President Donald Trump appeared to nearly fall asleep multiple times during his Tuesday, Dec. 2, Cabinet meeting. The president, 79, sometimes squinted his eyes, and at least one time, fully closed them. Meanwhile, members of his Cabinet took turns delivering accounts of their success and expressing admiration for their boss. In one notable moment as Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick spoke, Trump appeared to completely close his eyes for a number of seconds before leaning forward to engage with Lutnick's remarks.
00:00But this war is going on, and the president is trying to end it, not because, listen, we've got a million things to focus on in the world as a country, but he's the only leader in the world that can help end it.
00:09And that's why, even as we speak to you now, Steve Woodcoff is in Moscow trying to find a way to end this war, to save lives of 8,000, 9,000 people, Mr. President, as you want to, are dying every week.
00:20More people are dying a week in that war than have died in the entirety of the U.S.'s involvement in Afghanistan or Iraq.
00:27Just think about that, how bloody and destructive it is.
00:30The president's taken on this issue of Sudan, personally, not send out deputies to do it.
00:35Again, far away from the United States because he's the only leader in the world that can bring it about to an end, not to mention all the other peace deals, very dangerous ones, like India and Pakistan or Cambodia and Thailand.
00:46And so on all these things, Mr. President, I think you deserve tremendous credit for the transformational aspect of our foreign policy.
00:52For the first time in probably four decades, the American foreign policy is driven by what is good for America and Americans, whether it makes it safer and stronger and more prosperous.
01:02If it is, he's for it. If it doesn't, he's against it. And that sort of clarity is transformation.
