:35:00
You're in the White House right now
because of the Kennedys
:35:03
They may be wrong. They make mistakes
:35:06
But they are not weak
:35:08
The weak ones are these people
who can't speak their own minds
:35:11
You know I don't mean
that they're weak
:35:12
No, you just lack a "moral toughness"
:35:14
Jesus Christ, Mac!
:35:18
You think I'll play your Judas for you
:35:22
You never understood us, for you
:35:24
We've been fighting with each other
our whole lives
:35:26
But nobody plays us off each other
:35:28
and nobody ever
:35:29
ever gets between us
:35:32
It's trial balloon, Kenny
:35:34
Then somebody better publicly deny it
:35:37
because there's only one way
the world is gonna read this
:35:39
We sell out one of our own friends
for own safety
:35:44
Fuck!
:35:45
Exactly
:35:48
Jesus Christ. They're killing us
:35:51
... and enter into negotiations...
:35:55
in order to normalize
this confrontation
:35:58
and avert the threat of a world war
:36:00
What is that Sun Tzu says?
:36:04
"War is a moral contest
:36:05
and they're won in the temples
before they're ever fought. "
:36:08
This enormous danger for all mankind...
:36:12
which exists at this moment...
:36:15
It's right here
:36:16
This is where we turn it around
:36:18
You all Adlai. You tell him
to stick it to this son of a bitch!
:36:25
The U. S. believes that
with their economic boycott
:36:29
by pressuring other countries
to cease trade with Cuba
:36:33
we would surrender due to hunger
:36:36
How does it feel, Mr. President,
:36:39
to be this heroic...
:36:42
and force a country
to surrender due to...
:36:44
Am I still on hold?
:36:46
They're trying to find him right now
:36:49
Adlai's too weak!
:36:50
We have to convince Jack to pull him
Get McCloy in there
:36:53
You can't talk him out this
late in the game, bobby
:36:54
Zorin will eat him alive
:36:57
Then talk to your brother, goddammit!
:36:59
The two of you don't need my advice
to get into trouble
