00:00Rubio, Secretary of State, was there, gave a speech that had a lot of similar underpinnings to it,
00:05but they were applauding, and they thought it was great.
00:07So what happened with that? Why is that the outcome?
00:10Well, I heard somebody say that I was the bad cop so that Marco could be a good cop.
00:14I mean, he gave a great speech, but he drove home, I think, a very important point
00:18that the Europeans have largely forgotten, or at least had largely forgotten over the past year,
00:23is that the reason why the president or Marco or me talk about borders,
00:27the reason why we talk about them spending more on their own security,
00:31the reason that we talk about them more becoming a vibrant economy again,
00:35is that we want Europe to thrive and we want Europe to succeed.
00:38The problem that we have with Europe is not that we don't like Europe,
00:41even though you hear that from the European press.
00:43It's not that we don't respect our allies.
00:45It's that they are doing a lot of things to sabotage themselves.
00:49We would like that to stop. We would like them to be an ally in the true sense of the
00:53word.
