1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Welcome in everybody to the Tuesday edition of The Clay

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:08,959
Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Sexton Show. Congratulations to the University of

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 1: Indiana Hoosiers on their glorious victory last night. I was

4
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:18,680
Speaker 1: there with Clay watching the National Championship game. Our president,

5
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:23,000
Speaker 1: mister Trump. President Trump was there and it was quite

6
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,320
Speaker 1: a scene. We'll give you some of the highlights from it.

7
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:31,319
Speaker 1: And it was amazing to watch Indiana turn a home

8
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 1: game from Miami into a home game for Indiana, because.

9
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:36,919
Speaker 2: That is what that stadium felt like. It was a

10
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 2: sea of red.

11
00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: Very polite, I said, Indiana fans are all very nice,

12
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 1: very like Smiley, and you know, they turned around. I

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,800
Speaker 1: don't think I realized I'm in Miami Natives, or technically

14
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be all about Miami.

15
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:50,919
Speaker 2: But you all saw that game. I'm sure last night.

16
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 2: It was actually a very good game.

17
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 1: I had mister Clay here explaining to me the various

18
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: players and what was going on. So we had a

19
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: great time with that. It is the beginning of year

20
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 1: two two of the Trump administration because it is the

21
00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: one year anniversary of the inauguration, so year one in

22
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: the books, some great some great wins, on the board

23
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,840
Speaker 1: I think already, which we will be discussing a bit,

24
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: and then some other things that are still certainly major

25
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,600
Speaker 1: challenges to to look at to deal with, and we

26
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: have Clay today one of those. I think that we

27
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: could circle and dive into straightaway Greenland.

28
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: Yes, who would have thought?

29
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: Who would have thought that this place that generally doesn't

30
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,199
Speaker 1: get much in the way of press or thought or

31
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 1: anyone talking about it. It's quite large and quite sparsely inhabited.

32
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 1: Who would have thought that this would become the center

33
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: of an international embrolio?

34
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 2: Well said, thank you, thank you. It is definitely causing

35
00:01:58,600 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: a hullabaloo.

36
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: You have various heads of state who are getting quite huffy,

37
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,680
Speaker 1: and the Wall Street Journal here writing that Trump doubles

38
00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:14,359
Speaker 1: down on Greenland ahead of Davos arrival. He is making it.

39
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 1: He is making it a thing that does not just

40
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: go away. I do believe at some point we might

41
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 1: have to do a show from Greenland and go check

42
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 1: out the Greenlanders ourselves.

43
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,600
Speaker 2: But we'll put a pin in that for now here.

44
00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: If you want to know how Trump feels about the

45
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: whole situation here, it is this is cut too talking

46
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: about why does this belong to the people that it

47
00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:34,400
Speaker 1: has belonged to.

48
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 2: Play two. When you play with.

49
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 3: Any European leaders and dogs they push back on your

50
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 3: Greenland plan.

51
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,239
Speaker 2: Well, I don't think they're going to push back too much,

52
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,400
Speaker 2: but we have.

53
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 4: To have it.

54
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:46,000
Speaker 2: They have to have this done.

55
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 5: They can't protect it Denmark. They're wonderful people, and I

56
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,959
Speaker 5: know the leaders are very good people, but they don't

57
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 5: even go there. And you know, because the boat when

58
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,200
Speaker 5: they're five hundred years ago and then left, that doesn't.

59
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 2: Give you titled property.

60
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 5: So we'll be talking about it with the rus big.

61
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,960
Speaker 2: Moment, Clay.

62
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: He is not backing off this at all. In fact,

63
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: he's making it a front and center issue at Davos.

64
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 6: The prediction markets, which are becoming more and more of

65
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:23,680
Speaker 6: a narrative defining prospect in pretty much all facets of life.

66
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 6: This morning, Buck, I was looking forty seven percent chance

67
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 6: that Trump takes control of some part of the country

68
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 6: of Greenland.

69
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,119
Speaker 2: Now again, that's the way that this is phrased.

70
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 6: At some point in twenty twenty six, basically fifty to

71
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 6: fifty when this all started. Do you remember when we

72
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 6: started talking about this and everybody sort of treated it

73
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 6: as sort of a outlandish joke that was not actually

74
00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:54,720
Speaker 6: in any way likely to occur. Now we have moved

75
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 6: into the could this happen phase, And this is a

76
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 6: lot of times what Trump does, right. He throws something

77
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 6: out there that people think is outrageous, that they think

78
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 6: is outlandish, that they think there is no way it

79
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,360
Speaker 6: could ever happen, and then he just stays manighacally fixated

80
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 6: on it. It remains in his purview, and he keeps

81
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 6: advancing closer and closer to it. And I know he

82
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 6: would probably argue this is a part of the art

83
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 6: of the deal, because if you start with aggressive posturing

84
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 6: that seems highly unlikely, then at some point a middle

85
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 6: ground that would have seemed unlikely starts to feel like

86
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,200
Speaker 6: a compromise position, if that makes sense.

87
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 2: And so.

88
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 6: I don't know exactly how this is going to shake out.

89
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 6: For all the reading that I've done, Buck, the treaty

90
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 6: that we have in place with Greenland right now, which

91
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 6: was primarily enforced and utilized during World War Two, is

92
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 6: actually quite expansive in terms of the rights that it

93
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 6: would give to the United States in terms of military

94
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,239
Speaker 6: bases access to the land. I think what Trump really

95
00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 6: wants though is is complete and total control because he

96
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 6: wants the long running value of the minerals. I think

97
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 6: he's looking at Alaska as the precept when it was

98
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 6: initially ridiculed and now ends up looking like a brilliant decision.

99
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 2: But one of the greatest deals of all time.

100
00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:17,800
Speaker 1: I mean, back in eighteen sixty seven Louisiana purchase probably

101
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 1: the greatest land deal in all history.

102
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:20,800
Speaker 2: I think that's fair to say.

103
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:25,360
Speaker 1: Yes, Sewards Icebox, which is what they called their Seward's folly,

104
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:25,840
Speaker 1: called it both.

105
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I knew he was gonna it was close enough

106
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 2: to the Civil War that I'm.

107
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,919
Speaker 1: Going to say Civil War Clay over here is gonna

108
00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: not gonna let that one's slide.

109
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: But that was also one of the best land deals

110
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 2: ever made.

111
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: And this is this is I think a pretty straightforward

112
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 1: process because here's the problem that the Danes have with

113
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: all this. By the way, they used to call it

114
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 1: Ful Air Base in Greenland. That's the US space base

115
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:55,040
Speaker 1: that's there. I'm sorry, now it's tough thick. Never heard

116
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 1: of it before space base pit Tough space Base, formerly

117
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,359
Speaker 1: Ful Air Base, so it was air I guess it

118
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 1: was an Air Force bace. And now it is a

119
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: space force space. But so we do have a military

120
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: presence there. You've got you know, space surveillance missions for

121
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: Norrad stuff like that. So you've got US air force

122
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: space for civilian contractors. A couple of hundred troops there,

123
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 1: So on a land mask that side, a couple hundred

124
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 1: troops his tiny, tiny situation. He wants sovereignty, to your point,

125
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:25,760
Speaker 1: he wants the ability to do whatever America thinks is

126
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: in its interest there when it comes to defense, when

127
00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 1: it comes to minerals, it comes to you know, there's

128
00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: some people who argue at some point glaciers and access

129
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,679
Speaker 1: to that fresh water could become more interesting and important.

130
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: I think that's quite a ways in the future.

131
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying these are the things that are

132
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: under consideration, and he's pushing this. The Europeans did something

133
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 1: that I thought was silly. And Trump was asked about

134
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 1: this last night. Remember he's at the game, and he

135
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 1: as he does, spoke to spoke to members of the

136
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:59,600
Speaker 1: press yesterday. Here he is this has cut three because

137
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:05,279
Speaker 1: NAT sent token forces to Greenland as some kind of yeah,

138
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: it's ours back off like a brush back pitch, but

139
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 1: it did not have the intended effect Play three.

140
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 3: Curing the arc deructing threat to the boord You why

141
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 3: are you pray about NATO allies thinking that you know

142
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 3: more curs than Greely by hoping military exercises.

143
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,440
Speaker 5: Well, that wasn't a military They sent a few people

144
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 5: and they say they sent them. Nothing to me but

145
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 5: be too guard against Russia. But you know, NATO has

146
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 5: been warning Denmark for about twenty years now, longer than that,

147
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 5: twenty five years, they've been warning dead bark about the

148
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 5: Russian threat. And it's not only Russia, it's also China.

149
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 5: So we'll see what happens. But uh, let's put it

150
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 5: this way, it's gonna be a very interesting Davos.

151
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:53,600
Speaker 1: Very interesting DeVos. By the way, I've never heard that

152
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: phrase before, certainly never heard it from Trump. Uh Clay,

153
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,800
Speaker 1: He's making this the front and center issue you for this,

154
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: this conference going on in Switzerland this week of international

155
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: Who's who and what's what?

156
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 6: Yeah, and look, I don't know if you saw this,

157
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:10,480
Speaker 6: but I know we have the audio because I was

158
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 6: just checking to make sure Gavin Newsom is at Davos

159
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 6: right now, and here is Gavin Newsom. I'll play this

160
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 6: for a sec But first, buck, did you see Emmanuel

161
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:25,240
Speaker 6: McCrone address Davos wearing sunglasses?

162
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 2: This is like the Bono thing.

163
00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 1: Now Bono has some eye condition, they say, so we

164
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 1: have to wear wears sun all the time all the time.

165
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,079
Speaker 1: Is that what this guy is gonna say? Sunglasses? Indoors,

166
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 1: you need an explanation. I did macrone's wife slap him again?

167
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 1: Remember we saw what he was about to get off

168
00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:42,800
Speaker 1: the plane and she grabbed him in the face.

169
00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:44,839
Speaker 2: And they were like, oh, we were just joking, ha ha.

170
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,040
Speaker 2: Maybe mccrone's wife is stronger than people think.

171
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 6: Maybe, so here is Gavin Newsom might have quite the

172
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 6: right hook. Gavin Newsom saying a he's calling out world leaders.

173
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 6: California's governor has traveled to dava cut nineteen.

174
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 2: This was a little bit earlier. Today, it's time.

175
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 7: To get serious and start being complicit. It's time to

176
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,000
Speaker 7: stand tall and firm, have a backbone. I've seen this

177
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 7: in the United States, this supering congress playing both sides.

178
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 7: You know, you say one thing on a text or

179
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 7: a tweet and another publicly shoots time film forrinciples, And

180
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 7: it's time to stand tall, tall and strong, to stand united.

181
00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:27,559
Speaker 2: You make that determination. I don't make that determination. When

182
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,319
Speaker 2: you say study in selected, do you mean just.

183
00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 7: I can't take this complicity people rolling over. I should

184
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 7: have brought up a bunch of mee pads for all

185
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 7: the world leaders. I mean handing out crowns and handing

186
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 7: out I mean, this is pathetic Nobel prizes they are

187
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 7: being given away.

188
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 2: I mean it's just pathetic.

189
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 7: And I hope people understand how pathetic they look.

190
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: There's your Democrat twenty twenty eight nominee. I are there

191
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 1: already bets being placed on this one because I, oh,

192
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 1: you're very compliment with the Democrats side.

193
00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 2: When I saw it.

194
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 6: First of all, Gavin Newsome feels like he's playing evil

195
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,160
Speaker 6: Keanu Reeves. When I hear him talk now, it just

196
00:10:04,240 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 6: sounds like he's an actor pretending with that voice. Maybe

197
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,040
Speaker 6: he's got a little bit more of a cold than normal.

198
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 6: I guarantee you buck that. Gavin Newsom has been furious

199
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 6: that Tim Walls and Jacob Frye in Minneapolis have managed

200
00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,880
Speaker 6: to push themselves into the chief opposition to Donald Trump,

201
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 6: and they have knocked him off the newspaper front pages

202
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 6: outside of the opens of television shows. And I think

203
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 6: he made a calculated decision, by the way, saying world

204
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 6: leaders are.

205
00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 2: In kneepads, it's a visual that.

206
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: Even for Evil Keanu coming off the slopes where by

207
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 1: the way, he's a triple black diamond guy.

208
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 6: Uh, even for Gavin Newsom, that's a pretty aggressive take.

209
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,040
Speaker 6: And I will say there's a lot of public condemnation

210
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 6: from Donald Trump from European leaders, and they say all

211
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,720
Speaker 6: sorts of things, but he's not wrong about when they

212
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 6: actually see him face to face, there's never any opposition

213
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 6: that is brought to bear direct if that makes any sense.

214
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 6: So I'm curious if that might change at all at Davos,

215
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,680
Speaker 6: whether we're going to get me fireworks starting tomorrow.

216
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:10,760
Speaker 1: But it's apparently pronounced Tull Air Force Base, which I

217
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,679
Speaker 1: didn't know. But some of these, some of these pronunciations

218
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 1: because their localized, can be very tough, like in Turkish

219
00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 1: it's injur lick, not insur lick.

220
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 2: So you know, I have no hope.

221
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 6: To pronounce any of these words. Yeah, that's the big

222
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 6: Turkish air base we got going on.

223
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: So anyway, Yeah, I'm I'm I gree I guess they

224
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: speak Greenlandish or something. The native I'm not talking about

225
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:35,160
Speaker 1: Obviously there's people there that speak English and they speak Danish,

226
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:38,679
Speaker 1: but I think that they must have a native the

227
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 1: real the people of Greenland, if you're talking about the

228
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:47,200
Speaker 1: overall like population there are essentially like what we would

229
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,440
Speaker 1: think of as Eskimos. And I know that the Eskimo

230
00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 1: is one, and there's Inuit, and there's all these other

231
00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: and our our Alaska affiliates and our listeners, you guys

232
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 1: know all this stuff. I don't, But there, that's what

233
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,520
Speaker 1: they are. They're like a sort of a native people's mostly.

234
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 1: So this also raises the question though of if they

235
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: want to go, who's to say no? This is really

236
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 1: the fundamental question that I think Trump raises here, which is, Look,

237
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 1: I don't think Trump is he's posturing a little bit.

238
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: We're not sending in a marine expeditionary force to like

239
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 1: seize Nook, which is the capital city. Okay, we're not. Yes,

240
00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,800
Speaker 1: maybe I'm pronouncing that one wrong too. I'm working on

241
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,760
Speaker 1: my Greenland dish. But we're not going to do that.

242
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,120
Speaker 1: But we are going to make a deal, or we're

243
00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: going to negotiate a deal. That's what Trump is saying.

244
00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: There's only fifty thousand people here. This isn't that hard. Yeah,

245
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: fifty thousand people. This is like a this is a

246
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,000
Speaker 1: small mayor's race kind of election in America. This is

247
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,880
Speaker 1: not some big challenge in terms of if these people play,

248
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 1: if they want sovereign, you know, if they want to

249
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 1: take their sovereignty and put it into America's hands.

250
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 2: It's some kind of an agreement. Who is Europe to say.

251
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,040
Speaker 6: No, they can't, And I mean, I think that's where

252
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 6: this negotiation is going to go. There is an opportunity

253
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 6: potentially for each of those natives of Greenland to be

254
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 6: paid just straightforwardly in a a certain dollar figure. I

255
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 6: don't know what it is, two hundred K, one hundred

256
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:15,439
Speaker 6: k US.

257
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 2: Maybe they want gold.

258
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 6: And if they vote to allow themselves to be connected

259
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,600
Speaker 6: to the United States, they've become a territory. And look,

260
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 6: the territorial law is quite clear. I'm a lawyer still

261
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,080
Speaker 6: in the US Virgin Islands territory. You've talked about Guam.

262
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,200
Speaker 6: I didn't know that territorial law would necessarily be that useful.

263
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 6: But United States Virgin Islands is the last place that

264
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 6: the US purchased with gold, twenty five million dollars in

265
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 6: gold in nineteen seventeen, and so there is historical precedent

266
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,199
Speaker 6: and court law that deals with how territorial law is applied,

267
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 6: and Greenland would clearly be able to fit within that category.

268
00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

269
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 1: It's just interesting me as well, because you have these

270
00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 1: Europeans are saying Greenland is not for sale. There's a

271
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:02,720
Speaker 1: bunch of guys hundreds and hundreds of miles away in

272
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,160
Speaker 1: a different continent, to different people, a different you know,

273
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: says who Yeah, I think it's now They could say, oh, well,

274
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: under agreement with the EU. Okay, well, Trump is saying,

275
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,240
Speaker 1: let's amend that agreement. Let's amend that agreement based upon

276
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 1: the Well, look, if it's very clear the Greenland, the

277
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 1: Greenlanders not much. I think I did get right. I

278
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 1: was gonna say, the green Landians, I'm all about. What

279
00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:29,119
Speaker 1: is Minneapolitans? Bah way, no one, no one from Minneapolis

280
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: calls himself a Minneapolitan. We got absolutely deluged with people

281
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 1: saying that that was a totally made up, uh.

282
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,600
Speaker 2: Gossip, Oh gosh, Mediapolitan. No way.

283
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 6: By the way, as we go to break a little

284
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 6: bit of breaking news for you guys, Trump is going

285
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 6: to join a White House press briefing on the one

286
00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:49,440
Speaker 6: year anniversary of his inauguration with Caroline Levitt in about

287
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:50,760
Speaker 6: forty minutes from now.

288
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: So I bet that.

289
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 6: We will be getting a lot of news from that,

290
00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 6: and maybe we'll go take it live as well.

291
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:58,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, the Trumpster where I think, I think that's a

292
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: very high probability going to be hearing them live here

293
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 1: on the show.

294
00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:02,080
Speaker 2: All right.

295
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: The California gold Rush is a rich part of our

296
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 1: nation's history, the stories of people going west to seek

297
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,239
Speaker 1: their fortune. There have been books about this, movies, TV shows.

298
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 1: But now that's cool, right, It's not what owning gold

299
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,520
Speaker 1: is about in twenty twenty six. It's not a get

300
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,880
Speaker 1: rich quick tactic. You're not out there in some stream

301
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,960
Speaker 1: panning for it yourself. This is a smart financial strategy

302
00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:25,560
Speaker 1: for diversification, taking a long term view of how to

303
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 1: have a store of wealth and that can actually grow

304
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:33,480
Speaker 1: in value over time. Look, here's some facts, very straightforward.

305
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: Last year, gold's up sixty percent. You may say, okay,

306
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: well that's just one year. Over the last twenty years,

307
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 1: gold is up seven hundred percent. So if you invested

308
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,720
Speaker 1: twenty years ago, you would be up over seven x

309
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: in dollar value to that gold. This is why Birch

310
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,720
Speaker 1: Gold Group wants you to check out gold today. This

311
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:55,440
Speaker 1: is about the long term. It's your turn to buy

312
00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:58,160
Speaker 1: some gold. Until February first. If you're a first time

313

331
00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 6: Welcome in our number two Clay Travis buck Sexton show.

332
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,160
Speaker 6: We are awaiting President Trump and Caroline Levitt on the

333
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:03,360
Speaker 6: one year anniversary of Trump two point zero. What has

334
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,520
Speaker 6: the first year accomplished? What do we think about that

335
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 6: Trump is now in the communication the sales pitch aspect

336
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 6: of his presidency as we move towards what will frankly

337
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:17,959
Speaker 6: be the last election that is in many ways a

338
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 6: referendum directly on President Trump's leadership after from twenty fifteen

339
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 6: when he came down the escalator for the first time

340
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 6: to twenty twenty six, the Trump era of effectively eleven years. Now,

341
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,400
Speaker 6: you can say twenty twenty eight will be potentially for

342
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 6: the Republican candidate, if it is JD. Vance, if it

343
00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 6: is Marco Rubio, somewhat of a referendum of Trump himself,

344
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 6: but he will not be on the ballot in any

345
00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 6: way in twenty twenty eight. So the last real time

346
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 6: that Trump is has a referendum on his leadership, on

347
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,480
Speaker 6: his presidency will be the midterms. And so we are

348
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 6: now into the sell the job that you have done

349
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,919
Speaker 6: stage of Trump two point zero and I mentioned these stats,

350
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,960
Speaker 6: but I want to hit you with him right off

351
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,040
Speaker 6: the top here because I do think that the challenge

352
00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,679
Speaker 6: is making everyone aware of the promises that he has

353
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 6: delivered on.

354
00:18:13,640 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 2: And I would say.

355
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 6: Number one, the most significant accomplishment of President Trump, buck

356
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 6: is the secure border. And it's so successful that nobody

357
00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,680
Speaker 6: even talks about the border anymore. So for a decade

358
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 6: we talked about, Hey, we should build a wall, Hey

359
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 6: we should have a secure border. Biden opens the border,

360
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 6: everybody comes across, ten million plus people. Trump gets in

361
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 6: one month later, we have the most secure border in

362
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 6: the history of the United States. The second thing that

363
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 6: I would say is probably the most significant of his

364
00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 6: accomplishment so far is record high stock prices. And you

365
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 6: could say, oh, that really only impacts rich people. That's

366
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 6: not true. With four oh one k's huge percentages of

367
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 6: the American public, particularly Republican voters, have exposure to the

368
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,720
Speaker 6: stock market in some form or fashion, So record high

369
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 6: stock prices is is super important. I would say the

370
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 6: third most important thing he has done buck four point

371
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,600
Speaker 6: three percent GDP at the end of the third quarter.

372
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:09,880
Speaker 6: There is a very good chance that we are going

373
00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,280
Speaker 6: to be at five percent plus for the fourth quarter

374
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,120
Speaker 6: and on into twenty twenty six. Inflation in the wake

375
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,920
Speaker 6: of tariffs did not skyrocket. In fact, it has continued

376
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,600
Speaker 6: to come down four year lows going all the way back.

377
00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,080
Speaker 6: I believe to March of twenty twenty one two point

378
00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 6: six percent core inflation. Record murder decline. No one is

379
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 6: talking about it. One of the biggest murder declines we

380
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 6: have ever seen in many different cities out there, particularly

381
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 6: the cities that President Trump has surged federal support. The

382
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,040
Speaker 6: most four I would say six most impressive thing record

383
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 6: fentanyl death decline. That is, overdoses poisonings related to drugs

384
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 6: have collapsed. Mortgage rates down seven percent and mortgage rates

385
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 6: down one percent from over seven percent, and gas prices

386
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,400
Speaker 6: are at a four year low. Those are eight things

387
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 6: that I think President Trump has accomplished and could sell.

388
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 2: Now.

389
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,919
Speaker 6: There's also a lot of international affairs, this situation with Israel, Gaza,

390
00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,360
Speaker 6: but I'm just focused right now on those eight things.

391
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 6: America first, the America Agenda, not even getting into Venezuela

392
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 6: and not getting into the settlement, the peace process in Gaza.

393
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:19,119
Speaker 6: All those things are very consequential, but just in the

394
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 6: United States, what is changing in your life? All eight

395
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:25,879
Speaker 6: of those things. I put up a poll question asking Buck,

396
00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 6: what grade would you give people? Would you give President Trump?

397
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 6: And eight hundred two eight two two eight A two

398
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 6: You can give us a talkback on this. I'm hitting

399
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 6: retweet on this right now. So if you want to

400
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 6: go vote in the Twitter poll, what grade would you

401
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 6: give Donald Trump's first year in office? Forty seven percent

402
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:47,439
Speaker 6: of you say A, thirty four percent of you say B,

403
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:52,280
Speaker 6: thirteen percent of you say C, and six percent of

404
00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 6: you say D or F. In terms of what the

405
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,679
Speaker 6: impact is, Buck, I would give him an A. I

406
00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:03,919
Speaker 6: bet you would give him an A. But I'm curious

407
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,120
Speaker 6: to hear from people. I just laid out those eight

408
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,679
Speaker 6: different things that I think are all super consequential and

409
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,919
Speaker 6: important that are evidence of the success that he has

410
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 6: had in year one.

411
00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 2: You know.

412
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: I just also think there's such a difference in a

413
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 1: lot of the conversation among Trump's supporters first time around

414
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 1: one year in and I mean for people who were

415
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: as pro Trump as a guess voted for him, love

416
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: the guy, I love what he's trying to do for

417
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 1: the country. There was a lot of frustration over staff.

418
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 1: Who's he got in place? Are they on board? That's

419
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,399
Speaker 1: important too. There was a lot of Oh, it's not

420
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,720
Speaker 1: his fault the staff. You don't hear any of that. Now, Yes,

421
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 1: it's just a totally different and this is just marking

422
00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:50,159
Speaker 1: the progress I'm saying, marking the transformation of honestly, the

423
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:54,200
Speaker 1: experience level that Trump as commander in chief, as well

424
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,680
Speaker 1: as the people around him have had.

425
00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 2: We have very little.

426
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 8: Now.

427
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,439
Speaker 1: Look, there's always gonna be people who are who don't like,

428
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 1: you know, what happened at at you know, pick your department,

429
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 1: or they think that this could be different, but there

430
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 1: isn't this.

431
00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,040
Speaker 9: You know, hey, it's not Trump's fault. It's the fault

432
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,000
Speaker 9: of these people. Are that people that didn't do this thing.

433
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,040
Speaker 9: We're not wasting any time with that because overall the

434
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 9: agenda is being implemented, is being pursued. You know, you

435
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 9: have to give credit to the people that are the

436
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:30,320
Speaker 9: main implement tours, whether it's at any of these different agencies,

437
00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 9: it's at State, it's at Obviously, the funniest thing with

438
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 9: Marco Rubio these days is all the memes about how

439
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,119
Speaker 9: he's got fifteen different jobs, and you know, you have

440
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 9: a lot of people around him who have stepped up.

441
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 9: So the conversation is different and it's now just how

442
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 9: do we keep it going instead of okay, we got

443
00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 9: to have a big change in course here, like does

444
00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 9: anything even? Remember what did Rex Tillerson do his first

445
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:51,920
Speaker 9: year Secretary of State?

446
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:52,879
Speaker 2: Nobody knows.

447
00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: Didn't last long, didn't work, wasn't a good thing, Rubio.

448
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 1: You see what he's been up to. And obviously he's

449
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 1: a long long standing Republican fixture now in the Senate

450
00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,960
Speaker 1: and on Foreign Relations Committee, et cetera. But these are

451
00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 1: people who understand what the Trump mission is and are

452
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 1: are getting it done day in and day out. So

453
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 1: I've got to say it's it's been a great first year.

454
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean there aren't There's always going to be

455
00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 1: areas of improvement. There's always going to be some criticism

456
00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,720
Speaker 1: that I think is necessary to help the team get better.

457
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 1: But man, it's just a world of difference. We're playing

458
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,480
Speaker 1: a lot of play. We're playing so much defense back

459
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: in meet we you know, the Trump voters playing so

460
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:38,920
Speaker 1: much defense back in twenty seventeen into twenty eighteen.

461
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 2: On the Russia collusion crazy.

462
00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:46,639
Speaker 1: Yes, it completely consumed the media, news, the media cycle,

463
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:50,240
Speaker 1: day after day after day, all a lie. And yes,

464
00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: it's to Trump's credit that he battled through all of

465
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,199
Speaker 1: that and then all the other stuff. They threw it

466
00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 1: in and got a second term. But it it, unfortunately,

467
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:03,600
Speaker 1: was was pretty success in slowing down and sabotaging the agenda.

468
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,360
Speaker 1: Turn year one, Term one, a lot of Russia collusion garbage.

469
00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think your point there on staff continuity is

470
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 6: hugely important, because, yes, there have been conflict, as there

471
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 6: always is. People argue for what they believe in, people

472
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 6: disagree with them, They go back and forth. Nobody's gotten

473
00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 6: forced out.

474
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 2: No one in the.

475
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 6: Entire first year did Trump say, you know what, I

476
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 6: made a poor choice here. I'm going to accede to

477
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,199
Speaker 6: some of the smoke, some of the fire, some of

478
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:38,800
Speaker 6: the attention on these individual picks. Now, that doesn't mean

479
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 6: that he's not going to have staff turnover. He certainly

480
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:44,400
Speaker 6: is as you move into year two, as you move

481
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 6: into year three, people get burned out. That's natural no

482
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,040
Speaker 6: matter who the president is.

483
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,919
Speaker 2: But you remember this. They really went after Trump on

484
00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 2: his inability to have a.

485
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:58,159
Speaker 6: Consistent managerial cores in the first Trump administration, and they

486
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,359
Speaker 6: were constantly shifting in and out of people Man with

487
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 6: James Blair, with Steven Miller, with Susie Wiles. The chief

488
00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 6: of Staff Corps has remained very, very consistent, and then

489
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 6: you look at the entire cabinet, everybody, it seems, is

490
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 6: in pretty decent shape. As we move into year two

491
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 6: now again people are going to decide this is too

492
00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 6: much work. I need a little bit more life work

493
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 6: life balance. That's a natural in the White House because

494
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 6: it is such an all encompassing job. But in terms

495
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 6: of the media being able to browbeat Trump into making

496
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 6: changes in his personnel, it hasn't happened. And I actually

497
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,600
Speaker 6: think if you look at Hegseth, jd Vance, Marco Rubio,

498
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 6: and Trump, in terms of those four supremely important positions,

499
00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:42,919
Speaker 6: I'm not sure that we have actually been in a

500
00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 6: stronger position as a country than having all of those

501
00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 6: individuals involved right now. So I would give an a

502
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 6: You guys can weigh in eight hundred and two two

503
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 6: two eight A two. People are not always going to

504
00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:56,879
Speaker 6: agree with everything the President did. But I saw the

505
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,399
Speaker 6: Wall Street Journal. I think it was came out ninety

506
00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 6: two percent of Trump's voters support his presidency so far,

507
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 6: so they've tried to sell this idea of oh Trump's

508
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:10,400
Speaker 6: bases leaving him. Oh trump voters are unhappy. I don't

509
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 6: think that's remotely I'm.

510
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 2: Gonna tell you this. I had to gear up for this,

511
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:14,720
Speaker 2: you know, after the cause.

512
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 1: Again, we're marking the one year of Trump getting sworn

513
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:21,120
Speaker 1: in for the second time. One year anniversary today, So

514
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: the start of year two of term two is today.

515
00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: And I remember after the huge win and just their

516
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,760
Speaker 1: the huge the enormous relief, thinking to myself and how

517
00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:31,160
Speaker 1: we were going to have to deal with this if

518
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:33,720
Speaker 1: it came to it, which is this isn't term one,

519
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,920
Speaker 1: like there's no learning on the job, there's no Oh,

520
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,400
Speaker 1: trust him, he'll get it right eventually. This time around

521
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,680
Speaker 1: had to be prepared to say it is not. If

522
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: he wasn't pursuing the agenda on something that was promised,

523
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 1: or if he was making you know, personnel decisions that

524
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 1: were really counterproductive, we were going to have to hold

525
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 1: that to account, and we will if that happens in

526
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 1: the future. But I look at term one and I'm like,

527
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,600
Speaker 1: or year one rather and thetting it done. They truly are,

528
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 1: and we're not mired in defending against the same media

529
00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 1: nonsense with Russia collusion and then the prosecutions and all

530
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:10,919
Speaker 1: this other stuff they're thrown at Trump.

531
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 2: You see what is cape what Trump and his team.

532
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 1: Are capable of doing without, like I said, all the

533
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:21,040
Speaker 1: artificial sabotage of the media and the Democrat Party weaponizing

534
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 1: the deep state against him.

535
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,719
Speaker 6: If I were going to point to one thing that

536
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,760
Speaker 6: was not handled well, it would be Fambondi and Epstein,

537
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:30,119
Speaker 6: like if you gave me a magic wand and you

538
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 6: said you can go back, and man.

539
00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 2: We said that.

540
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:33,880
Speaker 1: I thought she was gonna I thought she was gonna

541
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 1: get fired, and I said it here. I thought they

542
00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 1: were going to tell her that, you know, enough's enough.

543
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 6: And even Susie Wilds, chief of staff, came out and said, yeah,

544
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 6: we really screwed that. The fact that she said the

545
00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:44,880
Speaker 6: files were on her desk, the fact that they had

546
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,040
Speaker 6: those influencers walk in with the finders, and they still

547
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 6: have to think that's the biggest unforced era of the first year.

548
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 1: They still have to get those files out. By the way,

549
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,200
Speaker 1: we haven't forgotten. And you know that people say put

550
00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: more pressure on them, we can, but I don't run

551
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,199
Speaker 1: any of these agencies, is Clay. There needs to be

552
00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 1: more more release of that information out there, and I

553
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 1: think that that is coming, but it is too slow.

554
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,560
Speaker 1: But there's that, and then there's these other things that

555
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,160
Speaker 1: we're talking about, the economy of the border, national security,

556
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 1: not being involved in stupid wars. I mean, these are

557
00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: very very big things that affect all of us UH

558
00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 1: and and I think that on those areas, those issues,

559
00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: it has been really strong by the way Scott Besson,

560
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 1: who I think has been the UH, I think has

561
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,680
Speaker 1: been the out I think Clay you could say that

562
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: Scott Besson outkicked his coverage or has certainly outperformed expectations

563
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: for what he'd be able to do.

564
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot.

565
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: Look, I didn't know who he was before Trump made

566
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,160
Speaker 1: him Tasury Secretary. I don't think many people did.

567
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 4: UH.

568
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,479
Speaker 2: So here he is. I think he's done a very

569
00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 2: good job. Here. We got two big issues that he's tackling.

570
00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 5: Here.

571
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: Let's talk first about the tariffs. Here he is saying

572
00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: that he doesn't think Clay they're going to strike down

573
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 1: the President's signature economc policy. This is sixteen hit it.

574
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 10: I think it's very unlikely that the Supreme Court is

575
00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 10: going to strike down a president's signature economic policy. It

576
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 10: didn't early on with the ACA also known as Obamacare.

577
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,200
Speaker 2: The reinforced that recently.

578
00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:22,600
Speaker 4: And the real problem here is President Trump has used

579
00:29:22,800 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 4: a EPA for negotiating leverage for geopolitics in emergency situations.

580
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 4: If we look back, the first EPA terrorists were finanel tariffs,

581
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 4: so on Mexico, on Canada, on China, and if Finnanehl

582
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 4: is not a national emergency, I don't know what was.

583
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,480
Speaker 6: All right, I'm nervous about this one, Bock. I think

584
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,160
Speaker 6: the Supreme Court is going to strike down some elements

585
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 6: of President Trump. And I appreciate the fact that Scott

586
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 6: Besson is making that argument because that is his job

587
00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,520
Speaker 6: and he should be advocating for the president's perspective. So

588
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 6: I don't begrudge anybody advocating in that way. I think

589
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 6: this is one where the President's going to get a

590
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:06,520
Speaker 6: pushback from the Supreme Court, and they are going to have.

591
00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 2: They're going to have.

592
00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:14,360
Speaker 6: A really complicated situation here. We keep waiting for the

593
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,640
Speaker 6: OFFICIALFS following Shannon Breem this morning, because I thought we

594
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 6: might be getting the tariff Supreme Court case. My concern

595
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 6: is that they're going to slap him back some on this.

596
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 6: We'll see, but I think it could be a major pushback.

597
00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 6: We'll talk about that. By the way, White House supposed

598
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 6: to start this press briefing any minute now, so we

599
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 6: are certainly going to follow that, and we will take

600
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,960
Speaker 6: some of your calls in some of your talkbacks as well.

601
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:41,880
Speaker 6: But I want to tell you, are you trying to

602
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,920
Speaker 6: preserve your family memories to ensure that they are digitized

603
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 6: for everyone into the future. Are you the repository of

604
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:50,880
Speaker 6: your family's memories. Do you have a ton of pictures?

605
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 6: Do you have the old VHS tapes? Do you have

606
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 6: the eight milimeter film reels? Do you have everything? Do

607
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 6: you put on the slides and show the kids and say, hey,

608
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 6: this was great grandma, this was mom and dad when

609
00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:05,240
Speaker 6: they were little kids. Do you have all those? Have

610
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 6: you preserved them forever in digital files? If you haven't,

611
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 6: it's a good New Year's resolution. I went to Chattanooga, Tennessee,

612
00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 6: my mom's hometown, where Legacy Box is based. I walked

613
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,800
Speaker 6: through their warehouse, through their factories where they do all

614
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 6: this preservation. They do a remarkable job, and trust me

623

Speaker 6: these great memories, having them in their attic and forgetting

625

Speaker 6: as we begin the second year of Trump. I saw

639
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 6: this morning I was reading Axios, Buck, and I know

640
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 6: there were probably left wingers out there who just had

641
00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:40,040
Speaker 6: tears running down their cheeks. We still have over one

642
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 6: thousand days left of Trump two point zero, So this

00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:55,080
Speaker 6: still to come. It doesn't mean that people are not

646
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 6: still behaving in a crazy fashion on the View. In fact,

647
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,640
Speaker 6: they may have gotten they had. I saw this this

648
00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,280
Speaker 6: morning as I was getting ready for the show, Buck,

649
00:33:03,320 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 6: they had Pam Greer on. Pam Greer was a star

650
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 6: Foxy Brown of the so called like sort of black

651
00:33:10,880 --> 00:33:14,720
Speaker 6: ployitation movies of the sixties and seventies. She was born

652
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:17,280
Speaker 6: in nineteen forty nine. She was on The View talking

653
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 6: with Sonny hostin This is Crazy. Listen to her say

654
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 6: that when she was growing up in Columbus, Ohio, lynchings

655
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 6: were so common for her that her mom had to

656
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 6: tell her not to look at the dead black bodies

657
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,640
Speaker 6: that had been lynched by white people.

658
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:35,719
Speaker 2: This is on the View earlier today.

659
00:33:35,880 --> 00:33:38,760
Speaker 8: Listen, the military wouldn't allow black families to live on

660
00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:40,400
Speaker 8: the base, so you had to live in an apartment,

661
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 8: and you couldn't take a bus, you couldn't afford a car.

662
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,440
Speaker 8: You walk, your dad's walked to the base. And who

663
00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,320
Speaker 8: Sometimes we would go from you know, tree shade to

664
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:53,520
Speaker 8: Shaye to get back to the apartment. My brother and

665
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,600
Speaker 8: I my mom with bags, and my mom would go,

666
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 8: don't look, don't look, don't look. She'd pull us away

667
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 8: because there's someone hanging from a tree. And they have

668
00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:06,240
Speaker 8: a memorial for it now where you can see where

669
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 8: people were and left, and it triggers me today.

670
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:14,280
Speaker 2: Okay buck.

671
00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 6: According to Endwoken, this great Twitter account to follow out there.

672
00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 6: The last lynching in Ohio happened in nineteen eleven. Pam

673
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,680
Speaker 6: Greer was born in nineteen forty nine, so she went

674
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 6: on the view. No One pushed back and said that's

675
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:34,200
Speaker 6: a totally untrue story, but that lynchings were so common.

676
00:34:34,280 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 6: She said in Columbus, Ohio, that she had to not

677
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,720
Speaker 6: look at the trees as she walked back to her home.

678
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 6: I mean, what do you think here, like how has

679
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,720
Speaker 6: she convinced herself that this was true. How does Sunny

680
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,360
Speaker 6: Hostin not push back? I mean, this is scary.

681
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 1: Honestly, they everyone on the left will recognize that victim

682
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 1: status is something that is very desirable because when you're

683
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 1: a victim and you tell a victim narrative about yourself

684
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,840
Speaker 1: and all of the things in your life that haven't

685
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: gone the way that you want them to are somebody

686
00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:17,120
Speaker 1: else's fault, and you also have a claim about how

687
00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: it is their fault, therefore they should do more for you,

688
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 1: or it is their fault, therefore something else should be

689
00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:27,080
Speaker 1: made to happen for you. And because the left is

690
00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,239
Speaker 1: so in my opinion, the left is so I guess

691
00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:31,880
Speaker 1: everything I say here is my opinion. But you know

692
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: what I mean, deeply enmeshed in this ideology, like this

693
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: faith of victimhood that they have. They don't even recognize

694
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,919
Speaker 1: absurd exaggerate, Like they're just like, oh, well, that's that's

695
00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: her story of victimhood, So like I have to respect that,

696
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 1: you know what, that's her lived experience, even though that

697
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: wasn't her lived experience. But you know, the mentality is,

698
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 1: however you're going to describe your oppression narrative must be

699
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: accepted by others because oppression narratives are so important to

700
00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: people who are of the leftist mindset. And I actually

701
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: believe it's like structurally in the in the working of

702
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:13,799
Speaker 1: the mind left and right political sense is. I think

703
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: it's much more in the brain than it is than

704
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: a lot of people think about, or a lot of

705
00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,719
Speaker 1: people will get into, because I just can't imagine approaching

706
00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: the world the way so many of these people do,

707
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 1: whether it's the maniac screaming at ice officers in the streets,

708
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,719
Speaker 1: or it's this kind of washed up actress saying that

709
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 1: she saw, you know, lynchings in the trees by her home.

710
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 1: I mean, they're just all used in making stuff up

711
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 1: to first the purposes of self pity clay that I

712
00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:42,520
Speaker 1: don't think any of them want to call anyone else

713
00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,799
Speaker 1: out because this is so common, Does that make sense?

714
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:46,000
Speaker 2: Like this is like this, this.

715
00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,520
Speaker 1: Is like in the nineties, there was like, oh, I've

716
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 1: experienced so much racism. You'd hear this from people, particularly

717
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 1: people from communities of color, not all of them leftists.

718
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 1: I'm talking about people that would make these kinds of claims,

719
00:36:57,040 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 1: and you'd be like what racism you experienced, Like, well,

720
00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:01,080
Speaker 1: there was a detect if you have followed me once

721
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: in a store, you know, we'd always hear this, yeah, And.

722
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 9: He'd be like, well, but were you actually followed and

723
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:07,359
Speaker 9: how do you know he.

724
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 2: Was a detective?

725
00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,719
Speaker 1: And I'd be like, you know, I've actually been, like,

726
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 1: had people look at me before when I was younger,

727
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:14,880
Speaker 1: and I thought that I might be like, are you

728
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:16,640
Speaker 1: sure it was because of your your skin color?

729
00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:17,200
Speaker 2: Are you sure that?

730
00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 6: The point is everyone's allowed to play this game on

731
00:37:20,960 --> 00:37:22,839
Speaker 6: the left, So no one's going to call this out,

732
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 6: no matter how absurd it is, because in this case,

733
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 6: by the way, honestly, what do you you think Sonny

734
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 6: Houston even has any idea of when the last lynching

735
00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 6: was in this country or even how few there were

736
00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:40,839
Speaker 6: relative to the overall population. Right, In other words, if

737
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 6: you go back and you study that entire era, which

738
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:48,400
Speaker 6: was awful and uh did exist, right, But this idea

739
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:52,800
Speaker 6: that it was so common that people alive today would

740
00:37:52,840 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 6: have any recollection of it at all. You would have

741
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 6: to be one hundred years old basically to have any

742
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:03,280
Speaker 6: true recollection of an incident like that. And Pam Greer

743
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,319
Speaker 6: is nowhere near that age. Again, the last lynching in

744
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:10,719
Speaker 6: Ohio happened thirty eight years before she was born, two generations.

745
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:13,080
Speaker 1: Play Clay, if you really want to get people fired up,

746
00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: talk about how most lynchings didn't involve black people at all.

747
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:21,480
Speaker 2: Well, that is historical fact. I just want to be

748
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:22,080
Speaker 2: very clear.

749
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:27,160
Speaker 1: Most lynchings in this country were not of black Americans.

750
00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,440
Speaker 1: That is a fact. But you hear that, people, Oh,

751
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: they get very upset. This is It's like saying that

752
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:36,800
Speaker 1: there were former slaves in the South who owned slaves.

753
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 2: Yes, themselves. These are other facts. These are facts historically.

754
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,439
Speaker 2: Go check them out. Please fact check me if I'm wrong.

755
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,680
Speaker 1: But Clay, that's a very uncomfortable reality for some people

756
00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 1: because the narrative is so powerful.

757
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:52,080
Speaker 6: Well, not only that, it's if you ask any questions

758
00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:54,680
Speaker 6: at all about it. To your point, if you say,

759
00:38:55,200 --> 00:38:57,799
Speaker 6: are you sure that was racism? Like I lived through this,

760
00:38:58,200 --> 00:38:59,840
Speaker 6: and I was talking about earlier. We were at the

761
00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,680
Speaker 6: Indiana Miami game and just how much patriotism it felt

762
00:39:03,719 --> 00:39:06,480
Speaker 6: like in that stadium as they sang the national anthem,

763
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 6: put Trump on the scoreboard, everybody cheered. But it wasn't

764
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 6: very long ago people were taking knees, and there were

765
00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:16,280
Speaker 6: players coming out and saying, oh, I was racially profiled

766
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,360
Speaker 6: to your point, And I remember one of the players

767
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,160
Speaker 6: saying I was racially profiled at, you know, a Las

768
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,839
Speaker 6: Vegas casino. I said, that seems kind of unlikely. I mean,

769
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 6: if you pointed, if you said to me, hey, what

770
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 6: place in America has more cameras per capita than a

771
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,399
Speaker 6: casino because they're trying to catch everybody to make sure

772
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 6: you're not cheating at cards, to make sure you're whether

773
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,760
Speaker 6: or not you actually won your your you know, slot

774
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,040
Speaker 6: machine game, all those things. Video comes out and it

775
00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:47,879
Speaker 6: wasn't actually true at all, right, as often is the case,

776
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 6: and you've talked about with BLM basically dying because now

777
00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 6: everybody has a video of the police officers.

778
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:56,439
Speaker 2: And what we overwhelmingly see, they're pretty good.

779
00:39:56,480 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 1: Now, now we get into this, so then by the numbers, okay,

780
00:39:58,920 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 1: so this is not going to be what qualifies as

781
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: a lynching. Now, this is if you consider a posse

782
00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:11,040
Speaker 1: formed of individuals anywhere engaged in what is considered frontier justice,

783
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 1: that hung somebody outside of normal judicial procedure, I would,

784
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:17,520
Speaker 1: I mean I think that. So now it's what is

785
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 1: what is your definition of a lynching? The numbers are

786
00:40:21,600 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 1: roughly seventy thirty black victims white victims. Is I'm pulling

787
00:40:25,640 --> 00:40:28,520
Speaker 1: this up here, but now you have to get into well,

788
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 1: what's considered a lynching because this is just this is

789
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:35,920
Speaker 1: excluding anything considered frontier justice. Yeah, so now you get

790
00:40:35,960 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: into well so, but but then how are you separating

791
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:44,759
Speaker 1: out a lynch mob from frontier justice. I guess it's

792
00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,360
Speaker 1: the presence. So basically, if there was a judicial procedure

793
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,520
Speaker 1: that they went around, they're saying that is not But

794
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,399
Speaker 1: if you consider non judicial proceedings on the frontier where

795
00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:57,960
Speaker 1: people were hanged to also be a lynching, then yes,

796
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,600
Speaker 1: there are more lynchings of individuals who.

797
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:01,000
Speaker 2: Are not black.

798
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,080
Speaker 1: But even even by the n doubleac by the way,

799
00:41:03,120 --> 00:41:06,800
Speaker 1: these are the NAACP's numbers, even by the n NAACP's numbers,

800
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,880
Speaker 1: do people know the thirty percent of their qualification of

801
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 1: lynchings were white? This is not I mean, how many

802
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 1: people are only now, of course it's one of the

803
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 1: ugliest things. That's horrible, it's racist, all of that, But

804
00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:24,880
Speaker 1: we should know what the actual numbers or the actual

805
00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,359
Speaker 1: reality of the of the history of this was.

806
00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 6: And we should be thankful that basically no one living

807
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:37,480
Speaker 6: today has ever experienced one. Right, right and uh. And

808
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:39,839
Speaker 6: so when you have somebody like Pam greor come on,

809
00:41:40,360 --> 00:41:43,239
Speaker 6: if you point out that that can't be true, then

810
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,880
Speaker 6: they typically come back with, what, oh, you're racist.

811
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 2: Well, you don't know what it's like to live in

812
00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:49,000
Speaker 2: this experience.

813
00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:51,320
Speaker 6: And this is where I come back to objective reality

814
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,000
Speaker 6: and facts have to matter. And so for the view

815
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 6: to have this, this story happening and you know this, buck,

816
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 6: they preve all of the answers to questions and know exactly,

817
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 6: to a large extent, what is going to be said.

818
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 6: So oftentimes they conduct pre interviews for these shows because

819
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 6: so many of their hosts are morons that they know.

820
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:14,760
Speaker 2: What's going to be said. They still didn't correct.

821
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 1: And just just to give you a sense of why,

822
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 1: So there's a thousand a thousand documented cases of frontier

823
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,520
Speaker 1: justice where people were hanged by mobs that they're saying

824
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:25,359
Speaker 1: are non lynch. So it's like, now we're getting into

825
00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,200
Speaker 1: a the definition of lynch. And if you add those

826
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: numbers in, now it gets a lot closer. So it's

827
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: it's getting to be more like fifty to fifty. But

828
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,840
Speaker 1: the point is merely people should understand the history of

829
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:38,240
Speaker 1: this such that they don't think that anybody alive today

830
00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 1: was witnessing lynchings on their way.

831
00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:43,160
Speaker 6: And then it would be so common that your mom

832
00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:47,800
Speaker 6: would be like, you can't look in the trees. Somebody

833
00:42:47,840 --> 00:42:50,160
Speaker 6: just has to call out this bs is. I actually

834
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,960
Speaker 6: didn't know this. Estimates for Mexican American lynchings in the

835
00:42:53,040 --> 00:43:00,680
Speaker 6: Southwest range from six hundred to over five thousand. This

836
00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:02,479
Speaker 6: is again I'm just going based off of what groc

837
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,839
Speaker 6: is saying here for all of these numbers. So this

838
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:05,319
Speaker 6: is my point.

839
00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 1: So what I gave you, by the way, initially those

840
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:10,279
Speaker 1: are the end the official NAACP numbers on lynchings, which

841
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,200
Speaker 1: is seventy thirty black and white. And to be clear,

842
00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: these now we're really look, this is all eighteen hundreds

843
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: we're talking about here, mostly eighteen forty eight, eighteen forty eight.

844
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:23,879
Speaker 6: And a lot of those would be so called posse's right,

845
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:25,600
Speaker 6: like they would decide somebody has stolen.

846
00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,120
Speaker 1: But this is what this is what I'm talking when

847
00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: I said most lynches are not there, there is a

848
00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 1: there's this is interesting actually historically and I'm seeing this

849
00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:35,400
Speaker 1: play out now in the way that they do these numbers,

850
00:43:35,800 --> 00:43:40,279
Speaker 1: so they make a distinction between like a non judicial

851
00:43:40,280 --> 00:43:42,880
Speaker 1: hanging versus a non judicial hanging where there is some

852
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 1: judicial procedure that was supposed to be in place, and

853
00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,879
Speaker 1: that is how they get to the seventy thirty number. Okay, well,

854
00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:51,799
Speaker 1: I mean I don't think it really mattered very much

855
00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,920
Speaker 1: the people being hanged without due process. I'm just going

856
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 1: to point that out.

857
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,640
Speaker 6: And Pam Greer one billion percent is lying here, and

858
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,879
Speaker 6: the fact that ABC would air that on the view,

859
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,439
Speaker 6: the fact that they would know she's going to say

860
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 6: it and nobody would push back at all, I mean,

861
00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:07,440
Speaker 6: it's crazy. And it goes to what Buck's saying is

862
00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,040
Speaker 6: there is a profound, desperate hope to be a victim

863
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:15,360
Speaker 6: in left wing culture. Jesse Smallett is just such a

864
00:44:15,440 --> 00:44:19,160
Speaker 6: primary evidentiary fact of that that they want to have

865
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,440
Speaker 6: awful things happen, they want to have experienced awful things,

866
00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,640
Speaker 6: they want to have been victims. And Pam Greer is

867
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:29,560
Speaker 6: marinating in something that never happened. I wonder what she's

868
00:44:29,600 --> 00:44:33,160
Speaker 6: even thinking of to claim that that occurred and to

869
00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:35,440
Speaker 6: be allowed to air. All Right, we come back are

870
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 6: we still waiting guys, they still haven't started the White

871
00:44:37,480 --> 00:44:39,879
Speaker 6: House Press conference. I don't think they have still waiting

872
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 6: on that. Eventually, maybe the third hour, we will go

873
00:44:42,280 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 6: take that live whenever it starts there about forty five

874
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 6: minutes late or so. There's a company in Michigan, Rapid Radios,

880
00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 6: hometown of Nashville, maybe we'll need to rely on the

881

Speaker 6: five day charge. In the event some of these power

882

Speaker 6: lines go down, some people start to lose power if

883

Speaker 1: Hi, welcome back in to Clay and Box Trumps free styling.

897
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 2: Right now, he's just letting it rip up at the podium.

898
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:05,719
Speaker 1: We're gonna bring in some of the highlights of it

899
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:09,040
Speaker 1: because he's weaving, for sure, kind of going in and

900
00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 1: out of the different things.

901
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:10,799
Speaker 5: Uh.

902
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,920
Speaker 1: And I think he's laying some of the groundwork for

903
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 1: his discussions in Davos and specifically over Greenland, which I

904
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,520
Speaker 1: think is very much gonna be.

905
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 2: Uh.

906
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:26,920
Speaker 1: It's gonna be a bit of a showdown with some

907
00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:31,200
Speaker 1: of these European bureaucrat types. For example, Clay, here is

908
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 1: cut eighteen European Commission President Ursula vonder leyan.

909
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,880
Speaker 2: You know of the of the vonder Leans.

910
00:46:40,040 --> 00:46:43,719
Speaker 1: Yes, here she is saying that Greenland is non negotiable.

911
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:44,360
Speaker 2: Play eighteen.

912
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:47,920
Speaker 11: Ladies and gentlemen, we consider the people of the United

913
00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:52,600
Speaker 11: States not just our allies, but our friends and plunging

914
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 11: us into a downwards spiral which only ate the very adversaries.

915
00:46:58,280 --> 00:47:01,120
Speaker 11: We are both so permitted to keep it out of

916
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:05,560
Speaker 11: the strategic landscape, so our response will be unflinching, united

917
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:09,920
Speaker 11: and proportional. But beyond this, we have to be strategic

918
00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 11: about how we approach this issue, and this is why

919
00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 11: we're working on a package to support archic security. First

920
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 11: principle full solidarity with Greenland and the Kingdom of Denmark.

921
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:25,879
Speaker 11: The sovereignty and integrity of that territory is non negotiative.

922
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,720
Speaker 2: Well, I mean everything has a price.

923
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 6: Well, why does Denmark get to have control over Greenland?

924
00:47:34,719 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 6: If it's so bad for non Greenlanders to be in

925
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 6: control of in any way their future, why is Denmark

926
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,120
Speaker 6: allowed to still have this asset? And buck Let me

927
00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 6: just what President Trump is looking towards is I think

928
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,800
Speaker 6: a future where if you saw what Russia did with Ukraine,

929
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,960
Speaker 6: where they went in and they decided that they were

930
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 6: going to take that territory. He's asking a very valid question.

931
00:47:57,320 --> 00:48:00,520
Speaker 6: There isn't basically no defense of Greenland at all. What

932
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:02,640
Speaker 6: if Russia decides that they want to go in and

933
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 6: occupy that country because of its strategic value.

934
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,839
Speaker 1: Which Russia has done numerous times in the last two

935
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: decades to countries that are sovereign nations with real militaries.

936
00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:14,480
Speaker 2: I might, well, you just came back from Taiwan.

937
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 6: I mean, what China has done is slowly try to,

938
00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:21,040
Speaker 6: especially in the South China Sea, take over shipping lanes,

939
00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,560
Speaker 6: restrict who's allowed to transport, and ingress and egress in

940
00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:27,520
Speaker 6: those areas. Why is it crazy to think that Russia,

941
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:31,320
Speaker 6: as these Arctic shipping lanes open up, might not engage

942
00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,239
Speaker 6: in aggressive behavior and start to try to take over.

943
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 6: And I think what Trump's looking forward towards is trying

944
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 6: to limit that from ever becoming a reality.

945
00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:46,799
Speaker 1: Here is a Danish parliament member, among the most well known,

946
00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: because none of us know any of them.

947
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:52,320
Speaker 2: Rasmus Jarlav. I've always been a fan. I'm a Jarlav family.

948
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:55,600
Speaker 1: I celebrate Rasmus's whole catalog. Here he is cut seventeen.

949
00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:57,560
Speaker 2: We will, of course defend Greenland.

950
00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:01,479
Speaker 12: If there is innovation at by Americans groups, it would

951
00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 12: be a war and we would be fighting against each other.

952
00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 12: We know that the Americans are stronger than us, and

953
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 12: you have a much stronger military than ours, but it

954
00:49:09,520 --> 00:49:11,800
Speaker 12: is our duty to defend our land and our people

955
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 12: and the fifty seven thousand Danish citizens that live in

956
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:17,239
Speaker 12: Greenland that have made it absolutely crystal clear that they

957
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,080
Speaker 12: don't want to be taken by the United States. We

958
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,239
Speaker 12: have an obligation to fight for those people, and our

959
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,719
Speaker 12: forces will do that, but it would be a disaster

960
00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:26,480
Speaker 12: also for the United States.

961
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 1: We're not there's not going to be a war, like

962
00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,239
Speaker 1: what is this? You know, this is reckless stuff. No

963
00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:35,440
Speaker 1: one's shooting. And we love Danes. Danes are great people,

964
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,360
Speaker 1: and Greenlanders we don't really know them very well, or

965
00:49:38,360 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 1: at least I don't.

966
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:41,080
Speaker 2: Have you ever met someone from Greenland? I don't think so.

967
00:49:41,360 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 2: I mean, there's not very many of them.

968
00:49:42,560 --> 00:49:45,840
Speaker 1: We have Greenland listeners right now, but they're on the

969
00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:46,919
Speaker 1: they're on the Space Force base.

970
00:49:47,200 --> 00:49:51,600
Speaker 6: Well, look, here is what's going to happen if we

971
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:54,760
Speaker 6: are going to acquire Greenland. It is going to require

972
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:58,200
Speaker 6: us to make cash payments to people who live in Greenland,

973
00:49:58,239 --> 00:50:02,360
Speaker 6: and they're going to vote to be territorially connected to

974
00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:04,360
Speaker 6: the United States instead of Denmark.

975
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:07,279
Speaker 1: You can be rich an American, or you can be

976
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 1: cold and Danish.

977
00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 2: Yes, that's a good analogy.

978
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 6: Also, Denmark is spending, based on my reading, around a

979
00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:17,120
Speaker 6: billion dollars a year. Because as we started, I think

980
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:18,920
Speaker 6: this week or last week maybe it was, we were

981
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 6: talking about this. The primary economic value right now of

982
00:50:23,520 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 6: Greenland is shrimp. Now, I'm a big fan of shrimp.

983
00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:28,000
Speaker 6: I've bet a lot of you out there like to

984
00:50:28,040 --> 00:50:32,120
Speaker 6: eat shrimp. It's not exactly but the big greatest foundation

985
00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:35,640
Speaker 6: for economic viability in the twenty first century to say, hey,

986
00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:36,920
Speaker 6: what is your country known for.

987
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:38,920
Speaker 2: Well, we we go.

988
00:50:38,920 --> 00:50:41,440
Speaker 6: Out and we harvest a lot of shrimp from the sea,

989
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,120
Speaker 6: and so it's all these.

990
00:50:43,960 --> 00:50:45,400
Speaker 2: Mineral rights going forward.

991
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:50,120
Speaker 6: Again, I just I don't think Trump is getting enough credit.

992
00:50:50,200 --> 00:50:53,719
Speaker 6: The one thing the guy knows is land value development.

993
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,440
Speaker 6: He is looking at this and he's thinking not for

994
00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,480
Speaker 6: the next five years, he's thinking for the next twenty five,

995
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:03,120
Speaker 6: next one hundred years. This is a decision that makes

996
00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:04,279
Speaker 6: rational sense to him.

997
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:07,600
Speaker 1: Well, why also you think of something like like Greenland

998
00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 1: or or you know, the Falklands, which they did fight

999
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,400
Speaker 1: a war over with Argentina a while ago, back in

1000
00:51:12,680 --> 00:51:16,800
Speaker 1: the early eighties between the Brits and the Argentinians. Margaret

1001
00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:19,640
Speaker 1: Thatcher was not messing around. She also had a bit

1002
00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:23,439
Speaker 1: of a find out, you know, mess around and find

1003
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,879
Speaker 1: out foreign policy approach. But these are places that are

1004
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,640
Speaker 1: self governed but have some connection to another country for

1005
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 1: their defense. Like we have to pretend like this is

1006
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,760
Speaker 1: an integral part of this.

1007
00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:38,320
Speaker 2: This nation's sovereigny.

1008
00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,280
Speaker 1: Again, I would not advocate I would not support Trump

1009
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:45,400
Speaker 1: just taking this stuff by force. There has to be

1010
00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:47,600
Speaker 1: consent of the people that would be governed. There has

1011
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: to be an agreement. There has to be a negotiation

1012
00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 1: for this. But it's like I said, I mean, you're

1013
00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 1: we got we got a man here who is really

1014
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,920
Speaker 1: the legal legal of the US Virgin Island. There's not

1015
00:51:58,160 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 1: very many of us that are actual years licensed in

1016
00:52:01,480 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 1: United States. One day, I view, is gonna be on

1017
00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 1: a cruise and something's gonna go awry. You know, you're

1018
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:09,279
Speaker 1: gonna have some problem and you're gonna be calling mister

1019
00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,400
Speaker 1: Clay Travis here on the radio show asking him for

1020
00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:14,200
Speaker 1: advice because he knows his way around the legal system

1021
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:18,280
Speaker 1: in the US Virgin Islands. But if if Russia because

1022
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,400
Speaker 1: they wanted a warm place for their billionaires, for the oligarchs,

1023
00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:23,320
Speaker 1: well Russia is a bad idea because we don't we

1024
00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 1: got all these problems with Russia. But I'm just if

1025
00:52:25,320 --> 00:52:28,359
Speaker 1: some foreign country said, you know what we're gonna give you,

1026
00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:31,960
Speaker 1: I don't know, a trillion dollars for the US Virgin

1027
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 1: Islands and we'll provide all defense and whatever. I think

1028
00:52:34,960 --> 00:52:36,680
Speaker 1: we should hear them out. Depends on what the who

1029
00:52:36,760 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 1: the country is. Russia is a bad example because strategically

1030
00:52:39,080 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 1: that's a problem for US. But if the UK, if

1031
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:43,920
Speaker 1: the UK for some reason they're on their ass is

1032
00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:45,920
Speaker 1: financially they couldn't do this. But if they offered US

1033
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:48,560
Speaker 1: a trillion dollars to take the rest of the Virgin Islands,

1034
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:49,479
Speaker 1: yeah we're gonna merge.

1035
00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:51,359
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lose any sleep over that. Like, that's

1036
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 2: gonna be okay for me.

1037
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 6: The BBI in the USVII, But I think what's more

1038
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 6: likely to happen in that situation, and the USBI is

1039
00:52:57,480 --> 00:52:58,320
Speaker 6: actually a good.

1040
00:52:58,120 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 2: Analogy for Greenland.

1041
00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:03,880
Speaker 6: There's around ninety five thousand people Ish, a little bit

1042
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 6: less than one hundred in Saint Croix, Saint Thomas, and

1043
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 6: Saint John. Okay, I was a citizen of the United

1044
00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,120
Speaker 6: States of Virgin Islands. We are a territory. That means

1045
00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,440
Speaker 6: we can't vote for President, but we are subject to

1046
00:53:15,560 --> 00:53:19,759
Speaker 6: US jurisdiction. There's fifty seven thousand people in Greenland, the

1047
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 6: last asset we bought nineteen seventeen US Virgin Islands. Now,

1048
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:26,880
Speaker 6: we bought all three of these islands from Denmark in

1049
00:53:26,960 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 6: nineteen seventeen for twenty five million dollars in cash. Why

1050
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:34,280
Speaker 6: is that not an analogistic example of what could happen

1051
00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,160
Speaker 6: with Greenland? And by the way, the reason we wanted

1052
00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:39,080
Speaker 6: the US Virgin Islands, to my understanding, is to have

1053
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:44,640
Speaker 6: a basically shipping depot for transit purposes as it pertained

1054
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 6: to asset strategic assets in Latin America and also then

1055
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:53,479
Speaker 6: for going across to Europe for shipping lanes everything else.

1056
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 6: So I am a territorial lawyer in the US Virgin Islands,

1057
00:53:58,600 --> 00:54:01,480
Speaker 6: why would it not make sense to have Greenland under

1058
00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:04,440
Speaker 6: the exact same auspices? And I believe what American Samoa

1059
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:07,680
Speaker 6: we've talked about all the territories that are uniquely the

1060
00:54:07,760 --> 00:54:10,200
Speaker 6: insular cases. For those of you who really want to

1061
00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:13,920
Speaker 6: dive into the legal proceedings of the US Virgin Islands

1062
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 6: back in the day, there's an entire Supreme Court precedent

1063
00:54:17,680 --> 00:54:21,759
Speaker 6: surrounding these territories which are not states, which are not

1064
00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 6: allowed to vote for president of the United States, for instance,

1065
00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:28,120
Speaker 6: that are still subject to American jurisdiction. So you have

1066
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:31,440
Speaker 6: some form of independence, but you're under the fabric of

1067
00:54:31,480 --> 00:54:34,000
Speaker 6: the United States protection. Why would that not make sense

1068
00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 6: for Greenland? And again I come back to the way

1069
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:41,359
Speaker 6: this would work is we would pay every Greenlander a

1070
00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,239
Speaker 6: certain amount of money and they would decide that they

1071
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:48,080
Speaker 6: no longer want to be affiliated with Denmark. And that

1072
00:54:48,160 --> 00:54:50,560
Speaker 6: seems eminently rational to me. They would have better life,

1073
00:54:50,560 --> 00:54:53,520
Speaker 6: they would have a better economic situation, and we're going

1074
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:56,720
Speaker 6: to hear that in great detail, I think, starting tomorrow

1075
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 6: in President Trump. I don't think the timing on this

1076
00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:01,239
Speaker 6: is an accident, knowing that he's going to go to

1077
00:55:01,400 --> 00:55:03,880
Speaker 6: Davos and be speaking to the entirety of the world.

1078
00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,200
Speaker 6: All right, when we come back, we will take some

1079
00:55:07,239 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 6: of your talk back. We will close up shop on

1080
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:13,759
Speaker 6: the Tuesday edition of the program as President Trump continues

1081
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:17,719
Speaker 6: to talk in front of the media here on the

1082
00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 6: one year anniversary of Trump two point oh. And I

1083
00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:25,279
Speaker 6: want to tell you going into this weekend AFC Championship Game,

1084
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:28,120
Speaker 6: NFC Championship Game, Buck and Iron Miami. We went last

1085
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,000
Speaker 6: night to watch Indiana and Miami play a stellar BHI.

1086
00:55:31,040 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 1: But those of you are mad at me. If you

1087
00:55:32,760 --> 00:55:35,400
Speaker 1: go with my football analysis, you get what you get. Okay,

1088
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:37,600
Speaker 1: I know I was wrong on Miami, but it was

1089
00:55:37,680 --> 00:55:40,360
Speaker 1: closed if that one guy had caught the ball instead

1090
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:41,680
Speaker 1: of the other guy at the end.

1091
00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:43,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, there had been an interception if we hadn't had

1092
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:47,719
Speaker 6: the block kick for a touchdown. That was a implosion

1093
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,760
Speaker 6: by the Miami special teams. But we got the AFC

1094
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 6: and the NFC both playing Sunday in what should be

1095
00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:58,440
Speaker 6: epic games. The Seahawks going up against the Rams, and

1096
00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:02,000
Speaker 6: you've got that's the NFC side, and then on the

1097
00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:06,320
Speaker 6: AFC side, you've got what should be a really interesting

1098
00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 6: matchup with the Broncos hosting the New England Patriots. I

1099
00:56:09,440 --> 00:56:12,360
Speaker 6: have got some picks for you on the NFC side,

1100
00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 6: Matthew Stafford and Sam Donald. I think there's going to

1101
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:17,719
Speaker 6: be some points scored out in Seattle. Each of them

1102
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:21,480
Speaker 6: to throw more than one half touchdown pass. Matthew Stafford

1103
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:23,839
Speaker 6: and Sam Donald each more than one and a half

1104
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:26,799
Speaker 6: touchdown passes in Seattle. If I am right, that pays

1105
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,439
Speaker 6: out at two point seventy five to one. Appreciate Price
