Speaker 1: Welcome friends, day after the final debate, Welcome to the

6
00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. Great to be here with you. And

7
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:24,239
Speaker 1: I got to tell you, things are a little bit

8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: more tranquil than I think any of us would have

9
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 1: expected at this phase of this political race. Maybe the

10
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 1: left really did exhaust itself a little bit this summer

11
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 1: with the riots and the mayhem and the looting and

12
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 1: the arson and all the stuff that they were doing, right,

13
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: maybe they got that out of their systems. And you know,

14
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,440
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say it, it's not as fun to

15
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 1: break into a shoe store or go steal some designer

16
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 1: clothing in the name of social justice. When it's dropping

17
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: down into the fifties and then into the forties. You know,

18
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: when it's cold outside marching in the street, you know,

19
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: you need the marchers there to make it seem like

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:09,119
Speaker 1: a mostly peaceful protest. Marches don't want to be cold.

21
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 1: They like it when it's seventy five with a gentle breeze.

22
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:15,360
Speaker 1: That's when you really want to do the social justice stuff.

23
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: You don't want to do it when you got all

24
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,560
Speaker 1: of a sudden start thinking about wearing submittance. So they

25
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 1: maybe got a little bit ahead of themselves, used a

26
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 1: little bit more of the energy then. But I also

27
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: have a new theory about this, which is that they

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: realize the Democrats have the word has gotten out. And

29
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: you saw this with the ACB hearings, You saw this

30
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: with the way they've been responding to Trump recently. They

31
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: can't act like total psychopaths right now, and they can suppress,

32
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: they can lie, they can do all the things they're

33
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: doing clearly the media in particular, but they're really the visceral, obvious,

34
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: viral video Biden supporter is acting like barbarians. That stuff

35
00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: is not a good look in a general election. One

36
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 1: thing to get the base all fired up in the

37
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 1: election year, but it's not a good look for people

38
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: who actually want to win, those independent voters and that

39
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: small slice of the pie that's going to determine who's

40
00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:19,320
Speaker 1: the present for the next four years. So my theory

41
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: is this, they're lying in wait right now a little bit.

42
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 1: They're being a little bit more coy than perhaps we

43
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: had anticipated. But if Trump wins this election, and there's

44
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 1: already some early indicators this is the case, then the

45
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: insanity gets dialed all the way back up to eleven.

46
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 1: Then the insanity is unleashed that's been building up right

47
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,600
Speaker 1: now because there are still all the left wing crazies

48
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 1: out there. They're just lying in wait. They've been told

49
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 1: by the people who write the pay checks for the

50
00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: placards and the U hauls that deliver the social justice

51
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: materials and anti cop weaponry that shows up at these protests.

52
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,079
Speaker 1: They've been told, hey, guys, we got a fool enough,

53
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: well intentioned people in a handful of battleground states so

54
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 1: that we can be in power and then you can

55
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: run wild and no one's gonna stop you. But for

56
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 1: right now, cool it, calm down. I think that's what

57
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:20,680
Speaker 1: we're saying, because ACB hearings pretty quiet what we've seen

58
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: in response to Trump lately on the streets. At least,

59
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the activism. I'm talking about the really

60
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,799
Speaker 1: extreme actions that the left it was taking all summer.

61
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,720
Speaker 1: I mean, from May June July August, this country was

62
00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 1: in the grip of a left wing terror, and then

63
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: suddenly in September it started to fade out, and then

64
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: we get into October and all of a sudden, like

65
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: I said, it's colder, but they've realized they're not helping

66
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: their buddy Joe Biden. There's only so much he can

67
00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: do to hide the actions of his base. If they're

68
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 1: going wild right before people are cast again, it's mean. No,

69
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: tens of millions have already voted. So that brings me

70
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: then to the actual debate last night. I don't want

71
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,520
Speaker 1: to focus on the parts of it that I think

72
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: are the most important for all of us between now

73
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: and the actual election. Yes, Trump won, and I appreciated that.

74
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: When I said Trump won on Twitter, the President retweeted it.

75
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,440
Speaker 1: So then, of course my timeline on Twitter was full

76
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,600
Speaker 1: of all kinds of madness. But the President agrees with

77
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,520
Speaker 1: me that I agree with others that he did win

78
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: that debate. And this was more of the Trump that

79
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 1: I had expected to show up at the first time around.

80
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: He was completely calm, cool and collected. He was in

81
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,159
Speaker 1: control of the facts. He was in his way in

82
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: a Trump in a way, very presidential. He was a

83
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: guy that you feel like in the boardroom if you

84
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 1: had a dozen people gathered together in some fancy corporate

85
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 1: office having a big meeting, He's the guy that everybody's

86
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,320
Speaker 1: going to be looking to and listening to. That's his demeanor,

87
00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 1: that that's his and the two he is. Biden was

88
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: just kind of a feeble mess. I don't know what

89
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: else to say. Yeah, he was. I mean, he was

90
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 1: reasonably coherent with the usual talking points. There was nothing

91
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:12,159
Speaker 1: particularly compelling about any of the stuff that he said.

92
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,800
Speaker 1: We had really heard it all before, but seeing these

93
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: two candidates on stage, Trump just has much greater magnetism, charisma, vitality.

94
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: It's just not comparable. And if we weren't having this election,

95
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 1: and this was what really just ran through my mind

96
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,680
Speaker 1: last night as I was watching it live, if we

97
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: weren't having this election in a bizarre year of COVID,

98
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 1: Trump would win every state he won in twenty sixteen,

99
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: plus three or four additional states. Definitely would would pick

100
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: up a New Hampshire. You know, Trump would win. I

101
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,960
Speaker 1: think he'd have a shot at Minnesota. He would win

102
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: states that he didn't win the last time. But because

103
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 1: of COVID and what the country's going through, I've been correct.

104
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,000
Speaker 1: I think we'll see. But my assessment all along is

105
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 1: this is going to be a very tight race. And yes,

106
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,160
Speaker 1: the electoral college, no one can really guess exactly how

107
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 1: that's going to shake out. But we know that it's

108
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,159
Speaker 1: going to be a small number of votes in a

109
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: small number of states that determined this thing. All the polls,

110
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:14,919
Speaker 1: all the numbers show us that. So this is going

111
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: to be a fight to the finish. Was what Trump

112
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: did last night on stage enough to move the needle.

113
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,280
Speaker 1: The truth is, no one will really ever know. He

114
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 1: did not get a knockout blow against Biden. There was

115
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 1: no moment you watched that and you said, oh, you know,

116
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 1: Biden's finished. And given what's happened with the Hunter Biden

117
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 1: revelations this week, I do think there was that possibility.

118
00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: I think that there was a realistic chance that Biden

119
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,040
Speaker 1: was going to get so tripped up and it was

120
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: going to be such a mess up there that it

121
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 1: would have cost him in the general in a way

122
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,919
Speaker 1: that we could really, we could trace, we could go

123
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,440
Speaker 1: from point A to point bad didn't happen. In fact,

124
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 1: one of the biggest surprises last night was that there

125
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:04,159
Speaker 1: was not a single moment of real challenge to Biden

126
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,440
Speaker 1: all the Hunter Biden stuff to Joe Biden on the

127
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,600
Speaker 1: Hunter Biden stuff. He managed to skate past it. Now,

128
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 1: I don't want to spend much time talking about the moderator.

129
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: If you read my Twitter timeline, you'll see how I feel.

130
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: I thought she was fine. She was fine for fifteen minutes,

131
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: and then for the next fifteen minutes it started to

132
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,760
Speaker 1: get a little bit wait, why are you only interrupting Trump?

133
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: And she really did only interrupt Trump. I think there

134
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 1: were two or three interruptions of Biden answers the whole night.

135
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: And then and then she asked some questions that I

136
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,840
Speaker 1: found really distasteful and biased, Like I forgot that what

137
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 1: exactly the verbiage was. But you know, hey, Trump, you're

138
00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: a racist, right, so why are you a racist? Or

139
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,160
Speaker 1: why are you not one? And then the climate change question,

140
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 1: which I'll get to that in a bit. This is

141
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,240
Speaker 1: just journals have to do this to prove how smart

142
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 1: and serious they are. They have to ask about climate change,

143
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,880
Speaker 1: which if you even look at the polling year in

144
00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: and year out, it's like the twentieth most important issue

145
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,160
Speaker 1: to the American people overall. When they list out all

146
00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: these issues. I mean it's really you know, a minor.

147
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: It starts to get up there with like the eliminating

148
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,400
Speaker 1: the carried interest loophole or something. I mean, yeah, some

149
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: people care. But anyway, so there was no knockout blow

150
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: against Biden. There was one moment where I think he

151
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: created a real vulnerability for himself, and that has to

152
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: do with oil and we'll get to that. But I

153
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: just I saw last night as an opportunity for people

154
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 1: to get one more glimpse of really what we already

155
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,880
Speaker 1: know about these two guys, who they are. Donald Trump

156
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:34,280
Speaker 1: is not a politician. Sometimes he can be a little

157
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: bit unpredictable, to put it mildly, and he has his

158
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: own way of doing things. But the guy is a

159
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 1: fierce fighter. He's got a tremendous amount of leadership quality

160
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 1: and a tremendous amount of magnetism, you know, personal charisma.

161
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,960
Speaker 1: And he's done a good job for four years. They

162
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 1: can say that he's been awful on COVID all day walk,

163
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: but those are just talking points. He's done a good job.

164
00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: Joe Biden is essentially the classic, I mean the quintessential,

165
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: completely replaceable and uh, you know, duplicative Democrat politician Joe

166
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 1: Biden reminds me of a whole bunch of other guys.

167
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, you could you could switch out

168
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 1: Joe Biden with Senator Murphy from Connecticut or you know Bloomenthal,

169
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: I mean two Connecticut guys up there. You know, you

170
00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: switch out Joe Biden with any number of you know,

171
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: but the only difference is Biden's been the game much

172
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: much longer. But just another Democrat, nothing special, nothing powerful,

173
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 1: and has that whole old school you know. Hey, you know,

174
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just your friend sitting at your kitchen table,

175
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,679
Speaker 1: and I'm from Delaware. And sometimes my voice starts to

176
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: almost get a little folks see, like I'm maybe from

177
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,240
Speaker 1: the South, but I'm I'm really from Delaware. Man, hey, man,

178
00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,360
Speaker 1: you know, and I kind of throw in these phrases

179
00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,800
Speaker 1: to make it seem like I'm just one of the people.

180
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 1: And you know, it's it's also staged and phony, and

181
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,000
Speaker 1: it's worked for this guy though for a long time.

182
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 1: There's a reason why cliches are cliches. It's because people

183
00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: use them because they offered work and they're useful. But

184
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,839
Speaker 1: that's what you got last night with Joe Biden. I mean,

185
00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:21,120
Speaker 1: there's nothing, there's no vision, there's no there's no reason

186
00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 1: to vote for Joe Biden other than he's a Democrat

187
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: who is not Donald Trump. So that's it. I mean,

188
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,319
Speaker 1: that was the choice you saw on stage last night.

189
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: Now let's dive into who threw a punch, wear on

190
00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 1: what how much it mattered. Thanks for listening to the

191
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: Best of Buck Daily podcast. To get more from Buck

192
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 1: by following him on social media at Buck Sexton on Facebook, Twitter,

193
00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: and Instagram, and don't forget to visit buck Sexton dot com. Look,

194
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: all he does is talk about shutdowns, but forget about him.

195
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 1: His Democrat Governor's Cuomo in New York. You look at

196
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,600
Speaker 1: what's going on in California, you look at Pennsylvania, North

197
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:05,320
Speaker 1: Carolina Democrats, Democrats all they're shutdown so tight, and they're dying.

198
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:09,440
Speaker 1: They're dying, and he supports all these people. All he

199
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 1: talks about is shutdowns. No, we're not going to shut down,

200
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: and we have to open our schools. We do have

201
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: to open our schools. Trump's right about that. The science

202
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 1: backs him up on that. Democrats have allowed schools to

203
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 1: remain shutdown, have made sure, have demanded that schools stay

204
00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,720
Speaker 1: shut down because they think it's in their political interests.

205
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,720
Speaker 1: But I think this is one of the strongest areas

206
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 1: for Trump last night, and as you know, I'm I

207
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: don't care when anybody what the polls say or anything else.

208
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:42,440
Speaker 1: Shutdowns and the restoration of normal life from this COVID

209
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 1: new normal they're trying to enforce on us of being

210
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,560
Speaker 1: scared of each other, separate from each other, masking up

211
00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: all the time. This is the most important issue in

212
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:54,840
Speaker 1: the country right now. Barnun and Biden try the usual

213
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 1: last night of blaming Trump for everything that's happened during COVID.

214
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 1: He tried the usual two hundred thousand deaths, our Trump's responsibility,

215
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: how many deaths would there be if Joe Biden was

216
00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,680
Speaker 1: in charge? And what would be acceptable? This issue has

217
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,280
Speaker 1: just been so ripe for demagoguery along and Democrats have

218
00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,800
Speaker 1: exploited it at every opportunity. That has been their approach,

219
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: which I know is completely unsurprising, but we should at

220
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,679
Speaker 1: least see this for what it is. The President listened

221
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,719
Speaker 1: to the experts, he did what they wanted him to

222
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:31,280
Speaker 1: do at every phase, and he's now allowed the States

223
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: to deal with this in a state by state fashion,

224
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: which is in keeping with common sense and with the law.

225
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 1: Mind you, a lot of places are using what are

226
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: effectively police powers to create us. They've got a state

227
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,839
Speaker 1: of emergency, and they're using police powers under the state

228
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:52,000
Speaker 1: of emergency to quarantine an entire population at different levels.

229
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:54,520
Speaker 1: And it's kind of a few layers all coming together.

230
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 1: That's not something the federal government should do. Think about

231
00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 1: what the Democrats are really are arguing for here. Why

232
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,000
Speaker 1: should Montana, where I was for a bit this summer

233
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 1: in August, why should Montana have the same policies about

234
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:13,199
Speaker 1: COVID that New York City has? That makes no sense whatsoever.

235
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: But then again, you take this a little bit further.

236
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 1: You can say, why should twenty five year olds have

237
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 1: the same approach to COVID as seventy five year olds?

238
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,320
Speaker 1: That also makes no sense. And people say, oh, but

239
00:13:23,360 --> 00:13:24,960
Speaker 1: the twenty five year olds give it to the seventy. No,

240
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: you know, if you're going to be in contact, it

241
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,680
Speaker 1: is in fact, entirely possible for people to live much

242
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: of their life without being in direct sustained contact with

243
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 1: people who are at high risk. That is very possible.

244
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 1: But Trump made his case on this last night, and

245
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 1: it was what we needed to hear. He said, this

246
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 1: is what I've done, This is where we're going. We

247
00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: got vaccines coming, We're putting out the fires one by

248
00:13:47,679 --> 00:13:50,880
Speaker 1: one as they come up with the increase in cases. Now,

249
00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:52,640
Speaker 1: I'm going to continue to make this argument, but you know,

250
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,520
Speaker 1: New York has still very low cases and the only

251
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 1: thing that makes sense to me, and it doesn't mean

252
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,080
Speaker 1: we're not gonna have any more cases. Of course, we

253
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 1: have cases day in and day out, but we're not

254
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 1: going to see a huge spike because it burned through

255
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 1: the city so quickly and so viciously that there's a

256
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,800
Speaker 1: lot of built up immunity, and that the most susceptible

257
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,439
Speaker 1: people to COVID, many of them, a large number of

258
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:18,800
Speaker 1: them already got it, and many of them tragically already

259
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 1: died from it. So I don't think it's going to happen.

260
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 1: And you know, and we're going to test this out.

261
00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 1: They're gonna say it's because of masking. We masked during

262
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 1: the shutdown in March and April, and the virus was

263
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: still ripping through the city, ripping through the tri state

264
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: area here. So we'll test that out. I'll return to that.

265
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,200
Speaker 1: What is Biden? What does he say? I mean, he

266
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: keeps talking about how Trump is somehow responsible for the

267
00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 1: virus and for the shutdowns, and Biden saying he's gonna

268
00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: make things better, but he's gonna make things better by

269
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 1: shutting us down. So it doesn't make any sense. There's

270
00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,200
Speaker 1: there's an incoherence to the Democrat position on all of this.

271
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: And really all they have to say is mask, mask, mask.

272
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: And I remember when just a few months ago, all

273
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: they had to say was testing, testing, testing, Remember that

274
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: with Nancy PLESI testing, he got a tested trace, and

275
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 1: a lot of us said we'll hold on. When a

276
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: virus has gotten to this level of spread already in society,

277
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:28,240
Speaker 1: you you know you're not going to be able to

278
00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: trace it at all. And when you're testing a lot,

279
00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: you're just going to end up finding a lot of

280
00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 1: low level on important cases because you're not just testing

281
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 1: people to go to the hospital. Now you're going to

282
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: test all over the place. Somebody has a sniffle, all

283
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: I got to go to the corner and get a

284
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: COVID test. Remember when testing was supposed to be the

285
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: thing that saved us from this. Now we test all

286
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: the time, now it's masks. It was washing hands in

287
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 1: the beginning. You remember that that there was a time

288
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: I have not forgotten when the exhortations for the public

289
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:57,560
Speaker 1: to wash their hands were the single loudest thing that

290
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,480
Speaker 1: was being said by Fauci and the gang in the

291
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: early day. They believe it. That was really how we

292
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,720
Speaker 1: were getting it. It wasn't even airborne or aerosol eyes.

293
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: That's the way that we have now come to believe

294
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:12,240
Speaker 1: it is. Biden wants you masking up all the time

295
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 1: plate twelve two twenty thousand Americans dead. You hear nothing

296
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 1: else I say tonight. Hear this. Anyone who is responsible

297
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 1: for not taking control in fact not saying I take

298
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: no responsibility initially. Anyone who's responsible for that many deaths

299
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,080
Speaker 1: should not remain as president of the United States of America.

300
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:35,560
Speaker 1: We're in a situation where there are a thousand deaths

301
00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,880
Speaker 1: a day now, a thousand deaths a day, and they're

302
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:44,680
Speaker 1: over seventy thousand new cases per day compared to what's

303
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: going on in Europe. As the New England Medical Journal said,

304
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: they're starting from a very low rate. We're starting from

305
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,440
Speaker 1: a very high rate. The expectation is We'll have another

306
00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:58,960
Speaker 1: two hundred thousand Americans dead be time between now and

307
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 1: the end of the year if he just wore these masks.

308
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 1: President's own advisors are told them, we could say one

309
00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 1: hundred thousand lives. And we're in a circumstance for the

310
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 1: president thus far and still has no plan, no comprehensive plan.

311
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: What I would do is make sure we have everyone

312
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: encouraged to wear a mask all the time. That's their plan,

313
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,640
Speaker 1: yell at everybody to wear masks, masks shaming. They think

314
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:28,399
Speaker 1: that will stop this. This is delusional. The data does

315
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,640
Speaker 1: not support this. Even if masking works at some level,

316
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: and I'm sure it does help at some level, for sure.

317
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 1: I mean I believe that it does. But to stop this, no,

318
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 1: I mean, who knows ten twenty percent reduction in cases

319
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,159
Speaker 1: over a period of over a period of time, but

320
00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,520
Speaker 1: it's not even clear that that reduction protects those you

321
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 1: know that that those people don't get infected just outside

322
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:53,840
Speaker 1: the time frame you're looking at for the study, You're

323
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,320
Speaker 1: essentially delaying the spread of a virus that is spreading

324
00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 1: all throughout the population. But mask up all the time.

325
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:04,880
Speaker 1: That's the Biden plan. You're in the freedom Hunt. This

326
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,360
Speaker 1: is the best of Buck Daily podcasts, the tough stories

327
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: of the day from the Buck Sexton Show. Healthcare is

328
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:16,879
Speaker 1: the area where Democrats think they have the biggest advantage

329
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 1: over Republicans. In fact, I've spoken to Democrats, including people

330
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:24,119
Speaker 1: who are campaign consultants and other folks I know from

331
00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: inside the swampy Beltway in DC, and they will tell

332
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:31,439
Speaker 1: you that it was largely healthcare they believe and public

333
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,760
Speaker 1: perception about healthcare that led them to a pretty substantial

334
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: victory in the midterm elections for the House. That was

335
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,680
Speaker 1: the favorite, the favorite issue for those consultants to get

336
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 1: Democrats elected. And part of the issue that we have

337
00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: to keep dealing with here is that Democrats have two

338
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,800
Speaker 1: things going for them fear and short term versus long

339
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,199
Speaker 1: term when it comes to healthcare. Fear of course, that

340
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: everyone is going to be thrown up. You know, everyone's

341
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: going to get pre existing conditions, and that they won't

342
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 1: have coverage if they don't have Obamacare. The world's falling apart?

343
00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: Is this all nonsense? Does anyone really feel like the

344
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 1: country's markedly different since the passage of Obamacare when it

345
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,119
Speaker 1: comes to healthcare, You've got more people on Medicaid a

346
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,040
Speaker 1: lot more millions more. Okay, fine, that's a welfare program.

347
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:19,120
Speaker 1: And you have an individual market with a lot of

348
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 1: high deductible, pretty small network, crappy healthcare plans, and that's it.

349
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,639
Speaker 1: And an individual mandate that's supposed to financially buttress this

350
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 1: whole thing. But that's not been taken away by the

351
00:19:31,640 --> 00:19:34,440
Speaker 1: Trump administration. No, I understand, this is not you know,

352
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,840
Speaker 1: we'll talk about the Borat movie and Giuliani and stuff

353
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:38,680
Speaker 1: later to get a little more spice into the show,

354
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: because I know this this can feel a little bit

355
00:19:40,560 --> 00:19:43,399
Speaker 1: like schoolroom stuff. But this matters, matters to you, matters

356
00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:45,560
Speaker 1: to me. I mean, producer, Mark and I are about

357
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,760
Speaker 1: to be choosing our healthcare plans here coming up. I'm

358
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:50,240
Speaker 1: sure other people are in that. What do they call it?

359
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 1: When you're doing that, you're choosing the healthcare the period

360
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,240
Speaker 1: open enrollment, Thank you, thank you, open enrollment. You know

361
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:59,880
Speaker 1: we're going to open enrollment. And you look at these plans.

362
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,879
Speaker 1: Somehow it feels like every year plan gets more expensive,

363
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 1: healthcare options get worse. And I don't mean that for

364
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 1: any particular company. I just mean every year, though. Those

365
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:12,399
Speaker 1: are the mandates that you see with Obamacare. Those are

366
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 1: the mandates you see from the government. Right, It's somehow

367
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: healthcare keeps getting more expensive and your access to healthcare

368
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: is in many ways getting worse. Why is that going on? Well,

369
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,840
Speaker 1: it's because when when Joe Biden talks about the market,

370
00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: he doesn't really understand what a real market is. A

371
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,399
Speaker 1: market is individuals making choices based upon price. Right, that's

372
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:39,000
Speaker 1: how market. Actually. You provide services and people consume services,

373
00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 1: and it's the free exchange thereof, with price as the

374
00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 1: signal for what they want to do what they don't

375
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:48,719
Speaker 1: want to do. We like to try to pretend that

376
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: there should be no price in any of this, that

377
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,119
Speaker 1: you just get whatever you get. But that fails. And

378
00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:55,680
Speaker 1: when I say we, I mean the Democrats and the

379
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,800
Speaker 1: people that are pushing this. That fails to take into

380
00:20:57,800 --> 00:20:59,960
Speaker 1: account that it is, in fact the case that health

381
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: care is a limited good. Now, that doesn't mean we

382
00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 1: can't provide some form of healthcare from everyone. We obviously

383
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: have emergency rooms where you must treat people no matter what.

384
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:12,439
Speaker 1: But not everybody's going to get to see the most

385
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: reputable heart surgeon in the world. That's just there's just

386
00:21:15,640 --> 00:21:18,320
Speaker 1: not enough, not everyone's going to get to see the

387
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: you know, the top lasic eye surgery doctor or whatever.

388
00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 1: Just not going to happen. Right. There are market forces

389
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,320
Speaker 1: at work in this, and what the government keeps doing

390
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 1: is saying, let's just subsidize things more. Let's make more

391
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,400
Speaker 1: decisions for people and then subsidize it more taxpayer dollars.

392
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,640
Speaker 1: That's not a market, that's the government. That's central planning.

393
00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,919
Speaker 1: This is the central failure of socialism at work. So

394
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,720
Speaker 1: that's what they are doing. And when they talk about

395
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:48,240
Speaker 1: setting up a public option that will essentially turn into

396
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 1: Medicaid on steroids, right, why isn't medicaid sufficient? Right now?

397
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,160
Speaker 1: Why is it everyone saying, well, you know, it's well,

398
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: you have to only make a certain income to qualify

399
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: for Medicaid, but the people on Medicaid generally don't have

400
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 1: very good health outcomes. Why is that? Well, because for

401
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,199
Speaker 1: the program to even be a little bit solvent, and

402
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: it's the main drag on state budgets in places like

403
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:15,400
Speaker 1: New York and New Jersey and Illinois, Medicaid public sector pensions,

404
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,719
Speaker 1: that's why people's property taxes keep going of those are

405
00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 1: the drags on state budgets Medicaid I think, in the

406
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:24,680
Speaker 1: case of New York is by far the biggest one.

407
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: All right, well, then, why medicaid is very expensive to

408
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,400
Speaker 1: the state, to the taxpayer, but doesn't have very good outcomes.

409
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: Why is that? Well, because they even at the level

410
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 1: that they're currently providing Medicaid services, they have a lot

411
00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:42,119
Speaker 1: of doctors that won't take it, and in fact, Medicare

412
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,320
Speaker 1: doesn't even I know, people love Medicare who have it,

413
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: and it's a very popular program, but it's because what

414
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 1: it effectively does is it's a intergenerational subsidy where the

415
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: future generations have to pay a tab currently being run

416
00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: up by people getting Medicare. People don't like to hear that,

417
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,600
Speaker 1: but that's true. That's why you pay. You take out

418
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: twice what the average person I should say, takes out

419
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,400
Speaker 1: of Medicare, twice what they pay into it. It's also

420
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 1: why we have now a twenty five trillion dollars debt.

421
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 1: I mean, I've been sure with it. I gotta check

422
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: what the debt is right now. But you see, all

423
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: of these are just ways of moving around money that

424
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:24,199
Speaker 1: comes from the taxpayer and not actually dealing with the

425
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: real challenge here, The real issue, which is that unless

426
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: you have real competence. Oh, I'm sorry, twenty seven trillion dollars.

427
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,400
Speaker 1: That's right. We've got the three three trillion extra this year.

428
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,880
Speaker 1: It has to be factored into the spending eighty two

429
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 1: thousand dollars per US citizen right now, two hundred and

430
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: seventeen thousand dollars per taxpayer. That's where we are. The

431
00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 1: music's gonna stop, and there aren't going to be enough chairs.

432
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 1: But I we'll have that conversation another day. No one

433
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,280
Speaker 1: really cares to hear that stuff anymore, so we'll just

434
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 1: we'll just wait till the currency is worthless. Hey, then

435
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: we'll figure it out. Good good stuff. So the public

436
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: option will create just like Obamacare was the beginning of

437
00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:10,400
Speaker 1: the push for Medicare for all, the public option becomes

438
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 1: a push for single pair because you'll see people will say, Okay,

439
00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:17,960
Speaker 1: why wouldn't everybody just want to take the public option

440
00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 1: healthcare plan? Well, because they're gonna be all kinds of

441
00:24:20,640 --> 00:24:25,560
Speaker 1: restrictions on it. Otherwise it's very very expensive, right, So

442
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 1: they're gonna put all these restrictions, which means that you're

443
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: not going to have great doctor networks, and people aren't

444
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,960
Speaker 1: really gonna like the plan. It's not going to cover

445
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 1: that much. And remember, health insurance isn't really insurance as

446
00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 1: we have it. It's subsidies. It's all these cross subsidies.

447
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,479
Speaker 1: You don't have a health insurance so that if you

448
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 1: have a heart attack and you have to have a

449
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: stent put in all this stuff. You know, you don't

450
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 1: get a three hundred thousan dollars bill. That's part of it.

451
00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 1: But for most people, health insurance is Okay, I'm gonna

452
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 1: go to you know, I'm gonna go to my eant

453
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: doc and I want to pay twenty dollars or I

454
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 1: want to pay fifty dollars copay and that's it. Okay,

455
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: Well the doc is arging your health insurer three four

456
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: or five hundred bucks. So these are all just machines

457
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,720
Speaker 1: for redistributing money to people. And there's a lot of

458
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: politics involved in all this. You create a public option,

459
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,120
Speaker 1: and what happens is that the public option people get

460
00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,400
Speaker 1: put onto it, and then there's all this political pressure

461
00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:21,479
Speaker 1: for the public option get more and more subsidy so

462
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,080
Speaker 1: that the plan can be better and better for the

463
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 1: people who are on it, and eventually you'll just start

464
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 1: to say, okay, well why should why should a private insurer,

465
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,000
Speaker 1: or rather, why should a private business insure its employees

466
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: just go get the public option? And the public option

467
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 1: is not that good. But now you have more and

468
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:38,679
Speaker 1: more people on it, So what do they do. They

469
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 1: use their power at the ballot box to start saying, yeah,

470
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:42,840
Speaker 1: but we're going to take more of your money to

471
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 1: make this a better option for us. Then private insurers

472
00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: start to say we can compete with this, this is crazy,

473
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: and yes, then you get to single pair and that's

474
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: how it works the same way we told you that

475
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 1: Obamacare was going to be a stepping stone to Medicare

476
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 1: for all, which we all know now is true. Oh

477
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:01,240
Speaker 1: and that they were planning all along on giving Obama

478
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,680
Speaker 1: Care to illegal aliens. Remember that on the debate stage

479
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: or in the Democrat primary, all those hands went up.

480
00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: It turned out we were right about that. I'm telling

481
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,119
Speaker 1: you right now, a public option. It is feasible to

482
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:14,919
Speaker 1: work at a public option where this wouldn't be the case.

483
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,760
Speaker 1: But why would Democrats want to do that? Because that

484
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 1: would require telling people who have the public option, sorry,

485
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:21,679
Speaker 1: this is the best you can get, right, and this

486
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 1: is the best you're going to get. This is the

487
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: best we can do while being fiscally responsible. Democrats are

488
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: going to say that, they're gonna say, oh, you're right,

489
00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:31,479
Speaker 1: we got to cover everything. We got to cover your

490
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: yoga lessons too, So let's just jack up property taxes

491
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:39,080
Speaker 1: on people. That's the way it's gonna work, folks. Then

492
00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 1: there's immigration, and this was interesting as well because it

493
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,360
Speaker 1: showed one that Joe Biden continues to repeat the original

494
00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: lies around the asylum at the border issue. You know,

495
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 1: I went to the border multiple times, as you know

496
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 1: if you've been listened me for a while, to spend

497
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 1: time doing right along with Border Patrol, meeting with CBP,

498
00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:02,440
Speaker 1: talk to people at the top level. We've had We've

499
00:27:02,440 --> 00:27:05,920
Speaker 1: had Ice and CBP and DHS chiefs on this show

500
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,560
Speaker 1: many times. It's a really important issue, and it's one

501
00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,119
Speaker 1: that I find critical to the future of the country.

502
00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:15,400
Speaker 1: And I just also think it's intellectually and politically fascinating.

503
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,240
Speaker 1: And here's the short version, in case you've forgotten, the

504
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:24,479
Speaker 1: asylum waves that were hitting the country about two years

505
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:28,120
Speaker 1: you know, a little over two years ago now, that

506
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,719
Speaker 1: was largely based on a loophole that had to do

507
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:35,120
Speaker 1: with people claiming that they were fleeing violence, when really

508
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 1: they were just fleeing a country with a crappy economy

509
00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,200
Speaker 1: where they didn't want to still be. And they realized

510
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,600
Speaker 1: that if they came with a child, then they would

511
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 1: go into a different part of the system and would

512
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 1: immediately be released in the United States. And what people

513
00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 1: like me were saying at the time was they're not

514
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:54,200
Speaker 1: going to show up for their hearings, and this became

515
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,240
Speaker 1: the big debate, and all the libs disingenuously. I think

516
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 1: many of them kind of knew. They were laughing behind

517
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,359
Speaker 1: closed or they're sayings, oh no, they'll all show up

518
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 1: for their hearings. Why why show up for a hearing

519
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,880
Speaker 1: when then you're running the risk of being denied asylum,

520
00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:11,879
Speaker 1: when you've already been released into the United States, and

521
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 1: there's you're very low especially if you're a mother with

522
00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 1: a child, you're a very low deportation priority, so you're good.

523
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:20,679
Speaker 1: So it was just an open door for people to

524
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 1: come into the country. And that's why you had as

525
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,360
Speaker 1: I remember, border patrol told me a thirty four year

526
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 1: old pretending that he was seventeen. Because it also was

527
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 1: a different program for minors. So there are all these

528
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 1: scams and the cartels were making hundreds of millions of

529
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 1: dollars helping people with these scams, and they were doing

530
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 1: this through individuals referred to as coyotes, were the human

531
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: traffickers in this whole process. And the different plazzas, which

532
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 1: is what the cartels call the areas along the southern

533
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 1: border where they control and they break them up and

534
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,920
Speaker 1: it's it's their turf, right, that's they make the money

535
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 1: for people to come to the border there, and the

536
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 1: cartels would use these coyotes, a lot of money going

537
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: through people's hands. It was fascinating last night to see

538
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 1: just how many dumbass blue checks think that coyote is

539
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: a disparaging term for immigrants who are coming to the border.

540
00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 1: They were and these are people. I mean, what's the

541
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 1: guy went to? Uh? I think he's a Harvard student now.

542
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 1: David Hogg, the the guy who became the anti gun

543
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,840
Speaker 1: activist when but he was seventeen, so you couldn't criticize him.

544
00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 1: And he would go around calling people blood soaked terrorists.

545
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:30,680
Speaker 1: But if you said anything, then they need to boycott.

546
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:33,479
Speaker 1: You're attacking children. Notice how the libs love to do this.

547
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 1: They did this with Gretteth Thunberg. Yeah, let's have a

548
00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: very odd sixteen year old lecturing us. Now she's eighteen,

549
00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 1: so game on, right, we can fight, we can argue

550
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:44,880
Speaker 1: she's an adult. Right? Is that are those the rules?

551
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,479
Speaker 1: Or no? We can you criticize people in their eighteen

552
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:49,440
Speaker 1: that to be twenty one. I just want to know

553
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: they want people to be able to vote. Libs want

554
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: to be people to be able to vote at sixteen.

555
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 1: But I guess you can't criticize their politics until they're eighteen,

556
00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,920
Speaker 1: twenty four, twenty eight, I don't. Oh, you can be

557
00:30:00,960 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: on your parents insurance until you're twenty six with Obamacare, right,

558
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 1: So maybe that's the new rule. I'm not sure. Of course,

559
00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: the rule changes depending on what Democrats need in the moment.

560
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: But that guy hog who's just he had this whole

561
00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,960
Speaker 1: thing about how coyotes was a terrible thing to say

562
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: about people bringing their children the border. It's like, the

563
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,719
Speaker 1: coyotes are the cartel employees doing the human trafficking, You

564
00:30:25,280 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 1: utter morons. Blue checks all over the internet last night. Coyote,

565
00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, coyote is like a It's like a

566
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: racially disparaging term. No, no, no is the term everybody

567
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:44,320
Speaker 1: uses for human traffickers, which is a criminal act. And

568
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 1: these are the kind of human traffickers when they work

569
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 1: for the cartels, who will you know, they'll leave people

570
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,360
Speaker 1: in a really dangerous situation. They'll leave people to die

571
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:52,920
Speaker 1: out in the desert if they can't keep up right.

572
00:30:52,920 --> 00:30:55,480
Speaker 1: I mean, that's what happens. It's not good people. The

573
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 1: coyotes are bad guys. But just as when Trump calls

574
00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,520
Speaker 1: MS thirteen animals, you know, they say, oh my gosh,

575
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: you mean those gang members who rape and mutilate and

576
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 1: murder people for sport. Trump called them animals. How dare he?

577
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 1: The Libs don't care. Whatever works for them, whatever works

578
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: to attack the president in the moment. But there was

579
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 1: there was something worthwhile about this, this exchange on immigration

580
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:26,120
Speaker 1: last night, because Biden said path, path to citizenship. It's amnesty, folks,

581
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: He's telling you it's amnesty. This is the biggest single

582
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 1: thing the Democrats are going to try to accomplish. It

583
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:36,920
Speaker 1: is the top priority for them. They want amnesty, absolutely,

584
00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:41,640
Speaker 1: they want amnesty for illegals in this country because that's

585
00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 1: when we'll also find out, oh my gosh, suddenly it'll

586
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: be Oh, we had no idea. We said it was

587
00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 1: eleven point seven million people in the country legally, turns

588
00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: out it's more like twenty to twenty five. Oh yeah,

589
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: get ready for that too. But they oh yeah, the

590
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 1: government that the government that has the geniuses at the

591
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: FBI who thought that Carter Page was a Russian spy

592
00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 1: and set up a fize on him. That government really

593
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:09,760
Speaker 1: knows how many illegals have come into the country over

594
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: the last twenty years, right, sure, sure they do. That's

595
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,560
Speaker 1: why they fight at every turn trying to trying to

596
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: count count the illegals properly. They don't want that to

597
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 1: be known. You would think they would want it to

598
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 1: be known, but no, they don't like that data to

599
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,800
Speaker 1: be kept. So amnesty is for real. And then there

600
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 1: was the kids in cages line, which the Democrats love

601
00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:31,640
Speaker 1: to bring this up. Well, Trump had something to say

602
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:37,080
Speaker 1: about that. Play clip nine. These five hundred plus kids

603
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:42,280
Speaker 1: came with parents. They separated him at the border to

604
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 1: make it a disincentive to come to begin with. They

605
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: real tough, We're really strong, and guess what they cannot

606
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,680
Speaker 1: it is not coyotes didn't bring them over their parents

607
00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 1: were with them. They got separated from their parents, and

608
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:59,800
Speaker 1: it makes us a laughing stock and violates every notion

609
00:32:59,840 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 1: of who we are as a nation. Let me ask

610
00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 1: you first, they did it. We changed the policy. We

611
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 1: did not. They built the cages. They who built the cage.

612
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 1: Let's talk about who built the cages. To talk about

613
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 1: what we're talking about. What happened. Parents were ripped, their

614
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 1: kids were ripped from their arms and separated, and now

615
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 1: they cannot find over five hundreds of sets of those

616
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 1: parents and those kids are alone, nowhere to go, nowhere

617
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: to go. It's criminal. Who built the cages, if you

618
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:38,479
Speaker 1: want to know. The Obama administration built the cages, and

619
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:42,000
Speaker 1: they're really just fenced in areas. And I've seen those.

620
00:33:42,040 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 1: I've been to those fenced in areas. I've seen those

621
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 1: fenced in areas. And they are also temporary holding facilities

622
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 1: where people usually would be processed within twenty four hours.

623
00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,600
Speaker 1: They were They are depressing, they are not nice. I'm

624
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:57,640
Speaker 1: not I'm not negating that in any way. Have people

625
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,240
Speaker 1: tended to be in them for a day maybe two,

626
00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:01,600
Speaker 1: and then they were released into the interior of the

627
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: United States after being processed by ice. That's what was happening.

628
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:07,719
Speaker 1: The whole thing was a scam. By the way, these

629
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: people were not fleeing violence. They were being trained by

630
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 1: the coyotes who were bringing them to the border. By

631
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 1: doesn't know what the heck he's talking about. It doesn't matter.

632
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 1: People just want to hear what they want to hear,

633
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:20,120
Speaker 1: especially Democrats. Thanks for listening to the Best of Buck

636
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:32,320
Speaker 1: dive into what really is going to matter from the debate.

637
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,680
Speaker 1: If anything not clear, I mean you'll never really be

638
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 1: able to know. People talk about moving the needle and

639
00:34:37,200 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 1: knockout punches and all these look it's impossible to avoid

640
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 1: the cliches, and I'm not gonna lie to you. People

641
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 1: that do this for a living and you analyze these things,

642
00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,080
Speaker 1: you try to come up with new ways of saying it.

643
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,759
Speaker 1: But there's a reason why we end up sounding like

644
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 1: each other a lot on this. There's only so much

645
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,160
Speaker 1: you can say about a debate in terms of the

646
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 1: analogies and stuff. But here's what I think is gonna matter.

647
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:05,280
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania is a state where fossil fuels oil fracking matters

648
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,319
Speaker 1: a lot, still a part of the industry there, and

649
00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania is a critical state for whichever candidates going to

650
00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 1: end up being president of the United States. And Biden's

651
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 1: got a problem here because that's gonna be a little

652
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 1: bit like when Hillary Clinton went to West Virginia and

653
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: she and she said, well, if you work in the

654
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: coal industry, getting your job something like that. It was

655
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,959
Speaker 1: something along those lines that she said. She basically told

656
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,160
Speaker 1: people that they were on their own if you work

657
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: in the coal industry, we're gonna have to, you know,

658
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:39,640
Speaker 1: learn to code or train you in something else. That

659
00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,720
Speaker 1: did not go over well for Hillary in West Virginia,

660
00:35:42,760 --> 00:35:45,600
Speaker 1: as you may recall, or in the rest of the campaign,

661
00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:48,319
Speaker 1: because then she tried to walk it back and you know,

662
00:35:48,600 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: a moment of honesty that would haunt her. And of

663
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: course any real moment of honesty haunts a Clinton. They

664
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:58,120
Speaker 1: hate that. It's like garlic for a vampire. But last

665
00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:03,520
Speaker 1: night Trump with Biden had this exchange about fracking and

666
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:08,480
Speaker 1: oil play sixteen and what about Frakie. All right, let

667
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:15,680
Speaker 1: me Dent never said I opposed fraki You said its tape.

668
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,280
Speaker 1: I did show the tape put it on your website.

669
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:23,720
Speaker 1: Put it on. Put it on the website. Okay, ask

670
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:28,239
Speaker 1: and ye shall receive. Joe Biden Trump did, in fact

671
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:30,040
Speaker 1: put it on the website. You want to hear whether

672
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,239
Speaker 1: whether Joe Biden has a problem with fracking or not.

673
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,719
Speaker 1: He said, girl, let's see what you got, buddy, give

674
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: me your best shot. This is like the guy that

675
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:40,080
Speaker 1: says giving your best shot and then he gets knocked

676
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 1: out cold in the bar from the guy who gives

677
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 1: him his best shot. Play seventeen. Would there be any

678
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 1: place for fossil fuels, including coal and fracking in a

679
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 1: Biden administration. No, we would. We would work it out.

680
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 1: We would make sure it's eliminated and no more subsidies

681
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,880
Speaker 1: either one of those. I guarantee you We're gonna in

682
00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:07,480
Speaker 1: fossil fuel, no more, no new gradually move away from fracking.

683
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 1: And I think it's critically important on day one that

684
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:19,960
Speaker 1: we end any fossil fuel leases on public LANs. They

685
00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 1: want to do the same thing I wouldn't do. They

686
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,360
Speaker 1: want to phase out fossil fuels, and we're going to

687
00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 1: phase out fossils. There's no question I'm in favor of

688
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:31,680
Speaker 1: banning frack now. It's it's hard to really cover this

689
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:37,200
Speaker 1: without going very very deep into the details. Um, but

690
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:39,720
Speaker 1: this is a this is a religious belief for the left.

691
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,120
Speaker 1: I mean not just the climate change issue, which we'll

692
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 1: get to, but specifically fracking. I mean they really think

693
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: that fracking is is evil and in reality, fracking is

694
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,439
Speaker 1: the reason that the United States in many ways has

695
00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 1: been in such a place of unparalleled energy and economic

696
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,480
Speaker 1: dominance for the last ten or fifteen years. It was

697
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,400
Speaker 1: hugely helpful to us after the financial downturn. And the

698
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:11,160
Speaker 1: technology has been around since the nineteen forties. Right. You

699
00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 1: inject liquid ninety nine percent water and sand a tiny

700
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 1: amount of lubricant chemicals into shale formations. Right. That creates

701
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: small fractures, which allows the extraction of oil or natural

702
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 1: gas from the sites where the oil derric and well

703
00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: had been removed. But there's been an expanded utilization of this.

704
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 1: You get more than ninety percent. Okay, listen to me

705
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 1: on this one. Ninety percent of American oil and gas

706
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:44,480
Speaker 1: wells currently in use are hydraulically hyd fractured, and America

707
00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 1: is now a global energy superpower because of it. Now,

708
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:52,440
Speaker 1: this is so notworthy in many ways because It reminds

709
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,840
Speaker 1: me the discussion we're having now about experts and science.

710
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 1: Remember all the talk about peak oil. We used to

711
00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:01,400
Speaker 1: be told that we were going to reach peak oil,

712
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:04,880
Speaker 1: you know, in the run around now Actually, I mean

713
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 1: we were worried about peak oil stretching back for decades,

714
00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:12,600
Speaker 1: and geopolitical strategists became obsessed with this in America, and

715
00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 1: we in fact even made national security decisions based upon

716
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,680
Speaker 1: our access to oil because we were so worried we

717
00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,520
Speaker 1: were going to run out. But that meant that we

718
00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:25,439
Speaker 1: cared too much about Middle Eastern dictatorships and the whole

719
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: Mideast region. Why don't we find ourselves there because of

720
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,760
Speaker 1: the energy Because what it did in the global energy markets?

721
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 1: What was Iran's big trump card pardon the phrase, so

722
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 1: to speak, When we started to have more and more

723
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,359
Speaker 1: problems with well, we've had problems with since nineteen seventy nine,

724
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,279
Speaker 1: but when things started to ratchet up in recent years,

725
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,600
Speaker 1: it was always they could shut down the straits of

726
00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: horror moves, shut down the global energy market. Twenty five

727
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,560
Speaker 1: percent of oil goes through the straits straights of horror moves,

728
00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: so that was gonna be a big problem. Oil was

729
00:39:57,280 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: over one hundred dollars of barrel my friends in twenty eleven.

730
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: Go back ten years. This technology has been incredible, but

731
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:13,040
Speaker 1: people absolutely love on the left. They love to treat

732
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 1: it like it's some kind of a monster. And Biden

733
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 1: can't get away with it. Biden can't bring himself to say,

734
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 1: you know what, this whole anti oil thing that we've

735
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 1: got is lunacy. The cheap price of energy and the

736
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,279
Speaker 1: fracking that allows that to be the case, and the

737
00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:35,880
Speaker 1: domestic supply that we now have results in cheaper, better,

738
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:39,920
Speaker 1: faster everything in the economy around you. The room you

739
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,520
Speaker 1: are in is better climate controlled, the food that you

740
00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:48,239
Speaker 1: were eating is more efficiently grown and brought to you

741
00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 1: and stored. All of this because of fossil fuels. This

742
00:40:53,800 --> 00:41:00,960
Speaker 1: obsession with solar and windmills is lunacy. Democrat party is

743
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,919
Speaker 1: absolutely devoted to it, and they just don't care. In fact,

744
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,000
Speaker 1: Joe Biden starts out, now, this is the thing you

745
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 1: have to say. Climate change is an existential threat. It

746
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,240
Speaker 1: is absolutely not an existential threat. And it's a silly,

747
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 1: embarrassing thing to say, but that's now a thing that

748
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,479
Speaker 1: you must say to be a Democrat who's in good

749
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: standing with his own side, you're not allowed to say

750
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,919
Speaker 1: anything else about it. In fact that they'll laugh at you,

751
00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 1: they'll think there's something wrong with you. And then that

752
00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:34,480
Speaker 1: brings me to my problem with the question last night

753
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,320
Speaker 1: about not just a question about that. The climate change

754
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:41,160
Speaker 1: in these debates is always a segment unto itself. It's

755
00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:42,920
Speaker 1: always a section we're going to have a part of

756
00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:47,400
Speaker 1: the debate on climate change. Why? Why this is dumb?

757
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: This is dumb? And I know people, oh my gosh,

758
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:54,640
Speaker 1: you're such a yeah, who wants to place bets? That's

759
00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 1: I think the only way that we can start to

760
00:41:56,719 --> 00:42:00,160
Speaker 1: really we can start to really see people stop this

761
00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:03,520
Speaker 1: nonsense is if we created an exchange where you could

762
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:06,680
Speaker 1: place bets. The climate catastrophist can say, what's going to happen?

763
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,600
Speaker 1: You know? So, for example, the movie An Inconvenient Truth,

764
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,479
Speaker 1: you look at Florida underwater by the year twenty thirty.

765
00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:17,760
Speaker 1: All right, I'll put I'll put you know, ten grand

766
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:21,399
Speaker 1: right now on Florida's not going to be underwater in

767
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:23,400
Speaker 1: ten years. Who wants to take that bet? Right? That

768
00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,080
Speaker 1: would be that would be the only way that you'd

769
00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:28,280
Speaker 1: start to see people have to back off this nonsense

770
00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 1: where they were demonstrably wrong and suffer for being wrong.

771
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,960
Speaker 1: Because what you have now is they're wrong every ten years,

772
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:37,200
Speaker 1: but every ten years they changed their prediction for the

773
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:41,399
Speaker 1: next ten years. And that's what we're supposed to focus on. Oh,

774
00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: we didn't get it right the last time, but we'll

775
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:45,800
Speaker 1: get it right this time. And this extends even to

776
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: COVID and too, the COVID lockdowns. But you've got you've

777
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:54,759
Speaker 1: got Trump pointing out that Fauci is a guy who

778
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,480
Speaker 1: we're supposed to listen to about everything. This guy's been

779
00:42:57,520 --> 00:42:59,879
Speaker 1: wrong tons of times. This is from the debate last

780
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 1: Right Play eleven. This week, you called doctor Anthony Fauci,

781
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 1: the nation's best known infectious disease expert, quote a disaster.

782
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: You described him and other medical experts as quote idiots.

783
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,480
Speaker 1: If you're not listening to them, who are you listening

784
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,000
Speaker 1: to them? That I'm listening to all of them, including Anthony.

785
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,399
Speaker 1: I get along very well with Anthony. But he did

786
00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: say don't wear masks. He did say, as you know,

787
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:25,239
Speaker 1: this is not going to be a problem. I think

788
00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: he's a Democrat, but that's okay. He said, this is

789
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,480
Speaker 1: not going to be a problem. We are not going

790
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,919
Speaker 1: to have a problem at all. When Joe says that,

791
00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,240
Speaker 1: I said, Anthony Fauci said, and to others and many others,

792
00:43:36,239 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: And I'm not knocking him a lot. Nobody knew. Look,

793
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,440
Speaker 1: nobody knew what this thing was. Nobody knew where it

794
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,160
Speaker 1: was coming from. What it was, We've learned a lot.

795
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,040
Speaker 1: But Anthony said, don't wear masks. Now he wants to

796
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,440
Speaker 1: wear masks. Anthony also said, if you look back exact words,

797
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:52,719
Speaker 1: here's his exact or this is no problem. This is

798
00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,360
Speaker 1: going to go away soon. So he's allowed to make mistakes.

799
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,120
Speaker 1: He happens to be a good person. Why is it

800
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,160
Speaker 1: such a problem to point out that Fauci has been

801
00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:04,600
Speaker 1: wrong many times during this Isn't that just speaking truth?

802
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,160
Speaker 1: The guy's been wrong a lot. A lot of people

803
00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,080
Speaker 1: have been wrong a lot. But here's the point. Fauci

804
00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:14,919
Speaker 1: is given a dispensation from the lib media because he's

805
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 1: a catastrophist and he just always gives you the most

806
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:22,080
Speaker 1: negative interpretation and doesn't care. You know, the economic damage

807
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 1: that's going on in the country, the ruined lives, the

808
00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 1: drug abuse. He's just you know, that's not as bad,

809
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:31,040
Speaker 1: it's not as big a deal as this disease wear

810
00:44:31,080 --> 00:44:32,920
Speaker 1: a mask, right, This is all we ever hear from

811
00:44:32,920 --> 00:44:35,360
Speaker 1: this guy, and the Libs like it because he's a

812
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 1: useful He's a useful tool with which they can try

813
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,400
Speaker 1: to bludgeon the Trump campaign, which is what they've been doing.

814
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 1: But he's been wrong, and they forgive him entirely. In fact,

815
00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:50,440
Speaker 1: they forbid you from even addressing the fact that he

816
00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:54,840
Speaker 1: has been wrong. Meanwhile, Trump, if he said back in March,

817
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,200
Speaker 1: look I think it's gonna fade out by the summer,

818
00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,120
Speaker 1: or look I think we're gonna beat this thing soon,

819
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 1: or whatever Trumpian thing he said, he's a mass murderer

820
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 1: because of that. So Fauci, who's an infectious disease expert,

821
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: can tell everybody and be given this unbelievable authority to

822
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,359
Speaker 1: basically make policy for the whole country. He could say,

823
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: don't wear a mask, and all the people that didn't

824
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: wear masks because of that, that's all forgiven and forgotten.

825
00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 1: But Trump says, I think this is gonna go away,

826
00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 1: don't worry about it that much. And he's a monster

827
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:27,239
Speaker 1: and a murderer. That's why this matters, because they have

828
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:30,759
Speaker 1: no standard that they're applying Fauci is great. Trump is

829
00:45:30,760 --> 00:45:33,520
Speaker 1: awful based on what based on Orange Man bad
