Charlie Kirk Today | Rich Baris: June 23, 2026 | Charlie Kirk Today | June 23, 2026
- We've got the tyler robinson
- 00:00:09.699 --> 00:00:11.701
- Hearing that i'm getting updates on there
- 00:00:11.701 --> 00:00:14.170
- Now, deciding whether the defense can force
- 00:00:14.170 --> 00:00:17.574
- Luna lance twiggs, the boyfriend,
- 00:00:17.574 --> 00:00:19.876
- To appear in person during the preliminary trial.
- 00:00:19.876 --> 00:00:22.412
- Just to update the audience again, remind you
- 00:00:22.412 --> 00:00:24.681
- July 6th through the 10th is supposed to be
- 00:00:24.681 --> 00:00:26.449
- The prelim mini trial there.
- 00:00:26.449 --> 00:00:27.884
- Also, apparently they were supposed to rule on a contempt,
- 00:00:27.884 --> 00:00:32.989
- Sanction, potentially on one of the prosecutors.
- 00:00:32.989 --> 00:00:36.693
- Remember,
- 00:00:36.693 --> 00:00:37.627
- That goes back to the daily mail article
- 00:00:37.627 --> 00:00:39.796
- That said the bullet didn't match,
- 00:00:39.796 --> 00:00:40.997
- But it was a complete terrible bastardization of a headline.
- 00:00:40.997 --> 00:00:44.434
- One of the prosecutors
- 00:00:44.434 --> 00:00:45.401
- Apparently said something to the press,
- 00:00:45.401 --> 00:00:47.437
- Clarifying what that actually meant.
- 00:00:47.437 --> 00:00:49.439
- Which what what does it actually mean? blake?
- 00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.474
- Yeah, literally just means all it
- 00:00:51.474 --> 00:00:52.942
- All they can say is
- 00:00:52.942 --> 00:00:54.344
- The evidence does
- 00:00:54.344 --> 00:00:55.378
- Not conclusively demonstrate that it is a match
- 00:00:55.378 --> 00:00:58.681
- Because it
- 00:00:58.681 --> 00:00:59.816
- Supposedly was destroyed because the ball was heavily
- 00:00:59.816 --> 00:01:01.117
- Damaged as opposed to the way they.
- 00:01:01.117 --> 00:01:02.886
- But it could be.
- 00:01:02.886 --> 00:01:03.753
- It could be, but it's not proven to be.
- 00:01:03.753 --> 00:01:06.189
- And they're interpreting that as it is
- 00:01:06.189 --> 00:01:08.024
- Conclusively shown to not be from that.
- 00:01:08.024 --> 00:01:10.860
- So that headline went viral from the daily mail.
- 00:01:10.860 --> 00:01:14.564
- And they have a thousand other ways
- 00:01:14.564 --> 00:01:16.332
- To link the suspect to the gun into the bullet.
- 00:01:16.332 --> 00:01:20.003
- By the way, for the contempt, you know, the,
- 00:01:20.003 --> 00:01:21.971
- The the contempt, against the prosecution.
- 00:01:21.971 --> 00:01:25.074
- The defense is asking
- 00:01:25.575 --> 00:01:27.577
- That they remove the death penalty
- 00:01:27.577 --> 00:01:29.045
- As one of as other saying
- 00:01:29.045 --> 00:01:30.446
- That's one of the it's not going to happen.
- 00:01:30.446 --> 00:01:31.681
- That's what we're not going to have. i mean, who knows.
- 00:01:31.681 --> 00:01:33.249
- Crazy that they're, they're, they're even asking for that.
- 00:01:33.249 --> 00:01:35.218
- It is.
- 00:01:35.218 --> 00:01:36.085
- But it's just everything about this.
- 00:01:36.085 --> 00:01:37.620
- We've mentioned this before that a big thing that's driving
- 00:01:37.620 --> 00:01:41.257
- All of the weird psychosis
- 00:01:41.257 --> 00:01:43.426
- Around this case that you and i know exist is
- 00:01:43.426 --> 00:01:46.296
- How incredibly long it's taking to do everything.
- 00:01:46.296 --> 00:01:49.799
- And i'll be frank, i don't think this case
- 00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:54.070
- I don't think the details of this case require
- 00:01:54.070 --> 00:01:56.806
- That it need a 2 or 3 year criminal justice process.
- 00:01:56.806 --> 00:02:01.110
- I think the evidence is fairly straightforward, and i think
- 00:02:01.110 --> 00:02:06.115
- The public's, the
- 00:02:06.549 --> 00:02:07.917
- Public needs to see justice done in a timely manner.
- 00:02:07.917 --> 00:02:10.720
- And this is worth thinking about that we should consider.
- 00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:13.289
- Do we need to change our laws?
- 00:02:13.289 --> 00:02:14.424
- Do we need to change our approach
- 00:02:14.424 --> 00:02:15.692
- To prosecutions, criminal justice,
- 00:02:15.692 --> 00:02:17.460
- Maybe expand the budget for them
- 00:02:17.460 --> 00:02:19.362
- To make sure that trials can happen in a timely manner
- 00:02:19.362 --> 00:02:22.799
- For infamous crimes?
- 00:02:22.799 --> 00:02:24.968
- Because otherwise you just have these people
- 00:02:24.968 --> 00:02:27.737
- Endlessly agitating.
- 00:02:27.737 --> 00:02:28.638
- They want updates, they want developments.
- 00:02:28.638 --> 00:02:30.673
- And it it's taking a year to get anything done.
- 00:02:30.673 --> 00:02:33.977
- Yeah.
- 00:02:34.210 --> 00:02:35.311
- So the so just as we continue updating from this,
- 00:02:35.311 --> 00:02:38.281
- The court is prioritizing matters
- 00:02:38.281 --> 00:02:40.416
- That would impact preliminary hearing.
- 00:02:40.416 --> 00:02:41.884
- So therefore he punted on the contempt.
- 00:02:41.884 --> 00:02:43.753
- He is announcing the contempt on friday.
- 00:02:43.753 --> 00:02:46.055
- So his decision on the contempt will happen on friday.
- 00:02:46.055 --> 00:02:49.192
- But the big i think the big news right now
- 00:02:49.192 --> 00:02:51.494
- Is that lance twiggs will not be, showing up in person.
- 00:02:51.494 --> 00:02:55.331
- The video will suffice for the preliminary hearing.
- 00:02:55.331 --> 00:02:57.100
- That's what you need to know.
- 00:02:57.100 --> 00:02:58.334
- Again, all happening in real time.
- 00:02:58.334 --> 00:03:01.304
- Want to talk about iran.
- 00:03:01.304 --> 00:03:02.372
- So there was this huge dust up over the weekend.
- 00:03:02.372 --> 00:03:05.842
- But the big news is that j.d.
- 00:03:05.842 --> 00:03:07.377
- Vance is out front, and he is basically saying
- 00:03:07.377 --> 00:03:11.714
- Huge progress is being made, and i just can't help
- 00:03:11.714 --> 00:03:14.617
- But notice, like you and i quietly behind the scenes,
- 00:03:14.617 --> 00:03:18.721
- That much like charlie, we're kind of very skeptical
- 00:03:18.721 --> 00:03:21.024
- About going in.
- 00:03:21.024 --> 00:03:22.225
- You can always choose when to
- 00:03:22.859 --> 00:03:23.860
- Start, can't choose when to end a war, right?
- 00:03:23.860 --> 00:03:25.662
- We've said that again and again.
- 00:03:25.662 --> 00:03:27.196
- Now iran is willing to concede on the nuclear
- 00:03:27.196 --> 00:03:30.366
- And they're going to be.
- 00:03:30.366 --> 00:03:31.467
- That's the big headline that you see on your screen.
- 00:03:31.467 --> 00:03:33.036
- Iran will let u.n.
- 00:03:33.036 --> 00:03:33.970
- Nuke inspectors back in, could buy u.s.
- 00:03:33.970 --> 00:03:36.606
- Crops with billions in unfrozen assets, according to j.d.
- 00:03:36.606 --> 00:03:39.742
- Vance.
- 00:03:39.742 --> 00:03:40.576
- So let's go through these details.
- 00:03:40.576 --> 00:03:42.178
- So apparently, j.d.
- 00:03:42.178 --> 00:03:43.279
- Vance, he gave a press conference earlier this morning
- 00:03:43.279 --> 00:03:45.448
- Kind of addressing some of the updates.
- 00:03:45.448 --> 00:03:47.050
- Did you know where the iranian iranians
- 00:03:47.050 --> 00:03:49.118
- Trying to walk out of the meeting?
- 00:03:49.118 --> 00:03:50.353
- He said they threatened to, but they didn't.
- 00:03:50.353 --> 00:03:52.922
- So they're still here.
- 00:03:52.922 --> 00:03:54.290
- He called it talking trash,
- 00:03:54.290 --> 00:03:56.426
- Talking about if, if if we unfreeze these assets,
- 00:03:56.426 --> 00:03:59.929
- Then what would happen with that money?
- 00:03:59.929 --> 00:04:01.264
- There needs to be an inspection regime so they can't use them
- 00:04:01.264 --> 00:04:04.600
- To fund terrorism.
- 00:04:04.600 --> 00:04:05.668
- So what is the suggestion that they use
- 00:04:05.668 --> 00:04:08.438
- Those billions of dollars of unfrozen assets
- 00:04:08.438 --> 00:04:11.407
- To buy american produce, to feed their people?
- 00:04:11.407 --> 00:04:15.111
- So these are really interesting creative mechanisms.
- 00:04:15.111 --> 00:04:17.880
- Now, none of this has been signed on the dotted line.
- 00:04:17.880 --> 00:04:20.216
- There's still conflict going on in lebanon, back
- 00:04:20.216 --> 00:04:22.785
- And forth with israel.
- 00:04:22.785 --> 00:04:24.454
- I'm telling you,
- 00:04:24.854 --> 00:04:25.922
- The same people that are opposing
- 00:04:25.922 --> 00:04:28.424
- This peace deal were the same people
- 00:04:28.424 --> 00:04:30.626
- That were a really pushing for an escalation
- 00:04:30.626 --> 00:04:33.329
- Of this conflict,
- 00:04:33.329 --> 00:04:34.230
- And the same people
- 00:04:34.230 --> 00:04:35.298
- That did not want president trump to run again,
- 00:04:35.298 --> 00:04:37.266
- It's almost like you've seen the roles reversed.
- 00:04:37.266 --> 00:04:39.302
- And that is a very telltale sign
- 00:04:39.302 --> 00:04:41.604
- That this is probably a really good deal
- 00:04:41.604 --> 00:04:43.339
- For the american people.
- 00:04:43.339 --> 00:04:44.540
- Okay, new polling has come out.
- 00:04:44.540 --> 00:04:46.309
- We're going to talk with rich barris in the next segment
- 00:04:46.309 --> 00:04:48.678
- That 70% of americans want to see peace.
- 00:04:48.678 --> 00:04:51.114
- They think now is the right time to get to peace.
- 00:04:51.114 --> 00:04:53.516
- And there's a lot of people really upset about that.
- 00:04:53.516 --> 00:04:55.651
- A lot of people are.
- 00:04:55.651 --> 00:04:56.319
- And i think that
- 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:57.186
- I think
- 00:04:57.186 --> 00:04:57.887
- You're seeing a big split here,
- 00:04:57.887 --> 00:04:59.122
- And we'll talk
- 00:04:59.122 --> 00:05:00.390
- About that for sure, which is i think there's a lot of people
- 00:05:00.390 --> 00:05:02.492
- Who are we'll be frank, they're big warhawks in dc.
- 00:05:02.492 --> 00:05:05.595
- They really want to take out the iran regime
- 00:05:05.595 --> 00:05:08.030
- And any peace deal short of that will upset them.
- 00:05:08.030 --> 00:05:10.400
- You have others who i think
- 00:05:10.400 --> 00:05:11.868
- Are very sensitive to just, oh, it's less than we could get.
- 00:05:11.868 --> 00:05:15.671
- Like, once we're in war, we shouldn't settle for less
- 00:05:15.671 --> 00:05:17.840
- Than a very clear cut, big victory.
- 00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:19.909
- But i think the american people just
- 00:05:19.909 --> 00:05:22.078
- They want to be focused on at home 100%, and they'll
- 00:05:22.078 --> 00:05:26.149
- Willingly take a deal that makes some concessions
- 00:05:26.149 --> 00:05:28.651
- To the iranians.
- 00:05:28.651 --> 00:05:29.185
- That is much more of
- 00:05:29.185 --> 00:05:30.319
- A compromise look than a total unconditional surrender.
- 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.890
- Look to it,
- 00:05:33.890 --> 00:05:34.757
- And i think
- 00:05:34.757 --> 00:05:36.225
- They'll be grateful for that,
- 00:05:36.225 --> 00:05:37.260
- Even if
- 00:05:37.260 --> 00:05:38.461
- It's not what the dc people who are invested in northrop
- 00:05:38.461 --> 00:05:41.197
- Grumman want.
- 00:05:41.197 --> 00:05:41.831
- Yeah, and i want to get to
- 00:05:41.831 --> 00:05:42.698
- This trash talk thing and this well said.
- 00:05:42.698 --> 00:05:44.400
- Like, sat 26.
- 00:05:44.400 --> 00:05:46.169
- But what we told the iranians yesterday is
- 00:05:46.169 --> 00:05:48.805
- When you guys engage in
- 00:05:48.805 --> 00:05:50.139
- What us millennials might call trash talk,
- 00:05:50.139 --> 00:05:52.842
- You can't expect the president of the united states
- 00:05:52.842 --> 00:05:54.877
- Not to respond and not to correct the record.
- 00:05:54.877 --> 00:05:57.280
- So when they say things that aren't true,
- 00:05:57.280 --> 00:05:59.649
- The president is going to respond to it.
- 00:05:59.649 --> 00:06:01.451
- I'm going to respond to it.
- 00:06:01.451 --> 00:06:02.685
- Americans are going to respond to it
- 00:06:02.685 --> 00:06:04.687
- When they make threats that aren't rooted in reality.
- 00:06:04.687 --> 00:06:07.323
- They have to accept that the president of the
- 00:06:07.323 --> 00:06:09.158
- United states is actually going to set the record straight.
- 00:06:09.158 --> 00:06:11.928
- That's all that happened.
- 00:06:11.928 --> 00:06:13.029
- So, yes,
- 00:06:13.029 --> 00:06:13.863
- There was a little bit of threatening,
- 00:06:13.863 --> 00:06:15.097
- There was a little bit of whining.
- 00:06:15.097 --> 00:06:16.232
- But at the end of the day, the talks continued
- 00:06:16.232 --> 00:06:18.134
- And we made great progress.
- 00:06:18.134 --> 00:06:19.502
- So this is what iran does, right.
- 00:06:19.502 --> 00:06:21.571
- And the question is,
- 00:06:21.571 --> 00:06:22.538
- Does this mean they're ever going
- 00:06:22.538 --> 00:06:23.639
- To be capable of behaving in good faith?
- 00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.542
- They trash talk.
- 00:06:26.542 --> 00:06:27.543
- I mean, during they were literally getting
- 00:06:27.543 --> 00:06:30.313
- The absolute crap blown out of them by the us military.
- 00:06:30.313 --> 00:06:34.050
- And they were still on social media,
- 00:06:34.050 --> 00:06:35.685
- You know, threatening the day of reckoning is coming.
- 00:06:35.685 --> 00:06:37.954
- And all of this stuff they were going to defeat.
- 00:06:37.954 --> 00:06:39.689
- No, listen, this is what they do to save face.
- 00:06:39.689 --> 00:06:42.725
- So if you're really interested in peace,
- 00:06:42.725 --> 00:06:45.127
- You understand that you have to let them save face.
- 00:06:45.127 --> 00:06:47.763
- President trump is going to he's also going to trash talk.
- 00:06:47.763 --> 00:06:50.700
- Let's be honest.
- 00:06:50.700 --> 00:06:51.834
- And you got to remember, we have not unfrozen anything.
- 00:06:51.834 --> 00:06:54.170
- There is now oil. yes. moving through the straits.
- 00:06:54.170 --> 00:06:56.506
- That's a good thing for energy prices throughout the world.
- 00:06:56.506 --> 00:06:59.408
- But you have to concede some things.
- 00:06:59.408 --> 00:07:01.410
- You've got to actually kind of say, hey,
- 00:07:01.410 --> 00:07:03.412
- You can do x, but we get y, right?
- 00:07:03.412 --> 00:07:05.548
- That's a way, that's the way a negotiation works.
- 00:07:05.548 --> 00:07:07.783
- Okay.
- 00:07:07.783 --> 00:07:08.885
- And we're going to have steve day on an hour or two.
- 00:07:08.885 --> 00:07:11.487
- And we're going to talk about what do these detractors
- 00:07:11.487 --> 00:07:14.323
- That don't want peace, what do they want.
- 00:07:14.323 --> 00:07:15.858
- What is the alternative that they could possibly be seeking?
- 00:07:15.858 --> 00:07:19.195
- I haven't heard a good explanation yet.
- 00:07:19.195 --> 00:07:22.031
- I think the american people
- 00:07:22.031 --> 00:07:23.032
- Have spoken, though, and the polling shows
- 00:07:23.032 --> 00:07:24.800
- We want peace and we want it now.
- 00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:26.068
- We'll talk with rich barris about that next.
- 00:07:26.068 --> 00:07:31.004
- We'll talk with rich barris about that next.
- 00:07:31.004 --> 00:07:37.013
- All right.
- 00:07:37.313 --> 00:07:38.381
- Rich barris, big data pull the people's pundit.
- 00:07:38.381 --> 00:07:40.750
- Rich, we got to talk about peace.
- 00:07:40.750 --> 00:07:43.085
- How popular is peace?
- 00:07:43.085 --> 00:07:45.288
- And i'm going to play this clip
- 00:07:45.288 --> 00:07:46.389
- To set up this segment for us. okay.
- 00:07:46.389 --> 00:07:48.357
- Now i want to say i spoke with bashir this morning.
- 00:07:48.357 --> 00:07:51.661
- She's very against it. bashir.
- 00:07:51.661 --> 00:07:53.462
- Sargon.
- 00:07:53.462 --> 00:07:54.297
- She's disappointed in this.
- 00:07:54.297 --> 00:07:55.998
- I probably have her on the show, actually,
- 00:07:55.998 --> 00:07:57.900
- Probably tomorrow
- 00:07:57.900 --> 00:07:58.935
- To talk with her about it because, i mean, i,
- 00:07:58.935 --> 00:08:00.236
- I think she's
- 00:08:00.236 --> 00:08:01.337
- Sincere in her beliefs, but i'm going to play the clip
- 00:08:01.337 --> 00:08:03.773
- And then we'll talk about what the polling shows.
- 00:08:03.773 --> 00:08:07.310
- Sot 27 vice president jd vance has had a terrible, horrible,
- 00:08:07.310 --> 00:08:10.680
- No good, very bad week on a media
- 00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:13.049
- Tour for his new book about his catholic conversion.
- 00:08:13.049 --> 00:08:15.585
- Vance was the only administration
- 00:08:15.585 --> 00:08:17.019
- Official defending the president's
- 00:08:17.019 --> 00:08:18.588
- Memorandum of understanding with iran.
- 00:08:18.588 --> 00:08:21.157
- And for five days straight, the vice president gaslit smear
- 00:08:21.157 --> 00:08:24.293
- Prevaricated and straight up
- 00:08:24.293 --> 00:08:25.895
- Lied to our faces about what was in the mou,
- 00:08:25.895 --> 00:08:29.565
- Why it wasn't being released, and a host of other things.
- 00:08:29.565 --> 00:08:32.268
- Here's the truth vice president j.d.
- 00:08:32.268 --> 00:08:34.704
- Vance just brought the united states to its knees
- 00:08:34.704 --> 00:08:38.541
- With a humiliating deal weeks before our 250th birthday.
- 00:08:38.541 --> 00:08:43.279
- And he's decided, like many before him, to blame israel
- 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:47.850
- For the mess his administration created.
- 00:08:47.850 --> 00:08:51.287
- If this was a dry run for 2028, it was at least
- 00:08:51.287 --> 00:08:54.890
- Very clarifying.
- 00:08:54.890 --> 00:08:56.492
- She didn't pull any punches there.
- 00:08:56.492 --> 00:08:58.194
- And what was interesting,
- 00:08:58.194 --> 00:08:59.528
- And this is why i called her, i said,
- 00:08:59.528 --> 00:09:01.497
- I really believe that you are saying these things sincerely.
- 00:09:01.497 --> 00:09:05.534
- I just couldn't disagree with you more.
- 00:09:05.534 --> 00:09:07.536
- More like like forcefully.
- 00:09:07.536 --> 00:09:10.272
- I actually think that it was not a very bad week.
- 00:09:10.272 --> 00:09:13.976
- Rich for the vice president.
- 00:09:13.976 --> 00:09:15.311
- I think if anything i've been hearing,
- 00:09:15.311 --> 00:09:16.612
- His stock has been rising.
- 00:09:16.612 --> 00:09:17.813
- People are really impressed with how
- 00:09:17.813 --> 00:09:19.015
- He's comported himself, how he's been,
- 00:09:19.015 --> 00:09:21.784
- Engaging in his interviews and fighting for his viewpoint
- 00:09:21.784 --> 00:09:25.788
- And making great case to the american people.
- 00:09:25.788 --> 00:09:27.757
- That's my pov.
- 00:09:27.757 --> 00:09:28.791
- What what is the polls show?
- 00:09:28.791 --> 00:09:30.259
- Rich, look.
- 00:09:30.259 --> 00:09:31.694
- Yeah, i mean, there is
- 00:09:31.694 --> 00:09:32.895
- A personal opinion and oh, by the way, of course,
- 00:09:32.895 --> 00:09:35.531
- Thanks for having me on.
- 00:09:35.531 --> 00:09:36.632
- There's a personal opinion, andrew, that like
- 00:09:36.632 --> 00:09:39.135
- You may not agree with and i think that's
- 00:09:39.135 --> 00:09:41.370
- What she's getting mixed up here.
- 00:09:41.370 --> 00:09:43.272
- There's your feelings
- 00:09:43.272 --> 00:09:44.407
- And then there's reality and what the country thinks.
- 00:09:44.407 --> 00:09:47.276
- And the reality is vance's stock has risen as a
- 00:09:47.276 --> 00:09:51.180
- As empirically we can prove this.
- 00:09:51.180 --> 00:09:53.549
- He's up ten points in nomination
- 00:09:53.549 --> 00:09:55.451
- Polling, which we're doing.
- 00:09:55.451 --> 00:09:56.452
- It'll probably be out tomorrow
- 00:09:56.452 --> 00:09:57.787
- If i don't get it out later today.
- 00:09:57.787 --> 00:09:59.321
- The peace deal is basically 80, 20 positive or popular.
- 00:09:59.321 --> 00:10:03.959
- And we have to keep in mind that,
- 00:10:03.959 --> 00:10:06.696
- This war was not popular.
- 00:10:06.696 --> 00:10:08.597
- And i think what people who supported
- 00:10:08.597 --> 00:10:10.433
- Didn't seem to understand is that this deal,
- 00:10:10.433 --> 00:10:14.003
- Whether we like it or not,
- 00:10:14.003 --> 00:10:15.371
- It is a consequence of starting a war
- 00:10:15.371 --> 00:10:19.508
- Without the support of the american
- 00:10:19.508 --> 00:10:21.010
- Public behind you, which means that any military solution
- 00:10:21.010 --> 00:10:24.847
- That you think you can achieve is not really a viable option.
- 00:10:24.847 --> 00:10:28.284
- You're just completely duping yourself into believing
- 00:10:28.284 --> 00:10:31.120
- That the united states of america
- 00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:32.822
- And the voters of america
- 00:10:32.822 --> 00:10:34.123
- Are going to take thousands and thousands of casualties,
- 00:10:34.123 --> 00:10:36.959
- While armies of u.s.
- 00:10:36.959 --> 00:10:38.160
- Soldiers go marching into iran to grab uranium
- 00:10:38.160 --> 00:10:41.997
- That they don't care about.
- 00:10:41.997 --> 00:10:43.466
- And you're like,
- 00:10:43.466 --> 00:10:44.533
- This isn't come on, this is a little bit looney.
- 00:10:44.533 --> 00:10:46.736
- Just to give you an idea, the president hasn't been able
- 00:10:46.736 --> 00:10:48.738
- To creep about 42% since this war started.
- 00:10:48.738 --> 00:10:51.540
- That's the reality of the situation.
- 00:10:51.540 --> 00:10:53.542
- He's going to get about a ten point bump in approval
- 00:10:53.542 --> 00:10:56.946
- In our poll from the last one that released last month.
- 00:10:56.946 --> 00:11:00.082
- The generic ballot is already tightening.
- 00:11:00.082 --> 00:11:02.251
- It's not where it needs to be.
- 00:11:02.251 --> 00:11:03.719
- But the last generic ballot that we put out was the largest
- 00:11:03.719 --> 00:11:06.455
- Lead for any party in the history of our polling.
- 00:11:06.455 --> 00:11:08.824
- Democrats had a 13 point lead, which was up from an 11 point
- 00:11:08.824 --> 00:11:12.394
- Lead the month before.
- 00:11:12.394 --> 00:11:13.763
- This was all to punish the republican party
- 00:11:13.763 --> 00:11:16.365
- And the trump administration for starting a war
- 00:11:16.365 --> 00:11:18.534
- They explicitly stated they did not want.
- 00:11:18.534 --> 00:11:21.370
- Period.
- 00:11:21.370 --> 00:11:22.138
- So, you know, the vice president,
- 00:11:22.138 --> 00:11:24.073
- This is another thing i'd say about that with him
- 00:11:24.073 --> 00:11:26.142
- Specifically,
- 00:11:26.142 --> 00:11:27.376
- Is that when we started, right after the deal was announced,
- 00:11:27.376 --> 00:11:30.479
- It was popular
- 00:11:30.479 --> 00:11:31.447
- Because people were knee jerk, saying, yes,
- 00:11:31.447 --> 00:11:33.215
- I support it because i didn't support the war.
- 00:11:33.215 --> 00:11:35.284
- But as time went on, we were interested to see
- 00:11:35.284 --> 00:11:37.853
- What would happen to that margin,
- 00:11:37.853 --> 00:11:39.255
- Because it would tell us whether or not
- 00:11:39.255 --> 00:11:40.556
- The vice president was effectively selling it
- 00:11:40.556 --> 00:11:42.758
- And whether people were reacting
- 00:11:42.758 --> 00:11:44.126
- In a positive way to what he was saying.
- 00:11:44.126 --> 00:11:46.061
- The vice president had a stellar week last week.
- 00:11:46.061 --> 00:11:48.297
- His stock rose.
- 00:11:48.297 --> 00:11:49.465
- He got more support as the days went on for this deal.
- 00:11:49.465 --> 00:11:53.002
- Even though we can see,
- 00:11:53.002 --> 00:11:54.303
- Because you and i are in this business,
- 00:11:54.303 --> 00:11:55.604
- We can see how much pushback, even from the president's own
- 00:11:55.604 --> 00:11:59.141
- Supposed side, how much pushback it got.
- 00:11:59.141 --> 00:12:02.178
- So despite all of that
- 00:12:02.178 --> 00:12:03.312
- Pushback, and despite how loud they were,
- 00:12:03.312 --> 00:12:05.447
- The opposition to the deal was they still lost the argument.
- 00:12:05.447 --> 00:12:08.884
- What does that tell you?
- 00:12:08.884 --> 00:12:09.985
- I could make the case though, and this is what i said
- 00:12:09.985 --> 00:12:11.654
- Last week, that that a weakened regime
- 00:12:11.654 --> 00:12:14.657
- Remaining intact in iran could ultimately be
- 00:12:14.657 --> 00:12:17.860
- The best thing for the region, because it doesn't
- 00:12:17.860 --> 00:12:20.963
- It doesn't fall into some sort of civil war,
- 00:12:20.963 --> 00:12:23.833
- Sectarian violence situation that we saw in iraq.
- 00:12:23.833 --> 00:12:26.669
- Right.
- 00:12:26.669 --> 00:12:27.703
- So, so keeping the current structure in place,
- 00:12:27.703 --> 00:12:30.306
- The iranian people want to
- 00:12:30.306 --> 00:12:32.074
- Overthrow their government in the coming months.
- 00:12:32.074 --> 00:12:34.844
- More power to them.
- 00:12:34.844 --> 00:12:36.078
- But that should that be our job.
- 00:12:36.078 --> 00:12:38.314
- And i make the argument very much.
- 00:12:38.314 --> 00:12:40.249
- No, we've learned those lessons in the past,
- 00:12:40.249 --> 00:12:42.518
- And the polling reflects that.
- 00:12:42.518 --> 00:12:44.153
- The american people have internalized those lessons.
- 00:12:44.153 --> 00:12:47.523
- Andrew.
- 00:12:47.756 --> 00:12:48.390
- They're not ignorant here.
- 00:12:48.390 --> 00:12:49.658
- This is what i think
- 00:12:49.658 --> 00:12:50.659
- The, the, the pro-war side never understood.
- 00:12:50.659 --> 00:12:53.295
- The american public is not
- 00:12:53.295 --> 00:12:54.730
- They're not ignorant to the facts.
- 00:12:54.730 --> 00:12:56.799
- The truth is they've been
- 00:12:56.799 --> 00:12:58.334
- Through this before and they don't care.
- 00:12:58.334 --> 00:13:00.536
- The risks to them are not great enough
- 00:13:00.536 --> 00:13:03.606
- To to ultimately pay the cost that there be.
- 00:13:03.606 --> 00:13:06.508
- They're being asked to pay, especially not after
- 00:13:06.508 --> 00:13:09.445
- We've been down this road before.
- 00:13:09.445 --> 00:13:10.980
- It was a long road to baghdad, as the book is titled,
- 00:13:10.980 --> 00:13:14.984
- And they learned a lot of lessons along that road.
- 00:13:14.984 --> 00:13:17.820
- And now here we are
- 00:13:17.820 --> 00:13:18.888
- After electing the peace ticket,
- 00:13:18.888 --> 00:13:21.223
- You know, trying to repeat the same mistake.
- 00:13:21.223 --> 00:13:23.692
- The alternative is what we all have been saying.
- 00:13:23.692 --> 00:13:25.995
- It is this was, you know, never.
- 00:13:25.995 --> 00:13:27.963
- In truth, we were never really having
- 00:13:27.963 --> 00:13:30.299
- A completely honest argument with each other.
- 00:13:30.299 --> 00:13:32.701
- And the fact is,
- 00:13:32.701 --> 00:13:33.736
- The american public knew that they understood.
- 00:13:33.736 --> 00:13:36.438
- Rich, i totally agree.
- 00:13:36.438 --> 00:13:38.841
- There's this second poll that was part of the cbs.
- 00:13:38.841 --> 00:13:41.644
- You said you got the you similar numbers.
- 00:13:41.644 --> 00:13:44.213
- Okay. so and you sent that to me.
- 00:13:44.213 --> 00:13:46.282
- It looks very simple. and then check this out though.
- 00:13:46.282 --> 00:13:48.517
- So so make heads or tails of this.
- 00:13:48.517 --> 00:13:50.853
- Yeah 31%.
- 00:13:50.853 --> 00:13:52.288
- So has the u.s permanent stopped iran's nuclear program?
- 00:13:52.288 --> 00:13:55.724
- J.d. vance is making this
- 00:13:55.724 --> 00:13:57.192
- Making the case that yeah, this will essentially
- 00:13:57.192 --> 00:13:59.695
- Stop there conceding so much on nuclear
- 00:13:59.695 --> 00:14:02.197
- That we will effectively have rendered it an impossibility.
- 00:14:02.197 --> 00:14:05.401
- Okay.
- 00:14:05.401 --> 00:14:06.335
- But the american people do believe that.
- 00:14:06.335 --> 00:14:07.569
- They say 31%.
- 00:14:07.569 --> 00:14:09.138
- Yes, this is done.
- 00:14:09.138 --> 00:14:10.072
- 69%. no, not done.
- 00:14:10.072 --> 00:14:12.141
- How do you make heads or tails of the first poll
- 00:14:12.141 --> 00:14:14.543
- That says, yeah, let's make peace.
- 00:14:14.543 --> 00:14:16.011
- And the second piece of this poll that says, yeah,
- 00:14:16.011 --> 00:14:19.014
- Their nuclear ambitions are not done,
- 00:14:19.014 --> 00:14:21.483
- Just to be clear to so people understand when it comes out.
- 00:14:21.483 --> 00:14:23.719
- We given like an unsure option i don't know.
- 00:14:23.719 --> 00:14:27.456
- And that's the only difference you'll see
- 00:14:27.456 --> 00:14:29.124
- Between our numbers and cbs, for instance,
- 00:14:29.124 --> 00:14:31.160
- Because they don't give an answer.
- 00:14:31.160 --> 00:14:32.061
- You have to pick one of the other.
- 00:14:32.061 --> 00:14:33.495
- How do we make heads or tails of this?
- 00:14:33.495 --> 00:14:34.997
- Actually, i think it's
- 00:14:34.997 --> 00:14:36.098
- I know it makes it seems like it's, inconsistent,
- 00:14:36.098 --> 00:14:39.368
- But it really isn't, because i think
- 00:14:39.368 --> 00:14:41.370
- You have a certain group who saying no, not done
- 00:14:41.370 --> 00:14:44.039
- Because they're looking toward, you know, the negotiation
- 00:14:44.039 --> 00:14:46.875
- Process and all of this being finalized
- 00:14:46.875 --> 00:14:49.778
- Before they're willing to say, yeah,
- 00:14:49.778 --> 00:14:51.480
- I think we sufficiently curb their nuclear program.
- 00:14:51.480 --> 00:14:54.516
- So they're waiting for the, you know, no, not a war
- 00:14:54.516 --> 00:14:57.086
- Ending here.
- 00:14:57.086 --> 00:14:57.886
- And you're right.
- 00:14:57.886 --> 00:14:58.854
- But, the the negotiation process
- 00:14:58.854 --> 00:15:01.824
- That the vice president is promising them.
- 00:15:01.824 --> 00:15:03.325
- So i think some people are saying that.
- 00:15:03.325 --> 00:15:05.094
- And then there is
- 00:15:05.094 --> 00:15:06.128
- Another group of people, which, again, is a hard
- 00:15:06.128 --> 00:15:08.931
- Hurdle for this pro-war group to
- 00:15:08.931 --> 00:15:11.467
- I mean, it's just a hard hurdle for them to jump you.
- 00:15:11.467 --> 00:15:13.736
- It's hard to convince the country
- 00:15:13.736 --> 00:15:15.104
- To do something like this when you have an entire group,
- 00:15:15.104 --> 00:15:17.506
- It's anywhere
- 00:15:17.506 --> 00:15:18.540
- Between 25, 35% at any given time in the country
- 00:15:18.540 --> 00:15:21.110
- That basically says,
- 00:15:21.110 --> 00:15:22.845
- What right
- 00:15:22.845 --> 00:15:23.645
- Do we have to tell another country
- 00:15:23.645 --> 00:15:25.147
- They can't defend themselves with a killer weapons?
- 00:15:25.147 --> 00:15:27.516
- I mean, they just we're arguing a regime
- 00:15:27.516 --> 00:15:30.719
- Certain regimes aren't allowed to have certain weapons.
- 00:15:30.719 --> 00:15:34.323
- And the fact of the matter is, a very significant percentage
- 00:15:34.323 --> 00:15:37.760
- Of the american public doesn't even agree with that.
- 00:15:37.760 --> 00:15:40.662
- So when they say, no, it's not done, it's
- 00:15:40.662 --> 00:15:42.898
- Because some of them think that eventually
- 00:15:42.898 --> 00:15:44.566
- Iran probably will get a nuclear weapon,
- 00:15:44.566 --> 00:15:46.568
- And it's not really our prerogative
- 00:15:46.568 --> 00:15:48.003
- To tell countries around the world that they can.
- 00:15:48.003 --> 00:15:50.606
- And to be clear, what do these people think
- 00:15:50.606 --> 00:15:52.474
- When they see these things?
- 00:15:52.474 --> 00:15:53.842
- Kim jong un was supposed to be a monster.
- 00:15:53.842 --> 00:15:55.744
- Two guys.
- 00:15:55.744 --> 00:15:56.378
- I mean,
- 00:15:56.378 --> 00:15:57.012
- He was supposed to be this
- 00:15:57.012 --> 00:15:58.247
- A rational actor who couldn't get nuclear weapons or icbms
- 00:15:58.247 --> 00:16:01.116
- Because if he did, seoul wouldn't exist the next day.
- 00:16:01.116 --> 00:16:03.952
- Japan wouldn't exist the next day.
- 00:16:03.952 --> 00:16:06.021
- Meanwhile, here we are. he's got them.
- 00:16:06.021 --> 00:16:08.257
- Pakistan, obviously in the region as well.
- 00:16:08.257 --> 00:16:10.726
- They were supposed.
- 00:16:10.726 --> 00:16:11.960
- This is a country that housed osama bin laden a few miles
- 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:14.930
- From the main intel center for years.
- 00:16:14.930 --> 00:16:17.132
- Yeah. i'm. yeah, you're right.
- 00:16:17.132 --> 00:16:18.667
- I mean, rich,
- 00:16:18.667 --> 00:16:19.535
- You know, this is why there was such
- 00:16:19.535 --> 00:16:20.669
- A vocal opposition to elbridge colby.
- 00:16:20.669 --> 00:16:22.838
- And charlie really supported
- 00:16:22.838 --> 00:16:24.273
- Elbridge colby because elbridge had published a paper,
- 00:16:24.273 --> 00:16:27.910
- You know, sort of arguing that there could be a realism,
- 00:16:27.910 --> 00:16:31.447
- A pragmatic realism approach to iran, even if it had nukes.
- 00:16:31.447 --> 00:16:35.584
- Right now, president trump has said that's not an option.
- 00:16:35.584 --> 00:16:37.786
- Okay. so he went in and dealt with it.
- 00:16:37.786 --> 00:16:39.822
- If you get that concession again,
- 00:16:39.822 --> 00:16:42.057
- What what is the alternative?
- 00:16:42.057 --> 00:16:43.792
- 50,000 troops?
- 00:16:43.792 --> 00:16:45.260
- 100,000 troops?
- 00:16:45.260 --> 00:16:46.361
- How many dead americans?
- 00:16:46.361 --> 00:16:47.429
- Who's deploying where, how long?
- 00:16:47.429 --> 00:16:49.298
- How much is going to cost?
- 00:16:49.298 --> 00:16:50.632
- What's the price of oil going to be?
- 00:16:50.632 --> 00:16:52.434
- Nobody can answer those questions.
- 00:16:52.434 --> 00:16:54.403
- What if the alternative is i mean, how long you going
- 00:16:54.403 --> 00:16:57.206
- To keep the blockade going?
- 00:16:57.206 --> 00:17:01.006
- To keep the blockade going?
- 00:17:01.006 --> 00:17:07.083
- We have rich
- 00:17:07.417 --> 00:17:08.184
- Barris, pollster extraordinaire.
- 00:17:08.184 --> 00:17:11.988
- Big data paul, the people's pundit.
- 00:17:11.988 --> 00:17:14.324
- Blake i'm just thinking about that gap we saw in the numbers.
- 00:17:14.324 --> 00:17:17.494
- 31% think the nuclear program is taking down.
- 00:17:17.494 --> 00:17:20.230
- What was it, 78%, 75% say ends the war asap
- 00:17:20.230 --> 00:17:24.367
- Without getting more concessions.
- 00:17:24.367 --> 00:17:26.269
- That's almost that's it's over 40% of the country.
- 00:17:26.269 --> 00:17:29.806
- It that's basically by itself,
- 00:17:29.806 --> 00:17:31.741
- A chunk that could nearly win a presidential election.
- 00:17:31.741 --> 00:17:34.644
- And i just think we wanted to talk about jd
- 00:17:34.644 --> 00:17:37.313
- Presidential stock and i senses in dc maybe it's falling.
- 00:17:37.313 --> 00:17:41.351
- There's a lot of people angry.
- 00:17:41.351 --> 00:17:42.619
- But i think and good dive into this rich.
- 00:17:42.619 --> 00:17:46.122
- I just think they're going to get a rude awakening
- 00:17:46.122 --> 00:17:48.391
- About what the priorities of the american people are.
- 00:17:48.391 --> 00:17:50.860
- It's a lot like it reminds me of
- 00:17:50.860 --> 00:17:52.595
- When president trump was saying stuff about mexico, saying
- 00:17:52.595 --> 00:17:55.565
- The stuff about people coming from crap hole countries
- 00:17:55.565 --> 00:17:58.401
- And everyone saying, oh, trump's done now.
- 00:17:58.401 --> 00:18:00.069
- And then it turned out, oh, it pulled great.
- 00:18:00.069 --> 00:18:01.538
- All of us stuff was pulling. amazingly.
- 00:18:01.538 --> 00:18:03.339
- I think they're going to get
- 00:18:03.339 --> 00:18:04.107
- A similar awakening on iran here.
- 00:18:04.107 --> 00:18:06.943
- Yeah.
- 00:18:07.177 --> 00:18:08.178
- Let me give people a couple of numbers here.
- 00:18:08.178 --> 00:18:09.512
- When jd vance before the war, jd
- 00:18:09.512 --> 00:18:11.514
- Vance was polling, typically between 40 to 55%
- 00:18:11.514 --> 00:18:15.852
- In the nomination, even when the war was going on
- 00:18:15.852 --> 00:18:18.855
- And people were mad, he fell to the mid to high 30s.
- 00:18:18.855 --> 00:18:21.824
- That's still a historic lead for a nomination
- 00:18:21.824 --> 00:18:24.761
- For on the republican side for any president.
- 00:18:24.761 --> 00:18:27.063
- Okay, rich, rich, when you're saying polling,
- 00:18:27.063 --> 00:18:28.831
- You said like one idea
- 00:18:28.831 --> 00:18:30.266
- When you're
- 00:18:30.266 --> 00:18:31.201
- When you're talking about polling, though,
- 00:18:31.201 --> 00:18:32.235
- You're saying who, who do you think should be the
- 00:18:32.235 --> 00:18:33.870
- The standard bearer, the nominee.
- 00:18:33.870 --> 00:18:35.438
- Yeah. yeah. exactly. yeah. just to clear. yeah.
- 00:18:35.438 --> 00:18:37.607
- So just to make sure
- 00:18:37.607 --> 00:18:38.708
- Everybody understands that for the nomination 2028
- 00:18:38.708 --> 00:18:41.311
- Nomination and, you know, not to throw this out
- 00:18:41.311 --> 00:18:44.147
- There, you know, to say, you know, we're we're not,
- 00:18:44.147 --> 00:18:45.949
- You know, measuring here, but that is historic.
- 00:18:45.949 --> 00:18:48.985
- His lead has been historic.
- 00:18:48.985 --> 00:18:50.987
- And now since this peace deal, he's back up to
- 00:18:50.987 --> 00:18:53.856
- Where he was just below his all time high.
- 00:18:53.856 --> 00:18:56.593
- So why?
- 00:18:56.593 --> 00:18:57.660
- Because people were upset about the war.
- 00:18:57.660 --> 00:18:59.662
- Just to give everybody some.
- 00:18:59.662 --> 00:19:00.930
- This is a very important stat.
- 00:19:00.930 --> 00:19:02.832
- Or it's not even really a stat.
- 00:19:02.832 --> 00:19:04.133
- It's it's basic math
- 00:19:04.133 --> 00:19:05.702
- That everyone needs to get through their heads now.
- 00:19:05.702 --> 00:19:08.137
- Which is why, by the way, joshua and i wrote
- 00:19:08.137 --> 00:19:10.106
- Burn it down.
- 00:19:10.106 --> 00:19:11.407
- You have a wing of this coalition
- 00:19:11.407 --> 00:19:14.143
- That is very loud and has a lot of money.
- 00:19:14.143 --> 00:19:16.412
- They're also dying.
- 00:19:16.412 --> 00:19:18.047
- There's no other nice way to put it.
- 00:19:18.047 --> 00:19:19.382
- They're dying
- 00:19:19.382 --> 00:19:20.316
- And they're there's no growth potential
- 00:19:20.316 --> 00:19:22.418
- Because nobody younger and younger generation
- 00:19:22.418 --> 00:19:24.654
- Sees the world that the way they do.
- 00:19:24.654 --> 00:19:26.389
- And of course, it's statistics, not nobody.
- 00:19:26.389 --> 00:19:29.058
- You'll find some people, but the tiny amount
- 00:19:29.058 --> 00:19:31.728
- Is not enough to replenish their ranks.
- 00:19:31.728 --> 00:19:33.529
- When the silent gen and boomer one dies.
- 00:19:33.529 --> 00:19:35.698
- It's that simple.
- 00:19:35.698 --> 00:19:36.799
- And the only faction of the right wing coalition
- 00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:40.503
- That has a platform that appeals to gen
- 00:19:40.503 --> 00:19:42.739
- X and down is the populist anti-war base.
- 00:19:42.739 --> 00:19:46.376
- So this idea, we're somehow going to return to bush ism.
- 00:19:46.376 --> 00:19:49.012
- And, you know,
- 00:19:49.012 --> 00:19:50.079
- There was this whole faction that opposes jd vance,
- 00:19:50.079 --> 00:19:52.448
- And they're going to get him.
- 00:19:52.448 --> 00:19:53.883
- They're going to get an alternative nominated.
- 00:19:53.883 --> 00:19:56.085
- I'm sorry.
- 00:19:56.085 --> 00:19:56.653
- I'm just going to say
- 00:19:56.653 --> 00:19:57.320
- You're going to get a ted cruz
- 00:19:57.320 --> 00:19:58.321
- Or a marco rubio nominated over jd vance,
- 00:19:58.321 --> 00:20:00.723
- And then they somehow have a snowball's chance in hell
- 00:20:00.723 --> 00:20:03.893
- Of winning a national election is not only laughable
- 00:20:03.893 --> 00:20:06.996
- To people who actually understand
- 00:20:06.996 --> 00:20:08.431
- The numbers, it's not only ridiculous,
- 00:20:08.431 --> 00:20:10.700
- And democrats on the other side are just laughing
- 00:20:10.700 --> 00:20:12.802
- Hysterically at how stupid some people could possibly be,
- 00:20:12.802 --> 00:20:15.772
- But it's actually insulting at this point.
- 00:20:15.772 --> 00:20:17.940
- It's insulting to the voters that you would do this,
- 00:20:17.940 --> 00:20:20.643
- That you would not see the ab comparison here.
- 00:20:20.643 --> 00:20:24.047
- You couldn't win a national election to save your life.
- 00:20:24.047 --> 00:20:26.683
- Then you killed the party.
- 00:20:26.683 --> 00:20:28.284
- Donald trump came around and resurrected it like lazarus
- 00:20:28.284 --> 00:20:31.954
- Walks it out of the two of them
- 00:20:31.954 --> 00:20:33.389
- And makes it a national viable force.
- 00:20:33.389 --> 00:20:35.124
- And your your response is to what?
- 00:20:35.124 --> 00:20:37.060
- Go back and start another unpopular, stupid war
- 00:20:37.060 --> 00:20:39.729
- In the middle east, and then trash everybody
- 00:20:39.729 --> 00:20:41.531
- Who represents the faction that's actually growing.
- 00:20:41.531 --> 00:20:43.966
- This is basic arithmetic.
- 00:20:43.966 --> 00:20:46.135
- The neocon faction doesn't have a coalition.
- 00:20:46.135 --> 00:20:49.205
- If you go back, regress and redo this,
- 00:20:49.205 --> 00:20:52.141
- This stupidity again all over, you may not recover this time.
- 00:20:52.141 --> 00:20:56.979
- And i think a lot of people
- 00:20:56.979 --> 00:20:58.247
- In america
- 00:20:58.247 --> 00:20:59.082
- Have this false sense of security
- 00:20:59.082 --> 00:21:00.650
- Where you can keep making the same mistakes
- 00:21:00.650 --> 00:21:02.418
- Over and over again,
- 00:21:02.418 --> 00:21:03.586
- But we're so strong, we can weather them
- 00:21:03.586 --> 00:21:05.755
- And we can take them,
- 00:21:05.755 --> 00:21:06.923
- And there's not going to be
- 00:21:06.923 --> 00:21:08.191
- Any permanent or long term consequences for bad policy.
- 00:21:08.191 --> 00:21:11.327
- Well, you better wake up
- 00:21:11.327 --> 00:21:12.295
- Because every nation is susceptible
- 00:21:12.295 --> 00:21:14.030
- To the laws of nature and nature's god,
- 00:21:14.030 --> 00:21:15.898
- And every nation lives in the international system.
- 00:21:15.898 --> 00:21:18.167
- And i'll just, you know, i say this to, you know, look,
- 00:21:18.167 --> 00:21:21.504
- I said it to her.
- 00:21:21.504 --> 00:21:22.505
- I don't think she'd have a problem.
- 00:21:22.505 --> 00:21:23.606
- I said, it's about you.
- 00:21:23.606 --> 00:21:24.407
- This morning when i called her,
- 00:21:24.407 --> 00:21:25.575
- I just wanted to understand her pov and and and again,
- 00:21:25.575 --> 00:21:28.311
- I hope she's going to come on tomorrow.
- 00:21:28.311 --> 00:21:29.746
- We'll talk about it.
- 00:21:29.746 --> 00:21:30.279
- But, you know,
- 00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:31.881
- If you care about peace in the middle east, wouldn't
- 00:21:31.881 --> 00:21:35.218
- You want to at least offer an olive branch to say, hey,
- 00:21:35.218 --> 00:21:38.254
- Ron, if you act in good behavior,
- 00:21:38.254 --> 00:21:40.223
- We will treat you as a as a sort of normalized country
- 00:21:40.223 --> 00:21:43.760
- On some level.
- 00:21:43.760 --> 00:21:44.827
- And by the way, if you if you want israel to be safe,
- 00:21:44.827 --> 00:21:48.331
- Like them, not having a nuclear weapon
- 00:21:48.331 --> 00:21:50.166
- Seems like a pretty big concession, you know, and j.d.
- 00:21:50.166 --> 00:21:52.802
- Vance has announced that
- 00:21:52.802 --> 00:21:53.736
- They're going to be letting the u.n.
- 00:21:53.736 --> 00:21:55.037
- Inspectors back in, possibly
- 00:21:55.037 --> 00:21:56.406
- Even like this week or something.
- 00:21:56.406 --> 00:21:57.940
- I mean, it could be could be really quickly.
- 00:21:57.940 --> 00:21:59.942
- So anyways, i just i just i think you're right
- 00:21:59.942 --> 00:22:03.546
- When it comes to coalition and you're also right when it,
- 00:22:03.546 --> 00:22:06.249
- When you,
- 00:22:06.249 --> 00:22:07.316
- When you take it to a moral level and what's right
- 00:22:07.316 --> 00:22:08.851
- And what's good and what's what's
- 00:22:08.851 --> 00:22:10.219
- What's actually the right decision. right.
- 00:22:10.219 --> 00:22:11.821
- Because we could talk till we're blue in the face
- 00:22:11.821 --> 00:22:13.322
- About coalitions, but then the, the other side will say,
- 00:22:13.322 --> 00:22:16.125
- But what is right,
- 00:22:16.125 --> 00:22:17.093
- What is good, what is moral, what is true.
- 00:22:17.093 --> 00:22:18.995
- And it's and in this instance they they align the coalition.
- 00:22:18.995 --> 00:22:23.032
- Their instincts are right here that the people want peace.
- 00:22:23.032 --> 00:22:26.135
- We don't want to see the middle east fall
- 00:22:26.135 --> 00:22:27.470
- Into another civil war sectarian mess.
- 00:22:27.470 --> 00:22:29.639
- And hey, we don't want nukes.
- 00:22:29.639 --> 00:22:31.707
- Okay, there you go, guys.
- 00:22:31.707 --> 00:22:33.776
- Even the upper class is getting, anxiety.
- 00:22:33.776 --> 00:22:37.713
- I don't know if anybody saw that
- 00:22:37.713 --> 00:22:38.981
- In the wall street journal last week.
- 00:22:38.981 --> 00:22:40.483
- Even the upper class now.
- 00:22:40.483 --> 00:22:42.185
- And we have seen this in our polling.
- 00:22:42.185 --> 00:22:43.886
- And now the wall street
- 00:22:43.886 --> 00:22:44.720
- Journal picked it up
- 00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:45.521
- And they wrote a headline over it
- 00:22:45.521 --> 00:22:46.923
- Because they found it so interesting.
- 00:22:46.923 --> 00:22:48.724
- You know, for many, many years, all of us,
- 00:22:48.724 --> 00:22:50.793
- The three of us, charlie, many, many other personalities
- 00:22:50.793 --> 00:22:53.863
- Have been talking about the anxiety
- 00:22:53.863 --> 00:22:55.264
- That the working class has felt in this country
- 00:22:55.264 --> 00:22:57.567
- Because their needs are not being met.
- 00:22:57.567 --> 00:22:59.735
- And that working class base expanded for trump beyond white
- 00:22:59.735 --> 00:23:03.239
- Working class people,
- 00:23:03.239 --> 00:23:04.440
- Because they started to feel that now even we're making.
- 00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:07.210
- Yeah, we're making you know, we're,
- 00:23:07.210 --> 00:23:08.845
- We're we're seeing that climb the economic ladder,
- 00:23:08.845 --> 00:23:11.514
- Which is concerning.
- 00:23:11.514 --> 00:23:12.482
- So that is a moral decision.
- 00:23:12.482 --> 00:23:14.617
- Mitch bear is a great stuff, man.
- 00:23:14.617 --> 00:23:16.652
- Really great stuff.
- 00:23:16.652 --> 00:23:17.553
- All the big data.
- 00:23:17.553 --> 00:23:19.222
- Paul, burn it down. get his book. burn it down.
- 00:23:19.222 --> 00:23:21.891
- Joshua. isaac.
- 00:23:21.891 --> 00:23:23.192
