policy beyond those borders, and so i think when you re leading with purpose and conviction, good things happen, hey, let s recognize the golan heights, israeli sovereignty, we re on a roll, get this done, absolutely. mark: so he recognizes jerusalem as the capital of israel. he moves the embassy like you said he would, he kills the iran deal which is a disastrous deal, like he said he would, and the left is attacking him for not only doing what he said, but many of them actually voted to move the embassy, schumer and others, and when it comes to the iran deal, the left doesn t know exactly what s in the iran deal, but they back it regardless. what do you make of what the president did? he is not fulfilling his own campaign promises but the campaign promises of presidents in the past, and most importantly the right thing to do, because as ron just said, it is israel s capital. and we are standing strong shoulder to shoulder with our nation s if not our nation s
north korea. in the end, who wins out here? china? i think that china will, i think everybody ends up winning out if we re successful here. south korea will be stronger, japan, the united states, that s one of the great things about this entire conversation and all the prospects that are possible right now. nothing is certain. and i think that for china specifically it s a complex situation, but we haven t really stood up for ourselves as a nation in pushing back on all of the complexities of that relationship. so president trump wants to he is showing an ability to look multidimensionally at the relationship with china. we understand there isn t a good option that doesn t involve china so working with them on north korea, but at the same time, we re trying to fix a trade imbalance. we re pushing back on patent infringement and other ways the products may be coming to market where ideas are stolen
