1
00:00:00,767 --> 00:00:01,568
You took exception last week

2
00:00:01,635 --> 00:00:02,669
to the president threatening

3
00:00:02,736 --> 00:00:03,637
to wipe out

4
00:00:03,704 --> 00:00:05,939
an entire civilization in Iran.

5
00:00:06,006 --> 00:00:08,008
It was a newsworthy rebuke

6
00:00:08,075 --> 00:00:10,511
from a high ranking Republican.

7
00:00:10,577 --> 00:00:11,478
What did you think

8
00:00:11,545 --> 00:00:13,113
when you saw that threat?

9
00:00:13,180 --> 00:00:13,914
I guess I wouldn't

10
00:00:13,981 --> 00:00:14,715
call it a rebuke.

11
00:00:14,781 --> 00:00:16,016
I was asked a question.

12
00:00:16,083 --> 00:00:17,885
I gave an honest answer.

13
00:00:17,951 --> 00:00:19,620
We're not at war

14
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:20,754
with the Iranian people.

15
00:00:20,821 --> 00:00:22,089
In fact, we are trying

16
00:00:22,155 --> 00:00:22,856
to do everything we can

17
00:00:22,923 --> 00:00:24,691
to support them.

18
00:00:24,758 --> 00:00:26,560
We want to liberate

19
00:00:26,627 --> 00:00:27,461
the Iranian people

20
00:00:27,528 --> 00:00:28,095
not

21
00:00:28,161 --> 00:00:29,530
not impoverish them.

22
00:00:29,596 --> 00:00:30,831
So again, President Trump

23
00:00:30,898 --> 00:00:32,332
has a certain negotiating style.

24
00:00:32,399 --> 00:00:33,333
I mean, I for one

25
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:34,501
am hoping and praying

26
00:00:34,568 --> 00:00:35,269
it works.

27
00:00:35,335 --> 00:00:38,005
I mean, Frederica, just think

28
00:00:38,071 --> 00:00:38,972
of how if all

29
00:00:39,039 --> 00:00:40,040
these things are successful

30
00:00:40,107 --> 00:00:41,375
It looks like Venezuela

31
00:00:41,441 --> 00:00:43,110
is on the road to success.

32
00:00:43,177 --> 00:00:44,945
If we can tame Iran

33
00:00:45,012 --> 00:00:46,914
if we can remove that regime

34
00:00:46,980 --> 00:00:47,681
and get more

35
00:00:47,748 --> 00:00:48,749
responsible leadership in there

36
00:00:48,815 --> 00:00:49,850
who are going to be more

37
00:00:49,917 --> 00:00:51,451
interested in governing Iran

38
00:00:51,518 --> 00:00:53,187
for the benefit of its people

39
00:00:53,253 --> 00:00:54,988
as opposed to their ideology

40
00:00:55,055 --> 00:00:56,590
being a state sponsor of terror.

41
00:00:56,657 --> 00:00:57,991
I mean, just understand

42
00:00:58,058 --> 00:01:00,894
how positively that could reset

43
00:01:01,228 --> 00:01:02,129
global politics

44
00:01:02,196 --> 00:01:03,964
or the geopolitical situation

45
00:01:04,031 --> 00:01:05,732
throughout the world.

46
00:01:05,799 --> 00:01:07,868
If Cuba could reclaim

47
00:01:07,935 --> 00:01:09,002
if Cubans could reclaim

48
00:01:09,069 --> 00:01:10,404
their liberty and their freedom.

49
00:01:10,470 --> 00:01:12,105
I mean, these are

50
00:01:12,172 --> 00:01:13,073
Iran should be

51
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:14,708
incredibly successful

52
00:01:14,775 --> 00:01:15,843
and prosperous nation

53
00:01:15,909 --> 00:01:16,944
as should Venezuela

54
00:01:17,010 --> 00:01:18,278
as should Cuba.

55
00:01:18,345 --> 00:01:19,079
And it's only

56
00:01:19,146 --> 00:01:19,746
it's only through

57
00:01:19,813 --> 00:01:20,581
American leadership that

58
00:01:20,647 --> 00:01:22,983
those things can happen.
