He doesn't get caught up in that. There's a lot, but when he steps back, I mean, one of, by the way, this is an interesting point I haven't seen anyone make, but I wonder what will happen to Europe now that the Trump administration has said to Syria that they're going to lift all the economic sanctions. The response to that in Syria was people on the streets

cheering, flying flags, and a million Syrian refugees are in Europe. And do some of them come home now? Because the funny thing is, you said about the Saudis, Megan, they know how to speak Trump's language. What did the former head of Al-Qaeda in Syria say to Trump?

Well, just like easy wars. I mean, we can beat the Greenlanders. I mean, that's pretty simple. But the thing is, Megan, is that I think what the difference is, is that this has been the kind of unwritten policy of America and Americans for a long time, but it's non-interventionist.
