1 00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:05,280 Speaker 1: It's night time with Dan Ray. I'm telling you Boston's 2 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:06,000 Speaker 1: Lee Radio. 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,520 Speaker 2: We are talking about the election results around the country. 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,760 Speaker 2: We still have to get the election results for you 5 00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:16,480 Speaker 2: from Boston, which I think is important. We know that 6 00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:21,120 Speaker 2: Michelle wou was running in effect well running unopposed. Tonight, 7 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 2: it appears that with where we got third of the 8 00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,160 Speaker 2: vote counted, she's got ninety percent. There were twenty two 9 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 2: hundred writing votes so far twenty she has only twenty 10 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,639 Speaker 2: two thousand. It's going to be a really low voter 11 00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 2: turnout in Boston amongst the city councilors at large. If 12 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,960 Speaker 2: you're interested in that, it looks as if erin Murphy 13 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 2: my top the ticket. That's an interesting development. Ruzie Louis 14 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: Louis June is a second, Julia Mahea is third, Henry 15 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 2: Santana fourth. They would be the four at large members 16 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,559 Speaker 2: unless Frank Baker can close a twenty vote gap here. 17 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,600 Speaker 2: He's the only one who seems to have a chance 18 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,319 Speaker 2: to break into the top four, but as some time 19 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: goes on, he's going to run out of places to 20 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: pick up vote. So we'll keep you in touch in Boston. 21 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: No surprises amongst the incumbent demo the incumbent city councilors, 22 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,200 Speaker 2: and in the in the race to succeed Tanya Fernandez. 23 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,199 Speaker 2: It is a kind of close race at this point. 24 00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: We'll hold off on that one between Reverend Miniyard Culpeper 25 00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:39,919 Speaker 2: and Sayid coach Ahmed. That's it's it's still too close 26 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: to call. So anyway, let's get back to we were 27 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,759 Speaker 2: going to finish up with Tom from Medway. Didn't want 28 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 2: to short change him.

The economy has been horrible, seems 32 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,440 Speaker 3: to be getting worse. I don't know how anybody, you know, seriously, 33 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 3: I don't know how anybody could be thinking about voting 34 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 3: for a Republican when it's become clear that they're going 35 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,920 Speaker 3: to do exactly as Trump tells them to do. 36 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 2: Well, let me let me ask you a couple of questions.

He can't 110 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 5: afford it. 111 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: You know, Well, we're going in different grocery stores. I 112 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 2: think I go to market basket. And what the reason 113 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 2: I asked Tom about the price of gasoline? What are 114 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: you paying for gas? 115 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 7: Now? 116 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 2: Greg?

No, okay, never. 118 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 2: You know, Okay, well that's good you're not driving that 119 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 2: gas prices are down to abound three dollars. Okay, those 120 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,800 Speaker 2: are very important. Uh, it's a very important price of gas. 121 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 2: You can talk to me, talk to me about the 122 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 2: price of this or the price of that, but gasoline, 123 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 2: whether it's diesel or whatever, that's what runs the economy. 124 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 2: And so everything that you and I buy in a 125 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 2: store gets transported there by a truck. 126 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 6: Uh. 127 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,240 Speaker 2: And so gas prices are down. That's a good thing. 128 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,480 Speaker 2: There's no roaring inflation at this point. Inflation under Biden 129 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 2: was way up. Uh. When when Trump went into office, 130 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 2: they were saying, well, the price of eggs are incredible 131 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: and well, and they were the price of eggs are 132 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,359 Speaker 2: now coming back down in the right direction. So you know, 133 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: again you have to be careful. And there's there's a 134 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 2: bunch of things, Greg that I'm not buying in stores. 135 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: I used to love Pepperidge Farm, Chocolate. 136 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,279 Speaker 5: Chica, the Mac Basket to Davas's and then mew and 137 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,839 Speaker 5: in the store and they can afford share, they pay 138 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 5: their their their help away little more, little way more 139 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 5: than that stop shop and the sour markets of the places. 140 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 2: Well again, I hope market Basket doesn't change with the 141 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 2: with the shift away from mister Dels.

The biggest story is going 176 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 7: to be California with they're gonna go forth sev yes 177 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 7: on redistrict and that's and that's gonna be the story 178 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 7: of tonight. 179 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 2: Well, those polls are just closing out there, so maybe 180 00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: we'll get a little result on that. I don't know 181 00:08:56,320 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 2: what the I got to look up the California aggressional delegation. 182 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 2: That's a pretty gerrymandard state right now. And if you 183 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 2: if you move you know, communities that are Democratic into 184 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 2: some district and you're going to pick up a Democratic seat, 185 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 2: you might then have the other other reaction it's awfully 186 00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:27,839 Speaker 2: tough to to do it successfully. Let me put it 187 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,599 Speaker 2: like that. You know, there's it's not as if you 188 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 2: can create voters. You have to take a town which 189 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 2: is overwhelmingly Democratic, moving into a state that is a 190 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,079 Speaker 2: type Republican district, but then you've moved some voters out 191 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 2: of a different state, different state. There are there are 192 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:51,079 Speaker 2: forty three Democrats and nine Republicans in the House, so 193 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 2: the most seats the Democrats can pick up are nine. 194 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 2: And it's probably when you realize that in California it's 195 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:03,840 Speaker 2: a forty three to nine split. That means that's that's 196 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 2: the Democrats already control eighty percent of the seats. 197 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 6: Yep. 198 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: You know, I don't know that they can that they 199 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 2: that they have the numbers to do much more. That 200 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 2: they've done a real good job. Jerremandy California already. 201 00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 7: Well I'm gonna say this, Stan, it shouldn't be done 202 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 7: at all. You're right, go by it should go by 203 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 7: the sense of every ten years, and that's how it 204 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 7: should go. 205 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 8: Trump. 206 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 7: But Trump's out of this. He did it in Texas. 207 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 7: Gavin Newsom said, we gotta fight fire with fire, and 208 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 7: that's why I'm doing it. 209 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: Well, that's fine. Again, Texas has been an overwhelmingly Republican state. 210 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 2: They have the same problem. They might think that they're 211 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 2: going to pick up states, they might diss seats. Again, 212 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 2: what I'm saying is, you have so many voters that 213 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 2: tend to be Democratic and so many tend to be Republican. 214 00:10:53,760 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 2: In a fear state, you should have a representation of 215 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,839 Speaker 2: some sort. We're pretty gerry mandard in Massachusetts when you 216 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 2: think about it. Have you looked at our districts in Massachusetts. 217 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 7: I would imagine outside of the four ninety five card 218 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 7: of if you get on the mass Spike and I've 219 00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 7: been out in that area, and I believe most of 220 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 7: that area is Republican. But it's a population and I 221 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 7: could be wrong. That's my opinion from what I've seen. 222 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 7: So I think that's where you have your Republicans is 223 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 7: out there. 224 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 5: Am I not right? 225 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 6: No? 226 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,720 Speaker 2: You have Republicans in the center of the state, Worcester 227 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: County and also down on the Cape, and we have 228 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 2: we have nine House seats. They're all Democrats. And that's 229 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 2: it is. 230 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 8: It is Massachusetts and under saying that, but but it's 231 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 8: not as if if if if let us say, right, now, 232 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 8: in Massachusetts, the Democrats, I think of about thirty two 233 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:07,679 Speaker 8: percent registered Democratic, there's about eight or so percent that 234 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,680 Speaker 8: are that are registered Republican. 235 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 2: And then there's a large swath of independent voters, people 236 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:15,600 Speaker 2: who are not either. 237 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 7: New Hampshire as well. 238 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well New Hampshire. New Hampshire is a tougher 239 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 2: state to Jerryman because there's only two districts. 240 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 9: No, you can't know. 241 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 7: I'm talking about more people registered as independent than Republican Democrats. 242 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, and again, over time we'll say and if if 243 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 2: any party, whether it's Republicans in Texas or Democrats in California, 244 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:44,439 Speaker 2: abuse the process and people understand that they're playing games 245 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 2: that can go back to haunt the Republicans in Texas 246 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 2: and the Democrats in California. 247 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:52,719 Speaker 7: Ironically, well no, because the Democrats wouldn't have done it 248 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 7: if Trump didn't start it. Dan, I'm saying that's the fact. 249 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 2: What I'm saying to you is that whoever does it, Okay, 250 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 2: two wrongs don't make a right. You and I both 251 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 2: know that our mothers told us that. All I'm saying 252 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: is that if you understand what I'm saying, if you 253 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: have your voters in the state and you start to 254 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: move some of your voters into another district to pick 255 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 2: up that district because your voters. You then have moved 256 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,959 Speaker 2: some of your voters out of a district, and if 257 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 2: you don't do it properly, it can backfire, is what 258 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 2: I'm trying to say to you. That's all I'm trying about. 259 00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 7: I totally agree, Dan, I'm just saying that's going to 260 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,599 Speaker 7: be the big story of the night, I think. And 261 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 7: one other thing I'd like to say. You mentioned the 262 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 7: short attention span of the public, which is true, and 263 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 7: I said this back in January. I've been saying it 264 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 7: all along. I'm saying Trump is going to let things 265 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 7: bottom out this year. He's going to blame it all 266 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 7: on Biden and the Democrats, and then things will get 267 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 7: a little better next year. I mean, when I went 268 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 7: to the store today my Thanksgiving turkey, sixteen pound butter ball, 269 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 7: it was ninety one bucks. 270 00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 3: You know. 271 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 7: That's and that was at the market basket up here. 272 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 2: So you're paying okay, I was just trying to understand. 273 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 2: So you're paying about five dollars a pound? 274 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 5: Is that? 275 00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,599 Speaker 2: Is that how the math would work out there? Or 276 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 2: six five and a half dollars a pound. 277 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 7: Oh I'm terrible at math. 278 00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, Well, what would have you paid a year 279 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: ago for the same turkey? Is what I'm asking here, 280 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 2: because I don't It. 281 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,480 Speaker 7: Was sixty bucks, So it's thirty bucks more than I 282 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 7: paid last year. 283 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:37,120 Speaker 2: Well again, those those those issues will have an impact. Again. 284 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 2: I take what you tell me as being exactly true. 285 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: I don't imagine you're trying to mislead me. 286 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 5: I believe what you tell me. 287 00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 2: But what I can tell you is that there was 288 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 2: gas prices.

This 512 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:20,639 Speaker 2: gentleman from New Jersey whose whose name is uh Ciderelli. 513 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 2: I actually he actually got less votes uh this this 514 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 2: time than he did four years ago. I just think 515 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 2: that the Republicans this, if this is not a very 516 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 2: clear wake up call to the Republicans, then they are 517 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,159 Speaker 2: that they're they're missing the bells. Let's go to phones, 518 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 2: going to go to Connor and hang them. I'm sorry, folks, 519 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 2: I have I've tarried too long with some of my listeners. 520 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 2: Go right up from my corner's corner. You're next nights, 521 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 2: I go right ahead, A. 522 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 12: Hi, Dan. 523 00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 10: So obviously, the former Vice President Dick Cheney passed away today, 524 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 10: and you know, I think the guy was a real patriot, 525 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:02,480 Speaker 10: really loved his country. I mean, there's a lot of 526 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,119 Speaker 10: very very complicated choices he had to make, and you know, 527 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 10: unusual circumstances. But regardless of all that, I was wondering 528 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 10: what your take is on Donald Trump neglecting to make 529 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 10: any comments about his passing. 530 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 4: And you know, he even like went out of his 531 00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 4: way to. 532 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 10: State that they were only lowering the flags because it 533 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:30,360 Speaker 10: was US policy. 534 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I think there's some bad blood there. 535 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: I was not a fan of Cheney, I will tell 536 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:42,520 Speaker 2: you that honestly. I think that that he was somebody 537 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: who was inaccessible to the media. I had one experience 538 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 2: with him in New Hampshire in ninety six, which was 539 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 2: not pleasant. I think that he was he was not 540 00:27:55,920 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 2: somebody who you know, I like people, whether they Democrats 541 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 2: or Republicans. There were a lot of Democrats and Republicans 542 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 2: who I might disagree with, but I always thought about, well, 543 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 2: how do I feel about that person politically and when 544 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 2: I was covering them as a reporter, and how do 545 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:17,880 Speaker 2: I feel about them personally? So there were people who 546 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 2: I disagreed with pers politically, but when I met them, 547 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 2: they were charming, and it made it easier to be 548 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 2: fear as a reporter to someone if you at least 549 00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 2: like them personally. Cheney was someone who toyed with the 550 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 2: idea of running for president in nineteen ninety six, and 551 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 2: he was at an event in New Hampshire and we 552 00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: just wanted to get him for like a minute or two, 553 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 2: just to ask him a couple of brief questions as 554 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 2: we do with all of these candidates when they go 555 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:54,240 Speaker 2: through New Hampshire. And I mean, he was just arrogant. 556 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 2: Now I am not happy to see him pass. I 557 00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 2: feel badly for his family, but he was He was 558 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 2: a Darth Vader sort of character. I don't know what 559 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 2: made him tick. To be really honest with you, I've 560 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 2: had Don Rumsfeld on my show who was a charming guy, 561 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 2: and he apparently was a close friend to Chaney, but 562 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 2: they were The vibe I got from Channey was a 563 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 2: very different different than I got from Don Rumsfeld, although 564 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 2: I think that they both philosophically were joined at the hip. 565 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 2: And therefore I think that President Trump makes he diminishes 566 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:35,280 Speaker 2: his stature by not saying, look, we lost an American 567 00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 2: who happened to be a member of the same party 568 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 2: that I was. But but I disagreed with him, but 569 00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 2: his service to the country needs to be honored. That's 570 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 2: I agree with you totally on that. But I will 571 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 2: also add that I think Cheney kind of came across 572 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 2: as a grumpy old person when he was in his 573 00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 2: thirties and chief of staff of the White House. 574 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 10: Right, Yeah, No, I I completely understand that. I think 575 00:30:02,320 --> 00:30:05,000 Speaker 10: he did kind of like to lean into that caricature 576 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 10: of himself. But you know, I have some very liberal friends, 577 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 10: you know today who are talking about how he's like 578 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 10: a sociopathic, blood thirsty, warmongerer, et cetera, all that kind 579 00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:22,280 Speaker 10: of stuff, And I'm wondering, you know, outside of the 580 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 10: you know, personal like finding him not a personable guy 581 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 10: and just kind of arrogant, you don't think he was 582 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 10: actually like twistedly corrupt in evil like some people make 583 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 10: him out. 584 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 2: No, I don't know. I don't. I think he made 585 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: and and I think that he made a lot of 586 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 2: the policy in the administration of Bush forty three. And 587 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 2: a lot of those policy mistakes might have been things 588 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,440 Speaker 2: that I would have approved of at the time, but 589 00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: they turned out to be a tactical errors. We we 590 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 2: fought the war on Terror, we spent twenty years, and 591 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 2: we ended up with the ridiculous withdrawal, and everybody who 592 00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: had their fingerprints on that, Republicans and Democrats alike, you know, 593 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 2: they didn't make right They didn't make effective decisions, is 594 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 2: all I'm saying. And whether they were blinded by hatred 595 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 2: for what had happened, I get that. I'm not saying 596 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 2: that I would have done anything different. But in look, 597 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 2: I looked back World War Two. It took this country 598 00:31:28,440 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 2: a little more than three and a half years to 599 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 2: finish World War Two, to fight in Europe, to fight 600 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 2: in Africa, and to fight in China, Bournman, India after 601 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 2: having been devastated by Pearl Harbor. It took us twenty 602 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 2: years to extricate ourselves from the Middle East, and a 603 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 2: lot of good people lost their lives along the way. 604 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 2: And it wasn't the military that failed us. It was 605 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,000 Speaker 2: the politicians, Democrats and Republicans who failed us. 606 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I mean, I definitely understand that. 607 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 10: I think when you're not going up against nation states, though, 608 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:07,600 Speaker 10: when you're going up against these insurgent groups that you know, 609 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 10: they what was the phrase that the Taliban or maybe 610 00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 10: Al Kaid would say, like they have the clocks, we 611 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 10: have the time, as in, you know, whatever technological advance 612 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 10: the well. 613 00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,240 Speaker 2: The Taliban can retreat into the hills and we couldn't 614 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 2: find them. And yeah, well, again, I'm not here to 615 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 2: diminish Dick Cheney or to diminish his his contribution to 616 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 2: the country. 617 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 8: But I. 618 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 2: And I think Donald Trump made a mistake today. I 619 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 2: agree with you. But at the same time, Janney was 620 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 2: not a character and it's had nothing to do with 621 00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,560 Speaker 2: his party. In my opinion, it had everything to do 622 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 2: with his own demeanor. 623 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 3: Uh. 624 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 2: You know, Jimmy Carter was a failed president, but he 625 00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 2: was beloved for what he did post presidency. And you know, yeah, 626 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 2: so that's all. Thank you for raising is an issue 627 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 2: because it's an important issue to raise on a day 628 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,960 Speaker 2: of many important issues.
