US President Donald Trump in an interview with NBC News has been asked if he should respect the constitution, to which he replied: “I don't know”. He also announced that he would not seek another term.

Interview with the president USA Donald Trump for NBC News will be broadcast on Sunday, but television has previously published its short fragment.

Trump about migrants, constitution and Greenland

Trump emphasized that he would continue to spend immigrants from the country and cannot imagine that the courts will be allowed to hear “millions of cases” of such people, and he needs a full mandate to quickly get rid of people who are “murderers and drug dealers” from the country. – I was chosen to hell to make them from here, and the courts make it difficult for me to do it – said the president.

Asked if in this situation he was still obliged to comply with the constitution, he said that he did not know, and added that “brilliant lawyers work for him, who of course would adapt to the opinion of the Supreme Court.”

Trump again did not rule out the use of force to appropriate Greenland, but estimated that he was “highly unbelievable” so that he had to escape in case of it Canadawhich, according to him, should become the 51st US state. It would be “a state that we would love very much” – added the president, who is to soon meet with the new Canadian Prime Minister Marek Carney.

Who's successor Trump?

Trump assured that “he doesn't think about it” to strive for another term. He added that, according to his knowledge, this cannot be done (the American constitution prohibits that one person would hold the office of the president more than twice). Although he refused to answer the question, who in his opinion should take over his succession, he said: “JD does a fantastic job”, and as a vice president he would have a facilitated start in the election. But he also mentioned that Marco Rubio “is great”.

“WP” emphasizes that the quotations of the Secretary of State in the immediate vicinity of the president have increased impressively and he became a “key connector” with the president for people striving for Trump's attention.

The media write that Rubio has become one of Trump's most trusted people and holds four functions: US Secretary of State, security advisor, to the head of state archives and USAID administrator. “New York Times” called him “the minister of everything”, who “probably broke the record of the number of government functions held in modern US history.”

At the end of the interview, in which he raised a lot of topics, the president rejected the suggestion that “introduces the country to the path of authoritarian rule”, and said: “Many people love Trump. I won the election.”
