1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Dan Mitchinson US correspondence with us Elo Dan. Hello, Heather, 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: all right, so does it look to you like the 3 00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 1: US is going to get involved here? 4 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 2: It sure does seem that way, doesn't it. I Mean, 5 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,600 Speaker 2: it's been crazy over the last couple of hours, with 6 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,239 Speaker 2: the President, as you just mentioned, announcing he's considering whether 7 00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:17,680 Speaker 2: to to launch these military strikes against Iran, and then 8 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,119 Speaker 2: the island Tola just a short time ago, issuing in 9 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 2: a warning on social media telling Israel quote, the battle 10 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 2: is beginning, and Trump is saying his patience is wearing 11 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 2: thin and he's demanding surrender. So he met with his 12 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 2: national security team today, spoke with the Israeli Prime Minister 13 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:35,520 Speaker 2: of Benjamin Yahoo, and it's I mean, despite having said 14 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 2: that we were not going to intervene directly in this conflict, 15 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: I mean, it appears that way right now because he 16 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,240 Speaker 2: said we have complete and total control of the skies 17 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: over Iran. 18 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,559 Speaker 1: Now he's the guy who's made a big picture hit 19 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: of the election about you know, stopping war's wars not 20 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: happening under his watch, and now this, how is this 21 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,160 Speaker 1: going to go down with his voting base. 22 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: I don't think they'll care one way or the other 23 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: it's the same way he said that he would solve 24 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: a number of problems on day one of his administration. 25 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: You know, you can see what you want when you're 26 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 2: running for election, and once you get into the office, 27 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: I mean, people are going to hold you accountable, but 28 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 2: what more can they do? So I think we're gonna 29 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 2: have to kind of wait and see on this. I mean, 30 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 2: the US embassy a short time ago in Israel today 31 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 2: said it's going to be closed for tomorrow through Friday, 32 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: and all the employees have been told to shelter in place. 33 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,840 Speaker 2: So it's going to be I think interesting to see 34 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 2: what happens in the next few days or even hours. 35 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,560 Speaker 2: And you get the feeling though that's something big is 36 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: in the works. 37 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, does feel like that. What about I mean, do 38 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: you guys, do you guys reflect at all as voters 39 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,679 Speaker 1: on previous US attempts to force regime change and how 40 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: badly that's gone, and then look at the situation and think, 41 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 1: we haven't got a great track records, should probably let 42 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 1: this one go. 43 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 2: I think a lot of that fades with time. I 44 00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: think everybody gets angry and upset, and you know, threats 45 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 2: are made and for for the next candidate that's going 46 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: to run or the current one that it's in office, 47 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: and then when the election time rolls around, you know, 48 00:02:03,480 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 2: you get the ads that target that the people. But 49 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: I think voters are I hate to say forgiving. Maybe 50 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: that's the wrong term to use, but I do think 51 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 2: it kind of fades over time, and I don't think 52 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,799 Speaker 2: they hold them is accountable as perhaps they should. 53 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: Right, So, if this one goes, if there's regime change 54 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: in Iran and it goes the way of Iraq, or 55 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: it goes the way of Labia, goes away anything else 56 00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 1: that the US has been involved in, if it goes 57 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,240 Speaker 1: tits up, everybody will just forgive Donald Trump for it. 58 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: I think I think they'll find a way to deflect 59 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 2: the blame from the Trump administration, which is we know, 60 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: I mean, he's he's been very good at and his 61 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: base seems to buy into. 62 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, listen, this new Donald Trump phone. Is this 63 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: made in China? 64 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 2: It is? It is? It's he just announced this. It's 65 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 2: a smartphone. You know, he's saying it's made in the USA. 66 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: But now that you know the problem is it was 67 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: actually made in China. It's going to cost I think 68 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: forty seven forty five, which reflects you know, he's the 69 00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: forty fifth and forty seventh president right here. And I 70 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: mean it's kind of interesting, isn't it that you've got 71 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: a president here that some are saying, well, you can't 72 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 2: really be doing this, it's kind of a conflict. But 73 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: he is. And he's got three carriers lined up, three 74 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: of the big ones over here in the US. And 75 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 2: you know, I mean they're justifying a monthly fee. They're 76 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 2: saying that a lot of the services are going to 77 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 2: tack on may make this kind of more expensive than 78 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: he's saying. But the site does say that if you've 79 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:23,959 Speaker 2: got your own phone, you can bring it over to 80 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 2: the network too, And it's just another way for him 81 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 2: or his family to bring in some extra money. I 82 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: guess he's. 83 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,320 Speaker 1: Monetizing a hard eye. Now, what are the states in 84 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: the US where people are more likely to have dark trice? 85 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: Nevada, New York, South Dakota, and Texas which contained the 86 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 2: highest percentages of those who are in possession of this. 87 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 2: And they did this study out of Europe over I 88 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: think it was twenty years and they found these people 89 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 2: that displayed different levels of dark personality traits, and it 90 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 2: depended on their location and the societal conditions they had. 91 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: And it looked at one hundred and eighty three countries. 92 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 2: They found countries like yours that have a lower level 93 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: of societal corruption though, and in equity I'm quoting right there, 94 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: tended to have fewer of these so called psychopaths than 95 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 2: we do over here in this part of the world. 96 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 2: So nice job there. 97 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: What then, did they shed any light on, you know, 98 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 1: what it is that breeds a psychopath? Is it the inequity? 99 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: It's the inequity right now, they're saying, you know, it's 100 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: living conditions, and it's the percentage of population that just 101 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 2: have these dark traits that are are embedded in our 102 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 2: DNA as we're born too. So a lot of it is, 103 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 2: I think you know who you are when you're born, 104 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 2: and a lot of it is is where you grow 105 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 2: up in the conditions that you're surrounded by. 106 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: All right, Dan, thanks very much, Dan Mitchenson, you as correspondent. 107 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: For more from Hither Dupless Yellen Drive, listen live to 108 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:49,919 Speaker 1: news talks it'd be from four pm weekdays, or follow 109 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,720 Speaker 1: the podcast on iHeartRadio.
