Speaker 1: Everybody is running on this Thursday, October 8th. I'm Steve Schmidt. This is The Warning. Donald Trump is running. Marco Rubio is running. Kimberly Guilfoyle is running. And Pete Hegseth is running, if that's what you call it. Look, wait for it. Yes, he's getting passed again and again. This the architect of the failed war who went to San Diego and lost control of himself emotionally yet again in front of America's sailors and Marines coming home from one of the longest deployments in naval history.
00:00:51
Speaker 2: And there were a few folks in the media who tried to turn the USS Abraham Lincoln into some sort of a symbol. a symbol of dysfunction, or a symbol of low morale, or a symbol of a failed mission. And what I look out at right here, and when I talk to your leadership, and I have had a chance to talk to a number of you, I know it's the exact opposite, which is actually what the media does so often.
00:01:17
Speaker 1: Pete Hegseth beclowned himself. Now, Donald Trump, who's trying to put his name on everything, trying to build a victory arch, threatening to knock down the Kennedy Center, this man actually believes, is so fantastically deluded that He has no one around him to laugh at him when he suggests that one of his golf clubs will be the next Camp David. We have heard that you want to turn part of your golf club in West Com into a retreat for future presidents similar to Camp David. Are you going to call it Camp Donald?
00:02:01
Speaker 3: Well, it's already called Trump International. It's one of the best golf courses in the world. So it's It's all built. It's been in operation for over 20 years. It's been very successful. And everybody wants to go there. And the advantage is, this was suggested to me by the military and Secret Service, there are no high buildings looming over it. There are no houses on it. So you don't have houses. We have to inspect rooms. It seems that all presidents play golf.
00:02:31
Speaker 1: This will never happen. He will not keep the Qatari jet. The East Wing will be restored to what it was and not a trace of his ballroom or his helipad or his flagpoles or the golded, gilded crap will remain. Every inch of the desecrated space will be restored. Now, something that will never be restored as Kimberly Guilfoyle's face or reputation. Look at her expression here standing with Marco Rubio, who though remaining still is certainly running, running from the truth, running from reality. This is the American ambassador to Greece who is qualified for the job after being fired from Fox News in a sexual harassment scandal on the basis of once having banged the person who picked J.D. Vance to be the Vice President of the United States. That, of course, is the newlywed Donald Trump Jr., he of the drone business, he the war profiteer. At any rate, she was living the high life at Mar-a-Lago. She was dancing and partying and having so much fun. And when the engagement ended, the high life ended. And so she was shipped off to Greece and preposterously confirmed by the Politburo, that is the US Senate. And now she joins the pantheon of the most corrupt Trump officials combining venality with stupidity. And it is extraordinary, like watching Pete Hegseth run. At any rate, when it comes to Kimberly Guilfoyle and the Trump donor who was bribing her a million dollars to get political favors, an audit stopped and some other things, but was unsatisfied with the service. Kimberly Guilfoyle demanded payment $ 100, 000 up front for her Amex bill. Now, here's the best part. He reacted to this saying, I've sent you $ 300, 000 and not a single favor I got. Rod Bogoyevich went to prison again. Why exactly? We'll come back to that. So at any rate, Kimberly Guilfoyle like an experienced mobstress in the Trump orbit. And remember, she was a fundraiser. And what her benefactor put down, she didn't like because she knew it was what? E-mail. V-I-D-E-N-C-E. Evidence of B-R-I-B-E-R-Y. Bribery. Evidence of bribery. Don't paper this. Don't write this down in the ledger. It's dangerous. And so now the Wall Street Journal has published the email exchanges of the open air corruption. And you know what? Kimberly Guilfoyle still has a job standing next to little Marco, who is affronted that the press has dared to ask him while standing on foreign soil. He is the secretary of state after all. and I think the president of Venezuela and Cuba, according to Trump. But at any rate, for daring to ask about the implicated, corrupt American ambassador to Greece, who's running away from reality.
00:06:47
Speaker 2: Yeah, guys, let me tell you something, okay? You guys are going to ask me if.
00:06:50
Speaker 1: You're going to ask me again in Portugal.
00:06:52
Speaker 2: I know the game, okay?
00:06:53
Speaker 1: The game is someone gives information to a newspaper or a media outlet. The media outlet reports it. You immediately turn to me and say, I need you to respond to our reporting. That's not the way the process works.
00:07:03
Speaker 2: Our job is not to respond every time someone decides to give the media something without.
00:07:07
Speaker 1: Any advance warning, without having any chance to look at it and see.
00:07:11
Speaker 2: What's in there. That's not the way you run an organization, and that's not a serious way to conduct the policy of our country. So I'm not going to comment on a story that literally posted a few hours ago. I get the game. I've been in this for a long time. Within hours, some member of Congress will write you a letter demanding you answer questions to something we've never seen before.
00:07:28
Speaker 1: I don't even know if it's true or not true. So it's just not going to work that way. Like Trump, like Rubio, but not like Kegseth, who's just getting run by. And in the case of the sailors in San Diego, they just wanted to run to their families. But first... They had to endure more abuse at the hands of their leaders, like the American people are forced to endure more abuse by the hands of their president, by their ambassador to Greece, who dared to suggest in our name that she would overthrow the Greek government.
00:08:10
Speaker 2: Shame.
00:08:11
Speaker 1: On the United States of America for tolerating someone with the stench of Kimberly Guilfoyle ever running around anywhere in the world with the title ambassador. God help us.
