Hello, a dim room deep within the bowels of 14 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 2: the Armstrong in Getty Communications compound. And today we're under 15 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: the tutelage of our general manager. 16 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 1: To heck with politics. I say, to heck with the 17 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,920 Speaker 1: our general manager. Today, the Great George went norm from Cheers, 18 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: a sitcom that went off the air thirty two years ago. 19 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: It was a better simpler time. The eighties, Yes, were 20 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: a better simpler time they were. Do you think they 21 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: actually were? 22 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 2: Yes? I do? Yeah. 23 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:33,600 Speaker 1: How about the ninety anyways? Sociologically nineties pretty solid. 24 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,080 Speaker 2: When did it when? When did it stop? Being a better, 25 00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 2: simpler time. That'd be my question. 26 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 1: The twin happenings of the rise of the smartphone, which 27 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 1: has been both a blessing indocurse about two thousand seven 28 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:51,680 Speaker 1: for that, and the rise of critical theory slash DEI 29 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: in our nation's education systems, which I think really it 30 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: was under cover so you didn't know it, but it 31 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: was really i'd say two thousand on really gain esteem. 32 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: And then they start putting skirts on the quarterbacks. Couldn't 33 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 2: touch emxactly exactly that too, that's a good point. We 34 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: used to have men in this country. Yeah, man, like 35 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 2: George went of cheers, uh and then yeah, I don't 36 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: want to talk about this either. It's just I'm so 37 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:24,800 Speaker 2: bothered by it. So that well, overnight they claim anyway 38 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 2: that the salt deduction thing is going to happen. Now, 39 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: oh yeah, it's going to be big. And the number 40 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: now yeah, with with another caveat that makes it even higher, 41 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 2: which is just insane. 42 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: Absolutely so, you're insane spending blue states. The poor denizens 43 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: of those states will have giant tax deductions because they're 44 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: being soaked by their blue state. 45 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 2: What could be less conservative than red states paying the 46 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: taxes of blue states. I know it's obscene. So this 47 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: congress person from New York, and you can't blame him. 48 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: He's representing his people. I don't think he can blame him. 49 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,239 Speaker 1: No, he's got to be seen trying. Because people vote 50 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 1: their self interests. They shouldn't if they're patriots, but they do. 51 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 2: That's about him. I might change my mind in that 52 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,360 Speaker 2: because like, it's my self interest to have the salt 53 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: deduction would save me quite a bit of money, right, 54 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 2: like put more money in my kids pockets. But it's 55 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,880 Speaker 2: just so horrible. I can't. I can't. There's no way. 56 00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 2: If I was king, I would not allow it to 57 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 2: happen anyway. This representative from New York said, New York 58 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: is the highest tax burden of any state in the country. 59 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 2: We need to raise the cap on salt to deliver 60 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 2: relief for middle class families to my ass in which 61 00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 2: many people replied some version of why is that my fault? 62 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: Or why do I have to pick up the tab please? 63 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 2: Or this if only were there some other way for 64 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 2: New York to lower their tax burden, as in, lower 65 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 2: your own tax if you get too often. 66 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: It's sarcasm right there, Yeah, it is so crazy, it's repugnant. 67 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: It's a betrayal of everything the Republican Party claimed to 68 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: have stood for. But it doesn't anymore apparently. 69 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: And while you are correct that the House version, even 70 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 2: if it does go to the full House tonight and 71 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 2: gets passed, it goes to the Senate and then they'll 72 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 2: have their changes and then it goes back. But it 73 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: certainly directionally gives you an idea of where things are. 74 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 2: Trump was in there yesterday, strong arm strong and strong 75 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 2: arming people this way or that to get this thing through. 76 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 2: And if it passes in its current form, it will 77 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 2: set the record for the highest debt to GDP ratio 78 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 2: that we've had since World War Two. 79 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 1: So during prosperous times of a growing economy, that's correct. 80 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 2: Right, Not at war with China, which will happen someday, 81 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 2: and we'll start the war in a really bad financial 82 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 2: position instead of World War II begins, and then you 83 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,279 Speaker 2: get into financial trouble because you're dealing with the crisis. 84 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 1: Well, and remember, if there's some giant i'm a downtterm, recession, depression, whatever, generally, 85 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: governments will go into debt stimulating their economy. 86 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 2: But we're already way into that. This is like, so, 87 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 2: I mean you're always using the family, you know, analogy 88 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 2: of He's just like living as stretched as you can 89 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 2: your paycheck to paycheck, with a really nice house and 90 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 2: really nice cars, and you've already booked your vacation and 91 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: everything like that, with the assumption that mom or Dad 92 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 2: won't lose their job, nobody will have a medical problem, nothing, 93 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 2: the air conditioner won't break down. If any of those 94 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 2: things happen, you're screwed. 95 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:37,720 Speaker 1: And the kids have sat mom and down at the 96 00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,119 Speaker 1: kitchen table and explained the situation to him. Unfortunately, Dad's 97 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 1: a coke fiend and mom's psychotics. So Dad does a 98 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,359 Speaker 1: big line and blow and goes off to the Ferrari 99 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: dealer as the children sit at their kitchen table crying, 100 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: crying over their future.

There 167 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 2: are several hallmarks, but one hallmark is the media not 168 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,080 Speaker 2: answering the obvious question. Oh yeah, and. 169 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: We've the one that pops into everybody's mind, but professional reporters, 170 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 1: And I think that's happening today where I've heard six times. 171 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 1: Probably the Republicans met at one am or still wrangling 172 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 1: over the bill. 173 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 2: The rules committee began at one am. Why did they 174 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 2: start at one o'clock in the morning. You can't just 175 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 2: throw that out there? Isn't that the obvious question? How 176 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 2: did you start at one in the morning? When did 177 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 2: that become a thing? Is that a thing? 178 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 4: Oh? 179 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: Did they start it? Well, they started at one am. 180 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,360 Speaker 2: They're like eight hours in. They started at one am, 181 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 2: as I said yesterday. But I haven't heard anybody say, 182 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 2: why isn't that isn't it? Isn't that it obvious? Why 183 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 2: do they start at one in the morning? Who does that? 184 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 2: Who says, be here in your suit and tie and 185 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,559 Speaker 2: hard shoes, park and get in here and be in 186 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 2: your seat at one am? Because do you have any idea? Why? 187 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 1: Probably because they they were working until roughly midnight to 188 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 1: get to a place to have that committee meeting. 189 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 2: I guess right.

On 337 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: the other hand, at the risk of wearing people out 338 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,479 Speaker 2: on this, it is well, I'm looking at David Harsani's tweet. 339 00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 2: He echoes what a lot of people that I like 340 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,480 Speaker 2: are saying. It's the biggest It's one of the biggest 341 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: scandals in US history. Yes, it could potentially be the 342 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 2: biggest scandal in US history, right, and for a number 343 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 2: of reasons. 344 00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:34,560 Speaker 1: It's a multi layered not only scandal, but opportunity I think, 345 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: and I'm sure we'll miss it as a country, but 346 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: the opportunity is to blow the lid off of the 347 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: unbelievable dishonesty and dysfunction of the American media system. Okay, 348 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: so you used to claim to be one thing while 349 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 1: clearly behaving is another. 350 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, So it depends on how you define the scandal. 351 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 2: If the scandal is the Biden cover up like within themselves, 352 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,560 Speaker 2: and then the media going along with it for whatever reason. 353 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 2: That's a very, very giant scandal, just the media's coverage 354 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,359 Speaker 2: in the era of Trump. The Wall Street Journal lays 355 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 2: it out today. And when you put it in order 356 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 2: like this, their failure to admit that Russian collusion was 357 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 2: a lie, followed by claiming Hunter Biden's laptop was Russian 358 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 2: intelligence when they knew it wasn't. Then four to eight 359 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 2: years of pretending Joe Biden wasn't senile. You put all 360 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 2: three of those together, it's amazing they don't have a 361 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 2: zero percent approval rating. I mean that is incredible. Oh 362 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:37,480 Speaker 2: and as they point out in the Wall Street Journal, 363 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: all the while trying to claim Trump was hitler and 364 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:46,560 Speaker 2: you should be afraid, very afraid, right, Yeah, And which 365 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,400 Speaker 2: brings us back to the incredible, hilarious lack of self 366 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 2: awareness that Jake Tapper displays with his whole look what 367 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:59,080 Speaker 2: I uncovered saying, the media, after each of those major 368 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 2: betray rails of their listeners, readers, et cetera, said nothing 369 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 2: is here. Let's talk about the next thing, thinking people 370 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 2: didn't notice. 371 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:09,199 Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Wait a minute, wait a minute. I 372 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,080 Speaker 1: watch you every night and you told me something that 373 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 1: wasn't true. Two hundred and thirty seven consecutive nights. Well, okay, 374 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: I guess I'll keep watching, and then another one and 375 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,679 Speaker 1: another one occurs, and then they have no trust left 376 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 1: in the American or the American people have no trust 377 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: left in them, and they're completely mystified as to why 378 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 1: it's It's really strange. 379 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 2: I don't Well, they clearly don't realize, as was laid 380 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 2: out by the Wall Street Journal there, how much damage 381 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 2: they've done to themselves. 382 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 1: Right right, That's what I'm saying there there. They are 383 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 1: spectacularly unself aware. Speaking of which I said to the 384 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: guys in the pre show meeting today, this is as 385 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 1: if I created it with Ai A WHOOPI Goldberg, commenting 386 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 1: on the scandal, dishore is always. 387 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 4: Been a mass trust of trust issue because politicians, media 388 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 4: nobody does what they're supposed to do. 389 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 2: Now, I say, for me, is. 390 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 4: It he's eighty three, so he's a little stumbling, he's 391 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 4: a little rumbly. 392 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:17,400 Speaker 2: I can't point to. 393 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 4: Anything that he's done as president that he did. 394 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: For you. 395 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 4: But but I'm saying, I want not you, but I 396 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 4: want somebody to tell me, well, when did you know. 397 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 2: It was bad? If you knew. Why did you wait? 398 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: So he said that it was after moderated the debate. 399 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 4: Yes, but that's I'm sorry, baby, that's not what I'm 400 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,639 Speaker 4: talking about. I'm talking about if if you're telling me 401 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 4: that hundreds of people knew that he was not able 402 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 4: to do his job, then where the hell was everybody job? 403 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 2: No, it's more like one hundred million people knew, wood 404 00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 2: be two thirds of Americans knew. How were they not 405 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 2: away of this? The bubble syndrome? 406 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 1: It's got to be they are as bubbled as we 407 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: suspected when we were at our most cynical. That's clearly true. 408 00:22:12,119 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: So again, this scandal has so many different layers to it. 409 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: One of them is just you know, you, us, all 410 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,200 Speaker 1: of us, as we observe humanity, have learned something about 411 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 1: how delusional people can be. 412 00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:27,800 Speaker 2: Right. That quote from Morewell that Jake Tapper put in 413 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 2: the beginning of the book that he thought he was 414 00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 2: making about people around Biden was actually about himself. But 415 00:22:34,760 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: it is really really good about how difficult it is 416 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 2: for human beings sometimes to recognize the truth if it's 417 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 2: not what they want it to be. It takes a 418 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 2: constant effort. 419 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and it exists, you know, all over the spectrum. 420 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 2: I know some folks. 421 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 1: I haven't talked to him for a little while, but 422 00:22:53,119 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 1: it was in the wake of one of Trump's, you know, 423 00:22:55,520 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 1: just inexplicable missteps, and they denied, as a couple up 424 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 1: and down, that he had made any mistakes or miscalculations 425 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 1: at all, and they thought I was nuts to say 426 00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: he had. 427 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 2: And I thought, wow, okay, well we can uh, okay, 428 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 2: let's talk about the weather. So I've got so I'm 429 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,679 Speaker 2: still reading the Jake Tapper book and making my way 430 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 2: through it. But the one thing that he doesn't seem 431 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:23,600 Speaker 2: to have the answer on that I wonder if history 432 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 2: will dig up. But he he suspects strongly, and this 433 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 2: clearly seems to be the case somebody close to Biden, 434 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 2: and I don't think this could be Jill. This had 435 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 2: to be some of his handlers. They were feeding Biden 436 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: fake polls. Yeah, you know the various interviews where he 437 00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 2: went on said no, no, I'm leading the polls. That's because 438 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 2: he was being fed phony poles. As has been pointed 439 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 2: out many, many times, there were no internal Democratic Party 440 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 2: polls that ever showed him being ahead. Kamala Harris being 441 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 2: ahead ever once? Right? So who I mean that? First 442 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 2: of all, why are you doing this? And secondly, what 443 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,199 Speaker 2: makes you think that's a good idea to make up 444 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,480 Speaker 2: a poll for an old, senile man to make him 445 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 2: think he's ahead right? 446 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 1: Well, And that is probably the headline because it's practically 447 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:25,239 Speaker 1: become a cliche in American politics. George Bush doesn't want 448 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,119 Speaker 1: to run the White House. He's a puppet, Dick Cheney's 449 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 1: in charge, blah blah blah, just every president. This was 450 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 1: an actual example of a senile old man unable to 451 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 1: function at some times and not function very at a 452 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: very high level at others, being completely controlled and gas 453 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: lit in the classic sense from the original movie by 454 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: his inner circle, including his wife, that he was doing great, 455 00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 1: and the poor doddering old fool believed it. And oh, 456 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: by the way, he was the leader of the free 457 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: world at the time. But why would the The normality 458 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 1: of that story cannot be overstated. 459 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 2: But why were they bringing him polls showing him ahead 460 00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 2: when he wasn't? For what reason? 461 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:12,479 Speaker 1: To keep him in it? Because they thought only he 462 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: could beat Trump. They shared that decision apparently. 463 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,920 Speaker 2: But that's not the way usually you do The opposite, like, look, 464 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,879 Speaker 2: our internal polls show us behind, so we need to 465 00:25:20,920 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 2: change our messaging here, or we need to go to 466 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 2: these states or whatever to help your strategy. What's the 467 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:28,359 Speaker 2: point telling the guy he's winning. 468 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,479 Speaker 1: Well, I think they had that low an opinion of 469 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:37,000 Speaker 1: his abilities to do anything about it. 470 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 2: So you think they were running the campaign based on 471 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 2: the real polls that they knew. Yes, he wasn't incapable 472 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 2: of doing any he wasn't going to do anything, so 473 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. Let's just keep him happy. He can 474 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 2: eat his jello and he can watch prices right and 475 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 2: go to bed. 476 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 1: Well, if I were to use the football metaphor, oh 477 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,680 Speaker 1: the tush push soon to be outlaw jack, Oh. 478 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 2: Yes, Oh it's a Persian. It's it's it's it's it's 479 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 2: an American. What it's against a lot? 480 00:26:01,280 --> 00:26:05,960 Speaker 1: I have a big ass, the ass, that's the operative, 481 00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: the factory. 482 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: This was America, all right, So oh, to use a 483 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 2: football metaphor. 484 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,200 Speaker 1: So the campaign is thinking, all right, can we jazz 485 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:19,120 Speaker 1: up our offense, meaning can we use our candidate more effectively? 486 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: Can we alter our strategies become more aggressive? 487 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:23,240 Speaker 2: Whatever? 488 00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,880 Speaker 1: And they looked at the senile old mummy and said no, 489 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,600 Speaker 1: we cannot. So they went entirely in this may ring 490 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 1: a bell on defense. Trump is hitler, Trump is evil. 491 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 1: Trump is coming for game people, for black people. It 492 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: will come to your home and beat your children down. 493 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 2: I still think there's a missing element to this somewhere 494 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 2: that I don't quite understand what their end goal was 495 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 2: they did. There's no way they thought that Biden could 496 00:26:50,760 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 2: be president for another four years. 497 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 1: No, no, they just wanted him to beat Trump and 498 00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: then they would continue to be the puppet masters a 499 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: new puppet. 500 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: Because there's a lot there's a fair amount of suspicion 501 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 2: and well earned suspicion that they were as scared of 502 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 2: Kamala Harris being president as you are. Yeah, and so 503 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 2: that that that I mean, if if if al Gore 504 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 2: had been the vice president, problem solved, We we make 505 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: it clear the guy's got to go, and al Gore's 506 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,200 Speaker 2: president and we run him because he's a good politician 507 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,200 Speaker 2: and he would win. That that's what they would have done. 508 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 2: But they didn't have that in their in their as 509 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 2: a backup. But that doesn't make sense. So you want 510 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,439 Speaker 2: to get Biden to win, so then he has to 511 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: step down after he gets elected because of his brain 512 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 2: and Kamala Harris's president. That's is that what they wanted. 513 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 2: I still don't understand it. I would argue that. 514 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 1: And whether it was the super cynical version of this 515 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: or the fairly cynical version, I don't know. But they 516 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: either thought, we will continue to be behind the scenes 517 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:56,439 Speaker 1: puppet masters with all this enormous power when we install 518 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris, making it clear that we engineered her rise. 519 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,120 Speaker 2: Trump is more you did it again yesterday. He's more 520 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 2: leaning more into the hole who was running the auto pen, 521 00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:09,639 Speaker 2: who was running the autopen And that's not a crazy 522 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 2: conspiracy given the way things have played out over the 523 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:14,800 Speaker 2: last couple of months at all. 524 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: Or the slightly less cynical version of my theory is 525 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 1: that they actually believe Trump is the h man and 526 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: that they had to save the country by keeping him 527 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:25,160 Speaker 1: out of office, and Joe Biden was his best their 528 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 1: best bet. But either way, it was quite literally a 529 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: cabal of insiders controlling a senile old man to their purposes. 530 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:36,280 Speaker 2: I've got a nugget that might help explain it from 531 00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 2: Jake Tipper's book.
