00:00History will judge the Iran war quite differently than conventional wisdom right now.
00:05We didn't start this war.
00:06Iran did 47 years ago, but President Trump is willing to do what no other president would.
00:12He did the tough right thing, not for politics, but for the safety and the security of the
00:17American people.
00:18That's leadership.
00:20He did not kick the can.
00:22He kicked their teeth in.
00:24My generation fought other Middle Eastern wars that dragged on for years, for decades.
00:31We lost thousands, thousands of Americans.
00:35I wear the bracelet of one of them on my left wrist every single day.
00:41It reminds me.
00:43And may I remind you, for perspective, we lost 60,000 Americans in Vietnam over 20 years.
00:52We lost 37,000 in Korea in just three years.
00:57That many humans are lost on the front lines of Ukraine and Russia every month.
01:03This epic fury has never been that, and it never will be.
01:08The media can just never admit the military success because they, you, hate the president
01:14more than you love our country or our troops.
01:18Then in our own hemisphere, we started at home from day one, President Trump made homeland
01:22security, national security.
01:24We sent American troops to lock down the southwest border and choked off the cartel pipeline of
01:28human smuggling, of drugs and death.
01:30And then we took the fight to them.
01:33The cartels thought they could just poison the American people and hide from justice.
01:37So we formed a counter cartel coalition, designated them terrorists and hunted them at sea.
01:42And now on land, more than 70 narco vessels sunk, 218 narco terrorists dead where they should
01:50be maritime smuggling down at least 65% and dropping even further.
01:55Thousands of American lives saved with every drug boat sunk and every shipment prevented.
02:02Indicted and wanted.
02:04Nicholas Maduro thought he was untouchable.
02:07He was not kidnapped.
02:10He was brought to justice by America's best victory in one night, victory in 48 minutes
02:15to be precise.
02:16And today he sits in front of an American judge in New York City, flawless success.
02:22Panama kicked China's Belt and Road initiative to the curb and we, along with them, control
02:27the canal.
02:28The message is simple.
02:29This is our hemisphere.
02:30Act accordingly.
02:31Our NATO allies, after decades of riding on the American taxpayer in Europe, committed
02:37to 5% of GDP for their own defense.
02:40Our allies are finally stepping up.
02:42Out with being a burden, in with burden sharing.
02:45Why?
02:46Because President Trump demanded it.
02:49America is the only country on earth and this military the only one that could successfully
02:53execute and lead all of these operations and efforts.
02:56It's sheer success, victories in both Venezuela and Iran, energy security in our hemisphere
03:03in a way none thought possible for a generation and no nuclear bomb for Iran ever.
03:10But of course security doesn't come free.
03:12Nobody was lost in the mission in Venezuela, but 18 Americans have given their lives in Operation
03:17Epic Fury.
03:18We know their names.
03:19I've been to Dover.
03:21We honor them every day.
03:22But their sacrifice only stiffens our resolve.
03:26As it happens, tomorrow is Veterans Day.
03:29This year the operators of Absolute Resolve and the warriors of Epic Fury will mark it
03:33for the first time.
03:34They stand shoulder to shoulder with the pilots of Midnight Hammer and the sailors of Rough
03:38Rider who went before them.
03:40They answered the call.
03:41They executed.
03:42They won.
03:44And on the eve of Veterans Day, these resolutions tell every one of them that their service was
03:51a crime.
03:52Their service was not a crime.
03:55These are heroes.
03:55And no politician in Washington will tell them otherwise while I hold this office.
04:00If you're not a crime and aola there and step for the northern edge of the sea-yang
04:00fella coming down.
04:00We'll do a hell of it again.
04:00This is in Mor Bauhaus.
04:01Click the car.
