Overview
- In a one-on-one interview with CBS Evening News anchor Tony Dokoupil at a Ford factory in Dearborn, Michigan, President Trump laid out his views on executive power and foreign policy.
- Trump said his authority is constrained by his own morality and asserted, "we'll never get to the courts" or the Constitution as practical limits on his actions.
- He warned the United States would take "very strong action" if Iran begins hanging protesters, without specifying what measures might follow.
- He criticized Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell as "either corrupt or incompetent" after Powell disclosed Justice Department subpoenas tied to a Fed headquarters renovation, adding, "I can't help what it looks like."
- Addressing the ICE shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, Trump told her father he "love[s] all of our people" and said the video "can be viewed two ways" while defending the difficult work of ICE officers.
