Thursday edition of Clay and 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: Buck kicks off right now. A lot of stories to 4 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:15,720 Speaker 1: get to with you here. Dave Portnoy, also known as 5 00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:22,599 Speaker 1: stool Presidente, giving a lesson to the Washington Post in well, 6 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:24,280 Speaker 1: a lesson I guess for all of us, and how 7 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: the Washington Post does the ambush partisan journalism that now 8 00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:32,680 Speaker 1: defines that and some of the other major newspapers out there. 9 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 1: We show discussed that, and we've also got some crime 10 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:45,080 Speaker 1: stories to discuss with you. A carjacking in Minneapolis broad daylight. 11 00:00:45,240 --> 00:00:48,480 Speaker 1: The whole city is furious. I mean, people are showing 12 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: up at town hall meetings and they're saying, what the 13 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: heck is going on here? We remember BLM two point 14 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: zero launched in Minneapolis. What's happened in that city since then? 15 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: That's certainly worth us having a converse about. But the 16 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 1: biggest thing on our minds right now is the absolute mayhem, 17 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: the mess that is unfolding right now and has been 18 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: for weeks at the US Mexico border. The latest numbers 19 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: on this indicate that you've got ten thousand people ten 20 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 1: thousand people who have been who have been encountered. Now 21 00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: these are illegal aliens. These are people who enter the 22 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: United States illegally. In fact, the number of people crossing 23 00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: illegally is so high that they've had to shut down 24 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: one of the lawful ports of entry to redistribute resources 25 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: to other places on the border. I mean, if you 26 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: just do clay, when you look at a cursory overview here, 27 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: it's obvious that this is a complete emergency and a 28 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: mess when you look at the headline, and Biden has 29 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: sent eight hundred eight hundred troops to help at Eagle Pass, Texas. 30 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,079 Speaker 1: Now Eagle Pass, Texas not a big not a big town, 31 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: not a big city really, and it's completely inundated. This 32 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: has become the place where they're having the most crossings. 33 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 1: It does move around on the border. Ten thousand migrants 34 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: in the last twenty four hours. This is getting to 35 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: the all time record high that they saw in May 36 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,399 Speaker 1: before the end of Title forty two. And we can play, 37 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: we can get into what's going on in the cities. 38 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: We talk about New York and the migrant problem. Chicago's 39 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 1: now got a major migrant problem too. But I just 40 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: think every Republican in the country who has a platform 41 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: should be making to case the American people. The border 42 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: is the most lawless, wide open, and chaotic it really 43 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: has ever been. I mean, it's certainly up along the 44 00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: worst moments that we've seen. And it's not just all 45 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,839 Speaker 1: the illegal crossing and all the burden on the taxpayer. 46 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 1: It's the human trafficking, it's the fentanyl trafficking, the cartel 47 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: En Richmond. This is a disaster and it is a 48 00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: product of Joe Biden administration decision making that they're still 49 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 1: sticking by. 50 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, and yesterday I said buck and I would reiterate 51 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 2: it again. Republicans should take the third presidential debate to 52 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: the border. They should go to Eagle Pass, they should 53 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:31,359 Speaker 2: construct an outdoor stage, and they should force the media 54 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: that covers the presidential debates to go with them and 55 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: cover this situation. 56 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: This is a no. 57 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 2: Brainer to me. I think it's right now, it's scheduled 58 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 2: in Miami. This should happen second part of this. And 59 00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: I know a lot of Greg Abbott's people listen to 60 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 2: this show, and we had Greg Abbott, the Governor of Texas, 61 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 2: on a lot and I think he's been very good 62 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 2: on pointing out and dealing with what is a I 63 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,560 Speaker 2: think it's fair to say international catastrop which is the 64 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: failure to protect our southern border. I would say this, 65 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: greg Abbott starts sending illegals to every swing Midwestern state 66 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 2: almost exclusively. I want him going into Pennsylvania. I want 67 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 2: him going into Michigan. I want him going into Wisconsin. 68 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:26,040 Speaker 2: I want him going into Minnesota. I want all of 69 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,039 Speaker 2: those states that are theoretically going to decide the twenty 70 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 2: twenty four presidential election to have to deal with what 71 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:39,040 Speaker 2: Joe Biden's illegal immigrant crisis is creating. Because right now 72 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: a lot of people out there in blue states are 73 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 2: still somewhat protected from the consequences of Joe Biden's border policy. 74 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 2: There's no way, let's just put it this way, Buck, 75 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: if Texas were Pennsylvania and it were a huge swing state. 76 00:04:57,880 --> 00:04:59,240 Speaker 1: There's no way this would be going on. 77 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:04,159 Speaker 2: There is z from a pure political perspective, because this 78 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 2: issue alone would deliver Pennsylvania to Republicans. And I want 79 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 2: those swing states, those big ten states. And I apologize 80 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: to everybody listening to us right now in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Minnesota, 81 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 2: and Wisconsin. But your swing voters there, the people that 82 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: are going to decide this election in twenty twenty four. 83 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: They should have to see the consequences of Joe Biden's 84 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: border policies and understand that they are voting for this 85 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 2: because a lot of people don't see the consequences and 86 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: as a result, they just don't realize what's going on 87 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: with this illegal immigration disaster. 88 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: Now. 89 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 2: I also hope Arizonans that are listening to us right now, 90 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 2: Kerry Lake is going to announce soon you are going 91 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 2: to have an incredibly competitive three way probably Senate race, 92 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,479 Speaker 2: but also it's going to be incredibly competitive in twenty 93 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 2: twenty four. I think we're number one in Phoenix. If 94 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 2: you are listening to us right now in Arizona. Regardless 95 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 2: of who wins the Republican nomination in twenty twenty four, 96 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 2: whether you're a Trump person and DESANTUS person and Nikki 97 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: Haley of Ake Ramaslom, whoever you're voting for, more power 98 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 2: to you if you show up and vote not down 99 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 2: ballot straight Republican, you and my opinion, are a moron 100 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 2: who is absolutely endorsing this chaos at the border. All right, 101 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 2: I'm just I'm done with you split ticket voters, you 102 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 2: need to recognize that Joe Biden is destroying the fabric 103 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: of this country and you need to suck it up. 104 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 1: Even if it ends up Trump and you. 105 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 2: Don't like Trump because you don't like his mean tweets 106 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,919 Speaker 2: and whatever, suck it up, show up. It's time to 107 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 2: send a message. I'm fired up about this ten thousand 108 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: buck that we know of, and it's only getting worse. 109 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,359 Speaker 2: And we just said to five hundred thousand Venezuelans you 110 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 2: can get jobs now. There's gonna be another million Venezuelans 111 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 2: who come in now because the incidentive of structure is 112 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 2: why wouldn't you? 113 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,719 Speaker 1: This is the this is whateveryone needs to understand. It's 114 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: not oh, it's ten thousand the last twenty four hours, 115 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: and this is going to stop anytime soon. There's nothing 116 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: that they're doing to stop this. This is going to continue. 117 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: The word is out globally that you can come into 118 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 1: America and you will likely be able to stay in 119 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 1: America without even going through the immigration system, without even 120 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: really a cursory check. How to even know who these 121 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: people are? And Clay, you know, we talk about what's 122 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 1: going on in New York and the massive multi billion 123 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: dollar budget issue there. But we also have to look 124 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 1: at what's going on in Chicago, and because of the migrants, 125 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 1: Chicago has got some problems. Now I'm trying to pull 126 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,239 Speaker 1: up the number. Here you go twenty six A twenty 127 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: six million dollar contract with a security firm to build 128 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: migrant camps. That's what they're calling it. Here Chicago may 129 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 1: Or Brandon Johnson quietly signing this twenty six million dollar 130 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 1: contract to build migrant camps. Now, I want to understand something. 131 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: This is almost thirty million dollars to build refuge camps 132 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: in Chicago. This is what a refugee camp is. When 133 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: you don't when you're somebody that is claiming that you 134 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 1: had to leave your country because of threat to your 135 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: person and persecution, and you are staying in a place 136 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: where the host government is giving you food, housing, healthcare, 137 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: et cetera. That's a refugee camp. So you're talking about 138 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: now a refugee camp being set up in Chicago. They're 139 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: thinking this will cost and all these government estimates play 140 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 1: are always low, right, The New York estimates three billionaire, 141 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:43,880 Speaker 1: it's twelve billion over three or four years. It's going 142 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 1: to be more than that. Of course it's going to 143 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: be more that. What all of a sudden, you think 144 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 1: the government's going to become nimble and cost effective. That's absurd. 145 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 1: Chicago says it's going to get three hundred and two 146 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: it's going to cost three hundred and two million dollars 147 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 1: by the end of the year. And that's you know, 148 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: that's a midway Western city that's a quarter of the 149 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 1: size of New York. This is going to happen in 150 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: other places too, you know. To sending them to Swing States, 151 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,439 Speaker 1: I like that idea. The issue is that this is 152 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: where the illegals want to go. I want to go 153 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,120 Speaker 1: to major cities, right, So you offer them a free 154 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 1: ride and they're like, yeah, great, sign me up. You 155 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: know that's what I mean. 156 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 2: Give them, give them a free ride to to to Philadelphia. 157 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know that anybody wants to. I 158 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: don't know if they'll take it, but you can offer it. Yeah, 159 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: I mean, it's not too hard to get from Philadelphia 160 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 2: to d C. 161 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: Or to h or to New York City. 162 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 2: I want the Swinging States to have to bear the 163 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 2: brunt of Joe Biden's decisions and the fact that every 164 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:40,319 Speaker 2: media per. 165 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,479 Speaker 1: Think about this. Think about this, Think about. 166 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 2: How much time our national media has spent berating politicians 167 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: for not supporting Ukraine enough. Right for years now, they 168 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 2: have been going around saying, how dare you not want 169 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 2: to give one hundred billion dollars to U? Do you 170 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: not care about Ukrainian sovereignty? Do you not care about 171 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: Russian actions there? Why is it the same media talking 172 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: about our border? I think you crystallized it a couple 173 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 2: of years ago when this all started, but it's gotten 174 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: so much worse. 175 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden cares far more. 176 00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: About Ukraine's border sovereignty than he does in the United States, 177 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 2: and that is indefensible. And of all the things that 178 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 2: Joe Biden is doing that are a disaster, on crime, 179 00:10:25,800 --> 00:10:31,440 Speaker 2: on inflation. Which did you see that New York Times 180 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 2: writer who was at a Newark airport, I think, and 181 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 2: shared a picture of his hamburger and said this cost 182 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 2: seventy five dollars or something? 183 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 1: Did you see that tweet? Yeah? Yeah, it but and 184 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: it's ridiculous. 185 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,559 Speaker 2: But everybody out there listening to me right now, I 186 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 2: guarantee you you have bought something and said how in 187 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 2: the world did this cost? What? 188 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: It cost. 189 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 2: It's because Joe Biden's economy has been such a disaster 190 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: that inflation is baked in now, so he's failed everywhere 191 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 2: the boat. 192 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 1: Try to buy a house, everybody that's you know, you 193 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: want to talk about feeling the pain. You go buy 194 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 1: You know, I know what this is like, I just 195 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: bought a house. You go buy a house right now. 196 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: You're getting half the house because of the rates that 197 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: you could have afforded a couple of years ago. Inflation hurts, 198 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,840 Speaker 1: Oh and Buck. There are millions of people listening to 199 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:22,760 Speaker 1: us right now. I legitimately believe this who have a 200 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 1: house that they don't want to be in, but they've 201 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,160 Speaker 1: got a two and a half or three percent interest rate, 202 00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: and so they're staying there. You might have added a 203 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: new kid, you might have you might have had a 204 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: family member move in with you or whatever. 205 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 2: So you're cramped in that house and you're ready to move. 206 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:37,840 Speaker 2: Maybe you want a new school district because your kids 207 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: have gotten old enough and you want to be in 208 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,320 Speaker 2: a better local school district. 209 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: But you look at it and you. 210 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,439 Speaker 2: Just run the math and you say, I mean, if 211 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,200 Speaker 2: we sell, we're going to be going from a two 212 00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:49,840 Speaker 2: and a half percent mortgage rate to a seven percent 213 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: mortgage rate. And there's always, by the way, I bet 214 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: there's a lot of you fighting about this too, because inevitably, 215 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 2: it feels like to me, every married couple, one of 216 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: them just doesn't understand how mortgage rates work, right, So 217 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 2: the person who does understand the mortgage rates is like, no, 218 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 2: let me explain. We have a two and a half 219 00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:12,319 Speaker 2: percent mortgage on our you know, fifteen or our thirty 220 00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 2: year mortgage, and this. 221 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: Is what this costs. 222 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: And if we go to seven percent, and it's like 223 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,520 Speaker 2: some people just I guarantee you right now that one 224 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: of you is nodding and the other one is like 225 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 2: gonna be angry about you. She's gonna be talking about it, 226 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 2: or he's gonna be talking about it. Can be the man, 227 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 2: can be the woman. What of every two people in 228 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 2: every marriage, it feels like to me doesn't understand the 229 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 2: basic concepts of mortgage and so you end up fighting 230 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: about what you can and can't afford.

He is a New York 253 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 1: City Council minority leader. Guy knows New York as well 254 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: as I do, which is saying a lot, probably a 255 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: little bit better actually, which is even crazier. How are you, buddy, play? 256 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 3: How you doing Buck? How you doing great to be 257 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 3: back on the show? Yeah? 258 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: Man, we're good, We're good. So first off, you know, 259 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: there were some protests that happened in in Staten Island 260 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: with regard to the migrants. Can you just give us 261 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: a broader sense of how many of these refugee centers 262 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 1: are there? How? You know, how is this just turning 263 00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: into a bigger and bigger problem for the city, like 264 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,160 Speaker 1: what's going on with the migrant crisis there? 265 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 3: Well, as of today, we have two hundred and eight 266 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 3: shelters between hotels that have been leased, nursing homes like 267 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 3: the one which caused this protest, and of course the 268 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 3: tensetives that are being erected at various government properties around 269 00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 3: the city. And what you're seeing is people getting really frustrated, right, 270 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, fuck, you have a house, you 271 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 3: live somewhere, right, I mean imagine you saved up your 272 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 3: life savings, put it on a down payment on a 273 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 3: house and then basically committed that for the rest of 274 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 3: your working life you're going to pay a significant portion 275 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 3: of your income to paying the rest of that house. 276 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 3: And then the city comes along and just smack, puts 277 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 3: a homeless shelter right next to your house where there 278 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 3: once was a school, or there once was a park, 279 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:15,960 Speaker 3: in some cases, where there once was a nursing home 280 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 3: for seniors. So people are rightfully, incredibly, incredibly angry at 281 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 3: the situation, and it's kind of festering into some angry protests. 282 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 2: Are you starting to see protests, Joe, from people that 283 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 2: you never thought would be protesting Democrat policies? Because one 284 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 2: of the things that we've seen that's most intriguing, and 285 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 2: we've shared some of the interviews that have been taking place, 286 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 2: is you got long time Democratic voters, now black voters, 287 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 2: Hispanic voters, Asian voters who for a long time have 288 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: just been, you know, vote blue, vote blue, and they're 289 00:15:46,760 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 2: suddenly looking around saying, we've been voting blue for a 290 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 2: long time and things are going really really bad. Have 291 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: you seen it like this before? How would you assess 292 00:15:56,760 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 2: it in terms of the traditional Democrat Corps votes suddenly 293 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 2: turning on the Democrat policies. 294 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:04,280 Speaker 3: Well, I think it's interesting that you brought up sort 295 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 3: of the diversity in opposition. So we just had a 296 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,560 Speaker 3: poll come out a couple of weeks ago from Siana 297 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,600 Speaker 3: College which indicated that overall, eighty two percent of New 298 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 3: Yorkers think this is a crisis. The biggest ethnic majority 299 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 3: of people who said we have to close the border 300 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 3: and stop the migrants from coming to New York City 301 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:26,360 Speaker 3: were actually African American respondents to this poll, which is interesting, right, 302 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 3: but it plays into exactly what I said before. You 303 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 3: have African American people work their whole life flap down 304 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 3: and down payment. Now there's multiple homeless shelters in their 305 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,200 Speaker 3: neighborhood and they're just as effected as anybody else. This 306 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 3: has been unfortunately, right. I don't root for the destruction 307 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,560 Speaker 3: of New York City to gain the votes, but this 308 00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 3: has been great for the Republican Party in the city, 309 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,320 Speaker 3: and we've seen us picking up seats at the city 310 00:16:50,320 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: council level of the state legislatives level, just as more 311 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 3: and more New Yorkers of all stripes and ethnicities have 312 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 3: grown more frustrated in the failure of Democratic control of 313 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 3: the way local, state, and federal level. 314 00:17:02,200 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 1: What does what does the billions of dollars Joe, that 315 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,119 Speaker 1: are a part of this budget or you know that 316 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: are going to cut into the budget, what does it 317 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 1: mean for city services? Just for the the overall economic 318 00:17:15,880 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 1: future of New York if this reaches let's say, the 319 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,480 Speaker 1: twelve billion dollars that they've said it will over the 320 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 1: next few years, to just deal with the mirants. 321 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,400 Speaker 3: Well, to take a number like the projection for next 322 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 3: fiscal year six billion dollars, that is the same size 323 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 3: as the entire budget of Phoenix, Arizona. So the taxpayers 324 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 3: of America's largest city could actually just pay for every 325 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 3: single service the city that the country's fifth largest city 326 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 3: actually provides, police, fire, sanitation, cutting the grass in the parks, 327 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: inspecting buildings, to in all the things that cities rightfully 328 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 3: have to do. We're paying the same amount on as 329 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 3: it stands, sixty two thousand migrants in our shelter every night. 330 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 3: By the way, the other you know, twenty thousand people 331 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 3: that have sort of transitioned out of the shelter system, 332 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 3: they still are factored into this cost even though we're 333 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 3: not housing them, because we are still providing healthcare at 334 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 3: some level. We are still providing education if they have children. 335 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 3: So this is a cost that will continue to grow, 336 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,359 Speaker 3: whether our shelter system continues to expand or not. 337 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 2: So, Joe, one of the crazy things is, as all 338 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 2: of this is going on, Buck mentions the twelve billion, 339 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 2: we were just discussing the large degree of racial diversity 340 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 2: eighty two percent age, you said, of people who agree 341 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,920 Speaker 2: that this is wrong, majorities of all different sorts of backgrounds. 342 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 2: I see that the New York City Council is debating 343 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 2: whether George Washington and Christopher Columbus statues should still exist. 344 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,000 Speaker 1: It feels so tone. 345 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,280 Speaker 2: Deaf, like back when San Francisco was trying to rename 346 00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 2: their schools while all the schools were still shut down. 347 00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 2: Of all the things New York City has to be 348 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 2: worried about, George Washington and Columbus statues seem very far 349 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 2: down on the list. 350 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 1: How would you assess this? Do you think most people 351 00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 1: agree it's so stupid? 352 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 3: I mean, this is like the return of the pumpkin latte, 353 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 3: Like every nova every fall or so, New York City 354 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 3: goes through this. We have to take the Columbus statue 355 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 3: down charade. It doesn't amount to anything, but it goes 356 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 3: to show you where the progressive mindset is. We actually 357 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,160 Speaker 3: have a statue commission at one point to take down 358 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 3: some of these statues, and the one that everyone agreed 359 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 3: on was this guy named Jay Mary and Simms who 360 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 3: used to do horrendous experiments on African American slaves. Like, okay, great, 361 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:29,280 Speaker 3: take take that guy down. But we're talking about some 362 00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,120 Speaker 3: of the most quintessential Americans, the people who have provided 363 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 3: us with the most free country in the history of mankind. 364 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 3: These are not people to be trivialized or even denounced. 365 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 3: These are people to be celebrated. And yet this is 366 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,520 Speaker 3: what the progressive mindset just leads us to, where we 367 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,920 Speaker 3: have to erase part of our cultural history. 368 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 1: Essentially speaking of Joe Barelli of the New York City Council, 369 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,399 Speaker 1: and what is it about that I always feel like 370 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: the Columbus statue Joe is one that you know, the 371 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: the Washington and Jefferson Peter Stuyvesant got thrown into the 372 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 1: mix this year, so you know, some folks got to 373 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: brush up a little bit on early New York City 374 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: or you know, early New Amsterdam history. He'd be like, wait, 375 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 1: what did Peter Stuyvesant doing exactly? But the Columbus statue, Look, 376 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 1: where does that come from? And there's a lot of 377 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 1: Italian Americans in New York who they're fiery about keeping 378 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: that Columbus statue in place. 379 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,160 Speaker 3: Well, Columbus has been a symbol of the Italian American 380 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:31,200 Speaker 3: community most Italian many Italian clubs are called Columbia associations 381 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 3: in honor of the explorer. So it is one of 382 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:39,919 Speaker 3: these personal affronts to Italian American culture to sort of 383 00:20:39,960 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 3: denounce this person who was acting as a character of 384 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 3: his own era and not someone we can, you know, 385 00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:49,199 Speaker 3: obviously go back four hundred years and judge according to 386 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:53,160 Speaker 3: our own standards. But it's amazing though that the flaws 387 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 3: of historical figures only impact white people in Americans today. 388 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 3: And basically we roots in the city council name streets 389 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 3: and commemorate things after horrible people. They just don't happen 390 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 3: to be the white people. We renamed the street after 391 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 3: a man named Jean Jacques Dessaline, who was one of 392 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 3: the founding fathers of Haiti, who actually massacred all the 393 00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 3: French and German colonizers that were essentially the slaveholders of Haiti. 394 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 3: I supported that. I don't care. I'm not here to 395 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 3: tell Haitians who they should look up to or who 396 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 3: they shouldn't look up to. But I just want that 397 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 3: same courtesy to be extended to Italian Americans. And in 398 00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:33,720 Speaker 3: this case we happened to like. 399 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 2: Columbus Joe, what letter grade would you give Eric Adams 400 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: at this point in his tenure as mayor? 401 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,440 Speaker 3: So you have to always compare to the last guy, right, 402 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,439 Speaker 3: So Bill de Culasio was ideologically awful. I mean, he 403 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 3: woke up and if he won on some of his 404 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 3: policy goals, the city would be worse off. So I 405 00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 3: give Adams a D or a C because I think 406 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 3: it is his optimism for the city and his interest 407 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 3: in returning business and growing the the city's commerce and 408 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 3: bringing back jobs. I think those are the right direction. 409 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:08,639 Speaker 3: I just think he is clearly an imperfect messenger and 410 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 3: an imperfect operator, because he really should be on the 411 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,840 Speaker 3: other side of this migrant issue by now. It was 412 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 3: a cute experiment at first, when it was going to 413 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 3: be five thousand people or ten thousand people. It was 414 00:22:19,440 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 3: a great way for him to virtue signal and be 415 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 3: you know, part of the Democratic national team, We're going 416 00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 3: to care for the migrants. Now it's really really hurting us. 417 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 3: And he has to feel personally angry that the party 418 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 3: has left him out to dry, and so I hope 419 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 3: he swings back harder and goes stronger against Joe Biden 420 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 3: and sort of the Democrats and the Senate at this point, 421 00:22:39,480 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 3: who haven't done any sort of water building. The House 422 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 3: GFP passed HR two back in May. Senate has done 423 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: nothing with our own home. 424 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: Senator Chuck Schumer, what is the one most important thing 425 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: other than the migrant situation, we'll put that aside. What's 426 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 1: the most important thing that New York City could do 427 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 1: in your mind to get on the right track to 428 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 1: being the city that you know, I remember from when 429 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: I was in high school and college was just in 430 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,480 Speaker 1: an absolute golden age. 431 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 3: Should it should do everything we can to get commercial 432 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 3: vacancy down. But how you do that is sort of 433 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 3: the collective approach to making the city better. So the 434 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 3: need is to get people in corporate offices that pay 435 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 3: for a big chunk of our tax revenue. The method 436 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 3: and the tactics to that is restoring crime levels to 437 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 3: what they used to be making sure schools are safe, 438 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,119 Speaker 3: of making sure that the streets don't look like a 439 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 3: third world country, maybe not, you know, charging motorists now 440 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,399 Speaker 3: with congestion pricing twenty three dollars just to go to 441 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 3: work every day. So those are the kind of things 442 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 3: that collectively would allow our city's commercial real estate market 443 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 3: to grow to the level it was, and thus we 444 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 3: could have the revenue that we used to have, which 445 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 3: even though even though we spend more money than most cities, 446 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 3: we actually got a pretty good bang for our buck, 447 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 3: I would say. Throughout the Bloomberg administration as an example, 448 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 3: New York City really was reaching its stride in the 449 00:23:57,840 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 3: late two thousands. 450 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 1: Joe Burrell, Hey, everybody, Joe, don't you have a history 451 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: book on Staten Island for anyone who's interested. 452 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 3: No, buck, I got two. You can buy him on Amazon. 453 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:10,959 Speaker 3: The colonial period, we cover Peter Seyvesant and all that 454 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,199 Speaker 3: fun stuff, and then we get a book on Staten 455 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 3: Island in the nineteenth century. 456 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: Joe Burrell, everybody, Joe, thank you so much. 457 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:19,159 Speaker 3: Thank you.

The Democrat corporate media wants you 477 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: to think that they speak truth to power, that their 478 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: job is journalism, and that they're hoping to inform you 479 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,959 Speaker 1: without fear or favor, YadA YadA. At seat set. We 480 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: all know that's not the case, and in recent years 481 00:25:51,080 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: it has become even more clear that that is not 482 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: the case, that that is not reality, that is not 483 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:03,199 Speaker 1: what is going on. And there are some instances of 484 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: it where you really get to see a little bit 485 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 1: of how the journal sausage is made. And we have 486 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: to tip our hat here to mister Dave Portnoy, who, 487 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:18,520 Speaker 1: like Clay, is a sportsworld man, comes from the world 488 00:26:18,600 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: of sports and is the founder of Barstool Sports.

So there is no update other than what 498 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 2: we're about to play for you, except that they canceled 499 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: their interview and This is I think so instructive. If 500 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 2: you're a kid out there and you're wondering, like you 501 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 2: said it, how the sausage gets made, how does the 502 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: story come to be written? 503 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,399 Speaker 1: This is kind of taking you into the weeds a 504 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: little bit. And one of the things that I've seen before, 505 00:27:08,560 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: for example, is you know a journalist will reach out 506 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 1: to someone who's a target because of their ideology. Let's 507 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: understand this. You are targeted now for ideological reasons by 508 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: these journals, and you'll have somebody who says, oh, you know, 509 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: they'll put something out that says, well, we didn't get 510 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,719 Speaker 1: a comment from you, and the person will actually call 511 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:32,959 Speaker 1: them out publicly and it will come out that, yeah, 512 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: they sent a LinkedIn message request like two hours before. Oh, 513 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: that's the only way we can find you. I don't 514 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,560 Speaker 1: know about you. If you send me a LinkedIn message request, 515 00:27:42,600 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: I may get to it in about ten years, right, 516 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: Like I don't know how to get on LinkedIn. Yeah, 517 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,959 Speaker 1: well that's what I mean. You know, you could send me. 518 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: You could send me a friendst message. I think is 519 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,040 Speaker 1: that website even that doesn't exist anymore, right, but you 520 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:56,800 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You could send me an AOL 521 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 1: instant message or something and guess what, I'm not going 522 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: to get it. But they do that so they can say, 523 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:03,960 Speaker 1: well we tried, and they can just run with the story. 524 00:28:04,040 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of tricks that they pull. I've 525 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: also learned people ask me this. They'll say, well, will 526 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 1: you speak to what I would call regime media because 527 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 1: not really anymore, but back in the day, they used 528 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,199 Speaker 1: to reach out to me occasionally for comment on different 529 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,160 Speaker 1: like terrorism related things when I was doing a lot 530 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: of that work and count you know, counter terrorism analysis, 531 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,879 Speaker 1: and I would I learned the answer, Clay is no, 532 00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:28,280 Speaker 1: because if you're giving them a quote, they can introduce 533 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 1: the quote as you know, right wing lunatic who always 534 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: makes stuff up. Buck Sexton says this, and you're like, 535 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 1: why am I giving them? You know, if they're going 536 00:28:36,440 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: to say that anyway, don't anyway, you guys see how 537 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: some of this goes. So Dave Portnoy figured out that 538 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 1: the Washington Post was planning to do. Well, what they 539 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 1: did was they sent an email out right to his 540 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:53,800 Speaker 1: sponsors for his event on Saturday, and the email says 541 00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 1: something like, well, here Dave recorded his conversation with this reporter. 542 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: Here is how it went. Play the clip. 543 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 4: If you don't have your opinion made of me, how 544 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 4: do you say in an intro email, Dave Portnoy, you 545 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:09,480 Speaker 4: has a history of misogenic comments and other problematic behavior. 546 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 4: That's how you introduce the email. 547 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, so look, I just want you to know that 548 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 3: this is no I want to talk to you about this. 549 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 4: But don't you think you should talk to me before 550 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 4: sending that email? 551 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: Have you made your mind up about me? We're in 552 00:29:23,680 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: the reporting phase. 553 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,240 Speaker 3: I don't you know. I can't for me to say, 554 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 3: and I'm also working with somebody else. 555 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 4: But that seems like a pretty straightforward question that have 556 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 4: you made your mind up about me? 557 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 1: If you can't answer that, no, I can say I 558 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: have not made my mind up about. 559 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 4: You, then why would you include that in the In 560 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 4: the email the sponsors, it's. 561 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 3: Sort of a reporting tactic. When you want someone to respond, 562 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 3: you kind of have to indicate that there might be 563 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 3: something negative and then you get. 564 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 5: Them to engage. 565 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: That's all I was trying to do. I really wanted 566 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: them to engage with me. 567 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 4: That is a sad state of journalism if that's the 568 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 4: tactic that you have to what I would say, is 569 00:29:58,720 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 4: make up something about some. 570 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 2: Wow, that's well cut. That's well cut by Greg I 571 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 2: think here on the staff. Who I mean, you can 572 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 2: go watch that, Buck, I was just looking over thirty 573 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 2: million people have watched the entire He recorded his entire 574 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:17,239 Speaker 2: conversation with this Washington Post reporter, who, as you can 575 00:30:17,320 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 2: hear in that comment, had been sending out email saying 576 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 2: basically to any advertiser, why are you working with this 577 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 2: misogynistic individual and basically trying to shame the advertiser for 578 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 2: being involved. And by the way, you might be wondering, 579 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:39,040 Speaker 2: what's going on. It's a pizza festival. So this is 580 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 2: not like I mean, it's a freaking pizza festival. It's 581 00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 2: not like he's putting on a get out the vote, 582 00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 2: you know, like New York or say secure the border, 583 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:53,000 Speaker 2: build a wall. It's just a pizza festival. So the 584 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 2: idea that you would be saying, how in the world 585 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 2: can this? But this is important, Buck, because you know this, 586 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 2: But I think a lot of our listeners don't necessar. 587 00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:00,479 Speaker 1: Sarihly. 588 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,560 Speaker 2: This is what the Washington Post and the New York 589 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:08,160 Speaker 2: Times have become. They basically are the attack dog of 590 00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 2: left wing organizations. Remember when they named us, what did 591 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 2: they name us, the third biggest purveyor of misinformation? 592 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: COVID misinformation. 593 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 2: Yes, And we invited the people on who did the study, 594 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: and they refuse to come on. 595 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 1: If there's another pandemic, We're coming for you, Steve Benn, 596 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: and we're going to catch you. 597 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 2: And then we invited the New York Times had a 598 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,840 Speaker 2: front page article about it, and we invited the writer 599 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 2: of the New York Times article to come on. If 600 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: you really thought that we were massive purveyors of misinformation, 601 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 2: wouldn't you want to come talk to this audience. But no, 602 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,120 Speaker 2: what it's designed to do. And look, I've seen this 603 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 2: happen with YouTube, I've seen this happen with everybody. Is 604 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:50,960 Speaker 2: they want to scare businesses away from being associated with 605 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 2: people whose opinions they don't like. And instead of writing 606 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: a story where it could just be like, hey, I 607 00:31:56,680 --> 00:32:01,120 Speaker 2: disagree with your opinions and being fair and impartial as 608 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 2: a journalist should be, Hey, here's what this person has said. 609 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 2: Here's what they've done. Give us a full throated understanding 610 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 2: of somebody. What they're trying to do is write and 611 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 2: shame these advertisers and get them to pull out, because 612 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 2: they want these companies to be terrified because their PR 613 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 2: team is going to be like, the Washington Post just 614 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:20,680 Speaker 2: wrote a negative article about us, What in the world 615 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 2: are we. 616 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: Going to do? 617 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 2: And here he flips the script and goes to them 618 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 2: directly beforehand. And the other thing I would say, Buck, 619 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 2: is I've had the same issue with the Washington Post. 620 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 2: I've had issues with organizations. Ask them to put their 621 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 2: questions in writing for you. It's amazing how rarely they're 622 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 2: willing to do that. If you think somebody's going to 623 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 2: write something negative about you, and you're out there listening 624 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 2: to us right now, and they contact you and they 625 00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 2: want to comment, So, yeah, can you write your questions 626 00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 2: and I'll respond to them in writing, because then you 627 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 2: have a record of exactly what you're responding, if you 628 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 2: want to respond at all. But you also then have 629 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:00,400 Speaker 2: all of their questions and a record of them up. 630 00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:02,800 Speaker 2: And I gotta tell you everybody, if you talk to 631 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 2: somebody for twenty minutes and they take a sentence out 632 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 2: of whatever twenty minutes you said, they can make you 633 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 2: see whatever they want. It's it's just not a fair 634 00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,719 Speaker 2: and impartial piece of journalism. 635 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,480 Speaker 1: I also think it's funny when she says, you know, 636 00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 1: sometimes you basically just have to say something kind of 637 00:33:19,680 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 1: crazy to get a response. It's like you're you're maligning 638 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:28,000 Speaker 1: someone's character. I mean, you're going after a person. And 639 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:33,200 Speaker 1: going after sponsors is a particularly pernicious way to do 640 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: journalism because you're not just saying this is my opinion 641 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 1: of someone, You're obviously trying to pull their their business model. Yes, 642 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 1: and it's gross. You know, you know, we don't go 643 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,280 Speaker 1: after people's sponsors here. We don't try to get rid 644 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: of people's business models. Look, people revolted against the bud 645 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:55,400 Speaker 1: like campaign. That wasn't you know that happened. We weren't saying, oh, 646 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 1: do this or do that. That's just the reality of 647 00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,000 Speaker 1: how people responded to bud Light and that trans influencer. 648 00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:07,240 Speaker 1: But there's something really deeply, you know, something really underhanded 649 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: about the way an organization like the Washington Post would 650 00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: set this up. And I think that Portnoy was able 651 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,760 Speaker 1: to expose it so that people can be breaking news. 652 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,800 Speaker 1: On sevent ten, woor. 653 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,399 Speaker 5: This is Jeff McKinney and from the wr newsroom with 654 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:25,560 Speaker 5: some breaking news. A greyhound bus accident of westbound I 655 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 5: eighty four near Waywayanda near Middletown in Goshen, New York. 656 00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 5: This is in Orange County. Traffic is backed up for 657 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 5: miles on westbound I eighty four. At least fifty people 658 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 5: aboard the bus. We understand that bus appears to have 659 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 5: rolled onto its side and the medium between east and 660 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 5: westbound I eighty four, and we're getting word just now 661 00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 5: that I eighty four has closed in both directions between 662 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 5: exits one and fifteen, and the expectation is that this 663 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:53,280 Speaker 5: should be the case for several hours that closure. Multiple 664 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 5: injuries are being reported. Beyond that, details are still coming in, 665 00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,399 Speaker 5: so avoid that area. I'm Jeff McKinney from the New Room. 666 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 5: We'll send it back now to Clay and Book there. 667 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: When they're pretending to be something that they're not right, 668 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 1: when they're deciding that they're going to write a certain 669 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 1: kind of narrative, I think it's disgraceful. So, you know, 670 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: props importing way here. 671 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: I think also Bucket, A good way to put this is, 672 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 2: we think the View is the dumbest show on television. 673 00:35:19,160 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 1: They should have us both on. It would be the 674 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,840 Speaker 1: highest rated set. It would be the best, most clipped, 675 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: highest rated view of the year. 676 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:29,840 Speaker 2: But we would never on this show, we play the 677 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 2: clips of the View so that you guys can can 678 00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 2: hear some of the ridiculous things they say. And I 679 00:35:34,200 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 2: think most of their audiences idiots too. But I would 680 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:42,480 Speaker 2: never have OutKick reach out to whoever the View's advertisers 681 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 2: are and say, hey, you know Sharman Ultra, are you 682 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:49,960 Speaker 2: sure that you want to Are you sure that you 683 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 2: want to be spending your money? Hey always with wings, 684 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:55,640 Speaker 2: Are you sure that you want to be spending your 685 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 2: money on the View? No, like there is an audience 686 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:00,879 Speaker 2: for their idiocy, and some of you out there may 687 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,319 Speaker 2: say there's an audience for you and Buck City see 688 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 2: it too. They may think that that's fine. When you're 689 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 2: going after sponsors. What you're trying to do is cancel 690 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:15,200 Speaker 2: people that you don't like their opinions. And that is 691 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 2: and they claim Holier than Now status, but that's really 692 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 2: what they're doing. It's just a direct attack at the 693 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 2: business itself. So if you had to have. 694 00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 1: Just a drink with one of the cast members of 695 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 1: the Right Now, who would it be If you had 696 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 1: to sit down have a drink a friendly drink, not 697 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: a debate, but you have to actually hang out with 698 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: one of them. Okay, so I'll rank them. They're five, right, 699 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: I can't even name all that. 700 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 2: I think it's Whoopee, Anna Navarro, Joy Behar, Sonny Houstin, 701 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 2: and Alyssa Right, Alyssa Fara Griffin. I think that, and 702 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 2: somebody staff can correct me if I'm wrong. I think 703 00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 2: they have five women on the view pretty much every day. 704 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 2: They may rotate in somebody else. So here's my power 705 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,480 Speaker 2: rankings for who I'd most like to have a drink with. 706 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 2: Probably Whoopy Goldberg won just because she's super famous and 707 00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 2: she at least has been has been funny for much 708 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 2: of her career, so I think she probably could make 709 00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:18,920 Speaker 2: you laugh while you were having a drink. I'd probably 710 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 2: put Alyssa second, Joy Behart third. I think all three 711 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:27,080 Speaker 2: of those people could maybe Joy Bahar second, Alyssa third, 712 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 2: because I think Joy Behar and Whoopee might be able 713 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 2: to make you laugh because they're comedians, problems really really 714 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:35,279 Speaker 2: funny to have a drink with. 715 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 1: Same same with Whoopee, I would go. I mean Whoopy 716 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:40,000 Speaker 1: would be my top choice as well, so yeah. 717 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 2: But I would not want to have a drink with 718 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 2: Sonny Hostin or with Anna Navarro. Both of them seem 719 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 2: really unlikable to me, particularly Sonny Houston, who's face to 720 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 2: something always looks like she's smelling something that she doesn't like. 721 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 1: I think both of them would be in a I 722 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,880 Speaker 1: think they would be utterly contemptuous of you and me, 723 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 1: So that would that would not be to our favor, 724 00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: would not go well in that respect either. That's a 725 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 1: good the Power rankings a good good question. I think 726 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: Willo would actually not be bad one on one. And 727 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 1: even though I think Jory Day, I will tell you 728 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:12,880 Speaker 1: and this is I always get yelled at when I 729 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:15,359 Speaker 1: say things like this. I know someone who who knows 730 00:38:15,360 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: what be Goldberg and says she's actually really pleasant and nice. 731 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and there's joy Bahar, at least I think is dumb, 732 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean she couldn't be funny. 733 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:28,000 Speaker 1: And I'm sure you get a couple of Chardonnay's enjoy 734 00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:29,839 Speaker 1: and she's hilarious, and. 735 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,440 Speaker 2: They probably those people know everybody, so they probably got 736 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:34,360 Speaker 2: some good stories. So those would be my top two choices. 737 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 2: No college compares to Hillsdale College when it comes to 738 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:40,000 Speaker 2: teaching and explaining the brilliance contained in our Constitution. You know, 739 00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 2: every incoming freshman at Hillsdale College is required to take 740 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 2: at least one full course on this great document.

We might need to talk about this 757 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 2: in a little bit. This is pretty wild. There are 758 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,359 Speaker 2: reports out there and I just sent this to Buck, 759 00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:50,480 Speaker 2: because I'm just reading it myself, and this has come 760 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 2: up in the last thirty minutes or so the New 761 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 2: York Post. Buck is reporting that at a fundraiser in 762 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:05,279 Speaker 2: New York City at the billionaire's No Surprise House, Joe 763 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 2: Biden repeated his statements, and he was talking about why 764 00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 2: he decided to run. You know, he's telling the very 765 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,520 Speaker 2: fine people why he's been telling this story for a 766 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 2: long time, about why he decided to run for president. 767 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 2: He told that entire story, according to the report, and 768 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 2: then a couple of minutes later, came back and told 769 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,319 Speaker 2: the entire story all over again, as if he had 770 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:31,600 Speaker 2: not told it the first time. 771 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:35,200 Speaker 1: Again. This New York Post. 772 00:40:35,080 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 2: Story that is up, that has gone up in the 773 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 2: last thirty minutes or so. 774 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 1: Buck. 775 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,920 Speaker 2: I mean, anybody who has got an elderly family member, 776 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 2: you probably have experienced this with grandpa or grandma or 777 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 2: great grandpa or great grandma. The short term memory is 778 00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 2: not what it once was. And one of the clear 779 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 2: signs of dementia is when you tell a story and 780 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:05,880 Speaker 2: then seem to have completely forgotten that you told the 781 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,440 Speaker 2: story and tell it all over again. And that is 782 00:41:09,480 --> 00:41:12,239 Speaker 2: the report that is out there from the New York 783 00:41:12,280 --> 00:41:16,240 Speaker 2: Post about this fundraiser Wednesday night in New York City 784 00:41:16,840 --> 00:41:22,000 Speaker 2: at a billionaire's house. This is why Buck, I just 785 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:27,319 Speaker 2: keep coming back to. I don't see any way that 786 00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 2: they can hide Biden from the reality of his deteriorating 787 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 2: mental status. Now you can say, look at Fetterman, they're 788 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 2: not going to care. Democrats will vote for him anyway. 789 00:41:39,320 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 2: I think when seventy five percent of people don't think 790 00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 2: he has the mental or physical ability to be president, 791 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 2: there is going to be and I don't claim to 792 00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:50,760 Speaker 2: know what it is. He's already fallen on the stage 793 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,880 Speaker 2: at Air Force They had to change the steps on 794 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: Air Force one to try to keep him from falling 795 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 2: down the stairs, going up and down the stairs, as 796 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,719 Speaker 2: has already happened. He may have an awful fall in 797 00:42:00,800 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 2: the White House trip fall, break his arm. 798 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 1: We know Mitch. 799 00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:07,120 Speaker 2: McConnell's had this happen where Mitch McConnell fell and had 800 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 2: a concussion. But I think there's going to be a 801 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 2: public event, and I don't claim to know when it is. 802 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,000 Speaker 2: But if we're sitting here in mid to late September 803 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 2: and we know it's fourteen months until the election, I 804 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,439 Speaker 2: think Biden is going to have an incident like Mitch 805 00:42:26,520 --> 00:42:29,480 Speaker 2: McConnell had where he freezes in front of the cameras, 806 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:33,000 Speaker 2: where he's going to have an incident. Something is going 807 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 2: to happen. Buck, that is so bad. I think it's 808 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 2: going to be considered reckless for him to run. And 809 00:42:38,640 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 2: let me just say this, that's one thing to say, like, 810 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,319 Speaker 2: you're John Fetterman is not able to do the job 811 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:47,200 Speaker 2: of a United States Senator. But the reality is as 812 00:42:47,320 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 2: one of a one hundred United States Senators. While his 813 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:54,839 Speaker 2: power is substantial, it's not, hey, what do we do 814 00:42:54,920 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 2: if China invades Taiwan level substantial. He's not even a 815 00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: governor where he's got executing authority that matters. He's not 816 00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 2: really much of a decision maker. I think when I 817 00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 2: see the story, I mean, that's pretty crazy Buck to 818 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 2: be up in front of that high end of an 819 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 2: audience and not realize the story. 820 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:16,880 Speaker 1: I'm sure you saw the video also of Biden. 821 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,279 Speaker 2: It appeared that he forgot to shake the hands of 822 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:20,320 Speaker 2: Brazil's president. 823 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 1: Did you see the way he. 824 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,400 Speaker 2: Like, guy can't get off stages now, he waved to 825 00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 2: the media. But the Brazilian president is standing there like 826 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 2: clearly waiting for him to shake his hand. He could 827 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 2: have really made it a show. You know how sometimes 828 00:43:33,680 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 2: you ever see athletes when like you get caught like 829 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,799 Speaker 2: giving a fist pound or giving a high five, you 830 00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:41,279 Speaker 2: now will give it to yourself, like, you know, kind 831 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,160 Speaker 2: of give yourself a high five or give yourself a 832 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:43,919 Speaker 2: fist pound. 833 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: It's kind of funny. 834 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,680 Speaker 2: The Brazilian president could have done that and really drawn 835 00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 2: a lot of attention to it. But this is scary. 836 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 2: This is getting to the point where it's beyond scary, 837 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,560 Speaker 2: and I think moved firmly into total recklessness that this 838 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:02,040 Speaker 2: guy is in any way in the position that he is. 839 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I think we're definitely at that point of recklessness. 840 00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: That much is clear. I just don't know if it 841 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,279 Speaker 1: really changes. I mean, I can tell you what they're 842 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,799 Speaker 1: gonna say. They're gonna say, oh, you know, Joe is 843 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:18,040 Speaker 1: he he's tired, He's done so many of these things. 844 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:23,759 Speaker 1: He's I just don't I don't see how based upon 845 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 1: a gaff. You have to remember, Joe Biden's whole career 846 00:44:28,960 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 1: is built on gaffs. Joe Biden's whole I mean, and 847 00:44:31,719 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 1: that's way before he was somebody where senility and dementia 848 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: were even considerations. And we have effectively been told this 849 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,759 Speaker 1: whole time that Joe Biden is a guy who sometimes 850 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:48,520 Speaker 1: goes off into never never Land and says some weird stuff, 851 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,839 Speaker 1: and that's just good old Joe By and Joe. Now 852 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:55,000 Speaker 1: it's obviously gotten worse. It's more apparent people can see 853 00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 1: what's going on and understand this. But I mean, you know, Clay, 854 00:45:00,239 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 1: just so what happens, right, I mean, we've always said 855 00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 1: there's the possibility that Biden, for true health reasons, would 856 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:09,760 Speaker 1: have to step down and they would just rally behind Kamala. 857 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:11,640 Speaker 1: I mean, that's why you have a vice president. That's 858 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: true of any president. So that is possible. But short 859 00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 1: of something like that, I just don't think they really 860 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:22,800 Speaker 1: have options here. I don't think they really have another 861 00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 1: way to go, do you know what I mean? 862 00:45:24,520 --> 00:45:27,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I understand, I understand that argument. I 863 00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:31,200 Speaker 2: just this is their fear, right, This is deep down 864 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 2: the Democrat fear. It is that Joe Biden becomes And 865 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 2: this is why the timing, This is why last week 866 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:43,280 Speaker 2: was so important, Buck, because they know, keep this in mind, 867 00:45:43,320 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 2: this is so important for everybody out there. We only 868 00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:51,000 Speaker 2: have access to Joe Biden for like two percent of 869 00:45:51,040 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: the day, right, They keep him out of the public 870 00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 2: eye for like all but two percent of the day. 871 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:03,560 Speaker 2: Imagine how bad he is behind closed doors. You asked 872 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:05,920 Speaker 2: the question, you know, and we said, hey, James Clyburn 873 00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:09,319 Speaker 2: could move. You'll really know that people are making the 874 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:12,520 Speaker 2: move to move on from Joe Biden. Buck when suddenly 875 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: all of these stories which are one hundred percent certainly 876 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:21,280 Speaker 2: happening about Joe Biden's mental problems start to come out 877 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 2: in the news. Because you know, if just based off 878 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:26,359 Speaker 2: the two percent of the day that we see Joe 879 00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:31,439 Speaker 2: Biden Buck, if we see him fall down coming down 880 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 2: the stairs, if we see him fall trip and fall 881 00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,279 Speaker 2: on the stage, if we see him try to talk 882 00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:40,520 Speaker 2: to a dead congresswoman, if we see him now in 883 00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:44,840 Speaker 2: this fundraiser, tell the exact same story a couple of 884 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:49,040 Speaker 2: minutes apart. We're only seeing two percent of public Joe Biden, 885 00:46:49,320 --> 00:46:51,520 Speaker 2: and they hide him off at the beach. Imagine what 886 00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:59,400 Speaker 2: Joe Biden has seen, And honestly, that is indefensible because 887 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:03,280 Speaker 2: imagine what she has seen as the wife of Joe Biden, 888 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 2: and what she's heard him say, and what that would 889 00:47:08,200 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 2: do if you knew, if every single person listening to 890 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 2: us right now knew what Joe Biden knew, there is 891 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 2: a zero percent chance that Joe Biden, I believe, would 892 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:20,959 Speaker 2: still be the President of the United States. Like I'm 893 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 2: sure she has seen and heard Joe Biden do so 894 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:31,040 Speaker 2: many dementia riddled things that it is like terrifying to 895 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:32,720 Speaker 2: contemplate that he's making choices. 896 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: I look, I agree with you, and I think I 897 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 1: think the entirety of the audience agrees with you. I 898 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:47,279 Speaker 1: just look at this as yet here he is, he 899 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,480 Speaker 1: is the president. He showed no indications that he's going 900 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 1: to step down. There was an op ed in the 901 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 1: New York Times a few days a few days ago. 902 00:47:55,600 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 1: I forget who the author was that was effectively saying, 903 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 1: the chance that Joe Biden is going to walk away 904 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,040 Speaker 1: from this is like zero. Okay, Like Joe Biden, my 905 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 1: whole life is about power. There's no way all of 906 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:08,480 Speaker 1: a sudden he's gonna say he's got the most, Yeah, 907 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:10,359 Speaker 1: the upmost power. He's not gonna give it up. Yeah, 908 00:48:10,520 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 1: he's not about to walk away from the presidency. Okay, 909 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen. And I also think right now 910 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 1: it's easy for us in a primary mindset, well we're 911 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:21,719 Speaker 1: kind of not in a primary mindset, but we're still 912 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:24,000 Speaker 1: in the midst of a primary to look over at 913 00:48:24,080 --> 00:48:27,040 Speaker 1: Joe Biden and say, he's so senile, this is so ridiculous. 914 00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:29,520 Speaker 1: He can't hand, you know, he can't do anything. And 915 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 1: what they're gonna say, what the ads are going to 916 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:37,680 Speaker 1: sound like on this is Donald Trump's basically Biden's age. 917 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: And now we can say, as people that like trumpet 918 00:48:40,280 --> 00:48:43,279 Speaker 1: voted for Trump, Oh, but he's so much more cognitively 919 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,399 Speaker 1: there and with it and so much more. Yeah, all true. 920 00:48:45,400 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 1: He certainly also looks he looks, you know, ten or 921 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 1: fifteen years younger than Biden. But let's put that aside. 922 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,760 Speaker 1: That's gonna nullify a lot of this. I think for people, 923 00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: they're gonna say, you've got two really, you know, because 924 00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:59,520 Speaker 1: the polls say that a lot of people feel they're 925 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,879 Speaker 1: both two old. Now, Trump true believers don't feel that way, 926 00:49:02,920 --> 00:49:05,840 Speaker 1: and the Republican base doesn't feel that way. But I 927 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: think Democrats are willing to roll the dice on independent 928 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:09,880 Speaker 1: voters and say, you know, one guy's eighty two, one 929 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 1: guy seventy eight. This is what the people want. Let's 930 00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: see who wins. I mean, I look, I always they've 931 00:49:16,160 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: opened the possibility that I could be totally wrong on this, 932 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,799 Speaker 1: and there's some master scheme in the background that they're 933 00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:24,160 Speaker 1: I just I just don't see them. 934 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 3: Man. 935 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 1: I think this is where they're They're gonna run with 936 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:26,719 Speaker 1: it no matter what. 937 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 2: Here's where I just I can't believe if I am 938 00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,399 Speaker 2: Jared paulis right Polis, the governor of Colorado, who, as 939 00:49:36,440 --> 00:49:41,919 Speaker 2: Democrats go, seems to be fairly reasonable. If I am 940 00:49:42,160 --> 00:49:48,520 Speaker 2: Gretchen Witmer and I am nakedly ambitious, and I am 941 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 2: already tapped out right, I'm governor second term, and I 942 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 2: know that I would not be first tier necessarily in 943 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:03,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty when everybody decides that they want to run 944 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 2: for president, Why wouldn't you run? Honestly, if I were 945 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:10,319 Speaker 2: the governor of Colorado right now? Why do they have 946 00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 2: some great loyalty to Joe Biden. I think it's easier. 947 00:50:13,520 --> 00:50:15,440 Speaker 2: This is my argument. I could be totally wrong, but 948 00:50:15,480 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 2: just think about it. Think about it. 949 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,640 Speaker 1: If your goal was to be president of the United States, 950 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: what is easier. 951 00:50:21,480 --> 00:50:24,440 Speaker 2: Running against Kamala Harris, which you would have to do 952 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:28,000 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty eight, a black woman in an identity 953 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:32,520 Speaker 2: politics riddled Democrat party, if you're a white guy, or 954 00:50:32,560 --> 00:50:35,919 Speaker 2: even if you're a white woman, or running against old 955 00:50:35,960 --> 00:50:39,920 Speaker 2: white guy Joe Biden, and saying the election is too 956 00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:42,839 Speaker 2: important to leave it to an eighty two year old. 957 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:47,239 Speaker 2: Republicans are running Donald Trump. Democrats need to put forward 958 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,839 Speaker 2: a younger alternative to Trump and a guy who can 959 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 2: serve two terms. I don't understand why those guys. If 960 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:56,880 Speaker 2: I were the governor of Colorado right now and I 961 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:58,920 Speaker 2: was a Democrat, why do I care what the party 962 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:01,520 Speaker 2: thinks about me? I'm somewhat clear. 963 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,279 Speaker 1: General, you got to look at this from from the 964 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 1: other side, though. Look at what the Republican Party is doing. 965 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 1: Our guy seventy eight, you can only serve one term, 966 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,040 Speaker 1: and he's up, you know, fifty points in the polls, 967 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,360 Speaker 1: So that the argument that argument would make against Biden 968 00:51:17,520 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 1: hasn't compelled the Republicans not to make it, and I 969 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,080 Speaker 1: think that that affects the way this goes well. I 970 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: think the difference is Republicans actually like Trump, and I. 971 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:31,560 Speaker 2: Understand some of you are, like, I hate trumg. Trump 972 00:51:31,600 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 2: has been very popular with Republicans. Joe Biden's an accidental president. 973 00:51:36,200 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 2: If you look at the polling, seventy five percent of 974 00:51:39,120 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 2: Democrats don't want Joe Biden to be the nominee. 975 00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:44,600 Speaker 1: Why if your goal is to be president of. 976 00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 2: The United States and you are sitting right now and 977 00:51:48,160 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 2: you're the governor of Colorado, you're the governor of Michigan, 978 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:52,120 Speaker 2: now's the time to go. 979 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: If all this is true, why haven't they Why hasn't 980 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:56,400 Speaker 1: it changed? 981 00:51:56,600 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 2: This is the fundamental question. It's here's where I wonder 982 00:52:01,160 --> 00:52:04,040 Speaker 2: am I crazy? And I think everybody out there every 983 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:06,400 Speaker 2: now and then you should ask yourself, are you crazy? 984 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 1: What am I missing? 985 00:52:09,160 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 3: Like? 986 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,239 Speaker 2: The calculus is so clear to me that if you 987 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 2: are a somewhat successful Democrat governor right now and you 988 00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:20,399 Speaker 2: want to be president of the United States, you are 989 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 2: never going to have a better chance. You get in 990 00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 2: the ring against Joe Biden. Basically one on one, you 991 00:52:27,320 --> 00:52:30,200 Speaker 2: got Maryann Williamson, you got RFK Junior. Okay, but they're 992 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 2: not traditional candidates. It's a probability game, right. If there 993 00:52:34,840 --> 00:52:38,640 Speaker 2: are twenty five people who are running, any one individual 994 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:41,279 Speaker 2: candidate has what a four percent chance. Now, everybody's got 995 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 2: different percentages and everything else, but it's harder to knock 996 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:49,759 Speaker 2: your way through a twenty five person field, and especially 997 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:54,600 Speaker 2: get through Kamala Harris and the white the whole identity politics, 998 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 2: black woman. She's the next person up. But if you 999 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 2: take on Joe Biden, you could be the guy. Like 1000 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 2: if I were the governor of Colorado right now and 1001 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:07,279 Speaker 2: I were a Democrat, I would announce that I would 1002 00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 2: go right after Joe Biden. 1003 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 1: What do you care? Because you're what are you wing? 1004 00:53:11,880 --> 00:53:15,360 Speaker 1: You're undermining a sitting Democratic president. That's not so I 1005 00:53:15,440 --> 00:53:18,200 Speaker 1: don't care. RFK Junior tried and that guy, you know, 1006 00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:20,000 Speaker 1: no one even hears what he has to say anymore 1007 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 1: these days. I'm just being honest. I mean, it's just 1008 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:25,280 Speaker 1: you're already the governor. If you lose to Joe Biden, 1009 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,480 Speaker 1: you're not the president. You're not the president anyway. 1010 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 2: Like I I think I have a higher risk tolerance 1011 00:53:31,120 --> 00:53:31,760 Speaker 2: than most people. 1012 00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:33,319 Speaker 1: Let's be honest, I probably do. 1013 00:53:34,239 --> 00:53:38,919 Speaker 2: But also if you already have something, you're not even 1014 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 2: risking anything. How do you we talk all the time, 1015 00:53:42,080 --> 00:53:45,560 Speaker 2: who loses from running for president? You might upset a 1016 00:53:45,560 --> 00:53:48,040 Speaker 2: few people, but most people are going to agree with you. 1017 00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:50,919 Speaker 2: I just I see this as a no brainer as 1018 00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:54,200 Speaker 2: all of these Biden gaffes keep compounding, and I agree 1019 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:55,960 Speaker 2: with you, Buck, I think there's no way Biden's going 1020 00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 2: to step down to beat that. You got to knock 1021 00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 2: the king out to be the king, you got to 1022 00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:02,640 Speaker 2: beat the king. 1023 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,240 Speaker 1: Nobody on the Democrat side is just going to decide 1024 00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: to do that. That's going to take What a bunch 1025 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 1: of pussy willows they all are. I mean, they got 1026 00:54:13,040 --> 00:54:15,160 Speaker 1: a president and they want them to do four more years. 1027 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:17,520 Speaker 1: I don't know they view this as just a raw 1028 00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:21,320 Speaker 1: exercise of power, I don't think, and going up against 1029 00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,759 Speaker 1: an incumbent from your own party. And the truth is 1030 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,080 Speaker 1: most of the people that were excited about RFK Junior 1031 00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:29,560 Speaker 1: were Republicans. Okay, so that's why that didn't get very 1032 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:31,719 Speaker 1: far in the Democrat party. But anyway, we can come 1033 00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:34,360 Speaker 1: back this, what do y'all think eight hundred two A 1034 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 1: two two eight a two that all adage from Las Vegas, 1035 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:39,799 Speaker 1: what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas has proven to 1036 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: be untrue because of some cyber hackers.
