  Speaker 1: Would and should the US actually commit US troops to
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: defend Taiwan.
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: You know, I think that.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: This is such a you know, I think that.
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: This is a.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: This is of course, a very long standing policy of
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: the United States.
• 0:25
  Speaker 4: AOC taking heat after that fumbling Munich earlier this month,
• 0:28
  Speaker 4: but now she's pointing the finger at President Trump and
• 0:31
  Speaker 4: her critics for a series of verbal stumbles and policy missteps.
• 0:34
  Speaker 4: Let's bring in Kayle McGee white Fox News contributor and
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: Steve Boat Institute fellow, and Megan Hayes, former Biden director
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: of message planning. Ladies, good to see you this afternoon.
• 0:42
  Speaker 4: So she took to Instagram over the weekend to say, Hey,
• 0:45
  Speaker 4: it's not me, it's you. Listen to what she said.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: If you think that I don't understand foreign policy because
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: out of hours of discourse about international affairs, I pause
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: to think, though one of the most sensitive geopolitical issues
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: that currently exist on curse, I'm afraid the issue is
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: not my understanding, but rather the problem is perhaps you've
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: gotten adjusted to a president that never thinks before he
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: speaks and doesn't care about the implications of his words
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: before he speaks.
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: On matters like these people say that's the Instagram equivalent
• 1:25
  Speaker 4: of a midnight drunk dial complete with snoring fiance. What
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: do you think of that?
• 1:32
  Speaker 5: I mean, I think that when you go to these
• 1:33
  Speaker 5: conferences abroad, you need to come and you need to
• 1:35
  Speaker 5: have your reduction in a row. They're extremely serious events.
• 1:38
  Speaker 5: People there have been studying these policies and are complete
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: experts in this long past members of Congress, and I
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: just think when you go, you just need to come
• 1:48
  Speaker 5: correct or don't go. You're representing the United States, regardless
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: of party, you represent the United States, and I just
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: think that we should expect better.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: I thought it was interesting, she said, the fact that
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: I took a moment to think about it, that is
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: a question. You don't even need to think about it.
• 2:00
  Speaker 4: The answer is thank you very much for allowing me
• 2:02
  Speaker 4: the chance to change American policy. But American policy has
• 2:05
  Speaker 4: been long standing tradition of strategic ambiguity, and I'm not
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: about to change that here and now. That should be
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: top of mind.
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: Right She went to a security conference and was absolutely
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: shocked that she was asked a question about one of
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: the biggest security related stories in the entire world. But
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: I do think that it's telling that she ran to
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: Instagram later to complain about the fallout, because it shows
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: that she's comfortable on social media where she is frequently praised,
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: and she's able to speak into this leftist echo chamber
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: that she's created for herself. And she was shocked when
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: she went to the security conference and was actually asked
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: real life questions about real life policies that affect a
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: lot of people. And so when she couldn't just immediately
• 2:43
  Speaker 3: pivot to well, we have to fight the oligarchy or
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: we have to implement democratic socialism, she just totally fell
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: apart and then run back to the exact same place
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: where she's comfortable.
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: I mean the fact that for yours in the background
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: going aw, it's just priceless. I mean, you couldn't have
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: gone to a different room. Got to talk about Gavin
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: News because he was with Andre Dickens, the mayor of Atlanta,
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: the other day where he was trying to relate to
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: the audience and said.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: This, I'm not you know, I'm not trying to impress you.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: I'm just trying to impress upon you. I'm like you,
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: I'm no better than you. You know, I'm a nine
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: sixty SAT guy, and you know and I'm not trying
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: to offend anyone, you know, trying to act all there have.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: You got nine forty, but literally a nine sixty sat guy,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: I cannot you you've never seen me read a speech
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: because I cannot read a speech.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: Which prompted this response from Nicki Minaja on acts. His
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: way of bonding with black people is to tell them
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: how stupid he is and that he can't read. He's
• 3:50
  Speaker 4: not just telling them that they're all probably stupid and
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: probably can't read. He's literally slowing down his speech to
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: make them understand the words that are coming out of
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: his mouth as if they're children. That means he really
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: believes they're slow. He's not just saying that he didn't misspeak.
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: He believes it. When I first mentioned it to you,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: you had this look of horror on your face.
• 4:08
  Speaker 5: Well as someone he used to work for, someone who
• 4:10
  Speaker 5: was gaff prone, and we got ourselves in a lot
• 4:12
  Speaker 5: of these situations. I have respect for him that he's
• 4:15
  Speaker 5: out there and he's talking to people and he's trying
• 4:16
  Speaker 5: to relate to them. But this is why you go
• 4:19
  Speaker 5: on book tours before you run, because you get to
• 4:21
  Speaker 5: make these mistakes and you get to you know. Do
• 4:23
  Speaker 5: I think that he's being racist, Absolutely not. Do I
• 4:25
  Speaker 5: think that he meant how it's being received, Absolutely not.
• 4:27
  Speaker 5: But the fact of the matter is that's what came across,
• 4:30
  Speaker 5: and those are the things that he needs to work
• 4:31
  Speaker 5: on if he wants to run for president and be effective.
• 4:33
  Speaker 5: But I do think it's telling that the way that
• 4:35
  Speaker 5: he thought he could relate to the audience was talking
• 4:37
  Speaker 5: about how stupid he supposedly was, or how illiterate he's
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: claiming to be. I get the whole relatability here, but
• 4:44
  Speaker 5: I mean it's sort of the bigger tree of low expectations.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: You're telling on yourself a little bit when you're saying
• 4:49
  Speaker 5: that the only way I can relate to the audience
• 4:51
  Speaker 5: is by making myself a pere dumber. I don't disagree
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: with you. It was horrible.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: There you go.
• 4:58
