Which is them, the Democrats' fault. They'll try and blame Republicans. It has nothing to do with us. It's the Democrats' fault. What I want to do is we spend hundreds of billions of dollars a year that go to insurance companies. I want that money to go to the people and let the people buy their own health care.

How does President Trump plan to reshape healthcare funding?

Unknown 0:18
And everybody loves it. It's become our issue. Before I do that, I'll meet with the insurance companies, just as I met with the drug companies, as you know. We're meeting with four other drug companies, Johnson & Johnson. But they've all agreed.

Okay, this is War Room. We're passing the baton over on RAV to John Solomon and Justin News. We're going to continue on the War Room channel here. We're going to continue the press conference. And Captain Fennell, Natalie Winters, will join us immediately after the president answers questions.

Most favorite nations. Nobody thought that was possible. I don't think any other president ever tried to get it because they never thought they could. But with respect to the insurance companies, I want to meet, there's essentially 14 of them, 10 big, but there's a total of 14 pretty much, oh, pretty big. And I want to meet with them and I want to say, I want you to cut your rates way down, way, way down. And maybe if they do that, we'll be able to not cut them out. We'll be able to continue to deal with them. which is probably a little easier process. I think the best process is pay the money directly to the people, let them buy their own healthcare. But I'm going to meet with them the first week back.
Unknown 1:29
I do it now, but they're trying to come up with a schedule. They want to meet badly, they've told me. But they want to come up with a schedule. I said, make it a good schedule. Your rates have to come way down. We're also going to meet with other insurance companies because under Biden, the insurance rates have gone through the roof. Auto insurance, home insurance. I mean, insurance companies are making far more than they're entitled to make. So we're going to be doing that. But just in the meantime, we'll be meeting with the insurance companies in the first week, the first few days back. in Washington because they're trying to come up with a proposal that will satisfy me. Thank you very much, everybody.
Unknown 2:08
Appreciate it. I hope you're going to enjoy the battleships. They're going to be beautiful. Thank you. And have a great Christmas if I don't speak to you. Thank you very much. Thank you very much.

Right there, the president of the United States, Secretary of War, Secretary of Navy Phelan, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, a massive new shipbuilding program just announced. And we're bringing in Captain Fennell. So, Captain, given that you're one of the world's leading experts in this and you've been a huge advocate for basically it was like a punch list of what Captain Jim Fennell has been arguing for on the warm of the last couple of years. Give us your assessment. First off, what was actually announced and how does that fit into kind of the architecture of how you see returning the United States to be a global naval power?
Captain Jim Fennell 3:03
Well, the specific announcement, Steve, was for this new battleship class, the Trump class, and the announcement that two ships would be built from this class in the next two and a half years and that these ships, these battleships, would be 100 times more capable of than our previous battleships that we had in World War II, the Iowa class, which you remember from your time in service. I still remember seeing an Iowa class battleship fire a full broadside. What will be different now is that they'll be much the same size as the old ones, maybe a little bit bigger. They'll have, as the president said, they're going to be made from steel, thick steel, so they're going to be survivable. He talked about sturdy and survivability.
Captain Jim Fennell 3:50
And then he talked about this 100 times more powerful. which means they're going to have a lot of vertical launch cell tubes. Our Arleigh Burke-class destroyers have 96 cells, so this would probably have hundreds of more cells to be able to launch these long-range anti-ship cruise missiles
