Trump's arrogance
He's setting himself up here as God.
6:48
He's setting himself that I have the power of life and death. I will decide whether Iran is deserving of complete
6:56
destruction or whether they're going to have this wonderful future that I will allow in my graciousness.
7:05
I promise you that's the way it came across to most everybody in that room.
7:09
And how would it not? When when you sit there and you set yourself up above the rule of law, above the US Constitution,
7:18
above any kind of morality, above the even the UN Security Council, above everything and everybody, individual countries, whatever you name
7:27
it, he alone, not even not even the Congress, not even his cabinet, not even anyone.
7:35
I will decide. I have a big decision, said he, about whether I'm going to destroy Iran. And if he goes down that
7:43
path, then that is as illegal, immoral, and unethical as it can get.
7:52
There is no law on the planet whereby the leader of any country can
7:59
just decide on his own that the civilians and the citizens of another country are deserving of death because he says so.
