Details: Trump said his past suggestion that he might not get into heaven was actually a joke. He accused the media of quoting his previous remarks about the afterlife word for word, suggesting his irony was not understood in reporting.

Quote: "I was just having fun. I really think I probably should make it. I mean, I am not a perfect candidate, but I did a hell of a lot of good for perfect people."
Background:
- Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin said a similar phrase in 2018 at the Valdai Forum in Sochi in the context of the use of nuclear weapons: "We will go to heaven as martyrs, and they will simply die".
- Trump recently wrote a letter to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre in which he linked his statements about intending to take control of Greenland to not being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
