    Ukraine so important uh for Europe and
  • 00:03:50
    so important for the United Kingdom so
  • 00:03:51
    it's it's worth noting here again like
  • 00:03:54
    this isn't just a matter of disagreeing
  • 00:03:55
    with American policy which is something
  • 00:03:57
    that's happened many many times it's
  • 00:04:00
    immediately after zilinski and his fight
  • 00:04:02

  • 00:04:13
    be recorded and remembered in history
  • 00:04:16
    the at some point somebody's going to
  • 00:04:18

  • 00:04:20

    name and people will refer to it by that
  • 00:04:33
    name did you cover the interview itself
  • 00:04:35
    yep the whole thing Jesus man it's a
  • 00:04:38
    whole new
  • 00:04:41
    world Germany's Next leader Fredick Mays
  • 00:04:45
    is calling for a discussion on nuclear
  • 00:04:47
    sharing with France and Britain the only
  • 00:04:50
    nuclear powers in Western Europe Mees
  • 00:04:53
    has argu that the US strategy is
  • 00:04:55
    Shifting under Donald Trump and
  • 00:04:57
    therefore Europe needs greater defense
  • 00:05:00
    Independence France however has rejected
  • 00:05:02
    the idea France's defense minister
  • 00:05:05
    Sebastian L I thought I thought mcon
  • 00:05:07
    said he was considering it is this more
  • 00:05:09
    recent information or is this outdated
  • 00:05:12
    information says that France's nuclear
  • 00:05:15
    deterence is French and will remain
  • 00:05:18
    French the president alone decides when
  • 00:05:22
    to use it and there will be no formal
  • 00:05:24
    guarantees for European
  • 00:05:27
    Partners talking about Britain now
  • 00:05:30
    Britain's nuclear weapons fall under
  • 00:05:31
    NATO's umbrella providing some
  • 00:05:33
    protection to Europe however experts say
  • 00:05:36
    the UK's Arsenal relies heavily on us
  • 00:05:39
    missiles and Warheads raising not for
  • 00:05:42
    long man not for
  • 00:05:47
    long first of all Canada has been there
  • 00:05:51
    for Ukraine uh from day one indeed from
  • 00:05:54
    uh before day one as uh in 2015 uh we
  • 00:05:58
    started uh training Ukrainian military
  • 00:06:02
    forces on the ground in Ukraine uh which
  • 00:06:05
    was uh a uh significant part Western
  • 00:06:09
    training to the Ukrainian Armed Forces
  • 00:06:12
    is one of the reasons why uh Ukraine has
  • 00:06:14
    been able to stand up to uh the Russian
  • 00:06:18
    uh Invaders so effectively over the past
  • 00:06:20
    years it's not just Canada a number of
  • 00:06:22
    countries had been involved uh but for
  • 00:06:25
    historical reasons Canada having the
  • 00:06:27
    second largest dias of ukrainians in the
  • 00:06:31
    world the entire supply chain for the
  • 00:06:32
    UK's nukes are from us suppliers and
  • 00:06:34
    sources yeah but keep in mind that a lot
  • 00:06:36
    of the stuff the United States produces
  • 00:06:37
    also has supply lines that run to other
  • 00:06:39
    countries too right like Canada Mexico
  • 00:06:41
    are European Partners but that's all
  • 00:06:43
    over now like the all of these ties are
  • 00:06:45
    being severed right now every single
  • 00:06:47
    European government every Ally not even
  • 00:06:49
    just in Europe are making
  • 00:06:51
    plans to um uh to to break away from the
  • 00:06:57
    United States and and to think like
  • 00:06:59
    literally all of
  • 00:07:01
    this just to I don't know I mean I guess
  • 00:07:04
    I guess at the end of the day it's just
  • 00:07:06
    about like Elon Musk witing everyone to
  • 00:07:08
    think he's cool like that's kind of the
  • 00:07:10
    whole reason all this is happening sort
  • 00:07:12
    of like how you you see you hear about
  • 00:07:13
    like big historical Wars or like the
  • 00:07:15
    Chinese Three Kingdoms period And if you
  • 00:07:17
    like trace it back to its root it's like
  • 00:07:19
    well one guy really really thought that
  • 00:07:21
    his dad should respect them more and
  • 00:07:23
    that's kind of why this all happened you
  • 00:07:25
    know and Obama's tight five ah the F3 35
  • 00:07:29
    is built with parts and components from
  • 00:07:31
    like every us Ally NATO country don't
  • 00:07:32
    worry American Military Supremacy is
  • 00:07:34
    going to start falling apart pretty soon
  • 00:07:36
    as well our military Supremacy has
  • 00:07:38
    basically been unquestioned up until
  • 00:07:39
    this point but as of a few weeks ago
  • 00:07:42
    we're doing the Russia bit which is a
  • 00:07:44
    military leadership is being appointed
  • 00:07:46
    based on loyalty rather than on
  • 00:07:48
    competence that's really all it takes
  • 00:07:49
    everything from that point forward is a
  • 00:07:51
    downhill role uh it doesn't matter how
  • 00:07:54
    much money you pump into the system
  • 00:07:56
    right at the end of the day military
  • 00:07:58
    competence comes down to you know
  • 00:08:00
    discipline consistency uh independent
  • 00:08:03
    decision- making once you once you erode
  • 00:08:05
    at that you know once you make it about
  • 00:08:07
    loyalty you you kind
  • 00:08:09
    of it all falls apart uh means that uh
  • 00:08:13
    we felt deeply connected to Ukraine but
  • 00:08:17
    we also believe deeply uh that it's not
  • 00:08:20
    just about Ukraine it's about the rules
  • 00:08:24
    and the values and the principles of
  • 00:08:27
    sovereignty of independence of ter
  • 00:08:29
    torial Integrity that protects every
  • 00:08:32
    country in the world the American
  • 00:08:34
    Military is already kind of competent if
  • 00:08:36
    you want a perfect example of what I'm
  • 00:08:38
    talking about how discipline and
  • 00:08:41
    discipline and competence being
  • 00:08:43
    prioritized over loyalty the biggest
  • 00:08:45
    example of this I think is the
  • 00:08:47
    difference between how we behav during
  • 00:08:49
    the Gulf War versus the Iraq Vietnam War
  • 00:08:53
    I think you see a perfect like it's very
  • 00:08:55
    very obvious which of these wars was
  • 00:08:57
    conducted with like political or or
  • 00:08:59
    sorry U military competence first and
  • 00:09:02
    which of them were conducted as
  • 00:09:03
    political exercises first with you know
  • 00:09:05
    the generals essentially being told like
  • 00:09:07
    catchup like this is what
  • 00:09:09
    we're doing get in line you know like
  • 00:09:11
    this is yeah we're president's
  • 00:09:12
    commander-in-chief this is what we're
  • 00:09:14
    going for um it's pretty obvious you can
  • 00:09:17
    tell Gulf War was so perfect it's kind
  • 00:09:19
    of beautiful in a way it was like a
  • 00:09:20
    synchronized dance the Gulf War
  • 00:09:24
    insane all of us rely on those rules uh
  • 00:09:28
    to be able to build peace and security
  • 00:09:30
    and we know uh that with the world
  • 00:09:33
    changing we're all going to have to do
  • 00:09:35
    more around peace and security one of
  • 00:09:37
    the key themes that we heard today as
  • 00:09:40
    we've heard from uh many many partners
  • 00:09:42
    around the world in NATO and elsewhere
  • 00:09:44
    over the past number of years is people
  • 00:09:47
    are going to be doing more on defense n
  • 00:09:50
    and a half years ago when I took office
  • 00:09:52
    in Canada um the previous government had
  • 00:09:55
    us down below
  • 00:09:57
    1% of Defense ending uh even though the
  • 00:10:01
    NATO 2% pledge had been made uh a year
  • 00:10:04
    or two before uh in the subsequent time
  • 00:10:07
    we have more than uh tripled defense
  • 00:10:10
    spending on the path to 2030 and we're
  • 00:10:12
    on our way to 2% and we know it is
  • 00:10:14
    genuinely really sad that like this is
  • 00:10:16
    the direction the world is heading in
  • 00:10:18
    but much in the same like I I have to be
  • 00:10:21
    consistent here right like I would have
  • 00:10:24
    militantly supported us Armament against
  • 00:10:26
    the Nazis in World War II I'm like it it
  • 00:10:29
    it's it's not a principled pacifism or I
  • 00:10:32
    I suppose it is very principled in the
  • 00:10:34
    sense that that's the world you're
  • 00:10:35
    fighting for but like clearly the work's
  • 00:10:37
    not done at the end of the day all of
  • 00:10:40
    this all of this comes down to Capital
  • 00:10:43
    there's no way around that everything
  • 00:10:46
    we're experiencing right now in the
  • 00:10:48
    United States is a consequence of a
  • 00:10:50
    slower version of what happened in
  • 00:10:52
    Russia after the fall of the Soviet
  • 00:10:54
    Union which is you know you consolidate
  • 00:10:56
    power in the hands of too small a group
  • 00:10:58
    of people blahy blah blah you know the
  • 00:10:59
    deal you know my Spiel would you support
  • 00:11:01
    a war against Russia no because I'm not
  • 00:11:03
    like insanely stupid however you know
  • 00:11:06
    the possibility of proxy wars cropping
  • 00:11:08
    up or
  • 00:11:11
    whatever can't rely on America we know
  • 00:11:13
    where America stands
  • 00:11:16
    now it's a good Spiel it is a good Spiel
  • 00:11:19
    and it's true it's it's just true we're
  • 00:11:22
    going to have to continue to do more and
  • 00:11:24
    more in an uncertain world and Canada
  • 00:11:26
    will be there as to how we will be there
  • 00:11:29
    um we will work with our neighbors on it
  • 00:11:31
    but uh everything is on the table
  • 00:11:33
    because we need to make
  • 00:11:35
    sure that might no longer makes right
  • 00:11:39
    Europe could beat Russia in a
  • 00:11:40
    conventional War if they had the will
  • 00:11:42
    well sure but it wouldn't be a
  • 00:11:43
    conventional War it'd be nuclear
  • 00:11:44
    apocalypse yes in a conventional War
  • 00:11:46
    Russia would get stomped by plenty of
  • 00:11:47
    countries uh certainly a United European
  • 00:11:50
    front like it wouldn't even be the
  • 00:11:52
    Russian Doctrine is landmines you know
  • 00:11:55
    tank traps artillery and uh infantry you
  • 00:12:00
    know they they would get they would be
  • 00:12:02
    deleted from space they lasers you know
  • 00:12:06
    it wouldn't even be a thing but nukes
  • 00:12:08
    are nukes that's how it
  • 00:12:10
    is in this world that's what has led to
  • 00:12:13
    80 years of incredible stability and
  • 00:12:16
    prosperity not just in Europe but around
  • 00:12:18
    the world because of the institutions we
  • 00:12:20
    built out of the ashes of World War II
  • 00:12:22
    and standing up for those
  • 00:12:25
    institutions is in the best interest of
  • 00:12:28
    every single one of us now as a
  • 00:12:31
    collection of different nations we will
  • 00:12:33
    have different perspectives uh from time
  • 00:12:36
    to time on the best way forward and
  • 00:12:38
    those will be worked out I just don't
  • 00:12:39
    see Russian oligarchs being behind
  • 00:12:41
    living in a cold bunker eating canned
  • 00:12:43
    food for the rest of their lives didn't
  • 00:12:44
    you hear Donald Trump is selling um
  • 00:12:46
    American Pathways to citizenship for
  • 00:12:48
    only 5 million each a Russian oligarch
  • 00:12:50
    can easily afford
  • 00:12:52
    that in forums like this or uh at the G7
  • 00:12:55
    Forum or elsewhere but we are united in
  • 00:12:58
    our values we are united and wanting to
  • 00:13:00
    see peace and fairness and prosperity
  • 00:13:02
    for all our citizens and that's what
  • 00:13:04
    continues to drive us
  • 00:13:07
    forward will Europe remove American
  • 00:13:09
    bases from their countries actually yeah
  • 00:13:11
    I think that shift is coming that was
  • 00:13:13
    something Donald Trump was even talking
  • 00:13:14
    about before in this in it talks with
  • 00:13:16
    Russia down in Saudi Arabia Russia wants
  • 00:13:19
    that certainly yeah that might actually
  • 00:13:21
    happen though we we would need to move a
  • 00:13:23
    little the needle would need to move a
  • 00:13:24
    little further in that direction for
  • 00:13:27
    that to be like really on the table but
  • 00:13:29
    yeah where are the new bases going to be
  • 00:13:30
    I don't think there would be new bases I
  • 00:13:32
    just think we would like lose our allies
  • 00:13:34
    my Battalion Commander literally said
  • 00:13:35
    that needs to happen this morning yeah
  • 00:13:37
    it's I mean at this point there a
  • 00:13:38
    security threat would you want Russian
  • 00:13:40
    bases in Germany and France probably not
  • 00:13:42
    I've started to miss vos's patriotism
  • 00:13:44
    speeches sorry you guys you got like
  • 00:13:46
    Jingo you you got like jingoist
  • 00:13:48
    pro-american speeches under Biden when
  • 00:13:50
    it was appropriate uh they're not
  • 00:13:52
    appropriate right now I'm sorry we're
  • 00:13:53
    the bad guys we're unambiguously the bad
  • 00:13:56
    guys in this Dynamic we 've always been
  • 00:14:00
    bad mind you but there are usually tiers
  • 00:14:04
    above or below good things you could or
  • 00:14:06
    couldn't do this is an unmistakable
  • 00:14:08
    shift downwards on the rung it's uh not
  • 00:14:13
    good it's crazy how Al line the US is
  • 00:14:15
    with Russia China Iran North Korea and
  • 00:14:17
    being evil well hold on okay there are
  • 00:14:18
    major differences here North Korea for
  • 00:14:20
    one is a meme Russia is a raped uh
  • 00:14:24
    pillaged hole run by a few hundred
  • 00:14:28
    ultra wealthy men who want to do the
  • 00:14:31
    same To America that is the goal of the
  • 00:14:33
    ultra wealthy here Iran benefits from
  • 00:14:36
    their relationship with Russia but
  • 00:14:37
    they're doing their own thing and their
  • 00:14:39
    own thing is holding an incredibly
  • 00:14:41
    narrow margin of control over a uh a
  • 00:14:44
    population that does not like their
  • 00:14:45
    government and
  • 00:14:47
    [Music]
  • 00:14:49
    China I actually think that which
  • 00:14:51
    direction China goes in is going to be
  • 00:14:53
    one of the big that's going to be one of
  • 00:14:55
    the big like kingmaker moments I guess
  • 00:14:58
    because China has incentives to run in
  • 00:15:00
    both directions you
  • 00:15:02
    know it could be a Chinese Century but
  • 00:15:06
    if they wanted it to be the best thing
  • 00:15:08
    they could do in my opinion would be to
  • 00:15:10
    align with the EU the the gulf between
  • 00:15:13
    China and America is arbitrary and
  • 00:15:16
    politically constructed for one America
  • 00:15:19
    has good uh relationships with plenty of
  • 00:15:21
    dictatorships for two keep in mind we
  • 00:15:24
    didn't consider China an enemy until
  • 00:15:26
    recently it was only after their dangus
  • 00:15:28
    econ iic miracle that we even like that
  • 00:15:31
    that was a consideration Nixon opened
  • 00:15:33
    talks with China back in the in the
  • 00:15:35
    what' 70s yeah yeah it was 70s the idea
  • 00:15:37
    that China's like this great threat from
  • 00:15:39
    overseas a lot of you probably don't
  • 00:15:41
    remember that narrative is only about 20
  • 00:15:43
    years old I know it sounds crazy but
  • 00:15:46
    like back during the early Bush term it
  • 00:15:49
    wasn't like this Trump is the first
  • 00:15:51
    president to really lean in on it Obama
  • 00:15:54
    and Bush more talked about China like
  • 00:15:56
    foreign competitors which is fair that's
  • 00:15:58
    you know that's Fair economic
  • 00:15:59
    competitors sure um but to treat them
  • 00:16:02
    like an enemy that's a trump thing it's
  • 00:16:04
    relatively new China could deep in ties
  • 00:16:07
    with the European
  • 00:16:09
    Union it would make sense for them to in
  • 00:16:11
    my opinion if it was possible
  • 00:16:14
    to the EU does not hate China as much as
  • 00:16:17
    America hates China what about bricks
  • 00:16:20
    bricks is still a meme still a meme
  • 00:16:22
    still a meme the EU does not want to
  • 00:16:23
    Ally with China well depends on what you
  • 00:16:25
    mean by Ally there's a trade
  • 00:16:27
    relationship
  • 00:16:29
    to what extent you know like how how
  • 00:16:31
    much will that develop I really do hope
  • 00:16:33
    our European allies are able to pick
  • 00:16:34
    themselves up how do you see the the
  • 00:16:36
    best way for the EU to deal with the one
  • 00:16:39
    issue that is perhaps the last remaining
  • 00:16:41
    issue of integration and that is
  • 00:16:44
    defense um yes this is a very good
  • 00:16:47
    question I think I've always been of the
  • 00:16:50
    opinion um that uh Europe should not
  • 00:16:53
    create any alternative to Nato because
  • 00:16:57
    um I mean NATO is a military structure
  • 00:17:02
    and every NATO member I mean we have 31
  • 00:17:06
    members now 32 members 32 British prime
  • 00:17:09
    minister no she's uh Estonia is she not
  • 00:17:12
    am I wrong in this am I wrong in my
  • 00:17:13
    memory Kaja kayak
  • 00:17:16
    kalis Estonian yeah um the the Baltic
  • 00:17:20
    states are NATO's greatest Soldiers by
  • 00:17:22
    the way these These are the like we we
  • 00:17:25
    we sit pretty with our budget over in
  • 00:17:27
    America but these these These are the
  • 00:17:29
    like suicide vest wearing front line
  • 00:17:32
    against Russian aggression you know
  • 00:17:34
    they're they're they're right up
  • 00:17:39
    there 32 members now so uh you have 3 uh
  • 00:17:44
    two different
  • 00:17:47
    armies defense planners um and uh 32
  • 00:17:52
    defense budgets so so that means you
  • 00:17:55
    need those armies to work together um
  • 00:17:58
    and and what now comes to the the
  • 00:18:02
    European side is that we need to have
  • 00:18:06
    the the
  • 00:18:08
    interoperability of all the capabilities
  • 00:18:11
    and and stuff I mean I bring you one
  • 00:18:13
    example um just I'm I'm just trying to
  • 00:18:16
    get a a feeling I guess moving out from
  • 00:18:19
    here I I took a look at um various
  • 00:18:21
    European nations media I wanted to take
  • 00:18:24
    a look try to get like a Vibe I guess
  • 00:18:26
    and it's it's all like very Pro zinski
  • 00:18:29
    even if they're not being super open in
  • 00:18:31
    their antagonism against President
  • 00:18:32
    zalinski is preparing to travel to
  • 00:18:34
    London for a summit of European leaders
  • 00:18:36
    on Sunday what's what's our preferred
  • 00:18:38
    source of media from uh France the
  • 00:18:40
    english- speaking channel can you remind
  • 00:18:42
    me after he clashed with President Trump
  • 00:18:44
    and vice president JD Vance in an
  • 00:18:46
    extraordinary shouting match on a visit
  • 00:18:48
    to the Oval Office president Trump
  • 00:18:50
    accused the Ukrainian leader of gambling
  • 00:18:53
    with World War I and of not being even
  • 00:18:55
    melan con is uh is praising zalinski in
  • 00:18:58
    any case seninsky was courageous without
  • 00:19:00
    his upom our continent would display the
  • 00:19:02
    status of a simple colony of the USA
  • 00:19:04
    whose leaders will Pat themselves in the
  • 00:19:05
    back with their buddy Trump hey at least
  • 00:19:07
    we're making being pro Ukrainian the
  • 00:19:09
    anti-American position sorry meanon
  • 00:19:11
    meanon being grateful for the support of
  • 00:19:14
    the US president zalinski made it clear
  • 00:19:16
    there should be no compromises with
  • 00:19:18
    President Putin following all that drama
  • 00:19:21
    the president of Ukraine was ordered to
  • 00:19:22
    leave the White House and a much
  • 00:19:24
    anticipated minerals deal was not signed
  • 00:19:27
    the US president later said president
  • 00:19:29
    zinski could return when he was ready
  • 00:19:31
    for peace our North America editor Sarah
  • 00:19:33
    Smith has this
  • 00:19:35
    report Donald Trump began the day
  • 00:19:38
    confident he was about to sign a very
  • 00:19:40
    advantageous deal we know what happened
  • 00:19:42
    can you can you all forgive me perhaps
  • 00:19:44
    for being a little bit like weirded out
  • 00:19:46
    by all of this I understand that we we
  • 00:19:47
    like sort of intellectually grapple with
  • 00:19:49
    what's happening here but on a personal
  • 00:19:51
    level the idea that over the course of a
  • 00:19:53
    few months the entire Global Order
  • 00:19:56
    centering on my country by the way
  • 00:19:59
    the entire Global order has been upended
  • 00:20:01
    and it we're we're in like a completely
  • 00:20:03
    unknown I don't know man so something's
  • 00:20:06
    happening yeah nothing ever happens
  • 00:20:08
    folks are definitely definitely
  • 00:20:10
    definitely not eating
  • 00:20:11
    well global leaders react to verbal
  • 00:20:13
    brawl and Oval Office it's difficult to
  • 00:20:16
    get a feel for what the attention levels
  • 00:20:18
    are in uh say for example um in in
  • 00:20:22
    Germany you know based off their English
  • 00:20:24
    speaking channel right they would be
  • 00:20:25
    going to like German news sources but
  • 00:20:27
    it's pretty obvious how people feel
  • 00:20:29
    British media is straight up having
  • 00:20:30
    people say JD Vance is a piece of
  • 00:20:32
    on air it it it is it is insane that all
  • 00:20:35
    of this is being done but because a few
  • 00:20:38
    hundred ultra wealthy people want to
  • 00:20:41
    treat America like a no rules playground
  • 00:20:43
    for The Wealthy they want to turn
  • 00:20:45
    America into Dubai that's literally it
  • 00:20:48
    that's L that's what it all boils down
  • 00:20:49
    to is it because Trump's an egotist sure
  • 00:20:52
    but that's not the cause is it because
  • 00:20:54
    Elon Musk wants you to believe he's good
  • 00:20:55
    at playing Path of Exile too sure but
  • 00:20:57
    that's not the cause is it because JD
  • 00:20:59
    van couches sure but that's not the
  • 00:21:01
    cause the cause is because that's what
  • 00:21:05
    Russia is to them to the oligarchs in
  • 00:21:08
    Russia that is it is it's that's all it
  • 00:21:10
    is they're Untouchable they're legally
  • 00:21:13
    Untouchable to anyone other than
  • 00:21:14
    Vladimir Putin you know like as long as
  • 00:21:17
    you don't get on his bad side they can
  • 00:21:19
    just basically do whatever they want and
  • 00:21:21
    Russia is a hole to Russians but to
  • 00:21:23
    those few hundred or so people oh they
  • 00:21:25
    have the time they have such a good time
  • 00:21:28
    it's like that in Dubai yeah most of the
  • 00:21:30
    people living on the outskirts are
  • 00:21:33
    slaves foreign workers with their visas
  • 00:21:36
    taken away yeah it's a city to live
  • 00:21:39
    in but if you can treat it like a
  • 00:21:41
    permanent tourist then fine it's perfect
  • 00:21:42
    for you if you're wealthy enough to
  • 00:21:44
    enjoy the many sites and sounds then
  • 00:21:46
    it's actually one of the most
  • 00:21:47
    interesting cities to live in I'm told
  • 00:21:49
    for a certain type of person and this is
  • 00:21:52
    it's not even a 1% thing what is what is
  • 00:21:54
    the 1% in America $400,000 a year or
  • 00:21:57
    something like that
  • 00:21:59
    $400,000 a year that's not Dubai
  • 00:22:02
    levels 700k that's not Dubai levels a
  • 00:22:05
    million 2 million a year no we're
  • 00:22:07
    talking about literally like the
  • 00:22:11
    smallest yeah like like the top 1% of
  • 00:22:14
    the 1% maybe that and everything is
  • 00:22:18
    being done for their benefit everything
  • 00:22:20
    else is just propaganda Canada's foreign
  • 00:22:22
    ministers has New Economic and security
  • 00:22:24
    Partners needed Aid shift in USA Jesus
  • 00:22:27
    Christ Our closest allly
  • 00:22:29
    closest both politically and
  • 00:22:31
    geographically they're right there
  • 00:22:34
    man they're right there and they're
  • 00:22:38
    looking for a way out listen okay you
  • 00:22:41
    can be an accelerationist or not but the
  • 00:22:43
    acceleration is coming you can listen
  • 00:22:45
    Everyone's an accelerationist when the
  • 00:22:47
    person driving the car hits the
  • 00:22:49
    accelerator all right you can believe in
  • 00:22:51
    it or not I'm from Eastern Europe do you
  • 00:22:53
    guys in the US see a shift in how people
  • 00:22:54
    think about Trump after yesterday that's
  • 00:22:56
    theed up thing no they're can't there
  • 00:22:58
    will never in America be a big Paradigm
  • 00:23:02
    Shift like what you see abroad because
  • 00:23:05
    half of this country is
  • 00:23:07
    so hopelessly propagandized to that they
  • 00:23:11
    could watch Trump their child and they
  • 00:23:15
    would still come up with an excuse it is
  • 00:23:18
    insane how polarized this country is the
  • 00:23:21
    problem it's not just how far right
  • 00:23:24
    America is because we're not the most
  • 00:23:26
    farri country in the world politically
  • 00:23:27
    speaking not even close it's that the
  • 00:23:30
    American right has been taught to not
  • 00:23:33
    believe in anything no principles
  • 00:23:35
    absolutely none everything is to trigger
  • 00:23:37
    the lips that's the unique American
  • 00:23:39
    phenomenon there are other countries out
  • 00:23:40
    there that are very far right who will
  • 00:23:42
    nonetheless adhere to those far-right
  • 00:23:45
    principles you know there are countries
  • 00:23:48
    out there that think gay people should
  • 00:23:49
    be stoned or whatever but if they found
  • 00:23:51
    out their political leaders were gay
  • 00:23:52
    they would want those political leaders
  • 00:23:54
    stoned but here in America they want
  • 00:23:56
    profile stoned sure fine I prefer for I
  • 00:23:58
    don't know the justice system or
  • 00:23:59
    whatever but go ahead I guess then they
  • 00:24:01
    find out Trump is literally Epstein's
  • 00:24:04
    closest friend no one cares that's the
  • 00:24:07
    difference it's not that America is
  • 00:24:08
    super far right it's that the American
  • 00:24:11
    right does not believe in anything and
  • 00:24:14
    their constituents have been taught to
  • 00:24:16
    not believe in anything so they so
  • 00:24:18
    nothing moves the
  • 00:24:21
    needle you know Trump might uh crash the
  • 00:24:24
    economy Trump might do this Trump might
  • 00:24:25
    do
  • 00:24:26
    that it doesn't matter like it it it
  • 00:24:29
    doesn't matter cuz it's fake or it's not
  • 00:24:31
    fake or it was to trigger the libs or he
  • 00:24:32
    didn't actually mean that or whatever
  • 00:24:34
    that's yeah that's the cancer here I
  • 00:24:36
    would rather argue with a with a
  • 00:24:38
    thousand um uh reactionary islamists who
  • 00:24:42
    come over here from from from Iran or
  • 00:24:44
    something you know I would rather have a
  • 00:24:46
    conversation with all of them in a row
  • 00:24:48
    about the right for women to show their
  • 00:24:50
    hair or whatever the if they actually
  • 00:24:52
    believe it I would rather talk about it
  • 00:24:54
    with them than a single Trump supporter
  • 00:24:56
    who will walk back every single thing
  • 00:24:59
    they pretend they believe in the nanc
  • 00:25:01
    it's politically expedient people with
  • 00:25:03
    no principles jell spines Real Talk
  • 00:25:06
    what's the solution to that I can't I I
  • 00:25:08
    don't want to talk about
  • 00:25:09
    it overwhelming uh media
  • 00:25:13
    capture exercised with a level of
  • 00:25:16
    ferocity that flashing a lot of whatever
  • 00:25:19
    you want you know Trudeau is going to
  • 00:25:21
    Europe
  • 00:25:24
    really oh my
  • 00:25:27
    God damn they are going to join the EU
  • 00:25:30
    holy I I I don't know I think the
  • 00:25:33
    first step is the UK rejoin the EU I
  • 00:25:35
    don't know if they will they have to
  • 00:25:36
    deal with their own the UK isn't
  • 00:25:37
    really like very European culturally
  • 00:25:39
    they need to they need to bring it back
  • 00:25:41
    protests against JD Vance that's good
  • 00:25:43
    that's good that's good they can
  • 00:25:45
    threaten military Invasion again like we
  • 00:25:48
    have to know our place okay America
  • 00:25:50
    could be brought to its knees almost
  • 00:25:52
    instantly with a with an embargo okay if
  • 00:25:54
    America actually threatened to invade
  • 00:25:56
    Canada it would be
  • 00:25:59
    ruinous for the continent it would not
  • 00:26:01
    be good like even a little bit and the
  • 00:26:05
    way things are going having a feeling
  • 00:26:07
    that European countries other NATO
  • 00:26:09
    countries might start to supply Canada
  • 00:26:11
    not
  • 00:26:12
    us I don't think it's actually on the
  • 00:26:14
    table is it possible that the USA helps
  • 00:26:16
    Russia militarily in Ukraine yeah not
  • 00:26:18
    only is it possible I'm I'm very
  • 00:26:20
    confident that it's going to happen yeah
  • 00:26:22
    Japan's pulling away from us as well I
  • 00:26:24
    think the chatter meant in the sense of
  • 00:26:25
    the US bombing Ukraine no the American
  • 00:26:27
    public would not tolerate direct
  • 00:26:29
    interference like
  • 00:26:30
    that uh that would that would be
  • 00:26:32
    shocking to me providing arms to Russia
  • 00:26:34
    it'd be crazy but it could happen at
  • 00:26:35
    this like the way things are going that
  • 00:26:37
    could happen yeah um hello Reuben beep
  • 00:26:41
    no more Japanese denim for you yeah you
  • 00:26:43
    think the public opinion uh still
  • 00:26:45
    matters yes yes it does yes it does
  • 00:26:47
    never forget no matter how bad things
  • 00:26:50
    get every dictatorship in history is
  • 00:26:52
    built upon at the very least the um the
  • 00:26:55
    passive acceptance of the uh majority
  • 00:26:58
    majority always no matter what no one
  • 00:27:00
    has ever built a power structure uh that
  • 00:27:03
    has not been reliant on the majority
  • 00:27:05
    being at least quiet it's a
  • 00:27:08
    necessity public opinion still matters a
  • 00:27:10
    lot but what if half the country is this
  • 00:27:12
    indoctrinated into a cult they they
  • 00:27:14
    don't the Republicans don't want to
  • 00:27:17
    invade Ukraine on Russia's side the
  • 00:27:19
    Republican constituency is not
  • 00:27:20
    interested in that there are limits to
  • 00:27:22
    this
  • 00:27:23
    thing we are we are benefiting to a
  • 00:27:26
    large extent from the fact that
  • 00:27:27
    Americans can not stand
  • 00:27:32
    hardship Canada's on track to hit
  • 00:27:34
    recruiting targets holy
  • 00:27:37
    that's funny
