1
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,680
Speaker 1: Hey, guess what. This is a new one, brand new

2
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: Mark Belling podcast. Now if you're listening to it April

3
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: twenty seventh, I guess it's not brand new, but it's

4
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 1: brand new because I'm doing it right now. For frame

5
00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:34,880
Speaker 1: of reference, this is the afternoon of President Trump's State

6
00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:38,360
Speaker 1: of the Union address, So we're doing the program on

7
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,600
Speaker 1: what day is it today? Tuesday the twenty fourth, So

8
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:45,240
Speaker 1: that's the time frame for this podcast. My podcast season

9
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:49,199
Speaker 1: runs May one to December thirty First, First things first,

10
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people who don't know that.

11
00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: I kind of thought that was covered. First of all,

12
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 1: when I was doing my old radio show. The last

13
00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: two years of my radio show, I was working May

14
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: first through December thirty first, and this podcast in the

15
00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,840
Speaker 1: first year we started at May first and ran into

16
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 1: December thirty first, and I don't know, a couple of

17
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 1: times we mentioned in the podcast that and the last

18
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 1: one that we did on the year, we talked at

19
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,959
Speaker 1: great length that this would be the last one. I'm

20
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 1: just telling you, I've been inundated with people who think

21
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: that I've retired, or where's the podcast? Are you going

22
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 1: to do another podcast? Have you been canceled no, this

23
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 1: is the plan. Break. My plan for from now until

24
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: the end of time is to have a podcast that's

25
00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:34,800
Speaker 1: going to run from May first to December thirty first. However,

26
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,680
Speaker 1: we have a need for a special podcast. It's been

27
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: about what seven weeks. There's no way I can go

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,560
Speaker 1: seven weeks without commenting and all of the things that

29
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:48,000
Speaker 1: are going on in the world. So what we're going

30
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: to do today is have a special podcast that's going

31
00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 1: to kind of be a bullet point podcast of covering

32
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: some recent events, offering perspective on a couple of things,

33
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 1: and moving on. I also have a couple of announcements

34
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: for those of you, and all of the podcasts are

35
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: still out there in order, and you can go back

36
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: and listen to the December thirty first podcast, because that's

37
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: when we did our farewell to my producer, Paul, who

38
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,360
Speaker 1: had been with me forever and ever and ever and

39
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: ever and ever, and we were done. So who do

40
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:21,560
Speaker 1: you think is producing this special podcast? There? He is?

41
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: He just there, he right is in there. Actually, we

42
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,520
Speaker 1: do have a new producer in the second season of

43
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: the podcast, which officially begins May first. This transition little

44
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: podcast that we're doing here, I guess is in its

45
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: own category, although it will be This is podcast number

46
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: one oh six. Jason Gotch, who is the midday host

47
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 1: on WISN Radio, where I work for thirty five years,

48
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: He is going to be the new producer of the

49
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: podcast and he's going to be taking over and in

50
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: the meantime, Paul is teaching him how to do it.

51
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,080
Speaker 1: He's going to share with him everything that he knows,

52
00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 1: which should take what two minutes and fifteen seconds five

53
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 1: minutes at the most. So Jason's going to learn how

54
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,600
Speaker 1: to do the podcast and he'll take over on May first,

55
00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:10,600
Speaker 1: and Paul is providing his assistance in the transitions. That's

56
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 1: the first big change after like, yeah, it was about

57
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 1: thirty five years, my first year of radio. We went

58
00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: through three or four producers, then Paul came in. I've

59
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: only had him plus obviously fill ins when Paul was

60
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: on vacation. So we'll have a new producer when the

61
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: podcast returns for its full season. But both Paul and

62
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: Jason are in here today. I want to address given

63
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,160
Speaker 1: that we're on the afternoon of the State of the

64
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: Union address, that's when I'm recording this. So I'm just

65
00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 1: convinced there's going to be all sorts of fireworks and

66
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,920
Speaker 1: crap at the State of the Union. So if you're

67
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,720
Speaker 1: listening to it after it, I can't comment on all

68
00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: that it was, other than to just anticipate that that's

69
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 1: what's going on to happen, which is kind of the

70
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 1: point of today's podcast. I believe just about every issue

71
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 1: that's creating divisiveness in America right now it's all because

72
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: of feigned outrage from the left. I don't even think

73
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: they're actually outraged. They're outraged that Trump is the president.

74
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:28,679
Speaker 1: They're outraged that they're not in power, but I don't

75
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 1: think they are sincerely bothered by anything he's doing, none

76
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:41,040
Speaker 1: of it, which is why the reaction is such an overreaction.

77
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: If you're gonna fake it, you may as well really

78
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,440
Speaker 1: fake it. What's the point of faking it and just

79
00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: putting on a few press releases in abject No, Let's

80
00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,760
Speaker 1: go to the streets. Let's riot, let's scream, Let's start

81
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: throwing the F bombs all over the place. Let's say

82
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,799
Speaker 1: that everything is the greatest threat to democracy of all time.

83
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: Let's just say everything is terrible. Let's stage ludicrous events.

84
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 1: Let's act like children. There's no differentiation in the response

85
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: to everything. Everything is the same, over the top, terrible thing.

86
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,480
Speaker 1: So if some Trump actually does something that truly is

87
00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 1: outrageous or actually bothers them, it'll be the same reaction

88
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,360
Speaker 1: because everything that they're responding to, they're giving one hundred percent.

89
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:35,919
Speaker 1: And I'm just telling you it's all fake, and I

90
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 1: know why it's fake, and I know why you're giving

91
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 1: why they're giving this type of reaction to Trump. Do

92
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 1: either of you know why? Do you want to volunteer

93
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: an answer? Jason's never given an answer yet, Paul, do

94
00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:51,880
Speaker 1: you want to volunteer an answer as to you're training? Jason?

95
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 1: In your word, you never paid attention when I actually

96
00:05:54,400 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 1: did it, when I actually did the program. Jason, do

97
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,719
Speaker 1: you have an opinion as to why there all of

98
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: these reactions are so hysterical and over the top. Jason says,

99
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:17,039
Speaker 1: they're saying that, yeah, but that's not it. They don't

100
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:23,679
Speaker 1: have anything to rally around, and they don't have anyone

101
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:28,279
Speaker 1: to rally around. Look where we are right now, we're

102
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: early in twenty six. The campaign for president on the

103
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 1: Democratic side is going to be kicking in by late

104
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,600
Speaker 1: this year early next We now know that the year

105
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: before the primaries is actually when the candidates are chosen.

106
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: We saw that on the Republican side last time around.

107
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,840
Speaker 1: Trump didn't win the Republican nomination in twenty four. He

108
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: went it in twenty three. He got into the race,

109
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 1: The Santus was in the race, Nikki Healy was in

110
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: the race. But Trump took a commanding lead in the

111
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 1: polls and then want to crush them all in the primaries.

112
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: It was over before anybody actually voted. The polling determines

113
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:12,680
Speaker 1: whether or not you're gonna get any campaign fundraising. The

114
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: candidates that don't do well in the polls fall up.

115
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: Remember when Kamala Harris ran for president, you're the Joe

116
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 1: Biden one. She dropped out in November before there were

117
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,760
Speaker 1: any primaries. That's the primary season. And so my point

118
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: is is that right now we're in the stage in

119
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 1: which most of the attention of the Democrats should be

120
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: around who their candidate is going to be. And various

121
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: Democrats get all goosebumpy over this one and that one,

122
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: and they starts signing up and saying that they don't

123
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:44,400
Speaker 1: have anyone that they're excited about nothing. They have no

124
00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: one to rally around. So therefore the only point of

125
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 1: emotion is to rage against Trump. They can't rage for anything.

126
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,720
Speaker 1: They can't get themselves wrapped up in any cause, any issue,

127
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 1: so all they can do is rage against Trump. Look

128
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 1: at what you have right now, and I'm just going

129
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 1: to deal with events in the last few days. Look

130
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 1: at the prime leaders in the Democratic Party. Biden, presumpted

131
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,880
Speaker 1: would presumably still be the leader of the party who

132
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 1: was their last president. Totally see now useless Kamala Harris.

133
00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 1: You can't rally around her. Look what she did. She

134
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 1: was incoherent, babbling, possibly drunk, lightweight in over her head.

135
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:40,280
Speaker 1: There is no desire on the part of any Democrats

136
00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 1: anywhere to be led to anything by Kamala Harris. AOC

137
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 1: massive following great fundraiser. She decided this thing where she

138
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,240
Speaker 1: went to that security conference of Greece. This was a

139
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: planned big deal. This was her coming out party as

140
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,679
Speaker 1: a serious leader of the left, a serious leader of

141
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,520
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. She goes to a big shot, high

142
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 1: end thing in which we're dealing with foreign policy, an

143
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,800
Speaker 1: issue that nobody ever associates with her. So she was prepped,

144
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 1: primed to go there, and the bar was certainly low.

145
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: All she had to do is put together a few

146
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 1: sentences that were understandable, and the media was going to say, Wow, AOC, shine,

147
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: this is AOC emerging. She showed that she's leaderlike and

148
00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:34,760
Speaker 1: every line and every issue that was out there was

149
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:39,200
Speaker 1: no doubt prep for her. She gets thrown a question

150
00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:47,120
Speaker 1: on China and Taiwan. I'm telling you, I thought we

151
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: saw the bottom with Kamala Harris in babbling and just

152
00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,200
Speaker 1: throwing words together. Kamala sounded eloquent. Kamala was a Shakespearean

153
00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 1: character compared to AOC's answer, I didn't bring any and

154
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 1: he oughtit to play because I think everybody's heard that.

155
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm barely paying attention to anything. I'm down

156
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: there in Florida and non Florida right now, back to

157
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: Milwaukee for a few days to do things like well this,

158
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: but at the level of attention that I'm paying to

159
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: I mean, this thing just resonated everywhere. It was so

160
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: terrible that even Democrats are ripping it, wondering, well, why

161
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: would she go to this. Well, it's obvious why she

162
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,680
Speaker 1: went to it. If she's ever going to be taken

163
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 1: seriously as a leader. She has to start doing things

164
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: like this. The question has been a question that's been

165
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: on the front burner in America for twenty to twenty

166
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 1: five years. What are we going to do if China

167
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:48,880
Speaker 1: invades Paiwan? What should we do? And every politician that's

168
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 1: out there, and by the way, it's obviously a difficult question,

169
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:58,080
Speaker 1: but every politician that's out there has an answer. She didn't.

170
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 1: Not only didn't have an answer, she could common will

171
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: at least throw in the random scattered word that relates

172
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,800
Speaker 1: to the question. It was never linked. The first word

173
00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 1: didn't have anything to do with the next. All I

174
00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 1: got from AOC was um uh, well, um um um.

175
00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 1: So you're a lefty? Really? Are you now enthused that

176
00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 1: AOC is going to be your champion? They love to

177
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 1: claim that Trump is dumb. Trump has a command of

178
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: just about every issue that's out there. Jd Vance probably

179
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: even more so in terms of his eloquence on them.

180
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 1: AOC could not talk her way out of a paper

181
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:49,200
Speaker 1: bag on that issue. So where's their enthusiasm? So now

182
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,800
Speaker 1: let's go to the flip side of this. The ANTIAOC

183
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:59,319
Speaker 1: of the Democratic Party, the smoothest politician they have. You

184
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:04,280
Speaker 1: can't come anymore blowed, ride and well spoken than Gavin Newssom.

185
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 1: You're never gonna hear Gavin Newsom with an um or

186
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:14,080
Speaker 1: an uh or a like. He in fact loves the

187
00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 1: give and take. He's going out there doing a podcast.

188
00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: He was jumping on some podcasts that were done by liberals.

189
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 1: He's inviting liberals in there because Gavin Newsom has confidence

190
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 1: in one thing and that is boy, oh boy, oh boy,

191
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: can I talk. I can sling the bs with the

192
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 1: best of them. What he has going against him is

193
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 1: the state that he runs is a total train wreck.

194
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: He's destroyed California. California is an absolute mess. Businesses are leaving,

195
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: taxes are high, the Great cities are a washing crime.

196
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,440
Speaker 1: It's a hell. That's what he is going against him.

197
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: But when he has going for him is boy oh boy,

198
00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 1: can he talk. And he looks the party. I mean,

199
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,760
Speaker 1: the hair is never out of place, and he's in

200
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,840
Speaker 1: with himself and he has overwhelmed with self confidence and

201
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: he can talk. So there's him. So over the weekend

202
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: he goes to Atlanta, nowhere near California. This is part

203
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 1: of the Gavin Newsom presidential campaign. He's interviewed by the

204
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 1: mayor of Atlanta, who's African American. Initially the reports were

205
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: that the crowd was predominantly black. It was apparently lots

206
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: of people. So who it was he was referring to.

207
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 1: Was he referring to black people? Well, he said it

208
00:13:29,679 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: to a black mayor who was the interviewer. I'm just

209
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 1: like you. I'm just like you. I'm a nine to

210
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,559
Speaker 1: sixty SAT guy. By the way, when I was in

211
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: high school, we took the ACT, not the SAT. I

212
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,199
Speaker 1: had to look up for first. When I first heard

213
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: that answer, I was trying to I couldn't remember what

214
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 1: the scale on the SAT was. Is he bragging about

215
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 1: how high he is or is this alone? Well, it's bad,

216
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:01,439
Speaker 1: it's very low. And then he says he can't read.

217
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 1: He said, I can't read a speech. I'm just like you.

218
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 1: Is he saying to black people, I'm not very smart.

219
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: I only got a nine to sixty SAT. I'm dumb

220
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,439
Speaker 1: like you. Is that what he was saying. Is he

221
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,600
Speaker 1: saying this to the mayor? Or? Is he saying this

222
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: to America, Hey, America, you're all dumb. I'm dumb too.

223
00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 1: I mean serious, I'm trying to figure out what the

224
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:31,960
Speaker 1: intent of His point was when he says I'm just

225
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 1: like you and then comes up with I can't read

226
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 1: and I have bad SAT scores. He's been fried for this.

227
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: He doesn't even know how to respond, so he's trying

228
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 1: to do. What do you do when you're backed into

229
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: a corner and you've done something terribly and defensively, You

230
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,720
Speaker 1: change the subject, And the subject, of course, is just Trump.

231
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:01,120
Speaker 1: He fired back at Sean Hannity in a post online, saying, yeah, well,

232
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 1: your guy put out this racist video in which you know,

233
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,520
Speaker 1: he's got the ape video on the whole thing, which

234
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 1: has of course nothing to do with what it was

235
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:17,160
Speaker 1: that he said, without regarding there are a lot of

236
00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 1: takes on that whole video. It appeared to be a

237
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 1: run on video to the next one that they didn't snip.

238
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 1: But whether Trump knew what he was posting or he

239
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 1: didn't know what he was posting is literally neither hearing

240
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: nor there, because my point here is that Democrats are

241
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 1: looking to their future, their candidate who it's going to be.

242
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 1: But that's all new Sin could come up with in

243
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: his response. He didn't want because he's so full of

244
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,640
Speaker 1: himself and could never be self effacing, which actually is

245
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: a good political trade to be able to make fun

246
00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 1: of yourself a little bit, which Trump always does. Trump

247
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: is so over the top that everybody knows that what

248
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 1: he's doing is with a wink and a nod. Newsom

249
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 1: can't do that. Newsom can't come back and say I

250
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:06,000
Speaker 1: really butchered that. He can't do that. He can't come

251
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: back and say I wasn't referring to black people, because

252
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: then people would ask him, well, who then, who were

253
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: you referring to. So that's the Democrats. So if you're

254
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: like a rank and file Democrat that's out there right now,

255
00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: which one of those people excites you, then there's all

256
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:28,960
Speaker 1: the moderates. The governor of Virginia is going to give

257
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,640
Speaker 1: the response to the State of the Union. They're passing

258
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 1: or off as a moderate. But these you know, these

259
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: people that are out in the street, shove it around,

260
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 1: ice officers and so on, they're not interested in any moderate.

261
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 1: You've got Shapiro of Pennsylvania, but sure of Kentucky that

262
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,680
Speaker 1: I'm excited by them. The point that I'm making is

263
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:53,360
Speaker 1: they're not excited or goosebumpy about any Democrat that's out there. None.

264
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: I go back to when I was younger, when you

265
00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: know the party and power was in place and you're

266
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 1: looking for your own candidate. Every this would be about

267
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 1: the time that people would start rallying around, no matter

268
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 1: what the year was. Go back to the seventies, Jimmy

269
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: Carter mou'd all and all of that. Go back to

270
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,840
Speaker 1: the eighties when you know Teddy Kennedy was running against

271
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 1: Jimmy Carter. They got nothing, So all they have is

272
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 1: their outlet is to attack Trump. So to attack Trump,

273
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:20,920
Speaker 1: they have to attack what it is that he's doing.

274
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 1: And I'm just telling you that it's all pretend. The

275
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 1: Ice thing is all fake. Barack Obama was called the

276
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 1: deporter in chief. There were ice raids all the time

277
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,719
Speaker 1: on my account on x formerly Nimouswitter, which you all

278
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: should follow because it's the only way to hear from me.

279
00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:41,720
Speaker 1: Right now, I've been posting much more there because I'm

280
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:45,840
Speaker 1: on the hiatus. On the podcast, I posted this long

281
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,040
Speaker 1: news story that CNN did during the Obama years in

282
00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: which they did a ride along with ICE as they

283
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: were out there apprehending criminals, and it was all done

284
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: positively about what a great thing this was. It was

285
00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: only ten years ago. So the very thing that Ice

286
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: is doing now was being done ten years ago and

287
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 1: no one was bothered by it at all. Because they're

288
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 1: not bothered by it. They are pretending to be bothered

289
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,520
Speaker 1: by it because they need to have an outlet to

290
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: bash Trump. The tariffs without regard to your position on tariff's,

291
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 1: tariffs were more of a Democrat thing than a Republican

292
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:27,360
Speaker 1: thing for the longest time. They're not outraged over this.

293
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 1: They are pretending to be outraged if Kamala won and

294
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:34,160
Speaker 1: she slapped out a bunch of tariffs, or for that matter,

295
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,240
Speaker 1: if AOC oh my god, I can't even say. If

296
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 1: AOC wins and becomes the president in twenty nine and

297
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 1: she does dips, they won't be bothered by it. They're

298
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:52,359
Speaker 1: not against tariffs, it's pretend. And then Epstein. The Epstein

299
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: thing was covered up the entire eight years Obama was

300
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:59,359
Speaker 1: president and no one paid any attention to it. During

301
00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 1: the four years Biden, no one paid any attention to Epstein.

302
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,680
Speaker 1: Now suddenly they decided that Trump is all tied into Epstein,

303
00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: whether he is or is in. And I think the

304
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: only tie and you see between Trump and Epstein is

305
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: they were both hanging around Palm beat. Trump was never

306
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 1: at the island. Trump said bad things about Epstein. There

307
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 1: wasn't any of that. But they have to try to

308
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,919
Speaker 1: pretend now that they are outraged over Epstein. When did

309
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: they become outraged over Epstein? When did they become out

310
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 1: Why aren't they outraged over Bill Clinton and the Clintons

311
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,120
Speaker 1: and their connection Epstein. Why aren't they bothered by Reid

312
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 1: Hoff and they're big, huge super donor, the guy who

313
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:42,640
Speaker 1: founded LinkedIn and his ties to Epstein. It's all fake.

314
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 1: They are looking for reasons to hate Trump, but they

315
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:51,440
Speaker 1: don't have any actual reasons to hate Trump, and therefore

316
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 1: the reactions that they give you are these over the

317
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 1: top screaming When you look at all of these suburban women,

318
00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 1: you know, ICE is now kind of and out of

319
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 1: Minneapolis with that operation. And let's be honest about this.

320
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: If ICE isn't going to get support from the local

321
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,640
Speaker 1: police agencies, it's very hard to come in and do deportations.

322
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 1: And we can talk all we want about deporting all

323
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 1: of the illegal immigrants in this country, but when you

324
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 1: have an ICE team of eight people having to confront

325
00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 1: five thousand people that are trying to obstruct them from

326
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,000
Speaker 1: doing their duty, it becomes an impossibility. So if all

327
00:20:26,040 --> 00:20:29,399
Speaker 1: we do is remove all the illegal immigrants from the

328
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: Red states that are going to give local support to ICE,

329
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,080
Speaker 1: let's accomplish that. The point that I make, though, is

330
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: when you see this hysterical reaction from so many of

331
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:43,800
Speaker 1: these suburban women trying to stop the ICE, none of

332
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: that is real. These are people that are hateful, angry

333
00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: people looking for an outlet to spew the venom that

334
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:55,280
Speaker 1: is just shrilling around in on their insides. Because if

335
00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 1: it was real, that outrage would have manifested itself at

336
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: some point when Barack Obama was throwing people out of

337
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: the country right and left. But it didn't. A couple

338
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 1: of other quick takes. Robin Boss is not running for reelection,

339
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: leaving a speaker of the Wisconsin State Assembly. I'm not

340
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,879
Speaker 1: even a newspaper column about that this week, which you

341
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 1: can find at gmtoday dot com. Sometimes it's behind a paywall,

342
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: sometimes it's not. It's not out yet as I'm doing

343
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: this podcast on a Tuesday, but it'll out after that.

344
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: It's hard to assess Robin Boss because, as many of

345
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,159
Speaker 1: you who listen to the old radio show no, I

346
00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 1: mean I occasionally battened Robin's head around like he was

347
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:44,600
Speaker 1: a bobblehead doll. On the other hand, he's, without doubt,

348
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,320
Speaker 1: along with Scott Walker, the most consequential Republican in the

349
00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: state of Wisconsin in the last thirty years. The thing

350
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:55,840
Speaker 1: about Robin is he was incredibly smart. I say it

351
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 1: was as if he's dead his tenure. He was very,

352
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 1: very smart. He was a master fundraiser. He had the

353
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,000
Speaker 1: ability to get anything through the State Assembly he wanted passed,

354
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,840
Speaker 1: and stop anything that he didn't want to get through

355
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: the state Assembly. The problem with all of that is

356
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 1: is that I think that it occasionally meant that he

357
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: was out of touch with a lot of Republican rank

358
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: and filers. My greatest summary of Robin Boss is he

359
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 1: was probably the most despised Republican in the state by

360
00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: Democrats and by Republicans. And given the fact that speakers

361
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:34,440
Speaker 1: tend to be unpopular among members of both parties legislative

362
00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: leaders are, it's probably an indication on the overall he

363
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 1: did a very very good job the Olympics. I mean,

364
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 1: could they have been any better? One brief comment on

365
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 1: the explosion of patriotism in the wake of the Americans

366
00:22:54,600 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: winning the hockey gold medal, lefties are upset that President

367
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 1: Trump put in a call to the hockey team in

368
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: the locker room. This bothers them. Do you know how

369
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,639
Speaker 1: long I've been watching presidents of the United States call Champion?

370
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,680
Speaker 1: I mean the President used to call the Super Bowl?

371
00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:15,560
Speaker 1: At all this has been going I mean it may

372
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,639
Speaker 1: have been. I think it's been going on since before Reagan.

373
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,200
Speaker 1: I don't know that it has ever bothered anybody of

374
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,760
Speaker 1: either political party at all, which, again, this tells me

375
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,719
Speaker 1: that it's all fake. Now I think I'm doing this

376
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,800
Speaker 1: the afternoon of the State of the Union. Is it true,

377
00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 1: Paul or Jason that that the hockey team is going

378
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: to be at the State of the Union? The men's

379
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:41,720
Speaker 1: will be, and the women's team declined the opportunity to

380
00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: go there, and some people are criticizing them for that.

381
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 1: My whole point is if people want to go and

382
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,320
Speaker 1: support the president, they can, but if they don't, that's

383
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 1: their prerogative too, and we shouldn't be hating on people

384
00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: for either side. It's not like you have an obligation

385
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: to go. But it also doesn't mean that it isn't

386
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,560
Speaker 1: a great thing that if you want to go. If

387
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 1: I was a great athlete in Barack Obama invited me

388
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,760
Speaker 1: after I won some championship, I wouldn't have gone, and

389
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,919
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have gone for Biden. And I recall some

390
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,960
Speaker 1: people didn't go when those people were in place. That's

391
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:14,880
Speaker 1: their right and it's no reason to hate on them

392
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,720
Speaker 1: either way. But I'm telling you, I think far fewer

393
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:20,199
Speaker 1: conservatives are mad at the women's team for not going,

394
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 1: then lefties are going to hate on the men's team

395
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,360
Speaker 1: for going, which says a lot about them. All right,

396
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,879
Speaker 1: podcast is going to be returning May First, some announcements.
