| 0:00.0 | The Iran War is a huge opportunity for Democrats and independence, but you have to see it. |
| 0:08.2 | And it's not as obvious as the Democrats are making it right now. |
| 0:13.4 | It's not Trump sucks, this all sucks. |
| 0:16.4 | Why? |
| 0:17.5 | You're missing two things. |
| 0:19.1 | One, you're missing the high ground of fighting terror, |
| 0:25.2 | fighting this, fighting that. |
| 0:26.5 | There's no reason to cede that ground to Trump, |
| 0:30.0 | that he's right about the regime, and you're wrong about the regime. |
| 0:33.9 | You're not wrong about the regime. |
| 0:35.0 | You're wrong about what he did to combat the regime. Because right now, the regime is in control. The regime is in control of the straight, and they're in the control of this negotiation. I mean, as I'm speaking to you right now, as I'm recording this, they just came out with a list of, yeah, we're not going to do this, we're not going to do that, we're not going to do this, it's not really bilateral, and we don't like what Israel did, and we don't like that this is in and there. I mean, do they sound like someone who's on their back foot who are desperate to make a deal? Why? These people are religious zealots, but they're not stupid. Now, you could argue what they believe is stupid, but they're very savvy |
| 1:14.4 | and they're very good at the same thing that the American president is good at. Lying, |
| 1:22.3 | defying norms, and denying realities. Okay? |
| 1:28.6 | Look, let's be honest. |
| 1:30.3 | Right now, we're in a position where you don't know |
| 1:31.9 | who's more trustworthy |
| 1:34.0 | on what's happening here. |
| 1:36.6 | A bunch of zealots |
| 1:37.8 | or the American president. |
| 1:40.6 | I mean, let's be honest. |
| 1:41.8 | I'm not saying that the American president |
| 1:43.6 | is a terrorist. I'm not saying that they're better than him. I mean, that is what you have going for you, is the idea that if you question what's happening in Iran, you are anti-American, you hate the troops, you want America to lose. Really? That is so weak, so pathetic that there's opportunity in this. |
