I mean, can you point me and our viewers around the world primary source material . Not the media projection. Not some speculation. Not that even a paul, but a legal document, a legal decision thats legitimizes, sound designation as president elect. So democracy depends on very fragile norms, including that the defeated candidate, graciously acknowledges that he lost the election. And then particularly in a president ial context, the defeated candidate says, congratulations to the winner and says we as americans will unite behind you. Because your success is important to our country. And my government will do everything it can to cooperate with you in a transition. So that when you become president , you can hit the ground running. They do that even knowing that the formal date on which elections are certified by states by which Electoral College votes are cast in state legislatures. And by which those votes are counted in Congress Wont happen. For another 2 months, so if i hasten that it applies to you would be his 2nd, contended the winner as well. And joe biden didnt wait in declaring himself, president elect. Its now in the american issue, so its totally up to him. But i, i mean, my Life Experience informs me that hastiness, especially when it comes to such politically loaded issues, always produces some sort of backlash. They dont mind, but declaring himself president would work well for joe biden. At this point of time. How do you think joe 171000000 americans who bolted for trump would react to that . No, no, joe biden didnt wait because the states, although the other they knew on the day after the election that the analytics told them that there was no way trump could catch up in the states where he was leading. They still waited until the states were called pennsylvania was called and put him over the top in the electoral votes. And so you count going on in georgia. Do you mean to say that the votes in georgia dont matter for deciding the outcome of this elections . Because it since this way, they dont matter for deciding the outcome, because you need 270 Electoral College votes. And he already has 279 and the president should be mature and dignified enough to accept that even if georgia went into his column, he would still lose the Electoral College vote. He would still lose the presidency. There are even the legal claims that theyre making in court, which are completely manufactured. The judges are throwing them out and telling the lawyers you have no evidence whatsoever. Youre coming in here with claims, but with no evidence. So theyre throwing them out, even if those the claims are minor claims. That in fact, that make, could affect 10100 votes, 50 votes, a 1000 votes, it is not enough to make up the millions of votes, language donald trump lost this election. Now speaking about those claims are for irregularities. I think that here again, we see this same type of you know, exchanging mutually exclusive opposites that the democrats and the republicans a so used to playing because as im sure you know, the trump tests, im making an argument that those violations of by spread that fraud nationwide, fraud has taken place. The biden has claimed that there. d is its all one big lie even though there are evidence that there were some irregularities, some deaf people vote if we just dont know because that all of the violations that has not yet. I mean, i have talk of spoken to many election observers and they always say that you would have some mistakes in the course of any election if joe biden indeed wants to unite the country, you wouldnt be bad or for the democrats to say ok if you think there have been some irregularities if you mistrust the integrity of the both. Lets get down to the the bottom of it of this all. Wouldnt that be the best way of reaching out to the skeptics was just, its just really not true. So 1st of all, we have a very, very, very well developed Election Administration procedures implemented by people, democrats and republicans. There are republican secretaries or saved saying there was not irregularities. Now might in california, theres a Republican City councilwoman who also is voting in oregon. Thats illegal that has come out recently. You could call that an election irregularity. But one person double voting is not systemic fraud. It is not fraud at the level that it would change millions of votes and change the outcome of this election professor gag order. And there have been instances and they, theyre well documented. I mean, i wrote post a link to them in the description of this video. They have been instances of people who have long been declared that voting so its not just one instance. There are a couple of them, again, im not an actor, but if youre talking about in this election this year, absent is this a look . It is simply not true. And even if, what if you could show me an instance a one person like this republican woman whos double voting, that is not enough to change electoral the electoral outcomes. There are irregularities at that scale. The lawyers for trump have women to nevada and said, we want to show you that dead people voted. And then by the end of the year they had, by the end of the day, they had filed no papers and theyve still filed no papers. And their evidence is we heard someone say, we heard someone say it is called hearsay. Its called, i dont have direct evidence, but i think someone has direct evidence. Menu fracturing, people who might know someone who might know something is not the does not have the standard of evidence in a u. S. Court of law. Now, speaking about the way forward, as i said in the beginning, it looks far more likely that we are going to see the bidens presidency over the next 4 years than they are there. And there is, there are a lot of speculations about what mr. Trump will get doing and in that time, and one thing for sure is that he is very unlikely to you peacefully retire the way president obama. Indeed. Do you think trump will continue being a challenge for joe biden, even after the official action results an ounce . And if so, how do you think the democrats should be dealing with that kind of challenge . Trump is really undermined democracy in the United States is we can confidence in our, in our elect, he continue doing battle with the next, not only here 1st because that is trump. Trump has one interest and that is trump himself. Thats his only interest is himself. And he is thinking also about his future career after hes president , including whether he wants to continue to be a voice in a politics or media or his business as that 0400000000 dollars and are in danger of failing as his previous bankruptcy bankrupt. Businesses fail. So he will continue to be create difficulties. Yes, hell do it right up until election day. But at that point, his presidency ends by the operation of the constitution. Joe bidens presidency begins and hell take over and hell begin to undo some of the damage that donald trump has done in america and on the world stage. Now ive heard some biden supporters and it could be me and in the think Tank Community suggesting that one of the 1st things joe biden should do when coming to office is to launch some sort of Legal Proceedings against donald trump. And that putting donald trump behind bars and all the airwaves will be and major help or a major factor in ensuring the success of the future administration. Do you agree with that that some sort of legal proceeding a legal challenge should be mounted against trump. When joe biden has said, is that he will let the Justice Department make its own determinations about whether anything should be done. And whoever is attorney general could appoint a special prosecutor and say, you are independent, you make your own assessments and decisions. Donald trump is already facing legal jeopardy in new york state and treasury for nonpayment of back taxes. He may have committed other eve being sued by women who the accused him of rape and assault. So he has plenty of legal problems, and joe biden does not need to put his finger on the scale. Joe biden has said he wants unite the country, and hes not going to waste his time, being vindictive with respect to donald trump. If there are legal consequences for donald trump specie view, or whether theyre criminal, civil, private, or otherwise, he will have to face those himself based on the evidence and the decisions of prosecutors and lead in those cases. But icicle there we have to take a very short break now, but we do get back in just a few minutes and stay tuned. Oh, look forward to talking to you all. That technology should work for people. I robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the 1st law show. Your identification for should be very careful about Artificial Intelligence. And the point is to create trusts. Here on theories, playing with Artificial Intelligence will summon, the demon must protect its own existence. As during the vietnam war, us forces are also bombed to neighboring laos. It was a secret war. And for years the American People did not know. We mounted our so my skin is officially the most heavily bombed country per capita in all of human history. Millions of unexploded bombs still in danger lives in this Small Agricultural country. Jordan, i really dont think going to happen there. Even today, kids in laos full victims of bombs dropped decades ago, is the us making amends for the tragedy in laos, wont help to the people need in that little land of mines. Welcome back to worlds apart with Louis Caldera distinguish the junk professor of law at american university, and formerly a senior military official in the obama and clinton administrations. Professor, youve been very explicit about your endorsement of joe biden, based on security grounds. You argue that donald trump is not fit to be the commander in chief, and maybe thats true when it comes to use the mastic policy. But when you look at that from an international perspective, dont trump for all hes flamboyancy and you may argue incompetence hasnt launched a single new war. Whereas president obama, whom im sure you hold in a very high regard, had at least 3, bloody wars in the being in syria and yemen started it under his purview. Sure. President obama was President Biden, seem like nicer guys. But when it comes to the issues open, war and peace, when it comes to the issues of global security, should we actually focus on the record on the actual record rather than at character the measure of a president success xterm. So 1st on joe bidens, number one task is get control the pen demick, which donald trump failed to do. We are 5 percent of the worlds population and 25 percent of the deaths from the coronavirus is also heavily harmed the u. S. Economy, including 10000000, people still out of work. So, number one, job or job, i get the pandemic under control, get the economy going again and help people who are suffering. Number 2 is rebuild our alliances and our role in the world. Because donald trump has been a disaster, his america 1st policy has turned its back on our traditional alliances in nato, and in the end in asia. And that is what makes the world less secure, not whether theres a fire fight. Here are a fire fight there. If you want to donald trump, the way you money go there, i trying to tell me that 3, bloody wars that i just mentioned made the war more secure. None of trump makes the world less secure when he embraces authoritarians, like kim jong il and like lead member putin, like their dog on in turkey. When he embraces authoritarians, where to in the philippines. When he embraces of the word terriers, who by leaps human rights and act in antidemocratic ways, he makes the world less secure. Because in those individuals, its a name i use is another i met a rake in bracing. Oh, its either and you know, it has or its president obama oversaw the destruction, one of the most prosperous immigrant friendly, stable countries in africa that crisis in and of itself and created. Thats huge immigrant wave into europe. You know that i know that everybody in police a community agrees on that. Thats great. Lets see the rise of far right populism in europe. You know that decision was a finance proportions and youre trying to tell me that whatever i dont know trumps as was more damaging than launching the war against libya since 2001, the war on terror and radical islamic fundamentalism. Not peaceful islamic countries, but those who unleash terror and who started the effort to create a caliphate. Isis. All of those forces have been making the world a much more difficult and dangerous place for, for all, for americans and for, and for others in europe and other party or oh, heres the problem with, with, with trumps turning his back on a traditional American Allies is that it can lead, it can lead to miscalculation on the part of people like you who didnt like she in china like john, that the u. S. No longer has the resolve to stand by its allies. Joe biden, we believe very clear that america stands by its allies, that countries like russia should not miss underestimate our willingness to stand by her to just, you know, anyone exit doesnt mean again, its in the retort, kill phrases. The democrats like could be what exactly did that doesnt mean . You know, he means absolutely not going to be taking russian. Moving into crimea happened under president obamas watch, joe biden was Vice President back then. Did he stand by his allies in ukraine . Do you think it means that countries like russia should not misunderestimated, with things like territory and adventurism that, that will be responded to. And that if you want, if you focus and want to focus on russia, russia did do what it wanted to do when obama was in office. And when biden was by his side, and i dont speak for the administration. And so in due course, all of those issues heres now president will be one that his National Security establishment will address, including the u. S. Continues to oppose russias engagement in the ukraine. You were in the Obama Administration only a few months in that 1090. 00. Obviously, not responsible for what happened to libya, but many of the people who served that administration at who advocated that campaign against. Maybe im talking about susan rice, michele flooring, the oil there are speculated to be considered for a high positions of power in the biden. And mr. Asian, joe biden, by the way, i think, was one of the very few skeptics who opposed that decision. But obviously he is, vision was not he did at that point of time. Do you think this political establishment or his believe or less that less and that is clearly coming back to power it to washington hasnt had enough time to consider what it means by the American Leadership in the world and how this American Leadership should be advanced. Do you think these people who spend last 4 years trying trying to oust, did they have enough time to consider how theyre going to move forward and whether theyre going to stick to the same rules into the same vision that they tried to endorse during the Obama Administration, i think he, i think President Biden will have very seasoned, very experienced individuals helping him navigate the world stage and that what they will do is underpinned by respect for human rights. The rule of law, the spread of democracy. Understanding that we have to have cooperation in global matters, including to address Climate Change to address pandemics, to try to solve problems or they are including in places like syria where are russias support of assad has been a disaster. So, and you just havent asked as if i think if you know that the level of casualties is now might take my eyes much lower than the United States was more actively involved. Would you have imperial people dying on a daily bases . You might consider, since it is a, its a very complex, difficult world to navigate. None of these problems have easy solutions. We have to find ways to build mutual ties, including with countries that have been our traditional adversaries. They may be adversaries. In our geopolitics, our philosophies of governing whose evolution is they may be adversaries because they interfere in our elections and because of their cyber attacks. So one level we have to respond to them in that manner and at other levels, we have to find ways to cooperate in a, in russias military docked doctrine. The United States is not identified as an enemy or adversary. Beach is a big difference from the americans thats changed on the tram back and i think 2018, when russia was formally declared the and adversary g. Think joe biden as president , will continue in the same vein as donald trump seen russia as an adversary. And do you thing russia invitation changes doctrine and approach the United States as indeed in that an enemy, with all the consequences, military strategic planning, consequences that stem from that change of post. I think a country that attacks the United States elections is attacking the United States just as if it was a military attack. The us needs to respond to that in like time and cannot permit that kind of thing and to happen, nor can we permit threats or attacks on our allies in so that so its very, its very important that russia understand that and act accordingly with, with respect to, you know, metaphysical there, im sorry for interrupting yourself and, but its well known that back in 2011, joe biden personally traveled to russia to talk to allied to mere putin, to try to talk him out of running for president. Again. You know, thats as clear an interference in the russian electoral profit bread process as it again gad, i mean, i cant imagine putin traveling to, or, you know, his deputy traveling to washington and telling Joe Biden A Donald trump, what to do. So we have multiple instances of the american interference. I mean, russian elections, but even elections around the world that my question is different. Do yo
