Former President Donald Trump expressed that he did not find America’s situation humorous during an interview on Fox News that aired on Wednesday. Trump conversed with Fox News host Laura Ingraham following a live town hall on Tuesday, addressing various topics such as his response to criticism from the corporate media and Democrats. Ingraham acknowledged Trump’s sense of humor and inquired whether it would be evident during his campaign trail.
“We have a country that’s dying,” Trump responded. “We have a country that’s – it’s a failing nation. I say it in my speeches, it’s a failing nation. We have a nation in decline. We are a nation in decline. I just don’t think it’s a subject that we are smiling too much about. When I see 18 million by the time he leaves, I think that’s going to be the number, 18 million people coming in from places unknown.”
“We have no idea who they are, but they are terrorists. We are going to have massive terrorism. We are going to have a big problem with terrorists, we’re going to have a lot of problems and especially the bad ones and remember what I said, the local police force,” Trump continued. “You have a great family right there, the Heinz family sitting in the front row. They lost their daughter to an illegal alien came in, and we threw him out and he was gone and he came back in and their daughter was killed by illegal immigrant that came in during the Biden Administration. So sad.”
“So, I just don’t see that much humor in what we’re doing. This is a very serious charge and this is a very serious thing I’m doing and I don’t want to be,” Trump told Ingraham. “You know, if I start talking with a smile, they will say he smiled because the fake news is just terrible: He smiled, what was he smiling about, and I don’t really want to smile. I want to smile when we complete the task and make America great again.”
