1 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: You are entering the freedom much. There was a Democrat 2 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: debate last night. It was a debacle, but there was 3 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 1: some interesting stuff and I'll tell you about today. You 4 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:20,400 Speaker 1: don't have to watch the debate. Just listen to the 5 00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,680 Speaker 1: buck Sexton Show. Also, a pandemic approaching us shows how 6 00:00:24,720 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 1: concerned should you be? Without a more coming up? This 7 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 1: is the Buck Sexton Show, where the mission or mission 8 00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 1: is to decode what really matters with passionable intelligence. Make 9 00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: no mistake American, you're a great American. Again the Buck 10 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: Sexton Show begins. Remember he's a great guy. No, I 11 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: think that Donald Trump thinks it would be better if 12 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,280 Speaker 1: he's a president. I do not think so. Vladimitt Plutin 13 00:00:57,440 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: thinks that Donald Trumps should be president. On in state, 14 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: and that's why Russia is helping you get Welcome to 15 00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,679 Speaker 1: the Buck s Exit Show, everybody. It was great last night. Man, 16 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: it was like it was like watching two guys at 17 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:14,000 Speaker 1: the retirement home and be like, I'm running Bingo tonight. No, 18 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: I'm running Bingo tonight. Bloomberg and Bernie getting after it 19 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 1: right there, right off the top. Bloomberg with a with 20 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: a low blow on Russia wants you to win the bus. Look, 21 00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: I'll tell you, I challenge you to a I was 22 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: gonna say arm wrestling contest, but I don't know who 23 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,759 Speaker 1: would win that one. Something they'd have to figure it out. 24 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,600 Speaker 1: So I did my duty last night, team. I watched 25 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: and live tweeted the debate, lighting it up obviously on 26 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: the on the Twitter. I should post some of it 27 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,559 Speaker 1: today to a Facebook as well, Facebook dot com slash 28 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: buck Sex and if you do not already follow me there, 29 00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: it's a great way to communicate with me and the 30 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 1: rest of the team and producer Mark Brucer. Mark is 31 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: in there all the time defending the honor of the 32 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: Avengers franchise. I would also say that last night was 33 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 1: the biggest waste of two hours that I think I've 34 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: had in many ways since watching the first two hours 35 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 1: of The Avengers. But I will go back and watch 36 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: the third hour, which I didn't even realize existed because 37 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: I bailed. Here's what you need to know about the 38 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,600 Speaker 1: debate last night, and then we'll get into some of 39 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 1: the specific There were some policy moments here and there, 40 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: but here's what you really need to know. First of all, 41 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: it's a total debacle. These networks are not able to 42 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,919 Speaker 1: put on what they think they can, which is a 43 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: high standard journalistically superior event where we get into all 44 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: the issues. These are TV journalists, I mean, they're they're 45 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: completely replaceable. A lot of them don't even know really 46 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,760 Speaker 1: anything about politics and CBS. It was a total mess 47 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 1: last night, an absolute mess. In fact, if CBS's plan 48 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: was to run a debate so poorly that all the 49 00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: candidates on stage by comparison looked competent, mission accomplished, CBS. 50 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: You can watch the debate last night, you would have 51 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: said to yourself, well, these Democrats probably run things better 52 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 1: than the people that are running this debate, that's for sure. 53 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: It was really overall very JV. The moderators were weak, 54 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: their questions were bad. It's a reminder that really what 55 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: they should do. I mean, I think we should do 56 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 1: this like an all star game in some of the 57 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: sports leagues. We should have people vote. You know, there 58 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: should be some kind of an online poll or some 59 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: some polling company for who in the media space should 60 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: be the moderators, and we should do an open vote. 61 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that's or at least, you know, 62 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: you could do it. Of I don't know, Democrats for 63 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: their prime or whatever it is. But you should then 64 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: also allow it to be streamed by all the networks. 65 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 1: There shouldn't be this one network at a time thing. 66 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: It shows favoritism. I mean, the fact that Fox doesn't 67 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 1: get a Democratic debate just shows what a bunch of 68 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: whimps the Democrats are. It would be an excellent debate, 69 00:03:56,240 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: I promise you, and it would have huge ratings, and 70 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: they have Martha McCallum and Brett bar and probably Chris Wallace. 71 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I already already know who the moderators for 72 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: Democrat debate would be, and they would do an excellent job. 73 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: They would ask questions that aren't unfair. They would ask 74 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: real questions. Last night was just nonsense, a lot of 75 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,880 Speaker 1: wokeness questions. Who's the most woke on the stage, who 76 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: can tell us how they're going to do the most 77 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 1: for you know, minority candidates, even though Joe Biden, by 78 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: the way, constantly tells us that he has done so 79 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: much in his career for minority not minority candid's for 80 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 1: minority voters. You ask him for the specifics, and all 81 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 1: of a sudden he gets very hazy. You asked him 82 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: for the specifics, and it starts to fall apart. Joe Biden. 83 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 1: I was hoping last night somebody would say something about 84 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: the MCNA carta, just so Biden could start with I wrote, 85 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: I wrote that bill because that's what he says about everything. 86 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: I wrote the dang bill. He really didn't. Biden that 87 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: he has been the great hope of the establishment tells 88 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 1: you all you need to know about the state of 89 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: the Democrat establishment right now. Tells you a whole lot. 90 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: Here was some of the I mean, look, I wish 91 00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 1: I could drill down on the major takeaway. I'd like 92 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: to start whenever we have these discussions team about a 93 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: debate like this, I like to start with a thirty 94 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: thousand foot view and then drill down in the specifics. 95 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: The thirty thousand foot view is that the Democrats are 96 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: crazy and that their party has completely gone off the rails, 97 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: that they have unimpressive candidates, that they have policy proposals 98 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 1: that will not work, that they're not operating in the 99 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: realm of reality or math. They don't care about what 100 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 1: we have learned as a country from history, and they 101 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:55,839 Speaker 1: didn't reassure anyone last night. Who if you had questions 102 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 1: about these Democrats last night, if you had any concerns 103 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: about their competent, see in their ability to do what 104 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: is necessary here last night did not make you feel 105 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: any better about any of that. Here, for example, is 106 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,320 Speaker 1: I mean, just to give you I'm saying they're silly. 107 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm saying they're crazy. Well, let me give you some 108 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: examples of this. Joe Biden talking about gun control. They 109 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: got to bring up gun control of Democrat debate, even 110 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 1: though nothing ever happens. It's just a waste of everyone's time. 111 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,480 Speaker 1: States are blue. States are engaged in gun control grabs 112 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: at the federal level. It's been decades. Right, Here's what 113 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: Biden says. Here's his contribution. Mister, I wrote the bill. 114 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,800 Speaker 1: He has to yell at play three. One hundred and 115 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: fifty million people have been killed since two thousand and seven, 116 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: when Bernie voted to exempt the gun manufacture some liability, 117 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 1: more than all the wars, including Vietnam, from that point on. 118 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: You heard that right, one hundred and fifty million people, 119 00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 1: He says, he didn't stumble. It wasn't a misspe. It 120 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: was an one hundred and fifty million, I mean a thousand, No, 121 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:07,400 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty million people, half the population of 122 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 1: the United States, according to Joe Biden, have died in 123 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: gun violence incidents since the year two thousand and seven. 124 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: Does he not hear himself? Is he just so robotic 125 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 1: in the memorization of canned phrases? And has he been 126 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,680 Speaker 1: just so trained by handlers and speech writers that he 127 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 1: doesn't even think about the words that come out of 128 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: his mouth. I'm not am I being unfair? Would you 129 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 1: go on TV if you were trying to be the 130 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 1: leader of the free world and say, you know, thirty 131 00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: thirty thirty billion people a year die in car accidents 132 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: in this country and then just let that hang out there? 133 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 1: You probably I mean thirty I think by it might 134 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: even be fifty, you know, I think thirty thousand's about right. 135 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,679 Speaker 1: Thirty thousand people something like that die in auto related 136 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: accidents every year in the United States. Maybe maybe it's 137 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: twenty to thirty thousand. If you said thirty billion, though, 138 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,520 Speaker 1: I feel like you'd probably correct yourself. We are judging 139 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: these people. They want a tremendous amount of power. They 140 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 1: want power over your lives. They want to be making 141 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: decisions that will affect the economy, that will affect your 142 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: children's future, we should be willing to judge them harshly. 143 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's too old for this. Bernie Sanders is too 144 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: old for this. Mike Bloomberg is too old for this. 145 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: Elizabeth Warren too old for this. And yeah, here we are. 146 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 1: And you'd say, oh, buck, but what about Trump. Trump 147 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: is a dynamo Trump, you know, rally after rally. I mean, 148 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: he's one of the most engaging, energetic public not public, 149 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 1: you know speakers, public performers I've ever seen. They didn't 150 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:53,199 Speaker 1: really think that Trump is lacking a step these days. 151 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: Does he just mumble and meander off into into nothing? No, 152 00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:00,800 Speaker 1: they say, oh, he lies, he exaggerates. He's a salesman, 153 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: but he's a salesman who gets the deal done. He 154 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: doesn't forget where he is. He doesn't forget what you 155 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 1: don't forget what what his job is. So Biden had 156 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:12,920 Speaker 1: a night where also, I don't know why he thinks 157 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: it's a good idea to shout. So let me tell 158 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 1: you this. I wrote the bill, and I did my 159 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: whole life, my whole life, everything with Joe Biden starts 160 00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: my whole life, my whole career. I wrote that I 161 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: did that. This guy is such a poser. It didn't 162 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: He didn't do these things. He's just another senator who 163 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,439 Speaker 1: was voting or his staff, you know, added a paragraph 164 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 1: to some bill past twenty years ago or something. Joe 165 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: Biden's not a leader. And all this talk about how 166 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: he's vice president. I mean, let's be honest, vice president 167 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: stretching back to the very first vice president in the 168 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:49,839 Speaker 1: United States history. Joy, don't tell it, Gentley, don't do 169 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: all that much. We know this, but Biden's shouting about 170 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 1: how he does so much all the time. It's it's 171 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: simply absurd. But if we're going to talk really observed, 172 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 1: we could get into Bernie Sanders on the numbers. This 173 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: was remarkable. The Medicare for all is the primary policy 174 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: proposal of Bernie Sanders. I would note his other policy 175 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 1: proposals are also far left, and that he is, and 176 00:10:19,559 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: people are increasingly waking up to this, a Marxist. He 177 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: is a Marxists. It's not a Denmark style European you know, 178 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 1: big government socialist. He's actually further left than they are 179 00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: on a whole bunch of issues, on all really the 180 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 1: important issues. And but what do we even what do 181 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 1: we even think a Bernie Sanders foreign policy would look like? 182 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: Do we even know? Of course not, But you had 183 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: Bernie when pushed on the cost, and he gets all 184 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: flustered about this, as if it shouldn't matter what the 185 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:57,840 Speaker 1: cost is. When Bernie is pushed on this issue, he 186 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 1: makes up numbers. No, the same way that Biden should 187 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:03,959 Speaker 1: not be able, it should not be able to come 188 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: out of Joe Biden's mouth that one hundred and fifty 189 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: million people in the last decade or so have died 190 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: in gun violence in America. That's crazy talk. This is 191 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: also crazy talk from Bernie Sanders play clip aid producer Mark. 192 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: What the Health in Human Services have said in analyzing 193 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: healthcare costs, what Yale recent Yale study has said is 194 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: that your program would cost some fifty trillion dollars over 195 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: a ten year period. We would continue to pay, in 196 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: some cases ten times more for the same exact prescription drugs. 197 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: What every study out there, conservative or progressive says, Medicare 198 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 1: for all will save money as will cost about forty 199 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: five billion, not sixty trillion. That's right. This is the 200 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: proverbial chocolate cake that will not make you fat eat 201 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: as much of it as you want. There's enough for everybody, 202 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: it will never run out, and you don't have the 203 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,680 Speaker 1: painting for it. That's what Bernie Sanders is offering. Does 204 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,840 Speaker 1: anyone who is an adult who really thinks about this 205 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 1: believe what Bernie Sanders is saying. It's going to save 206 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 1: money to give every American the same healthcare. That's what 207 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: would have Medicare for All means we're all in the 208 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 1: same healthcare plan all of a sudden, which would de 209 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: facto turn all healthcare providers into government employees. You know why, 210 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 1: the government's going to determine what the reimbursement rates are 211 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 1: for Medicare for All, So the government's going to decide 212 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: who's getting money in the healthcare system all of a sudden. 213 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: You know, your hope that if you have to have 214 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,079 Speaker 1: heart surger or if you have to go get cancer treatment, 215 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: and you're gonna go see you know, that's the point 216 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: in life where you want the guy with all the 217 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: fancy degrees in the orgal with all the fancy degrees 218 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: in the wall, and you know, decades of experience and 219 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 1: they're like a superstar in the field and whatever, you know, 220 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 1: whatever you gotta do to get that treatment. If your 221 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 1: life is on the line, No, now you're gonna go in. 222 00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: It'll be like a glorified DMV employee telling you, yeah, 223 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe you've got any biotic resistant bacteria, 224 00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: but you know, maybe it's maybe it's something else. I 225 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: don't know. To go to CBS. Here's a prescription. See 226 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: you later. You had your three minutes are up? Yeah, 227 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,080 Speaker 1: I mean it'll be it'll be free, but that's what 228 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 1: you're looking at. And sure, if you have an ear 229 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 1: infection or you have strep throat, it might be really nice. 230 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 1: You get to go to the local government doctor and 231 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: you know you'll wait about two or three hours in 232 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: the waiting room, but then you know you'll you'll get 233 00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 1: your prescription. But if you if you have chronic back 234 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: pain desperately need to have some kind of spinal surgery 235 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 1: or something, you know, the government I'm sure will give 236 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: you really excellent pain meds. Hopefully you won't become addicted, 237 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: and you know it'll ruin your life, but they'll they'll 238 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,439 Speaker 1: prescribe you in the three minute visit that you're offered 239 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 1: by this Medicare for All program that will now be 240 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 1: the healthcare for the entire country. They'll give you that 241 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: prescription for painkillers, and you know, you'll wait six to 242 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: nine months before you have a surgery where also what 243 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: happens if it goes wrong, you're gonna sue that. You're 244 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: gonna sue the government. Everyone's gonna want to see the government. 245 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: Now that government's got endless, endless pockets. Right, the pockets 246 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: of the government are deeper than anybody else's. They can 247 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 1: print money, So they're gonna have to institute toward reform, 248 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,199 Speaker 1: but it will be the bad kind of towart reform 249 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: because it'll effectively be what prosecutors have in this country, 250 00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: which is a which is qualified immunity. So doctors that 251 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 1: are going to be operating on you because the government's 252 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 1: going to be the one on the hook for you know, 253 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: whatever it is that you're suing them for, because the 254 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 1: government's going to be the one determining the procedures. The 255 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: government's gonna be the ones that are setting the reimbursement rates. 256 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: You know, that's guess what they're gonna say. Now, you 257 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 1: can't keep suiting because they're gonna otherwise you'll just sue 258 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: doctors out of existence all over the place and there 259 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: won't be able to be a market increase in premium 260 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 1: rates for insurance because that's not even gonna matter anymore, 261 00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 1: because doctors won't be able to charge you different fees 262 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 1: for different different fees based on their skill and their 263 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 1: service level. I mean, I know that we're just we're 264 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: just skating around the surface of this disaster right now. 265 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I could spend the whole show just talking 266 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: about all the ways that this is a terrible idea. 267 00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 1: And whenever he brings up Canada, whenever he brings up 268 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: the UK, he brings up these other countries. Yeah, they 269 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:15,200 Speaker 1: also have very large private healthcare systems and that's where 270 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: the rich people go and they really need it. And 271 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: do we want the Canadian economy or do we want 272 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: the American economy? Which country is more the engine of 273 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 1: wealth and with wealth, freedom and prosperity not just for 274 00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: its own people, but for the rest of the world. 275 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,880 Speaker 1: Canadians are lovely people. I'm very fond of them. Canada 276 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: is not a world leader or anything except having water, freshwater. 277 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: It's true. So what exact and probably polar bears bears, 278 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: what are we really thinking we're going to accomplish here? 279 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders is saying this is going to cost forty 280 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: five billion dollars, really giving everybody the right to go 281 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: in buy law and say, hey, treat me. I'm here, 282 00:15:57,160 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: make my medical problems go away. You got no skin 283 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: in the game. No copay, no nothing, because it is 284 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 1: Medicare for all proposal, no co pays, no caut sharing. 285 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: This destroys individual individual ingenuity. It destroys any sense of 286 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 1: a market based healthcare system. It's a disaster. I promise you, look, 287 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: I would love it if I could see the best 288 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: doctors and never pay for healthcare. I have health insurance. 289 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: I try to go to the doctors as infrequently as 290 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: possible because our medical system is already largely ruined by 291 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: regulations written by people like Bernie Sanders. You always hear 292 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 1: about how you know, public school teachers, all the teachers unions. 293 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 1: Your teachers just want to teach. Yeah, doctors actually do 294 00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: want to heal people, but they spend all their time 295 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: fending off lawsuits, doing paperwork, and dealing with the bureaucracy 296 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: because the bureaucracy keeps trying to tell them how to 297 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: do medicine. Because people say, oh, I just I want 298 00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: the state to take care of me and keep me 299 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: safe and warm at night. The state doesn't do that, 300 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 1: that'll do other things to you at night. It won't 301 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: keep you safe and warm. You're in the freedom hunt. 302 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. I will say 303 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 1: it's kind of fun to do the debates these days 304 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 1: because all the conservatives bad. We just sit back and 305 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,679 Speaker 1: it is listening to these democrats. It is like a 306 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 1: mystery science theater vibe when you sit there and hear 307 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: the crazy stuff that they're saying, and you get other 308 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,119 Speaker 1: at all the conservatives I know in media who who 309 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: are reasonably insightful and clever. We're all just trying to 310 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: how do one another all the time with pointing out 311 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: the absurdity that is on display. And I've got to 312 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 1: imagine there are a lot of a lot of real 313 00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 1: intelligent Democrats sitting at home who got to be watching 314 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:39,399 Speaker 1: these debates saying, oh my gosh, what what the heck 315 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: is going on here? What are we doing? What is 316 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: happening with our party? This is crazy because from my 317 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: side of it, as much as I kind of weep 318 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: for the country as a political analyst and at a 319 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 1: radio host, this year is manufik. It is fantastic, It 320 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 1: really is. I I guess that would be fantastique as well. 321 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: It's great man. Maybe he's Democrats. They're giving me plenty 322 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: of material, that is for sure. Thanks for listening to 323 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: the Bus Sesson Show podcasts. Remember to subscribe on Apple podcasts, 324 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 1: the iHeartRadio app, or wherever you get your podcasts. But 325 00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,880 Speaker 1: on this issue of the potential political peril you could 326 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 1: you and Democrats can suffer. In Florida, Congressman Donna Chealelis said, 327 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 1: come on down to Miami and meet with the people 328 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: who have been affected by his regime. Would you be 329 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: willing to do that? And hear them out? Go I 330 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: go all over the country. Of course, Shuber, here is 331 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: a dictatorship. I've said that eighty million clients. But that 332 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 1: does not mean to say as a Bomber pointed out 333 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: that even under a dictatorship, you could teach people to 334 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,480 Speaker 1: read and to write, that you could provide healthcare to 335 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:48,639 Speaker 1: old people. He just doubles down on this because he's 336 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,159 Speaker 1: a Marxist, triples down. He won't back off this. He 337 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: will not accept that it is unacceptable to pick out 338 00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: one minute area of how a regime operated and highlight that, 339 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 1: elevate that as something that we need to hear. Yeah, 340 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 1: of course a dictatorship can teach some people to read. 341 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: Of course a dictatorship can feed some people. You know, 342 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 1: Totalitarian regimes don't want to eliminate all of their subjects, right, 343 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 1: They don't want to kill everybody because they don't have 344 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: a country anymore. But they enslave everybody psychologically and physically, 345 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:33,680 Speaker 1: and they destroy freedom. And freedom is an athema to 346 00:19:33,760 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: a dictatorship, but as an athema to authoritarianism. And Bernie 347 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: Sanders is not making anybody who is concerned about his 348 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 1: totalitarian impulses feel any better. I've read to you about 349 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: what the Cuban regime was like in the sixties and 350 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: the seventies. They've repudiated none of it. By the way, 351 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 1: the Cuban government is still a totalitarian kleptocracy of thugs. 352 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 1: Quite honestly, in a just world, you know, we would 353 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 1: send down the eighty second. I'm not saying we should 354 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:06,360 Speaker 1: do this, but if we were really just seeking justice, 355 00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,320 Speaker 1: you would send down the eighty second airborne and you 356 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: would have trials once we had rounded all of the 357 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: Cuban leadership up, you would have trials for war crimes, 358 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 1: and a lot of them would end up at the 359 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:22,199 Speaker 1: end of a rope or firing squad, whatever we preferred. 360 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 1: The Cuban government is full of murderous, brutal fucks, far worse, 361 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 1: far worse. By the way, you know, we hear so 362 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 1: much about about Putin and partisan who's no friend of 363 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: Putin than Putin such a bad guy. Putin legitimately and 364 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 1: I know we've gotten this whole Russia collusion insanity to 365 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: the point now where you can't even have a normal 366 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 1: discussion about Russia. The Soviet Union, Yeah, obviously enslave hundreds 367 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 1: of millions of people murdered, millions, tens of millions of 368 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: people of sovieting a different story. Russia. Yeah, Putin is 369 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: effectively an authoritarian, no question, Although Mike Bloomberg has questions 370 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:07,479 Speaker 1: about authoritary in China. Will get to that. But if 371 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 1: you were to look at Russian public support for Putin, 372 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: it's high people in Russia and I and you will 373 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 1: not hear there's some other other people in this country 374 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: generally because we're all, oh, Putin is the worst. Yeah, 375 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 1: Putin's a bad guy. He's essentially KGB slash Russian mafia 376 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: running the country. So if we had somebody who was 377 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: ex intel, if I were, this is kind of cool. 378 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 1: Actually sounds like a good good book. If I were 379 00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:40,320 Speaker 1: to have joined some organized crime family and ran it 380 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 1: and then I became the president of the United States, 381 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: that would be something like and see's total control. That's 382 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 1: that's effectively what's going on in Russia. But Putin has 383 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: also presided over what the Russian people believe is a 384 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: restoration of Russian international dignity after I mean, it was 385 00:21:56,920 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: very sad for them for a long time to be 386 00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 1: after the fall of the Wall, completely impoverished and felt 387 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,320 Speaker 1: like they're everything. You know, their world was in free fall. 388 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: There was a lack of a feeling of dignity among 389 00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: the Russian people in the nineteen nineties when okay, now 390 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,560 Speaker 1: they've got freedom, but they don't have and they don't 391 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,760 Speaker 1: have an economy to speak of. Putin has presided over 392 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,199 Speaker 1: the creation of a Russian middle class. Again. See now 393 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 1: people say, oh, Buggy are doing what Bernie does about 394 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 1: about Cuba. No, Putin is not nearly as bad as 395 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 1: Castro and the Castro regime. And you know, Raoul Castro 396 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: has done things. I mean, the Castros are responsible for 397 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 1: the kind of war crimes, as I said, where we 398 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,760 Speaker 1: should if we could round them up and have them executed, 399 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,760 Speaker 1: and that would be fair, that would be just. Now 400 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:46,760 Speaker 1: you might say Putin probably should spend a lot of 401 00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,240 Speaker 1: time in prison. He's definitely had journalists executed. You know, 402 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 1: he's bad, but he's not He's not as bad but 403 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders. Because the Democratic Party right now has gotten 404 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 1: so you know, utterly and completely wrapped up in this 405 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 1: Russia collusion. It's they believe this no matter what the evidence, 406 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,560 Speaker 1: no matter what we can provide them with. Putin is 407 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: really really bad and a scary man. But you know, 408 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: he'll say nice things about Cuba, which is which is 409 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: all I'm trying to say, is that the Cuban regime 410 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: is worse than Putin's government. If you look at the 411 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: totality of what has gone on, right I think the 412 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:25,920 Speaker 1: Cuban regime is in a different category. Putin is bad. 413 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,239 Speaker 1: But people don't want to hear about what's really going 414 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: on in Russia. They just prefer to think of it 415 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 1: as the biggest threat to the United States. Because Hillary 416 00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:38,880 Speaker 1: Clinton lost the twenty sixteen election, China is a much 417 00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 1: bigger threat to America as we know. But Bernie Sanders, 418 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 1: I sit here and I wonder what has befallen this 419 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: country and how we could have reached a point where 420 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders is even a serious consideration for any higher office. 421 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I think Vermont should be a little bit embarrassed, 422 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: quite honestly, that this has been the senator that they've 423 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 1: had for so many years, and he was their only 424 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:09,680 Speaker 1: congressman for a number of years before that. Bernie, of course, 425 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: has the usual Marxist claptrap about bringing working people back 426 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,560 Speaker 1: into the Democratic Party. Play clip six producer mark my 427 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 1: favorability naturally, I believe on the highest up here is 428 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 1: a matter of fact, all right. But the point is, 429 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: the point is the way we are gonna be Trump, 430 00:24:29,119 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 1: which is what everybody Appia wants, is we need a 431 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: campaign of energy and excitement. We need to have the 432 00:24:36,760 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: largest vote to turn out in the history of the 433 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: United States. We need to bring working people back into 434 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. We need to get young people voting 435 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: in a way they have never done before. That is 436 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 1: what our campaign is about. He's a Marxist, He's mobilizing 437 00:24:55,840 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: the youth who don't understand very much about politics. Let's 438 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 1: be honest and claiming that he's going to do so 439 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: much to help workers. You know who workers work for. Corporations, 440 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: people who have enough assets on their own to have 441 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: businesses where they hire people, and yes, even people in 442 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: this country who are billionaires. That is who workers work for. 443 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 1: Do we really think that they will be better off 444 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 1: with Bernie Sanders determining that all of their bosses are 445 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,000 Speaker 1: bad people who don't know what they're doing. There's a 446 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:29,879 Speaker 1: very clear choice that has emerged for Democrats between Sanders 447 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: and Bloomberg. This is the the far left of the 448 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: party versus the more technocratic, such as it is, democrat, elitist, 449 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: limousine liberal wing of the party. And I think you 450 00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 1: gotta figure right now, Bernie Sanders side of this is 451 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: going to be the one that ends up victorious. In fact, 452 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 1: Bloomberg thought that by entering into this contest, he may 453 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: prevent he may actually stop Bernie Sanders from becoming the 454 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,040 Speaker 1: nominee when you look at the numbers in some of 455 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: these states, because he's taking a lot of what you'd 456 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: have to assume or Biden votes. I think that's what 457 00:26:05,560 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 1: Bloomberg is really peeling off. He may be the reason 458 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: that Bernie Sanders marches to the nomination, and that should 459 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: be something that concerns all of us. I said to 460 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,720 Speaker 1: you yesterday, and I think some people were a little surprised, 461 00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 1: and I shared this publicly on Twitter as well. Bernie 462 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 1: Sanders is not even a smart socialist. I really stand 463 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: behind that. I don't think Bernie Sanders is a smart socialist. 464 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 1: There are people who I know who are of the left, 465 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: who are learned, They've read a lot, They're very smart. 466 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 1: They can make sophisticated arguments about socialism. They're wrong, but 467 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 1: they can make sophisticated arguments and they can anticipate where 468 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: the other side is going. There's not a lot of 469 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: them because the primary motivation behind the primary among the 470 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: primary motivations I should say, behind Marxism and socialist thought, 471 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 1: it's the replacement of God of God with the state. 472 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 1: It's also giving people a reason and it gives them 473 00:27:05,920 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: a sense of empowerment. It gives them an argument for 474 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: why they're on the side of good. So it really 475 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: is it's a pseudoscience. Marxism is pseudoscience. They always pretend 476 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: that there's that they can just look at this on 477 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 1: a board and add up how, you know, the arc 478 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: of history and the transition from capitalism into socialism and 479 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: the revolution of the proletariat and I mean all this, 480 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 1: you know, dictatorship of the proletariat and a revolution that 481 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: would bring it about. They think that they can look 482 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: at this on a board and bring it all about. 483 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,719 Speaker 1: But that's nonsense, right, It's pseudoscience. It always has been, 484 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 1: and it really is a religious replacement before it is 485 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,119 Speaker 1: an economic replacement. The economic arguments are just a means 486 00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: of mobilizing people in support of this secular religion, if 487 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:57,160 Speaker 1: you will. That's what Marxism really is all about. Which 488 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: when you start to line this up with Bernie Sanders, 489 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,719 Speaker 1: doesn't it all makes sense now? You know the social 490 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: justice component of everything that he says. You know, it's 491 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: not fair that some people have more than others. That 492 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: is a fundamental central thought for Bernie Sanders and for 493 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 1: Marxists for as long as this has been a theory. 494 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: It's just not fair. And if we have to pull 495 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 1: down people who have more so that people who have 496 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 1: less feel better, and we'll call that justice. We're willing 497 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: to do that, but to do that, you always have 498 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:29,240 Speaker 1: to use a very heavy hand of government. You have 499 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,959 Speaker 1: to empower the state well beyond what the founders had 500 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,320 Speaker 1: in mind in this country. And that's why Bernie Sanders 501 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:41,080 Speaker 1: is in fact fundamentally Unamerican in his beliefs. Is this 502 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: is the big problem that the Democrats face. This is 503 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: why putting a socialist forward as your primary candidate's going 504 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: to be an issue that I think will continue to 505 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:54,520 Speaker 1: come back and haunt them long afterwards. Bernie Sanders, of 506 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 1: course claims that he is not radical. Play a play 507 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:01,280 Speaker 1: nineteen producer mark misconception, and you're hearing it here tonight. 508 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: This is the ideas I'm talking about a radical. They're 509 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: not in one form or another. They exist in countries 510 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: all over the world. Healthcare is a human right. We 511 00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 1: have the necessity, the moral imperative to address the existential 512 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: threat of climate change. Of the countries are doing that. 513 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: We don't need more people in jail. This proportionally African 514 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: American than any other country on Earth. Not a radical idea. 515 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: All countries are different, Bernie. They have different histories, different 516 00:29:35,040 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 1: rule of law, different individual freedom. I mean, what is 517 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:42,480 Speaker 1: he even saying? This sounds good? This sounds good because 518 00:29:42,520 --> 00:29:44,720 Speaker 1: he's a demagogue. I mean, he's a guy who spread 519 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: his whole life just repeating the stuff. Any of this 520 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:50,600 Speaker 1: is people in college they read some Gnam Chomsky and 521 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: America is not so great. It's actually pretty terrible. And 522 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 1: look at all these other great countries. Forget about the 523 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: bad stuff that they've done. I mean, this is really 524 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 1: just a moral relativism that the people that adopt this 525 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 1: think elevates them. And I've always said this that conservatives 526 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 1: just patriots. We could say that patriots take a tremendous 527 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 1: pride in being American. The left in this country has 528 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: always taken pride in thinking that they're better than America, 529 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,200 Speaker 1: and that informs a lot of their thinking, a lot 530 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:21,920 Speaker 1: of the approaches that they take on policy issues, particularly 531 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 1: on foreign policy, but on policy issues more broadly. His 532 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 1: ideas aren't radical, then why has the Democratic Party adamantly 533 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: refused to adopt them for the last oh, I don't know, 534 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 1: fifty years or so, let's just say whenever it has 535 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,400 Speaker 1: come up, and it's been coming up longer than that. 536 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 1: You know, there was an American Communist Party USA CPUSA 537 00:30:44,560 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: was a real thing. There were socialists in this country, 538 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 1: stretching back to the rise of socialism in Europe, right, 539 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 1: And there's a whole history that don't teach in school. 540 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: People don't learn about this. They don't understand that there 541 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 1: were not just communist infiltrations during the Soviet era of 542 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: the United States and of the United States government, but 543 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 1: there were journalists and academics and even politicians in America 544 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,520 Speaker 1: who were well known who were open socialists and felt 545 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 1: a tremendous kinship to the great socialist power that was 546 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union. But that was a real fight. I mean, 547 00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,440 Speaker 1: we have been having this debate stretching back to really 548 00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: the fall of monarchies in Europe and the fall of 549 00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 1: the old and the Ncien regime, if you will, the 550 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 1: old order of things. After the First World War, you 551 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: had the Soviet Revolution nineteen seventeen October Revolution. All of 552 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 1: a sudden, the Soviet Union adopts and there's a very 553 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 1: complicated series of processes that led to this. But the 554 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 1: Soviet Union becomes the primary socialist power in the world. 555 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: Remember the United Soviet Socialist Republics right USSR. People always 556 00:31:51,480 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: seemed to forget about this socialism. Then we throw the 557 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 1: communism label around with the Soviets. The Soviets thought of 558 00:31:57,480 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 1: themselves as socialists, and communism is just a flavor, it's 559 00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,480 Speaker 1: just a branch of socialism. It has to do with 560 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:10,280 Speaker 1: the implementation of it, the ideas, the values. You know, Lenin, 561 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: I've told you the original, the very first Soviets in 562 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: the in the form of Lenin and Stalin. Joseph Jugashvili 563 00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,640 Speaker 1: called himself Coba in the early days, which I always 564 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 1: thought was interesting, and if you've watched Planet of the Apes, 565 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 1: that's why the main bad guy Ape in Planet of 566 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,880 Speaker 1: the Apes Coba. It's a homage I think to Stalin 567 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 1: and the rise of authoritarianism. And then referred to himself 568 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 1: in a letter as Stalin men of steel in Russian. 569 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: But they thought of themselves as social democrats. That's what 570 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: they called themselves. So you'll see that they keep changing 571 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:53,400 Speaker 1: the terms they keep but ultimately that that foundation of 572 00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: pseudoscience rooted in envy. I mean that is that is 573 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: that the way that Marxism is built. Bernie Sanders believes 574 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: in that. Bernie Sanders is somebody who has always believed 575 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: in that, and he is appealing to a very dark 576 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: part of human nature. That instead of trying to allow 577 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 1: people to elevate themselves and encourage everyone to elevate themselves 578 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,720 Speaker 1: and put in place the best possible system to do that, 579 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders wants to go around like that game that 580 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: we've all played with the mallet, where you hit the 581 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 1: gophers on the head. You know, too much money. Billionaire 582 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:28,280 Speaker 1: Boom hit him with the mallet. Too much money. Millionaire 583 00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: Boom hit him with the mallet. That's the guy who 584 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 1: wants to be the next leader of the free world. 585 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 1: I think that's a bad idea. You're in the freedom hunt. 586 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. But it's easier 587 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: to make when that Democratic candidate embraces the title of 588 00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 1: socialists and doesn't refute it. And the truth of the 589 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: matter is Bernie Sanders is not a socialist. I mean, 590 00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: if you look at up in the dictionary, he's not 591 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: calling for, you know, the society own the means of 592 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,920 Speaker 1: production and all of that stuff. Ah, here we go. 593 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: What have I've been telling you? David Axeot over at 594 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,080 Speaker 1: CNN doing what we knew they would do. I mean, 595 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: he's not really a social it's not really socialism. He 596 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: calls himself on a socialist. This reminds me of Democrats 597 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:16,560 Speaker 1: with the Islamic state. It's not Islamic and it's not 598 00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 1: a state. I don't think they get to determine that 599 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 1: on behalf of isis everyone obambi he's doing sist in 600 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: calling it an isol It was just pedantry. It was ridiculous. 601 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:32,479 Speaker 1: It was a pedantic, nonsense move. This is socialism, folks. 602 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders is a socialist. You don't get to say 603 00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 1: we want Denmark style socialism and then say, oh, but 604 00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: we're not really socialists. They just keep changing the definition. 605 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 1: In fact, we already have a fair amount of socialism 606 00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 1: in America. That's part of the problem. The public school 607 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 1: system is in fact a form of socialism. Medicare is 608 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: a form of socialism. And you start looking a lot 609 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 1: of these programs, folks, they are socialized components of the 610 00:34:57,239 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: US economy. And I just have to though. They're gonna 611 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: try everything, including a guy who gets up every day 612 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 1: and screams in microphones, Oh, I'm a democratic socialist. You're 613 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:09,960 Speaker 1: gonna have the media apparatus be like, I mean, he's 614 00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: not really a socialist though, I mean, you know what 615 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,919 Speaker 1: I mean. He's gonna say all that stuff, But he's 616 00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: not really a socialist. Oh no, he is. He is 617 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:22,160 Speaker 1: most certainly a socialist. So let's all just put that 618 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 1: in our pipe and smoke it as we determined who 619 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 1: we're going to vote for this election.

It was thirtie and it was seventeen. That's 623 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: an incredible shrinking price. Tech at some point has said 624 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 1: is it is unknowable to even see what the price 625 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: tech would be. Now they're a new numbers card. I'll 626 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 1: tell you exactly what it adds up to. It adds 627 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,360 Speaker 1: up to four more years of Donald Trump. Kevin McCarthy 628 00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: is a Speaker of the House and the inability to 629 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: get the Senate into Democratic hands. The time has come 630 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: for us to stop acting like the presidency is the 631 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 1: only office that matters. Not only is this a way 632 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 1: to get Donald Trump reelected, you got a House to Worria, 633 00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:06,279 Speaker 1: you got a Senate to Warrior, and this is this 634 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,680 Speaker 1: is really important. Look, if you want to keep the 635 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 1: House in Democratic handcer, you might want to check with 636 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 1: the people who actually turned the House Blue forty Democrats 637 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,240 Speaker 1: who are not running on your platform. They are running 638 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: away from your platform as fast as they possibly can. 639 00:36:24,080 --> 00:36:28,120 Speaker 1: Mayor Pete scoring a big hit there last night. Now, 640 00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,160 Speaker 1: Mayor Pete's not going to be president. I don't even 641 00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: think he's really a serious vice presidential candidate, but he 642 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:34,840 Speaker 1: is now going to be. He's a Democrat figure that 643 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 1: you will see and hear more of in the years, 644 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: probably in the decades ahead. His point about Bernie Sanders 645 00:36:42,360 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 1: in the damage that will be done to down ballot 646 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 1: candidates is a serious one. That's a that's a real consideration. 647 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: Democrats would be wise to pay some attention to what 648 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 1: he is saying here, but I don't think that they 649 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: really will. Mayor Pete also he thinks that every time 650 00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm he has an opportunity to speak, it has to 651 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: be a speech, and he's wrong about that. You can 652 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:09,520 Speaker 1: just speak like a normal person, doesn't have to always 653 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 1: be well when we bring together the country and unite 654 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,239 Speaker 1: in the glory of a wonderful future of hope and 655 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,000 Speaker 1: thinking about how we can do that uniting and hope 656 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: and things, and you just be like, no, man, I 657 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:26,320 Speaker 1: didn't like the movie, you know, what I mean, you 658 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: can just you can just respond like a normal person. 659 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:30,440 Speaker 1: It is one of the things that we take for 660 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 1: granted about Trump that he has broken down the old 661 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: established format of you have to speak to people when 662 00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 1: you're a politician like you're some weird political robot who's 663 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 1: not a normal person. You have to use these canned 664 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 1: phrases and everything has to be bringing it back to, 665 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 1: you know, your key talking point. Now you can also 666 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:54,600 Speaker 1: just be like, yeah, you know, I like cheeseburgers. You 667 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: can do that as a politician. You're allowed to do 668 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 1: that now. Or you can say, yeah, that guy in 669 00:37:58,280 --> 00:37:59,920 Speaker 1: the back who works for seeing An he's a jerk. 670 00:38:00,680 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: You're allowed to do that. You're allowed to speak the 671 00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 1: way that people speak, which I think is a great innovation. 672 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 1: You know, the president when he does as stated he 673 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: address me, there are times when the presentation should have 674 00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: a little more pomp and circumstance around it. But as 675 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 1: a general matter, I prefer having a president who is 676 00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:21,800 Speaker 1: just going to talk the way that people talk. And 677 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:28,399 Speaker 1: that's a new that's a new thing to be sure. Now, 678 00:38:29,080 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: oh wait, before before I well, there's the other Democrats 679 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 1: out there, including from the Obama administration that I think 680 00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:41,440 Speaker 1: are watching this and recognizing what's going to happen. Bernie 681 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 1: Sanders is a huge risk, to be sure, for the 682 00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,720 Speaker 1: Democrat Party because if if Biden runs against Trump and loses, 683 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: you will have essentially the Democrat Party making the same 684 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 1: arguments in the next election. And you know, just they 685 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:00,680 Speaker 1: hate Trump, Russia, Trump's corrupt, all the same stuff. If 686 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders loses, they're going to have no one to 687 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: blame but themselves for running a crazy candidate on a 688 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 1: crazy platform. So there's additional risk for running Bernie versus 689 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:15,880 Speaker 1: anyone else against Trump. Even Elizabeth Warren Causa Lush her 690 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:20,239 Speaker 1: birth warrens Or as much as she was ready to go, 691 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: she was on the war path against Bloomberg and the 692 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:28,239 Speaker 1: last debate, and this time she wanted to tell she 693 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:31,840 Speaker 1: thinks she's folksy and relatable. The reality of Elizabeth Warren 694 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 1: is that she is sanctimonious and condescending to all normal 695 00:39:35,120 --> 00:39:38,880 Speaker 1: Americans who understand that, which is why she does so 696 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,800 Speaker 1: well with the media but does not do well outside 697 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: of the bluest blue coastal corridors, because when she does 698 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: the whole you know, my daddy was my daddy was 699 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 1: a coal miner, or it wasn't a coal mine or 700 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 1: whatever it was. My my daddy was a male. Now 701 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:54,959 Speaker 1: that's well, she always talks about her daddy. I forget 702 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,000 Speaker 1: what it was like, a truck driver or something, you know, 703 00:39:57,040 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 1: a normal person job, you know, a respectable job. But 704 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 1: she tells this story because it was Kasick. Who everything was? 705 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 1: You know, you know my dad was a mailman. Okay, 706 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 1: we get it. We've heard it a million times. Who 707 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: kai among the most surly and uncharismatic politicians I've ever 708 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,800 Speaker 1: had the misfortune of interviewing. I will tell you I 709 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 1: was not not a Kasick person at all, never was, 710 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,480 Speaker 1: never will be. But holiciap with Warren. She tells the 711 00:40:26,600 --> 00:40:31,160 Speaker 1: story of bringing herself up in Ohio. I'm my ma 712 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:34,600 Speaker 1: Cherokee heritage and in the Midwest. And let me keep 713 00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: in mind, she ran to the Democrat power structure as 714 00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:39,480 Speaker 1: fast as she could, lied about who she was to 715 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,000 Speaker 1: get in there, and lied about who she was to 716 00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:43,120 Speaker 1: get at the University of Pennsylvania and Ivy League school 717 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: and then get into Harvard I mean teach at Harvard Law. 718 00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 1: Now she's worth like seven to ten million dollars she's Oh, 719 00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 1: but I'm just I'm just like you. It's a total fraud. 720 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: It's total phony. Pretends to care so much about Main 721 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:04,520 Speaker 1: Street and the big Wall Street banks. She's really she 722 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 1: didn't have anything particularly worthwhile to say last night. I 723 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:12,320 Speaker 1: think she had a bad as the debate when she 724 00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: had a bad night. M but oh Pete boodha judge, 725 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,399 Speaker 1: I want to get back to him for a second. See, 726 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,600 Speaker 1: we were trying to break this down for you. He 727 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 1: had another look. He is a guy who sounds like 728 00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 1: he's always in the midst of his McKinsey consulting interview, 729 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 1: and he did it. There was a moment last night 730 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 1: where they asked for the greatest misconception about you, and 731 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:34,600 Speaker 1: it was like Mayor Pete's version was you know that 732 00:41:34,719 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 1: I'm too unflappable. That's like when someone asks you at 733 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 1: a job interview, priest of Mark, you ever done this? 734 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:42,320 Speaker 1: So I'm never asked you. But first was a stupid question. 735 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:44,800 Speaker 1: So the people who ask this in job interview somebody 736 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 1: should you know, smack him upside the head. But people 737 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: still do. Have you ever had the what's your biggest weakness? 738 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:51,920 Speaker 1: In a job interview question? You ask me that No, 739 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 1: I didn't. I know he didn't know I was about 740 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,600 Speaker 1: I was about to flip this table and lose my mind. 741 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:58,960 Speaker 1: I would never ask that question. I've gotten that question. Yeah, 742 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: did you remember what you said? Don't? It's the dumbest 743 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,440 Speaker 1: question in the world, because it's sort of like being 744 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:05,760 Speaker 1: on a first date, which you know, there's similarities between 745 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 1: a first date and a job interview in terms of 746 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 1: your pre you're presenting, you're being judged. Feel like on 747 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: a first date if a girl was just like, you know, 748 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,800 Speaker 1: what's the worst thing about you answer that question? You 749 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 1: gotta find that out, o games. I'm trying to hide that, yeah, exactly, 750 00:42:21,320 --> 00:42:23,240 Speaker 1: and you'll figure it out on your own, there, sweetness, 751 00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: you know like it doesn't it doesn't need to be 752 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: told upfront. But because I've got I'll love the the 753 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:32,080 Speaker 1: usual way people do this, as they say, Um, I 754 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: take too much work on I share the credit too fast, 755 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: like work too hard? These humble brags. I'm sure, Yeah, 756 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 1: Mayor I worked too hard. I make other people look 757 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:42,759 Speaker 1: back because I work too hard, and then I feel 758 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 1: guilty about it. Mayor, Pete, are those I'm too unflappable? 759 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 1: I'm I'm too cool under pressure, you know. But he 760 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,440 Speaker 1: was right about one thing, which is that if you're 761 00:42:51,440 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 1: talking about what Russia is trying to accomplish in this election, 762 00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 1: sewing chaos is definitely very high on the list. Play 763 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,719 Speaker 1: play twenty one please, I'll tell you what the Russians want. 764 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,200 Speaker 1: They don't have a political party. They want chaos, and 765 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,000 Speaker 1: chaos is what is coming our way. I mean, look, 766 00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 1: if you think the last four years has been chaotic, divisive, toxic, exhausting, 767 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 1: imagine spending the better part of twenty twenty with Bernie 768 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:23,080 Speaker 1: Sanders versus Donald Trump. Think about what that will be 769 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:29,399 Speaker 1: like for this country. And meanwhile, folks at home, from 770 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:31,879 Speaker 1: South Carolina to South Bend are trying to figure out 771 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:35,359 Speaker 1: what any of this means for us. Because it's right 772 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:38,759 Speaker 1: that there is a progressive majority, an American majority that 773 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:41,920 Speaker 1: wants to see real change, wants to see wages go 774 00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,719 Speaker 1: up and go up faster than the cost of health 775 00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 1: and saving for retirement. But also here's a majority of 776 00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,919 Speaker 1: the American people who I think right now just want 777 00:43:50,920 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 1: to be able to turn on the TV, see their 778 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 1: president and actually feel their blood pressure go down a 779 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: little bit instead of up. Through the roof Mayor Pete's like, 780 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 1: I'm super chill vote for me. It's a long way 781 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 1: to go. There is an underlying truth here, and that 782 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: is if the Democrats weren't so ideologically driven and so 783 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,160 Speaker 1: emotionally invested against Trump, the clear lane that they have 784 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 1: would be to do ah what would essentially be a 785 00:44:19,239 --> 00:44:23,160 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton style triangulation here and say we want to 786 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 1: we want to do the things that Trump is, the 787 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: things that are going well in the economy. We're going 788 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:30,040 Speaker 1: to continue. We're gonna bring the country together. We're gonna 789 00:44:30,080 --> 00:44:32,479 Speaker 1: work together. We're gonna reach across the aisle. We're gonna 790 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,640 Speaker 1: come up with solutions. We're gonna heal the divide in 791 00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: this nation. What was How did Obama forget about how 792 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:39,439 Speaker 1: Obama governed? I know a lot of you talking about 793 00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 1: blood pressure rising, forget about how Obama governed. Remember how 794 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 1: Obama ran for office. You know the slogan hope and change, 795 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,560 Speaker 1: and it was all bringing us together. And you knows 796 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna merge together. We're gonna love draw, We're gonna 797 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: be amazing, We're gonna be fand testing, We're all gonna 798 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:58,800 Speaker 1: whole house or we're gonna be friends, and that was 799 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:03,160 Speaker 1: the way that he managed to crush two Republican presidential opponents. 800 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 1: Now he got very lucky with the financial downturn and 801 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 1: all the rest of it. But the messianic uniter role. 802 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:16,080 Speaker 1: If the Democrats had someone who was charismatic, that would 803 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 1: be the real lane. They really only have two options. 804 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 1: You only have two options against Trump scorched earth, socialist lunacy, 805 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,360 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders, what are you talking about. It's not just 806 00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 1: you know, lighten a few forest fires. Or the other 807 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 1: alternative would be to bring someone forward who is charismatic 808 00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,040 Speaker 1: and poses as a uniter while trying to get us 809 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: to that socialist future. Right, the head fake Democrats so 810 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:49,680 Speaker 1: effectively stretching back for as long as I've been able 811 00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 1: to pay attention to the news, pretend to be one 812 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:54,879 Speaker 1: thing to get votes, and then govern a different way 813 00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:58,839 Speaker 1: when they're in power, and that option, if they were 814 00:45:58,880 --> 00:46:01,080 Speaker 1: really looking to be able to fee Trump, I think 815 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 1: that would be the much more realistic path, much better 816 00:46:04,360 --> 00:46:07,759 Speaker 1: path for them. Essentially, put someone forward who's a good salesperson, 817 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 1: who's charismatic, and who lies about what Democrats want. That's 818 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 1: what Biden was supposed to be for them. But he's 819 00:46:15,320 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 1: not good enough at it. That's what Bloomberg they're hoping now. Well, no, 820 00:46:18,840 --> 00:46:22,320 Speaker 1: Bloomberg's just supposed to buy it. I mean he actually 821 00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 1: said last night when they're talking about congressional race, He's like, 822 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 1: I bought that that should be Bloomberg's twenty twenty bumper sticker. 823 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 1: I bought that. Whatever it is, doesn't matter. I bought that. 824 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,759 Speaker 1: And this is what you see the Democratic Party doing 825 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 1: right now. They've had this choice between trying to put 826 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: forward someone who will unite the party versus trying to 827 00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:46,399 Speaker 1: have somebody who's just going to divide it, I'm sorry, 828 00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 1: unite the country versus somebody who's going to further exacerbate 829 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 1: the division. And they've just gone. They've gone with the 830 00:46:52,960 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 1: craziest left wing loon they can possibly find. And they 831 00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:00,440 Speaker 1: wonder why. There are a lot of people who have 832 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,279 Speaker 1: been in politics for a long time who're watching this thing. 833 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 1: Sank Democrats, stop being crazy. You're out of your minds. 834 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,799 Speaker 1: Who knows how this is really going to shake out, 835 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 1: But it's gonna be. This is gonna be the best 836 00:47:13,000 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 1: year ever to cover American politics. That is a promise 837 00:47:16,040 --> 00:47:17,680 Speaker 1: that I can make to you and I'm excited about it. 838 00:47:20,120 --> 00:47:23,120 Speaker 1: You're in the Freedom Hunt. This is the Buck Sexton 839 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:30,479 Speaker 1: Show podcast. Well, you're right. The economy is doing really 840 00:47:30,520 --> 00:47:33,360 Speaker 1: great for people like mister Bloolberg and all the billionaires 841 00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:39,120 Speaker 1: in the last three years, last three years, billionaires in 842 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:42,280 Speaker 1: this country sort an eight hundred and fifty billion dollars 843 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,239 Speaker 1: increase in their wealth. But you know what, to the 844 00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:48,600 Speaker 1: ordinary American things are not so good. The question you 845 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: might have thought was what does Bernie Sanders think about billionaires? 846 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 1: You know what? The question was, what should well, what 847 00:47:54,080 --> 00:47:56,279 Speaker 1: should you make of the really low unemployment rate under 848 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,160 Speaker 1: President Trump? And why should we think that you'd be 849 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,839 Speaker 1: better at this? Bernie Sanders, I've been saying, not even 850 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 1: a good socialist. Let's bring in David Harsani. He's a 851 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 1: friend of the show. He writes over a National Review. 852 00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:08,520 Speaker 1: He's doing great stuff on National review dot com with 853 00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:12,200 Speaker 1: regard to Bernie Sanders defensive authoritarian regimes and how crazy 854 00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,919 Speaker 1: it is. David, what do you think of I wanted 855 00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:16,520 Speaker 1: to just run with this premise for a second. I 856 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:19,120 Speaker 1: don't even think Bernie Sanders is a learned socialist. I 857 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,719 Speaker 1: think he's just like a street corner demagogue. On socialism. 858 00:48:23,200 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 1: I don't know about that. I think he's just trying 859 00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 1: to find a way to talk about it without sounding 860 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,000 Speaker 1: like a crazy leftist that he is and that he's 861 00:48:30,040 --> 00:48:32,120 Speaker 1: been forever. I mean, I don't know how learned he is, 862 00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:35,320 Speaker 1: but I know that he's you know, he's ridiculous and 863 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 1: lying about how lying about the last forty five years 864 00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 1: and how the last three years, and lies about everything 865 00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: about how Americans are doing better. I mean, by almost 866 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: any standard, American life is better now. I mean, but 867 00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:49,839 Speaker 1: if I and I know that we could never really 868 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:51,480 Speaker 1: find this out, of course he would say yes. I mean, 869 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: do you think that Sanders has he read Marks Angles, 870 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: has he read Bakhudin as he? I mean, do you 871 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 1: think you think that he actually understands the philosophical roots 872 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: of the ideology that he's now trying to foist upon America? 873 00:49:02,600 --> 00:49:05,799 Speaker 1: Or does he just understand the slogans. I don't think 874 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 1: he's a scholar or anything. But I'm pretty sure that 875 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,000 Speaker 1: probably when he was young, you probably picked up you know, 876 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 1: maw or Marx or and read into it and dabbled. 877 00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,000 Speaker 1: I mean, it's such nonsense in general that I don't 878 00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 1: think you can really be learned about it because it 879 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense and it's always sort of flexible, as 880 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,480 Speaker 1: you hear. But do you think he really believed? But 881 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 1: you think he really believes it, I guess this is 882 00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:26,400 Speaker 1: an even more important question. Is he a true believer? 883 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,160 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, yes, I think so. I mean, listen, 884 00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 1: growing up, whether I did in New York, I knew 885 00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 1: people like him. I mean, no one took them seriously. 886 00:49:33,400 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 1: It's like your raging commie uncle, you know what I mean, 887 00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 1: and you know your red diaper baby people like that. 888 00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:41,880 Speaker 1: He is one of them. I recognize it. I mean, 889 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:44,400 Speaker 1: he you know, that's why he has nice things to 890 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,720 Speaker 1: say about the Vietcong or or Castro or or Tega. 891 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: That's who he is. I really believe that. I mean, 892 00:49:50,840 --> 00:49:52,759 Speaker 1: but you know, he's asked a question about low unemployment 893 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:54,879 Speaker 1: and he runs off on this rant about billionaires again, 894 00:49:55,080 --> 00:50:00,160 Speaker 1: and this is farcical. Oh. I mean, basically he the 895 00:50:00,200 --> 00:50:02,360 Speaker 1: inequality card, right, I mean, that's what he needs to 896 00:50:02,440 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 1: rely on. He can't say the economy is actually the 897 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:08,399 Speaker 1: economy is terrible because it's nonsense. Most normal personal look 898 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 1: outside and see that that's not true. Obviously, there are 899 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,359 Speaker 1: always some people who are suffering, but there aren't enough 900 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:15,759 Speaker 1: people suffering from TAC Like an actual, you know, full 901 00:50:15,800 --> 00:50:19,719 Speaker 1: blown socialist, he has to rely on targeting millionaires. You know, 902 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,719 Speaker 1: he is about class. He cares about class differences, and 903 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:24,160 Speaker 1: that's what he's going to rely on. And no one 904 00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 1: likes a billionaire, right, So that's this talking point over 905 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:28,440 Speaker 1: and over again. I want to get into how we 906 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 1: got here where a socialist looks like he's going to 907 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 1: be the Democrat. I mean, in a sense, yeah, I 908 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:35,680 Speaker 1: like to poke fun of the Democrats for how I'm 909 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,719 Speaker 1: saying this is, but it's also an America problem, and 910 00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,040 Speaker 1: I do want to keep that in mind that we've 911 00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:41,759 Speaker 1: come to this point as a country where this is 912 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: even being seriously considered. But first, I mean, just anything 913 00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:46,839 Speaker 1: for you last night and the debate him. The big 914 00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:48,640 Speaker 1: takeaway that most people had was that it was a 915 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:51,279 Speaker 1: terrible debate with bad questions, and we didn't learn anything new. 916 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,279 Speaker 1: At least that was what I saw. What you did 917 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:54,800 Speaker 1: you have anything that you thought, okay, well that was 918 00:50:54,840 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 1: worthwhile or that's a reminder of something that at least 919 00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:01,480 Speaker 1: we should see. No, I thought that to me, it 920 00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,839 Speaker 1: was terrible. I think we learned anything. Maybe we learned 921 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 1: that Sanders is actually not going to be great when 922 00:51:07,280 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 1: someone's full blown, you know, attacking him, you know, just 923 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,799 Speaker 1: full frontal attack on him. I think he's not going 924 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,480 Speaker 1: to react well. And these people who he's around rarely 925 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 1: have attacked him for his actual ideas being crazy. It's 926 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,799 Speaker 1: more like, oh, we haven't evolved to that yet. People 927 00:51:22,800 --> 00:51:25,960 Speaker 1: aren't ready for that yet. Well, that's not what Trump's 928 00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,000 Speaker 1: gonna do. Trump's gonna call him acami or whatever he 929 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:30,440 Speaker 1: comes up with, and he's going to constantly call him that. 930 00:51:30,520 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 1: He's gonna have to defend it. Do you have concerns? 931 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 1: You know, we had we had Ram Emmanuel before. I 932 00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,279 Speaker 1: think we played a sound by from We've had all 933 00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,359 Speaker 1: these different Democrats now, I mean David Axelrod I love 934 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 1: because he comes out and says, Bernie Sanders is not 935 00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 1: a socialist. So we know that that's going to be 936 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,279 Speaker 1: a thing, right that the guy who walks around saying 937 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,279 Speaker 1: nothing but I'm a socialist, We're gonna be told he's 938 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: not a socialist because you know, up is down and 939 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:54,000 Speaker 1: down is up. But the Democrats that are worried that 940 00:51:54,080 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 1: this is going to lead to not just a presidential loss, 941 00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 1: but a possible electoral wipe out across the board. How 942 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:02,560 Speaker 1: would you gauge your confidence all because I do remember 943 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:05,440 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen with Trump, everybody thought Hillary was going to 944 00:52:05,480 --> 00:52:08,279 Speaker 1: win pretty much. No, I'm not one of the people 945 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 1: who thinks that Bernie is going to lose for sure. 946 00:52:10,320 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 1: I'm not one of the people who thinks that that 947 00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 1: it's going to translate into you know, sweeps for the Republicans. 948 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,839 Speaker 1: In fact, I think people, especially when it comes to Trump. 949 00:52:17,880 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 1: Obviously I was wrong about that election, But more than that, 950 00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: I think people compartmentalize who they vote for, and they 951 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 1: can treat Bernie as his own thing, and just as 952 00:52:27,120 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 1: they treat Trump as his own thing. You have a 953 00:52:29,480 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 1: lot of Republicans, you know, with bigger vote margins and 954 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:35,800 Speaker 1: in some states than than Trump had. And you have 955 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,280 Speaker 1: a governor here in Maryland for instance, who is a Republican, 956 00:52:38,400 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with Trump. So I'm not I'm 957 00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:43,000 Speaker 1: not sold on that idea. No, I am sold on 958 00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:45,360 Speaker 1: the idea that Bernie is a real socialist. Just because 959 00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:48,160 Speaker 1: a person can't get done what he wants done does 960 00:52:48,239 --> 00:52:50,360 Speaker 1: not mean that that's not what he is. You know, 961 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:52,560 Speaker 1: he just think where he knows. Listen, he can't say 962 00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: we're going to nationalize every industry because it's impossible. So instead, 963 00:52:55,920 --> 00:52:57,799 Speaker 1: you know, he does it a different way. He does 964 00:52:57,840 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 1: it incrementally. He's a socialist. Yeah, I mean, I'm kind 965 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:03,520 Speaker 1: of amazed we're going to see this. We're also going 966 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 1: to have a large chunk of the Democrat corporate media 967 00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,840 Speaker 1: that has been very cautious and or hustle to Bernie 968 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 1: for a while. If he becomes a nominee, that's all 969 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 1: going to just disappear. And I think it's gonna be 970 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:17,040 Speaker 1: fascinating because real quick, do you think there'll be a 971 00:53:17,120 --> 00:53:19,560 Speaker 1: never Bernie movement among Democrats? I feel like they're lust 972 00:53:19,600 --> 00:53:23,000 Speaker 1: for power. Will that will never exist? I don't think 973 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,359 Speaker 1: you will exist. Maybe you know during the primaries there'll 974 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:27,439 Speaker 1: be a faction like that, but I think that will. 975 00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:31,160 Speaker 1: There will be no major anti Bernie movement, and they 976 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:33,759 Speaker 1: certainly won't dominate television in the way that they never 977 00:53:33,840 --> 00:53:35,600 Speaker 1: Trumpers do. I want to come back and ask you 978 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:38,040 Speaker 1: about how we got here.

David, I know, you know you've been 984 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,359 Speaker 1: writing about this. You know, I read the other day 985 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:02,239 Speaker 1: on air just an old, an old you know, Peace 986 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,800 Speaker 1: and the Press about how they used to drain the 987 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,560 Speaker 1: blood from execution victims, you know, political executions and Castro 988 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:11,920 Speaker 1: and Castro's Cuba before selling it to the Vietcong. I mean, 989 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,680 Speaker 1: this is a really scary, bad regime. Bernie Sanders still 990 00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 1: likes to say nice things about it, even after he's 991 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:21,279 Speaker 1: had this initial stumble. What do you make of that? Well, 992 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 1: even today, you know, in the past he is basically 993 00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 1: any tyrant. It was a Communist that he was asked 994 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:28,880 Speaker 1: about he defended in some way. I mean, you know, 995 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:31,799 Speaker 1: every single one during his life's time that I can 996 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,279 Speaker 1: see um, And even today he can't say, yeah, you know, 997 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,280 Speaker 1: I was wrong about Castro. I mean, that guy was terrible. 998 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:39,279 Speaker 1: He has to say there was a literacy program he liked, 999 00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:42,239 Speaker 1: as if communism wasn't, as if you needed communism to 1000 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 1: have a literacy program. You know, again, a lot of 1001 00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:48,120 Speaker 1: people pointed this out, but obviously no one says, boy, 1002 00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:50,800 Speaker 1: you know it was a real you know, environmentalist it was. 1003 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:52,400 Speaker 1: That was a good part. We can't only say the 1004 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 1: bat you know, talk about the bad things. It's preposterous. 1005 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:58,680 Speaker 1: He does it because he has an ideological uh, you know, 1006 00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:02,319 Speaker 1: he has ideological kins ship with what Castro has done there. 1007 00:55:03,040 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: And maybe he doesn't like the authoritarianism, but that goes 1008 00:55:06,120 --> 00:55:08,239 Speaker 1: hand in hand. It goes hand in hand every single time, 1009 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: because you can't have real socialism without compelling people to 1010 00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:15,120 Speaker 1: participate in stealing their property and making them do things. 1011 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 1: So he has never been asked to explain what in 1012 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 1: the Soviet Union he thinks was great that we should adopt, 1013 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,120 Speaker 1: as he said at the time, because no one asks 1014 00:55:24,200 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 1: him tough questions, and that Castro question was the toughest 1015 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,800 Speaker 1: thing has been asked. What was for you? What's the 1016 00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 1: scariest thing about a possible Bernie Sanders presidency. He keeps 1017 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 1: deflecting to every he says this thing about you know, 1018 00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:39,919 Speaker 1: every other industrialized country has managed to do this, which 1019 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:42,600 Speaker 1: is obviously very hazy on the details. But you know what, 1020 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,840 Speaker 1: what is your response when people say, oh, we can't 1021 00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:48,319 Speaker 1: we can't be Sweden. We can't be Denmark. That's all 1022 00:55:48,360 --> 00:55:51,759 Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders wants. If we were Denmark, we'd have a 1023 00:55:53,000 --> 00:55:55,040 Speaker 1: very very high tax rates for the middle class and 1024 00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 1: the poor as well. There is not they partly have 1025 00:55:57,400 --> 00:56:01,160 Speaker 1: any progressive taxation compared we have much bigger progressive taxation. 1026 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: They don't want them Mark here and they don't even 1027 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,480 Speaker 1: understand what's going on in Denmark and nor any of 1028 00:56:07,520 --> 00:56:11,600 Speaker 1: the Scandinavian countries where they have capitalistic, capitalistic engine in 1029 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,840 Speaker 1: a small country that you know that in a healthy 1030 00:56:15,280 --> 00:56:17,880 Speaker 1: not healthy, but a generous welfare program. That's not what 1031 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:21,200 Speaker 1: he wants. He wants to nationalize healthcare in this country. 1032 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 1: He wants to nationalize the energy sector in this country. 1033 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:27,920 Speaker 1: And you know that's my answers basically, you know, I mean, 1034 00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 1: I think you know, most people who keep saying, oh, 1035 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 1: why can't we be like Scandinavia have no clue what's 1036 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 1: even going on there. The Swedish rejected socialism after the 1037 00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,319 Speaker 1: seventies and embrace it. Yeah, Now, this is what I've 1038 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 1: been telling the audience, So I'm glad to hear that's 1039 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:43,279 Speaker 1: the same. That's the same way with like Uron, how 1040 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 1: do we how do we get to this point? Though, 1041 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:47,880 Speaker 1: I know you're going to be writing a National Review 1042 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 1: in the next day or so about this specifically, you know, 1043 00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: what has been the cultural transition rather than the cultural 1044 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:57,600 Speaker 1: process that has brought us to a point where a 1045 00:56:57,640 --> 00:57:00,160 Speaker 1: straight up socialist can be a serious content or for 1046 00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 1: the American presidency. Well, just to be preface this by saying, 1047 00:57:03,640 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 1: and I'm sure I've mentioned it on this show, that 1048 00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,920 Speaker 1: I am passionate about this, mostly because I think my 1049 00:57:09,040 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 1: parents were defectors from a communist country and to see 1050 00:57:12,719 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 1: them still alive having to think about what a social 1051 00:57:16,120 --> 00:57:19,720 Speaker 1: is becoming president, it's actually pretty horrifying for me. Lad 1052 00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 1: I want to dig in it for a second day. 1053 00:57:21,000 --> 00:57:22,400 Speaker 1: And what did they tell you about? What was it like? 1054 00:57:22,840 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 1: What was it like in the old country. It was 1055 00:57:24,640 --> 00:57:26,920 Speaker 1: like that they gave up everything and left their family 1056 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:28,920 Speaker 1: to come here because it was horrible, That's what it 1057 00:57:29,000 --> 00:57:30,600 Speaker 1: was like. I mean, they're from Hungary and it wasn't 1058 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:34,520 Speaker 1: Let's remember, Hungary wasn't the worst of the communist countries, 1059 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:37,640 Speaker 1: you know, as far as authoritarianism was concerned, wasn't as 1060 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:39,680 Speaker 1: probably as bad as Easia, German or the Soviet Union. 1061 00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:41,680 Speaker 1: But it was bad enough where you couldn't you were 1062 00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 1: told what to do, you were told what you could buy, 1063 00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:46,120 Speaker 1: you told what you can you know, become in life. 1064 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: And they didn't like that, so they gave up everything 1065 00:57:48,800 --> 00:57:52,840 Speaker 1: to come here, thankfully. And so to me it's personal 1066 00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 1: as well to hear people, to hear someone like Bernie 1067 00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:58,280 Speaker 1: saying the same kinds of things that I've been thinking 1068 00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:00,280 Speaker 1: about and studying for a long time, probably because of 1069 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:05,520 Speaker 1: my parents and growing up. You know, culturally, we never 1070 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:08,640 Speaker 1: treated socialism as we should have, or the or communism 1071 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 1: as we should have. I was thinking the other day 1072 00:58:10,360 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 1: about how everyone in this country knows what the Holocausts are. 1073 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:16,680 Speaker 1: Most people, I hope, who educated people do. They've seen 1074 00:58:16,720 --> 00:58:19,560 Speaker 1: pictures of it, they understand the depth in humanity of it. 1075 00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,640 Speaker 1: How many people here have heard of the greatly be 1076 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:23,320 Speaker 1: Forward or how many people here know that there was 1077 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 1: a Ukrainian famine where far more people died than the Holocaust. 1078 00:58:27,280 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 1: You know, they don't know that, they don't see pictures 1079 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 1: because the academics in this country, the cultural stewards you know, 1080 00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:36,160 Speaker 1: of this country don't care about that kind of thing. 1081 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 1: They have whitewash communism and whitewash socialism. Why I've been 1082 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 1: telling I've been telling everyone listens for a while to 1083 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:45,520 Speaker 1: read The Great Terror by Robert Conquest, which is which 1084 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 1: is a study of effectively how academics in the West, 1085 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: the UK, and America pretended that the Great Purges under 1086 00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 1: Stalin didn't happen. Millions and millions and millions of people tortured, murdered, starve, killed, 1087 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:01,000 Speaker 1: sent to Siberia. All of the people act like that 1088 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 1: didn't happen, right, or yeah, or they're apologists for the things, 1089 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 1: or even yesterday. So I forget his name, but he 1090 00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 1: was at BuzzFeed once saying America is just as bad 1091 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:14,000 Speaker 1: as Cuba, or even just as bad. You know, we 1092 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:16,520 Speaker 1: are forced to say the pleasure of allegiance in school. 1093 00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 1: Also like these. Sometimes I wonder if they're just not 1094 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 1: educated enough, or if they fool themselves or they don't care. 1095 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:27,880 Speaker 1: But generally, I think what happens is that socialism is enticing. 1096 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:31,800 Speaker 1: It's kind of a religious It's about feels, you know 1097 00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 1: what I mean. I want to help the poor, I 1098 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:36,720 Speaker 1: want to make people equal, and whether the Soviet unions 1099 00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:39,880 Speaker 1: around or not around, people will embrace that. The Soviet 1100 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 1: Union was around, Burnie embraced that he didn't care. So 1101 00:59:42,360 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 1: it's not just about not being around for that stuff. 1102 00:59:45,960 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 1: And first of all, we are around for that stuff, right, 1103 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:50,640 Speaker 1: You have Venezuela of China, you have North Korea and 1104 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:53,400 Speaker 1: other countries, so you're around for it. They just don't care. 1105 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:55,200 Speaker 1: They think they can do it better and do it right. 1106 00:59:56,280 --> 00:59:57,840 Speaker 1: And again, I just I want to quickly say, I'm 1107 00:59:57,840 --> 00:59:59,840 Speaker 1: not saying Burnie is Stalin, but I am saying no 1108 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:03,440 Speaker 1: works around saying hey, I'm a democratic fascist, right because 1109 01:00:03,480 --> 01:00:06,520 Speaker 1: it would be preposterous, just as it's preposterous as the 1110 01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 1: same a democratic social And so you feel like if 1111 01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 1: if people understood that that Bernie Sanders is not representing 1112 01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 1: a future for because I think the American left largely, 1113 01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:19,880 Speaker 1: I mean, there are the true radicals that want total 1114 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:24,160 Speaker 1: social justice based economic reorganization and upheaval, but I think 1115 01:00:24,200 --> 01:00:27,440 Speaker 1: that in that for a lot of more normal democrats, 1116 01:00:27,480 --> 01:00:29,480 Speaker 1: however you want to define that, they're like, we're just 1117 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,680 Speaker 1: trying to be more like Europe, That's what they say. 1118 01:00:31,840 --> 01:00:33,520 Speaker 1: And this is general thing of we're just going to 1119 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,120 Speaker 1: be more like Europe. What do you say to that? 1120 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 1: I get it, I mean, and I believe that that's 1121 01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 1: what most normal Democrats probably want to do. Europe is 1122 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,560 Speaker 1: not a success, though we're a success. We're much more 1123 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 1: successful in Europe. The more you organize and have coped 1124 01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 1: down control of the economy, the more stagnant your society is, 1125 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:58,720 Speaker 1: the less growth there is. I just don't understand. Here's 1126 01:00:58,760 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: really what my problem is. I just don't understand what 1127 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:02,800 Speaker 1: people are talking about. The act like we're in the middle. 1128 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:05,720 Speaker 1: You know that we're nineteen seventeen Russia here or something 1129 01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:08,240 Speaker 1: like that. We're not. We're getting better. Everything's getting better, 1130 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:12,680 Speaker 1: we're living longer. To to try to now control the economy, 1131 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:16,440 Speaker 1: to have someone take over your healthcare because it's it's expensive. 1132 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,640 Speaker 1: I mean that has never worked, and healthcare is expanded. 1133 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 1: The two things that are outrageously expensive in comparison to 1134 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:24,840 Speaker 1: what they used to be are two, as I like 1135 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:27,880 Speaker 1: to point out, two of the most heavily government regulated 1136 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:32,480 Speaker 1: and government involved areas of the economy healthcare and education, right, 1137 01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 1: and also housing has gone up as well. But you 1138 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 1: know it is more expensive, but no one says things 1139 01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,280 Speaker 1: have to be cheaper forever. You also get a lot more, 1140 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:46,800 Speaker 1: we live longer, with less pain, We have incredible technological 1141 01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 1: advances in medicine, and one day they're going to be 1142 01:01:48,840 --> 01:01:50,520 Speaker 1: cheaper and when you know, when we learn how to 1143 01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:53,400 Speaker 1: be more productive making those things, and the idea that 1144 01:01:53,480 --> 01:01:56,640 Speaker 1: we should hand that over to government, to me is 1145 01:01:56,720 --> 01:01:59,720 Speaker 1: just it's un American, and you know, and I hope 1146 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:01,880 Speaker 1: that enough Democrats realize that. Though I don't know how 1147 01:02:01,920 --> 01:02:04,280 Speaker 1: you st I actually think, and I'm trying to get 1148 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 1: you know, more people to at least hear me out 1149 01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:09,840 Speaker 1: on this theory. There was a huge surge towards socialism 1150 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 1: during and after the Great Depression in America in the West. 1151 01:02:14,160 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 1: The idea was that capitalism had failed and that socialism 1152 01:02:17,680 --> 01:02:19,600 Speaker 1: was the future. Right. This is and this was it 1153 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:22,240 Speaker 1: was communist propaganda, but this is what was believed by 1154 01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:26,960 Speaker 1: a lot of people, you know, British, British intellectuals, American journalists. 1155 01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,000 Speaker 1: I think that we've ventured a period where America is 1156 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,840 Speaker 1: actually so peaceful and so prosperous that now we almost 1157 01:02:32,840 --> 01:02:35,400 Speaker 1: have the opposite problem. Who everyone's thinking, well, if we 1158 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:38,760 Speaker 1: only gave the government more control, we could completely eradicate 1159 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 1: we essentially could get to utopia. We can completely eradicate 1160 01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:46,880 Speaker 1: poverty and pain and illness and all these other things. Now, 1161 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:49,800 Speaker 1: I think that's right. I think that people don't listen. 1162 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:51,680 Speaker 1: There's always going to be a segment of a population 1163 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:55,120 Speaker 1: that's suffering, obviously, so there are problems. We don't live 1164 01:02:55,120 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 1: in utopia. It's never going to be that way. But 1165 01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 1: I do think that we have so few problems or another. Yeah, 1166 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:01,640 Speaker 1: so I agree with what you're saying. But I think 1167 01:03:01,640 --> 01:03:04,520 Speaker 1: another problem is we look at our political environment, which 1168 01:03:04,560 --> 01:03:06,920 Speaker 1: is ridiculous right now and has been for a while, 1169 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:09,760 Speaker 1: and we sort of transpose that onto the real world. 1170 01:03:09,800 --> 01:03:12,040 Speaker 1: The real world is nothing like that. I live amongst 1171 01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:16,280 Speaker 1: my neighbors very peacefully. Everything was going pretty good for 1172 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: their lives, and but then they look at the havoc 1173 01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:21,960 Speaker 1: of politics and they think that that's how the country 1174 01:03:22,040 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 1: is in general, when it's not. So. I think I 1175 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,280 Speaker 1: think people have the wrong even though I don't know. 1176 01:03:27,360 --> 01:03:29,200 Speaker 1: There were poles of Gallipole showed that most people are 1177 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 1: pretty happy in etc. But I think the people think 1178 01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 1: there's a lot of turmoil when really they have less 1179 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:37,480 Speaker 1: turmoil that than they've ever had in history. And what 1180 01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:40,280 Speaker 1: about the points about the middle? You know, this keeps 1181 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:41,800 Speaker 1: coming up to the middle class have it worse. The 1182 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 1: middle class have it worse. I mean I've seen some 1183 01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 1: serious right leaning I guess you could say economists who 1184 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 1: will point out that, you know, my parents generation, for example, 1185 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,440 Speaker 1: there were things that were you know, less, there were 1186 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 1: things that were less expensive even when adjusted for inflation 1187 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:58,760 Speaker 1: and everything else. It seems like you're telling me also, yeah, 1188 01:03:58,840 --> 01:04:01,320 Speaker 1: but you know you can around a supercomputer in your 1189 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:04,240 Speaker 1: pocket and are going to live like fifteen years longer 1190 01:04:04,280 --> 01:04:06,440 Speaker 1: and healthier, etcetera, etcetera. I mean, how do you deal 1191 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:08,960 Speaker 1: with the middle class is getting a raw deal? Right? 1192 01:04:09,000 --> 01:04:11,080 Speaker 1: This is what all those democrats say. What's the truth 1193 01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:14,439 Speaker 1: of that? Well, the right leaning people you're talking about 1194 01:04:14,440 --> 01:04:16,160 Speaker 1: are not serious in my book, But I will tell 1195 01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:18,600 Speaker 1: you this, Yes, some things are more expensive, it seems 1196 01:04:18,600 --> 01:04:20,360 Speaker 1: to me, how is this, for instance, but they're also 1197 01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:24,120 Speaker 1: a million times nicer. I mean, I mean that they're bigger, 1198 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,200 Speaker 1: they're more beautiful, they're better built, they're safer. There are 1199 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,120 Speaker 1: very few things today that are Take a car. I 1200 01:04:30,200 --> 01:04:33,880 Speaker 1: just saw a just saw a study on cars that 1201 01:04:34,040 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 1: when when I was a kid, that people would have 1202 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 1: their cars like five six years whatever it was. Now 1203 01:04:38,560 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 1: cars ten years later are running people have to return them. 1204 01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:43,400 Speaker 1: They're still in like really good shape. They could run, 1205 01:04:43,560 --> 01:04:45,120 Speaker 1: you know, they could go two hundred thousand miles and 1206 01:04:45,120 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 1: there would be no problem. Everything we have is a 1207 01:04:47,320 --> 01:04:51,120 Speaker 1: better quality. A dollar I spend on something on medical care, 1208 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,720 Speaker 1: for instance, is far more useful today than it was 1209 01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:56,000 Speaker 1: back then. The idea that the middle classes stuff. First 1210 01:04:56,000 --> 01:04:58,600 Speaker 1: of all, the middle class is growing, the upper middle 1211 01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 1: class is growing. We're not getting poor, we're getting richer. 1212 01:05:01,560 --> 01:05:03,640 Speaker 1: And people don't want to accept this for some reason. 1213 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:06,280 Speaker 1: But the country is better now. Obviously, we have some 1214 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 1: social problems, and you know, the the overdoses and all 1215 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,440 Speaker 1: of that, and they were people. You know, those are 1216 01:05:12,520 --> 01:05:15,520 Speaker 1: moral problems and ethnic problems and communal problems. I'm not 1217 01:05:15,600 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 1: sure that a government can solve those things, you know. 1218 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,560 Speaker 1: I just have never seen that happen before, where government 1219 01:05:21,600 --> 01:05:25,520 Speaker 1: solves your depression. For instance, David Harsani dropping happy truth 1220 01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:27,400 Speaker 1: bombs for all of us to hear, I mean, telling 1221 01:05:27,480 --> 01:05:29,920 Speaker 1: us that things actually are getting better. David's stuff will 1222 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,000 Speaker 1: be up at nashurreview dot com. Reading there, follow him 1223 01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:35,080 Speaker 1: on Twitter. Last name kind of spelled like it sounds 1224 01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:38,120 Speaker 1: h A R S A n y I. David, thanks 1225 01:05:38,160 --> 01:05:43,480 Speaker 1: so much man any time. Thank you, You're enough freedom. 1226 01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:50,720 Speaker 1: This is the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Damn, we got 1227 01:05:50,800 --> 01:05:55,760 Speaker 1: another bomb drop by Project Veritas here. This time it's 1228 01:05:55,800 --> 01:06:00,520 Speaker 1: an ABC News correspondent who has been It's just spended 1229 01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,440 Speaker 1: in advance of what will be a Project very Toss 1230 01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 1: video released. Veteran reporter David Wright was suspended. We have 1231 01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:12,480 Speaker 1: some of the audio producer mark Project Veritas tricks again. 1232 01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:41,560 Speaker 1: Play it keeping. Yeah, voters are guys like I'm a socialist. Okay, 1233 01:06:41,720 --> 01:06:44,600 Speaker 1: now this gets very interesting for me on a few levels. One, 1234 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:47,400 Speaker 1: I think the Project Veritas has done some the best 1235 01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,920 Speaker 1: undercover the most important undercover videos all they actually make 1236 01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:51,760 Speaker 1: you want to throw up when you watch them that 1237 01:06:51,840 --> 01:06:54,800 Speaker 1: I've ever seen were from David de Laydon and the 1238 01:06:54,880 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 1: Center for Medical Progress. And the fact that that did 1239 01:06:57,920 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 1: not result in a complete national revulsion and change in 1240 01:07:01,600 --> 01:07:04,400 Speaker 1: the view of abortion and abortion laws is a stain 1241 01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,880 Speaker 1: on this country's honor and integrity. But Product for artas 1242 01:07:07,960 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 1: does some good stuff. James o'keith is a brave guy 1243 01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,920 Speaker 1: who works hard at what he does. I have been 1244 01:07:13,920 --> 01:07:15,840 Speaker 1: a little critical in the past, and I would continue 1245 01:07:15,880 --> 01:07:19,920 Speaker 1: to be about posing as a colleague slash friend of 1246 01:07:20,040 --> 01:07:23,240 Speaker 1: somebody in off hours who happens to work for a 1247 01:07:23,320 --> 01:07:26,920 Speaker 1: news organization who's kind of like a you know, getting 1248 01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 1: some ap assistant producer, some effectively close to entry level 1249 01:07:31,280 --> 01:07:33,960 Speaker 1: person or somebody who's you know, maybe a couple runs 1250 01:07:34,040 --> 01:07:36,720 Speaker 1: up the ladder from that and having them say some 1251 01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:39,959 Speaker 1: stuff and then exposing that and getting them in trouble 1252 01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:41,960 Speaker 1: and ruining their career. You know, I think, I think 1253 01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 1: you gotta be you gotta be willing to draw some 1254 01:07:44,840 --> 01:07:46,360 Speaker 1: lines here. And it's one thing if you can get 1255 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 1: like a CNN anchor being like, yeah, I'm a socialist 1256 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,480 Speaker 1: and I hate Republicans and I pretend to be neutral 1257 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:55,880 Speaker 1: on TV. Yeah, that's that, you know, you can break 1258 01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 1: break the confidence of somebody that you're posing as you know, 1259 01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:03,280 Speaker 1: somebody having a normal conversation with. But the other stuff, 1260 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,560 Speaker 1: I think Project Veritas has gone after some people that 1261 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:07,480 Speaker 1: are a little too low level in my opinion. I'm 1262 01:08:07,520 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 1: just going to say it. So I don't like everything 1263 01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:12,080 Speaker 1: that they do on this exposing bias realm that said 1264 01:08:12,160 --> 01:08:15,720 Speaker 1: they are doing the work, and this guy I think, 1265 01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:18,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know that much about the hierarchy 1266 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:22,760 Speaker 1: over at ABC News, but this guy's a senior correspondent. 1267 01:08:22,880 --> 01:08:25,840 Speaker 1: He's been around for a long time, and he's getting 1268 01:08:25,880 --> 01:08:28,640 Speaker 1: in trouble here for saying what we essentially already know 1269 01:08:28,800 --> 01:08:31,320 Speaker 1: to be the case, what we already know to be true, 1270 01:08:32,080 --> 01:08:35,519 Speaker 1: and that is that these networks CBS to this debate 1271 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:39,280 Speaker 1: last night ABC. These are lib networks that are clinging 1272 01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:42,560 Speaker 1: to this fiction that they're neutral, and it's because that 1273 01:08:42,800 --> 01:08:45,599 Speaker 1: gives them an advantage over their competitors, because they hold 1274 01:08:45,640 --> 01:08:48,720 Speaker 1: themselves up as, oh see, we're the real journalists, we 1275 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:52,400 Speaker 1: do the honest journalism here. And they're these massive legacy 1276 01:08:52,439 --> 01:08:55,000 Speaker 1: institutions with a huge amount of corporate money and power 1277 01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:57,759 Speaker 1: behind them, and so they still have I mean, ABC 1278 01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,479 Speaker 1: News has ten million people watching in a night. I mean, 1279 01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 1: if you want to watch like a male model read 1280 01:09:02,439 --> 01:09:04,360 Speaker 1: off of a prompter, you can do that on any 1281 01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:06,360 Speaker 1: channel base. I don't know why people do. Oh that 1282 01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:09,120 Speaker 1: could David and Weird, you know. I'm like, okay, we're 1283 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 1: gonna see them take his shirt off? Like why is 1284 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,720 Speaker 1: everyone so excited about watching this thirty minute broadcast? That's 1285 01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:16,519 Speaker 1: so And it always ends too with like oh on 1286 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:19,000 Speaker 1: a hoppy story of like ducks on a palm that 1287 01:09:19,160 --> 01:09:21,600 Speaker 1: you know, found their mother. I mean, I think I 1288 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:25,760 Speaker 1: think this format is hopefully going away soon. You know, 1289 01:09:25,840 --> 01:09:28,120 Speaker 1: ABC they run this programming all day and then then 1290 01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:30,439 Speaker 1: they throw on a news broadcast for thirty minutes or 1291 01:09:30,479 --> 01:09:32,840 Speaker 1: whatever it is at night. Same thing with CBS evening news. 1292 01:09:32,920 --> 01:09:34,960 Speaker 1: Like why why does anybody think that they should watch this? 1293 01:09:36,120 --> 01:09:38,080 Speaker 1: And it's old habits. I mean, it goes back to 1294 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,040 Speaker 1: when people that was their only option and they're used 1295 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:42,400 Speaker 1: to doing that, and so they keep doing it. But 1296 01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 1: they cling to this fiction because it gives them an 1297 01:09:45,120 --> 01:09:48,800 Speaker 1: advantage over their competitors, and it should go away. A 1298 01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:53,280 Speaker 1: well educated news consumer understands that ABC, CBS, NBC, they 1299 01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:56,400 Speaker 1: are liberal networks. They're pushing a liberal agenda. Their anchors 1300 01:09:56,400 --> 01:09:58,839 Speaker 1: are generally unimpressive and don't know very much about politics 1301 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 1: or the world, and this is just the reality we 1302 01:10:01,520 --> 01:10:04,719 Speaker 1: live in. So this senior guy saying that they spike 1303 01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:07,360 Speaker 1: stories that are pro Trump, they run stories that are 1304 01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:11,240 Speaker 1: anti Trump, he's a socialist, just confirmation of what we 1305 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 1: already know. And if he's a senior enough guy, I 1306 01:10:14,040 --> 01:10:17,200 Speaker 1: mean I think that that's I think then that justifies 1307 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:21,320 Speaker 1: the undercover approach to get this information about about this individual, 1308 01:10:23,080 --> 01:10:24,760 Speaker 1: you know, And so I think that I think that 1309 01:10:24,920 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 1: this one probably clears the bar for me in terms 1310 01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:31,200 Speaker 1: of a project very toss sting operation.

Well, 1333 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:38,760 Speaker 1: I think you know when you when you look at 1334 01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,360 Speaker 1: at the situation of the church. I think most most Christians, 1335 01:11:41,439 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 1: most believe in Christians, realize that we have a problem, 1336 01:11:44,320 --> 01:11:47,840 Speaker 1: that the church is dying. Essentially, not to not to 1337 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:50,120 Speaker 1: be too dramatic about it, but when you see that, 1338 01:11:50,160 --> 01:11:53,479 Speaker 1: when you see the statistics of younger generation leaving the church, 1339 01:11:53,600 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 1: especially when he gets around college age, and faith is dwindling, 1340 01:11:58,080 --> 01:12:00,040 Speaker 1: you look, and you look even more specifically, yet the 1341 01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 1: number of Christians who will affirm even the most basic 1342 01:12:04,600 --> 01:12:08,280 Speaker 1: doctrinal points of Christianity, those numbers are going down. Why 1343 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,599 Speaker 1: is that, That's the question. And I think the answer 1344 01:12:11,720 --> 01:12:15,679 Speaker 1: is that in our culture in the West, as opposed 1345 01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:17,200 Speaker 1: to out in the East, in the Middle East and 1346 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:20,200 Speaker 1: places in Africa where they have real violent persecution they faced, 1347 01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:23,160 Speaker 1: we don't face that. Our problem is almost exactly the opposite, 1348 01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:25,880 Speaker 1: where we're far too comfortable and we're sort of just 1349 01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 1: drifting along on the tide of the culture. And going 1350 01:12:29,040 --> 01:12:31,120 Speaker 1: wherever and it takes us, and in this case, it's 1351 01:12:31,160 --> 01:12:36,000 Speaker 1: taking us right into faithlessness and secularism and relativism. And 1352 01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:37,720 Speaker 1: so this book is trying to call attention to that 1353 01:12:37,840 --> 01:12:43,519 Speaker 1: and basically hoping to rally Christians to resist that tide, 1354 01:12:43,600 --> 01:12:45,600 Speaker 1: because I think we've been just drifting with it for 1355 01:12:45,680 --> 01:12:48,040 Speaker 1: far too long. Why is that? I mean, people talk 1356 01:12:48,040 --> 01:12:51,680 Speaker 1: a lot about the culture and the influences that one 1357 01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 1: has from just you know, TV movies, what's cool, you know, 1358 01:12:55,400 --> 01:12:58,880 Speaker 1: the VMAs, all this stuff. It tends to not be 1359 01:12:58,960 --> 01:13:01,000 Speaker 1: in line with it, with it, you say, a traditional 1360 01:13:01,200 --> 01:13:05,200 Speaker 1: Christian morality. Is there a way to infuse the culture 1361 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:07,360 Speaker 1: with more of that? Or is that a pipe dream? 1362 01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:09,800 Speaker 1: What do you make of it? Well? I think it 1363 01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 1: has to start. It has to start with the church. 1364 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:14,320 Speaker 1: And when I say the church, I mean, you know, 1365 01:13:14,720 --> 01:13:19,360 Speaker 1: Christianity generally, churches in general. It has has to start there. 1366 01:13:19,400 --> 01:13:23,799 Speaker 1: And I think what the problem is that many churches 1367 01:13:23,880 --> 01:13:27,559 Speaker 1: for a long time and Christian leaders have been scared, 1368 01:13:27,600 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 1: have been very reluctant. I've been scared to challenge their flocks, 1369 01:13:31,840 --> 01:13:34,920 Speaker 1: especially morally, you know, to have a real moral message 1370 01:13:34,960 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 1: to call them to sacrifice and repent in these things, 1371 01:13:38,400 --> 01:13:40,160 Speaker 1: and so it has to has to be to begin 1372 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:42,759 Speaker 1: with that. You know, we can we can't be afraid 1373 01:13:42,840 --> 01:13:46,559 Speaker 1: to engage on a moral level, um, and we can't 1374 01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:49,080 Speaker 1: be afraid of of engaging the culture, which is which 1375 01:13:49,080 --> 01:13:50,800 Speaker 1: has been the case, which has been the case for 1376 01:13:50,880 --> 01:13:52,960 Speaker 1: so long. Now. You're a Catholic, I'm a Catholic. What 1377 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:56,439 Speaker 1: do you think of this Pope? You know, I'm I'm 1378 01:13:57,000 --> 01:13:58,400 Speaker 1: I can't say I'm a big I'm a big fan 1379 01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:01,600 Speaker 1: of the pope. My, my biggest, the biggest issue with 1380 01:14:01,760 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 1: with Pope Francis is that the one thing we need 1381 01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:13,040 Speaker 1: as Catholics and as Christians generally is moral clarity and direction. 1382 01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:16,599 Speaker 1: And that's the exact opposite of what we've been getting 1383 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:19,480 Speaker 1: from the Vatican for years now, where it's just confusion, 1384 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:22,479 Speaker 1: it's haziness. And you know, it sounds like the Pope 1385 01:14:22,600 --> 01:14:24,880 Speaker 1: is suggesting that this or that change to be made. 1386 01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:29,320 Speaker 1: It sounds like he's even challenging some really fundamental points 1387 01:14:29,360 --> 01:14:31,600 Speaker 1: of doctrine, and that's what it sounds like. And then 1388 01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:33,640 Speaker 1: we're told no by the Vaticaneau, it's not exactly what 1389 01:14:33,720 --> 01:14:35,200 Speaker 1: he meant. But what did he mean? I don't know, 1390 01:14:35,560 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 1: and it's just been the same game that's been played 1391 01:14:37,680 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 1: for years now. And all it does it confuses people, 1392 01:14:40,960 --> 01:14:44,800 Speaker 1: and it makes devout Catholics feel betrayed, and it makes 1393 01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:47,280 Speaker 1: us feel like, well, what you know, it makes us 1394 01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,200 Speaker 1: feel like the Pope does just doesn't care the situation 1395 01:14:50,280 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 1: that we're in, or doesn't doesn't realize what it's like 1396 01:14:53,080 --> 01:14:56,760 Speaker 1: for us in this culture. Now, forty one senators Democratic 1397 01:14:56,800 --> 01:15:01,880 Speaker 1: senators just voted against giving medical care when babies are 1398 01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 1: born alive during an abortion procedure. Democrats claim it doesn't happen. 1399 01:15:06,800 --> 01:15:09,920 Speaker 1: I know this happens. We know this happens. There are 1400 01:15:09,960 --> 01:15:13,680 Speaker 1: people that have testified about it happening to them, but 1401 01:15:13,880 --> 01:15:16,599 Speaker 1: then they go ahead and vote against this after saying 1402 01:15:16,640 --> 01:15:18,360 Speaker 1: it's not a thing. Then they say, well, even if 1403 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:20,320 Speaker 1: it is a thing, we're not going to give protection 1404 01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:23,919 Speaker 1: to babies who are born alive during an abortion procedure. 1405 01:15:24,200 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 1: I want to ask you know, what do you think 1406 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,400 Speaker 1: should be the appropriate what is the appropriate response from 1407 01:15:29,640 --> 01:15:31,040 Speaker 1: I don't mean it focus too much here in the 1408 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,720 Speaker 1: Catholic church, but it is an area where I think 1409 01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:36,320 Speaker 1: you and I have some similar views on this. Pelosi Biden, 1410 01:15:36,400 --> 01:15:38,479 Speaker 1: people who I think Biden. Yeah, Biden claims to be 1411 01:15:38,520 --> 01:15:40,639 Speaker 1: Catholic as well. I know Pelosi will talk about her faith. 1412 01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:43,479 Speaker 1: What should be done When someone like Nancy Pelosi, for example, 1413 01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:47,960 Speaker 1: supports publicly as a as a leader and as a legislator, 1414 01:15:48,040 --> 01:15:50,959 Speaker 1: a legislator abortion for all nine months of her pregnancy, 1415 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:53,080 Speaker 1: and then turns around and talks about how her Catholic 1416 01:15:53,120 --> 01:15:56,960 Speaker 1: faith informs her love for everybody, I think it's just 1417 01:15:57,040 --> 01:16:00,320 Speaker 1: a total mockery and a disgrace that these politics are 1418 01:16:00,320 --> 01:16:04,120 Speaker 1: allowed to continue. Obviously, the Catholic Church can't stop them 1419 01:16:04,160 --> 01:16:06,320 Speaker 1: from saying whatever they want to say. But the Catholic 1420 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:08,640 Speaker 1: Church can say, well, if you're if this is a 1421 01:16:08,680 --> 01:16:10,320 Speaker 1: position you're going to take, and you're going to try 1422 01:16:10,360 --> 01:16:13,680 Speaker 1: to lead people into scandal and sin publicly, then you're 1423 01:16:13,680 --> 01:16:14,840 Speaker 1: not going to do it as a Catholic and they 1424 01:16:14,840 --> 01:16:18,000 Speaker 1: should be excommunicated. This is a this is a tool 1425 01:16:18,080 --> 01:16:20,679 Speaker 1: that the Catholic Church has under its belt, and maybe 1426 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:22,479 Speaker 1: there was a time when it was a little bit 1427 01:16:22,520 --> 01:16:25,880 Speaker 1: too liberal in its use of it, but in recent 1428 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:29,000 Speaker 1: years and decades, it's it just seems like there's nothing 1429 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:32,519 Speaker 1: that a Catholic can do, apparently at least in the West, 1430 01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 1: to get themselves excommunicate. But this is this is supposed 1431 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:37,919 Speaker 1: to be exactly the situation it gets you as communicate. 1432 01:16:37,960 --> 01:16:41,799 Speaker 1: When you're on a public stage and you're denying basic 1433 01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 1: fundamental doctrines of the Catholic Church and trying to importantly 1434 01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:48,680 Speaker 1: lead other people into denying it as well, that's when 1435 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:50,400 Speaker 1: the Catholic Church is supposed to state, No, you're not 1436 01:16:50,760 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 1: that this is you're you're not in you're clearly not 1437 01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:56,240 Speaker 1: in communion with us, and so you know, hit the 1438 01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:58,840 Speaker 1: bricks basically, and that's what should be said. There's there's 1439 01:16:58,880 --> 01:17:02,200 Speaker 1: no argument I can see, you know, for allowing this 1440 01:17:02,360 --> 01:17:04,360 Speaker 1: to continue the way the church has. What do you 1441 01:17:04,439 --> 01:17:08,040 Speaker 1: make of Pope Pete's speaking of popes. Pope, by the way, 1442 01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:10,559 Speaker 1: speaking to Matt Walsh, who has a new book out 1443 01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 1: that you all should check out. You probably know Matt 1444 01:17:13,439 --> 01:17:15,759 Speaker 1: from the Daily Wire. His book is Church of Cowards, 1445 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:19,040 Speaker 1: a wake up called the Complacent Christians. Uh yeah, but 1446 01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,720 Speaker 1: Pope he seems to, even when it's not necessary, fall 1447 01:17:22,800 --> 01:17:26,520 Speaker 1: back on this. Let me lecture Christians who are Republicans 1448 01:17:26,640 --> 01:17:30,320 Speaker 1: or conservatives about the immorality of their side. Well, what's 1449 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:33,479 Speaker 1: the Matt Walsh take on all that. Yeah, I think 1450 01:17:33,479 --> 01:17:36,840 Speaker 1: it's it's interesting that Republicans are, though, are the ones 1451 01:17:36,880 --> 01:17:39,200 Speaker 1: who are accused of being Bible thumpers all the time. 1452 01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:42,400 Speaker 1: But but yeah, Pope pe or pastor pas I've called 1453 01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,960 Speaker 1: you gave him that, you gave him the uh you know, 1454 01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:48,240 Speaker 1: you're promoted him my guests to pope. But he's the 1455 01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:50,639 Speaker 1: one who brings up the Bible, constantly brings up, brings 1456 01:17:50,680 --> 01:17:52,719 Speaker 1: his faith into it all the time, which I wouldn't 1457 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:54,320 Speaker 1: have a problem with if it wasn't number one, for 1458 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:57,280 Speaker 1: the hypocrisy of it. But number two that he's that 1459 01:17:57,360 --> 01:18:01,840 Speaker 1: he's distorting the biblical message support some of the worst 1460 01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:04,760 Speaker 1: moral outrages that the world has ever seen. I mean, 1461 01:18:05,560 --> 01:18:10,679 Speaker 1: he is in favor of abortion at every stage of development. 1462 01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:13,160 Speaker 1: He was given a chance recently at I think it 1463 01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:14,640 Speaker 1: was a town hall, he was given a chance to 1464 01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:18,280 Speaker 1: at least come out against partial birth abortion, which is, 1465 01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:21,800 Speaker 1: you know, the killing of a baby literally as it's 1466 01:18:21,880 --> 01:18:24,960 Speaker 1: being born and emerging from the birth canal. And he 1467 01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't come out against that. He apparently has no problem 1468 01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:30,439 Speaker 1: with that. And yet he's trying to use his faith 1469 01:18:31,439 --> 01:18:33,600 Speaker 1: as a as a cudgel to beat other people with 1470 01:18:33,720 --> 01:18:37,640 Speaker 1: and it's just absolutely hypocritical and wrong. And man, I 1471 01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:40,080 Speaker 1: also want to get your take on what do you 1472 01:18:40,120 --> 01:18:42,200 Speaker 1: see happening right now that we had the debate last night. 1473 01:18:42,240 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 1: What do you see happening right now in this democratic field? 1474 01:18:44,520 --> 01:18:47,000 Speaker 1: Are are you concerned that Bernie Sanders, if he becomes 1475 01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:50,639 Speaker 1: the nominee, can actually win. I think he can win. 1476 01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:53,840 Speaker 1: My money wouldn't be wouldn't be on him. I think 1477 01:18:53,880 --> 01:18:55,800 Speaker 1: the smart money was starting to be against him winning 1478 01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,880 Speaker 1: because for all, for all the obvious reasons. At number one, 1479 01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 1: he's a communist and it is hard to imagine that 1480 01:19:01,000 --> 01:19:03,160 Speaker 1: thirty years after after, you know, we win the Cold 1481 01:19:03,200 --> 01:19:05,479 Speaker 1: War and we actually elect the communist president. So that's 1482 01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:08,080 Speaker 1: hard to imagine. On top of that, you know, also 1483 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:09,760 Speaker 1: other things. I think the fact that he's going to 1484 01:19:09,760 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 1: be seventy nine years old at inauguration day, you know, 1485 01:19:13,520 --> 01:19:15,720 Speaker 1: that's that's also a problem that people recognize him, and 1486 01:19:16,000 --> 01:19:18,920 Speaker 1: so many other issues as well. So that's what would 1487 01:19:19,280 --> 01:19:21,920 Speaker 1: I think put the odds against him. But I also 1488 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:24,880 Speaker 1: think that many conservatives and Trump supporters have been a 1489 01:19:24,960 --> 01:19:29,000 Speaker 1: little bit too cocky and confident, basically guaranteeing that you know, 1490 01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:32,439 Speaker 1: he's going to lose forty five states or whatever. Uh, 1491 01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:34,720 Speaker 1: he definitely has a chance to win because there are 1492 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:37,040 Speaker 1: other things that are working in his favor. And you 1493 01:19:37,120 --> 01:19:40,439 Speaker 1: do you do see some interesting parallels between Bernie twenty 1494 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:43,120 Speaker 1: twenty and Trump twenty sixteen. I mean, this is someone 1495 01:19:43,160 --> 01:19:47,760 Speaker 1: who number one, has a very excited core of supporters 1496 01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:50,439 Speaker 1: who are not going to abandon him no matter what 1497 01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:52,880 Speaker 1: comes out against him, just like just like Trump has 1498 01:19:52,880 --> 01:19:55,600 Speaker 1: always had. Trump had a twenty sixteen. Uh, you know, 1499 01:19:55,720 --> 01:19:59,599 Speaker 1: he's he's He's But I think the most important thing 1500 01:19:59,640 --> 01:20:02,120 Speaker 1: about Bernie that maybe people don't understand is that his 1501 01:20:03,560 --> 01:20:06,360 Speaker 1: message is all about moral outrage. You know, that's his 1502 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:09,120 Speaker 1: entire message. It's not an economic message, it's a moral message. 1503 01:20:09,120 --> 01:20:11,280 Speaker 1: And he's he's always out there talking about this is wrong, 1504 01:20:11,400 --> 01:20:14,000 Speaker 1: you know, income inequality, and people can't get healthcare, and 1505 01:20:14,520 --> 01:20:16,880 Speaker 1: kids with their student loan dead, and YadA, YadA, YadA. 1506 01:20:17,320 --> 01:20:20,040 Speaker 1: His whole messages this is wrong, it's evil if we 1507 01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:22,880 Speaker 1: have to stand against it. And I think his prescriptions 1508 01:20:22,920 --> 01:20:25,679 Speaker 1: for these moral problems are completely wrong. But the fact 1509 01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:28,800 Speaker 1: is that's how he's he's rallying people, and it's a 1510 01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:31,120 Speaker 1: message that does resonate, and it's the same kind of 1511 01:20:31,160 --> 01:20:33,680 Speaker 1: message that Trump has always had. Actually, I think the 1512 01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:35,879 Speaker 1: Trump is had a message of you know, the elites 1513 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:38,360 Speaker 1: and the swamp and they're taking advantage over the working man. 1514 01:20:38,439 --> 01:20:42,400 Speaker 1: And it's a similar kind of message of moral outrage 1515 01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:46,200 Speaker 1: about people being taken advantage of. Um, it's gonna be 1516 01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:48,120 Speaker 1: a few hundred thousand votes that determine who the next 1517 01:20:48,160 --> 01:20:49,680 Speaker 1: president is. I think every needs to remember that too. 1518 01:20:49,720 --> 01:20:51,479 Speaker 1: It's it's not going to be like ten million votes 1519 01:20:51,520 --> 01:20:52,560 Speaker 1: on one side of the other. It's gonna be a 1520 01:20:52,560 --> 01:20:56,880 Speaker 1: few hundred thousand in about half a dozen states, right 1521 01:20:57,040 --> 01:20:58,920 Speaker 1: right exactly. So any anything to happening when and when 1522 01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 1: you throw just like we saw with Trump, do you 1523 01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:02,680 Speaker 1: saw somebody like Trump into the mix. It's really hard 1524 01:21:02,680 --> 01:21:05,160 Speaker 1: to predict what's going to happen. And I think it's 1525 01:21:05,200 --> 01:21:07,200 Speaker 1: the same thing with Bernie's just all all of the 1526 01:21:07,320 --> 01:21:09,600 Speaker 1: normal rules that we that we think we know for 1527 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:13,479 Speaker 1: how politics works, they went out the window with Trump. 1528 01:21:13,760 --> 01:21:15,760 Speaker 1: With Trump, maybe they go out the window with Bernie too. 1529 01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:18,559 Speaker 1: The book is Church of Cowards, a wake up Call 1530 01:21:18,680 --> 01:21:22,320 Speaker 1: to complacent Christians Billable on Amazon Now.

Um, and you know 1566 01:23:03,920 --> 01:23:05,680 Speaker 1: it was pretty good. It's pretty good.

I've 1570 01:23:14,720 --> 01:23:17,400 Speaker 1: seen some of the new Disney stuff just out of curiosity. 1571 01:23:17,840 --> 01:23:21,599 Speaker 1: And when I say new, I mean the last ten years. Uh. 1572 01:23:21,920 --> 01:23:24,680 Speaker 1: It's just not, in my opinion, the same quality as 1573 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,120 Speaker 1: some of the original Disney grates. You know, lady in 1574 01:23:27,160 --> 01:23:31,320 Speaker 1: the tramp. Uh you know you go into a sort 1575 01:23:31,360 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 1: in the stone. Uh you know, all the all the 1576 01:23:34,960 --> 01:23:36,960 Speaker 1: other snow white, all those things. I think there are 1577 01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:39,720 Speaker 1: a different a different quality than and I tried to 1578 01:23:39,760 --> 01:23:42,800 Speaker 1: watch I tried to watch Moana. It's not good. Oh 1579 01:23:42,880 --> 01:23:45,960 Speaker 1: my wife loves that, really does. I couldn't have the song. 1580 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:49,479 Speaker 1: I couldn't get And I also, I don't know why 1581 01:23:49,960 --> 01:23:53,040 Speaker 1: what's up the newest toy story? That was quality? Yeah? 1582 01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:56,479 Speaker 1: I also I took I took a date a while 1583 01:23:56,520 --> 01:24:02,040 Speaker 1: back to at at the date's request to Frozen the Musical. Yes, 1584 01:24:02,280 --> 01:24:05,280 Speaker 1: did you enjoy it? Um? It was a nice date. 1585 01:24:06,160 --> 01:24:10,040 Speaker 1: I enjoyed the date. She is lovely the musical. I 1586 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:13,240 Speaker 1: don't even understand what the story is really supposed to be, 1587 01:24:14,520 --> 01:24:16,400 Speaker 1: so I haven't watched the car too, but I did 1588 01:24:16,520 --> 01:24:19,800 Speaker 1: go to the Broadway show, and it's not clear to 1589 01:24:19,880 --> 01:24:23,840 Speaker 1: me exactly. So she like freezes her sister and then 1590 01:24:23,920 --> 01:24:26,720 Speaker 1: she goes away because she's afraid that her power of 1591 01:24:26,880 --> 01:24:29,639 Speaker 1: freezing will be used too much. And then it turns 1592 01:24:29,640 --> 01:24:31,360 Speaker 1: out that her sister is going to marry some bad 1593 01:24:31,479 --> 01:24:33,920 Speaker 1: guy and she prevents him from it. I mean, it's 1594 01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:39,360 Speaker 1: like it's a mess. Kids love it, love it. I 1595 01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:42,000 Speaker 1: do not understand my wife's little cousin maybe three years old, 1596 01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:44,240 Speaker 1: only will dress in Frozen out. Yes, I mean, I 1597 01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:46,880 Speaker 1: actually think you could argue the best Disney movies. Beauty 1598 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:49,920 Speaker 1: and the Beast is a fantastic movie. I know people say, oh, 1599 01:24:49,960 --> 01:24:51,760 Speaker 1: but well that's a great movie. But I almost one 1600 01:24:51,840 --> 01:24:54,080 Speaker 1: best picture that was actually the best live action one. 1601 01:24:54,760 --> 01:24:58,559 Speaker 1: Oh really didn't seem a really good one with Hermione 1602 01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:01,439 Speaker 1: from Yeah, from from her Mary Potter. I mean, Lion 1603 01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:03,160 Speaker 1: King's amazing, A Lion King for what it is. I 1604 01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:06,080 Speaker 1: think it's a fantastic cartoon. Aladdin, that's actually one of 1605 01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:09,639 Speaker 1: Robin Williams rest in Peace, one of his best things. 1606 01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:12,799 Speaker 1: I mean, it's certainly up there with like Missus Doubtfire. 1607 01:25:13,240 --> 01:25:16,000 Speaker 1: Um so that Disney cartoons have been amazing and these, 1608 01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,040 Speaker 1: you know, these cultural icons, and I just feel like 1609 01:25:18,120 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 1: some of the more recent ones. I mean, I know 1610 01:25:20,320 --> 01:25:22,760 Speaker 1: kids love Frozen, though I don't know, I still it 1611 01:25:22,840 --> 01:25:25,280 Speaker 1: still makes money for these for the company. I still 1612 01:25:25,320 --> 01:25:29,360 Speaker 1: don't understand what the yeah anyway, So you know, I 1613 01:25:29,560 --> 01:25:31,080 Speaker 1: go around and I'm not going to talk anymore about 1614 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:32,639 Speaker 1: the Mandalorian, but if you haven't seen you haven't seen 1615 01:25:32,640 --> 01:25:34,960 Speaker 1: it yet, but I will point out these cartoons, the 1616 01:25:35,080 --> 01:25:37,599 Speaker 1: newer ones. They're they're not four year thirty eight year 1617 01:25:37,600 --> 01:25:39,760 Speaker 1: old man. No, No, I get that. But see what 1618 01:25:39,800 --> 01:25:42,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying though, is I can I can still appreciate 1619 01:25:42,360 --> 01:25:44,559 Speaker 1: like Lady in the Tramp even if you're an adult 1620 01:25:44,760 --> 01:25:49,880 Speaker 1: is great. It is through your childhood maybe, yeah, like 1621 01:25:50,120 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 1: you remember it and gives you that warm feeling that 1622 01:25:52,280 --> 01:25:54,920 Speaker 1: you're kid, or or you know, Rob the Robin Hood 1623 01:25:54,960 --> 01:25:56,680 Speaker 1: with the Robin Hood as a fox and if you know, 1624 01:25:56,760 --> 01:25:58,880 Speaker 1: like those are great cartoons are great to this day. 1625 01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:01,360 Speaker 1: So I just you know, so that's right. I don't 1626 01:26:01,400 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 1: have any of the emotional connection.

A corn has in fact 1640 01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:42,040 Speaker 1: ruled in favor of the administration. This just came down today. Um. 1641 01:26:42,439 --> 01:26:46,200 Speaker 1: The Second Circuit has allowed the Justice Department to withhold 1642 01:26:46,360 --> 01:26:50,920 Speaker 1: grants from New York City and seven states over sanctuary funding, 1643 01:26:51,880 --> 01:26:56,360 Speaker 1: reversing a federal judge's ruling from twenty eighteen. This is big, 1644 01:26:57,280 --> 01:26:59,640 Speaker 1: This is big. This is gonna make its way up 1645 01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:02,160 Speaker 1: to this court now I think, I mean the Supreme 1646 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:04,280 Speaker 1: Court has to decide to take it. But I could 1647 01:27:04,280 --> 01:27:07,400 Speaker 1: see this going all the way because shouldn't the federal 1648 01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:10,960 Speaker 1: government if it has a legal request, or if it 1649 01:27:11,040 --> 01:27:14,240 Speaker 1: has a legal request of states that it makes and 1650 01:27:14,400 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 1: it has discretionary funds that it gives them to help 1651 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:21,519 Speaker 1: with that, and then that state or city does not 1652 01:27:22,240 --> 01:27:26,000 Speaker 1: provide that assistance, doesn't the federal government as an entity 1653 01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:29,080 Speaker 1: then have the ability to pull back those funds. Isn't 1654 01:27:29,120 --> 01:27:32,080 Speaker 1: that federalism actually working the way that it's supposed to 1655 01:27:32,320 --> 01:27:34,599 Speaker 1: as long as it's tailored in that way. We give 1656 01:27:34,600 --> 01:27:37,080 Speaker 1: you law enforcement funds to help us, and we would 1657 01:27:37,120 --> 01:27:38,880 Speaker 1: like help on this thing. And it's legal for the 1658 01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 1: federal government to ask. This is all about a legal 1659 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:44,679 Speaker 1: immigration now, shouldn't there be the ability for the federal 1660 01:27:44,680 --> 01:27:48,479 Speaker 1: government to pull back those funds the fight over sanctuary cities, 1661 01:27:48,960 --> 01:27:51,560 Speaker 1: this is you know, the administration should focus in on this. 1662 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:54,479 Speaker 1: There was not a single question and debate last night 1663 01:27:55,000 --> 01:27:57,040 Speaker 1: that I can remember, at least, not a single question 1664 01:27:57,080 --> 01:28:02,720 Speaker 1: about immigration. Now one it's crazy, not one question about immigration. 1665 01:28:04,320 --> 01:28:06,760 Speaker 1: It's nuts. What's when you think? I mean, this is 1666 01:28:06,920 --> 01:28:10,679 Speaker 1: seri a huge issue, huge issue for security, for the economy, 1667 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:13,400 Speaker 1: for the future of this country. Everyone's been saying for 1668 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:15,240 Speaker 1: years and years now on both sides, you know, the 1669 01:28:15,280 --> 01:28:17,200 Speaker 1: system is broken. We got to fix it, we gotta 1670 01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:20,200 Speaker 1: do more. No. Instead, last night it was like a 1671 01:28:21,160 --> 01:28:24,320 Speaker 1: bunch of bickering and a wokeness competition at different parts. 1672 01:28:24,400 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 1: It was really that was really, as we've all agreed, 1673 01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:29,280 Speaker 1: who have watched the debate that I've talked to you 1674 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:32,360 Speaker 1: so far, it was a really weak showing. But this 1675 01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:36,040 Speaker 1: is something where the administration, I mean, Trump rose to 1676 01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:39,160 Speaker 1: prominence in the in the Republican field. He got ahead 1677 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:44,560 Speaker 1: of his competition on the issue of immigration. This is 1678 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:47,120 Speaker 1: where he separated himself and he was willing to say 1679 01:28:47,240 --> 01:28:51,479 Speaker 1: the stuff that people needed and wanted to hear about this. 1680 01:28:52,320 --> 01:28:53,639 Speaker 1: You know, he was the one who's saying, we used 1681 01:28:53,640 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 1: to all agree. You know, there used to be this 1682 01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:58,000 Speaker 1: consensus on building a wall. There were laws passed by 1683 01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:01,760 Speaker 1: Congress about building barriers at the southern border prevented legal entry. 1684 01:29:02,280 --> 01:29:04,400 Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, that's an athema. Now 1685 01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:06,960 Speaker 1: that's you know, beyond the pale. You're not allowed to 1686 01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:10,560 Speaker 1: have that talk, even you're never mind actually enacted. So 1687 01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:12,760 Speaker 1: I'm I'm happy to see that because this is also 1688 01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:15,560 Speaker 1: a Bernie Sanders. He's going to lose the left on 1689 01:29:15,600 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 1: this immigration issue if you push him. He's not. It's 1690 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:20,320 Speaker 1: not really clear where he stands in immigration because it 1691 01:29:20,400 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 1: conflicts with his his workers. You know, workers of the 1692 01:29:23,960 --> 01:29:26,680 Speaker 1: world unite the word I guess workers of America unite thing. 1693 01:29:27,120 --> 01:29:28,760 Speaker 1: So this will be interesting to see this play out. 1694 01:29:29,400 --> 01:29:32,839 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening to The Bus Sesson Show podcast.

We got dubstep roll Call intro, and 1698 01:29:56,720 --> 01:29:59,360 Speaker 1: I feel like dubstep has has faded out again. You know, 1699 01:29:59,439 --> 01:30:03,200 Speaker 1: every it's like every ten years people rediscover some form 1700 01:30:03,240 --> 01:30:06,040 Speaker 1: of you know what they call EDM electronic dance music, 1701 01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:12,519 Speaker 1: which I think technically is dubstep. Dubstep is right, it's 1702 01:30:12,560 --> 01:30:16,680 Speaker 1: like a subcategory DM. It's like communism is a subcategory 1703 01:30:16,720 --> 01:30:20,120 Speaker 1: of socialism. Jubstep is a subcategory of the DA. Same 1704 01:30:20,200 --> 01:30:22,120 Speaker 1: exact thing, right, same same thing. It's not how I 1705 01:30:22,200 --> 01:30:24,400 Speaker 1: think about things, um, but yeah, like I don't see 1706 01:30:24,439 --> 01:30:26,400 Speaker 1: that guy's scrillics anymore with the weird haircut and the 1707 01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:28,599 Speaker 1: cigarette angling. And I'm sure you're still around. Yeah, I'm 1708 01:30:28,640 --> 01:30:30,960 Speaker 1: probably making like a million dollars a night djaying for 1709 01:30:31,160 --> 01:30:33,960 Speaker 1: you know people all over like Austria, Like, yeah, play 1710 01:30:34,080 --> 01:30:37,240 Speaker 1: more of the indiam music. Yeah, I think the Chain 1711 01:30:37,320 --> 01:30:40,479 Speaker 1: Smokers have taken This is the best point of my life. Wait, 1712 01:30:40,640 --> 01:30:43,240 Speaker 1: the Chain Smokers, the band. Yeah, they're like they do 1713 01:30:43,360 --> 01:30:45,800 Speaker 1: remixes of songs and they always like collaborate. That's what 1714 01:30:45,880 --> 01:30:48,960 Speaker 1: they about, to collaborate with other artists. I had. I've 1715 01:30:49,040 --> 01:30:51,320 Speaker 1: had this experience now where I went back because Spotify, 1716 01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:53,320 Speaker 1: which is incredible, and actually, you know, I'm on Spotify 1717 01:30:53,400 --> 01:30:55,200 Speaker 1: because people from Team Buck made fun of me for 1718 01:30:55,320 --> 01:30:57,960 Speaker 1: using Pandora, still saying that I'm a grumpy old man, 1719 01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:02,439 Speaker 1: I shouldn't use Pandora. Pandora's for like gen X, not 1720 01:31:02,640 --> 01:31:05,280 Speaker 1: quite millennials, right, but in between boomers. And so if 1721 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,479 Speaker 1: you're born in like the mid late seventies, you're a 1722 01:31:07,560 --> 01:31:10,439 Speaker 1: Pandora user. If you're born in the eighties, you're supposed 1723 01:31:10,439 --> 01:31:14,160 Speaker 1: to be on Team Spotify. Yeah, and I don't. I'm 1724 01:31:14,200 --> 01:31:16,080 Speaker 1: on Apple Music. I get it for free through my 1725 01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 1: cell phone. Yeah. Okay, so there. But I went back 1726 01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:22,400 Speaker 1: and looked at at all the top songs. It's they're 1727 01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:24,560 Speaker 1: not the stuff for the last ten ten years. No 1728 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:26,760 Speaker 1: one's gonna be listening to in ten years. So when 1729 01:31:26,800 --> 01:31:28,720 Speaker 1: our parents, as much as I, as much as I 1730 01:31:28,760 --> 01:31:31,000 Speaker 1: feel like boomers, love to shove their music down the 1731 01:31:31,120 --> 01:31:33,800 Speaker 1: world's throat, you know, every car commercial, it's got to 1732 01:31:33,840 --> 01:31:36,519 Speaker 1: be like a rolling Stone song or you know whatever. 1733 01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:40,439 Speaker 1: The truth is that that music is timeless in a 1734 01:31:40,520 --> 01:31:42,000 Speaker 1: way that a lot of the stuff from the last 1735 01:31:42,000 --> 01:31:43,640 Speaker 1: ten or fifteen years I don't think will be. I 1736 01:31:43,720 --> 01:31:46,880 Speaker 1: think certain artists will be like Adele, you can throw 1737 01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:50,280 Speaker 1: out there a lady Gaga, maybe justin Timberlake. It's even 1738 01:31:50,439 --> 01:31:54,160 Speaker 1: like that. It's but it's a small subset of the overall. 1739 01:31:54,760 --> 01:31:57,320 Speaker 1: Whereas you know, if you put on there's there's a 1740 01:31:57,320 --> 01:31:58,960 Speaker 1: lot of times now I'll put on a song that 1741 01:31:59,280 --> 01:32:01,320 Speaker 1: is even an artist that people don't even really remember 1742 01:32:01,360 --> 01:32:02,639 Speaker 1: all that well. I mean, I think this is true 1743 01:32:02,640 --> 01:32:04,599 Speaker 1: of eighties music. For example, if you like eighties music, 1744 01:32:04,640 --> 01:32:06,800 Speaker 1: there's so many different songs and bands you can put 1745 01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 1: on that even if you don't know what it is, 1746 01:32:08,240 --> 01:32:09,360 Speaker 1: you're like, I like this. There's a lot of one 1747 01:32:09,439 --> 01:32:11,400 Speaker 1: hit wonders in the eighties, Oh for sure. Yeah, they 1748 01:32:11,479 --> 01:32:13,240 Speaker 1: look at eighties was kind of a funky time. But 1749 01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:16,200 Speaker 1: I just scrill x stub step. I remember that that 1750 01:32:16,360 --> 01:32:18,599 Speaker 1: was a huge for a little while, maybe ten years ago. 1751 01:32:18,640 --> 01:32:20,759 Speaker 1: And now that type of music, the remixes of actual 1752 01:32:20,800 --> 01:32:22,760 Speaker 1: songs is great for when you're working out. Yeah, that's 1753 01:32:22,840 --> 01:32:24,759 Speaker 1: that's true. Actually, you know, you know what my favorite 1754 01:32:24,760 --> 01:32:27,519 Speaker 1: band all time for working out is actually and their 1755 01:32:27,560 --> 01:32:31,000 Speaker 1: politics are horrible. They're they're like actual communists. I'm sure 1756 01:32:31,040 --> 01:32:34,679 Speaker 1: they're all millionaires, just like Sanders. Rage against the machine. 1757 01:32:35,479 --> 01:32:37,479 Speaker 1: If you're working out, rage against the machine gets it, 1758 01:32:37,640 --> 01:32:40,000 Speaker 1: gets it done. That's a completely different category of music. 1759 01:32:40,479 --> 01:32:42,680 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's like headbanging. Oh yeah, No, that's like 1760 01:32:42,840 --> 01:32:44,320 Speaker 1: that's like heavy. I mean I think it's I think 1761 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:46,479 Speaker 1: it's considered heavy. Mat Yeah. I don't think I can 1762 01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:49,479 Speaker 1: work out to that. No, but it's really Yeah, some 1763 01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:51,880 Speaker 1: of them out, We'll wick.

Look at this a literation I 1791 01:34:14,640 --> 01:34:17,880 Speaker 1: pull off? Yeah my popcorn ready, Yeah, that's roping Friday. Yeah, 1792 01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:20,559 Speaker 1: preducer Marx, You're like a look at him because when 1793 01:34:20,600 --> 01:34:24,000 Speaker 1: I go there, boom love, audience gonna boom me.

We'd have 1797 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:35,320 Speaker 1: to get out the bleep button though. All Right, Kyle 1798 01:34:35,479 --> 01:34:37,479 Speaker 1: is first up here in roll Call. Hey Buck, you 1799 01:34:37,560 --> 01:34:41,080 Speaker 1: have an awesome show. Thank you, Kyle. You a fantastic taste. 1800 01:34:41,080 --> 01:34:43,200 Speaker 1: I think all the political speculation that Bernie has the 1801 01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:45,759 Speaker 1: best shot of getting beaten by Trump is not correct. 1802 01:34:46,720 --> 01:34:49,160 Speaker 1: I believe Bernie has the best shot out of all 1803 01:34:49,200 --> 01:34:52,360 Speaker 1: the Democrats to win the presidency. The reason I say 1804 01:34:52,439 --> 01:34:55,400 Speaker 1: that is if Bernie gets screwed out of this nomination, 1805 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,640 Speaker 1: Bernie bros. Won't vote for the Democratic nominee. They may 1806 01:34:59,640 --> 01:35:01,799 Speaker 1: actually if you vote for Trump to send a message. 1807 01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:05,040 Speaker 1: There's a decent amount of evidence to support that theory. 1808 01:35:05,640 --> 01:35:08,559 Speaker 1: On the other hand, the rest of the Democrat voters 1809 01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:11,800 Speaker 1: would vote for Bernie because it's someone opposing Trump. I 1810 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:15,400 Speaker 1: don't like how the Republicans have been underestimating Bernie. That's 1811 01:35:15,439 --> 01:35:17,479 Speaker 1: what the Libs did to Trump, and we all know 1812 01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:20,360 Speaker 1: how that went. You and a few others are the 1813 01:35:20,520 --> 01:35:22,439 Speaker 1: only ones I hear not saying to write him off 1814 01:35:22,479 --> 01:35:25,080 Speaker 1: and to take him seriously. We won't lose if we 1815 01:35:25,160 --> 01:35:26,800 Speaker 1: get out and vote, but we are if we are 1816 01:35:26,920 --> 01:35:31,360 Speaker 1: overconfident in a victory, we will have a socialist in office. 1817 01:35:31,360 --> 01:35:35,240 Speaker 1: You're the man, buck Shields High. Thank you, Kyle. Yeah, look, 1818 01:35:35,240 --> 01:35:38,840 Speaker 1: I take Bernie. I take Bernie very seriously. I'm not 1819 01:35:38,880 --> 01:35:41,760 Speaker 1: write him off at all. I think that if there's 1820 01:35:41,800 --> 01:35:44,400 Speaker 1: any lesson from twenty sixteen we have to learn, it's 1821 01:35:44,840 --> 01:35:49,640 Speaker 1: the media doesn't know squat and American politics is a 1822 01:35:49,760 --> 01:35:52,240 Speaker 1: very different game than we had thought before. And you know, 1823 01:35:52,520 --> 01:35:56,599 Speaker 1: in this this new media environment, meaning social media, digital media, 1824 01:35:56,920 --> 01:36:00,000 Speaker 1: it's just ever the game has changed. The game has changed, 1825 01:36:00,280 --> 01:36:03,840 Speaker 1: and Bernie Sanders is an outsider at a time when 1826 01:36:03,880 --> 01:36:10,120 Speaker 1: it feels like outsiders are able to pull off things 1827 01:36:10,200 --> 01:36:12,639 Speaker 1: that completely fly in the face of the conventional wisdom. 1828 01:36:13,560 --> 01:36:16,040 Speaker 1: See Donald Trump, right, I mean this is this is 1829 01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:20,439 Speaker 1: pretty self evident. So yeah, I take them very seriously. 1830 01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:22,120 Speaker 1: I don't know if Bernie voters, I mean, this is 1831 01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:23,920 Speaker 1: what you're really getting at. I don't know if Bernie 1832 01:36:24,040 --> 01:36:28,240 Speaker 1: voters would really refuse to support the Democrat nominee or not. 1833 01:36:28,560 --> 01:36:31,719 Speaker 1: It's possible you could be right on that. I think 1834 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:36,800 Speaker 1: that it really is going to depend on what happens here. 1835 01:36:37,360 --> 01:36:41,840 Speaker 1: If someone were able to really legitimately surge, and I 1836 01:36:41,920 --> 01:36:43,920 Speaker 1: don't even know how that would be possible at this point. 1837 01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:47,040 Speaker 1: But like, let's say Biden. Let's say Biden managed to 1838 01:36:47,120 --> 01:36:50,439 Speaker 1: run the table and the contest and there wasn't some 1839 01:36:50,720 --> 01:36:54,560 Speaker 1: real theory about you know, moutheasons from the DNC. You know, 1840 01:36:54,640 --> 01:36:57,439 Speaker 1: there's not super delegates or something like that. I think 1841 01:36:57,479 --> 01:36:59,599 Speaker 1: Bernie voters would would probably go and vote for Biden 1842 01:36:59,600 --> 01:37:03,760 Speaker 1: because they hate Trump so much. Yeah, I do, But 1843 01:37:03,880 --> 01:37:06,200 Speaker 1: who knows. You know, we're all just guessing because we're 1844 01:37:06,240 --> 01:37:10,880 Speaker 1: talking about assessing trends that involve millions and millions and 1845 01:37:10,960 --> 01:37:14,639 Speaker 1: millions of individual decisions, and it's very it's very tough 1846 01:37:14,680 --> 01:37:18,679 Speaker 1: for anybody to get that right ahead of time. Everybody 1847 01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:21,439 Speaker 1: in the political prediction game needs to maintain a healthy, 1848 01:37:22,479 --> 01:37:27,760 Speaker 1: healthy dose of humility. Peter writes, Ron Konkoma does have 1849 01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:31,960 Speaker 1: a beach. It's around the lake. It's okay, nothing special. 1850 01:37:32,439 --> 01:37:35,559 Speaker 1: Most people go to Fire Island or Robert Moses. It's 1851 01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:37,360 Speaker 1: one of the few things I miss about Long Island. 1852 01:37:37,640 --> 01:37:41,040 Speaker 1: Here in Kingston. There isn't much beach wise. Long Island 1853 01:37:41,120 --> 01:37:44,639 Speaker 1: is an overpopulated nightmare waiting to happen. Anywhen they're after 1854 01:37:44,720 --> 01:37:47,519 Speaker 1: Superstorm Sandy knows it's a ticking time bomb. Ultimately, I 1855 01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:50,080 Speaker 1: went out of New York probably Pennsylvania. By mid twenty 1856 01:37:50,160 --> 01:37:52,599 Speaker 1: twenty one. Producer Mark what say you about this Long Island? 1857 01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:56,960 Speaker 1: Assess Long Island's awful really highest taxes in the entire country. 1858 01:37:57,120 --> 01:38:00,679 Speaker 1: And that's on Suffolk. Wow, between property axes and income 1859 01:38:00,720 --> 01:38:03,800 Speaker 1: tax all that, yeah high, it's overcrowded. The Long Alan 1860 01:38:03,840 --> 01:38:06,960 Speaker 1: Railroad is an abomination. It's off a place. What do 1861 01:38:06,960 --> 01:38:09,280 Speaker 1: you think I'm getting out? Yeah, I could never like 1862 01:38:09,439 --> 01:38:12,200 Speaker 1: raise a family there. Wow. Well I do know that 1863 01:38:13,280 --> 01:38:15,439 Speaker 1: getting a police so I know this because when I 1864 01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:17,439 Speaker 1: was in the MYPD and the cops would often talk 1865 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:21,320 Speaker 1: about how like getting a job as a law enforcement 1866 01:38:21,360 --> 01:38:24,200 Speaker 1: all as a cop in Nassau County, I think just 1867 01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:27,800 Speaker 1: the average starting salary is like one hundred and twenty grand, 1868 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:31,120 Speaker 1: and so becoming a police officer there, your your chance 1869 01:38:31,280 --> 01:38:34,800 Speaker 1: is like per application is like point oh one or something, 1870 01:38:35,080 --> 01:38:37,800 Speaker 1: and it's it's like impossible because because they're so highly paid, 1871 01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:39,559 Speaker 1: and the tax base has to be super high obviously 1872 01:38:39,600 --> 01:38:41,439 Speaker 1: to do that, no matter what they make, you redo 1873 01:38:41,520 --> 01:38:43,800 Speaker 1: the academy. I know somebody who was MYPD and was 1874 01:38:43,880 --> 01:38:46,880 Speaker 1: looking to maybe go to Nasar Suffolk. He wouldn't just 1875 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:49,679 Speaker 1: join the force like in any other force in the country. 1876 01:38:49,920 --> 01:38:51,720 Speaker 1: You have to re goo to the academy. Even though 1877 01:38:51,840 --> 01:38:53,680 Speaker 1: MYPD is probably the best to cap and you've heard 1878 01:38:53,680 --> 01:38:55,160 Speaker 1: that too, that they're super they're very high, like for 1879 01:38:55,240 --> 01:38:56,720 Speaker 1: what that said, very high salary. I think they have 1880 01:38:56,760 --> 01:38:59,439 Speaker 1: the highest starting laws. Can not have a high salary 1881 01:38:59,600 --> 01:39:02,599 Speaker 1: with those of those taxes and the property taxes. Yeah yeah, 1882 01:39:02,800 --> 01:39:05,439 Speaker 1: class of livings ridiculous online. Actually I went to so 1883 01:39:05,520 --> 01:39:09,679 Speaker 1: I was supposed to go to a big party for charity. 1884 01:39:09,720 --> 01:39:13,000 Speaker 1: I'll never forget this that a very very good friend 1885 01:39:13,000 --> 01:39:16,120 Speaker 1: of mine was throwing out in Suffolk County and the venue, 1886 01:39:16,560 --> 01:39:18,599 Speaker 1: which was like a party venue that you could rest 1887 01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:20,479 Speaker 1: sort of like for weddings or whatever. The venue got 1888 01:39:20,520 --> 01:39:24,240 Speaker 1: shut down the day before because the venue didn't think 1889 01:39:24,320 --> 01:39:27,000 Speaker 1: that they for whatever reason, they didn't think that they 1890 01:39:27,080 --> 01:39:31,280 Speaker 1: had to pay the local Suffolk you know, the there's 1891 01:39:31,320 --> 01:39:34,519 Speaker 1: like a liquor fee that you pay for the town 1892 01:39:35,080 --> 01:39:37,000 Speaker 1: that they didn't think they oh it's a private thing. 1893 01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:39,160 Speaker 1: But no, no, no, no, no, and noose Suffolk cops 1894 01:39:39,160 --> 01:39:42,160 Speaker 1: showed up and they were like, no, charity party, we 1895 01:39:42,760 --> 01:39:46,560 Speaker 1: care you pay the tax my man, there's fee or 1896 01:39:46,560 --> 01:39:49,519 Speaker 1: a tax fee everything.

All Strong Island there, you've never 1945 01:41:48,320 --> 01:41:50,280 Speaker 1: been out there, there aren't I mean, there are beautiful beaches, 1946 01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:52,400 Speaker 1: that's why people pay. A beautiful place, but you have 1947 01:41:52,520 --> 01:41:54,439 Speaker 1: to pay to bin. It's a little bit. It starts 1948 01:41:54,439 --> 01:41:56,080 Speaker 1: to feel a little bit sound a little like California. 1949 01:41:56,160 --> 01:41:58,760 Speaker 1: Too much traffic, too expensive, you know, by the coast. 1950 01:41:58,800 --> 01:42:02,280 Speaker 1: That's what's going on in California.

Never has common sense been 1954 01:42:09,640 --> 01:42:12,400 Speaker 1: such so widely spoken. On another note, I think the 1955 01:42:12,439 --> 01:42:15,120 Speaker 1: Republican Party should rename itself the Freedom Party. I think 1956 01:42:15,160 --> 01:42:16,720 Speaker 1: that would resonate it a lot better with voters. Just 1957 01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:18,519 Speaker 1: an idea of shield time. Well, Greg, thank you for 1958 01:42:18,560 --> 01:42:20,640 Speaker 1: the kind words about the show, and that's really an 1959 01:42:20,760 --> 01:42:22,439 Speaker 1: endorsement of what we do here that you feel like 1960 01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:24,880 Speaker 1: every day the show gets better and better.

I also though I was 1990 01:44:00,960 --> 01:44:04,639 Speaker 1: not a Black Panther fan at all as a movie, 1991 01:44:04,760 --> 01:44:07,600 Speaker 1: because I've probably looked at him with politics classes all. No, 1992 01:44:07,720 --> 01:44:10,599 Speaker 1: I I nope, that's not fair. Like I will say 1993 01:44:10,640 --> 01:44:13,840 Speaker 1: The Motorcycle Diaries, which is about the rise of che 1994 01:44:13,960 --> 01:44:17,679 Speaker 1: Guvara Ernesto Gavara.

The society is 2000 01:44:31,600 --> 01:44:33,360 Speaker 1: more advanced than any other society in the world. They 2001 01:44:33,360 --> 01:44:36,240 Speaker 1: have like special technology doesn't exist anywhere else, but they 2002 01:44:36,360 --> 01:44:39,280 Speaker 1: choose the leader by having like a blood sport deathmatch. 2003 01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:41,600 Speaker 1: Doesn't seem to add up. It's supposed to be like 2004 01:44:41,720 --> 01:44:43,960 Speaker 1: old tribal ways. Yeah, but but I mean, if you 2005 01:44:44,040 --> 01:44:46,320 Speaker 1: got the most advanced technology in the world, like, wouldn't 2006 01:44:46,320 --> 01:44:47,200 Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

And also the thing with the rhinos 2009 01:44:51,080 --> 01:44:53,400 Speaker 1: at the end, where like there's the cgi rhinos running 2010 01:44:53,400 --> 01:44:55,519 Speaker 1: over people. I wasn't into it. I'm just saying. I 2011 01:44:55,600 --> 01:44:57,760 Speaker 1: know everyone's supposed to love the movie Black Panther.

I 2029 01:45:45,680 --> 01:45:47,439 Speaker 1: don't know why Bernie feels a need to do that, 2030 01:45:47,640 --> 01:45:51,880 Speaker 1: but he's you know, it's not helping himself. It's not 2031 01:45:51,960 --> 01:45:56,400 Speaker 1: the right thing to do. Richard.

That is what love is. Those high schoolers 2034 01:46:01,479 --> 01:46:04,400 Speaker 1: behave better than these candidates and could moderate a debate 2035 01:46:04,479 --> 01:46:07,840 Speaker 1: better than CBS did. Did you catch where Bloomberg slipped 2036 01:46:07,880 --> 01:46:09,519 Speaker 1: up and said he bought the forty reps who took 2037 01:46:09,560 --> 01:46:12,040 Speaker 1: the house. That is Bloomberg. He thinks he can just 2038 01:46:12,160 --> 01:46:14,599 Speaker 1: buy the election. And this whole wealth tax thing, it's 2039 01:46:14,600 --> 01:46:16,960 Speaker 1: only going to be two percent at first.
