19
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be down in Atlanta this weekend, in fact,

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: hopping in a car in about an hour and a

21
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: half and headed down there for the Georgia Alabama game.

22
00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: We are going to be joined by herschel Walker, who

23
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 1: may be the man that gives Republicans back control of

24
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: the Senate at the top of the next hour. But

25
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:14,320
Speaker 1: also we're gonna be doing a live show from one

26
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 1: to three Eastern. If you're going to be down in

27
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:19,320
Speaker 1: Atlanta for the SEC championship game, or if you just

28
00:01:19,360 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 1: live in the Atlanta area, we'll be at Stats doing

29
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: a pregame show for the college football Conference championship weekend.

30
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 1: It's fun, come by, swing hangout. But I was listening

31
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: to some of the monologues from all of the different

32
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: late night comedians and by the way, Greg Gutfeld Buck

33
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 1: was on his show last night. Buck, by the way

34
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 1: out sick today, but he was an out last night

35
00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:48,120
Speaker 1: doing the show with Gutfeld, and Gutfeld is overwhelmingly dominating

36
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Trevor Noah, everybody out

37
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 1: there who has a late night talk show. And one

38
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: reason why I think Greg Gutfeld this dominating is because

39
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: he's still trying to make you laugh in the same

40
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: sort of old school set up as existed with David

41
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: Letterman and as existed with Johnny Carson, and as I

42
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: listened to this monologue from Stephen Colbert on abortion. First

43
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:22,000
Speaker 1: of all, Stephen Colbert is not very smart in terms

44
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: of analyzing politics. He's also not that funny anymore. It's

45
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 1: a very strident, morally focused late night talk show. And

46
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 1: I'm forty two and I grew up loving David Letterman.

47
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,400
Speaker 1: I grew up watching Johnny Carson, Jay Leno, all those

48
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: people late at night. You remember when you were a

49
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 1: kid and you got to stay up a little bit

50
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: late past your bedtime and you got to watch the

51
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:52,760
Speaker 1: late night comedians. Well, so great about them was they

52
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: were equal opportunity bomb throwers. They'd really legitimately tried. Whether

53
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: they did it or not perfectly, of course not, but

54
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,840
Speaker 1: they tried to equally take shots at the excesses and

55
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: stupidities of Republicans and at the excesses and stupidities of Democrats.

56
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: Sort Of imagine Bill Clinton. He was a consistent punchline

57
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 1: for these guys, even though he's a Democratic politician. George W.

58
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 1: Bush similarly a consistent punchline. He was a Republican. But

59
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: they treated the two guys, at least in my experience,

60
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: very similar. Ronald Reagan not a lot different. Even Barack

61
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 1: Obama they would make fun of a little bit. But

62
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: with Trump they went off the deep end. And now

63
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 1: without Trump, you know, Stephen Colbert made his entire show

64
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 1: and anti Trump screed, and it worked. There were sheep

65
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 1: out there that desperately wanted their late night comedians to

66
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 1: only make fun of Donald Trump, and then everybody followed.

67
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,200
Speaker 1: And the reason that Greg Gutfeld is dominating, I think

68
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: is because he just kind of focus is on the

69
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: humor and these other guys have become so strident politically

70
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: and they're all coming from the same angle that there's

71
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 1: a huge opportunity for Greg Gutfeld. But I listened to

72
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,440
Speaker 1: this clip from Stephen Colbert on abortion, and I thought

73
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: to myself, One, this guy's not very smart in terms

74
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: of even what he's trying to say. But two, how

75
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: do we get to a place where a late night

76
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: comedian walks out onto the stage and this is the

77
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:34,320
Speaker 1: jokes in quotation marks jokes that he is making. Last month,

78
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 1: an ABC News Washington Post poll found that sixty percent

79
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: support upholding Row, compared to only twenty seven percent who

80
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 1: want to overturn it. If it is this unpopular. Why

81
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,880
Speaker 1: is everyone's saying that's going to happen. Well, and I

82
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 1: don't want to get too technical, but we what's the word,

83
00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,600
Speaker 1: don't live in a democracy. Five of the nine justices

84
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: were appointed by presidents who lost the popular vote, the

85
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,479
Speaker 1: last three confirmed by a Republican Senate who now forty

86
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: one million fewer Americans than the Democrats. In fact, Republican

87
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: senators haven't represented a majority of the US population since

88
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety six. A lot has changed since nineteen ninety six.

89
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 1: Back then, the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor went to

90
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: Kevin Spacey and the best director was Mel Gibson. All right,

91
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,080
Speaker 1: so the Spacey and the Gibson line. Maybe that's the

92
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 1: attempted joke there. But what he's really saying is if

93
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 1: Roe v. Wade gets overturned, it's going to be a

94
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,359
Speaker 1: sign that our democracy doesn't work. To me, it's the

95
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 1: exact opposite. See, the judges are not elected, they are

96
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 1: appointed for life. The idea that a judicial system should

97
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: determine a fundamental political question is what I believe has

98
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: made abortion such an incredibly contentious issue in this country.

99
00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 1: We actually would have more of a democracy. Stephen Albert

100
00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: if the justices overturned rov Wade and gave back the

101
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,480
Speaker 1: decision to determine whether or not abortion should be legal

102
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:15,919
Speaker 1: to all of the democratically elected representatives in every state.

103
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 1: If there is this great ground swell for abortion to

104
00:06:21,600 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: be legal in your individual state, then the politicians who

105
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 1: represent the people will allow abortion to be legal. If

106
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 1: there is a great ground swell of abortion not to

107
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: be legal in your state, then the politicians will be

108
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: elected who will vote against abortion being legal. What happened

109
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 1: that Stephen Colbert is defending is the very antithesis of democracy.

110
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,760
Speaker 1: Instead of our political system making a choice, hard as

111
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: it may be, about what we want the law to

112
00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: be on abortion, we allowed our politicians to punt the

113
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: issue to a court of unelected judges to determine what

114
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: the law of abortion is in the land. That has

115
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: created a great deal of antagonism and poisoned our judicial

116
00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: system because it has turned the appointment of justices into

117
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: a political proxy war over abortion. If individual elected politicians

118
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: have to make their choices on abortion public and readily

119
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: viewable for everyone, that is the very essence of what

120
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 1: a democracy is, because then all of us can decide

121
00:07:40,320 --> 00:07:44,680
Speaker 1: whether to vote for or against those elected officials who

122
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:50,000
Speaker 1: are letting their voice on abortion be determined. It's frustrating

123
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 1: to me that the Court would be attacked here for

124
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: potentially making the choice to overrule a precedent that was

125
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: never supported by basic American democracy in the first place.

126
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 1: What they would be exercising is not judicial activism. It's

127
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: judicial restraint. And what Colbert doesn't understand is that is

128
00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:17,400
Speaker 1: what is supposed to happen in our American democracy, where

129
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 1: we allow all of you to have your voices heard

130
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: directly when it comes to an issue such as this.

131
00:08:25,560 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: And again, I want to reiterate, so a lot of

132
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 1: people out there don't understand what's at stake with the

133
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 1: Mississippi abortion law. If Roe v. Wade were overturned, every

134
00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 1: individual state would decide whether or not abortion is legal.

135
00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 1: It would not end abortion in America. It would end

136
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: abortion in terms of the Supreme Court deciding it. Then

137
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: all fifty states would get to make a determination about

138
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: what the law is. That is ultimately far more democratic

139
00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: than allowing nine unelected justices to determine a fundamentally fundamentally,

140
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 1: in my opinion, political question. It's probably not a surprise

141
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: that Stephen Colbert is an idiot when it comes to

142
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,600
Speaker 1: analyzing an issue such as this, but it is kind

143
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,120
Speaker 1: of disappointing with all the writers that he has that

144
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: nobody would have pointed that out to him. By the way,

145
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: Legacy Box has made plans to be very busy this

146
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 1: time of year, satisfying families nationwide by bringing their family

147
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 1: memories back to life. This is a company that digitizes

148
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,120
Speaker 1: old family movies and videos and makes them all watchable

149
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 1: and sharable again. Box after box of old videotapes and

150
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,400
Speaker 1: super eight film shows up at Legacy Box campus facility

151
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Great town, my mom's hometown. Spent a

152
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 1: lot of time there as a kid. Every movie picture

153
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: in slide is digitized with a white glove kind of treatment.

154
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: Legacy Box isn't new at doing this. Ten years in

155

Speaker 1: the business and one point two million satisfied customers. They're

156

Speaker 1: by Rush on the EIP Network. Welcome back end Clay Travison,

170
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us.

171
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: Friday edition of the program. So it's a break there.

172
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: I told you that I was going to return and

173
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: discuss the federal vaccine mandate that appears to be blowing

174
00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 1: up in Joe Biden's face as the courts are striking

175
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 1: it down and Joe Mansion, a member of his own party,

176
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 1: West Virginia Democratic Senator, came out against it. Significant because

177
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: it means the majority of the United States Senate is

178
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,080
Speaker 1: now opposed to federal vaccine mandates, which makes it even

179
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: more difficult for Joe Biden to try to argue that

180
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 1: he has the authority under OSHA to force through this

181
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:40,239
Speaker 1: federal vaccine mandate. That doesn't mean, however, that the arguments

182
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,679
Speaker 1: in favor of it have ceased. In fact, they are

183
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 1: of course being doubled down on by little red lying

184
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: hood herself Jensaki. If you listen to cut eight here,

185
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,319
Speaker 1: she tries to argue that everybody out there who is

186
00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 1: making an argument against the vaccine mandate is just lost

187
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 1: their mind. Here is her argument. We have seen and

188
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 1: it has proven. It's not an opinion, it's not sort

189
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,080
Speaker 1: of political even that mandates work. Yeah, how's that going

190
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 1: to go? How's that going to happen? We're gonna see

191
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,040
Speaker 1: mandates or Republicans going to continue to fight this. I

192
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: bet they continue to fight it, no question about it.

193
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: I mean we saw a group of Republicans just tried

194
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:24,560
Speaker 1: to shut the government down because they don't think people

195
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: should have to get vaccinated or get tested. I mean,

196
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 1: that's bananas and crazy. What we're working to try to

197
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,239
Speaker 1: do right now is implement these mandates which are vaccinate

198
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:38,920
Speaker 1: or test either option very reasonable for businesses around the country.

199
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 1: And businesses. About sixty percent of businesses are already doing this. Okay,

200
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 1: So this is significant because I know a lot of

201
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: you out there are being forced or feeling forced to

202
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,920
Speaker 1: get a vaccine. So that is the argument that Jensaki

203
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 1: and crew that was on Morning Joe I believe making

204
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,520
Speaker 1: the argument that it's bananas and crazy not to have

205
00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 1: a vaccine mandate. We'll sender. Mike Lee fired back and

206
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 1: said basically that he doesn't understand how anyone could use

207
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:10,679
Speaker 1: government force to tell someone they needed to cooperate when

208
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 1: it came to vaccine mandates. I think it's it's difficult

209
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 1: to understand why anyone would want to use the overpowering

210
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 1: force the federal government to tell someone that if they

211
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 1: don't cooperate with the ordained presidential medical orthodoxy, they will

212
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 1: be fired. This isn't going away. It's gonna come back

213
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: up again. You'll come back up in any future voterrama.

214
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 1: It's gonna come back again every time we get the opportunity.

215
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,840
Speaker 1: So here's the argument that I would lay out. If

216
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:45,320
Speaker 1: your job is arguing that you have to get the

217
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: vaccine because of the Biden administration mandate, and remember Joe

218
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: Biden tried to argue that if you are employed by

219
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: a business that has over a hundred employees, then you

220
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: are obligated to follow this OSHA regulation and to comply

221
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: with the vaccine mandate by a set date. I believe

222
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: it was January fourth. The courts have struck down that mandate.

223
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,760
Speaker 1: So what I want all of you out there listening

224
00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: to know and have the ammunition for, is you should

225
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 1: be able to respond to your employer if they are

226
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: still enforcing this mandate and arguing, again, this is key.

227
00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 1: If they're arguing the reason why you have to do

228
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 1: it is because of Joe Biden's regulation, you should have

229
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: the ammunition to respond to your employer and say, federal

230
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 1: courts have actually struck down that mandate. It is not

231
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 1: in effect right now, so you don't have the ability

232
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 1: to defer to Joe Biden and argue, hey, you have

233
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 1: to get a vaccine right now under Joe Biden's order,

234
00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 1: because that order has been found to be unconstant. And

235
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:03,720
Speaker 1: I think there are a lot of you out there

236
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: who have not been informed by your employer that may

237
00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:10,960
Speaker 1: well have sent out an email, may well have had

238
00:15:10,960 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 1: a big public meeting when Joe Biden issued this mandate.

239
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,400
Speaker 1: They bet they haven't updated you and said, oh, by

240
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 1: the way, the courts have struck down and said this

241
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 1: is unconstitutional. I want you to be able to know

242
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,040
Speaker 1: that right now that mandate is not in effect. Now

243
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: if you're a federal employee, that's a little bit different

244
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 1: of a standard, because Joe Biden has more control over that.

245
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 1: But Joe Mansion and the majority of the United States

246
00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 1: Senate now have actually repudiated the Biden administration. The Fifth

247
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 1: Circuit has struck it down. It is not in effect

248
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: for private businesses to my knowledge anywhere in the country

249
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,360
Speaker 1: right now. And I think this is wildly important for

250
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 1: everyone out there listening right now who is at war.

251
00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: You have some ammunition in your favor to be able

252
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,440
Speaker 1: to say, no, I am not going to get this

253
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,080
Speaker 1: vaccine because the courts have struck down that mandate and

254
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: the United States Senate, the majority of them have now

255
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,800
Speaker 1: said they do not believe Joe Biden has the authority

256
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 1: to do this either. Now I'm not saying if your

257
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:23,400
Speaker 1: employer is trying to make an argument for another reason,

258
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: right They are all different sorts of things that employers

259
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:30,280
Speaker 1: can try to do, but many of them try to

260
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: avoid having their own policy on COVID vaccine and use

261
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 1: this Biden administration OSHA policy as the reason that they

262
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 1: were going to try to make this a reality. So

263
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,320
Speaker 1: I just want everybody to be aware of this, because

264
00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: most people in the media haven't done a very good

265
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 1: job covering this, and they certainly haven't talked about it.

266
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: And I thought it's wildly significant last night that Mansion

267
00:16:54,080 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: put out that statement to make it clear that there

268
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 1: is no legislative authority whatsoever to supplement Joe Biden's attempted

269
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 1: I believe unconstitutional COVID vaccine mandate. Now I want to

270
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: reiterate again too, and Buck and I always say this,

271
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 1: And by the way, Buck is outsick. He doesn't have COVID,

272
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 1: but he's outsick with a cold. He can barely talk.

273
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 1: So I'm in solo today that I'm not anti everybody

274
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:24,000
Speaker 1: getting the vaccine. I believe that if you were over

275
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,920
Speaker 1: sixty five years old, you should get the COVID vaccine,

276
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,480
Speaker 1: and you should also get the booster. I told my

277
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 1: own parents to do that as my advice. Obviously, I

278
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,120
Speaker 1: don't tell my parents do anything. They make their own choices.

279
00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: They raised me. They can make their own choices about

280
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 1: their health. But I told them, Hey, if I were you,

281
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,639
Speaker 1: this is what I do. They did. Buck made this,

282
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:47,200
Speaker 1: had the same conversation with his parents. But if you're

283
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 1: listening to me right now and you're thirty five years

284
00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,480
Speaker 1: old and you're healthy, you may have already had COVID

285
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,640
Speaker 1: like I did, and your employer is trying to tell

286
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,399
Speaker 1: you that you have to get the COVID vaccine to

287
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:03,680
Speaker 1: keep your job because of Joe Biden's mandate. No, there

288
00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: is no legal authority for that mandate right now, and

289
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: I think a lot of employers haven't even realized it

290
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,040
Speaker 1: because they wanted to use the Biden vaccine mandate is justification.

291
00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 1: And I haven't seen a lot of media coverage of

292
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: It's not going to surprise you that CNN and MSNBC

293
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 1: and Washington Post, the New York Times aren't spending a

294
00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: lot of time saying, Hey, employees out there, this is

295
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 1: a big deal. You need to be aware of what

296
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: actually is going on and what your legal rights are.

297
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 1: And I hope the millions of you out there who

298
00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:38,160
Speaker 1: will hear this discussion will at least be better informed

299
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 1: than you otherwise would based on what is going on

300
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: right now. I want you to make sure that all

301
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 1: of you are aware of the constitutional rights you have

302
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,600
Speaker 1: and also will stand up for your freedoms despite the

303
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,919
Speaker 1: fears of others, as I keep saying, and I think

304
00:18:54,960 --> 00:19:03,080
Speaker 1: it's significant your fears don't cancel out our constitutional freedoms.

305
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: The Constitution matters more in times of peril, more in

306
00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 1: times of danger, more in times of fear than it

307
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 1: does in times of peace. And I am hopeful that

308
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: many of our judges will finally stand up to this

309
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:23,320
Speaker 1: unconstitutional overreach that we are seeing from the Biden administration

310
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: as it pertains to COVID vaccine mandates. In the meantime,

311
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: I got a funny clip for you, and we come back.

312
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,560
Speaker 1: A lot of people make a lot of money these

313
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,919
Speaker 1: days in sports. Brian Kelly left Notre Dame to go

314
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: to LSU. In the process of that evidently two hour

315
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,960
Speaker 1: plane flight from South Bend to Baton Rouge, he has

316
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,440
Speaker 1: developed one of the worst Southern accents of all time.

317
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 1: Never had a Southern accent before. Born in the Northeast.

318
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 1: He addressed the LSU fans last night in the Pantheon

319
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: up there with con Air and Nicholas Cage up there

320
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,440
Speaker 1: with Kevin Spacey and House of Cards. If you are

321
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: a Southerner, this is going to be one of the

322
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: greatest fake Southern accents you have ever heard in your life.

323
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: Give you a little bit of a laugh as we

324
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: head into the second hour of the program. In the meantime,

362
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,399
Speaker 1: set an all time podcast download record in November. We

363
00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: want to do the same in December. We are joined

364
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:27,080
Speaker 1: now by Monica Crowley, former Assistant Treasury Secretary under Donald Trump,

365
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,760
Speaker 1: and Monica, we appreciate you coming on with us. I

366
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,240
Speaker 1: want to start right off the top here with the

367
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 1: massive miss when it came to new jobs. An expected

368
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:40,360
Speaker 1: number of five hundred and seventy three thousand came in

369
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 1: at two hundred and ten thousand. Why do you think

370
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,800
Speaker 1: that is? Hi, Clay, thank you so much for having me.

371
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,800
Speaker 1: It's great to be here. Well, yeah, we've got another

372
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 1: huge disappointment in the jobs reports for the month of November,

373
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: and actually over the last four months, three out of

374
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 1: the last four Clay have been disastrous, starting in August,

375
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 1: September and then November. October was sort of a more

376
00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,880
Speaker 1: positive report, but even that is being revised a little

377
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 1: bit downward. So it's clear now we're back into a

378
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 1: downward trend. It's also clear that the labor crunch that

379
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,960
Speaker 1: we have seen essentially since Biden became president is still

380
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,800
Speaker 1: in full effect, and there are a number of reasons

381
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: why we're not seeing jobs take off. The first thing

382
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 1: is that, you know, during the emergency last year, President

383
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:36,359
Speaker 1: Trump made the very difficult decision to do a wholesale

384
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:39,879
Speaker 1: shutdown of the US economy, and that was warranted because

385
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,120
Speaker 1: we had no idea what this ViRGE was or how

386
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,000
Speaker 1: it was going to behave and the whole world was

387
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,719
Speaker 1: shutting down, so there was no way that the United

388
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: States could be the only country not shutting down before

389
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: we had a real handle on what this was all about.

390
00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: So when we did that, the government also understood that

391
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: it needed to step into the breach. So we had

392
00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: to do this mergency level spending and create all of

393
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: these programs to get American workers and businesses through the

394
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 1: most acute period of the crisis. Well, that being said,

395
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: the crisis is now over. The emergency has long gone Clay,

396
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 1: But you've got unified democratic control in Washington between the

397
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 1: White House and Capitol Health, and what they have done

398
00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 1: is maintained emergency level spending absent the actual emergency, paying

399
00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 1: people more to stay at home than to go to work.

400
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,440
Speaker 1: And I don't care who you are. Most people are

401
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,280
Speaker 1: economically rational, and if you pay them more to stay

402
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 1: at home then go to work, that's exactly what they're

403
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: going to do. The other thing too, I think, which

404
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 1: is why over the last few months you've seen such

405
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:49,240
Speaker 1: a very soft labor market. Is these vaccine mandates. Certainly

406
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 1: in October and November when the discussion really started ranting

407
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 1: up about putting all these vaccs mandates. Since place, you've

408
00:24:56,080 --> 00:24:58,600
Speaker 1: seen a lot of people get fired, and you've seen

409
00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,760
Speaker 1: a lot of people very hesitant to get the shot

410
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:05,320
Speaker 1: to now their futures are very uncertain. They're leaving the

411
00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:08,760
Speaker 1: labor for summer coming back in. We've seen an interesting

412
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: dynamic there, But I think government policy is really continuing

413
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: to have this big wet blanket over the labor market.

414
00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 1: It's fascinating to think about the difference between and I

415
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: started off the show talking about this Monica red state

416
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 1: recovery economically versus Blue state recovery. While Biden is trumpeting

417
00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: the success of his policies, really it's red state America

418
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:37,120
Speaker 1: that is successful. If everybody looked like Blue state America

419
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: right now, where the numbers I have in front of

420
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: me right now, I mean California still has a seven

421
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 1: point three percent unemployment rate. New Jersey has a seven

422
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 1: percent unemployment rate, New York six point nine percent. These

423
00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: are the states that are most aggressively embracing Joe Biden's

424
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:59,119
Speaker 1: economic policies, and they're failing relative to the Florida's, the

425
00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: Texas is, the Alabama's, the Tennessee's of the world. Yeah.

426
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: In fact, seventeen of the top twenty states for job recovery.

427
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:12,200
Speaker 1: We're not talking about job creation here, we're just talking

428
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 1: about job recovery post pandemic. We're still in that phase.

429
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: So when the White House talks about, oh, we're creating

430
00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:23,199
Speaker 1: these all these new jobs, that is false. This is

431
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: a job recovery operation, not a job creation operation. At

432
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: this point, seventeen out of the top twenty states with

433
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,040
Speaker 1: job recovery, they're all led by Republicans. To your point,

434
00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 1: red states have been far more successful with this economic

435
00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 1: recovery than blue states. You mentioned some of those blue

436
00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: states with their unemployment rates. Clay New York City has

437
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 1: a ten percent unemployment rate. You see the same in

438
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: a lot of these deep blue cities too, like Chicago

439
00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: and Philadelphia and so on. Look policy matters. We know

440
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 1: what works. We sought for four years or President Trump

441
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:05,040
Speaker 1: who put in place a pro growth economic agenda, tax cuts,

442
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:10,400
Speaker 1: regulatory relief, FARA trade deals, and unleashing our grade energy sector,

443
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:14,920
Speaker 1: and the direct result was a booming economy with unemployment

444
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,480
Speaker 1: at at or near historic loads for every demographic group

445
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 1: and poverty at a historic low, including for African Americans.

446
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: So we know what works. The problem now is we've

447
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 1: got unified government under the Democrats who simply don't care.

448
00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 1: You know, it drives me crazy, Clay when I hear

449
00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 1: people talk about incompetence. Oh, Biden and his team are

450
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,960
Speaker 1: so incompetent, the Democrats are so incompetent. That is false.

451
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 1: This is not incompetence. This is totally deliberate. This is

452
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:48,440
Speaker 1: all about re engineering the US economy into a more collectivist,

453
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,040
Speaker 1: socialist kind of model. That's what they want. They do

454
00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,840
Speaker 1: not care about policies that actually work for American workers

455
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,840
Speaker 1: and businesses and industries. They do not care about that.

456
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 1: This is an ideaological jihad to re engineer, reshape the

457
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 1: country through the US economy. How important within that construct

458
00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,439
Speaker 1: is it for the Build Back Better Bill to not

459
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:15,280
Speaker 1: become law? Given that, I think you probably agree, by

460
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: the way we're talking with Monica Crowley, former Assistant Treasury

461
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:22,520
Speaker 1: Secretary under President Trump, that Republicans are going to sweep

462
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 1: back into power, certainly in the House in twenty twenty

463
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,639
Speaker 1: two and probably in the Senate as well, and that

464
00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,640
Speaker 1: means that the Democrats wouldn't be able to pass anything

465
00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,639
Speaker 1: for the remaining two years of the Biden administration, at

466
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,399
Speaker 1: least not with a lot of Republican support. Do you

467
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 1: think they're going to be able to ram through the

468
00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,360
Speaker 1: Build Back Better Bill, this massive multi trillion dollar cost

469
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:46,800
Speaker 1: package with Joe Manchin and Kirsten Cinema kind of sitting

470
00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: out there on the sideline still uncommitted, or do you

471
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 1: think that this thing is going to die on the vine? Well,

472
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people say, look, this is

473
00:28:56,160 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: for Democrats who are essentially Marxists the most part. There

474
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:03,239
Speaker 1: are some exceptions like the two you mentioned, but this

475
00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:08,880
Speaker 1: is essentially a Marxist party now that they view politics

476
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: simply as a vehicle to get their agenda done, the

477
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:16,640
Speaker 1: fundamental transformation of the nation. So just like with Obama

478
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: when he ran through Obamacare and then the Democrats suffered

479
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 1: mass losses in twenty ten and both houses flipped and

480
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: you saw thousands of Democrats lose their positions at all

481
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:33,720
Speaker 1: levels of government across the country. For them, they actually

482
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,560
Speaker 1: think that it's I mean, they'd rather be empowered than

483
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 1: not play. But if they have to lose power and

484
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: control temporarily, for them, it's worth it if they can

485
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: slam through the agenda and movie a written window even

486
00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 1: further and further left. So their whole view is, well,

487
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,600
Speaker 1: you can't really make a socialist omblet without breaking a

488
00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: few eggs. So if we have to lose a few

489
00:29:56,640 --> 00:30:00,120
Speaker 1: national elections here and there, it's okay, we'll come back

490
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,479
Speaker 1: at some point. Right, They're just trying to advance the

491
00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 1: ball down the field. Will they get build back better done?

492
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 1: You know, I know a lot of people are saying, well, yeah,

493
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,960
Speaker 1: because it's worth it for them just to slam something through,

494
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:18,560
Speaker 1: and it is possible. My view is that if we

495
00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 1: can make it past January first without them getting into

496
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:26,240
Speaker 1: bill done, then the odds go way down because you

497
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:30,520
Speaker 1: still have a lot of vulnerable Democrats in purple states

498
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:34,440
Speaker 1: and districts or red states and districts who are coming

499
00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 1: up for reelection next year. Do they really want to

500
00:30:38,120 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 1: go back to their constituents and say, I raise your

501
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: taxes during an election year. I'm not convinced that all

502
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 1: of this is going to go through. Now. I could

503
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: be wrong, and the Democrats could slam something into place,

504
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 1: and they'll probably get some kind of compromise. But I

505
00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,600
Speaker 1: think the timetable is going to be really crucial here,

506
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: and just keep leaning on all of these people, especially

507
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: the most vulnerable Democrats, that if they do this, they

508
00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 1: are committing political suicide. We're talking to Monica Crowley, former

509
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:13,120
Speaker 1: Assistant Treasury secretary under President Trump. Last question for you, Monica,

510
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: I appreciate the time. Do you think Donald Trump is

511
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:21,720
Speaker 1: going to run for reelection in twenty twenty four? I do, actually,

512
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:25,479
Speaker 1: I do. You know he hasn't certainly hasn't told me,

513
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: and he hasn't told anybody else for sure. But my

514
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,760
Speaker 1: sense is that he is going to run, and I

515
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 1: think he's going to run for a number of reasons.

516
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 1: First of all, he talks about having to bring America back,

517
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: make America great again again, and he's frankly the only

518
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 1: one who can bring the US economy back a third time.

519
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 1: He did it when he first came into office. He

520
00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:51,520
Speaker 1: did it last year during the pandemic when we were

521
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,719
Speaker 1: coming out of that, and he's the only leader on

522
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:56,680
Speaker 1: the scene as far as I can see, who could

523
00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 1: do it a third time. So I think he still

524
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,960
Speaker 1: loved the country that I think he's going to do

525
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:05,360
Speaker 1: it for that reason, But also I think he wants

526
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,640
Speaker 1: to clean up the historical record. I mean, I really

527
00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:13,000
Speaker 1: think that he sees what happens in twenty twenty and

528
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:15,920
Speaker 1: he wants to give it another run. And again, I'm

529
00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 1: only speaking for myself and speculation, but knowing the president

530
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,720
Speaker 1: as I do, and knowing how much he really cares

531
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 1: about this country, I think he look if all things

532
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 1: are equal and his health stays great and Biden continues

533
00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 1: to mess up the country beyond all recognition, I think

534
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,320
Speaker 1: he is going to likely make another run at it,

535
00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 1: and I think we'd be blessed if he were to

536
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,400
Speaker 1: do that. I know I said last question, But if

537
00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 1: he runs, it seems clear that Mike Pence would not

538
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 1: be his running mate as vice president. Is there somebody

539
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,040
Speaker 1: you'd like to see him pick? Is there a vice

540
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,840
Speaker 1: presidential candidate? Obviously you'd only have four years to serve,

541
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 1: so his vice presidential pick would be so massively important

542
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 1: because if he won in twenty twenty four, the presumptive

543
00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:02,520
Speaker 1: candidate in twenty twenty eight would be that vice president.

544
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 1: Is there somebody you love that you think would be

545
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,360
Speaker 1: a good match, Well, you know, no one in particular,

546
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 1: But I do know that the Republicans have an extraordinary

547
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 1: deep base of talent who are populists as well as

548
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: conservatives who could really work with Trump. And if Trump

549
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 1: doesn't run, they can certainly run on their own and

550
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:25,240
Speaker 1: be extremely successful. I think, look, whether it's Trump or

551
00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:28,880
Speaker 1: anybody else, Clay, the truth is that Biden is making

552
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: such a catastrophe out of the country and frankly out

553
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 1: of the free world, that all the candidate would have

554
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:38,560
Speaker 1: to do a stand there and point two points to

555
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,040
Speaker 1: the Biden in the catastrophe that he has created. And

556
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 1: when I think, look, you've got Ronda Santis, You've got

557
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,560
Speaker 1: Christie Nome, You've got Tim Scott out of South Carolina,

558
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,040
Speaker 1: You've got Mike Pompeo, We've got a very de bench,

559
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:57,720
Speaker 1: a very very talented people, Ted Cruz. So I think

560
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,120
Speaker 1: whether or not Trump runs, I think we are in

561
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,520
Speaker 1: very good standing going into twenty twenty four. I agree

562
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,640
Speaker 1: with you, Monica. We appreciate the time. Have a great weekend.

563
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:12,080
Speaker 1: My pleasure. Thanks Clay, thank you. When you'll look back

564
00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 1: at this year and ask yourself, what steps did you

565
00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:17,360
Speaker 1: take to protect the value of your savings account or

566
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:21,040
Speaker 1: your IRA? Will it include the purchase of gold. Protection's

567
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: important for your portfolio, and purchasing real gold as a

568
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:26,960
Speaker 1: part of that plan is made possible by our partners

569
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:30,160
Speaker 1: at Oxford Gold Group. They can arrange the purchase of

570
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,359
Speaker 1: real gold and they can have it delivered to your

571
00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:35,720
Speaker 1: home too. The consistent measure of gold against all markets

572
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 1: and investment types has proven gold's value in helping to

573
00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: protect the value of your hard saved dollars. So if

574
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 1: you think buying real golds complicated, our friends at Oxford

Speaker 1: cover his head, sleep as much as possible, and fluidate substantially.

589
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:47,480
Speaker 1: If you've been listening to the show, you know we've

590
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 1: been talking about an absolute ton of stories new jobs

591
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,920
Speaker 1: with from the Biden administration. Five hundred and seventy three

592

Speaker 1: thousand expected, only two hundred and ten thousand in reality,

593

Speaker 1: all different sort of angles here. Joe Manchin has announced

Speaker 1: he's opposed to the privates vaccine mandate Fauci. I got

Speaker 1: gonna love. Alec Baldwin doing his interview with Stephan novelist.

597
00:36:13,080 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 1: We talked with Monica Crowley about the failures of the

598
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 1: Biden administration as it pertains to the economy at play.

599
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 1: We've had some fun with Brian Kelly, the new LSU

600
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,320
Speaker 1: football coach and his awful Southern accent, and we bring

601
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: in now the man who knows a little bit about

602
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,640

603
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:38,080
Speaker 1: Trophy winner, all time legend, and maybe the man who

604
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,720
Speaker 1: is going to flip back control of the United States

605
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 1: Senate to Republicans from Democrats. Herschel, what's up, my MANU

Speaker 1: in Atlanta? Yet I am in Atlanta. How are you doing?

607
00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 1: I'm doing fantastically well. So I want to start with

608
00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 1: this question. We'll get to your bulldogs, who have a

609
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: chance to beat Alabama and advance to the college football

610
00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: playoff here in a moment. But you are on the road.

611
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 1: We've had you on a couple of times on that.

612
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:07,960
Speaker 1: You did the Fox College football pregame show with me,

613

Speaker 1: had you on with Me with Hannity from down at

614
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: the Georgia Florida game in Jacksonville. How are you liking

615
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 1: the campaign and what's it like to be running for

616
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,080
Speaker 1: Senate compared to the other things that you've done in

617
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 1: your life? Well, you know, and I'm gonna be honest, Skill.

618
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 1: I always try to be honest with the people. You know,

619
00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:30,200
Speaker 1: when I first started and I didn't know what to aspect.

620
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,720
Speaker 1: You know, people always tell you how terrible, how bad

621
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,839
Speaker 1: it is a people going to come after you, and

622
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 1: after I got into all my different listening sessions and

623
00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,200
Speaker 1: started looking talking to the people and traveled on be honest,

624
00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:45,600
Speaker 1: this is the best thing I ever done in my

625
00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,720
Speaker 1: life because this is an opportunity that I can help people.

626
00:37:49,239 --> 00:37:51,800
Speaker 1: And when I've had spending much time with the military

627
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:53,799
Speaker 1: that I've spent and been around a lot of our

628
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:57,360
Speaker 1: law enforcement and just listening to the people, I see

629
00:37:57,400 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 1: that this country needs some help. You know that we're

630
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:02,960
Speaker 1: the greatest country in the world right now, we need

631
00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 1: some help. We need people that's going to be honest.

632
00:38:04,960 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 1: We need people that care about this country, need people

633
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 1: that care about these kids and care about law enforcement

634
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,439
Speaker 1: and here public face it, people that's going to talk

635
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,560
Speaker 1: up and tell people that you know, have faith and

636
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,399
Speaker 1: because it is sad that we seem to be going

637
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: away from things that that is so free to this

638
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,240
Speaker 1: country that we're trying to get away from it. Herschel,

639
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,839
Speaker 1: It's interesting you're good friends with Donald Trump, and obviously

640
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is not a career politician. If he hadn't

641
00:38:32,080 --> 00:38:35,359
Speaker 1: run for president and got an elected president, do you

642
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 1: think you would have ended up in politics. Yeah, I

643
00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 1: still probably would have because Donald Trump had nothing to

644
00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 1: do with me running, you know, And he talked about

645
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:46,520
Speaker 1: me running on Fox that had nothing to do whether

646
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 1: I was going to run or not. You know, I

647
00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,880
Speaker 1: went into prayer about it, you know, and I and

648
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 1: I told people, I say, this is not something I

649
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,960
Speaker 1: thought I'd ever do in my life. It was something

650
00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,440
Speaker 1: that was called upon me. And as I looked at it,

651
00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:01,799
Speaker 1: I realized that, you know, my life ain't about men,

652
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:03,960
Speaker 1: is about helping other people. You know, if I can

653
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 1: say that I love the Lord Jesus, if I can

654
00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: tell kids to go out and sacrifice and make good grades,

655
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 1: to do what you want to do, I can tell

656
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,759
Speaker 1: the mildity what the military is sacrificing. Our men in

657
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:17,239
Speaker 1: blue are sacrificing. And yet all I've done is throw

658
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,279
Speaker 1: a football around. All I've done and been on a

659
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:23,319
Speaker 1: track field or a bob sled. Those are great privileges

660
00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: that I had on the backs of people that fault

661
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: to give me. These freedoms I have in this country. Well,

662
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:31,480
Speaker 1: right now there's an opportunity where I can change some things.

663
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,800
Speaker 1: I can go out and maybe be a voice to

664
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:36,760
Speaker 1: let the people know that I'm behind the American people,

665
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 1: I'm behind this country, this is not a terrible country.

666
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 1: This is not a racist country. This is not a

667
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:44,680
Speaker 1: country that people don't want to work. People do want

668
00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:47,280
Speaker 1: to work. This is a country that we can come together,

669
00:39:47,600 --> 00:39:49,960
Speaker 1: that we can solve problems. We've done it time and

670
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,960
Speaker 1: time again. And just because we elected some people to

671
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 1: Washington that doesn't seem to want to do their job,

672
00:39:56,000 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 1: that doesn't seem to want to believe in the constitution,

673
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 1: don't give up faith, don't give up because I'm gonna

674
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: get elected and I'm gonna tell them that you can

675
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: believe in those things. You can have that America's dream

676
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,920
Speaker 1: that I've had. Hey man, why do you think so

677
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: many athletes and entertainers have gotten wrapped up in saying

678
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,960
Speaker 1: America is an awful place? You and I obviously disagree

679
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: and think America is the greatest country that's ever existed

680
00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:21,839
Speaker 1: in the history of the world. Why do you think

681
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:25,319
Speaker 1: it's become so trendy for athletes and entertainers to tear

682
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,080
Speaker 1: down America? Well, that is very simple. Look at the

683
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,319
Speaker 1: council culture we're in right now. Right now, you can't

684
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,239
Speaker 1: even agree to disagree right now. If you speak out

685
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:38,360
Speaker 1: on something, uh, you know you're gonna get chests, speedp

686
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,399
Speaker 1: gonna come down on you. You'll want to. The worst

687
00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 1: thing that happened is early on with the BLM when

688
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,560
Speaker 1: they wanted to put like don't stand, do stand what

689
00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,319
Speaker 1: you're gonna do for the for the national anthem? And

690
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, we're gonna do this here, and you

691
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: have some players on that team that didn't get divorce.

692
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,279
Speaker 1: I can guarantee that some of the players on a

693
00:40:55,360 --> 00:40:57,520
Speaker 1: team that wanted to disagree, but they were not going

694
00:40:57,560 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 1: to speak up. They were not going to speak up

695
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: because they were to get chastised that we're gonna get

696
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 1: put down, and you know, and that's what's said. We

697
00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 1: gotta get away from that. Why don't we remove this

698
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,680
Speaker 1: this racism out of here, we quit talking about it

699
00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:13,359
Speaker 1: and move on, because you know, we are Americans and

700
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,839
Speaker 1: I'm tired of hearing this about black, white African American US.

701
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 1: You know, if you're living in America, why don't you

702
00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 1: just be an American? You know? I asked my son

703
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: this the other day as a Christian, because I didn't know.

704
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:27,640
Speaker 1: I was totally confused. What do he put down on

705
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,759
Speaker 1: his sheet? And he said, Dad, I put down other

706
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,719
Speaker 1: And I said, my son is not an other, He's

707
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 1: an American. And you know what if he's another, we

708
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:38,640
Speaker 1: have a lot of others in this country because twenty

709
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 1: three and me is just screwed us all up. You know,

710
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: we all have different races within us, so we all others.

711
00:41:45,120 --> 00:41:46,719
Speaker 1: So why don't we just get down to being an

712
00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,600
Speaker 1: American who we are, but checked in this country, but

713
00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:52,760
Speaker 1: checked in this citizen, sending our kids in school, putting

714
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 1: people back in the world, getting this economy down. This

715
00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 1: an economy. This economy is blowing people out of the

716
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,239
Speaker 1: roof hid in the world. Can you enjoyed Christmas when

717
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 1: you can't even buy gifts? The gas prices is going

718
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,359
Speaker 1: up and people don't even know the reason why. Well,

719
00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,399
Speaker 1: the reason why what he did with the pipeline, gave

720
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,000
Speaker 1: it away, that's one of the biggest reasons. So everything

721
00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:13,840
Speaker 1: now is going up. Can't people stuff on his shelves, PAMs,

722
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,880
Speaker 1: can't go to the grocery store herschel You're saying a

723
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,680
Speaker 1: lot of things I think people agree with out there,

724
00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 1: And it's fun because I've been on my bus tour

725
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,960
Speaker 1: all over the South meeting white, Black, Asian and Hispanic people,

726
00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 1: and at your point, we all have a lot more

727
00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:31,400
Speaker 1: in common than we do apart, but it feels like

728
00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,759
Speaker 1: many people in the media are trying to tear us

729
00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 1: apart every day. I bet on your tour around George,

730
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 1: as you've begun your campaign, you've found that out right,

731
00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,960
Speaker 1: how much more people in Georgia and around the country

732
00:42:43,000 --> 00:42:46,760
Speaker 1: have in common than they do apart. I've totally totally

733
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,160
Speaker 1: found that out. Then, you know what's so strange about

734
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:52,359
Speaker 1: it is, Yeah, I'm a big Judge Judah fan, and

735
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: she makes a statement that is so so true. She said,

736
00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:57,919
Speaker 1: you know you got two ears and one mouth. Why

737
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,880
Speaker 1: don't you close your mouth and listen? Because if we listen,

738
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:02,960
Speaker 1: we can hear each other. But yet we want to

739
00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 1: yell at each other and argue with each other rather

740
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:09,000
Speaker 1: than coming up with solutions. They're not problems. You know,

741
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,359
Speaker 1: if we start thinking about the easier thing we can

742
00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: fix first, The easier things we can fix first, you

743
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:16,600
Speaker 1: because we can get that done. Let's not try to

744
00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,480
Speaker 1: come onto a complicated thing. We can get the things done.

745
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 1: And people ask me, why do I want to run

746
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 1: for office? The reason I want to run is I

747
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,360
Speaker 1: love America. The reason I want to run and I

748
00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:28,319
Speaker 1: love it. I love this I love the Constitution. You know,

749
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,520
Speaker 1: I want to run because of that. I love this

750
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 1: country I live in. I'm not an African American. I've

751
00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,239
Speaker 1: never been to Africa, and I'm sorry to say that.

752
00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:38,280
Speaker 1: I'm an American. I'm an American. I live in America,

753
00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,560
Speaker 1: and I got an American sign, got American wife, and

754
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,200
Speaker 1: I'm an American. So let's get back to being that

755
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 1: and solving the problems we have here and and get

756
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 1: out of all this stuff we can have. Right now,

757
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,920
Speaker 1: going home, we're talking to Herschel Walker. All right, one

758
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:54,440
Speaker 1: of the things that's going on. I'm gonna hop in

759
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:56,160
Speaker 1: my car and drive down to Atlanta as soon as

760
00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 1: I'm finished with the show here today, Herschel your Bulldogs

761
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:04,239
Speaker 1: are playing against the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday tomorrow

762
00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:10,479
Speaker 1: in the Georgia Dome Big Time SEC Championship Game. What happens, Well,

763
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a great game. I said, I think

764
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,480
Speaker 1: Georgia is gonna win this game. And then I'm gontaee

765
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 1: you the reason why. I don't think this team is

766
00:44:17,080 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 1: intimidated by Alabama. But I think if people need to

767
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:23,760
Speaker 1: realize Alabama is a great team. Coach Savan always always

768
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 1: put a great team out on the field, and we

769
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,280
Speaker 1: can't look at it how Alabama has played in the past.

770
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 1: You know, you saw him player against all rend and

771
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 1: so it was a close game, but they poured it out.

772
00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,279
Speaker 1: Was a closed game, but they won it. Guys, Alabama

773
00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 1: has got a great, great program. But I think Georgia

774
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:40,760
Speaker 1: right now is playing at the top of the game

775
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,400
Speaker 1: and there. But one of the things George got to realize,

776
00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 1: this is the beginning of that season right here. You

777
00:44:47,280 --> 00:44:49,560
Speaker 1: gotta go out and beat Alabama. Don't worry bout anything

778
00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 1: else because Alabama is a tough, tough ball game. But

779
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:54,839
Speaker 1: Georgia got the team to beat it. I think coach

780
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,239
Speaker 1: Smart has done an incredible, incredible job. They get those

781
00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,799
Speaker 1: guys prepared. But those guy it is coming to play.

782
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 1: You see that they're having fun. I think that's one

783
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:04,880
Speaker 1: of the biggest keys. You go out there and you

784
00:45:05,000 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 1: have fun. Because if that defense get want to go

785
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,040
Speaker 1: out and have fun, they're gonna play foot They're gonna

786
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,080
Speaker 1: play football, and I think the same thing gonna have

787
00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,399
Speaker 1: the win to the offense. You see the defense having fun,

788
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:16,600
Speaker 1: Now you want to go out and have fun. And

789
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 1: this is like playing at home. You know, Athens is

790
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:23,440
Speaker 1: what seventy miles away from Atlanta, so it's like playing

791
00:45:23,440 --> 00:45:26,080
Speaker 1: at home. You know, it's gonna be an incredible game.

792
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,799
Speaker 1: Whoever can buy a ticket. I can sit on television

793
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 1: and I'm not putting any other team down, but I

794
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,880
Speaker 1: think you're watching the two best college football team play

795
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: this coming Saturday. It's been forty one year since you

796
00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 1: won a national championship with Georgia in nineteen eighty, Herschel.

797
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,880
Speaker 1: Would you have ever believed it would be two generations

798
00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 1: before Georgia potentially would win another one when you won

799
00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,759
Speaker 1: it back in nineteen eighty, I wouldn't never thought that,

800
00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: you know, you know, they've come so closed, and I

801
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,360
Speaker 1: think this is a year that they can close or

802
00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:01,799
Speaker 1: do and make that happened. You know, you know, I

803
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,880
Speaker 1: never thought I can never win a championship. And I

804
00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,360
Speaker 1: have an opportunity last night to be the coach Doody,

805
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:09,839
Speaker 1: and I'm reminded him of something he said to us

806
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,200
Speaker 1: at the very beginning of that training camp. He said, men,

807
00:46:13,400 --> 00:46:16,000
Speaker 1: we come together, we go out, and we stay together,

808
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:19,040
Speaker 1: we fight together. We can win a championship. And I

809
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:21,120
Speaker 1: think I can see that what Coach Smart has this

810
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:24,439
Speaker 1: team doing is playing together. That there's not one hero

811
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:27,600
Speaker 1: on that team. They're all heroes. And and that's where

812
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:29,439
Speaker 1: I felt that we had at Georgia, and I see

813
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,920
Speaker 1: that in this team. And one thing I said early on,

814
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,200
Speaker 1: and people would say, oh, geez, don't say that, as

815
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,520
Speaker 1: I think this team here is better. I think this

816
00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:38,600
Speaker 1: team is better than the team I played on. I'm

817
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,319
Speaker 1: not putting that team I played on down because the

818
00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 1: team I played on was incredible. But I think this

819
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,320
Speaker 1: team here got the potential to do some incredible things

820
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 1: and they're showing it. I don't feel that's showing what

821
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,280
Speaker 1: they can do. And you know, I threw Jordan David's

822
00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:55,480
Speaker 1: name in the Heiser Trophy and I said, guys, who

823
00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:58,760
Speaker 1: is not a more colorful guy playing on that defense

824
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 1: than Jordan Davis's incredible. What you're seeing play, you're seeing run.

825
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:04,920
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. And I'm not putting in a

826
00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: hypen other hyping candidate down, but why Jordan David's name

827
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,319
Speaker 1: out not on that list? Oh it's well sad. By

828
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:15,800
Speaker 1: the way, we're having some fun on Friday. I understand

829
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: that your Golden Retriever has a Twitter handle. How is

830
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 1: he being received at Cheerio Walker? How is he being

831
00:47:23,840 --> 00:47:28,000
Speaker 1: received your dogs? So far? On Twitter? He is doing well.

832
00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 1: Let me tell you what. After he got here to Georgia,

833
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 1: everyone thought I were gonna come in with the bullet all,

834
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,880
Speaker 1: and I came in with Cheerio. He's a golden Retriever

835
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 1: and he's got some style. Tell you very good looking, though,

836
00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:40,879
Speaker 1: he's very good looking. But let me tell you he's

837
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,640
Speaker 1: a prima donna. I gotta get him kind of tough.

838
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:46,239
Speaker 1: He's not like Ugga. I gotta get him a little

839
00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:49,759
Speaker 1: bit tougher Cheerios more. You know, having a wife who

840
00:47:49,800 --> 00:47:52,400
Speaker 1: loved animals as well, he's always dressing him up with

841
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 1: things around his necks, making him that's not a Cheerio there.

842
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 1: So we gotta keep Cheerio looking tough. I said, you

843
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:02,040
Speaker 1: gotta look tough and christ and absolutely loving. That was

844
00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 1: his dog. And he goes off to college. He leave

845
00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 1: Cheery over with us. And now he's got a Twitter,

846
00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,239
Speaker 1: got people coming over want to do pictures with him,

847
00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 1: and they can put him on his Twitter account because

848
00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: he got a couple of followers right now. Herschel Tell

849
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 1: your wife, I said, Hi, She's fantastic as well. Good
