00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,600
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Tutor Dixon Podcast. This is our group podcast.

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:07,200
Speaker 1: We have Kyle Olsen and Sarah Broadwater with me today,

3
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:10,799
Speaker 1: and I just wanted to kind of get this like

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:12,640
Speaker 1: peel back the layers of.

5
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,360
Speaker 2: The Kamala onion.

6
00:00:14,440 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: And I think a few of these stories that we're

7
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,320
Speaker 1: going to talk about today do because I keep hearing

8
00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:22,560
Speaker 1: people like, oh my goodness, she's getting all this press attention,

9
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: she's rising in the polls, and we're never going to

10
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 1: get the truth out about her. And I just want

11
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: everybody to stop panicking because the truth is really bad

12
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 1: about Kamala and Tim Walls, but it's it's unraveling right.

13
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 2: Before our eyes.

14
00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 1: So and I also wanted to bring this up because

15
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:42,480
Speaker 1: Sarah sent me something a couple of days ago, because

16
00:00:42,479 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys remember, but I was

17
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: on Handity one night. I was talking about the low

18
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,720
Speaker 1: the low water, all that water saving stuff and the

19
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: water saving toilets, which I stand by are terrible because

20
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 1: I said, yoids at the flush our toilets twice and

21
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: people made fun of me, which it's just it just sinks.

22
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: And Trump always talks about the low flow showers, you know,

23
00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 1: like Seinfeld days of low flow showers and I what

24
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,080
Speaker 1: did I post that? Somebody was like, oh, I had

25
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: to scrape conditioner out of my child's hair, so sad

26
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: that you aren't governor, which was obviously sener.

27
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 2: You were posting about the northern lights and the some

28
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,400
Speaker 2: dad commented her mom, I don't even remember, and was like,

29
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 2: I would have loved to see this, but I was

30
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 2: too busy spread conditioner out of my child's hair due

31
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:26,280
Speaker 2: to the low flow fawcet.

32
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: Well for all of you that make fun of that,

33
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: just so you know your stoves are toast. So, Kyle,

34
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,440
Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you talk about this because our old

35
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: governor is responsible for It's like Michigan produces.

36
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 2: The worst people.

37
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, so, uh so the.

38
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: Or elected office Democrats, That's what I'm so.

39
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 3: The environmentalists in the Buying administration are just finding any

40
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 3: possible way to make life miserable for everyone else, not

41
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: for themselves, of course, because they all love to have

42
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 3: their guest stoves and they take pictures with their gas stoves,

43
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,160
Speaker 3: but they don't want the rest of us to have

44
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 3: a gas stove. And so if you remember back, I

45
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 3: think it was last year, they basically, they want to

46
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 3: create efficiency rules for gas stoves, which will make it

47
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: probably very difficult to own or manufacture, etc. Well, that

48
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 3: was widely ridiculed and they sort of got rid of it.

49
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 3: But then it turns out, according to the Daily Caller

50
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 3: this week, they actually implemented the rules. Now they say

51
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 3: it's a little less stringent, whatever that might mean. But

52
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 3: the fact of the matter is the Biden administration, the

53
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 3: Department of Energy, which is run by Jennifer Grahnholm, who

54
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 3: is a former Michigan governor, enacted this rule. And so

55
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 3: here they are. I mean, we talked last week about

56
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 3: how Kamala Harris says she doesn't believe the government should be,

57
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,600
Speaker 3: you know, in everyone's lives all the time. Of course

58
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 3: she's talking about abortion, but the reality is the Democrats,

59
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: the Biden administration has government in our lives all the time.

60
00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:13,639
Speaker 3: And this is another example.

61
00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: But so I'm sorry, I'm gonna interrupt you because this

62
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,760
Speaker 1: is something that I keep saying. These departments, the bureaucracy

63
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,880
Speaker 1: creating laws. They call them rules, but if you break

64
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 1: them then you are in legal troubles. So you have

65
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: the health departments that are creating rules, you have the

66
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 1: that are then become laws. It's the same thing with

67
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 1: the Department of Natural Resources. You have them creating rules.

68
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 1: Now the Department of Energy. I mean, you guys, this

69
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: is not this our unelected officials, who are not lawmakers

70
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: making law.

71
00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 2: Well, yet the role of most of these departments is

72
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 2: to carry out what the legislature has put into law.

73
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 2: Now suddenly they're becoming the ones that are trying to

74
00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 2: make their version of lay. But the other thing about

75
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: this is when I mean you went out, I mean,

76
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 2: there were so many conservatives out on TV talking about

77
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: this that this was going to happen, the light bulbs,

78
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,160
Speaker 2: all of those issues, and you were mocked totally by

79
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: the Democrat. No, you guys are crazy. This is never

80
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 2: going to happen.

81
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: But exactly what you said is going to happen is

82
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:23,719
Speaker 1: happening now. It's so frustrating because this is where the

83
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 1: media is really responsible for coming out and saying, actually,

84
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 1: this would be a terrible thing if the Department of

85
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 1: Energy could suddenly make a law and change how we

86
00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 1: I mean, this will change how you build houses and everything.

87
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 1: It will change everything, and yet the media doesn't or

88
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: the media was also filing on like these conservatives are

89
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,919
Speaker 1: crazy lunatics, but it's true. And this is what happens

90
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: when you have state run propaganda media. It's just a joke.

91
00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 2: It also changes how businesses operate. I mean, we think

92
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,760
Speaker 2: about the EVE aspect right this, but I mean think

93
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 2: about a whirlpool or a GLG or you know, all

94
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: of these manufacturers who you have a certain percentage of

95
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 2: your business that's electric, you have a certain percent that's gas.

96
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 2: I mean, that's going to totally turn them on their

97
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 2: heads too, to figure out how are they going to

98
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,479
Speaker 2: change production of these things depending on what the time

99
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 2: limits are too.

100
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just finishing a special for Newsmacs on EV

101
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 3: mandates and I've learned a lot and I think a

102
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:24,800
Speaker 3: lot of people don't realize exactly what is happening and

103
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: how it's happening because the Biden administration again, they're they're

104
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 3: requiring EV manufacturers and dealerships to make and sell fifty

105
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 3: four percent of what they make and sell has to

106
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 3: be EV's by twenty thirty. Twenty thirty is basically right

107
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 3: around the corner. And what the data and what the

108
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 3: sales are showing is that people don't want evs and

109
00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 3: There's a lot of different reasons about that. The cause,

110
00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:04,680
Speaker 3: the maintenance, the fact that if you get a little,

111
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 3: you know, a little fender bender, the whole thing is totaled.

112
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,159
Speaker 1: The fact that you can't charge them. They don't go

113
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: restaurant more than a few miles. Yes, what do they

114
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: call it? Rangings?

115
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 3: Yes, ranging anxiety because you don't know, you know. And

116
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 3: so Trump has been has been riffing on this, especially

117
00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 3: at his Michigan rallies, about all of this. But I

118
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 3: think he does that in part because people are on

119
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 3: his side. And there was a story The Midwesterner wrote

120
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,559
Speaker 3: about a poll that was done that of Michiganders people

121
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 3: in Michigan, seventy one percent will not buy an suv. Period,

122
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,440
Speaker 3: seventy one percent.

123
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,640
Speaker 1: This is where I mean to Sarah's point of manufacturers

124
00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:47,800
Speaker 1: putting manufacturers in a bad place. Where is the free

125
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 1: market anymore if this is the way, if the government

126
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 1: it doesn't exist, I mean, the binding administration and the

127
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,960
Speaker 1: environmentalists in the administration are trying to force.

128
00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 3: This to happen. And then so seventy one percent will

129
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 3: not buy an suv. So just that number alone, an

130
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 3: electric will not buy is not suv in EV. Why

131
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 3: as I saying SUV. People love SUV, but they will

132
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 3: not buy an EV.

133
00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: We're Americans, we're dibathing.

134
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, we all do anyway, So seventy one percent will

135
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:28,640
Speaker 3: not buy an EV, well, then that just they're not

136
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,560
Speaker 3: going to hit their targets. And then only twenty four

137
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:35,239
Speaker 3: percent would consider buying an EV. Not that they will,

138
00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 3: they would consider it, they would look at it. And

139
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,920
Speaker 3: then the other The same poll showed fifty six percent

140
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 3: of Michigander's opposed using tax money being spent to force

141
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 3: a transition. Now, of course, there's lots of ways that

142
00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 3: the government is spending our tax dollars on this transition.

143
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:53,880
Speaker 3: They're giving it to Chinese companies, which we've talked about

144
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 3: a lot. They're spending it on chargers, They're giving it

145
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 3: to the the car manufacturers, uh, they're they're spending it

146
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 3: on rebates to to you know, artificially lower the prices.

147
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 3: So there's all kinds of ways. But what the polling

148
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 3: is showing is that people don't What it all boils

149
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:17,040
Speaker 3: down to is people don't like the Biden Harris position

150
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 3: on evs, and Trump is smart to go after this,

151
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 3: and that's what he should continue to do. And so,

152
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 3: of course then the Michigan media says, well, maybe you know,

153
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 3: Harris and the Democrats should pump the brakes, which of

154
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 3: course is clever on you know, this transition. But they're not.

155
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,880
Speaker 3: And that's the point is they are not backing down.

156
00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,679
Speaker 1: And that's when I see people boohooing, Well a Kama

157
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 1: is getting all this attention. I'm like, stop boooing and

158
00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: tell people who she really is. And it's got to

159
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: be you know, obviously it helps for all of us

160
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 1: to talk every place we can, but it is unreasonable

161
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 1: that the MSNBC's and the cn ends up the world

162
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,800
Speaker 1: will not have conservative conservatives on. And that's why it

163
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: has to be in. It has to be going out there.

164
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: They people have to know what they're going to do.

165
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 1: And I think that you have to fully understand that

166
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 1: what you are used to in the lifestyle that you

167
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 1: have where you can just go out and choose, you

168
00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 1: can choose what coffee you want, you can choose what

169
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: phone you want, you can choose what car you want,

170
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 1: that is going to go away under people like this.

171
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,880
Speaker 1: And it is not an exaggeration. Now that you see

172
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: that this is happening with your stove, and oftentimes it

173
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 1: is the choice that you would have chosen over anything

174
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: else that they're getting rid of. Do you think that

175
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: these companies that are selling stoves sell more electric or

176
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: more gas? Everyone that cooks or enjoys cooking prefers cooking

177
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 1: on a gas stove. Everyone who drives prefers driving a

178
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: car that is going to go a distance, you know

179
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 1: if you, I mean, the last thing I want to

180
00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,959
Speaker 1: have happen is figure out that I've got to pick

181
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: kids up in travel and move them from sport to

182
00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: sport and realize that my car that was sitting in

183
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: the snow all day now doesn't have enough charge for

184
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,960
Speaker 1: me to get from one end of town to the other.

185
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 1: It's terrifying, and people I just don't want to deal

186
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 1: with that.

187
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,719
Speaker 2: Who wants to prolong a road trip. Let's say you're

188
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 2: doing a road trip and driving Great Michigan to Florida,

189
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 2: whatever it is. Who wants to say I'm going to

190
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 2: go to this rest drop and sit for another hour.

191
00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 2: Every time my kids say are we there yet? I

192
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 2: think I have the same question. Okay, no we're not.

193
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: And the last thing I want is to be like, no,

194
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,400
Speaker 1: now we have to stop for twenty more minutes.

195
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 3: Well, just think about the typical your typical day, and

196
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 3: maybe yesterday for me it was not a typical day.

197
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,719
Speaker 3: But I drove about three hundred and fifty miles, went

198
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 3: to a baseball game in Detroit, and you drive it

199
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,720
Speaker 3: was like about two hundred miles there, a little bit less.

200
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 3: And then if you realize, Okay, I'm not gonna be

201
00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 3: able to get home on the charge that I've got

202
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,719
Speaker 3: I have to charge when we're there. What if it's

203
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 3: not enough? What if I can't actually find a place.

204
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 3: We ended up leaving there about nine pm. It's about

205
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,959
Speaker 3: a three hour drive home, so we get home grown midnight.

206
00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,640
Speaker 3: But people this idea that you're all of a sudden

207
00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 3: just going to make this transition to EVS and it's

208
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 3: just going to be fine. Or what if that was

209
00:11:06,640 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 3: in the middle of the winter when it's you know,

210
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 3: ten degrees outside. They what the people in the administration,

211
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 3: what the environmentalists are trying to do, is completely impractical

212
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 3: and does not deal with real life, and it's just

213
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 3: not going to work.

214
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 2: That's the thing that is most interesting to me is

215
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 2: why is their strategy to mock because these are actually

216
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,880
Speaker 2: things that people deal with and think about every day.

217
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,359
Speaker 2: Same thing about the economic.

218
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: Issue, because it's the strategy to make government bigger and

219
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 1: without people realizing they're doing it. Let's take a quick

220
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: commercial break. We'll continue next on a Tutor Dixon podcast.

221
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,439
Speaker 1: I mean, look at this as in the Daily Caller,

222
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,440
Speaker 1: who's talking about this today? Outside of it being in

223
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: the Daily Caller, you have to be looking to find

224
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: out that Jennifer Granholm did this with stoves, that the

225
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,840
Speaker 1: rule actually passed and it is going into effect because

226
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: it's it's not on any of the big networks. This

227
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:06,400
Speaker 1: is when we say that these networks are apart an

228
00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 1: extension of the White House. It's not a lie, and

229
00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,680
Speaker 1: they are hiding what is happening in this country. But

230
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,120
Speaker 1: that's how you that's how if you go back generations

231
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,719
Speaker 1: and you look at other countries, how did the communists

232
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: take over? How did people get duped? It started with

233
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,839
Speaker 1: the media. The media turned. The media is no longer free,

234
00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: and you know they're no longer free because we've seen

235
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 1: the memos from the.

236
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:28,240
Speaker 2: White House say.

237
00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 1: I mean, this is why the guy at the press

238
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: conference the other day is like, are you going to

239
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 1: do anything to stop this. Elon Musk Trump interview. Who

240
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: whatever think ten years ago if somebody said that, people

241
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,200
Speaker 1: would go, what is this guy? Nuts?

242
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,079
Speaker 2: He's got to be fired. It seemed like a normal question,

243
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 2: isn't him? That was just a brief ringer oom question. Yeah,

244
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 2: no big deal. The other thing, so I think it

245
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 2: was MSNBC. I don't know if you saw yesterday had

246
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: a group of predominantly black women, but there was a

247
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 2: black woman on there weeping. Oh I know a date

248
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 2: of her finances. And here you have Kamala Harris. It's

249
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 2: supposed to come out this week with her economic plan.

250
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: They have duped people into believing that the situation they're

251
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: in right now is not a result of her, even

252
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 2: though Kamala is in office right now. But that's how

253
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 2: good these mainstream media folks are at manipulating you and

254
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 2: manipulating your mind. You can sit there and say, I'm

255
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 2: in a horrible situation right now, Kamala will take me

256
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 2: out of this.

257
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: I love the on day one I'll do this. I'm like,

258
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: what day is this for you? Right now?

259
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 2: I mean, what are what are you talking about?

260
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 1: Because no one believes that Joe Biden's stopping you from

261
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: doing anything. I mean, you could literally like untie his shoes,

262
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,160
Speaker 1: and he will get confused and follow over like what

263
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: are you? Why are you worried about this? I mean,

264
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 1: anybody who believes or I guess there's two schools up

265
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 1: to out here. If anybody who believes that she can't

266
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: talk to Joe Biden about what's going on, then they're

267
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: clearly not watching what's happening with Joe Biden. But if

268
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,120
Speaker 1: she can't, if there's that big of a barrier, who

269
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 1: is she? Who is her staff? Who is his staff? Like?

270
00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:04,520
Speaker 1: Who is controlling the country that the vice president has

271
00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 1: no say? But she was interviewed by Dana Bash about

272
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,920
Speaker 1: Afghanistan and she said, you were told, we were told

273
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,200
Speaker 1: you'd always be the last person in the room. What

274
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 1: about the decision of Afghanistan? She said, I was the

275
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:20,640
Speaker 1: last person in the room, and I think it went well.

276
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 1: I mean, she clearly has she's owning these things. She

277
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 1: needs to be forced to own them across the entire country.

278
00:14:28,680 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, but will she? I mean, look at what the

279
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 3: media is doing right now. She Time magazine put her

280
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 3: on the cover made Your Story, and she refused to

281
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 3: talk for the story. Then maybe you don't run the story.

282
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't put her on the cover, don't give

283
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 1: her that morey punishment.

284
00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:50,560
Speaker 2: If you don't talk, then you don't get the story.

285
00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,080
Speaker 2: Any other media outlet, I would not have given you

286
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: that cover in Machine. Oh, but a lot of reasons

287
00:14:58,640 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: for that.

288
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:04,680
Speaker 3: But and her communications director was on CNN I think

289
00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 3: on Wednesday, and there might have been Tuesday, and was

290
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,600
Speaker 3: actually challenged about when is she going to do a

291
00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,160
Speaker 3: press conference? And he talked about, Oh, we're so busy

292
00:15:13,240 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 3: doing you know, all these huge rallies, and you know,

293
00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 3: we're just too busy. And he actually said she's going

294
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,840
Speaker 3: to do a sit down interview before the end of

295
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:28,840
Speaker 3: the month. And I looked at my calendar and I went, oh,

296
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 3: it's the fourteenth, So in the next two weeks, she's

297
00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 3: going to do a sit down interview.

298
00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:36,240
Speaker 2: The thing I find it curious because I want to

299
00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,120
Speaker 2: know how long is the media going to hold out

300
00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,480
Speaker 2: for because usually the media will hold out for a

301
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: long time for Democrats. But at a certain point, you

302
00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,240
Speaker 2: do have to feed the beast. They need content, they

303
00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 2: need something to run, so they're going to have to

304
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,600
Speaker 2: start leaking on something like there is going to have

305
00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:52,800
Speaker 2: to be something that they that she gives them. Now,

306
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,880
Speaker 2: I've heard from people in DC that she's doing a

307
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 2: lot of off the record conversations with media. She goes

308
00:15:58,760 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 2: back on the plane.

309
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 1: That's that doesn't mean anything.

310
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 2: But they feel like they're getting at No, that's against thing.

311
00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 1: That is disgusting and it shouldn't be that way. I

312
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,520
Speaker 1: saw I think it was CNN interviewing some comms person

313
00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 1: on her team. It was a woman, and they said, well,

314
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 1: what's she doing today? And she said, oh, she's doing

315
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: these rallies. This was yesterday. I think she's doing these rallies.

316
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 1: She's doing all this stuff. And he was like, I

317
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:26,440
Speaker 1: looked at the Vice president's schedule. She's not doing any

318
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,840
Speaker 1: political events today, so why can't she come on here

319
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: and talk to us? And it was very awkward. So

320
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 1: maybe you're right, And I hope you are right. I

321
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,920
Speaker 1: hope that eventually they say enough is enough, you have

322
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: to talk. And I do think that people were mad

323
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 1: about the Elon interview, even on the Republican side, they're like, Eh,

324
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 1: when is this Dale? Well, it does a lot because

325
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 1: it shows that he can talk with one of the

326
00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: smartest men in the world and you can say what

327
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 1: you want. This man is incredibly and Elon Musk is

328
00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:58,880
Speaker 1: incredibly intelligent. And Donald Trump stayed right with him the

329
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: entire time and talk on every subject. She can't, and

330
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 1: it's if it's outside of her realm. Kyle, you and

331
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,000
Speaker 1: I were watching an interview from her of her in

332
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 1: like the nineties, I think, when she was an attorney,

333
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 1: and she was very smart on her own case. And

334
00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:22,440
Speaker 1: I thought that was so telling because she could talk normally,

335
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:25,320
Speaker 1: not laughing, not cackling, not like she didn't sound like

336
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:29,080
Speaker 1: she was out of her element at all, because she

337
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: fully understood the case, which tells me if she can't

338
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,119
Speaker 1: talk about world issues, she doesn't fully understand them because

339
00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 1: she is not an idiot. She just doesn't know. This

340
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 1: is not her area of expertise. And as an attorney,

341
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: she may be maybe a good attorney, or she may

342
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: be good at at debating her case, but as a leader,

343
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 1: she is terrible. And she wasn't chosen the first time

344
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 1: because of that, because it's very obvious. It also shows

345
00:17:53,800 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: me that what the last three years now, I guess

346
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: she's not.

347
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 2: Taken the time to study.

348
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,159
Speaker 1: Right, you're the vice president, But that's the thing. She

349
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 1: should not be out of her element. She's this understudy

350
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: to the president. Like something happens, and let's face it,

351
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 1: at any moment, this man could die. And I mean

352
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: I saw him on the beach the other day and

353
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: I was like, somebody should poke him. I'm not sure

354
00:18:15,560 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 1: he is alive.

355
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,639
Speaker 2: You know, he looks rough. I mean Ceespan had like

356
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 2: live cameras on him, almost.

357
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 1: Like it was like watching the end. It's like the

358
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:27,160
Speaker 1: Death Watch. It's terrible. But they lied to us about

359
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 1: his condition. It's been exposed. Now the question is is

360
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,359
Speaker 1: his condition as bad as now they're leading us to believe.

361
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,880
Speaker 1: We don't actually know. But because we believe it's pretty severe,

362
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 1: why doesn't she know what's happening in the world.

363
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 3: I think what's unfolding right now is the greatest switcheroo

364
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 3: in the history of American politics. And because they all knew,

365
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 3: you said they it was Harris, he was starting with

366
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 3: her on down. They all knew what he was like.

367
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 3: We could see him in public, just imagine what he

368
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 3: was like privately, And they knew and they could see

369
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 3: it every single day for themselves, and so they they

370
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 3: I believe they had this whole scheme cooked up, and

371
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 3: so as soon as the Republicans were done with their convention,

372
00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 3: this was going to go like lightning speed, and it did.

373
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 3: And so they've got this situation now where she basically is,

374
00:19:27,680 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 3: you know, they're sort of posturing her as this rock

375
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,480
Speaker 3: star and suddenly, you know, all of the goofy things

376
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,760
Speaker 3: that she said and done in the past is just

377
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 3: sort of doesn't exist anymore. And they're now holding her

378
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 3: up as she's like the second Obama and these all

379
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 3: these crazy things. And the we're talking about the media,

380
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 3: and the media is letting her get away with it

381
00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:54,159
Speaker 3: because she's refusing to talk to them, She's refusing to

382
00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,040
Speaker 3: go off the script. You know, people are criticizing her

383
00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,640
Speaker 3: because she's saying the same speech as you know, everywhere

384
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 3: she goes, which is not totally unusual. But the point

385
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 3: is she's highly scripted, and I think it's because they are.

386
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 3: They're in the middle of this switch rough and they're

387
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 3: trying to just keep it as tightly controlled as they

388
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,359
Speaker 3: possibly can to run out the clock. And the media

389
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 3: has a real role that they can play in trying

390
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 3: to disrupt that or at least be honest, maybe not

391
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 3: disrupted at least be honest with voters, and it remains

392
00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: to be seen if they're actually going to do that.

393
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 3: I don't think they will, but we'll see.

394
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:33,639
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick commercial break. We'll continue next on

395
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 1: a Tutor Dixon podcast. I think the real question is

396
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 1: how much power does White House staff have Because they

397
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,680
Speaker 1: didn't want a primary, they didn't want the option for

398
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: a primary, and so I believe that they also knew

399
00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:49,760
Speaker 1: she was very unlikable, but they could stay on her.

400
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 1: Staff believe they can stay with her, so they were

401
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,840
Speaker 1: going to champion her. They know her turnover rate and

402
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:59,400
Speaker 1: staff is ninety two percent. She is not liked by

403
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 1: the country. She is not liked by the people closest

404
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: to her. The people who work with her leave.

405
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 2: That is meaningful.

406
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 1: If the people who work for you wouldn't go back

407
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 1: to work for you again, it really means something. It's

408
00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 1: much higher than anybody else I think that's ever been

409
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,199
Speaker 1: in the Vice president or the President's office. And so

410
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 1: they have to create this whole facade of who she is,

411
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,400
Speaker 1: because the truth is, she's not liked by even her

412
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:24,440
Speaker 1: own staff.

413
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 2: At the end of the day, Nancy Pelosi's out there

414
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:31,199
Speaker 2: bragging about how she carried this out essentially, so you

415
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,280
Speaker 2: know there was a big plan here. Pelosi had an idea,

416
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 2: if there's one woman that you do not want to

417
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,920
Speaker 2: go up against. People can say what they want about her,

418
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,640
Speaker 2: but Nancy Pelosi is the one person that I would

419
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 2: never want to compete against because at the end of

420
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,160
Speaker 2: the day, she's going to win.

421
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, she has the dirt on everybody. I mean,

422
00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: the story that you hear is that Nancy Pelosi calls

423
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: you to her office and pulls out your file, and

424
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 1: I mean, I assume that there's some truth to that,

425
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 1: is that people sit down and she's like, this is

426
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:00,840
Speaker 1: what I've got on you. I don't think that that

427
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: was the case with Biden. I think it was just

428
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 1: we're gonna twenty fifth Amendment you like, you're we're going

429
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 1: to take you out one way or another, You're leaving.

430
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 1: I mean, it was not good he clearly. I mean

431
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 1: it's and that's pretty obviously noted that she went to

432
00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: him and was like, yeah, you're done well.

433
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 2: And they say, now that the relationship has fully soured,

434
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 2: so there's.

435
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 1: Been no right she's and she's sad about it, like, yes,

436
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 1: that's the funny thing. There's these interviews where she has

437
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: like this sad demeanor and people say, well, have you

438
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: she hadn't spoken to him since she admitted that last

439
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:35,400
Speaker 1: week or maybe was earlier.

440
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:37,960
Speaker 2: That's the only one that has Well.

441
00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:40,520
Speaker 1: Would you ever talk to these people? I mean, this

442
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 1: is the crazy part about politics. People are such backstabbers. Honestly,

443
00:22:44,680 --> 00:22:46,600
Speaker 1: when I came into this, because you know, this is

444
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: new to me, I was in the business world and

445
00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 1: then came to the media slash political world, and I

446
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,159
Speaker 1: remember when I first started in this, I was like,

447
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: I've never experienced the kind of hatred, the kind backstabbing.

448
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 1: Who wants to be involved in this world? And I

449
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:06,440
Speaker 1: think the reason that people stay is because they believe

450
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,800
Speaker 1: they can make it better, because it cannot continue on

451
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: this trajectory where you have a few people that have

452
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 1: power and they are using it for to make the

453
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 1: country worse rather than for personal not to make the

454
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: country worse. I think it's the personal power that has

455
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 1: taken over. I saw this thing, this meme today about

456
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: how Satan actually felt, and that was through pride, and

457
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,760
Speaker 1: that was like the first sin was that he wanted

458
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: to be the angel above all angels, and it was

459
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 1: pride that caused him to actually for God to say,

460
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: like you've you're not seeing the bigger picture here. And

461
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: then ultimately people now struggle with pride. And I mean,

462
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 1: it's so funny because when you look at Washington, you're like,

463
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess not funny, but it is interesting

464
00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,040
Speaker 1: when you look at Washington you think, man, pride is

465
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 1: strong among anybody elected. Well, I always called Washington Peter

466
00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:00,880
Speaker 1: Panland because I do think. I mean, you go there

467
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:04,880
Speaker 1: and it's it's just a totally different world than anywhere else.

468
00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 1: And that's also why I believe that politicians and most

469
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,840
Speaker 1: of this bureaucracy shouldn't be housed in DC, because you're

470
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:13,240
Speaker 1: living in a fantasy land that most people in America.

471
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,280
Speaker 2: Do not live in. But people go there. I think,

472
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,399
Speaker 2: I like to believe that most people go there with

473
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 2: the bust intentions. But it is you get intoxicated by

474
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 2: power by being around some of these institutions and by

475
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:27,000
Speaker 2: these leaders, and I think you can be very easily

476
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,280
Speaker 2: swayed into believing that you are the answer and you

477
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 2: are the one that continues on this path, and you

478
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 2: forget what you were there to do.

479
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: And if you are someone who has always won your races,

480
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: people like Covet that you know, they're like amazing. But

481
00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,919
Speaker 1: it was interesting when I was running. I remember sitting

482
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 1: down with someone and I had a very long meeting

483
00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,399
Speaker 1: with this guy and he's been in politics his entire

484
00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:51,359
Speaker 1: life and where it was very influential. And he said

485
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,080
Speaker 1: to me he was talking about when you when you

486
00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: run the next time, and I remember thinking, like, dude,

487
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:01,240
Speaker 1: when you lose this time and you run the next time,

488
00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:03,520
Speaker 1: I'm like, that's not a very positive message. And he

489
00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:07,360
Speaker 1: was like, the best leaders lose their first race, and

490
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 1: it was you know, at the time, you're like, well,

491
00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear that, like I don't want

492
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: to lose this race. But looking back on that, his

493
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,199
Speaker 1: point was you will be a better person if you

494
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,080
Speaker 1: don't go in there thinking you got it all right,

495
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: because you're not getting it all right, and most nobody's

496
00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,760
Speaker 1: getting it all right the first time. I mean, there

497
00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,640
Speaker 1: is luck in politics, there's timing, there's all of that.

498
00:25:30,160 --> 00:25:34,120
Speaker 1: But it was very interesting because after I lost, and

499
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,360
Speaker 1: then probably a month later, I was asked to go

500
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:40,119
Speaker 1: speak at an event and I remember talking to another

501
00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:42,879
Speaker 1: person and he said, well, you should go headline this,

502
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,320
Speaker 1: and I said, I just feel like I'm going in

503
00:25:45,359 --> 00:25:47,280
Speaker 1: there and I let all these people down, and I

504
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,040
Speaker 1: feel really bad about it. And he said, if you

505
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 1: had won this race, you would walk in there thinking

506
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,880
Speaker 1: you did everything right and never learn a thing. He said,

507
00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: but now you can go in there and tell them

508
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 1: everything that you learn, and you can make things better.

509
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:04,160
Speaker 1: I mean, and it's powerful. It is. It's certainly personally challenging,

510
00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 1: and you feel terrible. You feel like a failure, but

511
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 1: you also feel like you failed all these people. Like

512
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 1: personally you're like, oh wow, I suck, you know, and

513
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: then you feel like you hurt so many people. In Still,

514
00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 1: when I go to these events and people are like,

515
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: we need Michigan fixed, you feel tremendous guilt forever, you know.

516
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:26,000
Speaker 1: But it really is so true if you lose. I mean,

517
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: I don't know, I've never run again. But I think

518
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: you look at politics from a different perspective, and maybe

519
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: maybe we should analyze the difference between those who've lost

520
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: and those who have always won. I think people are

521
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,400
Speaker 1: drawn to humble leaders, and that's what we need more

522
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,359
Speaker 1: of in DC. I think everyone wants to believe that

523
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 1: they have all the answers to your point. They've won,

524
00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 1: they've been successful, they haven't needed the help of anyone else,

525
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: and that's what it'll be interesting. You brought up Kamala's

526
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: staff turnover rate. She has clearly made her way to

527
00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 1: DC by being the and all bee all. She doesn't

528
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 1: have staff that sticks around with her. Well, that really

529
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:07,399
Speaker 1: worked for her in the end. I fundamentally believe you

530
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,520
Speaker 1: need a group of people around you that you are

531
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: loyal and trustworthy in all of those things. Yeah, it

532
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 1: doesn't have any of it. No, I think that that

533
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 1: is I think that is really going to be a

534
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 1: telling part of this. And I wish that we could

535
00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: have some of those old staff members come out and

536
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,479
Speaker 1: tell us what is like on the inside. It seems

537
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,040
Speaker 1: like the Republicans always have people talking of school, like

538
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 1: you know, but where is The other side is very

539
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:36,199
Speaker 1: good at keeping that. But obviously something's happened because her

540
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 1: percentage is poor, So we'll see. I just think I

541
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:41,920
Speaker 1: think there's a lot of time left to go in

542
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 1: this race. Where it's August, anything can happen, very interesting

543
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,239
Speaker 1: things can happen. It's so tight right now, and I

544
00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 1: just think it's a really exciting time to be alive.

545
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 1: For all the people right now that are panicked and nervous.

546
00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,639
Speaker 1: I think it's a fascinating time to be alive and

547
00:27:56,680 --> 00:28:00,800
Speaker 1: a fascinating time to watch this. And you have I mean, hey,

548
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,320
Speaker 1: I hear if people say, oh, this person has an

549
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,760
Speaker 1: ego and that person has an ego, this is politics.

550
00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 1: You've got to go out there confidently, not pridefully, but confidently. Everybody.
