Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the
Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Joy and he Armsrong live from Studio C.
Speaker 1: See signor a Category six swirl of information coming your
Speaker 1: way from the Armstrong and Getty Communications Compound. And today
Speaker 1: we're under the tutelage of our general manager. What's the
Speaker 1: hurricanes name again, Milton Milton. I ken't want him to
Speaker 1: say Winston.
Speaker 2: Winston would be a stupid name for a hurricane.
Speaker 1: That's the several hurricanes in the future. Milton is our
Speaker 1: general manager.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 1: We are a Category six interimation storm, but we are.
Speaker 2: Expected to weakened quickly. We will.
Speaker 1: That's we will weaken by landfall, no doubt about it.
Speaker 1: That is funny. Yeah, some of us are starting off
Speaker 1: a tad week. We will forge ahead.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I like the back and forth between DeSantis and Kamala Harris.
Speaker 2: I'm enjoying that.
Speaker 1: We'll have to play some of those clips a little
Speaker 1: bit later. It's just it's kind of fuck phony, load
Speaker 1: of hooey. Well, it's kind of funny because he clapped
Speaker 1: back at her and she accused him of politicizing the hurricane,
Speaker 1: and he said, look, you're the vice president. Why would
Speaker 1: I talk to you. You've never called before for any hurricanes.
Speaker 1: Of course she doesn't. The vice president doesn't call you
Speaker 1: when there's a hurricane. The president might, the vice president
Speaker 1: doesn't unless you're a candidate.
Speaker 2: So who's politicizing it? I mean, that's just kind of funny.
Speaker 2: Go get her, Go get her, Ronnie. I thought that
Speaker 2: was a good response.
Speaker 1: She's never called me for any of the other hurricanes
Speaker 1: over the last three and a half years. Oh, I
Speaker 1: love that. Why would she if somebody said the vice
Speaker 1: president's on the phone? Okay, well, maybe somebody ought to
Speaker 1: be put in charge of hurricane response so it goes
Speaker 1: better in the future. The more I learned, the more
Speaker 1: I convinced I am that it's just floundering. Yeah, general
Speaker 1: government is just floundering.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: So I was. I heard a clip on the way in,
Speaker 2: and I well, I have a knee jerk.
Speaker 1: I've always had a knee jerk reaction to any of
Speaker 1: these evacuate orders, just because the idea of the government
Speaker 1: telling me I got to leave my home rubs me
Speaker 1: the wrong way. I mean, just as much as anything
Speaker 1: could rub me the wrong way in general, and then
Speaker 1: you combine that with what are your other examples of
Speaker 1: you being right and doing a good job? The response
Speaker 1: to the last hurricane, how about the entire freaking pandemic.
Speaker 1: How about making me eat saturated fat instead of eggs
Speaker 1: as a kid. I mean, just endless examples of you
Speaker 1: being so wrong. And now you're telling me to leave
Speaker 1: my home behind so looters can have it. I'm not,
Speaker 1: you know, and I'm I think in this case they're
Speaker 1: probably right in the mayor saying you're gonna die if
Speaker 1: you stay in that sort of sort, But the way
Speaker 1: they come off, it's a we're the government, we know
Speaker 1: when you're surrounded by examples of you not knowing that
Speaker 1: are neck deep. Oh yeah, whether you know the question
Speaker 1: in this case they might be right is kind of irrelevant.
Speaker 1: It's just if you have information for me, any recommendation,
Speaker 1: I have no problem with receiving that.
Speaker 2: But yeah, don't come off as so high handed and authority.
Speaker 1: Are you the same people that said I got to
Speaker 1: stand six feet apart and then we found out that
Speaker 1: didn't mean anything, and you kept schools closed claiming this.
Speaker 2: I mean, you just there's all kinds of emergency things you.
Speaker 1: Covered for the Chinese communists because you hate Trump and
Speaker 1: doctor Fauci something something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you people are ridiculous.
Speaker 1: You know what I had forgotten? And I want to
Speaker 1: get off on this tangent. But I was listening to
Speaker 1: a podcast the other day about experts. This is what
Speaker 1: I'm complaining about right now because it came up in
Speaker 1: the vice presidential debate, jd Vance being for the crowd
Speaker 1: like me that don't believe in experts, and the response
Speaker 1: to that is, oh, you will go to a brain surgeon. Well, yeah,
Speaker 1: of course I believe a brain surgeon is an expert.
Speaker 1: But anything about the economy school from age four to
Speaker 1: twenty four, the endless examples of no, I don't believe
Speaker 1: the experts at freaking all. But one of the examples
Speaker 1: who came up in this discussion about it was when
Speaker 1: none of us could leave our homes, our kids couldn't
Speaker 1: play in the park nearby, all that sort of stuff.
Speaker 1: Then George Floyd gets killed and you're allowed to ride
Speaker 1: in the street, and they claimed that racism was a
Speaker 1: health concern. Racism was a health concern. That was really
Speaker 1: the end of I mean, come on, shut up. I
Speaker 1: don't want to hear it maturing logic, like it was
Speaker 1: a heretic in the Middle Ages.
Speaker 2: Yeah, cut it out.
Speaker 1: And then, like you just said to open with the
Speaker 1: hurricane response, the same people are telling me we absolutely
Speaker 1: know what this is going to be, like you need
Speaker 1: to leave. Are the same people that are handling the
Speaker 1: response so poorly?
Speaker 2: Sound right?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 2: Come on.
Speaker 1: The one part that really got to me was the timetable.
Speaker 1: And I had been looking for this and unable to
Speaker 1: find it. So six days after Helene madelandfall, six days later,
Speaker 1: the Defense Department announced a thousand troops had been authorized
Speaker 1: to deploy to the hurricane response zone. Okay, six days later,
Speaker 1: as evening fell on Friday the fourth, which was two
Speaker 1: days after that, that's day eight. Fewer than half of
Speaker 1: the one thousand troops were conducting any operations and deployed
Speaker 1: to western North Carolina.
Speaker 2: So it took eight days to get five hundred people there.
Speaker 2: You see hurricanes coming. It's funny.
Speaker 1: I've lived all over the country and you hear people
Speaker 1: talking about, oh, tornado, scare me, Oh Earth quite terrifying.
Speaker 2: Oh what about hurricanes?
Speaker 1: The thing about hurricanes is you see them coming per
Speaker 1: days sometimes well right, yeah, sometimes it's even a week,
Speaker 1: we get alf two weeks. But sometimes they change tracks.
Speaker 1: Sometimes they're stronger than expected, or or do what they
Speaker 1: did to the Carolinas, which was a bit of a surprise.
Speaker 2: But the idea that, oh, shoot, what do we do unders.
Speaker 1: Hurricanes troops, National Guard, eighty second Airborne from North Carolina,
Speaker 1: from North Carolina, it's worth mentioning.
Speaker 2: Six days later they think, yeah, yeah, we ought to
Speaker 2: authorize some troops.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, And it takes two more days to get
Speaker 1: five hundred active duty military personnel to the other side
Speaker 1: of the state. And what the hell is that? The
Speaker 1: other aspect of it that rubbed me the wrong way,
Speaker 1: in addition to the fact that they the government has
Speaker 1: been wrong about so many things my whole life, to
Speaker 1: all of a sudden act like we should.
Speaker 2: You know, believe you know what you're doing or you're on.
Speaker 1: Top of it is they always claim they're doing a
Speaker 1: good job. Always, that's the knee jerk reaction, whether it's
Speaker 1: Joe Biden the other day.
Speaker 2: No, everybody's go ahead, Michael. They're very happy Gulf the
Speaker 2: boards and everything they need. They're happy across the board.
Speaker 1: Is the same thing as George Bush, and Brownie, you're
Speaker 1: doing a hell of a job. That's what politicians do.
Speaker 1: They just say everybody's doing great all the time. That's
Speaker 1: there without any knowledge. That's just what they do. So
Speaker 1: aver ever ever admit to a mistake or even a
Speaker 1: B minus performance.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job.
Speaker 1: Now, Bush was unfairly treated in that whole thing, a
Speaker 1: different of course, but that particular thing was the same
Speaker 1: thing as Biden did the other day, where you just
Speaker 1: your knee, you're just automatic responses, Oh we're doing wrong.
Speaker 2: On top of everything, everything is fantastic. That's what they
Speaker 2: always say. They're very happy gulf the boards.
Speaker 1: Yeah, the dead people aren't in their grieving relatives aren't
Speaker 1: and those still waiting to be rescued, and those who
Speaker 1: won't have water electricity for months, they're not super happy
Speaker 1: across the board, mister Rehobeth beach dwelling, sun soaking absentee
Speaker 1: in chief.
Speaker 2: How about Harry Leggs? What we should get stay relevant?
Speaker 4: Sir?
Speaker 1: We should start the show officially. We got quite a
Speaker 1: bit of news today and the elections getting dang close.
Speaker 1: I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on this How did
Speaker 1: it already get to be? Wednesday, October ninth year, twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four, Life Will Not be a Born twenty four.
Speaker 1: We're armstrong, you getting We approve of this program. Here's
Speaker 1: the beginning of the show. Then officially, according to FCC
Speaker 1: rules and regulations at mark.
Speaker 4: I imagine if I took your name out of it,
Speaker 4: took away the awards and the acclaim, took the cover
Speaker 4: off the book, the publishing house goes away. The content
Speaker 4: of that section would not be out of place in
Speaker 4: the backpack of an extremist.
Speaker 1: That was a segment of the incredibly controversial interview CBS
Speaker 1: News had with the crackpot ideologue tnah See Coats the
Speaker 1: toast of the limousine liberal East Coast set.
Speaker 2: Which of the crap books did he write? White Fragility?
Speaker 2: Is that other woman? Rob anti racist? Is the other dude? Kendy?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: He uh. He wrote some books that were very well regarded.
Speaker 1: I did not read, and they made me pretty good.
Speaker 1: I can't remember the latest one is the Message, which
Speaker 1: is just a one sided He's given up on excoriating
Speaker 1: and demonizing the United States, well at least partly and
Speaker 1: now he's turned his gaze toward Israel. But the highlight
Speaker 1: being he got pushed kind of hard on CBS the
Speaker 1: Early Show the other day, and then there was a
Speaker 1: backlash among the lefty young people in the newsroom and
Speaker 1: it's turned into quite the scandal within CBS. We'll play
Speaker 1: some of that interview later. I didn't I didn't hear it,
Speaker 1: but the way i've I've read it being portrayed, admittedly
Speaker 1: in conservative circles, as it was a perfectly appropriate pushback
Speaker 1: and the newsroom woke people.
Speaker 2: Are not right. Yeah, I would say that's clearly true.
Speaker 1: And the allegation, and I don't want to spend all
Speaker 1: our cash here, our rhetorical cash, but the allegation is
Speaker 1: that this guy, this this Dacopel, is that his name
Speaker 1: Tony Dcoppel, that he was biased in favor of Israel.
Speaker 1: There was a biased journalist at CBS in the wake
Speaker 1: of the recent debate where the two lovely ladies were
Speaker 1: fact chacking only one side or if sixty minutes has
Speaker 1: been a citadel of liberal journalism forever, edited kamaloa maker
Speaker 1: sound less stupid.
Speaker 2: Even in the last three days. The fact that somebody
Speaker 2: might be kind of pro Israel. Well, that's the sort
Speaker 2: of bias we can't have at CBS.
Speaker 1: You just put on the full clown outfit, put on
Speaker 1: the red shoes, put on the nose and the wig,
Speaker 1: and the weird jumpsuit.
Speaker 2: Clowns wear wear pants, clowns, but just you fully.
Speaker 1: Be clowned yourselves, You hypocritical jackasses.
Speaker 2: Clowns be clowning themselves. You hate to have that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so we'll get into that. We'll play some of that.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear it. I've only read it
Speaker 1: in print and a bunch of other stuff. I'm pretty
Speaker 1: excited about this lawsuit going forward against TikTok and what
Speaker 1: it might or might not mean for all of social media.
Speaker 2: It's a heck of an interesting topic.
Speaker 1: I've just learned more about how important TikTok is for
Speaker 1: young people getting their news.
Speaker 2: Shocking numbers. Wow, Yeah, I want to hear all that.
Speaker 2: So how does mailbag look?
Speaker 1: Oh? Fine and andy cool? That's on the way, and
Speaker 1: here's our text line four one, two, nine five. Man
Speaker 1: I came across some punditry about the election and where
Speaker 1: it stands now is really interesting and not good for
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris but very thought provoking.
Speaker 2: I didn't realize.
Speaker 1: Jd. Vance has an opinion piece in the Wall Street
Speaker 1: Journal editorial section today on how the Harris Biden team
Speaker 1: has mismanaged the hurricane.
Speaker 2: Yes.
Speaker 1: Indeed, in fact, the timetable that I was describing in
Speaker 1: the last segment was from it interesting. Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: was skeptical going in too, I mean, because these things
Speaker 1: are always criticized, but when he lays out the specifics
Speaker 1: of it, it is it's an indictment. I think of,
Speaker 1: you know, maybe one party over the other, and we'll
Speaker 1: get into that later, but just the federal government in
Speaker 1: general and the trust we put in it is just
Speaker 1: it's it's psychotic to me. I don't get what y'all
Speaker 1: are thinking. Not y'all the other y'all's anyway, fradom loving
Speaker 1: quote of the day, Oh y'all, George All. Y'all's from
Speaker 1: George Washington is farewell addressed, oft quoted wistfully. Let me
Speaker 1: now take a more comprehensive view and warn you, in
Speaker 1: the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the
Speaker 1: spirit of party generally, not party as in fighting for
Speaker 1: your right.
Speaker 2: To get the keg we're passing the hat. No, no
Speaker 2: political parties. Indeed he was right, he was prescient.
Speaker 1: That was never a good idea at one point in
Speaker 1: my life, ever in my life, any party I was
Speaker 1: ever at where they were like passion around a hat
Speaker 1: for money for one more keg. The party was over.
Speaker 1: The good times were over. There are no more good
Speaker 1: times to be had. It was never worth getting the
Speaker 1: money together, getting another keg, bringing it.
Speaker 2: In and everything, and it was.
Speaker 1: It was all over by them recognizing the peak of something. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's a real gift. I didn't when fueled by the
Speaker 1: grape you put Most people are very.
Speaker 2: Poor at that right.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: I am mailbag.
Speaker 1: That is us a note recognizing the peak of a
Speaker 1: of a of a party is not handled well by by.
Speaker 2: Some people, including me. Want to keep that peak going.
Speaker 1: Tom and so Cal writes, it may not be a
Speaker 1: freedom loving code of the day, but this is my
Speaker 1: favorite quote from the show yesterday and we make a
Speaker 1: great am G clip. Kamala Harris, when asked about what
Speaker 1: she changed from the Biden administration, said there is not
Speaker 1: a thing that comes to mind.
Speaker 2: I think we can all agree with that.
Speaker 1: So she was asked that question on the view and
Speaker 1: then on Colbert last night, which I guess. She also
Speaker 1: didn't have an answer or said nothing, so we'll play that.
Speaker 2: For you later.
Speaker 1: That was a great opportunity according to most pundits that
Speaker 1: that that's your separate yourself carvenue way. I'm the change
Speaker 1: candidate person in both cases, she went, not really, Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: anybody with any political instincts, sir, indeed just reasonable for
Speaker 1: verbal intelligence would be able to handle that question.
Speaker 2: She's a dope.
Speaker 1: Let's see a gs and Newcastle writes, FEMA is hell, guys.
Speaker 1: In twenty seventeen, we lost our home two cars in
Speaker 1: the Santa Rosa tubs fire, along with our community owned
Speaker 1: water system. I worked with FEMA on a grant help
Speaker 1: restore water to our community. Worst experience in my life.
Speaker 1: FEMA wasn't an insult in injury. They were the injury.
Speaker 1: I suffered more dealing with them than trying to put
Speaker 1: my life in home back together. At one point, until
Speaker 1: the FEMA representative that dealing with them was a kind
Speaker 1: of living in Dante's inferno. They deserve their own circle
Speaker 1: of hell, and he goes into some detail.
Speaker 2: Oh well, I'll go with it.
Speaker 1: Specifically, FEMA should be placed between the eighth circle of
Speaker 1: hell fraud and the ninth circle of hell treachery. The
Speaker 1: ninth round is reserved for traders to their lord's benefactors
Speaker 1: or masters. The bureaucracy which FEMA exists only to serve
Speaker 1: and grow FEMA, not to serve the taxpayers who fund FEMA. Well, yeah, glasses,
Speaker 1: glad they used the word buocracy. That's the important thing
Speaker 1: to know. And I guess that was the point you're
Speaker 1: making earlier, is who believes in all these giant bureaucracies.
Speaker 1: It's not the individual people at the VA that don't
Speaker 1: care about veterans, or the people at FEMA that don't
Speaker 1: they it's not that they don't care. Giant bureaucracies don't work.
Speaker 1: They just don't, right, it should be should be known
Speaker 1: to everyone. Well, yes, indeed, they don't work in the
Speaker 1: way we'd like them to. And I've got a brilliant
Speaker 1: email on this topic that we're not gonna have time for.
Speaker 1: But they remember the iron law bureaucracy. They work quite
Speaker 1: well at what their new priority is, which is serving
Speaker 1: their own bureaucracy. They're very effective at that. Over time,
Speaker 1: bureaucracies go from serving a purpose to serving themselves always
Speaker 1: it's the iron law of bureaucracy. Anyway, JT and Livermore said,
Speaker 1: we nailed it, then breezed right past it. The whole
Speaker 1: back and forth with a FEMA funds as they exposed
Speaker 1: the Dems with their proverbial hand in the cookie jar.
Speaker 1: At first I couldn't understand what they were doing and saying.
Speaker 1: But after what Joe said, it has become perfectly clear.
Speaker 1: Money is fundaible and never let a crisis go to
Speaker 1: waste is the DEM's political bible rolled up into one phrase.
Speaker 1: So they know national sympathy is going to be on
Speaker 1: the side of funding all the poor souls devastated by
Speaker 1: the hurricanes. So they have already started to make their
Speaker 1: case for getting more and more money. We'll talk more
Speaker 1: about this in the days to come. Absolutely, man, we
Speaker 1: have so much to get to today. I hope you
Speaker 1: can stick around.
Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty, Well, if anything, would you have done
Speaker 3: something differently than President Biden during the past four years.
Speaker 6: There is not a thing that comes to mind in
Speaker 6: terms of and I've been a part of most of
Speaker 6: the decisions that.
Speaker 2: Have had impact. So that was the first time yesterday
Speaker 2: that Kamala Harrison.
Speaker 1: One of her soft ball interview settings was asked, would
Speaker 1: you have done anything differently.
Speaker 2: Than Joe Biden?
Speaker 1: And it was an opportunity to separate yourself from a
Speaker 1: very unpopular president and add to the narrative that you're
Speaker 1: a change candidate. And in both cases she she took
Speaker 1: a pass on it. We'll play the other one here
Speaker 1: in just a second. Here is Here is the uh
Speaker 1: punditry from Mark Halpern on his newsletter today around those answers.
Speaker 1: If these were prepared answers on which she executed, Heaven
Speaker 1: help Wilmington. If these were ad libbed answers, Heaven help Wilmington.
Speaker 2: How are you not? How did it not occur to anybody?
Speaker 1: Because she seems to be incredibly prepared, Like I picture
Speaker 1: her spending a lot of time in rooms with managers
Speaker 1: trying to figure out how they want to massage various things.
Speaker 2: Definitely surely they touched on this topic at the right.
Speaker 1: That's what boggles my mind so much is that she
Speaker 1: seems so you know, mechanical coached coached. Yeah, and yet
Speaker 1: her coach answers are awful. Is there coaching that bad?
Speaker 1: Does she forget or I mean, I could offer a
Speaker 1: couple of great ways to answer that, And I'm not
Speaker 1: saying I'm a political genius, quite the opposite.
Speaker 2: Or can she not execute it? That's the question. Anyway,
Speaker 2: Let's hear the same sort of thing on Colbert last night.
Speaker 7: Polling shows that a lot of people, especially independent voters,
Speaker 7: really want this to be a change election, and that
Speaker 7: they tend to break for you in terms of thinking
Speaker 7: about change. You are a numbered president administration under a
Speaker 7: Harris administration. What would the major changes be and what
Speaker 7: would say the same?
Speaker 6: Sure, Well, I mean I'm obviously not Joe Biden, and
Speaker 6: so that would be one change of But also I
Speaker 6: think it's important to say with you know, twenty eight
Speaker 6: days ago, I'm not Donald Trump.
Speaker 1: So that's the line she used in that very first
Speaker 1: sit down interview. Well I'm not Joe Biden and then
Speaker 1: she laughs with the that's that's a major point I
Speaker 1: just made.
Speaker 2: No, it's not uh wow again, Well.
Speaker 1: Like Helpin wrote, if those were prepared answers, God help Wilmington,
Speaker 1: that's you know, that's where they're the campaign is based.
Speaker 2: And if their ad libs, God help Womington.
Speaker 1: I mean, neither way, it's not really good Anyway, she
Speaker 1: goes on, here, I actually haven't heard this. Executive producer
Speaker 1: Hanson says, this is what kind of a typical Kamala Harris.
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a peach really.
Speaker 6: And so when we think about the significance of what
Speaker 6: this next generation of leadership looks like were I to
Speaker 6: be elected president, it is about Frankly, I love the
Speaker 6: American people, and I believe in our country. I love
Speaker 6: that it is our character and nature to be an
Speaker 6: ambitious people. You know, we we have aspirations, we have dreams,
Speaker 6: we are we have incredible work ethic and and I
Speaker 6: just believe that we can create and build upon the
Speaker 6: success we've achieved in a way that we continue to
Speaker 6: grow opportunity and in that way grow the strength of
Speaker 6: our nation. So, for example, my economic policies, I think
Speaker 6: of it and I have named it as creating an
Speaker 6: opportunity economy.
Speaker 2: Wow. So she that was an answer to that, what
Speaker 2: would you change?
Speaker 1: That was her answer, right, And she went back into
Speaker 1: the whole world, hard working people with aspirations and blah
Speaker 1: blah blah. We have dreams and aspirations. I mean like Belgians,
Speaker 1: for instance, they got no dreams. They don't dream at
Speaker 1: nights and just they die and then they wake up
Speaker 1: and their aspirations are just to go on.
Speaker 2: Being a Belgian, I guess so fine with that whole thing,
Speaker 2: not to have the meat of.
Speaker 1: Substance between the two slices of bread play right, I'm
Speaker 1: fine with that as like a flavor in some other answer.
Speaker 1: But that is her go to answer on a detailed
Speaker 1: question over and over again. So she's memorized that whole
Speaker 1: spiel again. What I would like kind of what I
Speaker 1: would like to know, is she putting it in the
Speaker 1: wrong place, like memorizing a guitar lick and you just
Speaker 1: put it in the wrong place, or or although again
Speaker 1: I must have said, she is playing the lick terribly.
Speaker 1: I mean, she's not even good at delivering the bull crap.
Speaker 1: So here's the announce And I'm sorry I called that
Speaker 1: the bread of the sandwich. That wasn't even that was
Speaker 1: like the mustard.
Speaker 2: I ordered a.
Speaker 1: Sandwich and I got a bowl of mustard that was ridiculous,
Speaker 1: literally laughable. God help Wilmings. And hey, hey the guy
Speaker 1: the Republicans nominated.
Speaker 2: He's died.
Speaker 1: Well, right, so it's because they're tied that they're rolling
Speaker 1: around so much this week. She's got like six different appearances.
Speaker 1: She did that podcast that most of us on the
Speaker 1: right have never heard of, but I guess is a
Speaker 1: really big deal, and Colbert and the View and Stern,
Speaker 1: and she's got a couple other things. So this is
Speaker 1: the analysis from the Wide World News today that I
Speaker 1: thought was really really good. Most of this debate in
Speaker 1: the press and political circles about Harris's media strategy missus
Speaker 1: three main points. One, She's not driving much news with
Speaker 1: these interviews, even as the campaign argues she's reaching Harris
Speaker 1: curious information adverse potential voters. Her goal seems to be
Speaker 1: to get through these sessions unscathed. That is obviously true.
Speaker 1: So you're you've you've booked all these interviews because it's
Speaker 1: a tide race and you need to move the needle.
Speaker 1: Yet she goes in with the goal of just not
Speaker 1: doing damage as opposed to moving the ball down the field.
Speaker 2: And every fight is ropodope. Everyone yeah, yeah, and that
Speaker 2: doesn't work.
Speaker 1: At some point they know the whole ropodope thing is
Speaker 1: you got to come off the ropes and throw some bunches,
Speaker 1: and she just she never does. She only ropodopes that's wild.
Speaker 1: So what is your guess? What's Halpern's guess? Is it
Speaker 1: that she's getting terrible advice or that she's unable to
Speaker 1: execute the advice being given to her?
Speaker 2: Let me read some more of this, okay too.
Speaker 1: By being evasive in serious interviews as with sixty minutes
Speaker 1: and light in the fluffy ones, she is failing to
Speaker 1: fill in the blank. So what kind of president she
Speaker 1: would be for those undecided voters who are at least
Speaker 1: partially inclined to find her failure to provide the missing
Speaker 1: pieces insulting. See, there's a reason she's not doing more
Speaker 1: to fill in the blanks, just as there was a
Speaker 1: reason that Joe Biden did not step out and step
Speaker 1: up and do the town hall, the interviews, the Lettalla
Speaker 1: hang out appearances that he was told were the only
Speaker 1: way to save his candidacy after his disastrous debate performance.
Speaker 1: The dominant media continues to aid in a Bette Harris
Speaker 1: on these points. So what's being beyond implied stated there?
Speaker 1: The reason she's not you just asked, is the same
Speaker 1: reason Joe Biden didn't, even though everybody knew that was
Speaker 1: the only way he could save his candidacy.
Speaker 2: The reason she's not.
Speaker 1: Is she can't. Yeah, that's the only conclusion you can
Speaker 1: come to. Yeah, because it's the same as with Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: Joe Biden, if he wanted to stay president, he had
Speaker 1: to get out and do town halls and do tough
Speaker 1: interviews and do press conferences.
Speaker 2: He didn't.
Speaker 1: Why he wasn't capable, certainly not. That is the only
Speaker 1: real explanation can come up with Kamala hears. Also, I
Speaker 1: find myself thinking back to the moments before, immediately before
Speaker 1: and after Joe Biden dropped out of the race where
Speaker 1: the Democratic big wigs were trying to decide the way
Speaker 1: forward and listen, I don't sympathize with them at all,
Speaker 1: but I've got to believe they were just completely anguished
Speaker 1: at the idea of Look, the VEEP is clearly the
Speaker 1: person to go to. I mean, you can consolidate support
Speaker 1: around the sitting vice president pretty quickly. But she's a moron.
Speaker 2: What do we do?
Speaker 1: Well, we control her from behind the scenes, and we
Speaker 1: will keep her in the basement like Joe did it.
Speaker 2: It'll be behind our said. We can't have a messy primary.
Speaker 1: We can't, and we end up with this oh man,
Speaker 1: how can she not come up with something like, Hey,
Speaker 1: I'm proud of what we accomplished in the Biden administration,
Speaker 1: but we've learned, both Joe and I have learned from
Speaker 1: our three and a half years in office, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna adjust our sales in some ways. For instance, some
Speaker 1: of the green technology we're counting on isn't quite ready yet,
Speaker 1: so we're gonna allow a couple more years of fracking
Speaker 1: and then transition those workers into the new green economy.
Speaker 1: But we're not gonna make the transition yet. The technology
Speaker 1: is just not d How can she not execute something
Speaker 1: like that in Pennsylvania. It's not that hard. I'm pretty
Speaker 1: good at my job, but I'm not Shakespeare for here.
Speaker 2: Well again, God, she's incompetent.
Speaker 6: I think we aspirations.
Speaker 1: We have dress Oh I think, Lord, I think both
Speaker 1: of these points are right.
Speaker 2: No more mustard.
Speaker 1: There was a reason Joe Biden wouldn't do all those things, yes,
Speaker 1: and we figured out what that was. There's also a
Speaker 1: reason Kamala Harris is not doing them. We don't know
Speaker 1: for sure what they are, but there's only a couple
Speaker 1: of choices. And then again, this, which I just think
Speaker 1: is perfect. If these were prepared answers. God help Wilmington.
Speaker 1: If these were ad lived, God help Wilmington.
Speaker 2: I think because there's no other choice, because those can't
Speaker 2: be the prepared answers.
Speaker 1: Surely, David Ploff and all those smart people she's got
Speaker 1: around her that ran Obama's campaign, like some of the
Speaker 1: best minds in democratic circles, have.
Speaker 2: Had to come up with better answers than this. She
Speaker 2: just can't execute it. I guess, you know, it's wild.
Speaker 1: We've all dealt with experiences in life where we're trying
Speaker 1: to get the second grade ready for the big concert
Speaker 1: or the you know, the school play, and you're gonna
Speaker 1: get you know, this level is as high as it's
Speaker 1: gonna get. And that's fine because you're dealing with children.
Speaker 1: But the David Pluffs of the world have to be
Speaker 1: thinking how far down do we have to dumb this
Speaker 1: before she can execute it? This is not a third
Speaker 1: grade fall play. I wonder if she walks off the
Speaker 1: stage and some of the campaign people sit with her
Speaker 1: and say, uh, Kamala, do you not remember that like
Speaker 1: a couple hours we spent yesterday with the whole thing about.
Speaker 2: The economy and the immigration and how we were going
Speaker 2: to do this, and we love Joe Biden.
Speaker 1: But you don't remember? Does that not ring a bell
Speaker 1: at all? Do you remember any of that stuff? I'll
Speaker 1: bet she choose them out because she's said to be
Speaker 1: quite mean behind the scenes, and I'm never quite sure
Speaker 1: how seriously to take that sort of stuff.
Speaker 2: Give me another glass of wine, that's what she says, Yes,
Speaker 2: according to Saturday Night Live. But she's an angry drunk.
Speaker 2: But it's all starting to fit together in my head now.
Speaker 1: When she bungles the job as badly as she bungles it,
Speaker 1: and then people point that out or try to coach
Speaker 1: her to do better, that crashes against her ego and
Speaker 1: her status.
Speaker 2: I mean, she has achieved high office for reasons that
Speaker 2: escape me. Actually I have an idea, but being a
Speaker 2: box checking.
Speaker 1: One party hot chick formerly, and I'm not making fun
Speaker 1: age ravages us all. But I'm sure she reacts very
Speaker 1: very badly to anything approaching scolding.
Speaker 2: Well, I think we.
Speaker 1: All forgot maybe what our opinion of her was before
Speaker 1: she started running. Maybe just everybody was right. Obama was right,
Speaker 1: we were right, everybody who thought she was completely incapable
Speaker 1: of doing this. You're right, Oh, yeah, one hundred percent,
Speaker 1: and no way should have been the nominee. If you
Speaker 1: had a primary, she would have never ever She tried
Speaker 1: it once and didn't even make it to the first contest.
Speaker 1: Not a chance she would have ever ended up nominee
Speaker 1: of a major party in a primary, which is pretty crazy,
Speaker 1: if you will. Just before Joe Biden admitted to being senile.
Speaker 1: In effect, her numbers were miserable, absolutely miserable. But there
Speaker 1: was no promise, there was no a sun coming up
Speaker 1: over the horizon for her. Politically, she's a coin flip
Speaker 1: for being president of the United States, and there is
Speaker 1: zero chance you would have been the nominee in a primary.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's really quite the astounding turn of history.
Speaker 1: We've got Katie's headlines on the way stay here. Don't
Speaker 1: even think you can get glitter flecked. I can't say
Speaker 1: the word. It's a ton twister. Don't even think you
Speaker 1: can get glitter freckles anywhere. You can't. They're sold out
Speaker 1: all across the country. Taylor Swift wore glitter freckles on
Speaker 1: Monday Night football the other night. They're sold out across
Speaker 1: the United States. Are only like sixteen dollars, but so
Speaker 1: forget it. It's gonna take a while before we get
Speaker 1: another shipment from China. Two stores across the country of
Speaker 1: glitter freckles. All right, Hansome, figure out what it'll take
Speaker 1: to get an amng T shirt on Taylor Swift. All right,
Speaker 1: whatever it costs. Yesler must be the employd do it.
Speaker 2: I was wondering why Hanson was wearing those freckles today.
Speaker 1: Exactly he got the last batch of glitter freckles. They
Speaker 1: are becoming yep, let's figure out who's reporting what. It's
Speaker 1: the lead story with Katie Green Katie from ABC News.
Speaker 5: Florida is bracing for night landfall near Sarasota of Hurricane Milton.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, so tonight or tomorrow morning, it's gonna.
Speaker 5: Be a monster from USA Today, Harris calls DeSantis quote
Speaker 5: selfish when.
Speaker 2: Florida needs help, not political games.
Speaker 1: Oh she is of scene, she's obnoxious, she's evil and dopey.
Speaker 5: NBC News Net and Yahoo warns Lebanon of destruction and
Speaker 5: suffering in the future.
Speaker 1: Israel is really wiping out Hamas and Hezbollah kinda like
Speaker 1: not behind the scenes, but I wonder, I wonder if
Speaker 1: there's a chance the White House is you know, all
Speaker 1: this claim of where we're just we can't escalate, we
Speaker 1: don't want all out war while they realize it is
Speaker 1: all out war and Israel's winning. And if they just
Speaker 1: keep saying we can't have all out war, it'll keep
Speaker 1: that left flank like at Bay.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. I would.
Speaker 1: I would buy that explanation, and I've actually made it myself.
Speaker 1: But this is Joe Biden foreign policy halting, uncertain, not
Speaker 1: even half measures, quarter measures.
Speaker 2: He's spineless.
Speaker 1: Do you see how many more Hesibala leaders? I don't
Speaker 1: even know how many they got or who's left. I mean,
Speaker 1: somebody's got to be in charge on any given day,
Speaker 1: but they just keep dying. I saw that the story
Speaker 1: the other day that the head guy got snuffed and
Speaker 1: the next day was it the guy elected to take
Speaker 1: his place got snuffed and the guy they nominated say
Speaker 1: his place after that literally said I don't think I'm
Speaker 1: the men for the job. But they got their like
Speaker 1: their treasurer, their paular parliamentarian, the receptionist.
Speaker 2: I mean, everybody is getting killing.
Speaker 5: Wolf study finds eighty percent of Americans fear World War
Speaker 5: III is imminent.
Speaker 2: Put me in that eighty percent. I just saw.
Speaker 1: South Korea is reporting that North Korea is planning to
Speaker 1: send some of their own troops to help Russia and Ukraine.
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, boy, and Russia is still employing the
Speaker 1: traditional Russian method of just pouring guys into the machine
Speaker 1: gun fire. Yeah, we got more, and you got bullets.
Speaker 2: Kill them all. We'll send more.
Speaker 5: From the New York Times, three percent of American high
Speaker 5: schoolers identify as transgender, according to first national survey.
