This was somebody there are people who were skeptical about donald trump from the very beginning. This was Somebody Playing Ball with donald trump and was a supporter and maybe even going to be his Vice President ial candidate. So the fact that hes saying these kinds of things shows that he gave him a fair hearing, was willing to give him a try, and its become pretty clear that this is a highly problematic president. Part of the thing that is worrying to me is were starting to see everything through the prism of heres another twitter scandal, heres another bit of the crazy. How crazy. Youre talking about somebody who has more access to information about threats to america than almost any human being on earth, Senator Corker, saying hes afraid of world war iii, to the paper of record for the country. That should be a full stop, all traffic comes to a halt moment. Because this is a cry for help for the country. And yet but it doesnt come until after donald trump personally insults him on
Very well in politics. He reached the highest peak. He was the president of the United States. But we must remember as has been pointed out in this statement that was released he was a texing otexas oil pioneer. He was a very successful businessman. He really gave that up to serve his country in another way outside of the military. Absolutely. There is an expression, you see this at his president ial library, i mean his office, his personal motto, he has two of them. One was faith, family and friends. And the second was to your point, any definition of a successful life must include service to others. So while a lot of people think of him as being raised in
grinwhich, and a new england born and bred welltodo family, he did go out and make his fortune, and he was pretty humble once he started out. Once he made money, he turned back to what he thought was most important, which was Public Service. Lets go onto talk about as well, so he became the 41st president of the United States, survi
security, if i have to have it with the secret service, i ve got the best there is and we will continue to be careful. the united states retaliated with a missile attack against iraq s intelligence headquarters. the man behind the plot would not be captured for another decade, and the second president bush ordered a u.s. invasion of iraq. ladies and gentlemen, we got him. at home president bush was hammered by critics for compromising with congress on tax increases and breaking his no new taxes promises. well, it was a mistake to go along with a democratic tax increase. and i admit it. in a three-way battle with bill clinton and ross pero, he lost. at his son s request he also briefly reentered the public
kgb and this and that. putin is fine. he s fine. we re all fine. we re people. will i be prepared. totally prepared. i ve been preparing for this stuff my whole life. unlike most of the thing donald trump said, that last bit is true. donald trump has been preparing for this moment for a very ronald reagan long timvery long time. back in the 1980s. trump sold himself in the press as the man who could strike a nuclear deal with the soviets. the u.s. never took him up on the offer, of course. he did meet with soviet leader in july 1987 to discuss what else real estate. fun fact, the other guy on that with trump and first wife was ross pero. he took out full ads.
the last couple days haven t helped. those are actually fairly short-term implications. i think the long-term implications are is this the new normal? will the next president be a celebrity who attacks people on twitter? donald trump didn t completely come out of nowhere. we ve had a degradation over time. and even things like norms violation of norms, like ross pero announcing on a tv show he is going to run for president. not today not shocking, but will this begin something very dark in the future? i m not willing to cut kellyanne the slack you re cutting her. i don t think because you work in the white house it gives you a right to come out and say up is down, down is up. that s what she s doing. it s this complete alice in wonderland insanity. where she s just saying things that aren t true. why is this okay? this idea that somehow bob corker is the one that s problematic i don t think that s what scott was saying or i was saying.
