‘Equally disregards constitutions of all countries’: After America, Trump aims for Venezuela, says he’ll run for president
After serving as President of the United States for a year in his second term, it seems like Donald Trump is not ready to step down from his leadership role. Recently, during a press conference held on April 6, 2026, Trump expressed a desire to become the president of another country besides America. Any guesses? If you weren’t already thinking about it, it’s Venezuela.
In a segment from his Monday press conference, he voiced this desire, and videos of it have been going viral on social media, especially X (formerly Twitter), since then, fueling questions among Americans about Trump’s future ambitions and what they might mean for the people living in the U.S.
Trump expresses desire to become the president of Venezuela
‘Donald Trump is once again shifting his focus to Venezuela after causing chaos in the country this January. During a White House press conference on Monday, Trump suggested that he is very popular in Venezuela and even considered running for president there. He believes it wouldn’t be difficult because of his popularity and claims he is a quick learner when it comes to languages, so he can learn Spanish very easily and quickly.
Here’s what he said, verbatim, in the context: “With Venezuela, and we just so you understand the people of Venezuela, they say if I ran for president of Venezuela, I’m polling higher than anybody has ever polled in Venezuela. So after I’m finished with this, I can go to Venezuela. I will quickly learn Spanish. It won’t take too long. I’m good at language, and I will go to Venezuela. I’m going to run for president.”
Trump claims Iranians are urging him to bomb them
During the same press conference mentioned earlier, Donald Trump also claimed that the Iranians are allegedly urging him to bomb them and do whatever it takes in hopes of gaining freedom in the future. He also suggested that they were okay with the US bombing their infrastructure because they believed it would benefit them later. It’s important to note that, as of this writing, there are no credible sources confirming Trump’s claims.
“They would be willing to suffer that in order to have freedom. Uh, the Iranians have, and we’ve had numerous intercepts. ‘Please keep bombing,’ bombs that are dropping near their homes. ‘Please keep bombing. Do it.’ And these are people that are living where the bombs are exploding. And when we leave, and we’re not hitting those areas, they’re saying, ‘Please come back. Come back. Come back.’ These are the people,” said Trump while highlighting what residents in Iran were reportedly telling him when the US’s attacks in Venezuela were in full swing back in January this year.
