1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,359 Speaker 1: Walk back in hour number two, Clay Travis Buck Sexton 2 00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,080 Speaker 1: Show appreciate all of you hanging out with us. Rolling 3 00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: through the Friday edition of the show, Buck and his 4 00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,320 Speaker 1: lovely wife Carrie, and their little baby boy are visiting 5 00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 1: with his dad for his dad's birthday. He will be 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,360 Speaker 1: back with me on Monday. They've taken the first trip 7 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,920 Speaker 1: with the baby. He did not cry on the airplane, 8 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: which is good for Buck because at some point we're 9 00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 1: gonna have to pull back up the audio of Buck 10 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:32,239 Speaker 1: talking about how baby should never cry on airplanes. I 11 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,240 Speaker 1: think it was like the first year that we were together, 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 1: before he was married, before he had a kid of 13 00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:38,720 Speaker 1: his own. Now, his baby has so far been very 14 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: good on an airplane. But I told him, I test. 15 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: I was like, dude, at some point, every one of 16 00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 1: my kids has thrown up on me on an airplane, 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: all three of them, and at different times when they 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 1: were young. And I told him, at some point, the 19 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 1: wheels are gonna come off, and you're gonna come on, 20 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,959 Speaker 1: You're gonna tell me about and I'm going to pull 21 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: the audio of you talking about I don't know why 22 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: the parents just don't stop that baby from crying like. 23 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: I what's the deal. Just tell the baby to stop crying. 24 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: So so far, baby boy Sexton has not cried on 25 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: the airplane, but I'm telling you this is coming. We've 26 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 1: been talking about the fallout of Russia Gate, also the 27 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: continued discussion surrounding the Epstein files and everything going on there, 28 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: and we've got a ton of you that want to 29 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: weigh in. But I do want to go back to 30 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,960 Speaker 1: something that I said yesterday because I think it actually 31 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: goes to the root of how all of this started. 32 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,759 Speaker 1: You ever go back to the root of things and say, 33 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: how do we ever get in this mess to start with? 34 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: I think it's super instructive. It reminds me of my 35 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: golf game. I don't play golf that often, but what 36 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: I love about golf is you have to constantly follow 37 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 1: what you did before, and that, to me is why 38 00:01:56,440 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: golf is a perfect distillation of life. If you hit 39 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: a bad shot, you have to deal with the consequences 40 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: of the bad shot. And trust me, I deal with 41 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: the consequences of a lot of bad shots in my 42 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 1: golf game. When you shank a shot off to the 43 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: right and you're in the trees, presuming that you are 44 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,160 Speaker 1: playing golf as it is intended to get play. Sometimes 45 00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: you don't. You don't get to pick the ball up 46 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: and throw it back into the center of the fairway. 47 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,760 Speaker 1: You have to play the ball where it lies. You 48 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: have to deal with a really difficult second shot, and 49 00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: sometimes you get the choice to make do you try 50 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: to hit a hero shot on that second shot or 51 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 1: do you take your medicine and just knock it back 52 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:39,639 Speaker 1: in the fairway and be prepared for the third. And 53 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,640 Speaker 1: I understand some of you don't play golf, but I 54 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: think the metaphor of life and golf interplays very well. 55 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 1: And if you finish the round, you go back and 56 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: you can say, boy, where did my game really go. 57 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: Fall apart? 58 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: So it may be like you just stake a golf 59 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: and that's me, and so there's no one thing that 60 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: you did wrong. But if you're a really good golfer, 61 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: you can go back and you can say, boy, on eight, 62 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: I really had the wrong club there. I didn't factor 63 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: in the wind, and that's when my round kind of 64 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: fell apart and I never really came back from it. 65 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: I think about this as it pertains to Russia Gate, 66 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: and I think this is so important. 67 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 2: Why did Russia Gate. 68 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: Happen because Democrats couldn't figure out how Trump won. They 69 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: thought Hillary was a shoe in. They wanted to shatter 70 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: the glass ceiling, they wanted all of the balloons to 71 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: come falling, and they couldn't comprehend that they lost to Trump. 72 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: This reality television show guy, this what in their mind, 73 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: thoroughly unserious candidate. I was thinking about it this week 74 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: and I came up with an analogy that some of 75 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: you may think is crazy, but up you you're going 76 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: to be like, you know what, Yeah, I totally see it. 77 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: Tom Brady is the best quarterback in the history of 78 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: the NFL. Now, some of you may be out there, 79 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: die hard cold to Broncos fans. You might be arguing 80 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:15,720 Speaker 1: Peyton Manning. Some of you are Kansas City Chiefs fans. 81 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: You may argue for Patrick Mahomes. But I want to 82 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 1: take you back to the inception of Tom Brady for 83 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: a moment. In two thousand and two, Tom Brady won 84 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:32,920 Speaker 1: his first Super Bowl and they beat Rushes, heavily favored 85 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: at the time, still in Saint Louis Rams football team. 86 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: Some of you are going to remember that game, and 87 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,480 Speaker 1: a lot of people said, how in the world did 88 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: this happen? How did Kurt Warner NFL MVP, probably the 89 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: best quarterback in the NFL at that point in time, 90 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: greatest show on turf, best offense. The Rams were a 91 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 1: huge favorite in that game to win their second straight 92 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: Super Bowl, or nearly the second straight Super Bowl, and 93 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: instead they lost, and everybody said, how in the world 94 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: did this happen? How did the Rams who were so good? 95 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner throws for over three hundred yards. I was 96 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 1: actually during the commercial break, I was looking up the 97 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 1: stats on this game because I thought it was interesting. 98 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: And Kurt Warner threw for over three hundred yards. Tom 99 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 1: Brady didn't do hardly anything. Kurt Warner three hundred and 100 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:31,440 Speaker 1: sixty five yards passing, Tom Brady one hundred and forty 101 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,239 Speaker 1: five yards passing. It was a big difference in numbers. 102 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: People said, man, this is a huge upset. I don't 103 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 1: know how this happened. How did Tom Brady beat Kurt Warner. Well, 104 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: then come to find out, actually Tom Brady's one of 105 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: the greatest of all time, and he would go on 106 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 1: and he would win six more Super Bowls, play in 107 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: ten total Super Bowls, and in retrospect, you go back 108 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: and you look at that two two thousand and two 109 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: Super Bowl and you say, boy, that was just the 110 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:12,400 Speaker 1: first sign that this guy was built different. And over 111 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,360 Speaker 1: time everybody came to see, oh, yeah, Kurt Warner, he's 112 00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: a good quarterback, but Brady was different. I would submit 113 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: to you that the twenty sixteen election, a lot of 114 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: people didn't get yet that Donald Trump was built different. 115 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: And so in the immediate aftermath, they're saying, boy, Hillary Clinton, 116 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,720 Speaker 1: she's Kurt Warner, she's the rams, she's the favorite, she 117 00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 1: should never lose this election. And the original sin of 118 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:50,040 Speaker 1: all of Russia Gate was a disbelief in Donald Trump's 119 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 1: innate political gifts. Think about where we are right now. 120 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 1: I loved watching Tom Brady when he played for the 121 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Buccaneers because I knew we didn't have a 122 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 1: lot of time left with Tom Brady and I just 123 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: wanted to celebrate his career. I feel that way about 124 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 1: Trump right now. People are climbing all over attacking him 125 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: and everything else. But the reason Russia Gate happened was 126 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 1: because Democrats hadn't seen yet that Trump was built different. 127 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: I think the best president since Reagan on the Republican 128 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: side generational political talent, and so much like when Brady 129 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: won that first super Bowl, they didn't know what was 130 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,679 Speaker 1: to come. They went back and they said something had 131 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: to happen other than just Trump being the politician that 132 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: he is, the political talent that he is. They thought 133 00:07:55,360 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: that he was just a total schmuck, and so they 134 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:06,080 Speaker 1: said something had to happen here. There's no way that 135 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,600 Speaker 1: Hillary really lost this election to that guy. There's no 136 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 1: way Kurt Warner just lost the Super Bowl to Tom Brady. 137 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: And now as we sit in twenty twenty five, I 138 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 1: am telling you we are rapidly accelerating towards instead of 139 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: being Hitler. Soon you're going to start here Democrats acknowledge 140 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: Trump is actually the greatest political talent of the Republican 141 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: Party in two generations. They're gonna pivot really quickly from 142 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: the guy's Hitler to They're never going to be able 143 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: to replicate what this guy is capable of. Why do 144 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 1: I bring all this to bear. Don't take for granted 145 00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: the immense, incredible good fortune that we have with Donald 146 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:02,599 Speaker 1: Trump in office right now. 147 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 2: Because he's not perfection. 148 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: I think there is an element out there, and I 149 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: think the Epstein case is a part of it where 150 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: we have I think the greatest six months that we 151 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,959 Speaker 1: have ever seen in my life of a president doing 152 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,359 Speaker 1: exactly what he said he was going to do, economy, 153 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 1: border crime. He could not have delivered better than he has. 154 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 1: And we have an innate tendency to decide to fixate 155 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: on the one thing that's not perfect, the two things 156 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: that aren't exactly what we would have done if we 157 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: were in that position, and not enjoy and appreciate the 158 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 1: good fortune that we actually find ourselves in right now. 159 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: And I think Democrats, if you go back and look 160 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 1: at the origination of why Russia Gate happened, it was 161 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: simply because they couldn't comprehend hind that Trump was as 162 00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:04,680 Speaker 1: good of a political. 163 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,560 Speaker 2: Thoroughbred as he was. Now. 164 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 1: Look, I decided, and some of you are gonna be 165 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: upset about this. I decided once and for all when 166 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: Trump took a bullet that I was not going to 167 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: take him for granted. When he got his ear clipped, 168 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,680 Speaker 1: I said, I will run through a wall for this guy. 169 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: I have got his back for this entire term. Doesn't 170 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: mean he's going to be perfect, doesn't mean that we're 171 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: not going to come on this show and sometimes say, boy, 172 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: I wish he'd done that a little bit different. I 173 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 1: wish he'd been less of a bullet a china shop. 174 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,080 Speaker 1: I wish they had communicated on this issue a little 175 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: bit better. But I focus a lot on intent. What 176 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: is the goal, and if your intent is a good place, 177 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: sometimes you're going to screw things up. And I think 178 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: sports is another good analogy of this. It's frustrating when 179 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 1: a player jumps off sides on third down, but it's 180 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:58,160 Speaker 1: an error of trying to do too much. I would 181 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 1: rather somebody try to do too much and sometimes screw up, 182 00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 1: then not be able to take aggressive action and not 183 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,839 Speaker 1: do enough. Trump's errors, if you go look at him, 184 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 1: are almost always going to be trying to do too much. 185 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 1: He's trying to make too much happen. He's trying to 186 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 1: change too much. He's trying to do as much as 187 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: he possibly can in what is a relatively short period 188 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 1: of time. I'm a history nerd. The older I get, 189 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: the more I sit around and say, boy, you know, 190 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: a four year presidential term is really not very much time, 191 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 1: and even eight years it's really not very much time. 192 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: We got Supreme Court justices with lifetime tenure. We got 193 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 1: senators that are going to be in office for forty years, 194 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 1: eight years. Any one man, any one president, is automatically circumscribed. Trump, 195 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 1: if he is guilty of anything right now, is guilty 196 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: of trying to do too much simultaneously. And I just 197 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: think again, be careful in trying to attack someone who 198 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: is doing so much immense good right now. The top 199 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 1: attack of Democrats actually originated with Republicans. They're coming after 200 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 1: Trump over Epstein. Not because the Democrats have been right 201 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 1: on Epstein, God forbid. They set on the files for 202 00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: four years, they didn't release anything, they barely even mentioned it, 203 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 1: and now they're going to come after Trump, who just 204 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: got into office six months ago, over Epstein. Be very 205 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: very careful when you are playing into the hands of 206 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: the people that hate Trump. In the back of your mind, 207 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: be thinking that primary Democrat attack now on Trump is 208 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,480 Speaker 1: related to Epstein. Are their hands clean on this? Have 209 00:12:51,600 --> 00:12:57,400 Speaker 1: they actually done anything? All they're doing is using right 210 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: wing attacks on Trump to actually use and mobilize the 211 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 1: left against him. Again, I'm gonna take a bunch of 212 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: your calls, We're going to weigh in, But I just 213 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: want you to think about that the origination. 214 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:14,359 Speaker 2: Where did Russia Gate come from? It came from Trump. 215 00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 1: Can't actually have won. It's like Brady when he beat 216 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner. Before we knew how good Tom Brady was. 217 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: Now I understand some of you knew that in sixteen. 218 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,679 Speaker 1: Some of you had your eyes open in fifteen when 219 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: Trump came down the escalator. Other people came on board 220 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: different times. Some of you voted in Trump twenty some 221 00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: of you voted Trump twenty four in the first time. 222 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 1: I think most of you out there listening have come 223 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: to see his unique political skill and talents. 224 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 2: Again. 225 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:43,560 Speaker 1: I think he's the greatest Republican president since Reagan. And 226 00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 1: I think Trump, in his mind is making a run 227 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 1: for the ages. His aspiration is not to be the 228 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,640 Speaker 1: best since Reagan. I think he wants to be better 229 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 1: than Reagan. This guy's ambition is not, as we all know, 230 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,319 Speaker 1: to be good. It's to be the greatest ever. We'll 231 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: take your calls, just like Tom Brady, in my opinion, 232 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: is the greatest quarterback of all time. I want to 233 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: tell you trust and will look. It was just downstairs. 234 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: My boys are running around like crazy. It is still 235 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 1: summer break. I've got a fourteen year old, ten year 236 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 1: old at home. I got a seventeen year old no 237 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:22,720 Speaker 1: way at summer camp. Everything that I do buy and 238 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,080 Speaker 1: large on a day to day basis is about trying 239 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 1: to help make sure that they have a great future 240 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: life for them. I'm forty six years old. I hope 241 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: that I got forty years still to go. I hope 242 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: that I got fifty years still to go. I hope 243 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: that it is a very very long time in the 244 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 1: future before my family has to think anything about what 245 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: might happen to me. 246 00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 2: But who knows. 247 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: Hul Cogan, Malcolm Jamal Warner, Ozzy Osbourne, three icons all 248 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 1: lost their lives this week. Are you prepared if something 249 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:59,680 Speaker 1: awful happens in your life? Kids? Grandkids? They're fighting, they're squabbling. 250 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 1: What if if you weren't there to help rectify and 251 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 1: keep them from fighting about everything? What if you just 252 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: want them to know everything that you would want to 253 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,840 Speaker 1: happen after you die?

I took 260 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 1: care of it, even though hopefully I've still got decades 261 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 1: to go before I have to worry about any of 262 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: those implications. But if I get in a car and 263 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 1: I have an accident tomorrow, my family is set. They're 264 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 1: taken care of.

Uh what do you 287 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: do when the totally unexpected happens?

Marian, 289 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: South Carolina, what you got for us? 290 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:07,440 Speaker 3: Well, honey, I just had a quick thought and I thought, well, 291 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 3: I think the story on Russia is all about Hillary. 292 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 3: I think she's the key to the evil thread. The 293 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 3: reason is in nineteen ninety two, sixty minutes was on 294 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 3: Bill and Hillary were being interviewed. Really didn't know them. 295 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 3: He didn't get inaugurate, I think till ninety three. So 296 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 3: my daughter, who is seven years old, started screaming, turn 297 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,440 Speaker 3: the TV off, Turn the TV off. She said that 298 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 3: lady is scary and out of the miles of bay. 299 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:40,400 Speaker 3: To think that thirty three years ago, a seven year 300 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 3: old child saw the scary ladies who I believe is 301 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 3: quite an evil lady, and I think she's the key 302 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 3: to this evil. 303 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: I'll talk thank you for the call. I'll talk about 304 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: the Hillary angle here when I come back, because I 305 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 1: do think that is significant on Russiagate. In the meantime, 306 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,160 Speaker 1: cell phones meant to last a long time, not a lifetime, 307 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: though overtime battery'll fade.

Appreciate all 325 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,200 Speaker 1: of you for hanging out with us. Let me play 326 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,040 Speaker 1: this cut and then I'll take your calls. Cut thirty. 327 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 1: I think it's important to remember just how aggressive the 328 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: liies all were that were used against Trump. Here is 329 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders saying Russia may be blackmailing Trump. We need 330 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 1: Bucks Bernie impersonation, but I promise this is actually Bernie. 331 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 2: This has cut thirty. 332 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 4: Trump doesn't understand what Russia has done not only to 333 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 4: our elections, but to cyber attacks against all parts of 334 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 4: our infrastructure. Either he doesn't understand it, or perhaps he 335 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,359 Speaker 4: is being blackmailed Russia because they may have compromising information 336 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 4: about him. Or perhaps also you have a president who 337 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 4: really does have strong authoritarian tendencies, and maybe he admires 338 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,439 Speaker 4: the kind of government that Putin is running in Russia. 339 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 4: And I think all of that is a disgrace and 340 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 4: a disservice to the American people. And we have got 341 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 4: to make sure that Russia does not interfere not only 342 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 4: in our elections, but in other aspects. 343 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:55,639 Speaker 5: Of our lives. 344 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: Bernie took his honeymoon in Russia, the idea that he 345 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: would be Hey, maybe he admires Russia. 346 00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 2: This guy during the Cold War. 347 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: Got married and decided there's anywhere in the world I 348 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 1: could go. 349 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 2: I think I want to go to Russia. 350 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 1: And then he's going to accuse Trump of having a 351 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 1: soft spot for Russia. I just think it's so funny, 352 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: but it is important to remember maybe he's a Russian asset. 353 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: You know how aggressive and crazy that is to say 354 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: about the President of the United States. You know, they 355 00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: don't really have an answer for the question. Hey, this 356 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: is really simple question. If Trump were an asset of Russia, 357 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,399 Speaker 1: why did Vladimir putin wait until Joe Biden was in 358 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: office to invade Ukraine? If he had Trump by well, 359 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 1: I'll just say it the balls. If he had Trump 360 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: dead to rights because of some sort of compromising information, 361 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: why didn't he invade Ukraine when Trump was in office? 362 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:08,440 Speaker 1: Nobody can explain that. Why did he wait until Joe 363 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:10,880 Speaker 1: Biden was in office to invade Ukraine? 364 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 2: And here's the other thing. 365 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 1: Nobody's ever really explained this to me either, What would 366 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: Russia have on Trump? Then that is worse than what 367 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: the Democrats have said about Trump for the last decade. 368 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: You slept with a porn star while your wife had 369 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: a baby at home. Not a great thing to have 370 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 1: people say about you. Just gonna throw it out there. 371 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: You raped somebody at a dressing room in New York City. 372 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 2: Not something that I would want people to be saying 373 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: about me. 374 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 1: Is there really anything that Russia could have ever said 375 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: about Trump that was actually worse than what Democrats were 376 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 1: already saying about Trump? 377 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 2: That's the part. Why didn't he invade. 378 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: While he was there? Okay, they don't have an answer 379 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:08,800 Speaker 1: for that. What could be worse than what you're already 380 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:13,280 Speaker 1: saying about Trump? You're a racist Nazi who slept with 381 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 1: a porn star while your wife had a baby at home, 382 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: and also you raped a woman in a dressing room 383 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: in a New York City department store. I don't know 384 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: what else you could say that's worse. Oh, you slept 385 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:35,240 Speaker 1: with some random girl in Russia? Okay, Like, what did 386 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,119 Speaker 1: we think that Russia had on? Nobody can ever answer this. 387 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: What was so debilitating that Trump was so terrified of 388 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:49,040 Speaker 1: that would actually have been worse than what Democrats were 389 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:50,360 Speaker 1: already saying about him. 390 00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 2: I don't know about you. 391 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: But when somebody says, hey, you're a racist Nazi and 392 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 1: they attack you, who you slept with, use you have 393 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: sexual assault, all these other different things, what. 394 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 2: Else is left? 395 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: That's honestly the result of twenty twenty four. I knew 396 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: Democrats were in trouble when they started saying, oh, he's 397 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 1: a he's an oligarch, Oh he's a fascist. They were 398 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: having to go further down the awful things to say 399 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: about you, food chain because racist Hitler all that stuff 400 00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: wasn't working anymore, and they were panicking and they were 401 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: actually insulting him with less insulting things that they could 402 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 1: say about him. But again, what was this compromising information 403 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 1: that was worse than what Russia was than what the 404 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: Democrats were already saying? Never made me since why wouldn't 405 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: they have invaded at that point in time? Tommy and Michigan? 406 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 2: What you got for me? 407 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 5: Hey, you forgot one thing. Remember what Hilary put out there? 408 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 5: They claimed Donald Trump was given golden showers to Russian hookers. 409 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 6: Remember that? 410 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? 411 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 1: But I'm well totally, I mean, that was in the 412 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 1: Steel dossier. My point is, hold on My point is 413 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 1: even that is that worse than saying, hey, you slept 414 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: with a porn star while your wife was home with 415 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: a baby, or you raped somebody in a in a dressing. 416 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 2: Room like they all. 417 00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 1: When you go that way, at some point people are 418 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: just like, either you don't believe it, or you kind 419 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 1: of end up in a situation where you're like, there's 420 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 1: just so many accusations. Whatever opinion you have of Trump 421 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,919 Speaker 1: is already baked in. And I think that's the problem 422 00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: that Democrats have run into. And that's my point on 423 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:38,280 Speaker 1: the Russian compromising information. If somebody said, hey, Clayton, trust me, 424 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 1: there are people who say clay Travis is a racist, 425 00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 1: Nazi supporting, philandering, life beating, you know, child abusing, Like 426 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,200 Speaker 1: every awful thing that could be said about me, somebody 427 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 1: has said on the internet right at some point in time, 428 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: a fraction as often as they've said it about Trump. 429 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 1: But at some point in time you just have to say, well, 430 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:03,119 Speaker 1: if you're only attacking the guy for personal issues, what 431 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 1: are you so afraid of about the political arguments that 432 00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,520 Speaker 1: he's making. And I think that's where the American public 433 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: got I'm not saying Trump's the saint. He certainly isn't 434 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 1: He screwed up and made a lot of awful decisions 435 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: in his life, both personal private business, like every single 436 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,119 Speaker 1: person on the planet. But he is also right on 437 00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 1: a ton of political issues. And I think the American 438 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: public eventually says, well, if you're attacking Trump personally instead 439 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 1: of addressing the substance of the political arguments that he's making, 440 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 1: at some point in time, the American public is smart 441 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 1: enough to say, wait a minute, why can't they just 442 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 1: go toe to toe with him on the actual political issues. 443 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: Let's just presume that nobody is perfect, that everybody in 444 00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: politics is screwed up in their life, just like everybody 445 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: else in the whole world has screwed up at some 446 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 1: point in their life. And hey, the fact that they 447 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: can't actually debate them on the issues is a sign 448 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:57,600 Speaker 1: that they're not right on the issues. Sorry to cut 449 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 1: you off, what you got for us. The additionally thing, it's. 450 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,640 Speaker 5: Like, you know what, this whole this whole Russian collision, 451 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 5: it was defunked a year ago with Jake Capper on CNN. 452 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 5: He came out and said it was all a hoax, 453 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 5: the whole Russian you know, the Russian dotsia, the whole 454 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 5: It was all created by Hillary Clinton. Jake Capper from 455 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 5: CNN came out and said it was a hope. It 456 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 5: was debunked on CNN, and now the Democrats are trying 457 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 5: to bring out this Oh well, you know what, because 458 00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 5: they knew this was They're the masters at diversionary tectics. 459 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 5: They knew Trump was coming out with this thing against 460 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:38,760 Speaker 5: Obama and how they try to You know, Brennan and Komi, 461 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 5: those guys are going down. Obama's got presidential immunity, but 462 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 5: the other guys are probably going down, and they know this. 463 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 2: I think you're you're skipping in and out. We're losing 464 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:51,399 Speaker 2: a little bit of the audience. 465 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: I think that the Intelligence Agency Apparatus CIA, FBI, all 466 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: those guys, I think they're in more legal peril for 467 00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 1: show than Obama is. I think Obama's gonna skate because 468 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: he has presidential privilege. 469 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 2: Again. 470 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: Trump said that we played that audio for you earlier. 471 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 1: We've been telling you that all week. I don't want 472 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: to overpromise and under deliver to you guys, because I 473 00:27:12,359 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 1: trust all of you to be intelligent and an analyst 474 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 1: of all of the news that's out there, and I 475 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: think you should listen to people like me and Buck 476 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 1: and over time say hey, are they being honest with us? 477 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:29,080 Speaker 1: Are they analyzing the larger news arena and telling us 478 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: exactly what we think? Doesn't mean we're going to be perfect. 479 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: I thought we were going to get a red wave 480 00:27:33,359 --> 00:27:36,160 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty two. It's one hundred percent wrong. Didn't happen. 481 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 5: Ah. 482 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,439 Speaker 1: And by the way, I think that's the reason Obama 483 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: sorry that Biden got to stay in office. And I 484 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 1: think that's the reason we got the red wave in 485 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. But we were early on that, we 486 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: saw the wave building. That was one that I got 487 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 1: completely wrong. I had to come in and tell you guys, hey, 488 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,359 Speaker 1: that I was wrong on this. We got it in 489 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 1: twenty four, we were early on it. We didn't get 490 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: it in twenty two. Got it wrong. I'll own it. 491 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: Buck had to own it when he said, hey, they'll 492 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: never kick Biden to the curb. I ended up getting 493 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 1: that one right. One or the other of us going 494 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: to be right. Sometimes. Most of the time, I think 495 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: one of the other of us is going to be wrong. 496 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,919 Speaker 1: Sometimes rarely will we both be wrong. I think on 497 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: everything like Biden, was it his presidency, ted and Nebraska 498 00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: what you got for. 499 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 6: Us picking my call. I think your analysis of al 500 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 6: shot the Democrats were because of a neal fight winning 501 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:39,240 Speaker 6: is all true November. Once they knew everything changed and 502 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 6: they I mean, it wasn't benign. 503 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 2: They just hated him. 504 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 6: He was an existential threat from immigration in the whole 505 00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 6: nine yards they started with Sessions got him out of 506 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 6: the way so they could legally attack him flim. They 507 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 6: didn't want him in the Pentagon. With all of that, 508 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 6: it's not that they they tried to perpetrate this Russian hoax. 509 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 6: It's the fact they perpetrated the Russian hoax with the 510 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 6: deep state. His own party was part of it, the 511 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 6: media was part of it, the deep state, the Democrats. 512 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 6: This is the biggest scandal in the history of the 513 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 6: United States, and everyone involved in this has to go down. 514 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 6: I don't agree with the other caller. I think everyone's 515 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 6: going to skate on this because of statute of limitations 516 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 6: and everything else. But this is just over the top. 517 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 1: I appreciate the call it, I unfortunately think that it's 518 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: more likely they're going to skate than they're going to 519 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: be prosecuted. I do think this matter is in a 520 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: big way for the historical record, and I also think, look, 521 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: I went off a little bit yesterday. I also think 522 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:50,280 Speaker 1: we have to accept that intelligence agencies are very often 523 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,479 Speaker 1: intensely political, and I think one of the legacies of 524 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: the Trump era is going to be establishing just how 525 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: political our government is. 526 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 2: On a day to day basis. Everything is political, and 527 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 2: so this. 528 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: Idea, well, We're going to be completely balanced in intelligence 529 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 1: agencies or the Department of Justice or anywhere else. Sadly 530 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: that's not the case. I think Trump has brought it 531 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: back closer to balance, to evenness. But when you have 532 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: an entire agency that would vote eighty percent Democrat and 533 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 1: twenty percent Republican, it's impossible to have balance. And by 534 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 1: the way, I think this is true of all the 535 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: universities too. In order to have balance, you basically have 536 00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: to have half the people that believe one thing half 537 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 1: the people that believe the other thing. That is the 538 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 1: very essence of balance, and then you let those people 539 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: fight it out inside of your company or even better, 540 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: and this is what Google has finally started to do. 541 00:30:45,960 --> 00:30:49,400 Speaker 1: They just say, hey, work is not where politics should happen. 542 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 1: That's kind of where we were for most of the 543 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 1: eighties and the nineties and the early two thousands. I 544 00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: think we had reached this sort of grudging status quo 545 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:04,280 Speaker 1: and we weren't trying to influence politics on everything, and 546 00:31:04,320 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: then Trump got elected and broke everybody's brain. And I 547 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: mentioned as we went to break, we had to call 548 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 1: her that was on talking about how her daughter reacted 549 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,760 Speaker 1: to Hillary. I think it was LORII in South Carolina 550 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 1: that we had on there, and I said I would 551 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 1: mention Hillary. I think Hillary's brain was broken by the 552 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: loss in twenty sixteen, and I think she was like 553 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 1: Kurt Warner losing to Tom Brady before we realized how 554 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 1: good of a talent Brady was. The analogy that I 555 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: made that explains how all of Russia collusion, in my mind, 556 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: came to happen. They had to come up with a 557 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,959 Speaker 1: reason other than Trump's in eight talents why the result 558 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:43,479 Speaker 1: happened as it did, and I think they delegitimized and 559 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: de emphasized the talents of Trump. I think Hillary secretly 560 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 1: was super ecstatic when she saw Kamala get swamped in 561 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 1: twenty twenty four, because I think at that point in 562 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: time she even if she won't say it publicly, could 563 00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: start to think, hey, maybe I didn't completely screw up everything. 564 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 1: Maybe Trump's just a really good politician. And I think 565 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 1: when he swamped Kamala and he knocked Biden out of 566 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:12,480 Speaker 1: the race. I think she will never say it, but 567 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 1: I think Hillary got some peace for the trauma that 568 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 1: she felt from losing that race. I think it spiraled 569 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: her out of control. I think she had to look 570 00:32:21,320 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 1: at external factors. Whenever something bad happens, the first thing 571 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: that most people do is look for other people that 572 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,720 Speaker 1: are the cause of the bad thing happening. 573 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 2: This is just life. 574 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 1: If you just got divorced, it's very rare that the 575 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: first thought you have is, you know what, I completely 576 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 1: screwed that up. This is all on me. I should 577 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 1: have been way better. You may work through that eventually 578 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 1: and be like, boy, I wasn't a great husband. I 579 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 1: wasn't a great wife. If you're fighting with your kids, 580 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 1: it's very rare that you're like, hey, maybe I wasn't 581 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: as good of a parent. Maybe I've screwed some of 582 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: this relationship up. Self analysis is really hard, and even 583 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: tougher than that is recognizing that you may well have 584 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:08,840 Speaker 1: caused most of the problems that externally surround you. Noways say, 585 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,719 Speaker 1: I think the phrase energy vampire is real. But if 586 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,120 Speaker 1: you're a person and you're like boy, everybody around me 587 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 1: is a jerk and everything is always screwed up, and 588 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 1: why you ever think maybe it's you? This is what 589 00:33:23,640 --> 00:33:26,400 Speaker 1: I always say. Football coaches are great on this. There's 590 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: a phrase that I also like. I like energy vampire. 591 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,239 Speaker 1: You're sucking all the energy out of other people. I 592 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: also love the phrase that coaches share with me. Sometimes 593 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 1: they say, you know, being a coach is really interesting. 594 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 2: College. 595 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: Same thing in the draft, but college in particular phrases 596 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 1: we recruit our problems. Do you ever think about how 597 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 1: powerful that phrase is? Most of life you create and 598 00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 1: recruit the own problems that you will face, and once 599 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:58,560 Speaker 1: you take ownership of that. And I don't think Hillary 600 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: could take ownership of her loss. Oh it's Russia, Oh 601 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: it's they cheated. Until you can look at internally and say, boy, 602 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:08,719 Speaker 1: I screwed that up. 603 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 2: That's on me, my bad. 604 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 1: You can't get over whatever happened to you because there's 605 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: always an external excuse. There's always someone else to blame. 606 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 1: In all of life. I think Hillary lost in sixteen, 607 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,759 Speaker 1: and I think she couldn't comprehend that she could have 608 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 1: lost to Trump. And I think when Trump kicked Kamala's 609 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,359 Speaker 1: ass and knocked Joe Biden out of office, I think 610 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 1: Hillary was secretly smiling and loving all of it, because 611 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:37,319 Speaker 1: in her mind she maybe started to recognize, Hey, I 612 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 1: lost to a thoroughbred political talent in twenty sixteen. That stinks, 613 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: but it wasn't just that I failed. It's that Trump's 614 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:47,160 Speaker 1: really good. And I bet if you talked to Kurt 615 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:49,120 Speaker 1: Warner now, I bet he felt really bad about losing 616 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,399 Speaker 1: that first Super Bowl to Tom Brady. I bet when 617 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 1: he saw Tom Brady win six more Super Bowls, he 618 00:34:53,640 --> 00:34:56,480 Speaker 1: was like, Dude, this guy's legit. I just lost to 619 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: the goat. I didn't play well, we could have done better, 620 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,760 Speaker 1: but there's no no harm in losing to somebody who's 621 00:35:01,800 --> 00:35:05,200 Speaker 1: excellent in all of life. And I think Hillary's come 622 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,680 Speaker 1: to grips with that a little bit. Maybe not publicly, 623 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 1: but I bet she has privately.
