MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

President Trump saw Iran at its weakest moment, took an action to ensure in a way that only the United States of America could do with our Israeli partners.

And yet they still haven't given up their nuclear weapons.

was was brought one of the questions we've done if i could get to it conventional shield with their ambitions and guess what north korea has nuclear weapons now because we all get this right pd pete you understand donald trump exchanged love letters with kim jong-un and then allowed kim jong-un to use those conventional shield

to get nuclear weapons, and now it's being reported some places, although it's not really getting any significant national attention, that North Korea is basically producing, what is it, like 10 warheads a month or something, and they're going to have more nuclear warheads than like any other country.

other than like the u.s china and russia very soon so like north korea not just has nuclear weapons now they have more nuclear weapons than just about any country right now and on a weekly basis north korea is doing ballistic and cruise missile tests and it's just like whatever is kim jong-un he's he's trump's guy he can do that right he could do it

how about this data point ben north korea's nuclear arsenal now is big enough to possibly overwhelm the ground-based missile defenses the u.s spent billions developing over the past 30 years so while trump has been doing all this while he was exchanging love letters

North Korea was building up their nuclear arsenal to a point where the United States cannot even defend against it if they so chose to use it.

And just think about the lesson also of Trump's strategy here in Iran and going back to Trump ripping up the nuclear deal that Obama did.

The MeidasTouch Podcast
MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

Because when you had that deal in place, there is a deal amongst countries where you say, we're going to work this out.

The MeidasTouch Podcast
MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

Don't build these weapons and we won't do X, Y, Z. And when you violate the terms of that deal, all you do is you encourage all these other countries in the area to say, oh, we can never make a deal like that.

MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

First off, they're never going to respect it.

MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

Second off, they think they're going to just be able to bomb us when we're defenseless.

The MeidasTouch Podcast
MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

So instead of making a deal, what we have to do is ramp up our productions of our nuclear arsenal right now, because that's the only way that we could possibly deter an attack from the United States or any of these other countries.

MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

We need to be so big and so scary that they don't want to mess with us.

MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

you don't see the united states bombing russia you don't see russia bombing the united states if we build up our nuclear arsenal we will be untouchable because they're not going to want to get into a spat with us and i think that is the psychology kind of behind it and what donald trump has imbued in so many of these countries across the world right now where instead of

actually disarming nuclear weapons and denuclearization, which has been such a major thing over the past few decades.

The MeidasTouch Podcast
MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

Donald Trump has actually encouraged countries all over the world to increase their nuclear arsenal and make it so we're in possibly one of the most dangerous situations that we have ever been in as a planet right now.

The MeidasTouch Podcast
MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

It's all because of Donald Trump.

MeidasTouch Full Podcast - 5/1/26

And you notice when Hegseth says they have these nuclear ambitions, that's such an open-ended thing to say about anybody because there's nothing to it.

Ambitions, they want it.
