1 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. So 2 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 1: Michael Very show is on the air. 3 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 2: The number one question I have received from listeners across 4 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:37,280 Speaker 2: the land is why is your boy Ted Cruz with 5 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 2: John Thune instead of Rick Scott. I offered Ted Cruz 6 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,400 Speaker 2: this morning the opportunity to be on the show and 7 00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,639 Speaker 2: answer for the rumor that he is with John Thune 8 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:59,080 Speaker 2: in wednesdays vote, and I have not heard back. That 9 00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: I have not heard back does not necessarily mean he's 10 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 2: hiding or he doesn't want to answer. Some days I'll 11 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 2: get an answer in thirty seconds. Sometimes it might take 12 00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 2: a day or two. I'm not necessarily reading anything extra 13 00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:21,319 Speaker 2: into that. If you were to ask me to guess 14 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,679 Speaker 2: why he's with Thune instead of Rick Scott, it would 15 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:31,280 Speaker 2: be as follows. This does not justify it. Understand that 16 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: some people struggle with that. I'm telling you what I 17 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 2: think his reasoning likely is not that I think that's 18 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 2: a good thing. You don't need to say to me, 19 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: as many of you will say, well, that's not a 20 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 2: good reason. I didn't say it was. I said, I 21 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 2: think that's what the reason is. I suspect that Ted 22 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 2: Cruz has made a calculation that he wants to be 23 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 2: with the winner. The Senate majority leader has the ability, 24 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 2: maybe not to make or break a senator, but he 25 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: can help a senator a whole lot more or a 26 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 2: whole lot less than he does another. Ted Cruz has 27 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 2: been on the ouns for the twelve years that he's 28 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,919 Speaker 2: been in the Senate. I know because I was instrumental 29 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,799 Speaker 2: in getting him elected in twenty twelve, along with other people. 30 00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: But I was very involved. And he'll tell you that 31 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 2: from the moment he came in as a tea Party Republican, 32 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 2: John McCain was cutting him off at the knees. Lindsey 33 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 2: Graham was cutting him off at the knees. John Cornyn 34 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: was cutting him off of the knees. And that's why 35 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:51,079 Speaker 2: they would make statements like nobody in the Senate likes 36 00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 2: Ted Cruz. That's all I needed to know. I don't 37 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 2: trust anybody who Republicans senators like, because that means you're 38 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:08,679 Speaker 2: a sellout. You see when Dick Cheney or Liz Cheney 39 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: or anybody on CNN or Lindsey Graham tells you that 40 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 2: somebody's not well liked, you know what that means. That 41 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 2: means they've stood up, they spoke out. They have a 42 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 2: sense of pride and patriotism. You know who else isn't 43 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: like Donald Trump. So my suspicion is Trump Cruz got 44 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 2: there and there would be votes that he would vote 45 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 2: against some wasteful spending or some stupid bill, and it 46 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: would be ninety nine to one, and so they couldn't 47 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: say it was unanimous, and they hated him for it. 48 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 2: Then he runs for president in twenty sixteen and the 49 00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 2: fellow senators, they absolutely gutted him, gets re elected in 50 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: twenty eighteen. He didn't get national support for that because, frankly, 51 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 2: the Republicans, led by John Cornyn, would rather Ted Cruz 52 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:17,039 Speaker 2: go away. So now fast forward to twenty twenty four. 53 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 2: Ted Cruz has a fortune spent against him by Californians. 54 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 2: The Senate Republican Fund wouldn't help him raise any money 55 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: because McConnell would rather he lose. He really would. McConnell 56 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 2: and Cornyn would rather Ted Cruz lose than Ted CRU's 57 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 2: win and hold onto that seat because they don't like 58 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 2: to be questioned, challenged or contradicted. So there's Ted Cruz 59 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: twelve years in saying Rick Scott would be this best 60 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: Senate majority leader. Cornyn is a swamp creacher. I don't 61 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,599 Speaker 2: want Cornan to win because it'll just be more of 62 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 2: Mitch McConnell. So my compromise candidate is John Thune. Now 63 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 2: if you look at where the claim is. Now these 64 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: are leaked lists, it's not certain this is true. But 65 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: if you look at the fact that that Thune has 66 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:26,040 Speaker 2: twenty four, Cornon is said to have eighteen, and Rick 67 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: Scott is at eleven, Counting votes is very important. You've 68 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 2: got to know how to count votes. So out of 69 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 2: those fifty three votes, Rick Scott only has about twenty 70 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 2: percent of them. Thune is almost at half. If the 71 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 2: Cornon and Scott folks joined forces, they won't but if 72 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 2: they did, they'd be at twenty nine and they could 73 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 2: beat Thune. If the Cornon folks join Thune, the race 74 00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 2: is over and they know that. But the moment that 75 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 2: Thune you see, what you want to do is be 76 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 2: the holdout if you want to be with the winner, 77 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 2: because if everybody voted at exactly the same time and 78 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: you didn't know how anybody else was going to vote, 79 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 2: the returns would be very different. But the moment that 80 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: you see Thune Let's say you know, Scott's got eleven 81 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 2: votes and this is how many Thunes got, which by deduction, 82 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 2: Corning can't beat Thune. So at that moment, there are 83 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 2: people that say, well, I don't want Rick Scott. He's 84 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: the grassroots guy, and Thune's pulled ahead. I want to 85 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: be with the winner, so I'll go with Thune. That 86 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 2: is my guess as to what Ted Cruz did. Now, 87 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: would I rather he support Rick Scott and take Thune 88 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: down to twenty three and Scott up to twelve, Yes, 89 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 2: I would. I'd rather Rick Scott be in the driver's 90 00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 2: seat right now. But what you're seeing is the backroom deals, 91 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: the horse swapping of your dollars and your policies and 92 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 2: committee chairmanships and all the things that go with that. 93 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 2: And Cornyn is a master of it. Cornyn is a 94 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: master because what Cornyn will do, and I'll give you 95 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 2: a good example coming up in the next segment of 96 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 2: how a swamp creature like John Cornyn operates. How when 97 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: you look at the votes as they're tallied on c 98 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: SPAN or the next day in the news, you go, oh, 99 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 2: John Cornyan voted the right way on this bill. We lost, 100 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 2: but he voted the right way. But what you don't 101 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: know is that he insured that there would be a 102 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 2: vote on that issue so that it could pass, and 103 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: then he votes properly for his home folks in Texas. 104 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 2: So the bill passes, which is what he wanted for 105 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: the lobby and he's on the record as voting against it, 106 00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: but he helped get it pass. Lox flame point. 107 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:22,160 Speaker 3: Is there a way to carry out mass deportation without 108 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 3: separating families? 109 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: The Michael Barry show. Of course, families can be deported 110 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 2: together unless you follow the internal operations of the United 111 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 2: States Senate. Most people will have a belief. People will 112 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 2: ask me all the time, what does Cornon do wrong? 113 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 2: Why do you dislike Cornin so much? I served on 114 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 2: Houston City Council for six years, and city council is 115 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: just a tiny little microcosm of the United States Senate. 116 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: There are people who will do things in a legislative 117 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 2: that will pass an issue or kill an issue while 118 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,959 Speaker 2: voting apparently for the opposite side. And they do this 119 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 2: so they're still popular with their base, but they make 120 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 2: the lobbyists happy. So let me give you an example. 121 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 2: You've probably heard of the term cloture all bills in 122 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 2: the United States Senate need to pass through cloture. Cloture 123 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 2: is the vote that will end debate on the bill. 124 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 2: So a filibuster would mean that we just keep the 125 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 2: debate open forever. We never actually have a vote, right 126 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:46,080 Speaker 2: whenever it come to any conclusion. Well, at some point 127 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 2: there's a call for cloture, and that means, all right, 128 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: let's vote now. In order to get an actual vote 129 00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:57,360 Speaker 2: on an issue, you have to pass the cloture vote otherwise. 130 00:09:57,400 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 2: This is where the whole end of filibuster comes into 131 00:09:59,920 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 2: a in fact, so here's what John Cornyn will do. 132 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: Let's say a bill makes it through the Senate committee, 133 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: something along the lines of say Obamacare. That is a 134 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 2: terrible bill and no Republican should vote for it or 135 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 2: they will be at risk in their home state of 136 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 2: being voted out. But they want to vote for it 137 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 2: because the lobbyists want them to vote for it. So 138 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: during the debate this all comes out. It's why they 139 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: don't like these things to be debated in open court, 140 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:40,960 Speaker 2: in open session. So the GOP, because the base is 141 00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:45,360 Speaker 2: making them lines up in opposition, so they all have 142 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 2: to pledge. Because the little old ladies back home say 143 00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:50,680 Speaker 2: you better be against that, and they get the phone 144 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:56,120 Speaker 2: lines buzzy. All right, So Chuck Schumer wants this issue 145 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: to get a vote. In order to move that bill 146 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: to a vote, sixty senators must vote to invoke cloture. Now, 147 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: you may only have fifty votes, and then you've got 148 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 2: Kamala Harris as the vice president. She can break the tie. 149 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 2: So you don't even have a majority, but the vice 150 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 2: president will break the tie. So the Republicans can keep 151 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: that issue from ever coming to a vote because you 152 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 2: have to have more than it takes to pass it 153 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 2: in order to get your sixty vote cloture. Okay, so 154 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 2: Republicans can have only forty one members and they can 155 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 2: keep issues from getting to the table. So that gives 156 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: some power to the minority. You just filibuster. But what 157 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 2: happens is there are squish Republicans who, at Mitch McConnell's direction, 158 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 2: will vote for cloture, which means, yes, we will allow 159 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: a vote on this issue. We vote for cloture. Stop talking, 160 00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 2: stop filibustering, put this thing to a vote. Well, if 161 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 2: you wanted to kill the bill, you would never have 162 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 2: voted for cloture. Because if you never vote for clulture, 163 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 2: they never get to consider the bill. See what I'm saying. 164 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: So all they have to have is ten Republicans to 165 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 2: break from the fifty Republicans and vote for cloture. So 166 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: John Cornyn will go and look and say, all right, 167 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 2: it's a six year term. Hey, Senator Smith, Senator Jones, 168 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 2: you're not up for election for four more years. People 169 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 2: will forget by that. We need you to vote for cloture. 170 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,280 Speaker 2: So this thing will come up to a vote and 171 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 2: it can be passed. Now, if you got a Republican 172 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 2: who's in a fifty to fifty race, he can't vote 173 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 2: for cloture because enough Republican grassroots folks know what this 174 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:04,439 Speaker 2: game is. So Cornyon's job, under the direction of McConnell, 175 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 2: is he goes and picks who are the ten Republicans 176 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 2: who are safest to vote for cloture. Well, Cornyn is 177 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:15,120 Speaker 2: safe because he sits on a war chest. You can 178 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 2: only beat him in a primary. We're not going to 179 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:19,960 Speaker 2: send a Democrat up there. So Cornyn will go get 180 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,560 Speaker 2: nine others and they'll vote for cloture. Well, now the 181 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: bills come, they already know they have a majority, or 182 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 2: they have fifty plus the speaker, fifty plus the Vice 183 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 2: president to break the time. So once you vote for cloture, 184 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 2: and there's going to be a vote, you move it 185 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,440 Speaker 2: to the you move it to the floor, and there's 186 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:43,920 Speaker 2: an actual vote. Now in the actual vote, John Cornyan 187 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,360 Speaker 2: does this big thing where he says I'm against it. 188 00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 4: This is a. 189 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 2: Terrible bill, And passive observers, we'll say, Michael, why are 190 00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 2: you beating up on John Cornyn? He voted against it 191 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 2: because what you don't understand is he did what he 192 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 2: needed to do for you to think that he was 193 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 2: voting against it. The bigger issue is now not how 194 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 2: he's marked on the page. The bigger issue is did 195 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 2: Obamacare pass or didn't it? He made sure it passed. 196 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 2: He makes sure Ukraine gets their money. He makes sure 197 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 2: the big bills get passed that give all the money 198 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 2: to the lobbyists. And that's why the lobbyists give him 199 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 2: a war chest. So it's hard as hell to beat 200 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: him in a primary in Texas. This is why Mitch 201 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 2: McConnell gives corn money in his race. This is why 202 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 2: Mitch McConnell wants John Cornyn to be the Senate majority leader, 203 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 2: because these people are very devious. They are very clever 204 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: in playing this game. If you ever saw what they're 205 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 2: actually doing, you'd run, you'd tarn feather them. But they're 206 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 2: very careful. And he may even go on Fox News 207 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 2: the next morning, and he may be he said, Dad, 208 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 2: Gummet Doucy, I'm so worried about this bill. We're gonna 209 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: have to rein in this out of control spending. This 210 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 2: is one of John Cornyn cannot be allowed to be 211 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 2: this to be the customer. 212 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 4: I got a message to demands of illegal amans that 213 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 4: Joe Biden's releasing our country in. 214 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: Violation of federal law. You better start packing out than 215 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 2: Michael Berry. Joe, Sure's you're going hold. Unfortunately, it involves 216 00:15:53,640 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 2: a term I can't say on the air that rhymes 217 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 2: with spit as in to spit your tobacco. And I'll 218 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 2: use the word shot as in two ounces of tequila 219 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 2: or to shoot in the past tense, and you'll know 220 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 2: what I mean. The Kamala Harris campaign could only be 221 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: described as a shot show. And the more we are 222 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: finding out, and this is just the early version, is 223 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 2: it was so dysfunctional. Do you know what I love 224 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 2: about the word dysfunctional. The why instead of the eye 225 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 2: is funny, it's weird, it's awkward. It's like it's dysfunctional. 226 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 2: It's like automatopeia for the eyes. Dysfunctional as a word 227 00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:01,000 Speaker 2: looks like a word that is dysfunctional. The Harris campaign 228 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 2: is a shot show. Over a billion dollars was raised. 229 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say they raised over billion dollars 230 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 2: because actually it's the swamp that raised it. She was 231 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 2: just a candidate. They slapped their logo like a NASCAR driver. 232 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 2: They slapped there, They slapped the money onto her, They 233 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: slapped their logo Democrat candidate onto her. If Joe's health 234 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 2: had held out and magas do you see him at 235 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 2: the beach this weekend? Wow, if Joe's health had held out, 236 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 2: just to touch better, they would have stayed with him. 237 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi is now on the record that this was 238 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 2: all a huge mistake, that there should have been an 239 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 2: open primary, that Biden should have had to win, that 240 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 2: there were other candidates out there. Well, you know the 241 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 2: problem here is Gavin Newsom. You don't have to tell 242 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 2: me how he is or how much you hate him. 243 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:06,120 Speaker 2: Gavin Newsom would have been a candidate who probably would 244 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 2: have beaten Joe Biden. Gavin Newsom weighted in the wings. 245 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 2: It was Biden's to hold on to. It's Jimmy Carter 246 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 2: nineteen eighty all over again. And now Nancy Pelosi is 247 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 2: coming out and saying, you know, he shouldn't have run. 248 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 2: Joe Biden should not have run, and that screwed everything up. 249 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: And then because they smothered him, he decided, you're not 250 00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:42,239 Speaker 2: gonna pick my replacement. I'm gonna pick my replacement. So 251 00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 2: to spite them, goes the story from within, he immediately 252 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 2: endorses Kamala Harris. Well, the media is in on all this. 253 00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 2: That's why when the story started coming in and they're going, uh, 254 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 2: the President has endoored Kamala Harris. Go back and look 255 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 2: at those news reports. You can tell it looks like 256 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 2: that deal where you know you're being held hostage and 257 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 2: the cops come to the door and go, no, there's 258 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 2: nobody behind me behind the door right now with a 259 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 2: gun to my head. I'm just here by myself having 260 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 2: a nice time. This whole thing fell apart, and there 261 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 2: was so much internacon war, and then the Bidens Jill 262 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: got crossways with Kamala Kamala cussed Jill out, but there 263 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 2: is so much of a shot show happening here. Over 264 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 2: a billion dollars was raised. Trump only raised over a 265 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 2: three hundred million because he uses earned media. They don't 266 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 2: buy a bunch of ads. But it turns out that 267 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 2: they blew through the money. They paid staff, hundreds of staffers. 268 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 2: They paid for appearances. The Oprah made a million bucks. 269 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 2: I've heard that Lizzo got paid two and a half 270 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 2: million dollars. Maybe Beyonce got paid to show up, but 271 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 2: not enough to sing. They paid four hundred and fifty 272 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 2: thousand dollars a day for the sphere in Nevada, and 273 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 2: they still lost Nevada. They blew money like Bill Clinton 274 00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 2: at a strip club. It's out of control. So Kristin 275 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 2: Welker opened her show on meat as l Rushbo would 276 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: call it, Meet the Depressed and Crazy. Bernie was on 277 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 2: there and listen to this. 278 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 5: Democrats now grappling with their stunning loss and trying to 279 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 5: figure out what went wrong. 280 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 6: Had the president gotten out sooner, there may been other 281 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 6: candidates in the race, and I think still would have won. 282 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 6: But she may have been stronger having taken her case 283 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 6: to the public. 284 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 2: Sooner. 285 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 5: I think people never got to know Kama Harris during 286 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 5: the time she was in this campaign. 287 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 7: If the goal is to win elections on Twitter, then 288 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 7: you should embrace movements like defund the police. But if 289 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 7: the goal is to win elections in the real world 290 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 7: where it matters, then you have to appeal to working 291 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 7: class people of color. 292 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:31,440 Speaker 8: The party itself has increasingly become a smarty pants, suburban, 293 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 8: college educated party. 294 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 9: I take issue sometimes with people saying, oh, the quote 295 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 9: unquote left is the reason why this has happened. The 296 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 9: ultimate problem is our ability to clearly and forthrightly advocate 297 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:53,400 Speaker 9: for an agenda that clearly champions the working class. 298 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's decision to run for president again was a 299 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: catastrophic mistake, but. 300 00:21:57,160 --> 00:21:59,440 Speaker 10: We can all unite in knowing that Joe Biden would 301 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 10: have lost and becaus there's a lot of blame for 302 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 10: the situation that we're in. 303 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,119 Speaker 2: The amazing part of all this is they still refer 304 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 2: to the working class. They lost the working class a 305 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 2: long time ago, so crazy. Bernie Sanders was asked, should 306 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 2: Democrats be asking themselves the question about their historic loss? 307 00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 8: Bottom line, if you're an average working person out there, 308 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 8: do you really think that the Democratic Party is going 309 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,199 Speaker 8: to the mats, taking on powerful special interest and fighting 310 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,880 Speaker 8: for you. I think the overwhelming answer is no. 311 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 2: And quickly before we go to break, Christen Welker asked him, 312 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 2: should Justice So to my or step down so Joe 313 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 2: Biden can ram through Kamala as her replacement? Give this 314 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 2: a listen, Senator, Quickly, before. 315 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 5: I let you go, I do want to ask you 316 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 5: about the Supreme Court. Some Democrats behind the scenes quietly 317 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 5: talking about the possibility should Justice. 318 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: So do my or step down to allow. 319 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 5: President Biden to appoint someone who's younger, She's only seventy 320 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 5: years old. Is that something that you would support? To 321 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:03,880 Speaker 5: you think she should step down? 322 00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 2: No, I don't have you heard any talk of this. 323 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 2: Tell a little bit. Yes, I don't think that's a 324 00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 2: sensible approach. 325 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 5: And you don't think it's a sensible approach, correct, all right, 326 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 5: Senator Bernie Sanders, thank you very much for your time 327 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 5: this morning and your perspective. 328 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 2: We really appreciate it. They cannot grasp that people among 329 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 2: their ranks that socialist Bernie, think that these are stupid ideas. 330 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 2: They simply cannot grasp you do. It's not until real 331 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: Americans vote that everything these loons say that it's made 332 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 2: clear nobody believes what you're saying, just because you're saying, 333 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: nobody at home is buying.

This wasn't pro Kamala money, this was anti 354 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 2: Donald Trump money. Well where did all the money go? 355 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 2: Lyndy Lee is a campaign advisor.

Actually 366 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 3: it was one billion, eighteen million I think right, they're 367 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 3: twenty million or twenty million or eighteen dollars in debt. 368 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 3: It's incredible, and I raised millions of that. I have 369 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 3: friends that I have to be accountable to and to 370 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 3: explain what happened because I told them it was a 371 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 3: margin of error race. I was promised General Mally Dillon 372 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 3: promised all of us that Harris would win. She even 373 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 3: put videos out saying that Harris would win. I believed her, 374 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 3: My donors believed her, and so they wrote massive checks. 375 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 3: I just I feel like a lot of us were misled. 376 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 3: And even on the night of election night, will I 377 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,199 Speaker 3: looked somebody in the eye and I said, are we 378 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 3: going to do this? Are we going to pull it off? 379 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 3: She told me yes. And I asked somebody else, like, 380 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 3: how are you feeling? He's We're going to win Iowa? 381 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 2: And I was like, you see, did they believe this 382 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 2: going in? 383 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 7: Was was there a real sense of false confidence on 384 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:09,479 Speaker 7: the side of Kamala Harris? 385 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 2: Or did they know they were in store for disaster? 386 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 3: You know, I was wondering about that. I was like, 387 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 3: are you I asked them, are you privated internal numbers 388 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,399 Speaker 3: that I am not seeing because I study this so 389 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 3: carefully and I just wasn't seeing any basis for that 390 00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 3: level of confidence. And I also want to remind our 391 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 3: viewers that, you know, the Trump campaign was touting all 392 00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:33,640 Speaker 3: these incredible empirical data weeks before election night. What Harris 393 00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 3: is touting was the door knocking. She didn't say anything 394 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 3: really about early voting. Now I know it's because there 395 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 3: was nothing much to set. 396 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 2: They spent one hundred thousand dollars did the campaign recreating 397 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:52,960 Speaker 2: the set of the podcast Call Her Daddy, a podcast 398 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 2: by a young woman or young women about how to 399 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 2: orally serve us your man about sexual positions. She did 400 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:16,520 Speaker 2: that interview from DC where they built the set, rather 401 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 2: than fly to the West coast and tie some eventsign. 402 00:28:20,359 --> 00:28:25,440 Speaker 2: They spent one hundred thousand dollars of campaign cash building 403 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:32,200 Speaker 2: the set. That interview cost them votes. It didn't gain 404 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 2: them votes as a net on the ballot sheet. Some 405 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 2: people will say, well, but she got young single women 406 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 2: that have unprotected sex and want to have abortions. Now 407 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 2: she's their girl. While the people of North Carolina were 408 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 2: dying and begging for body bags that had not yet arrived, 409 00:28:56,480 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 2: the vice president was doing that tone deaf that cost 410 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 2: her net votes. CNN's MJ. Lee says Harris campaign leaders 411 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 2: have had to tell staff stop crapping on the campaign 412 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 2: in the press, stop telling them how bad it was. 413 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,200 Speaker 10: I am told that there was a Harris campaign staff 414 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 10: call held yesterday evening, and that leaders on the call 415 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 10: had one specific request that they wanted to make to 416 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 10: the staff, and that was to avoid criticizing the campaign 417 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 10: and its strategy to members of the media. Essentially, their 418 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 10: message was, this doesn't really help the situation at all. 419 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 10: This is how one source who was on the call 420 00:29:45,360 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 10: describe the gist of what top officials on the. 421 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: Call said to staff. 422 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 10: They said, everyone was like. 423 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,479 Speaker 2: This sucks. Losing sucks. 424 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 10: There's something bigger that happened than the campaign, and everyone 425 00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 10: worked really hard and everyone's proud of them, and basically 426 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 10: stop on the campaign to the press now. I am 427 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 10: also told that the senior campaign officials on this call 428 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 10: promise the staff that they're going to do everything that 429 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:14,240 Speaker 10: they can to help them find jobs. Obviously a very 430 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 10: new reality for everyone on this campaign, some of whom 431 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 10: had very much hope that if Harris were to win, 432 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 10: they could be headed to Washington, d C. To look 433 00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 10: for roles inside the White House throughout the administration. I'm 434 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 10: also told that there was an acknowledged acknowledgment on this 435 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 10: call that Harris's loss had been sweeping. Now you can 436 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 10: imagine a lot of raw emotions right now coursing throughout 437 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 10: the Democratic Party, including as we have been reporting, a 438 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,959 Speaker 10: lot of anger that is being directed at President Biden 439 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 10: as well. 440 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 4: Ah. 441 00:30:45,840 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 2: Yes, blame the old man. Blame the old man. These 442 00:30:53,760 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: people don't learn, you know. They talk about the working class, 443 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 2: but the Democrat Party and progressivism is not the party 444 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 2: of the working class. It's not the party that my 445 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 2: dad voted for as a labor Democrat, as a maintenance 446 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:14,200 Speaker 2: worker at a chemical plan for forty years. Boys dressing 447 00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 2: up as girls, taxpayer funding to chop off the wianers 448 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 2: of boys, chop off the breasts of girls, giving children 449 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 2: drugs to change who they are without their parents knowing, 450 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 2: and if their parents protest, then stealing them on behalf 451 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:37,360 Speaker 2: of the state from the parents.

My alma mater in a basketball game when 459 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 2: the pilot asked for police on the ground because the 460 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,520 Speaker 2: flight was diverted because there was a fight among the 461 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 2: Auburn men's basketball team.
