And this is the reason that despite the fact they're in opposition, and as Megan, you know this very well, is that when you're in opposition network and opposition magazine, newspaper, whatever, you tend to have circulation and viewership numbers that go through the roof when you're in opposition. Theirs have cratered. And the reason is, is that people might not like this

You know, people might not support the way Donald Trump handled this and J.D. Vance handled this. But I don't think that the the instinct is to say they are under the control of the Kremlin. I don't. That's not why. And it's actually a pretty embarrassing and juvenile way of thinking of it at this point after it's been thoroughly researched and debunked. But there are other reasons.

that people can make, in my opinion, a desperately wrong call vis-a-vis Ukraine. And I don't think the only explanation for that is the man must be either a fascist or a Russian stooge. That is clearly our answer.

I think on that point, there's a language issue and a big language issue. I mean, Zelensky is a not a great English speaker. And what he was trying to convey in that moment where Donald Trump lost it with him is that Trump had previously said, you know, I watched all 45 minutes of it, had said the the ocean between us. And that had come up two more times.

And Zelensky brings it up that last time that kind of sets Trump off. And what I took him to be saying, and this is a kind of a boring thing that people have said for years, is he's trying to express that if we allow the Russians to do this, they'll be emboldened and that will come to other countries, including America. The ocean won't protect you. And I think that that was a more benign thing

than maybe Trump read it. And I've rewatched it a bunch of times. And every time I rewatch it, I realize the clumsiness. I mean, you notice right afterwards, he goes on Brett Baier's show. In about three or four pretty basic words, he has to consult with the translator off set. who yells what the words are. And he said, okay, okay. And he continues his answer.
