On Tuesday, President-Elect Donald Trump held a press conference with reporters (I think Joe Biden is still president but I never see him so I can’t be sure).
Trump fielded questions about his foreign policy and it was better than primetime TV.
Here’s a preview:
“Mr. President, would you please outline our entire military playbook for our fiercest enemies?”

Bruh! 😂
Next, the failing fake news asked Trump if he would pinky promise not to go acquiring land in America’s interests.
Reporter: Can you assure the world that as you try to get control of Greenland and the Panama Canal, that you won't use military or economic coercion?
Trump: "No." pic.twitter.com/JlvCxi9jtQ

Sometimes the simple answers are the best.
Trump also unveiled his “beautiful” new name for the Gulf of Mexico:
The Gulf of America, what a beautiful name.
JUST IN: Donald Trump announces that he will be changing the name of the 'Gulf of Mexico' to the 'Gulf of America.'
Yes 🔥
Trump said he thinks the new name will have a "beautiful ring" to it.

Does he mean we’re actually going to change the maps, or just that we’re going to be reasserting American dominance in the Caribbean and Central/South America?
I don’t know … BUT SOMEWHERE AN EAGLE IS CRYING TEARS OF JOY RIGHT NOW.
Trump also addressed the hostage situation in Israel, where Hamas continues to hold Israelis, Americans, and others after its deadly terror attack on October 7th, 2023. Joe Biden has promised he’s working on it and nothing has happened.
Trump has a different approach.

Then, Emirati businessman Hussain Sajwani announced a $20 billion investment into U.S. data centers across the country.

Trump also talked about exporting illegal aliens, bringing down energy prices, and reforming elections so Americans know the results before they go to bed (which used to be the norm).
The fake news circus tried to dunk on Trump multiple times, but it didn’t go well for them.
REPORTER: Will you pardon anyone who attacked an officer on Jan. 6th, 2021?
TRUMP: Well, the only one who was k*lled was a young lady. Her name was Ashli Babbitt. Plus – there were never charges of insurrection. And if there were, this would be the only instance of insurrection… pic.twitter.com/f1TqoN4dwg

🚨 NOW: The legacy media just tried and failed (again) to drive a wedge between President Trump and Elon Musk
REPORTER: Elon Musk is drawing criticism for some of his statements about foreign affairs in Europe. Is that appropriate?
TRUMP: You mean where he likes people that… pic.twitter.com/5ZPWSVjWeE
