WEBVTT - I Don't Like Their Chances 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.200 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty. 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:17.280 Armstrong and Jattie and now Key Armstrong and Yetty. 0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:25.439 So before we go to our London bureau for a 0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:28.640 special guest. I'm a little bit embarrassed that I had 0:00:28.640 --> 0:00:31.160 to look this up. But I think for most of 0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:34.800 my life I would use Great Britain in England interchangeably, 0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:38.040 not knowing that they were different things. I think that 0:00:38.040 --> 0:00:43.159 happens with a lot of people. Great Britain means if 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:45.760 you say Great Britain, you mean England, Scotland and Wales. 0:00:46.320 --> 0:00:49.240 Those three places are Great Britain. But if you say UK, 0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:52.040 I didn't know this. If you say the United Kingdom, 0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:57.520 it's those places plus Northern Ireland. So Great Britain's three countries. 0:00:57.760 --> 0:01:01.720 United Kingdom is four countries. Okay, I didn't know that, 0:01:01.760 --> 0:01:04.440 and I probably won't remember it anyway. In England, Joe Getty, 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:07.199 the other half of the Armstrong Angetty show, probably in London. 0:01:07.200 --> 0:01:07.880 How are you this morning? 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:08.280 Joe? 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:12.039 I am in London and it is five o'clock in 0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:16.400 the evening here roughly, I am ridiculously jet lagged and 0:01:16.440 --> 0:01:20.160 sleep deprived, but otherwise in fine feddle. 0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:26.840 Still after you got there Friday, No Saturday morning, late 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:29.679 Saturday morning here, I for some reason, I just couldn't 0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:30.440 sleep last night. 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.360 Wired too much espresso or something. 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:36.880 But anyway, I celebrated total sleeplessness by walking for six 0:01:36.959 --> 0:01:40.199 hours straight with my sweet wife around London town today, 0:01:40.840 --> 0:01:42.240 seeing a museum and that sort of thing. 0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:44.840 So did you five or five o'clock in the afternoon. 0:01:44.880 --> 0:01:47.000 Are you supposed to do afternoon tea or some bs 0:01:47.240 --> 0:01:47.720 or something. 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:49.840 I could use a beer. 0:01:51.400 --> 0:01:53.840 Yeah, I think we may do high tea at some point, 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:56.160 depends on how hard my wife twists my arm. But 0:01:57.080 --> 0:02:00.400 mostly we've just we did the British Museum today. 0:02:00.520 --> 0:02:02.840 Yeah, that's that's awesome. That's one of the greatest museums 0:02:02.840 --> 0:02:03.320 in the world. 0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:07.680 Oh, it's it's breathtaking. It's I wasn't sure exactly what 0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:09.680 to expect. I hadn't done a lot of research, honestly, 0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:14.079 but the collection of antiquities from the ancient world, your 0:02:14.160 --> 0:02:18.440 Goths and Visigoths, your Romans, your Greeks, so your Persians 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.120 throwing a few Persians. 0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:21.320 There and Assyrians. 0:02:21.440 --> 0:02:25.880 Yeah, it's it's amazing though. I saw the oldest books 0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:30.160 that exists and the oldest library, and I was gazing 0:02:30.160 --> 0:02:31.360 at the Rosetta stone. 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:34.560 The actual thing just amazing. 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:36.200 So how is the weather. 0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:40.880 It's a ball me, it's absolutely beautiful, seventy five. 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:42.400 There are no bugs. 0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:44.880 It's not no, it's not. That's fahrenheit. What is it 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:46.919 in Celsius. 0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.320 Let's see the air conditioners set at twenty two? 0:02:49.440 --> 0:02:51.760 Whatever that means? Oh my god, that's warm work or cold? 0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:52.240 I don't know. 0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:56.680 Yeah, I don't know. It is comfortable, honey. 0:02:56.720 --> 0:02:58.919 The air conditioners said twenty two? What do we say 0:02:58.960 --> 0:03:00.760 to ood? 0:03:00.760 --> 0:03:00.959 Bye? 0:03:04.120 --> 0:03:07.240 So I don't want to get into serious stuff really, 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.160 but I just Katie mentioned there were huge anti immigration 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.640 protests over the weekend. Did you are you become aware 0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:12.840 of that? 0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:15.120 No? Not really. 0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:18.600 We saw cops going here and there, and we saw 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:20.440 some bobby sporting. 0:03:22.600 --> 0:03:24.840 They don't look like bobbies, they just look like cops. 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:27.120 You're talking fahrenheit and cops. 0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:30.400 I just don't know. You're not taking to England. No, 0:03:30.440 --> 0:03:34.440 not yet. But yeah, we saw a couple of smallest protests. 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:37.560 They didn't seem to be anti immigration protests. But here's 0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:41.080 something interesting for you. Every Londoner we have talked to 0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:47.280 for an extended period, be the Uber driver, tour guide, waiter, 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:52.160 et cetera, has mentioned the immigration situation really unprompted. 0:03:54.160 --> 0:03:56.320 I didn't ask them about it. 0:03:56.440 --> 0:04:00.440 In describing various things to see and do in London. Uh, 0:04:00.600 --> 0:04:02.720 it comes up a time. 0:04:02.840 --> 0:04:04.000 That's pretty interesting. 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:05.800 And I tell you what, it's not. 0:04:05.960 --> 0:04:09.600 These damn dan Tai immigrant jerks are No, it's like 0:04:10.760 --> 0:04:13.160 you probably don't want to go there and over here 0:04:13.200 --> 0:04:17.839 it's you hear a lot. Frankly, it's funny. I'm hesitating 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:20.400 to say this out loud, but what it was said 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:26.120 to me. You hear a lot of so many Arabs. Really, 0:04:26.160 --> 0:04:31.360 it's funny. They refer to them as Arabs mostly. But yeah, yeah, 0:04:30.880 --> 0:04:34.120 it's it's interesting. There is tension, no doubt. 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:39.120 Yeah, well that's good information. I didn't know. I suppose 0:04:40.080 --> 0:04:42.159 I had never thought about it. They have Uber in London. 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.320 Oh yeah, yeah, exactly the same using the same app 0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:46.920 you used here. 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:51.120 Oh yeah, okay, easy peasy, no lyft though, don't even try. 0:04:52.160 --> 0:04:54.720 I'll tell you another thing about London is it is 0:04:55.040 --> 0:04:59.160 more teeming with humanity. Then well, it's like Times Square 0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:02.360 in New York in this summertime, or like Union Square 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:05.640 in San Francisco before it got all poopy. I mean, 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:11.760 just millions and millions of human beings everywhere. Really, it's unbelievable. Yeah, 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:13.200 I mean you can still have a good time and 0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:16.640 see the sites and such, but it's it's it's a 0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:21.039 thriving metropolis, no doubt. And today's some sort of or 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.800 this weekend a Giant Bank holiday they call it. It's 0:05:23.839 --> 0:05:26.200 a three day end of summer holiday. So it's it's 0:05:26.240 --> 0:05:30.080 extra crazy. What have you been eating a lot of 0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:30.799 fish and chips? 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:31.320 No joke? 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:33.000 I know when I when I was in England, I 0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:35.080 have fishing chips every meal and they were all different, 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:35.920 which was interesting. 0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:39.560 Well, right, yeah, we we like to when like in Mexico, 0:05:39.560 --> 0:05:42.520 we'd always try the guacamole. And when I was in Vienna, 0:05:42.640 --> 0:05:44.240 not that I travel that much. It sounds like I'm 0:05:44.279 --> 0:05:47.040 some sort of world traveler, but I'm not. I would 0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:49.039 try the veen or schnitzel everywhere we went. 0:05:49.320 --> 0:05:51.080 What did you eat when you were in Hamburg? 0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:54.400 Uh? A hot dog? 0:05:56.640 --> 0:06:00.080 But yeah, it's I had a couple of pints and 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:03.599 as I mentioned last week, I guess we had dinner 0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:06.479 with our next door neighbors at home last night here 0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:07.000 in London. 0:06:08.800 --> 0:06:10.599 They happen to be here too, so that was that 0:06:10.680 --> 0:06:11.840 was delightful. It was funny. 0:06:12.800 --> 0:06:15.200 What what beer are you drinking that they have on 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:15.760 tap there? 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:19.880 You know, honestly I can't even It's not but light, 0:06:20.000 --> 0:06:20.240 is it? 0:06:20.920 --> 0:06:21.080 Oh? 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:21.599 Good lord? 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:24.240 No, No, I did have a peroni at lunch today. 0:06:24.279 --> 0:06:27.640 That's an Italian logger, I think.

This may be the first vacation in 0:10:15.120 --> 0:10:17.800 my life. I'm gonna lose weight.

If 0:10:20.240 --> 0:10:22.320 you go to big cities like that and you walk 0:10:22.360 --> 0:10:27.080 most places, you couldn't eat enough galleries to counterbalance how 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:32.559 much walking you're doing. When I you know, my trip 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:34.880 got kind of was weird. I've only been to England 0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:38.320 once and it was there over nine to eleven, so 0:10:38.360 --> 0:10:40.680 everything got really weird right when nine to eleven happened. 0:10:40.679 --> 0:10:42.520 Everything was locked down and all that sort of stuff. 0:10:42.559 --> 0:10:43.880 But one of the coolest things I ever got to 0:10:43.880 --> 0:10:46.040 see was just because of the timing of it all, 0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:47.760 is when they did the national anthem in front of 0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:52.720 Buckingham Palace. Oh wow, to try to stay in solidarity 0:10:52.720 --> 0:10:55.679 with the United States. That had to be moving, and 0:10:55.720 --> 0:11:01.000 they had a there's a giant is it Eisenhower DR statue? 0:11:01.040 --> 0:11:03.679 I don't remember which. I think there's both, but one 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.720 of them where everybody was and it was putting flowers 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:08.480 and everything like that, And it was interesting to me 0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:11.360 that I think it was FDR that they hold FDR 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:15.720 in such high regard there for helping win England, but 0:11:16.480 --> 0:11:18.640 you know, half the country doesn't in the United States 0:11:18.640 --> 0:11:21.280 doesn't like FDR. And the reverse with Winston Churchill. There 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:23.920 we so idolize Winston Churchill over here and over there. 0:11:23.960 --> 0:11:25.160 It's gone. Oh it's a mixed bag. 0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:28.400 Yeah, Yeah, indeed, it was interesting. 0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:31.880 The tour guide and I were chatting about contemporary politics 0:11:31.920 --> 0:11:34.439 a little bit. We hired a guide for the British Museum. 0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:36.600 We went a little nuts, but it was it was 0:11:36.600 --> 0:11:40.199 super interesting. This guy was a history professor, and oh 0:11:40.240 --> 0:11:42.319 my god, did he have a grasp of the ancient world. 0:11:42.360 --> 0:11:44.280 I mean, it was all a bit of a swirrel 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:47.600 by the end. But I'll tell you what a couple 0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:49.320 of takeaways. Number one, what I was going to say 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:52.640 is he was talking about how the country's growing broke 0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:56.120 and they've over promised pensions to all the civil service, 0:11:57.440 --> 0:11:59.520 just like you know, I talked about the pension bomb 0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:02.360 in Californy in the US. And the other thing he 0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:06.920 said that was interesting was after COVID, they can't get 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:11.400 anybody to work. There's a worker shortage. It's just like 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:12.479 in the States. 0:12:13.240 --> 0:12:15.720 Because people got used to not working and getting a check. 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:16.680 Yeah. 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.080 Yeah, people are on the dole and one on one 0:12:19.160 --> 0:12:24.439 program or another. And are we talking about Oh, one 0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.560 of the galories was closed. He said, yeah, they can't 0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:30.600 get workers. Can't get workers over here. He put into 0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:33.080 a restaurant. We can't get security people over here. Just 0:12:33.120 --> 0:12:34.079 nobody wants to work. 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.559 Wow. So we had that, but it didn't It wasn't 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.600 that bad for that long. I remember at the beginning 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:43.600 when things opened up, all kinds of restaurants, you know, 0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:46.320 they'd have half the thing knocked off because they didn't 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.079 have enough people to work there. But that's still going 0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:49.560 on there. 0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:50.920 Wow, right right. 0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:54.240 And then the other takeaway, the final takeaway from Big Tour, 0:12:54.440 --> 0:12:55.000 what time is it? 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:56.760 I'm talking your ear off. 0:12:57.400 --> 0:13:00.199 The other big takeaway was that as we went, it's 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:04.080 through the various wrestling matches over who would control what 0:13:04.240 --> 0:13:07.280 ground across Europe and Asia and North Africa and everything 0:13:07.480 --> 0:13:11.560 like that. The idea that the people just before you 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:14.960 who had the land, they're the rightful owners, right and 0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:17.960 you should feel guilty that now you and your people 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:21.319 are sitting on it is hilarious. 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:22.520 When you're in New Europe. Yes, definitely. 0:13:23.559 --> 0:13:26.040 Oh my god, every square inch of the earth has 0:13:26.040 --> 0:13:29.680 traded hands so many times through the millennia. It's just 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:32.040 just silly. But you know, as I'm always lecturing people, 0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:34.679 it's not about justice or anything like that. It's a 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.440 it's a method of it's a tool of takeover. It's 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:40.880 a way to cow you into saying sorry, sorry, it's yours. 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:42.640 Before we take a break, and I hope you can 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:46.199 call in again maybe tomorrow. But what's the conversion rate 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:47.120 on the money? 0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.560 I think it's about a buck thirty five to a pound. 0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:53.640 The dollars a little weaker than it's been in recent 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:55.240 years from what I understand. 0:13:55.320 --> 0:13:56.679 I remember back in the day though, when it was 0:13:56.720 --> 0:13:58.800 like two to one, so it was really expensive to 0:13:58.840 --> 0:13:59.559 go to Europe. 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.200 Yeah, the dollar was crazy strong there for a while. 0:14:02.240 --> 0:14:05.440 But no, it's not bad. Well it's not bad big 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:09.280 city prices. But you know, we went up to big 0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:11.040 steak dinner last night and it was about what a 0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:12.480 big steak dinner is going to cost you? 0:14:12.679 --> 0:14:15.000 Right? And did you yell bloody hell when you saw 0:14:15.000 --> 0:14:15.360 the check? 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:18.240 I wish I had. 0:14:18.920 --> 0:14:21.000 Okay, maybe we'll talk to you tomorrow. Joe Getty are 0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:27.400 from our London bureau. Thank you. We got more ways 0:14:27.400 --> 0:14:29.360 to one and all more of the ways to hear. 0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:36.440 Farm strong he Getty time flies and all too quickly 0:14:36.880 --> 0:14:39.840 it was in the country. There was no electricity, no 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:43.920 warming water, so everything had to be done hard. We 0:14:45.280 --> 0:14:48.800 The wedding was the seven o'clock and mister Turney was 0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:49.760 late sold. 0:14:49.760 --> 0:14:51.400 The wedding was the seven thirty. 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:55.080 The Guinness World Record for longest marriage is eighty eight years, 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:58.440 three hundred and forty nine days. That means currently Ray 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:01.760 and g McKay are just under fourteen years, shy nothing. 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:07.720 Probably will get divorced before then. No secret, just patience 0:15:08.040 --> 0:15:09.880 and keep on talk. 0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:16.200 Them couple celebrating their seventy fifth wedding anniversary, which obviously 0:15:16.280 --> 0:15:17.880 you got to be pretty old to be able to 0:15:17.880 --> 0:15:21.040 pull off, even if you were fifteen when you got married. 0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.120 I don't know how they were in this in this case. 0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:25.760 I think this is of course, mister Tarti was late, 0:15:26.080 --> 0:15:32.840 so the wedding started at seven thirty. That's funny. Uh. 0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:36.120 She still remembers that he was late for their wedding 0:15:36.200 --> 0:15:37.240 seventy five years ago. 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:38.920 She is still bringing that up. 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:45.440 Of course, mister Tarti here, I was precious. Yeah, that 0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:47.320 was cute and I like that. I don't know that 0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:51.120 I liked whoever the news correspondent was having to present. 0:15:51.160 --> 0:15:53.920 It is like a failure. Of course, the world record 0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:56.640 is eighty some years, so they're a long way from that. 0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:58.320 Oh, these guys got them beat. 0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:00.880 So there's no point in really talking about this since 0:16:00.920 --> 0:16:04.080 seventy five, since the world record is fourteen years longer 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:06.360 than what's you throw them that nugget. 0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:10.640 Four Gene is ninety six and ray is one hundred 0:16:10.680 --> 0:16:11.040 and two. 0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:14.600 I don't like their chances for breaking the all time record, 0:16:15.960 --> 0:16:17.400 he'd have to be one hundred and sixteen. 0:16:20.440 --> 0:16:20.800 Wow. 0:16:21.320 --> 0:16:23.440 You never know one of two and ninety eight to 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:25.960 four years apart. They may at work. Patient cyz a key. 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:28.160 I would say that is a true with all relationships 0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:30.800 of any kind. Yeah, patient size key and the h 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:33.520 and the recognizing that you always ain't so great to 0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:35.560 deal with yourself is also a very big help. 0:16:37.040 --> 0:16:38.520 I'm looking at another quote from then. 0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:41.760 I tell Jane that I tell people that Gene and 0:16:41.800 --> 0:16:43.840 I do a little bit of traveling these days. I 0:16:43.960 --> 0:16:45.920 drive her up the wall and she drives me up. 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:46.320 The other wall. 0:16:46.400 --> 0:16:48.920 Hey, no, oh, they're good. 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:51.480 They're darling. I love this story. 0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:54.960 They got a comedy routine. Good for them. That's fed 0:16:55.000 --> 0:17:02.160 the man. That is a long time Wow. Coming up, 0:17:02.160 --> 0:17:05.119 Donald Trump had a impromptu, as he always does, press 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:07.800 conference practically every day. Took a ton of questions on 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:09.439 a ton of issues, a ton of issues, and some 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:12.480 of them are pretty darn interesting his replies. So we'll 0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:14.240 get to that. Coming up. We still got a minute left. 0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:14.480 Cool. 0:17:15.240 --> 0:17:19.160 I was just reading over the protests from the weekend. 0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:22.960 They had protests just this weekend, really big protests in 0:17:23.040 --> 0:17:25.800 England where Joe is. It's around a hotel on the 0:17:25.800 --> 0:17:30.920 outskirts of London where immigrants somebody from the Middle East 0:17:31.320 --> 0:17:33.480 tried to kiss a fourteen year old girl. That's what 0:17:33.600 --> 0:17:37.040 is being alleged. He says he didn't. Other people say 0:17:37.080 --> 0:17:39.480 they saw it. That has been the issue in a 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:43.639 lot of the dust ups with immigration over there. You know, 0:17:43.640 --> 0:17:45.720 in the Middle East have a different view of the 0:17:45.760 --> 0:17:49.720 relationship between men and women, and no age barrier on 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:51.880 any of that, as you might be aware of. So 0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:54.760 that's what caused the spark, and they're hoping it doesn't 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:57.080 turn super violent like it did last year. But they're 0:17:57.200 --> 0:18:02.680 up fifty percent in terms of illegal channel crossings this 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:05.840 year from last and they set the record two years ago. 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:08.120 So I got a lot of people still coming in 0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:11.080 and things could turn even uglier, all right, what Trump 0:18:11.080 --> 0:18:12.520 had to say, and a whole bunch of different topics 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:14.400 coming up next to them, of it's pretty entertaining. 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:16.719 Armstrong and Getty. 0:18:18.359 --> 0:18:22.119 We want to go from here to other places. But 0:18:22.640 --> 0:18:26.160 I was telling some of the people that in a certain. 0:18:25.880 --> 0:18:29.320 Way, you really want to be asked to go. 0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:32.040 You know, I hate to barge in on a city 0:18:32.040 --> 0:18:35.280 and then be treated to horribly by corrupt politicians and 0:18:35.359 --> 0:18:36.600 bad politicians like a. 0:18:36.600 --> 0:18:39.280 Guy like Pritzkert. He had to spend more time in 0:18:39.320 --> 0:18:42.880 the gym. Actually, I had. 0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:45.679 To do a fat shot at the fat governor of 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:47.960 Illinois there at the end. Spend more time on the gym. 0:18:48.000 --> 0:18:51.720 By the way, I love it. That is funny. Donald 0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:54.440 Trump saying he'd like to be invited before he sends 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:58.960 the National Guard troops into Chicago. That's what Republican house 0:18:59.040 --> 0:19:01.679 Member Tom mclint set on our show a little bit earlier, 0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.720 that he'd be okay with it if they were asked, 0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:06.520 but he doesn't like the idea of the federal government 0:19:06.880 --> 0:19:11.199 just sending troops unasked. Ay you Trump talking about DC 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:16.840 and how crime is there since he decided to get involved. 0:19:17.440 --> 0:19:19.720 But in the last eleven days, we've had no murders, 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:23.120
