1 00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:05,960 Speaker 1: It's nice with Dan Ray. I'm telling you Boston Radio. 2 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 2: I want to get back to talking about the specifics 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,480 Speaker 2: in President Trump's speech tonight. But we ended last hour 4 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,520 Speaker 2: with William from Kingston, and I promised that would bring 5 00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,760 Speaker 2: him back because he didn't have a lot of time. William, 6 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:26,200 Speaker 2: you wanted to, I think, talk about Biden's full term 7 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 2: in office. Correct, Well I. 8 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: Did, but I didn't. I just want to say one 9 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: more thing Dan that I've listened. You know, I had 10 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: to be on hold for a while, and I have 11 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: to give you a lot of credit for your patients 12 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,200 Speaker 1: with your callers. You're you know, a lot of people 13 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,599 Speaker 1: call up and they're not really the fact straight and 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 1: it's just impressive how you handle them and how patient 15 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: you are with them. 16 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: Well, I appreciate that. So so during the break, I 17 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: went to a website. It's called FactCheck dot org. Uh, 18 00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: you might want to look at it yourself. It's called 19 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: it's a adjective, the Edinburgh Public Policy Center. It's considered 20 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: to be a very reliable fact as his name suggests, 21 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 2: fact checked out or get a place that reduces numbers. 22 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,559 Speaker 2: So they did a summary of Joe Biden's final numbers 23 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: then there's a little bit here that I'll give to 24 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 2: you and we can go back and forth a little bit. 25 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 2: They write the final numbers for Joe Biden's full term, 26 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 2: and nearly all in here's a rundown of various statistical 27 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 2: measures during his presidency. I won't go down through all 28 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: of them, but we've got to remember. I think it's 29 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: so important to remember that that COVID arrived in this 30 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 2: country in January, late January of twenty twenty, so it 31 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: dominated the first year that the last year of Trump's 32 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 2: first first time in office. It also was dominant for 33 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:56,040 Speaker 2: at least a year and a half the first part 34 00:01:56,120 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 2: of Joe Biden's term, so it arguably skewed all these 35 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 2: numbers a little bit. But both terms, it wasn't like 36 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 2: COVID came, you know, after Trump left. It was here 37 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: for a year, and it spanned the two administrations, the 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: last year of Trump's administration in the first year and 39 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 2: a half, and then it sort of its impact dwindled. 40 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: So this is what FactCheck dot Org rights. Under Joe Biden, 41 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 2: inflation roared back, shrinking the value of workers' paychecks. Consumer 42 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: prices rose twenty one and a half percent, gasoline rose 43 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: thirty one percent, and adjusting for inflation, private sector average 44 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 2: weekly earning shrank four percent. In that one paragraph, it 45 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 2: shows why Donald Trump was reelected. 46 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty four exactly. 47 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 2: Okay, the economy did regain millions of jobs lost during 48 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: the coronavirus or the COVID pandemic, and around six million 49 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 2: more were created. A lot of those jobs were in 50 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:04,959 Speaker 2: the public sector. Unemployment average four point one percent, well 51 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,240 Speaker 2: below the historical average, which is pretty much where it 52 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 2: is right now with Trump. Now, let's see what his 53 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: economic reforms, what impact they have as we move into 54 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: twenty twenty six and beyond, and that will decide whether 55 00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: or not the Republicans are unceremoniously turned out of office 56 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: in mass in Moss next November, and Donald Trump then 57 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: becomes a Lane Duk president. The final book may be 58 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 2: in on Biden, but it is still developing or the 59 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: final pictures still developing under Trump. So there were things 60 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: that were good. The stock market rose under Biden, as 61 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 2: it has risen under Trump after tax Corporate profits continue 62 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 2: to trends under Biden, and there's there's a lot of that. 63 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,640 Speaker 2: But the US trade deficit in goods and services grew 64 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 2: under Biden by nearly forty percent. Home prices rose thirty 65 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 2: seven point four percent. So it's it's it's a very 66 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 2: mixed bag. 67 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,040 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, And. 68 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 2: If you get a chance to look at fact check 69 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: dot org, I can't even begin to go through all. 70 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: Dan. I don't disagree with anything you're saying. I am 71 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: not a big Biden guy. Maybe you maybe thought that 72 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: I would be. 73 00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,359 Speaker 2: No, I didn't, but I just wanted to get some 74 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: of the numbers here on the record. 75 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: So in twenty twenty two, inflation went up ten percent, 76 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: and that was the result of some of the bills 77 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: that he passed to try to help people out with. Yes, 78 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: you know of the lots of income as a result 79 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: of the pandemic, and certainly that and that went up, 80 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: and you can go back and forth about that, and 81 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: I think that's why he lost the election. I think 82 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: people vote from their pocketbooks. 83 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 2: I agree. 84 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 1: And that inflation that in Josan's twenty was pretty much 85 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: his death. Now. So now we go to Trump and 86 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: here's Trump and he's saying I'm going to bring prices down, 87 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 1: and I think we'd all agree that they're pretty much 88 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: where they were, you know, something's down. 89 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 2: Something well, somethings are. Some things are dramatically up. Coke, 90 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 2: chocolate products, candy, and and things like that. Believe me, 91 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 2: I buy that stuff. 92 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: And I don't know, but Tim, let's let's not get 93 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,080 Speaker 1: into into that. But that's that's But what I would 94 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 1: say is that I do remember in the last year 95 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: of Biden's presidency, pretty much every year, every I'm sorry, 96 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: every month, he would have about one hundred and eighty 97 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 1: thousand dollars of jobs created. And that went on for 98 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:59,720 Speaker 1: probably a good year, if not more, and also in 99 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: place finally did flat out. So now we have Trump 100 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,239 Speaker 1: and we've either lost jobs or maybe gained a few 101 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:14,359 Speaker 1: because of his his policies with tariffs. I think we 102 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: have to agree that things are not what they were. 103 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 1: Not that Biden was a great president, but now we're 104 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 1: down to the point where we're creating very huge jobs 105 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: and we might be rolling into recession. Who knows. I'm 106 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 1: not saying we're going to, but it's not what is. 107 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 2: Come on, you know, we're trying to keep you here, William, I'm. 108 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: Sorry, I'm sorry, But for her to say that we're 109 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: the hottest country in the world, that's how that let. 110 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: Me just say this, that is political hyperbole. Okay. However, however, 111 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 2: I think what he is trying to say is that 112 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 2: we are bringing back his tariffs are forcing companies to 113 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: consider about bringing back factories in manufacturing jobs to America. 114 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 2: I think that's what he's saying. 115 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: That he is saying that dam But hold on, let's 116 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:10,520 Speaker 1: think for a second. Do you think suddenly these companies 117 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: that have been getting great deals from Korea and China 118 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 1: are suddenly going to re invest everything in America and 119 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: suddenly we're suddenly going to have this amazing you know, 120 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 1: America reoccurrence, if it even happens. 121 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 2: Well, I can tell you that one of the things 122 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: that he mentioned tonight, which is accurate, Which is accurate, 123 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: companies have pledged to bring back about eighteen trillion dollars 124 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 2: in manufacturing that might have been planned for overseas. And 125 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 2: if that happens, he will be a transformational president. We 126 00:07:53,000 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: have lost jobs through Republicans and Democratic administrations for decades. 127 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: But Dan, you're talking hyper purply, and that's hyperpole. Yes, 128 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm sure. 129 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 2: High it's hype probably to say with the no, it's 130 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: hyperbole to say with the hottest Uh, you know economy, 131 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 2: that's hyper. I'm with you on that. But when companies 132 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: come and say we're bringing factories back, We're bringing manufacturing 133 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: jobs back that were overseas. Again, that is part of 134 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 2: the tariffs. The tariffs is is the whip or the 135 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 2: or is the is the stick and and the and 136 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: then the fact that you can manufacture uh and bring 137 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 2: back jobs to America. That will help the economy. Look, uh, 138 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: it will. 139 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: But last last thing I would say is it will. 140 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: But it will happen. It's not going to happen in 141 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: six months or a year. It's gonna happen in four 142 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: or five years. If it happened. 143 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 2: Nothing happens overnight. But I do believe, I do believe 144 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 2: that we have the potential of turning our economy around. 145 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 2: We have to bring home the manufacture of computer chips. 146 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: We found out that in the in the early twenty 147 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: twenties when we had supply change chain interruptions and we 148 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: couldn't get medicines here. We've allowed very critical products to 149 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: be produced overseas by Democrats and Republicans alike. Trump is intent. 150 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: Whether he will be successful, we will tell in time. 151 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 2: If he is successful, he will be a transactional president. 152 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 2: If he's a failure, Well. 153 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 1: Do we not live in a world economy where some 154 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: things are made better in other areas than we are? 155 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: Can we? 156 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 2: I don't think there's anything. I don't think there's anything 157 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 2: that there's stuff that's made cheaper in other parts of 158 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,679 Speaker 2: the world. But the reason but I don't think anything 159 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: that's made better anywhere in the world. Can you tell 160 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,199 Speaker 2: me one thing that has made better overseas in terms 161 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 2: of quality than here in America. 162 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: Obviously there are things that China has. They have certain 163 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 1: elements that we can't get here that we have to 164 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 1: deal with. 165 00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 2: Well, though, you're talking to real earth minerals from I 166 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 2: get it. Yeah, Okay, right, William. I think I also 167 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 2: think William, in honesty, you're a little over your head here. 168 00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 2: I think you need to look at it and realize 169 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: that all the results are not in he is. Just 170 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 2: just trust me on this one. Let's see where the 171 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: economy is. The test of Trump is not where the 172 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 2: economy is today. It is not what his ratings are today. 173 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 2: His ratings today are bad, particularly on the economy, There's 174 00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 2: no question about that. Okay, But let's see where they 175 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 2: are six months from now where they are. 176 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: Not what they're gonna be worse. 177 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 2: Well, that's your opinion. That's an opinion. You'll welcome your opinion. 178 00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 2: But I'm not gonna accept that as a fact. Okay, 179 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 2: he's betting his he's betting his president, this smart guy. 180 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,880 Speaker 1: Are the tariffs going to bring prices down? I don't 181 00:11:16,920 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 1: think so. 182 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 2: The tariffs are not intended to bring prices down. However, 183 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:27,319 Speaker 2: the tariffs have not caused the damage that many predicted 184 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,959 Speaker 2: last April. William, calm back more often and we will 185 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 2: drop them. 186 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 1: Listen, you are a great guy, and you are the 187 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: mother Teresa of talk radio. 188 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 2: Not a problem. Thank you, Thank you, William. We'll take 189 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,959 Speaker 2: a break. We're coming back. We got one line six, 190 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 2: one seirty. I want your reaction to Trump's speech tonight. 191 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 2: That's what I'm looking for. That's what we can analyze tonight. 192 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna discuss or debate with the economy might 193 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 2: be two years. I have a view of it. I 194 00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 2: think he had he betting everything that he might be 195 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 2: a transactional president. If you don't understand what I mean, 196 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 2: I'll be happy to explain it. But back on nights 197 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 2: that after this. 198 00:12:08,120 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 1: It's night side with Boston's news radio. 199 00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 2: Where are we going next? I'm going to try to 200 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 2: get everybody in here, Bernie in New Hampshire, Bernie got 201 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: to help me out here, Go right ahead, Bertie, Hey, 202 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: how were doing this? I'm hoping I can get everybody 203 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 2: to be a little tight of here so we can 204 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: get more points of view about his speech. 205 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just want to talk about my reactions. And 206 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 3: you know, I'm not I'm a Trump's supportive, but I'm 207 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:40,559 Speaker 3: also a Trump believer. I just believe that it was 208 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,560 Speaker 3: it was laser focus tonight. He didn't go off on 209 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,079 Speaker 3: a tangent, which made me very happy because he has 210 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 3: attendency to do that. He was highlighting. 211 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: What he we elected him for. This is what people 212 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: voted for. 213 00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,120 Speaker 3: Him, voting from him. They got it, and it was 214 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 3: highlighting at good points. And I don't know all the facts. 215 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 3: I'm driving. Eventually the facts will come out on his numbers. 216 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 3: And I just believe that he's he's trying to just 217 00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 3: show you that he's only what's good for his country, 218 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,680 Speaker 3: what he believes is good for his country. Let me 219 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 3: put it that way. I just believe he was very 220 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,480 Speaker 3: focused tonight for some reason. 221 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 2: Well, He needs to be focused because when he goes 222 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 2: off script, it's a disaster. He thinks of himself as 223 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 2: more of a an entertainer and a comedian, which is 224 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,880 Speaker 2: which is where he came out of. He's obviously somebody 225 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 2: who is a builder, no question about that. But he ran, 226 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,720 Speaker 2: he did a TV show, and he has to realize 227 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 2: he's now president of the United States. So yeah, I 228 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 2: can only tell you that, you know that it's like 229 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 2: anything else, everybody brings their bias to this. I'm trying 230 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 2: to not bang a bias. I'm trying to just read 231 00:13:54,960 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 2: what people say. Uh is that you know? There is 232 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:04,120 Speaker 2: one reporter here from The Times who writes in some 233 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: ways Trump finds himself in a situation similar to what 234 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 2: President Biden faced on the economy. Throughout the previous administration, 235 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: Biden and his advisors frequently argue the economy was in 236 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,480 Speaker 2: better shape than the public believed, using charts and figures. 237 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 2: Trump is attempting to make a similar case tonight. We 238 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 2: won't know he's if he makes that case for at 239 00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,160 Speaker 2: least a year. Also, this is David Saying, or White 240 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,160 Speaker 2: House reporter for The Times. The Warrior dividend of seventeen 241 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: seventy six supposed to come from tariff revenues, the president said, 242 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 2: but those revenues are not for the president to spend. 243 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 2: That's the purview of Congress. He also has talked about 244 00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:48,640 Speaker 2: giving two thousand all citizens except the wealthy, and claims 245 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 2: that over time income taxes will dwindle the promises uppace 246 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,400 Speaker 2: the revenue. That's a White House reporter who doesn't like 247 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. I can say this. You have a son 248 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 2: of the military. I'm glad that your son and every 249 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 2: other member of the military will receive a warrior dividend 250 00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 2: of seventeen hundred and seventy six dollars. They should get more, 251 00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 2: in my opinion, and we have. He has brought back 252 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 2: in terms of tariffs, some two hundred and fifty billion 253 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 2: dollars in tariffs. That's a lot of money, and let's 254 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 2: give it to people who deserve it, and the military 255 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 2: should be at the head. 256 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 1: Of the line. 257 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 3: Yes, I agree with one hundred percent, and they certainly 258 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,840 Speaker 3: do deserve it. They sacrifice a lot, not full lot 259 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 3: of money. But I agree with you. I think he's 260 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 3: gonna be a transformational president, but that remains to be seen. 261 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 3: You got East tariffs and that's gonna work. And that's 262 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 3: what that's what people don't have the patience money want 263 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 3: results today. Let's see what happens to give it night. 264 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,160 Speaker 2: I'm with you on that, Bernie, thank you so much. 265 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: Merry Christmas. 266 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 3: All you have a good night. 267 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: Dan. 268 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: Thank you. 269 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 2: Listen. Let me go next to Ken and Walta and Ken. 270 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 2: I normally give you a lot more time, but tonight 271 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 2: I'm struggle year to try to get everybody to be 272 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 2: as six sink as possible. 273 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: Go ahead, Ken, I will be as fast as I can. Yeah, 274 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: you know, I think just a couple of points on falsehoods. 275 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he said he's reducing some drug prices four 276 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: hundred six percent. I don't know how you can reduce 277 00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: the cost of anything more than one hundred percent. Absolutely, 278 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: we talked about he talked about gas prices and with 279 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: some states being at a dollar ninety nine a gallon, 280 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: he never mentions where they are. I mean, it's just 281 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 1: not true. 282 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,640 Speaker 2: No, there are there are gas stations in America in 283 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: different parts of the country, and I'm sure it's Louisiana, Oklahoma, 284 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 2: Texas where you can find the station at a dollar 285 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:45,360 Speaker 2: ninety nine. The average price of gasoline in America across 286 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: the country is now below three dollars. 287 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: So according to the Department of Energy, when Trump came 288 00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: into office, it was three dollars eight nationwide, now three 289 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: dollars five. 290 00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:05,479 Speaker 2: So I will, I want to know when did you 291 00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 2: pull those figures? 292 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: Uh like ten minutes ago? 293 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 2: Well, I know what I paid, I know what I 294 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,919 Speaker 2: pay for gas prices, and I know what I was 295 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 2: paying under Biden, and the disparity is a lot more 296 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 2: than five cents. 297 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 4: So I how much? 298 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this, ken, Ken, you live in Waltham, 299 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 2: What do you pay when you go to What do 300 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,399 Speaker 2: you pay for you?

What were you paying 309 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:49,919 Speaker 2: on average during the Biden administration on gasoline at the. 310 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,919 Speaker 1: End, at the end, I was paying under three dollars 311 00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: a gallon? Okay, but sure, of course, I mean it 312 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,400 Speaker 1: went up well over four, right, I mean I think 313 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:00,960 Speaker 1: it was close five around here. 314 00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 2: Yes it was, Yes it was. 315 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 1: But it hasn't it so, but it hasn't gone down 316 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 1: much since January. That's the thing. I mean, maybe maybe 317 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: it has. You know, you've found the right gas station 318 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:18,439 Speaker 1: for you, but it's just not true nationwide and on 319 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: the West Coast gas place you can go. 320 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 2: Well again, I don't I don't have in front of 321 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 2: me if you're telling me the Department of Energy is 322 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: saying that the average price nationwide, you said was three 323 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,840 Speaker 2: oh eight under Biden at the end, it was. 324 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:36,160 Speaker 1: Three oh eight in January twenty twenty five, it's three 325 00:18:36,200 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: oh five. Now I'll send you me now yellow. 326 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,360 Speaker 2: What else do you want to say? Because I only 327 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 2: to me that does not square with my own experience. 328 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 1: To be really honest, it's a big country, but the 329 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 1: only other, the only other thing because of the stuff 330 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: like this. And you know, he said energy prices under 331 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:02,639 Speaker 1: Biden costs the typical American household five to ten thousand 332 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: dollars a year. You know, I don't think most people 333 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: pay five to ten thousand dollars a year in energy 334 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 1: prices aside, But independent of all of that, it just 335 00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: sounded familiar to me when he was dealing with COVID, 336 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: and I thought he wasn't doing the right things. And 337 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: I think, you know, every governor who ran for re 338 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: election in twenty twenty who was an incumbenty want you know, 339 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:30,280 Speaker 1: Biden or Trump is the only executive who lost in 340 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: the United States in twenty twenty. And I think the 341 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:36,919 Speaker 1: people who are in the middle and a lot of 342 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: people on the right, you know, either the people in 343 00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: the middle switched and voted for Biden in twenty twenty, 344 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: and I think a lot of people in the right 345 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: stayed home. So I think I think Trump has to 346 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:53,960 Speaker 1: do better. And this relates to the Rob Reiner saying 347 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: a little bit because I heard one commentator say, how 348 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: how could the White House let him, you know, send 349 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: that post out? And another analyst said, well, you know, 350 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 1: with this administration, there's nobody who says no to him now, 351 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: and that's by design. And I think Trump's in danger 352 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:17,000 Speaker 1: of things going poorly and everybody's in total agreement with 353 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: what he says, and he needs more pushback. Now. 354 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 2: First of all, he gets pushed back from Susie Wilde. 355 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: Read the article that you just she just sat for. 356 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 2: Under Biden, we came to understand that he was not 357 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,720 Speaker 2: in charge, that there were people around him who were 358 00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:41,360 Speaker 2: in charge. I mean, you know, I mean, if I 359 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 2: just think ken that that he is taking trying to 360 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: take the country in a different direction, it's what called 361 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:53,119 Speaker 2: it's what's called being a transformational president. He is basically 362 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 2: saying he's cut more public jobs, you know, not only 363 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 2: in terms of a wash but in other states around 364 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 2: the country. And he's very proud of He's very proud 365 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:06,719 Speaker 2: of that, and there's a lot of people who are 366 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,439 Speaker 2: going to be upset about that. I get that, I 367 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 2: truly do get that. But the fact of the matter 368 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 2: is that that he has set us on a course 369 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 2: that is either going to be successful and he will 370 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 2: be uh he will be considered a transactional president, or 371 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: he'll be a failure and he'll be in the dustbin 372 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:33,199 Speaker 2: of history along with Herbert Hoover and other Republican failures. 373 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: I hope he changes. 374 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 2: I don't know. 375 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 1: I'm seeing the same kind of behavior as four or 376 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: five years ago during COVID, and I you know, you 377 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 1: might be right. Yeah again, it's my opinion, right, he said, So, 378 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 1: I just don't see a lot of effects. 379 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 2: Love reading from fact factcheckcheck dot org. Okay. The week 380 00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,720 Speaker 2: before Joe Biden took office, the national average price of 381 00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 2: regular gasoline the pump was two point two dollars thirty 382 00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 2: eight cents a gallon. That was still rising from the 383 00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 2: one point seven eight one dollars seventy eight cents low 384 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 2: point during the pandemic recession, which lasted from February to 385 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 2: April of twenty twenty. That was when we were getting 386 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,000 Speaker 2: hit with COVID. Okay. From there it shot up to 387 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 2: the highest ever requorded just over five dollars a gallon, 388 00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 2: ending in June of twenty twenty two, and the world 389 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 2: oil markets were disrupted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The 390 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,440 Speaker 2: week he left office, the price was down to three eleven, 391 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 2: still thirty one percent higher than when he came into office. 392 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 2: So anyway, those are the numbers. Ken, I gotta go. 393 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,840 Speaker 2: I'll give you more time next time. We've given you 394 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 2: six minutes.

I want your reaction 402 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 2: to the speech and try to put whatever bias you 403 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:31,800 Speaker 2: might have towards Trump. But let's just try to get 404 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 2: your reaction to the speech. I thought he gave probably 405 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: the most effective speech of his presidency. Uh. Let's see 406 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 2: where the numbers are in terms of polls a couple 407 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 2: of weeks from now. Let's see where we are in 408 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 2: terms of the economy a few months from now. Bill 409 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 2: is an easton Billia next on Nightside, Go right ahead, Dan. 410 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,800 Speaker 6: It was a short speech. He Hey, this guy's get 411 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 6: an ego, but he's full of vim and vega. Thirty 412 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,760 Speaker 6: minute speech is almost out of breath. He digressed a 413 00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 6: little bit. How are you gonna throw the shoes? He's 414 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 6: gonna give a third term. 415 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: He's not gonna get a third term. He's not eligible 416 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 2: for a third term. 417 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:12,720 Speaker 6: Anything's possible. 418 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 2: Uh no, no, anything is You know you're right. Anything 419 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:19,840 Speaker 2: is possible. You're right about that. You and I could 420 00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 2: be hit by a truck tomorrow. The world could end tomorrow. 421 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 1: Okay, but realistic in both counts. 422 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,640 Speaker 6: What's that highly unlikely on the book? 423 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 2: Those two counts, right, and and there's there's no way. 424 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 2: I'll tell you right now, market on your calendar and 425 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 2: call me back when I'm wrong. It's eleven forty. It's 426 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:43,400 Speaker 2: eleven forty. Okay, eleven forty on December seventh, twenty twenty five. 427 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 2: There is no way possible, politically or legally for Donald 428 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 2: Trump to begin a third term in office. And he 429 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,919 Speaker 2: has in effect said so himself. He is living in 430 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 2: people's heads by by playing you know, well, I could 431 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,680 Speaker 2: do even better. No, he will be eighty three years old, 432 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:03,560 Speaker 2: and he will be. 433 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 6: I totally get it, okay, all day. So he did 434 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 6: a heck of a job. And it is a lot 435 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 6: of hyperbole. By the way, I don't work for this 436 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 6: gas station, but I pay two to forty eight a 437 00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:16,400 Speaker 6: gallon full serve cash and Holbrook. 438 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:18,720 Speaker 2: I've heard of those stations, but. 439 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 6: That salves and it's right on thirty. Yeah, it's the 440 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 6: one across the streets are penny more. 441 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 2: Okay, No, that's fine, that's fine. And uh, and let's sitit. 442 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 2: You know, I've been reading from you know what's what's 443 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 2: called fact org dot com, which is a very fact 444 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 2: check excuse me, dot org FactCheck dot org a project 445 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 2: at the Edinburgh Public Policy Center. Not hardly what you 446 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:50,879 Speaker 2: would call a right wing a group. Let's put it 447 00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 2: like that. I think they call it down the middle. 448 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 6: I was gonna say earlier, you call it, you asking, 449 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 6: you call it what is made outside this country that 450 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 6: we can't make better the same or better? Hey, I 451 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 6: was gonna inject a little human say maybe coffee and bananas, 452 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 6: But I think we have territories we can grow them in. 453 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 2: But yeah, we can grow bananas. 454 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 6: And I believe what about the Japanese with their cars. 455 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 2: I I think that that if America puts their mind 456 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 2: to it, we can make cars competitive with Japan. I'm 457 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 2: a guy that has bought like five Vovals. I'll never 458 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 2: buy another Vovo again. I think that Vovo is now 459 00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 2: gone as a great car company. And I remember when 460 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 2: when American cars were horrible, were horrible, But I think 461 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:42,080 Speaker 2: American cars are better. They're on the ascent and and 462 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 2: certain certain cars foreign cars are heading downward in my mind, and. 463 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 6: Uh, you're going to pay a pretty penny for it. 464 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 6: The cheapest one is the Chevy Tracks, small suv vow twenties, 465 00:26:55,920 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 6: but you can't all the all the all the economy 466 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 6: models have been ceased to be being produced. Well, if 467 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,840 Speaker 6: I think it's deliberate. 468 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 2: Well let me say this. If we can manufacture cars 469 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: here in this country that are competitive with the best 470 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 2: foreign cars, I'll be willing to buy an American car 471 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,280 Speaker 2: because it's going to keep American jobs at home and 472 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 2: it's going to make our economy stronger. That's what I 473 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 2: believe in. 474 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 6: Okay, what do you think about people paying an extra 475 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 6: forty dollars for this new blue license plate one hundred 476 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 6: bucks instead the sixty guess one registration. 477 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 2: If you want to, you know, have be able to 478 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 2: tell your grandchildren that you bought that license plate. That's 479 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,439 Speaker 2: the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary. That's great. It's like 480 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 2: the people that buy license plates to support the Bruins 481 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:45,879 Speaker 2: and Celtics. 482 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:47,959 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's true. And you can pay more on your 483 00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 6: income tax. You can check a box. 484 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,400 Speaker 2: Most people don't want to do that, but there's a value. 485 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: There's a value. We live in a free society and 486 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 2: there's a value. So that's all. You know, They at 487 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 2: some point probably they're not going to do this, but 488 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 2: they could get to the point where they could say, Hey, 489 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 2: if you want to have your license plate, I love 490 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 2: the Second Amendment. I'm sure there's a lot of people 491 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 2: who would pay a little extra to have a license 492 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 2: plate that says I love the Second Amendment.

I got 503 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 2: you in here before the break, and you've waited long enough. 504 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 2: I didn't want to have to have to wait through 505 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 2: a commercial. 506 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 4: Go right ahead, of course, thank you. 507 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: So. 508 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:45,240 Speaker 4: I was just thinking about a couple of lines of 509 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 4: sadism about what he said tonight during this eighteen minute speech. 510 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 4: A couple of lines he said they were wedding men 511 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 4: playing on the sports transgender for everybody. Another line about 512 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 4: immigration issue Biden. He slipped, he said, we've never been 513 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,479 Speaker 4: invaded before, and then he trailed off and said it 514 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 4: was so so bad. I'm Nico opportunity Dan. I criticized 515 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 4: Biden every single time he had a gaff. I'm never 516 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 4: the sad thing than a Trump. He's slipping and more 517 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 4: and more, it's becoming obvious. And he was he was 518 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 4: focused tonight. The speech was focused, was organized, yep, But 519 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 4: he trailed and he's and there are moments where I'm thinking, Okay, first. 520 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 2: Of all, I missed that. And obviously we were invaded 521 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 2: through immigration, okay, meaning they were yes, okay, But I 522 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 2: think what he might have been alluding to is nine 523 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 2: to eleven, which happened on George Bush's watch. I'd have 524 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: to go back and listen to it. I was taking 525 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 2: notes feverishly. I did not hear what you heard. I 526 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,719 Speaker 2: don't dispute that what you heard was accurate, okay, But 527 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,360 Speaker 2: I don't think this guy is slipping. Intellectually. 528 00:29:58,960 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 4: He holds nothing, not intellectually, but I'm thinking just he's 529 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 4: talking off the coff but he's trying to keep on 530 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:09,520 Speaker 4: those monitor But. 531 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 2: He had a script in front of him tonight. I 532 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 2: guarantee you there was a script in front of him tonight, 533 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 2: and he had visual age teleprompters. You know, if there'd 534 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 2: been a wide shot, if you notice the whole shot 535 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,960 Speaker 2: started stay tight on him for the entire time. If 536 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 2: they went to a wide shot, you would have seen 537 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 2: the teleprompters both to his left and to his right. 538 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 2: I'm telling you that was not a no one could 539 00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 2: have done that eighteen minutes and hit those number of 540 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 2: items that he did. That was not him speaking off 541 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 2: the cuff to a. 542 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,719 Speaker 4: Crowd right the end. One quick thing on policy, real 543 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 4: quick on we walk quick. I'm just I'm curious of 544 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 4: what's going to happen this next calendar year going into 545 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 4: twenty six. I'm curious. He mentioned he's going to be 546 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 4: releasing some policy papers about the housing issues and the 547 00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:00,400 Speaker 4: cost of housing. I think he said in January. Curiously, 548 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 4: what comes of that? Like to see in address the 549 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 4: costs of steel, costs of lumber, the costs actually build houses. 550 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 4: I want to see this administration get really concrete about this. 551 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 4: And I want to know what he's saying. That the 552 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 4: cost of prescription drug is going to go down, I want, 553 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 4: I want how are they going to try and get 554 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 4: at these these these healthcare opinions that are being deducted. Adam, Adam. 555 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 4: I checked there every check. You know, everything is going 556 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 4: up from price. And I just don't think that that 557 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 4: piece of the messaging is being conveyed. 558 00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,400 Speaker 2: You know, well, I hear, I hear what you're saying. 559 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 2: It's one thing to say you're going to do something. 560 00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 2: It's another thing to do it. So what you're saying is, 561 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 2: in effect, show me the money. It's what you're saying, okay, 562 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 2: And what you mean by that is show me the savings. 563 00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: He laid it out tonight. Let's see what can happen. 564 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 2: The fact of the matter is gas prices are down. 565 00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,880 Speaker 2: That is good for all of us, Okay, and that 566 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 2: part of that is because of Drill, Baby, drill, which 567 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 2: he talked about for years. Let's hope that I want 568 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 2: him to succeed, just like I wanted Joe Biden to succeed, 569 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 2: because I want more money in my pocket. I want 570 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,440 Speaker 2: money in your pocket. It did not work well for 571 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. It was the disastrous four years in many respects. 572 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 2: I'm not sure who was running the White House. I 573 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 2: know who's running the White House. Right now. And the 574 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 2: idea is that he's articulating to me sound promising, but 575 00:32:27,720 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 2: they only sound promising. Let's see if those promises are fulfilled. 576 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 2: We will know within a year. 577 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:37,160 Speaker 4: I agree. 578 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:41,040 Speaker 2: Thanks, Thanks, got to run, Matt, Thank you much.

Uh, America 601 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 7: rose up when we were attacked by Japan and switched 602 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:10,719 Speaker 7: industries and overcame all the problems of World War Two. 603 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,640 Speaker 7: You know, people don't they don't appreciate history, and they 604 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 7: just go off what they hear on you know, major media. 605 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,680 Speaker 7: I do appreciate you beating back on some of the 606 00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 7: comments that were done tonight. You gotta let a president 607 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 7: do his job, and uh, he's gonna do a good job. 608 00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 7: He's gotta let him do it. 609 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 2: I mean, I think again, no one can do No 610 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,000 Speaker 2: one can turn the economy around. No one can turn 611 00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 2: the economy around overnight. He's had eleven months. What he has, 612 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:44,760 Speaker 2: the path that he's on, he has to continue down. 613 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:48,759 Speaker 2: Let us see what happens. The only people who I 614 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 2: think have lost immensely during his time in office are 615 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:56,279 Speaker 2: those people who were here illegally and who have either 616 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 2: self deported or been deported. 617 00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:01,760 Speaker 7: Now at the say, people got to remember our tax 618 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 7: dollars are here to benefit American citizens, you know, and 619 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 7: they and there's no beating that back. You know, the 620 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 7: people that work in work eighty hours a week just 621 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 7: to keep their own stuff going and pay taxes do 622 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 7: not appreciate. Uh, you know, their tax dollar is going 623 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 7: where they don't belong, right, And. 624 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:21,359 Speaker 2: That's that is in large part why he won. And 625 00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 2: let us see if his philosophy very different from from 626 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 2: Joe Biden and very different for the Republican Party. As 627 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,240 Speaker 2: I say, he has the potential to become a transformational president. 628 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 2: We'll see. 629 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 8: Oh, I thank you for that correction, Dan. 630 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,319 Speaker 7: And I don't know if you remember that right when 631 00:35:38,360 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 7: he first came into office the first time around, he 632 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,400 Speaker 7: pushed a company called Carrier around a little bit and 633 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 7: made them, you know, continue to manufacture in the United States. 634 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 2: Or I can remember that, Kevin. I got two other 635 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 2: guys behind me, behind you, who have waited just as long. 636 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,320 Speaker 2: I got to be fair. Thank you, my friend. Talk again, 637 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 2: Paul more often. I'll give you more time. Eddie and Boston. 638 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 2: Eddie got to be I got Mike and Beverley behind you. 639 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,280 Speaker 2: Go ahead, go ahead, Eddie. 640 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:07,759 Speaker 8: Yes, then you did really well trying to keep this 641 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:11,880 Speaker 8: conversation going. One thing I think that's a little disappointing 642 00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 8: with the speech is that Trump was a little chaotic 643 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 8: after announcing that you're gonna do it evening nighttime speech. 644 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:28,560 Speaker 8: It's got to be a very smooth, direct and to 645 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 8: the point, and just like always, he's always all over 646 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 8: the place. But we do have to give him the 647 00:36:34,239 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 8: benefit of the doubt because when we consider where we 648 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 8: were and where we are now, we definitely better off. 649 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:45,839 Speaker 2: Well, I think that's a pretty good analysis. I mean, 650 00:36:45,840 --> 00:36:47,560 Speaker 2: it was like it was like we were trying to 651 00:36:47,640 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 2: drink from the fire hose. But I think his intention 652 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 2: was to try to reach as many different constituencies and saying, hey, 653 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 2: this is what I've done, this is why it's better, 654 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: this is why it will be better. There were mistakes, 655 00:37:00,200 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 2: certainly there were. There was hyperbole, always hyperbole, but there 656 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 2: were more facts and figures and and and facts that 657 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 2: could be checked than hyperbole. And for that I give 658 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:11,320 Speaker 2: him credit. 659 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 8: Well, you should have written this speech for him. You 660 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:15,800 Speaker 8: did a good job. Thank you. 661 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:19,399 Speaker 2: Thanks. Eddie talked soon, called more often, Mike and Beverly. Mike, 662 00:37:19,480 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 2: we only got about a minute left, go right ahead, Yeah. 663 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 5: I did, couldn't Why Dan, Yeah, I thought this speecure 664 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 5: was great. I listen to something ycler Is like. I 665 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,399 Speaker 5: find him maze. But I think Trump did a great 666 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 5: job putting the graphs up, the showing people visually. I 667 00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 5: thought was a better job in the grass people, so 668 00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 5: people getting see what's going on when he's talking about. 669 00:37:40,920 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 2: My God, Mike, I gotta tell you, I missed that. 670 00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 2: I listened to it on radio because I know that's 671 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,760 Speaker 2: what my audience, So therefore I was not the beneficiary 672 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,399 Speaker 2: of any graphs or whatever. But uh, that will all 673 00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 2: come out in the polls tomorrow where people pleased his 674 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 2: poll numbers are down. I suspect they only will go 675 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,000 Speaker 2: up as a result of this speech. 676 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,520 Speaker 5: I don't think you're pulled up and down because people 677 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:09,440 Speaker 5: and don't And. 678 00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 2: I get it, Mike, whether you want to believe it, Mike, 679 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: whether you want to believe it or not, all polls 680 00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,359 Speaker 2: at this point are down. And I think that's one 681 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 2: of the reasons why he gave this speech tonight, and 682 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,359 Speaker 2: one of the reasons why it was scripted and Uh, 683 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 2: he was forced to stay on topic. Now, maybe he 684 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 2: hit too many topics. It wasn't a Ronald Reagan's speech, 685 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 2: which would have had some some stories and some anecdotes 686 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 2: and been much more folksy and and and a calmer presentation. 687 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 2: But it was Donald Trump tonight. It was Donald Trump. 688 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 2: I thought at his best that he could He could 689 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 2: not do a Ronald Reagan's speech. It was a Donald 690 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 2: Trump's speech. People can make it. I believe it will 691 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 2: help him in the polls. We'll see. 692 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,239 Speaker 5: Yes, I think you did a great job as a guest. Thing. 693 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,680 Speaker 5: Go you first.
