It's like later that evening, it's close. 186 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 4: I don't even know what time it was, and I'm outside, 187 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 4: I'm waiting for my ride and there's the Capital just 188 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,680 Speaker 4: shimmering there. It's like, this is how can you not 189 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 4: be romantic about it? I'm driving back afterwards. The Capital 190 00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 4: is to my left ord d I forget the street 191 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 4: right now, there's the Supreme Court on the right.

So I realize I'm behind 194 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,679 Speaker 4: the president. So if you were staring, if you were 195 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 4: looking directly at the president, I was upper left, so 196 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 4: I could not see the president while he was speaking, 197 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 4: and the acoustics were not perfect. It's better when you 198 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 4: watch it on TV. You care more when you're on TV. 199 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 4: The acoustics are not great. I miss some things, but 200 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 4: I the way the the the chamber split the Republicans. 201 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 4: If you're staring at the president, the Republicans are on 202 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 4: the right and the Progressives are on the left, which 203 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 4: means the Progressives were right in front of me. 204 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 3: And I was able to get a. 205 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 4: Bird's eye view of speaking of facial expressions of motions 206 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 4: from today's Democratic Party, complete view who was directly in 207 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 4: my line of sight? 208 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:37,400 Speaker 3: I mean, if if you were if. 209 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 4: You don't think you're looking straight down, you're looking you're 210 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 4: looking out right, You're looking out like. 211 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,599 Speaker 3: Over a view or over a over a vista.

There was no hoodie. Then 223 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,440 Speaker 4: we also spy. I did see Michael Knowles. I didn't 224 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,440 Speaker 4: get to say hi.

That was like, 227 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 3: like we're three quarters to the speech. I turned. This 228 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,439 Speaker 3: guy next to me, didn't know. We don't know each other. 229 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 4: Like that's the guy from Shark Tank, isn't it. He 230 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 4: was a He had better seats than me. I don't 231 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 4: know what that's all about. Do I start wearing two watches? Now, ridiculous, 232 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 4: But I have this. 233 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 3: Like, all right, I'm. 234 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 4: Sad that I can't see the facial expressions the Trump 235 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 4: and everything else and see how he's he's uh, you know, 236 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 4: gearing up for things and ramping up for things. But 237 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 4: I'm like, this is this is what Trump sees. This 238 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 4: is what he's looking at. This is a very cool 239 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 4: way to see the speech. Now, if you're not somebody 240 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,199 Speaker 4: who does what I do for a living, I think 241 00:13:13,240 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 4: you're infuriated. 242 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 3: I get invited to the State of the Union and 243 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 3: what's this. I can't see anything and this is ridiculous. 244 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 3: I am there. 245 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 4: There's this brass rail, right, There's this brass rail there, 246 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 4: and I'm trying to like a giant bottle of water, 247 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:29,719 Speaker 4: I'll pretend it's the brass rail, and I'm like this, 248 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:40,080 Speaker 4: I am delighted. I am tickled by what I am 249 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 4: seeing until I start seeing what I'm seeing. Now. I'm 250 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 4: going to start somewhere in the middle because I want 251 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 4: to be clear that Representative Ilhan Omar called President Trump 252 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 4: a sick blank. It starts with the letter F on 253 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,480 Speaker 4: the floor while he was speaking. I think he was 254 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 4: talking about the Somalis and fraud in Minneapolis. 255 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,679 Speaker 3: I think that was the moment she called him a 256 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 3: sick blank. She did what she did. It happened. 257 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 4: Everyone's talking about the yelling out, everyone's talking about how 258 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 4: they were shouting out and the rest. So we are 259 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 4: clear she called him a sick blank. And those two 260 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 4: did not stop squawking. They didn't stop, they didn't get 261 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 4: close to stopping. 262 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,000 Speaker 3: It was nuts. 263 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 4: And for some things, they weren't the only ones. But 264 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 4: if any Democrat was trying to listen, you couldn't. And 265 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 4: there was there was one moment where some member the 266 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 4: Democratic part I don't I don't know her, I don't 267 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 4: know her name. 268 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 3: She's turned. 269 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 4: So let let's say she's facing this way, right, facing 270 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 4: this way, right here. She's turned to face the Republicans 271 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 4: to her, to her right, and she is yelling. 272 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 3: She's in a full yell. 273 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: And all I hear is Anna Paulina Luna, who's sitting 274 00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:37,000 Speaker 4: next to Tim Burchett, and and and Lauren Bobert. So 275 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 4: for Congressman Tim Burchett. Nice seating, nice nice story, Producier 276 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 4: landing a little something, please for a Representative Burchette promo, 277 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 4: well done, well well played. All I hear her say 278 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 4: is turn around, turn around. 279 00:15:55,040 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 3: It got loud, loud, It was. 280 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:08,960 Speaker 4: As much as one should be in this place and 281 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 4: be like, I can't believe this is this is These 282 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,280 Speaker 4: people are so fortunate they get to do what they 283 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 4: do in this place that we are, in this nation 284 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 4: that we have. It is truly awe inspiring. And this 285 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 4: is how they act. I gotta admit that was not cool. 286 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 4: So what God said at the State of the Union, 287 00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 4: what do we take from it? 288 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 3: And why does it matter? 289 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 4: We should be clear Democrats had a really bad night, 290 00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,240 Speaker 4: and if Republicans are smart, they'll make it last. 291 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,960 Speaker 3: This is Tony Katz today. 292 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 4: I am not afraid of AI. I think we should 293 00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 4: be aware there's a real difference in the things. And 294 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 4: certainly I don't ever want to pretend that somehow this 295 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:08,800 Speaker 4: all isn't coming. 296 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 3: It's all coming, it's all heading down the road. 297 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 4: It's all gonna hit us directly in the face. Tony Katz, 298 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,840 Speaker 4: Tony Katz today, good to be with you. I came 299 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:29,719 Speaker 4: across this piece about betting against AI. I think it 300 00:17:29,800 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 4: was the Wall Street Journal that there are people out 301 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 4: there trying to short AI stocked. I'm not just talking 302 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 4: about Michael Burry. Michael Burry is the guy who the 303 00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 4: movie The Big Short made famous about betting against the 304 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 4: housing market, and he's betting against Nvidia and Palanteer. 305 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 3: That's a stock play. That's not my point. 306 00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 4: That's not what I'm getting at. Rather, I'm discussing whether 307 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 4: or not people are betting against AI as. 308 00:18:12,920 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 3: A force. 309 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 4: Utilization. It was a story like this, you know, over 310 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 4: to the Wall Street Journal. The market's AI obsession is 311 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 4: starting to bring. 312 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 3: Out the bears. 313 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 4: Well, when you have quite literally trillions of dollars in 314 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 4: AI investment, there are gonna be people be like, you 315 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,159 Speaker 4: know what, overkill, There's gonna be a correction. 316 00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 3: I want in on. 317 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:38,800 Speaker 4: That that standard stuff. I'm asking about people betting against AI. 318 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,639 Speaker 4: And what I'm really concerned about are politicos trying to 319 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 4: thwart AI because we're already seeing the mob mentality on 320 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 4: AI when you see the viciousness against data centers. I 321 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 4: am not saying that every city should have a data center. 322 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 4: I'm not saying that every state should be a state 323 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 4: that is supportive of data centers. I am saying that 324 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 4: the mom mentality against data centers is ridiculous. It's ridiculous, 325 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,240 Speaker 4: and it's on the right as well as it's on 326 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,440 Speaker 4: the left, and it is it's nonsense. 327 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:11,919 Speaker 3: It is all nimby. 328 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 4: Get off my lawn, everybody who is anti data center 329 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 4: and this mob mentality is nothing more than a Karen 330 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 4: upset that they didn't get a second scoop of ice 331 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 4: cream or big enough second scoop. If Basket Robinson wants 332 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 4: to speak to a manager, that's my concern. 333 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 3: I'll talk more about it because it's Tony thoughts to me. 334 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 2: They never had to prove that propot to prove that 335 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 2: point here with us tonight. 336 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 3: It's a group of winners who just made the entire nation. 337 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 4: Crowd, the men's gold medal Olympic hockey. 338 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 3: Team come on here and the doors open up in 339 00:19:58,000 --> 00:19:59,959 Speaker 3: their USA sweaters. 340 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 4: And Trump looking over at the Democrats saying, I need 341 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 4: nothing you could do to stop me. 342 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 3: Kitten, I let you out of your mind. This was 343 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 3: some seriously loud cheering in the room. It was. It 344 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:33,680 Speaker 3: was very cool. 345 00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,120 Speaker 4: Tony Katz, Tony Katz today, Good to be here, Good 346 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 4: to be with you if you ask, you know, like 347 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 4: I could say his speech went an hour forty seven minutes. 348 00:20:54,240 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 4: I would have liked for it to been shorter. But 349 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 4: the purpose and the point of it all was these moments. 350 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 4: The Medal of Honor recipients, the Medal of Freedom recipients. 351 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:12,639 Speaker 4: Look at these people who have fought for us and 352 00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 4: got wounded for us. Look at the let us notice them. 353 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 4: The mother of Irina Sarutska, Arina Serrutska, who was stabbed 354 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 4: to death on that light rail in Charlotte. The parents 355 00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:32,359 Speaker 4: of National Guard troops who were shot and killed while 356 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 4: patrolling Washington, d C. And awarding them possimously the purple heart. 357 00:21:39,920 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 4: Trump does an extremely good job of. 358 00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 3: We never forget. 359 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,160 Speaker 4: But what we are discussing is the idea of rallying 360 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 4: around us, that we are good, that we do things 361 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,760 Speaker 4: that are good, that we remember those who do good, 362 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 4: That we celebrate victory, we celebrate strength, we celebrate dominance, 363 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 4: we celebrate power, we celebrate decency, We celebrate this American 364 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 4: experience and these Americans, and so we should. 365 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 3: And what it creates is the massive contrast to. 366 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 4: A left that despises all these things, that never wants 367 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 4: to celebrate, It always wants to denigrate these things. This 368 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 4: was about uplift. 369 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 3: This wasn't just. 370 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 4: About Hey, come to the White House and bring me 371 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 4: a hockey sweater and we'll we'll and we'll, we'll, we'll, 372 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 4: we'll take a photo would be great. 373 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:38,640 Speaker 2: Now, this. 374 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,879 Speaker 4: This was about this is American awesome. You know how 375 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 4: good America is doing. Gold medal against Canada and overtime. 376 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 4: That's how we're doing. And not just the men, the 377 00:22:50,880 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 4: women first. Huge celebrate victory, all right ahead. The left 378 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:08,679 Speaker 4: doesn't celebrate victory. The left doesn't celebrate strength. So that 379 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 4: was a huge part of this. Here is a US 380 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 4: I believe it was an army captain. I don't want 381 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 4: to get the brand wrong. He's one hundred years old 382 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 4: and for his service in lasting in Vietnam, he's now 383 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:36,200 Speaker 4: going to get the Medal of Freedom. The place went nuts. 384 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 4: The place went out of its mind when that took place. 385 00:23:54,000 --> 00:24:09,119 Speaker 4: There were these two different moments where Trump presented the 386 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 4: Medal of Honor. The Medal of Honor honors to the military, 387 00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:15,920 Speaker 4: freedom is to civilians. And two people got a Medal 388 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 4: of Honor last night. Army Chief Warrant Officer Eric Slover. 389 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 4: He got the decoration for how he handled and dealt 390 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,560 Speaker 4: with things in the capture of Nicholas Maduro. I did 391 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 4: not know that helicopters were shot at to the point 392 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 4: where people were hit repeatedly. 393 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 3: And let me tell you where I was sitting at 394 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: the State of the Union. 395 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 4: This guy was not there near where the First Lady 396 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 4: is where they usually received guests and notice. 397 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:51,480 Speaker 3: People and mentioned people. 398 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 4: No, no, no, He was straight ahead of me because 399 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 4: he couldn't get through those doors and down those stairs. 400 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 4: He needed the landing because he's got the boot. He's 401 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 4: in a walker. What you didn't see is you didn't 402 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 4: see two generals, generals help this guy down from the 403 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 4: walker to sit down into his wheelchair where he was 404 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 4: wincing in pain, real pain. It must have been a 405 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:19,119 Speaker 4: real pain to stand there on the walker. We have 406 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 4: no idea how much he was clearly injured. It was 407 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 4: President Trump tell us the story last night. That guy 408 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 4: got some applause, But Navy captain. It was a Navy, 409 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 4: not army. Navy captain Elmer Royce Williams receiving the Medal 410 00:25:45,760 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 4: of Honor on I don't think I I heard more 411 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 4: applause than that. I don't think there was more applause 412 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 4: for anything than that guy who was smiling. I don't 413 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 4: know if you can go beyond ear to ear. It's 414 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:20,840 Speaker 4: one hundred right, it's one hundred years old, and here 415 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:26,439 Speaker 4: he is with his country saying we see you and 416 00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 4: thank you. It's it was a moment, and it was 417 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 4: if we're going to engage this politically, which we do, 418 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 4: an absolute win on every level for Trump, for Republicans, 419 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 4: for America. The left has no way to counter what 420 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:59,440 Speaker 4: our actual joy and vibes. You know, we're in the 421 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 4: narrative right, we are in the silly narrative season where 422 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 4: the left ones to tell us what it is. We're thinking, try, 423 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 4: try all you want. We've been through this. We're not 424 00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 4: buying into this anymore. You know what we saw. We 425 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 4: saw a US hockey team, guys just starting their lives, 426 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,639 Speaker 4: celebrating like guys do. 427 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 3: And then we saw a guy who could be close 428 00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 3: to the same age. 429 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 4: We took a different path, didn't play hockey, but put 430 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 4: on a uniform, served his country and almost lost his life. 431 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 4: Still can't stand without the use of a walker, received 432 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 4: the honor for putting himself on the line for us. 433 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 4: And then we saw that America doesn't forget with a 434 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 4: retired Navy captain who's one hundred years old. If you 435 00:27:56,640 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 4: can't understand those visuals and recognize that those visuals connect 436 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,399 Speaker 4: and recognize that Democrats don't have anything. 437 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 3: What are they going to show us? 438 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 4: They gonna show us another member of Congress who's a 439 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:14,399 Speaker 4: man who claims to be a woman. What possibly are 440 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,920 Speaker 4: they going to show us? You know, they had counterprogramming, 441 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 4: programming of the State of the Union. They had a 442 00:28:20,840 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 4: guy in a giraffe costume screaming at everybody. 443 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 3: What you think are gonna make that up? 444 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 4: You think I could ever possibly come up with the 445 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 4: words of my own? Yeah, so this guy's wearing a 446 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 4: giraffe costume. No, no, no, no, that doesn't happen. If 447 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 4: you ever hear me say so there's this guy in 448 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 4: a giraffe costume, you could be rest assured that my 449 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,320 Speaker 4: next line is, hey, well, bring the bomb back over here. 450 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 3: That's what's happening. So we're all clear. 451 00:28:55,320 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 4: The uh messaging was knockout stuff, knockout stuff, And that 452 00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 4: was the points. Why bring in the family of Areno 453 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 4: Zarutska because this woman was killed because Democrats won't do 454 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 4: anything about crime. Why bring us young girls who were 455 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 4: transitioned by schools and then put into a kind of 456 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 4: a prison esque system where she was housed with boys 457 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 4: that she was physically abused because adults did this to her, 458 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 4: and Democrats support it because as we are going to 459 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 4: get into wait till you see what they cheered and 460 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 4: what they didn't cheer. It was good messaging, but nothing 461 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,960 Speaker 4: beat the messaging of you know, things are going well 462 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 4: right now. I will argue that things are not going perfect. 463 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:58,560 Speaker 4: I will argue when the president says inflation's down to 464 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 4: one point seven percent, big mistake. Don't do that first. 465 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 4: Inflation's not down to one point seven percent. I don't 466 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 4: care what Scott Besson says. And by the way, in 467 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 4: every single conversation I have with anyone who has ever 468 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 4: been connected to Besson's, they say what I absolutely believe 469 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,400 Speaker 4: to be true. Scott Besson is the adult in the room. 470 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:23,720 Speaker 4: That guy is spectacular. I wholeheartedly agree. But don't tell 471 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 4: me inflation's under control. Why because it's a dumb thing 472 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 4: to say. When inflation goes up next month. Now you're 473 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 4: stuck with those words. We're working every day to bring 474 00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:39,560 Speaker 4: inflation down, to keep inflation under control, really focused now 475 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 4: we think that interest rate should be lower, and shame 476 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 4: on Jerome Powell for not helping to spur more economy, 477 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 4: and shame on Democrats. And Trump did say this, why 478 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 4: do they shut down the government? They cost us two 479 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 4: points of GDP? Two points of GDP they cost us. 480 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 4: Why do you think they're shutting things down with the 481 00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 4: Department of Homeland Security? They want to hurt the country, 482 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 4: perfectly said, line perfectly said. But you bring all these 483 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 4: people up to show the divide first. You bring people 484 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 4: up to show America's might, America's success, and America supporting 485 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 4: and cheering the might and success. We're not embarrassed by it. 486 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 4: We think it's freaking awesome. We like the success. We 487 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 4: want the success. We want more success.
