Exchange of the Day

Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy appeared on Hugh Hewitt’s radio program:

HEWITT: Are you familiar with the triad?

RAMASWAMY: The triad?

HEWITT: You don’t know what the triad is?

RAMASWAMY: With context, what…

HEWITT: The nuclear triad?

RAMASWAMY: What’s that?

HEWITT: The nuclear triad.

RAMASWAMY: Oh, the nuclear triad. Yeah, you’re talking about our new axis of sort of evil here?

HEWITT: No, I’m talking about the air, the land, and the sea nuclear deterrent that we won the Cold War with.

RAMASWAMY: I have to admit, I’m not familiar with that.
