Important statements from Trump's first Oval Office Interview

Important statements from Trump's first Oval Office Interview

In an interview with Fox News, which was broadcast on Wednesday, President Donald Trump said that he would not rule out his predecessor Joe Biden. This conversation took place with Sean Hannity, in which Trump also repeatedly criticized California governor Gavin Newsom and provided possible conditions for financial aid for the states plagued by the forest fire. In addition, he swore to punish cities that do not cooperate with his immigration policy.

Trump on bidens decisions

Trump criticized Biden's decision to pardon members of his own family and some other personalities that Trump has targeted. This includes members of the committee of inquiry of January 6 and Dr. Anthony Fauci. He noticed that it was a "sad thing" that bids did not pardon itself.

"And you know, the funny, maybe the sad thing is that he did not give himself a pardon," said Trump to Hannity. He further explained: "I lived through hell for four years, with this scum with which we had to do. I spent millions for lawyers and I won, but I did it on the hard tour. It is really difficult to say that they shouldn't go through all. So it is very difficult to say."

When asked whether he wants the congress to examine his predecessor, Trump replied: "I think we let the congress decide." When Hannity asked him whether he wanted the Attorney General Biden, Trump pointed out that he was also against an examination by Hillary Clinton, his rival from 2016.

FBI files for the JFK attack

Trump announced that he wanted to publish the FBI files about John F. Kennedy "immediately" after their review. On Hannity's demand as to whether he would release the files about the attack on Kennedy, Trump reminded that he had already published some of these files as President, but at that time was held by Foreign Minister Mike Pompeo to publish more information.

"I did it partly with Kennedy," said Trump. "But some of our government officials advised me not to do it. And you have to respect them." He promised to publish the files "immediately" as soon as he received the information.

statements about Tikkok and China

Trump wiped the concerns aside that TikK's data collection could put personal information from Americans in danger. He asked himself how important it was that China "spies on young people who watch the crazy videos". Hannity had pointed out the risks that are based on the Chinese parent company bytedance, which can be classified as a "spy app for the communist chinese" due to the requirements for data collection in China.

"But you could say that about everything that is being made in China. See, we have our phones mostly manufactured in China, there are so many things that are produced in China, so why is that not mentioned?" Added Trump.

Conditions for Federal Aid in California

Trump criticized Newsom's reaction to the devastating forest fires in California and demanded that the federal government should not provide the state as long as it does not change its water policy. In the discussion about the fires, Trump repeated his criticism of the handling of the forests of the state and blamed water policy for the tightening of the fires. He accused Newsoma of holding back water in the reservoirs in Northern California to protect an endangered fish species, the Delta melting.

"Today I will give an explanation, I think we shouldn't give California until they let the water flow," said Trump to Hannity. While California actually suffers from water shortages, experts have previously informed CNN that there is no basis for the assumption that the fires are related to the measures to protect the enamel.

These assessments and statements by Trump show how controversial is the political debate about bidges, the FBI files, China and the catastrophic forest fires in California. The various topics and the clear rhetoric of Trump want to draw the voters aware of his arguments.
