00:00

We're now 5 days into our war with Iran

00:02

and things are looking just a little bit

00:05

dicey.

00:07

No one seems to have a clear plan for

00:09

the war or even a clear reason why we

00:11

started it. And apparently America's

00:13

military is even at risk of running out

00:15

of weapons, which is one problem I never

00:18

thought America would have.

00:20

I thought we had an unlimited stockpile

00:22

of those, like spin-offs of Yellowstone.

00:26

Oh, by the way, tune in to Paramont Plus

00:29

for the world premiere of Yellowstone in

00:31

Space.

00:34

But despite all those problems, the good

00:36

news is Donald Trump is in charge, and

00:39

I'm sure he's diligently thought through

00:42

all of the wartime scenarios.

00:45

>> What's the worst case scenario that you

00:47

have planned for in Iran?

00:50

>> Well, I don't know if there's a worst

00:51

case. I guess the worst case would be we

00:53

do this and then somebody takes over

00:55

who's as bad as the previous person,

00:58

right? That could happen. YEAH.

01:02

YEAH. No

01:05

You're just thinking about this now. I

01:08

do 6 months of research before I buy a

01:10

new shampoo.

01:12

Trump's like, I just realized starting a

01:14

war in the Middle East could have some

01:15

downsides, huh?

01:18

So, it's a little disturbing that he

01:20

says it as casually as when you realize

01:21

you've never seen a bird's penis before.

01:30

Do do

01:31

they even have them?

01:34

But Trump's right. You don't want a new

01:36

leader who is just as bad as the old

01:38

one. So, I'm sure the administration has

01:40

a deep bench of candidates ready to step

01:42

up. Right. Right.

01:47

Right. President Trump said some Iranian

01:50

officials his administration was hoping

01:52

could take over have been killed in the

01:54

war.

01:55

>> Well, most of the people we had in mind

01:56

are dead. So, you know, we had some in

01:59

mind from that group that is uh is dead.

02:03

And now we have another group. They may

02:05

be dead also. Okay. Okay. Well, the good

02:08

thing is there's a third group. Oh,

02:10

what's that? They're dead also. And the

02:12

fourth group's dead. And the fifth

02:13

group's dead. They're all dead. I can't

02:15

cannot believe this. You killed all the
