1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: So big day in Washington, d C. Is Trump and 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Zelenski and other European leaders are set to meet here 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: coming up later in the day. Obviously, Friday, it was 4 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:16,400 Speaker 1: Trump and Putin in Alaska. And I'll tell you what, Jerry, 5 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:19,920 Speaker 1: they did something smart over the weekend. Theyving the Trump administration. 6 00:00:20,840 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: They kept Trump away from the reporters as far as 7 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 1: I could see, and they sent Rubio to the talk 8 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: show circuit. And he is really good at his job. 9 00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,520 Speaker 2: Oh, he's he might be one of the best people 10 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 2: at his job within this administration. I don't think you're 11 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: gonna be very hard pressed to find a better person 12 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 2: in a position in this administration is better than Rubio. 13 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he is perfectly fit for that position. 14 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: There's a lot of people Trump has that he appointed 15 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:49,840 Speaker 1: him or picked him because it's like, oh, there's celebrity 16 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: or whatever. And I think Rubio is actually really good 17 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: at at that at that job. And so he did 18 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: all the all the talk shows over the weekend. I 19 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 1: mean he was on like four or five of them. 20 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:06,199 Speaker 1: And he's just a really good he's a really good, 21 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 1: consistent messenger. And what will be fascinating aside from a 22 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 1: place on this audio here from Ruby over the weekend. 23 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: But what will be fascinating is is we look to 24 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: the next election because I think Rubio now and Vance 25 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: are the two most closely associated with Trump, and if 26 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 1: you're a Trump only type of voter, those are probably 27 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:33,319 Speaker 1: the two guys you're gonna look at and it will 28 00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: be interesting to see how that because both of those 29 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: guys want to be president. 30 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 2: I'd add Desanta set list, who's kind of Trump light. 31 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, the problem for Desantas is his campaign was so 32 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 1: bad the last time, and he's you're looking at two 33 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: years where he won't be in the spotlight, like he's 34 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: not going to be able to do anything from a 35 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: governance perspective. But yeah, I agree, I think those are 36 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: your I think that's those three if he if Desanta's 37 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: gets in, and then everybody else, but man, Rubio is 38 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: just perfect. Like We're gonna play several of these clips, 39 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: and the consistency in the messaging and the way he 40 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 1: relays it is so good. So the first one is 41 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:11,680 Speaker 1: from Fox News. He was on with Maria Bartiromo and 42 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 1: was talking about and this was a wide ranging interview, 43 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: but he explains, because Trump is the left, some of 44 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: these squishy Republicans, they're up in arms that Trump even 45 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 1: took the meeting, And I thought Rubio did a good 46 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: job of explaining why Trump took the meeting with Putin. 47 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 3: If at some point it becomes clear that both sides 48 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 3: are so far apart and so dug in that we're 49 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 3: just not near a peace deal, then the President will 50 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 3: have a decision to make about how much more time 51 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 3: do we invest in it and what actions does he 52 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 3: take then. But I want everyone to understand if tomorrow, 53 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 3: if this morning the President woke up and said I'm 54 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,919 Speaker 3: putting these terrible strong sanctions on Russia, that's fine. It 55 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 3: may make people feel good for a couple hours, But 56 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,400 Speaker 3: here's what you're basically saying. You're saying talks are over 57 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 3: for the foreseeable future, for the next year or year 58 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 3: and a half, there's no more talks because there's no 59 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 3: one else in the world that can talk to him. Okay, 60 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 3: Putin's not going to with Macron, he's not going to 61 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,239 Speaker 3: meet with the UK. With all due respect to these leaders, 62 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 3: none of these leaders are going to be able to 63 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 3: bring him to the table and talk to them. There's 64 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 3: only one leader in the world that has any chance 65 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 3: of bringing these two sides together. If there is a chance, 66 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 3: there's only one leader in the world that can do it, 67 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 3: and that's President Trump, and you forfeit that role the 68 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 3: minute you put additional sanctions on him. We may get 69 00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 3: to that point, unfortunately, but if we do, it means 70 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 3: that peace talks are no longer possible, and that would 71 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 3: be very unfortunate because the real world ratifications are that 72 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 3: while we're here calling each other names and doing TV 73 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 3: interviews about this stuff and all that, in American politics, 74 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 3: there are people who today will be injured and killed 75 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 3: in the battlefield and in cities in Ukraine on the 76 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,119 Speaker 3: front lines and even in Russia. 77 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, he's spot on, and I get that 78 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: most people that are like mad that Trump met with Putin, 79 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: they're doing it for political posturing, political points, whatever. But 80 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: it's ludicrous to think you're going to solve this issue 81 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: without Putin being a part of the equation. 82 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 2: Right, right, And he's right. The only person that can 83 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: hold this conversation is Trump. Sure, And the best thing 84 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: that Trump could do is just not talk to reporters, 85 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: like you said, it would go flawlessly. 86 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Let let Rubio do the talking. He's great, Trump 87 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 1: will negotiates some sort of deal, but like, like Putin knows, 88 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: the world is not going to send troops into Ukraine. 89 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,039 Speaker 1: And as long as the worlds are going to send 90 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: troops into Ukraine, then Russia will forever at worst be 91 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,479 Speaker 1: able to stalemate the Ukraine. They have grown over the 92 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,440 Speaker 1: past several years, in small margins, they've been able to, 93 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: I think, quote unquote win the fight, although I think 94 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: it's been you know, a relative draw with the with 95 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: the other countries supplying ammunitions, et cetera. But like, how 96 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 1: would you and on what planet would this thing get 97 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,279 Speaker 1: resolved without Trump and Putin's sitting down. 98 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 2: Hey, the most gangster thing I've ever seen a long 99 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 2: time was when Trump was greeting Putin and then the 100 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 2: stealth bomber and the and the four jets fly right 101 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: over Putin and Trump and pot and Putin takes kind 102 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: of like a step back, and Trump kind of grabs 103 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 2: him by his arm, kind of like I could have 104 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: had to there. 105 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,880 Speaker 1: Bud got okay, so Rubio. Then he was on Meet 106 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 1: the Press. My gosh, the CBS and the in the 107 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: NBC shows, they're so bad. I mean, these hosts you 108 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: think about it at one point, some of the great 109 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: names that have been Tim Russert, et cetera. And it's 110 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:24,120 Speaker 1: like these, I mean, these people are just awful. But 111 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,239 Speaker 1: he was on Meet the Press and he was talking 112 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: about the idea of a ceasefire, which he says is 113 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: still on the table, but the ultimate desire is to 114 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 1: end the war. 115 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 3: Is a ceasefire now off the table, mister Secretary, No, 116 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 3: it's not off the table. I think what the President said, 117 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 3: In fact, you just read it on the air a 118 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,279 Speaker 3: few moments ago. It was agreed to by all that 119 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 3: the best way to end this conflict is to a 120 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,040 Speaker 3: full peace deal. There's no doubt about that. I mean, 121 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 3: who would be against the fact if tomorrow we came 122 00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 3: to you and said we have a full piece deal 123 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 3: and it's done. I think that's the best way to 124 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 3: end the war. Now, there needs to be a ceasefire 125 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,159 Speaker 3: on the way they are what we've advocated for that. 126 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 3: Unfortunately the Russians as of now have not agreed to that. 127 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 3: But the ideal here, what we're aiming for here is 128 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 3: not a cease fire. What we ultimately are aiming for 129 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 3: is an end to this war. 130 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: Like this question is just ridiculous. Are you saying a 131 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: ceasefire is no? Of course not. But it's like, why 132 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:26,040 Speaker 1: would you even waste your time focusing on that. Clearly 133 00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: this thing is going to go on whether it stops 134 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 1: and starts. Ask Israel and Palestine. These ceasefires, they mean nothing, 135 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: It'll start up again. Like it's just like the questions 136 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: from the mainstream national media on this jury, they're just 137 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 1: these people are ridiculous. 138 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 2: I think. I think the sad reality about media in 139 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 2: this country is it's so polarizing. It is black hats, 140 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 2: white hats. They cannot give Trump a win, even if 141 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 2: it's for the betterment of our country. And there's a 142 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: lot of people on the right that will not give 143 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 2: a win to the left even if it's for the 144 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: betterment of our country regardless, and I think it does 145 00:06:58,040 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: us all a disservice. 146 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,840 Speaker 1: All right, So a couple more clips here from Rubio, 147 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: and again, like I said, they ought to just let 148 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,919 Speaker 1: him talk on everything. Trump should just never talk in public. 149 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 1: I want to go back to that interview with Maria 150 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: Bartiromo and he being Rubio addressed the idea that the 151 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: media of the left tried to make this a big deal, 152 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: that no deal was made, right, and he addressed the 153 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: ridiculousness of anybody walking in there thinking a deal was 154 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: going to be cut in this meeting with Trump and putin. 155 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 3: First of all, if you recall that, there's no way 156 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: you can have a meeting like that, And we never 157 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 3: said there was going to be a deal coming out 158 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 3: of the meeting because the Ukrainians are not there. This 159 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 3: is a war between two countries. It's not America, Ukraine 160 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: and Russia. We met with a Russian side, We've spoken 161 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 3: repeatedly with the Ukrainian side. We'll see them again tomorrow 162 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 3: in person, along with our allies in Europe. So I 163 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: do think some progress was made in that talk in 164 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 3: terms of narrowing down the issue set. And now these 165 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 3: are hard issues that remain, you know, the conversation about 166 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 3: where the territorial lines are going to be, questions about 167 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 3: long term security guarantees and who Ukraine can have military 168 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 3: alliances with, things like that. These are difficult things. But 169 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 3: I do believe we've made progress in narrowing down the 170 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 3: issue set. But there's a lot of work that remains. 171 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 3: There's still this is a there's a reason why this 172 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: war has been going on for three and a half years. 173 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 3: It's a war that never would have happened had President 174 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 3: Trump been president, but he inherited it and now he's 175 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 3: trying to do everything he can to bring about peace. 176 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,960 Speaker 3: He's made peace a priority of his administration. As you've 177 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 3: seen with all the peace deals we've been able to 178 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 3: achieve throughout the world, this one's the hardest one. Everyone 179 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 3: acknowledges that, but he's the only one in the world 180 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:32,960 Speaker 3: that has any chance of doing it. Look, peace may 181 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 3: not be possible at the end of the day, we 182 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 3: don't know. But if it is possible, he's the only 183 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 3: one that can get it done. 184 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 1: I like, I don't. I think the one thing that 185 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: Trump did that was a massive mistake is on the 186 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: campaign trails that I'll solve this in twenty four hours. 187 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: Well, he said that about everything. Well and that was it, Yeah, Ebstein, 188 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: all of it twenty four hours, and he didn't deliver 189 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 2: on any of that. 190 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: None of what Rubio is saying is remotely bad or 191 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 1: unreasonable or anything. The only problem is we're eight months 192 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,439 Speaker 1: into Trump being president and now you're just now getting 193 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 1: down to this, and he made the definitive statement, right, 194 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,240 Speaker 1: So when you do that, and I guess you got 195 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 1: to try to win campaigns. And so much of what 196 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,360 Speaker 1: Trump says is hyperbole or whatever, but he really he 197 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 1: really makes himself look foolish when the fact that they're 198 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: grinding so hard eight months into this thing. 199 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and to me, it's really hard just as a vet. 200 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 2: These two guys are going to meet to have a meeting, 201 00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,640 Speaker 2: and not one of them is just going to square 202 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 2: off from the other one. And you have people that 203 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 2: are out dying for your causes and you guys can 204 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 2: sit down and cordially have a meeting. Well, and it's 205 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 2: hard for me to understand you're the ones sending people 206 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: to die. 207 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: I want to play one more clip here and then 208 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: I'll address that. So Rubio was on ABC, Like I said, man, 209 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: he hit all of them. He just boom boom boom, 210 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,119 Speaker 1: sent the right guy. And yeah, absolutely, And he rejects 211 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: this idea that the left trying to say that this 212 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: meeting to come bring full circle on this, that they 213 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 1: that this meeting elevated putin. 214 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 3: I mean, critics of President Trump are always going find something 215 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 3: to criticize. You don't pay attention to it anymore. But 216 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: I will tell you this, Putin is already on the 217 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 3: world stage. He's already on the world stage. The guy's 218 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 3: conducting a full scale war in Ukraine. He's already on 219 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 3: the world stage. He has the world's largest tactical nuclear 220 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 3: arsenal in the world and the second largest strategic nuclear 221 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 3: arsenal in the world. He's already on the world stage. 222 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 3: When I hear people say that it elevates him, well, 223 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 3: all we do is talk about Putin all the time. 224 00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 3: All the media's done is talk about Putin all the 225 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 3: time for the last four or five years. That doesn't 226 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 3: mean he's right about the war. That doesn't mean he's 227 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 3: justified about the war. Put all that aside. It means 228 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,720 Speaker 3: you're not going to have a peace agreement between Russia 229 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 3: and Ukraine. You're not going to end a war between 230 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 3: Russia and Ukraine without dealing with Putin. That's just common sense. 231 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 3: I shouldn't even have to say it. 232 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: He's right. It's the like, and I get this all 233 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: the time when we have people on that like our 234 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 1: audience doesn't like and they're like, I can't believe you 235 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: would give that person a forum. Why they exist? It's 236 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: like it's equivalent of saying with Vladimir Putin that if 237 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: Taylor's Swift, If Taylor Swift people called and said, will 238 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: you have Taylor Swift on your show? And we have 239 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:06,840 Speaker 1: Taylor Swift, people would say, I can't believe you would 240 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: give Taylor Swift, who's a big lefty of for him, 241 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 1: as though people aren't going to know who Taylor Swift is. 242 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 1: Right if somehow she's not on the Kendall and Casey show. 243 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: It's the same thing here. He's a guy, he exists. 244 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: He is the number one part of this equation since 245 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: the US ain't involved in the war. From a troops perspective, 246 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 1: whatever Putin decides to do is how this thing is 247 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: gonna go, and he can make it go as long 248 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 1: as he wants to go, because he knows nobody's gonna 249 00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: put ground troops in there against him. It is so ridiculous. 250 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 1: I can't believe that they would elevate him like that. 251 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: Everybody already knows who he is. 252 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 2: I mean, it's really up to Putin when this is over. 253 00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 2: When he decides it's over, it's over. Until then, he's 254 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 2: just gonna be bleeding American taxpayer dollars in the Ukraine 255 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: because they got us fully funding this war.
