Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Katty and he Armstrong and Yetty. Only
Speaker 2: when it is dark enough can you see the stars.
Speaker 2: Let us fill the sky with the light of a brilliant,
Speaker 2: brilliant billion of stars. That's a little over the top
Speaker 2: bright billion of stars. I didn't ship over your applause.
Speaker 2: I didn't watch her speech. I just I read Donk
Speaker 2: Jonathan Turlie, who we like, say he thought it was
Speaker 2: gracious and great and what a concession speech should be
Speaker 2: and consistent. Concession speeches don't matter at all. And they
Speaker 2: just know, no, it was fine. They're for your supporters.
Speaker 2: They're for your supporters, so they feel like there's some
Speaker 2: sort of I hate the term closure, but like end
Speaker 2: to this thing after working and donating and all that
Speaker 2: sort of stuff.
Speaker 1: I would like to make a very brief statement, then
Speaker 1: I will shut up. Under disgusted, Joe Biden insisting on
Speaker 1: running again was one of the most ridiculous, unpatriotic, selfish
Speaker 1: acts of any politician in American history.
Speaker 2: Somebody will write the book, and I can't wait to
Speaker 2: hear it. I mean, who was involved in that decision.
Speaker 2: Jill obviously pushed it. I mean we saw her. She's
Speaker 2: the villain. She might be the number one villain in
Speaker 2: the entire Joe Biden's story because obviously she's the closest
Speaker 2: person to him, has the best idea of how bad
Speaker 2: a shape he was in. And yet you answered all
Speaker 2: the questions Joe. I mean, she was just gonna ride
Speaker 2: that all the way into another term. You were gonna
Speaker 2: let the world have that guy be the leader with
Speaker 2: all the unrest we have on the planet. You're you're
Speaker 2: willing to risk that so you could what keep having
Speaker 2: that to the American people? Yeah, keep having the White
Speaker 2: House chef access or what I mean. That's just uh,
Speaker 2: she is the villain. Yeah, at some point she needs
Speaker 2: to be recognized as the villain. He can't play Biden.
Speaker 2: I mean you just did. But I don't know how
Speaker 2: well his brain worked. How well do how well do
Speaker 2: people deep into dimension know they've got dementia? I don't know.
Speaker 1: And she forgot her hippocratic oath, not a real doctor,
Speaker 1: the doctor.
Speaker 2: That's funny. And oh I read a piece from Tim
Speaker 2: Carney I think yesterday who we like never donate money
Speaker 2: to a presidential campaign, and he was using the chart
Speaker 2: on how First of all, they outspent Trump a gazillion
Speaker 2: to one in every swing state except Pennsylvania and lost.
Speaker 2: But they have plenty of money they have. Donate to
Speaker 2: your local races. If there are people you care about
Speaker 2: they actually need money, another billboard or ad could help them.
Speaker 2: But do not give money to presidential candidates. They got
Speaker 2: more what even they know what to do with, which
Speaker 2: is generally true. This is our favorite thing of the day.
Speaker 2: We love to hate it. This is Jimmy Kimmel on
Speaker 2: his show last night, being a complete psycho about his
Speaker 2: read of the presidential election. Here we go, Let's be honest.
Speaker 2: It was a terrible night last night.
Speaker 3: It was a terrible night for women, for children, for
Speaker 3: the hundreds of thousands of hard working immigrants who make
Speaker 3: this country go. For healthcare, for our climate, for science,
Speaker 3: for journalism, for.
Speaker 2: Justice, for free speech.
Speaker 3: It was a terrible night for poor people, for the
Speaker 3: middle class, for seniors to reliance, social security, for our
Speaker 3: allies in Ukraine, for NATO, for.
Speaker 2: The truth here you sing, dude.
Speaker 3: See and decency. And it was a terrible night for everyone.
Speaker 3: Who voted against him, and guess what, it was a
Speaker 3: bad night.
Speaker 2: For everyone who voted for him too.
Speaker 3: You just don't realize it yet.
Speaker 2: Oh nice condescending in there.
Speaker 1: Wow, so stunningly gullible, but follows it up with a
Speaker 1: chaser of condescension, a really endearing couple of qualities.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he believes every.
Speaker 1: Single harum scarem threat made by his own side.
Speaker 2: Remember we had that couple day conversation of do you
Speaker 2: think Trump supporters are garbage or are you just referring
Speaker 2: to the one guy with the joke? You know, I
Speaker 2: don't know what Biden had in his head, but clearly
Speaker 2: the Jimmy Kimmels of the world think all the Trump
Speaker 2: supporters are garbage or just too stupid to realize they
Speaker 2: voted away their interests.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well they're such bigots they don't understand that they've
Speaker 1: committed suicide.
Speaker 2: You're insane, dude, You're insane. Well, he's just he's gullible.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's breaking down and crying over is a
Speaker 2: bad night for children, for women, for working immigrants who
Speaker 2: overwhelmingly voted for true Trump. Also, I guess you think
Speaker 2: they're stupid or evil against.
Speaker 1: Themselves explain the whole old people who depend on social Security.
Speaker 2: What in the world are you talking about. I would
Speaker 2: like to know, point by point why he thinks it
Speaker 2: was so bad for children. I mean, let's let's get
Speaker 2: into the specifics. So why you're so emotionally I say,
Speaker 2: trans children? Who will be judged?
Speaker 1: No, who will be you know what? Gosh, dang it,
Speaker 1: I've been holding on this forever. There has been another
Speaker 1: study that shows the vast, fast, vast, vast, vast majority
Speaker 1: of so called trans children grow out of it and or,
Speaker 1: as one professional put it, I can talk these kids
Speaker 1: out of it in five minutes. It's just a crazy
Speaker 1: notion that's in their heads and it's easily dealt with anyway.
Speaker 2: Back to you, it's such a terrible night for women,
Speaker 2: for children, for working immigrants, to make this country go
Speaker 2: for free stanch right the press. What are you talking?
Speaker 2: I don't even know. I can't even imagine. You're crazy. Yes, Katie,
Speaker 2: I would just like to confirm as a woman, I
Speaker 2: had a great time on Tuesday there. Well, there we go,
Speaker 2: folkswoman for all women right here. Total blast. I had
Speaker 2: a total blast. Just I I don't I go back
Speaker 2: and forth between Jimmy kimmeloll just mock because he's ultra
Speaker 2: uber wealthy and his life is fine, So he's just
Speaker 2: worried on behalf of everyone else, I guess. But for
Speaker 2: for for regular people who are that upset, I guess
Speaker 2: I just mostly feel bad for you that you've been
Speaker 2: so misled by your friends or your college professors, or
Speaker 2: whatever Twitter feed you're on or something TikTok that has
Speaker 2: led you to believe that this is true. What are
Speaker 2: you freaking talking about? Yeah, yeah, it's unfortunate. God, I'd say,
Speaker 2: here's what's most interesting to me. I don't know how
Speaker 2: many people remember what it was like after Trump won
Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen. For the following hours, days, weeks, and months,
Speaker 2: there was a belief by the left and dominant media
Speaker 2: played it this way completely that this was just temporary,
Speaker 2: there was some sort of mistake made. Russia fixed this.
Speaker 2: It's a mistake. He'll be out of office soon, he
Speaker 2: won't even be he won't even take the office. We'll
Speaker 2: get this fixed before. I mean, that's the way it
Speaker 2: was portrayed. Do you not remember that? Do you remember
Speaker 2: Obama taking so much heat because Biden's going to invite
Speaker 2: Trump to the White House here in like the next week.
Speaker 2: Do you remember how much heat Obama took for no, no, no,
Speaker 2: don't let him come sit at the White House. That's
Speaker 2: acting like this is real, this isn't going to happen
Speaker 2: Saturday Night Live, acting like it was going to be
Speaker 2: a shock when it turned out he's actually going to
Speaker 2: be president, maybe even the whole time. Yeah, So that's
Speaker 2: the way it played out in twenty sixteen. This one
Speaker 2: is so different, even with the you know, despite Jimmy
Speaker 2: Kimmel and the various things I saw on cable news,
Speaker 2: there's a full recognition Trump was duly elected by a
Speaker 2: majority of Americans and is going to be president of
Speaker 2: the United States. That gives him so much better a
Speaker 2: start than he had last time around. I mean, it's
Speaker 2: apples and oranges, because it was seen as like a
Speaker 2: complete you're not buying this, are you? That Trump was elected?
Speaker 2: Of course he wasn't Russian something. We're going to figure
Speaker 2: this out before January twentieth or very shortly thereafter, and
Speaker 2: he will be booted out. Well, none of that. This
Speaker 2: time around. It's fully accepted as a win for Donald Trump,
Speaker 2: and I think that's going to help his chances of,
Speaker 2: you know, actually holding the office and doing anything so
Speaker 2: much so the.
Speaker 1: Last time it was denial that it's real. This time
Speaker 1: they've accepted that it's real. Andrew Sullivan, the brilliant conservative
Speaker 1: gay writer, just wrote, purely anecdotally, my living dem friends
Speaker 1: all united and condemning America for being racist and misogynistic
Speaker 1: this morning. I really don't want to learn or even
Speaker 1: think outside their box. It's gonna take a while to
Speaker 1: program some of them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I said a friend of mine who a
Speaker 2: guy put his arm around her at the office and said, uh,
Speaker 2: I don't know how to Are you okay? She was okay,
Speaker 2: she wanted Trump to win, But uh, are you okay?
Speaker 2: It's racism, is the only explanation, the guy said. Really,
Speaker 2: you don't think the economy in the border might have
Speaker 2: played a role, even though everybody said in every pole
Speaker 2: those were their top.
Speaker 1: Issues, okay, including your favorite liberal publications. So if you
Speaker 1: really don't know how to reach those people, I don't
Speaker 1: know either. I don't know of dance. Maybe logic doesn't work,
Speaker 1: so hey.
Speaker 2: Maybe this is actually more troubling if and it's always
Speaker 2: hard to tell what percentage of people actually believe this
Speaker 2: If it's you know, all of Hollywood in that crowd
Speaker 2: and then a handful of crazies in California, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Do most liberals think it was racism or sexism that
Speaker 2: caused Trump to win At the dominant media?
Speaker 1: They do. Hey, here's a cheerier, more patriotic and note
Speaker 1: for you. Warrior Foundation Freedom Station is celebrating their twenty
Speaker 1: year anniversary. You've heard us talking about this incredible foundation
Speaker 1: for years and the countdown is on to their annual
Speaker 1: Warrior Foundation Freedom Station givethon, which takes place next Thursday.
Speaker 2: Please consider making a donation. I have every year for
Speaker 2: years to fly our ill and injured Marine soldiers and
Speaker 2: sailors home for the holidays.
Speaker 1: Everyone deserves to spend the holidays with their loved ones,
Speaker 1: especially the men and women who so bravely sacrificed for
Speaker 1: the US of A. And we've seen it firsthand. Warrior
Speaker 1: Foundation Freedom Station continues to make a huge impact on
Speaker 1: the lives of our warriors because of your support.
Speaker 2: And this year they're building their third transitional housing property
Speaker 2: designed to craft a sense of community, promote recovery, and
Speaker 2: cultivate independence for our warriors. It's the least we can
Speaker 2: do after what they've given us.
Speaker 1: Now listen to the name because it's not the other
Speaker 1: one that's kind of similar. Warrior Foundation dot org. It's
Speaker 1: tax deductible, it's wonderful flying or Warrior's Home.
Speaker 2: For the holidays. It's such a beautiful thing. Warrior Foundation
Speaker 2: dot org. Thank you. Elon Musk's a strange trans daughter
Speaker 2: announces she's leaving the United States after Trump's win. Many
Speaker 2: celebrities have promised they would leave the country, but so
Speaker 2: far none have been followed up on that.
Speaker 1: It would seem they usually do not. I came across
Speaker 1: this article on MSN. I got it right in front
Speaker 1: of me. They talk to a bunch of people who
Speaker 1: say they're going to leave, and now you're not.
Speaker 2: Well, there's that, and it's mostly sad.
Speaker 1: It's mostly people who have bought the most frantic of
Speaker 1: the rhetoric and believe it.
Speaker 2: Here's this woman.
Speaker 1: She's a Democratic activist from South Carolina, which has got
Speaker 1: to be a fairly lonely life. She believes most Americans
Speaker 1: are under estimating what was at stake. Quote, He's going
Speaker 1: to turn this country into an authoritarian country. She fears
Speaker 1: if he comes to power, violence will follow. He will
Speaker 1: crack down on the media. Once we lose the media
Speaker 1: where the people of the country, they are no one
Speaker 1: because they have no knowledge of what's going on. So
Speaker 1: she's going to move to Spain.
Speaker 2: Bye bye. Donald not worried about that. A couple of
Speaker 2: interesting things. So Old Jack Smith is figuring out how
Speaker 2: to wind down his cases because we have a long
Speaker 2: standing tradition of this country of you can't whatever prosecute
Speaker 2: charge a president, so there's no point in going forward.
Speaker 2: So those cases are going to go away. And the
Speaker 2: Manhattan judge what was his name with the Hispanic lass name,
Speaker 2: Yeah who judge and Trump's hushmoney trial considers tossing the
Speaker 2: felt in conviction after the election win. I don't quite
Speaker 2: understand why that would happened, but those I'll tell you
Speaker 2: what I want.
Speaker 1: Why don't you just rest easy there, buddy, in your robe,
Speaker 1: and let the appeals court explain precisely how horrendous your.
Speaker 2: Little trial was. All right, why don't you go ahead
Speaker 2: and let that happen. You think he's trying to avoid
Speaker 2: the embarrassment of getting the smack down of Oh yes, do.
Speaker 1: This, it's gonna be an epic two handed SmackDown too.
Speaker 2: Wow' gonna work him like the light bag. Thicke, a
Speaker 2: thicke of a thicket, A thicke of a thicket. It's
Speaker 2: gonna be glorious to see barbaric. You know, Elon got
Speaker 2: involved in the Trump campaign because he wants to pare
Speaker 2: down government, get rid of people that aren't needed and
Speaker 2: programs that aren't needed. That whole thing could be really
Speaker 2: interesting to follow, among other things. On the way, stay here,
Speaker 2: who is that that is? And how soon can it stop?
Speaker 2: That is Jason Kelsey and Stevie Nicks in a collaboration
Speaker 2: for a Christmas album that will be coming out time
Speaker 2: for the Holidays and apparently a fundraiser of some sort.
Speaker 2: But I got no beef with the Kelsey boys. They
Speaker 2: seem like nice guys, but man, I do not need
Speaker 2: any more of them at all. Maybe y'all have endless
Speaker 2: appetites for the on their hijinks. They signed that like
Speaker 2: eighty million dollar podcast deal. I remember there was a
Speaker 2: period years ago where I'd say, right, one hundred and
Speaker 2: six straight days of having seen lynnon Manuel Morenda on television.
Speaker 2: I feel that way about the Kelsey's.
Speaker 1: Now, Yeah, well, I'm just happy for people who've been
Speaker 1: dying for a Travis Kelcey Stevie Nicks duet which has
Speaker 1: broad finally got in their way.
Speaker 2: Either way, Oh it's Jason so yeah, you know it's
Speaker 2: a retired fat one.
Speaker 1: Singing with Stevie was an offensive lineman. All right, too
Speaker 1: much judging.
Speaker 2: Ah boy, So coming up, Elon Musk is gonna be
Speaker 2: in charge in theory of some sort of efficiency committee
Speaker 2: to try to make government more efficient. Good luck. But
Speaker 2: I mean he's as good as anybody I can imagine
Speaker 2: to try to take that on some of the details
Speaker 2: on the way in a little bit, And I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Stevie Nick's a brilliant musician, songwriter, but she sounds like
Speaker 1: a member of the Lollipop Guild at this point. She
Speaker 1: sounds like a male little person singing that.
Speaker 2: Lovely yellow Rick Road, Yellow Rick Road. A little person. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't anyway.
Speaker 1: So I just came across this and I was actually
Speaker 1: babbling with with with a shock and wonderment at it.
Speaker 1: The headline Chris Pratt, He's an actor criticized for statement
Speaker 1: on Trump v. Harris election result. I'm like, okay, I'll
Speaker 1: bite so Christ Pratt's US election results statement has explained
Speaker 1: his absence from a joint Kamala Harris endorsement shared by
Speaker 1: his fellow Marvel actors, The Guardians of the Galaxy Star
Speaker 1: and ardent Christian military advocate has often been been described
Speaker 1: as right wing, he insists he's on either side of
Speaker 1: the spectrum. Bodes. Pratt's open letters led to consternation. Many
Speaker 1: are rolling their eyes at the Marvel electors, particularly reserved
Speaker 1: take on the outcome of the vote without endorsing Harris
Speaker 1: or Trump. Pratt told fans he has quote trying to
Speaker 1: make sense of the election through the eyes of Americans
Speaker 1: on both sides, urging people to unite as fellow countrymen
Speaker 1: regardless of who wins. And he said it's okay to
Speaker 1: take a moment to lick your wounds when you lose. Heck,
Speaker 1: go ahead and cry in the mirror. Well, that has
Speaker 1: brought hate and derision down upon him. That strong statement
Speaker 1: of trying to say makes sense for people on both sides.
Speaker 1: Good lord, it's banal uh. Pratt is trying to make
Speaker 1: this seem like this is any other election, like Obama
Speaker 1: versus Romney, for instance, but is actually the most critical
Speaker 1: election of my lifetime. What we do in this moment
Speaker 1: matters very much. Seriously, Chris Pratt has on both sides
Speaker 1: view on this election. Blah blah blah. Jeez, Louise so
Speaker 1: among these freaking crazy people. Or a few minutes ago,
Speaker 1: I was saying, you know, I don't feel like judging
Speaker 1: them and kicking them.
Speaker 2: I feel like understanding them.
Speaker 1: No, I'm back to judging and kicking these freaking crazy people.
Speaker 1: If you go so far as to say I think
Speaker 1: both sites need to get together and speak calmly and
Speaker 1: try to understand each other, you are roasted as a monster.
Speaker 2: That's what we're dealing with. Yeah, I don't know. I
Speaker 2: hope we can move past the hole. You get elevated
Speaker 2: for how upset you are. Thing doesn't look good right now,
Speaker 2: but that is the current stance. You get elevated. The
Speaker 2: more upset you are, the more you fall apart, the
Speaker 2: higher you're held in regard. Right.
Speaker 1: If resilience doesn't displace you know, frantic, gesticulating and emotion,
Speaker 1: we're doomed as a country.
Speaker 2: You won't believe how much the government's grown in the
Speaker 2: last couple of years. Oof, stay tuned, arm Strong and
Speaker 2: getty well it happened again.
Speaker 4: After a bizarre and vicious campaign fueled by a desperate
Speaker 4: need not to go to jail, Donald Trump has won
Speaker 4: the twenty twenty four election.
Speaker 2: Indeed, almost like you rehearsed that.
Speaker 4: So many of us wish this hadn't happened, but that
Speaker 4: is not for us to decide. This is a democracy,
Speaker 4: that's democracy with a capital duh. And in this democracy,
Speaker 4: the majority has spoken and they said they don't care
Speaker 4: that much about democracy.
Speaker 2: Interesting, you know, as a guy who prefer conservative policies,
Speaker 2: this is good. The other side has shown absolutely no
Speaker 2: sign of having understood why they're behind twenty one points
Speaker 2: at halftime right, the role that they're playing and getting
Speaker 2: Trump elected. Like Mark Alprin said the other day, the
Speaker 2: media just does not get that they're making it more
Speaker 2: likely Trump gets elected. So Stephen Colbert was the leader
Speaker 2: among late night television hosts to break free of the
Speaker 2: old mold, which was to be nonpartisan the way it
Speaker 2: was when I was a kid. Every late night's show
Speaker 2: tried to play it down the middle. They didn't want
Speaker 2: to lose the part of their audience it wouldn't agree
Speaker 2: with their politics. Stephen Colbert went all in on one side, Well,
Speaker 2: how's that worked out for you? I feel like you
Speaker 2: could be somewhat self reflective and think, hmm, I think,
Speaker 2: even though I'm doing financially well myself, politically, I might
Speaker 2: be doing more harm than good. And I would think
Speaker 2: all of your entertainment slash news networks and there's a
Speaker 2: blurred line there, would would realize we might be doing
Speaker 2: more harm than good, might be driving more people into
Speaker 2: the other camp with our smug one sided you're a
Speaker 2: bunch of idiots view of things. But maybe they won't.
Speaker 1: I think you're asking for introspection from people who just
Speaker 1: don't have the capacity for it. They certainly don't have
Speaker 1: the taste for it. Man, if I lose something, the
Speaker 1: first thing I want to know is what could I
Speaker 1: have done better? And the other side, to a large extent,
Speaker 1: seems to not even accept that that's a possibility. I mean,
Speaker 1: the very concept is foreign to him.
Speaker 2: Is crazy. Apparently, the meditation app Calm has had a
Speaker 2: good couple of weeks, and especially after the election, that's
Speaker 2: become the meditation app of choice for people who are
Speaker 2: so upset that they can't deal with life. So, if
Speaker 2: you're in that camp and you probably aren't use the
Speaker 2: calm meditation app. So buddy of mine sent me this
Speaker 2: the other day, and I had never seen it this
Speaker 2: starkly put. As you know if you listen regularly, I
Speaker 2: am a pretty big critic of the way Donald Trump
Speaker 2: paneled January sixth, then what happened that day, But this
Speaker 2: was sent to me. I'd never seen the BLM riots
Speaker 2: versus January sixth chart. Yes, January sixth one day, one riot, awful,
Speaker 2: definitely one of the worst days in presidential history. Five
Speaker 2: hundred plus BLM riots over an entire summer. So the
Speaker 2: January sixth insurrection lasted a couple of hours. BLM riots
Speaker 2: lasted seven months, whipped up by Marxists. Yes, January sixth,
Speaker 2: zero murders by participants. Some of you would disagree with that,
Speaker 2: but depending on how you account people dying from whatever thing.
Speaker 2: But BLM riots twenty plus murders by participants. This is
Speaker 2: where it gets very clear. January sixth, No small business
Speaker 2: is destroyed BLM riots. Hundreds of small businesses destroyed. January
Speaker 2: sixth one federal building damaged BLM riots one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty plus federal buildings damaged. How does that fly under
Speaker 2: the radar and get no attention. Yeah, the attack on
Speaker 2: the CAP building pretty horrible, seeing all those windows smash
Speaker 2: and everything like that. How about the one hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty plus federal buildings that had the same thing happened
Speaker 2: to them during the Black Lives Matter riots?
Speaker 1: One hundred and twelve knights in her own in Portland.
Speaker 1: Nothing to see here, January sixth.
Speaker 2: One point five million dollars in damage BLM Summer of
Speaker 2: Floyd two billion dollars in damage paid for by the taxpayers.
Speaker 2: January six one hundred and forty officers assaulted. Awful BLM
Speaker 2: two thousand and thirty seven officers assaulted. Nobody talks about
Speaker 2: that at all. I mean at all. I don't I
Speaker 2: can remember hearing a word about it right January sixth.
Speaker 2: Protesters kept in solitary confinement. BLM riots protesters bailed out
Speaker 2: with the help of Kambo Aris accurate January sixth. Encouraged
Speaker 2: by fringe political groups and agitators. BLM encouraged by media
Speaker 2: and politicians. January sixth, exaggerated by the media. Do I
Speaker 2: agree with that or not? I don't know if I
Speaker 2: even agree with that. It's pretty hard to exaggerate January sixth.
Speaker 2: In my opinion, it's pretty freaking over the top.
Speaker 1: But I think some of the threat to democracy insurrection
Speaker 1: stuff is a little overbaked.
Speaker 2: The idea that no matter what happened that day, that
Speaker 2: we weren't just going to certify the election, Trump wasn't
Speaker 2: going to be president, that's definitely overblown. Trump was not
Speaker 2: going to be president. Biden was going to be a president,
Speaker 2: whether that lasted a day or a week, yep. But
Speaker 2: BLM riots definitely downplayed by the media. I mean, no,
Speaker 2: there's no question of that whatsoever. January six used. January
Speaker 2: sixth national outrage, BLM riots, national encouragement. No, but to
Speaker 2: a large extent, Yeah, those are pretty good. That's pretty good.
Speaker 2: And before you leap to the keyboard to write us
Speaker 2: an angry email, we are not trying to excuse one
Speaker 2: because of the other, because we're not stupid and our
Speaker 2: minds don't work like that. Speaking for both of us.
Speaker 1: January sixth awful, BLM riots astonishingly awful, prolonged, deadly damaging,
Speaker 1: claiming to be about race, and some people were sincerely
Speaker 1: pissed off about very various racial issues. But people who
Speaker 1: said openly. Oh yeah, we're about trained. Marxists were trained
Speaker 1: in all the theories, and you know that's what we're
Speaker 1: up to. But the media wanted to be on the
Speaker 1: right side of it, along with America's stupid, stupid corporations.
Speaker 2: You could throw in a heap and helping of up
Speaker 2: into that moment. My kids weren't allowed to play at
Speaker 2: the park because of COVID, but then all of a
Speaker 2: sudden that happened and everybody's allowed to do whatever the
Speaker 2: hell they wanted. Exactly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, quite the era we've come through.
Speaker 2: Delightful. We ain't done yet. No, and one more thing
Speaker 2: I wanted to jam in here. Oh so we talked
Speaker 2: yesterday about that Star County in Texas now went for
Speaker 2: the Republicans for the first time since eighteen ninety two
Speaker 2: or whatever it was. Trump's success with Hispanic voters is
Speaker 2: simply staggering. In twenty sixteen, Hillary Clinton won Star County,
Speaker 2: Texas by sixty points. Sixty This is a almost entirely
Speaker 2: Hispanic county on the border in Texas that went Republican
Speaker 2: for the first time since the eighteen hundreds. Hillary wont
Speaker 2: it by sixty points. It looks like Trump won it
Speaker 2: by about sixteen. That's a seventy six point swing in
Speaker 2: America's most Hispanic county in eight years. Racism obviously, just racism,
Speaker 2: also impressive. Trump seems to have won Michigan Hispanics by
Speaker 2: nineteen points because you know, he's the deportation candidate who
Speaker 2: put kids in cages. Obviously Hispanics hated him. Oh and
Speaker 2: then the Puerto Rican joke about Puerto Rican Island of trash.
Speaker 2: All those areas where you had the most Puerto Rican votes,
Speaker 2: Trump won those two. Oh kay.
Speaker 1: He carried the vast majority of Puerto Rican votes in Florida,
Speaker 1: for instance.
Speaker 2: So he won Michigan is Spanics by nineteen tied with
Speaker 2: Kamala with Hispanics in North Carolina and Nevada. So we'll
Speaker 2: get the rest of the numbers as they come out.
Speaker 2: But that's Star County there in Texas, where you the
Speaker 2: most Hispanic county in the country, swung almost eighty points.
Speaker 1: Toward Trump, right well, Joe Scarborough. Scarborough, reaching for an explanation, said.
Speaker 2: Well, we got to be honest about it. Latino man
Speaker 2: are erasist toward black.
Speaker 1: People, which is why that county elected Barack Obama.
Speaker 2: Overwhelmingly.
Speaker 1: You people, you have no arguments, You're insane. I thought
Speaker 1: this was interesting. Cal Unicornea. Trump had over forty percent
Speaker 1: of the vote and flipped the following counties San Bernardino, Orange, Riverside, Fresno, Mersaid, Stanislas,
Speaker 1: San jiquin Ino, Nevada, and Butte County all blue and
Speaker 1: twenty twenty flipped thread not a single county flip from
Speaker 1: red to blue.
Speaker 2: How much of that was Hispanic males? That is the
Speaker 2: group that he dominated more than any other group. With
Speaker 2: Hispanic males. At some point, mainstream media and the Democratic
Speaker 2: Party is going to have to realize that Hispanics are conservatives.
Speaker 2: They just are. They're conservatives about the way they want
Speaker 2: their families to be raised, about their lifestyle, and it
Speaker 2: fits in more through Republican Party than the Democrats. You
Speaker 2: can talk about immigration and racial issues and skin color
Speaker 2: and all these different things, but the Hispanic families, if
Speaker 2: you're ever around any families from Mexico, they're very traditional,
Speaker 2: like it's the fifties American families.
Speaker 1: Likewise Central America and other places. And I got to
Speaker 1: keep my voice down because you know, Hispanic people might hear.
Speaker 1: They're so weird when their kids go to school. They
Speaker 1: want their kids taught to read and write and do
Speaker 1: math and like understand history, and they get all freaked
Speaker 1: out when you try to convince their sons that they're
Speaker 1: really girls, and try to convince their beautiful young girls
Speaker 1: not to have a kin singira but instead to get
Speaker 1: their breasts cut off. Those weird Hispanic people with their
Speaker 1: odd attitudes.
Speaker 2: Where's another weird thing they do. They get married and
Speaker 2: have kids and then stay together and love them like
Speaker 2: a lot sick. So you're gonna have to deal with
Speaker 2: that reality at some point.
Speaker 1: Let me squeeze this in and then I'll be able
Speaker 1: to close the tab. I just love it so much.
Speaker 1: As from the Free Press, the clock is ticking. They
Speaker 1: wrote this on election day, but Slate has a buzzer
Speaker 1: beat her entry in the contest for the worst article
Speaker 1: written about the election. Slate senior writer Scotchy Cole has
Speaker 1: delivered a column about JD. Vance's wife, in which she
Speaker 1: expresses outrage that Usha Vance's quote allegiances are not to
Speaker 1: her race, her gender, and the community she was born into. Instead,
Speaker 1: they are to her husband, notes Cole, hear me out,
Speaker 1: but I think racial allegiance is bad. Well, allegiance to
Speaker 1: your spouse is good. Crazy, I know, but sorry, Scotchy,
Speaker 1: I'm afraid you only get silver in the worst article stakes.
Speaker 1: The top prize goes to Dave Zerin, who, writing for
Speaker 1: the Nation in August, we talked about this, warned Democrats
Speaker 1: that they were embracing football too enthusiastically. Sure, you win
Speaker 1: elections by distancing yourself from the most watched sport in America.
Speaker 1: Everybody knows that, and pretty much the only surviving part
Speaker 1: of the monoculture because it is hyper masculine and these
Speaker 1: are quotes now, the embrace could repel the young left
Speaker 1: wing voters more interested in policy changes than who wins
Speaker 1: the football wars. Congratulations Dave on having the worst take
Speaker 1: of the election.
Speaker 2: That reminds me. I came across this thing about algorithms yesterday.
Speaker 2: I want to throw this question out to some of
Speaker 2: our really smart audience members, including people who work in
Speaker 2: the Silicon Valley world. How do you fix the algorithms
Speaker 2: on your various sites? Explain what I mean coming up?
Speaker 2: Stay here. There's so many good things I want to
Speaker 2: get to here in a question for our tech geniuses
Speaker 2: in the audience coming up?
Speaker 1: Next Hour just came across a piece of audio from
Speaker 1: Election Night, a political analyst lecturing America too good to
Speaker 1: pass up. If you don't get Next Hour, you gotta
Speaker 1: go somewhere grab it via podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand.
Speaker 2: In fact, you ought to subscribe so you never miss anything.
Speaker 2: So I'm going to run through a bunch of things
Speaker 2: just from my notes that I thought were very interesting.
Speaker 2: But it did come across this. Is there a way
Speaker 2: to reset your algorithm on your YouTube, your Instagram, your
Speaker 2: Twitter feed, your whatever you're on that like figures out
Speaker 2: the stuff you like and then feeds you more of it.
Speaker 2: Somebody said, he is there a button I can pressed
Speaker 2: that says the election is over? Where it resets? How
Speaker 2: much I think they think I want to know about
Speaker 2: politics until the next election cycle starts, as in, yeah,
Speaker 2: I've been reading a lot about politics for the last
Speaker 2: couple of months. I'm not going to now, so don't
Speaker 2: feed me every political story in the world. It's like
Speaker 2: when I was trying to find Larry Bird videos on
Speaker 2: YouTube for my dad, and then for like a year,
Speaker 2: I got fed nothing but Larry Bird videos every day.
Speaker 2: Is there a way to reset your algorithms. So if
Speaker 2: you know anything about that textas four one five two
Speaker 2: nine five KFTC, this is too good. Our friend Tim
Speaker 2: Sanderfer retweeted this. This was somebody saying this is why
Speaker 2: I trust the experts is met with derision by so
Speaker 2: many Americans. Here's a woman who is the editor in
Speaker 2: chief of Scientific America. These were her tweets. She's the
Speaker 2: editor in chief of Scientific America. I apologize to younger
Speaker 2: voters that my gen x is so full of efing fascists,
Speaker 2: since she used the word followed by solidary to everybody
Speaker 2: whose meanest, dumbest, most bigoted high school classmates are celebrating
Speaker 2: early results because f them to the moon and back.
Speaker 2: This is the editor in chief of Scientific America, using
Speaker 2: her own name and her own face, knowing that everybody
Speaker 2: can see who she is. Every four years, I remember
Speaker 2: why I left Indiana where I grew up, and remember
Speaker 2: why I respect the people who are trying to make
Speaker 2: this country less racist and sexist. So dismissing all of
Speaker 2: the Midwest, there you go.
Speaker 1: I can't remember if it's the National Reviewer who has
Speaker 1: been Is it Scientific American?
Speaker 2: I think? But anyway, they've been on how.
Speaker 1: Scientific American and one of the other big science publications
Speaker 1: have been taken over by a woke company with woke editors.
Speaker 1: And now it's like, you know how in colleges, all
Speaker 1: the professors are supposed to do all of you teaching
Speaker 1: through the lens of intersectionality and social justice and the physics.
Speaker 2: Guys are like.
Speaker 1: Electrons move in a circle, just like racist.
Speaker 2: I don't know, I don't know how to do this.
Speaker 2: It's the same in the public.
Speaker 1: If you popular mechanics, if you're if you're whatever, whatever,
Speaker 1: the magazine.
Speaker 2: It's got to be through the lens of social distance.
Speaker 2: Imagine how out there she is if she or how
Speaker 2: how out of control that magazine is. If she feels like,
Speaker 2: as a boss she can say that stuff out loud
Speaker 2: with her name attached. She isn't. Anyway, there's that. I
Speaker 2: got this text from a friend. Oh my god, My
Speaker 2: sister and her husband are giant liberals and just told
Speaker 2: me they both voted for Trump because of the economy. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: that was the number one issue in every poll. All right,
Speaker 2: so millions of people to that. Doesn't that have to
Speaker 2: be sexism or racism or meanness or anything like that
Speaker 2: could just be the price of butter really could be.
Speaker 1: In quick question, when kamalo is in your primaries, you
Speaker 1: rejected her like she was a rabid raccoon?
Speaker 2: Was that racism and sexism? Just curious, just asking don
Speaker 2: excellent point. How about this in that very county in
Speaker 2: Ohio where the town of Springfield is, where Trump said,
Speaker 2: they're eating the cats and the dogs, They're eating the
Speaker 2: pets of the people that lived there. His share of
Speaker 2: the vote grew by six percent from the last time
Speaker 2: he ran, so even more people voted for him this
Speaker 2: time around than last time around.
Speaker 1: Well, because they weren't dealing with the theoretical issue of
Speaker 1: immigration like the media is the media is. They were
Speaker 1: dealing with the reality. Whether that included cat ingestion or
Speaker 1: not was beside the point. They dealt with the reality
Speaker 1: and to the.
Speaker 2: Overall landslide spanking that this was almost every county in America,
Speaker 2: like ninety eight point nine percent of counties in America
Speaker 2: swung to the right. That includes urban, suburban, rural, mountainous
Speaker 2: by the ocean, I mean just all of them. Obviously,
Speaker 2: everything swung to the right, but just a couple. It's amazing,
Speaker 2: and the.
Speaker 1: Only group ethnic group that Democrats gained in was white people,
Speaker 1: and yet the explanation for the loss was white racism.
Speaker 1: You people don't even make any effing sense. I mean,
Speaker 1: never mind. Are you're right or you're wrong to your
Speaker 1: spouting nonsense, right to protect your own egos or delusions
Speaker 1: or something.
Speaker 2: Wow, I don't don't try reality. It's actually it's kind
Speaker 2: of bracing. You might learn to enjoy it. I don't
Speaker 2: know if I'm rooting for them to get it or not.
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably good for the country if they did, But
Speaker 1: I don't.
Speaker 2: I just I don't see it coming. Yeah, I know
Speaker 2: they're too far to reel in. Good luck winning any
Speaker 2: elections ever. If you don't grasp reality, fans of smug.
Speaker 1: Superiority among lefties, better grab Next Hour.
