electric, one of the fightercage jumped the cage to shakesa trump s hand and say hello, former president pointed at joe rogan and walked to him for a handshake and a brief chat.tr and trump thr threw jabs at his 2024 opponents, o desantis and joe biden. i m not a big fan of his, he is highly over righted. he wanted to cut social security thanked to raise the minimum age, one thingreme to remember when aomes politician comes out with an initial plan then they gohe into a corner because they are getting killed. we have a corrupt incompetent leader in biden, we can t be kind any more the gloves are off, the jar m has beenor open, high is compromised. then chris christie, had to get in on the act calling trump a three-time loser on fox news sunday, and bidennews is banking inflow of media s on going praise.th a lot of people watch, we re impressed, they think you have been a great president. but many of the people say, they are supporters of are yours. the next thing he s
digits, most of g.o.p. field remains in, he, express some frustration with that, but,t atthat goes back to the t central story, that story that was told out ofmi midterms florida was big success. so, in theory he has to ride that, chris christie, tom, ati great point, he is going after trump, but christie said this one lane, donald trump isne d the head of, you have to go through donaldno trump. he has been unapologetic about his efforts we ll see which way how thatt hi ends up. ron desantis was askedd about this, this morning on sunday morning futures. [ laughter ] maria they are narratives, the media does notme want me to be nominee, that is clear, because they know i ll beat biden, but morede importantly, they know i will actually deliver on
television stations it controlsd ls repearepeated those stories , which was the whole point.sayi watcngh. they are saying we should have shot down the ballooni woul the minute we sad w. i would use two words in answering these gop criticisms. they are premature and they aree political . this is why we voted foris hd joe biden, because imagine if t this had happened under donaldno trump, the way in whicwnhe the balloon was taken down allows us to retrieve the partss ,the balloons,t to see what wat actually in there. i m just glad that there was t o damage or threat to u.s.d aviation operationths that this operation took place was done st excellentfectiv way.atts from some of the statements fromte the republicans, especially iny the senate, have just beenan asinine. and these goind g out again, dow i m going to shoot down the balloon. oon.i m seriously they again, they just they make clowns of shemselves.
sout the balloon shut down moved the airspace over billings, montana, including the airport . and aey wers it moved east, commercial pilots saids they were afraid they were afg it. so it s funny to see the transportation secretary who s in charge of all of this, tell us who posed notell uo tho threat to transportation. but the bessalt is the, dismissal of anyone who hashe concerns. it s those republicans, again, with their moonsho sht, their shotguns, their extra chromosomes, thinking it s okay yo shoot down chinese sp balloons when every sophisticated person knows. tice donald trumpd himself knew thet best way to handle w chinese spy balloons. let them pass again, just like prompted trump trump he s got all of a sudden. so the question3 4 f1 washe di president ? well, someone asked him. rump no says he didn t. in fact, in an interview yesterday, trump said he had noe idea there wern e any chinese sy balloons over the unitedan w
states when he was president .as and he seemed to mean it, but it wasn t just trump. ump trump s former national security adviser said the same a thing. he said he never heard chine anything about chinese spy balloons ovens over r a countryt and you would think that he would effort then the general in charge of norat, glenn van herk, had the very same reaction. s m it s my responsibility to detect threats to north america. i will telsibilitythreets h amet detect those threats. so somehow nor add the most sophisticated supposedly monitoring system in the world, missedn the wo the those chineso balloons to three of them. and by the way, s dheo did the director of national intelligence, the man whose jobt it is to know america s secrets. he said hes. never heard ofsp chinese spy balloons over the country during the trump administration. balloons during here s former dni john radcliffe. do you remember duringration the trump administration when photographers on the ground and
