One of the the weirder parts is how the
00:00:02
the administration has behaved. Donald
00:00:04
Trump was dancing last night or golfing
00:00:06
and stuff like that. So, the visuals
00:00:07
aren't very good and the DoD has now
00:00:09
barred press photographers from Iran
00:00:12
briefings after publishing photos Peg
00:00:13
says staff found unflattering according
00:00:15
to the Washington Post. He looks like a
00:00:17
fatuous popping jay at all times. In
00:00:19
this case, the lack of seriousness about
00:00:22
something that's very serious seems
00:00:24
problematic. The notion that these guys
00:00:25
can't handle the images of Pete Hex, it
00:00:28
shows you're allocating your capital in
00:00:30
the wrong places. That's not what you
00:00:32
should be thinking about or worried
00:00:33
about.
