1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: Second hour, Clay and Buck kicks off right now. The 2 00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:08,879 Speaker 1: Kamala campaign. Perhaps the should call it the Kamala charade. 3 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: The whole thing is a joke, a pretense, a falsehood, 4 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,239 Speaker 1: a lie, and the media knows that they are in 5 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: on it. In a little bit, we'll play for the latest, 6 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: even CNN, I think, probably because they are hoping to 7 00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: present themselves as a news organization in this in some 8 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 1: ways really tough to be a news organization that doesn't 9 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:35,560 Speaker 1: want to speak to a presidential candidate in a press 10 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: conference or even have a sit down. We'll put Clay, 11 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: what is the point of a news organization if it 12 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: cannot and will not sit down with the nominee of 13 00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,479 Speaker 1: the party that they support, by the way, for president? Like, 14 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: what are you doing over at CNN? We'll get into that. 15 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 1: The whole thing strikes me as absurd, but we live 16 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: in an absurd political environment. Now. The other thing, though, 17 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: is I also kind of understand the impulse. On the 18 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 1: one hand, right, we hold them to account and say 19 00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 1: this is absurd Kamala's hiding from the public, But then 20 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: we also say I kind of understand why they're hiding her. 21 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: So it's a catch twenty two. It's a difficult place 22 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 1: to be in for this campaign, and I think it's 23 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,200 Speaker 1: likely to start to unravel more and more. I meant 24 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:28,840 Speaker 1: to play this for you before I called out the 25 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: wrong clip. Here is the one that I had in mind. 26 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:37,199 Speaker 1: Though Kamala was in Pennsylvania over the weekend yesterday, Clay 27 00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: has said that is the key state, and it certainly is. 28 00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: And here is what Kamala Harris when she's just talking 29 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: about something, this is how she comes across play thirteen. 30 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 2: Our election is about understanding the importance of this beautiful 31 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: country of ours in terms of what we stand for 32 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 2: around the globe as a DeMont as a democracy. We 33 00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 2: know there's a duality to the nature of democracy. On 34 00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 2: the one hand, incredible strength when it is intact what 35 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:20,920 Speaker 2: it does for its people to protect and defend their rights, 36 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 2: their liberty and their freedom. Incredibly strong and incredibly fragile. 37 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: As a democracy. I mean, it's tough. I'm just gonna 38 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 1: say it. Some of these things matter. 39 00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 3: You know. 40 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: One of the challenges Rfka Junior had Clay it's just 41 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: his voice, and I know it's a medical condition, but 42 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 1: it's a challenge in politics. It's the truth if you 43 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: had a terrible stutter, it would be a challenge in 44 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: politics as well. It's no one's fault. It's the reality 45 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:55,079 Speaker 1: Kamala Harris's voice for vocal register and also the kind 46 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 1: of pandering way that she tries to connect. It does 47 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: not come across well. It does not appeal to people. Basically, 48 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: she does not even have the political skills of a 49 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsome, a Gretchen Whitmer, certainly of an Obama or 50 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: a Biden. She does not present well in moments where 51 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 1: she's supposed to talk to people and show her best self. 52 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 4: She simultaneously. I think the two ways to think about 53 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 4: her are one, she always is talking like someone who 54 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 4: hasn't read the book that they're supposed to be talking about. 55 00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 4: She hasn't done her homework. Second part of this is 56 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,480 Speaker 4: she also has a drunk wine mom effect. 57 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 5: I like drunk wine moms. 58 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 4: There can be a lot of fun to hang out 59 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 4: with at a dinner party or at a cocktail event. 60 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 4: I don't want a drunk wine mom to be in 61 00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 4: charge of the presidency of the United States. And I 62 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 4: think a lot of you understand that as you listen 63 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 4: to her, think to yourself when Kamala talks, does it 64 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 4: seem like she's on her third glass of wine every 65 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 4: time she talks a lot of it starts to make sense. 66 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 4: Then the other thing I'll say, Buck is I was 67 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,839 Speaker 4: looking at the Washington Post poll numbers that came out 68 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 4: that they released. I think over the weekend this race, 69 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 4: men are not voting for Kamala Harris. Democrats haven't won 70 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 4: men overall since nineteen sixty four. Kamala Harris is not 71 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 4: breaking that. That's a crazy stat Think about that men 72 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 4: have not voted for the Democrat candidate since Lyndon Johnson 73 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 4: in nineteen sixty four. That's how long it's been since 74 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:43,560 Speaker 4: men have voted Democrat. Kamala is not breaking that sixty 75 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 4: year trend this year. In fact, I think men are 76 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 4: double digits going for Trump, White, Black, Asian, Hispanic men overall. 77 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 4: This election really, to me, is going to come down 78 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 4: to a gender battle. In many ways, they're given free 79 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 4: vasectomies to with low testosterone. Who are Democrat delegates? That 80 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,599 Speaker 4: is the Democrat platform. Men are not welcome, They're not 81 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 4: mentioned anywhere in the platform. They don't fit the identity 82 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:15,480 Speaker 4: politics worldview. So Kamala is not getting mail voters. What 83 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 4: can Trump do to get women? That is the question 84 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 4: to me, that is of the most essential aspect of 85 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 4: this campaign. He picked Jade Vance. I would suggest people 86 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 4: are gonna get fired up. Buck get ready. You're gonna 87 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 4: get blamed for this suggestion. I would suggest, go ahead 88 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 4: and announce that you're going to have Tulsi Gabbard and 89 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 4: or Nicky Haley in your cabinet and get them out 90 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 4: on the campaign trail as direct surrogates for Trump. Who 91 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 4: is the highest caliber woman that Trump has said is 92 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: going to be a part of his administration. Yet nobody, 93 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 4: to my knowledge, get Tulsi Gabbard, get Nicky Haley or 94 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 4: someone else. To me, those are the two most and 95 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 4: best surrogates I know. Tulsi Gabbert is now helping to 96 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 4: play the role of Kamala maybe in prepping somewhat for 97 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 4: the debate. I think having a woman who is a 98 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 4: part of the Trump team out on the road selling 99 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 4: Trump would actually be very helpful when it comes to 100 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 4: trying to limit the amount that Kamala Harris is going 101 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 4: to win women. 102 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 1: With the women vote. You're trying to limit the damage 103 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: for Trump. Really, Unfortunately, I wish that were not the case, 104 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,080 Speaker 1: but that is the case, and I wonder how much 105 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 1: the needle could even move at this point on women 106 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: voters who It's interesting when we think of undecided voters 107 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: and when I see them on TV represented on these 108 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 1: different shows, it seems to me overwhelmingly that they are men, 109 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: or that they are by majority at least they are 110 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: men female voters. I would think, I don't know what 111 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: is the archetype of the undecided female swing state voter 112 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,800 Speaker 1: right now. I'd be curious, because I mean, are they 113 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: just aligning with their economic incentives? That's basically what the 114 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: difference is for the white working class mails I mean, 115 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: just just to be clear, I think for them, it's 116 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: who's going to be better for me to pay my mortgage, 117 00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: pay my bills, and you know, be left alone at 118 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: some degree. But really that's the primary It's economics, and 119 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: the big immigration or illegal immigration component is directly tied 120 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: into economics. They recognize this is competition for jobs, this 121 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: is state resources going to them, focus of the political 122 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 1: parties going to illegals and not to Americans. So I 123 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: feel like I have a sense as to who the 124 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: undecided male voter in the swing states and when really 125 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,480 Speaker 1: it's the Midwestern, it's the Big Three. Now it's Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin. 126 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 1: I don't even know that anyone's going to spend that 127 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: much time thinking about or analyzing the others at this stage. 128 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: We'll see. But what is the you know what I'm saying, like, 129 00:07:57,080 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: in your mind, who is the female voter in Maybe 130 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: we have some listening. Please call if you're an undecided 131 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 1: voter in one of those states. But what are they 132 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: waiting to hear? 133 00:08:06,920 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 5: Do you know? 134 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: That's kind of what is left for them? Is it 135 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: just an economic calculation, the same way it is for 136 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: the guys? Okay? In that case, I feel like the 137 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:16,640 Speaker 1: messaging doesn't have to be along gender line. Do you 138 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 1: see what I mean? The messaging that would work for 139 00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 1: the you know, the guy who's a tradesman or you know, 140 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: a pipefitter, steel worker, whatever it may be. In Pennsylvania, Michigan, 141 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 1: you know a teamster, That same economic message I think 142 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: would translate for a Remember, it's really about married women 143 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: versus unmarried women in the electorate as well. Married women 144 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 1: Trump does okay, Trump's okay with with with married women. 145 00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 1: It's not great, but it's It's okay, it's unmarried women 146 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: where Trump just gets annihilated. Yes, and I don't know 147 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 1: that he has really I mean your your strategy of 148 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 1: trying to put a woman out there to speak to 149 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 1: them makes sense. I just don't know if Trump can 150 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,840 Speaker 1: move that. I think the best we can hope for 151 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: there's low turnout among that demographic. I don't know if 152 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 1: Trump can win over I don't think he can win 153 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 1: over unmarried women from where they are right now in 154 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 1: any meaningful way. 155 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 4: Do you buy into me that Trump's gonna win men 156 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 4: by double digits? Like you agree with that thesis. So 157 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 4: if Trump's gonna win men by double digits, and I 158 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 4: think Kamala is likely to win women by double digits, 159 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 4: then the election might well be decided by, to your point, 160 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 4: limiting turnout, which is often a function of dampening down 161 00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 4: hate for Trump. What I hear a lot from women 162 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 4: is emotionally they don't connect with Donald Trump. 163 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 5: Again. 164 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 4: People always send me emails like I love Trump, I 165 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 4: emotionally connect with him. My wife is a good example 166 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,599 Speaker 4: of this. She was saying she watched the coverage of 167 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 4: the RNC and when they had hul Cogan, Dana White 168 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 4: and Kid Rock play back to back to back. They said, oh, 169 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,320 Speaker 4: this is not appealing to any women, And my wife 170 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 4: was like, are you kidding me? I love hul Cogan, 171 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 4: Dana White, I love Kid Rock. I can't imagine. But 172 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 4: the three men in a row leading into Trump was 173 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 4: the argument not particularly appealing to a lot of women. 174 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,559 Speaker 4: My wife is an exception. She loved that. But what 175 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 4: I hear from women when I'm out is not anything 176 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 4: other than emotion. He emotionally offends them in some way, 177 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 4: and I think part of it is they have just 178 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 4: decided that he is Many women have decided that he 179 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 4: is the guy friend that they don't like. Every man 180 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 4: in America has a guy friend that your girlfriend or 181 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 4: your wife does not like. And if you're like, that's 182 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 4: not true, my wife loves you're probably the guy, all right. 183 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 4: Everybody has a guy friend that when the you go 184 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,080 Speaker 4: out to get a beer with that guy, or you 185 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 4: go play golf with him, or you're going on a 186 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 4: trip going to a game, every. 187 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: Woman is like, I don't like that guy, and it's hard. 188 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 5: To get him to change their mind. 189 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 4: I do think what happens sometimes that guy gets married, 190 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 4: that guy has a new girlfriend. 191 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 5: That's how you change the perception. 192 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 4: If Tulci Gabbard, who I think is an incredible advocate, 193 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 4: we've had her a lot on this show, Buck you 194 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,719 Speaker 4: like her as well. If Trump said she's gonna be 195 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 4: in the cabinet and he put her on the trail 196 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,160 Speaker 4: and he let her go after Kamala, I think that 197 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 4: could be really appealing to some women. Not a lot, 198 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 4: but some women would say, wait a minute, maybe I 199 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,839 Speaker 4: haven't been considering things as rationally as I should have been. 200 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:26,960 Speaker 4: I like Tulci Gabbert. She appeals to me. Same thing 201 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 4: with Dicky Haley. I think if you put both those 202 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 4: women in your cabinet, I think that there would be 203 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 4: a chance that you could peel away some of the 204 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 4: women out there. Look, this is what Kamala tried to 205 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 4: do with walls. You and I think he's a loser 206 00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 4: and an incompetent, not very likable dude. But they're trying 207 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 4: to say, look, we have a midwestern normal guy. 208 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 5: He has a gun, he. 209 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 4: Wears carhart, he coached football. They're trying to appeal to 210 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 4: men by picking walls. There isn't a female equivalent of walls. 211 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,320 Speaker 4: Even if you roll your eyes and think it's yes 212 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 4: that Trump has trotted out. 213 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: Yet I still think that vps don't make a difference really, 214 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 1: and in this case, it's the difference was the lost 215 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: opportunity of putting Shapiro on the Kamala ticket. And I 216 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: think we all know why. I hope you have to 217 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,439 Speaker 1: pay a price for that. Yeah, I think that that's 218 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,400 Speaker 1: that's a really bad move. And I do believe that 219 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:24,560 Speaker 1: that was Kamala's move and that it was personal and 220 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,079 Speaker 1: an ego based for her, which would be quite fitting 221 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 1: if that's why she ends up losing this election. But 222 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: I think that you know, Trump saying he's gonna have 223 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: women on his ticket, I don't know. If you're a 224 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: woman and you're going to vote for Trump, you're already 225 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: voting for Trump. That's as far as I don't think 226 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,960 Speaker 1: any of them are changing their minds. 227 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 5: What do you lose by doing it? 228 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:45,319 Speaker 1: You don't lose anything. 229 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 4: It's fine, and you have a tiny little maybe it 230 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 4: just helps you with the pin trick. 231 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,240 Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. I mean trying to now that 232 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: people understand the demographics of the voter demographics in the 233 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:02,960 Speaker 1: key states, Trump outreached to the black community is not 234 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: a primary consideration right now, just because they know they're 235 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: not going to be able to move the needle very much. There. 236 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 5: Here's another question for you. We'll talk about it a 237 00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 5: little bit. 238 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 4: Don't you think Tulsi actually responds men respond to her 239 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 4: well too. I think she has a unique appeal where 240 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 4: women like her because they can see herself in them. 241 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 4: But also I think men really like Tulsi too, So 242 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 4: I think you kind of get a double header there. 243 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:27,839 Speaker 4: Just something to think about. 244 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: Sure. 245 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 4: And again, the other question is who is the most 246 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 4: prominent female surrogate for Trump right now? They tried walls? 247 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 4: Did they tried that in the Democrat side? Who's the 248 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 4: Republican equivalent? I think it's worth considering. Look, cell phone 249 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 4: service costing you more than one hundred bucks a month, 250 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 4: likely because you've got unlimited data as part of your plan. 251 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 5: Nice luxury. 252 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,679 Speaker 4: But chances are a lot of you don't need unlimited 253 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 4: data because you don't use anywhere near unlimited data. Most 254 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:00,360 Speaker 4: regular data plans give you five or ten gigs of 255 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 4: data to give you a sense of how far ten 256 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 4: gigs of data is. That's enough for you to be 257 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 4: on the internet ten hours a day, every day of 258 00:14:08,080 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 4: the month, or watch twenty hours of video streaming from 259 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:14,679 Speaker 4: your phone. Not many people do that on their cell phones. 260 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 4: Pure Talk would prefer you not to be on an 261 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 4: unlimited plan and have you be able to save money instead. 262 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 4: My son is on a pure Talk wireless plan. He's 263 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 4: sixteen years old. He has a cell phone. My second son, 264 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:30,880 Speaker 4: second oldest, is about to turn fourteen. We're gonna get 265 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 4: him a Pure Talk phone too. I trust them with 266 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 4: my own famili's communication. You can trust them to put 267 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 4: yourself in touch with your family and also save you 268 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 4: a bundle.

We're gonna 278 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 4: be joined by by the way, just a little bit 279 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:17,080 Speaker 4: of a preview later in the week. On Friday, Senator 280 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,239 Speaker 4: jd Vance will join us to break down Kamala Harris's 281 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 4: speech on Thursday night as she accepts the Democrat Convention 282 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 4: nomination officially, this is interesting, buck, don't I don't know 283 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 4: if you have seen this yet. I bet most of 284 00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 4: our audience has not. They released the official DNC platform, obviously, 285 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 4: the DNC is starting in Chicago today. There are nineteen 286 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:52,800 Speaker 4: references in the platform to President Biden's second term. 287 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: I know Vanini was overrun. 288 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 4: Think about how much of a coup this is that 289 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 4: they didn't even spend the time or were not even 290 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 4: able to spend the time to fix nineteen different references 291 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,320 Speaker 4: in their official party platform to President Biden's second term 292 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 4: and Kamala Harris. Now, I think this is a gift 293 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 4: a bit to Republicans because it ties them together even more, 294 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 4: But it also reinforces what I saw. Maureen Dowd New 295 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 4: York Times columnist headline in her Sunday. 296 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 5: Piece was that this was a coup. 297 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 4: This was a coup brought about by the Democrat Party, 298 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 4: the party that claims to love democracy and care so 299 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 4: much about the will of the voter. They saw that 300 00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 4: Biden was going to lose, potentially lose big, and they 301 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 4: came in and completely removed him from the political process. 302 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,040 Speaker 4: Now he's speaking tonight, but the fact that they still 303 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 4: have nineteen references proves how harried, how rapid, how much 304 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 4: of an without precedent decision this was to get rid 305 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:04,639 Speaker 4: of Joe Biden. So yes, buck Island came very close. 306 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 4: And I wish that Biden was the nominee because there's 307 00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 4: no way that he would be able to win, and 308 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 4: they're still hiding him. And there's a big article about 309 00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 4: Kamala Harris. We could probably talk about this two buck 310 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 4: Ron Klaine said that she was not a successful vice president. 311 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 4: That's Biden's primary chief of staff. Pretty debilitating things being 312 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:31,000 Speaker 4: said about Kamala Harris for a much of Team Biden. 313 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 4: He's going to try to put on a shiny face, 314 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 4: smiley face for it tonight, but man, what an unprecedented 315 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 4: situation we're really rolling into here, the likes of which 316 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 4: we've truly never seen. 317 00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: Well, this is also why Trump is going to win. 318 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 1: And Trump has to win because if they can have 319 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: it be Biden until the middle of summer and then 320 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 1: just pull a switcheroo through a coup and then beat Trump. 321 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: No way, no way, you know Carrie's family joined us 322 00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: at the Freedom Compound over the weekend. We've had a 323 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: lot of family coming and going. It has been great, 324 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: lots of memories being made, especially when you bring all 325 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: these generations together and we record a lot of it 326 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: on our iPhones today. But remember back in the day 327 00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: when you get the family together and used camquarders.

You know, one thing we 344 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: haven't talked about yet with regard to the d n C, 345 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: and it is it is noteworthy. First off, they'll there'll 346 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: be some protests, you know, there'll be some Antifa like 347 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: we're fighting fascism, and that's before they get their balls clipped, Clay, 348 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 1: we're fighting fascism. So I'm just saying there's gonna be 349 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: some of that, and there'll be some other people who 350 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: are all like free Palestine, and you know, okay, whatever, 351 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 1: what does they even mean? They don't you know, if 352 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: they don't you want to be free, you can't have 353 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 1: Hamas in charge. Hate to break it to you, but anyway, uh, 354 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 1: you know, just just just going down the list of 355 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: these things. But one unique component of the d n 356 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:48,600 Speaker 1: C this week is that the would be nominee and 357 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,440 Speaker 1: the now drowned residents of Buck Island are all very 358 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: bitter about this. The you know, we lost all of 359 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: our belongings. We you know, just swept away into the ocean, 360 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 1: clay Town high End. But it was so close, it 361 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: was so close. They even had biden as Clay pointed out, 362 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: he's still on the party platform and find they really 363 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 1: were doing this everyone Biden was the guy. He was 364 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 1: not stepping down. They were somehow able to And if 365 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: the polls had started to turn in his favor even 366 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:23,560 Speaker 1: a little bit in July, he would have. 367 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:23,920 Speaker 5: Been the guy. 368 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,680 Speaker 1: He absolutely would have been the guy. He wasn't going anywhere, 369 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 1: and shows you how ruthless he is and how dishonest 370 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 1: the Democrats are. What's interesting is that in this DNC, 371 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's got to give a speech and they're calling 372 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: it the passing of the Torch speech. It's gonna feel 373 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: a lot more like he's making some kind of a 374 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 1: hostage video here, Like, yeah, I said I'd be the 375 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: nominee and this was my life's work all coming to 376 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: this moment. But then you jerks told me that I 377 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,600 Speaker 1: couldn't win and yelled at me so much that I 378 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: just said, fine, I'll take my sippy cup and go 379 00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: somewhere else like this is. It's gonna be a little depressing, 380 00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: I think for some people to watch Biden have to 381 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:06,160 Speaker 1: bend the knee and crown Kamala. 382 00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 4: He's also already given this speech because he gave his 383 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 4: oval office. I'm leaving address now. The one question I 384 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 4: have generally speaking, there is not much news that comes 385 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 4: out of the Republican National Convention or the Democrat National 386 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 4: Convention general rule. What if tonight, buck Joe Biden said, 387 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:34,600 Speaker 4: and I've decided that not only should Kamala. 388 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 5: Be the next president of the United States. 389 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 4: But I am stepping down effective immediately, and she is 390 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 4: now the President of the United States. I don't think 391 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 4: it will happen, but I'm trying to think of what 392 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 4: blockbuster outcomes could occur other than riot looting and everything else. 393 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 1: This is when I'm reminded that history is so often 394 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:06,160 Speaker 1: determined not by heating strategies, but by competing egos, individual narcissism, 395 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:09,720 Speaker 1: and obsession with the self. And this is true. You 396 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 1: can see this all throughout history. You'd say, wait, why 397 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 1: didn't they do this? The obvious move was to, you know, 398 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,640 Speaker 1: to invade, or to not invade, or to reinforce these troops, 399 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,879 Speaker 1: or to step down from you know, the monarchy, whatever 400 00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:24,679 Speaker 1: it may be. So many times you think it didn't 401 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: make sense as strategy, but it made sense as ego. 402 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 1: As in, there was a person who just said no, 403 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 1: what you're talking about. I think would clearly be the 404 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:38,720 Speaker 1: best thing for the Democrat Party, which is to elevate 405 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: Kamalatuan incumbent, because then that creates a sense of continuity 406 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: of normalcy of she's already the president. Let's give her 407 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: a full shot here. I mean, you know, and there's 408 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:54,680 Speaker 1: just a certain it's you have the title, you're the president. However, 409 00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 1: you got it, you're the president. It won't happen in 410 00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: my mind, I mean I would. I would think the 411 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,400 Speaker 1: odds on this you'd get like a you know, very 412 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,639 Speaker 1: very low ten to one kind of situation. And I 413 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: think it's because Joe Biden is such a maniac that 414 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 1: he insists on finishing out his term. He will not 415 00:23:12,840 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 1: go down in history as I didn't finish a term 416 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,560 Speaker 1: because I had dementia. He will not do it, even 417 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,840 Speaker 1: though to your point, that would be the only way 418 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: they could make not just news, but perhaps make an 419 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,520 Speaker 1: impact with this week. I think the whole media is hoping, Clay, 420 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 1: that they just that this is a do no Harm DNC. Yeah, 421 00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 1: it just kind of happens, and that they can just 422 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: say what they want about Kamala and they move on. 423 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 4: I agree with you, and this was I think, actually, 424 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 4: when the full story comes out, I think this was 425 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:45,440 Speaker 4: part of the Joe Biden negotiation that he would get 426 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 4: to finish his term and as a result, they would 427 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:52,200 Speaker 4: stop putting pressure on him as soon as he stepped down. 428 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:53,639 Speaker 5: But if he were. 429 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 4: Actually trying to do what is in the best interest 430 00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 4: of his party, I don't think it's in the best 431 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:03,360 Speaker 4: interest the country. Although as much as I think Kamala 432 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,879 Speaker 4: Harris is a disaster, I do think she has cognitive 433 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 4: function that works all day and Joe Biden does not. 434 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 4: So I don't think Kamala would make good decisions, but 435 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 4: I think she's capable of making decisions all day long. 436 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 4: Where I really genuinely don't think Joe Biden is. I 437 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 4: think he's got mental and physical frailties that make his 438 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 4: cognition not work. The best thing they could actually do, 439 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,240 Speaker 4: certainly for the Democrats and arguably for the country, would 440 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:30,159 Speaker 4: be stepped down tonight. 441 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 1: Now. 442 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,160 Speaker 4: I don't think he'll do it, to your point, because 443 00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 4: I think his ego is too strong. I think his 444 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 4: family is too committed. They don't want video like Nixon 445 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 4: style where he throws up the peace sign and flies 446 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 4: off in a helicopter from the lawn. 447 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 1: They already threw everything they had at him to get 448 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 1: him to step Do you know what what threats are 449 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 1: they gonna make now they already clipped his wings. He 450 00:24:50,760 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 1: doesn't really care at this pay. 451 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 4: But if he truly wanted to be George Washington, which 452 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,959 Speaker 4: they're going to try to compare him to to now Cincinnatus, 453 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 4: for those of you out there that are really old school, yeah, 454 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 4: there you go. 455 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: The general who just wanted to be on the farm. 456 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 5: That's right, just wanted to go back and plow. 457 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 4: If they were actually going to make that argument, if 458 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 4: they got John Meacham and Michael Beschlos and all these 459 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 4: historians that talked about how Joe Biden was the modern 460 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 4: day FDR, this would actually be the way to elevate 461 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 4: himself to a different level. He's the president who voluntarily 462 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 4: gave up power for the betterment of the country. And 463 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 4: then if Kamala won, historically his residence would look better. 464 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 4: His ego is too much to do it, but I 465 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,159 Speaker 4: do think it's worth just kind of putting in the 466 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 4: back of your mind, what big news story that would 467 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 4: help Kamala could come out of the DNC. To me, 468 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 4: this is the one that's the one coupdi gras major 469 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,399 Speaker 4: genuflection at the altar of Kamala that makes her ascendancy 470 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,640 Speaker 4: more likely that could occur. I don't think it's likely 471 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 4: to your point. I'd put it at twenty to one, 472 00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:00,240 Speaker 4: but I do think in the back of your mind 473 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 4: it's worth contemplating. 474 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: Now. Now there's another problem though with this, And there 475 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,040 Speaker 1: I was watching Morning Joe was weak this Morning Clay. Honestly, 476 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: the propaganda not getting it done for me. I was 477 00:26:10,840 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 1: a little bit like I was a little wanted. 478 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 4: They were too they were too too honest, too too 479 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 4: good at what they were doing. 480 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:18,239 Speaker 1: It wasn't even too it was just it was. It 481 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: was nothing. It was just kind of you know, d 482 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,880 Speaker 1: N C rah rah DNC, like there was no I need. 483 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: I need like them to be truly mendacious. I need 484 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: Soviet style. That's usually what they give me. I turn 485 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:33,920 Speaker 1: on Morning Joe looking for that Soviet style propaganda where 486 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:35,520 Speaker 1: they tell me up is down and down is up, 487 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 1: And when they don't deliver, Mika, I get a little upset. Mika, Okay, 488 00:26:38,520 --> 00:26:42,159 Speaker 1: I get a little hissy about it. And the problem 489 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 1: I think they have with this narrative they're probably gonna 490 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: have on John Meacham, and they love to do on 491 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: that show, particularly on MSNBC, to bring on the presidential historian, 492 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,040 Speaker 1: as if that's I don't I don't the presidential story. 493 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: I don't care, like so you you spent a lot 494 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: of time in the archives about some guy who's president 495 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 1: than two hundred years ago, and now I'm supposed to 496 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: be like, oh, well, whatever you say about the you know, 497 00:27:03,840 --> 00:27:09,080 Speaker 1: carried interest tax loophole, like it's ridiculous. But Biden clung 498 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 1: to power with all the ferocity of his bony old fingers. Okay, 499 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,400 Speaker 1: and we all saw it over and over again. I'm 500 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,960 Speaker 1: the nominee. I'm the nominee. That's nonsense. That's nonsense. George Washington, 501 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: George Washington, you know, made the decision to step down. 502 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 1: It wasn't like he was telling everybody vote for me, 503 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,240 Speaker 1: I'm the only future of the country for months and 504 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 1: then he was like, psych, I'm stepping down. So I'm 505 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 1: just saying, yes, you're right. They will try this, But 506 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: on its face, this is a laughable narrative. Biden is 507 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:43,919 Speaker 1: kicked off that they shoved him aside and it was 508 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,959 Speaker 1: not a decision that he made any interest of anybody 509 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: other than the Biden families' finances going forward. 510 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 4: Also as somebody who majored in history, and there's a 511 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 4: different multiverse out there where I went and got a 512 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 4: PhD in history, and I'm sitting around in some university 513 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 4: still teaching history, like there is a world where that 514 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 4: could have happened. I love history, historians are not very 515 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 4: useful diagnosing real time issues and how they're going to 516 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:15,880 Speaker 4: play in the historical context. And any of you out 517 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 4: there that love reading history, like Buck and I both, 518 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 4: do you recognize that people still argue sometimes for hundreds 519 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 4: even thousands of years over whether a general made a 520 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 4: right decision at a battle, over whether a leader made 521 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 4: the right choice, and even things that we now consider 522 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:43,800 Speaker 4: to be completely decided are sometimes takes decades, fifty sixty 523 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 4: eighty years for that to be the case. Good good example, 524 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 4: most people now would say, yeah, FDR shouldn't have put 525 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 4: Japanese people in internment camps during World War Two. 526 00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: I think everyone says that. 527 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 4: I don't think anyone wants to people say yeah, I 528 00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 4: think there's very few. There's probably a few people out 529 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:01,160 Speaker 4: there there like that was the wrongest move FDR ever 530 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 4: made in real time. Buck, a historian certainly would have 531 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 4: come out and said, this is in no way an 532 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 4: irrational move by FDR because, for instance, again history nerd here, 533 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 4: Abraham Lincoln suspended the writ of habeas corpus during the 534 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 4: Civil War. He could just throw anybody that he wanted 535 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 4: in prison without needing to bring them in front of 536 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 4: the front of the judge. And in retrospect, because Lincoln 537 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 4: won the Civil War, almost no one talks about that. 538 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,960 Speaker 4: But I guarantee you that they had radio shows talking 539 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 4: about current events back in the day, they would have 540 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 4: brought on some Civil War historian and he would have said, well, 541 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 4: this is one hundred percent defensible by FDR, because look 542 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,600 Speaker 4: at what Lincoln did rid of habeas corpus, wartime changes 543 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:51,080 Speaker 4: the law, look my reality on it is. Oftentimes what 544 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 4: a historian would say is totally wrong when other historians 545 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 4: analyze the legacy of history and so these days could 546 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:02,720 Speaker 4: be proper for current events is crazy. The big problem 547 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 4: for some of these historians is, I mean, what was 548 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 4: Lincoln's policy on trans bathroom usage? I mean, there's just 549 00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 4: not enough of a you know, that's that's really what 550 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 4: the historians are today. They're like, I mean, would Abraham 551 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 4: Lincoln obviously have supported biological men competing in women's sports 552 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 4: in the Olympics. 553 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: We don't know what honesty would have said. 554 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 4: Would Abraham Lincoln even buck have been a man if 555 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 4: he were alive today, he might have decided to identify 556 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 4: as a woman in honesty. 557 00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:33,520 Speaker 1: Could have been the first woman president. I know, but 558 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:35,800 Speaker 1: that that this is the stuff that history. Most historians 559 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: today spend their time on nonsense like this. I'll just 560 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,760 Speaker 1: tell you they spend their time on what is a historiography? 561 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: And uh and uh. I'm trying to think of the 562 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: phrase that they used for. 563 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 4: When they historiography by itself is such a nerdy word. 564 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 4: I bet five percent of our audience knows that, but 565 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 4: anybody who studies history. I did my thesis on the 566 00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 4: burning of Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, Buck, which was the only time 567 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 4: the Confederacy South burned down a Union a northern city, 568 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 4: and I analyzed the this is you want to talk 569 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 4: about nerds. I analyzed the voting data from eighteen sixty 570 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,400 Speaker 4: in Chambersburg, Pennsylvania and compared it with eighteen sixty four 571 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 4: to try to determine whether if the South had adopted 572 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 4: more of a total war mindset, much like Sherman on 573 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 4: his March to the Sea, would that have potentially altered 574 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:32,239 Speaker 4: the outcome of the eighteen sixty four presidential election. That 575 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 4: was my thesis. 576 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 5: So I'm a nerd on history. 577 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:40,120 Speaker 1: That sounds pretty good. I actually would read it did nothing. 578 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 4: You know what I found? It would have changed the 579 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 4: outcome of the eighteen sixty four election. 580 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:44,520 Speaker 5: If Robert E. 581 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 4: Lee, during the invasion of Gettysburg had been willing to 582 00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 4: burn down northern cities and actually bring total war to 583 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,200 Speaker 4: the North, Lincoln would have lost in sixty four. 584 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:55,440 Speaker 5: He didn't do it. 585 00:31:56,200 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 4: Only city to ever be burned Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, by Will 586 00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 4: early on his raid in eighteen sixty four.

Halfway through the third hour, FYI, for 616 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,640 Speaker 4: those of you out there keeping track on what's to come, 617 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 4: We're also going to talk about John Fetterman, Pennsylvania senator, 618 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 4: making an interesting decision not to go to the DNC, 619 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 4: and also the fact that his chief communications director went 620 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 4: off on him during a profile interview to make it 621 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 4: clear that she disagreed with him on his stance on Israel. 622 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 4: I've never even seen this, but I do think it's 623 00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 4: a it's worthy of discussion. We'll talk about that in 624 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 4: the meantime. Sonia in Spring Texas. 625 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 5: What you got for us? 626 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 3: Yes, I think got. Trump has to do two things 627 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:14,240 Speaker 3: win over women. One of them is that he stops 628 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 3: putting people down and calling people stupids. I mean, he 629 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,759 Speaker 3: justifies it because he's gone through the ringer with the 630 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 3: court cases, which I agree, but he needs to act 631 00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 3: like a man like he's acted like a man before. 632 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,600 Speaker 3: The other thing is women are very protective of their daughters, 633 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 3: and he has to really hammer the fact that trans 634 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 3: men are not only hurting women but in girls. But 635 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 3: they're also taking the opportunity away. Those two boxers that 636 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,360 Speaker 3: won in the Olympics, they took the opportunity away from women. 637 00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 2: I agree with that we have Trump that has a 638 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 2: great meaning and it's cultural prohesis. 639 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,960 Speaker 4: Okay, there's Kamala telling us about hypothesis. By the way, 640 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,880 Speaker 4: we had Trump on a couple of weeks ago to 641 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,799 Speaker 4: talk specifically about that issue, because I do think it's 642 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 4: one that cuts through and is an eighty twenty or 643 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 4: ninety ten issue, and I think it particularly should connect 644 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 4: with many women out there that recognize how unfair that is. 645 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 4: Maria in Terrytown, New York, what's up, Maria. 646 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 7: Hi, Buck and Clay. I want the world to know 647 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:25,320 Speaker 7: that the reason all these people attend Trump's rallies is 648 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:29,640 Speaker 7: because they genuinely want to hear him and be in 649 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,760 Speaker 7: his present, and he understands us and he cares about 650 00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 7: America versus in the Hair's case. I mean, she's pushing 651 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 7: all these new headliners like Chappelle, Rowan and who draw 652 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,399 Speaker 7: in all these crowds. But they're like, Okay, you get 653 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:51,960 Speaker 7: the picture of the crowds, but they're there for other 654 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 7: reasons too. Yes, and you just here in her arguments 655 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 7: there's no sustenance and basically, at the end of the day, 656 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,440 Speaker 7: app how are you gonna pay for all your purposal? 657 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:03,960 Speaker 5: Yeah? 658 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,880 Speaker 1: I also it's worth though, I mean crowd size is 659 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: for the purpose. I mean, it's it's fun if you're 660 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: there and everything else.
