Appreciate all the 5 00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:15,400 Speaker 2: affiliates that hosted me all over the country this morning. 6 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 2: A lot of fun, and we're going to continue that 7 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:23,920 Speaker 2: fun with a bevy of stories to chase down throughout 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: the course of the program. Let'll give you a little roadmap. 9 00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 2: Bill O'Reilly will be with us at one thirty eastern, 10 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 2: Adam Carolla at two thirty eastern. Those are our guests. 11 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: There is a new New York Times poll out showing 12 00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 2: that Donald Trump and Joe Biden are dead even at 13 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 2: forty three percent each. Included in that number is a 14 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:52,159 Speaker 2: surging amount of support from Hispanic voters. Joe Biden's margin 15 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,640 Speaker 2: down to just three points according to New York Times 16 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 2: poll forty one to thirty eight on Hispanics, Joe Biden 17 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 2: with only a thirty nine nine percent approval rate. We 18 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 2: will discuss what all of the significance of that is. 19 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 2: But as we ended yesterday's program with the Devon Archer testimony, 20 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: we still have not seen a full transcript, but much 21 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:20,280 Speaker 2: of what he has said has been distributed and block. 22 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: Let's just start here. I saw a story this morning. 23 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 2: Devn Archer mentioned forty eight times on CNN and MSNBC. 24 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 2: Donald Trump mentioned seven hundred and fifty nine times yesterday afternoon. 25 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 1: I was curious. 26 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: I was in the hotel gym, and so I had 27 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 2: every one of the television newscast was on in there, 28 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 2: and I could see how CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News 29 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:55,320 Speaker 2: were all playing the Devon Archer testimony. Not surprisingly, CNN 30 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 2: and MSNBC, The New York Times, the Washington Post, they've 31 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 2: effectively pretended that this did not exist at all, and 32 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: they have all engaged in rampant shifting of the storyline 33 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 2: such that Buck, I want to play this for you first. 34 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 2: This is Dan Goldman, who is a Democrat congressman. He 35 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 2: says that I mean, and this is crazy that basically 36 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: the reason these conversations were going on, and remember they 37 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: disputed whether there were any conversations going on at all, 38 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 2: was because of bo Biden's death. 39 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: Listen to this. 40 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 3: Bo Biden got very sick in early twenty fifteen. He 41 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 3: died in the spring of twenty fifteen, which was right 42 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 3: in the middle when Devon Archer had his business dealings 43 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 3: with Hunter Biden. At that point, Joe Biden and Hunter 44 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 3: Biden began to speak every day because they were both 45 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 3: devastated by Bo's death. 46 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: They spoke every day. 47 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 3: The witness testified that over his ten year relationship with 48 00:02:57,080 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 3: Hunter Biden, there may be approximately twenty times when in 49 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 3: one of those conversations, Hunter Biden would put his father 50 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: at a dinner, not at a business meeting, at a 51 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 3: dinner that he was having if he happened to get 52 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 3: hold of his father and would ask his father to 53 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 3: say hello to whoever was at the table. 54 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,639 Speaker 1: And that was essentially the extent of it. 55 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,359 Speaker 2: Oh my god, So now the dead brother is the 56 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: reason why they were having phone calls back. 57 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 4: You remember the last time we talked about this on 58 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 4: this show, I said, the ultimate fallback for Joe Biden 59 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,959 Speaker 4: from the media, it's always the same thing. 60 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: It's sympathy. Sympathy for Joe has. 61 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 2: Nothing to do. 62 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 4: I mean, you can do this for an Everybody has lost, 63 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 4: Everybody has pain, Everyone has lost people that mattered them 64 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 4: in their lives. Not everyone's President of the United States. 65 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 4: Not everybody is held or should be held to a 66 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 4: standard of not just wisdom and excellent conduct. But I mean, 67 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 4: in the case of Joe Biden, and this is so 68 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 4: obviously a massive scam, it's so clear what was going 69 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 4: on here that they fall back to try to play 70 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 4: the sympathy card. Look, they do it with Hunter, Oh, 71 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 4: he's an addict, so we can't criticize him. They do 72 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 4: it with Biden throughout his entire life. And Biden loves 73 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 4: to deploy and has deployed that card. Remember he claims 74 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 4: that he ran for president because his son's last wish 75 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,559 Speaker 4: was that he run for president. I know, I can't 76 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 4: say I wasn't in the room, but that's a very 77 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 4: convenient storyline for Joe Biden, who we know lied about 78 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 4: what Trump said and the intent of Trump's words in Charlottesville, 79 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 4: and use that as another reason for at least another 80 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 4: claim about why he was running. But Clay, you know, 81 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 4: the issue that they run into here is they've set 82 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 4: this standard whereby even the appearance of impropriety for a president, 83 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:55,640 Speaker 4: for an elected official, when it's a Republican, is enough, well, 84 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,719 Speaker 4: in the case of Trump, to impeach, to indict, to 85 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 4: do all these things. Where to believe Joe Biden was 86 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 4: having these calls, was having these conversations and wasn't fully aware. 87 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:09,919 Speaker 4: What they're effectively saying is Joe Biden was engaged in 88 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 4: a fraud and the fraud was the bribe that was 89 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 4: supposed to lead to action, but was never going to do. 90 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: You know what I mean. 91 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 4: It's almost like they're saying, I didn't sell drugs. I 92 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 4: didn't sell them weed, I sold them oregano. 93 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: Well that's not good either. We're going to play some 94 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: of those cuts. 95 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: I would just say this, and I would be curious 96 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 2: for other business owners out there. Eight hundred and two 97 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 2: A two two eight A two. You just heard Goldman say, oh, 98 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 2: there are just random twenty calls over the course of 99 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 2: their relationship. Twenty calls is a lot for business partners. 100 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 2: And I'll give you an example. I am forty four 101 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 2: years old. I have had a variety of different businesses 102 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 2: and business ventures in my life. My dad has never 103 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 2: been on any call with anybody that I've ever done 104 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 2: business with. 105 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,159 Speaker 1: Zero times. 106 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 2: Now, if I were in business with my dad, that 107 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 2: might change. But I think for anyone that has ever 108 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: been involved in a business, when you hear oh, he 109 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 2: just put his dad on the phone when he happened 110 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 2: to be engaged in these meetings, because they call so frequently. 111 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 1: I've never done that. 112 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 2: I bet that most of you out there who run businesses, 113 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: whether and you might have great relationships with your dad too, 114 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 2: you might have had personal loss in your life too. 115 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 2: Most people, the difference between their business and their life 116 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 2: is fairly substantial, such that it would be pretty weird. 117 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:53,280 Speaker 2: I think if I were out to dinner in a 118 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 2: business setting and somebody said, Hey, my dad just called. 119 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: He wants to say hi to everybody, and he didn't 120 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 2: know anybody in the room at all. What they are selling, 121 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 2: Buck is such a lie. And then Devin that they 122 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: tried to say, oh, he was just calling to ask 123 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 2: about the weather and those kind of things. The weather 124 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 2: it's cold in Ukraine. Well, I don't care what the 125 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 2: weather is in China right now. It doesn't impact me 126 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 2: in any way. Joe Biden was a participant in this business, Buck, 127 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 2: There's no way they can justify those calls in any 128 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 2: other way. 129 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: Can I just throw out there the. 130 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 4: Speed with which they have moved on the Joe and 131 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 4: Hunter Biden Global Corruption Tour, The speed with which they 132 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 4: have moved from nothing happened, He knew nothing, Joe was 133 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 4: never even in contact, No illegality occurred, Joe saying Hunter 134 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 4: is the smartest person I've ever known, Joe saying my 135 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 4: son did nothing wrong. Turns out he actually committed a 136 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 4: whole bunch of felonies. That's just a matter of public record. 137 00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 4: Now we all know that. And Joe also is far 138 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 4: more involved. Do you see though, the way the New 139 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 4: York Times opened their big piece on this one Clay, 140 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: This was their line. It has long been known that 141 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 4: the elder mister Biden at times interacted with his son's 142 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 4: business partners. That is a quote of the New York 143 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 4: Times piece on this that is not known to the 144 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 4: New York Times audience. The New York Times audience believes 145 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 4: that Joe Biden is as innocent as can be and 146 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 4: had nothing to do with any of this, because he 147 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 4: said so, and it is a huge lie. Joe Biden 148 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 4: is a liar. Everybody capital l liar. I believe we 149 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 4: have audio. This is from Fox News. It is a 150 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 4: montage to build on what you said. Where the New 151 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 4: York Times is like, of course he spoke with his 152 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 4: son's business partners. It's long been known Here is a 153 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 4: Fox News montage of Joe Biden saying, I never discussed 154 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: business with my son. 155 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 5: I did not know he was on the board of 156 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 5: that company. That never discussed my business or their business, 157 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 5: my sons or daughters. I never discussed a single thing 158 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 5: with my son about anything having to do with the crane. 159 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 5: I've never spoken my son about his overseis min service. 160 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 5: I have never discussed with my son, or my brother 161 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 5: or anyone else ending him to do with their businesses. Period. 162 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: Okay, so that is clearly a lie. 163 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:27,080 Speaker 2: Also, it would make Joe Biden kind of a jerk, right, 164 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 2: I said, I've never had my dad call my business partners, 165 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: and I've never called him to do that. But I 166 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: certainly on some level, and I bet most people who 167 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 2: are involved in business at all have discussed what they're 168 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: doing in their life with their parents. Joe Biden claims 169 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 2: he didn't know his son was on the Bearisma board. 170 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 2: I mean, that is such a flagrant lie. I mean, 171 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 2: I if one of my sons were on a major 172 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 2: company making hundreds of thousands of dollars, one I would 173 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 2: know too. If if I were a politician, buck, it 174 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 2: would be my job to know if my son was 175 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,239 Speaker 2: on a board like that, because I would be concerned 176 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:13,560 Speaker 2: about not only impropriety, but, as you mentioned earlier, the 177 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 2: appearance of impropriety, which is incredibly toxic to any sort 178 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: of legitimacy surrounding politics if it just appears you're on 179 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 2: the take. 180 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 4: I mean, let's just take this into another realm for 181 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 4: a second, one with which you are quite fond of 182 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 4: familiar Clay, Imagine that you're looking at a super Bowl, 183 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 4: a Super Bowl match coming up, right, super Bowl game, 184 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 4: and you say to somebody, hey, you know my uncle. 185 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 4: We got uncle Bill on later. By the way, Bill 186 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 4: Riley would be with us, but he's not the uncle 187 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 4: we're talking about here. My uncle is the head referee 188 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 4: in the super Bowl. Now, I'm not saying that your 189 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 4: team is going to win, because it's going to come 190 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 4: down to a couple of close calls. If you give 191 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 4: me a million dollars, but why don't I get my 192 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 4: uncle on the line just so you know how close 193 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 4: we are and how much influence I have with him, 194 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 4: and maybe give me a million dollars because down the 195 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,120 Speaker 4: line we'll figure out some other way to work together. 196 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,080 Speaker 4: That is one hundred percent analogous to what Joe Biden 197 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 4: and Hunter Biden were doing here. It was the perception, 198 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 4: the belief among foreign entities that they would be able 199 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 4: to leverage Hunter. And let's be clear, you asked me 200 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:30,719 Speaker 4: about this claim the context of clandestine operations an espionage. 201 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 4: Even the belief that those entities, those foreign adversaries would 202 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 4: have had bought influence to to Joe Biden through Hunter, 203 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,520 Speaker 4: would be able to be used as a leverage point. 204 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 4: You know, even if Hunter goes, yeah, you know what, 205 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,240 Speaker 4: my dad's actually not doing anything for you. You know what 206 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 4: they say, Well, maybe we talked to some people publicly 207 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 4: about the millions of dollars that you took promising that 208 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 4: your dad is going to give us favorable treatment in China, 209 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 4: do you know what I mean? Even just the the relationship, 210 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,960 Speaker 4: there is the problem. This is you know, how you 211 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,440 Speaker 4: recruit people for any number of things around the world, 212 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 4: You just get them to start accepting gifts. 213 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 2: Well, not only that, remember there's the WhatsApp message where 214 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 2: Hunter directly says call me now, and I'm paraphrasing I'm 215 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 2: sitting right next to my dad and if you don't 216 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: pay us immediately, basically there will be held to pay 217 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 2: on my word as a Biden and they've proven Buck 218 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 2: that he was at Joe Biden's house and that Joe 219 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: Biden was there. Do we not think that there was 220 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 2: a call made then from China potentially to see whether 221 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 2: Joe Biden was there and or if there was not, 222 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 2: they likely knew of the Joe Biden appraisal of that 223 00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 2: situation because Joe Biden had probably called in to talk 224 00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 2: to them before. And again, this just brings home if 225 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 2: Hunter was such an incredible asset, right, if he wasn't 226 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 2: trading on nepotism, if he wasn't trading on who his 227 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: dad was, why can't Hunter show us something tangible that 228 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 2: he did personally that was worth millions of dollars? 229 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 1: Right? 230 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: I mean, if I'm paying you millions of dollars and 231 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 2: you are doing great work for me, shouldn't there be 232 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,160 Speaker 2: some tangible evidence of your work product to reflect the 233 00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:28,839 Speaker 2: value that you've created for my company? And I want 234 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: to open up phone lines, by the way, eight hundred 235 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 2: and two eight two two eight eight two for anybody 236 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 2: out there who runs a business. How weird would it 237 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:42,960 Speaker 2: be if you suddenly got your dad on the phone 238 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 2: in the middle of a business meeting unless your dad 239 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,400 Speaker 2: is involved, or unless he has a pre existing relationship 240 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 2: with somebody, it's super weird. Again, I've been in business 241 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 2: a lot in the last twenty years. Buck never once 242 00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 2: have I thought, oh, I need to get my dad 243 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 2: on the phone to talk with you guys during the meeting. 244 00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: It's extortion. 245 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 4: Yes, what Hunter Biden was doing is extortion effectively, when 246 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:16,000 Speaker 4: you know, when you're looking at what the implied threat 247 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 4: is here and not even apply it. I mean, in 248 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 4: the case you brought up the WhatsApp message, it's just 249 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 4: better happen or else. 250 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a pretty correct threat, you know. 251 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 4: It's it's not just what Joe Biden can do, it's 252 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 4: what Joe Biden's connections in forty plus years of government 253 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:34,680 Speaker 4: will do. Look, this is this is a whole corrupt artifice. 254 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 4: The whole thing is ethically let's be clear. I just 255 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 4: want everyone to mark this down in their minds. No 256 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 4: one can ethically defend what the Bidens were doing. It 257 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 4: is ethically indefensible. 258 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: They're only now Their only. 259 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 4: Defense that they're going to mount is well, it's not criminal, 260 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 4: and let's you know, and Trump is a bigger criminal. 261 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: That's it. 262 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,160 Speaker 2: That's what they're going to say. That's the effect. It's 263 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 2: eight hundred and two two two eight a two. I'm 264 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 2: just curious business people out there, how crazy does that 265 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 2: strike you? And then oh, he was just talking about 266 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 2: the weather.

Here 291 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 4: is Joe Biden with this announcement play at I. 292 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 5: Have seven grandkids, four more five Mollien ups to talk 293 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 5: on the phone.

I mean, you know what, 298 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 4: what's the cost him of admitting he's got it? You know, 299 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 4: so he's got another grandchild is out of wedlock. But 300 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 4: beyond that that, I think it's all tied to. They're 301 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 4: going to need to run the cuddly Grandpa Biden playbook 302 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 4: over and over again between now and election day, they 303 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 4: if they're still going to make him the candidate, right, 304 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 4: this is all tied in together. 305 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 2: Well, that's the illusion that they sold was Biden would 306 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,439 Speaker 2: return normalcy to the United States. The reality is Joe 307 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 2: Biden's not your cuddly grandpa. He is a far left 308 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 2: wing ideologue that they are hiding and using to advance 309 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: far left wing ideologies. And I think that's why the 310 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 2: idea of him not acknowledging this four year old little 311 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,919 Speaker 2: girl in Arkansas, they had to be polling on it. 312 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 2: First of all, you told to figure out to acknowledge 313 00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 2: a grandchild's pathetic. 314 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,080 Speaker 4: Do you think he believes in all that left wing 315 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 4: stuff there? He's just a vessel for it, right Like, 316 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 4: I don't know if he's an ideologue. I feel like 317 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 4: he's a pass through. Well, I think he is a 318 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 4: path I don't think he has any knowledge of what's 319 00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:55,640 Speaker 4: going on on a day to day basis right now. 320 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 2: I think he's never very smart, but I think mentally 321 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,640 Speaker 2: and physically he's unable to be president.

That is the 342 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 2: implications behind what they are arguing, and that is this 343 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,919 Speaker 2: in particular, and I'm reading I was curious how this 344 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 2: was going to be covered so late last night. 345 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,120 Speaker 1: Had an amazing time, by the. 346 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 2: Way, watching the Atlanta Braves play against the Anaheim Angels 347 00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:30,440 Speaker 2: show Hey, o'tani, who is a modern day Babe Ruth 348 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 2: in baseball? What he's doing book pitching and hitting. It 349 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 2: was an awesome time watching that game. Get back home 350 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 2: and I'm like, Okay, I really want to dive into 351 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 2: postgame how this was being covered by the New York Times, 352 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,719 Speaker 2: Washington Post, everybody else. So I'm reading last night this 353 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 2: is the headline. I tweeted this out. The headline after 354 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:56,159 Speaker 2: Devin archers testimony at New York Times was Biden spoke 355 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 2: with sons associates, but not about business. Former partner says, 356 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 2: that's the headline sub headline. Republicans accused the president of lying, 357 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 2: while Democrats said the testimony of Devon Archer, who worked 358 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 2: with Hunter Biden, showed that his son was selling quote, 359 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 2: the illusion of. 360 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: Access to his father. 361 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: If you are selling to someone the illusion of access, 362 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 2: if you are selling an illusion, that is fraud. So 363 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: under the best version that Democrats and their media allies 364 00:20:42,320 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 2: in the New York Times buck, under the best version 365 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 2: of Hunter Biden's behavior, that they can now sell to 366 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 2: the general public, they are selling to everyone. Hunter Biden 367 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 2: was lying to his business partners. They got nothing in 368 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:02,880 Speaker 2: extrame change for what they were paying, and in fact, 369 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:06,240 Speaker 2: what he was selling he didn't even have the ability 370 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 2: to sell, which is a lie in and of itself. 371 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 4: I used to do this back belither or not, when 372 00:21:11,359 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 4: I would squabble with libs over at CNN in twenty 373 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 4: fifteen on the Hillary thing, I would say, Okay, so basically, 374 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 4: you know, Hillary Clinton could go around and Bill Clinton 375 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 4: could go around getting paid five hundred thousand dollars a 376 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 4: speech for like a thirty minute speech, and we're supposed 377 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 4: to believe that's just what the market will bear, that 378 00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 4: there's no effort to buy. What if Hillary was a painter? 379 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 4: I used to say this, What if she was just like, oh, 380 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 4: I'm doing finger paintings. Now Hunter Biden actually does that, 381 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 4: as we know, which was so amazing. He actually went 382 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 4: just full on like basically money laundering. 383 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: The whole thing is a joke. 384 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 4: But if you look at Clay in this context, and 385 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 4: we just talked about this, I think this lays it 386 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 4: out well. What would the response of the public be 387 00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:01,679 Speaker 4: if pick a popular republic in governor anywhere, right, what 388 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 4: would the response Governor Lee right, Tennessee will do governorly. 389 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:10,439 Speaker 4: If Governor Lee was on video saying, hey, you know, 390 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 4: I know you, as a contractor, want that ten million 391 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:18,800 Speaker 4: dollar construction project from the state of Tennessee. I think 392 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 4: a million dollars to me or my campaign would really 393 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 4: benefit you. I'm not saying you're gonna get the contract, 394 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: but I'm saying that I know you want it, and 395 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 4: a million dollars in cash right now under the table 396 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 4: would would probably be in your best interest. If you 397 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:37,160 Speaker 4: took that money and then turned around and didn't give 398 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 4: the contract, it would. 399 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: Still be a huge ethic scandal. You know, like, you 400 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: can't do that. You can't make. 401 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 4: A promise under false pre It is not a get 402 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 4: out of jail free card from corruption in any context 403 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 4: to say well, I just didn't follow through a my 404 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 4: corrupt end of the bargain, which is basically what the 405 00:22:56,560 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 4: Bidens are now saying. 406 00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: Yeah. 407 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 2: I mean, think about the argument is Hunter Biden didn't 408 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 2: actually sell access, he just claimed that he was selling access. Well, 409 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:12,840 Speaker 2: first of all, the appearance of impropriety is a standard 410 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 2: that goes directly to the heart of corruption. The reason 411 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 2: buck we have, for instance, Donor limits when candidates are 412 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 2: running for office. Is not only because we think that, oh, 413 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 2: it may be bad to have politicians influenced by their donors, 414 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:35,440 Speaker 2: but also because the mere appearance that they may be 415 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 2: influenced by their donors undermines confidence in our democratic process. 416 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,919 Speaker 2: So the mere even if you accept which is clearly 417 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 2: a lie, but let's just follow them down the rabbit 418 00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:52,119 Speaker 2: hole and accept their argument. What they are saying is 419 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 2: Hunter Biden claimed falsely that he was going to provide 420 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 2: benefits through his father to these companies. He didn't actually 421 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 2: deliver on that. A son claiming that he can deliver 422 00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 2: behavior by the vice president of the United States to 423 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 2: foreign interest China, Ukraine chief among them, is actually just 424 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 2: as just destructive to the faith in the American political system, 425 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 2: according to established Supreme Court jurisprudence as actually doing it 426 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 2: is because the standard is not only impropriety, it's the 427 00:24:34,080 --> 00:24:37,920 Speaker 2: appearance of impropriety. And by the way, let's not let 428 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:43,040 Speaker 2: Joe Biden off here either, because he should have known 429 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 2: that merely by calling and making these connections with Hunter 430 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: Biden's business partners, he was creating the appearance of impropriety. 431 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 2: So this is not only Hunter taking advantage of his father. Right, 432 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 2: This is Joe Biden knowingly engaging in behavior that was 433 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: a violation. This is why Buck, you know, just to 434 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 2: use the judges for an example, if you have one 435 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 2: hundred shares of Disney stock and you are hearing a 436 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 2: case involving Disney, that's a relatively small amount of dollars 437 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 2: on the table, seven eight thousand dollars at today's price. 438 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 2: Is whatever it is, you have to disclose it, and 439 00:25:22,840 --> 00:25:26,960 Speaker 2: if you don't, you aren't allowed to be considered impartial 440 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 2: in judging that case. Now that's a high standard. That's 441 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 2: for judges. We're talking about tens of millions of dollars 442 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 2: going to the bidens, and somehow the standard isn't the same. 443 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 2: This is beyond the paal, way beyond the pail. 444 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 4: I just I have to say, I think that it'll 445 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 4: be interesting that the way they're lining this whole thing 446 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 4: up is there are no criminal charges. There won't be 447 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 4: any criminal charges. Biden's DOJ comes through once again and 448 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 4: they're just going to focus on Trump and they think 449 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,400 Speaker 4: that just turns into a referendum on Donald Trump. Multiple 450 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 4: federal indictments against him. We think the other one, the 451 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 4: other federal indictment you know, is coming down likely this week, 452 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 4: we don't know. 453 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,359 Speaker 1: And there's also. 454 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 4: You can see this there is not a moment of hesitation, 455 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 4: not a moment of introspection or any sense of shame 456 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 4: at the entire Democrat corporate media apparatus, just shifting on 457 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 4: all this all of a sudden, All of a sudden, 458 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 4: that's oh yeah, okay, so I was talking to him, 459 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,480 Speaker 4: but I mean it wasn't. We've said this along though 460 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,959 Speaker 4: it wasn't. Criminal is the only defense that they are 461 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 4: going to be left with. And you know what determines 462 00:26:43,040 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 4: whether or not it's really criminal, everybody, whether the Attorney 463 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:47,879 Speaker 4: General of the United States will allow her to be 464 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 4: charges brought. Does anyone think that Merrick Garland is going 465 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 4: to allow charges against Joe Biden? I mean, as a 466 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 4: sitting president, I'm not even sure it's possible, but that 467 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 4: he would even recommend such a thing, of course not, 468 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 4: there's no chance of it happening. So this is why 469 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 4: even with the we got smoking guns all over the place. 470 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 4: Now the guns are smoking, but so it was hunter. 471 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 4: But there's not a whole lot that anyone's going to 472 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 4: look at here, I think, and see changes. 473 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:18,160 Speaker 1: Politically as a result of this, because they've. 474 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 4: Already set this up where Trump it's all relative in 475 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 4: this fight, and they've decided that Trump is Trump needs 476 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 4: to go to prison for the rest of his life, 477 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 4: and that's really what they want. I don't know if 478 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 4: they'll get there, God forbid, hopefully they won't. But I 479 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 4: don't know that any of this really changes any of 480 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 4: the politics. I don't think you'll play Here's one we 481 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 4: could come back to this. Do you think this moves 482 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 4: the polls dramatically against Joe Biden. Maybe a couple of points, 483 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 4: But I don't think it's going to be some big 484 00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 4: sea change. 485 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 1: Well. 486 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 2: I think the challenge and the problem, and this is 487 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 2: why I would say impeachment is so necessary is as 488 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: I said, CNNMSNBC, The New York Times, the Washington Post, 489 00:27:56,280 --> 00:28:01,160 Speaker 2: they're carrying water to defend the Bidens and so audience. Remember, 490 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:04,159 Speaker 2: over half of Democrats still believe that the Hunter Biden 491 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 2: laptop was Russian disinformation. If you have half of your 492 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 2: party believing something that is essence has been disproven for 493 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: years now, how far down the rabbit hole can you go? 494 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,320 Speaker 2: If you're starting with the Hunter Biden laptop is Russian disinformation, 495 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 2: you immediately dismiss all of this because this is building 496 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 2: on multiple layers. 497 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:27,120 Speaker 1: Right. 498 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 2: They're so far away from what the truth is that 499 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 2: it's hard for them to acknowledge it, which is why 500 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 2: primetime hearings might might help to convince some persuadable voters 501 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 2: of what's actually going on here. I think, for anyone listening, 502 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 2: if you have a neighbor who annoys you about the 503 00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: need to recycle and have BLM signs out on their 504 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 2: front lawn and has you know, you know, twelve year olds, 505 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 2: a couple of them who mysteriously all of a sudden 506 00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 2: are saying that they have to announce their pronouns and 507 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 2: all that stuff. If you ask that kind of Democrat, 508 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 2: that kind of right in the center of the Democrat base. 509 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 2: If we had video evidence of Joe Biden just straight up, 510 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 2: or any evidence of Joe Biden taking personally money, which 511 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 2: that's the next shoe that could drop here. If they 512 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 2: find the millions put into his account on this, will 513 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 2: that change your mind about Joe Biden. I'm telling you, 514 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: the Democrat in this case would say it's fine. As 515 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 2: long as he can defeat Donald Trump. We don't care. 516 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's where it is, and that's so everyone needs 517 00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 4: to understand that's the environment we're operating in here.

Obviously, if you and your father and 551 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 2: your family or whatever have a business, that's different when 552 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: you're directly in business partners. By the way, I think 553 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 2: that's what was going on with Hunter and Joe. And 554 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: this is kind of interesting. Mark in California, what do 555 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 2: you think about the claim, Oh, they were just calling 556 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,040 Speaker 2: to check on the weather during business meetings. 557 00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 6: Not a chance any loving parent wants to know the 558 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 6: success of their kids and boast about it, let everybody 559 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 6: know how great he's doing. And as a kid who 560 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 6: was in that situation, always have my dad wanted to 561 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 6: know what was going on, but no intrusively. I would 562 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,720 Speaker 6: always reach out to him also for advice and just 563 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 6: to let him know, hey, Dad, I got another promotion, 564 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 6: and then he could go and tell that to the world. 565 00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 6: It's what they're saying out of the White House is 566 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 6: complete bs opposite of what goes on. They want to 567 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 6: be involved, and as a parent now who has two 568 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 6: kids about ready to get into their professional lives, I 569 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,240 Speaker 6: want to make sure I'm given the advice and understanding 570 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 6: what decisions they're making, and again not getting too intrusive 571 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,160 Speaker 6: in their life or getting him mad at me. But 572 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 6: they want to share that stuff because we did the 573 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 6: right job in raising them. And if the Biden's are 574 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 6: so loving, wouldn't that be the same case. 575 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 1: So it's a great point. 576 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: They're actually arguing, thank you for the call, Buck, And 577 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 2: I'm with my three boys down in Atlanta right now. 578 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,600 Speaker 2: I love if I get a chance to brag about 579 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,280 Speaker 2: what they're able to do now they're still young, but 580 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 2: Joe Biden buck simultaneously claims the reason why he is 581 00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 2: involved with Hunter so much is because he's a loving 582 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 2: father and it's important for him to be involved with 583 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 2: his son, and then simultaneously says he knows nothing about 584 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 2: the millions of dollars that his son is making. It 585 00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:52,600 Speaker 2: doesn't add up just based on that, to say nothing 586 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 2: of anybody who's ever been involved in a business meeting. 587 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 2: I've never seen somebody call their dad in a business meeting. 588 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,480 Speaker 1: Also, I do think it worth noting. 589 00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 4: As much as we talk about how Joe Biden is inept, 590 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 4: in decrepit and too old and all of that, I 591 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 4: mean a guy, and some of this was going on 592 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 4: some years ago when he was much more with it 593 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 4: than he is now. He's been a US he's been 594 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,320 Speaker 4: a United States Senator for like over forty years. The 595 00:33:17,360 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 4: guy was vice president for eight years. Does anybody think 596 00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 4: for one second that if they had a dad who 597 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 4: was number two in the executive branch of the United 598 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 4: States Government and had a fifty year career in federal politics, 599 00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 4: that they wouldn't talk to him about business dealings abroad 600 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 4: like that's it's not like it's not like, you know, 601 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 4: Joe Biden is a park ranger. 602 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: No offense to park rangers, but. 603 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 4: You know it's you know, the guy has expertise and 604 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 4: obviously connections that are directly relevant to exactly what Hunter 605 00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 4: Biden was trying to do. 606 00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: It's just there's just no way. But it's almost like 607 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:01,800 Speaker 1: a waste for us. 608 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 4: Anyone who says they weren't talking about businesses lying obviously 609 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 4: also yes, one hundred percent. 610 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,880 Speaker 2: Buck And I say this again as a dad, and 611 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 2: I bet there are a lot of people out there 612 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 2: and dads and moms who can speak to this. I've 613 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 2: been out to dinner, for instance, a lot of times 614 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,359 Speaker 2: for business and I might look down and be like, Oh, 615 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 2: it's bedtime for my kids, or oh, I want to 616 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 2: talk to my wife before she goes to bed or 617 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 2: before the. 618 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 1: Kids go do something. What do you do if you 619 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,879 Speaker 1: want to have a personal call, You. 620 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,240 Speaker 2: Leave the room and go stand out in the hallway, 621 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 2: or you go stand out on the street. Like you 622 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:43,720 Speaker 2: don't have a family conversation typically sitting at the table 623 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 2: right the only reason you would have a call that 624 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: you want everybody to hear is because your dad is 625 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 2: directly involved in the business. Michael and Davenport, Iowa. What 626 00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,000 Speaker 2: do you think about this story of oh, he was 627 00:34:58,040 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 2: just calling about the weather. 628 00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:03,160 Speaker 7: Yeah. No, So the biggest thing I actually work for 629 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,280 Speaker 7: a small company and I see day to day interactions 630 00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,480 Speaker 7: between the dad who owns the company and the two 631 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 7: sons that they do all the running of it. And 632 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,800 Speaker 7: the big thing is is, yeah, they're small talk on 633 00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 7: the company. But the dad even came in. He's like, 634 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,479 Speaker 7: I'm just wanted it. You guys run it, you guys 635 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,760 Speaker 7: do your thing. It would never be a thing where 636 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,560 Speaker 7: the sons call a supplier and like, you know what, 637 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,479 Speaker 7: let me get my dad on the phone. He'll he'll 638 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,800 Speaker 7: talk some sense India. It's like he wants the supplier 639 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 7: would laugh at us. I mean the fact that no 640 00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 7: calls ever can. 641 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 2: It actually makes a great point. It actually demeans your authority. 642 00:35:39,880 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 2: If you're in a business meeting and you're like, let 643 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,279 Speaker 2: me call my daddy and see what he says, it's like, 644 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 2: are you running the business or is your dad? It's 645 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,919 Speaker 2: actually the opposite of in any kind of way legitimizing you. 646 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 1: For most people, right, that's a good pace. 647 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 4: One of the objections are one of the things that 648 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 4: teach people in like aggressive sales training. 649 00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:00,080 Speaker 1: If you've seen the movie boiler Room, they get into. 650 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 4: Is when a guy goes I would buy the stock, 651 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 4: but I got to talk to my wife. It's oh, 652 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 4: I'm sorry, sir. Who makes the decisions here? You know, 653 00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:08,880 Speaker 4: like they love to I got to talk to my 654 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 4: dad first. Well, if he's your business partner, you do, 655 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,360 Speaker 4: that makes sense. But if he's just your dad, Yeah, Clay, 656 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,359 Speaker 4: we know exactly what's going on here, and now it's 657 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,279 Speaker 4: a question of what Republicans will do with it. Will 658 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 4: they impeach, will they move, will they care enough to 659 00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 4: actually take some kind of action? The illegal immigrant situation 660 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:30,839 Speaker 4: New York City, Clay, I want to talk about that. 661 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,319 Speaker 4: It is literally spilling out into the streets. And Bill 662 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 4: O'Reilly's gonna be joining us. 663 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 1: Stick around,
