Former Army Ranger sniper Nicholas Irving joins Shawn Prez for a blunt discussion about war, money, power, and political legacy. The conversation examines why a president or world leader might have little reason to stop a conflict if allies, markets, or family interests are benefiting financially. Using Donald Trump as the central example, Irving weighs questions around stock market manipulation, generational wealth, legal accountability, age, and the idea of “saving face” before leaving office.
The interview also touches on Joe Biden’s Afghanistan withdrawal, Barack Obama’s Martha’s Vineyard property and Netflix deal, *The Art of the Deal*, government loopholes, and whether exposing corruption could become its own political legacy. Irving and Prez explore the uncomfortable reality of profitable wars, public accountability, and why “business is good” may outweigh the human cost.
