00:00:07.960 Ooh, then it's the vacation of a lifetime.
00:00:12.320 I wonder if my head of office has a forever setting.

00:00:30.000 So Tucker comes out and posts a video out of nowhere, and everybody's like, wait a minute, what is this video about?
00:00:36.680 Rob, if you want to pull it up on X or wherever you have it, you may have it on your own that you've downloaded.
00:00:42.960 Yeah, go for it.
00:00:44.080 He posts, Rob, is this only $1.56 of it?
00:00:47.020 Yes, it's a shorter clip of it.
00:00:48.620 Is it the beginning of it?
00:00:49.860 Yeah, where he's talking about the text.
00:00:51.340 So here's Tucker, go for it.
00:00:53.340 the CIA is preparing some kind of criminal referral against me, a crime report to the
00:00:59.280 Department of Justice on the basis of a supposed crime I committed. What's that crime? Well,
00:01:05.240 talking to people in Iran before the war. They read my texts. So the crime under consideration
00:01:12.920 apparently would be the Foreign Agent Act or something like that, acting as an agent of a
00:01:18.120 power. And I don't expect this to go anywhere. I'm not too worried about an actual criminal case
00:01:24.700 against me for a bunch of reasons. One, I'm not an agent of a foreign power. Unlike a lot of people
00:01:30.160 commenting on U.S. politics and global affairs, I have only one loyalty, and that's the United
00:01:34.840 States, and have never acted against it. Its interests are the only interests I care about
00:01:39.240 because I'm from here and I have a lot of kids. So that's not a concern. I've also never taken
00:01:45.780 money from anybody, don't need it, don't want it, and that's provable. And moreover, it's my job to
00:01:52.400 talk to everybody all the time and try and figure out what's happening around the world. That's
00:01:56.400 literally what I do for a living, and I'm not going to stop doing that, nor should I, I don't
00:02:01.620 think. I'm also an American. I can talk to anybody. I have no secrets to divulge. So legally, I think
00:02:08.240 the case is ludicrous, and I doubt it will even become a case. I'm bringing this up for a couple
00:02:13.360 of reasons, though, and they're pretty obvious. One is that countries tend to become more
00:02:20.440 authoritarian in wartime. It's just the nature of war. People are dying. The stakes are high.
00:02:26.040 People's emotions have risen to a very high point, to a crescendo. And so there's much less
00:02:32.960 tolerance for any kind of dissent in the homeland. The irony, of course, is the United States fights
00:02:40.020 wars on behalf of freedom but there's always less of it here in our country during war so that's a
00:02:45.320 widely recognized phenomenon and it's likely to happen now too okay vinny thoughts well so let's
00:02:52.980 let's go all the way back to the beginning he said the cia it read my text so i don't think me
00:02:59.940 personally i mean he has connections allegedly with the cia with his father there's controversy
00:03:03.940 see if he wasn't if he is he might know people in the CIA but the the CIA is not monitoring
00:03:09.280 Tucker Carlson the CIA during war is more than likely monitoring all the leadership of the
00:03:16.140 Iranian IRGC so if they're monitoring that and then all of a sudden they see an American number
00:03:20.920 I don't know if it's Tucker's team but this is all my opinion this is what I think they trigger
00:03:25.880 that and they say wait a minute Tucker Carlson is talking to the leadership over there potentially
00:03:30.140 just to have an interview Tom maybe maybe he just wants to go there and talk which is whatever I
00:03:34.360 get it you want to talk to the Ayatollah whenever it happened okay fine I understand that but then
00:03:39.280 I started thinking wait what a couple weeks ago do you guys remember what we questioned on this
00:03:44.240 podcast Tucker Tucker was very critical critical of the president which is his total right he can
00:03:49.020 do whatever he wants talking crap about the president and then all of a sudden he was in
00:03:52.340 the White House and then we even saw him walk in he like looked at Tucker he didn't give him any
00:03:56.200 love. He saw Tucker, and then they took this photo. Tom, do you guys remember this? He took
00:04:00.700 this photo. Trump is smiling really, really hard. And then I thought about it. Maybe there's a
00:04:06.360 reason. Maybe, you know, Trump knew because of the CIA. He gets briefings all the time. He's in
00:04:12.300 communication with Iran. Let him keep doing that. This photo goes out. The Iranian government sees
00:04:18.500 it with them smiling. Maybe they think that Tucker's talking to the president, and he's in
00:04:22.680 his ear and he's cool communication keeps happening maybe he's trying to talk to the ayatollah
00:04:27.300 tom and that communication finds out exactly where the ayatollah is and we bomb and we kill
00:04:32.180 him how early into the war was it pat do you guys remember it was quick right when we started
00:04:36.640 so maybe that's it maybe you know they're they were using tucker maybe but now maybe they're
00:04:42.580 going to go after him for having this communication about the war maybe he will divulge some
00:04:46.880 information but i think he might have been used uh by the president that's my opinion i'm just
00:04:51.960 saying you never know well something weird is going on with tucker that's undeniable whether
00:04:58.200 you're on team tucker or not on team tucker i'll let you decide that but certainly this is not the
00:05:04.340 tucker that we're used to from the 90s or even the last 20 years by the way trump will have people
00:05:10.120 that he completely disagrees with and have them in the oval office you already kicked tucker out
00:05:15.020 of maga you already said that about a week ago he's out just like you'll have someone like mom
00:05:19.160 Donnie in the office and say, all right, this guy's a socialist, communist, Islamist, but I'll
00:05:23.920 invite him in. We can get along. So I don't look at this as anything other than Trump will talk to
00:05:29.080 his enemies. But the bigger conversation with Tucker is this. Is he trying to bring people
00:05:35.380 together and be a synergist and be a unifier? Or is he being divisive? In my opinion, he's not
00:05:42.540 bringing people together at all he's causing division he's causing outrage and i'm all for
00:05:49.360 debate one of our cornerstones here is having debate cool debate policy debate what you think
00:05:55.520 should be done but at the end of the day the republican party is the lat trump is the last
00:06:02.620 thing that we have before the uh enemies at our gates enter america and the rest of the world and
00:06:10.380 and tucker just sort of like glossing over islamism and you know i'm an american so i buy
00:06:17.960 a house in qatar something is kind of weird for that i would love to see tucker get to a place
00:06:23.740 of normalcy or be someone that can actually help trump but if you don't support trump and you're
00:06:29.960 actively trying to sow chaos in trump world what's going to happen you're going to lose elections
00:06:36.060 That means you're going to hand power to the left.
00:06:38.920 And that's just political suicide.
00:06:40.760 So at the end of the day is this.
00:06:42.140 Is Tucker helping Trump or is he hurting Trump?
00:06:44.840 And in my humble opinion, he's doing everything that is possible,
00:06:48.000 anything in his power, to basically hurt Trump.
00:06:50.220 But what do you think about this situation, Adam?
00:06:51.740 About the CIA?
00:06:52.380 Like the CIA?
00:06:53.180 This isn't a joke.
00:06:54.320 The CIA is reading your text and going after you
00:06:56.820 and saying that they might, like, open up, like, a legal case against you.
00:07:01.080 They have to show why, though.
00:07:02.020 That's why I'm all for sure.
00:07:03.080 They're not doing it for nothing.
00:07:04.720 This isn't a...
00:07:05.160 By the way, in this case, it's one of a few things.
00:07:09.140 Either you can talk to anybody you want to talk to.
00:07:12.740 Yes.
00:07:13.180 But if you come to the White House and you meet with the president and then you go and communicate with Iran and then it shows communication that you shared a part of the conversation you had with Trump.
00:07:27.540 With anybody in the IRGC, you're going to jail.
00:07:29.840 So guess what?
00:07:31.160 Yeah.
00:07:31.960 90% chance he didn't do that.
00:07:33.800 Yeah, of course.
00:07:34.280 So if he didn't do that, he has nothing to worry about.
00:07:37.220 If, like, we had a call with Ahmadinejad three times.
00:07:40.180 Each time was about where we're doing the interview.
00:07:42.680 If anybody sees any of that recording, no one's getting in trouble because the conversations are, meet us at this country in Europe.
00:07:50.540 Let's interview here.
00:07:51.640 I'm not comfortable doing the interview here because if I do it, they're going to catch me and I would like to do it in Europe.
00:07:56.100 Are you willing to meet me in Europe?
00:07:57.360 And, Rob, you remember within 18 hours of our flight, everybody's ready, everybody's locked and loaded to go to this country.
00:08:04.280 Last minute, they canceled, they said, there's a death threat on me, story comes out, they're trying to take care of Ahmadinejad, nothing happened.
00:08:10.120 So if it's that kind of a conversation, because Tucker said, they did this to me as a woman, I was at Fox, I was trying to interview Putin, and it didn't work out, and then a year later, I was able to get the interview and I went and did it.
00:08:19.840 Nobody saw that as a problem.
00:08:21.140 Great, that was a good interview, 400 million views, it was a great conversation, everybody wanted to see that, criticize him for, Putin went on 30 minutes talking about the history of Russia and all, no problem.
00:08:30.920 if you are helping and you came to the white house i want you rested i want you rested if
00:08:39.800 you're helping which i believe less than 10 chance he was less than 10 chance he was and the only
00:08:46.620 reason he was the 10 that he could have is the following you ever meet these types of people
00:08:52.820 that they naturally talk too comfortably
00:08:58.840 about stuff that they shouldn't be talking about.
00:09:01.460 Absolutely.
00:09:01.840 Without your permission.
00:09:02.860 Yep, loose lips.
00:09:03.680 I have people like this in my life till today.
00:09:05.480 Some of them are very close to me.
00:09:07.000 They'll never be in the inner of the inner of the inner circle.
00:09:10.060 But you know what I will do at times?
00:09:12.800 Like when I ran the insurance company
00:09:14.780 and I knew a guy that hated me the most
00:09:17.340 and I wanted to make sure who he talks to the most,
00:09:19.920 I would take him out to dinner
00:09:20.960 and I would drop three things nobody else knows about.
00:09:24.420 Then I would wait for two weeks to see who brings it back to me.
00:09:27.920 And then two weeks later, who brings it back to me?
00:09:29.620 I'm like, okay, so those are the people you talked to.
00:09:31.180 Okay, now I put you guys in this camp.
00:09:32.420 I know who you guys are.
00:09:33.100 Great.
00:09:33.660 And I knew he was the guy that was trying to do everything in his power
00:09:36.440 to hurt the company, and it wasn't really hurting the company.
00:09:39.200 It was trying to hurt me.
00:09:39.920 So I haven't seen Tucker being too, what's the word, too pro-Trump.
00:09:47.380 He's been very critical of Trump for a long time now.
00:09:50.960 Not a short period.
00:09:51.900 By the way, you know who this hurts the most?
00:09:54.900 You know all this stuff that they're talking about,
00:09:56.400 who it hurts the most?
00:09:58.500 The person this hurts the most, believe it or not,
00:10:01.620 you best believe it's one person.
00:10:03.660 J.D. Vance?
00:10:04.280 J.D. Vance that hurts the most.
00:10:05.760 You know why?
00:10:06.560 Because Tucker's son works for J.D.
00:10:08.060 You want to go to Calci today?
00:10:10.200 Rubio and Vance are officially tied.
00:10:14.580 Wow.
00:10:15.000 Okay, look at that right there.
00:10:16.620 And Rubio's about to pass up Newsom 0.3%.
00:10:19.420 $18.7 million.
00:10:22.880 Yep.
00:10:23.300 Okay?
00:10:23.980 $18.7 million is what you're talking about, okay, on where it's at.
00:10:30.120 So, in some ways, you look at it, Rubio's ahead.
00:10:32.520 So, what happened here?
00:10:33.500 What's that, Tom?
00:10:34.280 One-month shift.
00:10:35.120 Look at the one.
00:10:35.760 This is 30 days.
00:10:36.620 Yeah, go back, Rob, go back February 14th.
00:10:39.300 Just go back to February 14th.
00:10:40.980 Look at that.
00:10:41.640 Wow.
00:10:41.860 Rubio 9.4, JD 24, Newsom 21.
00:10:45.460 jd's 2x sink him 3x sink him right 27 is 3x come to today tied so you you don't think you
00:10:54.400 don't think by the way knowing the way trump is you don't think trump is sitting there saying
00:10:58.020 uh who do you think jd's in the top 20 people that he trusts in the camp nope you think he's
00:11:03.920 on that list yes top 20 you think he's in the list when he comes on to issues like this you
00:11:09.120 think he's the guy that brings in for every single thing that he's processing i don't think so i don't
00:11:12.960 think so i don't think so i don't i don't think that's happening today because of the ties okay
00:11:18.160 because the the loyalty of tucker's son is going to be the who who first say it again the loyalty
00:11:25.360 of tucker's son who's working for jd as an insider's to who first jd first yeah and then
00:11:32.700 first exactly yeah it's to tucker first so you have to know like you know what's going on over
00:11:37.960 here it's a little bit of a i think it could be a uh uh you know when they say uh when they say
00:11:45.140 trump uh you know what's something d chess he plays a 3d chess or 3d chess or whatever he plays
00:11:52.600 it's too many stuff that happens for you to say this man's not smart this man doesn't know what
00:11:58.220 he's doing this is too many times you bring the guy in can you imagine like do you think it's
00:12:04.220 possible do you think this is trump like to do the following to bring tucker in and drop some
00:12:09.340 information for him to leave and go give it to iran and iranians think nothing's happening
00:12:15.620 and then all of a sudden for them to attack him and kill them all oh you don't think that's
00:12:19.400 possible i i there was an ai video going around did you see the ai video of uh let me let me show
00:12:24.580 it to you guys adam i'll come to you and i'm going to show this ai video go ahead adam your thoughts
00:12:30.080 no i'm fully on the same page with you tom i'm sorry i haven't gone to tom yet
00:12:33.500 Tom, your thoughts on this. I'll tell you what I think. You know how I parse things that get stated.
00:12:39.600 You know, I like drive into the words when I know people are speaking carefully.
00:12:44.040 I dive into the words over the weekend. I believe it was over the weekend.
00:12:48.180 I think Rob has it somewhere. You know what J.D. Vance says when they asked him about something he talked to Trump about, Pat?
00:12:55.240 What? He says, well, I don't have a comment on that. And he goes, I don't want to go to prison.
00:12:59.480 that's not what you say you know when you're talking about the president and you're the vp
00:13:07.300 to me when i hear things like that even if you're just off the cuff even if you're just an open mic
00:13:12.840 even if it's just one you know it's like you're being you're walking and then the the press guy
00:13:18.400 you know what i mean pat comes up puts a microphone on your face one more thing one more thing and he
00:13:22.640 says well i'm not gonna say anything about that and he goes why is that well i don't want to go
00:13:26.280 to prison it's like that's what jd vance said this is 72 less than 72 hours ago so it also you
00:13:33.180 know what that says to me when you hear that pat what do you think maybe a little bitter maybe a
00:13:37.180 little frustrated you're left out you don't say that i haven't seen this is this the one rob he's
00:13:41.540 talking about yes sir can you get to the point of you're gonna go is it right off the bat he goes
00:13:45.200 to you going to prison check hang on um could i say something that's a heavy thing to say i gotta
00:13:49.940 give credit where credit is due so so vance apparently raised concerns privately about the
00:13:55.320 strikes in iran um for internal discussions and then uh he was questioning the u.s's involvement
00:14:01.960 all that stuff and then president trump later confirmed that vance said uh that he said vance
00:14:06.740 was less enthusiastic about the strikes and you said this last week and i have to give credit where
00:14:11.700 credit's due jd is smart because he's quietly putting daylight between him himself and this
00:14:17.420 war because he's not openly fighting trump he's not openly uh uh saying anything about the strikes
00:14:22.500 But he's making sure it's on record that he has concerns and he's less enthusiastic.
00:14:27.400 You know why, Tom?
00:14:28.080 Because if this gets drawn out, which it looks like it's going to go a couple of months,
00:14:31.760 he could always say, hey, I was in the room.
00:14:34.420 You said this last week.
00:14:35.640 I warned them all.
00:14:37.180 I warned them all.
00:14:38.020 And by the way, in 2028, Marco Rubio was the main guy, and he's a hawk.
00:14:42.900 I'm not.
00:14:43.660 And that's going to be his separation.
00:14:45.240 And it's going to be J.D. Vance and all that PayPal mafia, Tom, and all the what's the other thing?
00:14:50.140 I'm telling you, Adam, this is a very, very, very smart thing that he said last week.
00:14:54.300 And yesterday as I was reading this, I was like, oh, wow, that's why he's doing it.
00:14:58.060 He's distancing himself, but he's not trashing the president publicly.
00:15:00.880 And look carefully at his path.
00:15:02.280 Is he the legislative path or is he the leader-governor path?
00:15:05.400 He's the leader-governor path, right?
00:15:06.780 J.D.?
00:15:07.260 No, he's the legislative path.
00:15:08.660 What do you mean?
00:15:08.900 And when legislators fight each other in an election, they said, excuse me, I did not vote for that.
00:15:15.580 Yes.
00:15:16.080 That's the position.
00:15:17.280 You see that?
00:15:17.820 That's a lot different from a governor who's got his butt on the line when there's a natural disaster and you have to show leadership and you have to make the call.
00:15:25.620 Governors, he says, are CEOs of states.
00:15:28.520 The president, we have a leader right now that makes decisions.
00:15:32.700 And J.D. sounds a little bit too much like a legislator politician.
00:15:36.400 Now, hang on a second.
00:15:37.280 My voting record is clear on that, and I didn't vote on that one.
00:15:40.480 Smart.
00:15:41.200 Yeah.
00:15:41.400 Is this it, Rob?
00:15:42.300 Yes.
00:15:42.660 Go for it.
00:15:43.100 But imagine the situation. We're in the situation room where you can't even take your iPod in there or your AirPods, I guess what they're called.
00:15:51.880 You can't take your iPhone in there. You can't take anything in there because it is the most classified space anywhere in the world.
00:15:56.280 And I sit there with Pete Hegseth and General Cain and Marco Rubio and the entire White House team.
00:16:00.860 And the president and I and the entire senior team are talking about the options and about what we need to do and about how we must best protect the American people.
00:16:07.920 I hate to disappoint you, but I'm not going to show up here in front of God and everybody else, tell you exactly what I said in that classified room.
00:16:13.100 Partially because I don't want to go to prison and partially because I think it's important for the president of the United States to be able to talk to his advisers without those advisers running their mouth to the American media.
00:16:23.260 I thought it was actually a good answer.
00:16:25.540 I actually think that was a good answer.
00:16:28.460 Listen, on one end, I was just criticizing, you know, how it's going to hurt him.
00:16:33.020 I didn't think that was a bad answer.
00:16:34.120 I think he gave the proper.
00:16:35.720 See, that's the thing with J.D.
00:16:37.240 He is so good in giving the right answer in the right places.
00:16:42.120 It's the reason why he's at 18.6%.
00:16:45.480 18.6% is still a lot to be that high.
00:16:48.640 I just think right now with what's going on, is this, what's this, Rob?
00:16:53.340 Is this an AI video?
00:16:54.560 Yes, sir.
00:16:55.140 Okay, this is the AI.
00:16:56.440 This is what they're claiming happened, okay?
00:16:59.560 I don't know if you've seen this video or not.
00:17:00.960 I have not.
00:17:01.460 This is an AI video saying that Trump played Tucker to take out the leaders of Iran.
00:17:06.900 Now, again, keep in mind, guys, they're making fun.
00:17:10.500 So it's not like it's an AI video.
00:17:12.500 Go ahead, Rob.
00:17:14.500 Tucker, I want you to come to the White House.
00:17:16.840 Believe me.
00:17:17.940 Me?
00:17:18.620 I mean, sure.
00:17:20.020 Thank you, Mr. President.
00:17:25.140 Qatar Airlines.
00:17:28.240 That's funny with a Ted Bear.
00:17:31.420 I'm just bluffing with Iran, you know.
00:17:34.260 It's the art of the deal, baby.
00:17:36.820 Okay, yeah, President Trump is just bluffing.
00:17:38.720 You guys are totally safe.
00:17:40.500 is it possible is it possible oh by the way it is not possible
00:18:04.840 is it possible that trump plays media guys and presidents have done this it is the oldest
00:18:12.140 oh yeah you have to do that especially when you know sometimes the people that agree with you
00:18:18.300 are not as useful as those who don't agree with you but i want to act like they agree with you
00:18:22.220 the people that act like they support you yeah but deep down inside you know they don't and it's
00:18:28.200 not hard to do so he knows that like he has enough intel to know like you don't think trump is asking
00:18:32.960 people and say, how are those guys doing?
00:18:35.140 Not really too critical. They're fair.
00:18:37.040 How are those guys doing? Yeah, how are
00:18:39.000 those guys doing? How are those guys doing?
00:18:40.860 No, he's been very critical. Really, show me
00:18:42.900 something. Boom, he said this. Okay, let's
00:18:45.060 invite him to the White House. You invite
00:18:47.120 critics to the White House. You don't invite supporters
00:18:48.940 to the White House. You invite those guys to
00:18:51.020 the White House and talk to them. Hey, Bill Maher, bring Bill Maher to
00:18:53.000 the White House. Bring this guy to
00:18:54.980 the White House. Let's bring him in and talk to him.
00:18:56.600 And then, boom. Hey, here's what we're...
00:18:58.660 So, to me, I think
00:19:00.100 bring Mamdani to the White House. Yeah, yeah,
00:19:02.860 bring no you can say that just say it just say that you you still feel the same way about me
00:19:06.800 just go yeah no this if again less than 10 chance i think tucker did that but if tucker is going
00:19:15.300 ahead making a video like that the only reason you make a video like that is to give your claim
00:19:23.780 before there is legalities that you can't talk so the last thing they hear from you is
00:19:29.160 you saying this yeah and by the way for him if his father was in the cia you don't think some
00:19:34.420 of the guys in the cia are pro tucker of course they are of course of course and they're sitting
00:19:37.700 there saying let me get this over to you and and um so and by the way there's other things going
00:19:42.260 on as well with megan kelly and mark levin i don't know if you guys are following that or not
00:19:45.620 so can i address the jd thing yeah because you want to move on to that i i think jd vance is
00:19:51.200 kind of screwed because uh let's look at the options of what jd vance can go let's so in my
00:19:58.600 in in jd vance is almost like kamala harris like no kings no anointments you're gonna have to go
00:20:04.160 through a primary mr vice president you want to end up like persona non grata mike pence you want
00:20:10.660 to go against trump you will be alienated and blackballed from the maga movement like don't
00:20:16.360 forget trump could have brought anybody in to be the vice president he had a mandate all seven
00:20:23.460 swing states won the popular vote how much did advance affect the election a little bit
00:20:29.520 but any other vice president could have done that so your job is to defend the administration and
00:20:36.460 defend the agenda now because there's at least the perception that you're not doing that
00:20:42.960 it leaves the door open for the person that is uniquely qualified to do do that which is
00:20:50.680 marco rubio how many times have you seen any single escalation any war marco rubio sitting
00:20:56.600 there in the in the oval office he's now the president of uh venezuela he's now the president
00:21:03.140 potentially of cuba he's now the ayatollah of iran how many other uh jobs is marco rubio gonna
00:21:09.240 have so momentum is a hell of a thing rubio has all the momentum jd vance has very minimal
00:21:16.260 momentum and the fact that he's aligned with tucker trump is looking at him and being like
00:21:20.860 i can't really trust you you don't really deserve the job compared to rubio and your son is close
00:21:28.180 with tucker i don't trust tucker therefore i don't really trust you so you better prove yourself
00:21:33.220 i will tell you i thought he was a perfect vp pick for trump perfect vp pick for trump i i think if
00:21:40.760 If he doesn't pick him as a VP, chance of him winning goes down 50%.
00:21:44.300 You think so?
00:21:45.080 One million percent.
00:21:46.340 Why?
00:21:47.000 I'll tell you why.
00:21:47.740 Because you got the technocrats that were in because they're J.D.
00:21:51.280 The MAGA 2.0, the Silicon Valley.
00:21:52.880 The Musks, all these guys.
00:21:54.160 Are you kidding me?
00:21:54.560 Peter too.
00:21:55.060 You know how important he was for them?
00:21:57.540 Sure.
00:21:57.900 Very.
00:21:58.380 Huge.
00:21:58.820 So I think J.D. was super important to be in to help,
00:22:02.860 and he crushed it in the VP debates.
00:22:05.080 He did a very good job with media, going around doing it.
00:22:07.780 I thought I was a great pick.
00:22:09.800 for that election they needed him just like when they when he first pence i'm like why are you
00:22:15.040 picking pence and pence was a very christian and you know evangelical very much evangelical and you
00:22:19.980 know he's a good man i've spent time with the president he is a good man you would look at
00:22:24.600 so he got the older concerned christians are like this guy's crazy he's talking about grab him by
00:22:30.660 this no but he is not gonna grab him hard he grabs him soft because he's a you know pence was like
00:22:36.580 that guy he was a bootlicker is what it's called i don't know what you call it but jd
00:22:40.940 is we're going to find out what his ceiling is in my opinion his ceiling as of today is vp he has
00:22:48.460 not proven to to be that guy a part of it is because he's not been given big assignments i
00:22:53.820 don't know if his ceiling is that or not i think de santa still has a possibility of competing for
00:22:58.200 the next position you know markets change campaigns change you know wars change climate
00:23:03.260 changes a a different president's needed for different climates trust me wartime peacetime
00:23:07.720 it's a very different thing you're looking at that you're looking at yeah rubio's got the
00:23:11.440 no no rubio's next rubio's next on my list he's next on my list i think he is fully next on my
00:23:17.380 list i have a request this is last 28 days 69 and a half 30 this is the last 28 days of you that
