and american conservative union chairman matt schlapp and florida congressman ron desantis. i will start with you, congressman. are they rooting for north korea? speak it was interesting, you remember obama s hostage deals when they said that taliban five to get bowe bergdahl, who was a deserter, all those people were saying what a great thing that was. trump has already broughtt in on president at pressure, we got hostages back for giving up nothing. when the conditions aren t right, he got to make a decision. reagan was right when he walked off from gorbachev. this is not over and i think you will see more pressure brought to bear. i think we have a better chance of having success under trump than any president in the last 25 years. judge jeanine: jason, they talk about the fact that the president is being measured and he will get us into a nuclear war, as of the reality that he is very measured because if you just go through the timetable
