1 00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:09,799 Speaker 1: It's that time time, time, time, luck and load. 2 00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: So Michael Verie Show is on the air. I didn't 3 00:00:34,040 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 2: get that right. 4 00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 3: I thought Morgan Thompson, the TikToker playing that James Talerico 5 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 3: that she had found where he had called Colin Alread 6 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 3: a mediocre black man. That is not what happened. I 7 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 3: listened to the tape again. She says that Tallerico said 8 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,440 Speaker 3: that to her himself, so we don't know if he 9 00:00:56,560 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 3: said it or not, if she made it up. He 10 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 3: can't defend himself and lived by the sword, you die 11 00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:08,960 Speaker 3: by the sword. Tall Rico has played the racism game 12 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:12,400 Speaker 3: throughout his career, and were he to be the nominee, 13 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 3: he would play that game again in November. I'm sick 14 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 3: of it. I call it out for what it is. 15 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:20,919 Speaker 3: You've got a lot of people who are a mediocre 16 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 3: who happen to be black, who have advanced in their 17 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 3: careers by screaming racism. You've got a lot of people 18 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 3: getting elected on the basis that I'm black, you're black, 19 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:36,680 Speaker 3: Vote for me. I'm black after white liberals for years 20 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,400 Speaker 3: have taught them that they're zoo animals who are too 21 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 3: weak and stupid to take care of themselves. You want 22 00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 3: to know who's a real victim of racism, that's black, 23 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 3: highly qualified, competent people. They don't like those people. They 24 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:59,120 Speaker 3: don't like them at all because those people don't need 25 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 3: the machine, they don't need racism, and those people see 26 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: it for what it is, and those people don't want 27 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 3: to have it said of them that they ended up 28 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 3: where they are because guilt tinged claims of racism have 29 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,040 Speaker 3: caused people to elevate them to positions where they don't 30 00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 3: belong because they're not very smart. There are some stupid 31 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 3: white black people, by the way, just as there are 32 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 3: stupid white people. The fact that nobody is comfortable saying 33 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 3: that we also have stupid black people is a big 34 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 3: part of the problem because I can tell you this. 35 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 3: If a guy ran a five five point forty and 36 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 3: he went into the NFL to be the starting running back, 37 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 3: and they got there and he's too slow to be 38 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: the running back, nobody would say, how dare you? He's 39 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 3: a black man. Let's say get his ass out and 40 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 3: get somebody else who can run. Period. In the story, 41 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,320 Speaker 3: he's not very fast, or if he has butterfingers, you 42 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,919 Speaker 3: say he can't be our receiver. He can't catch well, 43 00:03:13,960 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 3: but he's black. I don't care. Find somebody else he 44 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:24,080 Speaker 3: can't catch, because running fast or catching or tackling or 45 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 3: throwing or reading defenses or whatever the position is matters 46 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 3: to whether the team wins or loses the game. And 47 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 3: in politics, we actually care about success. I'm sorry. In sports, 48 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 3: we actually care about success. In politics, we have decided 49 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 3: to let this country decline because the only thing worse 50 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 3: than the country declining, the only thing worse would be 51 00:03:52,280 --> 00:04:00,839 Speaker 3: somebody claiming racism, guilt, compassion, naivete. That is the death 52 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,640 Speaker 3: of this country. And it's happening, and it's been happening, 53 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 3: and there are powerful tools. There is what is known 54 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 3: as the cry bully, who will call you a racist 55 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,359 Speaker 3: and insult you and intimidate you and say the worst 56 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 3: things about you until you expose them for who they are, 57 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 3: and then they will shrink into being the victim, all 58 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 3: within a matter of moments. I've seen it all. I 59 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,799 Speaker 3: got no patience for it. Stupid people are stupid people, 60 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 3: even stupid black people. So here's call it Allred, who 61 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 3: is mediocre, by the way, and he is black, and 62 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 3: at least for now, he is a man so I 63 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,120 Speaker 3: don't think call him a mediocre black man is necessarily 64 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 3: such a bad thing. But hey, I want Jasmine Crockett 65 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 3: to win, and I want every white liberal to lose. 66 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:05,920 Speaker 3: So if taller Rico has to be impaled on his 67 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 3: own petard in order to expose what he and other 68 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 3: white liberals have done to us their neighbors for years, 69 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 3: so be it. James taller Rico, you racist. Here's Colin 70 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 3: already mediocre black man. 71 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 4: I understand that James Talerico had the temerity and the 72 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 4: audacity to say to a black woman that he had 73 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 4: signed up to run against a mediocre black man, meaning. 74 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 3: Me, Can I just say that I got my if 75 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 3: somebody's close to already, I'm not. We do have mutual friends, 76 00:05:44,880 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 3: but I don't know him personally. I went and got 77 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 3: my testosterone shot yesterday. I'm happy to hook him up. 78 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: This kind of effeminate personality that he's taken on, it's awkward. 79 00:05:59,120 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 3: It is awkward. 80 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 4: I understand that James Tallerco had the temerity and the 81 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 4: audacity to say to a black woman that he had 82 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 4: signed up to run against a mediocre a black man 83 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 4: meeting me, not a formidable, intelligent black woman, meaning Jasmine Crockett. 84 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,920 Speaker 4: Let me just break this down into a few segments here. 85 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,159 Speaker 4: First of all, let me just give you some free advice, James. 86 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 4: If you want to compliment black women, just do it. 87 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 3: Just do it. 88 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,920 Speaker 4: Don't do it while also tearing down a black man. Okay, 89 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 4: we've seen that play before. We're sick and tired of it. 90 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 4: We're tired of folks using praise for black women to 91 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 4: mask criticism for black men. That's not good for our community. 92 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 4: It's not good. It just it doesn't work, and we 93 00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 4: know what you're doing. Okay, So next time you want 94 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 4: to praise a black women, just do that. Leave black 95 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 4: men out of it. Just leave a lot of things. 96 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 3: Out of it. 97 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,920 Speaker 4: Second of all, did you ever have a coach or 98 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 4: somebody you know, a leader in your life tell you 99 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 4: that when you make an accusation, you often have a 100 00:06:55,640 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 4: bit of confession in it. Maybe he's the word mediocre 101 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,360 Speaker 4: because there was something creeping into your mind about yourself, 102 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 4: because I know you're not talking about somebody who's been 103 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 4: better at three things and you've ever been at one. 104 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 4: You are not saving religion for the Democratic Party or 105 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 4: the left. We already had Senator Reverend doctor Raphael Warnock 106 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 4: for that we don't need you. You're not saying anything unique, 107 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 4: You're just saying it looking like you. 108 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 3: Okay, he's a doctor. 109 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 4: And third of all, let me just say to all 110 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 4: the young black men out there, all the young men 111 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 4: come from tough background, struggle growing up, who maybe think 112 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 4: that someday you want to put yourself forward as a 113 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 4: leader in your community. It's gonna have haters like this 114 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 4: are gonna show up, and you're gonna feel like you 115 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:49,120 Speaker 4: have to be twice as good and jump twice as 116 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 4: high and talk twice as well.

Many of the uninitiated, who I guess 139 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:21,440 Speaker 3: I've never lived through campaigns, believe that you run a 140 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 3: primary with a constant eye toward November because you don't 141 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,839 Speaker 3: want to be too radical in the primary because then 142 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 3: they'll rub that in your nose in November. If you 143 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 3: feel that way, you haven't been around politics. Candidates often 144 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 3: move to the extreme in order to win a primary 145 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 3: and move back to the middle by November, and it's 146 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 3: actually not very hard. During the dog days of summer 147 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 3: after the primaries, when most people are not thinking about politics, 148 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 3: the candidates will go back out hit the hustings, and 149 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 3: they will do a reset and all those radical viewpoints 150 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 3: they espoused during the primary will be shed like a 151 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 3: jacket that doesn't fit any longer, because it doesn't. The 152 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 3: audience has changed. Once you win your party's nomination, the 153 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:27,160 Speaker 3: party will consolidate behind you. There is always a belief that, well, 154 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:32,840 Speaker 3: his opponent supporters won't support him because the race got nasty, 155 00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 3: and they'll be mad at him. That never happens. It 156 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 3: never ever happens. And the reason is, let's say, if 157 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,679 Speaker 3: you're a tall Rico, tall Rico goes really nasty against 158 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 3: Jasmin Crockett. He's not because he can't win with that. 159 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,320 Speaker 3: But if he could, he would, he'd call the end 160 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 3: word if it would help him win. But let's say 161 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 3: Talrico goes now stealing her and March third comes, he wins, 162 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:10,640 Speaker 3: people are mad at him. By the time you get 163 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 3: to the fall, where across the country, Democrats are spending 164 00:11:14,640 --> 00:11:20,680 Speaker 3: money saying Trump hates non white people, Ice is killing people. 165 00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,719 Speaker 3: Everything is terrible. Racism is horrible. You've got people who 166 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,680 Speaker 3: are paid to sit in an office, the same people 167 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 3: that used to sell you cigarettes or beer, or tampons 168 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 3: or toilet paper, and their job is to grab your 169 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 3: attention and get you to do what they want you 170 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,200 Speaker 3: to do in ways that align with how you already feel, 171 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 3: so that by November people have forgotten that Taller Rico 172 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 3: did these awful things to crock it because the Republicans 173 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 3: are the devil, and they'll hold their nose vote for him. 174 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:54,920 Speaker 3: By the way, we do it on our side as well. 175 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,360 Speaker 3: Every year, every election, people always think that you are 176 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 3: in some way encumbered during a primary by the fact 177 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 3: you still have to win in November. That is the 178 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 3: least sophisticated take on how the process works, because that 179 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 3: is just not true. It is a cynical perspective that 180 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:17,439 Speaker 3: I have that people won't care about November, but it 181 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:20,840 Speaker 3: is rooted in many elections and studying the public reaction. 182 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 3: I don't consider myself really good at knowing how people feel. 183 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 3: I do consider myself really good at analyzing what people 184 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 3: expressed at the ballot box after the fact. It's a 185 00:12:34,480 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 3: very different skill set. I'm not a big predictor. I 186 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 3: don't enjoy predicting. I don't know that I necessarily have 187 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 3: my finger on the pulse of the public to tell 188 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 3: you how I think people are going to vote, and 189 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 3: some of the time how I think they're going to 190 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 3: vote depresses me. It bums me out that Greg Abbott 191 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 3: will be reelected. It bums me out he's absolutely horrible. 192 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,320 Speaker 3: It bums me out how many people think they're good 193 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 3: Republicans because to vote for him, or that he's a 194 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:06,839 Speaker 3: good Republican or that whatever issue he's promoting lately shows 195 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 3: that he's a fighter for us. He sat by and 196 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 3: watched Alex Meeler lose a winnable race. She got the 197 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,679 Speaker 3: Houston Chronicles endorsement, unheard of for Republican. She managed to 198 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 3: get a number of Democrats to cross over and vote 199 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 3: for her. That race was one. Rodney and his team 200 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,320 Speaker 3: cheated her out of that race. The Secretary of State's 201 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: office had every ability to come in and audit that 202 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 3: and expose it and overturn it, but they didn't. And 203 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 3: the reason is typical of Abbott. He never expends any 204 00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 3: political capital on anyone or anything unless it personally benefits him. Well, Michael, 205 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 3: he helped all those state reps with school vouchers. He 206 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 3: wanted school vouchers. He needed to show that he had 207 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 3: accomplished something. And that's what he chose, and that's what 208 00:13:54,040 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 3: he did. You've got Abbot now claiming that he's going 209 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: to clean up Harris County. If Abbot had gotten involved 210 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:10,160 Speaker 3: in Alex Meter's race four years ago, we could have 211 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 3: won the county. We could have won the county judges seat. 212 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 3: We could have taken control of Harris County. We could 213 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 3: have controlled the elections. We could have prevented the fraud 214 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: that we all know is going to happen. Greg Abbott 215 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 3: is going to be the victim of fraud in Harris 216 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 3: County and he knows it. He's very well aware of it, 217 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 3: and he could have prevented it. So he's trying to 218 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 3: get Republicans to turn out on the basis that he's 219 00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 3: going to fix for Harris County. Why now, Why start 220 00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 3: now when you did nothing before? Because it didn't benefit 221 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 3: you before. Oh, Crockett race, The far more dangerous candidate 222 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 3: is James Talerico. Trust me on that a loan bad. 223 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 3: The fact that it is a statistical dead heat with 224 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 3: Crockett at thirty seven Crocket at thirty eight, at thirty seven, 225 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: I would argue bodes well for him in the waning weeks. 226 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 3: You have twenty one percent of voters undecided. The question 227 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,600 Speaker 3: is there are two questions at play to determine who 228 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 3: will win this race. The first one is how do 229 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 3: those twenty one percent of undecided voters break if those 230 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 3: voters show up to vote. An undecided voter is far 231 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 3: less likely show up to vote than a committed voter. 232 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 3: All right, if those voters show up to vote, who 233 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 3: are they going to vote for? And I would argue tallerico. 234 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 3: And that is because if you are a Jasmine Crockett supporter, 235 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 3: you know she does this ghetto thing. You know she's 236 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 3: not ghetto, but she does a ghetto thing. It is. 237 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 3: It is a race to the bottom for candidates with 238 00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: black voters at election time. Kamala Harris went from a 239 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 3: woman who spoke in a sophisticated manner the entirety of 240 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: her career until it came time to speak to black 241 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 3: audiences when they paid Meghan the Stallion a lot of 242 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 3: money to get up and jiggle and twerk in front 243 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 3: of a black audience, and she started shucking in jiving 244 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: like some nineteen forties blackface film, a character most people 245 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:38,560 Speaker 3: had never seen. Her mother's Indian, her father's Caribbean. She 246 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 3: didn't grow up doing that. She's not Angela Davis. It 247 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 3: tells you a lot about how politicians feel about black 248 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 3: voters when you study the presentation they make to black 249 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 3: voters in order to woo black voters. They are giving 250 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 3: black voters what they think black voters want. They would 251 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,879 Speaker 3: go in and do Henry Higgins from My Fair Lady 252 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 3: if they thought it would help. But they don't do 253 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 3: they They go in and do the Shuck and Gy, 254 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 3: They do the Mammy on the front porch, they do 255 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,439 Speaker 3: the Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch, and they bundle 256 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 3: all that together because they believe that's what appealed to 257 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 3: black vote will appeal to black voters. Obama did it. 258 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 3: Obama was going to be the unblack, first post black, 259 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 3: post racial president in America until he felt he needed 260 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 3: to lock up the black vote. And then what did 261 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 3: he do You think he went to Jeremiah Wright's church 262 00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 3: over the years because he learned something from the Black 263 00:17:56,240 --> 00:18:03,399 Speaker 3: nationalist church. No, the light skinned kid of mixed parentage 264 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 3: who grew up in great privilege going to Punaho in 265 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 3: Hawaii was not the South Side of Chicago. Black nationalist 266 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:16,360 Speaker 3: Jeremiah Wright, the US of k k K kind of guy. 267 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 3: He did that because he needed street cred. There is 268 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 3: a dirty little secret about black politics that you've got 269 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 3: to be black enough. One of the worst things you 270 00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 3: can say about a black politician is they ain't black enough. 271 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 3: There was an advisor to President Bush the Elder who 272 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 3: wrote a book forgues his Last Time Ron. His book's 273 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 3: called Acting White, and he said, the oldest slur levied 274 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 3: by blacks on blacks goes back to the plantation, the 275 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:55,919 Speaker 3: slave days, and it is called acting white. For blacks 276 00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 3: to say of other blacks that he is acting white 277 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 3: means that he has betrayed his tribe. He sold us out. 278 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 3: That would be like Sorrow's selling out his fellow Jews 279 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 3: to win favor with the Nazis. That's how it is viewed. 280 00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 3: So back to those undecided voters, the Crocket voters are 281 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 3: with Crocket. They want a black senator. We've never had 282 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 3: that in Texas. They want a black senator and they 283 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 3: want her. They like the show. You'll have some white 284 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 3: liberals who like the idea that we're not a racist 285 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,880 Speaker 3: state anymore. And she pisses Trumpe. Send her up there 286 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 3: to act ghetto like some seventies character on a sitcom. 287 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 3: Maybe we'll have her walk in the door on good 288 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 3: times to slam the door behind her, like Thelma, what's 289 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 3: y'all doing in here? Y'all up in here? Acting footage. 290 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 3: That's all an act. That's not who she is. I'm 291 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 3: not sure what it says about her, but that's an act. 292 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 3: It's an act she has tried to develop. She's not 293 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 3: even good at it. If you catch her, it comes 294 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 3: and goes. It's not natural. I'm not saying she deserves 295 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:13,640 Speaker 3: it exalted status if it were quite the opposite. But 296 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: the speaking in this manner is an affectation. Don't want 297 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 3: to ruin it for you, but Larry the cable guy 298 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 3: doesn't actually really talk like that. That's a character for 299 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 3: comedic value. This is a character for strategic value. But 300 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 3: it tells you a lot about what she thinks Black 301 00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:42,040 Speaker 3: Democrat voters want out of her, that she keeps giving 302 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:48,400 Speaker 3: it to him. This is a case where she doesn't 303 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 3: know the recipe to success, but she keeps trying different things, 304 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 3: and she'd know when she's got it. She'll know because 305 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 3: Tallarico will be on the run, because the black mass 306 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:09,120 Speaker 3: will come the power structure, Jessa might come to tell 307 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 3: maybe we'll get Ben Crump Our Sharpton, we'll talk about 308 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 3: her on his show, and he might even make an appearance. 309 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 3: And the black pastors, oh, they will circle round her, 310 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 3: and they will lay hands upon her, and they will 311 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 3: pray for her, and the lady folk will say, yes, 312 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,919 Speaker 3: preach it, pastor, preach it, and Jasmine Crockett will have 313 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 3: been anointed. She's not yet and she may not be. 314 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 3: So Tylerico's play is take it right down the middle, 315 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,679 Speaker 3: just place safe, keep it in the fairway, don't end 316 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 3: up in the weeds. Let her make a mistake. She's 317 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 3: gonna lock up the black vote. First question is how 318 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,680 Speaker 3: will the twenty one percent undecided to break? I would 319 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 3: say at this point they break for Tall Rico. The 320 00:22:04,359 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 3: second bigger question is who shows up to vote her 321 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 3: thirty eight percent or his thirty seven percent. Those twenty 322 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 3: one percent don't show up in large numbers to vote. 323 00:22:13,880 --> 00:22:16,679 Speaker 3: Who can generate That's what she's trying with. She's not 324 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 3: trying to win more voters. She's locked up her voter. 325 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 3: She's trying to fire up her voters. So there is 326 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 3: audio making the rounds of James Talerico. Yeah, this is 327 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 3: probably the single moment that he earned the title Beto 328 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 3: with the Bible more than any other. Is this flip 329 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:36,919 Speaker 3: four O one er moon? This is tall Rico on 330 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 3: with Joe Rogan. He said the words, and he should 331 00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,880 Speaker 3: have to answer for the words. But it is important 332 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 3: that it's being trafficked right now as if it happened 333 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:52,359 Speaker 3: this week, and it didn't. This is actually from over 334 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 3: the summer of last year, before he announced he was 335 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 3: running for the Senate. But he knew and he knew 336 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 3: he was going to run for the Senate. I don't 337 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 3: want to qubble over that point. I don't want to 338 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 3: give it too much emphasis or important importance, but it 339 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 3: is it is relevant. I suppose tall Rico at this 340 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 3: point is trying to get ahead of an issue. He's 341 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 3: trying to win evangelicals as a democrat, and this tells 342 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 3: you a lot about the state of the evangelical church 343 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 3: today that he believes that is possible. You will note 344 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 3: that he moderates his tone. He doesn't sound like a 345 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 3: democrat here. He doesn't sound like Gavin Newsom or Beato 346 00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 3: for that matter. He's trying very hard not to sound angry. 347 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,040 Speaker 3: He's trying very hard not sound like he's on cocaine, 348 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 3: sped up, very anxious, very edgy. He's trying to channel 349 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 3: maybe a little Billy Graham if he can, or at 350 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 3: least Jucks Wendell. He's trying to give you where I 351 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 3: believe the modern evangelical church has largely fallen. The sweats 352 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 3: and flip flops service, the odd times, the over the 353 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 3: top production value, the health and wellness doctrine, the restaurants 354 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:18,000 Speaker 3: and childcare, and blinging and blaying at the church, the 355 00:24:18,040 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 3: pastor with the airplane. And I'm not talking about the 356 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 3: Black Church now. I'm telling what has become of the 357 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 3: formerly Southern Baptist non denominational. The son as pastor of 358 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 3: the church his daddy was pastor of for ten years 359 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: or fifty. It depends on the church, the moving away 360 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: from the Baptist doctrine and organization, the split with the 361 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:46,200 Speaker 3: older the elders of the church who built the church 362 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 3: and financed the church, who counseled young, married couples. This 363 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 3: is the new church, the new age church, where anything 364 00:24:54,720 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 3: and everything goes. And Tallarico is trying to handle that. 365 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,360 Speaker 3: And I've seen conservatives say and he's trying to get 366 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 3: Christian votes. He won't do it. You're wrong. He will 367 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 3: do it. He absolutely will do it. There is the 368 00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:16,000 Speaker 3: Black Church, there is the old White Evangelical Church. But 369 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:18,960 Speaker 3: there is a wide lane in the middle that a 370 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 3: lot of folks don't see, and they have shed their 371 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 3: denominational attachment literally and figuratively. The nomenclature now is very aspirational. 372 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 3: The teachings are not doctrinal at all. They're very permissive, 373 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 3: very enabling, very empowering. They're not judgmental. They're not biblical, 374 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:47,680 Speaker 3: but they sound like they are. And that makes people 375 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 3: feel good because we didn't come to church to be judged. 376 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 3: We don't need a sense of conviction. It kind of 377 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 3: has more of a tupperware party vibe to it. We'll 378 00:25:59,320 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 3: get some other people to come, it'll be fun, lots 379 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,480 Speaker 3: of outside activities, lots of amenities being a member of 380 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 3: the church. That's what tolery Go is doing here. Give 381 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 3: this a listen. 382 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 5: But I say all this in terms of in context 383 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 5: of abortion, because before God comes over Mary and we 384 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 5: have the incarnation, God asks for Mary's consent, which is remarkable. 385 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,000 Speaker 5: I mean, go back and read this in Luke I mean, 386 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 5: the angel comes down and asks Mary if this is 387 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 5: something she wants to do, and she says, if it 388 00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 5: is God's will, let it be done, let it be 389 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 5: let it happen. So to me, that is an affirmation 390 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 5: in one of our most central stories that creation has 391 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 5: to be done with consent. You cannot force someone to create. 392 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 5: Creation is one of the most sacred acts that that 393 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:45,960 Speaker 5: we engage in as human beings. But that has to 394 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 5: be done with consent. It has to be done with freedom. 395 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,760 Speaker 5: And to me, that is absolutely consistent with the ministry 396 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,479 Speaker 5: and life and death of Jesus. And so that's how 397 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 5: I come down on that side of the issue. 398 00:26:58,040 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 3: Do you understand what he just said. He claims that 399 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 3: he is for abortion because the Angel Gabriel asks Mary, Hallo, 400 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 3: you want to have this baby or not. It's your choice. 401 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 3: Here's a coat hanger. You decide, let us know, Son 402 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:28,600 Speaker 3: of God or not. That is maybe the most offensive 403 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 3: contortion of the Word of God I've ever heard. That 404 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 3: is perhaps the worst blasphemy I have ever witnessed in 405 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 3: my fifty four years to suggest that you went into 406 00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 3: the issue of abortion with a wide open mind, went 407 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 3: to the word of God and said, Father, lead me 408 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 3: to the right conclusion, and you said, wait a minute, hey, 409 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 3: wait aside. Never sorry before God through his angel is 410 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 3: making clear to Mary you could be the mother of God, 411 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 3: or I'll build a planned parenthood right across the street. 412 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 3: I got a DNC waiting for you. Jesus is a choice. 413 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 3: We know that. Just as you can't be a pro 414 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,800 Speaker 3: choice Republican and win the national nomination or a major 415 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 3: statewide position in Texas, so too, you can't be pro life. 416 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 3: You must be adamantly pro choice. So he knew that. 417 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 3: So he went searching for some contortion, and in the 418 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 3: process he gave the option to Mary that she could 419 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 3: abort Jesus, suggesting the immaculate conception had occurred. And now 420 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 3: do you want to have this baby or not. It's 421 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 3: up to you. We got Edna Gladney, or you can 422 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:08,160 Speaker 3: murder Jesus. That's how dangerous batal with the Bible is.
