1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:04,080 Speaker 1: Welcome Ack in final hour of the Week, Clay Travis 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Buck Sexton Show. Appreciate all of you hanging out with us. 3 00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: We'll take some of your calls in the course of 4 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:13,000 Speaker 1: the final hour of the week. Buck, We'll be back 5 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,720 Speaker 1: with me on Tuesday in Washington, d C. Will be 6 00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,640 Speaker 1: there together. I will be in DC starting on Monday. 7 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,400 Speaker 1: I had an awesome time running around all over the 8 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 1: place with my kids as school just ended. So I'm 9 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,080 Speaker 1: back with you guys for a while now, up until 10 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: July fourth. For sure. We're going to be talking with 11 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: New Gingrich former Speaker of the House at the bottom 12 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,960 Speaker 1: of the hour. I'm also told that our astrologer who 13 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,000 Speaker 1: called in from Rochester, New York to break down the 14 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: Trump and Elon controversy, she has also broken down my 15 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: astrology chart, and according to producer Greg, she will be 16 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 1: back with us at two forty five to tell us 17 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 1: how my prognosis looks. So fingers crossed on that that's 18 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 1: still to come. But I want to dive back into, 19 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 1: certainly the story of the day, which is the ongoing 20 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: fallout between Donald Trump and Elon Musk, and I spent 21 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 1: much of the first hour sort of psychologically analyzing it, 22 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 1: what I think brought on Elon Musk to me essentially 23 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: having its temper tantrum yesterday afternoon, Why I don't think 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,760 Speaker 1: that there is any truth at all to the Epstein 25 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: allegation against Trump from Elon, and what I think is 26 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,199 Speaker 1: really sort of the undercurrent of the conflict and why 27 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: it grew there. Top of the second hour, I dove 28 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 1: into how it impacts the so called Big Beautiful Bill 29 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: as it continues to work its way through the United 30 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: States Senate. And here I'll kind of dive back into 31 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: both of those components and explain why I think it's 32 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: so important that these guys work together going forward. So 33 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 1: I think it's so important for all of you to 34 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: go sign up for the Clay Travis buck Sexton podcast network, 35 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: because I know it is holiday season, it is summer 36 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 1: break time, and many people are going to be on 37 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: the road.

Okay, 50 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:53,600 Speaker 1: So why is it important that Trump and Elon have 51 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 1: a strong relationship going forward? Trump's president for the next 52 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:03,959 Speaker 1: three and a half years, so whatever Elon is wanting 53 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: to get done, he tweeted at some point, Hey, you've 54 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 1: only got Trump for the next three and a half years, 55 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: You've got me for the next forty. Maybe that's true. 56 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: I hope Elon is supremely healthy. He's fifty three years old. 57 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: I want everybody to have long and fertile lives, and 58 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: certainly Elon's had already quite a fertile life in the 59 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: literal sense and the figurative sense. But the evolution of 60 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: Elon is important beyond Trump. And let me explain why 61 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:36,920 Speaker 1: I think that is the case. So I want Trump 62 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: and Elon to get along well, because I believe that 63 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: since Elon endorsed Trump on July thirteenth, in the immediate 64 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: aftermath of the Butler Pennsylvania assassination attempt, that the country 65 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,640 Speaker 1: has benefited immensely from the partnership between Trump and Elon, 66 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: and that partnership really has only existed for about nine months. Right, 67 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 1: This is basically a Hollywood relationship length relationship. We have 68 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 1: a situation where Trump voted for Hillary Clinton in twenty 69 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 1: six twenty sixteen, where he voted for Joe Biden in 70 00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 1: twenty twenty and Elon didn't vote for Trump until July 71 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty four. If you have a right now, 72 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 1: but I got to meet Buck and Carrey's baby in 73 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: Palm Beach, James speed Sex, then awesome little kid. He's 74 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: only a couple months old, super cute. If you have 75 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 1: a let me do the math in my head. If 76 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:41,000 Speaker 1: you have a tad to count there, you saw the 77 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,600 Speaker 1: fingers move if you were watching on video. If you 78 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 1: have a ten month old kid or grandkid right now, 79 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:51,360 Speaker 1: that kid is the same age as the relationship between 80 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: Trump and Elon. This is a brand new relationship. There 81 00:04:56,800 --> 00:05:01,279 Speaker 1: is not a lot of basis behind it, and yet 82 00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: it's been incredibly productive and incredibly important I believe for 83 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: the success of the country, not only now but in 84 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: the years ahead. I think the twenty twenty four election 85 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: was incredibly consequential, and I do believe that even though 86 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 1: Trump has said I would have won the election even 87 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 1: if Elon had not gotten involved, I do believe that 88 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 1: Trump won a grander and more substantial election victory because 89 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: of Elon Musk's support than he would have if Elon 90 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: Musk had not endorsed it all, or if Elon Musk 91 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 1: had said, hey, I'm all on board for Kamala Harris. 92 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: But Elon Musk is relatively speaking, newly involved in politics. 93 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 1: I believe Elon's decision to buy Twitter turn it into 94 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:51,919 Speaker 1: x in twenty twenty two was profoundly transformative for the 95 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:55,719 Speaker 1: trajectory of the nation, not because at that time he 96 00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: espoused any particular political belief, but simply because is having 97 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: a truly robust and uninhibited marketplace of ideas is necessary 98 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: in order for this country to flourish, particularly in an 99 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,359 Speaker 1: ai age. Why do I think that, Why do I 100 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: think that we have to have a robust marketplace of ideas? 101 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: Especially in an AI age, because I believe and have 102 00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:30,239 Speaker 1: long believed, that the only way you get new, disruptive, 103 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: positive growth economically that is transformative is by having the 104 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 1: full scope of the marketplace of ideas available to create tours. 105 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: In other words, if you do not have intellectual freedom, 106 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: I think your ability to create new products is stifled. 107 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 1: That's why I think I don't hear nobody else make 108 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 1: this argument. That's why I think ultimately America stands to 109 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: dominate in AI like we have dominated in the Internet, 110 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: because I don't understand how Chinese AI can be reliable. 111 00:07:10,440 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 1: If the Chinese Internet does not allow me to know 112 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: about what happened in Tieneman Square, then how in the 113 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: world can it create the best possible landscape of responses 114 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: in the future when it's being censored in terms of 115 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: the results. This is why the whole COVID universe was 116 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: so offensive to me, because science is based on challenging 117 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: all authority. The entire basis of the scientific method is 118 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: distinguishing between a hypothesis and a theory and challenging everything. 119 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: So when you had doctor Fauci lecturing everyone and saying 120 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: I am the science, he was arguing against science himself, 121 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: because he was saying that science shouldn't be challenged. We 122 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: have to challenge everything, and the marketplace of ideas allows 123 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 1: everything to be challenged, but only if it is fairly applied, 124 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: evenly from a principled perspective. And I think what Elon 125 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 1: saw is Elon's ultimate goal is to put men on 126 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,640 Speaker 1: and women on Mars, to make us a multiplanetary species. 127 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: You can argue that you don't care about that, you 128 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: can think it's relatively inconsequential, insignificant even but that is 129 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: the spark that is fueling Elon's obsession with everything. And 130 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: I think what he recognized was, well, maybe I can 131 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 1: save the United States climate to some degree by electric vehicles, 132 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: but if I don't allow the meritocracy to flourish, if 133 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,079 Speaker 1: I do not allow the best man or the best 134 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: woman to get a job, if DEI triumphs, then ultimately 135 00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: it destroys our ability to make humanity a multiplanetary species, 136 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 1: because it doesn't unlock the great gifts of the most 137 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: talented among us and instead leads to some array of 138 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 1: cosmetic diversity. So you end up, frankly with Kamala Harris 139 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 1: and with Karine Jean Pierre. I'm not saying black women 140 00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:14,840 Speaker 1: aren't successful or can't be incredibly accomplished. Many of them can. 141 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: I am saying you cannot hire someone based on their 142 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: race and gender and argue that that is the justification 143 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:26,480 Speaker 1: for why they should have that position of power. Karine 144 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,200 Speaker 1: Jean Pierre, you're now hearing people inside the Biden White 145 00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,959 Speaker 1: House say, yeah, far from being a transformative figure because 146 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,000 Speaker 1: she was black and gay, she was actually really awful 147 00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: at her job and she didn't do basic homework. The 148 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: only reason Karine Jean Pierre was the White House chief 149 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: spokesperson was because she was black and gay. When you 150 00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: elevate people two positions that they otherwise are unable to 151 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: achieve and can't even do the job of because of 152 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:59,320 Speaker 1: their race and gender, then you are devaluing the meritocracy, 153 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 1: which ultimately destroys everything in terms of our ability to 154 00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: have the best possible result. And that, to me is 155 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 1: why Kamala Harris was the ultimate DEI candidate. She looks 156 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: like what people on the left think leaders should look like, 157 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: not based on anything she's done, just make based on 158 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 1: the cosmetic diversity. And I think what Elon recognizes is 159 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 1: that the only diversity that matters in America is diversity 160 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: of thought, because why do I care if a bunch 161 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:39,679 Speaker 1: of people who look different think the same. That's Harvard Sadly, 162 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 1: it's the Harvard faculty. The only thing that matters is 163 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: whether you're getting a variety of perspectives to allow you 164 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 1: to make the best possible decision to get the best result. 165 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 1: And so I think what Elon saw when he decided 166 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 1: to get Twitter is that the marketplace of ideas is broken, 167 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: then the overall American marketplace collapses. And I think what 168 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 1: he sees with AI is the ultimate value of the 169 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: best possible AI is going to determine the success or 170 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: failure in the future. Now, that requires moving fast, breaking 171 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 1: a lot of things. The government he tried to move fast, 172 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 1: and he tried to break a lot of things. One 173 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: of the things he said, Hey, if we get something wrong, 174 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 1: we'll go back and fix it. But it's better to 175 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 1: get something wrong and go back and fix it than 176 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 1: not to do anything at all. Most people in government 177 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,760 Speaker 1: actually would prefer not to do anything at all. They 178 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: don't want to really change what exists there. And so 179 00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,360 Speaker 1: in order for the future to matter in a substantial way, 180 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 1: we have to have people like Elon Musk involved because Trump, 181 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: he's right, only has three and a half more years 182 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 1: in office. And I think what you're seeing already is 183 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: there is a sweepstakes developing on the right to try 184 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: to become Elon's faith candidate in twenty twenty eight, because 185 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: the idea is if Elon spent three hundred million dollars 186 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: on Trump three hundred million dollars in a Republican primary 187 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: to help elevate his preferred candidate, could be the difference 188 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: maker between who is the nominee and who's not. Now, 189 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: the relationship between Elon and Jade Vance actually seems quite 190 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: strong because Elon said that Trump should be impeached and 191 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: jd Vance should be elevated. Now, Jadie Vance has responded 192 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 1: and basically said, hey, you know, Trump is doing amazing work. 193 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 1: He's an incredible guy. But this is the difficulty of 194 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 1: being vice president is Jade Vance posted a picture of 195 00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 1: himself with THEO Vaughn. I guess he was in town 196 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: here in Nashville doing a podcast and doing a fundraising 197 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: event in Nashville. But the analogy is really funny that 198 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: basically JD. Vance was the kid who gets sent to 199 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,960 Speaker 1: sleep over at a friend's house while mom and dad 200 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: are fighting. And I think the importance here for Elon 201 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: going forward is he can be a force for tremendous good. 202 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 1: But that is the challenge as it plays out going forward. 203 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: I hope that made sense. I think it did. But 204 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:15,160 Speaker 1: the significance of the conflict now is that Elon can 205 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: be a tremendous force for good going forward, and we 206 00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 1: need to make sure that he is still engaged at 207 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: a minimum, and certainly that he is not starting to 208 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: pull the levers for the other side, because then we 209 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: go back to the Twitter that happened in twenty twenty, 210 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:35,040 Speaker 1: which was rigged, where fair and free discourse is not allowed, 211 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: and where social media is putting its hand firmly on 212 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: the side of leftist politics. And unfortunately, I think that 213 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: leads to BLM riots. I think that leads to Joe 214 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 1: Biden weekend, to Bernie style presidencies. I think it leads 215 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: to immeasurable corruption. We need a fair and open marketplace 216 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,960 Speaker 1: of ideas where the best ideas can win. When President 217 00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,680 Speaker 1: Trump signed an executive order last month slashing the cost 218 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: of p scription drug prices, he was making a statement 219 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 1: he intends to see prescription medicine priced in this country 220 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: same price as you might find in Mexico throughout Europe. 221 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: The purpose is, let's reduce what we have to pay 222 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,720 Speaker 1: and make it more similar to what other countries play 223 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: but pay. But even when that fair pricing kicks in, 224 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 1: it's not going to help improve what you're getting with 225 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 1: Obamacare or the Affordable Care Act. It's anything but affordable. 226 00:14:24,760 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: They are better options out there.

We're going to be joined by 237 00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: new gingris here in a moment, new book Trump's Triumph, 238 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,600 Speaker 1: America's greatest comeback. We'll get what his thoughts are. I 239 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 1: know he was weighing in on Trump and Elon see 240 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,440 Speaker 1: what his latest thoughts are on that. Although I would 241 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,360 Speaker 1: point out again the temper tantrum theory from Elon is 242 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 1: quite I think Kojin at this point because he's been very, 243 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: very quiet. Also, you're probably not going to hear this 244 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:34,080 Speaker 1: many places, but the S and P five hundred gathering 245 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:38,480 Speaker 1: measurement of the five hundred largest companies in America is 246 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 1: back over six thousand, and within a one and a 247 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 1: half point one and a half percentage or so from 248 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: an all time high. I wanted to make sure that 249 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: I mentioned that to you because I do think it's 250 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 1: consequential when everybody out there was telling you panic, Oh 251 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: my goodness, what in the world's going on, the world's 252 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: falling apart? Your stocks. If you had bought at the 253 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 1: bottom of the stock market, you would have made twenty 254 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:13,240 Speaker 1: percent from those bottom levels just by not panicking and 255 00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: buying more stocks instead of selling. If you are the 256 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,360 Speaker 1: kind of person who does not do well with fear, 257 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 1: you worry too much about what you lost. If you 258 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 1: had just dialed out and not paid attention, your stocks 259 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: are back to near record high prices already, and what 260 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: if the worst case scenario happened. What if you had 261 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 1: bought at the absolute top of the market this year, 262 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 1: right when the S and P five hundred and the 263 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: Dow were setting all time highs, you would have lost 264 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 1: at this point on paper, one and a half percent 265 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 1: of your total assets. Again, that is, if you bought 266 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:00,240 Speaker 1: at the absolute day that the all time when I 267 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: was set, you would have lost one and a half 268 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: percent of your assets. And if you just buy and hold, 269 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: I want to hammer this home because that is really 270 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: good financial advice. If you just buy and hold index 271 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 1: funds every ten years on average, your money is going 272 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 1: to double. Most people get themselves out of sorts by 273 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: panicking and selling at the bottom of markets and buying 274 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 1: at the top. Buy and hold is the ultimate strategy. 275 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: If you dividend, reinvest, if you constantly are buying, you're 276 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: going to do really, really well. I hope you guys 277 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: listen to us when everybody was panicking and we said 278 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 1: stay calm back over six thousand record highs very very 279 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: close at this point in time. And I want to 280 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: tell you all about our friends. As we mentioned that 281 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: we were traveling and going all over the place with 282 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: advertisers in recent history. We love everybody who is sponsoring 283 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: this show, and this company has done an amazing job 284 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: for so many people. Paradigm Press. We've seen other countries 285 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 1: develop sovereign wealth as a way of sharing their opportunities. 286 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: There are great people who believe our nation has an 287 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: asset that could be worth as much as one hundred 288 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: and fifty trillion dollars buried under American soil. Time will 289 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: tell whether it makes sense to hear more about Jim Rickards. 290 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 1: He's a former advisor to the White House in Federal Reserve. 291 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,479 Speaker 1: He says, if you're over fifty, this could be your 292 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:30,239 Speaker 1: best chance to build lasting wealth. To hear more of 293 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: what he thinks, go to birthright twenty twenty five dot com. 294 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: If he's right, it could really help people make a 295 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: lot birthright twenty twenty five dot com to get the 296 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 1: details free of charge, paid for by Paradigm Press. We 297 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,119 Speaker 1: are joined now by former Speaker of the House New Gingrich. 298 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: He has got a brand new book out, Trump's Triumph 299 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 1: America's Greatest Comeback. We'll get into the Elon thing in 300 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 1: a sec, but Speaker Ginger, I appreciate you coming on 301 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 1: with this. You've been on with this several times. You 302 00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 1: are a student of history. Is there any doubt that 303 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: Trump coming back to win the election is the greatest 304 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: American political comeback of all time? Can you even think 305 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: of a comparison in the historical record based on your knowledge? 306 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 2: No, both, because he was in office, lost office, got 307 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 2: back into office, which is tied only by Grover Cleveland 308 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 2: in eighteen ninety two, but even deeper, he had built 309 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 2: such a strong following that Trump defeated Biden and then 310 00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 2: pivoted and a couple months later defeated Harris. No other 311 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 2: candidate has defeated two major opponents in one year. And 312 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,360 Speaker 2: the very fact that he's still standing. This is part 313 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 2: of why I wrote Trump's Triumph, which I began writing 314 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 2: back in October because I was convinced Who's going to win? 315 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 2: You think about everything they threw at him now, since 316 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 2: he's walked down the elevator or the escalator in twenty fifteen, 317 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:14,320 Speaker 2: ten years pounding away at him, and he's still standing 318 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 2: and now he's once again president. So it's a remarkable achievement. 319 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: Is there anybody that you even think about historically outside 320 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,520 Speaker 1: of the United States? You mentioned Grover Cleveland because one 321 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: of the great things about history is one you can 322 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: learn about everybody that came before you, but you can 323 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: also try to extrapolate how people that we don' won't 324 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 1: know hundreds of years from now will look back. This 325 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,879 Speaker 1: is really a pretty incredible era. From the moment Trump 326 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:46,200 Speaker 1: came down the escalator, people are going to be grappling 327 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 1: with his legacy for the next several hundred years. 328 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 2: Oh, I think that's right. I think, particularly if he 329 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 2: can win the election next year and retain the Republican 330 00:20:58,320 --> 00:21:02,439 Speaker 2: control of the House, he will, I think, enact so 331 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:06,880 Speaker 2: much reform and change the old order so decisively that 332 00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 2: he will rival everybody except Washington and Lincoln as the greatest, 333 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,240 Speaker 2: one of the greatest change agents in American history. And 334 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 2: it's truly astonishing to watch him work, to realize how 335 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 2: many different things he's doing at the same time, and 336 00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 2: how determined he is to literally make America great again. 337 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 1: Trump is the most powerful person, I think it's fair 338 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 1: to say in the world. Elon Musk is the richest. Yesterday, 339 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,879 Speaker 1: Elon had basically what felt to me like a temper 340 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,440 Speaker 1: tantrum on Twitter. He seems to have dialed it back today. 341 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: I imagine you have met Elon at some point in time. 342 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: I know you know Trump. Well, what is your take 343 00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: over what happened yesterday, the relationship between the two and 344 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: where it goes from here. 345 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:56,840 Speaker 2: Oh, you have two very powerful personalities who are also 346 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: very powerful in real sources, and Trump is the most 347 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 2: powerful man in the world and Elon Musk is the richest. 348 00:22:05,720 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 2: So it's pretty interesting. I think Elon sort of had 349 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,439 Speaker 2: a temper tantrum and melt it down. When you do 350 00:22:13,560 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 2: forty tweets in one day, you are sort of undermining 351 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 2: yourself because it's hard for anyone to take you seriously 352 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 2: when you do that many. And I think he was 353 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:26,280 Speaker 2: just he was angry, upset, didn't know what to do, 354 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 2: and acted all out in public, which I don't think 355 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 2: in the long run was to Elon musk advantage because 356 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,200 Speaker 2: he's you know, he has a brilliant guy. What he's 357 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:40,360 Speaker 2: done with SpaceX for example, has single handedly put America 358 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 2: back in the lead in space. So he's a remarkable person. 359 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,919 Speaker 2: But at the same time, he's not the president. He 360 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 2: didn't have seventy seven million people vote for him. He's 361 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 2: not in a position to wield the kind of power 362 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 2: that the Constitution gives only to the president of ined States. 363 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: And I think somehow out of Marl Largo and then 364 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 2: hanging out at the White House, Elon forgot that he 365 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 2: was a supporter to the incumbent president. He wasn't an alternative. 366 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 1: You said, you think Trump's term in office can be 367 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: truly transformative if he's able to retain control of the House. 368 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 1: Republicans are in the midterms next year. What do you 369 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: think now about the squabble surrounding the so called Big 370 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: Beautiful Bill. Speaker Johnson got it through on the House side. Senate, 371 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 1: there are obstacles. What would your take be based on 372 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 1: what you have seen of this bill? What should happen? 373 00:23:37,400 --> 00:23:38,159 Speaker 1: What will happen? 374 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 2: Well, I think it should pass, and I think it 375 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,240 Speaker 2: will pass. It'll change form a little bit, and that's 376 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 2: ways supposed to it. Look, the founding fathers did not 377 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,120 Speaker 2: want to build a machine that you could make work 378 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 2: so easily that a dictator could make it work. So 379 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,919 Speaker 2: they designed a machine that is so hard that we 380 00:23:56,960 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 2: can barely get it to work voluntarily, and they would 381 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 2: be very happy of that. They say, yeah, the price 382 00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:05,600 Speaker 2: of freedom is that you disperse power, So you got 383 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 2: to get a lot of people to sign off. Well, 384 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 2: that's frustrating, it's difficult. Mike Johnson has done a great 385 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 2: job as Speaker of the House, and frankly, he is 386 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 2: a senator's fun. The majority of the Senate is doing 387 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,199 Speaker 2: a terrific job, and I think that between them, they 388 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 2: seem to have a very good understanding. The Senate will 389 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 2: change the bill some some of the will actually be 390 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 2: an improvement, and it has to be done carefully, and 391 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: if they do it just right, I think they'll bring 392 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 2: the bill straight from the Senate without a conference and 393 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:46,479 Speaker 2: end up having I would guess a vote in the 394 00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:49,240 Speaker 2: House and it'll be close. But my hunch is that 395 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 2: that will end. This is the heart of the Trump project. 396 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:57,600 Speaker 2: He has to have this bill for the economy to boom, 397 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 2: and I think if they get this bill through by 398 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:02,840 Speaker 2: next June or July, will be in what will be 399 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 2: called the Trump boom, and we'll be creating jobs at 400 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 2: an unbelievable rate and take home pay will be going 401 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 2: up and affordability will be increasing and people are going 402 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 2: to think, you know, this was worth the effort. 403 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 1: How durable is Trump is in post Trump? 404 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: Well, I think one of the reasons he picked JD. 405 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 2: Vance to be his vice president. Vance is a year 406 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 2: younger than Nixon was when Eisenhower picked him, and I 407 00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 2: think one of the reasons he did it is he 408 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 2: wanted somebody who could carry on the basic core messages 409 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: and he thought that JD sort of had that in 410 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: his head. So I think guys are pretty good. I mean, 411 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 2: one of the points of my book Trump's Triumph, the Greatest, 412 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 2: the American People's greatest comeback, is that he really had 413 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:55,359 Speaker 2: a message, a machine, a movement, and a messenger come together. 414 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,879 Speaker 2: That going all the way back to gold Water in 415 00:25:57,920 --> 00:26:01,280 Speaker 2: sixty four, there's been a gradual that he increase in 416 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 2: the desire to replace the Washington establishment, and that Trump 417 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 2: came along and really focused and gave voice to the movement. 418 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 2: And I think that's now real. I think you're not 419 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 2: going to see a reversion to a traditional Republican winning 420 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 2: the presidency in twenty twenty eight. It's going to be 421 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 2: somebody who shares Trump's values, and the most likely person, 422 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:27,040 Speaker 2: frankly JD. Events. 423 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 1: For people who are interested in reading the book, what 424 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: motivated you? You said you thought Trump was going to win, 425 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,280 Speaker 1: but you're a history guy too. Were you partly writing 426 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 1: this book to contextualize the history in real time? What 427 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 1: motivated You've written a lot over the years. 428 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 2: Well, so much has been going on. I wanted to 429 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,720 Speaker 2: put it all in historic context. And the book both 430 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 2: takes you back to how Trump got here, but it 431 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 2: also projects forward where I think it's going to go. 432 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:57,480 Speaker 2: And I have to say, even though we began writing 433 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,360 Speaker 2: in October and finished in early February, when we went 434 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 2: back and reviewed the book just before its publication, the 435 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 2: only two things we missed were the Gulf of America 436 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 2: and the desire to annex Canada and Greenmam. Other than that, 437 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 2: the book really did a pretty good job of capturing 438 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 2: where the MAGA movement was going and where Trump was going. 439 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 1: Speaker New Gingrits. We appreciate the time, have a good weekend. 440 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:25,880 Speaker 1: The book Trump's Triumph, America's greatest comeback, and we hope 441 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,800 Speaker 1: you're having a lot of fun on the road promoting it. 442 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: And thanks for time today. Thank you, Take care, Speaker 443 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:36,399 Speaker 1: New Gingrits. James James Carey, that's a very big difference. 444 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,360 Speaker 1: Joined the United States Marine Corps after being inspired by 445 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: his grandfather who also served our nation. I also want 446 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 1: to mention right off the top, I know I mentioned 447 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,439 Speaker 1: it earlier. I don't think I mentioned this hour to 448 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,640 Speaker 1: eighty first anniversary of D Day, and I hope you'll 449 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,280 Speaker 1: take a little bit of time, as I know so 450 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: many people at Tunnel to Towers will, I hope you'll 451 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: take a little bit of time to think about the 452 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:03,440 Speaker 1: legacy of all the braver that we saw on June sixth, 453 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 1: nineteen forty four, as all of those men stepped out 454 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: into the face of the Nazi guns all over Normandy 455 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,479 Speaker 1: eighty one years ago. Today, I guarantee you Frank Siller, 456 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,560 Speaker 1: who started Tunnel to Towers, is thinking about it. I 457 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: know him well. I guarantee you he's spending part of 458 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: his day thinking about the sacrifices those guys made and 459 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:26,359 Speaker 1: about people like James Carey, who joined the United States 460 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: Marine Corps after being inspired by his grandfather, who also 461 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 1: served our nation. James loved being a marine, but his 462 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:36,440 Speaker 1: life would change forever. During a training exercise, he lost 463 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: consciousness nearly drowned. The incident resulted in a brain injury 464 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 1: that left him blind and unable to use his body, 465 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: susceptible to memory loss, and it even brought on dementia. 466 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,680 Speaker 1: The Tunnel the Towers Foundation built James especially adapted smart 467 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,600 Speaker 1: home to enable him to live more independently. Thanks to 468 00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: the generosity of friends like you, the lives of America's 469 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:59,600 Speaker 1: heroes and their families are being improved. James Carey and 470 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: so much many others offer service members, first responders, so 471 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,320 Speaker 1: many people offering the ultimate sacrifice have paid a high 472 00:29:07,320 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: price to keep keep our country and our community safe. 473 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 1: Through Tunnel to the Towers, friends like you have said thank you, 474 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: not only through words, but also through actions.

That's the horse CD if he were 509 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 1: a horse. 510 00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,560 Speaker 3: Make people like that very often. 511 00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: If Trump wore a horse, he would be Secretariat. That 512 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: is a heck of an analogy. And if you watch, 513 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: by the way, some of those old clips Secretariat, the 514 00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: numbers that Secretariat posted would still be off the charts today. 515 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 1: Every athlete, it seems like, has gone gotten bigger, stronger, 516 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: and faster except for horses, none of which can reach 517 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 1: what Secretariat did. And I said, oh, how does my 518 00:31:32,840 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 1: chart look? And so you got I was born April sixth, Nashville, Tennessee, 519 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy nine. You got all that info. I've never 520 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 1: had my chart read. What should I know? Are people 521 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: in trouble who are listening? What should we know? 522 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 3: I empty, Well, I didn't look at peep peck who 523 00:31:48,680 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 3: were listening. That would be impossible. But I just brought 524 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,760 Speaker 3: up to chart at the show from its beginning, for 525 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:58,400 Speaker 3: you know, at twelve oh five pm on the twenty 526 00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 3: first of Jane twenty one, and it doesn't look like 527 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 3: it's going anywhere. It looks pretty solid. It should have 528 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:12,720 Speaker 3: an emphasis on investigative stuff and going deep. And there 529 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 3: may be times when there's contention. People you know, call up, 530 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 3: people call up and are very you know, there's there's 531 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 3: a lot of controversy. But you've got the Sun and 532 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 3: Mercury up at the Medhaven with the North Note in 533 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,720 Speaker 3: the ninth house next to the Medhaven. You couldn't do 534 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,640 Speaker 3: better than that. And you've got great people working on 535 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 3: it with Jupiter around the sixth house, and it's a 536 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 3: serious show. We who don't sat in the sixth rush 537 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 3: Limbaugh with the Capricorn which also which also Bucket, and 538 00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:51,720 Speaker 3: so they both are in harmony with your natal ascendant 539 00:32:52,440 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 3: and ruslim Bod's venus was in Pisces near your mercury. 540 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 3: So it was kind of a good fit for everybody. 541 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,240 Speaker 3: Now as far as you go. 542 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 1: Personally, Hello, yeah, yeah, no, I'm on baited breath here 543 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:17,000 Speaker 1: because all that was great. Yeah, well I was just 544 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 1: I was getting nervous because all that stuff sounds amazing. 545 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: And then you know a lot of times people are like, 546 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: you know, I really like your personality, but you know, 547 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 1: usually like all the good news, and then there's a 548 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 1: butt thrown in there, and then things go a bit 549 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 1: of skew. Am I in trouble based on the charts? 550 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 1: Or am I looking good? What should I know? 551 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 3: Well, you're trying to perfectly reflects you and you must 552 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 3: have done some good stuff on the passway. The only 553 00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:44,719 Speaker 3: thing that worries me. You're doing exactly what you should do. 554 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 3: You were born to be a lawyer. You were born 555 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 3: to be in the radio. You were boring to go 556 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 3: through a transition in your professional and broadcasting life with 557 00:33:55,720 --> 00:33:58,520 Speaker 3: that pluto in the ninth House, and you've got a 558 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 3: lot of strength there. You're never going to have to 559 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 3: worry about money. You sometimes can get very sharp verbally, 560 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:12,360 Speaker 3: which you're supposed to. And there was some issue about 561 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 3: whether to practice law or not. And I suspect also 562 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 3: that you took your time deciding on to get married, 563 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,160 Speaker 3: but when you did, you picked It looks like you 564 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 3: made a really good choice to the Southern House of marriage, 565 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 3: public relations, public image relations, and legal matters being a lawyer. 566 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:39,120 Speaker 3: Not only did you need to do that, but it's 567 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,919 Speaker 3: really good for you. You've got moments you put are there. 568 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 3: You do some surprising things sometimes publicly, I think, did 569 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 3: you do something? Was there something like was a fast 570 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 3: to protest something? In sports? 571 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, I hate putting because I was upset because my 572 00:34:56,880 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: team wasn't wasn't available. Okay, all this is pretty good. Uh, 573 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:05,240 Speaker 1: but what do I need to be concerned about? 574 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 3: Well, you've got the same problem as Trump in the 575 00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:13,879 Speaker 3: second house, of which is not only it's not it's 576 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,759 Speaker 3: not a money problem, although you'd like to be very 577 00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 3: concerned about finances for the sake of your family, and 578 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:26,759 Speaker 3: I think that you may, if you don't yet, would 579 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 3: be well advised to have involvement with real estate. But 580 00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:34,400 Speaker 3: you've got the tendency to each stuff that is not 581 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 3: good for you. 582 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: That is all pretty accurate. 583 00:35:39,960 --> 00:35:45,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and with enough tune up in the eleventh house. 584 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,480 Speaker 3: The eleven house is a lot of things. You're very idealistic, 585 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 3: and you have friends who are creative and sensitive and 586 00:35:56,200 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 3: musical and all that good stuff there, it's probably stuff. 587 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 3: Some of your friends are probably great private people, and 588 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:07,560 Speaker 3: you don't know everything about them. But where that next 589 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 3: screen is problematic. It just said it's going that has 590 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 3: to be eleven houses blood pressure, And it's on the 591 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 3: same access to the fifth house. 592 00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 1: Of a heart, so I need to be on top 593 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:23,879 Speaker 1: of my blood pressure and my heart. Otherwise, there we go. 594 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 1: Have great weekends. I love all of you.
