Speaker 1: kill debate comes to me, Trecero. Why that debate tired
Speaker 1: my butt out? So I was gonna have play a
Speaker 1: clip of one of the candidates talk about policy. But
Speaker 1: you know, I really think that Spanish thing might be
Speaker 1: the headline out of the debate for a lot of people.
Speaker 1: I think it was. It's sure as heck a headline.
Speaker 1: I mean, we've gone how many of us? How many
Speaker 1: of us? All of us? I'm talking to you folks
Speaker 1: when you first heard betto jump into Spanish, if you
Speaker 1: heard it, reacted just with with anger and revulsion. I
Speaker 1: got nothing against people who speak Spanish or or anything
Speaker 1: like that, of course, not who would, but that the
Speaker 1: pandering of it, ess of it by lingual societies is
Speaker 1: a bad idea. It's a bad idea. It's better to
Speaker 1: have one languifying language, right, because language in culture go
Speaker 1: together to such a great extent um. Yeah, so I
Speaker 1: would love to know the polling on that. What percentage
Speaker 1: of America's mostly Democrats I'm guessing watching the debate, but
Speaker 1: what percentage of America goes oh god when he speaks Spanish?
Speaker 1: And what percentage of people and I know people who
Speaker 1: would have react with glee? That is fantastic. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think you're wrong. Gary Diedrich is a nonpartisan political analyst. Uh.
Speaker 1: He is the founder of I three Inspire inform Involved.
Speaker 1: We'll tell you all about the website. It's very useful
Speaker 1: and Gary joins us. Now, Hello, Gary, how are you sir? Hey,
Speaker 1: good morning guys. Did to be with you again, especially
Speaker 1: after I don't know a year and a half out
Speaker 1: probably the most watched presidential debate so we're told, you know,
Speaker 1: of this magnitude this far out. Ever, really, you know,
Speaker 1: that's that's pretty interesting. Uh. We were talking interest. We're
Speaker 1: talking the other day about how, you know, you go
Speaker 1: back through history. Clinton got in in October. JFK got
Speaker 1: in in January of the year of the election. That's
Speaker 1: how different things are now. The word in July, with
Speaker 1: a debate and a lot of people watch, driven mostly
Speaker 1: by Trump. You think, well, I certainly think it's you know,
Speaker 1: the big dividing line is Trump. There's no question about it, guys.
Speaker 1: I mean that that is, you know, either you're four
Speaker 1: against you. You know, there's hardly any in between, and
Speaker 1: both sides very passionate. But there's actually been pulling down
Speaker 1: on this, guys in recent weeks national polls that said,
Speaker 1: you know, how interested are you in this upcoming debate?
Speaker 1: Is it really gonna make any difference to you? Or
Speaker 1: is this just a waste of time? Believe it or not?
Speaker 1: Over eighty percent of people said it would have an
Speaker 1: impact on their votes. Do you think those people got
Speaker 1: what they wanted? Well, you know, I honestly I don't
Speaker 1: know how you guys felt, but I always sort of
Speaker 1: pleasantly surprised by the amount of He's thought always just
Speaker 1: gonna be a flash card drill, you know, like you
Speaker 1: went through a third grade with your addition thing. Nobody
Speaker 1: really that you didn't know anybody. Anybody left, it's all over.
Speaker 1: But I think you got a pretty good flavor, you know,
Speaker 1: of the differences in these candidates, both their styles and
Speaker 1: personalities and even to some degree on some of their
Speaker 1: policy stuff. So, you know, I think it was better
Speaker 1: than most people expected tonight. I think it's gonna be
Speaker 1: even more interesting. Of course when we hear Biden and
Speaker 1: Sanders that's so forth on the same stage. But uh,
Speaker 1: last night, some of these folks that nobody knew anything
Speaker 1: of out clearly got some maritime that they wouldn't have otherwise.
Speaker 1: All right, what's so, why don't you mention a couple
Speaker 1: of those who do you think had a really good
Speaker 1: night in particular? Well, I kind of, but you guys
Speaker 1: talking about condersman Gabbard, and she certainly distinguished herself on
Speaker 1: the stage, certainly military credentials okay and serious okay, Yeah,
Speaker 1: well you know when it came to I think your
Speaker 1: military experience, guys, it's clearly something she wanted to highlight.
Speaker 1: She did highlight and did so quite effectively. I mean
Speaker 1: when it came to things like Afghanistan so much, she
Speaker 1: clearly stood out on the stage. You know, Elizabeth one
Speaker 1: I tried a little bit of you guys just said
Speaker 1: she's kind of this unscathed. That is sort of surprising.
Speaker 1: Remember de Blasio, mayor de Blogio went after Beadlo Rourke
Speaker 1: big time, but nobody took on Elizabeth Warren, which was
Speaker 1: kind of surprising. You know, there was a moment where
Speaker 1: was it um Amy Klobuchar or one of the moderate Democrats,
Speaker 1: asked about some of Elizabeth's schemes um or Pie in
Speaker 1: the Sky way left schemes and gave kind of a
Speaker 1: soft answer. So yeah, nobody, nobody was willing to really
Speaker 1: put a thumb in the eye of a progressive wing.
Speaker 1: And part of the challenge, Bryan, But go on, Gary,
Speaker 1: right right, it's part of the challenge that is here,
Speaker 1: as you guys sall it a one percenter if here,
Speaker 1: what are those candidates kind of hanging on right now
Speaker 1: trying to get some trashing. You don't want to look like,
Speaker 1: you know, the the nemesis of the clear front runner
Speaker 1: of the stage so it's a delicate balancing act, and
Speaker 1: I think we're going to see more of that, as
Speaker 1: people call it comparison politics, the attacks that some would
Speaker 1: call it, uh further down the road. This was the
Speaker 1: classic introduction opportunity last night for many of these people,
Speaker 1: and some did it well, some did it better than others. Well,
Speaker 1: you know, in terms of them being introduced to me.
Speaker 1: I know their faces and what they said, but I
Speaker 1: still don't know a lot of their names because the
Speaker 1: MSNBC didn't put placards on their podiums or put their name.
Speaker 1: Somebody would talk, and I think that was a decent point.
Speaker 1: Whoever you were brought an idiotical mission, unbelievable. The bald
Speaker 1: guy on the right, uh pointing out that the Medicare
Speaker 1: for All just does not work, I thought was interesting
Speaker 1: on that stage. And then the guy from Ohio, um
Speaker 1: he he pointed out that people look at us as
Speaker 1: a party of the coastal elites and that's not gonna
Speaker 1: work for us in a general election. I thought, I
Speaker 1: thought those were pretty two pretty bold things to say
Speaker 1: on that stage. Yeah, when you when you really go
Speaker 1: again and break down the numbers. In the end, if
Speaker 1: people were watching it on NBC would have caught this
Speaker 1: little thing if you're I was watching it online. So
Speaker 1: the thing about it is was he dropped some interesting
Speaker 1: numbers in during the commercial breaks, and one of them
Speaker 1: is really something we need to keep in mind, and
Speaker 1: that is three key stakes Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania one by
Speaker 1: Trump by a total of seventy five thousand votes total
Speaker 1: between the three states. And that's why I say, guys,
Speaker 1: those voices like clob Chairs and Congressman Ryans, those from
Speaker 1: those so called rust belt states were so important for
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party to hear last night because those states,
Speaker 1: we know, are the ones that chipped the balance and
Speaker 1: savor the president. You know, I despise discussing identity politics.
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm giving it respect it doesn't deserve
Speaker 1: because it's a dangerous, dangerous trend. But I will say that,
Speaker 1: you know, if if they can check some of the
Speaker 1: boxes the Democrats that they like to check ethnicity, uh, sex, whatever,
Speaker 1: and have kam Law or Elizabeth or somebody on top
Speaker 1: of the ticket. Tim Ryan from Ohio would be a
Speaker 1: hell of a Veep choice because he'd probably carry Ohio
Speaker 1: because he's a pretty moderate guy. But you know two
Speaker 1: things about Tim Ryan, um and and ideology. Number One,
Speaker 1: Tim Ryan is a coast to late It's the coast
Speaker 1: of Lake Erie, granted, but Ohio is on the coast. Uh. Secondly,
Speaker 1: we're talking a little bit a bit about Trump in
Speaker 1: and how it's all about Trump and he's the energizing force.
Speaker 1: Put I need to point out there are many many Republicans,
Speaker 1: conservatives who who are not thrilled with Donald j and
Speaker 1: his manner and his verbage and his you know, occasional
Speaker 1: uh sloppiness with the truths and the rest of it,
Speaker 1: and maybe making gambles diplomatically that might not work out,
Speaker 1: but this country is so wildly ideologically divided. Trump seems
Speaker 1: like a way better choice than like Elizabeth Warren. You're
Speaker 1: not going to deliver the country to Elizabeth Warren. We
Speaker 1: will be France within six months. And that to me
Speaker 1: is the real headline. Well, I think he reads a
Speaker 1: really important point, Joe, And that is all the hypothetical
Speaker 1: maxups right now between any of these candidates in the
Speaker 1: present or just that hypothesis. And when you when the
Speaker 1: look at finally arrived at their candidate last time, we
Speaker 1: all know who that was. When Hillary Clinton finally was
Speaker 1: the decided opponents. That's when people start, when those dividing
Speaker 1: lines come into full force. I mean to have to
Speaker 1: have sort of a you just sort of started your
Speaker 1: coming sort of this amalgamation candidate. Well, if he had
Speaker 1: little this person and effort, that's one thing. When you
Speaker 1: start breaking down the A or B, that's when the
Speaker 1: dividing lines happen, and that's when the things well, for
Speaker 1: Trump's only how could he possibly win? Well, that's exactly
Speaker 1: where he was anyone last time. Gary Dietrich is a
Speaker 1: nonpartisan political analyst with I three inspiring form. Involved Spanish
Speaker 1: in our national debates has been growing over time. George W.
Speaker 1: Bush didn't Romney did it. It's not only a Democrats,
Speaker 1: but that was by far the most Spanish we've ever
Speaker 1: had in a debate. I understand the pandering aspect that
Speaker 1: you're trying to signal to Hispanics, Hey, I'm down with
Speaker 1: your causes. But for people who don't speak Spanish, I
Speaker 1: gotta believe that turns off a lot of people. Do
Speaker 1: you have any idea? Well, I think it's uh. I
Speaker 1: tell your commentaryer Jack a little bit of is I
Speaker 1: was gearing to come on your that that. I think
Speaker 1: that too has become a dividing line, hasn't it. Some
Speaker 1: people think, wow, that's really great that they're trying to
Speaker 1: reach out to the growing with Kino community. Now I says,
Speaker 1: other people like, wait a minute, you know, we don't.
Speaker 1: It's not our ask language. You know, you know, the debate.
Speaker 1: So I think for somebody, honestly, last night, my sense
Speaker 1: about it was, well, Julian Costro, that works, right. I mean,
Speaker 1: that is a language that he's quite familiar. That is
Speaker 1: a language he grew up with. He you know, he's
Speaker 1: some Texas area. That language is spoken lot there. For
Speaker 1: a lot of the other candidates. Itself stilted. It didn't
Speaker 1: look authentic, and I think in a debate format in particular,
Speaker 1: it doesn't work as well. When you can drop it
Speaker 1: into it your stump speech in front of a large audience,
Speaker 1: it's easier to do. I think in that kind of
Speaker 1: a format it looked awkward to many of those pople
Speaker 1: And I think at some point, and we might have
Speaker 1: been at that point last night, I mean, if you
Speaker 1: had much more Okay, so the question was in Spanish
Speaker 1: and half your answer was in Spanish. I honestly would
Speaker 1: like to know what the question was and what your
Speaker 1: response was. I have no idea. I mean, it just
Speaker 1: functionally becomes a problem with putting. It's aggressively off putting.
Speaker 1: But well, one thing to keep in mind to guys
Speaker 1: is that Telemundo was part of the debate structure. I mean,
Speaker 1: many people may not know that it was NBC and
Speaker 1: all their affiliate networks, and Telemunda was part of that,
Speaker 1: and so one of the moderators was from Telemundo, and
Speaker 1: so I think that was an attempt to draw, even
Speaker 1: from a network perspective, to draw in that audience. Hey,
Speaker 1: by the way, we can't we can't leave without saying.
Speaker 1: Every person, like myself, we've ever done television has their
Speaker 1: worst absolute nightmare that your mic is going to be
Speaker 1: left on when you leave that shot. Oh yeah, we
Speaker 1: need to play that. We've got the whole thing. It
Speaker 1: was a huge, the biggest technical problems I've ever seen
Speaker 1: in a network level. I've seen this guy's in local
Speaker 1: news fairly frequently, but at a network level on that stage,
Speaker 1: do not have the monkey flip and the switch in
Speaker 1: the booth, you know what I mean? Was what chump
Speaker 1: Top had to ask what five times could you turn
Speaker 1: off the mics of the former? Could you turn the
Speaker 1: mics off? I'll give you a moment, are still on?
Speaker 1: Could you turn off the that was going on there? Jack,
Speaker 1: That's exactly what I'm thinking of myself. Has everybody in
Speaker 1: this nationally televised debate boots just gone out for a coke?
Speaker 1: You know what is going on? He called for it,
Speaker 1: He called for it again. Then he finally has to
Speaker 1: go to break during a nationally televised debate so they
Speaker 1: can swiped the switch and it interrupted his question, probably
Speaker 1: maybe the touchiest question of the night, about the kids
Speaker 1: being gunned down in school and what do you do
Speaker 1: about that? And he had to repeat it like five
Speaker 1: times to it to the point that it just no
Speaker 1: longer had any meeting sounds of people urinating or hitting
Speaker 1: the buffet or whatever. That was. Uh so, Gary, Gary,
Speaker 1: speaking of broadcast nightmares, I want you to know that
Speaker 1: Michelangelo our our our board operator, our brain in there.
Speaker 1: He visibly recoiled when he used the term the monkey
Speaker 1: in the booth and uh and you ought to be glad.
Speaker 1: What's your ethnicity, Michael, your family ethnicity? You're a white obviously,
Speaker 1: but so you're from Hispanic heritage. If your people ever
Speaker 1: been compared on favorable lead to monkeys, because if they have,
Speaker 1: then Gary Dietrich's career is over. Oh goodness, you're in
Speaker 1: the clear. You're in the clear. Gary, No worries, but
Speaker 1: thank you a lot. Michael Angelo were fortunately with Michael
Speaker 1: Angel at a long time. Friends were Okay, here's the
Speaker 1: thing I was talking about, the peribial I mean, there's
Speaker 1: this joke that rolls around circles like NASA, you know,
Speaker 1: when something goes wrong, like hey, we can sit up
Speaker 1: monkeys can get him into space, have them slip the switch.
Speaker 1: They seem like they're gonna do a better job than
Speaker 1: the human. That is great, Gary. How can people learn
Speaker 1: more about I three your organization? Yeah, we as many
Speaker 1: people will know us in the past as Citizen Voice.
Speaker 1: We rebranded here in twenty nineteen, which we're excited to
Speaker 1: do I three inspire and form vault. You can just
Speaker 1: google act. We're gonna be doing all the same stuff
Speaker 1: we've done in the past, protecting the vulnerable with safe
Speaker 1: without during disasters. We'll do certainly our election stuff coming
Speaker 1: up next year. We're looking forward to a great year
Speaker 1: or two ahead game. I'm not even gonna give you
Speaker 1: tense seconds. But the Supreme Court says federal courts have
Speaker 1: no role policing jerry mandering. Happy about that or not
Speaker 1: happy about that or not well gerry manderings, which continues
Speaker 1: to be a huge political problem. Watch for that next
Speaker 1: year to be a major issue in the Senate and
Speaker 1: congressional campaign. Wow. Yeah, the states draw their own districts,
Speaker 1: so it's still a state issue, according to the soups.
Speaker 1: That is big news. Gary Dietricht, Thanks a million, Gary.
Speaker 1: We'll talk to you, bro. We gotta take a break.
