Well, howdy there, Internet people, it's Bell again. So today, we're going to talk about

0:07.4

Rubio, Trump, leadership, and efficiency. Trump is tasking Secretary of State Rubio with more

0:15.4

and more positions. He's already Secretary of State, U.S. Archivist, head of U.S.Aid, and is now on his way to being

0:23.9

national security advisor.

0:26.6

Now, most are reading this as Trump not being willing to trust most people, and for some reason,

0:32.9

Rubio has that trust.

0:34.9

But others are taking it as a sign of efficiency. The reasoning is that most of

administration will start to realize that U.S. aid is an

1:30.8

integral part of American power abroad. And unless its actual goal is to irreparably weaken the U.S.,

1:38.6

it'll come back. When it does, and the Secretary of State is talking to the leadership in the country of

1:45.8

Donovia, and he talks about how much the U.S. would love to help with an issue. He suddenly

1:52.6

finds himself in trouble. Now Rubio doesn't really mean the U.S. will help and certainly

1:59.0

isn't committing the U.S. to help with whatever the issue is.

2:03.1

It's just normal diplomatic language. But then, the leadership of Donovia asks for a timeline

2:09.7

of when that help will arrive. Rubio can't delay and say he's got to talk to the other agency head.
