So the idea of U.S. foreign policy is that U.S. foreign policy should one way or another benefit the United States of America. It should be good for American prosperity, security. It should be good for international security, which is you know, in a more distanced way, but it's still good for us.

The idea that American foreign policy would be conducted to benefit the Trump family isn't something that we've had in America before. We could probably find some examples of corruption in foreign policy and people who made decisions that were good for business partners or something like that, but I don't think we've ever had a version of it that's so blatant and so open.

The idea that the Trump children would be openly seeking to benefit from their father's decisions, the idea that relationships between the United States and whether it's Saudi Arabia or Turkey or India or anywhere else would be shaped in order to benefit a particular investment. This level of corruption is brand new. It's not something we've had before.

It's also, once again, something that, you know, the effects of it are going to be felt immediately by ordinary Americans. This is maybe another maybe this is another piece of bad news, which is that people, you know, you saw a version of this happen in Poland. You know, when the when the government begins to do things that are in violation of the rule of law of the Constitution,

but they don't seem to affect ordinary people and people don't see it or feel it themselves, there isn't necessarily the reaction and the outrage that you would expect.

And we are going to discover in a really big way, I think, that most people don't care about this stuff. And that will be an unhappy discovery. But yeah, it's new. It's different. It's a different level of corruption.
