00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and buck

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:08,000
Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show,

3
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:12,240
Speaker 1: final hour of the week. We are live from Bedminster

4
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: Golf Course, Trump's golf Course out here in New Jersey.

5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,800
Speaker 1: If you are just starting off the show with us,

6
00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,120
Speaker 1: it's a really good time to tell you go check

7
00:00:21,120 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 1: out the podcast. You can go search out my name

8
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 1: Clay Travis, you can search out buck Sexton. President Trump

9
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: was with us for the entire first hour basically of

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 1: the show, touching on a tremendous variety of different subjects.

11
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 1: He obviously is a longtime fan of Rush and his audience,

12
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 1: so he has been more than generous to hang out

13
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: with us several different times. You'll recall we were down

14
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 1: at mar Lago with him in February and now at

15
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 1: the end of July up here for this live golf event.

16
00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: And what's intriguing about this as we break it down

17
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,880
Speaker 1: and start to think about everything surround he said so much.

18
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,120
Speaker 1: I'd encourage everybody to go listen to the whole podcast.

19
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 1: But there is a big story here brewing surrounding Nancy

20
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: Pelosi's potential trip to Taiwan, and in fact, if she goes,

21
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,120
Speaker 1: as you just heard me close out the hour, official

22
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 1: Chinese state media is saying they will consider it to

23
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 1: be an invasion and that they will try to keep

24
00:01:23,480 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: her plane from landing, and if necessary, they will shoot

25
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: down her plane. And we talked about this with President

26
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: Trump in the difficult situation that Nancy Pelosi is now

27
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: in and that the United States government is now in

28
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: as well. Here is how Trump analyzed it and the

29
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,960
Speaker 1: idea that this could could lead to a potential World

30
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: War three situation. Listen, everything that's going on the border.

31
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,280
Speaker 1: You were right, Crime, you were right, Ukraine, you were right.

32
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: May end up being right about Taiwan and what China

33
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: might do, and it could lead to World War three.

34
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: But it could all lead to World War three. Remember that.

35
00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: Just remember I said that too, And that's what's really

36
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 1: verry high stakes. Obviously, yes, And so as you break

37
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: all that down, buck, he said essentially that Nancy Pelosi

38
00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,960
Speaker 1: is in a really difficult spot because if you don't go,

39
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,840
Speaker 1: you look weak as if you are bending to China's will.

40
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: But if you do go, you potentially are putting your

41
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 1: thumb in China's eye and provoking a very dangerous situation.

42
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: So you were in international intelligence for a long time

43
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: with the CIA. What in the world do you do now,

44
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,240
Speaker 1: given the threats coming from China and the fact that

45
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: Pelosi evidently still is intending to go, How does this

46
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: play out? I think that the reality is that Nancy

47
00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 1: Pelosi knows that she's got to go at this point,

48
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: or else it'll be a huge political misstep for her.

49
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 1: But I would be nervous on that plane. I wouldn't

50
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,359
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want to be a part of that delegation

51
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 1: given how important this is to China to draw a

52
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: line here. And what I believe we're seeing one is

53
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: that the the Biden. You notice how President Trump really

54
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: really spent some time and laid into what happened in

55
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: Afghanistan yea, and the way that that all came apart

56
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 1: after twenty years, all the blood and toil and treasure

57
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: in that country the US spent and twenty years, and

58
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: then to have it all just fall apart in would

59
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: look just to be a debacle. In real time. Sent

60
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: a lot of messages to other regimes and to our

61
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 1: the oppositional countries, places like Russia, places like China, you

62
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,200
Speaker 1: can't help but note that the biggest war in Europe

63
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: since World War Two is occurring on President Biden's watch.

64
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: This could have happened for many years. It has happened

65
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 1: on Biden's watch. But what really Putin decided was that

66
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 1: he Ukraine mattered more to him than it mattered to

67
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:04,680
Speaker 1: us and to Europe, right, I mean, essentially, he was

68
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,840
Speaker 1: willing to have this massive invasion and what are we

69
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: really going to do about it? Now? We're giving munitions

70
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 1: and we're sending money, and we asked him. We showed

71
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 1: the president after By the way, the photos of Zelenski

72
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 1: with the he did not is crazy. He did not

73
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 1: think they did Vogue photos shoot in the middle of

74
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,360
Speaker 1: a war. He did not think the optics of that

75
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,679
Speaker 1: were wise. It did. But Zelenski's playing to his bass

76
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: in our country, and his bass is very wealthy Democrat

77
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 1: elites and people that work at you know, ABC News

78
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,840
Speaker 1: and places like that, they're they're very pro Zelenski. A

79
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 1: lot of other people are sitting here saying, okay, well,

80
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: what's really going on and why aren't we ever hearing

81
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:45,039
Speaker 1: about a negotiated an attempt that a negotiated settlement for

82
00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,040
Speaker 1: that country. Who does Taiwan matter more to the United

83
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: States or China. Eventually you get into a contest of

84
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: wills and what are you really willing to do about

85
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 1: the situation. It was just a few years ago when

86
00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: there was a lot of talk about what we'll do

87
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,960
Speaker 1: with regard to Hong Kong. Remember, and there are people

88
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: in Hong Kong, residents of Hong Kong. We're flying, We're

89
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 1: raising US flags and singing the Star Spangled banner. We're saying, well,

90
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: we stand with Hong Kong. That lasted a little bit

91
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: until we realized, what's that really going to mean? Folks,

92
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:18,120
Speaker 1: Are we going to send in eighty second Airborne to

93
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,240
Speaker 1: get the freedom of the people of Hong Kong. No,

94
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: we're gonna do what we always do, you know, pressure campaigns, publicly, diplomats, demarshes,

95
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 1: stuff like that. Guess what, China runs Hong Kong. Now,

96
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 1: China got what they wanted there because it mattered more

97
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,200
Speaker 1: to that Wyat coup, and they did it so smartly

98
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: during COVID when everybody was not paying attention by and large,

99
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 1: and now Hong Kong is essentially under China's thumb and

100
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: it's a disaster. If you believe, as we certainly do

101
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 1: in free speech and democracy and Taiwan, I just it

102
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: feels The New York Times had a big article buck

103
00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,040
Speaker 1: and they said, there's increasing fee that in the next

104
00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 1: eighteen months, China is going to invade Taiwan. And if

105
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 1: you were, let's take a step back and presume that

106
00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 1: you are in charge of China. Everybody out there listening.

107
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 1: You saw how enfeebled the United States was in our

108
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: departure from Afghanistan. Trump talked about that a great deal

109
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:21,400
Speaker 1: because really when Biden, I think for most people, even

110
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: those who were tending to be generous towards him, recognize

111
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: that he was not up to the job right Afghanistan.

112
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: Since then, everything has fallen apart even worse. You saw

113
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,520
Speaker 1: how bad we were with Afghanistan. You have seen that. Really,

114
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:38,279
Speaker 1: even though we talk big, we haven't really done anything

115
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 1: to Russia that has had major, incredible danger to Russia attached.

116
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,479
Speaker 1: Russia's winning that war. You won't hear people talk about that,

117
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 1: but Russia's taking territory and in more in control of

118
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 1: more territory than when they started. That's right, and there's

119
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,120
Speaker 1: going to be at some point I would think a

120
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:56,920
Speaker 1: negotiated settlement there. That's going to end with Russia having

121
00:06:56,960 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: grabbed way more land and maybe even hutting Ukraine effectively

122
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: off from being able to use shipping ports anymore. If that,

123
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,680
Speaker 1: if you're watching that in your China, why in the

124
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 1: world if you believe that Taiwan is your territory and

125
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: you want to take it. When is the United States

126
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 1: going to be weaker than under Joe Biden over the

127
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 1: next two years. You don't know who the next president

128
00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: is going to be. You don't know what Congress is

129
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: going to look like. Joe Biden is going to be

130
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: to the extent that he's been a bad president in

131
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,440
Speaker 1: the first eighteen months, he is going to be impotent

132
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,120
Speaker 1: on a level that we have never seen before. I

133
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: really believe this in the final two years of his administration.

134
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: Why would you not go now? You also have to

135
00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 1: ask what prices the US really willing to pay to

136
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: ensure the independence and freedom of a foreign country that

137
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:53,080
Speaker 1: is not the United States. We've seen in Ukraine, we

138
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,080
Speaker 1: take a middle path right in Ukraine has banned opposition

139
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 1: parties and there is a lot of corruption and Hunter

140
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 1: was getting paid eighty thousand Biberismo and it's a country

141
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: that had problems before the invasion. But obviously the Russian

142
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,280
Speaker 1: invasion is a war of aggression, and so we are

143
00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: all rooting for Ukraine. We're all with them in spirit,

144
00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:17,880
Speaker 1: but we've given them essentially the weapons and munitions to

145
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 1: keep it going, but we're not We could do a

146
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: whole lot more. Remember there was talk about a no

147
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: fly zone. There was talk about training Ukrainian pilots and

148
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 1: putting them in US planes and things. And why didn't

149
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: we do that because we thought the Russian escalation that

150
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 1: would come would be something we didn't want to handle.

151
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,120
Speaker 1: You think about what are we really willing to do

152
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:37,959
Speaker 1: with Taiwan? To your point about when is it a

153
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 1: better time for them to go? If if Joe Biden

154
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: sees you know, you ask me, what's it like the

155
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: see if if the DNI goes running into the Oval office,

156
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: you know, late one afternoon and says, sir, there are Chinese,

157
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 1: you know, transport ships on the way. It's only one

158
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 1: hundred miles from mainland China to Taiwan. They're on the

159
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 1: way right now. We think the invasion's coming. Do you

160
00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:02,319
Speaker 1: think Joe Biden gives the order? Do you think he says, mobilize,

161
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 1: let's go where we're going to go to the mat

162
00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:07,760
Speaker 1: for Taiwan? Do the American people want that? To your

163
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:13,120
Speaker 1: point about the corporate economic and the economic entanglements and

164
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: the reality of what a war with China would do

165
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: to the global economy, never mind what a war would

166
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 1: actually look like, which is almost unthinkable given the size

167
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 1: and power and ferocity of those two competing militaries, does

168
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 1: anyone really have an answer in strategic ambiguity, I think

169
00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 1: in part comes from no one's really thought this thing

170
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 1: all the way through or really knows they war game

171
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 1: at buck, I mean, and that's why I'm just if

172
00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:40,640
Speaker 1: I am China. I cannot think of a time when

173
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 1: there has been a weaker opportunity In terms of the

174
00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,200
Speaker 1: United States, I don't think we would do a thing

175
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:53,520
Speaker 1: if China invaded thai By the way they're stretching Ukraine

176
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: alone is stretching our ability to provide munitions. There are

177
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 1: concerns not only the Ukraine could run out of it

178
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: might see up talking about we're talking about rounds for

179
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: small arms, but also artillery shells and more precise munitions.

180
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,360
Speaker 1: We're not able to just continuously provide all of this,

181
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 1: even in Ukraine at the current rate. So what would

182
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 1: happen if you were to try to expand a theater

183
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:24,199
Speaker 1: of conflict? Are we are we wanting to do this?

184
00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 1: Are we capable of doing this? Those are two things

185
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,559
Speaker 1: that you would have to really think through. And I

186
00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 1: to your point about what China sees is there it

187
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: would there be a better time for it. I mean,

188
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 1: you would hope that they would look at the US

189
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,200
Speaker 1: response and say the chance is high enough that they

190
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 1: will decide to come to time. One's that we won't

191
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: do this under the Biden administration. Is that the case,

192
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: Let's hope. So I don't know, look at how cataclysmic

193
00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: for our economy supply chain issues originating much of them

194
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,720
Speaker 1: out of China have been. But can you imagine if

195
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: we actually tried to go to effectively economic war with China.

196
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,959
Speaker 1: I don't even know how United States commerce can be disentangled.

197
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,760
Speaker 1: And for everybody out there, just think about it. McDonald's

198
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 1: basically said, oh you know what, we don't need McDonald's

199
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 1: in Russia anymore, and they bullied every single brand to

200
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 1: pull out of Russia. As a result. We can't do

201
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: that if China invades Taiwan, even if we want to,

202
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 1: And do you feel that Joe Biden, commander in chief,

203
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: is going after what happened in Afghanistan and after what

204
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,079
Speaker 1: you've seen happen with Ukraine, is going to be able

205
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:41,200
Speaker 1: to finesse the line buck you talked about. The United

206
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: States will provide weapons up to a certain level. You

207
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: can have anti aircraft weapons, but you can't have jets.

208
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:53,079
Speaker 1: You can have certain materials, but we're going to draw

209
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,959
Speaker 1: the line and how we ship them in. We should

210
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:57,840
Speaker 1: be very clear why are we drawing those lines? Because

211
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 1: we think we go to war with Russia otherwise. So

212
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 1: now we look at what's the situation with Taiwan. How

213
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,199
Speaker 1: do you how do think we're just gonna you know,

214
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: we're gonna roll in there with everything we've got. I

215
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:10,079
Speaker 1: don't think so, folks, And I don't even if this

216
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 1: all starts because China's threatening to shut, shut, shoot down.

217
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi's playing if she tries to pay a visit,

218
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: which I believe would be the first visit by a

219
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House. If you're out there and you're saying,

220
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,880
Speaker 1: why is this significant? It would be the first visit

221
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: of a Speaker of the House since New Gingrich. I

222
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 1: think in ninety four. Look, she's got to go. I

223
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: mean that because going now, you know you can't if

224
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 1: you if you allow the perception to be that China

225
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,559
Speaker 1: can dictate us foreign policy. We got big problems. So

226
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: she's got to go. But it's gonna be It's gonna

227
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 1: be tense. Clay, there is no doubt that we are

228
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 1: in an incredibly fraught, perilous time. Whereas you just heard

229
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,400
Speaker 1: President Trump with us in the first hour, we just

230
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,120
Speaker 1: played the cut again, talked about the possibility of World

231
00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,559
Speaker 1: War three. We'll continue to break down. It's Friday. I

232
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 1: promise we will take some of your calls. Eight hundred

233
00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 1: two eight two two eight eight two. We are out

Speaker 1: out there who is making sure that your family's memories

239
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: are preserved forever, you need to think about Legacy Box.

Speaker 1: films onto computer files. Just nine dollars per tape right now,

242
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: that's an incredible deal when you think about the normal

243
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 1: price being twenty five dollars and more. Get the box

244
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,880

Speaker 1: show going strong out here in Bedminster, New Jersey. Got

257
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: some calls up. We wanted to speak to you all.

258
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 1: It is Friday, after all. David in Louisville, Kentucky. David,

259
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 1: what do you got for us? Well? Thankful guys, great

260
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:36,280
Speaker 1: show as always been. I just want to say I

261
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: work with a lot of people in China, and I've

262
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 1: had a good colleague who just was You never hear

263
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 1: a lot from them, but one who just got up

264
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,400
Speaker 1: and got back home, and he's telling me that the

265
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: economic situation o versus far or worse than anything we're

266
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: hearing here there. Their real estate has totally collapsed in

267
00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: the last few years. You know, the people are very

268
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: upset by all the COVID testing and lockdowns and quarantining

269
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 1: people and like that. The provincial governments are basically aankrupt

270
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: now because they're being forced to spend all the money

271
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 1: on this testing, and they can't make money leasing property,

272
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 1: which is where they make their most money. And he

273
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 1: has got you know, party meetings coming up pretty soon

274
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,400
Speaker 1: where he hopes to win a lifetime appointment, and he's

275
00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:15,000
Speaker 1: got problems right now, and there's he needs a distraction,

276
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 1: and there's no better distraction than Taiwan. Well, then yes,

277
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,640
Speaker 1: this is back down or worse. This is my concern.

278
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: This is what I was raising before. I mean China

279
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 1: right now officially, and remember the Chinese growth numbers. Everyone

280
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:31,520
Speaker 1: who is a China watchers. The policy community will tell you.

281
00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: Economic folks too, will tell Yekon folks that China's numbers

282
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 1: are always a little They're always inflated. You can't trust them.

283
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 1: The official growth number they want to hit for this

284
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 1: year is five percent, which would be the lowest in

285
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: thirty years. So if they're telling you they want to

286
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: hit a five percent GDP, and first of all, that

287
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,680
Speaker 1: was going to be their numbers are always juice to

288
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,800
Speaker 1: make it look better than it is. But they're having

289
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: the worst economy that had in thirty years in China

290
00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 1: right now. And to the point you are bringing up

291
00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 1: the lockdowns, I mean, let's all remember they shut down Shanghai,

292
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 1: which is really their most other than Hong Kong, their

293
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 1: most international city, the one that has the most international visitors,

294
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,400
Speaker 1: and it's the financial capital. They had drones flying outside

295
00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 1: people's windows saying give up your heart's desire for freedom,

296
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 1: stay inside, locking people into their homes. It's a city

297
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: of over ten million people. So Clay, I mean, it's

298
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: tough to run an economy well when you're shutting down

299
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: every time there are asymptomatic COVID cases, which is what

300
00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,120
Speaker 1: they've just done in Wuhan COVID zero is an abject failure.

301
00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 1: But Buck, what is the best way to deal with

302
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 1: failures inside your country? Find a common enemy outside of

303
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 1: that country. And so that's my concern about the situation

304
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,040
Speaker 1: that's playing out with Nancy Pelosi is we don't really know.

305
00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: And this is a quote, and I think it's very

306
00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:02,080
Speaker 1: accurate about war. When Adolf Hitler invaded he said, the

307
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: beginning of every war is like opening the door into

308
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,879
Speaker 1: a dark room. One never knows what is hidden in

309
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:12,359
Speaker 1: the darkness, what is hidden in the darkness of the

310
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 1: relationship right now between the United States and China. And

311
00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:19,159
Speaker 1: to your point, Buck, when you wargame these scenarios, when

312
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 1: you start to think about, Okay, Nancy Pelosi's trying to

313
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:25,920
Speaker 1: land in China and the Chinese are sorry in Taiwan,

314
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 1: and the Chinese question or conflict with her ability to land.

315
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,120
Speaker 1: Do you feel good about Joe Biden getting a telephone

316
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,879
Speaker 1: call and somebody says, hey, mister President, here are the

317
00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 1: two or three options that we have right now with

318
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi. We need you to make this decision right now.

319
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: Do you feel good about any decisions Joe Biden's making,

320
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 1: even if they aren't freighted with danger. I mean, I

321
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,160
Speaker 1: don't trust this guy's decision about what to eat for lunch.

322
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,480
Speaker 1: I don't think he can pull it off. Got the

323
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 1: doctor's having to tell us that he eate is full play.

324
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: It's like dealing with an infant. We're big fans of

325
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: a company making great dress shoes for men, Wolf and Shepherd.

340
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 1: Welcome back in Play Travis buck Sexton Show. We're closing

341
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 1: out final half hour of the week from Bedminster Golf Course.

342
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 1: We had President Trump out here for the first hour

343
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 1: of the show. When to thank Buck for holding down

344
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 1: the fort yesterday when I was out here playing poorly

345
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: eighteen holes of golf, and let's have some positive talk here, Buck,

346
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,920
Speaker 1: because we just went from talking about, Hey, Nancy, world

347
00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 1: War three might happen, everything could go to hell as

348
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:28,600
Speaker 1: she prepares to potentially visit Taiwan. I do want to

349
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: give credit. We've got a lot of people listening in La.

350
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: It appears that people are coming to their senses, even

351
00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,160
Speaker 1: in blue cities in blue states like Los Angeles in California.

352
00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,640
Speaker 1: Because we've been beating this drum for a while, LA's

353
00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 1: health authorities were going to implement a mask mandate. And

354
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,560
Speaker 1: what started to happen was, first of all, surrounding County

355
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,280
Speaker 1: said we're not doing this. This is stupid. And then

356
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,960
Speaker 1: even inside of LA County, for in It's Beverly Hills,

357
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 1: said well, we're not going to enforce a mask mandate.

358
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: And guess what happened, Buck. As a result, the La

359
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 1: County public health officials for the first time, I can

360
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: remember in a long time tuck their tails between their legs.

361
00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 1: Ran scared, invented some brand new metrics, and they didn't

362
00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 1: admit why they're not doing it though, right, that's well, yeah,

363
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,320
Speaker 1: but they're saying, our numbers aren't actually what they need

364
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 1: to be for the mask mandate. So this is a thing, Clay.

365
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: They will never give this up, you know, they'll never

366
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,440
Speaker 1: just say, you know what, enough people realize how dumb

367
00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:36,080
Speaker 1: this is, that we're going to stop trying to force

368
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,879
Speaker 1: the face taper on everybody. I do think it's a

369
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: small measure of potential good news that even in Los Angeles,

370
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 1: people seem to be coming around for what you and

371
00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:49,000
Speaker 1: I have been saying for two years, which is all

372
00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: of the data is quite clear. Mass do nothing to

373
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 1: stop the spread of COVID. It's all cosmetic theater, and

374
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 1: they finally won a battle in Los Angeles. You know, also,

375
00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 1: whatever is for meantime, whatever happened to double masking? Remember

376
00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,639
Speaker 1: when double masking was a thing, Because now you've noticed

377
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,639
Speaker 1: the fashion. The latest fashion trend for the fauci heites

378
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 1: is definitely an N ninety five that has the rubber

379
00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 1: strap that's so tight on your head because gotta be

380
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 1: well fitted that it's leaving kind of an indentation in

381
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: the back of the of the head area of the skull.

382
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,560
Speaker 1: But they've skipp passed the double I remember when if

383
00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:24,399
Speaker 1: you were a really cool kid and you wanted to

384
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: get that Fauci high five, you were double masks. I

385
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 1: remember that, and there were even some triple maskers. And

386
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,880
Speaker 1: I just want to know what's going on, folks, because

387
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 1: because for the mask wearers out there with their N

388
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 1: ninety fives, I'm like, I'm not seeing that second layer,

389
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 1: so I don't think they take the virus seriously. Joe Biden,

390
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,320
Speaker 1: for example, all of them. Remember in the winter time,

391
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: they were double masking. This past winner, they were double masking.

392
00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 1: Fauci was showing up everywhere N ninety five with a

393
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 1: cloth mask on. If you're gonna rock the N ninety five,

394
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,400
Speaker 1: I just gotta say, for all the libs out there

395
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,800
Speaker 1: who are suffering from an anxiety disorder, go all in

396
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:57,960
Speaker 1: on it. Were those two masks. You know. The place

397
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 1: to your point where mask seems to be the most

398
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: embraced is right now, Congress. If you watch any congressional hearing,

399
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: you don't even need to know who the people work for.

400
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:17,400
Speaker 1: Every Democrat uh subsidiary employee, like all the different subcommittees.

401
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,200
Speaker 1: You can just sit there and watch they all have

402
00:22:20,440 --> 00:22:24,040
Speaker 1: masks on. Now there really is some separation in the

403
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,000
Speaker 1: brain between the left and the right here or something.

404
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 1: Because we've talked about this many times. I hated masks

405
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 1: when Trump was president. I hated masks from the very beginning.

406
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: I didn't think they would work. Remember Trump just said

407
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 1: to us that Fauci told him masks don't do it.

408
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:44,639
Speaker 1: We've got the audio, yes, himself said that, right, and

409
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,480
Speaker 1: and people just wanted to forget that. And now it

410
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,159
Speaker 1: has become it really is the It is the maga

411
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 1: hat of the contemporary liberal. You wear a mask because

412
00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 1: you're establishing your political allegiance. And I just want to

413
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:01,720
Speaker 1: free their faces. Man. I'm a I'm a face humanitarian.

414
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 1: I want people to be breathing that fresh clear air

415
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: or whatever. If they're in a major city, this smog

416
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,159
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. The point is you want to be letting it,

417
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,360
Speaker 1: letting it go free. And there are still people walking

418
00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 1: around New York City. I am amazed how many folks

419
00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:18,560
Speaker 1: are still wearing now. It's a small percentage comparatively, maybe

420
00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,240
Speaker 1: it's five percent. Now on the streets, you'll see but

421
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: you will not walk down a street of midtown Manhattan

422
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,480
Speaker 1: without seeing people wearing masks. It will not. You will

423
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:28,439
Speaker 1: not see free faces everywhere. And I think if Fauci

424
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 1: was a decent human being, which I don't think he is,

425
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 1: he would come out and tell everybody, guys, it's enough enough.

426
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:35,680
Speaker 1: You know, they could do that right now. They could

427
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: finally free everybody from this. They could have done it

428
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,400
Speaker 1: for two years. Yeah, of course, but but why not now?

429
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: Why not just say they won't do it? Man? So La, Yeah,

430
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,120
Speaker 1: they back down off of this one when the caseload

431
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: goes up, as you know it will, the caseload goes up,

432
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: let's say November or December time frame after the election.

433
00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:55,959
Speaker 1: You think that they're going to just walk away from

434
00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: this stuff. I'm cautiously optimistic that we're getting to the

435
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 1: point where the political pressure might be significant enough from independence.

436
00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: We know, to your point, the mask has become Oh

437
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:07,960
Speaker 1: but I mean after the election, yeah, right, Well, I

438
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: think there's thirty percent of people that are going to

439
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 1: continue to wear masks because it sends a signal about

440
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 1: who they are. It's their personal branding in some way.

441
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,400
Speaker 1: How many times did you get yelled at for mask

442
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: related issues all in over the course of the pandemic,

443
00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: you know, I definitely, I think I think I was

444
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: at six or seven times people angrily, including airline attendance,

445
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 1: angrily confronted me. And I hope that they they have

446
00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:35,639
Speaker 1: shame in their own minds attached to that forever, because

447
00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: I could think of one in particular, because I was

448
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:41,720
Speaker 1: down in Key West, Florida, which is where you would

449
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,480
Speaker 1: think of being maybe the most chill place in America

450
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,160
Speaker 1: one of them. And we were in the airport there

451
00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:50,800
Speaker 1: and I was drinking a coffee, I think an iced

452
00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,720
Speaker 1: coffee an early morning flight, and the flight attendant flight

453
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 1: gate agent there came over and said, sir, you're leaving

454
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:03,440
Speaker 1: your mask down too low in between too long between SIPs. Yeah,

455
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: And I just was like, I mean, how long, you know,

456
00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 1: is it appropriate basically for me to sip? And my

457
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 1: wife just got me right in the right and the

458
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,640
Speaker 1: ribs with an elbow and she said, you're gonna get

459
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,879
Speaker 1: us banned off this airplane flight because you're arguing with

460
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,800
Speaker 1: the gate attendant over how long you can drink your coffee.

461
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 1: I said, yeah, it's ridiculous. She said, just shut up.

462
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: So I remember, and as many wives have liked to

463
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 1: say to their husbands over the years, just shut up

464
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: and stop being creating any issue here. Put your mask on.

465
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,119
Speaker 1: You've seen the lives of others, right, Yeah, yeah, we

466
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,159
Speaker 1: talked about this because is when you watch that, you

467
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:41,440
Speaker 1: think who would be the East German informants on their neighbors,

468
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,159
Speaker 1: their friends to the Stazi, the mask shamers, if you

469
00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:48,000
Speaker 1: went back in time fifty years, now, seventy years they

470
00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:49,720
Speaker 1: of course, I think they're on the right side of history,

471
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,840
Speaker 1: which is so crazy. They would be the ones informed

472
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 1: the Masks Stazi. We know that there are people throughout

473
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,840
Speaker 1: history who unfortunately think that doing the bidding of the

474
00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: authoritarians in our society pointless, absurd, freedom crushing bidding is

475
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:07,280
Speaker 1: something that they should be proud of. I'm already thinking, Buck,

476
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 1: I'm fortunate to have three kids, and hopefully I'll have

477
00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:15,160
Speaker 1: grandkids one day. I'm already thinking about how those conversations

478
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 1: about the COVID era are going to go with grandkids.

479
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,840
Speaker 1: You know, anybody out there who's fortunate enough to have

480
00:26:20,920 --> 00:26:25,479
Speaker 1: grandparents or great grandparents. Forty fifty years down the line

481
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 1: and your kid, your grandkids, or your great grandkids come

482
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: to you and say, hey, did you live through World

483
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: War Two? Did you live through the Vietnam War? Different

484
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: things in your life, the Kennedy assassination, which are big

485
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:42,080
Speaker 1: flashpoints that you can take that kid into that experience

486
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 1: of what it was like based on your own personal memory.

487
00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: I hope that forty and fifty years from now, kids

488
00:26:49,040 --> 00:26:53,080
Speaker 1: are going to look at these stories Buck and say, Dad, Grandma, grandpa,

489
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,320
Speaker 1: how did you ever end up in a situation where

490
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: they shut down every school because of a virus that

491
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 1: had almost no impact on kids. We'll be able to

492
00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:03,680
Speaker 1: look at our grandkids, Clay and say, when the Great

493
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 1: Mask Wars were happening, we were not shoveling. We were

494
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,399

Speaker 1: just gonna be yours truly buck in on this show

532
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: because Clay is going on a much deserved vacation. So

533
00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,000
Speaker 1: I promised Clay, did you ever see there's this movie

534
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: Project X about the biggest house party ever? I did

535
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,720
Speaker 1: see that movie. Yeah, you know, it was like a

536
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,880
Speaker 1: faux documentary about the biggest house party ever. Right, I

537
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: will not do that to the radio show. There will

538
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 1: not be anyone standing in the backyard with a flamethrower.

539
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 1: None of that's going to happen. You'll come back, the

540
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: show will be standing in one place. I promise my

541
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 1: kids are gonna be back in school by the time

542
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,240
Speaker 1: we come back. So I'm headed up to Michigan, to

543
00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: the upper Peninsula of Michigan. For those of you out

544
00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,160
Speaker 1: there who have been, you know it's spectacular in the summer.

545
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,840
Speaker 1: For those of you who haven't been, probably the people

546
00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,600
Speaker 1: who go would say, don't tell anyone, it's spectacular in

547
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 1: the summer, So I'll pretend that I didn't say it.

548
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 1: But all the way up through the up We're gonna

549
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: go up to Macinaw Traverse City area and make our

550
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,560
Speaker 1: way around there. Should be perfect weather. Can't wait. And

551
00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:56,760
Speaker 1: then when we come back, kids will be in school,

552
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,320
Speaker 1: and for me, Buck basically falls underway because I'm gonna

553
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 1: be on road for college football tour and we got

554
00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 1: the mid terms coming up. It's basically gonna be a

555
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:07,520
Speaker 1: full sprint all the way through. You got the wedding

556
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: party coming up and the actual wedding, and you know

557
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: this time around, as I will be attending my second

558
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,640
Speaker 1: SEC football game with you, I want to go all

559
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: in this time. So it's gonna be what we're gonna

560
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: do Texas in Alabama, maybe I need We're gonna be

561
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: in Austin. Yeah, so I think I gotta have a

562
00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 1: big red a that I paint on my chest, maybe

563
00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: some face paint. I don't know if I think you're

564
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 1: bringing your brothers because you were like, Hey, this is

565
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,120
Speaker 1: gonna be a fun experience. So we're gonna be in Austin.

566
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 1: I'll write roll on my chest and my brother will

567
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:38,200
Speaker 1: have tied on his chest. You know, we want to go.

568
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,400
Speaker 1: We want to go all in on this one. Man.

569
00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:42,719
Speaker 1: I don't I know, now that I've seen the full experience,

570
00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,000
Speaker 1: I want to really lean into it. I'm actually kind

571
00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 1: of excited. I haven't been to a big game in

572
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,800
Speaker 1: Austin before, so I know we're number one in Austin, Texas.

573
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be September. But what's amazing is basically

574
00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 1: we're three months out from the mid terms and we

575
00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 1: tried to have some optimism about the mask Manday Julia losing.

576
00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 1: Gonna be honest, some of these numbers coming out of

577
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:07,239
Speaker 1: some of these Senate races, in particular Pennsylvania little bit

578
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 1: apprehensive in terms of whether that might be trending towards

579
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 1: a law c It'd be very disappointing if all that

580
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,080
Speaker 1: happened was the house flipped. You really want to have

581
00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:22,120
Speaker 1: the entire entirety of Congress in Republican hands, because let's

582
00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 1: be honest, it'll just even further limit the damage that

583
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,920
Speaker 1: the rest of the Biden eight hundred billion more dollars basically.

584
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,160
Speaker 1: And so I do think you know that that Georgia race.

585
00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,160
Speaker 1: We talked to President Trump about herschel and you're you're

586
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 1: pretty confident in that one. With with Kemp as the

587
00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,920
Speaker 1: governor doing well, I just feel like he's gonna have

588
00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: some coattails. Kemp, I think, is going to beat Stacey Abrams.

589
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 1: She may even get beaten bad enough that she has

590
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,840
Speaker 1: to concede. And I feel like herschel is going to

591
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 1: get pulled maybe across the finish line, partly by the

592
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:54,120
Speaker 1: strength of the Kemp Canada when you come back from

593
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: the By the way, if you're from the northern Michigan peninsula,

594
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,800
Speaker 1: did they call them you upers? Is that right? Or

595
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 1: yupper the up like? And and my wife is from Michigan.

596
00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: So you can basically describe the entire state by just

597
00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 1: holding I'm in your hands. That's pretty good for a

598
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 1: Manhattan got it just pulled that out of thin air.

599
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I've I've went to I think it.

600
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: I went to central Michigan, so if Michigan's like a Mitten,

601
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: I remember I spent some time. I gave a speech

602
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 1: to a Republican group in the dead center of Michigan. Yes,

603
00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,080
Speaker 1: and man, it was that yipsil Anti. I think it

604
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: was kind of kind of stogo. Does that sound right? Oh,

605
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,000
Speaker 1: we obviously know the state. I was close to it.

606
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 1: I was close. I'm gonna be all over Yes, the

607
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,560
Speaker 1: up You're correct about that right where the bridge around

608
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,760
Speaker 1: Mackinaw connects the lower peninsula of Michigan to the upper peninsula,

609
00:32:38,160 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 1: and it is it looks like the Bahamas there. I mean,

610
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:46,720
Speaker 1: in the summer, the water off of Mackinaw is pretty incredible.

611
00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 1: Now it's freezing still sometimes, but it's gonna be a

612
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:50,920
Speaker 1: fun trip. So I'm gonna be up there. You're gonna

613
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: be holding down the fort and who knows what chaos

614
00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:56,840
Speaker 1: might befall us because we got so much that Congress

615
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:58,560
Speaker 1: is trying to get done this coming week. What's the

616
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:02,080
Speaker 1: what's the kickback we're allowing Clay Travis and missus Travis,

617
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 1: what you guys, what do you guys like to do?

618
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 1: I mean, you're out here playing golf right now? Does

619
00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:08,360
Speaker 1: she golf? She did, but I think if we had

620
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 1: continued to play together we would be divorced already. She

621
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 1: was not. I'm not a very good golfer. She has

622
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:18,440
Speaker 1: perfect form, but not very good at ball striking. We'll say,

623
00:33:19,120 --> 00:33:22,600
Speaker 1: maybe fortunate for me. And it ends up. It ends

624
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 1: up so that we're out on the course for like

625
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 1: five and a half six hours, and so it's not

626
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 1: good when you're on an eighteen whole course for five

627
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: and a half or six hours at a lot of

628
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 1: swings out there. So no, So what I'm gonna do is,

629
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna not do television. I'm gonna not write, I'm

630
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 1: gonna not do any radio. You gotta be reading a

631
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 1: book for fun. What's the book? The book I'm going

632
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,000
Speaker 1: to decide? I think I'm gonna read this History of Cuba.

633
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,720
Speaker 1: This is a nerdy really there's a brand new book

634
00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 1: all about how Cuba came to exist as it does today,

635
00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 1: and I have bought it. It's in my travel bag

636
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: and my plan is to read the History of Cuba

637
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:01,960
Speaker 1: while I'm so can I can? I throw one in

638
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: the mix for you. And this is also a good

639
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 1: beach reader. This is an older one, got my but

640
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 1: I recommended this to Carry's dad recently, and so now

641
00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:10,880
Speaker 1: it's it's on my mind. Shadow Divers. Do you know

642
00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: about that? You told us about a dinner we went

643
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,720
Speaker 1: out to dinner or you were talking about the Shadow

644
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 1: Divers right, No, I was not familiar with it. I'm

Speaker 1: pretty yeah. Have any of you guys in the room

649
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: read any book that we mentioned. Have you noticed that

650
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,960
Speaker 1: I think they read? I don't. I feel like they

651
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 1: read like my eleven year old reads. We have to

652
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 1: put on the Alexa timer and tell him he has

653
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 1: to go for twenty minutes, and then after like twelve

654
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,479
Speaker 1: he's on YouTube. Well so crazy. So what I'm giving

655
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 1: you here is there we go. We got We got

656
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:48,480
Speaker 1: our buddy Craig in here, who's got London Rules. He

657
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: actually had. He actually has a book in his bag

658
00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 1: that's kind of s that's basically I got served. But

659
00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 1: for anybody out there, the Shadow Divers book, it's about

660
00:34:57,080 --> 00:35:00,640
Speaker 1: these these wreck divers. I actually listen to it on

661
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,040
Speaker 1: tape and liked it so much I went back and

662
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: got a copy of it to read because I kind

663
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 1: of miss things when I listened on tape. I'm not

664
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:07,960
Speaker 1: a listen on tape guy, but I was listening to

665
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 1: it on audible and then I went back and got

666
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: it and they find a U boat that had no

667
00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:16,400
Speaker 1: one knew where this U boat came from. It's just

668
00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,960
Speaker 1: an amazing story. Also, wreck diving. It's one of those

669
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 1: things I love to read about because I'm like, I

670
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,400
Speaker 1: am never going to do that. You know. It's when

671
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: you see those guys were jumping in the squirrel suits

672
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 1: and going, you know, one hundred and eighty miles an

673
00:35:27,160 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 1: hour on the side of a mountain. I'm like, that

674
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: is so cool to watch on the go procam. I'm

675
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 1: never doing. Have you been scuba dive certified? Nope, never

676
00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 1: been scuba diving. So that's one regret that I have.

677
00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 1: When I lived in the Caribbean, I was practicing law

678
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: down there. It's perfectly clear waters and it's safe to

679
00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,840
Speaker 1: get certified scuba diving in theory there. That's one of

680
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 1: the things that I wish you hit them. A tropical Island.

681
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,440
Speaker 1: How do you not get scuba. It's a fantastic question.

682
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 1: I blew it. I think my wife argued that we

683
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 1: should have done it. I don't. I was busy, I

684
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:56,320
Speaker 1: was working and we didn't do it. So you're like

685
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 1: the Lincoln Lawyer, but in Paradise and the Caribbean. Yeah

686
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,800
Speaker 1: that show, Yeah, yeah, yeah, that was a It was

687
00:36:00,840 --> 00:36:02,760
Speaker 1: a crazy place. I mean, you want to talk about

688
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,720
Speaker 1: the most lawless place in America still under the American flag,

689
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,799
Speaker 1: US Virgin Islands, I think is number one. I love

690
00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,480
Speaker 1: to get. We love to do a whole deep dive

691
00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 1: into some of the time with the crazy stuff that

692
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: was going on back in the early days in Claser.

693
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,919
Speaker 1: Maybe one day I'll start telling some CI stories. I'd

694
00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:20,720
Speaker 1: love to hear those two, as long as they're not classified.

695
00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 1: I don't want to get out of here neither confirm

696
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:24,880
Speaker 1: nor deny. I don't want them pulling me off the

697
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:27,280
Speaker 1: air to throw me in the handcuffs. All right, everybody,

698
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:30,440
Speaker 1: we really appreciate your rolling with us. Have a great weekend.

699
00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:32,560
Speaker 1: Like I said, I'll be in solo next week, but

700
00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,760
Speaker 1: just because Clay's on a wonderful vacation with his family

701
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:38,200
Speaker 1: in Northern Michigan. He could see him up there, you know,

702
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 1: give him. I don't know. Cheese curds. Is that what

703
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 1: they do it for? What they have cheese curds? What's

704
00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:46,840
Speaker 1: the thing in northern Michigan. They have cherries in Traverse City, right,

705
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 1: I was thinking Wisconsin. I think that was a food chair.

706
00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:55,720
Speaker 1: Traverse City's fantastic, my bad Fleet Travis and Buck Sexton

707
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,000
Speaker 1: on the front lines of
