Trump’s 60 Minutes interview: Midterm losses, deportations, Ukraine, Iran, and UFOs

In a wide-ranging 60 Minutes interview, President Donald Trump conceded that Republican midterm losses were partly due to poor messaging and acknowledged his mass deportation policies were "too harsh" and politically costly. Trump suggested Ukraine may need to surrender territory for peace with Russia, defended the Iran war, and discussed potential 2028 successors like JD Vance and Marco Rubio. He also admitted he could not forgive political enemies, even to enter Heaven. The interview covered AI competition with China, business conflicts of interest, and UFOs, with Trump relaying pilot accounts of mysterious objects. He also expressed confidence in Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and openness to working with Democrats.
