For that to happen, there can't be a war going on in the middle of it, and Hamas has to agree to turn them over and we have to have the right people go in and get them.

What you can't have and what we can't see and what we hope we will not see is that we get into these talks, and these talks are then delayed.

If there are five that are ready to go right now, they should be released right now.

What happens after that? And that is, how do we ensure that we can create a – and help build a Gaza free of terrorism, free of Hamas, free of anything like Hamas?

Hamas has – obviously, look, we're dealing with Hamas, OK? So let's take that with – for what it is.

For the first time in a long time, you see the framework and the output lines of something that could work.

It's going to require a lot of work and a lot of international support, and that's the end goal here of this entire endeavor after you get the hostages out.

We want to get the hostages out as soon as possible. For that to happen, there can't be a war going on in the middle of it.

Reality is, this is a war zone. I mean, this is a place that's suffered a tremendous amount of destruction. That fighting needs to stop.

Beyond that is what happens after that, and that is, how do we ensure that we can create and help build a Gaza free of terrorism, free of Hamas, free of anything like Hamas.

Let's discuss through the mediators the logistics and the mechanics behind how that happens, and that has to happen very quickly. That cannot drag on.

The Department of Homeland Security is responsible for keeping it safe.

They suck, and we’ll win, and God will bless us, and we’ll stand and be proud of ourselves at the end of the day.

President Trump promised to end the weaponization of government against the American people, and we are making good on that promise.

This is your chance for victory.

I will not tolerate delay, which many think will happen, or any outcome where Gaza poses a threat again. Let’s get this done, FAST.

Hamas must move quickly, or else all bets will be off.

This is not about Gaza alone, this is about long sought PEACE in the Middle East.

Israel must immediately stop the bombing of Gaza, so that we can get the Hostages out safely and quickly! Right now, it’s far too dangerous to do that.

I believe they are ready for a lasting PEACE.

When Hamas confirms, the Ceasefire will be IMMEDIATELY effective.

We want it to be as soon as possible.

Today in Chicago, members of our brave law enforcement were attacked — rammed and boxed in by ten vehicles, including an attacker with a semi-automatic weapon.

You know that somebody is funding them and organizing them and that they’re being paid.
