I think what it shows us how much the left and so many people in the media have such a disdain for the millions of americans voted for president trump. my question to democrats and also candidates like kamala harris and cory booker who are so quick to believe the story, how are you supposed to flip the 22 counties in wisconsin that went from obama trump? the counties in iowa that went from obama trump? when you loathes and have celeste don t like such disdain for those voters. jon: i will agree with you with the covington kids. there s a difference between these two cases. with the covington kids, people did jump to conclusions because they didn t have the evidence there. as opposed to the situation were somebody reported, said it did happen. there are two different situations. dagen: i just broadly said, we have lost the ability to just shut up.

Hopelessly demoralized. they said hey guys, we have a budget. no germans signed up. that s only part of the problem. the larger problem is that the germans think celeste don t feel obligated to defend themselves and the president simply said, look, why should the american taxpayer defend you if you are not willing to defend yourself? there is this thing called article three in the nato treaty that says each country can build adequate defenses for itself. they are not doing it. the polls are right and they have asked repeatedly for the last several years, where is the german army? because defense of europe is frankly possible frankly possible. brian: when the ball fell, they seemed more dedicated to nato than the old western nations, why is that? that s an easy question and there is an easy answer. if anyone in the world who has lived under russian app occupation including germans who live in the former territory of ....
