Does the guy at 0:20-:0:25 does not pronounce preposition "to' between "just" and "have" [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyGjs_bBMBA&t=120s]? I'm struggling to hear "to" but it seems to me that it;'s dropped. Moreover it appears that he drops "h" in "have" so that he say "ave". Is it a case here?

He doesn't. He says "to just", then pauses, then says "have". It's a split infinitive.

It's a particle not a preposition.

Sorry for asking this question again. I do not hear "to" even at a very very slow speed. Can ommision of "to" infinitive be the case here? (like in this online article)? Thank you again for paying attention to that question.

Are you sure you got the time stamp right? Can you write down the sentence in question please?

It is the end of 0:20 and the beginning of 0:25. The sentence is (as I hear it)" ...you want us just have an argument... ".

Do you hear as the native speaker in the other way? Thank you very much.

No. Don't worry that you can't make out what he says. It's almost impossible to hear the word to distinctly.
