According to the former president, Europe needs to support Ukraine more in the war, which he said he could end in 24 hours.
Former President of the United States Donald Trump repeated CNN (you will switch to another service) in the interview again countless times his baseless election fraud allegations, according to which he was stolen from the victory of the 2020 presidential election.
In addition, Trump said that he would be ready to pardon several people convicted of the 2021 congressional attack.
Trump also commented on the civil court verdict he received earlier this week, in which the jury found him guilty as a writer-journalist by E. Jean Carroll sexual abuse and defamation.
– This woman [E Jean Carroll], I do not know him. I’ve never met him. I have no idea who she is, said Trump and called the woman a wack job.
Trump was also asked whether he would continue to support Ukraine if he was elected president in 2024. The former president did not directly answer the question, but insisted that Europe must support Ukraine more. Trump added that if he were president, the war in Ukraine would be over in 24 hours. He declined to say whether he wants Ukraine to win the war.
Biden: You want four more years of this?
Host of the event Kaitlan Collins also asked the ex-president for his position on whether a national ban on abortion should be introduced in the United States and at what stage of pregnancy abortion is illegal, according to him. Trump sidestepped the question and did not give a clear answer, instead saying that he would “negotiate the issue”.
Incumbent president Joe Biden recently published an election ad on Twitter after an interview with Trump, the center of which was the question: “Do you want four more years of this?”
Trump appeared on CNN for the first time since 2016. He did not give a single interview to CNN reporters while he was president.
According to various opinion polls, Trump is the clear favorite for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024.
