But again, if we get that latter situation, which I think is probably like a 75% possibility, actually, if we get that,

and then President Trump walks away.

I think that's a win for the United States.

I think it's a win for the world.

And even if he doesn't get the political credit he deserves for it, he will get that credit, or he should, via history if the regime ends up falling a year or two years from now.

Is that, is that?

Well, no, I don't think it's, I don't think it's, so this is what the thing, I think that what, what Trump is doing is the thing that nobody has recognized in American politics for literally decades.

He is doing a politically brave thing.

I know that we're not allowed to talk about brave things right now, but this is a politically brave thing because what he is doing is he is saying, listen, even if it costs me at the ballot box, even if my party doesn't do as well, if I get this threat,

for the foreseeable future, that is worth a few losses.

And to me, that makes it more brave, actually, because here's the problem that I have with this sort of logic, Michael.

There is literally no war that you can fight short of a full-scale regime change war

Short of that, there is no war that you can fight that resonates to the American public as a victory, which means that you end up in a position where you are gradually ceding territory to literally every enemy because we're not going to regime change China.

We're not going to regime change Russia.

We're not even regime changing really Venezuela, right?

We kind of regime behavior changed Venezuela.

And so if the idea here

is that the only way to win a victory is to win a full scale victory.

The result of that will be a breaking of the American hegemony over the rest of the world in the name of political gain.

I think President Trump is actually fighting back against that.
