1
00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom hunt. Mid terms are done,

2
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 1: the fight for begins. Democrats gained control of the House

3
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 1: of Representatives. The Republicans gained a few seats in the Senate.

4
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: This is now an all out political war, my friends.

5
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the showdown that begins now. This is

6
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission is

7
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: to decode what really matters with actionable intelligence. Magnorma stake American,

8
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: You're a great American. Again, the Buck Sexton Show begins.

9
00:00:48,560 --> 00:01:03,040
Speaker 1: An No, it was a pretty good night last night,

10
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 1: all things considered. Republicans broke with history and we're able

11
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 1: to prevent the Democrats from overrunning them. We're able to

12
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: not just keep their lead in the Senate, but at

13
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 1: a few seats to it. As I'm sure you know,

14
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,440
Speaker 1: the whole country has been well, most of the country

15
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:25,840
Speaker 1: has been thinking about this since the results came in

16
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:29,319
Speaker 1: last night. I know it's not not breaking news for you.

17
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 1: The Democrats win the House. We know that we've been

18
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: aware of that now for a number of hours. But

19
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: the implications for this are are profound, um and I

20
00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: will get into them. There's some very important breakdown of this.

21
00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:45,040
Speaker 1: We have to be together. First, why was it that

22
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: the Democrats did not have what was expected? Oh? What

23
00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: was expected? Again? That's right? A blue wave was what

24
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: Now they're saying, oh, nobody really expected that. Uh we

25
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 1: we remember, we know that there was going to be

26
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 1: a blue wave. We remember that. That's um, that was

27
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:12,359
Speaker 1: the way that this was supposed to go. And then

28
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,839
Speaker 1: last night, sure enough we had to hear this play.

29
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: Eleven Democrats did hope for a big blue wave that

30
00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: is not happening. There's no blue wave. Is it a

31
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,680
Speaker 1: blue wave? What do you want to call it? It

32
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 1: may not be a blue wave. It's a rainbow wave.

33
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: It's not a wave. It's not a wave. It is

34
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 1: not going to be that blue wave landslide. It's not

35
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: going to be a wave. This blue wave that clearly

36
00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,679
Speaker 1: does not seem to be materializing. I don't know whether

37
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 1: we won't call it a wave, but it's a blue move,

38
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: a blue ripple. You can't call it a wave if

39
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 1: you don't have a big statewide wind anywhere. How do

40
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: you call it a wave? If you don't win Florida,

41
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: How do you call it a wave if you don't

42
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 1: win Missouri? Yeah, it's not a wave. So so it

43
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: would be bad to call it one um and those

44
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 1: who were saying, well, that wasn't the expectation. Ah, we

45
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: have we have this thing called the Internet, so we

46
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 1: can actually track down what they were saying. Play sixteen.

47
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: The wave is building. The question is just how big.

48
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: We're standing on a beach looking out at the ocean

49
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 1: and we're seeing what looks like a really really really

50
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: big wave because it's going to be a democratic wave

51
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: or a democratic tsunami, a blue wave. There's a wave

52
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,280
Speaker 1: out there. Are we going to see a wave, the

53
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: wave election, a blue wave, a blue wave, the democratic wave.

54
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,560
Speaker 1: That's going to be a democratic wave, an anti Trump wave.

55
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,239
Speaker 1: There is a wave coming, the tidal wave coming. Likely

56
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: that the Democrats have. The blue wave, this blue wave

57
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 1: that has going across this country. It's like that Will

58
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: cry will blue wave in November. The blue wave is okay,

59
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 1: you get, but we get the idea. Right. They were

60
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: all saying it. They were all saying it, but it

61
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: didn't happen. Now they say they didn't say it because

62
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: if all of them were so wrong, maybe there was

63
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 1: some bias at work. Maybe there was a reason that

64
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 1: they were off in their calibrations. Maybe it's not just

65
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: that this was a surprise to them based on their analysis,

66
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: but maybe they were more hopeful than anything else that

67
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: there would be a wave um but there was not.

68
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: Now a few very important takeaways from last night. First

69
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:19,280
Speaker 1: of all, Trump is still highly effective at campaigning for

70
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: other people. It's not just the sen was the Trump election,

71
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: and we got obviously the House and the Senate, and

72
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 1: there was this moment of a revolt against the elites

73
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: and and against leftism and the left word tilt of

74
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: the country that had gone on almost unabated for eight

75
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:41,039
Speaker 1: years of the Obama administration. It wasn't just that. It

76
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,239
Speaker 1: was also that last night we find that President Trump

77
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 1: is effective, his base is still with him, there is

78
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: still hope in the agenda and that it will continue

79
00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:57,560
Speaker 1: to be implemented. And the Democrats put a tremendous amount

80
00:04:57,600 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: of money and activism and organization and celebrities and all

81
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,919
Speaker 1: this stuff into At the end of the day, this

82
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 1: is the best they could do at a time when

83
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 1: they're telling us that the country is under threat down

84
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: to its very foundations. They have been proclaiming. And those

85
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 1: of you listen to the show, no because I play

86
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,440
Speaker 1: their crazy clips on the air, that this democracy is

87
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: under threat, that Trump is undermoting our institutions, that he's

88
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 1: a racist, a misogynist, a rapist, a fascist, a Russian agent,

89
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,839
Speaker 1: all this crazy stuff, and an imbecile and should be

90
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,280
Speaker 1: removed by the twenty And they they just spew all

91
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,200
Speaker 1: this hateful nonsense and then tell us that the president

92
00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 1: is hateful. They say all of this and then turn

93
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: around and pretend that they're the ones who are being adults.

94
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,640
Speaker 1: But in that environment, this is the best they could do.

95
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,240
Speaker 1: Losing even more control of the Senate, and you know,

96
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 1: winning winning a majority, but by no means a passive,

97
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: defining majority in the House representatives. What does that tell

98
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: you about their judgment when it comes to where this

99
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: country really is. What does it tell you about their

100
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: ability to be taken seriously about the Democrat and the

101
00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 1: left right, to be thought of as real voices in

102
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 1: the national conversation that aren't just overcome with envy and

103
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: frustration and rage and delusion. All these big races we

104
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 1: were told about last night, Gillham, Abrams, O Rourke, Oh

105
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 1: my gosh, all these superstars and winning lost. They all lost.

106
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: Someone telling me, by the way, why is it that young, telegenic,

107
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 1: charismatic African American former fighter Polee John James in Michigan

108
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 1: received probably one one of the media coverage leading up

109
00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 1: the election that also young tellogenic, charismatic African American Gilham

110
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: received in Florida. Oh, that's right. One is a Republican,

111
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: the others a Democrat, a leftist at that, I mean,

112
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:16,040
Speaker 1: a real Bernie Sanders style Democrat. But as much as

113
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: they don't want to admit it, last night was a

114
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 1: wake up call for Democrats. This is going to be

115
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 1: even harder than they thought. They had to assume, whether

116
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:32,120
Speaker 1: they were willing to say so publicly or not, that

117
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:39,360
Speaker 1: the two years of Russia collusion, conspiracy mongering, the two

118
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 1: years of Trump is a white nationalist. He's speaking in

119
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: dog whistles all the time. This just unrelenting negative media coverage.

120
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 1: That that had to have changed perceptions by about people

121
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 1: who are open to new information. Right, It just you

122
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: would assume by information osmosis over a period of time,

123
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: people say, well, I mean there must be something wrong

124
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 1: with Trump, right, look at what they're saying. It's all negative,

125
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: it's all terrible. Oh no, A lot of us know

126
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,800
Speaker 1: that they are the fake news, and they are the

127
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,880
Speaker 1: enemy of truth, a phrase that you've heard probably first

128
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:20,640
Speaker 1: here on this show, and now other people have picked

129
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: up too. They are the enemy of truth. They undermine

130
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: truth and honesty and integrity and authenticity every day. And

131
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 1: in fact, I think they embrace it now because they

132
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: find it to be useful. They view themselves as in

133
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 1: an all out war against the president United States, and

134
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: so anything that is another weapon in that arsenal must

135
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: be embraced, no matter how disgraceful, no matter how damaging.

136
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,840
Speaker 1: So now I sit here and think about what we're

137
00:08:55,880 --> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 1: going to be subjected to by Democrats going forward. It

138
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 1: is going to be ugly because last night the American

139
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:11,479
Speaker 1: people and the Democrats and the leftists minds there were disappointment.

140
00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: The leftists are disappointed in America right now. They thought

141
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 1: that there would be a repudiation of Trump, and there

142
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: is no way they can say that it was a

143
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 1: repudiation of Trump. In fact, given what happens historically when

144
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 1: people just want change and the people in power that

145
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 1: have disappointed individuals who felt like they would get more

146
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 1: willing are willing to change and just want to try

147
00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: the other side. Right there's all these trends, all these

148
00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 1: dynamics that favor of the Democrats, and with that going

149
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: on to lose Senate seats in the balance and to

150
00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 1: pick up whatever it is, thirty or so seats in

151
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: the House. I mean, some of this is still there's

152
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 1: some I think there's some recounts being talked about. Some

153
00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 1: of this is still outstanding. Um, that to me is

154
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:08,440
Speaker 1: anything but some kind of huge SmackDown of Trump and

155
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: what he has done. In fact, it is really an

156
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: affirmation of the political movement that you and I have

157
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 1: been supporting now since the day Trump took office, well

158
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 1: many of you since the day Trump announced for president,

159
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:26,079
Speaker 1: and you were you were visionaries. You saw it coming

160
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,200
Speaker 1: long before many of the rest of us did. So

161
00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: last night was a good defensive maneuver at a time

162
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,840
Speaker 1: when the Democrats were inevitably going to be on offense.

163
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: It was a stalemate. If this was a boxing match,

164
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: you would say that it was a split decision. And

165
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:54,520
Speaker 1: everything now points to and it's not just the people

166
00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: in the political class and uh, you know, journals and

167
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 1: analysts and all the all the rest that are do

168
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,440
Speaker 1: you think about because everything that you see now until

169
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:09,600
Speaker 1: then until that next election day is going to be

170
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 1: colored by this fight between Democrats and Republicans. There is

171
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: very little now of real substance that the president is

172
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:22,160
Speaker 1: going to be able to do that involves Congress. We'll

173
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: talk a bit more during the show today about people

174
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:32,559
Speaker 1: to healthcare, maybe infrastructure package. You know, anything is anything

175
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: is possible. Sure, anything could happen, but I don't think

176
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 1: anything will happen. You will see a ferocious anti Trump

177
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:52,679
Speaker 1: resistance that is able now because they finally have control

178
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 1: of one branch of government, is able to indulge all

179
00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: of their wildest fantasies about Trump Russia collusion. Is able

180
00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:09,120
Speaker 1: to be vindictive, seek to settle scores, and it is

181
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 1: going to be nasty. It is going to be a

182
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: very tough fight. Now, I want to tell you about

183
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,640
Speaker 1: why I think last night happened the way that it didn't. Obviously,

184
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 1: for me, the two biggest factors were, well, you could

185
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 1: say three one the economy, two Trump, three the Kavanaugh effect.

186
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 1: Let's talk about the cabin affect, and then I'll address

187
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 1: where all this is going. And of course, the resignation

188
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,160
Speaker 1: requested resignation of my buddy Jeff Sessions as Attorney General

189
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 1: to miss Jeff. I liked him. I know some of

190
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: you are disappointed he didn't do more on Russia collusion,

191
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: but he recused himself. Once you recuse yous over, you

192
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,480
Speaker 1: can't unrecuse yourself. So but Jeff Sessions, as you know,

193
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: was out. That was the big breaking news. Like that

194
00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 1: happened later on today. Trump is he's cleaning house after

195
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: the election, just as we all expected him to. But

196
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: that has important implications that that gives us a sense

197
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,400
Speaker 1: of where things are going to. Mueller is going to

198
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: be a name you hear a lot more in the

199
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:16,200
Speaker 1: weeks and months ahead, probably months. As much as I

200
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,720
Speaker 1: hate to say it, the Russia collusion investigation is going

201
00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:21,559
Speaker 1: to go back at the top of the headlines. Again.

202
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,160
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a whole shift. We should prepare for it.

203
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 1: But I do want to take a moment we come

204
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: back to just discuss Kavanaugh and what that meant in

205
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: this election, and also what it tells us about what

206
00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: the fight ahead will look like. Stay with me, team,

207
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:41,120
Speaker 1: We'll be right back. The observations on the Kavanaugh effect

208
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:46,680
Speaker 1: very helpful. Yeah, I think the Republican sort of core

209
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: voters in the States that were critical to us. We're

210
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: highly offended by the questioning of the presumption of innocence

211
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: and the tactics, and I think it was like an

212
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: adrenaline shop. We were worried bad lack of intensity on

213
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: our side, and I think the Kavanaugh I've certainly provided

214
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: that it was extremely helpful. It's noteworthy that the one

215
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 1: Democrat and a red state who survived voted for her Kavanaugh.

216
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:17,280
Speaker 1: The Kavanaugh effect was one of the biggest lessons of

217
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:21,840
Speaker 1: the mid term. And as you know, I speak with

218
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,160
Speaker 1: particular pride on this issue as somebody with all of

219
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 1: your support, who was as vocal as I could be

220
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,120
Speaker 1: and in contact with the White House and people on

221
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill about how we needed to back Kavanaugh. Stands

222
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 1: strong with Kavanaugh and that women were lying about him

223
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:40,040
Speaker 1: as part of a character assassination the likes of whist

224
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 1: of which this country had really never seen before, at

225
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 1: least not in my lifetime. It was appalling. It was

226
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: painful to watch a good man have his reputation destroyed

227
00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: on such flimsy pretext and such obvious motivation. But you know,

228
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: the good news is that normal Americans don't appreciate the

229
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: ritualized humiliation of a respected husband, father, and jurist, the

230
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: amusement and political satisfaction of the pink hat maniacs Justice Kavanaugh.

231
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 1: It's good to say it now, isn't it not, Judge Kavanaugh.

232
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: Justice Kavanaugh stood strong and he fought back. It's not

233
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: just that members of the Senate, and thank you, Lindsey

234
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: Graham did the right thing for the GOP. In the GOP,

235
00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: it was also that Kavanaugh realized he was backed into

236
00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 1: a corner and they were about to finish him off.

237
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 1: And they were so angry and so full of vitriol

238
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 1: and hate about his performance because they knew they were

239
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: just they had him. They they were so close to

240
00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: finishing off Kavanaugh in front of the whole country, in

241
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 1: front of over twenty million people watching those sham hearings,

242
00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: that embarrassment to the Senate, and he, in front of

243
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: his wife and his children, all of his colleagues and friends,

244
00:16:11,160 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: found the strength to stand and fight for his honor

245
00:16:14,280 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: and the truth. Because he did that, we now have

246
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: a conservative constitutional sitting on the Supreme Court, and we

247
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:32,600
Speaker 1: have a conservative Republican majority in the Senate. If you

248
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: have any doubt about that, let me just share with

249
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: you the following as McConnell said. Joe Manchin, a Democrat,

250
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: Yes on Cavanaugh. He got reelected in West Virginia last night,

251
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:49,680
Speaker 1: but hide Camp went no on Kavanaugh. She lost in

252
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 1: North Dakota. Mccaskell no on Kavanaugh, lost in Missouri. Donnelly

253
00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: no on Kavanaugh, defeated in Indian Anna. Voters of of

254
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,959
Speaker 1: good conscience and good sense punished cowards in the Senate

255
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:13,120
Speaker 1: for doing the wrong thing, and as a result of that,

256
00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 1: we now have a strong Senate majority and probably lost

257
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:24,040
Speaker 1: ten to fifteen fewer House seats because of Kavanaugh. But

258
00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:30,280
Speaker 1: also we understand who the enemy is here and how

259
00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 1: they will fight what they're willing to do. We must

260
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,960
Speaker 1: understand that Kavanaugh was really just a symptom of the

261
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 1: larger disease of all out personal destruction at the hands

262
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,639
Speaker 1: of leftists. That is what they now seek to do

263
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:52,800
Speaker 1: to regain power. Their arguments are garbage, their positions are laughable.

264
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: They claim to embrace science when they rejected. They claim

265
00:17:57,560 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 1: to want to bring more healthcare to more people, and

266
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: they don't understand the basic math involved. So how do

267
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,600
Speaker 1: you think they're gonna win through a campaign? Of humiliation

268
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:13,920
Speaker 1: and individualized terror, just like what they did to Kavanaugh

269
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: whenever there is a political motivation for them to do so.

270
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 1: Kavanaugh was a harbinger of what is to come, not

271
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,320
Speaker 1: just in the months they had over the next two years.

272
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: Thank god he stood in fight, and thank Heavens for

273
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 1: all of you who supported that fight and who voted

274
00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: to support that fight team. We got a couple of

275
00:18:38,840 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: calls up, let's get to here for some of the folks.

276
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:46,399
Speaker 1: Charlie in Saulisbury, Maryland, what's up, Charlie, Hey, thanks for calling.

277
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 1: Let me call you Buck, thank you for calling in.

278
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: What's on your mind? Yeah? I was listening to a

279
00:18:52,119 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: couple deals with Trump's interviews with reporters and won't report

280
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: were asking about, you know, the investigation since Nancy will

281
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: probably be speaker and stuff like that, and he said, well,

282
00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 1: you know, we're not done with our investigations, and he

283
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:16,600
Speaker 1: named off, you know, like the server and missing emails

284
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: and comy and that, and then the next reporter I

285
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,440
Speaker 1: think it was an extra maybe too too later that

286
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:32,200
Speaker 1: person asked about um going now get a brain fusion? Yeah, okay,

287
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 1: A bunch of different investigations being asked about sure, So

288
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:36,119
Speaker 1: are you asking me should Trump do this? Is this

289
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,639
Speaker 1: the right way to go to essentially tell them that

290
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:43,240
Speaker 1: there will be investigatory retaliation in response. I mean the

291
00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:46,880
Speaker 1: answer is yeah, that that he should tell them that because,

292
00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:52,760
Speaker 1: for example, the Hillary Clinton email investigation, she wasn't cleared.

293
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,199
Speaker 1: They just chose not to bring charges against her. They

294
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: could reopen that and look at more more information and

295
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 1: decide that they might have a different outcome here. So

296
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,120
Speaker 1: you know, if the Democrats want to play rough, they

297
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,160
Speaker 1: should know that Trump and the Republicans will play rough

298
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,440
Speaker 1: in response. And that's the only way I mean, that's

299
00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:11,360
Speaker 1: the only way you can deal with the left. If

300
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:15,000
Speaker 1: you show any weakness, they exploited. The second question to

301
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: him was about declassifying the documents, and they don't understand Trump.

302
00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: He he's got all the cards. Well he's he's held

303
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 1: that back. And by the way, I think that people have,

304
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,280
Speaker 1: you know, including myself, have said I'm frustrated. I wish

305
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,040
Speaker 1: you would. I asked the president to his face. We

306
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: had a conversation about it. I as him, I said, well,

307
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 1: will you release the documents? He said he's going to,

308
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: but then he got pushed back, and I think he's

309
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,879
Speaker 1: holding it back because he wants to see, you know,

310
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: the release of the stuff that he's got, I think

311
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 1: would have a lot it would be a lot of

312
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 1: egg on the face of the d o J. The

313
00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: FBI would look really bad. But better to to hold

314
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 1: it until you need it. And he might wait until

315
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 1: the Mala report comes out and then as a response

316
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: to the Muller report, drop that. Now, think about how

317
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 1: that goes, right, So, so you know, he's you know exactly,

318
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,760
Speaker 1: I mean, but you think about this when when people

319
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,679
Speaker 1: always talking about Tump playing five D chests. I mean,

320
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 1: I actually used to political chess growing up. I was Okay,

321
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 1: it wasn't very good. Uh, but you don't want to

322
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 1: pull your queen out too early, you know. And and

323
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 1: I think in this whole Russia collusion investigation, the queen

324
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:28,879
Speaker 1: that Trump has, so to speak, is that he can

325
00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: declassify this stuff and just show what a sham the

326
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 1: whole thing is. So let it play out, right, let

327
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: Mueller do what he's doing. The moment that all of

328
00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 1: a sudden Mueller starts trying to subpoen at Trump's uh,

329
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: you know, financial records or something. Then all of a

330
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,400
Speaker 1: sudden he goes, Okay, now let's let people know what's

331
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,119
Speaker 1: really going on here. So I think he's trying to

332
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,119
Speaker 1: be strategic about it, and I do think there are

333
00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,600
Speaker 1: concerns about third party until essentially, are our foreign partners

334
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,480
Speaker 1: giving us information that we don't We don't want to

335
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 1: burn them, right, It's like a journalist doesn't want to

336
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,920
Speaker 1: burn a source. So though journalists will burn sources, they

337
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,359
Speaker 1: make a big deal out of that depends on what

338
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,800
Speaker 1: side of the all the sources on. Thanks for calling in, Charlie,

339
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:08,720
Speaker 1: Dean up in Boston. What's up Boston, Hey, brother Buck.

340
00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,439
Speaker 1: Three things I personally took away from last night. The

341
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: first is I noticed that the old GOP that all

342
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 1: stepped aside the big masses, so do the media told

343
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 1: them they were going to lose years ago, they said, okay,

344
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,200
Speaker 1: we're leaving. So the recognition wasn't out there, their war chest,

345
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: money wasn't out there. So still we did as well

346
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 1: as we did without all of that. The second part

347
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 1: was we sent out a president with a record in

348
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,880
Speaker 1: two years, and that's all we sent out. They sent

349
00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,639
Speaker 1: They put the Clintons in the closet, Bot Obama, OPRA, Hollywood,

350
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: all of the money, you know, hundreds of millions of

351
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: dollars from the mega donors the media, and still that's

352
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: all they came up with. So now today they have

353
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 1: to start run into You can't turn on the record

354
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 1: of last night and go back to Omega donors and say, oh,

355
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,360
Speaker 1: we need another half a billion dollars for two years

356
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,640
Speaker 1: from now. At some point, these these people are gonna say,

357
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know this this I think

358
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,160
Speaker 1: I'm back in the wrong. We'll see it. Maybe I'll

359
00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 1: just sit this next one. Well, Dean, think about it.

360
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 1: They's been seventy million dollars to lose one sentence seat

361
00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: in Texas. Ever to lose the race. What is that?

362
00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 1: This is crazy. Seventy million dollars that's just all going

363
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: to media buys basically, so they saturated the Texas media

364
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 1: market with Beto Betto, Oh we need Betto and then

365
00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 1: he loses Ted Cruise. By the way, it was too close,

366
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: Ted Cruise. You know I've been saying he's going with

367
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 1: my Ted Ted. Tedd needs to step up his game

368
00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: a little bit. He needed to make an example of

369
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 1: Betto trying to trying to sneak into the Republicans kitchen

370
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: there and and steal a seat. I mean, uh, he

371
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,640
Speaker 1: can't let that. He can't let that one goes. I'm

372
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 1: a little I'm a little disappointed with with the marginal

373
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,400
Speaker 1: victory for Teddy. Yeah, he won, I'm happy for him,

374
00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:49,560
Speaker 1: but he should have won by at least six or

375
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,199
Speaker 1: seven points. I mean, to win by I think he

376
00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: won by three maybe four. Not enough, not enough against

377
00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 1: a betto the billionaire who is a fake Latino essentially,

378
00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 1: and that's how he's running the whole thing. It's just

379
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 1: it's just bizarre. But Dean, there'll be a lot of money, unfortunately,

380
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,160
Speaker 1: a lot of liberal billionaires who are trying to they're

381
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: trying to buy their their their passage to Nirvana by

382
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,439
Speaker 1: you know, spending on these leftist candidates. Thank you for

383
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 1: calling her from Boston, my friend. You know, Kelly and

384
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 1: Conway made a very very important point. The media. You know,

385
00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:21,240
Speaker 1: the media is such a funny relationship with her. They

386
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 1: can have her on air enough, but they're always like, oh,

387
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:24,679
Speaker 1: I don't know about Kelly and Conway, you know, at

388
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 1: CNN and and all these other places. But Trump did

389
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 1: make the difference, and Kelly made that case play three,

390
00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,600
Speaker 1: and there's no question that his presence on the campaign

391
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,840
Speaker 1: trail made the difference. In fact, he went five for

392
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,439
Speaker 1: five and just his stops from Sunday and Monday alone.

393
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 1: I was with him yesterday. There's three stops on the Monday,

394
00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: all three of the candidates he stumps for in three

395
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:47,240
Speaker 1: very different states, for a governorship of Ohio and also

396
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 1: two Senate seats in Indiana and Missoura, both of which

397
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: are pickups from the Democrats. And I think when a

398
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 1: president in power has the Senate, it's easier to get

399
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 1: through judicial nominations. You've seen that's when I've been big

400
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: mark of his success in the first two years in office,

401
00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: are these judicial nominations getting through and the U. S.

402
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 1: Circuit courts and of course to the United States Supreme Court,

403
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,520
Speaker 1: and also the executive norms. The House looks like a

404
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 1: local Democratic but not by the large margins that have

405
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 1: happened in the past. We know that President Obama suffered

406
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,880
Speaker 1: sixty three losses in the House in two thousand ten,

407
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: President Clinton fifty four losses his first mid terms. And

408
00:25:22,880 --> 00:25:25,720
Speaker 1: these presidents, these two term presidents, found a way to

409
00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,719
Speaker 1: work with the party out of power on things that

410
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 1: matter to the country. This president is prepared to do

411
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: that to work across the guide the President, the economy,

412
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: and Kavanaugh. That is the the triumvirate, if you all.

413
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: That is the trio, the the secret to the relative

414
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 1: success of what happened last night. And the good news

415
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,960
Speaker 1: is that the president is clearly going to still be

416
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 1: who he is for the for the the stretch now

417
00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: between where we are and where we're going in the

418
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:05,400
Speaker 1: in the presidential election, and then I'm hoping the economy

419
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 1: continues to grow. There may be a reset, but as

420
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 1: long as it's not a catastrophic reset right before the election,

421
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,880
Speaker 1: we'll be fine because the president's policies do promote growth.

422
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 1: The president's policies are better than Obama's. I mean, this

423
00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: is this is the good news is we're right. But

424
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,960
Speaker 1: then also Kavanaugh. Remember that we are the side of

425
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 1: honor and integrity, and remember that the other side is not.

426
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 1: And that is who we are facing. That is what

427
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:36,639
Speaker 1: we are up against. Do not forget Kavanaugh, not now,

428
00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:42,840
Speaker 1: not a year from now. We'll be right back. Oh.

429
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: I think oversight is important in the sense that right

430
00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 1: now the system of checks and balances is non existent.

431
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,199
Speaker 1: I mean, look at all the cabinet secretaries that have

432
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,920
Speaker 1: been involved in wrongdoing and not announced of oversight from

433
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 1: the Republicans. I mean that that's unconsortable. This is tax

434
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: pair money that is being wasted. And oh, I'm sure

435
00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:08,760
Speaker 1: we'll expect Herran's because we we have a constitutional duty

436
00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,880
Speaker 1: um of oversight in the in the U. S. House.

437
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 1: What would Senate Republicans to in the event of the

438
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 1: House down produce trouble to obtain presidents from hots records? Well,

439
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: you know, the whole issue presidential harassment is interesting. I

440
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 1: remember when we tried it in the late nineties, we

441
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:33,120
Speaker 1: impeach President Clinton. His numbers went up, an hours went down,

442
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 1: and we underperformed in the national election. So the Democrats

443
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 1: in the House will have to decide just how much

444
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 1: presidential harassment today. Thanks good strategy. I'm not so sure

445
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 1: it'll work for them. I think Mitch is right. I

446
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:51,560
Speaker 1: think McConnell's onto something there that the American people overall

447
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: will be displeased with the obvious political harassment and legal

448
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,199
Speaker 1: harass sman that we can expect from the Democrats from

449
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:05,639
Speaker 1: the hashtag resistance crowd. That doesn't mean they're not gonna

450
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: do it, though, doesn't mean that the plan is not

451
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 1: for the left two just go all out with everything

452
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:20,240
Speaker 1: they can to not just expose, you know, wrongdoing. I

453
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:21,720
Speaker 1: mean they're gonna say it's about that. It's it's not

454
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 1: about that at all. It's just going to be what

455
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: can they do to inflict irritation, anxiety, and possibly pain

456
00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,679
Speaker 1: on the president and those around him, And that's what

457
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,720
Speaker 1: they will do. This is why the kavan A effect,

458
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,960
Speaker 1: I would notice, is also so important. What we saw

459
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 1: with Cavanaugh was the unadulterated, distilled, pure version of left

460
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: wing bile that they will unleash on anybody who stands

461
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: in their way when they have the opportunity, when they

462
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 1: really have a target. There is nothing they won't say.

463
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:08,480
Speaker 1: There's not there's nothing they won't do. There is no

464
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:15,080
Speaker 1: level to which the Democrats will not stoop if they

465
00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: think that it is in their political interests if they

466
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:27,720
Speaker 1: could try to turn Kavanaugh into a ruined gang rapists,

467
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:29,480
Speaker 1: if they can try to destroy his life based on

468
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: the evidence that they presented there, which was zero evidence.

469
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 1: What do you think when they have subpoena power in

470
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 1: the House of Representatives, they're going to do to everybody

471
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,960
Speaker 1: around Trump, anybody who's ever been close to Trump, anybody

472
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 1: who's supportive of Trump publicly in a way that they

473
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 1: want to make an example of them. This is they're

474
00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 1: going to turn into a smear machine. Get ready for

475
00:29:55,560 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: Pelosi lead Soviet styles show trials. That's what's coming for

476
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: the next two years. That's why when the President today said, okay, well,

477
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: the Senate also has subpoena power, So you want to

478
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 1: you want to play games, we can play games. He's

479
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 1: completely right. We have to raise the temperature in response

480
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 1: to the heat we're going to get from the House

481
00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:24,520
Speaker 1: of Representatives. There's no other way. They have to feel

482
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,760
Speaker 1: the pressure too. There has to be a punishment for

483
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,480
Speaker 1: their bad behavior, or else they're just gonna run wild.

484
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 1: There's nothing that they will uh that. There's no ethics

485
00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: that will stop them. Right, There's no sense of duty

486
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,560
Speaker 1: to country or anything else. They just they think that

487
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,640
Speaker 1: their duty and they also have a very personal investment

488
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 1: in it because they feel undermined by Trump, his success

489
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 1: and his very existence. They think that they're their duty

490
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,480
Speaker 1: to country, if you will, is to destroy the president

491
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: and the presidency. Everything else is secondary to that mission.

492
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: They've made this clear. Now they may go after the

493
00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 1: president's finances, and that's going to be a particularly interesting,

494
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: interesting fight because what does that have to do with anything.

495
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 1: They may go after his tax returns, why just to

496
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:19,920
Speaker 1: try to humiliate him. Keep in mind that some of

497
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:23,560
Speaker 1: the same journals who tell us all that we must

498
00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: see Trump's tax returns even though they're under auded, we're

499
00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 1: completely fine with. We could not see and still to

500
00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: this day, have never seen Barack Obama's college records. Why why.

501
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: It's not because I think he's a secret Kenyan or

502
00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: you know what, a Muslim, or any of those things

503
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 1: that have been said. It's because I think he was

504
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 1: a mediocre student at best, and I think that they

505
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: didn't want people to know that the president, who was

506
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,200
Speaker 1: supposed to be the greatest genius who have ever lived

507
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: in this country was just kind of an okay student

508
00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 1: and got to go to the best schools imaginable as

509
00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 1: a just kind of it okay student. That's my theory.

510
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:03,719
Speaker 1: No one can say I'm wrong because they don't know.

511
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 1: But I'd be willing to bet a little bit of

512
00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,720
Speaker 1: money on that one. But nobody was trying to Nobody

513
00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: in the in the media least was clamoring for the

514
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 1: release of Obama's college records, but they are clambing for

515
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:17,280
Speaker 1: the release of and they'll use legal processes to get

516
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:21,280
Speaker 1: it if they can Trump's tax returns. And they'll weaponize

517
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 1: the government. I mean, they're weaponize the bureaucracy. If that's

518
00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 1: what it takes for them, that's what they'll do. So

519
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:34,200
Speaker 1: we should just be ready for what's coming. Kavanaugh, Yes,

520
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,640
Speaker 1: save the Senate. Kavanaugh not only has given us a

521
00:32:38,800 --> 00:32:44,280
Speaker 1: great Supreme Court justice for decades to come. And when

522
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: I say we thank Kavanaugh, I don't mean just for

523
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:50,720
Speaker 1: being there. I mean for standing up and fighting. But

524
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,680
Speaker 1: and he gave us that Supreme Court seat. He saved

525
00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 1: the Senate for the Republicans too, I have there's no

526
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 1: doubt in my mind that is what happened. But let's

527
00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:05,440
Speaker 1: not forget that lesson of Kavanaugh. It's not just applicable

528
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,840
Speaker 1: to the left. Is crazy, don't give them power in

529
00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:11,920
Speaker 1: the mid germs. Although that was certainly important, it's also

530
00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,800
Speaker 1: important going forward that we remember how the left plays

531
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:21,880
Speaker 1: the game, what depths they will sing to, how completely

532
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:27,400
Speaker 1: unmoored they will be in their attacks, the perversion of

533
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 1: truth that they will engage in the the smears, the

534
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: character assassination, the kind of personal destruction that I mean

535
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,480
Speaker 1: this and I don't say this too to exaggerate. What

536
00:33:43,600 --> 00:33:47,760
Speaker 1: they did to Kavanaugh could have driven somebody without his

537
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:52,120
Speaker 1: support network, without such a a a devoted and strong

538
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 1: wife and family and friends around. What the Democrats did

539
00:33:55,640 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: to Kavanaugh could have brought a person to suicide. And

540
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: here's what I think you should all know about that

541
00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: if something like that had happened, there are many on

542
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: the left, many Democrats, who, whether they would have publicly

543
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: said so or not, would have felt that there was

544
00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:18,279
Speaker 1: justice in that. That's how sick these maniacs are. That's

545
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 1: how evil they are. And now they have subpoena power

546
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 1: in the House. Now the left wing Pelosiites are going

547
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,279
Speaker 1: to be in a position to use the force of

548
00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 1: law to the same ends. Subpoena members of Trump's family.

549
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 1: Try to, you know, try to get Ivanka on the stand,

550
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 1: Try to get Donald Trump Junior before a committee, Try

551
00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,319
Speaker 1: to pull their finances, try you to go after other

552
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,480
Speaker 1: members of the Trump family you don't really ever hear about.

553
00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 1: Just to create damage and mayhem and destruction and terror

554
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 1: because they can't beat Trump. That's the underlying terror for

555
00:34:55,560 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: the left that last night was made so clear. They

556
00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:05,880
Speaker 1: can't beat him in politics. They will not be able

557
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,879
Speaker 1: to mount a candidacy that can overcome Trump. The only

558
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:13,160
Speaker 1: way they can beat Trump on the field of political

559
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 1: battle is to cheat, is to get him before he

560
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,080
Speaker 1: can take the field, is to go after his family.

561
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,120
Speaker 1: They can't just face him and win in a fair fight.

562
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,399
Speaker 1: They're going to be underhanded. And we're going to live

563
00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 1: through this, my friend. So yes, we're gonna have to

564
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 1: keep our shields high together for the next two years.

565
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:39,000
Speaker 1: It's coming everything, his taxes, the Mueller, pro Russia hystoria,

566
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 1: all that. It's coming back in a big way. We

567
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: must be prepared. I love black Rifle coffee. You know this.

568
00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:49,879

573
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,800

587
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,080
Speaker 1: uh an administration that's focused on lowering the taxes, growing

588
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:59,680
Speaker 1: our economy, creating jobs, defeating isis remaking the judiciary. Uh

589
00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 1: Thick saying that the tremendous opioid crisis that we have,

590
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: I think we can work with Democrats on that. You know,

591
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,960
Speaker 1: we know what we believe in, and we know whose

592
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 1: side we're on. We came to this movement to pick

593
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 1: a fight a fight on behalf of millions of Americans

594
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 1: who are getting ripped off in a rigged economy and

595
00:37:24,160 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 1: ignored by a corrupt government in Washington. We came to

596
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:33,759
Speaker 1: this fight for families trying to stretch a paycheck and

597
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:37,439
Speaker 1: for people living one moment away from a medical bill

598
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:42,080
Speaker 1: that would send them spiraling over a financial cliff. This

599
00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:46,600
Speaker 1: resistance began with women, and it is being led by

600
00:37:46,719 --> 00:37:53,320
Speaker 1: women tonight. Take her, Elizabeth Warren at her word, my friends,

601
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:58,440
Speaker 1: the Democrats offer one thing, and one thing only for

602
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:04,720
Speaker 1: the next two years, yours resistance. They're going to wage

603
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:09,000
Speaker 1: political war on this president, on this presidency, on conservatives,

604
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:12,880
Speaker 1: on the Republican Party, and all who stand with them,

605
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: all who convert into philosophies of limited government, individual liberty,

606
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,719
Speaker 1: basic rights enshrined in the Constitution. Those people are going

607
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,799
Speaker 1: to be treated very poorly by the other side. Be

608
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:32,120
Speaker 1: ready for it. There is not going to be any comedy.

609
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,720
Speaker 1: There's not going to be any coming together or uniting.

610
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 1: It is. It is laughable when you hear Nancy Pelosi

611
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:46,239
Speaker 1: last night say that maybe there will be a bipartisan

612
00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 1: moment here play four teens. She actually said this pretty amazing.

613
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,960
Speaker 1: We will strive from bipartisanship. We believe that we have

614
00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:58,640
Speaker 1: a responsibility to seek common ground where we can, but

615
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:03,440
Speaker 1: we cannot standard ground, but we must try, and so

616
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:09,600
Speaker 1: by part openness and transparency, accountability, by partisanship a very

617
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:13,920
Speaker 1: important part of how we will go forward. There will

618
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:17,400
Speaker 1: be none of that. Really, There is not any area

619
00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:20,240
Speaker 1: that I could even think of her point to where

620
00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 1: they will work in a bipartisan fashion that will make

621
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 1: a difference. I mean, sure, you know, though they'll nibble

622
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:30,360
Speaker 1: around the edges of some things. There's there's some possibility

623
00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:35,680
Speaker 1: maybe that they'll do some Obamacare fixes which will just

624
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 1: me in shoveling some money into some places and then

625
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:41,359
Speaker 1: assume that in they'll work out what really happens to Obamacare.

626
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:46,200
Speaker 1: In fact, Belosi specifically talked about healthcare right after the

627
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: Democrats took the House. Here's what she said. In place,

628
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 1: seventeen voters delivered and resounding verdict against Congressional Republicans attacks

629
00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: on Medicare, Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act and people

630
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:03,439
Speaker 1: with preexisting conditions and districts everywhere in America. They went

631
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 1: in a new new direction. Yes, pre existing conditions. All

632
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,960
Speaker 1: we ever hear about Obamacare is, as I've told you,

633
00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,719
Speaker 1: thousands of pages long, just because all it does is

634
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 1: deal with pre existing conditions. Of course not, there's a

635
00:40:22,800 --> 00:40:27,040
Speaker 1: lot more to it than that. It's about the redistribution

636
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:30,719
Speaker 1: of wealth via the health care system, and it's about

637
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:35,000
Speaker 1: putting us on a pathway to single payer, which people

638
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,480
Speaker 1: like me have been saying for the last seven years.

639
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 1: Now they're open about it. They were telling us that

640
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:43,240
Speaker 1: it was a lie and it was a smear. Remember

641
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 1: Obama said, remember the old Obama you lie thing, and

642
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,439
Speaker 1: people got so angry at that. Remember of Congress he yelled,

643
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,839
Speaker 1: you lie. Well, if Obama didn't lie, it was a

644
00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 1: lie that the Democrats would not try to give illegals

645
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,560
Speaker 1: Obamacare because that was Hillary's platform the last election, openly

646
00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:05,359
Speaker 1: written out on our website, spoken about that was where

647
00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 1: they were going. So it was a lie, whether Obama

648
00:41:09,680 --> 00:41:11,799
Speaker 1: knew it or not, and I think Obama probably knew it.

649
00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:13,840
Speaker 1: He certainly knew it was a lie that you can't

650
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: or you know, if you like your healthcare plan, you

651
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 1: can keep it. He knew that was a lie. I

652
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 1: didn't care. He had an agenda to deliver on. He

653
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,960
Speaker 1: had something that he had to to get done, no

654
00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: matter what he had to say in that process. McConnell

655
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:33,399
Speaker 1: pushed back on this a little bit fortunately, but look,

656
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 1: the Senate's not gonna be able to do anything without

657
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: a majority of the House now. In healthcare, and because

658
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: of John McCain, we did not actually change anything substantive

659
00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 1: with from a legislative point of view, with Obamacare. We've

660
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 1: only made some executive order fixes here and there, right

661
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:53,320
Speaker 1: removing the individual mandate, that sort of thing, But they

662
00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:56,920
Speaker 1: just said they're not going to enforce it, the individual mandate,

663
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:58,440
Speaker 1: so it really still is there. So if you have

664
00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 1: a different administration, guess what visual mandate is back. But

665
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,520
Speaker 1: here's what McConnell said about healthcare, speaking of where the

666
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 1: bipartisan this is. There is non play a team and

667
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,080
Speaker 1: there aren't any Republican attacks on Medicare or Social Security.

668
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:16,160
Speaker 1: That's all Democratic fantasy that they spend every years. Yeah,

669
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: but with regard to healthcare, it's not working well. This

670
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:23,239
Speaker 1: is Obamacare, it's not working well. The American people are

671
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:26,520
Speaker 1: giving us divided government. The Democrats now have some governing

672
00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:29,920
Speaker 1: responsibility being in the majority of the House. I think

673
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,600
Speaker 1: what they're saying to it is you guys get together

674
00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: and figure out a way to improve the health care system.

675
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:41,120
Speaker 1: Obamacare has not worked well, so they've given us divided government.

676
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: We have to work together. We need to improve the

677
00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,000
Speaker 1: health care system in America because it's not working well.

678
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: That's all true, although it's not as true as Mitch

679
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: says it in the sense that most people actually like

680
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:59,439
Speaker 1: their healthcare. Most people think that their healthcare is pretty good.

681
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 1: Those who have employer provided healthcare satisfaction with us really

682
00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: you never hear about this. Satisfaction is really high. There's

683
00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: a percentage of the population and you know that works

684
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: and can't really afford healthcare and gets caught up in

685
00:43:13,440 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: dealing with crappy HMOs and all that. And that's why

686
00:43:16,120 --> 00:43:18,239
Speaker 1: we've gotten into this crisis we're in with with the

687
00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:20,360
Speaker 1: health care system, because people realize that it's you know,

688
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 1: it's unethical that somebody would suffer horribly in a very

689
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: wealthy country because they don't have the funds to pay

690
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:29,960
Speaker 1: for a disease that they've contracted just because you know,

691
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 1: but there's not gonna be any bipartisan fixing any of

692
00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:37,359
Speaker 1: this stuff. That's fantasy land stuff. So, as I've been

693
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 1: saying to you. The Democrats took the house. It's time

694
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:45,640
Speaker 1: for us to batten down the hatches. Okay, so you

695
00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:47,759
Speaker 1: need to hire somebody for a job opening. You know

696
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,799
Speaker 1: what's not smart just sort of hoping that the right

697
00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:54,160
Speaker 1: resumes show up. You know what else isn't smart? Just

698
00:43:54,320 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 1: posting somewhere online and assuming, well, this is getting in

699
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:00,120
Speaker 1: front of the best candidates. Forget all that stuff. What

00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,960

Speaker 1: be happy or say it, but if you'ld just find

716
00:44:56,560 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: about it, okay. Carlos Cube, Lah, Mike Kaufman, too bad.

717
00:45:03,239 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 1: Mike mea love. I saw me a love. She called

718
00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:14,239
Speaker 1: me all the time to help her with a hostage situation,

719
00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 1: being held hostage in Venezuela. But Mia Love gave me

720
00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:27,040
Speaker 1: no love and she lost. Too bad. Sorry about that,

721
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:31,360
Speaker 1: Maya and Barbara Compstock was another one. I mean, I

722
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,040
Speaker 1: think she could have won that race, but she didn't

723
00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:39,320
Speaker 1: want to have any embrace. Peter Roscomb didn't want the embrace.

724
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:44,080
Speaker 1: Eric Paulson didn't want the embrace. Bob Hugan, I feel

725
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:47,040
Speaker 1: badly because I think that's something that could have been one.

726
00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:49,520
Speaker 1: That's a race that could have been one. John Fasso.

727
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:51,840
Speaker 1: Those are some of the people that you know, decided

728
00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:56,560
Speaker 1: for their own reason not to embrace. Whether it's me

729
00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:00,799
Speaker 1: or what we stand for, but what we stand for

730
00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:07,279
Speaker 1: meant a lot to most people. The President is just

731
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:12,280
Speaker 1: at press comments earlier today saying what's true. If people

732
00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 1: really got upset about this, people are calling him acting

733
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:18,040
Speaker 1: like a mafia boss over of course at you idiot

734
00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:23,920
Speaker 1: Central CNN. But the President is just doing very clear

735
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,960
Speaker 1: election analysis where you had a lot of different candidates

736
00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:30,799
Speaker 1: that probably had they not thought, had they not, you know,

737
00:46:31,400 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 1: decided to go with the conventional wisdom of oh to

738
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,440
Speaker 1: win in this district, where to win in this area,

739
00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:40,000
Speaker 1: you gotta you gotta distance yourself from Trump. Probably could

740
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,359
Speaker 1: have won you know, New Jersey. For a moment there

741
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: looked like that was a winnable sentence seat. I'm talking

742
00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 1: more about Menendez later on. But Oi, I can't believe it. Well,

743
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:55,040
Speaker 1: I can't believe it's Jersey. Oh Jersey, Look at you, Jersey.

744
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:58,760
Speaker 1: Look what you got. Now, Look what you made me do? Jersey. Uh,

745
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 1: you know, but you you could have had the president

746
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,600
Speaker 1: really get involved in some of these races, and it

747
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 1: might have. Look I I still think of Democrats probably

748
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,759
Speaker 1: win the House by some kind of majority, but it

749
00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,799
Speaker 1: would have been less and the center majority. I mean,

750
00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 1: in a different world you might have had another I

751
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:17,200
Speaker 1: shouldn't say a different world and just a different night.

752
00:47:17,200 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 1: I mean, in different dynamics, you could have had three

753
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:22,120
Speaker 1: or four more Republican pickups. I mean, hell are out

754
00:47:22,120 --> 00:47:25,719
Speaker 1: in Nevada definitely could have gone GOP with a little

755
00:47:25,760 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 1: bit more effort. New Jersey could have gone GOP with

756
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: Hugen over Menendez. Um that there there were there were

757
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,920
Speaker 1: a few spots where oh, I mean you know, Tester

758
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,279
Speaker 1: and Montana. Uh, there are some places where we really

759
00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:41,560
Speaker 1: could have but we did We did well. I mean,

760
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,520
Speaker 1: don't get me wrong, GPD. Well, I'm not trying to

761
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:47,560
Speaker 1: be greedy, but I just want to note that the

762
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:49,799
Speaker 1: President's gotten so much pushback over this, and I was like,

763
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 1: why it's important that for the next election people know.

764
00:47:55,080 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 1: And Trump goes on the record and saying, okay, establishment

765
00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 1: GOP types who thought you were too cool and too

766
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: smart to tie yourself to the president. The leader of

767
00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:06,480
Speaker 1: the party is the leader of the Republican Party. Now

768
00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:10,279
Speaker 1: that's that's not debatable. That's not up for discussion. Do

769
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:11,680
Speaker 1: you want to be in the Republican Party and you

770
00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,959
Speaker 1: want to get behind the leader or not? But there's

771
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: nothing That doesn't mean you have to agree with them

772
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:17,080
Speaker 1: on everything. It doesn't mean you have to defend everything

773
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 1: he says. Just means do you support him or not?

774
00:48:19,600 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 1: Are you a part of his agenda? Are you a

775
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 1: part of the implementation of his vision. And if you

776
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,959
Speaker 1: want to say no, we'll just remember that a bunch

777
00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 1: of people said no for this election and they got

778
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 1: wiped out. Why why is this such a big deal?

779
00:48:33,160 --> 00:48:34,560
Speaker 1: People are making such a big deal out of this

780
00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:38,640
Speaker 1: today looking around and saying, well, what's what's the problem? So,

781
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,720
Speaker 1: you know, Trump, Trump is telling people what they should

782
00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,560
Speaker 1: know about you don't run, you don't run. You know,

783
00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,239
Speaker 1: with with Trump, bad things happen. I I don't really,

784
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,120
Speaker 1: I don't know. You get it. People well, they just

785
00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:51,560
Speaker 1: they hate Trump. I mean, they just always want to

786
00:48:51,600 --> 00:48:52,880
Speaker 1: make a big and make a big deal out of

787
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:56,600
Speaker 1: this um and and then there's there's this other issue

788
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,440
Speaker 1: I wanted to just get you for a moment here. Well,

789
00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:01,640
Speaker 1: first of all, who qualifies as a woman that we

790
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:05,120
Speaker 1: should be excited about in politics is always an interesting thing.

791
00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 1: It's just like, who qualifies as a minority? What was

792
00:49:08,200 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 1: there any embrace of uh Condoleeza Rice as a very

793
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:18,640
Speaker 1: high profile, very powerful minority under the Trump administration? Of course,

794
00:49:18,680 --> 00:49:21,960
Speaker 1: the answer, you know is no, there was no embrace

795
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:25,480
Speaker 1: of Condoleeza Rice as a minority in that administration. In fact,

796
00:49:25,520 --> 00:49:29,239
Speaker 1: people I think pretty openly questioned whether she counts as

797
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 1: a minority whatever that means. You know, if you're not

798
00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:36,440
Speaker 1: working with the left on this stuff, they decide that

799
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:40,279
Speaker 1: they can send you, send you off the team. I guess,

800
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, that's that's how the left

801
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:46,920
Speaker 1: does it. There's this there's this willingness to change one's

802
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 1: identity politics on the left, based really on what the

803
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,560
Speaker 1: left says your identity is. They they just determined as

804
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:59,359
Speaker 1: you go along. But here is Mica who watches Morning Joe.

805
00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:02,040
Speaker 1: So I mean, I really mean that, who thinks that

806
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:06,880
Speaker 1: they get insight and clarity and they're watching, you know,

807
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:10,760
Speaker 1: nice people by the way, people that you really people

808
00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:16,080
Speaker 1: that I don't know. I will I won't. I won't

809
00:50:16,080 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 1: go down there. There's the there's a whole path here,

810
00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,360
Speaker 1: and I know I don't. I don't like the whole

811
00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,000
Speaker 1: You work together, you both got families, but hey, let's

812
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 1: abandon the family, you know, but let's let's go past that,

813
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:30,560
Speaker 1: because I look, I understand Republicans, no point to Republican

814
00:50:30,760 --> 00:50:33,359
Speaker 1: point to the presidents. They look at his personalized I'll

815
00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,400
Speaker 1: leave that out. I'll leave all that stuff aside. But

816
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:39,120
Speaker 1: I just in particular the whole Morning Joe thing, and yeah,

817
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:42,759
Speaker 1: I think it's unseemly, but okay, but here's Mica play

818
00:50:42,760 --> 00:50:44,800
Speaker 1: clip five. I want to just share my thoughts in

819
00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:49,400
Speaker 1: the eighteen midterms and women knowing their value. It's not

820
00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:51,600
Speaker 1: a coincidence that some of the biggest winners of the

821
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:56,359
Speaker 1: night are women, many first time candidates inspired to run

822
00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,120
Speaker 1: to put a check on Donald Trump. It's a vast

823
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: majority of the history makers were Democrats. Dead Hallen, the

824
00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 1: first Native American woman elected to Congress, Ianna Presley, the

825
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:11,000
Speaker 1: first woman of color in Massachusetts, il hand Omar in Minnesota,

826
00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:15,520
Speaker 1: and Rashida delib in Michigan. Muslim Americans breaking barriers, women

827
00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:19,480
Speaker 1: breaking barriers, Johanna Hayes, who went from teacher of the

828
00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: Year to Connecticut's first African American Democrat in Congress. And

829
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:28,440
Speaker 1: there's also Nancy Pelosi that story this morning, likely getting

830
00:51:28,480 --> 00:51:32,680
Speaker 1: back the gavel she left off. Young Kim was the

831
00:51:32,719 --> 00:51:36,800
Speaker 1: first Korean American in Congress, a Republican from California's thirty

832
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:40,520
Speaker 1: ninth congressional district. So okay, you might say to me,

833
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:44,040
Speaker 1: all right, buck, hold on, hold on, Maybe it's in oversight.

834
00:51:45,040 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: My shay. Well, okay, I could be persuaded that that dry.

835
00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 1: I could be persuaded that this time around it was

836
00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:59,359
Speaker 1: in fact and an oversight. Um. But there's a I'm

837
00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 1: not saying that it was. I'm just saying you could

838
00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:04,960
Speaker 1: persuade me. I'm open to that possibility. But then you

839
00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:08,240
Speaker 1: look a little bit at what is going on here

840
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,760
Speaker 1: with the way the left is talking about this election,

841
00:52:11,719 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 1: and there is a lot of when I refer to

842
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:15,400
Speaker 1: blue check Twitter by the way, for those of you

843
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:16,960
Speaker 1: who aren't Twitter people, which I know is a lot

844
00:52:17,000 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 1: of this audience, because you know, why, why be on

845
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 1: Twitter unless you work your media. Although those of you

846
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,719
Speaker 1: are on Twitter tweet at me, say hi, I like

847
00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:28,760
Speaker 1: talking to you. Um. A lot of blue check media

848
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:33,080
Speaker 1: was pointing out that in the Cruise and O'Rourke race,

849
00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 1: as well as other races, there was a very clear

850
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 1: split between um minority um my minorities across the board

851
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:48,040
Speaker 1: who went overwhelmingly for Democrats. I mean in the Ourora

852
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 1: Cruise race, for example, Cruise is a Latino folks. By

853
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:55,239
Speaker 1: the way, this always gets lost Beato is a fake Latino.

854
00:52:55,719 --> 00:53:01,360
Speaker 1: Cruise is an actual Latino, and Latino men went for

855
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:05,160
Speaker 1: m Latino women went sixty six percent for O'Rourke. White

856
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:10,320
Speaker 1: women went for Cruiz. And there's a similar dynamic in

857
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:14,359
Speaker 1: the Gillham race, where you had a pretty healthy percentage

858
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,560
Speaker 1: in terms of you know that the overall tally, a

859
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:21,760
Speaker 1: pretty solid percentage of white women went for de santiss

860
00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:27,399
Speaker 1: and and did not go for Gillum. And the way

861
00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,799
Speaker 1: that this has talked about by the blue check which

862
00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:32,600
Speaker 1: means journalists, right, it means that people that are verified

863
00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 1: on Twitter um official Official Twitter were saying that white

864
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:41,319
Speaker 1: women are disappointment this one guy, Trayvon free Rope, Black

865
00:53:41,320 --> 00:53:45,359
Speaker 1: women voted for betto white women did what white women do?

866
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:49,600
Speaker 1: What what is that supposed to mean? Well, what exactly

867
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,839
Speaker 1: is is you know, I'm I'm I'm trying to just

868
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of what that white women did. Well,

869
00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:00,399
Speaker 1: what does that mean? Why is it all right? Why

870
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:04,440
Speaker 1: is it all right for white women to be called

871
00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:09,880
Speaker 1: out in this way that that strikes me as crossing

872
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,240
Speaker 1: a line in a pretty profound way. You know, they're

873
00:54:13,239 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 1: gonna they're gonna blame white females for the loss in

874
00:54:16,880 --> 00:54:20,440
Speaker 1: some of these places. The Women's March, you know, the

875
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 1: Women's March the pink hat wearers. They wrote, quote, there

876
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:27,160
Speaker 1: needs to be accountability and an honest reckoning. There's a

877
00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: lot of work to do white women, a lot of learning,

878
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:33,480
Speaker 1: a lot of growing. Uh, what do you mean that

879
00:54:33,600 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: white women have a lot of learning to do? Oh,

880
00:54:35,719 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 1: because white women went seventy six percent for Kemp, fifty

881
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:47,120
Speaker 1: for Cruise, for DeSantis, Black women went for O'Rourke, percent

882
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 1: for Abrams, pent for for Gillham, and this one journalist

883
00:54:52,040 --> 00:54:57,160
Speaker 1: here wrote white women gonna white? When does the hostility

884
00:54:57,280 --> 00:55:00,799
Speaker 1: toward whiteness in the media we I know there are

885
00:55:00,800 --> 00:55:03,240
Speaker 1: a lot of white people in the media that also

886
00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:04,799
Speaker 1: do this, but they do it in a way that

887
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 1: they think that they're essentially earning virtue signaling points all

888
00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:10,600
Speaker 1: the time and they're not part of the bad whiteness.

889
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 1: But when does the hostility to whiteness in the media

890
00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 1: and the culture more broadly become something we're allowed to

891
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:20,799
Speaker 1: talk about because it is pretty openly celebrated now in

892
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:23,920
Speaker 1: some corners. There are a lot of places where you

893
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 1: can bash whiteness as almost a disease, as an affliction.

894
00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:32,840
Speaker 1: We have to overcome whiteness, we have to d privilege

895
00:55:32,920 --> 00:55:37,239
Speaker 1: whiteness that's not a big leap from We have to

896
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:42,240
Speaker 1: overcome whiteness too. There's a problem with white people and

897
00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,920
Speaker 1: that leads us down a very very ugly path, and

898
00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:50,239
Speaker 1: that's where the left is taking us. I think you

899
00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,160
Speaker 1: should let me run the country. You run CNN, and

900
00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:59,360
Speaker 1: if you did it, well a question, are you worried?

901
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,760
Speaker 1: That's enough? That's president as one of the other folks.

902
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:06,360
Speaker 1: That's enough part of me, ma'am, that's enough, this president.

903
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,440
Speaker 1: I had one of the ds I may ask on

904
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 1: on the Russia investigation? Are you concerned that that you may?

905
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:16,239
Speaker 1: I'm not concerned about anything you have investigation because it's

906
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 1: a hoax. Are that's enough? Put down the mic? This president?

907
00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:24,880
Speaker 1: Are you worried about indictments coming down in this investigation? Mr? President,

908
00:56:25,600 --> 00:56:28,120
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. CNN should be ashamed of itself

909
00:56:28,320 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 1: having you working for them. You are a rude, terrible person.

910
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:36,960
Speaker 1: You shouldn't be working for CNN. Go ahead. I think

911
00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:39,360
Speaker 1: that's your very rude person. The way you treat Sarah

912
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:42,439
Speaker 1: Huckabee is horrible, and the way you treat other people

913
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:45,200
Speaker 1: are horrible. You shouldn't treat people that way. Go ahead,

914
00:56:45,520 --> 00:56:48,360
Speaker 1: and Peter in Jim's defense. I've traveled with him and

915
00:56:48,360 --> 00:56:50,360
Speaker 1: watched him. He's a diligent reporter who bustles. I'm not

916
00:56:50,400 --> 00:56:53,360
Speaker 1: a big fan of yours either, So to be honest,

917
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:55,880
Speaker 1: ask your question, if I can you repeatedly start you

918
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,399
Speaker 1: are the best, Mr. President, You repeatedly over the course

919
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:03,800
Speaker 1: of just down place. Well, when you when you report

920
00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:07,480
Speaker 1: fake news, No, when you report fake news, which CNN

921
00:57:07,520 --> 00:57:09,920
Speaker 1: does a lot, you are the enemy of the people.

922
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 1: Trump is completely in the right in this whole exchange.

923
00:57:13,680 --> 00:57:15,480
Speaker 1: And and the video, by the way, which I know

924
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:17,400
Speaker 1: we're doing a radio show, so I can't show it

925
00:57:17,400 --> 00:57:22,040
Speaker 1: to you, but the video is very uh worthwhile because

926
00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:25,800
Speaker 1: it shows that not only do you have the usual

927
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:33,360
Speaker 1: Acosta crazy rude grandstanding going on, and just also is

928
00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 1: belligerents toward the president. I mean, the the press corps

929
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 1: is seething with hostility toward the president all the time.

930
00:57:42,680 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 1: I mean, not all of them. They are obviously some

931
00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:48,840
Speaker 1: conservatives and some reasonably neutral members of the press corps

932
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:51,200
Speaker 1: do exist, at least in the questions they ask. I mean,

933
00:57:51,200 --> 00:57:54,040
Speaker 1: I think they're still big libs, but they do ask

934
00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:57,840
Speaker 1: real questions. But you get into the the acostas and

935
00:57:57,960 --> 00:58:01,480
Speaker 1: the April Ryan's and some of these there's that they

936
00:58:01,640 --> 00:58:04,840
Speaker 1: just take every opportunity to say, Mr President, you know,

937
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:07,320
Speaker 1: I'm from CNN, when did you stop eating your wife? Sir?

938
00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,600
Speaker 1: And they wanted to stand up there and just take it.

939
00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:14,920
Speaker 1: And thank god the president does not. I mean, Acosta

940
00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:17,720
Speaker 1: should be ashamed of himself, but the guy is incapable

941
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:19,080
Speaker 1: of shame. I mean the guy. First of all, the

942
00:58:19,080 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 1: guy's not very smart at all. It's not not even

943
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 1: a little bit impressive. He's just he's just somebody who's

944
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 1: played the game over at CNN kind of looks the part,

945
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:31,680
Speaker 1: sounds the part of the corresponding, and you know, CNN

946
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:36,600
Speaker 1: uses him for this purpose. CNN is is really a

947
00:58:37,480 --> 00:58:40,480
Speaker 1: The whole thing is an act over there. There's all

948
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,760
Speaker 1: we're objective journalists. Oh, we're just bringing you the facts

949
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:46,240
Speaker 1: and the truth that this is all nonsense, it's all garbage,

950
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,760
Speaker 1: the whole place. It's really been overcome and really overtaken

951
00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:52,480
Speaker 1: by the dark side. I mean not to get to

952
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:55,439
Speaker 1: star Star Wars on you here, but it has been

953
00:58:56,080 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 1: overcome by an anti trump mania. It wasn't always Wait,

954
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 1: people ask me Buck you work at seeing how can

955
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: you have done that said, well, initially I was doing

956
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,560
Speaker 1: counter terroristm analysis and yeah, they're too left wing for

957
00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 1: my taste on that, but at least they would agree

958
00:59:08,920 --> 00:59:11,920
Speaker 1: with me. Yeah, the the bombing of that bus or

959
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,280
Speaker 1: that vehicle attack or whatever that happened in Europe. You

960
00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,200
Speaker 1: know that's really bad, Buck, tell us about it, and

961
00:59:16,200 --> 00:59:18,680
Speaker 1: that I could do over there. The moment that I

962
00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:22,360
Speaker 1: shifted over into the political world at CNN. Of but

963
00:59:22,520 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 1: you know, conservative political commentator from the Blaze, all of

964
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:26,800
Speaker 1: a sudden, that's what they used to say. I'm like,

965
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:31,080
Speaker 1: actually got a nationally syndicated radio show, but slow your role, um.

966
00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 1: But you know, they would say these things that they

967
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,200
Speaker 1: bring me on, and then I realized, oh, this is

968
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 1: all just a sham. They don't want a conversation, they

969
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:44,000
Speaker 1: don't want to dialogue. This is creating a false perception

970
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:47,720
Speaker 1: of open debate and dialogue and journalistic integrity for a

971
00:59:47,840 --> 00:59:52,240
Speaker 1: left wing audience that can't handle the truth. That's what

972
00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,160
Speaker 1: it is. That is CNN's mission, that is what it

973
00:59:54,200 --> 00:59:58,600
Speaker 1: pedals day in and day out. But that press conference

974
00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:03,560
Speaker 1: was by anyone objective standard, completely disgraceful. I mean utterly

975
01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 1: and completely abhorrently disgraceful. Jim Acosta, acting like a maniac,

976
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 1: wouldn't give the microphone. There's a young White House staffer.

977
01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 1: The young woman looks to be about you know, and

978
01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 1: she comes over and the President of the United States

979
01:00:20,840 --> 01:00:23,400
Speaker 1: is saying, Okay, I'm not taking your question anymore. Please

980
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 1: pass the microphone. And she does as she is instructed

981
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 1: by the commander in chief to take the microphone and

982
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:35,120
Speaker 1: pass to someone else. And Acosta grabs her by the

983
01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:38,160
Speaker 1: arm and kind of pushes her arm away and grips

984
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:41,120
Speaker 1: the microphone like a toddler who doesn't want to give

985
01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:45,920
Speaker 1: up a toy in the sandbox. It's not his toy.

986
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 1: But Jim Acosta is a toddler. It's the very overpaid

987
01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:54,120
Speaker 1: one who gets far too much of our attention. I mean,

988
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:56,800
Speaker 1: he immediately launches into this, Mr President, you know, you're

989
01:00:57,000 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 1: what you said about the caravan is racist, Jim. That's

990
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:04,640
Speaker 1: opie me. That's editorializing. That's not a question. What he

991
01:01:04,720 --> 01:01:07,640
Speaker 1: does is not posing questions to the Presidented States to

992
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:11,480
Speaker 1: get information for the American people. As a journalist. He

993
01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 1: is a pundit who is too cowardly to say that's

994
01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:17,760
Speaker 1: what he is, because then he'd have to actually engage

995
01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:21,240
Speaker 1: in intellectual debate. I would shred these clowns. For example,

996
01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 1: anyone at CNN, in any anchor chair on these issues,

997
01:01:26,160 --> 01:01:29,440
Speaker 1: I would crush them. They're just not very smart. They

998
01:01:29,560 --> 01:01:33,720
Speaker 1: all hide behind this facade of journalistic integrity. They all

999
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:37,640
Speaker 1: hide behind this I'm neutral. At least the Van Jones is.

1000
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 1: At least the UH I can't remember her name, the

1001
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:44,160
Speaker 1: one who's I used to be on all the time. Anyway,

1002
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:45,880
Speaker 1: I can't remember that. I can't remember some of the

1003
01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:48,000
Speaker 1: names of it. But you at least the opinion people

1004
01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,240
Speaker 1: that they call them analysts, which is to kind of

1005
01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:53,800
Speaker 1: elevate them as not being like, you know, pundits. They

1006
01:01:53,800 --> 01:01:57,800
Speaker 1: have to defend their ideas in some level. The worst

1007
01:01:57,800 --> 01:01:59,960
Speaker 1: are the anchors and the correspondence. I mean they're the

1008
01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 1: ones that are really and now there's some nice correspondence

1009
01:02:02,440 --> 01:02:04,080
Speaker 1: over there too, and there's some nice anchors. It's not

1010
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:07,240
Speaker 1: all of them, all right, you know this is there.

1011
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 1: There's some decent there's some decent folks on air over

1012
01:02:09,880 --> 01:02:11,680
Speaker 1: at CNN. So I don't want because some of you

1013
01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:13,480
Speaker 1: say Buck Wi, you know, I saw you with so

1014
01:02:13,600 --> 01:02:15,520
Speaker 1: and so. You're nicest, so and so I have some

1015
01:02:15,600 --> 01:02:17,640
Speaker 1: friends over there, you know, some of my friends over there.

1016
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,720
Speaker 1: But you run down their main line up, you know,

1017
01:02:20,840 --> 01:02:24,040
Speaker 1: you run down the big names and the hashtag resistance

1018
01:02:24,080 --> 01:02:30,800
Speaker 1: over at CNN. Acosta, Tapper, Uh, Cooper Lemon, Cuomo camar Rosso,

1019
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:35,840
Speaker 1: Allison Camarossa. Uh, They're they're all making assets of themselves

1020
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:37,960
Speaker 1: on a regular basis, and none of them are particularly

1021
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:41,840
Speaker 1: interesting or smart. And the whole thing is this facade

1022
01:02:41,880 --> 01:02:45,800
Speaker 1: of we're just journalists. Yeah right, please slow slow your

1023
01:02:45,880 --> 01:02:49,200
Speaker 1: role just journalists. Like when Jake Tapper was saying that

1024
01:02:49,880 --> 01:02:52,320
Speaker 1: nobody at CNN was holding a president responsible for those

1025
01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,360
Speaker 1: pipe bombs that God said hours after the president of

1026
01:02:55,440 --> 01:02:58,080
Speaker 1: CNN released a statement saying the president needs to the

1027
01:02:58,120 --> 01:03:01,520
Speaker 1: President Nited States needs to know that his words have consequences.

1028
01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, but no one's holding Trump responses. It's just

1029
01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:10,880
Speaker 1: it's just slimy. It were just slimy, very very frustrating,

1030
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,520
Speaker 1: very very annoying. Um, but I mean a Costa also

1031
01:03:15,960 --> 01:03:19,920
Speaker 1: get you know, he essentially man handles this this woman.

1032
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,280
Speaker 1: I mean there's one person who referred to it as

1033
01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 1: a karate chop, which is is pretty true. You know,

1034
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:28,960
Speaker 1: Katie Pavlos over at Fox wrote, the only thing physical

1035
01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 1: about this video is Jim Acosta slamming down the arm

1036
01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:33,720
Speaker 1: of a woman doing her job. She's took, Katie told

1037
01:03:33,760 --> 01:03:37,320
Speaker 1: me right. NBC News they reported it as quote White

1038
01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:40,840
Speaker 1: House aid grabs and tries to physically remove a microphone

1039
01:03:40,880 --> 01:03:44,800
Speaker 1: from CNN correspondent during a conscientious exchange with President Trump

1040
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,200
Speaker 1: at a news conference. I think by the way, I

1041
01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:50,320
Speaker 1: think they changed that headline. I think that that was

1042
01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:52,640
Speaker 1: I think they stealth edited that headline because that's not

1043
01:03:52,680 --> 01:03:55,120
Speaker 1: what I remember. I mean, that's bad enough, but that's

1044
01:03:55,160 --> 01:04:00,760
Speaker 1: not what I remembered before. So that's, uh, that's what

1045
01:04:00,880 --> 01:04:03,120
Speaker 1: you're dealing with now with the mainstream media. That's how

1046
01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:09,320
Speaker 1: they operate here. And it is indeed very frustrating to

1047
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:11,480
Speaker 1: watch this play out. But I just I am so

1048
01:04:11,760 --> 01:04:19,520
Speaker 1: thankful that President Trump will call these jokers out. And

1049
01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:22,960
Speaker 1: you know, look, he's he's not a despot. A despot

1050
01:04:23,080 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 1: would Saddam style. You know who's saying, not Barack Hussein,

1051
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:31,840
Speaker 1: but Saddam Hussein. Uh, Saddam style, you know, march people

1052
01:04:31,920 --> 01:04:33,880
Speaker 1: out and no one knows where they go, right, I

1053
01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:37,560
Speaker 1: mean that that's a despotism, a despotism would be Trump

1054
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 1: revoking all the press credentials from these people and then

1055
01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:44,120
Speaker 1: telling them if they don't stop criticize them, they're gonna

1056
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:45,880
Speaker 1: go to prison. And by the way, if Trump did that,

1057
01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 1: I would vociferously and with all the the the platform

1058
01:04:52,160 --> 01:04:55,360
Speaker 1: I have denounced that and work against that. But Trump

1059
01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,120
Speaker 1: is never gonna do that. That's like saying, well, you know,

1060
01:04:58,160 --> 01:04:59,520
Speaker 1: would you guys still listen to me if I came

1061
01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:02,000
Speaker 1: in ans like, so, guess what, guys, I'm a huge

1062
01:05:02,080 --> 01:05:06,560
Speaker 1: lib now and actually I think that I'm a one

1063
01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:10,280
Speaker 1: legged Samoan from the seventeenth century. You might say, well, Buck,

1064
01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:12,800
Speaker 1: that doesn't really comport with reality. I don't think, you know,

1065
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:16,600
Speaker 1: but you you probably wouldn't still think the show was great, right,

1066
01:05:16,640 --> 01:05:20,480
Speaker 1: But yeah, if if Trump was actually a despot, I'd

1067
01:05:20,520 --> 01:05:23,880
Speaker 1: have a problem with it. He's not, though, He's not

1068
01:05:24,000 --> 01:05:27,240
Speaker 1: a despot, and I'm not living in the seventeenth century,

1069
01:05:27,280 --> 01:05:29,200
Speaker 1: so we don't really have to worry about these things.

1070
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:32,400
Speaker 1: We don't really have to be concerned about it. I did.

1071
01:05:32,440 --> 01:05:35,240
Speaker 1: I did see something as an aside, that there's a

1072
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 1: guy I think he's sixty nine and he wants Tinder,

1073
01:05:37,480 --> 01:05:38,960
Speaker 1: which is a dating app for those of you who

1074
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:43,120
Speaker 1: don't know, uh so, it's an online dating service. He

1075
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:48,480
Speaker 1: wants a judge to legally change his age. I don't

1076
01:05:48,520 --> 01:05:50,200
Speaker 1: even know the details here, but I knew this was

1077
01:05:50,280 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 1: coming because he wants to be in his forties because

1078
01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 1: they'll have much more success, he thinks, getting dates with

1079
01:05:54,840 --> 01:05:56,280
Speaker 1: the kind of women he wants. I'm sure he wants

1080
01:05:56,320 --> 01:05:58,320
Speaker 1: to date thirty some things, or maybe even twenty some things,

1081
01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 1: but he's sixty nine anyway. You know, the the delusions

1082
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:04,919
Speaker 1: about gender or are soon to be extended to race

1083
01:06:05,040 --> 01:06:07,320
Speaker 1: and age as well, and the Libs are gonna have

1084
01:06:07,360 --> 01:06:11,320
Speaker 1: a really hard time parsing and explaining and defending their

1085
01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:16,200
Speaker 1: various positions on that. But I I have to say,

1086
01:06:16,320 --> 01:06:20,040
Speaker 1: I'm uh, I'm just so, I'm so pleased there the president,

1087
01:06:20,080 --> 01:06:21,840
Speaker 1: he had this press conference, he laid it all down

1088
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: and what he said needed to be said. And when

1089
01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,560
Speaker 1: he calls a cost to a rude, terrible person, He's right.

1090
01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:30,640
Speaker 1: Acosta is a rude, terrible person. It is such an

1091
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:36,560
Speaker 1: honor and he and and and any CNN journal should

1092
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:40,080
Speaker 1: feel honored to be given access to the President Nited

1093
01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 1: States in this way, to be able to ask them

1094
01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:44,680
Speaker 1: the questions that they do to present the American people

1095
01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,280
Speaker 1: with information. You know, there is an important role here.

1096
01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:51,560
Speaker 1: It is important that our government is put on put

1097
01:06:51,600 --> 01:06:54,600
Speaker 1: in a position to answer questions. And but that doesn't

1098
01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,640
Speaker 1: mean that they have to take abuse their human beings too.

1099
01:06:57,760 --> 01:07:00,320
Speaker 1: You know, it's not that Jim Acosta and others, April

1100
01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:03,640
Speaker 1: Ryan and this other guy, Peter Alexander, that's the guy's name,

1101
01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:06,919
Speaker 1: one of these people who just he clearly he looks

1102
01:07:07,000 --> 01:07:09,880
Speaker 1: like what NBC thinks a news anchor should look like.

1103
01:07:10,040 --> 01:07:13,640
Speaker 1: Therefore he has this job. Other than that seems very unimpressive, fellow,

1104
01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 1: But they don't understand how lucky they are. I mean,

1105
01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 1: that's one of the big problems I have with a

1106
01:07:21,320 --> 01:07:23,960
Speaker 1: lot of these people in the media is that they

1107
01:07:24,080 --> 01:07:27,640
Speaker 1: think that they're they think they're really special and really important,

1108
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,800
Speaker 1: and for most of them, they're just very lucky. I'm

1109
01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:34,440
Speaker 1: very lucky to do what I do, and I'm not

1110
01:07:34,760 --> 01:07:37,640
Speaker 1: getting paid millions and millions of dollars to do a

1111
01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:41,280
Speaker 1: job that hundreds and hundreds of other people could do

1112
01:07:41,360 --> 01:07:43,000
Speaker 1: just as well, right, I mean, doing a three hour

1113
01:07:43,120 --> 01:07:45,280
Speaker 1: radio show is distinct to the individual who does it,

1114
01:07:46,120 --> 01:07:48,680
Speaker 1: standing there and asking questions the President United States for

1115
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:53,760
Speaker 1: a network network, cable show or a cable news channel

1116
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:56,880
Speaker 1: is something that, yeah, some people do slightly better than others,

1117
01:07:56,960 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 1: but a lot of people can do that job, a

1118
01:07:59,480 --> 01:08:03,200
Speaker 1: lot of people. So people there should be a humility

1119
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,800
Speaker 1: that comes with this profession. And there's just it's so lacking.

1120
01:08:06,960 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 1: It's so lacking over at scene, and it really is.

1121
01:08:11,160 --> 01:08:12,960
Speaker 1: And I mentioned this guy Peter Alexander by the way,

1122
01:08:13,040 --> 01:08:15,040
Speaker 1: he gives you more of this, more of what you

1123
01:08:15,640 --> 01:08:18,240
Speaker 1: would expect from the other side where he asks a

1124
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:22,479
Speaker 1: question that's not a question, it's an editorial statement. I e.

1125
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:25,639
Speaker 1: It's I think you're terrible. What do you think? Mr President?

1126
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:29,360
Speaker 1: Play clip nineteen. It's the same press conference, Mr President,

1127
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:31,719
Speaker 1: over the course over the course of the last several

1128
01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:33,880
Speaker 1: days of the campaign, Sir, Sir, at the end of

1129
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:37,520
Speaker 1: the campaign, you repeatedly said that Americans need to fear democrats.

1130
01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:40,479
Speaker 1: You said Democrats would unleash a wave of violent crime

1131
01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:45,120
Speaker 1: that endangerous families everywhere. Why are you why are you

1132
01:08:45,200 --> 01:08:47,840
Speaker 1: pitting Americans against one another? SI? What are you trying

1133
01:08:47,840 --> 01:08:51,040
Speaker 1: to be him? Let me just tell you very simple,

1134
01:08:51,640 --> 01:08:55,040
Speaker 1: because they're very weak on crime, because they have often

1135
01:08:55,120 --> 01:08:58,560
Speaker 1: suggested members and people within the Democrat Party at a

1136
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,759
Speaker 1: high level have six stid getting rid of Ice, getting

1137
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:05,000
Speaker 1: rid of law enforcement. That's not gonna happen. Okay, we

1138
01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:07,160
Speaker 1: want to be strong on the borders, we want to

1139
01:09:07,200 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 1: be strong on law enforcement. And I want to I

1140
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:13,240
Speaker 1: want to cherish Ice because Ice does a fantastic job.

1141
01:09:14,479 --> 01:09:18,040
Speaker 1: Notice how he was asking what could be considered a

1142
01:09:18,080 --> 01:09:20,400
Speaker 1: real question, and then he goes, why are you pitting

1143
01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:24,280
Speaker 1: Americans against each other? Well, you could always say that

1144
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:26,800
Speaker 1: when one member of one political party criticized the other

1145
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:31,160
Speaker 1: political party, this is a non question question. Why are

1146
01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,960
Speaker 1: you being so divisive? The media likes to do that too. Well,

1147
01:09:34,040 --> 01:09:36,720
Speaker 1: we're in a divided political atmosphere, don't mean, why are

1148
01:09:36,720 --> 01:09:39,000
Speaker 1: he being so divisive? So I was like saying, why

1149
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:41,559
Speaker 1: are you so mean and disagreeing with the other side

1150
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:45,439
Speaker 1: when when you really break this down, you can see

1151
01:09:45,560 --> 01:09:49,360
Speaker 1: just how transparent this whole thing is. I was glad.

1152
01:09:49,439 --> 01:09:52,760
Speaker 1: I was glad that Acosta got what was coming to

1153
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:55,680
Speaker 1: him in this one. It was it was definitely what

1154
01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:59,600
Speaker 1: needed to happen. And unfortunately it benefits Acosta because the

1155
01:09:59,680 --> 01:10:03,680
Speaker 1: liberal idiots that watch him and the executives Zucker and

1156
01:10:03,760 --> 01:10:06,720
Speaker 1: co over at CNN who signed his paychecks think that

1157
01:10:06,800 --> 01:10:10,720
Speaker 1: it's great. This is great. They're all for it. So

1158
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:13,439
Speaker 1: you know what, well, they both want to be They

1159
01:10:13,479 --> 01:10:15,800
Speaker 1: want to be pitied and they want to be considered brave.

1160
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:23,320
Speaker 1: That's what these journalists are striving for. And it's just preposterous. Hey,

1161
01:10:23,400 --> 01:10:25,920
Speaker 1: producer Mike back in the house, I know you were.

1162
01:10:26,080 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 1: You were running some clips there for a second, so

1163
01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:29,920
Speaker 1: so you watched this in real time today too. I

1164
01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 1: was thinking. I was like, I was like, oh, I know,

1165
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:34,439
Speaker 1: producer Mike is loving the Acosta SmackDown here. Yeah. Man,

1166
01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:37,479
Speaker 1: we were going wild. It was amazing. It was it

1167
01:10:37,560 --> 01:10:40,400
Speaker 1: was epic. It was really one of the you know,

1168
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:42,599
Speaker 1: it's almost jaw dropping when you could and you could

1169
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,320
Speaker 1: see the tension. You could just see it through the

1170
01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:48,120
Speaker 1: TV and one of the TV angles. I'm sure you

1171
01:10:48,240 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 1: noticed that. How's called close day were it was just

1172
01:10:50,640 --> 01:10:52,439
Speaker 1: like I feel like I was like a boxing match

1173
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:55,160
Speaker 1: was about to break out. Oh absolutely, you know, you know,

1174
01:10:55,320 --> 01:10:58,200
Speaker 1: I think by the way, you know, we've obviously got

1175
01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:02,559
Speaker 1: Jeff Sessions gone and and the other the other big

1176
01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:05,519
Speaker 1: name it's always been said, is is gonna you know,

1177
01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:07,759
Speaker 1: leave the White House of Sarah Huckaby Sanders. She's about

1178
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,880
Speaker 1: to be out. According to me. That's according to my

1179
01:11:09,920 --> 01:11:11,479
Speaker 1: sources in the White House, and I've been but I

1180
01:11:11,560 --> 01:11:13,559
Speaker 1: mean it's been reported. I mean I've heard it. People

1181
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:15,200
Speaker 1: have heard it from other people too. But I've also

1182
01:11:15,240 --> 01:11:17,599
Speaker 1: talked to White House folks and they said, that's that's

1183
01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:20,519
Speaker 1: coming for a long time. Uh. I think that the

1184
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,240
Speaker 1: President is going to take on a lot more of

1185
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:27,600
Speaker 1: these briefings himself. I think the President realizes that the

1186
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,160
Speaker 1: best thing for him is is when the American people

1187
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:33,840
Speaker 1: see the way these maniacs act and they're really doing

1188
01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:35,880
Speaker 1: it to the President of United States, what do you think, man?

1189
01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:38,400
Speaker 1: I couldn't I like it? Yeah, I couldn't agree more.

1190
01:11:38,920 --> 01:11:41,280
Speaker 1: He sees, you know, they're in their own little bubble

1191
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:44,000
Speaker 1: in that room, and they still have no clue how

1192
01:11:44,080 --> 01:11:47,200
Speaker 1: the American people view what they're doing. And I think

1193
01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:50,920
Speaker 1: they see him as being attacked and he's you know,

1194
01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:53,880
Speaker 1: they were cornering him today and he fought back and

1195
01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:57,479
Speaker 1: his bass loves that and they I mean, if last

1196
01:11:57,520 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 1: night didn't get him reelected, that you know, that could

1197
01:11:59,880 --> 01:12:01,360
Speaker 1: have today. I mean, it was amazing when he was

1198
01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:04,840
Speaker 1: doing Oh, Yeah, that was great. I mean it comes

1199
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:08,599
Speaker 1: after also the Democrat there was no blue wave. Clearly

1200
01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 1: it's not what they were hoping for there. Some of

1201
01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:14,640
Speaker 1: them were basically crying about this thing and then they

1202
01:12:14,680 --> 01:12:15,880
Speaker 1: come in and you know what it was meant. They

1203
01:12:15,920 --> 01:12:18,160
Speaker 1: were just trying to they were just trying to, uh

1204
01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:21,240
Speaker 1: make a statement about how they're still gonna be hashtag

1205
01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:23,360
Speaker 1: resistance and Trump was kind of like, bring it, fools,

1206
01:12:23,640 --> 01:12:27,080
Speaker 1: what you got? Yeah, that was amazing. I'm glad. I

1207
01:12:27,280 --> 01:12:28,519
Speaker 1: knew you were a joy it today too. But I

1208
01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:30,320
Speaker 1: was like I was gonna start texting. My phone was

1209
01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:32,439
Speaker 1: low and choice. But I'm like, Mike, have seen this one.

1210
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:33,960
Speaker 1: When we were talking at all, right, I told you

1211
01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:36,599
Speaker 1: like we were in like one of our offices here

1212
01:12:36,640 --> 01:12:39,080
Speaker 1: about three or four other people, and we just were

1213
01:12:39,160 --> 01:12:41,120
Speaker 1: like going back. We're like cheering like it was a

1214
01:12:41,120 --> 01:12:43,120
Speaker 1: sporting about. We're like, oh my god, and people are

1215
01:12:43,120 --> 01:12:44,680
Speaker 1: like walking by the office like sticking her head, like

1216
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:46,920
Speaker 1: what's going on in there? And I love it? Man,

1217
01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: all right, we got we got Harlan Hill. Guys gonna

1218
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:51,120
Speaker 1: drop some knowledge on what happened last night coming up

1219
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:54,000
Speaker 1: here in just a moment. It's a wonderful thing that

1220
01:12:54,120 --> 01:12:57,880
Speaker 1: you can send resumes anywhere, and you can post for jobs,

1221
01:12:57,920 --> 01:12:59,880
Speaker 1: you can apply for jobs, you can get involved in

1222
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:02,880
Speaker 1: the job market. But when you're hiring people, how do

1223
01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:05,519
Speaker 1: you know that you're getting the individual that you think

1224
01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,439
Speaker 1: you are right? All you're looking at is a piece

1225
01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,719
Speaker 1: of paper, maybe an email. Guess what people write stuff?

1226
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:13,640
Speaker 1: People present themselves in way. It's just not true. You

1227
01:13:13,800 --> 01:13:16,840
Speaker 1: need remember how small or large your company is. Those

1228
01:13:16,880 --> 01:13:19,040
Speaker 1: of you who are in the HR departments of huge,

1229
01:13:19,080 --> 01:13:21,880
Speaker 1: fortunate one companies, those of you've got ten employees. You

1230
01:13:21,960 --> 01:13:25,360
Speaker 1: gotta start up. You want to have a background investigation

1231
01:13:25,720 --> 01:13:28,759
Speaker 1: and vetting company you know you can trust. That's Global

1232
01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:33,599
Speaker 1: Verification Network. They're the only dual certified veteran owned company

1233
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:36,800
Speaker 1: in this space, all right, they are the ones you

1234
01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:39,599
Speaker 1: want to go to. I know the CEO personally. He's

1235
01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:43,160
Speaker 1: an incredibly quality guy, uh and he will make sure

1236
01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:46,200
Speaker 1: that your questions get answered through this whole process call

1237
01:13:46,320 --> 01:13:49,800
Speaker 1: eight seven seven six nine five one seven nine eight

1238
01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:55,040
Speaker 1: seven seven six nine five one one seven nine. So

1239
01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:59,040
Speaker 1: a lot of big things happened after the results were

1240
01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:01,519
Speaker 1: finally tallied last night. We've had a lot in the

1241
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:03,840
Speaker 1: news cycle to tackle. I want to bring in one

1242
01:14:03,840 --> 01:14:06,880
Speaker 1: of my favorite fellow Republican voices from here in the

1243
01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:08,880
Speaker 1: swamp to just help us make sense of it all.

1244
01:14:09,240 --> 01:14:12,800
Speaker 1: Our friend Harlan Hill is with us now. He is

1245
01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:18,480
Speaker 1: a Republican consultants also a member of the Trump twenty

1246
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:22,120
Speaker 1: Board of Advisors. Harlan great to have you back, my friend.

1247
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:25,719
Speaker 1: Thank you, Buck greaty with you. How are you feeling

1248
01:14:25,720 --> 01:14:27,880
Speaker 1: about all this and what what is your sense of

1249
01:14:27,920 --> 01:14:30,000
Speaker 1: where we are now? Yeah, we don't have to go

1250
01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,719
Speaker 1: through race by race, but okay, we gotta split split

1251
01:14:32,800 --> 01:14:35,320
Speaker 1: decision here house goes one way, set it goes the other.

1252
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:39,800
Speaker 1: How are things looking in Mago world? We'll I'll be

1253
01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:41,800
Speaker 1: honest with you. I had fully prepared myself for a

1254
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,200
Speaker 1: night that was much worse than well. We ended up

1255
01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:46,479
Speaker 1: getting um and all at all. I think it was

1256
01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,680
Speaker 1: mostly a watch between the Democrats and the Republicans, and

1257
01:14:49,760 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 1: we were promised the blue wave and what we talked

1258
01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:56,240
Speaker 1: with you know, I got a little small wave in

1259
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:58,840
Speaker 1: the House for the Democrats, but a nice wave for

1260
01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:01,680
Speaker 1: Republicans in the Senate, and the fact that we were

1261
01:15:01,680 --> 01:15:04,000
Speaker 1: able to hold onto a couple of key governors races

1262
01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:07,400
Speaker 1: in Ohio and Florida votes extremely well for US as

1263
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,960
Speaker 1: we looked at the President's reelection prospects. So I think

1264
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:12,920
Speaker 1: it was all in all a pretty good night slid.

1265
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:16,599
Speaker 1: And the President, as far as I can tell, I mean,

1266
01:15:16,720 --> 01:15:19,760
Speaker 1: he comes out and he says, look, people that in

1267
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:23,559
Speaker 1: prickly in the house, who we're trying to distance themselves

1268
01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:27,120
Speaker 1: from me, there's a very there's a lot of clear

1269
01:15:27,400 --> 01:15:30,559
Speaker 1: data now that they got they got wiped out essentially.

1270
01:15:30,640 --> 01:15:33,960
Speaker 1: You know, Comstock in Virginia mea love and he mentioned

1271
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,800
Speaker 1: a bunch of them by name. And in places where

1272
01:15:36,840 --> 01:15:41,840
Speaker 1: Trump showed up and and really campaigned hard, there were

1273
01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 1: very tangible benefits for those Republican candidates. So I feel

1274
01:15:47,080 --> 01:15:50,400
Speaker 1: like Trump wasn't on the ballot but yet had a

1275
01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:53,240
Speaker 1: positive effect for the party, which means that when Trump

1276
01:15:53,479 --> 01:15:57,280
Speaker 1: is once again on the ballot, Democrats better bring more

1277
01:15:57,320 --> 01:16:01,600
Speaker 1: than their a game. They've better bring somebody else's game. Absolutely,

1278
01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,400
Speaker 1: I mean, this is the party of Trump now. And

1279
01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:07,519
Speaker 1: if you were a Republican that it held on and

1280
01:16:08,000 --> 01:16:10,840
Speaker 1: tried to reflect the whole Republican party that had lost

1281
01:16:10,920 --> 01:16:13,120
Speaker 1: time and time again, you know, if you were one

1282
01:16:13,120 --> 01:16:16,840
Speaker 1: of those McCain acolytes or Romney and you you thought

1283
01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,519
Speaker 1: their brand of conservatism was going to save the party

1284
01:16:19,560 --> 01:16:22,120
Speaker 1: and and you know, lead us back to the White House. Um,

1285
01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:26,880
Speaker 1: you know you're irrelevant now and either you were primaried

1286
01:16:27,160 --> 01:16:30,720
Speaker 1: or you retired for last week you lost. And I

1287
01:16:30,800 --> 01:16:33,360
Speaker 1: think this is an important moment for the Republican Party

1288
01:16:33,400 --> 01:16:37,320
Speaker 1: as we reset. The President has assumed control and the

1289
01:16:37,439 --> 01:16:41,519
Speaker 1: Democrats have no leadership. To your point, I mean, it's

1290
01:16:41,760 --> 01:16:45,080
Speaker 1: it's unclear to me where that's going to even come from.

1291
01:16:45,120 --> 01:16:48,760
Speaker 1: Where's the next generation of talent for them? Where's the bench? Uh?

1292
01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:52,120
Speaker 1: You know, theoretically last night, going into last night, it

1293
01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:55,280
Speaker 1: was supposed to be Abrahams and Georgia. It was supposed

1294
01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:58,160
Speaker 1: to be a Gillum in Florida and Aurora, Texas. Those

1295
01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:01,680
Speaker 1: were the three saviors of the Democrat Party. And you know,

1296
01:17:01,760 --> 01:17:06,040
Speaker 1: people were speculating that some combination of them or them

1297
01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:09,120
Speaker 1: plus maybe a more establishment Democrat would make for a

1298
01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:13,680
Speaker 1: great ticket. All three of them lost. But even going

1299
01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:17,439
Speaker 1: beyond that, the leader of the Democratic Party in exile, uh,

1300
01:17:17,840 --> 01:17:22,200
Speaker 1: Barack Obama. Every single candidate that he supported that he

1301
01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:26,320
Speaker 1: went out in campaigned for lost last night. So while

1302
01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:29,960
Speaker 1: the President's popularity with his party is surging. The advocacy

1303
01:17:30,040 --> 01:17:33,120
Speaker 1: of his campaign is through the roof. Barack Obama is

1304
01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:37,240
Speaker 1: totally irrelevant. He couldn't pull any of these people across

1305
01:17:37,280 --> 01:17:41,320
Speaker 1: the finish line. The Democrats are in trouble. I think

1306
01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 1: the Democrats are definitely in trouble. And when I saw

1307
01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:45,760
Speaker 1: we we did a poll at the at the Hill,

1308
01:17:46,400 --> 01:17:50,160
Speaker 1: and the top the top contenders for who should run

1309
01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:55,720
Speaker 1: against Trump are Biden, Sanders and and and I mean

1310
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:58,639
Speaker 1: there's none of the above. And this is Democrats being

1311
01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,880
Speaker 1: so When none of the above is ist of the

1312
01:18:03,200 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 1: of the Democrat base in terms of who they think

1313
01:18:05,960 --> 01:18:08,639
Speaker 1: of the of the candidates that are currently under discussion

1314
01:18:08,680 --> 01:18:10,320
Speaker 1: should run against Trump, that tells you a lot. But

1315
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:12,000
Speaker 1: you know, I've got to also say, I mean Nancy

1316
01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:17,600
Speaker 1: Pelosi is something of a walking talking ad for Republicans.

1317
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:19,519
Speaker 1: I mean, I think that the more the more Pelosi

1318
01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,000
Speaker 1: we can see on the national stage in advance of

1319
01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:25,840
Speaker 1: the better. And I also think that we're heading toward

1320
01:18:26,479 --> 01:18:30,400
Speaker 1: a political stalemate here from a legislative point at least,

1321
01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:33,320
Speaker 1: where you know, there's all we're gonna be doing Harlem

1322
01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:37,200
Speaker 1: for the next two years is talking about investigations. You know,

1323
01:18:37,360 --> 01:18:41,559
Speaker 1: scandals real and imagined, and candidates because I don't think

1324
01:18:41,600 --> 01:18:45,640
Speaker 1: anything is really gonna get done. No, I mean not

1325
01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:47,400
Speaker 1: in the Congress at least. I mean, you know, Trump

1326
01:18:47,439 --> 01:18:51,000
Speaker 1: will do what he does. But right, well, and what's

1327
01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:55,280
Speaker 1: so frustrating about this is, you know, we're over three

1328
01:18:55,400 --> 01:18:57,920
Speaker 1: years into the Russia talk. I mean, this started before

1329
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,599
Speaker 1: the president even got elected. They were trying to plant

1330
01:19:00,680 --> 01:19:05,160
Speaker 1: seeds of doubt about the President's legitimacy before he even

1331
01:19:05,240 --> 01:19:10,000
Speaker 1: became president. And um, now it's reached a fevered pitch.

1332
01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:12,719
Speaker 1: People are starting to really tune it out. In mainland

1333
01:19:12,720 --> 01:19:14,840
Speaker 1: America when you look at the polling, they don't care.

1334
01:19:15,240 --> 01:19:17,120
Speaker 1: They want to move past this. They love the economy,

1335
01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:20,479
Speaker 1: they love the direction of the country. And you know,

1336
01:19:20,800 --> 01:19:24,839
Speaker 1: until the Democrats can prove provide a shred of evidence

1337
01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,960
Speaker 1: to substantiate any of the claims that they made against

1338
01:19:28,040 --> 01:19:32,160
Speaker 1: the president in terms of Russian conclusion, then people aren't

1339
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:36,520
Speaker 1: gonna care. And considering that we're two years into the investigation,

1340
01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:39,320
Speaker 1: we're three years into the talk of this, I don't

1341
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:42,640
Speaker 1: I have no confidence the Democrats have any ability to

1342
01:19:42,720 --> 01:19:46,680
Speaker 1: produce any of that evidence because it doesn't exist. You know,

1343
01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:49,680
Speaker 1: it doesn't exist, and so they can talk about this

1344
01:19:49,800 --> 01:19:54,120
Speaker 1: all they want. Voters don't give arrests behind about it,

1345
01:19:54,920 --> 01:19:58,000
Speaker 1: and uh, this provides an opening for the president. And

1346
01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:00,519
Speaker 1: what I love most about Nancy poul being in a

1347
01:20:00,600 --> 01:20:04,439
Speaker 1: position of leadership is one her caucus is incredibly divided.

1348
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:06,840
Speaker 1: They're over sixty Democrats in the House and said that

1349
01:20:06,880 --> 01:20:10,160
Speaker 1: they're going to oppose her her bid for leadership. There's

1350
01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:14,400
Speaker 1: gonna be a nasty fight. Um. And even if she

1351
01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:17,800
Speaker 1: is able to become secret she probably will be, her

1352
01:20:17,840 --> 01:20:20,080
Speaker 1: caucus is gonna be divided. They're going to be fighting,

1353
01:20:20,320 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 1: and her ability to keep this very slim majority that

1354
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:26,320
Speaker 1: she has together is in question. And the President is

1355
01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,639
Speaker 1: going to take advantage of that, as he always does,

1356
01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:31,160
Speaker 1: because he does best when he has a foil, when

1357
01:20:31,200 --> 01:20:34,160
Speaker 1: he has somebody, uh you know, to to pin to

1358
01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:37,040
Speaker 1: pin against him. I feel like what we saw today

1359
01:20:37,120 --> 01:20:42,200
Speaker 1: Harlan in that wildly entertaining but also really kind of

1360
01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:46,320
Speaker 1: disturbing press conference where the press that they're they're not

1361
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:49,479
Speaker 1: hiding it at all. I mean, it's been obvious that

1362
01:20:49,600 --> 01:20:52,720
Speaker 1: they're hostile to the president in a way where they

1363
01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:56,240
Speaker 1: are not just partisans, but they're rude and and they

1364
01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:59,839
Speaker 1: they really are making allegations in the form of questions

1365
01:21:00,040 --> 01:21:02,799
Speaker 1: ring press conferences. You know, so, sir, since you're a racist,

1366
01:21:03,000 --> 01:21:04,840
Speaker 1: what do you think about, you know, the price of

1367
01:21:05,520 --> 01:21:07,679
Speaker 1: of you know, soybeans right now? I mean that they'll

1368
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:10,639
Speaker 1: just it's so clear that they're trying to grant stand

1369
01:21:10,680 --> 01:21:12,519
Speaker 1: and take swipes the president. But what I think we

1370
01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:14,360
Speaker 1: saw today and it wasn't just a Costa there are

1371
01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:16,880
Speaker 1: some others there too, is we are now just heading

1372
01:21:16,960 --> 01:21:21,360
Speaker 1: into this this bare knuckle political fight that is going

1373
01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:24,800
Speaker 1: to culminate in election, and that's gonna be the defining

1374
01:21:25,439 --> 01:21:29,759
Speaker 1: conversation in American politics, which is just the partisan battle

1375
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:33,280
Speaker 1: over Trump. I don't see any unless there's some unforeseen

1376
01:21:33,320 --> 01:21:35,960
Speaker 1: unless we, you know, go to war with North Korea.

1377
01:21:36,040 --> 01:21:38,519
Speaker 1: I don't see something that's gonna distract from that or

1378
01:21:38,520 --> 01:21:43,280
Speaker 1: take us on a different path. Well, and look, we'll

1379
01:21:43,320 --> 01:21:45,600
Speaker 1: stop calling the media and people like Jim Acosta the

1380
01:21:45,720 --> 01:21:48,879
Speaker 1: enemy of the people when they stopped lying about the president,

1381
01:21:49,000 --> 01:21:53,240
Speaker 1: when they stopped slandering his supporters, um, when we stopped

1382
01:21:53,320 --> 01:21:56,800
Speaker 1: lying to their own viewers, um, which is exactly what

1383
01:21:56,960 --> 01:21:59,679
Speaker 1: CNN and other networks like them do. By the way,

1384
01:21:59,760 --> 01:22:02,960
Speaker 1: I'm you know, this firsthand. I'm sure because if you've

1385
01:22:02,960 --> 01:22:05,719
Speaker 1: been on CNN, you know that it's you know, typically

1386
01:22:06,120 --> 01:22:10,120
Speaker 1: seven Democrats against one Republican, which is the most dishonest

1387
01:22:10,200 --> 01:22:13,360
Speaker 1: portrayal of the country that you could provide to viewers possible.

1388
01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:16,840
Speaker 1: And they usually and they want the least effective Republican

1389
01:22:16,960 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 1: spokespersons that they can get. I mean, they either want

1390
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:22,160
Speaker 1: to never trump er. I mean they want something like

1391
01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:24,720
Speaker 1: Anna Navarro, who's a joke in a clown. But you know,

1392
01:22:25,160 --> 01:22:27,320
Speaker 1: I mean even people that will at least try to

1393
01:22:27,439 --> 01:22:31,080
Speaker 1: take a not even necessarily pro Trump, just not anti

1394
01:22:31,120 --> 01:22:33,720
Speaker 1: Trump point of view on the right, they generally want

1395
01:22:33,760 --> 01:22:36,080
Speaker 1: people who are punching bags were clay pigeons, as we

1396
01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:38,160
Speaker 1: say in the business. And it's just it's just gross

1397
01:22:38,800 --> 01:22:40,760
Speaker 1: and Tapper and Cooper and all the rest of them.

1398
01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:44,840
Speaker 1: They're just frauds. The whole thing is dishonest. Yeah, it is.

1399
01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:47,920
Speaker 1: And um, I'm glad the president is fighting back. You know,

1400
01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:50,320
Speaker 1: I've had enough of this, and I think his supporters

1401
01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:53,240
Speaker 1: have too. He's got a mandate to do this, He's

1402
01:22:53,280 --> 01:22:55,719
Speaker 1: got a mandate to push back. I mean a cost

1403
01:22:55,920 --> 01:22:58,720
Speaker 1: was up there. Uh, This poor girl that works for

1404
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:01,160
Speaker 1: in the White House com shop went to go retrieve

1405
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:04,200
Speaker 1: the microphone because it was time for another reporter to

1406
01:23:04,240 --> 01:23:06,599
Speaker 1: ask questions, because you know, a cost had his chance

1407
01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:08,640
Speaker 1: to ask a question. The President answered it, and it

1408
01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:11,800
Speaker 1: was time to move on. And if you watch the video,

1409
01:23:11,920 --> 01:23:14,760
Speaker 1: looks like he assaulted this girl. He pushed her arm down,

1410
01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:17,280
Speaker 1: grabbed the mic back with two hands. He got very

1411
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:20,000
Speaker 1: aggressive and physical with this young lady. And you know,

1412
01:23:20,520 --> 01:23:23,240
Speaker 1: it's it's reached the point where he is just out

1413
01:23:23,320 --> 01:23:27,280
Speaker 1: of control. He's rude, he's aggressive, and he's getting increasingly

1414
01:23:27,360 --> 01:23:30,320
Speaker 1: physical in these in these press conferences, and and TN

1415
01:23:30,400 --> 01:23:32,320
Speaker 1: in better wake up and start doing something about it,

1416
01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,880
Speaker 1: because they, i mean, they've lost their rating. Nobody watches

1417
01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:38,400
Speaker 1: that garbage, but they've they've they've also just totally squandered

1418
01:23:38,439 --> 01:23:41,000
Speaker 1: their brand too. If you, by the way, Harlan, you

1419
01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:42,960
Speaker 1: have you have real connections into the White House. I'm

1420
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:45,600
Speaker 1: just wondering, how do you have any whether based on

1421
01:23:45,680 --> 01:23:48,920
Speaker 1: sources or just your own, your own sense of where

1422
01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,760
Speaker 1: this is heading. Do you have any thoughts on one

1423
01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:54,040
Speaker 1: on how the White House feels the day after this

1424
01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:56,080
Speaker 1: mid term and then also where we're going with the

1425
01:23:56,120 --> 01:24:01,920
Speaker 1: Attorney General situation? Yeah, I think it Houses is pleased. Um,

1426
01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:04,760
Speaker 1: you know, they know that the historical trends were working

1427
01:24:04,800 --> 01:24:08,680
Speaker 1: against us. You know, we should have given back some

1428
01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 1: significant grounds in the mid terms. And I think that

1429
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:15,160
Speaker 1: we fixed our expectations. And that's because the President and

1430
01:24:15,280 --> 01:24:18,280
Speaker 1: Vice President Pence and the rest administration vocalized for the

1431
01:24:18,400 --> 01:24:21,600
Speaker 1: last month going to every corner of this country to

1432
01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:24,000
Speaker 1: drive out the president supporters. And if the President the

1433
01:24:24,080 --> 01:24:26,519
Speaker 1: Vice President hadn't done that, last night would have been

1434
01:24:26,560 --> 01:24:29,040
Speaker 1: a very different story. It would have been much worse.

1435
01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:32,439
Speaker 1: So don't listen to any moderate Republican or somebody that

1436
01:24:32,640 --> 01:24:35,840
Speaker 1: is uh, you know, speaking you know, without giving their

1437
01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:37,920
Speaker 1: names to a reporter and saying that the President is

1438
01:24:37,920 --> 01:24:40,400
Speaker 1: the reason that, you know, uh, we lost the House

1439
01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:42,600
Speaker 1: last night. No, the President is the reason that we

1440
01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:45,400
Speaker 1: were able to pick up seats in the Senate and

1441
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:47,040
Speaker 1: held on to as many of the seats as we

1442
01:24:47,120 --> 01:24:50,240
Speaker 1: did in the House, and were forty four Republicans retire, right,

1443
01:24:50,520 --> 01:24:53,080
Speaker 1: and we're gonna lose thirty two seats or something like that.

1444
01:24:53,200 --> 01:24:55,880
Speaker 1: And then're not some that's in a mid term year,

1445
01:24:55,960 --> 01:24:58,799
Speaker 1: that's a that's a resident. I'll take As for them,

1446
01:24:59,000 --> 01:25:01,559
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, what was the second questions, Oh, the Attorney

1447
01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:05,559
Speaker 1: General Sessions is gone? Now what? Oh? Yeah, thank guy.

1448
01:25:06,760 --> 01:25:09,280
Speaker 1: You know, one of the president's promises was that, you know,

1449
01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:11,000
Speaker 1: we would drained the swamp, and and part of that

1450
01:25:11,160 --> 01:25:13,559
Speaker 1: is going after corruption that exists in the little Washington

1451
01:25:13,680 --> 01:25:17,200
Speaker 1: and it really permeates the Democratic Party. And um, you know,

1452
01:25:17,400 --> 01:25:19,640
Speaker 1: I was hopeful that when Jeff Sessions stepped into this

1453
01:25:19,760 --> 01:25:23,599
Speaker 1: role as Attorney general back in twenty seventeen that um,

1454
01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:26,439
Speaker 1: you know, he would he would chase that down. He didn't,

1455
01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:31,000
Speaker 1: and we're from that He's compromised the entire administration by

1456
01:25:31,600 --> 01:25:35,720
Speaker 1: advocating his role um and uh and and appointing that

1457
01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 1: special prosecutors. So, uh, you know, he needed to go.

1458
01:25:38,800 --> 01:25:40,800
Speaker 1: He was ineffectual. He wasn't doing anything that what was

1459
01:25:40,880 --> 01:25:44,040
Speaker 1: he doing, What was he doing at d O J. Nothing?

1460
01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:46,439
Speaker 1: This guy, I mean, I think he's he's got a

1461
01:25:46,479 --> 01:25:51,080
Speaker 1: low I q Uh. He compromised the entire movement. Um,

1462
01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:53,720
Speaker 1: and the president had zero confidence in him. It was

1463
01:25:53,840 --> 01:25:57,000
Speaker 1: time to make a change. So uh, I think he

1464
01:25:57,120 --> 01:25:59,000
Speaker 1: was going on immigration, Harlan, I'll be honest with you,

1465
01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:01,240
Speaker 1: and I I think I think you're being a little

1466
01:26:01,280 --> 01:26:03,560
Speaker 1: harsh on Jeff. But as everybody who listen to the

1467
01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:05,880
Speaker 1: show knows, Jeff has actually called into the show a

1468
01:26:05,960 --> 01:26:08,000
Speaker 1: bunch of times. So I'm I got a little soft

1469
01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:11,040
Speaker 1: spot for the now former a g But nonetheless, man,

1470
01:26:11,120 --> 01:26:14,120
Speaker 1: I I appreciate your perspective on it. Everybody. If you're

1471
01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,479
Speaker 1: not already, you should follow Harlan on Twitter and you'll

1472
01:26:16,479 --> 01:26:19,639
Speaker 1: obviously see him popping up all the time on Fox News. Harlan,

1473
01:26:20,000 --> 01:26:21,880
Speaker 1: my brother down here in the swamp. Stay in the fight.

1474
01:26:21,960 --> 01:26:24,320
Speaker 1: All right. We say shields high on our team, So

1475

1514
01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:35,639
Speaker 1: because she's a black female for the President to tell

1515
01:28:35,760 --> 01:28:38,320
Speaker 1: her that it is not her turn right, because anything

1516
01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:40,880
Speaker 1: that's President Jaws is sexist and racist. Even though he

1517
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,720
Speaker 1: was trying to take a question from our friend and

1518
01:28:44,880 --> 01:28:48,400
Speaker 1: Deli caller reporters Saga and Jetty, who is South Asian

1519
01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:52,320
Speaker 1: so he is brown, but nonetheless trying to let one

1520
01:28:52,400 --> 01:28:56,240
Speaker 1: brown reporter speak and not letting an African American female

1521
01:28:56,280 --> 01:29:01,479
Speaker 1: reporter just interrupt and demand the floor is considered racist. Now,

1522
01:29:01,880 --> 01:29:06,320
Speaker 1: these are the new rules of journalism in the Trump era, apparently,

1523
01:29:06,840 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 1: and it's just so necessary. The President draws of of

1524
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:14,599
Speaker 1: a firm a firm line on this one. I mean,

1525
01:29:14,720 --> 01:29:18,000
Speaker 1: really is clear that he won't allow people to act

1526
01:29:18,040 --> 01:29:20,560
Speaker 1: this way without Look, he's you know, This is what

1527
01:29:20,680 --> 01:29:23,000
Speaker 1: gets me so mad to journalists act up. And we

1528
01:29:23,120 --> 01:29:25,080
Speaker 1: obviously have talked about the Acosta thing, and I bet

1529
01:29:25,360 --> 01:29:27,400
Speaker 1: this is an acostas a performance artist. Now this is

1530
01:29:27,439 --> 01:29:30,880
Speaker 1: what he does. And Acosta just dear Diary. President Trump

1531
01:29:31,000 --> 01:29:32,800
Speaker 1: was mean to be. You know, he's more famous than

1532
01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:35,160
Speaker 1: he's ever been. I'm sure see an contract is fatter

1533
01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 1: now with more cash attached to it than ever before.

1534
01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:41,240
Speaker 1: He's doing just fine. But these journal types cause a

1535
01:29:41,320 --> 01:29:47,680
Speaker 1: scene April Ryan Jim Acosta, that other guy who was

1536
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:52,559
Speaker 1: you know, licking Acosta's boots today remembers from NBC. Uh,

1537
01:29:53,320 --> 01:29:55,479
Speaker 1: they cause a scene, and then they claim that the

1538
01:29:55,560 --> 01:29:59,840
Speaker 1: president is a despot. Then they claimed the president is

1539
01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:03,200
Speaker 1: acting in some totalitarian fashion and he's shutting down the

1540
01:30:03,280 --> 01:30:05,400
Speaker 1: First Amendment and how could he and it's so awful,

1541
01:30:05,439 --> 01:30:08,439
Speaker 1: all this stuff. All he does in response to say,

1542
01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:11,600
Speaker 1: can you not be rude? Can you not act like

1543
01:30:11,880 --> 01:30:14,599
Speaker 1: a spoiled little child? Can you not be a big

1544
01:30:14,760 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 1: baby about this? How about that? And the response to

1545
01:30:19,640 --> 01:30:23,120
Speaker 1: that from the people who are acting like huge babies

1546
01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:28,879
Speaker 1: is no surprise where and they claim that the president

1547
01:30:29,000 --> 01:30:32,360
Speaker 1: is ruining the country, destroying the First Amendment, and look

1548
01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:36,360
Speaker 1: at the media lost all credibility when it comes to

1549
01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:39,840
Speaker 1: objectivity under eight years of Obama? Are they lost all

1550
01:30:39,960 --> 01:30:43,040
Speaker 1: their Anybody who starts all the media's are there? Nonpartisan?

1551
01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:46,880
Speaker 1: Are neutral? They're either just delusional or stupid. Right, The

1552
01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:50,880
Speaker 1: mainstream media is over. The media in general in the

1553
01:30:50,960 --> 01:30:56,160
Speaker 1: news business is over lib them registers independence. By the way,

1554
01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,960
Speaker 1: I love that so funny. Oh, you're really fooling everybody

1555
01:31:00,200 --> 01:31:03,439
Speaker 1: with your independent that's the Don Lemon maneuver. Will excuse me,

1556
01:31:03,560 --> 01:31:07,160
Speaker 1: I'm an independent? Okay, you're an independent? No, now, I

1557
01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:09,640
Speaker 1: guess you're not a part as a hack. What a

1558
01:31:09,840 --> 01:31:15,639
Speaker 1: joke these clowns are. But they lost all of their

1559
01:31:15,880 --> 01:31:19,960
Speaker 1: claims to independence during the Obama years, no question about it,

1560
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:23,320
Speaker 1: all right, They just they just got rid of all that.

1561
01:31:24,680 --> 01:31:28,559
Speaker 1: Now what we see is not only were they willing

1562
01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:32,559
Speaker 1: to just lie down take whatever Obama gave them, give

1563
01:31:32,640 --> 01:31:36,120
Speaker 1: Obama the verbal equivalent of a constant BackRub in the

1564
01:31:36,200 --> 01:31:38,840
Speaker 1: West wing. I mean, it was just an embarrassment. Not

1565
01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:40,559
Speaker 1: only were they willing to do that, but then under

1566
01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:44,400
Speaker 1: the Obama I mean, onto the Trump administration. Now what

1567
01:31:44,560 --> 01:31:48,679
Speaker 1: you see is there they are ferociously and childishly hostile

1568
01:31:48,720 --> 01:31:53,280
Speaker 1: to this president. I mean, they just throw tantrum after tantrum,

1569
01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:58,599
Speaker 1: and Jim Acosta is just the America's baby in chief

1570
01:31:58,760 --> 01:32:01,880
Speaker 1: right now, just doing this nonsense. He doesn't even ask

1571
01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:05,840
Speaker 1: smart questions. I mean, if Jim Acosta would actually ask

1572
01:32:05,920 --> 01:32:08,000
Speaker 1: an intelligent question once in a while, I'd give him

1573
01:32:08,080 --> 01:32:11,280
Speaker 1: a little bit more credit. And you know, I'd say,

1574
01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:13,800
Speaker 1: for every real question you get from a Costa, there

1575
01:32:13,840 --> 01:32:18,640
Speaker 1: are three speeches where a Costa is effectively grabbing the

1576
01:32:18,720 --> 01:32:21,760
Speaker 1: mic for himself to try to get all of the

1577
01:32:21,960 --> 01:32:27,000
Speaker 1: Libs who watch CNN excited. And it's just it's just terrible.

1578
01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:29,640
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just I'm so sick of it, and

1579
01:32:29,840 --> 01:32:33,720
Speaker 1: thank Heavens that Trump just doesn't doesn't sit there and

1580
01:32:33,760 --> 01:32:35,920
Speaker 1: take it. If we had Romney as our president right now,

1581
01:32:36,000 --> 01:32:37,320
Speaker 1: which I know, I don't even I know he won

1582
01:32:37,400 --> 01:32:40,640
Speaker 1: the Senate, whatever we had Romney's are president right now,

1583
01:32:40,720 --> 01:32:42,720
Speaker 1: you just sit up there like, okay, everybody, can we

1584
01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:45,479
Speaker 1: be a little nicer? Please? Can we uh, let's come down.

1585
01:32:45,520 --> 01:32:49,320
Speaker 1: They would just steam roll him. The libs need to

1586
01:32:49,400 --> 01:32:52,080
Speaker 1: be taught a lesson, and none more so than the

1587
01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:55,040
Speaker 1: libs in the press, and none more so than CNN.

1588
01:32:57,000 --> 01:32:59,679
Speaker 1: I love it. When the President slaps them around verbally,

1589
01:33:00,920 --> 01:33:03,880
Speaker 1: unlike a Costa who gets a little rough physically with

1590
01:33:04,160 --> 01:33:06,880
Speaker 1: young women trying to take the mic from him. There

1591
01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 1: was a dream tonight for Democrats, which was that early

1592
01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:12,800
Speaker 1: on they'd be able to say, Okay, we you know,

1593
01:33:12,960 --> 01:33:15,839
Speaker 1: we won a couple in Virginia, we want in Kentucky,

1594
01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:18,640
Speaker 1: and this is going to show that this wave is

1595
01:33:18,720 --> 01:33:22,320
Speaker 1: starting and you can't stop it. Now. There's no tsunami.

1596
01:33:22,560 --> 01:33:25,200
Speaker 1: There's there's no tsunami coming. I mean, winning the House

1597
01:33:25,280 --> 01:33:28,040
Speaker 1: by one vote, by one member is enough is enough

1598
01:33:28,120 --> 01:33:30,080
Speaker 1: for them. But there's a lot of disappointment that I'm

1599
01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:34,640
Speaker 1: hearing from people. The excitement, I think is the the

1600
01:33:34,720 --> 01:33:38,960
Speaker 1: cliche balloon is popping. This is heartbreaking. Though it's heartbreaking.

1601
01:33:39,840 --> 01:33:43,200
Speaker 1: The hope has been that the antibodies would kick in,

1602
01:33:44,040 --> 01:33:48,000
Speaker 1: that this sort of infestation of hatred and division would

1603
01:33:48,160 --> 01:33:50,479
Speaker 1: would would dry response from the American people willing in

1604
01:33:50,560 --> 01:33:53,240
Speaker 1: both parties to say no and no, no more. Uh.

1605
01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:55,640
Speaker 1: That does not seem to be happening tonight. It's not

1606
01:33:55,760 --> 01:33:57,880
Speaker 1: a blue wave, but it's still a blue war. We've

1607
01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:01,120
Speaker 1: got to continue the fight forward. We do have to

1608
01:34:01,160 --> 01:34:05,800
Speaker 1: continue to fight forward, but on the other side, and

1609
01:34:05,920 --> 01:34:09,439
Speaker 1: I think that the antibodies have kicked in. It's just

1610
01:34:09,640 --> 01:34:16,240
Speaker 1: the infection is leftism, state is um collectivism. The infection

1611
01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:19,680
Speaker 1: is what we refer to as liberalism today, which is

1612
01:34:19,880 --> 01:34:25,880
Speaker 1: really a form of sanitized insanity. That is what you

1613
01:34:26,000 --> 01:34:28,360
Speaker 1: have now on the left. These are people that you

1614
01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:33,000
Speaker 1: cannot have a normal, responsible conversation with on a whole

1615
01:34:33,080 --> 01:34:35,920
Speaker 1: host of issues. These are people who will say things

1616
01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:39,400
Speaker 1: that in any other time in human history, anyone with

1617
01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:46,800
Speaker 1: a normal functioning brain would say that is crazy. But

1618
01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:49,839
Speaker 1: now here we are now there are not two genders,

1619
01:34:49,880 --> 01:34:51,880
Speaker 1: there are thirty seven. Now we're all going to die

1620
01:34:52,040 --> 01:34:55,800
Speaker 1: unless we restrict c O two in the atmosphere by

1621
01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,880
Speaker 1: riding bicycles and eating less red meat. Now, we need

1622
01:35:00,160 --> 01:35:03,000
Speaker 1: to find ways to make the government even larger in

1623
01:35:03,080 --> 01:35:05,200
Speaker 1: our lives and more in control of our health care

1624
01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:08,680
Speaker 1: than ever before, because the government is so good at

1625
01:35:08,800 --> 01:35:14,280
Speaker 1: efficiency and the delivery of goods and services. This is insanity.

1626
01:35:15,680 --> 01:35:20,720
Speaker 1: And what you were shown last night without any hesitation,

1627
01:35:20,800 --> 01:35:25,479
Speaker 1: but left without any question, is that they have learned nothing.

1628
01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:30,880
Speaker 1: Since I really want to hammer home that point tonight.

1629
01:35:31,840 --> 01:35:36,160
Speaker 1: Nothing for them has changed. They do not stop and think, well,

1630
01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:40,519
Speaker 1: hold on a second, not only did Trump win that election,

1631
01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 1: whether they want to pretend that Russia was involved that

1632
01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:46,080
Speaker 1: that doesn't even matter. I mean not only to do

1633
01:35:46,200 --> 01:35:48,200
Speaker 1: win that, but now if Trump has been president for

1634
01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:53,800
Speaker 1: almost two years and the American people that voted for him,

1635
01:35:53,840 --> 01:35:56,920
Speaker 1: then don't just think that was the right decision at

1636
01:35:57,000 --> 01:35:59,800
Speaker 1: that time, but want him to continue to be in

1637
01:36:00,040 --> 01:36:02,120
Speaker 1: charge and his party to be in charge because they

1638
01:36:02,200 --> 01:36:06,680
Speaker 1: think that they're doing a good job at governance. So

1639
01:36:06,880 --> 01:36:09,160
Speaker 1: while Van Jones and others at CNN can talk about

1640
01:36:09,160 --> 01:36:12,120
Speaker 1: the infestation of racism all the time without well, what

1641
01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:14,840
Speaker 1: specifics are we ever given about that? Because we want

1642
01:36:14,880 --> 01:36:17,120
Speaker 1: to secure border, that makes you racist. If wanting the

1643
01:36:17,200 --> 01:36:20,000
Speaker 1: border to be secure makes you a racist, then I

1644
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:24,960
Speaker 1: suppose half the country is racist. If wanting the rule

1645
01:36:25,040 --> 01:36:28,200
Speaker 1: of law to be enforced irrespective of a person's skin

1646
01:36:28,360 --> 01:36:31,479
Speaker 1: color or national origin makes you a racist, then I

1647
01:36:31,560 --> 01:36:34,880
Speaker 1: guess half the country a racist. So if that is

1648
01:36:34,960 --> 01:36:38,200
Speaker 1: the case, then maybe they should just give up this

1649
01:36:38,360 --> 01:36:40,360
Speaker 1: talking point about how the country is so racist all

1650
01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:42,719
Speaker 1: the time, because we're not going to change on those points.

1651
01:36:43,600 --> 01:36:45,800
Speaker 1: I'm not going to change on rule of law. I'm

1652
01:36:45,840 --> 01:36:48,840
Speaker 1: not going to give up because of the moral blackmail

1653
01:36:48,920 --> 01:36:53,920
Speaker 1: they engage in on issues of immigration, acting like because

1654
01:36:54,080 --> 01:36:57,160
Speaker 1: we want sovereignty and rule of law were the equivalent

1655
01:36:57,240 --> 01:36:59,479
Speaker 1: of Plan members or something. All right, this is just

1656
01:37:00,080 --> 01:37:03,320
Speaker 1: unacceptable rhetoric from the left. But just remember I'm telling

1657
01:37:03,360 --> 01:37:06,320
Speaker 1: you this. They have learned nothing. They will change nothing,

1658
01:37:06,720 --> 01:37:11,400
Speaker 1: and now all we can do is win like soft

1659
01:37:11,520 --> 01:37:15,080
Speaker 1: butter on warm toast. Time to spread some freedom coast

1660
01:37:15,160 --> 01:37:28,280
Speaker 1: to coast. It's time for Roll call. Alright, team, it

1661
01:37:28,560 --> 01:37:32,400
Speaker 1: has been quite at twenty four hours or so, so

1662
01:37:32,600 --> 01:37:35,280
Speaker 1: we've got a lot, a lot to discuss here on

1663
01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:39,000
Speaker 1: Roll Call, and I appreciate hearing from from all of

1664
01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:43,080
Speaker 1: you as always. Man, it it was. It was wild

1665
01:37:43,520 --> 01:37:46,639
Speaker 1: last night. We did live coverage at at Hill TV

1666
01:37:47,280 --> 01:37:52,960
Speaker 1: and we were up until thirty and then I went

1667
01:37:53,080 --> 01:37:56,879
Speaker 1: to sleep at probably one and got back up at five,

1668
01:37:57,800 --> 01:38:04,040
Speaker 1: and yeah, it was. It was a tiring day. I

1669
01:38:04,200 --> 01:38:07,360
Speaker 1: managed to fall asleep about noon the next you know,

1670
01:38:07,479 --> 01:38:11,880
Speaker 1: today and just let all of the maga soak in,

1671
01:38:12,120 --> 01:38:15,519
Speaker 1: let all of the events that we've been discussing here

1672
01:38:15,560 --> 01:38:18,960
Speaker 1: on the show simmer a little bit in my mind.

1673
01:38:19,040 --> 01:38:21,439
Speaker 1: So it was. It's it's been quite a thing. I

1674
01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:25,920
Speaker 1: just as as I've said, prepare for battle. That's what

1675
01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:27,920
Speaker 1: we're in for for the next two years. It's just

1676
01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:31,439
Speaker 1: this is just gonna be an all out war in

1677
01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:35,679
Speaker 1: politics for control in But let's see what you think

1678
01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:38,479
Speaker 1: about all the things, Michael. By the way, this comes

1679
01:38:38,520 --> 01:38:40,680
Speaker 1: to us via Facebook dot com slash buck Sex, and

1680
01:38:40,800 --> 01:38:44,799
Speaker 1: Michael writes, so long to your buddy Jeff Sessions. I know, Michael,

1681
01:38:44,880 --> 01:38:47,160
Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm very much of of two minds

1682
01:38:47,200 --> 01:38:50,559
Speaker 1: about this. I mean, the president needs to have somebody

1683
01:38:50,880 --> 01:38:53,600
Speaker 1: that you know, he can trust. The president needs to

1684
01:38:53,680 --> 01:38:58,280
Speaker 1: have somebody on his side that he you know, isn't

1685
01:38:58,400 --> 01:39:04,639
Speaker 1: isn't worried about falling into the the lib mentality on things.

1686
01:39:04,720 --> 01:39:07,479
Speaker 1: I mean, I I so, I I understand that. And

1687
01:39:07,760 --> 01:39:09,600
Speaker 1: the people say, oh, the Attorney general is supposed to

1688
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:11,560
Speaker 1: be nonpartist, the Attorney John is supposed to here to

1689
01:39:11,600 --> 01:39:13,599
Speaker 1: the law everyone, But let's let's put on our big

1690
01:39:13,640 --> 01:39:16,000
Speaker 1: boy pants. I understand that, just like with the Supreme Court,

1691
01:39:16,840 --> 01:39:21,960
Speaker 1: there are ideological frameworks that people apply to the law

1692
01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:25,679
Speaker 1: and that matters, and we should not the other side

1693
01:39:25,760 --> 01:39:28,160
Speaker 1: is certainly aware of it. We should not pretend that

1694
01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:31,880
Speaker 1: we are not aware of it. Um. But yeah, you know,

1695
01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:34,599
Speaker 1: so I understand why he wanted somebody's a little more

1696
01:39:35,640 --> 01:39:38,519
Speaker 1: more of a fighter under the circumstances. I think Jeff

1697
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:40,840
Speaker 1: Session is a very very honorable guy. I think he

1698
01:39:40,920 --> 01:39:44,439
Speaker 1: did everything that he could under the circumstances. Uh too,

1699
01:39:45,840 --> 01:39:48,799
Speaker 1: you know, be good the administration in terms of policy,

1700
01:39:49,439 --> 01:39:54,040
Speaker 1: but he clearly was not ready for this moment of

1701
01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:56,840
Speaker 1: all out street rowling with the Damns. All right. Next

1702
01:39:56,960 --> 01:39:59,600
Speaker 1: up here, Tom writes buck love the show. I'm a

1703
01:39:59,760 --> 01:40:01,760
Speaker 1: truck driver and listen on a few days a few

1704
01:40:01,840 --> 01:40:05,040
Speaker 1: days delay on podcast. I'm from New Jersey but recently

1705
01:40:05,080 --> 01:40:09,040
Speaker 1: moved to Kentucky to escape the liberal nonsense. I can't

1706
01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:12,840
Speaker 1: believe my old home voted in Menendez. It's unreal, all

1707
01:40:12,920 --> 01:40:16,120
Speaker 1: the brainwashed people in this country. Thanks for everything you do,

1708
01:40:16,240 --> 01:40:19,240
Speaker 1: Shields Tie well, thank you Tom for listening. Very much appreciated.

1709
01:40:19,320 --> 01:40:22,280
Speaker 1: And ask for New Jersey with Menendez. You know, they

1710
01:40:23,720 --> 01:40:25,759
Speaker 1: how do I how do I put it? They decided

1711
01:40:25,840 --> 01:40:29,519
Speaker 1: in the New Jersey they wanted, you know, guys got

1712
01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:30,600
Speaker 1: a little bit of dirt on them, you know, a

1713
01:40:30,600 --> 01:40:34,519
Speaker 1: little Menendez. They they understand they feel like a you know,

1714
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:37,360
Speaker 1: he's a guy who uh he's a guy's guy because

1715
01:40:37,760 --> 01:40:40,240
Speaker 1: you know he's got problems. Maybe you can put a

1716
01:40:40,280 --> 01:40:41,760
Speaker 1: little leverage, put a little lean on him, you know

1717
01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:45,720
Speaker 1: what I mean. That's uh, that's the it's the New

1718
01:40:45,840 --> 01:40:47,479
Speaker 1: Jersey way. I mean there's a part of Look, I

1719
01:40:47,560 --> 01:40:50,120
Speaker 1: have so many friends and everything from New Jersey. I'm

1720
01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:52,080
Speaker 1: just as a New Yorker. I'm allowed to have fun

1721
01:40:52,120 --> 01:40:54,800
Speaker 1: in New Jersey. It's like when people in Texas say

1722
01:40:54,920 --> 01:40:58,000
Speaker 1: that we're deporting the wrong people. We need to be

1723
01:40:58,120 --> 01:41:00,840
Speaker 1: deporting Oklahoman's. I mean, that's not all me, that's what

1724
01:41:00,960 --> 01:41:05,760
Speaker 1: they say. But you know that's a Texas, Oklahoma thing.

1725
01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:08,679
Speaker 1: And with New York and New Jersey there's a special,

1726
01:41:09,120 --> 01:41:11,680
Speaker 1: a special relationship where we kid, you know, we make

1727
01:41:11,720 --> 01:41:14,280
Speaker 1: little jokes here and there, but I I I agree

1728
01:41:14,320 --> 01:41:16,800
Speaker 1: and me onto a serious point here, the fact that

1729
01:41:16,920 --> 01:41:20,240
Speaker 1: New Jersey who who votes for Menendez? I mean, he

1730
01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:24,800
Speaker 1: was so close to being indicted for felony corruption and

1731
01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:27,280
Speaker 1: that's the best, that's the best New Jersey can do.

1732
01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:30,679
Speaker 1: Never mind some of the other allegations against him, which

1733
01:41:30,680 --> 01:41:32,840
Speaker 1: if you go back to about twelve you'll see what

1734
01:41:32,960 --> 01:41:35,320
Speaker 1: they were. They were published, they they never approven, but

1735
01:41:36,800 --> 01:41:41,160
Speaker 1: sketchy stuff out there about him sketchy stuff. And I'm

1736
01:41:41,160 --> 01:41:42,960
Speaker 1: not you know, I'm not saying that he should go

1737
01:41:43,040 --> 01:41:44,960
Speaker 1: to prison for things that are improven. I'm just saying

1738
01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:47,160
Speaker 1: that's who you want to elect to be your senator.

1739
01:41:47,360 --> 01:41:49,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. That seems to me to be uh,

1740
01:41:50,200 --> 01:41:52,200
Speaker 1: it seems to be to be a problem. But people

1741
01:41:52,360 --> 01:41:54,360
Speaker 1: people get what they get. You know, you get what

1742
01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:56,200
Speaker 1: you get what you get, and you get what you want.

1743
01:41:56,720 --> 01:41:58,120
Speaker 1: That doesn't really make any sense, but you know what

1744
01:41:58,200 --> 01:42:04,080
Speaker 1: I mean, t J writes book. Possible Democrat presidential contender

1745
01:42:04,360 --> 01:42:09,360
Speaker 1: Joe Mansion thoughts, um, well, I he's a Democrat, t J.

1746
01:42:09,600 --> 01:42:13,320
Speaker 1: So I don't really like that idea. I do think though,

1747
01:42:13,400 --> 01:42:14,840
Speaker 1: this is an opening for me to say that what

1748
01:42:15,040 --> 01:42:19,800
Speaker 1: I would like to have happened is, um, I would

1749
01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:24,960
Speaker 1: like for us to convince Mansion to switch over. Mansion

1750
01:42:25,240 --> 01:42:29,360
Speaker 1: should switch parties. You know, he is no longer really

1751
01:42:29,400 --> 01:42:32,599
Speaker 1: a Democrat. And I think the Kavanaugh vote, as much

1752
01:42:32,640 --> 01:42:36,200
Speaker 1: as it saved his Senate seat for him, I think

1753
01:42:36,200 --> 01:42:38,600
Speaker 1: that will be held against him by the party for

1754
01:42:38,800 --> 01:42:42,160
Speaker 1: a very very long time. So it's this is not

1755
01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:45,200
Speaker 1: this is not something that they will forget either. I mean,

1756
01:42:45,280 --> 01:42:48,559
Speaker 1: I think it's it's tough to tell whether for Mansion

1757
01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:50,320
Speaker 1: it was a point of honor or a point of

1758
01:42:51,160 --> 01:42:54,519
Speaker 1: political self preservation. I think you make a case for

1759
01:42:54,600 --> 01:42:57,280
Speaker 1: Mansion that it was either. But he made the right move,

1760
01:42:57,400 --> 01:42:59,560
Speaker 1: you know, just like with Jeff Flake. Jeff Flake is

1761
01:43:00,000 --> 01:43:03,440
Speaker 1: as a whimp and Jeff Lake should not be representing

1762
01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:06,240
Speaker 1: Republicans anywhere. But he did the right thing at the

1763
01:43:06,439 --> 01:43:09,600
Speaker 1: end of the day. On Kavanaugh. It took him a

1764
01:43:09,600 --> 01:43:11,320
Speaker 1: while to get there, and he took a risk he

1765
01:43:11,360 --> 01:43:14,040
Speaker 1: didn't have to, I think in the one week extension.

1766
01:43:14,880 --> 01:43:16,680
Speaker 1: But there is an argument to be made that that

1767
01:43:16,760 --> 01:43:18,599
Speaker 1: week really did take a lot of the heat out

1768
01:43:18,640 --> 01:43:20,880
Speaker 1: of the argument from the other side that you know,

1769
01:43:20,960 --> 01:43:22,840
Speaker 1: it was a risk, and I think that, you know,

1770
01:43:23,160 --> 01:43:24,880
Speaker 1: I don't think it was a necessary risk, but you

1771
01:43:24,960 --> 01:43:27,400
Speaker 1: can't argue that the risk worked out in the long run.

1772
01:43:27,479 --> 01:43:30,400
Speaker 1: And obviously Kavanaugh. You know, All's well, that ends well

1773
01:43:30,439 --> 01:43:33,000
Speaker 1: as the short version of what I'm trying to say.

1774
01:43:34,040 --> 01:43:38,280
Speaker 1: Uh Keith writes, Hey, Buck, just curious, were the Republican

1775
01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:41,599
Speaker 1: congressmen that retired a bunch of never trumpers. I wonder

1776
01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:43,320
Speaker 1: how many of the seats we kept and if they

1777
01:43:43,400 --> 01:43:45,080
Speaker 1: were a lot of never trumpers and if we did

1778
01:43:45,200 --> 01:43:47,519
Speaker 1: lose a lot of those seats. Could losing the House

1779
01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:50,560
Speaker 1: be an intentional way of hurting the Trump agenda on

1780
01:43:50,960 --> 01:43:55,400
Speaker 1: their part? Uh? You know, Keith, I do think that

1781
01:43:55,439 --> 01:43:57,519
Speaker 1: there were people that didn't want to run again because

1782
01:43:58,240 --> 01:44:00,960
Speaker 1: they thought that they would they would lose, and they

1783
01:44:01,000 --> 01:44:02,400
Speaker 1: and they don't really want to be a part of

1784
01:44:02,439 --> 01:44:05,640
Speaker 1: Trump's Republican Party anymore. There also was this point that

1785
01:44:05,680 --> 01:44:07,720
Speaker 1: Trump brought up today in the press conference about how

1786
01:44:07,760 --> 01:44:09,920
Speaker 1: if you've been a committee chairman, you know, there's you

1787
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:12,160
Speaker 1: can't continue to be a chairman after a period of time.

1788
01:44:12,280 --> 01:44:15,519
Speaker 1: So there's a number of factors. But there were a huge,

1789
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:21,080
Speaker 1: relatively speaking, huge number of Republican retirements and that's a

1790
01:44:21,200 --> 01:44:25,800
Speaker 1: that's an issue. That's an issue for sure. Joe writes,

1791
01:44:25,880 --> 01:44:29,280
Speaker 1: no faith in Florida, Buck, no worries. We were sweating too,

1792
01:44:29,400 --> 01:44:33,479
Speaker 1: but we came through shields high oss, Joe, Joe. I

1793
01:44:33,640 --> 01:44:36,400
Speaker 1: gotta give it credit to my Republican brothers and sisters

1794
01:44:36,479 --> 01:44:40,799
Speaker 1: down in Florida. You guys turned out. You guys brave

1795
01:44:40,920 --> 01:44:43,599
Speaker 1: the rain storms that were up in the Tallahassee area,

1796
01:44:43,640 --> 01:44:46,040
Speaker 1: and I guess some other parts of the state too. Uh,

1797
01:44:46,400 --> 01:44:48,519
Speaker 1: you know, I I think that you guys came through

1798
01:44:48,760 --> 01:44:52,880
Speaker 1: in a really important way because the big story they

1799
01:44:53,040 --> 01:44:56,880
Speaker 1: wanted last night were winds in the Senate and the

1800
01:44:57,080 --> 01:45:01,920
Speaker 1: Governor's House in Florida. For the Democrats, Gillham as the

1801
01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:06,040
Speaker 1: next generation of national level Democrat left wing political figure,

1802
01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:09,200
Speaker 1: those were the Those were the big stories they want. Yeah,

1803
01:45:09,200 --> 01:45:11,800
Speaker 1: they wanted Beto, but Beto was a Beto was a

1804
01:45:11,920 --> 01:45:14,840
Speaker 1: pipe dream. Okay, he didn't lose by ten, I know,

1805
01:45:14,960 --> 01:45:18,320
Speaker 1: I said that, but he lost by four I think. Uh.

1806
01:45:18,360 --> 01:45:22,240
Speaker 1: And they spent seventy million dollars on it, So you know,

1807
01:45:22,640 --> 01:45:24,559
Speaker 1: at what point do you say, Okay, well, he would

1808
01:45:24,600 --> 01:45:27,599
Speaker 1: have lost by ten if they hadn't thrown more money

1809
01:45:27,640 --> 01:45:30,599
Speaker 1: into this Senate race than any other Senate race in history,

1810
01:45:31,000 --> 01:45:37,400
Speaker 1: in history to try and go right into GOP stronghold

1811
01:45:37,680 --> 01:45:39,760
Speaker 1: of Texas and take a seat there. I mean, it

1812
01:45:39,880 --> 01:45:43,600
Speaker 1: was bold, but it was foolish, brave but dumb. I

1813
01:45:43,640 --> 01:45:47,120
Speaker 1: think it's how you could describe it. Jenna right sad night.

1814
01:45:47,200 --> 01:45:50,560
Speaker 1: For Wisconsin, Scott Walker is one politician who says what

1815
01:45:50,640 --> 01:45:52,880
Speaker 1: he's going to do and then does it. I'm shocked

1816
01:45:52,920 --> 01:45:55,680
Speaker 1: at Wisconsin went so Democrat, but I live far from

1817
01:45:55,720 --> 01:45:58,839
Speaker 1: Madison listening to you when some other conservatives bring sanity.

1818
01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:01,960
Speaker 1: My hope remains in odd not in people. Jenna, Jenna,

1819
01:46:02,080 --> 01:46:04,080
Speaker 1: thank you so much for writing and writing and and

1820
01:46:04,360 --> 01:46:07,200
Speaker 1: uh yeah, I mean, you know, I think with Wisconsin

1821
01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:13,040
Speaker 1: there was just eventually the desire for change overcomes better

1822
01:46:13,160 --> 01:46:18,080
Speaker 1: judgment of the general population in a place people think, well,

1823
01:46:18,160 --> 01:46:20,000
Speaker 1: you know, we we how many times have we had

1824
01:46:20,040 --> 01:46:22,160
Speaker 1: to pull the lever for Walker? I know people would

1825
01:46:22,200 --> 01:46:23,599
Speaker 1: argue the other side of this is, well, when you're

1826
01:46:23,680 --> 01:46:25,400
Speaker 1: used to pulling the lever for somebody, you keep doing it.

1827
01:46:25,920 --> 01:46:29,759
Speaker 1: It even reminds me of that pretty mediocre Eddie Murphy

1828
01:46:29,840 --> 01:46:34,000
Speaker 1: movie back in the day they distinguished gentleman Jeff Johnson

1829
01:46:34,240 --> 01:46:36,120
Speaker 1: a name you know, where he just runs on the

1830
01:46:36,200 --> 01:46:38,320
Speaker 1: name of a deceased congressman and he wins because that's

1831
01:46:38,320 --> 01:46:41,000
Speaker 1: who everyone's used to voting for. And it's it's really

1832
01:46:41,040 --> 01:46:42,759
Speaker 1: the whole movie is kind of a one trick pony

1833
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:44,880
Speaker 1: and that Okay, that's kind of a funny concept, but

1834
01:46:44,920 --> 01:46:46,719
Speaker 1: the rest of the movie is pretty boring, kind of sucks.

1835
01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:50,200
Speaker 1: But you know, I do think that with Walker, people

1836
01:46:50,320 --> 01:46:54,280
Speaker 1: just they just got worn down by the progressives who

1837
01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:57,560
Speaker 1: really would never let it go that he took on

1838
01:46:57,760 --> 01:46:59,920
Speaker 1: the public sector unions in that state. And I mean

1839
01:47:00,080 --> 01:47:02,840
Speaker 1: that was a crazy story. Back in twelve what was

1840
01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:06,200
Speaker 1: going on there that was really Uh you have people

1841
01:47:06,560 --> 01:47:11,400
Speaker 1: taken over the state capitol there in Wisconsin with these

1842
01:47:11,800 --> 01:47:14,519
Speaker 1: really these kind of riot like situations. I mean, these

1843
01:47:14,520 --> 01:47:17,719
Speaker 1: sit ins and everything. It was just nuts all because

1844
01:47:18,000 --> 01:47:20,560
Speaker 1: you know, we figured, well, maybe the taxpayers shouldn't be

1845
01:47:20,600 --> 01:47:25,799
Speaker 1: completely punished with gold plated benefit programs for public sector unions.

1846
01:47:26,960 --> 01:47:31,080
Speaker 1: Maybe that's something that they should address. Uh, next we

1847
01:47:31,320 --> 01:47:35,920
Speaker 1: have up. Alright, Hey, Buck, I call your brief message

1848
01:47:35,920 --> 01:47:38,080
Speaker 1: about how Americans really don't want government telling them who

1849
01:47:38,280 --> 01:47:41,559
Speaker 1: they can be. That is so true. They don't hurt

1850
01:47:41,560 --> 01:47:43,559
Speaker 1: anybody by breaking laws. They need to back the hell

1851
01:47:43,600 --> 01:47:48,040
Speaker 1: away and let freedom ring warts and all. I agree up,

1852
01:47:48,400 --> 01:47:51,040
Speaker 1: and your name is cool. Thank you for writing in.

1853
01:47:52,479 --> 01:47:56,519
Speaker 1: Uh yohann Hello Buck me again. Let's try this. I

1854
01:47:56,600 --> 01:47:59,599
Speaker 1: have a bad habit of hitting the enter key listening

1855
01:47:59,600 --> 01:48:01,240
Speaker 1: to the show tonight, and at the end you were

1856
01:48:01,240 --> 01:48:03,639
Speaker 1: reading listeners messages. You said that you wanted to read

1857
01:48:03,640 --> 01:48:05,719
Speaker 1: a critical one, and I thought that had to be mine.

1858
01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:08,800
Speaker 1: I hope you're changed your mind about thinking I was

1859
01:48:08,840 --> 01:48:11,400
Speaker 1: being critical. I just have a bit different take on

1860
01:48:11,479 --> 01:48:15,960
Speaker 1: one thing, you know, man buxter Um, Well no I don't.

1861
01:48:16,400 --> 01:48:20,960
Speaker 1: I wasn't actually thinking of yours. Okay, Well here we go, Johan.

1862
01:48:21,040 --> 01:48:23,519
Speaker 1: Here here's what you wrote. Buck. This is an earlier

1863
01:48:23,560 --> 01:48:26,200
Speaker 1: message that I just missed. Johan, by the way, just

1864
01:48:26,280 --> 01:48:30,080
Speaker 1: so you know, uh, I get We're getting hundreds and

1865
01:48:30,160 --> 01:48:32,439
Speaker 1: hundreds of messages in all the time, and so it's

1866
01:48:32,479 --> 01:48:34,640
Speaker 1: just I can't get to all of them. And some

1867
01:48:34,760 --> 01:48:36,560
Speaker 1: people have figured out the times that I tend to

1868
01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:39,160
Speaker 1: look at these and pick out messages to read on air.

1869
01:48:39,560 --> 01:48:41,519
Speaker 1: They've gamed the system a little bit, so their names

1870
01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:43,800
Speaker 1: appear a little more frequently in the roll call. But hey,

1871
01:48:44,160 --> 01:48:47,519
Speaker 1: I appreciate the enthusiasm, you know. I gotta yeah, I

1872
01:48:47,600 --> 01:48:50,400
Speaker 1: gotta people are gonna you know, they're gonna play the game. Well,

1873
01:48:50,400 --> 01:48:53,160
Speaker 1: you gotta respect the respect the player. But Johan, the

1874
01:48:53,200 --> 01:48:55,599
Speaker 1: critical message was this, Buck, you're the best. I can't

1875
01:48:55,640 --> 01:48:57,200
Speaker 1: take the other talk show host for more than a

1876
01:48:57,240 --> 01:49:00,120
Speaker 1: few minutes. I almost or I always agree with you,

1877
01:49:00,200 --> 01:49:01,439
Speaker 1: but it's not. You said a few things I could

1878
01:49:01,479 --> 01:49:06,439
Speaker 1: not get behind. First, calling the military the warrior class.

1879
01:49:06,600 --> 01:49:08,720
Speaker 1: I think that is dangerous thinking that they are a

1880
01:49:08,760 --> 01:49:11,640
Speaker 1: separate class. I prefer to think they are Americans that

1881
01:49:11,760 --> 01:49:15,880
Speaker 1: server are serving. I retired after more than thirty years active, reserved, Navy,

1882
01:49:15,920 --> 01:49:18,840
Speaker 1: and Army. Um. I hated the military, but by no

1883
01:49:18,920 --> 01:49:21,160
Speaker 1: stretch of my lefty what I did like about being

1884
01:49:21,240 --> 01:49:22,680
Speaker 1: in with some of the people I lived and work with,

1885
01:49:22,760 --> 01:49:25,000
Speaker 1: the cool things I did places I went. I didn't

1886
01:49:25,040 --> 01:49:27,160
Speaker 1: like the mickey mouse stuff that seemed more important to

1887
01:49:27,200 --> 01:49:29,720
Speaker 1: some folks, like tucking in your shirt during PT. I

1888
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:31,800
Speaker 1: also didn't like taking orders, which I think is basically

1889
01:49:31,800 --> 01:49:37,000
Speaker 1: an American kind of thing. Um. Uh, none that anyway, Buck,

1890
01:49:37,080 --> 01:49:40,720
Speaker 1: you are still the best from Johannio, Y know. And

1891
01:49:40,800 --> 01:49:43,280
Speaker 1: I mean sure, that's by the way, it's completely wouldn't

1892
01:49:43,280 --> 01:49:45,040
Speaker 1: even say a criticisms, just a different opinion, but it's

1893
01:49:45,080 --> 01:49:48,200
Speaker 1: completely valid. Uh. And when I refer to the Warrior class,

1894
01:49:48,200 --> 01:49:51,000
Speaker 1: I mean I don't mean to separate them out as

1895
01:49:51,080 --> 01:49:53,200
Speaker 1: in their distinct or different from Americans. That just mean

1896
01:49:53,240 --> 01:49:55,720
Speaker 1: that they have served in a way that is just different. Uh,

1897
01:49:56,160 --> 01:49:59,559
Speaker 1: just different, gosh, Buck, distinct or different, just different, It's

1898
01:49:59,600 --> 01:50:03,400
Speaker 1: just different. Another bucket is m I'm really letting them

1899
01:50:03,400 --> 01:50:06,479
Speaker 1: fly these days, So that's gonna be it. For the

1900
01:50:06,640 --> 01:50:10,479
