KUNINGA KÕNE. AASTA HILJEM. VOL 2

 SISSEKANNE # 388









Donald Trumpil sai ümber esimene aasta presidendina, st oli Trump 2.0 installeerimise esimene aastapäev. Kusagil aasta eest kirjutasin minagi oma blogis, et nüüd tasub rihmad kõvasti kinnitada, sest algab enneolematu atraktsioon, sõit Ameerika mägedel. No ja tõesti, on see alles sõit olnud vedurijuht Donaldi juhtimisel!

Aasta jooksul on ta suutnud maailmakorda, õieti sellest arusaamise paradigmat kõvasti kõigutada. Ameerika ei olegi meie usaldusväärne sõber, ei ole enam kindel linn ja varjupaik, role model, vaid on pesueht trikster, karikatuurne Onu Säm, nn Talking Orange (üks Trumpi heiterite sarkasmist sündinud hüüdnimi). 

Aasta jooksul on Trump mänginud tariifidega, ehitanud sisemisi ja välimisi müüre, teinud ICE „suureks“, viinud alla munade ja bensiini hinnad,  päästnud paljusid elusid, võidelnud võukismi vastu ja nende vastikute demokraatidega… ja üldse teinud muud mustmiljon imetegu, millest aga rääkida ei taheta. Inimesed loevad peavoolumeedia valeuudiseid, on nende mõjusfääris ning saboteerivad Ameerika suurekstegemise püha üritust. „Nad ei täna mind kunagi, aga ma olen sellega harjunud…“

Rahvas ei mõista? Trump tegi harukordse möönduse: „Võib-olla me oleme end halvasti kommunikeerinud?“ Valge Maja pressiśeff Karoline Leavitt istus sealsamas toolil. See oli väike torge tema kapsaaeda.

Trump pidas Valges Majas aastakõne, mis üllatas sellega, et ta millegagi ei üllatanud. Stabiilne geenius, eksole. Kõik Trumpile iseloomulikud manerismid ja elemendid olid kõik prožektorite vihus suurelt esiplaanil. Igaüks sai midagi. Hardcore trumpist saab öelda, et vaat kus ta alles lajatas lurjustele  – talle omaselt. Trumpi kriitikud said lõuatäie naerda. Satiirikud, parodistid ja meemimeistrid said hulgaliselt uut materjali, millega nüüd lähipäevil kogu meedia üle ujutada. Noh, seegi hea. Ausalt öeldes, Bideni going-nowhere-juttu poleks ka viitsinud kuulata. Trump toidab vähemalt naljasoont. Mäletavasti õitses hea huumor ka Breźnevi seisakuaja viljastavais tingimustes. Odessa satiirikud Arkadi Raikin ja Mihhail Zvanetski ehitasid terve karjääri kommunaalhuumorile üles, mis meieni jõudis Eino Baskini vahendusel – see oli kuldaeg. Praegu teevad Trumpi totruste najal ilma koomikud Jimmy Fallon ja Jimmy Kimmel. Nalja kui palju – materjal kirjutab end lausa ise kokku. Aga parafraseerides JD Vance’i: Have you ever thanked once?

Vaatasin Valge Maja stand-up’pi  ja mõned lõigud olid tõesti naljakad ja mõned tragikoomilised. Alguseks demonstreeris Trump nn Saavutuste Raamatut (Book of Accomplishments), mis ju mitte vähem oluline pole kui Apostlite Teod. Mahult oli küll sama mõõtu. Trump siiski näitas üles mõistlikkust ega kukkunud seda ette lugema („Lehekülg lehekülje järel, mida me oleme teinud… Võiksin siin seista ja nädalate kaupa seda ette lugeda ja ei jõuakski lõpule, aga me oleme teinud rohkem kui ükski teine administratsioon.“).

Aga see-eest näitas ta Minnesota mõrtsukate pilte (vicious people, worst of the worst) ja küsis: „Kas te tahate elada koos nende inimestega?“  (HELL NO!!) „Saatsime nad tagasi sinna, kust nad tulid, need riigid austavad meid – nad panid need inimesed vangi. Varem nad meid ei austanud. Biden poleks seda teinud.“ (YOU BET!) „Kõik nad lubati siia avatud piiride poliitikaga, mida ajas Ameerika Ühendriikide ajaloo halvim president, mees, kes ei võitnud valimisi. Kõik teavad seda nüüd.“)

Nii ta kõneles:

  • But to me, having an open border for the world to come in, drug dealers and prisoners. Venezuela, as an example, opened their prisons into the United States. That's why one of the reasons I felt so strongly against Venezuela. Now, I'm loving Venezuela. They've been working with us so well. It's been so nice.
  • When the woman was shot, and I felt terribly about that. And I understand both sides of it. But when she was shot, there was another woman that was screaming, "Shame. Shame, shame, shame," right? You saw it, so loud. Like a professional opera singer. She was so loud and so professional. She wasn't a woman that was hurt like "Oh, my heart's injured." She was a professional. Shame, shame. She's screaming. Shame. I said, That's not a normal person. That's a professional. These are professional agitators and professional people that want to see our country do badly.
  • Why do we allow them in our country? I'm just looking at these charges. It's just pretty incredible. Many murderers. Many, many murderers. People that murdered. So what ICE does, and Border Patrol is incredible too.
  • All allowed in here by an open border policy of the worst president in the history of our country. A man that didn't win the election, by the way, got a rigged election. Everybody knows that now.
  • Here's the book on accomplishments and this is something... I'm glad my finger wasn't in that sucker. They could have done some damage, but you know what? I wouldn't have shown the pain. I would have gone back. Wait, did you hear that? That was nasty. But I would not have shown the pain. I would have acted like nothing happened as my finger fell off. That was nasty. I think somebody did that. I think it was him. It was my man. How were you? You didn't do it. I know you did. I know you didn't. But here's the book. These are all things we have. … I'm going to read a few of the samples, but look at this. Each line is something that we did. Nobody did that before. And it's big stuff too.
  • And by the way, no inflation. So everyone said, "Oh, tariffs will cause inflation." We have no inflation. We have very little inflation. Biden had inflation and he didn't do tariffs. We had a huge problem. We have a 62% reduction in our trade deficit. So, if you had a 1% reduction, a normal president would have a 1%, 2% reduction, everybody would be high-fiving. I had a 62% reduction, next year, we won't have a trade deficit. We secured most favored nations agreements to slash drug prices by as... To me, I think this might be the biggest thing of all, we get zero talk about it. The New York Times had a story way in the back of the paper, a little story about it.
  • We signed one big, beautiful bill, I call it the great, big, beautiful bill, delivering the largest tax cuts in history. No tax on tips, no tax on social security, no tax on overtime. We made interest on car loans tax deductible for US-built automobiles only. So, if you buy an automobile built in the United States, we're not doing it for Germany and Canada, and different places,. We're doing it only if it's built here. We want them to be built here. A lot of the Canadian auto plants are closing and they're moving into the United States. Same thing with Mexico, same thing with Germany, and same thing with Japan and other countries, they're moving into the United States because of tariffs, because they don't want to pay the tariffs. It's too much. They can't pay the tariffs, so they're coming here. Nothing different than what other smart countries did, but it works better for us.
  • Under my leadership, it's not done properly, but it's done properly. We have, again, more plants being built than at any time in the history of our country, passed the largest spending cuts in American history. And that was true in my first... We had a tremendous first term also. We rebuilt our military. We had one of the best. We had the best economy in the history of our country, but we're blowing it away now.
  • We have a lot of mentally insane killers. I mean, you can't even talk to them. It'd be nice if you could have a little reason, but you can't even reason. These are seriously ill people. You have a couple of countries where they were loaded up, their mental institutions and insane asylums were loaded to the gills, they couldn't get... They're empty now, but they're filling up because we're bringing them all back. We know where they came from. And every country accepts them. Under Biden, they wouldn't say... They had so little respect that they'd bring them there and they wouldn't take them. They say, "Get the hell out of here." They would be bringing a plane in to land in a country, and they'd put five planes on the runway so you couldn't land a plane. So, they'd come back with the people that they were bringing back. They don't do that with me. They do that with me they have problems. They don't do it. They accept them back. They're not happy about it, but they accept it back.
  • We inherited the worst border in history and turned it into the strongest border in history. /…/ For the first time in 50 years, we are now seeing reverse migration, because we're getting all of these illegal people out. People that came in illegally, in many cases they're criminals, in many, many cases. You remember when they used to say that the people that come into our country as immigrants are very nice people. They're wonderful people. They don't commit crime.
  • No, they make our criminals look like babies. They make our Hells Angels look like the sweetest people on earth. The Hells Angels are now considered a nice, high quality person. I like the Hells Angels, they voted for me. They protected me actually, believe it or not. But they make our criminals look like babies. These are some of the most vicious people anywhere in the world. They came from the Congo. The prisons, I know the Congo, because I ended the war with the Congo and Rwanda. Tough group. A very tough group. They came from prisons in the Congo, some of the toughest, meanest people you'll ever meet. Thank you very much, they allowed them to come into America. These are tough people. Before my election, 100% of net job creation was going to foreign migrants. Since my inauguration, 100% of the net jobs created have gone to American-born citizens. That's a big thing.
  • So when Somalia, the Somalians, you know what they're good at, that's about the only thing they're good at, is they're good at pirating ships at sea, big ships.
  • But they don't have to worry about it, because we hit them the same way we hit the people with the drugs on their boat. They don't know what the hell happened, but all of a sudden there are no pirates at sea. Do you notice, we haven't had a boat taken in a little while. Came out of Somalia, a really corrupt place. It's not a country. They don't have government, they don't have anything. I always hate to see this, Ilhan Omar, she comes from Somalia, a backward country, probably the worst country. They say it's the worst country in the world. If it's a country. I don't even think it's a country. There's no organization. They don't have police. They don't have military. They don't have anything, they just have people running around, killing each other, and trying to pirate ships. But she'll come here, comes, and then she wants to tell us how to run our country, "The Constitution says that I am entitled to this." I can't stand her.
  • Designated Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization and many others. It is. America is respected again on the world stage. That's another topic. Obliterated Iran's nuclear enrichment capability. And Operation Midnight Hammer was one of the most successful anyone's ever seen. CNN fake news. I don't know where they are. CNN? Anybody from CNN here? Fake news. Nobody wants to raise their hand anymore. Now if you're with CNN, you don't raise your hand. They said, "Well, maybe it wasn't that successful." Which I really was angry because these pilots took their life in their hands. Two o'clock in the morning with no moon, dead dark, guns shooting at them, they went in with those beautiful B2s and every single bomb went down an airshaft and obliterated it. And CNN came out and said, "Well, maybe it wasn't..." By a scam writer, a scam writer who wrote fake stories, a lot of fake stories on other topics.
  • It was like what we did with Venezuela. I mean, nobody's ever seen a military operation like that. Ended eight unendable wars in 10 months. These were unendable wars.
  • Armenia and Azerbaijan, President Putin told me, "I cannot believe you settled that war. I've been trying to settle that war for 10 years." Armenia and Azerbaijan, they were fighting it for many, many years. And I ended up getting the heads of the both countries in my office, the beautiful Oval Office, much more beautiful now than it ever was, and one sat on one side and one sat on the other said, "I've been the head of Azerbaijan for 22 years and for 22 years, I've been killing his people."
  • Terminated visas of Hamas sympathizers, and deported pro Jihad foreign nationals. Got NATO members to agree to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP from 2%. And they paid the 5% and they didn't pay the 2%. And by the way, I did more for NATO than any other person alive or dead.
  • Signed landmark critical minerals deals with Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, Ukraine, Japan, and many others. We're going to have so much rare earth. It's actually not that rare. Getting it processed is rare, but there's a lot of rare earth. There's a lot of earth around, I can tell you. Withdrew from the corrupt World Health Organization where we were paying hundreds of millions of dollars a year. So we were paying $500 million a year, and China was paying $37 million a year. I said, "Why aren't we paying the same as China?" They said, "Well, nobody asked." I said, "China's got 1.4 billion people. We have 350 million probably with all the illegals." China probably knows more accurately. But we have much smaller in terms of the number of people. We have a much more powerful military, but we have much smaller.
  • I rebuilt the military during my first term, by the way. And while they gave away a lot to Afghanistan, the Taliban, which was just horrible seeing them. Every year, seeing them do that military down some dirty street is a disgrace. But while Biden gave a lot of it away, it's a tiny fraction compared to what we did. I rebuilt the military and now we're continuing to build it and bigger and better. We needed peace through strength. But we withdrew from the corrupt World Health Organization.
  • And it's the same attitude that you have on everything else with these people. They were terrible. The anti-American UN Human Rights Council we ended, the UN Relief and Works Agency we ended, and the fake Paris Climate Accord, which was a rip-off of America, where we had to pay a trillion dollars and they were paying nothing.
  • We ended the woke lunacy and restored common sense, abolished all discriminatory diversity, equity and inclusion DEI policies throughout the federal government and the private sector. They're gone, everybody, they're gone. Terrible. Terminated the Green New Scam and ended the insane electric vehicle mandate. I love electric vehicles. That caused me a little problem with a man named Elon. But he understands and he's a good guy. We get along. But I said, "Elon, we can't have all electric cars. We just can't do it." I like the electric cars. I like his car, in particular, I like his car. But we can't do that because some people don't want an electric car by 2030.
  • The UN just hasn't been very helpful. I'm a big fan of the UN potential, but it has never lived up to its potential. The UN should have settled every one of the wars that I settled. I never went to them. I never even thought to go to them. They should be able to settle those wars. They don't. I believe you've got to let the UN continue, because the potential is so great.
  • I think I get along very well with them [Macron and Starmer]. They always treat me well. They get a little bit rough when I'm not around, but when I'm around, they treat me very nicely, and I like both of them. They're both liberal. They've got to straighten out their countries. London is having a lot of problems. And if you look at Paris, got a lot of problems. They have two problems, immigration and energy. They've got to stop with the windmills, and they've got to go back like... UK has an unbelievable asset called the North Sea. Norway uses it, makes a fortune. They have a better section of it, and they don't do it. They could straighten out their countries and it would be good, but I get along very well with them.
  • I believe very strongly that Norway controls the Nobel Prize. But you have to understand, I settled eight wars. I've had every one of those wars, every participant wrote, I didn't ask them to do it, they sent in, they make recommendations for that. But I settled eight wars. No president's probably ever settled one war. I don't know, if you think of it. I did eight. The reason I do it, is because it's easy for me to do. And I didn't do it for a Nobel Prize. I did it because I'm saving a lot of lives. I'm trying to settle the final one. I'm trying to do Russia-Ukraine. And when Russia's ready, Ukraine's not. When Ukraine's ready, Russia's not, but they're losing 25,000 people a month on average. And I'm trying to get that one done, but I feel that Norway has tremendous control over who gets the Nobel Prize, despite what they said.
  • So with Iran, they were going to hang 837 people, and we let them know that if that happens, that will be a very bad day for them. And they decided not to do it. They didn't hang the people. I can't tell you what's going to happen in the future, but supposedly they've taken that off the table. But last week they were going to hang, on Thursday or Wednesday. One, they were going to hang, I think, 837 people, and they didn't hang anybody. So we're just going to have to see what happens with Iran. Is the military option off the table? No.
  • So I think a lot of people are listening to the fake news a little bit, and I'm not blaming anybody. I blame ourselves. I think we've done a much better job than we're able to promote. We're not promoting. We're doing a great job, and we're letting the promotion take care of itself. One of the reasons I'm doing this news conference, I think it's important. We have taken a mess, and made it really good.
  • I think God is very proud of the job I've done. And that includes for religion. We're protecting a lot of people that are being killed, Christians, Jewish people, and lots of people are being protected by me, that wouldn't be protected by another type of president. No, I think a lot of people are very proud of the job we've done. We've had an amazing year. This has been one of the greatest years. Even some people that wouldn't necessarily love me instinctively, they're saying this was an incredible year.
  • NATO is so much stronger now. I don't agree with a lot of the things they've done, but that was done before I got there. I think NATO's been good. Sometimes it's overrated, sometimes it's not, but we have a strong NATO. When I came here, we had a weak NATO. We had a NATO at 2%, and they weren't paying. You had a nothing NATO. NATO's, whether you like it or not, it's only as good as we are. If NATO doesn't have us, NATO is not very strong.

Selline kõne ja pressikas siis esimeseks aastapäevaks. Jimmy Fallon ja Jimmy Kimmel, nagu ma ütlesin, saavad siit igaks õhtuks kõvasti materjali. Usun, et Trump on sellega arvestanud – any publicity is good publicity

Aga kui nüüd keegi küsiks, et härra president, mis te sellest arvate, vastaks ta umbes sedasi: „Most people want to make fun of me. It's a terrible thing. But they can do it. I could make a much better joke at my own expense, a lot of people have told me that. I could make a fortune doing it because my jokes are better than Jimmy Fallon's, who nobody wants to listen to. I am great impersonator of Trump myself, believe it or not.
