<v Speaker 1>on this Tuesday night edition of Breaking with Brett Jenson.

0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:44.280
<v Speaker 1>Already been corrected a couple of times today because I

0:00:44.280 --> 0:00:47.640
<v Speaker 1>thought today was Wednesday. But if anyone who's ever listened

0:00:47.680 --> 0:00:50.519
<v Speaker 1>to this show for more than three months will know

0:00:50.600 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>that I get my days mixed up all the time.

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 1>A Monday, to me is no different than a Thursday.

0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:59.720
<v Speaker 1>Like they're all the same. They're all the same for

0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:01.800
<v Speaker 1>the way I do my what I what I do

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.760
<v Speaker 1>for a job standpoint, they're literally the exact same day.

0:01:05.959 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>So I thought today was Wednesday, but obviously it's not.

0:01:09.040 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Today is Tuesday. And by the way, to get in

0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>on the show seven oh four or five seven oh

0:01:14.240 --> 0:01:16.399
<v Speaker 1>one oh seven nine, that is also the WBT text

0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>line driven by Liberty Buick GMC. So there's a few

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:25.280
<v Speaker 1>different things we're going to get into tonight, but I

0:01:25.319 --> 0:01:28.120
<v Speaker 1>want to start off with something that Mecklmore County put

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.480
<v Speaker 1>out there, and then I think I was the first

0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:33.679
<v Speaker 1>reporter to put it out there. And it's not like

0:01:33.720 --> 0:01:35.759
<v Speaker 1>I was breaking news. I was just the first one

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>to put it out there because Mecklimore County sent us,

0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:43.600
<v Speaker 1>the Mecklimore County Health Department sent us an email. And

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why nobody else decided to put it

0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.120
<v Speaker 1>out there, but I put it out there, and then

0:01:49.600 --> 0:01:52.160
<v Speaker 1>about five ten minutes later, everyone else started putting it

0:01:52.160 --> 0:01:55.880
<v Speaker 1>out there. All right, all this how this works? But

0:01:55.880 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm used to that by now. But anyways, it's base

0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>and there's a story to go along with this. And

0:02:04.000 --> 0:02:10.280
<v Speaker 1>the Michaelmore County Health Department put out an update on

0:02:10.320 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 1>the cyclosporasus uh sportsias spor sporasus, sporasus sports. I have

0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:20.160
<v Speaker 1>no idea how they pronounce it. Sporasus. Is that what

0:02:20.200 --> 0:02:23.600
<v Speaker 1>it is? Sparrisus? Okay, thank you. So I'm just gonna

0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:25.040
<v Speaker 1>read you a little bit of the email, and then

0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 1>I got something to tell you. Michaelmore County Public Health

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:36.519
<v Speaker 1>continues to monitor the ongoing I'll just say, the uh

0:02:37.000 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 1>parasite how about that parasite parasite illness, because that's what

0:02:41.520 --> 0:02:47.440
<v Speaker 1>it is. It's it's a little tiny bug parasite. Continues

0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:53.239
<v Speaker 1>to monitor the parasite illness outbreak and will update case

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:59.800
<v Speaker 1>data every Tuesday, so today's Tuesday. As of July twenty first,

0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>there are twenty nine cases in Mecklinmore County and four hospitalizations.

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 1>Around seventy five percent of the cases are linked to

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:16.760
<v Speaker 1>domestic or international travel outside of Mecklinmore County, Okay. It

0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:19.959
<v Speaker 1>says this bug or virus is it's not a virus.

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 1>It's a bug. This illness is not new, and we

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:29.560
<v Speaker 1>typically see cases every summer where more people travel. While

0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>the current multi state outbreak. With the current multi state outbreak,

0:03:34.320 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 1>it's important to take states or steps to protect your

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:44.760
<v Speaker 1>health by washing your hands and practicing safe food handling.

0:03:46.800 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 1>It is an intestinal illness caused by a parasite called cyclospora.

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>People usually feel sick about one week after exposure to

0:03:59.600 --> 0:04:07.760
<v Speaker 1>the paras site. The main symptoms is I they changed

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:12.800
<v Speaker 1>the adjective in front of the word diarrhea. I know

0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:14.440
<v Speaker 1>nobody wants to hear that, but that's just the way

0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:19.000
<v Speaker 1>it is. It's that's the technical term, right, That's literally

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:21.159
<v Speaker 1>the word used in this email from the Health department.

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 1>But they changed the word in front of the word diarrhea.

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:34.359
<v Speaker 1>The adjective now the adjective that has been used for

0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.599
<v Speaker 1>the last three to four weeks in front of that

0:04:37.680 --> 0:04:42.279
<v Speaker 1>word diarrhea is explosive. How many times have you seen

0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:49.679
<v Speaker 1>or heard the word from like actual doctors explosive? Okay,

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 1>I hear you. Volcano boy, all right, Joe versus the volcano?

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:59.479
<v Speaker 1>Remember that movie, Tom Hanks. I believe Shelley Long. I

0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:08.280
<v Speaker 1>think anyway, they watered it down, the description down. Did

0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:10.279
<v Speaker 1>you see what I did there? Do you see what

0:05:10.279 --> 0:05:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I did there? But to me that seems redundant. Isn't

0:05:13.680 --> 0:05:19.880
<v Speaker 1>that pretty much what that is? Watered down? Isn't that

0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:24.520
<v Speaker 1>what it actually is? So it feels a little redundant.

0:05:24.680 --> 0:05:31.800
<v Speaker 1>I like the term explosive better now last week, so

0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:33.680
<v Speaker 1>we know that lettuce and I feel like Taco Bell

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:35.360
<v Speaker 1>is getting a bad hit on this, Like Taco Bell

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:38.839
<v Speaker 1>is getting hit for the lettuce because the lettuce is

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.600
<v Speaker 1>coming from Mexico and all that. But it's not just that.

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 1>It's strawberries, it's blackberries, it's raspberries, like all this fruit

0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:55.279
<v Speaker 1>it's cilantro. All this stuff coming from Mexico has been

0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:59.240
<v Speaker 1>some to a great degree, some to a little degree,

0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:02.159
<v Speaker 1>but all of them have been contaminated with this little

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:06.679
<v Speaker 1>parasite on the skin it's not internal, it's on the skin.

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:18.480
<v Speaker 1>So last week I made homemade salsa. Symptoms take anywhere

0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:25.080
<v Speaker 1>from two to fourteen days to appear. Tuesday, I made

0:06:25.080 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 1>homemade salsa. I do the show Friday night, and about

0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:39.160
<v Speaker 1>seven thirty eight o'clock, Holy macrimony. I think I said macrimony,

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:45.080
<v Speaker 1>holy macaroni. I should say not matrimony macaroni. It was

0:06:45.120 --> 0:06:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Bret versus the volcano all Friday night, all day Saturday

0:06:53.279 --> 0:07:00.000
<v Speaker 1>was severe severe cramps. Saturday night, got no sleep, severe

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:08.719
<v Speaker 1>your cramps. Brett versus the volcano all day Sunday, same thing,

0:07:10.040 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, I have this damn parasite because of

0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 1>the cilantro that I made homemade salsa with. I made

0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:25.080
<v Speaker 1>it Tuesday Friday night. Bengo bango, your boy was not

0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:28.520
<v Speaker 1>doing well this weekend. It was Brett and Mount Saint

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Helen's Brett and Mount Vesuvius all weekend. By the way,

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.160
<v Speaker 1>those are famous tame as volcanoes, just in case people

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:49.240
<v Speaker 1>aren't aware. So yeah, that was me all weekend. And

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:59.280
<v Speaker 1>then uh, yesterday morning, I felt more human, a little

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 1>bit better enough to go sit down with the mayor

0:08:04.000 --> 0:08:06.360
<v Speaker 1>for forty five minutes. Yesterday and I will tell you

0:08:07.440 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 1>I was nervous going there, and I will also because

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:14.480
<v Speaker 1>of you never know when that feeling's going to hit you.

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:19.040
<v Speaker 1>And I will tell you I was eating amodium like

0:08:19.200 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>green M and m's just popping them left and right,

0:08:25.160 --> 0:08:30.200
<v Speaker 1>and now that has caused a different issue that we're having. Emodium.

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:34.520
<v Speaker 1>You know what emodium does, right, Okay, I'm telling you

0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:38.240
<v Speaker 1>without telling you emodium. You know what emodium does, right, Okay,

0:08:39.840 --> 0:08:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you without telling you. So anyways, that's where

0:08:44.960 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 1>we are. I know this is exactly what you wanted

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:50.240
<v Speaker 1>to hear before you starting your dinner on a Tuesday night.

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I get it. I get it, but I don't know

0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:56.720
<v Speaker 1>if I had it. I don't know. I had all

0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:03.240
<v Speaker 1>the symptoms. But it also lasted about fifty four hours,

0:09:03.720 --> 0:09:06.080
<v Speaker 1>and I don't know how long it's supposed to last. Now,

0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.720
<v Speaker 1>I will tell you the people are generally getting hospitalized,

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:11.240
<v Speaker 1>I do know this. Are the people that are generally

0:09:11.240 --> 0:09:14.480
<v Speaker 1>getting hospitalized or tend to be older people. And they're

0:09:14.520 --> 0:09:19.080
<v Speaker 1>also because they're extremely dehydrated. That's why they're being hospitalized.

0:09:19.600 --> 0:09:22.559
<v Speaker 1>There is medicine. You can take pills for it and

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.079
<v Speaker 1>wipe it on out. Get you. You know, it'll take

0:09:25.080 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 1>care of you, gets rid of the parasite. But most

0:09:27.880 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 1>people are going to the hospital because of dehydration. And

0:09:31.040 --> 0:09:33.280
<v Speaker 1>dehydration has never been an issue with me. Anyone who

0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:36.960
<v Speaker 1>knows me knows that I'm like Cy from Duck Dynasty,

0:09:37.040 --> 0:09:38.959
<v Speaker 1>who's always got the cup of tea with them. I've

0:09:38.960 --> 0:09:41.640
<v Speaker 1>always got something with me, whether it's like right now,

0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I got a Poweraid zero, or it's a Coke zero

0:09:45.880 --> 0:09:48.800
<v Speaker 1>or an ANW root Beer zero because there's no caffeine

0:09:48.840 --> 0:09:50.800
<v Speaker 1>and ANW root beer so I might drink that at night.

0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm a big milk guy, Like my refrigerator is eighty

0:09:56.320 --> 0:10:00.240
<v Speaker 1>five percent liquid things that I drink, So me being

0:10:00.360 --> 0:10:02.679
<v Speaker 1>hydrated has never been an issue. I've always got a

0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:05.120
<v Speaker 1>drink in my hand, always in my car. If I'm

0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.720
<v Speaker 1>going to a press conference, a CMPD press conference, guess what,

0:10:07.760 --> 0:10:10.079
<v Speaker 1>there's a Coke zero in my book bag and I'm

0:10:10.120 --> 0:10:12.480
<v Speaker 1>taking it into the press conference. I just always have

0:10:12.559 --> 0:10:15.480
<v Speaker 1>a drink with me. So anyway, so I don't know

0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:17.679
<v Speaker 1>if I had it this weekend. I don't know if

0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I had the parasite. Don't know. Well, it was awfully

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.640
<v Speaker 1>coincidental that a couple of days after I had the

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:32.120
<v Speaker 1>old uh cilantro for homemade salsa that Brett took a

0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:41.080
<v Speaker 1>trip to Mount Saint Helen's back Brett Jenson. So yesterday

0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:46.200
<v Speaker 1>the hour long show centered around Charlotte's new mayor, Rob

0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:49.160
<v Speaker 1>Harrington and my sit down interview with him in his

0:10:49.320 --> 0:10:52.240
<v Speaker 1>office on the fifteenth floor, in the corner office where

0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:55.880
<v Speaker 1>he's got windows facing uptown really really nice and windows

0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:59.679
<v Speaker 1>facing south towards South End in South Park. As first

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:01.800
<v Speaker 1>time on ever been in the mayor's office for someone

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 1>ever been in there. Really nice, really big, really big.

0:11:06.720 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>But it was it was a good interview. There was

0:11:14.000 --> 0:11:20.119
<v Speaker 1>one question I did not ask him, and I didn't

0:11:20.480 --> 0:11:25.120
<v Speaker 1>the way the interview was going, I didn't feel like

0:11:25.320 --> 0:11:29.320
<v Speaker 1>it was the right time. I want to give it

0:11:29.480 --> 0:11:32.600
<v Speaker 1>some room to breathe and see, you know, maybe in

0:11:32.640 --> 0:11:36.280
<v Speaker 1>two months or three months ask him about it. Maybe

0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:41.599
<v Speaker 1>in October. Because when you were doing questions and interviews,

0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:45.200
<v Speaker 1>you have to get a feel for the room. You know,

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:48.959
<v Speaker 1>you you'd never ever start an interview with your hardest question.

0:11:52.120 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 1>Whether you're talking to a friend or a boss, or

0:11:59.200 --> 0:12:05.920
<v Speaker 1>you're doing an interview, start easy, build up, go extra hard,

0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:10.719
<v Speaker 1>and end easy. Why do you end easy because it's

0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:15.800
<v Speaker 1>the last thing on their minds about how easy it was,

0:12:15.960 --> 0:12:17.680
<v Speaker 1>or towards the end of it, you know, like so

0:12:18.080 --> 0:12:19.720
<v Speaker 1>it's like a little hill. You start off at the

0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:22.120
<v Speaker 1>low level, you build up to the high hard level,

0:12:22.160 --> 0:12:25.040
<v Speaker 1>then you go back down to the easy level. And

0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:28.640
<v Speaker 1>that's generally how I do interviews because you tend to

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:32.560
<v Speaker 1>get more that way. And the way the interview was

0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:37.720
<v Speaker 1>going yesterday, the question that I truly truly wanted to ask,

0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:42.360
<v Speaker 1>but I just it didn't feel right to ask it

0:12:42.400 --> 0:12:48.000
<v Speaker 1>at the time, And the question is this, And I'm

0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:50.199
<v Speaker 1>going to reveal my hand here. Generally I keep this

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.280
<v Speaker 1>to myself, but I'll give you a little behind the

0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:55.440
<v Speaker 1>scenes and all the other media outlets that are listening

0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:59.520
<v Speaker 1>to me so they can steal my question. The question

0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:04.439
<v Speaker 1>is this. One of the main reasons Viylyials is getting

0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:08.880
<v Speaker 1>out outside of her health issues, is because she truly

0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:12.400
<v Speaker 1>hates the city council. She's hated him for the last

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:18.320
<v Speaker 1>three to four years. They are chaotic, and they generally

0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:23.080
<v Speaker 1>don't like each other, and they're disorganized and dysfunctional. How

0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 1>are you going to step in and try to handle

0:13:25.440 --> 0:13:29.720
<v Speaker 1>the city council and deal with all the chaos. That

0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:35.640
<v Speaker 1>was going to be my question. But he hasn't even

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:39.520
<v Speaker 1>had his first city council meeting yet, so he hasn't

0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.160
<v Speaker 1>experienced it yet. And the way, like I said, the

0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:49.000
<v Speaker 1>way the interview was going, it just didn't fit in yesterday.

0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Wasn't the hard probing sixty minutes interviews that you guys

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:56.240
<v Speaker 1>are used to be doing. He's been on the job

0:13:56.280 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>a week and a half. He hasn't had a chance

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:03.200
<v Speaker 1>to do anything yet. I did bring up the fact

0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:05.319
<v Speaker 1>that that I seventy seven tolans are only being held

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:09.040
<v Speaker 1>up by twenty nine houses, many of which aren't even

0:14:09.400 --> 0:14:13.320
<v Speaker 1>owned by the people that live there. Companies own them

0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:16.319
<v Speaker 1>and rent them out. So I did bring that up,

0:14:17.880 --> 0:14:21.760
<v Speaker 1>and he gave a very political lawyer asque answer, Well,

0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:24.840
<v Speaker 1>we want to hear from all people and look, and again,

0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:26.560
<v Speaker 1>I know he's only been on the job. We can

0:14:26.600 --> 0:14:28.200
<v Speaker 1>have so he's not going to say yes, we got

0:14:28.200 --> 0:14:30.040
<v Speaker 1>to expand him or no, we can't expand it. He's

0:14:30.040 --> 0:14:32.280
<v Speaker 1>not going to do that. You'd be an idiot if

0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:36.760
<v Speaker 1>he did. He has to see how things are going

0:14:38.400 --> 0:14:42.640
<v Speaker 1>and then realize, oh, yeah, we are going to owe

0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:46.200
<v Speaker 1>thirty five to forty million as a city, to the state,

0:14:46.280 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>to the NCDOT, we are going to have to pay that,

0:14:53.520 --> 0:15:00.120
<v Speaker 1>and that might change some opinions. Twenty nine houses, many

0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:02.160
<v Speaker 1>of which aren't even owned by the people that live there.

0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:04.840
<v Speaker 1>Or let's write a check back to the nc DOT

0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:07.480
<v Speaker 1>for thirty five million dollars. And oh, by the way,

0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, sacrifice the one hundred and sixty six thousand

0:15:14.160 --> 0:15:18.120
<v Speaker 1>cars that drive on I seventy seven South between Carowin's

0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Boulevard and uptown every day. One hundred and sixty six

0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:26.720
<v Speaker 1>thousand cars. Actually, I think the exact numbers one sixty two,

0:15:26.760 --> 0:15:30.800
<v Speaker 1>to be honest. So where what are you going to do?

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:37.160
<v Speaker 1>You sacrificing the many to save the fifteen twenty nine houses,

0:15:37.200 --> 0:15:40.440
<v Speaker 1>but a lot of them don't own the houses, say

0:15:40.480 --> 0:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>fifteen twenty and have to write a check for thirty

0:15:45.200 --> 0:15:47.320
<v Speaker 1>to thirty five million, is what you're going to do.

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.240
<v Speaker 1>So he would have been stupid to say give an

0:15:51.240 --> 0:15:55.760
<v Speaker 1>answer yesterday. And this man is clearly not stupid. This

0:15:55.880 --> 0:16:10.920
<v Speaker 1>dude is smart, very smart, very eloquent. She got it

0:16:10.960 --> 0:16:14.920
<v Speaker 1>back to breaking with Brett Jensen here on this Tuesday night, Tuesday,

0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:18.120
<v Speaker 1>I remember it's Tuesday night, seven oh four, five, seven

0:16:18.200 --> 0:16:22.120
<v Speaker 1>oh eleven, ten. All right, let me talk to you

0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:25.680
<v Speaker 1>about the North Counta Senate race Watley and Cooper. I

0:16:25.680 --> 0:16:30.760
<v Speaker 1>talked a little bit about this. When was it, let's

0:16:30.760 --> 0:16:32.800
<v Speaker 1>say it Tuesday, so Friday, I guess I talked about

0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 1>it Friday. And that is the for the first time,

0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.200
<v Speaker 1>Michael Wattley in one of the latest polls is only

0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:46.680
<v Speaker 1>down four points. The Public Policy Polling and they've been

0:16:46.720 --> 0:16:49.760
<v Speaker 1>doing polling in North Carolina for a long time, and

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:53.320
<v Speaker 1>they don't even try to hide the fact that they

0:16:53.360 --> 0:17:00.000
<v Speaker 1>are a Democrat centrist polling company. Like they are leftists.

0:17:01.280 --> 0:17:04.679
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not saying that in a bad way. I

0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:07.399
<v Speaker 1>don't mean like they're socialists. I mean they're just Democrat

0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:10.920
<v Speaker 1>and they do polling just like you know, there are

0:17:11.000 --> 0:17:13.760
<v Speaker 1>a couple of companies, like maybe three companies out there

0:17:14.200 --> 0:17:18.080
<v Speaker 1>that tend to be right leaning as opposed to all

0:17:18.119 --> 0:17:25.080
<v Speaker 1>the horribly crooked left leaning polls New York Times, Washington Post, CNN,

0:17:26.640 --> 0:17:32.239
<v Speaker 1>Quinnipiac Mayrist like just horrible, just basically lie to you,

0:17:33.000 --> 0:17:34.520
<v Speaker 1>like and I'm not even joking. You don't believe me.

0:17:34.720 --> 0:17:37.440
<v Speaker 1>Go look at the last four go to real clear politics,

0:17:37.440 --> 0:17:39.680
<v Speaker 1>and you can look at the polling from the last

0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:43.280
<v Speaker 1>four or last three or four presidential elections, and you'll

0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:45.520
<v Speaker 1>see New York Times as Kamala Harris winning by ten

0:17:46.359 --> 0:17:51.480
<v Speaker 1>by ten points, she lost North Calinda by three. They

0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:53.960
<v Speaker 1>had North, They had Kamala Harris winning North Calendar by

0:17:54.000 --> 0:17:57.479
<v Speaker 1>like four points. They have Biden winning North Calendar by

0:17:57.520 --> 0:18:04.080
<v Speaker 1>six points or five points he lost. So the fact

0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 1>that this is a left leaning, admittedly so polling group

0:18:09.680 --> 0:18:13.800
<v Speaker 1>only has Waltley down four points. I think there are

0:18:14.160 --> 0:18:19.879
<v Speaker 1>multiple reasons for that. One. Waltley's message about all the

0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:22.439
<v Speaker 1>things that Cooper did with the criminals, and the closing

0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:25.960
<v Speaker 1>of the schools and the crapping the bed with two

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:31.440
<v Speaker 1>different hurricanes, Hurricane Lean and Hurricane Matthew, marching with protesters

0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:33.400
<v Speaker 1>when he told everyone to wear a mask, but yet

0:18:33.440 --> 0:18:36.320
<v Speaker 1>wasn't wearing a mask himself. Like there's a lot, there's

0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:39.760
<v Speaker 1>a lot there to have a field day with, like

0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:43.040
<v Speaker 1>a lot. And this new commercial that Cooper's out and

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.400
<v Speaker 1>I've already talked about about, he said how he believes

0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:48.760
<v Speaker 1>criminals should stay in jail, just not the forty two

0:18:48.840 --> 0:18:53.000
<v Speaker 1>hundred that he let out of jail, including murders, rapists,

0:18:53.040 --> 0:18:56.639
<v Speaker 1>you know, pedophiles, things like that, people should stay in

0:18:56.720 --> 0:18:59.640
<v Speaker 1>jail unless you're on my forty two hundred and fifty

0:18:59.640 --> 0:19:05.160
<v Speaker 1>person life. But it's forty eight to forty four according

0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:06.600
<v Speaker 1>to this new poll. And like I said, they've been

0:19:06.640 --> 0:19:10.919
<v Speaker 1>doing this for a long time. And here's what I

0:19:10.920 --> 0:19:15.560
<v Speaker 1>think is happening. Yes, Wiley's making headway and getting the

0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:21.760
<v Speaker 1>message out, but there's also some other things and one

0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:24.600
<v Speaker 1>of them is a national thing that's going on right now.

0:19:26.359 --> 0:19:31.440
<v Speaker 1>How many of you have either seen or heard about

0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:37.720
<v Speaker 1>the most recent Bill Maher interview on ABC News. Bill

0:19:37.760 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Maher lifetime Democrat who hates the woke, hates the woke,

0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:52.440
<v Speaker 1>rips it all the time, but it's still a hardcore Democrat,

0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.280
<v Speaker 1>and is you know, not a fan of Trump and

0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:57.080
<v Speaker 1>Republicans and all that, but he hates the woke, I

0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:59.639
<v Speaker 1>think more than he hates the Republicans or Donald Trump.

0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:06.439
<v Speaker 1>He said on ABC News yesterday in his interview that

0:20:08.080 --> 0:20:12.400
<v Speaker 1>as of right now, between a socialist candidate like Bernie Sanders,

0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:17.280
<v Speaker 1>AOC people that are supporting the socialist candidates, or Republican JD. Vance,

0:20:17.840 --> 0:20:21.639
<v Speaker 1>he would vote for JD. Vans all day and it

0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:23.240
<v Speaker 1>would probably be the first time in his life that

0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:25.960
<v Speaker 1>he's ever voted for a Republican because his direct quote was,

0:20:26.320 --> 0:20:35.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm not living in a communist country. And you are

0:20:35.400 --> 0:20:39.320
<v Speaker 1>seeing all these Democrats that are aligning themselves with the

0:20:39.320 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 1>democrats socialists because the people that are already in office,

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:46.239
<v Speaker 1>they're losing, a lot of the incumbents are losing. So

0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:49.040
<v Speaker 1>now they have to play kate to the democrats socialists,

0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:53.480
<v Speaker 1>all these Democrats who want everything for free. Do you

0:20:53.480 --> 0:20:56.119
<v Speaker 1>remember when everyone thought they were going to get a

0:20:56.160 --> 0:21:00.800
<v Speaker 1>free Obama phone? Remember that? Remember that everyone thought they

0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:02.639
<v Speaker 1>were gonna get a free Oh they literally called it

0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:06.240
<v Speaker 1>an Obama phone, you know, you know, just like Obamacare. Right,

0:21:07.680 --> 0:21:12.399
<v Speaker 1>everyone thought they were getting a free phone. You know,

0:21:12.520 --> 0:21:14.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm right, Like a lot of drivers are in here

0:21:14.560 --> 0:21:17.879
<v Speaker 1>to lab like they know, I'm right, right, all the

0:21:17.960 --> 0:21:19.680
<v Speaker 1>drivers you are a kid like so you probably don't

0:21:19.680 --> 0:21:25.080
<v Speaker 1>remember that you were like you were like six. But

0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:30.280
<v Speaker 1>so now all these socialists want everything rent control and

0:21:30.359 --> 0:21:33.440
<v Speaker 1>free groceries and this and that. Yeah, New York City

0:21:33.520 --> 0:21:38.639
<v Speaker 1>and Seattle right now they're upside down financially. They're underwater

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:42.679
<v Speaker 1>financially because they're trying to do all these programs and

0:21:42.800 --> 0:21:45.600
<v Speaker 1>all these billionaires, and all these companies are leaving town

0:21:45.720 --> 0:21:47.800
<v Speaker 1>going You're not going to tax those twice as much

0:21:47.800 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>as everywhere else. Screw you. Same reason why California is

0:21:51.760 --> 0:21:56.480
<v Speaker 1>losing all their companies and people. So people are being

0:21:56.600 --> 0:22:01.720
<v Speaker 1>tied because they won't disavow the Democrats socialists. So now

0:22:01.720 --> 0:22:05.800
<v Speaker 1>these Democrats are being tied to the Democrats, socialists, and

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:14.800
<v Speaker 1>the independence the unaffiliated, which make up roughly fifty of

0:22:14.840 --> 0:22:19.800
<v Speaker 1>the electorate in North Carolina, maybe a little bit less

0:22:20.440 --> 0:22:25.959
<v Speaker 1>forty maybe, yeah, probably forty percent somewhere ond there. How

0:22:25.960 --> 0:22:28.080
<v Speaker 1>do you think independents are going to vote if they

0:22:28.080 --> 0:22:30.800
<v Speaker 1>truly are an independent, not people that were Democrats and

0:22:30.840 --> 0:22:34.399
<v Speaker 1>they just put unaffiliated on their voter form just so

0:22:34.840 --> 0:22:37.840
<v Speaker 1>people at work don't get upset or whatever, or they're

0:22:37.840 --> 0:22:40.159
<v Speaker 1>trying to hide they're true, what their true cause in

0:22:40.240 --> 0:22:46.200
<v Speaker 1>life is is to be hardcore Democrat. Not those people,

0:22:46.440 --> 0:22:49.360
<v Speaker 1>but people that are truly unaffiliated. How do you think

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:56.000
<v Speaker 1>they're going to vote? Socialist, communist or Mark Arrubio? I

0:22:56.000 --> 0:22:59.240
<v Speaker 1>think that's an easy one. I think that's easy. I

0:22:59.280 --> 0:23:03.280
<v Speaker 1>mean that backcrap crazy situation going on up in Minnesota

0:23:03.359 --> 0:23:06.919
<v Speaker 1>or Maine. Do yourself a favor, go on YouTube and

0:23:06.960 --> 0:23:10.480
<v Speaker 1>look at all the highlights from the main Senic debate

0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:18.040
<v Speaker 1>over the weekend. Oh my god, there's a dude wearing

0:23:18.040 --> 0:23:22.920
<v Speaker 1>a dress with like purple hair, and he's every bit

0:23:22.960 --> 0:23:28.119
<v Speaker 1>at three fitty. He weighs as much as me and

0:23:28.160 --> 0:23:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Travers put together. So that's another reason why I think

0:23:35.680 --> 0:23:38.440
<v Speaker 1>while he's gaming is because the Democrats are sinking in

0:23:38.520 --> 0:23:41.680
<v Speaker 1>the national polls all across the national poles. They are

0:23:41.760 --> 0:24:00.440
<v Speaker 1>sinking rapidly because of their affiliation with the Socialists. Welcome

0:24:00.440 --> 0:24:02.360
<v Speaker 1>back to breaking with Brett Jenson for a few more mens,

0:24:02.440 --> 0:24:04.639
<v Speaker 1>until we send you off to TJ and the Bear. Richie,

0:24:05.720 --> 0:24:07.480
<v Speaker 1>I swear to you, one of these days, I'm just

0:24:07.480 --> 0:24:09.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna play the theme song to TJ and the Bear

0:24:10.480 --> 0:24:12.080
<v Speaker 1>lo As a matter of fact, Loney, won't you've triumph

0:24:12.119 --> 0:24:16.480
<v Speaker 1>on that right now on good old YouTube? Because I

0:24:16.600 --> 0:24:19.960
<v Speaker 1>was a show I never watched. I never watched that

0:24:20.119 --> 0:24:24.080
<v Speaker 1>show about a guy driving across the country and an

0:24:24.080 --> 0:24:27.280
<v Speaker 1>eighteen wheeler with a little champanzee called the Bear hanging

0:24:27.320 --> 0:24:29.800
<v Speaker 1>out next to him, and he would always go into

0:24:29.920 --> 0:24:31.800
<v Speaker 1>And the only reason I know this is because we

0:24:31.840 --> 0:24:34.840
<v Speaker 1>actually looked it up on Wikipedia one day. He would

0:24:34.880 --> 0:24:37.639
<v Speaker 1>go into all these towns, and trouble always seemed to

0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:40.879
<v Speaker 1>find him, and he was always trying to solve the

0:24:40.920 --> 0:24:44.560
