Whats from biggest concern, how shes getting a more women on the front lines of Disaster Relief aid help reach out via Administrator Diane, chris, well ahead hello, im dana bash and washington where the state of our union is wishing all the moms out there. I havent itd be mothers day. This coming week. We could see the final stages of Donald TrumpsHush Money Trial and neighboring new jersey, trump vented his anger late saturday afternoon ahead of expected testimony from the star witness in the case, former trump fixer, Michael Cohen on the west coast, President Joe Biden is looking to capitalize on his opponents predicament, calling trump, quote, clearly unhinged during a closeddoor fundraiser, but biden faces growing political problems of his own after his stark new ultimatum, this week to israel in an interview on cnn vowing to block some us military aid to israel if it invades the gazan city of rafah. Israel seems undeterred, ordering 300,000 gazans outer rafah. It all leaves biden with Strain Support among democrats and a middle ground that seems to have left no one happy. Something trump tried to seize on at his rally crooked joes action is one of the worst betrayals of an american ally in the history of our country. I support israels right to win its war on terror. Is that okay . I dont know i dont know if thats good or bad politically. I dont care you gotta do whats right . Here with me now is potential trump Vice President ial pick, republican senator jd vance of ohio. Hes going to be joining former President Trump at an event in cincinnati this week on wednesday. Thank you so much for being here. Its nice to see you in person. I want to start with the mideast and President Biden announcing on wednesday that he would block some shipments of us weapons if israel invades rafah. Hes frustrated after months of telling the israeli Prime Minister to be more targeted. He doesnt think that netanyahu is changing course and the president believes that too many civilians have been killed with us weapons. Is that a fair concern well, first all dana, let me say happy mothers day. Thanks to you and all the moms watching. But to answer your question, i think there are two big problems with what the vitamins duration is doing. First of all, its a fundamentally incoherent policy on the one hand, theyre saying too many Palestinian Civilians its have been killed with the other hand, theyre depriving is the israelis of the precision guided weapons that actually cut down on civilian casualties. So if youre worried about palestinian casualties, the stated policy here actually doesnt make a ton of sense. And i think the bigger problem here, if we zoom out is look and i hate to say this, but america is not good at micromanaging wars in the middle east. Joe biden has been president for four years, but hes really presided over as a senator and a Vice President. Many of the biggest disasters weve had in Foreign Policy in the middle east over the last 40 years. And i think that our attitude visavis the israeli should be look, were not good at micromanaging middle eastern wars rayleighs our allies let them prosecutors war the way they see the argument that President Biden has made we understand and private and hes done it in public because that he is trying to get the israeli Prime Minister to learn the lessons of wars in the by the way, it was a republican who is president george w the way that the us responded and afghanistan. And of course, The War In Iraq to learn the lessons and he doesnt believe that the Prime Minister is doing so. I completely concede, by the way, was a republican president in iraq though with democratic buyin from people like joe biden. But i think to learn the lessons, not just iraq, its afghanistan of multiple conflicts. Look, weve not been good at this and thats been a bipartisan failure by the way, its one of the reasons why i think dots trump was a good Foreign Policy president. He departed from that wisdom. But to answer your question, dana, who looked at the fundamental problem here, is the israelis have a goal in mind. Hamas started a war by murdering a large number of israeli civilians. And now that theyre 80 defeated, theyre throwing up their hands and saying, uncle, now, yeah, palestinians million casualties is a real issue and our heart certainly goes out to them. We have to ask ourselves, why are palestinian civilian casualties so high . Its because hamas started the war and now they hide behind Palestinian Civilians. So if you want to learn the lessons, i think of the last 40 years, the most important thing is we have to defeat hamas as a viable military organization. Youre never going to defeat the ideology of hamas, but you can root out those commanders, those final military trained battalions. And i think we should empower the israelis to do it, that the final point here, dana, its very important. Our goal in the middle east should be to allow the israelis to get to some good place with the Saudi Arabians and other golf eric states there is no way that we can do that unless the israelis finish the job with hamas, if they cant even do that, the attitude and the middle east will be, you cant trust these guys. Theyre not pursuing their own National Security. So weve got to let them finish this job, but i think hopefully on the other end of it, get two new era in the middle east. I want to ask about something i think that donald trump said in on social media. He said, what biden is doing with respect to israel as disgraceful if any jewish person voted for joe biden, they should be ashamed of themselves. Hes totally abandon israel. You tweeted that donald trump was right about that. So i just wanted to be clear. You think that jewish people who vote but if for joe biden should be ashamed of themselves for what i think dana is that people should look at the record here and recognize that donald trump has actually been really good for the state of israel. We had peace and prosperity in our country and we had a very stalwart ally of the israelis. Now, joe biden is president , the israelis had been attacked youve got these terrible campus protests with a lot of antisemitic overtones all over our country. And you also have him trying to micromanage the israeli response to them being attacked. Do i think its reasonable to look at this situation and say that if youre a Jewish American who cares about the state of israel, who cares about these antisemitic riots . And say, you should be on the side of republicans in 2024 because they govern effectively on some of the issues that you care about. I think its a totally reasonable argument to make, and i think that Donald Trumps going to keep on making it historically, the notion of saying two jews you should put israel first and what happens in israel first, and not consider them american citizens first has been used as an antisemitic trope do you do recognize that there and perhaps that language isnt exactly on point when youre talking about something that is very, very sick. A tinderbox right now, we have to remember donald trump is very direct here and said he was right and he hasnt singled out Jewish Americans. He singled out a lot of people for voting for joe biden and suggest testing. Theyve got to wake up and elect him as president in 2024. So i dont think theres any effort to single out Jewish Americans and just on that particular question about tropes, i mean, look, we know that Jewish Americans and nonJewish Americans care about our ally, israel. We know that Jewish Americans and nonJewish Americans care a lot about these ridiculous protests i actually have a friend of mine whose brother was graduating from columbia, who had the Graduation Ceremony cancel. And thats a nonjewish person who cares a lot about these antisemitic protests. So i think the fact that donald trump is talking about jews in that particular context does not mean he doesnt think the same lessons apply to a whole host of american citizens. Yeah, because he did say that a jewish person who voted for joe biden should be ashamed of themselves. I want to move on. He said similar comments about a lot of different groups of people. Dana, i dont think anybody could look at the presidency in the conduct of donald trump and say, this is a person whos somehow antisemitic. And i think whether youre jewish or not, you should be looking at the record of joe biden enter with nick 20s, who is an avowed and dana, you should look at the record of joe biden and recognize that whether youre jewish are not his presidency has been a disaster for the american. I want to ask about what we saw this past week and its going to continue this week the trial in new york, Adult Film ActressStormy Daniels testified about her allegation of a sexual encounter with donald trump. Now, actor, the access Hollywood Tape in 2016, you tweeted, quote, fellow christians, everyone is watching us when we apologize for this man lord help us. Now youve since deleted that tweet. Do you still feel that way about Donald TrumpsSexual Industry Indiscretions . Well, first of all, donald trump is not on trial for sexual indiscretions. This is a sham trial where theyre saying his misdeeds is that he violated the law, that he committed a crime. You cant throw somebody in prison in the middle of a president ial election because you think that he did something bad . Ten years ago. So i think we have to separate these arguments from the actual criminal trial. Thats attempting to in my view, dana interfere in a president ial election. But look, my view on donald trump had been very clear on this is look, i was wrong about him i didnt think he was going to be good president data, and i was very, very proud to be proven wrong. Its one of the reasons why im working so hard to get them elected. I think the contrast here is really from joe biden, who delivered chaos in The World Stage Rising Cost Of Living here at home to donald trump, who delivered peace and prosperity to the American People and to the world thats a very, very simple contrast to make. And i think republicans just have to hammer that message home because weve got the winning horse here and weve got the winning message. And i just want to be clear, the the notion of what youre right, that hes not on trial for alleged sexual indiscretions. Its Something Else but do you think that he should be treated differently because he was a former president because he is running for president. And if he is convicted you still support him. Well, i dont think you should be treated differently at all, dana, but i certainly think he is being treated differently. The only thing that alvin bragg, the new york prosecutors team, thinks donald trump did wrong isnt he ran for president in 2024, and it looks to be on the cusp of victory that is the only thing that this is ultimately about. If you look at the underlying argument of the case, they cant even identify what it is that donald trump, did. They said he committed a Paperwork Violation in the service of a crime, but they wont even specify the crime that he allegedly committed. And i think that when you look at all of these attacks on donald trump, you have to, you have to be honest with yourself and say, this is not about law, and this is not about justice, this is about the fact that President Joe Biden has a failed record as commander in chief and leader this country, and the democrats cant talk about that. So what theyre doing is putting these trials out there and saying focus on this, not on the fact that the world is on fire, and the fact that you have gotten poor under the presidency of joe biden . Yeah, i a lot of things to unpack there. Were almost out of time. I just want to look forward 2024 this election that Election Year that were in, will you commit to accepting the results . Of this years election . Book, dana, i totally plan to accept the results of 2024. I think that donald trump will be the victory. And if its a free and fair election, dana, i think every republican will enthusiastically accept the results. And again, i think those results will show that donald trump has been elected president , didnt reelected president i think this question though, its interesting, dana, because we have to be willing as democrats did in 2000, as democrats have done in the past. And certainly as republicans did in 2020 is if you think there were problems, you have to be willing to pursue those problems and tried to prosecute the case. And certainly, if we have a free and fair election, ill accept the results even if joe biden wins. Sure. If its a free and fair election, i will accept the results standard, whoever wins, okay. Senator, thank you so much. Thanks to appreciate you. Come in coming up. Did President Bidens very public shift on israel in an interview . With our own erin burnett, make the issue even harder for him politically. Senator chris murphy is here live plus a headache in the 2024 campaign how rfk jr.
