hi I'm Greg Gutfeld with Katie Pavlich of Juan Williams Jesse Watters and a
peanut shell is your bike helmet Dana Perino the five
last night President Trump tweeted a reminder to Iran not to mess with us
it was in all caps showing the world that he's not afraid to go all caps
what's next if you listen to the media it has to be war fact is trump was just
trump was just responding to the iranian president who warned us about a mother
of all wars remember the last guy who said that yet predictably the media
freaks out forgetting that whole North Korea thing which followed this same
pattern so forgive me if unlike CNN I'm not pulling my hair out so I'll take a
war of words over a War of worlds now the media claims this tweets a
distraction from last week's summit yet how did that summit hurt Trump for all
the media shaming he's at 45% approval that's as high as so far and we're
happier with the country's direction than any time in the last eight years
this confuses the media as they keep saying that Trump is the worst thing to
ever happen since the view maybe because they've cried wolf so many
times even Blitzer ignores it it's the gulf between what the media wants to
matter and what actually matters according to Gallup in terms of
importance to voters the Russia collusion story rated so small it could
barely be measured it's under 1% to Americans Jesse's new haircut mattered
more and it's not even a good haircut
anyway now the media will say that the tweet means we're all doomed not really
it's the mullahs who should be nervous meanwhile on CNN it's part 200 of the
collusion follies on MSNBC a prime-time end-of-the-world special on ABC deep
political analysis with joy NBC Lester Holt and on CBS some guy my
advice keep it here all right Dana we're seeing an evolution in tweeting all caps
thumbs up or thumbs down didn't start his all caps at the crescendo yes all
caps like he really means it yes one thing I thought was I thought back to
was in April of 2009 I think is when the Green Revolution happened in Iran that's
when the people rose up yeah it wanted help from the United States they did not
get it and so you know here we are in 2018 not
help could have definitely changed things but they needed more help yes of
those talks with Kim Jong right but I will say this to me I'm still struck by
the idea he is still among even though his numbers bumped up in the Wall Street
Journal poll to 45 percent is yeah that's still among the lowest of all
modern presidents in terms of approval and I think that when we think about
Helsinki and Putin it's because the Republican base is like a cult with
Donald Trump they just don't budge they don't care it
doesn't matter to them I was struck by though by the whole media see I see you
and Dana saying oh it's good we need to talk about Iran they're doing this and I
think to myself I think Donald Trump is out foxing everybody because what he's
doing is saying let's talk about NFL players we're talking about Iran let's
talk about let's talk about Iran let's talk about the Federal Reserve raising
interest rates let's talk about the the FBI ranked in the corner office let's
talk about tariffs on China let's talk about anybody nobody talks about that he
talked about that anyway I don't think he cares and but I also don't think he
thinks Helsinki was that big of a deal like most of America
Jesse most of America is more interested with your strange air cut you know my
mother told me to stop talking about my hair filming of your that insult Greg I
will say this though the same Democrats upset with Donald Trump for tweeting all
in caps sent Iran billions all in cash
and the cats it's like was a Teddy Roosevelt speak softly carry a big stick
he speaks loudly and carries a big stick and that's fine I think what he's trying
to do is say we're gonna respond when you're gonna talk trash he's an ultimate
trash talker and Iran is Putin's puppet yeah and he is rhetorically blasting
Iran and he's actually bombing their other puppets Syria so how is he in
cahoots with the Russians that you're grant makes no sense
yeah no so Joe Katie this has to do with Russia in a way I would add with Syria
it has to do with the Middle East as a whole it has to do with foreign policy
in Afghanistan and Afghanistan you know there is now this restructuring going on
of the Middle East when it comes to everybody essentially becoming allies
and a little bit of a way to go against Iran and
you look at the you know what is being reported as Juan just tried to distract
back to with all these other topics that we're not discussing right now there are
very serious things going on in Iran and although we've been focused on other
topics on the surface level with the media in the United States there are
very serious consequences to what could happen there
inflation is a hundred and fifty nine percent in that country a third of the
Iranian youth are unemployed and the Iranian regime now is facing the
consequences of using all the money they've been getting from the United
States from the Europeans and they're spending it on terrorism and the people
there have been protesting for years now because they know that and you look at
the speech the secretary Pompeo gave at the Reagan Library it is very clear that
they are not saying we want regime change but based on the language of
standing with the people talking about maybe putting more sanctions on
threatening back when Iran by the way threatens us first and dealing with the
problem that quite frankly President Obama did not handle very well I think
the venue of the speech was important to the regularity the Reagan life I'll be
there I mean yours won't be as impactful I think I change the world by the way
you know I have to point out that the Iranian guy also said the what's
possible is the mother of all peace do you think there was actually think that
there I absolutely believe that President Trump will say why don't we
just meet yeah okay and then imagine when when the Republicans lost their
minds was Obama's like maybe I should talk to them like don't you dare didn't
he try to meet him before already didn't that I think there's like letters yeah a
lot of letters that's that really there's um I want to play us sound on
tape from a network see this is CNN yeah they're still around they're hanging by
a thread though it's about they're there wagging the dog scenario that this is
actually a distraction roll it please I don't want to go full wag the dog but I
mean we know that the president's strategy it's a flag I mean here not
today the president's strategy he's employed it over and over we would be
foolish not to absorb it and recognize it he'd when he's embarrassed as he was
last week he always looks for a distraction
I don't buy this because he wasn't impaired
I mean Helsinki happened a week ago and he's been doubling down burnin up
another summit nope you should have done this last week if we really want to do
this it's also rich talking about wagging the dog with Democrats I think
it was Bill Clinton who bombed an aspirin factory during the Lewinsky
testimony so I think they know a little bit about wagging the dog oh so in other
words you're not denying that that's exactly what he's doing
no if he had wagged it it would have been a week ago I think that it all is
in the lead up to these sanctions that are going to go back into place on
August 6 which is only like 12 days away I think that it's the lead-up to that so
that people aren't surprised by when the president says we're snapping back these
things like a big snap back to my mind is when he says on you know he was
walking back last at the end of last week oh you know I didn't mean to say
that the Russians weren't responsible interference Sunday night he says this
whole thing is a hoax the actual what he's saying when he says hoax Sara
Sanders said today what he means is that the the accusation of collusion so you
so would or wouldn't you know what I mean it's always like something but he
just keeps shifting it and for some reason it satisfies the GOP House and
the Senate they're so afraid of the Republicans who March and locks the
Trump that they are biting their tongues but then you see people come on Russia
oh they do big toe it's nothing compared to the cult of Obama let's raise the
meat for eight years the media did nothing but but Obama's bidding so
please I work at Fox News I know we weren't doing Obama's bid well look
going back to Dana's point which is the overall construct of how we're moving
forward on Iran we went toward the Iran deal President Trump got rid of it there
are going to be consequences moving forward how the administration deals
with the regime and they are obviously looking at the idea of Iran not being
able to sustain economically any kind of sanctions or further pressure the United
States puts on them because it will lead to regime change with the which the u.s.
is not
especially pushing for but based on the things that have been said the pressure
that's been put on Pompeii up calling out the leaders by name and saying that
they're hypocritical holy men and tweeting and Farsi to the activists on
the ground there you know this is an overall strategy for the administration
it's not just a distraction from Russia because we've been dealing with this
even before Trump became president on the campaign trip is anybody like the
like the mullahs in Iran I mean the people I mean it out how much sway do
they have well I think it would look like with the military right they get
the goodies right and so if you're yeah it's just a typical dictatorial regime
but I think the other thing that we forget is that in Afghanistan and in
Iraq in particular rock is actually doing much better from a long governance
standpoint but Iran is problems causing additional problems and they're moving
into Afghanistan and I think you forget though that there's a counter to the US
sanctions I think he has sanctions kitty are gonna have some pain caused some
pain for the Iranians but don't forget the other parties in what was a
six-party agreement on the Iranian deal are still in it still doing it cropping
up terrorism not arguing that point with you I would agree that they are
terrorists but I would say this that are you a money by the United States acting
unilaterally we are becoming more isolated and weaker on the world stage
we should have our allies with us going against the Iranians we shouldn't be
separated out so that we can be identified by the mullahs as just the
big bad Americans who think they're going to run the world okay so do you
think the president's tweet was strong or weak I think it was a distraction
from his trouble the with the with the Russians and Helsinki no wait we want to
we want to pull back yet we want to run the world oh no it was that possible
because we talked it's leading from behind that's what he's trying to do if
he was that subtle I would tip my cap to you'll be tipping your cap
all right the president looking to strip security clearances from top anti-trump
Obama Intel officials that's the latest next
you
