1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,560 Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about Donald Trump's polling and the recent polling. 2 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: This is coming from the Washington Post and ABC News, 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: so take that for what it's worth, and it says 4 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: that more Americans are blaming him and the GOP for 5 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:13,680 Speaker 1: the shutdown. 6 00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 2: It's my dad and I we're talking about this yesterday 7 00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:25,760 Speaker 2: that it is interesting that the Republicans are getting blamed 8 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 2: for simply voting to open the government, Like, how could 9 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: you get blamed for vote? It shows how unengaged the 10 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:34,960 Speaker 2: public largely is and they can be spun into about 11 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 2: anything because if you all the Republicans did was vote 12 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:42,720 Speaker 2: to keep the government open in the House, and the 13 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 2: Republican senators have clearly said, which I think is wrong. 14 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 2: I think they should not be voting to keep the 15 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 2: government open given the current budget. But they've said, we're 16 00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: more than willing to continue to let the status quot 17 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,880 Speaker 2: destroy this country. The Republican Party's official position is we're 18 00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,520 Speaker 2: more than willing to let the status quo continue to 19 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 2: destroy this country. The Democrats are the ones saying no, 20 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,360 Speaker 2: and yet Republicans are the ones getting the bulleted for it. 21 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 1: Well, I mean that's because you have people saying, you know, 22 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: You've got Democrats out there that are saying, oh, you 23 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 1: know what, they won't pass. 24 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:20,000 Speaker 2: This, But doesn't it show you that there is just 25 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 2: a huge portion of this country that has no critical 26 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 2: thinking skills whatsoever. Oh, someone told me it, so it 27 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 2: must be true. And I'm not going to do the 28 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 2: least bit of research, which, again I totally disagree with 29 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 2: the Republicans passing you continuing to fund fully fund Joe 30 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,600 Speaker 2: Biden's government. I would vote no like Rand Paul has 31 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 2: or Thomas Massey has, But the reality is they have 32 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: voted to keep Joe Biden's government open and moving at 33 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: a freight train type of speed. But like, there's a 34 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 2: huge portion of our populace that can't even think it 35 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: through or won't take the time to think it through 36 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 2: or And so how could the Democrats not be getting 37 00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 2: the blame when they're the ones who are voting no 38 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: over and over and over again. 39 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: I look to a Facebook friend of mine, very outspoken, 40 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,959 Speaker 1: very Democrat. Oh, and she posts things all the time, 41 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: and I'm just like scrolling through her feed right now, 42 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,679 Speaker 1: and this is one of the latest. This is from 43 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: a day ago. No food for you until the Democrats 44 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 1: let us take away your health care house Republicans. So 45 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 1: when you see messages like. 46 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: That, well, and how would you even talk that? Have 47 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 2: you ever tried to engage that person? 48 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: Not in quite a while. 49 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 2: I would like I would love. 50 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: You. 51 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: Know, I've often told you because sometimes you will see 52 00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 2: things and you will try to like go why why 53 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 2: why why? And I will say, Casey, would you go 54 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: to the county home and fight with the people there? 55 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: And it's the equivalent sometimes on social media going to 56 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 2: the county home and trying to fight with people. But 57 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:59,400 Speaker 2: I would love to sit down to that person and 58 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 2: to ask her, like, where where did you learn this? 59 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,959 Speaker 2: Like what is your actual other than screaming on Twitter 60 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 2: or Facebook or whatever. Walk me through why you think 61 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 2: this is going on and what's happening, and then the 62 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 2: follow up question would be okay. So unless you give 63 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: and the follow up question to these people who believe 64 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: the Republicans are to blame for shutting down the government, 65 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: the Republicans are to blame for bad government, They're certainly 66 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 2: not to blame for shutting down the government. They're blamed 67 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 2: to blame for bad, dishonest, deceptive, rotten government, but they're 68 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 2: certainly for keeping that government open. You would love to 69 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 2: ask the people who think the Republicans are to blame. Okay, 70 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: so in your world, unless the Republicans give Democrats who 71 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 2: have not won the election everything they want, then the 72 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,520 Speaker 2: Republicans are to blame. Well the answer is no, then 73 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 2: then what are they allowed to not give the Democrats? 74 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 2: Like to see? None just none of it makes any 75 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 2: None of it makes any sense, and it is maddening. 76 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 1: Well, this is somebody who's picked their side, right, and 77 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 1: they're just gonna say that message. 78 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 2: And that's what it is, its sides and you're seeing this. 79 00:03:59,400 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: You see it. 80 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 2: Don't are our quote unquote our I don't have a 81 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: team anymore. I've been booted off the team, Casey. But 82 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 2: you see this in the conservative corners where all these people, 83 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 2: this little group of people who I used to think 84 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: we're niven being manipulated. Now I don't think they're naiven 85 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: or being manipulated. I think they go willingly and know 86 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: exactly what they're doing. Who were many of them were 87 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 2: very upset when Braun screwed everybody on property taxes, didn't 88 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: follow it through, and then he invites them to the 89 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 2: governor's mansion and I guess he meets with them once 90 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 2: a month. 91 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: M hm, are they making progress? 92 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 2: Well, have you heard anything from Braun? Org day is 93 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: the eighteenth casey, that's when any big thing would be 94 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: laid out because and it's a short session by the way, 95 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: so they only have two months two and a half 96 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: months to get it done. Anything that would be big 97 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 2: would have to be laid out. Then for the most part, 98 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,239 Speaker 2: have you anything big from Braun? I don't know. I believe. 99 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: Weren't we told there was an ace up asleep? 100 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 2: Well have you seen the ace? I have not? Township government? 101 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: Are they making progress? Is? 102 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: What is the ace? But my point is these people 103 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 2: go and now they just give these glowing reviews of 104 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: brawn when they go, and then you realize, no, you're 105 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 2: just a team person and you're doing the same thing 106 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: that that woman is doing. But on the other side, 107 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: in which no matter how many times you get screwed 108 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 2: over our mont however illogical it is, no matter what 109 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 2: they do to you, you just want to be a 110 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 2: part of the It's like part of the action, right, 111 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: I'm invited, I know to the thing.

They're so way to their corners they can't 123 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 2: come out of the corners, and we can't have an 124 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 2: honest conversation in the quote unquote middle about hey, how 125 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: big does the government need to be? What is actually 126 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 2: working for us, what is actually effective, who's being a 127 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 2: good steward of our dollars, who is being effective with 128 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 2: our money? We can't even have that conversation because everybody's 129 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 2: just the other side's the day level. The other side's 130 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 2: the worst. The country's going to end if so and 131 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: so gets in charge, and we just have just irrational 132 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: screaming sessions on social media when it doesn't need to 133 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 2: be that way. 134 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: According to this poll, seventy five percent of Americans say 135 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 1: they're concerned about the shutdown. Twenty five percent say they 136 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: are not
