. We're gonna be able to do it. I think Putin even admitted that Biden never tried. Europe has failed to bring peace, and Zelensky probably wants to, maybe wants to keep the gravy train going. I don't know what's the problem, but he hasn't been able. He's very upset that he wasn't invited. He could've come if he wanted to, but that he wasn't invited to Saudi Arabia. But he's been working for three years. There's never been even meetings or phone calls to stop this war. It's a horrible thing. I figure Russia's lost 900,000 soldiers. I think that Ukraine's lost probably 700,000. And it's a terrible thing. You'll see body parts, bodies and body parts all over the field, all over. We see 'em through, very accurately, through satellites. I love Ukraine, but Zelensky has done a terrible job. His country is shattered, and millions and millions of people have unnecessarily died. And you can't bring a war to an end if you don't talk to both sides. You gotta talk, they haven't been talking for three years. So we hope to see a ceasefire soon and to reestablish stability in Europe and the Middle East. (audience applauding)

Today I am also announcing that as part of our tax cuts, we will make interest on car loans fully deductible. So a man who's, a lot of you people are in the car industry, actually I made a lot of them backstage. What do you do? I'm in the car industry. But a lot of them, and I told him about a very knowledgeable person. He said, here's a guy, he's done it all his life, he's sitting right over there, I don't want to embarrass him. But he said, where did you come up with that idea? That's the coolest thing. It's like the paperclip again, right? It's like the paperclip. Somebody comes up with the paperclip and everybody says, why the hell didn't I think of that? Somebody came up with the paperclip, I guess made a lot of money, and other people said, why? But he said, I've been in the car industry all my life, I've never thought about that. So we're going to make it fully deductible, the interest payments, that's going to revolutionize your industry. This will stimulate massive domestic auto production, and make car ownership dramatically more affordable for millions and millions of working American families. This is a phenomenal thing. If I do say so myself. Who likes that idea? Isn't that great?
