"For instance, we're stocked and locked and loaded right now. We have more than double what we had when this started…What happened is Biden came in like a stupid fool and he gave a lot of what we had to Ukraine. $350 billion they spent. We don't do that. Everyone has to pay."
Later: "The blockade has been unbelievable. Powerful, 100%. It's been actually unbelievable. If we left right now, we had a great victory but we're not doing that. We're negotiating with them. Their teams are unbelievably disjointed but we are negotiating."
GAS PRICES
"When the war ends, gasoline prices are going to tumble because there is so much right now on the sea, already loaded into tankers. Tankers that can't escape the strait. There is so much, like record-setting, but when the war ends, gasoline prices will go down to below what they were before."
PERSONAL SECURITY
Peter Doocy of Fox News said: "This is going to be your first big public event since somebody tried to kill you on Saturday. Do you feel safe going to something like this today?
POTUS stretched his right hand towards Doocy and said: "I don't even think about it, Peter."
STATE VISIT BY BRITAIN'S KING CHARLES III

I love the job he did in Congress. He actually got the Democrats to stand. He's a wonderful person, she's a wonderful lady, a wonderful queen, and we had a good time."
BASEBALL PLAYER PETE ROSE
"I think Pete Rose should have been in the baseball hall of fame a long time ago, a long time ago, before his death. I think baseball did a great disservice by not respecting his achievements on the field. He was a great player. I knew him well. He was a great player."
UFC FIGHT AT WHITE HOUSE
"We'll have some of the greatest champions in the world. The arena, they're going to start building it over the next week. It's right here and it'll be about 5,000 seats. They'll have 100,000 people down by the Ellipse with screens and it's all free."
