Play this clip between 20 and 25%. Is that what you're tracking or what do you think the rate will be?

Donald Trump (5:46)

That they are going to pay 25%?

Advisor (5:49)

Yeah.

Journalist (5:49)

That India is preparing to pay, raise higher U.S. tariffs between 20 and 25%.

Donald Trump (5:53)

Look, India's been, they're my friends and he's my friend and you know, the end of the war with Pakistan by request and it was great. And Pakistan did also, you know, we did a lot of, a lot of great settlements, including the recent one as you know, with Cambodia, blah blah, blah. So that was a, that was a great. But I think that's been pretty well finalized now, right?

Journalist (6:18)

I don't know.

Donald Trump (6:18)

I'm asking you, did I do a good job on that one? I did a good job at about five different wars. Do you think I'll get credit for it? No. Will I get credit for. She'll say yes.

Journalist (6:31)

Is the deal with India finalized?

Donald Trump (6:34)

No, it's not.

Journalist (6:35)

Okay, so what rate are you expecting?

Donald Trump (6:37)

We're going to see. We're going to see. But India has been a good friend. But India has charged basically more tariffs than almost any other country. You know that, right? Over the years. But now I'm in charge and you just can't do that.

And here you have Treasury Secretary Scott Bess, and he's being asked, what about the Vietnam deal, the Indonesia deal? Do we have paperwork, Besson, for any of these deals? The Vietnamese government refuses to acknowledge that they even, they even did a deal with the United States. And you're out there bragging there was a deal with Vietnam. Did you do a deal? Did you not do a deal? And Scott Besant's like, well, you know, I think that our trade Minister, Richard Greer, I think that Ambassador Greer will keep it and he probably has the paperwork. No, there's no paperwork because these are all fake deals. There's no paperwork with Japan. There's no paperwork with the European Union. There's no paperwork with Vietnam or Indonesia. Donald Trump dropped blank pieces of paper and claimed that was the deal with the United Kingdom, which he thought was the European Union. But here's Treasury Secretary Scott Bessen. Play this clip.

Advisor (9:25)

These deals have been coming pretty fast and furious. At times it gets hard to track the details of them. The Vietnam deal that the president announced earlier in July, I don't think we've seen confirmation, or at least I haven't as I sit here now, from the Vietnamese government, government of that deal. Did we get confirmation from the Vietnamese government? Do we have an agreement with them on paper? I, I didn't work on that deal, but I, I assume that we, we do because, you know, we, we've also done Indonesia and Philippines. So I, I would imagine that. But you haven't seen that paperwork. I, I, but I don't. That's Ambassador Greer, who is a seasoned veteran with an encyclopedic memory and knowledge of all this, keeps all that.

And here's Donald Trump bragging, look, it's just him and Netanyahu. They're the ones choreographing all of this. He goes, he and Netanyahu are working together and he and Netanyahu are going to straighten out the world. Here's what he got, here's what he says. Play this clip.

News Anchor (10:20)

What will you say next to Benjamin Netanyahu?

Donald Trump (10:27)

Try and get things straightened out for the world.

Political Commentator (10:29)

Thank you very much. All right. Well, the rest of the world doesn't think that. You have the President of France, Emmanuel Macron, saying, consistent with its historic commitments to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognize the state of Palestine. I will make this solemn announcement before the United Nations General assembly this coming September. The urgent priority today is to end the war in Gaza and to bring relief to the civilian population. Peace is possible. We need an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages and, and a massive humanitarian aid for the people of Gaza. We must also ensure the, the demilitarization of Hamas, secure and rebuild Gaza. And finally, we must build the state of Palestine, guarantee its viability and ensure that by accepting its demilitarization and fully recognizing Israel and contributes to the security of all in the region. There is no, no alternative. Okay. And then yesterday, Prime Minister Kier Starmer of the United Kingdom says UK will recognize a Palestinian state unless Israel takes substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza. Here, play this clip.

Political Analyst (11:34)

I've always said that we will recognize a Palestinian state as a contribution to a proper peace process at the moment of maximum impact for the two state solution. With that solution now under threat, this is the moment to act. So today, as part of this process towards peace. I can confirm the UK will recognize the state of Palestine by the United Nations General assembly in September unless the Israeli government takes substantive steps to end the appalling situation in Gaza, agree to a ceasefire agreement and commit to a long term sustainable peace, reviving the prospect of a two state solution. And this includes allowing the UN to restart the supply of aid and making clear that there will be no annexations in the West Bank.

And finally, if Donald Trump thinks he's being like tough around the world, let me explain to you what's happening in North Korea. Kim Jong Un's sister, Kim Yo Jong, she just gave, she just gave a speech where she said, look, yeah, sure, Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un get along just fine. But she said, you know, we demand immediate recognition of our nuclear capabilities from the United States. She goes, we want Trump to recognize us as a nuclear power. So, you know, it's not like he's making North Korea denuclearize. Here's, here's how CNN reported it. Let's play it.

News Anchor (13:06)

North Korea breaking its silence on Donald Trump the messenger. Not Kim Jong Un, but his powerful younger sister, Kim Yo Jong on the far right, believed to be in her late 30s. This Week in North Korean state media, she said her brother's relationship with President Trump is not bad. Signaling talks with the US could happen again, but only if the US Drops its demand for denuclearization and accepts North Korea as a nuclear power. Kim's sister also called South Korea the enemy, slamming their new president, Lee Jae Myung, rejecting any chance for dialogue.

Advisor (13:48)

She exuded confidence. She exuded arrogance, even.

News Anchor (13:54)

She's a major architect of her older brother's carefully choreographed image, like this recent meeting with Russia's foreign minister on one of Kim's yachts. She was also by his side when Kim met President Trump.

Political Analyst (14:07)

His sister, who is always around him.

News Anchor (14:10)

Kind of acts as his chief of staff and Kim's enforcer. When South Korean activists sent anti Kim leaflets North by balloon last year, she publicly defended flying trash filled balloons south, triggering cell phone alerts for millions. She also ordered the dramatic demolition of this border office shared with the South. Kim Yo Jong has been rising in power for years. Promoted to the Politburo, the senior body of North Korea's Communist Party, she represented her brother at the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea. Kim's sister is most known for her fiery rhetoric and fierce loyalty to her brother, one of the only people North Korea's most powerful person can trust.

And now, Donald Trump. What's, what's the latest? His new deadline for Putin. It was two weeks back in April, then 50 days two weeks ago, and then yesterday it was 10 days to 12 days, and now he's saying 10 days from today. He just makes up numbers. He just makes up days. Here, play this clip.

Journalist (15:16)

Mr. President, yesterday you mentioned that you would change the Russia deadline to 10 to 12 days. Is that, has that started yet or when can we, you know, see the official statement that that is the new.

Donald Trump (15:29)

I'll tell you what, I'll give it to you now. Do you want a big scoop?

Journalist (15:31)

Yes.

Donald Trump (15:32)

Everybody else, close your ears. Okay, you ready?

Journalist (15:35)

I'm ready.

Donald Trump (15:35)

Ten days from today.

Journalist (15:37)

Got it? Okay, got it.

Donald Trump (15:39)

How do you communicate we have a scoop and then, you know, we're going to put on tariffs and stuff. And I don't know if it's going to affect Russia because he wants to obviously probably keep the war going, but we're going to put on tariffs. The various things that you put on, it may or may not affect them, but it could.

Political Commentator (15:58)

So it's not surprising that you hear from President Zelinsky the following. Russia shows absolutely no regard for anyone in the world who wants to bring this war to an end. Just yesterday, there was a very necessary statement from President Trump. There was a lot of support around the world, but still strikes continue and even demonstrative killing of our people by Russians continues. Every such Russian strike, every act of Russian boorishness in response to the world's call to stop the world only proves one thing. Pressure is necessary. More sanctions against Russia, steady support for Ukraine and our defensive life. Coordinated diplomacy for peace. I think everyone who's working with us exactly this way. There you have it, folks. World leaders are furious at Donald Trump. His weakness is showing. You have, like, North Korea flexing its muscle. Putin is undeterred. You have Donald Trump attacking, like, you know, India, supporting Pakistan because they bought his bitcoin and inviting the Pakistani general to basically be in the Oval Office. Donald Trump snubbing world leaders at the G7 after, like, leaving, being there for five or six hours. It's just a very weak, sheepish, bizarre weirdo, you know, United States of America. Just strange to see. Anyway, hit subscribe. Let's get to 6 million. Thanks for watching.
