Catsimatidis stated, “The evil empire, whether it’s Russia, North Korea, China, Iran, the evil empire will do anything to make sure that they cripple Trump in the Nov. 3 election.”
He singled out Canada, expressing disappointment in Prime Minister Mark Carney despite describing the leader as someone he likes and considers smart.
Red Apple Group Chair and CEO John Catsimatidis warned that the ‘evil empire’ of Russia, North Korea, China, and Iran is targeting Trump, citing fears that a weakened president would allow enemies to exploit American vulnerabilities.
During his segment, Catsimatidis praised President Trump’s positive impact in dealing with trade in Venezuela and Ukraine.
“I think he [Carney] feels the same way, that they’re gonna be able to take a bigger advantage of the United States if Trump was crippled,” Catsimatidis added.
He emphasized that, as a businessman himself, the president’s dealmaking strategies invite scrutiny from nations seeking geopolitical leverage.
Catsimatidis reflected on the September 11 attacks, noting he lost four personal friends and a cousin on that day. He warned that younger Americans lack a personal memory of the event and argued the country must remain vigilant against evolving threats, mentioning New York and Washington as key targets.
