<\/p>\nRUSH: Here\u2019s Trump, by the way, taking a swipe at Hillary Clinton over NATO.<\/p>\n
THE PRESIDENT: NATO has taken in billions of dollars more because of me, because I said, “You\u2019re delinquent, you\u2019re not paying,” to many of the countries. Is that right, many of the countries weren\u2019t paying. And even now Germany is paying 1% and they\u2019re not even paying the full 1%. The United States is paying close to 4%, the United States, as you said, is paying 80% of the cost of NATO, do you think that\u2019s fair? With all of that being said, because of me, and you can speak to the head of NATO, Mr. Stoltenberg, he said that because of what I\u2019ve said to the countries, they\u2019ve taken in, General, I think you\u2019ll confirm this too, many billions of dollars more than they would have had if you had Crooked Hillary Clinton as president, okay? That I can tell you.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So here he is, he is sitting there with the leaders of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania talking about NATO and how most member nations are paying nowhere near their fair share of the dues and talking about how much less money these nations would have if Crooked Hillary had been elected, not Hillary Clinton, but Crooked Hillary. And this is the kind of stuff that the establishment, you can see them flinch. This just isn\u2019t done. You\u2019re not supposed to talk about presidential candidates and senators and first ladies, crooked, ew. We just don\u2019t talk that way, so unsophisticated, it\u2019s so coarse. And it just isn\u2019t done.<\/p>\n
And of course Trump does it. And by now it\u2019s obvious Trump does it on purpose. Just gets a big thrill out of tweaking.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: All right. This press conference is with the three leaders of Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania. So it\u2019s not a Trump standalone press conference. He\u2019s got these other three guys up there with him, and their media is there. So the Latvian, Estonian, Lithuanian media is gonna take their time asking questions of their leaders. So we\u2019re gonna roll audio on this. We\u2019re not gonna JIP this. I know when the domestic media gets their chance they\u2019ll zero in on the caravan and probably Stormy Daniels, who knows whatever else. I don\u2019t want to have to sit here and cover 20 minutes of this for three or four minutes of it that might be of any value. So we\u2019ll roll audio and any highlights we\u2019ll be sure and share \u2019em with you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
