1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: This is twenty four, a weekly highlight reel from the

2
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:10,200
Speaker 1: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show featuring all things election coverage.

3
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,240
Speaker 2: Let's get started. Here are Clay and Bucks. My biggest

4
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 2: takeaway watching live last night, Kamala Harris, They're gonna run.

5
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 3: Twenty twenty all over again.

6
00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,760
Speaker 2: If you had any doubt at all, they are pretending

7
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:28,560
Speaker 2: that Donald Trump is the incumbent president. Kamala spoke for

8
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: thirty seven minutes, almost zero on policy. It was all fluff,

9
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 2: it was all vibe. It was all a fake campaign,

10
00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 2: and she is essentially running what Joe Biden did in

11
00:00:43,159 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 2: twenty twenty. I think Democrats learn the lesson that they

12
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,200
Speaker 2: don't actually have to get out and do very much

13
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 2: on the ground that the media will carry a lot

14
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,279
Speaker 2: of their water. They had Joe Biden being old and

15
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 2: COVID as an excuse in twenty twenty, but now in

16
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four or they're effectively going to do the

17
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,559
Speaker 2: same thing. No one has ever voted for Kamala Harris

18
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 2: to be president, not one person in the United States.

19
00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 2: In this election cycle. She has not done a single

20
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 2: press conference, she has not done a single interview, and

21
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 2: there doesn't seem to be any that she's going to

22
00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 2: do between now, maybe in the debate, which is scheduled

23
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 2: for September tenth, they're going to try to hide her.

24
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,440
Speaker 2: They're going to try to argue that Trump is hitler.

25
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,120
Speaker 2: I would say one thing that I do think would

26
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 2: maybe a significant in terms of the vibe shift. They

27
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: aren't really focusing that much anymore. And we maybe can

28
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,400
Speaker 2: talk a little bit about this related to January sixth,

29
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: or attacks on democracy, which was the centrality of Joe

30
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 2: Biden's claim. Even the law fair trying to put Trump

31
00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: in prison, although we should talk about this, has been

32
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 2: tamped down to a large extent. This is basically Trump

33
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 2: is the bad emoticon. Kamala Harris is the smiley face emoticon.

34
00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:58,639
Speaker 2: This is the twenty twenty four election.

35
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,400
Speaker 4: I watched it live again dedication to the job.

36
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 5: You watch it live too, right, Well, yeah, we were

37
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 5: willing to stay up for this one.

38
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:09,679
Speaker 6: It was.

39
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 5: It was brutal in the sense that listening to Kamala

40
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 5: give a speech is a really unpleasant experience. And I

41
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,839
Speaker 5: don't just mean that in terms of the distortions, the

42
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 5: outright lies, all the stuff that she's saying just the

43
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 5: way that she delivers it. I mean, she has a

44
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 5: particularly grading voice. She is not an appealing political persona

45
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 5: up there, and they're trying very hard to cover all

46
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 5: of that up with a lot of help.

47
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 4: From the media. And I think Klay is absolutely right.

48
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 5: If somebody were to ask me, what was the policy

49
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 5: thrust of I mean, anyone can say I'm going to

50
00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 5: bring down prices, create middle class jobs.

51
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 4: What about the how? Yeah, the part that's entirely missing

52
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 4: from the Kamala Harris campaign is how will you do

53
00:02:57,440 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 4: any of these things? It's all just promising.

54
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,920
Speaker 5: It's just you know, fairy tales and unicorns and rainbows

55
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 5: and yay. There's nothing substantive, in honestly, in the entire

56
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 5: Kamala campaign other than you know, Trump is a threat

57
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 5: to democracy and all this stuff. And to get lectures

58
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 5: about democracy from a political party that had a primary

59
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 5: and then just decided we don't like the result. And

60
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,519
Speaker 5: who's the wii not the voters, but the Democrat apparatus.

61
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 5: They decide, we're just gonna shove aside the president who actually.

62
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 4: Won that primary. Say which will about Biden?

63
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 5: They had a primary, he won the primary, end of story,

64
00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 5: and they force him to step down, and then they

65
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 5: force us as a nation to now sit and be

66
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,480
Speaker 5: you know, foisted upon us to have Kamala Harris as

67
00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 5: the Democrat nominee. They didn't even allow there to be

68
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 5: a discussion. Really right, I mean, if she's the successor,

69
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 5: Biden should just step down, but instead they want to

70
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,720
Speaker 5: keep Biden. But Kamala gets elevated because they say so.

71
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:08,640
Speaker 5: The whole thing is so false and so gross and

72
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 5: all this stuff about joy. This is not a party

73
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,040
Speaker 5: that has any interest in joy.

74
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 4: They're not having fun.

75
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 5: They all think Kamala Harris is a is a pain

76
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 5: in the neck.

77
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 4: They don't like this politician.

78
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 5: They were ready to dump her because she was gonna

79
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:22,760
Speaker 5: pull Biden down.

80
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 4: There's no joy. Tim Waltz is.

81
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 5: A weirdo, all weirdo, which is so ironic of course,

82
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,000
Speaker 5: because he's the one is like, oh Jdy Farren's is weird.

83
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 5: It's like, you know, the all American guy, self made

84
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 5: super success story with the you know, the pretty wife

85
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 5: and the nice kids and the best selling author, with

86
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 5: the movie made by Ron Howard about him.

87
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 4: He's a weirdo.

88
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,840
Speaker 5: Really, No, I think Walls putting the tampons in the boys' bathrooms,

89
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 5: among other really weird things.

90
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 4: Is a weirdo.

91
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 5: I mean, Clay, It's just like we're living in an

92
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 5: alternate reality watching the Democrats up there. Kamala Harris is

93
00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 5: not smart, not talented, not charming, not good at really

94
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 5: anything other than and being Kamala and using the Democrat system,

95
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:09,080
Speaker 5: the Democrat party system, I mean, not democracy to elevate

96
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:13,120
Speaker 5: herself and her just everything about it. I'm just like,

97
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 5: this is not you can hate Trump, but Trump is

98
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 5: telling you who Trump is.

99
00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 4: Kamala Harris.

100
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,000
Speaker 5: You could have replaced Kamala Harris last night with fifty

101
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:23,680
Speaker 5: members of Congress and it could have been the same speech,

102
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 5: basically the same. You know, oh, you know, grew up

103
00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 5: and loves America and you know Donald Trump bad and

104
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 5: do you know what I mean, There's no rationale behind

105
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:34,839
Speaker 5: any of this other than.

106
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,119
Speaker 4: Democrats want power.

107
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 2: Thirty minutes I timed it zero policy prescriptions. The first

108
00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 2: basic thirty minutes that she talked, she gave us virtually nothing,

109
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: and then she dove into what she's going to lean

110
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 2: in hard on abortion. And I think this is important

111
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: because a lot of you have daughters and granddaughters out

112
00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: there who are going to I think succumb to the

113
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 2: vibe of the Kamala Harris campaign in particular because they're afraid.

114
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 2: And I get it. If you're eighteen to thirty two

115
00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 2: or thirty four and you are single, and you have

116
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 2: bought into the idea that democrats are going to drag

117
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 2: you out of your house if you try to get

118
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 2: an abortion. I understand why that has emotional resonance.

119
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:24,880
Speaker 3: It just isn't true. I'm just it, but true.

120
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 5: Isn't that just not a smart person. If you're thirty

121
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 5: years old and you believe this stuff. The abortion in

122
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,279
Speaker 5: every state where it was legal before Row, it's still legal,

123
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 5: and in some place, in some cases, like Colorado.

124
00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 4: For example, even really expanded.

125
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:43,200
Speaker 5: I mean, Colorado's gonna hit you with They had a

126
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 5: million more abortions in twenty twenty three than they did

127
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 5: before Roe v.

128
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:47,799
Speaker 3: Wade was overturned.

129
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:53,039
Speaker 2: So, look, you can have whatever perspective you want on abortion.

130
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 2: If your granddaughter or your daughter, when you're sitting down

131
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,080
Speaker 2: and talking, she's saying and they're a lot buck, this

132
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 2: is sad, But they're are tens of millions of girls

133
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: out there eighteen to thirty four, eighteen to forty whatever

134
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:09,159
Speaker 2: the math is. That are single issue voters, and they

135
00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: have bought into the idea that Trump and the Republicans

136
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 2: are going to drag them out by their hair if

137
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 2: they get pregnant and put them in prison. They really

138
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 2: believe this is real, and Democrats have played up this fear.

139
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 3: You need to have a talk with them.

140
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,000
Speaker 2: I mean there are a lot Look, there are a

141
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 2: lot of reasons you cannot support Trump. Maybe maybe you

142
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 2: believe that the tax rate on corporation should be thirty

143
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: eight percent. Maybe you believe in forty five percent capital

144
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 2: gains tax rates. I think you're totally wrong if you

145
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,680
Speaker 2: have those perspectives. But you could at least defend that right.

146
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,640
Speaker 2: Like you can sit around and say billionaires have too

147
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 2: much money, we've got to tax them at higher rates.

148
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,840
Speaker 2: We've got a tax unrealized capital gains. I mean, you're

149
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 2: not very economically sophisticated in my opinion if you make

150
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,120
Speaker 2: those arguments, But you can make them the idea that

151
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 2: you are going to not be able to have an abortion,

152
00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,440
Speaker 2: and you would make that your only voting issue, which

153
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 2: I think tens of millions of women, tens of millions

154
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 2: of girls, tens of millions of young women out there

155
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,280
Speaker 2: are somebody needs to sit down and just share reality.

156
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: And that might be you. That might be you needing

157
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 2: to talk to your granddaughter. That might be you needing

158
00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 2: to talk to your daughter. I understand that can be

159
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 2: an uncomfortable conversation, but Buck, that was the only actual

160
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 2: policy I heard from her in the speech was basically,

161
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: Trump is going to drag you out of your house

162
00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 2: and not allow you to have abortion. Kamala Harris's entire

163
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 2: campaign seems to be abortion otherwise vibes, nothing else.

164
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 5: Yes, vibes is the primary. It's all about the fields,

165
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 5: the vibes. That's really what the Kamala campaign is run

166
00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 5: on entirely.

167
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 4: It was funny.

168
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, do we have a Rachel Maddow

169
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 5: saying that people, you know, the assassination of JFK, the

170
00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 5: buildings getting struck by the planes on nine to eleven,

171
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:56,160
Speaker 5: and Kamala's speech last night, things that you will remember

172
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 5: the rest of your life, where you were in the moment.

173
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 3: You heard you have that. Yes, this is if you

174
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 3: want to do the.

175
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 5: Big Brain of MSNBC over there, Rachel Maddow play eleven.

176
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 6: All right, you will remember where you were when you

177
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,599
Speaker 6: heard this speech tonight from the Vice President of the

178
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 6: United States, Kamala Harris, really introducing herself to the nation,

179
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 6: speaking as much to Republicans and independents as she was

180
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,360
Speaker 6: to the Democrats who were nominating her tonight, asking Americans

181
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 6: to remember how great their country is and to fight

182
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 6: for its values.

183
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:29,920
Speaker 5: You're going to remember where you were on this night.

184
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,079
Speaker 6: This is an inflection point in history.

185
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,440
Speaker 4: An inflection point in history.

186
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 2: I mean, do you think she actually believes that?

187
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:40,079
Speaker 4: No, absolutely not.

188
00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,720
Speaker 5: She's she is smart to believe that, right, completely, same

189
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 5: thing with Morning Joe. I was watching Morning Joe this morning,

190
00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 5: and Carry and I were just laughing about it, like

191
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 5: whatever allows them to, you know, add a new wing

192
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 5: to the beach house down in wherever, Florida, or you know,

193
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 5: buy the place in Malibu.

194
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 4: They don't care. They'll say absolutely anything.

195
00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 5: Rachel, There's absolutely no way, Rachel Matta thinks that everyone

196
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 5: will remember where they That speech stunk. Okay, listening to

197
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 5: Kamala Harris speak for normal people is rough. I don't

198
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,840
Speaker 5: even care what she says. She has a really really

199
00:10:12,080 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 5: bad voice and does not deliver speech as well, and

200
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 5: so you sit here, you go, we're supposed to like

201
00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 5: worship this, We're supposed but it just keeps being more

202
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 5: and more of the same, which is, instead of proposing

203
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:31,480
Speaker 5: an alternate pathway, they just propose an alternate reality. It's

204
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 5: like they're living in another dimension. And Kama was saying

205
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 5: last night that she was gonna sign the border security bill. Oh,

206
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:41,320
Speaker 5: you're the tough one on boarder. Wait, first of all,

207
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,319
Speaker 5: do you get credit or blame for the border of

208
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 5: the last four years?

209
00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:47,480
Speaker 4: All depends on the moment, right, Yes, the worst border

210
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 4: for illegal entry in history.

211
00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 5: And she's she's up there, you know, talking bragging about

212
00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:57,120
Speaker 5: how she's gonna sign a border bill that she's By

213
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 5: the way, the Republicans who went along with that are

214
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 5: such such idiot you know, I talk about Democrats being dumb.

215
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 4: They're trying to buy ports, And to me, all you

216
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 4: did was give democrats a talking point.

217
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,000
Speaker 5: Every republic I can't even remember who I should remember

218
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 5: who's on it because they're morons.

219
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 4: All the Republican senators went along with this.

220
00:11:12,280 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 5: Or idiots, yes, and just full full on like I'm

221
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 5: just not smart, I don't care, you know, because there

222
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 5: was no way it was going to pass.

223
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,320
Speaker 4: And all you're doing is giving them a get out

224
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:21,719
Speaker 4: of jail free card on.

225
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 5: The worst border in history. But I mean, claty your point.

226
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,640
Speaker 5: They got a dementiapation elected. I'm aware of this. Yeah,

227
00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:30,319
Speaker 5: they elected a dementsiapation.

228
00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:33,120
Speaker 4: We knew it. I didn't think I got this wrong.

229
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 5: It's funny I got it wrong, and you know, reverse

230
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,080
Speaker 5: kind of both ways. Twenty twenty, I was like, guys,

231
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,559
Speaker 5: he's got dementia. There's no way he can be the

232
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 5: nominee during the primary. No, they managed to pull that off,

233
00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 5: and they don't care. There's no you know, there's no

234
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 5: part of them. It's like, wow, we should think about

235
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 5: the dishonesty of our party. Given that we put Captain

236
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,840
Speaker 5: Sinility in the commander in.

237
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,600
Speaker 4: Chief chair for four years.

238
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,719
Speaker 2: And he's still there, we should mention it.

239
00:11:57,880 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 4: That's right, he said, he's still there.

240
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 2: He's still there making every decision. I mean, China could

241
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 2: invade Taiwan and suddenly Joe Biden would have four and

242
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 2: a half months where he has to be the leader,

243
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 2: the commander in chief. I mean, it's scary that he's

244
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,000
Speaker 2: in charge, but it is a entirely vibe based election

245
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,600
Speaker 2: from the Democrat perspective with no actual policy. Buck she

246
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 2: still doesn't have a single policy page on her website.

247
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 2: They have not released a single policy of what they

248
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 2: will do. I mean this is truly without precedent on

249
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,839
Speaker 2: many different levels. They're trying to elect someone who has

250
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 2: told us nothing of what she will actually do.

251
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:34,960
Speaker 5: I mean, do you ever have this when you were

252
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 5: in like nursery school, the mystery jar? You know, a

253
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 5: mystery jar that had a bunch of things that if

254
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 5: you whoever got the closest number, would get whatever's it

255
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 5: or you know, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, you know there's

256
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 5: a bunch of like, you know, I don't know, seashells

257
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,120
Speaker 5: or toys or whatever. It's like, oh, what's in the

258
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 5: mystery jar? You'd guess that's the policy of the Harris

259
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 5: Walls campaign.

260
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:53,839
Speaker 4: I mean, those are the policies. It's a mystery. Just

261
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:56,080
Speaker 4: vote for it. Just take a guess. Who knows? We

262
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 4: know nothing about these communists other than they lie about everything.

263
00:13:00,320 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 4: We know that.

264
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 2: This has been my concern for a long time, Buck,

265
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:05,520
Speaker 2: that we basically have an emoticon as a presidential candidate.

266
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,240
Speaker 4: It's good. This is a brand.

267
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 5: It's a brand exercise. It's not who's the best CEO,

268
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 5: It's do you drink coke? Do you drink PEPSI let's

269
00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,480
Speaker 5: see who's better at running ads. You know you remember

270
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 5: the ads for soft rinks back in the day. I

271
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 5: mean not that anyway. We got, we gotta go.

272
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 3: I got.

273
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 4: I was gonna say, though, oh yeah.

274
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 5: I just finished like training really hard for my my

275
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 5: football team. Let me drink a bunch of sprite, like

276
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,720
Speaker 5: horrible for you.

277
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 1: If you're listening to twenty four The Year of Impact

278
00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 1: with Clay and Buck.

279
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 5: The next Vice President of the United States. J D Vance,

280
00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 5: Senator from Ohio, joins us. Now, JD, great to have

281
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 5: you on the program again.

282
00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:50,559
Speaker 7: Good to be with you guys. So are you?

283
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 4: We're good man.

284
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 5: You know some of us knew you were gonna be

285
00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 5: the VP like six months ago. I'm just saying some

286
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:59,360
Speaker 5: of us. There's there's a record of this stuff out there, so.

287
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 2: I had to a stake for Buck. He said that

288
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,720
Speaker 2: you were going to be the VP pick months and

289
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 2: months ago. It's his greatest prediction on the show, So

290
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: I'm not surprised that he would decide to gloat as

291
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 2: we began the interview just throwing it out there.

292
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 7: That makes one of us guys because you knew something Buck,

293
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 7: I didn't know, But good on you.

294
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 4: Ah, there you go.

295
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 5: You know, sometimes the best thing is to throw it

296
00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 5: into the end zone with your eyes closed.

297
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,200
Speaker 4: So anyway, my friend, I got lucky on that one.

298
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 4: Tell me this though, last.

299
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 5: Night, the kamalat speech we both watched, meaning Clay and I.

300
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 5: I'm sure you watched it too. It feels like a

301
00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 5: camp you know. Seinfeld was a show about nothing. I mean,

302
00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 5: it wasn't obviously totally about nothing, but it was just

303
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 5: like them living their lives. And that's how he pitched

304
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 5: it to NBC. It's a show about nothing. The Kamala

305
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:47,040
Speaker 5: campaign seems to just be a show about feelings. What

306
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:49,160
Speaker 5: what is she really trying to accomplish? Like, what is

307
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 5: the what is the policy thrust?

308
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I didn't watch the whole speech just because I,

309
00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,800
Speaker 7: you know, didn't want to lose twenty IQ points, you

310
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 7: know when I'm underslept thanks to the campaign. But look,

311
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 7: I think that what she's trying to do here is

312
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 7: make herself the change agent, right, She's trying to make

313
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 7: people forget that she bears responsibility for the open border,

314
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 7: for the inflation, for the Inflation Explosion Act, which she

315
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 7: casts a deciding vote on, and she's I think, persuading

316
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 7: her party that if they just lie to the American

317
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 7: people and try to induce this collective amnesia, everybody's going

318
00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 7: to forget that she's been the vice president for the

319
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 7: past three and a half years. And I just don't

320
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:30,000
Speaker 7: think it works right. It maybe works for one night

321
00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 7: at the DNC convention when there's no countervailing narrative, but

322
00:15:33,640 --> 00:15:35,280
Speaker 7: I don't think that she can run that message for

323
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,360
Speaker 7: seventy five days. Eventually people are going to say, like,

324
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 7: why did you do all these things that made my

325
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:41,920
Speaker 7: life worse? And I don't think Kamala has a good answer.

326
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:46,400
Speaker 2: Tim Walls is I think also a disaster. But one

327
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 2: of the attack lines that they've come after you on,

328
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 2: I just think is, regardless of your politics, absolutely ridiculous.

329
00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:54,920
Speaker 3: And I'm curious for you.

330
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 2: You graduated from a family that was not very doing

331
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:04,440
Speaker 2: very well financially, went into the Marines, went to Ohio State.

332
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 2: I'll ask you about the Buckeyes forecast this year here

333
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: in a little bit, and then you go to Yale

334
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 2: law school. That's an incredible accomplishment. I know your grandmother

335
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 2: and your mother were ecstatic about you being able to

336
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 2: accomplish that. When Tim Walls and Kamala Harris attack you

337
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:22,520
Speaker 2: for going to Yale Law School, I think it lands

338
00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,680
Speaker 2: really flat, not even with just Democrat voters or Republican voters,

339
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 2: but just moms and dads and grandpas and grandmas out

340
00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 2: there that want their kids to achieve as much as possible.

341
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:35,400
Speaker 2: You kind of surprised that this has become one of

342
00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:36,680
Speaker 2: the lines of attack against you.

343
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, I am surprised because I know these people are

344
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 7: cynical about politics, and I just don't think that it

345
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 7: actually works right. I mean a lot of Americans, especially

346
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 7: those who grow up in less fortunate circumstances, they want

347
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,400
Speaker 7: their kids to be able to achieve the American dream.

348
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 7: And I've never felt this sense of resentment directed towards me.

349
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,720
Speaker 7: I've always felt when people hear my story, they kind

350
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 7: of see themselves and me, and they're rooting for me

351
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 7: because I came from a similar background to the one

352
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 7: that they came from.

353
00:17:02,560 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 8: And I think.

354
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 7: Any kid who grows up in the kind of circumstances

355
00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 7: that I grew up in a poor family, you know,

356
00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,400
Speaker 7: not the nicest things, not easy, not an easy life.

357
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:15,880
Speaker 7: You know, we always feel the sense of great gratitude

358
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 7: to the people who made us who we are, and

359
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,280
Speaker 7: for me particularly that's my mom and my grandmother, and

360
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 7: I just feel like this overwhelming sense of thanks that

361
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 7: they worked and sacrificed and made it possible for me

362
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,120
Speaker 7: to live the life that I've been able to live.

363
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,960
Speaker 7: I think most Americans feel that sense of gratitude to

364
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:33,879
Speaker 7: somebody in their life. And I think when Tim Watson

365
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 7: tries to insult what I've accomplished, he's fundamentally insulting. You know,

366
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 7: these women who made me who I am. I just

367
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,320
Speaker 7: don't think that it works. I think most people want

368
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,479
Speaker 7: their kids to have a better life, and they're kind

369
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,120
Speaker 7: of proud when that happens. They're not resentful.

370
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 4: You know.

371
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,760
Speaker 5: There was a lot of attention on the comments that

372
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:55,040
Speaker 5: Andy Basher made after I think it was night two

373
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 5: of the DNC and he brought you up and he

374
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 5: said something that that people truly thought was over the

375
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 5: line and tried to give him an opportunity to walk

376
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 5: it back or clarify, and the governor Kentucky did not do. So, Well,

377
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,359
Speaker 5: what do you think about that? Where do you stand

378
00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 5: on what Bashir said when he said that he hoped

379
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 5: that something terrible would befall your family?

380
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,359
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it was really gross, right. I mean,

381
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 7: I sort of expect that people are going to come

382
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,639
Speaker 7: after me. That's the price of participating in national politics.

383
00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 7: But to have a guy stand there and say, well,

384
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 7: I hope that JD experiences a female in his family

385
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 7: who's impregnated through rape, It's like, well, are you talking

386
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,320
Speaker 7: about my daughter, You're talking about my wife. It's just gross.

387
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 7: Just leave these guys out of it and don't engage

388
00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 7: in these bizarre fantasies because you have these ridiculous, regressive

389
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 7: social views. So look, man, it's you kind of get

390
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 7: used to it. My wife is very tough, and I

391
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,439
Speaker 7: think that, you know, she sort of accepts that this

392
00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,639
Speaker 7: is just the price of participation here, not just for me,

393
00:18:57,800 --> 00:19:00,399
Speaker 7: but for herself and for the whole family. It's not

394
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,719
Speaker 7: a good thing. That that's how it is. And you know,

395
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 7: I think the best revenge here is victory. Right. We

396
00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:08,159
Speaker 7: want to beat these guys, take back the country and

397
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,440
Speaker 7: make them realize that kind of politics just doesn't work.

398
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,200
Speaker 7: For most Americans, but if we don't beat them, then

399
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 7: it's going to be rewarded. I think it's one of

400
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 7: the reasons it's so important to actually win, is it's

401
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 7: not just we want to govern the country more effectively,

402
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 7: and that's obviously the most important thing. I think we

403
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 7: also want to make sure that the Democrats don't feel

404
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,240
Speaker 7: emboldened by the kind of race that they've been running,

405
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 7: which is completely divorced from details or policy. It's all

406
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 7: about vibes and it's all about gas lighting. Like I

407
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 7: don't want anybody to be elected president running a campaign

408
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 7: like that.

409
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 2: RFK Junior is going to have a rally in about

410
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,959
Speaker 2: an hour. President Trump is out in Phoenix area as well.

411
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 2: Do you expect RFK Junior to drop out of the race,

412
00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 2: And if he does, do you think he's going to

413
00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,280
Speaker 2: endorse you? Guys, what do you know about what's coming

414
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:53,480
Speaker 2: in the next few hours?

415
00:19:54,280 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, so I really don't know a whole lot, right,

416
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 7: I mean, I've been making my pitch to RFK personally

417
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 7: and to his vote, but in public, right, I've never

418
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,400
Speaker 7: actually spoken to RFK about dropping out of the race

419
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,959
Speaker 7: or about getting behind the president. I certainly think that

420
00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 7: if you look at the issue set that RFK cares about, right,

421
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 7: So take medical freedom. This is a guy who's been

422
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 7: I think, a very important voice in America on why

423
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 7: do we kick a bunch of veterans out of the military,

424
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 7: why do we fire a bunch of nurses for refusing

425
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 7: to take the experimental COVID shot? But clearly Trump is

426
00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,280
Speaker 7: more the candidate of medical freedom. If you think about

427
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 7: what RFK has said about the Ukraine conflict and not

428
00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 7: turning this thing into World War three, clearly Trump is

429
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,360
Speaker 7: the person who's trying to prevent this thing from escalating.

430
00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,639
Speaker 7: So I think on the issue set, clearly Trump is

431
00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 7: the guy. And I also think I mean, you guys know,

432
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 7: I grew up in a family of blue dogs, socially

433
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 7: conservative Democrats. They were Kennedy Democrats, right, and they feel

434
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 7: like the party has left them behind, and that's why

435
00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:49,639
Speaker 7: they become Trump Republicans. So I think would be a

436
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 7: very powerful testament to have an actual Kennedy, the most

437
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 7: famous Kennedy still living, get behind Donald Trump. I certainly

438
00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 7: hope that he will. I have no reason to mistrust

439
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:00,479
Speaker 7: the media reports about it. I think it is going

440
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,879
Speaker 7: to happen. I don't know exactly how it's going to happen,

441
00:21:03,160 --> 00:21:06,119
Speaker 7: but there's just no room for Kennedy Democrats and Kamala

442
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,440
Speaker 7: Harris's party anymore. So I hope they come to our side.

443
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 5: Do you think it could be significant given what the

444
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 5: polls are telling everybody about these critical swing states? And

445
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:19,120
Speaker 5: also if I could add to that, JD, what are

446
00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 5: you seeing in terms of the ground game. I mean,

447
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:24,000
Speaker 5: you know, you're the number two on the Republican side here,

448
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 5: so you must have good visibility into how the GOP

449
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 5: is operating in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan.

450
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 7: You know, I think it's it could be really important, right,

451
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 7: I mean, we know the race is going to be tight,

452
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,920
Speaker 7: we know the media is on the side of Kamala

453
00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 7: and the Democrats, and we just know we live in

454
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 7: a divided countries. So a couple points here there could

455
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 7: mean the difference between Donald Trump or Kamala Harris getting

456
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,840
Speaker 7: elected president. So yeah, it's really really important on the

457
00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 7: ground game side, I mean what we're seeing is two things, right.

458
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 7: So first of all, our grassroots are super engaged, agen

459
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,640
Speaker 7: people are very excited, and I think the energy here

460
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,359
Speaker 7: is just off the charts. But we're also doing a

461
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 7: lot of things that people don't realize to try to

462
00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 7: ensure election integrity. The new R and C chair has

463
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,680
Speaker 7: filed close to ninety lawsuits to try to protect legally

464
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:19,000
Speaker 7: cast ballots but ensure that illegally cast ballots aren't counted.

465
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 7: So we've got a lot going on. Some of it

466
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 7: doesn't always collect headlines. We actually had two really big victories,

467
00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 7: one in Arizona and one in Pennsylvania on the ballot

468
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,160
Speaker 7: integrity front just in the last couple of days. So look, man,

469
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 7: I think it's going well. We're gonna have to run

470
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 7: through the finish line. We're gonna have to do what

471
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,880
Speaker 7: we can. But if you just look at the numbers

472
00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 7: both we're seeing from the Democrats, the public numbers and

473
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 7: our own private numbers, what we're seeing is that Kamala

474
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 7: Harris got a bit of a sugar high. Towards the

475
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 7: end of July, it started to wear off a little bit.

476
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 7: I don't think their convention is going to stem that

477
00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:52,719
Speaker 7: at all. In fact, it might accelerate it. And so

478
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:54,480
Speaker 7: we're in a good spot. We just have to do

479
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 7: what we.

480
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 2: Need to do.

481
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:56,360
Speaker 3: Talking to JD.

482
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 2: Van's, okay, you're an Ohio State Buckeye fan college football

483
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 2: start this weekend. You just mentioned the Midwest. Honestly, Big

484
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:09,200
Speaker 2: ten fans in Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, many of them

485
00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,719
Speaker 2: listening to us right now. Probably you're going to decide

486
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 2: this election. How do you think Ohio State's gonna do,

487
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 2: and how do you balance that out going on the

488
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 2: road and make it your pitch to Wolverine spartans, penn

489
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,160
Speaker 2: State and Nitney Lion fans and Wisconsin Badger fans all

490
00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 2: over Big ten Nation, because I think that's pretty much

491
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 2: where you're going to be campaigning all fall.

492
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,120
Speaker 7: Yeah. I mean, I've already spent a ton of time

493
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,640
Speaker 7: in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. I pretty much go there once

494
00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:37,639
Speaker 7: a week and will through I mean each state. I

495
00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 7: go once a week and will through the end of

496
00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 7: the election. I joked with the President when he first

497
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,159
Speaker 7: asked me to be a CP I was like, well,

498
00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 7: hopefully we don't lose Michigan by like nine hundred votes,

499
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:48,639
Speaker 7: because you're going to regret it because it's probably just

500
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 7: one thousand pissed off Wolverine fans who wouldn't vote for

501
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:55,600
Speaker 7: a Buck guy. But I think that most Michiganders are

502
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:57,959
Speaker 7: going to be able to put sports rivalries aside and

503
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,919
Speaker 7: put the country first, which is of course all of

504
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:03,280
Speaker 7: us believe is the most important thing. I mean, look,

505
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 7: I'm a lifelong Buckeyes fan. I think we have just

506
00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 7: in terms of sheer, raw talent, maybe the best Ohio

507
00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,320
Speaker 7: state team I've seen since you know, the great two

508
00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 7: thousand and three team that upset the upset Miami in

509
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,600
Speaker 7: the National championship game. Like we had. We are stacked

510
00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 7: this year, and I think that if we if we

511
00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 7: take care of things, I mean, we should be in

512
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 7: the title game. We should win it. But we'll see.

513
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 2: Man, by the way, that was passing that was not

514
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:31,560
Speaker 2: pass interference in the in the championship game against Miami,

515
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 2: You guys can never complain about officiating for the rest

516
00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 2: of your life as a fan.

517
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:39,040
Speaker 3: After getting that call.

518
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 7: There were two other calls that went against us earlier

519
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 7: in the game where we would have won either one

520
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 7: of them. So on balance, we won that game. I'll

521
00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 7: go to my grave believe in that.

522
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 5: If I may, if I may weigh in here as

523
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,679
Speaker 5: the no stra damis of all things JD World, I

524
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,119
Speaker 5: think my beloved Buckeyes will have the best year they

525
00:24:58,119 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 5: have had in many years.

526
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,760
Speaker 2: Claye buck Buck by the way, you should know this, JD.

527
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,520
Speaker 2: Buck had never been to a college football game. I

528
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 2: took him to Alabama Ole Miss. He had an amazing time.

529
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,199
Speaker 2: He couldn't believe that this was a world that he

530
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,359
Speaker 2: had never experienced before. But now he tries to claim

531
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,800
Speaker 2: that he's a fan of every team, and so he's

532
00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 2: like he's always saying, like a role tide, he's going

533
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 2: to be saying, you know, I've always been held to

534
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,440
Speaker 2: the victors. And also you know, I've always been a

535
00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 2: big Ohio State guy. I mean, really, the pandering is

536
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:27,520
Speaker 2: is absurd on this show.

537
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 7: Well, let's let's go to the Ohio State Michigan game,

538
00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 7: assuming we win, because I bet I can get some

539
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 7: pretty sweet tickets as the VP elect, and we'll be

540
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,960
Speaker 7: in a celebratory mood. And look, it's it's going to

541
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,560
Speaker 7: be a big game this year. I think it's going

542
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,920
Speaker 7: to determine ultimate seating in the college football Playoff. I mean,

543
00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:46,960
Speaker 7: how both teams might actually make the playoff, and of

544
00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:50,320
Speaker 7: Michigan's you know sort of people aren't aren't aren't putting

545
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,120
Speaker 7: them as high this year, But you never know because

546
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 7: it's always a good program. So we'll see, guys. I'm

547
00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:56,600
Speaker 7: feeling very good about the buck Guys, I'm feeling very

548
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,240
Speaker 7: good about the Bengals, and I'm feeling very good about

549
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 7: this presidential So maybe we can hit the trifecta here

550
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 7: and have the Buckeyes wins the CFF playoffs, the Mingles

551
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,720
Speaker 7: win the Super Bowl, and Donald Trump can elected president.

552
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:09,360
Speaker 7: That'd be a good year.

553
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:10,879
Speaker 5: I have total faith you and Trump are gonna win.

554
00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 5: You know, we were talking with this before. Neither Clayon

555
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 5: nor I have ever been to the Naval Observatory. So

556
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 5: you may have to get some with someone on your

557
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,240
Speaker 5: staff to give us a tour. Okay, that's that's.

558
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:20,920

00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,200
Speaker 7: have to do everything we can to win this race.

569
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 7: It's going to be tight, but we're gonna win.

570
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,600
Speaker 1: You're listening to twenty four The Most Important Tier in

571
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:54,119
Speaker 1: Politics with Clay Travis sat Box Sexton.

572
00:26:55,480 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 5: Tim Wall's coach. I was a coach. You were a

573
00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:03,840
Speaker 5: coach too, right, you've coached, We've both been. We've been coaches.

574
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 5: I will say, the most fun job, the most fun

575
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 5: job I think I've ever had in terms of just

576
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:13,320
Speaker 5: like sheer Joy, a lot of fun. But they're they're

577
00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:15,359
Speaker 5: pulling out all the stops to make people think that

578
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 5: Walls is just so normal. We'll break down some of

579
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 5: the moments from the speech last night that were either disingenuous, condescending, absurd,

580
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 5: or just full on communists. So we'll get to that

581
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 5: in a moment. Also, look a lot of reporting that

582
00:27:34,920 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 5: RFK Junior tomorrow, Yes.

583
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 4: To tomorrow, making sure I know what day of the

584
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 4: week it is that.

585
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:46,159
Speaker 5: Tomorrow will in fact decide to throw his weight, not

586
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,119
Speaker 5: just to drop out of the race, but to throw

587
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:53,200
Speaker 5: his weight behind Donald Trump, which, when you see where

588
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 5: the polls are right now, if that is effective, if

589
00:27:56,600 --> 00:28:02,760
Speaker 5: the RFK Junior's followers would be voters going Trump, that

590
00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 5: could be a big deal. And I also love the

591
00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 5: timing of it that it's just meant to take Look

592
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,680
Speaker 5: what they did with the Joe Biden switch right after

593
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,720
Speaker 5: the RNC. So there's a little bit of a fight

594
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,920
Speaker 5: fire with fire attitude here, Clay right where after all

595
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 5: we've seen from their side and the fact that they

596
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:26,159
Speaker 5: switched the presidential candidate right after the RNC, and and

597
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 5: they've managed to get everyone to not hear from the

598
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 5: media certainly anything about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump.

599
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 5: But now we have a change in the narrative that

600
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 5: I think might throw them off balance a bit.

601
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 4: We'll see, we'll report on that as it comes.

602
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:43,960
Speaker 5: Do you want to dive into some of the Wall

603
00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 5: stuff from last night, because he's supposed to be They

604
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:52,080
Speaker 5: can't argue that Kamala is going to appeal to Midwestern

605
00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,760
Speaker 5: soccer dads. Really, that's what this is all about. Kamala

606
00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 5: is a far left progressive, There's no doubt about this.

607
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 5: Kamala Harris is a California machine Democrat through and through,

608
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 5: and that means that they are trying to do this

609
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 5: headfake with Walls where he's just like the dad that

610
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 5: you can trust and he's you know, coach, and he's

611
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 5: coming out there and doing all this stuff. Can we

612
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 5: just start with this one, though, because I can tell

613
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 5: that him and JD Vance, Remember when Nicky Haley and

614
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,760
Speaker 5: Vivek we're having a little bad and that was in

615
00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 5: a primary, but you could tell that it wasn't just

616
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 5: for show, like they grated on each other's nerves a

617
00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 5: little bit.

618
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:32,680
Speaker 4: I think that's fair to say.

619
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 5: I think Walls and JD, particularly because JD's been going

620
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 5: after him for the stolen valor stuff or the exaggerations

621
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 5: of his record, I think there's a I think those

622
00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:44,479
Speaker 5: guys don't like each other already. I think that's already

623
00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 5: that's plan out. But this shot that he took at Walls,

624
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 5: this has cut three guys. This shot that he took

625
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 5: at Walls. I'm sorry that Walls took a JD just

626
00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 5: bizarre to me play it now.

627
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 9: I grew up in Butte, Nebraska, a town of four

628
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 9: hun ndred people. I had twenty four kids in my

629
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 9: high school class and none of them went to Yale.

630
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:11,800
Speaker 4: I mean, that's a shot at Jade Vance. I just

631
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:12,600
Speaker 4: sit here and think.

632
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 5: One of the big things in Barack Obama's resume that

633
00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,440
Speaker 5: everybody said was so amazing, was he went to Harvard

634
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 5: Law when was the editor of Harvard Law Review. Elizabeth

635
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 5: Warren wouldn't have a political career if she didn't lie

636
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 5: about being a Native American so she could go teach

637
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 5: at Harvard Law. They usually look at people going to

638
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 5: elite institutions, especially from humble backgrounds, as good.

639
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 2: But for JD.

640
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:34,200
Speaker 4: Vance, it's now a sellout move. Clay is that we're

641
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:34,960
Speaker 4: supposed to think.

642
00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:40,520
Speaker 2: I think it's actually truly emblematic of how the Democrat

643
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 2: Party today is not the Democrat Party that most of

644
00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: us grew up with. Bill Clinton spoke on the stage.

645
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 2: Whatever you think of Bill Clinton, they spoke last night,

646
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 2: seventy eight years old. Now, I would say successful two

647
00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,960
Speaker 2: term president in that most of you out there were

648
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 2: fairly happy.

649
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 3: In the eighties and the nineties.

650
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,320
Speaker 2: We had Ronald Reagan for eight years and then we

651
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:06,640
Speaker 2: had Bill Clinton for eight years, and they really just

652
00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:09,840
Speaker 2: kind of argued about who loved America the most. That

653
00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 2: was actually the way campaigns were run. But think about

654
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:17,760
Speaker 2: Bill Clinton's appeal, it was I'm a small town kid

655
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:24,720
Speaker 2: from Arkansas, single parent raised who went to Georgetown Yale

656
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 2: Law School and became a Rhodes scholar. And then went

657
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,560
Speaker 2: back home and got elected to statewide office in Arkansas.

658
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 2: And that was the springboard that he used to propel

659
00:31:35,120 --> 00:31:38,640
Speaker 2: himself to the presidency in nineteen ninety two. JD. Vance

660
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 2: poorer even than Bill Clinton, worse background than Bill Clinton,

661
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 2: raised to a large extent by his grandmother, joins the Marines,

662
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 2: goes to Ohio State in Ohio, gets into Yelle Law School.

663
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:56,400
Speaker 2: And I'll come back to that in a minute, because I

664
00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:58,120
Speaker 2: know a little bit about that because I applied to

665
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 2: law school and went there at Vanderbilt. I know a

666
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 2: lot about that process. Graduates from Yel Law School, decides

667
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 2: that he wants to make a lot of money, goes

668
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:11,120
Speaker 2: to one of the coasts, comes back home because he

669
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:15,640
Speaker 2: wants to create venture capital opportunities in Ohio, gets elected

670
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 2: to statewide office in Ohio. Now is running to be

671
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,920
Speaker 2: Vice president of the United States. JD. Vance leave aside

672
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 2: a lot of the personal other sundry issues and everything else,

673
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 2: his trajectory is Clintonian. It is something that should be celebrated.

674
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 2: I'm a middle class.

675
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 5: JD would not want to be described as having a

676
00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 5: Clintonian trajectory, but you are accurate in the In the

677
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,120
Speaker 5: Bio lineup right.

678
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:42,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, as so far as we know, he hasn't been

679
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,800
Speaker 2: accused of rampant sexual assault, he hasn't slept with any

680
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 2: interns that we know. All these things right, and his

681
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 2: wife seems to be a stronger resume similarities between this two.

682
00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 2: JD also didn't run and avoid the draft, by the way, correct,

683
00:32:58,520 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 2: he actually went into the military. But my point on

684
00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 2: the sales process is, this is middle America dream. I

685
00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:09,959
Speaker 2: went to public school K through twelve. The idea that

686
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 2: you would go to college and be able to go

687
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 2: to an elite law school was something that everybody's parents, grandparents,

688
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 2: the kids themselves would aspire to and it is the

689
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 2: foundation of the American meritocracy, to rise beyond whatever your

690
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 2: birth status was. That is the foundation of the American

691
00:33:29,560 --> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 2: dream for everybody out there. Most people. I don't want

692
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: this from my kids. I don't want my kids to

693
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 2: only do the same things that I did. I would

694
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,600
Speaker 2: like for them to be more successful. If you have

695
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:42,200
Speaker 2: grandkids right now, you want them to be more successful

696
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 2: than you kids. This is an American dream. It's very strange

697
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:48,400
Speaker 2: that Walls this is, but this is I think where

698
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:53,280
Speaker 2: the Democrat Party has gone. They can't celebrate achievement because

699
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:57,160
Speaker 2: they no longer really believe in the meritocracy. And when

700
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:02,120
Speaker 2: you rise from humble beginnings and chief success, that is

701
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 2: the meritocracy. Particularly by the way, if you're a white guy,

702
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 2: I was going to say, from the Midwest, I mean,

703
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 2: you know, this was always something that informed my view

704
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,480
Speaker 2: of the world in politics, particularly when I was in college.

705
00:34:12,840 --> 00:34:15,879
Speaker 5: I went to an institution here in New York City,

706
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 5: Regis High School, where it's the only, I believe still

707
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 5: the only tuition free private school in the country. Right

708
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,080
Speaker 5: there's Juilliard and some of these places that you know,

709
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,800
Speaker 5: you can go for free, but that's that's different.

710
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,080
Speaker 4: This is tuition free high school.

711
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:34,040
Speaker 5: And there were first generation in my class, particularly Filipino

712
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,360
Speaker 5: and Korean kids for example, with parents who spoke almost

713
00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 5: no English. I mean, I met them, they were these

714
00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 5: were my friends. These are my friends. You know, parents

715
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:46,320
Speaker 5: spoke almost no English, and and they just worked incredibly

716
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,319
Speaker 5: hard and went to you know, name brand colleges. And

717
00:34:49,360 --> 00:34:50,719
Speaker 5: then I would just hear all this stuff when I

718
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:52,920
Speaker 5: was in college about how impossible it is for anybody

719
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:53,319
Speaker 5: to rise.

720
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,759
Speaker 4: I'm like, I was in a high school with kids

721
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:56,200
Speaker 4: who were.

722
00:34:56,160 --> 00:34:58,360
Speaker 5: Now they technically it's a school for the gifted, but

723
00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,319
Speaker 5: I was in a high school with kids who just

724
00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 5: worked really hard, came from nothing and in financially speaking, and.

725
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:05,840
Speaker 4: We're able to do really well.

726
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,480
Speaker 5: This is a narrative that the left actually wants to reject,

727
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 5: particularly now in the context of if you're a white

728
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,839
Speaker 5: guy or an Asian guy and you rise up on

729
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 5: your own and do well, that's not the story they

730
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 5: want to tell. The story they want to tell is

731
00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:22,960
Speaker 5: oppressed minorities who get special treatment from within the system.

732
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 7: Right.

733
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:24,800
Speaker 4: They don't want to talk about justice.

734
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,279
Speaker 5: Clarence Thomas, who's brilliant and went to Yale Law and no, no, no,

735
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,600
Speaker 5: they want to talk about people who say I only

736
00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,760
Speaker 5: was able to do it because of the collective, because

737
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,319
Speaker 5: of the system, because of affirmative action, whatever it may be,

738
00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 5: and then you're okay, right, And then that's the story

739
00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 5: they want to tell to undermine Jade Vance's story. To me,

740
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 5: for Tim Walls is, first of all, it's just it's

741
00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:49,720
Speaker 5: such bad faith, this idea that the guy who wrote

742
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,360
Speaker 5: an autobiography about growing up in let's just be honest,

743
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:58,439
Speaker 5: like a poor white dysfunctional family and overcoming that that's

744
00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 5: inspiring not only to other young white kids who are

745
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 5: in difficult situations, but to other black kids and Latino kids.

746
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,719
Speaker 5: It's like, I can overcome this. And the fact that

747
00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:09,960
Speaker 5: the Obama narrative, for example, was so celebrated that he

748
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:12,920
Speaker 5: came from pretty humble origins and obviously became a two

749
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 5: term president. What's the difference between these two guys, Like,

750
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 5: that's what I mean. Obama goes to Harvard and or

751
00:36:19,200 --> 00:36:22,600
Speaker 5: Colombia and then Harvard, actually Occidental, then Columbia than Harvard,

752
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:26,360
Speaker 5: but whatever, And that's great. But Jade Vance is a

753
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 5: sellout because he went to a good school. Anyway, I

754
00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,319
Speaker 5: don't want to get too deep into this other than

755
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:33,680
Speaker 5: just they'll say anything at this point that doesn't matter

756
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,120
Speaker 5: whether it rings true or not.

757
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: This is what I would actually say. I think Kamala

758
00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 2: Walls is the dumbest president vice president Combo.

759
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 4: You think lowest, mean IQ, I think that's probably I.

760
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:48,240
Speaker 2: Think Kabla might be smarter than Walls. I watching his speech.

761
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,720
Speaker 2: I watched that speech last night. Walls is an idiot.

762
00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 2: I mean, the idea that this guy would be a

763
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,920
Speaker 2: heartbeat away. I mean, first of all, he got everything

764
00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:00,520
Speaker 2: wrong in Minnesota as governor. But they I really do

765
00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:04,279
Speaker 2: think sometimes these speeches matter in the context of you

766
00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 2: don't have that many opportunities to talk to tens of

767
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,400
Speaker 2: millions of people theoretically and introduce yourself.

768
00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 4: So what you choose to.

769
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,440
Speaker 2: Convey in the same way that I went after Christy

770
00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:17,839
Speaker 2: Nome when she put in her autobiography that she killed

771
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 2: the dog, like, what you choose to emphasize to introduce

772
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,640
Speaker 2: yourself to an audience is to me important because how

773
00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,839
Speaker 2: you tell your story tells us a lot about you.

774
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 2: Wall spoke last night Buck for sixteen minutes, and he

775
00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 2: was running and he was rambling, and there was like

776
00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 2: random like football analogies that didn't make sense, and there

777
00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 2: was no policy, and there was no like actual intelligence.

778
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:44,440
Speaker 2: I was really embarrassed for it.

779
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 5: There's a phrase that I think is pretty popular with

780
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,439
Speaker 5: either millennial or gen z I don't know, but they'll

781
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:52,239
Speaker 5: also one a try hard, you know, like you're just

782
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:55,359
Speaker 5: trying so hard to convey something, And I think it's

783
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 5: useful in the context of Walls.

784
00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 4: I think he's a try hard with all of this stuff,

785
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 4: whether it's.

786
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,440
Speaker 5: You know, oh, I wear the camo hat and I

787
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:05,720
Speaker 5: was a coach, and I'm just the most normal guy,

788
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:06,720
Speaker 5: you know, if.

789
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,280
Speaker 4: You have to, if you have to say exactly.

790
00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:14,320
Speaker 5: He's pushing so hard for an authenticity in a way

791
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,560
Speaker 5: that I think undermines authenticity because you should just be

792
00:38:17,600 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 5: able to be who you are walk into a room,

793
00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,319
Speaker 5: especially in a situation like this where everyone's looking up

794
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:23,600
Speaker 5: you know, the learning about you and everything else, and

795
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:26,160
Speaker 5: you don't have to push it that much, right, I mean, look,

796
00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:29,040
Speaker 5: I've seen this. I've seen this a lot. I mean, look,

797
00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 5: I've been even in recent years. I'll go to the

798
00:38:31,719 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 5: range with guys who are you know, former seals, or

799
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 5: I'll be talking to guys you know about their time

800
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 5: in who are Delta guys, and they're not ever like

801
00:38:41,480 --> 00:38:43,880
Speaker 5: pounding their chests like oh, I'm such a badass, you

802
00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,120
Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like, yeah, I know who they are.

803
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:49,359
Speaker 5: They know who they are, and like everybody knows who

804
00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,160
Speaker 5: they you know, when you're in that kind of a setting,

805
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,839
Speaker 5: you know, Tim Walls is kind of the other thing

806
00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,239
Speaker 5: where it's a guy who's like, oh, like I'm so

807
00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 5: much like look at me, mister military guy. And it's

808
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 5: like but when it came time to really put your

809
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 5: chips in the middle and really show your stuff.

810
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,680
Speaker 4: You weren't mister military guy, you know what I mean.

811
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 5: So there's just a lack of authenticity about all this stuff.

812
00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 5: And I think even more glaring a lack of intelligence.

813
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,480
Speaker 5: I just I don't think this guy's very smart. Well,

814
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:19,520
Speaker 5: I mean the stuff that he did on COVID and

815
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,960
Speaker 5: the COVID tip line, I mean, that's unforgivable, correct, And

816
00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,919
Speaker 5: the notion that somehow he's the cuddly dad next door

817
00:39:26,920 --> 00:39:28,560
Speaker 5: that you know you could trust and you want, you know,

818
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:32,000
Speaker 5: coaching your kid's little league team. No, he's actually the

819
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,600
Speaker 5: look he's Nancy Pelosi in a car heart jacket with

820
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,600
Speaker 5: a camo hat. He really, you know, and and he's

821
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 5: he shut down football. I mean, if you're going to

822
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 5: be coach Walls, they had the signs that said coach

823
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:48,239
Speaker 5: Walls during the speech. He didn't allow high schools to

824
00:39:48,280 --> 00:39:50,200
Speaker 5: open or high school sports to be played in the

825
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:51,920
Speaker 5: fall of twenty twenty because he said it was too

826
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:54,880
Speaker 5: dangerous with COVID. He wouldn't let people get together with

827
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,680
Speaker 5: their families for Thanksgiving in twenty twenty, and he says

828
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:58,680
Speaker 5: he's the neighborlye guy.

829
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 2: They had a snitch a line. I think everything about

830
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 2: this guy is inauthentic. I think he's been wrong on

831
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:06,160
Speaker 2: everything as the governor of Minnesota. But also I think

832
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,040
Speaker 2: he's really dumb. I don't think he's an intelligent person

833
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:10,000
Speaker 2: at all.

834
00:40:10,600 --> 00:40:12,920
Speaker 5: I don't like to resort to calling people dumb in

835
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 5: politics because they do that on the right all the time.

836
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:16,560
Speaker 4: I will back you up on this one.

837
00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,160
Speaker 5: I just don't think he's I just don't think he's

838
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 5: a very high IQ high cognition guy. I really don't.

839
00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 5: And to be fair, you and I both agreed. I

840
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 5: think Kamala is smarter than he is.

841
00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 3: I think he's way smarter.

842
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think Kamala is smarter than he is, and

843
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 5: I don't think that he's bringing to this tick. It's

844
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,959
Speaker 5: so interesting. I was talking to somebody about this recently.

845
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,359
Speaker 5: Maybe we can come back in this a little more

846
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 5: as you see this Walls thing play out. The New

847
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 5: York Times is willing to say it was effectively Kamala's

848
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:44,000
Speaker 5: ego that was the reason he was picked instead of

849
00:40:44,040 --> 00:40:46,360
Speaker 5: some of the other names that we were talking about. Yeah,

850
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 5: is that just the narrative they want out there, though,

851
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 5: because really it was the hole they can't have the

852
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 5: anti Semites mad at them by picking Joshapiro A you

853
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:57,800
Speaker 5: know what I mean, like they really is so much better.

854
00:40:57,960 --> 00:40:59,920
Speaker 2: He's so much more intelligent. He's in a state that

855
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 2: it matters more. I mean I watched him speak and

856
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:02,520
Speaker 2: I just said there.

857
00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 5: So was he passed over because he would overshadow Kamala

858
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:07,480
Speaker 5: or because of the anti Semitism thing?

859
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,920
Speaker 2: I am vinced thinking, but I think it was the

860
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 2: Jewish thing more.

861
00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,480
Speaker 5: I think it was too because they put out a

862
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:17,239
Speaker 5: narrative about Kamala that was unfavorable because they had to

863
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,040
Speaker 5: sort of take take that hit.

864
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:25,520
Speaker 1: You're listening to twenty four the Year of Impact with

865
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: Clay and Buck.

866
00:41:28,239 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 4: Joining us right now.

867
00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:33,439
Speaker 5: The governor of Texas, Governor Greg Abbott. Mister Governor, Great

868
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:34,719
Speaker 5: to have you back on the program.

869
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 8: Hey, great to be back. How you guys doing You

870
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,520
Speaker 8: guys ready for college football season?

871
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,279
Speaker 5: We are, sir, we are him in and we are

872
00:41:41,400 --> 00:41:44,480
Speaker 5: we are ready also for a big Republican win in

873
00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 5: this election.

874
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:48,080
Speaker 4: God willing, Let's let's dive into this.

875
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,960
Speaker 5: The border is one of the biggest vulnerabilities that the

876
00:41:52,040 --> 00:41:56,440
Speaker 5: Harris Walls ticket has. One thing that we haven't heard

877
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 5: a lot about is what's going on at the border now.

878
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:02,200
Speaker 4: The way Democrats's try to speak about it, they.

879
00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:07,360
Speaker 5: Act like, well, it's been largely secured or partially secured.

880
00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 5: What's the status or the border as we go into

881
00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,160
Speaker 5: this election season.

882
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 8: Che give me the status, But you first need to

883
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:19,279
Speaker 8: know the timeline. Remember that Harris and Biden refused to

884
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 8: take any action whatsoever other than allow people in illegally

885
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 8: until June, as in two months ago, when Biden took

886
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:30,960
Speaker 8: this action that he said fixed the border problem. So

887
00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:35,640
Speaker 8: remember that June timetable. Then remember this, and that is

888
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,759
Speaker 8: if you look at when the decline actually began of

889
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 8: people crossing the border illegally, it happened late last year.

890
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,200
Speaker 8: So what caused it to begin to go down? What

891
00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,640
Speaker 8: cause it was? The action that Texas had taken. When

892
00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:54,839
Speaker 8: you add it all up together, Texas has built mile

893
00:42:54,960 --> 00:42:59,080
Speaker 8: after mile of the same border wall that President Trump built.

894
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 8: We've added the those big orange buoys that stop people

895
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,279
Speaker 8: from crossing that are placed in the Rio Grand River.

896
00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,640
Speaker 8: We have thousands of National Guard members who have built

897
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 8: hundreds of miles of razor wire border barrier that deny

898
00:43:10,680 --> 00:43:13,640
Speaker 8: illegal entry. Here's the point. If you look at that

899
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:17,040
Speaker 8: park and Eagle Pass, Texas. That's fifty acres in size

900
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,319
Speaker 8: that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had used to process

901
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 8: up to five thousand illegal immigrants a day. I ordered

902
00:43:24,719 --> 00:43:27,800
Speaker 8: the National Guard to why are that shut? And since

903
00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:31,960
Speaker 8: that time, we've had an average now of less than

904
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 8: one person crossing that area a day as opposed to

905
00:43:35,239 --> 00:43:37,759
Speaker 8: five thousand. Then on top of that, if you look

906
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,839
Speaker 8: at the overall decline and what Texas has been able

907
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,759
Speaker 8: to achieve over the past year of illegal crossings on

908
00:43:43,800 --> 00:43:48,600
Speaker 8: the border in Texas, it has gone down eighty seven percent.

909
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,360
Speaker 8: And because Texas represents two thirds of the entire border,

910
00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:55,239
Speaker 8: because of what Texas has been able to achieve, that

911
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,799
Speaker 8: means that overall illegal immigration across the entire border has

912
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 8: gone down. Has been texas Our efforts to put up

913
00:44:02,719 --> 00:44:05,600
Speaker 8: resistance to do the things that the federal government is

914
00:44:05,640 --> 00:44:08,839
Speaker 8: supposed to do, which is to deny illegal entry. That's

915
00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,920
Speaker 8: what has actually led to the massive decline in illegal

916
00:44:11,920 --> 00:44:12,879
Speaker 8: border crossings.

917
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,799
Speaker 2: Governor Abbott with US right now. Governor, I think this

918
00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:21,080
Speaker 2: is really important for what you do. If Donald Trump

919
00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:25,360
Speaker 2: is elected in about seventy five days and takes office

920
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:29,320
Speaker 2: in January versus if Kamala Harris is elected and takes

921
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,880
Speaker 2: office in January, what will it mean for the Texas border?

922
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 2: And as a corollary to that, or in addition to that,

923
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 2: what will it mean to so many other communities because

924
00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:43,440
Speaker 2: people don't stop in Texas, all of them, they filter

925
00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:47,920
Speaker 2: in everywhere. How much different is your job in Texas

926
00:44:48,360 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 2: As right there on the front line of the border

927
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:55,239
Speaker 2: with Kamala in office versus Trump in office.

928
00:44:54,840 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 8: Night and day difference. When Trump does get elected, and

929
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 8: one reason he will get elected is because of the

930
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 8: disaster and the danger and the death caused by the

931
00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,239
Speaker 8: Harris Biden border policy. You know, think of all the

932
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,399
Speaker 8: people whose names you could rattle off right now who

933
00:45:11,680 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 8: have been murdered by illegal immigrants who have been allowed

934
00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:19,280
Speaker 8: in by Kamala Harris as the borders are so For one,

935
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:22,920
Speaker 8: the death in Mayhem that we've seen over the past

936
00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:27,640
Speaker 8: year will be eliminated. But more than that, President Trump

937
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 8: will do two large primary things. One is reinstitute what

938
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:35,600
Speaker 8: led to the lowest illegal border crossings in forty five years,

939
00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 8: and that is to reinstate the remain in Mexico policy.

940
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 8: Some version of the title of forty two policy in

941
00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,200
Speaker 8: catching relief that was put into place by Joe Biden

942
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,759
Speaker 8: and Kamala Harris, and to continue to build the border wall.

943
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:55,359
Speaker 8: Those strategies will dramatically reduce not only illegal immigration, but

944
00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:59,520
Speaker 8: also the murderers committed by these dangerous criminals that are

945
00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:02,120
Speaker 8: coming across the border. It will reduce the chances of

946
00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 8: terrorism by actually apprehending these people and either you know,

947
00:46:06,680 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 8: sending them back across the border or putting them in jail.

948
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,960
Speaker 8: So my job as governor of Texas, what Texas as

949
00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 8: a state is having to invest will decrease dramatically. So

950
00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:22,160
Speaker 8: Texans are coming out of pockets about ten billion dollars

951
00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 8: out of our budget to fund our own border security,

952
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 8: and that's money that we will be able to put

953
00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:31,120
Speaker 8: right back into the pockets of our fellow Texans. So importantly,

954
00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 8: to expand that to other states, every state is now

955
00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 8: a border state. They're dealing not just with fensanls, They're

956
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 8: dealing with criminals. They're dealing with an overload of illegal

957
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,560
Speaker 8: immigrants in their own communities that they simply cannot afford

958
00:46:43,560 --> 00:46:45,520
Speaker 8: to deal with. This is going to be better for

959
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,799
Speaker 8: people in Georgia, better for people in Pennsylvania, better for

960
00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:52,720
Speaker 8: people in Michigan and Wisconsin, and definitely better for people

961
00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:56,320
Speaker 8: in Arizona and Nevada. It's going to be so helpful

962
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:01,480
Speaker 8: to leaders and communities and residents all of these states.

963
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:04,960
Speaker 8: And that's why I think Trump is definitely going to win,

964
00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,600
Speaker 8: because of the massive differential between what Trump will do

965
00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 8: in securing the border and what Kamala Harris has done

966
00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:14,919
Speaker 8: in her open border policies that have crushed the United

967
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:15,680
Speaker 8: States of America.

968
00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:17,280
Speaker 4: We're speaking of, Governor Abbot of Texas.

969
00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 3: Governor.

970
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,920
Speaker 4: I totally agree with you on both the stark difference

971
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 4: in approach to the border from Trump and what the

972
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:27,840
Speaker 4: Harris the Harris administration will do. Also agree with you

973
00:47:27,880 --> 00:47:29,840
Speaker 4: Trump's gonna win. But of course we have to focus

974
00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:31,880
Speaker 4: and stay on the case.

975
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:32,240
Speaker 3: Here.

976
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:34,720
Speaker 5: I am wondering if you could just give us some sense,

977
00:47:35,520 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 5: because I think the more that this can be made

978
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:41,799
Speaker 5: real to people, especially anybody who's a swing voter, the

979
00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,120
Speaker 5: like leader is to have an impact on election day.

980
00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,200
Speaker 5: You know, New York City has I think spent six

981
00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 5: billion dollars on illegals this year and is looking like

982
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:58,520
Speaker 5: it will spend between ten and fifteen billion dollars over

983
00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:01,719
Speaker 5: a three year period of the administration. What is the

984
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 5: cost I mean, to the degree that you can gauge

985
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:08,480
Speaker 5: it for us, the cost of illegals as Texas has

986
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:10,280
Speaker 5: to bear that burden as a state.

987
00:48:12,120 --> 00:48:17,200
Speaker 8: So it's as massive just as Texas alone, whether it

988
00:48:17,239 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 8: be because of the strategies that we have invested in

989
00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,719
Speaker 8: to deny illegal entry that we have to continue to

990
00:48:23,719 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 8: invest in. As an example, Texas built our own military

991
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,640
Speaker 8: base that will held us up to two thousand nationally

992
00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:32,439
Speaker 8: Guard soldiers right there on the border outside of Eagle Pass.

993
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,040
Speaker 8: That costs a lot of money to continue to maintain.

994
00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 8: But then you look at other costs, to look at

995
00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 8: the healthcare costs. And by the way, I issued an

996
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,800
Speaker 8: executive order last week, we're requiring all hospitals in the

997
00:48:43,800 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 8: stead of Texas to disclose exactly how much costs they're

998
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:50,719
Speaker 8: incurring to treat illegal immigrants. And we're going to be

999
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,720
Speaker 8: looking at the same thing with regard to our schools

1000
00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 8: and other services. But it would probably when you count schools,

1001
00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:01,239
Speaker 8: we're talking billions of dollars. But here's the important thing

1002
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:04,120
Speaker 8: for your listeners. What I'm talking about as far as

1003
00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:08,560
Speaker 8: costs are concerned you residents of other states. Your states

1004
00:49:08,560 --> 00:49:12,200
Speaker 8: are facing the same out of pocket expenses. This is money.

1005
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 8: Understand that this I cannot make a more important point.

1006
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:20,040
Speaker 8: Because of Kamala Harris's policies, You, as a taxpayer of

1007
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:21,799
Speaker 8: your state, are going to have to come out of

1008
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:26,719
Speaker 8: pocket to pay for services in your state for illegal immigrants,

1009
00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:29,200
Speaker 8: money that you should not be taxed for. Money that

1010
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,279
Speaker 8: should be going into your pockets, money that should be

1011
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:33,759
Speaker 8: used to reduce what you pay at the price of

1012
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,360
Speaker 8: the company at the grocery store. But all those costs

1013
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 8: are going up because your state is going to have

1014
00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 8: to spend more money dealing with the devastating consequences of

1015
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:46,280
Speaker 8: Kamala Harris allowing more illegal immigrants into our country.

1016
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 2: All right, you mentioned college footballs. Back, Let's finish off

1017
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,399
Speaker 2: with some positive news here, because I agree with Buck

1018
00:49:52,440 --> 00:49:55,160
Speaker 2: Trump's going to win. You guys are going to deliver Texas.

1019
00:49:55,160 --> 00:49:57,760
Speaker 2: Ted Cruz is going to win down there as well.

1020
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 2: I saw you last week your lovely life as well.

1021
00:50:01,160 --> 00:50:03,640
Speaker 2: We had a good time visiting. I appreciate the fact

1022
00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,359
Speaker 2: that you're the most successful Vanderbilt Law school grad even

1023
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 2: if they probably won't don't want you back on campus either,

1024
00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:15,120
Speaker 2: but you have got an incredible season coming up. Texas

1025
00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:19,439
Speaker 2: is now in the SEC. You I told you I'm

1026
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:23,160
Speaker 2: coming down for that Georgia Texas game. Eric, how much

1027

Speaker 2: fun is Austin gonna be now that the University of

1028
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,319
Speaker 2: Texas is back in the SEC, and if you're an

1029
00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 2: Aggie that the Longhorns and the Aggies are going to

1030
00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,719
Speaker 2: be playing every Thanksgiving week all over again too for

1031
00:50:35,719 --> 00:50:37,800
Speaker 2: people who don't realize how much fun that's going to

1032
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:39,239
Speaker 2: be and what a big deal it is not to

1033
00:50:39,239 --> 00:50:41,879
Speaker 2: mention Oklahoma, who I know is a big rival. What's

1034
00:50:41,920 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 2: Austin gonna feel like?

1035
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 8: I'll tell you, but let me real quick tell you

1036
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:50,640
Speaker 8: that when I've had the chance to visit with you

1037
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:53,239
Speaker 8: and make your wife. But I now know where you

1038
00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 8: came out with a name for your show of.

1039
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:59,400
Speaker 2: See's wait, Hey, you did well for yourself to governor,

1040
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 2: but we both out kicked our coverage for sure.

1041
00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:05,719
Speaker 8: Uh But but listen, it's going to be an extraordinarily

1042
00:51:05,800 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 8: exciting year for the University of Texas. Obviously, they played

1043
00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 8: great last year, went to the Final four playoff game.

1044
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:13,759
Speaker 8: But what a lot of people don't know is that

1045
00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 8: either they have everybody back or even even though they

1046
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 8: had three wide receivers that were drafted by the pros.

1047
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:23,279
Speaker 8: The wide receiver team is going to be better this year.

1048
00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:25,720
Speaker 8: The quarterback is going to be better one more year experience.

1049
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 8: We have one of the best offensive lines in the country. Uh,

1050
00:51:29,080 --> 00:51:31,640
Speaker 8: they're going to be a pinball machine when they run

1051
00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:36,200
Speaker 8: up scores across the nation. And we have an exciting

1052
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:38,880
Speaker 8: game against Michigan the second game of the year. Then

1053
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,480
Speaker 8: we got the Gauntletter playing OU at the Red River

1054
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:45,560

1055
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 8: with the reuniting of the Texas, Texas A and M

1056
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:54,560
Speaker 8: football game. Uh that that game alone. I mean, tickets

1057
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 8: are going for astronomical prizes so people can see it

1058
00:51:58,520 --> 00:52:01,320
Speaker 8: in person, and it's going to be something that a

1059
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,680
Speaker 8: lot of eyeballs are going to be watching. Uh there

1060
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,600
Speaker 8: the I think it's the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It's going

1061
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 8: to be a lot of fun.

1062
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 7: Uh.

1063
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,360
Speaker 8: Football is alive and well in the great state of Texas.
