And I'm willing to bet he didn't read the one in the second term.
He doesn't do policy the way we normally understand that that people have described him as transactional.
And that's that's a fair approximation.
Everything is a new idea, a new possibility.
He can change his mind from the morning to the afternoon.
And so the chaos is sort of his operating style.
I do think that affects how his advisers.
uh react to him where where it's there's a real feeling he wanted to be surrounded in the second term by yes men and yes women and and i think that's pretty much what he's got on the eminence point uh i don't i don't think uh based on what i know that iran was at the point of having a nuclear weapon but i don't think that is a prerequisite i don't think you're required to put your
country at risk when it's necessary and appropriate to take preventative action beforehand.
But, you know, Trump was trying to dramatize the reason to go in.
And as usual, he exaggerated.
You know, she obviously had two choices.
She could either appeal to the one person audience that matters, which is Trump, or she could show herself to be incompetent.
And I think she achieved the latter.
Whether she satisfied Trump, I don't know.
And certainly the others on the panel tried to avoid the question, except for Ratcliffe, who just agreed with what Trump said.
So he's probably the safest of all of them.
I don't think Tulsi Gabbard is going to last long for a number of reasons.
I'm surprised, really, she's still there.
Well, she may have better sources inside the Trump administration than I do.
