Who is Mark Weber. He's a self 6 00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:20.559 made business executive here to help you find your success 7 00:00:20.679 --> 00:00:23.920 from the New York City projects to the Avenue Montaigne 8 00:00:23.960 --> 00:00:27.359 in Paris. His global success story in the luxury world 9 00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:30.480 of fashion is inspirational. He's gone from. 10 00:00:30.359 --> 00:00:32.960 Clerk to CEO twice. 11 00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:37.039 Mark is classic proof that the American dream is alive. 12 00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:41.359 And well, here's your host of Always in Fashion, Mark Weber. 13 00:00:41.439 --> 00:00:45.520 Mark Weber, We live in interesting times. We live in 14 00:00:45.560 --> 00:00:50.759 a time where everything's changing now. Everyone loves change, Everyone 15 00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:54.200 embraces change until, of course, we ask them to change, 16 00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.039 and then they either can't or they won't. We do 17 00:00:57.119 --> 00:01:00.119 live in exciting times. We live in confusing times, a 18 00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.399 time where we can't navigate clearly because we don't know 19 00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:06.519 just where we're going. But at the moment, with the 20 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:09.359 government in place, maybe we're getting a better idea of 21 00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:12.319 where we're going. You never really know. With the advent 22 00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:15.400 of AI with a change in all our communication habits 23 00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:23.879 with UAPs, unidentified anomalist phenomenon or unidentified aerial phenomenon. Are 24 00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.799 we alone? Do we know? Are we going to learn 25 00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:30.920 something soon? It's a question. And then, of course Trump 26 00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:37.239 not Trump watchers or sneakers, Trump change, elon musk change. 27 00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:42.079 We're living in interesting times. Feels like the best of times, 28 00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:44.959 not the worst of times. I'm often happiest though, when 29 00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:48.519 I'm observing, and there's much to observe right now. Well, 30 00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.519 I would say the Super Bowl reminded us of the Goat, 31 00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:54.640 the greatest of all time. That it can't be hyped, 32 00:01:54.680 --> 00:01:57.680 it must be earned. A time for shopping habits to 33 00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:01.159 change everything Amazon versus everything that was in the malls. 34 00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.680 Women are dressing up, men are dressing down. What's the 35 00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:07.879 future of mankind went out in sync? Women look their best, 36 00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:12.199 men look their worst. Is our species doomed? What's going on? 37 00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:15.759 I often said I don't mind spending money, I hate 38 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.520 wasting it. I hate wasting a penny, even though penny's 39 00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:21.719 not worth a penny any longer. I always looked up 40 00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:24.240 to the government. I trusted it to do the right thing. 41 00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:27.639 Now in the world, it's clear that everything the government 42 00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:31.280 has done proved their best at throwing away our money. 43 00:02:31.319 --> 00:02:35.639 There's no oversight, no preparation, no common sense, hidden funds 44 00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:39.280 for causes that don't help America, no care at all 45 00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:41.599 for where our money goes, where has been spent. We're 46 00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:45.680 a wasteland for money. We're stupid. We live in interesting times, 47 00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:50.120 the time to enjoy time, the time to understand, to explore, 48 00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:53.479 a time to question. I've had great times. I've had 49 00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:55.919 good times. I've had annoying times. We all have. But 50 00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:58.560 in my case tonight, I want to talk about the 51 00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:00.800 state we find ourselves in. And I don't mean New 52 00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:03.800 York State, I mean our state of affairs. We have 53 00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:07.479 a new president. He's sninking outside the box. Actually, he's 54 00:03:07.520 --> 00:03:10.840 snaking outside this world. He's being forward at every turn. 55 00:03:11.159 --> 00:03:13.639 Forget the fact that what he says is making sense. 56 00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.879 Forget the fact that he's assembled a brilliant and loyal team. 57 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:19.680 He's applying lessons he learned from the last time he 58 00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:22.199 was president. Forget the facts, even though they're right in 59 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:30.599 our face. Somehow or another. We can't accept change, any change. Listen, Democrats, 60 00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:35.000 did you see Schumer and Maxine Waters dancing the other day? 61 00:03:35.159 --> 00:03:38.199 We will win. We will. You had to be embarrassed 62 00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:41.599 for them. The Democratic oversight, let's be honest, has been 63 00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:45.840 a disass America voted You're out, Sit down, Think before 64 00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:49.319 you talk, Think before you talk. Now. I have a 65 00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.080 Democratic history in my family. I come from a working 66 00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:56.319 class family. Although today the Republicans are now the common 67 00:03:56.400 --> 00:04:00.599 sense party for everyone. The Democrats, they have to ties 68 00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:04.439 to this nonsense, no woke, no champions in illegal anything, 69 00:04:04.919 --> 00:04:10.240 hold politicians aliable for incompetence, Please keep us safe. Can 70 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.960 you handle the truth? The truth is we all need 71 00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:16.240 to be observant. Common sense is not so common. We 72 00:04:16.360 --> 00:04:19.040 need to talk about doing what's right. Which brings me 73 00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:22.879 to Trump. And with Trump comes my lawyer, my co host, 74 00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:24.560 my son, Jesse Webber. 75 00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:26.279 Hey, Jesse, I like it here. 76 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:29.720 I like it here you talking politics. I always love 77 00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:32.120 when you talk politics. I always tell you to talk 78 00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:35.160 about politics. It's relevant, it's every day. It's a nice 79 00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.639 little get away from the business. And I like when 80 00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:39.680 you jump into this field. 81 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:42.879 Well, Cez, because I have no idea what I'm talking about. 82 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:43.959 Who does? 83 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.160 Who does know what they're talking about when it comes 84 00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:49.199 to politics, And it's not true, it's not true. Just 85 00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:52.480 because you're not a politician doesn't mean you don't have 86 00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:55.800 a good perspective on the world, especially when we're talking 87 00:04:55.839 --> 00:04:59.839 about the economy, trade imbalance, where goods are coming from. 88 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.079 He did a whole episode last week on China. I 89 00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:06.439 think your insight is probably more beneficial than you know. 90 00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:07.079 Joe Schmoe. 91 00:05:08.160 --> 00:05:10.560 Joe Schmoe's insight about it. I mean, who knows what 92 00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:12.319 to talk about with politics. I thought you have a 93 00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.199 different business perspective on it. I enjoy it at least. 94 00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.360 Well, thank you for that. I did get a lot 95 00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:19.360 of comments on last week's show in China in the 96 00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:21.480 way I looked at it, But you know, forgetting the 97 00:05:21.519 --> 00:05:26.279 news for me, Dan Abrams leaves News Nation. You were 98 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:28.360 an important part of that show. 99 00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:31.480 Yeah, look, it's it's sad on one end. 100 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:34.439 I had been filling in for Dan, who I work 101 00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.319 with at Long Crime. I had been filling in for 102 00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:39.600 him since twenty twenty two. I've been on that show 103 00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:42.439 since twenty twenty one. I can't blame Dan for leaving 104 00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:46.279 News Nation. The guy's busier than anybody ever saw. He's 105 00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:50.040 like the Ryan Seacrest of media. But for me, that 106 00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:52.959 was one of my prime anchoring spots. I would fill 107 00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:56.439 in for him multiple times, sometimes a week, sometimes a month, 108 00:05:57.600 --> 00:05:58.759 and it's something I really enjoyed. 109 00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:00.399 Look, I also fill in for other talent. 110 00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:02.920 I fill in for Elizabeth Vargas, I fell in for 111 00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:06.480 Chris Cuomo, feel I fell in for Ashley Banfield. I've 112 00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:09.959 done a weekend work for them, weekend anchoring. But there 113 00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:13.879 was something very very special about Dan show. It was 114 00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:17.240 an opinion show. I could give my legal perspective, my 115 00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:22.360 legal opinion. It wasn't just straight up news. An incredible 116 00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:24.680 team that I worked with, and I just liked it 117 00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:29.120 because you talked about so many different topics, sports, entertainment, politics, law. 118 00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:30.480 I worked very well. 119 00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:32.519 With the different people. It was one of my favorite 120 00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:35.399 things to do. I felt very comfortable and natural up there. 121 00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:39.000 And I'll tell you what I actually did something I 122 00:06:39.040 --> 00:06:40.560 brought it with me. I'll play it for everybody on 123 00:06:40.600 --> 00:06:44.240 the show. So Dan finished his last show on a 124 00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:48.519 Thursday night, and I actually did his last show on Friday. 125 00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:50.879 He couldn't make that night, So I did his last 126 00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:53.000 official show of Dan Abrams Live and I did a 127 00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:53.560 sign off. 128 00:06:53.800 --> 00:06:55.040 I was able to do a sign. 129 00:06:54.839 --> 00:06:58.199 Off for the my last time filling in and I'll 130 00:06:58.199 --> 00:06:58.800 play it for you. 131 00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:01.000 Now, let's play it before we wrap things up. 132 00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:05.959 Tonight is officially the last episode of Dan Abram's Live. 133 00:07:06.040 --> 00:07:09.160 Dan signed off last night, look and Leland's going to 134 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:10.519 be taken over next week. He's going to do an 135 00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:14.000 incredible job. But I'm said, you know, I actually was 136 00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.959 with Dan interress rehearsals for this show back in twenty 137 00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:19.519 twenty one. That's how far back I go with appearing 138 00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:22.000 on this program. But I just wanted to say that 139 00:07:22.079 --> 00:07:24.439 it was a privilege to be able to guest anchor 140 00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:28.720 this show. So thank you to management, this incredible team, staff, 141 00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:31.720 and of course Dan for giving me the opportunity. And 142 00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:33.839 I want to thank all of you for tuning in, 143 00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:36.639 allowing us into your homes, allowing me into your home. 144 00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:39.519 Well, klass Jess, very well done. I'm proud of you. 145 00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:41.000 Thank you, thank you. 146 00:07:41.079 --> 00:07:42.600 I'm glad they gave me a little bit of time 147 00:07:42.600 --> 00:07:46.120 to say that. I think people were expecting it. A 148 00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:48.160 lot of people online were wondering if I was going 149 00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:50.199 to be taking over the show. A lot of people 150 00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:52.480 wanted me to take over the show, and I thought 151 00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:55.399 it was really interesting that I was great that I 152 00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:58.519 had the opportunity to do that because people were wondering 153 00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:01.120 about my placement there. I'm glad I had an opportunity. 154 00:08:01.160 --> 00:08:02.839 He was a great opportunity for the company to be 155 00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:04.519 able all class, all class. 156 00:08:04.600 --> 00:08:06.759 Now, let me ask you a question. Let's talk Trump. 157 00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:08.040 What have you got on your mind? You've been all 158 00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:10.000 over TV with that stuff. You got anything you want 159 00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:10.600 to talk about? 160 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:11.439 Yes, I do. 161 00:08:11.879 --> 00:08:14.600 I think there's a difference between him trying to do 162 00:08:14.639 --> 00:08:18.839 the right thing with doge right there, no one could doubt, 163 00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:23.120 no one can deny that we have a major, major 164 00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:26.319 trade deficit, we have a major debt problem. How do 165 00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:28.000 we get out of it? It's not good, have to 166 00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:32.000 address it. I gotta give him credit in what three weeks, 167 00:08:32.000 --> 00:08:34.799 four weeks, how much he's been doing. There's something to 168 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:38.360 be said about cutting this, cutting that slashing that. 169 00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:40.960 A part of me loves it. But then I'm also 170 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:42.480 the lawyer, and I think. 171 00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:46.279 About it, and I say to myself, legally, does he 172 00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:47.279 have the right to do this? 173 00:08:47.559 --> 00:08:48.840 And from a legal point of. 174 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.080 View, there is a reason that so many courts are 175 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:56.240 stopping him from doing this. There's a reason because look, 176 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:59.519 executive orders, executive actions, which is what you've seen a 177 00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:03.039 lot of this happening. They have the force of law, 178 00:09:03.159 --> 00:09:06.039 but they're not an actual law. Congress didn't pass it. 179 00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:10.399 And when an executive action directs an agency to do something, 180 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:13.120 you have to make sure that that agency has the 181 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:16.320 authority to do it. And unfortunately, what I think was 182 00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:19.279 happening for Donald Trump is he's running into a lot 183 00:09:19.279 --> 00:09:21.919 of the roadblocks Congress never approved them to do that 184 00:09:21.960 --> 00:09:25.399 Congress has the right to do, to move around funds 185 00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:29.559 that Congress never appropriated, And I think that's the major concern. 186 00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:31.600 You know, it's a balance between he's the head of 187 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.639 the executive branch. He has a right to direct and 188 00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.519 manage the executive branch, but at the same time he 189 00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:39.039 has to follow the law and there's a separation of powers. 190 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:41.480 I think there was a big concern at the beginning 191 00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:43.279 of the week. It seemed to temper a little bit, 192 00:09:43.440 --> 00:09:46.840 but based on Vice President jd Vance's comments that the 193 00:09:46.919 --> 00:09:51.399 courts are getting in the way, questioning the court's authority 194 00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.320 to stop Donald Trump from doing this. The worst case 195 00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:59.240 scenario is if Donald Trump's administration just doesn't follow court orders. Now, 196 00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:01.039 he seemed to sugges he is going to follow the 197 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:03.159 court orders. He's going to appeal it, which is his 198 00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:06.440 right to do. But that was the biggest concern from 199 00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:09.480 this week is that while his intentions might be noble 200 00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:12.120 and right, how he's going about it and what he's 201 00:10:12.159 --> 00:10:14.360 going to do if he's challenged, that's what we're all 202 00:10:14.360 --> 00:10:15.159 waiting out to say. 203 00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:17.399 Well, I'm not waiting. I hope you just as what 204 00:10:17.440 --> 00:10:19.279 he wants to do. You know what I want to 205 00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:21.519 talk about. Do you like what he's doing in. 206 00:10:21.399 --> 00:10:24.720 Gaza, Mara Gaza, that's the one that I've seen a 207 00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:25.759 lot of Maragaza. 208 00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:27.720 Look. 209 00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:31.000 Look, on one hand, he's trying to offer a solution 210 00:10:31.559 --> 00:10:33.960 to what's going on there. I think what really woke 211 00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:38.960 him up was the idea of how devastated that area is, and. 212 00:10:38.879 --> 00:10:40.720 I think he's trying to figure out how to rebuild it. 213 00:10:41.200 --> 00:10:44.200 But it's also a little bit of a simplistic way 214 00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:45.120 of going about it. 215 00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:47.200 I mean, what do you do with the millions of 216 00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:50.200 people there? What do you do? This is not a 217 00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:53.360 strip of land in Reno, Nevada. This is the Gaza strip. 218 00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:56.080 And I think he's looking at it in a way 219 00:10:56.519 --> 00:10:58.720 that I don't know if he's fully accounted all the 220 00:10:58.759 --> 00:11:02.559 different circumstances, they're all the different factors. I think Israel 221 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:04.919 was taken off guard. I think the people of Gaza 222 00:11:05.000 --> 00:11:06.639 were taken off guard. I think the Middle East has 223 00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:09.120 been taken off guard. I think his own constituents and 224 00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.559 the Republican Party have been taken off guard by it. 225 00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:15.519 It's a very bold statement to make where you're going 226 00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:18.679 to say, you know, you want to increase investment in there, 227 00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:21.120 you want people to build in there. That might be 228 00:11:21.120 --> 00:11:24.080 a way to get you know, the area back. But again, 229 00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:26.039 I think there's so many things he hasn't thought of 230 00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:27.960 that it almost felt like a little bit of an 231 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:29.039 off the cuff statement. 232 00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:31.799 Now, I'll tell you what I think. I think Trump 233 00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.039 has said it very well. For the last fifty sixty years, 234 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.799 this has been a problem. People get getting killed, they 235 00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:40.879 build it back, They wasted to the ground, they build 236 00:11:40.919 --> 00:11:43.480 it back. It's a repeating occurrence. It's never going to 237 00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:46.120 get better for those people if this keeps going on. 238 00:11:46.759 --> 00:11:48.759 I love it. I love the idea. What I don't 239 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.600 love is I think he lost a tremendous opportunity here. 240 00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:57.320 This was the opportunity to bring the international community together. 241 00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:01.240 And while he is trying to bring the Arab community together. 242 00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:04.000 I thought what he should have done is split the 243 00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:07.759 Gaza into regions, all lined up with the same purpose. 244 00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.919 It's on the water. It could be great resort, great places, 245 00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:15.240 division for conventions, bring people together, turn it into something special. 246 00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:17.399 But I believe what he should have done, or could do, 247 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:20.200 is take a section of it. Give it to the 248 00:12:20.279 --> 00:12:23.159 Russians to build their hotels, their view of what this 249 00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:26.240 looks like. Give to the Chinese a section to build 250 00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:29.200 what they think is their view, what their hotels, what 251 00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:31.840 they want to bring to the table. Give the Europeans, 252 00:12:31.879 --> 00:12:35.159 the European Union a section to build, and the Americas 253 00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:37.720 will build a section. In the Arab community will build 254 00:12:37.720 --> 00:12:40.399 a section. Call it five different sections, all on the 255 00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:44.279 same strip, making a statement, all working together to build 256 00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:48.639 it up. Make it amazing, give everyone a chance of prosperity, 257 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:51.840 and I think that would alleviate a lot of the 258 00:12:51.879 --> 00:12:55.200 future problems going forward. In fact, you know what, think 259 00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:57.840 about Disneyland with all the theme parks. Do the same 260 00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:02.080 thing in the Gaza strip, involving the international community. I 261 00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:02.960 think it would be great. 262 00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:07.759 Which your solution is to turn Gaza into EPCOT. 263 00:13:08.480 --> 00:13:10.399 I don't know that's your solution. 264 00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:14.840 Well, you called it Maro Gaza, turn it. You said 265 00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:16.639 you wanted to turn it to Marrow Gaza. 266 00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:19.720 I have to be honest, it wasn't my my term. 267 00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:21.840 Somebody I saw online used it, but I think it 268 00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:25.639 was Michael Rappaport. But no, look, it's it's it's I 269 00:13:25.679 --> 00:13:28.279 don't think that's ever going to work for a number 270 00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:28.919 of different reasons. 271 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:30.159 Let me ask you, what do you do with all 272 00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:31.159 the people? Where do they wait? 273 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:33.639 There's not a motel six that they all hang out 274 00:13:34.080 --> 00:13:35.120 and they're going to go back. 275 00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:37.840 Well, it's not clear what to do with the people. 276 00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:39.960 I know he's talking to Egypt. We know he's talking 277 00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:42.519 to Jordan. That whole region is never found a home 278 00:13:42.559 --> 00:13:45.679 for the Palestinees. Either they need a place to live temporarily, 279 00:13:45.960 --> 00:13:48.159 they need places to rebuild for them so they could 280 00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:52.559 have normal lives, or this facility generates enough money to 281 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:55.960 support them going forward with new startups and businesses. Whatever. 282 00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:59.120 It's a great idea to save people. We speaking of 283 00:13:59.200 --> 00:14:05.000 save people. I love what's going on with the Ukraine. 284 00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:07.480 Before I give you my input that you say you like, 285 00:14:08.080 --> 00:14:10.559 do you have something you'd like to say about the Ukraine. 286 00:14:10.960 --> 00:14:15.200 I think they're being least a bit transparent about what 287 00:14:15.799 --> 00:14:19.919 can and can happen. So Pete Hegseth, who's the Defense secretary, 288 00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:22.879 said I don't think we can live in reality. Essentially, 289 00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:25.320 in paraphrasing, we can't live in a reality where we're going. 290 00:14:25.159 --> 00:14:26.240 Back to before the war. 291 00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:28.919 And he also said that he doesn't see a situation 292 00:14:29.039 --> 00:14:31.320 where Ukraine is going to be a part of NATO. 293 00:14:32.320 --> 00:14:34.879 They're being honest about what the situation is, and Donald 294 00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:39.240 Trump's apparently speaking with Putin is a step forward. I 295 00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:41.600 think he really wants to end this. It's going to 296 00:14:41.639 --> 00:14:43.960 be a negotiation and I don't think both sides are 297 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:46.559 going to be incredibly happy with it, but hopefully they 298 00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:48.799 meet a middle ground because I think we all agree 299 00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:49.879 the fighting has to stop. 300 00:14:50.200 --> 00:14:52.159 Now we're on the same page on this one. Look, 301 00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:56.200 Donald Trump said from day one, people are dying. They're 302 00:14:56.279 --> 00:14:59.960 killing thousands of people, hundreds of thousands, they're losing check 303 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:04.200 narrations of men, they're dying. I wanted to stop. And 304 00:15:04.279 --> 00:15:08.039 I think it's only right that we understand that Russia 305 00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:11.320 didn't get this, didn't get in this for nothing. Whether 306 00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:14.240 they're the aggressive, whether they're right, whether they're wrong, at 307 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:17.000 this point, it doesn't matter. Stop the dying. Let people 308 00:15:17.039 --> 00:15:20.240 get on with their lives. And it means succeeding some territory. 309 00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:23.480 It was going to happen. Russia's not going to lose 310 00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:26.080 to the Ukraine, no matter how many weapons we send in, 311 00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:28.639 and whodo wants to be sending in weapons from here 312 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:32.360 to help kill people. I know the Europeans have questions. 313 00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:34.960 We have to stop Putin, we have to stop Ukraine. 314 00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:38.080 It's a terrible situation that can go on forever, and 315 00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:41.679 it's enough killing. Having said that, a little territory to 316 00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:43.600 save a lot of lives I think will make a 317 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:47.519 lot of headway. Now as far as Putin goes. I've 318 00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:50.120 said this in the past, they'll say it again. There 319 00:15:50.320 --> 00:15:52.759 was a time two thousand and eight. I remember I 320 00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:56.440 was at LVMH. We had an amazing run with the Russians. 321 00:15:56.759 --> 00:15:58.480 They were all coming to New York, they were all 322 00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:00.960 coming to this country, they were all doing business, they 323 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:06.960 were all coming together, and it became the successful entrepreneurism 324 00:16:07.039 --> 00:16:10.399 of the world, bringing our two countries together, and Russia 325 00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:12.919 was in a very good place. Putin was proud of 326 00:16:12.960 --> 00:16:14.960 the country. He was proud of what was going on, 327 00:16:15.159 --> 00:16:19.159 and then we alienated him everything anti Russia, anti Russia, 328 00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:21.799 anti Russia. This is a man, It's like anyone else. 329 00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:24.120 If everybody keeps hammer on you and saying you're a 330 00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:26.279 bad guy and you're a dictator, and you're a Nazi 331 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:28.759 and you're this, of course he's gonna not like it. 332 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:31.399 We need to bring him back into the community of men. 333 00:16:31.440 --> 00:16:34.559 We need to bring Russia back into the community. We 334 00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:37.360 want them as our friends. We don't need enemies. We 335 00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:40.000 have to let buy guns be byguns. I know a 336 00:16:40.039 --> 00:16:42.159 million people are gonna tell me I'm foolish, but what 337 00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:45.360 else is the alternative. Let this war go on forever, 338 00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:49.120 Let it lead to World War three. Let Trump make 339 00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.000 a deal, let him be the broker. Let this happen. 340 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:54.639 I think we're in a great place. You know, this 341 00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:58.360 is such a patriotic time for our country. Those of 342 00:16:58.399 --> 00:17:03.120 you don't like Don Trump. Every time he shows up, 343 00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:09.400 people are chanting USSA, USA, USA, make America great again, 344 00:17:10.079 --> 00:17:14.680 Put America first. It's a wonderful time. The conversations on Canada, 345 00:17:15.319 --> 00:17:17.799 I never thought about it. Should Canada be our fifty 346 00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:22.400 first state? When did we make Alaska our fifty fiftieth state. 347 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.119 There was a reason should Canada become our fifty first state. 348 00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:29.279 I think it's a great dialogue that we're having, and 349 00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:31.759 let the geniuses figure out as that are plus or 350 00:17:31.759 --> 00:17:36.039 minus for both countries. The subject of Greenland, it's natural resources. 351 00:17:36.079 --> 00:17:39.160 If we could buy it, why wouldn't we. The population 352 00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:42.640 is successful, they're happy. Maybe this is a nice addition 353 00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:46.160 again to the continental United States. And then of course 354 00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:49.519 this Panama. We gave the Panama Canal away for nothing. 355 00:17:49.599 --> 00:17:51.519 Jimmy Carter gave it because he thought it was right 356 00:17:51.559 --> 00:17:54.400 that the Panamanians should own the canal. But he didn't 357 00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:57.319 consider that America built it, all the work, all the sacrifices, 358 00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:01.119 and now they're taking advantage of us. They're holding up 359 00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:03.480 our ships. No good. I think it's right that we're 360 00:18:03.519 --> 00:18:06.559 talking about and Gulf of America. I love it. So 361 00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:09.240 I hope all this turns out to something international and 362 00:18:09.319 --> 00:18:12.480 if we can. We want to be neutral in this world. 363 00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:14.640 We want to have a nice time. We don't want 364 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:19.359 people dying. Get on board, Democrats, what he's doing is right. 365 00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:24.559 You want we are a nation of immigrants, not illegals, immigrants. 366 00:18:24.799 --> 00:18:26.799 We don't want to be woke anymore that we've all 367 00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:30.079 voted for and what are we fighting for now? We're 368 00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:35.599 fighting to get America on a solid foundation. To say 369 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:37.440 anything before I close this segment. 370 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:41.039 We love Greenland, not very green, Frankly, Frankly, we always 371 00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:42.319 think it's going to be green, but it's not. 372 00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:43.079 We love it. 373 00:18:43.160 --> 00:18:45.400 Denmark is going to send it to us. We're gonna 374 00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:46.839 do it. They're gonna love it. We're gonna love it. 375 00:18:46.839 --> 00:18:47.839 It's gonna be fantastic. 376 00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:50.759 I actually do think, by the way, that they don't 377 00:18:50.759 --> 00:18:53.039 want to sell it. I don't think they want to 378 00:18:53.079 --> 00:18:55.200 give it to us. But I do think what's interesting 379 00:18:55.599 --> 00:19:00.680 is Greenland. You mentioned the resources. I think they strategic. 380 00:19:00.880 --> 00:19:03.160 It's important to be there because of Russia and China. 381 00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:05.519 It's important to us for us to have a position there, 382 00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:08.319 and I think that that's why one of the reasons 383 00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:09.480 why he's been pushing for it. 384 00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:12.440 But unprecedented times. We shall see what happens. 385 00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:15.319 Well, they offer everyone in Greenland a million dollars, We'll 386 00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:18.839 see what they say. And with that as a backdrop, tonight, 387 00:19:19.279 --> 00:19:21.720 we live in interesting times. I'm going to take a 388 00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.359 break and come back and we're going to talk about 389 00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:27.319 a week in the Interesting Life of Mark Webber back 390 00:19:27.359 --> 00:19:27.559 in a. 391 00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:30.640 Moment, always in fashion. 392 00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:34.039 I spent a lifetime of my career building the van 393 00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:37.160 Usen brand, and I am so pleased that they're back 394 00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:42.359 with us now talking about suits.
