1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:05,000 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton show. Okay, I 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,400 Speaker 1: want to give a little bit of a lead up, Buck, 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: because there is a race that is going to happen 4 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:17,160 Speaker 1: eight days from now. They are one billion percent relying 5 00:00:17,200 --> 00:00:20,240 Speaker 1: on the fact that lots of Republicans are not going 6 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 1: to show up and vote. 7 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:23,239 Speaker 2: And this is a. 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:27,639 Speaker 1: Race that the White House has gotten involved in that 9 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:32,280 Speaker 1: we don't have a very substantial majority in the House. Democrats, 10 00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: coming off of the win in Virginia and the win 11 00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:40,000 Speaker 1: in New Jersey, are pouring money and resources like crazy 12 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:45,120 Speaker 1: into this race. It is the Tennessee seventh Congressional district. 13 00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:46,600 Speaker 2: This is a big district. 14 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: It stretches all the way up to basically Fort Campbell. 15 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,239 Speaker 1: For many of you out there that are in the 16 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,639 Speaker 1: military or have served, you know, Fort Campbell goes all 17 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: the way to the border basically with Kentucky, all the 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: way to the border with Alabama on the south side. 19 00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: I'm in this district. 20 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 1: They cut Nashville into three different congressional districts. I am 21 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: in this district. The congressman is retiring Mark green All. 22 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: They are trying to pull off a huge upset. And 23 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: let me give you an idea Buck. This is a 24 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 1: headline right now in the Bulwark I'm reading from. This 25 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 1: is the What was the initial impetus of the Bulwark. 26 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: It was like, we're the Trump Republicans who the anti 27 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: Trump Republicans like that, the real Republicans. That was their 28 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: entire existence for now they're basically just like all they 29 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: do is vote for Democrats, right, I mean they basically 30 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: are a Democrat operative now. This is what they wrote. 31 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: This is a story up on their site. The seventh 32 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: Tennessee district is reliably Republican. Trump carried it by twenty 33 00:01:56,520 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: two percentage points in twenty four Green won his last 34 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 1: two races by a similar margin. It includes parts of 35 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: Williamson County, one of the wealthiest counties in the country. 36 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: The Fort Campbell Military Base also falls within the district, 37 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,639 Speaker 1: along with a vast swath of rural farmland. Perhaps the 38 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 1: most tantalizing for Democrats listen to this. A number of 39 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: MAGA fire brands live in or near the district, like 40 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: conservative sports radio personality Clay Travis, YouTuber Brett Cooper, and 41 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: right wing podcaster Candae Owens. Imagine as an example, the 42 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: psychic shock of a Republican emerging victorious in the movie 43 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: star enclave of Beverly Hills, Tennessee. Seven isn't where the 44 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 1: two political parties tend to fight it out, but they 45 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: have poured tons of money in here. And here's what 46 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,240 Speaker 1: they're relying on, and we're going to bring on the 47 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: congressman in the top of the next hour. They're relying 48 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: on Republicans not showing up. 49 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 2: Buck. 50 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,639 Speaker 1: You know, this the crazy base of the Democrat Party, 51 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: the people who have the most fervent Trump derangement syndrome 52 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 1: on the planet. They show up for dog catcher races 53 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: to vote against Trump. They show up for every race. 54 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: Their base they are going to show up and vote, 55 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: and they're trying to steal this election to try to 56 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: diminish Republican control of the House. 57 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 2: So we got to show up is a big deal 58 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: because they're going to use this as a if they 59 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: can pull this off as a rallying cry for the 60 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: mid terms, they're going to say it's a harbinger for 61 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: the midterms. This shows where the momentum is. That's exactly right, 62 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: this is and it's a It's one of these things 63 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: where even if they get close enough, they're willing to 64 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 2: pour all this money into it and all this resource, 65 00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 2: all these resources in time, because they feel like they're 66 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: playing with house money. They'll get money from the coasts, 67 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 2: They'll get the big, big Democrat money will pour in 68 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 2: if they can steal a seat from dare I say, 69 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 2: Clay Travis's backyard my seat, which is this is what 70 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 2: but this is what I'm saying, Like they're going right 71 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 2: into your kitchen and they're trying to eat your drumsticks, 72 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 2: my friend. They're trying to take it right off your 73 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 2: plate and you and and what they said Brett Cooper, 74 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a bunch Tommy. 75 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: Lamar and Tommy texted me over the weekend, fired up 76 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: about this because again the election. You can go early 77 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: vote right now in Tennessee seven. Okay. And if you 78 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: don't know if this is your district and they're counting 79 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: on this too, Fort Campbell, all of you guys who 80 00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: were up there, who are soldiers or who have lived 81 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: in the Clarksville area, it is likely your district all 82 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 1: the way down to the border with Alabama, if you 83 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: live in that range, this is likely your district. If 84 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: you're in the Franklin area where I live, Brentwood, Nashville, 85 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,720 Speaker 1: many parts of Nashville, this is your district. It's a 86 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 1: little bit confusing, Buck, because even in my neighborhood they 87 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: divide it by street, so some people are represented by 88 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,920 Speaker 1: one congressman, others by another, and it can be literally 89 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,359 Speaker 1: it's divided in my neighborhood. So it's sometimes confusing for 90 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: people to know what district they're in. They're taking advantage 91 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: of this. If you're not sure, worst case scenario, show 92 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: up again, this is Mark Green's district, but a lot 93 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: of you out there you may not know because the lines, 94 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: especially in the Nashville area, are street to street in neighborhoods. 95 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: Worst is a case scenario. You show up and they say, hey, 96 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 1: this is not your district. 97 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: I just don't. They're trying to take advantage of us. Yeah, 98 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 2: you gotta go all out here, my friend, because the 99 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: Democrat media narrative is going to be not even Clay, 100 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,039 Speaker 2: Travis and and Tommy taking shots at me already in 101 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: the article, right, but I'm saying if they win, then 102 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 2: it's going to be see how deflated Maga is. Even 103 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 2: these big Maga names couldn't couldn't help pull this off, right, 104 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: so this, uh, this would be like if Republicans are 105 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 2: trying to win a congressional seat from the Democrats in Malibu. 106 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: Hills, was what Borg said. I mean, this is our base, like, 107 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: we gotta show up. I'm fire up about this because 108 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: you're right, people are gonna attack me if this happens. 109 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: They're gonna say Clay Travis doesn't even live in a 110 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: Republican district anymore. 111 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,359 Speaker 2: This is I mean, that'll be a headline. You gotta 112 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 2: just you know, you gotta talk to the guy at 113 00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 2: peg Leg Porker, who was my favorite barbecue there. And 114 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 2: you gotta have like a big thing outdoor thing a rally, 115 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,760 Speaker 2: and you gotta get everybody to show up. My friend, 116 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,679 Speaker 2: you gotta get the you gotta get the turnout operation 117 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: in full swing. Matt Van Epps is gonna be on 118 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: with us at the top of the next hour. I 119 00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:40,039 Speaker 2: talked to him over the weekend. I'll say it again 120 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 2: on the air, but I told him, whatever you want 121 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 2: me to do. You want to do a rally, you 122 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 2: want to do an event, I will show up. Obviously 123 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 2: getting him on the show is substantial. I've been sharing 124 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 2: a bunch of the clips. 125 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: Buck this chick is crazy, isn't she hates Nashville? 126 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: Isn't that how to run if you hate a place. 127 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 2: I don't understand this. I actually know that's what democrats do. 128 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 2: They want powers they can destroy the places they live. 129 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 2: But she was on MSNBC. I need to pull up 130 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 2: the sound bites. Do we have a couple of these 131 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: things just to kind of give you a sense of 132 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 2: how crazy this chick is. She was on MSNBC Buck, 133 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:20,240 Speaker 2: this is MSNBC. She didn't just say she wanted to 134 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: defund the police. She said she wanted to shut down 135 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 2: the Metro Nashville Police Department. She also said she supported 136 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 2: people burning down police stations. 137 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: MSNBC asked her about this This is MSNBC cut sixteen. 138 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: You said in those since deleted tweets that the Metropolitan 139 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 3: Nashville Police Department should be dissolved. Another shared on a 140 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 3: teachers union saying that defund the police should be a 141 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 3: requirement for schools reopening, and another saying good morning, especially 142 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: to the fifty four percent of Americans that believe burning 143 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: down a police station is justified, do you still stand 144 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 3: by those comments? And if not, is there an then 145 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:00,800 Speaker 3: you want to clarify. 146 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not going to gauge in Kimber News talking points. 147 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 3: So you don't want to clarify whether you still believe 148 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 3: that the police should be defunded. 149 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,120 Speaker 5: Once again, I don't remember these tweets, but I'm what 150 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 5: I'm saying is is that. 151 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 3: I'm not asking if you remember, what is your position today? 152 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 3: How's that on this issue? I mean, once again, I'm 153 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 3: here to talk about my race, which is in literally nine. 154 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 2: Days, Clay, Clay, this chick is insane.

This chick is I'm 162 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 1: trying to avoid cursing crazy. She is absolutely insane. So 163 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,000 Speaker 1: again they're counting on their base of crazies. Think about 164 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: how crazy she is. She won't even walk back saying 165 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: that she wants to defund the police.

She is the quintessential 185 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: crazy left wing. 186 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: She's a white left wing chick that's been able to 187 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 2: support herself in the upper upper echelons of society with 188 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 2: money made by other people her entire life, and has 189 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,080 Speaker 2: no idea how the real world actually works, and has 190 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 2: insane ideas that would destroy civilization. Also known as the 191 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 2: base of the Democrat Party. Cool good, They're going to 192 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 2: show up and vote for her. They're going to show 193 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 2: up and vote for her. This chick makes Kamala Harris 194 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,080 Speaker 2: seem conservative. And Kamala Harris showed up and tried to 195 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 2: campaign for her, but she didn't want to be seen 196 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 2: with Kamala Harris, which is funny in and of itself 197 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 2: because there are a lot of people in Nashville who 198 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,839 Speaker 2: are not big fans of Kamala Harris. So my point 199 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 2: on this, and we're going to have Congressman Van Epps again. 200 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 2: Early voting is going on right now. They are pouring 201 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 2: resources into this district like crazy because the insane left 202 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 2: wing often bane like thirty five year old white women 203 00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:01,520 Speaker 2: who have lost their mind. They've already voted. 204 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: They're showing up and this district again, it's a Trump district, 205 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 1: but they think that Republicans aren't going to show up 206 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 1: because it's a December second, it's in the middle of 207 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 1: the Thanksgiving holiday. 208 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:17,720 Speaker 2: It is not ideal timing.

You got to call the Avengers, buddy. 212 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 2: You cannot allow them to take it. You cannot allow 213 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 2: them to take this, this congressional seat. This is nuts. 214 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: No, we got to get everybody together. I mean, this 215 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 1: is I went on Friday with war Ingram and talked 216 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:38,719 Speaker 1: about it. I mean, this is gonna be I think 217 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: a lead story, uh nationwide over the next week. 218 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 2: And uh. 219 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 1: Again, I'm just trying to wake people up because I 220 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: think a lot of people out there are not aware. 221 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: I mean, how often do you vote for a congressional 222 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: seat on December second? 223 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,200 Speaker 2: Well, this is also why Democrats think that they can 224 00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 2: pull this off, right, because everyone's going to be in 225 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 2: their turkey coma too much Thanksgiving. 226 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 1: And you might be on that vote.

And I think when people 337 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 6: both know that about her and that they can early 338 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 6: vote right now through the twenty sixth and election day 339 00:17:55,119 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 6: December second, that will turn out the vote and it 340 00:17:58,400 --> 00:18:01,200 Speaker 6: will witness decisively December second. 341 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,639 Speaker 1: For people out there. How much do you think the 342 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 1: Democrat plan is just relying on a lot of traditional 343 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 1: Republican voters not being aware this election is happening. Because 344 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: I said in the first hour, their base of crazy 345 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:22,920 Speaker 1: left wing frankly Afton Bane, you know, like mirror image 346 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,959 Speaker 1: voters is going to show up for everything. They're really 347 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: plugged in here. That's basically the Democrats strategy, right, is 348 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 1: that people are just going to be busy and not 349 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 1: be aware this is actually going on. 350 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 4: That's that's right. 351 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 6: We you know, we had we had a great win 352 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:44,640 Speaker 6: in the primary. We have great momentum endorsed by the President, 353 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,240 Speaker 6: back by the Speaker. 354 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 4: We have over forty local endorsements from. 355 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 6: Sheriffs and county mayors, highway superintendents, farmers, business leaders, and 356 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,680 Speaker 6: so that that momentum we're carrying forward. What we can't 357 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:00,400 Speaker 6: have happened is people take it for granted. We've got 358 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 6: to have our side to get out there and vote. 359 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 6: The Democrats are hoping that we don't turn out, and 360 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 6: we've got to fight against this just crazy. 361 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 4: Radical left wing agenda. It's not right for Tennessee, it's 362 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:14,120 Speaker 4: not right for America. 363 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 6: And we do that when people show up with the 364 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 6: jersey on, get on the field and vote. 365 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 2: Affordability is going to be a huge thing, Matt in 366 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 2: the mid terms, and you're going to be your race 367 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: is certainly going to be if the well Heaven forbid. 368 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 2: But if the Democrats pulled this off, they'll say that 369 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 2: it is indicative of the GOP's lack of focus on 370 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 2: the affordability issue. Right now, I wanted you to speak 371 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,639 Speaker 2: to that because there are a lot of people that 372 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,600 Speaker 2: are still feeling that the pinch of high prices at 373 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 2: the pump, at the grocery store. You know, whole discussion 374 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 2: here in Florida about property tax, a lot of things 375 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,919 Speaker 2: that are making people feel like they can't get ahead. 376 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: What do you think could be done in the congressional 377 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 2: side to help with that? And just as a general 378 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: philosophyical issue, how do you want to approach affordability if 379 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,120 Speaker 2: you if in fact you're successful in this election. 380 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 6: Absolutely, and that is top of mind for so many 381 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:09,240 Speaker 6: of our voters. 382 00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:10,919 Speaker 4: And I agree. 383 00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 6: We stand for battling inflation, secure borders, tax cuts, protecting 384 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 6: our kids, cheaper gas, supporting. 385 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 4: Veterans and law enforcement. 386 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 6: Ending wars around the globe, and the affordability piece here is. 387 00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 4: Top of the top of the agenda. And I think 388 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 4: I'm pro nuclear. I think we need to unleash America's 389 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:33,880 Speaker 4: nuclear power and energy. Tennessee is leading with the. 390 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,680 Speaker 6: First small modular reactor at the Clinch riversite in East 391 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 6: Tennessee that should be online in twenty thirty two. And 392 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 6: so we've got to promote oil and gas in nuclears 393 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 6: so that we drive down the costs of the pump, 394 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,760 Speaker 6: we drive down utilities. 395 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 4: Healthcare is really important. 396 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 6: I think a good example is in Carstol, Tennessee, when 397 00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 6: when government gets out of the way and in the 398 00:20:56,440 --> 00:21:00,760 Speaker 6: private sector is put into a we have we have 399 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 6: two new hospitals going in at Clarksville that's going to 400 00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 6: increase access, increase competition, drive down costs, it ultimately increase outcomes. 401 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,120 Speaker 4: And you're absolutely right. At housing, we we've. 402 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 6: Got to keep property facts as low. I think from 403 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 6: a from a federal standpoint, that's no unfunded mandates. We've 404 00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 6: got to work with states and local governments to ensure 405 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,040 Speaker 6: that we have workforce housing at close proximity to the workplace. 406 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,359 Speaker 6: And we've got to we've got to work continue to 407 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:30,800 Speaker 6: work to keep taxes low and to cut red take. 408 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 1: We're talking to who I Hope is going to be 409 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: my next congressman. Matt Van Epps, can you tell everybody 410 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: out there listening right now, because we have a ton 411 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 1: of affiliates. One of the confusing things is your district 412 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 1: runs from basically all the way at Kentucky all the 413 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: way down to Alabama. Can you run through some communities 414 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:53,880 Speaker 1: so people who are out there listening can say, oh, 415 00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: wait a minute, that's me. Because these district lines are 416 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 1: still new, a lot of people out there listening right 417 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: now may not be aware that this race is even 418 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: going on. So I'll start with you Fort Campbell area, 419 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,239 Speaker 1: Clarksville area, a huge part of you. Guys, you are 420 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:16,879 Speaker 1: voting for your congressman now and on December second, Nashville, Franklin, Brentwood, 421 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 1: different parts of the Nashville area. Nashville is split up 422 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 1: into three different congressional districts. And then on down south 423 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: where else what communities should know they are in this 424 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 1: district that you need them to turn out? 425 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 6: Absolutely so on the north side, Stuart, Montgomery and Robertson 426 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 6: is really important. Our western boundary bet in Decatur, we've 427 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 6: got Hickman, Houston, Humphreys, Perry, and. 428 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:48,680 Speaker 4: Wayne Sheatham County. And then on the on our eastern. 429 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 6: Boundary there, as you mentioned, we've got Davidson County, Williamson County, 430 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 6: it's part of Davidson, it's part of Williamson, it's bordered 431 00:22:55,720 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 6: a border. And we need everyone to get out and vote. 432 00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 6: It's just it's so incredibly important. It's really it's all 433 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 6: fourteen counties. We need everyone from every county on our 434 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 6: side to get out and vote.

She's a former 510 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:30,199 Speaker 2: White House Press secretary and she has a family with 511 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,480 Speaker 2: fantastic taste and radio because her dad listens to the 512 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 2: show every day. So we're all gonna be on our 513 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 2: best behavior. Play's halo is still intact, still intact. 514 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: I'm not the exact I don't know what just went 515 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: out over national radio. There my analysis of the Olivia 516 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,880 Speaker 1: Nuzzy situation. 517 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: We'll maybe get to that with Kaylee too. Kelly, let's 518 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 2: start with this because you also are a Harvard law graduate, 519 00:27:55,280 --> 00:28:01,920 Speaker 2: so let's discuss the judicial resistance here. The judge dismissed 520 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:07,199 Speaker 2: both of the indictments against Letitia James and against James Comy. 521 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 2: What do you make of it? 522 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, so they did not reach the subject matter, and that, 523 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 7: you know, let's tiss James. They were not comment here 524 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 7: commentating on the seriousness of the mortgage allegations against her 525 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 7: and James Comy on the alleged perjury, so they didn't 526 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 7: get to the heart of the matter, the facts of 527 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,080 Speaker 7: the case. However, what they're saying is Lindsay Halligan when 528 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 7: she was appointed to that position of interim attorney. It's complex, 529 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 7: but there's a one hundred and twenty day period. The 530 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 7: president can put someone there, and then a court decides. 531 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 7: They say the manner in which she was appointed was 532 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 7: unconstitutional and therefore any case stemming from her appointment was 533 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:48,239 Speaker 7: therefore not dismissed, but dismissed without prejudice, which means that 534 00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 7: Trump can refile the case. And I say Trump, but 535 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,480 Speaker 7: what I mean is the Trump administration, the DOJ. We'll 536 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 7: see if they do that. They can reprosecute it, they 537 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 7: can file an appeal, they have all sorts of ways 538 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 7: to go about this. So James not in the clear, 539 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 7: call me not in the clear just yet. Though they 540 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:05,520 Speaker 7: are celebrating, I've seen some statements out there. 541 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 1: You nailed it there analyzing it, Kaylee, most people are 542 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,959 Speaker 1: not going to get to the essence. They're just going 543 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,360 Speaker 1: to see the headline of it being dismissed and they're 544 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: going to think it means that on the merits there 545 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 1: was not a claim that was actionable brought against them, 546 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: And so I think that's important to kind of. 547 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: Work through all this. 548 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 1: Let's go a little bit of a different direction with you, 549 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 1: and we're going to get to the Whispering Angel controversy. 550 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 2: Don't worry. 551 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: I appreciate your dad. What did you make of Marjorie 552 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,360 Speaker 1: Taylor Green's announcement? How surprised were. 553 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 2: You buy it? 554 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 1: Where does she go from here? What is the significance 555 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: of the video and her resignation? 556 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 7: Well with unsurprising in that when President Trump withdrew his endorsement, 557 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 7: looks she was going to face a primary challenge, and 558 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 7: she might not have been successful in that endeavor. We 559 00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 7: know President Trump has quite some sway with the rep 560 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 7: look in base. She knew she was up against that. 561 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 7: There is a trajectory and a history of individuals who 562 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 7: have fallen out with the president. Getting that primary challenge, 563 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 7: it makes it a lot harder to pass laws through 564 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 7: Congress because there is such a narrow majority. I was 565 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 7: reading reporting and I think punchful that there are some 566 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 7: other frustrated members of Congress on the Republican delegation side 567 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,960 Speaker 7: that might consider stepping aside as well, and what a 568 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 7: travesty that would be. Then we could be looking at 569 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 7: potentially you lose enough. See it's just a handful. You 570 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 7: could turn the majority of the House of Representatives over 571 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,160 Speaker 7: to the Democrats just by virtue of retirement or people 572 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 7: stepping aside. So let's pray it doesn't come to that, 573 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,239 Speaker 7: because at the end of the day, all of these 574 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 7: congressman needs to look in the mirror and realize what's 575 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,280 Speaker 7: best for the country. Staying on board that people put 576 00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 7: you there for a reason stay for the long haul, 577 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 7: because it's about the agenda you support and not your 578 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 7: personal self interest. 579 00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 2: Kelly, we have a focus, and I know the administration 580 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,200 Speaker 2: is looking at this now more as well. On the 581 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 2: price of things, there's real concern out there for people 582 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:04,239 Speaker 2: who are just seeing the price of hamburger meat, the 583 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 2: price of gasoline, their rent, electricity, specially electricity along the 584 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: East Eastern Corridor the East coast because of a lot 585 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 2: of the AI data center stuff that's going up now. 586 00:31:17,160 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 2: So what do you think do you think that the 587 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 2: Republican messaging on this is where it needs to be. 588 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 2: Do you see there a growing focus on this? How 589 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 2: would you assess it? 590 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 7: I think they're getting there, and I think it's a 591 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 7: really important imperative that that they do get to the 592 00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 7: right spot. And I've seen Bess and others out there saying, look, 593 00:31:35,320 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 7: we are not denying that there is an issue with affordability. 594 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 7: We're not going to be the Biden administration that say, 595 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 7: you know, oh, there's no problem, move on, you know, 596 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 7: nothing to see here. We're going to acknowledge it, but 597 00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,760 Speaker 7: also at the same time acknowledge we have the working solution. 598 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 7: Here's the fact. Presidents Trump handed President Biden one point 599 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 7: eight percent inflation. Biden took that to nine point one percent. 600 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 7: Trump has since brought it down to in the three percentage. 601 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:03,440 Speaker 7: Prices are a little bit lagging there, but I love 602 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 7: that we have an administration with creative solutions. I talked 603 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 7: to Scott Turner, the head of Housing and Urban Development. 604 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 7: He's like, look, we're looking at these fifty year mortgages, 605 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 7: we're looking at portable mortgages. And I said, you know, 606 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 7: we can debate the efficacy of each of those things, 607 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,640 Speaker 7: but you have an administration I'm constantly putting out new ideas, 608 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 7: be it on housing or healthcare, sending money directly to 609 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 7: the people. We could debate each and every one of these, 610 00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,920 Speaker 7: but they're trying. They have solutions that are working. We 611 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 7: see that with gas prices coming down, and I think 612 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 7: we're going to be in a different place about a 613 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 7: year from now. No tax on tips is in, no 614 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 7: tax on overtime will kick in. And I think Democrats 615 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 7: needs may be surprised at what happens in the midterms 616 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 7: because boomerang back at them, because people do remember the bideneers, 617 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:44,280 Speaker 7: and make no mistake, Trump's going to remind them of them. 618 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: Kaylee, there's a good article in the Wall Street Journal 619 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: I was reading this morning, and I was curious when 620 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,959 Speaker 1: we were going to have you on what your thoughts 621 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 1: are on it. It's about women and the idea of 622 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: seasons of life. And you and I both went to 623 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: law school, and obviously if you go to law school 624 00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: and you start practicing law, that takes a decent amount 625 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 1: of time. You've got young kids. Now, there are a 626 00:33:08,800 --> 00:33:10,880 Speaker 1: lot of women that I went to law school with 627 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: that went hard into practicing law and they had difficulty 628 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: balancing out when to have kids. I know Buck talked 629 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,280 Speaker 1: about this last week because it's becoming even more and 630 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: more of a big topic. What would you tell young 631 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 1: women out there when it comes to prioritizing career and 632 00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 1: balancing it with kids and age and everything that you 633 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 1: have learned, given the fact that you went to law 634 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:36,000 Speaker 1: school too. 635 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 7: Absolutely, what I say is you can have it all. 636 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 7: Is it a harder path, absolutely to be a working mom, 637 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 7: no doubt about it, But you find a way. And 638 00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 7: if God put that desire on your heart to have 639 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,239 Speaker 7: a child, it is there for a reason. And if 640 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 7: you put a desire on your heart to be a 641 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 7: working mom. That's there for a reason too. And one 642 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:56,440 Speaker 7: thing I would note a great example is Erica Kirk 643 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 7: and I saw an interview last night. She did noted 644 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,080 Speaker 7: that her and Charlie Kirk wanted to have four children, 645 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 7: and unfortunately Charlie Kirk was taken way too soon. She 646 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,840 Speaker 7: has two children, young children now. And she said that 647 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 7: she was praying to God that she was pregnant with 648 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 7: her third child at the time of his passing, and 649 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 7: opportuentally she wasn't.

I have a whole press rollout plan 682 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 7: for Clay on this, and you know I'm a former 683 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,800 Speaker 7: press secretary, so I'm good at press rollouts. And Jesse's 684 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 7: team came to me and asked for the picture of 685 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 7: Clay drinking whispering Angel. I told jesse Waters team, no, no, 686 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 7: no, no no, I've got a rollout plan for this. It's 687 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 7: going to come out just at the right time. My 688 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 7: dad was so disappointed, drinking bourbon by the campfire.

And his girlfriend Donnia said, yeah, it's pink. 692 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,879 Speaker 7: It's a woman's drink. He's drinking that. What is wrong 693 00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:22,200 Speaker 7: with this man? But my dad has been your greatest defender, Clay. 694 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 7: My dad's walking around the house go and Clay wrote 695 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 7: a book called Balls.

By the way, last question 739 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:34,200 Speaker 1: for you, and I'm not pleased about the media campaign 740 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:39,160 Speaker 1: attacking my drinking character that is coming. Were you surprised 741 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 1: by the Mom Donnie Trump interaction in the White House 742 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: or did you totally anticipate that based on your experience 743 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 1: working with Trump in the White House. 744 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,040 Speaker 7: So I did not think it would be hostile. I 745 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 7: did not think it would be like the Zelenski meeting. 746 00:38:53,719 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 7: I was surprised at just how cordial it was. But 747 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 7: then I sat back and I thought about it, and 748 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 7: I have watched man Donald Trump plays four dimensional chess constantly. 749 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 7: He's not someone who can be, you know, flattered. You 750 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 7: may think he's been flattered, and you know he's praising 751 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 7: someone because of that flattery. He always has a plan, 752 00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,960 Speaker 7: So sit back, hang tight. I was surprised at how 753 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 7: complimentary it was. But you just wait, you just wait. 754 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 7: I noticed. I'll just say this, mom. Donnie was pressed 755 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 7: on whether Trump said I won't send federal troops to 756 00:39:22,960 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 7: your city, federal law enforcement, I should say, and he 757 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 7: would not say that. President Trump said that, so I 758 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,080 Speaker 7: think there might have been some harsher words behind the scenes. 759 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:32,279 Speaker 7: And you just wait see Trump's next chest move. 760 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 1: Outstanding stuff.

It's gonna sound 824 00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,000 Speaker 1: a little little fru through. But my eighth grade class 825 00:42:56,040 --> 00:42:58,640 Speaker 1: trip was to Italy, So there you gow Well. I 826 00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: had never been to Italy till a couple of years ago. 827 00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: I was out last week's super secret move. Got to 828 00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: go set up a meeting with the Pope, got to 829 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: hang out with the mbath. 830 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 2: It was an awesome trip. 831 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: We got to tour the Vatican Buck after hours and 832 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: so we were the only people in the Sistine Chapel 833 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:21,520 Speaker 1: which if you I've been before, there's usually hundreds of people, 834 00:43:22,320 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 1: and we got a special tour going through the Vatican. 835 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 2: It was it was awesome. 836 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:33,240 Speaker 1: The number of so maps that they have in the Vatican. 837 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: You know, one of the things that the Vatican used 838 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: to be so powerful for for those of you out 839 00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:40,080 Speaker 1: there that are history nerds, like both Buck and myself are. 840 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:44,160 Speaker 1: If you study history, one of the things that was 841 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 1: the most valuable back in the day was accurate maps, 842 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 1: particularly of the New World, and that was considered to 843 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,560 Speaker 1: be basically the state secrets of the era. How do 844 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:59,360 Speaker 1: you get to the Spice Islands? I love that whole area. 845 00:43:59,440 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 1: That era, the age of Exploration. We got to go 846 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: tour and see a bunch of maps, Buck, that were 847 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 1: made almost immediately up on Columbus's discovery of America. And 848 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,240 Speaker 1: being able to look at those maps that were drafted 849 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,800 Speaker 1: in the fourteen nineties that they kept in the Vatican, 850 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 1: or that the Vatican eventually had ended up in control of, 851 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:26,400 Speaker 1: think about how valuable that asset was. 852 00:44:26,520 --> 00:44:27,440 Speaker 2: The maps of. 853 00:44:27,320 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: The world, in many ways were the most valuable intelligence 854 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:32,800 Speaker 1: of that era. 855 00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 2: So since we're just totally nerding out here, Clay, my 856 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 2: official genealogist who did this whole family thing. My son's 857 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 2: name is Speed. It's because Speed is a family name. 858 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:46,600 Speaker 2: The Speed Museum in Kentucky, by the way, the same line, 859 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,759 Speaker 2: and we are very much descendants of that. So I'm 860 00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 2: actually Kentuckian on one side. There you go something new 861 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 2: for people. And John Speed, who was the chief cartographer 862 00:44:57,080 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 2: for Queen Elizabeth I in the early sixteen hundred, is 863 00:45:00,719 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 2: a direct descendant and his descendants that came to America 864 00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 2: became the speech last Sexton family. So my son is 865 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 2: named for a guy who made really good maps for 866 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 2: the Queen of England in the early sixteen hundreds. Boom, 867 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 2: that's all around. 868 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 1: That's a heck of a connection. I just it was 869 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,839 Speaker 1: an amazing trip. And I think I said this when 870 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,480 Speaker 1: we came back. The first time I went to Italy 871 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,319 Speaker 1: was a couple of years ago. We also got to 872 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:31,560 Speaker 1: go to to tour what I think is maybe the 873 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 1: most the most I mean, look, there are tons of 874 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 1: incredible parts of Italy. We're in the coliseum, which is 875 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:39,399 Speaker 1: for someone who is a fan of sports, I mean 876 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 1: basically the beginning and the foundation of every of every 877 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 1: aspect of the of the entire sports industry. 878 00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 2: He used to feed Christians to the lions there though, 879 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 2: Saint Clay, So we don't we don't like that part 880 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 2: of it. 881 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,160 Speaker 1: But a little bit, a little bit of a downside 882 00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:57,759 Speaker 1: potentially associated there. 883 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,480 Speaker 2: That's the part that everyone always leaves out about Marcus Aurelius. 884 00:46:00,560 --> 00:46:03,280 Speaker 2: By the way, Oh, he was a stoic in the meditations. 885 00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 2: Meditations a little self indulgence if you ask me. And 886 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 2: also this guy was a huge persecutor of the Christians, 887 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:13,440 Speaker 2: and his son, Commedists, was a psycho, and so he 888 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 2: wasn't a very good dad either, So maybe everybody should 889 00:46:16,120 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 2: stop getting all their lessons from the stoics. I'm just 890 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:19,239 Speaker 2: throwing it out there. 891 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,560 Speaker 1: I haven't ever read the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius. It's 892 00:46:22,600 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 1: actually on my list. Did you read it? 893 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course. I mean it's a lot, it's a 894 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 2: lot of don't even get me started. Meditations is philosophy 895 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,600 Speaker 2: for people who don't want to actually put too much 896 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:39,320 Speaker 2: work into philosophy, right, it sounds like me. Sounds like me, honestly, 897 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,960 Speaker 2: Bill Clinton's Bill Clinton was quoted a second. I think 898 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 2: it was his favorite thing ever written. I'm like, yeah, no, surprise, 899 00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:49,920 Speaker 2: leaves plenty of Tom to chase ladies, not spend a 900 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,719 Speaker 2: lot of Tom actually studying. 901 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 1: I think if you told me, hey, you're gonna have 902 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:57,360 Speaker 1: to spend a lot of time in a philosophy class, 903 00:46:57,440 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 1: I would that does not sound like something that I 904 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,240 Speaker 1: would or want to do. But what I was gonna 905 00:47:02,239 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: say also is I think the coolest, maybe the most 906 00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 1: amazing building is the Pantheon, which is roughly, you know, 907 00:47:10,080 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: two thousand years old. And every time I have the 908 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:17,080 Speaker 1: opportunity to tour a place like that, I can't help 909 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 1: but think just how incredibly young this nation is when 910 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,440 Speaker 1: you think about it in the context of Greece, Rome. 911 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 1: Certainly last year I was over in Israel. You know, 912 00:47:29,040 --> 00:47:31,680 Speaker 1: the things that we consider to be super old here 913 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:35,839 Speaker 1: are a pinprick of time and much of the quote 914 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:38,280 Speaker 1: unquote old world. So I hope people get the opportunity 915 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 1: to go over there. Thank you to the Vatican ambassador 916 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:44,640 Speaker 1: Brian Birch and Italy's ambassador Tilman Fertida. We had great 917 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:48,280 Speaker 1: times with they and their families. Awesome people, great choices 918 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 1: by the Trump administration. Okay, I want to get your 919 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,879 Speaker 1: take on this buck because we haven't really talked about 920 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 1: it that much. We talked a lot about the race 921 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 1: that's going on. Encourage all of you in the Tennessee 922 00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,839 Speaker 1: seventh Congressional District to get out and vote. Matt van 923 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,560 Speaker 1: Epps was with us. Kaylee Mcanany was with us last hour, 924 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 1: and we opened the show talking about the Trump mom 925 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:11,759 Speaker 1: Donnie Brofest, what is your take on Marjorie Taylor Green's 926 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 1: decision to give up her congressional seat starting in January. 927 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 1: Is this some sort of super stupendous move that she 928 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:23,759 Speaker 1: is making in the political stratosphere. Did she just get 929 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 1: upset at criticism from Trump and there's not much else 930 00:48:26,560 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 1: to it? My understanding is she's wealthy, she doesn't need 931 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:32,799 Speaker 1: to have a job. What is going on here as 932 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 1: you see it? 933 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 2: I'll be honest. I mean, I follow this in so 934 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:38,359 Speaker 2: far as it's our job to know what's going on 935 00:48:38,440 --> 00:48:40,640 Speaker 2: in the news. But I started to put this a 936 00:48:40,680 --> 00:48:44,279 Speaker 2: little bit into the personal squabble category where somebody has 937 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:47,399 Speaker 2: some kind of a beef with Trump and then they 938 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:49,200 Speaker 2: get into a little bit of a back and forth, 939 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 2: and it's just hard for me to spend that much 940 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 2: time and intellectual energy on this. That said, I think 941 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:01,600 Speaker 2: there are people who find it to be worthy of discussion. 942 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 2: So I mean, I'll just say this. She seemed to 943 00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 2: be getting a little wacko recently. Little some of the 944 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:10,400 Speaker 2: stuff she was saying was a little lot of whacko. 945 00:49:10,520 --> 00:49:12,840 Speaker 2: Let's be honest, A lot of that going around these days. 946 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,399 Speaker 2: Maybe a lot of that going around these days. And 947 00:49:16,560 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what's really happened. And this is uh 948 00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 2: And you know, by the way, don't don't like do 949 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,560 Speaker 2: the thing that people do. I'm not naming anybody because 950 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:26,640 Speaker 2: I don't want to get into any of the personal squabbles. 951 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 2: We talk about ideas and news here and we're here 952 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 2: for you for this audience, not here for someone else's 953 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,319 Speaker 2: audience to get into some back and forth and help 954 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,720 Speaker 2: their ratings or whatever. We're here for you. We serve 955 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:42,319 Speaker 2: you Russia's audience that he built over decades. And I 956 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:45,000 Speaker 2: would just say, there's a there's a little bit of 957 00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:47,759 Speaker 2: a disconcerting thing, Clay, where people are getting crazier and 958 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:53,520 Speaker 2: crazier and somehow it's being rewarded in the on the 959 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 2: American right, and that's not a good thing. This is 960 00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,879 Speaker 2: not this is not good. Attention does not equal right, 961 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,400 Speaker 2: Attention does not equal clicks. A lot of people get 962 00:50:04,440 --> 00:50:07,000 Speaker 2: into this. Clicks and downloads and all that are not 963 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:12,680 Speaker 2: actually the most important currency in what we do. It's important, 964 00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:14,879 Speaker 2: you know, if you don't have anyone listening, it doesn't 965 00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 2: really matter what you say if you're going to do this. 966 00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 2: But if you're getting crazy out there and you're turning 967 00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 2: on people who have stood with you, and you're turning, 968 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:24,760 Speaker 2: I mean, look, I'll just give you a perfect example. 969 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 2: I found it deeply sad that Dick Cheney endorsed Kamalaw 970 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 2: and then at his funeral had a bunch of communists 971 00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,840 Speaker 2: destroying everything he ever stood for. I think that's a 972 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:39,759 Speaker 2: really sad legacy, on top of the legacy of the 973 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:42,240 Speaker 2: bad Wars and everything else. But I'm just at least, 974 00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:44,319 Speaker 2: go out with your principles, man, at least go out 975 00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 2: like guys. I thought I was doing the right thing, 976 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,560 Speaker 2: but I stood for something. He did the wrong thing, 977 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:51,640 Speaker 2: and then he sold everything out. And I just can't 978 00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:54,600 Speaker 2: think of a sadder thing than that in your final 979 00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 2: years to do. And I just see a lot of 980 00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 2: people right now who are getting a lot of attention 981 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 2: and everything else. And like I said, I'm not going 982 00:51:00,840 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 2: to get into any individuals because I don't care. But 983 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:07,520 Speaker 2: they're saying crazy stuff that sells out what they have 984 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:11,439 Speaker 2: stood for before. And they can either explain that, which 985 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:13,719 Speaker 2: I haven't seen a lot of or people should see 986 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 2: it for what it is, which is just attention and 987 00:51:15,560 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 2: money seeking. Uh And and I think that that's a shame. 988 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:20,719 Speaker 2: I don't like. I don't like what I'm seeing. The 989 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:22,800 Speaker 2: trend is not is not our friend right now. 990 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 1: Here's this is the big trend that I have an 991 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 1: issue with. And I think Marjorie Taylor Green has in 992 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 1: some way gotten caught up in the in the chaos 993 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:38,520 Speaker 1: there in a social media era, there is almost no 994 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:44,200 Speaker 1: consequence for being wrong. All that matters is do people 995 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 1: pay attention to what you're saying? And I'll give you 996 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:50,279 Speaker 1: an example. You and I came on this program and 997 00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:53,959 Speaker 1: I think have been proven correct when we said, hey, 998 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 1: striking Iran is going to be a good decision that 999 00:51:58,280 --> 00:52:01,319 Speaker 1: will help to bring stability to the Middle East. I 1000 00:52:01,320 --> 00:52:04,200 Speaker 1: think you're seeing potentially with Saudi Arabia coming in on 1001 00:52:04,239 --> 00:52:07,560 Speaker 1: the Abraham Accords. I think President Trump was one hundred 1002 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 1: percent right on that choice. Now, there was a debate 1003 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:14,319 Speaker 1: out there. There was a huge debate out there about 1004 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 1: whether it was the right decision to strike Iran or not. 1005 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,000 Speaker 1: I think that was a smart debate to have. 1006 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:21,359 Speaker 4: Right. 1007 00:52:21,600 --> 00:52:26,200 Speaker 1: Everybody's not right on every issue. But if you said, hey, 1008 00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:29,800 Speaker 1: if we strike Iran, world War three is going to happen, 1009 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:33,000 Speaker 1: and then we struck Iran and World War three did 1010 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:35,959 Speaker 1: not happen and there were virtually no consequences. In fact, Buck, 1011 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 1: I think I'm correct in saying not one single American 1012 00:52:39,880 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 1: soldier was even harmed by US striking Iran. I think 1013 00:52:44,200 --> 00:52:47,359 Speaker 1: I'm correcting that right. Not only was world War three 1014 00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 1: not happen, as far from world War three as you 1015 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:52,680 Speaker 1: could actually go occurred, and in fact, I think more 1016 00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,480 Speaker 1: stability to the Middle East and safety and security and 1017 00:52:55,560 --> 00:53:01,400 Speaker 1: peace was the result. Well, what happens. Then there's not 1018 00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:03,719 Speaker 1: a consequence for being wrong. And if you come on 1019 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:05,880 Speaker 1: and you say, hey, guess what I was wrong. I 1020 00:53:05,920 --> 00:53:08,359 Speaker 1: say this all the time. I got the twenty twenty 1021 00:53:08,360 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 1: two election wrong. 1022 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:10,360 Speaker 2: On this show. I thought we were going to have 1023 00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,920 Speaker 2: a huge red wave. I was wrong. I got it wrong. 1024 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:14,120 Speaker 2: You come on, you own it. 1025 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:17,160 Speaker 1: Nobody's going to be perfect in every piece of analysis, 1026 00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:21,360 Speaker 1: but it seems there's actually far from consequences for being wrong, 1027 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:24,760 Speaker 1: there's actually an incentive to be crazy, and it actually 1028 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: is paying really well. And we may be the sanest 1029 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,360 Speaker 1: show on radio, which maybe the sayest show in America. 1030 00:53:31,160 --> 00:53:34,200 Speaker 1: I wonder about that though, right when crazy is a 1031 00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 1: reward that makes me think that we're in a really 1032 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:38,600 Speaker 1: dangerous place. 1033 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,319 Speaker 2: And this ties into because we are capitalists. Here my book, 1034 00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:45,000 Speaker 2: which I hope you'll pre order, Manufacturing Delusion, which is 1035 00:53:45,000 --> 00:53:49,400 Speaker 2: about how you create madness and weaponize it for politics, 1036 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: which is going on all the time. It's happening a 1037 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,920 Speaker 2: little bit on our side. There is a manufacturing of 1038 00:53:54,960 --> 00:53:58,439 Speaker 2: delusion that is happening on the right. So please go 1039 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 2: pre order the book. Be a Balls already on the shelves, 1040 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:05,920 Speaker 2: and then pre order Manufacturing Delusion, and uh, because it's 1041 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:07,799 Speaker 2: got to get those those pre order numbers up or 1042 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 2: else they just don't make enough books, uh, Clay, I 1043 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:15,760 Speaker 2: think uh. Part of this also is that the disaggregation 1044 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,200 Speaker 2: and conservative and right wing media. I'll just be honest. 1045 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,080 Speaker 2: It used to be there was there was Rush, and 1046 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 2: then there was Fox News, and then there was kind 1047 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,439 Speaker 2: of everything else, you know. I mean, there was and 1048 00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 2: and so there were kind of the the biggest, baddest 1049 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 2: guys on the block that enforced I think some degree 1050 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,400 Speaker 2: of what the the guardrails were just in, you know, 1051 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 2: and obviously Sean had a huge radio show, huge show 1052 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:40,640 Speaker 2: at Fox. I mean, there's people that are all that 1053 00:54:40,719 --> 00:54:43,560 Speaker 2: were all the the elder statesman of the party. But 1054 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 2: it's become so disaggregated now in the podcast era that 1055 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:51,640 Speaker 2: people are are chasing a lot of a lot of 1056 00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:56,400 Speaker 2: audience I think by being increasingly just out there because 1057 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:59,200 Speaker 2: that's what we'll get attention online. It's very hard to 1058 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 2: get attention online in these days because there are so 1059 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 2: many options, so I think the incentives are kind of 1060 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:07,600 Speaker 2: in the wrong direction. But also my bigger philosophical point 1061 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 2: on this, and we weren't even planning to really talk 1062 00:55:09,040 --> 00:55:11,280 Speaker 2: about this that much. We can talk about the pending 1063 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 2: coup in Venezuela later, but my bigger point on this, 1064 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:18,920 Speaker 2: Clay is, I think because the Trump movement has been 1065 00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:22,959 Speaker 2: so successful and it feels like our political enemies are 1066 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:27,520 Speaker 2: so routed at least temporarily keep saying it it's temporary, 1067 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,080 Speaker 2: that now there's a lot of infighting that's happening on 1068 00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:33,520 Speaker 2: the right, that's much more about It's much more ego 1069 00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 2: driven than it is mission driven, I will say that, 1070 00:55:35,560 --> 00:55:39,520 Speaker 2: And I find that disconcerting because there are a lot 1071 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:41,359 Speaker 2: of people who will never have to work another day 1072 00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:43,680 Speaker 2: in their life and never have to worry about, you know, 1073 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:45,759 Speaker 2: paying the bills for themselves, their kids or their kids, 1074 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:48,919 Speaker 2: kids kids, because they stood with the movement and sure 1075 00:55:48,920 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 2: they built up a successful program or whatever it is. 1076 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:54,719 Speaker 2: They have an obligation not to do things that tear 1077 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:57,719 Speaker 2: the country down now, and they have an obligation, I think, 1078 00:55:57,840 --> 00:56:01,920 Speaker 2: to stay on the team that brought us to this 1079 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 2: point and not start going crazy out there. So that's 1080 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 2: just how I feel about it. Again, no names, don't 1081 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,600 Speaker 2: tag me with names. So is this who you're talking about? 1082 00:56:11,280 --> 00:56:15,120 Speaker 2: I just I just don't want craziness on our side. 1083 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:21,680 Speaker 2: That's not factual, that's not reasonable. Because then this gives 1084 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 2: a lot of breathing room, a lot of oxygen for 1085 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:24,640 Speaker 2: the left to come back and be like, look at 1086 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,360 Speaker 2: how crazy they are. Yeah, we used to be crazy, Clay, 1087 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:30,960 Speaker 2: but now we're focused on affordability. Now we just care 1088 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 2: about healthcare and affordability. While they're squabbling over Marjorie Taylor Green. 1089 00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,200 Speaker 2: I don't like it, I think. 1090 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:41,960 Speaker 1: As well said, and it's increasingly becoming, I think, an issue, 1091 00:56:41,960 --> 00:56:45,200 Speaker 1: and it's going to be distracting, and as the midterms 1092 00:56:45,200 --> 00:56:48,080 Speaker 1: come around. I do think one of the subtexts of 1093 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:51,239 Speaker 1: Trump Mom Donnie is Trump is recognizing that people are 1094 00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:54,520 Speaker 1: very frustrated about what goods cost, and that, to a 1095 00:56:54,600 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: large extent, twenty twenty six is probably going to be 1096 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 1: a referendum on whether people think goods are affordable or not. 1097 00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,000 Speaker 1: He's fixed the border crime, as we talked about already 1098 00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:09,600 Speaker 1: on the program, is coming down substantially. But I said 1099 00:57:09,640 --> 00:57:12,680 Speaker 1: it the other day. Things just cost way more than 1100 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:13,600 Speaker 1: you think they should. 1101 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:14,720 Speaker 2: And I was at. 1102 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:17,520 Speaker 1: Subway again last night with my fifteen year old and 1103 00:57:17,600 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 1: I dropped, this time twenty eight bucks on a couple 1104 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,439 Speaker 1: of Subway meals. And that seems high to me, and 1105 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: I think a lot of you feel that every time 1106 00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: you buy goods out there. Big things happening at Legacy 1107 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 1: Box this week.
