| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there, internet people it spell again. So today, we're going to talk about |
| 0:09.0 | Trump running out of time, while the Senate runs out of patience. As if Trump didn't have |
| 0:15.4 | enough problems with his ever spiraling and increasingly unpopular move on Iran that has not produced the results he |
| 0:22.8 | expected. He's running into new problems. Republicans in the Senate have so far resisted attempts |
| 0:30.7 | to curtail Trump's conflict. It seems like they're hoping against hope that somehow Trump |
| 0:37.1 | can pull something out of this. |
| 0:39.0 | He and the Republican Party can claim his victory. |
| 0:42.9 | So far, all the elective war has done is replace a few figures in the government |
| 0:48.4 | with people who are normally more hard lying. |
| 0:52.6 | Turned the protester movement that might have started a civil war |
| 0:56.1 | and was supportive of the U.S. against it, and increase Iran's strategic value, while simultaneously |
| 1:04.4 | turning our allies even more against us. Even Senate Majority Leader Thune, who has helped to stop war powers resolutions and allowed Trump |
| 1:14.7 | to keep his war going, has said the military needs a quote, plan for how to wind this down, |
| 1:21.9 | how to get an outcome. Senator, oh sweet child of mine, the military doesn't get to do that. They're tools of policy. You're the policymaker. |
| 1:35.4 | Sometimes, Congress gets so tense, but they can't speed up the time. But, you know, there's one more thing to consider. |
| 1:47.8 | Soon, Trump's 60-day window for unilateral action comes to a close, and congressional Republicans, who have so far been |
| 1:54.3 | completely shirking their constitutional responsibilities, will be forced to act, or admit this was a horrible idea and wind it down |
| 2:03.9 | themselves. At the end of the 60-day window, Congress needs to either pass an authorization |
| 2:10.4 | for the use of military force, which is what passes for a declaration of war these days, |
| 2:16.9 | or Trump has 30 days to wind down |
| 2:19.2 | his war. The Senate knows that if they don't give Trump a war authorization, that it's an admission |
| 2:26.3 | that Trump made a huge error, and the mission failed. See, Iran knows U.S. law as well. |
