1 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:08,119 Speaker 1: I'm Robert Evans, and this is not an episode of 2 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,559 Speaker 1: Behind the Bastards, but it's running in UH plugged into 3 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:15,079 Speaker 1: Behind the Bastards. This is an episode of Katie uh in, 4 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,560 Speaker 1: Cody and I talking about the second set of Democratic 5 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: debates as a prelude for our our election year podcast, 6 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: which will be a fun weekly podcast about the worst 7 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:30,160 Speaker 1: year of all of our lives and with a title 8 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 1: vaguely similar to that. So the title is still in flux, 9 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 1: but it's going to be something like, that's gonna be 10 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,840 Speaker 1: really good. It's gonna be great. It's gonna be better 11 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:39,879 Speaker 1: than the year. It is going to be better than 12 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: the year. Anyway, here's the podcast. I have been on 13 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,479 Speaker 1: a lot of planes. Robert literally got off a plane 14 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:51,680 Speaker 1: and then drove to the office to drop off a 15 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: step and then drove to my house. And I don't 16 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,240 Speaker 1: know when was the last time you slept well other 17 00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: than my couch. Briefly, the last time I had a 18 00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 1: full night's sleep was in Iraq, So it's been it's 19 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: been a minute. Um. I mean, I have so many 20 00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: questions about that, but that's not what we're here tonight. 21 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:12,319 Speaker 1: And we're here to talk about the debate politics. Yes, sweet, 22 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: best kind of politics, sexy, moist, wiry, wristle, phil Well, 23 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 1: I like, I'm okay with the word moist, but not 24 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 1: when used in the sexual connotation. Like I think moist 25 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: is a perfectly wonderful word to use when talking about 26 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:34,000 Speaker 1: cake cake chicken. Sure, but I think in the context 27 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: of the other words I was saying, we were all 28 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 1: picturing kind of Joe Biden's wattle. Sure, that was that 29 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: what was in all's head when you said moist. I'm 30 00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: almost always no, it was yeah, Cody, you just got 31 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: in last night, so you're also out of it. I'm 32 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: I've been around the longest. I've been back for a 33 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: few days, but I'm also out of it, so this 34 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: will be fun. So, just like the front runner of 35 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: Democratic Party, we have all been going for too long 36 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:09,240 Speaker 1: to properly do our jobs. Today. We haven't learned. We 37 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: haven't learned a lesson from times past when it proved 38 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 1: to be a bad idea to go too hard. We 39 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: should have taken Elizabeth Warren up on her offer to 40 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: host the I know that was a real real mistake. 41 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: If we're lucky, she'll call in um like she does 42 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: with her donor calls. But let's talk about the debates, 43 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: you guys. That's what we're here, that's the magic that 44 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 1: we're here to discuss. Um. Who did you come away 45 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: from liking? Who surprised you all of that? I mean, 46 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: Corey Booker had some great moments. Honestly, truly not a 47 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: big Corey Booker fan, but he has some really solid 48 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: He's a good he's a good debater. He surprised me tonight. 49 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: I was really impressed with him all evening long. I was. 50 00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 1: I guess I wasn't. I mean, loved what jans Lee 51 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: said about climate change. I'm glad he's doing what he's think. 52 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: If he wasn't there, they wouldn't have talked about climate 53 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: change nearly enough. In some cases, probably not at all. 54 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: I think of all of the people on that stage, 55 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: he might be the only one doing like a kind 56 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 1: of noble thing, which is just like, well, I'm just 57 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 1: going to get up there and shoutow about the planets. Yeah, absolutely, 58 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: A little more a more focused Mike Grivel. Yeah, like 59 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 1: he knows that he's not winning. He's there to specifically 60 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: talk about something, to talk about it well and hold 61 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 1: for a position in the cabinet so we can actually 62 00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 1: do that work people to task, you know, like, yeah, 63 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: I would love to see him in the cabinet um. 64 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 1: But here's what I was frustrated by with the climate 65 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,360 Speaker 1: change conversations, and that would be the moderators. I mean, 66 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: I would guess it was frustrated throughout the whole thing, 67 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: but specifically with climate change. This is important, and you're 68 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,200 Speaker 1: up there interrupting people halfway through how they're actually explaining 69 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: what they're planning to do. It makes me crazy. I think, 70 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: in before the next election, if there are more elections, 71 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: we need to have an election to decide who's going 72 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: to moderate the future talking debates, because zero of the 73 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: people they've brought forward to so far have been any 74 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 1: good at it. Not very good, not very good. No. Um, 75 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 1: really frustrating to watch. In general, it's not hard, no, 76 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,919 Speaker 1: just ask ask them questions and then if you have 77 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: to re ask the question, which they did a few times, 78 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:22,280 Speaker 1: but also like I don't know, there are a few 79 00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: times more so last night I think tonight maybe of 80 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: like I keep thinking of this moment where someone said 81 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 1: something specific about Elizabeth Warren and she was like she 82 00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 1: literally raised her hand like She's like, I kind of please, 83 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: I need to I need to like respond to that. 84 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: That's not true. I need to respond. She kept saying that, 85 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: and they would not let her do it. They did 86 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: a couple of times, but yeah, no, I agree with 87 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 1: you completely. It's frustrating, especially since it takes like a 88 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: good fifteen minutes to even get the show started and there, 89 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: and they always end fifteen minutes early, so it's not 90 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 1: really a three hour debate. There's twenty two people. There's 91 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: also go a lot to like, um, like, they'll go 92 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 1: to Yang way too well, So I think it's frustrating 93 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 1: when they go to people like Yang and like even 94 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: Insley and they give them like fifteen seconds they really like, 95 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: you can tell that they have way less time to 96 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,919 Speaker 1: even respond or or answer direct questions. Is that's frustrating to, like, 97 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: if you're gonna have twenty people on stage, give them 98 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: the time that they need, you know, Yeah, yeah, I 99 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 1: do agree. Who else impressed you in a surprising way? 100 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 1: In a surprising way? Well, okay, so let's talk about 101 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:37,880 Speaker 1: Marian Williamson. I mean, because I mean I tweeted about this. 102 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody thinks that I would vote for her. 103 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,000 Speaker 1: I do not consider her a serious candidate. I have 104 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: great issues with things she's said and done in the past, 105 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: but I did appreciate a lot of the stuff she 106 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: set up there. Uh, the least important of which was 107 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 1: her specifically saying like, I'm starting to think that some 108 00:05:56,600 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: of you people on stage aren't actually Democrats. I was like, yeah, yeah, 109 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: it was really important to say that someone actually said that. Well, 110 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 1: I mean, like, yeah, no, I think it is, So 111 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: that's I I liked that. But you guys have been 112 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 1: talking about some of the conversation online about Marian Williamson, 113 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: so let's let's dig into that for a minute. I mean, 114 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: our conversation started with me saying I wouldn't I could 115 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: see her winning. Yeah, um, just because I couldn't see 116 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: Trump winning, and kind of looked at him with the 117 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: same sort of mirth that I was initially looking at 118 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: Marian Williamson with. And I don't want to I hope 119 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen. She's not like pulling as well as 120 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: he is, which he pointed out Katie, but like, yeah, 121 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: he pulled really well early on. She's reaching out for 122 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: the same like the the mirror mirror images of the 123 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 1: parts of the of the liberal psyche that Trump was 124 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: reaching out, you know, for the conservative psyche, Like on 125 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 1: the right it's like outright fascism that he was pulling from, 126 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 1: and on the left it's uh space wo or bullshit, 127 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: which is like the left wing equivalent of the writes genocide. Right, 128 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: She's like, she's got this populist, definite message, especially when 129 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: she ends with I'm the only one that can bring 130 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: that constant cryptic references to healthcare. She's not saying what 131 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: you know, she thinks, Yeah, this is the big she's 132 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: talking about, right, and just sort of positive thinking, and 133 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: like there's you know, something can be said for the 134 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: value of positive thinking, but that's not why we're hearing 135 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: not much. And I there's so there and for it 136 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: from what I gather most of her career, there is 137 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: a grifting aspect to it. And part of being a 138 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 1: grifter is that some of the stuff you say is 139 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: really true, which is why it resonates so much. And 140 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: that's why sometimes during the debate last night, I was like, fuck, yeah, yes, 141 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: yeh here, yes, right, she's good sifter, but because what 142 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,240 Speaker 1: she's saying is true, but there's all this stuff around it. 143 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: It's like, well, you shouldn't be the president. So when 144 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,400 Speaker 1: I watched I had I had a similar I pivot 145 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: to her because we're talking about James Lee and like, 146 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: I kind of see her role on that stage is 147 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: in a similar but very different you know, things that 148 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: she's talking about and different things. But because I don't 149 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: take her seriously as a candidate, I just am like 150 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: appreciate somebody being up there and saying some stuff that 151 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: you're like, yeah, well someone needed to say it. Anyone 152 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: else was. She also talked about reparations, reparations of the 153 00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: election stuff, and also environmental justice and brought up there's 154 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: something things that she brought up that no one else 155 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: up and when so we're talking about the n r 156 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,959 Speaker 1: A and going back and forth about who has the 157 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 1: worst standing with the n r A, and she says like, yeah, 158 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,760 Speaker 1: that's well and good, but you know, money and politics, 159 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: money from corporations is like the disease of this country, 160 00:08:46,559 --> 00:08:48,960 Speaker 1: and how many of these people on stage have been 161 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,600 Speaker 1: taking money from corporations. I was like, fuck, man, yes, 162 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:55,120 Speaker 1: please more of that kind of conversation right now. We 163 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: need people to be thinking about that, not that it's 164 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,040 Speaker 1: going to change right away. But like say that on 165 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: national TV, if she didn't exist outside of the debates, 166 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 1: she'd be in the upper candidates for me. Yeah, if 167 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: she didn't, if the rest of her life wasn't a thing. Absolutely. 168 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: There's also this sort of um movement around her that 169 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 1: sort of started out ironic and it's sort of morphed 170 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: into more genuine. Some of it is coming from and 171 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:28,319 Speaker 1: I was talking to this about this earlier with you, 172 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 1: and I still don't know exactly what my problem is 173 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: with it. But there's a lot of conservative pundits and 174 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: like these sort of truly Republicans who are really into her, 175 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: and it's partly ironic and it's partly genuine, but it's 176 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: all horseship, and part of it seems like they're just 177 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 1: trying to lift her up so they can sort of 178 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 1: destroy the Democratic Party in the same way that Trump did. 179 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 1: And part of it's like they some of her message 180 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: I think does resonate with them because it's true, but 181 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: ultimately they can't wait to vote for Donald Trump no 182 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 1: matter what. Uh So, I just I it really bothers 183 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 1: me that it's this mix of of irony and earnestness 184 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 1: and just really bullshit trolling, and it's going to happen 185 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: more and more. And I wanted to really bothers me. 186 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: It's mostly it's mostly trolling. It mostly is rolling, but 187 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: is there. And I think the primary person she's going 188 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: to cannibalize votes from is Andrew yang Um because I 189 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: think there's kind of the same candidate, like different shades 190 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 1: of the same candidate. They're talking about the same kind 191 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:40,120 Speaker 1: of yeah yeah problems, like the deep rooted problems, and 192 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: like Andrew yang Uh, like a lot of his early 193 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,400 Speaker 1: support was like a mix of kids wanting to just 194 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,719 Speaker 1: be able to like play video games and live on 195 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars a month and thinking the name yang 196 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: was funny. Yeah, yeah, yeah, Yang Gang, perfect to go. 197 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: I'm on board Marian and her her ORB core. Yeah, 198 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: the orb core. Yeah. So I don't know, but like 199 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 1: what scares me about the ironic following is that it 200 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: has become real before, which is why we have the 201 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: president we have, and it's important to acknowledge it right now. 202 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: All she has to do is stay this good at 203 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: the Grift for six to seven months, and it's theoretically 204 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: possible that she could pick up enough of a head 205 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,959 Speaker 1: of steam that there would be a point of no 206 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 1: return at which we all find ourselves in the situation that, 207 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 1: like the few sane Republicans found themselves inten I going like, 208 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: oh my god, we can't stop this um And again 209 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: she doesn't. She hasn't picked up yet. I doubt it's 210 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: I just I'm so worried after two thousand sixteen that 211 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,559 Speaker 1: I won't say it's impossible. Yeah, but I think I 212 00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: see a lot of that, and I don't think there's 213 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:51,599 Speaker 1: a need to worry. I think it's good to have 214 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: her there to say the things she that she's saying, 215 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: because maybe some of the more legitimate cannics will pick 216 00:11:56,040 --> 00:11:57,600 Speaker 1: it up and be like, oh, actually, oh yeah, she's right. 217 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: I think that too now. But like Trump definitely was 218 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: pulling way better, was way more popular beforehand, and that field, 219 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: if you think about the Republican field in it was 220 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 1: pretty abysmal. Like the other person was Ted Cruz, and 221 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 1: we they're actually like viable candidate Jeb I ever got 222 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: none of us, None of us have forgotten Jeb. We 223 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 1: were frequently comparing candidates on stage to evening. There's a 224 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: lot of Jebs. There's hicken Looper, Jeb Delayney Jeb with 225 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: Michael Bennett. Michael Bennett, the guy whose name I forget 226 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 1: every every time. The other guy it's not Michael Bennett, 227 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 1: already forgot it. There's a nope. Yeah, the guy I 228 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:46,520 Speaker 1: don't know, you know, the guy there were too many 229 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 1: white too many white people last night to keep track 230 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: of good thing. He put his glasses on. I mean seriously, 231 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: he put those glasses on to distinguish himself from all 232 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: the other ways from them. They're like, there are actual 233 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 1: candidates up there that people gravitate towards, uh way more 234 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:06,079 Speaker 1: than they would accidentally sort of because they're real, you know. 235 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: All right, Well, I want to say right now my 236 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: most important takeaway from the night, which is my realization 237 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: that both Insley and Andrew Yang have the same rough 238 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: silhouette of a human shaping. They're both shaped like thumbs. 239 00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 1: They're both thumb men. Incredibly important, and thank you for 240 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: being brave enough to share that with us, for praising 241 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: my bravery is going to be in the archives of America. Yeah, 242 00:13:31,240 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: this is for posterity, y'all. Um. I want to talk 243 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,720 Speaker 1: about some more about CNN, but specifically so last night. 244 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: Obviously it was a gang up on Biden. But that 245 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,559 Speaker 1: was mostly tonight, That's what I mean, And that was 246 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: mostly generated from people on stage coming not to look around, 247 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: but last night, so many of the questions that came 248 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 1: to the candidates were attacking Bernie moderators. The moderators, they 249 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: were like, Elizabeth Warren, you're a capitalist. Does that make 250 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:07,599 Speaker 1: you a safer choice than Bernie? Or like, but do 251 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,719 Speaker 1: you think that America is ready for do you think 252 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: that the idea of socialism makes people afraid of Sanders? 253 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 1: You know, what do you think about Sanders? There's plan 254 00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: to go to all electric cars, and even tonight there 255 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 1: was questions about Sanders and that made me so angry 256 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: Bernie Brown now everybody, it's it's really interesting, like how 257 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: one sided the aggression from the moderators was. It was 258 00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: it was like they really were just like going after 259 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: and it's yeah, yeah, I'm glad people didn't seem to 260 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:47,920 Speaker 1: take the bait because it's not really super dangerous at 261 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 1: the stage to alienate Bernie Sanders support. And they still 262 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,360 Speaker 1: they still like, you know, disagreed, and there were some 263 00:14:54,600 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: some scuffles, but like the framing was really frustrating. Katie, 264 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: I saw your tweet last year and I was like, 265 00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: oh man, even Katie's like really pissed about this, which 266 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 1: like it's so it's so blatant, the bias there and 267 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: the way they're framing the questions, and then they just 268 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: do not want him to be the president. Uh yeah, 269 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 1: a little bit Warren too, but I think they feel 270 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: like she's a little safer and well they straight up 271 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 1: said that in the questions and exactly it's like like 272 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: they have to be heard. They're picking questions that are 273 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: shaping the narrative, like shaping how people are perceiving the candidate, 274 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 1: and they know it. And it was wild Hutchers. Yeah, 275 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,960 Speaker 1: and they seem straight up irritated and combat of the 276 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: candidates millionaires. Everyone asking the questions, and every one of 277 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: these debates is a millionairellionaires funded by billionaires. Yeah, it's that. 278 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 1: This is one of the things that I think is 279 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: maybe awry with the situation. I wonder if maybe we 280 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: would have no problems with moderators if they just picked 281 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 1: a bunch of like crusty middle class political journalists have 282 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: been like fucking slinging shit, uh in the d C 283 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: Press corps for the last ten years and like had 284 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: them just get them like moderately drunk and then wired 285 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,360 Speaker 1: on speed and let them ask whatever questions come to 286 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: mind for three hours. Yeah, I mean, yeah, it's uh 287 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 1: the idea that they they're just like, yeah, you you, 288 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 1: you guys, you guys can do it. You'll ask all 289 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: the questions that are going to shape the nation and 290 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 1: h everybody. I mean, there's been a lot of talk 291 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 1: about this online. I was thinking about it last night. 292 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: I mean even I think it was Warren started calling 293 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: it out last night. Was how a lot of these 294 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: questions were basically Republican talking points, and it really felt 295 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: and I know that last night was supposed to be 296 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 1: the liberal stage when because you had you know, Warren 297 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: and there, but they were surrounded by a bunch of 298 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 1: people that were being pulled even further to the right 299 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: with them on stage, and it was very transparent that 300 00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: we've got these two very different parties up there on stage, 301 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: and even the ads for it, even the ads the 302 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 1: moderates go after the Yeah, it was just really it 303 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: felt very very blatant in a way that it hadn't 304 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 1: been before. But yes, this idea that like they are 305 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: throwing conservative talking points, they're like kind of doing the 306 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: work for people, Like I don't some of that's the 307 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: Democratic Party. Some of that, yeah, some of it doesn't 308 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: bother me. I don't mean all of them, but just 309 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 1: every so often. Like the way they're framing this question 310 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: is like leading into a different kind of narrative. I think, so, 311 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: I think the man tonight so many of the people 312 00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: on stage used the phrase Republican talking point. Very frustrating, 313 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: but that's because they got it from last night. They 314 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: got it from because the big applause lives and it 315 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 1: was a very it was very pointed specific example, uh, 316 00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,719 Speaker 1: and it made sense in the context of the conversation, 317 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: and then it caught on and then everyone's night. There 318 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,479 Speaker 1: are some arguments that were made a lot last night 319 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,520 Speaker 1: too that we're like, that's just something you would hear 320 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,600 Speaker 1: on a panel from Fox. Like there's one one of 321 00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: the guys again I can't remember his name, was like, 322 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,120 Speaker 1: why would you say you're gonna why do you say 323 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay for you know, I legal immigrants healthcare 324 00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: when there are people struggling to pay for their own. 325 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 1: I was like, well, for all there, they won't be 326 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: struggling for their own Like the framing of that is 327 00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: so on its face ridiculous and nonsense. You'd hear it 328 00:18:13,400 --> 00:18:17,440 Speaker 1: on like a Fox newspantil. But there's some times when 329 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 1: people are like, oh, the Republican talking points, that's Republican 330 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,880 Speaker 1: talking point. It's okay to ask questions in that way 331 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 1: because they're going to have to they're going to be 332 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: facing Donald Trump, they're gonna be facing like people on 333 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 1: Fox News, like they're there. It's okay sometimes to phrase 334 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: questions in that way to see how they would handle it. 335 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: I completely agree. Yeah, that was the next thing out, Okay. Yeah, 336 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:43,159 Speaker 1: I think tonight was like a little a little too 337 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: much like don't ask me, Yeah, that's a Republican talking point. Yeah, yeah, 338 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 1: I totally I hear that. Yeah. I think that whenever 339 00:18:51,320 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: you're do a debate like this, though, where you've got 340 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: you're splitting it up into two nights, the second night 341 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: is always a partly go even if unconsciously going to 342 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,919 Speaker 1: be a response for the sure um and I think 343 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: we've seen that with both debates, Like the first night 344 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 1: you get a more genuine discussion of the issues, which 345 00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 1: this was not as much of it. This was an 346 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: attack show. Tonight. I did love all of the Joe 347 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: Biden all. We can talk about some of that.

You know that's not how it works, right, 353 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 1: you can. I think that my favorite was Castro's some 354 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:48,159 Speaker 1: of us learned from the past moment or whatever. That 355 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,400 Speaker 1: was real good. That was really good. It was good. 356 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: H This isn't an attack on Joe. I mean it is, 357 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 1: but it's not someone attacking him, but like the book 358 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: ends of the very getting him saying go easy on me, 359 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:05,399 Speaker 1: and then the last thing he says is, uh, if 360 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 1: you support me, go to Joe three oh three three oh, 361 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:13,360 Speaker 1: which is not a website.

The first thing he 365 00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: says is go easy on me, and the last thing 366 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: he says is just he's not he's not going easy 367 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: on himself.

You know, I've lost many presidential elections. 381 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: His um. I really wish if I'd been a little 382 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: bit more coaching, I would have taken down a couple 383 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,160 Speaker 1: of his answers and tried to diagram the actual sentences 384 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: he spoke, because they were almost always not quite nonsense, 385 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 1: but like not sentences, not complete thoughts coming out of 386 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: his head. Ye, like to the point where it was 387 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 1: concerning to me, Yeah, right, you get it, but like 388 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,120 Speaker 1: they're not I get what you're trying to say, didn't 389 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: properly say it does not have a poker face. Whenever 390 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 1: somebody starts to talk to him in a way that 391 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: was aggressive, you could just see his face fall. It 392 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: was so sad. I'm so used to being respected because 393 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 1: no one thought he was going to run again. I know, 394 00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: everybody was like, okay, well we can bear with him. 395 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: It was like I always felt like his heart was 396 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: breaking just a little bit every time someone started to 397 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:09,400 Speaker 1: beat him up. Um, I'm laughing about it. The other 398 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:15,199 Speaker 1: like him still yeah, he's still calling very well, it's unbearable. Uh. 399 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 1: The other moment this is I actually I really liked 400 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 1: the Gilip know was gabbered and Kamala When Gabbert was 401 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: calling Kamala out on her record, which was really important, 402 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:29,920 Speaker 1: that was really bold, That was an important thing that 403 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: need to be talked about. Kamala just sidestep that she 404 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: only talked about She did not respond in any capacity. 405 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: She had two opportunities and she did not, which should 406 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 1: be enough to confirm that it's all true. You know, Yeah, 407 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,679 Speaker 1: if you can't directly address it, then there's reason. Um 408 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: you guys, if you miss that rewatch it tearing into 409 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 1: Kamala's terrible record as a prosecutor. Yeah, was a pretty 410 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,680 Speaker 1: sweet moment. Do you know much about it her background, Yeah, 411 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: a little bit. I mean, just uh, she was the 412 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 1: there was a lot of ugly stuff around, like trans 413 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,159 Speaker 1: people and like not allowing people to transition and stuff 414 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: and and using prison labor like imprisoning uh parents for 415 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: kids truancy. I think that she specifically talked, brought up 416 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,680 Speaker 1: tonight how she like blocked some evidence that would have 417 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:26,399 Speaker 1: saved a person from death row. Yeah, she was a 418 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 1: really ugly like California as a state with a fucked 419 00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: up judicial system because there's forty million people here and 420 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: she didn't make it less fucked up. So anyway, I 421 00:23:38,920 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 1: I really, I mean, I'm not a fan. No, she's 422 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 1: a monster, but I really appreciated that Ye took a 423 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: trip to Syria paid for by essentially a fascist, like 424 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,479 Speaker 1: an actual fascist organization that was allied with the Assad 425 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 1: regime uh, and met with Bashar al Assad, the greatest 426 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 1: mass murder of our time, and then later in interviews 427 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 1: refused to call him a war criminal after his many 428 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: war crimes, and she visited after he had gassed She 429 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 1: like sat down with this guy after he'd gassed thousands 430 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: and thousands of thousands of people to death. Um, she 431 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 1: has some weird like Hindu nationalist fascist views of her own, 432 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: and like the like she she played it well when 433 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,240 Speaker 1: she was like attacked for like the anti gay stuff 434 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:34,959 Speaker 1: in the first debate, like the whole I grew up 435 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: and stuff, But like she came from a pretty gross 436 00:24:40,400 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: evil cult background and she has not associated herself fully 437 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,880 Speaker 1: from it in her actual life. Um, there's some very 438 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: concerning things about Tulsie Gabbard's background and beliefs, not the 439 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,120 Speaker 1: least of which is the fact that she was willing 440 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: to let a fascist group take her to go hang 441 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: with Bashar al Assad.

Like they weren't throwing each other under the body. 462 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: They were backing each other up pretty well. There are 463 00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 1: a few moments where you can see them stare at 464 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 1: each other and get like exchange looks like can you 465 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: believe these people?

I want to talk about immigration stuff, immigrations, 475 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 1: you love immigrations stuff, because that's a big topic in 476 00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,400 Speaker 1: our country. In the debate, the candidates don't love immigration, 477 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 1: and a love of the Democratic candidates don't love immigration. 478 00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 1: Biden wants to cherry pick races, so that I'm that 479 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: like that like breathed by and I was like, wait, 480 00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 1: did he just say cherry pick?

Like you know, you're you're missing the entire point. 487 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: You are not that stupid. The point of decriminalizing immigration 488 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 1: or illegal immigration isn't Yes, it's about getting kids out 489 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 1: of cages. Yes, it's about allowing people to come here 490 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 1: seeking asylum, but it's about protecting their human rights and 491 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: Castor did a great job talking about it. And also 492 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 1: again and he did the last time, um hammering home 493 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: that going that it's about sending a it's about creating 494 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: programs that help UH make the countries that they're leaving 495 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 1: safer and more productive. About I mean, did Biden really 496 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 1: hit that one? Like well, credit Biden repeatedly mentioned giving 497 00:28:15,359 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: money to these counts, but he said that that's what 498 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: he did. He said, he said that we did give 499 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 1: he was defending himself. We gave a lot of money. 500 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: But like also, I don't like that's great. I want 501 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: to know how that money is spent. It's not just 502 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: about because we look at Puerto Rico. Obviously that's a 503 00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 1: part of our country technically although they can't vote for president, 504 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:39,120 Speaker 1: I don't have representation, but giving money and then it's 505 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 1: mismanaged within that local government. So it's not just about that, 506 00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: unfortunately in my perspective, and I'm hoping that's not too naive, 507 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: but like I need to hear people saying more specific 508 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 1: So him saying we did a good job, we gave 509 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 1: the money actually doesn't cut it for me. No, it 510 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,600 Speaker 1: doesn't cut it. But I'm glad that the I'm glad 511 00:28:57,640 --> 00:29:01,520 Speaker 1: that even from Biden. Yeah, framing of we owe these 512 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: countries something like that, that's that's a positive step. Yeah, 513 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,280 Speaker 1: I do agree with that. Um, but that was like 514 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: when I was watching that's that was like like the idea, Yeah, 515 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: the idea that like, well there's just to be a 516 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 1: new president. Yeah, and that was like but what if? 517 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 1: But who who after? Yeah? Well who was the president 518 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,200 Speaker 1: after that? What? What would they what would they do? 519 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: That whole section of the debate where like everyone was 520 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: trying to explain to Joe Biden why that was a 521 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: bad idea I mentioned during reminded me of like arguments 522 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 1: I've had with elderly family members at like Thanksgiving, where 523 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: like all of the kids will try to be explaining 524 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: something like marijuana or like like like like why why 525 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,160 Speaker 1: a reformed that every young person is behind? Like is 526 00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: a good idea to like an elderly uncle being like 527 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: but what about this poorly thought out point? What about this? Yeah? No, no, no, 528 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 1: you just do this? Yeah. Then I mentioned during the debate, 529 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 1: I don't know if anyone ever touched on it, but like, 530 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: has anyone said that they will not only like legalize marijuana, 531 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 1: but also release everyone that's in prison for it. Nobody 532 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 1: said release everyone that's There was a lot of talk 533 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 1: about legalizing marijuana, but nobody was like, but in addition 534 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: to that, like the people that are that have been 535 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 1: sucked over in their life for this, Okay, waiting for that, 536 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 1: it'll it'll happen. Yeah, waiting for Beta will write in 537 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: on the skateboard. And I was about to say, we 538 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:32,560 Speaker 1: haven't mentioned Beto things. We're all very close to being 539 00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,400 Speaker 1: done with Beto forever. So I already am bro Like 540 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: my god, at this point, I don't even want that, 541 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: but yeah, sure Runter said it. Maybe you'll win. He's 542 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 1: he he might have lost it by now. Yeah, just 543 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 1: because his campaign was so bad and it exposed him 544 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: as so weak, such a callow youth. Yeah, I mean 545 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: I truly, well, not truly, but part of me was like, oh, 546 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: I hope he uses his closing statement into exit the race. 547 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 1: Yeah I was. I was like, I could just see 548 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,400 Speaker 1: that happening right now. Similarly, I was I'm waiting for 549 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:08,480 Speaker 1: anyone on stage because like obviously a lot of people 550 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 1: they're up there, like I'm just here for like maybe 551 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: I'll get a cabinet position. I'll probably write a book 552 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: next year about this whole thing. Maryanne Williams, Oh, for sure, 553 00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 1: that's what she's doing. But like waiting for someone be like, 554 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 1: if I'm elected, I will abolish the presidency. Like in 555 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 1: the context of that conversation was like, well, if the 556 00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 1: president changes, then everything will be good. It's like, well, no, 557 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 1: maybe we just shouldn't have that. Sure, you know, I 558 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: weren't they debating having three presidents or something when the 559 00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:36,720 Speaker 1: Founding Fathers were framing the constition. Yeah, I think that's 560 00:31:36,720 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 1: actually yeah, too bad that didn't happen. And they also 561 00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 1: what suggested, like re writing a constitution every seventeen years. 562 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:51,280 Speaker 1: So yep, no, no, Cody, don't you know everything they 563 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 1: wrote back then is the way it has to be forever. Okay, 564 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 1: that makes sense. That's that's what our Founding fathers and 565 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: envisioned when they created a system that specifically included ways 566 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 1: to alter the Constitution. Yeah, they were hellas, Like the 567 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 1: things that I know about time the world, the world 568 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: stays the same, and so the rules should say the same. 569 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: And the thing that I know about the Founding Fathers 570 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,320 Speaker 1: is that they all agreed a dent on everything that 571 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: they did. Really, they were all really good people, all 572 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 1: really good people with the same attitudes towards the rights 573 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,200 Speaker 1: of human beings and who counted as a huge Yeah yeah, 574 00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 1: I love that about them. I love that. I like how, yeah, 575 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:33,479 Speaker 1: how the best idea for a government was thought up 576 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 1: years ago. We're done was thought up by people who 577 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 1: didn't know how to make sure the water they drank 578 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: didn't make them poop themselves, and who statistically a significant 579 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: amount of these guys died from pooping themselves to death, 580 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 1: Like what, we're probably least. There were a lot of 581 00:32:56,240 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: dumb questions and both nights and Bernie thinks this, why 582 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: is that insane? An evening I jotted down tonight. I 583 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: don't know why. In hindsight, maybe it's not as dumb, 584 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 1: but I rolled my eyes, like who's the best candidate 585 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: to heal the racial divide in America? Because I don't 586 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,880 Speaker 1: think that a candidate, a single candidate can do that. 587 00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 1: I don't like. I mean, it just was like such 588 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:24,600 Speaker 1: an inane like, let's actually talk about something more specific 589 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,959 Speaker 1: than than something. How are you going to fix it all? 590 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,160 Speaker 1: How are you going to fix two and fifty years 591 00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 1: of institutionalized races, and although I think Marianne has the 592 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 1: best discussion of yeah yeah she reparations being taught, Yeah, 593 00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 1: that's what, and the environmental justice. I think you're like 594 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 1: because my next question was like, this is done, But 595 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:52,160 Speaker 1: who do you guys think? I was like, um, so 596 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: she was intersectional feminist and I'm not gonna you know, 597 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,080 Speaker 1: I don't think, like you know, Center Booker and Harris 598 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 1: that like should have the responsibility to this. If I'm 599 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: like the president, I'll explain to all the white women 600 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: why they have privilege. I was like, are you saying 601 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: that you should do it because you're well, she's saying 602 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,880 Speaker 1: like she doesn't want. Well, what she was actually saying, 603 00:34:14,440 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, becau's what she's saying. She's being intersecual. 604 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 1: She's saying, like white women, it's our job to like also, yeah, no, 605 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 1: I get it. But like just it seemed like framed 606 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 1: like I'll do it. I'll talk to us like I 607 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: got this. Ya had two or three really good answers 608 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:37,439 Speaker 1: prepared that she was really comfortable with that she delivered well, 609 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,080 Speaker 1: and everything else, even if the meat of what she 610 00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 1: was saying was good, was very awkward. I think just 611 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:46,480 Speaker 1: because she's not a good think on her feet. She's not. 612 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,000 Speaker 1: She's not like Corey Booker. I don't think I had 613 00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: everything tried out ahead of time. I think he's just 614 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 1: got one of those kind of brains. Yeah, he's very 615 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:59,360 Speaker 1: good at really impressed me tonight. Yeah, Carla was very 616 00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: low energy to night. She seems very low energy. Harrison, 617 00:35:04,840 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 1: low energy Harrison and sleepy, sleepy, sleepy Michael Bennett. He 618 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:11,919 Speaker 1: dead looks sleepy. What the fun? Why is Michael Benn? 619 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,600 Speaker 1: I want to spend a hot second talking about Steve Bullock, 620 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:23,280 Speaker 1: because that's the guy I was thinking, that's the fourth jobs. 621 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 1: He is, you know, he is um young Bradley Whitford 622 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:31,719 Speaker 1: and get out like there's something everything about him, the 623 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: way he talks, he's got his rows. He knew he 624 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:40,480 Speaker 1: made the fundraise. He was a full quarter of the 625 00:35:40,600 --> 00:35:45,560 Speaker 1: candidates in these two nights were jeb Oh yeah, it's um. 626 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:48,879 Speaker 1: He was more entertaining than Jeb Um, but only because 627 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: he's so laughful. He looks like I can see him 628 00:35:51,680 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 1: in the eighties. I can see him being that little 629 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: punk and his pull up his face, his face is 630 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:02,960 Speaker 1: Bullock and Bennett. Well, that's why Bullock. It sounds like 631 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: a fucking cop drama that would have gotten canceled nine 632 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: episodes in. Um, and we haven't talked about Warren at all. 633 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 1: Here's the thing about a right, show me his picture, 634 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:16,800 Speaker 1: because I have forgotten that motherfucker's face, the bullet Bennett. 635 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: I remember, Oh that's Bullet Bennett's the one who looks 636 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:25,600 Speaker 1: like a like a Charles Schultz Raw. Yeah, yeah, he 637 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: looks like it. Then it looks like from kind of 638 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 1: bunk pool. Then it looks like Charlie Brown all grown up. Um, 639 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 1: it looks like Charlie Brown who never got over Snoopy's 640 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 1: death and hasn't been able to pet another dog since 641 00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 1: Snoopy died. Well, yeah, all dogs go to heaven of course. 642 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 1: Um yeah, we could lose. We could lose the JEBS. 643 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to lose Insley. Um, which I think 644 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: I think he's he was sort of lumped in with 645 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: the JEBS first, get no, but I think he has 646 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:02,160 Speaker 1: a legitimately noble mission of shouting at about climate change. 647 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: Man like he's actually like he's engaging to listen to, 648 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 1: Like he's a good speaker. I wouldn't put him in 649 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:10,880 Speaker 1: the class of job for many reasons. I had some 650 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: good stuff to say about white nationalism and the threats there, 651 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:17,680 Speaker 1: and which as the governor of Washington, he fucking off. Yeah, 652 00:37:17,719 --> 00:37:25,320 Speaker 1: he should probably be a little familiar with that. I 653 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 1: thought Mike Gravel got enough donors to be on the stage. 654 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:34,160 Speaker 1: I believe he did. What happened. I was going to say, 655 00:37:34,239 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 1: like a bottle of rum happened. Mill just didn't pick 656 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:46,279 Speaker 1: up drink the teens. And I know it wouldn't be 657 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,200 Speaker 1: a cell phone ringing. It would be an old school 658 00:37:48,280 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: pages the side of a desk, buzzing until it fell 659 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:56,080 Speaker 1: into the trap by pager. I well, I just want 660 00:37:56,120 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: to paging the Pentagon papers. I was like, we didn't 661 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,319 Speaker 1: quite finish. I want to just bring up real quick 662 00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 1: something that I about selar rights stuff that Biden's whole 663 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 1: defense of his civil rights record was basically like, well 664 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 1: Obama hired me an Obama, Obama was black. It was literally, 665 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: I have a black friend and he's the was shocking. 666 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:23,000 Speaker 1: I was like, that's what you have to say, Broma, 667 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 1: So maybe he is the one that's best suited to 668 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 1: heal our racially have a black friend, didn't someone say 669 00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: like Biden why do you always take credit for the 670 00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: Obama thing? And rejected that, like the Obama things you 671 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 1: don't like. Someone said that, right, yeah, unless you said 672 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:46,799 Speaker 1: it as something that it's not. I believe it might 673 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: have been. My guide is saying Corey Booker said it, 674 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:55,240 Speaker 1: but I don't know if it was. Mia is so smart. 675 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: We haven't talked at all about Elizabeth Warren tonight. We 676 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:04,280 Speaker 1: also haven't talked about Booker's brother, carry Booker weird looking. Okay, 677 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:06,400 Speaker 1: now I've got a Google carry Book looks like a 678 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 1: photo negative of his brother, and it's unsettling. Um, is 679 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 1: he running for president? No? Okay, it's just oh that's 680 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 1: to me, like, um, what is it Steph Curry and 681 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,320 Speaker 1: Steph Carry? You know, like Steph Curry's brother has the 682 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 1: same name as him. Um, sorry, but yeah, Elizabeth Warren. 683 00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:28,480 Speaker 1: But let's talk about Elizabeth Warren. She did great. She 684 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: did great. She always does great, you guys, very earnest 685 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 1: in coachingly melted. She's also so good for swooning right now, 686 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 1: her and Bernie just like I can saying things that 687 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 1: were accurate. I mean, like, that was so nice to see. 688 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:51,840 Speaker 1: I know people are like worried about like if you 689 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: go too far left, and I'm honor with the independence, 690 00:39:54,920 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: I really like fascist, Like, are you gonna tell me 691 00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,760 Speaker 1: we can't elect Elizabeth Warren, who in any sane country 692 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 1: would be like a slightly left of center Yes, yeah, yeah, no, 693 00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: it's it's nonsense, and the way it's framed is very, 694 00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: very frustrating. But they're just so good together. Yeah. I 695 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 1: want to see them run a presidential campaign, and I 696 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 1: don't care who's in whose VP. Bernie would be VP. 697 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,319 Speaker 1: I think I think Bernie would definitely choose her as 698 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 1: his VP. I don't know if Elieth Warren would pick him. 699 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: I think she would probably be pressured by the Democratic 700 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 1: Party to pick somebody else. I want Warren Bernie. I'm 701 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 1: I'm fine either way as long as long as one 702 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:48,200 Speaker 1: of them is the presidential nominee. Like, I don't know, 703 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: I'd be fought with Castro as a presidential nominee and 704 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 1: fucking Sanders or Warren as his VP. Two Like maybe 705 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 1: that's the smarter play, oh for me would be I 706 00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,440 Speaker 1: could see Astro being VP. I don't see him as president. 707 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: I think he might be a fucking hell of a 708 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 1: barn stormer. I don't know that he's gotten the chance 709 00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 1: to like do that yet. Um, but I think he 710 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,800 Speaker 1: might have the potential to run that kind of a campaign. 711 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 1: And even though he's more of a moderate, I don't 712 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,160 Speaker 1: know like that. That's not my suggestion or hope, but 713 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,600 Speaker 1: I could see him being a really solid presidential king. 714 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,800 Speaker 1: I get behind Castro for sure. Um, I do. He 715 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 1: does speak well. And again I well, I said this 716 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,160 Speaker 1: to you guys are there. I don't want to vote for. 717 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 1: I don't want Kamala to be the president. Obviously I was, 718 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 1: but I do really don't want. I do think it 719 00:41:42,000 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 1: would be so fun to see her prosecute Donald Trump 720 00:41:45,719 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 1: on a debate, to see her shouting at him at 721 00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 1: a bus station when they're both like trapped on a 722 00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 1: fil would yeah, and somebody films it on a cell 723 00:41:54,840 --> 00:41:57,520 Speaker 1: phone like that? That's what I want, Or I guess, 724 00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,120 Speaker 1: get someone in there that brings him in front of 725 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,880 Speaker 1: Congress as she question him in that forum. That's what 726 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:03,799 Speaker 1: you want to see. You want to see the impeachment, Yeah, 727 00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:07,000 Speaker 1: but I don't want to see her stopped after three minutes. 728 00:42:07,040 --> 00:42:09,120 Speaker 1: I want to see her be allowed to do it 729 00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 1: very good at a job that I wish didn't exist, 730 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,160 Speaker 1: and that shouldn't be the president. Yeah, yeah, that shouldn't 731 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 1: be the pipeline, the prosecutor to president pipeline. Well, are 732 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,319 Speaker 1: there any other one of the things that you guys 733 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,719 Speaker 1: did you want to talk about your takeaways from the 734 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: last couple of nights, Which one is Klobuchar. She's the 735 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:32,000 Speaker 1: one that either looks like your mom's friend who was 736 00:42:32,400 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 1: trying to be cool but you didn't really want to 737 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: be around, or like maybe your freshman English teacher brown 738 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 1: here description she's a little too young to me. Yeah, 739 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 1: brand does description, but English teachers. She she reminds me 740 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 1: of a senior ap English teacher, right. She she is 741 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,800 Speaker 1: the person who would like walk you through the scarlet 742 00:42:56,880 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 1: letter and then you're and when you don't turn something 743 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:01,279 Speaker 1: in on time, she'd be like, I'm just so disappointed 744 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:03,640 Speaker 1: in you, and you'd feel bad, and you would feel 745 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,680 Speaker 1: but also that I still wouldn't read Nathaniel Hawthorne. Now 746 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,640 Speaker 1: you wouldn't. And then you see her over summer at 747 00:43:09,719 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 1: like a liquor store and you're like, fuck, that's sad, 748 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: and she's just buying one enormous bottle of vodka. Yeah, oh, 749 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: I was going to say like rose, but sure vodka. Yeah, no, 750 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: I think she's the hard drinking kind of English teacher 751 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:29,239 Speaker 1: at night. Put it played in the coconut and makes 752 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 1: it all up. And now you know it was written 753 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:41,520 Speaker 1: about Kristen gillibrand presidential nominee. Um real quick to speak. 754 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: You mentioned we're mentioning teachers talking about teachers, and I 755 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:47,480 Speaker 1: don't want to pass this by because I she she 756 00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 1: said it in passing during the bait was with Warren 757 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 1: was talking about how um, she always wanted to be 758 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:58,439 Speaker 1: a teacher. Um, and I just I just want only 759 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:04,280 Speaker 1: teachers and nurses to be yeah, the country, like teachers, 760 00:44:04,600 --> 00:44:08,719 Speaker 1: nurses and er doctors. Yeah they're just like I think 761 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:11,280 Speaker 1: a lot of R doctors have a drug problem. That's fine, 762 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: the f d R was drunk the whole of World 763 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: War Two. You know. She obviously worked with like special 764 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 1: needs kids and stuff. But I just want teachers to 765 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,360 Speaker 1: run for president and to be president. And that's like 766 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:26,320 Speaker 1: you hear that, teachers that are listening. It's one of 767 00:44:26,320 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 1: the reasons I really really like her is because she 768 00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:30,919 Speaker 1: has that vibe and she has that drive, and that's 769 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 1: where a lot of her well, her compassion comes from. 770 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:37,759 Speaker 1: And a lot of also her effectiveness because teachers know 771 00:44:37,800 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: how to explain things, and so she can make a 772 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,200 Speaker 1: case and like make very good. They know how to 773 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:46,480 Speaker 1: explain things, and then they habitually look at things from 774 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:51,239 Speaker 1: other people's perspective. Uh, not because they consider every perspective 775 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:53,719 Speaker 1: equally valid, but because they're trying to understand where those 776 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 1: people are coming from in order to win fluid. They 777 00:44:56,600 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 1: know how to listen to actually listen. Yeah, um uh, 778 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,040 Speaker 1: And I think she's using those skills really well. And 779 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 1: I just had another thought that it's gone, it's lost. 780 00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: I've had too much for us. So we haven't talked 781 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 1: about Oh yeah, we didn't talk about him. He had 782 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: a good moment, but I forgot what it was because 783 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 1: I haven't slept in days. Uh. It wasn't the one 784 00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:22,360 Speaker 1: where he said you want to combat veteran grilling. You 785 00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 1: don't come on a few moments like that from a 786 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,239 Speaker 1: bunch of different candidates who were like, if you nominate me, 787 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,320 Speaker 1: I can say this to Donald Trump on the debate stage, 788 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 1: like anyone can say that to him. You don't need 789 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,200 Speaker 1: to be like I was in people a day on 790 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 1: Twitter say that to him. It's never made. It's like 791 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 1: everybody's like, I need to have that came with one 792 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,040 Speaker 1: prepared sound bite of what they would say to Donald Trump, 793 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:47,320 Speaker 1: just to remind everybody that we're not Donald Trump. We 794 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 1: know that. Oh deals with the warrant thing. She also 795 00:45:50,320 --> 00:45:52,840 Speaker 1: values children so much, and like it's why one of 796 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:55,560 Speaker 1: her main things is like the childcare and like guaranteed 797 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,520 Speaker 1: childcare and and precane all that stuff. And it's the 798 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,800 Speaker 1: kind of thing where it's like, any of course, if you, 799 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:04,800 Speaker 1: if you treat every child equally and give every single 800 00:46:04,880 --> 00:46:07,920 Speaker 1: child the opportunity that they need to thrive, then your 801 00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:11,120 Speaker 1: society in general will be so much better a few 802 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,279 Speaker 1: years later because of what you've done for every single child. 803 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 1: And she understands that and I love her for it. Yes, 804 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 1: But anyway, Pete, Oh, you know what, Actually this I 805 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:23,400 Speaker 1: just remembered. The worst answer I think of the debates 806 00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:26,400 Speaker 1: was actually one of castros Um, And because he's a 807 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: smooth talker, it kind of slid past. No one hit 808 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 1: him on it. But it was when he was talking 809 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 1: about Flint and he was like, when I was the 810 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 1: director of Health and Human Services or when I was 811 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: the director of hut UM, I uh, you know, I 812 00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:41,320 Speaker 1: we dealt with that, and then he kind of pivots 813 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:42,920 Speaker 1: to the fact that like it's still not dealt with, 814 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:45,399 Speaker 1: but like he didn't direct like it was like, yeah, 815 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:50,800 Speaker 1: that that that was on you, like and then I 816 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 1: was I was also there six weeks ago.

There's a lot 819 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,919 Speaker 1: of glossing over yea. It was he's very like, he's 820 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,800 Speaker 1: very smooth, but it was also like, yeah, you really 821 00:47:08,560 --> 00:47:12,080 Speaker 1: are someone I should be angry at over that. Last night, 822 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 1: the question about Flint was that it's still a problem. 823 00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:18,000 Speaker 1: Is that it's still fucked up and you didn't do 824 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:22,440 Speaker 1: your job. Julian, It's frustrating how many people stepped sidestep 825 00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 1: to questions and just notch it. And there's no moderators 826 00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:29,080 Speaker 1: never never press anybody ever. So often they would press 827 00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:34,520 Speaker 1: somebody on something, but again the moderators aren't journalists, right, Yeah, 828 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 1: but that's what you want. Ye can even get an 829 00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 1: answer and be like, well, actually, as a journalist, I'm 830 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,840 Speaker 1: aware that you're lying or like that you're not including 831 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,600 Speaker 1: the full context or something. Everybody should have like a big, 832 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,719 Speaker 1: long half hour chunk of time with a journalist and 833 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: the journalist the journalist should get to throw two tomatoes 834 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 1: like the hard green ones. Yeah, every time they lie, 835 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:05,680 Speaker 1: whenever they choose. That'd be so satisfying. Politics be so 836 00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:09,919 Speaker 1: much better we have. He's he's a contender. Yeah, Yeah, 837 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: he's a contender in a way. I think that he's 838 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:15,600 Speaker 1: going to end up governor. Three of us are not 839 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 1: particularly enthralled by him. I guess the reason I keep 840 00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 1: bringing him up is that I have a couple of 841 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 1: friends who are not normally very politically engaged, who find 842 00:48:22,880 --> 00:48:27,279 Speaker 1: him incredibly charismatic and inspiring. And I don't get that either. 843 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 1: But I know that he has had an impact on 844 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:33,399 Speaker 1: some people and that his rhetoric is appreciated by them. Yeah, 845 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't connect with that, but I do 846 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,120 Speaker 1: get it. Yeah, I don't have strong feelings about the 847 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:40,840 Speaker 1: guy one way or the other. I think he seems 848 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,839 Speaker 1: lovely that I'd love to have him as a friend, 849 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: but he's not quite my politics. Yea, I guess the 850 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: vibe I get great Mayor. Yeah, Also, mayor is kind 851 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:56,279 Speaker 1: of a low rung job. It is wild to jump 852 00:48:56,360 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 1: from that governor makes sense. Yeah, I can't remember what 853 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:03,439 Speaker 1: it was. He did have a couple of moments last 854 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 1: night that were good, um, but I can't remember what 855 00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,680 Speaker 1: they were specifically, And you think that I'd have written 856 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,680 Speaker 1: it down, but I didn't. I believe he again was 857 00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 1: confronted with talking about, you know, racial issues during the 858 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:21,359 Speaker 1: police cos and things like that. He's not great at 859 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:24,360 Speaker 1: actually like addressing it, not even just head on, but 860 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:26,680 Speaker 1: in general at all. He's sort of side steps it 861 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 1: a lot, and it's like, you know, we all we 862 00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:32,759 Speaker 1: got problems. Well, that reminds me to talk about de 863 00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:39,840 Speaker 1: Blasio in that moment that way. The protesters, Yeah, yeah, yeah, chanting. 864 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 1: I heard that during during Biden. I believe they were 865 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:48,759 Speaker 1: chanting the like three million, three million deportations. What they 866 00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 1: were chanting for Biden, uh, for de Blasio and also 867 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: Booker for some reason was a fire Pentaleo. Yeah, they 868 00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:00,360 Speaker 1: started chanting that during but they started chanting that during Bookers. 869 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: They well they the first time you could hear it 870 00:50:02,640 --> 00:50:05,680 Speaker 1: faintly was and then they really went a whole hog 871 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:10,279 Speaker 1: for Booker for some reason, but then kept saying Eric 872 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,759 Speaker 1: Gardner really bothered me, like you've got you've got to 873 00:50:13,800 --> 00:50:15,560 Speaker 1: have that name written in front of you man and 874 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: a city burned, because like, how can you not have 875 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: that down? Yeah, that's nuts, um, But what was the 876 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,200 Speaker 1: Blasio's response to that? It was basically like, oh, it's 877 00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,000 Speaker 1: the Justice depart federal the Federal Justice Department got in 878 00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:33,880 Speaker 1: his way or like was slowing it down. He didn't answer, 879 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:37,520 Speaker 1: He didn't answer why isn't he But I believe it 880 00:50:37,640 --> 00:50:39,839 Speaker 1: was Gillibrand who said I would have fired that cop, 881 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 1: And I like, I like that straightforward. Those are I mean, 882 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: those are usually the best answers, Like even when um, 883 00:50:45,719 --> 00:50:48,360 Speaker 1: to Joe Biden's credit, Uh, I forget what the exact 884 00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:52,600 Speaker 1: question was. If it was Insley, I think asking about it, um, 885 00:50:52,880 --> 00:50:56,080 Speaker 1: and then Joe was like yes, and then then they're like, 886 00:50:57,440 --> 00:50:59,879 Speaker 1: I didn't Yes, it was getting rid of a stop 887 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 1: these coal Um ye yes, yeah, great. Those are the 888 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,600 Speaker 1: like And that's what I love about Insley being up there. 889 00:51:07,640 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 1: He just made Joe Biden commit on stage in front 890 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,000 Speaker 1: of everybody that that's something he would do. Yeah. I think, 891 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:20,600 Speaker 1: um like justified his run for president with that moment. 892 00:51:20,760 --> 00:51:23,280 Speaker 1: Is nothing else. Who do you want to see gone 893 00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 1: before the next debate Williamson Yang, Yeah, Beto, I don't mind. 894 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 1: So like I don't know, it's it's it's frustrating because 895 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 1: like the Williamson's and like Yang, the things they're talking about, 896 00:51:40,719 --> 00:51:43,360 Speaker 1: I think our issues that are important to talk about, 897 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:45,520 Speaker 1: and if they're not there, no one is. I think 898 00:51:45,600 --> 00:51:47,359 Speaker 1: we've gotten all we can get out of them. Yeah, 899 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 1: that's the other toxicity. And then it's like, Okay, at 900 00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:55,560 Speaker 1: this point, we're risking getting into something dangerous happening. We're 901 00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 1: going to get the political equivalent of toxic shock syndrome 902 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,799 Speaker 1: if we let them there. So like, here's a pitch though, 903 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:02,719 Speaker 1: So like those are these are people who are like 904 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 1: every time you speak, you're saying something that's important that 905 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,759 Speaker 1: people need to hear. So what if they moderate want 906 00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 1: of the debates instead. That's a cool idea. If the 907 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:14,840 Speaker 1: people that aren't in the so like Williamson, will be 908 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 1: a moderate and Yang a moderate and they can bring 909 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:19,880 Speaker 1: up these topics that are important and sort of engage 910 00:52:19,960 --> 00:52:23,440 Speaker 1: with the act like the candidates. I'm imagining Williamson grilling 911 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:28,680 Speaker 1: Joe Biden on the medicinal uses of crystals. Oh god, 912 00:52:28,719 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: that'd be great for everybody. What a wholesome time. That 913 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 1: would be. What a bad time for him, that would be. 914 00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 1: So we've we've qualified a number of candidates as Jeb's 915 00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,239 Speaker 1: and I think we're all in agreement that Beto is 916 00:52:39,320 --> 00:52:42,840 Speaker 1: not a Jeb, but is on the hierarchy of candidates. 917 00:52:43,400 --> 00:52:47,319 Speaker 1: Is Beto above a Jeb or below a Jeb based 918 00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:50,239 Speaker 1: on his inherent worth as as a candidate? Do we 919 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: do we in our heads qualify him as above sub 920 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,920 Speaker 1: Jeb or or I think I think he's subjects. I 921 00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:03,880 Speaker 1: think he's a Jeb. Yeah, I'm so I am so 922 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 1: thrilled that we all agree on this that there's not 923 00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:11,360 Speaker 1: even any tension here. Subjeb no exclamation point after beato. 924 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 1: Subjeb is such a funny way to describe some real 925 00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 1: I hope we can turn Jeb's name into like a 926 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 1: bye word for a lame politics. Oh we are, it's 927 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:28,319 Speaker 1: already taken off. Yeah, by the time this a we've 928 00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:33,080 Speaker 1: already got, We've already got merch in the pipeline. He 929 00:53:33,200 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 1: really jebbed it.
