1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: Let's check in on President Trump here for a second 2 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,720 Speaker 1: and see how he's doing, how he's feeling. He spoke 3 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: before court today. Court back in session on this Friday. 4 00:00:13,760 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 1: They have Wednesdays off during this absurd trial. But here 5 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: he is probably not surprising for any of you to 6 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,960 Speaker 1: hear that he is unimpressed by the Biden numbers. 7 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:26,520 Speaker 2: This is five. 8 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:31,320 Speaker 3: The job numbers just came out and they're horrm and 9 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 3: they're very and I say that not happily. They say 10 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,519 Speaker 3: that very unhappily. But the numbers are horrible. It's just 11 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 3: these people are destroying our country. Is another sign of it. 12 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 3: So as you probably know before I did, the job 13 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 3: numbers came out. 14 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,000 Speaker 2: There, really really low, really. 15 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 3: Man our economy's band and now it's starting to show. 16 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 3: So you'll see it'll only get worse. It'll only get worse. 17 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 3: We're only going one way with the so called leadership. 18 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 4: There is. 19 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: I think if the buying economy, if it even just 20 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 1: continues in this stall that it feels like it's in 21 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: right now, clay another headwind that they just can't afford 22 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: right now going into the election. I think it'll affect 23 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: Democrats up and down the ballot across the board. But 24 00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 1: this was interesting as well. We've discussed this a bit. 25 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 1: Andy McCarthy our buddy. Well, let's get Andy on next 26 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,720 Speaker 1: week to address some of these things. Talk to him, 27 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 1: click and talk some smack over BA. Isn't baseball happening now? 28 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,119 Speaker 1: Baseball season is underway. Also, I need to have Andy 29 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: tell me. Remember they still want me arrested for jury tampering, 30 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 1: although that seems to have died down. Who the best 31 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 1: criminal defense attorney I should go ahead and retain in 32 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 1: New York to make sure that that I can be 33 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: defended is I haven't. 34 00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,959 Speaker 2: Forgotten about that yet. I thought they had let that go. 35 00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 2: They're still bothering you. 36 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 5: We came now and then I'm still getting still getting 37 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 5: messages letting me know that I'm going to be headed 38 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 5: to Rikers Island. Then I should prepare to spend a 39 00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 5: lot of time in prison. I know some MYPD guys, Well, 40 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 5: we'll come visit you. 41 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 2: It'll be all right. So here is what Karthy though. 42 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: This is really interesting because it does raise, first of all, 43 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: the ultimate question here is what's the point of all 44 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:09,399 Speaker 1: these trials if there's really going to be no punishment 45 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: for Trump? Even if he's convicted, if it is just 46 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 1: for politics, I don't think anybody cares if he gets 47 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: convicted in need, we've thought that all along. The conviction 48 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,679 Speaker 1: alone in New York is almost certainly not going to 49 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: do anything. And so if they're not going to put 50 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,359 Speaker 1: him in jail and nothing's really going to happen to him, 51 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: what are they even doing? But on the gag order 52 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: issue as well, remember they're trying to say Trump can't 53 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: speak about people involved in the trial. They can speak 54 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: about him somehow outside the trial, but he can't speak 55 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: about them. 56 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: Andy here arguing. 57 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 1: That basically the judge is too shook, as they would say, 58 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: too scared to put Trump in jail for violating the 59 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: gag order. This is seven play it. 60 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 4: He's fighting this politic The trial is one thing. The 61 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 4: gag order stuff is all about the politics of the campaign. 62 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 4: And I must say I think that Judge march On 63 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 4: understands that putting Trump in jail, which he can do 64 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 4: for up to thirty days, for any violation of the 65 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 4: gag order, would be a catastrophe politically for Democrats. So 66 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 4: he's finding him a thousand dollars every time. There's no 67 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 4: doubt that there are violations of the gag order. I 68 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 4: think the gag order is unconstitutional, but that ships sailed. 69 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 4: If I were Trump, I'd be tempted to just give 70 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 4: Judge march On a check for about ten thousand dollars 71 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,839 Speaker 4: every Monday and say this is for this week's violations 72 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 4: and just go do what he's going to do, because 73 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 4: I don't think he'll put him in jail. 74 00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 2: Oh man, can you assuming that true? 75 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 5: I just think it would be funny if Trump came 76 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 5: to the courthouse with one of those big oversized checks, 77 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 5: you know, like you get when you win a sweepstakes, 78 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 5: and he just announced, Hey, I want everybody to know 79 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 5: I think this gag order is unconstitutional, but nothing is 80 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 5: going to stop me from saying what I need to 81 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 5: say to win this election. And therefore I am going 82 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 5: to go ahead in pre deposit fines and here is 83 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 5: and like written on it, Judge merchants. 84 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 6: A big beautiful check because he's a I mean, he's 85 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 6: a terrible judge, unfair violating my constitutional rights. So we 86 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 6: brought him ten thousand dollars, ten thousand dollars per week. 87 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,800 Speaker 5: There you go, just go ahead and get the tab started. Yeah, 88 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:14,640 Speaker 5: you just take it off my tab. I'm gonna go 89 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 5: ahead and give you twenty K because you're finding me nine. 90 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: But I know there's gonna be another ten or eleven coming. 91 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 5: I just want you to have it so you can 92 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 5: just go take it out of the kiddy whenever you 93 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,239 Speaker 5: need it. That would be a pretty remarkable move by Trump. 94 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 5: And I think what Andy McCarthy is hitting on is 95 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,640 Speaker 5: something we've said on this show for some time. And 96 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 5: the analogy I made a lot of you actually knew 97 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 5: what I was talking about. Some of you thought I 98 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 5: was crazy. 99 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 2: My prayer rabbit analogy, Yeah, great analogy. Trump throwing in 100 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:40,640 Speaker 2: the patch. 101 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 5: Trump wants to get thrown in the Brier patch, and 102 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,919 Speaker 5: yet he's out there saying, oh, please, don't throw me 103 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 5: into the Brier patch. Preasee don't and then they throw 104 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 5: him in there. Rabbits love being in the briar patch. 105 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 5: Trump would benefit tremendously from I think the video of 106 00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,559 Speaker 5: him being put in Riker's Island or wherever the jail 107 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 5: for purposes of just saying what he needs to say 108 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 5: he believes. 109 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 2: To win a political campaign. 110 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: What do you think of the chances at some point 111 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: in the weeks ahead when the judge is announcing in 112 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,839 Speaker 1: another violation the gag where Trump just says. 113 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 2: Put it on my tab, the amazing line. 114 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 1: I think he should go for it. I think you 115 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: should there. It would be a tremendous response to say 116 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:21,279 Speaker 1: put it on his tab. 117 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 5: And look, we had Mark Simon on last week Friday, 118 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 5: a week ago, and he said that he thought Trump 119 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 5: could win New York. 120 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 2: Boldest prediction. 121 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 5: I think that we've had on the show in some time, 122 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,520 Speaker 5: Marx Simone knows New York, as you have said, Monster 123 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 5: Audience on WR leading into us. When I watched Trump 124 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:45,599 Speaker 5: deliver the pizzas to the fireman yesterday after being in 125 00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 5: the court all day, I couldn't help but think how 126 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 5: incredibly skilled Trump is at moments like that. He's done 127 00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 5: it now with the construction crew in New York City. 128 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 5: He did it when he went to the Harlem. Butdega, 129 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 5: they're gonna set up I think some sort of large 130 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 5: rally in New York City at some time. I would 131 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,920 Speaker 5: imagine he'll have an interaction with New York policeman at 132 00:06:07,920 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 5: some point as well, where he goes and delivers pizza 133 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 5: to them. But that moment with the fireman, it would 134 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 5: be the ultimate own goal, the ultimate self inflicted wound. 135 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 5: If by putting him on trial in New York City, 136 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:29,840 Speaker 5: suddenly Trump is able to put New York even in 137 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,559 Speaker 5: the van, even in the possibility of a play. 138 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 2: Remember again we talked about emails to spend money. That's right. 139 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: If he makes them even spend money in New York 140 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: at all or any time in New York, it's a win. 141 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: This is what Democrats always try to do with Texas, right. 142 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 1: They just use it as right now to try to 143 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: expand expand the battlefield, to expand the battle space a 144 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 1: little bit. 145 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 2: I just say the best way. 146 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: You know, we talk a lot about the breaking of 147 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: precedent and and the setting of precedent. That is going 148 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 1: to have bad implications, I think politically for the country 149 00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: long after Trump is gone from the political scene. And 150 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: I think the only one of the only ways that 151 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: you can counteract that would be the kind of repudiation 152 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: politically that you'd get if Donald Trump won New York 153 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: after being tried there, and maybe even I don't know, 154 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 1: I don't think they're gonna put him in jail even 155 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: for a day. But you know that is I'm not 156 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: saying it's going to happen. But that's the way that 157 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: you set a different kind of president, which is the 158 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: American people see through this kind of thing for what 159 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: it is, and they will punish you at the ballot box. 160 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: All there really is at this point. None of the 161 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:49,240 Speaker 1: people that are are the nemeses of Trump in this 162 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,480 Speaker 1: None of the people that are abusing the law that 163 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: are doing all they're doing this constant game of oh, 164 00:07:56,760 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: we're protecting institutions by basically subverting institutions and going after 165 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: Trump Clay. They're not going to be punished. I don't 166 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: think anybody should be under it, be under any belief 167 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: that there's going to be prosecutors fired and bad things 168 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 1: are gonna happen to them. No, nothing's gonna happen to them. 169 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: The only way that there's some measure of justice here 170 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: is you get a big enough win for Trump in 171 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: enough places and the Republicans that Democrats will think twice 172 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: about doing this in the future. I can assure you 173 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: if Joe Biden wins, this then becomes a part of 174 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: the playbook what they're doing right now, they will do 175 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: it to other Republicans definitely. 176 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 5: And that's why I would say if you're listening to 177 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 5: us and you're on the fence, I understand a lot 178 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 5: of people don't like Trump or Biden, and I bet 179 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 5: there's not an insubstantial number of you listening to us 180 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 5: right now. You were to say atist people, you were 181 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 5: nicky Haley people, maybe you're RFK junior people because you 182 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 5: just really don't like Trump and you don't like Biden. 183 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 5: That's not in substantial way. The quarter, probably thirty percent 184 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 5: of the United States, I would say, is in that 185 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 5: camp right now not a big fan of either guy. 186 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 5: If you are making a decision between the two. The 187 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 5: idea of putting your chief political opponent in prison for 188 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 5: the rest of his life if Democrats win, will become 189 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 5: a feature of campaign playbooks in the future. Trump will 190 00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 5: not be the last person to face this kind of 191 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 5: lawfair if he wins. And by the way, I think 192 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 5: the idea of doing this is awful, regardless of whether 193 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 5: Democrats or Republicans were doing it. 194 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 2: I think it's an awful precedent. 195 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 5: If Trump wins, I think there'll be a lot of 196 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 5: people saying Biden blew it, Democrats blew it because they 197 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 5: won't give Trump credit, and a lot of them will 198 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 5: look at this law fair and they'll say it failed. 199 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 5: Oh and I think they'll also say, yeah. 200 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: I was gonna say. 201 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: I think they're gonna go they're not going to accept 202 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: that he won, no way, Oh well, they're He'll say, 203 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: is Russia China collusion. 204 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,360 Speaker 2: They'll they'll come up with a. 205 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 5: That's why it really needs to be that. That's why, honestly, 206 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 5: I would it marks some He's a big enough. 207 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: Margin that they have to shut right. But if it's tight, 208 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: if it's close, they're gonna say, and they're gonna say, well, 209 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 1: look what Trump said in twenty twenty, and we're gonna say, 210 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,559 Speaker 1: well look what you lunatics did in twenty sixteen with 211 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: Russia collusion, and you know, and the cycle continues. They 212 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: will not accept it, and they will not certify. If 213 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: Democrats can, will they will try to block certification or 214 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: play games around certification in the House process too, just 215 00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 1: everything they can do so they can do the same 216 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: chant they did in twenty sixteen when he beat Hillary, 217 00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 1: which was not my president. That was remember that was 218 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 1: the whole They lived in this alternative universe where Trump 219 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: wasn't the president, but he was. 220 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 5: I mean, I'll say this too. The idea that there 221 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 5: are only seven states that both Democrats and Republicans think 222 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 5: are in play given this election, the fact that there 223 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 5: are forty three states twenty some odd whatever the math is, 224 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 5: eighteen that Joe Biden's got locked up. Biden is I 225 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 5: think the worst candidate that Democrats have put forward in 226 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 5: our lifetime as his nominee. 227 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 2: I really do. 228 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 5: I mean, And you could say, even in twenty at 229 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 5: least the campaign they ran, I could understand why people 230 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 5: would vote for Biden. Now that you've seen four years 231 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 5: of what his stewardship of the country is and the 232 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 5: mental and physical frailty on top of that that compounds 233 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 5: his failure. I don't understand how anyone that is rational 234 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 5: could vote for Joe Biden. I really don't. And the 235 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 5: fact that he's got nineteen or whatever it is, eighteen 236 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 5: states that are not even in competition, I mean, I 237 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 5: think it's a really bad sign. Compared to let's say 238 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 5: nineteen eighty four, when people could look at Reagan, they 239 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,480 Speaker 5: judged him for four years and you had an absolute landslide. 240 00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 5: The fact that we could never have a landslide like 241 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 5: that again, I think is a testament to how few 242 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 5: people are actually paying attention. 243 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 1: Sadly, take some of your calls here coming up and 244 00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: we'll get into a big third hour as well. John 245 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 1: Rich will be joining us right Clay. You know John So, 246 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: I know John Well. I was just at his house 247 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: a couple of Fridays ago. He was throwing a big 248 00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 1: fundraiser for Marsha Blackburn. He played a concert there. He 249 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 1: is a patriot, awesome dude, friend of mine. We had 250 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 1: him on the big noon kickoff show here this past fall. 251 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: As the musical verse, I bet he respects flute players. 252 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: Just saying a good question. Just say it's a good question. 253 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 5: Which eight hundred serment player does he have the least 254 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 5: respect for as an accomplished musician. That would be a 255 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:22,959 Speaker 5: great question. 256 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 1: Eight hund two two eighth two of most phone lines 257 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: you know. Imagine going to work every day knowing you're 258 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,200 Speaker 1: likely to save the life of an unborn child. But 259 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,480 Speaker 1: that's what happens at the Preborn Clinics. Each day they 260 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: saved the lives of two hundred unborn babies. Last year 261 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: that number exceeded fifty eight thousand tiny babies saved. This 262 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 1: is the work that Preborn has been doing for eighteen 263 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,160 Speaker 1: years now. When a distressed mother comes to preborn, she's 264 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: welcomed with open arms and has offered a free ultrasound 265 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: to hear and see the precious life inside of her. 266 00:12:55,360 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: So often she chooses life wants that moment. What happens 267 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 1: when she sees on the ultrasound a tiny baby inside 268 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: of her This Mother's Day, You can help bring life 269 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: to a mom in need and an at risk baby. 270 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: An ultrasound is only twenty eight dollars. Five ultrasounds would 271 00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: be one hundred and forty dollars. If it's a donation 272 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: that you can make, it is so needed right now. 273 00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 1: Look at the war they are waging against life. Look 274 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: at what is arrayed against a culture of life in 275 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 1: this country with planned parenthood and all the funding going 276 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,720 Speaker 1: into abortion and all the media pushing for it. There 277 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 1: are organizations out there that are lighting a candle in 278 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: the darkness and that are fighting for life. Preborn is 279 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: at the forefront. They rely on donations from you, the 280 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: pro life community. Again, if you have the means, consider 281 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 1: a tax deductible donation. Twenty eight dollars would be one 282 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 1: ultrasound one hundred and forty dollars five ultrasounds. You can 283 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: at forty one thousand dollars or five thousand dollars a 284 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 1: leadership gift. You'd save that many more baby lives. 285 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: You can do it. I know you can. 286 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: Whatever you can donate, please make it, make it happen today. 287 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: Using your cell phone dial pound two fifty say the 288 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 1: keyword baby.

Thanks for taking the time. 303 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,760 Speaker 2: So let's just start with it. 304 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 9: What is uh, what's pushing you to try to push 305 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 9: this guy test her aside and become the next senator 306 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 9: from the great state of Montana. 307 00:15:18,600 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 8: Well, to be honest, I'd rather be doing something else. 308 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 8: You know, I got a great business, I've got four 309 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 8: young kids, and you know, we live out in our 310 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 8: farm and ranch in Montana. So I'd love to love 311 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 8: to stay here and not have to waste my time 312 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 8: in the swamp. But the reality is America's at a crossroads. 313 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 8: And in summer twenty twenty one, you know, I watched 314 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 8: Cobble fall and the most disgraceful, despicable, shameful, you know, 315 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 8: display of American idiocy in a generation. And you know 316 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 8: I fought there. My wife fought there. She was a 317 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,960 Speaker 8: Marine Corps officer. You know, her brothers were in the military. 318 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 8: So almost all of our best friends, you know, we 319 00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 8: went to the Naval Academy. We're in the service, served there. 320 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,880 Speaker 8: I lost a lot of friends there. I was wounded there. 321 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 8: I mean, the list goes on. I mean the amount 322 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,240 Speaker 8: of sacrifice that a very small sector of our population made, 323 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 8: as you well know, one percent joined and went. You know, 324 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 8: most of America was never affected by the war. So 325 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 8: those of us who went again and again and again 326 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 8: and had deep relationships there, were so disgusted to see 327 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 8: the way in which Joe Biden his Lackey's dishonored all 328 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 8: of our sacrifice and made a fool of our country 329 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,000 Speaker 8: at the end of our nation's longest war. And you know, 330 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 8: I worked so hard to get friends and allies, interpreters 331 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 8: out of there alive, while our government did nothing. So, 332 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 8: you know, that experience really woke me up to the 333 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 8: fact that, you know, if good people don't get involved 334 00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 8: in government, if good people don't get involved and try 335 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 8: to be part of the solution, we're never going to 336 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 8: get this country back. So that's why I'm doing it. 337 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 8: That's why I'm here, and let's get to work. 338 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 2: We're talking to Tim Shehe. 339 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,440 Speaker 5: He is the Republican nominee in Montana getting ready to 340 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 5: take on John Tester. For people out there listening in 341 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 5: Montana and certainly around the nation who are paying attention 342 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:54,040 Speaker 5: to what could be a race that would flip control 343 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 5: of the Senate. John Tester has gotten by the past 344 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 5: several cycles by claiming that he's just kind of a 345 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 5: oderate middle of the road guy, old Montana farmer who 346 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 5: just tries to make common sense decisions. The data doesn't 347 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:10,200 Speaker 5: actually support that he does that for people who might 348 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,120 Speaker 5: have bought that argument. Now that you have dove into 349 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 5: this and you are running, what does John Tester actually 350 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 5: do in office as opposed to what he says he's 351 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:20,159 Speaker 5: going to do? 352 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 8: Well again, I mean it's you know, Tester has has 353 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 8: two axe he plays, you know, when he's in DC. 354 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 8: He's a loyal foot soldier for Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden, 355 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 8: you know, and then as soon as he comes back 356 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 8: to Montana, he throws on a Carhart jacket and walks 357 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 8: around and says, you know, he's working with Republicans to 358 00:17:36,800 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 8: secure the border. The reality is, you know, he's de 359 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 8: rated by the NRA one hundred percent planned parenthood. He's 360 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 8: you know, ninety plus percent voting record with Joe Biden. Actually, 361 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:48,640 Speaker 8: I think it's more during this term. I think he's 362 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 8: like ninety five or ninety six percent, you know, this term. 363 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 8: You know, he's voting. He voted against the Lake and 364 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 8: Riley Act, voted to let boys play girl sports, has 365 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 8: voted to continue funding illegal umbergrant fly all over this country, 366 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 8: and you know he's a loyal footsoldier for the left. 367 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 8: So he plays the game in Montana, and you know 368 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 8: he's been able to survive as you said, several terms. 369 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 8: You know, he's part of the Lucky Canader Club six, twelve, 370 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 8: and eighteen, all strong Blue years, and you know Chuck 371 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,800 Speaker 8: Schumer and Harry before him. You know, they dump tremendous 372 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 8: resources into the state. They literally buy this Senate seat 373 00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 8: every cycle because they know John Tesser can't win without 374 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 8: a hundred million dollars of dark money two in a 375 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,399 Speaker 8: million dollars of dark money pouring into the state and 376 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 8: protecting him. And then finally, the last thing they do 377 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 8: is they have one tactic every election, and that's outright 378 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,680 Speaker 8: character assassination and smear at tactics on the Republican opponent. 379 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 8: They can never run on the issues of Montana because 380 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 8: he loses on the issues all the way down the ballot. 381 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 8: So instead they just savage the opponent with completely discussing 382 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 8: personal attacks. And that's what they're doing now. But the 383 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 8: polls are showing it's not working. 384 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 1: Speaking to Tim Shee, he is running up in Montana 385 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: for a Senate seat, and Tim you mentioned your opponent 386 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 1: playing make belief. When it comes to wanting to secure 387 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: the border, what's your position on the border. You might 388 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: have heard Trump, I think it was just two days 389 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 1: ago in Michigan saying there's going to be major deportations 390 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 1: if he wins a whole range of things. The border 391 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,679 Speaker 1: in some polls is the number one or number two issue, 392 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: depends on which polster you believe most. It's certainly top 393 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 1: of mind. What is your position when it comes to 394 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: the crisis we have now of an open border, illegals 395 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 1: pouring in by the millions. What should be done? 396 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 8: My position on everything, and this issue is no difference, 397 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:38,840 Speaker 8: is common sense. No other country in the world, let's happen. 398 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 8: What's happening to us right now? No one else in 399 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 8: the world, no other country says hey, millions of people 400 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 8: come in here, some of them probably good people, of course, 401 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 8: a lot of them very bad people coming here, bringing fentanyl, 402 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,879 Speaker 8: you know, bringing their gang ties, you know, murdering people, 403 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 8: literally murdering people and getting away with it. We saw 404 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:57,879 Speaker 8: those kids in New York City, you know, beating cops 405 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 8: in the street and the next day they're free. Let go. Meanwhile, 406 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 8: we're arresting presidents and putting them in trial. We have 407 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 8: the resources for that, but we don't have the resources 408 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 8: to prosecute criminal illegal aliens here murdering Americans. It's insane. 409 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 8: So my policy is very simple that border needs to 410 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 8: be airtight tomorrow. There's no excuse. We need to stop 411 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 8: incentivizing people to come here. And how are we incentivizing. 412 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 8: We're telling them when you come here, you're going to 413 00:20:21,160 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 8: get free closed, free lodging, free food, free air, transportation 414 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 8: around the country to a city of your choosing, and 415 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 8: there's no consequences. And you know, we as a country 416 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 8: have to get back to rewarding good behavior and punishing 417 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 8: bad behavior. That's what common sense is. If you break 418 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 8: the law, you go to jail. If you're a squatter 419 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 8: in someone's home, you don't arrest the homeowner, you arrest 420 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 8: the squatter. And across the board where you know, up 421 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 8: is down and down is upright, Now, boys are girls 422 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 8: and girls are boys. It's insanity and the border is 423 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 8: no different. We have to lock it down. I'm prolommigration. 424 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 8: I want people to come to this country the right way. 425 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 8: I've brought people to this country the right way to 426 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 8: work for my companies. But that's a big difference from 427 00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 8: bringing people here the right way to have people pour 428 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 8: into this country who don't want what's right for our 429 00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:04,960 Speaker 8: country by the millions. It's ridiculous. 430 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:06,680 Speaker 2: Tim Sheehey with us right now. 431 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 5: He's running for Senate in Montana, trying to flip control 432 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 5: of the chamber back as his seat is one of 433 00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 5: the top targets of both sides. Frankly in terms of 434 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 5: the battle for who's going to control of the Senate. 435 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 5: I don't know if you know the numbers yet, but 436 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 5: I imagine that the amount of money raised in a Montana 437 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 5: Senate race is going to be ninety ninety five percent 438 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 5: out of state, and that people in Montana are just 439 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 5: going to be flooded and inundated with the amount of 440 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 5: money that's being spent. How are you doing in terms 441 00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 5: of raising money from actual Montanas and how much of 442 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 5: the money that you're going to have to fight against 443 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 5: from John Tester is going to be flooding in from elsewhere. 444 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 5: And for people out there who are listening and want 445 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 5: to support you, how can they do it? But I'm 446 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 5: just kind of curious. I mean, this is going to 447 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 5: be one of the most expensive Senate races. I would 448 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 5: imagine anywhere in the country, this will be. 449 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 8: The most expensive race in American history per vote, of 450 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 8: any race, the most will defensive race. It's an American 451 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 8: history on a per boat basis, which is ridiculous. It's embarrassing. 452 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 8: You know, we need to have campaign finance perform, We 453 00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 8: need to fix this crap. But that's not gonna happen 454 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,119 Speaker 8: before November. So in the meantime, tenfriendt dot com. You know, 455 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 8: folks can learn about me and about the race. You know, yeah, 456 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 8: we're getting out spend. I mean, test is raising you know, 457 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 8: sometimes eight million dollars a quarter. You know, every quarter. 458 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 8: We're hoping to punch through two maybe three if we're lucky, 459 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 8: and you know, we're we're doing grassroots, hitting the whole state, 460 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 8: every VFW hall, every rodeo. But you're absolutely right, I 461 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,560 Speaker 8: mean it is we're getting not raised three to one, 462 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 8: four to one, five to one, and outspent. I mean 463 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 8: there's a period of time there was million dollars a 464 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:38,439 Speaker 8: week of just peer savage attack ads on me, you know, 465 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,479 Speaker 8: nothing even talking about what Tester's doing, just made up 466 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,440 Speaker 8: crap about me. My family are a tradable worker businesses, 467 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:47,199 Speaker 8: my military record, and that's what they spend their money on. 468 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 8: The money goes to do one thing, assault me and 469 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 8: my family and everything we've done. My wife and I 470 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 8: both serve this country in combat. I was wounded in combat. 471 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 8: We've created hundreds of jobs. But of course they're turning 472 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 8: all that into evil. And what I've challenged Ester is, hey, 473 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 8: why don't we just have a race about the issues, man, 474 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 8: Why don't we just talk about the border and gas 475 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 8: prices and foreign policy and inflation. Instead, all he wants 476 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 8: to do is make up lies about us. But that's 477 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 8: where the money is going. We're getting outspent, you know 478 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,479 Speaker 8: again picked your week two to one, three to one, 479 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 8: four to one, five to one. But we're getting crushed. 480 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:20,119 Speaker 8: But we're winning in the polls. The last poll that 481 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,800 Speaker 8: came out, we're forty eight to forty five. So the 482 00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:25,879 Speaker 8: more money they spend, the more people are realizing that 483 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 8: sending John Tester back for a fourth term to sell 484 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,959 Speaker 8: out America for another six years is not the right answer. 485 00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 2: You're actually favored. 486 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 5: I don't know if you pay attention to the polymarket, 487 00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 5: offshore markets for people out there who are interested in 488 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:40,640 Speaker 5: investing your favored to win this race right now, despite 489 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,840 Speaker 5: what they're spending on against you. You said something pretty 490 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 5: extraordinary there that per vote, this is going to be 491 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 5: the most expensive race that has ever happened in the 492 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 5: history of the United States. What kind of cost per 493 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 5: voter are we looking at? What is this race going 494 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 5: to cost? 495 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 8: Well, you know, we got about seven hundred thousand. I mean, 496 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 8: you got a million ish residents in Montana, you know, 497 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 8: typical voter turnout, we'll get six hundred thousand, seven hundred thousand. Obviously, 498 00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 8: we're trying to drive more voter turnout because we know 499 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 8: that the people in Montana don't want boys and girls 500 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,440 Speaker 8: locker rooms, they don't want open borders, they don't want 501 00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 8: six dollars diesel. So we know that the people support us. 502 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 8: We just got to get them to the polls and 503 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 8: please everybody listening. You know, I assume you're conservative. You're listening. 504 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 8: You know we're getting beat coast to coast ten on 505 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 8: voter turnout by the Democrats. You know, we all want 506 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 8: I want in person voter ID one hundred percent, but 507 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 8: guess what, that's not the law of the land this year. 508 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,520 Speaker 8: We need to make sure Republicans, get out and vote early, 509 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,040 Speaker 8: vote by mail, vote, absentee vote, DA, whatever it is. 510 00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,800 Speaker 8: Just make sure you actually vote because we're getting crushed 511 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 8: on turnout. And in Montana they're saying this race could 512 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:40,960 Speaker 8: be two hundred and fifty to three hundred million for 513 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 8: six to seven hundred thousand voters. Oh that's crazy. Those 514 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 8: are crazy numbers. Exactly, It's insane. But you know that's 515 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 8: where we're at. And you know we're not going to 516 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 8: beat them on the money side, we know that, but 517 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 8: we got to have enough to fight back. You know, 518 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 8: I'm not going to be more more Ammo, but I 519 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 8: got to be able to fight back. 520 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,320 Speaker 1: Timmy, you got a big chunk of of You know, 521 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: it's funny because I think to people who haven't spent 522 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: a lot of time in Montana and don't know the 523 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: state particularly, well, it's republic It's a Republican state, right 524 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 1: if you look at the voting demographics and party registration. 525 00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,359 Speaker 1: But there's a big chunk of independents who can swing 526 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 1: it one way or the other. Right, is that the 527 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: breakdown in Montana. I remember someone telling me, you know, 528 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: Bozeman's obviously very blue. Couple of other little blue pieces 529 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 1: of the state, then the rest of the state's very red. 530 00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: Just give us a sense of how that all comes 531 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 1: together and how independence you know, view this race and 532 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: why you think you're able to get more of them. 533 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 8: Yeah. No, thank you for asking that, because you're absolutely right. 534 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 8: There's an oversimplification of what people think Montana is politically. 535 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 8: You know, they say, well, they're a big square, empty 536 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 8: western state, so they must be deep red. And the 537 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 8: fact is it's far more complex than that. I mean, yes, 538 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 8: Trump won the state by twenty points, you know, seventeen points, 539 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 8: you know, landslide the state. But the reality is just 540 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 8: nine years ago here in Montana, I get a seven 541 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 8: out of eight state wide elected off is we're Democrats 542 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,679 Speaker 8: and today eight of nine are Republicans, and that just 543 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 8: shows the shift the state has not changed. What's changed 544 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 8: is the Democrat Party has left the state. You know, 545 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 8: the Democrats in Montana. Of course, yes, you have your 546 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 8: you know, pro Hamas Palestinian lefty loonies on the college campuses. 547 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 8: But the traditional Montana Democrats were union, they were labor, 548 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,120 Speaker 8: they were you know, they were back when you could 549 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 8: still have a Democrat that was pro gun, pro cop 550 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 8: pro border pro life democrat, you know, that doesn't really 551 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:30,120 Speaker 8: exist anymore. And and those people in Montana have said, man, 552 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 8: this part of that used to support my grandfather's mining union, 553 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 8: pipe fitters union. You know, like they're not they're not 554 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 8: they're not standing up for the white working class, blue 555 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 8: collar guy anymore. You know, they're selling us out. And 556 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 8: so that's been the big shift. And and you know 557 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 8: all the other common misconceptions folks coming into the state, 558 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 8: especially during COVID, you know, they see the so yellowstone, 559 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 8: they're like, oh, I everyone's a liberal Californian parachuting into 560 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 8: Montana making it blue. And that's actually incorrect. Most of 561 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 8: the people coming here are political refugees fleeing Portland, Seattle, Sacramento, 562 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 8: San Francisco, La, saying I'm getting away from this craziness. 563 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:09,159 Speaker 8: I'm getting away from you know, homelessness and crime and 564 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 8: crazy taxes, and I'm going to move to a state 565 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 8: where I'm going to be free. And they're bringing those 566 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 8: values here. And that's another reason why why we're seeing 567 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,680 Speaker 8: the states solidify. Read So there is that there is 568 00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 8: an independent swing, and I wouldn't quite call it independent, 569 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:24,600 Speaker 8: It's more of a libertarian swing. Here in Montana, we 570 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,919 Speaker 8: do have a lot of folks that their mindset is, hey, 571 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 8: less government's better government, and I can't disagree with that 572 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 8: one bit. You know, their outlook is really, I don't 573 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 8: really care what party, just stay out of my curios, 574 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 8: don't bother me, and go home. And I think those folks, 575 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 8: of course, there's only one party now that even mentions, 576 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 8: you know, smaller government, that even mentions restricting the power 577 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 8: of our federal government. And we know which part of 578 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 8: that is. So I think that that kind of libertarian 579 00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,920 Speaker 8: position has drifted to the right here in these last 580 00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 8: few years, especially especially during and after COVID, when we 581 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 8: saw the greatest trampling of our constitutional rights in the 582 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 8: history of this country. 583 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 1: Tim four Mt dot com is where you can go 584 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: to help out and pitch in.

Before before 650 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: before Biden, it was a twelve pack. Now it is 651 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 1: sadly just a six pack. 652 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,719 Speaker 5: It's crazy how much everything costs. All right, couple of 653 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:44,960 Speaker 5: things that are out there. Report from Bloomberg that Donald 654 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 5: Trump is down to a final four on his vice 655 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 5: presidential list. 656 00:31:50,040 --> 00:31:51,920 Speaker 2: I just tweeted out a poll. 657 00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:54,240 Speaker 5: We will share it from Clay and Buck if you 658 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 5: want to vote both Buck and Mine's pick still alive 659 00:31:59,800 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 5: and in the final four.

I'm not claiming 661 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 5: that this is one hundred percent accurate. I'm telling you 662 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 5: what Bloomberg reported. Senators Tim Scott, Marco Rubio, and JD. Vance, 663 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 5: and then Governor Doug Bergham of North Dakota. That is 664 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 5: the report for men. What do you think about this 665 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 5: final four? First of all, do you think it's accurate? 666 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,240 Speaker 2: No, I don't. I don't think it's accurate. 667 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: I think that the easiest way to get clicks and 668 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,640 Speaker 1: attention at this part of the political cycle for any 669 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: of these news organizations is speak to somebody that you 670 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: can plausibly claim has access to Trump in his inner 671 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: circle and come up with your VP list. I think, 672 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: you know, Bloomberg, they probably aren't just flying off the 673 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: handle here. They have some kind of sourcing on this one. 674 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:57,479 Speaker 1: The fact that there's not a single woman in the mix, though, 675 00:32:57,520 --> 00:33:01,560 Speaker 1: I find surprising. Doug Bergham is the one though that 676 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: I just why, well, what would that he doesn't have 677 00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 1: name recognition. 678 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 5: Trump must really like him or something. Is I think 679 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 5: Trump really likes him. We've had him on the show 680 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,880 Speaker 5: a couple of times. I think it's the no drama factor. 681 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 5: He's a really successful business guy. If you really go 682 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 5: back to Mike Pence, Mike Pence is the most bland 683 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 5: politician on the planet. Well, he was supposed to make 684 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 5: evangelicals feel comfortable that Trump wasn't you know, about to 685 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 5: turn into like a atheist socialist or something. But I 686 00:33:32,320 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 5: don't think like we had the Veke on the show yesterday, 687 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 5: right or two days ago, whatever day it was. 688 00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 2: I love the Vike. 689 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 5: Theveke is not going to shrink into the corner and 690 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,959 Speaker 5: be unnoticeable. He is outspoken. He's going to get attention. 691 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 2: You know my job. 692 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 1: I think Devike really wants to be I was joking 693 00:33:50,120 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 1: around about how you know, Treasury Secretary and Treasury Building 694 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 1: of all the of all the agencies and buildings in 695 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 1: d C. Treasury buildings is really nice, really close to 696 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 1: the White House, but not the White House. 697 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 2: It's a little more chill. 698 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: You're right there kind of looking off to the back 699 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:10,360 Speaker 1: of the White House where the pickups with the helicopter happened. Anyway, 700 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: it's a nice building. I would say, I would say 701 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 1: if Vake would enjoy the most being Press secretary, I 702 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: think I think he loves just he doesn't need the money. 703 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 2: He doesn't care. 704 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:22,960 Speaker 1: He's got more money than he's ever gonna spend, so 705 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: it's not like it's a he needs it as a 706 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,239 Speaker 1: career stepping stone. I feel like he would really enjoy. 707 00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:30,239 Speaker 1: Could you imagine him as Press secretary, it would be 708 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: a slaughter, It'd be great TV. 709 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,279 Speaker 2: He would, he would, he'd be so good. 710 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: Really, So I think that'd be you know, I don't 711 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:39,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if you would take that job. He 712 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 1: probably wants to build more companies and be on the 713 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:42,920 Speaker 1: outside into his thing, because remember, you got to be 714 00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 1: if you're taking a White House role, you gotta be 715 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: at the White House, you gotta live in DC, you 716 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 1: got to actually do these things. So I don't think 717 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:52,479 Speaker 1: that's for him necessarily. We'll see, Okay, So VP picks 718 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 1: so sorry Bergham, Tim Scott. Still the betting home, I would. 719 00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 5: Say, is in the Mike Pence realm, where he's not 720 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 5: going to really eight waves, but he's more of a 721 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 5: business guy than an evangelical guy. Vance who you like 722 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:10,240 Speaker 5: as your top pick? Senator from Ohio? Marco Rubio. Complications 723 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 5: there are that he's from Florida. They would have to 724 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 5: figure out the residency issue, but that would be a 725 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 5: sign that Trump thinks there's a lot of Hispanic men 726 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 5: to play, make a play for. And then to me 727 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,720 Speaker 5: Tim Scott, who I think is going to be the pick. 728 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 5: I think Trump believes that there are black men out 729 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:27,719 Speaker 5: there that are going to support him. I think he 730 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,040 Speaker 5: sees Tim Scott as part of pathway there. Let me 731 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 5: give you the results so far. You can go vote. 732 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 5: Three thousand of you have voted in the first five minutes. 733 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 5: Tim Scott thirty seven percent. Jd Vance thirty one percent, 734 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 5: twenty three percent, Marco Rubio nine percent. Doug Bergham. I 735 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,840 Speaker 5: think a lot of people just don't know. Doug Bergham 736 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 5: would be to a certain extent. This is going to 737 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 5: be a name recognition poll, and Doug Bergham, I would say, 738 00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 5: is the least well known of this group. 739 00:35:58,560 --> 00:35:59,959 Speaker 2: So those four are out there. 740 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 5: But Bucket said he thinks it's going to be jd 741 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,040 Speaker 5: Vance I have said I think it's going to be 742 00:36:05,120 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 5: Tim Scott. We'll see how this continues to play out, 743 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 5: but I wanted to update all of you. 744 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:11,160 Speaker 2: Just because that story was out there. 745 00:36:11,520 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 5: Also, Trump has started to take aim at RFK Junior. 746 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:21,240 Speaker 5: A lot of attention out there on Trump v. Biden. 747 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,839 Speaker 5: We all know that, but the Trump team has now 748 00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:28,480 Speaker 5: gone into the archives and they're finding a lot of 749 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:31,319 Speaker 5: stuff that RFK Junior has said. In the past, I 750 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 5: have said, I think RFK Junior is one hundred percent 751 00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 5: right on or ninety nine point, like a huge percentage 752 00:36:39,200 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 5: right on COVID. That's where I would agree atinghold. 753 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: But now now I'm gonna put my full RFK skepticism 754 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 1: once again on display. And I was skeptical from the beginning. 755 00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: And I know we still have people call in and 756 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:51,959 Speaker 1: said that they would you know, They're like, I listened 757 00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: to Rush for thirty years. I'm super conservative, and I 758 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: love Trump, and I think RFK would be a great VP. 759 00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,160 Speaker 1: And I sit here and I go, he's a Democrat. 760 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,040 Speaker 2: Well what am I am? I taking crazy pills here? 761 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: He's a Democrat? Wh why didn't I don't understand why 762 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 2: people don't see that as a problem. 763 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,080 Speaker 1: He's good on COVID, Clay, you, I everybody on the 764 00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:11,880 Speaker 1: right who is worth anything is good on COVID. Yeah, 765 00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 1: that alone is enough. I think there are people frustrated. 766 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 1: I think a lot of the DeSantis people are COVID 767 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,320 Speaker 1: voters and they're frustrated because they don't think Trump was 768 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,360 Speaker 1: good enough on COVID, and so they see RFK Junior 769 00:37:23,400 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 1: as that pathway. But I want to play these two 770 00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:28,760 Speaker 1: cuts for you because and we've Rfk's been on the show, 771 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: We've invited him back on the show. I think he 772 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: should have the right to explain himself on these cuts, 773 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:37,399 Speaker 1: and people evolve, certainly I have. I was gonna say, 774 00:37:37,400 --> 00:37:39,080 Speaker 1: you're just gonna say he doesn't believe what he says 775 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: in these cuts anymore, But I. 776 00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:44,239 Speaker 5: Do think you should hear them. Here is August of 777 00:37:44,320 --> 00:37:49,319 Speaker 5: twenty sixteen. RFK Junior says that he's supporting Hillary and 778 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,280 Speaker 5: he thinks she's going to be a very very good president. 779 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 10: Listen, are you solidly for Hillary or are you more 780 00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 10: anti Trump? Oh? 781 00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 2: I'm solidly for Hillary. 782 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 11: I think Hillary is going to be a very very 783 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:01,920 Speaker 11: good president. 784 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 5: Okay, I mean solidly for Hillary. In twenty sixteen, here. 785 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 5: He also is Now this is further back, this is 786 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 5: from two thousand and five, but this is actually a 787 00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 5: pretty direct attack on people who live in Red states. 788 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:21,359 Speaker 5: This is a again a flashback RFK two thousand and five. 789 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 11: Red state people are more likely to murder you, to 790 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 11: impregnate your teenage daughter, to commit a violent crime against you, 791 00:38:30,719 --> 00:38:33,320 Speaker 11: to commit a non violent crime against you, to watch 792 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 11: Desperate Housewives on TV, to buy pornography, to buy you know, 793 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 11: degenerate video games like Grand Theft a Otto. 794 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 2: So that is a take on Red state. 795 00:38:46,239 --> 00:38:47,919 Speaker 5: Now, you can maybe say I was joking a little 796 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:52,880 Speaker 5: bit with the Desperate Housewives line, But as RFK is 797 00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 5: fleshing out to me, this is a sign that there 798 00:38:56,719 --> 00:38:59,799 Speaker 5: is recognition that he I think he hurts Trump more 799 00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 5: than he hurts Biden. 800 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: I've thought that all along, and you know, I just 801 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 1: just to clear the air. I have been skeptical of 802 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:09,399 Speaker 1: RFK as a candidate. Yeah, we agree on COVID, right, 803 00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: I mean there are other you know, Berenson was a 804 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,759 Speaker 1: hero on COVID and is I would say center right now. 805 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:18,319 Speaker 1: But he's not some huge Trump fan. I mean there 806 00:39:18,360 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 1: are people out there who who fit this mold of 807 00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,200 Speaker 1: just seeing COVID lockdowns and all that for what it was. 808 00:39:25,440 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 1: I've been skeptical of him because he's a Democrat the 809 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 1: whole time, and I've thought the whole time he's gonna 810 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,200 Speaker 1: hurt Trump. He's gonna hurt Trump more. You know what 811 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 1: you don't see and maybe I'm missing this. I mean, 812 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 1: there's only so much that anyone can absorb, and we're 813 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,480 Speaker 1: just constantly living in this news cycle. Clay and I 814 00:39:39,560 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 1: both I don't see Democrats attacking him the way they 815 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,359 Speaker 1: would if they really thought that he was a threat. 816 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 2: Are you seeing that? 817 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 1: I don't see Democrats trying to trying to, you know, 818 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:57,479 Speaker 1: tear down RFK Junior as aggressively as they go after 819 00:39:57,520 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 1: people that they think really pose a challenge to their 820 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 1: power mad nature. 821 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 2: You know, I don't see it. I feel like they're playing. 822 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 3: Us, and. 823 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: I've just saying it all along. 824 00:40:09,680 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 5: But I do think that they don't want third parties. 825 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 5: Jill Stein hurts them. Jill Stein is taking votes from 826 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 5: Joe Biden. I think Carnell West is taking votes from 827 00:40:21,800 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 5: Joe Biden. But I think that RFK Junior is going 828 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 5: to take more votes from Trump. So the fact that 829 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,080 Speaker 5: they're I think they're playing a little bit of a 830 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:37,920 Speaker 5: subterfuge game here where they claim that they actually are 831 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 5: really afraid of RFK Junior to try to keep the 832 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:44,799 Speaker 5: Trump people from recognizing that it actually hurts them, hurts 833 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:45,560 Speaker 5: helps them. 834 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: So I completely see it that way too, and I 835 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 1: have all along and this is why I've been very 836 00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: skeptical of the I don't understand where yet he is 837 00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:58,480 Speaker 1: good on one thing. There are a lot of things 838 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,680 Speaker 1: that you need to be able to do. Remember, it's 839 00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:04,080 Speaker 1: not just about being the VP for electoral prospects. I 840 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:07,799 Speaker 1: honestly I would bet money that Trump has I think 841 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:09,879 Speaker 1: Trump is going to see triple digits. Like I think 842 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:14,799 Speaker 1: he's in phenomenal condition for somebody his age. But when 843 00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:17,400 Speaker 1: someone's going to be in their eighties, the vice president 844 00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:19,799 Speaker 1: needs to be ready to go. And to me, as 845 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: a conservative and one who's been a conservative since you know, 846 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 1: I was watching Saturday morning cartoons, basically, I don't see 847 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,960 Speaker 1: how you could ever think having a member of the 848 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 1: Kennedy family no less. I mean, I know he's supposed 849 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 1: to be kind of rogue and they've turned on him now, 850 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 1: but you're gonna put a Kennedy on a Republican ticket 851 00:41:37,480 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 1: and tell me this is I think they're trying to 852 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,279 Speaker 1: swindle people, and I know no one likes to hear 853 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 1: they're being swindled. 854 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 2: I think they're trying to swindle people. I really do. 855 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:48,919 Speaker 5: I would I would be fine with anybody as VP 856 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 5: if it meant Biden lost, like I would. I'm just 857 00:41:51,320 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 5: being honest, like I would roll the dice on we 858 00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,719 Speaker 5: had Tulcy Gabbert on. I really like her, I like 859 00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,239 Speaker 5: the veg I would be fine with any of these 860 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:01,239 Speaker 5: four finalists. 861 00:42:01,680 --> 00:42:02,719 Speaker 2: Can I address that real quick? 862 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 1: Also, because obviously I feel very different, you know, I 863 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:07,919 Speaker 1: feel very differently in terms of my trade. 864 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:09,280 Speaker 2: Look, I'm just going on gut. 865 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,799 Speaker 1: I I trust that Tulsi Gabbert has come to the right, 866 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: you know, overwhelmingly and fully because she experienced what happened 867 00:42:18,200 --> 00:42:23,160 Speaker 1: with the Democratic You're somebody who has overwhelmingly shifted your own 868 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,520 Speaker 1: believe you know, so we come at this different perspective. 869 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,879 Speaker 5: I think that, yeah, right, I think people have gone 870 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 5: so crazy that I kind of stayed the same place, 871 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:33,319 Speaker 5: and I'm gone from somebody who was center left at 872 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 5: like twenty to now being like considered far right wing 873 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:38,080 Speaker 5: and many of the things I believe are the exact 874 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,200 Speaker 5: name most stuff. And it's just kind of crazy of 875 00:42:40,200 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 5: how much I think the political environment has shifted. But yes, 876 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:43,320 Speaker 5: you like Tulsi. 877 00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: I think Tulsi has made a conversion so people and 878 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: people can disagree with that, and you know, and the 879 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:56,080 Speaker 1: RFK thing. Also, you know, Kennedy knows like a lot 880 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,160 Speaker 1: of it's just the family name and you know, all 881 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: the environmental stuff. And I'd love to talk to him 882 00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 1: about climate change, like do you believe in all that nonsense? 883 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:03,840 Speaker 1: Like you really think we're going to die because of 884 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: climate change? And you know, the humanity is going to 885 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:07,960 Speaker 1: be over a lot of questions I could ask him. 886 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 1: I do think that the third party thing is that 887 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: we talk about how Biden could win. We're looking at 888 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 1: super narrow margins, We're looking at a brand fight of 889 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,680 Speaker 1: Democrat versus Republican, especially with Biden at the head of 890 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 1: the Democrat ticket. Third party could be the thing that delivered. 891 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 1: And I know people don't like to hear it, but 892 00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: you look at the Jill Stein vote in twenty sixteen. 893 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:31,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Jill Stein, no libertarian vote in twenty against Trump. 894 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, Libertarians, I got some. I gotta talk to you 895 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: libert the libertarians out there. 896 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:38,399 Speaker 2: I don't know. 897 00:43:38,600 --> 00:43:40,439 Speaker 1: I thought COVID was going to be your super Bowl. 898 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: A lot of libertarians were like. 899 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,320 Speaker 2: Well, they have a right to shut down the churches. 900 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 2: I was like, I don't think they do. I don't 901 00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 2: think they do. 902 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 1: Libertarians some of them went a little not all of you, 903 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: I'm throw a little shadyer. Not all of you, but 904 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: some of you went a little little mia on me 905 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:54,720 Speaker 1: during COVID. 906 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 5: I will just say I would take anybody as VP 907 00:43:59,000 --> 00:44:01,400 Speaker 5: if it meant that Trump would win. Now, the argument 908 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 5: of does the VP really matter, I think is a 909 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:07,319 Speaker 5: very valid one. But if you told me I would 910 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,920 Speaker 5: take a RFK Junior, I would anybody at VP. I 911 00:44:09,920 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 5: feel confident Trump's going to live through his term, but 912 00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 5: I just want to be Biden. Speaking of VP candidateacy, 913 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:19,759 Speaker 5: see that the governor of South Dakota, Christy nom has 914 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,879 Speaker 5: been community noted on x for changing her story now 915 00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 5: about the dog, because it is now what she is 916 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:29,480 Speaker 5: saying on TV is not what was said in the book. 917 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:33,760 Speaker 5: And for anyone who says who cares about this fair 918 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:37,200 Speaker 5: another news story today. She claimed in her book, which 919 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 5: is called No Turning Back, which many are pointing out 920 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,400 Speaker 5: the irony of this one to have met Kim Jong un. 921 00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 5: The problem with the claim that she met Kim Jong 922 00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:49,640 Speaker 5: un is that she did not meet Kim Jong un, 923 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:55,120 Speaker 5: as now even her spokes hack has has set out 924 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 5: in public, so they're now having to. 925 00:44:57,120 --> 00:45:00,200 Speaker 2: Change that in the book. I don't know, man. 926 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,360 Speaker 1: If I told you that I met Elvis in my 927 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 1: memoir and then I was like, actually, I didn't meet Elvis, 928 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 1: you might think that. 929 00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 2: Was a bit strange because you would remember, wouldn't You. 930 00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:15,320 Speaker 5: Were moving rapidly towards the Charles Barkley when he claimed 931 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,680 Speaker 5: that he was misquoted in his own autobiography. Do you 932 00:45:17,719 --> 00:45:20,520 Speaker 5: remember this, Like this is probably like twenty five years ago. 933 00:45:21,600 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 5: He was doing his publicity tour and he was like, 934 00:45:23,520 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 5: I don't think I said that, and they were like, 935 00:45:24,960 --> 00:45:26,959 Speaker 5: it's in your book and he was like, I didn't 936 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 5: read it. I mean, so again, I just if you 937 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:33,879 Speaker 5: decide you want to get elected president because you killed 938 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 5: the dog and you want to share that story, and 939 00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 5: then you lie about meeting the dictator of North. 940 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,479 Speaker 2: Korea, like that seems like kind of a big deal. 941 00:45:40,560 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 2: In your oldest story, I was. 942 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:43,799 Speaker 1: Reporting the news I mean, she got community noted on 943 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: the dog situation, so they're saying that she's changed the 944 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 1: story and you know, largely changed the story in a 945 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:53,319 Speaker 1: way that the ex community has has weighed in on. 946 00:45:53,400 --> 00:45:55,759 Speaker 1: And then the story about the North I mean, could 947 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 1: you go go check it out? I mean, tell me 948 00:45:57,520 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 1: if I'm wrong. I mean, if she met, if she 949 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 1: met Kim Jong ung. I would love to hear in 950 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,920 Speaker 1: detail about it, but apparently not. So it's important you 951 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,600 Speaker 1: get these things right. It's one thing, Clay, you know, 952 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:10,040 Speaker 1: and I know from book World, your enemies are going 953 00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,279 Speaker 1: to dive.

It's also hard 956 00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,000 Speaker 1: to meet the dictator of North Korea. It's not like 957 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 1: he just randomly shows up in Pere, South Dakota. There's 958 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 1: been a deal, it would be a big deal. 959 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 5: There's an attack on the excellence in America, not just 960 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 5: protesting on campuses, Excellence attacked in many of our institutions 961 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:38,799 Speaker 5: and industries out there.

But they 1014 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 5: used to allow greyhound racing in the state you call 1015 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 5: home now Florida. As a kid, I went to what's 1016 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 5: wrong with dog racing is that?

You're a fantastic guy. 1044 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 5: You're a patriot. Are you optimistic? I know you've made 1045 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 5: contact with the UNC fraternity guys who helped to hold 1046 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:46,680 Speaker 5: up the flag. When you see what's happened at so 1047 00:50:46,719 --> 00:50:50,320 Speaker 5: many different Southern schools, and the kids who've been willing 1048 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:53,919 Speaker 5: to show up and counter protest the anti Israel protesters 1049 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 5: Are you optimistic about the next generation. What can you 1050 00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:00,920 Speaker 5: tell us about your contact with those guys, Yes, I am. 1051 00:51:01,160 --> 00:51:03,680 Speaker 10: I can tell you. First of all, I played concerts 1052 00:51:03,719 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 10: all over the US, and so I see this kind 1053 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:09,399 Speaker 10: of this kind of patriotism from the stage. I look 1054 00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 10: out and see just vast tens of thousands of people singing, 1055 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 10: you know, God bless America at the top of their 1056 00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 10: lungs at every single show. So they're out there. I 1057 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:24,359 Speaker 10: think we have maybe been tricked into thinking that America's 1058 00:51:24,400 --> 00:51:28,200 Speaker 10: youth is by and large the ones that are running 1059 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 10: around acting like idiots and protesting and tearing stuff up, 1060 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:36,320 Speaker 10: that we think that's what it is. But in honesty, 1061 00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,800 Speaker 10: what it is is they're the ones that get on TV. 1062 00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:43,920 Speaker 10: I think the hard work, forward thinking American youth for 1063 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 10: the most part, you don't see them on TV, man 1064 00:51:46,360 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 10: because they're not they're not causing any trouble. They're studying, 1065 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 10: they're working, they're trying to figure out how to plan 1066 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 10: their life and go be a success in America. So 1067 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:57,000 Speaker 10: I don't think you hear from them. But when I 1068 00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:00,799 Speaker 10: saw those those FRAPs that un see stand underneath the 1069 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 10: flag and make sure it didn't touch the ground, which 1070 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,840 Speaker 10: is a big deal. Anybody that knows about flag etiquette, 1071 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 10: you're never supposed to let the United States flag touch 1072 00:52:08,239 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 10: the ground. I saw that and went with somebody raised 1073 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:13,520 Speaker 10: those boys right because they know how to treat the flag. 1074 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,120 Speaker 10: And even though they had rocks and bottles and sticks 1075 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,520 Speaker 10: being thrown at them, they never dropped the flag. They 1076 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 10: just held it until it got raised back up to 1077 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,319 Speaker 10: the top. It impressed me to such a degree that 1078 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,440 Speaker 10: I basically just reached out on Twitter on X and 1079 00:52:27,480 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 10: I said, Hey, anybody knows how to get a hold 1080 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 10: of these guys, let me know, but I would like 1081 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 10: to offer a free concert for them whenever they decide 1082 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 10: to have this rager, as they put it on their 1083 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 10: donation page. And now I've been able to connect with 1084 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:43,480 Speaker 10: those guys and it looks like we're going to put 1085 00:52:43,520 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 10: something together really significant. I've had all kinds of artists 1086 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 10: calling me saying, hey, man, let me know what that 1087 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,399 Speaker 10: date is, because I will be the Lee Greenwood hit 1088 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,759 Speaker 10: me with the text and said, hey, John, you think 1089 00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:57,280 Speaker 10: those college guys would want to hear God Bless the USA. 1090 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,319 Speaker 10: And I said, yeah, Lee, I'm pretty sure that want 1091 00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:02,520 Speaker 10: to hear that one and so he goes cool, tell 1092 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 10: them my men. So I think this can become a 1093 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:09,879 Speaker 10: real moment where we celebrate young Americans who are patriotic 1094 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:12,719 Speaker 10: and who are sick and tired of the nonsense that 1095 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:14,400 Speaker 10: they've had to deal with. If you think about what 1096 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 10: they've been through since twenty twenty, take the back So 1097 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 10: you can't go to college, take all your classes online. No, 1098 00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,560 Speaker 10: you're not going to have a graduation. And now they 1099 00:53:23,560 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 10: look up and their campuses are totally overrun, and here 1100 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 10: we go again. They've got a lot to deal with. 1101 00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:32,480 Speaker 10: So I think they should be celebrated. And I'm proud 1102 00:53:32,520 --> 00:53:34,360 Speaker 10: to be a part of it and looking forward to 1103 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 10: making this a really big deal. 1104 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 1: Hey John, it's buck. You know, you're a country music superstar, 1105 00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 1: a patriot, and a musician, so we think you're perfect 1106 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:46,759 Speaker 1: to weigh in on a controversy here. I don't want 1107 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:48,799 Speaker 1: to put you too much on the hot seat, but 1108 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:53,520 Speaker 1: as a musician and country music superstar, do you give 1109 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:59,840 Speaker 1: respect to all instruments, including all of the woodwinds equally 1110 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:02,959 Speaker 1: or do you pick and choose among the instruments out there? 1111 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:05,640 Speaker 1: Because I will tell you Clay has some choice words 1112 00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:06,840 Speaker 1: about flute players. 1113 00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,240 Speaker 2: Sir, Clay's calling out the flute players. 1114 00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:11,680 Speaker 5: I'm anti flute. I think if you're a grown man 1115 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:13,600 Speaker 5: you play the flute, you should have picked another instrument. 1116 00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:15,840 Speaker 5: You're a musical genius. What do you how do you 1117 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 5: analyze the different respective instruments? 1118 00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 10: Well, I will tell you that back in the day now, 1119 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:25,759 Speaker 10: the Revolutionary War, they had guys hitting the bombs and 1120 00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,440 Speaker 10: they had guys blowing flute. Okay, I mean you heard it. 1121 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:33,040 Speaker 10: The British heard it, So I don't know, that's pretty manly. 1122 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 10: If you can continue playing a flute while bullets are 1123 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 10: whizzing by your head, that's that's pretty good. So I 1124 00:54:38,280 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 10: don't know. 1125 00:54:38,680 --> 00:54:39,319 Speaker 2: Thank you, sir. 1126 00:54:39,600 --> 00:54:41,440 Speaker 1: He didn't even have to go Jethrow Tull on us. 1127 00:54:41,440 --> 00:54:44,000 Speaker 1: He just pulled out Revolutionary War Clay. I think John 1128 00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:45,840 Speaker 1: just solved this. Solve this riddle. 1129 00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 5: John tying in with that, You've got a great whiskey, 1130 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,319 Speaker 5: and I was sampling some of it at your at 1131 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:57,879 Speaker 5: your Marshall Blackburn Uh fundraiser that you threw.

You know bourbon, you know that the 1136 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 5: mint julip. In my opinion, I'm an old fashioned guy. 1137 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,760 Speaker 5: I'm also fine with whiskey. You know in ice on ice, 1138 00:55:16,400 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 5: do you find the mint julop to be as awful 1139 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:20,600 Speaker 5: of a drink as I do? Can you think of 1140 00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:22,680 Speaker 5: a drink that you've tried and you thought, Man, this 1141 00:55:22,760 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 5: thing is so overhyped? How would you assess the liquor 1142 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:26,279 Speaker 5: breakdown here? 1143 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 10: I would agree with you on the mint julip. I've 1144 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 10: never been a big fan of that. Now there is 1145 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 10: a whiskey version of that. It's funny you bring that up. 1146 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 10: At the top of my Twitter page on X, I 1147 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,880 Speaker 10: just posted a redneck rivier, a Thoroughbred was what we 1148 00:55:43,000 --> 00:55:45,359 Speaker 10: call it. It's for the Kentucky Derby and it has 1149 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,680 Speaker 10: a couple of the elements of a mint julip, but 1150 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:50,120 Speaker 10: it's using Rednick Riviera whiskey. So if you're looking for 1151 00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,719 Speaker 10: an alternative, just go to my Twitter page at John 1152 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,320 Speaker 10: Rich and make the thing. It's like four or five ingredients. 1153 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:57,400 Speaker 10: But I agree with you. The mint julip as it 1154 00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:00,799 Speaker 10: stands it's a classic. I would never order one. I 1155 00:56:00,840 --> 00:56:05,960 Speaker 10: think people probably only drink those when the race happens. 1156 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:05,040 Speaker 2: No doubt. 1157 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 5: By the way, how optimistic are you about Texas joining 1158 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:10,879 Speaker 5: the SEC? You're a huge Texas Longhorn fan. You were 1159 00:56:10,920 --> 00:56:13,799 Speaker 5: in the Rose Bowl for the Vince Young National Championship 1160 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:16,920 Speaker 5: win over my buddy Matt Lioner, one of the probably 1161 00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 5: the greatest college football game in the last thirty forty years. 1162 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,120 Speaker 5: I know Texas made the playoff this past year, and 1163 00:56:23,120 --> 00:56:24,880 Speaker 5: I know you were excited about that. You came on 1164 00:56:24,960 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 5: big noon. How are the Longhorns gonna do as full 1165 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:29,080 Speaker 5: fledged SEC members? 1166 00:56:30,480 --> 00:56:33,120 Speaker 10: You know, I think they'll do fine. It's obviously that 1167 00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 10: the competition is going to be I mean, every week 1168 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:38,839 Speaker 10: is going to be another grinder. But one thing I'm 1169 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:41,440 Speaker 10: really excited about for next year in college football is 1170 00:56:41,480 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 10: the playoff scenario finally. I mean, you know, if you're 1171 00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 10: a really good team and you barely missed a cut, 1172 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 10: well you won't barely miss it this time. You're actually 1173 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:52,000 Speaker 10: gonna have a shot. I think that's gonna make it 1174 00:56:52,320 --> 00:56:56,000 Speaker 10: a really exciting finish to college football. Are you pretty 1175 00:56:56,000 --> 00:56:57,319 Speaker 10: happy to see that set up that. 1176 00:56:57,320 --> 00:57:00,319 Speaker 2: Way as well? Yeah, you know, I had Buck with me. 1177 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,719 Speaker 5: We went to watch Texas play Alabama and Athens a 1178 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:05,399 Speaker 5: couple of years I mean, uh in Austin a couple 1179 00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,600 Speaker 5: of years ago. Phenomenal scene. I think it's gonna be 1180 00:57:08,640 --> 00:57:11,319 Speaker 5: a great fit for both Texas and Oklahoma. I can't 1181 00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 5: wait to see how it all shakes out. 1182 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:16,480 Speaker 10: Yeah, me too. And you know I'm married at Texas, Aggy, 1183 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:18,120 Speaker 10: so oh, I know you. 1184 00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 2: Got an A and M. 1185 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:20,840 Speaker 5: You got A and M and H in Texas. Your 1186 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:22,479 Speaker 5: your kids are gonna have to choose now. 1187 00:57:23,320 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 3: I know. 1188 00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:26,120 Speaker 10: My oldest son is A and M. My youngest son 1189 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,400 Speaker 10: is a Longhorn fan. So it's definitely a civil war 1190 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:30,280 Speaker 10: in the house when that game is gonna happen. I 1191 00:57:30,320 --> 00:57:31,160 Speaker 10: can't wait for it. 1192 00:57:31,360 --> 00:57:32,720 Speaker 2: That's gonna be great to have it back. 1193 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:35,800 Speaker 10: Yeah it is. That was always one of the most 1194 00:57:35,840 --> 00:57:39,080 Speaker 10: classic head to head you know, matchups, rivalries anywhere in 1195 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:41,040 Speaker 10: the US. So I hated to lose that. So I 1196 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 10: think it's gonna be great. Man, Texas going the SEC. 1197 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 10: I think it stumbs up across the board. 1198 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 5: Now you've got Also, this is pretty cool.
