Trump has 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:20.160 touched down in Singapore for his summit with Kim Jong Oon. 0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:24.399 Also well we know that the G seven summit had 0:01:24.480 --> 0:01:27.840 some more interesting fireworks than anticipated. There was talk of 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:33.319 backstabbing and talk of betrayal, and the president given quite 0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:37.200 a lesson in diplomacy to Adjustin Trudeau of North We'll 0:01:37.200 --> 0:01:40.080 talk about that, plus what is going on with tariffs 0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:43.240 and the economy, and howard Democrats going to run on 0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:47.200 Trump is doing too well right now on those issues, 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:51.360 That and more coming up.

At 0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:16.480 least for me, my worst expectations were actually met this 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:20.320 weekend at the G seven meetings. It's bad geo politics. 0:02:20.480 --> 0:02:24.560 His advisors go out using language that's usually reserved for, 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:30.720 you know, maybe the leader of North Korea. Exactly right, 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:35.760 you know, special places. The attacks against Trudeau were strangely, 0:02:36.919 --> 0:02:41.639 weirdly personal. I don't know if he is threatened by 0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:45.440 Justin Trudeau being younger. I have no idea Kinada. The 0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:48.680 G seven was an epic foreign policy fail. I mean, 0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:51.560 it was an easy lay up missed by the United States. 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.799 So over the top. Yeah, well they were over that. 0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:57.160 Not even that's not even the way to describe it. Well, 0:02:57.200 --> 0:03:00.480 and it really was the language of war with out 0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:06.160 of curious, I figured fake news CNN. But you know 0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:07.680 I could tell by the question I have no idea 0:03:07.680 --> 0:03:10.040 you with CNN. After the question, I was just curious 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.400 as to who you're with? You with CNN, I would 0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:16.440 say that the level of relationship is a ten. We 0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:23.720 have a great relationship Angela and Emmanuel adjustin the relationship 0:03:23.800 --> 0:03:25.680 that I've had is great. So you can tell that 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:29.240 to you have fake friends at CNN. Welcome to the 0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:33.720 Buck Sexton Show. This President's amazing, Okay. I mean there 0:03:33.760 --> 0:03:35.320 there are some days where I come in here and 0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:38.240 I'm just like, I don't know what Thank God for 0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:40.920 Donald Trump. I don't know what else to say that 0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:43.360 the media was in such a little hasty fit over 0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:47.280 the weekend. There's such a bunch of snide, condescending, self 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:53.360 important punks, clowns and losers. They really are. They're like, oh, 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:56.720 how can you do if you are Barallary? It's like, okay, 0:03:56.760 --> 0:04:01.400 first of all, everybody stop hyperventilating about every thing, right, 0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.520 you know, we see this with every we see this 0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:06.119 on every issue, right, whatever Trump does something like this, yeah, 0:04:06.200 --> 0:04:08.320 dear man, you know, and then they'll say, oh no, 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:10.240 withhe Obama, we talked about it too. It's like yeah, 0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:12.240 I mean you wrote about it, and it was like, well, 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.360 this is a thing that happened today, let's move on. 0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:18.880 I mean, it's just the disparity, the double standard. It's 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:21.400 in every it's in everything. It's in everything, and and 0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:25.200 the fact that they pretend it's not is a joke. Alright. 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:28.839 Anyone who was a little Obama it in the media 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:33.040 for eight years then is a little anti Trump maniac now. 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:36.960 And if they tell you otherwise, they're lying or they're 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.520 just delusional. I actually it might be more delusion. I think. 0:04:39.760 --> 0:04:41.560 I think they believe it, so it's not really a 0:04:41.600 --> 0:04:46.479 lie because they believe the untruth. But you have this 0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:49.320 whole We played this montage for you about the G 0:04:49.480 --> 0:04:54.920 seven and Okay, this is what happened. It's pretty straightforward, 0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.280 and I gotta you know, at the top of the show, 0:04:58.320 --> 0:05:00.839 I just want to say this Trump has change the 0:05:00.920 --> 0:05:08.720 way that we are thinking about tariffs. If nothing else 0:05:08.760 --> 0:05:11.240 comes from this, at least now people understand that when 0:05:11.240 --> 0:05:13.400 they say look or remember, free trader. It's like, really, well, 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:15.680 what do you think about all of the countries of 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:18.000 the world that have tariffs in place, including lots of 0:05:18.040 --> 0:05:20.719 them that have big tariffs in place against US? Is 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:24.400 that free trade? All right? I'm a free trader? Okay, yeah, 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:26.479 but what does that mean? This is like saying I 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:29.000 believe in a free market all right? Does that mean 0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:31.880 you don't believe in cutting back regulation or fighting back 0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:34.160 against the Federal of Viathan when it tries to impose 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:39.520 more regulation. No, free trade is a principle. It is 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:43.599 not a reality right now, and there are tariffs in 0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:48.320 place even with a look. Canada is like family. I mean, 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:52.920 when we're talking about international relations, Canada doesn't even really 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:56.679 count as international relations. It's really, you know, almost intra 0:05:56.880 --> 0:05:58.920 national relations. I mean there there are buddies, there are 0:05:58.920 --> 0:06:01.760 a cousin. They're part of the family. You know, we 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.960 get it right. And the way that the media is 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.040 running around the rack like there's some huge rift and 0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.160 I don't think that the moose brigades are gonna come, 0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:15.200 you know, kind of come charging down after us throwing 0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:18.120 maple syrup bombs anytime soon. I think our Canadian buddies 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.840 and we're all friends. It's all gonna be fine. So 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:24.800 why all the hysteria, you know why they because they 0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:31.719 just did everything hate tramp. I'm I'm actually a little 0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:35.080 surprised they don't get more tired of it, the same thing, 0:06:36.080 --> 0:06:40.560 day in and day out, the same nonsense. Such a 0:06:40.600 --> 0:06:43.400 bunch of little whiners. And they don't bring anything from 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:45.839 the table, you know, they don't bring anything worthwhile to 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:49.080 these discussions. They're all just reporting on each other's reporting. 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:52.200 It's gotta start with that. It's very little interesting original 0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:54.680 reporting that any of them are doing anyway, and so 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:56.520 then it's just a questionable what are the stories that 0:06:56.520 --> 0:06:59.160 they choose to cover and how do they cover them. 0:06:59.160 --> 0:07:04.360 That's a much more important barometer for bias then whether 0:07:04.480 --> 0:07:08.480 something is covered, because everyone's covering the same crap, right, 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:11.720 Everyone chases everybody else with this stuff, So it's all 0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:13.440 about how it fits in the narrative and what else 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:16.560 is out there. But you know, let's just take a 0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.119 step back from it, because I know, the G seven 0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:19.680 thing happened for the weekend, we're got we got North 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:22.960 Korea to get to, although I mean technically Singapore to 0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:26.720 get to. But the summit with North Korea. It's it 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:30.720 hasn't happened yet, So once again we're stuck in this. Okay, 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.920 well they're there, but they haven't in the meetings. But 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:37.120 they're there, and here's what's at stake, and we've been 0:07:37.120 --> 0:07:39.600 talking about that a lot. We'll see. We need to 0:07:39.640 --> 0:07:42.080 moderate our expectations. I think it's gonna be good. I 0:07:42.080 --> 0:07:46.000 don't think it's gonna be amazing. Blow your mind, Oh 0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:47.960 my gosh. Trump has saved the planet. I but I 0:07:47.960 --> 0:07:50.360 think I think it'll be I think the outcome could 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:53.880 be positive. I'm yes, I will say it. I am 0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:58.800 cautiously optimistic about Singapore. I am not betting on Singapore. 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:02.000 We shall see, we'll get there. But but the trade 0:08:02.040 --> 0:08:06.360 and tariff discussion is fascinating because Trump has changed the 0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:08.960 way we talk about it, the same way that with immigration. 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:13.239 Now we can have discussions about, well, is this really 0:08:13.320 --> 0:08:17.200 in our interest? Is our immigration policy in in Americans interests? 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:20.200 Not what does the U N think? Not what do 0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:23.080 elite mediate calumness on the coast or whatever. We're not 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.240 what they think about it? Is this something that we 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:30.240 believe is good for us? And with immigration, he's he's 0:08:30.320 --> 0:08:36.120 single handedly changed things with trade. He has also changed 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:39.560 the discussion. Now people are like, oh, you mean that 0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:43.560 there really is a whatever two sevent dairy tariff in 0:08:43.640 --> 0:08:46.160 place with with Canada in the US. That seems that 0:08:46.200 --> 0:08:50.199 seems rather punitive. And and that's where you get in 0:08:50.280 --> 0:08:52.520 this whole exchange with by the way they had they're 0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:55.480 gonna put some kind of a communica out there. What 0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:58.320 does it? What does that even mean anyway? It's like, 0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:01.680 there has no but and it's not legally binding. It 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:05.040 doesn't really mean anything. It's just like, yeah, here's a 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:06.960 statement of principles. You know, I guess what. The Soviet 0:09:07.040 --> 0:09:09.560 Union had a great constitution that said everybody gets free healthcare. 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:11.240 It doesn't mean that it happened. I mean, I know 0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:16.320 that an extreme example. But but Trudeau, after the meeting 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:20.160 with Trump, Trudeau decided to get a little hissy and 0:09:20.160 --> 0:09:23.680 this is what happened. Play five. I highlighted directly to 0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:29.199 the President that Canadians um did not take it lightly 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:33.920 that the United States has moved forward with significant tariffs. 0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:38.080 It's kind of insulting. And I highlighted that it was 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:44.160 not helping in our renegotiation of NAFTA or polite we're reasonable, 0:09:44.200 --> 0:09:48.320 but we also will not be pushed around. What does 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:51.679 that you mean won't be pushed around? We're the negotiating 0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:59.240 over over tariffs. Right. A tariff is effectively attacks it is. 0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.200 It is a government tax on goods coming into that 0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:05.760 government's borders. It's in the short term at least Phil's 0:10:05.800 --> 0:10:09.320 government coffers, and it also helps domestic production. It gives 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:13.360 them an advantage visa either competition outside that has to 0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:17.200 deal with the tariffs. Right. It also raises prices for consumers. Right, 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:18.559 we know this is all the e com one I 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:21.720 want aspect of tariffs, but it's a much more complicated 0:10:21.760 --> 0:10:25.040 discussion than just I'm a free trader. It's like, that's 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.520 an easy thing to say, what does it mean? Because 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:31.319 we don't have free trade right now? And the fact 0:10:31.360 --> 0:10:33.720 that here we are. And by the way, even Trump's 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.480 well not as crazy as attractors because they actually think 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:38.360 that he's like a lizard in a human suit and 0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:41.080 came from Mars and you know that there and some 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:43.600 of them have like cable news shows, but they're completely 0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.960 out of their minds. But he is more honest. Trump 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.360 haters that will say he has been on this issue 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.760 of trade. He has been consistent for forty years or something. 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.880 Now he's been saying we're getting you know, we're getting 0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:59.600 messed up here. This is bad. And Trudeau goes out 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:01.520 there and as this stuff and look, this is what 0:11:01.559 --> 0:11:03.959 everybody was reporting on. Oh gosh, you know, now we've 0:11:03.960 --> 0:11:06.360 got some rift with our Canadian allies. It's not a 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:10.240 big deal. It's not a big deal. Peter Navarro, who 0:11:10.360 --> 0:11:14.160 is Trump's well not necessarily mean. I think Kudlow might 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.120 be his trade guru right now, but he's certainly in 0:11:16.120 --> 0:11:20.880 that conversation of top people with Trump and trade. And uh, actually, 0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:23.120 you know we can hear from Culdlow and Navarro play 0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:26.880 six and then seven. Please. There's a special place in 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:30.360 the hell for any foreign leader that engages in bad 0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:34.319 faith diplomacy with President Donald J. Trump and then tries 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:36.680 to stab him in the back on the way out 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:40.200 the door. And that's what bad faith justin Trudeau did 0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:43.920 with that stunt press conference. He says that we are 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:47.040 the problem with tariffs. They have enormous tariffs. I mean, 0:11:47.080 --> 0:11:49.840 they have tariffs on certain dairy and food products of 0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:54.360 a two D. He really kind of stabbed us in 0:11:54.400 --> 0:11:57.240 the back. He did a great disservice to the whole 0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:02.400 G seven. They were united in the G seven. They 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:07.760 came together. President Trump was charming, good faith, and they 0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:11.200 were getting along famously. President Trump actually, and this is 0:12:11.280 --> 0:12:13.640 music to my ears, Jake, he went through those two 0:12:13.720 --> 0:12:16.280 days the conference talking about the need for a new 0:12:16.480 --> 0:12:22.119 free trade system, no tariffs. We were coming together beautifully, okay, 0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.440 and then he goes out there and posed this amateur 0:12:24.520 --> 0:12:30.120 political stunt. Yeah, Trudeau was trying to play to his base. 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:31.680 So Trump said, you know what I am. I gonna 0:12:31.679 --> 0:12:33.959 sign your your your paper. You know I'm not. I'm 0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:37.920 not gonna be treated that way, especially when presidents on 0:12:38.080 --> 0:12:42.200 his way to this incredibly high stakes negotiation with North Korea. 0:12:42.720 --> 0:12:46.120 You can't have a close friend, which Canada's a close 0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:47.880 for I don't think Trudeau is necessarily close for me. 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:50.160 You can't have a close friend, you know, stepping on 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.320 a line like that without a bit of pushback. Again, 0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:55.040 it's within the family, Okay. No one's worried about our 0:12:55.040 --> 0:12:58.320 relationship with Canada. It's all gonna be fine. I mean, 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:02.080 you're basically a part of America anyway, Canada. I know, 0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:03.840 people get mad when you say it. But come on, 0:13:03.920 --> 0:13:08.800 let's be real. You're like America Junior and colder um. 0:13:08.920 --> 0:13:10.800 Trump made this very clear that what does he want? 0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:15.280 What what's the basis of the G seven? Uh did 0:13:15.280 --> 0:13:17.960 you seven? Terror situation that he would like? And here's 0:13:17.960 --> 0:13:22.800 what he said, play it. I did. No tariffs, no barriers. 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.640 That's the way it should be. Let's say Canada, the 0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:31.319 United States pays tremendous tariffs on dairy as an example 0:13:31.400 --> 0:13:34.600 two hundred and sevent nobody knows that. So you go 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:37.600 tariff free, you go barrier free, you go subsidy free. 0:13:37.920 --> 0:13:40.280 That's the way you learned at the Wharton School of Finance. 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:43.520 It's gonna change. It's not a question of I hope 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:47.640 it changes. It's gonna change. And tariffs are gonna come 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:51.000 way down because people cannot continue to do that. We're 0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:54.280 like the piggy bank that everybody's robbing and that ends. 0:13:55.440 --> 0:13:58.200 You See, you don't have to be forget about all 0:13:58.240 --> 0:14:01.160 these people, all the expert that inventional wisdom. I mean, 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.679 Trump is a smasher of conventional wisdom in every sense, 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:08.679 you know, politically, with his rhetoric, with all across the board. 0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:14.400 You don't have to be an economics expert to see 0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:19.840 that something is amiss. There's a problem here. If tariffs 0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:22.920 are so bad and they lead to trade wars and 0:14:23.000 --> 0:14:25.640 all these horrible things, and trade wars lead to real wars, 0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:29.320 And why do so many countries have tariffs in place 0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:35.400 against us without any consequence? Are we just the chump 0:14:35.480 --> 0:14:37.520 in this situation that doesn't get to say, well, hold 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:40.280 on a second. Now, this is where some of my 0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:43.200 I don't know, I's gonna say, my liberal friends, but 0:14:43.200 --> 0:14:44.640 they would just yell at me more. But this is 0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:47.640 where people point out a book, America has tariffs too exactly. 0:14:48.440 --> 0:14:50.720 So let's look at you know what what tariffs are 0:14:50.720 --> 0:14:53.080 really important? Canada? What teriff really port in America? Can 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:56.280 we meet in the middle somewhere. It's a negotiation. This 0:14:56.360 --> 0:14:57.840 is what this is how it goes. This is what 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:00.320 it feels like. There's a little bit of given take. 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:03.400 You know. I've had to negotiate contracts for myself. I've 0:15:03.400 --> 0:15:05.800 had to negotiate all kinds of things in this media business. 0:15:06.160 --> 0:15:08.119 You don't get what you want on the first try. 0:15:08.200 --> 0:15:10.560 Sometimes you get a little, a little mythed, a little 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.720 annoyed when you feel like you're not being given you 0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:16.120 know what you should get or whatever. That's the nature 0:15:16.160 --> 0:15:18.720 of this, and you try it in good faith, get 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:22.240 to something that works for everybody. That's what Trump is 0:15:22.280 --> 0:15:27.480 trying here. He is single handedly changing the discussion on trade, 0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:31.880 on tariffs and once again with everyone to rate against them. 0:15:31.880 --> 0:15:33.320 And you know, I've been saying along, I want to 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:35.200 understand this more. I want to hear Trump out with 0:15:35.320 --> 0:15:38.440 every to rate against him. He's making a lot of 0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:40.320 headway here and for a lot of folks, he's making 0:15:40.400 --> 0:15:43.040 tremendous sense. We're talking more about trade, and then we'll 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:46.520 be getting into uh, some North Korea and what we 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:50.440 are whatever, the North Korea summit in Singapore and UH, 0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:53.240 and then just some general economy thoughts as well, where 0:15:53.240 --> 0:15:55.520 the economy is right now. We we have a jam 0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:58.600 a jam pack show eight fock. If you want to 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:02.400 chat eight four for nine, eight to five, we will 0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:08.920 be right back. If I'm not so sure, a majority 0:16:08.960 --> 0:16:12.200 of Americans believe that globalization and free trade is in 0:16:12.240 --> 0:16:15.480 our interests. I believe that John McCain believes it. But 0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:19.680 the reason we're having these problems here at home brexit Itadaly, 0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:22.760 there's a movement all over the world. Uh to look 0:16:22.800 --> 0:16:25.360 inward not outward. And I think it's a mistake. But 0:16:25.480 --> 0:16:28.800 I'm not so sure. Most Americans agree with John McCain 0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:34.040 and Lindsay Graham. I'm alive it. I mean Lindsey Graham 0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:38.520 saying that that he believes in globalism, our globalization. Sorry, 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.760 that was that was a bit freudy. He believes in globalization. 0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:44.400 That is what he said, globalist illuminaty. No, but I 0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:48.480 mean he believes in globalization. Is not uh is not 0:16:48.520 --> 0:16:51.320 telling us anything. Globalization is a process that's happening all 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:54.000 around us all the time. This is about specific trade 0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:57.560 agreements with specific countries. International trade is premised upon agreements. 0:16:57.600 --> 0:16:59.840 It's not just a thing. There's no state of na 0:17:00.080 --> 0:17:06.200 sure of international trade. Countries make deals. The deals can 0:17:06.240 --> 0:17:10.040 be bad or good or somewhere in between. Why do 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:14.000 we think that we have some uh some perfect you know, 0:17:14.680 --> 0:17:17.520 status quo. It doesn't make any sense. But I want 0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:19.560 to also bring in producer Mike had a story for us. 0:17:19.760 --> 0:17:24.680 Producer Mike, what happened? It's exciting? Here we go, he's 0:17:24.760 --> 0:17:26.760 he's he's I catch him off guards sometimes? What do 0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:28.879 he got? Producer Mike? I had my first running with 0:17:28.960 --> 0:17:31.520 a Freedom Hut fan this weekend live and in person. 0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:36.600 Really what happened. I was out well a friend of UH, 0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:40.080 A couple of people and UH a girl who I'm 0:17:40.080 --> 0:17:43.320 friends with. She had a couple coming into town and 0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:45.399 they wanted to stop by the building and she said, oh, 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:47.040 this is my friend Angela, who's a big fan of 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:50.760 Buck Sexton and her husband who is a pilot in 0:17:50.800 --> 0:17:54.600 the Air Force. I was there, um, and they are 0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:57.119 fans of the show and they were calling me producer 0:17:57.160 --> 0:17:59.400 Mike all night and it was there a lot of fun. 0:17:59.440 --> 0:18:00.760 She's like she can about to me. He said, your 0:18:00.760 --> 0:18:03.200 producer Bike and gave me a big hug. And she 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:07.880 loves the show. Um. She's a millennial um in thirties, 0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:10.000 and she was very happy that there's somebody out there 0:18:10.000 --> 0:18:12.040 with the voice who was saying a lot of things 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:13.520 she was thinking. So it was pretty cool. Thank you 0:18:13.560 --> 0:18:15.359 so much, And can we still give little shout out 0:18:15.400 --> 0:18:18.520 to Angel and Jamie. Angel and Jamie, thank you guys 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:21.879 for listening and always always appreciated. I can tell you 0:18:21.920 --> 0:18:24.520 I was, I was on and I never got to 0:18:24.560 --> 0:18:27.280 say a real thank you to people. Years ago pre 0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:30.159 Miss Molly before MS Molly came along. I was on 0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.879 a first date actually, and I was walking down the 0:18:32.880 --> 0:18:37.200 street and I saw to like team buck Oss folks 0:18:37.280 --> 0:18:39.920 who were happy to be visiting New York and they 0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:42.320 were like, fucking there the other ms big deal of it, 0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.919 and I was like, this is awesome. It's like the 0:18:44.960 --> 0:18:47.040 first time in a long time I've been like, yeah, 0:18:47.480 --> 0:18:51.840 like radio show love it it. The girl, rather the 0:18:51.920 --> 0:18:54.119 young woman, I should say, rather lovely she was like, 0:18:54.119 --> 0:18:56.520 oh my gosh, like they made such a big deal 0:18:56.560 --> 0:19:00.160 over you. And I was like, well, were thinking each 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:03.360 other as peers, honey, because we are. But I'm kind 0:19:03.400 --> 0:19:07.000 of a big deal. So my my library smells of 0:19:07.080 --> 0:19:09.960 rich mahogany. I've actually never had a library. I'm lucky 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:12.040 to have a bookshelf in my tiny apartment. But anyway, 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:13.639 it was a fun one. Uh where do we ever? 0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:15.880 Beck a Heindrix up next? Is that? Is that? What's happening? 0:19:16.160 --> 0:19:19.840 We got a nuke and missile expert joining us to 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.080 talk about what are we really gonna do here? How 0:19:22.119 --> 0:19:24.080 long would it take? How does it work? How do 0:19:24.119 --> 0:19:26.879 you denuclearize? If you're walking us through some of that process, 0:19:27.160 --> 0:19:30.440 which is maybe putting the I CBM ahead of the horse. 0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:32.640 That didn't really work. But you know what I mean, 0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:34.520 maybe it's getting a little ahead of things, but I 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:36.800 feel like it's an important discussion to have because you've 0:19:36.800 --> 0:19:41.880 got high stakes nuclear diplomacy happening. Well, yeah, right, right 0:19:42.000 --> 0:19:43.920 right now. I forget what time it is in Singapore. 0:19:43.960 --> 0:19:46.520 It's probably in the morning. It's gonna be happening pretty soon. 0:19:46.560 --> 0:20:00.280 Here he's holding the line for America. Buck Sexton is act. 0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:06.119 The context for these discussions is radically different than ever before. 0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:10.399 The backdrop against which these negotiations are taking President Trump 0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:13.919 has said, UH in a way that is fundamentally different 0:20:14.160 --> 0:20:18.520 than before. UH. Presidents made very clear until such time 0:20:18.560 --> 0:20:21.919 as we get the outcome that we're demanding, economic relief 0:20:21.960 --> 0:20:24.639 is not going to be provided. That's different. There was 0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:26.840 always this hypothesis is that somewhere along the way, the 0:20:26.880 --> 0:20:30.960 Americans would take their foot off and allow those economic 0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:35.720 opportunities for the North and thereby reduced the capacity to 0:20:35.840 --> 0:20:38.200 actually achieve the deal. We're not going to do that. 0:20:38.520 --> 0:20:41.080 So these discussions that will take place tomorrow between Chairman 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:45.480 Kim and President Trump will set the framework for the 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:47.600 hard work that will follow, and we'll see how far 0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:50.400 we get. But I am very optimistic that we will 0:20:50.440 --> 0:20:53.480 have a successful outcome from tomorrow's meeting between these two leaders. 0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:58.840 The completely, verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of the Career Peninsula 0:20:58.880 --> 0:21:01.840 is the only outcome that the United States will accept. 0:21:03.000 --> 0:21:05.919 Sanctions where we remain until North Korea completely and verifiably 0:21:05.920 --> 0:21:10.160 eliminates its weapons of mass destruction programs. If diplomacy does 0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:12.159 not move in the right direction, and we are hopeful 0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:15.719 that it will continue to do so, those measures will increase. 0:21:18.000 --> 0:21:20.359 There you have Secretary of State Pompeo. He is in 0:21:20.480 --> 0:21:24.200 Singapore right now with the commander in chief himself, President Trump. 0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:28.240 Kim Jong un has also landed. He is making the 0:21:28.320 --> 0:21:30.760 rounds and is is certainly a site for a lot 0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:33.760 of folks to see if the furthest he has ever been, 0:21:33.840 --> 0:21:37.919 I believe from North Korea since becoming the dictator of 0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:40.639 that country. What do we think is going to happen 0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:43.640 behind closed doors here? What are they trying to achieve? 0:21:44.200 --> 0:21:46.000 And we'll get into as much of the specifics on 0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:49.520 the d nuclearization side as we can to help us 0:21:49.560 --> 0:21:52.159 with that. We've got Rebecca Heinrich's on the line. She 0:21:52.320 --> 0:21:55.280 is a Senior Fellow at the Hudson Institute. She is 0:21:55.280 --> 0:21:57.800 an expert on missiles and nukes and things that go 0:21:58.000 --> 0:22:00.640 boom in the biggest way. Rebecca gread to have you 0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:04.320 great to be here. Thanks, all right, So let's let's 0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:07.639 talk for a moment about the d nuclearization side of this. 0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.639 You know you you study missiles day in and day 0:22:10.640 --> 0:22:14.680 are you how how does that process? Let's just say 0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:18.320 walk me through. Trump and and Kim sit down and 0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:21.480 he goes, you know what, let's do this. We will 0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:24.840 do nuclearize, assuming you know, promises are in place and 0:22:24.880 --> 0:22:28.120 the economic relief comes, we will de nuclearized. How does 0:22:28.160 --> 0:22:32.680 that actually happen? Like, what are the steps in that process? Sure? Well, 0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:36.080 the first thing that needs to happen is, uh, there 0:22:36.119 --> 0:22:38.800 needs to be a common understanding of definitions and so 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:42.359 that that hasn't happened yet. You played that great clip 0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:44.600 from Secretary of State Pompeo, and I believe it was 0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:48.040 that same press conference where he answered the question. One 0:22:48.080 --> 0:22:51.960
