1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: Welcome everybody, Tuesday edition of Play and Buck and it's

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:09,720
Speaker 1: one hundred days of Trump into this second term. One

3
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: hundred days of Trump, absolutely fantastic stuff to talk about here.

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 2: We will dive.

5
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:20,479
Speaker 1: Into all of the latest with the Trump administration, but

6
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: also take a look at what has gone on so far.

7
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: It has been transformative, it has been fast and furious,

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,560
Speaker 1: and it is just the beginning. So we want to

9
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:34,879
Speaker 1: take a moment year to see how it has been

10
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:39,320
Speaker 1: and will be on Trump two point zero and we'll

11
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 1: take your calls on this obviously and have a free

12
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,279
Speaker 1: flowing conversation about the wins and the challenges left to

13
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: be tackled. We've also got JD Vance, Vice President Advance.

14
00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,800
Speaker 1: Clay and I both will have to try not to

15
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 1: call him JD because we've known him as JD for years,

16
00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: but now he is Vice president Vance.

17
00:00:58,960 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: He will be with us.

18
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 1: We did an interview with him second hour of the program,

19
00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 1: so definitely want to tune in talking about all the

20
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,679
Speaker 1: big stuff going on right now, everything from men and

21
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:16,400
Speaker 1: women in sports, to tariffs to the border to Trump

22
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: two point zero, So definitely second hour diving into that,

23
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: looking forward to that conversation for all of you, and

24
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: we have more to look at here on the sports

25
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: side of things, Clay, the Philadelphia Eagles went to the

26
00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: White House, which is very nice. They had a nice time.

27
00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: From what I understand, the Canadian election didn't exactly go

28
00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: the way we wanted to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney,

29
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: we won't spend too much time on this because well,

30
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: very few of you live in Canada, so not really

31
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 1: our problem. There are some we have some Canadian listeners,

32
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 1: but generally I don't know anything about Canadian politics. We

33
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: talked some about Pierre Polyev because he had a couple

34
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: of viral videos, but once Trump won, I gotta be

35
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: honest with you, my interest in what happened in America's

36
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 1: top hat really kind of vanished. I feel bad for

37
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: Canadians stuck behind enemy lines, but we're kind of rolling here,

38
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: so it's hard for me to get too worked up

39
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:20,520
Speaker 1: about what happens in Canada. I think that's probably the

40
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 1: general perspective. But we do have empathy for those of

41
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: you a that are stuck above the border dealing with chaos,

42
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,080
Speaker 1: and they say leadership. They didn't learn the lessons of

43
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:36,160
Speaker 1: Trudeau painfully enough. This is what you see in microcosm

44
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: in places well, actually I think California has more people

45
00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: than Canada. But this is what you see in places

46
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 1: like California, where even when there's tremendous mismanagement, you have

47
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: Democrats who double and triple down on the madness. Well,

48
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: the liberals, the leftists in Canada doubling and tripling down

49
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: on the madness. They want everything to be dysfunctional. They

50
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,079
Speaker 1: want to have sky high housing prices and a in

51
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: anemic economy and all these things. Okay, they want to

52
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: have bad healthcare that they tell themselves is great because

53
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,959
Speaker 1: it's free, but actually it's not free at all. It's

54
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,919
Speaker 1: very expensive when you add the time and the cost

55
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: and the inability to get care. But like I said,

56
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,640
Speaker 1: Canada not our problem. Not going to be the fifty

57
00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:19,600
Speaker 1: first state either. So who cares? Well, we care a

58
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: little bit, but we don't care that much. Now, one

59
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 1: hundred days of Trump and some exciting things going on.

60
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: Let's take it first too. This cut to Caroline Levitt

61
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: talking about what the some of the top line numbers

62
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 1: are for this first one hundred days of Trump. Two

63
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,840
Speaker 1: point zero play it so far.

64
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 3: Total investment commitments under the Trump administration have reached more

65
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 3: than five trillion dollars, including five hundred billion from Apple

66
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 3: and US based manufacturing and training, five hundred billion from

67
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 3: Navidia and AI infrastructure, one hundred billion from TSMC and

68
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 3: US hips manufacturing, and the five hundred billion dollar private

69
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 3: investment by Open Ai Oracle in soft bank and AI

70
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 3: infrastructure as well. All of these investment commitments are estimated

71
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: to generate at least four hundred and fifty one thousand

72
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 3: new high paying jobs for American workers and families. At

73
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,880
Speaker 3: this point, President Trump has secured more investments in the

74
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 3: United States of America in one hundred days than Joe

75
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 3: Biden did in four years.

76
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: Trump is a deal maker, as we know, Clay, and

77
00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 1: we'll talk more about tariffs wat jd vance about that too.

78
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,239
Speaker 1: But in terms of the economy being open for business

79
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 1: in this country, and particularly look at things like going

80
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: to maximize trying to maximize energy production, going after our

81
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: own resources, a lot to be proud of so far

82
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: in one hundred.

83
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: Days, totally.

84
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 4: And some people are going to say because the negative,

85
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: given that we're at a one hundred day is going

86
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,919
Speaker 4: to be Hey, let's look at the polling numbers. Here's

87
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,799
Speaker 4: what I would say about the polls. First of all,

88
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,400
Speaker 4: I don't really care, and you might say, Okay, what

89
00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,840
Speaker 4: do you mean by that Trump is not going to

90
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 4: be eligible to run for reelection. So I suspect that

91
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 4: by the time Trump's term is coming near an end,

92
00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 4: that he will be on a popularity upswing, like we

93
00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 4: saw with Barack Obama and with Bill Clinton. By and large,

94
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,799
Speaker 4: did you sign on to this, Buck that the only

95
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 4: two two term presidents that could have been reelected if

96
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,559
Speaker 4: they had been able to run, would have been Bill

97
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 4: Clinton in two thousand U and Barack Obama I think

98
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 4: would have won in two thousand and sixteen, now maybe not.

99
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 4: I also think Ronald Reagan, if he had been able

100
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,800
Speaker 4: to run in nineteen eighty eight, even with his advanced age,

101
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 4: would have likely won two. I think Trump will be

102
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 4: at his peak popularity. Here's a three year in advance prediction.

103
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 4: Trump in the fall of twenty twenty eight will be

104
00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 4: at peak popularity because the impact of his trade agreements

105
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,800
Speaker 4: and of his economic policies will be flourishing at a

106
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 4: high level. I think we will have peace, and I

107
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,839
Speaker 4: think that if Trump were eligible to run for a

108
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 4: third term that he would win again in.

109
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 2: Twenty twenty eight.

110
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 1: I think it very lot of history early, a lot

111
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: of we can't test the thesis one way or the other.

112
00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:36,120
Speaker 1: I mean, I think Bill Clinton is incredibly lucky as

113
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 1: a politician, the luck that that guy had on a

114
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 1: whole range of things. But if you had been in

115
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 1: office when nine to eleven actually happened, the straight line

116
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: between him being an imbecile on foreign policy and missing

117
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 1: every chance and US getting hit with the worst attacks

118
00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:54,119
Speaker 1: in Pearl Harbor would have been irrefutable, even for Democrats. Also,

119
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 1: the stock market crash also a lot of things this

120
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,000
Speaker 1: guy got out, But justin.

121
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,920
Speaker 4: You disagree that he would have won. I think he

122
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,160
Speaker 4: would have beaten George W.

123
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 2: Bush.

124
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 5: I don't know.

125
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: I don't know.

126
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,120
Speaker 4: I think he would have won. I think Reagan would

127
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,080
Speaker 4: have won an eighty eight. This is an argument in

128
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 4: favor Regan. Reagan would have been too Reagan would have

129
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,080
Speaker 4: been too old at that point. That would have been

130
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 4: a problem for him. I think he would have won

131
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 4: because the only reason that George Bush Senior one was

132
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 4: because Reagan was so beloved, and obviously Ducaucus was not

133
00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 4: a candidate. You don't think Ronald Reagan would have beaten

134
00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 4: Doucacas in eighty eight. Reagan, he would have won.

135
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're throwing in the mix, like who

136
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,119
Speaker 1: he's going up against, you know, Barack Obama though running

137
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: Barack Obama running against Donald Trump. Actually don't think Barack

138
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: Obama would have won. I think Trump, I think I

139
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 1: think I think he would have won that election. I

140
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: think that Obama would have beaten Trump in sixteen.

141
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 2: Well remember not. You and I disagree vociferously on Remember Hillary.

142
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 4: First of all, I don't think Trump would have been

143
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:56,120
Speaker 4: the nominee necessarily, but Hillary came within whatever it was

144
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,679
Speaker 4: eighty five. Hillary was an awful candidate right off, full candidate.

145
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:01,200
Speaker 5: She was.

146
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 4: I mean, even Democrats looking back, they're like, man, you

147
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 4: know she just I don't know who she would have

148
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,160
Speaker 4: been able to beat. I think Trump was a great

149
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:13,600
Speaker 4: candidate against her. Ran a phenomenal campaign. But I actually

150
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 4: think the best campaign Trump ran was twenty four. Of

151
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 4: his three election campaigns, sixteen was phenomenal. I think he

152
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 4: was so well schooled by twenty four. Sixteen was more haphazard.

153
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 4: I think that this one was great. Again, were sixteen

154
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 4: was was insurgency. He was the insurgency against the machine,

155
00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 4: and just like happened sometimes in real life, the insurgency

156
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:44,719
Speaker 4: overcame the superior force in terms of battlefield operations. And

157
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 4: then in twenty four it was the comeback campaign, so

158
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 4: the Great American Comeback, which so the narratives I think

159
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 4: were pretty clear in both of those. And then twenty

160
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 4: twenty was the COVID you know, freak show what the

161
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:02,839
Speaker 4: hell is going on? Campaign for everybody, and I know

162
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:05,439
Speaker 4: all the other stuff quote unquote shenanigans.

163
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 1: We won't talk about it right now, but anyway, Clay,

164
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 1: I think that Trump's first one hundred days, here's what

165
00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 1: we have to remember about it. We wanted him to

166
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 1: do the things we want him to do, the things

167
00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,920
Speaker 1: that he promised to do, and some of those things

168
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: are disruptive, and disruptive things can be a little bit

169
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 1: off putting sometimes to the markets. It can feel a

170
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:28,920
Speaker 1: little bit you can create a little bit of anxiety

171
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 1: among people because oh wait, it's not exactly status quo

172
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,679
Speaker 1: is comfortable. This is why so often, and particularly in politics,

173
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,040
Speaker 1: I think people get into inertia. Well, this is the

174
00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 1: way it is, so, this is the way it will be,

175
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,880
Speaker 1: This is the way We've done things, so let's keep

176
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,680
Speaker 1: doing it that way. Trump isn't running again. I know

177
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 1: he jokes about the third term. That's the troll Libs.

178
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: It's like the fifty first state Canada. That's the troll.

179
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,600
Speaker 1: You know, Canada and Trudeau and the rest of them. Clay,

180
00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: he's not running again. We need him to do the

181
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 1: things that a politician who's obsessed with his next election

182
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 1: won't do. Yes, And this is what is so key.

183
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 1: That's why I'm saying the polling I'm not focused on.

184
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: If he were trying to run for reelection, I think

185
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,800
Speaker 1: you'll look at polling and you think about how that's

186
00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 1: going to play out. He is uniquely liberated to do

187
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: what he thinks the right results are without having to

188
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: worry about the day to day polling. And by the way,

189
00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:24,080
Speaker 1: that is.

190
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 4: Potentially going to run out in twenty twenty six, when

191
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,839
Speaker 4: they're likely going to impeach Trump again. If Democrats take

192
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,800
Speaker 4: back control of the House, they don't have anything new

193
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 4: to hit him with, so expect for them to go

194
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 4: back to the tried and true, failed methods of the past.

195
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 4: We've already seen it with them trying to broadcast and

196
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,600
Speaker 4: attack him by saying he's hitler. I think where we

197
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 4: are likely headed is Trump has got to get everything

198
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 4: done between now and the summer of twenty twenty six,

199
00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 4: and then we will see the House come down to

200
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 4: five or six different rent really close races, and Democrats

201
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 4: are either going to have a tiny minority or Republicans

202
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 4: are going to have a tiny majority. Right, tiny leadership.

203
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 4: I think that we're going to see in the Senate

204
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 4: good stuff. Republicans are going to maintain control of the Senate.

205
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,920
Speaker 4: So for judges things like that, Trump is going to

206
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 4: have four years to get his view of the judiciary through,

207
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 4: get as many different judges confirmed. But in order to

208
00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 4: have both control of the House and the Senate, he's

209
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 4: got to be fast. He's got to be decisive, and

210
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 4: I think that's what you're seeing right now, and sometimes

211
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 4: that's going to make people a little bit upset. So

212
00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 4: that's why I'm not concerned about any of the polling

213
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,080
Speaker 4: to the extent it's accurate as we sit here at

214
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 4: one hundred days, because he's making decisions that are multi

215
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 4: years in nature. Well, yes, and this is why I

216
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 4: want Trump to not care about the polls right now,

217
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 4: because the polls in a year as they pertain to

218
00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 4: the midterms and the Republican Party in its future will matter.

219
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,640
Speaker 4: The polls right now now do not matter at all.

220
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 4: In fact, all the polls really do is give a

221
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,840
Speaker 4: talking point to anti Trump media and the Democrat Party

222
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 4: that want to create a perception of.

223
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: Oh, this isn't working, Oh this is failing. Trump should

224
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 1: not be doing the things that he's doing. He's doing

225
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: what he promised to do when he ran. He said

226
00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,840
Speaker 1: he would take on the terif issue. He said he

227
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 1: would get a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine. He

228
00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: said he'd secure the border. You know, I could go

229
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 1: down the whole list. He's doing the things he said

230
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 1: he would do. Some of these things are, as we've said,

231
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,320
Speaker 1: a departure from the status quo. They are disruptive and

232
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: so clay by their very nature, they're going to create

233
00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:44,679
Speaker 1: a little bit of friction and a little bit of uncertainty.

234
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 1: If you don't want that, you don't want change, you

235
00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: don't want someone to fix anything. You just want more

236
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,120
Speaker 1: of the same. I think we all need to remember

237
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:57,120
Speaker 1: that the first one hundred days has been a plus. Overall.

238
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 1: It's not perfect, nothing ever will be, and there's no certainties,

239
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: there's no guarantees in life. But he's doing what he

240
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: said he would do, and he I think he should

241
00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 1: have our full support as he continues to pursue that mandate.

242
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 1: If he had veered off into nonsense, I'd be saying,

243
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: why did he veer off into nonsense? That's not what

244
00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:15,200
Speaker 1: has happened.

245
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 4: I also think, and we'll talk about this more, the

246
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 4: next one hundred days or so are set up to

247
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 4: be incredibly consequential. Hopefully we get some form of resolution

248
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 4: in Ukraine, more resolution in Gaza, and again inflation, which

249
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:31,960
Speaker 4: to me, I'll hit you when we come back, Buck

250
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,280
Speaker 4: with what the American public from an economic perspective is

251
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 4: most focused on, and inflation is at four year lows.

252
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,439
Speaker 4: To me, that is the number one laser focus. After

253
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,320
Speaker 4: Biden took us over nine percent, people still feel like

254
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 4: things cost more than they should. Tomorrow, evening Israel begins

255
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 4: celebrating their own Independence day seventy seventh anniversary. Is a

256
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,400
Speaker 4: nation and like our Independence Day, it should be a celebration.

257
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,680
Speaker 4: But this year, or once again, it's going to be

258
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 4: tense for the majority of people living in Israel. Freedom

259
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: nothing more than a daily struggle just to survive. There's

260
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 4: no real peace, only hesitation and fear of when another

261
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 4: missile attack might arrive. It's difficult to find moments of

262
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:18,520
Speaker 4: joy when there is so much danger and suffering out there.

263
00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 4: The Israeli government appreciates the International Fellowship of Christians and

264
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 4: Jews because they're helping to make sure the elderly, the sick,

265
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,080
Speaker 4: the wounded soldiers and impoverished families they don't fall through

266
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 4: the cracks. I saw all the work that the Fellowship

267
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 4: does when I was in Israel during December. We can provide,

268
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 4: thanks to you guys, life saving a medicine, hearty meals

280
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,560
Speaker 6: hundred days of the Trump Vance administration, and we are

281
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,240
Speaker 6: joined now by Vice President JD. Vance, and we're going

282
00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 6: to get into all the successes the border and more.

283
00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 2: But JD.

284
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,560
Speaker 4: I don't know if you've answered this question, But on

285
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,960
Speaker 4: the first day of your administration, Ohio State won the

286
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 4: National Championship against Notre Dame. But you had a ton

287
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 4: of obligations as the newly inaugurated vice president. Do you

288
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,040
Speaker 4: have like an official Buckeye guy who was following you

289
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 4: around that day giving you updates during the course.

290
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:51,760
Speaker 2: Of the game.

291
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 4: I know you're a big fan. I've actually I wondered

292
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 4: about it that night. I don't know if you've answered it.

293
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 4: I would have if my University of Tennessee ever gets

294
00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 4: back in the in the idle game, I would be

295
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,840
Speaker 4: terrified to miss any of it. What was your play

296
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 4: there for National Title Game day as a Buckeye.

297
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:09,400
Speaker 7: Yeah, there are a couple of different things going on.

298
00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:14,800
Speaker 7: So first I actually talked to my team about whether

299
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 7: it would be possible to skip the inaugural balls so

300
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 7: that I would be able to go to the game.

301
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 7: And actually, you know, I guess we'd get inaugurated, we'd

302
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 7: go to a few parties, and then I'd be able

303
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 7: to watch the game while the president took care of

304
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:28,720
Speaker 7: the inaugural balls. The team was not a huge fan

305
00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 7: of that. Apparently it would have been unprecedent for vice

306
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 7: president to skip the inaugural balls the night of the inauguration.

307
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 7: What we were able to do, though, is before the

308
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 7: first ball, I actually had all of my friends and

309
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,280
Speaker 7: family we got basically we turned a big hotel room

310
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 7: into a sports bar, and so I was able to

311
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:50,000
Speaker 7: watch the first quarter before the first ball, and I

312
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 7: think it was either right after the second or the

313
00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,680
Speaker 7: third ball, Notre Dame started to come back a little bit,

314
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 7: and so I sat in a room with like a

315
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:01,000
Speaker 7: nineteen inch TV and just sort of watch the Buckeyes

316
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 7: put it away. So I got to see a little

317
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 7: bit of it. Man. But yeah, it's it's on the

318
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,719
Speaker 7: one hand, like, what a cool day for an Ohio

319
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,000
Speaker 7: State fan to be inaugurated as the vice president have

320
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 7: your team win a national championship. On the other hand,

321
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:15,760
Speaker 7: was sad to miss most of the game, but you know,

322
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 7: official duties come first.

323
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:17,960
Speaker 3: Jennie.

324
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: I was also happy to see Vice president of Vance,

325
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:23,480
Speaker 1: very happy to see my beloved Buckeyes do so well.

326
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 2: I want to ask you.

327
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about a border if I can,

328
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 1: and what's going on with the administration on Well, let's

329
00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,080
Speaker 1: get into the next steps. The good news is you

330
00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 1: can sit here and tell us. But Clay and I've

331
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 1: been telling everybody about this. So far, the border is

332
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: secure ninety five percent drop. The stats speak for themselves.

333
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,040
Speaker 1: Biden kicked the border wide open, it was a choice.

334
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,399
Speaker 1: Trump has actually secured the border. Fantastic. We still have

335
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: millions and millions of illegals who came in under Biden.

336
00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: What should we expect from the perspective of building on

337
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:56,439
Speaker 1: the border successes so far in the next six to

338
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:57,240
Speaker 1: twelve months.

339
00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, obviously we know we have to ramp up

340
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 7: to porche deportations, and the President talks about this all

341
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,679
Speaker 7: the time, both in public and private. It's something that

342
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,720
Speaker 7: I'm very focused on. And a lot of this comes

343
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,720
Speaker 7: down to, I mean, it turns out we've got to

344
00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,200
Speaker 7: do some battle with some really crazy, far left judges

345
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:18,119
Speaker 7: in order to allow the administration to do what it

346
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 7: actually needs to do. And I will say to great credit.

347
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:24,040
Speaker 7: The President expected this when we came in. He said,

348
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:26,199
Speaker 7: you know, we're gonna start deporting people, and a lot

349
00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 7: of these far left judges are going to stop us,

350
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 7: and there's no way out of it but through it,

351
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 7: and we're just gonna have to battle. We're gonna have

352
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 7: to win the court cases. We're gonna have to take

353
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 7: some of this stuff all the way to the Supreme Court,

354
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 7: and we're going to have to find alternative ways to

355
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:42,720
Speaker 7: deport people. When the judges say you can't do this method,

356
00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 7: we're gonna have to find another method. So we recognize

357
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:48,880
Speaker 7: that we're dealing battle here, or doing battle with basically

358
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 7: a massive bureaucracy that has decided that it rules the

359
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,240
Speaker 7: country rather than the American people. And I think one

360
00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 7: of the biggest takeaways of one hundred days is, yes,

361
00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 7: we've got a lot of successes. We've also revealed old

362
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 7: ways in which this deeply entrenched bureocracy tries to fight

363
00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,640
Speaker 7: the will of the American people. And thank god, we've

364
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:08,720
Speaker 7: got a vice president and a president who are pushing

365
00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,919
Speaker 7: back against him. And that's exactly what we told the

366
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 7: American people we would do. That's exactly what we're doing.

367
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,720
Speaker 7: But I think that is really the biggest focal point

368
00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:20,240
Speaker 7: of immigration policy over the next six to twelve months,

369
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 7: is to empower all of the people in the administration,

370
00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 7: from Tom Homer and Christynome to the border patrol agents

371
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,640
Speaker 7: on the ground to do their job and to get

372
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 7: a lot of these people out of our country. Now

373
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 7: that said, we have had great success, but we're not

374
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 7: resting on our laurels here. We're shutting down the border

375
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 7: traffic coming into the country and we're dealing with what

376
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 7: Biden left us simultaneously. That's exactly what we have to do.

377
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 4: You're not only an Ohio State grad, you're also a

378
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 4: Yale law grad. And you just talked about where the

379
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,199
Speaker 4: resistance two point zero, I would say is coming from,

380
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 4: largely the six hundred and some odd district court judges

381
00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,719
Speaker 4: who are regularly putting in place nationwide in junctions.

382
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,399
Speaker 2: What's a fix to that?

383
00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:06,880
Speaker 4: And are even you surprised by how aggressive the judiciary

384
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:10,400
Speaker 4: has been to try to strip the president's executive authority?

385
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 7: You know, I'm not surprised by it, because again, the president.

386
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:14,440
Speaker 2: Actually expected this.

387
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 7: He told us this would happen, you know, he felt

388
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,520
Speaker 7: and I think he was right about this that you know,

389
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 7: the left felt defeated in a certain way, that there

390
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,760
Speaker 7: were a lot of you know, grassroots activists that just

391
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,719
Speaker 7: weren't nearly as fired up in twenty twenty four as

392
00:20:29,720 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 7: they were in twenty sixteen. And he's talking about people

393
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 7: on the far left. But he said that, look, the

394
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 7: courts are going to try to stop everything that we do.

395
00:20:36,920 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 7: And it's actually not just immigration. I mean, the courts

396
00:20:40,400 --> 00:20:43,879
Speaker 7: have tried to stop Pete Hegseth from not allowing you know,

397
00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:49,120
Speaker 7: transgender military personnel to continue serving. They've done a lot

398
00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 7: I mean, which goes to the heart of military readiness,

399
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 7: right the Secretary of Defense saying that, you know, if

400
00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 7: you're dealing with a serious mental health issue, our compassion

401
00:20:57,119 --> 00:21:00,280
Speaker 7: goes with you, but you can't be deployed to the

402
00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 7: battlefield like that. That is the heart of the president

403
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,840
Speaker 7: and the Secretary of Defense's authorities. And so you have

404
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 7: these district courts who really want to run the country

405
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 7: and have decided that they are actually in charge of

406
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:15,119
Speaker 7: the United States of America. There's this very funny I

407
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 7: think headline from the Babylon be that was, you know,

408
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,760
Speaker 7: something like Donald Trump considers resigning to become a very

409
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 7: powerful district court judge. But it's one of these jokes

410
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,719
Speaker 7: with a kernel of truth, which is that the district

411
00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 7: courts in this country have tried to take upon themselves

412
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,600
Speaker 7: powers that belong to the President of the United States.

413
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 7: And it's funny, guys, you know, you hear the media

414
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 7: and they'll say, well, this is a constitutional crisis. And

415
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 7: the constitutional crisis is not Donald Trump refusing to allow

416
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,040
Speaker 7: the district courts to govern the country. The crisis is

417
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,680
Speaker 7: the district courts trying to govern the country, and our approaches.

418
00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 7: We're fighting it legally, of course, we're taking some of

419
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 7: these cases to the Supreme Court and we think we're

420
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 7: going to get success there. We're finding alternative methods to

421
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 7: do what we need to do in compliance with the law.

422
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 7: And we're just going to have to keep on fighting this,

423
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,879
Speaker 7: you know, day by day, figuring out where the district courts.

424
00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,399
Speaker 7: And it's to be clear, it's not all district courts,

425
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 7: it's the far left crazies. But when these far left

426
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 7: crazies stop and try to prevent the president from doing

427
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 7: his job, we've got to do it through alternative means,

428
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 7: and that's what we're trying to do.

429
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 1: We're speaking of Vice President Vance, and mister Vice President,

430
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: let me ask you about how things are going at

431
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,760
Speaker 1: this stage with not just identifying the waste, fraud and

432
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 1: abuse within the government, a big mission that DOGE has

433
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 1: taken upon itself. But what we can expect now, how

434
00:22:36,320 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: much of this do you think has been completed when

435
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,879
Speaker 1: you look at Elon and Doje's mission. Does Congress have

436
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: to play a major role with recisions? Essentially, we know

437
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,439
Speaker 1: there's a lot of shenanigans going on, but how do

438
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: we actually get the shenanigans in government spending to stop?

439
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:52,199
Speaker 2: Where are we on that?

440
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:54,359
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think we're making a lot of progress. I

441
00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:57,120
Speaker 7: wouldn't say that it's done by any means. And yes,

442
00:22:57,200 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 7: Congress has a role because here, here's what happens. If

443
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 7: DOGE and Elon find ten billion dollars of spending, that's

444
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,000
Speaker 7: just ridiculous. That's not consistent with the law or with

445
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 7: the administration's policy priorities. That money just kind of sits there,

446
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,800
Speaker 7: and so it's still been taxed from the American people.

447
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 7: And if we want to use it to pay down

448
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 7: debt or to give it back to the American people

449
00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 7: through tax relief. Then that does require an Act of Congress,

450
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:23,080
Speaker 7: and I think Congress is very willing to do it.

451
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:24,719
Speaker 7: But I don't know if you saw. I think it

452
00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 7: was today or maybe yesterday, a report came out that

453
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 7: Treasury actually is borrowing less money than they expected to borrow.

454
00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,200
Speaker 7: And I think that's because of the success of DOGE.

455
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 7: You're seeing them make meaningful cuts in some of these

456
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 7: crazy foreign aid programs. But I also think they're finding

457
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,199
Speaker 7: a lot of fraud in programs that are meant for

458
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 7: American citizens that are going either to illegal aliens or

459
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 7: to complete fraudsters. And so I think DOGE is making

460
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,159
Speaker 7: a lot of progress, but it's not done, and I

461
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 7: don't think it's ever going to be truly done right.

462
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 7: This is one of these problems that we have to

463
00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,760
Speaker 7: continually fight against. And the reason why it was such

464
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,240
Speaker 7: a shock to the systems. We had allowed the waste

465
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 7: and the fraud to become so endemic in the way

466
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 7: that we did government in this country, and I don't

467
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,119
Speaker 7: think we should ever go back. And I actually do think,

468
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 7: and maybe this is too optimistic, that when all the

469
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:16,359
Speaker 7: political controversy is cleared, we look back on this a

470
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,040
Speaker 7: few years from now, we're going to realize that doges

471
00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 7: saved the American people a lot of money, that cut

472
00:24:21,880 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 7: a lot of fraud out of our government, and that

473
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 7: even some Democrats are going to say, well, we have

474
00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,720
Speaker 7: to keep doing this because we can't just let hundreds

475
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 7: of billions of dollars of fraud every single year become

476
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 7: part of how the US government functions.

477
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 4: We're talking to Vice President jd Vance. You guys have

478
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:42,040
Speaker 4: made tremendous strides with young men. The data continues to

479
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,560
Speaker 4: reflect that young men are breaking for both you and

480
00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 4: Donald Trump in big numbers. I think a big part

481
00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,600
Speaker 4: of that is because young men are over this idea

482
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 4: of men being able to play women's sports. I can't

483
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 4: believe this is even a thing. Nike, you may have seen,

484
00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 4: recently paid for a study all minors to study trans

485
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:06,679
Speaker 4: drugs and how it might impact athletics. How did the

486
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,840
Speaker 4: world get so broken here? What are companies like Nike

487
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:13,080
Speaker 4: even trying to accomplish? And this feels like an eighty

488
00:25:13,200 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 4: twenty ninety ten issue for Americans. Do you feel that

489
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 4: when you're out and about I.

490
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,160
Speaker 7: Do feel that. I definitely think it's a winning political

491
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 7: issue for the Republican Party, because it's just basic common sense, right.

492
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 7: I mean, people don't want women competing against grown men

493
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 7: and sports, especially in some of these contact sports where

494
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 7: the women could get injured. You know, I'm the father

495
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 7: of a three year old daughter. I'd like her to

496
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,520
Speaker 7: play sports. I think it teaches valuable life lessons, but

497
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,560
Speaker 7: I don't want her competing against grown men when she

498
00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,560
Speaker 7: does it. This is just, again, it's basic common sense.

499
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,480
Speaker 7: I think it's the basic masculine instinct to protect young women.

500
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:51,000
Speaker 7: And one of the ways you do that is to

501
00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,600
Speaker 7: not let, you know, a male boxer in the room

502
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 7: with a female boxer. Just things like that I think

503
00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 7: have turned it into a ninety ten issue, that basic

504
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:01,679
Speaker 7: common sense. But man, I think that so many of

505
00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,840
Speaker 7: these companies, Nike or otherwise, they got caught up in

506
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 7: this cultural zeitgeist of twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, and

507
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,600
Speaker 7: it's like, I don't know, maybe they just thought the

508
00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 7: progressors were going to win, and so they decided to

509
00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 7: fund this stuff to the hilt, not realizing that the

510
00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,280
Speaker 7: American people would have a rebellion against the craziness. I

511
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 7: think that rebellion on the trans issue in particular, I mean,

512
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 7: think about this, giving hormonal therapies to twelve year old kids,

513
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:31,399
Speaker 7: causing irreversible damage to their bodies, forcing young girls to

514
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,399
Speaker 7: compete against boys in sports, sometimes causing serious injury in

515
00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,119
Speaker 7: the process. I think this issue is such a bad

516
00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 7: loser among the American people that even some of the

517
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,720
Speaker 7: true believers have dropped it as a political issue. But

518
00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,760
Speaker 7: I think it's our job to remind the American people

519
00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 7: this is what they've tried to do, this is what

520
00:26:51,359 --> 00:26:54,919
Speaker 7: they're promising to do. The trans issue hasn't gone away.

521
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,720
Speaker 7: You just had some Democrats who are smart enough to

522
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 7: recognize it as a political loser. But yeah, they're going

523
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 7: to try to force twelve year olds to take cross

524
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 7: sex hormones, and they're going to try to force young

525
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,360
Speaker 7: girls to compete against young boys if we give these

526
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 7: guys power. The craziness, in other words, hasn't gotten away.

527
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,679
Speaker 7: They've just gotten a little bit better at hiding it.

528
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,160
Speaker 1: Mister Vice President, one war for you. Appreciate you making

529
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 1: the time for us today. The tariff's issue is something

530
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 1: that has gotten a lot of attension on this show

531
00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: across the country. For obvious reasons. People are very attuned

532
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 1: to what the Trump negotiations with these countries and his

533
00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,320
Speaker 1: approach to China is doing to the economy, the market

534
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: prices everything. Wall Street Journal being a little salty about

535
00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:39,440
Speaker 1: it today on their front page. What do you say

536
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 1: to anyone who is trying to steer Donald Trump away

537
00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,680
Speaker 1: from this course because they're a little nervous about the

538
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 1: tariff situation.

539
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,080
Speaker 7: So I've had so many conversations guys in private with

540
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 7: the President about this, and I think his public statements,

541
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 7: I mean, going back to the nineteen eighties, this is

542
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,760
Speaker 7: an issue that he feels very deeply about. I happen

543
00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 7: to think that he's right. He can'paiged on it. The

544
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 7: American people elected him on it. And there's a lot

545
00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 7: of misinformation out there. There's a lot of people saying, well,

546
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 7: Donald Trump doesn't know what he's actually doing. Look, I

547
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:13,080
Speaker 7: promise you I've spent many hours discussing these issues with

548
00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,520
Speaker 7: Donald Trump. You can disagree with him, but he knows

549
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,600
Speaker 7: exactly what he's doing. And here's the fundamental problem. America

550
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:23,520
Speaker 7: doesn't produce enough of its own stuff. That is the issue.

551
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:27,160
Speaker 7: We don't have enough manufacturing in our own country. We're

552
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 7: too reliant on sometimes hostile foreign powers to make the

553
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,880
Speaker 7: things that we need. And that's true in electronics, it's

554
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:36,679
Speaker 7: true in technology, it's true in God forbid. You know,

555
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 7: we've had shortages of critical pharmaceuticals in this country over

556
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 7: the last few years. We cannot have a real successful,

557
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 7: prosperous country if we're dependent on the communist Chinese for

558
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 7: the drugs that we put into the bodies of our children.

559
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,640
Speaker 7: And so what the President has said here is, yes,

560
00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:57,200
Speaker 7: this is going to be disruptive, Yes this is going

561
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,880
Speaker 7: to require some transition, but he's fundamentally to the basic

562
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:04,480
Speaker 7: process of manufacturing more in the United States, creating good

563
00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 7: paying jobs in the process, but more fundamentally making America

564
00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 7: more self reliant. And I think the problem is that

565
00:29:11,400 --> 00:29:14,320
Speaker 7: we had a bipartisan consensus in this country for forty

566
00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,240
Speaker 7: years that we could just ship all of our heavy

567
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 7: industry overseas, that we could ship a lot of our

568
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:23,120
Speaker 7: good jobs overseas, a lot of our factories, and that

569
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 7: somehow that would make the United States more prosperous. I

570
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,720
Speaker 7: think the reality is that it's made us weaker. It's

571
00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,680
Speaker 7: made us more dependent on the communists Chinese. And when

572
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:36,240
Speaker 7: you see, for example, the Chinese respond to the President's

573
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 7: trade policy by saying, well, we're going to cut off

574
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,360
Speaker 7: the United States from critical supplies that are necessary for

575
00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 7: the American people. Doesn't that just prove that Donald Trump

576
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 7: was right? How did we ever get into the position

577
00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 7: where the People's Republic of China could threaten the American

578
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 7: people with the loss of critical supplies? And given that

579
00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 7: we are in that position, Donald Trump is exactly right

580
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:00,200
Speaker 7: that we have to get out of it. I'm not

581
00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 7: going to tell you it's going to be easy, because

582
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,240
Speaker 7: it's not, but it's necessary, and I think the President

583
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 7: recognizes he is a once in a generation opportunity to

584
00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 7: do it.

585
00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 2: JD.

586
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 4: Van's, Vice President of the United States. Congratulations on the

594
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,480

595

596
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 4: Obamacare sucks. Their better healthcare plan choices than the so

00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,120

00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: A President Trump has. Here's a list.

623
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,600
Speaker 8: Removement from women's sports into dei in the federal government,

624
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,600
Speaker 8: in the US military, expanded oil and gas extraction to

625
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,719
Speaker 8: lower prices, taking steps to end unfair trade practices, secure

626
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 8: trillions of dollars in new investments in American manufacturing. Deported

627
00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 8: criminal illegal aliens, stood up religious liberty and rooted out

628
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,680
Speaker 8: anti Christian bias, Combated virulent anti semitism on college campuses.

629
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,080
Speaker 2: The list goes on and on and on.

630
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 8: That's just barely scratching the service.

631
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 2: That's in one hundred days. We're just getting started, just

632
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:30,360
Speaker 2: getting started.

633
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: That was Speaker Mike Johnson talking about Trump's first hundred days.

634
00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:36,360
Speaker 1: We are at that mark right now. The time is

635
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,240
Speaker 1: flying by, but certainly a lot already for the Trump

636
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 1: administration to tout in terms of accomplishments, and.

637
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,040
Speaker 2: A lot more on the way.

638
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: And Clay, I don't know if you saw this, but

639
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:51,840
Speaker 1: our friend Senator Tommy Tubberville, he went full A plus

640
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 1: in his grading here so I scaled mine down to

641
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 1: an A because I think you can't really give an

642
00:32:56,600 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 1: A plus. But Senator Tubberville he thinks you can play six.

643
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:01,360
Speaker 2: One hundred days.

644
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 9: What do you think a plus?

645
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 2: What else can he do? Larry?

646
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 9: They left it in a total mess. I was up

647
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 9: here for four years of Joe Biden. They did not

648
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,480
Speaker 9: do one thing for the American people or for this country.

649
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 9: They actually try to destroy it and everything went down.

650
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 9: Now President Trump has got foreign wars, he's got deportations,

651
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,280
Speaker 9: you know, the border, the tax cuts, he's trying to

652
00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:26,360
Speaker 9: save the economy. What a total disaster the Democrats created.

653
00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:28,640
Speaker 9: And they're on the steps of the of the capital,

654
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 9: you know, Kumbai Yah and all this kind of stuff

655
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:35,120
Speaker 9: going on, and they make absolutely no sense of what's happened,

656
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 9: and they don't know how to They don't have a

657
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,840
Speaker 9: clue how to fix anything, So they're just trying to

658
00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 9: create problems.

659
00:33:41,440 --> 00:33:43,479
Speaker 1: I think that's certainly the case. Democrats are just an

660
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: opposition party or a party of no. Now that when

661
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: you're out of power is always somewhat true. But you

662
00:33:49,760 --> 00:33:52,320
Speaker 1: can also say I don't like what he's doing, here's

663
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,800
Speaker 1: what should be done. Democrats just still chant about Hitler

664
00:33:55,880 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 1: and all kinds of exaggerated, crazy nonsense to oppose Trump.

665
00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 1: But Clay, here's one area where they're going after him

666
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:07,800
Speaker 1: using numbers. This has cut sixteen. CNN's Harry Engine yesterday

667
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: on the one hundred day mark saying, or just before

668
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 1: the hundred day mark, saying that the poll numbers aren't

669
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 1: in his favor.

670
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,440
Speaker 2: Play that one. These numbers are just horrible.

671
00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,359
Speaker 5: There's no way to sugarcoat it. And the first way

672
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,080
Speaker 5: we'll sort of point that out is we'll look at

673
00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:21,120
Speaker 5: where Donald Trump is now versus where he was one

674
00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 5: hundred days into his first presidency. And you see it here.

675
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 5: You don't have to be a mathematical genius. Forty one

676
00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 5: percent approve of him now. It was forty four percent

677
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:30,800
Speaker 5: back in twenty seventeen around.

678
00:34:30,560 --> 00:34:31,399
Speaker 7: The one hundred day mark.

679
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:34,280
Speaker 5: And what's so notable here is that throughout his second

680
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,840
Speaker 5: term as president, he tended to be running ahead of

681
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 5: where he was in his first term. No longer is

682
00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,600
Speaker 5: that the case. He has fallen below where he was

683
00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:43,640
Speaker 5: at this point in his first term. Of course, this

684
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 5: is just Trump. Let's compare him to other presidents. And

685
00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 5: I really think this kind of puts a bow on it,

686
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,480
Speaker 5: and you can see it here. You see the forty

687
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,520
Speaker 5: one percent. That is twelve points below Joe Biden. That's

688
00:34:53,560 --> 00:34:55,800
Speaker 5: three points below where he was in his first term.

689
00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: Shouldn't that tell us Clay that it doesn't matter If

690
00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: Biden was to twelve points ahead of where Trump is now,

691
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,680
Speaker 1: he had a failed presidency, he was a disaster, and

692
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: he was hiding dementia from the American people. That's just

693
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:10,839
Speaker 1: one example of or one data point toward. I don't

694
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:12,799
Speaker 1: care what Trump's pull numbers are right now. I care

695
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 1: that Trump is pursuing the agenda. That's what he's supposed

696
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,560
Speaker 1: to do, and people who are getting weak knees over

697
00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:19,719
Speaker 1: tariffs need to stiffen their spines a little bit.

698
00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 4: I also think that poll numbers for presidents only matter

699
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:28,120
Speaker 4: if they can run for reelection. We talked to jd.

700
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,360
Speaker 4: Vance at the top of the last hour. Jd Vance,

701
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 4: I imagine would like to be the successor of Trump.

702
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,759
Speaker 4: He is the person who would be running in some

703
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 4: way more than anyone on what the legacy of Trump is.

704
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,640
Speaker 4: If Trump has, as I think he will, a very

705
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:50,359
Speaker 4: popular legacy in twenty twenty eight, then I think JD.

706
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,840
Speaker 4: Vance will win the presidency because I would expect that

707
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,839
Speaker 4: JD will be the favorite in twenty twenty eight, and

708
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 4: as the vice president, he will be running on the

709
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 4: legacy of the president to some extent. Obviously, you try

710
00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 4: to also put your own spin forward on things. But look,

711
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,000
Speaker 4: I mean, this is the challenge that Kamala Harris had.

712
00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:11,759
Speaker 4: And whatever you think of Kamala Harris, and I think

713
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:15,200
Speaker 4: she was a very weak candidate. The reason she lost,

714
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,680
Speaker 4: in addition to being a weak candidate herself, was because

715
00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,840
Speaker 4: she said there wasn't anything that she would do that

716
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 4: was different than what Joe Biden had done. And when

717
00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 4: you have a profoundly unpopular sitting president and your answer

718
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:30,960
Speaker 4: is hey, more of the same, it's unlikely that the

719
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,040
Speaker 4: American public is going to respond favorably to you. But Buck,

720
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 4: here's what I think from the pole perspective, to the

721
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,480
Speaker 4: point you said weak need, I think that Trump came

722
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 4: in and said, we have major, huge, systemic issues that

723
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:49,600
Speaker 4: need to be solved. The border, I would argue, Buck,

724
00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:53,880
Speaker 4: is pretty much solved now. Deportation is a challenge, but

725
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:56,680
Speaker 4: in terms of allowing things to get worse, he solved

726
00:36:56,719 --> 00:37:00,000
Speaker 4: it in the first hundred days the global trade imbalance

727
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 4: and says this is a major battle that's going to

728
00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 4: continue for a long time.

729
00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 2: But he took it on.

730
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 4: And then the other one is the fact that we

731
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:11,279
Speaker 4: have a thirty six trillion dollar national debt. He tried

732
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 4: to take that on. Where do you think the negativity

733
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 4: is coming from. Not the border where overwhelmingly people agree

734
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:20,439
Speaker 4: with him. It's taking big swings and big cuts at

735
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 4: global trade and at the overall economic basis of our budget.

736
00:37:27,239 --> 00:37:29,640
Speaker 4: He's taken some lumps there because he's trying to fix

737
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,960
Speaker 4: two really substantial issues.

738
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,640
Speaker 1: Well, this is where the psychology of propaganda also is

739
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 1: so important, because they were talking about a Trump recession

740
00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:43,000
Speaker 1: or even a Trump depression just a couple of weeks

741
00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 1: ago when there was a choppy week in the markets,

742
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 1: up down, up down, and you could say, well, Buck,

743
00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:51,960
Speaker 1: clearly we're not in market's up today. We're doing backflips

744
00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 1: over it. But the point is they can make people

745
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 1: feel negatively about things, even when they're hoarding is premature

746
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:05,720
Speaker 1: or just flatly untrue. Right, So if you tell people

747
00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,720
Speaker 1: enough things are about you know, they've done interesting, interesting

748
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:11,200
Speaker 1: studies about this. If you're a person who is just

749
00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:16,319
Speaker 1: positive about other people in general, people view you more positively,

750
00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 1: which makes sense, right. And if you're somebody who's always

751
00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 1: talking smack, who's always saying that, you know, Sally from

752
00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:25,920
Speaker 1: Accounting needs to, you know, work harder, or you know,

753
00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 1: Joe from Accounts Receivable needs to put in more time, whatever,

754
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:32,399
Speaker 1: if you're always the negative person, people tend to view

755
00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:34,319
Speaker 1: you more negatively.

756
00:38:34,719 --> 00:38:36,560
Speaker 2: Well. This is true of news reporting as well.

757
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:40,640
Speaker 1: If you're just talking negative stories endlessly, even if those

758
00:38:40,680 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 1: stories are exaggerated or turn out not to be what

759
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 1: you initially reported, you can make people think things are

760
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 1: worse than they are. And this is why Democrats also

761
00:38:49,600 --> 00:38:52,560
Speaker 1: rush with the and the Democrat aligned media rushes with

762
00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:56,560
Speaker 1: the negative narrative as fast as they can. They don't

763
00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 1: want to wait for things to play out because they

764
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,920
Speaker 1: want to turn the per against the administration because this

765
00:39:02,000 --> 00:39:04,400
Speaker 1: is politics, right, That's how they view it. They just

766
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:06,840
Speaker 1: want people to think things are bad. Remember when to

767
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,279
Speaker 1: Biden they had this in the opposite direction when for

768
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 1: a while Biden's strategy, i think going into the midterms

769
00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:16,319
Speaker 1: and then afterwards for a while Clay was the economy's great.

770
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,000
Speaker 1: People just don't know how great it is right.

771
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 2: That was the Yeah, that was their argument. That was

772
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:22,200
Speaker 2: their argument.

773
00:39:22,200 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 1: You don't even know how great things are for you

774
00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:25,920
Speaker 1: right now, you just need to pay attention to how

775
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 1: great they are. It's like, well, that did not exactly resonate.

776
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 1: They're trying a different version of sure, you think things

777
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: are pretty much okay and actually going pretty well. They're

778
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,640
Speaker 1: actually terrible though, and that's what they've been doing, certainly

779
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,879
Speaker 1: for the last month in the economy. So the long

780
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:46,120
Speaker 1: story short, I think the poll numbers don't matter. Why

781
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 1: would they matter right now? No one's going to care

782
00:39:48,120 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 1: what the polls were now, in six months or even

783
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,239
Speaker 1: in six weeks, So it's just an effort to try

784
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:54,640
Speaker 1: to create negative perception.

785
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,840
Speaker 4: I think they would matter maybe if there were a

786
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:02,680
Speaker 4: more popular politician in a Marria, and there isn't one, right, so,

787
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 4: I mean if Democrats the Biden poll numbers always occurred

788
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 4: with the shadow of a Trump presidency and a Trump

789
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:14,359
Speaker 4: reelection bid hanging out there. I know we talked about

790
00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 4: Wes Moore in the last hour and who the Democrat JB. Pritzker,

791
00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 4: Peter may or Pete that are trying to kind of

792
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:23,040
Speaker 4: set the agenda to try to be the nominee in

793
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 4: twenty twenty eight. Who's a more popular politician right now

794
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,800
Speaker 4: than Trump? Is there any Democrat? I mean, the Democrat

795
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:34,879
Speaker 4: approval ratings in Congress make the Trump approval ratings look phenomenal.

796
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 4: So I think you have to look at it in

797
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 4: the context of is anyone else doing better? You also

798
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,880
Speaker 4: hit on something that I always thought was super fascinating.

799
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:47,719
Speaker 4: Do you know what the number one likelihood of who

800
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 4: was going to get sued as a doctor was? You

801
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:52,799
Speaker 4: talked about how people are seen. Do you know what

802
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 4: they've studied from.

803
00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 1: A if you don't like If you don't like the doctor,

804
00:40:56,960 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 1: the chance of the doctor of you suing the doctor

805
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:00,319
Speaker 1: goes up like tens or.

806
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:01,840
Speaker 2: Something bedside manner.

807
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,920
Speaker 4: It's not does the doctor screw up a lot the

808
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 4: If the doctor has a likable comportment, the odds of

809
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 4: him being sued or her being sued much lower the

810
00:41:12,600 --> 00:41:17,080
Speaker 4: bedside manor aspect there, And so I think that factors

811
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,440
Speaker 4: in on some level.

812
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 2: Trump is now a known quantity.

813
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,920
Speaker 4: And the thing that Trump got right back in twenty

814
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 4: sixteen when he said it is, Hey, I could shoot

815
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,560
Speaker 4: somebody on Fifth Avenue, and my base is not leaving me.

816
00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 4: And I'm paraphrasing him on that quote, but that was

817
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 4: basically the quote. The Trump base is not leaving. Now,

818
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:36,800
Speaker 4: we've all we've talked about.

819
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,400
Speaker 2: This for some time. What is the Trump base?

820
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 4: I think forty percent of America is died in the

821
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,640
Speaker 4: wall Trump team, and so he's gonna have that forty

822
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:50,640
Speaker 4: percent no matter what. He got a big percentage growth

823
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,399
Speaker 4: I think in the twenty twenty four election. And now

824
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,880
Speaker 4: the question is I think this is going to ultimately

825
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,160
Speaker 4: determine everything. What's the economy?

826
00:41:58,239 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 2: Like?

827
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:00,200
Speaker 4: This is what I told you, Buck. I think I

828
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:01,959
Speaker 4: said that I was going to tease this, and I'll

829
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,400
Speaker 4: I told you inflation was number one. I'll hit you

830
00:42:04,400 --> 00:42:07,600
Speaker 4: with the other things, but it's inflation overwhelmingly. If the

831
00:42:07,640 --> 00:42:10,800
Speaker 4: price of gas keeps coming down and if the price

832
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 4: of groceries does not go up, the average American is

833
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 4: going to consider Trump to have done a decent job.

834
00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:18,840
Speaker 2: I'll also later.

835
00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:22,319
Speaker 4: On foreign affairs, doesn't feel like we're very close to

836
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,920
Speaker 4: a war now. I hope I'm not jinxing it, but

837
00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:29,080
Speaker 4: it feels like for Americans in terms of our stability

838
00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 4: and safety around the world, I feel pretty good about that.

839
00:42:33,239 --> 00:42:35,719
Speaker 1: As we If Canada decides to just get it together

840
00:42:35,760 --> 00:42:37,360
Speaker 1: and invade us, I am going to blame you for

841
00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:37,880
Speaker 1: this now.

842
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 2: And this will be on me.

843
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,800
Speaker 4: If Canada or Mexico, Canada or Mexico Costa Rica decides

844
00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,240
Speaker 4: to finally get an army and decides to try to invade,

845
00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:45,920
Speaker 4: this will be on me.

846
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 1: Because I just said I feel very safe, but in general,

847
00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:51,840
Speaker 1: I feel like we're a long way from any wars. Also,

848
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,040
Speaker 1: I would just say, what would people want Trump to

849
00:42:54,080 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 1: be working on right now? Who voted for him? Yeah,

850
00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:00,560
Speaker 1: that he's not doing. I think that's an import question

851
00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 1: to ask if this is what is the thing that

852
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: Trump said I will in the first hundred days do

853
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 1: the following, start to do the following.

854
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:08,319
Speaker 7: Right.

855
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,160
Speaker 1: I'm not saying the results are all in or that

856
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,840
Speaker 1: everything has been accomplished, far from it. But what is

857
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 1: the area of focus where Trump has not focused and

858
00:43:16,560 --> 00:43:18,879
Speaker 1: we were told he would. I cannot think of it

859
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:21,640
Speaker 1: because I don't think it exists. I think he has

860
00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: come out and started going after everything he said he

861
00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:27,920
Speaker 1: would go after. Deportations are in the early phase, but

862
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,440
Speaker 1: it is happening. The border is secure. It happened even

863
00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:33,200
Speaker 1: faster than I anticipated that it would. He's getting the

864
00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,200
Speaker 1: negotiations going on tariffs, he has the negotiations going on

865
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:40,960
Speaker 1: Russia Ukraine, he is looking at Iran and Israel, and

866
00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: you know mid EA's peace, et cetera.

867
00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,560
Speaker 2: What is he not doing that he said he would do.

868
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: That's I think in a lot of ways, the real

869
00:43:49,280 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 1: test of the first hundred days is that, you know,

870
00:43:52,960 --> 00:43:55,319
Speaker 1: promises made, promises kept goes a little bit too far

871
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:58,759
Speaker 1: because well, have we gotten the results yet that we

872
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 1: need know? But what focus is important? And the focus

873
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: has been on what he said it would be, And

874
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:08,319
Speaker 1: I think in the first hundred days of an administration,

875
00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,279
Speaker 1: that's about the best you can ask for. Is you're

876
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: actually doing this stuff right. You're trying to do this

877
00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:18,840
Speaker 1: stuff actively. You're not delaying, you're not prevaricating, You're not saying, oh,

878
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:20,760
Speaker 1: I don't want to go as hard in this direction

879
00:44:20,840 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 1: as I said, I wull that was just a fool

880
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:23,520
Speaker 1: you idiots to vote for me.

881
00:44:23,960 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 2: He said, no, Okay, let's go.

882
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,080
Speaker 1: And so I think that there's a lot of credit

883
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: that should be given to him on that and the

884
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,360
Speaker 1: other stuff Clay that we're talking about. With the loss

885
00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,560
Speaker 1: of some support in the polls. A lot of that's

886
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 1: media perception. A lot of that is people freak out quickly. Okay,

887
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: you know, they hear that there's a recession coming.

888
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:41,800
Speaker 2: They go, oh, my gosh, the recession.

889
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,399
Speaker 1: It's going to be fine. All right, Let's talk about

890
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,560
Speaker 1: Preborn for a second here. The Preborn Network of clinics

891
00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,400
Speaker 1: has a team of people who have a critical mission

892
00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:52,840
Speaker 1: saving the lives of unborn babies. They see the access

893
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 1: and widespread availability of abortions for pregnant women who are

894
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,799
Speaker 1: debating such a decision, and Preborn steps in and does

895
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:01,759
Speaker 1: all they can to help convinced that pregnant mom that

896
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 1: there's a better option for her than abortion, life for

897
00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,000
Speaker 1: her baby. And one way that Preborn achieves this is

898
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:12,000
Speaker 1: by giving the gift of an ultrasound, because that ultrasound

899
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:14,800
Speaker 1: allows that mom to meet her unborn child, to hear

900
00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 1: the heartbeat, and see the movements of the child within her.

901
00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 1: They accomplish this goal with just twenty eight dollars in expense. Okay,

902
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 1: that is fantastic because it allows them to put so

903
00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 1: much time and effort toward actually the mission helping moms

904
00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:33,240
Speaker 1: in this process. Preborn operate its clinics in communities across

905
00:45:33,239 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 1: the country where abortion rates are tragically high. They do

906
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 1: this on purpose because Preborn gives resources and services to women,

907
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:44,839
Speaker 1: including that ultrasound to help save lives every day. In

908
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 1: twenty years, the Preborn clinics have saved three hundred thousand

909
00:45:48,120 --> 00:45:51,680
Speaker 1: plus babies to donate securely to preborn. They need your help,

910
00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: the pro life community. They don't get a dollar from

911
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 1: the government. Dial pound two five zero and say the

918
00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:24,240
Speaker 4: Welcome back in Clay Travis buck Sexton Show. I mentioned

919
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:27,799
Speaker 4: this poll earlier, and I do think it's interesting. This

920
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:32,000
Speaker 4: is from NBC News. They say they surveyed nearly twenty

921
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:37,640
Speaker 4: thousand adults and asked top economic issue for you and

922
00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 4: your family. Forty four percent, Buck said inflation. So if

923
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,440
Speaker 4: I were giving advice to anyone in the Trump team

924
00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:50,120
Speaker 4: over the next one hundred days, I would say manighacally

925
00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 4: focus on bringing the cost of goods down, because I

926
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,040
Speaker 4: think that's the number one way that people tend to

927
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:02,279
Speaker 4: react right now to the economy. Second is taxes. We know,

928
00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:05,640
Speaker 4: Buck that the bill is rolling through, the big beautiful

929
00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,440
Speaker 4: bill that will enshrine the tax cuts. We'll take some

930
00:47:08,520 --> 00:47:13,560
Speaker 4: of your calls on that. Third is the national debt. Again,

931
00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:17,399
Speaker 4: these are big, major systemic issues, and then you get

932
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,240
Speaker 4: into housing, the stock market, which is in many ways

933
00:47:20,280 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 4: a snapshot of whatever the economy is at any given time.

934
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:27,520
Speaker 4: Those are things that I think Trump gets. But if

935
00:47:27,560 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 4: I were saying, if you could focus on one thing

936
00:47:30,320 --> 00:47:33,839
Speaker 4: and solve one thing, inflation is down. But I think

937
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 4: if you could change the idea that Biden built in

938
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:39,719
Speaker 4: that things are going to cost far too much, that

939
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 4: would be the most helpful in the next one hundred days.

940
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,319
Speaker 4: It's what I would say to Trump, Hey, if you

941
00:47:45,360 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 4: were going to be judged on something, what would you

942
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 4: want to be judged on? Bringing inflation down and cost

943
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:54,960
Speaker 4: of goods being not a massive thing that everybody's obsessed with.

944
00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 1: It would be nice, though, at some point to get

945
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,160
Speaker 1: a reduction in rates here. That could be You know,

946
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,279
Speaker 1: Trump has been very vocal about that. I think he's

947
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,840
Speaker 1: right about that too. Free up a little bit of

948
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:08,080
Speaker 1: liquidity in our economy would be a good thing. I

949
00:48:08,080 --> 00:48:12,080
Speaker 1: think people are waiting to make moves based upon this

950
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:13,840
Speaker 1: that could be very helpful overall.

951
00:48:13,960 --> 00:48:15,880
Speaker 2: So we shall see.

952
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:20,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, the main thing is you don't want overspending

953
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:24,240
Speaker 1: like we saw under Biden, because that is what creates inflation,

954
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:28,240
Speaker 1: and it really is a tax on the working class

955
00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:31,359
Speaker 1: and those who are trying to pay bills and maybe

956
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,720
Speaker 1: even get ahead of bills. That is what ends up happening.

957
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:37,959
Speaker 1: This is your dollars are worthless. You have to pay

958
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 1: more for the things that you need. Asset holders do fine.

959
00:48:41,600 --> 00:48:44,760
Speaker 1: People that have big stock accounts, you know, multiple homes,

960
00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:47,359
Speaker 1: own businesses.

961
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:47,320
Speaker 2: Et cetera.

962
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 1: They generally do much better when inflation is high, or

963
00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 1: rather they can weather the inflation much better. But you know,

964
00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 1: the Treasury Department is going to borrow five hundred and

965
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 1: fourteen billion dollars this quarter. According to Bloomberg Clay. This

966
00:48:59,800 --> 00:49:01,799
Speaker 1: is a three hundred and twenty percent increase from its

967
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,279
Speaker 1: previous estimate. We're still spending too much money, everybody. But

968
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:08,600
Speaker 1: I guess this is the problem, is that the biggest

969
00:49:08,640 --> 00:49:11,400
Speaker 1: challenge I think for Doje all long has been so

970
00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,520
Speaker 1: we can't touch seventy percent of spending, Let's see we

971
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:15,280
Speaker 1: can do to make the other thirty percent of spending

972
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:16,240
Speaker 1: not so crazy.

973
00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:18,240
Speaker 2: That's not good.

974
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:21,759
Speaker 1: Enough, but nobody wants to hear it.

975
00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 2: Nobody wants to hear it all.

976
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:25,160
Speaker 4: I mean, this is the thing that we're speeding at

977
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:31,319
Speaker 4: rapidly is frankly, if you don't address the thirty six

978
00:49:31,400 --> 00:49:34,880
Speaker 4: trillion dollars in debt sooner or later, the bill is

979
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:38,920
Speaker 4: going to get paid, maybe by your grandkids, but economic

980
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:43,280
Speaker 4: reality doesn't disappear. We can't continue to live on borrowed money.

981
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,439
Speaker 1: And yet we're going to try. Yes, this is unfortunately,

982
00:49:48,520 --> 00:49:52,360
Speaker 1: this is what we're doing. So yeah, great, no doubt.

983
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:59,080
