Published | Video Starts at 12:18

Well, I'm a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, so I'm getting regular reports from our intelligence community about what is actually happening on the ground. But by and large, you're seeing what's happening on the ground right now. Putin is doing very badly. He misjudged the Ukrainian will to fight, and he misjudged President Zelensky. who's been sort of the modern reincarnation of Winston Churchill. It just shows you what an inspired leader and people who have the will to defend their life and their sovereignty, what they're willing to do. (12:18–12:28)
