Hungry now. Now? What about now? Whenever it hits you, wherever you are. Grab an O. Henry bar to satisfy your hunger. With its delicious combination of big, crunchy, salty peanuts covered in creamy caramel and chewy fudge with a chocolatey coating. Swing by a gas station and get an O'Henry today.

Oh hungry, oh Henry. During the meeting yesterday, when you decided to call Vladimir Putin, what was the reaction among the other people in the room and what was President Putin's reaction to like being brought into a phone call in the middle of your meeting? Well, I think they expected it. I didn't do it in front of them. I thought that would be disrespectful to President Putin. Are you kidding me right now? This is what weakness looks like. Just take a step back. Trump is scared to disrespect Putin after Putin's disrespected Ukraine, every European country, international law, and the United States. Republicans try to act like they are the patriots, like they love America, but they act like America is weak. America has the strongest military, and Russia is literally a gas station. Russia said they were going to get to Kiev in three days.

That was three years ago. Russia is in a weak position, and Donald Trump is too scared to disrespect or stand up to them. So Trump did an interview with Fox and Friends this morning, only about 24 hours after he met with Zelensky and other European leaders. In this interview, he spreads Russian propaganda verbatim. And you can notice a direct increase of his Russian talking points ever since his three-hour closed-door meeting with Putin. He is now talking relentlessly about mail-in ballots being fraudulent, elections being rigged. He's talking relentlessly about Ukraine being the person who started this war. He has taken talking points from Putin, and now is just regurgitating them on the national stage.

So let's finish this clip of Donald Trump recalling his phone call yesterday. And then I want to show you some more really awkward, awkward moments. Literally, the Fox hosts have to cut off the show because of how awkward it gets. I didn't do it in front of them. I thought that would be disrespectful to President Putin. You know, I wouldn't do that because they have not had the warmest relations. And actually, President Putin wouldn't talk to the people from Europe. I mean, that was part of the problem.

So you stepped out of the office to make the call? They had no communication with the White House for years as people died, years with Biden and his people. No communication. Putin told me years. It was years that he didn't speak to him. There is a reason for this. Okay. So back in World War II, Winston Churchill had a rule that you do not negotiate or even talk to Hitler. You don't even talk to Hitler because if you do, he will trick you. he will try to get you to sign a deal, and then he will break the treaty. Like he broke multiple treaties. When you're dealing with bad faith dictators, you don't embolden them.

So what we did is we froze Putin out of the global order after he invaded Crimea back in 2014. We said the G8 is no longer the G8. It is now the G7 because Putin cannot be in this coalition while he's invading countries. Then when Biden took office, he did meet with Putin in 2021, but then after Putin started the invasion in 2020, 22, he was frozen out of the global order again, and this is why. The only way to end this war in a long-term way is to inflict maximum damage on Vladimir Putin and make it such that the cost of continuing the war is too much for him. You do that through sanctions. You do that through arming Ukrainians. You do that through strength. You don't do that through weakness. You don't do that by getting Putin on the phone and just like chatting with him once a month and seeing what his opinion is. No, no, no. You only start the conversation. The starting point of the conversation has to be after a ceasefire. So after the killing stops, then you can start the long-term peace talks. And that's what Trump's naivete is, you know, forgetting. He thinks that he can get Putin to do a long-term ceasefire or peace deal. It's not going to happen.

Anybody from the White House. And it was a long time that he didn't speak to anybody from Europe. No, it's a fractured relationship. And when I came in, I always had, despite the Russia, Russia, Russia-Russia hoax. I'm sorry. I'm sorry to keep pausing it. The reason why it is a fractured relationship is because Russia, I think, invaded their next-door neighbor. It's not a fractured relationship because the U.S. wants to be mean to Russia because we just, it's not like Russia as the nerdy kid who were pushing out of the table. No, Russia is literally a mean bully who nobody wants to talk to. There's a reason why all of the European leaders sitting in front of you hate Putin. There's a reason why the people on Putin's border all hates him. God,

I just wish they would be like, Trump, with all due respect, sir, you're an idiot. Can any of these leaders say that, please? It truly was a very dangerous thing for our country. But despite that, I maintained a very good relationship. I mean, you saw that when he got off his plane, I got off my plane. There's a warmth there that you can't. You know, there's a decent feeling. And it's a good thing, not a bad thing.

People would say, oh, that's such a terrible thing. It's not a terrible thing. You know what? We've got the most nuclear weapons in the world and the most powerful. He's got second. So can you describe for us how that happened? Did you just announce that you were going to go into the other room to make the phone call? And then you got up and left and then came back.

I think they sort of knew I was at the end of the meeting I was going to call President Putin. And President Putin expected it. Dude, that is like the worst nightmare of European leaders. Imagine you have spent the past decade trying to keep this dictator at bay. So you go to the United States, which is supposed to be, you know, an ally, a safe haven, somewhere where Putin isn't looming over your shoulder. And then right when you sit there and just open your heart about what you've seen, the president decides to relay everything that you just told him to Vladimir Putin.

That is just so sickening. We have a president spreading Russian propaganda verbatim. And he was there. Now, by the time I called him, it was one o'clock in the morning in Russia. Russia is a big place. You know, they have 11 time zones, I believe, nine or 11, but I think it's 11. But Mr. President, 11 times zone. That's a lot of time zone.

So it was late, it was like 1 o'clock in the morning, but he was, he picked it up very happily. Sure, he works very hard. I'm sure. I'm sure Putin picked up the phone very happily, very, very happily. Let me play you this clip of Donald Trump spreading Russian propaganda and blaming NATO for being invaded. This is just victim blaming. It's straight up victim blaming. NATO is a defensive alliance. NATO does not take over countries. NATO is nobody's enemy.

The only way NATO would be your enemy is if you plan to invade NATO countries. That's the only way NATO would be your enemy. So when Putin looks at NATO as the enemy, somebody who's going around, taking countries over, that's because he wants to be the one who's expanding territory. In fact, NATO doesn't take countries over. Countries have to agree to join NATO. Then NATO has to agree to have that country. Then it has to go for a vote among all. It has to be, it's like a multi-pronged process.

There is no NATO invasion of countries or anything like that. Let's watch this clip of Donald Trump just spreading Russian propaganda saying that Ukraine started this war and that Ukraine can end this war. This is straight from Putin's mouth. Is there like an earpiece of Putin's telling him this stuff? Mr. President, did y'all discuss any land swaps yesterday? Because we've talked a lot about the Donbass region, and what was the feeling in the room? What did the other leaders say about this?

Well, they understand. Look, everybody can play cute and this and that. But, you know, Ukraine's going to get their life back. They're going to stop having people killed all over the place, and they're going to get a lot of land. But this was a war, and Russia is a powerful military nation. you know, whether people like it or not, it's a powerful nation, it's a much bigger nation. It's not a war that should have been started.

You don't do that. You don't take on a nation that's ten times your size and, you know, military experts look. Look, if it wasn't for... What? Ukraine did not take on Russia. Ukraine never took on Russia. So Donald Trump's entire framework here is that this war could have been prevented. Yeah, any war can be prevented if you just lose right away.

He's like, this war could have been prevented. if Ukraine would have just given up all of its land right away. Sorry, I'm getting a little bit worked up, but nothing pisses me off more than seeing the president of the United States repeat propaganda from our biggest enemy. And of course, other things piss me off. All the topics that we cover, like ICE Immigrations, I'm not trying to downplay that,

but something about seeing Trump, spread Russian propaganda, really digs me deep down because my generation is going to be cleaning this up for decades. I'm 22 years old, and I just think about the long-term effects of having a president spread lies, undermine democracy. Meanwhile, Putin is spending not billions, not tens of billions, but they are spending trillions of dollars on bot infrastructure to divide Americans. That's why this channel, what we do here, I view as a rebuttal to that. We spread the truth every day. We fact-checked the

lies and we continue to punch back. If you want to, if you want to join the community, make sure you hit the subscribe button below. I keep getting comments and say, you've earned my sub-adam, keep telling the truth. I love you guys more than you know. And let's finish this quote. military equipment. We make the greatest military equipment in the world, and we gave them, you know, whatever. They took probably a lot of money, too, but they had tremendous, you know, they had the Patriot missile, which is the best in the world. All the equipment, we make the best equipment in the world by far. Everyone else is like, nothing. So we gave them a lot of equipment. Now, with that said, the Ukrainian soldiers were brave as hell, because it's fighting a force that's much, much bigger.

Dude, is this guy just saying whatever the fuck he wants to say? He just said one second ago that Ukraine should not have taken out a country 10 times bigger, which directly implies that Ukraine should have just given up all of their territory when Russia invaded. And then he says that the Ukrainian soldiers are very brave. It's just all incoherent. He is losing his mind. Yesterday, he said he had to use his license plate at the voting booth. This dude said he goes to the voting booth and uses his license plate.

Let's watch this clip of Donald Trump saying that Ukraine can't. be accepted to NATO. Again, Russian propaganda. Russia tries to say that the only reason this war started was because of NATO. They're trying to blame some third party coalition for Putin's imperial ambitions. I don't think it's going to be a problem. I think if a deal is made, you know, famous last words, right? But I think if a deal is made, I think Russia's had it. They've all had it. And for a very extended period of time, I don't think there'll be a problem. But there'll be some form of security. It can't be NATO because that was a, a, a, you know, That's just not something that would ever, ever happen.

He couldn't. They couldn't do that. Who would want that? I mean, if you were Russia, who would want to have your enemy, your opponent sitting on your line? You don't do that. So it was always thought that Ukraine was sort of a buffer between Russia and the rest of Europe. And it was. It was a big, wide buffer.

Everything worked out well until Biden got involved. This infuriates me a lot. You know, just yesterday, we hired our. our lead policy advisor, Micah Irfan. I'm going to introduce him to the channel soon, but our lead policy advisor is a first-year law student, and what he's going to do is help us with deep, deep research. So I think something that we value a lot on the Adamachler channel

is making sure that we have the facts on our side, making sure that we are researching heavily 24-7. When I go into these debates, we do a lot of research beforehand, and as I'm getting busier and busier, I decided to hire somebody so that they can help me research, so that I have a team helping me craft things, and all the way doesn't just fall on me. So first of all, I want to say thank you to you all for making this possible.

But the reason I'm bringing this up is because we're going to make a full, long-form video breaking down the Ukraine situation and why Trump is falling for Russian propaganda, just verbatim, falling for it perfectly, hook, line, and sinker. I want to play this final clip. This is where it gets really awkward. At the end of the interview, Donald Trump begins to out Ainsley Earhart, who is the blonde woman in the middle. She's a Fox News reporter for being in a relationship with Sean Hannity. Lawrence Jones tries to change the topic This is one of the weirdest things I've seen

So the president spends almost two minutes Going in depth about the relationship Of people on Fox News He spends almost two minutes doing this And it gets increasingly awkward There's multiple clips Let me play the first one There's a guy named Sean Hannity

He might take a very lovely young lady That he knows very, very well To dinner in Washington And they don't have to They don't have to And she's sitting right next to by the way That's right. But Mr. President.

I don't want to get him in trouble, so I better explain it exactly. We don't want any secrets here. They're desperately trying to change the conversation. But that's the greatest relationship. I hope I'm not breaking into any news. This could be the biggest, hey, this could be the most important thing I said. But let me tell you, those are two great Ainsley and Sean, great people. And when they go out to dinner, I don't want to see them get mugged.

Now they can go out. They can hold hands. They can walk down. Did you see her nervously? playing with her hands. On the street, they're both superstars. I want to know who makes more money because she's got to be making a lot. Mr. President, we're so happy for them.

But on a serious note, Mr. President, when you had those world leaders. Okay, so he tries to change it to a serious note. Immediately after this, they cut the interview. They ended it. They said, well, thanks for coming on. The government. Well, President Trump, we want to thank you so much for joining us this morning. We know that you have lots of other wars around the world that you need to end.

I can pretty accurately guess what happened when this segment was over. I've been on some of these shows, and when something intense like this happens, I bet you, Ainsley in the middle, and Lawrence on the left, they're probably like, you make that face. You go, like that was intense as hell. Like the president of the United States is blasting your relationship on live TV. I don't really feel bad. You get hoisted by your own partard when you help this person gain power. And yeah, he's going to call you out. I'm going to leave it there.
