1 00:00:01,680 --> 00:00:04,160 Speaker 1: And I've been saying that for twenty years. Very simply, 2 00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,120 Speaker 1: Iran cannot have a new clear weapon. I can't say 3 00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,640 Speaker 1: that right. You don't seriously think I'm going to answer 4 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: that question that means I've had it. 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 2: Okay, I've had it. 6 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:15,680 Speaker 1: I give up no more. Who're not looking for a ceasefire, 7 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:17,799 Speaker 1: We're looking for a total, complete victory. 8 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 2: Seventy nine percent of adults agree on that they agree 9 00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,280 Speaker 2: with Donald Trump Ron can not get a nuclear weapon. 10 00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:26,840 Speaker 3: You're listening to the forty seven Morning Update with Ben ferguson. 11 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,960 Speaker 4: Good Thursday morning. So nice to have you with us 12 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 4: on the forty seven Morning Update, and we have a 13 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,479 Speaker 4: lot to talk about this morning, including the latest rhetoric 14 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 4: from the President United States of America about a real 15 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 4: possibility that the US may get involved in airstrikes on 16 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 4: Iran nuclear facilities.

We're also going to talk 18 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 4: about Democrats who are now siding with the President as 19 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,879 Speaker 4: well and what they are saying. And finally, there's a 20 00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 4: big myth that there's a big divide within the conservative 21 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 4: movement over what to do with Iran. New polling numbers 22 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 4: also show that is a lie. In fact, the majority 23 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:08,319 Speaker 4: of conservatives stand overwhelmingly with Donald Trump. It's the forty 24 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 4: seven Morning Update and it starts right. 25 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,199 Speaker 3: Now, story number one. 26 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 4: We're getting new breaking news and this is moving very 27 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 4: quickly with what's happening between Iran, Israel, and now the 28 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 4: United States of America. With a new statement that has 29 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,199 Speaker 4: just come out from Donald Trump saying, quote, we don't 30 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 4: want a long term war with Iran. President Donald Trump 31 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 4: making it clear that the administration is not looking for 32 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 4: long term war. In a second statement, Trump addressing concerns 33 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 4: among members of the Make America Gritagan base that the 34 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 4: United States would be pulled into a quote long term 35 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,319 Speaker 4: war while filling a question from the media, Take a 36 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,200 Speaker 4: listen to his own words outside of the White House. 37 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 5: Some of the people in the base don't want a long 38 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 5: term war. They're afraid that we're going to get into 39 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 5: a long term We're looking for a long term We're looking 40 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 5: to Earth. It's only I only want one thing. Iran 41 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 5: cannot have a nuclear weapon. 42 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: That's it. I'm not looking long term for him. And 43 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: I've been saying that for twenty years. I've been saying 44 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: that this is a civilian who got a lot of publicity. 45 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 1: People would cover it very simply. Iran cannot have a 46 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. It's not a question of anything else. And 47 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 1: if you did, you wouldn't have much of a country 48 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 1: because they would use it on us, and would use 49 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:17,839 Speaker 1: it on other people. 50 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,560 Speaker 4: And they'd be a terror all over the world. We're 51 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 4: not looking for long term more. I only want one thing. 52 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 4: Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. That is it. Very simply, 53 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 4: he said in another interview, Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. 54 00:02:30,560 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 4: It's not a question of anything else. And if you did, 55 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 4: you wouldn't have much of a country because they would 56 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 4: use it on us and use it on other people, 57 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 4: and they'd be a tear all over the world. Trump 58 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 4: notally tweeted back in twenty eleven, before he even enter 59 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 4: the political world, that quote, I Ran cannot have a 60 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 4: nuclear weapon and has been firm in it stands throughout 61 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 4: his political career and his presidential campaign in twenty twenty four. 62 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 4: If you go back to the doctrine of Donald Trump, 63 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 4: look at November fourth, two thousand eleven, his exact tweet. 64 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 4: Iran's quest for nuclear weapons is a major threat to 65 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 4: our nation's national security interests. We cannot allow Ran to 66 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 4: go nuclear. That was before he was running for any office. 67 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 4: In fact, that's actually when he was a Democrat. Trump 68 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 4: notably gave Iran a sixty day deadline that expired on Thursday, 69 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 4: June twelfth to make a deal to end its nuclear program, 70 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 4: and then on Friday, Israel began striking Iranian nuclear sites, 71 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 4: military leaders, and refineries. Trump declared Tuesday, quote, we have 72 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 4: complete and total control of the skies of Iran and 73 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 4: revealed his team new the exact location of the leader 74 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 4: of Iran. When asked Wednesday if the US was moving 75 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 4: closer to striking Iranian nuclear sites, here is what Trump 76 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 4: said about that, about. 77 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 6: Whether you are moving closer? You believe the US is 78 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 6: moving closer to striking Iranian nuclear facilities? 79 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 5: Where's your mindset on that? 80 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: I can't say that, right. You don't seriously think I'm 81 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: going to answer that. Quay, will you strike the Iranian 82 00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: nuclear component? And what time exactly? 83 00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 4: Sir sir? 84 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:04,120 Speaker 1: Would you strike it? Would you please inform us so 85 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: we can be there and watch. I mean, you don't 86 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: know that I'm going to even do it. You don't know. 87 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: I may do it, I may not do it. I mean, 88 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: nobody knows what I'm going to do. I can tell 89 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 1: you this that Aram's got a lot of trouble and 90 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 1: they want to negotiate. And I said, what didn't you 91 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 1: negotiate with me before all this death and destruction? Why 92 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: int you nego? I said the people, why didn't you 93 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: negotiate with me two weeks ago? You could have done fine. 94 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: You would have had a country. It's very sad to 95 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: watch this. I mean, I've never said anything like it, 96 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: so you neveryone thought it was going to be the reverse. 97 00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: I didn't think so. And they're telling him you got 98 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: to you got to do something, You got to negotiate. 99 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 1: And at the end, last minute, they said, no, we're 100 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 1: not going to do that, and they got hit. Remember 101 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: sixty days, And then came the sixty sixty one is 102 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: going to become a very famous number. That was one 103 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 1: hell of a hit, that first hit. That was one 104 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: hell of a hit. Not sustainable, to be honest. That's 105 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 1: where it ended. It ended on the first night. Yes, 106 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 1: too late, though. 107 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 2: Do you think it's too late to now? 108 00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: Really, nothing's too late. 109 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 4: President Trump making it clear this is something that is 110 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 4: on the table which brings us to the latest breaking 111 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 4: news and what is being reported just a moment ago 112 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 4: on Fox News Channel that Donald Trump has in fact 113 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 4: approved attack plans against Iran. 114 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 7: Fox Who's alert the Iatola has gone into hiding. He's 115 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 7: believed to be holed up inside an underground bunker northeast 116 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 7: of the Capitol. This is a different kind of Iranian 117 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 7: hostage crisis. Komane can hide, but he can't run. For 118 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 7: the past twenty four hours, Israel's been attacking the area 119 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 7: around his underground layer, but Kamane still talking tough. Says 120 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,240 Speaker 7: Iran will not surrender to anyone, and is warning that 121 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 7: if America joins the fight and strikes, it'll result in 122 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 7: irreparable damage to the United States. Is he bluffing, We 123 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 7: don't know. Iranian proxies, which have been severely degraded, are 124 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 7: threatening to commit acts of terror against American troops and 125 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 7: American ships in the region, and American businesses are now 126 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 7: bracing for cyber attacks. Trump says, good luck with that. 127 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 7: We won't be bullied. 128 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 5: I was the hunted and now I'm the hunter. It's 129 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 5: a big difference. 130 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 6: That means I've had it. 131 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: Okay, I've had it. 132 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: I give up no more, then we go blow up 133 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 1: all and you know, all the nuclear stuff that's all 134 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 1: over the place. Then now they had bad intentions, you 135 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: know the for forty years they've been saying death to American, 136 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: death to Israel, and death to anybody else that they 137 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: didn't like. They were bullies. They were schoolyard bullies. And 138 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: now they're not bullies anymore. 139 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 7: Trump's been meeting in the situation room with his National 140 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 7: Security team Head of Central Command, Army General Eric Carilla, 141 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 7: they call them the Gorilla has been instrumental in the 142 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 7: war planning the Pentagons, sending in their new state of 143 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,800 Speaker 7: the art supercarrier, the USS Gerald Ford, and amassing a 144 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 7: tremendous amount of assets in the area. Today, Trump had 145 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 7: lunch with Pakistan's army chief. Pakistan borders Iran. Seems like 146 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 7: something's about to happen. And this is just breaking. The 147 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 7: Wall Street journal is reporting Trump privately approved attack plans 148 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 7: against Iran. Now we don't know what these plans entail, 149 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 7: but we're told they include US air strikes. Unsure if 150 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 7: that includes bunker Busters. Remember, the latest version of the 151 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 7: bunker Buster has never been used on the battlefield. It's 152 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 7: only been tested Axios reports that Trump has been quizzing 153 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 7: as generals. Are they sure if he uses them they'll 154 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 7: be one hundred percent effective? The generals say yes, but 155 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 7: Trump's not completely convinced. Caroline Levitt says all options remain 156 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 7: on the table. Trump's been waiting on giving the final order, 157 00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 7: seeing if the Iranians give up and surrender their new 158 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 7: program peacefully. Sources in DC say Trump's out of patience 159 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 7: and Iran's up against the clock. 160 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 3: I believe that unlesser On surrenders in the next forty 161 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 3: eight hours, the United States, in conjunction with Israel, will 162 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 3: engage in military action. 163 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 7: Trump says the Iranians want to fly all the way 164 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 7: to the White House to negotiate an end to this, 165 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 7: but he says it's too late. He doesn't appear to 166 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 7: be open to long drawn out negotiations where he gets 167 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 7: strung along like last time. 168 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: We're not looking for a ceasefire. We're looking for a total, 169 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: complete victory. 170 00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 2: Again. 171 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: You know what the victory is no nuclear weapon. 172 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 7: Trump's made a decision. Iran's nuclear program is gone. The 173 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 7: person who ultimately decides that is the Isatola. He can 174 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 7: either let us do it peacefully or we'll do it violently. 175 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 2: But either way, the. 176 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 7: Outcome of this war is this, the Iranians will never 177 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 7: be able to acquire a nuclear weapon. 178 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 4: Now, the second part of this story is this, will 179 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 4: the supreme leader of Iran come to the negotiating table 180 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 4: and actually stop the nuclear program. They may be wanting 181 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 4: to send people to the White House, but here's what 182 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 4: the actual Iatoa says. He has a stark warning directed 183 00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,679 Speaker 4: both at the US and Israel. In fact, he declared 184 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 4: today the battle begins, stating there would be quote no 185 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,559 Speaker 4: mercy for the terrorist Zionis regime of Israel. He also 186 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 4: criticized the US President trump calls for Iran's unconincial surrender, 187 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,559 Speaker 4: asserting that Iran will never quote unquote surrender and that 188 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 4: any US military action would cause irreparable damage. Iran's you 189 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 4: An ambassador echoed that any direct US involvement alongside Israel 190 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:07,079 Speaker 4: would trigger their own firm response. Iradian Foreign Ministry spokesman 191 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 4: went further, warning the US intervention could spark an all 192 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 4: out war across the entire region. Now, let me say 193 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,840 Speaker 4: one other thing that's very interesting about all this is 194 00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 4: what's happening within the Democratic Party. Many Democrats are staying 195 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 4: silent on this, but some are willing to stand up 196 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 4: and stand on the issue, actually backing Donald Trump and 197 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 4: saying we need to go even further. Insert Democratic Senator 198 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 4: John Fetterman. Here's what he had to say on Fox 199 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 4: News Channel with Bill Hemmer. 200 00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 7: Say, show no mercy and if you have to take 201 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 7: the supreme leader out, do it? 202 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 1: Explain your position now. 203 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 6: Sir, Yeah, yeah, I think they should have targeted him, 204 00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 6: absolutely gone taking them out. I think the way Israel operates, 205 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 6: they just take out the leadership, just like they did 206 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:56,960 Speaker 6: with Hesbola, and they've already done that with the Iranian leadership, 207 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 6: just took them out even laying in their beds, and 208 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 6: they didn't take down the whole building. They actually targeted 209 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 6: where they lay in bed. And now they eliminated the 210 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,320 Speaker 6: military ones and the nuclear ones. That's magnificent and the 211 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 6: precision which they've done that. And I don't know why 212 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 6: they would have left the leader out. 213 00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 7: What comes after that if that reality were to take place? 214 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 6: Senator Well, I think the reality is is that that 215 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 6: you have a nation that just is in a position 216 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 6: where they have to be held accountable for what they've done. 217 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,680 Speaker 6: They are the ones that built and created the proxies 218 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 6: like Hamas and Hezbollah and put our whole region in 219 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 6: this kind of chaos, And now they clearly have nuclear ambitions, 220 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 6: and now I think it's entirely I'm not sure if 221 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 6: I might have been the only one constantly calling them 222 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 6: to just take this facility out and to use the 223 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 6: B two and those gigantic bunker buster ones and partner 224 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 6: up with Israel what they've. 225 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 4: Done, Fetterman saying, I call on Israel to eliminate the 226 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 4: Supreme leader without mercy. So that brings us to the 227 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:00,719 Speaker 4: latest point where we are now. Is there a very 228 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: good chance that Donald Trump could in fact order that 229 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 4: we attack Iran's nuclear sites with those bunker busting bombs. 230 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 4: The answer is yes. Would there be bipartisan support, clearly? 231 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,680 Speaker 4: John Fetterman says he will join others in the Republican 232 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 4: Party advocating for this, Which brings me to my final point, 233 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 4: what are the American people think about the president stands? Well? 234 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 4: Apparently in new polling, America stands overwhelmingly with Donald Trump 235 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 4: and Israel by staggeringly large numbers. Nearly seventy percent of 236 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 4: Americans say US air strikes to stop Iran's nuclear ambitions 237 00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:39,960 Speaker 4: are appropriate, and the best part about it is who 238 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 4: had to report it, CNN. Listen carefully, and. 239 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:45,480 Speaker 2: Overall, I feel like there's more support for Donald Trump's 240 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 2: positions than is comically acknowledged opposer Ran getting a nuclear weapon. 241 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: I mean, look at this, Seventy nine percent of adults 242 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,080 Speaker 2: agree on that they agree with Donald Trump. Ron cannot 243 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: get a nuclear weapon, eighty three percent of Republicans, seventy 244 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 2: nine percent of Independence, seventy nine percent of Democrats. When 245 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 2: you got seventy nine percent of Doday, Democrats and eighty 246 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,640 Speaker 2: three percent of Republicans agreeing on anything, you know that 247 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,400 Speaker 2: that position is the very clear majority in this country. 248 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 2: And so the American public is with Donald Trump. They 249 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,079 Speaker 2: definitely opposed in Ron getting nuclear weapons. So this is 250 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 2: a nuance here. But you know Trump and Ntiniajoe both 251 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,000 Speaker 2: arguing that iron is close to being capable of making 252 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon. 253 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,040 Speaker 6: If that is the case, what is the feeling of Americans. 254 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 2: As to whether the United States should get. 255 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 7: Involved in this conflict? 256 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: Right? 257 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 2: If you buy Donald Trump's theory of the case. And 258 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,599 Speaker 2: I think that's important to note. This is polling from 259 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 2: April for Ranch trying to make a nuclear weapon. Look 260 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 2: at this overall, you get the slight plurality, I mean 261 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 2: it's within the margin amber, but the slight plurality of 262 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 2: Americans actually favor US air strikes compared to forty seven 263 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: percent opposing it. Now here's the other Nuggetill note right, 264 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: there's been a lot of talk online and on social 265 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,360 Speaker 2: media and in podcasts of a divide within the Republican ranks, 266 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 2: but here on this question if Ranch trying to make 267 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 2: a nuclear weapon, look at that sixty nine percent of Republicans. 268 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 2: The clear vast majority of Republicans favor US air strikes 269 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 2: on run on their nuclear facilities. 270 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 4: No doubt President Trump as a support of the American 271 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 4: people in overwhelming and staggering numbers. And for anyone out 272 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:07,920 Speaker 4: there that's trying to tell you there's some massive divide 273 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 4: within MAGA country, they're just wrong. Basically, seventy percent of 274 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 4: the GOP favor US air strikes. This is a major 275 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 4: number on such a quote controversial issue. So there may 276 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,439 Speaker 4: actually be just propaganda's out there, just like Tucker Carlson, 277 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 4: who are trying to act like there's some big divide 278 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 4: when clearly the Republican Party is standing with Donald Trump. 279 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 3: Thank you for listening to the forty seven Morning Update 280 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 3: with Ben Ferguson.
