Trump WARNS Venezuela Not to Fly Jets Over US Naval Vessels: 'They'll be shot down'
New York Post
Venezuela, you've sent F-35s down to Puerto Rico, you've sent naval vessels into the Caribbean, you're concerned about drug drugs being illegally sent into the United States. How do you describe this build-up, this situation?
Well, I just think it's strong. We're strong on drugs. We don't want drugs killing our people. I believe we lost 300,000. You know, they always say 95,000, 100,000. I believe they've been saying that for 20 years. I believe we lost 300,000 people last year. I know families that lost their son. Those families will never be the same. I know a family lost a daughter, a beautiful daughter. In fact, it was like she took something that she
thought was like a minor deal, and it turned out to be riddled out with fentanyl, the size of the head of a pin, and you're dead. And no, we're stopping the drugs. We're going to save a lot of people. Look, whether it's 100,000, but it's not.
It's 300,000, 350,000 people died last year from drugs. And we're not going to let that happen to this country. Think of that. Think if you're in a war and you lose 300,000. We lost 600,000 in the Pretty much between Gettysburg and all of that the Civil War we lost what?
600,000 so we're losing half of that every year to drugs. We're not going to do it. We're not going to allow it to happen
You think of the wars if we lost? But we lose we lose that every two years, more than that. So it's 300,000 to 350,000 people. And when I see boats coming in, like, loaded up the other day with all sorts of drugs, probably fentanyl mostly, but all sorts of drugs, we're going to take them out. And if people want to have fun going on the high seas or the low seas, they're going to take them out. And if people want to have fun going on the high seas
or the low seas, they're going to be in trouble. I will tell you, boat traffic is substantially down in the area that happened. And they called it the runway. It's a runway to the United States. And boat traffic is very substantially down on the runway.
You can imagine why. I think anybody that saw that is going to say, I'll take a pass. I don't even know about fishermen. They may say, I'm not getting on the boat. I'm not going to take a chance.
The Press What happens if Venezuela flies jets over U.S. naval vessels again?
The President Well, I would say they're going to be in trouble. We'll let them know about that. But it wasn't really over not like they described But I would say general if they do that you have a choice of doing anything you want Okay, if they fly in a dangerous position, I would say that you can You or your captains can make the decision as to what they want to do
Say it
Well, I don't want to talk about that. But if they do put us in a dangerous position, they'll be shut down. Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you very much, everybody. So, we're going to now cover the G20.
