Trump remarked on potential ground operations against drug cartels in Mexico during the interview.

Amid the chatter, one social media user offered crucial perspective: “Reminder that Trump was ill enough from COVID to be hospitalized in a very serious condition in 2021. The permanent damage from COVID is real. Long COVID is a thing. Trump is human and not immune to human conditions. Only Trump thinks he’s eternal.”

A sharp observer commented, “Everyone is trying to decipher what Trump meant when he said the only thing that could stop him was his own morality, but I think he meant mortality. He’s afraid of dying because he knows his health is failing.” Speculation surfaced that Trump might have mistakenly used "morality" instead of “mortality,” tapping into a sentiment that resonated with many viewers.

At 70, Trump appears increasingly preoccupied with his legacy, power and ability to keep going. Conversations surrounding Venezuela, Greenland and international law echoed with urgency, suggesting immediate decisions needed to be made.

In a classic display, Trump’s declarations provided a bold perspective, even as they troubled lawmakers across party lines. “I don’t need international law. I’m not looking to hurt people,” he asserted, hinting at a potential U.S. takeover of Venezuela and reviving his ambition to acquire Greenland, deeming it "psychologically needed for success" and vital to national security.
