So here are the two things I think we could do.
Look, on how do you end the war in Gaza?
Yeah, that's a great question.
How do you, yeah, what would you do to curtail things right now in Gaza?
Do you think they're really going to aim for like a two-party state over there?
To me, it looks like they're just going to try to sweep these people into the
ocean, you know?
Which I hate to say that.
The problem is you've got Netanyahu who is listening to his right wing, right?
Ben Gavir and Smokelish.
These are two guys.
Smokelish is the other guy's name?
Smokelish, Smokelish.
Smokelish, bring him up.
There he is, Smokelish.
Zalo Smokelish, yeah.
And these guys are basically telling, they're telling Netanyahu that if you
stop bombing Gaza
until all of Hamas is killed, that we won't support you for prime minister.
So if Netanyahu stops, he stops being prime minister.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
So he's in a bit of a catch-22.
He's in a catch-22.
I don't understand if they're- because you always hear great things about the
Israeli military, right?
Right.
The IDF, you always hear like how amazing they are.
And I've met a lot of former people that have been in it and guys who were like
in the Krav Maga,
some really talented warriors, really.
But then why not send like your Navy SEALs to get the actual Hamas people?
I don't understand this.
If you're so precise, you're bug spraying this group, these people, you know?
Like they got them in the first three months.
They destroyed most of Hamas's military capability.
But the reality is Hamas is both a military movement, but it's also partly a
political movement.
I mean, there are people-
Some people in Palestine elected Hamas because they thought they needed a
desperate political party.
Exactly.
Right.
So then the question is, well, what do you do?
Because I agree with you that Hamas can't be governing Gaza.
Yeah.
And so there is a solution.
And the solution is the president, Donald Trump, can call Netanyahu.
He says, okay, enough with the bombing.
You know, we're giving them right now 2,000 pound bombs to hit these civilians.
We're giving them-
There was a video the other day.
Sorry to interrupt you, bro.
No, please.
Can you see if you can pull that up, Trevor?
And there was a video of a child picking up the casing of a missile and reading
it, I think.
See if you find that.
Yeah.
Yeah, we can't find it.
That's okay.
Do you think there's any chance of Palestine getting its land back there?
I do.
But first of all, I mean, you talked about this child getting a missile.
I mean, how would it make you feel that our tax dollars actually were paying
for a lot of the missiles and the weapons that are being used to now kill
Palestinians?
I agree.
I think we've given them $12 billion this year, Israel allegedly.
Can you look up what amount of war materials that we've given them, Trevin?
The United States has provided significant military aid to Israel throughout
2025.
The Trump administration, which took office in January 2025, has approved
nearly $12 billion in major foreign military sales to Israel.
This includes nearly a $3 billion arms sale.
Does that mean we're selling them to them?
We're selling part of them to them, and then we've also given aid.
Now, I voted against the offensive weapons aid about last year, but we approved
it.
So some of it is in aid.
Some of it is in sales.
Trump is giving them 2,000-pound bombs that they can be using.
So here's, though, what I think that I'm hoping he or others may be listening
to this because your voice really matters because you know a lot of people who
voted for him.
And they voted for him because they wanted American patriotism.
They wanted to focus on building our industrial base.
They wanted us out of these wars.
Donald Trump can call Netanyahu, and he says, enough.
We're not going to be giving you more offensive weapons to kill more civilians
in Gaza.
But here's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to convene Saudi Arabia.
I'm going to convene Jordan.
What does convene mean, sorry?
Convene mean bring them together.
Okay.
Bring them together.
We're going to get the Arab states together, Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia,
people in Palestine, Fatah, Israel, the United States.
And we're going to say we need a new government in Gaza.
It can't be Hamas.
Hamas is a terrorist organization.
We're going to get rid of Hamas.
And we're going to make sure that this new government has Palestinian voices
but also has Saudi, Jordan, Egypt, part of it to make it secure.
Right.
So that they don't attack Israel because Saudi doesn't want to attack Israel.
You know, he could win the Nobel Prize.
You know, he wants to always win the Nobel Prize.
Donald Trump?
Donald Trump could win the Nobel Prize.
How could he win it, do you think, right?
I think if he comes in and he says to Netanyahu, stop.
Stop this.
I'm actually the president who's going to bring peace.
And here's how we're going to do it.
It's not just going to be Israel, the United States, and Palestine because we
agree Hamas can't be anywhere running Gaza.
I mean, Hamas has called for the destruction of Israel.
We have to stand for Israel's right to exist as a Jewish democratic state.
I mean, that is a principle we have to respect.
But we're going to get Saudi Arabia.
And they have to respect Palestine's right to exist, right?
They have to respect Palestine's right to self-determination and have a
Palestinian state in Gaza and in the West Bank.
And you can get those two states.
And with land swaps, you could actually make it that even a lot of the settlers
are still going to be able to stay in some of the places.
I mean, you could get to a lot of the deal we know that needs to happen.
But Trump has a good relationship with the Saudis.
We have a good relationship with Jordan.
We've got a good relationship with Egypt.
Get all of these countries on board and say, okay, what is the new Palestinian
leadership going to look like?
Saudi, Egypt, Jordan, are you going to guarantee?
Qatar, too.
Qatar.
My boys over there, I was just over there, man.
They had us all dressed up like a bunch of Ku Klux Sands.
You were in Qatar?
Yeah.
What were you doing in Qatar?
They had me come and perform for the troops.
Wow.
It was really great.
It was pretty special.
But sorry, I interrupted you just to get a joke in.
But I also was excited and had a great time there.
They really treated me very nice.
People thought I was a spy.
I thought maybe they were going to try to...
You could be part of this old Middle East plan.
Maybe you'll go perform if they get a state there.
I mean, look, what bothers me is that we know what we need to do.
Right.
So why is Trump afraid?
Is Donald Trump afraid of Netanyahu?
I don't understand that, you know, because Trump certainly feels like he is a
guy who does not seem afraid to say what he wants to say.
I don't think he...
I don't know what it is because I want Trump to do the right thing.
Like, I want him to start to end the war in Gaza to actually figure out how we
get peace there.
And I think he could.
He could.
If he picks up the phone and he says, Netanyahu, you're done.
Netanyahu is going to stop the bombing.
And then Netanyahu is going to say, okay, but we got Hamas.
I can't stay here with Hamas.
And Trump can say, okay, I'm going to help you get rid of Hamas.
But you can't keep bombing and killing women and children.
That's not getting rid of Hamas.
Yeah, it's freaking crazy, dude.
I mean, it's just like...
And so you get Egypt, you get Jordan, you get Saudi Arabia.
I call it the 23-state solution.
You get all of those Arab states...
Put Mississippi...
Dude, I'll tell you this.
We can give Mississippi to Palestine.
I've been saying that for 15 years.
Have them come over, have Mississippi.
Have Mississippi?
Yeah.
Have the Palestinian people come and move there if they want.
Yeah, but they want Palestine, right?
I understand.
And I do understand that.
I was just trying to give them something that...
I think everybody could...
Because Mississippi could use an economic boom.
They could use, I think, some...
You're for Palestinian immigrants coming, maybe.
Yeah.
Well, that's what I'm saying.
With Palestinian immigrants coming, it would just kind of add a new texture to
that whole state.
I think it needs a rebirth of thought.
They have a lot of great arts there, but I think they need...
They had Faulkner.
Oh, yeah.
They had some greats.
They had Eudora Welty.
They had Faulkner.
They had Jackson Dart.
I mean, they've got some great Morgan Freeman.
I mean, those are easy ones, some of them.
But no, I'm just saying, if they had the Palestinians there, it would be
interesting.
So I've just always thought that that would be interesting.
But I think your voice on this really matters because no one sees you as sort
of like some
campus activist shutting down university buildings.
You're talking to regular people.
You're talking to people who are truck drivers and blue-collar workers.
And you're saying, you know what, I'm always for the little guy.
From the stuff I've seen about you, if there's like one Theo Vaughn political
philosophy,
it seems like you're for the people who are being bullied.
You're for the people who are kind of shut out.
And that's how you're seeing this Palestinian issue.
It's not because you're...
I mean, it's not Jewish or Palestinian or Muslim.
It's like, how can we not be for both people?
And now you're the most powerful country in the world.
And a lot of people you know supported Donald Trump.
And he has an opportunity to bring the suffering to the end and make peace.
Right.
We're supposed to be the ones there to help, right?
Right.
We're supposed to be the ones there to help.
And if your country isn't even going to do that at a level that's grandiose,
right,
then what makes you want to go home and do that at your own level?
You know, like, well, you'll still do that, but you won't do it in feeling that
you are
supported by your country.
And yeah, I don't want people to go die over there.
I don't think that it doesn't feel right to me.
And that's okay.
Some people might be like, well, you're not a political pundit.
I don't give a shit.
But you know what?
You know, I don't care if I am or not.
I am a human being.
And you're a citizen.
And I am a citizen.
And some people are like, well, you're lucky to be a citizen.
Yeah, but I'm a citizen.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I'm a citizen.
I think the Native Americans should get things back.
And to me, it does start to feel like that.
You're like, it has been such a massacre.
They are so overabundant.
I mean, it's basically people climbing into holes of rubble looking for pieces
of their
children and family members.
And it's like, we're watching it all.
It really does feel like, am I now part of some sick experiment?
Like, how long do I sit and watch before I raise my hand or say something?
Or at least some part of me that has a voice inside of me that says, just take
me out.
I don't want to be in this game anymore.
I don't like it, man.
I don't like it.
