Belisario then asked the students, “What issue facing America is the most important to you?”

“What bikini I’m gonna wear next,” said one woman.

“Obesity is terrible,” responded another.

“ICE. Not personally. I’m legal,” one man clarified.

“Getting a tan on the beach,” shared one woman.

“I’m thinking about Starbucks, to be honest,” one woman admitted. “What I’m gonna get for today.”

One student said the most important issue facing the US is the fact that “the elevators don’t work.”

“Gulf of America,” one woman said. “That’s the last thing I kept up with.”

Belisario then told the spring breakers that they must be happy that the Ayatollah was no longer a threat.

“What? What is that?” one woman asked, while a man said, “Who the f**k is Ayatollah?”

“I’ve never heard that word in my life,” another woman admitted.

“I never heard. I found out about Chuck Norris yesterday. That was more devastating to me,” another student responded, referring to the iconic action film star who passed away last week.

Belisario asked the students to imagine they were presidents of the United States for one day. “How would you take on Iran?”

“We’d get a bunch of girls in bikinis and make them run across the battlefield,” one man said. “All the guys are distracted. We all run in and brrr,” he added, making sniper motions with his hands.

“Look him in the eyes, I guess. Flirt with him,” one woman responded.

Other students suggested more aggressive war tactics. “I don’t know enough about it, but I would probably wipe it out,” a man said.

“Drop a b*mb, baby. B*mb the sh*t out of them,” one woman added.

The next question was, “What have you heard about Venezuela?”

“Venezuela? Nothing,” one woman admitted.

“That they beat us in the world baseball classic,” a separate student said.

Another student added, “Nothing. I have heard nothing about Venezuela.”

When Belisario asked the spring breakers where the country was located, answers included “I don’t know” and “Venezuela is not in Spain?”

In the comments, reactions ranged from concern to surprise and amusement.

“University level education and not having a clue where countries are while calling for ‘b*mbing’ and ‘wiping out’ Iran? Venezuela in Spain??” one viewer said on X.

Johnny Belisario also asked the spring breakers how they would “take on Iran”

“I wish I could be shocked. This is America’s future,” another viewer lamented.

“It is so bad that I thought it had to be AI!” someone else joked.

“Good thing they weren’t asked about Alexis de Tocqueville,” quipped a fourth viewer.

In the comments, many viewers were curious to know whether the students in the video represented “the average American”

Others were more careful about jumping to conclusions about the country’s future professionals. “They go and film a bunch of people and then air what is funniest.”

“No. Just college kids at the beach man,” suggested another.
