Really what the interview reflected is the degree to which the administration remains uncertain about what the next few weeks will hold.
And it comes at a time in which the entire world is really watching the Trump administration, the conflict in the Middle East, and wondering if this will expand into a broader conflict and what steps President Trump will take after launching this extraordinary action.
I'm Zolan Kano-Youngs.
I'm a White House correspondent.
Any minute now, I'll be heading to Davos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum.
The forum is a gathering of some of the world's wealthiest and most powerful leaders, but all eyes will be on President Trump as he is expected to give a keynote address amid very deep concerns over the future of the transatlantic alliance.
What normally would have been a brainstorming session amongst the world's elites has turned into this all-hands emergency effort to de-escalate tension with an emboldened American president.
That's because of President Trump's lashing out at European leaders as well as his threats to take over Greenland.
You know, I've been talking to foreign policy analysts who say that this period is different, right?
Yes, President Trump is known for disrupting global summits and, you know, brushing aside allies that make up the current global order.
But these threats of a takeover of Greenland really have foreign policy analysts questioning this.
whether or not the nearly 80-year-old alliance between the U.S.
and European nations may be at risk.

This lag in the pace of deportations has already caused concern, even frustration, among some of President Trump's top immigration advisors.
Our reporting has found that Tom Homan, the czar of this deportation effort, and Stephen Beller, the architect of Trump's immigration agenda, are meeting each morning, sometimes in their office in the White House, sometimes in the Situation Room, and are studying these numbers, deportations, detentions, trying to strategize on ways to ramp up these deportation numbers.
We've discovered what some of these proposals are. DHS has gone to the IRS and asked them to turn over addresses of hundreds of thousands of people it wants to deport. At this point, it does not seem the IRS has agreed to that request. And then also the administration is considering reinstating the practice of detaining immigrant families.
That's a tactic that came under fire because of concerns around detaining particularly immigrant children and the conditions of some of those facilities. All of these are measures not just to ramp up deportations, but in some case, create an environment that's so uncomfortable that immigrants decide to self-deport.
And it's also a sign of sort of a sense of urgency, the sense of, you know, some might even say desperation on this administration to get these numbers up.
Oh.
And there's only so many ways that you can actually reach those cuts. And for a program like Medicaid, right, and just as a reminder, this is the government program providing health insurance for low-income Americans. Bless you for explaining that. That's now a program that could be on the chopping block here in this saga.
