"Anda bahkan tidak tahu berapa rata-rata orang Amerika membayar. Anda tidak tahu apa yang kami bayarkan dalam hal rudal yang menghantam sekolah Iran. Anda tidak tahu apa yang kami bayar dalam hal gas. Anda tidak tahu apa yang kami bayar dalam hal makanan. Anda 25 miliar. Jumlahnya benar-benar tidak mencukupi. Itu adalah ketidakmampuannya.

Transkrip
00:00How much did it cost American taxpayers in terms of the strike to the Iranian school where kids were killed?
00:05Do you have that number?
00:06And how much are you seeing in terms of, are you asking in terms of supplemental funding just for the
00:11Iran mission from this committee?
00:14If and when a supplemental is submitted, the majority of it would not just be for, would not be for
00:21Epic Fury.
00:21It would be munitions related to the entirety of what we want to get done.
00:26A number, what would you submit?
00:28It would be within the, on Iran, it would be less than $25 billion, but there's a lot more we
00:33would ask for beyond just Iran.
00:34You're saying it's $25 billion.
00:36Okay, I would just, if you come back, you want to revise those numbers because all the experts are disagreeing
00:41with you when it comes to today's dollars and damage, but you can revise it.
00:44How much did it cost American taxpayers in terms of the strike to the Iranian school where kids were killed?
00:50Do you have that number in terms of the missiles we used?
00:54As I've said, that unfortunate situation remains under investigation.
00:59You don't know how much it costs the taxpayer?
01:01But I wouldn't tie a cost to that, to anything.
01:03It's a reasonable question, no, sir?
01:05I mean, our taxpayer money was going there.
01:06Do you know how much it will cost Americans in terms of their increased cost in gas and food over
01:13the next year because of the Iran war?
01:17I would simply ask you what the cost is of an Iranian nuclear bomb.
01:20I'm going to give you that opportunity.
01:21I would simply ask you what the, you're playing gotcha questions about domestic things.
01:25I'm not.
01:25You're asking, you're saying it's a gotcha question to ask what it's going to be in terms of the increased
01:30cost in gas.
01:30Why won't you answer what it costs to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear bomb?
01:34I give you that, sir, but let me.
01:35What would it cost?
01:36What would you pay to ensure Iran doesn't get a nuclear bomb?
01:38Do you.
01:39What would you pay?
01:40I reclaim my time.
01:41Do you not know, you had no one do the analysis of what the increased cost of gas and food
01:45on the American people are going to be?
01:47What is the cost of Iran holding that straight at issue with nuclear weapons?
01:51It's $631 billion, which means it's an increase of $5,000 a year for American households.
01:59Now, let me give you this point.
02:01You're saying that your operation is preventing a nuclear Iran.
02:04Will you acknowledge that there is an economic cost to the American people for doing what you believe is necessary
02:12to make Iran denuclear?
02:14Will you acknowledge the economic cost?
02:16We have an incredible economic team that's managing this better than what the previous administration did to our economy.
02:23You acknowledge there's a cost.
02:31You don't even do the analysis on how much it's costing the American people.
02:37It's one thing if you said, OK, it costs the American people $5,000, but we think it's worth it.
02:42That's what we've done in World War II and other wars.
02:44Here's what it costs.
02:45You've got to pay for it.
02:46You don't even know what the average American is paying.
02:50You don't know what we paid in terms of the missiles that hit the Iranian school.
02:53You don't know what we're paying in terms of gas.
02:55You don't know what we're paying in terms of food.
02:57Your 25 billion number is totally off.
02:59It's the incompetence.
03:01It's the incompetence.
