1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in everybody, Monday edition of The 3 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:11,640 Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. We are racked and 4 00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,640 Speaker 1: stacked so much to dive into just a couple of 5 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,120 Speaker 1: weeks away from election day? Almost now what two weeks 6 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 1: to the day. It's crazy, Clays crazy? How that so? 7 00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: It is that two weeks of to day crazy at 8 00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 1: the time is flying by. I am down here in 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,919 Speaker 1: Fort Peace, Fort Pierce, pardon me, Florida. I am going 10 00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: to be at the Rohm Descantist Charlie christ debate tonight, 11 00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 1: which is obviously a big contest here for the governor 12 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,479 Speaker 1: of Florida. We'll talk a bit about some of that. 13 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: Clay has got all the latest on the polling. We 14 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: all need to keep calm and carry on and keep 15 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 1: moving because things are looking good for the Red things 16 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: are looking good for the Republicans, but it is a 17 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: long way from over. Friends, Until all the votes are counted, 18 00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,880 Speaker 1: we do not celebrate, we do not get too excited. 19 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: We will look at that data. We'll look at how 20 00:01:03,480 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: things are trending right now, what is going on across 21 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: the country, Interesting news item from the last hour or so. 22 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 1: Just as a teaser, here we have the Biden DOJ 23 00:01:15,640 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: announcing a one thirty Eastern time press conference on a 24 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: national security issue. Could be much ado about nothing, Clay, 25 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: let me just ask you before we got other things 26 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: to break down, Biden speaking over the weekend on a 27 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: number of issues, and how these races are breaking down. 28 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: We'll do that in a second. What are you feeling 29 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,480 Speaker 1: on the one thirty DOJ press conference? What do you 30 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: think if we had a menu of possibilities, what's the top? So? 31 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 1: I think what they will do is say that they 32 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: have uncovered some sort of Russian or Iranian smear attempt 33 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: for to influence our elections, which will then allow them 34 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 1: to pivot back to the threats of our democracy and 35 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: how dangerous it is, and as we sit here fifteen 36 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: days from the mid terms, it will also give them 37 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: a convenient excuse, because remember the whole Russia collusion lie 38 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,440 Speaker 1: was based on a few thousand dollars. I think of 39 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: Russian Facebook ads that have been purchased, which, for anyone 40 00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 1: who has ever bought ads in a digital context, is 41 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,079 Speaker 1: virtually nothing. Two other possibilities floating around out there. I 42 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: would say buck one is this could involve Elon Musk's 43 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: potential purchase of Twitter. I think it would be aggressive 44 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: to say something associated with that, but maybe they pause it, 45 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: don't allow it to go forward based on finding state 46 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: action that is occurring inside of Twitter's database. And then, 47 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: by the way, the other one would obviously be and 48 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 1: this would be a crazy hell Mary that they are 49 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 1: saying something about the Mara Lago investigation and Trump. I 50 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 1: just find that to be stunning. I think it'll be 51 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: the former. There's going to be a state actor who 52 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 1: has been doing something to try to impact the election, 53 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,960 Speaker 1: would be my bet. I mean, if they try, I 54 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: don't you know, I never you never want to underestimate 55 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:12,519 Speaker 1: crazy and desperate. Crazy and desperate put together can bring 56 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:17,560 Speaker 1: about all kinds of obvious insanity. And I think the 57 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: Democrats are very much in a position right now where 58 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,679 Speaker 1: they are getting desperate, where they are recognizing that this 59 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: is their focus on two issues, Democracy, which is up 60 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: certain that's the primary one, and abortion is a disastrous 61 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: They already realizing this, it's a disastrous policy. In fact, 62 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: one trend that I noticed over the weekend, and I 63 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: know you saw this too, very interesting in competitive places, 64 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:49,280 Speaker 1: competitive states, New York, Oregon. Guess what's going on everybody? 65 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: All of a sudden, with the midterms looming, there are 66 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 1: some Democrats who are really changing their tune. We are 67 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: two weeks away from election day. There's early voting on 68 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: her away, right, I mean, this is super late in 69 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: the game. You have two things going on. Clay. One, 70 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,320 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, Kathy Hokel, the governor of New York, 71 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: is saying, Yeah, we're gonna put a lot more cops 72 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: on the subway because the subway is really not safe 73 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 1: enough and we take safety seriously. Oh oh, hold on 74 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: a second, Clay, just a few days ago, a few 75 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 1: weeks ago, I mean, the mayor of New York was 76 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 1: saying the subway is fine. It's just a perception issue. 77 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: You mean to tell me that she realizes her jobs 78 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: on the line, and now she's pro cop All of 79 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: a sudden, What a shock. Yeah, that is not a surprise. 80 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,920 Speaker 1: And I think we're gonna talk about this a little 81 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: bit later. But I really have made this analogy for 82 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 1: a while, But every time I look at the Democrat arguments, 83 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 1: it feels to me buck like Democrats are tanking for 84 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,159 Speaker 1: the overall number one draft pick in a sport. For 85 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: those of you out there who are not big NBA 86 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: or NFL fans who pay a lot of attention to this, 87 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: typically the worst team gets the first pick. If there's 88 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 1: a really talented playmaker out there. A lot of times 89 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: teams that are battle say we want that number one pick. 90 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: The difference is that actually makes sense, Buck in the 91 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,799 Speaker 1: context of sports sometimes because you can get an elite, 92 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: transcendent player. It really feels like the incompetence here of 93 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: the Biden White House has no payoff going forward other 94 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 1: than abject misery and failure. And I have to point 95 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 1: out to everybody what you bring up their tanking to 96 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: get the number one pick is tied into the plot 97 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: line of the fantastic movie Major League, which is about 98 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: the Cleveland Indians. Used with any other sports franchise that 99 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: may or may not exist out there, just none, make 100 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: sure everyone gets that one right. And Clay, you also, 101 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,799 Speaker 1: you see that in New York the subway has become 102 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: and I grew up in the y it's a symbol 103 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: of the danger and the thing is because everybody really 104 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: who's working and not able to work from home at 105 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,040 Speaker 1: some point you've got to be on the subway. I mean, 106 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: unless you're fortunate enough to live walking distance to work 107 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: or you're a car commuter, if you're in New York City, 108 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna be on the subway at some point. And millions, 109 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: literally millions are on a day to day basis. I 110 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: think it's two million riders a day something like that, 111 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: so or two million rides a day. So that's a 112 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: huge indicator of what's going on here. All of a sudden, 113 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: at the last moment, Kathy Hokel, who's missed, Oh, we're 114 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: gonna put up gun free zone signs in Times Square 115 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: that's going to protect you, which is idiocy, and we 116 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 1: all know that she's saying we're gonna put more cops 117 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,920 Speaker 1: on the subway. Mayor Eric Adams is also now saying 118 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna put more cops on the subway. All of 119 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,919 Speaker 1: a sudden. What was fearmongering? All of a sudden, what 120 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 1: for months Republicans I've been saying, is being adopted. And 121 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 1: in some ways, the even more amazing one Clay, I 122 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: know you saw this was Ted Wheeler, who we give 123 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 1: credit where it's due here. We're very honest, I have 124 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: said many times that Build A. Blasio was the worst 125 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: mayor in America, but I'd always throw in there runner 126 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 1: up Ted Wheeler of Portland, like Portland's Ted Wheeler was 127 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: a particular is a particularly awful mayor. And he has 128 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 1: come out now to say that the I think it's 129 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: hundreds of unofficial but established homeless encampments in the city 130 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: of Portland have got to go. He's finally come out 131 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: and said, you know, We're not just going to allow 132 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: this endless siege of homelessness against the city. Who are 133 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 1: these people sounding like lay They're sounding like you and 134 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: me and their critics all of a sudden when people 135 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 1: are going to start voting. Yeah, Well, this is what 136 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: sanity versus insanity what we've talked about for the run 137 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: up to the mid terms, and I think, frankly, is 138 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 1: going to be what we talk about as we get 139 00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: ready for the twenty twenty four presidential election. A lot 140 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: of times you can take away Democrat and Republican and 141 00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: just replace it with insane, insane. Many Democrat policies are 142 00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: actually insane. And here is the numbers coming out of Portland. Buck. 143 00:07:57,520 --> 00:08:00,040 Speaker 1: This is I'm reading our guys at OutKick got it 144 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: it up. Eighty one percent of residents of Portland believed 145 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: that the George Floyd protest were disastrous for their city. 146 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 1: I mean, think about how woke and left wing and 147 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: filled with white liberals a city like Portland is probably 148 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: Portland Buck, I think you'd probably agree, was the woke 149 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 1: topia for woke white people. Still a very white city. 150 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: They all went in on the idea of America as 151 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:36,000 Speaker 1: an awful, racist, deranged, fundamentally evil place. And now eighty 152 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: one percent of voters think the George Floyd protest were 153 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: disastrous for the city. You might have seen the TV 154 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: show Portlandia, which was about that about Portland as this 155 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: uh pseudo but it was like kind of a thing, right, No, no, 156 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 1: of course, but but I'm saying, but they would make 157 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 1: jokes about how people before they could like eat it, 158 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 1: you know, eat chicken nuggets, needed to know, well, what 159 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: was the chickens name, what were the chickens aspirations in life? 160 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: Did he have you know, plenty of free roaming area 161 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. It was it was 162 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 1: the distillation of lifestyle liberalism. But when it's when it's 163 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 1: about food and it's about you know, handicrafts and things 164 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: like that. That's all fine. Lives are good at that 165 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: as good. It's frustrating, but it's not like destroying the country. Right. 166 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: But when you talk about public safety, when you talk 167 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: about efficiency and government, when you talk about law and order, 168 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: these ideas they have are are insane. I mean, that's 169 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: that's the only way you can say it. And I 170 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: have to say as well, you know, because I'm down 171 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: here in Fort Pierce, I'm at WPSL fifteen ninety here 172 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 1: and Florida just got it and we got to Desantist 173 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: debate tonight. I'm gonna be there against Charlie Christ. The 174 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: Santabelle Causeway, which you talked about last week has been 175 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: has been rebuilt, and it's really I know it sounds like, oh, well, 176 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: how how much of an achievement is that? If you 177 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: what was washed away in the destruction and you see 178 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,360 Speaker 1: what it is now in two weeks, this is remarkable. 179 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: I mean it's a remarkable achievement in engineering, the first responders, 180 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 1: the people that did this. But it is being overseen 181 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: by Rhonda Santis. Flip flip to the other side of 182 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: the page. Clay in California, Gavin Newsom has now said 183 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 1: that the one point three million dollar solo public toilet 184 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,360 Speaker 1: is such an embarrassment and it was going to take 185 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: three years to build it, that this is unacceptable. California 186 00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: spends one point three million dollars on and three years 187 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: to build one public toilet, okay, And in Florida they 188 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: can get disaster relief done to including a causeway and 189 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: now I know it's a long process, a lot of rebuilding, 190 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: but they can do projects like the rebuilding of the 191 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: Santable Causeway in two weeks. Yeah. Well, not only that 192 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,839 Speaker 1: in California. We mentioned this, I think on the show Buck, 193 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: but the trillions of dollars they're spending on that railway. 194 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 1: The train that basically is going from nowhere is supposed 195 00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 1: to go La to San Francisco, right, and instead it's 196 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: gonna go like not to either of them, and it's 197 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:14,079 Speaker 1: way over budget and nobody's gonna ride it. And it 198 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 1: is to me an embodiment of the failure of a 199 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: big government system when only one political party's involved. That 200 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,559 Speaker 1: train may truly be there may be flying cars by 201 00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:27,320 Speaker 1: the time that train is finished. Like I'm not kid. 202 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean, if you look at the projection, boondog, it's 203 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 1: gonna be finished like next century and this is just 204 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 1: what And you say, well, how I think this is 205 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: so important too? How is this possible? Because this all 206 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: comes back to folks, why is cost of living so high? 207 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 1: Why is inflation so high? Why does everyone in America 208 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,719 Speaker 1: feel poorer and less certain of the future. There are 209 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 1: reasons for this that tied directly to the Democrat Party, 210 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: to the decisions they've made, to the ideology that animates 211 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. And it's unavoidable now, I mean, that's 212 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: why there's this possible red wave, likely red wave that's 213 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,119 Speaker 1: going to happen now, I mean Clay the San Francisco 214 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,320 Speaker 1: Recreation and Parks Department, when they were explaining, how do 215 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: you even spend like, honestly, how do you spend one 216 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: point three million dollars on one toilet? It was quote 217 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:16,800 Speaker 1: cost of planning, of permits, of reviews, of permits, of 218 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: public outreach, of construction management for a toilet. That's how 219 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 1: you spend one point three million dollars. That is this 220 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: is a microcosm of the California public school system, of 221 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: the California public sector unions go down the list they're 222 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: destroying these states. It's also a perfect representation of people 223 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: who don't understand business because there is no cost associated 224 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: issues with something like this. Right. Government is not typically 225 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: very efficient. Lots of big companies are not efficient. But 226 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:51,280 Speaker 1: for any of you out there that have worked where 227 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: profit is the motive, sooner or later somebody looks at 228 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: the books and says, we are spending way too much here. 229 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: We talked about this last week. Buck, really do believe 230 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 1: that you could cut half of all federal employees and 231 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: one fell swoop and the overall efficiency of our federal 232 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: government wouldn't change at all. Clay, we might have to 233 00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: gas up and get going with the Clay and Buck helicopter, 234 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,080 Speaker 1: which doesn't exist yet but maybe one day, and get 235 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:22,360 Speaker 1: our buddy Senator Ted Cruz a quick expiltration out of 236 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: the view. Is she finally done over there? Because the clips, wow, 237 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 1: does it go? Does it end at noon? The clips 238 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: over there have been Yeah. I literally was watching this. 239 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: It's great, you got it. Will we'll tell you. Senator 240 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,560 Speaker 1: Cruz went into the lions Den and it is exactly 241 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: what you expected. We'll get to some of that coming 242 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: up here, and also the latest polls. But It is 243 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: important day in and day out to make sure you're 244 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: prepared for whatever comes your way. That means taking inventory 245 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: of how well you and your family are prepared for 246 00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,600 Speaker 1: an emergency. Doesn't have to be something you're thinking about constantly, 247 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: but a couple times a year. Take stock, take inventory, 248 00:13:55,520 --> 00:13:58,880 Speaker 1: plan smartly. Believe me, it'll pay off the moment you 249 00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,079 Speaker 1: need it. Or than just making sure you have enough 250 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 1: spare batteries, it's factoring in larger events that can affect 251 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 1: us and our neighbors for days, perhaps weeks on end. 252 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: Buying emergency food is a critical part of a preparedness plan. 253 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,280 Speaker 1: I have emergency food at home, so does Clay. But 254 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: you've got to get it from a place where it's 255 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: actually high quality food. It's gonna last you for many years, 256 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 1: and it's exactly what you need at a great price. 257 00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: That's what you get when you go to My Patriots Supply. 258 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 1: They've really thought this through. They know this business backwards 259 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: and forwards.

Start out with Dub is a handsome 283 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 1: genius and scholar of the highest order, things like that. 284 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: So that'll get you, That'll get you in the mix fast. 285 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:48,160 Speaker 1: That's how you appeal to everybody out there, all right, 286 00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: So Buck right beforehand, I didn't even know. I haven't 287 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: watched the view live on television. I think we're gonna 288 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 1: have a few clips from it. But Ted Cruz was 289 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: on the View lie in New York City. I don't 290 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: think you saw it because you're in Florida gearing up 291 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: for that Chris DeSantis debate. But I watched the whole thing, 292 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: and first of all, they had a heckler's, which I 293 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 1: don't know. I've never watched the View Full Disclosure live 294 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,640 Speaker 1: before in my life, so but I would imagine that 295 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 1: they typically don't have hecklers. They then had to go 296 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 1: to break in order to get them out because they 297 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: were all screaming at Ted Cruise. Now, Ted Cruise even 298 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 1: I think there were like five women sitting at the 299 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 1: table and they all like teed off on him or 300 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: whatever because they all hate him. But I give him 301 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: credit for having him on. And this is not going 302 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: to surprise you. I mean Ted Cruise was an Ivy 303 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:46,680 Speaker 1: League debate champion and so he really fillayed all of 304 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,000 Speaker 1: these women right there on their show in front of 305 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,960 Speaker 1: their audience. And I'm curious how much play this will 306 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: get on social media. Did they have to dial down 307 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: the hostility a little bit though, because I saw a 308 00:16:57,280 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: clip where audience members were shouting profanities at him, right, 309 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: So at that point, when you're the hosts, it's actually embassing. 310 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: It's embarrassing, right because if you bring them actually apologize 311 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: to cruise for their audience's reception and response to man. 312 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: I was on the Bill Maher show for the first 313 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,520 Speaker 1: time and someone in the audience who was actually calling 314 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: out Bill, and I was like, this is he wasn't 315 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 1: I didn't bring this guy. But someone stood up and 316 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: interrupted the show and in the middle of the show, 317 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 1: and I would can tell you that this staff is 318 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,840 Speaker 1: legitimately they get flustered by that because it's their house. 319 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:31,239 Speaker 1: You know that they their response, right, So what did 320 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:33,880 Speaker 1: they do then? Did they just cut tape and bring 321 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 1: it back as if it hadn't happened. He was alive 322 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: and they had security escort the guy out, and that's 323 00:17:39,040 --> 00:17:40,959 Speaker 1: that's how they do that kind of stuff. But you know, 324 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: it never I don't know people that want to shout stuff. 325 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: It's so it's childish, it's not not worth it. Let 326 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: the cruise debate them and crush them. Yeah, and look again, 327 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,920 Speaker 1: I give credit for them having him on, but but man, 328 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 1: it was pretty good television. I mean, people screaming into 329 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: crowd everything else. I enjoyed it. Uh.

Welcome back to Clay 344 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:55,720 Speaker 1: and Buck. On this Monday, October twenty four, fifteen days 345 00:18:55,760 --> 00:19:00,479 Speaker 1: from the big day, and some fascinating dynamic playing out 346 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: all across the country. One of them is that we 347 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: were right about everything. We were right about, meaning you me, Clay. 348 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 1: We were right about COVID, about crime, about the border, 349 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 1: about inflation, all these things, and it's finally catching up 350 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,159 Speaker 1: to Democrats. But there's also the overhang here, or the 351 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: backdrop of a Biden administration that is run by at 352 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:25,800 Speaker 1: least in theory. People always get mad at me to 353 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,679 Speaker 1: say he's not really the president. The people around him 354 00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: are okay, well, he is still the figurehead though right 355 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:35,159 Speaker 1: he is still the guy Joe Biden is the most 356 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: incompetent president. That's a very different argument than because I 357 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 1: remember making arguments about the Obama white House, the Obama 358 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 1: administration that was their ideas were bad. I disagreed with 359 00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: what they were trying to do, and there was obviously 360 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: we could talk for hours and hours about what was 361 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: going on then, but there was a competency in the 362 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: socialism and big government enacting that was going on. There 363 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 1: was some sense that while their ideas were bad, everyone 364 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: knew that Barack Obama, like knew what was going on 365 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 1: and was calling a lot of the shots with Joe Biden. 366 00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: Not only do you have bad ideas and in many 367 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: ways just a continuation of the Obama presidency and an 368 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: extension of some of the far left ideas that Obama 369 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 1: began to enact or began to make a function of 370 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:29,679 Speaker 1: national policy at the execut for the executive branch, you 371 00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: have a guy who just doesn't really know what's going on. 372 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: That's one part of this. And here we had an 373 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: MSNBC interview with Joe Biden where it becomes very clear 374 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: this is not someone who should be and I shouldn't say, 375 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: it becomes we've known this all along. But yet again, 376 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 1: here is Joe Biden when he's asked specifically, are you 377 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: slowing up? And the numbers would indicate, even without knowing 378 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: anything about Joe Biden, just based on age, of course 379 00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: he's slowing up. But here is his response to it. 380 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 1: If it's it's almost a minute here, but we want 381 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: you to hear this is the commander in chief of 382 00:21:04,200 --> 00:21:08,639 Speaker 1: the United States right now, the number one executive Play 383 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: clip two. I think it's a legitimate thing to be 384 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,680 Speaker 1: concerned about anyone's age, including mine. I think it's totally legitimate. 385 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: But I think the best way to make the judgment 386 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 1: is to to you know, watch me. You know, am 387 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 1: I slowing up? And I don't have the same pace 388 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,440 Speaker 1: as her? You know? And that old joke you know, 389 00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: Um everybody talks about the you know, the new seventies, 390 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: fifties and all that stuff. You know. I you know, 391 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: it could be I'm a great respector of faith. I 392 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 1: could get a diseased tomorrow. I could you know, drop 393 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 1: dead tomorrow. But I you know, in terms of my 394 00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 1: energy level, in terms of how much I'm able to do, 395 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: I think people should look and say they still have 396 00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: the same passion for what he's doing. I mean, Clay, 397 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: it's it's insulting. Am I slowing up? He says, while 398 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: he meanders and mumbles and is slowing up. I can't 399 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 1: believe they let him keep doing interviews. And I'm not 400 00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: someone who believes that you should have to hide the 401 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,840 Speaker 1: president and put him in the basement and basically script 402 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: as few of activities as you possibly can. But buck, 403 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 1: every single time he does an interview, I think he 404 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: destroys further credibility for himself and his administration. I mean, 405 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: he is the best asset right now that Republicans have. 406 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 1: I mean the fact that he went on the road 407 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 1: and campaigned for John Fetterman and said that he thought 408 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 1: it was really important John Fetterman wins. I mean that 409 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:52,440 Speaker 1: is to me a gift for doctor Oz's campaign, because 410 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,119 Speaker 1: I can't imagine for even if you voted for Joe Biden. 411 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 1: And I know there are some of you listening right 412 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: now who did vote for Joe Biden, and I bet 413 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: if you are listening to us, you are part of 414 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 1: a large majority of people in the country who wish 415 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 1: that Joe Biden was not now the president. And you 416 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:11,800 Speaker 1: bought into the idea that he was going to restore 417 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: normalcy to the White House and that the adults were 418 00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: going to be back in charge, and that he was 419 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: going to run the nation in a bipartisan basis, and 420 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: you just didn't see and or know how decrepit and 421 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 1: dementia laden this guy was gonna be buck Just listening 422 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: to that interview, imagine what his conversations that are unscripted 423 00:23:29,760 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: are like with global leaders. There's no way if he's 424 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 1: talking to Chairman z in China, or he's talking to 425 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: NATO leaders in the rest of the world right now 426 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 1: that they are looking around after that call and saying, 427 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: you know who's really on top of things. Joe Biden. 428 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: Just compare him to Santis and the response to the hurricane. 429 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 1: Just the ability to process information and know what's going 430 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: on in the world. Joe Biden is a broken old 431 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: man who doesn't have the where with all to run 432 00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 1: a single gas station, much less the United States government. 433 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,040 Speaker 1: And you also touched on I think a critical second 434 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:13,719 Speaker 1: component of the awakening that is going on right now 435 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: across the country for people that are finally and let's 436 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: just say, in the last few weeks, maybe the last 437 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: few months, saying this has gone too far, this is crazy. 438 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 1: On the one hand, there's the obvious slowing down sinility 439 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:30,160 Speaker 1: early stage of dementia component, and also just the lack 440 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,200 Speaker 1: of energy of being that age. Look at that age, 441 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: there's a lot of amazing things you can do, no 442 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,479 Speaker 1: question about it. Being President of United States is not 443 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,680 Speaker 1: one of them. Okay, not to the fullest extent that 444 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 1: is needed for the maximum benefit of the republic. But 445 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,040 Speaker 1: put all that aside for a second. You mentioned Joe 446 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,560 Speaker 1: Biden was supposed to be a uniter. He was really 447 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: supposed to calm the passions of the lunatic left. You know, 448 00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: that was how they sold him to Democrat swing voters 449 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,119 Speaker 1: or eccentrists or moderates or you name it. It was 450 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 1: Joe Biden. You know he's not crazy. Meanwhile, back in reality, 451 00:25:05,480 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: as in what's actually happening, Biden just at the White 452 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:16,760 Speaker 1: House hosted a transgender TikTok star named Dylan mulvaney. And 453 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,479 Speaker 1: this is Joe Biden. Old man. Joe Biden is supposed 454 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 1: to be kind of traditional, Clay, Joe Biden, the friend 455 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: of the union, the working man, the lunch pail over 456 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: your knees when you're doing the coal mining. You know, 457 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: all this this total propaganda around Joe Biden. They've been 458 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: pushing yours. This is what he says about transgender surgery 459 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: slash affirming care whatever they're calling it for miners. Play 460 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: clip three. Do you think states should have a right 461 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: to ban gender affirming healthcare? I don't think any state 462 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 1: or anybody should have the right to do that. As 463 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: a moral question. As a legal question, I just think 464 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: it's wrong. I just want to be clear, Clay, your 465 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,520 Speaker 1: home state, we had on the Attorney general for Tennessee, 466 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: what last week, Joe Biden here the president nined states, 467 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: mister moderate, you know, you know gun Totin loved the Constitution, 468 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,240 Speaker 1: blue dog Democrat Joe or whatever that Joe Biden is 469 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:15,240 Speaker 1: saying that states that are that are preventing gender mutilation 470 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 1: of children is immoral and illegal. That's the Joe Biden 471 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: who sits in the Oval office. Yeah. Look, and again 472 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 1: I would go and continue to echo that. I think 473 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 1: we have Biden voters. I think we got a lot 474 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: of black, Hispanic Asian voters out there, especially parents. What 475 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: do we say that the parents are breaking. I think 476 00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:36,199 Speaker 1: it was sixty four to twenty nine, like basically a 477 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: thirty five point margin. If you have kids, you are 478 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly voting Republican this mid term. I think it's because 479 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,359 Speaker 1: this is evil. Let's just call this what it is. 480 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,480 Speaker 1: And before I get into the transgender affirming care buck, 481 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 1: we don't allow kids to get tattoos under the age 482 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 1: of eighteen years old because we're worried about what tattoos 483 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: they may get and we don't want that to be 484 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 1: on their arms or their legs, or their backs or 485 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,960 Speaker 1: wherever you get a tattoo for the rest of their lives. 486 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: Yet we're going to allow fourteen year olds to get 487 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 1: their genitals chopped off and change their gender forever, and 488 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: it's a moral right, and states shouldn't be trying to 489 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,440 Speaker 1: protect miners teenagers from making life altering decisions like this. 490 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: I question whether Joe Biden buck can even comprehend what 491 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: he's saying on this issue, because I find it impossible 492 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 1: to believe he really believes it. It also, though, goes 493 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 1: to the reality here that Joe Biden, his entire presidency 494 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 1: was sold to the American people on really a series 495 00:27:40,800 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: of lies. Now people are yelling out right now what 496 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,800 Speaker 1: those lies are. There's a lot of them. But the 497 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:51,320 Speaker 1: notion of Joe Biden as a moderate, uniting, calming presence 498 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 1: in American politics. You just heard the presence of the 499 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: United States say that anyone who tries to stand in 500 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 1: the way of activists decide to push a fourteen year 501 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,359 Speaker 1: old to cut off her female breasts and take testosterone 502 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 1: or whatever to transition to mail. Anyone who stands in 503 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 1: the way of that is immoral and breaking the law, 504 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:16,159 Speaker 1: although or you know, it's not legal based on what 505 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: Joe Biden knows nothing about the law. But that's who 506 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:21,119 Speaker 1: the president is right. Now. Everyone they always say, Clay, Oh, 507 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: it's just a minor issue. Wide Republicans make such a 508 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 1: big deal of it. This is when the president of 509 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,880 Speaker 1: the United States, it's a big deal. And we should 510 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: also make clear. I think, Buck, if you're over eighteen, 511 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: if you are an adult and you want to get 512 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 1: these treatments, they're allowed. Now, we can question whether it's 513 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,480 Speaker 1: going to ultimately make the person who's doing it happier. 514 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: But all we're saying right here is we shouldn't be 515 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: doing these kind of surgeries to minors. We shouldn't be 516 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 1: cutting genitals off of fourteen year old children. Crais Biden 517 00:28:51,320 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: was asked about this is all about children and state 518 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 1: laws protecting children from the transagenda of gender affirming care, 519 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: meaning removing removing genitalia, cutting off brests, putting puberty blockers 520 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 1: inlay all these things, and Joe Biden says, there's a 521 00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,040 Speaker 1: moral duty to allow that. That is, that's mister moderate, 522 00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: uniting Democrat that you can trust who's not is not crazy. 523 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: So the closing argument, Buck, this is what the Democrats 524 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: are focused on. I mean, this is the tank for 525 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 1: the number one pick argument. I'm making it. It's mind 526 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,120 Speaker 1: blowing to me. Come back. We do have some some 527 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: of those Ted crews view clips from the view which 528 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna want to hear. But right now we've got 529 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: a very important mission. Unborn children need our help. No 530 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: organization knows that better than the people working with the 531 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: Preborn Pregnancy Clinic. They hear and see the heartbeats of 532 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 1: unborn babies every day, and at each of the preborn clinics, 533 00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: their mission is to allow expectant mothers to see the 534 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: child they're carrying with a free ultrasound. The bond is 535 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 1: often immediate, and the subsequent decision is to choose life 536 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 1: for that child and no longer contemplate an abortion. It 537 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 1: is a heartfelt moment, a life changing one, oddly one 538 00:30:00,840 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 1: when the ultrasound and love and caring and support is 539 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: all that is needed, is all that is provided. That 540 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 1: happens with donations to preborn from individuals like you and me. 541 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 1: We set a goal of helping to rescue forty thousand babies, 542 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: one ultrasound at a time. One ultrasound is just twenty 543 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: eight dollars, and now through a match, your gift will 544 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,640 Speaker 1: be doubled. Any gift size will help. I know times 545 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: are tough, I know inflation, I know those bills are 546 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 1: rough right now. But your donation is tax deductible and 547 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 1: you can help save a tiny baby's life today.

Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show, 557 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,240 Speaker 1: top of the next hour. I'm gonna run you through 558 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 1: with my election nerd sampling of both the most recent 559 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 1: polls and also the gambling odds, kind of a coalition 560 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: of those to take you out to Arizona to Nevada, 561 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:23,120 Speaker 1: to Wisconsin, to Pennsylvania to Georgia, all of the battleground 562 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:26,480 Speaker 1: states that are going to decide in many ways, what 563 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: exactly the makeup of the Senate looks like in twenty 564 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: twenty two. As we sit here fifteen days out. I 565 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 1: will give you the absolute latest there. But we're having 566 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: some fun Senator Ted Cruz, who is scheduled to join us, 567 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 1: I believe on Wednesday, and I'm going to be at 568 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: a rally with him Buck here on Wednesday in my 569 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: hometown of Nashville, actually Franklin, just south of town, where 570 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 1: we have a competitive congressional seat makes up part of 571 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: the Nashville's congressional seat. Cruise on a bus tour, and 572 00:31:57,560 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 1: I'm going to be appearing with him and who I 573 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 1: think is going to be the next Congressman from the 574 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: Nashville area, Andy Oguls, which should be a lot of fun. 575 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: So if you're in the Franklin area, you can google that, 576 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 1: you can come hang out, and we're going to be 577 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 1: doing an event there. But I wanted to make sure 578 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:21,360 Speaker 1: that everybody out there was aware of the fun that 579 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: was had earlier. The View made the decision to have 580 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: Ted cruise on now he was in New York. I 581 00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 1: saw last night a lot of Yankee fans Buck were 582 00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: not giving Ted Cruz a great welcome, and the Yankees, 583 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 1: aster believe they gave him what is called the Bronx salute. 584 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: I do believe that they gave him the Bronx salute. Indeed, 585 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 1: it did not go fabulously well for them, as the 586 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,920 Speaker 1: Yankees were eliminated by the Astros. So everybody out there listening, 587 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 1: we got monster audiences in New York City and in Houston. 588 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: So that was a battle of two different fan bases 589 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,720 Speaker 1: that are listening to us, probably quite a bit right now. 590 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,880 Speaker 1: But I told you I was watching this a lot. 591 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,760 Speaker 1: This was just about an hour ago. The ladies of 592 00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:05,200 Speaker 1: the view had ted cruise on. He started talking and 593 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: hecklers began to yell out listen. And that is when 594 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: the federal government spends too much money. Okay, we have 595 00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: seen trillions and trillions of dollars spent by Joe Biden 596 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 1: the Democrats. Just last year. Last year, the federal government 597 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 1: took in four trillion dollars in tax revenuence, most money 598 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 1: in history we've ever taken in. The problem is we 599 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,440 Speaker 1: spent nearly seven trillion dollars. And that's what we do. 600 00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 1: Cover climate. Ladies, ladies, extos us. Let us do our job. 601 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 1: Let us do our job. We hear what you have 602 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: to say, that you got all the Goldberg has to 603 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: yell out at our own audience. Book. It's it's interesting 604 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: to see. First of all, it's very it's like, you know, 605 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: their people right their audience. You know. It's like when 606 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: you and I see someone listen to our show, they 607 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: want to like high five or hogle whatever. There are people, 608 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: this is their people at the view of their audience, 609 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: and it's so disrespectful actually to the host to do 610 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: this to a guest. Yes, but here's the thing, because 611 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:08,720 Speaker 1: it makes the host look bad, like they look amateurish, 612 00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: they look they look you know, second tier, they look JV. 613 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: But but also it's just a reminder conservatives just don't 614 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 1: really do this. I mean, once in a very rare 615 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,759 Speaker 1: while you'll see someone who yells something at someone. But 616 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,839 Speaker 1: I really do think this goes into the evidence pile 617 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,759 Speaker 1: for being a leftist today is an anxiety disorder, Like 618 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: there are people that are emotionally disordered from their beliefs 619 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:35,560 Speaker 1: about climate and threats to our democracy and like they're 620 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 1: just crazy. They It is emblematic of the culture that 621 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 1: the left has created where if anybody has a disagreement 622 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:47,480 Speaker 1: with you, you don't actually debate them on the issue. 623 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: You try to shout them down or question the legitimacy 624 00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:52,879 Speaker 1: of their right to speak, which is what we see 625 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 1: happening on campuses all over the country unfortunately right now. 626 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,320 Speaker 1: And it's one thing I give credit to the Ladies 627 00:34:59,360 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: of View and I've I've very rarely done this on 628 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: this show. They vote allowed Ted Cruz to come on 629 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,799 Speaker 1: the show and make his arguments for their audience. Now 630 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:10,839 Speaker 1: they questioned him aggressively about it. But that's what should happen, 631 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 1: right People have different opinions, should address each other and 632 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 1: get outside of their silos and screaming and yelling and 633 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: saying you can't speak here is the exact opposite of that. Yeah, 634 00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 1: this is also why people sometimes I'm sure you get 635 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,360 Speaker 1: this too. They'll say, hey, you guys should have on 636 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: and you were doing a solo show before, when I 637 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 1: was doing a solo show, same thing. You guys should 638 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: have on this liberal and really have it out. The 639 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,960 Speaker 1: problem is on radio people now everyone just wants to 640 00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 1: talk over each other. You have to have so much 641 00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: respect and discipline on radio to have a debate that's 642 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: worth hearing. That doesn't turn any cross talk, but it 643 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: goes to show you on TV TV, it's it's a 644 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: little bit easier. There's you know, there's visuals to go 645 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 1: with it. There's visual cues. But Clay, imagine if we 646 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:54,719 Speaker 1: actually had Democrats have to go like I would love 647 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: to debate a Democrat on the wisdom of Joe Biden's 648 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 1: position about surgery miners, transgender surgery for miners. But it 649 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: doesn't exist anywhere. No one ever debates on the left anymore. 650 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,720 Speaker 1: They just preach to the choir. I've said this forever. 651 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 1: In the world of sports, take it outside of politics. 652 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: I will debate with any person in the country who 653 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 1: has a substantial audience whether girls should have to compete 654 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,960 Speaker 1: against boys based on gender ideology. Find the most brilliant 655 00:36:25,200 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: transgender scholar who wants to take that perspective in the 656 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 1: world of sports. I will show up and I will 657 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: crush them. They won't debate, they won't actually allow their 658 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 1: opinions to be challenged. They just won't do it. Got 659 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 1: a bunch of Paul's folks, the latest races that's coming up,
