Everybody wants to talk about how Trump's bad about this, Trump's bad about that. The problem is Trump is the figurehead. Every administration that in my lifetime the president is not the only one who's really making the decisions. They don't have all the information. They don't have all, they can't know everything. So they have to have people around them. You had Ehrlichman and God I can't think of the other guys, with Nixon. Haldeman, yeah, Ehrlichman and Haldeman in the Nixon administration. Carter had his people, Reagan had his people, and so on and so forth. They were the real power brokers. They controlled access to the president. They controlled the agenda. So their agenda was the president's agenda. And some presidents have been more forthright and more controlling of the agenda. Some haven't. Reagan comes to mind, George W. Bush comes to mind. You know, Reagan, I think a lot of his staff made a lot of decisions for him, especially in a second term. I think W trusted a lot of folks like Cheney and Rumsfeld and others to make decisions, and he just signed off on them. I think Trump's administration is being run by Stephen Miller and few people close to him. And Trump just signs off on the decisions. It would not surprise me about that one bit, because, and that's not saying that Biden didn't have the same deal with some of his people. Obama and Clinton probably had that same deal, you know. But the thing is, is that Trump spends so much time watching TV, doing his little post on Truth Social, and basically, I really wonder how involved is he really with the government? Because if he's not really that involved, it wouldn't be a first. There's a lot of speculation that Reagan really was pretty much checked out in his second term, and Eisenhower, the same deal with his second term. It would not be a first. But here's the situation. Is someone within his administration basically telling Trump to go along with this, and Trump signs off with it? We've heard for a long time about a connection between Putin and Trump. It's my personal theory that Trump is not in direct contact with Putin. It's not a direct link between Trump and Putin. I think there is a liaison between those two, and I think that person's name is Stephen Miller. And I think that Mr. Miller needs to be investigated, because I think he has links to Putin way before he got in the office. And if it's not Miller, it's somebody else. Because here's the thing. Go back to every Republican president and presidential candidate. Compare and contrast their positions against Trump. Almost all of them are different from what Trump is proposing, or has proposed, or has enacted. Some are similar. The vast majority are not. And I've always wondered, how much of a connection is there really between Trump and Putin? I don't think it's a direct connection, but there are people involved in that. And it's something I'm not particularly fond of. I hope I'm wrong. I sincerely hope I'm wrong, because that would mean that a former KGB agent who is head of the Russian government, and has been for 25 years now roughly, has a controlling stake in our administration. That is awful. And that would be just as bad if the Chinese were doing it. But I'm going to talk more about that and corporate corruption down the road. And don't, and trust me, I haven't forgotten about you Democrats. Don't think you're going to get a pass either. Bye.
