1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: I have been struck by something. After the fifty nine 2 00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: Tomahawks were launched into Syria, there were a bunch of Trumpists, 3 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 1: famous Trumpists, who were not happy, and he began treating 4 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 1: immediately that Trump said he would never do. This is 5 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: not America first, This is not putting American first, is 6 00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,279 Speaker 1: not making America great again. Trump said he wouldn't be 7 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: doing these kinds of military interventions anymore. So I began 8 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: to think, is that true. Did Trump campaign by commonly, frequently, 9 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: reliably promising there would not be any US military intervention abroad. 10 00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 1: That's another question I must put to you Trumpists, because 11 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: I think back on I realized a lot of people 12 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: into herpreted that that is what Trump meant when he 13 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 1: said put America first, and he was talking about NATO. 14 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: With NATO, he never said NATO had to go away. 15 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: He just said that people running they're not paying unfair share, 16 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 1: and we're not going to continue to pay way beyond 17 00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 1: our our our share here. We're not going to bear 18 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 1: the burden. If NATO's gonna mean anything, these people gotta 19 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: play ball. By the same token, I was trying to 20 00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,959 Speaker 1: remember last night. I googled it, looked around I couldn't 21 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:37,960 Speaker 1: find consistent as in white paper policy positions, Trump claiming 22 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:44,319 Speaker 1: consistently and often that there would never be any military 23 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 1: intervention around the world. But boy did people think that's 24 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: what he meant. There was a lot of interpretation putting 25 00:01:54,280 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: America first, making America first, making America great amer area only, 26 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 1: no more wars in the Middle East. Like pab you 27 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: can and definitely thought that's what Trump meant. Pat's not happy. 28 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: Pat wasn't happy. When you've heard the first of fifty 29 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: nine tomahawks got launched. He did not think. He thought 30 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: those days were over. A lot of prominent Trump hasts 31 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: thought those days were over and thought that's what Trump was. 32 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 1: He's attacking trade deals, he's attacking TPP NAFT in all 33 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: this and criticizing Obama for his you know, half baked 34 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:41,680 Speaker 1: military maneuvers around the world, but actually assuring or promising 35 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: people that the days of the United States intervening around 36 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: the world were over. I just I don't I don't 37 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: think I remember that as a staple of the campaign. 38 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: How about you, Mr Snurdley, do you remember that as 39 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: a staple of Trump's campaign? When you think about you 40 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: think about Trump and the campaign, and you apply what 41 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: you remember from the campaign to the way he's governing. 42 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,840 Speaker 1: Does that like you? You you inform me earlier. He's 43 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: consistent as he can be. An immigration. They're not waffling 44 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 1: on it at all. They're not waffling on bringing jobs, 45 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 1: on American economic upward mobility, all this stuff fixing healthcare 46 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 1: by the way, Mark Meadows saying they may have a 47 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: replacement bill before the recess on healthcare. Oh, here's another 48 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: one where they very public Trump is to think that 49 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: the president was going to harold a new era of isolationism, 50 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: which is really what I guess that's what they thought 51 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: Trump was. I thought he was an isolationist. Make America 52 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: great again, and only make America. We're not gonna make 53 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: anybody else great again. They're on their own. We're gonna 54 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: make ourselves great and do whatever it takes to make 55 00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: ourselves great. And that's it. Well, the United States has 56 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: just dropped the largest non nuclear weapon in our arsenal 57 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 1: on an Isis tunnel in Afghanistan. Again, the largest non 58 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: nuclear bomb in our arsenal has for the first time 59 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 1: been deployed. It's been dropped, It's been used on an 60 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: Isis tunnel in Afghanistan. Bomb was dropped in the Nangarre province. 61 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: The Pentagon is confirmed last radius believed to be over 62 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 1: three of football field. Essentially, the weapon is described as 63 00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: the Father of all bombs, not the mother of all bombs, 64 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: the father of all bombs in an obviously pentagon sexist comment. 65 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: And it is the very first time the weapon has 66 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: been used in combat. So there will be a lot 67 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: of people here who are going to be very very 68 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: much concerned about this. But I asked you to think 69 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: back to the campaign. What did Donald Trump say about Isis? 70 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: He said, We're gonna take him out. We've had a 71 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: bunch of pansies and whoosias that haven't had a serious 72 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: moment about it, and we're gonna get together with my 73 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: military people. We're gonna come up and the plan. We're 74 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 1: gonna wipe them out. It's only because I've got a 75 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,159 Speaker 1: bunch of stupid leaders that we haven't wiped them out yet. 76 00:05:36,279 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: So here comes the biggest bomb, non nuclear bomb dropped 77 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: in Afghanistan on an ISIS location. Yeah I misspoke. Three 78 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: is probably three football fields, three hundreds very close to 79 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: three hundred yards. They they primary blast range of this 80 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: powerful bomb. Anyway, Folks hanging to be tough, Sit tight, 81 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,280 Speaker 1: because we just got warmed up here. The media beside 82 00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: itself now over the drop. The news story I had 83 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,800 Speaker 1: on the bomb from the UK newspaper that quote the 84 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: Pentagon is calling it the father of all bombs see 85 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:18,839 Speaker 1: and ends calling it the mother of all bombs. But 86 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: the Pentagon referred to it at least in the story 87 00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: I have as the father of all bombs. Anyway, it 88 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: was dropped in a northeastern province of Afghanistan on a 89 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 1: bunch of ISIS tunnels. Ben in Gaithersburg, Maryland, you're next, welcome. 90 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Great to have you high. Thanks for us to answer 91 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: your questions from the top of the show. I can 92 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,479 Speaker 1: tell you with one accuracy, since I watched over a 93 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: hundred Trump rallies, that he never once promised that he 94 00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: would not use military force. All he said time and 95 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: time again was that our military has become run down 96 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: and very weak compared to the past, and he was 97 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:03,039 Speaker 1: going to build it back up exactly right. We would 98 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: never have to use it. Hopefully we would never have 99 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: to use it. He never promised not to use it. 100 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: Yes he did. He said we're gonna kick is as 101 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: his ass Oh absolutely, yeah. We did say he was 102 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: going to bomb the s out of ices is. Apparently 103 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: he did that today as well, but he never said 104 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: he wasn't going. In fact, showing peace through strength his point. 105 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: So tell me something here, dad, that why are all 106 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: these people out there saying Trump led? Trump misled these people, 107 00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 1: He bottomed serious people. He would never do that, and 108 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,240 Speaker 1: now that has become the dominant story in the news 109 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 1: the last two days was that he's changing all his 110 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: campaign positions because they desperately need to pivot from the 111 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: Trump collusion story that blew up in their face. Uh yeah, okay, 112 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: I see that, but they haven't given up on that. 113 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 1: I mean that goes dormant like the United Airline story 114 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 1: covered it a bit. Now dropping this bomb is covered, 115 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 1: but you ought to. I mean the conspiracy theories that 116 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: the left comes up with to explain what Trump's doing 117 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: to take the collusion story off the front page. These 118 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: people are funnel. I mean, they're hilariously insane and getting 119 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 1: better or worse.
