FAITH THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN.
REMEMBER PRESIDENT TRUMP TALKING
ON THE BACK PATIO AT MAR-A-LAGO
ABOUT NORTH KOREA.
ACCORDING TO THE BOOK DONALD
TRUMP TOLD BOB WOODWARD I HAVE
BUILT A NUCLEAR WEAPONS SYSTEM
NOBODY HAS HAD IN THIS COUNTRY
BEFORE
WE HAVE STUFF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN
OR HEARD ABOUT
WE HAVE STUFF THAT PUTIN OR XI
HAVEN’T HEARD ABOUT BEFORE
>> THEY HAVE NOW.
>> WHAT WE HAVE IS INCREDIBLE HE
SAYS TO BOB WOODWARD
UNNAMED SOURCES LATER CONFIRMED
A WEAPONS SYSTEM BUT WOULD NOT
PROVIDE ANY FURTHER DETAILS, AND
WERE SURPRISED THAT DONALD TRUMP
HAD DISCLOSED IT
>> JUST ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING.
SHAWNA, SO MUCH HERE TO TALK
ABOUT.
THIS WOULD BE LIKE HARRY TRUMAN
OVER DRINKS WITH FRIENDS TALKING
ABOUT THE MANHATTAN PROJECT A
COUPLE OF MONTHS BEFORE ATOMIC
BOMBS WERE DROPPED ON JAPAN TO
END WORLD WAR II
HERE DONALD TRUMP IS BLURTING
OUT TO A REPORTER THAT WE HAVE A
TOP SECRET CLASSIFIED NUCLEAR
SYSTEM THAT NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT,
EXCEPT, OF COURSE, HE WAS SAYING
IT ON TAPE, ON THE RECORD, SO
NOW EVERYBODY KNOWS ABOUT IT
>> YEAH.
I MEAN, I THINK RUSSIA AND CHINA
KNOW WHAT THEIR NEXT SORT OF
TARGET IS WHEN IT COMES TO CYBER
DISRUPTION AND TRYING TO FIND
OUT NEW INFORMATION, SO THAT’S
NOT GREAT.
I ALSO THINK THAT’S AN EXAMPLE
HOW THE PRESIDENT WAS TRYING TO
CLEAN THIS UP.
HE SAID, AND I READ THIS IN "THE
WASHINGTON POST" THIS MORNING,
PART OF THE EXCUSE OF WHAT HE
WAS SAYING TO BOB WOODWARD IS WE
WANTED TO SHOW STRENGTH AND
CONFIDENCE
THAT’S ALL FINE AND DANDY FOR IF
YOU ARE IN A WORLD WAR II
SITUATION WITH OTHER PEOPLE,
OTHER COUNTRIES, THAT KIND OF
THING.
BUT I KEEP COMING BACK TO
EVERYTHING ABOUT COVID AND THIS
IDEA HE WANTED TO SHOW STRENGTH
AND CONFIDENCE TOWARDS A VIRUS
THE VIRUS DOESN’T CARE IF WE
WERE STRONG OR CONFIDENT
I UNDERSTAND THE IDEA OF A
PRESIDENT NOT WANTING TO ALARM
THE COUNTRY.
BUT PART OF THAT NOT ALARMING
THE COUNTRY IS BEING VERY REAL
WITH THE COUNTRY ABOUT THE RISK
WE WERE UNDER.
WE ALSO LEARNED -- WE SPOKE FOR
WEEKS BECAUSE WE WERE ALL WONDER
WONDERING DID HE ACTUALLY WATCH
OR LISTEN TO HIS BRIEFINGS
DID HE READ THE BRIEFING BOOKS
THE STUFF WAS IN THE BOOKS, HOW
DID HE NOT KNOW MORE
SO NOW WE KNOW HE UNDERSTOOD
HE UNDERSTOOD THE RISKS OF IT.
IT APPEARS HE SEES SO MUCH IN
TERMS OF WINNING AND LOSING THE
ELECTION AND NOT NECESSARILY
WINNING AND LOSING AND HUMAN
BEINGS AND AMERICANS, THAT THAT
IS THE GUIDING FORCE TO
EVERYTHING
WE HAVE TO REMEMBER THAT, AS
PEOPLE DECIDE WHO TO VOTE FOR,
THEY HAVE TO REMEMBER HE SEEMS
TO CARE MORE ABOUT THIS IDEA OF
WILL HE BECOME PRESIDENT AGAIN
AT ALL COSTS INSTEAD OF CAN WE
SAVE SOME LIVES IN THE COUNTRY
THIS ALL FACTORS INTO THE
ELECTION
I WANT TO SAY ONE THING.
I DID AN EXPERIMENT, I REACHED
OUT TO A FAMILY MEMBER IN TEXAS,
WHO IS A VETERAN AND CONSIDERS
HIMSELF CONSERVATIVE
I WAS CURIOUS LAST NIGHT, HAVE
YOU SEEN ANY OF THE NEWS ABOUT
WOODWARD’S BOOK, "THE WASHINGTON
POST" REPORTING ABOUT WOODWARD’S
BOOK, ANY OF THE THINGS WE’VE
TALKED ABOUT
HE’S UNDECIDED ABOUT VOTING IN
GENERAL BECAUSE HE DOESN’T LIKE
PRESIDENT TRUMP AND VICE
PRESIDENT BIDEN THAT MUCH.
HE HAD SEEN NOTHING ABOUT IT
WHAT THAT TELLS ME, THAT’S A
CLUE TO THE VICE PRESIDENT BIDEN
CAMPAIGN TO GET ON THE AIR WITH
THE EXCERPTS FROM THIS BOOK, TO
TRY TO GET IT OUT THERE TO MORE
PEOPLE
HOW ARE THEY GOING TO TARGET
THEIR ADS ON FACEBOOK, ONLINE,
AND WHAT DO THOSE ADS LOOK LIKE?
THEY HAVE T HIS WORDS, THE
COMPARISON OF HIS WORDS TO
WOODWARD AND EVERYTHING HE SAID
IN PUBLIC, THERE WERE MULTIPLE
PIECES ON THE NIGHTLY NEWS LAST
NIGHT, BUT THE SMALL TEST SAID
