And truman interrupts again and says, well, i know. never. at that point, oppie understands that harry truman doesn t understand anything about the physics of this weapon. and oppenheimer, at that point, says exactly the wrong thing. rhodes: he really offended president truman by saying, mr. president, i have blood on my hands. (explosion rumbling) bird: this is exactly the wrong thing to say to the guy who made the decision to drop two such bombs on two japanese cities. he was trying to impress truman. he thought it was something that truman would like to hear, and he got that wrong a lot. i mean, oppenheimer was very charming to a lot of people, but he was often not charming to leaders and people who had power over him. wellerstein: truman didn t believe that anybody s responsibility was greater than his.

David: and the fine point, truman didn t actually fire them, but how did he get them out? by making their lives intolerable. david: which sounds familiar. and the presidents always win going back to woodrow wilson, world war i. i think what he would like is a rate cut and i think in the next few weeks there will be a rate cut, but he would like 100 basis points and powell will only give him 25. david: deirdre, guess what? the markets want, too, they would be happy with a full 1% rate drop, right? i feel that friday was all about president trump grabbing the mic from fed chairman jay powell. because jay powell was out in jackson hole, wyoming, supposed to be the day we all talked about fed policy and what they were doing and i think president trump just thought, you know what? this isn t going fast enough. it s not effective enough.
