00:00Here with more reaction is Missouri Senator Eric Schmidt.
00:03By the way, maybe the best baseball, congressional baseball game catch in the history of the game.
00:08Congratulations. Great job.
00:10Let's get your take on all of this through the prism of they will never in a five, eight month
00:21period of time, year or two, have any odds of ever getting a nuclear weapon.
00:26The president's number one priority.
00:28The president telling me directly, telling the American people directly, he will rain hell down on them if they try.
00:36So at that point in time, what is the downside in giving this an opportunity?
00:42There isn't. And I think this, again, dealing from a position of strength and clarity.
00:47The president of the United States, President Trump, was very clear from the get go what the mission here was,
00:51which is to ensure that Iran would never have a nuclear weapon.
00:54They have no ability to do that. And they're signing on the dotted line now, Sean, for the first time
00:59that they're not going to do that.
01:01And we don't need to trust them. We just need to verify that. Right.
01:04So effectively, President knocked out their military capability.
01:08Their Navy's at the bottom of the sea. They have no air defense.
01:11Their nuclear program is in shambles. It's nowhere near ever being started up again.
01:15And we can always go back and mow the lawn if necessary, because we've got eyes on it.
01:20So the president's provided now, through all of that action, space for diplomacy that has always been his North Star.
01:26You know that in any situation. And he's got it right now.
01:29So there's always more things to do. We need to make sure, obviously, we're verifying all of this.
01:33But the president's pulled off something here that most experts six months ago wouldn't have thought were possible.
01:39And I think it's good for the American people.
01:41You know, it's it's really insane.
01:44After all, Donald Trump has done beating the caliphate, Soleimani, Baghdadi, Midnight Hammer, Epic Fury.
01:51I don't know why people would doubt for a second that he means what he says, that he has no
01:56problem going back in and and finishing it.
01:59What I was told internally is the Iranians, even even the people that have been negotiating with our side after
02:07he hit him hard twice last week and then threatened to hit him harder the next night and threatened maybe
02:12to take Carg Island.
02:14They were begging to just sign any dotted line and get this moving forward.
02:18That apparently was a sore point for them.
02:22Well, they're they're at their weakest point in 50 years.
02:24I mean, that's the truth. And anything that's going to happen here now is performance based.
02:29You want to talk about this compared to Obama's disastrous deal where everything was front loaded and kind of created
02:34a path to a nuclear weapon.
02:36This is just the opposite.
02:38You've got the the master dealmaker here who used the leverage that he has, who still has that leverage as
02:44president moving forward to make sure that they're not going to secure a nuclear weapon.
02:48That has been the goal all along.
02:49And so while the Democrats, I hear him talking about it on Capitol Hill today, we're really rooting for America
02:55to lose.
02:56That's the truth. We're rooting for America to win here.
02:59The president's been very successful in fulfilling his promise that they're not going to get a nuclear weapon.
03:04It will be incredibly destabilizing, not just for the region, but for the world if that happened.
03:08And now the president has a memorandum of understanding that's going to continue to be negotiated to make sure it
03:13doesn't happen.
