But of course you 53 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 2: own slaves, because right, of course you don't have desired 54 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 2: owned slaves. 55 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,160 Speaker 1: Signed neither do I. 56 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 2: And if there was any government agency listening in on 57 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 2: this here conversation, they should know that we're not talking 58 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,359 Speaker 2: about slave owner ship down. 59 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 4: All right? 60 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 2: So now how do you get around not paying your slaves? 61 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: Get out? 62 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: This is a prestigious university, and I am not saying 63 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: what more work do you? 64 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: You think you can do whatever you want, But because 65 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 2: your corporation is a university, this country was founded on 66 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 2: the ideas that one corporation couldn't hug all the slaves 67 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 2: while the rest of us wollowing povertych Screw you, simon, 68 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 2: I'm going home. 69 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 1: I do find it interesting that we all know exactly 70 00:03:53,560 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 1: what's happening here. A large number of college football players 71 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: will stick to football. This is also true of basketball, 72 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: but we'll stick to football in this case. I don't 73 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: know what percentage, but I think we can all agree 74 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: it's a large number of college football players are young 75 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: inner city black kids. Those kids are in their prime 76 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: earning capacity. If you look at the arc of their 77 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 1: life from the time they are eighteen to twenty two. 78 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: When they turn twenty two, let's not talk about hypothetically 79 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: what we'd like if you were to look at the 80 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 1: data of what becomes of their life. For most of 81 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: those kids, if there is nil in effect as it 82 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: is now uncapped, those kids are going to make more 83 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 1: money during those four years than the rest of their 84 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,640 Speaker 1: lives combined, unless they go pro. That is a fact. 85 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: Now you can say, well that' that doesn't have to 86 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 1: be that way. No, it doesn't. Nothing has to be 87 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 1: the way it is. But that is the reality. Why 88 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 1: wouldn't we By the way, as Dan Pastorini says, everybody's 89 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 1: going to stop playing. It's just a question to win. 90 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,559 Speaker 1: Some people stop playing in high school, some people stop 91 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: playing in college. Some people stop playing when they get 92 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: cut after the first year. Some make three, some make ten, 93 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: and then there's Tom Brady and George Blanda. But everybody's 94 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:35,039 Speaker 1: going to stop playing, and everybody's going to stop playing 95 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: when they are, relatively speaking a young man. And for 96 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: almost every NFL player or every player who ever makes 97 00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: a penny playing football, which is the tiniest percentage because 98 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: most people play football for the fun of it. But 99 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: if you do get to the point that you actually 100 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: get paid to play because you're entertaining to the people 101 00:05:56,760 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 1: up in the stands of time on which you can 102 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:06,040 Speaker 1: do that is frighteningly short compared to every other career. 103 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: So why shouldn't you be able to maximize your earnings 104 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: during those few years you can play. Doesn't that make sense? 105 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 1: So then we moved to the portal. By the way, 106 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: with Wesley Hunt's entrance into the Senate race, I will 107 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: open the phone lines for you to call and say 108 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 1: who you're voting for, and in just a few seconds. 109 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: Why don't need a long story. Don't just tell me 110 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,159 Speaker 1: who you're voting against. Tell me who you're voting for, 111 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: and give me one reason for it. Now, if you're 112 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: for Wesley Hunt or Ken Paxton and the reason you're 113 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: willing to vote for them is you hate Cornyn, fine, 114 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 1: but how do you choose between the two of them? 115 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: You can say both of those seven one three nine 116 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: nine nine one thousand, seven one three nine nine nine 117 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: one thousand, seven one three nine, one thousand. So then 118 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 1: we moved to this next issue, and this is the 119 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 1: new one. People have taken them all, right, man, Okay, 120 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 1: pay the damn players. That's fine. Pay the players, that's fine. 121 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: You mean like you get paid. You know, I don't 122 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: think you should get paid. I don't know why you 123 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 1: get paid. It makes sense. You get paid well, because 124 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: because I lift boxes and drive a forklift. Well, we 125 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: like caving you around. You're part of the part of 126 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: the group. There's a camaraderie to it all. We thought 127 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 1: you liked being here. I mean, we feed you lunch 128 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: every day and breakfast. We give you a uniform to wear. 129 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: Why do you need to get paid well, Well, but 130 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: that's it. No, no, no, no, no no, We're already 131 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: paying you. We feed you every day, we give you 132 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: health insurance, we give you a uniform. There's water available 133 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 1: for you to drink. We bring in donuts three days 134 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 1: a week. What why do you need to get paid well, 135 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: But uh, because I would like to get money. No, 136 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: you don't need to get money. They don't need to 137 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: get money. You don't need to get money. Why do 138 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: you need to get money? But the other one becomes 139 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: the portal. I don't like them moving around. I don't 140 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 1: like the fact that they can move school. Okay, you 141 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: stay stuck at your job for a minute. All right, 142 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: phone lines on the Senate race seven one three nine 143 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 1: nine nine one thousand. Allow need to introduce myself. 144 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 6: My name is Mitch Michael, Berry's genius. 145 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: I'm still get an email from a fellow. Use of 146 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 1: Hallelujah for Antifa spoof song really disappointing, tasteless, taking a 147 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: song meant to remember the little girls who perished in 148 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: a tragedy. You are right, I can turn the dial 149 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 1: and I will. You may not use my name on air, 150 00:08:52,240 --> 00:09:00,640 Speaker 1: so eager to be mad, so eager to boycott, so stupid. 151 00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,560 Speaker 1: I took the time because I was feeling patient to 152 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 1: explain that that song, which we didn't write, I discovered 153 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: it and I love it, which is a spoof of Antifa, 154 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: a murderous terror organization that President Trump has labeled as such. 155 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: Using that song to spoof them was not our idea, 156 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,760 Speaker 1: but we thought it was pretty good, so we amplified 157 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 1: it by playing it again. And it'll be posted to 158 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,320 Speaker 1: our blog today and they'll get a bunch of hits 159 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: off of it, and everybody wins, and we were all entertained. 160 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 1: But here's the part. Oh boy is so angry, He's 161 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: angry on behalf of the Camp Mystic Girls, because this 162 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: was their song and we shouldn't use that song for 163 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: anyone else, except it's not their song. There's a delightful 164 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:55,200 Speaker 1: young lady who made a wonderful tribute song to the 165 00:09:55,200 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 1: girls who died on July fourth and used the song 166 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: Hallelujah as the basis for it, But that's not the song. 167 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: The song was written in nineteen eighty four by Leonard Cohen, 168 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: a mostly nonpracticing jew who wanted to find a way 169 00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: to mix the music he heard from his cantor growing 170 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 1: up in Temple with the Christian songs he heard at 171 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 1: weddings and funerals, and I think he did an amazing 172 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: job of it. But truthfully, nobody would know the song. 173 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,080 Speaker 1: Most people wouldn't know the song if it hadn't been 174 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,079 Speaker 1: picked up by JJ Kele and then later by Jeff Beck. 175 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: It is not an overtly religious song to start with. 176 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 1: It's been used at funerals and weddings and everything in between. 177 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: But to suggest that we somehow took this song which 178 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: jackass there had never heard before the middle of July 179 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 1: when this young lady used the song, and that we 180 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: have perverted it, and that is poor taste. That's just 181 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: the kind of people that are running around that late 182 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: night television makes fun of that claim to be among 183 00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: us and embarrass us. I'm man over here. Why are 184 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 1: you mad? Y'all took and hallllo you song for them 185 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: girls in the river flood, and y'all used it for 186 00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: Antifa to make fun of ant Tifa, and that's horrible. 187 00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: I ain't for it, and I'm going to go somewhords else. Okay, Well, 188 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: that's that's not what the song is. The song's been 189 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: around for over forty years. That little girl who wrote 190 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: the song made the song off of an original song. 191 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,640 Speaker 1: This girl who made this song based it on that 192 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: same original song. But that song is not a camp 193 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: mystic song. It was just used in the camp mystic case. 194 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: It might have been used in John and Susie's wedding 195 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 1: as well, but we weren't spoofing John and Susie's wedding. 196 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,560 Speaker 1: Maybe take ten seconds to look something up before you 197 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: go far hiring off your boycott and your anger. Are 198 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: are you just walking around looking for something to be 199 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: angry at? Because by God, I want to lead a 200 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,679 Speaker 1: boycott too, will lead a boycott. Boycott stupidity and start 201 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 1: with yourself seven nine nine, nine one thousand. All right, 202 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 1: it is early. It'll be interesting to see how ideas 203 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: will grow and develop. Some people who love Wesley Hunt 204 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: today will not love him by election day. Some people 205 00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:26,840 Speaker 1: who love Ken Paston today will not love him on 206 00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,079 Speaker 1: election day. Some people who still support John Corning today 207 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: will not support him on election day. Because there will 208 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: be things that change. There will be revelations, there will 209 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 1: be how the campaign is going. There maybe people who 210 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 1: come into the campaign and people who leave. I did 211 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 1: hear from Steve Toath, who's running against Dan Crenshaw in 212 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: Congressional District two, that John Bunk, who was the third 213 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: candidate in that race, which would mean you would be 214 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: splitting the anti Crenshaw vote, is moving out of that race, 215 00:12:54,760 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: which is Congressional District two and into Congressional District thirty eight. 216 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: That is the seat that will be vacated by Wesley Hunt, 217 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: and I suspect there will be others. So a the 218 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: beginnings of the reshuffling of the deck with candidates moving out. 219 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 1: We've got Creighton going to Texas Tech the state senator. 220 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 1: We've got Brett Ligan in that race. I think there's 221 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 1: some more folks. Well, as time goes on, we will 222 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: bring those bring you those developments. We've got the comptroller, 223 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: Glenn Hagar leaving to take over at Texas A and M. 224 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,400 Speaker 1: So you've got four candidates in that race. You've got 225 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: a very very active attorney general's race, and you're going 226 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: to see quite a bit of movement in the coming 227 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,440 Speaker 1: months for the March primary. But let's get to your votes. 228 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to run to phones today. This is only 229 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: our second day to do this. Mike and Colorado, you're up. 230 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: Who you are? 231 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 3: Hey, Mark? I am for Ken Paxton, and I fear 232 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 3: that I like Wesley Hunt, but that he's going to 233 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 3: get torn and elected. So but I think Ken Paxton 234 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 3: has earned it. 235 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: Let me stop precent. How how would it work that 236 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: Wesley Hunt would get John Cornyn elected? 237 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 3: Well, at least he's going to get He's going to 238 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:22,840 Speaker 3: split the vote in the anti corning. 239 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: Okay, I think that presumes that case, But what if 240 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: that's well no, No, I get everybody everybody plays political consultant, 241 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,080 Speaker 1: but I think sometimes they get it wrong. And sometimes 242 00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: this this sort of armchair political consulting makes people say 243 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 1: and do things they're not accurate. What if Wesley Hunt's 244 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: entrance into the race splits the anti Paxton vote. There 245 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 1: are some people who are going to vote for Cornyan 246 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 1: who don't like Paxton because the media has beat up 247 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: on Paxton so many times that they figure whether smoke 248 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 1: there's fire. Now. Most of those didn't buy that with 249 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: Trump because Trump's God. But Paxton doesn't get to be God. 250 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 1: He still has to be a man. So if they 251 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: keep attacking him this much, he must be less than 252 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 1: God and less than perfect. So I'm going to vote 253 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: for somebody other than Paxton. So they go back home 254 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 1: where they're from. They go back to roost, which is Cornin. 255 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: What if the anti Paxton forces that cornn has been 256 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: driving say I don't like Cornin, I don't like Paxton. 257 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: I'm going over here to Wesley Hunt, in which case 258 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: Cornyn doesn't get those votes. We don't know how big 259 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: that block of votes is yet, but if that's the case, 260 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: then you force a runoff. If Paxton gets corn in 261 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: a runoff, don't waste the time holding a vote because 262 00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: he will beat him. Well, let's just say he'll beat him, 263 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 1: and we don't know what that number is going to 264 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 1: look like. Yet we don't know where people really are yet, Beth, 265 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: you're up who you got Wesley. 266 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 9: Hunt, absolutely no question about it. 267 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 8: Why he is a man of integrity. 268 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 9: He has served our country. 269 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 1: Phil and Joe. Sorry, I had to cut you off 270 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: of killing Joe. You're coming up call? I used to. 271 00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 1: That's the use of Hallelujah in the movie Shrek. I 272 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: wonder if Richard is upset about that, he responded after 273 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: I laid out my comment. I know the history of 274 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: the song. I thought you were using an AI version 275 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 1: of the little girl who sang it. No you didn't. 276 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,520 Speaker 1: They don't sound anything alike. You didn't know the history 277 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: you need. Your reaction got mad. This is what happens 278 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: when you've got people's adrenaline flowing at all time, mad 279 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 1: about everything all day. Every day, I hear from me, Hey, 280 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: well we need a boycott concrete. How come to much concrete? 281 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: What do you mean? 282 00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 6: Well? 283 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 1: I read a story about it. You can't be mad 284 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: at everybody all the time. You start looking ridiculous, you 285 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 1: start looking paranoid. You've got to pick and choose. You 286 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: can't be mad at everything all the time, or people 287 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 1: who aren't mad at everything all the time, look at 288 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 1: you like a nut. And then it comes time for 289 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 1: you to say, hey, vote for Trump. Vote for Trump 290 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,679 Speaker 1: because the other side's evil, other side's evil. According to you, 291 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: everything's evil. Everything's evil all the time. Nothing's not evil. 292 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 1: Remember you got mad at me.

You're mad all the time about everything. You 295 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: don't have any credibility left. And you don't see yourself. 296 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,080 Speaker 1: By the way, you're probably unpleasant to live with, be around, 297 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: work with, work for do business with, dial it back. 298 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 1: You look like a fool. You're mad at everything all 299 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: the time. And every time you mad at something and 300 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 1: you scream and holler, you shoot another bullet and then 301 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: you're out. You got nothing left. You have no ability 302 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: to bring change in society because nobody trusts your endorsement, 303 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 1: your opinion, your recommendation, because they're tired of you being 304 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 1: mad at everything. You have no credibility left. Just heard 305 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 1: from Wesley Hunt and he will be joining us tomorrow 306 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: morning at eight fifteen. Our policy on candidates for office. 307 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:18,640 Speaker 1: You know, let me go through this first, and I'm 308 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 1: going to explain on our policy on candidates for office. 309 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 1: It won't matter, because if people want to be on 310 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: the air, they're going to get mad. And if they 311 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,199 Speaker 1: want to be on the air and they're not allowed 312 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: on the air, then they're going to get mad. And 313 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,760 Speaker 1: there's really there's no policy you can have to keep 314 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 1: that from happening. Phil from Falls Church of Virginia. I 315 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: think on the Orange Line, if I remember correctly. 316 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 8: You're up, Sir Patay Wesley Hunt. 317 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: And that is because. 318 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 8: Comment aviation pilot west Point Graduate, a sixty four pilot. 319 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 8: And if you've ever known these guys, nobody's going to 320 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 8: tell him what to do.

And then did 325 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: you say sixty. 326 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:12,120 Speaker 8: Four A sixty four AA sixty four is a PATCHI helicopter? 327 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 1: Oh my bad?

Joe, 351 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: you're on the Michael Berry Show. Go ahead. 352 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 6: Voting for Ken Paxton because he's a dog, he's a fighter, 353 00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 6: and he wins. He's the only one in this race 354 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 6: that can articulate the Chris Serve a position in Congress 355 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 6: the way we want. 356 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: All right, and your thoughts on Wesley Hunt. 357 00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 6: I think Wesley Hunt's a great candidate, but I want 358 00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 6: someone in there that's a braceist, that's going to challenge 359 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 6: the Democrats, that's gonna be a fighter. I know Wesley 360 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 6: Hunt is as well, but Ken Paxton has a proven 361 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 6: track record, So for that, I get him the leg up. 362 00:20:55,240 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 1: All right, thank you, seven one thousand, seven one thousand. 363 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: So a number of people think that I think I 364 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: mentioned Wesley Hunt will be our guest at eight fifteen 365 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: tomorrow morning. A lot of people the immediate reaction at 366 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: first Blush is Paxton versus Cornyn. Paxton is leading in 367 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 1: the polls, and I think Paxton beats corn There's no 368 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: doubt about that in my mind. And the belief is 369 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,159 Speaker 1: if Wesley Hunt gets in, that splits the vote and 370 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 1: re elects Cornyn. I don't believe that's how the numbers 371 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: will work out. And here is why I say that. 372 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: When you look at political consultants and observers, operatives and 373 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: strategists will often use the term lane. What is the 374 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 1: lane of a candidate? When you look at the lane, 375 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 1: John Cornyn has establishment guy, a guy that people are 376 00:22:06,800 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: going to vote for because he's the name you know, 377 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,239 Speaker 1: a guy's gonna vote for because he have a lot 378 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 1: of money behind him, and they're going to keep telling 379 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: you John Wayne mccorny, and he's one of us. He's 380 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: a good guy, he's a fighter. 381 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 3: Right. 382 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: Then, if you look at the lane of Paxton, that 383 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: is a it's a wide lane that encompasses two major components. 384 00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 1: Number One, fighter guy that is tough. A lot of 385 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: Texas Republican voters. Remember, if just stay focused here, this 386 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: is a primary, not a general. Texas Republican voters like 387 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 1: a fighter. When George P. Bush was on his four 388 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: wheeler on the canyon there, he looked ridiculous. And the 389 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: Bush family already has that reputation of this sort of 390 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: patrician family that vacations in Maine. And here was little 391 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 1: George P. Look at me? How you turned in? And 392 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: it was ridiculous and it was the best Carl Road 393 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 1: could do. But it didn't add up. And he's Jeb 394 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 1: Bush's son. Again. Trump really exposed this kind of low energy, soft, flabby, 395 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:21,199 Speaker 1: pasty Republican candidate, and I think the base has that 396 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 1: has resonated with the base. Paxton comes from that platform. 397 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: He comes from the fighter. Trump made it such that 398 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: you can be indicted, you can have a woman divorce 399 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: you, you can have people criticize you, you can have people 400 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 1: say you're a terrible person. And if a Republican primary 401 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: believes that you have been wrongfully accused or that it 402 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with your job, then I think 403 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 1: by and large, in the main it does not affect 404 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,439 Speaker 1: your overall. It might cost you a few percentage points, 405 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 1: and for now it's gonna be a long, rueling campaign. 406 00:23:56,640 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 1: For now, I would say that's where Ken Paxton is. 407 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 1: So there's your two way. Each of them has their lane. 408 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: The question is who's lane does Wesley Hunt take. Everybody 409 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: assumes Wesley Hunt takes part of Ken Paxton's lane. I 410 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: don't believe that's true, and I'm gonna show you that 411 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 1: within the next two weeks, you're going to see John 412 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: Cornyn start attacking Wesley Hunt. There's a reason for that. 413 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: He's going to stop attacking Paxton and start attacking Wesley Hunton. 414 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: He's going to attack him Hart watching. 415 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 9: We'll reprint them or refine your money. 416 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 2: No matter who's fault, it is the very show photo map. 417 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 8: Your photo matters. 418 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 2: It's a man tend he was there. 419 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 10: It was on this day three years ago the great 420 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 10: Vienne sausage mystery saga came to an end when Ramon 421 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:54,719 Speaker 10: Roebliss Junior, who turned eighty yesterday, discovered that the Viennye 422 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:58,679 Speaker 10: sausages that had been stolen, lost, misplaced, or couldn't be 423 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 10: found were. 424 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:05,720 Speaker 1: Located exactly where they were supposed to be in the cabinet. Yes, 425 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: the chocolate cake for the weekend was from Treebeards, the 426 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 1: yellow cake with the chocolate icing. Thank you to all 427 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,239 Speaker 1: of you who sent in an email. A number of 428 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:25,919 Speaker 1: you got upset over whatever, because you get upset over everything. 429 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,719 Speaker 1: We had I think four hundred people comment on a 430 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,640 Speaker 1: great place to get a cake in the neighborhood, which 431 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: means that a number of cake places got to sell 432 00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: cakes to people who didn't know about them ten minutes ago. 433 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: And that's a good thing. How about relax a little 434 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: calm down so people still take you seriously. Wesley Hunt's 435 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:50,120 Speaker 1: announcement that he is entering the Senate race shakes up 436 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 1: a two way into a three way. We're going to 437 00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: record the calls we get today and we will look 438 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: back the day before the election at how people's opinions 439 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: have changed. Some people like Wesley Hunt today and won't 440 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 1: like him on that day. Some people like Ken Paxton 441 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 1: today and won't like him some people, same thing with 442 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: John Cornyn. That's what elections do. You start slinging mud 443 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: at somebody. Sometimes some of that sticks. Some people are 444 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:25,040 Speaker 1: gonna say Ken Paxton today, and later they're gonna say, hey, 445 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 1: do they know much about Hunt? I really like him. 446 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: Some people are gonna say Wesley Hunt today, and in 447 00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,280 Speaker 1: time they're going to go back to Paxton. That's how 448 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 1: campaigns work. And you take a snapshot today, but that 449 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: snapshot is not how everything ends. Proof positive. I told 450 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: you earlier the first week of the college football season, 451 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 1: of the four top teams that were projected, three of 452 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: those four are not in the top twenty five any longer. 453 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 1: As Denny Green said, Chad, that's why you play the game. 454 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:02,320 Speaker 1: That's why you play the game. They are exactly who 455 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,680 Speaker 1: we thought they were, except in this case that's not 456 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: always going to be true. Mindy, you're on the Michael 457 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: Berry Show. Who will you take? Sweetheart? 458 00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:15,800 Speaker 9: Ken Paxton. I like the fact that he's Magan, he's 459 00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,160 Speaker 9: a fighter, and he has a proven record and all 460 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,280 Speaker 9: the times that he went up against the Biden administration 461 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,359 Speaker 9: and one no on Wesley Hunt. He was one of 462 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 9: the forty seven Republican House members that voted to get 463 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 9: out of Syria within that one and eighty time day 464 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,280 Speaker 9: time frame that Biden had set up, and so he 465 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 9: was he was in that group. So I definitely don't 466 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 9: believe in him. 467 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,320 Speaker 1: And let me ask you why. I mean that vote 468 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 1: was that and that vote mattered to you that much? 469 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: Or do you just not like you you. 470 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:55,360 Speaker 9: Seem I feel like that contributed to what eventually happened 471 00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 9: getting out in such a just a lot of turmoil, 472 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 9: and it was just leaving. It just felt like it 473 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 9: was the wrong decision to broadcast a time period in 474 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 9: which we were to get out and how we were 475 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 9: to get out to the world. And so I don't 476 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 9: trust him. I know he's got a great military career 477 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 9: and that's great. I'm not sure he's done anything much 478 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 9: in the House representatives that I know of. I looked 479 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 9: him up weeks ago, and I definitely don't want Corn 480 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 9: and I post every day on Twitter to get corn 481 00:28:29,840 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 9: and out. 482 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,919 Speaker 1: Mindy, for the record, I don't disagree with your opinion 483 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,040 Speaker 1: on Syria. It wouldn't matter. It's the conversation that matters. 484 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: I just wanted to make sure you understand. Sometimes I 485 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: ask questions and push back to force people to explain 486 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,640 Speaker 1: themselves better, and I would love to talk with you 487 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: about Syria. At some point. I think we're in violent 488 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 1: agreement on the matter. It turns out that everybody said 489 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 1: we had to get rid of a sad A. Sod's 490 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: a bad guy. Sod's a bad guy. Yes, he's a 491 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 1: bad guy, but he's a better bad guy that he's 492 00:28:58,640 --> 00:28:59,960 Speaker 1: going to be replaced with. No, No, I saw it. 493 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: That's a bad guy, all right, You're going to replace 494 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: him with a worse guy. That's also what happened in Libya. 495 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,480 Speaker 1: That's also what happened in Egypt. That's also what happened 496 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:11,959 Speaker 1: in Iraq. We have a very very nasty habit of 497 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 1: violating the Powell doctrine, which is if you break it, 498 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 1: you buy it, you fix it. We love to topple 499 00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: leaders because they are imperfect leaders, and we don't understand 500 00:29:22,040 --> 00:29:25,920 Speaker 1: the regions well enough to understand that the person who's 501 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 1: going to replace that guy who's imperfect is going to 502 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: be far worse. At least we understand that in Saudi Arabia. Bill, 503 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: you're on the Michael Berry Show. What say you, sir? 504 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: Who are you for? 505 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 4: I'm definitely for Paxton. I was at the four hour 506 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 4: and forty five minutes of hearing that this state House had. 507 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 4: It was a railroad job. I mean, one charge after 508 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:56,120 Speaker 4: another after another, with no rebuttal at all. It was infuriating. 509 00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 4: And like I live in Victoria. When Victoria you have 510 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 4: the Hurricane Harvey. We saw Ted Cruse five times right 511 00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 4: here in Victoria's Ted Cruz loaded cars with water and 512 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 4: food for the people for an hour and a half 513 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 4: and sweat right through his clothes, all of his clothes. 514 00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 4: We never saw John Cornon except one time at a school. 515 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,880 Speaker 4: I hate John Cornyan. I love the Paxton. That the 516 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 4: Paxton is a junkyard dog and he's got teeth. 517 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: I got it. I got it, bite, I'm gonna keep moving, Bill, 518 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: thank you, but I got it. Darcy. Who you with? 519 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 7: I am with Ken Paxton. I actually block walked for 520 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 7: Wesley Hunt in his both of his campaigns for Congress, 521 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 7: his first one against Lizzie Fletcher. I just I was 522 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 7: a Ted Cruz supporter for him when he ran against 523 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 7: Trump in twenty sixteen. That was my first choice, and 524 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 7: I believe that Paxton is going to fight. He's been 525 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 7: so bullied by the establishment that when he gets to 526 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 7: d C, he's still going to have a lot of 527 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 7: fight left in him. And that's one of the things 528 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 7: I like the most about Ted Cruz is that he's 529 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 7: fighting day I got it. 530 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 1: I hear that sentiment a lot in the emails that 531 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: what Ken Paxton has been through has proven he's been 532 00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: through the fire and people like him as a result 533 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: of that. I think Wesley Hunt's challenge to start with 534 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 1: is from what I hear from a lot of people 535 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,880 Speaker 1: is look, I really like him. I really like Wesley Hunt. 536 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm just going with Paxton. And I had a similar 537 00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 1: feeling when I ran for mayor, but people would say, 538 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: I really like you, but I'm going with Orlando Sanchez 539 00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 1: because I went with him last time. That's not to 540 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: say Wesley Hunt cannot overcome that challenge. He has not 541 00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: had to go through the fires that Ken Paxton has 542 00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 1: to have an opportunity to prove himself worthy or unworthy, 543 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: and there are six months left. The President's endorsement would 544 00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,400 Speaker 1: make a world of difference he's not going to endorse Cornyn. 545 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 1: Many people thought that Wesley Hunt wouldn't get in unless 546 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: Trump endorsed him. He has now entered the race. There 547 00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: was some talk Ken Paxton can lay claim to the 548 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: Trump endorsement, and Trump has endorsed him in the past 549 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: and he's carried a lot of water for Trump. I 550 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: suspect Trump stays out of that race because if there 551 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: are three different answers to how that could cause him 552 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: problems and how he doesn't want to mess the race up, 553 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:36,200 Speaker 1: It's going to be very interesting. We'll talk to Wesley 554 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 1: Hunt tomorrow morning. Keep sending you your emails of your 555 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: thoughts on the race.
