1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,680
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast.

3
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 2: Second hour of Clay and Buck starts right now. And

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 2: the campus protest. Let's take a look at the latest

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 2: with hoes the Biden base out on college campuses, and

6
00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,919
Speaker 2: this is still ongoing. There are now, I think a

7
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:28,000
Speaker 2: lot of people who are wondering, will they try to

8
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 2: disrupt graduation ceremony even if they have been cleared out? Also,

9
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,559
Speaker 2: will they do anything at the Chicago DNC, the Democratic

10
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 2: National Convention, which will be this summer. Certainly possible and

11
00:00:41,400 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 2: that would harken back to sixty eight and I think.

12
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: That would be a bad.

13
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,480
Speaker 2: Look for the Democrats, but who knows. And then there's

14
00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 2: some other feelings Clay that I wanted to get into here,

15
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: or some sense of what's happening from those who were

16
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: watching this whole thing playff. First of all, as I mentioned,

17
00:00:58,200 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 2: the situation with the Israel Hamas war, is Israel is

18
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: poised to go into Rafa and it's the last bast

19
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 2: in the last holdout area of Hamas in the very

20
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 2: southern portion of Gaza, and there's concern. Now I think

21
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: there are negotiations that are happening, and there's a lot

22
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,760
Speaker 2: of politics about this. Keep in mind, Hamas could have

23
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,840
Speaker 2: ended this a long time ago. Amas could have stopped

24
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,320
Speaker 2: all of this. Hamas chooses not to stop it. Hamas

25
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: still has hostages. There are many questions for a tragic

26
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,120
Speaker 2: how many of those hostages, including there are some Americans

27
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 2: held hostage, are still alive. I think we're going to

28
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: find that the answer to that is tragically far lower

29
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: than would be expected if Hamas was not run by barbarous, violent.

30
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 1: Thugs, which it is.

31
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 2: And so that's all ongoing in the background the Biden administration.

32
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: There's now back and forth over they delayed this arm

33
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 2: shipment to the Israelis intentionally or not. It certainly looked

34
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 2: like some kind of a win for the protesters. Okay,

35
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 2: now we'll get to the other part of this, which

36
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: is that there are a lot of as much as

37
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 2: we focus on the crazy Bolsheviks of higher education, and

38
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 2: there's a lot of that going on. You know, there's

39
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,960
Speaker 2: an Axios poll Cleut that just came out that had

40
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 2: the following numbers, and I think it's a reminder that

41
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,360
Speaker 2: while there's far too much craziness on the campus and

42
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 2: the professors are overwhelmingly nuts.

43
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 3: Not all.

44
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,679
Speaker 2: There's some great conservative professors, and there's some great campuses

45
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: with nothing but conservative professors, right, I mean, Clay, you've

46
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: spoke to Hillsdale recently. But the overwhelming majority of professors,

47
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 2: certainly in the liberal arts, are nuts and and go

48
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 2: along with this stuff and are a part of you know,

49
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: BLM and pro hamas Er, you know, down with Israel

50
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 2: and all this, all this stuff, all the stuff that

51
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 2: goes together, climate change, all this Trump is going to

52
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 2: destroy the world.

53
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 4: World.

54
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 2: But there are a lot of normal people on campus still,

55
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 2: or at least more normal. Sixty seven percent, according to

56
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 2: the Saxio's poll, say occupying campus buildings is unacceptable. Ninety

57
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: percent say blocking pro Israel students from parts of campus

58
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:22,239
Speaker 2: is unacceptable fifty eight percent majority. But I think it

59
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 2: should be bigger, say refusing a university's order to disperse

60
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 2: is unacceptable. That number should be higher. But when you

61
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 2: have almost seventy percent recognizing that the occupation of buildings

62
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 2: is just you can't do that, and ninety percent saying

63
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 2: you can't tell Jewish students you're not welcome in this

64
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,200
Speaker 2: part of campus, how about ten percent of people are

65
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 2: okay with telling Jewish students you're not welcome in this

66
00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: part of campus. That actually seems a little bit alarming

67
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: to me. And one hundred percent of them are voting Democrats.

68
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: Just see, I mean this is.

69
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 4: This is entirely I mean that's like ninety percent is good.

70
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:59,280
Speaker 4: But like restricting anybody based on their ethnicity, or their

71
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 4: gender or their sexuality to be able to walk through campus,

72
00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 4: that's a little bit ominous to me, and I think

73
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 4: speaks to that ten percent base that's out there that's

74
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 4: doing this.

75
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: But some of that is encouraging, as you're laying out.

76
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,360
Speaker 1: So this is.

77
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 2: Mario Torres speaking. He is a custodian at janitor. I mean,

78
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,240
Speaker 2: I think janitor is an entirely honorable profession. I don't

79
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 2: know why we have to play custodian. Jenner is the

80
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 2: same thing. Janitor as every bit as honorable profession as custodian,

81
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 2: et cetera. But fine, I'll use the term custodian just

82
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 2: you know, I think it's a little unnecessary. But the

83
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,279
Speaker 2: Columbia University custodian Mario Torres saying that the school should

84
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 2: have done more to protect them, and that the school

85
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 2: really Columbia University was kind of asleep at the wheel

86
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: for this whole thing.

87
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: Play one.

88
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 3: Is Columbia going to retaliate and find a recent to

89
00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 3: fire me? Is someone going to come after me?

90
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 5: We are taking a big risk, you know, doing this.

91
00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 3: But I think that I think that they failed, They

92
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 3: failed us, and I think that's that's that's the bigger story.

93
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 1: They failed us.

94
00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 5: They should have done more to protect us, and they

95
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 5: did it.

96
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: They absolutely didn't Clay.

97
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 2: There are people in this process who have been treated

98
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 2: as this is unfolded really badly, and there's all this

99
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:22,000
Speaker 2: concern of, oh, well, what about are we being too

100
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: harsh with the protesters? And you know, what about the

101
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 2: people who have been you know, under lunatic threat from

102
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: the occupations that are happening, or the people that wanted

103
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 2: to just go to class and they've paid money to

104
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 2: be there and they want to have a normal experience

105
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 2: at the end of their school year. Like there are

106
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 2: a lot of victims here, the protesters are not victims.

107
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,720
Speaker 2: They've created this whole thing themselves.

108
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 1: And really there seems to be this idea.

109
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 4: I'm sure you saw that UCLA has gone remote all

110
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 4: week because people aren't able to move around on campus

111
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,480
Speaker 4: freely and safely. GW, which is where I went in Washington,

112
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 4: d C, has been begging for the Metro police in

113
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 4: d C to come and clean up the protesters, but

114
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 4: the mayor of DC, Muriel Bowser, will not allow it

115
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:14,880
Speaker 4: to occur.

116
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,880
Speaker 1: All of this is chaotic.

117
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,479
Speaker 4: The question is at this point, I think will it

118
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 4: occur around the Democrat National Convention in August in Chicago?

119
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 4: Because if it does, and I think you said, you're

120
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 4: you're not optimistic or maybe optimistic or a word, but

121
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 4: you're you're not of the belief that it will because

122
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 4: you think Democrats altern it.

123
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: Can I tell you why I think that is? Yeah,

124
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 2: because I think that these are these are useful idiots.

125
00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,159
Speaker 2: And remember there's many tiers, as many layers here. You

126
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 2: have the useful idiots who are you know, a junior

127
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:57,359
Speaker 2: at Columbia or you know, a senior at GW or whatever,

128
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,679
Speaker 2: and they actually believe this has.

129
00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:02,239
Speaker 1: Some merit and they're the good guys here.

130
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,359
Speaker 2: But there's also the professional agitators and protesters who have

131
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 2: been in the mix. We know this because they've been arrested.

132
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,560
Speaker 2: We have their mugshots and they're like, you know, they're

133
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 2: in their fifties. They're like retirees who are showing up

134
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 2: to protest this. I mean, it's clear they're not undergrads.

135
00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 2: And what you have, I think is going to be

136
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 2: the Soros funded left is going to recognize that trying

137
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:34,680
Speaker 2: to foment these protests at the DNC is problematic, is

138
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 2: not helping the cause ultimately, because Biden will either either

139
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,000
Speaker 2: give them the policies they want or bend the knee

140
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 2: if enough pressure is on him to be a leftist,

141
00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,760
Speaker 2: so they want him to be president. They do not

142
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 2: want Donald Trump to be president. So that's what they

143
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 2: show up at Milwaukee. Where will be that might, yes,

144
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 2: that I could see for sure, but I mean I

145
00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 2: assume that Trump it's tough to gauge. Like obviously they'll

146
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: be lunatics protesting Trump all over the place. I don't

147
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 2: know if it'll be enough to make a mess, and

148
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,920
Speaker 2: actually it'll be a bad look. I think it'll be

149
00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 2: a bad look for them if it gets out of

150
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: hand and if they're just standing there with here's the thing,

151
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,080
Speaker 2: the reason they do all this childish nonsense with the

152
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 2: encampments and the occupying buildings, and we refuse to leave

153
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 2: and all. This is because if they were just standing

154
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 2: around channing slogans, nobody cares. You're a bunch of imbeciles.

155
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 2: You're not convincing anyone of anything. So that's why they

156
00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:29,720
Speaker 2: do these things. It's like lying down in the street

157
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:31,720
Speaker 2: to make you, you know, three hours late for work because

158
00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 2: the highways blocked. Like these people have no good arguments,

159
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 2: so they inflict themselves upon the normal people.

160
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,400
Speaker 4: I wonder if they're able to turn this off. They

161
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 4: dialed up the crazy to such an extent. I think

162
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 4: what they want to do is jump this energy into

163
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,760
Speaker 4: BLWM again. I think if you could go into their

164
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 4: sort of hive mind, what they're hoping for is the

165
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 4: energy that they've unlocked with the Hamas protests and the

166
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,840
Speaker 4: anti Israel protest. They hope to be able to combine

167
00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 4: it with something BLM related because the BLM protests are

168
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,320
Speaker 4: super positive for them. Now here's the challenge in general

169
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 4: with protests, when you're in all of the positions of power,

170
00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 4: how does that play with independent voters? Because it's one

171
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 4: thing when you can kind of drag it around as

172
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,959
Speaker 4: a weight on Donald Trump in twenty twenty oh, Look,

173
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 4: the country's falling apart. This is all Donald Trump's fault

174
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,120
Speaker 4: when you're in basically control of the entire government. I know,

175
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,360
Speaker 4: we got a two or three seat majority in the House,

176
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 4: Republicans do, but basically you've got Democrats in the Senate.

177
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,559
Speaker 4: You've got complete control in the White House. Right now,

178
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 4: Does it work against Joe Biden if there's any kind

179
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:00,680
Speaker 4: of unrest, even if it's motivated like BLM was by

180
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 4: the George Floyd related incident, I don't know how that

181
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 4: plays if you're in the White House.

182
00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, it depends on what the issue is and how

183
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 2: they're going about it. Remember, uh, while all the BLM

184
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 2: BLM two point zero stuff was happening, obviously Trump was president,

185
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,760
Speaker 2: and so there was this implicit Oh, the the racist

186
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 2: Donald Trump president is in office. And so that's why

187
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 2: one cop put a knee on the shoulder of you know,

188
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 2: like it's Trump's fault somehow. What happened in Minnesota with

189
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 2: with one cop actually was, you know, unfortunately they threw

190
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 2: the other cop in prison to the one who's just there.

191
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it was it was total injustice.

192
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,240
Speaker 2: By the way, these officers, none of them wanted to

193
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:48,719
Speaker 2: hurt anybody Uh, the idea that they should that one

194
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 2: what's his name got like Chauvin got like twenty years

195
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 2: or something.

196
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's it.

197
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 2: They were absolutely just handed over to the mob. It

198
00:10:56,800 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: was wrong. It was mob justice. And now I think

199
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 2: I think we're allowed to actually finally talk about what's

200
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 2: gone on there. Maybe that's been the case for a while,

201
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:10,439
Speaker 2: but Clay, I think that it even if they mobilize

202
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 2: and Biden is in power, the problem is the people

203
00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 2: who do not go along with Biden, right, Biden would

204
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,080
Speaker 2: get so much more done. Biden would have achieved so

205
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 2: much more for the black community, let's say, in America

206
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 2: under his tenure. Now, the black community I think knows

207
00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: this is not true, but the narrative would be Biden

208
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 2: would have achieved so much if only the Trump Republicans

209
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 2: weren't standing in his way. So anything that they protest

210
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:45,319
Speaker 2: is our fault somehow. On the Israel issue, it's a

211
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,480
Speaker 2: little bit more bipartisan, but generally speaking, they always have

212
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 2: a way to say that is the fault of the

213
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 2: other side, even when they're in power, because we should

214
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 2: just go along with everything they want. If we went

215
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:57,520
Speaker 2: along with everything they want, then there wouldn't be these problems, right.

216
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 2: But Biden, to the earlier point I made, he is

217
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,960
Speaker 2: losing support among particularly young blackmail voters. And if Biden

218
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 2: does not get ninety percent plus of the black vote,

219
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,439
Speaker 2: it's all Overah, no way he wins. So I think

220
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 2: that's I think there are encouraging signs that the usual

221
00:12:14,920 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: Democrat playbook of lies will not res and again, encouraging signs.

222
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 2: I know who knows what's going to happen, but I

223
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 2: do see some reason for optimism.

224
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:25,400
Speaker 1: Look at that Clay.

225
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,760
Speaker 2: I'm optimistic. Although the Boy Scouts did just change their name.

226
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 2: Have you seen this, Yes, I saw that story.

227
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,280
Speaker 4: I mean you saying that you thought there was a

228
00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,240
Speaker 4: possibility for a not guilty verdict for Trump is maybe

229
00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 4: the most optimistic thing I've heard you say in months.

230
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 2: I said ten percent shot. I think it's that's a

231
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 2: pretty high percent. You know, I think that that's well.

232
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 2: I would have said it was one until this week.

233
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 2: But I think it's such a debacle. And also it's

234
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 2: so clear as they're having the Stormy Daniels testimony that

235
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 2: they really just want to humiliate Donald Trump. And if

236
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 2: they took the law seriously and if this really was

237
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:07,120
Speaker 2: about justice and about our sacred democracy. They wouldn't have

238
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: some very sad former porn star telling tales from twenty

239
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: years ago about something that Trump completely denies. But even

240
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 2: irrespective of that, certainly not criminal. And why are we

241
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 2: having this told again in a court twenty years later?

242
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,719
Speaker 2: What is the purpose of this? They just want to

243
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 2: humiliate him play They hate him so much that it

244
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: makes them irrational. That is true of the anti Trump

245
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 2: Democrats across the board. They lose context and it looks

246
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 2: like they've lost context and they've lost their judgment when

247
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 2: it comes to all of these criminal trials.

248
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm hoping that that's the case.

249
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 2: Take some your calls and this also Eric Hovedy, running

250
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 2: for Wisconsin Senate going to join us. I want to

251
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 2: talk to him about the economy, by an economy, some

252
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 2: of the very troubling headwinds out there, and basically, and

253
00:13:57,080 --> 00:14:00,000
Speaker 2: people are realizing the government's just taking away your mind.

254
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 2: They don't say it that way, but the government, the

255
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 2: Biden administration, is spending so much that they are spending

256
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 2: your savings into oblivion and your paycheck into oblivion. That

257
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:15,719
Speaker 2: is happening, and that is a way to destroy an economy,

258
00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 2: and it has destroyed economies historically a very large sophisticated market.

259
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 1: So we'll talk more about that.

260
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: But you know, my collection of firearms now includes my

261
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 2: first two guns from Bear Creek Arsenal. I got an

262
00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:29,560
Speaker 2: ar and I got a pistol. The epistols the Grizzly.

263
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 2: It is phenomenal. I love the way that the grip

264
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 2: on the gun make sure that I'm putting my thumb

265
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 2: high up so that I get a stable platform for shooting.

266
00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 2: It is one of the things I see. I do

267
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: it myself a lot of people. You go out there

268
00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 2: and you don't really bring your hands together in a

269
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 2: way that creates that secure, stable shooting foundation. The Grizzly

270
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 2: has the grips for the thumb, not just for your hand,

271
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 2: for the thumb in the right place. I love this

272
00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 2: firearm and also Bear Creek Arsenal is all about the

273
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:02,160

274

Speaker 2: and bringing you the highest quality firearms possible at an

275
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,720

276
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 2: bring together four decades of firearms experience backing that up.

277
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,400
Speaker 2: They've got a wide range of premium calibers that a

278
00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:15,760

308
00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 4: they don't even know what a computer is.

309
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: Listen to cut thirteen.

310
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 6: Young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don't

311
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 6: even know what the word a computer is. They don't know,

312
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:55,440
Speaker 6: they don't know these things, and I want the world

313
00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 6: open up to all of them, because when you have

314
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:03,880
Speaker 6: their diverse voice is innovating solutions through technology, then you're

315
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 6: really dressing society's broader challenges.

316
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,959
Speaker 2: Would I would bet that absolutely one hundred percent of

317
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,160
Speaker 2: young black children in the Bronx know very well what

318
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 2: a computer is, what an insane thing to say, like

319
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 2: what is wrong with her?

320
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 4: They tell on themselves. Democrats do quite frequently. I mean,

321
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 4: even with the photer id laws, they legitimately believe most

322
00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:35,040
Speaker 4: black people don't have functional brains. That's the way they talk.

323
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 4: I mean, a kid in the Bronx doesn't know what

324
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 4: a computer. I mean, it's not nineteen seventy eight, you know,

325
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 4: like where people might be like.

326
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,320
Speaker 1: I don't know a lot of people didn't know what

327
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 1: a computer was at nineteen say eight. Yeah.

328
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 4: And also we all have, even young kids in the Bronx.

329

Speaker 4: Basically computers in our pocket. Right, a phone can do

330
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 4: more than a computer could do in much of the eighties,

00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 4: nineties and early two thousands. Speaking of of the computers

Speaker 2: Any any excuse to eat some form of the seasoned

359
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:37,880
Speaker 2: meat family. I'm generally a fan of Ron DeSantis. Here

360
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: he is I wanted because you're you're an economics guy

361
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 2: just understands or not, like an economics professor, but somebody

362
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 2: who has to actually succeed in the markets. You took

363
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,919
Speaker 2: over community banks. You have a background in the private sector.

364
00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 2: You've done very well, and so you understand financing. Where

365
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 2: where you have to be right, you have to see

366
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,680
Speaker 2: what's really happening in the economy around you. Governor Santis

367
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 2: obviously super sharp guy. I wanted you to re act

368
00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 2: to what he says about what's been going on with

369
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,679
Speaker 2: all the spending and how it affects Wisconsin Nights and

370
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 2: everybody across the country.

371
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:07,399
Speaker 1: Play twelve.

372
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 3: This federal government has borrowed, printed, and spent trillions and

373
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 3: trillions of dollars far beyond what they should have done

374
00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 3: over the last many years. We know that when they

375
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 3: were doing it, there were a lot of people saying,

376
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:23,679
Speaker 3: you are going to have inflation. When the Fed was

377
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 3: printing so much money, people were saying, you're going to

378
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 3: have inflation. And that's exactly what's happened. And so that

379
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 3: has been an invisible tax on every American. People are

380
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:38,399
Speaker 3: paying more for groceries, they're paying more for goods, paying

381
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 3: more for services.

382
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 2: Tell us about this invisible tax that Ron DeSantis is

383
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 2: setting up here.

384
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 5: So let me give you hard numbers behind it. So

385
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 5: Joe Biden spent basically four point seven trillion dollars after

386
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 5: the economy had already come out of COVID. Remember we

387
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 5: spent about four trillion dollars during the heart of COVID,

388
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 5: so he spent four point seven Well, when you spend

389
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 5: that amount of money, the Federal Reserve, which is the

390
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 5: bank for the federal government, had to monetize that debt,

391
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,960
Speaker 5: and in that process they increase the money supply by

392
00:21:14,960 --> 00:21:19,360
Speaker 5: an enormous amount. Well, what is inflation. Inflation is too

393
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 5: much money chasing a fixed amount of goods and services.

394
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:27,919
Speaker 5: So it's the reckless spending that has created this wave

395
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 5: of inflation that has driven up the cost of people's food.

396
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 5: They're gasoline everything that they touch in life. And it

397
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 5: was never transitory. That was just a total misnomer by

398
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 5: Jerome Powell who runs the FED. So they've been engaging

399
00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 5: in voodoo economics and it has cost the American public dearly.

400
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 5: But there's a video I don't know if you guys

401
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:56,040
Speaker 5: have shown it or have played it for your listeners,

402
00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 5: where it's Jared Bernstein, who's spent Biden's chief economic advisor

403
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:08,000
Speaker 5: since his vice president's day. And this guy never was

404
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 5: trained in economics, and they're literally asking him about MMT

405
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,160
Speaker 5: modern monetary theory and he can't even explain the most

406
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 5: basic things. And you watch this and go, yeah, you

407
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,199
Speaker 5: wonder why we have all these negative consequences because we

408
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 5: have completely incompetent people leading our government and our government finances.

409
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,240
Speaker 5: And that's the sad thing about it. So you talk

410
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:39,440
Speaker 5: about an insidious tax, Inflation is just a back toward

411
00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 5: tax that whittles away the standard of living for every American.

412
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 4: How much difference and better off do you think the

413
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 4: United States would be if everyone representing the United States

414
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:57,280
Speaker 4: was like you and had had to run a successful

415
00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 4: business at some point in time. Because what Buck and

416
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,640
Speaker 4: I talk about sometimes is Joe Biden's been in government

417
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 4: for forty seven or forty eight years, you got AOC's

418
00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:11,320
Speaker 4: running around. I don't think they understand basic economics. And

419
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 4: if you don't understand basic economics, you end up making choices.

420
00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:17,760
Speaker 4: It feels like that many of our politicians make.

421
00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:22,800
Speaker 5: One hundred percent. And look, we have a lot of

422
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 5: that on the Republican side too, And that's why we're

423
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:29,159
Speaker 5: in this position where we have thirty four trillion dollars

424
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:31,560
Speaker 5: in debt, where the interest costs on our debt now

425
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 5: is bigger than any expenditure in the federal government other

426
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,520
Speaker 5: than Social Security. It's bigger just the cost of servicing

427
00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 5: our debt is bigger than our Defense department, and by

428
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 5: the way, in a year, will be bigger than Social Security,

429
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 5: and it's putting Social Security at risk. So you know,

430
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 5: the problem is you have these career politicians. Center Baldwin,

431
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 5: who I'm running against, is one of the most liberal.

432
00:23:55,680 --> 00:24:00,200
Speaker 5: Their whole life has been politics thirty eight years, and

433
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 5: it's been in Washington, d C. For coming on twenty

434
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 5: six years. She knows nothing about how the real economy works,

435
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 5: how business works. Think of it this way. She's never

436
00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 5: had to buy herself health insurance. She's always had health

437
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 5: insurance offered by whatever government position. I've not only had

438
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,400
Speaker 5: to buy health insurance, I've had to buy it for

439
00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 5: thousands of people how to manage it. I've seen the

440
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 5: disaster that Obamacare has created. So unless you've had to

441
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,840
Speaker 5: deal with these issues and understand these issues and understand economics,

442
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,480
Speaker 5: then you've got people sitting in Washington, which sadly we've

443
00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:41,840
Speaker 5: had for far too long, that don't know what the

444
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 5: hell they're doing. And they don't understand the consequences of

445
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 5: the decisions they're making.

446
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,920
Speaker 2: We're speaking to Eric Hovedy. He's running up in Wisconsin

447
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 2: for a critical Senate seat. He's running against career politician

448
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 2: Tammy Baldwin. And on the issue of the spending and

449
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 2: what it's doing the economy, ice is certainly going up.

450
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 2: But I saw the statistic and it I found it

451
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: really concerning, Eric, and especially given that they're going to

452
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,240
Speaker 2: try to pull whatever levers they can in the Biden

453
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,800
Speaker 2: White House to make things look better than they are.

454
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 2: Right they're going to put lipstick on the pig, so

455
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,959
Speaker 2: to speak, between now an election day. Even with that

456
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 2: going on, forty three percent of small businesses couldn't pay

457
00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 2: their rent in full because of the economy right now,

458
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 2: That was just from Bloomberg. What's going on with that?

459
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 5: Look the economic data that's being put out, I'm starting

460
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 5: to really question. I'll give you this one example employment data.

461
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,960
Speaker 5: We've never had a time series like this where what

462
00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 5: they report for job growth in a given month because

463
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 5: they do it the first Friday of every month, and

464
00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:50,359
Speaker 5: then they'll always put in their revision for the prior month.

465
00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 5: We've had was at sixteen out of seventeen times they say, oh,

466
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:59,680
Speaker 5: we've created this amount of jobs, and then the next

467
00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 5: month they always lower how much jobs they created the

468
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 5: last time. Nor do they tell you that most of

469
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 5: all the jobs that have been created are second time jobs,

470
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 5: not full first time jobs. So if you look at,

471
00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:17,640
Speaker 5: you know, underneath the belly, if you look at what's

472
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:22,000
Speaker 5: happening with credit card debt or auto debt and the

473
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:27,480
Speaker 5: default rates that are rising significantly, particularly to those that

474
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 5: are you know, in the lower bottom quarter of you know,

475
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:36,480
Speaker 5: economic earnings, they're being crushed by inflation. And you know,

476
00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 5: it's so sad. I was. I was with a younger

477
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:44,000
Speaker 5: person and this young gal came up to me and said,

478
00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 5: I'm working two jobs. I work all the time, and

479
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,159
Speaker 5: I'm still having to live with my parents. And I

480
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 5: just thought, how sad. I mean, clearly she wants to,

481
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 5: you know, be standing on her own two feet, but

482
00:26:57,040 --> 00:27:00,679
Speaker 5: she can't get ahead, and she's working hard. It's not

483
00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 5: somebody just CouchSurfing. So what they're doing, they've really damaged

484
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 5: the American economy and so many Americans and on multiple

485
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 5: different levels. And again, look at healthcare, Look at the

486
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 5: cost of health care, and the access to healthcare. I

487
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 5: really want more Republicans to start talking about this issue

488
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 5: because the consequences of what Obamacare, what they passed, are

489
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 5: all coming home to roost now with access to care

490
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,959
Speaker 5: and the cost of care. So they've created a total mess,

491
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:35,360
Speaker 5: and it's time we get real people that understand how

492
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 5: the economy works and how you know, society works in there,

493
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 5: you know, taking over, because that's what our founding fathers wanted.

494
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:48,120
Speaker 5: They wanted citizen legislators, people that brought expertise, went and

495
00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 5: served for a term or two, and then got the

496
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:55,720
Speaker 5: heck out of there. Instead, we've created this career politician

497
00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 5: political class that's been running Washington, d C.

498
00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:01,919
Speaker 4: All right, I got a gift for you. Could be

499
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 4: a good thing, could be a bad thing. Serious, serious question.

500
00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 4: I think I asked you about this last time. I'm

501
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:13,240
Speaker 4: coming up now to Madison, Wisconsin. On September fourteenth, Alabama

502
00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:15,919
Speaker 4: Crimson Tide is going to be on the road playing

503
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,439
Speaker 4: against your beloved Wisconsin Badgers. Should we do I know

504
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 4: you want to watch the game. Should we do some

505
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 4: form of fun Friday evening in Wisconsin area event for

506
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 4: all of the Alabama and Wisconsin fans that are going

507
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,280
Speaker 4: to be in town. To me, this feels like a

508
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 4: no brainer, be an awesome time.

509
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:40,480
Speaker 5: I think it would be a blast. I'm so excited

510
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,480
Speaker 5: about this. You know, it's always fun when you get

511
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:48,680
Speaker 5: big rivals from Earth from different conferences that haven't been

512
00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 5: rifles in the past, but big, well named program. So

513
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 5: we're really excited to have Alabama come up and we

514
00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 5: look forward to putting on, you know, a great show

515
00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 5: here in Madison, Wisconsin. It's a great space stadium, Camp

516
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 5: Randall to watch a game, So we're super excited.

517
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 4: We I will be there. I think I'm going to

518
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,480
Speaker 4: be in town. We should talk about a fun Friday

Speaker 4: event leading into that game on Saturday. Can't wait to

520
00:29:17,880 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 4: check it out. And I would imagine there are a

521
00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,560
Speaker 4: lot of Wisconsin Badger as well as Alabama Crimson Tide

522
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:25,520
Speaker 4: fans listening to us right now who would like to

523
00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 4: be a part of that. And oh, by the way,

524
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:31,239
Speaker 4: you're also in the most important state maybe in the

525
00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,920
Speaker 4: entire country, not only for your Senate race, but for

526
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 4: who's going to be the next president of the United States.

527
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 5: One hundred percent. I mean, look, I don't think Wisconsin's

528
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 5: the battleground state. I mean it's one to five, and

529
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 5: if I can win this Senate race, this can pretty

530
00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 5: much not only assured, you know, the next two years,

531
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 5: but potentially the next four and six years. And we

532
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 5: move it from a hardcore progressive lefty to somebody with

533
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 5: common sense and you know it's a conservative. So yeah,

534
00:30:03,920 --> 00:30:07,200
Speaker 5: it's it's gonna be fun. Look forward to it and

535

Speaker 5: drinking beer and eating brats and cheese kurds and watching

536
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:13,760

Speaker 1: You know there are and is as well.

582
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 4: There should be a ton of attention on the presidential

583
00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 4: race and Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, they're all going to have

584
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:03,440
Speaker 4: a major go of it, but a little bit of

585
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 4: positivity out there. West Virginia because Joe Manchin is not running,

586
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:13,080
Speaker 4: is going to be won by Jim Justice, which is

587
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 4: a Republican seat. That makes it fifty to fifty and obviously,

588
00:33:16,720 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 4: depending on who the vice president is, a fifty to

589
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,720
Speaker 4: fifty tie can be broken by the vice president. So

590
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,160
Speaker 4: if Trump were to win, whomever his vice president is

591
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 4: would be able to break that tie. But if you

592
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:37,800
Speaker 4: look at the at the predictive markets, Ohio has recently

593
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 4: joined Montana as now favored to flip back to Republican control,

594
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 4: that would mean fifty two forty eight, and the man

595
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 4: we just had on Eric Huvedy. There are winnable races

596
00:33:52,680 --> 00:34:00,560
Speaker 4: in Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona, there are a Nevada, at

597
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 4: least five other Republican potential pickups in battleground states, and

598
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 4: there's not really Ted Cruz is in great shape. Rick

599
00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,320
Speaker 4: Scott is in great shape both in Texas and in Florida.

600
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,439
Speaker 4: If you want a reason for optimism and you're maybe

601
00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,880
Speaker 4: you're just out there and you say, I'm not really

602
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:26,439
Speaker 4: sold on what's going to happen in the presidential race.

603
00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:30,720
Speaker 4: There is a very strong chance now of Republican control

604
00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 4: taking back over the Senate, and that's important because it

605
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,759
Speaker 4: would be a major check on what Joe Biden, if

606
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 4: he were to be reelected, we're able to be able

607
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 4: to accomplish. And I just don't know that's being talked

608
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 4: about enough. And there's the potential if we really got

609
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,479
Speaker 4: things rolling, to get into a fifty four, fifty five,

610
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 4: fifty six Senate majority for Republicans, which would be a

611
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,400
Speaker 4: transformative number relative to where we are right now. So

612
00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 4: I just think it's worth keeping mind buck as much

613
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,279
Speaker 4: attention as we all pour into what's going to be

614
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 4: a very close race in those six seven battleground states.

615
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 4: There's a lot of Senate seats at play out there,

616
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 4: and in particular in West Virginia, Montana, and Ohio. Bernie

617
00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 4: Marino is in a great space in Ohio. And we

618
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:24,839
Speaker 4: had Shei Hei on was it last week? I think

619
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:26,360
Speaker 4: right at the end of the week, who is in

620
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,919
Speaker 4: really good space in running a very good race.

621
00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,400
Speaker 1: Senate is looking good, Senate is looking good. House is

622
00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 1: gonna be a little more challenging. And remember there's there's

623
00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:37,440
Speaker 1: a House.

624
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 2: Majority, and like a real House majority, so something we

625
00:35:41,080 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 2: got to focus on. We want more than a handful

626
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:47,600
Speaker 2: a couple of seats in the majority. But to that end,

627
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,040
Speaker 2: we got our friend Ryan Gradusky in the third hour

628
00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 2: going to join us play. He has this this whole

629
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,560
Speaker 2: paradigm that he has laid out where you look at

630
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 2: really this election being determined by the Sun Belt versus

631
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,640
Speaker 2: the russ Felt or not as those things in opposition,

632
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 2: but those are the two cohorts, the two battlegrounds, if

633
00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: you will, where this will be determined. How are things

634
00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:12,719
Speaker 2: going in one versus how are things going in the other.

635
00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 2: So we'll break that down with him, but also look

636
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,120
Speaker 2: and see if there's anything from the stormy Dan. Look,

637
00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,840
Speaker 2: without the stormy testimony, we already know all of this.

638
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,080
Speaker 2: It's not only are they acting like spoiled children, Clay,

639
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 2: this whole brag trial isn't even interesting.

640
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:31,400
Speaker 4: You're correct, and that all of this has been reported

641
00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:34,800
Speaker 4: for years, And I'm actually getting more and more optimistic

642
00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 4: we're gonna get at least one Patriot on that trial. Slee, Travis,

643
00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 4: and Buck Sexton on the front lines of truth
