How did Trump admit his campaign was a lie?

Donald Trump 0:00
Starting the day I take the oath of office, I will rapidly drive prices down and we will make America affordable again. We're going to make it affordable again. And inflation is back. I'm only here for two and a half weeks. That was January.
Ben Meiselas 0:15
Inflation is back.
Donald Trump 0:16
No, think of it. Inflation's back. And they said, oh, Trump, I had nothing to do with it.
Ben Meiselas 0:21
It's not broken promises. It's outright fraud. All of the things that Donald Trump was saying on the campaign trail were lies. We were trying to warn you. Let me show you the admission that Donald Trump made last night on Hannity, where he said, folks, inflation is back. Here, play this clip.
Donald Trump 0:38
We inherited it. And inflation is back. I'm only here for two and a half weeks.
Ben Meiselas 0:43
Inflation is back.
Donald Trump 0:45
No, think of it. Inflation is back. And they said, oh, Trump, I had nothing to do with it. These people.
Ben Meiselas 0:50
Well, do you remember what he said on the campaign trail? As inflation was actually going down based on former President Biden's Inflation Reduction Act, the inflation being caused by Donald Trump adding $8 trillion to our national debt in his first administration. Here was the promise Trump made on the campaign trail. I have hundreds of clips like this. I'll just show one short clip here. Play this clip.
Donald Trump 1:15
So when I win, I will immediately bring prices down starting on day one. We will end Kamala's war on American energy and we will drill, baby, drill. We're going to drill...
Ben Meiselas 1:25
But then let's talk about what Donald Trump is trying to do to distract you, folks. He's getting rid of the penny. Ooh, the penny. He wants to get rid of that. That's what you get. No, goodbye, penny. Here, play this clip of Donald Trump's Treasury Secretary Scott Besant. And he knows, like, what am I even doing here? Here, play this clip. Tonight, finally, are you definitively getting rid of the penny?
Scott Besant 1:51
Brett, I've got to say that President Trump wants to make the penny extinct, and that's part of the cost savings, cost of it. Three cents to make one cent. Even in Washington, that math doesn't work. So it's going soon. It's going soon. Okay.
Ben Meiselas 2:10
All right. Let's go to other not broken promises, outright fraud. Remember Donald Trump's statements during the campaign that he was going to end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours, he said. He said 24 hours. after the election. He said he wouldn't even have to be sworn in. Remember what he said? Here, play this clip. You could end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours. Yes, I could.
Donald Trump 2:36
How would you do that? I know Zelenskyy very well. I'll end that war between those two countries in 24 hours.
Ben Meiselas 2:44
It won't even take that. Well, Donald, you now sent your secretary of state, Marco Rubio, to Saudi Arabia to meet with the Russian delegation led by Russia's foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, to, what, normalize United States-Russian relations as Russia's trying to destroy the United States of America, you idiot?

What was Trump's promise regarding inflation?

Ben Meiselas 3:06
And you were trying to sell out Ukraine and force Ukraine to capitulate without even any plan, without bringing Ukraine to the bargaining table, without bringing Europe to the table. That was your plan. And guess what? It wasn't resolved in 24 hours. When Donald Trump was vacationing in Mar-a-Lago yesterday, as he was playing golf yet again, here's what Donald Trump told the press about Ukraine. Play this clip. Yeah, please.
Reporter 3:35
Do you have any message for Ukrainians who, after three years of fighting, might feel betrayed or disappointed at not having a seat at these initial talks in Saudi Arabia?
Donald Trump 3:43
Well, I think I'm really disappointed in what's happened. I've been watching this for three years. It's a war that would have never happened if I was president. And I've been watching these, you know, people being killed at levels that you've rarely seen, not even close, since the Second World War. And I'm very disappointed. I hear that, you know, they're upset about not having a seat. Well, they've had a seat for three years and a long time before that. This could have been settled very easily. Just a half-baked negotiator could have settled this years ago without I think without the loss of much land, very little land, without the loss of any lives and without the loss of cities that are just laying on their side, you have those magnificent golden domes that are
