1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: Just a quickie the Aaron Mullin Show for your weekend. 2 00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: I'm clearly traveling. I had an event in Miami a 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: couple of days ago, and I've got an event at 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,959 Speaker 1: Mari Lago in about three days from now. So I 5 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: wanted to share my thoughts on Iran, AOC and Valentine's 6 00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:22,080 Speaker 1: Day Iran, hundreds of thousands of people hitting the streets 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 1: to demand freedom and end to the terrorist regime democracy. 8 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 1: Who would have thought, well, clearly not from the silence 9 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:38,199 Speaker 1: of those who purport to care. The movie stars, the 10 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: rock stars, the Democrats, the humanitarians, the United Nations. Oh no, no, no, sorry, 11 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 1: they did come out very strongly to congratulate the Iatola 12 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: on his nearly five decade reign. 13 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: Can you believe it? 14 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 1: Off the back of tens of thousands, if not more, 15 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: deaths of innocent people over the past few weeks alone, 16 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: there's movement. 17 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 2: Now. 18 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: I was a little bit worried where I started to 19 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,120 Speaker 1: see some of this rhetoric coming out talking about a 20 00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: deal from people who were staunch no dealers, or they've 21 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 1: come back, They've come back strong. Senator Lindsay Graham take 22 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: a bow. He spoke brilliantly, brilliantly at a rally. That's 23 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,639 Speaker 1: what we need to see. And again, it's not about 24 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: war mongering, my dear friends. It's not about not America first. 25 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: It's about America first. It's about peace through strength, and 26 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: it's about not having your soldier's blood spilled by a terrorist. 27 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,800 Speaker 2: Regime who has so much of it on their hands. 28 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: This ain't political, by the way, I don't know how 29 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: many times we need to remind people. 30 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: This should be universal. 31 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: This should be the easiest thing in the world to support, 32 00:01:55,760 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: the easiest. There is nothing controversial about opposing terrorism and 33 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:05,880 Speaker 1: standing with innocent people who demand an end to it, 34 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: who were giving their lives for it. Not political, not 35 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: difference of opinion. You're either on the side of good 36 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:16,799 Speaker 1: or you're on the side of evil. 37 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 2: AOC. 38 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I already thought she was one of the 39 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: least impressive people I have ever ever watched or listened to. Ever, 40 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: I didn't think she would be able to beat that. 41 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: I did not think she would be capable of surpassing. 42 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 2: What was already a very low bar with her. But 43 00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 2: AOC take a bow again. 44 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: Asked about Taiwan, she completely capitulated on the world stage, 45 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: and this, my friends, is why it's actually okay to 46 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: be cute. 47 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: It's okay to be warm, it's okay to have charisma. 48 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: If that's what those in the left think that she 49 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 1: has in space, I don't see it whatsoever. 50 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 2: But it's okay to have all of that. What is 51 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 2: not okay is to. 52 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: Not back it up with substance, with a modicum of knowledge. 53 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: This is a potential presidential candidate, the front runner I'm 54 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: going aside from Nepad Newsom, and she could not answer 55 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 1: a very basic, obvious question at a security. 56 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: Conference on Taiwan shame. It actually really. 57 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: Hurts me more than it normally would because it makes 58 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 1: me feel like even the Democrats now cannot say take her, 59 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: even they are going to have to say, lordy lord, 60 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: we cannot put that woman forward because that was unforgivable. 61 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: And lastly, Valentine's Day, and yes, full acknowledgment, I am 62 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: a single, early forties woman for the first time in 63 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: my life. By the way, I have never been alone 64 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: on Valentine's Day. I mean There've been moments, but I've 65 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 1: essentially been in relationships my entire. 66 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 2: Adult life, watching couples over. 67 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 1: The past twenty four hours or so, and I've sat 68 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: in Barr's restaurants at hotels. It is not a flex 69 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: to be an older man with a younger woman. And 70 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: I know I'm making a generalization, and I know this 71 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: might be controversial, and I. 72 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: Know that there are cases where the love is genuine 73 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: and real. I get it. But I do not look at. 74 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 1: Anyone in that position and think, Wow, what a god 75 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: he is, How did he get her? 76 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 2: What a legend? 77 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: No, I tell you what the real flex is a 78 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: man who stays with his wife, who stays with the 79 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: woman he married when they were early twenties and had kids, 80 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: and he does the work, and I know it's up 81 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: to her as well, and she does the work, et cetera, 82 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: et cetera. But I'm talking about the stereotype that I've 83 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: watched a lot here in Florida over the past day 84 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: or so. I tell you who looks the happiest, Men 85 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: with women around their age, with kids around, with grandkids around, 86 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: Men who actually can talk. 87 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 2: To their partner, they look at the happiest. 88 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: The amount of men in their fifties and sixties with 89 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: much younger women, no judgment, no shame, looked miserable for 90 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: the most. 91 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 2: Part, and so did the women with them. 92 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: They looked surly and insecure and angry and jealous, and 93 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: they were getting annoyed with him the whole time. And 94 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: the men were kind of like h looking around, not talking, 95 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: and when they were talking it was like tidbits. So 96 00:05:43,080 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: again gross generalization. I know their exceptions, I know them firsthand. 97 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:48,920 Speaker 2: I am not bitter. 98 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:54,279 Speaker 1: I'm happy for everyone, but my observations as a non 99 00:05:54,320 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: expert person who normally talks about national security, defense, foreign affairs, politics, etc. 100 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 2: It's no flex. They don't look happy. No one does. 101 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,679 Speaker 1: I am most impressed by people who put the effort 102 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: into their partners, who have been there for essentially the 103 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 1: long run. And I know, caveat that's not always possible. 104 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: And I know sometimes the women are the ones who leave, 105 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: or are the ones who make it untenable, or the 106 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: ones who cheat. I get it, But I'm just saying 107 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: as an overview, it doesn't. 108 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 2: Make you cool, gentlemen. It doesn't. 109 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: For the most part, it just looks sad. Have a 110 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 1: great rest of you Valentine's Day, if you're in the US, 111 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 1: have a great rest of your weekend, and I cannot 112 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: wait to see you on Monday six am The Eron 113 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 1: Mullin Show, Love You All,
