1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: President Trump is hilarious to me. 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 2: This happened on Friday, and by the time we got 3 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,880 Speaker 2: to Monday, I thought I wouldn't talk about this. To 4 00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 2: be honest with you, I was like, you know, I 5 00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 2: watched the whole Mumdani press conference. At one point, Trump 6 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,640 Speaker 2: even said to the press, it's amazing you guys care 7 00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 2: about this press conference this much or this individual being 8 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 2: in the White House with me as much as you do, 9 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 2: because there's way more important people that come through here. 10 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:28,280 Speaker 2: And he's right about that, by the way, foreign leaders 11 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 2: that are more significant than Mumdani. 12 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: But media was obsessed with it. There was a moment, however, 13 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: and when I watched it live, I just thought it 14 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 1: was funny. 15 00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: I thought, at the worst, the way that Trump looked 16 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: in that moment was like a guy that doesn't take 17 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 2: some things as seriously as maybe he should, but in. 18 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: A good way. 19 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,960 Speaker 2: Like you know, it's not a big deal. I don't 20 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 2: care if you've called me a fascist before. That's what happened. 21 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 2: But the way media has spun this, which is not surprising. 22 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: Media spins everything that Trump does and says. And to 23 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 2: be honest with you, even bed on that I actually 24 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 2: was having a conversation with somebody at a coffee shop 25 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: in Houston, Texas, and to the table to our left 26 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 2: where these two maybe high school, maybe college age young women, 27 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 2: I'm not really sure, late high school, early college, something 28 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: like that, and they were also talking about politics, and 29 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,399 Speaker 2: we were doing it quieter than them, and they brought 30 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: up Mamdanie, and they brought up this whole moment, and 31 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 2: they were both laughing about how Trump is admitting he's 32 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 2: a fascist, which isn't at all what happened. But I 33 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 2: was kind of mystified at the way that not only 34 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: media has spuned this, but the way that a lot 35 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 2: of Trump haters or whoever they are out there, voters, 36 00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 2: young people, what have you see this? Utterly differently than 37 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: I do, and utterly differently than I think a lot 38 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: of people do. 39 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: But here I'll play the audio. 40 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: First, asked about your comment called the President and the fascist, 41 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: and your answer was, but President Trump and I can 42 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 2: clear about our positions in our views. 43 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: Are you affirm that you think President Trump is a fascist? 44 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: I've spoken about Okay, you can just say okay, it's 45 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: easier than explaining it. 46 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 2: Okay, I want to stop it right there, that's the 47 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,800 Speaker 2: entirety of the interaction, and I think it's hilarious. President 48 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 2: Trump even taps him on the arm and goes, it's okay, 49 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 2: not a big deal. We don't even want to be 50 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: bogged down by this question right now, and you struggling 51 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: to explain it in front of me, like those are 52 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: all things he could have said. Instead, he goes, let's 53 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 2: just skip it. Just say yes, And then Mamdannie after 54 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 2: he left this meeting, did in fact tell people he 55 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 2: still sees Trump as a fascist, which is insane and 56 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,679 Speaker 2: I think probably disappointed Trump, although again I don't know 57 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 2: that he cares. And you know what I really thought 58 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 2: of when I saw that moment. And I know this 59 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 2: is a weird, like disconnected thing maybe to you to share, 60 00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: but I have a friend of mine who's a radio broadcaster, 61 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 2: radio Hall of Fame broadcaster actually, who had at the 62 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: point of like the height of his career, which I 63 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 2: think was in the eighties and nineties, he was interviewing 64 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,040 Speaker 2: Jerry Seinfeldt, who was also rather famous at that time. 65 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:01,320 Speaker 1: They did this on the radio, and. 66 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,480 Speaker 2: They thought Jerry was a jerk somehow, I don't remember 67 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: what it was, so they kind of crapped on him 68 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 2: for an entire radio interview. They made fun of this 69 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 2: famous person in their studio. They thought, we're a big 70 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 2: deal in the radio. He doesn't respect us. And to 71 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 2: the credit of the guy, I know, he joked about 72 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 2: how Jerry just didn't care, kind of wet with it, 73 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 2: kind of joked about it, and then left the interview 74 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 2: without seeming to be upset at all. And the radio 75 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: host was so ashamed of himself and his co host 76 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: that he went to the guy's show. He went to 77 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: the comedy show that Jerry was there to promote and 78 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 2: apologized to him backstage, and Jerry Seinfeld looked at him 79 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: and goes, I don't care. 80 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 1: You're not going to impact me. 81 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 2: My fame isn't going to take a hit because I 82 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 2: did this interview with you guys on that radio station. Essentially, 83 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: Jerry Seinfeld looked at my friend, who's a Hall of 84 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: Fame broadcaster now with a very big radio show at 85 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: the time, and he told him, you can't touch me. 86 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 2: That's exactly what Trump was doing in that moment. To Mamdannie, 87 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 2: He's like, you can't hurt me. Say whatever you want, 88 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 2: behave however you want it. Doesn't matter.

The Epstein files whatever to tell 144 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: you way before they have proof that he's definitively guilty 145 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 2: of something and he needs to be impeached and imprisoned. 146 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: That's all they do. 147 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 2: And then they actually literally go after him in courtrooms 148 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 2: when that stuff doesn't work.

Miss 176 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: Mexico one Miss Universe, which my wife is very happy about. 177 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: She's from Mexico, born and raised there, a US citizen. 178 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 2: Now they're saying the fix was in. They're saying that 179 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: there's some sort of oil tycoon connected to Miss Mexico 180 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 2: out of Mexico that essentially bought the Miss Universe contest. 181 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 2: This would never be on my radar of a topic 182 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: to talk about, except I found this hilarious as an 183 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 2: idea today. And this isn't the first time that that 184 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 2: competition or any you know, beauty pageant has been accused 185 00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 2: of a fix. One of the judges even walked away 186 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 2: from this thing, apparently before the actual event itself, and 187 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: said to themselves when they were walking away that, you know, 188 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: the biggest reason that I'm done with this is because 189 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: I think that it's already fixed. I think that my 190 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 2: judging doesn't matter, and that to me is hilarious. I 191 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 2: don't know why, but I just think it is. By 192 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 2: the way, miss Mexico very attractive. If I were to 193 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: say that she seemed to deserve a beauty pageant win, 194 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 2: or if I were to be asked that question, my 195 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 2: answer would be, yeah, he's rather attractive. I think that 196 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 2: she probably deserves the win here. But that's not what 197 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: other people are talking about. They're talking about whether or 198 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 2: not she stole the beauty pageant win for Miss Thailand, 199 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 2: who apparently was the runner up. And I just find 200 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: everything about option amusing when it's not in politics, because 201 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 2: of how prevalent it is all these other places, and 202 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 2: how I guess the stakes are lower. I'm not really sure, 203 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 2: but if Mexico Win is actually fraud, I wonder if 204 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 2: anybody will attack it and go after it. If President 205 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 2: Trump was somehow involved in it, it would be something 206 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 2: way more serious than it is right now.
