#ArnoldSchwarznegger #California #Politics
Love this guy!!!!!
Arnold never ceases to amaze me. He built a career playing unbending, militant, sometimes muscle headed characters. But he is the exact opposite. Remarkably intelligent, insightful. And. Frankly. Peace-minded.
Ll
i know right, why cant wej ust get onto the side of whast truelly good, an illegitimate old folks home patient with record low approval rate, humiliating us in front of the world and destroying the country at a pace never before seen?
That was so touching, what he said to Kristen about Tim Russert. Brought a tear.
omg! Michael, me too. He is so gracious and so very smart!
Brilliant Man.
Sadly he can't be a American 🇺🇸 President, however Arnold would get many Vote's.
Arnold's is humble, factually a great motivational speaker, that's impacting the next generation.
I can not agree more. He would win the presidency hands-down.He, like everyone has their skeletons - no one is perfect, but with that being said, I belueve Schwarzenegger would make a great American president. 🇺🇸❤ 💙
I love this interview. The interaction between Kristen Welker and Arnold Schwarzenegger is harmonious and respectful. Excellent, excellent job to both of them.
Arnold Schwarzenegger was incredibly polite and complementary in comparing Kristen Welker's professionalism to the late Tim Russert ❤.
Arnold is a stand-up guy. If you haven't seen Tim Russert's interview with then California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, I encourage you to do so - it's exceptional! Just like this interview was. One for the journalism history books.
This interview made my day. Thank you to both of them. 😎👍🇺🇸
The book is a great read. Down to earth and blunt
I share his epic motivational speeches here in Louisville with everyone. Still on my path to my epic goal. Thank you Arnold!
One of the best Republican voices I've heard in a while. Great interview.
I wish I lived in a timeline where Arnold was my president for 8 straight years.
What would that look like?
Imagine America without immigration
Arnold is an immigrant and an example of what makes America great now.
Let's change the rules,Arnold, for President!
R or D what makes this man successful is he's reasonable...
Exactly and I truly believe in his philosophy that we can ALL get some of what we want! I don't consider myself a R or D or I. Do I have to pigeon hole myself, I want good. Can we get just a party called "The good and Normal" party? hahahhaaha oh well, old and wishing!!!!
Thank you for caring about us Arnold!❤ Wise words from a wise person!
👍🙏❤️
@@user-cg2yv8yo3x I'm commenting to what was said in this interview about working together for the benefit of our citizens. Why would that be disagreeable; or are you referring to his position on other specific topics? I'm sure I don't agree with all his ideas or positions, so is there something important that should be known?

I liked that. One of my elementary schools was on the same street as John Connor's home from Terminator II. He was on the west side. Our school was on the east side. I kid you not, Grampa Munster (Al Lewis) lived on that same street in real life, too. Smack Dab in the Middle as Ray Charles sang. West beyond our school, that street ends at Jay Leno's Garage. Bring all his classics together. Unite Hotwheels' Splittin' Image and Grampa Munster's Dragula in the Elementary mind of all John Connors. All the classics united.
"So let it be written. So let it be done." Yul Brenner."
"Make it so." Patrick Stewart.
"Beer me." George Wendt playing the Elementary content of his character, Norm. Cheers, John Connors. Cheers.
We all love Arnold
I thank not just Arnold but the ___ for handin' the World Schwarzenegger!!! Sincerely...
As a liberal, I love this man. I really really really wish I could vote for him.
He links Raegan to the years when his life was at its peak. The old "everything was better back then syndrome". I don't think he understands the long term harm of Raegan
Exactly!
Good guy❤
Arnold has a multitude of “differentiators” that helped him stand out. He is true to his authentic self
This guy a legend FOR ALL TIMES. Bravo to my fellow Californian!
Love, love Arnold. He's become a wise man.
it's no fate!! Thanks Arnold for my happy childhood
The future is not set, there is no fate but what we make for ourselves.
Arnold for president!!!
Tell the world about your predatory real estate deals in LA Arnold. Tell everyone how you raise rents on families from LA.
Relaxation is for retired and rest is for babies? Ironic considering how important rest and recovery is in body building and how Arnold is pretty well known for relaxing, smoking a cigar, chilling on the beach, vacation homes, etc.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa he has and does those things, but he's not lazy!
He's gotten soft in old age. But he's still a icon. I don't think many could ever accomplish half of what he did!
He's almost 100 he's become a wise man not a soft man.
Thanks for posting
How does one get ahold of Mr.Swartz? Lookin' for an investor...
Democracy depends on the intelligence of the voters to make the right choices.
He looks good. That white beard looks great on him
Arnold I beg you, RE ENTER POLITICS ! WE NEED YOU !
Ask Fukushima how clean nuclear energy is.
We don’t live in a democracy
Where this guy from?
Don't forget Arnold pardoned a murderer on his way out the door as governor of California.
Arnold proves even a good person can be fooled into being a republican.
lol
getting it NOW, thank you
@@skybabe1959 Ronald Reagan was the father of the MAGA Republican cult. Can you say trickle down and the government (Ronald Reagan) is your enemy. He sure wasn't that bright but he did fool millions.
Yeah I wonder what sealed it for him.
yes the side of truth and goodness, an illegitimate vegetable destroying the country at a pace never before seen
What a great man, never imagined he was such a thinker. While I lean to the left I've voted my heart so I've voted for both parties and I would vote for Arnold if he was running for president in this next election. Great interview
Before he was a famous actor, he became rich through real estate
I admire you Schwarz 👍🤗.
Arnold, for on self. Focus on faithfulness. 🕊️
Beautifully said, Arnie.
Definitely a smart man !
A joke, right??
Love arnie, but let's face it, the division comes from one party
Your legacy is one of greatness, honor, America, and love. God! We are so lucky to have him in the United States. That ladies and gentlemen, is not just a man but a great man. Much love Arnold, in this chaos you really gave me a sense of hope for people. Thank you.
Back to your basement with your hoodies!
@@timj.8056 Look who’s talking, I’d rather be that than someone that only spreads negativity.
A better quote: Democracy has always been vulnerable..but our Democracy has never been killable.
modern democracy is a weekend at bernies perpetrated by neolibs.....
OH LX preach it!!!! I've never seen anything like this but I refuse to live in fear for the rest of my days. I do worry about my kids and grandkids and of course everyone in the world!
As soon as she said "one of the world's greatest bodybuilder" I hit pause and posted this comment.
I admire this man 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍 Arnold Schwarzenegger
Me too Miquel! We need to come together it is the only way. I have been around for 64 years, his way can work! Be good to each other and remember that We are One!!!!!!!
Super interesting man!!!!!!
democracy has always been in the grasp of the wealthy beholder...
❤
He isn't the governor, Welker!
I give Arnold a lot of credit for fulfilling his dreams in three very different fields. I cannot think of anyone who has succeeded the way he has. However, he is not an "all knowing / all seeing" person. He has blind spots as do we all. And - when it comes to discussing Republicans and Democrats, his blind spot is HUGE: He does not appear to see that the GOP realized some time ago that it's agenda is no longer popular enough to win elections. So, instead of concentrating on winning votes with its ideas, it has focused on limiting who can vote so that - even though its ideas are supported by a minority of voters - it can still win. The strategy of "minority rule" extends to denying that it has lost (see: Trump 2020, which I'm shocked was not talked about in a "denying it lost" context instead of being compared to the night when synagogues were burned in Germany) and to the MAGA Republicans taking over the leadership of the House by was of intimidation (including that the MAGA voters will support a primary challenge to any sitting House or Senate member. Arnold should have been asked about Mitt Romney (who is a lot like Reagan in his beliefs and has now written a book that is very critical of the MAGA take over of the GOP). But NBC decided not to do so. So, this interview involved Arnold saying "both sides need to come together" as if it's still "Democrats and Republicans". It is not! We now have "democracy vs authoritarianism". THAT is the story. And NBC failed to ask Arnold about how the GOP has chosen authoritarianism over democracy. Think I'm crazy? Check out the work of historian Heather Cox Richardson.
MUCH respect for Mr, Schwarzenegger, but I don't think his "just bring everyone together" solution is sufficient. I see an extremist portion of the GOP that has a primary mission to divide and defeat any policies or politicians on Left, I could be mistaken, but it appears analogus to Hamas in that it's a group without rules in which cooperation is the enemy. When you have a faction with that agenda, you will never find middle ground, Until such entities are dissolved, there can be no significant cooperative effort.
Arnold isn't bright.
i know right, why cant wej ust get onto the side of whast truelly good, an illegitimate old folks home patient with record low approval rate, humiliating us in front of the world and destroying the country at a pace never before seen?
I really like Arnold!!!💪🏾
he is wrong saying you should work like a machine and relax when your dead, so im a cab driver, so in his view i should just keep slaving away until i drop dead of a heart attack right? NO, i wanna retire to thailand or the phillipines and enjoy the rest of my life not work till i drop dead and be a modern day slave
Aptera cars...self energizing
I'd like to see JBPeterson and Mr. Arnold having a discourse. I wish to see Mr. Arnold run for US Presidency.
Arnold is a beautiful person!
What is way to the left???? Is it wanting Health-care for everyone, or education for everyone, or the right for every citizen to vote??? Which is it???
we have the illusion of democracy in this country. #RepresentUs
YEzzz! GOod poidnnt! Yez, and these things! This is so pumped up and so great and these thingz! And here we are and it is amazing and pumped up and things!!
omg i am still in love!!! I wish he could run for president, I would vote for him in one minute. He is an awesome soul!!! Thank you honey, you do the best interviews!!!!!
EVEN IF he could run, and won... then there is the idiots is Congress, 80% on both sides need to be fired, then maybe we might have a chance, for overall improvement.
i agree! And maybe he could very nicely send them packing!!!@@msdr01dmc53
@@msdr01dmc53Exactly, a temporary solution to a bigger problem.
its a shame Arnold can't run. He would get a massive chunk of voter support.
🧐 I wonder who on the Democrats is way to the left and totally Wacky? 🤷♂
Good thinker x. Gov
🤣
"Democrats screaming for Biden.."-uh NO! we are not screaming for Biden. Not screaming for Trump either. We're just screaming 🤪
Cookies & Milk... Just like America & voting, they gotta go together...
Run Arnold run...
🇺🇸，👍
Arny is always well loved for his honesty - - - but if he put himself as a Palestinian to see his house got blown up to make way for Israeli settlement; and his people is being shot at will daily by Israelis soldiers and polices; he could understand the motive of the Palestinian people ...
Freedom..... not here
Arnold for president
Arnold for President whoevers National Advisor!!!
what would he say to a trapped starving kid being bombed in Gaza?
Wowwww! He has certainly aged.
Scwarz for prez
By the time Arnold Schwarzenegger can tell anyone what does the word “um” ,”uh” “ahh” “op” or ohh , and whatever else the strange noise made between the meanings in English language spoken and why does the nose a habit when uddered while speaking English language on television in USA. Useful importantly if the dictionary can explain the ,um, uh phenomenon of usa
And what you just spewed onto the internet makes sense, does it?
One of them best and smartest men I ever knew had speech peppered with such things.
Arnold is a Democrat. He just doesn't know it yet.
A lot of stars who were born with funny sounding last names end up changing it out of feeling self conscious or out of America's perception and reaction to anything that's non-American,but the terminator owned his.
What an absolute Gentleman...There should be an amendment to the constitution regarding qualification for president, i.e. having to be born in America. I think the bar should be high, but exceptions should be made. For example, imagine if a couple went away on vacation who were Americans and the female gave birth whilst on vacation in England, or any other country, then their child would never qualify to become president.That's a ridiculous rule in this case. In Arnold's case, he has been resident and a naturalised citizen for decades and has obviously held office as governor of California, and has proved his loyalty and integrity to the United States of America. In such a case, there should be an exception. Cenk Uyger pointed out a loophole last week regarding this rule, and he ran it by Bernie Sanders, who agreed that his point had merit, and he was talking about taking it to the Supreme Court....
Like he said you need to come together to resolve the issue in America. Did you hear that Republicans and Democrats and stop taking sides and do your job…
We are a Republic! A constitutional republic. Our constitutional freedoms such as speech, due process and gun ownership rights are threatened.
I wish he could be President. Sadly he' can't because of the law. USA needs a man like him right now.
I love this man. I admired his body but lately I see he has much more admirable brain and heart... I hope I'll end up with a man like him...
I hope you don't end up with a man like him. Do you know he cheating on his wife Maria Shriver?
He cheated on her with the housekeeper.
It's odd that interviewers never question him on what he did to his wife.
@@corinnehernandez4549 I didn't know that. Poor Maria. It's so hard to find a loving and loyal man.
@@corinnehernandez4549 Arnold is a Man who could have had 200+ wives in the old testament...Big Bazookas on a Woman are truly a Temptation Arnold couldn't Resist...I would be Happy if I saw him on a News Station everyday...He is Still Yummy ...I Love his Voice...
Ask him about his regrets ?
Smitten with Arnold, eh ? Perhaps we might ask why the " Golden State " has lost so much of it's luster....(?)....especially in it's major cities and urban areas !
always a fan...read two 80s/90s biogs of him..one pro, one somewhat hostile to him..
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
So crazy how people think the Hamas attack was completely unprovoked
I would vote for Arnold as Prime Minister of Canada!!!!
Arnold is one of the reasons we should rethink only having native born presidents.
Well said about the middle east conflict. They both need to listen to each other. Almost 2000+ people dead Isreal side and around 9000+ on Palestinian side 95% of those people killed are civilians......
Real leadership right here
Wish I could vote Schwarzenegger in 2024
I would absolutely vote for Arnold for POTUS if i could. The man is far far more intelligent than he gets credit for and is a natural problem solver on top of having a greater love for America as a country and an idea than most natural born citizens.
👍Pure agree.
He actually sounds like a Democrat!! I dig it!!
If Arnold were eligible to run for President of this country, he would win easily. No question in my mind.
Im sorry i would take arnold advice on california's election processs..the end result is the california lost 1 electoral seat in congress due to their one party system.
Great interview. Comes off as a calm filtered Trump. He’s come along way from his body building days when he was petty af
Yes! we need that calmness more than anything. Have you seen his doc? He is just built differently, his brain is so focused. I am a senior and am depending on the younger generation to be a lot wiser than I was!!!!!! Not to old to vote I hope!!!!!!
"A calm filtered Trump"???? Are you even kidding? He is NOTHING LIKE TRUMP. There is absolutely NO comparison! Arnold is everything Trump can't even DREAM of being.
Agree Amy, could you even imagine a calm, unfiltered Trump!!! Laughable!!!!@@amydavis4945
