1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: It's Camp I Am sixty and you're listening to the 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:11,119 Speaker 1: Conway Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app Camp I Am. 3 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: It is the cow stefing the head with the headphones. 4 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,640 Speaker 1: It's been that kind of night, all right. Election results 5 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:27,440 Speaker 1: are coming in, and you know, a lot of people 6 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: are framing this as a rebuttal and a pushback on 7 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,279 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, and it's not. All These election results are 8 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 1: coming out of states that voted heavily for Kamala Harris, 9 00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: New Jersey, New York didn't. Virginia know, No, Virginia didn't. 10 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: Virginia did not go for. 11 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,320 Speaker 2: I don't know what the ultimate tally was, but they 12 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: didn't go heavily for our Kamala Harris. 13 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,200 Speaker 1: They didn't vote for Kamala's over don I. 14 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 2: Said, I don't know what the ultimate vote was. 15 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,280 Speaker 1: Let me check, let me see. I bet it's over 16 00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: three hundred thousand votes. I would I would bet my 17 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: life that it's over two hundred thousand votes. I think 18 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 1: that's a lot. She got fifty to Trump's forty six. 19 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: Oh well, what were the totals? So I bet it's 20 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:15,440 Speaker 1: over three hundred thousand. 21 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 2: He's got a death grip on that three hundred thousand. 22 00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: Sixty two hundred and sixty thousand votes, she had more 23 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 1: than him. Yeah, yeah, okay, all right, so I'll give. 24 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 2: You I'm going to give you that, by the way, 25 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:27,919 Speaker 2: two hundred sixty three hundred thousand. 26 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,759 Speaker 1: It's not a bad it's not zero, yeah, exactly. All right. 27 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: So Virginia, New Jersey, New York, California, these are all 28 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,200 Speaker 1: states that went for Kamala Harris. These are not big, 29 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,959 Speaker 1: you know, Republican states that are voting against Donald Trump. 30 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: They're just not They're just a bunch of people who 31 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: have been voting for Democrats their whole lives, continuing to 32 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: vote for Democrats. That's what's going on. So if you're 33 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: a conservative, you're a Republican, don't get down on these votes. 34 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: Is nothing new. Now, these are not states. These are 35 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: not swing states. These are not states that Donald Trump won. 36 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: These are states that the Democrats have won for a 37 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: long time and they continue to win. So it's not 38 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: a big deal. I mean, nothing to see here, Okay, Well, 39 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: I mean, is that not true? 40 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 2: No, I think that that's probably true. Well, I was 41 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 2: looking at other places where there might be elections that 42 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 2: are consequential, and you know, kind of Bellweathers. 43 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: Well in Virginia, the Democrat won beating the previous Republican right, 44 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: but they also the Democrats had almost what two hundred 45 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: and sixty thousand more votes for that idiot Kamala Harris. Yeah, 46 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: but Younkin, who is a Republican, won pretty decisively when 47 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: he won a Virginia right. But that goes back and forth. 48 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean that was you know, Virginia go with their 49 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, their local elections. They go back and forth. 50 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 1: But i it's nothing new. It's there's no you know, 51 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: don't let them freak you out that there is a 52 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,640 Speaker 1: trend in this country that is, you know, is going 53 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: way to the left. It's not happening. It's just not happening, 54 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: especially in swing states and the South. If you want 55 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: to really if you're a Republican, you really want to 56 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 1: enjoy yourself, move to the South and and leave all 57 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: the craziness behind. That's my solution. 58 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean those states have their own problems, you know, 59 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: I mean every state has problem. It's a different kind 60 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: of craziness exactly. 61 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's not. It's it's see we which state 62 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: you're talking about it? Right, But we have talked about 63 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: this with Michael Monks. If if Newsom became president, I 64 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 1: would be laughing at the rest of this country. I 65 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: would say, great, now you get to you get four 66 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: or eight years of the absolute s fest that we've 67 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: had to deal with him for four or was it 68 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 1: eight years he's been governor, and look what he's done. 69 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he's the state's a mess, you know. But 70 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: the homeless is worse now than when he started. The 71 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: crime is probably worse now than when he started. Gas 72 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: prices are higher now than when he started. The taxes 73 00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: are higher now than when he started. Uh, you know, 74 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: we shut the schools down for a year and a half, 75 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 1: where other states shut him down for two weeks. That's 76 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:30,280 Speaker 1: the first thing. 77 00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I think some of those things that you mentioned, 78 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 2: like gas prices, it said r I don't know that 79 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 2: he could the governor has any control over that. But 80 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: I do take your point about COVID, and you know, 81 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 2: COVID and COVID policies informed a lot of the election 82 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 2: results with the in the general. I mean, I think 83 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 2: it carried Trump and a lot of Republicans to victory. 84 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: You don't think that the governor has anything to do 85 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: with gas prices. 86 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 2: I don't think he has control over gas prices particularly 87 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 2: why what what is. 88 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: Okay, No, I'm asking let's flush out the issue. Yeah, 89 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: a lot of the refined is are breaking down and 90 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: leaving because they don't consider California a viable place to 91 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 1: do business. 92 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 2: Right, that's the California legislation, all the restrictions, that's the legislature. 93 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 2: And I'm saying a governor doesn't The governor doesn't have it. 94 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: He may be part of that machine. I'll accept. Yeah, 95 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: that the democratic machine controls California. I don't wouldn't dispute 96 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 2: that at all. In fact, I think it's a flaw. 97 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: But what I would say is that the governor doesn't 98 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: control gasoline prices in the same way the president doesn't 99 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: control gasoline prices. I mean, I always love that. You know, 100 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 2: when the price of the bump is down, the president, 101 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: whoever the president is, takes credit for it. When it 102 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,640 Speaker 2: goes up, it's like, oh that, you know, the president doesn't. 103 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: Have anything to do with it. And the truth is 104 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 1: the president really doesn't have anything. Okay, all right, let's 105 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,840 Speaker 1: I'll give you that that the government that the governor 106 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 1: in the state of California cannot single handedly reduce the 107 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: price of gasoline, then why is it so high in California. 108 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: Well, that's because of taxes and environmental blends that are 109 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 2: required in California. 110 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: And what parties push that. 111 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:01,039 Speaker 2: No, I've just told you that the democratic machine he 112 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 2: is part of is the reason you have to change 113 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: in the legislature. Absolutely, but you can't. Yeah, no, I 114 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 2: And I've also just. 115 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 1: Now they and now they with redistricting, it's gonna make 116 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,120 Speaker 1: it even tougher. 117 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,839 Speaker 2: Sure, this is a super majority in California, and the 118 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: same is true in places like Texas and other the 119 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: Republican states that are as bad. 120 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 1: On the other side, I mean it sucks. 121 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 2: I think it's the gerrymandering at redistricting is total crap 122 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: for Democrats or Republicans. It's not representative. It is a 123 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 2: It makes congressional representation a joke. You have states where 124 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 2: like Wisconsin, where you have it it's so heavily jerrymandered, 125 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 2: there's just no way that you can have a democratic legislature. 126 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 2: The same is true now in Texas and across many 127 00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 2: red states that have gone purple in terms of population, 128 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: and so in California, same thing. The communities that are 129 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 2: Republicans don't get appropriate representation. 130 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: I couldn't agree more Yeah, and now they're going to 131 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,480 Speaker 1: lose even more. So. You know, these guys live up 132 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 1: in eastern California, which is all Republican, and Northern California, 133 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 1: northeastern California. They're not gonna have a say in anything. 134 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 1: You know, they're not right. The representatives that they're going 135 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: to send to Washington will not be representing their lifestyles. 136 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:20,720 Speaker 2: The House is flawed in this way, and the the 137 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 2: idea of a of a jerrymandery, a redistricting that doesn't 138 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,520 Speaker 2: even follow the census. This is kind of a new 139 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: thing that was hatched by Trump and it's it's it's 140 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: inventive and it's aggressive, but it just takes a problem 141 00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 2: that we already have and it creates it as an 142 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,680 Speaker 2: even greater issue here sort of in the middle of 143 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: a decade. 144 00:07:40,560 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think if Newsome wins, I hope the rest 145 00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 1: of this country has to live in the absolute toilet 146 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 1: that we have had for the last eight years. 147 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 2: Again, the president is just one cog in that machine 148 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: in Washington. Now you've got now you've got a president 149 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 2: and a party in control. I don't know that. You know, 150 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 2: you know, you'll have you'll have that. If I don't 151 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 2: think this is going to win the presidency anyway. 152 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 1: If he does, I say to the rest of the nation, 153 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: welcome to s Yeah. 154 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: But again, the s you're talking about is a democratically 155 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: a super majority in Sacramento, which I don't think you 156 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: have in Washington. 157 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: Right. But that's a problem, man. But he's going to 158 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: bring his policies. You know that, the crazy thinking that 159 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: he's that is that has gotten him to the point 160 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,880 Speaker 1: where he gets elected president. He'll bring that craziness with 161 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: him to the White House. Yeah, I don't know guarantee. 162 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 2: I mean, there are all kinds of areas of crazy. 163 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 2: I agree there it seems like the crazy is pretty 164 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 2: much meet it out on both sides. 165 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: I understand that. But I have had to live under 166 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,680 Speaker 1: his craziness for eight years, right, I know. And and 167 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: so that's the only crazy decide. 168 00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 2: And I got it. And you know how I feel 169 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: about like the homeless industrial complex. We keep voting for 170 00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 2: these bond measures, we keep pouring money into it, and 171 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: it doesn't change anything. And I think that's even beyond 172 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: the governor. I mean, I think that is the problem 173 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 2: with the supermajority, and and and and we know what's happened, 174 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 2: but unemployment benefits. 175 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 1: But how do you change the supermajority? Yeah, I mean 176 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: this is an issue, But how would you change the supermajority? Right? 177 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,120 Speaker 1: How would you change it? Oh? 178 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 2: I don't know how you change it in California, I 179 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: really don't. 180 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 1: You'd have to by maybe not redistricting and drawing the 181 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: lines where we even lose more of the other party. 182 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: But on the national level, if you don't redistrict, you 183 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 2: completely turn Washington over to one party. And Democrats feel. 184 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: Okay, so we sacrifice our own house for the rest 185 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: of the nation. 186 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 2: Well, you're sacrificing your sacrificing your own house anyway if 187 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 2: you leave it over to the Republicans. Because of the 188 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 2: war on California. You know what's happening in Washington around California. 189 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: And so I don't know. I think there's a As 190 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: I've told you, I think it's it's really flawed. Redistrict 191 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: across the board is awful. So I couldn't agree with 192 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: you more. I think it's an issue. 193 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 1: It is amazing how much money it costs to live 194 00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 1: in California, And if he is not to blame, then 195 00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: who is to blame. 196 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 2: He's part of that blame, which is the super majority 197 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:21,359 Speaker 2: in Sacramento. 198 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: I agree. Have you had your by the way, I know, 199 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: we got to take a break.

I mean, 209 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: it really is getting tight. And I'm making pretty decent money. 210 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: Imagine if you're you know, you just squeaking by trying 211 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 1: to make it in the state with gas prices, the insurance. 212 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: How does some guy get by where he has one 213 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: child that his daughter's car insurance is eight thousand dollars 214 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: a year.

He's 337 00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: just hackling and he's happy to be relevant. But it 338 00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 1: does it's a that this guy is gonna win. He won, yeah, 339 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be governor of the City of New York. Yeah. 340 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 1: And he's promising a lot you know, uh, freezing rent, 341 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: you know, government run grocery stores. Yeah. 342 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 2: I mean he's uh, I think it's gonna be interesting 343 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 2: because some of the stuff that he wants to do, 344 00:18:20,040 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 2: he wants to subsidize. He's going to need to subsidize 345 00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 2: it with tax increases. And he can't do that without Shack, 346 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 2: without the Albany, you know, without the Capitol, without you know, 347 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:35,160 Speaker 2: you'll need buy in from the legislature to get that done. 348 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: But they say a lot of billionaires are going to 349 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,040 Speaker 1: leave New York City. I don't believe that. I don't either. 350 00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: I think if you're a New Yorker, you can't go 351 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,240 Speaker 1: anywhere else. You know, you need that energy that New 352 00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 1: York has. I mean, I never believe that when people 353 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: say they're going to leave. 354 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 2: I also think that those things are often said for 355 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 2: a reason, right, to sort of make it clear. 356 00:18:54,640 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: Hey, right, Yeah, the guy who was running Jay Jones, 357 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:06,120 Speaker 1: he's running for I think the attorney general in Virginia, 358 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: isn't that. He's the guy that sent text saying that 359 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,679 Speaker 1: he hope his appoint his opponent's wife, Jennifer Jennifer or 360 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 1: Gilbert's wife Jennifer would have to hold her dying children 361 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: to understand the parents whose children are killed by gun violence. 362 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:25,560 Speaker 1: And he also said if he had if he had 363 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 1: two bullets and he had to choose between killing his 364 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 1: opponent Adolf Hitler or Paul Pott. He would kill. He 365 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: would shoot Gilbert twice, and yet he won as a Democrat. 366 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: He said he would he In a conversation about his 367 00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: opponent's children, he said that. The conversation continued via phone, 368 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: during which Jones reportedly or repeatedly invoked the death of 369 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: Gilbert's children, suggesting that a tragedy might make the speaker 370 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: more amenable to gun control policies. And he won today 371 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: as a as a Democrat. I guess that's not disqualifying anything. 372 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 2: I mean, what's disqualifying now? Qualifying now? Political rhetoric is 373 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 2: so coarse, it's so it's so low rent. There is 374 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: nothing sacred. It is absolutely insane, the way all political 375 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 2: discourses changed. 376 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, but I don't remember children getting involved. I mean, 377 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: I don't remember him. I remember the last time a 378 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 1: politician threatened the children of the of his opponent. He 379 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: didn't threaten them, but well, okay, he suggested that he 380 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:40,360 Speaker 1: would like to see them die. 381 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 2: He said, he I think, I mean, based on what 382 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 2: you've just read, I'll read it. Yeah, go ahead. 383 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:51,680 Speaker 1: In The conversation continued via phone, during which Jones reportedly 384 00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:58,240 Speaker 1: repeatedly invoked the death of Gilbert's children, suggesting that such 385 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: a tragedy might make the speaker more minimal to gun 386 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 1: control policies, and then additional texts when when the guy 387 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: who he was texting expressed alarm, Jones doubled down on 388 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: the sentiment, writing, I hope Gilbert's wife Jennifer would have 389 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: to hold her dying children in her arms to understand 390 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: the pain of parents whose children were killed by gun violence. 391 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, certainly not a good thing to say. 392 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,800 Speaker 1: It's it's it's I don't know how you limbo under that. 393 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 1: I hope that's the lowest that ever goes. Well, what 394 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 1: am I saying? I hope that the lowest ever goes. 395 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:41,719 Speaker 1: They killed Charlie Kirk. You know who's they? The people 396 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 1: who are threatening other people in this world? Yeah, I agree, 397 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 1: the violent party of violence. 398 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 2: Is well, is there a party of violence? I think 399 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 2: you're telling me. I think they're radicalized people. So you 400 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 2: think the Democrats are a party of violence? You tell 401 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 2: me No, I'm telling you right now. I think that's 402 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: I think that's crazy. I think both I just read 403 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 2: you text. I think they're crazies on both sides. I 404 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 2: really do I don't. I mean, I think that that's 405 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 2: I think that there's no I really think that that 406 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 2: you know that there is extremism and radicalism. I can 407 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 2: think that we can both agree that there are crazies 408 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 2: on both sides. 409 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 1: I think there are crazies on both sides. But it 410 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,159 Speaker 1: does seem that a lot of the recent violence is 411 00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: coming from one of the two parties. 412 00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 2: You thought that the well, I don't want to get 413 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: into this with you because I just seem like, you know, 414 00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 2: you talk about the planned kidnapping of a governor of 415 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: a state of Michigan. They went to the ex state 416 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 2: House with arms. You talk about the the I think 417 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:48,400 Speaker 2: there's any number of crazies on. 418 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: Both sides, like Trump getting shot. Yeah, exactly, Trump getting shot. 419 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 1: I agree. 420 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think I think there's any room 421 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 2: for political violence at all on either side. But I 422 00:22:57,359 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: don't think that there it's being espoused in any kind 423 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:01,400 Speaker 2: of mainstream way. 424 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 1: Right, I just find party or another, okay, But I 425 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: don't I find the this These comments about the opponent's children, 426 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: the mother having to hold dead children astonishingly low and 427 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 1: that's not disqualifying. It wasn't disqualifying for me, he's going 428 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:22,600 Speaker 1: to win that. I don't know where we are in 429 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 1: this country. 430 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,120 Speaker 2: I mean, the discourse that comes out of the White 431 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:28,120 Speaker 2: House is a new low as well, you know. 432 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 1: Okay, well it's not holding your dying children, you know. 433 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: I mean, we're now involving the opponent's children. I think 434 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 1: I get a new low. 435 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 2: I get that this that this this comment got to you. 436 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 1: The it does get to me. 437 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I know, and I and I and I 438 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 2: understand why. I mean, I think that in the context, 439 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to justify it at all. But what 440 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,720 Speaker 2: started it was this gun violence which he was speaking about, 441 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 2: I guess. I mean, I'm learning more about it from 442 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 2: your reading of the quote than what I knew before. 443 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 2: I knew that he'd made controversial remarks, but he was 444 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 2: talking about it in the context of gun violence, that 445 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 2: the nature of gun violence is so profoundly awful that 446 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 2: the only way to in any way communicate the import 447 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 2: is if somebody actually experiences it. I guess that's what 448 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: he's getting at. 449 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: But I'm not. 450 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 2: Justifying that or saying that he said it well or 451 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,160 Speaker 2: said it he shouldn't have said it at all. 452 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 1: But that's the context in which it existed. It's amazing 453 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,920 Speaker 1: that a guy running brought that up. All right, we 454 00:24:30,960 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 1: got to take great all rights. Conway Thompson Relive on 455 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:36,120 Speaker 1: KFI KFI AM six Ford. It's Conway from Mark Thompson's 456 00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: here and and Thompson. I might have some arguments over politics, 457 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 1: but I love this man. I would say, out of 458 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 1: all the friends that I've met after my post childhood friends, 459 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 1: I would say, probably closest to you. 460 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 2: That's really sweet. And I feel you are so much 461 00:24:57,920 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 2: in my head all the time. You are the brother 462 00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 2: that i'd never had. 463 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 1: I feel the same way. And I listened to your 464 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: show often, and I got to give you props. There 465 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 1: are some people in radio on this station and do 466 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: a podcast that will change their opinions on important topics 467 00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: during commercial breaks that drive me crazy. And you never 468 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:22,479 Speaker 1: do that. Oh. 469 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,640 Speaker 2: I mean like they'll see something or someone will say 470 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,320 Speaker 2: something during the commercial and then they'll change. 471 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you a story about somebody who 472 00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: doesn't work here anymore. Okay, that's a good idea, Okay, Yeah. 473 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 1: And I was listening to him one day and he 474 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: said that women should have the right to abort their 475 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:44,959 Speaker 1: fetus up until they give birth, which you know, it's 476 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: an extreme which fifteen twenty years ago was really really extreme. Yeah, 477 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: that's well, no, it's still extreme, right because you could 478 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: have been convicted of murder for that. Sure, Like you, 479 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: if you're eight months pregnant and you take a knife 480 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: and you try and you ab your you know, your 481 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: feetus to death, you could be thrown in jail for 482 00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 1: murder for that. So that was a very extreme position. 483 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: Then the commercial break happened. Then he came back and 484 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 1: he said, you know, I was raised around a lot 485 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: of Catholics who think that conception is where life begins. 486 00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 1: And he said, I'm open to that. Wow, that's quite 487 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 1: a pivot. He was the ying and the yang. He 488 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:34,040 Speaker 1: was the ding and the dog of abortion. I don't 489 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: think anyone's ever said that before he was. His opinions 490 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:40,679 Speaker 1: were the ding and the dog of abortion. 491 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 4: You don't hear it a lot, but I one of 492 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 4: the reasons why I don't like to do politics because 493 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 4: it drives me so crazy that that I I don't 494 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 4: want to be one of those guys that ever says 495 00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 4: I'm not calling this guy because he's a Democrat, or 496 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 4: I'm not calling this guy because he's too far right 497 00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 4: or too far left. 498 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:07,360 Speaker 1: Bye.
