| 0:19.0 | This is America First and here's your host, Dr. Sebastian Gorka. |
| 0:24.0 | Do you think that General Patton was woke? I don't think so. What do you think Mike? |
| 0:31.0 | Mike, was he woke? I don't think so. I don't think he was too woke. He was the exact opposite. |
| 0:37.0 | You know what woke means? It means you're a loser. |
| 0:39.0 | That was President Trump in Alabama at the weekend at a record-breaking rally and we are honored to have my former boss with us here on our national radio show America First across the country. |
| 0:54.0 | President Trump, welcome back. |
| 0:56.0 | Thank you very much, Sebastian. |
| 0:59.0 | Mr. President, let's start at the beginning. How different was your approach to national security? |
| 1:05.0 | There was no woke as under the US military when you were Commander-in-Chief, talked to our millions of listens across the country about your plans for Afghanistan, the conditions based withdrawal and what we have witnessed, the disaster we've witnessed in the last three weeks. |
| 1:21.0 | Maybe the greatest most embarrassing disaster we've ever witnessed in our country. |
| 1:25.0 | The difference was almost, first of all, it was the opposite. It was the exact opposite. We knocked out ISIS. When I took in, when I took over, ISIS was all over the Middle East. We knocked out 100% of the ISIS caliphate. |
| 1:42.0 | I noticed now they call it ISIS-K, so you'll explain that. But we knocked out 100% of the ISIS caliphate. |
| 1:49.0 | We took out Al Baghdad, the leader of ISIS, and you know what else and who else we took out? We took out plenty. And we were in total control in terms of Kabul and in terms of Afghanistan. They weren't even close to us. |
| 2:04.0 | We were going to get people, because I believe in getting out 21 years is enough. And we were like a police force over there, and they've got to take care of themselves. |
| 2:12.0 | And as you know better than anybody, I'm predicting as soon as we leave, they would stop fighting. And they were fighting for a lot of money. They were among the highest paid soldiers in the world paid for by the American taxpayer. |
| 2:25.0 | So that's exactly what happened. What we were going to do is get our citizens out, take out other people who deserve to be taken out. |
| 2:33.0 | Then we're going to knock the hell out of the bases, but before we did that, we're going to take out all of our military equipment. I said down to the nails and the screws and the bolts, everything out nice and easily. And then we take out the soldiers and probably blow up the bases because why should we give them to somebody else to use? |
| 2:53.0 | So that was it. And a bargram. We were going to keep because bargram is near China, near Iran and also in Afghanistan. So it covered a lot of territory. So I would have kept that. And it's a great area for exactly what it represents. |
| 3:10.0 | So, you know, they spend billions and billions of dollars building it. That's the big air force base. So I think the biggest in the world actually. |
| 3:17.0 | So we would have kept that. Instead we fled like there was no reason for it. The soldiers come out last and the army, the military comes out last after the people and after all of the 83 billion dollars worth of the most highly sophisticated military equipment anywhere in the world. It is a disgrace. |
| 3:39.0 | What's taken place here and an embarrassment to our country. This is the greatest embarrassment in the history of our country. There's never been anything like that. And we had, I had meetings through telephone calls with Abdul. |
