Aaron Parnas

For me, it's more of like he has to recognize his faults, but he could also use his voice.

He's a former president.

I think Obama should be speaking up more than he is, even though he is speaking up a lot as well.

Like, I think former presidents now, it's their time to kind of come up and say, like, this isn't right.

George Bush should be speaking up if he doesn't like Trump, right?

Like, these presidents have power, even if people don't necessarily like them as people or what they did when they were in office.

Speak up and use your voice.

And I'm Aaron Parnas.

Yeah, I mean, I think this week was very different because I think now those around the administration, and especially those online and within MAGA World, they're kind of seeing deja vu of Iraq, of Afghanistan, of what the United States went through in the early 2000s and the war that Bush brought us into.

It's actually, this week is the 23rd anniversary of Bush announcing the war in Iraq.

And so I think what we're seeing now is...

At the beginning, Trump promised a quick war.

Then every day he would say something like, oh, I could finish this in a few days if I wanted to, or it's going to be a couple weeks.

We're now entering the first month, week four of this war.

We're spending billions of dollars.

I don't know any Republican who supported Doge who also now wants to give another $200 billion to the Pentagon of money that we don't necessarily have.

There are reports that the United States and Israel, like you were saying, are not on the same page in terms of what the end goal is.

Israel obviously wants regime change here.

Trump keeps saying that's maybe not what they want.

We haven't actually officially defined this as a war in Congress yet, I mean, on top of it all.
