1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of the Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:08,280 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in our number two Clay Travis 3 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,360 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. We are sitting here, I'm doing the 4 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: math on my fingers. Five days from the very first 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:18,079 Speaker 1: votes being able to be cast in this country in Iowa, 6 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,560 Speaker 1: as you soon will be able to have your voice heard. 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Ten months from the actual twenty twenty four election. A 8 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:28,080 Speaker 1: lot still to come. But I was thinking about that 9 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:32,360 Speaker 1: this morning, Buck, as I was doing my prep. If 10 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: you go back to ten months from now, right, you 11 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: go back to let's say, like March something like that 12 00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:45,599 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three, doesn't it feel like not very 13 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: much has changed when you consider again, we're a little 14 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,599 Speaker 1: bit less now than ten months I believe from the 15 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: actual election taking place. We've been kind of stuck in 16 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: a Trump is the favorite, and there hasn't really been 17 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 1: a very substantial movement for basically the last ten months 18 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: or so. In the immediate aftermath of November twenty twenty two, 19 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,679 Speaker 1: DeSantis surged. There was the idea that Trump was going 20 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: to face significant challenge in the Republican race. You'll remember 21 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: he announced just a few days after the midterm election, 22 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: and but by March he had kind of established a lead, 23 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: and for much of the last ten months there's been 24 00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: a pretty substantial lead. So would you agree with that 25 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: In general, there hasn't been much movement in the polling 26 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,560 Speaker 1: from about March to. 27 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: Now so far. I'm gonna let you. 28 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 3: I'm gonna let you say it because last time I 29 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: said that, the Destantis people got mad at me in 30 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 3: this audience. So I think that's what the data shows. 31 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 3: But Clay said at this time I didn't say it. 32 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: So the data does show over the last ten months 33 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: not a lot has changed. Now in five days, everybody 34 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: gets it's their opportunity to have their voice heard. I 35 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: think you have to consider Donald Trump to be a 36 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:10,640 Speaker 1: substantial favorite right now, regardless of who you're supporting in 37 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 1: the primaries. And I saw this study come down, this 38 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,239 Speaker 1: poll come down from the Detroit News, and the Detroit 39 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,839 Speaker 1: News has been polling people about Donald Trump going all 40 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 1: the way back to twenty sixteen. He has never led 41 00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:33,120 Speaker 1: this is Trump ever in any Detroit News poll that 42 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: has existed in the last basically eight years of his 43 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,720 Speaker 1: career as a politician. This poll that came out yesterday, 44 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: Trump is beating Biden by eight points, eight points. And 45 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 1: for those of you out this is Michigan, state of 46 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: Michigan alone. For those of you out there that say, oh, well, 47 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,359 Speaker 1: this is not a very big deal, again, I think 48 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: it's constant quinchell that for eight years they have been 49 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:09,400 Speaker 1: polling Donald Trump against everybody, whether it's Hillary Clinton, who 50 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: obviously Trump beat in twenty sixteen, whether it's Joe Biden 51 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty. 52 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 2: At this time in. 53 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 1: January of twenty twenty, Joe Biden was up seven points 54 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:25,800 Speaker 1: in the Detroit News poll on Trump, and eight points 55 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 1: is a lot third party candidates added in. 56 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 2: Trump is up twelve Buck. 57 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 1: And here's even a couple of other stats that stood out. 58 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe this massive numbers of people. Seventy seven 59 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 1: percent of Michiganders do not believe that Joe Biden should 60 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 1: run for reelection, only seventeen percent of Michigan residents. Again, 61 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: this is all from the Detroit News poll, of all 62 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: the polls that have come out for Joe Biden. And 63 00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,720 Speaker 1: one more little detail here, Buck that I do think 64 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: is significant. If you're like, well, that's just a rigged pole. 65 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: There's no way this would be an accurate reflection. They 66 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: polled Gretchen Whitmer, who you and I believe is an 67 00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: awful governor based on all the decisions that she made 68 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: during COVID and a lot of you out there who 69 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: couldn't get out on the lakes, which is a big 70 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: deal in Michigan. Remember when her husband was able somehow 71 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: to get his boat out on the lake and nobody 72 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 1: else could get their boats out. Gretchen Whitmer would beat 73 00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 1: Donald Trump according to this poll, forty nine to forty five. 74 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: So what Michiganers are saying is it's not necessarily that 75 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: Trump is a great candidate. It's that Biden is so 76 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 1: bad they have just decided he's not the guy. 77 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 2: So, Buck, I ask you this question. 78 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: If this were true, if Trump wins Michigan, there basically 79 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: isn't a pathway for Joe Biden to be elected president 80 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: of the United States. If this is true, then Trump 81 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: would win Pennsylvania. 82 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 2: I believe. 83 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 1: I think he would also win Wisconsin. But I think 84 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: also what's factored in here is there's a big Arab 85 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: population in Michigan, and the Israel and Hamas the Palestinian 86 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: situation has blown up in Joe Biden's face in a 87 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: big way. I saw this poll. I texted it to 88 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: you last night. As soon as I saw it, I said, 89 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 1: this is maybe the worst single poll that I've seen 90 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,839 Speaker 1: for Joe Biden that has come out in six or 91 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: seven months. My jaw dropped when I saw it. Do 92 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: you buy it? Do you think Trump, if the election 93 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 1: were today, would beat Biden comfortably in Michigan head to head? 94 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: Or do you think this poll for the first time 95 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 1: putting Trump in the lead in Michigan. Remember they've been 96 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: doing this for eight years, He's never been in the lead. 97 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: What's the story that we're getting here. 98 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, if the election were held today, Trump would win. 99 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 3: But the election is going to be held in eleven months, 100 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 3: and I don't think that we've seen what the full 101 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 3: fury of Democrat delusion is going to do to the 102 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 3: electorate once they remember that. You know, they have so 103 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 3: many aces up the sleeve that they can count on 104 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:28,839 Speaker 3: pretty much every election. Notably, the legacy corporate media overwhelmingly 105 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 3: going to be doing whatever they can not to support 106 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 3: Joe Biden so much as to just make sure that 107 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 3: Donald Trump becomes an unthinkable candidate for swing voters in 108 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 3: some of these places. So yeah, of course, right now, 109 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 3: if I'm a Democrat, I'm trying to think about this 110 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,039 Speaker 3: from the from the other side of the table. If 111 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:54,000 Speaker 3: I'm a Democrat strategist, I'm I am concerned. But I 112 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,839 Speaker 3: also I feel like, you know, for me, once, as 113 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 3: Bush said, can't get fooled again. And we're getting around 114 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 3: three of getting pooled here because twenty twenty two the 115 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 3: polls look great for Republicans and it was a really 116 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 3: disappointing result. Twenty twenty three, we did not do well 117 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 3: in key ballot initiatives, in key races. And now we're 118 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 3: going to twenty twenty four and we're saying, oh, but 119 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,800 Speaker 3: look at how far ahead Trump is looking, how far 120 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 3: ahead Trump is. You know, this is the first time 121 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 3: that we've seen all of this. So I understand there's 122 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 3: not any to your point, there's not any easy corollary 123 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 3: or easy comparison to the past where Donald Trump has 124 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 3: been so far ahead. What did they do to change that? 125 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 3: But I just feel like we're so far ahead of 126 00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 3: where a lot of things are going to be decided. 127 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 3: Where does all this legal stuff end up with Trump? Remember, 128 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 3: if we were sitting here. This is like the point 129 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 3: of humility that I try to keep in mind, Clays, 130 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 3: if we were sitting here in January of twenty twenty, 131 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 3: we would have been having the same discussion about Trump's reelection, 132 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 3: not necessarily based on the polls, but just economies, roaring 133 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 3: everything is awesome. Trump is kicked butt like it's amazing. 134 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 3: He's gonna coast, and we wouldn't know who the Democrat 135 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,559 Speaker 3: candidate would be at that point. I'm trying to remember 136 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 3: who was who was kind of a gosh, I'm trying 137 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 3: to remember who was the like the leading burn It 138 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 3: was Bernie, Right, Yeah, he's gonna go against He's gonna 139 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 3: go in against the socialist. It's gonna be a joke. 140 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 3: And then COVID and then BLM and then you know, 141 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 3: the markets and the world change. 142 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:33,199 Speaker 2: Right. 143 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 3: I'm not saying that it's gonna get like that in 144 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:42,120 Speaker 3: terms of black swan events or fat tail events. You know, 145 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 3: these are things you can't foresee, low probability, high impact things. 146 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 3: What I am saying though, is, you know, we got 147 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 3: to look at what's happening as it comes, because nobody 148 00:08:54,040 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 3: could have predicted that, and I'm not sure anybody can 149 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 3: predict what the Democrat plan is going to be, whether 150 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 3: it's Biden or even theoretically, if I'm wrong and it's 151 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: somebody else, you know, Biden, Harris or somebody else. 152 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 2: They they have a lot of cards to play, a 153 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 2: lot of tricks up the sleeve. 154 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 3: We have four indictments that have not played out fully 155 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 3: yet against Trump. 156 00:09:12,880 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: We've got these. 157 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 3: I think the state ballot thing is a straight up 158 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 3: loser for them. I don't see how that. I think 159 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 3: the Supreme Court just swats that down. Maybe that's a 160 00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 3: base turnout mechanism, but I don't know, man, I just 161 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 3: I just feel like, yeah, okay, fine, the polls look 162 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 3: great right now, but it's a long race and we 163 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 3: got a lot of laps to go. 164 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: I'm way more interested in the state polls than I 165 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: am the national polls in general. And I wanted to 166 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,320 Speaker 1: hit you with this too, because they also pulled the 167 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: Michiganders on what issues matter the most. And the reason 168 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: why I say I care more about the state poles 169 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: is the race is going to come down to like 170 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: six or seven states, and Michigan is one of them. 171 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:54,959 Speaker 1: And this is why I think I would be a 172 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: little bit panicked you asked, if you were a Democrat, 173 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: what issues do people care about the most? Okay, I 174 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 1: mean six yeah, sixteen percent is jobs in the economy. 175 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: That's that makes sense, okay. Second most frequent border and immigration, 176 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: Third most frequent inflation and the cost of living. The 177 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: first three issues are all massive underwater issues for Joe Biden. 178 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:27,439 Speaker 1: And then they get into protecting American democracy, which Biden 179 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: has made a focal point of his reelection. Bid gets 180 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 1: just four percent, as this is the most important issue. 181 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 1: Foreign policy seven percent, And here's one that I think 182 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: is a big deal. And maybe Michigan's a bit different 183 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: because they had the referendum in twenty twenty two, but 184 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: abortion only at five percent. So just file this away 185 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: in the back of your in the back of your mind. 186 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:03,160 Speaker 1: Biden's two issues right now are democracy and abortion, and 187 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 1: I don't think they're really resonating at all, and that's 188 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: why I would be super nervous. And in a toss 189 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: up state like Michigan, people don't even care about the 190 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 1: two issues that Biden's trying to make central to the election. 191 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 3: So let me let me ask you then, or let's 192 00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 3: put out there Democrats are not going to sit back 193 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 3: and allow this to just go on. So this is 194 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 3: why I think that for your analysis right now, it's 195 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 3: the polls are so bad that it cannot be Joe Biden, 196 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 3: and therefore everything that goes on between now and that 197 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:42,880 Speaker 3: switch doesn't really matter because probably Trump, but maybe somebody 198 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 3: else Republican is going to be running against excuse me, 199 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: running against somebody who is not Joe Biden. Is that 200 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 3: is that basically what at all? 201 00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 2: I think. 202 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 1: I think they will try to beat the democracy racism 203 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 1: abortion drum for the next four or five months. 204 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 3: And I think that on Fortunately, what we saw in 205 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two is we thought that was silly and worthless, 206 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 3: because give me a break, and they did it, and 207 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 3: they beat that drum, and they did it month after month, 208 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 3: day after day, and it worked. And so now we're 209 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 3: sitting here, we're saying, oh my gosh, Joe Biden so 210 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:18,560 Speaker 3: far behind. Trump is so far ahead. They have not 211 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,760 Speaker 3: started it yet. They have not started. 212 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: The one challenge here I would say is I think 213 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: there is an element of Trump is already defined historically. 214 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: There's a good analogy. You know, Bill Clinton lost as 215 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: the governor of Arkansas one race. People don't remember this, 216 00:12:38,240 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton was the sitting governor, and then he lost 217 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:45,720 Speaker 1: the election, and he came back and he re won, 218 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: and then he came back and obviously ended up getting 219 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:51,160 Speaker 1: elected president in nineteen ninety two and becoming a national figure. 220 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:55,439 Speaker 1: But they found something interesting after he had gotten beaten 221 00:12:55,480 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: in that second race. No attacks worked on him Arkansas 222 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,880 Speaker 1: when he ran for reelection to come back as governor, 223 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:08,959 Speaker 1: because everything that could be said that was negative about 224 00:13:09,040 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: him had already been factored in by the electorate. I 225 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 1: want some of you, in the back of your mind 226 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,480 Speaker 1: just to think. I was thinking about that analogy this week. 227 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,960 Speaker 1: We'd never really seen a situation like this where you 228 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: have basically two incumbent presidents running against each other. 229 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: So you're super confident that Donald Trump is going to 230 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 3: win re election. I'm sorry, well, it would be reelect 231 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:30,599 Speaker 3: well kind of right. I mean, he's you know what 232 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:32,599 Speaker 3: I mean, that he will win election and be a 233 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 3: second term president. 234 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: If I were betting right now and you gave me 235 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:41,760 Speaker 1: and I had to bet right, I would put all 236 00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: of my money on Trump will be re elected as 237 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:48,040 Speaker 1: president right now this day. I mean, if you made 238 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: me bet on what he said, I don't even know 239 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,840 Speaker 1: what the day is. Let me look, if you made 240 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:55,120 Speaker 1: me bet on January tenth, it's exactly almost ten months. 241 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 2: Can they be clear? 242 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 3: I mean I would make the same bet, except I 243 00:13:58,800 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 3: would want odds because you're calling something really far out right. 244 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,960 Speaker 3: How it's not do you think Trump can win? How confident? 245 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 3: You're sounding very very confident in January of twenty January tenth. 246 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: If I had to make a bet, I would say 247 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: it is seventy five twenty five that Trump would get elected. 248 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 2: Right now? 249 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 3: Wow, well, my sense is way more boring. I think 250 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:26,320 Speaker 3: it's fifty one forty nine, and the one percent is 251 00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 3: my hope and my hope. 252 00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 1: This is underlying why I think that they're going to 253 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,840 Speaker 1: break the glass with Joe Biden, because I think they're 254 00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: gonna try. 255 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 2: I think you're right. 256 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 1: I think they're going to trot out all of their 257 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: anti Trump campaign. But what I'm saying is everything has 258 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: stayed pretty stationary for the last ten months. 259 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 3: But think about this, man, this is the you know 260 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 3: we also, I just I want to learn the recent 261 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 3: lessons the right way for the electric, for the country, 262 00:14:55,880 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 3: for the GOP. We've spent now three years diving into 263 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 3: all the all the Machi Avilion. By the way, machi 264 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 3: Velli the Prince is fantastic work. I don't know people 265 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 3: would say Machi Evlian like it's like it's a bad thing. 266 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 3: Like it's a bad thing. I mean, you know, it's 267 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 3: a smart guy. You know, he didn't want to get 268 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 3: locked up by uh, you know, Lorenzo de Medici or whatever. 269 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: Like anyway, point being, probably I think it was Cosmo 270 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 3: was one of the other ones. Point being, I think 271 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 3: that we saw Democrats pull a lot of. 272 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 2: Things in twenty twenty and fair and unfair, right, yeah, 273 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 2: legal and not legal, right. 274 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:33,640 Speaker 3: I mean I understand that people say, oh but there, 275 00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,400 Speaker 3: you know, I know what people's initial impulses. But my 276 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 3: point is, just, okay, how are they going to do 277 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 3: that again? Because they're going to do that again. They're 278 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 3: not going to march forward with Biden or any other 279 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:44,560 Speaker 3: candidate and go oh. 280 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: We're we're behind in the polls and democracy, They're going 281 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: to be nasty. 282 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 1: I think I think the challenge is they sold Biden 283 00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,120 Speaker 1: as an unknown quantity in twenty twenty, you effectively are 284 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: running two incumbents. 285 00:15:57,600 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: You thought they sold them as an un I wouldn't 286 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:00,640 Speaker 3: agree with that, and now I don't think he sold 287 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 3: them as an unknown quantity. 288 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: Joe Biden was eight years Yeah, Okay, what I mean 289 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: unknown quantity? I mean they bought in. They allowed people 290 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 1: to build him as a vessel of. 291 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 2: Anti trump dom. Oh, it was a construct of what 292 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 2: he was. Yeah. Sure. 293 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 1: So now people actually have seen the reality of Joe Biden, 294 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 1: and the reality of Joe Biden is very different than 295 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: what we were sold. 296 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: And so this is a rare election. 297 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: You have two incumbents, and my thesis is Trump is 298 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 1: defined everybody. There's not a single person in America who 299 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 1: is going to have their opinion of Trump changed. 300 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 2: People may not like. 301 00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 1: Him, but they think he's capable of the job Biden. 302 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: I think Americans when I see seventy seven percent of 303 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 1: michigan Ers say they don't want him to run for reelection, 304 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: people may have decided Biden can't do the job. And 305 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: if you have a choice between a guy you don't 306 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 1: like necessarily but you think can do the job, and 307 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,720 Speaker 1: it got you've decided can't do the job, the guy 308 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:06,239 Speaker 1: you don't like is going to be the choice. And 309 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 1: I think that's what the election is right now. It's 310 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 1: a referendum on Biden's incompetence. 311 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,399 Speaker 3: And yet now the latest of me, yeah, the latest 312 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 3: economist Paul here is Trump forty three, Biden forty three 313 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:24,320 Speaker 3: dead heat, right, but remember if I know he'll win 314 00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 3: if he's so but if he's so bad, you would 315 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 3: think that. 316 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 2: It would be more. 317 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: Look, there's forty there's probably forty three percent of Americans 318 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,719 Speaker 1: that would vote for a dead body against Donald Trump. 319 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 3: Yes, and that's what that's what the Democrats are counting on, 320 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 3: and that's why it all turns into just moving it 321 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:44,679 Speaker 3: on that on that little tiny grid zone of the 322 00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 3: votes they need where they need them, on the night 323 00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 3: they need them, or in the weeks after. 324 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 2: Or the month. 325 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, for election season, we should say, yeah, look, 326 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 3: I hope you're right. By the way, I'm gonna mark 327 00:17:56,720 --> 00:18:00,680 Speaker 3: this one down on in January of twenty twenty four seven, 328 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 3: is it even officially the nominee?

This is one of our VIPs I 382 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: wanted to give.

You don't 387 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 1: want Trump to win because there will be riots.

Your mindset is like the 393 00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: chaotic music that you play in the beginning of your show. 394 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: This is Bill. This is where you're headed. 395 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 2: Buck. By the way, I mean, it's one thing. 396 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 3: It's one thing to say you're a paid agent of Biden, 397 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 3: but to mess with our theme song, Bill, Bill, come on, 398 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 3: you gotta give it a chance. 399 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:36,640 Speaker 2: Bill's not even done. 400 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: Bill just brought like a you know, an automatic firing. 401 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 1: He's taken out everything. Bill continued, Buck, So I'm a hypocrite. 402 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: I don't want Trump to win because there will be riots. 403 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:55,159 Speaker 1: I'm being paid off by Democrats. I'm an elitist that 404 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: has picked awful music to play on the show. 405 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 2: It continues Bill. 406 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 1: That's all what Bill said, and then he makes a 407 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: pivot here Buck, I swear this is directly from the 408 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:11,720 Speaker 1: VIP as far as the College National Championship comments you made. 409 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 2: Oh what? This is a lot of range for Bill. 410 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: Bill legitimately hates everything that I have said on any subject. 411 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: So Bill went from you're paid by the Democrats, I 412 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:23,360 Speaker 1: hate you. 413 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 2: You're an elitist, your music. 414 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: Sucks to then he pivots as far as the College 415 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: National Championship comments you made. Remember, it's easy to win 416 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,880 Speaker 1: when you can recruit the way Harbad did. The top 417 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 1: named colleges have been doing it for years. Your heroes. 418 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,320 Speaker 1: One last thing, you act and talk like. 419 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 2: The rhino you are. 420 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: So Bill just served me from top to bottom all day. 421 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: And the reason, first of all, this amazing email. I 422 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:55,280 Speaker 1: appreciate Bill, thankful for him listening. Disagree with everything that 423 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: I've said. Also not really understanding anything that I've said, 424 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: but that's a whole nother story. Simultaneously, and you get this, 425 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: tu Buck, you can be as we get closer to 426 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,399 Speaker 1: the primary, and this is this is where it's very 427 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: much like sports. You can simultaneously, in the mind of 428 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 1: people who are die hard Ron DeSantis supporters, be a 429 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:24,359 Speaker 1: die hard Donald Trump supporter who is indefensibly biased, And 430 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:27,400 Speaker 1: in the mind of a Trump supporter, you can simultaneously 431 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 1: be a die hard Rond de Santa supporter who doesn't 432 00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: believe that that Trump I'm paid to try to keep 433 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,240 Speaker 1: Trump from being elected. 434 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 3: I think the mission statement here should should always be clear, 435 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 3: and it's want what's best for the country. A Republican 436 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 3: defeating Joe Biden is what's best for the country. I 437 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 3: don't know. I don't think anybody can really know at 438 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 3: this point what the Democrats have fully planned. But we 439 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 3: want the best Republican candidate we can have who wins 440 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 3: this primary is going to be up against what I 441 00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 3: think is going to be a males of a whole 442 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 3: range of things, lies, cheating, Democrat apparatus, funding, you know, 443 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 3: social media tilting the scale. But you know it is 444 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,880 Speaker 3: possible to sit here and say, and I think it's 445 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 3: I try to be very honest about this. I think 446 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,280 Speaker 3: you try to be very honest about this, Clay. I 447 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 3: thought Donald Trump did a did a good job when 448 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,359 Speaker 3: he was president. I think that Ron DeSantis has done 449 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 3: a a plus job as governor of Florida. I think 450 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:30,760 Speaker 3: that Vivek Ramaswami has made quite a name for himself 451 00:24:30,800 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 3: and been a very interesting component of the debates and 452 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 3: the discussion. He's not I don't think that he's really 453 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 3: gotten much in the way of polling numbers. But you know, 454 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 3: and then Nikki Haley, I start to get a little 455 00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:43,359 Speaker 3: I tend to be a little critical, more critical of 456 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 3: her stated positions. And then we even get to and 457 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 3: I can say why, But I just think, as somebody 458 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,800 Speaker 3: who spent some time in Iraq and some time in 459 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 3: Afghanistan during those wars and saw what our war fighters 460 00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 3: were doing and what they were up against and what 461 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,639 Speaker 3: the mission was, and saw the intelligence at the highest levels. 462 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: There were big problems with the strategies. 463 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 3: There were big problems with that, and we saw this 464 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,119 Speaker 3: with the Biden disastrous withdrawal out of Afghanistan. 465 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 2: But at least but look, if it's Nicky Haley or 466 00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. 467 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd rather have Nicki Haley obviously, so if she 468 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 3: became the nominee, I it sport her. Chris Christie and 469 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 3: I used to like Christy. I mean, look, I sit 470 00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 3: here and say, I'm a former Romney voter. Everybody, I 471 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 3: voted for Mitt Romney in twenty twelve, and I gotta 472 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,480 Speaker 3: live with that. But I mean mean I was Mitt 473 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 3: Romney or Barack Obama. It's one of the best things 474 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,040 Speaker 3: that Ramsral ever said. You go to war with the 475 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 3: army you have. I know which army I want to win, 476 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 3: or which side I want to win. I just don't 477 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 3: assume know who the general is going to be. 478 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 2: Chris Christy. I'm a little worried. 479 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 3: Though he's gone to the like he's gone to the 480 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 3: dark side. Like I'm a little worried Chris Christie. The 481 00:25:50,359 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 3: force has has left him and he is now turning 482 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 3: into like Christi Vader or you know something like that. 483 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 3: I got Sawron has gotten him with the I've got 484 00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,800 Speaker 3: a Chris Christy quote for you that you haven't seen 485 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 3: yet or heard. And let me just say this, I 486 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 3: would say the biggest pivot for me during the course 487 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 3: of this Republican campaign for the primary, as people get 488 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:16,000 Speaker 3: ready to vote five days from now, I really believe 489 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:17,320 Speaker 3: and I've said this. I think for a couple of 490 00:26:17,359 --> 00:26:20,879 Speaker 3: months now, the story to me has shifted from who's 491 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 3: the most likely to beat Biden to if Biden is 492 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 3: the nominee, then I think Ron DeSantis, Nikki Haley, vivek Ramaswami, 493 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 3: and Donald Trump. 494 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:33,160 Speaker 1: I legitimately believe this. I think if all for any 495 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 1: of those four guys and Orgal were the nominee, I 496 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: think that they would all beat Biden. And I think 497 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 1: Democrats are slowly coming to the I really do. 498 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 3: I think you are underestimating the Democrat death star here, 499 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 3: I really do do. 500 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 2: I think that we can run. 501 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 3: I'm really going with the analogies here, or the metaphors, 502 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 3: analogies whatever, going with the X wing. 503 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,160 Speaker 2: Can we hit the death star? 504 00:26:58,359 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 3: Yes we can. We can take it out. But the 505 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 3: death star is big and it is a challenge. Okay, 506 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 3: the Democrat death star, whether it's old Man Biden or 507 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 3: Kamalaw or whomever, it's going to be really hard, really hard. 508 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 2: I think if it's Biden that he has done I 509 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 2: really do. 510 00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: But but but. 511 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 2: Here is what Chris Christy is saying. 512 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna go back to the prime for everybody 513 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,600 Speaker 1: out there who's mad because I'm talking about the general election. 514 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:28,359 Speaker 3: You want Clay to be the coach of your like 515 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 3: high school team, by the way, because even if you 516 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 3: got your butts kicked last season, He's like, we're the 517 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 3: best team in the state. 518 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: We're the best team in the state. 519 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: I do not lack for confidence. I actually had this 520 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: conversation with my wife the other day. There was a 521 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 1: my middle son is the most like for me in confidence, 522 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:47,440 Speaker 1: and like he said something and he walked out of 523 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 1: the room, and I was like, can you believe? 524 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,960 Speaker 2: Do you believe? The hutspa and this kid? And my 525 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 2: wife is like, yes, it's you. 526 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,640 Speaker 1: Every single day that we've been married for the last 527 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 1: twenty some odd years. 528 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 3: You talk the exact stay the people have spoken right 529 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 3: in VIPs. You want more Clay voices. 530 00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 1: That is my voice for everybody out for the primary 531 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: people out there, all right, I gotta tell you, Chris Christy, 532 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 1: is I really believe potentially going to keep Nicki Haley 533 00:28:18,040 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: from winning New Hampshire because everybody that is voting for 534 00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: Chris Christy would otherwise, I believe, I believe it's one 535 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 1: hundred percent would otherwise vote for Nicki Haley. There's nobody 536 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,879 Speaker 1: voting for Chris Christy that would otherwise. 537 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 3: Those numbers in front of me Trump thirty nine, Haley 538 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:34,960 Speaker 3: thirty two, Christy twelve. 539 00:28:35,160 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 2: So there you go. 540 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 1: Okay, So Christy is now saying why will he not 541 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,680 Speaker 1: drop out? He's getting asked that question a lot. Here's 542 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: a direct quote from Chris Christy. I've never heard this 543 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 1: argument made. I'm curious if you've heard it. 544 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 2: Buck. 545 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: Let's say I dropped out of the race right now 546 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 1: and I supported Nicky Haley, and then three months from now, 547 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 1: four months from now, when you're ready to go to 548 00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: the convention, she comes out as his Donald Trump's vice president. 549 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 2: What will I look like? 550 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 1: What will all the people who supported her at my 551 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: behest look like. Chris Christie says he will not in 552 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:15,280 Speaker 1: vote endorse Nicky Haley because he's afraid she'll be Trump's 553 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: vice president. Have you ever seen that argument made in 554 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 1: the history of politics? 555 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 2: I have not, and I would say. 556 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 3: Interesting, I. 557 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: Don't. 558 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,640 Speaker 3: I don't think it's beyond beyond possibility that Nicky Haley 559 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 3: actually might end up as Trump's VP. 560 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 2: I agree with you on that. 561 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,400 Speaker 3: I know some people don't like to hear that, but 562 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 3: maybe I'm wrong, So maybe they're right not to want 563 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 3: to hear that. But I think Trump I think for 564 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 3: people that want Trump to be the nominee, he can 565 00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 3: pick whoever his VP is and we all are supposed 566 00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 3: to just say that's great. So that's that. I don't 567 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 3: think there'll be any pushback whatsoever. So does that mean 568 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 3: it could be Nicky Haley? 569 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 2: Yes? Do I think it will be Nicky Haley? 570 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:55,680 Speaker 1: No? 571 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: But I think she's in the top three right now. 572 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: At how strange of an argument is that for Chris 573 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: Christy he has zero So he has zero percent. 574 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 2: Chance of being the Republican nominee. See he's zero. 575 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's playing spoiler across the board. That's why I 576 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,760 Speaker 3: said he is. It's not like the Chris Christie that 577 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 3: we will remember everybody. He was talking to Trump about 578 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 3: being his attorney general. So just keep that in mind. 579 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 3: That was a very real thing, that was and the 580 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 3: reason he didn't get it was because Chris Christy prosecuted 581 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 3: Jared Kushner's father. That's actually why Chris Christy was not 582 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 3: attorney general. If anybody needs a reminder, Jared Kushner's father 583 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 3: was a convicted felon. Chris Christy was the US attorney 584 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 3: in New Jersey at the time, and that is why 585 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 3: Chris Christy was not your attorney general. And Jeff Sessions 586 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 3: became your attorney general. And then I remember sitting down 587 00:30:46,040 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 3: with Trump early on the Trump presidency and he said, 588 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,120 Speaker 3: I don't even having an attorney general. And I was like, 589 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 3: but we just talked to Jeff Sessions, sir, he's your 590 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 3: attorney general. 591 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 2: So I remember all of this. 592 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 1: All right, Buck, will you watch one minute of the 593 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: NFL playoffs?

So I know you 677 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 2: feel bad about voting for Romney. I had to vote 678 00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: for Jimmy Carter. But anyway back to that, I appreciate 679 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:12,439 Speaker 2: we could still be friends. Bill. 680 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,399 Speaker 3: You could forgive me for my Romney vote. I did 681 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:17,360 Speaker 3: what I could. It was twenty twelve, go ahead, I did. 682 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:17,799 Speaker 2: The same thing. 683 00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:22,000 Speaker 1: It wasn't a choice. But anyway, you know, after twenty 684 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: twenty it was a pulls show. 685 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 2: That seventeen percent of the people would have changed their 686 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 2: vote after they found out about Hunter Biden. What's changed? 687 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 2: Why is that any different at this point? 688 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,759 Speaker 1: I think that thank you for the call. This is 689 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 1: a discussion we had in the first hour. I do 690 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:42,080 Speaker 1: think that Hunter Biden is a cloud that is following 691 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:45,760 Speaker 1: around Joe Biden, and I think there will be consequences 692 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 1: from his involvement in the twenty twenty four election cycle 693 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: at the ballot box. 694 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 2: Buck disagrees. I think nobody will. I think nobody will 695 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 2: care at all. 696 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: I think you can make both of those arguments and 697 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,000 Speaker 1: make legitimate arguments. 698 00:35:58,080 --> 00:35:59,720 Speaker 2: Right, we won't know for ten months. 699 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,280 Speaker 1: I think it just undercuts the idea that Joe Biden 700 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,799 Speaker 1: is somehow above the fray, which is how they sold him, 701 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:11,480 Speaker 1: right like, oh, grandfatherly Joe, Oh, he's such a good guy. 702 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,720 Speaker 1: And it actually turns out no, Joe Biden's super corrupt. 703 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 1: I think, even more corrupt than any of the worst 704 00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: things they said about Donald Trump. And so I think 705 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 1: that's why his brand so far to the election is 706 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 1: the story of Joe Biden. And the one advice I'd 707 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,440 Speaker 1: give to Donald Trump if he's the nominee or anyone 708 00:36:27,480 --> 00:36:31,040 Speaker 1: else if they're the nominee, is make Biden the story. 709 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 1: That's my biggest concern, honestly, is that Trump will not 710 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 1: get out of his own way. Biden's incompetent. If somebody 711 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: likes you on fire, don't go get in a hug 712 00:36:39,719 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 1: with him. But you do agree with my prediction, right, 713 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:45,439 Speaker 1: we're on the same page. Biden's not going to debate 714 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,719 Speaker 1: Trump one hundred percent. 715 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 2: Agree with that. No way
