Then our two centats, John 79 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 4: alsof and Raphael Warnock, who flipped the state blue and 80 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 4: allowed Joe Biden to achieve everything in his legislative agenda. 81 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 4: And then we had Mega the Stallion and then they 82 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 4: tell me that Kamala Harris is coming out and they 83 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 4: play one of my favorite songs. So I'm excited for 84 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 4: the next generation.

So Parker, young guy 87 00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: tell us Michelle Obama, one of the things we're going 88 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 2: to talk about talks about the feeling of a pit 89 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 2: in their stomach. Yesterday kind of a little subtle dig 90 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 2: at Joe Biden there, since he literally was I believe 91 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 2: she didn't even say his name, which we'll get to 92 00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 2: in a little bit. So then as somebody part of 93 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 2: the act of is faithful in state of Georgia obviously 94 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 2: a critical state for Joe Biden barely went it by 95 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 2: what some ten thousand votes. 96 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 4: Seven or seventy nine? 97 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 2: Oh wow, look at this, I'm dealing with the professional 98 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 2: over here. 99 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:22,480 Speaker 3: Yea Trump. 100 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 7: So let's le let's put Parker in context too.

Well in where do you put your poetic. 103 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 4: Well, I like to consider myself. I like to consider myself, 104 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 4: you know, a progressive, whatever that word may mean. I 105 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 4: am a fan of the show.

Were you 124 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 2: guys excited, like, talk to us about that feeling leaf, 125 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 2: et cetera. 126 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, So I'll just start with the debate. Look, 127 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 4: I got invited to the Georgia Democrat debate party. 128 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I did not go. 129 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 4: I was, you know, not not as a slight. I 130 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 4: went to the Gwinnett Young Democrats debate. First, I watched 131 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:51,520 Speaker 4: the first five to ten minutes. I watched the first 132 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 4: five ten minutes and I was like, I need to 133 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 4: go home. I need to go home. And you know what, 134 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 4: I love and respect Joe Biden. He has been a 135 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 4: great public service. He was elected as the youngest they're 136 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,359 Speaker 4: in the country. He's had a very interesting journey. But 137 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 4: you know what, thank God that he had the political 138 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 4: sense to step aside and put his country first, because 139 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 4: Trump has put at his party and himself over his 140 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,159 Speaker 4: country and the Constitution. And Joe Biden knew that he 141 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 4: wasn't the candidate and it wasn't the time. And I 142 00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 4: respect a man and push comes the shelf. There was 143 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 4: no way I was voting for Donald Trump. But you know, 144 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,479 Speaker 4: after that debate, I'm like, Okay, what's going to happen? 145 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 4: You know, because I was a delegate and we were 146 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 4: wringing our hands for a couple of weeks. And I 147 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 4: would have look, if you would have asked me three 148 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 4: months ago if Democrats were gonna win Georgia, I would 149 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 4: have been very frank with you. You know, I would 150 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 4: have said, no, I love Georgia politics, and I didn't 151 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 4: think we were sending ourselves up to win. We are 152 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 4: now setting ourselves up to win. 153 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 3: Interesting, yeah, we I ask a question on that because 154 00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 3: I've been reading some conservative media this morning, even but 155 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 3: throughout the week saying that you know, every convention, obviously 156 00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 3: we all understand this is super stage managed. It's meant 157 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: to look, meant to put the party looking like it 158 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 3: has the most hype as is humanly possible, and it's 159 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 3: you know, they're kind of used to doing that, They've 160 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 3: done it before. So some people in conservative media are 161 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: like that magic that Michelle Obama referenced yesterday, it's not real. 162 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 3: It's a sugar hide. During the week of the convention, 163 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 3: it sounds to me like what you're saying Parker is. 164 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 3: And this has been my impression just walking through the 165 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 3: arena yesterday. It actually does feel real. It feels quite 166 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 3: electric to me. Do people seem genuinely excited about Kamala Harris, 167 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 3: which is interesting because just a couple months ago people 168 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 3: were worried about Kamala Harris. What's the change? 169 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 4: Well, you know what I will say, like, as a 170 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 4: Georgia Democratic activist or whatever you want to call it, 171 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 4: she has made every single right decision. You know, I 172 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 4: have friend young friends in Georgia politics. You know, in 173 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:43,640 Speaker 4: the Democratic Party is just about the most far left 174 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 4: and most far right person you're going to find Georgia 175 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 4: Democrat Party. They both about jumped out of their seats 176 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: when Tim Waltz was the choice. You know, I think 177 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 4: she has made so many wonderful choices throughout her campaign. 178 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 4: We got twenty four campaign offices in state Georgia. I 179 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 4: love her staff in the state of Georgia. They are 180 00:07:58,480 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 4: really doing a good job. 181 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:01,600 Speaker 2: Staff isn't just a Biden. 182 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:04,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know Biden's staff like they had. They 183 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 4: had hired Quentin Folks who ran Warnocks campaign, to be 184 00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 4: the deputy campaign manager. So they had a lot of 185 00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 4: Georgia focus. And all the folks that we had on 186 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 4: the ground have been doing it for years. Okay, look, 187 00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 4: I love Stacy Abrams, but too many folks came from 188 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 4: out of state on that election. You know, you want 189 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 4: people who have been there doing it, and you know, 190 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 4: they have such a great campaign. They're out there knocking 191 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 4: doors and as I said, seven and seventy nine votes 192 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 4: made the difference at that time. That's a field margin. 193 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 4: That is a field margin in a presidential race. And 194 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:32,160 Speaker 4: the way say that, well, that's basically you know, the 195 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 4: energy and folks out there knocking doors when you got 196 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 4: volunteers like me who when I was a low kid, 197 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 4: I want to knock tens and thousands of doors for 198 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 4: John Ossoff in my state House and state Senate candidate. 199 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 4: And you know, I organized my high school Democrats club 200 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 4: and we knocked more than three hundred thousand doors for 201 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 4: this guy that ran for State House up in North 202 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 4: to cab and you know what, he won by fourteen 203 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 4: hundred votes. And then Lucy McBeth won the seat that 204 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 4: John Ossoff lost by three thousand votes. So it shows 205 00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 4: that you can really fight and you can get in 206 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:58,680 Speaker 4: there and make the difference. A field margin is basically 207 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 4: like are you out there, are you doing the work? 208 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:02,960 Speaker 4: Are you organized? And look, we're making the difference. And 209 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 4: I will just say I think the most important thing 210 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 4: is down ballot candidates. I love to tell people who's 211 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 4: your state House rep. Who's your state Senator, who's your 212 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 4: county commissioner? Because that is really what impacts your life 213 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 4: and when you get engaged with those elections. We've got 214 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 4: young folks running for state House and state Senate in Georgia. 215 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,680 Speaker 4: One of my best friends is twenty three. He's a 216 00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:22,959 Speaker 4: middle school math teacher in Atlanta and he's running against 217 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 4: an anti education Republican And the reason I became president 218 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 4: is because he's I was his vice president. He stepped 219 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 4: down and. 220 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 7: Let that slide. 221 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I like you, Parker, But go ahead, Ryan. 222 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm curious. 223 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 7: You know, we hear a lot about Gaza and how 224 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 7: that affects young people. Yeah, how how what was the 225 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 7: case when it came to Gaza and young people's support 226 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 7: in Georgia for Biden and has been changed with Harris? 227 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 5: You know? 228 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 7: And where do you think it will go if we 229 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 7: don't get a ceasefire deal and the slaughter just continues, 230 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 7: which looks like, you know, everybody's a deals right around 231 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 7: the corner, and we'll believe it when we see it. 232 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. It's truly just heartbreaking what is going on. 233 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 4: And I recently graduated from the University of Michigan and 234 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 4: there was a lot of campus protests there, and you know, 235 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 4: I I was just heartbroken by the situation. I have 236 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,079 Speaker 4: not felt that it has been handled well, and I 237 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,199 Speaker 4: think Joe Biden particularly has evolved in the past couple 238 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 4: months in his handling of it. But I have to 239 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 4: respect and appreciate when Kamala came into the spotlight once 240 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 4: she came into her own and she has the ability 241 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:30,880 Speaker 4: to make these decisions. Before her rally in Detroit, in Michigan, 242 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 4: where you know, seventy eight percent of the city a 243 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 4: dearborne hundred thousand voters went and voted on commission, she 244 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 4: met with the uncommitted movement before her rally. She's hearing us. Look, 245 00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,000 Speaker 4: I respect to Joe Biden. He wanted done that, he 246 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 4: wanted to have done that, and she is out here, 247 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,080 Speaker 4: she is trying, and you know, Trump is doing the 248 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 4: exact opposite. I think if you want a candidate that 249 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 4: at all values human rights in the Middle East, I 250 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 4: think Kamala is a clear choice because Trump just tried 251 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 4: to nuke the deal by calling them and pressuring Israel, 252 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 4: which is not only extraordinarily illegal but undiplomatic. He's literally 253 00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 4: trying to stop peace from being found. 254 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 2: So Parker, I want to ask you, because you've got 255 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 2: intimate knowledge of the state of Georgia. You're talking about 256 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: those eleven thousand votes, who are the swing? What's like 257 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:16,040 Speaker 2: this swing demographic this time around? Because for us looking in, 258 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: it's really interesting, right because we've got Brian Kemp, a 259 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:23,559 Speaker 2: popular governor Raffensburger survives despite Trump coming in against him. 260 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 2: But clearly there's there's a swingish, there is a Kemp 261 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 2: comed voter out there. 262 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 4: There are talk to me about thousand voters in the 263 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 4: state of Georgia that voted for Brian Kemp and ralfe 264 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 4: Aol Warnock at the same time. 265 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: That's crazy to me. 266 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 4: That is crazy, are they Yeah, they're the wine moms 267 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 4: up in Dunwoodie that I've been canvassing. You know, they're 268 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 4: the soccer moms. They're the voters that aren't really engaged, 269 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 4: or folks that turn out, or folks that don't fill 270 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 4: out their ballad all the way. Okay, you know, it's 271 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:50,599 Speaker 4: very strange how it works. But in twenty twenty that 272 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 4: Canada got the most votes in the Senate runoff wasn't 273 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: also for Warnock. It was the Republican candidate for Public 274 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 4: Service Commissioner, Bubba McDonald. And you know why because the 275 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 4: time name is Lauren Bubba McDonald, and there's a Lauren 276 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:09,079 Speaker 4: Bubba McDonald junior. That's Georgia, that's Georgia Republican. He got 277 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:12,000 Speaker 4: more votes than anybody because Republicans in the state Georgian, 278 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 4: we're not going to go out and vote for you know, 279 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 4: David Perdue and Kelly Loffler, who truly represent elitism in 280 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 4: this country, and they abandoned our state. I mean, they're 281 00:12:20,800 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 4: focused on stock prices instead of Georgia. 282 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 7: Purdue had the greatest ad in political history, it said, 283 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 7: officially exonerated in his ass. Oh what was that incredible messaging? 284 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 2: He was he was accused of generale general I apologize, Yeah, 285 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 2: I get my insider trading. 286 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, especially well, I think this is the perfect 287 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: time for us to take some questions from the chat. 288 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 8: Okay, probably, uh, yeah. 289 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,079 Speaker 3: I just wild Soger is looking for a question for 290 00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:52,440 Speaker 3: the chat. I just want to ask because it seems 291 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 3: to me that there is an element of Kamala Harris 292 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 3: going from arguably actually statistically the most unfavorable vice president 293 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 3: in modern history, to somebody who now has, as we 294 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 3: just talked about, this really legitimate energy around her. 295 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 5: It's real. 296 00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, can you tell us is part of that just 297 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 3: because young people like yourself are so excited that you 298 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 3: don't have to vote for Joe Biden? Is that what's 299 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 3: driving some of the enthusiasm here or is there something 300 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:18,920 Speaker 3: about Kamala. 301 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 4: Harris I don't think it's just that. As I said, 302 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,680 Speaker 4: I think Kamala has made every single right decision since 303 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 4: she stepped in the spotlight. I've been very impressed by 304 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:30,199 Speaker 4: the way she's managing her campaign. But you know, it's 305 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 4: it's not just about Joe Biden. I think the truth 306 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,559 Speaker 4: of it is the fact that he stepped down shows 307 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 4: something in American politics, shows that he was willing to 308 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 4: put himself aside and look for something new, look for 309 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 4: something fresh, and voters respect that, young and old. I 310 00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 4: think everybody is excited. I don't think this is a 311 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 4: sugar high. You know, somebody asked me this question the 312 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 4: other day, and I like to think. You know, we 313 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 4: had to go watch Joe Biden go up there and 314 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 4: not be able to talk to Donald Trump on abortion right. 315 00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:57,199 Speaker 7: So one question, how do we ask questions? But yeah, 316 00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:58,200 Speaker 7: tell people how to do that. 317 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: We are taking our questions from our locals premium subscribers. 318 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 2: Of course, we do have that promotion going on right 319 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 2: now for one month free trial Breakingpoints dot Com DNC 320 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 2: free is the promo code.

I worked hard with my 327 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 4: public policy degree, but I got interested in it at 328 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 4: a young age because I lost my dad. Yeah, you know, 329 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 4: he was in the labor union that kept my family 330 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 4: out of debt. I knew what social security was because 331 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 4: the survivors social security third Wednesday of every month, that's 332 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,000 Speaker 4: when we could go to the grocery store. And not 333 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 4: everybody has that lived experience of like knowing what the 334 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 4: impact of public policy in your community. But you know what, 335 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 4: I know, everybody drives around in their city and see 336 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,480 Speaker 4: something they don't like, see something that's inefficient. My favorite 337 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 4: saying is my grandpa said this on his deathbed. The 338 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:55,359 Speaker 4: nurse asked him, are you allergic to anything?

I want RFK, 497 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 2: but maybe in another position. What do you think? Emily? 498 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: A lot of controversy about the RFK thing. We talked 499 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 2: about it yesterday. I called Shanahan. Some RFK people are 500 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,479 Speaker 2: really upset. Some people are supportive of the move. They're like, hey, 501 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 2: screw the Democrats.

Kennedy Junior is getting confirmed by 506 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 3: the Senate. I mean, it's whether it's Trump or Harris, 507 00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 3: which it wouldn't be Harris, So the likeliest case is 508 00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 3: that it would be a Trump administration. You cannot get 509 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 3: RFK Junior confirmed by the Senate for any position, and 510 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 3: Ryan suggested, well, he could be a bizarre not a 511 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 3: cabinet level official. I could potentially see that happening. They 512 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 3: seem to be making a lot of overtures behind the scenes, 513 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 3: even though they're not admitting to it in front of 514 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 3: the scenes. But then that's another question as to whether 515 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 3: he wants to keep his powder dry to potentially run 516 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,800 Speaker 3: against Trump again. Because we had that conversation yesterday about 517 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 3: how being against Trump was absolutely fundamental central to RFK 518 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 3: Junior's appeal. He had to be against Trump, and he 519 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 3: had to be against Biden. Now he has to be 520 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,719 Speaker 3: against Trump and he has to be against Harris. So 521 00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 3: if you then go into a Trump administration, do you 522 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,360 Speaker 3: ruin your ability to have another successful third party bid? 523 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 10: Right? 524 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 7: Because you think, Yeah, because Vivek took the I'm Vivike, sorry, 525 00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 7: Vivic took the I'm running to support Trump as far 526 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 7: as you could go. Yeah, because and even even Trump 527 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 7: started making fun of him for it, saying like, you're 528 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 7: running against me, How is that supporting me? I don't 529 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,880 Speaker 7: I don't understand these words that you are saying, because 530 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,159 Speaker 7: it's in conflict with what you are actually doing. But 531 00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 7: it worked for him. He'll probably get a cabin administration 532 00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 7: or something. He'll get something, Yeah, he definitely will, or 533 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 7: he'll get out of Ohio, I mean run or a. 534 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,960 Speaker 2: Couple of minds like this. To be honest, I do 535 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 2: think it is a bit of a betrayal from R 536 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 2: because the campaign was explicitly about the double hater voter, 537 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 2: the RFK junior. Justification people I've seen is like, well, 538 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 2: the Democrats like did everything they could to keep him 539 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 2: out of the race. And it's like, yeah, that's definitely true. 540 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 2: It's true. I mean they literally tried to sue and 541 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 2: get him off of the ballot, absolutely empirically. But that 542 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 2: doesn't mean you also side with the person who you 543 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,120 Speaker 2: said would be a threat to democracy. You know who 544 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:00,680 Speaker 2: you said that. I never team up with who. 545 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 3: And who you said was the swamp. 546 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:06,840 Speaker 2: More importantly is that he has such an opportunity. Is like, 547 00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 2: as Nicole clearly lays out, when you hit five percent threshold, 548 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 2: you get public funds, ballot access, you create a movement 549 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,479 Speaker 2: around that. If we think back to John F. Kennedy 550 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 2: and the best of the Kennedy family, what they were 551 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:21,120 Speaker 2: able to do, it was to actually reform an entire 552 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 2: new Democratic Party, create a new coalition, and effectively create 553 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 2: the party in their own image, even taking over with 554 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,320 Speaker 2: the legacy of Lynnon B. Johnson and effectively running the 555 00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 2: party from nineteen sixty up until really nineteen seventies. Right, 556 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 2: if we can think about all the people that were 557 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 2: within them, that was the project that I thought he 558 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,640 Speaker 2: was trying to embark on. Whereas now if he does 559 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: drop out and he endorses Trump, it's very difficult to 560 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 2: even validate yourself, Ryan with any of those crossover Democratic 561 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 2: voters that they previously could have had, because they're going 562 00:24:51,880 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 2: to be like, no, you were just a spoiler against 563 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,200 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. Whether that's true or not. I don't think 564 00:24:57,200 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 2: that that does the third party movement any like. It 565 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,880 Speaker 2: doesn't make it look good. It just makes it look 566 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 2: as bargaining chips. And hey, look, I understand how the 567 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 2: world works. I'm a cynical guy. I totally understand that. Said, 568 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 2: I just don't think it's a good look overall, And 569 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: knowing how the Trump world and all that works, why 570 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 2: would you believe anything he promises you? You know, it's 571 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,719 Speaker 2: not even You're never going to get appointed to anything 572 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 2: of any consequence. If you work for Trump, by the way, 573 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 2: as in the executive branch, you get fire your ass 574 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 2: anytime he wants, So it's not all that easy. And 575 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 2: you know he's won. Rfk's won what leaked phone call 576 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 2: away from just getting fired for no reason. So then 577 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 2: you kind of gave up everything for you kind of 578 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 2: gave up everything without getting anything back. That's just my opinion, right, And. 579 00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 7: To have rfk's vice presidential nominee out there saying we 580 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 7: think we're taking votes away from Trump. We think that's 581 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 7: a bad thing, and we're worried that we will harm 582 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 7: Trump's chances of becoming president just completely changes everything that 583 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 7: everybody thought was happening in that race. 584 00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 2: Right, rights of the kid. That's not why people supported RFK. 585 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 2: It's one at least in my opinion. 586 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 3: No, you're right, and it's one of Trump's biggest vulnerabilities 587 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 3: is what rf K Junior was tapping into. And it 588 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:11,199 Speaker 3: was kind of beautiful to behold at first, right that 589 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 3: he was Donald Trump taps what Rex Tillerson to be 590 00:26:14,280 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 3: your Secretary of State. You want to drain the swamp, 591 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 3: and you bring in the CEO of Exxon Mobile like 592 00:26:19,520 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 3: exactly Trump has tons of those problems. Ryan has reported 593 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 3: on things that rf K Junior should be talking about, 594 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 3: like Farah controversies and other like genuine financial conflicts Jared Kushner. 595 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 3: These are all ripe for hitting someone who claims to 596 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 3: be draining the swamp on and rf K Junior has 597 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 3: seemed personally to actually want to have a good relationship 598 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 3: with Donald Trump, and not in the sense that like 599 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,359 Speaker 3: I'm just you know, hitting you on policy, but we 600 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 3: can be friends, but in an actual like, well maybe 601 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 3: there's something we could do together. 602 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 7: And the bear thing just had to kill him, the 603 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 7: bear That was very crazy. It was that was just you're, like, 604 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 7: my god, what was going on with this dude? The 605 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 7: dog thing followed by the bear. 606 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 3: Thing, probably because I also think this is another important 607 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 3: point about RFK Junior is he felt like he was 608 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 3: putting a respectable like vaccine conversation aside. He is a Kennedy, 609 00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:15,240 Speaker 3: He looks like a Kennedy, he dresses like a Kennedy, 610 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 3: he has Kennedy vibes, Kennedy aesthetics, and so there's enormy 611 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,919 Speaker 3: credibility that he brings to the third party conversation that 612 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 3: literally nobody else has in decade. 613 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 2: That's how I was decided about his cannasy. Yes, and 614 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 2: this is going to be the most impactful third party 615 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 2: candidate in a generation since, I mean the last time 616 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 2: a real third party candidate was the year I was 617 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 2: born nineteen ninety two, Ross Perot, So it's been almost 618 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 2: thirty yeah, thirty two years, and something like that happened. 619 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 2: He had a real chance, and I actually thought he 620 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 2: could have put us on the road to breaking, you know, 621 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 2: creating something new, let's say ten twenty years from now. 622 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,119 Speaker 2: But if that's not what he's interested in, then frankly, 623 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 2: it's going to set us back quite a bit in 624 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: terms of anybody who really does want to see that happening. 625 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 2: But one of the main recaps is that we had 626 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: the DNC roll call. Then we had Kamala at the 627 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 2: the separate rally in Milwaukee. Actually, why don't we talk 628 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 2: about that, because I was actually pretty crazy kama Is 629 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 2: literally at a separate rally in Milwaukee. Why don't you 630 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,199 Speaker 2: tell us about the significance of that, Emily, Because there 631 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 2: were some fifteen thousand people in the stadium there at 632 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 2: that time, absolutely astounding that they have some back to 633 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 2: back stadium shots of Chicago and Milwaukee. Milwaukee, Wisconsin, critical 634 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 2: battleground state. 635 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and she was in the Feiser Forum, which is 636 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 3: exactly where the Republican National Convention was held just weeks ago, 637 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 3: and a very significant decision by the Harris campaign to 638 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 3: put her in the Pfiser Forum, which is where you 639 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 3: know when we were doing counterpoints and breaking points about 640 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,920 Speaker 3: a month ago, I was reporting live from there. It's 641 00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 3: pretty big, like you said, it holds fifteen thousand people. 642 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 3: Tim Walls alluded to that directly and said, you know, 643 00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 3: we have lots more energy in here than the other 644 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 3: guy did. I bet the other guy's not going to 645 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,280 Speaker 3: be happy to see this. But when you are able 646 00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 3: to have energy in a city like Milwaukee, it's going 647 00:28:57,000 --> 00:29:00,200 Speaker 3: to be similar to having energy in a place like Philadelphi. 648 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 3: It's gonna be similar to having energy in a place 649 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 3: like what's another Detroit. These urban centers in the Blue 650 00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:10,440 Speaker 3: Wall states, you really need to have enthusiasm. You can't 651 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 3: just have sort of tolerance for the candidate. You need 652 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,760 Speaker 3: to have enthusiasm for the candidate because these are states 653 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:21,080 Speaker 3: where the margins in rural areas and suburbs are going 654 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 3: way further right than Democrats are comfortable with post Obama, 655 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 3: and so you have to balance that out with turnout. 656 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 3: And so Kamala Harris is making a big splash by 657 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 3: being at the Feisser Forum. With that level of enthusiasm 658 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,480 Speaker 3: beaming into the DNC from there, it was a pretty 659 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 3: stunning even just like visually, it was pretty stunning. 660 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 7: Yeah, go ahead, right, we just linger on a funny 661 00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 7: point here. On Monday night, we were told that Democrats 662 00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 7: really desperately wanted to be able to have Joe Biden 663 00:29:47,120 --> 00:29:50,080 Speaker 7: in prime time, but they just couldn't get the logistics 664 00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 7: and the coordination, just couldn't make it happen. It's a 665 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 7: real shame that he couldn't come out until like eleven 666 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 7: thirty or whatever, and then Tuesday night from two different cities. 667 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 7: They can meticulously coordinate the timing interesting huh of the 668 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,719 Speaker 7: roll call and the walls and the Harris speeches, so 669 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 7: that it's all nicely rolled out collectively in prime time. 670 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 3: I think they really know, Okay, they really learned from. 671 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 7: Monday and by Tuesday they had it together. 672 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,280 Speaker 2: At the same desk. You told me that you thought 673 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 2: that it wasn't intentional, No, I did okay, okay, yeah. 674 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,479 Speaker 3: Good goody to confuse us. 675 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's true, that's true.

I am excited. 723 00:32:26,840 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 2: The only clip I've seen is THEO educating Trump about 724 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 2: what it's like to be on coke. And Trump asked 725 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 2: and he's like, so you like it? Huh? He's like 726 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 2: you like the rush? And he's like, oh. Theo's like yeah, man, 727 00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:36,640 Speaker 2: you know. 728 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 3: He was like, it turns you into an owl. 729 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was good. 730 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 3: But what do you say? 731 00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 2: The THEO was like, it's like being on your porch, 732 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 2: like shaking like this. So I do love Theovon, So 733 00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 2: shout out to him and his producer, Nick, who is 734 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 2: also a fan of the show. 735 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,960 Speaker 3: Dude, Oh, Theovan is great and they were doing a 736 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 3: really interesting Theovan is one of the few people who 737 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 3: has I think has enough respect for Donald Trump as 738 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,440 Speaker 3: a human being. I'm not even talking about the politics, 739 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 3: but as a human being to ask him about how 740 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 3: his brother's death affected him, and it actually I think 741 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 3: elicited a lot more interesting perspective into who Donald Trump 742 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 3: is than just about like dozens and dozens and dozens 743 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,720 Speaker 3: and dozens of corporate media interviews have not gotten that 744 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:18,240 Speaker 3: useful of information out of Donald. 745 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:20,840 Speaker 2: Here's a good question for you, a question to Sogrin Emily. 746 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 2: Can you define what you mean when you mentioned the 747 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 2: New Right. Emily is far more sophisticated and explaining this 748 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: than I am. 749 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 3: So I feel like you're like a godfather, and I know, well, yeah, yeah, 750 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 3: but you know what I'm talking about. In that sort 751 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 3: of after Donald Trump was elected, there was a group 752 00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 3: of definitely younger people and some intellectuals and like conservative 753 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 3: academic spaces who said, let's rethink things. And there was 754 00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 3: a lot of resistance to that among like con inc types. 755 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 3: And it's grat explain what that means. It's like the 756 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 3: professional industry of the conservative movement, so the collection of 757 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 3: nonprofits essentially, like you know, at the time it was 758 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 3: Heritage Foundation, and Heritage Foundation has sort of like gotten 759 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 3: on board with the quote unquote New Right project. But 760 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,680 Speaker 3: the national conservatism movement sprang up after that. I remember 761 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 3: you gave me a copy of your Mazzoni's book in 762 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,239 Speaker 3: like twenty seventeen. That's true, I did, what was I 763 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 3: got those virtues of nationalism? Yeah yeah, but like that 764 00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 3: stuff was circulating, it was, it was great, and and 765 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,280 Speaker 3: it congealed into stuff like American Compass and Kevin Roberts 766 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 3: version of the Heritage Foundation. And some of it's good, 767 00:34:29,360 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 3: some of it's bad, but it's it's definitely in flux. 768 00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 3: It's very fluid. It's basically just people who are opposed 769 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,920 Speaker 3: to the old Conservative movement, the old Republican Party. And 770 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,560 Speaker 3: some of that is really solid. Some of that is 771 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 3: really questionable, like really questionable. 772 00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:51,120 Speaker 2: Okay, let's see what else we have in the chat. Oh, 773 00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 2: this is an interesting one from Tawad. Do you think 774 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 2: the convention including a panel on Palestinian rights will be 775 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 2: ignored or will it hurt or help? So? I don't 776 00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:01,200 Speaker 2: know if that panels be confirmed, we're gonna happen to this. 777 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 3: It did happen, Okay. 778 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,280 Speaker 2: Was it on the main stage though, because that's. 779 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 7: No, But that's not how they do that. What they wanted, 780 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 7: was it? So this is how dorky and like ridiculous 781 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 7: kind of conventions are. But what they wanted was it 782 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 7: to be an official part of the d n C schedule, 783 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,320 Speaker 7: which means it comes with the blessing of the party 784 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 7: as a tolerable thing to discuss. Uh, And it was 785 00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 7: Andy Levin and uh, I think four Palestinian uh on 786 00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:34,759 Speaker 7: the Palestinian Americans on the panel, and so it did happen. 787 00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:36,239 Speaker 7: It was one of the most I think it was 788 00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,720 Speaker 7: probably the most widely attended panel of anything. Was Nobody 789 00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 7: goes to these any of the rest of these panels 790 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,720 Speaker 7: for the most part, unless unless it's like your job, 791 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 7: your paycheck depends on you sitting in there, that you're 792 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 7: going to be there. This one was. I wasn't there, 793 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,439 Speaker 7: but this one was apparently packed and full of energy, 794 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 7: et cetera. So, but I'm sure everybody from the outside 795 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 7: is like, you're kidding me a panel, right, Like that's 796 00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 7: that's what that's what you're fighting for here. And we 797 00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 7: talked to the uncommitted delegates yesterday and I said, like, okay, 798 00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 7: your your other demand here is that you want a 799 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:16,239 Speaker 7: Palestinian American speaker from the stage. And they're pushing for 800 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 7: a particular doctor who's been working in Gaza for years 801 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 7: to get up on stage and be able to just 802 00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 7: share what her life has been like inside Gaza. And 803 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 7: I said, okay, if you get that plus this panel, 804 00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 7: does that mean that's it? Like what are you giving 805 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,919 Speaker 7: in return? And they said no, like that's actually, that's 806 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 7: not where the quid pro quo is like the transaction 807 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:38,720 Speaker 7: has to get all the way to like an arms embargo. 808 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:43,719 Speaker 7: So at this so they they too understand that we're 809 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:48,359 Speaker 7: just talking about a panel here and there, but also Palestinians, 810 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 7: Muslim Americans, Arab Americans in general within the Democratic Party 811 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,920 Speaker 7: have spent so many years getting beaten down that to 812 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:59,760 Speaker 7: be able to win a panel from their perspective, it's like, wow, 813 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 7: like we actually got something like it really should show 814 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 7: like how marginalized they are within the party that they're 815 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:12,600 Speaker 7: this excited about that small of a victory. 816 00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 2: Right, all right, good point. We are still waiting a 817 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 2: little bit. We've got to wait for a technical person. 818 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 2: So we're going to continue to take questions here.

Actually that didn't actually pass, by the way. 855 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 2: It's a tradition because the home state of the candidate 856 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,760 Speaker 2: is the one who passes up until the actual moment 857 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 2: that they take the stage that they can put them 858 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 2: over the edge. Mac, give us a little bit of 859 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 2: a taste of what that DNC roll call was, because 860 00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,000 Speaker 2: there was a hell of a lot of energy that 861 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 2: was in the hall at that time. 862 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 3: Let's roll it. 863 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 11: So Democrats and independents, it's time for us to do 864 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 11: the right thing, and that is to elect Kamala Harris 865 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:38,320 Speaker 11: as the next president of the United. 866 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 7: States of America. 867 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:46,479 Speaker 11: California, we probably passed are four hundred and eighty two 868 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:50,280 Speaker 11: votes for the next president, Pabla Harris. 869 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 2: All right, So that's what that was the little bit 870 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,560 Speaker 2: of the roll call. We'll go to the next one, 871 00:39:56,560 --> 00:39:59,479 Speaker 2: I think, because that's actually quite interesting. This was little 872 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:03,759 Speaker 2: John doing the call uh for Georgia. We just had 873 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 2: Parker in the studio, who is a Georgia devilgate. We 874 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:08,640 Speaker 2: should dang, we should have asked him about this. 875 00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,320 Speaker 3: I talked to him about it before, did you. He 876 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 3: said it was like electric. He said they had a 877 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 3: party the night before, and Lafel Warnock was like on 878 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 3: like on a balcony. 879 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:19,399 Speaker 2: What is the real John Georgia connection? Is he from 880 00:40:19,440 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 2: Georgia in Atlanta? Okay? All right, Matt, can we cueue 881 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 2: up a little John please? And let's go ahead and 882 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 2: take a listen. This was a big moment in the hall. 883 00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 6: Georgia. How do you catch your vote? 884 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:38,200 Speaker 3: Where? 885 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:39,000 Speaker 11: Gentlemen? 886 00:40:39,520 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 5: We are here tonight? 887 00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 3: Stop? 888 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:57,800 Speaker 5: I say, turned out for what? Turn in there for copyright? 889 00:40:57,880 --> 00:40:58,160 Speaker 3: Okay? 890 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 2: That was an incredible and that, I mean does highlight 891 00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:05,359 Speaker 2: something Emily's been trying to say. Here for people who 892 00:41:05,360 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 2: are doubting, here's the truth. The energy is big, it's 893 00:41:09,000 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 2: it's here. Emily. You were at the RNC you were 894 00:41:11,520 --> 00:41:13,839 Speaker 2: saying it's a little bit more somber there, obviously because 895 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 2: Trump got shot in the head. But this is Look, 896 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,279 Speaker 2: there's a party atmosphere that we can't deny. And I'm 897 00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,600 Speaker 2: actually glad that we're here on the ground to be 898 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 2: able to see it, to feel it. I mean, we're 899 00:41:24,600 --> 00:41:26,719 Speaker 2: going to talk about how awful of the logistics have been. 900 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,880 Speaker 2: So even though all of these pre credentialed delegates and 901 00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,000 Speaker 2: all these other people are waiting in hours long lines 902 00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 2: of massive pain in the ass, there's all the problems, 903 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 2: they don't mind. They're just sitting there standing line. They're waiting, 904 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 2: and when they get in there, they're fired up. 905 00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 3: I'm ready to go. Well, i'd say I think two 906 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:44,800 Speaker 3: things can be true. Yeah, this is not two thousand 907 00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 3: and eight. Yeah, but this is also very real. 908 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 2: Well, it can't be the most exciting democratic campaign in 909 00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 2: modern he it is not. 910 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 3: And Ryan, I'm curious what you think about this, because 911 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 3: you've actually been to these conventions. I don't think the 912 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:58,440 Speaker 3: energy in the room is two thousand and eight esque. 913 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 3: I also, though, don't think it's fake, which the right 914 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 3: is saying. 915 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 2: And Ryan was at ow eight. 916 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 3: So it is perfect and actually has had a Hispanic 917 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 3: a poll of Hispanic voters that showed the enthusiasm gap 918 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: that existed before Harris took over the top of the 919 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 3: ticket had been closed with just Hispanic voters like entirely 920 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:16,399 Speaker 3: closed between Trump and Harris in terms of Hispanic voter 921 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:21,879 Speaker 3: enthusiasm among Democrats versus Hispanic Republican voters. So obviously even 922 00:42:21,920 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 3: the polling is picking up on just subjectively qualitatively what 923 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 3: we've noticed. So two things can be true. What do 924 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:29,799 Speaker 3: you think about that? It's not O eight but it 925 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 3: is lit. 926 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 7: Two thousand and eight was indeed electric. It had you know, 927 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 7: so it had non cringe celebrities who were like, everybody 928 00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:41,040 Speaker 7: was fired up. Everybody's believing like we might actually like 929 00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:44,399 Speaker 7: prove that we're not the racist country that we thought 930 00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 7: we were going to buy electing Barack Obama as president. 931 00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 7: He gave his acceptance speech in the like Denver Football Stadium, 932 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 7: like just sixty seventy thousand people or more, just blowing. 933 00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,719 Speaker 7: There was no roof, just just crushing it. But what 934 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 7: people forget is that two thousand and eight also had 935 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 7: a very divisive primary against Hillary Clinton, and all over 936 00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 7: Denver and throughout the convention were these groups of mostly 937 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,240 Speaker 7: women who were called pumas. 938 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,360 Speaker 2: Oh I remember which, Yeah, party unity, my ass, Party unity, 939 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:17,799 Speaker 2: my ass. 940 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. 941 00:43:18,239 --> 00:43:22,919 Speaker 7: They were marching through Denver constantly and they were pissed off. 942 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 7: And so there is actual party unity now like you 943 00:43:28,920 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 7: saw AOC and Bernie and like that was big, Like 944 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 7: everybody is together basically with the party established. 945 00:43:36,440 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 2: Let's show a little bit of that. Hey, can we 946 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:39,839 Speaker 2: go ahead and put the next one up there? Mac, 947 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,040 Speaker 2: This is Kamala. We talked about this a little bit earlier, 948 00:43:43,080 --> 00:43:45,319 Speaker 2: but to me, it was very extraordinary and I want 949 00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:47,520 Speaker 2: to make sure whenever we do YouTube clips that people 950 00:43:47,560 --> 00:43:50,200 Speaker 2: can see this. We can see some of this Mac, 951 00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:52,760 Speaker 2: which is that at the same time that the United 952 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 2: Center was filled in Chicago, Kamala Harris is in Milwaukee 953 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 2: fifteen thousand people in the same where they had the 954 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,399 Speaker 2: RNC and then accepts the Democratic Party nomination there from 955 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 2: the stage. We have that queued up. Okay, let's go 956 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:10,720 Speaker 2: ahead and play a little bit of it for the people. 957 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:16,239 Speaker 12: I'm all right too, you're blowing us comic pull, prove. 958 00:44:18,160 --> 00:44:24,560 Speaker 2: Me running dog in truth? What I'm just good. 959 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 6: National Convention. 960 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:29,680 Speaker 5: Well, they just completed their role call. 961 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,799 Speaker 12: And they have nominated Coach Walls and me to be 962 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 12: the next Vice president and President of the United States 963 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 12: of America. 964 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 3: So there you go. 965 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 2: You could see it. Uh, you could see her accept 966 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 2: that nomination. Let's go to the next one, and we're 967 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 2: gonna give people some of the highlights of the other speeches. 968 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:00,120 Speaker 2: Immediately after that, we kind of moved into prime. You 969 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,160 Speaker 2: have a quick comment, does an absolute flex? 970 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, right inside the convention Swing state, blue Wall state. 971 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:09,000 Speaker 3: She beams in this massive crowd, excited crowds. 972 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:11,399 Speaker 5: The comparison clip between the rn C and the DNC if. 973 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:12,359 Speaker 3: We do we oh, yeah, that's right. 974 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 2: Why don't we go ahead and put that up there 975 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 2: on the screen, just to put are some of the 976 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 2: RNC energy versus the d n C energy. You can see. 977 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 2: I mean, frankly, this is probably more reflective of who 978 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 2: gets to be the average delegate to the r n C. 979 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:26,120 Speaker 2: You've just basically got a bunch of boomers and old 980 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,759 Speaker 2: people at the r n C versus well, let's look, 981 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 2: we had Parker here, a. 982 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:30,280 Speaker 3: Lot of Parkers. 983 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:31,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, there's not a lot of Parkers at. 984 00:45:31,719 --> 00:45:32,560 Speaker 3: The at the r n C. 985 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:36,560 Speaker 2: If we're being honest, they're definitely there is YouTubers and streamers. Yeah, 986 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:40,320 Speaker 2: like all those books, but they're not actually the delegates. 987 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 2: So go ahead and roll that for us. 988 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:42,480 Speaker 7: Mac. 989 00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:44,520 Speaker 2: This is courtesy of Morning Joe. I guess I have 990 00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:45,120 Speaker 2: to say that. 991 00:45:45,440 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 13: Commands with the roll, with a call of the roll 992 00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 13: of the states delegates? 993 00:45:51,920 --> 00:46:01,880 Speaker 12: Are you ready, forty delegates. 994 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:25,040 Speaker 13: Dude, you gotta do it, Georgia, fifty nine. 995 00:46:25,160 --> 00:46:33,960 Speaker 3: Delegates get the point. So that's that is some partisan hackery, 996 00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 3: to be fair, because there was a ton of enthusiasm 997 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 3: from a lot of delegates at the RNC, and you 998 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:40,320 Speaker 3: could probably go back and find clips of people wild 999 00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 3: and not of the rn C. But the best description 1000 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:44,080 Speaker 3: I would say is that the RNC is more like 1001 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,560 Speaker 3: a political event, feels more like a political event, whereas 1002 00:46:47,560 --> 00:46:49,760 Speaker 3: the DNC feels more like a Hollywood event. It feels 1003 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 3: like it's a more entertainment event. And uh like the 1004 00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 3: RNC had a feeling of heaviness because Trump had just 1005 00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,360 Speaker 3: been shot in the head, but also it had this 1006 00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,760 Speaker 3: kind of confidence because at that point it was Biden 1007 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 3: versus the guy who had just survived an assassination attempt. 1008 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,919 Speaker 3: So people just felt really that there was a weight 1009 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:09,719 Speaker 3: a gravity to it, and they felt really confident. And 1010 00:47:09,800 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 3: I think you see a lot of confidence with the Dems, 1011 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 3: which is why Kamla flexed and beamed him from Milwaukee. 1012 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:18,600 Speaker 3: But it's also just like this total sugar rush. You 1013 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,280 Speaker 3: know whether it lasts is the big question. 1014 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 7: What was shocking to me about the roll call is 1015 00:47:22,440 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 7: that Democrats did something new. Yeah like that, that's an 1016 00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:30,880 Speaker 7: innovation on the form of the convention. Yeah, well, I 1017 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 7: didn't know you could do something. 1018 00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 3: Induced it for television. 1019 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:35,640 Speaker 2: They wanted to. I mean, they got what they wanted, 1020 00:47:35,640 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 2: which is we're covering it. It's a media moment. It 1021 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 2: was actually produced in order to project energy and dare 1022 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,279 Speaker 2: I say joy, That's a word that we heard a 1023 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,600 Speaker 2: lot last night, and that was a key to basically 1024 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 2: all of the major speeches. Let's go now to Bernie Sanders. 1025 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 2: We have two separate clips that we can show. He 1026 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 2: was given a primetime speaking slot. He used it to 1027 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:01,040 Speaker 2: really push some of his two thousand in sixteen energy. 1028 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 2: But I will say, just going into it, it was 1029 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:06,319 Speaker 2: remarkable to me. I mean, twenty sixteen Bernie Sanders. This 1030 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 2: is a man who basically had the DNC steal the 1031 00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:13,399 Speaker 2: race away from him and rig the primary process, who 1032 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 2: has been at war with his entire life, then ascending 1033 00:48:16,000 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 2: to the main stage in primetime to endorse Kamala Harris. 1034 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,080 Speaker 2: But he did it, I guess in his own way. 1035 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,680 Speaker 2: He gave a nod to some of the ceasefire talk. 1036 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 2: Max got it loaded. Let's take a listen. 1037 00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:27,759 Speaker 7: We must and. 1038 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 14: This horrific war in Gaza, bring home the. 1039 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,920 Speaker 15: Hostages and demand that immediac Saints file. 1040 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:50,840 Speaker 2: All right, So there you go, demanding an immediate ceasefire. 1041 00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:55,400 Speaker 7: He also had a permanent whatever. Yeah, nobody wants to 1042 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:58,799 Speaker 7: hear my nippicking. It's not permanent, it's just immediate, Like 1043 00:48:59,080 --> 00:48:59,719 Speaker 7: he won't like. 1044 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:01,799 Speaker 2: What what we will do is we'll let you get 1045 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 2: some of your energy out of the protest block because 1046 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:06,320 Speaker 2: I know how frustrated you are with the uncommitted movement 1047 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,799 Speaker 2: now so far, let's get the next one up there. 1048 00:49:09,040 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 2: What I want to do is show everybody the contrast 1049 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 2: and truly the big tent that we've seen here at 1050 00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 2: the DNC. Preceding Bernie Sanders is Kennis Chanalt. He's a 1051 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 2: one hundred millionaire former AMEX chairman who's like a Kamala 1052 00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 2: is so great for business, and it's like in America 1053 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,360 Speaker 2: is the best place to start a credit card company 1054 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:28,640 Speaker 2: with legal usury. 1055 00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 3: Then Bernie Sanders. 1056 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:36,319 Speaker 2: Bernie Sanders takes the stage to attack billionaires, which is 1057 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:42,120 Speaker 2: immediately then followed by JB. Pritzker, who starts bragging about 1058 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:46,040 Speaker 2: being an actual billionaire in contrast to Trump. All right, 1059 00:49:46,080 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 2: so Mac, let's take the billionaire clip here from Bernie 1060 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 2: and then quickly will hot switch it to JB. Pritzker 1061 00:49:51,520 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 2: right afterwards, And my friends. 1062 00:49:55,800 --> 00:49:58,960 Speaker 3: At the very top of that to do lists. 1063 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 5: Is the need to get big. 1064 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:15,760 Speaker 15: Money out about political process. Billionaires in both parties should 1065 00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:22,200 Speaker 15: not be able to buy elections, including primary elections. 1066 00:50:22,480 --> 00:50:22,920 Speaker 4: Got it? 1067 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,719 Speaker 2: Okay, let's pull out it out all right, So billionaires 1068 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 2: should not be able to buy elections, including primary erections. 1069 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:31,040 Speaker 3: Oh what did I say that? 1070 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,320 Speaker 7: What was that? Perils? 1071 00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 2: It's the live nude sign that's over. Yeah, that's that's 1072 00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:39,280 Speaker 2: My mind is going in different directions. 1073 00:50:39,600 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 8: Okay. 1074 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:43,680 Speaker 2: So then immediately after that, what happens is that we 1075 00:50:43,800 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 2: have JB. Pritzker, the governor of the state that we're 1076 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 2: in right now, Illinois, who is also an call him 1077 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 2: an air a billionaire air is all right, So an 1078 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 2: heir to a billionaire fortune hasn't even made his own 1079 00:50:56,880 --> 00:51:01,279 Speaker 2: billionaire fortune, and then bragging about being a billionaire in 1080 00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 2: contrast to Donald Trump. So Mac, let's roll it for 1081 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 2: the people. 1082 00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 16: Donald Trump thinks that we should trust him on the 1083 00:51:07,680 --> 00:51:11,160 Speaker 16: economy because he claims to be very rich. 1084 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:13,320 Speaker 5: But take it from. 1085 00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 4: An actual billionaire. 1086 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:25,040 Speaker 8: Trump is rich and only one thing. 1087 00:51:25,600 --> 00:51:31,080 Speaker 2: Stupidity there it is, so take it from an actual billionaire. 1088 00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:33,120 Speaker 2: And I gotta I gotta even give credit to a 1089 00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 2: producer Mac and to producer Griffin, because we were all 1090 00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 2: watching this meet together and he's like, I literally cannot 1091 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,320 Speaker 2: believe that that just happened, right after Bernie Sanders smoke 1092 00:51:41,440 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 2: on a stage and attack a billionaire than having a 1093 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 2: billionaire governor who Okay, nobody becomes a billionaire governor just 1094 00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:49,719 Speaker 2: out of the goodness of their own heart and talent. 1095 00:51:49,840 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 2: Especially I, frankly, I don't get Pritzker energy. I don't 1096 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:55,800 Speaker 2: think he's couldn't. I don't think he's really all that talented. 1097 00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,320 Speaker 2: He's hokey, and he's hokey. 1098 00:51:57,400 --> 00:51:57,880 Speaker 3: Is hell to me. 1099 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,239 Speaker 7: Ryan, I generally like a b He's been an extremely 1100 00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:06,120 Speaker 7: progressive governor in Illinois. That was the worst, most ridiculous 1101 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 7: thing I've ever seen. Yeah, there is a a sect 1102 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:14,720 Speaker 7: of democratic activists who have been making this argument against 1103 00:52:14,719 --> 00:52:16,880 Speaker 7: Trump that he's not a real billionaire, that these are 1104 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 7: the real billionaires for years now, and that I think 1105 00:52:20,880 --> 00:52:23,480 Speaker 7: that energy was channeled through Pritzker there and they loved 1106 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 7: seeing it. I think it's utterly tone deaf, absurd and 1107 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:30,280 Speaker 7: to your you make a great point. Just like Trump 1108 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:33,360 Speaker 7: he inherited, yeah, his money. 1109 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:34,800 Speaker 3: You didn't even do any. 1110 00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 7: It's like a hotel fortune. 1111 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:36,799 Speaker 8: Right. 1112 00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 3: He's using the DNC stage to squash billionaire beefs and 1113 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 3: to engage in billionaire beefing, which is. 1114 00:52:44,239 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 2: Truly, like, that's as bad as politics get, folks. 1115 00:52:48,520 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 3: Nobody wants it. Nobody wants it except for. 1116 00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:53,280 Speaker 2: The you know, but that's the problem. Let's be honest. 1117 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:56,120 Speaker 2: There is a constituency that played there. There is a 1118 00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 2: three hundred and fifty thousand a year income voter in. 1119 00:52:59,640 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 3: Peach Tree, George, it's the county. 1120 00:53:02,280 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 2: Just talking, Parker was just talking about who is like 1121 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:07,440 Speaker 2: he's right, he's not even a real billionaire, just like 1122 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:13,240 Speaker 2: our man GB take it billionaire. But that led to, frankly, 1123 00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:15,680 Speaker 2: you know, some of the nice moments I was saying here, 1124 00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 2: I look, people know, I'm a cynical guy.

She 1173 00:56:16,120 --> 00:56:18,239 Speaker 17: doesn't tolerate any bs. 1174 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:20,799 Speaker 8: You've all seen that look, and you. 1175 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:22,480 Speaker 5: Know that look I'm talking about. 1176 00:56:23,160 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 17: That look is not just the meme.

But you can also 1183 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 7: ask the people wrongfully convicted that have been that can 1184 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:49,879 Speaker 7: basically demonstrate that they were innocent and yet are still 1185 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:50,520 Speaker 7: behind ours. 1186 00:56:50,680 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 2: Justice impacted people, No I'm talking. 1187 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:57,720 Speaker 7: Well, yes, justice, justice impacted innocent people who Kamala Harris 1188 00:56:59,120 --> 00:57:01,800 Speaker 7: kept in prison with paperwork arguments. 1189 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:05,240 Speaker 2: But that's very inconvenient to weed truancy. 1190 00:57:05,760 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 7: Yes, I mean it's also inconvenient from the Trumps. I 1191 00:57:07,880 --> 00:57:09,560 Speaker 7: they don't know quite how to handle it because she's 1192 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:11,719 Speaker 7: soft on crime or she's too tough on crime. But 1193 00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:15,440 Speaker 7: she there are plenty of innocent people that are obviously 1194 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,680 Speaker 7: innocent that that Harris worked to keep behind bars, not 1195 00:57:18,800 --> 00:57:21,960 Speaker 7: saying that she thinks they're guilty. But you didn't file 1196 00:57:22,160 --> 00:57:26,320 Speaker 7: your uh your lousy attorney filing soon enough or you 1197 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 7: didn't do you know, you you missed this deadline, so 1198 00:57:28,560 --> 00:57:31,280 Speaker 7: therefore you should rotten in prison. So yeah, she joyfully 1199 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:32,040 Speaker 7: fights those people. 1200 00:57:32,080 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 3: So Sucker's right, though, like em Hooff understood the assignment. Yeah, 1201 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,160 Speaker 3: that was it doesn't like the job. It might work 1202 00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:39,560 Speaker 3: on Sager and Crystal, which it seemed to it doesn't 1203 00:57:39,560 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 3: really do it for me, but he did a good 1204 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:42,120 Speaker 3: job of doing what. 1205 00:57:42,200 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 2: It's because you and I are online, Okay, you and 1206 00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:46,480 Speaker 2: I can separate both my analyst hat and then being 1207 00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:48,320 Speaker 2: the guy who also knows that this guy knocked up 1208 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,200 Speaker 2: his nanny, which is gross, right yay, immediately following him 1209 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:54,960 Speaker 2: corpor lawyer and all that. But look, people don't want 1210 00:57:55,000 --> 00:57:57,320 Speaker 2: to hear that. And also look, spouse, it's a fair 1211 00:57:57,400 --> 00:58:00,480 Speaker 2: game ish like et cetera. It does tell us a 1212 00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 2: little bit about kind of like who these people are underneath. 1213 00:58:03,560 --> 00:58:05,720 Speaker 2: But I've also been around enough politicians like these are 1214 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 2: messy ass people, listen, screwed up their egomaniac accident. I'm 1215 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,400 Speaker 2: not going to have normal They're not gonna have normal lives. 1216 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:11,600 Speaker 6: No. 1217 00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 3: Kamala Harris, by the way, has one of the highest 1218 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 3: rates of like one of the lowest rates of staff 1219 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,360 Speaker 3: retention when she was in the Senate. She said the 1220 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 3: same thing happened when she was vice president. So when 1221 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:21,920 Speaker 3: Doug Emoff was talking about how tough Kamala Harris is, 1222 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 3: that she's not just joyful, she's also very much the warrior. 1223 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 3: There is another side to Kamala Harris that has as 1224 00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 3: she's been establishing herself the last few weeks, it has 1225 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:34,960 Speaker 3: been incredibly successful from a pr standpoint, heavy assist from 1226 00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 3: the media, but it's working so far. 1227 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 2: In fact, usually whenever they're like a sweetheart publicly, that 1228 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 2: means they are mean as hell behind the scenes. I've 1229 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 2: read some of the I have read, yeah, not just Klobachar. 1230 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 2: I've read some incredible stories about like Bill Clinton and 1231 00:58:50,800 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 2: his low Yes, I've heard those like all these guys, 1232 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:57,120 Speaker 2: wait for the stories about Harris Harris, all these other people. 1233 00:58:57,160 --> 00:58:58,800 Speaker 2: The way it's been explained to me is that they 1234 00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 2: have to project niceness to the entire outside world, and 1235 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 2: the only outlet that they have is on their staff, 1236 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:09,560 Speaker 2: and so Joe's staff is just they sit there and 1237 00:59:09,640 --> 00:59:14,400 Speaker 2: they have to take a beating. Let's go ahead and 1238 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 2: move to the Obama section. So obviously this was critical. 1239 00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 2: This was the big flagship moment. We had two major 1240 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:24,080 Speaker 2: speeches from Michelle Obama and Barack Obama, and I think 1241 00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:28,280 Speaker 2: that there were two primary There were two primary instructions 1242 00:59:28,320 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 2: to the Obamas. For Michelle, first, and most noteworthy to me, 1243 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:35,320 Speaker 2: she didn't mention Joe Biden's name one time. It was 1244 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 2: all about Kamala Harris. But more importantly, there were a 1245 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 2: lot of subtle digs at Biden. She talked about this 1246 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 2: sickness inside of her that existed while Joe Biden was 1247 00:59:44,160 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 2: a candidate, and then how joyful she felt. There was 1248 00:59:47,160 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 2: also the hope is making a comeback. So there was 1249 00:59:50,800 --> 00:59:53,880 Speaker 2: a lot of writing the nostalgia way and trying to 1250 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 2: get the Democratic base in prime for two things. Number 1251 00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 2: one literally fired up and ready to go, which Obama 1252 00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 2: gave it that signature line. But two is don't lose hope. 1253 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:05,240 Speaker 2: Every single day matters. You need to get out there, 1254 01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:07,080 Speaker 2: You needs to door knock. This is going to be 1255 01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:09,960 Speaker 2: a tight race. Don't get complacent. So it was the 1256 01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,760 Speaker 2: that was like the primary message Michelle. Also one of 1257 01:00:13,760 --> 01:00:16,120 Speaker 2: the instructions clearly that was given to her was we 1258 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:18,360 Speaker 2: need to nip a lot of this democratic infighting in 1259 01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:20,880 Speaker 2: the bud and everybody needs to get with the program 1260 01:00:21,120 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 2: and get with the program right now. So let's go ahead, 1261 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 2: Mac and let's cueue up. Michelle Obama, hope is making 1262 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,800 Speaker 2: a comeback. That's probably the biggest one of the bigger 1263 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 2: lines that she had that night. We'll play some of 1264 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 2: the others, but let's hear this first one. 1265 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:39,400 Speaker 12: Something wonderfully magical is in the air, isn't it. Yeah, 1266 01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:44,320 Speaker 12: you know, we're feeling it here in this arena, but 1267 01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:49,200 Speaker 12: it's spreading all across this country. We love a familiar 1268 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:53,480 Speaker 12: feeling that's been buried too deep for far too long. 1269 01:00:55,240 --> 01:00:56,600 Speaker 3: You know what I'm talking about. 1270 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:10,840 Speaker 12: It's the contagious power of hope, the anticipation, the energy, 1271 01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 12: the exhilaration of once again being on the cusp of 1272 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:21,520 Speaker 12: a brighter day, the chance to vanquish the demons of fear, 1273 01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:27,520 Speaker 12: division and hate that have consumed us and continue pursuing 1274 01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:32,240 Speaker 12: the unfinished promise of this great nation, the dream that 1275 01:01:32,360 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 12: our parents and grandparents fought and died and sacrificed for America. 1276 01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:41,880 Speaker 3: Hope is making a comeback. 1277 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 2: All right, let's pull out of that, Max. So obviously 1278 01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 2: that was a big Rudeeah, go ahead, quick comment. 1279 01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 7: One point on that. A lot of people in the 1280 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:52,479 Speaker 7: Democratic Coalition felt hope in twenty fifteen, again in twenty 1281 01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 7: nineteen when Bernie Sanders was running for president on a 1282 01:01:56,880 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 7: pledge to remake the country more hopeful, just direction running 1283 01:02:01,960 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 7: for something. If you notice there, what was the hope there? 1284 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,200 Speaker 7: No Trump that she would vanquish the evil spirits? Yes, 1285 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 7: the des Yes. And that's that's how you unite the 1286 01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:17,160 Speaker 7: Democratic Party, not in in something forward looking of what 1287 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:21,200 Speaker 7: we're going to do, but in who we're going to beat. 1288 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 2: This was the key thing. Actually, to me, the most 1289 01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 2: important lines from the Obamas both of their speeches was 1290 01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:30,880 Speaker 2: tone policing the Democratic Coalition. So mac, let's cueue up 1291 01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:34,880 Speaker 2: the next one. This is Michelle Obama on the dissenters. 1292 01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:39,160 Speaker 2: And uh, here we have her basically saying, mostly to 1293 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:42,320 Speaker 2: the Gaza protesters, like, hey, guys, let's nip this into 1294 01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:46,840 Speaker 2: the bud. We're all coming together. It's unity time. If 1295 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 2: you don't get with the program. Then you're basically helping 1296 01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 2: Donald Trump. Go ahead, Mac, let's take a listen. Let's 1297 01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:56,640 Speaker 2: get specifically to this quote about the worst enemies and 1298 01:02:56,680 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 2: all of that. 1299 01:02:57,040 --> 01:03:03,080 Speaker 12: So go ahead, as we embrace this renewed sense of hope, 1300 01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:08,400 Speaker 12: let us not forget the despair we have felt. Let 1301 01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:12,400 Speaker 12: us not forget what we are up against. Yes, Kamala 1302 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:15,240 Speaker 12: and Tim are doing great now, we're loving it. They're 1303 01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:17,120 Speaker 12: packing arenas across the country. 1304 01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:19,680 Speaker 3: Folks are energized. We are feeling good. 1305 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:26,840 Speaker 12: But remember there are still so many people who are 1306 01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,920 Speaker 12: desperate for a different outcome, who are ready to question 1307 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:35,400 Speaker 12: and criticize every move Kamala makes, who are eager to 1308 01:03:35,560 --> 01:03:39,000 Speaker 12: spread those lines, who don't want to vote for a 1309 01:03:39,040 --> 01:03:43,840 Speaker 12: woman who will continue to prioritize building their wealth over 1310 01:03:43,960 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 12: ensuring that everyone has enough. So, no matter how good 1311 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 12: we feel tonight or tomorrow or the next day, this 1312 01:03:53,880 --> 01:03:58,800 Speaker 12: is going to be an uphill battle. So, folks, we 1313 01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:00,080 Speaker 12: cannot be our. 1314 01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 3: Our own worst enemies. 1315 01:04:02,800 --> 01:04:09,040 Speaker 12: No, see, because the minute something goes wrong, the minute 1316 01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:12,960 Speaker 12: alive takes whole. Folks, we cannot start wringing our hands. 1317 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 12: We cannot get a Goldilocks complex about whether everything is 1318 01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:29,480 Speaker 12: just right, and we cannot indulge our anxieties about whether 1319 01:04:29,560 --> 01:04:33,760 Speaker 12: this country will let somewhat like Kamala instead of doing 1320 01:04:33,840 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 12: everything we can to get someone like Kamala elected. 1321 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:43,480 Speaker 2: So that was the key moment that Ryan the Goldilocks complex. 1322 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:48,600 Speaker 2: We can't be bogged down in some of this protest nonsense. 1323 01:04:49,400 --> 01:04:54,160 Speaker 2: Not everything can be just right. We cannot indulge our anxieties. 1324 01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:57,400 Speaker 2: I thought that was really really interesting for Michelle because 1325 01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:01,320 Speaker 2: we combine effectively the family her and Nancy Pelosi the 1326 01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:04,160 Speaker 2: most responsible for getting Biden out of the race. Clearly, 1327 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,520 Speaker 2: she has massive resentment against Joe Biden. She didn't even 1328 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:08,560 Speaker 2: mention his name one time, didn't think him was nothing, 1329 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 2: implied that he made her physically ill to her stomach 1330 01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:16,360 Speaker 2: while he was in office, and then at the same 1331 01:05:16,400 --> 01:05:19,360 Speaker 2: time doing the tone policing that Obama picks up on 1332 01:05:19,600 --> 01:05:22,200 Speaker 2: in his speech. Go ahead, Ryan, what'd you make of that? Yeah? 1333 01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:24,600 Speaker 7: I also thought it was aimed a little bit at 1334 01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:29,760 Speaker 7: people who spent the first you know, several weeks saying like, hey, 1335 01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 7: by the way, what are you gonna run on? Yeah, 1336 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:32,680 Speaker 7: what are your policies? 1337 01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:34,600 Speaker 2: You're gonna name's not Trump? 1338 01:05:35,040 --> 01:05:38,720 Speaker 7: What are you gonna do if you win. And then 1339 01:05:38,840 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 7: when the policies do come out, there's some nitpicking at 1340 01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:42,680 Speaker 7: them here and there. She's saying like, don't just don't 1341 01:05:42,680 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 7: do that, like, don't worry about it. We're runing against Trump. 1342 01:05:44,760 --> 01:05:48,440 Speaker 7: He's bad. It's not gonna be a perfect campaign. And 1343 01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 7: Y know that I understand that argument, sure, and most 1344 01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:53,640 Speaker 7: Democrats are like, yeah, actually. 1345 01:05:53,480 --> 01:05:55,280 Speaker 2: Well did you hear the pop when she said that? 1346 01:05:55,880 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 2: Because clearly, as you and I know, and we'll get 1347 01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:00,320 Speaker 2: to the protesters and all that, they're not all that 1348 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:03,520 Speaker 2: welcome there at the DNC, right, I'm seeing any time 1349 01:06:03,600 --> 01:06:05,960 Speaker 2: I see anyone wearing a kafia or anything, there's a 1350 01:06:05,960 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 2: lot of side eye. And I noticed also when we 1351 01:06:08,000 --> 01:06:10,680 Speaker 2: were interviewing some of the uncommitted delegates and others that 1352 01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:12,640 Speaker 2: there was a people were beefing. Is the way I 1353 01:06:12,640 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 2: would put it to them? Their their presence is not welcome. 1354 01:06:15,640 --> 01:06:17,160 Speaker 7: What's the way I would put it. What's interesting is 1355 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,120 Speaker 7: that the policy they support, yeah, is very welcome, like 1356 01:06:20,400 --> 01:06:24,760 Speaker 7: whenever anybody but Warnock. But when Warnock or Sanders or 1357 01:06:24,800 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 7: AOC mentions Gaza like, the crowd is like with them. 1358 01:06:28,840 --> 01:06:31,959 Speaker 7: And if you poll Democrats, they want a permanency's fire. 1359 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,760 Speaker 7: Like they are. They want this war, they want this 1360 01:06:34,840 --> 01:06:38,400 Speaker 7: attack on Gaza to end now. But you're right that 1361 01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:42,920 Speaker 7: the individuals who are pushing and making things uncomfortable for 1362 01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:44,840 Speaker 7: them internally, they'd be like, can you can you tone 1363 01:06:44,840 --> 01:06:45,200 Speaker 7: it down. 1364 01:06:45,040 --> 01:06:45,560 Speaker 3: A little bit? 1365 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:48,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're exactly right. Okay, let's go. I think we 1366 01:06:48,080 --> 01:06:50,480 Speaker 2: have a final Michelle Obama clip. This is probably her 1367 01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:53,320 Speaker 2: biggest moment of the night, making fun of Trump for 1368 01:06:53,400 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 2: saying black jobs during his National Association of Black Journalists 1369 01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:00,480 Speaker 2: appearance recently, Mac why don't we go aheading? Cue up 1370 01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,520 Speaker 2: the next one. Here's Michelle with the biggest line of 1371 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:03,800 Speaker 2: the night. 1372 01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:05,360 Speaker 3: We know what comes next. 1373 01:07:06,640 --> 01:07:09,440 Speaker 12: We know folks are gonna do everything they can to 1374 01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:14,280 Speaker 12: distort her truth. My husband and I sadly know a 1375 01:07:14,320 --> 01:07:21,200 Speaker 12: little something about this. For years, Donald Trump did everything 1376 01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 12: in his power to try to make people fear us. 1377 01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:28,480 Speaker 3: See his limited, narrow. 1378 01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:31,520 Speaker 12: View of the world made him feel threatened by the 1379 01:07:31,560 --> 01:07:35,320 Speaker 12: existence of two hard work and highly educated, successful people 1380 01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 12: who happened to be black. 1381 01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 3: Wait, I want to know. 1382 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:56,520 Speaker 18: I want to know. 1383 01:07:57,560 --> 01:08:00,840 Speaker 12: Who's gonna tell him, Who's gonna tell that the job 1384 01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:03,440 Speaker 12: he's currently seeking might just be one of those. 1385 01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 2: Black jobs oo biggest line of the night, So I 1386 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 2: think that was pretty significant. This was Michelle, from all 1387 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 2: accounts inside the hall, was much actually better received than Obama. 1388 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:17,439 Speaker 2: Part of the reason that we led with her. She 1389 01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:20,840 Speaker 2: there's still so much energy around her. Obviously as a 1390 01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:24,880 Speaker 2: potential candidate, she clearly has no zero interest. But any 1391 01:08:24,920 --> 01:08:26,760 Speaker 2: last thoughts on Michelle Obama. 1392 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:30,400 Speaker 7: The number of people throughout American history who could waltz 1393 01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 7: into the White House if they want it, but decide 1394 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:35,759 Speaker 7: not to do it, you can probably count on one hand. 1395 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 7: Like she could have finished her speech last night by saying, actually, 1396 01:08:40,479 --> 01:08:43,480 Speaker 7: you know what, it's me, I think I want the nomination. 1397 01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:47,760 Speaker 7: The place would have just absolutely erupted. They would have 1398 01:08:47,800 --> 01:08:51,639 Speaker 7: marched to Milwaukee and told Kamalairah was like, I'm sorry, 1399 01:08:52,320 --> 01:08:55,439 Speaker 7: thank you very much, thank you, Kamala, thank you, Kama, 1400 01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:59,160 Speaker 7: thank you, thank you Kama. But it's going to be Michelle. Yeah, 1401 01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 7: she could have seized it, like in the moment, they 1402 01:09:00,920 --> 01:09:02,680 Speaker 7: would have figured out a procedural. 1403 01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:03,200 Speaker 3: Way to make it right. 1404 01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:05,960 Speaker 7: Things happen. Yeah, Yet she doesn't want it. It's it's 1405 01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:11,000 Speaker 7: it's truly like not in this political world that like 1406 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:13,639 Speaker 7: resistance to that poll. 1407 01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:15,839 Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and move on to President Obama. 1408 01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:17,080 Speaker 3: He took the stage. 1409 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:20,640 Speaker 2: It was a pretty long speech, actually well, and he 1410 01:09:20,720 --> 01:09:23,120 Speaker 2: tried again to resurrect some of the hits. So here 1411 01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:25,840 Speaker 2: we have yes she can that he tried to get 1412 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:28,720 Speaker 2: going as a chant inside of the hall. Let's take 1413 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:29,120 Speaker 2: a listen. 1414 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,639 Speaker 19: College shouldn't be the only ticket to the middle class. 1415 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,439 Speaker 19: We need to follow the lead of governors like Tim 1416 01:09:37,439 --> 01:09:40,719 Speaker 19: Wallas who said, if you've got the skills and the drive, 1417 01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 19: you shouldn't need a degree to work for state government. 1418 01:09:45,920 --> 01:09:51,000 Speaker 19: And in this new economy, we need a president who 1419 01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:55,400 Speaker 19: actually cares about the millions of people all across this 1420 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:59,959 Speaker 19: country who wake up every single day to do the essential, 1421 01:10:00,680 --> 01:10:05,439 Speaker 19: often thankless work to care for our sick, to clean 1422 01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:07,840 Speaker 19: our streets, to deliver our packages. 1423 01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:08,800 Speaker 18: We need a. 1424 01:10:08,760 --> 01:10:12,439 Speaker 19: President who will stand up for their right to bargain 1425 01:10:12,479 --> 01:10:13,120 Speaker 19: for better. 1426 01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:18,400 Speaker 20: Wages and working conditions. And Comuda will be that president. 1427 01:10:28,360 --> 01:10:42,320 Speaker 20: Yes she can, Yes she can't. 1428 01:10:44,800 --> 01:10:46,800 Speaker 2: All right, fired up and ready to go. He gave 1429 01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:50,680 Speaker 2: us all of the absolute classics. Yes she can. There 1430 01:10:50,760 --> 01:10:54,479 Speaker 2: was also a big moment here on crowd sizes. I'll 1431 01:10:54,560 --> 01:10:58,320 Speaker 2: let everybody decide what Obama was talking about in terms 1432 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:02,480 Speaker 2: of size for yourself. Probably not family friendly for the stream, 1433 01:11:02,760 --> 01:11:05,479 Speaker 2: but let's go ahead and queue this up. Mac. Let's 1434 01:11:05,479 --> 01:11:09,440 Speaker 2: get the sot of President Obama talking about Trump's obsession 1435 01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:10,519 Speaker 2: with crowd sizes. 1436 01:11:11,479 --> 01:11:19,040 Speaker 19: There's the childish nicknames, the crazy conspiracy theories, this weird 1437 01:11:19,080 --> 01:11:20,639 Speaker 19: obsession with crowd sizes. 1438 01:11:26,000 --> 01:11:28,400 Speaker 2: That was absolutely his biggest line in the night. That 1439 01:11:28,479 --> 01:11:29,200 Speaker 2: was his line. 1440 01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:33,800 Speaker 3: So good, he's good at the roast, He's great. It 1441 01:11:33,840 --> 01:11:34,519 Speaker 3: was crowd work. 1442 01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 2: I mean, he's good with the crowd. Look, he's one 1443 01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:39,760 Speaker 2: of the most generational, you know, probably the best generational. 1444 01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:42,160 Speaker 2: He was a politician in modern American history. 1445 01:11:42,200 --> 01:11:45,479 Speaker 7: He was right though that anybody's following Michelle is stupid. 1446 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:46,719 Speaker 7: He was. He was flat. 1447 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't think he actually, Oh, I don't think 1448 01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 2: we have that line about the leaf blower. Yeah, I 1449 01:11:51,520 --> 01:11:53,240 Speaker 2: don't don't think we can find it on Twitter. We 1450 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:55,080 Speaker 2: could probably find it. But can you go ahead and 1451 01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:57,120 Speaker 2: search for that leaf blower thing while I'm talking? 1452 01:11:57,360 --> 01:12:00,720 Speaker 7: But yes, this is an old rich man, yeah, being 1453 01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:01,240 Speaker 7: out of touch. 1454 01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.

Now, from a neighbor, that's exhausting. 1477 01:13:10,080 --> 01:13:15,120 Speaker 19: From a president, it's just dangerous, all. 1478 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:16,799 Speaker 3: Right, let's pull out of that. I thought it was awful. 1479 01:13:17,160 --> 01:13:20,519 Speaker 7: It was very and you know, in the second at all, 1480 01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:22,760 Speaker 7: he's like, he's like, oh that didn't. 1481 01:13:22,320 --> 01:13:25,439 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, you can tell, you know anyway, And he's. 1482 01:13:25,320 --> 01:13:27,560 Speaker 7: So mad at whatever billionaire.

Finally, the last clip 1489 01:13:41,600 --> 01:13:45,439 Speaker 2: of Obama. This again pairs very well with Michelle. The 1490 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:50,000 Speaker 2: most important part here is Obama trying to tone police democrats. 1491 01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 2: Stop being so preachy. We need to win people over. 1492 01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:59,400 Speaker 2: No more language nonsense, lots of anti cancel culture stuff here. 1493 01:13:59,479 --> 01:14:02,720 Speaker 2: So let's hear it from the from Obama. This was 1494 01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:05,479 Speaker 2: a Honestly, this is one of the biggest sections of 1495 01:14:05,479 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 2: his speech, and he saved it to the end and 1496 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:09,559 Speaker 2: he was speaking very directly at the audience here. So 1497 01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:11,680 Speaker 2: let's take a listen to Professor Obama. 1498 01:14:11,920 --> 01:14:16,520 Speaker 19: Isn't just a bunch of abstract principles and dusty laws 1499 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:17,639 Speaker 19: in some books somewhere. 1500 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:21,680 Speaker 4: It's the values we live by. 1501 01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:26,000 Speaker 19: It's the way we treat each other, including those who 1502 01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 19: don't look like us, or pray like us, or see 1503 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:44,280 Speaker 19: the world exactly like we do. That sense of mutual 1504 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:50,280 Speaker 19: respect has to be part of our message. Our politics 1505 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 19: have become so polarized these days that all of us 1506 01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:58,920 Speaker 19: across the political spectrum seems so quick to assume the 1507 01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:02,040 Speaker 19: worst in others unless they agree with us on every 1508 01:15:02,040 --> 01:15:06,680 Speaker 19: single issue. We start thinking that the only way to 1509 01:15:06,720 --> 01:15:09,320 Speaker 19: win is to scold and shame and out yell the 1510 01:15:09,360 --> 01:15:13,879 Speaker 19: other side, and after a while, regular folks just tune out. 1511 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:19,120 Speaker 5: Or they don't bother to vote. 1512 01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:22,760 Speaker 19: Now, that approach may work for the politicians who just 1513 01:15:22,800 --> 01:15:23,720 Speaker 19: want attention. 1514 01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:29,519 Speaker 20: And thrive on division, but it won't work for us. 1515 01:15:31,160 --> 01:15:34,800 Speaker 19: To make progress on the things we care about, the 1516 01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:37,240 Speaker 19: things that really affect people's lives. 1517 01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:42,200 Speaker 20: We need to remember that we've all got. 1518 01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:47,320 Speaker 19: Our blind spots and contradictions and prejudices, and that if 1519 01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:50,360 Speaker 19: we want to win over those who aren't yet ready 1520 01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:54,640 Speaker 19: to support our candidates, we need to listen to their concerns. 1521 01:15:55,400 --> 01:16:04,760 Speaker 20: And maybe learn something in the process. After all, if a. 1522 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:10,360 Speaker 19: Parent or grandparent occasionally says something that makes us cringe. 1523 01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:17,120 Speaker 19: We don't automatically assume they're bad people. We recognize that 1524 01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:21,000 Speaker 19: the world is moving fast that they need time and 1525 01:16:21,040 --> 01:16:22,720 Speaker 19: maybe a little encouragement to catch up. 1526 01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:25,640 Speaker 2: All right, I mean tone policing Obama. I mean I 1527 01:16:25,640 --> 01:16:27,960 Speaker 2: don't disagree with a word that he said. I mean, 1528 01:16:28,000 --> 01:16:30,479 Speaker 2: this is something that people always forget about Obama. This 1529 01:16:30,520 --> 01:16:32,920 Speaker 2: is the guy who lied about not supporting gay marriage 1530 01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 2: in two thousand, right, this is the guy who's like, 1531 01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 2: what are you talking about? I love to shoot guns. 1532 01:16:36,800 --> 01:16:39,920 Speaker 2: I'm not a rich liberal from Chicago who you know. 1533 01:16:39,960 --> 01:16:43,479 Speaker 2: And the point behind that is actually sometimes trying to 1534 01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:46,120 Speaker 2: play up and be you know, trying to relate to 1535 01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:48,519 Speaker 2: people who you're not like is not a bad thing. 1536 01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:51,720 Speaker 2: And he's about persuading people to vote for you. And 1537 01:16:52,439 --> 01:16:54,760 Speaker 2: no matter what, he was never good at getting other 1538 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:57,920 Speaker 2: people elected, lost state houses and all that, he was 1539 01:16:57,960 --> 01:17:00,920 Speaker 2: great at getting himself elected. I mean, twenty twelve was 1540 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:03,560 Speaker 2: a winnable race for Republicans, and I think in retrospect 1541 01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:06,720 Speaker 2: he actually Obama very easily could have been beaten. But 1542 01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:10,600 Speaker 2: he played a masterful campaign, brutal against Romney despite the 1543 01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 2: bad economy and up until the day he left office 1544 01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:17,559 Speaker 2: maintain a some fifty five something sixty percent approval rating. 1545 01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:20,040 Speaker 2: That's high, and people should listen and learn from that. 1546 01:17:20,120 --> 01:17:22,439 Speaker 2: Part of the reason that Obama got the primetime speech 1547 01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:24,840 Speaker 2: last night, how I Bill Clinton is getting a primetime 1548 01:17:24,880 --> 01:17:27,400 Speaker 2: speech right before Tim Walls. Not an accident in either 1549 01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 2: of those cases. 1550 01:17:28,040 --> 01:17:30,640 Speaker 3: No, absolutely not. And the yes she can chance. I 1551 01:17:30,640 --> 01:17:32,400 Speaker 3: don't even want to gloss over that. I feel like 1552 01:17:32,439 --> 01:17:36,599 Speaker 3: that's actually a really really big deal because you're transferring, right. 1553 01:17:36,640 --> 01:17:39,840 Speaker 3: It's sort of like how Hillary Clinton transferred herself as 1554 01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:43,200 Speaker 3: this building block she transferred twenty sixteen in two thousand 1555 01:17:43,200 --> 01:17:45,200 Speaker 3: and eight to some extent to this building block to 1556 01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,800 Speaker 3: the first female presidency. And what you have with Obama 1557 01:17:48,000 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 3: is this transferring of inspirational energy that a lot of 1558 01:17:51,439 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 3: Democratic voters still remember than to Kamala Harris. And I 1559 01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:58,000 Speaker 3: think Obama's at his worst when he's lecturing. This is 1560 01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:01,479 Speaker 3: least likable. When he's it's like he's talking down to 1561 01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:05,160 Speaker 3: the public. That's not his strength. I think that's when 1562 01:18:05,200 --> 01:18:10,200 Speaker 3: he like veers into the unlikable Obama. But when he's likable, 1563 01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:13,559 Speaker 3: he reminds people why they showed up in the streets 1564 01:18:13,560 --> 01:18:16,000 Speaker 3: of Chicago for him in the I mean didn't even 1565 01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:20,639 Speaker 3: remember how big that crowd was electional it was. That's 1566 01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:22,640 Speaker 3: a legendary moment in American and so if you can 1567 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:24,920 Speaker 3: channel that to the Harris campaign, just to give him, 1568 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:26,920 Speaker 3: give her a little bit of that magic, as Michelle 1569 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:29,519 Speaker 3: Obama mentioned, if you can rub off on her some 1570 01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:31,360 Speaker 3: of that. It did not work for Hillary Clinton. We 1571 01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:32,360 Speaker 3: talked about this recently. 1572 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:35,559 Speaker 2: My final thought on just on the DNC everything that happened. Yes, 1573 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,880 Speaker 2: there were contradictions JB. Pritzker, Bernie Sanders, but in prime time, 1574 01:18:39,040 --> 01:18:42,120 Speaker 2: the Obamas, they really brought it home. Obama, by the way, 1575 01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:44,360 Speaker 2: did take time to actually thank Joe Biden, so you know, 1576 01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:46,680 Speaker 2: at least somebody in the family was like, hey, you know, 1577 01:18:46,840 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 2: thank you very much, Joe Biden for everything that you're doing. 1578 01:18:51,160 --> 01:18:53,960 Speaker 2: In terms of how it went for them, I thought 1579 01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:56,519 Speaker 2: that it was effective in trying to transfer as much 1580 01:18:56,560 --> 01:18:59,040 Speaker 2: as their energy as they can. Let's not forget they 1581 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 2: weren't able to put Hillary across the line. You know, 1582 01:19:01,680 --> 01:19:03,720 Speaker 2: it's not like they still are able to do that, 1583 01:19:03,760 --> 01:19:06,559 Speaker 2: but they did their best that they could to kind 1584 01:19:06,560 --> 01:19:11,120 Speaker 2: of fire up the energy.

That's a fascinating question, 1601 01:19:59,360 --> 01:20:00,960 Speaker 3: like think of the exect sure state. Who do we 1602 01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:01,599 Speaker 3: go with here? 1603 01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:09,120 Speaker 7: Well, the scariest one is Treasury secretary. There is there 1604 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:14,480 Speaker 7: are some indications that Gina Rimando, who desperately tried to 1605 01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:19,680 Speaker 7: become Treasury secretary under the Biden administration and ended up 1606 01:20:19,680 --> 01:20:21,920 Speaker 7: being Commerce Secretary she was kind of blocked by the 1607 01:20:22,040 --> 01:20:25,280 Speaker 7: kind of Warren faction Bernie faction in Washington, d C. 1608 01:20:25,920 --> 01:20:31,080 Speaker 7: She's a former banker who became Rhode Island's governor, as 1609 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:35,360 Speaker 7: friendly to corporate America and banks as you can get 1610 01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:40,200 Speaker 7: in today's Democratic Party, which is awfully friendly. And there 1611 01:20:40,280 --> 01:20:44,040 Speaker 7: was a report that she was vetted for a vice president, 1612 01:20:44,040 --> 01:20:46,920 Speaker 7: and I think that was a I think that was 1613 01:20:46,960 --> 01:20:50,240 Speaker 7: basically a fake report in the sense that they wanted 1614 01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:52,519 Speaker 7: it hanging out there that she was being vetted for 1615 01:20:52,640 --> 01:20:55,639 Speaker 7: vice president despite the fact that they were never going 1616 01:20:55,680 --> 01:20:58,320 Speaker 7: to choose her, so that when she was then named 1617 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:01,599 Speaker 7: as Treasury secretary, it'd be a more palatable and predictable. 1618 01:21:01,840 --> 01:21:04,120 Speaker 7: Oh yeah, she was almost vice president and like we're 1619 01:21:04,160 --> 01:21:07,080 Speaker 7: gonna have a We're gonna have a woman Treasury sector 1620 01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 7: in yell and followed by Ramato. So I think that 1621 01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:13,519 Speaker 7: would be a pretty dark signal of which if if 1622 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:17,439 Speaker 7: Kamala does go that direction and you're looking at a 1623 01:21:17,520 --> 01:21:20,840 Speaker 7: very like kind of corporate friendly administration at that point, however, 1624 01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:23,720 Speaker 7: she would then be clashing with you know, Lena Kahan 1625 01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:27,559 Speaker 7: wrote hit Chopra over it over at CPB, which is sort. 1626 01:21:27,400 --> 01:21:30,160 Speaker 3: Of right where you had these people from totally different 1627 01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:32,519 Speaker 3: poles fighting it out Duking on his cabinet meetings. He 1628 01:21:32,640 --> 01:21:32,880 Speaker 3: liked it. 1629 01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:39,920 Speaker 7: So yeah, Secretary of State. So Jake Sullivan, no, she's 1630 01:21:39,920 --> 01:21:42,920 Speaker 7: getting rid of these guys to her to her credit, 1631 01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:46,960 Speaker 7: she has said Lloyd Austin gone, Jake Sullivan gone, Tony 1632 01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:47,719 Speaker 7: Blink and gone. 1633 01:21:47,880 --> 01:21:48,120 Speaker 5: Good. 1634 01:21:48,160 --> 01:21:50,880 Speaker 3: Who does she surround herself with because for the last but. 1635 01:21:51,000 --> 01:21:53,759 Speaker 7: She's got two interesting So she's got Elon Goldberg and 1636 01:21:53,960 --> 01:21:58,160 Speaker 7: Phil Gordon as her like top. So Elon Goldberg uh 1637 01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:03,280 Speaker 7: Is hit is her liaison basically to the Jewish community. 1638 01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:07,200 Speaker 7: Is kind of a well respected He's like a liberal 1639 01:22:07,280 --> 01:22:14,080 Speaker 7: Zionist basically, but like there's some hostility to him from 1640 01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:18,280 Speaker 7: the APAC world. It's not but you're never You're never 1641 01:22:18,320 --> 01:22:22,360 Speaker 7: going to get like an anti Zionist, certainly not in 1642 01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:26,080 Speaker 7: the that liaison position, but not as Secretary of State either. 1643 01:22:26,560 --> 01:22:33,600 Speaker 7: Phil Gordon wrote wrote a book about American coups and interventions, 1644 01:22:34,760 --> 01:22:37,280 Speaker 7: and the thesis of the book is that they have 1645 01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:40,960 Speaker 7: almost always like been disastrous for the country where we 1646 01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,280 Speaker 7: carried them out, but also counter to us interest. So 1647 01:22:43,439 --> 01:22:46,600 Speaker 7: it would be fascinating if that trajectory continues. 1648 01:22:47,200 --> 01:22:49,559 Speaker 3: Well, just Yeah, that is super interesting. And just think 1649 01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:54,080 Speaker 3: about this since what ninth, So since January of two thousand, 1650 01:22:54,880 --> 01:23:01,680 Speaker 3: Democrats have not had a personnel situation of non Obama 1651 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,280 Speaker 3: people in the White House. So this is like the 1652 01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:07,000 Speaker 3: torch being passed to Kamala Harris and her saying no 1653 01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:09,679 Speaker 3: to Biden world.

We have 1680 01:24:31,760 --> 01:24:33,920 Speaker 2: a quote here from Jonathan Carl I will not confirm 1681 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:37,160 Speaker 2: or deny that about endorsing Donald Trump. We're not talking 1682 01:24:37,320 --> 01:24:39,800 Speaker 2: RFK Junior is saying. This is RFK jing saying that 1683 01:24:39,840 --> 01:24:43,000 Speaker 2: what's your reaction? Tell us kind of your what you're seeing, hearing, 1684 01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:43,439 Speaker 2: et cetera. 1685 01:24:44,120 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 21: They want to surprise people on Friday. We're going to 1686 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:50,040 Speaker 21: see how many people speak about this, both what they 1687 01:24:50,040 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 21: announced and whether he shows up at this I think 1688 01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:54,439 Speaker 21: he's turning for an action event. Yeah, and nobody around 1689 01:24:54,439 --> 01:24:55,760 Speaker 21: this event is confirmed. How We're going to have an 1690 01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:57,639 Speaker 21: amazing moment. You're gonna love it. They want they want 1691 01:24:57,680 --> 01:25:00,320 Speaker 21: some suspense, but that's clearly where it's heading and Trump 1692 01:25:00,320 --> 01:25:02,800 Speaker 21: Trump has already done with Democrats. I was talking to 1693 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:06,840 Speaker 21: like which is saying that he likes RFK, would put 1694 01:25:06,880 --> 01:25:10,680 Speaker 21: him administration. They believe their whole heuristic this year is 1695 01:25:10,800 --> 01:25:13,720 Speaker 21: these guys are weird, and they believe through lots of 1696 01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:18,439 Speaker 21: money and opposition research and media outreach, they have defined 1697 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:21,440 Speaker 21: RFK from what he was before to a laughingstock. 1698 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:24,000 Speaker 8: They had other words in my phone for him. 1699 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 21: But they really think that when people hear RK, maybe 1700 01:25:26,479 --> 01:25:28,040 Speaker 21: whatever they thought of him two years ago, they now 1701 01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:32,439 Speaker 21: think brainworm, leaving a bear, Central Park, conspiracy. Theorists will 1702 01:25:32,439 --> 01:25:35,400 Speaker 21: say anything, and they think that they could build, they 1703 01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,600 Speaker 21: could duct take that to Trump now. That that is 1704 01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:39,680 Speaker 21: their take, which I think might be a little bit optimistic, 1705 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:41,600 Speaker 21: because there are a trunk of voters who hate the 1706 01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:44,160 Speaker 21: establishment and that say, oh, well Trump, if Trump brings 1707 01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:45,479 Speaker 21: him this guy, I'm interested. 1708 01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:47,439 Speaker 3: But they don't think that'll matter. That's that's their take, 1709 01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 3: all right. 1710 01:25:48,520 --> 01:25:51,160 Speaker 2: So what do you think is the Democratic reaction? Obviously 1711 01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:53,879 Speaker 2: they're they're not happy about it. But with Trump himself. 1712 01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:55,599 Speaker 2: One of the things I'm interested in because you talk 1713 01:25:55,640 --> 01:25:58,640 Speaker 2: to these guys too. They didn't want to have they 1714 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 2: didn't want to do the prequel quid pro quote deal 1715 01:26:01,360 --> 01:26:05,720 Speaker 2: with him from cabinet membership. So is what what realistically 1716 01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 2: can RFK get out of Donald Trump at this point? 1717 01:26:08,400 --> 01:26:10,880 Speaker 21: Well, Trump already the thing is, he already said he'd 1718 01:26:10,920 --> 01:26:12,559 Speaker 21: be interested in putting putting him aministration. 1719 01:26:12,720 --> 01:26:14,080 Speaker 8: So what are the follow up questions? 1720 01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,519 Speaker 21: And Trump on like unlike other presidential candidates, does lots 1721 01:26:16,520 --> 01:26:19,120 Speaker 21: of lots of questions. He's I wouldn't say he's been 1722 01:26:19,120 --> 01:26:20,760 Speaker 21: baited into. He likes it anyway, but they're doing more 1723 01:26:20,800 --> 01:26:23,679 Speaker 21: because Kamlo is not doing it. What are the follow 1724 01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:25,840 Speaker 21: up questions? Where would you put my administration? Do you 1725 01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:27,960 Speaker 21: agree with him on vaccines? You could just kind of 1726 01:26:27,960 --> 01:26:30,000 Speaker 21: write little keep going, write a list of things he 1727 01:26:30,000 --> 01:26:33,799 Speaker 21: would get asked. I haven't talked to a Democratic senator 1728 01:26:33,880 --> 01:26:35,599 Speaker 21: since this. I would talk to some this morning, were 1729 01:26:35,600 --> 01:26:36,080 Speaker 21: at the convention. 1730 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:37,439 Speaker 3: It's not hard. They're everywhere, Yeah they are. 1731 01:26:37,600 --> 01:26:39,519 Speaker 21: But a question for them is would you vote to 1732 01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:42,120 Speaker 21: confirm this guy anything? And they'll probably say they'll probably 1733 01:26:42,160 --> 01:26:44,360 Speaker 21: say no es because they think he's they think he's 1734 01:26:44,400 --> 01:26:47,840 Speaker 21: a lunatic at this point. But it becomes a series 1735 01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 21: of questions and we're it's seventy seven days. 1736 01:26:50,520 --> 01:26:51,519 Speaker 8: That's there's a lot of days. 1737 01:26:51,560 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 21: But every day you're spending on odd questions about a 1738 01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:57,519 Speaker 21: potential personnel pick is not a win. You're not You're 1739 01:26:57,520 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 21: not You're not nailing Tim Walls, You're not nailing Kamala Harris. 1740 01:26:59,840 --> 01:27:02,160 Speaker 21: You're saying, would we put this guy who look at 1741 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:04,160 Speaker 21: this clip of him saying something weird on a podcast 1742 01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:05,240 Speaker 21: seven months ago. 1743 01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:07,360 Speaker 8: I might be I might be made inlining too much. 1744 01:27:07,240 --> 01:27:08,960 Speaker 21: Of what Democrats are saying, just because they were answering 1745 01:27:08,960 --> 01:27:10,200 Speaker 21: my text faster in the last. 1746 01:27:10,200 --> 01:27:11,880 Speaker 3: Thirty minutes and we're surrounded by them. 1747 01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:14,000 Speaker 21: But that's there, they think because because what would this 1748 01:27:14,000 --> 01:27:16,040 Speaker 21: look like? Would it step on their convention? It would 1749 01:27:16,080 --> 01:27:17,680 Speaker 21: be news that would come out of the convention, but 1750 01:27:17,680 --> 01:27:19,000 Speaker 21: they don't think it would be bad for them. 1751 01:27:19,360 --> 01:27:21,439 Speaker 3: I could see Trump having a lot of fun actually 1752 01:27:21,680 --> 01:27:24,599 Speaker 3: potentially with Kennedy, because I think Trump understands the Kennedy 1753 01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:27,479 Speaker 3: aesthetics maybe better than RFK Junior does at this point, 1754 01:27:27,600 --> 01:27:29,599 Speaker 3: Like I could see Trump trotting him out at rallies 1755 01:27:29,640 --> 01:27:33,479 Speaker 3: and being like this is a member of Democratic royalty, 1756 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:36,799 Speaker 3: This is a Kennedy. The Kennedys are an iconic American family, 1757 01:27:36,840 --> 01:27:38,320 Speaker 3: and he can't stomach the Democrats. 1758 01:27:38,439 --> 01:27:39,880 Speaker 8: Right, No, this is an argum. That's an argument Trump 1759 01:27:39,920 --> 01:27:40,640 Speaker 8: could make about it. 1760 01:27:40,720 --> 01:27:42,800 Speaker 21: And and I have met I know of people who 1761 01:27:42,840 --> 01:27:45,000 Speaker 21: just don't like your audience rightly, people like people know 1762 01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,080 Speaker 21: who watched their show, listen to Joe Rogan and uh, 1763 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,240 Speaker 21: they would take a second look at Trump if if 1764 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:51,839 Speaker 21: someone like Kennedy, who they think is honest. 1765 01:27:52,200 --> 01:27:54,080 Speaker 8: I mean I always I read YouTube comments. I'm not 1766 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:55,400 Speaker 8: sure why, but you do see this. 1767 01:27:55,479 --> 01:27:57,599 Speaker 21: People who are not maybe in the meanstre media discourse, 1768 01:27:57,640 --> 01:28:00,439 Speaker 21: hear him and think this guy can't maybe saying all this, 1769 01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:02,840 Speaker 21: he must be honest. There is no politician that talks 1770 01:28:02,880 --> 01:28:04,800 Speaker 21: like this. He would have announced, write with I think 1771 01:28:05,080 --> 01:28:06,080 Speaker 21: you're right he would have that. 1772 01:28:06,080 --> 01:28:08,960 Speaker 2: With life, I mean empirically too, Dave. He is drawing 1773 01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,519 Speaker 2: votes away from Trump at this point. Yet at this 1774 01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:14,320 Speaker 2: point it's just crystal clear, like we see it where 1775 01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:16,920 Speaker 2: he was at twelve percent or whatever, drops down five 1776 01:28:17,200 --> 01:28:20,599 Speaker 2: almost all the Democrats disaffected as going back to kam Law. 1777 01:28:20,720 --> 01:28:23,360 Speaker 2: So for Trump, like it's a problem and it would 1778 01:28:23,360 --> 01:28:24,600 Speaker 2: be smart for him to make a deal with it. 1779 01:28:24,720 --> 01:28:27,280 Speaker 21: Yeah, Democrats have been dugging against him. They never thought 1780 01:28:27,320 --> 01:28:29,000 Speaker 21: he they thought I think for the last couple of 1781 01:28:29,040 --> 01:28:31,240 Speaker 21: weeks that he who was hurting Trump, But they still 1782 01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:33,040 Speaker 21: thought it was an X factor. And right now they're 1783 01:28:33,040 --> 01:28:35,439 Speaker 21: in a good mood right now. Obviously right now they 1784 01:28:35,439 --> 01:28:37,040 Speaker 21: are thinking we can put together a two thousand and 1785 01:28:37,040 --> 01:28:40,479 Speaker 21: eight coalition who cares, we don't need to sleep slice 1786 01:28:40,479 --> 01:28:41,559 Speaker 21: off votes for him. 1787 01:28:42,120 --> 01:28:44,760 Speaker 8: But they not enough up. 1788 01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:47,800 Speaker 21: But also the only money being spent for Kennedy by 1789 01:28:47,840 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 21: a party was Republicans. Republican donors funding a pack that 1790 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:54,280 Speaker 21: restoration pack at different pack in Pennsylvania, some of that, 1791 01:28:54,320 --> 01:28:56,080 Speaker 21: but there's one in Pennsylvania that was saying direct mail 1792 01:28:56,160 --> 01:28:59,240 Speaker 21: to Democrats and saying, hey, Democrats, rfk is on the ballot. 1793 01:28:59,240 --> 01:29:01,800 Speaker 21: He's a great Democrat, he's progressive, he's pro choice. They're 1794 01:29:01,840 --> 01:29:04,360 Speaker 21: still and maybe they were just behind behind the times, 1795 01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:06,920 Speaker 21: but Democrats have been convinced for a long time there 1796 01:29:07,040 --> 01:29:09,000 Speaker 21: is there that these guys are just not gettable and 1797 01:29:09,040 --> 01:29:12,320 Speaker 21: their coalition. I mentioned those voters they're not getting Joe 1798 01:29:12,400 --> 01:29:15,720 Speaker 21: Rogan voters, they're not getting like the working class people 1799 01:29:15,880 --> 01:29:19,920 Speaker 21: guys undecided about this. They are getting college educated liberals 1800 01:29:19,960 --> 01:29:21,960 Speaker 21: who like the Kennedys but think this guy is bad, 1801 01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:23,639 Speaker 21: and so they just don't talk to these people anymore. 1802 01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:26,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, curious for you today. I just think they're totally 1803 01:29:27,400 --> 01:29:29,160 Speaker 7: missing it, like I think Democrats are. Yeah, yeah, I 1804 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:33,720 Speaker 7: think Democrats are wrong that this could this could significantly 1805 01:29:33,720 --> 01:29:35,519 Speaker 7: help Trump at the margins. If this is if this 1806 01:29:35,600 --> 01:29:38,120 Speaker 7: is another election that's decided in a handful of swing 1807 01:29:38,160 --> 01:29:40,519 Speaker 7: states by one hundred and fifty thousand votes or two 1808 01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:45,280 Speaker 7: hundred thousand votes total, and it moves five five percent 1809 01:29:45,360 --> 01:29:48,920 Speaker 7: is a lot. Yeah, that's five percent in falling. So 1810 01:29:49,160 --> 01:29:52,360 Speaker 7: by the time if he if he stays into November, 1811 01:29:52,680 --> 01:29:54,479 Speaker 7: he might be a two or three percent by the 1812 01:29:54,520 --> 01:29:56,759 Speaker 7: time that all comes around. But two or three percent 1813 01:29:56,800 --> 01:29:58,760 Speaker 7: is enough in one hundred and fifty thousand, you know. 1814 01:29:58,800 --> 01:29:59,000 Speaker 17: Yeah. 1815 01:29:59,000 --> 01:30:00,880 Speaker 21: And I was talking to other Vercraft's not today but 1816 01:30:00,920 --> 01:30:03,040 Speaker 21: before who were just who were joking but joking with 1817 01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 21: intent that it'd be great if one of our rich 1818 01:30:04,920 --> 01:30:09,080 Speaker 21: people started sending mail to the guys who we know 1819 01:30:09,160 --> 01:30:11,519 Speaker 21: with like an NFL channel subscriptions saying you're gonna love 1820 01:30:11,560 --> 01:30:14,760 Speaker 21: RFK Junior. Yeah, in the context that they thought they had, 1821 01:30:14,800 --> 01:30:17,479 Speaker 21: they had to pump him up. The one the X 1822 01:30:17,520 --> 01:30:20,519 Speaker 21: factor is how popular is is Kamal Harris by the 1823 01:30:20,560 --> 01:30:22,840 Speaker 21: time we vote, Because that's I think what I'm talking about. 1824 01:30:22,840 --> 01:30:23,360 Speaker 8: They're getting this. 1825 01:30:23,520 --> 01:30:25,600 Speaker 21: The other thing right now was her favorables. This is 1826 01:30:25,680 --> 01:30:28,680 Speaker 21: unpreced editor up at at somebody this point in her 1827 01:30:28,680 --> 01:30:29,960 Speaker 21: life in American politics. 1828 01:30:30,280 --> 01:30:30,799 Speaker 8: Is now. 1829 01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:35,120 Speaker 21: Six to eight to nine points more popular, more favorably 1830 01:30:35,160 --> 01:30:38,240 Speaker 21: viewed than Trump. Walls is favorably viewed, and in a 1831 01:30:38,840 --> 01:30:41,240 Speaker 21: it's not a double hater election anymore, right now, it's not. 1832 01:30:41,439 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 21: It is an election between a Democrat who's about as 1833 01:30:44,120 --> 01:30:46,120 Speaker 21: popular as Biden was twenty twenty a little bit less, 1834 01:30:46,160 --> 01:30:49,479 Speaker 21: and Trump, who's more popular than ever but forty two percent. 1835 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 21: And they think in that well, fifty percent, that's it. 1836 01:30:52,280 --> 01:30:54,040 Speaker 21: We just we just go and convince everyone who voted 1837 01:30:54,080 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 21: for Mark Kelly and Arizona, everyone who voted for John 1838 01:30:56,960 --> 01:30:59,599 Speaker 21: Ozof and Georgia, those people just come back. You know us, 1839 01:30:59,680 --> 01:31:01,559 Speaker 21: you know you know Kamala Harris. You like her, don't you? 1840 01:31:01,800 --> 01:31:02,760 Speaker 3: So talk to us? 1841 01:31:02,840 --> 01:31:06,760 Speaker 2: So you've been around now Democrats, the narrative of joy 1842 01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:09,760 Speaker 2: and all that we personally like. There's a lot of 1843 01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:11,479 Speaker 2: Republicans are saying it's fake. I don't think it's fake. 1844 01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:14,240 Speaker 2: Being in the arena, there's a lot of unity. So 1845 01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:16,840 Speaker 2: what do you think the strategy coming out of this? 1846 01:31:16,920 --> 01:31:18,720 Speaker 2: You remember that you have a lot more access than 1847 01:31:18,720 --> 01:31:22,360 Speaker 2: we do. What is the reception about finally taking some 1848 01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:25,280 Speaker 2: questions the interviews, because that's been the most frustrating part 1849 01:31:25,280 --> 01:31:27,720 Speaker 2: for a lot of us. No interviews even scheduled now 1850 01:31:28,040 --> 01:31:30,840 Speaker 2: at this point, and the lack of press availability. Are 1851 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:34,280 Speaker 2: they are they just giving stonewall? What's the plan around it? 1852 01:31:34,400 --> 01:31:34,760 Speaker 2: Right now? 1853 01:31:34,880 --> 01:31:35,920 Speaker 8: They stolen on that. 1854 01:31:35,960 --> 01:31:38,240 Speaker 21: They're also still walling on just if they just put 1855 01:31:38,240 --> 01:31:41,280 Speaker 21: her policies on their website. I was just talking to 1856 01:31:41,360 --> 01:31:44,080 Speaker 21: some Democrats and more competitive races. They're not worried about 1857 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:49,120 Speaker 21: running on her anti price gouging or aid for first 1858 01:31:49,160 --> 01:31:50,920 Speaker 21: time home buyers. They're really they think they can defend it. 1859 01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:53,000 Speaker 21: I mean, talk to some candidates and close races, and 1860 01:31:53,040 --> 01:31:54,960 Speaker 21: so that's great. That's it's media I can talk about 1861 01:31:55,000 --> 01:31:55,639 Speaker 21: in some speech. 1862 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,479 Speaker 8: And they're not. They're being super cautious. They really are. 1863 01:31:58,680 --> 01:32:01,320 Speaker 21: The Trump critique that they are just trying to run 1864 01:32:01,400 --> 01:32:04,599 Speaker 21: a play, a movie, run a vibes campaign. It's right 1865 01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:06,759 Speaker 21: and Democrats are in a very. 1866 01:32:06,640 --> 01:32:07,599 Speaker 8: What are you going to do about it? 1867 01:32:07,640 --> 01:32:08,240 Speaker 3: Mode? 1868 01:32:08,439 --> 01:32:11,679 Speaker 21: Yeah, you can't force us to take questions. It needs 1869 01:32:11,680 --> 01:32:14,400 Speaker 21: to get so it's get toxically bad. Their thing they're 1870 01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:17,959 Speaker 21: doing a little bit is waiting out some bad narratives. 1871 01:32:18,479 --> 01:32:20,280 Speaker 21: Had she did an interview on day one, she would 1872 01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:23,240 Speaker 21: have had answered Medicare for All questions. Had wallsen interview 1873 01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:26,320 Speaker 21: on day two, he would have had answered national Guard questions. 1874 01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:26,559 Speaker 5: Right. 1875 01:32:26,960 --> 01:32:29,240 Speaker 21: And how long can you make that old news? I 1876 01:32:29,240 --> 01:32:31,559 Speaker 21: think that's misguided. I mean because I see that at 1877 01:32:31,560 --> 01:32:34,920 Speaker 21: this convention. Josh Shapiro, for example, one example, he's been 1878 01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:36,680 Speaker 21: asked about a thousand times do you think it was 1879 01:32:36,720 --> 01:32:39,240 Speaker 21: anti Semitism? The reason that you're not on the ticket? 1880 01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:43,000 Speaker 21: He's answered it similar ways a thousand times. These stories 1881 01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:45,400 Speaker 21: don't die. People want their own sound, they want their 1882 01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:48,040 Speaker 21: own clips, so they will get this and there. I 1883 01:32:48,040 --> 01:32:50,240 Speaker 21: don't think they're terrified. It's not like Hillary Clinton being 1884 01:32:50,240 --> 01:32:52,080 Speaker 21: worried that every press conference is going to be emails 1885 01:32:52,080 --> 01:32:55,160 Speaker 21: and servers and why do people tru distrust you? But 1886 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:57,960 Speaker 21: they're not even scheduling a TikTok implementer who is going 1887 01:32:58,000 --> 01:32:59,719 Speaker 21: to softball tim they're. 1888 01:32:59,520 --> 01:33:01,799 Speaker 3: Not doing any even doing that. That's and they just think. 1889 01:33:01,680 --> 01:33:02,920 Speaker 8: They don't need to, which I don't think. 1890 01:33:03,000 --> 01:33:05,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, yeah, what's your sense of Actually our colleagues 1891 01:33:05,800 --> 01:33:07,840 Speaker 3: in the press, especially people that you spend a lot 1892 01:33:07,880 --> 01:33:10,040 Speaker 3: of time with when you're kind of walking around the 1893 01:33:10,040 --> 01:33:12,639 Speaker 3: convention area, and that because with Biden when he wasn't 1894 01:33:12,640 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 3: doing interviews in twenty twenty, the anger from the press 1895 01:33:15,640 --> 01:33:18,000 Speaker 3: I think actually really did push the Biden campaign, like 1896 01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:20,960 Speaker 3: forced their hand. Do you get the sense that that 1897 01:33:21,120 --> 01:33:23,400 Speaker 3: type of anger is going to start bubbling over the 1898 01:33:23,439 --> 01:33:25,559 Speaker 3: surface to the point where Kamala Harris is forced to 1899 01:33:25,600 --> 01:33:26,920 Speaker 3: start doing way more press. 1900 01:33:28,439 --> 01:33:32,040 Speaker 21: Yeah, and who forces her? But there are some quasi 1901 01:33:32,080 --> 01:33:36,719 Speaker 21: traditions that should be happening right now. There the Time 1902 01:33:36,760 --> 01:33:39,679 Speaker 21: magazine thing, if you still care about print. I still 1903 01:33:39,720 --> 01:33:41,720 Speaker 21: don't care at print. It is weird to get the 1904 01:33:41,760 --> 01:33:46,280 Speaker 21: cover with that an interview that's around a convention. The 1905 01:33:46,360 --> 01:33:48,920 Speaker 21: old tradition was there's a cover, it's both can't tickets, 1906 01:33:48,920 --> 01:33:50,960 Speaker 21: And they did their Trump interview in the summer, they 1907 01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:53,240 Speaker 21: did their buy an interview. There should have been a 1908 01:33:53,360 --> 01:33:56,880 Speaker 21: Kamala Harris and the ticket and yeah, they do both. 1909 01:33:57,080 --> 01:33:58,280 Speaker 21: I don't know, I don't work a time. I don't 1910 01:33:58,280 --> 01:34:00,880 Speaker 21: know if that's being negotiated. Probably not. There should be 1911 01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:03,480 Speaker 21: a sixty minute sit down another quase. I mean, these 1912 01:34:03,520 --> 01:34:05,840 Speaker 21: are like Biden the super Bowl interviews. It's not in 1913 01:34:05,840 --> 01:34:09,120 Speaker 21: the constitution, but you usually do them. Yeah, exactly. And 1914 01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:12,960 Speaker 21: I think the Trump storyline, which is consistent that she 1915 01:34:13,200 --> 01:34:16,360 Speaker 21: is just loopy and she can't defend her policies, that 1916 01:34:16,400 --> 01:34:18,360 Speaker 21: has stuck a little bit. That's why they're taking more 1917 01:34:18,439 --> 01:34:22,800 Speaker 21: questions on the tarmac, taking any which is that mollified things. 1918 01:34:22,800 --> 01:34:24,960 Speaker 21: I guess to back it up, the reason you're not 1919 01:34:25,000 --> 01:34:26,720 Speaker 21: seeing people saying when the hail is this going to 1920 01:34:26,760 --> 01:34:29,519 Speaker 21: happen is Biden was locked up and not doing anything 1921 01:34:29,640 --> 01:34:31,840 Speaker 21: for weeks at a time in twenty twenty. The fact 1922 01:34:31,920 --> 01:34:34,280 Speaker 21: that there is a clock that restarts every time she 1923 01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:37,080 Speaker 21: goes out of the bus, take six questions and they 1924 01:34:37,120 --> 01:34:39,519 Speaker 21: answer the news of the day, and the Trump campaign 1925 01:34:39,560 --> 01:34:40,880 Speaker 21: bats it around that. 1926 01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:42,960 Speaker 8: I don't know how many hours it starts, the clock 1927 01:34:42,960 --> 01:34:44,559 Speaker 8: and fared a few days. You don't hear about that. 1928 01:34:44,720 --> 01:34:47,720 Speaker 21: Yeah, I don't think that could last. If they go 1929 01:34:47,800 --> 01:34:50,200 Speaker 21: through the week after the convention, no interviews, that would 1930 01:34:50,000 --> 01:34:52,200 Speaker 21: would be okay. Seriously, though, you're not going to deal, 1931 01:34:52,240 --> 01:34:54,719 Speaker 21: because then you start to leave questions for the debate, 1932 01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:57,160 Speaker 21: and you leave moderators questions like do you want, for 1933 01:34:57,200 --> 01:35:00,439 Speaker 21: the first time you have to defend a complicated to 1934 01:35:00,479 --> 01:35:01,760 Speaker 21: be on a debate stage with Trump. 1935 01:35:01,840 --> 01:35:03,519 Speaker 8: Maybe it goes well, maybe it doesn't. 1936 01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:06,360 Speaker 21: You'd rather get that through in a news cycle with 1937 01:35:06,800 --> 01:35:07,800 Speaker 21: Leslie Stall or somebody. 1938 01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:10,519 Speaker 7: That's an interesting Yeah, it is an interesting point that 1939 01:35:10,560 --> 01:35:14,600 Speaker 7: this comes after months of Biden either being unwilling or 1940 01:35:14,640 --> 01:35:17,000 Speaker 7: unable to do serious press availability. 1941 01:35:17,080 --> 01:35:17,240 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1942 01:35:17,280 --> 01:35:19,880 Speaker 7: Sure, and to the extent that he would do them, 1943 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:22,800 Speaker 7: the only questions that we would get answered were like 1944 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:26,599 Speaker 7: how cogent he was that day, not you know what 1945 01:35:26,680 --> 01:35:29,760 Speaker 7: his actual defense of this particular policy was. And he's 1946 01:35:29,800 --> 01:35:30,880 Speaker 7: not even the one running anymore. 1947 01:35:30,960 --> 01:35:33,840 Speaker 21: So yeah, yeah, And it is it's a different problem 1948 01:35:33,880 --> 01:35:37,879 Speaker 21: because she she can give, she can give bad answers, 1949 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:39,920 Speaker 21: she can give good answers. Biden just was not giving 1950 01:35:39,960 --> 01:35:42,960 Speaker 21: good answers to anything. Go through it again, and every 1951 01:35:43,040 --> 01:35:45,960 Speaker 21: question was on the frame no one's going I can't 1952 01:35:45,960 --> 01:35:47,880 Speaker 21: speak for everybody. People are not going to walk into 1953 01:35:47,880 --> 01:35:50,680 Speaker 21: a Biden interview and say Americans think you're stupid and 1954 01:35:50,680 --> 01:35:53,080 Speaker 21: you're drunk all the time, what's your answer that that's 1955 01:35:53,160 --> 01:35:55,560 Speaker 21: not the overall and press there's not eighty percent of 1956 01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:58,320 Speaker 21: people telling posters, I think that that's Trump's rates on 1957 01:35:58,320 --> 01:36:00,519 Speaker 21: Twitter saying that that is not how people think of 1958 01:36:00,520 --> 01:36:04,320 Speaker 21: Harrisey poll most people think that she's competent to be president. 1959 01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:06,720 Speaker 21: They don't have those problems. So there's not a good 1960 01:36:06,760 --> 01:36:08,599 Speaker 21: reason to not put her out there. And if you've 1961 01:36:08,640 --> 01:36:11,439 Speaker 21: interviewed her, I haven't. I haven't a while really since 1962 01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:14,679 Speaker 21: she was running for president. But she can overtalk things, 1963 01:36:14,680 --> 01:36:17,000 Speaker 21: but so could Brock Obama. But Barack Obama could give 1964 01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:19,280 Speaker 21: like a long professorial answer it was weird, it would 1965 01:36:19,479 --> 01:36:22,040 Speaker 21: go somewhere that it was usually more. He would land 1966 01:36:22,080 --> 01:36:24,719 Speaker 21: someplace boring, not weird typically but right. 1967 01:36:24,560 --> 01:36:28,400 Speaker 7: And yeah, yeah, she she loops around, which is her problem. 1968 01:36:28,439 --> 01:36:31,160 Speaker 7: Whereas and you can watch her looping around. Yeah, gets 1969 01:36:31,160 --> 01:36:35,000 Speaker 7: stuck in the loop. Where Whereas Biden Biden might meander 1970 01:36:35,720 --> 01:36:38,960 Speaker 7: I'm not Biden, sorry, Biden about by Obama would kind 1971 01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:42,000 Speaker 7: of meander, but it would when you transcribe it, it's 1972 01:36:42,000 --> 01:36:44,599 Speaker 7: still a paragraph that was like making a coherentill point. 1973 01:36:45,040 --> 01:36:48,000 Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, hers, they don't look crazy, but you're that's 1974 01:36:48,040 --> 01:36:50,000 Speaker 21: a good way to put it that she she knows 1975 01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:51,640 Speaker 21: the point she wants to make, and she thinks of 1976 01:36:51,680 --> 01:36:53,200 Speaker 21: something that she's add to it, but then she goes 1977 01:36:53,240 --> 01:36:53,799 Speaker 21: back to make. 1978 01:36:53,640 --> 01:36:55,879 Speaker 8: The first point. It's just people learn different. 1979 01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:59,880 Speaker 21: They as soon as why Tim Wall speaks different because 1980 01:36:59,880 --> 01:37:01,880 Speaker 21: he was a teacher and he and he was like 1981 01:37:01,920 --> 01:37:03,600 Speaker 21: being a teacher for years and years and having that 1982 01:37:03,640 --> 01:37:08,000 Speaker 21: kind of rhetoric versus being a district attorney and making 1983 01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:11,360 Speaker 21: making arguments in court rooms and called the jury one 1984 01:37:11,400 --> 01:37:15,000 Speaker 21: hundred times. Yeah, I don't think it's like crippling problem. 1985 01:37:15,160 --> 01:37:17,080 Speaker 21: But she just she she rambles in a different way. 1986 01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:20,320 Speaker 2: Hey, what I keep hearing from the Trump people is honeymoon, honeymoon, honeymoon. 1987 01:37:20,360 --> 01:37:22,920 Speaker 2: We're going to kill them after Labor Day, And I, well, 1988 01:37:22,960 --> 01:37:24,960 Speaker 2: it's you know, it's kind of a long time, like 1989 01:37:25,040 --> 01:37:29,200 Speaker 2: voting starts, voting starts, So yeah, I don't really understand, like. 1990 01:37:29,360 --> 01:37:32,000 Speaker 8: Why the way early vote that starts early. 1991 01:37:32,479 --> 01:37:34,760 Speaker 2: So what's your assessment? Is that cope that I'm hearing from. 1992 01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 2: It's definitely true that they're going to killer after labor Day? 1993 01:37:37,479 --> 01:37:39,240 Speaker 2: But is it cope in that they just don't what 1994 01:37:39,360 --> 01:37:41,640 Speaker 2: to do? Like a lot of stuff is not sticking. 1995 01:37:41,920 --> 01:37:44,679 Speaker 21: A little bit of his cope because I'm very forgiving. 1996 01:37:44,680 --> 01:37:46,920 Speaker 21: Even when I talked to Democrats, they just yes, there, 1997 01:37:47,240 --> 01:37:48,840 Speaker 21: we never thought this would happen. There was a reason 1998 01:37:48,880 --> 01:37:50,400 Speaker 21: so many Democrats were saying, we need to open a 1999 01:37:50,439 --> 01:37:52,679 Speaker 21: convention because we're worried that Kamal is unpopular and she'll 2000 01:37:52,720 --> 01:37:56,880 Speaker 21: never who who gets more popular? Like after being vice 2001 01:37:56,880 --> 01:38:00,000 Speaker 21: president and becoming the candidate without anything happening. Who who 2002 01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:01,800 Speaker 21: would have if you had any of us or talked 2003 01:38:01,800 --> 01:38:03,920 Speaker 21: to a Democrat and said, hey, Coama's gonna have rally 2004 01:38:03,920 --> 01:38:07,560 Speaker 21: with eighteen thousand people, we wouldn't have believed that. So 2005 01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:10,080 Speaker 21: the Trump world is still adjusting to that weird reality. 2006 01:38:10,120 --> 01:38:13,439 Speaker 21: The part that's not COPE is they do they are, 2007 01:38:13,560 --> 01:38:16,040 Speaker 21: They have their ad spending, and it's not getting to 2008 01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:18,639 Speaker 21: discuss very much because I don't what gets in the discourse. 2009 01:38:18,680 --> 01:38:21,840 Speaker 21: Who knows if you watch their actual paid media, it's 2010 01:38:21,880 --> 01:38:25,280 Speaker 21: all very Here is a criminal that Kama let out 2011 01:38:25,280 --> 01:38:27,760 Speaker 21: of jail. Here's a criminal across the border. Here's a 2012 01:38:27,800 --> 01:38:32,360 Speaker 21: grizzly story of something that happened. It's her fault. They 2013 01:38:32,600 --> 01:38:35,280 Speaker 21: do have these clear messages of crime and the border. 2014 01:38:36,160 --> 01:38:38,040 Speaker 21: The COPE part of that is that they've been running 2015 01:38:38,040 --> 01:38:40,000 Speaker 21: them for a month and they haven't really done damage yet. 2016 01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:42,720 Speaker 21: Her favorables have gone up, But that's why you keep 2017 01:38:42,760 --> 01:38:45,080 Speaker 21: running them. I mean, so, I think I think they're 2018 01:38:45,120 --> 01:38:47,240 Speaker 21: not wrong. That you get out of the convention, you're 2019 01:38:47,280 --> 01:38:48,840 Speaker 21: gonna have more questions why is she's doing an interview 2020 01:38:48,880 --> 01:38:50,599 Speaker 21: and you're just gonna have more and more people clicking 2021 01:38:50,600 --> 01:38:53,719 Speaker 21: on YouTube and the pre roll ad is a terable 2022 01:38:53,800 --> 01:38:54,960 Speaker 21: crime that she let happen. 2023 01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:56,439 Speaker 8: Or they have their their own polling. 2024 01:38:56,520 --> 01:38:59,760 Speaker 21: Everybody's polling says that the urge people to don't donate 2025 01:38:59,800 --> 01:39:04,120 Speaker 21: to the Minnesota Minneapolis Freedom Fund was is a killer. Ye, 2026 01:39:04,439 --> 01:39:06,200 Speaker 21: they do think, and I think they're not crazy. If 2027 01:39:06,240 --> 01:39:08,320 Speaker 21: you just keep repeating that, people are gonna know. Democrats 2028 01:39:08,360 --> 01:39:11,360 Speaker 21: spent nine months talking about Presure twenty twenty five and 2029 01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:14,240 Speaker 21: then it really only clicked once Trump made a weird 2030 01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:15,960 Speaker 21: comment about how we didn't know who was behind it. 2031 01:39:16,120 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 21: But if you asked Democrats four months in, it was 2032 01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:20,040 Speaker 21: fair to say, like this is why are you still 2033 01:39:20,040 --> 01:39:21,880 Speaker 21: doing this? This is not clicking. So I think it's 2034 01:39:21,880 --> 01:39:25,240 Speaker 21: not coked. I think it's more money. It's the old 2035 01:39:25,280 --> 01:39:27,519 Speaker 21: like Steven Sondheim talking about West Side Story and they 2036 01:39:27,520 --> 01:39:29,280 Speaker 21: told him it wasn't hummable, and he's like, well then 2037 01:39:29,360 --> 01:39:31,280 Speaker 21: MGM spent ten million dollars promoting and all of a 2038 01:39:31,280 --> 01:39:32,000 Speaker 21: sudden it was humbable. 2039 01:39:32,080 --> 01:39:32,280 Speaker 5: Yeah. 2040 01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:34,599 Speaker 2: Good, that's a good last.

But the questions were generally 2092 01:41:51,600 --> 01:41:53,719 Speaker 21: about that, and she did not want to if she's 2093 01:41:53,800 --> 01:41:56,000 Speaker 21: everyone in the squad's aware how things can just become 2094 01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:59,479 Speaker 21: intra family few things with no content. Yeah, but but 2095 01:41:59,479 --> 01:42:03,040 Speaker 21: but that was that was a choice because they're negotiating 2096 01:42:03,080 --> 01:42:06,880 Speaker 21: for more both policy and at the convention itself. They 2097 01:42:06,920 --> 01:42:10,080 Speaker 21: do not want the offer at the convention to be well. 2098 01:42:10,320 --> 01:42:12,720 Speaker 21: Bernie and AOC and Biden all mentioned you and so 2099 01:42:12,840 --> 01:42:16,160 Speaker 21: we're good, right, And the answer from not her for 2100 01:42:16,240 --> 01:42:19,120 Speaker 21: other Democrats, they're just the evolving answer today was if 2101 01:42:19,160 --> 01:42:21,760 Speaker 21: we get a ceasefire, this this goes away, like they're 2102 01:42:21,800 --> 01:42:23,639 Speaker 21: serious about it, the arms and bargo talk. 2103 01:42:23,600 --> 01:42:24,240 Speaker 3: That goes away. 2104 01:42:25,080 --> 01:42:27,040 Speaker 21: But she was speaking because that was a pressor with 2105 01:42:27,360 --> 01:42:29,760 Speaker 21: the uncommitted delegates. Corey Bush was there. I'm not sure 2106 01:42:29,800 --> 01:42:33,360 Speaker 21: she was in the background. And yes, that is a break. 2107 01:42:33,360 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 21: She doesn't want to make it personal, but that is 2108 01:42:35,000 --> 01:42:37,280 Speaker 21: a please you and the media do not say that 2109 01:42:37,320 --> 01:42:39,040 Speaker 21: they have fixed this problem because of what they gave 2110 01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:42,120 Speaker 21: is the convention, you like, please be like me more 2111 01:42:42,160 --> 01:42:44,840 Speaker 21: cynical and ask more questions about this. That's it's a 2112 01:42:44,920 --> 01:42:47,040 Speaker 21: very inside outside thing that they were doing now because 2113 01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:49,160 Speaker 21: they're they have a lot of press. I mean, you 2114 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:51,800 Speaker 21: saw there I probably fifty to sixty people at that 2115 01:42:51,920 --> 01:42:57,960 Speaker 21: some foreign, but a lot American and Democrats are this 2116 01:42:57,960 --> 01:42:59,720 Speaker 21: happened in twenty sixteen, where there was less and less 2117 01:42:59,720 --> 01:43:01,160 Speaker 21: attention and over the course of the week to Bernie 2118 01:43:01,160 --> 01:43:03,120 Speaker 21: Bernie people and what the ah Mans were, and they 2119 01:43:03,160 --> 01:43:05,519 Speaker 21: know that could happen, so they're trying to just keep 2120 01:43:05,560 --> 01:43:08,479 Speaker 21: this in the blood stream. Continue if you cooc ask 2121 01:43:08,520 --> 01:43:10,479 Speaker 21: her this, if you see Bernie asking this, do not 2122 01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:12,920 Speaker 21: let this them go off stage and then say all right, well, 2123 01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:14,920 Speaker 21: what about the balloon dropt a news story? 2124 01:43:15,160 --> 01:43:18,360 Speaker 3: Well, both of you, actually, I'm curious for what you 2125 01:43:18,400 --> 01:43:21,559 Speaker 3: were hearing on this as to whether ilhan Omar is 2126 01:43:21,640 --> 01:43:25,200 Speaker 3: speaking for other members of the squad squad adjacent people. 2127 01:43:25,200 --> 01:43:27,400 Speaker 3: We talked to Greg Kasari yesterday but hadn't seen this yet, 2128 01:43:27,400 --> 01:43:29,479 Speaker 3: obviously because it hadn't happened. But do you get the 2129 01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:32,800 Speaker 3: sense that this divide between Ilhan Omar and AOC is 2130 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:36,679 Speaker 3: going to be deeper than just these two people, because 2131 01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:39,080 Speaker 3: here's a good tweet from Daniel Lobo. The gap between 2132 01:43:39,160 --> 01:43:42,160 Speaker 3: ilhan Omar and AOC will widen as AOC's larger political 2133 01:43:42,200 --> 01:43:45,160 Speaker 3: ambitions become more clear. So is this about those two 2134 01:43:45,560 --> 01:43:48,559 Speaker 3: or is this about AOC versus the squad at large? 2135 01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:52,759 Speaker 7: Well, if you're thinking of a four person squad, Rashida 2136 01:43:52,800 --> 01:43:54,360 Speaker 7: Tsleeb has not endorsed Kamala Harris. 2137 01:43:54,520 --> 01:43:56,120 Speaker 8: She's not the convention. She was on the list of 2138 01:43:56,120 --> 01:43:57,840 Speaker 8: a Michigan I didn't know she was. She was the 2139 01:43:58,439 --> 01:44:00,400 Speaker 8: Michigan Breakfast today and she was on the list. Shouldn't 2140 01:44:00,400 --> 01:44:00,760 Speaker 8: show up. 2141 01:44:00,800 --> 01:44:02,800 Speaker 7: She's just taking it. She's just taken a much lower 2142 01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:05,640 Speaker 7: kind of cable news profile, so you don't hear as 2143 01:44:05,720 --> 01:44:08,559 Speaker 7: much from her. But clearly like she's with il Han 2144 01:44:08,960 --> 01:44:12,800 Speaker 7: on this. Anna Presley obviously has you know, ambitions like 2145 01:44:12,840 --> 01:44:15,200 Speaker 7: you know, the Massachusetts senator or something like that. 2146 01:44:15,240 --> 01:44:17,360 Speaker 21: And is she was the one who did endorsed Warren 2147 01:44:17,439 --> 01:44:20,439 Speaker 21: and not not Bernie right, yeah, right, not a bitter. 2148 01:44:20,280 --> 01:44:24,360 Speaker 7: Split, but that was so Ilhan also posted this on Twitter, 2149 01:44:24,880 --> 01:44:28,120 Speaker 7: which I think Dave's phrasing of it, this is a 2150 01:44:28,240 --> 01:44:31,040 Speaker 7: choice is good. Like she she went out, she used 2151 01:44:31,040 --> 01:44:34,360 Speaker 7: the word tirelessly to reflect exactly what Aos said, so 2152 01:44:34,400 --> 01:44:36,880 Speaker 7: that it would be clear that she's talking about that 2153 01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:40,559 Speaker 7: moment and being and specifically saying that you should not 2154 01:44:40,760 --> 01:44:43,479 Speaker 7: use what AOC and Bernie said to take the pressure 2155 01:44:43,479 --> 01:44:45,960 Speaker 7: off Kamala Harris. So the way she tweeted it is 2156 01:44:46,600 --> 01:44:49,680 Speaker 7: Vice President Kamala Harris has an opportunity to demonstrate our 2157 01:44:49,720 --> 01:44:52,320 Speaker 7: party's courage and commitment to ending the genocide, not just 2158 01:44:52,360 --> 01:44:55,400 Speaker 7: in condemning it with words, but an action by conditioning 2159 01:44:55,439 --> 01:44:58,280 Speaker 7: aid a better world is possible, but we must have 2160 01:44:58,360 --> 01:44:59,800 Speaker 7: the courage to fight for it. And then she puts 2161 01:44:59,840 --> 01:45:03,679 Speaker 7: the entire clip of her speech at this presser up 2162 01:45:04,320 --> 01:45:07,400 Speaker 7: up on Twitter, and her longer argument is the reason 2163 01:45:07,800 --> 01:45:10,439 Speaker 7: I find this to be ridiculous, she says, is that 2164 01:45:10,479 --> 01:45:13,760 Speaker 7: if you're working tirelessly for a cease fire, all you 2165 01:45:13,840 --> 01:45:16,800 Speaker 7: have to do is stop sending the things they're using 2166 01:45:16,840 --> 01:45:19,120 Speaker 7: to fire, and then the firing will cease. 2167 01:45:19,439 --> 01:45:20,200 Speaker 8: You don't need to get. 2168 01:45:20,040 --> 01:45:25,040 Speaker 3: Tired at all, just you don't even need energy. 2169 01:45:25,160 --> 01:45:28,400 Speaker 2: Any last thoughts from things that you've just observed around 2170 01:45:28,439 --> 01:45:29,639 Speaker 2: here that I haven't asked you about. 2171 01:45:30,080 --> 01:45:33,280 Speaker 21: No, the meta question of why they're cool with what 2172 01:45:33,360 --> 01:45:36,160 Speaker 21: happened is interesting, and I keep thinking of metaphors that 2173 01:45:36,200 --> 01:45:36,839 Speaker 21: probably don't. 2174 01:45:36,640 --> 01:45:37,759 Speaker 8: Don't like do the whole business. 2175 01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:41,120 Speaker 21: But it really they were lying to themselves for so long. 2176 01:45:41,720 --> 01:45:44,760 Speaker 21: They were just lying to themselves that they don't say, 2177 01:45:44,760 --> 01:45:47,759 Speaker 21: I'm mind to myself, but lying to themselves that Biden 2178 01:45:47,880 --> 01:45:48,840 Speaker 21: was going to beast it out. 2179 01:45:48,920 --> 01:45:50,320 Speaker 8: It was not a problem. He was going to have 2180 01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:51,000 Speaker 8: another good debate. 2181 01:45:51,040 --> 01:45:54,080 Speaker 21: And you saw flashes of that when he spoke Monday 2182 01:45:54,080 --> 01:45:56,000 Speaker 21: in the first thirty minutes were fine, and you already 2183 01:45:56,000 --> 01:45:58,280 Speaker 21: talked to some Democrats, you had a flash of almost 2184 01:45:58,320 --> 01:46:00,800 Speaker 21: like somebody reaching like, well, I have had drink in ten. 2185 01:46:00,760 --> 01:46:05,680 Speaker 8: Years, but this is a this is a spritzer. I'm fine. 2186 01:46:06,360 --> 01:46:09,880 Speaker 21: Really, they they were just and I'm not trying to 2187 01:46:09,880 --> 01:46:13,080 Speaker 21: indict everyone, but they were just dishonest about about how 2188 01:46:13,160 --> 01:46:16,000 Speaker 21: Biden could win. And they the reason they're so joyous, 2189 01:46:16,040 --> 01:46:18,000 Speaker 21: I think is they are now being honest with themselves. 2190 01:46:18,160 --> 01:46:21,000 Speaker 21: Not that Kamala Harris will fix everything, but they really did. 2191 01:46:21,000 --> 01:46:23,000 Speaker 21: I mean I talked to delegates all the time who 2192 01:46:23,080 --> 01:46:24,920 Speaker 21: you know, they loved Kamala and twenty nineteen, and they 2193 01:46:24,920 --> 01:46:27,160 Speaker 21: were just hoping that some days should be better at 2194 01:46:27,200 --> 01:46:28,760 Speaker 21: this and they're just they were all in. 2195 01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:30,080 Speaker 8: They never really wanted Biden. 2196 01:46:30,160 --> 01:46:32,880 Speaker 21: We all look through twenty twenty is his consistency people 2197 01:46:32,880 --> 01:46:34,519 Speaker 21: who did not want him first but thought they had 2198 01:46:34,520 --> 01:46:37,800 Speaker 21: to settle for him. And this is after what's the 2199 01:46:37,840 --> 01:46:40,080 Speaker 21: long view of this? Twenty sixteen, half of them had 2200 01:46:40,080 --> 01:46:41,960 Speaker 21: to settle for Hillary. Twenty twenty, a half of them 2201 01:46:42,000 --> 01:46:43,800 Speaker 21: had to settle for Biden. This is the first time 2202 01:46:43,840 --> 01:46:46,840 Speaker 21: they said a candidate who is not hobbled runn against 2203 01:46:46,840 --> 01:46:49,519 Speaker 21: Donald Trump. We didn't realize we could do this, and 2204 01:46:49,960 --> 01:46:52,960 Speaker 21: we we were not being truthful with ourselves. How much 2205 01:46:53,000 --> 01:46:54,920 Speaker 21: better this would be. We have not had a we've 2206 01:46:54,960 --> 01:46:57,760 Speaker 21: not filled arenas in years. This great, Yeah, I. 2207 01:46:57,680 --> 01:47:01,439 Speaker 2: Mean the duel arena thing. We have got to be honest, 2208 01:47:01,840 --> 01:47:04,559 Speaker 2: big flex from I regrets. Hey, thank you for stopping by. 2209 01:47:04,560 --> 01:47:04,680 Speaker 10: Man. 2210 01:47:04,760 --> 01:47:09,960 Speaker 2: Oh great, really, we really enjoyed it. Let's go ahead 2211 01:47:10,000 --> 01:47:13,680 Speaker 2: and get some questions here in the chat. Here's a 2212 01:47:13,760 --> 01:47:17,200 Speaker 2: question for Emily from mac Lynn. Do you think Trump 2213 01:47:17,280 --> 01:47:21,320 Speaker 2: will actually enact any populist economic policies if elected? 2214 01:47:21,720 --> 01:47:23,080 Speaker 3: I think it would be the same thing as what 2215 01:47:23,080 --> 01:47:25,160 Speaker 3: we saw in the last term where there's a war, 2216 01:47:25,320 --> 01:47:26,800 Speaker 3: and you'll probably have a good sense of this too. 2217 01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:29,479 Speaker 3: There's a war between the JD. Vances and the Mike Pences. 2218 01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:32,120 Speaker 3: He's still going to put people like Mike Pompeo in charge, 2219 01:47:32,120 --> 01:47:35,000 Speaker 3: and that's there's nuance about how exactly Mike Pompeo is 2220 01:47:35,000 --> 01:47:37,280 Speaker 3: he a realist, is he a neo khon? But he 2221 01:47:37,439 --> 01:47:40,080 Speaker 3: still you know, has a different take on Ukraine than JD. 2222 01:47:40,160 --> 01:47:43,280 Speaker 3: Vance does. So I think it would be a constant battle, 2223 01:47:43,400 --> 01:47:46,919 Speaker 3: meaning each side wins a little, but the establishment probably 2224 01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:49,320 Speaker 3: wins more because they have home field advantage in the swamp. 2225 01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:52,040 Speaker 3: So I think it's it's both people would get a 2226 01:47:52,040 --> 01:47:53,800 Speaker 3: little bit. Both sides woul get a little bit, but 2227 01:47:54,040 --> 01:47:55,760 Speaker 3: the home field advantage would go. 2228 01:47:55,800 --> 01:47:56,280 Speaker 5: To the swamp. 2229 01:47:56,400 --> 01:47:58,439 Speaker 2: Okay, all right, I thought I think that was good. 2230 01:47:58,520 --> 01:48:01,680 Speaker 2: Let's see question when Obama says nicknames. Oh no, I'm 2231 01:48:01,720 --> 01:48:06,160 Speaker 2: not asking that one. I'll just say there was a book, 2232 01:48:06,280 --> 01:48:08,880 Speaker 2: there was a big mic reference. Okay, Soger will reap, 2233 01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:12,200 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, I'm not I'm not going into 2234 01:48:12,200 --> 01:48:14,080 Speaker 2: that one. For Sager, What is the best food that 2235 01:48:14,120 --> 01:48:16,439 Speaker 2: you've had in Chicago so far? From Orlando. 2236 01:48:17,200 --> 01:48:19,880 Speaker 3: This is a good question because you even like we 2237 01:48:19,920 --> 01:48:22,559 Speaker 3: actually got you to try what you didn't want to try. 2238 01:48:22,600 --> 01:48:23,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. I tried. 2239 01:48:24,000 --> 01:48:27,000 Speaker 3: Where do we going to Lume mal Naughtiest to lou 2240 01:48:27,080 --> 01:48:30,920 Speaker 3: mal Naughties delicious? Look, I love Luemel Natties. I'm just 2241 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:31,880 Speaker 3: I didn't like it. 2242 01:48:31,880 --> 01:48:33,839 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest with you. I'm not a deep disguise. 2243 01:48:34,000 --> 01:48:35,000 Speaker 2: I think it's kind of gross. 2244 01:48:35,000 --> 01:48:36,280 Speaker 3: You got a Caesar salad. 2245 01:48:36,360 --> 01:48:39,479 Speaker 2: I got I ate my Caesar. I had my chicken. 2246 01:48:39,640 --> 01:48:43,120 Speaker 2: You know, I need some vegetables, some fiber and protein. 2247 01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:44,719 Speaker 2: And then I said, okay, I'm gonna take a tiny 2248 01:48:44,760 --> 01:48:47,240 Speaker 2: little slice out of this thing.

I'm not gonna lie. 2255 01:48:55,840 --> 01:48:57,320 Speaker 2: Hey, you know what, We're at barstool, So I'll do 2256 01:48:57,360 --> 01:48:59,559 Speaker 2: the Dave Portnoy thing.

All right, let's not us. 2299 01:50:22,080 --> 01:50:24,040 Speaker 5: There's a lot of prim's. 2300 01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:25,639 Speaker 3: It's more complicated than it sounds. 2301 01:50:25,760 --> 01:50:26,519 Speaker 5: Yeah, but that's right. 2302 01:50:26,560 --> 01:50:28,639 Speaker 2: I mean, as everyone can witness here. Oh the sound 2303 01:50:28,640 --> 01:50:29,160 Speaker 2: doesn't work. 2304 01:50:29,200 --> 01:50:29,720 Speaker 3: What about this? 2305 01:50:29,840 --> 01:50:31,680 Speaker 2: You got to pull this thing up? So so and 2306 01:50:31,760 --> 01:50:32,559 Speaker 2: so came in late. 2307 01:50:33,040 --> 01:50:33,840 Speaker 3: It's not so easy. 2308 01:50:33,880 --> 01:50:36,080 Speaker 2: So I actually doing this has made me really respect 2309 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:40,360 Speaker 2: the people who like only stream. I totally understand how 2310 01:50:40,400 --> 01:50:44,120 Speaker 2: technically difficult it all is. All right, Uh, let's see 2311 01:50:44,680 --> 01:50:50,599 Speaker 2: and continue here in the chat question this AOC running. 2312 01:50:50,600 --> 01:50:53,240 Speaker 2: I think we kind of answered that yesterday. Ryan, Do 2313 01:50:53,320 --> 01:50:57,400 Speaker 2: you hate Dave Matthews since you're a fisherman? I don't 2314 01:50:57,479 --> 01:50:58,599 Speaker 2: want there, Like, what's the deal. 2315 01:50:59,840 --> 01:51:03,200 Speaker 7: No, Oh, they're actually they're friends. They themselves are friends. 2316 01:51:03,280 --> 01:51:05,519 Speaker 7: A lot of the fans are like, think that Dave 2317 01:51:05,560 --> 01:51:09,920 Speaker 7: Matthew sucks. Don't think he sucks. But I'm not into 2318 01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:10,519 Speaker 7: Dave Matthews. 2319 01:51:10,560 --> 01:51:14,599 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, all right, I'm super for what it's worth. 2320 01:51:14,720 --> 01:51:17,479 Speaker 2: Okay, let's do you think that there is a chance 2321 01:51:17,560 --> 01:51:19,839 Speaker 2: RFK going to the Trump campaign is a net negative 2322 01:51:19,840 --> 01:51:22,639 Speaker 2: for Trump with the split between Harris and Fourth parties. 2323 01:51:22,840 --> 01:51:24,920 Speaker 2: I am an RFK volunteer and no chance that I 2324 01:51:24,920 --> 01:51:27,840 Speaker 2: go to Trump. This is Bucos eleven O two. You know, 2325 01:51:27,960 --> 01:51:31,880 Speaker 2: that's an interesting question. So something Dave brought up that 2326 01:51:31,920 --> 01:51:35,280 Speaker 2: I have been thinking about now is that RFK you know, 2327 01:51:35,439 --> 01:51:38,760 Speaker 2: famously told me. What did he say? He said, there's 2328 01:51:38,800 --> 01:51:42,200 Speaker 2: a lot of skeletons in my closet. It's like, and 2329 01:51:42,240 --> 01:51:43,800 Speaker 2: if they could all vote, then I would lose in 2330 01:51:43,800 --> 01:51:46,479 Speaker 2: the landslide something. The thing is for Trump, if you 2331 01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:48,879 Speaker 2: actively have this guy on your team, it's just a distraction. 2332 01:51:49,000 --> 01:51:50,720 Speaker 2: And what do we know about Trump? He hates when 2333 01:51:50,720 --> 01:51:53,799 Speaker 2: the main story is not about him. He hates whenever 2334 01:51:53,840 --> 01:51:56,800 Speaker 2: people are talking about things that he then gets attached to. 2335 01:51:57,160 --> 01:51:59,360 Speaker 2: Notice how he distanced himself a little bit from JD 2336 01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:01,800 Speaker 2: there where he's like, well, you know, nobody votes for 2337 01:52:01,840 --> 01:52:06,240 Speaker 2: the vice president, so historically it doesn't matter. In that case, 2338 01:52:06,360 --> 01:52:08,240 Speaker 2: I could see Trump kind of getting fed up a 2339 01:52:08,240 --> 01:52:11,679 Speaker 2: little bit with RFK. If RFK starts to cause problems 2340 01:52:11,720 --> 01:52:12,679 Speaker 2: for him, what do you think, Emily? 2341 01:52:12,800 --> 01:52:16,799 Speaker 3: Well, so no, because I think if RFK Junior drops 2342 01:52:16,840 --> 01:52:21,840 Speaker 3: out of this really like much hyped third party bid, 2343 01:52:22,000 --> 01:52:24,599 Speaker 3: he becomes such a non story that there's no threat. 2344 01:52:24,680 --> 01:52:28,400 Speaker 3: He distracts from Donald Trump. And there are enough there are. 2345 01:52:28,400 --> 01:52:29,640 Speaker 3: There are a whole lot of people, as we've been 2346 01:52:29,640 --> 01:52:31,960 Speaker 3: talking about, that will not go from RFK Junior to Trump, 2347 01:52:32,160 --> 01:52:34,240 Speaker 3: but there are enough on the margins to matter, just 2348 01:52:34,320 --> 01:52:37,599 Speaker 3: like happened with Jill Stein in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan. 2349 01:52:38,000 --> 01:52:41,080 Speaker 3: So I think it's it's only a net benefit. I 2350 01:52:41,080 --> 01:52:44,040 Speaker 3: think it's a drag for RFK Junior way more than 2351 01:52:44,120 --> 01:52:44,920 Speaker 3: it's a drag for Trump. 2352 01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:45,320 Speaker 5: Got it. 2353 01:52:45,600 --> 01:52:48,240 Speaker 2: Here's a question for Sager and Emily. Do your right 2354 01:52:48,280 --> 01:52:50,519 Speaker 2: wing colleagues and friends think that you are too left 2355 01:52:50,600 --> 01:52:52,799 Speaker 2: on any issues? What do you think, Emily? 2356 01:52:53,000 --> 01:52:53,240 Speaker 3: Yes? 2357 01:52:53,280 --> 01:52:54,400 Speaker 2: What do you know? What I get the most shit 2358 01:52:54,479 --> 01:52:57,599 Speaker 2: about is Israel? Oh my god, I can't take it anymore. 2359 01:52:57,720 --> 01:52:59,200 Speaker 2: By the way, Yeah, for those who are out there, 2360 01:52:59,200 --> 01:53:01,320 Speaker 2: stop texting me. I'm text you back and it's annoying. 2361 01:53:01,320 --> 01:53:03,559 Speaker 2: All right, start your own show. I don't give a shit. 2362 01:53:03,720 --> 01:53:05,040 Speaker 2: I really don't care what we have to say. 2363 01:53:05,160 --> 01:53:07,280 Speaker 3: This is something that people don't realize though, I'll get 2364 01:53:07,280 --> 01:53:09,840 Speaker 3: this off my chest, is that we hear all like 2365 01:53:10,400 --> 01:53:13,160 Speaker 3: what we do is different than what most news people do, 2366 01:53:13,320 --> 01:53:16,040 Speaker 3: and that we have like honest, open, transparent conversations. Tell 2367 01:53:16,040 --> 01:53:19,040 Speaker 3: you I actually think, yes exactly, and then you know, 2368 01:53:19,120 --> 01:53:21,960 Speaker 3: if we go and agree with Ryan or Crystal on something, 2369 01:53:22,720 --> 01:53:26,080 Speaker 3: it takes like for us. Yeah, not that we're heroes, 2370 01:53:26,360 --> 01:53:28,800 Speaker 3: but it does, like we take so much a lot, 2371 01:53:28,960 --> 01:53:30,960 Speaker 3: just like Ryan and Crystal take flack when they say 2372 01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:33,799 Speaker 3: something that agrees with us. So it's again, it's harder 2373 01:53:33,840 --> 01:53:37,120 Speaker 3: than it looks. We happen to for whatever personality reason, 2374 01:53:37,160 --> 01:53:40,000 Speaker 3: like we roll with it, but we take way more 2375 01:53:40,040 --> 01:53:41,320 Speaker 3: than people I think realize. 2376 01:53:41,439 --> 01:53:43,599 Speaker 2: Internally, there's a lot of internal shit. So the left 2377 01:53:43,640 --> 01:53:46,120 Speaker 2: there's a lot of external there's a lot of like beefing, 2378 01:53:46,479 --> 01:53:49,880 Speaker 2: But the right is because it's because the right infrastructure 2379 01:53:49,920 --> 01:53:54,760 Speaker 2: is so propped up by billionaires and specifically by employment. 2380 01:53:55,000 --> 01:53:58,439 Speaker 2: There is a lot of external conversation that is not 2381 01:53:58,520 --> 01:54:00,559 Speaker 2: allowed to occur. A lot of gate there's a lot 2382 01:54:00,560 --> 01:54:03,760 Speaker 2: of gatekeeping, and professional gate people are very afraid of 2383 01:54:04,080 --> 01:54:06,400 Speaker 2: saying things out of line. And you know, doing this 2384 01:54:06,479 --> 01:54:09,719 Speaker 2: job is been very liberating in some respects, but also, 2385 01:54:09,920 --> 01:54:13,360 Speaker 2: you know, Emily, we lose access to the system. We 2386 01:54:13,439 --> 01:54:15,640 Speaker 2: don't get invited to a lot of the things that 2387 01:54:15,680 --> 01:54:18,320 Speaker 2: we used to. I'm very okay with that. I'm genuinely fine. 2388 01:54:18,360 --> 01:54:19,519 Speaker 2: Like it's like, oh, I don't get to go to 2389 01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:22,120 Speaker 2: the AI annual dinner. I'm not gonna lie. It's nice, Okay, 2390 01:54:22,120 --> 01:54:24,439 Speaker 2: it's nice. Like it's a nice place. It's a light Yeah, 2391 01:54:24,720 --> 01:54:27,840 Speaker 2: the steak is good. There's like the beautiful little draperies. 2392 01:54:27,880 --> 01:54:30,080 Speaker 3: There's a bottomless shelf, you know, champagne. 2393 01:54:30,200 --> 01:54:32,280 Speaker 2: You get to take some nice photos when you're twenty five, 2394 01:54:32,320 --> 01:54:34,000 Speaker 2: get to put on a tucks you know, it's nice. 2395 01:54:34,120 --> 01:54:36,200 Speaker 2: But after a while you're like, well, who's paying for 2396 01:54:36,240 --> 01:54:38,120 Speaker 2: all this booze? Right? Like why is this one million 2397 01:54:38,200 --> 01:54:40,360 Speaker 2: dollar party? It's okay, you know, so be it. I've 2398 01:54:40,400 --> 01:54:42,440 Speaker 2: just made peace with the fact that I don't get 2399 01:54:42,440 --> 01:54:45,600 Speaker 2: to do that. But there is an entire set in Washington. 2400 01:54:46,320 --> 01:54:49,440 Speaker 2: They live for this. They literally live for the circuit, 2401 01:54:49,720 --> 01:54:52,240 Speaker 2: or for the access or in a circle. Ye didn't 2402 01:54:52,240 --> 01:54:54,640 Speaker 2: know what did Noam Chomsky says, like you if your 2403 01:54:54,640 --> 01:54:58,280 Speaker 2: paycheck depends on something, then it's just very unlikely that 2404 01:54:58,360 --> 01:55:03,000 Speaker 2: you will ever sink up. Upton scare. That's right, Upton sync. Yeah, 2405 01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:05,400 Speaker 2: that's something that he said something about like a man. 2406 01:55:05,400 --> 01:55:07,720 Speaker 7: Very hard to convince somebody of something if their paycheck 2407 01:55:07,720 --> 01:55:09,280 Speaker 7: depends on not understanding. 2408 01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:11,640 Speaker 2: It exactly right. And look, I mean that's just empirically true. 2409 01:55:11,760 --> 01:55:13,720 Speaker 2: I do think a huge amount of the right. It's 2410 01:55:13,760 --> 01:55:15,400 Speaker 2: not fair to say they're bought and paid for. It's 2411 01:55:15,400 --> 01:55:18,320 Speaker 2: that their economic incentives do not align with them being 2412 01:55:18,360 --> 01:55:20,160 Speaker 2: able to say whatever they want to say. So we 2413 01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:21,880 Speaker 2: are very unique in that respect, and a lot of 2414 01:55:21,880 --> 01:55:24,200 Speaker 2: that invites just a ton of shit because they have 2415 01:55:24,280 --> 01:55:27,280 Speaker 2: these like professional enforcers that are just out there. 2416 01:55:27,360 --> 01:55:28,720 Speaker 3: But that that is why. 2417 01:55:28,560 --> 01:55:30,800 Speaker 2: Though my response is always like, hey man, start your 2418 01:55:30,800 --> 01:55:33,760 Speaker 2: own thing. Let's see if people want to hear your 2419 01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:37,720 Speaker 2: bottled up bull you know, your poll tested bullshit about 2420 01:55:37,720 --> 01:55:42,640 Speaker 2: why Israel is the greatest nation on earth, be my guest. Okay, 2421 01:55:42,680 --> 01:55:45,400 Speaker 2: go work at the Daily Wire, you know, go for 2422 01:55:45,440 --> 01:55:45,760 Speaker 2: it well. 2423 01:55:45,960 --> 01:55:49,520 Speaker 3: And one quick point on that is just it looks. 2424 01:55:49,880 --> 01:55:51,840 Speaker 3: I think the one thing that our show does that 2425 01:55:51,880 --> 01:55:55,000 Speaker 3: other shows don't is that we are actually in Washington, 2426 01:55:55,080 --> 01:55:58,080 Speaker 3: d c and we are actually talking to lawmakers, we're 2427 01:55:58,120 --> 01:56:01,960 Speaker 3: actually talking to lobbyists, we're actually talking to like movers 2428 01:56:01,960 --> 01:56:05,120 Speaker 3: and shakers, power brokers. At the same time, we are 2429 01:56:05,160 --> 01:56:08,320 Speaker 3: trying to have open, honest and transparent conversations, and Washington 2430 01:56:08,400 --> 01:56:11,840 Speaker 3: is not used to that, so they reflexively will cut 2431 01:56:11,880 --> 01:56:14,840 Speaker 3: off access. They reflexively will try to like dunk on 2432 01:56:14,960 --> 01:56:18,160 Speaker 3: you on X. They'll reflexively sort of relegate you to 2433 01:56:18,280 --> 01:56:21,560 Speaker 3: the fringe for doing that. So it's a very rare 2434 01:56:21,680 --> 01:56:25,240 Speaker 3: combination and I feel like we are like super lucky 2435 01:56:25,280 --> 01:56:27,040 Speaker 3: that we're pulling it off. Not just like it's a 2436 01:56:27,040 --> 01:56:29,080 Speaker 3: lot of skill from you and Crystal in particular, who've 2437 01:56:29,080 --> 01:56:32,080 Speaker 3: paved the path. But it's a new thing and it 2438 01:56:32,160 --> 01:56:34,920 Speaker 3: is very It's also harder than it looks because it 2439 01:56:34,920 --> 01:56:37,360 Speaker 3: looks like we're just talking. But behind the scenes, what 2440 01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:39,800 Speaker 3: you don't see is so much trash being tal. 2441 01:56:40,200 --> 01:56:42,560 Speaker 2: Yeah trash yeah, but again, you know, say it behind 2442 01:56:42,720 --> 01:56:44,720 Speaker 2: be my guest, Okay, I don't care, like this is 2443 01:56:44,760 --> 01:56:48,160 Speaker 2: my thing. I don't care at a certain anymore. 2444 01:56:47,720 --> 01:56:49,600 Speaker 1: Which is a lot braver than a most hosts who 2445 01:56:49,600 --> 01:56:52,160 Speaker 1: will only go on shows where there's only one opinion, 2446 01:56:52,200 --> 01:56:54,520 Speaker 1: which is like every other show except ours, and I 2447 01:56:54,520 --> 01:56:56,920 Speaker 1: think a few others which are then forced to actually 2448 01:56:56,960 --> 01:56:57,760 Speaker 1: hear a different opinion. 2449 01:56:57,760 --> 01:56:59,760 Speaker 2: That's very kind, Griffin, thank you well.

So it has It has 2591 02:02:55,200 --> 02:02:59,720 Speaker 7: leaked out that Greg Gazar, who is the whip for 2592 02:02:59,800 --> 02:03:04,280 Speaker 7: the Congressional Progressive Caucus, is running to replace Promila Jaya 2593 02:03:04,360 --> 02:03:06,800 Speaker 7: paul As as chair of the caucus. One of the 2594 02:03:06,840 --> 02:03:09,960 Speaker 7: key questions facing the CPC is how much of a 2595 02:03:10,000 --> 02:03:11,680 Speaker 7: fighting force it's going to be and whether it's going 2596 02:03:11,720 --> 02:03:14,800 Speaker 7: to shrink down in size. But running for CPC, you 2597 02:03:14,840 --> 02:03:18,360 Speaker 7: have there's a catch twenty two. You can't it's it'd 2598 02:03:18,360 --> 02:03:20,440 Speaker 7: be pretty hard to run saying you're going to kick 2599 02:03:20,440 --> 02:03:22,920 Speaker 7: half the membership out because they have to vote for 2600 02:03:22,960 --> 02:03:25,200 Speaker 7: you to beat the chair. So you can kind of 2601 02:03:25,200 --> 02:03:28,800 Speaker 7: watch how he balances the questions about how he's going 2602 02:03:28,840 --> 02:03:31,880 Speaker 7: to how he's going to handle this. But this I 2603 02:03:31,880 --> 02:03:33,840 Speaker 7: think he has a good shot of getting this position, 2604 02:03:33,840 --> 02:03:36,120 Speaker 7: which shows kind of how quickly his star is rising 2605 02:03:36,120 --> 02:03:36,640 Speaker 7: in Congress. 2606 02:03:36,680 --> 02:03:38,640 Speaker 2: Let's roll some of that mac there for the people. 2607 02:03:39,240 --> 02:03:44,800 Speaker 7: So you're running for Congressional Progressive Caucus Chair? What would 2608 02:03:44,800 --> 02:03:46,960 Speaker 7: you do differently? What are you running like? How would 2609 02:03:46,960 --> 02:03:48,400 Speaker 7: you set up the CPC if you won? 2610 02:03:48,760 --> 02:03:52,840 Speaker 10: Well, I think it's less about it's going to be 2611 02:03:52,880 --> 02:03:55,640 Speaker 10: different because based on a variety of scenarios, do we 2612 02:03:55,640 --> 02:03:58,160 Speaker 10: win the White House, do we have a majority in 2613 02:03:58,200 --> 02:04:00,440 Speaker 10: the House, what does the Senate look like? But at 2614 02:04:00,480 --> 02:04:03,120 Speaker 10: the end of the day, I think that we're now 2615 02:04:03,160 --> 02:04:05,400 Speaker 10: in a position where many of the things we've been 2616 02:04:05,400 --> 02:04:08,440 Speaker 10: talking about is progressive issues for a long time, taking 2617 02:04:08,480 --> 02:04:12,120 Speaker 10: on corporate price gallaging and taking on big corporate landlords, 2618 02:04:13,160 --> 02:04:18,080 Speaker 10: restoring voting rights, these things are actually now the core 2619 02:04:18,160 --> 02:04:21,280 Speaker 10: of what we're hearing from the from the Harris Walls campaign, 2620 02:04:21,800 --> 02:04:26,160 Speaker 10: and so I think we have a real chance to say, hey, 2621 02:04:26,200 --> 02:04:30,120 Speaker 10: the progressive position is actually the popular position. A lot 2622 02:04:30,160 --> 02:04:33,200 Speaker 10: of times, you know, progressive members, we've been pushed and said, well, 2623 02:04:33,240 --> 02:04:35,880 Speaker 10: we're not being electorally realistic. I think we're actually not 2624 02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:41,480 Speaker 10: going to be pushing the majority platform, and so I'm 2625 02:04:41,520 --> 02:04:43,840 Speaker 10: really excited about the potential for that. Last thing I'll 2626 02:04:43,840 --> 02:04:45,440 Speaker 10: say on that front is, you know, we've got the 2627 02:04:45,440 --> 02:04:49,320 Speaker 10: Trump tex cuts expiring, and that again is a place 2628 02:04:49,360 --> 02:04:54,320 Speaker 10: where the progressive vision of raising taxes on the wealthiest 2629 02:04:54,360 --> 02:04:59,040 Speaker 10: and the biggest corporations is actually the majoritarian opinion. And 2630 02:04:59,120 --> 02:05:03,520 Speaker 10: so I think bringing the progressive cocks fully into being 2631 02:05:04,240 --> 02:05:07,280 Speaker 10: organized as a block to say, you know what, we're 2632 02:05:07,280 --> 02:05:10,400 Speaker 10: not going to take a bad deal. We're we actually 2633 02:05:10,440 --> 02:05:12,640 Speaker 10: have the vast majority of the voters with us, and 2634 02:05:12,680 --> 02:05:16,560 Speaker 10: we're going to help Harris Wallas administration do something that 2635 02:05:16,640 --> 02:05:18,200 Speaker 10: we haven't been able to do before. I think that'd 2636 02:05:18,240 --> 02:05:18,800 Speaker 10: be really exciting. 2637 02:05:18,880 --> 02:05:21,800 Speaker 7: Well, tax is interesting because if they don't pass anything, 2638 02:05:22,120 --> 02:05:25,960 Speaker 7: then taxes go up, so on the rich, on the rich. 2639 02:05:26,640 --> 02:05:29,760 Speaker 7: The knock on the CPC has always been it's been 2640 02:05:29,760 --> 02:05:32,480 Speaker 7: too big. And when Permilla took over, there was that 2641 02:05:32,520 --> 02:05:34,960 Speaker 7: committee that like I think that was maybe the term 2642 02:05:35,000 --> 02:05:38,400 Speaker 7: before or maybe the term that you started. Yeah, they tightened, 2643 02:05:38,880 --> 02:05:42,080 Speaker 7: tightened requirements. Would you would you do that further? Like 2644 02:05:42,640 --> 02:05:44,560 Speaker 7: should there be more of a litmus test to be 2645 02:05:44,600 --> 02:05:45,200 Speaker 7: in the CPC? 2646 02:05:45,600 --> 02:05:48,520 Speaker 10: Well, you know that's that's really up to the members 2647 02:05:48,520 --> 02:05:50,920 Speaker 10: to decide it. You know. I think here's here's the thing. 2648 02:05:51,880 --> 02:05:55,520 Speaker 10: When folks say, well, we would like all one hundred 2649 02:05:55,520 --> 02:05:58,880 Speaker 10: members to vote exactly the same fact is we're from 2650 02:05:58,920 --> 02:06:00,120 Speaker 10: one hundred different districts. 2651 02:06:00,920 --> 02:06:03,360 Speaker 7: That's why they say, let's how about a twenty four 2652 02:06:03,440 --> 02:06:05,080 Speaker 7: member subcocus or something like that. 2653 02:06:05,360 --> 02:06:08,720 Speaker 10: Sure, by those twenty four members can vote together already, 2654 02:06:09,240 --> 02:06:12,640 Speaker 10: I think having members, I'll. 2655 02:06:12,480 --> 02:06:14,640 Speaker 2: Break some of this down for us. So what was 2656 02:06:14,640 --> 02:06:16,520 Speaker 2: the most important part of that conversation? 2657 02:06:17,320 --> 02:06:21,280 Speaker 7: So, because Donald Trump used and Paul Ryan and Mitch 2658 02:06:21,320 --> 02:06:27,240 Speaker 7: McConnelly used budget reconciliation to pass his tax cuts, that 2659 02:06:27,360 --> 02:06:33,640 Speaker 7: means they expire after ten years, so you're or so 2660 02:06:33,680 --> 02:06:36,280 Speaker 7: you're you're looking there and there are other tax cuts 2661 02:06:36,480 --> 02:06:40,680 Speaker 7: reconciliation cuts that are coming up, so you're looking toward 2662 02:06:40,760 --> 02:06:44,520 Speaker 7: the future of when you do tax reform again that 2663 02:06:44,560 --> 02:06:49,040 Speaker 7: if Congress doesn't pass anything, that the tax rates all 2664 02:06:49,080 --> 02:06:52,120 Speaker 7: revert back to what they were before the Trump tax cuts, 2665 02:06:53,000 --> 02:06:57,200 Speaker 7: which means that progressives, this is his point that he's making, 2666 02:06:57,760 --> 02:07:01,880 Speaker 7: they actually have leverage because when they're trying to stop 2667 02:07:03,080 --> 02:07:06,480 Speaker 7: the IRA from build back better from passings, it's not 2668 02:07:06,520 --> 02:07:09,280 Speaker 7: good enough, it's too Many progressors are like, well, look, 2669 02:07:09,280 --> 02:07:11,880 Speaker 7: it's still oh, seven hundred billion dollars worth of spending. 2670 02:07:12,040 --> 02:07:14,400 Speaker 7: When they're trying to stop the Affordable Care Act because 2671 02:07:14,400 --> 02:07:16,520 Speaker 7: it doesn't have a public option for saying, well, this 2672 02:07:16,560 --> 02:07:19,000 Speaker 7: is a trillion dollars and it's going to expand access 2673 02:07:19,000 --> 02:07:22,879 Speaker 7: to people, and progressives always cave under that argument because 2674 02:07:23,560 --> 02:07:25,640 Speaker 7: they're not the Tea Party. They're not the Freedom Caucus. 2675 02:07:25,960 --> 02:07:29,160 Speaker 7: They if they can get half a loaf, eventually they're 2676 02:07:29,200 --> 02:07:33,320 Speaker 7: going to capitulate to that. The dynamic is completely different 2677 02:07:33,320 --> 02:07:36,600 Speaker 7: on taxes because they're like, you know what, screw the 2678 02:07:36,600 --> 02:07:40,760 Speaker 7: Trump tax cuts. Let them all expire. Yes, they'll a 2679 02:07:40,760 --> 02:07:42,480 Speaker 7: little it'll go up a little bit on the middle class, 2680 02:07:42,480 --> 02:07:45,120 Speaker 7: but mostly who will be hit is who benefited the 2681 02:07:45,160 --> 02:07:48,000 Speaker 7: first time around, which was you know, big corporations and 2682 02:07:48,080 --> 02:07:50,840 Speaker 7: the super rich. They'll be the ones that pay. So 2683 02:07:50,880 --> 02:07:52,880 Speaker 7: now you guys have to come deal with us. And 2684 02:07:52,960 --> 02:07:55,520 Speaker 7: so that's the that's the argument that he's he's making 2685 02:07:55,520 --> 02:07:56,880 Speaker 7: there what he said in that clip. He went on 2686 02:07:56,920 --> 02:08:00,480 Speaker 7: to talk about, say, Matt Cartwright, who rep resents the 2687 02:08:00,560 --> 02:08:04,600 Speaker 7: you know, northeast Pennsylvania district that was won by Donald Trump, 2688 02:08:04,640 --> 02:08:06,520 Speaker 7: but he supports Medicare for all. He's like a good 2689 02:08:06,520 --> 02:08:09,240 Speaker 7: progressive and he's saying, but look, is Matt Cartwright going 2690 02:08:09,320 --> 02:08:12,320 Speaker 7: to vote the exact same way that I vote in Austin, Texas. No, 2691 02:08:12,400 --> 02:08:14,600 Speaker 7: let's not. Let's be serious. Yes, but we still want 2692 02:08:14,640 --> 02:08:18,200 Speaker 7: populists like Matt Cartwright rather than you know, in the CPC, 2693 02:08:18,360 --> 02:08:20,280 Speaker 7: rather than a blue dog who represents. 2694 02:08:19,920 --> 02:08:20,760 Speaker 3: And that's significant. 2695 02:08:20,840 --> 02:08:21,320 Speaker 7: I'm scrammed. 2696 02:08:21,360 --> 02:08:24,040 Speaker 3: That's a significant clue as to what the makeup of 2697 02:08:24,080 --> 02:08:27,600 Speaker 3: a very important committee would look like in the future. 2698 02:08:27,680 --> 02:08:31,000 Speaker 2: All right, we've te's this clip long enough. Ryan Graham 2699 02:08:31,440 --> 02:08:32,920 Speaker 2: versus Julia Louis Dreyfus. 2700 02:08:33,040 --> 02:08:38,560 Speaker 3: Well here, so Ryan Grim best known for uh not 2701 02:08:38,640 --> 02:08:41,760 Speaker 3: best known, but well known for getting into a scuffle 2702 02:08:41,800 --> 02:08:44,400 Speaker 3: with Jesse Waters at a White House Correspondence Center one time. 2703 02:08:45,160 --> 02:08:49,400 Speaker 3: He doesn't quite get that heated with Julia Louis. But 2704 02:08:48,520 --> 02:08:52,400 Speaker 3: as We're all walking through the media row area and 2705 02:08:52,560 --> 02:08:55,200 Speaker 3: I was like, I think that's Julia Louis Dreyfus, So 2706 02:08:55,360 --> 02:08:57,160 Speaker 3: I kind of double back. I checked him, like that's 2707 02:08:57,200 --> 02:09:00,240 Speaker 3: Julia Louis Dreyfus. And Ryan's like, well, what should we ask? 2708 02:09:00,880 --> 02:09:03,120 Speaker 3: And I forget what I said. I think I said 2709 02:09:03,120 --> 02:09:06,600 Speaker 3: something like, is Kamala actually Selena Meyer, which has been 2710 02:09:06,640 --> 02:09:09,520 Speaker 3: debated and in VEEP circles. The creator of VIEP has 2711 02:09:09,520 --> 02:09:13,480 Speaker 3: said no, she is. But then yeah, of course, and 2712 02:09:13,560 --> 02:09:16,080 Speaker 3: Julialua Drevis wouldn't even she would say the same thing 2713 02:09:16,080 --> 02:09:18,320 Speaker 3: that the creator said. Now Ryan comes up with a 2714 02:09:18,320 --> 02:09:19,240 Speaker 3: brilliant question. 2715 02:09:19,320 --> 02:09:21,280 Speaker 7: Well apparently it's it not even original, but. 2716 02:09:21,680 --> 02:09:25,320 Speaker 3: Oh Okay, but the question is what viep character is 2717 02:09:25,440 --> 02:09:29,000 Speaker 3: jd Vance And so Ryan's like, yeah, we can do that, 2718 02:09:29,040 --> 02:09:29,440 Speaker 3: we can do. 2719 02:09:29,360 --> 02:09:31,880 Speaker 7: That answer question. 2720 02:09:31,960 --> 02:09:35,640 Speaker 3: And we're for context. We are in the media section 2721 02:09:35,880 --> 02:09:38,160 Speaker 3: of the convention, which is where people go to do 2722 02:09:38,360 --> 02:09:41,440 Speaker 3: media interviewers because reporters are swarming it. It's where if 2723 02:09:41,480 --> 02:09:43,520 Speaker 3: you're a reporter, that is where you stand if you're 2724 02:09:43,520 --> 02:09:45,600 Speaker 3: hoping to get quotes from different principles. 2725 02:09:45,720 --> 02:10:06,200 Speaker 23: All right, would tease it long enough, Julie, Julie read 2726 02:10:06,200 --> 02:10:08,320 Speaker 23: one quick question for you. 2727 02:10:08,440 --> 02:10:09,440 Speaker 8: That's a real quick question. 2728 02:10:09,520 --> 02:10:13,400 Speaker 4: One question, the appreciate, thank you. 2729 02:10:15,400 --> 02:10:18,760 Speaker 7: This is the media area, by the way. 2730 02:10:19,840 --> 02:10:22,200 Speaker 2: There's the music, dude, you the music. 2731 02:10:22,800 --> 02:10:24,960 Speaker 3: You cull the music. This is the media area. 2732 02:10:24,960 --> 02:10:25,360 Speaker 5: By the way. 2733 02:10:25,960 --> 02:10:28,720 Speaker 3: Your delivery was so perfect. Your delivery was so perfe 2734 02:10:28,720 --> 02:10:34,560 Speaker 3: and you weren't even trying. I mean, look, it was. 2735 02:10:34,600 --> 02:10:36,880 Speaker 7: Quite it was annoying. It was annoying, supernoying. 2736 02:10:37,000 --> 02:10:38,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, like it's like, why are you here? 2737 02:10:38,960 --> 02:10:42,400 Speaker 7: Then they kind of acknowledged the point I think leaving them. 2738 02:10:42,520 --> 02:10:43,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, that's right. 2739 02:10:43,080 --> 02:10:44,720 Speaker 2: Then she decided to leave the media. 2740 02:10:45,760 --> 02:10:47,760 Speaker 3: Woman. I wanted you to say, like, take your hands 2741 02:10:47,800 --> 02:10:49,520 Speaker 3: off me. Yeah, she gave you a nice pat on 2742 02:10:49,560 --> 02:10:50,080 Speaker 3: the shoulder. 2743 02:10:50,560 --> 02:10:52,600 Speaker 2: What you also saw there was Ryan building up the 2744 02:10:52,640 --> 02:10:55,520 Speaker 2: coverage to do it, which I will say as a journalist, Uh, 2745 02:10:55,560 --> 02:10:58,320 Speaker 2: there is a moment that you always have to have 2746 02:10:58,560 --> 02:11:01,080 Speaker 2: where it's like, oh man, I'm gonna have to debase myself. 2747 02:11:01,720 --> 02:11:02,880 Speaker 3: But Ryan doesn't have that. 2748 02:11:02,960 --> 02:11:04,680 Speaker 2: No, Ryan doesn't hair, which is why I love you. 2749 02:11:04,720 --> 02:11:06,400 Speaker 2: Just you're gonna have to stick your mic in this 2750 02:11:06,520 --> 02:11:09,160 Speaker 2: lady's face and just start barking at her. And here's 2751 02:11:09,200 --> 02:11:10,400 Speaker 2: the thing that actually does work. 2752 02:11:10,440 --> 02:11:12,120 Speaker 7: They probably get nine out of ten. 2753 02:11:12,040 --> 02:11:14,000 Speaker 2: Times it won't work, but one out of ten sometimes 2754 02:11:14,080 --> 02:11:15,960 Speaker 2: you got something it. Imagine if she'd answered, it would 2755 02:11:15,960 --> 02:11:16,360 Speaker 2: have been good. 2756 02:11:16,400 --> 02:11:16,880 Speaker 7: So there you go. 2757 02:11:17,000 --> 02:11:18,640 Speaker 3: I don't know. I think the Viep storyline is really 2758 02:11:18,640 --> 02:11:20,760 Speaker 3: important to this election because we're talking about a woman 2759 02:11:20,800 --> 02:11:23,960 Speaker 3: who went from the least popular vice president modern history 2760 02:11:24,000 --> 02:11:26,520 Speaker 3: to someone with higher favorability than Donald Trump in the 2761 02:11:26,560 --> 02:11:29,120 Speaker 3: blink of an eye. And she was compared to Viep 2762 02:11:29,200 --> 02:11:33,040 Speaker 3: in the mema verse for literally years and especially it 2763 02:11:33,120 --> 02:11:36,040 Speaker 3: hit the Nadeer just a couple of months enough. He 2764 02:11:36,080 --> 02:11:38,880 Speaker 3: has an incredible commit signing. People don't people. 2765 02:11:38,640 --> 02:11:40,640 Speaker 2: Nobody makes a good point, They go, wow, she has 2766 02:11:40,680 --> 02:11:45,600 Speaker 2: a real life Amy that's true that lady she us 2767 02:11:45,640 --> 02:11:47,680 Speaker 2: a shark. Well, but that's actually it is one of 2768 02:11:47,680 --> 02:11:51,400 Speaker 2: those like Hollywood shocks. Yes, women, yes, but that is 2769 02:11:51,440 --> 02:11:52,440 Speaker 2: she'll peel your face off. 2770 02:11:52,600 --> 02:11:56,080 Speaker 3: That's in theory though what she did. She's a she's 2771 02:11:56,120 --> 02:11:58,880 Speaker 3: a wrangler, so that's more of a Mike McClintock. All right, 2772 02:11:59,160 --> 02:12:00,640 Speaker 3: But Mike, is that is job? 2773 02:12:01,160 --> 02:12:03,760 Speaker 2: Just would have answered this. Lady's actually good at her job. Yeah, okay, 2774 02:12:03,840 --> 02:12:05,960 Speaker 2: let's move on to the next part. This is a 2775 02:12:06,000 --> 02:12:08,800 Speaker 2: fun one. You get a live, live reaction from me 2776 02:12:09,040 --> 02:12:12,120 Speaker 2: on the ground. This is just about how awful logistics 2777 02:12:12,120 --> 02:12:15,720 Speaker 2: have been here at the DNC, A little bit inside baseball. 2778 02:12:15,760 --> 02:12:18,240 Speaker 2: But honestly, I think enough now at this point that 2779 02:12:18,280 --> 02:12:19,920 Speaker 2: we can show you. So what we're about to show 2780 02:12:19,920 --> 02:12:22,720 Speaker 2: you actually Emily made me do this clip. It's me 2781 02:12:23,080 --> 02:12:26,400 Speaker 2: in front of context. It's like seven seven thirty. I 2782 02:12:26,440 --> 02:12:30,440 Speaker 2: think whenever this happens, there is all these credentialed people, 2783 02:12:30,680 --> 02:12:34,560 Speaker 2: remember credentialed as in cleared months ago to enter the convention. 2784 02:12:34,880 --> 02:12:37,840 Speaker 2: Now they're entering the convention and they are encountering up 2785 02:12:37,880 --> 02:12:41,800 Speaker 2: to two hour lines to get into the venue. And 2786 02:12:42,160 --> 02:12:44,480 Speaker 2: this is not just like people like Parker who we 2787 02:12:44,520 --> 02:12:47,720 Speaker 2: had on our show, right, like young Democrat delegate. We 2788 02:12:47,920 --> 02:12:52,960 Speaker 2: spot multiple VIPs in this line, desperately in the crowd, 2789 02:12:53,040 --> 02:12:56,280 Speaker 2: just waiting to be let into the area so that 2790 02:12:56,360 --> 02:12:58,800 Speaker 2: they can be let into security, so that they can 2791 02:12:58,840 --> 02:13:01,960 Speaker 2: be let into the Primetime is coming up fast, Yeah, 2792 02:13:02,000 --> 02:13:06,560 Speaker 2: Obama is coming. Primetime is literally coming up like imminently, 2793 02:13:06,960 --> 02:13:08,960 Speaker 2: and they're a good hour and a half two hours 2794 02:13:08,960 --> 02:13:11,640 Speaker 2: away from even getting into the arena from the point 2795 02:13:11,680 --> 02:13:14,160 Speaker 2: that you can see, and actually where I am was 2796 02:13:14,200 --> 02:13:16,640 Speaker 2: the midway point of some of these lines. So with 2797 02:13:16,760 --> 02:13:19,320 Speaker 2: all of that being said, let's listen to my first 2798 02:13:19,320 --> 02:13:21,600 Speaker 2: field report for breaking points. Let's take a listen. 2799 02:13:22,600 --> 02:13:23,320 Speaker 8: So here we are. 2800 02:13:23,520 --> 02:13:26,120 Speaker 2: This is literally the line to get into the DNC. 2801 02:13:26,680 --> 02:13:29,720 Speaker 2: In fact, it goes all the way down the street 2802 02:13:29,920 --> 02:13:31,400 Speaker 2: in both directions. 2803 02:13:31,520 --> 02:13:33,200 Speaker 3: It's so bad that I just saw. 2804 02:13:33,120 --> 02:13:38,040 Speaker 2: Jim Messina, Obama's twenty twelve campaign manager, literally in the 2805 02:13:38,080 --> 02:13:40,840 Speaker 2: middle of the scrum. I can see him right here 2806 02:13:40,920 --> 02:13:44,560 Speaker 2: as we speak. Obviously he's fuming at how bad the 2807 02:13:44,640 --> 02:13:47,920 Speaker 2: logistics are here, but a bit of a that's right. 2808 02:13:48,600 --> 02:13:51,120 Speaker 7: He left to go work for the Tories in the UK, 2809 02:13:51,240 --> 02:13:51,840 Speaker 7: so sorry, he. 2810 02:13:51,800 --> 02:13:52,560 Speaker 5: Can't get it right. 2811 02:13:52,600 --> 02:13:56,919 Speaker 2: So clearly, even the VIPs, including the former successful Democratic 2812 02:13:56,960 --> 02:14:00,760 Speaker 2: campaign manager, can barely get into the DNC, which tracks 2813 02:14:01,360 --> 02:14:04,920 Speaker 2: with the horrible logistics that we personally have experienced so far. 2814 02:14:05,000 --> 02:14:07,160 Speaker 2: So that's soccer and Jenny reporting for the from the 2815 02:14:07,200 --> 02:14:10,000 Speaker 2: field for breaking points totally all right, So there you 2816 02:14:10,000 --> 02:14:11,760 Speaker 2: can see. It was funny. Thank you Emily for forcing 2817 02:14:11,800 --> 02:14:13,440 Speaker 2: the mic in my hand and making me do that. 2818 02:14:13,760 --> 02:14:14,720 Speaker 2: But it was funny. 2819 02:14:14,760 --> 02:14:15,800 Speaker 7: Had a career in local news. 2820 02:14:15,840 --> 02:14:18,160 Speaker 2: It was genuinely funny watching. I was like, that's Jim 2821 02:14:18,160 --> 02:14:20,040 Speaker 2: Asina and I see him just standing there. 2822 02:14:19,880 --> 02:14:21,920 Speaker 3: Like this, like in a middle crowd. 2823 02:14:21,920 --> 02:14:24,560 Speaker 2: It's desperate to try and get in in all of 2824 02:14:24,560 --> 02:14:27,720 Speaker 2: these other He's so big, Yeah, exactly part of the 2825 02:14:27,760 --> 02:14:30,160 Speaker 2: reason I saw him and I was like, man, And 2826 02:14:30,200 --> 02:14:32,480 Speaker 2: then we look at the crowds and in both directions 2827 02:14:32,880 --> 02:14:36,000 Speaker 2: around the corner, can we put Michael Tracy's up there. 2828 02:14:36,040 --> 02:14:37,720 Speaker 3: Tracy's been doing a good because it's not like, to 2829 02:14:37,800 --> 02:14:40,600 Speaker 3: be clear, it's not just what we saw in one part, 2830 02:14:40,680 --> 02:14:43,200 Speaker 3: like obviously this at these types of things, there are 2831 02:14:43,440 --> 02:14:46,560 Speaker 3: many different entrances that spread out over a big piece 2832 02:14:46,560 --> 02:14:50,840 Speaker 3: of Chicago. But everyone is encountering this every day. It 2833 02:14:50,920 --> 02:14:53,720 Speaker 3: wasn't just the first day now it's bleeding into the 2834 02:14:53,720 --> 02:14:56,360 Speaker 3: rest of the week. And so this is what Tracy said. 2835 02:14:56,240 --> 02:14:58,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's go. So he's yeah, Michael Tracy 2836 02:14:59,040 --> 02:15:01,600 Speaker 2: here has a similar picture. This is actually later after 2837 02:15:01,600 --> 02:15:03,000 Speaker 2: we talk, so you can look at the time code 2838 02:15:03,080 --> 02:15:06,480 Speaker 2: eight thirty pm. He says, I'm legitimately shocked at how 2839 02:15:06,520 --> 02:15:09,680 Speaker 2: catastrophic the logistics of the DNC are. I am talking 2840 02:15:09,720 --> 02:15:11,560 Speaker 2: to an Illinois state Rep who has just given up. 2841 02:15:11,600 --> 02:15:13,760 Speaker 2: I'm trying to get in. This is horrible, he says, 2842 02:15:14,520 --> 02:15:17,360 Speaker 2: pointing out other state reps in line who are stuck 2843 02:15:17,440 --> 02:15:21,720 Speaker 2: in the endless line to nowhere. Multiple other people reported 2844 02:15:21,720 --> 02:15:25,440 Speaker 2: the exact same thing. Let's see from our old report. 2845 02:15:25,440 --> 02:15:28,280 Speaker 2: Should we talk to about Oh, there were some lines yesterday. 2846 02:15:28,400 --> 02:15:30,200 Speaker 2: We were wondering if that was just a first one. 2847 02:15:30,360 --> 02:15:32,480 Speaker 2: Can you pull up mac from the old rundown that 2848 02:15:32,520 --> 02:15:35,440 Speaker 2: Akela Lacey tweet where she talks about the scene to 2849 02:15:35,480 --> 02:15:39,120 Speaker 2: get into the United Center is absolute chaos. There is 2850 02:15:39,280 --> 02:15:42,120 Speaker 2: line after line. There are hundreds of people waiting to 2851 02:15:42,120 --> 02:15:46,080 Speaker 2: get in one point five hours after programming started. Yeah, 2852 02:15:46,080 --> 02:15:48,040 Speaker 2: look at this, I mean this is crazy. 2853 02:15:48,160 --> 02:15:50,320 Speaker 3: Lines are like outrageous. 2854 02:15:49,840 --> 02:15:52,880 Speaker 2: Exactly, And it's one of those where look, you know, 2855 02:15:52,920 --> 02:15:56,080 Speaker 2: you can forgive one day maybe, but second day it's 2856 02:15:56,080 --> 02:15:57,480 Speaker 2: like the logistics. 2857 02:15:56,920 --> 02:15:59,080 Speaker 3: Are really bad. It was awful too, Mack. 2858 02:15:59,160 --> 02:16:02,360 Speaker 2: You explained to the Chat yesterday about how annoying it 2859 02:16:02,400 --> 02:16:05,400 Speaker 2: was for even for us to get our press credentials. 2860 02:16:05,680 --> 02:16:07,560 Speaker 3: What all of this does tell. 2861 02:16:07,440 --> 02:16:10,440 Speaker 2: Us, at least about how the DNC is set up 2862 02:16:10,520 --> 02:16:14,840 Speaker 2: right now is My only impact on this is I 2863 02:16:14,880 --> 02:16:18,880 Speaker 2: think Kamala's people are breaking the press to the point 2864 02:16:18,920 --> 02:16:21,840 Speaker 2: where if they don't give them something soon, I think 2865 02:16:21,880 --> 02:16:25,520 Speaker 2: they're gonna freak out because the press are They're also 2866 02:16:25,600 --> 02:16:27,640 Speaker 2: the ones stuck in the lines. I saw Tara Palmiery 2867 02:16:27,680 --> 02:16:30,120 Speaker 2: and a few other people who were all stuck in 2868 02:16:30,280 --> 02:16:33,240 Speaker 2: multiple hour lines just trying to cover the damn convention. 2869 02:16:33,720 --> 02:16:37,680 Speaker 2: I read actually that the DNC is charging double the 2870 02:16:37,760 --> 02:16:41,680 Speaker 2: price to the networks for renting out those booths where 2871 02:16:41,680 --> 02:16:44,520 Speaker 2: they're broadcasting from from inside. I mean, guys, we're talking 2872 02:16:44,560 --> 02:16:47,000 Speaker 2: like six figures just to rent out one of these things. 2873 02:16:47,080 --> 02:16:48,600 Speaker 2: Part of the reason we're here at Barstools Studio. 2874 02:16:48,640 --> 02:16:50,480 Speaker 3: By the way, shout out to dog Walk. 2875 02:16:50,760 --> 02:16:52,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you the dog Walk for making sure that 2876 02:16:52,480 --> 02:16:54,720 Speaker 2: we don't just spend one hundred grand just for five days 2877 02:16:54,920 --> 02:16:58,600 Speaker 2: of broadcasting. Then they also have given all of us 2878 02:16:58,959 --> 02:16:59,959 Speaker 2: much fewer passes. 2879 02:17:00,000 --> 02:17:00,520 Speaker 3: Oh my god. 2880 02:17:00,560 --> 02:17:03,280 Speaker 2: Again just to explain like the insanity of all of this. 2881 02:17:03,360 --> 02:17:05,840 Speaker 2: So like we got these press credentials, and even though 2882 02:17:05,840 --> 02:17:08,720 Speaker 2: we have six team members, only three of us are 2883 02:17:08,760 --> 02:17:11,520 Speaker 2: even allowed to enter the arena. Which is different than 2884 02:17:11,959 --> 02:17:12,760 Speaker 2: different than the orens. 2885 02:17:12,760 --> 02:17:15,400 Speaker 3: This is different than Milwaukee. In Milwaukee, you had to 2886 02:17:15,440 --> 02:17:17,680 Speaker 3: have like an arena pass to get into that stuff, 2887 02:17:17,680 --> 02:17:20,680 Speaker 3: but there was tons of other stuff outside the arena. 2888 02:17:20,760 --> 02:17:23,520 Speaker 3: There was media row was outside the arena, there were 2889 02:17:23,600 --> 02:17:25,880 Speaker 3: tons of different things, like most of it was going 2890 02:17:25,920 --> 02:17:29,520 Speaker 3: on outside of the arena. Here, almost everything is going 2891 02:17:29,520 --> 02:17:31,840 Speaker 3: on outside the arena. So it is to your point, 2892 02:17:31,879 --> 02:17:34,720 Speaker 3: breaking the press. We've heard from other outlets that, and 2893 02:17:34,760 --> 02:17:37,320 Speaker 3: we've heard from people who couldn't great credentialed. There are 2894 02:17:37,400 --> 02:17:39,199 Speaker 3: names of people. I can't say it because I didn't 2895 02:17:39,200 --> 02:17:40,879 Speaker 3: ask them permission, but there are names of people that 2896 02:17:40,920 --> 02:17:43,760 Speaker 3: you big names that did not get credentialed. People in 2897 02:17:43,760 --> 02:17:46,560 Speaker 3: independent media that absolutely should have been credentialed that didn't 2898 02:17:46,560 --> 02:17:48,800 Speaker 3: get it. We heard the New York Times had a 2899 02:17:48,800 --> 02:17:50,760 Speaker 3: shockingly small amount of seats. 2900 02:17:50,879 --> 02:17:53,040 Speaker 2: It's not just them too, you know. To the independent point, 2901 02:17:53,040 --> 02:17:55,880 Speaker 2: And this is kind of the corollary to this. If 2902 02:17:55,920 --> 02:17:58,600 Speaker 2: you are Harry Sisson, life is good right now. 2903 02:17:58,640 --> 02:17:58,760 Speaker 8: You know. 2904 02:17:58,800 --> 02:18:00,959 Speaker 2: If you're one of those influences, you have a little 2905 02:18:01,040 --> 02:18:04,039 Speaker 2: DNC handler who follows you around everywhere. They had a 2906 02:18:04,080 --> 02:18:07,200 Speaker 2: custom lounge with wine and cheese and seats. Yeah, we 2907 02:18:07,200 --> 02:18:09,119 Speaker 2: don't even have anywhere to sit whenever we go into 2908 02:18:09,160 --> 02:18:11,840 Speaker 2: the DNC. They've got a little stage that they have 2909 02:18:11,920 --> 02:18:15,320 Speaker 2: erected inside the DNC that we're not allowed to When 2910 02:18:15,360 --> 02:18:18,280 Speaker 2: I go on the floor, I am sitting there being 2911 02:18:18,320 --> 02:18:21,199 Speaker 2: harassed by multiple people who are like, you gotta keep moving. 2912 02:18:21,320 --> 02:18:23,760 Speaker 2: You got to keep moving, by the way, and oh, 2913 02:18:23,800 --> 02:18:25,879 Speaker 2: you've only got fifteen minutes left on the clock where 2914 02:18:26,080 --> 02:18:28,879 Speaker 2: you're allowed to be here on the floor. And it's 2915 02:18:28,879 --> 02:18:30,680 Speaker 2: not just me, it's like people who work at CNN, 2916 02:18:31,080 --> 02:18:33,119 Speaker 2: all these other people who are being trolled like this. 2917 02:18:33,440 --> 02:18:37,040 Speaker 2: Whereas Hassan Piker and Harry and all of these other 2918 02:18:37,440 --> 02:18:40,840 Speaker 2: like TikTokers like guy literally doing dancing moves in the 2919 02:18:41,160 --> 02:18:44,680 Speaker 2: Creator studio, He's allowed on the floor however long you want. So, 2920 02:18:44,760 --> 02:18:46,879 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just saying it's pretty clear where they 2921 02:18:46,879 --> 02:18:49,840 Speaker 2: think that their bread is being buttered. But I do 2922 02:18:49,920 --> 02:18:52,560 Speaker 2: think it will backfire in terms of like, when you 2923 02:18:52,600 --> 02:18:54,920 Speaker 2: treat the press like shit, they're gonna start pressing you 2924 02:18:54,959 --> 02:18:56,760 Speaker 2: a little bit. I mean, you had Dave in here.
