Allies react to what they see as a bit of a betrayal? how do you react to russian forces marching nonchalantly? >> the defeat of isis which resulted in the physical destruction of a caliphate, we didnt sign up to fight a war, to defend the kurds to a longstanding ally and they certainly dirnlt recall. at the same time you had syrian and russian forces moving in. thats not the position in which we want our young soldiers and americans to ask you about. -- >> you know better than i do, its not a f...

Now in a new phase to ensure that we could maintain pressure on isis so it doesnt resurge. >> golly, secretary, in a new phase. some would say you have -- i dont know -- want only or willingly ended the success on isis. you heard what general pet rayus said. it is not a new phase. the metrics are not about territory. they are about resurgence and regrouping and the ability to do so and even before the withdraw of the u.s. forces many in your military were watching a resurgence and cells come tog...

With the kurds to assist us in that effort and president trump, to his credit, basically embraced that same strategy and thats what allowed us to be able to ultimately defeat the caliphate. >> i want to ask you about the continuing fallout from mick mulvaney, quid quo pro comments. the president refused to answer questions about whether mulvaneys job was safe. if you had made that kind of mistakes when you were chief of staff, and im not sure it was actually a mistake, he was actually telling th...

State. i think that maintaining security of the oil fields together again with our syria incurred partners would be a wise move, it keeps it from falg into the hands of iran or the io hold those when they had the caliphate established in iraq and syria. we need to reestablish confidence in us as partners and allies. this has not been a well-planned and phased operation as you well know. it has become a bit of a chaotic endeavor, certainly the turks are now coordinating with the russians, they ar...

prisoners and most, they were captured under trump. we killed many, many isis fighters. you know, you hate to talk about it. >> sean: caliphate. >> president trump: we took 100% of the caliphate. 100%. everybody says it. its not like oh, gee, obama did it, i did it. but you know what, it is time to bring ourselves -- and it is interesting. that little fight for two days, vicious stuff. i dont know that turkey would have done what they did, like the cease-fire. and i dont know if the kurds wou...

Strategic location. we probably store a variety of ground -- crown jewels there. we need the flank. its been the stabilizing force until recently. they denied us access in 2003 when we tried to get into northern iraq. somebody has to keep the lid on the iranian aggression. someone now if course has to keep a lid on what the russians are doing and of course i think erdogan is incredibly geopolitically ambitious, as weve seen some of his actions over the last complete years. i had a very high plac...

Hitting saudi arabia, we sent troops over to saudi arabia. saudi arabia is paying for it. thats never happened before. we said you have to pay and they are paying and they have nothing but money, nothing but cash and they are paying. we sent some troops over there. we will give them good protection. we have a lot of good capital. everybody thought when i got elected, hillary clinton used to utut say, oh, you will have world war iii. well, im very tempered, actually. a lot of people, i have built...

We will watch and i can get your reaction. >> one of the things that president trump is doing that he has not laid out on the table is that he is driving many nations that are sort of adverse to us together. turkey, russia, iran, syria, the assad regime is all being empowered by this. >> harris: he is echoing what you are saying, a democrat, six hours of a meeting between the russian and turkish president today. >> my frustration is that a lot of these individuals supported obama steel policy in...

Captured under trump. we killed many, many isis fighters. you know, you hate to talk about it. >> sean: caliphate. >> president trump: we took 100% of the caliphate. 100%. everybody says it. its not like oh, gee, obama did it, i did it. but you know what, it is time to bring our soldiers home. that little fight for two days, vicious stuff. i dont know that turkey would have done what they did, like the cease-fire. and i dont know if the kurds would have moved out. but we went through two days an...

But money, nothing but cash and they are paying. we sent some troops over there. we will give them good protection. we have a lot of good capital. everybody thought when i got elected, hillary clinton used to say, oh, you will have world war iii. phil, and very tempered, actually. a lot of people, i have built up a lot of capital. >> sean: by not getting. >> president trump: by not eating. you understand that. >> sean: the caliphate. >> president trump: i wiped out the caliphate and you saw when...
