Let's start right off with 16 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 2: the president presidential election. Why did VP Harris lose? 17 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:43,880 Speaker 1: Oh? Man, I should have rolled my white board. 18 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 3: That many yeah, that many yeah. 19 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: And the reason why it's important, I literally have my 20 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: stuff in order because a lot of people MV said, 21 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,480 Speaker 1: you know, she lost because of this reason, she lost 22 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 1: because of that. And it's really in the Midwest. The 23 00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 1: tornado requires water, humidity, when you know, multiple things reason, 24 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,679 Speaker 1: it's not one reason. And when I hear people saying, 25 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: you know, oh, if he just did better with the messaging. 26 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: Oh if they did better with the media. I've really 27 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: kind of put together a list of flow chart on 28 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 1: how basically a colossal fuck up from top to bottom. 29 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: So you're doing yeah, we're doing atosy, we're doing to 30 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: pull autops. So if we just really take it from 31 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 1: the top, as we all said, Joe Biden should have 32 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: never ran, we have to first, you know, start there. 33 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,200 Speaker 1: Should have never ran. He said it was a one time, 34 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 1: it was gonna be a one term president. We talked 35 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: about it multiple times. He actually volunteered that life to say, hey, 36 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,800 Speaker 1: I'm only going to run one term. I'm coming in 37 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: just to stop Trump immediately. Then they should have started 38 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 1: building a base immediately right out the gate. Trump was 39 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 1: still campaigning this entire time. We talked about it. We 40 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 1: talked about how it was constant rallies, constant organizing. You 41 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: and I talked about it on the Van Jones Show. 42 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: We're saying, you guys really have to continue the organizing 43 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: year round. And that's why I blame a lot of 44 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: the people at the top who have the ear of 45 00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: the you know, of the candidates and campaign eltons, because 46 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: they've been told this multiple multiple times. So it should 47 00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 1: have found a white man right then and there who 48 00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: was going to be next in line to build a 49 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: white man, a white man, absolutely young white man, right 50 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: then and there. And it's not Governor Newsom. By the way, 51 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people keep saying that govern Newson will 52 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:14,959 Speaker 1: get swamped. 53 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 3: So you didn't think Kamala was gonna win, you, no, 54 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 3: right at the game? No, no, no question. He's a black woman. 55 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, so that that's number three. So let's first 56 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,560 Speaker 1: get that. So they should have establish a bitch saying 57 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:26,359 Speaker 1: didn't do that? Governor knew somebody just want to put 58 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 1: that out there. A lot of people like him, great debater. 59 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: He would have got swamped. You have to remember he 60 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: literally passed to be O K through twelve to have 61 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:37,160 Speaker 1: shared bathrooms with gender. So imagine what conservatives would have 62 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 1: did with that all over the nation, the homelessness and 63 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: all of that. So then, yes, number three, America was 64 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: not going to vote for a woman of color period. 65 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: And know, in the history of black women and white 66 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: women allyship a lleged allyship, I have never known a 67 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 1: white woman to give a job to a woman of 68 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:59,160 Speaker 1: color before they got it. That includes even McDonald's on fries, 69 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:00,959 Speaker 1: just not gonna have have you ever ever a white 70 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,840 Speaker 1: woman ever said you know what, I think you're more qualified, 71 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: We'll go ahead and take it. They didn't give it 72 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: to Hillary Clinton, that we're not going to give it 73 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 1: to her. I know there was hope. I know you 74 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: talked about, you know, believing in us, but it was 75 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 1: never about us believing in us. It was about us 76 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,679 Speaker 1: knowing them. It's not about being qualified. This was when 77 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: it came down to saying, they didn't give it to 78 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 1: Hillary Clinton, why would they give it to Harris? So 79 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: that was to me an era right out the gate. 80 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: But we had no choice because. 81 00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 4: Biden, I think Kamalot as a black woman is the 82 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 4: only reader. Well, first of all, two things the last 83 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 4: two elections, the Democratic Party need to be thinking black women, right, 84 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 4: because if it wasn't for Jim Clydeburn telling Joe Biden, hey, 85 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 4: I'm not endorsing you unless you promise that you're gonna 86 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 4: put a black woman on the Supreme Court, I'm not 87 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 4: endorsing you. So that's what made him endorse Joe Biden. 88 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 4: He went South Carolina and changes the complexion of his campaign. 89 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 4: If it was for Kamala Harris in twenty twenty I 90 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 4: think a lot of us wouldn't have went out there 91 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 4: and voted for President Biden. I didn't vote for Presdent Biden. 92 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 4: I voted Vice presd Kamala Harss. I also think in 93 00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four, when you look at the fact that 94 00:03:57,760 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 4: Joe Biden's presidency was dead, like completely dead in the water, 95 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 4: and Kamala Harris came to the top of the ticket, 96 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,120 Speaker 4: raised all of this money, ended up having the second 97 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 4: most votes of any Democratic nominee ever with seventy four 98 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 4: million votes. 99 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 5: I think that only happens because she's a black one. 100 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: Well, two things can be true at the same time. 101 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 1: There can be some positives they came with that, but 102 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: there also can be some negatives. Where we look at 103 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 1: the data, we don't have to guess. We looked at 104 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: where white women aligned, we looked at where the Latino 105 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: community aligned. We looked at the bottom line data this 106 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: show Latino men. 107 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 5: Was that was a surprise? 108 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, why was it a surprise? No? No, Latinos have 109 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: always the fifty fifty. They've always when you look at 110 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: one you know, I organized for the Bernie Sanders campaign 111 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: in Michigan. I was only black woman on the ground 112 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,039 Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen to helped lift that state. Latino community 113 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,039 Speaker 1: has always been divided. When you look at Florida and 114 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 1: you look at the Cuban community, they've always went conservative. 115 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: When you look at the Bernie Sanders the left side 116 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,599 Speaker 1: the California, they always go left. They have always strategued, 117 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,360 Speaker 1: and I ain't mad about it. They've always strategically been 118 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 1: able to have leverage because they go fifty to fifty. 119 00:04:57,279 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 1: You remember when Joe Biden told black leaders when he 120 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 1: won right after you said yeah, right, and you said 121 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: I owe you black people. Remember when they had the 122 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 1: meeting and they leave the tapes in front of the 123 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 1: Al Sharpton and all of them and say, y'all need to 124 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 1: go follow Latino community be cause they're the ones that 125 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: have the leverage. So I'm not mad at it, but 126 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: we need to talk about it for what it is. 127 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 1: There might be a black and brown coalition in New York. 128 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: You know, I've talked about that all the time. But 129 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: when you're talking about the set that changed too, they're 130 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: moving over. When you talk about the South, when you 131 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 1: talk about the Midwest, and particularly when you talk about 132 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:28,279 Speaker 1: the West. There is no black brown coalition, and it's 133 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: okay for people to vote their interests. Also, got news 134 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,120 Speaker 1: for you, black men are conservative. Doing my Joe Biden 135 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 1: whisper black people are conservative. I don't know why people 136 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: want to keep, you know, making that not an issue. 137 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,279 Speaker 1: So when you're talking about black men and you're talking 138 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 1: about other black people, with the majority of the country 139 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 1: in the South, majority of moderate I know progressives want 140 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: to sell a different story. But black people, for the 141 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 1: most part of martyrn and a lot of them lean conservative. 142 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: We're going to get into that when we get into 143 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,280 Speaker 1: the messaging, but let's just kind of go back a 144 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: little bit. I agreed that there was some positives to it, 145 00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: but when it came down to it, when we looked 146 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: at race, white women, to me, just like they did 147 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: in the mid term, just like they did when they 148 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: were with Obama. Then they went with Trump, and then 149 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 1: they went back to Democrats in the mid terms, and 150 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: then they flipped back. When you're talking about white supremacy 151 00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,640 Speaker 1: and talking about positioning like what they did with the 152 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: women suffrage movement, I just didn't see them doing it 153 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,039 Speaker 1: for a black woman over them. They didn't do it 154 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: with Hillary Clinton. The only person that ever beat Donald 155 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: Trump is Joe Biden, and I agree. 156 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 4: With but white women voting for Clinton fifty five percent 157 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 4: voting for Biden. So the white women been showing out 158 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 4: white women, white women have showed up three elections well. 159 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 1: But but they were also comfortable with Joe Biden. Let's 160 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 1: remember Joe Biden is one of them. Let's go back 161 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 1: to what. 162 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,599 Speaker 5: Fifty five percent of white women voted for Trump over Biden. 163 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: Right to align with white supremacy to a lot, because 164 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: this is about white supremacy. This is about would they 165 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 1: rather have their household ahead of you as as a 166 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 1: black man husbands. That's exactly I's wrong, and people need 167 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,239 Speaker 1: to stop these pundents. Get them another They went against 168 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: their own interest. No, their interest is their household. Your 169 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: interest is your interest. My interest is my interest. When 170 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: I keep hearing people say that they went against their 171 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: own interests, no, they've actually aligned with their interest, which 172 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: is white man, white woman, black man, black woman. That's 173 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: the order, That's how it is. Black people on the side, 174 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 1: check bottom line. We need to just accept that. I 175 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: know we want to say BlackGirl, imagine over we want 176 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: to say oh because black this and that black women 177 00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: can't save this country. We need to stop selling that dream. 178 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: Let's get in position and understand what we can do, 179 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: which is why I was talking about the local and 180 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: state level, and stop trying to sell this timeshare scam 181 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,880 Speaker 1: because to me, it was a timeshair scam. I agree 182 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: with you that there was really no other choice because 183 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,000 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was trash. We get that he was trash. 184 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: So once they said, okay, let's rally around Harris. Now 185 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: she's a Democratic nominee. Okay, so cool. We're with that. 186 00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: Black women raised thirty million dollars after Gate. Black men 187 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 1: raised thirty million ours Gate. So now we're having to 188 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: deal with who dropped this bag? Who dropped this billion 189 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 1: dollar bag? And that's the issue when we get into 190 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: how they spent the money. I didn't think she had 191 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 1: a chance in hell. But once you decided to move forward, okay, 192 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: so what do we do with the money? Black voters? 193 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 1: They lost Black voters across the board. That on two 194 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: across the board makes a difference when you're talking about Michigan, 195 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: makes a difference in North Carolin. So that's where we're 196 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 1: getting to your concern where you talk about messaging where 197 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: the messaging was all wrong. 198 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 3: I want to ask you about the money. 199 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 2: Is it normal for candidates to give so much money 200 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: to quote unquote entertainment When you see in that they 201 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 2: paid this person to speak and this person to have 202 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 2: that back. 203 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,200 Speaker 3: Is that normal when it comes to politics? 204 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 5: Who did they pay to speak? Though? 205 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 3: Well, allegedly we'll say people speA. 206 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:23,960 Speaker 1: You had to pay the speed, but the money that 207 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: it took to get the set up, the advanced team, 208 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 1: the entertainment. So let's go back a little bit. One 209 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,720 Speaker 1: hundred days was impossible even for a white man. In 210 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: my opinion, I just want to go back to one 211 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 1: hundred days. Running a campaign was damn near impossible for 212 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: anybody in particularly a woman of color. So now we're 213 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:42,200 Speaker 1: in this one hundred day thing. In order to get 214 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 1: people to come out, we do use entertainers, and I 215 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: push back on people say don't use entertainers. It's important 216 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: Killer Mike talks about it all the time. We need 217 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: entertainers to mobilize. When you're trying to get that stand field, 218 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: the twenty thirty thousand people, you have three days to 219 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 1: do it. We actually need our entertainers. The problem though 220 00:08:56,559 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 1: MV is the entertainers not necessarily being aligned with organizers 221 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: on how to use their voice throughout the year. I 222 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: would love to see pliers like work when an organizer 223 00:09:05,480 --> 00:09:08,520 Speaker 1: throughout the year, not just election season, so that we 224 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: can continue to have this conversation. So I don't want 225 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: to shit on entertainers. We need them. But when you 226 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:16,120 Speaker 1: have one hundred days and you're spending more on entertainment 227 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 1: setups and not on the ground, and you have organizations 228 00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 1: like until Freedom to make the matter they got and 229 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: again we can look at the numbers. The numbers are 230 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: available online, guys, So this ain't making it up. When 231 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: you're giving organizations like that one hundred and fifty thousand 232 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: dollars and telling them we'll make it, do what to do, 233 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 1: that's a problem. No war is won by just the 234 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: air force. I'm an Air Force veteran. You need the 235 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: air force. Yes, you need the big entertainers, you need 236 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,840 Speaker 1: the media, you need the podcast that's the air. But 237 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: you also need the ground, you need marines, and you 238 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 1: need the army. And they bottom line, took black voters 239 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:47,960 Speaker 1: for granted, like we've been talking about for years. They figure, well, 240 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: you know she's black, so that'll be fine. They literally 241 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,679 Speaker 1: shit it on organizations. One hundred year organizations got seventy 242 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars, one hundred thousand dollars. One hundred black men. 243 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 1: I believe they got like seventy five thousand, hundred thousand dollars. 244 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: So what is that saying on how you're trying to organiz, 245 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: you know, with black men. So that's an issue when 246 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: we talk about this billion dollar bag, and not just 247 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: because of now envy, but also the infrastructure that we're 248 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: trying to build. So midterms in March, and I'm independent, 249 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,240 Speaker 1: so I'm just giving you know what it looks like 250 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: to build this house. You need this money flowing year round. 251 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: They're trying to build now. So your opponent is over 252 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: building a house with adding on, swimming pools, adding on garages, 253 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 1: adding on all this, and then they come give the 254 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 1: money two three weeks before the election is over. Before 255 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 1: the election, black organizations did not get money until three 256 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 1: weeks before. Literally they told the churches they yeah, nothing 257 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: they can do with it, and then saying we're here, 258 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: go tw hundred thousand dollars, make a doe to do. 259 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 1: And what I found this time is the gatekeepers got 260 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 1: gate kept because the streets was never getting the money. 261 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 1: So when they were calling me dropping dives, hotels and 262 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: we only got these only at that last time we 263 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: got a lot of money, I said, I'm here to 264 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 1: tell the streets and never got any of it. But 265 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,439 Speaker 1: now as the gatekeepers got gate kept for the first time, 266 00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: Derrick Johnson literally calling out the campaign in an article saying, 267 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 1: you guys are not spending money with black media. You're 268 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: not spent money on the ground. We are literally starving. 269 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 1: Most of these organizations had to use this money on 270 00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: their own and that makes a difference when you're talking 271 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: about getting out the vote. 272 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 3: Trump didn't use his money as much for entertainers. 273 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 5: Didn't. 274 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,559 Speaker 1: No, he didn't at all. Well, he doesn't get a 275 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: lot of earned media get a lot of earned Also, 276 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 1: Trump has been organizing and he's never stopped for ten years, 277 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: non stop. When you have a rally every month, when 278 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 1: you're engaging people every month, when he's using social media, 279 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: when he's using truth, he's okay, Twitter, you don't want 280 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: to work with me, cool, I I'll just go start 281 00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:33,600 Speaker 1: my own. He has a non stop organizing machine that 282 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: democrats just don't do. They don't develop those relationships. They 283 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: come in, Okay, we got six months, let's make it. 284 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: Do what to do. So this is the result. And 285 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: so people can say, well, that's just ten percent, that's 286 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 1: just one percent. But when you add up those numbers 287 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: across the board, it makes a difference. And I also 288 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: want to say this, Black Conservatives, I want us to 289 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: have more leverage. I also want us to have more 290 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 1: positioning within the Republican Party. If you're going to move 291 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 1: over to the Publican side, where's our leadership? 292 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 2: You know when it comes to that she run again? 293 00:11:58,600 --> 00:11:59,840 Speaker 2: Can Kamala Harris run again? 294 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 5: Let's get through our points. 295 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 6: Wait before you're going to move on to the next thing, 296 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 6: I have a question because it's about what you're talking about. 297 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 6: So you saw Candis Owens going back and forth Miss 298 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 6: Tina knows about Beyonce and Beyonce being involved in in 299 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 6: the rally in Houston to the point that Candas was making. 300 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 7: It's kind of what you're saying. 301 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 6: Do you think that how do you utilize a major 302 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 6: celebrity like a Beyonce because she's not going to be 303 00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 6: on the ground, And what should Kamala Harris's campaign have 304 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 6: done better utilizing a big celebrity of that nature because 305 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:33,239 Speaker 6: she's getting dragged for it because they're saying it looks unauthentic, 306 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 6: and Canda's owns is saying it looks unauthentic and this 307 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 6: is why you didn't win. 308 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 7: But Beyonce is not going to be outside like you 309 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 7: get what I'm. 310 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:43,959 Speaker 5: Saying, Like they filled the stadium in Houston to Beyonce. 311 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to feel the stadium. And I'm an 312 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: organizer first before I'm a pundits. So when we use 313 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 1: people like that to tell who never knocked on the doors, 314 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: I kind of discredit what they're saying. She has to 315 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: find talking points to talk about her opponent Perio point blank. 316 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: When it comes to Canis owns, I use Killing Mike 317 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,200 Speaker 1: as an example. You know our brother Killer Mike. He's 318 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: an organizer first, He's always been an organizer before he 319 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,720 Speaker 1: was a rapper before Daniels say, he's an organizer. So 320 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: when you go to Atlanta, Georgia, and you don't call 321 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 1: Killer Mike to take you to the same spots that 322 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: they took, the same Chick fil A that they took 323 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: Trump to, the same the West side of Atlanta had 324 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 1: zero signs on the ground when you don't utilize a 325 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: killer Mike. They got barbershops all throughout Atlanta, and he's 326 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 1: literally made himself available. 327 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 4: You could have been sitting in Bank HC Food right 328 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 4: by the way. And to Ted's point, Killer Mike did 329 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 4: make himself available. 330 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 1: He made himself fact. This is a fact. And you 331 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: shit on that and you think that's not important. When 332 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: an organizer who literally has him and Tip has literally 333 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: put mayors in office, that's telling me how you feel 334 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: about your black outreach. Oh, they'll just do it because 335 00:13:45,720 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 1: she's black. Well, I got news for you. The black 336 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: vote went the opposite direction. It went the opposite direction 337 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: because people are getting tired of being taken advantage of. 338 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,640 Speaker 1: They're being tired of not having this conversation year around Charlemagne. 339 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: And so when you guys did I'm just gonna go 340 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: ahead and say it. When you did the thing in Michigan, Yeah, 341 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: Zeke new Ara of Detroit sitting right there in the things, 342 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 1: I asked them, hey, campaign ever reached out to you 343 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 1: mean laughing and he said no, he said none to me. 344 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 1: You can't organize in Detroit and not think you need 345 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: to talk to a Zeke or a new Ara of Detroit. 346 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: That man not only is organize in Detroit, all over 347 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: the country. So when you think that people are just 348 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: going to do it just because thirty three percent of 349 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 1: Detroit is living below the poverty line, So what is 350 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 1: that telling you. You had Rashida Talib who organized the 351 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: arib American community that literally voted for Trump. Literally dearborn 352 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: voted for Trump. And then you had the Black vote 353 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,480 Speaker 1: that was depressed, meaning just not even interested, saying fuck it, 354 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: you know the government, it's hurting my pocket. 355 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 5: Voted for Trump. 356 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: Dear born. Oh well, you know they had the one 357 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 1: hundred thousand. They had one hundred thousand people go to 358 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: the point, this ain't being talked to about enough. One 359 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: hundred thousand people went to the polls to say we 360 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 1: are uncommitted. Remember she just sleep literally did a video 361 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 1: and said, Joe Biden, we ain't fucking with you until 362 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 1: there's a ceasefire. We ain't fucking with you. That was 363 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: doing the primary. Your number one opponent was a Democrat 364 00:15:06,360 --> 00:15:11,359 Speaker 1: elected official in Michigan that was literally basically telling voters 365 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: sort to sit out and had them go to the 366 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: polls to vote I am uncommitted. So that same Dearborn, 367 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 1: which she represents. She represents Detroit as well. Dearborn voted 368 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: for Trump. You look at that, You look at the 369 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: two three percent of of the black votes. They couldn't 370 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,480 Speaker 1: get out of Detroit. So now you're talking about how 371 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 1: you can win Michigan. Those are the things you know 372 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: that people are not looking at. And Michigan had a 373 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: lot of leverage, but he won all swing states, you know, 374 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 1: so it wasn't just Michigan. But that's a real problem. 375 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: You got black people starving in Detroit. You got Dearborn 376 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: asking for a ceasefire. You got the labor union and 377 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 1: this is how we won Michigan with Bernie Sanders. You 378 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 1: got the labor union. They won't strike all last year 379 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 1: the year before that, so those people were pissed. You 380 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 1: have the college students who were also pushing you know, 381 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: anti war and removed college debt was an issue. So 382 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 1: those four or five constituents in Michigan made the difference 383 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: on why you lost. So it was a number of things, 384 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 1: you know. It's not just one thing over the other. 385 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 1: It's a number of things. 386 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 3: I know. 387 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: The podcast was important. It is important to have podcasts. 388 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: It is important to be able to reach thirty million 389 00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 1: people at one time. But if you're doing that and 390 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: you're telling organizations like Until Freedom are organization similar that 391 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 1: here go one hundred thousand and you need to go 392 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: to seven states and make it work. When you have 393 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 1: the Church of God in Christ. Think they got one thousand, 394 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 1: two hundred thousand and said, hey, go go make a 395 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 1: do what to do? It was impossible? 396 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 4: You know what I'd like to see. I agree, you know, 397 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 4: I think you got to hit them both right. You 398 00:16:29,560 --> 00:16:30,920 Speaker 4: got to have a ground game, man, you got to 399 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 4: have a mean digital game. I would like to see 400 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,280 Speaker 4: some of the grassroots activists on the ground. I would 401 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 4: like to see them start adapting the social media as well, 402 00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 4: because I feel like those organizations needed. 403 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure, the partnership. It's not just you know 404 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: one thing. I think a report today said one in 405 00:16:47,800 --> 00:16:50,760 Speaker 1: every three people get their news from social media. I 406 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: think it's actually higher than that. So we're not partnering 407 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 1: in social media and having that ground game to be 408 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: you know, to double it up. It's dead in the water, 409 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: but you still have to have people knocking on those doors. 410 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 1: And bottom line, they should have just bought boats. At 411 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: this point when you got one hundred days. Some of 412 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: these nonprofits that are out here, somebody in Detroit, you 413 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: could have funded them. You could have the same way 414 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: Trump had Kwame Kapatrick, you know, the same way they 415 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: had Harry O. People, Oh what Harry Old doing? That 416 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: make a difference. So people's looking for partons in clemencies 417 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,399 Speaker 1: and all that Democrats have pardoned far more than Republicans have. 418 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:24,560 Speaker 1: I asked Governor Westmore, why are you not talking about 419 00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 1: I think it was what close to two hundred thousand 420 00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: people that he partnered for marijuana. Why are y'all not 421 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:31,720 Speaker 1: talking about that? Why is that not something y'all talking about? 422 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 1: So when Trump brings a trick trick from Detroit and 423 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 1: people don't shave room, Who's trick trick? Oh? Nowhere is Detroit? 424 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:39,640 Speaker 1: No damn well, who trick trick is? So when people 425 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 1: see that, they're like, well, shit, I don't know what 426 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: to believe that one two percent of falling off makes 427 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: a difference. Trump capitalized on the lost man, something I've 428 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,800 Speaker 1: been talking about for fifteen years straight. The hood Whish 429 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: were the lost man. Men who felt like they were 430 00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,359 Speaker 1: not being heard, People who felt like they were not 431 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 1: being understood. Again, I'm talking to civic about black people. 432 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm not talking about this work and because that translates 433 00:18:01,240 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: to white working class, I'm talking about black people who 434 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: felt like they were not being heard, were not being understood, 435 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,600 Speaker 1: and Trump capitalized on that. People asked, oh, why did 436 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: he use Ambrose? Well, guess what she's from where? 437 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 3: Right? 438 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 1: That's a swing state, so you don't have to like 439 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: his shave room. But that was very strategic. It made 440 00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: sense to have ice word vessel, you know, in Detroit, 441 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: even though in the shave room, who is he? I 442 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: don't know? He is Detroit. That one of two percent 443 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 1: made a difference. Why didn't you reach out the Kaiomei 444 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: Campatrick because he a fela? Is that why you don't 445 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 1: think it was important to at least, if nothing else, 446 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: minimize your enemy. There's two things you do in the campaign. 447 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 1: Minimize your enemy, maximize your friends. You didn't even reach 448 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,080 Speaker 1: out to that man for a conversation. Whether you like 449 00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: what he did in Detroit or not, the man still 450 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: was elected, His mama was elected. He comes from a 451 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 1: very long lineage you know of folks in Detroit, and 452 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: I think that's even it's worth having the conversation. So 453 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: Trump was able to appear as if he was one 454 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,160 Speaker 1: of them, which he was not. By the way, He's 455 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 1: a white man who obviously if black man could have 456 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 1: never gotten away with he got with the fellas, But 457 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: he was able to appear as if he was. He 458 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,040 Speaker 1: was able to appear that connection. Why didn't they talk 459 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: about what Governor Newsom did in California removing the gang enhancement. 460 00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:08,640 Speaker 1: Removing the gang has you got homies who are literally 461 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: getting on the yard for the very first time. If 462 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 1: you do the crime, do the time, no problem with that. 463 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: But in California, most people are affiliated with the gang 464 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 1: just by based on where you live. So Governor Newsom 465 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 1: has passed great legislation that has allowed people to come home, 466 00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: that has allowed people to actually get on the yard 467 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: for the very first time. I got ten thousand homies 468 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: right now in LA that were organized for the next 469 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 1: governor just based off that one thing. They didn't talk 470 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: about those things v because they sit in this elitist positioning, 471 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 1: you know, of let's just not talk about that, you know, 472 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 1: let's just let's go high and the go low. And 473 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: Trump was able to capitalize on that. That made a differen 474 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: when you're talking about a ten percent Yeah, I. 475 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 4: Think I think it's hard for them to capitalize on 476 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 4: something like the new someome thing because it is something 477 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 4: that's regulated to California. Like, the first step back was 478 00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 4: a federal a federal law that people act that. He 479 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 4: did a phenomenal job of showing, look, I bought this 480 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 4: person home, and I bought that person home, and like 481 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 4: there was other people on social media that would talk about, ma'am, 482 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 4: my people just came home because of. 483 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 5: The first step back. 484 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 4: I actually think the first step back people don't really 485 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 4: credit that enough. They want to talk about stimulus checks 486 00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 4: and PPP loans. 487 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 5: But when you can. 488 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:11,919 Speaker 4: Actually see one of your homies come home from prison, 489 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 4: that's a big deal. 490 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, and we saw what happen in real time. But 491 00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: I just wanted to push you back living on how 492 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: you capitalize against that, how you can capitalize when you 493 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: look at what Governor Moore was able to do the 494 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 1: federal when they took the federal for the marijuana. 495 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, simple possession marijuana. 496 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: You show the connection. So yes, that was federal right, 497 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: but Governor Moore was able to actually utilize that without 498 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: that federal partnership it wouldn't have happened. So it does 499 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: trickle down, but the Democrats never connect the dots to 500 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: show you this is how it actually works. Federal was 501 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: able to help the state. State was able to have 502 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 1: the local and so on and so forth. So there's 503 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 1: ways to do it. They just don't do it, Charlemagne, 504 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,679 Speaker 1: because they feel as if, you know, let's focus on 505 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 1: these imaginary voters. Let's spend all this money on white women. 506 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: Let's spend all this money on Yeah. So Trump was 507 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: able to capitalize on that. Just another Remember this is 508 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,240 Speaker 1: about margins in the swing state. So when you got 509 00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 1: one or two percent that's saying I'm sitting on the couch, 510 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: or one or two percent of saying I'm going in 511 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: a different direction, it makes a difference. 512 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, especially when you look at the election. 513 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 4: I mean, I think what Trump had seventy six point 514 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 4: one million votes, Harris had seventy four and it's just 515 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 4: all those margins she lost by the margins in a 516 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 4: lot of those swingstat So. 517 00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:22,359 Speaker 6: What you think about Trump's cabinet, and I guess his 518 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,240 Speaker 6: choices for his cabinet right now, because I mean, these 519 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 6: are the people that are be gonna have to be. 520 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think nothing. I think Republicans ran Democrats 521 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: ran is gonna be a dictator. Guess what they want? 522 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 1: A dictator. We've been saying this forever. We've been talking 523 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: about this day of bipartisanship, and let's just get it 524 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: through Congress, we said, Charlotmane. You know I said it 525 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:45,440 Speaker 1: a many times, like with the George Floyda Act reducing 526 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: college debt, do an executive order. Everybody said, you can't 527 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: do a executi order. You gotta go through Congress. Republicans 528 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: are gonna change it back. If you get in, they're 529 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,880 Speaker 1: gonna change it back. Guess what Republicans don't give them 530 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 1: about changing the back? They changed back, rovers what about 531 00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 1: changing back a whole bunch of shit Obamacare and everything else. 532 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: Democrats refuse use to work as a dictator. They want 533 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: a dictator. Everybody's saying, oh man, he's gonna be a dictator, right, 534 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: that's why they want. Oh yes, he's gonna take migrants out. Yes, 535 00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:10,919 Speaker 1: that's what they wanted. People need to stop saying that 536 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 1: online is driving me crazy. Oh latinos, oh man, oh man, 537 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: y'all about to see they want the immigrants people who 538 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: are legal, who will come over to the country legal. 539 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: They are literally telling you, yes, we do. We don't 540 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:25,680 Speaker 1: support illegal immigration. So people they're thinking, they saying something 541 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: on social media, y'all gonna see. No, they want a dictator. 542 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 1: The Democrats ran on democracy, they ran on dictators. Shall 543 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: be a dictator day one. That's exactly what they want. 544 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 1: A dictator. Somebody's gonna push the line. Somebody an't gonna 545 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: get damn back what Congress is talking about. Somebody just 546 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: say I don't care what the rules are. I'm gonna 547 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 1: do what I want to do. They want a gangster period. 548 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, I agree with that. 549 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 4: I wouldn't say dictator, but they want somebody that don't 550 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 4: give a fuck. 551 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:49,119 Speaker 1: And it's going to He said he was gonna be 552 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 1: a dictator on day He said that. 553 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 5: On day one. 554 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 4: But I think what people mean when they say they 555 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 4: just want somebody that's gonna say, you know what, as 556 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 4: long as things are getting done for the people, I 557 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 4: don't care how it gets done. Like John Stewart did 558 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 4: a great, agree great monologue last night, and he was 559 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 4: just like Democrats always follow the norms and Republicans don't 560 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 4: follow the norms. They gonna find those loopholes to break. 561 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: Which is kind of like dictatorship. Though he said he 562 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:14,160 Speaker 1: gonna do what he want to do. That's what, damn 563 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: what politically, you ain't gonna play press. So I mean 564 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: that's saying I'm gonna do this, and if you don't 565 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 1: do it, it's gonna be hell to pay. If you 566 00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: don't do it, you know, I'm gonna make sure you 567 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: don't win. If you don't do it, I'm gonna call 568 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:26,919 Speaker 1: you out. We talked about this with Joe Manchin. They 569 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 1: let they set up now, Joe Managine, see this to 570 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: a Republican. We've been talking about this. This has been 571 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 1: going on for the last fifteen years. This loss was 572 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: not just what happened in the last one hundred days. 573 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: This has been at least from my experience two thousand 574 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 1: and seven. I can name year over year over year 575 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 1: on what's what happened, on how we got it. And 576 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:43,600 Speaker 1: then another thing I want to bring up on this 577 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 1: messaging abortion. Democrats ran on reproductive rights and democracy fail 578 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 1: right out the gate. You had states like Arizona and 579 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: the Bottle that had abortion on the ballot. So Democrats' 580 00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: mindset is, let's put abortion on the ballot and that's 581 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,440 Speaker 1: gonna bring you know, so people know get out to vote. 582 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: Gotv that's how do you get out the vote? Oh, 583 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 1: they're going to go to the polls now that abortion 584 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 1: is on the ballot. Well, which you did, meet ballhead. 585 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: You actually allowed Republican women who were pro choice to 586 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 1: actually vote for abortion and still vote for Trump. There's 587 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 1: no rule that says if you support pro choice that 588 00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: you won't vote for Trump. So Republican women in Nevada 589 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: and Arizona literally have the opportunity to bring abortion back 590 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: and still vote for Trump. So Democrats shot themselves even 591 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 1: in the foot if you were expecting women to go 592 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 1: vote for reproductive rights because you gave them an out, 593 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 1: and then that was a mistake out the gate. Look 594 00:24:37,600 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: at Michigan, Michigan. You can get an abortion in Michigan, 595 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 1: So that don't land anywhere. I know people want this idea, 596 00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:44,880 Speaker 1: especially black voters. Could we like to take care of everybody? 597 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 1: And oh what about them in Texas? But the average 598 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 1: person is voting their personal interest, that's it. And if 599 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: I can get an abortion in Michigan, what matters to 600 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: me if you get it in Arizona or Nevada or 601 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: whatever it was. So when you're running on reproductive rights, 602 00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:01,159 Speaker 1: which I think was a mistake, and just the marracy 603 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 1: people didn't give a damn about democracy well talking about 604 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:04,960 Speaker 1: it when I was sitting there in twenty eighteen, those 605 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 1: first question you asked me out the gate, what do 606 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: people think about to say, they don't give it down 607 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: his white fo's white foe, don't give it about no insurrection. 608 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: They'll do it again. This is what's been happening in 609 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: this country four hundred years. So the messaging was wrong 610 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: at the gate. We talked about that, not running on 611 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 1: the economy, not running But I still think though even 612 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:22,400 Speaker 1: if she should have ran on all of those things, 613 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 1: they still gonna vote for. They still would have rather 614 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:28,120 Speaker 1: voted for Joe Biden. Have dead weekend at Bernie's. You know, 615 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: they didn't even win Scranton. They didn't win Scranton. Joe 616 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: would at least won Scranton. Harris lost Scringt. 617 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 5: I think I think Joe would have got like sixty 618 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 5: five million. 619 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 6: Book said, Okay, so, if if what you're saying is true, 620 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 6: what was all because I felt how you how you 621 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 6: feel now? It is how I felt in the beginning, 622 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 6: and then when I saw the excitement and the money 623 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 6: moving and all of. 624 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: That, got a chance. 625 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, what was all of that then? 626 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,240 Speaker 1: I didn't think it was gonna win. 627 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 5: But doing anything, we're not giving you no more money. 628 00:25:58,720 --> 00:25:59,760 Speaker 3: Yo'll have no choice, That's right. 629 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, So let's be clear they did not have a 630 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,680 Speaker 1: choice because George, Yeah, they said they didn't have no choice. 631 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:07,120 Speaker 1: So two things to be true. At the same time, 632 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: they had to put Harris in no doubt about that. 633 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 1: I'm not disagreeing with that, but I still don't think 634 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: they would have voted us. They just wouldn't. They're just 635 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: not going to give something that they didn't get. First. 636 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 1: Did she do the best that she could? Yes? Did 637 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: she do everything they told her to do? Yes? Did 638 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 1: she have one hundred days to do it? Yes? And 639 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 1: this is not about shiitting on her. This is about 640 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:24,920 Speaker 1: setting up a woman to fail in a hundred days 641 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,440 Speaker 1: to do the damn near impossible. I think Joe Biden 642 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: should have took that l He's the one that said, 643 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:32,480 Speaker 1: you know, he was gonna run. He's the one that 644 00:26:32,560 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 1: set up there the entire time. They didn't build the bitch. 645 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: Let him take the L. Why now are you putting 646 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 1: it on Yeah, I thought it was like the friendly. 647 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, can again? Would you advise her to run again? 648 00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: Because again we gotta stop with that. I don't know 649 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: what this subsession we got with federal I'm gonna keep 650 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 1: push that. Let them have it. Let's talk about especially 651 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:05,280 Speaker 1: Republicans now saying give it to the state if you 652 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: really want to make real change in your community. I 653 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: know it's not as sexy. I know it's not as exciting, 654 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: but it really is at the state level. It really 655 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: is at the local level. If you believe in you 656 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,919 Speaker 1: want to fund the public schools, you can do at 657 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:18,440 Speaker 1: a local level. You say, you know what I want, 658 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 1: charter schools. I want to be able to educate our 659 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:21,800 Speaker 1: own You can do that at the local level. Why 660 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,680 Speaker 1: are we so infatuated with this White House. I don't 661 00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: get it. Why not be an Atlanta council with sixteen 662 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 1: other people in Orlando with six other people to be 663 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: able to say, I'm gonna write a check to the 664 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 1: Black Business Investment Fund, you know, to be able to say, hey, 665 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 1: here's some money to go start a business. You can 666 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 1: pass reparations at the local level. So I don't understand 667 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: this obsession that we have with this federal thing. And 668 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest with you, Lauren, Black women, a 669 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: lot of times we get caught up and it's wanting 670 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: to be validated so damn bad. So when the excitement 671 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: was there, when everybody's like, oh man, we can do this, 672 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: we can do this. Black girl, manage we do this, 673 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 1: we can do this, do this validation of needing to 674 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: be affirmed, need to say you are qualified enough, you 675 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:01,239 Speaker 1: are good enough. A lot of that played into it. 676 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:03,199 Speaker 1: A lot of that played into it. But let's not 677 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: forget three thousand black women did a petition and said, 678 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, keep your ass in. They ignored that and 679 00:28:10,280 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: went with the money. To Charlet Magne's point, they didn't 680 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: have a choice. 681 00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 5: I agree with you, especially about the state thing. You know, 682 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 5: there's something else. 683 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 4: Trump said that man landed, and I was I'm still 684 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 4: trying to figure out how did he land is because 685 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 4: it's so hard to get people to focus on this. 686 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 3: The abortion thing. 687 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 4: Right, He told them, I wanted to be in the 688 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 4: hands of the state. So whenever you would have conversations 689 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 4: with people about, you know, abortions on the ballot, they'd 690 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:32,080 Speaker 4: be like, no, Trump just wants it to be in 691 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 4: the hands of the state. I've never seen a politician 692 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 4: convinced people on a national level it's going to be 693 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 4: local and that's fine, and they buy into it. 694 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 1: Well, Trump can get anybody to buy in anything he say. 695 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,959 Speaker 1: I mean, he's a total man. Press have never been 696 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,600 Speaker 1: equipped to run against Trump. Let's just name it, you know, 697 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: let's just say they've never been equipped to run against them. 698 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: He's too petty, he goes too low, he don't give 699 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 1: a damn what y'all talking about. Entertainer first, and so 700 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: they've never been equipped to go against this man. Never. 701 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: But to your point, Charlemagne is for those that understand 702 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 1: the states rights. And when you go back to Reagan, 703 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 1: the reason why black people are again said, is because 704 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: what it does is it disenfranchisse, disenfranchisise, it disenfranchise us. 705 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 1: Even more so if you're saying, Okay, in Oklahoma, you 706 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: can't get access to health care, but you can get 707 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: access to healthcare in California. Very liberal. These are folks 708 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: that can't just pick up, you know, and go to 709 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: California to get what they need, don't have the money. 710 00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: So it affects poor people in a very bad way. 711 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 1: The states rights. But conservatives they like states, give it 712 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: to the states their mindset. If you don't like it, 713 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: move somewhere else. But none of us had, not enough 714 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 1: of us have the resources to just move, you know, 715 00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: to somewhere else, to just move where things you know 716 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 1: may be favorable to you. So as black voters were 717 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: always trying to carry the lease of these and everybody 718 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: else and think about everybody else. But the reality is, Charlemagne, 719 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: people are only looking at what's in front of their doorstep. 720 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,240 Speaker 1: And if I can do X y Z in Michigan, 721 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:58,840 Speaker 1: if I can have a successful business with zero regulations 722 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: in Atlanta when COVID it happened, when Governor Camp, you 723 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,120 Speaker 1: know a lot of we don't like Governor Camp, but Atlanta, 724 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: Atlanta will still thriving. Black business was still thriving. Georgia 725 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 1: was still thriving. So when people look outside their door, 726 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: when remember when the Santas reduced the gas, when they 727 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: was talking about you can't do nothing about the gas 728 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 1: when gas was so high, he said, oh no, I 729 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 1: can do something about it. This is why I talking 730 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: about state. So when people remember that, even though there's 731 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: more liberal, more Democrat voters in Florida, people remember what 732 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: affected their pocket and that Republican governor made a difference. 733 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: Kemp and Georgia made a difference was passing out Kemp cards. 734 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:31,120 Speaker 1: He did the same thing Trump did when he signed 735 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: his name. He gave them Kemp cards. People remember that. 736 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 1: So you can have a state with a republic Democrat 737 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,479 Speaker 1: governor like North Carolina, but they still went with Trump 738 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 1: because they're looking at how does it trickle down. You 739 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,760 Speaker 1: can have a state that flipped and went blue, but 740 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: have a governor camp who's a Republican. People like their governors. 741 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 1: People don't have to like Texas. You don't have to 742 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 1: like Texas in New York, but your money gonna go 743 00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: far in Texas. As any felon in Texas they working 744 00:30:58,720 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: in oil fields eighteen dollars now twenty five dollars an hour, 745 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 1: thirty dollars an hour. That makes a difference. So even 746 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: if they don't like Republicans, even they don't like Trump, 747 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: when you're looking at how that affects your money daily, 748 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: it makes a difference. And that's where they lost as 749 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 1: far as really trying to understand, you know, the economic conversation, 750 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 1: especially with black people. 751 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 5: What else we got on the list, because I know 752 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 5: you got some money, now. 753 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 1: I got a lot on the list. I kind of 754 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: want to just deal with Michigan quickly because I do 755 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 1: have some concern with that. I mentioned Rashida Tsali, and 756 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 1: I'm not mad about you know how she was able 757 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 1: to organize her voters, but I do have some concern 758 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: for Detroit. I do feel as if Detroit does not 759 00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: have the voice that they should have. That Rashida's leid 760 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: was able and she should I think she she went 761 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: hard in the paint for she's a Palestinian woman. I 762 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,959 Speaker 1: expect her to. I have no issue with that, but 763 00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 1: I do feel like Detroit kind of got crashed out 764 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 1: a little bit that there's not representation. Detroit is one 765 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 1: of the blackest cities in the country, and so when 766 00:31:57,920 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: you had a few enough to say, you know what, 767 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: but I just don't want to be a part of 768 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: the process anymore. And that entire conversation was on Gaza, 769 00:32:04,560 --> 00:32:06,400 Speaker 1: and I know there's a talking point of progressive is 770 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: going to come in and tell you that the polls 771 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: say that black people are concerned about Godza. Yes we are, 772 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 1: we do have We are very compassionate. But if you 773 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: ask the average black person, Black American on what they're 774 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: most concerned about, they're talking about again their own front door. 775 00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 1: They're more concerned about what's happening here over what's happening 776 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: in geopolitics right. So to be able to be to 777 00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: be a single issue vote, I don't have no problem 778 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:31,360 Speaker 1: with Rashida to lead, none at all. But when you 779 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 1: had three black women who ran Againstrashida's leave in twenty 780 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 1: twenty two, all three of them combined still didn't have 781 00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: even half of rashida to leave passed. So she has 782 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: the votes, she has the power, but I feel Detroit 783 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 1: is not getting there, just doing at least being a 784 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 1: part of the conversation. And I hope that changes. 785 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:48,200 Speaker 3: What she got on that list. 786 00:32:48,280 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: I think that said list, You'll got something else with 787 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: that to go over. 788 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 5: You know, I wanted to ask you about Hakim Jeffreys. 789 00:32:53,360 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 4: Hakim Jeffrey said this week that he sees he says 790 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 4: Democrats are set up for a major comeback. 791 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: You think that's possible, but what's the comeback? Me let 792 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 1: me know you come back. What's the comebacks? 793 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 6: I've never seen that that mixtape, but they still do 794 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:09,560 Speaker 6: it anyway, and then they don't could I. 795 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: Don't think so, I don't think, first of all, and 796 00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 1: I forgot. I want to name a couple of names 797 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: because a lot of people ain't name the names. I 798 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: do encourage people to go look at that list. There 799 00:33:17,800 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 1: are two names that kept popping up over and over. 800 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: Quentin No dispect. I've never met him, you know, but 801 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,840 Speaker 1: he was in charge of the bag. And also Cedric Richmond. 802 00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 1: Now you remember when Sedria Richmond came on the Breakast 803 00:33:26,560 --> 00:33:28,320 Speaker 1: Club and said hold him acountable. Remember that a couple 804 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: of years. 805 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 4: I've been I don't even listen to when Cedric made 806 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 4: that statement on Breakfast Club and said, hold him accountable 807 00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 4: if anything doesn't go to the way it's supposed to 808 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:38,200 Speaker 4: go into buy administgration. 809 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 5: And then he just disappeared. He left his position. We 810 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 5: didn't even know he left his position. I don't I 811 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 5: ain't pay static no attention. 812 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: Well he literally told grass Foot Organization, y'all just want 813 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 1: the money.

I'm 816 00:33:54,560 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 1: just telling you what the people said. 817 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 5: Ain't get none of the million. 818 00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:59,480 Speaker 1: I don't want that million. 819 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,480 Speaker 6: But they told black people that money don't like like 820 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 6: you need money for things like why is that such 821 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,479 Speaker 6: a like a falsehood or something like, well, no, they. 822 00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: Know they got it and just didn't come.

They do it every year. 828 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:27,960 Speaker 1: They've been doing this like this. They do it every year. 829 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: And it's again, it's not just on the entertainers, these 830 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 1: white liberal consultants who run this party. Because they do. 831 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:35,759 Speaker 1: And then they tell the black folks in charge, the 832 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: gatekeepers of the gatekeepers to tell them, okay, give them 833 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: one hundred thousand, give them one hundred and fifty given 834 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: to it.

That's what they did with 859 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: the Latino community. They put in the mid terms. They 860 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,719 Speaker 1: put thirty different community centers in Florida wasn't just about 861 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,239 Speaker 1: vote and they was coming in trying to figure out 862 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,239 Speaker 1: what they could get health care, trying to figure out 863 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 1: what resources they could get, trying to figure it. You 864 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 1: literally took care of the community. That's where that money 865 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 1: is supposed to go and be. It's not just for advertising. 866 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,280 Speaker 1: Advertised is important, but it's more than that. You literally 867 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: are supposed to buy votes, guys, that's how it works 868 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 1: by votes.

Now people can feel it and say okay, 876 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,000 Speaker 1: and then that organization has a responsibility to say this 877 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: came from the Harris campaign, this came from X y Z. 878 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: This is how we got what we got. And then 879 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 1: now people can say okay, I feel it. Like with 880 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 1: the first step back, they feel it, they can see it, 881 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 1: they can touch it, and republics that have just did 882 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:42,040 Speaker 1: a better job with that. It's not that Democrats don't 883 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 1: have the receipts, they just don't talk about the receipts. 884 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:47,359 Speaker 1: Their messaging has always been poor and raggedy as hell, 885 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: which is why I left in twenty ten. So it's 886 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 1: not that they don't have the receipts, they just don't 887 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:53,359 Speaker 1: talk about They don't feel they have to.

The they really do believe that they have 937 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,200 Speaker 1: all of the answers, like literally all of that. 938 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,839 Speaker 4: It was so wrong about everything, Like when they had 939 00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 4: that whole oh black men aren't going to show up 940 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,200 Speaker 4: and vote for the vice president, and you know President 941 00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:48,319 Speaker 4: Obama was out there waving his finger at us. It's like, no, 942 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 4: y'all should be focusing on these white women, right right, 943 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 4: Like those are the ones that haven't shown up the 944 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 4: last couple of elections. 945 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:54,640 Speaker 5: The Latino men. 946 00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 4: I didn't hear them putting the real emphasis on that either. 947 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,040 Speaker 4: But the Latino people didn't show up for them. So 948 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 4: it's just like I I just saw them make mistake 949 00:39:01,040 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 4: after mistake. And another thing I would say is you 950 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 4: had a presidential campaign that had trouble connected with the 951 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 4: working class, right because they had a bunch of consultants 952 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 4: who got backgrounds with these giant companies. Do you think 953 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,880 Speaker 4: that they should just bring people on these campaigns that 954 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,200 Speaker 4: are literally from the grassroots And to me, those were 955 00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 4: the best ideas coming. 956 00:39:17,160 --> 00:39:19,920 Speaker 1: From Yeah, okay, that's exactly what the best idea is 957 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 1: coming to another point. I'm glad you' about that us. 958 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:26,080 Speaker 1: Charlotte Mane. Also a lot of friends groups, you know, 959 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 1: people that were giving them hell online that they ignore that. 960 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,799 Speaker 1: They say, oh, that's just you know, Oh that's just 961 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,240 Speaker 1: them talking. Oh that's just them talking. That's right, again, 962 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 1: minimizing your enemy. So there were groups online that are 963 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 1: literally talking to fifty thousand, one hundred thousand people every week. 964 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: You don't have to think that's important. But when you 965 00:39:43,040 --> 00:39:47,520 Speaker 1: got groups online saying reparations are not sit on the couch, 966 00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:50,520 Speaker 1: don't do this, don't do that, and you're ignoring that 967 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: group as a as a real constituency, and you're saying, oh, 968 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:56,879 Speaker 1: don't worry about it. They just online well over time, 969 00:39:56,920 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 1: because again a lot of these people and they rock 970 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,879 Speaker 1: with me talking about this year round.

Don't wait 993 00:40:56,719 --> 00:40:58,839 Speaker 4: until the year of the election to start reaching out 994 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:00,600 Speaker 4: to these different people could do it looks fake, it 995 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 4: looks it looks like it's not authentic, looks like you 996 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:05,040 Speaker 4: don't really care. Start making those connections now. 997 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:05,879 Speaker 3: But let me ask a question. 998 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,920 Speaker 2: Do you think it should be that like Charlomage said, 999 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:09,399 Speaker 2: or do you think we should take a page out 1000 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,879 Speaker 2: of Canada's book and out of Francis book where it's 1001 00:41:11,920 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 2: like there's a cap, it's a specific time limit, you 1002 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 2: know what I mean, because people get fatigued and after 1003 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 2: a while people like f all this issue. I mean, 1004 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:20,160 Speaker 2: do you feel like we should go more into that 1005 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 2: because now it's almost like big bake, take a little. 1006 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 3: Bait, you know. 1007 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 4: I mean as far as campaign campaign and concerned, oh 1008 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 4: should be shorter campaign. 1009 00:41:26,719 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 2: Short campaign Canada have a specific time limit, whether it's 1010 00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:31,399 Speaker 2: three months or a certain amount of money that has to. 1011 00:41:31,480 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it has changed. It used to be six months, 1012 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,959 Speaker 1: one year, two years. Congress has to run every two years. 1013 00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:38,759 Speaker 1: The minute they getting off is their campaign and then 1014 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,279 Speaker 1: trying to raise money. So no, we are in a 1015 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,800 Speaker 1: year around. Donald Trump has changed this and will forever 1016 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 1: be changed. This is a year around effort, year round resources, 1017 00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 1: year around. That's why I do my training and push 1018 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 1: the line, nonpartisan training, year around, getting people in position. 1019 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:55,879 Speaker 1: That's a project. Twenty twenty five is all about. People 1020 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 1: can think it's fake or not fake, but that's all 1021 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 1: about putting people in position, putting people at the commission level, 1022 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,759 Speaker 1: and putting people at the state level, putting people at 1023 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: the state If they're not investing year around, if you're 1024 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: if you're gonna bring plies into the game, then plies 1025 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 1: partner with somebody like myself or somebody like Uti Free, 1026 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 1: somebody else to help bring this noise you're around. Because 1027 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: what happens is the day at the election, you go, 1028 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:17,800 Speaker 1: you go back to talking about what you're talking about before, 1029 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,239 Speaker 1: and now you got to start the machine all over again. 1030 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 5: I ain't said nothing from the car since the election 1031 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 5: about all kind of stuff. 1032 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:29,200 Speaker 6: Well, he did say he had woke up. Remember he 1033 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,000 Speaker 6: said he missed the election night, but he woke up 1034 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:31,880 Speaker 6: and so he did say that. 1035 00:42:32,640 --> 00:42:35,920 Speaker 4: Then I ain't seen him talking about Starbucks and women feet. 1036 00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:37,320 Speaker 4: I ain't seen him talking about. 1037 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: It, right, And that's the man I love. I ran 1038 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,319 Speaker 1: for office in twenty eleven in Orlando. The first person 1039 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:46,000 Speaker 1: I reached out to was Plies. I talked to his manager. 1040 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:47,840 Speaker 1: He said, you know, applies don't due politics. Hee not 1041 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 1: in politics. So to see him doing this now, and 1042 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 1: reached out to him again. Since then, by the way, 1043 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,320 Speaker 1: reached out to his manager to say, why don't you 1044 00:42:54,360 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: help me get these people trained. You have a voice, 1045 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:58,840 Speaker 1: get these people train.

This work is not about applausing. They only 1054 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 1: want to be no disrespect. But entertainers like responding to 1055 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 1: the applause. So the minute you start booing them, the 1056 00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,680 Speaker 1: minutes you start saying, I don't like you. What we 1057 00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:29,480 Speaker 1: saw with Iceque when he took a chance and went 1058 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:30,840 Speaker 1: out there and talked about, you know, the state of 1059 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 1: Black America, and people started booing him and out.

That nobody's real. 1079 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: That's how you win these elections. That's why Trump was 1080 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 1: able to make that difference on people who were not 1081 00:44:23,600 --> 00:44:25,640 Speaker 1: engaged at all. But in order to do that, you 1082 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:27,560 Speaker 1: have to do it year round. You cannot do it 1083 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:29,960 Speaker 1: no ninety days before the campaign. It's never gonna work. 1084 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:32,000 Speaker 4: Because I agree with you, I think I think what 1085 00:44:32,040 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 4: we're saying is because I think that's what people think. 1086 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 4: People think that entertainers are the leaders that are generals. 1087 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 5: They're not. 1088 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:40,239 Speaker 4: They're the soldiers, right, and you want them to be 1089 00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:42,799 Speaker 4: the soldiers, right, to go organize the people to bring 1090 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 4: them back to the actual general the people to actually 1091 00:44:45,000 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 4: do them. 1092 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,920 Speaker 1: Absolutely, yes, absolutely, And y'all can have the mic.

It's a non partisan training that 1127 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:05,000 Speaker 1: I created. These people flew from all over LA, Dallas, Houston, 1128 00:46:06,120 --> 00:46:08,880 Speaker 1: New York. In the room, you know, three hundred people. 1129 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 1: That's why when people tell me, don't nobody want to 1130 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:13,840 Speaker 1: do this, they're not interested. That's not true. Jay was 1131 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,400 Speaker 1: there in the fact that she came to the training, 1132 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,760 Speaker 1: came all the way from DC. These people were outside 1133 00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,359 Speaker 1: at six am in the morning in the rain to 1134 00:46:20,440 --> 00:46:22,839 Speaker 1: learn how to do this. They want the training, they 1135 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 1: want to know how can I change on the local level. 1136 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: But we just don't have enough support to get around. 1137 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 1: So I'm asking people to text. Push the line all caps, 1138 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 1: push the line to sixty six, eight sixty six, And 1139 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm trying to get partners. Guys.

I believe my 1146 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 1: training is one of the best. And the reason why 1147 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: is because it truly is a military mindset. It truly 1148 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:53,839 Speaker 1: is cutting through all the bullshit. I've been to all 1149 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 1: the trainings.
