1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on 2 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: iHeartRadio and welcome back to Coast to Coast George Norri 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: back with Miss Shedlock and we're going to take calls 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 1: with miss next our miss. How do people get your blog? 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:17,960 Speaker 1: My friend mishtalk dot com, m I shta LK dot com. 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:20,840 Speaker 1: Simple as that. Cryptos took it on the chin today 7 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:26,400 Speaker 1: with a number of companies blocking users from withdrawing their funds. 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: That's unbelievable. We've seen this two or actually three times now. 9 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 1: We saw that with Luna to it crashed to zero. 10 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: The price of bitcoin plunge today. It was from an 11 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: all time high of sixty nine thousand, It was twenty 12 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: one thousand earlier. Today, Etherem was hit even harder. It's 13 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: around eleven hundred down from what four thousand, seven hundred 14 00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 1: or something. Really smashed dogecoin if you remember that, that's 15 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,039 Speaker 1: the one Elon Musk promoted on Saturday Night Live. I 16 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: think it topped at like sixty nine cents maybe something 17 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: like that. It's fell to under five cents today. You know, 18 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: it's it's it's really crazy. There's eighteen thousand thousand cryptos 19 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: out there. Claiming to do something better than the other ones. 20 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't like them, miss, I just feel so. 21 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 1: I don't like them either. Bitcoin, I believe, is going 22 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: to survive most of these other ones. The protocols are 23 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: literally suspect here based off of off of what we've 24 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: seen the ones on The true believers in bitcoin will 25 00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: tell you that all the ones that are based off 26 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: of the ether reum um um um style are of 27 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: mining are headed to zero. And they just put layers 28 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,919 Speaker 1: and layers and then derivers on them. And what really 29 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 1: got people is something called staking. They were promising people, 30 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: you know, as much as twenty percent interest. George, you 31 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: know that that is going to blow up if you 32 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: actually think you can get even six percent interest, you know, 33 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: guaranteed on these What happened is people pledge their coins 34 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:29,080 Speaker 1: for a period of time. They were promised six percent. 35 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: It's not even six percent interest paid in dollars, is 36 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: six percent interest paid in the token. So when the 37 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: token crashes, look out to zero, six percent of zero 38 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:45,400 Speaker 1: is zero. And that's literally what happened with Luna twenty 39 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: twenty four presidential election. We don't really talk a lot 40 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: of politics here, but we talk about issues that affect 41 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: Americans and everybody in general. But President Joe Biden, if 42 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: things are continuing the way they are in all areas, 43 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: he's going to have a difficult time. I don't care 44 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: who runs against him. No, And the thing is, and 45 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: we need to be honest about this, George. And you know, 46 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:12,040 Speaker 1: and Biden certainly deserves a lot of blame here. I 47 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: don't believe in sanctions. He's admitted no responsibility. Nothing's going 48 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 1: right for this guy. I mean, he keeps claiming, you 49 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: know that this build back better did not add you know, 50 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 1: to inflation. George, I'm sorry, that's nuts. But let's switch 51 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: places here. Let's assume for one second that that Trump 52 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: had won the election. I think it would be the 53 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: Republicans getting smashed in the midterms coming up. People would 54 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: be blaming Trump instead of blaming Biden. Trump would have 55 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: done a lot of things different. But one thing that 56 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: Trump and Biden have in common is sanctions. They both 57 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: like to sanction China, sanction Russia. That's that's a that's 58 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: a huge mistake. All Trump tariffs did was you know, 59 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: I'm a free marketer, George, was raised you know, prices 60 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: of uh, you know, on goods and services. You know, 61 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 1: it was Trump pushing more liquid natural gas going over 62 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: to Europe, and guess what, they're forced to do it 63 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: now because they don't want to buy energy from Russia. 64 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: We would have a lot of the same problems. But 65 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: one thing that Trump would have done is a lot better. 66 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 1: Is just not curtail supply. Biden has been openly hostile 67 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: to the oil and gas industry. I mean, you can 68 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 1: go back and you can just look at We're gonna 69 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: shut them down. We're gonna shut them down. Exact words, 70 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: We're gonna shut off fossil fuels. We're gonna do it. 71 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 1: How many times did they say that. Now they're complaining 72 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 1: the fossil fuel companies aren't pumping enough. Meanwhile, they're not 73 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 1: giving them enough new permits for them to do it. 74 00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: So we've had we had bad policy all around on 75 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,360 Speaker 1: top of COVID, and then when you combine that with 76 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: free money, you know, guess what, but Trump wanted more 77 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,520 Speaker 1: free money too. The Republicans actually didn't go along. He 78 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 1: wanted he wanted his second package of free money. He 79 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: wanted more. He was upset. This was when the election 80 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,719 Speaker 1: was still going on. Of course, he wanted more to 81 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 1: the credited the Republicans, they wouldn't do it. But you 82 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: know when Biden got in there, that that last big 83 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: COVID Simmis package was the killer. All right, return to rent. 84 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: I would like to return to rent because there's a 85 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: couple of I was going to ask you about housing. 86 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: They and this is really interesting. And you know, the 87 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: Fed cut interest rates and mortgage rates fell to record lows. 88 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: So what happened is corporations like Black Rock had extremely 89 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: cheap access to money. They would go out and they 90 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: would buy up a whole SUBDT visions. They were go 91 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:06,479 Speaker 1: out and buy buy mobile home parks and immediately, you know, 92 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 1: jack up the rent you know on everybody in that 93 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: mobile home park, whether they couldn't afford it or not. 94 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:18,359 Speaker 1: Right exactly Now, that's not exactly criminal, but it is 95 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: totally disgusting. And you know, this is what happened. And 96 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: this also explains the rise in crypto. You know, all 97 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,720 Speaker 1: the you know millennials and zoomers, you know, everyone who 98 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: was getting all this free money in you know, they 99 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: put it all in cryptos and and and it's vanished 100 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,039 Speaker 1: now into thin air. So uh, that was one of 101 00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: the driving sports. There's one more point about rent. I 102 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: was pretty positive that that last CPI report George was 103 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: going to be really hot, and the and the reason 104 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 1: why I know that, and then you've heard me say 105 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: that on several Wendays Wednesdays. I don't believe these these 106 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,560 Speaker 1: numbers from the BLS. Rent is up four point eight 107 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: percent a year, FOUI, I don't believe that. I don't 108 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: think you do. I'll bet I'll bet the listening audience 109 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,960 Speaker 1: doesn't believe that either. I got some numbers from National 110 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: Apartment List. They actually have and it's case Hiller type data, 111 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,679 Speaker 1: so it's the same apartment renting over and over again, 112 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:26,600 Speaker 1: you know, not just media apartment or something. And uh, 113 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: their year over year prices topped at seventeen percent. I 114 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: don't think we're going to see anything that high. But 115 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: the FED is lagging because rent is lagging. You know 116 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: the you know, rent stays flat for eleven months out 117 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,360 Speaker 1: of the year and then at the end of the year, 118 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 1: whatever the year that is, and it's a different month 119 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: for a lot of people. At the end of that year, 120 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: it jumps all in one big swoosh. The BLS is 121 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: way behind the curve on that. So, um, My theory 122 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: heading into that last CPI number was, you know, rent 123 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: is thirty one percent of the CPI, George, So if 124 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: rent is going up, it's going to have a really 125 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: hard time for that CPI to come down. We've still 126 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: got three or four more months of rising seat of 127 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: rising rent baked in the cake. It's going to be 128 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: hard for for for rent to come down. Thirty one 129 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: percent of the CPI, George. The two thousand and eight 130 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:35,080 Speaker 1: inflated mortgages YEP contributed to the collapse. Yes, a huge 131 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: bubble burst in housing. Is that going to happen again? 132 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: I don't think so. And um is we don't have 133 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 1: the same number of liar loans. Um. I don't think 134 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,120 Speaker 1: we're going to have people literally walking away from their 135 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: homes like they did there. But um, the the other 136 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 1: side is, you know one thing I'm worried about to 137 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: slow down in housing, George, is if we're going to 138 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 1: slow down across the board housing, no who, no one 139 00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: can afford to buy a home interest a Morga's rate 140 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 1: six point one eight percent today, that's where it got 141 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: and I think it's going to keep going up. You know, 142 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 1: maybe we see seven I don't know where it goes. 143 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: But that is absolutely going to kill homebuilding. But if 144 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: it kills home building, it's going to kill apartment building too. 145 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 1: So the commercials are already chopped up. The only saving 146 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 1: grace in this picture is because of you know, all 147 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,839 Speaker 1: the shortage of workers, all the shortage of supplies. There's 148 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:42,400 Speaker 1: a record number of homes right now that are still 149 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: under construction. Will it be enough? I don't know, George, 150 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. Are you scared? Not me personally? And 151 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 1: I'm angry though. I'm angry at the FED because I 152 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 1: called this, and you know these we have Treasury Secretary yelling, 153 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 1: and I saw a video the other day just you know, 154 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:11,719 Speaker 1: it's like month apart Biden making the same safe. You know, 155 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: all the economists say, you know, you know, we're not 156 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: a place is not going to go out. The economists say, 157 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 1: you know that build back better is not gonna add 158 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: to inflation. The economists say, and this one really kills 159 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: me because they're still pressing for um um student loan relief. 160 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: You know, okay, give a whole bunch of people ten 161 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 1: thousand dollars in free money. Meanwhile, the poor sapped that 162 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 1: paid off his mortgage. What is you know, it's paid 163 00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 1: off his student that you know, what is he? What 164 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: does he think? And then you know they want free childcare, 165 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:48,640 Speaker 1: you know, George, free money. I think we've proved this 166 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: contributes to inflation, and they have not admitted that that 167 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 1: is one of the problems. So I'm very personally, I'm 168 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: not worried. I don't have any debt and um the 169 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: but I'm worried about the people who do. I'm worried 170 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: about the people who bet at all on cryptos. I'm 171 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: you know, worried about what we're doing. And your guests, 172 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: right before I was on, you were talking about um 173 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: the big push for electric cars. He actually missed one 174 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: key point. Where are we going to get the lithium from. 175 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: We're gonna get the magnesium from, We're gonna get the 176 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: rare earth from. It's a good part. We didn't even 177 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 1: have enough chips for new cars these days. No, No, 178 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: we don't. They're using all that glass and stuff for 179 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: everything else, probably to make vials for vaccines. Yes, and 180 00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 1: that's another thing. We got to talk about COVID again. Yeah, 181 00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: and look at China, My god, they're locked. They're still 182 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 1: in this lockdown mode, and ships are piling up in 183 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 1: the in the Chinese ports, and guess what They're loaded 184 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: with merchandise that's going to be had to, you know, 185 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 1: unless people can cancel orders. I believe Target did cancel orders. 186 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 1: I had to pay a penalty to cancel Target stock plumb. Yeah, 187 00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 1: but they're loaded with merchandise it's going to be heading 188 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: to the United States that no one wants anymore. We've 189 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: over ordered the wrong stuff. Now we're taking calls next 190 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,199 Speaker 1: hour with Michael Shedlock. We call him Miss How did 191 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 1: you get miss? By the way, first two characters of 192 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: my first and last name all goes Mike Shedlock, so 193 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: m I and sh it goes back to UM. I 194 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:39,679 Speaker 1: was hanging around and I used to work for banks. 195 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: I've worked in the banking industry for for twenty years. 196 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 1: Every bank I worked at formulated user IDs out of 197 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 1: your first and the characters of your first name and 198 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 1: last name. So I was Miss Shedlow at like four 199 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: different banks. It's not very secure, George, if you can 200 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: guess someone's user ID just because they worked for a bank. 201 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 1: But I used the same user ID online miched Low 202 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,480 Speaker 1: and people truncated to mish so they started calling me miss, 203 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: and I said, that's catchy enough. I'm just gonna use mish. 204 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: Did your parents ever call you mish? Oh? No, this 205 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:17,200 Speaker 1: came about from the user IDs. Ooh no, this was 206 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:22,319 Speaker 1: this was just a random thing from from user IDs 207 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: working for banks. What miracle is going to happen to 208 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 1: get us out of this financial mess? Um? There always 209 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: is one and um And I'm not riddling that out either. Um, 210 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't either, and you know so I 211 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: think people think this is going to be a replay 212 00:13:43,120 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: of two thousand and eight. I gave you my opinion why. 213 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: I don't think it will be um for housing and 214 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it will be um in terms of 215 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: job losses. But it's going to be nasty and uh. 216 00:13:56,880 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: The the problem is for the FED is that hiking 217 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 1: rates is a blunt instrument. It can't it's not going 218 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: to help food production, It's not it's going to stimy 219 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: housing production. We're now facing the back end of bad policies. 220 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:22,320 Speaker 1: But one thing would help, for sure is if the 221 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: Ukrainian war ends. Right now, Zelenski says he doesn't you know, 222 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: he wants all of his territory back. Guess what he's 223 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 1: I'm sorry people are gonna be mad at me, but 224 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: he's not going to get Crimea back, and he's probably 225 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 1: going to lose the don Bass region in eastern Ukraine. 226 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: The if that takes the war to end and putting 227 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,800 Speaker 1: backs out and he's happy with that region, I'd say 228 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: let him have it and let's move on.
