1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:06,319 Speaker 1: Welcome in Friday edition. Clay Travis buck Sexton show. Sometimes 2 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: we get things right that aren't necessarily ideal for President Trump. 3 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 2: This was one of them. 4 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:20,120 Speaker 1: In the early morning hours year, early morning's, probably about 5 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: two hours ago, the Supreme Court released an opinion striking 6 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:29,720 Speaker 1: down President Trump's authority to put the tariffs in place 7 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,480 Speaker 1: that he put in place last April. 8 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 2: By the way, just. 9 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: Breaking right now, Caroline Levitt says President Trump will hold 10 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: a press briefing on the Supreme Court's tariff decision at 11 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: twelve forty five. I would imagine that we will go 12 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,199 Speaker 1: to that. But let me give you a little bit 13 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: of a medley, a montage of the media reporting about 14 00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: two hours ago that the tariffs were being being struck 15 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: down by the Supreme Court. 16 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 2: This is cut two. 17 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:04,680 Speaker 3: We are in breaking news here. 18 00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 4: Has just got that Supreme Court ruling in the last 19 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 4: hour six to three shooting down the president's use of 20 00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 4: AIPA tariffs. 21 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 3: The Supreme Court just struck down the bulk of President 22 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:18,360 Speaker 3: Trump's tariffs. 23 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 4: This is huge news. 24 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 3: This is happening as we speak. 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:26,600 Speaker 4: The President's emergency tariffs are illegal. A significant loss for 26 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 4: President Trump. 27 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 2: A major slap at the President of the United States. 28 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,200 Speaker 4: This now strikes down tariffs they're imposed to eighty countries. 29 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 4: This is the first time that the six to three 30 00:01:36,160 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 4: conservative court has ruled against President Trump. 31 00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:46,839 Speaker 1: Okay, a couple of months ago, we'll play this among others. 32 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: We have been telling you on this program that we 33 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,400 Speaker 1: thought that this would likely be a loss for Trump 34 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: in the wake of oral arguments. 35 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 4: Here was January on the program. Cut one. All right, 36 00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 4: I'm nervous about this one, Buck, I think the Supreme 37 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 4: Court is going to strike down some elements of President Trump. 38 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 4: I think this is one where the President's going to 39 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 4: get a pushback from the Supreme Court, and they are 40 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 4: going to have They're going to have a really complicated 41 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 4: situation here. My concern is that they're going to slap 42 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 4: him back some on this. We'll see, but I think 43 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 4: it could be a major pushback. 44 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So they did as we had forecast on the program. 45 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: Stock market, for those of you who care, basically seem 46 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: to expect that this ruling was going to come down. 47 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: The Dow relatively unmoved to the S and P five hundred, 48 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: up about four tenths of a percentage. So, Buck, here 49 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 1: is the complicated question going forward, I would wager a 50 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:52,639 Speaker 1: ton of money. We'll see when he comes on at 51 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: twelve forty five Eastern and has this press conference. I 52 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,600 Speaker 1: would wager a lot that President Trump will now cite 53 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: a new statutory authority to allow him to take executive 54 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: action on tariffs that will then be challenged and go 55 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: all the way back to the Supreme Court. Supreme Court 56 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 1: will be ruling on that in the meantime. I would 57 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 1: say the biggest outcome here is what if at all, 58 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: and this opinion does not focus on, it will happen 59 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: for people who claim tariff refunds arguing that this tariff 60 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 1: should not have been able to be put in place 61 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: and therefore the money should be returned to the companies 62 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 1: that have been paying the tariff. That's the biggest question 63 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: your take here, As this news came down this morning 64 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 1: before we came on the air. 65 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 4: Not unexpected at all, and I was going through the 66 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 4: decision this morning in some detail. 67 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: It's an interesting history here, right. 68 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 4: The President looks at this nineteen seventy seven AIPA law 69 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 4: and says, well, hold on a second, we have a 70 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 4: flood of illegal drugs coming from Canada, Mexico and China. 71 00:03:56,280 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 4: We have massive deficits which create an economic and even 72 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 4: maybe national security risk over the long term for the 73 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 4: United States. So he's going to take action. And it 74 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 4: seemed that in much of the back and forth in 75 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 4: the in the actual decision, the question is the action 76 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 4: was not explicit enough in that law. And even though 77 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,880 Speaker 4: it is explicit that the president could do far more 78 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 4: extreme things under this law, it seems the president could 79 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,359 Speaker 4: say no more steel from China. Period. 80 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 2: He could do that. 81 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,919 Speaker 4: He could say, you can't give us you can't import 82 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 4: any more steel from China national security risks, but he 83 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 4: can't say, again, according to the six to three majority here, 84 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 4: which included Roberts and Gorsich and of course amy Cony Barrett, 85 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 4: what you can't do is say there's a ten percent 86 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:50,160 Speaker 4: tariff now for national security reasons or for emergency reasons 87 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:53,679 Speaker 4: that goes into effect. There was a lot of argument 88 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 4: over so you're saying he can do a deminimus thing 89 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 4: or an extreme thing, but he can't do meaning the 90 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 4: little tiny regulations around these issues, a massive shutdown of 91 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 4: these things, of these imports of imports coming into the country, 92 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 4: but you can't tax them. And they say you can't 93 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 4: tax them because that's left to Congress. That is a 94 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 4: constitutional power. It is the sort of fundamental foundational unfortunately, 95 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 4: the constitutional power left of the United States Congress. So 96 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,280 Speaker 4: there's a lot of back and forth over that. I 97 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:30,720 Speaker 4: think you're right about the logistics now getting it's going 98 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 4: to get interesting to see. So do companies actually get 99 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 4: money back from the government that the government's taken in? 100 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 4: Is that what's going to happen. Do they all have 101 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,840 Speaker 4: to go and seek suit individually? Is there some what 102 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 4: happens now to the large sum hundreds of billions of 103 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 4: dollars that have been taken in as a result of this. 104 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 4: The markets haven't been spooked at all by it so far, 105 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 4: which means I think the reality here was priced in 106 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,039 Speaker 4: that this was probably going to be the outcome. Neither 107 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 4: you nor I surprised by it. One thing I do 108 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:02,000 Speaker 4: think is interesting is it completely changes the tariff debate, 109 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 4: Meaning what Trump has done has shown that you can 110 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 4: in fact impose tariffs. It will not destroy the economy. 111 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 4: It will bring in hundreds of billions of dollars of revenue. 112 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 4: Every other country does this. Maybe this is something we 113 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 4: should think about. It changes the the tariffs are you know, 114 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 4: lead to trade wars. Trade ward lead to real wars. 115 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,520 Speaker 4: Changes that discussion, I think Clay going forward, we'll see 116 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,920 Speaker 4: it'd be really interesting if you call this one. I'll 117 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 4: be very impressed that Trump just comes out and says, Okay, 118 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 4: tariff's now under the following authority. Everything stays exactly as is, 119 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 4: and then he buys himself another Well, it depends how 120 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 4: fast the Supreme Court tries to move on this, but 121 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 4: he would buy himself that have to go through the courts, 122 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 4: that have to be more process. That would be very interesting. 123 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:51,919 Speaker 1: I think I would bet almost one hundred percent chance 124 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 1: that's what he's gonna do, and he will basically try 125 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: to run out the clock on the remainder of his 126 00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,799 Speaker 1: term as it pertains to tariffs. 127 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: I think your point is a good one. 128 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,320 Speaker 4: Back in April of last year, everybody told us, oh 129 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 4: my goodness, this is going to destroy the economy. 130 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 2: We're going to have a recession. 131 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: Instead, we're sitting at record high stock market prices. The overall, 132 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: as we said yesterday, mortgage rates have come down, inflation 133 00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 1: has come down. GDP numbers were not great this morning, 134 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: but they were great in the fourth quarter. In A 135 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: large part of the GDP issues was the huge shutdown 136 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: that we had that went on at the end of 137 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: last year. I think everything is poised as people are 138 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: set for record amounts of money back refunds from the 139 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: government associated with the President's big tax cut. Lots of 140 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: people are going to get thousands and thousands of dollars 141 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: more than they expect, and then they will go spend 142 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: that money and that will juice the economy to a 143 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: large extent in the spring and the summer of this year. 144 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: So to me, President Trump's going to cite different authority 145 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 1: almost one hundred percent. He may even be explicit in 146 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: that when he comes out in about thirty minutes talks 147 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 1: about it. Here's my big picture analysis and why I 148 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: thought the Supreme Court would strike down President Trump on tariffs. 149 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: This actually makes me wonder what they're going to give 150 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: a yes to Trump on. And some people who are 151 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: lawyers get upset with me when I talk about the 152 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: fact that the Supreme Court is clearly cognizant of its 153 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: political standing and if they give Trump everything, even if 154 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 1: they think that he has a strong legal argument, if 155 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: they give Trump everything, then they say, oh, it's a 156 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: rubber stamp for Trump. The Supreme Court has no legitimacy. 157 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Notice how all of a sudden MSNBC loves the Supreme 158 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 1: Court and loves how much they're willing to stand on 159 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: principle and everything else. There are many complicated cases that 160 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 1: are still before the Supreme Court right now that would 161 00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: be I think, far more consequential than the tariff ruling. 162 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,679 Speaker 1: Let me give you a couple of them. What are 163 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: they going to say about the law as it pertains 164 00:08:57,280 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: to racial jerry manders. I think they're going to strike 165 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,679 Speaker 1: down Buck. I think they're going to say, basically, in 166 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 1: this modern era in which we live, the idea of 167 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: allowing a racial gerrymander is unconstitutional. That could potentially cost 168 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: Democrats around twenty seats according to some of the analysis 169 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 1: that I have seen of what the impact of that 170 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 1: decision would be. Also, birthright citizenship, I would argue maybe 171 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 1: the most foundational and transformational of the cases that the 172 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: Supreme Court is facing right now and waiting to render 173 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: a verdict on is birthright citizenship. Are they going to 174 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:39,800 Speaker 1: slap down Trump's interpretation of birthright citizenship, which says merely 175 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 1: being born on the soil of the United States does 176 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: not make you a citizen. If they're going to make 177 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 1: some interesting rulings on those cases racial germandering and Supreme you. 178 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 4: Think they've given themselves some leeway here to give Trump 179 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 4: some things that are going to make the left go 180 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 4: completely insane. 181 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 2: I don't think you're wrong. 182 00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 4: I think John Roberts clearly has that in mind as 183 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 4: he goes forward on some of this, as probably does 184 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,720 Speaker 4: Amy Coney Barrett, and on the birthright citizenship issue. I 185 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,559 Speaker 4: don't think, with the exception maybe of Thomas and Alito, 186 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 4: I don't think any of those justices want to give 187 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:17,040 Speaker 4: the decision that it is in fact not. 188 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: They don't want to take the heat. 189 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 4: I don't think they want to do that. But I 190 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 4: think they recognize the alternative is to really open the 191 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 4: door to the dissolution of American sovereignty entirely, and to 192 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 4: create a special category where the violation of law creates 193 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:38,199 Speaker 4: a permanent and fantastic benefit. Yes, which is a really 194 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 4: bad thing for a Supreme Court to do, a really 195 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:44,120 Speaker 4: really bad thing. And so I'm I think that they're 196 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 4: you know, on that one. I do believe that the 197 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 4: left is gonna be at an absolute moment of apoplexia 198 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:52,439 Speaker 4: over it. 199 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,680 Speaker 1: Both of those, and I'm not saying necessarily that I 200 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: think he's gonna win both of them, but I think 201 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna end racial jerrymandering. I would expect that that 202 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 1: is going to happen. Birthright citizenship, I think is going 203 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: to be a close call. And Justice Roberts is a 204 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: notoriously political Chief Justice, and we saw it with Obamacare, 205 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 1: We've seen it with a lot of the decisions that 206 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: he makes. He tries to give and take every single 207 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: General session that they bring to bear all these different 208 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 1: Supreme Court cases. So I think he sees this as, hey, 209 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: we're going to rebuke President Trump. We're going to establish 210 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: that we are still the law of the land and 211 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: we aren't rubber stamping him. Remember, there's been a lot 212 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: of criticism. I think they got this right on the 213 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 1: Supreme Court with all the presidential powers questions. We told 214 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: you on this program that Trump was going to get 215 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: presidential powers, but Trump's going to be gone in January 216 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: of twenty nine. These powers, rulings on executive privilege and 217 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 1: power and criminal charges and all those things are going 218 00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 1: to extend to every president for the rest of our 219 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 1: lives and hopefully for hundreds of years, and so here 220 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 1: I think they I think they wanted to rebuke him. 221 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: I think they wanted to slap him back. I think 222 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: he's going to now cite different authority, and we're going 223 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: to go right back into the legislator, back into the 224 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: judicial system determining whether or not the president has the authority. Also, 225 00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,839 Speaker 1: Congress could act, it's worth mentioning, but everybody out there 226 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 1: basically has determined that Congress can't do anything. But they 227 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 1: could say the president has the authority to do these tariffs. 228 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:30,320 Speaker 1: They can't pass anything. And so I don't have a 229 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 1: lot of faith in the legislative branch to actually weigh 230 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 1: in on what the Supreme Court said. 231 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 4: It is their job to be weighing in on. Yes, 232 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 4: I think that is I think that is accurate. By 233 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:45,000 Speaker 4: the way, Manufacturing Delusion is still a bestseller on Amazon, 234 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 4: my friends, but we lost a slot yesterday. 235 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 2: We dropped down a spot which is. 236 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 4: Said, there is a autobiography of a former exotic dancer 237 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 4: who is married to a country music singer that is 238 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 4: now the number one book on Amazon in the in 239 00:12:59,240 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 4: the world. 240 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 2: Clay, this is what the world. 241 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: Has come to jelly Roll is a popular guy.

He's a big sports fan. 345 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: That's all I know about him. But he was super 346 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: nice to my family when we set next to each 347 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 1: other a while back. And as for Bunny XO, she's 348 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:53,840 Speaker 1: won the week and a redemption story. People love it. 349 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: Kind of a major faith based on a lot of 350 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 1: redemption that we could talk about. 351 00:17:58,920 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 2: All right. 352 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 4: The cell phone service doesn't come with a big price tag. 353 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 4: In fact, it's quite the opposite. For just twenty five 354 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 4: dollars a month, Puretalk gives you unlimited talk, text, and 355 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,920 Speaker 4: plenty of data. If you want unlimited data, it's just 356 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 4: a few dollars more a month. Our families rely on 357 00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,000 Speaker 4: Puretalk for excellent cell phone service and excellent customer service 358 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 4: as well. If your current cell phone companies at and T, 359 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,240 Speaker 4: T Mobile or Verizon make the switch and save the 360 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 4: money while not sacrificing any quality. Pure Talk services on 361 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 4: the same towers and networks, so it's the exact same 362 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,879 Speaker 4: five gen nationwide service. In fact, the only difference is 363 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:33,320 Speaker 4: that Puretalk guarantees their customer service team as all US based. 364 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 4: You can keep your number and your phone. There's no contract, 365 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:37,560 Speaker 4: no cancelation fee either. 366 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 2: With pure Talk. 367 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:41,680 Speaker 4: Just dial pound two fifty say the keywords Clay and 368 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 4: Buck and you'll get fifty percent off your first month.

Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. 372 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck Sexton Show. Okay, I 373 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 1: got that super positive, So we talked about tariffs off 374 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: the top. Yesterday I watched a bunch of the Winter Olympics. 375 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 1: We had the US women's hockey team win over Canada 376 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: in overtime, an absolute awesome goal for our women to 377 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 1: win two to one. And last night, it's funny. During 378 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: the commercial break, I asked, Buck, hey, did you watch 379 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: figure skating last night? Lara wanted to Laura, my wife, 380 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: wanted to put on figure skating, so I sat and 381 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 1: watched figure skating last night with her, and Alyssa Lou 382 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: won a gold medal in women's figure skating, the first 383 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: one that we have won in twenty four years. So 384 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: both those stories are great. But let me tell you 385 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: something about the Alyssa Lou story that makes it even 386 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 1: more fantastic. Alyssa Lu's dad, Arthur, fled China in nineteen 387 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: eighty nine after the Tianamen Square incident, the clampdown on 388 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 1: Democrats protesters in China, and moved to the United States 389 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: as an actual refugee, got married, had his daughter, his daughter. 390 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: They have a bunch of different kids. His daughter becomes 391 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: an elite figure skater. In twenty twenty two, Buck China 392 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: showed up because her dad is Chinese and offered the 393 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 1: family millions and millions of dollars if Elyssa would flip 394 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 1: from her citizenship in the United States and become a 395 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: Chinese figure skater because they are so committed to fighting communism. 396 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,800 Speaker 1: Arthur and his daughter Alyssa turned down millions of dollars 397 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: from communists China and refused to change her citizenship for 398 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 1: purposes of the Olympics, and last night she won the 399 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,080 Speaker 1: first gold medal for the United States since I believe 400 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 1: Sarah Hughes twenty four years ago. Sarah Hughes, I think 401 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: was her name, was in the crowd that was back 402 00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 1: in two thousand and two. Okay Buck contrasting that this 403 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: story should get way more attention. Eileen Gou is a 404 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 1: top skater in the Winter Olympics. Has won multiple gold medals, 405 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: has won a couple of silver medals. This year, she 406 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 1: did the exact opposite. She was born and raised in 407 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: the United States. She's a student at Stanford. She chose 408 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:25,880 Speaker 1: when China offered her millions of dollars to flip her 409 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: country from the United States, where she was born and 410 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 1: raised and where she goes to college, to accept millions 411 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: of dollars from communist China. She was asked about the 412 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: Wigers concentration camp slave labor said, I don't really know enough. 413 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing her to give you an answer on that situation. 414 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: So she, Eileen gu took millions and millions of dollars 415 00:21:50,359 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: from China. There are reports that she has now become 416 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: a Chinese citizen, which we were talking about outside of 417 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 1: off air. I don't think you should be able to 418 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: just change your citizenship and get to remain an American. 419 00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 1: Like if she's competing for China, now screw her. 420 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 4: She should be going to total citizen. I think your 421 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:14,960 Speaker 4: buddy Inas Canters called her, or said it was treason 422 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 4: or something. Right, he had very strong words. Or INA's 423 00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 4: Canter Freedom. 424 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 2: Isn't that his name? 425 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you're right, Yeah, he spoke out about it. Look, 426 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 4: I don't I don't think that America should allow dual citizenship. 427 00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 4: So I go even further, don't, don't agree with it, 428 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:31,680 Speaker 4: don't think it's okay something that comes up, by the way, 429 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 4: and background investigations. The truth of the matter is when 430 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 4: push comes to shove, when it comes to giving you 431 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 4: access to very sensitive government secrets, they do have concerns 432 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,639 Speaker 4: over dual citizenship. That actually does come up. So the 433 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 4: notion that it isn't an issue, or that we don't 434 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 4: think about it in that context is is a fantasy. 435 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:52,920 Speaker 4: And so yeah, I know a lot of people would 436 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 4: be like, but I have, like my EU passport because 437 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 4: of my Irish ancestry, or I have a I understand that, 438 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 4: and I know that it's legal now and lucky for you, 439 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 4: you can go and travel to the EU or you 440 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,720 Speaker 4: can go to wherever you have your dual citizenship. I 441 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,360 Speaker 4: disagree with it. I think you should have if you're 442 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 4: a citizen of this country, you should be a citizen 443 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 4: of America, and that is it. 444 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 2: Go ahead. 445 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:16,119 Speaker 1: I think if you represent a foreign country in the 446 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: Olympics and that requires you to become a citizen of 447 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 1: a country you've never been in before, I don't think 448 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 1: that you should be able to retain your American citizenship. 449 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think that's a controversial take on 450 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: Eileen Gou. I mean, she sold out for millions of dollars. 451 00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 1: And here's the worst part, buck, I don't even know 452 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,640 Speaker 1: that she's making that much more money in China than 453 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 1: she would make in the United States. She's a young, attractive, 454 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: highly successful, smart athlete. I tend to think money would 455 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: follow that no matter where you go. So it feels 456 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: very political to me. In other words, this is not 457 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 1: a situation where if she were representing I don't know, 458 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,159 Speaker 1: Moldova and she decided to go to China, I would say, oh, 459 00:23:58,240 --> 00:24:01,679 Speaker 1: you know what, she's chasing millions of dollars. That feels 460 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 1: more economic in nature, which is also attackable, but This 461 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: feels very political too, because I'm not even convinced she 462 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,959 Speaker 1: would make that much more money. And again contrasting her 463 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 1: choice with Alyssa lose choice, I think is that this 464 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: Alyssa lose story should be way bigger than it is 465 00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: her dad leaving China coming here. I mean, this is 466 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,640 Speaker 1: exactly what we want people to do when they come 467 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: to the United States. 468 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:29,480 Speaker 4: Yes, and of course you also have some of these 469 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 4: Olympic competitors that I don't follow winter the Winter Olympics release, 470 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,400 Speaker 4: so I'd never heard of any of these people before. 471 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 2: But you have these Olympic competitors. 472 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 4: Clay, who have spoken out about how they're uncomfortable with America. Meanwhile, 473 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,320 Speaker 4: the people that are competing, including this American who's being 474 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,160 Speaker 4: competing on behalf of China, nothing about China's human rights 475 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 4: record or any concerns there at all. 476 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 2: No, everyone shuts their trap when it comes to China. 477 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,720 Speaker 1: But we have American who was specifically honest about it 478 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 1: and said absolutely nothing, like just stumbled around it. And 479 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 1: she's a I think she had a perfect score SAT 480 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,239 Speaker 1: and she goes to Stanford. So when somebody who has 481 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: a perfect score SAT goes to Stanford, chooses to represent 482 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 1: a different country and then gets asked about the country 483 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: and says, I don't really know enough to have an 484 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 1: opinion on that. That's a total why all right, you 485 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: are dodging the fact that they're doing a slave labor 486 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: and you're afraid to address it. You know, there are 487 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 1: some people where you would say, Okay, I don't think 488 00:25:27,359 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 1: you know, you don't have the mental capacity to analyze this. 489 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: If you're a perfect score sat kid at Stanford, you 490 00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: can analyze what the weaker situation is in China. I 491 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 1: think you have the mental faculties to do so. 492 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:44,479 Speaker 4: Some people look, look, I think that China has been 493 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 4: buying off Americans and American commerce for a long time, 494 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,200 Speaker 4: and the Mid East is now buying off people too. 495 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 4: By the way, the Mid East has figured out that 496 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 4: you can throw a lot of money at people under 497 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 4: the guys of commerce and you know, free, free and 498 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 4: fair exchange of goods and services, when you're really buying 499 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 4: favoritism and access. At the policy level, this is a 500 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 4: problem everybody. China has been doing this for a long time, 501 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 4: and they've mostly focused on the corporate side of it, 502 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 4: although a lot of individuals obviously benefit At those corporations. 503 00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,199 Speaker 4: But China has wielded the carrots and sticks very aggressively 504 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 4: on this issue and successfully, I might add, right, this 505 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 4: is why you know all about this some of the 506 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 4: NBA controversies. Right, if you say anything bad about talking 507 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 4: about China and you're an NBA player or manager or coach, 508 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 4: all of a sudden everyone flips out. But you can say, 509 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 4: you know, you can put your hoodie up and say 510 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 4: America is so racist and horrible. And we're all supposed 511 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 4: to say, oh, that's just free speech, and we're going 512 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 4: to keep paying you millions of dollars to watch your games. 513 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 4: But the truth is you're seeing this now with the 514 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 4: Mid East as well. This is this is not good. 515 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 4: It's not a good situation. And I also the all 516 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 4: the arguments in favor of dual citizenship are entirely uncompelling 517 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:57,320 Speaker 4: to me. 518 00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 2: It's stuff like. 519 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 4: Easier freedom of travel and like more, you know, like 520 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 4: ease of business. I'm like, yeah, okay, But loyalty to 521 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,640 Speaker 4: a country is a very important thing, you know. Clay 522 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 4: It says, it's the truth here that if you have 523 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 4: a Russian national, for example, in this country and they 524 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:15,959 Speaker 4: make it back to rus they can do anything they 525 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 4: want here. If they get back to Russia, they're never 526 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,399 Speaker 4: being they're never being sent to face US justice. I mean, 527 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 4: there's real places where the rubber meets the road on 528 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,479 Speaker 4: this stuff. So I do not understand. And it's only 529 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 4: been since nineteen sixty seven, to be clear, this is 530 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,639 Speaker 4: a relatively new phenomenon. It's not like, you know, the 531 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 4: Founding Fathers weren't like ay, well, I don't know when 532 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 4: passports were first really a thing either. But you know, 533 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,560 Speaker 4: the point is, this is a new phenomenon, and it's 534 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 4: not one that I think we should just let pass 535 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 4: I don't think people should be able to have to 536 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,040 Speaker 4: You can have if you want to have another passport, 537 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 4: that's fine. You're just renouncing your US citizenship. You're a 538 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 4: citizen of some other country. Fine, you know that's free 539 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 4: and fair association. I do not understand how you claim 540 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 4: to be a citizen of both countries. You know, there's 541 00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 4: some inherent conflict of interest going on there. As far 542 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 4: as I can see it, I've never heard a compelling 543 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 4: argument otherwise other than but. 544 00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:05,760 Speaker 2: What about when I want to go on vacation to Italy? Well, 545 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 2: you know, get a visa First of all, you don't 546 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 2: even need a visa. 547 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: But you know what I'm saying, You get through the 548 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: lines faster is the most you can tell lines fact 549 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 1: that typically is happening there. But I do think it's 550 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: interesting that Aileen Gu in theory, is allowed to be 551 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: an American and a Chinese citizen, but according to Chinese law, 552 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,719 Speaker 1: would not be allowed to be a China and American citizen, 553 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 1: right like, she can't represent That's what I'm told. 554 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 2: I did research on this. 555 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 1: You can't represent China unless you are a Chinese citizen, 556 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 1: and typically China requires that you renounce the citizenship of 557 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 1: another country in order to represent them. Now, Eileen Gu 558 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 1: has avoided answering the question of whether she has renounced 559 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: her American citizenship or not. 560 00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 4: She's been asked. That's my understanding. I did a bunch 561 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 4: of research on this last night. 562 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: Many of you went away in we'll take some of 563 00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 1: your calls, and we're also expecting a press conference from 564 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: the President of the United States here are coming up 565 00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: in a moment. Let's see who should we go to first? Here, 566 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: Let's go to art in Washington, Georgia. 567 00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 4: Art. 568 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 2: What you got for us? 569 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 6: Hey, you already touched on what I called in about, 570 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 6: you know, about the the teriff issue. Whereas I was thinking, 571 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 6: you know, now that Trump knows what's going on, all 572 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 6: the you got to do is look and say, okay, 573 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 6: what terrorshires so intact, and let's use that authority. Let's 574 00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,200 Speaker 6: go back and we'll redo all of these and it'll 575 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 6: be tough to you know, tough luck, you know, you know, 576 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 6: that's the way it goes, you know, because I'm really 577 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 6: concerned that, you know, these countries that have been paying 578 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,560 Speaker 6: in and now don't have to pay in anymore, they 579 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 6: might sue us for that money. Dude, And if they 580 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 6: do that, what do you think, how do you think 581 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 6: that would impact our economy? 582 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 1: Well, this is what thank you for the call. This 583 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 1: is what we talked about when we said we thought 584 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: this would be struck down. The complicated thing is not 585 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 1: analyzing the legislative authority and whether the president had it. 586 00:29:58,360 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: It is what do you do if you determined that 587 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: the answer is no, Because then all of the hundreds 588 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: of billions of dollars of tariffs that have been taken 589 00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:09,760 Speaker 1: in technically were not legal, and all of those companies 590 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: that have paid the tariffs are then going to sue 591 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: and argue that they are entitled to a refund. That 592 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: process is going to continue to play out. By the way, 593 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: this is what I was talking about Brett Kavanaugh's descent. 594 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: He specifically said the President could potentially be able to 595 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:28,959 Speaker 1: justify all of his tariffs if he had simply cited 596 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: other authority that is different than the one that he 597 00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:36,560 Speaker 1: did cite. And Kavanaugh specifically said the Trade Expansion Act 598 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: of nineteen sixty two, the Trade Act of nineteen seventy four, 599 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 1: and the Tariff Act of nineteen thirty And here's a 600 00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:48,320 Speaker 1: direct quote from Justice Kavanaugh's dissent in essence to Court 601 00:30:48,400 --> 00:30:52,200 Speaker 1: today concluded the President checked the wrong statutory box by 602 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:58,479 Speaker 1: relying on IEEPA rather than another statute to impose these tariffs. 603 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 1: Which is why Buck, I think he is likely to 604 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: come out and simply say, hey, I'm going to put 605 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:10,080 Speaker 1: tariffs on and now my new authority is as follows. 606 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: That'll get challenged, could run out the whole Trump presidency 607 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: as he keeps jumping from one legislative authority to another 608 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: to justify the trade acts. Yeah, if we remember Barack Obama, 609 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 1: even Trump has never said he does not have this authority. 610 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,960 Speaker 1: To be clear, Barack Obama when he so, it's not 611 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 1: like he said I can't do this, and then he 612 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: did it. Barack Obama pioneered this new thing of being 613 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 1: the president. You say, guys, I need Congress to do 614 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 1: this thing. I'm totally not allowed to do it. And 615 00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: then he's like, I got a pen in a phone, 616 00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna do it. 617 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 2: I think Biden even crazier one buck. 618 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 1: Biden said I can't do this, but I'm gonna do 619 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 1: it anyway, just because we're gonna build more time in 620 00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 1: Remember when he, for instance, I think it was the student, 621 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: the student. 622 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 2: Loan, the the the. 623 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 1: Ability to not pay rent, all those things during COVID, 624 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: he flagrantly knew he didn't have the ability to do it, 625 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: but just knew it would take a while for the 626 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: Supreme Court to tell him that, and so he did it, 627 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: just relying on the more time that it was gonna take. 628 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,680 Speaker 1: And again, I think Trump in some ways can just 629 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: keep citing different statutory authority and run this thing out 630 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: for another several years. 631 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 2: Carrie and I are homebodies, that is for sure. 632 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 4: If you want a fun party guy, you got to 633 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 4: hang out with Clay because I like to throw on 634 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 4: the pjs as fast as I can and snuggle up 635 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 4: with Ginger and speed and carry on the couch.
