I would
say this about
Zelensky
yeah to
the extent
he's in Ukraine
good man
you know
George
W Bush
fled Washington on 9 11
I live there
with three kids
and he
ran away to some Air
Force base in South Dakota
and I thought that
was cowardly
and I said so
at the time
and I meant
was I attacked
for saying that
and I wrote a column
about it
New York magazine
right then
had a column
hard to believe
but I felt that
I felt that
like that's
I think
the prerequisites of
leadership are
really basic
the first is
caring about
the people
you lead
that's No. 1
you know
deep in
the way
father cares
for his children
an officer cares
for his troops
a president
should care
for his
people
and and that
leads inexorably to
the next
requirement
which is
bravery
physical
courage
and I believe in that
and I'm
not like
some tough guy
but I just think
it's obvious
if you're in
charge
you know
I'm at my house
and I feel like
someone broke in
I'm not gonna
say to my wife
hey baby go
go deal with the
home invasion
I'mma deal with it
cause I'm dad
okay so
if you're
the president of a country
and your capital city is
attacked
as ours was
at the
Pentagon
and you
run away
on the
Secret Service
told me to
bitch are
you in
charge
