You 14 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 4: have a seven hundred percent tariff from Japan on American rice. 15 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:49,879 Speaker 4: You have a one hundred percent tariff from India on 16 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 4: American agricultural products. You have nearly a three hundred percent 17 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 4: terraft from Canada on American butter and American cheese. This 18 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:01,200 Speaker 4: makes it virtually impossible for American products to be imported 19 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 4: into these markets, and it has put a lot of 20 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 4: Americans out of business and out of work over the 21 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:06,760 Speaker 4: past several decades. 22 00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 1: So it's time for reciprocity. 23 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 5: It's been a lot time coming. 24 00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:22,399 Speaker 1: Let's chase come, Yes, it will. 25 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 5: We've seen some of our most imbalanced trading partners come 26 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 5: forward and want to drop their tariffs. So by President 27 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 5: Trump pushing forward with a tariff plan reciprocal tariffs, if you. 28 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: Drop yours will drop hours. 29 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,399 Speaker 5: We are already seeing some of the worst defenders come down. 30 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: Lot time coming. But let's chase. 31 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 6: Yes. 32 00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 5: President Trump's created a win win situation here. Either the 33 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 5: tariff barriers come down, the US can. 34 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 1: Export more, trade is fairer. 35 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 5: It's always been free, but not fairer, and then we 36 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 5: or if they. 37 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 1: Don't do it, we'll take in substantial revenues. It's love 38 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: time chase come. Yes, we have to care about Americans. 39 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 1: You know the global view that. 40 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 2: Says if I move car manufacturing out of Michigan, out 41 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: of Ohio to Mexico and to Canada, does that lower 42 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 2: our costs? It does, But what does it do to 43 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 2: Americans who live in Michigan and Ohio. 44 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: You know what it does. It decimates their community. 45 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: You lose a US steel from Pittsburgh, you are going 46 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 2: to blitz Pittsburgh and that whole community. 47 00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: So someone's got to care about these workers. Someone's got 48 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: to care about these people. 49 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 2: And the combination of bringing that back, that manufacturing back, 50 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,760 Speaker 2: or you don't want to bring it back, pay the 51 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 2: tar from the way in the Door. 52 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 5: The Love. 53 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 7: Cary Andrew Breichbark created a situation a long time coming 54 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 7: where he managed to get a story revealed. What was 55 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 7: the name Shirod, what was the lady's name? He managed 56 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 7: to get a story revealed about the fraud and discriminatory 57 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 7: practices of the Department of Agriculture. And I'm trying to 58 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 7: remember exactly how it went, but I remember the brilliant 59 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 7: move was he created kind of a scandal around a 60 00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 7: story that when it was you had to explain the 61 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 7: other story, and in the explanation he managed. 62 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 6: To get that story in the news, which was the point. 63 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 6: Because New York Times loves to say democracy dies in darkness, 64 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 6: but actually they smother democracy to the extent that we 65 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 6: are a democratic republic that is truly a functioning representative 66 00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 6: style government. The New York Times works very hard to 67 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 6: prevent most Americans from having any input into our government 68 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 6: because they think most Americans are racist and idiots and 69 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 6: backwater and dumb and get bad information. So they can 70 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 6: you can actually kill a topic, You can win over 71 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 6: a topic on your side by simply preventing a topics 72 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 6: discussion to ever get any oxygen and if if nobody 73 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 6: talks about it, it's as if it didn't happen. So 74 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 6: if we're to talk about tariffs, it's important that we 75 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 6: understand what Trump has done before he ever imposes a 76 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 6: single tariff on another country. Trump has made every American aware, 77 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:16,720 Speaker 6: guess what other countries don't let your products in. If 78 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,239 Speaker 6: we're going to have a nationalistic pride in the products 79 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 6: of our country and we're going to say I want 80 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 6: American products to be sent around the world, do Americans 81 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 6: not care about that anymore? 82 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:29,280 Speaker 1: I don't know. 83 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 6: I fear that that may be the case, in which 84 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 6: case this falls on deaf ears. I fear that Americans 85 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 6: no longer think I want a robust manufacturing economy that 86 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 6: we can send products around the world. I fear that 87 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 6: people saying, who, why do I care? 88 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,880 Speaker 1: And I fear that instead the only thing. 89 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 6: People care about is I want cheap products, because I 90 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 6: want to buy a lot of stuff, and I can 91 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 6: buy more stuff if it's all cheap. 92 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,520 Speaker 1: I am not opposed to consumption, whether. 93 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 6: That be conspicuous consumption so that everybody knows you're making money, 94 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 6: or so that you're in the club, or because you 95 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 6: need it as your therapy. Some people have to buy 96 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 6: things to feel better about themselves because they were once 97 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 6: denied things, or you need to show people that you 98 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:18,960 Speaker 6: have things. 99 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: I don't care why you consume. I'm not a problem 100 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: with it at all. 101 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 6: I think that there's a certain amount of action to 102 00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:31,239 Speaker 6: the commerce of purchasing things that goes far and above 103 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 6: what we quote unquote need to survive, and it gets 104 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 6: into wants, and those wants or for all sorts of. 105 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 1: Reasons that we've talked about already. 106 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 6: And I think that that creates economic activity that creates wealth, 107 00:06:44,960 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 6: and there is something to be said for this sort 108 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 6: of false wealth creation occasioned by constant commercial activity. Go 109 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 6: to a mall to the we still have any and 110 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 6: watch people walking along ambling without any real purpose. You 111 00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 6: go to a third world country, you don't do that. 112 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 6: In a third world country. You go to the shop, 113 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 6: you buy your item, and you go home. In this country, shopping, 114 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 6: the act of engaging in commerce is an activity. It's 115 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 6: like a hobby. Now, there are people that will tell 116 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 6: you that that's morally bankrupt, or it's terrible or whatever else. 117 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 6: But I'm going to tell you that is a basis 118 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 6: of the American economy in other countries, that's not true. 119 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 6: So because we are a country that engages in a 120 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,760 Speaker 6: great deal of commercial activity and we're good at it. 121 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 6: We created these malls, we created you know, all these 122 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 6: different ways you could engage in commerce. We created the 123 00:07:41,200 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 6: home delivery system to the extent that the world has 124 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 6: now attempted to copycat what we've done all of those things. 125 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 6: And what Trump has exposed is the rest of the 126 00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 6: world is not playing fair. So whatever you may think 127 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 6: about the imposition of tariffs, here, Trumps has made the 128 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 6: point that nobody seemed to know already, and I'm glad 129 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 6: he did. We're gonna talk about tariff's We're gonna talk 130 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 6: about how important this is. We're talking about how that 131 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 6: affects every American and the strength of this country. This, 132 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 6: you know, Trump's got us talking about serious stuff. This 133 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 6: is what we ought to be talking about economic policy. 134 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 6: This is good, This is heavy stuff. These are good times. 135 00:08:21,400 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 6: These are the good old days. 136 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: Folks. You've got dumb Michael Berry show. 137 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 6: Do you know which song has a Hammon organ and 138 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 6: shouldn't because it ruins the song? 139 00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,479 Speaker 1: I'm not one song. Everything. 140 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 6: You could put a hammon organ into every song I 141 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:41,719 Speaker 6: don't I don't care. 142 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: I love it. I love the sound, I love the vibe, 143 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: I love what. 144 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 6: It brings to it. You know, I find it really 145 00:08:53,360 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 6: really interesting how how our economic policy affects every single 146 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 6: American and how few people are engaging in this conversation. 147 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: But if I were to say, Hey. 148 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 6: Jasmine Crockett, who's a congressman who you don't even know 149 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,400 Speaker 6: where she's from. You might know she's from Texas, but 150 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 6: she's that kind of ghetto Hucci Mama black woman that 151 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 6: is said that the governor of Texas she called him 152 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 6: hot Wheels because he's in a wheelchair. Everybody has an opinion. 153 00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:36,960 Speaker 6: Everybody has an opinion. People have opinions. They bother to 154 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 6: have opinion, they bother to learn more. If there's a 155 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 6: school shooting in a state they've never been to, by 156 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 6: a guy they don't know, having children they'll never meet, 157 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 6: and it's the same fact pattern that it's been thirty 158 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 6: five times, they will dig into the name of the school, 159 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 6: the name of the town, the number of people killed, 160 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 6: how long it happened. They'll try to find every bit 161 00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 6: of footage they can possibly dig up. They will review 162 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 6: it again twenty two times for no particular reason. They're 163 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 6: not in this business. They're not preventing the next one, 164 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 6: and they will indulge in a very very lengthy analysis 165 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 6: of that whole event. But when it comes to the 166 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 6: trade policy that will determine whether their grandchildren will be 167 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:24,239 Speaker 6: wealthy or poor, they will offhandedly say. 168 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, if Trump's doing it, I 169 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: don't know. I just tay two. I don't know. 170 00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 6: I don't know about the whole terrorists, I don't know. 171 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 6: I you know, it sounds to me, complicated. It's what 172 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,840 Speaker 6: it sounds like, really complicated. Okay, we're doing complicated, all right? 173 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 6: This is this is as important as whether we go 174 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 6: to war. This is really really important. What products are 175 00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 6: you going to be able to buy and at what cost? 176 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,599 Speaker 6: What products that our neighbors make are going to be 177 00:10:55,679 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 6: sent abroad. Are companies who are currently headquartered and operating 178 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 6: outside of the United States, are they going to move 179 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 6: operations to the United States? Because if they do, here's 180 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,559 Speaker 6: what's going to happen. They're not going to move operations 181 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 6: to the Blue States. You do understand this, right, If 182 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,679 Speaker 6: you look at where the growth is of foreign owned 183 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 6: corporations that develop manufacturing operations. 184 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: Here. 185 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:29,120 Speaker 6: You look at Alabama where BMW built a big operation. 186 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:37,079 Speaker 6: They're going to bring those operations to Texas, Tennessee, Arkansas. 187 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:42,040 Speaker 6: Arkansas is going Arkansas is going to boom. Arkansas is 188 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 6: absolutely going to boom. First of all, you've got the 189 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 6: Walmart headquarters, and Bentonville is already surging before all this. 190 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 6: Bentonville is becoming what nash Vegas was twenty years ago 191 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 6: before it was overrun by West Coast. And that's probably 192 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,440 Speaker 6: not a good thing for Bentonville because it'll start cool 193 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 6: because it'll be kind of you know that, They'll they'll 194 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 6: open a couple of sushi restaurants, and the people of 195 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 6: Bentonville will go, this is cool, man. We only ever 196 00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 6: had barbecue and burgers, and now we got it. We 197 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,880 Speaker 6: got a sushi restaurant here in Bentonville. I got a 198 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 6: friend who she and her husband just moved to Bentonville. 199 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:24,000 Speaker 6: And and then they'll they'll be happy with their with 200 00:12:24,080 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 6: their new with their fancy new uh sushi restaurant, and 201 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 6: then they'll be uh, you know all that.

Those vile white liberals, and they are vile. 208 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 6: They're single in their twenties, they're arrogant, they wear t vos, 209 00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 6: they wear they wear sandals that that that z and 210 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 6: open toad shoes. And the women are ugly and the 211 00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 6: men are wimpy, and they're very nasty, and they want 212 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 6: bike lanes everywhere. They'll start shutting down the roads and 213 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 6: wanting bike lanes. They'll start they'll start organizing and voting. 214 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 6: They'll create social discord because they love social discord. 215 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: It makes them feel alive. 216 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 6: So they'll start with a gay thing, and they're going 217 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 6: to training thing, and then they'll go into and they'll 218 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 6: just have freakishness all the time. Before you know it, 219 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 6: Bentonville is booming and growing and with all the wrong people. 220 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,319 Speaker 1: And they've done it to Colorado. 221 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 6: I mean, you look at look at how many great 222 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:51,719 Speaker 6: places in America white liberals have destroyed in the relatively 223 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:56,040 Speaker 6: recent past. When I when we went on in Portland, Oregon, 224 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 6: I think it was twenty two thousand and seven or 225 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 6: two thousand and eight, and we used to go and 226 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,400 Speaker 6: spend the summer there, my wife and kids and I 227 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,000 Speaker 6: and we would rent a house and we'd hang out 228 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 6: with Marshall Burgess who was now the market manager there, 229 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,880 Speaker 6: and Robert Dove who was the market manager before, and 230 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,880 Speaker 6: Jennifer and all our team that we worked with there. 231 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,840 Speaker 1: We loved that place. 232 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 6: And we'd go to Lake Oswego and we'd go to 233 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 6: the restaurants and it was fun. We'd go down to 234 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 6: the Benson Hotel. And Portland was a wonderful, thriving, quirky, 235 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 6: little weird town. It was Portland yap. And sure you 236 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 6: had the you know, the women's bookstore by Women for 237 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 6: women that was you know that Fred Armison and Kerrie 238 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 6: Brownstein were portraying, And you had all the quirkiness. You 239 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,160 Speaker 6: had the over the top coffee shops and over the 240 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 6: top crack beer shops and the the you know, very 241 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 6: opinionated people working behind the counter. But it was still 242 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,840 Speaker 6: bearable and it was safe and it was clean. And 243 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 6: then overnight it just like they picked up, you know, 244 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 6: when somebody's making a batch of something and all you 245 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 6: need is to concentrate, and so you just pour water 246 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 6: on it and you make that concentrate. It was like 247 00:15:14,480 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 6: they took the concentrate from San Francisco and they dumped 248 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 6: it into Hawthorne in Portland and then they poured water 249 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 6: on it and it's spread and it just it destroyed 250 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:33,440 Speaker 6: that city, just absolutely destroyed it. And it's tragic to 251 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 6: think because it was such a glorious, glorious, wonderful city. 252 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 6: And then a couple of years ago, a few years ago, 253 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 6: I brought a group of listeners from Houston to Portland 254 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 6: and I took them to the food park. 255 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: I wanted to see the food park. We want to 256 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 1: go across the street. 257 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:48,080 Speaker 6: And we're all at we've all gone to the food park, 258 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 6: which ends up having like zombie type people there, and 259 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 6: then we go to the park across the street whether 260 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 6: it's beautiful, and these homeless people, very aggressive homeless people, 261 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 6: come running, they chasing each other and fighting, and one 262 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 6: of them is flinging food from plates that they get. 263 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 1: Out of the trash bin. 264 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 6: And the trash bin hadn't been cleaned, so they're they're 265 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 6: taking Indian food and flinging it. And one of the 266 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 6: people in our group says they were flinging poo at 267 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 6: some point. I don't know if they were flinging pooh, 268 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 6: but they were flinging Indian food. And it's about as 269 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,080 Speaker 6: bad because it's very spicy and very smelly. 270 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: And that's what Portland's becoming. What a bummer, right, The 271 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: Michael Varies Show continues, continues, What a beautiful moment in 272 00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: American history. 273 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 6: You just told a beautiful moment for country music, the 274 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 6: outlaw country music scene. For those of you not in Texas, 275 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:46,600 Speaker 6: you can't imagine how that informs all Texas country music 276 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 6: after that, the Willie and Waylon and Leon Russell and 277 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 6: I mean even up to the fabulous Thunderbirds, and it's 278 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 6: so many things that just weave into that hole. 279 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 1: Stevie, ray Vong, everything else. 280 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 6: But we're talking about tariffs and to focus on tariffs, 281 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 6: and the left is acting like tariff's the war's going 282 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 6: to end, because we're going to require companies that if 283 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 6: you're gonna, if you're gonna, if you're not gona let 284 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 6: our product in your country, we're not gonna let your 285 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 6: product in ours without paying dearly for it. Right, And 286 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 6: you're all gonna die because of tariffs, because all you 287 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 6: really want is cheap crap. You don't care if our 288 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,920 Speaker 6: economy dies and smothers and smolders because the Chinese have 289 00:17:25,320 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 6: have have manipulated. 290 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 1: Us for this long. You don't care. 291 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 6: You just want cheap crap at the dollar store. I 292 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 6: don't believe that to be true, and I think Donald 293 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:38,679 Speaker 6: Trump knows that. So Trump hurts the globalist agenda, and 294 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:43,399 Speaker 6: the globalist agenda is about knocking America down to size 295 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 6: and bringing the other powers up so that America does 296 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 6: not have hegemony dominance in the world, which we naturally 297 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 6: would if left to the state of the natural state 298 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:58,280 Speaker 6: of the marketplace. 299 00:17:59,000 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: JD. 300 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 6: Vance was speaking during a News Nation town hall with 301 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 6: Chris Cuomo during the campaign, and I want you to 302 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,439 Speaker 6: listen carefully to what JD says. 303 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:12,600 Speaker 1: I think this is important. 304 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 8: You have to qualify the understanding based on what we 305 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 8: just saw with those twenty plus Nobel X winning economists 306 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,879 Speaker 8: who said, if you do tariffs the wrong way, you 307 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 8: wind up spiking prices here that get passed on to 308 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 8: the consumer, and that was also additive to inflation. And 309 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:35,200 Speaker 8: they criticize the Trump administration and its future plan for 310 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 8: being at risk of doing exactly that. 311 00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 9: Sure, So I know that's a criticism that's been out there. 312 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 9: Here here's why I don't buy it. So, first of all, 313 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 9: these are the same experts that said shipping our entire 314 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:48,240 Speaker 9: manufacturing industry to China, to East Asia, to Mexico would 315 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 9: lead to greater American prosperity. 316 00:18:50,200 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 1: They were wrong. It was a mistake to do that. 317 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,480 Speaker 9: We followed their advice, and now frankly, a lot of 318 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 9: Americans can't afford a good life, can at a middle 319 00:18:57,280 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 9: class wage because we listened to some of those very 320 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 9: same peace people. But the more immediate reason why I 321 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 9: don't buy that argument, Chris is, look, Donald Trump is 322 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 9: already president, right, These are just plans and proposals. He 323 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 9: was already president, and when he was president, he did 324 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 9: use tariffs, right, And you had the fastest rising take 325 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 9: home pay in forty years in this country. You had 326 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 9: inflation at one point five percent. So, look, you don't 327 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 9: have to agree with everything I say or everything that 328 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 9: Donald Trump says, but when you actually look at the 329 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 9: policy accomplishments, we had low inflation and rising take home pay, and. 330 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: I think tariffs were a big part of that. 331 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 6: Many Americans resigned themselves. I hear it, I hear I 332 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 6: read my emails every day. Many Americans resigned themselves to 333 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 6: the idea that American manufacturing he's dead, that we're no 334 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 6: longer in manufacturing power. It's not what we do, we 335 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 6: don't do it anymore, and we're never going to do 336 00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:52,719 Speaker 6: it anymore. Many Americans are resigned to the slow and 337 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 6: steady decline that we have witnessed over the last few decades, 338 00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,400 Speaker 6: and they see it as unavoidable. 339 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: And the reason for that. 340 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 6: People choose to assume that things are a fay at 341 00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 6: a complete a thing that is going to happen with 342 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 6: or without our pushback. People like to accept a sort 343 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 6: of destiny, a sort of preconceived. 344 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: What is the word, what is the word? I'm I'm 345 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: floundering around. 346 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:30,919 Speaker 6: But that there is a destiny to this, that it 347 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 6: is destined to be the case. 348 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: They love it to be the case. 349 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 6: That nothing can be done, nothing can be changed to 350 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 6: alter the course upon which we are traveling. 351 00:20:42,840 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: So if. 352 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 6: America has declined in manufacturing in certain industries, and they 353 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,840 Speaker 6: simply say, you can't change it. This is what we 354 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 6: had at the border, right, you can't close the border 355 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 6: it's too it's too too many, too many elements to it. 356 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,080 Speaker 6: You can't close the border. 357 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 1: A border wall won't work. They'll go over it, they'll 358 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 1: go under it. You can't close it. 359 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:08,919 Speaker 6: You can't fix the immigration problem unless you fix the 360 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,400 Speaker 6: employer problem. And nobody wants to fix the employer problem. 361 00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 6: You can't fix the employer problem, so you can't fix 362 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 6: the immigration problem. Can't fix the immigration problem until you 363 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 6: fix the countries that people are fleeing from. Can't fix 364 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 6: the immigration problem until you get people to stop hiring 365 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 6: cheap labor outside the labor laws because it costs less 366 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,400 Speaker 6: than they can work them like slaves. You can't fix 367 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 6: the border because these people are too clever. They have 368 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 6: tunnels and they're great pole vaulters, and you'll never stop 369 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 6: them from coming. You can't fix it because you don't 370 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,919 Speaker 6: you have you can't build that many miles of wall, 371 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 6: and the border is too broad, and too many people 372 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 6: are coming, and there's the coyotes are too clever, and 373 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 6: the cartels are too powerful, and the border patrols too lazy, 374 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:52,239 Speaker 6: and you can't stop it. 375 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:53,359 Speaker 1: You just can't stop it. 376 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 6: It's going to happen, and you might as well just 377 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 6: accept it, and we're going to become Mexico and it's 378 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 6: all going to be crap and there's nothing you can 379 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,719 Speaker 6: do about it. So enjoy your off in the meantime 380 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 6: because you can't do anything to stop it. That was 381 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 6: not just a Democrat mindset. That was a mindset of 382 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:12,800 Speaker 6: many Americans. I heard it. It is a resignation born 383 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 6: of failure, a loss of hope, a loss of optimism, 384 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 6: a loss of agency. See, I'm not responsible for the decline. 385 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:27,640 Speaker 6: The decline is inevitable. So what am I going to do? 386 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 6: Why bother myself about it? In fact, if that parade 387 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 6: was rolling through the parade of America's decline, they stepped 388 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 6: up and i'm sorry, stepped down from the sidewalk and 389 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 6: joined it. They added to the momentum. And these people 390 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 6: would argue with me, they're listeners, they're nice people. They're 391 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 6: otherwise nice people. Now they're losers. And I don't say 392 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 6: that is they're not criminals, they're not immoral, they're simply 393 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 6: people with a loser's mentality. There are people with a 394 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 6: loser's mentality. 395 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 1: You can really like your. 396 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 6: Team's head coach, but he's not a winner, and he's 397 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,040 Speaker 6: never gonna win. And you've noticed in his career he 398 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,160 Speaker 6: never does win. He's not a winner, he's a loser. 399 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 6: There are people who have a loser's mentality. They always 400 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 6: have and they always will. They don't want to compete 401 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 6: because if you compete, you might lose. And they've lost. 402 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 6: They've tried, they ran the race and came in last. 403 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 6: So if you're already coming in last every time you 404 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 6: run a race, then you just don't try, and you 405 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,879 Speaker 6: make a show of sauntering instead, and that way nobody 406 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:35,200 Speaker 6: thinks you tried and lost. So there was a resignation 407 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 6: to many Americans to the idea that we are in decline. 408 00:23:39,880 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 6: And Barack Obama would say that it's so good, it's 409 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 6: all right. We just don't manufacture anymore. And people say 410 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 6: that what's he going to do? Wave them magic won, 411 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 6: what's Trump going to do? He says he's gonna do something. 412 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 3: Well, he has and he closed the border and guess 413 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,399 Speaker 3: when it worked. But you've got to be you've got 414 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 3: to be a risk taker, an entrepreneur, you've got to 415 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 3: be an innovator. You've got to be fearless, you've got 416 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 3: to be bold. And that's where we're going with this. 417 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: Book, Michael. 418 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 6: You will often ask me what I'm reading or what 419 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 6: they should read, and I will tell you. I share 420 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 6: with a friend of mine who also does a nationally 421 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,959 Speaker 6: syndicated show named Jesse Kelly. Jesse and I are good 422 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 6: buddies and we swap ideas and guests and theories and 423 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,959 Speaker 6: things like that, and he as well, is a bit 424 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:42,040 Speaker 6: of a nut for history, especially World War two era history, 425 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:45,480 Speaker 6: and one of the things. And there's a point to 426 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 6: this in case you're wondering. There's always a point. I 427 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:50,320 Speaker 6: just sometimes forget to make it or don't. I don't 428 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 6: make it successfully. I like to use metaphors and analogies 429 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 6: and anecdotes to make a point. But just know I'm 430 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 6: not randomly talking. I'm trying to make a point. So 431 00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 6: the point on this one is going to be made 432 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:07,439 Speaker 6: by if you were to study the German occupation of 433 00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 6: Poland during World War Two. The Poles don't get their credit. 434 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 6: The polls had a greater influence on how World War 435 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:25,119 Speaker 6: Two swung then history has given them. And I would 436 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 6: like that to change because it's it's the Germans had 437 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 6: a piece of equipment. It was a military technology and 438 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 6: it was known as Enigma, and it would encrypt their 439 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 6: radio transmissions. So remember, I know you know this, but 440 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 6: it's not intuitive. There's no cell phone, right, there's no Internet, 441 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 6: there's no email, there's no all these and you've got 442 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 6: to communicate, and communication is every everything. You know, you 443 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 6: go back to Lincoln writing the letter to McClellan or 444 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 6: to mead to advance or to retreat as the waters recede, 445 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 6: or to surround General Lee here, or to pull back 446 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,439 Speaker 6: because Lee has the strong position, you know those you 447 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 6: can wipe out your army or you can fail to 448 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 6: wipe out your opponent. And so the Germans had a 449 00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 6: far flown military enterprise going. I mean, it's quite remarkable 450 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 6: and astounding what they were able to accomplish. It's also frightening. 451 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:41,200 Speaker 6: It is frightening to think what the German people did. 452 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:46,879 Speaker 6: They are a mighty, mighty people, and had Hitler not 453 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 6: been the chancellor and instead someone else, that country might 454 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 6: have taken a very different direction. They were disgruntled financially, 455 00:26:56,640 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 6: there's no doubt, but the intellectual might of that nation, 456 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:09,880 Speaker 6: the innovation, the ability to both invent and manufacture two 457 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 6: different skill sets. The Japanese are not nearly as or 458 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 6: the Chinese. The Chinese and Japanese are not as inventive 459 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:23,440 Speaker 6: of people, but they're very good at replication. They're incredibly 460 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,200 Speaker 6: good at replication. That's why they tend to be manufacturers 461 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:29,119 Speaker 6: of products they don't invent. 462 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,239 Speaker 1: Whereas the Western. 463 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 6: Mind, if I'm painting with a very broad brush, tends 464 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 6: to be more creative. The Asians are not known, I think, 465 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 6: to the same degree as creative. The Western mind tends 466 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 6: to be more creative, but at least in the modern era, 467 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 6: less good at replication, duplication and the light. But in 468 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 6: any case, back to Germany. So, Germany has this far 469 00:27:54,240 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 6: flong empire and they're spread from Dunkirk to Russia into Africa. 470 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 1: Uh uh. 471 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 6: And they're in the seas, and they're they're on the seas, 472 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:09,159 Speaker 6: in the air, on land. It's it's it's a spectacular, amazing, 473 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:14,560 Speaker 6: overwhelming military prowess, the likes of which we'd never seen before. 474 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 6: And and might I mentioned frightening. I study this today 475 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 6: and I think how close we were to losing it 476 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,159 Speaker 6: all because of the power, the might of Germany. And 477 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 6: that doesn't even begin to get into Japan. But anyway, so, 478 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,360 Speaker 6: but the Germans had to communicate. They had to tell 479 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:38,040 Speaker 6: Rammel whether to attack or pull back, whether to uh, 480 00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 6: are we gonna are we gonna close off their forces here? 481 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 6: I still everything I read about Dunkirk. Dunkirk is a blunder. 482 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 6: The Germans had the Brits and and you know, some 483 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 6: Norwegians and French and and the like. But they had 484 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:57,520 Speaker 6: the Brits pinned down at Dunkirk. It was checkmate, it 485 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 6: was check mate if the attack, but they didn't, and 486 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 6: they gave time for this. It's one of the most 487 00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 6: inspiring stories of of all of World War Two, and 488 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 6: in fact it's one of the most inspiring stories of 489 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 6: human history. The fact that the Brits, the Churchill calls out, look, 490 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 6: if you have a boat, go save our boys. Their 491 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,840 Speaker 6: pinned down at Dunkirk on the west coast of Europe. 492 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 6: There pinned down, and Hitler's gonna annihilate them. And you know, 493 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 6: everybody has a different opinion about why he didn't, but 494 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 6: there's no doubt it was from his If you were 495 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 6: reviewing him and grading him, it was one of the 496 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 6: worst blunders of the war. He could have he could 497 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 6: have could have finished the Brits, not not technically but 498 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 6: close enough, and he didn't do it. So anyway, we 499 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 6: don't know exactly why he didn't. So communication is key. 500 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 6: Back to that point, the polls created in the underground world. 501 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 6: They created a device that could hack Enigma, and that hack, uh, 502 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 6: that hack allowed I think they call it Bletchley Park, 503 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 6: allowed Churchill and in fact the Americans, but Churchill to 504 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 6: intercept radio transmissions and to know what the Germans were 505 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 6: going to do before they did it, giving him an 506 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 6: incredible advantage, giving giving the West an incredible advantage. Now 507 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 6: I say all that a little lengthdy, sorry, but it's 508 00:30:33,840 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 6: important to understand that the Polish resistance, there were polls 509 00:30:38,560 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 6: who were passing messages every night to keep. 510 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: This thing going. 511 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 6: There during VS in Vichy, France that was occupied France 512 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 6: by the Germans, there was an underground resistance. There were 513 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:58,040 Speaker 6: people being murdered by the Germans because they were working 514 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,480 Speaker 6: to undermine the German government. 515 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,520 Speaker 1: As civilians. 516 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 6: They might have been a baker by day and they would, 517 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 6: you know, they would put a message in the bread 518 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 6: that would be passed and it would get to London. 519 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:11,120 Speaker 6: And these were how the spies were the fact is, 520 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,080 Speaker 6: very few people were part of either of those undergrounds. 521 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 6: They're legendary undergrounds, the Polish Underground and the French Underground 522 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 6: Vichy France Underground. The French Underground is better known because 523 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 6: the French did a better job of telling their story. 524 00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 6: But I'll bet you over ninety percent of the population 525 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 6: was not involved in that. There was only a few. 526 00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 6: There are very few people fighting for this country. Talk 527 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 6: radio listeners are. 528 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: In that view. 529 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 6: There are very few people who understand the stakes of 530 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 6: what's happening in this country. You see what happened with 531 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 6: Wisconsin yesterday, and so the Wall Street Journal said it 532 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 6: was a repudiation, a rebuff of Trump. It wasn't a 533 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 6: rebuff of Trump. Those weren't Trump voters who voted against Schimmel. 534 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 6: Those weren't Trump voters who voted against Trump. Those were 535 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 6: Trump voters who stayed home. Because our voters only show 536 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 6: up when they're frightened. So when people say, why do 537 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 6: you play AOC clips, why do you play Jasmine Procket clips, 538 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 6: Why do you play the most leftist, crazy, wacky communist ideas, 539 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 6: why do you play Bernie Sanders clips? Because our people, 540 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 6: not you, but your neighbors. Our people don't activate. They 541 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 6: don't motivate unless they are frightened, and so we have 542 00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 6: to frighten them. There we are, we have to frighten them, 543 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 6: and I'm sorry, you've got to be frightened in the meantime. 544 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 6: But a lot of people don't show up to vote 545 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 6: unless they are certain that it's the end times. That's 546 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 6: why people showed up and voted for Trump. They realize 547 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 6: that if we lost that election, it was the end 548 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 6: of our society. So they'll get off their ass and 549 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 6: go vote. Otherwise they wouldn't
