Welcome in Thursday edition Clay Travis buck 3 00:00:09,400 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. I appreciate all of you hanging out with 4 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,160 Speaker 1: us as we powered through. 5 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 2: I have to be honest with you. 6 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four already feels crazy to me, Buck And 7 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,320 Speaker 1: what are we eleven days into the calendar? 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 2: So far? 9 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:28,120 Speaker 1: You got craziness happening everywhere, every direction. I know a 10 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: lot of you last night watched Nicki Haley Ron DeSantis 11 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,959 Speaker 1: on CNN, A lot more of you I think probably 12 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: watched Donald Trump on Fox News with his town hall 13 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 1: in Iowa. We will talk about both of those are takeaways. 14 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: But yesterday, and we've talked about this for some time 15 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: on the show, that there was no pathway for Chris 16 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: Christy to win and that if he truly is basically 17 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: in a Donald Trump attack mode, which is the higher basis, 18 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,600 Speaker 1: let's be honest, for his candidacy, that if that were 19 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: his goal, and clearly it was, that at this point 20 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: he is becoming a hindrance towards potentially Nicki Haley being 21 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: able to win in New Hampshire because just look at 22 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: the polling pretty much everybody who's voting for Chris Christy 23 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: would otherwise be supporting Ron DeSantis or even more likely, 24 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: I think probably Nicki Haley. Certainly those are not I 25 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: would think Trump voters, although the way voters make their decisions, 26 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: probably a couple of percent of Chris Christy voters will 27 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: actually end up voting for Donald Trump in the primary, 28 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: even though it doesn't make logical sense. But yesterday evening, 29 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: I think it was about five o'clock Eastern, shortly after 30 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: this program ended, while Sean Hannity was on, Chris Christy 31 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,880 Speaker 1: made the decision to end his presidential campaign. 32 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: This is what it sounded like. 33 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 3: I've always said that there came a point in time 34 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 3: in this race where I couldn't see a path to 35 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: accomplishing that goal that I would get out and it's 36 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: clear to me tonight that there isn't a path for 37 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 3: me to win the nomination, which is why I'm suspending 38 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,080 Speaker 3: my campaign tonight for President of the United States. 39 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 2: It's the right thing for me to do, because I 40 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:18,560 Speaker 2: want to promise you this. 41 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 3: I am going to make sure that in no way 42 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 3: do I enable Donald Trump ever be president of the 43 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 3: United States again. And that's more important than my own 44 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: personal ambitions. 45 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 1: Okay, So Chris Christy goes out then Buck. I don't 46 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: know if this happened right beforehand or right after, but 47 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 1: this almost immediately overshadowed the actual annoment announcement. Supposedly, Chris 48 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: Christy was caught on a live mic saying this. 49 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 3: People don't want to hear it. Wayne, they don't want 50 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 3: to hear it. We know we're right, but they don't 51 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 3: want to hear it. And this, you know, we couldn't 52 00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,640 Speaker 3: have been any clearer. If we couldn't have been anymore 53 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,799 Speaker 3: any more, director worked any harder, so you know, get. 54 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, when you could land the China and places like that, Yeah, 55 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 2: that's what you get. Yeah. 56 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, look, she spent sixty eight million so 57 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 4: far just on TV, spent sixty eight million so far, 58 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 4: fifty nine million by Desantus, and we spent twelve. Yeah, 59 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,800 Speaker 4: I mean, who's punching above their weight and who's getting 60 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 4: a return on their investment? You know, And she's going 61 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 4: to get smoked and you and I both know it. 62 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 4: She's not up to this. 63 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 5: She's still twenty points behind trumping them, yeah, oh yeah. 64 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,960 Speaker 2: And he's he's still going to carry out right. Yes, oh, 65 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 2: he's I talked to this. Desantus calls me petrified that 66 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 2: I would be like getting out woul after to Iola. 67 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 6: Well, okay, so it's pretty good stuff, by the way, 68 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 6: pretty good stuff in there. Do you remember, real quick, Clay, 69 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 6: you were a West wing guy right back in the day, 70 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 6: to watch it, Ye, I watch Remember we remember the 71 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 6: the hot mic moment when President Bartlett says, of some 72 00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 6: guy doesn't like he's a twenty two caliber mind in 73 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 6: a three fifty seven magnum world. And that was the ooh. 74 00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 6: And then you find out the end of the episode 75 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 6: he knew the mic was on. Yes, I have a 76 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:07,160 Speaker 6: hard time. This is the first thing comes to mind 77 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 6: for me. I think Chris Christy knew there was a 78 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 6: hot mic there. I don't think he's that undisciplined about 79 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 6: media that he didn't know, because think about what he's saying. 80 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 6: He's getting to talk, he's taking a victory lap, he's 81 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 6: trashing his opponents. He said time it sounded like something 82 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 6: you'd say, she's gonna get smoked. 83 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: Hey, yeah, well so here, yeah, here is what I 84 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 1: always think about the hot mic situation. When someone has 85 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 1: a hot mic and they say everything that they would 86 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: probably say if they had no restrictions, and they come 87 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: off looking better. 88 00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 2: I never buy that they didn't know a hot mic 89 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 2: was there. Yep, right. 90 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: And I always say this is an easy way to track, 91 00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: like who is the leaker? You know, there's always the 92 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 1: question of like, oh, the story's out, Like most of 93 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: the time you can figure out who's likely to have 94 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:54,719 Speaker 1: leaked something based on who benefits from the leak, right 95 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: when there's anonymous sources involved in everything else. 96 00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 2: So I don't think that this was accid. 97 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: If if there have been a hot mic come out 98 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,560 Speaker 1: and Chris Christy said something that he that you didn't 99 00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: want to go out, and you thought to my yourself, 100 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: oh yeah, maybe that maybe that's not the situation you 101 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 1: would expect. 102 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 2: I don't know. 103 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: I mean, everybody's micd and you and I are used 104 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: to this at this point. I don't know how many 105 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: hours a day I'm on a mic. I mean five 106 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: or six sometimes, I mean easily live mics, whether it's 107 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 1: television obviously this show, there's a mic in front of 108 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 1: us all day long, every day. I always say, live 109 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,559 Speaker 1: mics are problems when you sound different than you would 110 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:36,880 Speaker 1: in real life, right, and when you're putting on a 111 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 1: show like an artificial version of yourself. Otherwise people are fun. 112 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 1: You know, people are gonna say, yeah, that's kind of 113 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 1: what I would expect Clay Travis to say, because he 114 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: sounds kind. 115 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 6: Of remember all the time it's scripted, but in yes, 116 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 6: we sound exactly the same, especially if people like come 117 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 6: up to us in real life. Maybe there's sometimes a 118 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 6: little bit of saltier language, but other than that, it's 119 00:05:56,480 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 6: it's exactly the same. Do you remember in a third 120 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 6: when the Tina Fay character who's playing the head writer 121 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 6: on sn now effectively that's such a good and she 122 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 6: has an open mic and she trashes the whole crew. Yeah, 123 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 6: that's an open mic moment. She's like, so and so 124 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 6: is not doing this, and he's not doing that, and 125 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 6: they're so razy, and there's you know this with Chris 126 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 6: Christy to me, way too cute, Snicky Hayley is gonna 127 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 6: get smoked. Ron's calling me groveling, like the whole thing. 128 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 6: It just strikes me, as look, he's in this. 129 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 2: I don't disagree at all. 130 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: I was just gonna say the problem here that I 131 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: see is Chris Christie said I'm gonna do everything in 132 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: my power to keep him from being president. Or I'm 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 1: paraphrasing him there. He doesn't have much power, you know, 134 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: Like I'm sitting there, like, what can Chris Christy do 135 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 1: at this point to stop Donald Trump from being president? 136 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,479 Speaker 1: My takeaway there is when he run as an independent? 137 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:51,479 Speaker 1: That was That was my actual takeaway. And I don't 138 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: know how the ballot would like for no labels or 139 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 1: something like that. Could he take that that on? That 140 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,080 Speaker 1: actually was my takeaway. 141 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 6: You know, I sit here and I know it right 142 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 6: now for those of you who live a very online life, 143 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 6: which is very few of you, fortunately, but Clay and 144 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 6: I you know, we do. 145 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 2: It's part of the part of the job comes with 146 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: the territory. 147 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 6: People are very tense right now about the primary and 148 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,559 Speaker 6: there's a little bit of lashing out going on about 149 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 6: different candidates here and there, and I just you know, 150 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 6: I've done this.

I just think that that's 174 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 6: in a primary, that's kind of in a general that's 175 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 6: a different story. 176 00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, especially when let's be honest, assuming that we get 177 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: Trump versus Biden, and I understand all the people out there. 178 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 2: You're getting people riled up right now. I understand all 179 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 2: the people. We haven't even voted yet. 180 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 1: That's my angry, angry voice of the Internet masses who 181 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: get upset because the voting hasn't even started yet. But 182 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 1: assuming we get Trump Biden, which would be the expectation 183 00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:52,560 Speaker 1: right now, again, I think that the Democrats may break 184 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 1: the glass. I've been arguing that for some time. But 185 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: let's let's just presume it's Trump be Biden. Particularly on 186 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: the Republican side, I think every single person who ran 187 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,959 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four will run again in twenty twenty 188 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: eight because Trump is either gonna be eighty one and 189 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: out of the picture, or he's gonna have finished his term. 190 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: And by twenty twenty six, I mean really soon, the 191 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 1: ramp up regardless is gonna start because there's not gonna 192 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 1: be an incumbent in office. 193 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:23,680 Speaker 6: So we have, obviously, Chris Christy out. One thing I 194 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 6: wanted to ask you, and we didn't coordinate this before, 195 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 6: and I'm just curious, which was the first of the 196 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 6: two programs you went to, and did you watch both 197 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 6: or either of them live? The Trump town hall and 198 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 6: then just forever listening and the Nicky Haley versus Ronda 199 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 6: Santa CNN debate. 200 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: I started on CNN because it's two people and I'm 201 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: gonna be honest with you. Fifteen minutes in, I was like, 202 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: this is super boring. I just the one on one 203 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: debate between Nicky Haley and Ron De Santis. I thought, 204 00:09:55,200 --> 00:10:00,080 Speaker 1: compared to DeSantis, Newsom was just not that interesting and 205 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: it felt kind of boring. So I flipped over to 206 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: the town Hall and I got to give him credit. 207 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: I thought Trump was absolutely phenomenal in the town hall. 208 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:14,120 Speaker 1: He was relaxed, he was likable, he was funny, he 209 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: was interesting, he was entertaining. This is this was Trump 210 00:10:18,240 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: at his best. I thought with Fox News Live, he 211 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: wasn't particularly inflammatory. I thought he answered questions really well. 212 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: I think he does better with live audience like questions 213 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: than he does with the moderator questions, if that makes sense. 214 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: I think he shows more respect for the general person 215 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: than he does for the media person. 216 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,439 Speaker 6: He's not gonna steamroll Bob the construction worker or Sally 217 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 6: the nurse at the hospital when they ask a question. 218 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 6: He's very good about I want to hear what you 219 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 6: have to say. You're even trying to interview Trump, I 220 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 6: will say, as a challenge, it's, uh, he's he's going 221 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 6: in a direction. It's it's like you're the uh, you're 222 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:57,200 Speaker 6: the rodeo clown at the rodeo trying to keep the 223 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 6: ball from getting out of the pen. Like Trump does 224 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 6: whatever he wants to do in interview, it's very hard 225 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 6: to slow him down or direct him. 226 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 2: And I would say, for me, by the way, I 227 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:07,959 Speaker 2: was did you want you didn't know? 228 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 4: What? 229 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 2: How did you watch? Same? Same? 230 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 6: I mean, I I went to the debate first because 231 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 6: I thought, oh, more fireworks, and I figured I'd watched 232 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 6: the Trump town hall on delay, and I ended up 233 00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:22,320 Speaker 6: switching over earlier and and I look, I think that 234 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 6: that's pretty much the consensus opinion, and that Trump was 235 00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 6: very entertaining and was very affable, which is one of 236 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 6: his political strengths. 237 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 2: He's just he just comes across. 238 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 6: Even people I think who are being honest will say 239 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 6: that he is very good at being ingratiating and being entertaining. Now, 240 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:40,199 Speaker 6: whether that should make him president or not, it's a 241 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 6: whole other conversation. But the nicky Haley Ron de Santis thing, 242 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,800 Speaker 6: I don't know I I come at this with a 243 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 6: bias and that I'm not a big I don't really 244 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 6: understand much of the NICKI I understand who likes Nicky Haley. 245 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 6: I just wish that they would think of things differently. 246 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 6: I suppose, but I thought she had a really bad 247 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,560 Speaker 6: night over. I thought Nikki Haley came across this whole. 248 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 6: She said fourteen times, go to desantislies dot com, like 249 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 6: they made a website of how much he lies. I 250 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 6: went to the site, and I gotta tell you, there 251 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 6: there are some things on there where okay, like maybe 252 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 6: Ron's playing a little fast and loose, or I should 253 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 6: say it's debatable, but there are other things I'm like, 254 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 6: that's not a lie, like he states, you know, basically 255 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,280 Speaker 6: in a pace. I hate when people do this, when 256 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 6: there's something that's debatable or an opinion. 257 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 2: They're like, you're lying. No, not a lie. You just 258 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:31,120 Speaker 2: don't like what I'm saying. And she did that to 259 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 2: Ron a lot. 260 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: Also, there are things you can attack Ron DeSantis for 261 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: being good with facts is to me, not one of them, right. 262 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,200 Speaker 1: I mean, there are a lot of politicians. I think 263 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:45,640 Speaker 1: Joe Biden lies all the time, and I don't think 264 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: Joe Biden is particularly smart about the way he lies, 265 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: like he's just kind of ham handed and messy about it. 266 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:53,839 Speaker 1: I think Trump is bullying a china shop. I think 267 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,680 Speaker 1: he's just sometimes fast and loose with everything that he says. 268 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: I think he gets to the right place, but he 269 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,080 Speaker 1: just knocks over tons of stuff in the process. And 270 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: then DeSantis to me, actually seems at times blandly anti 271 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:13,319 Speaker 1: lying right, like just not enough sizzle on the stake 272 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: that he's got right. But that that seems really misguided 273 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: to me that Nicky Haley would go after Ron DeSantis 274 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: on the idea that he tells a lot of lies. 275 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:23,960 Speaker 1: I agree with you, and say it over and over 276 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: and over again repetitively. I don't know intellectually how they 277 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: would break down. I'll probably get in trouble for saying this, 278 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 1: but I'm just gonna bulldoze through it anyway. I think 279 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: Ron DeSantis is in a different class intellectually than Nicky 280 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 1: Haley is. 281 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 2: WHOA Clay went there? 282 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: Okay, that's when I watched the debate. I mean, Newsom 283 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 1: is smart. I think I think he's a real wiar 284 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:52,000 Speaker 1: I thought that Ron DeSantis was in a different intellectual 285 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 1: category with Nicky Haley head to head last night. Can 286 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: I put out there for right now, for this hour, 287 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: I would love to get anyone listening who vehemently disagrees 288 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:08,439 Speaker 1: with any assessment that we have right here, whether it's 289 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 1: I is inevitable me saying Nicki Haley had a bad night. 290 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't want anyone calling in for this. 291 00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 6: Hour to tell us how right we are, although we 292 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 6: do love you, and you are all geniuses who feel 293 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 6: that way. But anyone who wants to call in and 294 00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 6: really light us, I mean this, light us up on 295 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 6: one of these things. Because to me, I thought Nicky 296 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,120 Speaker 6: Haley had a terrible night last night. I mean, not 297 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 6: that it really matters, because I don't think she's gonna 298 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 6: be president, so who cares, you know? I thought, I 299 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 6: think Ron is always steady, he's always solid, he's always wrong, 300 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 6: but he's not a breakout performance guy. 301 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 2: He's a he does what he does guy. 302 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: He's a sports analogy buck. He is the guy who's 303 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: gonna get you the first down on third and one, 304 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: but he's never going to take it to the house. 305 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: There you go, so might lose twenty yards, but he 306 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: also might have a dazzling, you know, like ross the 307 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: field touchdown, right. I mean that that's the way that 308 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: I would kind of characterize him. 309 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,480 Speaker 6: So eight hundred two A two two AA two tell 310 00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 6: us what we are wrong about right now? 311 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: I want to take some of those all right. 312 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 1: Look, uh, buck Buck may even even heard about how 313 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: big this news is because so substantial.

If you disagree with anything that 388 00:18:59,840 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 1: we he said on the show, where you want to 389 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,159 Speaker 1: throw down over any opinions that we have shared in 390 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 1: the last several days. Uh, then you can call in 391 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:09,560 Speaker 1: I'm right about everything. You're probably gonna be angry about 392 00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: what Buck said, but we understand that eight hundred and 393 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: two eight two two eight eight two lots of people 394 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: want to uh want to react. I'm gonna let the 395 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: final tally of these calls get lined up and Buck, 396 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 1: we're talking about the Nicky Haley Ron DeSantis because this point, 397 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: it's fair to say, with Chris Christy officially out Viveke. 398 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: I love a lot of what Viveke has done. I 399 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: think Viveke super smart, really good at making arguments. Uh, 400 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: I think Viveke is out of the mix too, right. 401 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:47,040 Speaker 1: So really, what we have ended up with is what 402 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:49,199 Speaker 1: we've thought we were gonna get. It's just happening a 403 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: little bit earlier. We've got Nicky Haley, Ron DeSantis. Which 404 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: of those is gonna be the final man or woman 405 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 1: standing to go toe to toe with Donald Trump? And 406 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: then the second part of that is which of those candidates, 407 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: Nicky Haley or Rond De Santis, if either is capable 408 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 1: of actually beating Trump head to head in any of 409 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: these states as we come down the stretch. So I 410 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,359 Speaker 1: don't know what Viveke's gonna do. My guess is buck 411 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 1: that he will see how he does in Iowa, and 412 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: if he's top three, he'll take that as evidence that 413 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 1: he should continue. If he comes in fourth, I think 414 00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,560 Speaker 1: he'll probably go ahead and endorse Donald Trump. Maybe he 415 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 1: decides to wait till after New Hampshire. I don't think 416 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 1: he's pulling that highly in New Hampshire, but we know 417 00:20:36,840 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: because Vivikes come on this show and said he's going 418 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: to endorse Donald Trump. By the way, when I say that, 419 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 1: I watch Nicky Haley and Rond de Santis go toe 420 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: to toe, and I think that Rond de Santis is 421 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 1: intellectually superior on a different level than Nicky Haley. Doesn't 422 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 1: mean I think Nicky Haley's dumb. Just means that I 423 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: think Rond de Santis is way smarter. Now, do think 424 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 1: that Nikki Hayley connects better emotionally with people than Ron 425 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 1: de Sants. Sometimes super smart people, uh, and you probably 426 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: have experienced this in your life don't necessarily have the 427 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: same emotional IQ. Quot the EQ they call it as 428 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: they would the IQ. So I think Nicky is higher 429 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 1: on the EQ. I think that Ron is higher on 430 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: the IQ. 431 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 2: Uh. So we'll take some calls on this. 432 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 6: Buck, you agree, we have I remember, we want, we 433 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 6: want strongly disagree with Clay. Totally agree with Buck. He's 434 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:35,040 Speaker 6: always right. 435 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:39,880 Speaker 2: All right, here we go. We have Chris in Cleveland. 436 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:41,440 Speaker 2: Oh is he gone? Sorry? 437 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 4: He go? 438 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 2: Bob in Miamisburg, Ohio. Miamisburg. Yeah, oh wow, Yes, Miami's Burg. 439 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 2: Sorry about that? What's up, Bob? 440 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 5: Yes, it's the only Miamisburg in the United States, which 441 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 5: is kind of cool. 442 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 2: Anyway, I appreciate you, but you. 443 00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 5: Guys, this is uh, this is. 444 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,080 Speaker 7: A pretty interesting topic. I got to. 445 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 5: Watch the debate between Nicky Haley and Desanta's not terrible 446 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 5: job so and I think they were equally as terrible. 447 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 1: You dislike the performance from Ron DeSantis and Nicky Haley? 448 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 2: Are you a Trump supporter? 449 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 7: Yes? 450 00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 2: I am a Trump supporter. 451 00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 7: I'm not sure. My issue is I'm not sure that. 452 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 5: They're gonna let Trump get anywhere near. 453 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:33,159 Speaker 7: The White House. 454 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 2: Bob, who's your number two? Pick? Though? 455 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,160 Speaker 6: Who's who's your number two? If you couldn't have Trump, 456 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 6: Let's just say, if you didn't win the. 457 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 5: Primary debate, Ramaswami. 458 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 2: That, Okay, thanks for Paul. It doesn't surprise me. 459 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 1: It doesn't surprise me that if you like Trump, you 460 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 1: think Nicky Haley and Ron DeSantis stunk. I would suggest 461 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 1: that that might possibly be impacted by you liking Trump. 462 00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 1: And it also doesn't surprise me there's only four candidates left. 463 00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,440 Speaker 1: Most Trump people, i think, are going to say their 464 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: second favorite pick is the Vake because he's basically aligned 465 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 1: himself with Trump on everything right, he hasn't created very 466 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: much space other than he's a younger version of Trump. 467 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 6: The Vike creates a Trump Plan B for everybody. That's 468 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:21,439 Speaker 6: what the campaign is. It's Trump if you can't have Trump, 469 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 6: which really just means that the people that want THEVEC 470 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 6: as a second choice just want Trump, but they are. 471 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: By the way, might not be a bad spot. He 472 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 1: could get the VP potentially. Trump did say, and we'll 473 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 1: talk about this maybe in the second hour, that he 474 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: had already picked his VP, kind of we'll play that audio. 475 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 1: It's a little bit confusing. Andrew, Uh, do you buy 476 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 1: that I was gonna. 477 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 6: Say he would he would change Trump would change his 478 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 6: mind in a heart. I'm sure he's telling the truth 479 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 6: in so far as he's like, I've made my pick, 480 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 6: but he would change his mind and if you wanted to, 481 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,679 Speaker 6: and nobody would know the difference. And Arizona, Yeah, what 482 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 6: do he got?

I did not think that Nikki Hayley did 521 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 10: a horrible job last night. I thought she had the 522 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 10: best lifeline of any of them when she told to 523 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 10: do Drake University students not to turn this into a 524 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 10: drinking game about watching for for DeSantis lies because they 525 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,000 Speaker 10: get well over served.

I was 531 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 6: a little surprised she said this play five. 532 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,479 Speaker 9: I think ballots need to be accounted on election day 533 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 9: and you should get results on election day. But that 534 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 9: election Trump lost it. Biden won that election. And the 535 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,479 Speaker 9: idea that he's gone and carried this out forever to 536 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 9: the point that he's going to continue to say these 537 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 9: things to scare the American people are wrong. We've seen 538 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 9: a lot of states come together and do more election 539 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 9: integrity bills. We need to do more than that. We 540 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 9: still have three or four states that I'm worried about 541 00:26:42,440 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 9: that don't have that. But at the end of the day, 542 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 9: I will always defend and fight the Constant for the Constitution. 543 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 9: That's what we should do as Americans. I think what 544 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,720 Speaker 9: happened on January sixth was a terrible day, and I 545 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,479 Speaker 9: think President Trump will have to answer for it. 546 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 2: I'm just wondering, Charles. 547 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 6: I mean, if Trump is your number one and Nicky's 548 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 6: your number two, what do you make of Nicky saying 549 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:04,280 Speaker 6: Trump lost and January sixth is horrible and he's responsible? 550 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: Did he leave? 551 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 10: Yes, President Biden. 552 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 4: One. 553 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 10: Now, how many of those votes were counted illegally? How 554 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 10: many of those votes came about because the Pennsylvania and 555 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 10: other state supreme courts violated the federal Constitution and changed 556 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 10: the rules in the middle of the game. That's that's 557 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 10: my version of election interference. 558 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 1: Look, I think that's a good answer. Thank you for 559 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: the call, by the way, and Lexingtuck. 560 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 6: I just thought that was interesting because NICKI one criticism 561 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:41,159 Speaker 6: of Rohnda Santis from people I know who have been 562 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 6: all in, I mean, I know people that are openly 563 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 6: endorsing him and then in the media space, is that 564 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 6: he wanted to make the case without being overly harsh 565 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 6: on Trump supporters and some of their beliefs. Right, So 566 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,520 Speaker 6: he wasn't going to say things like Trump lost and 567 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 6: was being a cry baby about it and Janey or 568 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 6: a six was his fault, Like. 569 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 2: He didn't do that. Nicky Haley just said that. 570 00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 6: I mean, this is what she's saying on the stage, 571 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 6: And I think it's interesting that you got people that 572 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,959 Speaker 6: Trump is their number one, Nicki Haley is their number two. 573 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 6: You see what I mean. There's kind of a there's 574 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 6: a little bit. I think it's interesting because. 575 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 1: There's so many This is like four dimensional chess now 576 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: as you play out the game theory of how. 577 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 2: This thing's gonna shake out. 578 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 1: Right, So, if Trump is the nominee, then I don't think, 579 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: regardless of what happens, and I could be wrong and 580 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:35,919 Speaker 1: grab this, that Trump is still going to be a 581 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: viable candidate in twenty twenty eight, by which I mean 582 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: if Trump lost in twenty four at eighty one years old, 583 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: I don't think even the diehard Trump supporters are going 584 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: to say it's Trump or nobody else in twenty twenty eight, right, 585 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: I don't think. So I could be wrong and Trump 586 00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: will be eighty one, he'd be the same age that 587 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 1: Biden is now, and he'd be you know, a lot 588 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 1: different candidate in theory by that by that time. 589 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 2: Just tossing it out there. 590 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: So, if you are DeSantis, if you are Nicky Haley, 591 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: if you are vivike Aramaswami, the three people left in 592 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 1: this race right now, part of you is running maybe thinking, 593 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: at least in Nicky Haley and Vivik Aramaswami's case, maybe 594 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: I want to end up VP, but also thinking, hey, 595 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: by twenty twenty six, this is going to be a 596 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,120 Speaker 1: wide open primary, and I may be the favorite to 597 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: win in twenty twenty eight. 598 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 6: I just you know, Clay, For me, it's it's possible 599 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 6: to see the skill sets of all these different candidates, 600 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 6: and you know, you can break this down and put Trump. 601 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: Trump is kind of his own phenomenon. 602 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,479 Speaker 6: But you know, I would want I would want Viveig 603 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 6: to be the CEO of my company. I would want 604 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 6: Ron to be the governor of my state. And I 605 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 6: would want Nicki Haley to start my forever war. 606 00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? 607 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 1: Pretty to go, that's pretty good. I think that the 608 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: most effective president. Now everybody's gonna get really mad at me. 609 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,719 Speaker 1: I think the most effective nick president supporters would actually 610 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 1: be Ron DeSantis. I think the most effective communicator is 611 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 1: actually Donald Trump. I think the person that could win 612 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 1: the biggest landslide might. 613 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 2: Be Nicki Haley. 614 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 6: I the polls, she that is her most compelling point. 615 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 6: I mean to be fair and serious about this. For 616 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 6: a second poll show Nicki Haley undeniably annihilating, annihilating Joe Biden. 617 00:30:25,480 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 1: The suburban women are going to like Nicki Haley. And 618 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: by the way, I don't mean every suburban woman who 619 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: is listening to this show right now, because every every 620 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 1: Susan in America is going to call it, call in 621 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: right now and tell me that I don't know what 622 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: I'm talking about that because they love somebody else. In general, 623 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: for middle of the road voters, it's hard to demonize 624 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: Nicky Haley on abortion based on the answers that she 625 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:54,120 Speaker 1: has given. And by the way, I thought Trump did 626 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: a really good job handling an abortion question last night too. 627 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 1: It was like a five bean an answer. But I 628 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: think it's very hard to go after Donald Trump on 629 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 1: the abortion related issue as well. And I think there 630 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: are people out there that are starting to recognize that 631 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: as well.

Coming up, we 668 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 6: got Steven Miller, former senior advisor of Trump. 669 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 2: We're going to talk him about the border. 670 00:32:53,000 --> 00:32:55,280 Speaker 6: He was really the architect in many ways in the 671 00:32:55,320 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 6: Trump White House of the successful border control and immigration policy. 672 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 6: So we'll talk about what's going on now, which is 673 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 6: the opposite of successful border policies unless you want open borders, 674 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 6: which the Democrats do. And we also Speaker of the 675 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 6: House Johnson. The Speaker will be in the House or 676 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 6: on the air at least with us. I'm going to 677 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 6: ask him about this new spending deal. He also was 678 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 6: down to the border, but I kind of want to 679 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 6: ask him, Hey, is the new speaker different from the 680 00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 6: old speaker as in Kevin McCarthy. If so, how and why? 681 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 6: And I asked that in honesty, I want to know. 682 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:32,680 Speaker 6: I want him to explain what's different about what he's 683 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 6: doing versus what McCarthy would have done. 684 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,560 Speaker 2: I'm sure he'll have an answer, so we'll dive into that. 685 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 6: But Clay, one of the craziest moments from the debate 686 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 6: last night, because we're gonna be talking immigration with Steven 687 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,480 Speaker 6: Miller here in a few minutes, one of the craziest 688 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 6: moments was when CNN's Jake Tapper, and to be fair, 689 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 6: he cited this too. I think it's usually the census 690 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 6: data or whatever, but he said, according to and I 691 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 6: forget what I. 692 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 2: Think it was census data. Oh peugh. Sorry. 693 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 6: According to Pew, there are ten million illegals in the country. 694 00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 6: Listen this play six. 695 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 11: Governor DeSantis. There are more than ten million undocumented immigrants 696 00:34:09,160 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 11: already living in the United States, according to Pew Research. 697 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 11: Will any of them be allowed to stay in the 698 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 11: United States under your administration? 699 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 2: Now? 700 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:20,640 Speaker 6: To be what he said is accurate, right, you got 701 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,719 Speaker 6: to be. You know, Tapper's very precise. There are more 702 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:27,279 Speaker 6: than ten million. But you know that's like saying I'm 703 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 6: more than two feet tall, right, Like, yeah, doesn't really 704 00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 6: get you anywhere here. 705 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 2: Ten million. 706 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 6: And this is important, Clay, because the census stuff they 707 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 6: always look at it's been saying eleven million for like 708 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 6: the last decade. There are at least twenty million, probably 709 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 6: more like thirty million illegals living in the country, and 710 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 6: some very smart people say a whole lot more. 711 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 2: We can ask Steven Miller. 712 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 6: But I just think even putting that ten million number 713 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:52,560 Speaker 6: out there, I know that's the official number. 714 00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 2: The official number is a lie, everybody. It's a lie. 715 00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:58,319 Speaker 1: Well, particularly in light of the fact that we know 716 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:00,880 Speaker 1: what is it, Over six million have co in just 717 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: since Biden came into office, So the idea that it 718 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,560 Speaker 1: would be only ten million is kind of crazy, even 719 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: in the context of what we know has come in 720 00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: the last sew it's going to be under. 721 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 2: Biden, right by himself, Will in Tampa. What you got 722 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,040 Speaker 2: for us? 723 00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 7: Hey, love this show, Love the show, Thanks for having 724 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 7: me on. So my whole thing about this debates that 725 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 7: are going on, right is that how is it that the. 726 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:36,399 Speaker 8: Entire media, including radio shows like yourselves and I love 727 00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 8: you guys, but I'm calling you guys out on this 728 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,279 Speaker 8: where you don't give the platform if you will or 729 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 8: even the talking points of a third candidate, the Vikramaswami, 730 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 8: who is absolutely storming Iowa. 731 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,680 Speaker 1: Well, he's in fourth place. Thank you for the call. 732 00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: I think we've had the BAC on this show more 733 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 1: than we have anybody else. 734 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 6: I was going to say, we've had that candidate on 735 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 6: the air here more in the last six months than 736 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,160 Speaker 6: any other candidate. So, I mean, facts are facts. Now 737 00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 6: if we're not talking about him enough in Iowa, as 738 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,800 Speaker 6: you point out, I mean, he's in fourth place by 739 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 6: a mile, So I mean unless. 740 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: He's Vegas surprize based on every poll this out there, 741 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: Buck is right, he's in fourth place. And I don't 742 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: think there many people are saying it's going to be 743 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,720 Speaker 1: the final race is going to be the Vake versus Trump. 744 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody's making that argument. I think the 745 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,839 Speaker 1: VEC is the next to drop out. I think he's 746 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 1: been phenomenal in the campaign so far. But this is 747 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 1: a DeSantis versus Nicky Haley as the alternative to Trump, 748 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: you know race. 749 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 6: If you were writing this Game of Throne style and 750 00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 6: we're on this chapter, I guess you could say, maybe 751 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 6: it turns into the vacant RFK Junior team up in 752 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 6: the last moment to portray Trump and overthrow the dynasty. 753 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:49,280 Speaker 6: But I don't think that's gonna happen.
