1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:01,040 Speaker 1: Welcome everybody. 2 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:05,120 Speaker 2: Wednesday edition of the Klay, Travis and Buck Sexton Show 3 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:08,720 Speaker 2: is kicking off right now, and let's. 4 00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: Just dive right into it. 5 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,000 Speaker 2: There's other stuff to talk about as well, but you know, 6 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 2: the inflation, the economy, the border. Biden throwing down the 7 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:21,000 Speaker 2: gauntlet very feebly, very. 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 1: Weak fashion. 9 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,720 Speaker 2: I would argue, he is saying that he wants two 10 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 2: debates with Donald Trump. So at least as of now, 11 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:38,599 Speaker 2: there does seem to be the likelihood of presidential debates. 12 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,320 Speaker 2: It is not a fete complie, It is not something 13 00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 2: that has already set in stone. There's negotiating happening, but 14 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:51,320 Speaker 2: this is the two prize fighters sizing each other up 15 00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 2: and looking at each other from across the ring. Joe 16 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: Biden stumbling as he does so. Here he is with 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 2: a video put out to try to antagonize the trump Ster. 18 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 3: Donald Trump lost two debates to me in twenty twenty 19 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,080 Speaker 3: cents that he hadn't shown up for debate. Now he's 20 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 3: acting like he wants to debate me again. Will make 21 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: my day, Pal. I'll even do it twice. So let's 22 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,480 Speaker 3: pick the dates. Donald, I hear you're free on Wednesdays. 23 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:19,480 Speaker 2: Little joke there at the end about how Trump is 24 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,199 Speaker 2: facing a criminal prosecution that we know has been aided 25 00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 2: and cheered on by Biden's doj so haha, weaponization of 26 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 2: government and the destruction of legal norms. But let's look 27 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 2: at what is offered here. The devil is in the details. 28 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 2: Clay Biden, first off, June and September very interesting. June 29 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: strikes me as very early. 30 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, go back. 31 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 2: June strikes me as very early, and I will get 32 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 2: into why that. 33 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 4: Well. 34 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,559 Speaker 2: I think it's obvious, right, they got to turn things around. 35 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 2: They've got to turn the momentum around. It's real. The 36 00:01:56,720 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: polls are speaking very clearly on this. But what Biden 37 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:03,680 Speaker 2: is saying is the follower his team. I should say, Clay, 38 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: we got the following provisos, no audience, no RFK junior, 39 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,079 Speaker 2: no Trump remarks during Biden's answers. 40 00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: I mean, everyone agrees to that, but people always interrupt each. 41 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: Other and the Biden leaning or Biden leading outlets of CBS, ABC, CNN, 42 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:31,240 Speaker 2: and Telemundo. So he's got a whole bunch of requirements 43 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 2: for this, and it's based on networks that hosted Republican 44 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: debates primary events in twenty sixteen and Democratic debates in 45 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. So, Clay, what do you make of it? 46 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: I mean, is it happening, is it posturing? What's the 47 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: biggest takeaway? I think it's desperation from Biden. The cut 48 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:51,800 Speaker 2: that you played. 49 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 5: People can't see the video, but I believe there were 50 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 5: five or six cuts in that twenty second video. And 51 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 5: for people out there who don't understand what that means, 52 00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 5: you and I are waiving right now at the video 53 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 5: feed of the Clay and Buck radio show. There will 54 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 5: not be a single cut that will occur for the 55 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,240 Speaker 5: entire three hour show. It's you and me sitting talking 56 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 5: and everybody can look directly at that camera. There isn't 57 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 5: a jump around, there's no edit, there's no teleprompter. This 58 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 5: is live, and there is no safety net, as you 59 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 5: can well tell, because sometimes we fall into the safety net, 60 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 5: but or fall where the safety net would be. But 61 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 5: Biden had to have several cuts there. So here's what 62 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 5: I think is going on. I think that there is 63 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 5: desperation inside of the Biden camp. 64 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: I think they. 65 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 5: Felt a small measure of uplift from Biden's performance at 66 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 5: the State of the Union when he didn't fall all 67 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 5: over his face. And I think wanting a debate to 68 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 5: take place on June twenty seven is about trying to 69 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 5: convince Democrats, Hey, Biden's going to be okay June twenty seventh, 70 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 5: nine pm Eastern on CNN. We know that that's going 71 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 5: to be a rigged referee. We don't know who the 72 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 5: moderator will be. The other one is going to be 73 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 5: in September Buck, So I think what they're trying to 74 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 5: do is they recognized it was awful for them if 75 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 5: they didn't debate, but they want to have the debates 76 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 5: as early as possible. So if they get them done 77 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 5: by September, then they can go run their campaign and 78 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 5: try to get their get out the vote campaign going 79 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 5: without having to worry about a disastrous October. I feel 80 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 5: like there's probably a couple of October surprises they've got 81 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 5: planned to try to drag down Trump. That would be 82 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,600 Speaker 5: my bet, And so they're trying to get the debates 83 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 5: put behind them. So the story arc changes. One happens 84 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,360 Speaker 5: in the middle of the summer when a lot of 85 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 5: people aren't paying attention. The other one happens in September 86 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 5: before a lot of people are paying attention. It's desperate 87 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 5: designed to kind of placate the donors, but also have 88 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 5: the limited impact of an actual campaign. That's my thought 89 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 5: on the strategy. 90 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,960 Speaker 2: So if my quick Google research here is correct, the 91 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: first twenty sixteen presidential debate was late September September twenty sixth, 92 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: at again twenty twenty, I'm not counting or not looking 93 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 2: at because COVID and I think you could argue that 94 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 2: was everything was very different than it would be in 95 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 2: a normal election year twenty sixteen, though the first presidential 96 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: debate was September twenty sixth. So point here is offering 97 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: to go in June is a move right, that's not 98 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 2: just a thing. There's a willingness to try to get 99 00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 2: this done a lot sooner than they would otherwise because 100 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 2: Biden is an incumbent who is trailing and they have 101 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 2: to stop that, and they figure, I think this is 102 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 2: their calculation, Clay. They can put Biden on the stage, 103 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 2: give him whatever they need to give him so that 104 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: he gets through the hour of the two hours, whatever 105 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 2: it is, and then all summer we hear Joe still 106 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 2: got it. He's you know, look what he did against 107 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: Trump on the stage, and I think that that is 108 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: the thing that they're trying to pull off, because otherwise 109 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 2: the numbers right now indicate that this is only going 110 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 2: in one direction, and it's toward a Trump victory. So 111 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 2: for an incumbent president to even think about debating in 112 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 2: June of the election year, I don't think there's any 113 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: way to see it other than what you said, which 114 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 2: is a desperation, a recognition that they're losing. 115 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:39,480 Speaker 1: You only would do this. 116 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 2: I mean the thing of if you were the president, 117 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 2: Clay and you were up by five points or ten 118 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 2: points nationally on the challenger, you'd be like, Yeah, I'm 119 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 2: gonna let the summer do its thing, and I'm gonna 120 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 2: come in in September and then I'm going to clean 121 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 2: your clock. Right, Yes, June June is I need to 122 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 2: get on that debate stage as soon as possible to 123 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: change the momentum. Here's the other thing I would point out, 124 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 2: we got a big steak dinner to me. The June 125 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 2: twenty seventh debate could also be about Biden having to 126 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: respond to donors who don't think he should be the guy, 127 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,679 Speaker 2: and so they want to do this June twenty seventh 128 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: to put things to rest before the Democrat convention in August, 129 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 2: and I would just put out there if Trump shows 130 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 2: up and cleans Biden's clock and whatever drug cocktail they're 131 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: firing up with Biden, whatever drug cocktail he has, doesn't 132 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 2: work like it has in the past. Remember, this will 133 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 2: theoretically be off teleprompter. And I do think all of 134 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: the debate parameters matter. Here a great deal. Who's the moderator? 135 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: How much time can you spend on the prompter? If 136 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: I'm the Biden team, I want like five minute opening 137 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: statements that my candidates can read directly off the prompter. 138 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 2: I want a five minute closing statement that my candidates 139 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: can read off the prompter. I probably want an hour 140 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: and a half debate instead of a two hour debate, 141 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: maybe even an hour debate. I want to whittle down 142 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 2: I want commercial breaks. I want to whittle down the 143 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 2: actual amount of time that my candidate has to be 144 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: standing there on the stage talking without any prompting. I 145 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: also want an ear piece where somebody might be able 146 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 2: to talk to him. I really think the details surrounding 147 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: how this debate is set up are a big deal. Now, 148 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 2: remember that we do know some of this and Trump 149 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 2: just tweeted out buck or sorry truth doubt. 150 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 5: We have the dates now. Trump has agreed to them, 151 00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 5: and he's asking for more debates. I don't think that 152 00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 5: Biden's team will give them. But we got June twenty seventh, 153 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 5: a Thursday in late June, in the middle of the summer, 154 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 5: that will be taking place in Atlanta. We don't know 155 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 5: about a studio audience. We don't know the moderator. The 156 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 5: other one will be on ABC News on September tenth. 157 00:08:56,640 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 5: So it's not only that it's in September, Buck, it's earlier. 158 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 5: The latest debate in this cycle is earlier than the 159 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 5: earliest debate has ever been in the Trump era. 160 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:09,839 Speaker 1: They're moving it up for sure. 161 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 2: This is Trump responding to Biden's challenge here of a 162 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 2: duel on the stage. This was on Hugh Hewitt's show. 163 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 2: This is cut to play it. 164 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 6: Oh absolutely, I've been trying to get you know, he's 165 00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 6: issuing it. I wonder whether or not he shows up, 166 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 6: because you know, he also challenges me to golf. So 167 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 6: I'm a very good golfer. He can't hit a ball 168 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 6: fifty yards he said, I'll give him three aside, but 169 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 6: he knows he'll never play. This is sort of like that, 170 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 6: I think, but I hope not, because I really think 171 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 6: he has the debate, he might as well get it 172 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 6: up with. Probably should do it early so that he can. 173 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 6: You know, he's not going to get any better. 174 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 2: I think it is true, he's not going to get 175 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 2: any better. But they've had to show their hand here 176 00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 2: a bit. There is no way anyone can see the 177 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 2: schedule of the debates as proposed to the Trump team 178 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 2: from Biden, and now it seems to be agreed upon, 179 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 2: at least in terms of the rough you know, the 180 00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 2: overall outline of things. You can't see this and think 181 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 2: anything other than Joe Biden is in a weak spot 182 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 2: for an incumbent president. Yes, especially an incumbent president it 183 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 2: was facing four criminal trials. An incumbent president, to Democrats say, 184 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 2: is the biggest threat to America since the Civil War, 185 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 2: a bigger threat than nine to eleven. I mean, they've 186 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,680 Speaker 2: said all this insane stuff a million times now, and 187 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 2: somehow it seems a majority of the country would rather 188 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 2: have that guy in charge than the guy who's currently 189 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 2: in charge. What does that tell you? You know, I 190 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: always wonder what the emotional fallout will be this day. 191 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 2: If Trump broke them by winning in twenty sixteen, what 192 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 2: happens after you're emotionally broken? 193 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. 194 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 5: Other thing that I would factor in is great question. 195 00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 5: The Hunter Biden trials theoretically are going to be taking 196 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 5: place when this debate happens on June twenty seventh. Is 197 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 5: a lot of talk about it. Hunter is scheduled for 198 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 5: the gun charge on the East Coast June third, and 199 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:11,439 Speaker 5: then I think it's something like June twentieth, Hunter is 200 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 5: scheduled on the tax charges. There's a big story out there. 201 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 5: We'll talk about it a little bit. Wonder how the 202 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 5: timing on this implicates that, and again there are a 203 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 5: lot of devil in the details. I would think, I'm 204 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 5: curious if you would agree we'll talk about it more 205 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,319 Speaker 5: that Trump probably wants a live audience. I would think 206 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 5: who they select as the moderator to kind of think 207 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 5: about this. If you know CNN's hosting it, who's the 208 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 5: best moderator? In your mind you know CNN, well, who 209 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 5: would be the fairest moderator that you could hope for 210 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 5: if you're Trump? Because remember a lot of times there's 211 00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 5: a rig job going on, and Biden gets protected, kind 212 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,079 Speaker 5: of like a ref. If he's in the corner getting pummeled, 213 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 5: the ref comes in and pulls Trump off. 214 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 2: I think this is funny because you have the guy 215 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: who's officially banned from CNN asking the guy who's de 216 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 2: facto bet yeah CNN about the CNN roster. 217 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 5: Oh gosh, the best think about it. We'll go to 218 00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 5: break here. It's a tease. We'll think about it during 219 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 5: the breakome while. 220 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 2: But I have a question for you that I want 221 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: to I want to I want to tease on top 222 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 2: of your teas here double and I want to do 223 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: double t. It is how would you advise Trump? And 224 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 2: we certainly know some of his top people listening to 225 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 2: the show, and we appreciate that. How will you advise Trump? 226 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 2: Because we know Trump has different speeds? Should he go 227 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 2: full Trump up there? There's I want to discuss that too, 228 00:12:28,640 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: because where how does he get maximum value out of 229 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 2: this opportunity to show the American people which of these 230 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 2: guys should really be running the country. Look, chances are 231 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,760 Speaker 2: you know somebody, maybe even you, who's fallen for an 232 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 2: online scan click the bogus link or had your identity stolen. 233 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 2: It's the worst feeling when you see credit card charges 234 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 2: that you didn't make, or worse alone taken out in 235 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: your name, than not knowing how to deal with it. 236 00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 2: That's why you need LifeLock.

Two 254 00:13:50,280 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 5: debates agreed to, at least the first of which would 255 00:13:54,559 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 5: happen very soon from now June twenty seven at nine 256 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 5: pm Eastern on CNN, the second debate September tenth, ABC. 257 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 5: Unprecedented early debate dates, especially the one in June, which 258 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 5: we have never seen the likes of before. That is 259 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 5: prior to both the Republican National Convention and the Democrat 260 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 5: National Convention. 261 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: And we are talking. 262 00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 5: About who would be the fairest given the fact that 263 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 5: CNN is clearly going to be biased against Trump, of 264 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 5: the potential debate moderators, Buck, you had a good idea 265 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 5: that I'm. 266 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 1: Going to build on here. You said something that I 267 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:40,200 Speaker 1: think is true. 268 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,920 Speaker 5: Instead of giving the debate to a particular network, every 269 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 5: news station should be able to simulcast the debate CNN, MSNBC, 270 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 5: Fox News, ABCNBCCBS if they would like, every single network, 271 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 5: much like they cover the State of the Union or frankly, 272 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 5: Election Night, should be able to have have their own 273 00:15:00,840 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 5: programming put it on for everybody to watch, get the 274 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 5: biggest possible audience YouTube Twitter. 275 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: Ever, I agree, I. 276 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 5: Think that's a really really good idea instead of giving 277 00:15:09,120 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 5: it to a network. 278 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: I would build on it this. 279 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 5: Way if we truly wanted to have the fairest possible moderators. 280 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 5: In that construct, I think that Fox News should pick 281 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 5: a moderator, and I think that MSNBC should pick a moderator, 282 00:15:24,080 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 5: and every question from MSNBC should go to Trump. That is, 283 00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 5: they're not allowed to question Biden, and every question from 284 00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 5: Fox News should go to Biden. And that way you 285 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 5: would have the perceived right and the perceived left, each 286 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 5: having their moderator asking questions of the person on the 287 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 5: opposite side of the political spectrum from them. Would it 288 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 5: be super fair, I don't know, but it would at 289 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 5: least give the impromoture of I think, the fairest possible 290 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 5: degree of questioning, because it would be, on its face, 291 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 5: potentially antagonistic in nature. Biden's not going to sit for 292 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 5: a Fox News interview. I don't even think MSNBC would 293 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 5: let Trump sit for an MSNBC interview if he wanted to. 294 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 5: I think that would be the fairest way to set 295 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:12,320 Speaker 5: it up. 296 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 2: No, MSNBC couldn't let Trump in the building, or they 297 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: would go bankrupt paying for all the therapy for their 298 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 2: employees afterwards, so we know that's. 299 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: Not going to fly. 300 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 2: I think that the old format, Remember, presidential debates are 301 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 2: a relatively new phenomenon because a lot of us have 302 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 2: never lived in an era where there weren't presidential debates 303 00:16:31,480 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 2: like this that are televised. We just assume this is 304 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 2: part of the whole day. You know, we were a 305 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,880 Speaker 2: republic having elections for a long time before there were 306 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 2: debates on TV, before there were TVs. Even so there's 307 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 2: no reason why we shouldn't be able to adjust this 308 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 2: format for the digital era. I think, you know, the 309 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 2: Elon Ron De Santis primary launch was suboptimal, so maybe 310 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:00,480 Speaker 2: there's a little less a focus on doing things digitally 311 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 2: than there would have been otherwise. But I think that 312 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 2: this should be treated exactly like we talked about, like 313 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 2: a State of the Union address. It should just be 314 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,920 Speaker 2: considered effectively property of the public, to be distributed on 315 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,880 Speaker 2: platforms as they see fit and to monetize as they can. 316 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 2: Because there's also inherent favoritism in all of this, right 317 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 2: in the digital era, deciding to give it to ABC 318 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:29,639 Speaker 2: and not NPR is giving ABC tens of millions of 319 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 2: dollars of publicity. 320 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. 321 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,760 Speaker 5: I mean they sell ads. I think all the programming 322 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 5: on Shoulder programming. You're right, it effectively is a donation 323 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 5: to the business of that network. I mean, CNN's biggest 324 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 5: audience this year, by far, will be this September twenty 325 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 5: seventh debate. I agree with you one hundred percent. I 326 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 5: think that every network should be able to cover the debate, 327 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 5: and it should be broadcast as widely as possible. 328 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 1: I think that is fairer, and. 329 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 2: Obviously you should all be not just fair use it 330 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 2: should be you could stream do anything you want with 331 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 2: it afterwards. And there's no question. This isn't the oscars, right, 332 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:10,000 Speaker 2: It's not. You have twenty four hours, then you can 333 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,760 Speaker 2: it's the state of the Union. Yeah, it's to be 334 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,560 Speaker 2: treated like the state of the Union. So I the 335 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 2: other part of this is Republicans need to learn the lesson. 336 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 2: You know, there have been people who have used their 337 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 2: used their influence. These networks have put their thumb on 338 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 2: the scale for Democrats in the past in ways that 339 00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 2: may well have been significant. I mean, I do think 340 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: that the single most significant debate. 341 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:33,879 Speaker 1: Cheating isn't the right. 342 00:18:33,760 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 2: Word, but you know, pushing for one side was when 343 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:40,639 Speaker 2: Kendy Crowley backed Obama up and she was she was wrong, 344 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 2: And there was this whole game about Barack Obama and 345 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:47,120 Speaker 2: whether he said when he was up against Mit Romney 346 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 2: that it was an active terror in Benghazi on September eleventh. 347 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: So we've already been burned on this. I don't know 348 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 2: why we think that we have to stick with the 349 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,879 Speaker 2: traditions of the past, but looks like they're going to 350 00:18:58,920 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 2: do it. You want to get to some of these 351 00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,199 Speaker 2: as a lot of opinions on this. When we got 352 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 2: to let's see, uh, Bob in wait, really in Moscow, Russia, 353 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,959 Speaker 2: not Moscow, Idaho, Moscow, Russia. 354 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:14,879 Speaker 1: What's going on? Bob? 355 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 4: Right? 356 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 8: Hey, yes, I'm stationed in Moscow, Russia. But President Trump 357 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 8: has to pull the rope of DOPA technique by Mohammad 358 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 8: Ali in the first debate. He has to sit back there, 359 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 8: take every punch, smile, don't overreact, don't react because this 360 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 8: will frustrate Biden and the Democrats. The reason is they're 361 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 8: using this debate to decide if they're going to change 362 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 8: the candidate Biden for someone else. 363 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: I agree with you. 364 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 5: I think this is significant and I don't know how 365 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 5: many other people are gonna say it. I don't think 366 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 5: you're going to sign on to it, Buck, I don't know. 367 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 5: I don't know that I agree about the way Trump 368 00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 5: should approach it. The only reason why to me, there 369 00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,159 Speaker 5: would be a June debate before the Republican primary and 370 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 5: before the Democrat primary is because there's a lot of 371 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 5: nervousness about Biden's performance, and this is designed for him 372 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 5: to come out and say I'm the guy. Look at 373 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 5: what great fighting for my men. Trump's got no shot 374 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:19,640 Speaker 5: against me, and if he bombs, I think the pressure 375 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 5: would get ratcheted up in a hurry that Biden doesn't 376 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:24,880 Speaker 5: have the mental and physical ability to do this. 377 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 1: You buy that or no? 378 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 2: Wait, so are we trying to say now that the 379 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 2: debates are part of the grand scheme to replace Biden 380 00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 2: with Michelle Obama at the convention. 381 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:40,840 Speaker 5: There's a grand scheme. To me, there's no reason for 382 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 5: a June debate before the Republican convention and significantly before 383 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 5: the Democrat convention if you one hundred percent believe your. 384 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 1: Guy is the guy. 385 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 5: I think, much like the State of the Union, this 386 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 5: is a show me moment for Joe Biden. They Democrats 387 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 5: want to see that he's able to do this. And 388 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 5: if he is, then they look at it and they say, okay, 389 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 5: we've only got to go out one more time September tenth. 390 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 5: And but if he's not, then you look at it 391 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 5: and say, okay, it's time to pull the plug, and 392 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 5: that it gives them time to do it, to open 393 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:17,120 Speaker 5: up the convention. 394 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: I mean, why else, I mean, just just think about. 395 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:25,199 Speaker 2: It, because he's losing, and he can't go into the 396 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 2: summer with the current trends as they are, because you're 397 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 2: going to be heading into Remember he's the incumbent, he 398 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 2: should be. 399 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 1: If he were. 400 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 2: Only two or three points ahead of Trump, we'd be saying, 401 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 2: oh wow, these are not going. Yeah, he's behind, and 402 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,359 Speaker 2: effectively all but maybe one swing state at this point 403 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 2: is a far ward. It's bizarre for us because we've 404 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: never had this. We've never been saying, hold on, is 405 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 2: Trump being treated too well by the polls or you know, 406 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 2: we've never been in this position before. They have to 407 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,800 Speaker 2: turn the momentum around before we get into the thick 408 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 2: of the election cycle, because you know, it's like running 409 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 2: into the fourth quarter. If you're behind by too much, 410 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,360 Speaker 2: you can't make up the difference. Okay, I don't disagree 411 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 2: with that. My problem with that is June. What is 412 00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 2: the date here, June twenty seventh, seventh, Yeah, is only. 413 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 5: A couple of weeks before the Republican Convention. So whatever 414 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:22,919 Speaker 5: happens on June twenty seventh is, first of all, it's 415 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 5: the middle of the summer. Second, it's going to get 416 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 5: drowned out within like ten or twelve days by the 417 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 5: huge Republican convention and the fact that Trump, theoretically, as 418 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 5: he told this yesterday, is going to be announcing his 419 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 5: vice president. 420 00:22:36,240 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: So even if. 421 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 5: Biden came out on June twenty seventh and looked like 422 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 5: the greatest debater since Lincoln Douglas debates back in you know, 423 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 5: eighteen fifty six, I think even if that were to occur, 424 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:55,640 Speaker 5: then he still would not be able to have much 425 00:22:55,760 --> 00:23:00,080 Speaker 5: lasting impact. To me, this is a prove it to 426 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 5: us moment, because if you replace Biden, then there's only 427 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 5: one debate for Michelle Obama or Gavin Newsome or whomever 428 00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 5: the other candidate would be, and you're just trying to run, 429 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 5: you know, sort of the maybe they ask for more 430 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 5: debates than I don't know, but the June twenty seventh debate, 431 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 5: it's ominous for me, for Joe Biden, it just doesn't 432 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 5: add up. 433 00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 1: Well. 434 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 2: It's it's definitely not happening because things are going so 435 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 2: well for them. That's correction. We agree on that. Let's 436 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 2: do Dean in Florida. Dean's got he's got a suggestion 437 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 2: here for the debates. 438 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: What's up, Dean. 439 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 8: So here's my idea, guys. 440 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 9: I say each president ficks his own moderator, one each 441 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 9: like Tucker her callers, Techer Carlson would be a great 442 00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 9: for Trump, and then whoever Biden wants, they both get 443 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 9: answered the same question from each moderator to answer it. 444 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 9: They press on back and forth, back and forth, like 445 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 9: a duel, and then at the no teleprompters, no earbuds, 446 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 9: no holds barred, you get two hours. 447 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 5: I don't I don't dislike that idea. It's kind of 448 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 5: like a second in a duel. You get to pick 449 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 5: your guy who's going to be there to help you 450 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 5: in the duel. I don't think they would go for 451 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 5: it because I think the Biden team would say, oh 452 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 5: my goodness, who's Trump going to pick? And I think 453 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 5: probably Biden would pick who would be picked Rachel Maddow. 454 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:25,880 Speaker 5: Rachel Maddow Tucker potentially would be I think really great 455 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,639 Speaker 5: riveting television. I also think you get honest answers that 456 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 5: would eliminate this is my argument on Fox News should 457 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,320 Speaker 5: pick someone, in MSNBCC should pick one, and they should 458 00:24:34,359 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 5: only ask the opposing party. In theory, I think that 459 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,280 Speaker 5: would at least address the moderation and try to balance 460 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 5: it out to give us a fairer content. 461 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 2: The other way you could do this would be to 462 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 2: really make it very fair but very sterile. And the 463 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:54,199 Speaker 2: way to do that would be a moderator who uh, 464 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 2: they're they're going to propose, They're going to let them 465 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 2: know what the topics, maybe even the questions are openly, 466 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 2: let them know what they are in advance, and then 467 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 2: really just allow dueling monologues where you have sixty seconds 468 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 2: and the other person's mic is cut and then you 469 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,040 Speaker 2: have sixty seconds. I mean, you know, you could construct 470 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,120 Speaker 2: something that would be truly equal time and that would 471 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,480 Speaker 2: be truly unslanted by the moderators, But I don't think 472 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,080 Speaker 2: it would be good TV. And that's the other challenge 473 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 2: of this. As long as there's an interest in making 474 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 2: it good TV for ratings purposes, because there's millions of 475 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 2: dollars of revenue attached to this, you know, and also 476 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 2: the branding for the network. I mean having your host. Look, 477 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 2: I'll say it right now. If they offered to have 478 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 2: Clay and I do the moderation, we would do it 479 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,359 Speaker 2: because it's obviously great branding for your show or your 480 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 2: your platform, whatever it is to do it. As long 481 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:50,439 Speaker 2: as that's the case, the incentives are not to have 482 00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 2: it be truly fair. The incentives are to have it 483 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:58,640 Speaker 2: be the best TV you can create. One more idea here, 484 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 2: as we go to break a mote with piranhas in it. 485 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. I love that. 486 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 5: I think Trump should demand drug testing. I don't even 487 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 5: know what the drug testing could reveal. I'm not I mean, 488 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 5: I don't think Trump or Biden are doing coke or 489 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 5: you know, like using hard drugs. 490 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: Joe Biden's taking steroids. Take a little trend on the side. 491 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 2: He's got some got some tea, some Exhaustina's testosterone he's taken. 492 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 5: I'm just saying I would love to see the drug 493 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 5: test results. I think it would be funny for it 494 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 5: for Trump to say it, like, just come out and 495 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 5: say they're shooting Biden up with something horse tranquilizer. 496 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,840 Speaker 1: I don't know what they're putting in.

Carrie, we got a lot to hit run 557 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 5: through with you, but let's start here. I know that 558 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 5: it is a national presidential election that's underway, but when 559 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 5: you hear Biden want to debate on June twenty seventh 560 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 5: and on September tenth. What do you think that debate 561 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 5: will be like for Trump and Biden? And what does 562 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 5: it tell you that Biden wants debates so soon? Your state, 563 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:46,760 Speaker 5: Arizona is a battleground state. How is the national election 564 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 5: playing and how do you think all that will implicate 565 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:49,960 Speaker 5: your race? 566 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:53,960 Speaker 4: Oh, I'm really excited to watch these debates. I mean, 567 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,080 Speaker 4: it's gonna be musty TV. It's interesting. You know, he 568 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 4: acted like mister tough guy in this video, but when 569 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 4: you reach this small print, he's got a lot of 570 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 4: requirements for that debate. No crowds, because I'm sure he 571 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 4: knows he's been boot off the stage by just everyday 572 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 4: average Americans, you know, even Democrats. I'm out in the field, 573 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 4: I'm out campaigning right now, and I'm going to town, 574 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 4: and the crowds are increasingly growing with Democrats who are 575 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 4: attending to hear what I have to say about turning 576 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 4: Arizona around and helping our country. They are set up 577 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:30,920 Speaker 4: the sky high Inflation's affecting them just as it's affecting Republicans. 578 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 4: So I think he's afraid of even Democrat voters at 579 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 4: this point. But it's going to be great. President Trump, 580 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 4: no matter what the requirements Joe Biden puts on, will 581 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 4: win this debate. I'm putting all my money on President Trump, 582 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 4: and I think the rest of this country is as well. 583 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 2: Hey, Kerry, thanks, thanks for being here with us. The 584 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: way they're structuring this, let's assume that Trump more or 585 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 2: less agrees to the laundry list of things that Biden wants. 586 00:30:58,360 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 2: You were as certainly people in Area Zona now I 587 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 2: think a lot of other folks now have come to 588 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 2: know this as well. About you a TV news anchor 589 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 2: for decades, right, so you've you've been in the media 590 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 2: game for a long time before you were running for 591 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 2: politics on political office. What do you think the best 592 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 2: way is that this should be structured. Is there even 593 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: a moderator that you think would be acceptable to both 594 00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 2: sides that would work in this case? How do you 595 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 2: break that down? 596 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 4: It's gonna be tough because you know, so many people 597 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 4: are if you say one nice thing about President Trump, 598 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 4: they say, oh, you're maga and you're not fair anymore. 599 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 4: But I think there are moderators who could. I've done debates, 600 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 4: I've moderated debates and forums before, and you know, you 601 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 4: have to check your beliefs and your views to the 602 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 4: side and just be fair. And I think there's a 603 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 4: lot of people right now who could do that. You know, 604 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,680 Speaker 4: Joe Rogan would be great. You can't say Joe Rogan 605 00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:54,560 Speaker 4: is a Republican or a Democrat. I think he's truly independent. 606 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 4: Scott Adams. I can think John Solomon is a true 607 00:31:58,080 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 4: journalist out there. Maria Bartiro, she would be great because 608 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 4: she understands the economy, you know, and all of the 609 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 4: questions that are going to be based on the economy. 610 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 4: You need to have someone who truly understands what they're 611 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 4: talking about. 612 00:32:12,920 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 1: By by the way, breaking news. 613 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 4: I think we should have a live audience, absolutely, and 614 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 4: maybe even take some questions from the audience. 615 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any doubt at all. By the way, Carrie, 616 00:32:22,720 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 1: this just came from Trump. 617 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 5: He says he wants Biden to debate him on Fox 618 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 5: News Wednesday, October two, twenty twenty four. Host would be 619 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 5: Brett Behar and Martha McCollum. That's interesting, So that literally 620 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 5: just came down from Trump. All right, let's go to Arizona, 621 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 5: New York Times. Ciena Polling, I'm sure you get all 622 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:47,000 Speaker 5: sorts of polls that are currently underway in Arizona showed 623 00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 5: Trump opening up a substantial. 624 00:32:49,040 --> 00:32:50,400 Speaker 1: Lead in Arizona. 625 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 5: You are in a super tight race with Ruben Diego, 626 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:57,280 Speaker 5: your opponent out there. Do you think Trump is winning 627 00:32:57,480 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 5: Arizona right now? First part of this question, like the 628 00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:04,239 Speaker 5: New York Times Siena poll showed, and what makes you 629 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 5: think that you can catch Ruben to the extent you're 630 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 5: behind or do you think you're up right now based 631 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 5: on what you see polling data wise? 632 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 4: Well, I saw that poll and I had a meeting 633 00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:18,720 Speaker 4: yesterday with my polster, and we're really happy with that poll. 634 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:21,840 Speaker 4: First of all, when you look at the fine print 635 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 4: in that pole, they underrepresented Republicans, even though Republicans have 636 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 4: a large edge over Democrats. So when you rewait that 637 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 4: poll with what the actual voters are and what they 638 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,040 Speaker 4: the turnout will be here in Arizona, we're actually up 639 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 4: or tied. But regardless of how you look at it, 640 00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:41,280 Speaker 4: we're right there in the margin of era. It's going 641 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 4: to be close. President Trump, I believe is up bigger 642 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 4: than what the New York Times poll says. He's up. 643 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,440 Speaker 4: I'm on the streets of Arizona every day, and you've 644 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,480 Speaker 4: got to remember, you know, Ruben Diego, my radical far 645 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 4: left Chicago Democrat frankly marks this opponent. He just spent 646 00:33:58,360 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 4: seven million dollars and carpet bomb the airways with a 647 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 4: bunch of bogus ads trying to paint him as a 648 00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 4: moderate when he is the most radical Democrat to ever 649 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 4: run in the state of Arizona and possibly in the country. 650 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 4: He actually makes Elizabeth Warren an AOC, look almost moderate. 651 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 4: He just spent seven million dollars and did not see 652 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 4: a bump in the polls. They are in panic mode. 653 00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 4: They just announced they're going to put twenty million more 654 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,120 Speaker 4: in ads. Listen if they want to flush money down 655 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 4: the toilet and run a bunch of ads. People are 656 00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 4: awake to who Reuben Diego is. He's voted for the 657 00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 4: open border policies. He's pro sanctuary city. He marched and 658 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 4: defund the police rallies. He has voted in one hundred 659 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 4: percent in lockstep with Joe Biden. He's the reason we're 660 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 4: seeing the high inflation rates. He's the reason we're seeing 661 00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 4: crisis that we can't even afford. It's because he has 662 00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 4: pushed these disastrous, dead end policies that Joe Biden is pushing. 663 00:34:51,960 --> 00:34:55,000 Speaker 4: The scary thing is he's a Biden mini me when 664 00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,239 Speaker 4: it comes to policy, but he's forty years younger. So 665 00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,640 Speaker 4: if we don't stop him right now, we're going to 666 00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 4: have a guy who, for forty years can bring a 667 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,720 Speaker 4: reign of terror on this country if he is elected 668 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 4: into the US Senate. And that's why we all have 669 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 4: to get out, get registered to vote, start talking to 670 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 4: our neighbors, make sure they're registered to vote. Nobody can 671 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 4: afford to sit home this next election. I feel confident 672 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 4: that President Trump will win and sweep Arizona, and I 673 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 4: feel confident that I will win. He has endorsed me. 674 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 4: He wants me to help him out when I get 675 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 4: to the US Senate and getting his America First agenda 676 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:28,680 Speaker 4: pushed through. 677 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 1: So we're talking to. 678 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:32,799 Speaker 2: Kerry Lake, she's running for a critical Senate seat in 679 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 2: Arizona carry. I'm just wanting you mentioned some of the 680 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 2: big ticket items, if you will, things like the border, inflation, 681 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 2: the economy, those are all trending against Biden and all 682 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 2: the Democrats who go along with him, like Diegos, your 683 00:35:46,719 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 2: opponent in this race. What about the campus protests and 684 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:56,040 Speaker 2: the Biden administrations knifing Israel in the back. Is that 685 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:58,879 Speaker 2: nationally we know that has some real implications. We're seeing 686 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 2: it planned in Michigan. Does it have any implications as 687 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,360 Speaker 2: you can see it in Arizona, whether it's the protests, 688 00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 2: a law, or the foreign policy disasters? 689 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 4: Oh boy, hot, every I mean, it just shows he's 690 00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 4: showing our allies that we don't stand by them, and 691 00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:15,360 Speaker 4: it's going to make things worse for us when it 692 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 4: comes to foreign policy. Right now, you know, Biden is 693 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:21,480 Speaker 4: a laughing stock that nobody respects them, nobody fears him. 694 00:36:21,520 --> 00:36:24,239 Speaker 4: We used to have peace through strength, Now we have 695 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 4: war through weakness, and so on the foreign policy side, 696 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 4: it's been disastrous. But let me tell you what I'm 697 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 4: seeing on the ground. We've been going to college campuses. 698 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 4: This young group of people that are in college right 699 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,799 Speaker 4: now about ready to graduate, are waking up to the 700 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:42,360 Speaker 4: fact that Joe Biden not only is he not cool, 701 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 4: his policies are killing them. And they're waking up and 702 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:48,600 Speaker 4: realizing that we have to get back to a strong 703 00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,920 Speaker 4: economy as they get ready to go into the workforce. 704 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,520 Speaker 4: You know, the unemployment numbers that Biden released, I think 705 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 4: it was three point four percent unemployment, but when you 706 00:36:56,640 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 4: look closer for young people eighteen to forty nine, it's 707 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 4: eleven point one percent unemployment. They also recognize that the 708 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 4: things that they used to buy four or five years 709 00:37:07,120 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 4: ago are in some cases more than twice as much 710 00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,399 Speaker 4: money right now. So they're looking at themselves entering into 711 00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 4: a job market that's very shaky for them, not being 712 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:20,759 Speaker 4: able to afford the basic necessities, not being able to 713 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 4: afford rent, and they are very quickly becoming America First Republicans. 714 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 4: So and plus they're watching all of that chaos on 715 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 4: the campus, which they're finding out is funded by a 716 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 4: bunch of people who fund the Democrats and Joe Biden 717 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 4: and my opponent Ruben Gyego, the people funding all of 718 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 4: that chaos tearing their campus apart, are behind people like Biden, 719 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 4: Ruben Gego and other leftists who are destroying our country. 720 00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:49,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, I saw the Arizona State freck. Guys. 721 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 5: I'm sure you saw that video cleaning up the mess 722 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:55,560 Speaker 5: from the Palestinian protesters, and it went super viral and 723 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,760 Speaker 5: I loved it as we saw a lot of people 724 00:37:57,800 --> 00:37:59,280 Speaker 5: on campus standing up to them. 725 00:37:59,200 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: Question for you. 726 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:04,839 Speaker 5: Abortion has been a mess all over the country, in 727 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:10,640 Speaker 5: particular focused in Arizona eighteen sixty four law. The Arizona 728 00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 5: Supreme Court involved the state legislature of both the House 729 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 5: and the Senate. I believe have addressed this. What is 730 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 5: going on there? How much of an issue do you believe, 731 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 5: not only statewide but also for the national election, given 732 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,320 Speaker 5: how close it's going to be there is abortion going 733 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 5: to play? What are you hearing on the ground and 734 00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 5: what's the situation likely to be by the time people 735 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 5: start headed to the polls. 736 00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 4: Well, I think the Democrats want to make that their issue, 737 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 4: But the real fact of the matter is when people 738 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,279 Speaker 4: can't afford groceries, when people can't afford gasoline, when they're 739 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 4: being evicted from their apartment because they can't afford the 740 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 4: rent anymore. When we're watching as twelve million people pour 741 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 4: across their border and drive down wages because it's cheap labor, 742 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 4: and we have to put the bill for putting them 743 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 4: up in housing them services, I think that it takes 744 00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,280 Speaker 4: a back burner. It really is on the back burner. 745 00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:05,360 Speaker 4: Were back to the law that we had for several years, 746 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:09,279 Speaker 4: the fifteen week law. It was approved and voted in 747 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,839 Speaker 4: by both Republicans and Democrats, and a Republican governor signed 748 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 4: it into law. That is our current law in Arizona, 749 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,320 Speaker 4: and I believe people when they get to the polls 750 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 4: will decide on that. We will have the choice between 751 00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,839 Speaker 4: the fifteen week law and a planned parents who voter 752 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 4: initiative that will pretty much legalize abortion right up until birth. 753 00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 4: So I agree with President Trump. It's going to be 754 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 4: up to the states. The people of Arizona will decide 755 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,720 Speaker 4: which law they want, and I'm running for US Senate, 756 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 4: so this is now in the hands of the state. 757 00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,480 Speaker 4: But I will tell you this as a US Senator, 758 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 4: I will never vote to approve federal funding to support abortion. 759 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 4: I will also never vote for a federal abortion ban. 760 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,279 Speaker 4: I agree with the Supreme Court it should be left 761 00:39:52,360 --> 00:39:54,400 Speaker 4: up to the states. But what I do want to 762 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 4: see guys, is that we work with pro family legislation 763 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,839 Speaker 4: to encourage families. Watch our population growth. It's going way down. 764 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 4: We're actually going to be at a critical point if 765 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 4: we don't start growing families and having babies in this country, 766 00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 4: and so I want to push good pro family laws. 767 00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 4: In Hungary, I had a chance to visit with Victor 768 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 4: Orbon about a year ago, and I noticed that they 769 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 4: had cut their abortion rate in half, nearly in half, 770 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,120 Speaker 4: and they never changed a single law. They did it 771 00:40:25,200 --> 00:40:29,520 Speaker 4: through pro family legislation to encourage people to start a 772 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:33,680 Speaker 4: family and grow their family. And you know this, just 773 00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 4: as I do, that the country is only as strong 774 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:40,080 Speaker 4: as our most important institution, and that institution is the family. 775 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,520 Speaker 4: And right now the foundation of our families is pretty shaky, 776 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 4: and we need to do something to change that. And 777 00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:48,000 Speaker 4: I'll be the most pro family senator in the US. 778 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:50,840 Speaker 2: Senate Kerry Lake running for Senate Carrie. We're going to 779 00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 2: keep talking to you. Is this guy's closer and this 780 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 2: audience is going to help out. So thank you for 781 00:40:54,520 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 2: being with us. 782 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,320 Speaker 4: Thank you visit Terrylake dot com and support our campaign. 783 00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 4: We're going to bring about some good American first policies 784 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 4: to turn this Biden nightmare around. 785 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:05,719 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 786 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 2: You know, Carrie was just talking to us about the 787 00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:12,680 Speaker 2: family and expanding the American family by having more and 788 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 2: more children, and how in other places even they figured 789 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 2: out ways to save many lives. She talked about a 790 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,879 Speaker 2: voluntary drop in the number of abortions in Hungary, about 791 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,120 Speaker 2: fifty percent. This is the battle that we're in here 792 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 2: in this country right now as well. Abortion is not 793 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 2: illegal in a majority of states, nowhere near it. In fact, 794 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 2: a lot of states have had an increase in abortions 795 00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 2: post Row v. 796 00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 1: Wade's end. 797 00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 2: So there's something that can be done about it to 798 00:41:40,680 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 2: save lives. Right now. We can continue to have this 799 00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 2: national conversation, continue to push for legislation at the state level, 800 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 2: and we will. But every day there are lives being 801 00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 2: lost that could be saved, and that's where Preborn comes in. 802 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 2: Preborn is the largest pro life nonprofit organization in the country, 803 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 2: providing resources to that women who are making that decision 804 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:04,840 Speaker 2: of whether or not to give life to the tiny 805 00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 2: baby growing inside their womb. It's hard to imagine deciding 806 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:10,920 Speaker 2: about the life or death of an unborn child, but 807 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 2: that is the decision that Preborn wants to help guide 808 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 2: these mothers on and the way they do this, the 809 00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:20,200 Speaker 2: way they started out, is just by creating the connection 810 00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 2: of mother to child with an ultrasound.

He was speaking 839 00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:16,800 Speaker 5: at a recent event, a Catholic graduation for a college 840 00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:21,520 Speaker 5: and he talked about women and the idea of being 841 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 5: homemakers based on his own success in life. It has 842 00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:29,640 Speaker 5: blown up into a major controversy. Buck has not heard it. 843 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:31,720 Speaker 5: Let's play cut twenty nine. 844 00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 10: I want to speak directly to you briefly because I 845 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 10: think it is you, the women who have had the 846 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 10: most diabolical lives told to you. How many of you 847 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 10: are sitting here now about to cross this stage and 848 00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 10: are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are 849 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,080 Speaker 10: going to get in your career. Some of you may 850 00:44:45,080 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 10: go on to lead successful careers in the world, but 851 00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 10: I would venture to guess that the majority of you 852 00:44:49,600 --> 00:44:52,719 Speaker 10: are most excited about your marriage and the children you 853 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,840 Speaker 10: will bring into this world. I can tell you that 854 00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 10: my beautiful wife. Isabelle would be the first to say 855 00:44:57,280 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 10: that her life truly started when she began living her 856 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 10: voca as a wife and as a mother. I'm on 857 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 10: this stage today and able to be the man I 858 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 10: am because I have a wife who leans into her location. 859 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 10: I beyond blessed with the many talents God has given me. 860 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 10: But it cannot be overstated that all of my success 861 00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 10: is made possible because a girl I met in being 862 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 10: class back in middle school would convert to the faith, 863 00:45:21,040 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 10: become my wife, and embrace one of the most important 864 00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:25,360 Speaker 10: titles of all homemaker. 865 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 2: Sounds great contract. I love it, ten out of ten, 866 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 2: ten out of. 867 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 1: Ten to you. 868 00:45:32,080 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 5: He was speaking at the Benedictine College at Atchinson, Kansas. 869 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:38,920 Speaker 5: If I messed any of that up, I'm not familiar. 870 00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 2: I'll say, first of all, I mean, this is so 871 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 2: important and there need to be far more people that 872 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,640 Speaker 2: are talking about this. I career switched out of the 873 00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 2: CIA into media, and I did so now in retrospect, 874 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:53,560 Speaker 2: at the expense of starting a family earlier. And that's 875 00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 2: a tough call, and I would not recommend it for 876 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,880 Speaker 2: most people. I would recommend people getting married younger and 877 00:45:58,920 --> 00:46:01,759 Speaker 2: starting their families younger, I would not do what's very 878 00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 2: normal here in New York City, which is push as 879 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,279 Speaker 2: hard as you can until forty and then turn around 880 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 2: and build your life as you want it then, because honestly, 881 00:46:10,400 --> 00:46:12,960 Speaker 2: whether you make VP at Goldman or you make partner 882 00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:15,719 Speaker 2: at the law firm or whatever, it's just not going 883 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 2: to matter in the end. Your kids, your family, your 884 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:20,520 Speaker 2: loved ones, your wife, your husband, That's what's going to 885 00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 2: matter in the end. 886 00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 1: And I already know that that's well said by you. 887 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 5: I give credit to Harrison Vucker here because I know 888 00:46:28,239 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 5: so many of you out there are raising families. I 889 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:33,080 Speaker 5: became a dad at twenty eight. To your point, Buck, 890 00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 5: I was relatively young. 891 00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,120 Speaker 2: Which is like in New York City terms, might as 892 00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,239 Speaker 2: well be high school age, Like that's really young. 893 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I was super young to become a dad, relatively speaking, 894 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:44,799 Speaker 5: especially for somebody who stayed in school till twenty five 895 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 5: to become a lawyer. It's the right decision. I'm so 896 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 5: glad that I did it, but it had a lot 897 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 5: of struggles. We didn't have a lot of money. My 898 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:55,280 Speaker 5: wife and I early in our life, we were spending 899 00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 5: more money on childcare than we would have had to 900 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:01,719 Speaker 5: pay for tuition and life got a lot better when 901 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:04,879 Speaker 5: we had the ability to have one parent stay at home. 902 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 5: It can be the dad or the mom, but that 903 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:10,240 Speaker 5: is ideal and I think that's really what Harrison Bucker's 904 00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 5: just talking about. 905 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: Why are they mad at it? That's a question. Crazy 906 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:13,200 Speaker 1: d
