The Clay Travison Buck Sexton 12 00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 3: Show YouTube channel. 13 00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. The Senate 14 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 1: has passed the big beautiful bill that happened right at 15 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,519 Speaker 1: the start of the first hour of today's program that 16 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,159 Speaker 1: will now go back to the House. End result is 17 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:47,440 Speaker 1: going to be passage. Seems to be I would say 18 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 1: general happiness over this passing, but also a I don't 19 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: know that I've picked up on this before, a demand 20 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: for perfection in bill's the likes of which I have 21 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: not seen in the past. All bills passed by Congress 22 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: are imperfect. Many of them are unfortunately awful, which is 23 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: why in many ways I would just like less government. 24 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 1: I think most of you out there would like less government, 25 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 1: just get out of the way and let individual excellence triumph, 26 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: which is how you get the economy growing. But this bill, 27 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:32,240 Speaker 1: I think will aid substantially in getting the economy growing. 28 00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:38,679 Speaker 1: It will provide certainty on tax rates, It will further 29 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: shut down the southern border. It is imperfect, as all 30 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: acts of Congress are, but I believe the net benefits 31 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: are very much in a positive direction. Now, for those 32 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: of you out there that are concerned about government spending, 33 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,480 Speaker 1: you're right, the government spending is out of control. There 34 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 1: is not, however, the political will to address government spending, 35 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: either on the Democrat or the Republican side. It doesn't 36 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 1: exist if you argue for it. In cutting government spending, 37 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: cutting entitlements, all these things, you don't get elected. And 38 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 1: to Buck's point, eventually communists take power, and they spend 39 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: more money, and they tax you at a higher rate. 40 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: So I don't know who the great communicator is going 41 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 1: to be that can actually sit down. I feel like 42 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: in many ways back in the day, some of you 43 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: will remember this Ross Perrot used to just buy commercial 44 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,560 Speaker 1: time in nineteen ninety two, and. 45 00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 2: He had his electern can't finish. 46 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: He had his lectern and he had his pointer, and 47 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: he would stand there and just make the case as 48 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,799 Speaker 1: a executive would, about how government spending was out of control. 49 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,119 Speaker 1: I think Ron Johnson is right on this. I think 50 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: Grand Paul is right on this. We have allowed embedded 51 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: spending excess to be continued from COVID. I agree with 52 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: all of it. The political will to address it isn't there. 53 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: And Democrats this is where they win a lot of 54 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,960 Speaker 1: these arguments because they have established the definition of a 55 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: cut is actually slowing the rate of growth. I've never 56 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: heard of this being applied anywhere else. 57 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 3: This is really this was true of Republicans in the 58 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:27,119 Speaker 3: Tea Party era trying with with there was that there 59 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 3: was a huge fight, and it was about slowing the 60 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 3: rate of the increase of spending. It was about spending 61 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 3: less of a of a you know, bringing the trajectory 62 00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 3: of increase spending down just a little bit and a 63 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 3: decrease in the a decrease in the increase. Yes, and 64 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 3: this was a huge political fight back in the Tea 65 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 3: Party days a decade ago. 66 00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, I. 67 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 3: You know, I don't want to be I don't want 68 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 3: to be uh, dismissive or cynical about it. But usually 69 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: when I say that, it's because I'm about to be. 70 00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 3: We just haven't suffered enough. People haven't spent enough. They 71 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 3: haven't seen enough of their grandchildren not living up to 72 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 3: the you know, the quality of life that they themselves had. 73 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 3: Or we haven't seen enough money going to paying interest 74 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 3: and having that crowd out private spending. We haven't seen 75 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 3: enough of the tax raises that eventually are going to 76 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 3: be a part of trying to stabilize this. 77 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 2: Like you know, that's or or or happiness, because. 78 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 3: We're going into a holiday weekend and I already have 79 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 3: holiday brain going on here a little. 80 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: Bit or clay. 81 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 3: We find ways that AI and productivity and growth are 82 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 3: so profound that it's it's a something of a fiscal miracle, right, 83 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 3: I mean, we become so productive and so efficient as 84 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 3: an economy that we're able to grow our way, if 85 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,000 Speaker 3: not out of it, grow our way to continued stability 86 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 3: with it. 87 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: That's a possibility as well. 88 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 3: I don't think that that's there are people believe that 89 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 3: AI is going to be more transformational than even the 90 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 3: Internet has been fixed with that for a second, so 91 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 3: no one really knows what that means in terms of 92 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 3: how much wealth. You know, people think of wealth as 93 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 3: zero sum, and it's not. Now I'm barring from Naval 94 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:10,440 Speaker 3: ravakand he's a very smart guy. Status is zero sum. 95 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 3: Wealth can actually be something that is real and that 96 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,160 Speaker 3: is broadly shared. We are all a lot richer than 97 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 3: the richest people were in the fifteen hundreds. 98 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: Why is that right? 99 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 3: The world has gotten a lot wealthier, not just individuals. 100 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 3: Status is a different thing. That's zero sum. So I 101 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 3: just don't know if we've reached the point. I don't 102 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 3: think we have reached the point of the country where 103 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 3: we want to tackle the problem. Maybe we want to 104 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 3: see if we can grow our way out of it, 105 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 3: and that's where we are. So any noise to the 106 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 3: contrary right now is unfortunately just that noise. 107 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: I think the argument that might cut through from a 108 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 1: communication perspective is if you put on ten pounds of 109 00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:51,559 Speaker 1: weight every year and then suddenly you only put on three, 110 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: you're getting fat slower, but you're still getting fatter. And 111 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: the whole idea that slowing the rate of an increase 112 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,840 Speaker 1: or slowing the rate of growth as a cut is 113 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: one of the most pernicious. I think realities that has 114 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: been allowed to exist in the way we even have conversation. 115 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: This is where the left does a better job with language, 116 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,160 Speaker 1: because defining a cut as something that actually leads to 117 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: something being greater is really what they do in essence, 118 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: because what it means is once they get the money spent, 119 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 1: they never dial back from the money that has been spent. 120 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: They embed it. 121 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 3: It's also it's like revenue versus taxes. They don't use 122 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 3: the word tax really if they can avoid it. They'll 123 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 3: say revenue because revenue is just money the government has 124 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 3: which is good and goes to investing. 125 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 2: That's what the losses say, we need. 126 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 3: To invest more in the following programs because investing sounds good. 127 00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 3: What they mean is take your money under the threat 128 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 3: of fines and or imprisonment and put it into things 129 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 3: that the government decides our payoffs or the constituents that 130 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 3: they need to pay off. That's what it actually is. 131 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 3: But they play games with a language. I said this 132 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: to Clay Offline, I mean of off Air. I'll say 133 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 3: it to all of you. It's the same thing when 134 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 3: you talk about minimum wage. Minimum wage is economically a 135 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 3: flawed concept. It does not work the way it is 136 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 3: intended to work. It never has, it never will, doesn't matter. 137 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: People like it. And if you say don't pay minimum wage, 138 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: you know what happens. 139 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 1: You lose. 140 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 3: So it's very hard and you could say, well, I'll 141 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 3: just convince people, make a better argument. You can convince 142 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 3: some people. Can you convince enough people that the communists 143 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 3: who are just gonna shout you're a fat cat? They 144 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 3: play the politics of envy, the mom Donnie routine like 145 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 3: this mom Donnie stuff is none of this is new. 146 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,239 Speaker 2: The same thing with Bernie Sanders. 147 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 3: Did you see Bernie Sanders sitting down with Joe Rogan recently? 148 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 3: I might add talking about the the lawsuits. 149 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: That Trump is filing. 150 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,240 Speaker 3: You know what Bernie Sanders does whenever he's cornered with 151 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: a stupid argument, he pretends he doesn't know the details. 152 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 3: This is what he does. He does this with economics too. 153 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 3: I might add, well, you know, I don't have the 154 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: facts and the figures on that, so what I can't 155 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: get into it? Then the no, it's because his arguments 156 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 3: are trash clay. But Bernie Sanders, Mamdani AOC, they're all 157 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 3: doing the same thing, which is ignoring history, ignoring math, 158 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 3: and telling people they have a secret sauce, a secret 159 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 3: formula that's gonna make everybody feel like they're getting enough 160 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 3: and they're good enough and everything is fine. It is 161 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 3: always a lie, but it's a very appealing lie. 162 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 1: Something that Trump is going to focus on, buck that 163 00:08:24,440 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: I'm starting to see attention on that I think could 164 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: be transformative. Okay, we've talked now. The big beautiful bill 165 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: is eventually going to pass in some fashions, past the Senate, 166 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: past the House. They have to reconcile them. But I 167 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 1: don't think it's going to suddenly blow up. There's going 168 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 1: to be some form of a bill that passes. Okay, 169 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 1: so that is now moving forward in the agenda. There 170 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: is now and I think this is going to be 171 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: potentially transformative momentum to not count illegal immigrants for purposes 172 00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: of the House seats. Have you seen this? This could 173 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:06,000 Speaker 1: be hugely important and it's structural and it's massive. First 174 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: of all, we need a new census because I think 175 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: they screwed it up, and it would change the way 176 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: that the twenty twenty eight election map is set up 177 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 1: because it would mean that even if Democrats won Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania. 178 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: The electoral votes are not there to allow them to 179 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: be able to win two seventy to two sixty eight. Unfortunately, 180 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,920 Speaker 1: the electoral college not going to be shifted. It doesn't 181 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:34,960 Speaker 1: appear till after twenty thirty. But what no one talks 182 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 1: about that I think Trump could get behind, and this 183 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: could be really important too, is they count illegal immigrants 184 00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: for purposes of House seats. And the number is roughly 185 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: seven hundred and thirty or seven hundred and forty thousand. 186 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: Congressmen represent individuals. If you said, hey, we're not counting 187 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 1: illegal immigrants at all for purposes of how seats, this 188 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: would mean that the House was not winnable for Democrats. 189 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: They may win the House back in twenty twenty six, 190 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: but structurally, if I were now the Trump team and 191 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: I were giving them advice on something that I think 192 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 1: would be transformative in the illegal immigrant space, it would 193 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: be let's make it clear that you cannot count illegal 194 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 1: immigrants for purposes of redistricting House seats and districting House seats, 195 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: and this would probably knock at least ten Democrat seats 196 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 1: out of control. Why in the world should these people 197 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: be counted and it be the case that Democrats benefit 198 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: overwhelmingly off of people that are not citizens, not them voting, 199 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 1: but just then being counted for census purposes. This means 200 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:55,640 Speaker 1: that big cities and blue states that have encouraged illegal 201 00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 1: immigrants to come into their locations would be dialed back 202 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: in their impact, and this would have a substantial impact 203 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 1: going forward. I think it's one of the big things 204 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: that I would say, Hey, now that we got this done, 205 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: let's focus on that. 206 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 4: Well. 207 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 3: It also goes to the perception people have, which I 208 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,840 Speaker 3: think is in this case correct, which is that the 209 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 3: system is rigged because if you're a political party that 210 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 3: is benefiting from violations of law, you are benefiting in 211 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 3: terms of you know, cold hard facts of power when 212 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 3: it comes to leveraging something that is the mass violation, 213 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 3: the zero violation of American law. That's not the way 214 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 3: the game is supposed to be played, all right, The 215 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 3: refs have been paid off. This is a problem, and it's, 216 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 3: as you point out, a substantial one, a big one 217 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,839 Speaker 3: by the numbers. So yeah, this is why I keep 218 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 3: saying though with the with the big beautiful bill, the 219 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 3: illegals situation, this is why Trump won this is the 220 00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 3: number one reason in my mind that Trump won the 221 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 3: election as convincingly as he did. I know, there's other stuff, 222 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 3: there's a million things. Okay, it's always you're taking a 223 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 3: snapshot of the way that a hundred fifty million people 224 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 3: decided to click one box or the other. But immigration 225 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 3: is the single issue that I think motivated more people 226 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 3: to get behind Trump. And this has to start getting 227 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 3: fixed right now because what we saw under Joe Biden 228 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 3: that is truly unsustainable if you want to consider this 229 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 3: to be America going forward, not in fifty years and 230 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 3: five years. You can't have another ten million illegals pile 231 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 3: into this country on top of the illegals that are 232 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 3: already here and think that this is still going to 233 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 3: be what we've thought it is. And Clay, it's already 234 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 3: having a huge political effect as we see give all 235 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 3: these cities that are trying to thwart federal law enforcement. 236 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 3: Well that's because the political power of the illegal constituents 237 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 3: in those cities. 238 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,760 Speaker 1: Is huge and they know that they have to try 239 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,319 Speaker 1: and preserve it. We'll take some calls on this, and 240 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: we'll take some of your calls.

I promise you. No one's like, oh, 323 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: look at. 324 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:50,240 Speaker 2: The fireworks on that and on that Facebook page. All right, 325 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 2: Jerry and Wisconsin, save me from myself. 326 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 6: What's up, Jerry, Hey fellow, it's good to speak with you, 327 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 6: three time Trump photer here, but I have to say 328 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 6: I find myself more in the rand Paul ron Johnson 329 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 6: camp on these issues. I think part of the problem, 330 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 6: and I'd like to hear your viewpoints. Obviously, I think 331 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 6: part of the problem is the way this all got 332 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 6: rolled out, you know, we were in this doge environment 333 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 6: where we're closing down agencies and we're letting federal employees go, 334 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 6: and we're finding waste and very much they were leading 335 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 6: the public to believe in Republicans. I think that this 336 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:31,520 Speaker 6: was critical and it needed to be done, and we 337 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 6: needed to tighten our belts. And then suddenly here comes 338 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 6: a big, beautiful bill and you start hearing about all 339 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 6: the content and it's a complete antithesis of where we 340 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 6: just were. And I think this is a frustration for 341 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 6: a lot of Republicans. And I think that, as you 342 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:54,159 Speaker 6: guys noted, maybe the will isn't there to actually address that. 343 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:58,119 Speaker 6: But if the will isn't there now, then where do 344 00:17:58,200 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 6: we go with this? 345 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 3: Right I'll give you a shorthand on this. We could 346 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 3: just because we're going to break. It's one thing to 347 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,119 Speaker 3: have a great conversation with somebody. When someone says, you know, 348 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 3: I really want to lose weight. You encourage them. Everyone's great, 349 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 3: everyone's on the same page. It's fantastic. When you tell 350 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,920 Speaker 3: them to put the third doughnut down the next day, 351 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 3: they sometimes get very, very snippy, and that's the American 352 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 3: people with their spending. Our sponsor, Saber is the number 353 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 3: one pepper spray brand trusted by law enforcement. I just 354 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 3: did a course over the weekend firearms course NRA Rain 355 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,439 Speaker 3: Safety Officer. A lot of cops in there, and I 356 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 3: was talking to them about non lethals because obviously we 357 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 3: got a great non lethal on this show as a sponsor, 358 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 3: and Saber is what they carry. They've got Saber pepper spray, 359 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 3: Saber pepper projectile launchers, and this is what you should 360 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,439 Speaker 3: have at home because this is a great less lethal, 361 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 3: less than lethal option. Saber is spelled Sabre. Their website 362 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,439 Speaker 3: is saberradio dot com.

Trump directly addressed something that 374 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 1: that I was discussing and we've been talking about in 375 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,840 Speaker 1: this program for years now. That is how the census 376 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,959 Speaker 1: counts illegal immigrants, and he said he believes they should 377 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:49,119 Speaker 1: address it. Listen here cut for the President. 378 00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 4: There's going to be a new bill called make American 379 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 4: Elections Great Again. I love forcing the US Census Bureau 380 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 4: to redo the census, to actually get an account of 381 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,679 Speaker 4: how so many Americans proved the citizenship are in our area, 382 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 4: in our country. Redisaturing some of the House ditsar't your 383 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 4: thoughts on that. 384 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 6: We iast speak for both of us. 385 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: We love it. 386 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 6: Given like this one. 387 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:12,239 Speaker 2: I know all about it. 388 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 7: We want to bring our elections back. The election in 389 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 7: twenty twenty was rigged millions and millions of votes. It 390 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 7: had to do with COVID and a lot of things, 391 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 7: but it really had to do with the crooked people. 392 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 7: The Democrats are very good at geetaging elections. And that's 393 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 7: why I said too big to Ric. They tried this 394 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,360 Speaker 7: one too, but after about nine oh two they gave 395 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 7: up too many votes. 396 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 2: You too, Victor ric. 397 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: I do think that increasingly, as you've seen a lot 398 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 1: of people suddenly say, hey, you know, it did turn 399 00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: out Biden didn't have the mental and physical capacity to 400 00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 1: be president. I think a lot of people are looking 401 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,280 Speaker 1: now that we've had three Trump era votes at the 402 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: eighty one point three even Democrats at the eighty one 403 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 1: point three million votes that Joe Biden supposedly got in 404 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty, and they're saying, that's no way that's real. 405 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 1: I mean, just it's like steroid era baseball, where you know, 406 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: you suddenly had was it Brady Anderson hits fifty home 407 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,719 Speaker 1: runs or whatever the heck it is. There just is 408 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 1: no way based on all the metrics of the Trump era, 409 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: because what they tried to say was, well, Trump just 410 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: uniquely provokes a lot of votes against him too. No, 411 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: doesn't really work when you look at the math. The 412 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 1: math doesn't add up on eighty one point three million 413 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 1: for Joe Biden. And it's funny the way Trump addressed it. Now, Yes, 414 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: he's back president, and the ultimate reality is Trump is 415 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: this is the kick in the teeth, far more effective 416 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: right now as president than he would have been if 417 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: he won in twenty twenty. Now, there wouldn't be the 418 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: same amount of mess because the border wouldn't have been open. 419 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: I don't think we'd have a war in Ukraine. I 420 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: don't think Hamas would have invaded Israel. The world would 421 00:21:52,359 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 1: look very different. But Trump would not have had a 422 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 1: majority in the Senate or the House necessarily to be 423 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,240 Speaker 1: able to undertake what he did. 424 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 2: Here we have some cheery news about this. 425 00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 3: I think it ties in to just how much Republicans 426 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,880 Speaker 3: are united behind Trump in this administration. This is from 427 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,880 Speaker 3: the CNN data guy. This is eighteen five months into 428 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 3: his term. This is what it's looking like by the numbers. 429 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:21,120 Speaker 1: Play it. 430 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 8: So we're going to look at the strongly approved numbers. 431 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,680 Speaker 8: So this isn't just Republicans who like Donald Trump. This 432 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 8: is Republicans who love Donald Trump, and he's up like 433 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 8: a rocket. 434 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:31,119 Speaker 1: Look at this. 435 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 8: In July twenty seventeen, the strongly approved with fifty three percent. 436 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,119 Speaker 1: That's pretty good. But look at where he is now. 437 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 8: Sixty three percent of Republicans strongly approved of the job 438 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 8: that Donald Trump is doing about five months into his presidency. 439 00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:49,560 Speaker 8: Republicans love Donald Trump the way that Americans love Disney World. 440 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 8: The bottom line is sixty three percent. That is a huge, 441 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 8: huge base. And of course It's just part of a 442 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 8: Republican base in which about ninety percent of them overall 443 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 8: a proof of him, including the somewhat. 444 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 3: As well, sixty three percent love Trump, ninety percent plus 445 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 3: support Trump. Republicans feel the way about Trump that Americans 446 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 3: feel about Disney World. Clay, It's a pretty big deal. 447 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:12,880 Speaker 5: Yeah. 448 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 1: And there's a second one there too that also just 449 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: kind of brings us. This is why I do think 450 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: social media is great. You and I use it. We 451 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: like to get messages out there. I think the idea 452 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: that it is in any way reflective of the larger 453 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: world is often not true. And I think left wingers 454 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,399 Speaker 1: have learned this because it led them completely off the 455 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: off the reservation. I think sometimes getting worked up about 456 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 1: what seems popular on social media, this was true. I 457 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: think of Trump's decision to bomb Iran, there's about twenty 458 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: percent of people who disagreed with that that voted for Trump. 459 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 1: That's fine. People don't always have to agree. But if 460 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:56,560 Speaker 1: you had been just watching social media, you would have 461 00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 1: thought it was far more popular than it actually was. 462 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 1: And but this cut nineteen. Trump is more beloved by 463 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 1: the Republican base than any base has loved any Republican 464 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: president maybe ever, at least in the modern era of polling. 465 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:16,719 Speaker 1: Listen to this from cut nineteen. 466 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 8: We have all the president's Republican presidents going back over 467 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 8: the last thirty five, thirty six, thirty seven years. What 468 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 8: are we talking about GOP who strongly approved five months? 469 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: And look at this George HW. 470 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 8: Bush forty one, forty six percent, Bush forty three, fifty nine. 471 00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 8: You see Trump the first term fifty three. But look 472 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 8: at this sixty three percent. He beats all the other 473 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 8: Republicans on the board here. And I was looking even 474 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,719 Speaker 8: back since Reagan. And get this, Donald Trump beats Reagan 475 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 8: when it comes to the strongly approved five months. And 476 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 8: of course Reagan was coming off do high after that 477 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,879 Speaker 8: assassination attempt. So the bottom line is Donald Trump is 478 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 8: making history with the Republican base. He is more beloved 479 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 8: by this Republican base than any Republican base loved any 480 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,720 Speaker 8: g OP president five months and it is history making. 481 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty extraordinary to be more popular than Reagan. 482 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 3: I mean, you know we're talking to he said, he said, 483 00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:13,800 Speaker 3: you know, Reagan coming off the the additional support for 484 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 3: him after the assassination attempt. 485 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, like what Trump had too. I think we don't even. 486 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: We don't even take that, and people just it never 487 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 3: gets talked about. Trump took a bullet an inch from 488 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: the base of his skull and he's just gone on 489 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 3: like it did. It didn't stop him one bit. It 490 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,399 Speaker 3: hasn't hasn't shook him, shook him at all. It's a 491 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 3: remarkable thing that Donald Trump, and it's never even talked 492 00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 3: about in the in the context of like political violins 493 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:44,320 Speaker 3: and the you know how passions need to be tempered 494 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 3: now or anything. No, no, no, Donald Trump survived two 495 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,440 Speaker 3: assassination attempts. 496 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 1: One bullet went through his ear. 497 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 3: Uh, And yeah, he's he's the most beloved figure by 498 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 3: the GEOP. 499 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:56,879 Speaker 1: I mean, I think. 500 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 2: It's very likely, almost a certainty. 501 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 1: Now, no one can predict the future, so. 502 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:05,159 Speaker 3: You know, maybe we get invaded by aliens and you know, 503 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 3: the whole world blows up. 504 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: Who knows. 505 00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 3: I don't mean illegal aliens, I mean like outer space, 506 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 3: you of fotype aliens. But I think that Trump is 507 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,840 Speaker 3: going to end up being the most beloved Republican president 508 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 3: of anyone's living memory, including Reagan. I think that's I 509 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 3: think that's almost inevitable. 510 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: I think We've said this, but I'm going to keep 511 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 1: hammering at home because some of you are going to 512 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 1: be stunned when you see the pivot. Trump is Hitler, 513 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,880 Speaker 1: Trump is Hitler. Trump is Hitler, Trump is Hitler. Right 514 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: after the midterms, it's going to be Republicans are never 515 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:39,560 Speaker 1: going to be able to replace Trump. The greatness of 516 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:43,600 Speaker 1: Donald Trump politician. Oh for sure, for sure, that's it 517 00:26:43,680 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 1: is inevitable. It is inevitable. I'm just telling you, guys, 518 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: twenty twenty seven, that argument is going to shift to 519 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 1: there never be another Trump. There's no way that they're 520 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: going to be able to replicate his vote totals. He's 521 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,400 Speaker 1: one of the greatest politicians ever. I'm Democrats, not you guys. 522 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: I'm saying Democrats are going to be making that argument. 523 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 3: Of course, I also a lot of what we tell 524 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 3: you here on the show is going to happen happens. 525 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 3: I'd say our prediction rate. You know, elections can be tough, 526 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 3: although we did nail this last election, nailed it. Predictions 527 00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 3: can be kind of tough with elections, but general predictions, 528 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 3: I think we have a pretty darn good record, and 529 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 3: we go back and we give our post mortem. 530 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:23,719 Speaker 1: If we miss it. 531 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 3: We told you that it was just a matter of 532 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 3: time before Governor Ron DeSantis and Donald Trump were hugging 533 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 3: it out and everything was fine, and that it was 534 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 3: just going to be a bruising primary, and DeSantis supporters 535 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 3: and DeSantis people, etc. We're all going to be welcome 536 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 3: in Maga again, and they're all going to be working 537 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 3: towards saving the country. And I think most most people 538 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,240 Speaker 3: on the right understood that. Some people said no, no, 539 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 3: if you De santists, people will never be allowed back 540 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:57,240 Speaker 3: in Maga. DeSantis will never Okay, Well, here's Donald Trump 541 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 3: speaking with Ron to row and to the Country play 542 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 3: twenty four. 543 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 9: Ron, I'd like to thank you personally.

Trump went on to say. 552 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 3: About his relationship with Ron De Santis, I think it's 553 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 3: a ten Okay, maybe nine point nine. But we have 554 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 3: a great relationship. I think it's a ten. Okay, So 555 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 3: we told you this would happen, and some people doubt it, 556 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 3: and I'm just saying, here we are.

We had a lot of 561 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 1: people calling in like I'll never vote for Trump. 562 00:28:58,440 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: Ron. 563 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 1: That just people were. 564 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,960 Speaker 2: All the time, all the time. 565 00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: We took it. 566 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 2: We took it like it. 567 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: We took it like champs here Clay people, Oh, anybody 568 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 3: who liked. 569 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 2: Ronda sho just just betrayed Trump or what? 570 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 3: No, no, no, Because there was some heat there. The 571 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 3: people wanted us to break the Rush rule. Remember Yush 572 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,720 Speaker 3: never endorsed once ever in a Republican primary, refused as 573 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 3: a matter of principle to do it. People, were you 574 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: better endorsed, you better endorse in Russia's house. I don't 575 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:31,080 Speaker 3: think we're changing Russia's rules. And sure enough Trump and 576 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 3: Ron hugging it out. He said, Trump said relationships at ten, 577 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:37,800 Speaker 3: maybe a nine point nine, okay. I mean Clay and 578 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 3: I hang out for three hours a day. If I 579 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 3: can say our relationships a nine point nine, that's pretty 580 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 3: damn good. 581 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 1: I would agree. I heck, if you could say your 582 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 1: relationship with your wife or husband is a nine point nine, 583 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:51,440 Speaker 1: I bet most of you couldn't find the way. But 584 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: if you could say that, that's a pretty good sign. 585 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: By the way, this is funny. As we get ready 586 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 1: for the break, Trump standing in front of the Alligator 587 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:02,560 Speaker 1: Alcatraz prison and said, Biden wanted me in here. He's 588 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: having a lot of fun. I think the humor of 589 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,760 Speaker 1: Trump is really coming out. His confidence is at an 590 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 1: all time high, probably as president. Listen to cut twenty three. 591 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,520 Speaker 2: Here, Hey, Biden wanted me in here. 592 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 4: He wanted me. 593 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 9: It didn't work out that way, but he wanted me 594 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 9: in here. 595 00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: I didn't wanted me in here. The video is really 596 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,720 Speaker 1: funny of Trump standing in front of the prisons at 597 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: Alligator Alcatraz says. 598 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 2: I don't want to be a bummer. Very well, I 599 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 2: don't want to be a bummer. 600 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 1: I agree with you. 601 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 3: Trump's having a great time. He loves being president of 602 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 3: the whole thing. When we went saw him in the 603 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 3: Oval recently and saw talk to him and Caroline Levitt 604 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 3: and jad Vance came in with the whole thing. It's 605 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 3: like just the energy in this administration is so positive 606 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 3: and and just so there's just such a sense of 607 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 3: destiny to it all. It's incredible. I do though, just 608 00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 3: take a moment I mentioned in a second ago. Trump's 609 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 3: revived an assassination attempt. A five to five six bullet 610 00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 3: went through his year, could have gone through his head, 611 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: could have changed world history and been a horrible tragedy 612 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 3: and torn the country apart. So, you know, I don't 613 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 3: want to dwell on that, but I think we need 614 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:09,280 Speaker 3: to keep that perspective. I think that Joe Biden, or 615 00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 3: his handlers pretending to be I think he would have 616 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 3: let Trump go to prison if they could have pulled 617 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 3: that off. I think if Biden forget about the debate 618 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 3: and everything else, if they had been able to get 619 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,800 Speaker 3: a conviction of Trump and the Supreme Court did not 620 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 3: step in and Biden won reelection, that he would have 621 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 3: let Donald Trump. 622 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:29,840 Speaker 5: Go to prison. 623 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 1: I absolutely believe that. 624 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 3: I do not think Joe Biden has the character of 625 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 3: the decency to have stepped in to prevent that. Again 626 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 3: on the federal level, where it would have been his 627 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 3: prerogative as president. 628 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 5: So I. 629 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: Think that's true. In the original sin book that I'm 630 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: reading that everybody is angry at me for reading. There's 631 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: regular revelations that Biden really expected Trump to go to 632 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 1: prison and was looking forward to it, like based on 633 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,160 Speaker 1: private conversations inside of the White House. 634 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 3: That actually is really I mean, I that doesn't surprise 635 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 3: me at all. But that is an interesting revelation from 636 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 3: from that book. You know what, Clay, you'll send me 637 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 3: your copy so I don't put any dollars next time 638 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 3: we're in. 639 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 1: Person, so you don't have to buy it. I'll give 640 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: you my copy to read. It's anybody but no, but 641 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 1: that goes to who Joe Biden is. That really does 642 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: go to who Joe Biden is. Joe Biden's a scumbag. 643 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 1: He's not a good person. He never was. 644 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 3: And you know, I was saying that all along. I 645 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,680 Speaker 3: was telling the stories here about how how he lied 646 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:25,360 Speaker 3: about the culpability of the other driver when his wife 647 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 3: was killed because it gave him political advantage. Clay and 648 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 3: I have talked about how he. 649 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 2: Was sworn in in the hospital room with the kids, 650 00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 2: and I. 651 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: Mean, he's not. 652 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,640 Speaker 3: Plus also the stafford that he's actually that you know, 653 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 3: allegedly he's actually assaulted who came out. It's entirely credible 654 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 3: allegation of woman worked for me. 655 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 5: I mean. 656 00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 3: Nothing nothing about Joe Biden matter other than he was 657 00:32:45,120 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 3: a He was part of their will to power. They 658 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 3: didn't care. But he's not a good guy. He's not 659 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,400 Speaker 3: a good guy, and I think everyone now will admit that. 660 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,160 Speaker 3: So anyway, that's really interesting. Though he wanted to he 661 00:32:55,200 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 3: did he I knew that, Clay without you telling me that, 662 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 3: and yet here we are. He would have he would 663 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 3: have sat there and let Donald Trump rot in a 664 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:05,400 Speaker 3: prison cell over nothing.

Here is Zoron Mamdani saying that that 702 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,760 Speaker 3: the the government, the local government should buy up housing 703 00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 3: and can divert them into communities. 704 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 1: Play ten. 705 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 10: To go further toward the Vienna model, we'll have to 706 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 10: go beyond the market. We can establish community land trusts 707 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 10: to gradually buy up housing on the private market and 708 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,680 Speaker 10: convert it to community ownership. We can give tenants to 709 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 10: right a first refusal to buy out their landlords when 710 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 10: buildings go up for safe and we can fully commit 711 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 10: to a new era of social housing, ending subsidies for 712 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 10: luxury housing development, and using our wealth to build beautiful, 713 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 10: high quality social housing projects that offer good homes and 714 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:33,279 Speaker 10: strong communities to everyone. We won't decommodify housing overnight, but 715 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 10: we know what we have to do, and we have 716 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 10: history to guide us. 717 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 2: That's real commedy stuff right there. Just everyance clear. 718 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,040 Speaker 3: I mean, that's like communism, communism, that's not even like I'm. 719 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 2: A democratic socialist from Sweden. 720 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 3: No, that is the government stepping in buying property and 721 00:35:49,760 --> 00:35:54,720 Speaker 3: turning it into collective ownership situations communes. 722 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: Where can you. 723 00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:59,480 Speaker 2: Imagine what a hell hole it would be like? 724 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,240 Speaker 3: It's bad enough the City of New York operates project housing, 725 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 3: which is city owned housing that they then and you know, 726 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 3: it's heavily subsized and people pay, but the city controls it. 727 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,560 Speaker 3: Could you imagine what communal housing would be like clay, like. 728 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 2: It just owned by people who live in the neighborhood. 729 00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, buy and large, it always fails. 730 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 1: It's commune style. They've been trying to do that since 731 00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 1: the nineteen sixties. I don't know why there's not more 732 00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: discussion about this. You know what would help to lower 733 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:31,719 Speaker 1: rents in New York City massively fewer illegal immigrants. I mean, 734 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:35,040 Speaker 1: this is just basic economics. If you have fewer people 735 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: trying to buy an asset, then the overall cost of 736 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 1: the asset goes down. I'm surprised there isn't more discussion 737 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 1: when it comes to housing costs about what having thirty 738 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:50,840 Speaker 1: million illegals at least ish in the country does to 739 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 1: the overall housing market. New York City in particular. Imagine 740 00:36:55,239 --> 00:36:58,480 Speaker 1: if you got rid of likely a million or more 741 00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 1: certainly illegal immigrants, that would make the people that are 742 00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:04,720 Speaker 1: actually legally here probably have to pay less for their homes. 743 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,600 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that more next
