1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in everybody to the Clay Travis

3
00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,520
Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show. Great to have you here with me.

4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:16,520
Speaker 1: Clay on vacation, and we have much to discussed today

5
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 1: here in the world of well, a lot of things,

6
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:24,840
Speaker 1: but certainly banking, finance, the economy, the dollars in your

7
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: bank account, the dollars in your pocket. What is going

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: to happen. We've got the new inflation numbers. I'll break

9
00:00:31,760 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: that down for you. A little bit of a calm,

10
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 1: it seems right now a lot of the regional banks

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 1: that got smashed yesterday had a big rally, so it

12
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 1: seems like confidence in them has been at least four

13
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 1: now restored. We've also got a crisis with the NYPD

14
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: switching gears here to criminal justice and policing resigning at

15
00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: a record breaking pace. So that's an we're going to

16
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: discuss later on in the program. More fallout from that

17
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 1: Stanford Dean and students who were shouting down Fifth Circuit

18
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 1: Federal Appeals Court Judge Duncan. We'll discuss that. And we've

19
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: also got more on the border and oh and Trump

20
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: has some words about DeSantis in a new video that

21
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: we'll discuss here on the program. Trump seems to be

22
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,000
Speaker 1: of the mind that saying that Florida is not Rhnda

23
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:40,520
Speaker 1: Santis's success story, that that is going to be a

24
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 1: worthwhile line of attack. We will discuss that here in

25
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: just a little bit. But you all remember Donald Rumsfeld, right,

26
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:53,360
Speaker 1: Remember he was Secretary of Defense under George W. Bush.

27
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: Very much the first person I think for a lot

28
00:01:55,720 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: of people who comes to mind with the Iraq of

29
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: two thousand and three and a whole range of other

30
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: things from the War on Terror. And he had had

31
00:02:05,920 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: a bunch of prominent roles in the White House before that.

32
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: I mean, the guy had been in government for a

33
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: long time in different capacities. But that very famous little

34
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 1: moment where he was discussing known, known unknowns and unknown unknowns.

35
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,239
Speaker 1: I am concerned right now in the financial sector and

36
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: about things that would affect all of us when it

37
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 1: comes to the unknown unknowns. I'm just gonna put a

38
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 1: few things out there, right because, as I always tell you,

39
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: nobody can predict the future, but we can at least

40
00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 1: look at the odds, look at what's going on right now.

41
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 1: SVB bank, all the depositors Silicon Valley Bank, and the

42
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: people that were banking, they're thinking that they were just

43
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: putting money in a bank and not some version of

44
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 1: a very low yield hedge fund or a mutual fund

45
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: or something. They have been back stopped by this program

46
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: with the government, the FED, the FDIC, with you know,

47
00:03:05,800 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: the financial alchemy of it's not a bailout, but it

48
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 1: actually is a bailout, because if it wasn't a bailout,

49
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 1: the bank would have gone under. So it is a bailout.

50
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:19,239
Speaker 1: But it seems like people have calmed down a bit,

51
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 1: and as I said, the regional banks have recovered. But

52
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: there are some issues right now that are also out there.

53
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 1: First of all, inflation, what are the newest numbers, slows

54
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 1: to six percent from six point four percent a month ago.

55
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,000
Speaker 1: So the FED is now considering pausing its interest rate

56
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 1: hikes because of the banking crisis. But you see, this

57
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 1: all just takes us back to the basic problem. What

58
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: did I say yesterday? This all comes from a decision

59
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: to crush the bond market, destroy anyone's ability really to

60
00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:59,160
Speaker 1: get a pretty standard yield for savings accounts, treasury bonds,

61
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:03,680
Speaker 1: you name it. Bonds from companies bonds in general, you

62
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: couldn't get any income on the money that you had saved,

63
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: whether you're an individual or an institution, unless you took

64
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 1: riskier pathways. And the government decided alongside this whole process

65
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 1: that they were going to keep printing money through quantitative

66
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 1: easing through QE, so interest rates were kept artificially low.

67
00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 1: You can't get money from your savings account, and they

68
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: keep on pushing more money into the system. This has

69
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 1: caused inflation. How do you deal with the inflation? Well,

70
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: how do you bring it down? You have to let

71
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 1: interest rates normalize. The problem with letting interest rates normalize,

72
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: they say too quickly, is that there will be economic

73
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 1: pain associated with that. We started to see a little

74
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 1: bit of that with the bank failures that have just occurred,

75
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: the run on SVB, the banks that were on the brink,

76
00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 1: it seemed, and now we're told, oh, don't worry, it'll

77
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: all be fine. But the fundamental problem remains, what is

78
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: the Fed going to do? Now? What does this mean

79
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 1: for inflation? For the cost of everything that you need

80
00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:16,040
Speaker 1: to feed yourself, your family, pay your rent, gas up

81
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 1: your car, buy the things you need, whether it's healthcare

82
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 1: or a dozen eggs, buy the things you need day

83
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 1: in and day Yeah, what does it mean for you?

84
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 1: And the answer is they don't really know. And this

85
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 1: is where I get into the unknown unknowns and also

86
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 1: the plans that may start to get a little bit

87
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:37,160
Speaker 1: more attention out there. But first, let me put this

88
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: before we get into the possible plans, Let's look at

89
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: some things that are happening. So Credit Suisse has had

90
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:47,720
Speaker 1: its shares a huge, a huge bank, has had its

91
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 1: shares fall to an all time low. It is the

92
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 1: seventh largest investment bank in the world, and it has

93
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: said it has material weakness. So that's not that's not

94
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,240
Speaker 1: a good sign right now. Maybe that's just because of

95
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 1: a few specific things for Credit sweets. Okay, fine, you know,

96
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:16,359
Speaker 1: but people will point out that there have been problems

97
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,680
Speaker 1: there for a while Archagos I believe it was called

98
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,200
Speaker 1: the five point five billion dollars loss they took because

99
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,800
Speaker 1: of this Archagos fiasco. There going to get too deep

100
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 1: into the weeds on it, point being there are issues.

101
00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: That's a really big bank, that's a really big problem.

102
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 1: You've also got the staff of Facebook finding out today.

103
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 1: The tech sector has already been in a big decline

104
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 1: staff of Facebook finding out that ten thousand jobs are

105
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 1: about to get cut thirteen percent of all Facebook staff.

106
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: And Mark Zuckerberg, like the AI robot he is made real,

107
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,760
Speaker 1: is telling everybody to get ready for a quote new

108
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,919
Speaker 1: economic reality that will continue for many years. As in

109
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: they are doing efficiency. I actually read the letter they

110
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 1: put out, not a particularly warm and fuzzy one about

111
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:14,480
Speaker 1: the efficiency cuts Love be making at Facebook. This is

112
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: happening all over the place. Big tech companies that seem

113
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 1: like they were money printing machines and at the time

114
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: they were just a few years ago, are laying off

115
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 1: large numbers of people, a lot of the tech stocks

116
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 1: that were really drivers of the economy, and we're propping

117
00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 1: up the stock market overalls, where most of the games

118
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: were coming from. They've gotten whacked pretty badly in the

119
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: last well last year, depends on which one you're looking at,

120
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: but things are rough right now. If you also look

121
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: at car Loan defaults, another indicator, not quite housing defaults,

122
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,560
Speaker 1: but car Loan defaults, they are right now, way up.

123
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,040
Speaker 1: They're the highest they have been in a number of

124
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 1: a number of decades I think at this point. So

125
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: this is higher than it's been in quite some time,

126
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: and that's obviously really disconcerting as well. So what are

127
00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: they going to do about all of this now? I

128
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 1: brought up the unknown unknowns because look at how quickly

129
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: SVB turned into a financial crisis that required the entire

130
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 1: attention of the White House, the Fed, the Treasury, and

131
00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: what was it a month ago? Jim Kramer was on

132
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 1: TV by SVB, you know whatever? Sure, I think there's

133
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 1: actually there are people that they trade based upon the opposite.

134
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,400
Speaker 1: They actually manage money based on the opposite of what

135
00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: Jim Kramer recommends on his TV show. It's pretty funny.

136
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:46,839
Speaker 1: I think there's an index that someone's created where you

137
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 1: go in the opposite direction. But here you have here,

138
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: you have a series of major challenges to the economy,

139
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: and you have also a few things that have happened

140
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:03,520
Speaker 1: in rapid succession that no one seemed to see coming.

141
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,560
Speaker 1: And right right now it feels like, oh, maybe things

142
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: are getting a bit better. But those unknown unknowns they

143
00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: linger out there. What would it take for us to

144
00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:19,080
Speaker 1: really go off the cliffire financially systemic weakness in a

145
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 1: major bank somewhere? Well, Credit Suista said they have that,

146
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: but maybe that's not enough. Maybe they'll figure that out.

147
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 1: How many of these massive financial institutions have made a

148
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,320
Speaker 1: similar bet to what SVB did, or have taken other

149
00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: risky ventures onto their balance sheets that could really create enormous,

150
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 1: enormous problems down the line. So many of the people

151
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 1: you'll see on TV or economists and people in the

152
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 1: financial sector who don't actually manage money, and they've been

153
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 1: wrong many, many times in the past, but because they

154
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: have a long and establish history of being wrong, it

155
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,440
Speaker 1: seems they continue to go on TV and tell you

156
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: what's going to happen. They have no idea. I will

157
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:03,040
Speaker 1: tell you they have no idea what's going on. You

158
00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 1: know who looks really prescient right now would be Ron

159
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 1: Paul and the people that have said the FED which

160
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,040
Speaker 1: was really created to avoid, isn't it supposed to avoid

161
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:17,959
Speaker 1: the very situation we are in right now, all this inflation,

162
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:22,040
Speaker 1: all this money printing and then trying to control the recession.

163
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: Nobody wants there to be pain, but what goes up

164
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: must come down. I mean, there's some fundamental realities here

165
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: that a government structure is not really able to manage. Right.

166
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: We can't actually have people who decide that we're just

167
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:38,600
Speaker 1: never going to have it. If we could create a

168
00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 1: situation where we never have a painful economic downturn, well

169
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 1: of course we would want that. That's not reality, that's

170
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: not the way this is going to shake out. And

171
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 1: then that brings me to something else that I wanted

172
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: to spend a little more time on today, because I

173
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:56,199
Speaker 1: know people are are concerned about it, and I think

174
00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:01,280
Speaker 1: in the post COVID world of easy authoritarianism that we

175
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: fell into in this country, the notion of a central

176
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: bank digital currency a CBDC is something we all have

177
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 1: to take very seriously. Because here's how you may be

178
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 1: thinking about the situation right now of the economy. You

179
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: might be thinking, so the FED is screwing things up

180
00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,440
Speaker 1: once again. They're not a bunch of geniuses. They're they're

181
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 1: not you know, the wizard behind the curtain making everything

182
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: run and look great. They're actually creating a lot of

183
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: these dislocations and a lot of these distortions in the

184
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: market by FED policy. And now they're telling us, well,

185
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,040
Speaker 1: they're going to fix it, But they're they're riding the

186
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,960
Speaker 1: tiger or riding the dragon on this one. They're not

187
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 1: really determining how this thing goes. They're just doing their

188
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,440
Speaker 1: best to make it less bad than it would otherwise be.

189
00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 1: You would be thinking, well, we have to figure out

190
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,160
Speaker 1: a way to lessen the power of some of these

191
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:02,680
Speaker 1: institutions going forward, right, But you have to remember for

192
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:08,840
Speaker 1: government failure, failure never is met with we shouldn't do

193
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:11,960
Speaker 1: this next time, it's we need more power and more resources.

194
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,480
Speaker 1: So how do you get that? You might be thinking, well,

195
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,200
Speaker 1: we need to look more at I mean, the whole

196
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 1: range of things, right, and go back, go and listen

197
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: to all the old Ron Paul lectures. He's still giving lectures,

198
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 1: but go go and listen to the things that that

199
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,080
Speaker 1: he said about what the fed, the boom bust cycles,

200
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: and all the rest of it, what it does. And

201
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: people are talking about cryptocurrencies now and all the rest

202
00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 1: ways of getting outside of this centralized government control. But

203
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:42,520
Speaker 1: that's if you think the answer here is less central

204
00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:45,839
Speaker 1: government control. The people in charge, you know what they

205
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 1: think The answer is more more government control, more ability

206
00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: to determine exactly what you can do with the money

207
00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: that you have. And that brings us to a central

208
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 1: bank digital currency, which is something that I do want

209
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: to speak to you about a little bit, because it's

210
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:12,000
Speaker 1: already happening in places. There are different kinds of CBDCs

211
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: out there, but major economies, you know, like China, India,

212
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 1: they already have this. As you know, China has gotten

213
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:26,840
Speaker 1: rid of cryptocurrencies. So centralization, top down centralization of money

214
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: through a digital currency is happening elsewhere in the world,

215
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 1: and there are arguments underway right now about how to

216
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 1: do this in America. They've been happening for a while.

217
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: This is not a conspiracy theory. This is off the

218
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,760
Speaker 1: front pages of the Wall Street Journal. It's just a

219
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: question of how deep into this we go and what

220
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: we actually do with it. It's going to happen at

221
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: some level. So I want to talk to you about

222
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:56,599
Speaker 1: that because right now it feels to me like that

223
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,200
Speaker 1: come before the storm. I don't think we are out

224
00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 1: of the storm. We've just we had a squall, but

225
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,360
Speaker 1: the big one is still coming. That is the sense

226
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: that I have. And when you look at the options

227
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 1: that the people in charge have at this point, if

228
00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:17,199
Speaker 1: they have one shock from an unknown unknown, this whole

229
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 1: thing all of a sudden gets really really ugly. Look,

230
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 1: a lot of small business owners that survive the pandemic

231
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: have been taking advantage of sizeable refunds from the IRS.

232
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: The money is coming from an IRS program called the

233
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 1: Employee Retention Credit or ARC. Your business may be eligible

234
00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 1: for a payroll tax refund of up to twenty six

235
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: thousand dollars per employee kept on payroll during COVID nineteen.

Speaker 1: your business gets its refund. Many businesses believe they won't

242

Speaker 1: Sanity in an Insane World The Clay Travis and Buck

247
00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: Sexton Show. Welcome back to Clay an Buck. We have

248
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: David McCormick with us now. He is the former CEO

249
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:30,760
Speaker 1: of the Hedgewater of the Hedge Fund rather Bridgewater candidate

250
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: for US Senate in Pennsylvania in the last election cycle.

251
00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: A combat veteran West Point graduate, author of a new

252
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:42,520
Speaker 1: book that is out now, Superpower in Peril, a battle

253
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 1: Plan to renew America. David, good to have you back

254
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: on the program. Hey Bucks, thanks for having me. I

255
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: appreciate it. So we got a couple of things, big

256
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 1: things to get into here. First of all, breaking news

257
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 1: just in the last couple of minutes, a Russian jet

258
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 1: has collided with a US drone over the Black Sea

259
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 1: and international airspace. I want to get into all the

260
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 1: banking stuff. You ran Bridgewater, one of the biggest hedge

261
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: funds in the world. You know the banking stuff very well.

262
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: But first tapping into your combat veteran side. You went

263
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: to West Point. You have served in different government national

264
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:21,280
Speaker 1: security related roles. How concerned are you about the trajectory

265
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: right now in Ukraine. Well, I'm very concerned about it

266
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,560
Speaker 1: in the sense that you know, Putin is an aggressor here.

267
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,720
Speaker 1: He has challenged the sovereign sovereignty of Ukraine. And I

268
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 1: think we are in the right position to be supporting

269
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 1: the Ukrainians because I think it's in US interest but

270
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,480
Speaker 1: we got to do that with a lot of care,

271
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: and we got to make sure the things that we're

272
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:48,360
Speaker 1: sending there aren't being corrupted and used in ways it's

273
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 1: inconsistent with the mission. And we got to be careful.

274
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: And incidents like you describe are the things that are unexpected.

275
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 1: We got to be careful that US troops don't in

276
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,840
Speaker 1: any way get drawn in. So I'm a among those

277
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: who think what's happening in Ukraine is an important US interest.

278
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 1: I think China is watching carefully, but I also understand

279
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,399
Speaker 1: those who are skeptical, and we have to be careful

280
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 1: not to get drawn into something bigger. Now on under

281
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 1: the financial side of things, there's a lot of messages

282
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:18,640
Speaker 1: to clean up right now in a bunch of different

283
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 1: a bunch of different areas of the world. Yeah, so,

284
00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:26,760
Speaker 1: so tell us. I mean, first of all, is the bailout,

285
00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: the backstopping, whatever it is, Is this the right thing

286
00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:33,160
Speaker 1: to do? How do you see things as they are

287
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: right now? Before we get into where the financial and

288
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: sector and economics sector are going. But what do you

289
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: think about what they've done up to this point? Well,

290
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: I think you got to start and I'll be very

291
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: brief but you've got to look at how we got

292
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: here because it answers part of your question. So we

293
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: are here because of excess excess over the last ten

294
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: years in terms of too much fiscal spending, but extreme

295
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,919
Speaker 1: excess in the last two years under Joe Biden, enormous

296
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 1: amount of spending, forty percent increase in discretionary spending. We're

297
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:05,760
Speaker 1: an all time high in our debt of thirty one

298
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,400
Speaker 1: trillion dollars. And that excess of spending has been matched

299
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 1: with extremely low interest rates for more than a decade.

300
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 1: And as a consequence of that, we have inflation. And

301
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:19,880
Speaker 1: that inflation is something we got to control. And so

302
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,760
Speaker 1: the Fed, ironically, in trying to help stop the problem

303
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,200
Speaker 1: it created, raised interest rates quickly. And now we've got

304
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: a gap between the assets and the liabilities, and that

305
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: is across the whole banking sector. It's not just across SBB,

306
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: and that's the macro problem. Now. Second SBB, Silicon Valley

307
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: Bank wasn't terribly managed a bank terrible risk management. It's

308
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: appropriate that the whole leadership team got fired, But the

309
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,320
Speaker 1: regulators made a big mistake here. The San Francisco Federal

310
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,239
Speaker 1: Reserve should have known this It's obvious what was going

311
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:57,159
Speaker 1: to happen when interest rates rise, that the balance sheets

312
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 1: on the banks are gonna be underwater. They're gonna have

313
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 1: to sell assets. And because these assets were so the

314
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,439
Speaker 1: deposits are so concentrated, it's created a real problem, not

315
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:07,919
Speaker 1: just for Silicon Valley Bank but for others. Now, in

316
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,200
Speaker 1: terms of what the government has done, I think it's

317
00:19:11,359 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: it's appropriate the equity holders lose their lose their money.

318
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:17,680
Speaker 1: I think it's appropriate that the credit holders lose lose

319
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:22,320
Speaker 1: their money. I'm very concerned about the bailout of these

320
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:26,399
Speaker 1: uninsured deposits, and I I'm concerned for two reasons. First,

321
00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,000
Speaker 1: you know, the guy who had the landscaping business and

322
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: landscaped Silicon Valley Bank and the company would have ten

323
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: thousand dollars. He lost that ten thousand dollars. But the

324
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: rich Silicon Valley venture capitalists got one hundred percent on

325
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,639
Speaker 1: their dollars, and uh, and that that seems wrong, that

326
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:47,199
Speaker 1: seems inappropriate. Second, we got a moral hazard. We got

327
00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 1: a moral hazard problem where there's eight trillion dollars of

328
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:55,200
Speaker 1: uninsured bank deposits, and so did we now just set

329
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 1: a precedent where we're going to bail out eight trillion

330
00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,560
Speaker 1: dollars of of insured bank deposits if we need to,

331
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: I don't think so. So we're sending a dangerous press,

332
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,359
Speaker 1: and then that for that reason I would oppose it.

333
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:10,680
Speaker 1: Oppose a bailout of any kind. We're speaking to David McCormick.

334
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,359
Speaker 1: He's a former combat veteran ran for Senate in Pennsylvania

335
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: in a tough primary there against doctor Oz and also

336
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: is the author of a new book that is out,

337
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 1: Superpower in Peril, A Battle Plan to New America. All right, David,

338
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,120
Speaker 1: where is this all going? I mean credit suite? Back

339
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 1: to the financial thing, because people are worried about their money,

340
00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,000
Speaker 1: I think rightfully, so, they're worried about their savings and

341
00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,679
Speaker 1: they're worried about their jobs. So what happens now? I

342
00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: mean credit suits. They're saying, has I think that, you know,

343
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,439
Speaker 1: systemic issues or something? There is some term that they

344
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,840
Speaker 1: used to say it's not looking good over there. And

345
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:47,919
Speaker 1: there are some other banks I'm sure that also have

346
00:20:48,000 --> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: similar problems, maybe not as badly as SVB, But do

347
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,560
Speaker 1: you feel like this is the beginning of a real

348
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 1: plunge or has this is this something that if we

349
00:20:57,160 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: handle appropriately, or is handled appropriately, We're not heading into

350
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: a major recession. Well. One of the things I've learned

351
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 1: along the years is to just have humility about the

352
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 1: ability to predict anything. Here, I would say that a

353
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 1: couple of things. In response to your question. The biggest

354
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,200
Speaker 1: important thing in banking is to have confidence. Confidence in

355
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: the banking system. The deposits that old people put in

356
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 1: the banks are not available to take out because they

357
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,479
Speaker 1: lend those, so there's a fraction of the deposits available.

358
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,840
Speaker 1: So people have to have confidence, and the governments try

359
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: to take steps to put confidence in place. We'll see

360
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: how much it works. The underlying problem that I described,

361
00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,880
Speaker 1: where people have bought assets and had long duration assets

362
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:37,760
Speaker 1: and now they're worth a lot less is a big problem.

363
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,879
Speaker 1: And the inflation that we have in our economy is

364
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: likely going to lead the FED to raise rates to

365
00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: the point where we go into recession, and that is

366
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 1: going to be very challenging for our economy, and it's

367
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 1: part of the broader thing I try to address in

368
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: my book about Superpower and Peril. I think this is

369
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: just evidence of a decline Americans in decline economically. From

370
00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 1: a national security perspective, spirits and the client's uninevitable, but

371
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,359
Speaker 1: neither is renewal. It depends on what we do. And

372
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 1: so my book Superpower and Peril lays out the plan

373
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 1: for educating our people, for confronting China and for securing America,

374
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 1: and part of that is to get our fiscal house

375
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: in order and to get back to more normal policy.

376
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: We've lived in access for a long time, and whenever

377
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 1: there's access, there creates all sorts of distortions in the markets.

378
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 1: And that's what we're dealing with right now. Is there

379
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 1: any way you think realistically that the Fed will be

380
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: able to navigate these interest rate raises without plunging us

381
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: into what even the Biden administration will have to admit

382
00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:43,119
Speaker 1: is a recession. Yeah, listen, I think it's gonna be

383
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,520
Speaker 1: very difficult. And you know, if you go back, and

384
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: I just read recently the book about Paul Bulker during

385
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: his time there, and what happens with inflation is there's

386
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:54,200
Speaker 1: you know, if you take the pedal off too quickly

387
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 1: and lower rates too quickly, inflation comes back. And so

388
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:59,199
Speaker 1: you've got to break the back of inflation, both with

389
00:22:59,280 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 1: your movement, with your moves and interest rates. But also

390
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,480
Speaker 1: with your rhetoric and signaling. And I think it's going

391
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: to be very difficult not to be very tough minded

392
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: on inflation, because the inflation has an insidious impact on

393
00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: our economy and is very challenging for politically. So I

394
00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,760
Speaker 1: think we're likely to go into recession. I think it's

395
00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 1: likely going to be a tough period, and that's why

396
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,280
Speaker 1: I think a renewal agenda is really important. There's lots

397
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 1: of problems in the country just beyond the economic ones

398
00:23:26,359 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 1: you and I are talking about, and so my argument

399
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: in the book is that we need leadership as conservatives

400
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 1: that's going to put great candidates forward that can win

401
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: primaries and win general elections, is going to put a

402
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: positive agenda forward for how to solve these problems, and

403
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,320
Speaker 1: it's going to do the work to get absentee ballots

404
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,360
Speaker 1: and voter registration so we can win elections and take

405
00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: the country in the right direction. And this book is

406
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:53,720
Speaker 1: meant to be a blueprint for how to do that.

407
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 1: A battle plan to renew america superpower in peril is

408
00:23:57,680 --> 00:23:59,920
Speaker 1: the book. If We'll let you go, David, you think

409
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:02,160
Speaker 1: you're not running for president because this book looks like

410
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:04,119
Speaker 1: the kind of book somebody might write if they were

411
00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: running for president. Well, first, I started writing the book

412
00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 1: before I ran for the Senate. At this point, now

413
00:24:10,520 --> 00:24:11,879
Speaker 1: that the books done, my wife did tell me I

414
00:24:11,920 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: got to get a job of some sort bucks So

415
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,920
Speaker 1: I don't I don't think. I don't think she's very

416
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,280
Speaker 1: open minded about that. But I have been thinking about

417
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: running for the Senate in Pennsylvania. I've not decided yet.

418
00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 1: There's twenty four Senator Casey set will be open for election,

419
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 1: and and so we'll think about that and pray about

420
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: it and make a decision later this year. I suspect gotcha,

421
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,520
Speaker 1: So maybe running for something fair enough. David McCormick, everybody's

422
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: superpower and peril. David, thanks for calling in. Appreciate it.

423
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 1: Thanks Buck, thanks to talk to you. You know, we're

424
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 1: big fans of the herbal supplement company Chalk. The product

425
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,120
Speaker 1: speaks for itself, but the ownership is really impressive too.

426
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:51,040

428
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:57,320
Speaker 1: drinking more, a lot of unhealthy takeout stuff, the gyms

429
00:24:57,320 --> 00:25:01,520
Speaker 1: were closed, Chalk was advocating for healthier lifestyles. Chalk source

433

Speaker 1: you get your podcast. Our three of Clan Buck starts

450
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 1: right now. And Joe Biden's got a problem. Everybody always

451
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 1: got a lot of problems. But one thing. We just

452
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: had a breaking news alert in the last hour that

453
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:22,360
Speaker 1: a Russian fighter jet has collided in international airspace over

454
00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 1: the Black Sea with a US Reaper drone. But that's

455
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:32,920
Speaker 1: gonna raise tensions a little bit there. What's going on?

456
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,359
Speaker 1: What are the chances of that just happening. Perhaps the

457
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 1: Russian jet was trying to get a much closer look

458
00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 1: at the drone. Who knows. We will find out more

459
00:26:44,359 --> 00:26:46,920
Speaker 1: well that Pentagon will tell us some stuff and then

460
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 1: we'll find out more beyond that, I am sure in

461
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,359
Speaker 1: the hours ahead. But something to keep an eye on.

462
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,800
Speaker 1: But the bigger political problem that Joe Biden has is

463
00:26:54,880 --> 00:27:00,920
Speaker 1: that his party has gone nuts. And this is something

464
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,160
Speaker 1: that you see on a range of issues where even

465
00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: Democrats are starting to say, some Democrats, this is just

466
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,840
Speaker 1: too much. I can't go along with this. And they're

467
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,960
Speaker 1: not areas, they're not fringe beliefs of the Democrat Party.

468
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: They're opposing. They are things that are coming from the

469
00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:22,120
Speaker 1: White House itself. They're the most mainstream of Democrat positions

470
00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:26,120
Speaker 1: because in many cases they are now the mandatory positions

471
00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 1: that you must hold if you are going to be

472
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,560
Speaker 1: a Democrat who is held in good standing by the left,

473
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: by the you know, the Jacobins who run that party,

474
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 1: the radicals, the Marxists. So that's interesting, that's worth keeping

475
00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,720
Speaker 1: in mind. Right, this is now required orthodoxy for a

476
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:52,640
Speaker 1: lot of Democrats that are causing problems for them. And

477
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:56,160
Speaker 1: I had mentioned this in the first hour. I wanted

478
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,600
Speaker 1: to just bring you back to the situation of the

479
00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:07,400
Speaker 1: Stanford University, well, Stanford Law School, part of the university aftermath,

480
00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: when you had Judge Duncan of the Fifth Circuit who

481
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:16,040
Speaker 1: was shouted down by a bunch of of of screeching harpies,

482
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 1: I mean, just lunatics in that room. I saw the

483
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: whole video. I can't play the audio. There's so much,

484
00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:23,840
Speaker 1: there's so much cursing and shouting that you can just

485
00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 1: imagine they have a federal judge invited to a law

486
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,159
Speaker 1: school to speak to them about the law. He's actually

487
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: doing the interpretation of law on the Fifth Circuit. You

488
00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 1: think that law students might think they have something to learn,

489
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 1: and even if they don't that they would sit there

490
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 1: and be respectful. They're supposed to be officers of the court.

491
00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: But really the law schools have become social justice activist

492
00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:51,239
Speaker 1: training centers. That's what they are. That's what the so

493
00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 1: called elite lass was. I thought it was so funny

494
00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 1: too that one of the one of the you know,

495
00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 1: just childish students says shouted something like, yeah, well, you

496
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,800
Speaker 1: couldn't even get into this law school. It's so interesting.

497
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:07,000
Speaker 1: I want to I wonder how many of the people

498
00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 1: in that room that were shouting at the judge got in,

499
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: not because their el sets were so high, but under

500
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 1: the diversity and inclusion exceptions to what the rest of

501
00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: the student body is supposed to achieve in terms of

502
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:24,640
Speaker 1: grades and scores. I would just wonder about that. I

503
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: would wonder how many of them are really as smart

504
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 1: as I think they are. And there's also a difference

505
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:35,920
Speaker 1: between cognitive ability or test taking ability and wisdom. And

506
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,680
Speaker 1: as all of you listening to this, especially those of

507
00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,400
Speaker 1: you who have lived more years on this earth than

508
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 1: I have, no wisdom is the most important. Wisdom is

509
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,239
Speaker 1: the thing that really matters and makes the difference, and

510
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 1: that room had none of it. They lined up just

511
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,240
Speaker 1: this is the last day or so reporting from the

512
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:57,280
Speaker 1: Washington Free Beacon that these activists lined up to do

513
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: a shame walk of sorts for the dean who apologized

514
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:08,400
Speaker 1: on behalf of Stanford University to the judge. So now

515
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: more students are shaming publicly the dean who apologize for

516
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:20,560
Speaker 1: the behavior of the childish, maniac students that we're shouting

517
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,480
Speaker 1: down this This is Biden's Democrat Party. This is why

518
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:28,120
Speaker 1: I'm telling you this. These little activists, social justice warriors

519
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: at Stanford Law School. They've been doing this for years now.

520
00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: This is their mentality has been the same, stretching back

521
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:39,480
Speaker 1: for the last decade. And so they're now there are

522
00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 1: you know, they're they're people that work in the DOJ

523
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,720
Speaker 1: and they work for the White House, and they're they're

524
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:48,560
Speaker 1: in the structures of power there. This is not just

525
00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: student radicals who will deal with the reality of life

526
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 1: when they get out. They are the Democrat base. Now,

527
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 1: they are the Democrat Party. This is why Biden is

528
00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:03,000
Speaker 1: in this uficult position, not that difficult for Joe Biden

529
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: because he is a man with no honor or integrity

530
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:09,160
Speaker 1: to protect in the first place, because Joe Biden has

531
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: no integrity to protect. He has a lot of latitude

532
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 1: for what he can do. It doesn't matter what does

533
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 1: he believe, what should he believe? That's always the Biden response.

534
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: Who is Joe Biden? Who do you need him to be?

535
00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:25,960
Speaker 1: That's how Joe Biden approaches everything in politics and life,

536
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: stretching back for as long as he's been a public figure,

537
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 1: which is longer than I've been alive. So he's the

538
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 1: right guy for this job. But it's a difficult job

539
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: pretending to be something when it counts with the voters,

540
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 1: while he is something entirely else when it comes to

541
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,760
Speaker 1: the governance that he presides over as the head of

542
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 1: the Democrat Party. Whether he's a puppet or not doesn't matter.

543
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,760
Speaker 1: He's still the figurehead. Right. So this brings me to

544
00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: this interview he did on The Daily Show, and here

545
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:02,400
Speaker 1: Joe Biden has asked about there are a number of

546
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 1: states that are that are banning transgender surgery for children.

547
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,000
Speaker 1: How many of you listening to this right now had

548
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 1: never even heard of transgender surgery, including doctors. By the way,

549
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:20,000
Speaker 1: transgender surgery for children until the last five years made

550
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 1: the last two or three years. I think the answer

551
00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: is a lot. Almost everybody. This is new. There are

552
00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,560
Speaker 1: no long term studies. There is no real sense as

553
00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 1: to how this could be medicine because this is not

554
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 1: studied in any meaningful way. They won't talk about it.

555
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: They just want to be able to do it. They

556
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: want to be able to do gender mutilation of children

557
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: and call it medicine. And they are. You see how

558
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,880
Speaker 1: they how they have turned on the issue of abortion.

559
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: For example, the left to Democrat party used to say, oh,

560
00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 1: it's just you know, safe, legal and rare, or oh,

561
00:32:57,360 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 1: we wanted to be something that people women can shoot

562
00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:01,840
Speaker 1: for themselves as a freedom, but you know, we're not

563
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,640
Speaker 1: going to celebrate it. Oh no, And then eventually they

564
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,840
Speaker 1: were celebrating it. You know, take my word for it.

565
00:33:06,880 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 1: You'll see women at these pro abortion marches. You know,

566
00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: Shout your Abortion was a whole campaign for Shout your

567
00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: Abortion a whole campaign for a while, celebrities talking about

568
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:18,920
Speaker 1: how abortion was such a great decision for them, Usually

569
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 1: women who were actresses, who you know are on marriage

570
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 1: number five and you know, I've had I've made a

571
00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 1: mess of their lives. But anyway, though, they'll say Oh,

572
00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 1: abortion was such a great, great thing for my career.

573
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: That's usually what they say. So they do end up

574
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 1: celebrating it, and they're willing to completely forget about the

575
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,640
Speaker 1: morality that is involved and that the loss of a life.

576
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,120
Speaker 1: So given their position on an abortion, you have to

577
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: understand if left unchecked, the psychological contagion of gender ideology

578
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: for kids, for adolescence, for prepubescent children, that gender contagion

579
00:33:55,920 --> 00:34:00,400
Speaker 1: ideology is something that they will they will go from

580
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 1: saying it is rare. Why do you focus on it?

581
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 1: It is rare? Why are you making such a big

582
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,080
Speaker 1: deal of it too? It is mandatory and you better

583
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 1: celebrated or else. You know, this is coming the slippery slope,

584
00:34:13,080 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 1: as everyone says on Twitter these days, is the undefeated champion.

585
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,600
Speaker 1: You know what they're going to do. So we stand

586
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 1: and fight or we know where they're going to take

587
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,919
Speaker 1: this politically, stand in fight, we stand up and say

588
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,800
Speaker 1: enough is enough or the pathway is clear. I bring

589
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 1: you Joe Biden, good old fashioned Joe guy was alive

590
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: when the Second World War was ending, right, Joe Biden's

591
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 1: been around forever. He's such a traditional Democrat, a union

592
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,800
Speaker 1: you know, lunch pail carrying, pro labor democrat, you know,

593
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,280
Speaker 1: all this sort of stuff that doesn't even exist anymore,

594
00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 1: by the way, but that's what they'll say. That guy,

595
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,560
Speaker 1: Grandpa Joe, you can count on him. Here he is

596
00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 1: when speaking about gender mutilation of children. Teenagers, thirteen year olds,

597
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: fourteen year olds have their genitalia removed, and they say transition.

598
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:12,680
Speaker 1: There is no transition. You know. Jordan Peterson, bless him.

599
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,960
Speaker 1: You know, he takes he takes important shots on important

600
00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: issues he may have seen recently. And he got a

601
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,880
Speaker 1: little profane, he got a little fiery on Twitter. He

602
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:24,560
Speaker 1: pointed out, there is no transitioning of a pianist to

603
00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: a vagina. That is not possible for humanity, for a

604
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 1: human being, it cannot be done. It is not a

605
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 1: thing that is medically possible. So then why do they

606
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,879
Speaker 1: say we're going to create No, they don't, and that's

607
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:41,320
Speaker 1: for adults. They want to try similar procedures involving children.

608
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 1: This is madness, This is monstrous. And yet Joe Biden,

609
00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,799
Speaker 1: good old fashioned, middle of the road Joe. Here he

610
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 1: is when he's asked about transgender kids play fifteen. What's

611
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,879
Speaker 1: going on in Florida? Is my mother would say close

612
00:35:56,920 --> 00:35:59,479
Speaker 1: to sinful. I mean, it's just terrible what they're doing.

613
00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 1: Not like you know, a kid wakes up one morning

614
00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:04,720
Speaker 1: and says, you know, I decided I want to become

615
00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 1: a man, or I want to become a woman, or

616
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,560
Speaker 1: I want to change. I mean, what are they thinking

617
00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,000
Speaker 1: about here? We're human beings. They love, they have feelings,

618
00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:15,439
Speaker 1: they have inclinations that are I mean, it's just to me,

619
00:36:15,719 --> 00:36:18,920
Speaker 1: is I don't know? It's cruel. And the way we

620
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 1: do it is we make sure we pass legislation like

621
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,319
Speaker 1: we passed on same sex marriage. If you best with that,

622
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 1: you're breaking the law and you're gonna be held accountable.

623
00:36:29,360 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 1: First of all, notice the Biden go to he has

624
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,239
Speaker 1: he can't really just discuss what it is that his

625
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: side wants, so he does this. You know, man, we're

626
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: talking about human beings, you know, people who love and

627
00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: feel and yeah we all know that, buddy, We're talking

628
00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 1: about not gender mutilating children, which will ruin their lives.

629
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:55,319
Speaker 1: It will ruin their lives. Okay, start with that. He

630
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,240
Speaker 1: acts like that's the position of kindness. Oh, a fourteen

631
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 1: year old girl will to be a fourteen year old

632
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 1: boy because some activist therapist, had three sessions with her.

633
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:09,520
Speaker 1: Let's do it, Let's go take him to the doctor.

634
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:11,520
Speaker 1: Oh the parents. Let me ask you this. Do you

635
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 1: think Joe Biden would sign a law that would prohibit

636
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:20,360
Speaker 1: parents stopping gender transition surgery for their kids if a

637
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:23,880
Speaker 1: medical professional slash activist decided that it was appropriate. I

638
00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 1: think he would. I think he wouldn't a heartbeat. I

639
00:37:25,880 --> 00:37:28,200
Speaker 1: think that Joe Biden has been a lie his entire

640
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 1: public life. All that is his lies With this guy,

641
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:35,400
Speaker 1: he stands for nothing. He is a figment of the

642
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 1: imagination of the voters who have been tricked into voting

643
00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:41,040
Speaker 1: for him, who think they're getting something else. The Left knows.

644
00:37:41,360 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 1: They think he's great. He's the trojan horse. He's the

645
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 1: vessel for everybody who's, ah, I'm a moderate and he's

646
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: going to be normal and everything else. No, he's not.

647
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:55,080
Speaker 1: Joe Biden exists to be a facade that the Left

648
00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 1: can rely on to make them seem less insane because

649
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 1: of his appearance, of his grin, because he's always lunch

650
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,920
Speaker 1: pale Joe riding the chew chew into DC every day.

651
00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:09,360
Speaker 1: Here he is talking about transgender surgery for teenagers, and

652
00:38:09,480 --> 00:38:12,120
Speaker 1: he does the usual come on, man's people, you don't

653
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:16,640
Speaker 1: like go feelings. Yeah, exactly. These are little human beings

654
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,360
Speaker 1: who should not be subject to the mass psychosis of

655
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 1: leftist activists and the obvious social contagion that is transgenderism

656
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,520
Speaker 1: for kids, which just has exploded in the last few years,

657
00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 1: up thousands of a percent. And we're not even saying. Look,

658
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 1: they we're not even talking about adults. Adults want to

659
00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,239
Speaker 1: you know, they want to have, you know, different surgeries

660
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,719
Speaker 1: and you know, sho change their names to all these things.

661
00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:43,520
Speaker 1: They're adults. They get to choose all that we're talking

662
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:48,240
Speaker 1: about protections for children. And where does Joe Biden stand

663
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 1: on this? He's saying, it's not like they wake up

664
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:53,719
Speaker 1: one day and decide, I'm just gonna know, that's exactly

665
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 1: what they do. Because the society around them, because TikTok,

666
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,080
Speaker 1: because the Democrat Party, because Holly would all, because people

667
00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:04,719
Speaker 1: they look up to who have neither wisdom nor morality

668
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,319
Speaker 1: to draw upon, tell them, this will make you the

669
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:12,520
Speaker 1: center of attention, This will make you live your truth,

670
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:15,520
Speaker 1: This will make your life better. They're being lied to.

671
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:20,560
Speaker 1: They are being lied to, and Joe Biden is the

672
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:24,000
Speaker 1: liar in chief. That's what you see here. So all

673
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:28,000
Speaker 1: this stuff about, Oh he's gonna return us to normalcy. Oh,

674
00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be fine. You know you can trust good

675
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 1: old Joe. Grandpa Joe gets asked about gender mutilation of

676
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,120
Speaker 1: miners and what does he say, Come on, man, we

677
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 1: need to pass a law. And he mentions, he mentions

678
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,600
Speaker 1: the gay marriage, which is for adults. What does that

679
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 1: have to do with gender mutilation of miners for transgender purposes?

680
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:50,000
Speaker 1: What does he even think he's talking? Doesn't even matter.

681
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 1: He's just there to fool enough of the easily fooled

682
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: so that the great mass of the left can get

683
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:02,840
Speaker 1: their way. That's it, and it's it's wrong, folks, It's wrong.

684
00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:08,000
Speaker 1: He's something that everyone needs to understand. It's all based

685
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:12,840
Speaker 1: in all based in lies, all based in misrepresentations. Sometimes,

686
00:40:12,920 --> 00:40:14,880
Speaker 1: my friends, it feels like our world is getting crazier

687
00:40:14,920 --> 00:40:17,880
Speaker 1: by the day. You don't say there was ever a

688
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 1: call to attention on being prepared for anything and everything.

689
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 1: I think this is as good a time as we've

690
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,000
Speaker 1: seen in a long time. That's why we seriously recommend

691
00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 1: stocking up on emergency food as one part of that.

692
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,280
Speaker 1: It's not a reality that anyone us like to face,

693
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 1: but it's preparation that we have to embrace and make

694
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,800
Speaker 1: our own. Go to my Patriot Supplied dot com today

00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: in buck gets going right now. Everybody. Thank you very

710
00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: much for being here. And the positions of various GOP

711
00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: contenders on Ukraine. It's something that got a bit of

712
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:36,560
Speaker 1: attention last night. Tucker Carlson reached out his show and

713
00:41:37,200 --> 00:41:42,480
Speaker 1: reached out to contenders for the GOP domination because we

714
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:44,920
Speaker 1: now have a full scale war going on in Europe

715
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:52,520
Speaker 1: between two advanced industrialized economies and one of them has

716
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:53,920
Speaker 1: a whole lot of nukes and a whole lot of

717
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:57,560
Speaker 1: energy reserves. And this is a big deal. It's also

718
00:41:57,560 --> 00:41:59,800
Speaker 1: in the backdrop of all the things we're seeing economically

719
00:41:59,840 --> 00:42:03,479
Speaker 1: play out right now too. You can't just leave all

720
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 1: this stuff on the side. This is factoring into the

721
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:10,960
Speaker 1: sense of public unease right now. And I'll tell you this,

722
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:14,279
Speaker 1: Does it feel like things are good right now in

723
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: the country honestly? Economically? Does it feel like things are good?

724
00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:24,320
Speaker 1: On the world stage? Biden is soon to be out

725
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:27,640
Speaker 1: there telling everybody he is running for reelection and what

726
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,799
Speaker 1: a great economy it is. I mean, he's going to

727
00:42:29,920 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: make these claims. The media is going to back him up.

728
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 1: And I'm just here to tell you they're lying to you.

729
00:42:36,680 --> 00:42:39,520
Speaker 1: They're lying. Do you you know that? But get ready

730
00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:43,359
Speaker 1: for it because it should annoy you. It should be

731
00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 1: something that you find very frustrating. There should be a

732
00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:49,520
Speaker 1: part of you that feels like, wow, they are brazen,

733
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: because what's their alternative to admit that Biden is an

734
00:42:53,239 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: imbecile to agree with Republicans that many of the things,

735
00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: whether it's the reduction in pursuing fossil fuels that has

736
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:08,480
Speaker 1: happened because of the Biden administration, the decisions that have

737
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 1: been made across the board when it comes to regulation, taxation,

738
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:18,439
Speaker 1: that all these things make us poorer, more depressed, less

739
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,719
Speaker 1: free as a nation, less prosperous. No, they're never going

740
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:25,000
Speaker 1: to met any of that. But Biden's got his handsful

741
00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:29,359
Speaker 1: right now because there's only so much the media can

742
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:33,480
Speaker 1: do to make things seem better than they are. And

743
00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:37,080
Speaker 1: on the issue of Ukraine and Russia, I do think

744
00:43:37,120 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 1: that the GOP is going to have a bit of

745
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: a fight on its hands here. Internally, Democrats are They're

746
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,279
Speaker 1: the party of if there's a war that we can

747
00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:51,320
Speaker 1: fund or fight in that doesn't actually benefit America, Democrats

748
00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: are all in. Democrats and Lindsay Graham sign them up.

749
00:43:54,840 --> 00:43:57,440
Speaker 1: I mean, not to fight, but sign them up to

750
00:43:57,480 --> 00:44:02,480
Speaker 1: send your children and your money to that conflict. Republicans

751
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 1: at least tend to be more likely to there a

752
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:09,920
Speaker 1: lot of there's a lot of provisos, a lot of

753
00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,200
Speaker 1: caveats in this because I just mentioned that Lindsay Graham,

754
00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:16,920
Speaker 1: but there are others as well. But there are at

755
00:44:16,960 --> 00:44:21,479
Speaker 1: least conservatives within the GOP tent who if there's gonna

756
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,400
Speaker 1: be a war, it's to protect us and protect our interests.

757
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:29,480
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe they're wrong about those interests, or maybe they're miscalculating,

758
00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:32,960
Speaker 1: but at least that's their purpose. So what are we

759
00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:35,000
Speaker 1: doing in Ukraine right now? And one are the various

760
00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:38,480
Speaker 1: candidates for on the Republican side think about it. I

761
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 1: thought it was very interesting that you had Ron de Santis,

762
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:46,800
Speaker 1: who is not yet running for president, and everyone is

763
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: assuming that he will run, but we're not certain of that.

764
00:44:51,440 --> 00:44:54,640
Speaker 1: Obviously hasn't happened yet. Here's what he shed about America's

765
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,919
Speaker 1: objective in Ukraine, And again hat tip to Tucker's show

766
00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:02,319
Speaker 1: forgetting this information, and Tucker read this on Fox last night.

767
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,680
Speaker 1: Without question, peace should be the objective. The US should

768
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:10,280
Speaker 1: not provide assistance that could require the deployment of American

769
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:14,759
Speaker 1: troops or enable Ukraine to engage in offensive operations beyond

770
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:18,840
Speaker 1: its borders. F sixteens and long range missiles should therefore

771
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:22,520
Speaker 1: be off the table. These moves would risk explicitly drawing

772
00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,520
Speaker 1: the United States into the conflict and drawing US closer

773
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:30,680
Speaker 1: to a hot war between the world's two largest nuclear powers.

774
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:37,360
Speaker 1: That risk is unacceptable. I agree that risk is unacceptable.

775
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:42,480
Speaker 1: I think that is an eloquent and well thought out

776
00:45:42,520 --> 00:45:48,839
Speaker 1: position from Rhonda santists on this one. Trump was in Iowa,

777
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 1: and I mean he put this in. He also responded

778
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:53,160
Speaker 1: in writing, but I thought it he'd better to hear

779
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:57,799
Speaker 1: this that Trump said, this is clip three. He is

780
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: the only candidate who will make this promise that he

781
00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:05,920
Speaker 1: will prevent World War three. Play it standing before you today.

782
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 1: I am the only candidate who can make this promise

783
00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 1: I will prevent World War three because I really believe

784
00:46:14,520 --> 00:46:22,880
Speaker 1: you're going to have world working. He will prevent world Now,

785
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:25,839
Speaker 1: that's an important promise to be able to keep. That's

786
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:28,960
Speaker 1: something that really we all, you know what we're all

787
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,560
Speaker 1: I would well, I think all Democrats would even go

788
00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:34,799
Speaker 1: along with that one. Certainly all same people would go

789
00:46:34,840 --> 00:46:39,720
Speaker 1: along with wanting a future Trump administration to be successful

790
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,920
Speaker 1: in keeping the promise of averting World War three. I

791
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:46,840
Speaker 1: think that's a big deal. We all know that. So

792
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,839
Speaker 1: that's a central issue. I think you're going to see

793
00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:52,800
Speaker 1: this getting fought out a whole lot more in public.

794
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,680
Speaker 1: I also think you're going to see an increase in

795
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:01,759
Speaker 1: the kinds of technology and the personnel and everything else

796
00:47:01,800 --> 00:47:04,520
Speaker 1: that the Russians and the Ukrainians are putting onto their

797
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:08,280
Speaker 1: front lines. Going into the spring fighting season, the Russians

798
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:13,799
Speaker 1: have reportedly had a massive call up of more not

799
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 1: just reservists, but conscripts. So this is going to be

800
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 1: a fight that gets even bloodier, and it's going to

801
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,520
Speaker 1: go on for years. And the US has to understand

802
00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:26,759
Speaker 1: now and has to have the discussion now about what

803
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,760
Speaker 1: our objectives are war and peace. This stuff really matters,

804
00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,040
Speaker 1: matters to all of us. We've gone through twenty years

805
00:47:33,120 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 1: of the American people having our men and women in

806
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:42,480
Speaker 1: uniform deployed overseas. Trump got us to the end of it.

807
00:47:43,239 --> 00:47:46,440
Speaker 1: Biden did pull the troops out of Afghanistan. And you know,

808
00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:48,879
Speaker 1: I keep saying this because I just want to make

809
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,319
Speaker 1: sure that we don't have four more years of Democrat

810
00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:55,520
Speaker 1: because that's really forget. Biden is just the puppet Democrat regime,

811
00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:58,960
Speaker 1: democrat apparatus running the country. He is going to point

812
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: to Afghanistan as a success, and it's going to resonate

813
00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,200
Speaker 1: with a lot of people not the war as a success,

814
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 1: obviously the withdrawal, because memories are fading about what a

815
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 1: debacle the actual withdrawal was and who we left behind.

816
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: And all people will know is when Biden says, you know,

817
00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 1: I pulled out the troops. He did, So that's going

818
00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 1: to be a useful narrative for him. The same way

819
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 1: you're seeing Biden moderate on he's monitoring on fossil fuels.

820
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 1: You see, he just is going to approve this project.

821
00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:34,280
Speaker 1: The environmentalists are all upset about it. He's moderated on police.

822
00:48:34,280 --> 00:48:36,480
Speaker 1: See he's saying we need more cops, and he's not

823
00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 1: defund the police. And the Biden that you and I know,

824
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:47,120
Speaker 1: as in the Democrat administration that currently exists, isn't what

825
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 1: is going to be presented to swing voters to independence

826
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:57,479
Speaker 1: in Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania. You get it. That's

827
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,640
Speaker 1: not what's what all the ads they're going to run

828
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,600
Speaker 1: and all the media narrative is going to be all

829
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:04,880
Speaker 1: Joe Biden. Yeah, he's a moderate, he's a moderate. I

830
00:49:04,920 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 1: want to get to how much of a lie that

831
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:09,560
Speaker 1: is in a moment. But I want everyone to understand

832
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:12,759
Speaker 1: that that's where this is going, that the reality of Joe.

833
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 1: But you're not running against the reality of Joe Biden,

834
00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:21,359
Speaker 1: a decrepid old buffoon who spent decades doing whatever would

835
00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,319
Speaker 1: keep him in power in Delaware as a senator, you know,

836
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:27,840
Speaker 1: as a machine politician for the Democrat Party who was

837
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:30,239
Speaker 1: a joke to Democrats until five minutes ago. That's not

838
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:34,560
Speaker 1: who you ran against. Was, you know, moderate normalcy, always

839
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:37,760
Speaker 1: always grinning at people and saying that he feels their pain,

840
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,440
Speaker 1: and yeah, you know, we're all just human beings. Let's

841
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:43,800
Speaker 1: all just hug it out. The whole thing was a farce.

842
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 1: He's the president. Now you're going to be running against

843
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:52,839
Speaker 1: the fiction that they're able to create with grains of

844
00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,920
Speaker 1: truth behind it about Joe Biden. So understand that. Okay,

845
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 1: that's one part of this. And then there's this from

846
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:02,479
Speaker 1: from Donald Trump. I am a two time Trump voter.

847
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: I think that Donald Trump will wait, yes, sorry, two times.

848
00:50:06,360 --> 00:50:07,959
Speaker 1: I was like he didn't get two terms. Two time

849
00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:10,960
Speaker 1: Trump voter obviously voted for from in twenty sixteen and

850
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,520
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. I think that Trump did a very

851
00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:17,040
Speaker 1: good job as president. There are some areas where I

852
00:50:17,080 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 1: wish things have been a little different, but overall, a

853
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,440
Speaker 1: very good job as president, and I think that he

854
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:25,640
Speaker 1: has a lot to bring to the table now, and

855
00:50:25,680 --> 00:50:27,759
Speaker 1: I think he could be a very good president in

856
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:31,120
Speaker 1: his second term. I also think that he needs to

857
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 1: have people around him who will tell him the truth,

858
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:37,759
Speaker 1: the truth about some of the positions he's taken. By

859
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:39,640
Speaker 1: the way recently, some of the videos he's put out,

860
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:43,760
Speaker 1: some of the policy ideas really engaging, really worthwhile stuff

861
00:50:44,360 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 1: shows both the ability to learn and the ability to

862
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 1: project division for the future that I think would be

863
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:54,160
Speaker 1: quite good for the country. But then there's other stuff

864
00:50:54,160 --> 00:50:57,440
Speaker 1: that comes out sometimes and I just I look at

865
00:50:57,440 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 1: this and I say, what is this? What is this

866
00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:04,040
Speaker 1: all about? Why? Why is Trump taking this approach? Who

867
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:06,520
Speaker 1: is advising him? Or maybe it's just Trump himself, but

868
00:51:06,640 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: he needs advisors then to tell him this is not

869
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 1: the way, sir, talk about you as the leader of

870
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,000
Speaker 1: the party with great ideas that will raise up all

871
00:51:16,040 --> 00:51:19,799
Speaker 1: Republicans and with it the entire nation be bigger. Then

872
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:24,439
Speaker 1: some of the petty stuff. This isn't twenty sixteen. You're

873
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,880
Speaker 1: not the guy that everyone's laughing at who has to

874
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:31,240
Speaker 1: show everybody who you know, the real the real alpha

875
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 1: dog is right that it's not twenty sixteen. You have

876
00:51:34,080 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 1: been the president. There has to be a change. And

877
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:38,799
Speaker 1: I bring it up because that he put out this

878
00:51:38,920 --> 00:51:41,359
Speaker 1: video and I want you to hear it. And if

879
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,040
Speaker 1: you think I'm missing this or whatever, by all means

880
00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:45,880
Speaker 1: I want to open up the lines. Like I said,

881
00:51:46,520 --> 00:51:49,359
Speaker 1: I want to encourage the best of Trump, the best

882
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:52,880
Speaker 1: of his ideas, the best of what he's got. And

883
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 1: you know, we are in a primary officially, and so

884
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 1: when I see this video, I think, no, no, no no,

885
00:51:58,719 --> 00:52:02,319
Speaker 1: this is not this is not people. By the way,

886
00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:05,360
Speaker 1: people say that it's it's funny. If I say maga,

887
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,960
Speaker 1: they say you're supposed to say maga. And if I

888
00:52:08,000 --> 00:52:09,960
Speaker 1: say maga, people yell at me. He'd say it spposed

889
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:13,680
Speaker 1: to be maga. I mean, I think this is tomato tomato. Right. Anyway,

890
00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:18,320
Speaker 1: here is Donald Trump praising Well you'll hear for yourself.

891
00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:20,800
Speaker 1: Play clip one. For those of you that didn't notice,

892
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,879
Speaker 1: Florida was doing great long before Ronda Sanctus scot There

893
00:52:25,400 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 1: people are fleeing from New York to Florida and other

894
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:32,440
Speaker 1: places because of high taxes and out of control crime.

895
00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 1: It's really bad, not because of the governor. Thank you,

896
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,799
Speaker 1: mister president for doing that, but it's not because of

897
00:52:39,840 --> 00:52:43,280
Speaker 1: the governor. Florida was doing fantastically. You had a governor

898
00:52:43,360 --> 00:52:46,080
Speaker 1: named Rick Scott who did a very good job. Even

899
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:48,520
Speaker 1: Charlie Chris the Democrat, did a good job, but he

900
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:52,800
Speaker 1: had very good numbers. Sunshine and ocean are very alluring.

901
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 1: It's not too hard to work with those factors. So

902
00:52:57,160 --> 00:53:00,839
Speaker 1: just remember Florida was doing really well long before run

903
00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:04,719
Speaker 1: to Sanctist got there. Okay, first of all, this sanctis

904
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:10,120
Speaker 1: nickname Trump. Trump's nicknames used to crumble his opponents. Okay,

905
00:53:10,960 --> 00:53:14,120
Speaker 1: a low energy Jeb. Jeb never recovered for his presidency,

906
00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 1: never or or a presidential campaign, never recovered from that

907
00:53:18,480 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: little Marco right with with Marco Rubio. That was at

908
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:23,640
Speaker 1: the time. And by the way, some people say that

909
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:26,000
Speaker 1: this stuff is unfair and it's childish, but I'm just saying,

910
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:27,879
Speaker 1: at the time, these things worked. Say what you will

911
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:32,359
Speaker 1: about them. They worked. The sanctus I don't, I don't.

912
00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:34,839
Speaker 1: I don't think so, I don't. I guess it's sanctimony,

913
00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:37,759
Speaker 1: is what we're kind of going for. Here. Um, it's

914
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 1: just not it's not clever enough, it's not worthy of

915
00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:45,359
Speaker 1: Trumpian nickname. It's just it's just not gonna work. So

916
00:53:45,600 --> 00:53:47,759
Speaker 1: I'm here to to just be honest with all of

917
00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 1: you about what I see happening here in this primary. Look,

918
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:53,279
Speaker 1: it's still super early. Descendus isn't even in the primary,

919
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 1: so why is he attacking a popular Republican governor. And

920
00:53:56,000 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 1: then on the issue of what's happened in Florida, if

921
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,280
Speaker 1: all of you knew, the number of people in conservative

922
00:54:03,280 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 1: media who have moved to Florida in the last three

923
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: years is mind blowing. There's been nothing like this ever

924
00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:11,279
Speaker 1: before in my lifetime in this country. So many of

925
00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 1: your favorite hosts, commentators, TV radio, podcasts, you name it

926
00:54:16,520 --> 00:54:20,799
Speaker 1: have moved to Florida and either doing partially you know,

927
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,800
Speaker 1: six months of the year or something like that, or

928
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:26,920
Speaker 1: here year round. And it's because this has become a

929
00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:31,439
Speaker 1: symbol of something, something is happening in this state that

930
00:54:32,040 --> 00:54:36,719
Speaker 1: the right and conservatism is seizing on. There's a momentum here.

931
00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,359
Speaker 1: And you see this from the eight hundred thousand people

932
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:41,200
Speaker 1: who have I'm in Florida right now. You see this

933
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:43,040
Speaker 1: from the eight hundred thousand people who have moved to

934
00:54:43,040 --> 00:54:45,600
Speaker 1: Florida since the beginning of the pandemic. You see this

935
00:54:45,640 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 1: from the lowest crime rate the state has had in

936
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:51,000
Speaker 1: fifty years. It's always it's always had great weather, it's

937
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 1: always had you in recent memory, at least low or

938
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:58,960
Speaker 1: no state taxes on income. So that's not going to

939
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:01,839
Speaker 1: cut it. And it was the best state to be

940
00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 1: in during COVID. I know because I was a New

941
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,960
Speaker 1: Yorker who had come down to Florida during COVID to

942
00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:10,880
Speaker 1: experience normalcy when other states and other places I remember,

943
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:14,279
Speaker 1: I mean Texas, I was very disappointed in Texas during

944
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:16,839
Speaker 1: the pandemic. I love the state of Texas. I've thought

945
00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:19,320
Speaker 1: about moving there to live many times in my life.

946
00:55:19,680 --> 00:55:23,200
Speaker 1: But during the pandemic. Abbott was not very good. He

947
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,959
Speaker 1: got better, he got you know, he got wise on

948
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,160
Speaker 1: La COVID in lockdowns, but it took him a while.

949
00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:30,840
Speaker 1: Florida was the best state during the pandemic. We have

950
00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,400
Speaker 1: to be honest here about what happened, where we had

951
00:55:33,400 --> 00:55:36,400
Speaker 1: our victories, where we had our losses, and when you

952
00:55:36,480 --> 00:55:40,759
Speaker 1: have not a single statewide elected Republican in Florida for

953
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 1: the first time since the Civil War. That's different, that's

954
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:48,719
Speaker 1: not a normal thing. Praising Charlie Christ. First of all,

955
00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,359
Speaker 1: he was a Republican when he ran the state, which

956
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,600
Speaker 1: is hilarious because Charlie Christ has literally been a Republican,

957
00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:58,480
Speaker 1: a Democrat, and an independent. But this is not the way,

958
00:55:58,640 --> 00:56:00,719
Speaker 1: This is not the way for Trump. I want. I

959
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 1: want more of the ideas. I want more of the leader.

960
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,239
Speaker 1: I want the narrative. You know, there's a there's a

961
00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:09,120
Speaker 1: time and a place for the brawling and the fighting.

962
00:56:09,480 --> 00:56:12,239
Speaker 1: But for me, this it just didn't work. If you

963
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 1: think I'm wrong by all means, let me know if

964
00:56:14,000 --> 00:56:15,759
Speaker 1: there are some Trump voters out there, and I mean

965
00:56:15,960 --> 00:56:17,920
Speaker 1: obviously a lot of Trump voters, I mean people for

966
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,520
Speaker 1: whom Trump is the only option, the only option to

967
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,440
Speaker 1: take on Biden. If you like this or didn't like

968
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 1: this ad, let me know. I'm very curious. Eight hundred

969
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 1: two two to eight eight two. We'll get into some

970
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 1: of that later on in the hour. So I think

971
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,440
Speaker 1: that's very It's look, it's it's gonna be a heck

972
00:56:36,480 --> 00:56:38,399
Speaker 1: of a primary, folks, gonna be a heck of a fight.

973
00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:41,280
Speaker 1: I think that much is clear, you know. Nine hundred

974
00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 1: dollars a lot of money. I don't care what part

975
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:45,560
Speaker 1: of life you're in. I mean, that's just a lot

976
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,520
Speaker 1: of money. Our friends at pure Talk are helping families
