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 --> 00:00:09,040
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show.

3
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: Sitting in for Clay and Buck today syndicated radio personality

4
00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: Michael Berry.

5
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,920
Speaker 2: I'll be with you all week and we will spend

6
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:22,480
Speaker 2: some time on the issue of crime, because I think

7
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 2: if Republicans are smart, it will be the single biggest

8
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:33,360
Speaker 2: thrust of the campaign for members of the House, the Senate,

9
00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 2: and the presidential candidate. Going into November fifth. There is

10
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 2: a feeling that the rule of law has collapsed, that

11
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:47,680
Speaker 2: chaos has run them up, that we are in danger.

12
00:00:48,800 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: And I'll get into some polls and some data, and

13
00:00:53,360 --> 00:01:00,600
Speaker 2: I'm not talking about minor crimes, talking about carjackings and murders.

14
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 2: And you look at a case like this. Democrat Louisiana

15
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:10,960
Speaker 2: Governor John Bell Edwards has pardoned fifty six inmates between

16
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 2: October and December of this year, including forty individuals incarcerated

17
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 2: for murder. That was the Fox story this morning. Fifty

18
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 2: six inmates he pardoned on his way out the door

19
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 2: as the new governor takes office, forty of them convicted murderers.

20
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 2: A smart Republican campaign would go out to those family

21
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 2: members of the people who were murdered. It's very powerful

22
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 2: when you talk to the mother of a murder victim,

23
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 2: if they have children, if they have a spouse, it's

24
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:58,680
Speaker 2: very powerful to see the anguish in their face. It's

25
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:07,160
Speaker 2: not manufactured as it's raw. It conveys, it hits you.

26
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 2: There are forty of them, Each one of them has

27
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 2: multiple family members. John Bell Edwards should have indelibly printed

28
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: on his brain every night when he goes to bed

29
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 2: and every morning when he wakes up, the faces of

30
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: that anguish. That's what you do. Do you remember the

31
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: name Willie Horton Lee Atwater was one of the best

32
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 2: at what he did, regardless what you may think of him.

33
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: In nineteen eighty eight, he had George HW. Bush as

34
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 2: a candidate, and Bush had been the eight year vice

35
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: president for Ronald Reagan, and Reagan had really knocked Bush

36
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 2: down a bit in that eighty campaign. And the real

37
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 2: moment where you saw that was during a debate that

38
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:05,839
Speaker 2: the networks weren't going to cover. But the Reagan knew

39
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,560
Speaker 2: he was a great debater, and he knew that he

40
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 2: could finish Bush off in a debate. And remember Bush

41
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 2: wins Iowa in nineteen eighty. So it's not like it

42
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 2: was a FATA company. Reagan was gonna win. No, that's

43
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 2: not true. Bush was the ultimate insider. He'd been the

44
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: head of the CIA, he had been the head of

45
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 2: the RNC, he'd been ambassador to China, he had been

46
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: a congressman. He was well regarded within the party. He

47
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,080
Speaker 2: had the party pooh bahs behind him, He had the

48
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 2: big money, he was a successful businessman. His father had

49
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 2: been a senator from the northeast. This was the party's choice,

50
00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 2: and Reagan had been set aside in seventy six versus

51
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 2: Gerald Ford, who was running for reelection. And Reagan was

52
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 2: the guy who had sort of the Donald Trump coalition

53
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: of the working class that the value based that particular.

54
00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 2: So it really was a sort of establishment Jeb Bush

55
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:14,400
Speaker 2: versus the guy that had the working class, Donald Trump

56
00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 2: in nineteen eighty. In fact, to really draw that full circle,

57
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:26,040
Speaker 2: you probably know what Reagan's campaign slogan was in nineteen eighty,

58
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 2: make America great again. That slogan doesn't appeal to rich people.

59
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,640
Speaker 2: That slogan doesn't appeal to Jeb Bush donors or Mitt

60
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 2: Romney or his donors. That slogan doesn't appeal to Nicky

61
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 2: Hayley donors, or the people that run Raytheon or Halliburton

62
00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:53,560
Speaker 2: or Dick Cheney or Liz Cheney. That slogan doesn't appeal

63
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: to the people who run the Republican Party and fund it.

64
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 2: The people who meet at some big retreat that one

65
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,919
Speaker 2: of their billionaire donors owns, and they plot out who's

66
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,720
Speaker 2: going to be the nominee. Will it be Romney or

67
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: Chris Christi in twenty twelve, who will it be? Trump

68
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: might have their bank account, but they despise him. He's

69
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 2: not their kind of guy. So when you look at

70
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:29,120
Speaker 2: what infuriates the average American, when you look at what

71
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:34,279
Speaker 2: drives people to vote, and those images, you go back

72
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 2: to nineteen eighty eight and Bush, who's been for eight

73
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,919
Speaker 2: years the vice president, to Reagan, who's very popular, and

74
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: Americans like to swing back and forth. Eight years of

75
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 2: George W. Bush, eight years of Barack Obama, then we

76
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 2: go to Donald Trump. We've seen this back and forth

77
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 2: and back and forth. Well, in that year, Lee Atwater

78
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,920
Speaker 2: had to get George H. W. Bush across the finish line,

79
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 2: and he's up against Michael Ducaccas and Doucaucas at that

80
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,120
Speaker 2: point is seen as a guy who doesn't have a

81
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 2: lot of charisma. But he just rolls his sleeve up

82
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,839
Speaker 2: and his sleeves up and he works. He's a policy wonk.

83
00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 2: He just wants good government. And if you remember the

84
00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,120
Speaker 2: eighty eight campaign where Joe Biden ran and had to

85
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:23,360
Speaker 2: drop out of the race because he was caught surprise plagiarizing.

86
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,120
Speaker 2: So maybe he'll be the president of Harvard University next.

87
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 2: But Joe Biden was caught lying, lying about his where

88
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 2: he ranked in school, lying about his degrees, lying about

89
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 2: most everything. Because that's what Joe Biden does, he always

90
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 2: has done. He's lied about the death of his wife.

91
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 2: He's lied about his credentials, he's lied about corn pop,

92
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:50,159
Speaker 2: he's lied about his son. He's a bragger. Everybody knows

93
00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 2: that guy at the work site, who, if you're talking

94
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 2: about a fish you caught this past weekend, comes walking

95
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 2: in and here's it. And no matter how big your

96
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 2: fish is, he caught a big He killed a bigger buck.

97
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 2: His car was faster, his fight was against a bigger guy,

98
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 2: and he beat him worse. He was a bigger star

99
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 2: in sports in eighth grade than you whatever. He's a

100
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 2: one upper. That's what Joe Biden is. He's a one

101
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 2: upper and look where he ended up. So Lea Atwater

102
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: ran a very powerful ad that came to be known

103
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 2: as a Willy Horton ad. But what he did is

104
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 2: he preyed upon the mood in the country at the time.

105
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 2: And that's why this is important. He made George H. W.

106
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 2: Bush into something he wasn't while exposing Michael Ducaccas to

107
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 2: be something he was. Ducaccas had given a furlough to

108
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 2: a guy named Willy Horton. He happened to be black,

109
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 2: he happened to be a guy who couldn't be rehabilitated.

110
00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 2: So by giving him time out of prison, he goes.

111
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 2: I think it was to Illinois if I recall, but

112
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. He gets some time out of prison

113
00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 2: and he uses that occasion to go and somebody. It's

114
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 2: everybody's worst nightmare because we understand that a murderer is

115
00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 2: going to murder, but once you catch him, you throw

116
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,200
Speaker 2: him in a cage and you never let him out again.

117
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 2: But whatever crimes he commits after that moment are far

118
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 2: worse because they were preventable. They were avoidable. The system failed.

119
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:24,360
Speaker 2: You really feel for that victim. When somebody kills somebody

120
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 2: in a drunk driving accident and it's their first time,

121
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,680
Speaker 2: that's terrible. But if it's the fourth time they've done

122
00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 2: it for some reason, it's far worse. And the reason

123
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,840
Speaker 2: is the system failed. We caught the guy. This didn't

124
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,240
Speaker 2: have to happen the first time. We can't assume that

125
00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,240
Speaker 2: everybody's a drunk driver the first time. We punish you,

126
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:47,600
Speaker 2: But if we allow it to happen again, shame on us.

127
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 2: That ad burned into the mind of every middle class

128
00:08:55,040 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: voter in America. George Bush might be aloof, might be distant,

129
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:07,080
Speaker 2: might be a party guy, and he's rich and Michael

130
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:12,480
Speaker 2: Ducaccus needs Massachusetts Democrat. I don't know. He's kind of

131
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 2: squirrellly looking. They're having to shave him five times a day.

132
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 2: He's a little unkempt, and he's short and he squints

133
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,800
Speaker 2: his eyes. And Ducaccas is not a name everybody get.

134
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 2: You know, Bush is simple and easy. But what it

135
00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 2: really came down to was the way nineteen ninety two was,

136
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:37,360
Speaker 2: in Carvill's words, the economy stupid, back pocket issues. Don't

137
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 2: worry about Bush versus Clinton, who cares more about your paycheck?

138
00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 2: And they convinced forty three percent of Americans it was

139
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 2: Bill Clinton and that Bush was out of touch. The

140
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:52,760
Speaker 2: same Bush that four years ago was able to beat Ducaccas,

141
00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 2: not on economic issues, but on the very basis that

142
00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: Ducaccas sees violent criminals as somebody who should be given

143
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,679
Speaker 2: another chance to rape your wife or kill your kids.

144
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:13,400
Speaker 2: That's brutal, that's harsh, and that's how Americans think because

145
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 2: it happens to be true. And when Democrats make it

146
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 2: this easy, and when Soros is doubling down, and when

147
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,560
Speaker 2: the district attorneys are letting more and more criminals out,

148
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 2: and it's in the news every day, that's what you hit.

149
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,040
Speaker 2: That's a winner and it's true, all right. One eight

Speaker 2: hundred two eight two two eight eight two one eight

151

152
00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 2: in for Clay and Buck all week. We'll take some

153
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:38,960
Speaker 2: of your calls coming up.

154
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 1: Flee, Travis and Buck Sexton on the front lines of truth.

155
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:52,160
Speaker 2: When we talk about the connection with Tria, I compare

156
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 2: that and whether you view yourself as a student of politics, campaigns, government,

157
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 2: call sure or not you are, because right now you

158
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 2: could be doing ten other things then listening to talk radio.

159
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 2: You could be on your phone talking to a friend.

160
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 2: You could be scrolling entertainment headlines. You could be watching

161
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 2: a movie. You could be just looking out the window.

162
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,240
Speaker 2: There a number of other things you could be doing.

163
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 2: For you to seek out the spoken word, which tends

164
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 2: to be tense, intense, serious, when you have enough other

165
00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:37,839
Speaker 2: things distracting you and you could use some brain time away.

166
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 2: That makes you a small percentage of Americans who are very,

167
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 2: very focused on what's going on, sort of the anti woke.

168
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 2: But there is a category of people, and what I

169
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:55,800
Speaker 2: don't think the political consultants understand is who you are

170
00:11:56,760 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: and what drives you. Because for so long, as long

171
00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:06,559
Speaker 2: as they never offered you anything other than the Bushes

172
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 2: or Bob Dole or another Bush or another Bush, or

173
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 2: John McCain or Mitt Romney, and then they were going

174
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 2: to give you Jeb Bush. Sure they'd win some elections

175
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:24,760
Speaker 2: along the way, But realistically, those are not people with

176
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 2: whom you identify. They're not people that you connect with.

177
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: When you look at the Trump juggernaut, as I refer

178
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,160
Speaker 2: to it, I think you can see some other personalities

179
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,479
Speaker 2: in modern America who have that same sort of stardust.

180
00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:49,040
Speaker 2: When on April twenty fourth, the news came out that

181
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 2: Fox had fired Tucker Carlson. By all accounts, and I

182
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,959
Speaker 2: don't know Tucker, we're not friends. I've never spoken to him,

183
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,920
Speaker 2: but by all accounts, he was shocked. I think he

184
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: had spoken to the family on that Friday or Saturday night.

185
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 2: He gets a call Monday morning and says, you're fired,

186
00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 2: and you won't be going back on the air to

187
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,920
Speaker 2: say goodbye. I always saw that was such a chicken move,

188
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 2: not to let a guy, to let a person build

189
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 2: an audience and then not say goodbye. But the theory

190
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 2: goes that they'll go on and trash the organization. And

191
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,760
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe Tucker would have, but he seems

192
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 2: too classy to do that. Because one thing you have

193
00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: to say about Tucker, he is a classy guy. I mean,

194
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 2: he's a guy who cares about right and wrong in decency.

195
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: He's not a hothead. I mean, if you ever see

196
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 2: the moment that he's confronted by the guy in the

197
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:50,120
Speaker 2: bait shop, the lure shop is not a bait shop

198
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 2: if they're not using live Bay. But when you see

199
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,280
Speaker 2: him confronted and he's on his day off and he's

200
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,680
Speaker 2: buying some flies to go fly fishing, which he loves

201
00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 2: to do, and this guy just gets right in his

202
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 2: face and he doesn't know he's being filmed because it's

203
00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 2: a guy's buddy who's filming him, and he's sort of

204
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 2: he's he's not laughing at the guy to mock him,

205
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 2: he's he's sort of giggling, like is this really happening,

206
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 2: and then he realizes they're being filmed. I think that

207
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 2: was a moment that showed you this guy has nothing

208
00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 2: to hide. He's not bitter, he's not angry, he's intellectually curious.

209
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 2: Watch how often he giggles. Watch how often he giggles

210
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 2: at things that are crazy. And that's a coping mechanism too.

211
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 2: I'm going to live to fight another day. I'm going

212
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,640
Speaker 2: to see the madness to it all. And he's a

213
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,120
Speaker 2: big Hunter S. Thompson fan. I think Hunter s Thompson,

214
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 2: in his own odd way, was giggling. I think Thomas

215
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 2: Wolf was. I think great PJ. O'Rourke, I think great

216
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 2: social commentators look at the madness and somehow manage a laugh.

217
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: And that allows you to stay in the game for longer,

218
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 2: and it's a stay power that keeps a lot of

219
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,840
Speaker 2: people from being able to continue because you burn yourself out.

220
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 2: I think April twenty fourth and Fox is firing of

221
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:14,360
Speaker 2: Tucker Carlson, I think that is going to turn out well.

222
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 2: I think we're gonna look back in five years, particularly

223
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 2: because Tucker is the first person, much more so than

224
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:22,880
Speaker 2: Bill O'Reilly or any of the other folks that had

225
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 2: a platform and were canned. He is the first to

226
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,440
Speaker 2: show that in this way, he's kind of bigger than

227
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,640
Speaker 2: Fox News. He doesn't need to be on their network

228
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 2: to win, and the Fox News brand, the Fox News

229
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:44,680
Speaker 2: platform is extraordinarily powerful, and you see Tucker has sort

230
00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 2: of gravitated outside that, and I mean, sorry, Trump has

231
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: gravitated outside of that. And you see with Tucker and

232
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 2: with Trump that when they got crossways with Fox, and

233
00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:01,600
Speaker 2: when the perception of very loyal Fox viewers was that

234
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 2: Fox had turned on these soothsayers, these truth sayers, these

235
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:11,120
Speaker 2: good people who you know, the Left was up against,

236
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 2: I think for this time, Fox wasn't able to win

237
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:17,240
Speaker 2: that battle. And these guys have gone on to be

238
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 2: way more popular than they would have already. I maintain

239
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 2: that in five years, we'll look back on that firing

240
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: of Tucker. People ask me, you know, what do you

241
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 2: think of Tucker interviewing Kevin Spacey as Frank Underwood or

242
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:39,480
Speaker 2: interviewing UFO. I think Tucker is incredibly intellectually curious, and

243
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 2: people who get Tucker understand that. And since you can't

244
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 2: be intellectually curious in America today, it's sort of endearing

245
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: Michael Berry and for Clay and Buff more to come.

246
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 2: You know, the Supreme Court is something that people don't

247
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 2: think about until a major case goes before it, and

248
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 2: then you scramble and say, who's on that court? Again?

249
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:16,840
Speaker 2: This is, perhaps, for lasting effect, the most important thing

250
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:21,959
Speaker 2: a president will do. Maybe war could be above that.

251
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 2: I'm thinking and thinking when you're on live radio is

252
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,719
Speaker 2: probably not a good idea. But a Supreme Court justice,

253
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:36,359
Speaker 2: all federal judges serve for life. You have three levels

254
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 2: of district, the appellate, and then the Supreme Court. A

255
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:45,920
Speaker 2: Supreme Court justice serves for life. And that's why it's

256
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 2: important to win the White House, because your Supreme Court

257
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 2: justices will be on the court long after you're gone.

258
00:17:56,119 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 2: In fact, interesting note Out of those nine Supreme Court justices,

259
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:06,760
Speaker 2: Justice Roberts was appointed, was nominated and then confirmed, but

260
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:12,919
Speaker 2: nominated by George W. Bush. You've got Clarence Thomas, the

261
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 2: greatest justice on the Court today, nominated by George HW. Bush,

262
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 2: Samuel Alito George HW. Bush. Then you've got two Obama

263
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 2: Supreme Court justices, Soda Mayor, who's the self described wise Latina,

264
00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 2: Elena Kagan. Both of those are Obama. And then you've

265
00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 2: got three from Trump, Gorsic Kavanaugh, and Amy Cony Barrett.

266
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 2: Amy Cony Barrett is only fifty one years old today,

267
00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,440
Speaker 2: and she'll be on the Court for a very long time,

268
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 2: as will the loan Biden nominee Katanji Brown Jackson, who

269
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 2: is a lightweight. So of those nine, you've got three

270
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 2: nominated by Trump and three nominated by George HW. Bush,

271
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 2: two by Obama, and one by Biden. So that's not right.

272
00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 2: Roberts was George W. Bush, as was Alito. I made

273
00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 2: notes and left my h job. Anyway. The point is

274
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 2: you have Clarence Thomas at seventy five, Alito at seventy three, Roberts,

275
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,440
Speaker 2: who seems very unhappy on the court at sixty eight,

276
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 2: but I don't know how long he's going to want

277
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 2: to do that. You've got these folks, so tom or

278
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,639
Speaker 2: sixty nine. I think she'll be there for a while

279
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:54,040
Speaker 2: unless Biden wins. But you've got a situation where you

280
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 2: have a couple of Supreme Court justices that could very

281
00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:02,680
Speaker 2: well be up because of death or retirement. Yet another

282
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 2: reason you have to win November fifth, Yet another reason

283
00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 2: that people will have to vote for Trump if he's

284
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 2: the dominie, and I submit he will be. Yet another

285
00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,479
Speaker 2: reason they have to vote for Trump, even if they

286
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 2: didn't want to, because it's a completely binary choice. The

287
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 2: executive orders of the Biden administration, which we'll get into

288
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,000
Speaker 2: as the week rolls on. I'll be here all week.

289
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: Those executive orders, the financial cost to us and the

290
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: national security cost to us. It's arguable that we'll never

291
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 2: recover from that. When Catherine Herridge, as we played the

292
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 2: audio of her unfaced the nation, talks about she fears

293
00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,760
Speaker 2: and senses a black Swan event in the United States.

294
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 2: Maybe that's a nine to eleven. That's something bigger than

295
00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 2: a school shooting. That is something that rocks and perhaps

296
00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:05,360
Speaker 2: frightens the nation. Look, I'm not much of a fearmonger.

297
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 2: I'm all about laughing and enjoying and counting our blessings,

298
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 2: but you cannot deny the risk to allowing ten to

299
00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:21,080
Speaker 2: twelve thousand people per day record numbers to come through

300
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 2: our southern border to go to parts unknown that are

301
00:21:27,280 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 2: not just from Mexico. Do you understand I know you do,

302
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 2: the logistical nightmare it takes to get from China or

303
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 2: Afghanistan to get to Mexico, then to get from Mexico

304
00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 2: up to the Texas border, then or Arizona, then to

305
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 2: get into Texas and get to the safe house where

306
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:53,200
Speaker 2: you can find food and clothing and water. These aren't families.

307
00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 2: These are twenty year old men. They almost look exactly

308
00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 2: like an army. Many of them are coming from places

309
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:10,760
Speaker 2: where we have seen terror cells of a dozen or

310
00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:15,480
Speaker 2: fewer be able to wreak havoc. You think about the

311
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 2: April eleventh attacks in Spain in two thousand and four

312
00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 2: that were carried out by Al Qaeda. There's a great

313
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 2: Netflix documentary on that. I think it's called eleven m

314
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,760
Speaker 2: You think about nine to eleven in the United States

315
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 2: and the profound impact that had on the American psyche

316
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 2: and for some of you on you directly, and that

317
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,479
Speaker 2: was nineteen men, what if instead of nineteen you had

318
00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 2: one hundred and ninety or nineteen hundred or nineteen thousand.

319
00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 2: Starts to look a whole lot different, doesn't it. Let's

320
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 2: take a call. Let's go to Blue in California. Blue,

321
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,440
Speaker 2: you are on the Clay and Buff Show with Michael Berry.

322
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 3: Go ahead, sir, Yes, either I was. I've had this

323
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 3: concern for some time after hearing about you know, Trump this,

324
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,959
Speaker 3: Trump that for so much over the past year and stuff.

325
00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,359
Speaker 3: I'm sorry what he's going through. I felt it was

326
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 3: not deserved right, but nonetheless, should he become should he

327
00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 3: become the president, my biggest concern is the people that

328
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:35,200
Speaker 3: would be real hesitant to be in his cabinet, especially

329
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,399
Speaker 3: like in the military aspect of things. I think they

330
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,119
Speaker 3: would be had some sort of I mean, anybody that

331
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:46,439
Speaker 3: would be quality would still be hesitant to be in

332
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 3: that that aspect of things his cabinet. I think they

333
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 3: would be, uh, you know, just because he's has been

334
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 3: so you know, controversial, and everybody you know that's he's

335
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 3: not super well like to cross the board where I

336
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 3: think somebody like DeSantis might draw a more even an

337
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:14,199
Speaker 3: even minded or even centered set of people in the cabinet,

338
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 3: especially in the military.

339
00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:17,080
Speaker 1: Blue.

340
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 2: Who you voting for?

341
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,720
Speaker 3: I'm probably if i'm if I have the choice, I'll

342
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 3: vote for a DeSantis.

343
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 2: Okay, So how many if you and I were to

344
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 2: go to a local diner, have a cup of coffee

345
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:34,600
Speaker 2: and randomly stop people as they walked in and out,

346
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:37,680
Speaker 2: some number of them would say they're going to vote

347
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: in the Republican primary and then vote in November. What

348
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,440
Speaker 2: percentage of them do you think would say? I can't

349
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 2: make up my mind, but I think DeSantis would be

350
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 2: able to get more people to come and work in

351
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,000
Speaker 2: his cabinet than Trump could. So I'm going to go

352
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 2: with DeSantis. I think out of one hundred people.

353
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 3: I think if that was to become a discussion, more

354
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 3: people would be at to do that. But right now

355
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 3: there's just this blanket thing of oh, well, Trump has

356
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:08,359
Speaker 3: been so mistreated and mishandled. You know, we got to

357
00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 3: stand for him and stand for that. But you know,

358
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 3: I think that people need to look past that for

359
00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,120
Speaker 3: the ultimate outcome. Where where are things going to lie?

360
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 3: Should he be actually become you know, should he become

361
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,719
Speaker 3: the president. So I think that's something that needs to

362
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 3: be discussed as far as the other aspect of quality

363
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 3: people that would be, you know, looking at possible choices

364
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 3: for the cabinet, especially military, so blue if.

365
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:40,159
Speaker 2: I were, well, let me go back to that for

366
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 2: a moment, because I will agree that Trump has had

367
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 2: some terrible personnel choices. I think of Scaramucci in his

368
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 2: ten days of just an absolute that was a horrible choice.

369
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:57,200
Speaker 2: I think of Amrosa being allowed inside the White House

370
00:25:57,240 --> 00:26:00,400
Speaker 2: to where she was trying to film an under I mean,

371
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:05,199
Speaker 2: those are horrible, horrible choices. I first admit it, but

372
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 2: I also believe that for too long in this country.

373
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:13,960
Speaker 2: And this goes back to the Bush McCain. This goes

374
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 2: back to that RNC mentality, the old Republican, a kind

375
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,119
Speaker 2: of a Mike Pins Republican that you have these generals

376
00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:23,280
Speaker 2: and they come in and they have all their brass,

377
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 2: and they stand round rod straight, and they are to

378
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:31,199
Speaker 2: be respected and never questioned. And I think Trump is

379
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:33,360
Speaker 2: the opposite of that, and maybe sometimes he goes too

380
00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: far the other way. But I think this idea of

381
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 2: this blind respect for men who seem obsessed with going

382
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 2: to war and by the way when you're a hammer,

383
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 2: everything looks like a nail, the way military leaders rise

384
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 2: through the rank, and they want to rise through the ranks.

385
00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 2: Make no mistake, they are also ambitious, just like presidential candidates,

386
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 2: and oddly enough, look at how many of them become

387
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: presidential candidates. I think that you have to recognize that

388
00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 2: the president is the commander in chief and the president

389
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 2: is the final authority. And one thing I think endears

390
00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 2: people to Trump is his willingness to call some of

391
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 2: our military leaders on the carpet, which he has done,

392
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: battles that he's had, and I think that we've seen

393
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 2: that some of them are questionable characters. And this idea

394
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:37,040
Speaker 2: that you can't dare question the integrity of these men

395
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 2: who say we need to be at war all the time,

396
00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 2: that's just sort of, you know, that sort of Lindsey

397
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 2: Graham fetish for men in uniform. I think most Americans

398
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 2: find to be creepy, including military veterans who went to

399
00:27:56,119 --> 00:28:01,000
Speaker 2: Iraq and who went to Afghanistan, and who went to Vietnam,

400
00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:06,920
Speaker 2: and they watched their buddies die without without sufficient orders

401
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,240
Speaker 2: and without a sufficient plan to protect them and enable

402
00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:14,280
Speaker 2: them to win. We haven't been positioned for a military

403
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 2: victory since World War II. And oh, by the way,

404
00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:23,360
Speaker 2: we let the Russians roll in to Berlin, not the Americans.

405
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:27,400
Speaker 2: We haven't been positioned to send our men in uniform

406
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,360
Speaker 2: into a battle where they might come home to a

407
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,720
Speaker 2: parade and a picture of them grabbing their girl, turning

408
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 2: her over, having a kiss. An American victory in eighty years.

409
00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 2: Think about that for a moment. So I don't think

410
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,640
Speaker 2: I think Trump represents the American We are not a

411
00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 2: military junta. We are a civilian based government, and the

412
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:53,480
Speaker 2: military works for us. And I think some people have

413
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 2: a little too much. It's not even respect, it's this

414
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 2: weird sort of fetish for the uniforms and the medals,

415
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,040
Speaker 2: and and they can't be questioned. The hell they can't.

416
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 2: They absolutely can be questioned because they're sending our boys

417
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 2: to wars. They send them to Look what McNamara did

418
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 2: to our boys in Vietnam. Look at our boys that

419
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 2: went into Iraq and didn't come home. Look at our

420
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:17,160
Speaker 2: boys that went into Afghanistan, thirteen of them killed under

421
00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:20,320
Speaker 2: the botched withdrawal. So if you were to ask me,

422
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 2: I think that that would be a factor in Trump's favor.

423
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 2: I really do. I'm Michael Berry and for Clay and Buck.

424
00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 2: One more segment to finish out the hour and I'll

425
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 2: be with you all week. Coming up, make an appointment

426
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 2: with the truth.

427
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: Tune in every day to the Clay Travis and Buck

428
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: Sexton Show.

429
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 2: I'd like to leave you with a little food for

430
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,400
Speaker 2: thought before tomorrow's show. I'll be with you all week.

431
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,560
Speaker 2: My name is Michael Berry. You can email me directly,

432
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 2: and many of you have already through our website at

433
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 2: Michael berryshow dot com. Seven years ago, the murder rate

434
00:29:52,880 --> 00:29:57,080
Speaker 2: in Al Salvador was five two hundred and sixty nine

435
00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 2: people murdered in that tiny little country. Last year it

436
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:06,600
Speaker 2: was less than ten percent of that, at four hundred

437
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:10,400
Speaker 2: and ninety five. And the best I have so far

438
00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:15,160
Speaker 2: for this year, and this isn't exact till the last day,

439
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 2: is one hundred and forty six, making El Salvador safer

440
00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 2: than many parts of the United States. And El Salvador

441
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 2: was the murder capital seven years ago. Elections matter, People matter.

442
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:38,360
Speaker 2: I often use the example, how good would the New

443
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 2: England Patriots be having won six Super Bowls Without Tom Brady?

444
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 2: We got to find out, didn't we That's not to

445
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 2: say that Bill Belichick's not a great coach. Oho he

446
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: wasn't so good in Cleveland. It's not to say that

447
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 2: Bill Belichick didn't contribute to those Patriots super bowls. He did.

448
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 2: He managed to find talent like Randy Moss and other

449
00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 2: players that maybe were at the end of their career

450
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 2: and wanted one final shot. He managed to surround Tom

451
00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:14,080
Speaker 2: Brady with great players. But how good were the Patriots

452
00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 2: when Brady left? And how good were the Buccaneers when

453
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 2: he got there? Well, they were pretty good before he

454
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 2: got there. Anyway, It's hard to know. It's a team sport,

455
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 2: but people matter, and we all understand if you're a

456
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 2: sports fan that if you've got a great quarterback like

457
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 2: a Patrick Mahomes, you had a bad week Sunday, but

458
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:35,959
Speaker 2: you have a Tom Brady at Patrick Mahomes, you have

459
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,560
Speaker 2: one of these guys as your quarterback, you got a

460
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 2: lot better chance to win than somebody that has say

461
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 2: Ryan Tannehill or some other slub. And you wouldn't tolerate

462
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 2: a bad quarterback on your team. And yet we've got

463
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:55,520
Speaker 2: the worst quarterback in the NFL quarterbacking America it matters.

464
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 2: But look at El Salvador, a country that was law,

465
00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:03,880
Speaker 2: a country that was the murder capital, a country where

466
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 2: you're worried that in a fight between the military and

467
00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,880
Speaker 2: the bad guys, the bad guys would win. I'm going

468
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,600
Speaker 2: to talk a little about him, but I want you

469
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 2: to go look him up. His name is naib Bu Kayley.

470
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 2: Just look up L Salvador, and you know what he

471
00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:22,719
Speaker 2: did is a radical notion. You know how he dealt

472
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:26,200
Speaker 2: with the highest murder per capita rate in the world.

473
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 2: He went out and grabbed the murderers and he put

474
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:36,000
Speaker 2: them in prison, and he didn't let him out. We're

475
00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:39,600
Speaker 2: facing a real challenge in this country on November fifth,

476
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 2: to beat the Democrats. Yes there will be cheating, Yes

477
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 2: there will be all the things that go with that.

478
00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,640
Speaker 2: But if you win the hearts and minds of Americans,

479
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 2: which the Republican candidate has to do, you do it

480
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:54,840
Speaker 2: with issues that matter to them. Crime's going to be

481
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:58,040
Speaker 2: first and foremost. I'll see you back same time tomorrow.
