Speaker 2: at Anaheuser Busch, co founder Strive Asset Management, his new book,

14

Speaker 2: America's Favorite Beer.

15
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 1: And Anson. I appreciate you joining us here.

16
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: I would submit that the failed Dylan Mulvany bud Light deal,

17
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 2: the fact that they send her the bud Light cans him.

18
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:00,279
Speaker 1: Whatever you want to say.

19
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 2: Right around the March Madness Tournament, I believe two years

20
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 2: ago bud Light sales you can update me on them.

21
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 2: I believe are still down forty percent. Is this the

22
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 2: most destructive ad endorsement product? Relationship that has ever existed

23
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 2: in modern American capitalism. Can you think of a worst

24
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 2: one or is this the worst?

25
00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:25,960
Speaker 3: I mean, Clay, I think this is the worst one.

26
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe you could say that when there was

27
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,480
Speaker 3: New Coke, and New Coke came out in the nineteen

28
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,600
Speaker 3: eighties and then Matt plummeted. Everybody hated New Coke. The

29
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,959
Speaker 3: good thing about the Coke executive they should learned their lesson.

30
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 3: They say, hey, we screwed up, we apologize, and they

31
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,639
Speaker 3: went back to the old formula. And you know, Coke's

32
00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 3: doing fine. But that's one of the big problems here

33
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,360
Speaker 3: is that this company lost thirty percent of its sales

34
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 3: two years ago. It lost another ten percent of its

35
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:50,559
Speaker 3: sales last year with bud Life. It's still declining this year.

36
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: And one of the reasons is that still no one's

37
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 3: taking accountability for this. I mean, the CEO is still there.

38
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 3: There's been no apology, and that's why customers really haven't

39
00:01:58,080 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 3: returned here, which is crazy.

40
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: What would you do.

41
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,639
Speaker 2: Let's pretend that they came to you and they said, okay,

42
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: bud Light is your business. You have to in some

43
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: way make it relevant again for the audience that has

44
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: abandoned it.

45
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 1: Is there anything they.

46
00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 2: Could do that would as you point out, they're continuing

47
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: to decline down forty percent? Is the brand dead no

48
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 2: matter what? Or is there a way to bring it

49
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: back to life?

50
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 3: No? I mean actually think there's a way to bring

51
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 3: this back to life. And I get into this in

52
00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,840
Speaker 3: my book Last Call for Blood Light what you mentioned about.

53
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,959
Speaker 3: But I just think one of the fundamental problems is

54
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 3: is that this company, anhezerd Busch, it's no longer American owned.

55
00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 3: It was actually purchased by a European company called InBev

56
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:37,480
Speaker 3: about fifteen years ago, and then lots of mistakes were

57
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 3: made over that time period. The InBev company moved the

58
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,000
Speaker 3: corporate headquarters from kind of Saint Louis to New York City,

59
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,080
Speaker 3: brought in a lot of foreign executives that really didn't

60
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,400
Speaker 3: understand the US consumer. They adopted a lot of device

61
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 3: apology of policies of ESG and DEI. So a lot

62
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 3: of those problems happen. I think a lot of those

63
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 3: go away if they actually sell Annhezer Bush here in

64
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 3: the US back to US citizens. I mean, Warren Buffett

65
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,840
Speaker 3: and Berkshire Hathaway sell it to a consortium of firms

66
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,519
Speaker 3: like a Blackstone and Steve Schwartzman's group. Sell it to

67
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 3: one of those. I think the first thing they can do,

68
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 3: which I think would be good for this this European

69
00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 3: business that hasn't been able to really understand the US,

70
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:14,880
Speaker 3: and it'd be good for the business here, so they

71
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 3: could focus more here in the US. They could bring

72
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 3: in American executives, they could bring back I don't know,

73
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 3: a lot of the commercials that we all love. I

74
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,799
Speaker 3: think even most importantly is that they could tell their

75
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 3: customers that we were sorry, we screwed up, and that

76
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: was this old regime. We got rid of it, and

77
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 3: now we're moving forward with you know, kind of American regime,

78
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 3: American values, focused on our customer. We're not going to

79
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 3: get involved in any political silliness. So we got involved

80
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,080
Speaker 3: with over the last couple of years. I think that's

81
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:40,720
Speaker 3: the first step.

82
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 2: Why do you think so many brands have ad buyers

83
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: and marketing people who have no idea who actually consumes

84
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 2: their product. Isn't that really kind of the essence of

85
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 2: how you make a mistake like this? As you mentioned,

86
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 2: you moved from Saint Louis to New York City. I

87
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,960
Speaker 2: knew that bud Light was in real trouble, and I

88
00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 2: said this, and it's the case you go around to tailgates. Now, basically,

89
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,760
Speaker 2: no guy who throws a tailgate at a football game

90
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: is buying bud Light anymore because their buddies are gonna

91
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 2: make fun of them in the wake of the destruction

92
00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:15,720
Speaker 2: of the brand. But isn't this emblematic of larger issues.

93
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,840
Speaker 2: Whether it's with Target, whether it's with Disney, whether it's

94
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 2: with ESPN, the NBA. There are just a lot of

95
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,359
Speaker 2: brands out there that have no idea who their actual

96
00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: consumer is and as a result, they're completely alienating them.

97
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, Clai, I mean you're one hundred percent right about that.

98
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 3: This is not just an Anheuser Busch problem. Anheuser Busch

99
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 3: was the one that was holding the pin when this

100
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,960
Speaker 3: whole ESG DEI bubble pop two years ago, and they

101
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 3: were the first time that you saw that millions of

102
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 3: consumers ditched a brand that led to billions of dollars

103
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 3: of loss of shareholder value. And it's for the first

104
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:51,359
Speaker 3: time I think actually was a wake up call to

105
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 3: a lot of the broader corporations. I mean, you don't

106
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,920
Speaker 3: get the big rollback in ESG and Dei that you're

107
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 3: seeing right now without the whole Budline example, where you

108
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 3: all of a sudden is the least stame thing that

109
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 3: a company could do was to pander to a group

110
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 3: that wasn't it wasn't necessarily their customer base, and that

111
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,400
Speaker 3: they got a brand involved in them that wasn't authentically

112
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 3: bud Light. You know, bud like used to be about

113
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 3: sports and music and bringing folks together, never got involved

114
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 3: in controversial political issues. They lost sight of that because

115
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 3: they had marketing people based in New York and they

116
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,720
Speaker 3: used marketing based New York firms based in New York City.

117
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 3: And then that was like one of the bigger issues

118
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 3: that we saw really across corporate America. A lot of

119
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 3: these firms that were based in Saint Louis or in

120
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 3: Arkansas or Texas, all of a sudden, they were moving

121
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 3: a lot of their headquarters in New York, hiring New

122
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 3: York firms, taking in advice from a lot of New

123
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 3: York based asset management companies. Black Rocks a good example,

124
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 3: who was foicing an ESG and DEI agenda on them,

125
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 3: and so this led to a lot of problems, and

126
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,480
Speaker 3: you saw a lot of companies that lost their way

127
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 3: over the last couple of years. I'm actually pleased to

128
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 3: say that there's companies like Disney they're at least making

129
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 3: the right steps back in the right direction. They fired

130
00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,479
Speaker 3: their CEO, Bob Chapik, they brought back Bob Yger. Bob

131
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 3: Iger said, we're getting out of politics. We're not doing

132
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 3: it anymore. They've rolled back a lot of their DEI

133
00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 3: policies in recent weeks. Are they perfect, No, but at

134
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,640
Speaker 3: least that they've acknowledged that there was a problem. I

135
00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 3: hope we're seeing that more across corporate America. I think

136
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 3: Annezard Bushes just a little bit behind the eight ball

137
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 3: on getting there.

138
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 2: A lot of people said, we're talking to Anson fre

139
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: Erics from bud Light, former president there. He's got a

140
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 2: book out last call for bud Light. Usually people say, oh,

141
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 2: this is not going to last. Two years later, basically

142
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,479
Speaker 2: we're still dealing with the continued fallout for bud Light.

143
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,400
Speaker 2: Do you think they've been stunned by how toxic their

144
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: brand has become? Do you think they ever expected it

145
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 2: to go on this long? Is that why they didn't apologize.

146
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 2: They just kept hoping, Oh, this is going to go away,

147
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,560
Speaker 2: Oh this is going to go away, and in the

148
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 2: process their brand just vanished.

149
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean one hundred percent, that's what they thought,

150
00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 3: because they're really hadn't been a very successful i'll call

151
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,440
Speaker 3: it consumer boycott previous to this. You know, of course,

152
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,840
Speaker 3: people were upset when in the NFL. People were kneeling

153
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 3: in the NFL. But what are you going to do?

154
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 3: There's no other alternative on Sundays in the NFL. Yeah,

155
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 3: people were upset Disney when Disney got involved in front

156
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 3: of rights issues in Florida. But you know, if your

157
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 3: kids want to go to Disney World and not a

158
00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 3: lot of alternatives, bud Light was uniquely susceptible to this

159
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 3: massive boycott really for two reasons. As one is that

160
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 3: they have a commoditized brand, where everywhere there's bud Light,

161
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 3: there's also Miller Lite and cores Light at the exact

162
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 3: same price. And then secondarily, people could actually see the

163
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:23,040
Speaker 3: impact of this boycott. Every single week, there's sales data

164
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 3: from retailers like Walmart and Kroger in seven to eleven

165
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,120
Speaker 3: that gets reported, So every week you were seeing in

166
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 3: real time the bud Light sales were down ten percent,

167
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,120
Speaker 3: twenty percent, thirty percent, forty percent. And then with the

168
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 3: effect of social media, you had everybody that was posting

169
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,240
Speaker 3: photos and videos online of like the bud Light line

170
00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:42,520
Speaker 3: at a baseball game empty and a cores lightline thirty deep.

171
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 3: And so that has just had this big impact on

172
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 3: the business that they didn't realize how susceptible they were

173
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 3: because for ninety five percent of the American population, they

174
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 3: can't tell the difference between bud Light, Miller Lite cores Light.

175
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,640
Speaker 3: The only thing that differentiates them is their brand. And

176
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: bud Light used to be that fun sports music back

177
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 3: barbecuing kind of like Americana brand that you're talking about.

178
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 3: All the guys used to drink at tailgates as the

179
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 3: most acceptable brand of the biggest beer brand, and then

180
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 3: when they lost that identity and all of a sudden,

181
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 3: it became this almost like brand like Ben and Jerry's.

182
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 3: Where are they advocating for certain social issues and more

183
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 3: progressive causes by getting involved with Dylan Mulvanium and not

184
00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,080
Speaker 3: even being able to articulate to the customer what the

185
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: brand stands for moving forward. I mean, you remember that

186
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:27,200
Speaker 3: right after this happened. Their CEO had multiple botched attempts

187
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 3: of trying to talk about bud Light, never apologize their

188
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 3: loyal customer base that was called stratteny out of touch,

189
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 3: nor talked the more progressive customer base and said, you know, hey,

190
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:37,560
Speaker 3: we're going to be more like Ben and Jerry's. And

191
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 3: I don't know, when you walk in the middle of

192
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 3: a cultural battlefield, they ended up getting shot at from

193
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 3: both sides.

194
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:44,840
Speaker 2: No, and I think that's a really important part here

195
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 2: about the commoditized brand nature. Chick fil A got ripped

196
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,880
Speaker 2: to the high heavens and even people out there that

197
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 2: are super left wing or like, you know, I might

198
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 2: not agree with Chick fil A on whatever LGBTQI issue

199
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,160
Speaker 2: there is, but they got a great chicken sandwich and

200
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,560
Speaker 2: so I'm gonna keep showing up.

201
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: I love their waffle fries.

202
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to give a free advertisement for Chick

203
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 2: fil A, but I love the brand and it's hard

204
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: for me to think of something they could do that

205
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 2: would make me change my decision. But to your point,

206
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,400
Speaker 2: for a lot of people who go into a grocery

207
00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 2: store or go into a gas station and are gonna

208
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,320
Speaker 2: grab a twelve or a twenty four pack of a beer.

209
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,199
Speaker 2: There isn't a lot of difference between Miller, Lite, Bud Light,

210
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 2: course Light. I know I'm gonna get blown up by

211
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 2: guys out there, like I can tell a tremendous difference.

212
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 2: I disagree like Guinness, right, you know when you're drinking

213
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: a Guinness. You know when you're drinking a certain type

214
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,200
Speaker 2: of beer that has a different flavor and taste. I

215
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: think for most people, light beer is relatively easily replaceable.

216
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,960
Speaker 2: Let me ask you this question, and I think that's

217
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 2: an important part about why the boycott works so well.

218
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: It was an easy change for people to make. Target

219
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 2: smart guy. I really like him. James auth Meyer now

220
00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,319
Speaker 2: the attorney general in the state of Florida. One of

221
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 2: the first things he's done is file a lawsuit against Target,

222
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 2: going after them for burning up a great deal of

223
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 2: shareholder value, he says, by basically going all in with

224
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 2: the tuck, bathing suits, everything else. What you do now

225
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 2: I think is important. But in some way is that

226
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,960
Speaker 2: the effective method to get businesses back to just saying, hey,

227
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 2: can you just serve everybody? Democrat, Republican, Independent, You don't

228
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,400
Speaker 2: need to go after this woke agenda. Is there a

229
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 2: lawsuit mechanism in your mind that could be pursued and

230
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: should be pursued.

231
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 3: I mean, there is a lawsuit mechanism. And if you

232
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 3: go back, really the lawsuits that are coming out right

233
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,480
Speaker 3: now goes back to really the Civil Rights Act of

234
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 3: nineteen sixty four, which essentially says that you cannot discriminate

235
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 3: based off of a race, sex, gender, national origin, etc.

236
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:51,640
Speaker 3: And a lot of retailers, I mean, Target was one

237
00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 3: of these, and in the post George Floyd era that

238
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 3: they came out with a lot of essentially racist policies

239
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,560
Speaker 3: against certain people. They said that you are going to

240
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 3: hire a certain quota of people that look this way.

241
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 3: Target was allocating shelf space at their stores based off

242
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 3: of race, sex, color. That just doesn't make any sense

243
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 3: in the society we're living in. I mean, we live

244
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 3: in a meritocracy. You should be able to put the

245
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 3: products in the shelf that sell. That's the right thing

246
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 3: for the customer, that's the right thing for your shareholder

247
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,520
Speaker 3: value as well. I think that's the bigger issue that

248
00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 3: targets facings like why are you pushing forward with a

249
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,960
Speaker 3: certain really social type agenda as opposed to putting what sells,

250
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 3: And I think that the bigger issue with Target was

251
00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 3: you know, when you walk into a Target store, their

252
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:34,120
Speaker 3: most valuable real estate is that first big display area

253
00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:36,160
Speaker 3: right when you walk in. And when they're putting tuck

254
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 3: friendly bathing suits across every single Target across America, well,

255
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 3: that's not what the majority of their customer base wants,

256
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,840
Speaker 3: and that's not good for shareholders, not good for shareholder value. Yes,

257
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 3: I think the lawsuits will make sure that they're abiding

258
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:49,079
Speaker 3: by sort of the Civil Rights Act and making sure

259
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 3: that they're not discriminating against people. I think even more importantly,

260
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 3: I think that the American consumer has gone to Walmart's,

261
00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 3: has gone to other areas, and Target stock price has

262
00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 3: been in the tank over the last year or two

263
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 3: this controversy. I think what's going to turn around is

264
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,160
Speaker 3: again Target recmmitting this fundamental principles of serving their customers,

265
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:08,599
Speaker 3: bringing customers back by giving more of the products of

266
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: what they want. I think that's the more effective way

267
00:12:10,559 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 3: to get this thing turned around. And consumers again just

268
00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 3: vote with your wallets. That's the more effective way to

269
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: get back to serving all customers.

270
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 2: The book is the last call for bud Light Anson

271
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,320
Speaker 2: Freeric's former president, an Heuser Busch speaking with us. Last

272
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 2: question for you on a positive side, is every major

273
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 2: brand in America now having meetings on a regular basis

274
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,720
Speaker 2: where they say, whatever we do, let's make sure we're

275
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 2: not the next bud Light have. Does the American consumer

276
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:40,440
Speaker 2: sent a huge and important message to corporate America by

277
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 2: not buying bud Light.

278
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,240
Speaker 3: I think they have the most. Importantly, I think most

279
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,679
Speaker 3: brands right now are having a conversation about just how

280
00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 3: do you build trust with the consumer, and you do

281
00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 3: it by being authentic and men. You mentioned Chick fil

282
00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:55,760
Speaker 3: A earlier, like I know on Sunday's Chick fil A

283
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,719
Speaker 3: is going to be closed. That's like, you know, I

284
00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 3: can trust that it's going to be closed. And I

285
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 3: also know it's because the family who owns it. I mean,

286
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:04,240
Speaker 3: they're like you know, Seventh day Adventists. That's their right.

287
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,079
Speaker 3: They can be closed, they can do what they want

288
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,439
Speaker 3: to do, they can advocate for policies they want. That's

289
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,440
Speaker 3: chick fil A. Let Chick fil A beat Chick fil A.

290
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 3: That's what makes it unique, interesting and different. And the

291
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:14,839
Speaker 3: same thing with bud Light. Like one of the things

292
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,000
Speaker 3: that was just authentic and true about bud Light is

293
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 3: that it was this funny, spratty, you know, kind of

294
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 3: kind of a inside humor type of brand. Let bud

295
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 3: Light be bud Light, it didn't need to be Ben

296
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,240
Speaker 3: and Jerry's by getting involved in every single social issue,

297
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 3: and I think that's more the conversation that's being had.

298
00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 3: That's what my book talks a lot about, is about

299
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 3: that authenticity, getting back to trust with brands, building that

300
00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 3: back in corporate America. And I think that we're starting

301
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 3: to see the pendulum swing back. I'm optimistic that it

302
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,480
Speaker 3: will continue to happen. That'd be good for I think

303
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,680
Speaker 3: American businesses, American shareholder capitalism, and I think it'll be

304
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 3: better for democracy as well if we're keeping businesses out

305
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:47,960
Speaker 3: out of politics.

306
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:49,200
Speaker 1: Check it out.

307
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 2: Last call for bud Light, Anson Freerics, appreciate the time,

308
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 2: have a good weekend.

309
00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 3: Thanks CUI, have a good one for sure.

310
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:58,800
Speaker 2: Look, Legacy Box has helped more than a million and

311
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 2: a half families out there their memories. They specialize in

330
00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 2: he's got the governor's all visiting with him at the

331
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,400
Speaker 2: White House, and I want to play this cut for you.

332
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 2: We'll take some calls as we roll through the final

333
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:29,160
Speaker 2: hour here. But the governor of Maine is refusing to

334
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:34,120
Speaker 2: follow the regulation Trump signed saying men can't compete in

335
00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,000
Speaker 2: women's sports. That doesn't seem like a really complicated regulation

336
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 2: to follow, But Trump, just to the governor of Maine's face,

337
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 2: called her out.

338
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:48,000
Speaker 1: Listen to this. It just happened.

339
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 4: D NCAA has complied immediately, by the way, that's good.

340
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 4: But I understand Maine is the Maine here, the governor

341
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 4: of Man. Are you not going to comply with it?

342
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 2: I will stay federal law.

343
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 4: Well, we are the federal law. Well you better do it.

344
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 4: You better do it because you're not going to get

345
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 4: any federal funding at all if you don't. And by

346
00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,920
Speaker 4: the way, your population, even though it's somewhat liberal orlo,

347
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 4: I did very well there. Your population doesn't want men

348
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 4: playing in women's sports. So you better comply because otherwise

349
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 4: you're not getting any federal funding. See call every state good.

350
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,640
Speaker 4: I'll see you and could I look forward to that.

351
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 4: That should be a really easy one. And enjoy your

352
00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:28,760
Speaker 4: life after governor, because I don't think you'll be an

353
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:29,800
Speaker 4: elected politics.

354
00:16:30,960 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: Ooh, man, that is incredible. That just happened.

355
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 2: The governor of Maine is saying she will see Trump

356
00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: in court over whether men should be able to play

357
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 2: women's sports. This is emblematic I think of the Trump

358
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:53,480
Speaker 2: derangement syndrome that has taken over in the Democrat Party.

359
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 2: They are taking constantly positions that twenty percent of the

360
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 2: population agrees with and fighting with Trump over them.

361
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:04,360
Speaker 1: Of all the things.

362
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 2: You could disagree with Trump on in Maine, can you

363
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 2: imagine saying I'm gonna fight to the death over whether

364
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 2: men can compete in women's sports. We got a lot

365
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,359
Speaker 2: of people listening in Maine, and Trump is right. I

366
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 2: believe he only lost Maine by about six or seven

367
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 2: points if I remember the math, meaning a solid forty

368
00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:28,240
Speaker 2: five percent ish or forty six percent of Maine voters

369
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 2: support Trump.

370
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:35,240
Speaker 1: But even in Maine, this is like a ninety ten issue.

371
00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 2: And for this to be the ground that Democrats have decided,

372
00:17:40,040 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 2: this is where we're putting our feet in. This is

373
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 2: what we're not gonna give any ground on. I just

374
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,880
Speaker 2: I can't believe this is real. That was a masterclass

375
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 2: that we just played. That just happened a few minutes

376
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,320
Speaker 2: ago of Trump with the main governor in the White House. Look,

377
00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:58,119
Speaker 2: it's coming into the weekend. You're gonna have great meals

378
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:02,040
Speaker 2: with your family. How about upgrade with some American meat

379
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 2: fish delivered right to your door.

380
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 1: Now, you guys know, I'm not a cook.

381
00:18:05,480 --> 00:18:08,199
Speaker 2: I can't make anything out there, but my wife is

382
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:11,600
Speaker 2: a great cook. Fortunately enough for our boys, they are

383
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 2: getting good ranchers. She is doing a fabulous job taking

384

00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 2: to many of you out there. I just played for you.

398
00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 2: Trump going head to head with the Democrat governor of

399
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 2: Maine over whether men should be allowed to play in

400
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 2: women's sports. I can't believe that that is the policy

401
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 2: that has been adopted by the Democrat Party. But as

402
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:29,920
Speaker 2: we were in break more breaking news los Angeles Mayor

403
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,680
Speaker 2: Karen Bass. We talked about her earlier this week for

404
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:38,200
Speaker 2: being virtually absent with the wildfires. In fact, we played

405
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,119
Speaker 2: a clip for you where she said they were doing

406
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:47,320
Speaker 2: an investigation into why she decided to be in Ghana

407
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 2: as opposed to in Los Angeles when there was deadly

408
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:55,440
Speaker 2: wildfires potentially on the horizon. Well, now she is trying

409
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,200
Speaker 2: to shift the blame. This just happened in the last

410
00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 2: few minutes. Aaron Bass announced she has fired the Los

411
00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:09,320
Speaker 2: Angeles Fire Department chief Kristin Crowley, effective immediately, and she's

412
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 2: going to hold a press conference soon. Rick Caruso, who

413
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:19,640
Speaker 2: ran against Karen Bass for mayor of Los Angeles, has

414
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 2: weighed in already. This is what he said on Twitter

415
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 2: slash x. It's very disappointing Mayor Bass has decided to

416
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:34,000
Speaker 2: fire Chief Kristin Crowley. Chief Crowley served Los Angeles well

417
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:39,960
Speaker 2: and spoke honestly about the severe and profoundly ill conceived

418
00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:44,080
Speaker 2: budget cuts. The Bass administration made to the LA Fire

419
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 2: Department that courage to speak the truth was brave and

420
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:52,439
Speaker 2: I admire her honesty and a high city official should

421
00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:56,680
Speaker 2: not be a firing offense. The mayor's decision to ignore

422
00:20:56,720 --> 00:21:00,520
Speaker 2: the warnings and leave the city was hers alone. This

423
00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 2: is a time for city leaders to take responsibility for

424
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 2: their actions and their decisions. We need real leadership, not

425
00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 2: more blame passing. That is Rick Caruso, who was in

426
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 2: the runoff with Karen Bass, and you'll remember Elon Musk

427
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 2: came out and said, I think thousands more people would

428
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 2: still have their homes if Rick Caruso had been in

429
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 2: charge instead of Karen Bass. And the evidence for that

430
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 2: is that Rick Caruso was able to keep his shopping

431
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 2: centers in the Pacific Palisades area from burning down because

432
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,199
Speaker 2: he had private support to try to ensure that the

433
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 2: flames didn't spread to his buildings. And the expectation is

434
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 2: that he wouldn't have been in Ghana and he might

435
00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:48,840
Speaker 2: have had the entire LA Fire Department mobilized in a

436
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 2: way to allow them to fight these fires. He may

437
00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 2: not have made the cuts. And this is important and

438
00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 2: maybe our team can go back and find the audio

439
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:02,119
Speaker 2: because there was a viral store suggesting that Karen Bass

440
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,640
Speaker 2: had fired this fire department chief beforehand, because the fire

441
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 2: department chief said publicly, we didn't have the resources to

442
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: be able to fight this. And so this is again

443
00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 2: major breaking news as the fallout from the LA wildfires continues.

444
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 2: Karen Bass, mayor of Los Angeles, trying to find someone

445
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,160
Speaker 2: to blame for the failure of the city of Los

446
00:22:26,200 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 2: Angeles to respond and protect its citizens' homes, and so

447
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 2: she is now saying the fire chief is fired. We'll

448
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 2: pull that clip because I think this is ultimately going

449
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 2: to come down to an argument over who's to blame.

450
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 1: Was it the fire chief or was it the.

451
00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,720
Speaker 2: Mayor who was more culpable in what I think almost

452
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: everyone out there, Democrat, Republican, Independent in the LA area

453
00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 2: and beyond acknowledges was a completely failed response to those

454
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 2: awful wildfires that came through recently.

455
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 1: A bunch of you went a weigh in. We'll take

456
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 1: some of your calls.

457
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 2: To close up the Friday edition of the show, Chris

458
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 2: and Sanford, Maine. I just played the clip of the

459
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:13,160
Speaker 2: Democrat governor of Maine arguing with Donald Trump about whether

460
00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,240
Speaker 2: men should be able to play women's sports.

461
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:17,680
Speaker 1: What do you think?

462
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 2: What's your read on the ground there in Maine for

463
00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 2: how this is going to play Trump versus the governor

464
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:23,040
Speaker 2: over this issue.

465
00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 5: First of all, I'd like to thank you guys for

466
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,440
Speaker 5: living the dream that Rush knew you guys could.

467
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:31,640
Speaker 1: Well. Thank you so much.

468
00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 2: We're honored every single day to sit in front of

469
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,520
Speaker 2: these microphones and it's a tremendous privilege to talk with

470
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:36,959
Speaker 2: all of you.

471
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 1: So thank you for saying that.

472
00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,240
Speaker 5: So one thing I just wanted to touch base on is

473
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,959
Speaker 5: this this whole thing about the girls and you know,

474
00:23:45,080 --> 00:23:49,080
Speaker 5: being totally overrun by these these guys. Right, it's girls

475
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 5: and guys. There's only two in the world, and the

476
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:53,919
Speaker 5: two and science only.

477
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 1: Shows as only two genders.

478
00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,880
Speaker 2: We agree, by the way, and most of the audience

479
00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 2: out there, I would imagine does as well.

480
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,680
Speaker 1: There's boys and girls. Yes, continue And I moved.

481
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 5: To Maine out of Massachusetts to get away from the

482
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 5: nanny state. I came to Maine because, believe it or not,

483
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 5: there's a lot more of what I would consider closet

484
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,560
Speaker 5: Trump supporters up here than you would like to realize.

485
00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:20,240
Speaker 5: I've surrounded myself but it's been very easy to surround

486
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:23,720
Speaker 5: myself that people believe and not taking this away from

487
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:27,719
Speaker 5: the girls that try so hard. Yes, they get up

488
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:29,880
Speaker 5: four or five sixty seven in the morning to get

489
00:24:29,920 --> 00:24:33,679
Speaker 5: to these practices, the meats, and they turn around and

490
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 5: they see this guy with a ball sack beating them.

491
00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 5: They're out of the water first. It's not fair. It's

492
00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 5: just not fair. A friend of mine, I kind of

493
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 5: like to say so, but I've been supporting a guy

494
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:52,399
Speaker 5: called Stewart's Shella for several years now. Him and I

495
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 5: have had this conversation. We knew it was going to

496
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 5: come to this, right and Janet Mills, I hope she

497
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,160
Speaker 5: does exactly what Trump says and has a good time

498
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 5: trying to find a job when she finishes.

499
00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 2: Thank you for the call. We'll open up if other

500
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 2: people from Maine want to weigh in. What I would

501
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:14,439
Speaker 2: say in general about this is it is insane to

502
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 2: me that it has become Democrat Party orthodoxy to support

503
00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 2: men identifying as women being able to win women's championships.

504
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: And I would implore the Senate to take up this

505
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:33,919
Speaker 2: bill that passed the House. Only two Democrat representatives in

506
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 2: the entire country signed on to a bill that said

507
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 2: you should be competing in all sports based on the

508
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 2: gender on your birth certificate. The fact that the governor

509
00:25:45,520 --> 00:25:50,119
Speaker 2: of Maine would be going to war and saying bragging,

510
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,600
Speaker 2: I'll see you in court because she's refusing to follow

511
00:25:54,680 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 2: a federal directive is political suicide to me. Now, I

512
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,680
Speaker 2: will say this, the reason the Senate needs to act

513
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 2: is the force of Donald Trump's pen and executive order

514
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:13,800
Speaker 2: is strong and powerful, but you also need to undergird

515
00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:18,200
Speaker 2: it with the support of Congress because when you pass

516
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 2: a bill that codifies what Trump is saying. To the

517
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 2: credit of the NCAA, they have followed this rule, many

518
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 2: states have, But until the federal legislation has passed, there's

519
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,879
Speaker 2: going to be an argument about whether Trump has the

520
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 2: executive authority to undertake this action. I think he does

521
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 2: from a legal perspective, but that's what the governor of

522
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,919
Speaker 2: Maine is saying when she's saying I'll see you in court.

523
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 2: Without Congress having stepped in and taken this act, she's

524
00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 2: going to argue that Trump, unilaterally by executive order, doesn't

525
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 2: have the authority to mandate what he is And again,

526
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:01,200
Speaker 2: the Senate, John Thune bring this up on the Senate floor,

527
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 2: and I give credit to Trump.

528
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 1: To me, this is a brilliant rhetorical tactical move.

529
00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,840
Speaker 2: He said, is the governor of Maine here, and he

530
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,639
Speaker 2: called her out directly to her face. I think we

531
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,159
Speaker 2: still have that audio, but if you haven't heard it,

532
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 2: it's extraordinary because it crystallizes can be hard to ignore.

533
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:27,240
Speaker 2: It crystallizes Trump's perspective and the Democrat perspective in one

534
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:30,639
Speaker 2: SoundBite that is going to be reverberating everywhere. Let me

535
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,040
Speaker 2: play this one more time and then we'll take some

536
00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,359
Speaker 2: calls to close up the Friday edition of the program.

537
00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:40,360
Speaker 2: But this just happened in the White House. Trump versus

538
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 2: the Democrat governor of Maine over the question of can

539
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 2: Maine continue to allow men who identify as women to

540
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 2: compete in athletics in their state? The governor says they can.

541
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 2: Trump says they can't.

542
00:27:54,359 --> 00:27:58,680
Speaker 4: Listen, DANCAAA has complied immediately, by the way. That's good,

543
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 4: But I understand Maine is the main here, the governor

544
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 4: of Maine out here. Are you not going to comply

545
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 4: with it?

546
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 2: Federal law?

547
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 4: Well, I'm we are the federal law. Well you better

548
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 4: do it. You better do it, because you're not going

549
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 4: to get any federal funding at all if you don't.

550
00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 4: And by the way, your population, even though it's somewhat

551
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 4: liberal orlow, I did very well there. Your population doesn't

552
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 4: want men playing in women's sports. So you better you

553
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,880
Speaker 4: better comply because otherwise you're not getting any any federal funding.

554
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 4: See every state, good, I'll see you, and could I

555
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,919
Speaker 4: look forward to that. That should be a really easy one.

556
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:35,280
Speaker 4: And enjoy your life after governor, because I don't think

557
00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 4: you'll be an elected politics.

558
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: Amazing, This is so incredible. Trump set this up.

559
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,000
Speaker 2: He knew the governor of Maine was there, he knew

560
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 2: that she was defying him in the White House. That

561
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,800
Speaker 2: couldn't have gone any better for him. He just took

562
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:03,240
Speaker 2: an eighty moving towards nine percent issue that all sorts

563
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:08,520
Speaker 2: of rational people guys. Sixty six percent roughly of Democrats

564
00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 2: agree with Trump on this issue. It's like ninety four

565
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: or ninety five to five for Republicans. Two thirds of

566
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 2: Democrats agree with him this according to New York Times poll,

567
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,640
Speaker 2: it's not me just like tossing out things. Eighty percent nationwide,

568
00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 2: including roughly two thirds of Democrats and Maine to Trump's point,

569
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:31,800
Speaker 2: is not a state that he lost by twenty some

570
00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 2: odd points. Maine could vote Republican in twenty twenty eight.

571
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 2: It's up there with New Jersey, Virginia, states New Mexico

572
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:48,120
Speaker 2: that were not that far away from flipping red five

573
00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:50,440
Speaker 2: to six points, kind of there in the margin.

574
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,800
Speaker 1: You talk to the Trump team, they.

575
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,960
Speaker 2: Say, Man, if we had had the money that Kamala had,

576
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 2: if we'd had the one and a half billion dollars

577
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 2: that Kamala raised, we could one New Jersey. We could

578
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 2: have won Virginia. We would have been able to be

579
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,560
Speaker 2: more aggressive in the way that we spent money. Right now,

580
00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 2: look at what's going on. They're trying to flip the

581
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 2: New Jersey governor's race to red. Scott Presler did all

582
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,080
Speaker 2: the work to try to flip Pennsylvania back red. He did,

583
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 2: But he's now got a major project underway to register

584
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 2: as many people in New Jersey as possible to flip

585
00:30:25,560 --> 00:30:28,560
Speaker 2: this back. How do you flip it back by being

586
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,280
Speaker 2: on the right side of an eighty twenty issue, By

587
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,240
Speaker 2: being on the right side of an issue that two

588
00:30:33,280 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 2: thirds of Democrats actually agree with you on, that isn't

589
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 2: even remotely political Trump has taken advantage of the Democrat

590
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 2: Trump derangement syndrome that they have decided whatever Trump says,

591
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 2: they oppose, and think about the things that they're opposing. Now,

592
00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 2: men in men's sports, women and women's sports. They're opposed

593
00:30:56,120 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 2: to that wasting fraud in the federal government, shutting down

594
00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:06,920
Speaker 2: the southern border, deporting violent criminals. Trump is choosing things

595
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 2: that substantial majorities of the American public agree with him

596
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 2: on that aren't even historically political in nature, being on

597
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 2: the right side of them, and Democrats are crazily lining

598
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,960
Speaker 2: up to oppose him, and we just got it crystallized

599
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:27,120
Speaker 2: directly from the White House. It has now become Democrat

600
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 2: Party orthodoxy that men pretending to be women are able

601
00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:34,600
Speaker 2: to win women's championships.

602
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 1: It's crazy.

603
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 2: And speaking of championships, unfortunately, we lost to Canada yesterday

604
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 2: three to two in overtime. A lot of you watched

00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,320
Speaker 2: for hosting us down here the past several days. We

Speaker 2: back in Nashville on Monday. With the weather, we'll be

629
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 2: nowhere near as nice as it has been down here.

630
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,360
Speaker 2: Buck on his way out to Colorado for a speaking engagement.

631
00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 1: Several of you want to weigh in.

632
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 2: Jane in Banger, Maine, what do you think about the

633
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 2: conflict you just heard straight up from the White House

634
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,080
Speaker 2: between your governor and the President.

635
00:33:24,920 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 6: Yeah, I play great talking to you today. I'm a

636
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 6: Native manor I have lived here most of my life,

637
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,719
Speaker 6: and the only reason Janet Mills was elected was because

638
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 6: of the southern third of the state, which includes Portland,

639
00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,840
Speaker 6: our largest city, probably two thirds the northern two thirds

640
00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 6: of the state of the main overwhelmingly supports President Trump,

641
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 6: and I dare say that even amongst my Democrat friends,

642
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,040
Speaker 6: they don't support what she's trying to do. And she,

643
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 6: I don't know. You probably aren't aware. She is an

644
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 6: attorney and at one point in a previous Democrat administration,

645
00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:07,680
Speaker 6: under a Democrat governor, she was actually Maine's attorney general,

646
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 6: and her skills I think are a lot greater in

647
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,440
Speaker 6: her mind than they are in reality.

648
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 2: Well, let's be honest. I thank you for calling in.

649
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 2: I mean, how good of skills would you have? To

650
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 2: be to argue in your state of Maine. You say

651
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 2: you've been there your whole life that men who pretend

652
00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,480
Speaker 2: to say that their women should be able to win

653
00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:31,560
Speaker 2: women's championships. Do you think this is something that the

654
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 2: people of Maine believe?

655
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 6: Absolutely not absolutely not absolutely not, Thank you, tend to

656
00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:46,200
Speaker 6: be filled with common sense. In Amen, there's no part

657
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:47,720
Speaker 6: of it that even makes sense.

658
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:50,040
Speaker 1: Thank you for the call.

659
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 2: Uh Again, I think this was brilliant strategically of Trump.

660
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 2: I think he picked Maine's governor. He's talking to all

661
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 2: the governors there, and he knows, again, Maine is close

662
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 2: to a fifty to fifty state. He knows that this

663
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:11,600
Speaker 2: is a wildly unpopular position in general for Democrats, but

664
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,000
Speaker 2: he called her out right there and this clip is

665
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:19,239
Speaker 2: now echoing everywhere and most people are saying, how in

666
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,600
Speaker 2: the world have Democrats lost their mind to such a degree?

667
00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:26,759
Speaker 2: John down in Augusta, Georgia, you used to live in Maine.

668
00:35:26,840 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 1: What do you think about what you heard?

669
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 7: Is this, Claire Buck? This is Clay Clay John from Augusta, Georgia,

670
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 7: never lived in Maine, but works there many times. You

671
00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 7: know the state backwards and forward. No, the people no,

672
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,360
Speaker 7: you backwards and forward. No coup backwards and forward, elon

673
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 7: backwards and forward. You guys are my heroes. Here's what

674
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,240
Speaker 7: Trump is doing. He is beating them.

675
00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 8: At their own game. He was living by mamotto, which

676
00:35:56,320 --> 00:36:03,560
Speaker 8: is we will either find a way or make one.

677
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:09,240
Speaker 8: Whose quote is that Hannibal? Who was Hannibal best best

678
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,040
Speaker 8: general lever live? Was he the best general level lift?

679
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:14,800
Speaker 8: He won every battle he was every inning? What battle

680
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,560
Speaker 8: was he noted as winning that nobody else could win?

681
00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,320
Speaker 8: Hiding his army over the mountains. You know the mountains

682
00:36:21,360 --> 00:36:21,959
Speaker 8: I'm talking about.

683
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, he got over the Alps. I appreciate the call.

684
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 2: We've only got twenty seconds left in the show, John

685
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 2: down in Augusta thanks to Jane up in Bangermain. Look,

686
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 2: Trump is winning because he's fighting battles that he can

687
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,720
Speaker 2: win that the vast majority of the American public agree

688
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 2: with him on. And Democrats are absolutely insane. Go grab

689
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 2: the podcast. I'll see y'all on Monday. Sleeve Travis and

690
