1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,400 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:04,720 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:12,160 Speaker 2: Welcome in. We are rolling reacting to the big night 4 00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 2: in Milwaukee. I am Clay Travis. You are listening to 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 2: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show. We have got so 6 00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 2: much to discuss with all of you. Reminder that my 7 00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 2: buddy Buck Sexton, he's got a great picture up from 8 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: the Scottish Highlands. He is in Scotland with his lovely 9 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 2: wife Carrie this week. He will be back with me 10 00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 2: on Monday. I am sure both rested, probably nicely air 11 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,599 Speaker 2: rated thanks to wearing a kilt for a week, and 12 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 2: filled with an abundance of things that we will dive into. 13 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 3: It'll be a lot of fun. 14 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:49,880 Speaker 2: But in the meantime, we have got a loaded show 15 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,720 Speaker 2: for you, reacting to last night's big event, the first 16 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,640 Speaker 2: Republican primary debate in Milwaukee. We are going to be 17 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 2: joined just so you know, because there could be some 18 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 2: fireworks from both of these interviews. Vivek Ramaswami is going 19 00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: to join us at one, and then at two, Chris 20 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: Christie is going to join us, both fresh off of 21 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 2: their debate appearances. We may have other candidates joining us 22 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 2: before the week is out. But both of those guys 23 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 2: going to come on and discuss everything that took place 24 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 2: on the stage last night. We'll open up the phone 25 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 2: lines eight hundred and two eight two two eight eight two. 26 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:36,119 Speaker 2: But I've got a ton of reaction that i want 27 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:40,520 Speaker 2: to share with you. I love watching debates. I sat 28 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: down in my hotel room in New York City. I 29 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 2: pulled out my yellow legal pad. It was just me, 30 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 2: a grilled cheese sandwich and two plus hours of the debate. 31 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 3: That was what I did last night. 32 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,320 Speaker 2: That was my wild night, just off Times Square in 33 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 2: New York City, grilled cheese sandwich, a glass of water, 34 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 2: and a yellow legal pad and a debate over the 35 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: future of the country. And so my big picture takeaways 36 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 2: were these. I thought it was a really good night 37 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 2: for the Republican Party. There was virtually nothing that occurred 38 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 2: on the stage from Candidate one all the way to 39 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: candidate eight. And I will rank them and tell you 40 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: how I believed each of these candidates did. But if 41 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 2: you compare the last time we had a big debate, 42 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 2: which was the Democrat debates that Joe Biden ended up 43 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: triumphing in to be the nominee. The Democrats are crazy. 44 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,679 Speaker 2: They came out. If you remember the twenty twenty debates, 45 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 2: they all agreed that transgender taxpayer funded abortions should be 46 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 2: the law of the land. And I remember when that 47 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 2: conversation happened. Everyone agreed with it. I remember even trying 48 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 2: to figure out what that meant. So I was trying 49 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 2: to do as like a math equation when you're not 50 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: really that familiar with geometry or algebra two and you're 51 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 2: trying to figure out, now, what does the exponent do? 52 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:06,959 Speaker 3: Where? 53 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: How did the how the parentheticals work here? Transgender taxpayer 54 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 2: funded abortions. I was like, I don't even know what 55 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: that means. And I had to go back and reconsider. 56 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, that is dudes, Oh sorry, chicks that 57 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 2: are pretending to be dudes that actually are chicks that 58 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: have babies, and we should be paying for it. And 59 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, I can't, like, everybody agrees that this is 60 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 2: something that should be going on. We should be paying 61 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: for abortions for chicks pretending to be dudes who got 62 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 2: pregnant and are pretending that they have mustaches and not ovaries. 63 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: I don't understand it all right, So that in and 64 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 2: of itself was a mess, and I thought it all 65 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 2: was a mess. But I think a primary takeaway for 66 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 2: all of you to keep in mind is the single 67 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: most ridiculed candidate from the twenty twenty Democrat debates was 68 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 2: Joe Biden, and he ended up the nominee. So I 69 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: know some of you were active on social media Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, 70 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: talk maybe wherever you may be. Take everything with a 71 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 2: grain of salt. I'm being honest with you here. I 72 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: have not read one word of debate coverage because I 73 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 2: love to watch the event myself. If you're watching on video, 74 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 2: these are my notes. This is my trustee yellow legal pad. 75 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 2: All I need is a pen and a legal pad, 76 00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: and I'll make sense of the world for you. 77 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 3: This is it. 78 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:39,360 Speaker 2: So I'm not being artificially conditioned in some way by 79 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 2: what somebody else said. I didn't react at all to 80 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,559 Speaker 2: the postgame chatter. I didn't watch Fox News. I didn't 81 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 2: watch Sean. No offense to Sean Hannity. I'm sure he 82 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:53,359 Speaker 2: did a fabulous job. I went and did. Some of 83 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 2: you may have watched it an immediate video recap, because 84 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 2: I don't want to be influenced by what people say 85 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: about the debate. I want to be able to react 86 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 2: exactly to what I saw, and we're going to allow 87 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 2: you to do that too, And I'm going to tell 88 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: you exactly what I saw. So one really good night 89 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,040 Speaker 2: for the Republican Party. I thought there was a lot 90 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,360 Speaker 2: of very impressive performances, but I would break the candidates 91 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 2: down in three different tiers. To me, it is indisputably 92 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,120 Speaker 2: true that the three best candidate performances last night in 93 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 2: no particular order, because I think you can agree or 94 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 2: disagree about the order. 95 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 3: But I think the top tier, the best. 96 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 2: Three gold, silver, bronze as it were for the debate, 97 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 2: or viveg Gramaswami, Ron DeSantis and Nicki Haley. I thought 98 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:51,240 Speaker 2: those were, without doubt the three best performances on the stage. 99 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: I thought the next tier, and I'll break down each 100 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 2: of these contenders over this hour and explain what I 101 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 2: thought they did well why I thought that was the breakdown. 102 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 3: The next tier. 103 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 2: I thought Mike Pence, Chris Christy, and Tim Scott all 104 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:07,839 Speaker 2: had moments. 105 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 3: Where you said, hey, you know what. 106 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 2: That was a strong inter play in inert exchange for them. Pence, Christy, Scott, 107 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 2: mid tier ASA Hutchinson and Doug Bergham had no business 108 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 2: being on the stage at all. And I don't mean 109 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 2: that in a super negative way. I just mean I 110 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 2: don't know what we gained by their inclusion at all. 111 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,359 Speaker 2: Doug Burgham, I think is probably a good guy. We 112 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 2: should invite invite him on the show if we haven't 113 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: had him already. I certainly can see why I would 114 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,239 Speaker 2: want to invest in North Dakota's governor. When it comes 115 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 2: to business. I think he's really really good at it 116 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 2: based on my understanding and reading of his past. That 117 00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 2: impresses me about him, and those of you listening in 118 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 2: North Dakota seemed to be very happy with what he's 119 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: done as a governor. Here's what doesn't work for me, 120 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna work my way up from bottom to 121 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 2: top here. As we moved through the show, here's what 122 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 2: doesn't work for me. I don't care that you like 123 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: to ride horses. I don't care that you live in 124 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 2: a small town. I don't care that you believe that 125 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 2: farmers should help other farmers. That's not something that really 126 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: appeals to me. As Oh, that guy has to be president. 127 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: That's a compelling story that might work in North Dakota 128 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: the whole. I can gaze off an expansive terrain from 129 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 2: my western farm. 130 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 3: And it's beautiful. I don't disagree. 131 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: I like really pretty vistas too, but it doesn't to 132 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,520 Speaker 2: me present a compelling narrative on why you should be 133 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:40,640 Speaker 2: the president of the United States. 134 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 3: So I don't know why Doug Bergham was there. 135 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 2: He had the one moment where he pulled out the 136 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: Constitution Save some chicks for the rest of us. Doug, 137 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 2: you didn't even need the prop. You can argue for 138 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 2: federalism and why the tenth Amendment matters without needing to 139 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 2: pull out a prop. It felt desperate, felt desperate to 140 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 2: need to pull out a prop on the stage, especially 141 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 2: when it's a prop that we all know exist, a 142 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 2: prop like that, like Trump pulling out a evidence of 143 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 2: his tweets. 144 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 3: You remember when he was on CNN for the town hall. 145 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 3: That was genius. That was unexpected. 146 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 2: The fact that you have a copy of something that 147 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: has existed for hundreds of years and somehow like, here's 148 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,320 Speaker 2: my Constitution copy, Well, we know what it says. Make 149 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,320 Speaker 2: your argument. I thought it was a week Asa Hutchinson. 150 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: I don't I don't know who the forty thousand people 151 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: who have donated money to ASA Hutchinson are if you 152 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,319 Speaker 2: maybe you're listening to me right now and you're one 153 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: of those forty thousand, I think you might as well 154 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 2: have lit your money on fire and used it to 155 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 2: warm up and maybe roast marshmallows. I don't know what 156 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,920 Speaker 2: you're doing giving money to ASA Hutchinson because I have 157 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 2: no idea what he actually stands for. I question whether 158 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: forty thousand people actually donated to ASA Hutchinson. 159 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 3: And if you did, I think. 160 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 2: You would have spent your money more more favorably, using 161 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 2: it to put over a skewer and roasting marshmallows to 162 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 2: make smores for your family. 163 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 3: I think you used your money poorly. Pence. 164 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,440 Speaker 2: Here's my issue with Pence, and I just told Alli, hey, 165 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,240 Speaker 2: let's invite Mike Pence back on the show. I think 166 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 2: Mike Pence is a man of principle. He reminds me 167 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: as a kid who grew up in the South. He 168 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 2: reminds me of a deacon at church. There is nothing 169 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 2: wrong with any deacon at church. I respect what they 170 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:33,600 Speaker 2: try to do for their church. However, most deacons I 171 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 2: wouldn't want to be president of the United States. And 172 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 2: when I look at Mike Pence, if you're going to 173 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: run your entire campaign on the idea that you are 174 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 2: a principled man who did what was right on January sixth, 175 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 2: if that is your campaign, that is your chief argument. 176 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 2: And this is the issue that I had with Mike 177 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 2: Pence when he came on the show. Stick to your principles. 178 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 2: I think Mike Pence believes Donald Trump should be in jail. 179 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 2: I really do. If you believe that, just tell us. 180 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 2: I think Mike Pence is trying to claim that he's principled, 181 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 2: but he's not willing to stick to his principles all 182 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 2: the way. I fundamentally disagree with Mike Pence on the 183 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 2: fact that he won't commit to giving Donald Trump a 184 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 2: pardon one hundred percent disagree. You've heard me talk about 185 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:28,439 Speaker 2: this on the show. You heard me fight with Mike 186 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 2: Pence on the show and argue about it. I believe 187 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: that Mike Pence is not being true to his principles, 188 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 2: and as a result, I don't buy that he's a 189 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: principled candidate, and I think it's the logical fallacy that 190 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 2: destroys his entire campaign. 191 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 3: I thought he had good. 192 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 2: Moments, but I think ultimately, when he won't commit to 193 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: a consistent, principled stand on the Trump related Jan six issues, 194 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 2: I think he falls apart Chris Christy. Look, I respect 195 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 2: that fact that Chris Christy is willing to go into 196 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 2: that arena and play the heel role. When Brett Baher 197 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 2: had to ask people to stop booing so Chris Christy 198 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,679 Speaker 2: could speak, I felt like Chris Christy was the equivalent 199 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: of the WWE villain who shows up to drive the 200 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 2: crowd crazy. I respect Christy, We're going to talk it 201 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 2: to I respect the principles he's arguing for. Here's the challenge. 202 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,520 Speaker 2: He can't win and I think you saw that last night, 203 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 2: and so I'll ask Chris Christy this in the third hour. 204 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 2: If you can't win, And I think deep down he 205 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 2: knows that he's not going to be the Republican nominee. 206 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: Why are you in the race? 207 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 2: And if Trump's not going to be on the stage 208 00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 2: and you're not going to go after Trump because Trump's 209 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 2: not going to show up for any of the debates. 210 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 2: To me, Chris Christy's in a position where he should 211 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 2: endorse somebody he thinks can beat Trump because that would 212 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: actually be the principled stand. 213 00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,920 Speaker 3: And then Tim Scott. 214 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 2: Tim Scott to me was the most disappointing candidate on 215 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 2: the stage because I expected him to be in the 216 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 2: upper tier because I think he has upper tier talent, 217 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 2: and it felt like to me he set back and 218 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 2: decided to mostly not speak during the course of the debate. 219 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 2: So that is my analysis of the bottom five. I 220 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: will tell you about the top three when we come 221 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 2: back and what I liked about each of them and 222 00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 2: why I think Rohn DeSantis, Vivike Ramaswami and Nikki Hayley 223 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 2: had the three best debate performances and looked the most 224 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: presidential in last night's challenge. That will come up here 225 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 2: momentarily eight hundred and two eight two two eight A 226 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 2: two reminder the ay Ramaswami in forty five minutes roughly, 227 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 2: and then we will talk with Chris Christy in the 228 00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:01,839 Speaker 2: final hour as they tell us what they thought of 229 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:05,840 Speaker 2: the debate itself. Why did the Santus, Ramaswami, and Haley 230 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 2: do the best? I'll tell you next in the meantime, 231 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 2: online identity theft crime that affects far too many of 232 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: us when the actual crime occurs. 233 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:14,760 Speaker 3: Only person that knows is a cyber hacker. 234 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 2: If your online identity stolen, you find out weeks or 235 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: months later when your bank notifies you or your credit 236 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 2: card gets shut off. 237 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 3: That's often too late, but if. 238 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 2: You have LifeLock by Norton, you have a much better 239 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:27,200 Speaker 2: chance at intercepting the play before the damage is done. 240 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: Lifelock's online identity theft protections what you need to have 241 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,560 Speaker 2: in today's digital age, single most effective way to protect 242 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 2: yourself online.

He'll be back with me 259 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: on Monday. Maybe new of the new great Scottish accents. 260 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 2: So he missed last night's debate, I guess would have 261 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 2: been taking place in the early morning hours in Scotland. 262 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: But the man who did not miss last night's debate 263 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 2: one of many. Vivek Ramaswami with us now and I'm 264 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 2: sure you're still kind of rolling on adrenaline, Leveke, And 265 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 2: what is your biggest takeaway having left the stage was man, 266 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 2: they really ripped and attacked you more than anybody. Did 267 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 2: you anticipate it? What did it feel like? What's your 268 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 2: biggest takeaway? 269 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 4: I was happy the result was great for us. I 270 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 4: think we came out with a big win and I 271 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 4: wasn't totally shocked because the difference is what you see 272 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:22,240 Speaker 4: in the campaign polls are a lot more precise than 273 00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 4: what you get in the public narrative. And so I 274 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 4: started at zero point zero percent in the month of March. 275 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: I've now entered second place in many of the national polls. 276 00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 4: But when you see that trajectory change amongst the people 277 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 4: who are most knowledgeable in the voter base, that's something 278 00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 4: that I think worries a lot at the other campaigns, 279 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 4: and correctly so, so they can't at me hard. But 280 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: I was ready for it in the sense that I 281 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 4: don't do a lot of traditional prep with canned slogans, 282 00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 4: but talking to voters across this country, I've done more 283 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 4: events than any other campaign. That's been the best form 284 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 4: of debate preparation, and that paid off last night, and 285 00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 4: I was glad to come out of the winner. 286 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 2: Mike Pence seems to genuinely dislike you. Did you get 287 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,160 Speaker 2: that sense on the stage, Like sometimes people disagree. 288 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 3: I don't think Chris Christy dislikes you. We're going to 289 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 3: talk to him later. 290 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 2: I think Nicki Haley disagrees with you, And certainly I 291 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: think all of those politicians don't like being challenged by 292 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: somebody who's not a professional politician, which I think is 293 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: a big strength of yours. But when I watched Mike 294 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 2: Pence like he seemed to genuinely dislike you. 295 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 3: Did you get that sense? Like did you feel that way? 296 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 4: I actually, in one of the offline conversations, like into 297 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 4: the commercial break that congratulated Mike, I said, I didn't 298 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:36,360 Speaker 4: know you had that. I didn't know you had that 299 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,000 Speaker 4: in yet I'm proud of you, is actually what I 300 00:16:39,040 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 4: told him, because you know, he's always a meek man. 301 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 4: Seems like he's speaking what has been served up to 302 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 4: him by his speech writers or handlers. But he really, 303 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 4: at certain points, I'll give him credit, did almost seem 304 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 4: to be expressing independent beliefs of his own. And I 305 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 4: give a lot of credit to that. So I told 306 00:16:57,840 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 4: him I don't know how he took it. 307 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 3: So, By the way, that's. 308 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 2: An interesting point because when we go to commercial break, 309 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,880 Speaker 2: what is happening on the stage. 310 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 3: That's actually really interesting. 311 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,880 Speaker 2: I wonder about that because they go to commercial break 312 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,760 Speaker 2: Fox News does, and you can't really tell what kind 313 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:17,320 Speaker 2: of conversations happened behind the scenes during that commercial break 314 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 2: in backstage? 315 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,959 Speaker 3: What is the vibe like you know it was? 316 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 4: I think a lot of people find it awkward. I 317 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 4: was trying to break the Ice a little bit by 318 00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 4: just having real conversations with people like I lean over 319 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 4: to Ron to fan As. I just congratulated him on 320 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 4: what I thought was a good statement of what our 321 00:17:31,800 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 4: border policy should be. I think I'm glad he had 322 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 4: the guts to say what I've been saying the whole 323 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,640 Speaker 4: time as well, which is that we should use our 324 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:42,399 Speaker 4: own military on our own southern border under the circumstances 325 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,119 Speaker 4: that is legally, morally and ethically justified. And you know, 326 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 4: the moderators call on certain people for certain questions, and 327 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 4: so I had, you know, certainly a very detailed plan 328 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:52,639 Speaker 4: to offer if they called on me. They called on 329 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,000 Speaker 4: Ron instead, and I congratulated him saying the right thing. 330 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 4: I was happy about that. You know, with Pence, I 331 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 4: really was genuinely shocked, because part of what I usually 332 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 4: get through him in these backstage events of like, oh 333 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:04,679 Speaker 4: how are the wife and kids do it? That's all 334 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 4: we get to. They've never gotten to a subjective policy disagreement. 335 00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 4: But yesterday on stage, he really came hard with what 336 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,119 Speaker 4: he had been prepped with. I don't think any of 337 00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 4: it really landed, But to be honest, I was proud 338 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,400 Speaker 4: of Mike too, He's always been somebody in his role 339 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 4: as Vice president really seen as a bit of a 340 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 4: as a second fiddle at best, you know, something of 341 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 4: a stooge for the donor and establishment class. But he 342 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:33,359 Speaker 4: definitely did have an independent, fundamental difference in worldview with me, 343 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,199 Speaker 4: and I think that that's good for our party to 344 00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 4: smoke out. That makes out party stronger, it makes our 345 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 4: country stronger. There is a neo conservative dogma that has 346 00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,960 Speaker 4: pervaded the Republican Party for a long time that says, 347 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,360 Speaker 4: the way we increase our self confidences and enter pointless 348 00:18:49,359 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 4: wars abroad that have nothing to do with American interests 349 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 4: but make ourselves feel better about ourselves for some reason 350 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 4: at home. And if you want that view, then Mike 351 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 4: Pence or Chris Christie or Nicky Haley or any other 352 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 4: candidates on stage last night would be your candidate. But 353 00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 4: my view is different. I think we should lead this 354 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 4: country in a way that puts the interests of Americans first, 355 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 4: and that's a fundamental rift in the Republican Party. I 356 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: think it is good for our movement when we talk 357 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,359 Speaker 4: about that in the open. And my own view is 358 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 4: that we're stronger at home when we advanced the interests 359 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 4: of the homeland. The way I'm running this campaign is 360 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 4: America First, means all Americans, from Maui to the South 361 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 4: side of Chicago to Kensington to places I've visited the 362 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 4: latter two. Certainly in this campaign, I haven't talked to Zelenski, 363 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 4: but I did talk to Greg and Janet Ards, to 364 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 4: small business owners in Maui who tragically lost both of 365 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 4: their businesses and their family, but there was a third 366 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 4: business that still had a water supply that they were 367 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 4: then using to help the rest of West Maui. That's 368 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 4: who I think we ought to care about first before 369 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 4: using our taxpayer resources to literally pay the salaries of 370 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 4: Ukrainian government officials, which is what we're using our taxpayer 371 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 4: dollars to do today. And so people like Mike Pence 372 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 4: and I have fundamentally different views there, and I think 373 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 4: the debate last night was really useful to smoke out 374 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,720 Speaker 4: those differences so that voters in our primary can actually 375 00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 4: make their choice in an informed way, and I think 376 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 4: the debate was success for that. 377 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 2: We're talking to thevek Ramaswami, the veke I put up 378 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 2: and then I started off the show saying that to me, 379 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 2: three people stood out the most, you, Ron DeSantis and 380 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,159 Speaker 2: NICKI Haley is having a good night. I let people vote, 381 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 2: and in my poll you won with a majority, saying 382 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,679 Speaker 2: that you had the best night. So people can go 383 00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:33,879 Speaker 2: vote in that. By the way, I retweeted, it's tens 384 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 2: of thousands of you have voted in it so far. 385 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 2: You and I were two of the first people I 386 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 2: heard anywhere say what I give you credit for getting 387 00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 2: out of the head of is you got to pardon 388 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:48,439 Speaker 2: President Trump. 389 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:50,320 Speaker 3: You're one hundred percent right on. 390 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 2: That, and you have continued to argue it, and I 391 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 2: give you immense credit for it. Let me ask you 392 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:57,879 Speaker 2: a question. Buck and I had a conversation last week. 393 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 2: I think you're right on the principle that our country 394 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: does not need to try to put a former president 395 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 2: in prison, given what Ford did for Nixon, put that 396 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 2: behind Watergate is left Buck and I argued last week, 397 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 2: and I actually I'm curious abou how you would respond 398 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,359 Speaker 2: that it's actually not just pardon Trump, but if you 399 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 2: were the president, would you pardon Hunter Biden as well? 400 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,200 Speaker 3: With the idea being, hey, let's. 401 00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: Put this idea of putting political people in jail for 402 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:33,840 Speaker 2: being politicians and their families and move forward to a 403 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 2: new America. Would you extend that principle even to the 404 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 2: Democrat side of the isle. 405 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 4: Well, I do stand on principle, But the principal I 406 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 4: stand on is the rule of law. We have to 407 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:50,440 Speaker 4: have one standard of rule of law for all Americans, period. 408 00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 4: And so I think a lot of what's going on 409 00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 4: with the hunter Biden and the David wife, sham of 410 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 4: special prosecutor and the gun charges, which are you know, 411 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 4: caid smoke screen to deflect attention away from the real thing. 412 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 4: We should talk about the real thing. The real thing 413 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,119 Speaker 4: that I think may be wrong here and the facts 414 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 4: do not smell good to me, is that the Biden 415 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:15,800 Speaker 4: family is selling off our foreign policy to make the 416 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 4: Biden family rich, particularly with respect of China and even 417 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 4: Ukraine right now, the very country that we're saying. 418 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 2: I agree with you that I think they've engaged in 419 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 2: criminal behavior. 420 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 4: I mean, but this is of the highest order, right 421 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,679 Speaker 4: taking us closer to nuclear war, spending hundreds of billions 422 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 4: of dollars to make good on what appears to be 423 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 4: a five million dollar bride. So if that case is 424 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 4: brought in court, and if in court, it turns out 425 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,160 Speaker 4: that's really what happened. They deserve to spend serious time 426 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:49,120 Speaker 4: in prison, and I would not pardon for that offense. 427 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 4: But what I do care about is the rule of law, 428 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 4: and I will never be like them, and so I 429 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:56,239 Speaker 4: want to see the rule of law proceed. But what 430 00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:59,679 Speaker 4: we're having right now is the same forces that are 431 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 4: police persecuting and prosecuting Donald Trump were literally made up 432 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 4: fictitious legal theories that have never been used to prosecute 433 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 4: a defendant before. That's the same Department of Justice that 434 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:14,199 Speaker 4: is literally protecting that Biden crime family. And so I 435 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 4: could care less for a lot of the shams that 436 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 4: they're thrown around now. And usually I think it's coming 437 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 4: from the deep state on the gun charges or whatever 438 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,479 Speaker 4: else to create a deflection from the real thing. I 439 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,679 Speaker 4: think we have to have, I think impeachment inquiry on 440 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 4: the real question of whether or not these bribes are 441 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 4: affecting our foreign policy right now in ways that put 442 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 4: the United States of America at risk when you have 443 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,639 Speaker 4: a potential compromised president of the United States. But I 444 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 4: will never preordain a result and assume what the rule 445 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 4: of what the fact finding is going to say, I 446 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,560 Speaker 4: will never be them. I believe in the rule of law, 447 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 4: and that's what we actually need to restore. But that 448 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 4: gives you a sense for how I think about it. 449 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good answer, interesting answer of the veg Garamaswami. 450 00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 2: And I think one reason people enjoyed your performance is 451 00:23:57,200 --> 00:24:01,280 Speaker 2: you say what you think, even if you don't necessarily 452 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,240 Speaker 2: make people happy in the traditional Republican establishment. And that's 453 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 2: why your performance last night in many ways to me, 454 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 2: seemed similar to Trump in fifteen when he was beginning 455 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 2: his run. 456 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 3: So let me ask you this. 457 00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 2: You said Trump is the best candidate, the best president 458 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 2: in the twenty first century. If you are running to 459 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 2: beat Trump, that means that you think you would be 460 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 2: a better president than Trump. What would you do better 461 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,159 Speaker 2: than what Donald Trump has. 462 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,399 Speaker 4: Done unite the country? I mean, I think that's what 463 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 4: it comes down to. And I think that allows us 464 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 4: to take our America First agenda even further than Donald 465 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,640 Speaker 4: Trump did. And I stand by what I said last night. 466 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 4: We have Bush, Obama, Biden, and Trump. Who is the 467 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 4: best president of the twenty first center. It's not even close, 468 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 4: hands down if you're judge by the results of that. 469 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,159 Speaker 4: And yet It made a lot of people uncomfortable, including 470 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: on stage. You could palpably feel it when I said that. So, 471 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:58,520 Speaker 4: Donald Trump sets a high ball. But we in this country, 472 00:24:58,600 --> 00:25:02,600 Speaker 4: we don't just aspire to normally. We aspire to excellence. 473 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 4: That is who we are as Americans. And so it 474 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 4: is my job to build on the foundation that Trump 475 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 4: laid to take us even further, not just building the wall, 476 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 4: but using the military to seal the border, not just 477 00:25:13,320 --> 00:25:15,679 Speaker 4: putting Betsy Devas on top of the Department of Education 478 00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 4: and say reform it, shut it down, not just talk 479 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 4: about the importance of fighting wokeness, but actually end affirmative action, 480 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 4: which was created by Lyndon Johnson via executive order. We 481 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 4: can end affirmative action in this country and in our 482 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 4: economy on any government contractor that's currently required to adopt 483 00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:34,160 Speaker 4: race based quotas. That starts from the government, and any 484 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 4: Republican president could have taken a pen and crossed it out. 485 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 4: I will. But why am I able to go further? 486 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 4: It's because I'm doing it grounded in first principles and 487 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 4: moral foundations. And we go further if we're grounded in 488 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 4: principle and so a few things that a share in 489 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 4: common with Trump as I'm an outsider. He and I 490 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 4: are the only candidates in this race who are not 491 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 4: entirely bought and paid for. In fact, I am putting 492 00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 4: immense amounts of my own money into this campaign to 493 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 4: avoid having to be somebody else's circus, which is the 494 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,119 Speaker 4: way our politics works today. And that's what I admired 495 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:05,639 Speaker 4: about Donald Trump and continue to admire about him as 496 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 4: an outsider. But I think it takes an outsider who 497 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 4: also has an understanding of the constitution, a deep understanding 498 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,280 Speaker 4: of the constitution, so you're not duped by the managerial 499 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,480 Speaker 4: class and the advisors who tell Trump that, no, you 500 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 4: can't fire civil servants because of the Civil Service Protection rules. 501 00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,720 Speaker 4: Read the law that only applies to individual firings. It 502 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 4: does not apply to mass layoffs and math layoffs are 503 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 4: absolutely what I am bringing to the DC bureaucracy, a 504 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,320 Speaker 4: seventy five percent headcount reduction in federal employees. And so 505 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 4: I don't believe in incremental reform. I think the moment 506 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 4: for that is passed. 507 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 2: Do you think, by the way revolution do you think 508 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 2: Trump was duped by a lot of his advisors when 509 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 2: he went into office? 510 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 4: How so well, I think that day effectively came from 511 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 4: the same rot that he was going into cure. And 512 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:54,919 Speaker 4: I'll also be honest with you, I'm not saying that 513 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 4: I would have been any better in twenty fifteen, Okay, 514 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 4: But I believe in learning from the foundation laid by 515 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,439 Speaker 4: your predecessors to build on that. And so what I 516 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,359 Speaker 4: expect to happen is I will be the next president 517 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 4: of the United States. Donald Trump will be my most 518 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 4: valued advisors, something of a mentor actually, because I don't 519 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,960 Speaker 4: want to relearn those same lessons. I want to build 520 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 4: on the foundation he laid. But it will take someone 521 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 4: of a different generation. I'm thirty eight. I can reach 522 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 4: young people we already are. I want to build a broad, 523 00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 4: multi ethnic, working class moral majority like Reagan did in 524 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 4: the nineteen eighty landslide. I think we truly have an 525 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 4: opportunity to deliver that in twenty twenty four. People will 526 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,919 Speaker 4: say Trump can't beat Biden. I disagree. I think that 527 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 4: on current numbers and on the current trajectory of how 528 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:42,639 Speaker 4: Biden's doing, Trump probably could beat him in a narrow election. 529 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 4: But I'm the only person who can win in a landslide, 530 00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 4: and we are skating on such thin ice as the 531 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:51,040 Speaker 4: country right now, Clay that I don't think a fifty 532 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 4: point one election doesn't where MSNBC and CNN trod out 533 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 4: who the winner is the Monday after the election. No, 534 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 4: this has to be a landslide, more majority moral mandate, 535 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:06,159 Speaker 4: and I think that will take Yes, someone as the 536 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:09,119 Speaker 4: new outsider in the race, someone who comes from that 537 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 4: different generation, someone who is not a super pack puppet 538 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 4: but a patriot who speaks the truth, to be able 539 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 4: to take the America First agenda even further. And I 540 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 4: do think I'm the best positioned candidate to actually do it. 541 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 2: The last question for you, and that's really a strong answer, 542 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 2: Vivek Ramaswami. A lot of strong answers here. The night 543 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 2: after the debate, your critics, and many of them were 544 00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,200 Speaker 2: on the stage. I think are going to start to say, 545 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 2: if they haven't already, and you probably have heard the whispers, 546 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 2: Vivik's not actually trying to win. He is trying to 547 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: protect Trump and as a result, end up his VP. 548 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 2: I think we asked you about this last time, but 549 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 2: I do think allowing you to address it directly is important. 550 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 3: Are you trying to be Trump or are you trying 551 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 3: to be his VP? 552 00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 4: I'm trying to lead this country to a national revival 553 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 4: by being the next president of the United States. And 554 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 4: I don't think that that involves Trump. That involves taking 555 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,920 Speaker 4: the agenda and the movement that he began to the 556 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 4: next level further than he can right now. And I 557 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 4: can only do that as the next president. If this 558 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 4: is about me and my political career and getting close 559 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 4: to the seat of power, sure that would be your 560 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 4: number two position as vice president at the age of 561 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 4: thirty eight, Another nice little mark for my resume. That's 562 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 4: not what this is about. This is about our country, 563 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 4: and I don't think we have that much time. I 564 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 4: got a three and a half year old son. If 565 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,480 Speaker 4: he's in high school before we fix this, we're done. 566 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 4: I don't think we have a country left. I do 567 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 4: not want to see us march to some national divorce, 568 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,920 Speaker 4: and that is the direction we're heading in today. I 569 00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 4: think it will take somebody who is grounded in principle, 570 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 4: who is able to bring especially that next generation who 571 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 4: has lost any semblance of national pride in this country, 572 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 4: sixty percent of them saying they would sooner give up 573 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,600 Speaker 4: their right to vote than to give up their access 574 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 4: to TikTok who can best bring them along to revive 575 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 4: conviction in this nation we call home. And even between 576 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 4: Donald Trump and myself, when I think about who can 577 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 4: best do that from the White House next, I think 578 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 4: that is my job to get done. I think it 579 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 4: will be Donald Trump's job to not put himself through 580 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 4: the hell of that presidency. Again, to me, I don't 581 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 4: relish the idea of sitting in that White House either. 582 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 4: It is just a sense of duty that I'm the 583 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 4: best position to do it. I will rely on Trump 584 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,560 Speaker 4: as my mentor and my advisor to do it. And 585 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 4: that is I think, how we each do our part 586 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 4: to lead a revival of our nation. Because America first 587 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 4: and Maga, it is bigger than Trump. It is bigger 588 00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:31,480 Speaker 4: than me. It is about the people of this country. 589 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 4: This movement is not about one man. It's not about 590 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 4: any of us. It is about this nation and that 591 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:37,920 Speaker 4: is what we need to revive. And once we see 592 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 4: it that way, I think it will become clear. I 593 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 4: hope as I make my case that the voters will 594 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 4: put me in the office as their next president, and 595 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 4: when I leave office in January twenty thirty three, we 596 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 4: will look back and look at this moment we were 597 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:52,959 Speaker 4: in skating on thin ice. We will laugh at it, 598 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 4: say we were going through our version of adolescence, and 599 00:30:56,040 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 4: maybe take the young guy to say this, maybe our 600 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 4: nation is really just a little young. Actually, maybe we're 601 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 4: all just going through our own version of adolescents, figuring 602 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 4: out who we're really going to be when we grow up. 603 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 4: And I do think it takes somebody who God willing 604 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 4: let me hope that my best days are ahead of me. 605 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,960 Speaker 4: I don't take any day for granted, but I hope 606 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 4: and pray that my best days are ahead of me 607 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 4: in life at the age of thirty eight. Well, it 608 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 4: might just take someone who sees their own life that 609 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 4: way to see a nation in its own life that 610 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 4: way too. And I do believe that our nation's best 611 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 4: days can still be ahead of us. Maybe it has 612 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 4: to be a nation in decline, but that's not going 613 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 4: to happen automatically. 614 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 2: He's veg Gramaswami, give my props by the way to 615 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 2: your wife on her form on the burpies.

But I 689 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 5: really like Doug Burnham and I think Doug has been 690 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 5: a really successful governor in North Dakota. His wife Katherine 691 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 5: is a really solid, smart partner who's done a lot 692 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:33,480 Speaker 5: of extraordinary work in the drug addiction area. And I 693 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 5: think they'd be a very good first couple. 694 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:36,759 Speaker 6: And if I. 695 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 5: Couldn't vote for myself, I would love to vote for Doug. 696 00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 5: I think he's a good man. 697 00:35:41,560 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 2: All right, So let's talk about the debate that happened 698 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:48,799 Speaker 2: last night. You really went after Vivey Ramaswami. Obviously we 699 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,799 Speaker 2: know you went after Trump, but let's start with the veke. 700 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 2: What do you think of him? What do you think 701 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:54,920 Speaker 2: of his candidacy? 702 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 5: Well, look, I think when what offended me is ifitly 703 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 5: have a responding to a bake. You Now, when a 704 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 5: guy who's who's barely ever voted gets on the stage 705 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:10,760 Speaker 5: and says everybody but me on this stage is bought 706 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,440 Speaker 5: and paid for, I don't know how you take him seriously. 707 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 6: I mean, you know you've got folks up. 708 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,879 Speaker 5: There like Tim Scott and Nicky Haley, who have done 709 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:26,000 Speaker 5: great things for the state of South Carolina and selflessly served. 710 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:30,200 Speaker 5: And Nicky's husband is serving right now in the military 711 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 5: and on deployment. Mike Pence, you know, you can like 712 00:36:34,400 --> 00:36:37,160 Speaker 5: Mike Pence, not like Mike Pence, but the idea that 713 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,840 Speaker 5: Mike Pence is bought and paid for is ridiculous. Asa 714 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 5: Hutchinson is bought and paid for, you know, Doug Bergham 715 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:47,319 Speaker 5: bought and paid for. 716 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 6: You know, I just I found it offensive and I find. 717 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 5: It hard, and that's why I used the phrase I 718 00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:59,080 Speaker 5: did about chat GPT. He sounds like a guy who's 719 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:04,520 Speaker 5: looked up and researched all the buzzwords that will light 720 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 5: somebody up, strings them all together, say something that says 721 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 5: them as fast as he can without any type of 722 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:17,399 Speaker 5: you know, thought about what those policies would mean. 723 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 6: And so. 724 00:37:20,480 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 5: I can't take him all that seriously when the first 725 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 5: thing he does, when he comes up there, is accused 726 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:32,319 Speaker 5: the other seven of us of being bought and paid for, when, 727 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 5: by the way, there's no evidence of that. And quite 728 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:40,239 Speaker 5: to the contrary, he defends Donald Trump, who you know, 729 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:45,239 Speaker 5: his family is on the grip so deep that you know, uh, 730 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,840 Speaker 5: they're they're at least. 731 00:37:46,560 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 6: In the same league as Hunt Bikes. So that's the 732 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 6: guy he defends, and the seven of. 733 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 5: Us, you know, are are bought and paid for. So 734 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 5: that's my problem with to Clay the fact don't back 735 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 5: up what he's saying. And that goes with a lot 736 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 5: of the stuff that he said last night. And so 737 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 5: at one point I was tired of having his feet 738 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 5: on me and everybody else on the stage without getting 739 00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 5: responded to. So you know you want to smack me 740 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,640 Speaker 5: on from Jerseys, smack me. You're gonna get a smack 741 00:38:15,719 --> 00:38:16,319 Speaker 5: or two back. 742 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,479 Speaker 2: I thought you did a good job, by the way, 743 00:38:19,719 --> 00:38:23,640 Speaker 2: responding on the UFO question and turning it into an 744 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 2: interesting answer about the importance of trust, loyalty, and decency 745 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 2: when it comes to leaders and people who are talking 746 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,560 Speaker 2: to the people that they are attempting to lead. You 747 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 2: and look, part half of our audience is in favor 748 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:40,399 Speaker 2: of Donald Trump. The other half is rooting for somebody else. 749 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:44,800 Speaker 2: Right now, you clearly are anti Trump. At what point 750 00:38:45,080 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 2: do you look around. There were eight people on the 751 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 2: stage last night. Trump is not one of them. Trump 752 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 2: has obviously opened up a substantial lead. At what point 753 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 2: do you look I'm sure you've read the Wall Street 754 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 2: Journal make this argument that their needs to be a 755 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 2: thinning of the herd, so to speak, in order for 756 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 2: Trump not to win. If your goal is Trump not 757 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 2: to be the nominee, at what point do you look 758 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 2: around and say the anti Trump faction has to coalesce? 759 00:39:14,520 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 3: Are we there? What's that time look like in your mind? 760 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,279 Speaker 5: You know, my goal is to be elected president the 761 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 5: United States, not to see Donald Trump not elected president 762 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 5: the United States. So that's the first thing. Secondly, I 763 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:31,080 Speaker 5: think there will be a natural coalecting of it. But 764 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 5: I think you know, the Wall Street Journal editorial page 765 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:39,320 Speaker 5: trying to force that in August of twenty twenty three 766 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,400 Speaker 5: has never been successful in any race they've tried to 767 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 5: do that in or other media. 768 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 6: Folks try to do that in and it's going to 769 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 6: take some time. 770 00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 5: For people to get to know us and for it 771 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,240 Speaker 5: to become obvious to us as to who they should 772 00:39:54,239 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 5: collect behind. But I will say this, you know, I've 773 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,680 Speaker 5: been in the race for two and a half months. 774 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,440 Speaker 6: I'm now at fourty teen percent in New Hampshire. I'm 775 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 6: ahead by five. 776 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:07,240 Speaker 5: Points of Ron DeSantis, who was the far and away 777 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:10,879 Speaker 5: front running challenger when he got into this race. 778 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 6: He's now in fourth place in New Hampshire. 779 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:18,880 Speaker 5: So, you know, I feel like we've made enormous progress 780 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 5: in just two and. 781 00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,279 Speaker 6: A half months. And I will remind you also that 782 00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,720 Speaker 6: these national polls mean absolutely nothing. 783 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,759 Speaker 5: We don't have a national primary, and the race will 784 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 5: change when Ioland's vote. The race will change again when 785 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,440 Speaker 5: the residents of New Hampshire vote, and again when the 786 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:40,320 Speaker 5: residents of South Carolina and Nevada vote, and those first 787 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 5: four will cull the herd significantly, and we'll see how 788 00:40:45,239 --> 00:40:47,080 Speaker 5: it goes from there. And I think you might even have, 789 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:51,480 Speaker 5: you know, a smaller stage in late September, given that 790 00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 5: the criteria increase and some of the people who were 791 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:57,279 Speaker 5: on stage last night, you know, may not make it 792 00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 5: to next month. 793 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,240 Speaker 2: You mentioned the people that you didn't think were bought 794 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 2: and paid for in terms of the ak Ramaswami going 795 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 2: after that allegation that he made last night during the debate. 796 00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 2: You didn't mention Ron DeSantis. Do you think Ronda Santis 797 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 2: has bought and paid for? 798 00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 6: But what I think is he's rented. 799 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,760 Speaker 5: I think he's rented by big money interests in Florida. 800 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 5: You know, you don't raise eighty three million in Florida 801 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 5: and have that happened, it transfers to your presidential account, 802 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:39,319 Speaker 5: then raise more money, more soft money. I think that 803 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 5: and when you see that that super packed structure dictates 804 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,279 Speaker 5: your debate strategy. 805 00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 6: And we watched last night. 806 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 5: As he repeated, sometimes effectively sometimes that's effectively memorized soundbites 807 00:41:55,080 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 5: from you know, those those memos. The memo is so 808 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 5: effected that even Vivese was using a never back down memo. 809 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 5: And so you know, that's what makes me laugh about 810 00:42:09,200 --> 00:42:13,239 Speaker 5: you know, Viveke accusing everybody else. And this is a guy, 811 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,560 Speaker 5: you know who wrote a book, you know, condemning Donald 812 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,680 Speaker 5: Trump and his activities on January sixth, and then when 813 00:42:20,719 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 5: I call him on it on the stage last night, 814 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,839 Speaker 5: he says he never said it. Well, he wrote it 815 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,840 Speaker 5: in a book or his ghostwriter wrote it in the 816 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 5: book under his name. So look, I think that Ron 817 00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 5: has a lot to answer for in terms of the 818 00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 5: concept of his super pack and the conduct of you know, 819 00:42:39,960 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 5: his own campaign in the in there what appears to 820 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 5: be very very close coordination between the two, and that 821 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:49,320 Speaker 5: makes everybody a little bit squirrely. 822 00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 2: I think you mentioned vivecan now he is the ardent 823 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 2: and most ardent. I think it's fair to say defender 824 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 2: of Donald Trump on that stage last night. Is Theveke 825 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 2: in your mind? And we just had him on so 826 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 2: people can go listen to the interview that we did 827 00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 2: with him. 828 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 3: Do you think the Veke. 829 00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,320 Speaker 2: Is running to beat Trump and become president of the 830 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 2: United States or do you think he's auditioning to be 831 00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 2: as vice president. 832 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,439 Speaker 5: I think he's auditioning for something. I don't think, knowing 833 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 5: Donald Trump as well as I do, I might have 834 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 5: as good a chance to be. 835 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 6: Vice president as Vivek. 836 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,759 Speaker 5: Donald Trump's not going to pick somebody who shoots their 837 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:31,560 Speaker 5: mouth off like Theveke did last night in the number 838 00:43:31,560 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 5: two spot. He's going to pick someone who is much 839 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:39,879 Speaker 5: more controllable than somebody like the Veke. So I think 840 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 5: Veke may be, you know, auditioning for a cabinet position. 841 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 5: I think it would be honestly kind of silly for 842 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,040 Speaker 5: him to be thinking that he'd be picked for vice 843 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 5: president over a number of other people that I think 844 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:56,359 Speaker 5: the president, the former president believes he has better relationships 845 00:43:56,400 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 5: with and might be more of his prototypical type of 846 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:05,360 Speaker 5: vice president. Remember Mike Pence was selected as vice president 847 00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:09,359 Speaker 5: in twenty sixteen, and in part because, as he told 848 00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 5: Lee at the time, Mike Pence was out of central casting. 849 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:18,399 Speaker 5: You know, a quiet vice president that would not cause 850 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:22,799 Speaker 5: any trouble. I don't think anyone could describe the vake 851 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:23,279 Speaker 5: that way. 852 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 2: Talking to Chris Christy, he was on the stage last 853 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:30,840 Speaker 2: night in Milwaukee. Governor Christie, when you look now going forward, 854 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 2: you mentioned it's only August, though there's another debate in 855 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 2: a month. You mentioned some of those people may not 856 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 2: be on the stage. One of the things that's going 857 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 2: to continue to loom is Trump. And you came on 858 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 2: with us before right as some of the alley, right 859 00:44:44,040 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 2: as the Hunter Biden investigation blew up, and I thought, candidly, 860 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,440 Speaker 2: your strongest argument all night was that if you were 861 00:44:51,480 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 2: president of the United States, Hunter Biden would be in prison. 862 00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,399 Speaker 2: When you see, and I'm sure you've seen this, because 863 00:44:56,440 --> 00:45:00,719 Speaker 2: it's headlines everywhere that Fanny Willis is asking for that 864 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:05,640 Speaker 2: Rico case to go to trial now October twenty third, 865 00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,120 Speaker 2: that's basically two months from today. 866 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:12,239 Speaker 3: How crazy is that? What do you think this is 867 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:13,200 Speaker 3: going to look like? 868 00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:15,600 Speaker 2: Do you think the odds are based on your knowledge 869 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,400 Speaker 2: as an assistant, as a district attorney, state's attorney. Sorry, 870 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,440 Speaker 2: all the time that you spent prosecuting people. Do you 871 00:45:22,520 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 2: think Trump is going to be able to avoid these 872 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 2: cases going to trial? How many of you think would 873 00:45:28,640 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 2: go to trial between now and election day twenty twenty four. 874 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 5: Well, let me say this first off. That case is 875 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 5: in Atlanta, is not going to trial on October. 876 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, no shots, No. 877 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 5: Shots, Maybe October of twenty five. 878 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,560 Speaker 2: Governor, I asked, yeah, I said, when the October date 879 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: went up, they didn't put the year, and I asked 880 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 2: my staff. I was like, are they talking about October 881 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:55,040 Speaker 2: of twenty four? That surely she doesn't mean two months 882 00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 2: from now. So sorry to cut you off, But that 883 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:58,560 Speaker 2: was my initial reaction too. 884 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 3: I thought it was crazy, there's no shot. 885 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 6: Look, I think that there are two cases that have 886 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:06,280 Speaker 6: the chance to be tried. 887 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 5: At or before the Convention, the New York case and 888 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:19,399 Speaker 5: the January sixth case. I think that the classified documents case, 889 00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:24,279 Speaker 5: which I think is the strongest case against it, It's 890 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 5: going to take time to get people cleared to review 891 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 5: those classified documents, to get a jury selected, and all 892 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,319 Speaker 5: the rest. I have a hard time, believing that they'll 893 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 5: be able to try that case, you know, before the 894 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,879 Speaker 5: late fall of twenty twenty four. So I think your 895 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 5: maximum play would be the New York case, which I 896 00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 5: think very well could happen this spring, not a complicated case, 897 00:46:54,840 --> 00:46:58,600 Speaker 5: and the January sixth case because Donald Trump's the only defendant. 898 00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:03,799 Speaker 5: And I think that's the reason that Jacksmith did it 899 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 5: that way. He didn't please this big case like Fanny 900 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 5: Willis did because he wanted it to actually have a 901 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 5: fast track to trials. 902 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 6: So I think that could happen. 903 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:20,279 Speaker 5: Anywhere from like mid spring of twenty four into the 904 00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 5: early summer of twenty four. So I think he's going 905 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,960 Speaker 5: to be facing two trials, and Republican primary voters have 906 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 5: to ask themselves, is that really our best foot forward 907 00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:30,760 Speaker 5: to beat Joe Biden. 908 00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:33,400 Speaker 6: That's kind of what I said in my closing last night. 909 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 5: Like you think that Joe Biden and the Democrats are 910 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:41,600 Speaker 5: going to be afraid of Donald Trump, who very well 911 00:47:41,600 --> 00:47:46,440 Speaker 5: could be convicted felon in two different matters before the 912 00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 5: fall election, And that's who we're saying is our best 913 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 5: candidate put up against Joe Biden. Let's not make this 914 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:57,120 Speaker 5: a grudge match. The stakes are too high because Clay, 915 00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 5: let me tell you, if the Democrat, if Biden wins. 916 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:01,560 Speaker 6: He's going to take the house back. 917 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,000 Speaker 5: That means we're going to have Supreme Court packing. 918 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,799 Speaker 6: That means we're going to eliminate the filibuster. 919 00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 5: This is going to be a cataclysmic loss for the country. 920 00:48:15,440 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 6: If we don't nominate someone who can win. 921 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 5: And Donald Trump, given what he's facing and e they're 922 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 5: going to be hearing before trial, he's got to show 923 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:26,239 Speaker 5: up in. 924 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:29,680 Speaker 6: All that stuff. He's out on bail, Clay, you're not 925 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:33,680 Speaker 6: allowed not to show up. And that's going to be 926 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:37,480 Speaker 6: the circus we're going to be seeing between now and then. 927 00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,839 Speaker 6: And the shame of it is that. 928 00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 5: It is all self created, all of it. And I 929 00:48:44,680 --> 00:48:47,440 Speaker 5: can't imagine that Republicans are going to look at that 930 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 5: and say, yeah, that's two times felon. That's our best 931 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 5: shot to beat Joe Biden. Joe Biden wants Donald Trump, 932 00:48:55,360 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 5: and if we are dumb enough to give him Donald Trump, 933 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:00,720 Speaker 5: We're gonna really arm the country. 934 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:05,279 Speaker 2: Chris Christy, right off the debate stage onto the show, 935 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 2: appreciate the time. 936 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:10,239 Speaker 6: Clay always great being on the program, and please tell 937 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,280 Speaker 6: Buck I sick.

The Aker 958 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:21,720 Speaker 2: Amaswami I thought one of the best interviews we've had 959 00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,640 Speaker 2: with a candidate so far on this show. As we 960 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 2: have been in the process of doing this show over 961 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 2: the past couple of years, we got now I'm here 962 00:50:31,840 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 2: in New York. 963 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:35,160 Speaker 3: We have got a guy who. 964 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,200 Speaker 2: Has seen a few debates over the years, who was 965 00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:39,440 Speaker 2: getting ready to do his own show in about an 966 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,799 Speaker 2: hour and a half, and then we'll do another show 967 00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:44,040 Speaker 2: later in the evening. And also, I don't even know 968 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 2: when you got in. Were you in Milwaukee last night? 969 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:47,520 Speaker 2: I think I was in Milwaukee. 970 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 4: Guy. 971 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:50,919 Speaker 7: Let's say I didn't sleep a lot. But I love 972 00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:53,320 Speaker 7: this stuff. So for me, it's just a lot of fun. 973 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,479 Speaker 7: And I get to see it twice today. How great 974 00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:56,799 Speaker 7: is that? 975 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:58,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? 976 00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:00,920 Speaker 7: I like the debate. Thing that stood out to me 977 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:04,839 Speaker 7: big picture more than anything else is you know, I'm 978 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,279 Speaker 7: looking listening to these people, and then I'm thinking of 979 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:12,399 Speaker 7: Joe Biden, the corpse that is really cognitively is deteriorating 980 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:15,239 Speaker 7: before our eyes. And we've all discussed that, we all 981 00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 7: see it. But now he was an unmitigated disaster beyond 982 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:22,840 Speaker 7: the fact that he was cold and callous, out of 983 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 7: touch on vacation. No comment. I don't want to be 984 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:29,640 Speaker 7: a distraction, Okay, You're not going to be a distraction 985 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 7: when you're flying over what is a desolate area that 986 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,200 Speaker 7: has been burned to the ground. So I'm looking at 987 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:39,440 Speaker 7: these candidates. I did think some people have had a 988 00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 7: particularly better night than others. And I'm looking at these 989 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:44,960 Speaker 7: candidates and I'm like, oh my gosh, any one of 990 00:51:45,000 --> 00:51:53,640 Speaker 7: them looks that. Maybe Chris Christy and yeah, if he 991 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 7: was not so obsessed with Trump, Trump Trump. I can't 992 00:51:59,440 --> 00:52:03,960 Speaker 7: stand Republicans that love to be and become dupes of 993 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,279 Speaker 7: the liberal media and they are their great champion and 994 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:10,160 Speaker 7: they love him. John McCain went down that road and 995 00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:12,880 Speaker 7: the media loved him when he was criticizing his own party. 996 00:52:13,120 --> 00:52:15,719 Speaker 7: The minute that guy became a candidate for president, a 997 00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 7: real candidate. Yeah, they took every knife out of the savage. 998 00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,799 Speaker 7: They savaged them. Same with Mitt Romney, and then Mitt 999 00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 7: Romney goes back to trying to kiss theirs. 1000 00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:25,840 Speaker 3: I can't. 1001 00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 7: I just can't take it. And that's how I view 1002 00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,000 Speaker 7: Chris Christy in this race. And frankly Asa Hutchinson. Seriously, 1003 00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 7: so why are we wasting time on these people? 1004 00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 2: The vag we just had him on, people are reacting 1005 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,359 Speaker 2: to him. He was incredible on this on the hit 1006 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,040 Speaker 2: he just did with us. Is he in it in 1007 00:52:44,160 --> 00:52:47,560 Speaker 2: your mind to actually beat Trump? Because I asked him 1008 00:52:47,600 --> 00:52:50,520 Speaker 2: directly he said he is, or do you think really 1009 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 2: he wants to be Trump's VP? 1010 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,160 Speaker 7: It's I think you bringing up an interesting point. I 1011 00:52:56,160 --> 00:53:00,759 Speaker 7: think probably the latter, if he has realistic experts. One 1012 00:53:00,760 --> 00:53:04,800 Speaker 7: thing that I've learned about presidential candidates over the years 1013 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 7: is that they all think they're gonna win, and when 1014 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:14,160 Speaker 7: they lose, they were not expecting to lose. Al Gore 1015 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:17,760 Speaker 7: lost the election and then he lost his mind. Hillary 1016 00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 7: lost the election. Hillary kind of lost his mind. John 1017 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 7: McCain I would say the same thing. Mitt Romney went 1018 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:27,279 Speaker 7: off the Relves and I it just is because I 1019 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 7: think they believe in their mind they're gonna win. 1020 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:29,760 Speaker 3: Fiers. 1021 00:53:29,800 --> 00:53:31,319 Speaker 2: That's a good point because you have to have a 1022 00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:34,960 Speaker 2: certain level of delusion. You think, right, I'm going to 1023 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 2: run for president and I'm gonna win. I'm the greatest 1024 00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:40,879 Speaker 2: possible contender to get the most important job in the world. 1025 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,319 Speaker 2: That requires a level of delusion, like a lot of 1026 00:53:43,360 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 2: athletes have. 1027 00:53:44,200 --> 00:53:45,439 Speaker 3: You know you'll lose the super Bowl. 1028 00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:48,319 Speaker 2: It takes sometimes the starting quarterback who loses for a 1029 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:51,680 Speaker 2: long time to recover because you have to convince yourself 1030 00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,440 Speaker 2: you can do it, and then dealing with that failure 1031 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 2: when you put everything in is very difficult. 1032 00:53:57,040 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 7: It is, but it shouldn't be. 1033 00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:00,920 Speaker 3: I agree with you. 1034 00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,800 Speaker 7: I like, for example, Djokovic when he when he lost 1035 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 7: so what's his name, Alvarez in Wimbledon, right, Okay, there's 1036 00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:13,480 Speaker 7: no doubt he thought he was gonna win that match. 1037 00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,719 Speaker 7: He won the first set. I thought he was on 1038 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,360 Speaker 7: his way to winning and get another title. Yes, And 1039 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 7: first of all, the guy's his opponent was young, amazing, gifted, talented, 1040 00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 7: rising star for sure, and uh and then they're probably 1041 00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 7: going to face each other if I had to guess 1042 00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 7: in in the finals of the US Open. And you know, 1043 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:36,040 Speaker 7: but but I saw a graciousness. He had been through 1044 00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:40,400 Speaker 7: the experience of battling Federer and Nadal and and those guys. 1045 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 7: But you know, it's a lot, it's a lot like 1046 00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:47,720 Speaker 7: professional sports. What I find fascinating now is every every 1047 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 7: single sports show now is all about betting. It's all 1048 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 7: about betting. 1049 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 2: This one too soon, I think we're gonna have something advertised. Well, 1050 00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:58,800 Speaker 2: you know, rush, back in the day before sports gambling 1051 00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:01,200 Speaker 2: was legal, was one of the best people at signing 1052 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,200 Speaker 2: up people for DraftKings and FanDuel out there in the day. 1053 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 3: You guys did some of this too. He did some 1054 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:06,840 Speaker 3: of it to a ton of success. 1055 00:55:06,880 --> 00:55:09,200 Speaker 7: I do worry because I think some people that have 1056 00:55:09,280 --> 00:55:13,319 Speaker 7: addictive personalities, this is going to be an epidemic of 1057 00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:16,160 Speaker 7: people getting addicted to gambling that bothers. There's no doubt, 1058 00:55:16,640 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 7: and so I think there's a danger of it. But 1059 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:21,360 Speaker 7: I'm also a person that believes in freedom. You believe 1060 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,000 Speaker 7: in freedom. If you want to mess up your life, 1061 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 7: mess it up. 1062 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 2: What do you think by the way Trump is thinking? 1063 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 2: You may have already talked to him. What do you 1064 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:30,680 Speaker 2: think Trump is thinking in the wake of last night's debate. 1065 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:36,320 Speaker 7: You know, I didn't talk to him, yet I'm guessing 1066 00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:38,200 Speaker 7: he thinks that's it. 1067 00:55:39,680 --> 00:55:39,960 Speaker 6: Maybe. 1068 00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 7: Look, I didn't get involved in whether he should or shouldn't. 1069 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,400 Speaker 7: I understand why he didn't. And when you're up thirty 1070 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:51,040 Speaker 7: forty forty five points in a primary, you know it 1071 00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 7: was a good opportunity for him to look at the 1072 00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 7: competition and size it up. Who could actually challenge him? 1073 00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,040 Speaker 7: Conventional wisdom is that you're gonna have to whittle this 1074 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,600 Speaker 7: field down and make it a one on one and 1075 00:56:04,239 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 7: Republicans that don't want Donald Trump. And look, the guy's 1076 00:56:08,000 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 7: good at making a lot of enemies. Yes, the establishment 1077 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:14,279 Speaker 7: hates him and they will they have to call us 1078 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:20,920 Speaker 7: around one other person. However, don't underestimate his magabase. What 1079 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 7: I worry the most about for Donald Trump is that look, 1080 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:31,560 Speaker 7: these these these indictments, another arrayment, Tonight, fulland County. I mean, 1081 00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:35,040 Speaker 7: that's a heavy, heavy load. That's a big burden that 1082 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 7: he's carrying with him. Now. You could say that his 1083 00:56:38,560 --> 00:56:42,360 Speaker 7: entire presidency he had similar circumstances. He was working under 1084 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:45,479 Speaker 7: the Trump Rush, a collusion lie. It takes us five 1085 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 7: years to figure out the whole thing was total bs. 1086 00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:51,960 Speaker 7: There's something wrong with our system. And Joe Biden up 1087 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:56,320 Speaker 7: to his eyeballs and lies and involvement and in tens 1088 00:56:56,320 --> 00:57:00,400 Speaker 7: of millions of dollars from many hostile regimes, you know, 1089 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 7: enriching his entire family, nine family members. Nobody in the 1090 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,080 Speaker 7: media wants to talk about it. Clay the way, where's. 1091 00:57:06,760 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 3: Buck Buck is in Scotland? He and Carrie. 1092 00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:14,080 Speaker 2: He's not a golfer, but he and Carrie had never 1093 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:16,640 Speaker 2: been to Scotland before his wife.
