I'm actually thinking Monica Crowley, who would be fantastic at this kind of job, just explaining, you know, the benefit to the American people of what he's battling around the world.
And the other thing is, I think he's forgetting to run the victory lap for Americans.
You know, I was just reading a book about the 200-year Jewish war against Rome.
And whenever the Roman Empire had a giant conquest, they would build a triumphal arch and have a promenade and a celebration, and they would show the booty that they brought back from that conquered area to the Roman people, and they would get the benefit, the political capital of that.
Well, I don't see that the president is doing that enough.
I'm not saying literally bring home the booty and parade it around, but...
I think that more language about we are, you know, respected again around the world.
We are the peacemakers of, you know, again, in the world.
We are first among equals.
We are, you know, America is has a burnished reputation again after, you
you know, a long time of being laughed at and mocked and humiliated.
I think that would go a long way.
You know, we are, we are a city on a hill.
I think people are, you know, elected him because they want to feel that again and they can feel it because of what he's doing.
It's huge.
And there's so many easy stories like Jared Kushner.
was saying in an interview, um, that, uh, you know, private business relationships brought about, or maybe it was his colleague Woodcoff brought about the, um, the investment in, in Gaza that is helped to bring about this piece.
And I think that what they did with bringing in kind of
carrot incentives economically instead of just old school diplomacy is brilliant.
It's genius.
