Unknown Reporter: MR. PRESIDENT TRUMP, YOU HAVE CALLED THE DEAL WITH UKRAINE HISTORICAL. AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES, YOU MAKE HISTORICAL DECISIONS WHICH AFFECT AMERICA AND THE REST OF THE WORLD. WHAT PLACE IN WORLD HISTORY DO YOU WANT TO TAKE? DO YOU ASSOCIATE YOURSELF WITH ANY FAMOUS HISTORICAL LEADERS?
Trump: I would say George Washington, Abraham Lincoln. I would say I am far superior to George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. You know I'm only kidding, right? When I say that, the fake news will go wild. "He considers himself to be be better than Washington." I do not compare myself to anybody. I am here to do a job. We have had a great 35 days. We have accomplished tremendous amounts. This would be a very great achievement if we can get the war stopped and get them back to normalization. I think that will happen. We have had very good talks on both sides. I think we have done a good job generally, if you look at all of the things we have done in 30 days. They said there has never been an opening for a president, there has never been a first month like we have had.
This is one of the very important things. This is one of the most important things. We have tremendous death taking place as we speak and I do not want to have that. Think of the parents, whether they are in Russia or Ukraine. Think of the parents of the people being killed needlessly. I should have never started. If I were president, this would have never started.
This is just a distraction, ignore this one.
