spontaneous decisions, doesn t care what repercussions are, not just for the poor kurds who stood by our side but for all of our foreign policy. it is outrageous. the fact that republicans are finally getting mad, great. now i need them to get mad about ukraine and russia and everything else. seems like as a candidate for president you and all of the candidates are in a bit of a conundrum. i heard the same thing from voters on the ground, they re not focused on impeachment and these things, they re focused on everyday problems you talked about. yet at the same time this thing is at a critical point. how do you break out, handle this moment where you know the focus is in one direction in washington, but voters in some ways are playing wait and see. when you look at 2018, they wanted to check and balance this guy, not just because they were worried what he would do economically or with foreign policy, they wanted a values check and balance, chuck. they know he is mean spirited,
face five finger legal bills. i want to focus on the president s foreign policy today. it s really confusing. it is clear mnuchin was sent out, carol, to do cleanup, reassure republicans. they don t want turkey to do that. it happened the same day, the united states couldn t use the word condemn with the europeans when it comes to what turkey did. the president sent more troops to saudi arabia. are you confused? no one has a sense of what policy is, whether getting out of endless wars in the middle east? even if you look at the president s twitter feed, it is all over the place, getting out of endless wars, not doing anything like that, we re not leaving, abandoning anybody, kurds have to stand for themselves, we re going to help them out. what reporting shows is behind the scenes there s some effort to get this contained. not just the political problem that he has with congress but
opponent. instead of talking to the president of the ukraine about russian invasion, he asks for dirt on an opponent. when i m out there in the midwestern states that we have to win, people are talking about a president that has not kept his promise, that includes trump voters. i don t want to lose sight of the fact, why i went to the michigan and wisconsin and pennsylvania where i know i can take this guy down in the midwest, specifically in minnesota, iowa, those states, there s a lot of dissatisfaction with what s going on. we can t forget that when we campaign, that this is about those states. let me ask you about the senate side a second. there s a lot of bipartisan concern about what s happening in turkey and what s happening to the kurds. is there anything that can put the toothpaste back in the tube or is it over? i wish there was. i don t think this idea, i was appalled. you know, he says i ll put on sanctions if you let isis
powers try to take advantage so you have those are what i call the five things. they are former empires where big empires, five centuries, ten centuries ago. china, iran. prussia, turkey, russia, their empire. we thought that they were to live f defeated forever. no, they come back. undemocratic authoritarian powers, if there is an imperialism to the imperialism, the worst, it is not the american imperialism, the russian one. it is imperialism, look at what happened to the poor kurds.
