EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "I’ll meet with anybody. I believe in meeting. The Prime Minister said it better than anybody can say it. Speaking to other people, especially when you’re talking about potentials of war and death and famine and lots of other things, you meet. There’s nothing wrong with meeting. We met with Chairman Kim. Haven’t had a missile fired off in ninth months. We got our prisoners back so many things have happened so positive. I had a great meeting, in my opinion, of course the fake news didn’t cover it that way. But I had a great meeting with President Putin of Russia. It was a great meeting in terms of the future, in terms of safety and economic development and protecting Israel and protecting everybody. I thought it was a great meeting, a great meeting with NATO. Hundreds of billions of dollars, more money will be paid into NATO, the coffers of NATO. Much already has. I believe in meeting. I’d certainly meet with Iran if they want to meet. I don't know that they're ready yet. They’re having a hard time right now. But I ended the Iran deal. It was a ridiculous deal. I do believe that they will probably end up wanting to meet. I’m ready to meet any time they want to. I don’t do that from strength or from weakness. I think it’s an appropriate thing to do. If we could work something out that’s meaningful, not the waste of paper that the other deal was, I would certainly be willing to meet."

RAMPTON: "Do you have preconditions for that meeting?"

TRUMP: "No preconditions. No. If they want to meet, I’ll meet. Any time they want. It’s good for the country, good for them, good for us and good for the world. No preconditions. If they want to meet, I’ll meet."
