Milton is our 11 00:00:58,360 --> 00:00:59,800 Speaker 1: general manager. 12 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 3: Right. 13 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: We are a Category six interimation storm, but we are. 14 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 2: Expected to weakened quickly.

Yeah, some of us are starting off 17 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: a tad week. We will forge ahead. 18 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:19,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 19 00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:23,440 Speaker 1: I like the back and forth between DeSantis and Kamala Harris. 20 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 2: I'm enjoying that. 21 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:25,760 Speaker 1: We'll have to play some of those clips a little 22 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: bit later. It's just it's kind of fuck phony, load 23 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: of hooey. Well, it's kind of funny because he clapped 24 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 1: back at her and she accused him of politicizing the hurricane, 25 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: and he said, look, you're the vice president. Why would 26 00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: I talk to you. You've never called before for any hurricanes. 27 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: Of course she doesn't. The vice president doesn't call you 28 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: when there's a hurricane. The president might, the vice president 29 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 1: doesn't unless you're a candidate. 30 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: So who's politicizing it? I mean, that's just kind of funny. 31 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: Go get her, Go get her, Ronnie. I thought that 32 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: was a good response. 33 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: She's never called me for any of the other hurricanes 34 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: over the last three and a half years. Oh, I 35 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 1: love that. Why would she if somebody said the vice 36 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 1: president's on the phone? Okay, well, maybe somebody ought to 37 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: be put in charge of hurricane response so it goes 38 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: better in the future. The more I learned, the more 39 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 1: I convinced I am that it's just floundering. Yeah, general 40 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,839 Speaker 1: government is just floundering. 41 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 3: I know. 42 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 2: So I was. I heard a clip on the way in, 43 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 2: and I well, I have a knee jerk. 44 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 1: I've always had a knee jerk reaction to any of 45 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: these evacuate orders, just because the idea of the government 46 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: telling me I got to leave my home rubs me 47 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: the wrong way. I mean, just as much as anything 48 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: could rub me the wrong way in general, and then 49 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 1: you combine that with what are your other examples of 50 00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: you being right and doing a good job? The response 51 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,520 Speaker 1: to the last hurricane, how about the entire freaking pandemic. 52 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: How about making me eat saturated fat instead of eggs 53 00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: as a kid. I mean, just endless examples of you 54 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: being so wrong. And now you're telling me to leave 55 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: my home behind so looters can have it. I'm not, 56 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,480 Speaker 1: you know, and I'm I think in this case they're 57 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: probably right in the mayor saying you're gonna die if 58 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: you stay in that sort of sort, But the way 59 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 1: they come off, it's a we're the government, we know 60 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:20,080 Speaker 1: when you're surrounded by examples of you not knowing that 61 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 1: are neck deep. Oh yeah, whether you know the question 62 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 1: in this case they might be right is kind of irrelevant. 63 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 1: It's just if you have information for me, any recommendation, 64 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 1: I have no problem with receiving that. 65 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 2: But yeah, don't come off as so high handed and authority. 66 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 1: Are you the same people that said I got to 67 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: stand six feet apart and then we found out that 68 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 1: didn't mean anything, and you kept schools closed claiming this. 69 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,080 Speaker 2: I mean, you just there's all kinds of emergency things you. 70 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 1: Covered for the Chinese communists because you hate Trump and 71 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: doctor Fauci something something. 72 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you people are ridiculous. 73 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: You know what I had forgotten? And I want to 74 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: get off on this tangent. But I was listening to 75 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,240 Speaker 1: a podcast the other day about experts. This is what 76 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: I'm complaining about right now because it came up in 77 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: the vice presidential debate, jd Vance being for the crowd 78 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,280 Speaker 1: like me that don't believe in experts, and the response 79 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 1: to that is, oh, you will go to a brain surgeon. Well, yeah, 80 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: of course I believe a brain surgeon is an expert. 81 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 1: But anything about the economy school from age four to 82 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: twenty four, the endless examples of no, I don't believe 83 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: the experts at freaking all. But one of the examples 84 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: who came up in this discussion about it was when 85 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: none of us could leave our homes, our kids couldn't 86 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: play in the park nearby, all that sort of stuff. 87 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: Then George Floyd gets killed and you're allowed to ride 88 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,160 Speaker 1: in the street, and they claimed that racism was a 89 00:04:41,160 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: health concern. Racism was a health concern. That was really 90 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 1: the end of I mean, come on, shut up. I 91 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: don't want to hear it maturing logic, like it was 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: a heretic in the Middle Ages. 93 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, cut it out. 94 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: And then, like you just said to open with the 95 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 1: hurricane response, the same people are telling me we absolutely 96 00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: know what this is going to be, like you need 97 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: to leave. Are the same people that are handling the 98 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:05,000 Speaker 1: response so poorly? 99 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:05,880 Speaker 2: Sound right? 100 00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: You know? 101 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: Come on. 102 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 1: The one part that really got to me was the timetable. 103 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: And I had been looking for this and unable to 104 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: find it. So six days after Helene madelandfall, six days later, 105 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: the Defense Department announced a thousand troops had been authorized 106 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: to deploy to the hurricane response zone. Okay, six days later, 107 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: as evening fell on Friday the fourth, which was two 108 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: days after that, that's day eight. Fewer than half of 109 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: the one thousand troops were conducting any operations and deployed 110 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: to western North Carolina. 111 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 2: So it took eight days to get five hundred people there. 112 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: You see hurricanes coming. It's funny. 113 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: I've lived all over the country and you hear people 114 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 1: talking about, oh, tornado, scare me, Oh Earth quite terrifying. 115 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:56,960 Speaker 2: Oh what about hurricanes? 116 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 1: The thing about hurricanes is you see them coming per 117 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: days sometimes well right, yeah, sometimes it's even a week, 118 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,559 Speaker 1: we get alf two weeks. But sometimes they change tracks. 119 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: Sometimes they're stronger than expected, or or do what they 120 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: did to the Carolinas, which was a bit of a surprise. 121 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 2: But the idea that, oh, shoot, what do we do unders. 122 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: Hurricanes troops, National Guard, eighty second Airborne from North Carolina, 123 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: from North Carolina, it's worth mentioning. 124 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 2: Six days later they think, yeah, yeah, we ought to 125 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 2: authorize some troops. 126 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And it takes two more days to get 127 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: five hundred active duty military personnel to the other side 128 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: of the state. And what the hell is that? The 129 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: other aspect of it that rubbed me the wrong way, 130 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 1: in addition to the fact that they the government has 131 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 1: been wrong about so many things my whole life, to 132 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: all of a sudden act like we should. 133 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: You know, believe you know what you're doing or you're on. 134 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: Top of it is they always claim they're doing a 135 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: good job. Always, that's the knee jerk reaction, whether it's 136 00:06:58,640 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: Joe Biden the other day. 137 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 2: No, everybody's go ahead, Michael.

Kendy? 177 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 5: Yeah? 178 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:25,240 Speaker 1: He uh. He wrote some books that were very well regarded. 179 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 1: I did not read, and they made me pretty good. 180 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: I can't remember the latest one is the Message, which 181 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,640 Speaker 1: is just a one sided He's given up on excoriating 182 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:38,319 Speaker 1: and demonizing the United States, well at least partly and 183 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,199 Speaker 1: now he's turned his gaze toward Israel. But the highlight 184 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 1: being he got pushed kind of hard on CBS the 185 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 1: Early Show the other day, and then there was a 186 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,520 Speaker 1: backlash among the lefty young people in the newsroom and 187 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: it's turned into quite the scandal within CBS. We'll play 188 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,079 Speaker 1: some of that interview later. I didn't I didn't hear it, 189 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,199 Speaker 1: but the way i've I've read it being portrayed, admittedly 190 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 1: in conservative circles, as it was a perfectly appropriate pushback 191 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: and the newsroom woke people. 192 00:10:08,960 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 2: Are not right. Yeah, I would say that's clearly true. 193 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: And the allegation, and I don't want to spend all 194 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: our cash here, our rhetorical cash, but the allegation is 195 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: that this guy, this this Dacopel, is that his name 196 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: Tony Dcoppel, that he was biased in favor of Israel. 197 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: There was a biased journalist at CBS in the wake 198 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: of the recent debate where the two lovely ladies were 199 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 1: fact chacking only one side or if sixty minutes has 200 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: been a citadel of liberal journalism forever, edited kamaloa maker 201 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 1: sound less stupid. 202 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: Even in the last three days. The fact that somebody 203 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 2: might be kind of pro Israel. Well, that's the sort 204 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: of bias we can't have at CBS. 205 00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: You just put on the full clown outfit, put on 206 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: the red shoes, put on the nose and the wig, 207 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 1: and the weird jumpsuit. 208 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:18,479 Speaker 2: Clowns wear wear pants, clowns, but just you fully. 209 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: Be clowned yourselves, You hypocritical jackasses. 210 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 2: Clowns be clowning themselves. You hate to have that. 211 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll get into that. We'll play some of that. 212 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear it. I've only read it 213 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: in print and a bunch of other stuff. I'm pretty 214 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: excited about this lawsuit going forward against TikTok and what 215 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 1: it might or might not mean for all of social media. 216 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:44,520 Speaker 2: It's a heck of an interesting topic. 217 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 1: I've just learned more about how important TikTok is for 218 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 1: young people getting their news. 219 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 2: Shocking numbers. Wow, Yeah, I want to hear all that. 220 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 2: So how does mailbag look? 221 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: Oh? Fine and andy cool? That's on the way, and 222 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 1: here's our text line four one, two, nine five. Man 223 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,520 Speaker 1: I came across some punditry about the election and where 224 00:12:08,559 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 1: it stands now is really interesting and not good for 225 00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:14,800 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris but very thought provoking. 226 00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 2: I didn't realize. 227 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: Jd. Vance has an opinion piece in the Wall Street 228 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: Journal editorial section today on how the Harris Biden team 229 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: has mismanaged the hurricane. 230 00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 2: Yes. 231 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: Indeed, in fact, the timetable that I was describing in 232 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: the last segment was from it interesting. Yeah, and I 233 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,079 Speaker 1: was skeptical going in too, I mean, because these things 234 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 1: are always criticized, but when he lays out the specifics 235 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 1: of it, it is it's an indictment. I think of, 236 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: you know, maybe one party over the other, and we'll 237 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: get into that later, but just the federal government in 238 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 1: general and the trust we put in it is just 239 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: it's it's psychotic to me. I don't get what y'all 240 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,440 Speaker 1: are thinking. Not y'all the other y'all's anyway, fradom loving 241 00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: quote of the day, Oh y'all, George All. Y'all's from 242 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 1: George Washington is farewell addressed, oft quoted wistfully. Let me 243 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: now take a more comprehensive view and warn you, in 244 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 1: the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the 245 00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 1: spirit of party generally, not party as in fighting for 246 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: your right. 247 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:24,839 Speaker 2: To get the keg we're passing the hat. No, no 248 00:13:25,040 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 2: political parties. Indeed he was right, he was prescient. 249 00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 1: That was never a good idea at one point in 250 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,439 Speaker 1: my life, ever in my life, any party I was 251 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: ever at where they were like passion around a hat 252 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: for money for one more keg. The party was over. 253 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:39,959 Speaker 1: The good times were over. There are no more good 254 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 1: times to be had. It was never worth getting the 255 00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 1: money together, getting another keg, bringing it. 256 00:13:45,320 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: In and everything, and it was. 257 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:50,360 Speaker 1: It was all over by them recognizing the peak of something. Yes, 258 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: it's a real gift. I didn't when fueled by the 259 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 1: grape you put Most people are very. 260 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 2: Poor at that right. 261 00:13:58,440 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 1: I know. 262 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 2: I am mailbag. 263 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:04,559 Speaker 1: That is us a note recognizing the peak of a 264 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: of a of a party is not handled well by by. 265 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 2: Some people, including me. Want to keep that peak going. 266 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 1: Tom and so Cal writes, it may not be a 267 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,439 Speaker 1: freedom loving code of the day, but this is my 268 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: favorite quote from the show yesterday and we make a 269 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: great am G clip. Kamala Harris, when asked about what 270 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 1: she changed from the Biden administration, said there is not 271 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,600 Speaker 1: a thing that comes to mind. 272 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 2: I think we can all agree with that. 273 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 1: So she was asked that question on the view and 274 00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: then on Colbert last night, which I guess. She also 275 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 1: didn't have an answer or said nothing, so we'll play that. 276 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 2: For you later. 277 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 1: That was a great opportunity according to most pundits that 278 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: that that's your separate yourself carvenue way. I'm the change 279 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: candidate person in both cases, she went, not really, Oh yeah, yeah, 280 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: anybody with any political instincts, sir, indeed just reasonable for 281 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: verbal intelligence would be able to handle that question. 282 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 2: She's a dope. 283 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: Let's see a gs and Newcastle writes, FEMA is hell, guys. 284 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, we lost our home two cars in 285 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 1: the Santa Rosa tubs fire, along with our community owned 286 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 1: water system. I worked with FEMA on a grant help 287 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: restore water to our community. Worst experience in my life. 288 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: FEMA wasn't an insult in injury. They were the injury. 289 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: I suffered more dealing with them than trying to put 290 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: my life in home back together. At one point, until 291 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: the FEMA representative that dealing with them was a kind 292 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 1: of living in Dante's inferno. They deserve their own circle 293 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 1: of hell, and he goes into some detail. 294 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: Oh well, I'll go with it. 295 00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: Specifically, FEMA should be placed between the eighth circle of 296 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 1: hell fraud and the ninth circle of hell treachery. The 297 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 1: ninth round is reserved for traders to their lord's benefactors 298 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: or masters. The bureaucracy which FEMA exists only to serve 299 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:55,800 Speaker 1: and grow FEMA, not to serve the taxpayers who fund FEMA. Well, yeah, glasses, 300 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: glad they used the word buocracy. That's the important thing 301 00:15:58,480 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: to know. And I guess that was the point you're 302 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:04,120 Speaker 1: making earlier, is who believes in all these giant bureaucracies. 303 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 1: It's not the individual people at the VA that don't 304 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: care about veterans, or the people at FEMA that don't 305 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: they it's not that they don't care. Giant bureaucracies don't work. 306 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: They just don't, right, it should be should be known 307 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,840 Speaker 1: to everyone. Well, yes, indeed, they don't work in the 308 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: way we'd like them to. And I've got a brilliant 309 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: email on this topic that we're not gonna have time for. 310 00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: But they remember the iron law bureaucracy. They work quite 311 00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: well at what their new priority is, which is serving 312 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:39,640 Speaker 1: their own bureaucracy. They're very effective at that. Over time, 313 00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: bureaucracies go from serving a purpose to serving themselves always 314 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 1: it's the iron law of bureaucracy. Anyway, JT and Livermore said, 315 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,600 Speaker 1: we nailed it, then breezed right past it. The whole 316 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:53,840 Speaker 1: back and forth with a FEMA funds as they exposed 317 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 1: the Dems with their proverbial hand in the cookie jar. 318 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: At first I couldn't understand what they were doing and saying. 319 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: But after what Joe said, it has become perfectly clear. 320 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: Money is fundaible and never let a crisis go to 321 00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,280 Speaker 1: waste is the DEM's political bible rolled up into one phrase. 322 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: So they know national sympathy is going to be on 323 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:11,679 Speaker 1: the side of funding all the poor souls devastated by 324 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: the hurricanes. So they have already started to make their 325 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: case for getting more and more money. We'll talk more 326 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:19,200 Speaker 1: about this in the days to come. Absolutely, man, we 327 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 1: have so much to get to today. I hope you 328 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:21,280 Speaker 1: can stick around. 329 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty, Well, if anything, would you have done 330 00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 3: something differently than President Biden during the past four years. 331 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 6: There is not a thing that comes to mind in 332 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 6: terms of and I've been a part of most of 333 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 6: the decisions that. 334 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 2: Have had impact. So that was the first time yesterday 335 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 2: that Kamala Harrison. 336 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: One of her soft ball interview settings was asked, would 337 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: you have done anything differently. 338 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:57,240 Speaker 2: Than Joe Biden? 339 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,399 Speaker 1: And it was an opportunity to separate yourself from a 340 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 1: very unpopular president and add to the narrative that you're 341 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 1: a change candidate. And in both cases she she took 342 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,159 Speaker 1: a pass on it. We'll play the other one here 343 00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 1: in just a second. Here is Here is the uh 344 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 1: punditry from Mark Halpern on his newsletter today around those answers. 345 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 1: If these were prepared answers on which she executed, Heaven 346 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: help Wilmington. If these were ad libbed answers, Heaven help Wilmington. 347 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 2: How are you not? How did it not occur to anybody? 348 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: Because she seems to be incredibly prepared, Like I picture 349 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,440 Speaker 1: her spending a lot of time in rooms with managers 350 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 1: trying to figure out how they want to massage various things. 351 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 2: Definitely surely they touched on this topic at the right. 352 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 1: That's what boggles my mind so much is that she 353 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:59,280 Speaker 1: seems so you know, mechanical coached coached. Yeah, and yet 354 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 1: her coach answers are awful. Is there coaching that bad? 355 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,800 Speaker 1: Does she forget or I mean, I could offer a 356 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: couple of great ways to answer that, And I'm not 357 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: saying I'm a political genius, quite the opposite. 358 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 2: Or can she not execute it? That's the question. Anyway, 359 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,199 Speaker 2: Let's hear the same sort of thing on Colbert last night. 360 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 7: Polling shows that a lot of people, especially independent voters, 361 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 7: really want this to be a change election, and that 362 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 7: they tend to break for you in terms of thinking 363 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 7: about change. You are a numbered president administration under a 364 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 7: Harris administration. What would the major changes be and what 365 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 7: would say the same? 366 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,840 Speaker 6: Sure, Well, I mean I'm obviously not Joe Biden, and 367 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:45,399 Speaker 6: so that would be one change of But also I 368 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 6: think it's important to say with you know, twenty eight 369 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:49,160 Speaker 6: days ago, I'm not Donald Trump. 370 00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 1: So that's the line she used in that very first 371 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,119 Speaker 1: sit down interview. Well I'm not Joe Biden and then 372 00:19:59,200 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 1: she laughs with the that's that's a major point I 373 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 1: just made. 374 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:06,800 Speaker 2: No, it's not uh wow again, Well. 375 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,639 Speaker 1: Like Helpin wrote, if those were prepared answers, God help Wilmington, 376 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,920 Speaker 1: that's you know, that's where they're the campaign is based. 377 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 2: And if their ad libs, God help Womington. 378 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 1: I mean, neither way, it's not really good Anyway, she 379 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,520 Speaker 1: goes on, here, I actually haven't heard this. Executive producer 380 00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,119 Speaker 1: Hanson says, this is what kind of a typical Kamala Harris. 381 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 2: Oh, it's a peach really. 382 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 6: And so when we think about the significance of what 383 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,000 Speaker 6: this next generation of leadership looks like were I to 384 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 6: be elected president, it is about Frankly, I love the 385 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 6: American people, and I believe in our country. I love 386 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 6: that it is our character and nature to be an 387 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 6: ambitious people. You know, we we have aspirations, we have dreams, 388 00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 6: we are we have incredible work ethic and and I 389 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 6: just believe that we can create and build upon the 390 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 6: success we've achieved in a way that we continue to 391 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 6: grow opportunity and in that way grow the strength of 392 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,800 Speaker 6: our nation. So, for example, my economic policies, I think 393 00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 6: of it and I have named it as creating an 394 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 6: opportunity economy. 395 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 2: Wow. So she that was an answer to that, what 396 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 2: would you change? 397 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:24,200 Speaker 1: That was her answer, right, And she went back into 398 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 1: the whole world, hard working people with aspirations and blah 399 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: blah blah. We have dreams and aspirations. I mean like Belgians, 400 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: for instance, they got no dreams. They don't dream at 401 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 1: nights and just they die and then they wake up 402 00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:37,159 Speaker 1: and their aspirations are just to go on. 403 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:40,480 Speaker 2: Being a Belgian, I guess so fine with that whole thing, 404 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 2: not to have the meat of. 405 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: Substance between the two slices of bread play right, I'm 406 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: fine with that as like a flavor in some other answer. 407 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: But that is her go to answer on a detailed 408 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: question over and over again. So she's memorized that whole 409 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 1: spiel again. What I would like kind of what I 410 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: would like to know, is she putting it in the 411 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,680 Speaker 1: wrong place, like memorizing a guitar lick and you just 412 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 1: put it in the wrong place, or or although again 413 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: I must have said, she is playing the lick terribly. 414 00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 1: I mean, she's not even good at delivering the bull crap. 415 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: So here's the announce And I'm sorry I called that 416 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: the bread of the sandwich. That wasn't even that was 417 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: like the mustard. 418 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 2: I ordered a. 419 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: Sandwich and I got a bowl of mustard that was ridiculous, 420 00:22:30,160 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 1: literally laughable. God help Wilmings. And hey, hey the guy 421 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 1: the Republicans nominated. 422 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 2: He's died. 423 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: Well, right, so it's because they're tied that they're rolling 424 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,800 Speaker 1: around so much this week. She's got like six different appearances. 425 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: She did that podcast that most of us on the 426 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: right have never heard of, but I guess is a 427 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:55,439 Speaker 1: really big deal, and Colbert and the View and Stern, 428 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: and she's got a couple other things. So this is 429 00:22:57,920 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: the analysis from the Wide World News today that I 430 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 1: thought was really really good. Most of this debate in 431 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: the press and political circles about Harris's media strategy missus 432 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: three main points. One, She's not driving much news with 433 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,280 Speaker 1: these interviews, even as the campaign argues she's reaching Harris 434 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 1: curious information adverse potential voters. Her goal seems to be 435 00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 1: to get through these sessions unscathed. That is obviously true. 436 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,919 Speaker 1: So you're you've you've booked all these interviews because it's 437 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: a tide race and you need to move the needle. 438 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 1: Yet she goes in with the goal of just not 439 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: doing damage as opposed to moving the ball down the field. 440 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 2: And every fight is ropodope. Everyone yeah, yeah, and that 441 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 2: doesn't work. 442 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: At some point they know the whole ropodope thing is 443 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: you got to come off the ropes and throw some bunches, 444 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:52,959 Speaker 1: and she just she never does. She only ropodopes that's wild. 445 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: So what is your guess? What's Halpern's guess? Is it 446 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: that she's getting terrible advice or that she's unable to 447 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 1: execute the advice being given to her? 448 00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,680 Speaker 2: Let me read some more of this, okay too. 449 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: By being evasive in serious interviews as with sixty minutes 450 00:24:09,359 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: and light in the fluffy ones, she is failing to 451 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: fill in the blank. So what kind of president she 452 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: would be for those undecided voters who are at least 453 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: partially inclined to find her failure to provide the missing 454 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: pieces insulting. See, there's a reason she's not doing more 455 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: to fill in the blanks, just as there was a 456 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 1: reason that Joe Biden did not step out and step 457 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: up and do the town hall, the interviews, the Lettalla 458 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,160 Speaker 1: hang out appearances that he was told were the only 459 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 1: way to save his candidacy after his disastrous debate performance. 460 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 1: The dominant media continues to aid in a Bette Harris 461 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:48,000 Speaker 1: on these points. So what's being beyond implied stated there? 462 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: The reason she's not you just asked, is the same 463 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: reason Joe Biden didn't, even though everybody knew that was 464 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: the only way he could save his candidacy. 465 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:57,359 Speaker 2: The reason she's not. 466 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:02,879 Speaker 1: Is she can't. Yeah, that's the only conclusion you can 467 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 1: come to. Yeah, because it's the same as with Joe Biden. 468 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: Joe Biden, if he wanted to stay president, he had 469 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: to get out and do town halls and do tough 470 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 1: interviews and do press conferences. 471 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 2: He didn't. 472 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 1: Why he wasn't capable, certainly not. That is the only 473 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: real explanation can come up with Kamala hears. Also, I 474 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: find myself thinking back to the moments before, immediately before 475 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 1: and after Joe Biden dropped out of the race where 476 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 1: the Democratic big wigs were trying to decide the way 477 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 1: forward and listen, I don't sympathize with them at all, 478 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: but I've got to believe they were just completely anguished 479 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 1: at the idea of Look, the VEEP is clearly the 480 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 1: person to go to. I mean, you can consolidate support 481 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,360 Speaker 1: around the sitting vice president pretty quickly. But she's a moron. 482 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:52,359 Speaker 2: What do we do? 483 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: Well, we control her from behind the scenes, and we 484 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,399 Speaker 1: will keep her in the basement like Joe did it. 485 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: It'll be behind our said. We can't have a messy primary. 486 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: We can't, and we end up with this oh man, 487 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:10,640 Speaker 1: how can she not come up with something like, Hey, 488 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 1: I'm proud of what we accomplished in the Biden administration, 489 00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,920 Speaker 1: but we've learned, both Joe and I have learned from 490 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 1: our three and a half years in office, and we're 491 00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: gonna adjust our sales in some ways. For instance, some 492 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:26,600 Speaker 1: of the green technology we're counting on isn't quite ready yet, 493 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 1: so we're gonna allow a couple more years of fracking 494 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 1: and then transition those workers into the new green economy. 495 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: But we're not gonna make the transition yet. The technology 496 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: is just not d How can she not execute something 497 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: like that in Pennsylvania. It's not that hard. I'm pretty 498 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,360 Speaker 1: good at my job, but I'm not Shakespeare for here. 499 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: Well again, God, she's incompetent. 500 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 6: I think we aspirations. 501 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 1: We have dress Oh I think, Lord, I think both 502 00:26:53,080 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: of these points are right. 503 00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:55,440 Speaker 2: No more mustard. 504 00:26:55,760 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: There was a reason Joe Biden wouldn't do all those things, yes, 505 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: and we figured out what that was. There's also a 506 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 1: reason Kamala Harris is not doing them. We don't know 507 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 1: for sure what they are, but there's only a couple 508 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,280 Speaker 1: of choices. And then again, this, which I just think 509 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:15,400 Speaker 1: is perfect. If these were prepared answers. God help Wilmington. 510 00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:18,679 Speaker 1: If these were ad lived, God help Wilmington. 511 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 2: I think because there's no other choice, because those can't 512 00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 2: be the prepared answers. 513 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: Surely, David Ploff and all those smart people she's got 514 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: around her that ran Obama's campaign, like some of the 515 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 1: best minds in democratic circles, have. 516 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:41,119 Speaker 2: Had to come up with better answers than this. She 517 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 2: just can't execute it. I guess, you know, it's wild. 518 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 1: We've all dealt with experiences in life where we're trying 519 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 1: to get the second grade ready for the big concert 520 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: or the you know, the school play, and you're gonna 521 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 1: get you know, this level is as high as it's 522 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 1: gonna get. And that's fine because you're dealing with children. 523 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: But the David Pluffs of the world have to be 524 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: thinking how far down do we have to dumb this 525 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: before she can execute it? This is not a third 526 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: grade fall play. I wonder if she walks off the 527 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: stage and some of the campaign people sit with her 528 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: and say, uh, Kamala, do you not remember that like 529 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,919 Speaker 1: a couple hours we spent yesterday with the whole thing about. 530 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 2: The economy and the immigration and how we were going 531 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 2: to do this, and we love Joe Biden. 532 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: But you don't remember? Does that not ring a bell 533 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 1: at all? Do you remember any of that stuff? I'll 534 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: bet she choose them out because she's said to be 535 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 1: quite mean behind the scenes, and I'm never quite sure 536 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,720 Speaker 1: how seriously to take that sort of stuff. 537 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 2: Give me another glass of wine, that's what she says, Yes, 538 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 2: according to Saturday Night Live. But she's an angry drunk. 539 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 2: But it's all starting to fit together in my head now. 540 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: When she bungles the job as badly as she bungles it, 541 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 1: and then people point that out or try to coach 542 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 1: her to do better, that crashes against her ego and 543 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: her status. 544 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 2: I mean, she has achieved high office for reasons that 545 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 2: escape me. Actually I have an idea, but being a 546 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 2: box checking. 547 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: One party hot chick formerly, and I'm not making fun 548 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: age ravages us all. But I'm sure she reacts very 549 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 1: very badly to anything approaching scolding. 550 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 2: Well, I think we. 551 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: All forgot maybe what our opinion of her was before 552 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: she started running. Maybe just everybody was right. Obama was right, 553 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: we were right, everybody who thought she was completely incapable 554 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: of doing this. You're right, Oh, yeah, one hundred percent, 555 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: and no way should have been the nominee. If you 556 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 1: had a primary, she would have never ever She tried 557 00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:08,719 Speaker 1: it once and didn't even make it to the first contest. 558 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 1: Not a chance she would have ever ended up nominee 559 00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:15,000 Speaker 1: of a major party in a primary, which is pretty crazy, 560 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 1: if you will. Just before Joe Biden admitted to being senile. 561 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 1: In effect, her numbers were miserable, absolutely miserable. But there 562 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: was no promise, there was no a sun coming up 563 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:30,520 Speaker 1: over the horizon for her. Politically, she's a coin flip 564 00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 1: for being president of the United States, and there is 565 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,840 Speaker 1: zero chance you would have been the nominee in a primary. 566 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that's really quite the astounding turn of history. 567 00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 1: We've got Katie's headlines on the way stay here. Don't 568 00:30:43,720 --> 00:30:46,880 Speaker 1: even think you can get glitter flecked. I can't say 569 00:30:46,920 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: the word. It's a ton twister.
