And Trump said, listen, 28 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: I'm not going to tell. 29 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 2: You what I'm going to do. 30 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 1: And he keeps referring to it as an excursion. He 31 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: calls it an excursion. I do wish he wouldn't do that, 32 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 1: because it's diminishing what's happening. I mean, we have thirteen 33 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: dead American soldiers. Don't call it an excursion. He's trying 34 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 1: to find a way to say it's not war. Don't 35 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:51,559 Speaker 1: call it an excursion. But back to the president here, 36 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,480 Speaker 1: as he's midway through espressure that took place earlier today. 37 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 3: And do something that no other president had the courage 38 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 3: to do, and every he wanted to do it, but 39 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 3: they never had the courage to do. And I don't 40 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 3: blame him. I'm not blaming them. It was left to me, 41 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 3: and we've done a great job. Our military is incredible. 42 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,560 Speaker 3: We have an incredible military. We have the strongest military 43 00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 3: in the world by far. We have the greatest equipment, 44 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 3: in the world by far. In fact, Japan buys our equipment, 45 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: buys a lot of it, and we're honored by that. 46 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 3: And that's one of the things we'll be talking. They 47 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 3: want to buy a lot of the military equipment. So 48 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: it's just an honor to have the prime minister. We've 49 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 3: had a tremendous relationship. Okay, I think she's going to 50 00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 3: have to go first before you. Is that okay? Do 51 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 3: you understand? It is very good? 52 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 2: I'll tell you. 53 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 3: I mean, it's so nice that we don't have the sense. No, 54 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 3: it's very good. 55 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: I haven't. 56 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 3: I haven't picked up your language. So the next time 57 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 3: you come, I'll have your language master. All right, go ahead, 58 00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: I swear to you right now. 59 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: If Trump starts learning Japanese and speaking Japanese prime Minister 60 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: of Japan, they're gonna build. 61 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: Statues to him. 62 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: Also, I don't think he's gonna learn Japanese, but I'll 63 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: be watching that one it's over. Why is the Pentagon 64 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: going to ask Congress for an additional two hundred billion dollars? 65 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 3: Well, we're asking for a lot of reasons beyond even 66 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 3: what we're talking about in Iran. When this is a 67 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 3: very vow little world and the military equipment. The power 68 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 3: of some of this weaponry is unthinkable. You don't even 69 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 3: want to know about it. Oh, you could end this 70 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 3: thing in two seconds if you wanted to. But we 71 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: are being very judicious. But we want to do don't 72 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 3: forget Biden gave away. I rebuilt the military on my 73 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 3: first term. Biden gave away so stupidly to Afghanistan a lot. 74 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 3: He didn't want to move it. He was too lazy, 75 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 3: too stupid to move it. But it was a very 76 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: smallmoun It was a lot, but it was very small 77 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:59,080 Speaker 3: relative to what I purchased and what I built. 78 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:01,200 Speaker 2: We want to have a good We. 79 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 3: Want to have vast amounts of ammunition, which we have 80 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 3: right now. We have a lot of ammunition, but it 81 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 3: was taken down by giving so much to Ukraine. They 82 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 3: gave so much, you know, Biden gave three hundred and 83 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 3: fifty billion dollars worth of cash and military equipment to 84 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 3: Ukraine and he didn't rebuild anything. Fortunately, we have a lot. 85 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 3: We have a tremendous, unlimited supply of what you'd call 86 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 3: Middle and upper Middle armaments and militaryment munitions, armaments, but munitions. 87 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 2: In particular at the high end. We have a lot, 88 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 2: but we're preserving it. 89 00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 3: We don't really need it, but we're building. Our manufacturers 90 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,039 Speaker 3: of military equipment are building at a level they've never 91 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 3: seen before, they've never done before. Peats in charge of it, 92 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 3: with all of us, really, but Peach's been very very 93 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 3: strong owner, the General and Pete myself, the whole group 94 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 3: and Raytheon is building four factories. Loakeheed is building five 95 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,359 Speaker 3: or six factories, and they're they're building them fast. Because 96 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 3: we had a very tough. 97 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: Meeting with them. 98 00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 3: They were going out and buying buying backstock for fifty 99 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 3: one billion dollars in one case, they spend fifty one 100 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 3: billion dollars buying backstock. 101 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 2: Now they're not allowed to do that. 102 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:24,400 Speaker 3: And they are now building a tremendous there's never been 103 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 3: anything like it what's taking place right now. So we're 104 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 3: in very good shape, but we want to be in 105 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 3: the best shape, the best shape we've ever been in. 106 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 3: We were that, you know, when I rebuilt the military, 107 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 3: we were in great shape. And that Biden blew it 108 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: and he didn't do anything. He didn't build, he didn't 109 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 3: do anything. And if you listen to the Democrats, they 110 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 3: don't even want to have a military, and now you 111 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,480 Speaker 3: see how important it is that line. 112 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:53,239 Speaker 1: They don't even want to have a military. The problem 113 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,120 Speaker 1: with my argument is that it makes it very easy 114 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: to someone for someone to say, you're a warmonger. 115 00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: You just want to see us go to war. 116 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: You got this military, you want to just go break 117 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: things and do damage and hurt people and put lives 118 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:05,600 Speaker 1: at risk. 119 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: That is not it. 120 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 1: Those people who are rational and honest to understand what 121 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying, But it makes it easy for the person 122 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,279 Speaker 1: who's desperate for their. 123 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: Narrative to say that the idea that we should. 124 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 1: Have a military, and the military's job is to look 125 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,239 Speaker 1: really good in its uniform and practice marching. 126 00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 2: That's not the job of a military. We should be 127 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 2: able to discuss whether or not a move. 128 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 1: An action is the right action. We should be able 129 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: to discuss this. We should discuss this is should be 130 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: of great debate. But the idea of forever wars and 131 00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 1: you're sending somebody else's kid to die, you have no 132 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: idea what forever is? Any action is a forever war. 133 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 1: It's Marjorie Taylor Green dumb, and you're sending somebody else's 134 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: kid to die. You're always sending somebody else's kid. I 135 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: have mentioned this before. 136 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 2: I just don't. 137 00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: I can't stop pushing back on this disgusting narrative. I 138 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: served in the military, and you should sign up, and 139 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: you're okay with setting somebody else's kid to die, but. 140 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: Not your own. 141 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 1: And I think it's very insulting of those who sign up. 142 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: Don't they know what the possibilities are? Isn't that what 143 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: makes them special? That they're willing to do this thing? 144 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: Not that we should send people willing nilly, not that 145 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: we should send people untrained. 146 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 2: Or without the proper weaponry. 147 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 1: When we were talking about things like Iraq or Afghanistan 148 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,880 Speaker 1: and the idea of whether or not. 149 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: They had the right armament. 150 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: And remember it was a whole thing about jeeps and 151 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: other vehicles being armored up, and how possibly could we 152 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: send someone in without everything together. That is something legitimately 153 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: to be disgusted by anger byites. 154 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:06,520 Speaker 2: I stop this. 155 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: You'll note that no one has made that case here, 156 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: hasn't been made in the slightest No, the argument is 157 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: actually a left wing argument. The left wing argument is 158 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: to make the claim that there is never a moment 159 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: where we should be on the offense to take out 160 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: the enemy. 161 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 2: We should only react. 162 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,559 Speaker 1: Now you can actually take that conversation and see how 163 00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 1: they treated Israel regarding October seventh, regarding attacks from Iran, 164 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: Israel is not allowed to take out hamas. They're not 165 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: allowed to engage the attack. They're not allowed to be 166 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: on the offensive. And you can argue Israel is the 167 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 1: only country they do that with the all clearly they 168 00:09:00,160 --> 00:09:03,480 Speaker 1: also do it with the United States, And after all, 169 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: Israel doesn't have to do any of this. They've got 170 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: the iron Dome. The iron Dome is a defensive weapon. 171 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: Missiles are coming in and it finds those missiles, targets 172 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: them and hits them. But it doesn't hit every missile, 173 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,200 Speaker 1: so some missiles get through and some people die. And 174 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: the argument from the left is that's okay, that's the 175 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:31,439 Speaker 1: price you pay. Sucks to be you what an insane argument. 176 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: You are only allowed to have defensive capability, and when 177 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: that defensive capability is exhausted or missus huh, what do 178 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:46,079 Speaker 1: you know about that? What kind of crazy person? Now, 179 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 1: maybe it's possible, Maybe it's possible that you never thought. 180 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 2: Of it in this way. I mean, you're living your 181 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: lives you've got jobs. 182 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: This is what I do. But who would possibly make 183 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: this argument? What a maddening thing that they should just 184 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 1: sit back and take it. Well, they've now made it again. 185 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: They're making it with the United States. The argument from 186 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: the left, the whole argument from the left, is that 187 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: there's no reason to take out the Iranian regime. It 188 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter how much terrorism they sponsor. It doesn't matter 189 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 1: that they sponsor the Houthi rebels and they attack ships 190 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: in the Red Sea and now they're afraid to travel. 191 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:40,199 Speaker 1: They're trying to engage control of the navigable seas. We 192 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: took ourselves down to the shores of Tripoli and beat 193 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 1: the living snot out of the Barbary pirates, those little 194 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: sniveling bitches for capturing what would be Americans and putting 195 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:54,679 Speaker 1: them as slaves. 196 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 2: What oh, they don't teach. 197 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: That in history, right, Slavery only went one way. It 198 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: wasn't utilized worldwide. Slavery is pure, raw, unadult raated evil. 199 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: But if we're gonna have a history lesson, kids, we're 200 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 1: gonna have the whole history lesson. 201 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: It is the position of the left and yes, the 202 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: woke right, to make the claim that there's never a reason. 203 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: I disagree with that wholeheartedly. There is reason, and when 204 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:41,880 Speaker 1: we decide that the reason is there. When we decide 205 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: that the reason is there, and the president of the 206 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: United States, who is elected by the people, says, this 207 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: is what we're doing. We need to go in with 208 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 1: overwhelming force and destroy the enemy until they are dead, 209 00:11:56,480 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: not wounded, not hurt, dead, and everybody else is begging 210 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:11,319 Speaker 1: you to stop. So other presidents could have made this move. Remember, 211 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,079 Speaker 1: we should have made this move since nineteen seventy nine. 212 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 2: We haven't. We are now he's on the clock with it. 213 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 2: We'll have more from the press conference coming up. Keep 214 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: it here.
