'I run US and the world': Donald Trump says his second term is very different from 1st

Donald Trump says in his second term, he runs the world apart from the US.
President Donald Trump said his second term is different from the first one, as now he has both the country and the world to run. "The first time, I had two things to do -- run the country and survive; I had all these crroked guys," he said in an interview with published Monday. "And the second time, I run the country and the world," he added. "I'm having a lot of fun, considering what I do ... You know, what I do is such serious stuff."
The interview comes as Trump is going to complete the first 100 days in his second term -- with his approval ratings falling abysmally. After he gave an interview to TIME, he agreed to sit down with The Atlantic which exposed the major SignalGate of his defence department -- that his defense secretary leaked the Yemen war plan on a Signal group which had Atlantic journalist, editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg. Goldberg was also present during the interview.
"I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it's possible for The Atlantic to be 'truthful,'" Trump said in a Truth Social post last week ahead of the sitdown.

On the Democratic Party


“I think that the Democrats have lost their confidence in the truest sense,” Trump said. “I don’t think they know what they’re doing. I think they have no leader.
