00:00There's some prominent Republicans who've said they want you to take over the Iran negotiations,
00:04they trust you, they think that you will prioritize Israel's interests,
00:08and they're attacking Vice President Vance.
00:10Who are these prominent Republicans?
00:12Senator Xi, The Wall Street Journal, Opinion Page.
00:15Well, that's not a Republican, that's a newspaper.
00:18You're a troublemaker of these questions.
00:20I think you know it leans right in the center.
00:21No, no, look, guys, listen, here's the bottom.
00:23You know who the lead negotiator is?
00:25His name is Donald J. Trump, the President of the United States.
00:27That's who dictates our policy.
00:29He has a team of people that work together on this.
00:31We all have a role to play, depending on what the topic is.
00:33We have very good negotiators in Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner.
00:37We have the Vice President of the United States, which is the second highest ranking official,
00:40which tells you how the importance to be given this file.
00:42Obviously, I have a role to play.
00:45Department of War has had a role to play.
00:47That's how we approach it.
00:48This doesn't, I mean, it's a combined effort, and it always should be.
00:51Do you wish people didn't endorse you to take over the talks yourself?
00:55I mean, you're telling me about that, but that's not how our system works.
00:57That's not how this administration works.
00:59It starts at the top.
01:00The President is in charge, and he has a team of people that provide counsel and provide advice,
01:05but ultimately whose job it is to execute on the President's directive.
