I 21 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: wanted to note that last night there were some phenomenal speeches, 22 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: the biggest one of course, being President Trump himself. But 23 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,800 Speaker 1: I don't know how I think that there's a We 24 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: have a lot of you that are of the same 25 00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 1: guys of roughly the same age as Clay and me, 26 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: and you probably have the same feelings about this individual 27 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: that we do, which is just when you were a 28 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,720 Speaker 1: young guy, Hulk Hogan was just the coolest guy in 29 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: the world, like like circa nineteen ninety, right, Hulk Hogan 30 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: was just the best, and he made Terry what's his 31 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,720 Speaker 1: real at Terry Terry Billia? I think Terry Billia, that's right, 32 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: So Terry Billia ak, Hulk Hogan was there last night, 33 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: and brother, he was there for you to play one 34 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: what Sigarna two when Donald Tuugh and all. 35 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 2: The top of maniacs run wild on you. 36 00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: Brother Biden's answer, by the way, resounding answer is what 37 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: no idea? What's going on? Well? What's crazy? 38 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 3: You shared this, and I think it speaks to the 39 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 3: tone deafness. The Biden Harris campaign team shared this as 40 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 3: if it were some maga crazy threat, which just makes 41 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 3: me think, did. 42 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: You see this like such a there's such a bunch. 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: They don't even know that that's a famous Hult Cogan 44 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 3: slogan and not an actual Somebody tweeted that they were 45 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 3: waiting for CNN to fact check Hulk Cogan and be 46 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 3: like he is not actually speaking to his brother, you know, 47 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 3: like you know, just like running through all of his 48 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 3: on the mic commentary. But I saw when, like when 49 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 3: I saw the Biden Harris teams share that, I just 50 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: thought to myself, are they actually working for Trump? Like 51 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:56,080 Speaker 3: has Trump taken over the Biden Harris campaign's slogan? Because 52 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,480 Speaker 3: are they just filled with that many imbeciles that they 53 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 3: thought in some way that's like some existential threat of violence. 54 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: I don't even understand what they could be thinking. Of 55 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:15,400 Speaker 1: the lamest things about the lamestream media, they make believe 56 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 1: the game that they play that they can't understand Trump 57 00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: jokes or Maga jokes is one of the most annoying 58 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 1: because it's so petty, it doesn't work, it's dumb. It's 59 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: just it's their version of I know you are, but 60 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: what am I or you know, giving us like the 61 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: it's just but they do it I don't know they 62 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: they're so deranged about Trump that they pretend they can't 63 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: get jokes. For those of us who have a sense 64 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: of humor about anything and understand that last night was 65 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: also about pageantry and showmanship. That's what's what a convention, 66 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: a political convention is. It's meant to be a visual, 67 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: it's meant to be a spectacle. It was awesome to 68 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: have Hulk Hogan there doing his thing, and he's also 69 00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 1: I'll say this, there's nostalgia behind it, sure, but hul 70 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: Cogan also takes us back to an air right because 71 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: he got really big in the late eighties and the 72 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: early nineties, right, well, that was really his print. He 73 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: takes us back to a time when American flags and 74 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: pride in your American ness and Americanism was expected. It 75 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 1: was it was celebrated, it was something to just be 76 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 1: happy about. It's the Democrat party of the twenty first 77 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: century that is, by their own admission, in some cases, 78 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: frightened of the American flag and Americana. So Hulk's a throwback. 79 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 1: But Clay, I think he also shows how much things 80 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: have changed because Democrats look at him like, oh my gosh, 81 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: why is he wearing that time, those the T shirt 82 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 1: that he's ripping up. It's so hyper masculine. 83 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 3: Well, it takes me back to for instance, and you 84 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,919 Speaker 3: guys can fact check me on this if I'm wrong, 85 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 3: but I believe the nineteen eighty eight Olympics were in Seoul, 86 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 3: in Korea, and I was at that point in time 87 00:04:55,560 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 3: nine years old, and that is basically the apex of 88 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 3: when Hulk Cogan was becoming an absolute global superstar. It 89 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 3: continued from there, and you could say he was superstar 90 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 3: on either side of that. But what I remember about that, 91 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 3: as you are just bringing up, is we're gonna have 92 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 3: the Olympics start in just a couple of weeks in Paris, 93 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 3: maybe a week, whatever the math is on that. I 94 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,760 Speaker 3: remember watching the nineteen eighty eight Olympics and rooting as 95 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: hard as I could for Americans to win every single medal. 96 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 3: And I remember old school day, Buck, you would pull 97 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 3: up the newspaper and it was a really big deal 98 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 3: which country won the most medals? Do you remember all that, 99 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 3: Like how much nationalism there was to root for your country. 100 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: Patriotism was cool. We grew up in an era where 101 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: patriotism was cool and filthy commies in this country who 102 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: hated their own country were treated like the filthy commies 103 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: they are. That that transformed, that changed, starting I would 104 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 1: say in the mid nineties and then in the early 105 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,400 Speaker 1: two thousands, although nine to eleven I think put a 106 00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: there was a momentary pause on the hating of patriotism, 107 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 1: and then they got back to hating patriotism a few 108 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: years into the Bush term, or maybe two years into 109 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: the Bush term. But Hulk Hogan represents an era where 110 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: our cultural icons were still expected our American cultural icons 111 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 1: were still expected to love America, and that is absolutely 112 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: no longer the case. Unfortunately, it's very you know, whether 113 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: it's the you know, the kneeling and like the US 114 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 1: women's soccer teams. I mean, we could go all day 115 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: all these different people who elevate themselves by lowering and 116 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:42,840 Speaker 1: demeaning this the greatest country in all human history. That's 117 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 1: been a that's a troubling cultural and political shift, and 118 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 1: I think Hulk Hogan is a he harkens back to 119 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 1: the era where everyone loved the American flag. 120 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 3: And I would argue too, people are getna get fired 121 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 3: up about this. Hulk Hogan maybe the greatest sports entertainer 122 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 3: of all time. I don't know who else you would 123 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 3: put on that category now. And again, I'm not saying 124 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 3: he's Michael Jordan. I'm not saying he's Babe Ruth. I'm 125 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 3: not saying he's the greater, say athlete, you said sports 126 00:07:09,880 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 3: entertains entertainer. I don't know that anybody is better than him. 127 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 3: And what it also epitomized to me from this convention, 128 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: and I thought yesterday very much epitomized at Buck Republicans 129 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 3: have become the party of fun. When's the last time 130 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 3: that you saw Democrats and they just looked like they 131 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,440 Speaker 3: were having a really good time? Maybe eight Obama, It's 132 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 3: been a long time where you put it on and 133 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 3: there was just a joy and an effervescence associated with it. 134 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 3: Whether it's kid rock, and by the way, the reaction 135 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 3: shots of some of the RNC members trying to dance 136 00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 3: to kid Rock was funny. But Haul Cogan, Dana White, 137 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 3: just this personification of American badass ness and fun. I 138 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 3: think that carries through. I think it's infectious, and I 139 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,559 Speaker 3: don't think Democrats are always like upset now about fun 140 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 3: or people who have success or people who are having 141 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 3: a good time, and I think that carries through and conveys, 142 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 3: particularly with young men who I believe are breaking Republican 143 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 3: in a big way right now. Yes, it's more than 144 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 3: just a party or a politician. 145 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 1: It's a movement. Maga, maga, however you choose to say it. 146 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,920 Speaker 1: You have people that I don't remember unless you were 147 00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,559 Speaker 1: at a political rally. I don't remember ever seeing people 148 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: walking around, particularly wearing Bush Cheney gear. Yeah, Trump has 149 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: merchandise swag. He's got stuff that people wear all the time. 150 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,319 Speaker 1: You go out in certain parts of the country, like 151 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: where Clay is up in the Panhandle, and you'll see 152 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: photos or you'll see it you're with your own eyes 153 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: of boats that have Trump flags, like there'll just a 154 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: there's a sense of unity and of fun and also 155 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 1: just there's a culture. Trump has cultural implications and you 156 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: saw that on display last night. As for what he 157 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 1: actually said, let's get into some of what Trump's messaging was, 158 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: because I thought, you know, it's interesting people were saying, oh, 159 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 1: he spoke too long. Well, that's what Trump does. And 160 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 1: I would say the first thirty minutes were remarkable and 161 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: historic and truly moving, and the rest of it was 162 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 1: Trump being Trump, and a lot of people, especially given 163 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 1: what happened with a bullet scraping his head and other 164 00:09:29,920 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 1: bullets just barely missing him, they really appreciated that Trump 165 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 1: could get up there, and do you know, they wanted 166 00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 1: as much Trump as they could get on that stage. 167 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: It was a reassurance, I think, to a lot of 168 00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: people who truly believe in Trump and the movement he represents. 169 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: It was reassurance that he's definitely okay because he's really 170 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: being Trump up there, you know. And sure he maybe 171 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: has a new perspective on things, which anybody would after 172 00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,560 Speaker 1: a near death experience like that, and that is certainly 173 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: what it was. But I think it was reass sure 174 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 1: into the Trump faithful that he's able to get up 175 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,720 Speaker 1: there do what he did. And it also, by the way, 176 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:11,480 Speaker 1: Clay is quite a juxtaposition between Biden, who is still 177 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: and I'm seeing the troubling reports that Biden may be 178 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 1: dropping out on Sunday. I'm seeing them, don't they I 179 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 1: will not I will not waiver. I will never surrender 180 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: Clay until I am totally defeated. I mean, we may 181 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: wake up one day and Buck Island may have been 182 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,320 Speaker 1: hit by a tidal wave and no longer exists, and 183 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: historians will wonder where it was, But for now the 184 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: island end yours. But Biden can't get up, and can't 185 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:37,599 Speaker 1: get up and do the debate for ninety minutes. We 186 00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 1: all saw that he really can't get up and do 187 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 1: very much at all in public. Trump can go off 188 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 1: the cuff for I think he probably just got tired 189 00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: because it was midnight. I mean, Trump could go up 190 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: there and do a three hour stage show by himself 191 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 1: any day of the week and it would be entertaining, 192 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: and he would go off prompter and we'll play some 193 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: of those cuts for you as he went off prompter. 194 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: But to me, the first thirty minutes is probably where 195 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 1: seventy five or eighty percent of people are watching. Then 196 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: it gets late on the East Coast. People got kids 197 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 1: put to bed, they've got to take care of their 198 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: nightly obligations. A lot of you just get tired. 199 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: But one thing that I haven't heard anybody say is 200 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 3: by speaking long, Trump basically cut any of the criticism 201 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 3: of him out of CNN and MSNBC's viewership because by 202 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 3: the time he finished, it was after midnight on the 203 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 3: East Coast and most of the reactions, whatever they were 204 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 3: going to be positive or negative, people turned off their 205 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 3: televisions and went to bed. If he had done a 206 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,439 Speaker 3: thirty five minute speech, there would have been still a 207 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,960 Speaker 3: substantial audience for an hour of people reacting to what 208 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 3: he said. Instead, most people when Trump finished just turned 209 00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 3: off their televisions. And this morning the narrative cycle has 210 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 3: already moved from Hey, what happened at the RNC to 211 00:11:55,280 --> 00:11:57,800 Speaker 3: what's Biden going to do? We're right back to where 212 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 3: we were before the RNC started. The new movie is 213 00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 3: the same as the old movie, and it is what 214 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: are democrats going to do? And I do think that 215 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 3: is an intriguing aspect of this. We'll play a couple 216 00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:12,520 Speaker 3: of cuts for you from Trump when we come back, 217 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,160 Speaker 3: and also continue to take your calls eight hundred and 218 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 3: two two two eight a two.

I 244 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,680 Speaker 3: know we're all reacting to the RNC and the battleover 245 00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 3: whether Biden is going or not going to be the nominee. 246 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 3: But the details that continue to come out about how 247 00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 3: close we came to Trump being assassinated on live television, 248 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 3: to legitimately having his head blown off while he was 249 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:16,160 Speaker 3: trying to talk to people in Pennsylvania become even more 250 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 3: disturbing and even more infuriating with every single day. And 251 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 3: I give Trump and frankly his family, we talk to 252 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 3: all of them basically this week, a lot of credit 253 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 3: for not obsessing over this and even being complementary of 254 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 3: the Secret Service agents that were on the stage to 255 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: immediately protect him. But I cannot believe at all that 256 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 3: this Secret Service director still has her job and that 257 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 3: there is an absolute demand across the political spectrum for 258 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 3: her to be fired. The newest report is from Senator 259 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 3: Josh Holly that says many of the people who were 260 00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 3: supposedly in the Secret Service detail or just you know, 261 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 3: Homeland security employees that had no particular training at all 262 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 3: to be able to protect the president. And as more 263 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: and more of these videos come out of that guy 264 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 3: climbing onto the roof of that shed, I get angrier 265 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: that this happened, and just can't stop thinking about how 266 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 3: fortunate we are that Trump wasn't killed, but also this 267 00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 3: Corey Comparatore the fact that he was killed, and I 268 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 3: thought Trump paid great tribute to him. I would be 269 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,600 Speaker 3: furious if I was his family, beyond words, because his 270 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 3: death is directly on their incompetence. 271 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: At some level. When the incompetence is so extreme, it 272 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: becomes hard to believe that it's possible that it's just incompetence. Yes, 273 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: And I think we keep running into that. How is 274 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: it that you have this this secret service, which you know, 275 00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 1: we were dealing with secret service every day at the RNC. 276 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: You know, everyone's gotting padded down and wanded, and there's 277 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: all these security barriers. And I'll be honest with you, 278 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,600 Speaker 1: it feels at the RNC a little excessive sometimes, but 279 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: they have tremendous resources. And they allowed a twenty year 280 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 1: old kid with a rifle to get a shot off 281 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: and hit the president of the year. I mean, like, 282 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: what if we were invaded Clay, if we were invaded 283 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: by North Korea? Okay, and our military just was like, 284 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: oh wait, you didn't think we actually were ready to 285 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: defend the Homeland and you know, and they seized the 286 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: west coast of the United States. I think it would 287 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: be fair to say, what the heck are we paying 288 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,120 Speaker 1: the military for it? Do you know what I mean? This 289 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: is your most important job. This is the one thing 290 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 1: you have to really do. This is all we really 291 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 1: care about when it comes to Secret Service. They've gotten 292 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: very good at, you know, motorcades back and forth in DC, 293 00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: so that people feel really important who were in the 294 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: motorcade and telling people at cocktail parties that are ten 295 00:16:57,320 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: thousand dollars ahead, stand back, stand back. 296 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 5: Now. 297 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,160 Speaker 1: Look, I've dealt with Superservice fair amount. Some of them 298 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 1: are great, just like any organizations. Some of them are 299 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 1: wonderful people. Some of them are jerks. This is their 300 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 1: one job and they failed. And I don't know how 301 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: they come back from this, because the fact that the 302 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: president or President Trump is still alive has nothing to 303 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,240 Speaker 1: do really with Secret Service. It's just that the shooter missed. 304 00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 3: And if you can't get fired for this, what can 305 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 3: you get fired for? That's my big thing. If Biden 306 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 3: won't fire you for this, what is his standard of 307 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 3: job approval and in competence that this somehow doesn't force 308 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 3: him to fire. I just I can't believe this is 309 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 3: where we are. But I don't want to get lost 310 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 3: in the fact that they're right now having the funeral 311 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 3: for a guy who should one hundred percent be alive 312 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 3: today if they had just done the basics of their job. Look, 313 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 3: we might have taken our eyes away from the news 314 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 3: coming out of Israel this week for the RNC to 315 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,399 Speaker 3: a large extent, but that doesn't mean the war in 316 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 3: Israel's ended. In fact, someone just died in Tel Aviv 317 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 3: late last night. If you missed it, what started nine 318 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: months ago on October seventh goes on today. Miss alert 319 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 3: sirens all over taking place in Israel every single day, 320 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 3: and for more than forty years International Fellowship of Christians 321 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 3: and Jews been on the ground in Israel when the 322 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 3: hours of the war starting. Every day since the IFCJ 323 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 3: has been feeding the hungry, protecting the vulnerable. The attacks continue, 324 00:18:24,119 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 3: but resilience to revivers bravely are sharing their stories. One 325 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 3: named Danny. Danny's a volunteer firefighter.

And then you know, it was 352 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: I think the whole speech last night that Trump gave 353 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: Clay as we're watching it was ninety minutes. We just 354 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: a look, don't do a ninety minute wedding toast. I'm 355 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 1: just telling you right now to keep your speeches and 356 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,399 Speaker 1: your toast generally on the short side. For all of us, 357 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 1: you know, Trump is superhuman, but for most of us 358 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: who want to keep it shorter, well, there was the 359 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 1: one part of it that we all agree was particularly memorable, emotional, 360 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:11,919 Speaker 1: and profound, something stirring in the American soul, just to 361 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: hear the words from President Trump, and it was when 362 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: he described what happened to him last weekend in the 363 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: assassination attempt. We just wanted to share this with you 364 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 1: because honestly, it touched all of us as we were 365 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,280 Speaker 1: watching it. It touched our hearts. And listen. 366 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 6: Behind me and to the right was a large screen 367 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 6: that was displaying a chart of border crossings under my leadership. 368 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:45,440 Speaker 6: The numbers were absolutely amazing. In order to see the chart, 369 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 6: I started to like this turned to my right and 370 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 6: was ready to begin a little bit further turn, which 371 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,919 Speaker 6: I'm very lucky I didn't do. When I heard a 372 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 6: loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me really really hard. 373 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:12,399 Speaker 2: On my right ear. 374 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 6: I said to myself, Wow, what was that? It can 375 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 6: only be a bullet and moved my right hand to 376 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 6: my ear brought it down. My hand was covered with blood, 377 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 6: just absolutely blood all over the place. I immediately knew 378 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 6: it was very serious that we were under attack, and 379 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 6: in one movement, proceeded to drop to the ground. Bullets 380 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 6: were continuing to fly as very brave Secret Service agents 381 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 6: rushed to the stage, and they really did. 382 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,439 Speaker 1: They rushed to the start. 383 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 6: Those are great people at great risk, I will tell you, 384 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 6: and pounced on top of me so that I would 385 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 6: be protected. There was blood pouring everywhere, and yet in 386 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,919 Speaker 6: a certain way, I felt very safe because. 387 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: I had God on my side. I felt that. 388 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 6: The amazing thing is that prior to the shot. 389 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:46,240 Speaker 7: If I had not moved my head at that very 390 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:51,920 Speaker 7: last instant, the assassin's bullet would have perfectly hit its mark, 391 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,400 Speaker 7: and I would not be here tonight. 392 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: We would not be together, Clay. 393 00:22:59,480 --> 00:22:59,800 Speaker 2: It was. 394 00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: It was emotional to be at the RNC as Trump 395 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: is saying this. It was emotional. You know, Carrie was 396 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: tearing up. She told me when this was going on, 397 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,639 Speaker 1: so many people in the audience were tearing up because 398 00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: we almost we almost lost Trump, not he almost lost 399 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:21,879 Speaker 1: an election. We almost lost our guy, President Trump to 400 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: violence in an election, to an assassin's bullet. And I 401 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: know it's on the one hand, it shakes you to 402 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: your core to just think about it and to think 403 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: about what would have happened to the country. But I 404 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: do try to take the positive from it of what 405 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: a gift we are in this period right now of 406 00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: Trump is okay. I understand we talked about the Corey 407 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: COMPETI who lost his lost his life. I understand that 408 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 1: it was a disaster from a Secret Service perspective, But 409 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 1: for the nation and for the future of politics in 410 00:23:56,680 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: this country and just our national soul, we were given 411 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,879 Speaker 1: a reprieve. We were given a second chance here. Trump 412 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: was given a second chance, but so were all the 413 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,920 Speaker 1: rest of us. And we talked with the rn C 414 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: chair yesterday. For people who missed it, I haven't heard 415 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: him say this anywhere else or read anyone write about it. 416 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: He said that there's no way the RNC would have 417 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 1: taken place in Milwaukee this week if Trump had been shot. 418 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we would all be in the midst of 419 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 1: funeral preparations arrangements for Donald Trump. And as you mentioned, 420 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:39,640 Speaker 1: Corey Comportoi, right now in Pennsylvania, they are having his funeral. 421 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: And I think it's important to recognize that the Secret 422 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:47,480 Speaker 1: Service futility cost him his life and Trump paid tribute 423 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: to him. We have that cut six. Let's play that 424 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:55,159 Speaker 1: as well, because there was a cost here. Thankfully, the 425 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 1: two other people who were hit, according to what Trump 426 00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: said last night, it appears that they are going to survive. 427 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 1: But this dad, this husband, he died because of Social Security, 428 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: Social Secret Service failure, just like Trump nearly did. Here's 429 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: Trump paying tribute to him. Cut six. 430 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,360 Speaker 6: I want to thank the fire department and the family 431 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 6: for sending his helmet, his outfit, and it was just 432 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 6: something and they're going to do something very special when 433 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 6: they get it. But we did something which cannot match 434 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 6: what happened, not even close. But I am very proud 435 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 6: to say that over the past few days, we've raised 436 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 6: six point three million dollars for the families of David 437 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 6: James and Corey, including from a friend of mine. 438 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 1: Just called up. 439 00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 6: He's sent me a check right here. I just got 440 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:58,479 Speaker 6: it one million dollars from Dan Newland. 441 00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:05,640 Speaker 3: Thank you, Dan, really very I thought powerful moment as 442 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 3: Trump acknowledged that dad and that husband's death. One hundred 443 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 3: percent innocent Trump supporter could have been any of you 444 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,960 Speaker 3: out there listening right now who've ever been to a 445 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:20,719 Speaker 3: Trump rally. And on Monday, the director of the Secret 446 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 3: Service is going to have to testify in front of Congress. 447 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,879 Speaker 3: But to me, if you talk about Biden's weakness and 448 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 3: his inability to lead, not demanding that woman's resignation or 449 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 3: firing her. By the time we got to Sunday and 450 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 3: knew enough of the evidence surrounding this, the incompetence of 451 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 3: the Secret Service protection that day is only getting worse 452 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 3: as more of the details come out. And as we 453 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 3: said on Monday Show, this is not some brilliant strategic 454 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 3: plan of attack that had never been seen before in 455 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 3: the annals of the presidency or American assassination attempts. The 456 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 3: guy climbed on top of the most self evident location 457 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 3: that you could attempt to shoot Trump from and was 458 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 3: able to do so. It is a failure of epic 459 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 3: magnitude that nearly threw this country into complete chaos. And 460 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 3: that's only by the grace of God are we still 461 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,560 Speaker 3: able to have a normal political discussion at all. 462 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: Right now, That's how I like to think of this 463 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: is we were all given a second chance. You know. 464 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: There's a very famous quote by Marcus Aurelius and Meditations, 465 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:38,639 Speaker 1: which is Marcus Aurelius is kind of diary, if you will, 466 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 1: and a lot of the other a lot of I 467 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: should say stoic philosophers have become very popular in recent years, 468 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,359 Speaker 1: especially on social media. But the Marcus Aurelius quote is 469 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 1: think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. 470 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:54,199 Speaker 1: Now take what's left and live it properly. There is 471 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: a perspective that comes from almost losing your life, and 472 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: as a nation, I think we almost lost our politicals system. 473 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I don't know what happens 474 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,840 Speaker 1: if Trump. I honestly can't even really go there because 475 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 1: it's just so horrible for the country. But now we 476 00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:13,639 Speaker 1: recognize the path that we are on with greater clarity 477 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,239 Speaker 1: I think than ever before. And Trump certainly does and 478 00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: that was evident from everything at the r and see 479 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 1: that he was saying, and just the energy and the 480 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: people around him. So let's make the most of this 481 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,920 Speaker 1: second chance that we got in this election, but also 482 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: as a country. We'll take some of your calls here 483 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: in just a moment. If you had a million dollars 484 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 1: in the bank fifteen years ago, that's just two thousand 485 00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: and nine, it has diminished in buying power. A million 486 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 1: dollars from two thousand and nine would have seven hundred 487 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: thousand dollars of buying power today. That's are both inflation 488 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: and out of control federal government spending has done to 489 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 1: the dollar now. Just for contrast, a million dollars invested 490 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 1: in gold two thousand and nine will be worth twice 491 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: that and then some today.

Like we said, 514 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 3: a bunch of interviews that we did as well in Milwaukee, 515 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,400 Speaker 3: so many of you that we wanted to be able 516 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: to share with you. So a lot of those come 517 00:30:16,440 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 3: in here in the third hour. But I've wanted to 518 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 3: share with you for people out there who say I 519 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 3: don't trust any of the polls, I don't believe any 520 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:23,280 Speaker 3: of them. 521 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: Are accurate. 522 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 3: Here is CNN data guru Harry Inton saying Biden's led 523 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 3: so far in the composite polls zero days in twenty 524 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 3: twenty four, which is the exact opposite of twenty twenty, 525 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 3: when Biden had led every day up to this point 526 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 3: in the election cycle. 527 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: Cut a team. 528 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 5: Every single day of the twenty twenty four calendar year, 529 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 5: Joe Biden has been trailing down Trump one hundred percent 530 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 5: of the days. On any day you take a national average, 531 00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 5: Joe Biden has been trailing down Trump. Compare that to 532 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,040 Speaker 5: where we were back in the twenty twenty campaign, where 533 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 5: every single day up to this point in the campaign, 534 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 5: Joe Biden was ahead of Donald Trump on one hundred 535 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 5: percent of the day, really exactly. So it's the complete 536 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 5: and polar opposite of where we were four years ago. 537 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 3: Okay, so the question at this point, obviously we're still 538 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:19,240 Speaker 3: debating whether Biden will be in but leaving aside the 539 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 3: assassination attempt that we saw on Saturday, I think the 540 00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 3: biggest question right now is whether Biden or any Democrat 541 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 3: out there, has the ability to alter the narrative in 542 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: such a way between now and remember, like mid September, 543 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 3: when all of these ballots start getting banked. That's sort 544 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 3: of a snapshot of whatever the national picture is at 545 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 3: that point in time. This is really legit panic time 546 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 3: for Democrats in terms of being able to change the 547 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 3: narrative arc that we've already seen so far in twenty 548 00:31:49,960 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 3: twenty four. I don't see a way that Democrats and 549 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that means there isn't a way. I 550 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 3: just I don't see a way that Democrats can turn 551 00:31:57,960 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 3: this thing around. 552 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 1: I mean this is this is a electoral disaster for 553 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: the whole thing. Whether Biden stays or Biden goes or whatever, 554 00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 1: the whole thing is a disaster for them. Look at 555 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: all the damage that's been done to their brand and 556 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: to the sense that they have anybody who's really in 557 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 1: charge calling the shots. Niles from Missouri was a delegate 558 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,680 Speaker 1: at the RNC. What's up Niles. 559 00:32:20,880 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 2: Driving home today? And I can tell you that it 560 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 2: doesn't matter what the Democrats do, because the Republican National 561 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 2: Convention and President Trump showed that we are the Unity 562 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:33,680 Speaker 2: Party and we're going to bring the country together. President 563 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 2: Trump did not use that speech to pander across the country. 564 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 2: He used that speech to get policy that's going to 565 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,880 Speaker 2: help everybody. No tax on tips that helps everybody across 566 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: the country. You want safer streets, Build that wall helps 567 00:32:46,880 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 2: everybody across the country. I was on the floor and. 568 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 8: I started the chant for Weston, for the mom who 569 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 8: lost her child to the fentanyl crisis. If you want 570 00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 8: to end the fentanyl crisis, come to the Republican Party, 571 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 8: vote for Trump, and we're going to fix this country 572 00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 8: moving forward. 573 00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,160 Speaker 1: Niles, thank you so much. Good to go to have 574 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 1: you at the R and C. Thanks for calling into 575 00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 1: Clay and Buck. You know, Clay, I just say this. 576 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,200 Speaker 1: I've always felt this way. It's something that I've told 577 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 1: people for many years. The great irony of American politics, 578 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: in my mind, is that Democrats kick and scream and 579 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: think it's horrible in the end of democracy. But when 580 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: when our side wins, it's actually better for everybody. Like 581 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: it's actually better for Democrats when they think it's going 582 00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 1: to be so awful, But it is better for Democrats 583 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 1: when Republicans are in charge, because it's like the adults 584 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: are in charge. 585 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 3: You know, Buck, your point on democracy. I actually think 586 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 3: that's the strongest argument Biden has. Remember last week when 587 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 3: he wrote that letter on Monday, and he said, basically, 588 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 3: it will be anti democratic if I'm not the nominee 589 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 3: because we had the entire primary process and I won. 590 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 3: I think he said eighty seven percent of the overall delegates. 591 00:33:56,760 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 3: If he's really going to dig his heels in, that's 592 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 3: what I would anticipate him coming back with as his 593 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 3: strongest argument, because it is profoundly anti democratic to stage 594 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:15,000 Speaker 3: an entire primary. Joe Biden wins overwhelmingly, and then a 595 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:19,000 Speaker 3: couple of weeks before he officially becomes the nominee, a 596 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 3: bunch of rich people and a bunch of elite Democrat 597 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:27,160 Speaker 3: power brokers decide, hey, you can't be the guy. 598 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 1: I would lean hard into that argument. Now. 599 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 3: It doesn't help him in terms of burning down the process, 600 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:34,279 Speaker 3: but I think it's a strong one. 601 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,200 Speaker 1: I didn't want to reign on your parade, Clay, but 602 00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,680 Speaker 1: I'm raining on it. Clay Town has gotten a little 603 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: stormy right now. This is just breaking news via MSNBC, 604 00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: who did not even deign to show at the RNC 605 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: as a news organization, just as a no. They weren't 606 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: even I get CNN. I give them credit. They realize 607 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 1: they got to do something else a little different. They 608 00:34:57,239 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: got to pretend, at least to be journalists. They're not, 609 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:04,200 Speaker 1: but they got to pretend. MSNBC Breaking News. Biden Whitehouse, 610 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 1: as of the last hour, has released a statement saying 611 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 1: Biden will be back on the campaign trail next week. 612 00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: Buck Island prices are skyrocketing.
