Paul every time you talk about investing to people in their 20s you hear folks say theres not enough money what i tell them every single time theres plenty of money in this country. Its just in the wrong hands. At times when we have three people in this country with more wealth than the bottom half of america while 500,000 people are sleeping out on the streets today it is time for change. See if this economy is not working for working people. For too long the rules have been written in favor of the people who have the most and not in favor of the people who work for most. Paul lets bring in our panel wall street columnist Dan Henninger colin the kim strassel and bill mcgurn Editorial Board member. Cam whats your main take away from those debates . What did we learn about the democrats right now . Well right now just how far left this party has come. Its really quite extraordinary when you look at everything from immigration basically and open borders policy, Health Care Free for everybody and energy we need to shut down entire industries and the economy we need wealth taxes up to 70 . This is not though clintons party anymore. Paul its not even Barack Obamas party. Its not a rock obamas party and its a huge issue in terms of general electability. Pohl thats very interesting. It is extraordinary the degree to which the party has moved left on so many of these issues. Its hard for me to explain. Partly its a reaction against trump and maybe its generational, young people on the left who are coming into the voting age. I dont know but its really striking. Its an agenda that i think is more liberal than at any time since the 40s or the 30s. I kind of felt i was sitting there in a time machine. I thought these candidates were just terrific if they were running for president in 2008. The Great Recession or 2012 when we are rolling along with Barack Obamas 2 growth. They are choosing to ignore what has happened in the last two years in this economy with employment falling so low for minorities and other people. They wont talk about that. My question paul is once you get to the general election the rule of thumb is you have to be able to pivot towards the middle because the broad electorate is more moderate than that. These people are so far left such as Elizabeth Warren. Im having a hard time seeing exactly how they make a shift in the general election. Pohl put down some markers on private insurance for example Health Insurance and Free Health Care for any immigrant who comes to United States. Im pro immigration but if you say all of latin america come on in, free. You will have to change the incentives anymore. Donald trump will crucify him on that stuff. If anything that is a repudiation of obama. Barack obama cant campaign to the middle and governed to the left but at least he made the nod to nancy pelosi in 2018, this is such a shift. She won her majority by appealing to moderates. Remember with health care and this is all repudiation of that. This is the party base and see who can do it but again those are the people that vote in the democratic nomination. Their fight isnt the general. Its the primary. Pohl lets turn to some of the candidates. Kamala harris is the big story coming out with the attack on joe bidens record. Was that a fair attack just on the factual about biden . I dont think it was a fair attack specifically when youre talking about the senator. He tried to push back on that a little bit saying i wasnt saying that i agreed with these people. Hes said i disagreed that i had to work with them because they were in the senate. I i had to smile at them so that i could beat them is what he was saying but its a savvy attack from a political standpoint. If you look at South Carolina joe biden has been cleaning up among black voters in if youre Kamala Harris in the lower level of the polls you need to eat some of that up. Pohl cam Elizabeth Warren versus Bernie Sanders. As Elizabeth Warren now the person the democratic progressive say you know what i can get 95 of bernies agenda with a different face and a fresher face. I think thats among the intellectual elite. Columnists and tv anchors are gravitating to her partly because she offer such a detailed policy agenda and she also had a good night on wednesday. She was very her take the lead and had a lot of energy up on the stage. She is having a little bit of a boom as a result of that shes coming up in the polls. When the bigger questions though has been about Elizabeth Warrens electability. Democrats more than anything really want to win. At least the voters when you pull them out there and she has along with bernie one of the more radical agendas and that is something i didnt think is going to hold back a little bit. Pohl any other moments struck you gentlemen are did any of the candidates stand out with a particular point . I would say back to the biden point in Kamala Harris she looks strong and she came back and when i watch that i said i could ensure Kamala Harris up against donald trump. I dont think i could picture any of the other people that way. I thought john delaney the former him maryland he had a Great Health Care policy. You are going to take that away from him. Thats probably not good politics going into the general election and yet that has no echo it all in the democratic elite. They want to forget the john delaney even exists. What happens if joe biden indeed stumbles . He had a lot of tonguetied moments in that debate and there is going to be a lot of doubt in the Democratic Party. I think mayor pete would a judge or john delaney. Theres a lot of moderate democrats. Pohl i will get back to the next block. With the first major test behind them where does the democratic field stand .

You also worked with them to oppose busing and there was a little girl in california who was part of the second class to integrate her Public School and she was bused to school every day. That little girl was me. I did not praise races, that is not true number two if you want to have his campaign litigated on who is for civil rights and whether i did it or not im happy to do that. Pohl was california senator Kamala Harris in the second debate attack in former Vice President joe biden on his civil rights record. Biden who shared the stage thursday night with nine of his rivals was the clear frontrunner in the National Polls heading into this weeks debate so did anything happen that could change that. Diana . Lets ask the managing director of the stable group and chief strategist of oaklands 1996 president ial Campaign Hillary clintons 2000 Senate Campaign and mrs. Clintons 2008 president ial campaign. Good to see you. You ran those campaigns and you know intimately the Democratic Party from that era. How is the Democratic Party changed . Of course in those days everything in the party was about moving to the center. The democrats governed in the center and we would object to the party of the left. The party of the left is back and so today the debate is quite different although the maneuver that Kamala Harris did is a classic movie would have done in the 90s to attack the frontrunner and attack him for his record. Pohl i thought that was really interesting. That attack, did you find it affect if . I think he did knock him out. Biden when its the frontrunner pohl really, you dont dont think you stumble too much . I dont think he stumbled too much. I think he was fairly or take you live and explained himself. There is a strategic exchange. Biden has a lot of africanamerican voters and he could lose some so that was a smart attack by harris. I was aimed seen by guest at particular voters in South Carolina for africanamericans take up a huge chunk of the primary lack. Africanamerican voters are about 25 and no one in modern times has won the democratic nomination without a significant africanamerican vote. Paul biden strategy seems to be to stay above the fray to the extent he can then focus on donald trump and associate himself with barack obama. Is that going to be enough to win the primaries . Its a little bit of her rose garden strategy. Sometimes those work but i was in the 30s and right now we may be headed for a Worker Convention list is a breakout. Paul the internal brokered convention. You were saying that he might go down in the polls some. He needs a breakout so i think hes going to have to take more risks. Paul hes going to have to have an agenda that he can associate that will be the biden agenda to say okay not just returned from. Trump to obama but heres how we will look forward. Hes going to need a forward looking agenda but hes also going to have to knock out these opponents and really differentiate himself. He has to get above 50 to win this thing. Paul how does he do this because so far as strategy on issues is i will go 50 of the way for medicare for all with the public option. I will go part of the way on charter schools. I will reject some of my past, not all of it. That is again a play it safe strategy. How is he going to differentiate himself and the other candidates . Because i think yes to run number one is close enough to being a moderate and number two the only one who can be donald trump. Paul what do you mean close enough to being a moderate . If you are running is a pure moderate he would have held on the hi amendment that he caved on the hi amendment. Paul thats taxpayer funding for abortions. Well get through this primary period and we are not going to be for runaway programs that we will be completely vulnerable in the election but we are going to record highs these times. He also asked to be the person with experience, the poise, the wit the charm to defeat donald trump. If he doesnt have a second element is not going to win. Paul the thing i thought about harassing performance not just in that exchange but overall what she looked like somebody who would take on donald trump. She was articulate and forceful and you can agree or disagree with her political decisions and by disagree with most of them but the point is she looks like someone who could hold her own against trump. Thats the second thing she did well. She broke through personally. She said look im a former prosecutor and i can be really tough on donald trump because im being really tough on joe biden. Paul would you think about Elizabeth Warren . Is she eclipsing Bernie Sanders on the left . I think Bernie Sanders is old saying the same old thing. His rhetoric was the same old thing. So contrary to war in who people havent heard that clearly before. She is rising and i think sanders is slipping. Paul in the end do you think she emerges as the main spokeswoman candidate for the left and competing against biden and harris and if somebody can breakthrough, did anybody else break through . I think mayor pete is the closest to breaking through with the youth vote. I think he was prepped yesterday on the Police Shooting but he comes off as articulate sensible and intelligent and you see in the state polls hes got significant votes. Paul but does he have enough stature to take on trump . Looks are important and he looks small. If people are thinking okay hes going to take on trump . I dont think he can get enthusiasm particularly young voters who are turned off by the older candidates. I think harris can carve out elaine and i think biden has an experience lane and hes a person naked when and sanders and warren are battling it out and im not sure whos going to win but if they dont have a clear when they will not each other out. Paul thank you. Appreciate it. When we come back Health Care Takes center stage at the democratic debate with some candidates doubling down on their call to eliminate private Health Insurance and Promising Health care for undocumented immigrants. Did those present an opportunity for President Trump . Raise your hand if your government plan with her buy fact is, every Insurance Company hopes you drive safely. But allstate actually helps you drive safely. With drivewise. It lets you know when you go too fast. And brake too hard. With feedback to help you drive safer. Giving you the power to actually lower your cost. Unfortunately, it cant do anything about that. Now that you know the truth. Are you in good hands . As a doctor, i agree with cdc guidance. I recommend topical pain relievers first. Like salonpas patch large. Its powerful, fdaapproved to relieve moderate pain, yet nonaddictive and gentle on the body. Salonpas. Its good medicine. Hisamitsu. Openturning 50 opens theuard. Door to a lot of new things. Like now your doctor may be talking to you about screening for colon cancer. Luckily theres me, cologuard. The noninvasive test you use at home. It all starts when your Doctor Orders me. Then its as easy as get, go, gone. You get me when im delivered. Right to your front door and in the privacy of your own home. Theres no prep or special diet needed. You just go to the bathroom, to collect your sample. After that, im gone, shipped to the lab for dna testing that finds colon cancer and precancer. Cologuard is not right for everyone. It is not for high risk individuals, including those with a history of colon cancer or precancer. Ibd, certain Hereditary Cancer syndromes, or a Family History of colon cancer. Maybe ill be at your door soon ask your doctor if cologuard is right for you. Covered by medicare and most major insurers. And who here would abolish the private insurance in favor of a governmentrun planned just a show of hands to start off with. I think we should be the party to keep whats working in fix whats broken. [applause] we should give everyone in this Country Health care is a basic human right for free, but we should also give them the option to buy private insurance. Why do we have to stand for taking away something for people and also its bad policy if every hospital in this country and you ask them one question which is how would it have been for you last year if everyone if your bills are paid at the medicare rate, every single hospital administrators said they would close. Paul health care taking center stage both nights of the democratic debate. That was former maryland congressman john delaney wednesday after massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren and new york mayor bill de blasio said they would be in favor of eliminating private Health Insurance and replacing it with a governmentrun planned like medicare for all. We are back with our panel Dan Henninger, kim strassel bill mcgurn and Kyle Peterson and kyle why was the john delaney intervention important politically . One of the reasons quite frank he is thats the view of democrats broadly so what do you want the new house to to do a health care . 51 of democrats say protect obamacare and not do medicare for all. Hes trying to make the argument that this is what our party stands for. If you think about it hes talking to Public Sector workers in talking to Union Workers who may have had to go on strike to get the benefits they have. There are a lot of people out there in america. Paul 180 Million People at rivered Health Insurance and a lot of those are democratic Union Workers and half by the way great packages. Hes also exposing a political vulnerability. You think these people think of Government Health care would you rather have private insurance toward dmv kind of experience when you pay . I think its crazy but the logic also shows i think it highlights the republican failure. Its amazing to me democrats dont feel embarrassed about health care. Wasnt obamacare supposed to solve all of this stuff that its because the republicans really couldnt get anything done on health care that they are under attack. Paul just so the viewers understand this issue of medicare reimbursement why dont you explain how that works dan. Medicare reimburses hospitals which is what john delaney was getting out at the rate less than patients are paying. Paul and the low costs. A the low cost, 70 to 80 of medicare the full paying beneficiary patients are subsidizing that loss for the hospitals and if we get we them reimburse for everyone at that rate we will go out of business and many doctors have said the same thing. Bernie sanders problem is basic to the problem of health care in america that if you try to provide cheaper medicare or Medicaid Health care for people somebody has to make up the difference in the cost. Bernie would argue if you get everybody, force everybody into a pool field obamacare argument than you would have the same reimbursement for everybody but theres no evidence that work. Bernie incidentally did say he would have to raise taxes on the middle class to make this work. Paul kim the alternative that a lot of the candidates stand for something called the public option as part of obamacare. You could buy into public plan. Right now the private plans are on the exchanges under medicaid which is means tested below a certain income. Even that failed to pass in 2010 as part of obamacare so theres a pretty significant left on that among democrats. Smacks one of the reasons it failed the test as dan was alluding to its very expensive. This is something thats utterly absent from the discussion of both of those debate nights about how everybody pays for any of this. They have this argument somehow because the bigness of the program that you save money and impracticality we have never actually seen outward. I think one of the other people that had one of the great lines on thursday was mayor pete who said look lets do the public option because if it works people obviously gravitate toward it and go to singlepayer but he was basically saying we need to have the courage of our conviction. This is such a Great Program lets see if people sign up for it. Paul the other point is bernie likes to say, Bernie Sanders like to say the republicans call it socialism so dont call this social limbs so if you are simply saying you cant have your private insurance, isnt that the democratic saying yeah thats the state taking away my option to buy what i want. Theres an enormous amount of strategic ambiguity here. Some of the democrats on stage who could cosponsor the medicare for all bill would ask if they would raise if they did not raise their hand. Maybe their supplemental insurance or a fiveyear transition period so they are trying to muddy the waters as much as they can because they know its a losing issue for 180 Million People. Paul i guess it depends on whether donald trump in 2020 could make a case against this. Would he have the detail to explain a . Did need to read something about Free Health Care for immigrants . I think democrats are going to walk some of this back to Kamala Harris tried to do it on the personal insurance. I think they got a on the lam and couldnt help themselves. But this gives the republicans the opportunity to do is make this election a choice rather than a referendum on trump which is what the democrats wanted to make this on still ahead the Supreme Court ends its term with two blockbuster rulings. The takeaways from the census and gerrymandering decisions all played by chief justice genre of savings and service. Whoa. Travis in it made it. Its amazing. Oh is that traviss app . Its pretty cool, isnt it . Theres two of them. Theyre multiplying. No, guys, its me. See, im real. Im real he thinks hes real. Geico. Over 75 years of savings and service. Its been a long time since andrew dusted off his dancing shoes. Luckily denture breath will be the least of his worries. Because he uses polident 4 in 1 cleaning system to kill 99. 99 of odor causing bacteria. Polident. Clean. Fresh. And confident. Paul the Supreme Court wrapping up its term with a pair of blockbuster decisions thursday to the liberal justices joined by chief Justice John Roberts blocking a Citizenship Question on the 2020 census at least for now saying the Trump Administration didnt adequately explain its reasons for adding the questions, another 54 split. This time robert signing with the conservatives. The justices ruled the federal courts were not the place to police partisan gerrymandering. Lets bring in the director of the robber daily beast center for constitutional studies at the cato institute. What is your overall take away about this first Supreme Court term with kavanagh and gore sits it was an unusual term. You characterized the census and gerrymandering cases is lock buster. They probably wouldnt have been any other term of the last decade. It didnt have the regular mix of Huge National news making things and because of that there was a lot more freedom or ideological balance. We have a lot of different types of combinations. 25 20, 54 decision so maybe in the future there will be conservative majority taking the court did not this term. Eight cases had one of the conservatives joining the four justice liberals and a handful of cases that were not. Corsets and kavanagh didnt agree that much. In fact kavanagh lined with kagan about as much or more as with gorsuchs. And kavanagh was in the majority more than anyone else. That means he treaded lightly trying to be more agreeable and lowprofile. Those are the biggest takeaways. Paul kavanagh and gorsuch the difference. How would you define the difference . One area is criminal procedure. Gorsuch is libertarian on that like many things. Scalia was a very good friend of the criminal defendant in terms of the fourth amend protection against search and seizures against vaguely written statues that are just applied willie nelly by prosecutors. Gorsuch joined four times with the liberal bloc in criminal procedure cases to provide the deciding vote. Kavanagh more for pragmatic centrist on those kinds of cases. Paul its interesting because the new judges and the federalist societys define their jurisprudence broadly as a regionalist which means interpreting the constitution as it was originally written and it turns out there are a lot of fridays originalism in these justices are expressing those fridays in different ways. They are and in general regardless of how kavanagh labeled himself or commentators label him he didnt show himself to be terribly original list. He was text list in the sensor reading statutes for what they say and not trying to import some sort of ambiguity that allows the agency or judges to put in their own views but gorsuch is the one who is siding the old texts in the history and the original public meaning. Kavanagh little more pragmatic, definitely more like John Robertson that respect. Paul in my writing concluding there was a little bit of frustration entering some of the dissents from Justice Thomas and Justice Gorsuch about the hesitation of the chief justice to be willing to overturn precedent. They did overturn some precedent including an important case on Property Rights but the chief justice blink. Couple of big cases this year. Am i right in saying theres there some frustration there . I dont know if its about president s but the stare decisis the chief has historically been a defender of interpreting stare decisis and he wrote an opinion Citizens United about specifically why stare decisis isnt precedent. Its more robust on the sense where roberts cobbled together these weird coalitions and not really pleasing anyone, playing more for politician as he was in the obamacare k7 years ago. Thats where the frustration comes for gorsuch. Paul lets talk about the chief justice. He is the swing voter most of these cases except for criminal procedure with gorsuch but the chief is at the center of the court ideologically it seems. Is there some discernible judicial philosophy that you can land on and say this defines where he will come out . Hes not kennedy. You could call a swing vote but medium vote is better although kavanagh was ahead of him in terms of being mostly majority this term. I think that will fizzle out. The thing is nobodys going to accuse him him of evolving or moving to the left of being a squishy moderate like kennedy or being libertarian. Instead hes an institutional list. That is looking at the court as a whole and the Public Perception of the court. He doesnt want the court to be seen as partisan and doesnt want the court to be seen involving itself in politics. He would rather defer to the political process or two other actors and try to cobble together narrow coalitions often working with Justice Kagan for example. Sometimes justice drier and so its not so much is judicial philosophy is not conservative or not contextual as. Hes playing these extra political games like with obamacare and the census question in his way to split the baby. Paul thanks for being here. From executive parent Property Rights to free speech the limu emu doug look limu. A civilian buying a new car. Lets go. Limus right. Liberty mutual can save you money by customizing your car insurance, so you only pay for what you need. Oh. Yeah, ive been a customer for years. Huh. Only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty. At comcast, we didnt build the nations largest gigspeed network just to make businesses run faster. We built it to help them go beyond. Because beyond risk.

Every day, comcast business is helping businesses go beyond the expected, to do the extraordinary. Take your business beyond. But how do i know if im im getting a good deal . I tell truecar my zip and which car i want and truecar shows the range of prices people in my area actually paid for the same car so i know if im getting a great price. This is how car buying was always meant to be. This is truecar. Paul political reaction to thursdays Supreme Court decision was with the Senate Majority leader Chuck Schumer calling the courts gerrymandering a devastating blow to our democracy. This is President Trump tweeted about the high courts ruling on the senses from the g20 summit in japan saying quote seems totally ridiculous that our government and the country cannot ask a basic question of citizenship in a very expensive detailed and important senses. Access to lawyers that they can delay the senses no matter how long until the United States Supreme Court is given Additional Information from which it can make a final and decisive decision on this very critical matter. We are back with Dan Henninger bill mcgurn and Kyle Peterson. So dan what do you make of this term . Are you happy with the new court . I think we should be happy with the new court. Obviously Justice Neal Gorsuch is aligning himself with Justice Thomas. I especially like Justice Gorsuch line when he says that they law is no law. You just cannot write a gloss and dump them off in the bureaucracy and expect that to stand. He intends to put more pressure back on the writers of legislation. I think there probably is a majority on this court to go in that direction. Unfortunately some of the decisions this year probably made the situation worse and we will talk about that. Paul the Citizenship Question case is for some of us. Frustrating because never before as ive looked at the case and some of my Legal Advisers say the court looks so deeply into overruling an Agency Decision that in itself is clearly lawful. The commerce secretary has the power under congress original statute to put the citizens question and by the looks of the motives and said it looked like his explanation was contrived. I think thats outside the law. To me talking about Justice Roberts i think a lot of the problem is he is chief justice. Were he not chief justice i think hed be a lot like justice alito. You mentioned his concerns about the court but there are concerns about the Roberts Court and he has that worry. The Roberts Court and thats a long way from his hearings when he said the responsibility was to call balls and strikes without regard to any other thing. This is a really bad thing that the courts are worried about in their appearance to the good degree that they would rule a different way from what they might rule on the constitution. Paul would you think of the gorsuch kevin na difference . Do you agree with that . I think its interesting to have a dance at my favorite moment was this term across case where the war memorial was being challenged in maryland but people who said they were offended by it and gorsuchs opinion said you can be offended is essentially his point he as for roberts i think all thats fair but sometimes he comes through like in the gerrymandering case with the 54 essentially said this is a political ticket. The constitution gives courts no criteria for defining a fair district map so if you have a problem with gerrymandering you can take it up to congress and you can take it up with your state legislatures. Paul its a great decision because if you let the courts decide and let them get into this they will get for political reasons during out all kinds of maps and then you end up with the courts, people concluding that the port the courts are more political. Thats the importance of the tyrant locations of the decision on the senses. In that case they said it was appropriate to look at that political motivations behind it these decisions that he do that your proceeds lawfully making it decision. Justice thomas said you are opening a pandoras box, what he called pretext which is the ability to file a lawsuit saying we think Something Else is going on in the decision that bureaucracy makes suggesting there will be multiple lawsuits in the future to challenge decisions like that riyadh. Paul the interesting thing more bradley cares this court is a lot less uniformly conservative than the liberals claim. It really isnt. The criminal procedure for example they had a great decision on Property Rights kyle tree at. There was a case where the justices minded them agreed there was too much given to agencies and they disagreed on how far to go. 90 reed in trademark the law went too far and i went to the liberal justices were in the majority in all three cases so theres a lot of variety. Paul is another conservative justice meted . If you look at all that you look at it on the republican appointee. The democrats by and large whatever the outcome is we know what the votes are by and large. The interesting thing is last night known as the democrats who you would appoint to the Supreme Court. I think thats the big question. Paul when we come back President Trump attends the g20 summit in japan. Look at the strategy on both sides of the sanctions and the rhetoric ratchets up. Iran can do whatever they want. Its did you know with vanishing deductible, you can earn 100 off your deductible for every year of safe driving . Sing that. Vanishing deductible, you can. Earn 100. Earn 100 off. Off your deductible. Deductible. For every year of safe driving. For every for every for every year of safe driving. What are you what key are you in . E. No, no, go to g. G will be too high. Not for me. Vanishing deductible. Oh, gosh. Sweet, sweet. We like drip coffee, layovers and waiting on hold. What we dont like is relying on fancy technology for help. Snail mail we were invited to a y2k party. Uh, didnt that happen, like, 20 years ago . Oh, look, karolyn, weve got a mathematician on our hands check it out now you can schedule a callback or reschedule an appointment, even on nights and weekends. Todays xfinity service. Simple. Easy. Awesome. Id rather not. Paul President Trump arriving at the g20 summit in osaka japan. Tensions with iran continued to simmer following the downing of an unmanned u. S. Drone that rate the president announcing the sanctions monday into denying Financial Resources to Supreme Leader ayatollah hominy. This is Administration Officials leaked details of the major cyber attack on iranian installations. We are back with Dan Henninger and bill mcgurn. Bill after this rather notable two weeks what does the president s iran strategy and how do you define that . I dont think we can define it. He waivers from getting accolades from ron paul for not doing anything to please you more hawkish people like me. He pulled back and he pulled back on the attack in response. When please criticize 40 started talking about the obliteration of iran. I think we dont know. I think its important because we dont know what hes going to do to step back and say what is the goal . That goal listed denied the iranians a nuclear weapon. They get a weapon its a big failure and if they dont it will be a success. Paul but he does seem dan to want to get the iranians back into the negotiations to redo the agreement, the 2015 obama agreement for right now the iranians dont have any interest in it. They dont seem to want to come back at all so do we ratchet up the pressure and wait him out . Thats right. As the president just said i have all the time in the world as well. Suggesting he may try to wait them out but the iranians are good. They like negotiations like this that they engage in brinksmanship. They pushed barack obama and john kerry to the brink at the end of that presidency. They forced obama and kerry to make a deal that did have flaws in it. Amy klobuchar it made it it was not a perfect deal. Cory booker admits the same thing but the question is who is going to blink first . The iranians just said this week that they are threatening to pull out of the Nuclear Nonproliferation treaty the way the North Koreans did earlier which means the idea that you would ever make nuclear weapons. This suggests that they do have in mind the purpose of the program is to build nuclear weapons. Paul what they are also saying is they are going to exceed the limits on enriched uranium that they can hold under the 2015 agreement as early as this coming week if that happens it will be a breach of the treaty and then what does the president do and what do the europeans to . They have been trying to stick with the treaty but if iran says we are going to abide by it the europeans come over and put on more pressure. Its a game of chess here and we have to remember the North Koreans are watching. You can bet they are watching in pyongyang if iran can wiggle out of this. I think it goes back to the trump doctrine could i think he came into office campaigning against obama like red lines and he showed hes had strikes and syrian tees shown hes willing to take these oneoff oneoff actions by these also campaigned against the long wars of lush. He doesnt want any longterm strategy. The question is can you achieve your goal without some kind of longterm strategy . I dont think you are going to persuade either north korea or iran on sanctions alone. I think they are going to have to some have some kind of whack at them and teaches them the consequences. Bolivia gave up their consequences because of iraq to. Paul we only have 30 seconds but the question becomes harder because theres only 16 months before the election and iran and others have said we can wait trump out and see if he loses. The u. S. Reportedly engaged in a cyber attack after the shooting down of the planes. The sanctions are hurting iran. Their economy is really hurting. They still have some cards to play against the iranians. Paul thank you gentlemen. We have to take one more break and when we come back hits and and when we come back hits and misses of the hey, who are you . Oh, hey jeff, im a car thief.
