TRANSCRIPT:

REPORTER: "You've said earlier this week that Putin would face severe consequences if you get the sense from him that he's not interested. What do you mean by that?"

TRUMP: "Economically severe. Yes, it will be very severe. I'm not doing this for my health, okay? I don't need it. I'd like to focus on our country. But I'm doing this to save a lot of lives. Yeah, very severe."
