He thinks it's a deal potentially with Ukraine or on Gaza.

Both are too controversial.

These are European liberals.

If he does a deal with the Russians on Ukraine, they'll never forgive him for it.

But if he actually flouts the will of Netanyahu, if he flouts the will of people like Mark Levin, if he does a better deal, a more impressive deal with the Iranians than Barack Obama did, that is the one thing that actually will get him the Nobel Peace Prize.

He's got the wrong nomination list right now.

He's got Vladimir Putin and the leadership of Pakistan.

These are not the people you want.

Look, I mean, people forget in August of 2024, you know, this was Brad's summer.

This was the ascendance of Kamala Harris.

There was an expectation that the Trump Vance ticket could lose.

And the endorsement of RFK Jr.

and Tulsi Gabbard was a crucial lifeline in getting Trump to win.

And I think if MAGA is going to be an enduring political movement, if it's going to have

an afterlife long after Trump's in office, you need to keep people in the coalition like the Kennedys, like the Gabbards.

And Gabbard's a representative of a lot of Americans, independent-minded Americans, ex-Democrats who came to vote for Donald Trump.

And not surprisingly, she has foreign policies that were critical of previous Republican administrations, like the Bush administration.

There's a lot of people, unfortunately, again, within Trump's cabinet who just want to return, people like Marco Rubio, I would submit, who just want to return to the hits.

They just want to return to Pompeoism or Mike Pence-ism or establishment Republicanism.

There's not the demographics for it, first of all, but second of all, it's demonstrably failed.
