1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,400
because we're not getting out of this.

2
00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:07,359
This thing's not going to go this

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:10,240
thing's not going our way. And you know

4
00:00:07,359 --> 00:00:12,320
that you can feel it. It's it's a you

5
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,480
can feel that it's not going our way.

6
00:00:12,320 --> 00:00:18,560
You can feel that it's not working. You

7
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:22,000
can feel that Trump wants out of it.

8
00:00:18,559 --> 00:00:25,198
You can feel it. This is not This is not

9
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:28,640
what he does. He's not a real fighter.

10
00:00:25,199 --> 00:00:32,480
He's like a talker. He's a casino

11
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:34,960
kingpin. He's a reality star and if you

12
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:36,159
like reality stars I'm selling actually

13
00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:40,160
pretty well there at the Wilturn

14
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:42,398
Theater. But that's what he does. This

15
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:45,759
is not Patton.

16
00:00:42,399 --> 00:00:48,000
He's not a general. He's a reality star.

17
00:00:45,759 --> 00:00:51,119
He's a talker. He's very

18
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:53,359
comfortable in that game. Late night

19
00:00:51,119 --> 00:00:55,839
firing off tweets at Elizabeth Warren.

20
00:00:53,359 --> 00:00:59,039
That's his game.

21
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:02,239
Talking with Ma and Joe. Morning

22
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:06,719
Joe. He's comfortable doing that all day

23
00:01:02,238 --> 00:01:08,239
long. No, a rally. Forget it. Standing

24
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:11,599
there for three hours talking

25
00:01:08,239 --> 00:01:15,118
extemporaneously off the cuff. He's all

26
00:01:11,599 --> 00:01:18,000
in and that's what he does.

27
00:01:15,118 --> 00:01:20,478
This is not where he shines and he feels

28
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:22,000
uncomfortable. You can tell he's not

29
00:01:20,478 --> 00:01:24,959
happy about this because this is not

30
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,478
what he does. This is also further

31
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,199
reason you can feel that he was really

32
00:01:26,478 --> 00:01:32,879
pushed into this. he felt like he he had

33
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:35,600
to do it for whatever reason. Um but

34
00:01:32,879 --> 00:01:38,319
there's no way that he wanted to do this

35
00:01:35,599 --> 00:01:41,118
because this is not where he lives. This

36
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:42,879
is not what he's good at. It's not what

37
00:01:41,118 --> 00:01:44,478
he's good at. Trump's the guy who was

38
00:01:42,879 --> 00:01:46,239
like walked around a military base was

39
00:01:44,478 --> 00:01:47,679
like or I I believe Walter Reed or was

40
00:01:46,239 --> 00:01:49,438
an army hospital and he was basically

41
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:51,520
like, "Yeah, why do they do this?" Like

42
00:01:49,438 --> 00:01:53,199
because he doesn't get it. He's like,

43
00:01:51,519 --> 00:01:54,239
"Why would you go sacrifice for the

44
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,320
country?" He's like, "Don't you want to

45
00:01:54,239 --> 00:01:57,599
be rich and get pussy?" Like he didn't

46
00:01:56,319 --> 00:02:00,718
get it.

47
00:01:57,599 --> 00:02:05,679
He doesn't get it. Like that's who he

48
00:02:00,718 --> 00:02:07,599
is. So he's this is not a place where he

49
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,439
feels comfortable. This is not what he

50
00:02:07,599 --> 00:02:13,919
does. So the idea that he wanted to do

51
00:02:09,439 --> 00:02:15,680
this, I think he was sold on it.

52
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:18,559
He was sold on it, but he didn't know

53
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:21,040
what it was cuz he'd never done it.

54
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,479
Everything was like kidnapping Maduro or

55
00:02:21,039 --> 00:02:24,400
uh you know, we're going to kill

56
00:02:22,479 --> 00:02:26,878
Solommani, this Iranian general. We're

57
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:28,959
in light touch. Boom. I I destroyed

58
00:02:26,878 --> 00:02:30,878
ISIS. Whatever. Did he? The one of them

59
00:02:28,959 --> 00:02:33,519
is running Syria. It doesn't matter.

60
00:02:30,878 --> 00:02:36,959
It's a light touch. No one cares. It's

61
00:02:33,519 --> 00:02:38,959
akin to reality TV

62
00:02:36,959 --> 00:02:42,560
because that's what he's the master of.

63
00:02:38,959 --> 00:02:46,560
He's the master of creating

64
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:49,680
um a reality that's true enough. That's

65
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:53,199
what reality TV does. If you watch it,

66
00:02:49,680 --> 00:02:55,920
you know it's not real, but it's real

67
00:02:53,199 --> 00:02:59,199
enough. Yes, they're actually on

68
00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:01,439
the Real Housewife show. Are they put in

69
00:02:59,199 --> 00:03:04,399
these situations and plied with alcohol?

70
00:03:01,439 --> 00:03:06,479
That is also true. Are these things

71
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:09,920
arranged to make them more entertaining?

72
00:03:06,479 --> 00:03:13,119
Of course, you suspend disbelief. But

73
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:16,799
it's true enough.

74
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:20,000
The divorces are real. People don't like

75
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:21,840
each other. You know, these things are

76
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,199
true enough. And Trump lived in that

77
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,920
world for a very long time. So

78
00:03:23,199 --> 00:03:29,518
basically, he's a master at creating a

79
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:31,839
reality that has elements of truth.

80
00:03:29,519 --> 00:03:34,000
But the things that are glaringly

81
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,840
untrue, you don't care because it's

82
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,400
entertaining.

83
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,759
Because it's entertaining. So it doesn't

84
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:45,760
matter the components of the things that

85
00:03:41,759 --> 00:03:48,318
are provably untrue, like indisputably

86
00:03:45,759 --> 00:03:51,439
lies. He doesn't care. And neither do

87
00:03:48,318 --> 00:03:53,518
you cuz you're laughing. You're smiling.

88
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:58,959
I can't believe he said that. It's

89
00:03:53,519 --> 00:04:02,799
entertaining. This is not a good show.

90
00:03:58,959 --> 00:04:04,719
That's the biggest problem here for DT.

91
00:04:02,799 --> 00:04:07,760
This is not a good show. And he knows

92
00:04:04,719 --> 00:04:12,000
it. He knows this is not a good show.

93
00:04:07,759 --> 00:04:14,399
Trump is well aware of why he is the

94
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:18,238
president. He knows this country better

95
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:20,720
than most people, maybe anyone.

96
00:04:18,238 --> 00:04:22,478
And it's not a nice thing. It's the line

97
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:24,400
from the end of Succession when Brian

98
00:04:22,478 --> 00:04:26,319
Cox looks at Jeremy Strong and goes,

99
00:04:24,399 --> 00:04:28,879
"They're having dinner and he goes, "I

100
00:04:26,319 --> 00:04:32,639
know things, not nice things, and that's

101
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:35,120
why I turn a buck." I know things, not

102
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:38,800
nice things, and that's why I turn a

103
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:40,560
buck. Trump knows

104
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,520
that when Zalinsky was in the Oval

105
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:46,800
Office and Vance and Trump were berating

106
00:04:43,519 --> 00:04:48,560
him, that was great TV.

107
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,600
Trump knows when he said to Hillary,

108
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:53,360
"Because you'd be in jail." That's great

109
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:58,479
TV.

110
00:04:53,360 --> 00:05:01,919
This is the opposite of great TV.

111
00:04:58,478 --> 00:05:04,800
It isn't exciting.

112
00:05:01,918 --> 00:05:06,639
It's not nearly

113
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:11,120
as engaging

114
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:14,160
as it needs to be. So, what you have is

115
00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:16,079
a bunch of people that are checking out,

116
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,320
which he doesn't like.

117
00:05:16,079 --> 00:05:22,319
They're tuning out. They're turning it

118
00:05:18,319 --> 00:05:24,959
off. And so when they turn it off, you

119
00:05:22,319 --> 00:05:28,000
got to remember they go out into the

120
00:05:24,959 --> 00:05:30,478
world, the gas prices are high, the food

121
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:32,079
prices are high. Why is this

122
00:05:30,478 --> 00:05:33,918
war,

123
00:05:32,079 --> 00:05:36,879
but they're not watching his show

124
00:05:33,918 --> 00:05:40,319
anymore. So he cannot tell them exactly

125
00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:43,120
why things are the way they are because

126
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:45,360
people are turning this off. They

127
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:48,160
don't understand why it happened. It's

128
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:49,919
embarrassing. Our military bases have

129
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,560
been blown to smitherines. It's

130
00:05:49,918 --> 00:05:54,799
embarrassing. The limits of our military

131
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,240
power have been exposed. It's embarrass

132
00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:59,038
People don't want to watch that show.

133
00:05:56,240 --> 00:06:01,120
That's not a feel-good show.

134
00:05:59,038 --> 00:06:05,360
That's a terribly

135
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:08,478
embarrassing and depressing show. So,

136
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:11,120
people go, "I'm out." And and Trump

137
00:06:08,478 --> 00:06:12,560
knows that. So, so he's doing these

138
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:14,959
little things to try to get them back

139
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,918
in. There's aliens now.

140
00:06:14,959 --> 00:06:20,000
Are you are you back watching? Can you

141
00:06:17,918 --> 00:06:22,959
come and watch again? There's aliens and

142
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:26,000
they're under the water. Or even this,

143
00:06:22,959 --> 00:06:28,719
we're moving dark eagle hypersonic

144
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,639
missiles towards our It's the final

145
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:33,360
blow. He keeps using words like that,

146
00:06:30,639 --> 00:06:36,079
the final blow. But there is no final

147
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:39,280
blow.

148
00:06:36,079 --> 00:06:42,159
So eventually people just turn it off.

149
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:44,959
It's like a soap opera. You never see

150
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:47,199
the last episode of a soap opera. You

151
00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:49,680
turn it off. You get sick of it. You

152
00:06:47,199 --> 00:06:52,478
grow up. You get a job. You get a

153
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,600
boyfriend. Whatever.

154
00:06:52,478 --> 00:06:59,839
What this has become for Trump

155
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:02,319
is is a a a total unending

156
00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:04,399
nightmare. And he's in this weird

157
00:07:02,319 --> 00:07:06,479
stalemate where no one's really doing

158
00:07:04,399 --> 00:07:08,239
anything. And he keeps like threatening.

159
00:07:06,478 --> 00:07:10,560
Now hopefully he just keeps threatening

160
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,960
and we never go back in there. Hopefully

161
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,439
nothing even happens. Hopefully the

162
00:07:12,959 --> 00:07:18,638
trade opens up, things normalize,

163
00:07:15,439 --> 00:07:21,038
everybody apologizes, whatever. Seems

164
00:07:18,639 --> 00:07:22,720
unlikely, but that's kind of what needs

165
00:07:21,038 --> 00:07:24,719
to happen. And he just keeps tweeting

166
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:26,800
final blow. You know, TRUTH SOCIAL LIKE

167
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:31,280
FINAL BLOW. IT'S THE FINAL BLOW is

168
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:35,120
coming. This is the first time that I

169
00:07:31,279 --> 00:07:37,119
have watched Trump where it feels

170
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,199
boring.

171
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:41,918
And when I say that, I don't mean to

172
00:07:39,199 --> 00:07:44,319
take away from the horrific loss of

173
00:07:41,918 --> 00:07:46,478
life. By the way, I'm not taking away

174
00:07:44,319 --> 00:07:49,360
from that. None of that's boring.

175
00:07:46,478 --> 00:07:52,399
Obviously, it's a terrible tragedy.

176
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:54,879
Trump himself seems

177
00:07:52,399 --> 00:07:57,679
to be

178
00:07:54,879 --> 00:08:00,879
over it. He doesn't want to do this

179
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:03,840
anymore. He's he's he's

180
00:08:00,879 --> 00:08:06,560
stuck in a web.

181
00:08:03,839 --> 00:08:09,279
If we pull out now,

182
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:11,918
it's a an admission to the world that

183
00:08:09,279 --> 00:08:13,279
America's military might has, I believe,

184
00:08:11,918 --> 00:08:14,318
is, you know, a lot of people look at

185
00:08:13,279 --> 00:08:16,079
that and say it's been greatly

186
00:08:14,319 --> 00:08:18,160
overstated

187
00:08:16,079 --> 00:08:20,399
and that we're we're not going to make

188
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,080
commitments to our allies. We're not

189
00:08:20,399 --> 00:08:24,719
going to make commitments to the the

190
00:08:22,079 --> 00:08:28,478
things we say are important, right? So,

191
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:33,440
he doesn't feel like he can do that.

192
00:08:28,478 --> 00:08:35,598
But also, this final blow, a world war,

193
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,519
dropping a nuke,

194
00:08:35,599 --> 00:08:41,278
all of this

195
00:08:37,519 --> 00:08:43,918
isn't possible. The generals have told

196
00:08:41,278 --> 00:08:46,559
him, "We can't do the things you want to

197
00:08:43,918 --> 00:08:49,039
do." Now, Trump, no one told him this at

198
00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:50,399
the Apprentice.

199
00:08:49,039 --> 00:08:52,079
Everyone was pretty much like, "Yeah,

200
00:08:50,399 --> 00:08:53,839
what do you want to do?" Yeah, we can do

201
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:56,560
that. We'll find a way to do that. We'll

202
00:08:53,839 --> 00:08:59,279
find a version of that that will be

203
00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:04,799
okay. It'll be true enough. It'll be

204
00:08:59,278 --> 00:09:07,360
true enough. And that can't happen here.

205
00:09:04,799 --> 00:09:10,719
So, they have to start with the aliens.

206
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:13,039
They have to start with the aliens.

207
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:16,639
There's nothing they can really do now.

208
00:09:13,039 --> 00:09:19,519
He's stuck. And it sucks.

209
00:09:16,639 --> 00:09:22,399
And And more than that,

210
00:09:19,519 --> 00:09:26,080
he knows he's losing eyeballs. They're

211
00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:28,240
leaving him. They're going elsewhere.

212
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:31,120
They don't care.

213
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:31,120
They've given up.
