make. it s important in this movement its protests, many of these are led by women and girls. this is quite remarkable in the span of history it s quite remarkable. i wouldn t bet against them. so karim, we saw extraordinary courage in the context of all of this at the world cup last week with the iranian men s team not singing the anthem. we heard the leader say this, calling for revolutionary reconstruction of the country s cultural system. so he s seeing this, he s hearing this. what does that mean exactly? is that just sort of we re going to change the name of the morality police? yeah, i mean, they are not going to change who they are. this is a system which is incapable of changing, and one of the lessons that ayatollah ha hamini learned from the collapse of the soviet union, it collapsed when gorbachev tried
flag. and i want it to work, obviously. i m just saying, comparing us to china or comparing us to russia as far as the decisions that people make or what motivates people to get up in the morning and work hard, it s not a close call. if you re an entrepreneur, and you see what happens to the best of the best entrepreneurs in china, you re saying you could be in a black jail. you could be disappeared. it s not a question of not making money, it s a question of knowing the wrong people and ending up in a very, very scary place. so, yeah, i wouldn t bet against the u.s. by the way, to bring it back to our twitter blue check comment and tesla and everything else. the fact that elon musk has such a huge business in china, to me, and you start thinking about what that up to square is supposed to look like.
concurred earth actually belongs to russia. from my perspective, the battle for kherson is the battle to expel the russians from their sacred soil. we ought to be doing all we can to support them, not shading in the face of bluster from particularly a low-level official turncoat, former ukrainian who now bends to knee to vladimir putin in the city of kherson. look, i wouldn t bet against the ukrainians taking kherson back. and, you know, it s just the name of a city to most americans. it s the key, in many ways to what putin wanted here, which was to create a land bridge from russia, down to crimea. kherson is effectively the key to accomplished that. if the ukrainians take it back, and i think they will, it will be a significant blow to putin, both militarily and psychological.
surprising thing to. donald trump said something i can get behind. remember i was going to say to, use an expression, we have to keep our it s not, i mean, for some reason, it s just not great anymore. make america guy again. that some aga saying i can t support. they re very true time, backed almost on that i can agree with x president, but i think he s finally understanding the american people. you know what, maybe it s a great strategy for him. some say they ll vote for trump if he keeps his promise to keep the country gear. i wouldn t bet on him paying now for a different kind of court, tennis great robert federal played his last great match on friday. but the tennis world, it was a very difficult job. i look at that. those are just i finished the notebook level two years. i wish i could give them both
and january 6th and trump s unhelpful interventions, this is an unusual environment and i think we have to talk about this midterm with a certain degree of humility because nobody is quite sure how this plays out. this won t be a traditional midterm referendum on the party in power. it may become more of a choice election. we ll see. i wouldn t bet against history but you ll see a rather slim republican majority in the house. the democratic losses will be mitigated over the dobbs decision and i think trump s unhelpful interventions we never had a former president so active and midterm. this is not anything republicans wanted. i hear people this is unscientific. i hear people talking about the border, right? about immigration i should say. and also really about democracy and more so than the economy than before. usually it s the economy. look, we re having two elections. i talked to pollsters.
