1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,159 Speaker 1: Welcome everybody to the Friday edition of the Clay Travis 2 00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show. And we've gotten much to discuss 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,639 Speaker 1: with all of you across this great land of ours. 4 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,400 Speaker 1: America is back. We are feeling it, but we have 5 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: much work to do. President Trump leading the charge. More 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: specifics from the White House about where Elon Musk fits 7 00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: in with the cutting down the government situation, which is 8 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 1: very very important to see how that goes. We've got 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:32,120 Speaker 1: a lot to look at there. On the tariff situation. 10 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: There's going to be a whole lot more negotiating. 11 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 2: Which is not a surprise. 12 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: And I think we also are seeing something that is 13 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,599 Speaker 1: starting to unfold, which is Trump now pressuring both sides 14 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,959 Speaker 1: of the table when it comes to the Russia Ukraine 15 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 1: war and Trump is threatening to hit Russia with sanctions. 16 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 1: He wants the fighting to stop. 17 00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 2: And I think all of that is very important stuff. 18 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: But Clay, I just wanted to start with a thought 19 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: today and it actually ties in with what this cut 20 00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:13,639 Speaker 1: twenty five Treasury Secretary Vessen has talked about this stuff 21 00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:18,119 Speaker 1: that we're seeing happen here is going to when you're 22 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: talking about taking on this system, when you're talking about 23 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 1: draining the swamp, which I don't really use that phrase anymore, 24 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 1: but a lot of twenty sixteen draining the swamp talk, 25 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,679 Speaker 1: but certainly cutting down the bureaucracy, beginning to tackle our deficit. Right, 26 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: the deficit is part one of this whole thing. The 27 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: debt is the accumulation of the deficit over many decades. 28 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,480 Speaker 1: That is our problem. That's why it's at thirty six 29 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:47,119 Speaker 1: trillion dollars. The first step is how do we get 30 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: ourselves to not spend two trillion extra dollars a year, 31 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 1: you know, give or take. 32 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: And this is going to require a change to the system. 33 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: If it was going to change on its own, if 34 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 1: what we were doing with spending was fine, if that 35 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 1: was going to work, it would already be working. It's 36 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: clearly not fine. The math speaks very clearly on this. 37 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: And if what we were doing on trade was the 38 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,600 Speaker 1: best that it could be, I think we wouldn't have 39 00:02:15,639 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 1: all of these countries that are clearly sticking to the 40 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: tariffs that they've had for a long time and engaging 41 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 1: in practices that advantage some of their industries visa the Americans. 42 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 1: But this Clay was to me a really important point 43 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: made by Treasury Secretary Vessent. This is cut twenty five. 44 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 1: He's talking about how, look, we got to figure out 45 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,239 Speaker 1: some big problems here, and there's going to be a 46 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: little bit of short. 47 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 2: Term pain before the long term gain play it. 48 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 3: The Biden administration created this bad equilibrium where the top 49 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,080 Speaker 3: ten percent people in this room, probably most of the 50 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 3: people watching this show, top ten percent of Americans are 51 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: forty or fifty percent of consumption, and that is an 52 00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 3: unstable equilibrium. The bottom fifty percent of working Americans have 53 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,119 Speaker 3: gotten killed. Trying to address that, we're trying to get 54 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:06,960 Speaker 3: rates down, and could we be seeing this economy that 55 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 3: we inherited starting to roll a bit? 56 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: Sure? 57 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,679 Speaker 3: And look, there's going to be a natural adjustment as 58 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 3: we move away from public spending, the private spending. The 59 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 3: market and the economy have just become hooked and we've 60 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 3: become addicted to this government spending, and there's going to 61 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:24,440 Speaker 3: be a detox period. 62 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: Play a detox period. Now, not that I'm all fixated 63 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 1: on the personal weight loss journey, but it does remind 64 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 1: me a little bit of the first month when you've 65 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: gotten into a habit of just having that extra cookie 66 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: before you go to bed. You know, I just it's 67 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: just a cookie, right, no big deal, And it's not 68 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: a big deal. But if you have just that extra 69 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: cookie for about twelve months or twelve months in a row, 70 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 1: you know, speaking from experience, all of a sudden you 71 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 1: start to realize it adds up. The first month you 72 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 1: stop doing it, you notice it, and it and it 73 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: kind of you know, you get a little like what's 74 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 1: going on here on America has been having too many 75 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: cookies when it comes to spending, and it's not going 76 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 1: to be painless and easy to get us back into 77 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: fighting shape. I think the Treasury Secretary has given us 78 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: a little heads up here. 79 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, the biggest challenge that we've got is 80 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 2: still entitlements. Right, for all of the talk about cutting spending, 81 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 2: if you look at Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and defense 82 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 2: and the interest on the debt which has become a 83 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: huge part of our overall budget. You know, we're on 84 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: pace to spend more on interest than we are on defense, 85 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 2: which historically means that a country is in decline as 86 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 2: soon as that happens. We're just in a really, really 87 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: challenging spot. And Trump is trying to address those challenges 88 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 2: to the best of his ability. I come back to 89 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 2: Elon Musk. What has he said that he's trying to do. 90 00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 2: Cut the overall budget by a trillion dollars in terms 91 00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 2: of spending, and then if we can get the growth 92 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: of the American economy going again, we can add a 93 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 2: trillion dollars in revenue and that gets us back to 94 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 2: a balanced budget. That's the goal in some sense, and 95 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: the reality is yes, in the short term, that creates 96 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 2: pain for anybody out there that's ever been ill, ever 97 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 2: been sick. When you're in the hospital, things often get 98 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 2: better before they get worse, right, you worse before they 99 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 2: get better, worse before they get better, right, Yes, yeah, 100 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 2: reversing that like you oftentimes get to the hospital, you 101 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 2: get sicker before you make the comeback to your point 102 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 2: on getting getting back in shape, that early start is 103 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 2: some of the most painful we're in. I think, Hey, 104 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: the shock to the system element of the Trump administration 105 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:55,800 Speaker 2: which is designed to bring the body politic back to life. 106 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: And this is where having that political momentum and backing 107 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: the Trump paths right now from the mandate is so 108 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: important because for a short while it's not going to 109 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: be popular, It's not going to look like this is 110 00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: awesome if they really do the kind of cuts. Now, 111 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: remember Elon is advisory, and the White House has made 112 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: this even more clear to everybody. Elon is advising on 113 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: what should be done. Trump and his cabinet have to 114 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 1: decide what will be done. That's a different thing. But 115 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 1: when you're looking clay at cutting government spending, part of 116 00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: the issue is that our economy has become reliant on 117 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 1: government spending for its growth and expansion. Yeah, you're looking 118 00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: at twenty five percent in twenty twenty three. I mean 119 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: I just pulled this up. Twenty five percent of all 120 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:49,320 Speaker 1: new jobs in twenty twenty three we're government jobs. Why 121 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: think about We're in a country of three hundred and 122 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 1: fifty million people. Of all the new jobs created, one 123 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: in four we're government. Did you feel like your government 124 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: has gotten that much? Has your government twenty five percent better? 125 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: And I mean anywhere you know, federal government, state government 126 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 1: in a red state, state government a blue state, Look, 127 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: who is your government getting how much? So the issue 128 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: here is much like that the diet situation. You're going 129 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: to feel, or rather the American economy is going to 130 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: feel like what happened to my cookies for a little 131 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,320 Speaker 1: bit here, and you're going to miss them for a 132 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: little bit. And I think it's important that people. If 133 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: we don't do this, things just get worse and worse. Right, 134 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,200 Speaker 1: But doing it is going to require us to understand, 135 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: and we're not even you know, Entitlements is a whole 136 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: other thing. Entitlements is something that no one's even talking 137 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: about touching right now. And I don't think we're going 138 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: to get to touching them, but at least we can 139 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: begin to make some progress on overall spend. 140 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 4: Yeah. 141 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 2: And I also think it's important because the story is 142 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:55,080 Speaker 2: basically vanished. Trump solved everything at the border in forty days. 143 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,720 Speaker 2: I know, think about the last four years that we've 144 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,239 Speaker 2: been doing this show, Buck, how often have we circled 145 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: back around to the situation at the border is untenable? 146 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: In forty days, we are at the lowest border crossings 147 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 2: in twenty five years. And I do don't mistake the 148 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 2: fact that the media suddenly is not talking about the 149 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:20,239 Speaker 2: border at all is because if they did, they would 150 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: have to acknowledge that everything Trump said is true, that 151 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 2: Biden could have shut down the border at any point 152 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 2: and then leaving it wide open was a conscious choice 153 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 2: that he made. I'm having fun with analogies today. 154 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: The border is a bit like we're at a house 155 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: where the bathtub has flooded and been left on for 156 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,599 Speaker 1: a couple of days, and the house now has I 157 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: don't know, a foot of water on the on the floor. 158 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 2: Okay, the border is the faucet is now off. 159 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, But the bigger challenge is actually the foot of 160 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 1: water that is in the entire house, which is the 161 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: tens of millions of illegals. So he has he has 162 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: shut down the inflow. But the bigger challenge, really, I think, 163 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: is still what do we do about those who have 164 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: already come in here illegally, especially the ten million plus 165 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: that we're here under Biden under the false pretense of asylum, 166 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,319 Speaker 1: which they are not going to get and do not deserve. 167 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: So there's still a big challenge there ahead for Ice, 168 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 1: for Home, and for home, for the whole crew. I 169 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: think what you have to hope, and you're right about that. 170 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: I think what you have to hope is that the 171 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,559 Speaker 1: lack of welcoming will actually mean that some people are 172 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: going to start to go back. And the reality, and 173 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,320 Speaker 1: we told you this, the reality was The idea that 174 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: Trump was going to be able to get millions of 175 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 1: people out of the country via deportation, where we're taking 176 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: control of those people and taking them out, was going 177 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,200 Speaker 1: to be very, very difficult. And we had Tom Homan 178 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: on I think last week, right, and he ran through 179 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: and he said publicly, I was reading in New York 180 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: Times this morning, he has said publicly, Look, the only 181 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,280 Speaker 1: way to deport more people is to arrest more peace people. 182 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:03,040 Speaker 1: And we've arrested a lot more than Joe Biden. And 183 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: to their credit, they started with the violent felons who 184 00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,199 Speaker 1: are here that are the biggest threats. But the ability 185 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: to arrest a ton of people is not there right 186 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: now without more money being spent and without more resources 187 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: to be directed there. Positive again, the border is shut down. 188 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: It appears that most of the FBI. 189 00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:32,839 Speaker 2: Atment of justice is now focused on actual crimes as 190 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: opposed to being concerned about what parents are saying at 191 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 2: school boards. I saw the arrest news yesterday from Cash, 192 00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 2: Pattel and Pambondi about catching people inside of our government, 193 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 2: and we should mention too as we continue throughout the show. 194 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: One of the top criticisms of Trump so far has 195 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 2: been what buck oh, that they've tried to resurrect the 196 00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 2: idea that he's putin stooge. This morning, Trump went all 197 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 2: in on Russia over their recent attacks on Ukraine. Said 198 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 2: they're unacceptable and that we need to cease fire immediately, 199 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 2: direct statement, which is where Trump I think has been 200 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 2: smart in terms of being able to try to stay 201 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 2: in the middle in some way without saying Ukraine is pure, 202 00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:24,640 Speaker 2: innocent good and Russia is evil incarnate. He is trying 203 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 2: to maneuver this resolution so that we can get a 204 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: cease fire in tens of thousands of people who are 205 00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 2: dying on a regular basis now on the side of 206 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 2: Ukraine and Russia comes to a close. And if that happens, 207 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,440 Speaker 2: he would get the Nobel Peace Prize any Democrat that 208 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 2: did it. He's also obviously stepped up his rhetorical flourishes 209 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 2: against Tamas over the hostages that they still control. So 210 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 2: there is a lot going on. But yes, the federal 211 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:58,560 Speaker 2: government is the budget the number one biggest challenge I 212 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 2: think it's fair to say of the Trump administration right now. 213 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 1: Well, and what you're going to see is a continuation 214 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,120 Speaker 1: of the media saying why hasn't the price of eggs 215 00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: gone down. If they make substantial cuts, substantial cuts to 216 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 1: government spending through dose advisory opinions, effectively, there's going to 217 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 1: be a little bit of economic what's going on here? 218 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 1: For a second, you might you know, you've already seen 219 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: this is the worst week I think that the stock 220 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:30,599 Speaker 1: markets had since September. 221 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 2: Now that's just one week. My point is that you're 222 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:34,760 Speaker 2: going to see this and. 223 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,440 Speaker 1: The other side is going to just try to in 224 00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 1: bad faith, capitalize on it if cuts are made. But 225 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:44,199 Speaker 1: expect that, like I said, you're going when you stop 226 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 1: eating the extra cookies, you're going to be a little 227 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: hungry at first. We are going to have to go 228 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,959 Speaker 1: through a little bit of a hungry phase here. It's 229 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 1: not going to be a huge deal. I'm not saying, 230 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 1: you know, we're not talking about a great depression or something. 231 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,520 Speaker 1: We're just there might be a little bit of a 232 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 1: downturn in some of what we've seen in the markets. 233 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I think a big proleroblem with Biden's administration. Rather, 234 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 1: one of the additional big lies was the ways that 235 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: they pretended the economy was always better. 236 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 2: Than it was. 237 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, because people were recognized the hold on prices are 238 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: super high. Inflation's really bad. They said, Oh, well, look 239 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,200 Speaker 1: at the job's numbers. The job's numbers were all always 240 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: dramatically wrong in favor of Biden, every quarter dramatically wrong 241 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 1: in favor of Biden, because it was in favor of 242 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: jobs that weren't actually created. When you add to that 243 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,400 Speaker 1: twenty five percent of new jobs or government jobs, this 244 00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:33,839 Speaker 1: whole thing right, You've got the government printing money, You've 245 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,040 Speaker 1: got the government spending more money on more useless stuff. 246 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 1: As the government growing, the bureaucracy growing, the expenditures, increasing 247 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: the debt. 248 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:44,840 Speaker 2: It all feeds into each other. 249 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: People wonder why, you know, they feel like their dollars 250 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: aren't going as far now as they did even ten, fifteen, 251 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 1: twenty years ago, because they're not. That's reality. And to 252 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,680 Speaker 1: get this under control requires people to do things that 253 00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: aren't necessarily in the short term going to feel like 254 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 1: everything is, you know, because we have a system that 255 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,679 Speaker 1: is propped up by a lot of fantasy land stuff 256 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: right now. And Elon's saying that if you wait until 257 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 1: the music truly stops, then things get very ugly. I 258 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: think we have a moment in time here, Clay where 259 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 1: real stuff can be done to at least begin to 260 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: turn this cruise ship around before it buries itself in 261 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: the port.

Buck spring break week has nearly arrived 295 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: for the Travis Boys, so I will be out next week. 296 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 2: You will have us completely. But the process of preparing 297 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 2: for a trip actually somehow gets more complicated. I think 298 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: the older they get, because they have you know, when 299 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 2: they're young, like you just kind of throw everything together, 300 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 2: you don't have to worry about it too much. But 301 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 2: when they get older. There are just so many more apparatuses. 302 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 2: I don't even know if the word is tech things 303 00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 2: that you have to roll together that just I mean 304 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: a travel It's like a small village. So I'm in 305 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,000 Speaker 2: the process right now of getting ready for a trip excited. 306 00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,680 Speaker 2: I've never been to Steamboat Springs, Colorado. I know you've 307 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:07,399 Speaker 2: only been to Colorado once because you went and spoke 308 00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 2: in Colorado Springs recently. I just went, yeah, But I 309 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 2: have heard Steamboat Springs is fantastic. So if you have been, 310 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 2: or maybe we're on in Steamboat Springs, I don't know 311 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 2: if people regularly listen there or not, let me know 312 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 2: what I need to see. The kids are going to 313 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 2: be skiing, snowboarding, doing all those things. I don't do it. 314 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 2: I hit a tree years ago decided I like every sport. 315 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 2: I don't need to ski. I'm a Southern boy. I 316 00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 2: didn't grow up doing it. But if there are things 317 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,399 Speaker 2: that I need to see around Steamboat Springs, let me know, 318 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 2: because I'm excited to go to that area. I've been 319 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,359 Speaker 2: to Colorado a lot, beautiful place, but that is where 320 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,280 Speaker 2: we are headed, so I'm excited to check that out 321 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 2: when we come back. Buck I want to hit you 322 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 2: with some of this. Jasmine Crockett and some of these 323 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 2: other crazy Democrats are so bereft of ideas that they 324 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,679 Speaker 2: are getting ridiculed now by CNN for their attempt to 325 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 2: reach out. And I've got a thesis here. My theory 326 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,480 Speaker 2: is they have had everything rigged in their favor for 327 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 2: so long that they don't actually know how to compete 328 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,320 Speaker 2: on the Internet. Because when you had the algorithm all 329 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,040 Speaker 2: in your favor, you didn't actually have to be good, 330 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 2: you didn't have to have smart arguments. Everything was being 331 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 2: done for you. And suddenly, in the wake of Elon 332 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 2: Musk and now the Trump win, there's real competition and 333 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 2: they don't have the ability to compete in the marketplace 334 00:18:33,800 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: of ideas in a very rational way because they've never 335 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 2: had to do it before. And I think it's showing. 336 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:42,120 Speaker 2: And I've got some cuts that I think you guys 337 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:43,800 Speaker 2: will enjoy.

Overalls is 373 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 2: an elite Look here, all right, let's dive in, Buck. 374 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,560 Speaker 2: I was telling you that there were several parts of 375 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 2: the day before we dive in. Is this is this 376 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,120 Speaker 2: having adorable child on your lap? Is this a ploy 377 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 2: to keep the heat down? Yesterday's talk about musical theater. 378 00:20:43,280 --> 00:20:45,880 Speaker 2: I saw some of the emails. Oh did we get 379 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,440 Speaker 2: a bunch of emails about this? Oh? Of course we did, 380 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 2: Of course we did. So you know, most people I 381 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 2: felt like agreed with me because they have good sense 382 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 2: and they know the musicals are wildly overrated and that 383 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,880 Speaker 2: really no heterosexual man likes them. But we'll get into 384 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 2: that maybe a little bit later. But I do think 385 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:08,879 Speaker 2: that the reaction overall. Producer Ali says, we got tons 386 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 2: of This is fantastic producer Ali and Greg who have 387 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 2: to go through all these emails. I do kind of 388 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 2: think it's very funny that they get deluged, Like we 389 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,640 Speaker 2: could have the most controversial take on, you know, the 390 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 2: federal budget or what we should do in the war 391 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 2: in Ukraine and Russia, and people are like, yeah, whatever, 392 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 2: and then I'm like, hey, the flute is the worst 393 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,720 Speaker 2: wind instrument to play, or musicals are wildly overrated and 394 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 2: most of them are not worth watching, and everybody just 395 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 2: like is like, oh my goodness, how dare you? But 396 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 2: I did want to speaking of how dare you? Buck? 397 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 2: The big story that I think is playing out right 398 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:57,119 Speaker 2: now is Democrats have had all of the institutions rigged 399 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,040 Speaker 2: in their favor for so long that they don't know 400 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 2: how to actually compete on the open Internet. And they 401 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 2: keep trying to compete because the Trump team, I think 402 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 2: is very skilled at speaking to the larger Internet. I 403 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 2: also think common sense tends to work very well on 404 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: the Internet, based on how I've seen my career go. 405 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,679 Speaker 2: But they keep putting up these ridiculous videos, and they 406 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 2: put up a video some of you, I'm sure saw 407 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:26,320 Speaker 2: it of all these Democrat congress women pretending to be boxers, 408 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:28,160 Speaker 2: pretending to be fighters grappling. 409 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,159 Speaker 1: Say, can I jump in here, because for once I 410 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: have a little bit of pop culture knowledge. It is 411 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: a TikTok trend that I believe is a reference to 412 00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:41,400 Speaker 1: the Arcade game version of Street Fighter two. 413 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 2: So it has gone viral. Fine, but it's old too. 414 00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 1: I would say this was a thing, This was cool 415 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: for the cool kids, like two years ago. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, 416 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,080 Speaker 1: the show's agreeing with our producers are all agreeing. It's 417 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 1: an old trend that they play. It would be like 418 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 1: if they tried to learn a shof dance. 419 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 2: Now, shuffle doan're doing back in the day when it 420 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: was cool back in twenty twenty, we were all locked 421 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 2: into our homes and couldn't go anywhere. TikTok shuffle dance 422 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 2: was with all the hip kids. I would give anything 423 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 2: for video of you attempting the TikTok shuffle dance by 424 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 2: yourself in your apartment. I mean it was said, I 425 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 2: don't know why you. 426 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:23,199 Speaker 3: Like. 427 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,639 Speaker 2: I would like I would like to see it because 428 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: I think it would be hysterical. Well, they did a 429 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: version of this this fighter thing video and even CNN 430 00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 2: Abby Phillip just absolutely obliterated them over their inability to 431 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 2: connect and trying too hard. Here's cut nineteen that TikTok chat. 432 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 2: I don't even know where to begin. I'm not sure 433 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 2: why this is necessary. 434 00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 3: I mean, there is like serious stuff happening in this country, 435 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 3: but that seems to be just inviting ridicule. 436 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 2: I don't get it, like I don't get it. 437 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 3: I mean, maybe you will get seven million eyeballs, but 438 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 3: what is the point? 439 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 2: I think she right. And also, there is a difference 440 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 2: between doing something that feels a little bit organic and 441 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 2: doing something that feels desperate, and Democrats just feel to 442 00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 2: me desperate. Like I'll give you an example. Buck the 443 00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 2: video of the DJ the DJ kid, the thirteen year 444 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 2: old cancer surviving police role modeling got the Secret Service vote. 445 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 2: Buck he hugged Trump in the Oval office. It's been viewed, 446 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 2: I think, twenty million times on TikTok. But that was 447 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,879 Speaker 2: an organic clip that they happened to share that is 448 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,479 Speaker 2: in some way reflective of the interaction. There's an element 449 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 2: of try too hard and desperation that seems to be 450 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: coming through in everything that Democrats do. 451 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, what is the playbook supposed to be for 452 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: them right now? I couldn't even really come up with it. 453 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: I think it was funny that Gavin Newsom saw this 454 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 1: opportunity to sit down with somebody on the right who's 455 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: very close with Trump and Trump's family and start to 456 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: sound a little bit less crazy and now the Democrats 457 00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: are in this hole tizzy about it. But he didn't 458 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: even really say anything. He just sort of did the well, 459 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 1: your side has some things to say, my side has 460 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 1: some things to say. 461 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 2: It's a fairness issue. I agree that there are problems. 462 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: I agree that there are and what you have to 463 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: remember about someone like a Gavin Newsom, and I think 464 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: everybody should. 465 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 2: Be prepared for this. 466 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: He will lie to you about anything. It does not 467 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 1: matter what he said yesterday. It does not matter what 468 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: he says on a podcast today. He if the political 469 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:41,879 Speaker 1: win shift, or if it's of if it will be 470 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: advantageous to him, will say something entirely different tomorrow. This 471 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,480 Speaker 1: is how Democrats operate, which is also why all the 472 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: outrage against him is both short lived and pointless, because 473 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: ultimately he's going to go back on all of this 474 00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 1: stuff unless he thinks that he can actually win the 475 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 1: Democrat nomination with it. But he's not going to make 476 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: any changes in the state of California. He's not going 477 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: to you know, I want to give people, some people 478 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:07,920 Speaker 1: credit out there because we've said a lot of nice 479 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: things here, because we call balls and strikes about Fetterman. 480 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 2: We've said, wow, I was a little too hard on him. 481 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: Wow, you know, he's actually good on Israel, good on 482 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: the border. He said some things that I agree with 483 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: the words, but Clay people pointed this out. 484 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,320 Speaker 2: How does he vote? And he votes like a communist. Yes, 485 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: he votes like a communist, and that's what matters. 486 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: He uses his power for the bad guys, and there's 487 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:31,880 Speaker 1: no doubt. 488 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 2: And I mean I think that that's why you can't 489 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 2: even point to a reasonable Democrat right now, like just 490 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 2: somebody who's relatively in the middle. They almost don't exist. 491 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 2: And I think the challenge associated with it is, how 492 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 2: do you if you're the Democrats? Like I looked at 493 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:53,680 Speaker 2: this coverage of the of the Gavin Newsom comments about 494 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: trans related individuals trying to compete in women's sports. I 495 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 2: think Buck his team leaked all of this. The fact 496 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 2: that The New York Times has a front page story 497 00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 2: about it. I don't think they would have done that 498 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 2: unless Gavin Newsom's team was encouraging Democrats Democrat funded media 499 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:19,479 Speaker 2: to write about this. Right, it seemed very calculated. It 500 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 2: was on his own podcast. It felt like his PR 501 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 2: team was blasting this everywhere to try to get attention 502 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,159 Speaker 2: for it, you know what I mean, Like it didn't 503 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 2: feel like this story got it took off almost immediately, 504 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 2: like everybody had gotten their talking points of Gavin Newsom 505 00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 2: has done this and now every Democrat group needs to 506 00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 2: talk about it. Does that make sense? It felt very 507 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 2: calculated by him. Well, absolutely. 508 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,200 Speaker 1: I think everything that he has done is a form 509 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: of pure calculation. And that's why he's as left wing 510 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: as he is, because he's just doing what is popular 511 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 1: in California. If he were and there are other Democrats 512 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: who going to try this as well, they'll play games, 513 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,160 Speaker 1: they'll take both sides of the issue, and that hope 514 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: that the media will be there for them when they're 515 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: trying to convince you they didn't say what they actually 516 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: said or they didn't believe. Remember Kamala tried this. Oh 517 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: I never said we should have trans surgery for inmates. Well, 518 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: thanks to X and the Internet largely. I think X 519 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 1: was able to get it out there, but people found no. 520 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,480 Speaker 1: She did say not long ago that she thought that 521 00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: illegal illegal alien prison inmates should have taxpayer funded sex 522 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,920 Speaker 1: change operations. I mean, this is the kind of stuff 523 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 1: that you would think the right wing was making up 524 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 1: in a parody of the Democrat Party, but it is 525 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 1: the reality of the Democrat Party. So the fighter, choose 526 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 1: your fighter video. You know, I don't want to. Our 527 00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,840 Speaker 1: side is the side that has fun. And I'm not 528 00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: trying to be a scold about it, Lady. I don't 529 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: think anyone else really is either. It's just it wasn't 530 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 1: It wasn't funny or cool, and they're trying to be cool. 531 00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: Is the part of it that's It's not that you 532 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: can't do things that are careative and have fun in politics. 533 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: I think actually you should. But it just shows. 534 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:08,080 Speaker 1: How detached from reality the Democrats are that a bunch 535 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: of them would think that making this video was going 536 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: to appeal. Also the people they had do it. They 537 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: you know, what are you gonna have like Chuck Schumer 538 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: doing his workout routine. I remember this and I would 539 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: say this the time, and I got a lot of 540 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 1: hate for this, but maybe twenty eighteen time frame Clay, 541 00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 1: twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen. The cult of Ruth bader Ginsburg. Yeah, 542 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: was the beginning of the end for Democrats. They were bizarre, 543 00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 1: this little frail old woman who has now passed away 544 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: as we know, but the tiniest frailist old woman. There 545 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:41,920 Speaker 1: were all these, you know, memes and. 546 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: Things being shared about how hard core she is during workouts. 547 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 2: Look at her swinging a kettlebell. 548 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: If you people are insane, he's barely standing up. And 549 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: I'm watching workout videos of Ruth bader Ginsburg. Because of 550 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 1: the insolerity of so many of the of so many 551 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,960 Speaker 1: people on the left, they can convince them themselves of anything, 552 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 1: and so they can convince themselves that this video is 553 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: going to be something that goes over. 554 00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: Well, even Democrats thought it was cringe inducing. Well, that's 555 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,960 Speaker 2: because they had everything rigged for so long in their 556 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,880 Speaker 2: favor that it's like they started off in a sporting 557 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,880 Speaker 2: event with a forty point lead, and they thought that 558 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 2: they were elite competitors. And now that the algorithms are 559 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 2: being re established and re engineered, and there seems to 560 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 2: be an element of true legitimacy, marketplace of ideas out there. 561 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 2: Their ideas don't actually sell very well in the marketplace. 562 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 2: When Twitter was rigging everything to make it seem like 563 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 2: surgery for trans illegal immigrants was something that was hugely 564 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 2: important popular in the American populace, that looked like something 565 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: that made a lot of sense. Remember AOC. But one 566 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 2: of the most ridiculous ones that went megaviral to me 567 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 2: was AOC in her all white outfit standing by the 568 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 2: chain link fence like holding her hand out. Do you 569 00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 2: remember that when it went Megavitel for the children in cages? 570 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 2: Maybe the most inauthentic story of all Pelosi and Schumer 571 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:12,959 Speaker 2: taking a knee in the Capitol draped in kenta cloth. 572 00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 2: There's nothing that is more worthy of mockery that that 573 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,440 Speaker 2: was like a photo op than I think anything that 574 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 2: I can remembered American. 575 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: But like they these two people, Oh yeah, Nancy Pelosi's 576 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: down with the struggle in her fifty million dollars San 577 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: Francisco mansion with huge gates around it. She understands the street. 578 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 2: That was an amazing moment. I think they also had 579 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 2: masks on, didn't they? Because it was Jerry of course, 580 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 2: big double mask. There are a lot of images that 581 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 2: I think are kind of amazing. I mean, our former 582 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 2: Defense Secretary Voyd Austin in the mask with the huge 583 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:51,800 Speaker 2: face shield walking outdoors. Do you remember that? 584 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,600 Speaker 1: Even like Darth vagg I mean, I'll tell you this, 585 00:31:53,680 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: and I'm sure the same thing's true for you. There 586 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: is no photo of me that I took or know 587 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 1: of in existence where I was wearing a mask because 588 00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 1: I refused. You know, a lot of people thought it 589 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: was like, oh, it's COVID, Like let's take photos like 590 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: when I would go out walking my dog or whatever. 591 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: Like it's just no mask photos. 592 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: Now. 593 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 1: Somebody might have, you know, taken a photo of me 594 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: and I didn't know about her something. You know, you 595 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: had to wear a mask to go on a play 596 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,720 Speaker 1: and stuff like. I'm not saying I never wear a mask, obviously, 597 00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 1: but I never took any mask photos because I found 598 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,480 Speaker 1: it so degrading. I thought wearing a mask was like 599 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:28,040 Speaker 1: wearing a T shirt that said I'm a jackass with 600 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: no backbone. So I refused to pose in any photos 601 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,240 Speaker 1: of the mask. When I went to see Trump in 602 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 1: May of twenty twenty, no mask on We're shaking hands. 603 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: There is photo there are photos of me in a mask. 604 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 2: Buck. You know when it happened. When I testified in 605 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 2: front of Congress in March of twenty twenty one, they 606 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 2: demanded that everyone, because Democrats had control, you had to 607 00:32:53,120 --> 00:32:56,520 Speaker 2: testify in front of Congress wearing a mask. That's a 608 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 2: Paul speak into your microphone while bearing a mask. So 609 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 2: there are some photos of me like trying to deal 610 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 2: with the stupid mask and how do you talk in 611 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 2: a congressional hearing. Democrats made you have to wear a 612 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 2: mask and speak into a microphone because they controlled Congress 613 00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 2: at that point. 614 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 1: And whenever, no one really I have very few lib associates. 615 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 1: I have friends who are libs, but they don't talk 616 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 1: politics to me. 617 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 2: They know better. 618 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: But occasionally, when I've seen people bring up recently about 619 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: Trump cabinet picks, and they'll say like, well, do you 620 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,080 Speaker 1: think Pete heggsas someone brought this up to me, do 621 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 1: you think Pete heggser At is qualified? 622 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 2: I said one, yes, two. 623 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: The previous Secretary of Defense walked around double masked with 624 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 1: a plastic face shield thing hanging off his face in public. 625 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 2: He thought that was a good idea. 626 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 1: Yes, if you are so dumb that you thought one 627 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: of those plastic things like a welding mask, I was 628 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: going to protect you from anything. I don't know what 629 00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: to say, but I definitely don't want you in charge 630 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 1: of the play. 631 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 2: Military forces totally. And remember, I know it's been forgotten, 632 00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: but everybody wants to talk about Pete Hegseth and whether 633 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 2: he's qualified. Remember when the Defense Secretary was hospitalized in 634 00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 2: critical condition or serious condition and nobody knew at the 635 00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 2: White House. Remember that story that just kind of vanished, 636 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: but that Lloyd Austin was hospitalized in very serious physical 637 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 2: related conditions and nobody at the White House even knew, 638 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 2: Like he didn't notify them that he had been hospitalized, 639 00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 2: and one was in a significant position, and until the 640 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,600 Speaker 2: media contacted the White House, the White House didn't know. 641 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 2: And that story's just kind of vanished. But it's kind 642 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 2: of a big deal when the Defense Secretary is not 643 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 2: able to do the job and nobody in the White 644 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 2: House actually bothered to know. Nearly eighteen months after the 645 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 2: Hamas invasion, the brutal attack, life still not normal for 646 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 2: everyone in Israel.
