science of spring on national mall, and failed cherry blossoms are blooming. the national park service title basin up but regulate how many people are allowed in and out. and that's how fox reports this saturday, march 27th, see you tomorrow. ♪ ♪ mark: hello america i'm mark levin and this is "life, liberty & levin" we have a great show two tremendous guests general and i.c.e. director we want to talk about national security and first several segments. and final segments i want to talk about immigration. but before i do, a few comments. i'm extremely concerned about what's going on in this country so-called fundamental transportation of the countries

massive deficit spending soon massive taxation a tax on our constitutional system, the independence of the supreme court, the filibuster rule, the electoral process which we discussed last week, all of the executive orders, critical this theory critical that theory as if the president of the united states is taking most radical agenda from aoc and sanders and rest and instituting them if they doesn't substitute them by executive branch they're going to by hook or crook in congress. and what does that do to our country when we're facing enemies abroad? when this sort of tamult and in particular i'm thinking of communist china i'm thinking about those in iran i'm thinking about our own national security. you know they used to say about a hundred years ago, look the

sun never sets on the british empire. they used to say about hundred years that british navy controls the sea. you don't say that anymore. because britain isn't a top superpower anymore iter as nucls and military a very efficient military did you it doesn't have the most powerful on the earth britain's economy is the touch every aspect of the planet. well it touches every aspect of the planet now but not in such a fundamental way. i fear that people in this country think that the united states will always be the most super of superpower because we've been raised this way and we have a magnificent economy and magnificent military. but what happens if our military is degraded? what happens if our economy and our model prosperity and growth is attacked? what happens if our enemies, our enemies are more efficient and

more focused on their objectives those objectives being to surpass us militarily and economically and even threaten us. this is a grave concern, i have. the way i'll put it is we're facing a two-front war at home not a military war. not a -- tactical war. but an ideological war that is devouring the nation. and then overseas we're facing a serious, serious threat. by a growing country, a country that militarily and economically wants to be second to none and i think they're on their way. and maybe i'm wrong but i want to talk tiewk somebody who is an expert on this retired four star general you're familiar with him he got the metal of freedom last march he deserved it former vice chief of staff of the united states army, he's with the institute for the study of war he's the chairman there. general keane i'm deeply

concerned that while this nation is at war with itself, and the tumult and fundamental transformal efforts even if we're aware that china is growing becoming more and more powerful we're not able to unit ourselves and focus ourselves in addressing. i would be interested in your comments. >> well a couple of things certainly, china from rightfully so was identified by the trump administration in 2017 national security strategy as the most significant strategic threat for the united states in the american people and they identified i think quite correctly the new framework in which the world is facing a big power competition with china. of a visionist russia, two regional powers north korea, and iran and still dealing with radical islam this new administration largely has accepted that strategic framework why, because it is what it is, it is the truth and we've stopped kidding ourselves

about who our adversaries are and what the threat is. the second thing i think that is pretty important here is that the american people have accepted the reality now that china is the most significant threat to american security and to themselves. that holds the view of the majority of the american people. that puts some wind at the back of this new administration. they know full well that their behavior towards china cannot be what it was with the obama/biden administration which for eight years largely appeased china up until very end of it. this administration was essentially same people i may add for our audience to audience that we're in the obama administration doing foreign policy most of this entire foreign policy national security team that biden has was in that previous team so we all have concerns about their tendency to appease our adversaries much more so than would be required

for our own security. but to date, they are sending signals that they get it on china. and they're not changing any of the trump policies for example, the tariff, the sanctions, as a matter of fact they've just in connection withed sanctionings on 24 officials who have something to do with the new laws that are being produced for hong kong that is crushing that democracy, crushing that rule of law there. that was on wednesday prior to meeting with chinese officials this is a significant threat this administration is signaling that they appear to get it. they understand it. what my concern is this, all of that rhetoric is good. they'll look for ways to cooperate with china pandemic, certainly global health, one of their major objectives climb change maybe nuclear proliferation and know we're in

stiff competition economically and militarily. and here's the other one. will they be willing to confront china? they're going to get tested. and coming pretty soon, president xi he has all of his strategic and regional octaves in front of him. he's been unequivocally clear about what they are. he intends to control and dominate the indo pacific region at the expense of the united states and our allies and number two, dominate the world, change international order, and create his own sphere of influence. these are not idle words. these are strategic objectives set by most aggressive most ambitious most malign leader since mall so we have a handful in dealing with president xi the deal for me is this i hear the rhetoric the rhetoric sounds good. i hear what you're doing and

you're reenforcing what trump has done. when the confrontation comes, will we be tough mined enough and have the resolve to deal with that? that i think is an open question based on the practices of the obama and biden administration and foreign security team that is very much in place now. mark: let's talk about confrontation. we had an official in the united states military testify the other week that he believes taiwan will be attacked by communist china some time in next several years we have other experts fear that it could be some time in the next year. then we read information i'm sorry to say, that they've gone through a number of scenarios where the united states military is confronting china after tax taiwan in every single scenario, we lose. okay let's say china taxed taiwan. what are we going to do about it? are we building our military in that area?

are we building up our military generally i don't see it i'm new expert, your and i'm concerned about it. >> you put a finger on major problem we have and most massive campaign in conducted inside the united states -- in the history of foreign intervention dealing with the united states. but the major issue out in the region is certainly this issue that you put your finger on. it is the military issue. here's what i think. the chinese olympics are next year. president xi is not going to do too much to anger international support for what he wants to be a very successful and credible experience that helps to restore the image and public acceptance of china much more so than it is now post world pandemic. but what's happening to us, mark, is that the likelihood of some kind of military action by

president xi to absorb taiwan is increasing every year. although it may not be eminent, the livelihood is that it eventually will happen. here's the problem that we have. the united states military in the region is outdone. they have parking lot -- largest navy period and certainly in the region significantly so. they have more air force aircraft than we have, and they have the largest arsenal of conventional offensive missiles of our nature the navy is better and nape of our air forces are better but the fact that we are outgunned is a problem for us and that's why these war games have suggested that if we have this kind of military challenge, in the war games we actually lose. i have played a war game similar to myself when i was on commission for looking at the national defense strategy of the

united states in 2018. and we concluded this, which is confirmed by the military leaders in the region. that if we had a war with china we would see losses to personnel and high capital assets we have not seen since world war ii. we would be challenged to win and indeed we can lose. so what do we have to do? what we want to do is restore the effective military deterrence that we had. we don't want china to be incentivized by lack that have deterrence by lack of a response inadequate sufficient response by the united states military and our allies which incentivizes them to take this next step. with taiwan -- and so what does that mean number one we need to have more capacity in the region. we need better missile defense for our bases in some cases they're completely vulnerable we need observancive missiles to be able to reach and touch the

batteries that are going to be firing against our ships. and against our bases -- that has to take place. that becomes the start of a deterrent and then we need advance capabilities urgently requested that money is there to get all of this we have to get it quickly. we need advance hypersonic missiles chinese is deployed theirs. these missiles are so devastating if they can swarm and take out a barrier battle group within minutes and we're essentially defenseless against these kind of miss missiles because their speed five time of speed and maneuverability it renders current offenses that we have on our ships and our land bases actually inadequate. so there are challenges and we've got to have a sense of urgency to fix these challenges. all of that said, president xi really does not want to conflict with the united states. because if he does have that

conflict if we do have a war with two major powers like that, all of his strategic octave regional objectives go out the wound and he becomes completely different leader in the history of china and his future development. he wants to get this stuff done by intimidation coercion and weaken united states leadership. so he can continue the march what he's done already in tebet hong kong and he made his his mind he know what is he's doing there and he also wants to observe taiwan and continue this extraordinary, economic and military intimidation of our allies in the region. we have to stand up to that he has to see that we not only have the capability there. this is very important, mark. we don't have deterrence unless

you have two things. one, your adversary somebody like me is looking at the united states capability, and he sees it as real. that is real. that would impose cost on us if we take action. the second thing is, does the united states have the resolve and the spine to actually use it? their vote on that looking at the obama biden administration was one the military capable was being eroded as a result of the declining budgets and 9/11 wars. and number two, they didn't believe for a minute that that administration had the resolve and will to use that capability. we have to make certain that they understand that we will use it. they knew full well that president trump while he was moving quickly to make up for a shortfalls that were handed him in terms of military readiness and capability, he was able to convince the chinese communist leadership that we would indeed

use the capability that we had. mark: my opinion general ass i listen to you and into the break that's a frightening scenario under current circumstances. because in my view, speaking for myself, exactly the wrong man and the wrong office at the wrong time. i'll be right back. when a hailstorm hit, he needed his insurance to get it done right, right away. usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. usaa losing a tooth didn't stop you but your partial can act like a bacteria magnet, usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. putting natural teeth at risk. new polident propartial helps purify your partial and strengthens and protects natural teeth. so, are you gonna lose another tooth? not on my watch! hi guys! check out this side right here. what'd you do? - tell me know you did it. - yeah. get a little closer. that's insane. that's a different car. -that's the same car. - no! yeah, that's before, that's after.

mark: welcome back america general keane china is picking fights with a lot of countries. they're picking fights with vietnam over their waters and picking fights with japan. and i have a question for you in that regard. what is japan doing? i mean japan is right there in the neighborhood. are they beefing their military? >> oh, yes very definitely. first let me deal with this. this whole ally issue that you are mentioning. one of the they thinks that president trump was able to do and he's never going get any credit for it by biden administration for sure is make sure that no allies know that united states has their back and what he did is he revitalized the quad had is -- an informal alliance of japan australia, india and the united

states. three of the four largest economies in the world these are like minded democracies who have one thing common that brought them together. not just a democracies but the threat of china. this was started by president bush 2007 fell dormant during obama biden administration revitalized put teeth into this so much so that military exercises are being conducted together now on a routine basis that is a very good thing and that's all being done in the region under the observation of the chinese communist party and their military. uniting together economically to push back on china which was a powerful thing and of itself given the representation of the country and resist together china is very aggressive offensive cyberwarfare that they're conducting. and of course china has pushed back. you know, they conducted some

serious economic coercion on australia just for criticizing china's participation in a world pandemic. they've also started squirmishes on indian border this actually has strengthened alliance because india always having been a neutral country was in this alliance initially a little light footed in it. not as committed as the other three nations. but since china's aggressiveness took hold under trump administration they are in a full players and that's a good thing. from a presidential trump went to india, and was received in a significant head of state visit he solidified in the participation so using our allies in region you mentioned vietnam. we have a pretty decent relationship with vietnam. vietnam cannot stand what china is doing i was in vietnam talking to leaders pane i'll tell you what commune communist

ideology similar to be sure but it stops right there. they are fed up with china's absolute intimidation and coercion of their fishing right which is they are involved in every single day. japan's military is beefing up, they're getting united states f35, they are increasing the military defense missile defense capability, obviously, to be able to deal with china's offensive conventional missile capability which i mentioned earlier and they're also increasing their navy. and this is all very significant because remember, post warld world war ii china by decree had to voluntarily as part of our agreements with them, give up any offensive military capability whatsoever and only have defense in that even for many years have been modest in japan so this is a big deal what the japanese are doing.

now this administration to their credit has already had discussions with this quad group and president biden participated in the discussions to be frank about it, that surprised me. and what they are saying is that this revitalized alliance which president trump initiated is something they want to participate in and they likely want to increase it and strengthen it. that is a good thing. our allies really matter in the region and they've been under the gun for so many years when president trump came in and started to get, take their back and get our military capability out there so they can see it and change our rhetoric in dealing with the chinese communist party speak frequently about their abuses. that began to change in terms of the strengthen of the spine of our allies. remember china is about intimidation and coercion they want to break your will. they don't want to have to fight you that's what they're largely about and that's -- that is what is happening i

don't to be poly-- about this it is to see how strong and how much resolve this administration really has -- mark: you know when joe biden says during an interview, that basically there's serious cultural differences between the two countries and that's his answer to these massive death camps that are taking place in china. that is a worrisome sign, of course. general keane when we come back address another area of the world, iran, iran is on the move. they are working very hard to get their nuclear missiles built. the administration is now backdooring apparently negotiating with iranian government moneys have been sent to the iranian government. with a smile or nod by our government. and i'm wondering if you're concerned about this considering that the trump administration, i think, had that regime really on its knees economically with its

very, very severe sanctions and withdraw from the deal which you agreed with and circle back when we come back and discuss that with you. we'll be right back.

mark: welcome to fox news live i'm jon scott people across the south are intra'sing tonight for another likely round of severe weather. meteorologist warn nature's one two punch could hit tennessee especially hard in the coming

hours or overnight as deadly storm system moves towards the northeast. georgia and alabama already have been pummeled by tornadoes heavy rain, and flooding. at least six people are known dead. swelling number of unaccompany children prompted grouch mostly democratic lawmakers to visit texas today. they've toured a processing facility in el paso, delegation of republicans went there yesterday to get an up close look. the number of children in u.s. custody has now grown to more than 18,000. border patrol expect more to follow as the weather continues to get warmer. i'm jon scott now back to "life, liberty & levin." welcome back america one of them is iran general keane i see a really -- a change here. look like this administration clearly wants to reopen the iran deal. and it looks like they're going

to take a completely different attack than trump administration you saw peace breaking out in the middle east with abraham accords and how the gulf arab states are uniting many cases uniting with israel against the common enemy. are you concerned what about the administration is doing in this regard? >> well we said in the previous segment that so many initial steps that biden administration has taken in regards to china are encouraging because they're strengthening and doing exactly what the previous administration had done. this area here gives me a lot of concern. and i believe if this administration is going to make a strategic blunder early on it is going to be right here over iran. and now why do i say that? it is because of what they're already saying and doing. number one it was well advertised that they want to go back into the nuclear deal during the campaign it has been stated since president biden has and office as well. they have said, very different

things on one hand they said we want to lengthen and strengthen deal means improve it. and that was clearly what the trump administration would have wanted to do if they negotiated with iranians. but also the same time, they seem to indicate that they're willing to give up some sanctions for iranians to come back in and negotiate with them. which makes no sense, i mean, this administration whether they would have sanctioned iran or not the fact is they significantly are, their economy is crippled back on heals as a result of it it is a huge leverage it is number one thing that iranians want from us. so why give it up? before we get what we want? and secondly, the other issue is that the singles they have sent inside the region you know, here's what they've done. they have paused the military

arm sales to saudi arabia and the uae. despite the fact they've come to the same conclusion that president trump did when it comes to the kingdom of saudi arabia and muhammad, and that is do no harm to the relationship despite the significant disapproval of the horrific act of killing the journalist. >> it came from the same conclusion let's keep that relationship going but why are you freezing weapons to them and to the uae. other thing they've done is pulled away from designation of the houthis and support for the war against houthis by united states it was modest actually we were helping them do target and intelligence to minimize civilian casualty as a result of their air bombing campaign but why would we send signals to ann i cans so early on in this administration that we're pulling away from our allies

which was the policy of the obama administration for eight years in the middle east so iranians are saying this administration look very similar to what we were dealing with the last time. they look like they're going to want a deal more than anything else so that iranian will come in and be very tough negotiator which they have a history of doing. and they have a history of succeeding against the united states. that's what concerns me here. that we'll put together a deal that kind of look like old deal and is not holding iran accountable for what -- for very aggressive malign behavior in the region for the fact that developing ballistic missiles and we want to be able to inspect them anywhere any time, and for the life of me, the sunset clauses we have that gives them a nuclear weapon in ten years from now. certainly they have to be removed. we want to prohibit them having

nuclear weapons so the signals we're getting from administration are mixed. and i don't feel the same sense of encouragement here that they're going to figure out how to do this. i think they're listening to the europeans that u.k. germany, and france more so than the the arab and that should be helping them in terms of guiding them forward. mark: i agree this is difficult and brought in a wendy sherman he's deputy secretary of state. she was the key architect of this deal and i want my audience to know that three republicans on foreign relation committee including romney and portman voted for her. this is the worst deal imaginable. it is not even a deal it should be a treaty. and reason they didn't go through the treaty mechanism is because they didn't have the votes to get it approved in the united states senate. so they circumvented that process under obama that's the so-called deal that we're dealing with. general keane i want to thank you very, very much, and

everybody knows why you got the medal of freedom because if you don't get it nobody should get it god bless you and take care of yourself, sir. >> thank you very much, mark. mark: we'll be right back.

system, and take control. tom holman is that's kind of what's going on today? >> absolutely what's going on you're correct. the biden administration is still trying to blame president trump for what's going on on the border right now. they're ignoring the fact that i don't care if you love the president trump or hate him you cannot deny fact that he gave us the most secure border in my career which is almost 35 years. i started in 1984 as a border patrol agent i spent entire career on border enforcement and immigration enforce m and president trump got it right. he had unprecedented success on that border. he got agreements with central america no other president was able to get he got agreements from mexico mexico finally stand up and protect southern border and he had remain in mexico program which was great out of box thinking because president trump understood that 90 prkt of the central americans that come asylum never get released from u.s. courts because they simply don't qualify.

that is easily available in department of justice website anybody can look at it. and i doubt president biden has looked at it or alejandro looked tat because if they did, then they're facilitating immigration for on border just ignore that. 90% of central americans don't get release that claim asylum if you look at the department of homeland security life support less than 3% of all central american who is give order removed by federal judge, have left this country. so knowing that 90% don't qualify, and less than 3% leave us order by federal judge, what is your answer? open the border, let them come in this is incompetence this isn't foolishness this is by design mark i said it, i said back in july 20 i wrote op-ed saying joe biden become president we lose the border joe biden has sold out this country to progressive left to win an election and different during

the first alejandro mayorkas is a different person when he was deputy secretary. they know what causes surge they know how to stop them because i was there and we stopped it. they're doing a complete opposite and to stop this surge and how do we stop in 14, 15 many mr. mayorkas was deputy secretary we built thousands of them and held people long enough to see a judge and let i.c.e. remove them and we took away the enticements. what are they doing now? they're not detaining them releasing as soon as they can within three days, i.c.e. has been decapitated they lost 909% of their authority nair not executing judges orders and we keep throwing out more enticements this isn't incompetence this is by design tbp this was open borders agenda that we all knew was coming. mark: what you're saying that we actually have a president, we have a secretary of homeland security. and other officials in the biden administration that are affirmatively violating federal

law and they know they are violating federal law. and they think by blaming donald trump, that the american people are going to believe it is donald trump's fault when donald trump has been and was the most aggressive advocate for securing southern border in my lifetime and didn't just advocate it but he actually did it and i think you're exactly right. we see the hard left that doesn't believe in a sovereign united states that doesn't believe in a southern border. we see something else that is enormously cynical beginning on here in the media know it. but they're so krupght they won't report it and democrat party knows that the more people who come in here and are not assimilated into our country and how can they be given what they're doing in our schools and so forth, the more likely it is that once they receive legal status and citizenship they're going vote democrat that's been -- the pattern over the last several decades. so this is a act that's

happening here are the kids being treated prop orally as a result of the great humane process that's in process from the biden administration? >> no what they're doing look, the policies of biden administration let me be clear. they have given a green light to child traffickers, a green light to sex traffickers look no one is celebrating more the biden winning the election than criminal cartels in mexico. since they're bag in business. the children under trump administration they say they still talk about this secretary still talking about family separation 2500. that were separated to parents and prosecuted like every u.s. citizen family family gets prosecuted they get separated what they don't talk about is right now over 15,000 children in custody of hhs or sitting in border patrol stations who parents chose, chose to hire criminal organization and smuggle child to united states and no one talk talks about that inhumanity and secretary said

loving parents sending their kids to the border. are you serious? loving parents don't put their kid in the arm of criminal organizations. the children are coming across now they're going to be put in license day care and in the government is going to complete the because they have to get their child to the border. the u.s. government will pay the rest of the trip to get them to reunite in very people that can criminal organizations to have them here. this -- in the history of this nation, mark, we have a president that is facilitating illegal immigration on the border so there's no consequence there's no returns. when you open the gates let them in and release them knowing they're never going to leave facilitating criminal cartels making millions of dollars facilitating the sexual assault which is 31% of women make this trip sexual assaulted. children are going to die. mark my word. i've been there i've seen it and president trump guy on my left shoulder here he got if. why because you listen to those

on the border patrol and listen to guys like me spent their career doing this and he secured our border. this president right now is not talking to anybody. after the testimony yesterday that you got 60 to 80,000 law enforcement officer who is feel abandoninged by this administration their morale is in the toilet because they know they cannot do their job and keep up the defend this nation and secure our border. >> unbelievable what's going own there. inhumanity, inhumanity the child abuse, that has been caused by this president. the same president who stood behind teachers unions who have stood in front of the schoolhouse doors to prevent our children from being educated. so much more the left and democrat party and this president caring about children. we'll be right back.

mark: welcome back tom homan former director. director none this have acting stuff of i.c.e. -- people are coming across this border they're not being tested for various diseases and so forth you know in the old days you kopght get into this country if you have some kind of a disease -- if you didn't have a way to pay for yourself and so forth we talk about ellis island all of the days of ellis island. today it is come across no matter what. what's going on? >> look we know all that there's a couple of hundred illegal

immigrants across that border that were released into our community that is bout of covid we know that but what we don't know is right now look at the border patrol data, they're saying they have to where thousands a day a thousand over a thousand. what are these? these are people that set off centers and cram traffic and drone traffic, and foot traffic that border patrol can't respond to because they're too busy changing doctors making baby formula and transportation and family groups. in the border patrol clearly said 40% of their manpower is no longer on the line so families turn themselves over to border patrol and released with uac with a phone number where they're going and adult males bad guys, the drugs -- they're coming to the ports, i mean, the parts of the border where there's no border patrol agents because they're tied up with family group. a thousand got today how many of them are affected with covid we don't know how many are members we know during the last family surge, that 62,000 americans died from opioid overdoses so

come coming across that because it was vulnerable and covid is just most recent disease. disease comes across that border every day we've had to shut down for chickenpox and measles, i remember when i was instructed one person in custody with a rare form of tb that it was -- wouldn't react to any known drug so we worked department of texas department of health we worked with cdc trying to have a cocktail to treat this person with tb what if he was released into the community? does comes across that border every day. and border patrol is not testing for covid. the federal government dhs is counting on local communities to do the testing. we know it is not being done everywhere this, you know, they say they care about this covid pandemic. they want to lock us down we wear mask, however, screaming across border with no test and released into the united states not only that, once these people get to their destination because they've been know to a judge

they qualify for more. there's no compete for some of the low -- from the mid to low level jobs that many americans would like to have right now. so it is not only a health concern. it's a competing with american workers and high unemployment situation we're currently in. this is -- this is presidential -- this is presidential administration turned their backs on hardworking americans who are trying to abide by covid rules or trying to, you know, go out there find a job in a tough period. they've been thrown under a bus by this administration. glak at a time i think we forget the purpose of immigration the purpose of immigration is to support the citizens of the united states and the objectives of the citizens of the united states. america doesn't belong to joe biden or the democrat party. it doesn't belong to the immigration activists, it doesn't belong to foreign governments, and foreign individual. belongs to the american citizens. and our leaders are supposed to represent the american citizens. not would be citizens not people

who want to be citizens. and there's nothing humane about what's going on in the southern border. there's nothing right about violating our federal laws. joe biden didn't run on this. joe biden didn't tell the truth. he didn't say he would open the borders and be a flood of people coming into this country. they're preventing the media from going into these detention centers which they now call reception centers. from showing us exactly what's going on because what's going on is a disaster. tom i want to thank you for your past service and i want to thank you for coming on this show and god bless you my friend. >> thank you mark, keep up the fight. mark: we'll be right back. car g, she didn't waste any time. she filed a claim on her usaa app and said, “that was easy.” usaa. what you're made of, we're made for. usaa. allergies don't have to be scary.

if these beautiful idaho potat, then i'm not a real idaho potato farmer. genuine idaho potatoes not just a side dish anymore. always look for the grown in idaho seal. mark: welcome back, america. what kinds of country have we become? are we a federal republic? no, we don't respect federalism and state authority. we are moving towards

centralization of authority, author tear cranism. are we a representative republican. we have very little say what's going on particularly with the way congress is conducting itself without hearings and with fences and the national guard surrounding it. are we a constitutional republic? not so much. so many aspects of the constitution, its firewalls, have been breached. it doesn't enforce the constitution of the united states. if we are not a federal republic and representative republic, or constitutional republic, what are we? i wrote this book, "liberty and tyranny." are we for liberty or are we for tyranny. tyranny isn't a far-off concept any more.

tyranny is swirling around us. we better wake up to this. we better find out ways to confront it or it will devour all of us. see you next time on "life, liberty & levin." [♪♪♪] jesse: welcome to "watters' world." i'm jesse watters. you are getting played. that's the subject of tonight's watters words. president biden didn't hold a press conference. it was a play put on by biden and the media for the benefit of the democratic party. everything was scripted. questions written in advance by the news executives. the actors are so bad you can tell they are acting. the audience is cringing
