Welcome dear friends to America first one on one with me your host of action gorgher for my strategist of president trump and member right now of the defense department's national security education board what is gas lighting well it comes from a movie and it has to do with someone trying to convince you that you shouldn't trust your senses here's a perfect example from the man who sadly bears the title commander in chief.

I it sounded like you told us troops they were going to Ukraine. It sounded like he said it was possible the US would use a chemical weapon and it sounded like you were calling for regime change in Russia and we know none of the three occurred.

And you're going to see when you're there. So some of you have been there. You're going to see women young people stand and stand in the middle front of damn tank. It's just saying I'm not leaving. I'm holding my ground.

If chemical weapons were used in Ukraine, would that trigger a military response from NATO?

It would be it would trigger response in kind for God's sake. This man cannot remain power.

You didn't hear him say that. He didn't say those things. Despite the fact we have the footage. Let's talk about all of that and so much more with somebody I've known before he was the first green beret in Congress.

In fact, I campaign for the man. I consider him a patron and a friend. Congress and Mike Waltz Florida's six congressional district. Welcome in studio to one on one. Yeah, you're going to be with you so so much to discuss your now an established author will discuss that in a moment.

But first we have to talk about geo politics. We have to talk about what the man in the White House is doing. He said I didn't say remove put in. I didn't say to the 82nd Airborne. You're going to be in Ukraine.

I didn't say we should use chemical weapons against Putin. Well, we just showed the video. Give us your response to the last five weeks of geo politics. Please let me just talk to our commander in chief right there.

And I struggle a little bit sometimes with the words to come out of my mouth. But look, deterrence depends on two things.

Credible military options, right. The Russians, the Chinese, the United States have to believe that the other side is capable of mutually sure destruction.

But the key component there is the political will to use it. And when you have the commander in chief, the United States of America leader of the free world on the international stage.

We've seen that in our history in a great way, Reagan tear down this wall and other great leaders in this country's history.

But when you see on the international stage in a moment of crisis, the president flip flopping around sending sick mixed signals, confusing our own troops.

Yeah.

And importantly, I think handing Putin additional propaganda victories where he can go back to his people and say, I told you so.

And actually using that to solidify his power. And then to see staffers trying to clean up with the president saying and then him walking back the walk back.

And just then once again, we saw this in the wake of Afghanistan standing for the world and lying about what he said or about what he intended.

It's look, I should say so we should want him to be successful in these kind of situation.

President sadly.

And but this is to a large extent why we are where we are. We're only seven months from Afghanistan.

Yeah.
