Speaker 1: This is the warning. Things are happening fast. The world
Speaker 1: is changing in an instant. The United States of America,
Speaker 1: the greatest force for liberty and freedom, human rights, and
Speaker 1: human dignity, has suddenly switched sides. It has embraced the
Speaker 1: madness of a Russian dictator's aggressive war, a criminal war
Speaker 1: in Ukraine. This war in Ukraine was not started by
Speaker 1: the Ukrainians. It was started by Vladimir Putin. The suggestion
Speaker 1: by Donald Trump that President Zelenski is a dictator is
Speaker 1: a lie. It's obscene and it's absurd. President Zelenski is
Speaker 1: the leader of a nation. He was elected to lead
Speaker 1: that nation. That nation, Ukraine is at war because Vladimir
Speaker 1: Putin does not respect the right of Ukraine to exist,
Speaker 1: and he's made this clear many many times. What Donald
Speaker 1: Trump has done is agree with Vladimir Putin. In fact,
Speaker 1: the Trump administration has nullified the existence of Ukraine by
Speaker 1: negotiating with the Russians in Saudi Arabia without a representative
Speaker 1: of the Ukrainian government. It is obscene for an American
Speaker 1: president to demand the breakup and the carving up of
Speaker 1: a sovereign nation, a nation that's fighting a war to
Speaker 1: defend that sovereignty. It's even more obscene that the president
Speaker 1: of the United States would hand that leader a document demanding,
Speaker 1: really in an extortion letter, all of that nation's minerals
Speaker 1: and wealth that it should be handed over. There is
Speaker 1: something special about the United States. Mostly it's that we're
Speaker 1: the only country in the world made up of all
Speaker 1: of the peoples of the world where every language known
Speaker 1: to mankind is spoken commonly every day. This nation, made
Speaker 1: up of all the world's people, has done more good
Speaker 1: in the world than any other nation in world history.
Speaker 1: We have fed more people, liberated more people, cured more people,
Speaker 1: we have lit the world. And now the President has
Speaker 1: presented the United States to the world as a gangster state,
Speaker 1: a powerful nation ready to exploit and shake down the
Speaker 1: little ones. And by the way, when Donald Trump talks
Speaker 1: about Canada has no legitimate right to exist, it is
Speaker 1: Putin's language, is language about Ukraine. What is it that
Speaker 1: we are to look forward to? Is it? Deceeve Vladimir
Speaker 1: Putin and Donald Trump standing next to President for Life
Speaker 1: g in Red Square on May ninth for the victory parade.
Speaker 1: We live in a moment where the entire world's order
Speaker 1: that has sustained peace and the upward prosperity, an advancement
Speaker 1: of mankind for eighty years, is falling apart for no
Speaker 1: good reason at all whatsoever other than the whim of
Speaker 1: Donald Trump. Americans will rue the day that the United
Speaker 1: States stabbed its allies in the back and broke faith
Speaker 1: with the concept and ideas and ideals of freedom. It
Speaker 1: is an abomination. Our national honor has been stained, our
Speaker 1: national character has been tarnished, and all of it is
Speaker 1: because of Donald Trump, the most shameful president in the
Speaker 1: history of the American Republic, which he is hard at
Speaker 1: work attacking, trying to tear down, assaulting the rule of
Speaker 1: law at the Justice Department, appointing the most unfit cabinet
Speaker 1: in American history. This is a moment of danger. We
Speaker 1: are on the edge of momentous events and they will
Speaker 1: be very costly. There will be a high price to
Speaker 1: pay for the insanity that the American people let loose
Speaker 1: with forty nine zero point nine percent of the vote,
Speaker 1: when they gave the country to a man who disdains democracy,
Speaker 1: and no one cared. This is the warning. I'm Steve Schmidt.
