1 00:00:10,097 --> 00:00:12,657 Speaker 1: Hey guys, welcome to the Buck Brief.

I'm very excited. Thank 7 00:00:29,897 --> 00:00:33,217 Speaker 2: you for letting me in on your Marvel universe of 8 00:00:33,377 --> 00:00:34,337 Speaker 2: podcast hosts. 9 00:00:34,417 --> 00:00:36,657 Speaker 1: It'll be awesome. That's right, we got, we got Ryan, 10 00:00:36,977 --> 00:00:42,377 Speaker 1: Carol Tutor, Sean Parnell. Great great stuff going on there. 11 00:00:42,417 --> 00:00:45,657 Speaker 1: But let's since it's a numbers game, talk me. Talk 12 00:00:45,737 --> 00:00:50,417 Speaker 1: me through this number. The seven million votes that Biden 13 00:00:50,537 --> 00:00:53,537 Speaker 1: got in twenty twenty that we are now at one point, 14 00:00:53,577 --> 00:00:55,337 Speaker 1: it was fifteen million, right, but they had to count 15 00:00:55,337 --> 00:00:59,177 Speaker 1: California and a few other places. But it's seven millions a 16 00:00:59,217 --> 00:01:02,177 Speaker 1: lot of votes. And Trump went up a couple million 17 00:01:02,257 --> 00:01:07,017 Speaker 1: from twenty twenty two, Kamala dropped seven million. What can 18 00:01:07,057 --> 00:01:10,017 Speaker 1: you tell us about this gap? Because people got questions, 19 00:01:10,297 --> 00:01:12,417 Speaker 1: a lot of questions right right now. 20 00:01:12,497 --> 00:01:14,017 Speaker 2: I get it, I mean, I get the questions. I 21 00:01:14,017 --> 00:01:16,137 Speaker 2: was actually looking for the exact number as of today, 22 00:01:16,537 --> 00:01:19,137 Speaker 2: the exactly because they just threw in, you know, two 23 00:01:19,297 --> 00:01:21,217 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty thousand votes from New York that it 24 00:01:21,257 --> 00:01:24,097 Speaker 2: was delayed in counting. So right now Trump is seventy 25 00:01:24,097 --> 00:01:27,577 Speaker 2: seven point one nine three million votes, Kamala Harris is 26 00:01:27,617 --> 00:01:30,857 Speaker 2: seventy four point nine million, so she's about seventy five 27 00:01:30,897 --> 00:01:34,457 Speaker 2: and he's about seventy seven point two. Biden got eighty 28 00:01:34,537 --> 00:01:39,577 Speaker 2: one point two, so she's about six point two million under. Okay, 29 00:01:40,137 --> 00:01:42,657 Speaker 2: what that's a lot of voats, that's a lot of votes. 30 00:01:42,777 --> 00:01:44,617 Speaker 2: It was at one point fifteen million. As you said, 31 00:01:45,057 --> 00:01:47,217 Speaker 2: blue states are very slow accounting the votes, so it 32 00:01:47,257 --> 00:01:49,297 Speaker 2: was going to get lower and lower. But there's really 33 00:01:49,337 --> 00:01:51,937 Speaker 2: nothing left to count unless they pull out a big 34 00:01:52,017 --> 00:01:53,577 Speaker 2: number out like New Jersey or whatever. But I think 35 00:01:53,577 --> 00:01:58,417 Speaker 2: they certified New Jersey. So where you see the drop, 36 00:01:58,537 --> 00:02:02,217 Speaker 2: the tremendous drop in votes is in places like New York, 37 00:02:02,497 --> 00:02:07,737 Speaker 2: New Jersey, California, These very very blue states, Georgia, Michigan, 38 00:02:07,817 --> 00:02:13,297 Speaker 2: North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Arizona, Big surgeon voting, Big surgeon 39 00:02:13,377 --> 00:02:18,257 Speaker 2: New voting. So what Washington State and Oregon you dropped Portland, 40 00:02:18,657 --> 00:02:21,057 Speaker 2: you drop out of the city of Portland, and in 41 00:02:21,137 --> 00:02:24,417 Speaker 2: the early vote going into election day, you saw Portland 42 00:02:24,457 --> 00:02:27,377 Speaker 2: was not showing up. So what it says to me 43 00:02:27,657 --> 00:02:29,777 Speaker 2: is two things. One, it was a big drop of 44 00:02:29,817 --> 00:02:33,057 Speaker 2: minorities turning up. The reason I thought that Trump was 45 00:02:33,097 --> 00:02:35,777 Speaker 2: probably gonna win at seven thirty on election night was 46 00:02:36,257 --> 00:02:39,697 Speaker 2: the minority vote. The Black vote, which is usually thirteen 47 00:02:39,737 --> 00:02:43,857 Speaker 2: percent of the national vote, was eleven percent, two percent dropage. Overall, 48 00:02:44,177 --> 00:02:46,617 Speaker 2: Hispanic vote was usually thirteen percent. I think it was 49 00:02:46,657 --> 00:02:49,017 Speaker 2: a twelve percent. And the white vote had actually climbed 50 00:02:49,257 --> 00:02:52,577 Speaker 2: three to four points of the overall national vote. If 51 00:02:52,617 --> 00:02:55,137 Speaker 2: you look at where the votes were coming from, it's 52 00:02:55,217 --> 00:02:58,217 Speaker 2: in these very, very blue states. So two things may 53 00:02:58,257 --> 00:03:01,817 Speaker 2: have happened. One, they left the states during COVID and 54 00:03:01,857 --> 00:03:04,857 Speaker 2: they never registered to vote, which is very very possible 55 00:03:05,017 --> 00:03:07,337 Speaker 2: twenty twenty, they moved out of New York, New Jersey 56 00:03:07,337 --> 00:03:10,697 Speaker 2: and California when these draconian laws were happening, they didn't vote, 57 00:03:12,097 --> 00:03:15,777 Speaker 2: or the access to early easy voting with mail and 58 00:03:15,857 --> 00:03:18,297 Speaker 2: voters propelled a lot of the vote that didn't shop 59 00:03:18,377 --> 00:03:22,577 Speaker 2: the second time or lastly, a lot of minorities. And 60 00:03:22,577 --> 00:03:24,137 Speaker 2: this is what the New York Times Nate com is 61 00:03:24,137 --> 00:03:27,977 Speaker 2: saying today. The minorities who were most likely to vote 62 00:03:28,017 --> 00:03:31,857 Speaker 2: for Donald Trump didn't show up. So I think there 63 00:03:31,937 --> 00:03:34,657 Speaker 2: was the black voters on like sixty six percent of 64 00:03:34,697 --> 00:03:38,857 Speaker 2: blacks who wanted to vote for Trump, or sixty people 65 00:03:38,897 --> 00:03:40,857 Speaker 2: blacks who did not vote wanted to overcome with thirty 66 00:03:40,857 --> 00:03:43,017 Speaker 2: four percent want to vote for Trump, so one in 67 00:03:43,097 --> 00:03:47,377 Speaker 2: three versus sixteen percent that they got nationally, and feeling conflicted, 68 00:03:47,417 --> 00:03:50,297 Speaker 2: they chose the couch. I think that I really do 69 00:03:50,417 --> 00:03:53,297 Speaker 2: believe that they're because the idea that Trump was this 70 00:03:53,657 --> 00:03:59,497 Speaker 2: existential crisis that they had been propelling and pushing for years. 71 00:03:59,977 --> 00:04:02,697 Speaker 2: And we'd had four years from being president, and you know, 72 00:04:02,737 --> 00:04:04,497 Speaker 2: we didn't get involved in World War Three, and you know, 73 00:04:04,577 --> 00:04:06,897 Speaker 2: everyone didn't go into interming camps and all these lies 74 00:04:06,977 --> 00:04:09,337 Speaker 2: the Democrats had for all these years. I think a 75 00:04:09,337 --> 00:04:11,537 Speaker 2: lot of people were okay with Trump being president, even 76 00:04:11,537 --> 00:04:13,297 Speaker 2: if they didn't like him, and they didn't show up. 77 00:04:13,617 --> 00:04:15,937 Speaker 2: But they didn't come out of swing states. They didn't 78 00:04:15,977 --> 00:04:18,977 Speaker 2: come out of Michigan or Pennsylvania or Georgia. And it 79 00:04:19,017 --> 00:04:22,417 Speaker 2: wasn't like any of the states that were responsible for 80 00:04:22,497 --> 00:04:25,617 Speaker 2: giving Biden to seventy saw this dipping pulling voting. They 81 00:04:25,657 --> 00:04:28,657 Speaker 2: all actually saw a surgeon voting. I think that it 82 00:04:28,697 --> 00:04:31,017 Speaker 2: was a combination maybe of all three things. 83 00:04:31,737 --> 00:04:36,337 Speaker 1: So the number six point two million, Kamala underperformed the 84 00:04:36,657 --> 00:04:39,937 Speaker 1: white working class vote in the Swing States. What can 85 00:04:40,017 --> 00:04:42,177 Speaker 1: we say about the role that that played? 86 00:04:42,217 --> 00:04:45,337 Speaker 2: Now, well, it was very big. But I think the 87 00:04:45,377 --> 00:04:48,497 Speaker 2: bigger question is is, and we're going to know more 88 00:04:48,537 --> 00:04:51,657 Speaker 2: as time goes on, was how if you look at 89 00:04:51,857 --> 00:04:54,177 Speaker 2: if you look at Hillary Hillary. 90 00:04:54,217 --> 00:04:58,097 Speaker 1: Can John banjes the better question? Better question? Why did 91 00:04:58,137 --> 00:05:00,337 Speaker 1: Trump win the Swing States by the numbers? 92 00:05:02,577 --> 00:05:05,617 Speaker 2: I mean, there's so if you look at AP vote cast, right, 93 00:05:05,657 --> 00:05:08,857 Speaker 2: which is the best source we have so far on 94 00:05:09,017 --> 00:05:11,977 Speaker 2: all the data in the Swing States. One, Republicans did 95 00:05:12,017 --> 00:05:14,937 Speaker 2: an amazing job of registering voters for the last four years. 96 00:05:14,937 --> 00:05:17,457 Speaker 2: In Pennsylvania they reduced number by like four hundred thousand. 97 00:05:17,497 --> 00:05:19,217 Speaker 2: In Arizona it was like a quarter of a million. 98 00:05:19,497 --> 00:05:24,537 Speaker 2: They worked for four years, actually enrolled registering new Republicans 99 00:05:24,537 --> 00:05:28,977 Speaker 2: in states that had registered Republicans. One, the female vote 100 00:05:29,137 --> 00:05:32,977 Speaker 2: was not this month mon like monstrosity towards Harris Like. 101 00:05:33,017 --> 00:05:35,497 Speaker 2: It wasn't this tidal wave of female support that. But 102 00:05:35,577 --> 00:05:39,017 Speaker 2: you know what, the polls never said that. The media 103 00:05:39,057 --> 00:05:42,617 Speaker 2: said that, But the polling literally never had her at 104 00:05:42,617 --> 00:05:46,177 Speaker 2: a bigger point with women and Hillary or Biden. She 105 00:05:46,297 --> 00:05:49,297 Speaker 2: was always in performing, but she underperformed even what the 106 00:05:49,337 --> 00:05:52,857 Speaker 2: polls were saying. She lost. She won women by six points. 107 00:05:53,617 --> 00:05:56,457 Speaker 2: The polling had her winning women by ten or eleven 108 00:05:57,737 --> 00:06:01,697 Speaker 2: versus Hillary is like fourteen. So she underperforming women was 109 00:06:01,737 --> 00:06:05,297 Speaker 2: a big, big, big part of it. The polls were 110 00:06:05,697 --> 00:06:07,617 Speaker 2: dead right when it came to minorities. I mean they 111 00:06:07,737 --> 00:06:10,737 Speaker 2: hit almost exactly where they said then already vote would 112 00:06:10,737 --> 00:06:14,057 Speaker 2: be was actually what showed up. They were off on 113 00:06:14,097 --> 00:06:16,617 Speaker 2: the youth vote. Young voters did show up for Trump 114 00:06:16,657 --> 00:06:18,777 Speaker 2: in a very big way. Young women showed up for 115 00:06:18,777 --> 00:06:21,697 Speaker 2: Trump in a bigger way than people think. Over forty 116 00:06:21,697 --> 00:06:23,737 Speaker 2: percent of young women voted for Trump, which they did 117 00:06:23,777 --> 00:06:27,777 Speaker 2: not expect. I did not expect. And the senior vote, 118 00:06:27,817 --> 00:06:31,257 Speaker 2: which I talked about a lot, Trump wonted, Trump wanted, 119 00:06:31,297 --> 00:06:34,097 Speaker 2: didn't win it by five or four points, but he 120 00:06:34,137 --> 00:06:36,137 Speaker 2: won it by three. Polster said he was going to 121 00:06:36,217 --> 00:06:39,377 Speaker 2: lose it by six, so he didn't lose too much 122 00:06:39,417 --> 00:06:42,497 Speaker 2: ground with senior citizens. We're going to get more data 123 00:06:42,497 --> 00:06:45,177 Speaker 2: on that later on, especially as retired communities are coming in. 124 00:06:45,417 --> 00:06:49,017 Speaker 2: But he didn't lose that much support with them. He won. 125 00:06:49,097 --> 00:06:52,577 Speaker 2: He gained support in the suburbs, he gained support among minorities, 126 00:06:52,737 --> 00:06:54,937 Speaker 2: and he gained support among women. And I think that 127 00:06:54,977 --> 00:06:57,857 Speaker 2: a combination. And he didn't he didn't lose anything with 128 00:06:57,937 --> 00:07:01,137 Speaker 2: the white working class and didn't lose anything with the 129 00:07:01,137 --> 00:07:04,897 Speaker 2: college educated white voters. So I think all of those, 130 00:07:04,937 --> 00:07:07,017 Speaker 2: I mean, those were the That's why he won. That's 131 00:07:07,017 --> 00:07:09,577 Speaker 2: why he got within six That and the drop of 132 00:07:09,657 --> 00:07:13,297 Speaker 2: Democrats support in Democratic states is why he came within 133 00:07:13,337 --> 00:07:15,097 Speaker 2: five points in New Jersey. Is why you won all 134 00:07:15,137 --> 00:07:17,697 Speaker 2: seven swing states. It's why he's within two points in 135 00:07:17,737 --> 00:07:20,697 Speaker 2: Minnesota and New Hampshire. I mean, and you know what 136 00:07:21,137 --> 00:07:24,017 Speaker 2: is incredible when you think about it, if Joe Biden 137 00:07:24,137 --> 00:07:26,817 Speaker 2: had been the nominee as things had progressed and how 138 00:07:26,857 --> 00:07:30,857 Speaker 2: bad as he got mentally, there's no question that New 139 00:07:30,937 --> 00:07:33,417 Speaker 2: York would have been, you know, within a few monks. 140 00:07:33,657 --> 00:07:35,977 Speaker 2: I think that New Jersey would have been Republican. I 141 00:07:36,017 --> 00:07:38,297 Speaker 2: think that Minnesota would have been republican. New Hampshire in 142 00:07:38,337 --> 00:07:41,297 Speaker 2: republican Virginia and New Mexico. I think that you would 143 00:07:41,297 --> 00:07:46,737 Speaker 2: have seen a cataclysmic election day result that is even 144 00:07:46,777 --> 00:07:48,097 Speaker 2: worse than how combol it did. 145 00:07:48,257 --> 00:07:49,857 Speaker 1: But I want to ask you when we come back 146 00:07:49,897 --> 00:07:53,377 Speaker 1: here from our sponsor in a second, what the who 147 00:07:53,457 --> 00:07:55,457 Speaker 1: is the leader of the Democrat resistance or what do 148 00:07:55,497 --> 00:07:57,297 Speaker 1: you think that's going to look like going into the 149 00:07:57,297 --> 00:08:00,297 Speaker 1: beginning of Trump's term? You know, who are the people 150 00:08:00,377 --> 00:08:02,217 Speaker 1: that are waiting to sort of step in as the 151 00:08:02,937 --> 00:08:05,937 Speaker 1: big guns, if you will, of the Democrat Party. But 152 00:08:06,017 --> 00:08:08,697 Speaker 1: first up our sponsor's wide mote research here.

Take out the crystal ball? Who's because 174 00:09:11,897 --> 00:09:14,097 Speaker 1: here's me. Let me just preface this a little bit. 175 00:09:15,177 --> 00:09:17,297 Speaker 1: I think Obama did a lot of damage. And I 176 00:09:17,337 --> 00:09:20,817 Speaker 1: know Joe Rogan spoke about this, but I think Obama 177 00:09:20,817 --> 00:09:23,737 Speaker 1: Obama did a lot of damage to his brand among 178 00:09:24,657 --> 00:09:27,137 Speaker 1: sort of center and central left people with the whole 179 00:09:27,257 --> 00:09:29,337 Speaker 1: very fine people lie that he tried against Trump. At 180 00:09:29,337 --> 00:09:32,377 Speaker 1: the end, it's just a lie. And Obama's a smart guy. 181 00:09:32,457 --> 00:09:34,337 Speaker 1: He knows it's a lie. He didn't care. He just 182 00:09:34,377 --> 00:09:36,737 Speaker 1: tried to smear Trump. So he's not above it at all. 183 00:09:36,937 --> 00:09:39,217 Speaker 1: I never thought he was. But Obama's not above the 184 00:09:39,257 --> 00:09:43,057 Speaker 1: most you know, obvious and gross lies, and he can't 185 00:09:43,137 --> 00:09:47,257 Speaker 1: run again, I think finally, unless some boomers start yelling 186 00:09:47,257 --> 00:09:49,257 Speaker 1: at me for this, I don't think Michelle Obama's running. 187 00:09:49,297 --> 00:09:50,097 Speaker 1: That's not happening. 188 00:09:50,977 --> 00:09:53,577 Speaker 2: I don't think Michelle Obama will ever do another political 189 00:09:53,577 --> 00:09:57,657 Speaker 2: event again. Yeah, I'll ever speak another DNC. I don't 190 00:09:57,657 --> 00:10:00,977 Speaker 2: think she will ever do anything political ever again. 191 00:10:01,177 --> 00:10:03,377 Speaker 1: Yeah. The people who've been saying that you know that 192 00:10:03,377 --> 00:10:05,417 Speaker 1: she's not interested, we were. 193 00:10:05,257 --> 00:10:09,417 Speaker 3: Toed, we were we were tard and feather for telling 194 00:10:09,457 --> 00:10:11,977 Speaker 3: people that you're that she would not be the nominee 195 00:10:12,257 --> 00:10:15,777 Speaker 3: and some other political commentators on the right word where 196 00:10:15,937 --> 00:10:17,257 Speaker 3: they were burning that flame for. 197 00:10:17,177 --> 00:10:17,817 Speaker 2: A long time. 198 00:10:18,097 --> 00:10:24,257 Speaker 1: Oh that is true. So here's what I want to know. 199 00:10:24,937 --> 00:10:28,017 Speaker 1: Who steps in? Who is? You know, you got these 200 00:10:28,017 --> 00:10:32,137 Speaker 1: people like Shift and that other guy, a Goldman who 201 00:10:32,137 --> 00:10:35,657 Speaker 1: are very big and kind of impeachment legal, Russia Trump stuff, 202 00:10:35,657 --> 00:10:38,217 Speaker 1: you know all this. They don't have it right. They 203 00:10:38,217 --> 00:10:40,257 Speaker 1: don't have any X factor, they don't have any national 204 00:10:40,297 --> 00:10:50,297 Speaker 1: level charisma. Is the list really Whitmer, Newsome, the stout 205 00:10:50,377 --> 00:10:53,657 Speaker 1: fellow from Illinois and you know who? 206 00:10:54,457 --> 00:11:01,817 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Shapiro, Yeah, I think that one. The resistance 207 00:11:02,017 --> 00:11:04,297 Speaker 2: as it is looks a lot different than it did 208 00:11:04,337 --> 00:11:09,057 Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen. You're not seeing Democrats act the same way. 209 00:11:10,777 --> 00:11:15,137 Speaker 2: You're not seeing Democrats lose their minds so publicly as 210 00:11:15,177 --> 00:11:18,017 Speaker 2: they did there. I guess the nervous breakdowns are more 211 00:11:18,177 --> 00:11:21,137 Speaker 2: inside the house than outside in public. I don't know 212 00:11:21,177 --> 00:11:23,617 Speaker 2: if you're going to have another women's march where you know, 213 00:11:23,657 --> 00:11:26,257 Speaker 2: millions of women take to the streets. I think Trump 214 00:11:26,297 --> 00:11:28,657 Speaker 2: winning the popular vote really took the wind out of 215 00:11:28,697 --> 00:11:31,657 Speaker 2: their sales in a big, big way. They can say 216 00:11:31,657 --> 00:11:35,777 Speaker 2: it was an illegitimately elected president by their standards. Also, 217 00:11:35,857 --> 00:11:39,137 Speaker 2: there's thing called a Popular Vote Compact where these states 218 00:11:39,177 --> 00:11:40,897 Speaker 2: got together and said, who everyone's a popul vote, We're 219 00:11:40,897 --> 00:11:43,457 Speaker 2: going to give them all their electoral college votes. I 220 00:11:43,497 --> 00:11:45,897 Speaker 2: would love to see if they actually They include California 221 00:11:45,977 --> 00:11:47,537 Speaker 2: and New York. So let's see if they actually give 222 00:11:47,537 --> 00:11:50,697 Speaker 2: their electoral college votes to Donald Trump. But that's neither 223 00:11:50,697 --> 00:11:53,697 Speaker 2: here nor there. I think that when it comes to 224 00:11:54,257 --> 00:11:59,417 Speaker 2: the resistance or the next leadership, look look at Hillary's convention, 225 00:11:59,657 --> 00:12:03,497 Speaker 2: look at Biden's convention, and look at Harris's convention. When 226 00:12:03,537 --> 00:12:06,697 Speaker 2: you look at the way they approach the Democratic Party, 227 00:12:06,777 --> 00:12:10,337 Speaker 2: they really their goal has always been to win over 228 00:12:10,857 --> 00:12:16,057 Speaker 2: center right, independence, military people, moderates, They've they've made an 229 00:12:16,217 --> 00:12:20,577 Speaker 2: open gesture towards them, even if the party has been unhinged. 230 00:12:21,057 --> 00:12:22,937 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's going to happen anymore. I 231 00:12:22,977 --> 00:12:25,017 Speaker 2: don't think and this is what I truly think. I 232 00:12:25,057 --> 00:12:29,217 Speaker 2: don't think Democrats will nominate another woman to be president 233 00:12:29,457 --> 00:12:32,897 Speaker 2: for a very very long time. I just don't see 234 00:12:32,897 --> 00:12:35,137 Speaker 2: how that's going to happen at this point, given the 235 00:12:35,297 --> 00:12:39,137 Speaker 2: two the only two to lose, you know, I lose 236 00:12:39,177 --> 00:12:41,497 Speaker 2: to Trump or women. I just don't see that happening. 237 00:12:41,817 --> 00:12:43,977 Speaker 2: I don't think that Whitmer has it. I think Shapiro 238 00:12:43,977 --> 00:12:45,617 Speaker 2: is somebody to look out for. I think Wes Moore 239 00:12:45,697 --> 00:12:47,817 Speaker 2: or somebody to watch out for. I think Wes Moore 240 00:12:47,857 --> 00:12:50,497 Speaker 2: has a lot of what they're looking for. He's the 241 00:12:50,537 --> 00:12:55,217 Speaker 2: governor of Maryland right now. But it will be a 242 00:12:55,217 --> 00:12:59,937 Speaker 2: fight over the more sensibly approach Democrats, Democrats who actually 243 00:12:59,977 --> 00:13:02,017 Speaker 2: like look like they're normal, and then that like that 244 00:13:02,177 --> 00:13:06,057 Speaker 2: congressman from Texas, I forget her name now. She just 245 00:13:06,057 --> 00:13:08,937 Speaker 2: comes off as completely unhinged and nutty and screaming all 246 00:13:08,977 --> 00:13:12,297 Speaker 2: the time. She feeds the base like what Corey Bush 247 00:13:12,337 --> 00:13:16,057 Speaker 2: fed the base and but what the party wants is 248 00:13:16,097 --> 00:13:17,937 Speaker 2: a much different approach to it. But I would guess 249 00:13:17,937 --> 00:13:20,137 Speaker 2: a Wes Moore or a Jos Shapiro is who they're 250 00:13:20,137 --> 00:13:22,057 Speaker 2: going to turn their eyes to. There's not a lot 251 00:13:22,057 --> 00:13:24,937 Speaker 2: of senate talent and real least slock and I'm not 252 00:13:24,977 --> 00:13:27,337 Speaker 2: exactly sure there's not a ton of senate talent where 253 00:13:27,337 --> 00:13:28,617 Speaker 2: they're going to sit there and pull front. 254 00:13:29,217 --> 00:13:31,297 Speaker 1: I feel like this is we We've gone in a 255 00:13:31,337 --> 00:13:36,217 Speaker 1: couple of election cycles from which Democrat dynasty is going 256 00:13:36,297 --> 00:13:40,857 Speaker 1: to elbow out the other one to what Democrat dynasty 257 00:13:41,137 --> 00:13:43,417 Speaker 1: Like there really isn't one in the mix right now. 258 00:13:43,457 --> 00:13:47,337 Speaker 1: I mean RFK Junior is part of Trump world right right. 259 00:13:47,377 --> 00:13:49,777 Speaker 2: And you know the big the funny thing is, and 260 00:13:49,817 --> 00:13:53,017 Speaker 2: the interesting thing is is that there is like once 261 00:13:53,577 --> 00:13:56,177 Speaker 2: and you know, our buddy and cultises all the time, 262 00:13:56,297 --> 00:13:58,577 Speaker 2: once all the white men were phased out of the party, 263 00:13:58,617 --> 00:14:02,977 Speaker 2: that Joe Biden generation, the Nancy Pelosi generation, Senny Hoyers generation. 264 00:14:03,697 --> 00:14:08,617 Speaker 2: It is the craziest people left. There is not you know, 265 00:14:08,977 --> 00:14:12,177 Speaker 2: a normal one. There is not a power broker like 266 00:14:12,297 --> 00:14:16,377 Speaker 2: her their in their wings right now. I mean the 267 00:14:16,417 --> 00:14:19,737 Speaker 2: average voter would still say Nancy Pelosi leads the House Democrats, 268 00:14:19,777 --> 00:14:22,417 Speaker 2: and it's not Akeem Jefferies from New York. I mean, 269 00:14:22,457 --> 00:14:25,217 Speaker 2: no one really believes that Hakim is calling more shots 270 00:14:25,217 --> 00:14:28,537 Speaker 2: than Nancy is, and I think that that's evidence. So 271 00:14:28,577 --> 00:14:30,977 Speaker 2: I think that they don't have I think the reason, 272 00:14:31,017 --> 00:14:34,137 Speaker 2: like Nancy Pelosi is still around at eighty two, eighty 273 00:14:34,297 --> 00:14:37,617 Speaker 2: four years old and still calling all the shots is 274 00:14:37,657 --> 00:14:41,177 Speaker 2: there isn't a natural successor in the I don't think 275 00:14:41,217 --> 00:14:43,537 Speaker 2: that there is, and I don't Maybe there will be, 276 00:14:43,577 --> 00:14:44,817 Speaker 2: but I don't see it. And you know what, they 277 00:14:44,817 --> 00:14:47,217 Speaker 2: didn't like Obama that much either as being a quote 278 00:14:47,297 --> 00:14:50,377 Speaker 2: unquote successor because they had a lot of people from 279 00:14:51,137 --> 00:14:54,737 Speaker 2: the Chicago machine and machine Democrats running his White House 280 00:14:54,737 --> 00:14:58,577 Speaker 2: and his administration. They weren't like, they didn't think that 281 00:14:58,617 --> 00:15:00,177 Speaker 2: he was going to be the power broker. Could you 282 00:15:00,297 --> 00:15:02,817 Speaker 2: I read an article about this. Can you name one 283 00:15:02,897 --> 00:15:06,017 Speaker 2: thing politically Obama has done since leaving the White House? 284 00:15:06,697 --> 00:15:09,417 Speaker 1: No, not one he does. 285 00:15:09,537 --> 00:15:13,217 Speaker 2: He's all been about Netflix and documentaries and living. I mean, good, 286 00:15:13,217 --> 00:15:15,617 Speaker 2: good for him. He's making money. You have a nice life. 287 00:15:16,497 --> 00:15:20,657 Speaker 2: But his legacy is pretty horrendous. When you really look 288 00:15:20,697 --> 00:15:24,817 Speaker 2: back at the political legacy of Barack Obama after his 289 00:15:24,937 --> 00:15:27,337 Speaker 2: first two years when he got Obamacare and everything through. 290 00:15:29,177 --> 00:15:32,257 Speaker 2: You have the downfall the Democratic Party where they lost 291 00:15:32,257 --> 00:15:34,737 Speaker 2: a thousand legislative seats the House and the Senate, the 292 00:15:34,777 --> 00:15:38,857 Speaker 2: election of Donald Trump, I guess, the election of Joe Biden, 293 00:15:38,897 --> 00:15:42,617 Speaker 2: where he had some policy goals whatever, but it was 294 00:15:43,057 --> 00:15:46,897 Speaker 2: horribly unpopular. And then Kamala Harris, the woman that he 295 00:15:46,977 --> 00:15:50,297 Speaker 2: pushed Biden to pick a his VP, loses against Donald 296 00:15:50,337 --> 00:15:54,177 Speaker 2: Trump again, and Republicans have a trifector in Congress, and 297 00:15:54,257 --> 00:15:59,457 Speaker 2: Democrats have never been so leadershipless really going back to 298 00:15:59,577 --> 00:16:02,257 Speaker 2: like when Clinton was first running in the nineties. 299 00:16:02,537 --> 00:16:04,337 Speaker 1: Well, that's what I mean. It feels like you have 300 00:16:04,417 --> 00:16:08,017 Speaker 1: the most wide open Democrat field in my adult lifetime. 301 00:16:08,097 --> 00:16:09,697 Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like this. So that's why I 302 00:16:09,737 --> 00:16:13,657 Speaker 1: asked you question. It feels like Trump's, you know, Trump's agenda. 303 00:16:13,697 --> 00:16:15,537 Speaker 1: I mean, They've never never been in a better position 304 00:16:15,577 --> 00:16:19,297 Speaker 1: to make big gains and big changes. But right well 305 00:16:19,497 --> 00:16:19,937 Speaker 1: they can. 306 00:16:19,817 --> 00:16:21,697 Speaker 2: If they can do it, if they can do it, 307 00:16:21,737 --> 00:16:23,217 Speaker 2: and they can do it. But also I mean, like 308 00:16:23,737 --> 00:16:27,297 Speaker 2: there is we're in a moment right now where we're 309 00:16:27,377 --> 00:16:30,817 Speaker 2: at the last act of the Trump Show, Like this 310 00:16:30,897 --> 00:16:34,217 Speaker 2: is it like this is his last term. Hopefully he 311 00:16:34,377 --> 00:16:40,177 Speaker 2: I mean, he configured a electoral map that may ultimately 312 00:16:40,257 --> 00:16:42,617 Speaker 2: change politics in the same way that Richard Nixon did 313 00:16:42,617 --> 00:16:45,657 Speaker 2: in nineteen sixty eight when he brought Southern Democrats and 314 00:16:45,737 --> 00:16:49,497 Speaker 2: Neo Cohns and ethnic whites into the party. Trump Trump 315 00:16:49,537 --> 00:16:51,777 Speaker 2: did that in twenty twenty four, and if they're smart, 316 00:16:51,777 --> 00:16:53,377 Speaker 2: they can do it again and they can keep it 317 00:16:53,417 --> 00:16:57,857 Speaker 2: and grow the party in that In that fashion, Trump's 318 00:16:57,977 --> 00:17:00,377 Speaker 2: legacy to a large degree, is going to be made 319 00:17:00,417 --> 00:17:02,137 Speaker 2: in the next three and a half years. And then 320 00:17:02,217 --> 00:17:05,817 Speaker 2: once that's over, it's is an absence of what we 321 00:17:05,897 --> 00:17:08,177 Speaker 2: haven't had in twelve years. We will not have. We 322 00:17:08,217 --> 00:17:09,937 Speaker 2: will never have a man like Donald Trump run for 323 00:17:10,217 --> 00:17:12,297 Speaker 2: and again in our lifetimes, but we because he is 324 00:17:12,337 --> 00:17:17,377 Speaker 2: such a special individual figure. But the whole Trump Ethos 325 00:17:17,457 --> 00:17:21,137 Speaker 2: show is going to come to an end, and it 326 00:17:21,217 --> 00:17:24,497 Speaker 2: is a big question as to what follows, because I 327 00:17:24,497 --> 00:17:29,137 Speaker 2: would say seventy percent of Republicans in Congress are more 328 00:17:29,257 --> 00:17:33,137 Speaker 2: like George Bush Republicans than Donald Trump Republicans. We have 329 00:17:33,177 --> 00:17:36,697 Speaker 2: a great vice president, but we have a lot of 330 00:17:36,737 --> 00:17:40,497 Speaker 2: people who very much are like build the Wall. But 331 00:17:40,577 --> 00:17:43,057 Speaker 2: here's my George Bush bumper stick or over under my 332 00:17:43,177 --> 00:17:43,657 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. 333 00:17:43,937 --> 00:17:47,097 Speaker 1: Yeah, the party, you know, the sort of Cheney Bush 334 00:17:47,217 --> 00:17:51,377 Speaker 1: party might might have a resurgence anyway. Well, let's not 335 00:17:51,417 --> 00:17:53,977 Speaker 1: make everybody sad with that quite yet. Let's talk about 336 00:17:54,057 --> 00:17:56,377 Speaker 1: Eric Adams.

That's t the number two T 355 00:18:46,017 --> 00:18:49,417 Speaker 1: dot org. Eric Adams is being indicted by the or 356 00:18:49,417 --> 00:18:52,897 Speaker 1: has been indicted by the Feds, right, so they're coming 357 00:18:52,937 --> 00:18:55,497 Speaker 1: after him for some To me, it looks like some nonsense. 358 00:18:56,137 --> 00:18:58,977 Speaker 1: Now we're saying criminal illegals, which I know this is 359 00:18:59,057 --> 00:19:01,017 Speaker 1: kind of this is like, what does that even mean? 360 00:19:01,577 --> 00:19:06,177 Speaker 1: Illegal alien status in the country, plus committing additional crimes. 361 00:19:06,577 --> 00:19:08,457 Speaker 1: He says he's going to kick him out and help 362 00:19:08,977 --> 00:19:10,737 Speaker 1: deport them, like pass them all along to Ice. 363 00:19:12,057 --> 00:19:13,217 Speaker 2: And so is Kathy Hopal. 364 00:19:13,817 --> 00:19:15,657 Speaker 1: Yeah, so does the governor New York all of a 365 00:19:15,657 --> 00:19:16,697 Speaker 1: sudden what's going on here? 366 00:19:16,777 --> 00:19:20,097 Speaker 2: Yeah? I think that well, and I don't I think 367 00:19:20,097 --> 00:19:22,017 Speaker 2: that he I think that he would love a pardon 368 00:19:22,097 --> 00:19:26,177 Speaker 2: right now. I don't think there's a chance he wins 369 00:19:26,257 --> 00:19:29,337 Speaker 2: reelection as of right now, especially because New York has 370 00:19:29,377 --> 00:19:33,177 Speaker 2: that stupid system where you vote for your second place 371 00:19:33,217 --> 00:19:36,577 Speaker 2: in the third place, but a voter choice rank choice. 372 00:19:36,777 --> 00:19:38,897 Speaker 2: If he was very strong, Andrew Cuomo would not be 373 00:19:39,177 --> 00:19:42,977 Speaker 2: prepping to run, which he is, and he's going to 374 00:19:43,057 --> 00:19:45,377 Speaker 2: be outflying from the progressive. So I think that right 375 00:19:45,417 --> 00:19:47,577 Speaker 2: now he's looking at his best bet for how he 376 00:19:47,577 --> 00:19:50,137 Speaker 2: gets through this, and I think that it's I think 377 00:19:50,177 --> 00:19:53,697 Speaker 2: it's I mean, it's good politics, good policy ahead of 378 00:19:53,697 --> 00:19:56,497 Speaker 2: a reelection. So maybe he's trying to win over some 379 00:19:56,537 --> 00:20:01,577 Speaker 2: support from, you know, communities affected by crime. And the 380 00:20:01,617 --> 00:20:03,857 Speaker 2: fact that Katy Holpe was agreeing with him. I think 381 00:20:03,897 --> 00:20:05,497 Speaker 2: there's a lot of I think there's a lot of 382 00:20:05,537 --> 00:20:07,737 Speaker 2: people looking at the tea leaves in New York City, 383 00:20:08,057 --> 00:20:10,857 Speaker 2: in New York State and saying, how of the state 384 00:20:10,897 --> 00:20:16,657 Speaker 2: that was as left as California become more to the 385 00:20:16,737 --> 00:20:19,377 Speaker 2: right than Texas is to the left, Like Texas is 386 00:20:19,377 --> 00:20:21,417 Speaker 2: more is less of a swing state than New York 387 00:20:21,497 --> 00:20:25,537 Speaker 2: is in the last election, and that elections have become 388 00:20:25,617 --> 00:20:28,537 Speaker 2: tighter and tighter and tighter every election for the last 389 00:20:28,817 --> 00:20:31,737 Speaker 2: three successive elections, right for mayor, New York City for 390 00:20:31,817 --> 00:20:35,537 Speaker 2: governor for two elections, those things have been working in 391 00:20:35,617 --> 00:20:38,497 Speaker 2: Republicans favor, and I think that they're I think they're nervous. 392 00:20:38,497 --> 00:20:40,697 Speaker 2: I think they're genuinely nervous. There's a seed change in 393 00:20:40,737 --> 00:20:43,737 Speaker 2: New York happening, and Eric Adams needs a place to land. 394 00:20:43,737 --> 00:20:46,657 Speaker 2: I think that's he's thinking. I think I have to 395 00:20:47,497 --> 00:20:49,257 Speaker 2: I have to be different. I can't be you know, 396 00:20:49,417 --> 00:20:51,337 Speaker 2: I have to move to the middle in order to 397 00:20:51,457 --> 00:20:55,337 Speaker 2: secure an election victory, because you know, there's a couple 398 00:20:55,377 --> 00:20:57,417 Speaker 2: of bole allegedly looking at running are going to be 399 00:20:57,457 --> 00:21:00,057 Speaker 2: serious that we'll have serious money and lots of money 400 00:21:00,377 --> 00:21:03,377 Speaker 2: and a lot a real campaign against her if they run. 401 00:21:03,457 --> 00:21:05,097 Speaker 2: I don't think they're going to take New York governor 402 00:21:05,177 --> 00:21:07,577 Speaker 2: races like they did in the mid ods, where they 403 00:21:07,577 --> 00:21:09,177 Speaker 2: would just you know, not back anybody. 404 00:21:10,177 --> 00:21:12,697 Speaker 1: So yes, you think that New York politics in New 405 00:21:12,737 --> 00:21:15,137 Speaker 1: York has gotten a bit of a shakeup because to me, 406 00:21:15,897 --> 00:21:19,177 Speaker 1: to me, it's interesting that you know, the biggest city 407 00:21:19,177 --> 00:21:21,897 Speaker 1: in America has and the state of New York, as 408 00:21:21,897 --> 00:21:24,617 Speaker 1: you point out, the governor changing their tune on immigration 409 00:21:24,737 --> 00:21:28,137 Speaker 1: right before. The biggest challenge that I see, imminent challenge 410 00:21:28,137 --> 00:21:30,737 Speaker 1: that I see Trump facing is if they're really going 411 00:21:30,737 --> 00:21:33,177 Speaker 1: to ramp up deportations in a way that people know, 412 00:21:33,497 --> 00:21:35,417 Speaker 1: you know that they're not just talking about but you're 413 00:21:35,457 --> 00:21:39,577 Speaker 1: aware of it. That's going to get that's going to 414 00:21:39,577 --> 00:21:42,817 Speaker 1: get very interesting and very heated, right. 415 00:21:42,737 --> 00:21:45,057 Speaker 2: And listen, I mean, if they can go to rikers 416 00:21:45,177 --> 00:21:47,657 Speaker 2: and start bringing them out, and there's some amount Rikers 417 00:21:47,657 --> 00:21:50,497 Speaker 2: waiting for them one hundred percent. But look, here's the thing. 418 00:21:51,377 --> 00:21:55,057 Speaker 2: It's uf Al County before Trump in twenty sixteen had 419 00:21:55,057 --> 00:21:58,137 Speaker 2: not voted a Republican since I think nineteen eighty eight. 420 00:21:58,377 --> 00:22:02,377 Speaker 2: It went for Republicans by eleven points. Saddn Island, which 421 00:22:02,417 --> 00:22:05,337 Speaker 2: you would think is a Republican place, went for Obama 422 00:22:05,417 --> 00:22:08,337 Speaker 2: over Romney. In twenty twelve, it went by thirty points 423 00:22:08,377 --> 00:22:13,177 Speaker 2: for Trump. Queens count is more Republican than Westchester County, 424 00:22:13,617 --> 00:22:17,657 Speaker 2: which I that is that is like you know, waking 425 00:22:17,737 --> 00:22:21,417 Speaker 2: up one day and speaking Japanese, if like that is unbelievable, 426 00:22:21,457 --> 00:22:26,057 Speaker 2: that that is all happening. The numbers are just wild. 427 00:22:26,137 --> 00:22:28,417 Speaker 2: Places in like New York City that I would have 428 00:22:28,537 --> 00:22:31,657 Speaker 2: never ever assumed a Republican would ever get a vote. 429 00:22:31,737 --> 00:22:35,457 Speaker 2: Jesus Christ could have ran as Republican and lost. Donald 430 00:22:35,497 --> 00:22:37,897 Speaker 2: Trump won like Jackson Heights, Queen's That's an area that 431 00:22:37,937 --> 00:22:40,177 Speaker 2: there was no There was never a question that was 432 00:22:40,217 --> 00:22:43,857 Speaker 2: going to happen. The Bronx and Brooklyn being even as 433 00:22:43,857 --> 00:22:48,737 Speaker 2: far as Republican vote is wild and it's all organic, 434 00:22:49,177 --> 00:22:52,657 Speaker 2: there is no functioning Republican party in New York State. 435 00:22:52,737 --> 00:22:55,817 Speaker 2: Outside the Congression elections, no one puts money in this state. 436 00:22:56,057 --> 00:22:59,617 Speaker 2: The media market's so expensive. There's no Republican as being 437 00:22:59,697 --> 00:23:03,897 Speaker 2: streamed into New York City. It's wildly costly. This is 438 00:23:04,297 --> 00:23:09,057 Speaker 2: one hundred percent organic, and that is what's making them nervous. 439 00:23:09,097 --> 00:23:12,577 Speaker 2: And they want to know why why did Adams have 440 00:23:12,657 --> 00:23:16,577 Speaker 2: a tighter election for mayor last time against Curtis Lee? Well, 441 00:23:16,617 --> 00:23:18,657 Speaker 2: who I like Curtis and nothing no problem with them, 442 00:23:18,697 --> 00:23:20,777 Speaker 2: but it was a bit of a joe campaign. And 443 00:23:21,137 --> 00:23:24,097 Speaker 2: why is it gonna Why is why? You know any 444 00:23:24,257 --> 00:23:27,017 Speaker 2: Democrat is going to face the same uphill battle where 445 00:23:27,017 --> 00:23:27,497 Speaker 2: things are. 446 00:23:27,737 --> 00:23:30,417 Speaker 1: Do you think a Republican remember Romney was governor of 447 00:23:30,457 --> 00:23:34,217 Speaker 1: Massachusetts back in the day. Do you think that a 448 00:23:34,217 --> 00:23:39,177 Speaker 1: a centrist Republican UH would be in a position to 449 00:23:39,737 --> 00:23:42,297 Speaker 1: run against and beat hocel Or? You know, do you 450 00:23:42,337 --> 00:23:44,017 Speaker 1: think that's you think that could happening one. 451 00:23:43,937 --> 00:23:46,697 Speaker 2: Hundred percent true. I think, especially as they moved to 452 00:23:46,697 --> 00:23:48,697 Speaker 2: the center, they're saying in New York. In New York, 453 00:23:48,697 --> 00:23:51,457 Speaker 2: there's something called a Wilson bakula, which means that you 454 00:23:51,577 --> 00:23:54,857 Speaker 2: can run as more than one party, So you can 455 00:23:54,937 --> 00:23:57,457 Speaker 2: run as a Republican an independent and a conservative, and 456 00:23:57,577 --> 00:24:00,177 Speaker 2: all those votes are tabulated together and that's what you get. 457 00:24:01,057 --> 00:24:03,377 Speaker 2: And that's often what happens. There's something called the Working 458 00:24:03,457 --> 00:24:07,417 Speaker 2: Families Party, which is a very far left liberal party 459 00:24:07,457 --> 00:24:10,697 Speaker 2: in New York State. They never like endorsed or the 460 00:24:10,697 --> 00:24:12,817 Speaker 2: Green Party never indored dors Andrew Plomo. I don't think 461 00:24:12,817 --> 00:24:16,977 Speaker 2: the Working Failey Party ever endorsed Andrew Plomo either. If so, 462 00:24:17,177 --> 00:24:21,737 Speaker 2: like Jimani Williams ran for mayor or some other very 463 00:24:21,857 --> 00:24:25,537 Speaker 2: far left liberal New Yorker ran for governor. As Kathy 464 00:24:25,577 --> 00:24:27,777 Speaker 2: Hlchal's moving to the right, I could see the Working 465 00:24:27,777 --> 00:24:30,497 Speaker 2: Family Party endorsing against her and running a third party 466 00:24:30,777 --> 00:24:33,337 Speaker 2: person against her. And they actually have registered voters. They 467 00:24:33,337 --> 00:24:36,777 Speaker 2: have over one hundred thousand plus registered voters. That would 468 00:24:36,817 --> 00:24:40,817 Speaker 2: mean something, that would really really mean something in a 469 00:24:40,937 --> 00:24:43,217 Speaker 2: very tight election. If like a Mike Lawler, who who 470 00:24:43,257 --> 00:24:46,097 Speaker 2: was clearly a very serious candidate who outran Trump by 471 00:24:46,097 --> 00:24:49,097 Speaker 2: seven points in his district, ran and won in a 472 00:24:49,577 --> 00:24:52,497 Speaker 2: seat that Harris won, if he ran, I think it's 473 00:24:52,497 --> 00:24:55,737 Speaker 2: a very serious thing, especially as Long Island's becoming red 474 00:24:55,777 --> 00:24:59,217 Speaker 2: red red. You know, Queens is close to forty percents 475 00:24:59,257 --> 00:25:01,817 Speaker 2: Daden Island is the most second most red county in 476 00:25:02,017 --> 00:25:05,897 Speaker 2: all the mid Atlantic outside of Ocean County. New Jersey 477 00:25:06,257 --> 00:25:08,457 Speaker 2: and upstate is bloining a little bit, but it's a 478 00:25:08,497 --> 00:25:12,417 Speaker 2: lot of mixed manhatmites moving up there, so you never know. 479 00:25:12,497 --> 00:25:14,697 Speaker 2: I mean, it's a far different thing of New York 480 00:25:14,737 --> 00:25:18,217 Speaker 2: City is changing in a way that makes it much 481 00:25:18,217 --> 00:25:19,817 Speaker 2: more competitive than the state is changing to. 482 00:25:19,977 --> 00:25:22,177 Speaker 1: So, I mean it sounds like just to close us 483 00:25:22,217 --> 00:25:26,137 Speaker 1: up here, Ryan, the sense of political devastation that some 484 00:25:26,177 --> 00:25:29,777 Speaker 1: of us believe the Democrats must be feeling. They are 485 00:25:29,857 --> 00:25:32,097 Speaker 1: kind of feeling it right now. I mean that things are. 486 00:25:33,177 --> 00:25:36,977 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're going through a social thing. Listen, seven years 487 00:25:37,177 --> 00:25:40,937 Speaker 2: of saying the most insane things did not work for them. 488 00:25:41,177 --> 00:25:43,217 Speaker 2: Boys can be girls in preschool, they all can play 489 00:25:43,217 --> 00:25:45,617 Speaker 2: sports together, and then we'll do Black Lives Matter, and 490 00:25:45,657 --> 00:25:48,337 Speaker 2: then we'll do DEI and no one gets grades and 491 00:25:48,537 --> 00:25:51,337 Speaker 2: no one gets policed, and everything's gonna be the most wonderful, happy, 492 00:25:51,377 --> 00:25:54,537 Speaker 2: magical place. It didn't really work for them. So now 493 00:25:54,617 --> 00:25:56,737 Speaker 2: you're sitting here and seeing a bunch of Democrats saying, hey, 494 00:25:57,337 --> 00:26:01,377 Speaker 2: let's do something different, Let's find that sweet spot. Is it? 495 00:26:01,417 --> 00:26:03,577 Speaker 2: Like John Fetterman, who is moderated on a lot of things. 496 00:26:03,697 --> 00:26:05,977 Speaker 2: Is it just being pro Israel like Richie Torres is doing. 497 00:26:06,257 --> 00:26:09,537 Speaker 2: Is it doing some kind of immigration enforcement? Is it 498 00:26:09,577 --> 00:26:12,737 Speaker 2: the girls and boys sports like Seth Mouland from Massachusetts 499 00:26:12,777 --> 00:26:16,537 Speaker 2: is doing. They're all looking for how do I get 500 00:26:16,577 --> 00:26:21,417 Speaker 2: back to the middle by cutting off these very insane 501 00:26:21,577 --> 00:26:25,337 Speaker 2: fringe parts of the Democratic Party? Is is that going 502 00:26:25,377 --> 00:26:27,177 Speaker 2: to cost you more than when?
