1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:09,040 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in Election Day twenty twenty one, 3 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 1: and wherever you are across this great nation, I hope 4 00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:17,800 Speaker 1: that you are going out and exercising your franchise. Many 5 00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: of us I imagine who listened to the show, certainly 6 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 1: Buck and I will be kicking back tonight, put our 7 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,239 Speaker 1: feet up, watch the results come in. Buck, how do 8 00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 1: you watch the results come in on election night? Like, 9 00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,720 Speaker 1: what's your preferred I know this is not the midterms, 10 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:34,159 Speaker 1: is not the presidential election. It's a little bit different. 11 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:37,559 Speaker 1: But what's your preferred way to watch election results come in? 12 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: Do you look at the phone? Do you have a 13 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: particular website that you refreshed? Like, what's your play? I 14 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,920 Speaker 1: mean I generally kick back in my Tommy John loungeware 15 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:49,080 Speaker 1: while finishing the paperwork on my American Financing mortgage, and 16 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: then I take a moment to pull the weighted blanket 17 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: from an uncert my pillow. Oh no, I'll have Fox 18 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: News on, although I will say on election night, and 19 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,880 Speaker 1: this this is a pro tip for everybody. It's a 20 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: fun thing to do for those of you out there. 21 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: If you could have a sense of humor about it. 22 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: If it's gonna make you fly into a rage, obviously 23 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 1: don't do us. But as the results come in, especially 24 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: let's say, if young Kid is doing really well, flip 25 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: to see and then an MSNBC just to see like 26 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:19,039 Speaker 1: the blood drained from their faces as they face the 27 00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 1: prospect of a sad night, and then watching the hysterical 28 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 1: political analysis. If Yunkin wins this one, I can't guarantee 29 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: the same way I could the last prediction about how 30 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: they'll say challenging elections as patriotic. If they challenge the election, 31 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: that's for sure us. But if Junkin does end up 32 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: winning Clay, they're gonna say that this was somehow like 33 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: a win for the insurrection and white nationalists. That there 34 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: will be people on major news network saying that, like 35 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: Luna yes, and they will say, well, this further solidifies 36 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: Donald Trump's stronghold of the Republican Party. That will be 37 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: an argument because they will immediately try to trump ify 38 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: whatever election results come out in twenty twenty one. And honestly, 39 00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: to me, what is fascinating about the Young Can campaign? 40 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: And you tell me if you agree with this analysis 41 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: Junkin has managed to both simultaneously get the Trump voters 42 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: motivated to come out and support him without having to 43 00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: pledge undying loyalty to Donald Trump. And so what I 44 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,920 Speaker 1: mean by that is people want to know that you're 45 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 1: in the Trump camp, but they also want you to 46 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: be independent in some way. Does that make sense because 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: when it's a statewide election, the governor is ultimately the 48 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,360 Speaker 1: chief executive of the state, understanding, Hey, I'm a Trump supporter. 49 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: I think Trump should have won in twenty twenty. That's 50 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: where both of us are. But then Glenn Young Cain 51 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: as the governor, has been able to take the next step, 52 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 1: which is I support Trump, but I'm going to be 53 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 1: the governor of Virginia. And that's different than being a 54 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: representative or a senator, where you're theoretically trying to execute 55 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: the Trump agenda, as it were. Going back to political basics, 56 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: what do people care about? Who will be your constituents, 57 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: what are the challenges they face? Why are they upset 58 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,960 Speaker 1: about schools? What do they think about where the economy 59 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: is right now? What do they think about you know, 60 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: those the issues that actually are mobilizing people in Virginia 61 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 1: right now. On young Kin's behalf the reason he's doing 62 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: so much better than people thought. I mean, if you 63 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: look at the polls, it's just been you know, the 64 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: delta he's hit is just in the last few weeks. 65 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 1: Before that, I'm in the beginning. As he said, he 66 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 1: had like a two percent name recognition, which was basically 67 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: a zero percent name recognition in the state of Virginia. 68 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 1: Guy's a total unknown and politically, he was the CEO 69 00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 1: of the Carlisle Group, which is no small thing. I'll 70 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: point that out. And he's apparently six foot seven by 71 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 1: the way, he played basketball at Rice. Is my understanding. Yeah, 72 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: I mean he's a guy who could probably dunk. I'm 73 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,440 Speaker 1: just gonna say it, and I don't know if he 74 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,720 Speaker 1: still can, but we could ask him and Clay here 75 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: he is pointing out, for example, that this is this 76 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: race is a rallying cry for the GOP. Last night 77 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 1: we had a rally in Loudon County. I think I 78 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 1: think all of Loudon County was there last night because 79 00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: this is where the real issues around education and parents 80 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: writes to be engaged in their kids lives have become 81 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: the real rallying cry across Virginia. And it's no longer 82 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,120 Speaker 1: Republicans against Democrats. It's parents from all political prospectives, from 83 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,440 Speaker 1: all walks of life coming together and standing up for 84 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: their children. And that's why I expect us to do 85 00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: well in Northern Virginia, expect us to do well in 86 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: Southwest Virginia, expect us to do well in Richmond, and 87 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 1: well in Hampton Roads. And I think we're going to 88 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 1: see a big day Clay. That's real issues, the secret sauce. 89 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,760 Speaker 1: That's what we're seeing here. Yeah, I don't think there's 90 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 1: any doubt. And ultimately what this is about. I believe 91 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 1: that twenty twenty was a mirage. And let me explain 92 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: what I mean by the thesis. Twenty twenty was a mirage. 93 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: Democrats dragged Joe Biden and Kamala Harris across the finish 94 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: line thanks to overwhelming changes in voting laws and the 95 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 1: fact that COVID was going on. But for COVID, Donald 96 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: Trump destroys Joe Biden and Hahamala Harris. And so they 97 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: used COVID what I call fear porn to motivate their base, 98 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: to terrify suburban people. And I think what has happened 99 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: is a lot of those people bought into the idea 100 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden was going to heal the rifts that 101 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 1: exist in America. I really do. I think a lot 102 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: of suburban women in particular, bought into the idea of 103 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: suburban educated white voters by and large, because that's where 104 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 1: Trump lost support. They bought into the idea, Hey, Joe 105 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 1: Biden's going to bring America back to normalcy. The problem is, 106 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: in less than a year, Joe Biden has been infinitely 107 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: worse than Donald Trump ever could have been. And what 108 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: is happening right now is there's a great deal of 109 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: buyer's remorse, and I believe many people out there are 110 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,280 Speaker 1: going to go back and look at the actual issues. 111 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: And Buck, I pulled this because this was a Wall 112 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: Street Journal NBC poll, and we talked about how underwater 113 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 1: Biden is on a lot of different issues out there. 114 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: Which party do you think will do a better job 115 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: on border security? Republicans plus twenty seven, Buck, Which party 116 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 1: would do a better job on inflation? Republicans plus twenty four. 117 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: Which party would do a better job on crime? Republicans 118 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: plus twenty two on national security Republicans plus twenty one 119 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,479 Speaker 1: On the economy, plus plus eighteen and on the very 120 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: broad category of just getting things done Republicans plus thirteen. 121 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: This is not even getting into critical race theory or 122 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 1: all the culture wars. These are bread and butter issues 123 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: at the wheelhouse of the Republican Party. This is playing 124 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: out in Virginia and nationally the narrative versus the reality. 125 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: When you were talking about the Biden promise of unity 126 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: and healing the riffs and all that, that that was narrative 127 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: that was promised. That was just words and the propaganda 128 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: machinery of the Democrat Party putting an out there in 129 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 1: a way that when people are scared and it's COVID 130 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:54,560 Speaker 1: and you know all that nice happy talk and good 131 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: old Grandpa Joe, right people, enough of them and by 132 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: the way, didn't have to be ally a lot, didn't 133 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: I didn't have to be a lot. Enough of them 134 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: bought that. That Now you have, you know, President, you know, 135 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: where's my pants? Get me a blanket? I mean, you 136 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: know this is this is the guy who's running the 137 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: country because of that narrative. But even in Virginia, you've 138 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: got Terry mccauliffe, and you can tell this guy it's 139 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 1: just the old talking points the old Democrat talking points. 140 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 1: Oh there's all this racism and Republicans. Oh, he's putting 141 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: Randy Weingarten, who is been worse for children and schools 142 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: than anyone else independential of all time, the single most ruthless, 143 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 1: selfish for adults at the expense of children bureaucrat in 144 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 1: living memory. I mean, I can't think of anybody else. 145 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: He puts her forward at the very closing moment of 146 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: his campaign because he's relying on the Democrat apparatus and 147 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,840 Speaker 1: the narrative that it brings. Glenn Youngkin is saying what 148 00:07:45,880 --> 00:07:47,559 Speaker 1: can I do? What can we do to make things better? 149 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: He was talking last night Clay at his rally about 150 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 1: making the DMV a better experience, which I know it 151 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: might sound at people like, oh, how does that polar test? 152 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: That's the kind of stuff what anybody who's ever stood 153 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: in line at the DMV it polls? Well, right, that's 154 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, that's not that's not the kind of sexy 155 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: sound bite stuff you're going to see clipped all over 156 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: cable news. But this is actually why we elect people 157 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 1: to make things that they have to run. They should 158 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: do less than they do a lot of times. But 159 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: the aspects of government they have to run to do 160 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: it well and to if they are going to tackle 161 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 1: a problem to fix it, what problems has Terry mcculliff tackled, 162 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: And more to the point, what problems has the Biden 163 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: administration tackled when in reality we already see again narrative 164 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: versus reality, they have made everything worse. Everything's actually gotten worse. 165 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: And this has to do with the toxicity I would 166 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: say of the Democratic brand overall, which effectively boils down 167 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,720 Speaker 1: to everything is racist, because the Democratic Party is so 168 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: desperate to get black turn out that they're only the 169 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: only thing they go to buck is everything is racist. 170 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: That's Terry mcculliff's closing argument is everything Republicans are trying 171 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:52,679 Speaker 1: to do as racist. And this is significant because one 172 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: the country is becoming more diverse, so just going after 173 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 1: black voters doesn't work. And I think this is why 174 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 1: we saw Hispanic and Asia and voters break for Trump 175 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: in twenty and also Hispanic also Black voters. But I 176 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: think you're starting to see a recognition, a dawning of 177 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 1: an anti woke culture among black, Hispanic and Asian people 178 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: for a variety of different reasons, where that the Republican 179 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: Party is racist. Accusation doesn't motivate voters like it used to, 180 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: and Terry mcculiffe is still trying to play the same 181 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 1: old hits that have worked historically, and they just don't 182 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: motivate the same way. One of the things that Trump 183 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: brought to the table that really was motivating in the 184 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 1: early days of the twenty sixteen campaign for him and 185 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: even among other Republicans, set him apart was he would 186 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: speak about politically correct insanity. Basically, he would punch it 187 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: right in the nose, so to speak. He would actually 188 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: take that on. Really. Wokeness is a kind of cult, yes, 189 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: and it can bring people a sense of community, belonging 190 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 1: and safety within the cult. Right. I mean, of course, 191 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:58,839 Speaker 1: there are all these costs that are being borne by 192 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: those by willing who are joining this thing. Right, this 193 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:04,240 Speaker 1: is the same that it actually is with cults. I've 194 00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: read up on some studies and I find the kind 195 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,720 Speaker 1: of fascinating actually mostly just watch documentaries about them. What 196 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,080 Speaker 1: same idea and it's and what you see here is 197 00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: that now people who are inside the woll cult realize, oh, 198 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna like it's just a matter of time before 199 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: they ruin me too. And I'm also giving up a 200 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: lot to be here. I'm giving up freedom and creativity 201 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,560 Speaker 1: and decency and humanity. I'm giving up all of these 202 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 1: things to be a part of this left wing ideological 203 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: echo chamber that is pulling America apart. And that is 204 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: just ugly and destructive. I mean, when you see the 205 00:10:37,320 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: fact that there are more celebrities, you know, you know, 206 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: I want to keep talking about this. I know it's 207 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: it's in the sports realm, but the fact that the 208 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:47,199 Speaker 1: Colin Kaeperneck Netflix special where he's explicitly comparing the the 209 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 1: NFL combine to a slave auction, I mean that is 210 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:56,079 Speaker 1: the ugliest kind of racial demagoguery you could come across 211 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,599 Speaker 1: anywhere in contemporary America right now. Yes, and this is 212 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,880 Speaker 1: from Flix. And the fact that people aren't just appalled 213 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: and there doesn't show everybody what a fraud this guy is, 214 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 1: what a preposterous I want to say, joke, but a 215 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:16,840 Speaker 1: real bad dude, A bad dude, a negative for the country. 216 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: And this is where we are. And people in Virginia 217 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: are saying, you know, they keep getting told Clay, Oh, 218 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:26,559 Speaker 1: they're not teaching CRT poisonous racial demagoguery to our kids. 219 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,520 Speaker 1: And then people hat tip Chris Rufo for really being 220 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: a leader of the truth Brigade here, hat tip, hat 221 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: tip to him. They keep finding the teaching materials and 222 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,560 Speaker 1: that's exactly what they're teaching kids. So yeah, parents are 223 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: gonna get upset about that they are. And it's not 224 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: just white parents, because they're going to try to say, oh, 225 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: this is a white lash show, this is racism. Oh, 226 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 1: this is what happens. You know, it's white, Black, Asian 227 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: and Hispanic parents. And this is to me, the integral 228 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: argument that has to be made here is everyone with 229 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,319 Speaker 1: a functional brain hates politically correct culture. No one wants 230 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: to get fired because of a Facebook post that they 231 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: put up, or a Twitter poll or whatever they might 232 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: put out. And even more so, Buck, no one wants 233 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: to be their kids judged by these mobs. Right. You 234 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: don't want fourteen and fifteen year old kids in a 235 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: position where suddenly they say something on social media. And 236 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: I just got a good email, heard your comment about 237 00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 1: the mom Brigade. I grew up in the South, and 238 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: there's a saying that a lot of people out there 239 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: are gonna know. You don't get between a Mama bear 240 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 1: and her cubs. It sure looks like the Democrats have 241 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: pitched camp squarely between the nation's mama bears and their cubs. 242 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: All I'll say is duck suckers. And I think that 243 00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: could be the underlying premise of what's happening in Virginia 244 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: right now. The Democratic Party and Terry mccauliffe has found 245 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,480 Speaker 1: itself between the Mama bear and her cubs, and that 246 00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 1: ain't a safe place to be. And I think they're 247 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: gonna get whipped because of it. I speaking of political 248 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: correctness and a lot have a sense of humor. Clay, 249 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: I want to I want to bring us back here 250 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,439 Speaker 1: to second in a second to the opposition. The opposition 251 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: to Let's go Brandon is now is actually becoming my 252 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: favorite part. I love the general spirit of the chant, 253 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: but now the freak out in response to it. We 254 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 1: got to dive into some of that. We come back. 255 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,959 Speaker 1: It's amazing. It's about the children. You can't say this 256 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 1: in front of children. Mike Lindell, Folks, he's inventor my pillow. 257 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: I was just talking before about how I do just 258 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 1: chill out all day and go to sleep at night 259 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:29,679 Speaker 1: on my pillow.

Welcome back in 288 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 1: the Clay Travison, Buck Sex and show Buck theory for you. 289 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: You were talking about wokeness being a religion. I think actually, 290 00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 1: but yeah, recult is a good analogy too. It rots 291 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 1: the brain, and if you embrace wokeness too much, you 292 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,600 Speaker 1: end up losing touch with all reality. And I think 293 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: that's what's happened with Colin Kaepernick. We played a clip 294 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 1: was it yesterday? I think of Colin Kaepernick saying the 295 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: NFL was the equivalent of slavery. The NFL combine because 296 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: they you know, you get your picture taken with your 297 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,840 Speaker 1: shirt off, and they figure out how much you can 298 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: bench press. And there's a lot of not surprisingly physical 299 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: details embodied in being a football player. And he's got 300 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:27,640 Speaker 1: a new Netflix special. He's made tens of millions of 301 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: dollars from Nike and Netflix by arguing that America is 302 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: an awful place and he's been begging for an opportunity 303 00:15:33,400 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: to play in the NFL, which doesn't even make any 304 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: sense because he's saying that you're a slave if you 305 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: play in the NFL, so he's actually begging to be 306 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: a slave again. Like it, none of it adds up. 307 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: His brain is broken, and he now is going I 308 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: couldn't believe this when I watched it. He now Buck 309 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:55,240 Speaker 1: is going after Carlton from The Fresh Prince and Steve 310 00:15:55,440 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 1: Urkel from Family Matters. For those of you out there 311 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 1: who don't remember these shows, these are like will House 312 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:03,240 Speaker 1: shows for you and me boch, but these were sitcoms 313 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 1: that aired in the early nineties. Will Smith made him 314 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 1: a star. He was at the time a musician, but 315 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 1: he did The Fresh Prince of bel Air and UH. 316 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: Family Matters was a part of I think tgif wasn't 317 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:19,520 Speaker 1: and a full house like Universe and everything else. Dad 318 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: was the cop from Dieharts right and Uh, and he 319 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: he believed I believe he actually was casting that role 320 00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: in part because die Hard as a cop made him 321 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: such a beloved and famous character, that's right. And his 322 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: mister Winslow I think was his name, Carl Winslow. I 323 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: wretch that show all the time. Yes, I love that show. 324 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: So lots of you out there listening to us right 325 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: now probably are familiar with these two shows. Well. Carlton 326 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 1: was the cousin of Will Smith, who was the cooler 327 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: member of the cast. The premise of The Fresh Prince 328 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: of bel Air was Will Smith's character grew up in 329 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: a rough neighborhood in Philadelphia. He was misbehaving, so his 330 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: family shipped him across the country to live in bel Air, California. 331 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 1: Carlton is the son of mister Banks, who is I 332 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 1: think a successful lawyer. I think he was a judge. Judge. 333 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: Will Smith was West Philadelphia born and raised and on 334 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: a playground. I believe he spent most of his days 335 00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 1: chilling out, Maxon relaxing all cool. That's where Will Smith was. 336 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,199 Speaker 1: We could probably do the whole theme song there. What 337 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 1: percentage of our audience do you think watched The Fresh 338 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:30,159 Speaker 1: Prince of bel Air and or Family Matters twenty Maybe? No, 339 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 1: it's a generational thing, right, I don't know. I mean 340 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: it's you know, you have to be somebody who was 341 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 1: like an early teen mid teen in the nineties. So yes, 342 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 1: you know, that's still when people would sit around and 343 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: watch television together, right, like you had family television viewing. Erkele, 344 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: the character played by Jalil White. Urkel became almost more 345 00:17:50,560 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: of a cultural phenomenon. People go Carlton pretty well too. Obviously, 346 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: Will Smith became one of the biggest biggest movie stars periods. 347 00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: Also one of the biggest African American we stars you know, 348 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: of all time. But you know, the whole Urkel character character, 349 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 1: Urkle character became a thing that people knew who didn't 350 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: even know the show. You know, they just, oh, yeah, 351 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:14,399 Speaker 1: he's like Urkle. He was kind of the ultimate lovable nerd. 352 00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I was a big Ercle fan for whatever 353 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:21,360 Speaker 1: it's worth. Yes, all right, So Colin Kaepernick furious at 354 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,080 Speaker 1: the popularity of Carlton on The Fresh Prince of bel 355 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,919 Speaker 1: Air and Steve Erkle. This is a Netflix documentary. By 356 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: the way, everybody was up in arms over the Dave 357 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: Chappelle comedy special. The amount of stupidity and idiocy that 358 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 1: has been distributed already. In this Colin Kaepernick Show, which 359 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: almost no one in the woke universe cares about it all. 360 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 1: Just listen to this as Colin Kaepernick takes aim with 361 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: nineteen nineties TV sitcom characters and their roles. Oh it 362 00:18:55,480 --> 00:19:00,199 Speaker 1: was quite a preamble. I think we got it. Some 363 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: very popular TV shows star black people. These shows share 364 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:09,080 Speaker 1: archetypal black characters include his social outcasts who assembilate or 365 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: perform like Carlton Banks, Steve Burke. White people love these 366 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: dudes everything from the way they dress, way they talk, 367 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 1: even the way they dance. It's also threatened. These characters 368 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,159 Speaker 1: have come to be known by the term acceptable negro. 369 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:28,760 Speaker 1: The acceptable negro is a black character who would have 370 00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:32,479 Speaker 1: his white characteristics, who makes white people feel comfortable. The 371 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 1: acceptable negro is a white man's creation. The thing is, 372 00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:39,679 Speaker 1: white people don't get to design who's acceptable with us. 373 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: So Colin Kaepernick is his analysis is idiotic, and you 374 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: and I are obviously going to explain why on multiple levels. 375 00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 1: But for one thing, the Fresh Prince of bel Air 376 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: Will Smith is not the I mean, he's basically saying 377 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 1: that that the ercle character and Carlton have white characteristics 378 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: and therefore those are side characters in those shows. The 379 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 1: lead character that is beloved that turned him into a superstar, 380 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: and the fresh prince is Will Smith, who is a 381 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: you know, a rapper, you know, young, aspiring, you know, 382 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 1: black guy who's make his way in America. He's not 383 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 1: he doesn't have these characteristics. He's why is he going 384 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: after Erkele? And Carlton's a making sense that Erkle's a 385 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,639 Speaker 1: secondary character as well. He perhaps the most famous on 386 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: that show, to be fair, but the primary character is 387 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: Carl Winslow, who's, you know, a lovable black dad of 388 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: a family that they're all together and you know, it's 389 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: just I mean, it's a little bit of similar to 390 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 1: the Cosby Show at some level, except it's not a 391 00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 1: doctor right, what is even taught? I mean, what Colin 392 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: Kaepernick saying doesn't even make sense in the context of 393 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 1: the shows he's picking out. Not only that it presumes 394 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: that Carlton and Steve Urkel weren't also wildly popular in 395 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: the black community, which they wore, yes, yes, and still are. 396 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:03,960 Speaker 1: It is so mind numbingly stupid what he is putting 397 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:09,080 Speaker 1: out there. It's like madlibs from critical race theory that 398 00:21:09,200 --> 00:21:15,119 Speaker 1: hasn't even been fully analyzed by critical race theorist. And 399 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: let's remember Colin Kaepernick is half white and was raised 400 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:24,880 Speaker 1: by a white family. How is he trying to become 401 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: some sort of wild revolutionary and deciding what is and 402 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: what is not acceptable for black people? First of all, 403 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: I reject the premise of the idea that anything is 404 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 1: acceptable or unacceptable based on race right of an overall group, 405 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,120 Speaker 1: because what should be is individuals, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic 406 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: decide what they like for better or worse, and consume 407 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: it right. The idea that an entire culture finds something 408 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:59,880 Speaker 1: acceptable or unacceptable is crazy. But Carlton helped to make 409 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 1: The Fresh Prince a really popular show, as did Steve Urkel. 410 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 1: I went to school with a ton of kids of 411 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: all races who loved both those shows, and what it 412 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 1: represented was entertainment and a wide variety. Almost all of 413 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,479 Speaker 1: the stars were black on those shows, and it had 414 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: a wide variety of different Black perspectives. A nerd and 415 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: awkward son like are reflected in all families. And so 416 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: this stupidity from Colin Kaepernick, I don't even know if buck, 417 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: if there's anybody still left out there defending him, because 418 00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:38,680 Speaker 1: when I used to attack Colin Kaepernick's arguments and say, look, 419 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: this guy is not a good voice for anything in 420 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: the world. There'd be a lot of Blue Check Brigade 421 00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: members who would say, what are you talking about, Clay Travis? 422 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 1: You're a racist? How dare you? No? This guy's an imbecile. 423 00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:50,200 Speaker 1: And the fact that anyone ever considered him to be 424 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:53,919 Speaker 1: a voice for anything other than dividing and destroying this 425 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 1: country as a fundamental failure of everyone who ever worked 426 00:22:56,680 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: in sports media. It's the whole Kaepernick phenomenon as a scam. 427 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: And I would even go beyond that. You know, do 428 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: you know Jack Brewer, He's an NFL player, he's an 429 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 1: NFL captain. Talked to him yesterday and I interviewed him 430 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: and talked to him about this subject, and he said, 431 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:15,000 Speaker 1: we have to remember that while a lot of folks 432 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,000 Speaker 1: will hear this, and they'll they'll hear you and me 433 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 1: talking about this and say, well, of course, of course, 434 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: the comparison of a slave auction to the NFL combine 435 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 1: is intellectually indefensible and morally reprehensible. Right, I mean, of 436 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 1: course that's true. But Jack, who is an African American, 437 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:36,439 Speaker 1: a former NFL player himself said, Look, a lot of 438 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 1: young black guys are gonna hear this. They're gonna hear Kaepernick, 439 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: and they're actually gonna take it to heart and then 440 00:23:42,560 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: and it will It will create a bitterness and a 441 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: resentment and a misunderstanding of the society around them and 442 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: issues that they will then play. He's like, so, Jack 443 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: Brewer was telling me, even though a lot of folks 444 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: maybe can see Kaepernick for who he really is now, 445 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 1: he still has a constituency and it's damaging. He is 446 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 1: pouring poison in the ears and showing people things on 447 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: screen that are detrimental to them. These are lies he 448 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: is peddling. These are reprehensible things that he is trying 449 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,199 Speaker 1: to push on, particularly on young minds, and it's just 450 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 1: really troubling. The media's embrace of Kaepernick, though, has always 451 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 1: been disgusting by the way, because he's anti He was 452 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: anti cop for his own purposes. That's what actually it was. 453 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:30,120 Speaker 1: Every cop listening to this nose he played this game 454 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 1: of oh, it's about semic cops or modern day slave 455 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: catcher buck he said, Oh, it's it's about systemic and no, no, no, 456 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:39,360 Speaker 1: that's what they always say. Something that's just too stupid. 457 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: The leftists, the you know, anti cop left, they always 458 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: say something that's too stupid, and then they try to 459 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: do this, Oh it's about systemic earth. They start muttering 460 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: something about, you know, balancing historical injustice, and then he go, okay, no, sorry, 461 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: anti cop all right, Clayton.

Over the 499 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: course of the pandemic. There is that feeling of arriving 500 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,600 Speaker 1: if you're in a lockdown blue state or a state 501 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 1: that has been gone gone mad with COVID mania vaccine mandates, 502 00:26:54,920 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 1: so California, New York, New Jersey.

It's not perfect. 506 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:08,680 Speaker 1: Miami still has some mask mandates, although I think maybe 507 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:09,960 Speaker 1: they've gotten rid of those. I haven't been down in 508 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: a little while, but we'll talk to him at a moment. 509 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: I just I got it for a second here because 510 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not letting it go with all the climate 511 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: change stuff, Clay, I just pretend it doesn't See, this 512 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: is a thing I want to do the same thing, 513 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: Like I want to just just completely act like these 514 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: are people. They're they're crazy, you know, They're they're like 515 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 1: the cults again, cults in parks and recreation. The reasonable 516 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: lists who believe the world's going to end every year, 517 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,760 Speaker 1: and every year at the last second they're like, no, 518 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 1: the you know, the special alien communication device tells us 519 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 1: next year the world where end, and like this is 520 00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 1: what they do that they gather together and it's like 521 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: they have a party for the end of the world. 522 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: That's a little bit like the climate change people, except 523 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: they want to ruin the global economy and run your 524 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 1: life and harass you endlessly. Right, So I don't want 525 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 1: to do the unilateral surrender thing of letting them just 526 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: be crazy, because I mean, Biden's involved in this stuff, folks. Yeah, 527 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,520 Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos is showing up in his private jet. Leo 528 00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: DiCaprio did fly commercial a lot of press on that one, gee, Leo. 529 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: But here is if you want to get a sense 530 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 1: of this stuff. Um, you know Greta Thunberg, who is 531 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: a Thunberg in my side, Um, she is constantly annoying me. 532 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 1: She is out there saying stuff like hold on a second, 533 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: like this, we say, no more blah blah blah, no 534 00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:37,000 Speaker 1: more exploitation of people and nature and the planets. No 535 00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: more exploitation, no more blah blah blah, no no whatever 536 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 1: they're doing inside there. We're seeking time of it and 537 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna make the change whether they like it or not. Okay, 538 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 1: I just want to be clear here, Clay, she's at 539 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 1: she's at this Glasgow, you know COP twenty six or whatever, 540 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: because Conference of Parties that's what COP stands for. There's 541 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 1: big climate change thing. They're gonna regulate methane now, which 542 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: is cal farts, as well as other things. And I'm 543 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: I believe that she could come out and she kind 544 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:10,479 Speaker 1: of did a little bit there. She's an eighty year 545 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: old knows nothing and adults cheer for her and thinks 546 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: she's saving the world. She could come out and just 547 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 1: go blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. I mean 548 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 1: literally do that, and people would think that she was 549 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:24,680 Speaker 1: a genius because she is a little child God to them. 550 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter what she says. She is the climate 551 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 1: change idol that they are worshiping. It is absurd. It's 552 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: funny also that she's angry at all the people at 553 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 1: the Climate Change complace, like they already she isn't even 554 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 1: being in any way endorsed by them, right like she's 555 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: going after them, which is why I think the whole 556 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: thing is just absurd. It's a little bit like the 557 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 1: woke culture. You aren't in favor of climate change being 558 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:57,680 Speaker 1: addressed ever enough, right, there's no moderation when you are 559 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 1: an absolutist. These people have bought into the ey idea 560 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:02,959 Speaker 1: that the world is going to end as we know 561 00:30:03,040 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: it in like the next decade because of climate change. 562 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 1: I think they're wrong, and I'm pretty comfortable they're wrong. 563 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm building the place on the beach. If 564 00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:13,080 Speaker 1: I thought that if I thought in my lifetime that 565 00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: I wasn't going to be able to have be able 566 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: to go to the beach, I wouldn't be building the 567 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 1: house there. Narrative versus realities clay. When these rich libs 568 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 1: will offer me a I'd even take a fifty percent 569 00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: discount on one of their beach front you know, in 570 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 1: Malibu for example, which is unfortunately curtly democrat dominates, one 571 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: of the more beautiful places in America. Though, just saying 572 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: there are people of houses right on the beach, and 573 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 1: they get really close to the water. When they want 574 00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 1: to give me a fifty percent discount and tell me there, 575 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: you know, however, many millions of dollars a beach house 576 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: at fifty percent off, then I'll believe they're serious about 577 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: climate change until these are fairly smart people spending a 578 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: lot of money on beachfront homes, all of whom are 579 00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: telling you that climate change is going to destroy the world, 580 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,080 Speaker 1: yet not actually making the change in their own life 581 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 1: that would reflect they truly believe that's series, because if 582 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 1: they did, they wouldn't be spending twenty million dollars on 583 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: beachfront mansions in Malibu. You know. It's also really fun 584 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 1: is when they at these conferences, there's inevitably this moment 585 00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 1: when they realize because someone will come forward and say, hey, guys, 586 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 1: hold on a second, even if we do all these 587 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: because it's always about you know company, I mean, these 588 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 1: these countries pledging, we pledged to the pledges and worth squat. 589 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 1: We all know that, but we pledged to do all 590 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 1: this emission. And they're all sitting there worshiping little Gretta. 591 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: But she's going blah blah blah blah blah f bomb 592 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,360 Speaker 1: blah blah, like like this is somehow intelligent. Even if 593 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: they do all the things they say they're going to 594 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: do without China's acquiescence, entirely, and without India going on 595 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: board entirely, we're gonna hit all these numbers they say 596 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: brings about the extinction of humanity no matter what, So 597 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: what are we even doing? It doesn't make any sense, 598 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,959 Speaker 1: it's all it's it's a globalist religion for people who 599 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: think they're too smart for religion. It's it's the whole 600 00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: thing is absurd and uh and I don't know what 601 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,000 Speaker 1: else to say about it. But you know, speaking of actually, 602 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: I got no transition there. Why don't you tell them 603 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,000 Speaker 1: what's up next? Because I next you're still fired up. 604 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:03,200 Speaker 1: I flopped on the transition. We got Ronda Santis, who 605 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 1: has a lot of beach front property all over the 606 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 1: state of Florida, and he's got a lot of beachfront 607 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: property in the minds of the insanely woke and the 608 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: Fauciites will find out from him what's going on with 609 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,320 Speaker 1: the numbers in the state of Florida and why it 610 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: was so important for him to fight back against mask 611 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: mandates and also vaccine mandates. That is what you calls 612 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 1: picking up the fumble and high stepping it into the 613 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: end zone. Well done, sir, Ron Santons. Next you're listening 614 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: to Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Fund the EIB Network. 615 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 1: Welcome to the third hour of the Clay Travis end 616 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. This is buck An NYC. Clay out 617 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: in Nashville, Tennessee, And as promised, we have with us 618 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: right now the governor of Florida, Governor Ronda Santis. So, Governor, 619 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 1: thank you for being with us. We appreciate it. Good afternoon. 620 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 1: Thanks for having me. We've got so many things to 621 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 1: ask you. We'll just jump right in with the special session, Governor, 622 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 1: because I'm here in New York and we are in 623 00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:21,520 Speaker 1: the midst of a showdown between New York City government 624 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,160 Speaker 1: and public sector workers NYPD and f dn Y, most 625 00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 1: notably fire and police who don't want to get the shot. 626 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: Now that's public sector, but there's also obviously private sector. Man, 627 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: it's going into effect. You and Florida are calling together 628 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 1: a special legislative session coming up here. What do you 629 00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 1: hope to accomplish and why are you doing this in Florida. 630 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: We want you to be able to work and earn 631 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: a living without regards to these jabs. This job should 632 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:50,920 Speaker 1: not condition whether or not you're able to continue with employment. 633 00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:54,360 Speaker 1: I think it's a personal decision, and certainly for the 634 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 1: public sector workers like cops and firefighters who've been out 635 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: for the whole time in exposing themselves if need be, 636 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 1: most of them have had COVID and recovered by now. 637 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 1: But even with the private sector employees, it's very, very 638 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 1: important that they be given these protections as well. Look, 639 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: I'm not a mandate guy generally, but this vaccine is 640 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: not preventing transmission. It's not preventing infection that basically the 641 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:24,279 Speaker 1: benefit has been on reducing severity, which is great. But 642 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: the idea that you're going to mandate this and that's 643 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: going to make a big difference in terms of this, 644 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 1: it's just not accurate. So it's anti science. They don't 645 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: recognize natural immunity, they don't honor the traditional religious exemptions 646 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: that most people have been honoring with other vaccines, and 647 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,080 Speaker 1: so we need to make sure people are able to 648 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 1: keep their jobs, and so we're going to look to 649 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: protect both private and public sector workers. Governor to Santas, 650 00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: this is Clay. First of all, thanks for everything that 651 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: you've done, because Buck and I, as you know, have 652 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,959 Speaker 1: wanted to pull our hair out as we have seen 653 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 1: so many idiot politicians making idiot choice after idiot choice, 654 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:03,320 Speaker 1: And what you guys have done and been so revolutionary 655 00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 1: is just look at the data and make rational choices. 656 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 1: And I want to share. I'm sure you've got way 657 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 1: better access to data than I do, but I'm looking 658 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 1: right now at the New York Times database for overall 659 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: COVID infection rates. You have in the state of Florida, 660 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: the absolute lowest COVID rate of infection anywhere in the country. 661 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:24,080 Speaker 1: States like California that have been praised throughout the Heavens 662 00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: nearly triple the rate that you have. New York way higher, 663 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 1: over double the rate that you have. There's been almost 664 00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: no media coverage of the declining number of cases in Florida, 665 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 1: despite no mask mandate, no COVID vaccine mandate. How unfair 666 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 1: is that to the American public, The way that the 667 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,160 Speaker 1: media has covered your state and your administration. Well, I 668 00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 1: think that's what's to be expected. I mean, we have 669 00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: a very partisan, fact free corporate press in this country, 670 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 1: and when Donald Trump was president, every single COVID infection 671 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: was his fault. Since Biden has taken over, they say 672 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: that they never blamed by it and they never hold 673 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,000 Speaker 1: them accountable for anything, even though he campaign thing he 674 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: would actually shut down the virus, So that's what they're 675 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,640 Speaker 1: going to do. They use it to attack their political opponents, 676 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: and then they're silent when you do see outbreaks in 677 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 1: parts of the country where they like the politicians. But 678 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:21,799 Speaker 1: I think most people see through this by now. I 679 00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 1: think that they understand that this is something that follows 680 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,600 Speaker 1: a regional and seasonal pattern. The South has more of 681 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: a summer season, so now we're on the back end 682 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:35,399 Speaker 1: of that. Other places will have peaks in the north 683 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: in the winter. So the question is is are you 684 00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 1: going to destroy your society to try to quote stop 685 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: something that these restrictions are not going to stop. And 686 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: so our view is you protect people's right to work, 687 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 1: their freedoms, people's businesses, and then do whatever you can 688 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: to help folks with COVID and we did. What we 689 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 1: found in the summer was people didn't have access or 690 00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 1: they didn't know about the early treatment, even though there's 691 00:36:59,360 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 1: early treatment available. So we launched a bunch of monoclonal 692 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 1: antibody sites, raised awareness, and that helped contribute to a 693 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 1: stunning collapse in our hospital census. I think we're on 694 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 1: like day seventy seventy straight days with a declining hospital census, 695 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: and people were able to get this and it basically 696 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: helped them get over it. And so we've just tried 697 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: to take a science based approach, but certainly we have 698 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,720 Speaker 1: jettison a fear based approach, and we do not govern 699 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:30,200 Speaker 1: based on hysteria. We're speaking of Governor rom DeSantis of Florida. 700 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: Governor's back. I want to ask you about the law 701 00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,440 Speaker 1: enforcement issue if I can, which ties into COVID. Obviously, 702 00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: you have right now thousands of NYPD officers on unpaid 703 00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 1: leave here in New York, similar situation played out. We 704 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:44,760 Speaker 1: have people listening all across the country in their cities 705 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: where career law enforcement officers lost their jobs. You got 706 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,680 Speaker 1: some attention for your state recently by or there was 707 00:37:50,680 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 1: attention on your state for this five thousand dollar signing 708 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,879 Speaker 1: bonus that's supposed to be I believe appropriated and then 709 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:01,120 Speaker 1: next year could be paid. But Florida doing what has 710 00:38:01,120 --> 00:38:04,160 Speaker 1: it been doing to recruit law enforcement officers who are 711 00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,200 Speaker 1: dissatisfied for a number of reasons with how they're being 712 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,360 Speaker 1: treated for political reasons across the country and also, what 713 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: has Florida been doing overall to try to turn the 714 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: trend in the other direction for what has been a 715 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: national crime wave over the last eighteen months. Well, first 716 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,960 Speaker 1: of all, summer of twenty twenty, blmn t fariots, I 717 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,719 Speaker 1: called out the National Guard. I backed law enforcement one 718 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 1: hundred percent. I never bought in to the anti law 719 00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 1: enforcement nonsense. And so people knew in Florida that I 720 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 1: had their back and they appreciated that. But will be 721 00:38:35,080 --> 00:38:38,399 Speaker 1: seen over the last year, budgets have been slashed, the 722 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: community hasn't provided support for officers in place like Seattle, 723 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 1: in Portland and Minneapolis, in the whole nine yards of 724 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:47,759 Speaker 1: all these different cities. And so we think we have 725 00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:51,320 Speaker 1: a historic opportunity in Florida to look around the country, 726 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 1: see how low morale is and say, you know what, 727 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:56,400 Speaker 1: have you come to Florida. You'll have a better quality 728 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 1: of life, which is important, but you're going to be 729 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 1: treated with respect, You're going to be valued here because 730 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: we're a law and order state. And in order to 731 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 1: help facilitate very experienced and talented people to relocate to Florida, 732 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: we are going to be offering a five thousand dollars 733 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: signing bonus. Now that will apply anyone outside the state 734 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 1: that has experience that comes and moves. It'll also actually 735 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 1: apply to some of our young people here in Florida 736 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,919 Speaker 1: who choose law enforcement as a career because I think 737 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 1: the way these officers have been put through the ringer, 738 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: with the corporate press always being demonized, it's not something 739 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: that as many people think is worth doing. And you 740 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: can understand that. So we want to make sure that 741 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 1: our folks who have grown up here in Florida that 742 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 1: are talented also will consider it. So I think, well, 743 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: we're already one of the top law enforcement states, but 744 00:39:40,840 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: I can tell you the chatter across this country for 745 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,600 Speaker 1: folks that are dissatisfied with how they're being treated, and 746 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,560 Speaker 1: as you said, for a number of reasons. I mean, 747 00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: I think it's a terrible that you'd fire a police 748 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,080 Speaker 1: officer over a vaccine mandate. These people have been out 749 00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 1: on the street the whole time. But there's so many 750 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,799 Speaker 1: other reasons why people are satisfied. And while morale is low, 751 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: you come to Florida, yeah, you'll get the signing bonus, 752 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:07,800 Speaker 1: and that's important. People want to be paid. But honestly, 753 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 1: it's more important as a signal to know that Florida's 754 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,880 Speaker 1: got your back, and I think we're going to have 755 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: number one in the country for law enforcement and we're 756 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 1: going to be proud of that. We're talking to Florida 757 00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: Governor Ryan de Santis. Governor, you've seen an unbelievable number 758 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,160 Speaker 1: of people moving to the state of Florida. I saw 759 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,600 Speaker 1: a viral video of Don Lemon, who's one of your 760 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 1: top critics, taking a vacation in Florida, which of course 761 00:40:32,080 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 1: was ironic not wearing a mask. Mind you, what are 762 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: you seeing about the people who are moving into Florida 763 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: and voting with their feet effectively for the freedoms as 764 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 1: you've said, an oasis of freedom in the state of Florida. 765 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 1: Right now, November twenty eighteen, I got elected governor in Florida, 766 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: there were two hundred and eighty thousand more registered Democrats 767 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 1: than Republicans in the state of Florida. As we stand 768 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:01,880 Speaker 1: here today, that number is windled to about three thousand, 769 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 1: and it very well maybe right now it takes about 770 00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 1: another week to get October's numbers. We actually very well 771 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 1: right now may have more registered Republicans and Democrats which 772 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 1: would be the first time in the history of the 773 00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 1: state of Florida that that was the case. And so 774 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: the pace that we're seeing is one that by next 775 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 1: year's gubernatorial election, we could have fifty one hundred thousand 776 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 1: more registered Republicans than Democrats, which if you'd asked, if 777 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:31,719 Speaker 1: you would have predicted that two three years ago, people 778 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 1: would have said, there's no way. By the way, are 779 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 1: you for that opportunity to run next year? You just 780 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 1: talked about maybe having more Republican voters. How excited are 781 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 1: you to get out on the campaign trail and be 782 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,280 Speaker 1: able to put your record on the line in twenty 783 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:49,920 Speaker 1: two Oh, I think it'll be. It's gonna be. It's 784 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 1: fun because when I ran in eighteen, a lot of 785 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 1: people didn't know me. I was one congressman at the 786 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 1: twenty seven in the state of twenty two million people. Well, 787 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 1: now people know, they know all the stuff that we've done, 788 00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 1: and it'll be to be able to talk more about 789 00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,240 Speaker 1: some of the things that don't even get any press attention, 790 00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,759 Speaker 1: which had been very, very significant. But I can tell 791 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,600 Speaker 1: you this, and I don't know what it's I mean. 792 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 1: I was governor for a year basically before COVID, we 793 00:42:11,920 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: did a lot of great things. People were excited with 794 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: a lot of stuff we've done. But since COVID, the 795 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,719 Speaker 1: personal connection you have with people because they look to 796 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,120 Speaker 1: me and they say, thank you for saving my job, 797 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:25,840 Speaker 1: thank you for saving my business. If it wasn't for you, 798 00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: I wouldn't had my kids in school. All these things 799 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,080 Speaker 1: that are very personal to people, and I was one 800 00:42:31,160 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 1: that was standing with them and making sure that they 801 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:38,160 Speaker 1: were protected, even when it wasn't necessarily a thing that 802 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: the media wanted to do. And so I think people 803 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: understand in Florida that when I say I'm going to 804 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 1: do something, I do it. Everything I promised I've done, 805 00:42:46,160 --> 00:42:49,680 Speaker 1: I've I've fulfilled my campaign promises from four years ago 806 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 1: or three years ago. And then if there's ever a 807 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: time where the chips are down and you need someone 808 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,120 Speaker 1: to get your back, they know I'll have their back. 809 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: One last one for your government is a big race 810 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: today Virginia between Terry mccliff and Glen Yunkin. As you 811 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 1: well know parents' involvement in their children's education, parents writes 812 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: more generally, at the center of that very hotly contested 813 00:43:11,719 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: and nationally watched political race, what are you doing in Florida. 814 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 1: What does it mean to be protecting the rights of 815 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 1: parents when it comes to the school and their kids 816 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: are getting and just more broadly, the involvements they want 817 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,200 Speaker 1: to have in their children's lives. Well, we believe in 818 00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 1: providing education, but they should not be subject to leftist indoctrination, 819 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 1: and so we banned critical race theory earlier this year. 820 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,560 Speaker 1: We're going to do something in the next legislative session 821 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:40,240 Speaker 1: to make sure parents can enforce that, to make sure 822 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: that we have a good, solid curriculum and we're not 823 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,279 Speaker 1: going down the road of treating people difference on the 824 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: basis of race. We've also done a lot to elevate 825 00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,080 Speaker 1: American civics because I think it's important that people understand 826 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 1: what this country's about. And yes, I reject the view 827 00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: of the Democrat candidate in Virginia and the teachers unions 828 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,239 Speaker 1: that say parents, you know, don't have a right to 829 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 1: be involved in what their kids are learning. In Florida, 830 00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 1: we believe parents are at the center of that and 831 00:44:07,280 --> 00:44:09,879 Speaker 1: that covers a whole host of issues, not just things 832 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,759 Speaker 1: like critical race theory. I signed a strong Parents' Bill 833 00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:14,880 Speaker 1: of Rights earlier this year. But we're going to do 834 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:19,000 Speaker 1: some more to strengthen it further, because ultimately parents know 835 00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: what's best for their kids. Governor Ronda Santista, Florida, Sir, 836 00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 1: I appreciate you make the time for us. Thanks for 837 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 1: being here. Hey care byebye. We'll come back into that 838 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,920 Speaker 1: Virginia race because it is the news of the Dangers 839 00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:34,000 Speaker 1: Cross book. We gotta win this one. I really hope, 840 00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:36,839 Speaker 1: I really hope. I'm gonna be cracking open a you know, 841 00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 1: diet creamsicle shafta later tonight, you know whatever, whatever I 842 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 1: got in the fridge something like that, So I don't 843 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 1: even know if they make that anymore. We'll come back 844 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 1: to that though in a second. How far away is 845 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 1: another market correction that messes with the value of your 846 00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: IRA account and leaves you unprotected again, protect your IRA 847 00:44:52,920 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: and your savings account by having a portion of what 848 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: you've worked hard to save with gold. Buying and owning 849 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,320 Speaker 1: gold is easier and more convenient than thanks to companies 850 00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 1: like the Oxford Gold Group. Earlier this year, I bought 851 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 1: gold from them and I had it delivered to my home. 852 00:45:06,320 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: Simple as that the security that comes from having your 853 00:45:08,640 --> 00:45:10,480 Speaker 1: own goal, that feeling you have you know it's going 854 00:45:10,560 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 1: to hold its value that's second to none. So if 855 00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,440 Speaker 1: you think buying real gold is complicated, my friends at 856 00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,359 Speaker 1: the Oxford Gold Group are who you need to call. 857 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,399 Speaker 1: They'll explain everything to you.
