>> Stephen: FOLKS, MY FIRST GUEST IS AN INDEPENDENT

SENATOR FROM VERMONT WHO WANTS TO BE OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

>> Stephen: SIR, GOOD TO SEE YOU, WELCOME BACK!

I'VE GOT TO SAY, YOU'RE LOOKING SPREE, YOU'RE LOOKING GOOD, EVEN

THOUGH -- AND I WANT TO PUT THIS UP, NOT TO BRING UP ANY BAD

MEMORIES OR ANYTHING -- YOU WERE HERE IN SEPTEMBER LAST TIME AND

JUST DAYS AFTER YOU WERE HERE, YOU HAD A HEART ATTACK.

I WANT TO APOLOGIZE FOR HOW TOUGH I WAS ON YOU.

GILLIBRAND WAS HER AND HER KIDNEYS FAILED.

THERE'S A LOT TO TALK ABOUT IN THE WORLD AND THE CAMPAIGN.

I'D LIKE TO START OFF WITH THE RECENT POSSIBLY WAR WITH IRAN.

THE UNITED STATES, JUST TO RECAP, WE SENT A DRONE STRIKE AT

THE PRESIDENT'S COMMAND TO KILL HEAD OF THE QUDS FORCE QASEM

NIKKI HALEY HAS SAID THE ONLY PEOPLE MOURNING SOLEIMANI ARE

HAVE YOU SEEN ANY DEMOCRATIC LEADERS MOURNING SOLEIMANI?

ANYTHING YOU'D LIKE TO SAY BACK WITH NIKKI HALEY RIGHT NOW,

( LAUGHTER ) >> NO, NOBODY I KNOW IS MOURNING

SOLEIMANI, BUT I TELL YOU WHAT, YOU KNOW, STEPHEN, I THINK ABOUT

THE MODERN HISTORY OF THIS COUNTRY, AND I REMEMBER VIETNAM,

THAT WAS MY GENERATION, AND I REMEMBER THE WAR IN IRAQ.

THOSE ARE THE TWO WORST FOREIGN POLICY BLUNDERS IN THE MODERN

HISTORY OF THIS COUNTRY, AND BOTH OF THOSE WARS WERE BUILT ON

POINT OUT THAT CANDIDATE TRUMP AGREED WITH YOU.

>> YEAH, WELL -- >> Stephen: CANDIDATE TRUMP

>> YEAH, BUT HERE'S THE POINT -- THE POINT IS THAT BOTH OF THOSE

WARS WHICH CAUSED SUCH INCREDIBLE SUFFERING IN OUR

COUNTRY -- 59,000 AMERICAN SOLDIERS DEAD AS A RESULT OF THE

VIETNAM WAR, PROBABLY MORE DIED AFTER THEY CAME BACK, A

THE WAR IN IRAQ, 4500 OF OUR PEOPLE, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF

WE SPENT TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS THAT SHOULD BE INVESTED IN

HEALTHCARE, IN EDUCATION, IN INFRASTRUCTURE.

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS SPENT IN

WE WERE TOLD -- WE WERE TOLD THAT SADDAM HAD MASS WEAPONS OF

MASS DESTRUCTION, CHEMICAL WEAPONS TIED INTO AL QUAIDA, ALL

AT THE END OF ALL OF THAT, ALL OF THE DEATH, ALL OF THE

SUFFERING, TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF EXPENDITURES, WE GET BOOTED

OUT OF IRAQ, THEY NO LONGER WANT US THERE.

SO I WILL DO EVERYTHING THAT I CAN TO STOP A WAR WITH IRAN THAT

ADMINISTRATION, AS YOU WAS TALKING ABOUT EARLIER IN THE

SHOW, THE ADMINISTRATION SENT REPRESENTATIVES BOTH IN THE

MILITARY AND FROM THE CABINET TO HAVE A BRIEFING AT THE SENATE

>> Stephen: MIKE LEE CALLED THESE INSULTING.

>> WELL, I AM SO USED TO TRUMP THAT I -- YOU KNOW, AND HIS

ADMINISTRATION THAT NOTHING SURPRISES ME.

( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: ISN'T THAT PART OF

THE DANGER OF THIS ADMINISTRATION THAT WE'RE

AND MIKE LEE IS A CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN WITH WHOM I DISAGREE

WITH ON ALMOST EVERYTHING BUT HE AND I HAD WORKED TOGETHER

BECAUSE MIKE IS MAYBE OLD FASHIONED ENOUGH TO BELIEVE IN

( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) I KNOW THAT IS SOMETHING -- AND

THAT IS SOMETHING THAT TRUMP I THINK HAS NOT YET READ OR

TODAY -- WHICH IS TRUE, I WAS THERE, IN FACT, SIGNATURE RIGHT

BEHIND HIM -- WHEN ASKED BY THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE MILITARY

AND THE C.I.A. IF, IN FACT, TRUMP DECIDES TO ASSASSINATE THE

LEADERSHIP -- THE LEADER -- OF IRAN, WOULD HE HAVE TO COME TO

CONGRESS FOR AUTHORIZATION, AND THEY COULD NOT GIVE A CLEAR

AND HERE IS THE POINT THAT I KNOW THAT EVERYBODY KNOWS THIS,

THE CONSTITUTION IS EXTREMELY CLEAR, IT IS THE CONGRESS OF

UNITED STATES THAT HAS WARMAKING POWERS, NOT THE PRESIDENT.
