TRUMP ON U.S. AMMUNITION STOCKPILES: Biden gave a lot to Ukraine, so we’re rebuilding our stockpiles. But we have a lot. I’d like to have even more, to be honest, but so much was given to Ukraine under Biden - numbers nobody’s ever seen before. So we’re rebuilding very rapidly. —————————————————- JOURNALIST:Are you concerned about depleting stockpiles if there is a broadening conflict with Iran? TRUMP: No, we have plenty. We have a lot of ammunition, different types. You know, Biden gave a lot to Ukraine, and so we're building that up, but we have a lot. We have a lot of the mid-level stuff too, I mean, more than we could ever use, no matter what. But we have a lot. I'd like to have more, to be honest, but so much was given to Ukraine by Biden. When I left, the cupboards were full. When I came here with Obama, he didn't buy ammunition. We had very little, and I got it built. Now, as soon as I left, they gave a lot of it to Ukraine. I mean, numbers that nobody's ever seen before. So we're building it very rapidly. Plants are being built a lot of equipment's being built. The Patriots in particular are being built. The THAAD (Terminal High Altitude Area Defense) system is going up. We have a lot. Every one of our contractors is building 4 to 5 plants right now. And we're in very good shape. But, for some of the more sophisticated stuff, we'd certainly like to have more. Biden gave a lot of it away.
